Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of online cleaning of heat exchange equipment, and in particular to a rubber ball cleaning device with a bypass ball point device, and a condenser comprising the rubber ball cleaning device. Background Art

[0002] Some heat exchange equipment (such as the condenser of a central air conditioner) has multiple heat exchange tubes, and cooling water circulates inside to exchange heat with a heat medium. After running for a period of time, sludge, dissolved salts, etc. in the cooling water will be deposited on the inner wall of the heat exchange tube, resulting in a decrease in heat exchange efficiency. For this reason, a rubber ball cleaning device is used in the art to clean the heat exchange tube online. This rubber ball cleaning device has an inlet pipe and an outlet pipe, and a ball sending and receiving mechanism connected to the inlet pipe and the outlet pipe. The ball sending and receiving mechanism is used to send a rubber ball to the inlet pipe, and the rubber ball enters the heat exchange tube with the inlet water. As the rubber ball squeezes and scrubs the inner wall of the heat exchange tube, the sediment on the inner wall of the heat exchange tube is removed, and then the rubber ball leaves the heat exchange tube with the outlet water and is recovered by the ball sending and receiving device at the outlet pipe. Summary of the invention

[0003] In a first aspect of the present invention, there is provided a rubber ball cleaning device with a bypass ball-tipping device, comprising: a first ball storage chamber connected to a water outlet pipe; a second ball storage chamber; a main valve located between the first ball storage chamber and the second ball storage chamber, and when opened, the rubber balls are transferred from the first ball storage chamber to the second ball storage chamber; a ball-tipping device located between the first ball storage chamber and the second ball storage chamber; a ball-tipping valve located between the ball-tipping device and the first ball storage chamber, or between the ball-tipping device and the second ball storage chamber, and when opened, the rubber balls are transferred from the second ball storage chamber to the first ball storage chamber via the ball-tipping device, or from the first ball storage chamber to the second ball storage chamber via the ball-tipping device, for counting the number of rubber balls; wherein the ball-tipping device is non-contact.

[0004] According to the scheme, a bypass penalty channel independent of the ball receiving and serving system is installed on the rubber ball cleaning device. When penalty is needed, the penalty valve and the penalty device on the channel are opened, so that the rubber ball is transferred between the first ball storage chamber and the second ball storage chamber through the bypass channel, and the number of rubber balls is counted directly and smoothly, avoiding the risk of rubber ball blockage that is very easy to occur when the penalty device is installed on the ball receiving tube or the ball serving tube. The penalty bypass channel of the cleaning device can independently penalty without relying on the ball receiving or serving process of the equipment, and can achieve real-time tracking of the number of rubber balls and the operating status of the equipment. The water flow speed that drives the rubber ball to move in the bypass penalty channel is moderate, and flows at a speed suitable for penalty, which can not only avoid the blockage of the rubber ball in the entire device, but also avoid the inaccurate counting caused by large water volume and too fast rubber ball movement speed when serving or receiving the ball synchronously. It can also avoid the situation where the rubber ball cannot be sent out or retrieved due to slowing down the water volume for counting. The rubber ball cleaning device adopts a non-contact ball-pointing device, which does not need to contact the rubber ball to be tested, thus avoiding potential damage or contamination to the rubber ball. The ball-pointing device is resistant to high temperature or high humidity environment, has stronger safety and reliability, faster response speed and higher counting accuracy. In addition, the ball-pointing channel structure in the cleaning device is streamlined, with only one bypass for installing the ball-pointing valve and the ball-pointing device, and there is no need to design multiple ball-pointing channels to realize the ball-pointing. The equipment is easy to install and occupies a small area, which correspondingly reduces the manufacturing cost and installation cost.

[0005] In some embodiments, the ball spotter of the rubber ball cleaning device includes an optical fiber transmitting end and an optical fiber receiving end. When the rubber ball passes between the optical fiber transmitting end and the optical fiber receiving end, the optical signal is blocked from being transmitted to the optical fiber receiving end.

[0006] According to the scheme, when the rubber ball passes through the spotting device in the spotting bypass, the light signal is blocked from being transmitted to the optical fiber receiving end, thereby realizing the counting of the rubber balls. The optical fiber sensor has high sensitivity, which can make the counting of the rubber balls more accurate.

[0007] In some schemes, the first ball storage chamber of the rubber ball cleaning device is connected to the water outlet pipe through the ball receiving port and the water outlet; the third ball storage chamber is located below the second ball storage chamber, and is connected to the water inlet pipe through the water intake port and the ball serving port; the ball serving valve is located between the second ball storage chamber and the third ball storage chamber.

[0008] According to the scheme, a bypass penalty channel independent of the ball receiving and serving system is installed on the rubber ball cleaning device. When penalty is needed, the penalty valve and the penalty device on the channel are opened, so that the rubber ball is transferred between the first ball storage chamber and the second ball storage chamber through the bypass channel, and the number of rubber balls is counted directly and smoothly, avoiding the risk of rubber ball blockage that is very easy to occur when the penalty device is installed on the ball receiving tube or the ball serving tube. The penalty bypass channel of the cleaning device can independently penalty without relying on the ball receiving or serving process of the equipment, and can achieve real-time tracking of the number of rubber balls and the operating status of the equipment. The water flow speed that drives the rubber ball to move in the bypass penalty channel is moderate, and flows at a speed suitable for penalty, which can not only avoid the blockage of the rubber ball in the entire device, but also avoid the inaccurate counting caused by large water volume and too fast rubber ball movement speed when serving or receiving the ball synchronously. It can also avoid the situation where the rubber ball cannot be sent out or retrieved due to slowing down the water volume for counting. In addition, the penalty channel structure in the cleaning device is streamlined, with only one bypass for installing the penalty valve and the penalty device. There is no need to design multiple penalty channels to achieve penalty. The equipment is easy to install and occupies a small area, which correspondingly reduces the manufacturing cost and installation cost.

[0009] In some embodiments, the ball serving valve has a preset position between a fully open position and a fully closed position; when the main valve is closed, the ball serving valve is opened to the preset position, and the ball counting valve is opened, the rubber ball in the second ball storage chamber passes through the ball counting device and enters the first ball storage chamber, and the ball counting device counts the number of rubber balls.

[0010] According to the scheme, the main valve is opened to allow the rubber ball to fall into the second ball storage chamber, and then the main valve is closed. At this time, the penalty valve is opened, and the serving valve is opened to the preset position. The rubber ball cleaning device enters the penalty state. When the serving valve is in the preset position, because the pressure of the water inlet pipe is higher than that of the water outlet pipe, the water flows through the second ball storage chamber, and carries the rubber ball in the second ball storage chamber through the bypass penalty channel into the first ball storage chamber. When the rubber ball passes through the penalty device on the bypass penalty channel, the penalty device counts the number of rubber balls passing through to realize the function of rubber ball counting. After all the rubber balls flow into the first ball storage chamber, the penalty ends. At this time, the serving valve and the penalty valve are closed, and the main valve is opened to collect the rubber ball from the first ball storage chamber to the second ball storage chamber, and enter the next penalty preparation state. The penalty process does not need to rely on the equipment serving or collecting process, and can realize the real-time counting of the number of rubber balls, which is convenient for timely observation of the rubber ball collection rate and the operation status of the entire equipment. In this solution, the water flow that drives the rubber ball to move in the penalty shot channel can be realized by opening the ball-serving valve at a specific position. No additional structures are needed to control the water flow during the penalty shot process. The equipment is streamlined, and the manufacturing and installation costs are reduced. In addition, by setting the preset position of the ball-serving valve, the water flow speed that drives the rubber ball to move can be controlled, so that the rubber ball passes through the penalty shot device at a moderate speed, which can avoid the blockage of the rubber ball and the problem of inaccurate counting caused by the excessive movement of the rubber ball.

