A water dispenser assembly for a hand washing station includes a water heater having a water tank and a heating element configured to heat water contained in the water tank, the water tank having an inlet conduit connected to a water source and an outlet conduit, a water outlet connected to the outlet conduit and configured to receive water from the water heater through the outlet conduit, and a valve in fluid communication with the water heater and configured to selectively permit the water to be forced from the water tank and through the water outlet to dispense the water. The hand washing station may include a computer device configured for controlling components of the station.

A Modular Architectural Cistern (MAC) may be provided. The cistern may be embodied as slim, vertically ribbed structure. The interior of the structure may be configured to receive, store, and output rainwater. The cistern may comprise slip-fit connection joints configured to allow a plurality of connections to other MACs. Connections with other MACs may increase the rainwater storage volume available to the MAC. Moreover, the MAC may be aesthetically designed so as to accompany various architectural structures without taking away from the aesthetic appeal of the structure.
摘要:
A water capture device for installing in an elevated location on a building. The water capture device comprises a plurality of exterior walls, an input opening, a main chamber, a release opening, an overflow channel, and an overflow opening. The plurality of exterior walls defines a cavity. The input opening allows for allowing water to enter the cavity. The main chamber is within the cavity configured to fill with water. The release opening is for selectively releasing water from the main chamber for use by a user. The overflow channel within the cavity is for receiving excess water from the main chamber that rises above a threshold associated with the overflow channel. The first overflow opening is for allowing excess water within the overflow channel to freely exit the water capture device.

A rainwater collection tank system employs a plurality of barrel/tanks, each having a plurality of strainers with a water pump for raising stored water to one or more faucet dispensers/spouts. Permanent tanks are at least partially submerged. Smaller portable units may be anchored to a campground area with screws and/or pins. Multiple units can be situated adjacent one another beneath a multi-sectional V-shaped funnel system of rain diverters.

A tank has a circumferential wall defined by a plurality of separate elements in the form of vertical staves. Adjacent elements are shaped so that they are squeezed together to prevent leakage past adjacent elements. Hoops surround the wall elements. One hoop is a plurality of segments. Truss rods connect separate elements of the hoop to a support inside the tank. The truss rods of the hoop connect the hoop segments to the inside support in the tank and are tightened thereto for drawing the hoop wall elements inward to the truss rod supports, squeezing the adjacent wall elements together for preventing leakage between adjacent elements. A divider across the tank has the supports thereon for receiving the ends of the truss rods in the tank. Other staves define a divider of staves. Vertical beams support them.
摘要:
A modular tank comprises one or more wall modules coupled together and one or more liner bags supported by the one or more wall modules for the containment of liquid, in particular water. The wall modules can be planar or curved and the edges of the wall modules are coupled together via joining members. The modular tank comprises one or more layers of the wall modules. One or more of the wall modules comprise a hole and the one or more liner bags, which can be coupled together, comprise one or more parts that protrude through the holes in the wall modules to support the liner bags.
摘要:
A water butt comprises an interior volume for storing liquid; a container suitable for holding one or more plants, disposed on a side of the water butt; and a duct coupled between the interior volume of the water butt and the container, and configured to allow passage of liquid from the interior volume to the container. An apparatus mountable to a water management device for receiving liquid therefrom, comprises a container suitable for holding one or more plants; and a duct coupled to the container, and configured to allow passage of liquid from the water management device to the container.
摘要:
A water storage system comprising a tank having a first inclined or conical floor at the bottom of the tank, a second inclined or conical floor above the first inclined or conical floor, dividing the tank into upper and lower compartments, one or more inlet(s), an overflow outlet, a first draining outlet located at the sloping end of the first inclined floor or at the convergence of the first conical floor, a second draining outlet located at the sloping end of the second inclined floor or at the convergence of the second conical floor, and a consumer supply outlet located above the second inclined floor or above the second conical floor, wherein the upper compartment holds potable-grade water and the water from the lower compartment is reserved for fire fighting needs and used for non-potable purposes with periodic replenishment from upper compartment
摘要:
Rainwater run-off from a roof or other structure may be collected via a system of gutters and downspouts for delivery via gravity to a collection pipe, then via gravity to a connective pipe, and then via gravity to a filter system where the collected rainwater may be filtered and then delivered via gravity to one or more storage tanks When needed, the filtered rainwater may be pumped from the storage tank(s) via a distribution system to an irrigation system or other destination. The distribution system may include a hydropneumatic water tank and a centrifugal filter. If the storage tank(s) is/are empty, then an empty indicator may cause water from a water supply source to be used to irrigate instead of the filtered harvested rainwater.
摘要:
A system for rainwater harvesting includes a rain barrel adapted for collecting and storing rainwater runoff gravity-fed from a rooftop through a downspout. A substantially rigid downspout diverter comprises an inlet section, an overflow section, and an elongated connector section interconnecting the inlet section and the overflow section. The inlet section has a first end adapted for communicating with an end of the downspout and a second end communicating with an inlet opening formed with the rain barrel. The overflow section has a first end communicating with an overflow opening formed with the rain barrel and a second end extending away from the rain barrel.
