With the acceleration of industrialization, the demand for temperature control in production processes is increasing daily. While existing insulated water tanks can meet basic needs to a certain extent, their level of automation is low, making it difficult to strictly control water temperature. Therefore, they are not suitable for use in industries with stringent temperature requirements, limiting their application scope. Utility Model Content

[0016] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0017] Example 1:
[0018] like Figure 1 As shown, this utility model provides an intelligent industrial sensor-controlled insulated water tank, including an insulated water tank body 1. The insulated water tank body 1 includes an outer shell 101, a high-density polyurethane foam 102, and an inner box 103. A water storage cavity 104 is provided inside the inner box 103. An inlet pipe 2 and an outlet pipe 3 are fixedly connected to the outer surface of the inner box 103. A water level detection device 4 is provided inside the water storage cavity 104. A partition 5 is fixedly connected to the inner surface of the water storage cavity 104. An opening 6 is provided on the side inside the partition 5.
[0019] Specifically, high-density polyurethane foam 102 is disposed at the interval between the outer shell 101 and the inner box 103.
[0020] Specifically, the outer surfaces of the inlet pipe 2 and the outlet pipe 3 penetrate the high-density polyurethane foam 102 and the outer shell 101 and extend to the outside. The inner cavities of the inlet pipe 2 and the outlet pipe 3 are connected to the water storage chamber 104.
[0021] Specifically, the baffles 5 are arranged longitudinally along the inner wall of the water storage cavity 104, the central axis of the opening 6 is offset from the central axis of the baffle 5 in the width direction by a predetermined amount, and the openings 6 of adjacent baffles 5 are offset in opposite directions.
[0022] Specifically, the outer surface of the water level detection device 4 penetrates the partition 5.
[0023] Specifically, the inlet pipe 2 is located above the partition 5, and the outlet pipe 3 is located below the partition 5.
[0024] The working principle and beneficial effects of the above embodiments.
[0025] In use, the insulated water tank 1 uses a multi-layer composite insulation material as its outer shell, and is filled with high-density polyurethane foam 102 to form excellent thermal insulation performance. Multiple partitions 5 with openings 6 at specific locations are arranged inside the inner tank 103. Each partition 5 has an opening 6 in only one direction, and the openings 6 of adjacent partitions are in opposite positions. This layout forces the water to move from one layer to another in a predetermined direction, thus achieving a "unidirectional flow channel." This helps ensure uniform distribution of the fluid throughout the container and also increases the contact time between the fluid and the wall, which is beneficial for improving heat exchange efficiency. Thermal efficiency: The insulated water tank body 1 is equipped with multiple temperature and pressure sensors to collect and analyze changes in environmental parameters inside and outside the tank in real time. During operation, the temperature variable acquisition module and water level sensor acquisition module collect temperature and water level data, respectively. The data and energy information are then transmitted via the central processing unit (CPU). Energy is stored through capacitor and inductor energy storage modules. The temperature and water level sensors sense the temperature and water level information in the tank environment and transmit this information to the CPU for intelligent processing, utilizing an embedded microprocessor. The system processes the collected data and automatically adjusts the operating status of the heating element to maintain a stable set water tank temperature. A water temperature sensor inside the tank converts the water temperature into an electrical signal. When the water temperature falls below the set value, the sensor sends a signal to the controller, which then initiates the heating program to heat the water until the preset temperature is reached. Once the set temperature is reached, the controller shuts off the heat source, and the system enters a heat preservation state. A sensor is installed on the side of the inner tank to monitor the water level in real time and transmits the data to the water level sensor acquisition module. When the water level falls below a warning value, the water level sensor acquisition module automatically... When a water replenishment signal is sent, the solenoid valve on the external water supply pipeline connected to water inlet pipe 2 opens, enabling automatic water replenishment and preventing production interruptions due to low liquid levels. When the water temperature is lower than the set lower limit, the temperature variable acquisition module activates the heating device to heat the water. When the water temperature is higher than the set upper limit, the temperature variable acquisition module activates the cooling device to cool the water, thereby accurately maintaining the water temperature in the tank within the required range. For remote monitoring, the device connects to the cloud server via Wi-Fi or 4G network to view the equipment's operating status and make necessary settings modifications. It also supports integration with factory automation systems for a more flexible and convenient operating experience.
[0026] When using insulated water tanks in the food processing industry, many steps in the food processing process require hot water at specific temperatures, such as food washing, steaming, and pasteurization. Intelligent insulated water tanks can precisely control the water temperature to ensure the quality and safety of food processing. Through its precise temperature control system, the insulated water tank maintains the water temperature within a suitable range. At the same time, the sanitary-grade inner liner material and water quality monitoring system of the water tank can effectively ensure the cleanliness of the water used for food processing, avoiding food safety hazards caused by water quality issues. Through precise temperature control, it reduces the problem of unstable food quality caused by water temperature fluctuations, lowers the defect rate, and ensures water safety, avoiding food safety accidents caused by water pollution, thereby improving the company's production efficiency and brand reputation.
[0027] When using insulated water tanks in the pharmaceutical manufacturing industry, the quality and temperature requirements of water are extremely stringent. The water quality monitoring system of the insulated water tank can monitor key indicators such as microbial content and pH in the water in real time, ensuring that the production water meets the high standards of pharmaceutical production. In the concentration, drying, and sterilization of drugs, precise control of water temperature is required. Intelligent insulated water tanks, through high-precision temperature sensors and advanced controllers, can achieve precise regulation of water temperature, meeting various temperature requirements in the pharmaceutical manufacturing process. This satisfies the strict requirements of pharmaceutical production for water quality and temperature, ensuring the compliance of drug production. Precise water temperature control improves the stability of drug production processes, helps to improve the purity and efficacy of drugs, reduces the occurrence of batch defects due to water temperature and water quality issues, and lowers production costs.
[0028] When using insulated water tanks in the printing and dyeing textile industry, the dyeing and washing processes require a large amount of hot water, and the stability of the water temperature is critical. Intelligent insulated water tanks can accurately maintain the water temperature, ensuring the consistency of the dyeing effect and reducing color difference problems caused by water temperature fluctuations. At the same time, the tank's liquid level monitoring and automatic water replenishment function can ensure that the production process will not be interrupted due to insufficient water level, improving production efficiency, reducing defective products with color differences caused by unstable water temperature, improving the quality and pass rate of printing and dyeing products, and ensuring the continuity of production by automatically replenishing water, reducing downtime caused by liquid level problems, improving production efficiency, and reducing labor costs.
