Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to a circulation system or a water supply system, in particular to a circulation water system or a water supply system with constant pressure water replenishment and medicine adding functions and application thereof. Background Art

[0002] Constant pressure water replenishment equipment and dosing equipment are two indispensable equipment in the circulation system and water supply system. With the acceleration of urbanization, the improvement of environmental protection awareness, and the demand of enterprises for improving system operation efficiency, the demand for these two types of equipment in the market is becoming more and more vigorous, reflecting their wide adaptability and broad market demand.

[0003] In modern circulating water systems, constant pressure water replenishment equipment is widely used in residential, commercial and industrial fields to ensure the stability of water pressure and guarantee the stable and efficient operation of users' water systems. Its core function is to automatically adjust the operation of the water pump, maintain the pressure in the system, and avoid downtime and inefficiency caused by water pressure fluctuations. At the same time, the constant pressure water replenishment equipment is exquisitely designed and can adapt to water systems of different sizes and natures, making it occupy a place in the market.

[0004] like Figure 1 As shown in the figure, it is a structural diagram of the constant pressure water replenishment equipment in the existing circulating water system. Its operating principle is: when the constant pressure water replenishment equipment is connected to the circulating water system, the circulating water system will detect the pressure of the circulating water in the system according to the pressure probe. For example: when the pressure probe detects that the circulating water system is underpressure, the pressure replenishment mode will be started. At this time, the constant pressure pump will start to pump water from the VG tank and pump it into the circulating water system to maintain the system pressure. When the pressure probe detects that the pressure of the circulating water system is too high, the pressure relief mode will be started. At this time, the pressure relief valve will start to pump the circulating water system into the VG tank to maintain the system pressure. It should be noted that no matter which mode, water will pass through the VG tank. The VG tank is a water storage tank with a weighing sensor at its foot to detect the weight of the water content. Whether it is water replenishment or high-level water discharge, whether it is pressure replenishment or pressure relief, the system can record the water volume changes generated by each action.

[0005] Dosing equipment is mainly used for water prevention, treatment and removal of pollutants, and is widely used in circulation systems, water plants, sewage treatment plants, industrial water treatment and other fields. Its main function is to automatically add chemical agents to ensure that water quality meets standards and protect system pipelines and equipment components on the pipelines. The further strengthening of environmental protection awareness has promoted the market demand for water-saving, efficient and accurate dosing solutions.

[0006] like Figure 2As shown in the figure, it is a structural diagram of the dosing equipment in the existing circulating water system. Its operating principle is: when the dosing equipment is connected to the circulating water system, the drainage port will maintain a relatively small opening, so that the water in the circulating water system will slowly flow out. The two dosing pumps set parameters according to their respective dosing frequencies, usually starting at a fixed time. The dosing pump is a diaphragm pump, and its characteristic is that its dosing flow rate is a constant under a certain pressure. Therefore, as long as the pressure of the circulating water system is determined, the dosing time and stop time of the dosing pump can be set according to the water quality requirements of the system. But there will be a problem here. When the outflow of the drainage port is greater than the dosing amount of the dosing pump, the circulating water system will gradually lose pressure, resulting in the constant pressure water replenishment equipment to continuously replenish water. On the contrary, if the outflow of the drainage port is less than the dosing amount of the dosing pump, the circulating water system will gradually overpressure, and the constant pressure water replenishment equipment will often leak water. In either case, it is a waste of water resources, which will cause unnecessary troubles to the operation and maintenance team and increase the operation and maintenance costs. In addition, the drain valve of the automatic dosing device is controlled by the conductivity probe. When the conductivity is greater than the set value, the drain valve will be opened. The drain valve is generally a switch value, which will be closed after being opened for a certain period of time. This will cause a sharp fluctuation in the pressure of the water system, which is not conducive to the operation of the water system. Monitor the conductivity of the circulating water. When the conductivity rises to a certain level due to impurity accumulation, the drain valve will automatically open to discharge part of the circulating water, and fresh water will be added at the same time to ensure water quality and prevent scaling, corrosion and other problems.

[0007] Figure 3 This is a structural diagram of an existing circulating water system with constant pressure water replenishment equipment and dosing equipment. As shown in the figure: Although constant pressure water replenishment equipment and dosing equipment serve the optimization and stability of the circulating water system in the market, there is actually no intersection between the two. The usual dosing device is equipped with a drainage pipe to slowly discharge the water in the system for a long time, and at the same time, it adds drugs to the system for a long time. Such a configuration not only wastes water resources, but also wastes drug resources. It is an extensive design. The fundamental reason is that the dosing equipment manufacturer does not know when the system needs to add drugs. Although the equipment is equipped with many probes to detect water quality, these probes cannot accurately reflect the current water quality during actual use. Finally, the dosing equipment can only choose the uneconomical and unscientific operation strategy of draining water while adding drugs. It is this point that gives the constant pressure water replenishment equipment manufacturer the opportunity to integrate the two. Summary of the invention

[0008] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a circulating water system or water supply system and application with constant pressure water replenishment and drug dosing functions, which mainly solves the problems existing in the above-mentioned prior art.
