Abstract
Description
Technical Field

Background Art
[0004] During the operation of pipelines, the surrounding environment is complex, and problems such as material failure, pipe body corrosion, external force damage, and aging exist, leading to pipeline leakage. Through research at home and abroad, it is found that foreign research focuses on improving the strength and durability of water supply pipelines, optimizing structural design, developing advanced detection technologies, and exploring new maintenance and repair methods.
[0005] Domestic research on water supply pipelines mainly focuses on aspects such as pipeline materials, construction, and maintenance, while relatively less research has been conducted on the problem of easy bursting at bends. The invention patent with the application number CN202110592651.4 discloses a fire hydrant valve plug, a fire protection system, and its monitoring method, including a valve plate and a water pressure detection sensor. A cavity for accommodating the water pressure detection sensor is provided inside the valve plate. The water pressure detection sensor includes a strain gauge and a signal processing module. A wireless communicator and a battery are also arranged inside the valve plate. The center of one end of the valve plate is the sensitive area for water pressure detection, and the strain gauge is pasted on the inner wall of the sensitive area. The Wheatstone bridge formed by the signal processing module and the strain gauge is connected. When the water pressure changes, it will cause corresponding deformation in the sensitive area, and the resistance of the strain gauge also changes accordingly, causing the bridge to lose balance and output an electrical signal proportional to the water pressure, thereby realizing water pressure detection.
[0006] This type of technology can conveniently complete the real-time detection of the water pressure inside the fire hydrant. For the monitoring of the water supply status of fire hydrants and small-diameter water supply pipelines in urban water supply, firstly, it is necessary to ensure the normal working state of the water pressure detection device, and secondly, the abnormality of the water pressure detection device may indicate the abnormality of the pipeline pressure and even the occurrence of a burst pipe accident. And the pipeline elbow is the sensitive area of the water supply pipeline. Therefore, it is particularly feasible to focus on key monitoring at the elbow of the water supply pipeline.

These signals may be caused by pipe leakage or an impending pipe burst, and are used to monitor the health status of the pipe. The data analysis and processing module analyzes and processes the collected data, and judges whether there is a risk of pipe burst according to the change rules of pressure and resistance data. If abnormal signals within a specific leakage range appear, it can be judged that there is a hidden danger of pipe burst, which is convenient for timely treatment.

