Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of cleaning equipment, in particular to an intelligent canopy cleaning device. Background Art
[0002] Awnings are architectural features installed above building entrances or balconies to protect against rain, wind, and falling objects. Glass awnings are widely used in modern buildings due to their excellent transparency and lighting. However, over time, they accumulate debris such as dust and leaves, seriously affecting the lighting and aesthetics.
[0003] Currently, there are two main methods for cleaning awnings: manual cleaning and automatic cleaning.
[0004] Manual cleaning means people use brooms, rags, detergents and other cleaning supplies to clean while standing on a ladder or on the top of an awning. However, since the awning is high and located outdoors in harsh environmental conditions, its carrying capacity is reduced due to long-term service. This cleaning method carries a greater risk of falling from heights.
[0005] Automatic cleaning is mostly done by driving or telescopic rods to drive the bristles for cleaning, which requires people to issue corresponding instructions to complete. In addition, most cleaning devices do not have diversion devices, which can easily cause sewage to splash out, affecting pedestrians walking under the awning. In addition, the sewage is not reused after cleaning, wasting water resources.
[0006] For example, the application number is CN202020597725.4, and the name is: A Chinese utility model patent for an automatically cleaning glass canopy. The canopy can be cleaned through a cleaning component, but it cannot automatically clean according to the cleanliness of the canopy, and it cannot recycle and reuse the sewage.
[0007] Therefore existing technology still needs to be improved and improved. Utility Model Content
[0008] In view of the above-mentioned deficiencies in the prior art, the purpose of the present invention is to provide an intelligent awning cleaning device that can automatically start and stop the cleaning component according to the light transmittance of the awning, and can also recycle sewage, thereby greatly saving water resources.
[0009] In order to solve the above technical problems, the present invention adopts the following technical solutions:
[0010] An intelligent awning cleaning device includes a pressure pump, at least one transparency sensor arranged on the awning, a cleaning component, a water supply and sewage recovery component for collecting sewage on the awning, and a pressure pump controller. The cleaning component is arranged on one side of the awning, the pressure pump and the transparency sensor are connected to the pressure pump controller, and when the transparency sensor detects that the transmittance of the awning is lower than a set value, the pressure pump controller turns on the pressure pump to start the cleaning component, so that the cleaning component sprays to clean the awning, and controls the water supply and sewage recovery component to collect sewage.
[0011] In the intelligent canopy cleaning device, the water supply and sewage recovery component includes a drainage component, a wastewater treatment tank and a water storage tank. The water storage tank is connected to the wastewater treatment tank. A filter is provided in the wastewater treatment tank and / or between the wastewater treatment tank and the water storage tank.

[0026] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention more clearly understood, the present invention is further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention.
[0027] It should be noted that when a component is referred to as being “mounted on,” “fixed on,” or “disposed on” another component, it may be directly on the other component or there may be an intermediate component. When a component is referred to as being “connected to” another component, it may be directly connected to the other component or there may be an intermediate component.
[0028] It should also be noted that the directional terms such as left, right, up, and down in the embodiments of the present invention are merely relative concepts or are based on the normal use status of the product, and should not be considered as restrictive.
[0029] See also Figure 1 and Figure 2 The intelligent canopy cleaning device provided by the present invention includes a pressure pump 34, a pressure pump controller 1, at least one transparency sensor 2 arranged on the canopy 200, a cleaning component 3 and a water supply and sewage recovery component 4 for collecting sewage on the canopy 200. The cleaning component 3 is arranged on one side of the canopy 200 (such as the upper outer side). When the transparency sensor 2 detects that the transmittance of the canopy 200 is lower than the set value, the pressure pump controller 1 turns on the pressure pump 34, starts the cleaning component 3 to spray and clean the canopy 200, and controls the water supply and sewage recovery component 4 to collect sewage. The utility model collects sewage through the water supply and sewage recovery component 4 and purifies the sewage so that the sewage can be recycled, which can greatly save water resources and avoid wasting water resources.
[0030] The utility model can detect the transmittance of the awning 200 in real time through the transmittance sensor 2. When the transmittance is lower than the set value, the pressure pump controller 1 controls the cleaning component 3 to clean the awning 200, so that the awning 200 can be kept clean for a long time. The utility model can complete the cleaning work of the awning 200 safely, efficiently and intelligently, greatly saving manpower and material resources.
[0031] The transparency sensors 2 (e.g., photosensors) can be pre-embedded or attached to the surface of the canopy 200. The specific number of transparency sensors (e.g., 3-5) can be determined based on the size of the canopy 200 and is not limited here. When the transmittance of the canopy 200 reaches a certain set value, such as 80%, 70%, 50%, etc., the canopy 200 can be automatically cleaned.
