Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of drainage device technology, and more specifically, it relates to a self-cleaning roadside ditch drainage device. Background Technology
[0002] In daily highway operations, in order to ensure the normal use of highways and driving safety, highway management departments often set up side ditches on both sides of the highway to collect and drain rainwater.
[0003] However, traditional devices lack self-cleaning and drainage regulation functions, which means that during the drainage process, due to the lack of filtration measures in traditional ditches, debris and silt carried by rainwater will enter the drainage channel with the water flow, and the drainage channel will gradually become blocked.
[0004] Over time, the accumulation of debris in the ditches due to vehicle traffic and natural settlement can lead to poor drainage and water accumulation on the road surface. This not only affects the lifespan of the road, causing damage and deformation, but also increases the probability of traffic accidents due to water accumulation, posing potential dangers to road users. Utility Model Content
[0005] To address the aforementioned technical problems, this utility model provides a self-cleaning roadside ditch drainage device, which solves the technical problem that traditional devices in the prior art do not have self-cleaning and drainage regulation functions.
[0006] The purpose and effect of this self-cleaning highway ditch drainage device are achieved by the following specific technical means: A self-cleaning roadside ditch drainage device includes a drainage ditch body with grooves and multiple sets of slots. A paving plate for blocking rainwater is installed on the drainage ditch body. One set of slots has a first filter plate to block objects, and another set of slots has a water storage baffle for storing water. One end of the paving plate is engaged in the groove, forming a water storage cavity with the first filter plate and the water storage baffle. Three sets of three-way drainage pipes for drainage and flushing are pre-embedded at the bottom of the drainage ditch body. One side of each set of three-way drainage pipes is connected to the water storage cavity. The drainage ends of the three sets of three-way drainage pipes pass through the end of the drainage ditch body, and the pipe body ends are located in the middle of the drainage ditch body.
[0007] According to a preferred embodiment, three sets of water pumps are provided in the water storage chamber, and the three sets of water pumps are respectively connected to the three sets of three-way drainage pipes. A second filter plate for filtering sand and soil is provided between the first filter plate and the water storage baffle, and the second filter plate is connected to the laying plate by bolts.
[0008] According to a preferred embodiment, the water storage baffle is divided into a drainage area and a water storage area. The drainage area has multiple sets of drainage holes and is located at the top of the water storage area. A flow sensor is provided on the inner wall of the paving plate and is located on one side of the water storage baffle.
[0009] According to a preferred embodiment, a protective frame for protecting the water pipe body is pre-embedded at the bottom of the drainage ditch body. A fixed frame is provided inside the protective frame. The three sets of three-way drainage pipes are sleeved on the fixed frame. Two sets of placement plates are provided above the protective frame. The two sets of placement plates are L-shaped and connected to form a placement cavity.
[0010] According to a preferred embodiment, a sealing strip is provided at the connection between the two sets of placement plates, a motor is provided in the placement cavity, two sets of rotating shafts are provided through one set of placement plates, the two sets of rotating shafts are provided on the laying plate, and a pad for fixing the motor is provided at the bottom of the motor.
[0011] According to a preferred embodiment, the two sets of rotating shafts are connected by a belt, and a rotating frame is fitted on each set of rotating shafts. The two sets of rotating frames are located inside the paving plate, and each rotating frame is provided with two sets of water plates for accelerating the runoff of rainwater and two sets of multiple agitators for breaking up blockages.
[0012] According to a preferred embodiment, the two sets of water plates and the multiple sets of crushing rods are all located above the middle pipe body of the three sets of three-way drainage pipes. The top two ends of the laying plate are provided with first intercepting plates for intercepting debris, and a second intercepting plate is provided between the two sets of first intercepting plates. The second intercepting plate is located above the two sets of rotating shafts.
[0013] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects: 1. This device, through the coordinated arrangement of a water storage chamber and a three-way drainage pipe, enables the regulation of drainage and flushing functions, thereby improving its overall drainage performance. The device uses a laying plate, a first filter plate, and a water storage baffle to form a water storage chamber to store a certain amount of rainwater. One end of the three-way drainage pipe is connected to the water storage chamber, with its drain end and middle pipe port located at different positions on the drainage ditch body to achieve different drainage and flushing operations. When rainfall is light, the water stored in the water storage chamber can flush the middle of the drainage ditch body through the middle pipe port of the three-way drainage pipe, preventing the accumulation of silt and other debris. When rainfall is heavy, excess water is discharged from the drain end, ensuring smooth drainage under different rainfall conditions and improving the device's adaptability to varying rainfall intensities.
