As the space formed after the foundation excavation, controlling the water level within the foundation pit is critical to prevent water accumulation that could lead to decreased soil stability, pit collapse, or ground subsidence. During foundation pit dewatering, water pumps are typically used, and changes in the water level within the wells need to be continuously and accurately monitored to prevent damage to the pumps due to prolonged operation or dry running. Traditional methods often require constant manual monitoring, which not only increases labor costs but also increases the risk of safety hazards due to human negligence.
[0003] To overcome the problem of constant manual monitoring and to save electricity and improve energy efficiency, construction sites generally adopt automatic control strategies. This involves the pump automatically starting to pump water when the water level in the dewatering well rises to a preset height, and automatically stopping when the water level drops to a certain level. However, existing water level monitoring methods typically use float sensors, which are often unsuitable for the confined and complex environment of dewatering wells, limiting the reliability of the automated control system.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0031] In order to make the utility model embodiment's purpose, technical scheme and advantage more clear, the following will be clear, complete to the technical scheme of the utility model with the attached chart is described, obviously, the described embodiment is the utility model a part of embodiment, instead of all the embodiment. Based on the embodiment in the utility model, all other embodiments that the ordinary skill in the art obtains without doing the premise of creative labor belong to the scope of the utility model protection.
[0032] First of all, it needs to be pointed out that in the process of foundation pit excavation, the height of underground water level directly affects the safety and efficiency of construction. If the underground water level is higher, it may cause piping, quicksand and other problems, and even cause ground deformation outside the pit. Therefore, the setting of dewatering well is an important means of underground water control in foundation pit engineering. By extracting underground water through dewatering well, the underground water level in the foundation pit can be effectively reduced to ensure the smooth construction. The dewatering outside the pit reduces the underground water level outside the pit by setting dewatering well, and reduces the influence of underground water on foundation pit excavation.
[0033] Combined with Figures 1 to 3As shown, the utility model embodiment provides a kind of device for controlling water level in foundation pit dewatering, realize the automation control of water level in foundation pit dewatering process, especially suitable for the environment of small and complex space in dewatering well.The device mainly includes water pump 1, pumping pipe 3, water pump control module 4, electric signal wire harness 5 and water pump cable 6, wherein, water pump 1 is located in the position near bottom in dewatering well 2 for foundation pit dewatering.More specifically, water pump 1 selects corrosion-resistant, high-efficiency submersible pump, is installed in the bottom of dewatering well 2, ensure that it can effectively pump water.It needs to be explained, the selection of water pump 1 needs to consider the size of foundation pit, expected precipitation and well depth and other factors comprehensively, to ensure sufficient pumping capacity.Exemplarily, water pump 1 can be lowered to about thirty meters depth.
[0034] One end of pumping pipe 3 is connected to the output end of water pump 1, and the other end extends out of dewatering well 2.More specifically, pumping pipe 3 uses high-strength, wear-resistant PE pipe, one end is connected to the output end of water pump 1, the other end extends out of dewatering well 2 through the hole reserved in well wall, and is connected to the designated drainage system.It also needs to be explained that the diameter of pumping pipe 3 is determined according to the water discharge capacity of water pump 1 to ensure maximum drainage efficiency.
