Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of greywater storage, and in particular to a greywater storage system for rural sewage treatment. Background Technology

[0002] Greywater generally refers to reclaimed water, which is wastewater or rainwater that has been properly treated to meet certain water quality standards and usage requirements, making it suitable for beneficial use. While the source water quality of greywater generally does not meet tap water standards, it is higher than the effluent standards of sewage treatment plants and requires further treatment to meet water use standards. Greywater can be used for farmland irrigation, urban greening, toilet flushing, road cleaning, replenishing cooling equipment, and municipal miscellaneous water use. my country currently has a huge amount of greywater used, and this amount will increase rapidly with urban development and increased water conservation awareness. Greywater treatment processes generally include pretreatment, disinfection, and filtration. Depending on the intended use and reuse requirements, the pretreatment process and disinfection methods vary. Common greywater treatment processes include activated carbon adsorption, reverse osmosis, and ultraviolet disinfection. In short, greywater is a renewable water resource that, after proper treatment, can be used for various purposes. With increasing water conservation awareness and rising water demand, greywater usage will continue to increase. Since greywater needs to be temporarily stored during treatment, various storage facilities, such as storage tanks, are required.

[0003] During the storage process, the storage tank needs to be kept sealed at all times. After we fill the storage tank with water, we may forget to close the water inlet or the water inlet may not be closed tightly. This will cause the greywater to evaporate and be discharged, and other impurities to be mixed into the greywater. Utility Model Content

[0024] To make the above-mentioned objectives, features and advantages of this utility model more apparent and understandable, the specific embodiments of this utility model will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0025] Many specific details are set forth in the following description in order to provide a full understanding of the present invention. However, the present invention may also be implemented in other ways different from those described herein. Those skilled in the art can make similar extensions without departing from the spirit of the present invention. Therefore, the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.

[0026] Secondly, the term "an embodiment" or "embodiment" as used herein refers to a specific feature, structure, or characteristic that may be included in at least one implementation of the present invention. The phrase "in one embodiment" appearing in different places in this specification does not necessarily refer to the same embodiment, nor is it a single or selective embodiment that excludes other embodiments.

[0027] Secondly, this utility model is described in detail with reference to the schematic diagrams. When describing the embodiments of this utility model, for ease of explanation, the cross-sectional views illustrating the device structure may be partially enlarged, not adhering to the usual scale. Furthermore, the schematic diagrams are merely examples and should not limit the scope of protection of this utility model. In addition, actual manufacturing should include the three-dimensional spatial dimensions of length, width, and depth. Example 1

[0028] Reference Figure 1 The first embodiment of this utility model provides a rural sewage treatment greywater storage system, which includes a water storage tank 100, which includes a water inlet 101 disposed on the side wall, a diversion pipe 102 disposed through the water inlet 101, and a drain hole 103 disposed on the side away from the water inlet 101.

[0029] Furthermore, both the water inlet 101 and the drain 103 are located at the top, and the drain pipe 102 is fixedly connected to the water inlet 101.

[0030] The greywater can reach the water storage tank 100 through the inlet hole 101 in the pipe 102. When the water in the water storage tank 100 reaches the required level, the inlet hole 101 on the water storage tank 100 can be closed to achieve a sealing treatment, prevent water leakage and sewage discharge, and also prevent the water in the water storage tank 100 from coming into contact with other media and causing evaporation or other phenomena. Example 2

[0031] Reference Figures 1-5This is the second embodiment of the present invention. Unlike the previous embodiment, this embodiment also includes a connecting component 200, which is connected to the input end of the drainage pipe 102. It includes a sealing component 201 fixedly connected to the drainage pipe 102 and a connecting component 202 on the side of the sealing component 203 away from the water inlet hole 101. The sealing component 201 includes a sealing tube 201a. The inner ring surface of the sealing tube 201a is connected to the outer ring surface of the drainage pipe 102 by a thread, and sealing rings are provided at both ends of the thread groove.

[0032] Furthermore, the sealing tube 201a includes, from the side closest to the drainage tube 102 to the side furthest away, a filter plate 201a-1, a first telescopic spring 201a-2, a first sealing ball 201a-3, and a baffle 201a-4. The filter plate 201a-1 can be inserted into the drainage tube 102 and is circumferentially sealed. The filter plate 201a-1 extends outward in an arc shape from the center toward the first telescopic spring 201a-2. Several sets of filter holes 201a-11 are penetrating the filter plate 201a-1.

