Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of sewage pipe network technology, and in particular to an intelligent sewage pipe network inspection well. Background Technology

[0002] Inspection wells are crucial facilities in sewage pipe networks used for inspecting, maintaining, and clearing pipes. They are typically located at key points such as pipe intersections, turns, diameter changes, or slope alterations to allow personnel easy access for inspection and maintenance. Traditional sewage pipe network inspection wells have limited functionality, offering only basic monitoring capabilities with limited monitoring methods. They primarily rely on sensors to monitor data such as sewage quality and level. Personnel can only indirectly understand the operation within the inspection well through this data, lacking intuitive visual monitoring methods. This approach has several shortcomings in practical applications: Firstly, data monitoring cannot fully reflect the actual situation within the inspection well; for example, key information such as the location and degree of blockage within the pipe, and the form of debris accumulation, is difficult to obtain accurately. Secondly, when a blockage occurs requiring cleaning, existing inspection wells cannot proactively alert personnel in a timely manner, resulting in delays in cleaning operations and impacting the overall operational efficiency and stability of the sewage pipe network.

[0028] Example 1

[0029] As shown in the figure, an intelligent sewage pipe network inspection well includes a lower wall 1, a sliding guide rail 2, an upper wall 3, a sliding base 4, a vision component 5, a manhole cover 6, a first hydraulic cylinder 8, a monitoring host 9, an inspection platform 10, a sensor 11, a cleaning component 12, a first pipe 13, a second partition wall 16, and a second pipe 17.

[0030] The top surface of the manhole lower wall 1 is provided with a manhole upper wall 3; the right end of the manhole upper wall 3 is open and a manhole cover 6 is installed; a detection platform 10 is provided on the lower right side of the manhole lower wall 1, a second pipe 17 is provided at the front end of the lower middle part, a first pipe 13 is provided at the rear end of the lower middle part, and a second partition wall 16 is provided on the lower left side; a sliding guide rail 2 is installed on the bottom surface of the manhole lower wall 1; the upper end of the sliding base 4 is connected to the sliding guide rail 2, the lower two sides are respectively installed with a first hydraulic cylinder 8, and a vision component 5 is installed in the lower middle part; the bottom of the hydraulic cylinder 8 is connected to the sliding base 4, and the output end is connected to the cleaning component 12; the monitoring host 9 is installed in the middle right part of the manhole lower wall 1, above the detection platform 10; the sensor 11 is located between the first pipe 13 and the second pipe 17; the sensor 11 and the vision component 5 are respectively connected to the monitoring host 9.

[0031] Next, the working principle of this embodiment will be described in detail so that those skilled in the art can better understand this utility model:

[0032] The lower wall 1 and upper wall 3 of the inspection well are the outer walls of the inspection well, forming the internal space of the inspection well. The sensor 11 is used to monitor the sewage quality, water level, and other information between the first pipe 13 and the second pipe 17, and transmits the data to the monitoring host 9. The monitoring host 9 is a common intelligent monitoring system for drainage networks (including a main control chip, a wireless communication module, and a battery; the main control chip processes data and transmits monitoring data externally through the wireless communication module; the battery provides power to the main control chip and the wireless communication module). It analyzes and processes the data, and issues an alarm if abnormalities in sewage quality or water level are detected. The cleaning component 12 is placed between the first pipe 13 and the second pipe 17 to clean the debris and silt deposited between them. The vision component 5 is installed above the cleaning component 12 to photograph the accumulation of debris and silt inside the cleaning component 12.

[0033] During operation, sensor 11 monitors information such as sewage quality and water level between the first pipe 13 and the second pipe 17, and transmits the detected monitoring data to the monitoring host 9. The monitoring host 9 then uploads the data via a wireless communication module. The vision component 5 captures image information between the first pipe 13 and the second pipe 17 and transmits the detected image information to the monitoring host 9. The monitoring host 9 then uploads the data via a wireless communication module. Workers can obtain information about the interior of the inspection well by receiving the detected monitoring data and image data. When workers observe a significant amount of debris and silt deposited between the first pipe 13 and the second pipe 17, they send a command to the monitoring host 9. The monitoring host 9 then activates the first hydraulic cylinder 8, which lifts the cleaning component 12. The cleaning component 12 removes the debris and silt, and the sliding base 4 moves the first hydraulic cylinder 8 and the cleaning component 12 together to the left end of the lower wall 1 of the inspection well. The cleaning component 12 is then placed in front of the second partition wall 16 at the left end of the lower wall 1 of the inspection well, thus completing the cleaning work.