[0011] In some schemes, the rubber ball cleaning device also includes a water intake valve, which is located between the second ball storage chamber and the water inlet pipe; when the main valve is closed, the ball serving valve is closed, the water intake valve is opened, and the ball counting valve is opened, the rubber balls in the second ball storage chamber pass through the ball counting device and enter the first ball storage chamber, and the ball counting device counts the number of rubber balls.

[0012] According to the scheme, the main valve is opened to allow the rubber ball to fall into the second ball storage chamber, and then the main valve is closed. The serving valve is closed, and the water intake valve and the ball-pointing valve are opened at this time. The rubber ball cleaning device enters the ball-pointing state, and the water flows through the second ball storage chamber, and carries the rubber ball in the second ball storage chamber through the bypass ball-pointing channel into the first ball storage chamber. When the rubber ball passes through the ball-pointing device on the bypass ball-pointing channel, the ball-pointing device counts the number of rubber balls passing through to realize the function of counting rubber balls. After all the rubber balls flow into the first ball storage chamber, the ball-pointing ends. At this time, the water intake valve and the ball-pointing valve are closed, and the main valve is opened to collect the rubber balls from the first ball storage chamber to the second ball storage chamber, and enter the next ball-pointing preparation state. The ball-pointing process does not need to rely on the equipment serving or collecting process, and can realize the real-time counting of the number of rubber balls, which is convenient for timely observation of the rubber ball collection rate and the operating status of the entire equipment. The connection between the second ball storage chamber and the water inlet pipe is controlled by the water intake valve, and a water flow is introduced to drive the rubber ball to move in the ball-pointing channel, so that the rubber ball passes through the ball-pointing device at a moderate speed, which can avoid the blockage of the rubber ball and the problem of inaccurate counting caused by the rubber ball moving too fast. Water is taken through the water intake valve instead of opening the ball-serving valve, which avoids the risk of the rubber ball being sent out when the ball-serving valve is opened too wide.

[0013] In some schemes, the rubber ball cleaning device also includes a water intake valve, which is located between the second ball storage chamber and the third ball storage chamber; when the main valve is closed, the ball serving valve is closed, the water intake valve is opened, and the ball counting valve is opened, the rubber balls in the second ball storage chamber pass through the ball counting device and enter the first ball storage chamber, and the ball counting device counts the number of rubber balls.

[0014] According to the scheme, the main valve is opened to allow the rubber ball to fall into the second ball storage chamber, and then the main valve is closed. The serving valve is closed, and the water intake valve and the ball-pointing valve are opened at this time. The rubber ball cleaning device enters the ball-pointing state, and the water flows through the second ball storage chamber, and carries the rubber ball in the second ball storage chamber through the bypass ball-pointing channel into the first ball storage chamber. When the rubber ball passes through the ball-pointing device on the bypass ball-pointing channel, the ball-pointing device counts the number of rubber balls passing through to realize the function of rubber ball counting. After all the rubber balls flow into the first ball storage chamber, the ball-pointing ends. At this time, the water intake valve and the ball-pointing valve are closed, and the main valve is opened. The rubber ball falls from the first ball storage chamber into the second ball storage chamber, and enters the next ball-pointing preparation state. The ball-pointing process does not need to rely on the equipment's serving or collecting process, and can realize the real-time counting of the number of rubber balls, which is convenient for timely observation of the rubber ball collection rate and the operating status of the entire equipment. The connection between the second ball storage chamber and the third ball storage chamber is controlled by the water intake valve, and the water flow that drives the rubber ball to pass through the ball-pointing channel is introduced, so that the rubber ball passes through the ball-pointing device at a moderate speed, which can avoid the blockage of the rubber ball and the problem of inaccurate counting caused by the rubber ball moving too fast. Water is no longer drawn by opening the ball-serving valve when drawing water through the water intake valve, which avoids the risk of the rubber ball being ejected when the ball-serving valve is opened too wide.

[0015] In some schemes, the rubber ball cleaning device also includes a drain valve located between the second ball storage chamber and the drain ditch; when the main valve is closed, the ball serving valve is closed, the drain valve is opened, and the ball counting valve is opened, the rubber balls in the first ball storage chamber pass through the ball counting device and enter the second ball storage chamber, and the ball counting device counts the number of rubber balls.

[0016] According to the scheme, after the rubber balls are recovered to the first ball storage chamber, the main valve and the serving valve are kept closed, the ball-pointing valve is opened at this time, and the drain valve is opened to drain water, the rubber ball cleaning device enters the ball-pointing state, the water flows through the first ball storage chamber and carries the rubber balls in the first ball storage chamber through the bypass ball-pointing channel to enter the second ball storage chamber, when the rubber balls pass through the ball-pointing device on the bypass ball-pointing channel, the ball-pointing device counts the number of rubber balls passing through to realize the function of rubber ball counting, after all the rubber balls flow into the second ball storage chamber, the drain valve and the ball-pointing valve are closed, and the ball-pointing ends. The ball-pointing process does not need to rely on the ball-serving or ball-collecting process of the equipment, and can realize the real-time counting of the number of rubber balls, which is convenient for timely observation of the rubber ball collection rate and the operating status of the entire equipment. By adding a drain valve between the second ball storage chamber and the drain ditch, the water flow drives the rubber balls through the ball-pointing device at a moderate speed, thereby achieving accurate counting of the rubber balls and avoiding blockage of the rubber balls. The water flow carries the rubber balls from the first ball storage chamber through the ball-pointing device into the second ball storage chamber, where they are intercepted by the filter screen of the second ball storage chamber and enter the preparation state before serving, thereby synchronously pointing the balls before serving, improving the operating efficiency of the equipment, and realizing real-time statistics and monitoring of the number of rubber balls before serving, facilitating timely replenishment of rubber balls and improving cleaning efficiency.

[0017] In some schemes, the rubber ball cleaning device also includes a return valve, which is located between the second ball storage chamber and the water outlet pipe; when the main valve is closed, the ball valve is closed, the return valve is opened, and the ball counting valve is opened, the rubber balls in the first ball storage chamber pass through the ball counting device and enter the second ball storage chamber, and the ball counting device counts the number of rubber balls.

