Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of vacuum workstations, specifically to a vacuum workstation adapted to high-altitude environments. Background Technology

[0002] The current method of collecting and discharging domestic sewage is gradually shifting from traditional gravity drainage to vacuum drainage. Existing vacuum workstations include a vacuum tank and a vacuum pulverizing pump. The vacuum pulverizing pump creates a vacuum inside the tank to achieve vacuum drainage, and also includes a pulverizing device to prevent solid debris in the sewage from clogging the vacuum lines. In practical applications, it has been found that in high-altitude areas, due to changes in environmental factors such as air pressure, the vacuum pulverizing pump may not be able to create a sufficient vacuum inside the tank, thus failing to achieve proper vacuum drainage. Replacing the pump with a higher-powered one or increasing the number of vacuum pulverizing pumps would significantly increase the energy consumption of the vacuum workstation, raising operating costs. Utility Model Content

[0003] To address the problem that existing vacuum workstations cannot meet the needs of high-altitude areas, this invention provides a vacuum workstation adapted to the high-altitude environment.

[0004] A vacuum workstation adapted to high-altitude environments includes a sewage inlet pipe, a vacuum tank, a vacuum pulverizing and sewage discharge pump, a water-air separation tank, and a sewage discharge pipe connected in sequence. It also includes a reinforcement unit, the reinforcement unit being connected to the vacuum tank and the sewage discharge pipe via piping.

[0005] In a preferred embodiment of the vacuum workstation adapted to high-altitude environments provided by this utility model, the bottom end of the vacuum tank is provided with a slag discharge pipe.

[0006] In a preferred embodiment of the vacuum workstation adapted to high-altitude environments provided by this utility model, the enhancement unit is a vacuum pump, with its inlet pipe connected to the top of the vacuum tank and its exhaust pipe connected to the drain pipe.

[0007] It also includes one or more filters; the vacuum tank, the filters, and the air inlet of the enhancement unit are connected in sequence by hoses. It also includes a one-way valve; the one-way valve is located on the drain pipe, and the one-way valve is connected to the exhaust end of the enhancement unit by a hose.

[0008] In a preferred embodiment of the vacuum workstation adapted to high-altitude environments provided by this utility model, a main frame is further included. The vacuum tank, the vacuum pulverizing and sewage pump, and the reinforcing unit are sequentially arranged at the bottom of the main frame. The water-air separator is arranged above the vacuum pulverizing and sewage pump. The filter is arranged on the inner side wall of the main frame. The sewage inlet pipe and the sewage outlet pipe respectively penetrate and are fixed to the side wall of the main frame.

[0009] In a preferred embodiment of the vacuum workstation adapted to high-altitude environments provided by this utility model, a controller is further included, disposed on the inner side wall of the main frame and connected to the vacuum pulverizing and sewage pump and the enhancement unit circuit.

[0010] Compared with existing technologies, the vacuum workstation adapted to high-altitude environments provided by this utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0011] 1. The present invention includes an enhancement unit that assists in vacuuming when the vacuum pulverizing and sewage pump cannot achieve the target vacuum level in the vacuum tank due to environmental factors, thus solving the problem that existing vacuum workstations are not suitable for high-altitude areas.

[0012] 2. The solution of this utility model can be achieved by simple modification of existing vacuum workstations, resulting in low modification costs. This utility model only enhances the vacuum pumping capacity and only activates when the vacuum level consistently fails to meet the standard, thus consuming less energy and incurring lower operating costs.

[0015] Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of the vacuum workstation adapted to the high-altitude environment from another perspective.

[0016] Numbered in the diagram: Main frame 1, Vacuum tank 2, Vacuum crushing and sewage pump 3, Water-air separator 4, Reinforcing unit 5, Controller 6, Slag discharge port 21, Connecting pipe 22, Sewage inlet pipe 23, Pressure measuring pipe 24, Sewage discharge pipe 41, Air inlet pipe 51, Exhaust pipe 52, Filter 53, One-way valve 54. Detailed Implementation

[0017] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.

