AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Existing water pumps are ineffective in detecting and mitigating flooding in hard-to-reach areas like elevator shafts, leading to potential building damage and evacuation costs due to undetected water ingress.

Method used

A self-sustaining water pump system with sensors and control units that automatically activate and deactivate based on water levels, equipped with filters and communication capabilities for real-time monitoring and alerting.

Benefits of technology

Effectively detects and mitigates flooding in inaccessible areas, preventing damage by automatically pumping out water and alerting authorities, reducing the need for costly manual interventions.

Abstract

A water pump system with water pumps each having a water inlet. The system is configured with an oil separator, a water filter and a control unit and a sensor system. The water pump is placed in a cavity such as an elevator shaft. The sensor system is controlled by the control unit for detecting water in the cavity. The control unit activates the water pumps when a water level threshold is surpassed. The control unit deactivates the water pumps when the water level is below said threshold. An alarm system may be configured, as well as multiple sensors of different types to detect a flooding of the cavity and to rule out false negative and false positive alarms.
