FIG. 2 illustrates a state in which the present invention is installed on the roof of an apartment, illustrating the installation state of the present invention. When the present invention is installed on the roof of a building, It is possible to utilize the excellent efficiency through the present invention having the water collecting and storing function without installing the water storage facility.

As shown in FIGS. 1 to 5, the water collecting tank 20 of the present invention is a rectangular shaped enclosure having an open upper part. The water collecting tank 20 has the function of collecting rain water as well as collecting storm water, (25) is formed in the lower part of the main body (20), and the stored stormwater can be supplied to the outside.

A main cylinder 30 for automatic opening and closing of the upper plate 10, a movable gripper 41 and a fixed gripper 42 (not shown) are provided on the side wall of the water collecting tank 20, A wall plate 11 protruding upward and downward is joined to the outer wall of the upper plate 10 so that the lower end of the wall plate 11 is pressed against the movable gripper 41 and the fixed gripper And the upper end of the wall plate 11 functions as a water outlet wall so that the rain that has fallen on the upper plate 10 when the upper plate 10 is opened can flow into the water collecting tank 20 without leaking to the side, .

3, when the top plate 10 of the present invention is opened at the time of rainfall, the surface of the top plate 10 as well as the water collecting tank 20 is utilized as the water collecting surface of the rainfall. Therefore, Which is about twice as large as that of the water collecting area.

At this time, the wall plate 11 on the outer side of the upper plate 10 serves as a wall for blocking the leakage of rainwater on the surface of the upper plate 10 to the outside. As shown in FIG. 4, Since the side wall 1 on the side of the water collecting tank 20 is completely opened without the wall plate 11 being opened during the opening of the upper panel 10 as shown in Fig. 3, The depth of the water surface formed on the upper plate 10 is very small, so that the wall plate 11 does not need to protrude excessively to the upper side of the upper plate 10.

On the other hand, when the upper plate 10 is opened immediately after the start of the rainfall, the contaminants deposited on the surface of the upper plate 10 may flow into the water collecting tank 20, The water quality of the reservoir water can be secured.

In the present invention, the opening of the upper plate 10 is performed in a sliding manner in a direction parallel to the upper end of the water collecting tank 20. The movement of the upper plate 10 is, as in the enlarged portion in the right- The operation is performed by the organic compound operation of the main cylinder 30, the movable gripper 41 and the fixed gripper 42 provided on the sidewall of the water collecting tank 20. The enlarged portion in the left ellipse and the enlarged portion in the lower ellipse in Fig. A wall plate 51 is provided on the wall plate 11 of the upper plate 10 and a lower orbit 21 and an upper orbit 22 on which the wall plate 51 rotates are installed on the side wall of the water collecting tank 20, So that the upper plate 10 can be smoothly opened and closed.

6 and 7, the main cylinder 30, the movable gripper 41, and the fixed gripper 42, which perform the opening and closing operations of the upper plate 10, (Not shown), that is, a fluid pressure application means, that is, a compressor or a hydraulic pump, and the main cylinder 30 is configured such that the connecting rod protrudes and retreats And the movable gripper 41 and the fixed gripper 42 are operated in such a manner that a pair of jaws 43 formed at the upper end portion are close to and spaced from each other as the fluid pressure is applied.

6, a movable gripper 41 is mounted on the leading end of the connecting rod of the main cylinder 30 installed in the water collecting tank 20 so that the main cylinder 30 is extended in the axial direction of the main cylinder 30 That is, the movable gripper 41 also moves in the moving direction of the upper plate 10. [

7, the movable gripper 41 includes a pair of jaws 43 having inclined grooves 47 formed at the bottom thereof, a housing 45 to which the jaws 43 are coupled, And the lifting roller 46 is coupled to the inclined grooves 47 of the jaws 43 so that the fluid cylinders 44 and the fluid cylinders 44 44 and the lifting and lowering roller 46 move up and down, the jaws 43 reciprocate in a direction perpendicular to the lifting rollers 46. [

7, the jaws 43 in the state of being coupled to the housing 45 are inhibited from vertical movement and only horizontal movement in the drawing, 7, the lifting movement of the lifting rollers 46 is converted into the horizontal movement of the jaws 43, and the basic structure and the operation method are the same as those of the movable gripper 41 and the fixed gripper 42) are the same.

