Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to a water-blocking device, specifically a water-blocking sliding door. Background Technology
[0002] Sliding doors are common electric gates installed at the entrances of businesses, factories, and residential communities. Most existing sliding doors lack water-blocking capabilities, failing to meet the waterproofing requirements of some critical locations, especially substations. In such places, a large influx of water could cause serious consequences. Therefore, to meet waterproofing requirements, substation entrances need to be equipped with sandbags or other waterproofing measures during heavy rainfall. However, this requires manual handling of the sandbags, which is inconvenient. Utility Model Content
[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide a sliding door that blocks horizontal movement, in order to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.
[0004] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:
[0005] A sliding gate for blocking water is installed at a gate opening in a wall. When the gate is open, it does not obstruct the passage of people and vehicles through the gate opening. When the gate is closed, it blocks water from entering the gate opening. The gate includes a door leaf that can move horizontally along the wall and a door frame installed on both sides of the wall at the gate opening. The door leaf is slidably installed in the door frame, and the door frame is equipped with a sealing component. When the door leaf moves horizontally along the wall to close the gate opening, the door leaf descends under the action of a downward external force until the door leaf seals with the ground. The sealing component seals the gap between the door frame and both ends of the door leaf, thereby blocking water from entering the gate opening. When the downward external force acting on the door leaf is removed, the door leaf can rise until the seal between the door leaf and the ground is released.
[0006] Preferably, after the downward pressure on the door is removed, the door can automatically rise or be lifted by the external force.
[0007] Preferably, the door leaf is equipped with walking wheels that can walk on the ground via elastic support members; when a downward external force is applied to the door leaf, the elastic support members deform and accumulate elastic potential energy, the door leaf descends, and the vertical distance between the door leaf and the ground decreases; when the downward external force applied to the door leaf is removed, the elastic support members restore and release elastic potential energy, the door leaf automatically rises, and the vertical distance between the door leaf and the ground increases.
[0008] Preferably, the back surface of the door leaf is provided with a door frame for installing the door leaf, the door leaf is driven by the door frame to move horizontally synchronously, and the door leaf can only slide up and down relative to the door frame, and the bottom of the door frame is fixedly installed with a walking wheel that can walk on the ground.
[0009] Preferably, an elastic support is installed between the door frame and the door leaf; when a downward external force is applied to the door leaf, the elastic support deforms and accumulates elastic potential energy, the door leaf descends, and the vertical distance between the door leaf and the ground decreases; when the downward external force applied to the door leaf is removed, the elastic support restores and releases elastic potential energy, the door leaf automatically rises, and the vertical distance between the door leaf and the ground increases.
[0010] Preferably, a guide rail for the rolling wheels is fixedly installed on the ground at the doorway.
[0011] Preferably, the door leaf is fixedly equipped with wheels on both outer sides, and a guide rail for the wheels to roll is installed on the ground at the door opening. The guide rail is divided into a fixed section and a recessed section. After the door opening is closed, the wheels on both sides of the door leaf are located in the recessed section. The bottom of the door leaf is part of the fixed section after the door opening is closed. The fixed section is fixed to the ground. When an external force is applied to the door leaf, the door leaf acts on the recessed section through the wheels, causing the recessed section and the door leaf to sink together, and the bottom of the door leaf presses on the fixed section and forms a seal with the ground. After the external force applied to the door leaf is removed, the recessed section can rise to be flush with the fixed section.
[0012] Preferably, the bottom surface of the sunken section is provided with a fixing member embedded in the ground, and an elastic support member is installed on the fixing member to support the sunken section. When the downward external force is applied to the door leaf, the elastic support member deforms and accumulates elastic potential energy, and the door leaf descends; after the downward external force applied to the door leaf is removed, the elastic support member recovers and releases elastic potential energy, and the door leaf rises automatically.