[0033] Furthermore, the first telescopic spring 201a-2 is fixedly connected to the filter plate 201a-1, and the other end of the first telescopic spring 201a-2 is fixedly connected to the first sealing ball 201a-3. The baffle 201a-4 has a through hole 201a-41 in the center. The diameter of the first sealing ball 201a-3 is larger than the diameter of the through hole 201a-41. When the first telescopic spring 201a-2 is released, the first sealing ball 201a-3 fits and seals with the through hole 201a-41.

[0034] Furthermore, the sealing component 201 also includes a locking nut 201b on the side of the sealing tube 201a away from the water inlet 101. The locking nut 201b includes a rotating groove 201b-1. A flange 201a-5 is fixedly provided on the outer circumferential surface of the sealing tube 201a. The flange 201a-5 restricts the horizontal movement of the locking nut 201b through the rotating groove 201b-1. The connecting component 202 is threadedly connected to the sealing component 201 through the locking nut 201b. The connecting component 202 includes a connecting tube 202a. Both ends of the connecting tube 202a are provided with water channels 202a-1. The connecting component 202 also includes a second telescopic spring 202a-2, a second sealing ball 202a-3, and a connector 202a-4 inserted into the water channel 202a-1 near the sealing tube 201a.

[0035] Specifically, the two ends of the second telescopic spring 202a-2 are fixedly connected to the side wall of the connecting pipe 202a relative to one end of the first telescopic spring 201a-2, and the other end is fixedly connected to the second sealing ball 202a-3. The connecting piece 202a-4 has through holes at both ends and water inlet holes 202a-41 on its circumferential side wall. The diameter of the second sealing ball 202a-3 is equal to the diameter of the first sealing ball 201a-3, and both are larger than the diameter of the through holes on both sides of the connecting piece 202a-4. The first telescopic spring 201a-2 and the first sealing ball 201a-3 are the same as the second telescopic spring and the second sealing ball 202a-3.

[0036] Specifically, the sealing tube 201a can be fixed to the drain tube 102 via a threaded connection, and a sealing ring can be provided inside the thread to maintain better sealing performance. During this process, the filter plate 201a-1 will fit and seal against the circumferential sidewall of the drain tube 102. When it is necessary to add greywater to the water storage tank 100, the connecting tube 202a can be inserted into the sealing tube 201a. During the insertion process, the end of the connecting piece 202a-4 will first pass through the through hole 201a-41 on the baffle 201a-4 and then contact the first sealing ball 201a-3. At this point, both sets of telescopic springs are in a completely sealed state, with the sealing ball pressed against the hole before contact. When the connector 202a-4 contacts the first sealing ball 201a-3, it pushes the first sealing ball 201a-3 and squeezes the first telescopic spring 201a-2. Since the two sets of telescopic springs and the sealing ball are identical, the first telescopic spring 201a-2 will exert a reaction force on the second telescopic spring 202a-2. Both sets of sealing balls will move backward due to the contraction of the telescopic springs. The through hole 201a-41 and the water channel 202a-1 open and disengage from the sealing ball. The outer ring surface of the connecting pipe 202a has a groove that mates with the locking nut 201b. The locking nut 201b then rotates the groove on the connecting pipe 202a, allowing the connecting pipe 202a to... When the sealing pipe 201a is locked, water can flow through the hole in the connecting pipe 202a, through the gap between the second sealing ball 202a-3 and the water channel 202a-1, and then through the water inlet hole 202a-41 into the gap between the first sealing ball 201a-3 and the hole 201a-41, reaching the position of the filter plate 201a-1. At this time, small particles can be filtered, and finally enter the water storage tank 100 for collection. Note that the opposite surfaces of the connecting pipe 202a and the sealing pipe 201a on the side closest to each other can be set as a mating arc structure, which can increase the contact area and more effectively prevent water leakage. After the water collection is completed, the connecting pipe 202a and the sealing pipe 201a can be disassembled by rotating the locking nut 201b in the opposite direction.