As the main cylinder 30 is extended and retracted and a pair of the jaws 43 of the movable gripper 41 and the fixed gripper 42 are proximate to and spaced from each other are organically combined and repetitively performed, ). The specific moving method is shown in detail in FIG.

8 is a state in which the water collecting tank 20 is completely closed by the upper plate 10, and the main cylinder 30 is kept in a contracted state at this time.

8, one pair of jaws 43 of the movable gripper 41 are brought into close proximity to each other, and the pair of jaws 43 of the movable gripper 41 are brought into close contact with the wall plate (not shown) of the upper plate 10 11, the main cylinder 30 is extended and the upper plate 10 is moved to the right in the drawing. At this time, the pair of jaws 43 of the fixed gripper 42 are kept apart from each other.

When the main cylinder 30 continues to extend and the connecting rod stroke is exhausted, as in the third step of FIG. 8, the main cylinder 30 stops stretching and a pair of jaws 43 of the fixed gripper 42 A pair of jaws 43 of the movable gripper 41 are spaced apart from each other and the main cylinder 30 is contracted while the wall plate 11 of the upper plate 10 is caught and held close to each other.

When the main cylinder 30 is retracted, the movable gripper 41 catches the wall plate 11 again, as in the fourth step shown in the lower part of FIG. 8, and then the gripping state of the fixed gripper 42 is released, The cylinder 30 is extended and the upper plate 10 moves again a distance corresponding to the stroke of the main cylinder 30. The above steps are repeated and the movement of the upper plate 10 continues.

As described above, according to the present invention, by the associated operation of the main cylinder 30 provided in the water collecting tank 20, the movable gripper 41 mounted on the main cylinder 30, and the fixed gripper 42 fixed to the water collecting tank 20, It is possible to move the upper plate 10 to a virtually unlimited distance beyond the stroke of the cylinder 30.

When a general fluid pressure actuator is applied to move the upper plate 10, it is not possible to have a moving range below the stroke of the actuator, so that a large actuator can not be applied. However, as described above, in the present invention, by virtue of the combined operation of the main cylinder 30, the movable gripper 41, and the fixed gripper 42, a substantially unlimited range of movement is ensured even through the microactuator can do.

9, the upper plate 10 and the water collecting tank 20 of the present invention are provided with a wall plate roller 51 and a water collecting tank roller 52, respectively, and a lower track 21 and a lower track 21 are provided on the side wall of the water collecting tank 20, By forming the upper trajectory 22, the upper plate 10 can be smoothly moved when the water collecting tank 20 is opened and closed.

9, the lower track 21 and the upper track 22 parallel to each other are formed at the upper end of the side wall provided with the main cylinder 30 of the water collecting tank 20, A wall plate roller 51 having the same interval and diameter as the upper orbit 22 and the lower orbit 21 is provided at the rear side end portion of the lower rail 21. As the upper plate 10 is moved, A water collecting tank roller 52 contacting the bottom surface of the upper plate 10 is provided at an end of the side wall of the front collecting tank 20 of the main cylinder 30 so that the upper plate 10 is moved So that the roller can be rotated while being in contact with the bottom surface of the upper plate 10.

As the wall plate 51, the water collecting tank 52, the lower track 21 and the upper track 22 are applied, the upper plate 10 and the water collecting tank 20 are not in direct contact with each other when they are opened and closed, Is supported through the wall plate roller 51 and the water collecting tank roller 52 so that the upper plate 10 can be smoothly moved and the output of the main cylinder 30 or the like can be reduced.

The water collecting tank roller 52 provided in the water collecting tank 20 rotates while contacting with the bottom surface of the upper plate 10 and is moved downwardly to the water collecting tank roller 52 irrespective of the opening degree of the upper plate 10. [ A moment acting as the rotation axis of the water collecting tank roller 52 is applied to the wall plate roller 51 provided at the end of the wall plate 11 of the upper plate 10 so that the driving roller of the wall plate roller 51 And the distance between the lower orbit 21 and the upper orbit 22 is made equal to the diameter of the wall roll 51 and the distance between the lower orbit 21 and the upper orbit 22, 10).