[0034] Example 2

[0035] The difference between this embodiment and embodiment 1 is that the vision component 5 includes a camera and a lighting lamp; the camera and the lighting lamp are respectively installed at the lower middle part of the sliding base 4.

[0036] The camera and the lighting are wired to the monitoring host 9. During operation, the camera can capture clearer images of the area between the first pipe 13 and the second pipe 17, while the lighting provides illumination in low-light conditions, ensuring image quality. This allows staff to more accurately observe the debris and silt deposited between the first pipe 13 and the second pipe 17 within the inspection well, thus more precisely determining whether cleaning operations are needed and the specific location and scope of cleaning. This better assists in the monitoring and cleaning of the entire sewage network inspection wells.

[0037] The working principle of this embodiment is the same as that of Embodiment 1.

[0038] Example 3

[0039] The difference between this embodiment and Embodiment 2 is that the cleaning assembly 12 includes a second hydraulic cylinder 15, a mounting frame 19, a fixing frame 20, a connecting rope 24, a filter screen, a connecting rod 25, and a fixing plate 26. The mounting frame 19 is a rectangular frame, and the output end of the first hydraulic cylinder 8 is connected to the top edge of the mounting frame 19. The second hydraulic cylinder 15 is installed in the middle of the mounting frame 19, and the fixing frame 20 is installed on the outside of the second hydraulic cylinder 15. The connecting rod 25 is vertically arranged, with its upper end connected to the bottom edge of the mounting frame 19 and its lower end extending downward. The fixing plate 26 is horizontally arranged below the second hydraulic cylinder 15, with its top surface connected to the output end of the second hydraulic cylinder 15 and its bottom surface provided with the connecting rope 24. The upper end of the connecting rope 24 is connected to the bottom surface of the fixing plate 26, and its lower end extends downward. The filter screen is horizontally arranged between the connecting rope 24 and the connecting rod 25. One end of the filter screen is connected to the connecting rope 24, and the other end is connected to the connecting rod 25.

[0040] The mounting bracket 19 is a rectangular frame to avoid obstructing the camera's field of view and facilitate image capture. The filter screen, used to hold debris and silt, is hung below the mounting bracket 19. The second hydraulic cylinder 15 is used to lift and lower the filter screen. When the filter screen is between the first pipe 13 and the second pipe 17, the output end of the second hydraulic cylinder 15 is in the retracted state, and the filter screen is horizontally positioned. When the filter screen is lifted by the first hydraulic cylinder 8 along with the mounting bracket 19, the filter screen carries away the deposited debris and silt, moving it to the front of the second partition wall 16. The output end of the second hydraulic cylinder 15 then extends, lowering one end of the filter screen, causing the debris and silt to fall, thus completing the debris removal process.

[0041] The working principle of this embodiment is the same as that of Embodiment 1.

[0042] Example 4

[0043] The difference between this embodiment and embodiment 3 is that the filter screen includes a first filter screen 21, a second filter screen 22, and a third filter screen 23; the first filter screen 21, the second filter screen 22, and the third filter screen 23 are horizontally arranged between the connecting rope 24 and the connecting rod 25; one end of the first filter screen 21, the second filter screen 22, and the third filter screen 23 are respectively connected to the connecting rope 24, and the other end is respectively connected to the connecting rod 25; the first filter screen 21 is located above the second filter screen 22, and the second filter screen 22 is located above the third filter screen 23.

