[Image Description]
[0022] Figure 1 is a schematic diagram of the water quality management system control of the present invention. [Detailed Implementation]
[0023] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will now be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.
[0024] It should be noted that all directional indications (such as up, down, left, right, front, back, etc.) in the embodiments of the present invention are only used to explain the relative positional relationship and movement of the components in a specific posture (as shown in the accompanying drawings). If the specific posture changes, the directional indication will also change accordingly. Furthermore, descriptions involving "preferred," "second-best," etc., in this invention are for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying their relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of technical features indicated. Therefore, a feature defined as "preferred" or "second-best" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one of those features.
[0025] As shown in Figure 1, a water quality management system control method includes a water quality testing device 1 for detecting water quality data related to the water to be tested, a user smart device 2, and a backend server 3. The water quality testing device 1 is equipped with a Bluetooth communication module 11. The user smart device 2 is equipped with a smart device Bluetooth communication module 21 wirelessly connected to the Bluetooth communication module 11, a positioning module 22, a mobile communication module 23 wirelessly connected to the backend server 3, and a water quality management application system. The backend server 3 is preset with information on the type of water to be tested and scoring standards for relevant water quality data of different types of water to be tested. The control steps are as follows:
[0026] S1. Trigger the startup of the water quality management application system in the user's smart device 2. The water quality management application system turns on the smart device's Bluetooth communication module 21 and positioning module 22.
[0027] S2, the water quality management application system controls the intelligent device Bluetooth communication module 21 to connect the detection device Bluetooth communication module 11 to obtain the type information of the water to be tested and the scoring standards of the relevant water quality data of different types of water to be tested, and the control positioning module 22 to locate the location information of the user intelligent device 2;
[0028] S3. The water quality management application system displays the user's choice of water type for the current test via the user's smart device 2; the water type to be tested includes tap water, mineral water, purified water, water filtered by an ultrafiltration membrane water purifier, or water filtered by a nanofiltration membrane water purifier.
[0029] S4. The user selects the type of water to be tested, and the water quality management application system receives the relevant water quality data of the water to be tested from the water quality testing device 1.
[0030] S5. The water quality management application system calculates the water quality score and grade of the water to be tested according to the scoring standard corresponding to the selected water type. It then uploads the location information, relevant water quality data, water quality score, and water quality grade information to the backend server. The system also displays the relevant water quality data, water quality score, water quality grade, and the range of high-quality water indicators on the user's smart device 2, allowing the user to intuitively view the actual situation of the tested water quality. Simultaneously, the backend server collects water quality data from tap water in different regions, which can be used by water purifier manufacturers to analyze and improve their purifiers to optimize water filtration. The smart device 2 includes devices such as mobile phones and tablets. The relevant water quality data includes TDS (Total Dissolved Solids), TOC (Total Organic Carbon), COD (Chemical Oxygen Demand), UV (Ultraviolet Transmittance), EC (Electrochemical Conductivity), and temperature data.
[0031] In this case, the backend server 3 has multiple user account information. The water quality management application system of the user's smart device 2 is associated with one user account. This user account can log in via WeChat and can be bound to the user's identity via phone number. In S1, after triggering the launch of the water quality management application system in the user's smart device 2, the user account logs in through the water quality management application system. In S5, the location information, water quality data related to the water to be tested, water quality score information, and water quality grade information are uploaded to the database associated with the user account in the backend server 3. At the same time, after storing multiple test data in the user account database, the water quality management application system can display historical test data and generate historical test data curves based on the historical test data in the user account database for the user to view.
[0032] In this case, when the user tests the tap water quality data, after selecting tap water in S4, the control step also includes S6, where the water quality management application system reads the relevant water quality data of the water to be tested in the adjacent area from the background server 3 according to the location information, and compares and displays the comparison information.
[0033] In this case, when a user tests the water quality data of the filtered water, they can select ultrafiltration membrane water or nanofiltration membrane water in S4 according to the actual test. The water quality management application system reads the water quality data of the same water purifier user in the background server 3, and compares and displays it with the average of the water quality data of the same water purifier user as an indicator of the filter health.
