[0030] Example 1

[0031] refer to Figure 1 As shown, this application discloses a prefabricated pavement system based on sponge city principles. This prefabricated pavement system is composed of multiple prefabricated structural layers 1, assembled to form the main structure of the pavement. Each prefabricated structural layer 1 has a permeable layer 2 and a filter layer 3 arranged sequentially above it for initial rainwater infiltration and filtration. A main flow channel 4 is provided at the edge of the prefabricated structural layer 1 to guide the flow direction of rainwater. The pavement base layer 5 serves as a fundamental support, ensuring the stability of the entire pavement system.

[0032] like Figure 2 As shown, the prefabricated structural layer 1 is made of reinforced concrete and has uniformly distributed vertical seepage holes 101 on its surface, with a diameter of approximately 5-10 mm, to ensure rapid rainwater infiltration. Horizontally arranged guide pipes 102, with a diameter of approximately 15-30 cm, are installed inside to ensure smooth rainwater flow to designated areas. Each span in the prefabricated structural layer 1 consists of 3-5 unit blocks joined together, with a 3-5 cm gap between each span. A longitudinally arranged secondary flow channel 11 is installed at the gap to collect rainwater from the guide pipes 102 into the main flow channel 4.

[0033] The uppermost permeable layer 2 is composed of porous expanded clay or permeable concrete, with a thickness of approximately 10-15 cm, for initial rainwater infiltration. The filter layer 3 between the structural layer 1 and the permeable layer 2 uses non-woven fabric or geotextile with good filtration performance, with a thickness of approximately 5-8 cm, effectively filtering impurities from the rainwater. The main road 4 is a precast reinforced concrete structure, and the road base 5 uses a compacted subgrade or crushed stone layer, with a thickness of approximately 20-30 cm, providing a solid supporting foundation.

[0034] A water storage tank 6 is installed at a suitable location on the road surface system to store pre-treated rainwater. A filter tank 7 is installed at the outlet of the water storage tank 6 and is filled with filter media such as activated carbon to further purify the rainwater. A clean water tank 8 is used to store the purified rainwater for subsequent use. A booster pump 9 is installed inside the clean water tank 8 and connected to the sprinkler network 10 through pipes to transport the purified rainwater to areas requiring irrigation or cleaning. The sprinkler network 10 consists of main pipes and branch pipes, and the sprinklers are rotating nozzles with good atomization effect to ensure that rainwater can be sprayed evenly to the target area.

[0035] The construction process for the prefabricated pavement system based on sponge cities, as proposed in this application, can be as follows:

[0036] 1. Basic processing

[0037] The construction area should be cleaned and leveled to ensure a firm and flat surface. According to design requirements, the road base layer 5 should be treated, such as by compacting the subgrade or laying a crushed stone subbase, with a thickness controlled within the range of 20-30 cm, to ensure the load-bearing capacity and stability of the base layer.

[0038] 2. Prefabricated structural layer installation

[0039] The prefabricated modular structure layer 1 is lifted to the designated position using a crane and assembled according to the designed splicing method. During the splicing process, ensure that the gaps between the modular structure layers 1 are uniform, generally controlled within the range of 2-3 mm, to guarantee overall flatness and sealing. Rubber pads or sealing strips are placed between the bottom of the modular structure layer 1 and the base layer to prevent rainwater leakage.

[0040] 3. Laying of permeable and filter layers

[0041] Inside the prefabricated structural layer 1, a permeable layer 2 is first laid, with porous expanded clay or permeable concrete evenly spread on the surface of the prefabricated structural layer 1, with a thickness controlled within the range of 10-15 cm. Then, a filter layer 3 is laid on top of the permeable layer 2, with non-woven fabric or geotextile smoothly covering the permeable layer 2, ensuring that the filter layer 3 is tightly bonded to the permeable layer 2 without wrinkles or gaps.

[0042] 4. Installation of main flow channel and secondary flow channel

[0043] At the edge of the prefabricated structural layer 1, the precast reinforced concrete main channel 4 is fixed to the edge of the prefabricated structural layer 1 with bolts or cement mortar to ensure a tight connection between the main channel 4 and the prefabricated structural layer 1, preventing water leakage. Inside the prefabricated structural layer 1, secondary channels 11 are set according to the distribution of rainwater. The secondary channels 11 can be small guide pipes or prefabricated trench structures to guide rainwater to the main channel 4.

[0044] The working principle of the prefabricated pavement system based on sponge cities in this application includes:

[0045] 1. Rainwater infiltration and filtration: The prefabricated pavement system of this application can effectively intercept mud, sand, debris and some pollutants in rainwater through the multi-stage infiltration and filtration of the permeable holes 101, permeable layer 2 and filter layer 3 on the surface of the prefabricated structural layer 1, so that rainwater can quickly infiltrate into the ground, replenish groundwater, alleviate urban flooding problems, improve rainwater quality and reduce rainwater runoff pollution.

[0046] 2. Rainwater Collection and Storage: After preliminary treatment, rainwater is collected through secondary channel 11 and main channel 4 and then flows into reservoir 6 for storage. The reservoir 6 enables the effective collection and utilization of rainwater resources, avoids waste, and improves water resource utilization efficiency.

[0047] 3. Rainwater Recycling: After further purification treatment in the filter tank 7, the rainwater in the storage tank 6 flows into the clean water tank 8. The booster pump 9 delivers the purified rainwater to the sprinkler network 10 for urban greening irrigation, road cleaning, landscape water replenishment, etc., realizing the recycling of rainwater, reducing the city's dependence on traditional water sources such as tap water, and saving water resources and water costs.

[0048] 4. Flood control and drainage: In rainy weather, this prefabricated road system can quickly drain rainwater into secondary channels 11 and main channels 4, and guide rainwater to designated areas, effectively reducing the pressure on the urban drainage system, reducing the risk of urban flooding, and improving the city's flood control and drainage capabilities.

[0049] 5. Environmental Improvement: The application of this system not only solves the problem of urban rainwater management but also has a positive impact on the urban ecological environment. Through rainwater infiltration and collection, it increases the area of ​​green space and water bodies in the city, improves the urban microclimate, reduces the urban heat island effect, and enhances the quality of the urban ecological environment, creating a more comfortable and livable living environment for citizens.

[0050] 6. The prefabricated structure adopted by this application system is easy to construct and dismantle. It can not only adapt to various complex terrains and spatial constraints, but also quickly complete the transformation of space and interface when urban planning changes, effectively improving the flexibility and adaptability of urban planning and management.

[0051] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
