Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of water affairs data acquisition technology, specifically relating to a new type of smart water affairs data acquisition device. Background Technology
[0002] Water data acquisition devices are key equipment used to monitor and manage water resources, water supply networks, sewage treatment, and hydrological environment. Their core function is to collect various water parameters (such as flow rate, pressure, water quality, and water level) in real time or periodically through sensors and instruments, and upload the data to a monitoring platform through a transmission system to provide a basis for water management, scheduling, and decision-making. However, the sensors used for water data monitoring in water supply networks are prone to impurities adhering to their surfaces due to long-term water flow, which reduces monitoring accuracy. Therefore, it is necessary to install filters in the upstream water circuit where the sensors are installed. However, these filters also accumulate impurities over time, slowing down the water flow and reducing the water velocity. Since the filters are usually installed inside the water pipes, cleaning them requires shutting off the water circuit where the filters are located, which is inconvenient. Utility Model Content
[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide a novel smart water data acquisition device, which is equipped with multiple filters of the same structure. When the flow rate slows down due to impurities in a single filter, the device can automatically switch filters without frequently shutting down the water supply to clean the filters.
[0004] The specific technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows:
[0005] A novel smart water data acquisition device includes a water data acquisition pipe, with an inlet pipe installed at one end and an outlet pipe installed at the other end.
[0006] A filtration mechanism includes a circular housing, which is installed in the middle of a water inlet pipe. A water passage hole is provided at one end of the circular housing and at the position of the water inlet pipe. A circular switching plate is rotatably installed inside the circular housing. A plurality of accumulation holes are provided inside the circular switching plate. The diameter of the accumulation holes is the same as that of the water passage hole. A filter screen is provided inside the accumulation holes.
[0007] Furthermore, a stepper motor is installed in the middle of one end of the circular housing, and the output end of the stepper motor is connected to a circular switching plate inside the circular housing.
[0008] Furthermore, a cleaning mechanism is installed between the water outlet pipe and the circular shell. The cleaning mechanism includes a return flushing pipe, one end of which is fixed to the outside of the water outlet pipe, and the other end of which is connected to the circular shell. A cleaning hole is provided at one end of the circular shell, located at the installation position of the return flushing pipe. The diameter of the cleaning hole is the same as that of the water passage hole. A slag discharge pipe is installed at the other end of the circular shell, located at the cleaning hole.
[0009] Furthermore, a flow diffuser is installed at the connection between the return flushing pipe and the circular shell, and the inner diameter of the flow diffuser is the same as that of the cleaning hole.
[0010] Furthermore, a solenoid valve is installed in the middle of the return flushing pipe.
[0011] The water data acquisition pipe integrates a pressure sensor, a flow rate sensor, and a water quality sensor.
[0012] The technical effects achieved by this utility model are as follows:
[0013] This utility model achieves the rotation of the accumulation hole and the filter screen by setting a circular switching plate and linking the accumulation hole and the filter screen. When the filter screen affects the water flow due to impurities, the accumulation hole and the filter screen can be switched by controlling the rotation of the circular switching plate, so that the water flow can continue to flow normally.
[0014] This utility model uses a backflow flushing pipe linked with a circular switching plate. After the water flow through the outlet pipe completes the cyclic cutting of the accumulation holes and filter screen, the water flow can enter the backflow flushing pipe and flow towards the accumulation holes and filter screen where impurities are accumulated. This reverse flushing of the accumulation holes and filter screen causes the impurities accumulated on the accumulation holes and filter screen to be flushed to the slag discharge pipe for discharge. There is no need to shut off the water circuit during the process. Attached Figure Description

[0020] To make the objectives and advantages of this utility model clearer, the following detailed description is provided in conjunction with embodiments. It should be understood that the following text is merely used to describe one or more specific embodiments of this utility model and does not strictly limit the scope of protection specifically claimed by this utility model.
[0021] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, a new type of smart water data acquisition device includes a water data acquisition pipe 1, with an inlet pipe 11 installed at one end of the water data acquisition pipe 1 and an outlet pipe 12 installed at the other end of the water data acquisition pipe 1.
[0022] The filter mechanism 2 includes a circular housing 21, which is installed in the middle of the water inlet pipe 11. A water passage hole is provided at one end of the circular housing 21 and at the position of the water inlet pipe 11. A circular switching plate 22 is rotatably installed inside the circular housing 21. A plurality of accumulation holes 23 are provided inside the circular switching plate 22. The diameter of the accumulation holes 23 is the same as that of the water passage hole. A filter screen 24 is provided inside the accumulation holes 23.
