Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 is a perspective view showing a gutter block unit 1 which constitutes a gutter block according to an embodiment of the present invention. The gutter block is configured by connecting the individual gutter block units 1. Therefore, in the following,
The construction of the gutter block is described in relation to the gutter block unit 1.

The gutter block unit 1 is a hollow cylindrical body having a flow passage 2 for flowing rainwater, and a walkway boundary block 3 extending over the entire length of the gutter block unit 1 is provided on a part of the upper surface thereof. Have in one.

An opening 5 for attaching a flat water collecting portion 4 is formed in a portion other than the pedestrian road boundary block 3 on the upper surface of the gutter block unit 1, and the opening 5 has a plurality of vertical and horizontal bars. A grating 7 formed in a lattice shape by 6 is fitted.

Adjacent to the grating 7 of the flat water collecting section 4, an opening 9 for attaching a side water collecting section 8 is formed on the road side surface of the pedestrian road boundary block 3. A removable cover 12 having a grating 10 and a guide portion 11 for guiding rainwater in the side surface water collecting portion 8 is attached to the opening 9 integrally.

As shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, the cover 12 has an outer wall 13 having a hook-shaped cross section.
The front surface and a part of the upper surface are cut out in a rectangular shape, and the grating 10 and the guide portion 11 are provided therein. The grating 10 is provided with a plurality of bars 14 arranged in the vertical direction, and the intervals between the bars 14 are larger than the intervals between the grids of the grating 7 of the flat water collecting section 4.

The guide portion 11 provided adjacent to the grating 7 starts from the front right of the cover 12 and gradually extends rearward toward the grating 10, as is apparent from FIG. Have 15.

At both end portions of the cover 12 of the side water collecting portion 8,
As shown in FIGS. 3, 4, and 5, an end wall 16 is provided, and a slit 18 for inserting a bolt 17 (FIG. 1) acting as a rotation center is formed in the end wall 16. ing. After passing through the slit 18 of the end wall 16, the bolt 17 is fixed by being screwed into a female screw portion 19 provided in advance in the side groove block unit 1.

As a result, the cover 12 is rotatably held via the bolt 17 as shown in FIG. That is, in the case of this embodiment, the removal of the cover 12 is realized by the rotation of the cover 12. In this case, the slit 18
However, as clearly shown in FIG. 3, if the cover 12 extends obliquely upward toward the front surface of the cover 12, the cover 1 will be described later.
There are advantages associated with the two pivots.

Next, the operation will be described.

First, at the time of construction of a street ditter, since the gutter block unit 1 is integrally molded with the pedestrian road boundary block 3 that divides the sidewalk and the road, the gutter block unit 1 and the gutter block unit 1 are walked together as in the conventional case. The construction is easily performed as compared with the case where the road boundary block 3 is constructed separately.

According to the gutter block constructed in this manner, rainwater flowing from the roadway is normally collected from the grating 7 of the flat water collecting portion 4 to the gutter block, and from there, the flow path 2 is formed.
Is drained through. In this case, when dust on the roadway is clogged in the grating 7 of the flat water collection unit 4 and the water collection capacity of the flat water collection unit 4 is reduced, rainwater accumulates on the roadway in the conventional gutter block, and the water level rises. May overflow. However, in the device of this embodiment, since the side surface water collecting portion 8 is provided, the overflowed rainwater is discharged from the side surface water collecting portion 8 to the flow channel 2 of the gutter block, so that the rainwater is not rained. It does not overflow on the sidewalk.

Moreover, since the inflow area of the side water collecting portion 8 increases as the water level rises, incoming rainwater can be quickly collected in the gutter block. At this time, the cover 12 of the side surface water collecting portion 8 is provided with the guide portion 11 for guiding the rain water to the side surface water collecting portion 8, so that the guide portion 11 allows the rain water to quickly flow into the side surface water collecting portion 8. And surely guided.

Further, the grating 10 of the side water collecting portion 8
Is provided with a plurality of bars 14 arranged in the vertical direction at intervals larger than the intervals of the grids of the grating 7 of the flat water collecting section 4, so that it is possible to pass through the grating 7 of the flat water collecting section 4. The relatively large dust that does not exist is also discharged from the side water collecting portion 8 by dropping into the gutter block.

As shown in FIG. 6, in order to rotate the cover 12 of the side water collecting portion 8 to the upper position iv for performing maintenance such as cleaning, first, the cover 12 is moved from the position i to the position ii. It is necessary to pull it up diagonally. As a result, the bolt 17 that was initially adjacent to the upper end of the slit 18 of the end wall 16 relatively moves inside the slit 18 by the diagonally upward movement of the cover 12 and reaches the lower end of the slit 18. Only at this position ii is the cover 12
Since a gap is formed between the side groove block unit 1 and the gutter block unit 1 to such an extent that the cover 12 can be rotated, the cover 12 can be rotated.

After that, the cover 12 is rotated counterclockwise in FIG. 6 through the position iii to the position iv. When the cover 12 is rotated in this manner, the inside of the gutter block unit 1 and the back side of the grating 7 of the flat water collecting portion 4 can be easily approached, so that dust can be easily collected.

With such a structure of the cover 12, since unintended rotation of the cover 12 or rotation due to mischief can hardly occur, an accident is caused due to an unexpected rotation of the cover 12. There is no danger of it occurring.

The embodiments of the present invention have been described above with reference to the drawings. However, the specific configuration is not limited thereto, and even if there are changes and additions within the scope not departing from the gist of the present invention, they will not be affected. Included in the present invention.

[0027]

According to the present invention, since the gutter block is integrally formed with the pedestrian road boundary block that divides the sidewalk and the roadway, the construction can be easily performed at the time of construction of the street ditches. Be seen.

Further, since the gutter block is provided with a side surface water collecting portion which collects water from the side surface of the road surface adjacent to the flat water collecting portion which collects water from the plane surface of the road surface, the side surface water collecting portion has an eye. Even if there is a blockage and the water collection capacity of the flat water collection area is reduced, rainwater is drained from the side water collection area to the drainage channel, so its water collection capacity is maintained well even in heavy rain. , Rainwater does not overflow on the sidewalk.

Further, since the side surface water collecting portion is constituted by a removable cover integrally having a grating and a guide portion for guiding rainwater into the side surface water collecting portion, by removing the cover ( By rotating in the embodiment), it is possible to easily remove dust near the side water collecting portion and dust clogging the grating. After the construction, the rainwater flowing from the road surface or the sidewalk surface and approaching the cover of the side water collection part will be quickly and reliably guided into the side collection part by the guide part of the cover, so water collection and drainage The function is further improved.

Further, since the covering body having a relatively complicated structure and the gutter block main body having a relatively simple structure can be separately manufactured, the manufacturing process is simplified, and the covering body manufactured in advance is further manufactured. It can be assembled easily by simply attaching the body to the gutter block body at the construction site, for example.
