Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to an aqueduct complex. Background Technology
[0002] An aqueduct is an elevated water conveyance structure that crosses rivers, canals, roads, and gullies to transport water. It is one of the most widely used intersecting structures in canal systems. In addition to transporting canal water for farmland irrigation, urban domestic water supply, and industrial water supply across watersheds, aqueducts also provide drainage and flow guidance.
[0003] However, existing aqueducts are all open designs, with long paving routes spanning multiple regions. Local water level rise sections require supporting booster pump stations, and in case of emergencies, overnight operations are necessary. It is evident that current aqueducts suffer from severe water evaporation and limited functionality. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to solve the problems of existing aqueducts, such as severe water evaporation and limited functionality.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides an aqueduct complex, including a trough body, in which a floating component is provided. The floating component is composed of multiple floating airbags spliced together. The two transverse sides of the floating component are connected to two opposite inner sidewalls of the trough body by traction straps.
[0006] The beneficial effects of this utility model are: it can effectively reduce water vapor evaporation on the water surface, avoid water waste, effectively isolate snow accumulation in winter, increase water flow temperature, help ensure a higher water flow, increase the photovoltaic installation area, provide power for the aqueduct or surrounding electrical equipment, and especially can effectively assist the power supply of the water level lifting station.
[0007] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Attached Figure Description

[0009] Explanation of reference numerals in the attached drawings: 1. Tank body; 2. Floating component; 3. Floating airbag; 4. Pulling belt; 5. Baffle bar; 6. Receiver compartment; 7. Winch; 8. Snap-on cover. Detailed Implementation
[0010] To further illustrate the technical means and effects of this utility model in achieving its intended purpose, the following detailed description of the specific implementation methods, structural features, and effects of this utility model is provided in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments.
[0011] This embodiment provides a Figure 1The aqueduct complex shown includes a channel body 1, within which a floating component 2 is installed. This floating component 2 is composed of multiple floating airbags 3 (or other buoyant objects such as floating barrels or floating boards). The two lateral sides of the floating component 2 are connected to opposite inner walls of the channel body 1 via tie straps 4. This effectively reduces the exposed water surface area, significantly reducing water vapor evaporation and conserving water resources, especially in arid regions where the water-saving effect is more pronounced.
[0012] Depend on Figure 1 As can be seen, the bottom of the trough 1 is equipped with multiple baffles 5 evenly arranged laterally, located downstream of the floating component 2, to prevent the floating component 2 from flowing downstream. In this way, the floating component 2 can be set in sections, and the space between adjacent floating components 2 also leaves sufficient water vapor dissipation channels, avoiding the bulging phenomenon caused by high temperature water vapor. That is, the floating component 2 is lifted and lowered, then lifted and lowered again, forming up and down fluctuations, which can effectively reduce the impact damage of high temperature and high pressure steam on the floating component 2 and ensure the stable operation of the aqueduct.
[0013] In winter, when the water surface does not need to be covered, the float 2 is deflated and wound into the containment chamber 6 by a winch 7 installed on the outside of the tank 1. The winch 7 is fixed inside the containment chamber 6 and is fixedly connected to the pull belt 4 on the corresponding side by a winding rope. In order to facilitate quick operation, the pull belt 4 on the opposite side is connected by a movable buckle fixed to the outer wall of the tank 1, which can be quickly connected or disconnected, improving the efficiency of operation.
[0014] To enhance the functionality of the aqueduct, this embodiment includes a snap-fit cover 8 on the top of the receiving chamber 6, with a photovoltaic panel mounted on its outer surface. This photovoltaic panel is connected to a junction box installed on the outer wall of the receiving chamber 6. Similarly, an LED light is installed on the top of the baffle 5, electrically connected to a battery inside the junction box via a circuit board. This provides illumination for convenient nighttime operations.
[0015] The above description, in conjunction with specific preferred embodiments, provides a further detailed explanation of the present invention; however, it should not be construed that the specific implementation of the present invention is limited to these descriptions. For those skilled in the art, several simple deductions or substitutions can be made without departing from the concept of the present invention; all such deductions or substitutions should be considered to fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
