Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of riverbank slope protection technology, specifically relating to a reinforced ecological interlocking brick. Background Technology

[0002] In existing technologies, dam slope protection in water conservancy projects mostly relies on traditional methods such as natural masonry or cast-in-place concrete. However, each of these methods has significant limitations. Specifically, using natural masonry for slope protection is not only difficult to construct and hard to control precisely, but also has a long construction period and unsatisfactory slope protection results. Furthermore, the quarrying of natural masonry can damage the natural ecological environment, hindering sustainable development. On the other hand, cast-in-place concrete slope protection also faces many challenges, such as complex construction processes, low efficiency, lack of sufficient flexibility to adapt to foundation deformation, and susceptibility to cracking and suspension, making repair difficult once damaged. More importantly, both masonry and cast-in-place concrete slope protection require a certain curing time, which delays the realization of project benefits.

[0003] Patent No. CN104846781A discloses an ecological interlocking block and an ecological interlocking slope protection construction method. The ecological interlocking block includes a block body with wedge-shaped tenons (2) symmetrically arranged on the left and right sides of the block body, and connecting grooves symmetrically arranged on the front and rear sides of the block body. The block body has two through holes inside. The specific construction steps are as follows: slope leveling treatment - composite geomembrane laying - C20 plain concrete foundation pouring - ecological interlocking brick laying - capping stone and slope top construction. The beneficial effects of this utility model are: each interlocking brick block has a super strong connection with the six nearby blocks, and still maintains a high overall stability under the scouring of river water; as plants grow in the central hole of the interlocking brick block, it can not only improve the durability and stability of the slope protection, but also play a role in protecting the river ecological environment; it can integrate slope protection, ecological restoration and decoration, and the structure has many advantages such as stability, economy and convenient construction.

[0004] The above technical solution also has the following shortcomings:

[0005] 1) The through hole in the middle of the interlocking block for planting plants is a vertical rectangular hole, which is easily affected by water flow, causing the plants to fall off and reducing the survival rate of the plants.

[0006] 2) The wedge-shaped tenon and groove of the interlocking block are perpendicular to the cut of the surrounding groove and have a smooth surface. After a long period of water erosion, the interlocking bricks and the nearby interlocking bricks are prone to loosening, which can lead to slope damage or even collapse.

[0007] 3) The surface of the interlocking blocks is smooth, and the sliding force of the interlocking blocks and the friction between the interlocking bricks and the soil are easily unbalanced, causing the interlocking brick slope protection to be unstable.

[0008] The information disclosed in the background section above is only used to enhance the understanding of the background art of the art described herein. Therefore, the background art may contain certain information that would not be considered part of the prior art by those skilled in the art. Utility Model Content

[0009] To address the shortcomings of the existing technology, this utility model proposes a reinforced ecological interlocking brick.

[0010] The technical solution adopted in this utility model is as follows:

[0011] A reinforced eco-friendly interlocking brick, comprising:

[0012] The brick body is quadrilateral, and the brick body includes a long side and a short side;

[0013] The wedge-shaped tenons are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the long side of the brick. At both ends of the wedge-shaped tenons, the brick forms a tenon joint protrusion. When the bricks are laid and connected to form an integral pavement, the tenon joint protrusion is accommodated in the wedge-shaped tenons on the adjacent brick to form a lock.

[0014] The planting hole includes a first planting hole opened in the middle of the brick body, and grooves opened on both sides of the brick body in the width direction; the first planting hole is a closed structure, the grooves are a semi-open structure, and the grooves of adjacent brick bodies are joined together to form a second planting hole.

[0015] The fixing nails are conical in shape and are respectively set below the four tenon protrusions on the bottom plane of the brick.

[0016] In a preferred embodiment, the opening positions of the first planting hole on the top plane and the bottom plane of the brick are offset by the width of one first planting hole; the opening positions of the second planting hole on the top plane and the bottom plane of the brick are offset by the width of one first planting hole.

[0017] In the preferred embodiment, the wedge-shaped tenon is a dovetail groove.

[0018] In a preferred embodiment, the brick body is provided with anchoring holes in the middle. When the slope is steep, glass fiber rods are added to the anchoring holes and inserted into the soil for reinforcement.

