Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of rainwater treatment technology, specifically to a modular rainwater non-point source pollution purification device. Background Technology

[0002] Surface runoff from urban roads and open spaces is a significant source of non-point source water pollution in urbanized areas. When rainwater flows over impermeable surfaces such as roads, parking lots, and lawns, it typically carries pollutants like garbage, oil, heavy metals, fertilizers, and pesticides into water bodies. Since rainwater is usually discharged directly through municipal pipe networks, it easily pollutes rivers and streams, ultimately harming human lives. Therefore, it is essential to install non-point source water treatment devices at storm drains along urban roads to manage the non-point source pollution generated by urban stormwater runoff.

[0003] Most of the non-point source pollution processors currently on the market have complex structures, large product sizes, and high costs. They can usually only be installed at newly built rainwater grates, and existing old rainwater grates cannot be modified. Therefore, the construction time is long, and the disassembly and assembly are not flexible, which greatly restricts the construction of future upgrades and renovations. At the same time, the later maintenance is very troublesome.

[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to develop a simple and easy-to-install treatment device to effectively solve the non-point source pollution problem caused by urban rainwater surface runoff. Utility Model Content

[0040] Please refer to Figures 1 to 7 This application provides a modular rainwater non-point source pollution purification device, including a housing 1 and a sewage interception basket 2; the sewage interception basket 2 is detachably installed at the top port of the housing 1, and the bottom of the sewage interception basket 2 is evenly distributed with water passage holes 21; the bottom center area of ​​the housing 1 has a notch, and a partition 11 is arranged around the edge of the notch, the partition 11 and the inner wall of the housing 1 form a filter cavity 12, a filter element 3 is arranged in the filter cavity 12, and the bottom of the housing 1 is evenly distributed with water outlet holes 13.

[0041] In this embodiment, the housing 1 is rectangular with an open top; the cavity enclosed by the inner side of the partition 11 is also rectangular, and the partition 11 is located at the center of the bottom of the housing 1. Since both the top and bottom of the partition 11 are open, a drainage channel is formed inside the partition 11. The trap basket 2 is rectangular and is hung on the top of the housing 1. The side walls and bottom walls of the housing 1 and the filter cavity 12 enclosed by the partition 11 form an annular structure, therefore the filter element 3 is also an annular structure adapted to the horizontal cross-section of the filter cavity 12.

[0042] By installing a sewage interception basket 2 at the top port of the housing 1, large-sized debris carried in the incoming rainwater can be initially intercepted. The rainwater enters the filter chamber 12 through the water passage 21 at the bottom of the sewage interception basket 2, and is then purified by the filter element 3 inside the filter chamber 12 before being discharged through the water outlet 13 at the bottom of the housing 1. This effectively treats non-point source pollution caused by urban rainwater runoff. The device adopts a modular design, has a simple structure, is easy to implement, can be installed on the basis of the existing rainwater well A, and is convenient for initial installation and subsequent maintenance. It is also low in cost.

[0043] Typically, initial rainwater contains a high amount of harmful pollutants. In this application, the filter chamber 12 is arranged around the outside of the partition 11. When the initial water volume is small, the rainwater enters from the edge of the intercepting basket 2 and then enters the filter chamber 12 through the water holes 21. The filter element 3 then purifies the initial rainwater before it is discharged. When the water volume is large in the later stages, some rainwater will directly flow into the central area of ​​the intercepting basket 2 and enter the channel formed by the inner side of the partition 11 through the water holes 21 before being discharged. Since not all rainwater needs to enter the filter chamber 12 before being discharged, the amount of mud, sand and other particulate matter entering the filter chamber 12 can be effectively reduced. This helps to increase the service life of the filter element 3 and extend the maintenance and replacement cycle of the filter element 3.

[0044] It should be noted that when the initial water volume is small and the water flow is slow, the silt will gradually settle down as the rainwater flows along the road, and less silt will enter the intercepting basket 2. At this time, the initial rainwater enters the filter chamber 12 from the edge of the intercepting basket 2, and even if there is a small amount of silt, it will not have a significant impact on the filter element 3. However, when the water volume is large and the water flow is rapid in the later stages, the rainwater will carry a large amount of silt as it flows along the road, and more silt will enter the intercepting basket 2. If all the rainwater were to enter the filter chamber 12 at this time, it would cause a large amount of silt to accumulate on the upper surface of the filter element 3, thereby affecting the filtration performance of the filter element 3.

