Detailed Implementation

[0021] In the description of this utility model, it should be understood that the terms "length," "width," "upper," "lower," "front," "rear," "left," "right," "vertical," "horizontal," "top," "bottom," "inner," and "outer," etc., indicating the orientation or positional relationship, are based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings and are only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be construed as a limitation of this utility model. The various embodiments of this utility model are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0022] Please refer to Figures 1 to 6. The preferred technical solution provided by this utility model is as follows: a permeable quartz sand brick, comprising: a brick body 111; a water storage cavity structure provided inside the brick body 111, which stores water during rain and uses the evaporation of water to reduce the surface temperature; the water storage cavity structure includes a water storage layer 113 fixed to the brick body 111, a water storage trough 114 opened on the upper surface of the water storage layer 113, and the height of the water storage trough 114 increases from the inside to the outside; and a permeable component provided in the middle of the brick body 111 for water permeability of the brick body 111 and water storage of the water storage cavity structure.

[0023] This application improves the water content of permeable bricks by incorporating a water storage structure within the brick body 111. This allows the permeable bricks to store water during rain and then use the evaporation of water to lower the surface temperature in hot weather. As shown in Figures 5 and 6, the water storage layer 113, where the water storage cavity structure is located within the brick body 111, is fixed inside the brick body 111. The water storage trough 114 on the upper surface of the water storage layer 113 increases in height from the inside to the outside. When the permeable component in the middle of the brick body 111 encounters rain, most of the rainwater flows through the permeable component to the soil surface or into the drainage pipe, replenishing the groundwater.

[0024] Some rainwater flows into the water storage tank 114 through the permeable components and is stored inside the water storage tank 114. The stored rainwater can absorb heat through evaporation when the surface temperature is high, thereby reducing the surface and surrounding environmental temperature, alleviating the urban heat island effect, and increasing air humidity. In addition, by absorbing and temporarily storing rainwater, the permeable bricks can reduce the peak flow of surface runoff during rainstorms, reduce the instantaneous pressure on the drainage system, and effectively prevent waterlogging.

[0025] This application incorporates a water storage cavity structure within the brick body 111. On the one hand, by absorbing and temporarily storing rainwater, it can reduce the peak flow of surface runoff during heavy rain. On the other hand, the stored rainwater can absorb heat through evaporation when the surface temperature is high, thereby reducing the surface and surrounding environmental temperature and mitigating the urban heat island effect.

[0026] Furthermore, the permeable component includes a through groove 112 and a connecting groove 126 opened at the top and bottom of the middle of the brick body 111; a slot 115 opened in the middle of the water storage layer 113 communicating with the through groove 112 and the connecting groove 126; and a permeable element, wherein the permeable element includes a plate body 116 and a cylinder body 117, and the plate body 116 overlaps with the stepped groove 119 provided on the brick body 111, the upper part of the cylinder body 117 is fixed to the hole groove opened in the middle of the plate body 116, and its lower part is inserted into the slot 115; it also includes a long groove 118 opened in the ring on the plate body 116 for water storage in the water storage tank 114.

[0027] As shown in Figures 1-3, 5, and 6, the brick body 111 has through grooves 112 and connecting grooves 126 on the upper and lower parts of the water storage layer 113, respectively. The middle part of the water storage layer 113 has slots 115 that communicate with the through grooves 112 and connecting grooves 126. The plate body 116 and the cylinder body 117 are connected to each other. The plate body 116 overlaps the stepped groove 119 opened on the brick body 111 and placed above the through groove 112. The lower part of the cylinder body 117 is inserted into the slot 115. When it rains, rainwater can enter the sewer or the soil surface through the cylinder body 117. Some rainwater enters the water storage tank 114 through the long groove 118 and the through groove 112. Since the water storage tank 114 is higher inside and lower outside, the rainwater gradually overflows from the outside to the inside.

[0028] Furthermore, the thickness of the plate 116 decreases from the outside to the inside. Referring to Figure 5, this design can gather rainwater towards the cylinder 117, accelerating the rainwater discharge process.

[0029] Furthermore, the top edge of the slot 115 is lower than the top edge of the water storage tank 114; furthermore, a water control groove 120 is provided in a ring on the cylinder 117, and the bottom edge of the water control groove 120 is flush with the top edge of the slot 115.

[0030] As is known, as shown in Figures 5 and 6, water freezes in winter and expands by 9% of its original volume. This application considers that this problem will affect the performance of permeable bricks. The top edge of the slot 115 is designed to be lower than the top edge of the water storage tank 114, while the bottom edge of the water control tank 120 is flush with the top edge of the slot 115. This allows rainwater entering the water storage tank 114 to flow out through the water control tank 120 before overflowing, providing expansion space for the rainwater stored in the water storage tank 114, reducing the impact of water turning into ice on the permeable bricks, and the expansion space is at least one-tenth of the volume of the water storage tank 114.

[0031] Furthermore, the connecting groove 126 is adapted to connect with an existing water pipe of the same size, as shown in Figure 5, to achieve the diversion and discharge of rainwater.

[0032] Furthermore, several guide grooves 121 are provided on the upper surface of the brick body 111, as shown in Figures 1, 2, 3, and 4. This design guides rainwater to the permeable component, accelerating the permeability efficiency.

[0033] Furthermore, a first snap-fit ​​assembly and a second snap-fit ​​assembly are respectively provided at both ends and on both sides of the brick body 111. The first snap-fit ​​assembly includes a plurality of first slots 123 opened at one end of the brick body 111 and a first block 122 provided at the other end of the brick body 111 and corresponding to the plurality of first slots 123. The second snap-fit ​​assembly includes a plurality of second slots 124 opened on one side of the brick body 111 and a second block 125 fixed on the other side of the brick body 111, and the second block 125 is adapted to and inserted into the second slots 124 one by one.

[0034] As shown in Figures 1, 2, and 3, this application, through the provision of a first snap-fit ​​component and a second snap-fit ​​component, can achieve the longitudinal and transverse assembly of adjacent permeable bricks, respectively, and the operation is simple.

[0035] In this utility model, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," "joining," and "fixing" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral part; they can refer to a mechanical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium. Among these, there are various methods of detachable installation, such as using a combination of plug-in and snap-fit, or using bolt connections, etc.

[0036] The above description of the specific embodiments of this utility model is only used to further illustrate this utility model and should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of this utility model. Any non-essential improvements and adjustments made to this utility model by technical engineers in the art based on the above description of the utility model shall fall within the scope of protection of this utility model.
