Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.
[0027] like Figure 1~Figure 4 As shown, the utility model provides a green energy device for realizing automatic drainage of a water tank, comprising a water tank 4, wherein a water inlet 1 is provided on the left side of the top of the water tank 4 for the inflow of air-conditioning condensate water; a water outlet of the water tank 4 is sequentially provided with a solenoid valve 7, a second hydroelectric generator 8, and an irrigation system 16; the solenoid valve 7 is connected to the battery 3, and when the solenoid valve 7 is opened, the air-conditioning condensate water flows through the solenoid valve 7 into the second hydroelectric generator 8 for generating electricity, and the water after generating electricity flows into the irrigation system 16 for irrigating the green belt of the community; when the solenoid valve 7 is closed, the water tank 4 enters the water storage stage; the second hydroelectric generator 8 is also connected to the battery 3 so as to store the excess electricity generated in the battery 3.
[0028] In some embodiments, a first hydroelectric generator 2 is disposed above the water inlet 1 of the water tank 4 , and the first hydroelectric generator 2 is connected to the battery 3 for supplying power to the battery 3 ; the battery 3 is connected to the irrigation system 16 for supplying power to the irrigation system 16 .
[0029] In some embodiments, a low water level sensor 5 and a high water level sensor 6 are arranged vertically inside the water tank 4, wherein the low water level sensor 5 is connected to the solenoid valve 7 and the second hydroelectric generator 8, respectively. When the second hydroelectric generator 8 supplies power to the low water level sensor 5, the low water level sensor 5 controls the solenoid valve 7 to open when sensing the water level; the high water level sensor 6 is connected to the solenoid valve 7 and the battery 3, respectively. When the high water level sensor 6 senses the water level, the solenoid valve 7 is also controlled to open.
[0030] In some embodiments, the utility model further comprises a cover opening mechanism, specifically comprising a cover 9, a motor 13, etc., see Figure 3~Figure 4 ; The cover plate 9 is hinged at the top opening of the water tank 4, the motor 13 is connected to the battery 3 through a circuit, a rotating wheel 14 is fixed to the output end of the motor 13, and the rotating wheel 14 is connected to the cover plate 9 through a rope 15; specifically, one end of the rope 15 is wound around the circumference of the rotating wheel 14, and the other end of the rope 15 is fixed to the cover plate 9. When the motor 13 is started, it drives the rotating wheel 14 to rotate, and the rope 15 is gradually wound around the rotating wheel 14, thereby driving the cover plate 9 to open.
[0031] In some embodiments, the cover opening mechanism also includes an open cover position sensor 11 and a closed cover position sensor 12, wherein the open cover position sensor 11 is arranged on a placement rack 10, and the placement rack 10 is fixed to the top of the water tank 4. When the cover 9 is opened, the open cover position sensor 11 identifies the cover 9, and the open cover position sensor 11 transmits a signal that the cover 9 is in place; the open cover position sensor 11 is connected to the battery 3 and the motor 13 respectively, and when the motor 13 receives the open cover 9 signal transmitted by the open cover position sensor 11, the motor 13 stops working and the cover 9 remains open; the closed cover position sensor 12 is arranged at the top opening of the water tank 4, and when the cover 9 is completely closed, the closed cover position sensor 12 transmits a signal that the cover 9 is in place; the closed cover position sensor 12 is connected to the battery 3 and the motor 13 respectively, and when the motor 13 receives the closed cover 9 signal transmitted by the closed cover position sensor 12, the motor 13 stops working and the cover 9 remains closed.
[0032] In some embodiments, the motor 13 is connected to the low water level sensor 5 and the high water level sensor 6, respectively. When the water level reaches the high water level sensor 6, the motor 13 receives the electrical signal sent by the high water level sensor 6, and the motor 13 rotates forward, driving the cover 9 to open; when the water level reaches below the low water level sensor 5, that is, the low water level sensor 5 cannot sense the water level and no longer transmits a signal, the motor 13 rotates reversely, the rope 15 loosens, and the cover 9 closes under the action of gravity.
[0033] In some embodiments, in order to prevent debris such as leaves from falling into the water tank 4 when the cover plate 9 is opened, an isolation net may be provided at the opening of the water tank 4 .
