Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of constructed wetland structure technology, specifically to a drainage pipe type constructed wetland. Background Technology
[0002] Constructed wetland technology is widely used for water purification of sewage, sewage treatment plant effluent, and river and lake water due to its advantages such as high treatment capacity, good ecological performance, and low operating costs. For example, a prior art technology entitled "Controllable Periodic Two-End Alternating Inlet Subsurface Flow Constructed Wetland Sewage Treatment System and its Treatment Process" proposes a constructed wetland structure including a wetland inlet water distribution area, a wetland main body, and a wetland effluent collection area. The wetland inlet water distribution area and the wetland effluent collection area are located at opposite ends of the system, forming a symmetrical structure. The wetland main body is located between the wetland inlet water distribution area and the wetland effluent collection area. One end of the wetland inlet water distribution area and the wetland effluent collection area is a wall, and the other end, between the wetland main body and the wall, is provided with a porous water distribution wall. The artificial wetland structure features a uniformly porous structure on the water distribution wall. Water inlet pipes are embedded in the upper part of the side walls of the wetland inlet and outlet water collection areas, each equipped with an inlet valve control device. Two or more rows of outlet pipes are embedded in the wall below the inlet pipes, arranged horizontally between them. Drainage pipes are embedded at the bottom of the side walls of the wetland inlet and outlet water collection areas. The main body of the wetland includes economic plants and wetland substrate filler, with the substrate filler located at the bottom of the main body and economic plants planted on top of it. This artificial wetland structure incorporates porous water distribution walls between the wetland inlet and outlet water collection areas and the main wetland structure. The porous water distribution walls at the inlet end allow wastewater to enter the wetland structure evenly, while the porous water distribution walls at the outlet end allow the plants at the end of the wetland to fully absorb pollutants in the water before the wastewater flows out of the wetland. This achieves a good wastewater treatment effect.
[0003] However, this type of constructed wetland structure also has many problems. It requires a large land area, consuming a significant amount of land, forcing many projects to use alternative technologies due to insufficient land. Currently, many water treatment projects require long-distance water transport, resulting in a large amount of space within the pipelines. Conventional pipelines only have water transport functions and lack water purification capabilities, leading to a significant waste of pipeline space. Utility Model Content

[0012] According to the present application, a drainage pipe type artificial wetland also includes a flow guiding structure, which is a structure disposed in the filler layer and is used to open when the water flow resistance in the pipe is too high in order to improve the water flow capacity of the pipe.
[0013] According to the present application, a drainage pipe type artificial wetland is provided, wherein the flow guiding structure includes a flow channel; the flow channel is an inclined and bent channel opened in the filler layer, wherein the upper end of the flow channel located between the adjacent upper and lower baffles is located in the flow gap between the lower baffle and the upper side of the inner wall of the pipe, and the lower end is located in the flow gap between the upper baffle and the lower side of the inner wall of the pipe.

[0017] According to the present application, a drainage pipe type artificial wetland is provided, wherein the wetland plants are one or more of reeds, irises, calamus, and pickerelweed.
[0018] The advantages of this application are: 1. This application sets a filling layer inside the pipe, sets a planting layer on the filling layer, and uses the baffle structure inside the pipe to slow down the flow rate, so that the water can flow slowly inside the pipe and be adsorbed and purified by the filling layer and the planting layer.

Thus, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of that feature. In the description of this application, "multiple" means at least two, such as two, three, etc., unless otherwise explicitly specified.
[0036] The present application will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.
[0037] This application relates to a drainage pipe type constructed wetland. The constructed wetland structure of this application is built based on drainage pipes. By setting up a filler layer and a planting layer on the original drainage pipe structure, the filler layer and the planting layer are used to purify and adsorb the water in the drainage pipe. Through this structure and method, the dual functions of water conveyance and water purification are achieved. It can not only effectively purify water quality, but also save a lot of engineering land because it does not require a large amount of land like conventional constructed wetlands, but only uses the existing drainage pipe structure.
