Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of landscape pool technology, and in particular to a cascading landscape pool. Background Technology

[0002] In some existing urban landscapes, cascading water features are designed. These features consist of a base constructed from processed rock or building materials, with the pool itself surrounding the base. Some pools are also lined with pebbles. During operation, a pump draws water to the top of the base, from which it flows down the surface into the pool. The pebbles filter the water, preventing impurities from seeping down. Water in these features can be reused, reducing water consumption.

[0003] In actual operation, it was found that when water falls from the top of the pedestal onto the pool, it creates splashes, causing some water to spray onto the ground around the pool's perimeter. This is especially noticeable in some landscape pools where the water level is very low, sometimes even level with or below the paved stones. In these cases, the falling water directly impacts the stones, making the splashes even more pronounced. When water splashes onto the ground around the pool, it makes the area damp, affecting its appearance and making it prone to moss growth. People walking near the pool are also more likely to get their shoes and trousers wet, and there is a higher risk of slipping and falling, posing a safety hazard. Utility Model Content

[0028] Reference Figure 1-6A cascading landscape pool includes a pool body 10, a base 20, a stone filter structure 30, a first enclosure 41, and a conveying assembly 50. The seat 20 is disposed inside the pool 10. The outer side wall of the seat 20 is spaced apart from the inner side wall of the pool 10 to form an upward-opening water storage cavity 11 between the inner side wall of the pool 10 and the outer side wall of the seat 20. The water storage cavity 11 is arranged around the seat 20. The stone particle filter structure 30 is disposed in the upper part of the inner cavity of the water storage cavity 11. The first enclosure plate 41 is disposed on the outer side of the seat 20. The first enclosure plate 41 is spaced apart from the outer side wall of the seat 20 to form a protective cavity 411 between the inner side wall of the first enclosure plate 41 and the outer side wall of the seat 20. The top of the first enclosure plate 41 is higher than the top edge of the pool 10. The bottom of the first enclosure plate 41 is provided with a water inlet 412. The water inlet 412 is not higher than the top edge of the stone particle filter structure 30, so that the water inlet 412 is covered by the stone particle filter structure 30. The conveying assembly 50 is used to convey water in the water storage cavity 11 to the top of the seat 20.

[0029] During construction, a foundation trench is first excavated on the ground, and a pool body 10 is built inside the trench. After the pool body 10 passes the waterproof test, the base body 20 and other structures are constructed and related equipment is installed to form the cascading landscape pool. When the landscape pool is in operation, water is transported to the top of the base body 20 through the conveying component 50. By controlling the water flow rate, the water flows down the surface of the base body 20 and falls. The falling water flows through the protective cavity 411 and the water inlet 412 in sequence and then enters the stone particle filter structure 30 in the water storage cavity 11. The water filtered by the stone particle filter structure 30 can be transported back to the top of the base body 20 by the conveying component 50.

[0030] When water flows along the surface of the seat 20 and falls to a low position, the resulting splashing water is confined within the protective cavity 411, preventing water from splashing onto the ground on the outer periphery of the pool body 10. This ensures the dryness of the ground on the outer periphery of the pool body 10, improves its aesthetics, reduces the chance of people slipping, and enhances safety.

[0031] In this embodiment, the upper side of the first enclosure 41 has a blade, which can cut and guide water when it falls on the top of the first enclosure 41, so as to avoid water splashing onto the ground outside the pool 10.

[0032] In this embodiment, a permeable plate 12 is provided between the inner wall of the pool body 10 and the outer wall of the seat body 20. A first step 21 is provided on the opposite side of the permeable plate 12 and the seat body 20, and the stone particle filter structure 30 is disposed on the step. The first step 21 can support and position the stone particle filter structure 30, separating it from the bottom surface of the water storage chamber 11, so as to facilitate the pumping component 50 to pump water.

[0033] In this embodiment, the stone filter structure 30 includes a housing 31, the top surface of which is higher than the water inlet. The side walls and bottom surface of the housing 31 are provided with through holes 311. A stone filter layer 32 is laid inside the housing 31, and the stone filter layer 32 extends to the top surface of the housing 31. The stone filter layer 32 can conceal the housing 31, creating a continuous stone layer effect on the top of the water storage cavity 11, thus improving aesthetics.

