Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of forest fire prevention technology, specifically a forest fire emergency water storage device with a rapid water intake that can collect rainwater. Background Technology

[0002] Forest fires are one of the major threats to forest ecosystems. They not only burn down large areas of forest and damage the ecological environment, but also pose a serious threat to people's lives and property. Therefore, forest fire prevention is of paramount importance. Among forest fire prevention measures, fire pools, as important infrastructure, are of great significance for extinguishing fires in a timely manner and reducing fire losses.

[0003] Existing forest fire fighting water tanks have some problems in collecting natural rainwater, especially the easy entry of leaves into the container, which not only affects the rainwater collection efficiency but also blocks the container's outlet, preventing the tank from being replenished normally. To solve this problem, some designers have installed net covers on the top of the container to prevent leaves and other debris from entering; however, traditional net cover designs often have the problem of difficult cleaning. Due to the special nature of the forest environment, leaves easily accumulate on the net cover, and if not cleaned in time, it will affect the rainwater collection effect. Therefore, regular manual cleaning has become a necessary maintenance measure. However, manual cleaning is not only time-consuming and labor-intensive, but also extremely difficult in some remote or hard-to-reach forest areas. Therefore, a forest fire fighting emergency water storage device with a rapid water intake that can collect rainwater is proposed to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0004] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this invention provides a forest fire emergency water storage device with a rapid water intake that can collect rainwater, thereby overcoming the deficiencies in the aforementioned existing technologies.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows:

[0006] A forest fire emergency water storage device with a quick water intake that can collect rainwater includes a water storage tank, the top of which is equipped with a rainwater collection mechanism.

[0007] The rainwater collection mechanism includes an installation ring disposed at the top of the water storage tank. The inner wall of the installation ring has a plurality of grooves, and a slider penetrating to the inner side of each groove is slidably installed inside the grooves. A frustum cover is fixedly installed inside the sliders. The frustum cover slides inside the installation ring via the sliders. A plurality of mesh screens are fixedly installed on the outer wall of the frustum cover. The mesh screens are all located at one end near the bottom of the frustum cover. A vertical rod is fixedly installed at the center of the bottom of the frustum cover. A floating ball is fixedly installed at the bottom of the vertical rod. The floating ball is located at one end near the top of the water storage tank.

[0008] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: the water storage tank is used to store fire-fighting water, the truncated cone cover collects rainwater and guides it into the water storage tank through a strainer, while the installation ring prevents rainwater loss. The strainer can also block leaves and other impurities from entering the water storage tank. When the water storage tank is full, the floating ball rises, pushing the truncated cone cover to rise through the vertical rod. The slider ensures that the truncated cone cover slides stably within the installation ring without falling off. After the truncated cone cover rises to be level with the top of the installation ring, the outer side is no longer blocked, and rainwater directly washes away fallen leaves, achieving efficient collection and utilization of rainwater, while reducing the frequency of personnel cleaning and maintenance.

[0009] Based on the above technical solution, the present invention can be further improved as follows.

[0010] Furthermore, a plurality of hook blocks are fixedly installed on the outer wall of the water storage tank, and mounting frames are slidably installed on the outside of each hook block, with fire equipment boxes fixedly installed on the surface of each mounting frame.

[0011] Furthermore, an external pipe is fixedly installed on the outer wall of the water storage tank, extending into the interior of the fire equipment box, and the external pipe is connected to the fire hose inside the fire equipment box.

[0012] Furthermore, a plurality of No. 1 connecting blocks are fixedly installed on the outside of the water storage tank near its bottom, and each of the No. 1 connecting blocks has a threaded fixing bolt extending to its bottom.

[0013] Furthermore, a plurality of second connecting blocks are fixedly installed on the outer side of the water storage tank near its top, and a third connecting block located on top of the plurality of second connecting blocks is fixedly installed on the outer side of the mounting ring. Each of the third connecting blocks has a connecting bolt threaded into the interior of the second connecting block.

[0014] Furthermore, the water storage tank can also be designed as an inflatable structure, with an air valve core fixedly installed on the outside of the inflatable structure, extending into its interior, and the air valve core located at one end near its bottom. Attached Figure Description

[0022] The principles and features of this utility model are described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The examples given are only for explaining this utility model and are not intended to limit the scope of this utility model.

[0023] Example 1, as Figures 1-4 As shown, a forest fire emergency water storage device with a quick water intake is provided, which can collect rainwater and includes a water storage tank 1. A rainwater collection mechanism is provided on the top of the water storage tank 1.

[0024] Specifically, the rainwater collection mechanism includes an installation ring 2 set at the top of the water storage tank 1. The inner wall of the installation ring 2 has a number of grooves 3. Each groove 3 has a sliding block 4 that extends through it. A frustum cover 5 is fixedly installed inside the sliding block 4. The frustum cover 5 slides inside the installation ring 2 through the sliding block 4. A number of mesh screens 6 are fixedly installed on the outer wall of the frustum cover 5. Each mesh screen 6 is located at one end near the bottom of the frustum cover 5. A vertical rod 7 is fixedly installed at the center of the bottom of the frustum cover 5. A floating ball 8 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the vertical rod 7. The floating ball 8 is located at one end near the top of the water storage tank 1.

