AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

"The invention is about a method and equipment for pumping fluids using gravitational force. The method involves using a pumping chamber with elastic parts that can change in size to create a vacuum and suction effect, which draws liquid into the chamber. The process is simple and requires no additional power. The elastic parts are designed to have a negative effect on the environment, as they create a vacuum when the piston is moved. The invention has several advantages, including the use of a vacuum to create suction, the absence of charging power, and the fact that the elastic parts can change in size to create the vacuum. The speed at which the liquid flows through the system is also controlled by the size of the liquid collecting space. Overall, the invention provides a simple and effective way to pump fluids using gravitational force."

Problems solved by technology

Heat pumps collecting heat from air whose temperature changes every day is the least economic.
The main disadvantage of these renewable forms is their inconsistency.
Another disadvantage is the price the investor must pay and the time needed for a return in investment.
Investing into pumping equipment of underground water with electricity produced by the mentioned renewable sources significantly increases the cost of the actual system with a heat pump.
A disadvantage of traditional pump systems is its consumption of electricity, which is normally paid-for energy, and the moving parts within the pump system, which can wear out in time.
The disadvantage is the necessity of inducing further pressurized media in order to maintain the lift of pumped liquid.
A disadvantage is the necessity of permanent participation of drive with each pumping lift leading to a higher consumption of energy when securing the pumping cycle.
The necessity of subsequent supply of heat energy and the small pumping power range are considered its disadvantages.
The electric input of the equipment for pumping water, or to be precise for maintaining lift and flow, is attributed to the total input of the system and therefore decreases the COP of the heat pump and the efficiency of the entire heating system.
Besides the consumption of electricity needed to secure the flow, another disadvantage is the necessity of regularly cleaning the heat pump evaporator channels due to mineral deposits resulting from water flow.
These systems also have increased demands on water filtration and the electric pumps can be infiltrated by sand and impurities stemming from the drill hole.
Traditional pumping equipment with moving parts within its construction can operate for a shorter time; the equipment's life cycle is also limited.

example 1

[0098]Example 1 of the invention is evident in FIG. 6. On the property there is a source drill hole 1 and drain drill hole 2. The drill holes are cased with casing 3. At drill hole 1 there is loose material 19 in a saturated layer and the casing is perforated 4 in this sector. Under the casing, there is a sludge space that is not illustrated in the figure. At drain drill hole 2 which is usually not so deep, casing 3 is perforated at sector 4. At this point there is seepage of cooled water via the loose material 19. Drill hole 1 is further equipped with a manipulation shaft 6 with a cover 7. The manipulation shaft can have frost-proof insulation 8. The shaft can be placed on plate 9 with a head lid 10 that prevents the transfer of weight from the shaft 6 to the casing 3. The same applies for drill hole 2 with the presence of plate 11 with head lid 12. A weight-bearing plate 14 has been embedded via sealing into the exterior casing of the heat pump 13, which is located on plate 11. In...

example 2

[0100]In accordance to FIG. 11 a house or premises with an interior heat pump HP with an interiorly and / or exteriorly located suction-pumping chamber for the over-pumping of water from drill holes and / or from wells into drain drill holes and / or wells in accordance to the invention while the suction chamber is located outside the drill holes. The suction-pumping chamber can also be located inside the generator of the inside heat pump.

example 3

[0101]In accordance to FIG. 12 a house or premises with suction-pumping chamber located inside and at a certain height. Water is pumped from a source, for example a drill hole, and flows out gravitationally from the pumping chamber into the collection tank from where it is distributed to the place of consumption within the premises. It is natural for the water pressure from the house's distribution to be further increased via a circulation pump or air compressor with relatively low energetic demands.

Abstract

A heating system with a heat pump uses as a source of heat energy of a water, which consists of at least one integral and / or connected tubing (23, 22, 26) leading from the source drill hole (1) and / or well into the disposal drill hole (2) and / or well, during which the tubing is connected via a heat exchanger and / or an evaporator to heat pump generator and at least one suction and pumping chamber (27) of such construction is offering a flexible change of its volume, where the movement and flow of water through tubing from the collecting site is achieved by a suction effect and vacuum in chamber (27), and at least one outlet opening (30) is in the bottom part of the chamber (27) and / or exchanger (29), which can be realized as a controllable-type valve, and / or sliding door, and / or flap through which the cooled water flows out preferentially into the drain parts (33) of the drill hole (2) and / or well, and the heat energy of the water which flows out and / or flows through the exchanger of the heat pump evaporator is collected directly, and / or by way of operative medium of the compressor (17), the heat energy for heating and / or for cooling is further transferred into the selected heating system (40) within the premises (39), and the medium of the compressor circuit circulates through collecting vessel (42), dehydrator and filter (41), controllable valve (44) and at least one throttling element (45).

Description

TECHNICAL FIELD[0001]The submitted invention describes a heating system with a heat pump that collects heat energy from water, which is pumped from the location of its occurrence by way of pumping equipment. In this situation underground water is preferentially used as a source of heat energy for heat pumps; the water is either from a drill hole and / or from a well.[0002]According to this invention the heating system with heat pump serves to heat homes, flats, buildings and other areas. Water that is pumped by gravitational pumping equipment can simultaneously be used to supply the house. Implementing this type of heating system is possible in those situations in which there is an adequate water source.[0003]During thermodynamic heating with a heat pump, natural renewable heat energy from a selected primary source is normally collected and over-pumped to the secondary side of the system where produced heat and / or cold is given and utilized for the heating and / or cooling of space and / ...
