Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of flood control facilities technology, and in particular relates to intelligent water-blocking panels. Background Technology
[0002] Flood barriers, a type of flood control facility, are temporary or fixed protective devices used to prevent floodwater or water accumulation from entering buildings or specific areas. They are typically made of aluminum alloy, stainless steel, or high-strength composite materials. By inserting or fixing them into door frames, windows, or other entrances, the barriers work in conjunction with sealing strips to form a watertight barrier, effectively blocking water intrusion. They are easy to install and quick to dismantle, and are widely used in flood protection at underground garage entrances, shop entrances, and low-lying areas. They are an important measure to cope with rainstorms and flood disasters.
[0003] In practice, existing technologies typically require manual placement of flood barriers at the entrance of underground parking garages to prevent rainwater intrusion during heavy rain or flooding. However, due to the reliance on manual operation, the response time may be delayed, resulting in rainwater rapidly flowing into the underground parking garage and failing to effectively prevent water accumulation.
[0004] Based on this, the present invention designs an intelligent water baffle to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of this utility model is to solve the problem that in the prior art, when rainstorms or floods occur, it is usually necessary to manually place water barriers at the entrance of underground garages to prevent rainwater from entering. However, since it relies on manual operation, the response time may be delayed, which leads to rainwater flowing into the underground garage quickly and failing to effectively prevent water accumulation. Therefore, the proposed intelligent water barrier is proposed.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:
[0007] A smart water baffle includes a base with several water inlets inside. A wall is attached to the outside of the base. A baffle is hinged to the base via a pin connector. Two elongated slots are formed inside the base. A moving device for applying driving force is fixedly connected to the elongated slots. A pushing device for applying pushing and pulling forces to the baffle is fixedly connected to the moving device. An adapter for automatically adjusting and blocking higher water levels is slidably connected inside the baffle.
[0008] As a further description of the above technical solution:
[0009] The mobile device includes a frame, which is fixedly connected to a long slot. A drive motor is connected through the frame, and a reciprocating lead screw is rotatably connected inside the frame. A threaded cap is fitted onto the reciprocating lead screw.
[0010] As a further description of the above technical solution:
[0011] The cross-section of the threaded cap is rectangular, and one side of the rectangle overlaps the inner wall of the long groove.
[0012] As a further description of the above technical solution:
[0013] The inlet is equipped with a differential pressure sensor for real-time monitoring of water pressure, and the differential pressure sensor is electrically connected to the drive motor.
[0014] As a further description of the above technical solution:
[0015] The pushing device includes a connecting plate, which is fixedly connected to a threaded cap. A rotating shaft is connected through the inside of the connecting plate, and a push rod is rotatably connected to the outside of the rotating shaft. A fixed shaft is connected through the upper part of the push rod.
[0016] As a further description of the above technical solution:
[0017] The baffle has a rectangular groove inside, and the fixed shaft is rotatably connected inside the baffle.
[0018] As a further description of the above technical solution:
[0019] The adapter includes a skateboard that is slidably connected inside a baffle, a float plate that is fixedly connected to the outside of the skateboard, and an airbag installed under the float plate.
[0020] As a further description of the above technical solution:
[0021] The slide plate and the baffle are connected by a sealing sleeve.
[0022] In summary, due to the adoption of the above technical solution, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0023] 1. In this utility model, when rainwater enters the inlet, the differential pressure sensor inside the inlet monitors the water flow pressure in real time. When the detected pressure value reaches a preset threshold, the controller starts the drive motor. The drive motor drives the reciprocating screw to rotate within the frame. The reciprocating screw drives the threaded cap to move. The threaded cap further applies a thrust to the push rod, causing the push rod to push the baffle upward. When the drive motor stops after running for a set time, the baffle quickly and effectively blocks the water flow. At the same time, the push rod provides stable support for the baffle. As the water flow gradually decreases, the differential pressure sensor controls the drive motor to run in reverse, causing the baffle to reset. When the baffle returns to the designated position, lane passage is restored without affecting vehicle entry. The entire process realizes real-time monitoring and automated blocking of water flow without manual intervention.
[0024] 2. In this utility model, when the water level rises continuously during the process of blocking the water flow, the buoyancy drives the float to move, and the float drives the slide plate to slide inside the baffle, thereby realizing the ability to freely adjust the height of the baffle when the water level is high.

