Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of waterproof membrane technology, and in particular to a root-penetration resistant waterproof membrane for green roofs. Background Technology
[0002] Root-penetration resistant waterproof membranes use a copper-based core as the root-barrier layer. They possess long-term resistance to plant root penetration, strong adhesion, good stability, low-temperature flexibility, good heat resistance, strong chemical corrosion resistance, and strong radiation resistance, thus gaining widespread application. Currently, when using root-penetration resistant waterproof membranes for rooftop planting, users first lay a water-draining layer and soil on top of the membrane before planting. When watering the plants, to prevent water from accumulating in the root zone and causing root rot, which could lead to plant death, the water-draining layer drains excess water, reducing water immersion in the plant roots.
[0003] Chinese Patent CN217079415U discloses a root-penetration-resistant waterproof membrane for green roofs, comprising a waterproof membrane body, wherein the waterproof membrane body is provided with a copper-based base layer, a partition plate, and a water-dispersing layer for dispersing water. The water-dispersing layer is located between the partition plate and the copper-based base layer, and the partition plate and the water-dispersing layer are in communication. The interior of the water-dispersing layer is connected to the outside, and the side of the partition plate facing away from the water-dispersing layer is in contact with the outside. This application has the effect of improving the accuracy of irrigation water volume.
[0004] When existing root-penetration resistant waterproof membranes are used on green roofs, plants may be planted on top of the membrane. When watering the soil around the plants, the water may flow onto the waterproof membrane, causing soil debris to be washed onto it. This can affect the membrane's reusability and increase the workload of cleaning the soil from the plants, thus reducing the effectiveness of the root-penetration resistant waterproof membrane for green roofs.

[0027] The specific embodiments of this disclosure will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are for illustration and explanation only and are not intended to limit this disclosure.
[0028] Example 1
[0029] like Figure 1 - Figure 3 As shown, this utility model proposes a root-penetration resistant waterproof membrane for green roofs, comprising: a planting base layer 1, embedded rods 2, an isolation component 3, a partition plate 4, a drainage component, and connectors; two embedded rods 2 are provided, and both embedded rods 2 are connected to the planting base layer 1; the isolation component 3 is connected below the planting base layer 1; the isolation component 3 includes an isolation shell 301, a support plate 302, an absorbent cotton layer 303, a support rod 304, an installation rod 305, a threaded rod 306, and an operating rod 307; the support plate 302 is provided with... There are two components: two support plates 302 connected to the inner wall of the isolation shell 301, and an absorbent cotton layer 303 connected to the two support plates 302. Support rods 304 are connected to both ends of the absorbent cotton layer 303, with each support rod 304 corresponding to an installation rod 305. Each installation rod 305 has a pre-drilled mounting hole, with a threaded rod 306 threaded into it. The threaded rod 306 connects to an operating rod 307. A partition plate 4 is connected below the isolation component 3; a drainage component is connected below the partition plate 4; and a waterproof component is connected below the drainage component. Through the isolation component 3, partition plate 4, and drainage component, planting soil is prevented from entering the waterproof membrane through water flow, thus avoiding affecting the use of the root-penetration-resistant waterproof membrane. This also facilitates reducing the cleaning work of the planting waterproof membrane and conveniently improves the performance of the root-penetration-resistant waterproof membrane for green roofs.
[0030] To further explain, the two embedded rods 2 are hollow inside, with circular through holes at both ends connecting to the outside. The mounting rod 305 slides through the circular through holes and connects with the threaded rod 306; the absorbent cotton layer 303 is connected inside the isolation shell 301. When the planting soil is laid on the absorbent cotton layer 303, the embedded rods 2 pass through the mounting rods 305 and stand upright on the absorbent cotton layer 303, and then the planting soil is laid on top, which facilitates the protection of the waterproof membrane and improves the use of the root-penetration resistant waterproof membrane.
[0031] To further explain, the waterproofing components include a root-barrier waterproofing layer 6, a connecting waterproofing layer 7, and a structural layer 8. The root-barrier waterproofing layer 6 is connected below the drainage channel 5, the connecting waterproofing layer 7 is connected below the root-barrier waterproofing layer 6, and the structural layer 8 is connected below the connecting waterproofing layer 7. A drainage assembly, a partition plate 4, and an isolation assembly 3 are connected above the root-barrier waterproofing layer 6 and the connecting waterproofing layer 7, which facilitates improving the service life of the waterproofing membrane and enhancing its root-penetration resistant performance.
[0032] Example 2
[0033] like Figure 3 As shown, this utility model proposes a root-penetration resistant waterproof membrane for green roofs. Based on the above embodiments, this embodiment also details the specific components of the drainage assembly and their assembly method.
[0034] Further explanation: The drainage assembly includes a drainage trough 5, a water pipe 501, an inclined plate 502, and a filter plate 503. The drainage trough 5 is connected below the partition plate 4. The inlet end of the water pipe 501 passes through the drainage trough 5, and the outlet end is connected to the outside of the drainage trough 5. The inclined plate 502 and the filter plate 503 are connected inside the drainage trough 5, with the inclined end of the inclined plate 502 facing the inlet end of the water pipe 501, and the inclined plate 502 is connected below the filter plate 503. The filter plate 503 is provided with water flow holes, and the water flow holes and drainage holes correspond one-to-one, with the drainage holes located on the partition plate 4. Excess water is concentrated through the inclined plate 502 at the inlet end of the water pipe, facilitating the drainage of excess water in the drainage trough 5 for reuse, thus improving the overall structure and effectiveness of the drainage assembly.
[0035] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: The root-penetration resistant waterproof membrane for the green roof is connected to the root-blocking waterproof layer 6 through the drainage channel 5. The root-blocking waterproof layer 6 is connected to the connecting waterproof layer 7, and the connecting waterproof layer 7 is connected to the structural layer 8 concrete structure. The drainage channel 5 is connected to the partition plate 4 and the isolation shell 301. The isolation shell 301 is connected to the absorbent cotton layer 303 through the inner wall support plate 302. The two ends of the absorbent cotton layer 303 are connected to the support rod 304. The support rod 304 is connected to the installation rod 305. The pre-embedded rod 2 is used so that the installation rod 305 passes through the pre-reserved installation hole in the circular through hole and is connected to the outside. The pre-embedded rod 2 is connected to the absorbent cotton layer 303. Planting soil is laid on the absorbent cotton layer 303 to form the planting base layer 1, so that green plants are planted on the planting base layer 1. When the green plants are watered, and in the case of excessive watering, the water seeps into the absorbent cotton layer 303 through the planting soil layer. During water flow, soil fragments are filtered onto the absorbent cotton layer 303, which absorbs excess water. The absorbent cotton layer 303 is connected to the support rod 304, which in turn is connected to the installation rod 305. The pre-drilled installation hole end of the installation rod 305 passes through the embedded rod 2, allowing for a threaded connection with the threaded rod 306. The threaded rod 306 is connected to the operating rod 307. By operating the rod 307, the operator presses the support rod 304 and the installation rod 305 downwards, thus expelling the water absorbed by the absorbent cotton layer 303. The water is then pushed out through the drainage holes and flow holes of the partition plate 4, allowing the water to enter the drainage trough 5. The water is then drained and reused through the water pipe 501, reducing water waste and preventing water from seeping into the waterproof components, thus extending their service life. This also facilitates the overall structural integration of the root-penetration resistant waterproof membrane for green roofs.
[0036] The embodiments of the present invention have been described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the present invention is not limited thereto. Various changes can be made within the scope of knowledge possessed by those skilled in the art without departing from the spirit of the present invention.
