Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of water supply flow detection, and in particular to a flow detection device and method for a water supply system. Background Art
[0002] As an important part of urban infrastructure, the water supply system is responsible for the stable and safe supply of water resources to residents, industry, agriculture and other fields. The system usually includes multiple links such as water sources, pumping stations, pipe networks, water storage facilities and end users. Its efficient operation is directly related to the sustainable development of social economy and the quality of people's lives. With the acceleration of urbanization and the increase in population density, higher requirements are placed on the monitoring and management of water supply systems, especially the accurate detection of flow, which has become one of the key technologies to ensure the stable operation of the system and optimize resource allocation.
[0003] Flow detection plays a pivotal role in the water supply system. First, it can help managers grasp the water supply in real time, ensure the balance between supply and demand, and avoid resource waste or shortage. Second, flow data is an important basis for evaluating system efficiency and diagnosing potential problems, which helps to take timely measures, reduce maintenance costs, and improve the overall performance of the system. In addition, accurate flow information is also crucial for water fee collection and water quality monitoring, which is directly related to the economic interests of users and the rational use of water resources.
[0004] In view of the importance of flow detection, a variety of flow detection technologies have emerged in the market. Among them, turbine flowmeters have been widely used in water supply systems due to their simple structure, wide measurement range, and high accuracy. The working principle of turbine flowmeters is based on the kinetic energy conversion of fluids. That is, when water flows through the turbine in the flowmeter, it drives the turbine blades to rotate. The rotation speed is proportional to the water flow speed. By measuring the rotation speed of the turbine and combining the geometric dimensions of the turbine and the fluid characteristics, the flow rate of the fluid can be calculated.
[0005] However, although turbine flowmeters have shown many advantages in flow detection in water supply systems, they still have defects that cannot be ignored in practical applications. Specifically, when it is necessary to stop the water supply or close the valve for maintenance, inspection and other operations, the water flow will be quickly interrupted. However, since the rotor of the turbine flowmeter has a certain mass and moment of inertia, even if the water flow has stopped, the rotor will continue to rotate for a period of time due to inertia. This phenomenon is called "inertial rotation". This inertial rotation will cause the flowmeter reading to continue to increase, while in fact the water flow has stopped, resulting in serious inaccuracy in flow detection. This inaccuracy not only misleads management decisions, but may also trigger a series of chain reactions such as uneven resource allocation and cost calculation errors, which will have an adverse impact on the stable operation of the water supply system and the interests of users.

[0015] The present invention provides a flow detection device and method for a water supply system, which has the following beneficial effects:
[0016] 1. The present invention utilizes an outer tube to be connected with a pipeline in a water supply system, and utilizes a polyfluoroethylene inner tube to transport water flow. When water flow generates water pressure, the water pressure can push the sliding plate to move the slider to the right through the first strong magnetic field and the second strong magnetic field until the first contact point and the second contact point contact each other, thereby powering the de-energized electromagnet to cause it to lose its magnetism, thereby driving the turbine blades to drive the rotating rod to rotate under the action of the water pressure, and utilizing a magnetoelectric sensor to monitor the rotation speed of the turbine blades, thereby converting the flow rate of the water flow.
[0017] 2. When the water supply is stopped, the water stops flowing and the water pressure disappears. Under the elastic force of the spring, the sliding plate is pulled to move the slider to the left through the first strong magnetic field and the second strong magnetic field, causing the first contact and the second contact to separate. The power-off type electromagnet stops supplying power, causing its magnetism to recover, and then the power-off type electromagnet is used to absorb the iron sheet currently corresponding to its position, so that the turntable can be positioned. The turntable can be further used to position the turbine blades through the rotating rod, thereby preventing the turbine blades from continuing to rotate due to inertia.
[0018] 3. This device can brake the turbine blades immediately after the water supply system stops supplying water, effectively eliminating the flow detection error caused by the inertial rotation of the turbine blades after the water flow is interrupted. This not only ensures the real-time and accuracy of the flow data, provides a reliable basis for decision-making for managers of the water supply system, but also avoids problems such as waste of resources and cost calculation errors caused by mismeasurement of flow, ensures the stable operation of the water supply system and the legitimate rights and interests of users, and further optimizes the rational allocation and utilization of water resources.