[0045] According to some embodiments of this application, the filter element 3 includes a coarse filter element 31 and a fine filter element 32. The fine filter element 32 is disposed at the bottom of the filter chamber 12, and the coarse filter element 31 is disposed above the fine filter element 32. Because the filter element 3 is divided into a coarse filter element 31 and a fine filter element 32, and arranged sequentially along the water flow direction, the coarse filter element 31 is more prone to failure during use. Since the coarse filter element 31 can use inexpensive filter media such as filter cotton, the cost of using the filter element 3 can be reduced by replacing the coarse filter element 31 in a timely manner.

[0046] According to some embodiments of this application, the housing 1 is installed inside the road storm drain A via a support member. The support member includes an annular frame 4 or a support base 5 adapted to the shape of the housing 1. The support member is installed on the wall of the storm drain A via fasteners 6. One form of the support member is an annular frame 4, and another form is multiple support bases 5, both of which can be fixed to the wall of the storm drain A with bolts. During installation, the housing 1 can be directly placed into the storm drain A, so that the top edge of the housing 1 hangs on the annular frame 4 or the support base 5.

[0047] According to some embodiments of this application, the top of the box body 1 is provided with an outwardly extending flange, and the box body 1 is installed in the road storm drain A through the flange. By providing a flange at the top edge of the box body 1, the box body 1 is supported by the lower side of the flange contacting the annular frame 4 or the support seat 5 during installation.

[0048] According to some embodiments of this application, the size of the intercepting basket 2 is adapted to the size of the top port of the housing 1. By designing the intercepting basket 2 to match the size of the top port of the housing 1, rainwater entering from the rain inlet will first flow into the intercepting basket 2, and then into the filter chamber 12 or the channel enclosed by the inner side of the partition 11.

[0049] According to some embodiments of this application, the height of the upper surface of the filter element 3 is lower than the height of the partition 11. Since the height of the partition 11 can be understood as the height of the filter chamber 12, the above design allows for a certain space above the upper surface of the filter element 3, which can serve as a buffer cavity for rainwater to enter the filter chamber 12.

[0050] According to some embodiments of this application, the height of the partition 11 is lower than the height of the housing 1, and the intercepting basket 2 is located between the partition 11 and the top of the housing 1. Using the above scheme, the space between the top of the partition 11 and the top of the housing 1 serves as the design space for the intercepting basket 2. This allows the intercepting basket 2 to be designed with a certain depth, serving as an accumulation space to accommodate the intercepted waste, thereby improving the waste-holding capacity of the intercepting basket 2.

[0051] According to some embodiments of this application, the top of the wastewater intercepting basket 2 is provided with an outwardly extending flange, and the wastewater intercepting basket 2 is hung on the top of the box body 1 through the flange. By providing a flange at the top edge of the wastewater intercepting basket 2, the wastewater intercepting basket 2 is supported by the lower side of the flange contacting the top of the box body 1 during installation.

[0052] According to some embodiments of this application, a fixed handle 22 is provided at the top of the intercepting basket 2. Specifically, fixed handles 22 can be provided on opposite sides of the top of the intercepting basket 2 to facilitate lifting the intercepting basket 2 by hand, thereby facilitating cleaning and maintenance of the intercepting basket 2.

[0053] According to some embodiments of this application, a movable handle 14 is provided on the side wall of the housing 1, and the movable handle 14 is positioned higher than the upper surface of the filter element 3. Specifically, movable handles 14 can be provided on two opposite inner sides of the housing 1 to facilitate lifting the housing 1 from the rainwater well A, thereby facilitating the installation and disassembly of the housing 1 and the maintenance of the filter element 3. The aforementioned movable handle 14 refers to its rotatable connection with the side wall of the housing 1. Since the movable handle 14 is located above the filter element 3, it can be rotated to fit against the inner wall of the housing 1 when not in use, thereby avoiding any interference with the installation and disassembly of the filter element 3.

[0054] The specific embodiments described above further illustrate the purpose, technical solution, and beneficial effects of this utility model. It should be understood that the above description is only a specific embodiment of this utility model and is not intended to limit the scope of protection of this utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the scope of protection of this utility model.
