Abstract
Description
The present invention relates to a detection system capable of detecting the leakage of water and sewage pipes buried underground.
Generally, water pipes for the supply of water to houses, buildings, factories and apartments are buried in the ground, and clean water is supplied to them from branch pipes separated from the main building. Although the old water pipes are replaced periodically, they are not wasted in the case of leakage due to the failure to replace the water pipes and water pipes, and there is a possibility of water pollution due to the influx of foreign substances.
The water leakage measurement of the water pipe is mainly based on the fact that the water pipe is buried in the underground and the dangerous area, and the method such as the ultrasonic wave generation or the measurement by the pipe input device and the microwave laser is used.
However, this is a measurement after leakage, and there are many practical difficulties to locate at the same time as leakage. The water leakage of the water supply pipe is compared with the difference between the supply amount and the consumed amount, or the staff member is walking around the site in the middle of the night and recognizes it as an audible sound. However, There is a problem that a considerable effort and cost are required for sensing and measuring the flow rate.
The present invention provides a leakage detection system capable of detecting a precise leakage position of a pipe embedded in a basement.
According to an aspect of the present invention, there is provided a leakage detection system comprising: a plurality of sensors spaced apart from a plurality of pipelines to measure leakage signals; A plurality of leakage detection units for detecting occurrence of leaks using signals received from the plurality of sensors; And a plurality of relay nodes for detecting a leakage occurrence position using the information received from the plurality of leakage detection units and transmitting the detection result to the outside.
In the leakage detection system according to an aspect of the present invention, the relay node calculates a plurality of leakage positions using the difference in distance between the sensors, and determines the average value as a leakage position.
In the leakage detection system according to an embodiment of the present invention, a gateway for transmitting leak information received from the plurality of relay nodes to a central management server, the relay node including a relay node disposed on the shortest distance to the gateway And transmits leak information to the gateway.
In a leakage detection system according to an aspect of the present invention, when the transmitted information is not transmitted to the gateway, the relay node transmits leak information to the gateway using the bypass relay node.
In a leakage detection system according to an aspect of the present invention, the gateway transmits leakage information to the central management server using a wired network.
A leakage detection method according to one aspect of the present invention includes: collecting signals from a plurality of pipelines; Determining whether a leak is detected using the signal; And determining a leakage position using a difference in distance between the plurality of sensors when the leakage is determined to be a leakage.
In the leakage detection method according to an aspect of the present invention, the step of determining the leakage position may include calculating a plurality of leakage positions using a difference in distance between the plurality of sensors, and determining an average value of the leakage positions.
According to the present invention, it is possible to detect the accurate leak position of the pipe embedded in the underground. Further, according to the present invention, the central management server can wirelessly communicate with the leak detecting unit to use a small number of leak sensors. As a result, the installation cost can be reduced by installing a small number of equipment in the leak detection area and covering a wide range.
In addition, leakage detection can be performed at a set time when the water use is low, thereby eliminating the complaint of the user due to the interruption of the water supply during the detection period for leak detection.
