Abstract

(57) [Summary] [Purpose] To provide a simple water storage tank that effectively uses rainwater as domestic water. [Structure] Rainwater is introduced into a storage tank 3 through an introduction pipe 1. The rainwater dust is removed by the filter 9. The stored rainwater is supplied as domestic miscellaneous water by the intake pipe 5 with a faucet. [Effect] Rainwater can be stored and used as domestic miscellaneous water. This allows for significant savings in water resources.

Description

[Detailed description of the device]

[0001]

[Industrial applications]

 The present invention relates to a simple water tank for effectively using rainwater.

[0002]

[Prior art and its problems]

 Currently, the rainwater that has fallen on each roof passes through a rain gutter and is directly discharged to the ground or sewage. Therefore, rainwater is drained without being used effectively. On the other hand, the so-called domestic miscellaneous water, such as flushing water from flush toilets and sprinkling water, uses the same water supply as drinking water. It does not require the same water quality as water, and in this respect it is wasteful. The present invention has been made in view of such a conventional situation, and stores rainwater for sprinkling water in gardens, roads, watering bonsai, flushing toilets, disaster prevention water, etc. It is intended to provide a simple water tank that can be used.

[0003]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 The present invention is a storage tank for storing rainwater, a tank lid of the storage tank, a rainwater introduction pipe for introducing rainwater into the storage tank, a filter disposed on the top of the tank for removing rainwater dust, and a storage tank. A means for adjusting the water level, a water intake pipe for taking out water from the storage tank, a drain pipe provided on the bottom surface of the storage tank, and a faucet disposed on the water intake pipe and the drain pipe. It is a simple water tank. The simple water storage tank of the present invention is installed between a rain gutter and the ground or sewage so that it can be used for miscellaneous domestic water. It is installed inside a house and is equivalent to the wall material on the house It may be enclosed by or installed separately outdoors. The material of the tank is not particularly limited as long as it is water resistant.

【Example】

 Next, an embodiment of the present invention will be described. 1 is a perspective view of an embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 2 is a side view thereof. The rainwater collected by the rain gutter passes through the rainwater introduction pipe 1 provided in the tank lid 2 and falls into the storage tank 3 through the hole 10 of the filter 9 provided in the upper portion of the storage tank 3 and is collected. The filter 9 is for preventing dust from entering the storage tank 3. The tank lid 2 can be removed, and accumulated dust can be easily removed. When the inside of the storage tank 3 is full, it flows from the water level adjusting pipe 4 provided at the upper part of the tank to the ground or sewage through the drain pipe 6. The water in the storage tank 3 is used for each domestic miscellaneous water from the intake pipe 5 attached to the lower part of the storage tank 3. The water intake pipe 5 may be branched, and each of the water intake pipes 5 may be provided with a faucet 8 to provide a plurality of water outlets. In addition, a drainage pipe 6 is attached so that old water and small dust that has passed through the hole 10 of the filter 9 are caused to flow to the outside of the storage tank 3 by the faucet 7. This drain pipe 6 is combined with the water level adjusting pipe 4 and flows to the ground or sewage.

In order to prevent dust from entering when rainwater is introduced into the storage tank 3 from the rain gutter, a filter 9 is provided and the filter 9 can be removed to remove the dust. To be able to The filter is not limited as long as it allows water to pass therethrough and does not allow dust to pass therethrough, and may have a hole on the surface thereof, as in the present embodiment, or a fibrous or porous filter. When the storage tank 3 is full, rainwater passes through the water level adjusting pipe 4 attached to the side surface of the storage tank 3 and is automatically discharged to the ground or sewage. Further, since the old water and small dust can be drained by appropriately operating the faucet 7 through the drain pipe 6, a proper amount of fresh water is always supplied.

[0006]

[Effect of the device]

 As described above, according to the present invention, the stored rainwater can be used as domestic water with a simple device configuration. As a result, rainwater that had been conventionally drained can be effectively used, and it is possible to significantly save water resources.
