Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of water storage and supply systems, and particularly relates to a container-type water storage and supply system for snow making. Background Art

[0002] A snow making machine is a machine used to increase the amount of available snow for winter sports (such as skiing), which can transform water into the form of snow by imitating the formation process of natural snow. The snow making machine needs to be equipped with a water storage and supply system to ensure sufficient water supply. When making snow in winter, the water storage and supply system will use groundwater to supply water to the snow making machine. However, the water pumped out from the ground is generally at a constant temperature of 12°C, while the snow making machine requires the water temperature to be close to 0°C, so the groundwater needs to be cooled before it can meet the conditions.

[0003] In order to achieve the cooling of groundwater, the existing method usually uses a water storage tank for cooling, and then transports it to the snow making machine through a water supply system; however, it is found in actual applications that relying solely on a water storage tank with a limited volume cannot complete the rapid cooling of groundwater, thus affecting the snow making efficiency of the snow making machine. If a complete set of matching cooling equipment on the market is used, not only is the installation complex, the energy consumption high, but also the entire manufacturing cost will increase significantly; in addition, most of the existing water storage and supply systems are not convenient to move, which also poses some obstacles to snow making work.

[0004] Therefore, it is very necessary to invent a container-type water storage and supply system for snow making, which can not only cool groundwater quickly and efficiently, but also is convenient to move as a whole. Content of the Utility Model

[0039] As Figures 4 - 5 and Figures 8 - 10 shown, it includes a water inlet pipe 403 communicating with the outside and a water outlet pipe 404 communicating with the water storage area 102; the water inlet pipe 403 and the water outlet pipe 404 are connected by a number of horizontally arranged straight pipes 401 and a number of elbows 402; fins are installed on both the straight pipes 401 and the elbows 402; the water inlet pipe 403 is connected to the water injection water pump outside;

[0040] The straight pipe 401 is fixedly installed at the top of the electric control room 101 through a fixing frame 405; three water outlets 4011 arranged in a straight line are provided at the bottom end of each straight pipe 401; a pointed block 4012 is provided directly below each water outlet 4011; the pointed block 4012 is fixedly installed at the bottom end of the straight pipe 401 through a bell mouth.

[0041] As Figures 4 - 7As shown, each group of cooling air duct systems 3 includes a first blower box 301 and a cooling air duct 302; the first blower box 301 is fixedly installed on the side wall of the container 1 and is communicated with the cooling air duct 302; a plurality of strip-shaped air outlets 3021 are arranged on the cooling air duct 302, and the air outlets 3021 are used for cooling the water inlet pipe 4; a blower is installed in the first blower box 301 for sucking outside air into the cooling air duct 302.

[0042] As Figure 4 and Figure 11 shown, each group of water inlet air duct systems 5 includes a second blower box 501, a connecting air duct 502, a water inlet cooling pipe 503 and an exhaust air duct 504; the second blower box 501 is fixedly installed on the side wall of the container 1 and is communicated with the connecting air duct 502; the water inlet cooling pipe 503 is integrally U-shaped and is provided with fins; the water inlet cooling pipe 503 is arranged in the water storage area 102, its inlet end is communicated with the connecting air duct, and its outlet end is communicated with the exhaust air duct 504; the exhaust air duct 504 is fixedly installed on the side wall of the container 1 and is communicated with the outside.

[0044] As Figure 1 shown, the electric control room 101 is equipped with doors and windows; the water storage area 102 is equipped with a perspective window to facilitate external personnel to observe the situation inside the water storage area 102.

[0045] The working principle of this embodiment is as follows:

[0046] Since the water pumped from the ground is generally in a constant temperature state of 12°C, and the outside air temperature in winter in the central and northern regions can basically be lower than 0°C, the outside air flow can be used to cool the groundwater.

[0047] The external water injection pump sends the groundwater into the water inlet pipe 403, the groundwater passes through the straight pipe 401 and the elbow 402 and enters the water outlet pipe 404, and finally enters the water storage area 102; in the above process, the blower in the first blower box 301 blows the outside air into the cooling air duct 302 to form an air flow, and the outside air flow flows out from the air outlet 3021. At this time, the outside air flow can exchange heat with the groundwater in the straight pipe 401 and the elbow 402, so as to cool the groundwater for the first time; since the top of the container 1 is open, the outside air flow flowing out from the air outlet 3021 can return to the outside again; the fins on the straight pipe 401 and the elbow 402 expand the heat exchange area and improve the cooling efficiency.

[0048] After a certain amount of groundwater has been stored in the water storage area 102, the water inlet cooling pipe 503 is immersed in the groundwater. The fan in the fan box two 501 blows the outside air into the connecting air duct 502. The outside air forms an air flow and passes through the water inlet cooling pipe 503. Finally, the outside air flow enters the exhaust air pipe 504 and returns to the outside again. During the process of the outside air flow flowing in the water inlet cooling pipe 503, it exchanges heat with the groundwater in the water storage area 102, thereby cooling the groundwater for the second time and keeping the groundwater at a relatively low temperature. The fins on the water inlet cooling pipe 503 expand the heat exchange area and improve the cooling efficiency.

[0049] When snow needs to be made with groundwater, the groundwater in the water storage area 102 enters the snow maker through the pipe pump assembly three, the centrifugal pump 202, and the pipe pump assembly two 201 in sequence. Embodiment Two:

[0050] This embodiment is based on Embodiment One, and two pipe pump assemblies one 103 are installed on the side wall of the water storage area 102 (as Figure 2 and Figure 4 shown); the pipe pump assembly one 103 connects the water storage area 102 with another water storage container to expand the water storage capacity.
