Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of water distribution devices, and in particular to a multi-directional water distribution device. Background Technology
[0002] Pumping stations are devices used for collecting, lifting, transporting, and discharging sewage, rainwater, river water, and seawater. They can basically solve problems such as sewage discharge, flood drainage, irrigation, and water allocation in areas without gravity flow, and their applications are very wide. However, due to the single operating condition of pumping stations, in most cases, water from area A (inlet pipe direction) can only be lifted to area B (outlet pipe direction) through the pumping station, and bidirectional or even multidirectional water allocation is not possible. If water needs to be transferred from area B to area A, a new lifting pumping station needs to be built, which greatly increases the investment and subsequent maintenance costs.
[0003] In recent years, with the continuous development of society and economy, various regions have put forward higher requirements for ecological improvement and environmental restoration. The water landscape of parks, wetlands and lakes around rivers, lakes and seas has become particularly important. To simultaneously meet multiple needs such as landscape water circulation in parks and lakes, flood control and drainage in parks, and habitat for migratory birds, it is necessary to continuously pump water and drain water through pumping stations. This cannot be achieved by relying solely on traditional single-direction pumping stations. Utility Model Content

The pumping station is connected to the sedimentation tank and is located downstream of the sedimentation tank. The outlet valve well is connected to the pumping station and is located downstream of the pumping station. The outlet valve well is used to connect to the drainage pipes of each water area.

[0031] The following detailed description of some embodiments of the present invention is provided in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Unless otherwise specified, the following embodiments and features can be combined with each other.
[0032] Example 1
[0033] Existing pumping stations cannot achieve bidirectional or even multidirectional water distribution. To simultaneously meet multiple needs such as landscape water circulation in park lakes, flood control and drainage in parks, and habitat for migratory birds, it is necessary to continuously pump and drain water through the pumping stations. This cannot be achieved by relying solely on traditional single-directional pumping stations.
[0034] In view of this, the present invention provides a multi-directional water diversion device suitable for water areas surrounding rivers, lakes, and seas, including: multiple water intakes, a sedimentation tank 200, a pumping station 500, and an outlet valve well 600. The multiple water intakes are respectively located in each water area. The sedimentation tank 200 is connected to the multiple water intakes. The pumping station 500 is connected to the sedimentation tank 200 and is located downstream of the sedimentation tank 200. The outlet valve well 600 is connected to the pumping station 500 and is located downstream of the pumping station 500. The outlet valve well 600 is used to connect to the drainage pipes of each water area.
[0035] Water from each water body can enter the sedimentation tank 200 through its respective intake, then enter the pumping station 500, and finally flow into different water bodies through the outlet valve well 600. The multi-directional water diversion device collects water from each water body through the sedimentation tank 200 and uses the pumping function of the pumping station 500 to achieve the purpose of water intake and drainage from different water bodies, meeting the requirements of multi-directional water intake and drainage, realizing water volume allocation under various operating conditions, and achieving water circulation between different water bodies.
[0036] This embodiment illustrates the principle of water allocation for three water bodies, namely A, B, and C. The principle of water allocation for more water bodies is the same.
[0037] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 A water intake 110 is provided in water area A, a second water intake 120 is provided in water area B, and a third water intake 130 is provided in water area C. A grating 140 is installed above each of the three water intakes. The first water intake 110 is connected to the sedimentation tank 200 via a first inlet pipe 150, the second water intake 120 is connected to the sedimentation tank 200 via a second inlet pipe 160, and the third water intake 130 is connected to the sedimentation tank 200 via a third inlet pipe 170. The dimensions of each water intake and each inlet pipe are determined based on water volume calculations, and the elevation of each water intake is not higher than the normal water level. Each inlet pipe is equipped with an inlet gate: a first inlet gate 181, a second inlet gate 182, and a third inlet gate 183. Each inlet gate is a manual / electric integrated gate, equipped with a suitable model of hoist. Water from different water areas enters the sedimentation tank 200 sequentially through the corresponding water intake, inlet pipe and inlet gate. The sedimentation tank 200 has a sedimentation zone 210 of a certain height at the bottom.
