Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To form a block body in a short time in the case of a disaster to construct a water proof wall instead of a sandbag by covering a hard resin-made box frame with soft rubber cap to form a folded water block. SOLUTION: Both end open square cylindrical box frame 7 made of hard resin, which is folded along the ridge lines, is covered with soft box-shaped rubber caps 8, 10 to be water-tightly bonded, thereby constructing a water block. Folding lines are formed on the end faces of the rubber caps 8, 10 to be folded, a water filling opening 11 with a screw cap is provided, and a slip preventive projecting and recessed surface is formed on the outer surface. Thus, the water block can be stored in the folded state, and in case of a disaster, it can be quickly sent to a required place, and filled with city water through the water filling opening 11 to be formed into a block, and the blocks are mutually stacked to construct a water proof wall. Accordingly, the water block can be stored in folded state and in the case of necessity, it can be formed into the block body easily to construct the water proof wall instead of a sand bag.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[Industrial application] The folding water block of the present invention is a new type of waterproofing wall material that can be used as an emergency waterproofing wall material in place of sandbags or sandbags, which has been used as an emergency waterproofing wall in a flood area. It can be used as an emergency waterproof wall material that can be transported lightly.

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, sandbags, sandbags and the like have been used for waterproof walls as an emergency waterproofing measure at the time of river flooding. However, it is very difficult to process and procure a large amount of sandbags or sand bags at the disaster site, and it has not been easy to supply emergency supplies from a distance. For this reason, the emergency countermeasures in the event of floods have not been sufficient until now, and especially flood damage to houses in urban areas has been widespread.

[Problems to be Solved by the Invention] It is very difficult to procure a large amount of sandbags or sandbags for an emergency waterproof wall at a disaster site, but tap water, muddy water or other water at the same site. It is easy to inject water into a rubber bag body and mass-process the water block. Further, it is very easy to make an instant waterproof wall using a foldable water block processed into a shape similar to a concrete block for construction, and it is a task that can be performed by any adult. In the present invention, a method of processing an emergency water block using floods overflowing in a flood area and simultaneously forming a sturdy waterproof wall using the water block has been proposed to prevent inundation damage to a house in particular. Although it was devised, it is considered that the most important task of the present invention is to make this folding water block technology successful.

[Means for Solving the Problems] The specific gravity of sandbags, sandbags and the like is about 2-3, while the specific gravity of the water block is exactly 1. It is impossible to use a water block on an underwater wall due to the difference in specific gravity.However, when water blocks similar to a water bag are stacked up to the surface of the water and used as a waterproof wall, the problem of the specific gravity difference is completely lost. It does not happen. The problem is how to fold a block made of a hard resin material and fold water in the field to form a block. However, the hard resin block can be easily folded by applying the principle of the folding cardboard box. However, it is necessary to use a foldable box-shaped rubber cap on both end surfaces of the box frame. However, it is considered that this technical development is actually a means of success of the foldable water block. Further, a water inlet provided on a side surface of the water block is also directly provided on the foldable rubber cap, so that the water can enter and exit the block container freely. Further, since the block body processed with hard resin has a property of slipping with water, the entire surface of the block is covered with a soft sponge rubber surface which has been roughened as a means for preventing slippage. Therefore, even if the water blocks are stacked high, a waterproof wall can be relatively safely constructed, and watertightness can be maintained.

[Operation] This is a foldable water block that replaces the sandbags for sandbags for emergency waterproof walls, etc., which have been used in the past. It was confirmed in the experiment. Until now, architectural concrete blocks have not been used at all because they have no waterproofing effect.However, in the case of analog water blocks, the entire block is made of a hard resin frame and a soft rubber sponge body. It has the features that the waterproof effect such as block seam is maintained, and that it is relatively hard to collapse even when piled up high. Further, for the folding action of the water block, box-shaped rubber caps used at both ends of the block make the folding smooth. The use of this box-shaped rubber cap greatly affected the folding technology of the hard block body, and the development of the folding water block was successful.

[Example] In September 1998, water increased due to a typhoon flooded a store house in Tomioka-cho, Anan-shi, causing flooding under the floor. The flooding started at the entrance and back door of the store, and the waterproof block was built by lining up the prototype water blocks in front of the entrance and in front of the back door. However, what was clarified in the embodiment is that the flooding of the house remains forever after the typhoon. It was also confirmed at the same time that the method of draining water early using a water block around an inundated house was extremely effective in waterproofing.

[Effect of the Invention] Since the folding type water block can be folded before use, it is lightweight and the stock management is easy, it is necessary to keep a large number as a disaster rescue article in each local government. The effect of the safety supply that can be done is recognized. Conventionally, emergency processing of sandbags and sandbags could not be performed at the disaster site at all, but in the case of a foldable water block, even in a flood site, emergency mass processing can be performed as long as there is enough water. Outstanding effects are exhibited for sex. Foldable water blocks are inexpensive and economically recyclable products because they are products that are molded and processed mainly from waste resin and the like. In particular, it is certain that industrial waste such as plastic rubber, which has many problems, can be recycled in large quantities, greatly contributing to the effect of preventing pollution.