[0031] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0032] Please see Figures 1-4 ;
[0033] First embodiment:
[0034] This utility model provides a technical solution: an intelligent water baffle, including a base 1, a plurality of water inlets 2 inside the base 1, a wall 3 attached to the outside of the base 1, a baffle 4 hinged to the base 1 by a pin connector, two long grooves 5 inside the base 1, a moving device 6 for applying driving force fixedly connected inside the long grooves 5, a pushing device 7 for applying pushing and pulling force to the baffle 4 fixedly connected to the moving device 6, and an adapter 8 for automatically adjusting and blocking higher water levels slidably connected inside the baffle 4.
[0035] Specifically, such as Figures 2-3 As shown, the mobile device 6 includes a frame 61, which is fixedly connected to the long groove 5. A drive motor 62 is connected through the frame 61, and a reciprocating screw 63 is rotatably connected inside the frame 61. A threaded cap 64 is sleeved on the reciprocating screw 63. The cross-section of the threaded cap 64 is rectangular, and one side of the rectangle overlaps the inner wall of the long groove 5. A differential pressure sensor is provided in the water inlet 2 to facilitate real-time monitoring of water pressure. The differential pressure sensor is electrically connected to the drive motor 62, enabling the system to respond in real time according to changes in water pressure. When the differential pressure sensor detects that the water pressure reaches a preset value, the drive motor 62 is automatically started, which drives the reciprocating screw 63 and the push rod 73 to move, thereby quickly raising the baffle 4 to block the water flow.
[0036] Furthermore, the differential pressure sensor is electrically connected to the drive motor 62. The pushing device 7 includes a connecting plate 71, which is fixedly connected to the threaded cap 64. A rotating shaft 72 is connected through the connecting plate 71, and a push rod 73 is rotatably connected to the outside of the rotating shaft 72. The coordinated action between the reciprocating screw 63, the threaded cap 64, and the connecting plate 71 ensures the stability of the baffle 4 during the lifting process. The reciprocating screw 63 drives the threaded cap 64 to move along a fixed trajectory by rotating. The rectangular design of the threaded cap 64 overlaps with the inner wall of the long groove 5, effectively preventing deviation. At the same time, the connecting plate 71 accurately transmits the motion force of the threaded cap 64 to the push rod 73, realizing efficient force transmission.
[0037] The upper part of the push rod 73 is connected to a fixed shaft 74, and a rectangular groove is opened in the baffle 4, and the fixed shaft 74 is rotatably connected in the baffle 4.
[0038] During operation, when rainwater enters inlet 2, the differential pressure sensor inside inlet 2 monitors the water flow pressure in real time. When the detected pressure value reaches a preset threshold, the controller starts the drive motor 62. The drive motor 62 drives the reciprocating screw 63 to rotate within the frame 61. The reciprocating screw 63 drives the threaded cap 64 to move, and the threaded cap 64 further applies a thrust to the push rod 73, causing the push rod 73 to push the baffle 4 upward. When the drive motor 62 stops after running for a set time, the baffle 4 quickly and effectively blocks the water flow. At the same time, the push rod 73 provides stable support for the baffle 4. As the water flow gradually decreases, the differential pressure sensor controls the drive motor 62 to run in reverse, driving the baffle 4 to reset. When the baffle 4 returns to the designated position, lane passage is restored without affecting vehicle entry. The entire process realizes real-time monitoring and automated blocking of water flow without manual intervention.
[0039] Second embodiment:
[0040] Specifically, such as Figure 2 and Figure 4As shown, the adapter 8 includes a slide plate 81, which is slidably connected inside the baffle 4. A float plate 82 is fixedly connected to the outside of the slide plate 81. The linkage design of the slide plate 81, the float plate 82 and the baffle 4 enables the system to automatically adjust the blocking height of the baffle 4 according to the water level change. When the water level rises, the float plate 82 rises with the water level and drives the slide plate 81 to slide inside the baffle 4, thereby increasing the blocking height and adapting to the constantly changing water flow conditions.
[0041] An airbag is installed under the float plate 82. The slide plate 81 and the baffle 4 are connected by a sealing sleeve. The slide plate 81 is connected to the baffle 4 through the sealing sleeve. During the sliding process, the sealing sleeve provides stable guidance for the slide plate 81 and ensures the sealing between the slide plate 81 and the baffle 4.
[0042] During operation, as the water level rises continuously while blocking the water flow, buoyancy drives the float plate 82 to move, and the float plate 82 drives the slide plate 81 to slide within the baffle 4, thus enabling the height of the baffle 4 to be freely adjusted when the water level is high.
[0043] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or changes made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model, based on the technical solution and the inventive concept of the present utility model, should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
