Description
Description of the invention Title of the invention Pressure source without tube and diaphragm Tubeless Pressure Tank The technical background of Astronomy The present invention relates generally to pressurized sources, particularly tubeless and diaphragmless pressurized sources for use in domestic water supply systems, firefighting, and water purification systems. The technical problem of the invention's objectives Pressurized sources are among the main components of water supply systems, because the presence of a pressurized source in a water supply system makes water supply better and easier and prevents unnecessary operation of the water pump's electric motor. In general, there are two types of sources. The first type is called tube tanks and the second type is called tubeless / diaphragm tanks. One of the disadvantages of these tanks is that, due to the use of a tube or rubber diaphragm to provide the necessary pressure for transporting and pumping water, the tube or diaphragm can break and puncture, as well as periodically adjusting the air pressure. This factor increases depreciation, reduces efficiency and fluctuations in water supply, and increases costs. Another problem with pressurized sources, including tubes and rubber diaphragms, is environmental pollution caused by the presence of rubber in the ecosystem. Considering the above explanations, the desire to design and produce pressure sources without tubes and diaphragms is easily understandable. In the present achievement, the design and production of pressure sources without tubes and diaphragms has been carried out, which reduces the depreciation of the source, increases the lifespan and efficiency of the source, and reduces environmental risks. Description of the state of the art and history of advances related to the invention of the common law. Various improvements to pressurized water sources have been made in the prior art and are still being made. For example, we can refer to patent number US20060118564, in which a tubeless pressurized water source for underground installation is provided. For this purpose, an air volume control device is used, which includes a float that moves along a vertical axis and, in the event of a change in the water level, air or water is injected into the source. As another example, we can refer to patent �IN1309 / CHE / 2009, in which a diaphragm-free pressurized water source is provided. Water is pumped into the tank through a check valve against the pressure of compressed air. By pumping water into the pressurized water tank, the pressure of the compressed air increases proportionally to the decrease in volume. When the water level reaches the maximum height, the float control switch is turned off to stop the water pump. The pressure and speed of the water delivered to the tank depend on the pressure of the compressed air in the tank. When the water level in the tank reaches a minimum, the spring-loaded drain valve piston is automatically closed by the spring. The present invention, regardless of the various embodiments it may have, is a pressurized water source without tubes and diaphragms. The present achievement, with its unique design, is a pressurized water source that, due to the elimination of tubes and diaphragms and the designed structure, has high efficiency, low depreciation, and long service life, which can be used for various applications, including industrial and domestic water supply systems. Providing a solution to an existing technical problem accompanied by an accurate, sufficient, and integrated invention As stated, the present invention is a pressure source without tubes and diaphragms for firefighting water supply systems, homes and water purification systems. The technology of designing and manufacturing the pressure source is such that the tube and diaphragm are removed from the structure of the source, which leads to better performance and longer life than pressure sources with rubber tubes and diaphragms and reduced maintenance costs of the source. The device presented in this application can be used for firefighting water supply systems, homes and water purification systems.

A clear and precise statement of the advantages of the claimed invention over prior inventions. The present achievement is a pressure source without tubes and diaphragms. The advantages of this product over the prior art are: Longer lifespan than pressurized sources with rubber tubes and diaphragms. No need to periodically check the tank air level. No harm to the body for drinking and sanitary purposes due to the elimination of the rubber tube and diaphragm. Better performance in water supply due to the absence of the tube or diaphragm. Reduced maintenance costs. A description of the minimum steps required to implement the invention. The present invention is a tubeless and diaphragmless pressure source including, but not limited to, a body, a first fluid volume control device, an air inlet valve, an air pump, a pressure switch, a pressure display gauge, and a liquid inlet and outlet passage. The liquid inlet and outlet passage includes a valve and a flange, and the air inlet and outlet passage valve includes a hollow cylinder, a valve lower piece, a valve, a sealing washer, and a ball. In this example of the present invention, a piston or valve valve is used at the end of the source body in the liquid inlet and outlet duct, the middle valve of which is connected to a floating ball, and in a state where there is no liquid such as water inside the source, it is installed vertically in the lower part of the barrier to the liquid inlet and outlet duct. In this case, the middle part of the valve reaches the second end of the hollow cylinder and blocks the path of liquid entry or exit from the closed space inside the body. In this case, the required air is injected into the source through the air inlet valve installed at the top of the source by an air pump, and the source is ready to be watered. When pressurized water, of course, whose pressure is much higher than the air pressure of the source, enters the source through the liquid inlet and outlet duct at the bottom of the source, the water pressure overcomes the pressure inside the source and enters the source, as a result, it compresses the air inside the source, and about 40 percent of the source is filled with water.In this case, and due to the rising water level, the valve connected to the floating ball opens, allowing the stored high-pressure water to be released as soon as the water tap is opened. Since water is heavier than air, it settles at the bottom. When water is released from the reservoir, the water level drops, and as a result, the floating ball and valve also drop, closing the valve and preventing the air from escaping under pressure. As a result, this mechanism prevents the air from escaping and actually does the job of a rubber part in reservoirs with tubes and diaphragms. When the water level entering the source wants to rise above a certain value, the air volume control device turns on the air pump to inject compressed air into the source, depending on the change in the height of the water surface and the float placed on the water surface. Also, the air pressure inside the source is measured by the pressure switch, and when the air pressure exceeds or falls below the threshold value, it gives the air pump the command to turn off or on. In this way, the liquid height inside the source and the air pressure remain within acceptable limits. Accordingly, the turning on and off of the air pump is controlled by the air volume control device and the pressure switch. Express mention of the industrial application of the invention The present achievement, regardless of the various embodiments it may have, is related to tubeless and diaphragmless pressurized sources. These sources can be used and exploited in various industries such as the home water supply industry, firefighting, and water purification. �
