Abstract

(57) [Summary] [Purpose] Conventionally, rainwater was rarely used through the gutter and was thrown into drains. However, in order to effectively use rainwater and increase the utility value of water resources, a reservoir is used. Provide a rainwater collecting device that can easily supply and drain water with a single pipe, even if installed anywhere under the gutter. [Structure] A water diversion plate (1) is provided inside the pipe, and a water diversion joint (3) provided with a water diversion port (2) on one surface in contact with the water diversion plate (1) and a side wall (4) of the container. A water reservoir (6) provided with a water inlet (5) is connected by a water supply / drain pipe (7).

Description

[Detailed description of the device]

[0001]

[Industrial applications]

 The present invention relates to a rainwater collecting device that collects rainwater discharged from a gutter in a container and uses it effectively for sprinkling.

[0002]

[Prior art]

 Conventionally, rainwater is rarely used through the gutter and is thrown into the drainage ditch, and even if it is used, a container was placed just below the gutter to collect water.

[0003]

[Problems to be solved by the device]

 This had the following drawbacks. (B) The utility value of rainwater was low and water resources were wasted. (B) Because the water was stored only by placing the container directly under the gutter, the place of use was limited and the range of use was narrow. The present invention has been made to solve these drawbacks.

[0004]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 The water diversion plate (1) is provided inside the pipe, and the water diversion joint (3) is provided with the water diversion port (2) on one surface in contact with the water diversion plate (1). The water reservoir (6) provided with 5) is connected by the water supply / drainage pipe (7). The present invention is constructed as described above, and the lower part of the water diversion plate (1) is arranged so that the lower part of the water diversion port (2) is higher than the lower part of the water sump port (5). It is a rainwater collecting device that is arranged so that it is lower than the upper part.

[0005]

[Action]

 Rainwater from the gutter is guided to the water diversion port (2) by the water diversion plate (1) in the water diversion joint (3), and the lower part of the water diversion port (2) is the water sump port (5) of the water reservoir (6). Since it is higher than the lower part, it naturally flows through the water supply / drainage pipe (7) and is supplied to the water reservoir (6) to accumulate. When the water level in the water reservoir (6) becomes higher than the lower part of the water diversion port (2), the water in the water reservoir (6) is naturally discharged through the water supply / drainage pipe (7), and the rainwater from the gutter is also stored in the water reservoir. (6) The water is discharged from the water diversion port (2) without going inside. In this way, water can be supplied and drained with only one water supply / drain pipe (7).

【Example】

 Hereinafter, examples of the present invention will be described. (A) A water inlet (9) with a diameter that contacts the outside of the connecting pipe (11) is provided on the upper side of the circular pipe, and a drainage port (8) with a diameter that contacts the inside of the gutter is provided on the lower side of the circular pipe. (1) is provided with an inclination, and a water diversion port (2) is provided on the surface where the lower side of the water diversion plate (1) contacts, so that the water diversion plate (1) is inclined from the water diversion port (2). A water pipe (3) is provided by providing a circular pipe, making the end of the circular pipe horizontal, and providing a water supply / drainage port (10) with a diameter in contact with the inside of the water supply / drainage pipe (7). (B) A water reservoir (6) is provided by providing a water reservoir (5) having a diameter in contact with the outside of the water supply / drainage pipe (7) on the side wall (4) slightly below the upper part of the rectangular container. (C) A circular pipe having a diameter that is in contact with the water supply / drainage port (10) on the outer side of the water reservoir port (5) is referred to as the water supply / drainage pipe (7). (D) A circular pipe having a diameter in contact with the outside of the gutter is used as the connecting pipe (11). (E) The water supply / drainage port (10) of the water diversion joint (3) and the water storage port (5) of the water storage container (6) are connected by the water supply / drainage pipe (7). When using this with the above structure, a space for the diversion joint (3) is secured in the middle of the trough, the connecting pipe (11) is inserted into the upper trough, and the diversion joint ( 3) is attached to the gutter so that the drainage port (8) is on the lower side and the water supply port (9) is on the upper side, and the connecting pipe (11) is slid downward to fix the water diversion joint (3) to the gutter. . By using the connecting pipe (11), it can be easily installed even in the middle of an existing gutter. Next, the lower part of the water diversion port (2) is arranged higher than the lower part of the water sump port (5), and the lower part of the water diversion plate (1) is arranged lower than the upper part of the water sump container (6). Rainwater from the gutter enters from the water supply port (9) and is guided to the water diversion port (2) by the water diversion plate (1) in the water diversion joint (3), and the lower part of the water diversion port (2) is a water reservoir ( Since it is higher than the lower part of the water reservoir port (5) of 6), it naturally flows through the water supply / drainage pipe (7) and is supplied to the water reservoir (6) and accumulates. When the water level in the water reservoir (6) becomes higher than the lower part of the water diversion port (2), the water in the water reservoir (6) naturally flows through the water supply / drain pipe (7) and is discharged from the drainage port (8). Rainwater from the gutter is also discharged from the water diversion port (2) without going into the water reservoir (6). In this way, since water can be supplied and drained with only one water supply / drain pipe (7), the water reservoir (6) can be installed anywhere, and the range of use is wide. The shape of the tube may be square, semicircular, or elliptical. The water diversion plate may be installed at a right angle to the inner surface of the pipe. The shape of the water reservoir may be circular or elliptical. The water storage container may be provided with a closed lid or a mesh lid to prevent accidents in infants and to prevent the occurrence of bluntness. In places where drainage can be drained, water may be used as drainage from the water reservoir by supplying water from the top of the water reservoir without connecting the water supply / drain pipe to the water reservoir. Another water reservoir port of the water reservoir may be provided at the same height on the other side wall and connected by the water reservoir port for use.

[0007]

[Effect of device]

 Since water supply and drainage of rainwater from a gutter can be easily done with a single water supply and drainage pipe, water reservoirs can be installed in any place, including directly under the gutter, and the range of use of rainwater is expanded and the utility value of water resources is increased.
