Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of water supply in high-altitude and cold regions, and in particular to a water tank with snow melting function suitable for high-altitude and cold regions. Background Art

[0002] my country has a vast territory and diverse topography. High-altitude and cold regions, represented by the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, account for most of my country. Since these areas are mostly inland and have a dry climate, there are few large rivers flowing through them, and the economic and transportation aspects are relatively backward. The local residents' domestic water is mainly melted ice and snow. In the cold winter season, due to the low temperature and thick snow on the ground, it is more difficult to melt snow, and it is difficult to solve the problem of drinking water for residents on the snow-capped mountains. In this case, some people have proposed electric heating measures, such as patent CN219964114U and patent CN203531047U. This method is still feasible in areas with electricity or stable power supply, but it will undoubtedly consume a lot of electricity during use, and the economy is poor.

[0003] Through the analysis of the resource endowment of such areas, it is believed that by taking advantage of the abundant solar resources in high-altitude and cold areas, the use of material absorption technology, relying on the principle of solar radiation to heat the metal wall and thus melt the internal snow, can provide a more reliable solution for the living water in such areas. Utility Model Content

The existing snow melting technology lacks reliability or applicability and is unable to provide stable domestic hot water in areas with weak infrastructure and harsh environment.

[0009] A drainage component is connected to the outer wall of the box body and communicated with the water passage cavity.

[0010] The water tank with snow-melting function suitable for high-altitude cold areas provided in the present application can absorb solar radiation and convert it into thermal energy through the heat-absorbing layer on the tank body, and prevent the heat inside the tank body from dissipating too quickly through the setting of the thermal insulation layer, so that the inside of the tank body has a relatively high temperature, and the ice and snow inside the tank body can melt relatively quickly. The melted water is filtered by the filter component and then discharged from the tank through the drainage component to be used as domestic water for residents.

[0011] The water tank with snow melting function suitable for high-altitude cold areas provided in this application does not need to rely on electric energy to melt ice and snow, the implementation cost is relatively low, and electric power resources can be saved; the overall structure is relatively simple and easy to maintain.

[0035] In order to make the objectives, technical solutions and advantages of the present application more clearly understood, the present application is further described in detail below in conjunction with examples and drawings. The illustrative implementation scheme of the present application and its description are only used to explain the present application and are not intended to limit the present application.

[0036] like Figure 1-Figure 3 As shown, an embodiment of the present application provides a water tank with a snow-melting function suitable for high-altitude cold areas. The water tank with a snow-melting function suitable for high-altitude cold areas includes a tank body 1, a filter assembly and a drainage assembly.

[0037] The box body 1 as a whole can be constructed as a cube. The box body 1 can be made of stainless steel to prevent rust and has a good heat conduction effect. The box body 1 has an ice and snow inlet, a first working outer wall and a second working outer wall, wherein the first working outer wall is provided with a heat absorption layer, and the second working outer wall is provided with a thermal insulation layer 5; in the working state, the ice and snow inlet is located at the top of the box body 1 so that the ice and snow can easily enter the inside of the box body 1, the first working outer wall serves as the sun-facing side to absorb solar radiation to increase the temperature of the heat absorption layer thereon, and the second working outer wall serves as the shady side. The thermal insulation layer 5 on the shady side can slow down the heat exchange between the box wall of the box body 1 and the external environment, thereby preventing the rapid dissipation of heat from the box body 1, and thus allowing the ice and snow in the box body 1 to be effectively melted.

[0038] The filter assembly is arranged in the box body 1 and divides the internal space of the box body 1 into an ice and snow holding chamber and a water passage chamber. The ice and snow inlet is connected to the ice and snow holding chamber, so that ice and snow can enter the ice and snow holding chamber through the ice and snow inlet for temporary storage. In the working state, the ice and snow holding chamber and the water passage chamber are arranged in sequence from top to bottom. The ice and snow holding chamber and the water passage chamber are isolated by the filter assembly, so that the ice and snow in the ice and snow holding chamber are melted and filtered through the filter assembly before entering the water passage chamber, thereby preventing large impurities from accumulating in the water passage chamber.

[0039] The drainage component is connected to the outer wall of the box body 1 and communicated with the water passage chamber. By operating the drainage component, the water passage chamber can be communicated with the outside of the box body 1 through the drainage component, thereby realizing the discharge of water in the water passage chamber, and then supplying domestic water for residents. In actual implementation, the drainage component may include a water outlet pipe 2 and a first shut-off valve 3. The water outlet pipe 2 is connected to the box wall of the box body 1 and communicated with the water passage chamber. In the working state, the axis of the water outlet pipe 2 forms an angle with the vertical direction so that the water in the water passage chamber can easily flow out through the water outlet pipe 2. The first shut-off valve 3 cooperates with the water outlet pipe 2 to control the on-off of the water outlet pipe 2; by operating the first shut-off valve 3, the water passage chamber can be communicated with the external space through the water outlet pipe 2, thereby realizing the discharge of water in the water passage chamber.

[0040] The water tank with snow-melting function suitable for high-altitude areas provided in the present application can absorb solar radiation and convert it into thermal energy through the heat-absorbing layer arranged on the box body 1, and prevent the heat inside the box body 1 from dissipating too quickly through the arrangement of the thermal insulation layer 5, so that the inside of the box body 1 has a relatively high temperature, and then the ice and snow inside the box body 1 can melt relatively quickly. The melted water is filtered by the filter component and then discharged from the box body 1 through the drainage component to be used as domestic water for residents.