The front and rear ends of the sliding plate 81 can be slidably adapted and plugged into the right part of the inner cavity of the two second sliding grooves 5, respectively. The inner cavity of the sliding plate 81 can be slidably adapted and plugged into the outer wall of the second guide rod 7. The inner wall of the inner cavity of the sliding plate 81 is provided with a plurality of first rolling grooves 82 equidistantly along the circumferential direction. The first rolling ball 83 can be rollably adapted and plugged into the inner cavity of the first rolling groove 82. The outer wall of the first rolling ball 83 contacts the outer wall of the first guide rod 6. The first rolling ball 83 can be used to To reduce the friction between the sliding plate 81 and the first guide rod 6, the length of the first ball 83 inserted into the inner cavity of the first rolling groove 82 is greater than its radius, preventing the first ball 83 from escaping from the inner cavity of the first rolling groove 82, and the water pushing cover 84 is arranged at the middle part of the outer wall of the sliding plate 81. The water pushing cover 84 is used to increase the water retaining area, thereby ensuring that the impact force generated by the water flow can push the water pushing cover 84 to drive the sliding plate 81 to move to the right. The number of the first strong magnets 85 is two, and the two first strong magnets 85 are respectively arranged at the front and rear ends of the sliding plate 81.

The second strong magnet 810 is a prior art and will not be described in detail here.

There are two support frames 812, which are respectively arranged at the left ends of the front and rear sides of the outer wall of the polyfluoroethylene inner tube 3.The second contact 813 is arranged on the left side of the support frame 812. The position of the second contact 813 corresponds to the position of the first contact 811. The two second contacts 813 are electrically connected to the two power-off type electromagnets 94 respectively. The left side of the second contact 813 is located to the left of the right side of the inner cavity of the first slide slot 4, ensuring that the first contact 811 can contact the second contact 813.
[0035] The working principle includes the following steps:
[0036] Step 1. This device is connected to the water pipe of the water supply system through the outer tube 1, and the polyfluoroethylene inner tube 3 is used to transport water flow, and the water flow is ensured to flow from left to right. The first contact 811 is connected to the external power supply. When the water is supplied, the water flow from left to right forms a water pressure that impacts the water push cover 84 and the turbine blades 12. The water flow impacting the water push cover 84 will prompt the water push cover 84 to drive the sliding plate 81 to move to the right, and then use the sliding plate 81 to drive the first strong magnet 85 to move to the right, and stretch the spring 86 to elastically deform, and at the same time use the first rolling ball 83 reduces the friction between the sliding plate 81 and the second guide rod 7, ensuring that the sliding plate 81 can move smoothly to the right. When the first strong magnet 85 moves to the right, the second strong magnet 810 is attracted by the magnetic force to drive the slider 87 to move to the right. At the same time, the second rolling ball 89 is used to reduce the friction between the slider 87 and the first guide rod 6, ensuring that the slider 87 moves smoothly to the right, so that the slider 87 drives the first contact 811 to move to the right until the first contact 811 and the second contact 813 are in contact, thereby forming a circuit conduction, and the power-off type The electromagnet 94 loses its magnetism when it is energized. At the same time, the water pressure impacts the turbine blade 12, causing the turbine blade 12 to drive the rotating rod 11 to rotate. The rotating rod 11 rotates and drives the turntable 91 to rotate. Since the rotation angular velocity of the turbine blade 12 is proportional to the fluid flow rate, and the magnetoelectric sensor 2 can generate a stable magnetic field using permanent magnets, when the turbine blade 12 rotates, the turbine blade 12 will periodically cut the magnetic lines of force generated by the permanent magnets, thereby generating an induced electromotive force. According to Faraday's law of electromagnetic induction, the magnitude of the induced electromotive force is proportional to the strength of the magnetic field, the speed of the conductor, and the effective length of the conductor in the magnetic field. As the turbine blade 12 rotates, the magnetic flux in the sensing coil changes periodically, thereby generating an induced electromotive force proportional to the turbine rotation speed. The sensing coil sends the detected induced electromotive force signal to the preamplifier for amplification and shaping processing, generating a pulse signal proportional to the flow rate, and these pulse signals are then sent to the unit conversion and flow integration circuit for processing, and finally the cumulative flow value and the instantaneous flow value are obtained and displayed, thereby detecting the flow;
[0037] Step 2, when the valve needs to be closed to stop the water supply, the water flow stops moving, and the water push cover 84 loses the impact force of the water flow, and then the sliding plate 81 can be pulled to the left under the elastic force of the spring 86. The sliding plate 81 moves to the left and uses the cooperation between the first strong magnet 85 and the second strong magnet 810 to drive the first contact 811 to move to the left through the slider 87 until the sliding plate 81 and the slider 87 return to their initial positions. When the first contact 811 and the second contact 813 are separated, the circuit is disconnected, and the power supply to the de-energized electromagnet 94 is stopped. The de-energized electromagnet 94 restores its magnetism, and uses the magnetism of the de-energized electromagnet 94 to absorb the iron sheet 92 currently corresponding to its position, thereby positioning the turntable 91 to prevent the turntable 91 from continuing to rotate, and then positioning the rotating rod 11 through the turntable 91, thereby preventing the turbine blades 12 from continuing to rotate due to inertia, thereby enhancing the accuracy of the detection result.
[0038] In summary, the present device realizes instant braking of the turbine blades 12 after the water supply system stops supplying water, thereby effectively eliminating the flow detection error caused by the inertial rotation of the turbine blades 12 after the water flow is interrupted. This not only ensures the real-time and accuracy of the flow data, and provides a reliable basis for decision-making for managers of the water supply system, but also avoids problems such as waste of resources and cost calculation errors caused by mismeasurement of flow, thereby ensuring the stable operation of the water supply system and the legitimate rights and interests of users, and further optimizing the rational allocation and utilization of water resources.