[0018] According to the scheme, after the rubber balls are recovered to the first ball storage chamber, the main valve and the serving valve are kept closed, and the penalty valve and the return valve are opened at this time, and the rubber ball cleaning device enters the penalty state, and the water flows through the first ball storage chamber and carries the rubber balls in the first ball storage chamber through the bypass penalty channel to enter the second ball storage chamber. When the rubber balls pass through the penalty device on the bypass penalty channel, the penalty device counts the number of rubber balls passing through to realize the rubber ball counting function. After all the rubber balls flow into the second ball storage chamber, the penalty valve and the return valve are closed to end the penalty. The penalty process does not need to rely on the equipment's serving or collecting process, and can realize the real-time counting of the number of rubber balls, which is convenient for timely observation of the rubber ball collection rate and the operating status of the entire equipment. By setting a return valve between the second ball storage chamber and the water outlet pipe, the water flow drives the rubber balls to pass through the ball-pointing device at a moderate speed, thereby achieving accurate counting of the rubber balls and avoiding blockage of the rubber balls. The water flow carries the rubber balls from the first ball storage chamber through the ball-pointing device into the second ball storage chamber, where they are intercepted by the filter screen of the second ball storage chamber and enter the preparation state before serving, thereby synchronously pointing the balls before serving, improving the operating efficiency of the equipment, and realizing real-time statistics and monitoring of the number of rubber balls before serving, facilitating timely replenishment of the rubber balls and improving cleaning efficiency.

[0019] In some embodiments, the rubber ball cleaning device has a dome-shaped end cover, which is connected to the water outlet pipe and the water inlet pipe at the same time, and the dome-shaped end cover is connected to the end of the condenser.

[0020] According to this plan, the equipment structure is stable and reliable and easy to operate. By controlling the main valve and the ball serving valve between the three ball storage chambers, it can realize synchronous ball receiving and sending, and independent real-time penalty kicking. While avoiding rubber ball blockage, it can monitor the rubber ball circulation and equipment operation status in real time to ensure stable system operation.

[0021] In some embodiments, the water outlet pipe of the rubber ball cleaning device is connected to the water outlet of the condenser, and the water inlet pipe is connected to the water inlet of the condenser.

[0022] According to this plan, the equipment has a simple structure and is easy to operate. The three ball storage chambers can cooperate with each other through the main valve and the ball serving valve to realize synchronous ball receiving and serving, as well as real-time penalty kicking. While avoiding rubber ball blockage, the rubber ball circulation situation and the status of equipment operation can be monitored in real time to ensure stable operation of the system.

[0023] In some schemes, the second ball storage chamber of the rubber ball cleaning device is located below the first ball storage chamber, the third ball storage chamber is located below the second ball storage chamber, and the first, second and third ball storage chambers are arranged in a row and are on the same side of the water outlet pipe and the water inlet pipe.

[0024] According to this plan, three ball storage chambers are arranged in a row and are on the same side of the outlet pipe and the inlet pipe, making the overall structure of the equipment more streamlined. The cooperation between the ball storage chambers through the main valve and the ball valve can realize both synchronous ball sending and receiving and online precise ball pointing, thereby improving the operating efficiency and convenience of the equipment. The arrangement of the ball storage chambers eliminates the structure of the inner and outer cylinders, which can avoid operational inconveniences caused by sludge deposition or system leakage, making the equipment run more smoothly and reliably.

[0025] In some embodiments, the rubber ball cleaning device includes a pump, which is used to pump water from the first ball storage chamber, or to supply water to the second ball storage chamber; a return valve, located between the first ball storage chamber and the water outlet pipe; and a ball-pointing valve, when opened, to transfer the rubber balls from the second ball storage chamber to the first ball storage chamber via the ball-pointing device.

[0026] According to the scheme, a bypass penalty channel independent of the ball receiving and serving system is installed on the rubber ball cleaning device. When penalty is needed, the penalty valve and the penalty device on the channel are opened, so that the rubber ball is transferred from the second ball storage chamber to the first ball storage chamber through the bypass channel, and the number of rubber balls is counted directly and smoothly, avoiding the risk of rubber ball blockage that is very easy to occur when the penalty device is installed on the ball receiving tube or the ball serving tube. The penalty bypass channel of the cleaning device can independently penalty without relying on the ball receiving or serving process of the equipment, and can achieve real-time tracking of the number of rubber balls and the operating status of the equipment. The water flow speed that drives the rubber ball to move in the bypass penalty channel is moderate, and flows at a speed suitable for penalty, which can not only avoid the blockage of the rubber ball in the entire equipment, but also avoid the inaccurate counting caused by large water volume and too fast rubber ball movement speed when serving or receiving the ball synchronously. It can also avoid the situation where the rubber ball cannot be sent out or retrieved due to slowing down the water volume for counting. In addition, the penalty channel structure in the cleaning device is streamlined, with only one bypass for installing the penalty valve and the penalty device. There is no need to design multiple penalty channels to achieve penalty. The equipment is easy to install and occupies a small area, which correspondingly reduces the manufacturing cost and installation cost.

[0027] In some schemes, when the main valve of the rubber ball cleaning device is closed, the return valve is opened, and the ball-pointing valve is opened, the first ball storage chamber is connected to the outlet pipe by the return valve, and the second ball storage chamber is connected to the inlet pipe. The pressure difference between the inlet pipe and the outlet pipe causes the rubber balls in the second ball storage chamber to pass through the ball-pointing device and enter the first ball storage chamber, and the ball-pointing device counts the number of rubber balls.

[0028] According to the scheme, after the main valve is opened to allow the rubber ball to fall into the second ball storage chamber, the main valve is closed, and the penalty valve and the return valve are opened. At this time, the rubber ball cleaning device enters the penalty state. Since the first ball storage chamber is connected to the outlet pipe, and the second ball storage chamber is connected to the inlet pipe, there is a pressure difference between the inlet pipe and the outlet pipe, so that the rubber ball in the second ball storage chamber enters the first ball storage chamber through the penalty channel with the water flow. When the rubber ball passes through the penalty device on the bypass penalty channel, the penalty device counts the number of rubber balls passing through to realize the function of rubber ball counting. After all the rubber balls flow into the first ball storage chamber, the penalty ends. At this time, the penalty valve and the return valve are closed, and the main valve is opened to collect the rubber ball from the first ball storage chamber to the second ball storage chamber, and enter the next penalty preparation state. The penalty process does not need to rely on the equipment's serving or receiving process, and can realize the real-time counting of the number of rubber balls, which is convenient for timely observation of the rubber ball collection rate and the operating status of the entire equipment. In this solution, the water flow that drives the rubber ball to move in the penalty ball channel can be realized by opening the return valve only, and no other structure is needed to control the water flow during the penalty ball process. The equipment is streamlined, and the manufacturing cost and installation cost are reduced. The water flow that drives the rubber ball to move in the penalty ball channel is introduced through the return valve, so that the rubber ball passes through the penalty ball device at a moderate speed, which can avoid the blockage of the rubber ball and the problem of inaccurate counting caused by the excessive movement speed of the rubber ball.

[0029] In some schemes, the rubber ball cleaning device also includes a drain valve located between the first ball storage chamber and the drain ditch; when the main valve is closed, the return valve is closed, the drain valve is opened, and the ball counting valve is opened, the rubber balls in the second ball storage chamber pass through the ball counting device and enter the first ball storage chamber, and the ball counting device counts the number of rubber balls.