[0013] Preferably, the bottom of the door leaf is provided with a sealing strip. When the door leaf is subjected to a downward external force, the door leaf will descend until the sealing strip forms a seal with the ground.
[0014] Preferably, it also includes a pressing mechanism installed on the door frame or the wall on both sides of the door opening. After the door closes the door opening, the power output end of the pressing mechanism acts on the door to press down the door and make the bottom of the door seal with the ground.
[0015] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0016] The door panel designed in this utility model can be raised and lowered. When the door panel is lowered to the bottom, it can form a seal with the ground. Sealing components are also provided on both sides of the door opening. After the sliding door closes the door opening, it can achieve a water-blocking effect. There is no need to set up sandbags or other water-blocking measures, which saves labor. This utility model is more convenient and faster for blocking water. Attached Figure Description

[0024] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0025] Please see Figure 1 A sliding gate is installed at a gate opening in a wall. When the gate is open, it does not obstruct the passage of people and vehicles through the gate opening. When the gate is closed, it blocks water from entering the gate opening. The gate includes a door leaf 1 that can move horizontally along the wall and a door frame 2 installed on both sides of the wall at the gate opening. The door leaf 1 is slidably installed in the door frame 2, and the door frame 2 is provided with a sealing component 3. When the door leaf 1 moves horizontally along the wall to close the gate opening, the door leaf 1 descends under the action of a downward external force until the door leaf 1 forms a seal with the ground. The sealing component 3 seals the area between the door frame 2 and both ends of the door leaf 1, thereby blocking water from entering the gate opening. When the downward external force acting on the door leaf 1 is removed, the door leaf 1 can rise until the seal between the door leaf 1 and the ground is released.
[0026] After the downward pressure applied to the door leaf 1 is removed, the door leaf 1 can automatically rise.
[0027] The horizontal length of the door leaf 1 is not less than the distance between the sealing components 3.
[0028] In one embodiment of this utility model, the sealing component 3 is a sealing airbag. The sealing airbag is directly fixed on the side wall of the door frame 2 facing the water-facing side of the door leaf 1. After the door leaf 1 moves laterally to close the doorway, the sealing airbag is inflated by an external air source. The expansion of the sealing airbag seals the water-facing sides of both ends of the door leaf 1 and the door frame 2. At this time, the door frame 2 and the wall at the doorway are sealed with concrete or sealant.
[0029] The bottom of the door leaf 1 is provided with a sealing strip. When the door leaf 1 is subjected to a downward external force, the door leaf 1 descends until the sealing strip forms a seal with the ground, and the length of the sealing strip is not less than the distance between the sealing components 3.
[0030] After the door leaf 1 moves laterally along the wall to close the doorway, the pressing mechanism 4 provides downward pressure on the door leaf 1, causing the door leaf 1 to descend until the bottom of the door leaf 1 forms a seal with the ground.
[0031] The pressing mechanism 4 includes a pressing drive device installed on the door frame 2 on both sides of the door opening or on the wall on both sides of the door opening. After the door leaf 1 closes the door opening, the power output end of the pressing drive device acts on the door leaf 1 to press down the door leaf 1 so that the bottom of the door leaf 1 forms a seal with the ground.
[0032] Please see Figure 2 The downward driving device is a jack that is fixedly installed on the top of the door frame 2 on both sides of the door opening. The movable end of the jack is set downward and can move vertically up and down. When the movable end of the jack moves downward, it can press on the top of the door leaf 1 and press the door leaf 1 down.
[0033] Please see Figure 1 The sliding door also includes a drive mechanism 5 for driving the door leaf 1 to move laterally.
[0034] The drive mechanism 5 includes a drive motor 51 fixed on the ground or door frame 2 and a rack 52 that moves laterally in sync with the door leaf 1. The output end of the drive motor 51 is connected to the rack 52 through a transmission component, and drives the rack 52 and the door leaf 1 to move laterally in sync.
