Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of linear drainage ditch technology, and specifically to a modular linear drainage ditch. Background Technology

[0002] Linear drainage ditches are drainage facilities commonly used in drainage systems for large areas such as roads, squares, and parking lots. They are long, narrow drainage structures, usually made of concrete, plastic, or steel, and are primarily used to collect and discharge rainwater and other liquids to prevent water immersion and accumulation. The characteristics of linear drainage ditches include simple structure, easy maintenance, strong corrosion resistance, and good drainage effect.

[0003] A search revealed Chinese patent CN205557779U, which discloses a linear drainage ditch, including a ditch body and a cover. The ditch body is U-shaped, and the cover covers the opening of the ditch body. The bottom of the ditch body has multiple drainage channels arranged in a rectangular structure. The bottom of the ditch body has a U-shaped filter screen. When a large amount of rainwater flows into the ditch body, it will drain through the ditch body and drainage channels together. The filter screen can filter out large impurities to prevent impurities from settling and pushing in the drainage channels. The drainage holes on the cover facilitate the flow of rainwater into the ditch body. Moreover, the cover body, made of corrugated plate, can improve the load-bearing capacity of the road surface and has better compressive strength, ensuring the safe passage of vehicles without the need for a very thick cover body.

[0004] Existing linear drainage ditches are mostly monolithic cast-in-place or single resin concrete components. The volume and weight of monolithic structures result in poor flexibility during transportation, installation, and subsequent expansion and renovation. Furthermore, the cover is fixed to the ditch body by bolts or welding. If welding is used, disassembly is inconvenient and destructive operations are required during dredging, which increases maintenance costs. Based on this, a modular linear drainage ditch is proposed to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0005] Based on the above description, this utility model provides a modular linear drainage ditch to solve the problem that existing linear drainage ditches are mostly integral cast-in-place or single resin concrete components. The volume and weight of the integral structure result in poor flexibility in transportation, installation and subsequent expansion and renovation. In addition, the cover is fixed to the ditch body by bolts or welding. If welding is used, it is not only inconvenient to disassemble, but also requires destructive operation during dredging, which increases the maintenance cost.

[0006] The technical solution of this utility model to solve the above-mentioned technical problems is as follows: a modular linear drainage ditch, comprising two ditch bodies and a cover body disposed on the upper side of the two ditch bodies;

[0007] Both ends of the two opposite sides of the two trenches are provided with connecting mechanisms for connecting the two trenches, and both sides of the cover are provided with reinforcing mechanisms for improving the load-bearing strength of the cover.

[0008] The connecting mechanism includes two sets of slots opened at the left and right ends of the opposite side of the two grooves, a locking member for aligning the two grooves, and a locking member for locking the two locked grooves.

[0009] The two sets of slots are located at the upper and lower ends of one side of the groove.

[0010] The above technical solutions, using modular splicing, not only significantly reduce transportation difficulties through standardized prefabricated modules, but also make transportation, on-site handling, and installation more efficient.

[0011] Based on the above technical solution, the present invention can be further improved as follows.

[0015] Through the above technical solution, the locking component can facilitate the quick pre-connection between two adjacent grooves, and facilitate the subsequent locking component to fix the two adjacent grooves.

[0016] Furthermore, the size of the inner cavity of the groove is adapted to the size of the convex plate, the size of the locking block is adapted to the size of the inner cavity of the square groove, and multiple locking blocks correspond one-to-one with multiple square grooves. The left and right side walls of the inner cavity of the square groove are provided with protrusions adapted to the size of the arc groove.

[0017] A sealing ring is provided inside the groove and on the outside of the convex plate.

[0018] The above technical solution establishes a reliable waterproof barrier by setting a sealing ring between adjacent modules, effectively preventing groundwater leakage.

[0019] Furthermore, the locking component includes two connecting blocks, a locking rod fixed at the upper and lower ends of the two connecting blocks on opposite sides, two threaded holes opened on one side of the two connecting blocks, and a connecting bolt disposed in the threaded holes.

[0020] The above technical solution enables the locking mechanism to secure the two grooves together, ensuring the reliability of the connection between them.

[0021] Furthermore, the connecting block has a Z-shaped cross-section, and the outer diameter of the locking rod is adapted to the inner diameter of the locking groove.

[0022] Through the above technical solution, the setting of the clamp can locate the position of the connecting block, prevent the connecting block from shifting, and ensure the stability of the connection between two adjacent trenches.

[0023] Furthermore, the reinforcing mechanism includes steel plates fixed on the left and right sides of the cover, multiple threaded grooves opened on the L-shaped grooves on both sides, multiple transverse ribs fixed between the two steel plates on opposite sides, and positioning components for positioning the cover.

[0024] The upper surface of the steel plate is threaded with a plurality of stainless steel wing bolts, one end of which passes through and extends into the threaded groove.

[0025] Through the above technical solutions, the setting of steel plates on both sides and transverse ribs improves the overall bending stiffness of the cover, greatly enhances the load-bearing capacity of the cover, and ensures the safe passage of vehicles. The tool-free installation of stainless steel wing bolts not only improves installation efficiency, but also makes it easier for workers to separate the cover from the ditch when dredging, increasing the convenience during use.

[0026] Furthermore, the positioning element includes two W-shaped positioning blocks fixed to the side of the steel plate facing the trench, and two positioning grooves formed on the L-shaped groove.

[0027] The positioning block provided by the above technical solution can quickly position the cover plate when it is fixed to the trench, which facilitates the screwing in of the stainless steel wing bolts.

[0028] Compared with the prior art, the technical solution of this application has the following beneficial technical effects:

[0029] 1. The modular splicing method not only facilitates the transportation of linear drainage ditches, but also improves the flexibility during installation. The sealing rings set between adjacent modules can effectively prevent groundwater leakage. The snap-fit ​​parts can facilitate the quick connection between two adjacent ditches, and the cooperation between the snap-fit ​​parts and the locking parts can fix the two ditches together, ensuring the reliability of the connection between the two ditches.

[0030] 2. The addition of steel plates on both sides and transverse ribs enhances the overall bending stiffness of the cover, greatly improving its load-bearing capacity and ensuring the safe passage of vehicles. The tool-free installation of stainless steel wing bolts not only improves installation efficiency but also facilitates the separation of the cover from the ditch during dredging, increasing convenience during use.
