Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model discloses a liquid level detection device for a small well in a water pump room, belonging to the technical field of liquid level detection devices. Background Art

[0002] With the development of intelligent mining, many positions in the coal mining industry have become unmanned, and the trend is towards unmanned and automated operations. As coal mining faces deepen, drainage becomes a crucial issue for miners. With the changing natural environment in recent years and the sudden increase in rainfall during the rainy season, underground drainage operations have become particularly important, not only as a line of defense to ensure production, but also as a line of defense to ensure safety. The operation of the main drainage pump is crucial in underground drainage operations. The normal operation of the main drainage pump is currently mainly controlled remotely from the ground. Accurately controlling the liquid level in the underground water tank is a pressing issue.

[0003] Research has revealed that the most critical factors limiting water pump operation are the pump's condition, the coal sludge content in the well, the liquid level monitoring, the integrity of each valve, and finally, the functioning of the starter switch. A single-use, single-standby, and single-maintenance system for the pump is generally sufficient, as are the associated valves and starter switches. Therefore, accurately monitoring the liquid level in the well and water tank is crucial.

[0004] For the main bin and auxiliary bin, since their capacity is large and the bins are cleared every year before the rainy season, there is not much coal slime in the main bin and auxiliary bin. The use of electronic liquid level gauges can fully meet the requirements for water tank liquid level detection, and the liquid level is accurate.

[0005] Currently, electronic level gauges are used for small wells. Based on the liquid level data fed back to the main controller by the electronic level gauge, the main drainage pump is started and stopped to control the liquid level in the small well. However, electronic level gauges are easily restricted by external factors and can only be used when the water quality is good. The underground water tank mainly contains sewage, which has a lot of coal sludge sediment. After entering the small well, the coal sludge accumulates at the bottom of the small well. When the coal sludge accumulates to a certain height, it will bury the electronic level gauge, causing data distortion. The small well liquid level cannot be accurately detected, and the main drainage pump cannot be accurately controlled. This can easily lead to misoperation or omission, and the liquid level may be too high, causing the ventilation section to be blocked, resulting in gas exceeding the limit. In this case, the coal sludge in the small well needs to be cleaned. After cleaning, the electronic level gauge is difficult to reset, and the detection results will still be inaccurate, which will also cause the above-mentioned problems. Therefore, there is currently a lack of a liquid level detection device that can accurately detect the liquid level in the small well. Utility Model Content

[0028] like Figure 1 、 Figure 2 As shown, a liquid level detection device for a small well in a water pump room includes a liquid level float 1, a fixed pulley 2, a wire rope 3, a weight 4, a marking rod 5, an indicator needle 6 and a camera 7. The liquid level float 1 floats on the liquid surface in the small well 11, and two fixed pulleys 2 are respectively installed on the inner walls on both sides of the small well 11. One end of the wire rope 3 is connected to the liquid level float 1, and the other end is connected to the weight 4 suspended above the liquid surface after passing through the two fixed pulleys 2. Both ends of the marking rod 5 are fixed to the inner walls on both sides of the small well 11. A liquid level indicating area 8 is provided in the middle of the marking rod 5. The indicator needle 6 is fixed to the middle of the wire rope 3 and is located directly in front of the liquid level indicating area 8 on the marking rod 5. The camera 7 is installed directly in front of the marking rod 5, facing the indicator needle 6 and the liquid level indicating area 8. The camera 7 is connected to the host 9 in the control room by signal.

[0029] The weight of the weight hammer 4 is smaller than the weight of the vacuum float 1 .

Of the two warning water level indication areas 82, the one close to the weight 4 is the high water level warning area, and the one close to the liquid level float 1 is the low water level warning area. Of the two dangerous water level indication areas 83, the one close to the weight 4 is the high water level danger area, and the one close to the liquid level float 1 is the low water level danger area.

[0031] The safe water level indication area 81 can be painted green and marked as safe water level, the two warning water level indication areas 82 can be painted yellow and marked as warning water level, and the two dangerous water level indication areas 83 can be painted red and marked as dangerous water level.

The liquid level float 1 can drive the weight 4 to rise and fall when the liquid level rises and falls, and can keep the wire rope 3 straight. When the liquid level float 1 rises with the liquid level, the weight 4 falls, and the wire rope 3 drives the indicator needle 6 to move to the high water level area. When the liquid level float 1 falls with the liquid level, the weight 4 rises, and the wire rope 3 drives the indicator needle 6 to move to the low water level area. In addition, the density of the weight 4 is greater than the density of the liquid in the small well 11. In this way, even if the liquid When the level rises, the sinking of the heavy hammer 4 into the liquid does not affect the effect of the utility model; the marking rod 5 is responsible for carrying the liquid level indication area 8, and cooperates with the indicator needle 6 to accurately display the liquid level situation; the indicator needle 6 is responsible for indicating the liquid level situation; the camera 7 is responsible for recording the liquid level situation and transmitting the image signal to the host 9; the host 9 can display the picture taken by the camera 7, and the staff monitors the liquid level in the small well 11 through the picture to control the start and stop of the main drainage pump; in addition, an image intelligent recognition module and an alarm module can be set in the host 9.