[0034] In this case, after the user installs the water purifier, the user account database associated with the water quality management application system of the user's smart device 2 records information related to the water purifier model, calculates the filter cartridge usage time, and periodically sends filter cartridge replacement reminders to the water quality management application system based on the usage records. The water purifier-related information includes information such as the installed water purifier, installation address, filter cartridge usage records, filter cartridge replacement records, cleaning records, and maintenance history.
[0035] In this case, the backend server 3 obtains the tap water quality data detected by users in the nearby area based on the location information in the user account database, and sends it to the associated water quality management application system on a regular basis. At the same time, it regularly pushes the average water quality data of the water filtered by the relevant water purifiers so that users can understand the health status of the filter cartridges they are using.
[0036] In this case, when the water quality score of the water to be tested calculated by the water quality management application system in S5 exceeds the scoring standard, the backend server 3 determines that the water quality data is abnormal, and handles it through the water purifier customer service department, and notifies the water quality management application system of the water quality abnormality. Specifically, when the backend server 3 receives the tap water-related water quality abnormality data, it immediately sends the tap water-related water quality abnormality data to the water quality management application system associated with the user account database in the same region and provides a notification based on the location information sent. At the same time, the water purifier customer service department proactively arranges a time with the user to provide professional re-inspection service. If the water to be tested is filtered water and the filtered water quality data is determined to be abnormal, the filter cartridge is reminded to be replaced.
[0037] In this case, the water quality testing device 1 is equipped with a central processing unit (CPU). The CPU is connected to a Bluetooth communication component for wireless communication with the user's smart device, a display component for displaying water quality testing information, a TDS electrode component, an ultraviolet transceiver component, a temperature sensor, and a button component. During testing, the water quality testing device 1 is placed in the water to be tested, and the testing is started via the button component. After the testing is completed, the display component shows relevant water quality data such as TDS (Total Dissolved Solids), TOC (Total Organic Carbon), COD (Chemical Oxygen Demand), UV (Ultraviolet Transmittance), EC (Electrochemical Conductivity), and temperature.
[0038] The temperature data detection principle of the water quality testing equipment 1 is as follows: the central processing unit has a temperature lookup table that corresponds to the digital water temperature signal generated by the temperature sensor; the temperature sensor comes into contact with the water to be tested and generates different analog voltage outputs according to the water temperature to be tested, which are converted into digital water temperature signals after the A / D conversion of the temperature sensor and sent to the central processing unit; the central processing unit looks up the temperature data according to the digital water temperature signal and the temperature lookup table.
[0039] The detection principle of EC conductivity and TDS total dissolved solids (TDS) data by water quality testing equipment 1 is as follows: The central processing unit (CPU) has a pre-set temperature compensation algorithm relating TDS, EC conductivity, and temperature. The TDS electrode assembly contacts the water to be tested and generates different currents based on the distribution of ions in the water. These currents are converted into corresponding voltage signals by the conversion circuit of the TDS electrode assembly. After A / D conversion by the TDS electrode assembly, the EC conductivity data of the water to be tested is obtained and sent to the CPU. The CPU calculates the TDS total dissolved solids data based on the temperature data, EC conductivity data, temperature compensation algorithm, and the calibration values of the corresponding water quality parameters. The temperature compensation algorithm is a relationship between temperature, conductivity, and TDS obtained through curve fitting after multi-point sampling.
[0040] The detection principle of UV transmittance, TOC (Total Organic Carbon), and COD (Chemical Oxygen Demand) data for water quality testing equipment 1 is as follows: The central processing unit (CPU) has a pre-set relationship between UV transmittance and TOC / COD. The UV transceiver unit contacts the water to be tested and emits 275nm UV light. The receiving end of the transceiver unit receives the UV light and converts the light intensity into a corresponding voltage signal via its conversion circuit. After A / D conversion, the UV transmittance data of the water to be tested is obtained and sent to the CPU. The CPU calculates the TOC and COD data based on the relationship between UV transmittance and TOC / COD, along with the calibration values of the corresponding water quality parameters. The relationship between UV transmittance and TOC / COD is obtained through curve fitting after multi-point sampling.
[0041] The above are merely preferred embodiments of the present invention and do not limit the patent scope of the present invention. All equivalent structural transformations made using the contents of the present invention's specification and drawings under the inventive concept of the present invention, or direct or indirect applications in other related technical fields, are included within the patent protection scope of the present invention.
