Description

Rainwater collection and utilization device

technical field

The utility model relates to a rainwater collection and utilization device.

Background technique

my country's per capita water resources are only a quarter of the world's average level, and it is one of the countries with the poorest per capita water resources in the world. In addition to people's daily water use, a large amount of water is also consumed in cities every day for watering plants such as flowers and trees, which further exacerbates the shortage of water resources. On the other hand, it often rains in certain areas, and the distribution of rainwater is very uneven throughout the year, and most of the rainwater is not used rationally and is lost in vain. In addition, with the increase of energy consumption, the environmental pollution is aggravated. Therefore, saving energy and reducing environmental pollution have become increasingly important.

Utility model content

An object of the present utility model is to provide a rainwater collection and utilization device, which can collect and store rainwater and utilize it when needed, thereby reducing the need for water resources such as tap water.

Another object of the present invention is to provide a rainwater collection and utilization device, which can operate without energy consumption such as electricity, thereby saving energy and reducing environmental pollution.

According to the utility model, a rainwater collection and utilization device is provided, which includes at least one rainwater collection part for collecting rainwater, at least one rainwater storage part for storing the collected rainwater, connecting the rainwater collection part to the A pipeline for a rainwater storage, and a rainwater fitting connected to the rainwater storage for dispensing rainwater from the rainwater storage.

Preferably, the rainwater collection part is arranged at a higher position than the rainwater storage part, so that rainwater flows from the rainwater collection part into the rainwater storage part only under the action of gravity.

Preferably, the rainwater storage is positioned higher than the rainwater end use location such that rainwater flows from the rainwater storage to the rainwater end use location only under the force of gravity.

The rainwater collection and utilization device according to the utility model can reduce the demand for water resources such as running water, and can save energy and reduce environmental pollution.

Fig. 2 is another schematic diagram showing the rainwater collection and utilization device according to the present invention.

Detailed ways

The rainwater collection and utilization device according to the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to FIGS. 1 and 2 .

The rainwater collection and utilization device according to the present invention includes one or more rainwater collection parts 1 for collecting rainwater. In order to improve the rainwater collection efficiency, the rainwater collection part 1 has as large a surface area as possible. The rainwater collection and utilization device according to the present invention also includes one or more rainwater storage parts 2 for storing the collected rainwater, and the rainwater storage part 2 can be a container such as a square, a cylinder or any other suitable shape. The rainwater collection part 1 is connected to the rainwater storage part 2 through the pipeline 3 in order to guide the collected rainwater from the rainwater collection part 1 to the rainwater storage part 2 . In the case of multiple rainwater storage parts 2 , the multiple rainwater storage parts 2 can also be selectively connected to each other through pipelines 3 as required. The rainwater collection and utilization device according to the present utility model also includes a rainwater fitting (not shown) connected to the rainwater storage part 2 through a pipeline, for distributing rainwater from the rainwater storage part 2, so as to be used for watering plants or for other purposes.

In order to save energy and reduce environmental pollution, it is preferable to arrange the rainwater collection part 1 at a position higher than the rainwater storage part 2, so that the rainwater collected in the rainwater collection part 1 can pass through the pipeline from the rainwater collection part 1 only under the action of gravity 3 flows into the rainwater storage part 2 without the need to transport rainwater by means of pumping using electric energy. In addition, it is also preferable to arrange the rainwater storage 2 at a higher position than the rainwater end-use location, so that the rainwater stored in the rainwater storage 2 can flow from the rainwater storage 2 through the pipeline to the rainwater end-use location only under the force of gravity , and also does not need to use electric energy to pump rainwater.

In the preferred embodiment shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 , the rainwater collection and utilization device according to the present invention is arranged on a building 4 . The building 4 includes a main body 5 , a roof 6 , and two wings 7 extending upwardly from the roof 6 beyond the main body 5 . The rainwater collection part 1 is, for example, a collection pool respectively arranged on two side wings 7 , four rainwater storage parts 2 are arranged on the roof 6 , and four rainwater storage parts 2 may also be arranged on the base 8 of the building 4 . Various ornamental plants can be planted on the roof 6, and the rainwater in the four rainwater storage parts 2 arranged on the roof 6 can be used to water the various ornamental plants on the roof 6. The four rainwater storages 2 on the roof 6 are preferably arranged slightly higher than the roof 6 so that rainwater can be utilized without pumping. The rainwater in the four rainwater storage parts 2 arranged on the base 8 can be used for watering the flowers and trees around the building 4 or for other purposes. Similarly, the four rainwater storages 2 on the base 8 are preferably arranged slightly higher than the base. The positions of the four rainwater storage parts 2 on the roof 6 are not limited to those shown in the figure, for example, the four rainwater storage parts 2 can be arranged on the four corners of the roof 6 . The number of rainwater storage parts 2 can also be more or less than four. The container as rainwater storage 2 can also be painted in different colors, eg red, yellow, blue and green respectively.

The utility model has been described in detail above in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited to what is shown in the drawings or described above, but should be determined by the claims.