[0025] In use, the water storage tank 1 is used to store fire-fighting water. When it rains, rainwater falls on the top of the truncated cone 5 and then slides along its outer wall. The sliding rainwater flows into the interior of the water storage tank 1 through multiple mesh screens 6. At this time, the installed mounting ring 2 can block the water falling from the outer wall of the truncated cone 5 to prevent rainwater from being lost and wasted. The multiple mesh screens 6 can prevent leaves and other debris from falling into the interior of the water storage tank 1. When the interior of the water storage tank 1 is full, the floating ball 8 will float up. The floating ball 8 will push the truncated cone 5 up through the vertical rod 7. At this time, multiple sliders 4 will restrict the truncated cone 5 to slide inside the mounting ring 2, so that the truncated cone 5 will not detach from the interior of the mounting ring 2. When the truncated cone 5 rises to the point where its bottom is level with the top of the mounting ring 2, the outer side of the truncated cone 5 will lose its shielding. Subsequently, the rainwater falling from the outer wall of the truncated cone 5 can wash away the fallen leaves.

[0026] It should be noted that the radius of the water storage tank 1 is 1 meter and the height is 2 meters. At this time, the capacity of the water storage tank 1 is calculated to be approximately 6.28 cubic meters according to the formula V=πr²h.

[0027] Example 2, as Figures 1-3 As shown, this embodiment is a further improvement based on embodiment 1, and its specific details are as follows:

[0028] The outer wall of the water storage tank 1 is fixedly installed with a number of hook blocks 9, and each hook block 9 is slidably installed with an installation frame 10. Fire equipment boxes 11 are fixedly installed on the surface of the installation frames 10.

[0029] With this configuration, multiple mounting frames 10 can be connected to the outside of multiple hook blocks 9 to support and install the fire equipment box 11 on the outer wall of the water storage tank 1. The fire equipment box 11 is equipped with fire extinguishers, fire blankets, fire mops and fire hoses to respond to fires in a timely manner.

[0030] Example 3, as Figure 2 and Figure 5 As shown, this embodiment is a further improvement based on embodiment 2, and its specific details are as follows:

[0031] An external pipe 12 is fixedly installed on the outer wall of the water storage tank 1, which extends into the fire equipment box 11 and is connected to the fire hose inside the fire equipment box 11.

[0032] With this setup, the water stored inside the reservoir 1 can be supplied to the fire hose through the external pipe 12. Once the fire hose is deployed, water can be sprayed to contain fires in distant areas.

[0033] Example 4, as Figures 1-3 As shown, this embodiment is a further improvement based on embodiment 1, and its specific details are as follows:

[0034] Multiple No. 1 connecting blocks 13 are fixedly installed on the outside of the water storage tank 1 near its bottom, and each No. 1 connecting block 13 is threaded with a fixing bolt 14 that extends to its bottom.

[0035] With this setup, multiple fixing bolts 14 are driven through the interior of the first connecting block 13 and then into the ground, which can fix the bottom of the fire water tank.

[0036] Example 5, as Figures 1-3 As shown, this embodiment is a further improvement based on embodiment 1, and its specific details are as follows:

[0037] Multiple No. 2 connecting blocks 15 are fixedly installed on the outside of the water storage tank 1 near its top. A No. 3 connecting block 16 located on top of the multiple No. 2 connecting blocks 15 is fixedly installed on the outside of the mounting ring 2. Each of the multiple No. 3 connecting blocks 16 has a connecting bolt 17 threaded into the inside of the No. 2 connecting block 15.

[0038] With this configuration, multiple No. 3 connecting blocks 16 and No. 2 connecting blocks 15 can be connected and fixed by multiple connecting bolts 17. The connection of multiple No. 3 connecting blocks 16 and No. 2 connecting blocks 15 can fix the rainwater collection mechanism to the top of the water storage tank 1.

[0039] Example 6, as Figure 3 As shown, this embodiment is a further improvement based on embodiment 1, and its specific details are as follows:

[0040] The water storage tank 1 can also be designed as an inflatable structure. The inflatable structure water storage tank 1 has a valve core that extends through to its interior and is located at one end near its bottom.

[0041] This design, which makes the water storage tank 1 an inflatable structure, facilitates its operation and relocation. Air can be pumped into it through the valve core.

[0042] It should be noted that the inflatable water storage tank 1 is inflated before use.

[0043] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described above, it is understood that the above embodiments are exemplary and should not be construed as limiting the present invention. Those skilled in the art can make changes, modifications, substitutions and variations to the above embodiments within the scope of the present invention.
