Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of building water supply and drainage technology, and more specifically, to an intelligent water seal all-time water replenishment system. Background Technology
[0002] Currently, in the field of building water supply and drainage, in order to avoid the odor of overflowing sewers, it is often necessary to install water traps in sewer pipes. As a result of the installation of water traps, some water will remain in the water trap, thus forming a water seal and an air barrier to prevent harmful gases from the sewers from entering the room.
[0003] However, when the water seal is damaged for various reasons, the water in the pipe's trap will decrease to the point that a water seal cannot be formed, or if water is not drained into the trap for a long time to replenish it, the water in the trap will evaporate completely, leading to foul odors. Currently, whether there is enough water in the trap can only be determined manually by checking each trap one by one. When inspectors find that the water trap in the pipe has no water seal, foul odors are usually already present.
[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to propose an intelligent water seal all-time water replenishment system to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content
[0005] To overcome at least one of the defects (deficiencies) of the prior art, this utility model provides an intelligent water seal all-time water replenishment system.
[0006] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the technical solution of this utility model is as follows: an intelligent water seal all-time water replenishment system, including a solenoid valve system, a water replenishment piping system, and a special water replenishment tank for replenishing water at the water seal.
[0007] The solenoid valve system is installed on the dedicated water supply tank, and one end of the water supply piping system is connected to the dedicated water supply tank, while the other end is connected to the water seal.
[0008] The dedicated water supply tank is equipped with modular adjustable water distribution units corresponding to each water seal. These modular adjustable water distribution units are connected to a solenoid valve system. By installing these units and the solenoid valve system within the tank, the solenoid valve system can detect the water level at each water seal. When the water level at a water seal falls below a set value, the solenoid valve system controls the modular adjustable water distribution units to replenish water to the water seal with the low water level. In practical applications, the solenoid valve system can be remotely controlled and can also be set independently according to local climate and personal habits to maintain the normal function of various products with water seals.
[0009] Furthermore, the modular adjustable water distribution unit includes a water distribution tank, a partition plate, a tipping bucket, and a tilting shaft;
[0010] The water distribution tank is installed inside a dedicated water replenishment tank.
[0011] The partition plate divides the water distribution tank into multiple independent water distribution chambers, and the tipping bucket is rotatably installed in the water distribution chamber via a tipping shaft;
[0012] The bottom of the water distribution chamber is provided with a water outlet, which is connected to the water seal one by one through a water supply piping system;
[0013] The water distribution tank is equipped with an inlet pipe with multiple branches, and each branch of the inlet pipe is connected to an independent water distribution chamber.
[0014] Each branch of the inlet pipe is equipped with an inlet control valve, which is connected to a solenoid valve system. A partition divides the water distribution tank into multiple independent water distribution chambers, ensuring each water seal has its own chamber. When the water level at a water seal is too low, dries up, or is low due to minor damage, water needs to be replenished promptly. The amount and timing of replenishment can be set according to actual needs. When water replenishment is required, a sensor at the water seal sends a signal to the control chip, which then controls the inlet control valve on the inlet pipe. When the inlet pipe and its inlet control valve are opened, water is supplied. Since there is a tipping bucket for water storage in the water distribution chamber, the tipping bucket continuously stores water. When the water is full, the tipping bucket will flip over to pour out the water, which can replenish the water seal at regular intervals. The duration of the time interval can be adjusted by the solenoid valve. The solenoid valve can be remotely controlled, and the water replenishment frequency and amount can be set independently according to the local climate and personal habits to ensure that various products with water seals maintain normal function. The water seal may also not be equipped with a water level sensor, and the water replenishment can be set by the solenoid valve system at regular intervals. All of these are within the protection scope of this utility model.
[0015] Furthermore, the tipping bucket is in the shape of an inclined triangle. In practical applications, the tipping bucket can also be set in other shapes, all of which are within the protection scope of this utility model. In this utility model, the tipping bucket can also be omitted for water replenishment control, and the water replenishment of each modular cavity in the water tank can be carried out by a solenoid valve system at regular intervals and in quantitative quantities, all of which are within the protection scope of this utility model.
[0016] Furthermore, the solenoid valve system includes a power supply, a control chip, a buzzer, an indicator light, a remote connection control port, and multiple solenoid valves;
[0017] The power supply, buzzer, indicator light, remote connection control port, and multiple solenoid valves are connected to the control chip. The indicator light can display the current working status of the solenoid valve system as needed, while the buzzer can serve as an alarm in case of an accident. The power supply provides a stable power source to the control chip, and the multiple solenoid valves can control the corresponding modular adjustable water distribution unit, thereby achieving intelligent water replenishment.
[0018] Furthermore, the remote connection control port can be a WIFI connection port, a Bluetooth connection port, or a gateway connection port. In practical applications, different types of remote connection control ports can be set as needed, so that people can remotely control the modular adjustable water distribution unit.