Specific implementation mode
[0018] To make the technical concept and advantages for realizing the invention purpose of the present invention clearer and more understandable, the technical solution of the present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the following embodiments are only used to explain and illustrate the preferred implementation modes of the present invention, and should not be regarded as and do not constitute a limitation to the scope of patent protection required by the present invention. Embodiment 1
[0019] Refer to Figure 1 , the present invention proposes a small - diameter water supply pipeline burst prevention and control and safety monitoring method, which includes: a, a prevention and control and burst pipe signal monitoring device, and the structure of the prevention and control and burst pipe signal monitoring device is as Figure 2 shown.
[0020] The resistance strain sensor 5 of the prevention and control and burst pipe signal monitoring device is arranged between the pipe body and the burst pipe prevention and control device 1. The burst pipe prevention and control device 1 is fixed by a fastening nut, and the strain type torque sensor 4 is connected to the screw through a fastening nut. Signal lines are respectively led out from the strain torque sensor 4 and the resistance strain gauge sensor 5 and connected to the data analysis and processing module. Whether the burst pipe prevention and control device 1 is loose can be detected through the corresponding torque sensor, and the in - pipe pressure data of the water supply pipeline 6 can be monitored through the corresponding resistance strain gauge type sensor 5. Figure 5 The figure shows the installation state of the prevention and control and burst pipe signal monitoring device in use. The prevention and control and burst pipe signal monitoring device is fixed at the elbow of the water supply pipeline through a device housing composed of two L - shaped galvanized steel plates. The prevention and control and burst pipe signal monitoring device includes a resistance strain gauge sensor, and the resistance strain gauge sensor is arranged between the device housing composed of L - shaped galvanized steel plates and the water supply pipeline in a matching manner. The output signal of the resistance strain gauge sensor is connected to the data analysis and processing module.
[0021] b. The data analysis and processing module. The data analysis and processing module receives the output signal of the resistance strain gauge sensor, judges whether there is a risk of pipe explosion according to the variation rules of pressure, flow rate, and resistance data, and can judge that there is a potential risk of pipe explosion if abnormal signals within a specific leakage range appear; as Figure 3 shown.
[0022] c. The control module. The control module is connected to the data analysis and processing module; when the data analysis and processing module judges that there is a risk of pipe explosion, it issues an alarm signal in time to prevent the further expansion of the pipe explosion accident.
[0023] The resistance strain gauge sensor installed on the water supply pipeline captures abnormal signals inside the pipe through resistance changes during the operation of the pipe network. These signals may be caused by pipeline leakage or an impending pipe explosion. The data analysis and processing module analyzes the pressure and leakage frequency signals to judge whether there is leakage or abnormal pressure, and is used to monitor the health status of the pipeline. The resistance strain gauge sensor is attached inside the reinforcement device and in contact with the pipeline, and locates the pipeline leakage frequency signal through parameters such as the size of the leak, the flow state of the pipeline, the pipeline diameter, and the internal pressure to determine the abnormal range of the internal condition of the pipeline.
[0024] As Figure 3 , the resistance strain sensor 5 is connected to the data analysis and processing module. The data acquisition module receives the pressure data and transmits it wirelessly to the data processing center. The pressure and leakage frequency signals are analyzed through the built-in algorithm, and it is judged whether there is leakage and abnormal pressure in the current pipeline. If abnormal data is monitored, the control module connected to the data analysis and processing module will trigger an alarm and locate the leakage position. If no abnormal data is monitored, the data will continue to be collected. Embodiment 2
[0025] The prevention and control and pipe explosion signal monitoring device of this embodiment includes a strain gauge type torque sensor. The difference from Embodiment 1 is that: further, the prevention and control and pipe explosion signal monitoring device includes a strain gauge type torque sensor. The strain gauge type torque sensor is installed on the fastening bolt of the device shell composed of two L-shaped galvanized steel plates. The output signal of the strain gauge type torque sensor is connected to the data analysis and processing module; when the elastic shaft of the strain gauge type torque sensor generates a small deformation under torque, it will generate a resistance change, and a voltage signal proportional to the torque is generated through measuring the electric bridge. The voltage signal is amplified by the signal amplifier and then connected to the data analysis and processing module. The data analysis and processing module judges whether the torque is abnormal according to the monitored output voltage signal of the strain gauge type torque sensor to monitor the aging and loosening conditions of the screws of the prevention and control and pipe explosion signal monitoring device and ensure the normal working state of the prevention and control and pipe explosion signal monitoring device. The foregoing description refers to Figure 1 、 Figure 4 .
[0026] See Figure 4 , the strain gauge type torque sensor 4 measures the bridge circuit through the slight deformation of the elastic shaft, transmits it to the data acquisition module through a signal amplifier, and then wirelessly transmits it to the data processing center. The corresponding algorithm language is used to judge whether the torque is abnormal, and the control module is connected to the alarm system. Embodiment 3
[0027] See Figure 2 , different from Embodiment 1 and Embodiment 2, the method for preventing and controlling pipe burst and safety monitoring of small-diameter water supply pipes in this embodiment is that the device for preventing and controlling pipe burst and monitoring burst signals is composed of two L-shaped galvanized steel plates to form a device housing. Reinforcing diagonal beams are respectively provided at both ends connecting the two L-shaped galvanized steel plates, which are adapted to the shapes at pipe elbows or tees. The two L-shaped steel plates are buckled together with bolts, and the two pieces are fitted together to wrap the pipe, so as to disperse the pressure at the pipe elbows and tees and distribute the pipe pressure to the device.
[0028] For the device for preventing and controlling pipe burst and monitoring burst signals, a closed-cell polyethylene foam board can be installed in the middle between the device housing and the outside of the water supply pipe to play a role in pipe insulation and prevent the pipe from freezing and cracking at low temperatures.
[0029] The resistance strain gauge sensor 5 is installed on the pipe body, monitors the resistance signal and transmits it to the control module to monitor the change of the pressure value inside the pipe (the state inside the pipe). When the pressure value is abnormal, a signal can be sent out for alarm in time to realize the safety monitoring of the pipe. The strain gauge type torque sensor 4 is installed on the fastening screw 2, measures the bridge circuit through the strain gauge, monitors the signal, judges whether the torque is abnormal, and detects the tightness of the screw, so as to facilitate the timely discovery of equipment failures and timely maintenance and replacement.
[0030] Compared with the prior art, the present invention monitors whether the device is loose and the real-time state inside the pipe through signal acquisition and data analysis, avoiding the problems of difficult positioning of leakage points and inconvenient large-area excavation when leakage occurs. It also makes the subsequent maintenance work of the pipe network more efficient, timely responds to pipe burst problems and minimizes the losses caused by leakage. The method is simple and easy to operate, and is efficient and easy to implement.