[0030] According to the scheme, after the main valve is opened to allow the rubber ball to fall into the second ball storage chamber, the main valve is closed, the return valve remains closed, the penalty valve is opened, and the drain valve is opened to drain water. At this time, the rubber ball cleaning device enters the penalty state, and the rubber ball in the second ball storage chamber flows through the penalty channel into the first ball storage chamber. When the rubber ball passes through the penalty device on the bypass penalty channel, the penalty device counts the number of rubber balls passing through to realize the function of rubber ball counting. After all the rubber balls flow into the first ball storage chamber, the penalty ends. At this time, the penalty valve and the drain valve are closed, and the main valve is opened to collect the rubber ball from the first ball storage chamber to the second ball storage chamber, and enter the next penalty preparation state. The penalty process does not need to rely on the equipment's serving or collecting process, and can realize real-time counting of the number of rubber balls, which is convenient for timely observation of the rubber ball collection rate and the operating status of the entire equipment. In this scheme, the flow of water in the penalty channel that drives the rubber ball to move can be realized only by opening the drain valve, and no additional structures are required to control the flow of water during the penalty process. The equipment is streamlined, and the manufacturing cost and installation cost are reduced. The water flow that drives the rubber ball to move in the ball-pointing channel is introduced through the drain valve, so that the rubber ball passes through the ball-pointing device at a moderate speed, which can avoid the blockage of the rubber ball and the problem of inaccurate counting caused by the excessive movement of the rubber ball.

[0031] In some schemes, the rubber ball cleaning device also includes a curved pipe located between the second ball storage chamber and the water inlet pipe; when counting the balls, the rubber balls in the curved pipe pass through the second ball storage chamber and then pass through the ball counting device into the first ball storage chamber, and the ball counting device counts the number of rubber balls.

[0032] According to the scheme, the opening of the curved pipe near the second ball storage chamber is larger, so that more rubber balls can enter the curved pipe through the second ball storage chamber, increasing the storage space for rubber balls. When scoring, it avoids the rubber balls accumulating in the second ball storage chamber and being unable to be effectively impacted by the water flow, causing blockage. The curvature of the curved pipe is conducive to the uniform and gentle movement of the rubber balls with the water flow, and they pass through the penalty ball bypass in an orderly manner at a moderate speed, which not only avoids the blockage of the penalty ball channel but also achieves accurate counting of the rubber balls. In addition, the rubber balls enter the curved pipe through the second ball storage chamber for storage, which can also improve the efficiency of serving. When the device enters the serving state, the rubber balls are at the lower position of the water flow drop, so they can be better flushed out by the water flow, preparing for the smooth delivery of the rubber balls with the water flow. The arrangement of the rubber balls in the curved pipe makes their movement more uniform, avoiding blockage during the serving process.

[0033] In some embodiments, the rubber ball cleaning device further includes a first pump for pumping water from the first ball storage chamber to the water outlet pipe; and a second pump for supplying water from the water inlet pipe to the second ball storage chamber.

[0034] According to the scheme, the rubber ball cleaning device adopts a four-pipe structure, the first ball storage chamber is connected to the water outlet pipe through the first pipe and the second pipe, and the second ball storage chamber is connected to the water inlet pipe through the third pipe and the fourth pipe. Two pumps are used to control the water in the water outlet pipe and the water inlet pipe respectively. The water flow can be controlled separately according to the different needs of rubber ball emission, recovery or penalty kick, so as to better realize the emission, recovery or counting of rubber balls, ensure that the operation of the device is more stable and orderly, and can avoid the problem of water flow mixing in the system caused by using one pump control.

[0035] In some embodiments, the pump of the rubber ball cleaning device is used to pump water from the first ball storage chamber to the second ball storage chamber.

[0036] According to the scheme, the rubber ball cleaning device adopts a two-pipe structure, the first ball storage chamber is connected to the water outlet pipe, the second ball storage chamber is connected to the water inlet pipe, the first ball storage chamber and the second ball storage chamber are connected through a pump and a pipe. When the pump is started, the water in the water outlet pipe can pass through the first ball storage chamber into the second ball storage chamber and continue to flow into the water inlet pipe. The pipes of the rubber ball cleaning device are streamlined, and water circulation is realized by connecting the pipes of the upper and lower ball storage chambers. The number of pipes is small, and installation is convenient, which correspondingly reduces the manufacturing cost and installation cost.

[0037] In a second aspect of the present invention, a condenser is provided, comprising the colloid ball cleaning device as described in any one of the above.

[0038] According to this solution, the condenser can realize real-time online ball counting with high counting accuracy and streamlined equipment, and it is convenient to monitor and adjust the equipment status in real time by recording the number of rubber balls. The equipment has a long service life, high reliability, stable operation and excellent comprehensive performance. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0060] In order to make the purpose, scheme and advantages of the technical solution of the present invention clearer, the technical solution of the embodiment of the present invention will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the drawings of the specific embodiments of the present invention. Unless otherwise specified, the terms used herein have the usual meanings in the art. The same or corresponding reference numerals in the drawings represent the same or corresponding parts.

[0061] In order to facilitate the recording and counting of the number of rubber balls, a ball-pointing device can be installed on the rubber ball cleaning device. In some rubber ball cleaning devices, the ball-pointing device is installed on the ball receiving tube or the ball-delivering tube. When receiving / delivering the balls, the rubber balls pass through the ball-pointing device and the number is recorded. In order to reduce the blockage of rubber balls, this solution requires the design of multiple ball-pointing channels for simultaneous counting, which results in numerous equipment pipelines, complex installation, large equipment size and floor space, and correspondingly increases the manufacturing cost and installation cost. In addition, due to the high speed and large number of rubber balls passing through in an instant, there is still a risk of rubber ball blockage even if multiple channels are used, and due to the high speed of the rubber balls passing through, the counting accuracy of the rubber balls is not high. In some rubber ball cleaning devices, the volume / volume method is used to measure the height of the rubber balls placed in a fixed container to estimate the number of rubber balls. This type of solution has poor rubber ball counting accuracy and can only be used for rough estimation. It is not suitable for the central air-conditioning rubber ball cleaning industry where the number of rubber balls is small and the counting requires high accuracy. In some end-cap type rubber ball cleaning devices, the rubber ball counting sensor is installed on the ball receiving tube, but there is only one channel, which is very easy to be blocked. When the amount of water for collecting the balls is large, the rubber balls pass through quickly and the counting is inaccurate. If the amount of water for collecting the balls is small, the rubber balls cannot be collected, making the contradiction between collecting the balls and counting irreconcilable. In order to at least overcome the above problems, the present invention aims to provide a rubber ball cleaning device with a bypass ball point device that has a simplified structure and stable operation, and to provide a condenser with improved performance.

[0062] Figures 1 to 9 The structure and working principle of the integrated rubber ball cleaning device with spot ball bypass are shown; Figures 10 to 16 The structure and working principle of the pipeline rubber ball cleaning device with point ball bypass are shown; Fig.17 The structure of the ball-pointing device applicable to both types of rubber ball cleaning devices is shown. The technical solutions of the two types of rubber ball cleaning devices shown in the figure are only specific embodiments, and the present invention is not limited thereto. The ball-pointing bypass can also be installed in other types of rubber ball cleaning devices.

[0063] Combine the following Figures 1 to 9 The structure and working principle of the integrated rubber ball cleaning device with a spot ball bypass are specifically described.