[0019] Furthermore, a water level sensor is installed inside the water seal. The water level sensor is connected to the control chip. By setting the water level sensor, when the water level at the water seal is lower than the normal value, the water level sensor sends a signal to the solenoid valve system. The solenoid valve system controls the corresponding modular adjustable water distribution unit to replenish water to the water seal. In practical applications, the solenoid valve system can be remotely controlled, and the water replenishment frequency and amount can also be independently set according to the local climate and personal habits to ensure that various products with water seals maintain normal function.
[0020] Furthermore, the water seal can be a water trap in a floor drain, a water trap in a central manifold, a P-type water trap in a pipe, an S-type water trap in a pipe, a water trap in a bathtub, or a water trap in a shower room. Of course, in practical applications, it can also be used in other water traps, all of which are easily found by those skilled in the art.
[0021] Furthermore, the water replenishment tank is equipped with a drain hole and an overflow hole. The drain hole is used to drain the liquid in the water replenishment tank during cleaning, which is convenient for cleaning. The overflow hole is used to drain excess water from the water replenishment tank, reducing the risk of failure in the water inlet pipe and water replenishment piping system.
[0022] Furthermore, the water replenishment piping system is a water replenishment connection pipe. In practical applications, the water replenishment piping system can also be other connection devices, all of which fall within the protection scope of this utility model.
[0023] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model's technical solution are:
[0024] The intelligent water seal all-time water replenishment system disclosed in this utility model is equipped with a modular adjustable water distribution unit and a solenoid valve system in a dedicated water replenishment tank. The solenoid valve system can detect the water level at each water seal. When the water level at a water seal is lower than the set value, the solenoid valve system will control the modular adjustable water distribution unit to replenish water to the water seal with the low water level. In practical applications, the solenoid valve system can be remotely controlled, and the water replenishment frequency and amount can also be independently set according to the local climate and personal habits to ensure that various products with water seals maintain normal function.

[0031] The accompanying drawings are for illustrative purposes only and should not be construed as limiting the scope of this patent. To better illustrate this embodiment, some components in the drawings may be omitted, enlarged, or reduced, and do not represent the actual dimensions of the product. It is understandable to those skilled in the art that some well-known structures and their descriptions may be omitted in the drawings.
[0032] In the description of this utility model, it should be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "installation" and "connection" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; they can be described as the internal communication between two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model based on the specific circumstances. The technical solution of this utility model will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.
[0033] like Figure 1 As shown, an intelligent water seal all-time water replenishment system includes a solenoid valve system 1, a water replenishment piping system 2, and a dedicated water replenishment tank 4 for replenishing water to the water seal 3. The solenoid valve system 1 is installed on the dedicated water replenishment tank 4. One end of the water replenishment piping system 2 is connected to the dedicated water replenishment tank 4, and the other end is connected to the water seal 3. The dedicated water replenishment tank 4 is equipped with modular adjustable water distribution units 5 corresponding to each water seal 3. The modular adjustable water distribution units 5 are connected to the solenoid valve system 1. By setting the modular adjustable water distribution units 5 and the solenoid valve system 1 in the dedicated water replenishment tank 4, the solenoid valve system 1 can detect the water level of each water seal 3. When the water level of the water seal 3 is lower than the set value, the solenoid valve system 1 will control the modular adjustable water distribution units 5 to replenish water to the water seal 3 with the low water level. In practical applications, the solenoid valve system 1 can be remotely controlled, and the water replenishment frequency and amount can also be independently set according to the local climate and personal habits to ensure that various products with water seals maintain normal function.
