[0028] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 This application provides a landscape stepping stone structure 100, which is disposed on a riverbed 200. The landscape stepping stone structure 100 includes: a base plate 110, which spans across the riverbed 200 and is embedded within the riverbed 200; a foundation stone assembly, which is disposed on the base plate 110 and spans across the riverbed 200, the foundation stone assembly including at least one foundation stone 120, the foundation stone 120 being arc-shaped and protruding from the upper surface of the base plate 110 and exposed above the water surface; and a plurality of stepping stones 130, which are spaced apart along the extension direction of the foundation stone 120 on the upper surface of the foundation stone 120.
[0029] The landscape stepping stone structure 100 includes a base slab 110, foundation stone components, and stepping stones 130. The base slab 110 extends along the width direction X of the riverbed 200 to opposite sides of the riverbed 200, thus spanning the riverbed 200. The base slab 110 is embedded within the riverbed 200 for fixation. The depth to which the base slab 110 is embedded in the riverbed 200 is determined based on calculations of the base slab 110 and the load on it, the bearing capacity of the riverbed 200, and the erosion resistance depth. The material of the base slab 110 can be concrete or embedded stone concrete. Preferably, the upper surface of the base slab 110 is flush with the riverbed 200.
[0030] A foundation stone assembly is provided on the upper surface of the base plate 110, spanning the riverbed 200. The foundation stone assembly includes at least one foundation stone 120, which extends in an arc along the upper surface of the base plate 110. The foundation stone 120 is at least partially exposed above the water surface to allow pedestrian access. The height of the foundation stone 120 above the base plate 110 is calculated to accommodate raising the water level of the riverbed 200 without causing flooding. The foundation stone 120 can be made of concrete or large boulders. When there is only one foundation stone 120, both ends of the foundation stone 120 should extend at least to near the riverbank 300, allowing pedestrians to easily access the riverbank when walking to the ends of the foundation stone 120. When there are two or more foundation stones 120, some or all of the foundation stones 120 can be distributed at intervals along the width X of the riverbed 200. The end of the foundation stone 120 closest to the riverbank 300 should extend at least to near the riverbank 300, allowing pedestrians to cross the river by successively stepping over different foundation stones 120. The distance between two adjacent foundation stones 120 should be determined based on the ability of pedestrians to step across smoothly. The curved shape of the foundation stone 120 is aesthetically pleasing, with smooth curves, which can make the appearance of the landscape stepping stone structure 100 more beautiful and provide more enjoyment for pedestrians. For example, the shape of the foundation stone 120 is in the shape of the small seal script of the Chinese character "water". Integrating traditional Chinese character culture with water culture is conducive to the promotion of traditional culture.
[0031] The upper surface of the foundation stone 120 is also provided with multiple stepping stones 130, which are spaced apart along the extension direction of the foundation stone 120. When there are two or more foundation stones 120, stepping stones 130 can be provided on only some of the foundation stones 120, or stepping stones 130 can be provided on all of the foundation stones 120. The distance between two adjacent stepping stones 130 should be determined based on the premise that pedestrians can easily step across. For example, the stepping stones 130 are 0.3m to 0.5m higher than the upper surface of the foundation stone 120, and the distance between two adjacent stepping stones 130 is 0.2m to 0.3m. The material of the stepping stones 130 can be concrete or large stones. The combination of stepping stones 130 and foundation stone 120 helps to enhance the diversity and personalization of the landscape stepping stone structure 100, thereby providing pedestrians with multiple ways to cross the river and adding to the enjoyment.
[0032] The aforementioned landscape stepping stone structure 100 features an arc-shaped base stone 120 on a base slab 110, with stepping stones 130 placed on at least one of the base stones 120. The structure is simple, easy to construct, and inexpensive. The arc-shaped base stone 120 has a beautiful shape and smooth curves. Combined with the stepping stones 130, it not only enhances the aesthetics of the landscape stepping stone structure 100 but also increases its diversity and personalization, while providing pedestrians with multiple ways to cross the river, adding to the enjoyment.
[0033] Optionally, the foundation component includes a first foundation 121 that spans the riverbed 200.
[0034] The first foundation stone 121 is arc-shaped and extends along the upper surface of the base plate 110. Both ends of the first foundation stone 121 should extend at least to near the riverbank 300, thereby spanning the riverbed 200 to allow pedestrians to cross the river laterally.
[0035] Furthermore, the two ends of the first foundation stone 121 extend to the riverbank slopes 300 on both sides of the river, so that when pedestrians walk to the end of the first foundation stone 121, they have already reached the riverbank slopes 300.
[0036] Optionally, the first cornerstone 121 is S-shaped.
[0037] The S-shaped first foundation stone 121 is aesthetically pleasing, enhances the visual appeal of the landscape stepping stone structure 100, and occupies less space on the base plate 110.
[0038] It should be noted that the S-shaped first cornerstone 121 does not mean that the first cornerstone 121 must strictly follow the shape of the letter S; it only needs to be similar in shape to the letter S.
[0039] Optionally, multiple stepping stones 130 are located on the first foundation stone 121.
[0040] The stepping stones 130 enhance the aesthetics of the first foundation stone 121, allowing pedestrians to cross the riverbed 200 by walking along the stepping stones 130.
