Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of water conservancy pumping station technology, and in particular to a pumping station structure that combines self-drainage and mechanical drainage. Background Technology

[0002] Flood storage and detention areas serve as temporary flood storage sites and are an important measure to improve the flood control capacity of a river basin. Normally, these areas are the living and production bases of local residents. In the event of a major flood, to protect the safety of residents within the flood storage and detention areas, safe zones are typically constructed within these areas as refuge sites.

[0003] To achieve rainwater drainage from the safe zone, it is necessary to construct a new drainage pumping station that meets both gravity flow and flood discharge requirements. Various types of pumping stations exist, including double-layered and separately arranged gravity-flow and mechanical drainage channels. The challenge lies in designing a pumping station that integrates gravity flow and mechanical drainage, ensuring good inlet and outlet conditions, high system efficiency, compact layout, reduced engineering workload and investment, and ease of operation and management. Effectively utilizing existing space to design a gravity-flow and mechanical drainage integrated pumping station is a pressing issue.

[0004] Chinese patent CN219527863U discloses a high-efficiency anti-turbulence drainage pump station channel. Following the direction of water flow from the pump station's inlet to outlet, the channel is sequentially equipped with a columnar curved surface partition wall, a gradually expanding diversion channel, a radial partition wall, a sloping gradually expanding channel, a rectangular perforated flow-stabilizing barrier wall, a collection tank, and an outlet tank. The columnar curved surface partition wall is used to divert the incoming water flow initially, after which each stream flows into the gradually expanding diversion channel. The radial partition wall is installed within the gradually expanding diversion channel to separate the various streams of water. The system undergoes a secondary diversion, with each stream flowing through the sloping, gradually widening channel to the collection tank. A rectangular perforated flow-stabilizing barrier is positioned between the sloping, gradually widening channel and the collection tank. The collection tank contains a gravity-fed drainage channel and a pumping-driven drainage channel, both connected to the outlet tank. A controllable sluice gate is installed between the gravity-fed drainage channel and the outlet tank. An axial flow pump is installed within the pumping-driven drainage channel. The outlet tank is equipped with a sluice gate for drainage. Without both gravity-fed and mechanically driven drainage channels, the system cannot simultaneously meet the requirements of gravity flow and flood discharge. Utility Model Content

The connection is coated with polyester sealant.

[0016] Preferably, there are a total of 4 machine-discharged water inlet pools, with 2 on each side, and a total of 2 self-discharged water inlet pools.

[0019] Preferably, the water outlet pool has two drainage holes, and the wall thickness of the water outlet pool gradually decreases from the bottom to the top.

[0020] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0021] When the water level in the area is higher than that of the outer river, floodwater flows through a self-draining inlet pool into an outlet pool and is discharged into the corresponding river channel. If the water level in the safe zone is lower than that of the outer river, floodwater flows through a mechanically operated inlet pool into an outlet pool and is discharged to the outside of the safe zone embankment. This invention solves the flood drainage problem by providing good inlet and outlet conditions, achieving high device efficiency, and having a compact layout, thus saving on engineering work and investment.