[0018] Please also refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 These are schematic diagrams of the vacuum workstation adapted to high-altitude environments provided by this utility model from two different perspectives.

[0019] The vacuum workstation adapted to the plateau environment includes a main frame 1, a vacuum tank 2, a vacuum crushing and sewage pump 3, a water-air separator 4, a reinforcement unit 5, and a controller 6.

[0020] For ease of illustration, the skin of the main frame 1 has been removed from the attached diagram, with only some components retained for structural diagram purposes. At the bottom of the main frame 1, from left to right (according to...) Figure 1 (As shown in the image, the same applies below) are arranged in sequence as follows: reinforcement unit 5, vacuum pulverizing sewage pump 3, and vacuum tank 2. The reinforcement unit 5 is appropriately raised to reduce the pipe length.

[0021] The bottom of the vacuum tank 2 is equipped with support legs to suspend the tank body. A slag discharge port 21 is provided at the bottom of the tank body; a connecting pipe 22 is provided in the middle of the side wall to connect to the inlet of the vacuum crushing and sewage pump 3; two sewage inlet pipes 23 and a pressure measuring pipe 24 are provided on the upper part of the side wall; and an air inlet pipe 51 is provided at the top of the side wall.

[0022] The inlet of the vacuum pulverizing sewage pump 3 is connected to the connecting pipe 22, and the outlet is connected to the water-air separator 4 located directly above it. The other end of the water-air separator 4 is connected to the sewage pipe 41.

[0023] A controller 6 and two filters 53 are installed on the rear side wall inside the main frame 1.

[0024] The enhancement unit 5 is a vacuum pump. The inlet end of the enhancement unit 5 is connected to the inlet pipe 51, with two filters 53 connected sequentially in the middle, and the end connected to the top of the side wall of the vacuum tank 2; the exhaust end is connected to the exhaust pipe 52, with the end connected to a one-way valve 54, which connects to the side wall of the drain pipe 41, angled towards the downstream direction of the drain pipe 41. Both the inlet pipe 51 and the exhaust pipe 52 are flexible hoses.

[0025] Two filters 53 are used to filter oil, water, and vapor from the air coming from the vacuum tank 2 to prevent damage to the enhancement unit 5. A one-way valve 54 is used to prevent backflow of odorous gases.

[0026] The controller 6 is also electrically connected to the vacuum pulverizing sewage pump 3, the enhancement unit 5, and the vacuum pressure sensor in the pressure measuring tube 24. Based on the data obtained by the vacuum pressure sensor, the controller 6 controls the opening and closing of the vacuum pulverizing sewage pump 3 and the enhancement unit 5.

[0027] In operation, the vacuum pulverizing and sewage discharge pump 3 starts first, evacuating the vacuum tank 2. Based on data obtained from the vacuum pressure sensor, if the target vacuum level cannot be reached in the vacuum tank 2 for an extended period, the controller 6 activates the enhancement unit 5 to assist in evacuation. Once the target vacuum level is reached, the controller shuts down both the vacuum pulverizing and sewage discharge pump 3 and the enhancement unit 5.

[0028] Waste enters the vacuum tank 2 through the inlet pipe 23. After simple treatment in the vacuum tank 2, it is discharged through the outlet pipe 41 via the connecting pipe 22, the vacuum pulverizing and sewage pump 3, and the water-air separator 4. Waste deposited at the bottom of the vacuum tank 2 is periodically cleaned from the slag outlet 21.

[0029] If the vacuum level in vacuum tank 2 is insufficient, vacuum crushing and sewage pump 3 will be started first. If the vacuum level is still not up to standard, the enhancement unit 5 will be started to assist in vacuuming.

[0030] The above description is merely an embodiment of this utility model and does not limit the patent scope of this utility model. Any equivalent structural or procedural transformations made using the content of this utility model specification, or direct or indirect applications in other related technical fields, are similarly included within the patent protection scope of this utility model.