[0064] Figure 1 shows a schematic diagram of an integrated rubber ball cleaning device with a dot ball bypass, Figure 1 Combined with Figure 2, Figure 3A , Figure 4 , Figure 5From the perspective of the present invention, the integrated rubber ball cleaning device 1 with the bypass ball point device 160 comprises: a first ball storage chamber 110 connected to the water outlet pipe 180; a second ball storage chamber 120; a third ball storage chamber 130 connected to the water inlet pipe 190; a ball valve 150 located between the second ball storage chamber 120 and the third ball storage chamber 130; a main valve 140 located between the first ball storage chamber 110 and the second ball storage chamber 120, and when the main valve 140 is opened, the rubber ball is transferred from the first ball storage chamber 110 to the second ball storage chamber 120; and a ball valve 150 located between the second ball storage chamber 120 and the third ball storage chamber 130. The ball-pointing device 160 between the first ball storage chamber 110 and the second ball storage chamber 120 can count the number of rubber balls when the rubber balls pass through; the ball-pointing valve 170 is located between the ball-pointing device 160 and the first ball storage chamber 110, or between the ball-pointing device 160 and the second ball storage chamber 120. When it is opened, the rubber balls are transferred from the second ball storage chamber 120 to the first ball storage chamber 110 via the ball-pointing device 160, or from the first ball storage chamber 110 to the second ball storage chamber 120 via the ball-pointing device 160, so as to count the number of rubber balls. When it is necessary to point the ball, the ball-pointing valve 170 is opened, and the control valve for controlling the water flow through the ball-pointing bypass is opened, so that the rubber balls are transferred between the first ball storage chamber 110 and the second ball storage chamber 120 through the channel of the ball-pointing bypass along with the water flow, and the number of rubber balls is recorded in real time by the non-contact ball-pointing device 160, so as to complete the point-pointing.

[0065] Figure 2 A cross-sectional view of an integrated rubber ball cleaning device with a penalty ball bypass is shown in a state before penalty ball shooting. In this state, the rubber balls are concentrated in the second ball storage chamber 120 waiting for penalty ball shooting, the main valve 140, the ball serving valve 150 and the penalty ball valve 170 are all closed, and other possible valves for controlling the flow of water through the penalty ball bypass are also not opened. The first ball storage chamber 110 is not connected to the second ball storage chamber 120, and the second ball storage chamber 120 is not connected to the third ball storage chamber 130, and the penalty ball system does not work.

[0066] Figure 3A and Figure 3B A cross-sectional view of an integrated rubber ball cleaning device with a penalty ball bypass in a penalty ball state is shown. Figure 3A and Figure 3B The difference is that Figure 3A The embodiment is to introduce water flow into the penalty ball bypass by opening the ball valve 150 to a preset position, Figure 3B The embodiment is to introduce water flow into the penalty ball bypass by opening a water intake valve (not shown in the figure).

[0067] Figure 3A Combination Figure 6From the technical solution of introducing water flow by opening the ball serving valve 150, the ball serving valve 150 has a preset position between the fully open position and the fully closed position; when penalty kick is needed, the penalty kick valve 170 is opened, the main valve 140 is closed and the ball serving valve 150 is opened to the preset position, so that the device enters the penalty kick state. When the ball serving valve 150 is in the preset position, since the pressure of the water inlet pipe 190 is higher than that of the water outlet pipe 180, the water in the device will flow through the second ball storage chamber 120, and carry the rubber balls in the second ball storage chamber 120 to the first ball storage chamber 110 through the penalty kick bypass. When the rubber balls pass through the penalty kick device 160 on the penalty kick bypass, the non-contact penalty kick device 160 counts the number of rubber balls in real time to realize penalty kick.

[0068] Figure 3B Combination Figure 7 From the technical solution of introducing water flow by opening the water intake valve, the water intake valve (not shown in the figure) is installed on the water intake pipe 111 connecting the second ball storage chamber 120 and the water inlet pipe 190. The connection between the second ball storage chamber 120 and the water inlet pipe 190 is controlled by the water intake valve. When the water intake valve is opened, the water flow that drives the rubber ball to move in the penalty bypass is introduced. When penalty is required, the main valve 140 and the ball valve 150 are closed, the penalty valve 170 and the water intake valve are opened, and the equipment enters the penalty state. The water in the water inlet pipe 190 enters the second ball storage chamber 120 through the water intake pipe 111, driving the rubber ball in the second ball storage chamber 120 to flow to the first ball storage chamber 110 through the penalty bypass. When the rubber ball passes through the penalty device 160 on the penalty bypass, the penalty device 160 counts the number of rubber balls to realize real-time penalty. In the technical solution of introducing water flow by using a water intake valve, the water intake valve can also be installed between the second ball storage chamber 120 and the third ball storage chamber 130, for example, connected between the side walls of the second ball storage chamber 120 and the third ball storage chamber 130, and Figure 3B The installation position of the water intake valve in the embodiment is different, but it can solve the problem of Figure 3B The embodiments solve the same technical problem and achieve the same technical effect.

[0069] The above-mentioned illustrated technical solutions are only specific embodiments, and the present invention is not limited thereto. Figure 8 , Fig. 9 From a different perspective, it is also possible to introduce water flow through the penalty ball bypass by installing a drain valve or a return valve. Figure 8 In the technical solution for installing a drain valve shown, the drain valve is located between the second ball storage chamber 120 and the drain ditch; when the rubber balls are recovered to the first ball storage chamber 110 and need to be kicked out, the main valve 140 and the serving valve 150 are closed, and the drain valve and the kick valve 170 are opened. At this time, the equipment enters the kick state, and the water in the equipment outlet pipe 180 enters the first ball storage chamber 110 and carries the rubber balls in the first ball storage chamber 110 into the second ball storage chamber 120 through the kick bypass. When the rubber balls pass through the kick device 160 on the kick bypass, the kick device 160 counts the number of rubber balls to realize real-time kicks. Fig. 9In the technical solution for installing the return valve shown, the return valve is installed between the second ball storage chamber 120 and the water outlet pipe 180; when the rubber ball is recovered to the first ball storage chamber 110 and needs to be kicked, the main valve 140 and the ball serving valve 150 are closed, and the kick valve 170 and the return valve are opened. At this time, the equipment enters the kick state, and the water in the equipment outlet pipe 180 enters the first ball storage chamber 110 and carries the rubber ball in the first ball storage chamber 110 into the second ball storage chamber 120 through the kick bypass. When the rubber ball passes through the kick device 160 on the kick bypass, the non-contact kick device 160 accurately counts the number of rubber balls to achieve real-time kicks.

[0070] Figure 4 The cross-sectional view of the integrated rubber ball cleaning device with penalty ball bypass in the penalty ball end state is shown. This illustrated embodiment only covers the penalty ball solution when the rubber ball flows from the second ball storage chamber 120 to the first ball storage chamber 110, but the technical solution of the present invention is not limited to this. In this illustrated embodiment, the rubber balls all flow from the second ball storage chamber 120 to the first ball storage chamber 110 in the penalty ball state. At this time, the ball valve 150 and the penalty ball valve 170 are closed, and the valve controlling the penalty ball bypass water flow is closed. The rubber balls are all concentrated in the first ball storage chamber 110, and the device is in the penalty ball end state.