[0035] Based on the above technical solution, the specific installation methods and related contents of door leaf 1 and door frame 2 include the following embodiments:
[0036] Example 1
[0037] Please see Figure 1The door leaf 1 is equipped with walking wheels 7 that can walk on the ground via elastic support members 6. When an external downward force is applied to the door leaf 1, the elastic support member 6 deforms and accumulates elastic potential energy. At this time, the vertical distance between the walking wheels 7 and the door leaf 1 decreases, the door leaf 1 descends, and the vertical distance between the door leaf 1 and the ground decreases. When the external downward force applied to the door leaf 1 is removed, the elastic support member 6 recovers and releases elastic potential energy. At this time, the vertical distance between the walking wheels 7 and the door leaf 1 increases, the door leaf 1 rises automatically, and the vertical distance between the door leaf 1 and the ground increases.
[0038] For details, please refer to Figure 3 The elastic support 6 is a spring shock absorber 61. The top end of the spring shock absorber 61 is connected to the side of the door leaf 1, and its bottom end is fixedly connected to the traveling wheel 7. The spring shock absorber 61 can be set vertically. At this time, the top end of the spring shock absorber 61 is fixedly connected to the side of the door leaf 1, and the traveling wheel 7 is located on the outer side of both ends of the door leaf 1.
[0039] For preferred options, please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 4 The elastic support 6 includes a base 62 fixedly connected to the walking wheel 7 and a spring shock absorber 61 obliquely arranged between the base 62 and the door leaf 1. The bottom end of the spring shock absorber 61 is hinged to the base 62, and the top end is hinged to the door leaf 1. The end of the base 62 facing the door leaf 1 is connected to the side of the door leaf 1 through a connector 63. The door leaf 1 and the base are respectively hinged to the two ends of the connector 63. The advantage of this design is that the obliquely arranged spring shock absorber 61 disperses part of the force in the horizontal direction. In this way, when pressing down on the door leaf 1, the downward force can be reduced to a certain extent, thereby saving the energy required to press down on the door leaf 1.
[0040] Furthermore, a diagonally arranged balance bar 64 is provided between the base 62 and the door leaf 1. The top end of the balance bar 64 is hinged to the side of the door leaf 1, and the bottom end slides horizontally and is slidably connected to the base 62. During the lifting and lowering of the door leaf 1, the bottom end of the balance bar 64 presses down on the base 62 to prevent the base 62 and the traveling wheel 7 from tilting. The elastic support 6 in this embodiment has a simple structure and high reliability.
[0041] The ground at the doorway is fixedly equipped with guide rails 8 for the rolling of the walking wheels 7.
[0042] The rack 52 of the drive mechanism 5 is fixed to the back surface of the door leaf 1, and rises and falls synchronously with the door leaf 1 during the lifting and lowering process.
[0043] Please see Figure 5In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the transmission component includes a gear 53 meshing with a rack 52. The gear 53 is driven to rotate by a drive motor 51. The tooth width of the gear 53 is vertically oriented and is not less than the lifting stroke of the door leaf 1 and the rack 52. A drive shaft 54 is coaxially arranged inside the gear 53. The drive shaft 54 drives the gear 53 to rotate synchronously, and the gear 53 can slide freely along the drive shaft 54 in the vertical direction. The bottom end of the drive shaft 54 is driven to rotate by the drive motor 51.
[0044] It should be noted that the connection structure for the output shaft of the drive motor to drive the gear to rotate is set according to the specific configuration of the drive motor, such as direct bolt connection, worm gear structure, helical gear meshing structure, coupling, etc. None of the above connection structures have creative technical features and are existing technologies, so they will not be described in detail here.
[0045] Example 2
[0046] Please see Figure 6 The back surface of the door leaf 1 is provided with a door frame 11 for installing the door leaf 1. The door leaf 1 is driven by the door frame 11 to move horizontally synchronously, and the door leaf 1 can only slide up and down relative to the door frame 11. The bottom of the door frame 11 is fixedly installed with a traveling wheel 7.
