Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of environmental protection equipment for building construction, and in particular to a semi-enclosed car wash station. Background Technology
[0002] With increasingly stringent environmental protection requirements nationwide, environmental protection and dust control at construction sites have become crucial tasks. Consequently, various construction vehicles must be washed upon entering and leaving the site, leading to the emergence of various vehicle washing stations. Existing technology, such as the Chinese Patent Publication No. CN221497949U, describes a movable new type of construction vehicle washing trough, including a trough base. The trough base provides a cleaning platform for construction vehicles. The walls of the trough base have both a sludge removal trough and a sludge accumulation trough. The sludge removal trough provides a channel for removing residual sludge after cleaning, while the sludge accumulation trough allows wastewater to settle and sludge to accumulate.
[0003] Regarding the aforementioned technologies, the sludge in the sludge accumulation tank needs time to settle, and then it needs to be manually removed from the sludge removal tank. Therefore, if the sludge in the sludge accumulation tank is not cleaned in time, it will have a certain impact on subsequent vehicle washing, and specific operators are still required to handle it later. The inventors believe that there is a drawback in that the sludge cannot be directly cleaned. Summary of the Invention
[0004] To achieve rapid removal of sludge, this application provides a semi-enclosed car wash platform.
[0005] The semi-enclosed car wash station provided in this application adopts the following technical solution:
[0006] A semi-enclosed car wash platform includes a canopy, a car wash assembly, and a water circulation system assembly. The car wash assembly includes a car wash trough, a platform frame, and spray pipes. The platform frame is located above the car wash trough. The car wash trough includes multiple rows of flushing channels below the platform frame and a sludge accumulation channel outside the platform frame. Flushing nozzles are installed in the flushing channel area and are installed under the platform frame. The flushing channel has a sludge outlet on the side near the sludge accumulation channel, and the highest point of the sludge accumulation channel is lower than the height of the sludge outlet. The sludge accumulation channel has a water outlet connected to the water circulation system.
[0007] By adopting the above technical solution, when a vehicle needs to be washed at the car wash station, the sludge mixed with mud generated during washing will fall into the sludge flushing trough with the water flow. Then, the sludge will be further washed and diluted by the water sprayed from the sludge flushing nozzles above the trough. At this time, the sludge will slide towards the sludge outlet due to the water flow. Since the highest point of the sludge collection trough is lower than the height of the sludge outlet, the sludge will naturally slide into the sludge collection trough and settle to the bottom of the sludge collection trough due to its own gravity. The muddy water will flow into the water circulation system through the sludge collection trough outlet for further filtration and sedimentation. This solution achieves automatic and rapid washing and collection of sludge and sand accumulated in the car wash trough, reducing car wash waiting time and improving washing efficiency.
[0008] Optionally, a detachable inclined guide plate is installed in the flushing trough. The inclined guide plate is rotatably connected at the silt outlet. The inclined guide plate is provided with an inclined guide plate handle on the other side of the silt outlet. A positioning pin is provided on the inclined guide plate handle. The flushing trough is provided with a plurality of positioning holes on its side wall for positioning pins.
[0009] By adopting the above technical solution, the inclined guide plate is installed in the flushing trough and fixed to the positioning holes of the trough wall by positioning pins. Since there are multiple positioning holes on the trough wall for the positioning pins of the inclined guide plate, the tilt angle of the inclined guide plate can be adjusted on site by positioning different positioning holes by pins according to the flushing needs. As a result, the sludge will slide towards the outlet according to its own gravity, thus achieving different flushing effects of the flushing trough according to the needs of the site.
[0010] Optionally, the side wall of the flushing trough is provided with an installation groove, and the inclined guide plate is provided with an installation round shaft embedded in the installation groove at the position of the installation groove.
[0011] By adopting the above technical solution, the inclined guide plate can be embedded into the installation groove on the side wall of the flushing tank by installing the round shaft. Similarly, the inclined guide plate can also be quickly disassembled by installing the groove. When the flushing tank needs to be cleaned and rinsed, the inclined guide plate can be disassembled to achieve the purpose of quickly cleaning and rinsing the flushing tank.
[0012] Optionally, the sedimentation tank is embedded with a sedimentation frame, and the sedimentation frame is provided with handles at both ends.
[0013] By adopting the above technical solution, the sedimentation tank has a sedimentation frame with handles at both ends. The frame can intercept large particles of silt. When too much silt accumulates in the frame, the frame can be lifted out of the sedimentation tank by pulling the handles and cleaned. This achieves the effect of quickly cleaning the sedimentation tank, effectively reducing labor costs and improving flushing efficiency.
[0014] Optionally, the canopy includes a support frame, mudguards, and infrared beam sensors, with the support frame fixed to the platform frame.