[0071] Figure 5 The cross-sectional view of the integrated rubber ball cleaning device with a ball-punching bypass in the ball-punching preparation state is shown. This illustrated embodiment only covers the solution of ball-punching when the rubber ball flows from the second ball storage chamber 120 to the first ball storage chamber 110, but the technical solution of the present invention is not limited to this. Figure 5 In the embodiment shown in the figure, after the penalty kick is completed, the rubber balls are concentrated in the first ball storage chamber 110. At this time, the main valve 140 is opened to allow the rubber balls to enter the second ball storage chamber 120 from the first ball storage chamber 110 to prepare for the next penalty kick. At this time, the device is in the penalty kick preparation state. After all the rubber balls enter the second ball storage chamber 120, the main valve 140 is closed to allow the device to re-enter the penalty kick. Figure 2 The state before the penalty kick is shown, thus realizing the penalty kick cycle.

[0072] The following is a schematic diagram of the basic structure and working principle of each embodiment of the integrated rubber ball cleaning device. The specific structure can be referred to in the previous Figures 1 to 5 The structural variations shown indicate that these embodiments all fall within the scope of protection of this patent.

[0073] Figure 6The schematic diagram of the structure of the integrated rubber ball cleaning device using the ball valve to control the water flow of the point ball bypass is shown. In this embodiment, the rubber ball cleaning device includes a first ball storage chamber 110 connected to the water outlet pipe 180; a second ball storage chamber 120; a third ball storage chamber connected to the water inlet pipe 190, which is not shown in the figure and can be a chamber of various forms located between the ball valve and the water inlet pipe; a ball valve 150 located between the second ball storage chamber 120 and the third ball storage chamber, and the ball valve 150 has a pre-open position and a fully closed position. The main valve 140 is located between the first ball storage chamber 110 and the second ball storage chamber 120. When the main valve 140 is opened, the rubber balls are transferred from the first ball storage chamber 110 to the second ball storage chamber 120. The ball-pointing device 160 is located between the first ball storage chamber 110 and the second ball storage chamber 120. The number of rubber balls can be counted when the rubber balls pass through. The ball-pointing valve 170 is located between the ball-pointing device 160 and the second ball storage chamber 120. When it is opened, the rubber balls are transferred from the second ball storage chamber 120 to the first ball storage chamber 110 via the ball-pointing device 160. Before the ball-pointing state, the rubber balls are concentrated in the second ball storage chamber 120, and the valves are all in a closed state. When penalty kick is needed, the penalty kick valve 170 is opened, and the serving valve 150 is opened to the preset position, so that the device enters the penalty kick state. When the serving valve 150 is in the preset position, the water in the water inlet pipe 190 in the device flows into the second ball storage chamber 120 because the pressure of the water inlet pipe 190 is higher than that of the water outlet pipe 180, and the rubber ball in the second ball storage chamber 120 flows to the first ball storage chamber 110 through the penalty kick bypass. When the rubber ball passes through the penalty kick device 160 on the penalty kick bypass, the non-contact penalty kick device 160 counts the number of rubber balls to realize real-time penalty kick. After all the rubber balls enter the first ball storage chamber 110, the penalty kick valve 170 and the serving valve 150 are closed. At this time, the rubber balls are concentrated in the first ball storage chamber 110, and the device is in the penalty kick end state. When cyclic penalty kick is needed, the main valve 140 is opened to allow the rubber balls to enter the second ball storage chamber 120 from the first ball storage chamber 110 to prepare for the next penalty kick.

[0074] Figure 7The schematic diagram of the structure of the integrated rubber ball cleaning device using the water intake valve to control the water flow of the ball bypass is shown. In this embodiment, the rubber ball cleaning device includes a first ball storage chamber 110 connected to the water outlet pipe 180; a second ball storage chamber 120; a third ball storage chamber 130 connected to the water inlet pipe 190, which is not shown in the figure and can be a chamber of various forms located between the ball serving valve and the water inlet pipe; a ball serving valve 150 located between the second ball storage chamber 120 and the third ball storage chamber 130; a main valve 140 located between the first ball storage chamber 110 and the second ball storage chamber 120, and when the main valve 140 is opened, the rubber ball is transferred from the first ball storage chamber 110 to the second ball storage chamber 120; and a ball serving valve 150 located between the second ball storage chamber 120 and the third ball storage chamber 130. The ball-pointing device 160 between the second ball storage chamber 120 and the second ball storage chamber 120 can count the number of rubber balls when the rubber balls pass through; the ball-pointing valve 170 is located between the ball-pointing device 160 and the second ball storage chamber 120, and when it is opened, the rubber balls are transferred from the second ball storage chamber 120 to the first ball storage chamber 110 via the ball-pointing device 160; the water-intake valve is located between the second ball storage chamber 120 and the water inlet pipe 190, and the connection between the second ball storage chamber 120 and the water inlet pipe 190 is controlled by the water-intake valve. When the water-intake valve is opened, water flow is introduced to drive the rubber balls to move in the ball-pointing bypass (the water-intake valve can also be installed between the second ball storage chamber 120 and the third ball storage chamber 130, which can achieve the same technical effect, but this structural solution is not shown in this figure). In the state before the ball-pointing, the rubber balls are concentrated in the second ball storage chamber 120, and the valves are all in a closed state. When penalty kick is needed, the penalty kick valve 170 and the water intake valve are opened to put the device into penalty kick state. The opening of the water intake valve allows the water in the device to flow into the second ball storage chamber 120, and the rubber balls in the second ball storage chamber 120 flow to the first ball storage chamber 110 through the penalty kick bypass. When the rubber balls pass through the penalty kick device 160 on the penalty kick bypass, the non-contact penalty kick device 160 counts the number of rubber balls in real time to realize penalty kick. After all the rubber balls enter the first ball storage chamber 110, the penalty kick valve 170 and the water intake valve are closed. At this time, the rubber balls are concentrated in the first ball storage chamber 110, and the device is in the penalty kick end state. When cyclic penalty kick is needed, the main valve 140 is opened to allow the rubber balls to enter the second ball storage chamber 120 from the first ball storage chamber 110 to prepare for the next penalty kick.

