The invention provides an energy-gathering pumping device with an air inflow controlling
ball valve, and a pumping method. The device comprises an eta-shaped pipeline, a Venturi
pipe, negative pressure pipelines, a pumping pipeline and a sealed
water storage tank, wherein a water inlet of the eta-shaped pipeline is located upstream, and a water outlet is located downstream; a water inlet end of the Venturi
pipe is located below a downflow weir, and an water outlet is located on the downstream liquid surface; the top of the eta-shaped pipeline and the narrowest part of the Venturi
pipe communicate with the sealed
water storage tank through the negative pressure pipelines provided with negative pressure valves; the side of the sealed
water storage tank communicates with an upstream
water source through the pumping pipeline provided with a sealed
water storage tank valve, the air inflow controlling
ball valve and a pumping pipeline valve; a ventilation valve is arranged at the upper partof the sealed
water storage tank, and the bottom of the sealed
water storage tank is connected to a
buoyancy valve and a water faucet. The energy-gathering pumping device has the advantages that energy of the flow drop between the upstream and downstream of the
mountain stream can be used to pump water, unattended pumping can be achieved after a
siphon is started, and thus, operation is safe, related expenses on administrative staff in a pump
station are greatly reduced, and unattended management for a pump
station is truly achieved.
