摘要:
A distributed control system for a vacuum sewer system comprising a suction pipe which is communicated with a vacuum source via a transport conduit (520) by opening a vacuum valve (530) using a solenoid valve is disclosed. The transport conduit is connected between the vacuum valve and a collection tank, with the collection tank having a vacuum source relative to atmospheric pressure applied thereto. The suction pipe is connected between the vacuum valve and a sewage sump, with the sewage sump have a source of sewage maintained at atmospheric pressure. Sewage (551) in the sump is sucked through the suction pipe and sent to the collection tank via the transport conduit by opening the vacuum valve. A transport conduit section is laid out in a sawtooth fashion, having in series transport conduit portions comprising a low-point conduit portion (522), a riser conduit portion (521), and a down-slope conduit portion (523). A valve pit apparatus (500) for control and monitoring the valve pit operations is provided with a battery powered electronic computer, a plurality of sensors, and a solenoid valve. A transport conduit apparatus for monitoring the transport conduit conditions is provided with a riser conduit sensor (550) capable of detecting sewage conditions within the riser and communicating the conditions to a computer (551) for processing.When the vacuum valve (530) is intermittently opened by control of the valve pit apparatus (500), sewage (551) in the sump is intermittently injected under the influence of atmospheric pressure into the transport conduit (520) for transportation to the collection tank, which passes through the transport conduit riser (521) and detected by the transport conduit apparatus for processing. The results of the valve pit apparatus and the transport conduit apparatus processing are stored in computer memory as operating parameters and then wirelessly communicated to devices external of the valve pit apparatus and transport conduit apparatus. The distributed control system provides an apparatus and method for control and monitoring of the vacuum sewer system, which is complex in sensor placement operating parameters processing but simple in structure, easy to maintain and capable of stable operation.

The present invention provides a check valve for use in a vacuum sewage pipe. The check valve includes a body having a sewage inlet and a sewage outlet to be coupled to the vacuum sewage pipe, a flap valve element disposed in the body and rotatably supported by a shaft, and a closing mechanism. The closing mechanism can keep the flap valve element in a closed state so as to allow the flap valve element to function as a gate valve. The closing mechanism can also limit an opening degree of the flap valve element so as to allow the flap valve element to function as a check valve.

A vacuum pump control apparatus for an evacuating-type waste water collecting system is disclosed. In the system, waste water discharged from houses and facilities is collected into a water collecting tank by vacuum sewer pipes provided with a negative pressure therein, and the waste water collected in the water collecting tank is discharged by a booster pump while the air in the water collecting tank is discharged by a vacuum pump. The vacuum pump control apparatus comprises a gas-liquid ratio detection arrangement for detecting the ratio of the amount of air to the amount of waste water to be collected into the water collecting tank, and a control system for regulating the operating time of the vacuum pump based upon the gas-liquid ratio detected by the gas-liquid ratio detecting arrangement, so that a target value of the gas-liquid ratio is recovered when it falls below the target value. By this apparatus, the gas-liquid ratio within the vacuum sewer pipes is kept to an ideal value to thereby prevent an air lock from forming in the vacuum sewer pipes.

An improved vacuum-type waste water removal system is provided for use in buildings wherein waste water, collected from facilities such as toilets and bath tubs in the building, is fed by gravity feed lines to a collection chamber connected to a vacuum line for removal of the collected water, and wherein a check valve is connected between the collection chamber and the vacuum line which opens automatically when the water reaches a preselected maximum. The improvement concerns the provision of a backwash receptacle connected to either a gravity line or the collection chamber at a location above the maximum water level in the collection chamber and substantially below the facilities referred to. The volume of the backwash receptacle is large as compared with the collection chamber and the backwash receptacle serves to reduce operating noise and to provide overflow protection.

Embodiments of the present disclosure generally provide a grey water interface valve liquid level sensor system. The liquid level sensor system may deliver information about the water level and the water movement that occurs in a water reservoir. A control unit may then activate a valve to open so that the water can be removed via vacuum.

A valve malfunctioning detection system for use in a vacuum sewer system including a vacuum pit in fluid communication with a vacuum station is provided. The vacuum pit includes a vacuum sewer valve that is moveable between an opened position and a closed position. The valve malfunctioning detection system may include a radio unit adapted to be carried by the vacuum pit, a gateway radio in communication with the radio unit, a hub radio in communication with the gateway radio to receive a signal transmitted by the gateway radio, and a server in communication with the hub radio. The signal transmitted by the radio unit may include an indication of a status of the vacuum sewer valve.
