After operation, spraying of the antifreeze solution from the spray nozzle buried on the road surface is performed by setting the spray pressure of all the spray nozzles to the same by the spray amount adjustment valve. Had to be replaced with a new nozzle. However, in general, the road surface is provided with a slope to cope with the height of the terrain, the curved portion of the road, the drainage on the road surface, and the like. That is, in order to make the spray amount on the road surface uniform, it is necessary to adjust the spray amount from the spray nozzle on the high side of the road surface and to reduce the spray amount on the low side of the road surface. Therefore, in order to uniformly spray the antifreeze solution on the road surface, it is desired that the optimum discharge amount is set for each spray nozzle embedded in advance, and the discharge amount can be quickly and easily adjusted for each spray nozzle. I was If the height of the road surface changes due to maintenance and repair of the pavement after operation, it is necessary to embed the spray nozzle again to adjust the buried height of the spray nozzle upper surface to the road surface, and to correct the installation height It took a lot of trouble. Although one nozzle hole is provided for each spray nozzle, when the spray amount of the antifreeze solution is increased, the antifreeze solution is ejected radially on the road surface to the driver of the passing vehicle. He was giving psychological anxiety. During the suspension period in summer, rainwater and sewage infiltrate from the spray nozzles exposed on the road surface, and the spray nozzles and the pipe body are clogged with mud, etc.In order to resume operation at the beginning of early winter, A great deal of labor is required for cleaning the spray nozzles and the like, and labor saving in maintenance has been required.

And spraying from the nozzle hole toward the road surface to prevent the road surface from freezing and melt the snow.
According to the spray nozzle of the first aspect, the installation arrangement and the number of the plurality of spray nozzles at the installation location of the spray nozzle, the water pressure by the water supply pipe and the discharge amount from the nozzle hole by the flow rate adjusting mechanism, the nozzle hole By appropriately setting the number of the nozzles, the direction of the nozzle holes, and the like, the amount of the antifreezing agent and the like to be sprayed on the road surface of the spray nozzle can be uniformly sprayed and efficiently sprayed. Therefore, it is not necessary to bury a large number of heaters on the road or install large-scale heat source equipment as in the conventional road heating system, and to supply the antifreeze solution to the required number of spray nozzles installed at the required locations. Therefore, initial costs and running costs can be reduced.

Since the child is exposed on the road surface side, even after the operation, the discharge amount of the antifreeze solution is quickly and easily adjusted by adjusting the flow rate adjusting mechanism from the road surface for each spray nozzle. be able to.
Therefore, since the spray discharge amount of the antifreeze solution can be quickly adjusted for each spray nozzle, the optimum amount of the antifreeze solution is adjusted on the road surface according to various conditions such as road surface gradient, road surface freezing, degree of snow coverage, road surface temperature and the like. It is possible to spray uniformly, and furthermore, it is possible to suppress excessive spraying of the antifreezing solution, so that it is possible to reduce the influence on the environment and save running costs. Furthermore, by providing a flow rate adjusting mechanism in the water chamber, the jetting power from the orifice is attenuated to stabilize the supply of the antifreezing solution to the nozzle holes, and the number of nozzle holes per spray nozzle is increased. In addition, the amount of discharge per hole can be reduced, and the spraying is realized by a method of oozing in a fan shape without jumping to the road surface. Further, even if a part of the nozzle hole is clogged, the spray can be sprayed from the remaining nozzle holes, so that more stable spraying is possible. Also, during the suspension period in summer, rainwater and sewage infiltrate from the spray nozzle exposed on the road surface to prevent clogging of the spray nozzle and pipe body, etc. Can also be blocked. Since the spray nozzle can be disassembled, even after the road surface is buried,
From the upper part of the nozzle, cleaning of clogging of the nozzle hole and cleaning or replacement of a filter for preventing clogging of the nozzle hole provided in front of the orifice valve can be performed.

It is also possible to install the spray nozzle at the same level as the road surface (installation so that the nozzle upper surface is at the same level as the road surface), but with such a configuration, the nozzle upper surface is directly exposed from the road surface and Since the outlet of one or a plurality of opened nozzle holes comes into direct contact with air, if the temperature drops in a water stopped state, there is a possibility that the residual water in the nozzle holes freezes and cannot be sprayed. Therefore, in the present invention, since the spray nozzle is installed at a position lower than the road surface and a space for storing water is secured between the road surface and the upper surface of the spray nozzle, the antifreezing solution is stored in the space in the water stopped state. However, since this forms a water film and covers the nozzle hole, freezing of the nozzle hole can be prevented.

Is supplied so as to overflow from the rim of the nozzle embedding opening) toward the road surface. Therefore, it is slightly influenced by the direction of forming the nozzle holes, the number of nozzles installed, the installation interval, the road surface gradient, etc., but almost uniformly in the width direction and the length direction of the road surface (in other words, toward the entire road surface area). The antifreeze solution can be sprayed efficiently and radially onto the road surface without giving the driver of the passing vehicle a feeling of psychological anxiety.

When a situation such as drop occurs occurs, part or all of the intermediate 1b can be removed and the height of the nozzle upper surface 1 'with respect to the road surface T1 can be adjusted so as to be lowered. It is possible to avoid a situation where the projection is damaged.

い。According to the road surface deicing solution spraying system of the third aspect, a space for storing the deicing solution is secured between the road surface and the upper surface of the spray nozzle, so that the following advantages are obtained.・ Anti-freeze solution released from each nozzle hole is supplied to the road surface after it accumulates in the reservoir space and then overflows from the rim of the opening to the road surface, so that the efficiency is almost even across the entire road surface It can supply antifreeze solution well.・ When the supply of the antifreeze solution is stopped (water stoppage state), the antifreeze solution is stored in the reservoir space, which forms a water film and covers the nozzle hole, so that the nozzle hole can be prevented from freezing. , The next spraying can be smoothly resumed.・ Even if rutting occurs on the asphalt pavement after service and the road surface level is lowered, the height of the spray nozzle can be lowered by removing the intermediate, so that the spray nozzle protrudes on the road surface and is damaged. Is less likely to occur.

が可能となる等、多くの効果を奏する。Further, the spray nozzle of the present invention and the system for spraying a road surface freezing prevention solution using the same can reduce initial cost and running cost as compared with a conventional road heating system, and are economically excellent in road surface freezing prevention. A system can be provided. Furthermore, compared to the conventional road surface deicing agent and snow melting agent spraying device, the amount of sprayed antifreeze solution can be easily adjusted from the road surface, so the optimum spraying amount management corresponding to changes in service conditions, etc. Since the excessive spraying of the prevention solution can be suppressed, there are many effects such as a reduction in the influence on the environment and an effective and lower-cost road surface management in winter.