[0015] By adopting the above technical solution, the supporting frame of the shed is connected to the platform frame of the car wash station; mudguards are installed on the shed to block mud when washing vehicles, preventing mud from splashing everywhere and polluting the construction site, and also to prevent the washing water mist from spreading and to maximize the retention of water resources on the washing platform; an infrared sensor is installed at the entrance of the shed, which can output a signal to the high-pressure water pump switch controller by measuring the depth of the vehicle entering the shed, realizing the effect of automated washing and reducing labor costs.
[0016] Optionally, the outer wall of the mudguard is provided with a sound insulation plate.
[0017] By adopting the above technical solution, a sound insulation board is covered on the outer wall of the mudguard, which can reduce noise when washing the vehicle.
[0018] Optionally, the spray pipe fitting includes a flushing nozzle, a sludge flushing nozzle, and a water supply pipe. The flushing nozzle is distributed on the shed body and embedded in the platform frame, with its opening facing the interior of the shed body. The sludge flushing nozzle is distributed on the platform frame above the sludge flushing tank, with its opening facing the sludge flushing tank.
[0019] By adopting the above technical solution, the spray nozzles installed on the canopy are symmetrically distributed on both sides of the canopy, and can be used to wash the top and sides of the vehicle body; the spray nozzles installed on the platform frame are embedded in the frame and face upwards, and can be used to wash the vehicle tires and chassis; the sludge flushing nozzles installed on the lower surface of the platform frame in the sludge flushing tank area can be used to flush the sludge deposited in the sludge flushing tank. The water supply pipes of the above-mentioned spray pipes are all connected to the main water supply pipe of the spray system.
[0020] Optionally, the water circulation system components include a first sedimentation tank, a second sedimentation tank, a circulating water tank, a water pump, and a main water supply pipeline; the first sedimentation tank is connected to the outlet of the sedimentation tank, the second sedimentation tank is connected to the first sedimentation tank, and the circulating water tank is connected to the second sedimentation tank; the water pump is placed in the circulating water tank and is connected to the main water supply pipeline.
[0021] By adopting the above technical solution, the outlet of the first sedimentation tank is connected to the sludge accumulation trough. When the sludge accumulation trough is full, it flows into the first sedimentation tank. When the sewage flows into the first sedimentation tank, the water flow velocity decreases, and larger particles of silt and other impurities in the sewage will begin to settle to the bottom of the tank under the action of gravity. The second sedimentation tank is connected to the first sedimentation tank. When the sewage in the first sedimentation tank is full, the sewage that has undergone static sedimentation on the upper layer will flow into the second sedimentation tank. At this time, the water flow velocity will decrease again. The sewage at this time only contains some small suspended solids and some organic matter. These small particles will further settle in the stable water body. The circulating water tank is connected to the second sedimentation tank. When the water in the second sedimentation tank is full, the clear water that has undergone sedimentation on the upper layer of the second sedimentation tank will flow into the circulating water tank. A water pump is placed in the circulating water tank and connected to the main water supply pipeline. Therefore, the water pump can pump the clear water in the circulating water tank and supply it to the spray pipes through the main water supply pipeline for washing vehicles, thereby realizing the recycling of water resources.
[0022] Optionally, the first sedimentation tank is provided with a filter frame below the outlet, the filter frame has filter holes on both sides, and the filter frame is equipped with a filter frame handle.
[0023] By adopting the above technical solution, the water in the sedimentation tank will flow into the first sedimentation tank through the outlet. However, considering that the sedimentation tank can only initially filter sewage and cannot completely filter sewage, a filter frame is installed in the first sedimentation tank. This frame can filter sewage when it enters the sedimentation tank and slow down the flow of sewage into the sedimentation tank, thus enabling better sedimentation. When too much sludge accumulates in the filter frame, the frame can be lifted out of the sedimentation tank through the handle on the frame, which can quickly clean the sludge in the frame, improve the efficiency of sewage sedimentation, and thus improve the efficiency of water circulation.
[0024] In summary, this application includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects:
[0025] 1. This application achieves rapid flushing and collection of sludge by combining various modular components such as flushing trough, spray pipe fittings, inclined guide plate, sludge accumulation trough, and filter frame, thereby improving the flushing efficiency of the car wash platform, solving the problem that traditional car wash troughs cannot quickly collect and clean sludge, and reducing the labor costs of construction units.
[0026] 2. This application reduces the splashing of car wash wastewater and prevents air pollution caused by the atomization of wastewater by using mudguards on the canopy. At the same time, it can collect wastewater and reduce the waste of water resources.
[0027] 3. This application achieves noise reduction by installing sound insulation panels on the shed. Attached Figure Description