[0041] Optionally, the foundation component also includes at least two second foundations 122, which are located on the first side of the first foundation 121, and are distributed at intervals along the width direction X of the riverbed 200, and span the riverbed 200.
[0042] The first foundation stone 121 has a first side and a second side opposite each other along the length Y direction of the riverbed 200, and the second foundation stone 122 is disposed on the first side of the first foundation stone 121. The second foundation stone 122 is arc-shaped and extends along the upper surface of the base plate 110, and at least two second foundation stones 122 are distributed at intervals along the width X direction of the riverbed 200. The end of the second foundation stone 122 closest to the riverbank 300 should extend at least close to the riverbank 300, so that pedestrians can cross the river by successively stepping over different second foundation stones 122. The distance between two adjacent second foundation stones 122 should be determined based on the premise that pedestrians can easily step across.
[0043] Optionally, the foundation component also includes at least two third foundations 123, which are located on the second side of the first foundation 121, opposite to the first side. The at least two third foundations 123 are distributed at intervals along the width direction X of the riverbed 200 and span the riverbed 200.
[0044] The third foundation stone 123 is located on the second side of the first foundation stone 121. The third foundation stone 123 is arc-shaped and extends along the upper surface of the base plate 110. At least two third foundation stones 123 are spaced apart along the width X direction of the riverbed 200. The end of the third foundation stone 123 closest to the riverbank 300 should extend at least close to the riverbank 300, allowing pedestrians to cross the river by successively stepping over different third foundation stones 123. The distance between two adjacent third foundation stones 123 should be determined based on the ability of pedestrians to cross smoothly. The third foundation stone 123 and the second foundation stone 122 are respectively located on both sides of the first foundation stone 121, which makes the landscape stepping stone structure 100 more aesthetically pleasing and provides more walking routes for pedestrians, allowing more pedestrians to pass simultaneously.
[0045] Optionally, both the second cornerstone 122 and the third cornerstone 123 are C-shaped, with the arc directions of two adjacent second cornerstones 122 being opposite, and the arc directions of two adjacent third cornerstones 123 being opposite.
[0046] The C-shaped second cornerstone 122 and third cornerstone 123 are aesthetically pleasing and can enhance the visual appeal of the landscape stepping stone structure 100.
[0047] It should be noted that the C-shape of the second and third cornerstones 122 and 123 does not mean that they must strictly follow the shape of the letter C; they only need to approximate the shape of the letter C. The opposite curvature directions of two adjacent second cornerstones 122 mean that one of them bends towards the first side of the first cornerstone 121, and the other bends towards the second side of the first cornerstone 121. Similarly, the opposite curvature directions of two adjacent third cornerstones 123 have the same meaning.
[0048] Furthermore, the number of second stepping stones 122 and third stepping stones 123 is equal, and along the length Y of the riverbed 200, the curvature directions of the opposite second stepping stones 122 and third stepping stones 123 are the same (i.e., curving towards the same side of the first stepping stone 121). This arrangement makes the overall structure of the landscape stepping stone structure 100 more harmonious and aesthetically pleasing.
[0049] Optionally, the first foundation stone 121 includes at least two arc-shaped portions 1211 connected in sequence. Both arc-shaped portions 1211 are C-shaped, and the arc directions of two adjacent arc-shaped portions 1211 are opposite. The number of arc-shaped portions 1211, the second foundation stone 122, and the third foundation stone 123 are equal and their positions correspond one-to-one. The arc directions of the corresponding arc-shaped portions 1211, the second foundation stone 122, and the third foundation stone 123 are the same.
[0050] The fact that the curvature directions of two adjacent arc-shaped sections 1211 are opposite means that one of the two adjacent arc-shaped sections 1211 bends towards the first side of the first base stone 121, and the other bends towards the second side of the first base stone 121. This arrangement creates a serpentine, meandering first base stone 121. A second base stone 122 and a third base stone 123 are respectively placed on both sides of each arc-shaped section 1211, and the arc-shaped section 1211, the second base stone 122, and the third base stone 123 all bend towards the same side of the first base stone 121. This arrangement creates three serpentine, meandering paths on the base slab 110 for pedestrians to pass through, and the three paths extend in roughly the same direction, making the overall structure of the landscape stepping stone structure 100 more harmonious and aesthetically pleasing.
[0051] Please refer to the reference. Figure 3 The riverbed 200 has upward-sloping riverbanks 300 on both sides along its width X. After leaving the water, pedestrians need to walk up the riverbanks 300 to the top 310. To facilitate pedestrian access, the landscape stepping stone structure 100 may optionally include two sets of steps 140 respectively set on the two riverbanks 300. These two sets of steps 140 are essentially two sets of steps laid on the riverbanks 300. The lower end of each step 140 connects to the end of the first foundation stone 121, and the upper end extends to the top 310 of the riverbank 300. After descending from the first foundation stone 121, pedestrians can walk up the steps 140 to the top 310 of the riverbank 300.
[0052] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this application and is not intended to limit this application. Various modifications and variations can be made to this application by those skilled in the art. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this application should be included within the protection scope of this application.