[0038] Specifically, such as Figures 1-4 As shown, a drainage pipe type constructed wetland includes a pipe 1, a filler layer 2, a planting layer 3, and a baffle structure. The pipe 1 is a pre-installed drainage pipe, a water conveyance structure arranged horizontally with water entering from one side and exiting from the other. Multiple planting holes are spaced along the flow direction within the pipe 1 on its upper wall to facilitate planting in the planting layer 3. The filler layer 2 is a purification filler structure filled within the pipe 1 that adsorbs pollutants in the water flow. The planting layer 3 includes wetland plants planted on the filler layer 2 within the pipe 1 through the planting holes. The wetland plants are one or more of reeds, irises, calamus, and pickerelweed. The baffle structure is installed within the pipe 1 to slow down the water flow velocity within the pipe 1.
[0039] Pipe 1 is filled with a filler layer 2, and a planting layer 3 is planted on top of the filler layer 2. The filler layer 2 and the planting layer 3 are used to adsorb and purify the water flow in pipe 1, greatly improving the purification effect. The filler layer 2 itself has a delaying effect on the water flow in pipe 1. In order to further increase the residence time of the water flow in pipe 1 and improve the adsorption and purification effect, this application sets a baffle structure in the pipe. The baffle structure increases the flow distance of the water flow in the pipe, prolongs the residence time of the water flow, and enhances the adsorption and purification effect of the filler layer 2 and the planting layer 3.
[0040] In some embodiments of this application, the above-mentioned flow deflection structure has been optimized. The flow deflection structure of this embodiment includes an upper flow deflector 4 and a lower flow deflector 5 arranged alternately along the flow direction inside the pipe 1. The upper flow deflector 4 is a plate-shaped structure with its upper end fixed to the upper side of the inner wall of the pipe 1 and its lower end having a flow gap with the lower side of the inner wall of the pipe 1. The lower flow deflector 5 is a plate-shaped structure with its lower end fixed to the lower side of the inner wall of the pipe 1 and its upper end having a flow gap with the upper side of the inner wall of the pipe 1.
[0041] In this embodiment, the water flow path in the pipe 1 is converted into a bent structure by the upper baffle 4 and the lower baffle 5. The water flows through the flow gap below the upper baffle 4 and enters the packing layer 2 between the upper baffle 4 and the lower baffle 5. After passing through the packing layer 2, it passes through the flow gap at the upper end of the adjacent lower baffle 5 and enters the next section of the packing layer 2. This process continues until the water flows out of the pipe 1.
[0042] The upper baffle 4 and the lower baffle 5 extend the path of the water flow in the pipe 1, thus prolonging the residence time of the water flow in the pipe 1 and enhancing the purification and adsorption effect of the packing layer 2 and the planting layer 3 on the water flow in the pipe.
[0043] In other embodiments of this application, the filler layer 2 described above has been optimized, specifically, as follows: Figure 2 As shown, the packing layer 2 in this embodiment includes multiple cylindrical sponge modules filled in the pipe 1, with the sponge modules located between adjacent upper baffle 4 and lower baffle 5.
[0044] like Figures 3-4 As shown, the sponge module in this embodiment is a cylindrical structure that is tightly filled inside the pipe 1, with its outer circumference tightly attached to the inner wall of the pipe 1. Multiple sponge modules are arranged along the water flow direction. The two ends of each sponge module are tightly attached to the upper baffle 4 and the lower baffle 5, respectively.
[0045] The sponge module in this embodiment is a lightweight planting sponge. The sponge module has excellent adsorption properties, effectively adsorbing impurities and pollutants in the water flowing through it. Simultaneously, the sponge module also slows down the water flow within pipe 1.
[0046] The sponge module is made of a material with good compressibility. During installation, it is directly inserted into the pipe 1 through the planting hole. If blockage occurs and cleaning or replacement is needed, it can be directly removed through the planting hole. The sponge module has a downwardly recessed planting pit 7 at the corresponding planting hole position to facilitate the planting of the planting layer 3.