[0047] Specifically, a vertically arranged guide rail is fixed on the gantry 11, and a slider matching the guide rail is fixed on the door leaf 1. The door leaf 1 is slidably installed on the gantry 11 through the slider and the guide rail, and can only slide up and down relative to the gantry 11. It should be noted that the cooperation between the guide rail and the slider is a mature existing technology, and its specific structure will not be described in detail here.
[0048] In a preferred embodiment of this invention, a vertically arranged elastic support 6 is installed between the door frame 11 and the door leaf 1. When a downward external force is applied to the door leaf 1, the elastic support 6 deforms and accumulates elastic potential energy. At this time, the vertical distance between the traveling wheel and the door leaf 1 decreases, the door leaf 1 descends, and the vertical distance between the door leaf 1 and the ground decreases. When the downward external force acting on the door leaf 1 is removed, the elastic support 6 recovers and releases elastic potential energy. At this time, the vertical distance between the traveling wheel 7 and the door leaf 1 increases, the door leaf 1 rises automatically, and the vertical distance between the door leaf 1 and the ground increases.
[0049] Specifically, the elastic support 6 is a spring shock absorber, and the door leaf 1 and the door frame 11 are fixedly connected to both ends of the spring shock absorber.
[0050] The ground at the doorway is fixedly equipped with guide rails 8 for the rolling of the walking wheels 7.
[0051] The rack 52 of the drive mechanism 5 is fixed on the door frame. The output end of the drive motor 51, which is fixed on the ground or door frame, is connected to the rack 52 through a transmission component, and drives the rack 52 and the door leaf 1 to move laterally synchronously.
[0052] The transmission component is a gear 53 that meshes with the rack 52. It should be noted that the connection structure for the output shaft of the drive motor to drive the gear to rotate is set according to the specific configuration of the drive motor, such as direct bolt connection, worm gear structure, helical gear meshing structure, coupling, etc. None of the above connection structures have creative technical features and are existing technologies, so they will not be described in detail here.
[0053] Example 3
[0054] Please see Figure 7 The door leaf 1 is fixedly equipped with traveling wheels 7 on both outer sides. The ground at the door opening is equipped with a guide rail 8 for the traveling wheels 7 to roll. The guide rail 8 is divided into a fixed section 81 and a recessed section 82. After the door opening is closed, the traveling wheels 7 at both ends of the door leaf 1 are located in the recessed section 82. After the door opening is closed, the bottom of the door leaf 1 is part of the fixed section 81. The fixed section 81 is fixed to the ground. When the downward external force is applied to the door leaf 1, the door leaf 1 acts on the recessed section 82 through the traveling wheels 7, causing the recessed section 82 and the door leaf 1 to sink together. The bottom of the door leaf 1 presses on the fixed section 81 and forms a seal with the ground. After the downward external force applied to the door leaf 1 is removed, the recessed section 82 can rise to be flush with the fixed section 81, making it convenient to slide the door leaf 1 open.
[0055] It should be noted that before the door is closed, the lower part of the door leaf 1 is another part of the fixed section 81. The various parts of the fixed section 81 are connected by the recessed section 82, which facilitates the smooth movement of the door leaf 1 on the guide rail 8.
[0056] The bottom surface of the sunken section 82 is provided with a fixing member 83 pre-embedded in the ground. An elastic support member 6, which is a spring, is installed on the fixing member 83 to support the sunken section 82. When the downward external force is applied to the door leaf 1, the elastic support member 6 deforms and accumulates elastic potential energy, and the door leaf 1 descends. After the downward external force applied to the door leaf 1 is removed, the elastic support member 6 restores and releases elastic potential energy, and the door leaf 1 rises automatically.
[0057] Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included within the protection scope of the present invention. Furthermore, the contents not described in detail in this specification are all prior art known to those skilled in the art.