[0075] Figure 8The schematic diagram of the structure of the integrated rubber ball cleaning device using the drain valve to control the water flow of the point ball bypass is shown. In this embodiment, the rubber ball cleaning device includes a first ball storage chamber 110 connected to the outlet pipe 180; a second ball storage chamber 120; a third ball storage chamber 130 connected to the water inlet pipe 190, which is not shown in the figure and can be a chamber of various forms located between the ball valve and the water inlet pipe; a ball valve 150 located between the second ball storage chamber 120 and the third ball storage chamber 130; a main valve 140 located between the first ball storage chamber 110 and the second ball storage chamber 120, and the main valve When the door 140 is opened, the rubber balls are transferred from the first ball storage chamber 110 to the second ball storage chamber 120; the ball-pointing device 160 located between the first ball storage chamber 110 and the second ball storage chamber 120 can count the number of rubber balls when the rubber balls pass through; the ball-pointing valve 170 located between the ball-pointing device 160 and the second ball storage chamber 120, when opened, allows the rubber balls to be transferred from the first ball storage chamber 110 to the second ball storage chamber 120 via the ball-pointing device 160; the drainage valve is located between the second ball storage chamber 120 and the drainage ditch, and when the drainage valve is opened, a water flow is introduced to drive the rubber balls to move in the ball-pointing bypass. In the state before the ball-pointing, the rubber balls are concentrated in the first ball storage chamber 110, and the valves are all in a closed state. When a penalty kick is needed, the penalty kick valve 170 and the drain valve are opened to put the device into the penalty kick state. The opening of the drain valve allows the water in the device to enter the first ball storage chamber 110 from the water outlet pipe 180, and carry the rubber ball in the first ball storage chamber 110 to the second ball storage chamber 120 through the penalty kick bypass. When the rubber ball passes through the penalty kick device 160 on the penalty kick bypass, the non-contact penalty kick device 160 counts the number of rubber balls in real time to realize the penalty kick. After all the rubber balls enter the second ball storage chamber 120, the penalty kick valve 170 and the drain valve are closed, and the penalty kick ends. At this time, the rubber ball is intercepted by the filter screen of the second ball storage chamber 120 and enters the preparation state before serving, so that the synchronous penalty kick before serving can be realized, and the operation efficiency of the equipment is improved.

In the state before the ball-pointing, the rubber balls are concentrated in the first ball storage chamber 110, and the valves are all in the closed state. When a penalty kick is needed, the penalty kick valve 170 and the return valve are opened to put the device into the penalty kick state. The opening of the return valve allows the water in the device to enter the first ball storage chamber 110 from the water outlet pipe 180, and carry the rubber ball in the first ball storage chamber 110 to the second ball storage chamber 120 through the penalty kick bypass. When the rubber ball passes through the penalty kick device 160 on the penalty kick bypass, the non-contact penalty kick device 160 counts the number of rubber balls in real time to achieve the penalty kick. After all the rubber balls enter the second ball storage chamber 120, the penalty kick valve 170 and the return valve are closed, and the penalty kick ends.

When penalty kick is needed, the penalty kick valve 260 is opened, and the control valve that controls the water flow through the penalty kick bypass is opened, so that the rubber ball in the second ball storage chamber 220 is transferred into the first ball storage chamber 210 through the penalty kick bypass channel along with the water flow. When the rubber ball passes through the penalty kick device 250 in the penalty kick bypass, the non-contact penalty kick device 250 records the number of rubber balls to complete real-time penalty kick.

[0081] Fig.11A cross-sectional view of a pipeline-type rubber ball cleaning device with a penalty ball bypass in a state before penalty ball is applied is shown. In this state, the rubber balls are concentrated in the second ball storage chamber 220 and the curved pipe 22041 connected to the second ball storage chamber 220 waiting for penalty ball application. The main valve 230, the return valve 240, and the penalty ball valve 260 are all closed, and other valves and pumps that may exist for controlling the flow of water through the penalty ball bypass are also not opened. The first ball storage chamber 210 is not connected to the second ball storage chamber 220, and the penalty ball system does not work.

Fig.12 Combination Fig.16 You can also see Fig.12 A drain valve (not shown in the figure) is installed on the device shown to realize the circulation of the penalty channel. In the technical solution of forming water flow through the drain valve, the drain valve is installed between the first ball storage chamber 210 and the drain ditch. The opening of the drain valve can form a water flow that drives the rubber ball to move in the bypass penalty channel. When penalty is needed, the main valve 230 and the return valve 240 are closed, and the penalty valve 260 and the drain valve are opened. At this time, the device enters the penalty state, and the water flows from the water inlet pipe into the second ball storage chamber 220, and flows into the first ball storage chamber 210 through the bypass penalty channel. When the rubber balls in the second ball storage chamber 220 and the curved pipe 22041 pass through the penalty bypass with the water flow, the non-contact penalty device 250 counts the number of rubber balls to realize real-time penalty.

[0084] Fig.13The cross-sectional view of the pipeline type rubber ball cleaning device with a penalty ball bypass at the penalty ball end state is shown. In this state, the rubber balls have all flowed from the second ball storage chamber 220 into the first ball storage chamber 210 through the penalty ball state. At this time, the main valve 230 is kept closed, the penalty ball valve 260 and the return valve 240 are closed, and other valves controlling the penalty ball bypass water flow are closed, such as Fig.16 The drain valve in the middle is closed, and all the rubber balls are concentrated in the first ball storage chamber 210, and the device is in the penalty kick end state.

[0085] Fig.14 The cross-sectional view of the pipeline-type rubber ball cleaning device with penalty kick bypass in the penalty kick preparation state is shown. After the penalty kick is completed, the rubber balls are concentrated in the first ball storage chamber 210. When it is necessary to serve or repeat the penalty kick, the main valve 230 is opened to allow the rubber balls to enter the second ball storage chamber 220 from the first ball storage chamber 210 to prepare for serving or the next penalty kick. At this time, the device is in the penalty kick preparation state. After all the rubber balls enter the second ball storage chamber 220, the main valve 230 is closed to allow the device to re-enter the second ball storage chamber 220. Fig.11 The state before the penalty kick is shown, thus realizing the penalty kick cycle.

[0086] The following is a schematic diagram of the basic structure and working principle of each embodiment of the pipeline type rubber ball cleaning device. The specific structure can be referred to in the previous Figures 10 to 14 The structural variations shown indicate that these embodiments all fall within the scope of protection of this patent.

[0087] Fig.15The schematic diagram of the structure of the pipeline type rubber ball cleaning device using the return valve to control the bypass water flow of the ball is shown. In this embodiment, the rubber ball cleaning device includes a first ball storage chamber 210 connected to the outlet pipe; a second ball storage chamber 220 connected to the inlet pipe, and a return valve 240 located between the first ball storage chamber 210 and the outlet pipe; a main valve 230 located between the first ball storage chamber 210 and the second ball storage chamber 220, and when the main valve 230 is opened, the rubber balls are transferred from the first ball storage chamber 210 to the second ball storage chamber 220; a ball-pointing device 250 located between the first ball storage chamber 210 and the second ball storage chamber 220 in a bypass manner, and the number of rubber balls can be counted when the rubber balls pass through; a ball-pointing valve 260 located between the ball-pointing device 250 and the ball storage chamber, and when opened, the rubber balls are transferred from the second ball storage chamber 220 to the first ball storage chamber 210 via the ball-pointing device 250; in the state before the ball-pointing, the rubber balls are concentrated in the second ball storage chamber 220, and the valves are all in a closed state. When a penalty is needed, the penalty valve 260 and the return valve 240 are opened to put the device into the penalty state. The opening of the return valve 240 allows water to flow from the water inlet pipe into the second ball storage chamber 220 under the pressure difference between the water inlet pipe and the water outlet pipe, and carries the rubber ball in the second ball storage chamber 220 to the first ball storage chamber 210 through the penalty bypass. When the rubber ball passes through the penalty device 250 on the penalty bypass, the non-contact penalty device 250 counts the number of rubber balls to achieve penalty. After all the rubber balls enter the first ball storage chamber 210, the penalty valve 260 and the return valve 240 are closed, and the penalty ends. At this time, the rubber balls are intercepted by the main valve 230 and concentrated in the first ball storage chamber 210. The device is in the penalty end state. If another penalty is needed, the main valve 230 is opened to allow the rubber balls to fall into the second ball storage chamber 220 to prepare for the next penalty.