[0047] In a further embodiment of this application, a flow guiding structure is provided inside the pipe. The flow guiding structure is a structure provided inside the packing layer 2 and is used to open when the water flow resistance in the pipe 1 is too high in order to improve the water flow capacity of the pipe 1.
[0048] In fact, the flow guiding structure in this embodiment is set inside the sponge module. When the channel 1 needs to increase its water flow capacity, and the sponge module used for a long time is clogged, the flow guiding structure can be opened to guide the water flow in the pipe 1. The water flow through the flow guiding structure can quickly pass through the pipe 1 without being blocked by the sponge module, thus achieving the effect of enhancing the water flow capacity.
[0049] Specifically, such as Figure 2 As shown, the flow guiding structure of this embodiment includes a flow channel 6, which is an inclined and bent channel opened in the packing layer 2. The upper end of the flow channel 6, which is located between the lower baffle 5 and the upper side of the inner wall of the pipe 1, is located in the flow gap between the upper baffle 4 and the lower baffle 5, and the lower end is located in the flow gap between the upper baffle 4 and the lower side of the inner wall of the pipe 1.
[0050] The flow channel 6 forms a bent channel structure. The flow channels 6 inside adjacent sponge modules are interconnected, forming a bent flow channel structure. This bent structure of the flow channel 6 can also extend the flow path of the water. The direction of the flow channel 6 is intersecting the direction of the pipe 1. After the flow channel 6 is opened, some of the water in the flow channel 6 will still enter the sponge module for adsorption.
[0051] The flow passage 6 is connected at the flow gap between the upper baffle 4 and the lower baffle 5. The flow passage 6 itself does not interfere with the upper baffle 4 and the lower baffle 5, and the water can flow easily through the flow passage 6.
[0052] In this embodiment, the diameter of the flow channel 6 is 1 / 5 to 1 / 4 of the diameter of the sponge module, which ensures the water flow capacity of the pipe itself and avoids the loss of the pipe's drainage function due to excessive water resistance. At the same time, it improves the compressibility of the sponge module and facilitates the filling and removal of the sponge module.
[0053] In some other embodiments of this application, the above-mentioned flow deflection structure is optimized to provide another flow deflection structure. The specific flow deflection structure includes an upper flow deflection plate and a lower flow deflection plate arranged alternately along the flow direction inside the pipe 1. The upper flow deflection plate is a plate-shaped structure fixed to the inner wall of the pipe 1. The upper half of the upper flow deflection plate is uniformly provided with multiple flow passage holes. The lower flow deflection plate is a plate-shaped structure fixed to the inner wall of the pipe 1. The lower half of the lower flow deflection plate is uniformly provided with multiple flow passage holes.
[0054] In actual use, the drainage pipe type artificial wetland of this application allows water to enter the pipe 1 from one side. It first passes through the sponge module of the filler layer 2, and the sponge module and the planting layer 3 planted on the sponge module adsorb impurities and pollutants in the water. The water then passes through the flow gap below the upper baffle 4 and enters the filler layer 2 between the upper baffle 4 and the lower baffle 5. After passing through the filler layer 2, it passes through the flow gap at the upper end of the adjacent lower baffle 5 and enters the next section of the filler layer 2. This process continues until the water flows out of the pipe 1.
[0055] When it is necessary to increase the water flow capacity, the flow passage 6 in pipe 1 can be opened (which can be controlled by a valve structure on one side of pipe 1). Some water will flow through the flow passage 6 until it flows out from the flow passage 6 on the other side.
[0056] The direction of water flow in the pipeline in this application is as follows: Figure 2 The left and right directions in the middle.
[0057] The foregoing has shown and described the basic principles, main features, and advantages of this application. Those skilled in the art should understand that this application is not limited to the above embodiments. The embodiments and descriptions in the specification are merely illustrative of the principles of this application. Various changes and modifications can be made to this application without departing from the spirit and scope thereof, and all such changes and modifications fall within the scope of this application as claimed. The scope of protection of this application is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
