[0027] Embodiment
[0028] See Figure 1, this embodiment provides a pipeline anti-freezing device, which includes a heat exchange module 1, a first heat medium circulation system, a second heat medium circulation system, and a third heat medium circulation system.

[0030] The second heat medium circulation system includes a first heat source 2, a second heat source 3, and a second heat medium circulation pipeline. The first heat source 2 and the second heat source 3 are connected in series to the second heat medium circulation pipeline to form a second loop for heating the heat exchange module 1;
[0031] The third heat medium circulation system includes a second heat source 3, a third heat source 4, and a third heat medium circulation pipeline.

[0032] Preferably, the heat exchange module 1 includes a tracing pipe arranged on the pipeline. The tracing pipe is a thin-walled copper pipe with internal threads. The tracing pipe is wound around the pipeline, and the distance between adjacent two turns of the tracing pipe is 200 mm - 300 mm. Using a thin-walled copper pipe with internal threads wound around the pipeline at intervals can improve the heat exchange efficiency between the heat medium and the pipeline.
[0033] In this embodiment, the first heat source 2 is a solar heat source, the second heat source 3 is a hot water tank, and the third heat source 4 is an electric heater. The electric heater is arranged in the hot water tank. In this embodiment, the heat medium is heated by three heat sources. Specifically, the first one is to heat the heat medium by the solar heat source; when the temperature of the heat medium is relatively high, the heat medium flows along the heat medium circulation pipeline to the hot water tank to heat the cold water in the hot water tank, and at the same time, the temperature of the heat medium can be reduced. When the solar heat source stops working, the hot water in the hot water tank serves as the second heat source; when the temperature of the second heat source cannot meet the requirements, the electric heater is started to heat the heat medium. The heat medium is heated through the synergistic effect of the above three methods, making full use of energy and solving the problems of high energy consumption and high cost caused by a single form of electric heating.
[0034] In this embodiment, the heat medium circulation pipeline includes pipeline 1-5, pipeline 2-6, pipeline 3-7, pipeline 4-8, pipeline 5-9, pipeline 6-10, pipeline 7-11, pipeline 8-12, and pipeline 9-13. Among them, the outlet end of the solar heat source is connected to the first end of pipeline 1-5, the second end of pipeline 1-5 is connected to the first ends of pipeline 2-6 and pipeline 8-12, the second end of pipeline 2-6 is connected to the second end of pipeline 9-13 and the first end of pipeline 3-7, and the second end of pipeline 3-7 is connected to pipeline 4-8; the first end of the tracing pipe is connected to pipeline 4-8, and the second end is connected to the first end of pipeline 5-9. The second end of pipeline 5-9 is connected to the first ends of pipeline 6-10 and pipeline 7-11. The second end of pipeline 6-10 is connected to the inlet end of the solar heat source, and the second end of pipeline 7-11 is connected to the second end of pipeline 8-12 and the first end of pipeline 9-13; the middle section of pipeline 9-13 is spirally arranged in the hot water tank, and an electric heater is arranged in the hot water tank; the hot water tank is also connected with a water inlet pipe and a drain pipe.
[0035] In this embodiment, a valve 1-15 is provided on pipeline 2-6, a valve 2-16 is provided on pipeline 6-10, a valve 3-17 is provided on pipeline 7-11, and a valve 4-18 is provided on pipeline 8-12. The valve 1-15, valve 2-16, valve 3-17, and valve 4-18 are all electric valves.
[0036] In this embodiment, a heat medium circulation pump 20 is provided on pipeline 5-9 to make the heat medium circulate in the heat medium circulation pipeline.
[0037] In this embodiment, a temperature sensor 14 is provided on pipeline 4-8 to detect the temperature of the heat medium.
[0038] In this embodiment, a heat medium expansion tank 19 is further included. The heat medium expansion tank 19 is arranged on pipeline 3-7 to prevent the heat medium from expanding and damaging the heat medium circulation pipeline due to excessive temperature.
[0039] In this embodiment, a control system is further included. The control system is connected to the electric heater, temperature sensor 14, valve 1-15, valve 2-16, valve 3-17, valve 4-18, and heat medium circulation pump 20.
[0040] In this embodiment, pipeline 1-5, pipeline 2-6, pipeline 3-7, pipeline 4-8, pipeline 5-9, and pipeline 6-10 form the first heat medium circulation pipeline, combining the solar heat source and the tracing pipe to form the first heat medium circulation system; pipeline 1-5, pipeline 8-12, pipeline 9-13, pipeline 3-7, pipeline 4-8, pipeline 5-9, and pipeline 6-10 form the second heat medium circulation pipeline, combining the solar heat source, hot water tank, and tracing pipe to form the second heat medium circulation system; pipeline 7-11, pipeline 9-13, pipeline 3-7, pipeline 4-8, and pipeline 5-9 form the third heat medium circulation pipeline, combining the hot water tank, electric heater, and tracing pipe to form the third heat medium circulation system.
[0041] When the pipeline anti-freezing device of the present utility model is specifically used, the operation is as follows:
[0042] When there is sufficient solar energy during the day, the solar heat source absorbs heat energy and heats the heat medium. The control system controls the opening of valve 15 and valve 16, and the closing of valve 17 and valve 18, that is, the first heat medium circulation system works, and the flowing heat medium heats the pipeline through the tracing pipe.
[0043] When the temperature sensor 14 detects that the temperature of the heat medium exceeds the highest temperature threshold, to prevent the pipeline structure from being damaged by excessive temperature, the control system controls the closing of valve 15 and valve 17, the opening of valve 18, and valve 16 remains open, that is, the second heat medium circulation system works. The flowing heat medium passes through the hot water tank and heats the cold water in the tank (the heated hot water is used as the second heat source), while reducing the temperature of the heat medium; if the temperature detected by the temperature sensor 14 still exceeds the highest temperature threshold, the control system controls the heat medium circulation pump 20 to reduce the flow rate of the heat medium, so that the heat medium flows in the hot water tank for a longer time, dissipates heat fully, and reduces the temperature of the heat medium.
[0044] When working at night, since the solar heat source stops working and cannot continue to heat the heat medium, at this time, the controller controls the closing of valve 15, valve 16 and valve 18, and opens valve 17. The third heat medium circulation system works, heats the heat medium through the hot water in the hot water tank, and at the same time detects the temperature of the heat medium through the temperature sensor 14. When the temperature of the heat medium exceeds the lowest threshold, the electric heater is turned on to heat the cold water in the hot water tank to ensure the temperature of the heat medium. At the same time, the control system controls the heat medium circulation pump 20 to slow down the flow rate of the heat medium to ensure that the heat medium has enough temperature to heat the pipeline.
[0045] The pipeline anti-freezing device provided by the present utility model is heated by solar energy during the day, and the excess energy is converted into hot water for energy storage. At night, the heat medium is heated by hot water, making full use of clean energy, avoiding energy waste, and cooperating with the electric heater for auxiliary heating to ensure the temperature of the heat medium and prevent the pipeline from freezing. Compared with the form of heating the heat medium by electric heating alone, it reduces the power consumption and cost.
[0046] The above are only the preferred embodiments of the present utility model and are not used to limit the present utility model. For those skilled in the art, the present utility model can have various changes and modifications. Any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present utility model shall be included in the protection scope of the present utility model.
