Problems solved by technology

[0003] When a car driver encounters a water-logged road, he usually drives at a low speed on the water-logged road based on experience. However, when the water depth exceeds a certain level, the vehicle cannot detect the water depth when wading, which may cause the car engine to enter water. Even the whole vehicle is flooded, causing the vehicle to stall and break down

Abstract

The invention discloses a water level detecting device and method. The water level detecting device is arranged at an automobile head, two electrodes form a parallel plate capacitor, the capacitance value between the parallel plate capacitors is in linear change along with different water levels between the capacitors, the capacitance when the gap between the parallel plate capacitors is fully filled with water, the capacitance when the gap between the parallel plate capacitors is filled with no water and the maximum water depth are known, the water depth between the parallel plate capacitors is calculated according to the measured capacitance values of the parallel plate capacitors, the known capacitance, the greatest water depth and the preset relationship, the water depth of accumulated water can be precisely detected when an automobile is in wading running, and the automobile fault is avoided.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of water level sensing, in particular to a water level detection device and method. Background technique [0002] The occurrence of heavy rain will cause water accumulation or flooding on a large area of ​​the road surface, and the situation of vehicles wading through water often occurs. [0003] When a car driver encounters a water-logged road, he usually drives at a low speed on the water-logged road based on experience. However, when the water depth exceeds a certain level, the water depth cannot be detected when the vehicle is wading, which may cause the car engine to enter water. Even the whole vehicle was flooded, causing the vehicle to stall and break down. Contents of the invention [0004] In view of this, the main purpose of the present invention is to provide a water level detection device and method, which can accurately detect the water depth when the vehicle is wading. [0005] In order to achieve th...