[0023] As described above, the water data acquisition pipe 1 integrates a sensor for detecting water data. The inlet pipe 11 is installed in the water delivery pipeline. Water flows through the inlet pipe 11 to the water data acquisition pipe 1, completes data monitoring, and then flows out from the outlet pipe 12. During this process, the filter screen 24 fixed in the circular switching plate 22 installed on the inlet pipe 11 can filter the flowing water, preventing particles in the water from contacting the sensor and causing errors in the sensor monitoring data. At the same time, the filter screen 24 is set at one end of the accumulation hole 23, and the particles filtered by the filter screen 24 can be temporarily stored in the accumulation hole 23. When too many impurities accumulate in the accumulation hole 23 and affect the flow rate, the filter screen 24 aligned with the inlet pipe 11 can be switched by rotating the circular switching plate 22 to restore the water flow rate to normal while continuing to filter impurities in the water flow.
[0024] Furthermore, the water data acquisition pipe 1 integrates a pressure sensor, a flow velocity sensor, and a water quality sensor, which are used to detect water pressure data, flow velocity data, and water quality indicators such as pH, turbidity, residual chlorine, and dissolved oxygen in the water pipe network, respectively. In addition to the above sensors, other sensors used to detect water flow can also be integrated.
[0025] Furthermore, the water data acquisition pipe 1 also integrates a wireless communication module, which can upload pressure, flow rate, water quality data and filter status 24 hours a day to the cloud monitoring platform in real time, and supports remote viewing of historical data curves and alarm information.
[0026] Furthermore, a stepper motor 25 is installed in the middle of one end of the circular housing 21. The output end of the stepper motor 25 is connected to the circular switching plate 22 inside the circular housing 21. When switching the filter 24, the stepper motor 25 is started to control the circular switching plate 22 to rotate by a certain angle, so that the filter 24 installed in the circular switching plate 22 is displaced, thus completing the switching of the filter 24.
[0027] Please refer to the following: Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a cleaning mechanism 3 is installed between the water outlet pipe 12 and the circular housing 21. The cleaning mechanism 3 includes a return flushing pipe 31. One end of the return flushing pipe 31 is fixed to the outside of the water outlet pipe 12, and the other end of the return flushing pipe 31 is connected to the circular housing 21. A cleaning hole is provided at one end of the circular housing 21 and at the location where the return flushing pipe 31 is installed. The diameter of the cleaning hole is the same as that of the water passage hole. A slag discharge pipe 33 is installed at the other end of the circular housing 21 and at the location of the cleaning hole.
[0028] In the above process, after the filter screen 24 is switched, the accumulation hole 23 where impurities are deposited will be switched to the position of the cleaning hole. When the flowing water passes through the outlet pipe 12, a portion of it will be diverted into the return flushing pipe 31 and flow towards the position of the cleaning hole, so that the water flow reverses through the filter screen 24, which can flush away the impurities accumulated in the accumulation hole 23. The impurities mixed with the water flow are discharged from the slag discharge pipe 33, thus completing the self-cleaning of the filter screen 24.
[0029] Furthermore, a diffuser pipe 32 is installed at the connection between the return flushing pipe 31 and the circular housing 21. The inner diameter of the diffuser pipe 32 is the same as that of the cleaning hole. A solenoid valve 34 is installed in the middle of the return flushing pipe 31.
[0030] As described above, the diffuser pipe 32, which is set between the return flushing pipe 31 and the circular shell 21, is used to expand the diameter of the water flowing to the filter screen 24, ensuring that the water can fully contact the filter screen 24 and flush the entire filter screen 24, thus ensuring the flushing effect. The solenoid valve 34 is used to control whether the water flowing through the outlet pipe 12 flows into the return flushing pipe 31.
[0031] Furthermore, the solenoid valve 34 has a built-in microcontroller unit that automatically opens and closes according to the switching signal of the filter 24, and can automatically trigger the flushing process remotely via 4G. The flushing time can be adjusted through parameter configuration.
[0032] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: The device is installed in a water pipe network. Water flows through the inlet pipe 11 into the water data acquisition pipe 1. The water data is monitored by the sensor integrated in the water data acquisition pipe 1. Before entering the water data acquisition pipe 1, the water flows through the filter screen 24 to prevent impurities in the water from affecting the monitoring accuracy of the sensor. When too many impurities accumulate in front of one of the filter screens 24, the stepper motor 25 controls the circular switching plate 22 to rotate by a certain angle, causing the position of the accumulation hole 23 to switch. The filter screen 24 continues to filter the water flow at the water passage, while the switched filter screen 24 moves to the cleaning hole. At the same time, the solenoid valve 34 on the return flushing pipe 31 is activated, and part of the water flowing through the outlet pipe 12 flows into the return flushing pipe 31, and is expanded through the diffuser pipe 32 and then through the water passage to flush the filter screen 24. This flushes down the impurities accumulated in the accumulation hole 23 and the impurities on the surface of the filter screen 24, and discharges them along the slag discharge pipe 33, thus completing the self-cleaning of the filter screen 24. The cleaning of the filter screen 24 can be completed without shutting off the water circuit.
[0033] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various improvements and modifications without departing from the principle of this utility model, and these improvements and modifications should also be considered within the scope of protection of this utility model. Structures, devices, and operating methods not specifically described or explained in this utility model, unless otherwise specified or limited, shall be implemented using conventional methods in the field.