9, the upper plate 10 can be stably moved only by the support of the lower track 21 at the initial stage of the opening of the upper plate 10. However, as the movement of the upper plate 10 continues, The upper track 10 can be rotated around the water collecting tank roller 52 due to the weight of the protruded portion so that the upper track 22 can suppress the rise of the wall roller 51. [

The upper end of the water collecting tank 20 is connected to the lower surface of the upper plate 10 and the upper surface of the water collecting tank 20 is connected to the lower surface of the upper plate 10, So that the inside of the water collecting tank 20 is sealed.

An elastic body such as packing may be provided at the bottom of the upper plate 10 or at the upper end of the water collecting tank 20 in order to maintain a tightly closed state of the upper layer. It is difficult to smoothly open and close the upper plate 10 due to frictional force.

9, in the initial movement of the upper plate 10 for opening the water collecting tank 20, the opening initial wall roller 51 is moved in the horizontal direction, A curved portion is formed on the bottom surface of the upper plate 10 immediately above the lower trajectory 21 of the lower portion and the upper portion of the water collecting tank roller 52 so that the upper plate 10 So that the friction between the bottom surface of the upper plate 10 and the upper end of the water collecting tank 20 is prevented.

That is, as in the enlarged portion in the left ellipse in Fig. 9, the curved portion in which the running surface gradually rises is formed at the rear side end portion of the main cylinder 30 of the lower rail 21 and the wall roller 51 is driven So that the upper plate 10 can be moved upward without exerting an external force on the upper plate 10 separately from the upper plate 10 by causing the water collecting tank 20 to run along the curved portion of the bottom surface of the upper plate 10 as well.

At this time, the horizontal movement of the upper plate 10 is performed while the main cylinder 30 is extended. In a state where the movable gripper 41 mounted on the main cylinder 30 firmly catches the wall plate 11 of the upper plate 10 It is impossible to raise the upper plate 10 and therefore the pair of jaws 43 of the movable gripper 41 can be moved in a state in which the movable gripper 41 does not catch the wall plate 11 as in the enlarged portion in the lower- The jaws 43 of the movable grippers 41 push the projecting rollers 17 protruding from the wall plate 11 to move the top plate 10 as the main cylinder 30 is extended, The projecting roller 17 is driven by the jaws 43 of the movable gripper 41 and rotates along the side edge of the jaws 43 as shown in the enlarged portion in the lower ellipse of Fig. .

Once the wall roller 51 has completely entered the lower track 21 of the lower track 21 to fully enter the lower track 21, the movable gripper 41 is operated in a state of firmly capturing the wall plate 11 9, the upper end of the jaw 43 of the fixed gripper 42 is positioned below the projecting roller 17, so that the protruding roller 17 is moved to the fixed gripper 42 So as not to collide with the jaws (43)

Meanwhile, since the bottom surface of the upper plate 10 is closely attached to the upper end of the water collecting tank 20 when the water collecting tank 20 is completely closed, the closed state of the water in the water collecting tank 20 is maintained so that it is difficult to smoothly discharge the stored water through the water outlet 25 As shown in FIGS. 1, 4 and 5, a vent pipe 18 is installed in the upper plate 10 to connect the inside and the outside of the water collecting tank 20. As shown in the figure, the upper end of the vent pipe 18 It is preferable to minimize the inflow of external contaminants by curving to form an inflow port of the outside air downward.

As described above, according to the present invention, not only the water collecting tank 20 but also the top plate 10 can be utilized as a rain water collecting surface when the water collecting tank 20 is opened, The closed state in the water collecting tank 20 can be maintained at the time of closing, so that the water collecting tank 20 can have a storage function.

Particularly, due to the organic combined operation of the main cylinder 30, the movable gripper 41 and the fixed gripper 42, there is no restriction on the moving range of the upper plate 10, The ribs 19 may be formed in a large size as shown in FIG. 10 since warping or twisting deformation may occur in the upper plate 10 and the water collecting tank 20 in this case. Or a bracing 29 may be formed and reinforced.
