Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of landscape design technology, specifically to a waterfall viewing corridor spanning two banks. Background Technology
[0002] As people's living standards continue to improve, they are paying more and more attention to the design of the environment and landscape.
[0003] In some scenic spots with waterfalls, such as canyons and gardens, the view can usually only be appreciated from the ground or the shore. Since the view from the ground is not panoramic and the field of vision is poor, while the view from the shore is risky when there are many people. Utility Model Content
[0004] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this invention aims to provide a viewing corridor spanning both banks of a waterfall. This solution allows for the construction of a corridor between the two banks, facilitating a panoramic view of the waterfall. Furthermore, the design of the corridors at both ends enhances stability while accommodating more visitors.
[0005] This utility model is achieved through the following technical solution:
[0006] A viewing corridor spanning both banks of the waterfall includes:
[0007] The first fixed section and the second fixed section are respectively located on the top of both banks, and the bridge body section connects the first fixed section and the second fixed section.
[0008] Both the first fixed section and the second fixed section include an elliptical ring-shaped corridor, the major axis of which is arranged along the length of both banks.
[0009] Along its own annular direction, the bottom of the corridor is provided with a number of first support columns, the lower ends of which extend into the soil.
[0010] Compared to existing technologies, which often present challenges in observing the full panorama of waterfalls in scenic locations such as canyons and gardens, and where high visitor traffic increases the risk of damage, this invention provides a waterfall viewing corridor spanning both banks. This solution allows for the construction of a corridor between the two banks, facilitating a panoramic view of the waterfall. Furthermore, the design of the corridors at both ends enhances stability while accommodating more visitors. In the specific design, a waterfall is located in front of the two banks. Therefore, a viewing corridor is constructed between the banks, comprising a bridge section, a first fixed section, and a second fixed section. Both the first and second fixed sections include corridors that connect with the bridge section, forming a long pedestrian walkway. Visitors can then view the panoramic waterfall from the bridge section, adding to the tourist attraction. Secondly, both ends of the corridor are elliptical in shape. This elliptical shape allows visitors to also view the panoramic waterfall from the corridor itself, increasing visitor capacity and ensuring orderly entry to avoid congestion. Furthermore, the elliptical corridor is anchored to the ground by several first support columns, with its long axis aligned along the length of the riverbank. This increases the width of the anchorages at both ends, improving the stability of the corridor and the bridge section. Protective railings are installed around both the corridor and the bridge section.
[0011] Further optimization involves raising the viewing height of the corridor by extending the upper end of the first support column beyond the soil, thus suspending the first and second fixed sections in the air. This elevation of the corridor by the first support column allows visitors to enjoy panoramic views of the waterfall from the corridor itself, eliminating the need to enter the bridge section and reducing pedestrian traffic on the bridge, thereby improving its safety.
[0012] Further optimization includes a staircase section for entering the corridor from the ground. Staircase sections are provided at both corridor locations, with the lower end of the staircase section connecting to the ground and the upper end connecting to the corridor.
[0013] To further optimize the system and increase tourist viewing spots and diversify visitor flow, a passageway is provided on the short axis of the first fixed section of the corridor, with both ends of the passageway connecting to the corridor.
[0014] To further optimize the viewing experience and provide more tourists with unobstructed panoramic views of the waterfall by increasing viewing points at different elevations, the long axis of the first fixed section of the corridor gradually slopes downwards at both ends in the direction of the passage.
[0015] To further optimize the corridor and increase tourist viewing spots and diversify visitor flow, a circular walkway is provided on one side of the second fixed section of the corridor. The height of the circular walkway is higher than that of the second fixed section of the corridor, and the circular walkway has stairs that connect with the second fixed section of the corridor.
[0016] To further optimize the viewing experience and provide more tourists with unobstructed panoramic views of the waterfall by increasing viewing points at different elevations, the second fixed section of the corridor is inclined toward the bridge section.
[0017] Further optimization, to provide stable support for the bridge section, also includes several second support columns, which are fixed in the ground between the two banks and are used to support the bridge section.
[0018] For further optimization, since the first support column is anchored near the shore, in order to improve the stability of the first support column, each of the first support columns is provided with an anchor cable at its upper end. The anchor cable extends inland away from the shore and connects with the anchor block buried in the soil.
[0019] To further optimize the anchoring capacity, the anchoring block is shaped to be larger at the top and smaller at the bottom.
[0020] Compared with the prior art, this utility model has the following advantages and beneficial effects:
[0021] 1. This utility model provides a viewing corridor spanning two banks. By adopting this solution, a corridor can be erected between the two banks to facilitate a panoramic view of the waterfall in front. Furthermore, the design of the corridors at both ends enhances stability while accommodating more tourists.
[0022] 2. This utility model provides a waterfall viewing corridor spanning both banks. By adopting this solution, the corridor is raised by the first support column, allowing tourists to view the panoramic waterfall from the corridor without having to enter the bridge section, thus reducing the flow of people on the bridge section and improving the safety of the bridge section.