8. A flow detection method for a water supply system, applied to a flow detection device for a water supply system as claimed in claim 7, specifically comprising the following steps: Step 1: The device is connected to a water pipe of a water supply system through an outer pipe (1), and a polyfluoroethylene inner pipe (3) is used to transport water, and the water flow is ensured to flow from left to right. The first contact (811) is connected to an external power source. When the water is supplied, the water flow from left to right forms a water pressure that impacts the water push cover (84) and the turbine blades (12). The water flow impacting the water push cover (84) prompts the water push cover (84) to drive the sliding plate (81) to move to the right, and then the sliding plate (81) is used to drive the first strong magnet (85) to move to the right, and the spring (86) is stretched to undergo elastic deformation, and at the same time, the water pressure is used to generate a pressure drop. The first rolling ball (83) reduces the friction between the sliding plate (81) and the second guide rod (7), ensuring that the sliding plate (81) can move smoothly to the right. When the first strong magnet (85) moves to the right, it attracts the second strong magnet (810) under the action of magnetic force to drive the slider (87) to move to the right. At the same time, the second rolling ball (89) reduces the friction between the slider (87) and the first guide rod (6), ensuring that the slider (87) moves smoothly to the right. The slider (87) drives the first contact (811) to move to the right until the first contact (811) and the second contact (813) are in contact. The electric circuit is connected, and the de-energized electromagnet (94) loses its magnetism when it is energized. At the same time, the water pressure impacts the turbine blades (12), causing the turbine blades (12) to drive the rotating rod (11) to rotate. The rotating rod (11) rotates and drives the turntable (91) to rotate. Since the rotational angular velocity of the turbine blades (12) is proportional to the fluid flow rate, and the magnetoelectric sensor (2) can generate a stable magnetic field using permanent magnets, when the turbine blades (12) rotate, the turbine blades (12) will periodically cut the magnetic lines of force generated by the permanent magnets, thereby generating an induced electromotive force. According to Faraday's law, According to the law of magnetic induction, the magnitude of the induced electromotive force is proportional to the strength of the magnetic field, the speed of the conductor and the effective length of the conductor in the magnetic field. As the turbine blades (12) rotate, the magnetic flux in the sensing coil changes periodically, thereby generating an induced electromotive force proportional to the turbine rotation speed. The sensing coil sends the detected induced electromotive force signal to the preamplifier for amplification and shaping processing, thereby generating a pulse signal proportional to the flow rate. These pulse signals are then sent to the unit conversion and flow accumulation circuit for processing, and finally the accumulated flow value and the instantaneous flow value are obtained and displayed, thereby detecting the flow rate; Step 2: When the valve is closed and the water supply needs to be stopped, the water flow stops moving, and the water shield (84) loses the impact force of the water flow, and then the sliding plate (81) can be pulled to move to the left under the elastic force of the spring (86). The sliding plate (81) moves to the left by utilizing the cooperation between the first strong magnet (85) and the second strong magnet (810) to drive the first contact (811) to move to the left through the slider (87), until the sliding plate (81) and the slider (87) return to their initial positions. When the first contact (811) is moved to the left, the sliding plate (81) and the slider (87) return to their initial positions. After the contact (11) and the second contact (813) are separated, the circuit is disconnected, and the power supply to the de-energized electromagnet (94) stops. The de-energized electromagnet (94) recovers its magnetism, and the magnetism of the de-energized electromagnet (94) is used to absorb the iron sheet (92) currently corresponding to its position, thereby positioning the turntable (91) and preventing the turntable (91) from continuing to rotate. The rotating rod (11) is then positioned through the turntable (91), thereby preventing the turbine blades (12) from continuing to rotate due to inertia, thereby enhancing the accuracy of the detection result.