[0088] Fig.16The schematic diagram of the structure of the pipeline type rubber ball cleaning device using the drain valve to control the water flow of the ball bypass is shown. In this embodiment, the rubber ball cleaning device includes a first ball storage chamber 210 connected to the outlet pipe; a second ball storage chamber 220 connected to the inlet pipe, and a return valve 240 located between the first ball storage chamber 210 and the outlet pipe; a main valve 230 located between the first ball storage chamber 210 and the second ball storage chamber 220, and when the main valve 230 is opened, the rubber balls are transferred from the first ball storage chamber 210 to the second ball storage chamber 220; a ball-pointing device 250 located between the first ball storage chamber 210 and the second ball storage chamber 220, and the number of rubber balls can be counted when the rubber balls pass through; a ball-pointing valve 260 located between the ball-pointing device 250 and the ball storage chamber, and when opened, the rubber balls are transferred from the second ball storage chamber 220 to the first ball storage chamber 210 via the ball-pointing device 250; a drain valve located between the first ball storage chamber 210 and the drain ditch, and when the drain valve is opened, a water flow is formed to drive the rubber balls to move in the ball bypass. In the state before penalty kick, the rubber balls are concentrated in the second ball storage chamber 220, and the valves are all in the closed state. When penalty kick is needed, the penalty kick valve 260 and the drain valve are opened to put the device into the penalty kick state. The opening of the drain valve allows the water in the device to enter the second ball storage chamber 220 from the water inlet pipe, and carry the rubber balls in the second ball storage chamber 220 to flow to the first ball storage chamber 210 through the penalty kick bypass. When the rubber balls pass through the penalty kick device 250 on the penalty kick bypass, the non-contact penalty kick device 250 counts the number of rubber balls in real time to achieve penalty kick. After all the rubber balls enter the first ball storage chamber 210, the penalty kick valve 260 and the drain valve are closed, and the penalty kick is over. At this time, the rubber balls are intercepted by the main valve 230 and concentrated in the first ball storage chamber 210. If penalty kick is needed again, the main valve 230 is opened to let the rubber balls fall into the second ball storage chamber 220 to prepare for the next penalty kick.

[0089] exist Figures 10 to 14 In the illustrated embodiment, the first ball storage chamber 210 of the rubber ball cleaning device is connected to the water outlet pipe through the first pipe 2101 and the second pipe 2102, and the second ball storage chamber 220 is connected to the water inlet pipe through the third pipe 2203 and the fourth pipe 2204. Two pumps are used to control the water flow between the rubber ball cleaning device and the water outlet pipe and the water inlet pipe respectively. This rubber ball cleaning device is called a "four-pipe control". Figures 10 to 14As shown, the first ball storage chamber 210 is connected to the first tube 2101 and the second tube 2102, wherein the first tube 2101 is connected to the first pump 27070, and the first tube 2101 and the second tube 2102 are both connected to the water outlet pipe, and the first pump 27070 can pump water from the first ball storage chamber 210 to the water outlet pipe; the second ball storage chamber 220 is connected to the third tube 2203 and the fourth tube 2204, wherein the third tube 2203 is connected to the second pump 280, and the third tube 2203 and the fourth tube 2204 are both connected to the water inlet pipe, and the second pump 280 can supply water from the water inlet pipe to the second ball storage chamber 220; using the first pump 27070 and the second pump 280 to control the water flow respectively can avoid the water with different temperatures in the water outlet pipe and the water inlet pipe from mixing inside the rubber ball cleaning device to cause adverse consequences.

[0090] In other embodiments of the pipeline-type rubber ball cleaning device not shown, the first ball storage chamber 210 is connected to the outlet pipe through the second pipe 2102, and the second ball storage chamber 220 is connected to the inlet pipe through the fourth pipe 2204. The first pipe 2101 and the third pipe 2203 in the "four-pipe" structure are cancelled, and the first ball storage chamber 210 and the second ball storage chamber 220 are connected through a pump and a pipe. This rubber ball cleaning device is called "two-pipe". The two-pipe rubber ball cleaning device has only one pump, which is used to pump water from the first ball storage chamber 210 to the second ball storage chamber 220. When the pump is started, the water in the outlet pipe can enter the second ball storage chamber 220 through the first ball storage chamber 210 to realize the water circulation in the system. Compared with the "four-pipe" device, the "two-pipe" device reduces one pump and related pipes, making the overall structure more compact and reducing the cost. Although the specific forms of the "two-pipe" and "four-pipe" devices are slightly different, those skilled in the art can make adaptive changes under the guidance of this patent, and the resulting modified embodiments all belong to the scope of protection of this patent. For example, when the first pipe 2101 is eliminated, the water return valve 240 may be disposed between the first ball storage chamber 210 and the water outlet pipe.

[0091] Fig.17 The schematic diagram of the structure of the optical fiber penalty device on the penalty bypass of a specific embodiment of the present invention is shown. The optical fiber penalty device 3 includes an optical fiber transmitting end 31 and an optical fiber receiving end 32, which are oppositely mounted at the two ends of a fixing frame 33. The fixing frame 33 is mounted on a penalty tube 34. The penalty tube 34 is preferably made of a transparent material, such as a PVC tube, a glass tube, etc., which can allow light to pass through. The optical fiber transmitting end 31 can transmit an optical signal. The type of the optical signal is not limited, and can be visible light, invisible infrared light, or laser, etc. The optical signal passes through the penalty tube and is received by the optical fiber receiving end 32 on the opposite side. When the rubber ball passes between the optical fiber transmitting end 31 and the optical fiber receiving end 32, the optical signal is blocked from being transmitted to the optical fiber receiving end 32, thereby realizing the rubber ball counting.

[0092] This embodiment only shows a case where a through-beam optical fiber sensor is used as a point-in-the-ball device. The present invention can also use various other types of non-contact point-in-the-ball devices. For example, the point-in-the-ball device using optical fiber technology can also be a reflective optical fiber sensor, in which the optical fiber transmitting end and the optical fiber receiving end are integrated into one, and the installation method is still the same as Fig.17 As shown, only one side has a sensor. When the rubber ball passes by, the light is reflected back into the sensor, thereby realizing the counting of the rubber ball. In addition to using sensors based on optical technology, other types of sensors can also be used. For example, high-speed camera visual recognition technology can be used to record the rubber balls passing by using visual counting methods; ultrasonic sensors can also be used to count the rubber balls by abnormal echoes when they pass by; steel balls or radio frequency chips can also be implanted in the rubber balls, and magnetic flux sensors, radio frequency chip readers and writers can be used to detect and count. Without departing from the concept of the present invention, various modifications and changes can be made to the above-mentioned point ball device without exceeding the protection scope of the present invention, which is determined by the attached claims.

[0093] In some embodiments not shown, the condenser has the aforementioned colloid ball cleaning device.
