Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of V-type filter tanks, and in particular to a device and method for quickly discovering material leakage in a V-type filter tank. Background Art
[0002] The V-type filter is a water treatment structure in a water plant. It is a fast filter that filters at a constant water level and uses homogeneous filter media. It is a technology introduced by my country from the French Degremont Company in the late 1980s. The V-type filter has varying degrees of sand leakage during backwashing, which is a common problem in water plants and a problem that has long plagued the industry.
[0003] The main reasons for material leakage during backwashing in V-type filters include excessive backwashing intensity, uneven backwashing, and uneven backwashing drainage. Excessive backwashing intensity will cause the filter media to be subjected to excessive impact force, causing it to fall off the filter bed, resulting in material leakage; uneven backwashing can cause filter media to be lost in some areas; poor drainage of the backwash drainage system will cause some filter media to be carried away by the water flow, resulting in material leakage. Therefore, timely detection of material leakage can allow early response measures to avoid further loss of filter media. Summary of the invention

Through the synergistic effect of the water collecting part, the drainage main pipe 2, the drainage branch pipe 3, the gravity switch 4 and the material running observation box 5, the material running situation can be discovered in time during the backwashing process of the V-type filter tank. When material leakage occurs, the mixed water with filter media can pass through the water collecting part, the main drainage pipe 2, the drainage branch pipe 3 and the gravity switch 4 in sequence, and finally flow into the material leakage observation box 5, so that the staff can quickly judge the occurrence of material leakage.
[0027] In a preferred solution of this embodiment, the water collecting part is a water collecting bucket 1. Using the water collecting bucket 1 as the water collecting part can effectively collect the mixed water in the V-type filter backwash drainage channel 6, improve the collection efficiency, and ensure that the leakage of materials can be discovered in time.
[0028] In a preferred solution of the present embodiment, the drainage main pipe 2 includes a vertical main pipe and a transverse main pipe, the top of the vertical main pipe is connected and communicated with the bottom of the water collecting bucket 1, one end of the transverse main pipe is connected and communicated with the bottom of the vertical main pipe, and the other end is communicated with the drainage device 7, the transverse main pipe is arranged horizontally, and the drainage branch pipe 3 is communicated with the bottom of the transverse main pipe. The drainage main pipe 2 is divided into a vertical main pipe and a transverse main pipe, which can better adapt to different installation positions and drainage requirements. The vertical main pipe is easy to connect with the water collecting bucket 1, the transverse main pipe can be stably connected with the drainage device 7, and at the same time, it provides convenience for the connection of the drainage branch pipe 3, and the horizontal arrangement of the transverse main pipe can prevent the filter material from being deposited in other places.
[0029] In a preferred solution of this embodiment, the transverse main pipe is provided with a semicircular hole, which is located in the lower semicircle of the transverse main pipe, and the top of the drainage branch pipe 3 is connected to the semicircular hole. The provision of the semicircular hole makes the connection between the drainage branch pipe 3 and the transverse main pipe smoother, and the filter material in the mixed water can be more naturally deposited into the drainage branch pipe 3. At the same time, the semicircular hole is located in the lower semicircle of the transverse main pipe, which is conducive to the deposition of the filter material into the drainage branch pipe 3 under the action of gravity.

When the filter material deposition weight reaches the design weight, the reset spring is compressed, and the movable valve core slides downward to make the housing connect the first branch pipe with the second branch pipe; when the filter material flows out, the restoring force of the reset spring resets the movable valve core, disconnecting the first branch pipe and the second branch pipe. This structural design of the gravity switch 4 can automatically control the on-off of the drainage branch pipe 3 according to the deposition weight of the filter material. When the filter material is deposited to a certain weight, the gravity switch 4 is turned on, and the mixed water flows into the material running observation box 5, so as to realize the rapid discovery of the material running situation; when the filter material flows out, the gravity switch 4 is automatically closed to avoid unnecessary drainage.
[0032] In a preferred solution of the present embodiment, a rubber seal is arranged around the movable valve core. The rubber seal arranged around the movable valve core can improve the sealing performance of the gravity switch 4, prevent leakage of mixed water, and ensure the normal operation of the gravity switch 4.

[0037] Install the water collecting bucket 1: Fix the water collecting bucket 1 at the front end of the main pipe 2 for collecting backwash drainage, ensuring that the position is accurate so as to effectively collect the backwash drainage.

[0041] 2. Operation Phase
[0042] During the backwashing process, pay close attention to the material leakage observation box 5.
[0043] When the V-type filter tank is backwashed, the backwash water carries the possible filter material (quartz sand) along the drainage channel and flows into the water collecting bucket 1.
[0044] Then, the sand-water mixture enters the drainage main 2 through the water collecting bucket 1.
[0045] Since the specific gravity of quartz sand is greater than that of water, quartz sand will continuously settle on the gravity switch 4 during the flow process.
[0046] Determine the material leakage situation.
[0047] When the weight of the quartz sand deposits reaches the upper pressure limit of the gravity switch 4, the gravity switch 4 pops open.
[0048] At this time, the quartz sand flows into the material leakage observation box 5 through the drainage branch pipe 3.
[0049] The staff can quickly determine whether material leakage occurs by observing whether a sand-water mixture appears in the material leakage observation box 5 .
[0050] 3. Response measures phase
[0051] If material leakage is found, take the following measures in time:
[0052] Adjust the backwash intensity: Reduce the backwash intensity to reduce the impact on the filter media and avoid further loss of filter media.
[0053] Find equipment and facility faults: Check whether the backwashing is uneven or the backwashing drainage is uneven, and repair the faults in time.
[0054] Change the operation mode: According to the actual situation, adjust the operation mode of the V-type filter to curb the further loss of filter media. Through the above usage method, the patent can be effectively used to quickly discover the loss of filter media in the V-type filter, and take corresponding measures in time to reduce the loss of filter media and improve the operation efficiency and stability of the V-type filter.

At the same time, for those skilled in the art, according to the ideas of the present invention, there will be changes in the specific implementation methods and application scope. In summary, the content of this specification should not be understood as limiting the present invention.
