Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of filtration devices, and relates to pre-filter devices, and in particular to an intelligent sewage discharge mechanism for a pre-filter. Background Technology

[0002] A pre-filter, also known as a pre-water purifier, is primarily used to filter impurities from water. Pre-filters typically have a "T" shaped structure, with the inlet and outlet at the left and right ends of the top horizontal section, the main body and internal cylindrical filter screen at the bottom vertical section, and the drain outlet at the very bottom. Because impurities gradually accumulate in pre-filters during use, they need to be drained. This has led to extensive research and the development of various solutions.

[0003] In existing technologies, sewage is typically discharged by manually opening the drain valve. This method can lead to water quality degradation due to insufficient discharge or infrequent discharge. Furthermore, manual discharge is inconvenient and provides a poor user experience. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to address the above-mentioned problems by providing an intelligent sewage discharge mechanism for a pre-filter that can automatically discharge sewage.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: a pre-filter intelligent sewage discharge mechanism, including a sewage discharge electrically controlled valve installed on the sewage discharge port of the pre-filter, a TDS sensor and a flow sensor installed on the outlet of the pre-filter, and the sewage discharge electrically controlled valve, the TDS sensor and the flow sensor being electrically connected to a microcontroller.

[0006] A TDS sensor is used to obtain the TDS value of water passing through the outlet.

[0007] A flow sensor is used to measure the instantaneous pulse frequency and pulse period of water flow at the outlet.

[0008] The TDS value of the water at the outlet is obtained by a TDS sensor, and the instantaneous pulse frequency and pulse period of the water flow at the outlet are obtained by a flow sensor. The data of both are transmitted to a microcontroller, which calculates the total clean water volume and determines the sewage discharge time based on the TDS value and the total clean water volume, thereby achieving the effect of precise automatic sewage discharge.

[0009] The total net water volume is calculated based on the instantaneous pulse frequency and pulse period, both of which are existing technologies.

[0010] In the aforementioned intelligent pre-filter sewage discharge mechanism, a water outlet pipe is provided on the water outlet, and the TDS sensor and flow sensor are installed on the water outlet pipe. The TDS sensor can monitor the TDS value of the water passing through the water outlet in real time, that is, the total amount of dissolved solids in the water. The flow sensor can measure the instantaneous pulse frequency and pulse period of the water flow.

[0011] In the aforementioned intelligent pre-filter sewage discharge mechanism, the TDS sensor is connected to the outlet pipe via a first detachable structure. The design of the first detachable structure allows the TDS sensor to be easily installed on the outlet pipe, and also facilitates disassembly and maintenance when needed.

[0012] In the aforementioned intelligent pre-filter sewage discharge mechanism, the first detachable structure includes a threaded interface on the outlet pipe that allows water flow in the outlet pipe to contact the TDS sensor. The TDS sensor is screwed to the threaded interface via a threaded connector. A sealing ring seals the threaded connector and the threaded interface, ensuring a tight connection and preventing water leakage, thereby guaranteeing that the TDS sensor can accurately measure water quality.

[0013] In the aforementioned intelligent pre-filter sewage discharge mechanism, the flow sensor is connected to the outlet pipe via a second detachable structure. The impeller of the Hall effect flow sensor is installed inside the outlet pipe. The detachable structure allows for the selection and installation of different types of flow sensors according to actual needs.

[0014] In the aforementioned intelligent pre-filter sewage discharge mechanism, the second detachable structure includes a flow sensor mounting base mounted on the flow sensor. The flow sensor mounting base secures the flow sensor with at least two bolts. The flow sensor and the flow sensor mounting base are sealed with a sealing ring. Fixing the flow sensor mounting base to the outlet pipe or related structure with at least two bolts ensures the stability of the flow sensor installation and avoids loosening or detachment caused by water flow impact or vibration.

[0015] In the aforementioned intelligent pre-filter discharge mechanism, the flow sensor includes any one of a Hall effect flow sensor, ultrasonic flow meter, electromagnetic flow meter, vortex flow meter, or Coriolis flow meter. The use of multiple types of flow sensors in the intelligent pre-filter discharge mechanism can adapt to different flow rate ranges and operating environments, enhancing the system's adaptability and flexibility.

[0016] In the aforementioned intelligent pre-filter drainage mechanism, the filter includes a connector whose bottom is connected to a filter bottle. The filter bottle contains a filter assembly, and a drainage electrically controlled valve is located at the bottom of the filter bottle. This valve includes a valve body and a manual / electric integrated controller. The filter employs an integrated design, resulting in a compact structure. The manual / electric integrated controller allows the filter to automatically or manually perform drainage operations as needed, improving the overall flexibility and reliability of the system.

[0017] In the aforementioned intelligent sewage discharge mechanism for the pre-filter, the drive end of the dual-purpose (manual and electric) controller is connected to the valve core of the valve body. The dual-purpose controller is fixed to the valve body housing via a third detachable structure and is electrically connected to a microcontroller. The third detachable structure includes several bolts securing the valve body and the dual-purpose controller. The electrical connection between the dual-purpose controller and the microcontroller allows the microcontroller to automatically control the opening and closing of the sewage discharge valve, achieving automatic control of the sewage discharge process. The bolted connection design allows the dual-purpose controller to adapt to different models and specifications of valve bodies, increasing the equipment's versatility and flexibility.

[0018] In the aforementioned intelligent sewage discharge mechanism of the pre-filter, a first annular groove is provided on the outer wall of the outlet. One end of the outlet pipe is fitted onto the outlet, and two radially symmetrical locking holes are provided on that end of the outlet pipe, which can communicate with the first annular groove. The two ends of a U-shaped pipe lock are inserted into the two locking holes, and the U-shaped pipe lock extends into the first annular groove. At least one sealing ring is provided between the outlet pipe and the outlet, and the sealing ring is embedded in a sealing ring groove on the outer wall of the outlet and / or the inner wall of the outlet pipe. Providing a sealing ring between the outer wall of the outlet and the outlet pipe can further enhance the sealing performance of the system and prevent malfunctions.

[0019] Compared to existing technologies, the advantages of this pre-filter's tool storage structure are: 1. The sensor is located at the outlet, ensuring accurate detection results. 2. It is equipped with a microcontroller for automatic and precise adjustment of wastewater discharge. 3. It employs multiple detachable structural designs for easy maintenance, replacement, and installation. Attached Figure Description

The microcontroller 3 then controls the opening and closing of the sewage discharge electronic valve 42 to achieve precise and automatic sewage discharge.

[0029] The formula for calculating the total net water volume based on the instantaneous pulse frequency and pulse period is: Total net water volume L = Instantaneous pulse frequency L / min × Pulse period (s) / 60.