[0044] During the cleaning process, the multi-layered filter system allows for more detailed filtration and stratified collection of deposited debris and sludge. Different filter screens can intercept debris of different sizes and types, making the cleaning work more thorough and effectively separating and removing various types of debris and sludge from the sewage. This further optimizes the cleaning function of the sewage pipe network inspection wells and improves the operational stability and sewage discharge capacity of the entire system.

[0045] The working principle of this embodiment is the same as that of Embodiment 1.

[0046] Example 5

[0047] The difference between this embodiment and embodiment 4 is that the sensor 11 includes a water quality monitoring sensor and a water level sensor; the water quality monitoring sensor and the water level sensor are respectively connected to the monitoring host 9.

[0048] During operation, water quality monitoring sensors detect the water quality of sewage between the first pipe 13 and the second pipe 17, including indicators such as pH, dissolved oxygen content, and pollutant concentration; water level sensors measure the sewage water level. Both types of sensors transmit the detected data to the monitoring host 9 in real time, where the host analyzes and processes the data. The monitoring host 9 uploads the data via a wireless communication module, allowing staff to receive this monitoring data promptly and gain a comprehensive understanding of the sewage conditions inside the inspection well. This enables more accurate assessment of the sewage network's operational status, allowing for timely maintenance and cleaning measures to ensure the stable operation of the sewage network system and water quality safety.

[0049] The working principle of this embodiment is the same as that of Embodiment 1.

[0050] Example 6

[0051] The difference between this embodiment and embodiment 5 is that it also includes a first partition wall 14; the second partition walls 16 are respectively arranged on the front and rear sides of the lower left side of the inspection well wall 1, and the first partition wall 14 is arranged between the two second partition walls 16.

[0052] The first partition wall 14 and the second partition wall 16 together serve to separate the internal space of the inspection well, dividing the lower left side of the inspection well into a relatively independent area. The cleaning component 12 places debris and silt in front of the second partition wall 16 and at the left end of the first partition wall 14, with the first partition wall 14 serving as a separator.

[0053] The working principle of this embodiment is the same as that of Embodiment 1.

[0054] Example 7

[0055] The difference between this embodiment and embodiment 6 is that it also includes a ladder 7; the ladder 7 is located at the right end of the lower wall 1 and the upper wall 3 of the manhole, below the manhole cover 6.

[0056] During operation, staff need to regularly maintain and repair the equipment inside the inspection well, as well as conduct manual inspections. Ladder 7 provides staff with a convenient and safe passage, allowing them to quickly and safely access the lower part of the inspection well. When maintenance of equipment such as the monitoring host 9, sensor 11, and cleaning components 12 is required, or when manual cleaning of sediment inside the inspection well is needed, staff can easily descend to the lower part of the inspection well via ladder 7 to access the various equipment and pipelines and efficiently complete various maintenance and inspection tasks.

[0057] The working principle of this embodiment is the same as that of Embodiment 1.

[0058] Example 8

[0059] The difference between this embodiment and embodiment 7 is that it also includes a partition net 18; the partition net 18 is installed on the outer side of the connecting rod 25.

[0060] When the cleaning component 12 is driven by the first hydraulic cylinder 8 to perform cleaning operations, the screen 18 can play an additional filtering and interception role, preventing debris and sludge from leaving from both ends of the screen.

[0061] The working principle of this embodiment is the same as that of Embodiment 1.

[0062] In summary, this invention not only possesses conventional monitoring functions, using sensors to monitor wastewater quality and level in real time, but also issues timely alarms upon detecting any anomalies. This allows staff to be informed of blockages in the inspection well immediately. Furthermore, it provides a visual understanding of the real-time conditions inside the inspection well through image monitoring. Compared to traditional inspection wells, staff no longer need to rely solely on data to determine the well's operational status; image monitoring offers more intuitive and comprehensive information, helping to more accurately grasp the well's condition.

[0063] Furthermore, the equipped cleaning components can perform timely cleaning operations based on the detected blockages, under the control of the monitoring host. Compared with traditional manual cleaning methods, this method is not only more efficient but also reduces the risks of manual operation, achieving automation and intelligence in manhole cleaning.
