[0002] The heating system refers to the general term including boilers in the boiler room, heat exchange units, outdoor heating pipe networks, and radiators.

[0003] A boiler is an energy conversion device that inputs the chemical energy and electrical energy from fuel into the boiler, and outputs steam, high-temperature water or organic heat carriers after combustion and conversion.

[0004] A boiler consists of two main parts: the boiler itself and the furnace. The boiler refers to the container, while the furnace is the place where fuel is burned. The steam or hot water produced by the boiler can directly provide the heat energy needed for industrial production and people's daily lives.

[0005] Heating systems output a lot of energy, and the heat in this energy can ensure the heating and daily life of residents and users. In addition to the heat that is utilized, some of the energy is wasted.

[0006] Existing heating or water supply systems suffer from low levels of intelligence, significant potential energy waste, low energy utilization, limited functionality, poor safety performance, and the inability to obtain timely data on well operations, leading to a higher probability of accidents. Summary of the Invention

[0007] The technical problem this invention aims to solve is to overcome the shortcomings of existing heating or water supply systems, such as low intelligence levels, significant potential energy waste, low energy utilization, limited functionality, poor safety performance, inability to obtain timely well chamber operating data, and a high probability of accidents.

[0043] The present invention will be further illustrated by way of embodiments below, but the present invention is not limited to the scope of the embodiments described herein. Example

[0044] See Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 This embodiment provides an assembly system for use in a heating or water supply system.

[0045] The assembly system includes several data transmission nodes located in the well chamber 1 and a cloud server 2. Each data transmission node includes an energy conversion device 3, a power management module 4, a communication module 5, and a sensor module 6.

[0046] In this embodiment, the power management module functions similarly to the processing chip set and the processing module acquires the processor.

[0047] The energy conversion device is used to generate electricity using the flowing water from the water pipeline of the heating or water supply system and transmit the electrical energy to the power management module, communication module, and sensor module.

[0048] The power management module is used to acquire well chamber operation data collected by the sensor module, and the power management module is also used to upload the well chamber operation data to the cloud server through the communication module.

[0049] The energy conversion device uses the return water pipe 7 of the heating system or the water pipe (water pipe branch) of the water supply system to obtain electrical energy to power the well chamber.

[0050] The assembly system is used in the heating system, the water supply pipeline is a return water pipeline, and the well chamber operation data includes several monitoring items.

[0051] For a target monitoring project, the power management module is used to obtain target detection data from the sensor corresponding to the target detection project in the sensor module, and determine whether the target detection data meets the alarm conditions. If so, the target detection data is sent to the maintenance station corresponding to the data transmission node through the communication module, and the well operation data including the target detection data is uploaded to the cloud server.

[0052] The sensor module includes one or more of the following: a pressure and temperature sensor for detecting the heating system pipeline, a temperature sensor for detecting the well chamber, a humidity sensor, and a position sensor for detecting the opening and closing status of the well chamber cover.

[0053] Each data transmission node also includes a battery. The power management module is used to provide driving power for the sensor module to collect well chamber operation data using the battery, and to provide energy distribution for the communication module to upload well chamber operation data to the cloud server.

[0054] The power management module is also used to activate the communication module and sensor module at preset time intervals according to the heating plan.

[0055] The battery is sealed with a sealing device to prevent water and moisture from entering.

[0056] The energy conversion device is used to transmit electrical energy to the storage battery, and the storage battery is used to transmit electrical energy to the power management module, the communication module, and the sensor module;

[0057] The power management module is used to obtain the remaining working time of the data transmission node as the target detection data based on the battery power and the power of the data transmission node, and to determine whether the remaining working time is less than the preset time. If so, the remaining working time is sent to the maintenance station corresponding to the data transmission node, and the remaining working time is also uploaded to the cloud server.

[0058] Furthermore, to ensure the well chamber functions properly and to reduce the workload of personnel, this embodiment also includes:

[0059] For a target data transmission node, the cloud server is used to obtain the well chamber operation data of the target data transmission node. The well chamber operation data includes the pressure, temperature and flow rate of the water supply and return pipelines, the battery power, and the well chamber temperature and humidity.

[0060] The cloud server is also used to determine whether the battery power is less than a first preset power level.

[0061] If so, the battery power will be predicted to be less than the second preset value based on the current time, heating plan, weather, and well operation data. If so, the target data transmission node will be notified to turn off the target sensor in the sensor module and reduce the signal transmission and reception frequency of the communication module. Then, the step of judging whether the battery power is less than the first preset value will be executed again. Otherwise, the step of judging whether the battery power is less than the first preset value will be executed again.

[0062] In another embodiment, the sensor module includes a plurality of sensor devices for acquiring well chamber operation data. Each sensor device includes a priority level, and the higher the priority level of the sensor device, the greater the importance of the data collected by the sensor device in the well chamber operation.

[0063] For a target data transmission node, the cloud server is used to acquire the well chamber operation data of the target data transmission node;

[0064] The cloud server is also used to determine whether the battery power is less than a first preset power level.

[0065] If so, the difference between the battery input power and output power is obtained based on the current well chamber operating data, and the sensor device with the lowest priority is turned off according to the difference. Then, the step of determining whether the battery power is less than the first preset power level is executed again.

[0066] Otherwise, based on the difference, activate a sensor device with a priority level one lower than the current priority level, and then execute the step of determining whether the battery power is less than the first preset power level again.

[0067] The difference reflects whether the charging amount meets the consumption amount. If it is positive, the charging amount is greater than the power consumption, the system is stable, and all sensors can operate. If the difference is negative, some unnecessary sensors should be shut down to ensure that basic well chamber working data is obtained.

[0068] Of the two energy-saving self-protection schemes mentioned above, one is to reduce the transmission and reception frequency, and the other is to shut down the sensors sequentially according to their levels. The two schemes can be used in combination.

[0069] That is, the sensors are turned off in sequence according to their levels, while the transmission and reception frequency and the acquisition frequency are reduced.

The angle between the axis of the return pipe and the axis of the main body of the pipe section is an acute angle. The connection between the return pipe and the main body of the pipe section is located between the top and bottom ends of the booster pipe.

If the battery power will be less than the second preset power level, the system will notify the target data transmission node to turn off the target sensor in the sensor module and reduce the signal transmission and reception frequency of the communication module. Then, the system will execute the step of judging whether the battery power is less than the first preset power level again.