[0041] The water tank with snow-melting function suitable for high-altitude cold areas provided in this application does not need to rely on electric energy to melt ice and snow. It can work as long as the environment has solar radiation. There is no need to lay cables, protect electrical appliances from freezing, etc. The implementation cost is relatively low and it can save electric power resources. The overall structure is relatively simple and easy to maintain.

[0042] In some optional embodiments, the heat absorption layer may be configured as a heat absorption material layer formed by electroplating.

[0043] In the embodiment of the present application, the heat-absorbing material layer formed by electroplating has a large surface roughness and surface area, and has a better ability to absorb solar radiation. The heat-absorbing material layer formed by electroplating has a good metal crystal structure and good thermal conductivity, and can have a good heat exchange efficiency with the box wall of the box body 1, thereby enabling the temperature inside the box body 1 to rise rapidly and improve the snow melting efficiency.

[0044] In some optional embodiments, the heat absorbing material layer is configured as a thermal infrared radiation material layer.

[0045] In the embodiment of the present application, it is possible to effectively absorb thermal energy from solar radiation and convert it into infrared radiation, so that more heat can be released in the form of radiation to reduce heat loss; in actual implementation, the thermal infrared radiation material layer can be configured as a metal oxide thin film layer such as indium tin oxide (ITO), aluminum oxide (Al2O3), zirconium oxide (ZrO2), etc.

[0046] In some optional embodiments, the drainage component is configured with an electric heating component; in actual implementation, the electric heating component can be configured as a resistance wire, and the resistance wire is arranged on the water outlet pipe 2 by winding, wherein the water outlet pipe 2 can be configured as a stainless steel pipe.

[0047] In an embodiment of the present application, after an electric heating component is configured in the drain component, the electric heating component can heat the drain component, thereby preventing residual water in the drain component from freezing and blocking the drain component; wherein the electric heating component can be configured with a mobile power supply for easy replacement and maintenance.

[0048] In some optional embodiments, the thermal insulation layer 5 may include a thermal insulation shell and a thermal insulation material body; the thermal insulation shell is bonded to the second working outer wall for easy replacement and maintenance, and a thermal insulation cavity is formed between the thermal insulation shell and the second working outer wall; the thermal insulation material body is filled in the thermal insulation cavity. In actual implementation, the thermal insulation material body may be configured as a rubber-plastic sponge body or a polyurethane foam body.

[0049] In some optional embodiments, the water tank with snow melting function suitable for high-altitude areas may also include a bracket 8, which is located inside the box body 1 and connected to the inner wall of the box body 1; in actual implementation, the bracket 8 can be configured as a frame structure with an overall cubic shape, and welding can be used between the bracket 8 and the inner wall of the box body 1.

[0050] In the embodiment of the present application, the bracket 8 can provide support force to the box body 1, and can enhance the overall structural strength of the box body 1, so that the box wall of the box body 1 can be set to be thinner, so that the energy radiated by the heat absorption layer can be more easily conducted to the inside of the box body 1, so that the inside of the water tank has a better snow melting efficiency.

[0051] In some optional embodiments, the filter assembly may include a filter screen 7 and a support member 6; the overall shape of the filter screen 7 may be configured as a rectangle that matches the internal cross-section of the box body 1, and the filter screen 7 is connected to the inner wall of the box body 1; the support member 6 is connected to the inner wall of the box body 1 and cooperates with the filter screen 7, and in the working state, the support member 6 provides support for the filter screen 7 and the ice and snow on the filter screen 7. Therefore, when there is too much ice and snow in the ice and snow holding chamber, the support member 6 can provide stable support without causing a large deformation of the filter screen 7, thereby preventing ice and snow from occupying the space of the water chamber. In actual implementation, the support member 6 can be configured as an H-shaped steel that is relatively easy to obtain, the upper wing plate of the H-shaped steel contacts the filter screen 7, the H-shaped steel can be connected to the inner wall of the box body 1 through its two ends in the length direction, and a gap is left between the lower wing plate of the H-shaped steel and the bottom of the box body 1.

[0052] In some optional embodiments, the connection height between one end of the filter screen 7 and the box body 1 is higher than the connection height between the other end of the filter screen 7 and the box body 1 , and one end of the filter screen 7 and the drainage assembly are located on the same side of the box body 1 .

[0053] In the embodiment of the present application, the number of support members 6 can be configured as multiple and arranged in parallel at intervals, but considering the cost and space occupancy issues, the support members 6 will not be arranged densely, so that the filter screen 7 between adjacent support members 6 will actually be compressed by ice and snow to produce a small degree of deformation, and a larger space is required at the drainage component to allow the water in the water chamber to easily flow out of the drainage component. By setting one end of the filter screen 7 to be higher than the other end, the drainage component has a larger space, which can ensure that the water in the water chamber has a larger flow cross-section when flowing into the outlet pipe 2.

[0054] In some optional embodiments, the water tank with snow melting function suitable for high-cold areas may also include a water discharge component, which is connected to the bottom of the box body 1 and communicates with the water passage cavity. In actual implementation, the water discharge component may include a water discharge pipe 9 and a second shut-off valve 10, the axis of the water discharge pipe 9 is perpendicular to the bottom of the box body 1, and the second shut-off valve 10 cooperates with the water discharge pipe 9 to control the on-off of the water discharge pipe 9.

[0055] In the embodiment of the present application, through the provision of a water drain component, the residual water in the water passage chamber can be discharged to prevent the water in the water passage chamber from freezing at night when the temperature is relatively low; and the probability of residual water appearing in the drainage component can be reduced to prevent the residual water in the water outlet pipe 2 from freezing and causing the water outlet pipe 2 to be blocked; at the same time, when cleaning the inside of the box body 1, the sewage generated by cleaning can be discharged to the outside of the box body 1 through the water drain component.
