Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Industrial Field of Application] The present invention does not use a snow melting method using water sprinkling, but melts snow on a water-permeable block layer using water seeping out onto the upper surface of the water-permeable block layer in the same manner as in the conventional method. This paper relates to an efficient snow melting method that prevents clothes from getting wet due to water sprinkling and wasteful use of water.

[Conventional technology]

The conventional snow melting method for roads is to bury snow melting water nozzles in the center or both ends of the road, and spray water from these water nozzles to melt the snow on the road. In addition to water splashing on clothes and getting into shoes, water is wasted due to large amounts of water being sprayed, and when underground water is used, this wasteful large amount of water can cause ground subsidence, which is a problem. There is.

[Problem to be solved by the invention]

The present invention provides a snow-clearing road on which pedestrians can walk with peace of mind by preventing clothes from getting wet and water being wasted due to water sprinkling.

[Means to solve the problem]

The configuration will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings as follows.

A water-permeable block layer is laid in which minute voids that allow water to penetrate through capillary action exist in a confectionery-like manner, and underground water, hot water, factory wastewater, river water, etc. The present invention relates to a snow melting method characterized by melting snow on the surface of a water-permeable block layer by infiltrating and supplying snow.

This relates to a snow melting method in which a water-permeable block layer is laid down as a water-permeable block plate 1.

This relates to a snow melting method in which a water-permeable block layer is laid down as a water-permeable block plate 1.

This relates to a snow melting method in which a water-permeable block layer is laid on a sidewalk as a sidewalk block to melt accumulated snow on the sidewalk when it is laid as a water-permeable block board 1.

[Effect]

When groundwater is supplied to the water-permeable block layer, which has fine pores through which water can penetrate through capillary action through the water conduction pipe 2 and exists like a confectionery, the water seeps out on the top surface of the water-permeable block layer. The snow on the top of the layer is melted.

〔Example〕

In Figures 1 and 3, a water-permeable block plate 1 is laid on the sidewalk as a sidewalk block, a branch pipe 4 is installed at an appropriate location of a water pipe 3 installed on the sidewalk side near the roadway, and a branch pipe 4 is led to the tip of the branch pipe 4. A water pipe 2 is provided, and this water pipe 2
This figure shows a case where underground water or hot water is infiltrated and supplied to the permeable block plate 1 to melt snow on the sidewalk.

FIG. 2 shows a case where the water conduit 2 is built into the water-permeable block plate 1 and connected to the water-permeable block plate 1.

Note that the fluid that permeates and supplies into the water-permeable block plate 1 is not limited to ground water, hot water, factory waste water, or river water, but any fluid that can melt snow may be used.

In the figure, numeral 5 is a pipe, and 6 is a water nozzle.

〔Effect of the invention〕

Since the present invention is constructed as described above, when underground water is supplied through the water conduit 2 into the water-permeable block layer laid down, the ground water permeates the surface of the water-permeable block layer by capillary action, just like getting wet by rain. In this state, the snow gradually melts from the bottom of the snowpack, so unlike conventional snow melting nozzles, water sprinkled on the snow can get your clothes wet, or you can waste precious groundwater by sprinkling large amounts of water. This is a snow melting method that can melt snow very efficiently without having to do anything.
