SMOOTH AUTOMATIC DEVICE AND METHOD FOR RESERVOIR SEDIMENT FLUSHING
This invention reveals a smooth automatic device and method for efficiently flushing sediment from a reservoir. It includes a sediment flushing funnel located at the reservoir dam's bottom, connected to a sediment flushing pipe. This pipe extends from the funnel's bottom through a smooth connecting pipe, horizontally through the dam, and then to the downstream river channel. Inside the funnel, a trigger-control mechanism is installed, linked to a sediment flushing ball valve within the sediment flushing pipe. The invention operates by automatically opening the ball valve when sediment accumulation in the funnel hits a preset threshold. The sediment is then released into the downstream river channel via the smooth connecting pipe and flushing pipe, driven by gravity. This system offers an effective solution for automatic reservoir sediment flushing, boasting high efficiency, energy conservation, and water resource savings.