[0014] 2. When using this device, the motor drives the rotating shaft, causing the rotating frame mounted on the shaft to rotate. This, in turn, drives the water plate and agitator to operate, accelerating the flow of rainwater within the drainage ditch and breaking up any potential blockages. This improves the device's drainage efficiency and its ability to handle drainage blockages. The central port of the three-way drainage pipe is located in the middle of the drainage ditch, with the water plate and agitator positioned above it. As water flows through this central port, the water plate accelerates the flow, and the agitator breaks up any debris that might clog the pipe opening. This prevents blockages at the central port of the three-way drainage pipe, ensuring stable operation of the drainage system and improving its reliability. Attached Figure Description

[0017] The embodiments of this utility model will be described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and examples. The following examples are used to illustrate the technical solution of this utility model, but should not be used to limit the scope of protection of this utility model. Example
[0018] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3As shown, this utility model provides a self-cleaning roadside ditch drainage device including a drainage ditch body 11. The drainage ditch body 11 has grooves and multiple sets of slots. A paving plate 12 for blocking rainwater is provided on the drainage ditch body 11. One set of slots is provided with a first filter plate 13 to block objects, and another set of slots is provided with a water storage baffle 14 for storing water. One end of the paving plate 12 is locked in the groove and forms a water storage cavity with the first filter plate 13 and the water storage baffle 14. Three sets of three-way drainage pipes 15 for drainage and flushing are pre-embedded at the bottom of the drainage ditch body 11. One side of the three sets of three-way drainage pipes 15 is connected to the water storage cavity. The drainage end of the three sets of three-way drainage pipes 15 passes through the end of the drainage ditch body 11, and the pipe body ends of the three sets of three-way drainage pipes 15 are located in the middle of the drainage ditch body 11.
[0019] Specifically, the drainage ditch body 11 serves as the core water carrier of the device, providing an installation foundation for each component. The groove and slot are used to position the laying plate 12, the first filter plate 13, and the water storage baffle 14, respectively, ensuring stable connection of the components. The laying plate 12, by blocking rainwater, works with the first filter plate 13 (to block large debris) and the water storage baffle 14 (to store rainwater) to form a water storage chamber, which not only prevents debris from entering the drainage system and causing blockage, but also temporarily stores rainwater for subsequent flushing. The three-way drainage pipe 15 has dual functions of drainage and flushing. One end is connected to the water storage chamber to extract the stored rainwater, the drainage end discharges the filtered rainwater to a designated location, and the middle pipe end can spray rainwater to flush the inside of the drainage ditch body 11, achieving self-cleaning and solving the problem of blockage caused by debris accumulation in traditional side ditches.
[0020] Three sets of water pumps are installed in the water storage chamber. The three sets of water pumps are connected to three sets of three-way drainage pipes 15 respectively. A second filter plate 16 for filtering sand is installed between the first filter plate 13 and the water storage baffle 14. The second filter plate 16 is connected to the laying plate 12 by bolts.
[0021] Specifically, the water pump provides power to the three-way drainage pipe 15 (the water pump and motor are connected and controlled by external equipment, and both the water pump and motor are connected to the flow sensor 17), which can pump the rainwater in the water storage chamber to the three-way drainage pipe 15 to meet the power requirements for drainage and flushing; the first filter plate 13 first intercepts large debris such as tree branches and plastic bags, and the second filter plate 16 further filters fine impurities such as sand and soil. The dual filtration structure ensures that the rainwater entering the three-way drainage pipe 15 is free of impurities, avoiding pipe blockage. At the same time, the bolt connection makes it easy to disassemble the second filter plate 16 for cleaning or replacement later.
[0022] The water storage baffle 14 is divided into a drainage area and a water storage area. Multiple drainage holes are opened on the drainage area. The drainage area is located on top of the water storage area. A flow sensor 17 is installed on the inner wall of the paving plate 12. The flow sensor 17 is located on one side of the water storage baffle 14.
[0023] Specifically, the water storage area of the water storage baffle 14 can temporarily store enough rainwater to provide a water source for the flushing function. When the water level in the storage chamber is higher than that in the drainage area, excess rainwater overflows through the drainage hole, preventing excessive rainwater from overflowing the drainage ditch body 11. The flow sensor 17 monitors the rainwater flow. The flow sensor 17 can be an XY-6800R sensor. When the flow is abnormal (such as a sudden decrease in flow due to blockage), it can provide a feedback signal to prompt the start of the flushing function or manual inspection to ensure the stable operation of the drainage system.
[0024] like Figures 2 to 4 As shown, a protective frame 18 for protecting the water pipe body is pre-embedded at the bottom of the drainage ditch body 11. A fixed frame 19 is provided inside the protective frame 18. Three sets of three-way drainage pipes 15 are sleeved on the fixed frame 19. Two sets of placement plates 21 are provided above the protective frame 18. The two sets of placement plates 21 are L-shaped and are connected to form a placement cavity.
