Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of sound barrier technology, specifically to an intelligent permeable support system for highway sound barriers. Background Technology
[0002] The "Intelligent Permeable Support System for Highway Sound Barriers" is an innovative concept that integrates environmental protection, intelligence, and infrastructure safety. It aims to solve the key challenges faced by traditional sound barriers, especially poor drainage and structural safety issues, while improving their functionality and sustainability.
[0003] For example, CN214695239U discloses a sound barrier for highways, comprising multiple columns fixed to one side of the highway; multiple bases fixed between adjacent columns and located at the bottom of the columns; multiple sound barrier bodies mounted on corresponding bases and movable along the length of the columns; a shock-absorbing device on the side of each sound barrier body closest to the highway, and a first sound barrier plate rotatably connected to the top of each sound barrier body; and a first rib on the side of each base furthest from the highway. The shock-absorbing device effectively reduces damage caused by accidents, and the continuous arrangement of multiple sound barrier bodies attenuates noise generated by vehicles traveling in a predetermined area. The first sound barrier plate can rotate on the sound barrier body to adapt to different environmental conditions; it strengthens the overall structure, resists strong convective weather such as strong winds, and ensures a long service life.
[0004] However, the following problems were found in the implementation of the relevant technology: it is difficult to automatically sense and scrape out the debris blocking the drainage channel, which leads to water accumulation on the highway. In particular, heavy rain reduces the stability under load conditions. Due to water accumulation, frost heave, and foundation softening, the sound barrier is prone to overturning, settling or being damaged. Therefore, an intelligent permeable support system for highway sound barriers is proposed. Utility Model Content
[0005] This utility model proposes an intelligent permeable support system for highway sound barriers, which solves the problem in related technologies that it is difficult to automatically sense and scrape out debris that clogs the drainage channel, leading to water accumulation on the highway road surface. In particular, heavy rain reduces the stability under load conditions, and water accumulation, frost heave, and foundation softening can easily cause the sound barrier to overturn, settle, or be damaged.
[0006] The technical solution of this utility model is as follows: A smart permeable support system for highway sound barriers, comprising: a fixed base, two drainage grooves oppositely formed at the bottom of the fixed base, a rotating rod rotatably connected to the inside of the two drainage grooves, and two sets of scrapers fixedly connected to the outer wall of the rotating rod, wherein the two sets of scrapers are respectively located inside the two drainage grooves;
[0007] The fixed base has an independent sealed chamber inside, and one end of the rotating rod extends into the sealed chamber and is fixedly installed with a bevel gear.
[0008] A waterproof shell is fixedly installed on the rear side of the fixed base. A motor is fixedly installed inside the waterproof shell. The output end of the motor extends into the interior of the sealed chamber and is fixedly connected to a second bevel gear. The second bevel gear is meshed with the first bevel gear.
[0009] A water level sensor and a protective shell are fixedly installed on the front side of the fixed base. The water level sensor is located inside the protective shell, and the water level sensor and the motor are electrically connected through a controller.
[0010] Preferably, mounting ears are fixedly installed on both sides of the fixed base, and a long bolt is inserted into the inside of each mounting ear.
[0011] Preferably, two fixing plates are fixedly installed on the top of the fixed base, and the two fixing plates are provided with mounting holes from left to right;

The support mechanism includes a support rod hinged to the rear side of the sound barrier body, a support cylinder sleeved on the bottom end of the outer wall of the support rod, and a fixing block hinged to the bottom end of the support cylinder.
[0015] Preferably, a hand-twisting thread is threaded through the top of the outer wall of the support cylinder, and one end of the hand-twisting thread abuts against the support rod.
[0016] The working principle and beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:
[0017] When the water level sensor detects water, it indicates that the drainage ditch is clogged with debris and there is water accumulation on the highway. At this time, the water level sensor transmits the information to the controller, which controls the motor to start. The motor drives the second bevel gear to rotate, which in turn pulls the meshing bevel gear one to rotate the rotating rod, causing the scraper to rotate in the drainage ditch. This scrapes out the debris clogging the drainage ditch and effectively prevents water accumulation on the highway, thereby improving the safety of highway driving. Thus, the purpose of intelligent water permeability is achieved. Attached Figure Description

[0031] This utility model provides an intelligent permeable support system for highway sound barriers. When the water level sensor 10 detects water, it indicates that the drainage ditch 2 is blocked by debris and the highway road surface is flooded. At this time, the water level sensor 10 transmits the information to the controller, which controls the motor 8 to start. The motor 8 drives the second bevel gear 9 to rotate, which pulls the meshing bevel gear 6 to drive the rotating rod 3 to rotate, so that the scraper 4 rotates in the drainage ditch 2 to scrape out and clean the debris blocking the drainage ditch 2. This effectively prevents the highway road surface from flooding and improves the safety of highway driving, thus achieving the purpose of intelligent permeability.

[0035] Specifically, the sound barrier body 18 is fixedly installed between the mounting base 1 and the mounting base 1 by manually inserting the second long bolt 16 into the mounting hole 15 and rotating the nut 17 onto the second long bolt 16.