[0034] In some embodiments, the battery 3 and the motor 13 can be fixed to the top or side of the water tank, or can be fixed by providing a bracket, a base or other device that can achieve the fixing function.
[0035] In some embodiments, when the motor 13 is installed on the side of the water tank 4, a fixed pulley is installed on the side of the water tank 4, and the rope 15 contacts the fixed pulley to prevent the rope 15 from contacting the edge of the water tank 4 to generate friction and cause wear of the rope 15.
[0036] In some embodiments, the cover opening position sensor 11 is a laser sensor. When the cover 9 is opened, the laser recognizes the cover 9 (such as Figure 4 The cover opening position sensor 11 sends a stop command to the motor 13. The cover closing position sensor 12 can be a laser sensor, because it is set at the opening of the water tank 4. When the laser of the cover closing position sensor 12 recognizes the cover 9, it can be determined that the cover 9 has been closed, and at this time, a stop command is issued to the motor 13; the cover closing position sensor 12 can also be a contact sensor. When the cover 9 is closed and contacts the cover closing position sensor 12, the cover closing position sensor 12 sends a stop command to the motor 13.
[0037] In addition, the circuit connection methods not mentioned in the present invention are all conventional connection methods known to those skilled in the art.
[0038] The working process of the utility model is:
[0039] Considering that the air conditioning condensate is mostly produced in summer, for residential areas, condensate may be produced all the time, but the water flow is not large. In order to achieve a large water flow, the utility model realizes the water storage function by setting a low water level sensor 5, a high water level sensor 6 and an electromagnetic valve 7. When the water level of the water tank 4 rises to the low water level sensor 5, since the low water level sensor 5 is not powered (the low water level sensor 5 relies on the second hydroelectric generator 8 for power), the electromagnetic valve 7 cannot be opened, so the water level continues to rise. When the water level rises to the high water level sensor 6, the high water level sensor 6 transmits a signal to the electromagnetic valve 7, the electromagnetic valve 7 opens, and the water in the water tank 4 flows to the irrigation system 16 through the electromagnetic valve 7 and the second hydroelectric generator 8. The second hydroelectric generator 8 provides power for the battery 3 and the low water level sensor 5; when the water level drops below the high water level sensor 6, because the low water level sensor 5 is powered and can sense water, the electromagnetic valve 7 remains open; when the water level drops below the low water level sensor 5, the electromagnetic valve 7 is closed.
[0040] In order to prevent debris from entering the device and blocking the channel, the water tank 4 is basically sealed as a whole except for the cover plate 9, which has a great impact on the water discharge of the water tank. Therefore, the utility model also provides a set of cover plate opening mechanism. When the water level reaches the high water level sensor 6, the motor 13 rotates forward to drive the cover plate 9 to open. After the cover plate 9 is opened to a certain position, the cover opening position sensor 11 recognizes the cover plate 9, and the cover opening position sensor 11 transmits a signal to the motor 13, the motor 13 stops running, and the cover plate 9 remains open. At this time, the water level in the water tank 4 is in contact with the outside air, and the atmospheric pressure is used to ensure that the water discharge of the water tank is not affected. When the water level drops below the low water level sensor 5, the motor 13 reverses, the cover plate 9 is closed, and the cover closing position sensor 12 transmits a signal to the motor 13, the motor 13 stops running, and the cover plate 9 remains closed.
[0041] A first hydroelectric generator 2 is installed at the bottom floor of the residential area to convert the gravitational potential energy of the condensed water at the upper floors into electrical energy and store it in a battery 3 to provide the electricity required for the subsequent operation of the green belt irrigation system 16 .
[0042] In addition, this device collects condensed water from residential areas and uses it for watering green belts in the areas. The condensed water can also rise to a certain temperature in the entire device, so that the water temperature is not too low and meets the water temperature requirement for watering the green belts.
[0043] Each embodiment in this specification is described in a related manner, and the same or similar parts between the embodiments can be referenced to each other, and each embodiment focuses on the differences from other embodiments.
[0044] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the protection scope of the present invention. Any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present invention are included in the protection scope of the present invention.