[0025] Specifically, the protective frame 18 can isolate external pressure and impurities, preventing the three-way drainage pipe 15 from being damaged during the pre-embedding process or during use. The fixing frame 19 further positions and fixes the three-way drainage pipe 15 to prevent the pipe from shifting due to water flow impact or soil settlement. The placement cavity formed by splicing the L-shaped placement plates 21 provides a dedicated installation space for the motor, ensuring that the motor is isolated from rainwater and impurities, and ensuring the normal operation of the motor.
[0026] A sealing strip 22 is provided at the connection between the two sets of placement plates 21. A motor is provided in the placement cavity. Two sets of rotating shafts are passed through one set of placement plates 21. The two sets of rotating shafts are located on the laying plate 12. A pad 23 for fixing the placement is provided at the bottom of the motor.
[0027] Specifically, the sealing strip 22 enhances the sealing of the placement cavity, preventing rainwater and mud from entering the placement cavity and damaging the motor; the motor provides power to the rotating shaft, and the pad 23 improves the installation stability of the motor, preventing the motor from shifting due to vibration during operation, while reducing direct contact between the motor and the placement plate 21, reducing noise and wear; the rotating shaft passes through the placement plate 21 and extends into the laying plate 12, providing a power transmission path for subsequent cleaning components.
[0028] The two sets of rotating shafts are connected by a belt. Each set of rotating shafts is fitted with a rotating frame 24. The two sets of rotating frames 24 are located inside the paving plate 12. Each rotating frame 24 is equipped with two sets of water plates 25 for accelerating the flow of rainwater and two sets of multiple agitators 26 for breaking up blockages.
[0029] Specifically, the belt drive ensures that the two sets of rotating shafts rotate synchronously, driving the rotating frame 24 to operate stably; when the water plate 25 rotates with the rotating frame 24, it can push rainwater to flow quickly to the drainage channel, speeding up the drainage speed and preventing rainwater from accumulating on the surface of the laying plate 12; the crushing rod 26 can crush the debris (such as fallen leaves, branches, etc.) accumulated in the laying plate 12, preventing debris from clogging the filter plate or drainage hole, and together with the flushing function of the three-way drainage pipe 15, it forms a double self-cleaning effect, improving the device's anti-clogging ability.
[0030] Two sets of water plates 25 and multiple sets of crushing rods are located above the middle of the three sets of three-way drainage pipes 15. The top two ends of the laying plate 12 are provided with first intercepting plates 27 for intercepting debris. A second intercepting plate 28 is provided between the two sets of first intercepting plates 27. The second intercepting plate 28 is located above the two sets of rotating shafts.
[0031] Specifically, the water plate 25 and the shredder 26 are located above the middle section of the three-way drain pipe 15, which can guide the broken debris and rainwater to the three-way drain pipe 15, making it easier for the debris to be discharged or washed away; the first interceptor plate 27 and the second interceptor plate 28 form a double-layer interception structure, which first intercepts large debris (such as stones and branches) on the road to prevent them from entering the paving slab 12 and causing blockage, further ensuring the smooth flow of the drainage system and reducing the pressure of subsequent cleaning.
[0032] The specific usage and function of this embodiment are as follows: When in use, rainwater flows into the drainage ditch body 11 after falling onto the road. First, it is intercepted by the first interceptor plate 27 and the second interceptor plate 28 on the top of the paving plate 12 to intercept large debris. Then, the rainwater enters the water storage chamber formed by the paving plate 12, the first filter plate 13 and the water storage baffle 14. The first filter plate 13 blocks large debris, and the second filter plate 16 filters sand and soil. Part of the clean rainwater is stored in the water storage area of the water storage baffle 14. When the water level exceeds the drainage area, it overflows from the drainage hole. The other part is pumped into the three-way drainage pipe 15 by the water pump and discharged from the drainage end. When the flow sensor 17 detects an abnormal flow (such as a sudden decrease in flow due to blockage), it sends a feedback signal to start the motor. The motor drives two sets of rotating shafts and the rotating frame 24 via a belt. The water plate 25 pushes the rainwater to flow faster, and the agitator 26 breaks up the blockage. At the same time, the water pump sends the rainwater from the water storage chamber into the three-way drainage pipe 15. Rainwater sprays out from the middle pipe end to flush the inside of the drainage ditch body 11, achieving self-cleaning. The protective frame 18 and the fixed frame 19 protect the three-way drainage pipe 15. The sealing strip 22 prevents rainwater from entering the placement chamber and damaging the motor. The pad 23 ensures the stable operation of the motor. The second filter plate 16 can be removed for cleaning and replacement later. The whole device solves the problems of easy blockage and low drainage efficiency of traditional side ditches through multi-layer interception, dual filtration, automatic monitoring and self-cleaning functions, ensuring stable drainage of highway side ditches.
[0033] The foregoing has shown and described the basic principles, main features, and advantages of this utility model. It is obvious to those skilled in the art that this utility model is not limited to the details of the above exemplary embodiments.