[0035] The water pump control module 4 is located outside the precipitation well 2. The electrical signal wire bundle 5 includes a first electrical signal wire 50, a second electrical signal wire 51 and a third electrical signal wire 52, both ends of which are located inside the precipitation well 2, one end of the first electrical signal wire 50 is connected with one end of the water pump control module 4, and the other ends of the second electrical signal wire 51 and the third electrical signal wire 52 are both connected with the other end of the water pump control module 4; the first electrical signal wire 50 is provided with a conductive contact below the natural water level line 20 inside the precipitation well 2 near one end, the second electrical signal wire 51 is provided with a conductive contact at the lower limit of the water level line 21 inside the precipitation well 2 near one end, and the third electrical signal wire 52 is provided with a conductive contact at the upper limit of the water level line 22 inside the precipitation well 2 near one end; the natural water level line 20 is lower than the lower limit of the water level line 21. Specifically, the electrical signal wire bundle 5 is composed of three independent electrical signal wires (the first electrical signal wire 50, the second electrical signal wire 51 and the third electrical signal wire 52), which are all wrapped by waterproof insulation materials to ensure safety and reliability in the humid environment inside the well. The end of each electrical signal wire is provided with a conductive contact, which is designed to be in direct contact with the well water without being affected by corrosion. The conductive contact of the first electrical signal wire 50 is below the natural water level line 20, serving as a reference potential to ensure a stable reference voltage in all cases. The conductive contact of the second electrical signal wire 51 is arranged at the lower limit of the water level line 21, and when the water level drops to this position, the contact is closed, sending a signal to the water pump control module 4 to stop the water pump. The conductive contact of the third electrical signal wire 52 is located at the upper limit of the water level line 22, and once the water level rises to this position, the contact is also closed, triggering the water pump control module 4 to start the water pump 1 to pump water. For example, the first electrical signal wire 50, the second electrical signal wire 51 and the third electrical signal wire 52 are made of copper wire. The first electrical signal wire 50 is pulled out below the natural water level line 20, the second electrical signal wire 51 is pulled out at the lower limit of the water level line 21, and the third electrical signal wire 52 is pulled out at the upper limit of the water level line 22.
[0036] One end of the water pump cable 6 is connected with the electrical signal input end of the water pump 1, and the other end is connected with the water pump control module 4. That is, the water pump cable 6 is used to transmit the electrical signal and power connection between the water pump 1 and the control module 4. The cable 6 is also designed to be waterproof to ensure its durability in the well environment.
[0037] In detail, after the device is started, the water pump control module 4 continuously monitors the reference potential provided by the first electrical signal line 50 and determines the current water level by the state of the conductive contacts of the second electrical signal line 51 and the third electrical signal line 52. When the water level is lower than the lower limit 21, the contact of the second electrical signal line 51 opens, and the water pump control module 4 stops the operation of water pump 1 to avoid energy consumption and wear caused by the water pump running dry. When the water level exceeds the upper limit 22, the contact of the third electrical signal line 52 closes, sending a start signal to the water pump control module 4, and water pump 1 immediately begins pumping until the water level drops back below the upper limit 22. When the water level is between the lower limit 21 and the upper limit 22, water pump 1 remains in standby mode, ensuring the safety of the foundation pit while achieving energy saving and high efficiency.
[0038] In one embodiment, such as Figure 7 As shown, in the water pump control module, the main switch a is closed to supply power, and two modes can be selected: automatic and manual. When the three-way knob b is selected to the manual position I, manually clicking the start button c energizes the AC contactor coil d, closing the 1KM circuit to start the water pump. Manually clicking the stop button e de-energizes the AC contactor coil d, opening the 1KM circuit to stop the water pump. When the three-way knob b is selected to the automatic position II, after the water level reaches the upper limit, the time relay coil f is energized, closing the 1KT circuit to start the water pump. After the water level reaches the lower limit, the time relay coil f is de-energized, opening the 1KT circuit to stop the water pump, requiring no manual operation. When the three-way knob b is selected to the stop position III, the water pump cannot be started. G is the running indicator light, and h is the power indicator light.
[0039] It should be noted that during the initial installation phase, the positions of the upper limit 22 and the lower limit 21 of the water level line need to be adjusted according to the actual conditions of the foundation pit to ensure that the water level control can meet the construction requirements while avoiding frequent starting and stopping of the water pump.
[0040] Through the above specific implementation methods, this utility model not only solves the problems of high cost and low efficiency of manual monitoring in traditional foundation pit dewatering control, but also overcomes the problem of difficulty in water level monitoring in narrow and complex environments.