[0034] like Figure 2-4As shown, the modular adjustable water distribution unit 5 includes a water distribution tank 6, a partition 7, a tipping bucket 8, and a tilting shaft 9; the water distribution tank 6 is installed inside a dedicated water supply tank 4; the partition 7 divides the water distribution tank 6 into multiple independent water distribution chambers 10, and the tipping bucket 8 is rotatably installed in the water distribution chamber 10 via the tilting shaft 9; the bottom of the water distribution chamber 10 is provided with a water outlet 11, which is connected to the water seal 3 one by one through the water supply piping system 2; the water distribution tank 6 is provided with an inlet pipe 13 with multiple branches 12, and the branches 12 on the inlet pipe 13 are... Each water inlet pipe 13 is connected to an independent water distribution chamber 10. Each branch of the inlet pipe 13 is equipped with an inlet control valve 14, which is connected to the solenoid valve system 1. Through the partition plate 7, the water distribution tank 6 is divided into multiple independent water distribution chambers 10, ensuring that each water seal 3 has its own water distribution chamber 10. When the water level at the water seal 3 is too low, dry, or low due to minor damage, water needs to be replenished to the water seal 3 promptly. The amount and timing of water replenishment can be set according to actual needs. At this time, the sensor at the water seal 3 sends a signal to the control chip, which then controls the inlet control valve 14 on the inlet pipe 13. This increases the water flow through the inlet pipe 13 and its control valve 14. Since a water-storing bucket 8 is installed in the water distribution chamber 10, as the bucket 8 continuously stores water, it flips over to empty the water when full, thus periodically replenishing the water seal. The duration of this periodic replenishment can be adjusted using the solenoid valve 20, which can be remotely controlled. The water replenishment frequency and volume can be independently set according to local climate and personal habits to ensure that various water-sealed products maintain normal function. In this utility model, the tipping bucket 8 is in an inclined triangular shape. In practical applications, the tipping bucket 8 can also be set into other shapes, all of which are within the protection scope of this utility model. In this utility model, the tipping bucket 8 can also be omitted for water replenishment control, and the solenoid valve system can replenish water to each modular cavity in the water tank at regular intervals and in a quantitative manner, all of which are within the protection scope of this utility model. The water seal 3 can also omit the water level sensor, and the solenoid valve system 1 can set the water replenishment at regular intervals, all of which are within the protection scope of this utility model.
[0035] like Figure 5As shown, the solenoid valve system 1 includes a power supply 15, a control chip 16, a buzzer 17, an indicator light 18, a remote connection control port 19, and multiple solenoid valves 20. The power supply 15, buzzer 17, indicator light 18, remote connection control port 19, and multiple solenoid valves 20 are respectively connected to the control chip 16. The indicator light 18 can display the current working status of the solenoid valve system 1 as needed, while the buzzer 17 can serve as an alarm in case of an accident. The power supply 15 can provide a stable power supply to the system, and the multiple solenoid valves 20 can control the corresponding modular adjustable water distribution unit 5, thereby realizing intelligent water replenishment. In this utility model, the remote connection control port 19 is a WIFI connection port, a Bluetooth connection port, or a gateway connection port. In practical applications, different types of remote connection control ports 19 can be set as needed to facilitate remote control of the modular adjustable water distribution unit 5.
[0036] A water level sensor 23 is installed inside the water seal 3. The water level sensor 23 is connected to the control chip 16. According to the setting of the water level sensor 23, when the water level in the water seal 3 is lower than the normal value, the water level sensor sends a signal to the solenoid valve system 1. The solenoid valve system 1 controls the corresponding modular adjustable water distribution unit 5 to replenish water to the water seal 3. In this utility model, the water seal is a water trap in a floor drain, a water trap in a central manifold, a P-type water trap in a pipe, an S-type water trap in a pipe, a water trap in a bathtub, a water trap in a shower room, or other possible water traps. The water supply tank 4 is equipped with a drain hole 21 and an overflow hole 22. The drain hole 21 is used to drain the liquid in the water supply tank 4 during cleaning, which is convenient for cleaning. The overflow hole 22 is used to drain the water in the water supply tank 4 when it is too full, which reduces the failure of the water inlet pipe 13 and the water supply piping system 2. In this utility model, the water supply piping system 2 is a water supply connection pipe. In practical applications, the water supply piping system 2 can also be other connection devices, all of which are within the protection scope of this utility model.
[0037] Example
[0038] In this embodiment, a water seal can be established at the water trap of a floor drain, a central manifold, a P-trap or S-trap in a pipe, a bathtub trap, a shower trap, or other possible water traps. This prevents odors from overflowing from the sewer. To prevent insufficient water in the water seal due to minor damage or natural evaporation, this invention incorporates a water level sensor connected to a control chip. When the water level in the water seal falls below the normal value, the sensor sends a signal to the solenoid valve system. The solenoid valve system then controls the corresponding modular adjustable water distribution unit to replenish water to the water seal. In practical applications, the solenoid valve system can be remotely controlled and the replenishment frequency and volume can be independently set according to local climate and personal habits, ensuring that various water-sealed products maintain normal functionality.
[0039] During water replenishment, the control chip controls the water inlet control valve on the water inlet pipe. At this time, the water inlet pipe and its water inlet control valve open to supply water. Since there is a water storage bucket in the water distribution chamber, the bucket continuously stores water. When the bucket is full, it flips over to pour out the water, thus replenishing the water seal at regular intervals. The duration of the timer can be adjusted by the solenoid valve, which can be remotely controlled. The water replenishment frequency and amount can be independently set according to the local climate and personal habits to ensure that various products with water seals maintain normal function.

Clearly, the above embodiments of this utility model are merely examples to clearly illustrate the present utility model, and are not intended to limit the implementation of the present utility model. Those skilled in the art can make other variations or modifications based on the above description. It is neither necessary nor possible to exhaustively list all possible implementations here. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, and improvements made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the scope of protection of the claims of this utility model.