[0034] In this embodiment, positioning holes 312 are provided on the top surfaces of both ends of the housing 31, and handles 33 are also provided inside the housing 31. The height of the handles 33 is lower than the top surface of the housing 31 so that the handles 33 can be concealed by the stone filter layer 32. Multiple housings 31 are provided and arranged sequentially along the water storage chamber 11. When cleaning the stone filter layer 32 or inspecting and cleaning the bottom of the water storage chamber 11, the corresponding housing 31 along with the stones inside needs to be removed. The stone filter layer 32 can be cleaned to expose the perimeter of the housing 31. A skirt board (with protrusions at the bottom of the skirt board that mate with the positioning holes 312) is installed on the top of the housing 31. Then, the handles 33 are cleaned to expose them. By pulling up the handles 33, the housing 31 and the stones can be removed. Based on this structure, it is easy to remove the housing 31 and prevents the stones from falling out.

[0035] In this embodiment, a pebble planting layer 13 is laid between the permeable plate 12 and the inner wall of the pool body 10. The pebble planting layer 13 is used to plant some landscape plants whose roots can be submerged in water to improve aesthetics. The landscape plants are higher than the top surface of the pool body 10, which can also prevent water splashing to the ground on the outer perimeter of the pool body 10. The permeable plate 12 can be a cast-in-place or precast permeable concrete slab, and the landscape plants are grown hydroponically to prevent soil particles from passing through the permeable plate 12 and entering the water storage cavity.

[0036] In this embodiment, a second step 22 is provided on the outer bottom of the seat 20 below the first enclosure plate 41. The first enclosure plate 41 and the second step 22 are arranged at intervals, forming the aforementioned water inlet 412 between the first enclosure plate 41 and the second step 22. The water inlet 412 surrounds the seat 20. A first support block 413 is connected between the outer wall of the seat 20 and the inner wall of the first enclosure plate 41 to support and fix the first enclosure plate 41. The upper side of the first support block 413 also has a blade to prevent water from splashing out when it falls onto the support block.

In this embodiment, multiple water inlets 412 are provided and arranged along the first enclosure 41.

[0038] The conveying assembly 50 includes a water pipe 51 and a water pump 52. The water pipe 51 is embedded in the base 20, and the water pump 52 is located in the water storage chamber 11 and connected to the inlet end of the water pipe 51. The water pump 52 is located below the stone filter structure 30; the water pump 52 can be exposed after the corresponding housing 31 is removed for inspection and replacement.

[0039] In this embodiment, a first water distribution pool 23 is provided on the top surface of the seat 20. The first water distribution pool 23 is connected to the outlet end of the water pipe 51. A water drop step 24 is provided on the outer side of the seat 20 between the first water distribution pool 23 and the first surrounding plate 41. A second water distribution pool 25 is provided on the top surface of the water drop step 24. Both the water drop step 24 and the second water distribution pool 25 are arranged around the seat 20. A second surrounding plate 42 is provided on the top of the second water distribution pool 25. The bottom surface of the second surrounding plate 42 is higher than the bottom surface of the inner cavity of the second water distribution pool 25. A second support block is connected between the inner side wall of the second surrounding plate 42 and the outer side wall of the seat 20. The upper side of the second surrounding plate 42 has a blade, and the upper side of the second support block has a blade. This structure allows for the dissipation of water energy during its fall, preventing excessive kinetic energy from causing too many splashes when the water falls into the second uniform water tank 25. Furthermore, the first and second uniform water tanks 23 and 25 can evenly distribute the water, ensuring that it flows downwards uniformly. The second enclosure 42 also prevents water from splashing outwards when it falls into the second uniform water tank 25.

[0040] The embodiments of the present utility model have been described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the present utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. Within the scope of knowledge possessed by those skilled in the art, various changes can be made without departing from the spirit of the present utility model.