[0041] In one possible implementation, such as Figure 2As shown, the electrical signal wire bundle 5 is connected with a counterweight 12 at one end inside the dewatering well 2. Specifically, during the dewatering process of the foundation pit, due to the change of water level in the well and possible soil loosening or water flow disturbance, the electrical signal wire bundle 5 can be physically affected, resulting in its position deviation or distortion. Such deviation will affect the accurate correspondence of the conductive contacts with the water level in the well, thereby affecting the reliability of the entire water level control system. The main function of the counterweight 12 is to increase the stability of the electrical signal wire bundle 5 in water, so that it always remains vertical. In this way, no matter how the water level in the well changes, the conductive contacts (contacts below the lower limit of water level line 21, upper limit of water level line 22 and natural water level line 20) can always accurately correspond to their preset positions, not only improving the accuracy of water level control, but also reducing the false triggering or failure caused by wire bundle deviation.
[0042] Preferably, the counterweight 12 is made of high-density, corrosion-resistant materials such as lead, iron or high-density plastic, etc. to ensure its stability in underwater environment. In terms of shape design, the counterweight 12 is designed to be streamlined or flat to reduce the resistance of water flow.
[0043] In an implementation, as shown in Figure 1 , the water pumping pipe 3 is connected with a water collecting pipe 7 at one end outside the dewatering well 2. Specifically, during the dewatering operation of the foundation pit, the water pumping pipe 3 is responsible for pumping out the accumulated water in the dewatering well 2, and the water collecting pipe 7 serves to collect the pumped-out water.
[0044] Illustratively, the water collecting pipe 7 is arranged around the dewatering well 2 to collect pumped-out water from multiple dewatering wells. Preferably, the water collecting pipe 7 is equipped with flow control valves, pressure gauges and other accessories to control the flow of pumped-out water and monitor the pressure. Through the connection of the water pumping pipe 3 and the water collecting pipe 7, the drainage efficiency can be improved. The water collecting pipe 7 can collect pumped-out water from multiple dewatering wells, reducing the number of drainage pipelines and construction costs.
[0045] In an implementation, as shown in Figure 1 and Figure 4 , the bottom of the water collecting pipe 7 is installed with a support frame 8, the top end of the support frame 8 is installed with a channel steel 9, and the water collecting pipe 7 is installed on the channel steel 9. Specifically, the support frame 8 serves as the main load-bearing structure of the water collecting pipe 7. The support frame 8 is made of steel and has sufficient strength. The bottom of the support frame 8 is fixed to the ground or foundation to prevent it from shifting or overturning, ensuring the stability of the water collecting pipe 7 during installation and use.
[0046] In an implementation, as shown in Figure 5As shown, the end of the water collecting pipe 7 is provided with an exhaust pipe 10. During the process of foundation pit dewatering, as the water pump 3 continuously pumps out the water accumulated in the well, the air pressure in the well will gradually decrease, forming a negative pressure environment, which will affect the pumping efficiency. The setting of the exhaust pipe 10 balances the air pressure inside and outside the well, prevents the formation of a negative pressure environment, and thus ensures the smooth progress of the drainage operation.
[0047] In an implementation manner, as shown in Figure 6 As shown, the end of the water collecting pipe 7 is provided with an exhaust pipe 10. During the process of foundation pit dewatering, as the water pump 3 continuously pumps out the water accumulated in the well, the air pressure in the well will gradually decrease, forming a negative pressure environment, which will affect the pumping efficiency. The setting of the exhaust pipe 10 balances the air pressure inside and outside the well, prevents the formation of a negative pressure environment, and thus ensures the smooth progress of the drainage operation.
[0048] In an implementation manner, the non-conductive contact positions on the first, second and third electric signal lines 50, 51 and 52 are all sleeved with insulating sleeves. The insulating sleeves wrap the non-conductive contact positions on the first, second and third electric signal lines 50, 51 and 52 to prevent electric shock accidents or short circuit failures caused by exposed electric wires.
[0049] In an implementation manner, the water pump cable 6 is sleeved with an insulating sleeve, which enhances the insulation performance of the water pump cable 6, thereby ensuring the electrical safety of the device during operation and preventing the risk of electric shock or short circuit failure caused by exposed or aged cable.
[0050] Exemplarily, the insulating sleeve is made of silica gel material, which can well adapt to the bending and movement of the water pump cable.