[0023] 3. This utility model provides a waterfall viewing corridor spanning both banks. By adopting this solution, the number of viewing spots for tourists can be increased at the two corridors, and the flow of people can be differentiated. Moreover, the inclined corridor is used to increase the number of viewing spots at different elevations, so that more tourists can enjoy a panoramic view of the waterfall without obstruction.

[0033] Example:
[0034] This embodiment provides a viewing corridor spanning both banks of the waterfall, such as... Figures 1-3 As shown, it includes:
[0035] The first fixed section 2 and the second fixed section 3 are respectively located on the top of both banks, and the bridge body section 1 is connected between the first fixed section 2 and the second fixed section 3.
[0036] Both the first fixed section 2 and the second fixed section 3 include an elliptical ring-shaped corridor, the long axis of which is arranged along the length of both banks.
[0037] Along its own annular direction, the bottom of the corridor is provided with a number of first support columns 4, the lower ends of the first support columns 4 extending into the soil.
[0038] Compared to existing technologies, which often present challenges in observing the full panorama of waterfalls in scenic locations such as canyons and gardens, and where high visitor traffic increases the risk of damage, this invention provides a waterfall viewing corridor spanning both banks. This solution allows for the construction of a corridor between the two banks, facilitating a panoramic view of the waterfall. Furthermore, the design of the corridors at both ends enhances stability while accommodating more visitors. In the specific design, a waterfall is located in front of the two banks. Therefore, a viewing corridor is constructed between the banks, comprising a bridge section 1, a first fixed section 2, and a second fixed section 3. Both the first fixed section 2 and the second fixed section 3 include corridors that connect with the bridge section 1, forming a long pedestrian walkway. Visitors can enjoy panoramic views of the waterfall from the bridge section 1, adding to the tourist attractions. Secondly, the corridors at both ends are elliptical in shape. This allows visitors to enjoy panoramic views of the waterfall from the elliptical corridors, increasing visitor capacity and ensuring that visitors enter sequentially, avoiding congestion when everyone rushes in. Furthermore, the elliptical corridors are anchored to the ground by several first support columns 4, with their long axis aligned along the length of the riverbank. This increases the width of the anchorages at both ends, improving the stability of the corridor and the bridge section 1. Protective railings are installed around both the corridor and the bridge section 1.
[0039] In some possible embodiments, to increase the viewing height of the corridor, the upper end of the first support column 4 extends out of the soil, and the first fixed section 2 and the second fixed section 3 are suspended in the air. By raising the corridor with the first support column 4, visitors can enjoy panoramic views of the waterfall from the corridor without having to enter the bridge section 1, reducing the flow of people on the bridge section 1 and improving its safety.
[0040] In some possible embodiments, to allow access from the ground into the corridor, a stair section 5 is also included, with stair sections 5 provided at both corridor locations. The lower end of the stair section 5 connects to the ground, and the upper end of the stair section 5 connects to the corridor.
[0041] In some possible embodiments, in order to increase the number of tourist viewing spots and differentiate the flow of people, a passage is provided on the short axis of the corridor of the first fixed section 2, and both ends of the passage are connected to the corridor.
[0042] In some possible embodiments, in order to facilitate more tourists to view the panoramic waterfall without obstruction by increasing viewing points at different elevations, both ends of the long axis of the first fixed section 2 of the corridor gradually slope downwards in the direction of the passage.
[0043] In some possible embodiments, in order to increase the number of tourist viewing spots and divert the flow of people, a circular walkway 6 is also provided on one side of the corridor of the second fixed section 3. The height of the circular walkway 6 is higher than that of the corridor of the second fixed section 3, and the circular walkway 6 has stairs that connect with the corridor of the second fixed section 3.
[0044] In some possible embodiments, in order to facilitate more tourists to view the panoramic waterfall without obstruction by increasing viewing points at different elevations, the corridor of the second fixed section 3 is inclined toward the direction of the bridge section 1.
[0045] In some possible embodiments, to provide stable support for the bridge section 1, a plurality of second support columns 7 are also included. The plurality of second support columns 7 are fixed in the bottom ground between the two banks, and the plurality of second support columns 7 are all used to support the bridge section 1.
[0046] In some possible embodiments, since the first support column 4 is anchored near the shore, in order to improve the stability of the first support column 4, each of the first support columns 4 is provided with an anchor cable 8 at its upper end. The anchor cable 8 extends inland in a direction away from the shore and is connected to the anchor block 9 buried in the soil.
[0047] In some possible embodiments, to improve anchoring capability, the anchoring block 9 is shaped with a larger top and a smaller bottom.
[0048] The specific embodiments described above further illustrate the purpose, technical solution, and beneficial effects of this utility model. It should be understood that the above description is only a specific embodiment of this utility model and is not intended to limit the scope of protection of this utility model.
