Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of public transportation facilities technology, and in particular to a bus shelter. Background Technology

[0002] In existing technologies, bus waiting halls typically consist of vertically installed support columns topped with a canopy to create a sheltered space, with benches underneath for passengers to rest while waiting. However, because these benches are constantly exposed to the complex outdoor environment, affected by wind, rain, and natural biological activity, their surfaces easily accumulate dust, stains, bird droppings, and other contaminants. The existing bench structures lack effective automatic cleaning mechanisms, rendering the benches unusable after the accumulation of dust, stains, and bird droppings, significantly impacting the practicality of the waiting facilities and the public service experience. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The purpose of this utility model is to address the shortcomings of the existing technology and provide a bus shelter.

[0017] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present utility model are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0018] like Figures 1 to 3As shown, a bus shelter includes a support column 1, a canopy 2 on the support column 1, and a waiting bench 3 below the canopy 2. The waiting bench 3 includes two uprights 3-1 on both sides, and a bench 3-2 between the uprights 3-1. The two ends of the bench 3-2 are rotatably connected to the uprights 3-1, and one side of the bench 3-2 is the seat surface. A flipping drive device for driving the bench 3-2 to flip is provided on the uprights 3-1. A washing and cleaning device is provided below the bench 3-2. When the waiting bench 3 is in use, the seat surface faces upward; when the waiting bench 3 is in the cleaning state, the seat surface faces downward.

[0019] This invention solves the problem of the inability to automatically clean the surface dirt of traditional waiting benches by combining the design of "stool board 3-2 flipping + bottom rinsing".

[0020] When the waiting bench 3 is in normal operation, the seat surface on the bench board 3-2 faces upwards, and the waiting bench 3 can be adjusted for passengers to sit on. When the seat surface is to be cleaned, the bench board 3-2 is flipped over by the flipping drive device and the seat surface faces downwards, at which point the waiting bench 3 switches to the cleaning state; the seat surface is rinsed and cleaned by the rinsing and cleaning device below; after cleaning is completed, the bench board 3-2 is flipped over by the flipping drive device and the seat surface faces upwards again, thus switching the waiting bench 3 back to the use state.

[0021] This invention enables automatic cleaning of the bench surface, ensuring the continuous and normal use of the waiting bench 3. It avoids the problem of dirt accumulation due to prolonged exposure to the outdoor environment, which renders the bench unusable, thus improving the practicality of the waiting facilities and the public service experience. Furthermore, the entire cleaning process is automated, eliminating the need for manual cleaning and avoiding the labor costs associated with manual cleaning.

[0022] The washing and cleaning device can clean the bench surface regularly, such as every two days. Cleaning can be avoided during peak hours and can be carried out during bus off-peak hours, when there are usually no passengers waiting for the bus, thus avoiding the impact of the cleaning process on passengers.

[0023] The flipping drive device is motor 3-9, and a protective cover 3-5 is provided on the outside of motor 3-9.

[0024] The rinsing and cleaning device includes a water tank 3-12, a first pipe 3-10, and a second pipe 3-14. A water pump 3-13 is installed on the water tank 3-12, and the water pump 3-13 is connected to the first pipe 3-10 through the second pipe 3-14. The first pipe 3-10 is located below the stool 3-2 and is arranged along the axial direction of the stool 3-2. Several nozzles 3-11 are installed on the first pipe 3-10. The nozzles 3-11 are arranged sequentially along the axial direction of the first pipe 3-10.

[0025] The nozzle 3-11 is positioned upwards; when the stool surface is facing downwards, the nozzle 3-11 will be directly facing the stool surface, and the water jet from the nozzle 3-11 will spray onto the stool surface, thereby cleaning the stool surface.

[0026] Water tank 3-12 provides an independent water source, eliminating the need for external water supply pipes. Water pump 3-13 provides a stable water pressure output, pressurizing the water in water tank 3-12 and delivering it to nozzle 3-11, ensuring that the water flow has sufficient impact force to effectively wash away stubborn dirt such as dust and bird droppings attached to the bench surface, avoiding the problem of "weak water flow and incomplete cleaning".

[0027] Water tank 3-12 is equipped with a water inlet 3-12a, through which water can be added to water tank 3-12.

[0028] A baffle 3-3 is installed on each side of the column 3-1, and the flushing and cleaning device is located between the two baffles 3-3. The baffles 3-3 are connected to the column 3-1 by connecting screws 3-4. The baffles 3-3 provide a protective barrier for the internal flushing and cleaning device (water tank 3-12, pipes, nozzles 3-11, etc.), preventing these components from being damaged by impacts from external objects. The connection between the baffles 3-3 and the column 3-1 via connecting screws 3-4 allows for a detachable design, facilitating the installation and removal of the baffles 3-3. When it is necessary to inspect the internal flushing and cleaning device or replenish the water tank 3-12, the baffles 3-3 can be easily removed, thus facilitating these operations.

[0029] In addition, the baffle 3-3 can hide the pipes, nozzles, water tank 3-12 and other components of the flushing and cleaning device inside, preventing passengers (especially children) from accidentally touching the sharp parts of the flushing and cleaning device and eliminating safety hazards.

[0030] Furthermore, the column 3-1 is provided with a limiting mechanism for limiting the stool 3-2. The limiting mechanism includes a connecting plate 3-7, which is provided with at least two limiting rods 3-6. The column 3-1 is provided with guide holes corresponding to the limiting rods 3-6, and the limiting rods 3-6 are slidably engaged with the guide holes. A driver 3-8 is provided between the connecting plate 3-7 and the column 3-1. When the limiting mechanism is in the limiting state, the limiting rods 3-6 extend from the guide rods and extend to the bottom of the stool 3-2.

[0031] When the waiting bench 3 is in use, the limiting mechanism is in a limited position. At this time, the limiting rods 3-6 extend from the guide rod and reach below the bench 3-2. The two limiting rods 3-6 contact the lower end surface of the bench 3-2, providing auxiliary support for the bench 3-2. Simultaneously, the limiting action of the two limiting rods 3-6 prevents the bench 3-2 from accidentally tipping over. When the bench 3-2 needs to be tipped over, the limiting rods 3-6 retract into the guide hole to avoid interfering with the tipping. The movement of the limiting rods 3-6 is driven by the actuator 3-8.

[0032] In this embodiment, the actuators 3-8 are electric cylinders.

[0033] This utility model is not limited to the above-described preferred embodiments. Anyone can derive other forms of products under the guidance of this utility model. However, regardless of any changes made in their shape or structure, any technical solution that is the same as or similar to this application falls within the protection scope of this utility model.