[0019] In a preferred embodiment, the wedge-shaped tenon groove and the edge of the tenon protrusion on one side of the brick body are set as convex arc edges, and the wedge-shaped tenon groove and the edge of the tenon protrusion on the other side of the brick body are set as concave arc edges. When adjacent brick bodies are connected, the convex arc edges and the concave arc edges are fitted together.

[0020] Furthermore, the upper and lower edges of the concave and convex arc edges form a 1 / 4 arc with a diameter of 30mm.

[0021] In the preferred technical solution, when laying eco-friendly interlocking bricks, the wedge-shaped grooves and tenon protrusions should have the side with the convex arc edge facing upwards.

[0022] Overall, compared with the prior art, the reinforced eco-friendly interlocking brick provided by this utility model has the following specific technical effects:

[0023] 1. The planting holes of the interlocking bricks were changed from vertical rectangular holes to slanted holes, making it less likely for the plants to fall off and improving the survival rate of the plants.

[0024] 2. The wedge-shaped tenon groove and the tenon protrusion of the interlocking brick are changed to have a convex arc and a concave arc. By interlocking the concave and convex of adjacent interlocking bricks, the lateral stability is increased, which solves the problem of loosening that is easily caused by the vertical misalignment of interlocking bricks with nearby interlocking bricks, thereby strengthening the stability of the slope.

[0025] 3. Add conical fixing nails to the lower part of the interlocking bricks to solve the problem of easy imbalance between the sliding force of the interlocking bricks and the friction between the interlocking bricks and the soil, thereby increasing the stability of the interlocking brick slope protection while fixing the position of the interlocking bricks.

[0032] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this application clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this application, and not all of the embodiments. The components of the embodiments of this application described and shown in the accompanying drawings can be arranged and designed in various different configurations. Therefore, the following detailed description of the embodiments of this application provided in the accompanying drawings is not intended to limit the scope of the claimed application, but merely represents selected embodiments of this application. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this application without inventive effort are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0033] This embodiment provides a reinforced eco-friendly interlocking brick, see reference. Figure 1-5 ,include:

[0034] Brick 1, which is quadrilateral, includes a long side and a short side. This basic shape of brick 1 lays a solid foundation for the subsequent interlocking design.

[0035] Wedge-shaped tenons 2 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the long side of the brick 1. At both ends of the wedge-shaped tenons 2, the brick 1 forms tenon protrusions 3. When multiple bricks 1 are laid and connected to each other to form a whole pavement, the tenon of one brick 1 will be received by the wedge-shaped locking structure of the adjacent brick 1, forming a stable locking connection. This connection method ensures a high degree of connection stability between bricks 1, without relying on traditional adhesives such as cement, effectively reducing costs.

[0036] The planting hole includes a first planting hole 4 opened in the middle of the brick body 1, and semi-open grooves 5 opened on both sides along the width direction of the brick body 1; the first planting hole 4 is a closed structure, and the grooves 5 are semi-open structures. When adjacent brick bodies 1 are laid, their grooves 5 are connected to each other to form a second planting hole 6.

[0037] The sloping design of the planting holes allows for both direct planting and seeding, enabling the vegetation roots to anchor and reinforce the slope, thereby improving its overall stability. The sloping structure also effectively prevents the vegetation material from being washed away by water, thus increasing the survival rate of the vegetation.

[0038] The fixing nails 7 are conical in shape and are respectively set below the four tenon positions on the bottom plane of the brick body 1. This facilitates the brick body 1 to penetrate into the soil, achieves precise positioning, and prevents it from sliding during application, thereby enhancing the stability of the paving.

[0039] In summary, this utility model, through its innovative wedge-shaped locking mechanism, vegetation growth hole design, and fixing nail 7 device, achieves an enhanced ecological interlocking system for paving tiles. This not only improves the overall stability of the paving surface but also saves construction costs and promotes the friendly development of the ecological environment.