[0032] Of course, the cleaning frequency of the awning 200 can also be based on the environment of the awning 200 or the needs of the owner, and the cleaning component 3 can be started regularly, such as once a quarter, once a month, once a week... or remotely controlled, which is not limited here.
[0033] The booster pump controller can adopt a PLC controller model S7-200 produced by Siemens, which can be used for automation of detection, monitoring and control in various industries, supports RS-485 network communication, and has 6 expansion units, which can be connected to 6 types of input and output components. The transparency sensor 2 of the present invention can be connected to the analog input / output terminal of the booster pump controller, and the booster pump 34 can be connected to the digital input / output terminal of the booster pump controller.
[0034] In practice, the S7-200 PLC controller can set the setpoint value for the transparency sensor, receive the sensor's measured value, and issue adjustment signals based on the combination of the setpoint and measured values. Its input terminals receive analog signals from the transparency sensor, while its output terminals typically output a current signal varying between 4 and 20 mA or a voltage signal varying between 0 and 10 V. This signal is used to control the power of the booster pump, thereby controlling the spray pressure of the cleaning components.
[0035] The water supply and sewage recovery assembly 4 includes a drainage assembly 41, a wastewater treatment tank 42 and a water storage tank 43. The water storage tank 43 is connected to the wastewater treatment tank 42. A filter 44 is provided in the wastewater treatment tank 42 and / or between the wastewater treatment tank 42 and the water storage tank 43. The drainage assembly 41 is connected to the wastewater treatment tank 42, and the water storage tank 43 is connected to the cleaning assembly 3. The filter 44 can be provided only in the wastewater treatment tank 42 or between the wastewater treatment tank 42 and the water storage tank 43 (e.g., Figure 1 In the manner shown), when the cleaning component 3 cleans the canopy 200, the drainage component 41 promptly introduces the sewage into the wastewater treatment tank 42, and the filter element 44 purifies the sewage before the water enters the water storage tank 43. The water in the water storage tank 43 is then used to clean the canopy 200 through the cleaning component 3. This cycle continues until the transparency sensor 2 detects that the transmittance of the canopy 200 reaches the set value, and the cleaning can be stopped. The water supply and sewage recovery component 4 can fully utilize water resources, form a virtuous cycle, and greatly save water resources.
[0036] Among them, the water storage tank 43 is provided with a first water source interface 431, and water can be added to the water storage tank 43 through the first water source interface 431. The wastewater treatment tank 42 is provided with a second water source interface 421. The bottom of the wastewater treatment tank 42 is also provided with a sewage outlet (not shown in the figure). Clean water is added through the second water source interface 421 to clean the wastewater treatment tank 42 and the filter element 44, and then the dirt in the wastewater treatment tank 42 is discharged in time through the sewage outlet to extend the service life of the filter element 44 and the wastewater treatment tank 42.
[0037] The drainage assembly 41 includes a drainage floor drain 45 and a drainage pipe 46 arranged on the canopy 200. One end of the drainage pipe 46 is connected to the drainage floor drain 45, and the other end of the drainage pipe 46 is connected to the wastewater treatment tank 42, so that the sewage enters the wastewater treatment tank 42 through the drainage floor drain 45 and the drainage pipe 46.
[0038] Among them, the position of the drainage floor drain 45 is lower than the surface of the canopy 200. A filter net 48 is provided in the drainage floor drain 45. The filter net 48 can filter out dirt such as leaves and impurities to reduce the burden of the filter element 44, extend the service life of the filter element 44, and avoid clogging of the drain pipe 46, which affects the drainage effect.
[0039] Furthermore, a drainage ditch 47 is provided at the inner end of the canopy 200 (i.e., located on one side of the building wall 100), and the drainage floor drain 45 is provided at one end of the drainage ditch 47. Through the drainage ditch 47, sewage can enter the drainage floor drain 45 in a more concentrated and orderly manner. The canopy 200 can be set to a slope that is higher on the outside and lower on the inside, so that sewage can be more quickly concentrated in the drainage ditch 47.
[0040] Please continue reading Figure 1 and Figure 2 The cleaning component 3 includes a liquid outlet pipe 31, a liquid outlet cross bar 32 and several high-pressure nozzles 33. The liquid outlet pipe 31 is connected to the water storage tank 43 and the liquid outlet cross bar 32. The high-pressure nozzle 33 is arranged on the liquid outlet cross bar 32. The water in the water storage tank 43 is drawn to the liquid outlet cross bar 32 through the liquid outlet pipe 31, and then the water is sprayed out by the high-pressure nozzle 33 for cleaning the canopy 200.
