DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0014] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods.
[0015] A campus bathing water and electricity saving system, combined with Figure 1As shown, it includes a PLC controller, an electric water heater 1 and a wash basin 18 arranged in the dormitory bathroom, wherein the electric water heater 1 is connected to a first hot and cold water mixing faucet 6 through a hot water pipe 4 and a cold water pipe 5, and the water outlet of the first hot and cold water mixing faucet 6 is connected to a shower head 10 through a warm water pipe 7; a second hot and cold water mixing faucet 17 is arranged on the wash basin 18, and the second hot and cold water mixing faucet 17 is connected to the electric water heater 1 through a hot water branch pipe 15 and a cold water branch pipe 16. Through the above connection, the electric water heater 1 provides warm water for students to bathe and wash.
[0016] A heat preservation water tank 13 and a heat exchanger 21 are also provided in the dormitory bathroom.
[0017] The heat exchanger 21 is located below the wash basin 18, and the sewage inlet and sewage outlet of the heat exchanger 21 are respectively connected to the sewage pipe 19 connected to the wash basin 18, and the tap water inlet and tap water outlet of the heat exchanger 21 are respectively connected to the water supply pipe 22. When the student washes with warm water, the warm water flows into the heat exchanger 21 through the sewage pipe 19 and exchanges heat with the tap water in the heat exchanger 21, thereby increasing the temperature of the tap water. After the heat exchange, the warm water flows into the sewage treatment system through the sewage pipe 19; at the same time, the tap water outlet of the heat exchanger 21 is connected to the water inlet of the thermal insulation water tank 13 through the water supply pipe 22, so that the tap water heated after the heat exchange flows into the thermal insulation water tank 13 for storage.
[0018] The water outlet of the insulated water tank 13 is connected to the water inlet of the electric water heater 1 through the water inlet pipe 2. A pump 3 is provided on the water inlet pipe 2. The pump 3 is used to pump the water in the insulated water tank 13 into the electric water heater 1, thereby providing the electric water heater 1 with water with a certain temperature and reducing the power consumption of the electric water heater 1.
[0019] The warm water pipe 7 is connected to the return port of the insulated water tank 13 through the return pipe 11. The warm water pipe 7 is provided with a first temperature sensor 8, which is located in front of the connection between the warm water pipe 7 and the return pipe 11. The warm water pipe 7 is provided with a first solenoid valve 9, which is located behind the connection between the warm water pipe 7 and the return pipe 11, and is used to control the connection between the warm water pipe 7 and the shower 10. The return pipe 11 is provided with a second solenoid valve 12, which is used to control the connection between the warm water pipe 7 and the insulated water tank 13. When the water temperature in the warm water pipe 7 detected by the first temperature sensor 8 does not reach the bathing temperature, the first solenoid valve 9 is closed, the second solenoid valve 12 is opened, and the warm water flows back to the thermal insulation water tank 13, thereby realizing the recovery of water that does not reach the bathing temperature and saving resources; when the water temperature in the warm water pipe 7 detected by the first temperature sensor 8 reaches the bathing temperature, the first solenoid valve 9 is opened, the second solenoid valve 12 is closed, and the warm water flows out through the shower head 10 to realize bathing.
[0020] The sewage pipe 19 is provided with a third temperature sensor 20, the water supply pipe 22 is provided with a third solenoid valve 23, and the insulated water tank 13 is provided with a second liquid level gauge and a second temperature sensor 14. When the third temperature sensor 20 detects that the sewage flowing into the sewage pipe 19 is sewage with a temperature higher than the set temperature, the third solenoid valve 23 is opened to realize the heat exchange between the tap water and the sewage; when the second liquid level gauge detects that the water in the insulated water tank 13 is at the highest liquid level, even if the high-temperature sewage flows out, the third solenoid valve 23 is not opened; when the second liquid level gauge detects that the water in the insulated water tank 13 is at the lowest liquid level and the pump 3 still needs to pump water into the electric water heater 1, the third solenoid valve 23 is opened to avoid failure to supply water to the electric water heater 1.
[0021] A first liquid level gauge is provided in the electric water heater 1. When the first liquid level gauge detects that the water in the electric water heater 1 is at the highest liquid level, the pump 3 is turned off and stops pumping water into the electric water heater 1; when the first liquid level gauge detects that the water in the electric water heater 1 is not at the highest liquid level and the electric water heater 1 is turned on, the pump 3 is turned on and pumps water into the electric water heater 1.
[0022] The PLC controller is electrically connected to the electric water heater 1; the input end of the PLC controller is respectively connected to the output ends of the first temperature sensor 8, the first liquid level gauge, the second liquid level gauge, the second temperature sensor 14 and the third temperature sensor 20; the output end of the PLC controller is respectively connected to the controlled ends of the pump 3, the first solenoid valve 9, the second solenoid valve 12 and the third solenoid valve 23, thereby realizing automatic control of the system.
[0023] When the utility model is in use, the heat of washing water can be recovered through the heat exchanger 21 and the insulated water tank 13, and the minimum temperature of water used by the electric water heater 1 can be increased, thereby saving electric energy; the return water pipe 11 connected between the warm water pipe 7 and the insulated water tank 13 can be used to recover water that does not reach the bathing temperature, thereby saving water resources.