[0040] In an optional implementation, the design of the planting holes is further refined, specifically:

[0041] The offset design of the first planting hole 4: The opening positions of the first planting hole 4 on the top and bottom planes of the brick body 1 are intentionally offset by the width of the first planting hole 4 itself. This design not only increases the depth of the planting hole, but also provides a wider space for the roots to develop, which helps to enhance the soil-fixing capacity of the vegetation.

[0042] The offset design of the second vegetation hole 6: Similarly, when adjacent bricks 1 are laid together to form the second vegetation hole 6, the opening position of this hole on the top and bottom planes of the brick 1 also exhibits the same offset as the first vegetation hole 4, that is, the width of one first vegetation hole 4. This design ensures the continuity and consistency of the vegetation hole system throughout the paving surface, further enhancing the ecological protection effect of the slope.

[0043] In an optional embodiment, the specific form of the wedge-shaped tenon 2 is further disclosed, specifically:

[0044] The wedge-shaped tenon 2 is designed in the shape of a dovetail groove. With its unique wedge-shaped structure and gradually widening opening, the dovetail groove ensures a highly stable locking structure when the tenon protrusion 3 (i.e., the tenon) is accommodated within the dovetail groove of an adjacent brick 1. This design not only enhances the connection strength between bricks 1 but also effectively limits the potential displacement of bricks 1 in different directions after installation. Thanks to the superior stability of the dovetail groove structure, the eco-friendly interlocking bricks of this invention do not require the use of traditional adhesives such as cement for fixing during installation. This improvement not only simplifies the construction process and reduces construction costs but also helps reduce environmental pollution, achieving the goal of green construction.

[0045] In an optional embodiment, an anchoring hole 8 is specially designed in the middle of the brick body 1. This design is intended to address situations with a large slope and relatively poor soil stability. Through the anchoring hole 8, reinforcing materials can be easily inserted, thereby further enhancing the connection strength between the brick body 1 and the soil, and improving the overall stability of the pavement. Furthermore, when the slope is large, fiberglass rods can be inserted into the anchoring hole 8 and penetrate deep into the soil. Fiberglass rods, with their high strength, corrosion resistance, and lightweight properties, can effectively enhance the tensile and shear strength within the soil, thereby resisting potential slope sliding or collapse. In addition, fiberglass rods also have good toughness, allowing them to adapt to certain soil deformations and maintain long-term stability.

[0046] In an optional implementation, the edge morphology of the wedge-shaped tenon groove 2 and the tenon protrusion 3 of the brick body 1 was designed to improve the lateral stability of the eco-interlocking bricks, specifically:

[0047] On one side of brick 1, the edges of its wedge-shaped tenon groove 2 and tenon protrusion 3 are cleverly designed as convex arc edges 9; while on the other side of brick 1, they are correspondingly designed as concave arc edges 10. When adjacent bricks 1 are connected, the convex arc edges 9 and concave arc edges 10 can fit together perfectly, forming a tight interlocking structure. This design not only increases the contact area between bricks 1, but also significantly improves lateral stability, effectively solving the problem of loosening that easily occurs when interlocking bricks are misaligned with nearby interlocking bricks.

[0048] Furthermore, to further optimize this design, the upper and lower edges of the convex arc edge 9 and the concave arc edge 10 are precisely designed as quarter-circle arcs with a diameter of 30mm. This detailed design not only ensures the tightness and stability of the fit, but also makes the brick 1 easier to align and fix during laying, further improving construction efficiency and the overall quality of the paving.

[0049] In an optional implementation, considering that the inclined planting holes of the ecological interlocking bricks need to be tilted upwards after installation to better guide water flow, reduce erosion, and provide better growth conditions for vegetation, it is essential to ensure that the design direction of the wedge-shaped groove 2 and the tenon protrusion 3 of the brick 1 is consistent with the tilt direction of the planting hole during installation. To meet these requirements, it is stipulated during construction that the side with the convex arc edge 9 should face upwards when laying the ecological interlocking bricks. This ensures that the convex arc edge 9 and the concave arc edge 10 can be correctly fitted when the bricks 1 are connected, and also allows the planting holes to be set according to the predetermined tilt direction, thereby achieving the best ecological protection and greening effect.

[0050] The above-described embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model, and are not intended to limit it. Although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some of the technical features. Such modifications or substitutions do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model.