[0041] The canopy 200 is a transparent canopy or a translucent canopy, and the high-pressure nozzles 34 are arranged in a row. The pressure pump 34 completes a water suction and discharge process, converting ordinary water into high-pressure, low-flow-rate water, and then transporting it to the liquid outlet pipe 31, so that the water reaches the high-pressure nozzle 33 with a certain amount of energy, and then the high-pressure nozzle 33 converts the high-pressure, low-flow-rate water into a low-pressure, high-flow-rate jet for impacting the dirt on the surface of the canopy 200, making the canopy 200 cleaner.
[0042] Furthermore, a swinging member (not shown in the figure) is provided between the high-pressure nozzle 33 and the liquid outlet cross bar 32 for adjusting the spraying angle of the high-pressure nozzle 33, so that the high-pressure nozzle 33 can spray water in a directional or non-directional manner, which is more conducive to cleaning the awning 200.
[0043] The smart canopy 200 cleaning device also includes a fence 5 for preventing water from splashing. The fence 5 is set around the canopy 200 and can be higher than the smart canopy 200 by a certain height (such as 10-25CM). The fence 5 can prevent the high-pressure nozzle 33 from splashing sewage when cleaning the canopy 200, thereby preventing sewage from splashing onto passers-by during the cleaning process.
[0044] Specifically, the fence 5 surrounds three sides of the canopy 200 and is sealed against the building wall 100 at both ends. Combined with the building wall 100, the canopy 200 is shielded on all sides, preventing wastewater from splashing out. Furthermore, sealing the fence 5 against the building wall 100 prevents wastewater from leaking, thereby preventing contamination of the building wall 100.
[0045] Moreover, when it rains, the fence 5 serves to block water, preventing rainwater from falling along the outer edge of the awning 200 and causing rainwater to fall on passers-by. The rainwater can also be collected and enter the wastewater treatment box 42 along the drainage component 41 for use after purification, which can further save water resources.
[0046] Among them, the high-pressure nozzle 33 is located at the outer end of the canopy 200, that is, at the fence 5, which plays the role of hiding the liquid outlet cross bar 32 and the high-pressure nozzle 33, so that the liquid outlet cross bar 32 and the high-pressure nozzle 33 are not exposed to affect the appearance. The drainage ditch 47 and the drainage floor drain 45 are located at the inner end of the canopy 200, which can better collect sewage. Specifically, the drainage ditch 47 is sealed with the building wall 100 to avoid sewage leakage.
[0047] Furthermore, the wastewater treatment tank 42, water storage tank 43, pressure pump 34, pressure pump controller 1, etc. can be buried underground, which is beneficial to maintaining the appearance of the smart canopy. Moreover, by burying the wastewater treatment tank 42, water storage tank 43, pressure pump 34, pressure pump controller 1, etc., they can be prevented from being exposed to the natural environment, which helps to protect these components from direct sunlight, rain, pollution, etc., thereby extending the service life of the smart canopy cleaning device and saving maintenance costs. In addition, the wastewater treatment tank 42 and water storage tank 43 can be provided with a cover to facilitate maintenance of the wastewater treatment tank 42 and water storage tank 43, such as cleaning and replacing filters.
[0048] Furthermore, a liquid level detector and a water inlet pump are also provided in the water tank 43. The water inlet pump is connected to an external water inlet pipe. When the liquid level of the water tank 43 is lower than the minimum liquid level, the water inlet pump is turned on to replenish the water storage capacity of the water tank 43. When the liquid level of the water tank 43 is higher than the maximum liquid level, the water inlet pump is turned off.
[0049] In summary, the intelligent canopy cleaning device provided by the present invention uses a transparency sensor to detect that the canopy's light transmittance is below a set value. The booster pump controller controls the booster pump to activate the cleaning assembly to spray and clean the canopy. The booster pump controller also controls the water supply and wastewater recovery assembly to collect and purify wastewater, allowing it to be recycled. This significantly conserves water resources and avoids waste. Furthermore, the transparency sensor can detect the canopy's light transmittance in real time. When the light transmittance is below a set value, the booster pump controller controls the cleaning assembly to clean the canopy, keeping the canopy clean for a long time.
[0050] The utility model can complete the awning cleaning work safely, efficiently and intelligently, greatly saving manpower and material resources.
[0051] It is understandable that those skilled in the art can make equivalent substitutions or changes based on the technical solution and utility model concept of the utility model, and all these changes or substitutions should fall within the scope of protection of the claims attached to the utility model.