[0038] Pump station 500 is an integrated lift pump station, and is connected to sedimentation tank 200 via connecting pipe 300. Water from each water area passes through sedimentation tank 200 and then enters pump station 500 via connecting pipe 300. The flow rate of pump station 500 is determined based on the allocated water volume. A basket screen 400 is installed at the end of connecting pipe 300 that connects to pump station 500.
[0039] A water outlet valve well 600 is installed at the rear end of pump station 500, and water from pump station 500 enters the water outlet valve well 600 through pipelines. Water outlet gate valves are installed between the drainage pipes of water areas A, B, and C and the water outlet valve well 600, namely, a first water outlet gate valve 610, a second water outlet gate valve 620, and a third water outlet gate valve 630. The first water outlet gate valve 610 is located between the first drainage pipe 710 and the water outlet valve well 600, the second water outlet gate valve 620 is located between the second drainage pipe 720 and the water outlet valve well 600, and the third water outlet gate valve 630 is located between the third drainage pipe 730 and the water outlet valve well 600.
[0040] Each of the three water areas, A, B, and C, is equipped with a water level gauge to monitor the water level in real time. When a water level gauge detects an abnormal water level (too high or too low), water can be allocated between the various water areas through a multi-directional water diversion device.
[0041] Each inlet gate, outlet valve, and level gauge is electrically connected to the control system, thus enabling full automation. Water volume in each area is allocated in real time based on the set water level. This intelligent management approach facilitates water allocation between different areas, reducing subsequent operation and maintenance costs.
[0042] Artificial lakes are often constructed in parks and green spaces near rivers or oceans to meet various needs, such as landscaping or bird habitats. These lakes frequently require water intake or drainage from rivers, oceans, or other bodies of water. Multi-directional water diversion devices can meet the requirements of water intake or drainage from one or more directions. For example, water can be drawn from water area A and discharged into water areas B and C. The control system opens the first inlet gate 181, the second outlet gate valve 620, and the third outlet gate valve 630. Water from water area A enters the sedimentation tank 200 through the first intake port 110, the first inlet pipe 150, and the first inlet gate 181. It then enters the pump station 500 through the connecting pipe 300, then the outlet valve well 600, and finally enters water area B through the second outlet gate valve 620 and the second drainage pipe 720, and water area C through the third outlet gate valve 630 and the third drainage pipe 730. Water can also be drawn from water areas B and C and discharged into water area A. The control system opens the second inlet gate 182, the third inlet gate 183, and the first outlet gate valve 610. Water from water area B enters the sedimentation tank 200 through the second intake 120, the second inlet pipe 160, and the second inlet gate 182, then enters the pump station 500 through the connecting pipe 300, then enters the outlet valve well 600, and finally enters water area A through the first outlet gate valve 610 and the first drain pipe 710. Water from water area C enters the sedimentation tank 200 through the third intake 130, the third inlet pipe 170, and the third inlet gate 183, then enters the pump station 500 through the connecting pipe 300, then enters the outlet valve well 600, and finally enters water area A through the first outlet gate valve 610 and the first drain pipe 710.
[0043] The multi-directional water regulation device avoids the difficulties in water intake or drainage caused by elevation issues, and completely realizes the purpose of water circulation in rivers and artificial lakes around the ocean. At the same time, it meets the landscape needs of parks and green spaces, provides a good environment for migratory birds to inhabit, realizes water volume regulation under various working conditions, and completes water circulation between various water areas.
[0044] The steps for setting up a multi-directional water diversion device are as follows: construct a new water intake; construct a new sedimentation tank of 200 mm; construct a new inlet gate; construct a new integrated booster pump station; construct a new outlet valve well of 600 mm; install a water level gauge; and connect to an automated control system.
[0045] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model, and are not intended to limit it. Although the utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some or all of the technical features therein. Such modifications or substitutions do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model.
