The traditional liquid level detection mainly comprises a light source which is emitted from the inside of the photoelectric distance measuring assembly, the light source is totally reflected to a receiver of the photoelectric distance measuring assembly through transparent resin, but when the liquid level is met, part of light is refracted to the liquid, and therefore the photoelectric distance measuring assembly detects the reduction of the total reflection light value to monitor the liquid level. However, such an approach is not suitable for liquids with low light reflectance (insufficient light reflectance, which may result in low accuracy of the measured distance value) or non-transparency.

Detailed Description
The invention will be described in detail with reference to the following drawings, which are provided for illustration purposes and the like:
referring to fig. 1A and 1B, fig. 1A is a schematic diagram illustrating a liquid level detection system 100 according to an embodiment of the invention, and fig. 1B is a schematic diagram illustrating a container 110 of fig. 1A tilted.
The liquid level detection system 100 includes a float 120, a second communication module 130, a second gyroscope 140, a processor 150, and a second battery 160. The processor 150 is, for example, a Microcontroller (MCU). The second communication module 130 and/or the processor 150 are, for example, hardware circuit (circuit) components formed by a semiconductor process.
The level detection system 100 is adapted for use with a container 110. The container 110 may be mounted in a vehicle, plant, or other suitable device. The container 110 is used for containing the liquid L and includes a cover 111 and a container 112. The cover 111 may be disposed on the accommodating body 112. The liquid L is for example water, oil or a chemical liquid. The buoy 120 floats on the liquid L and includes an electro-optical ranging assembly 121, a first gyroscope 122, and a first communication module 123. The electro-optical distance measuring device 121 and/or the first communication module 123 are hardware circuit devices formed by a semiconductor process, for example. The photoelectric distance measuring assembly 121 and the first gyroscope 122 are electrically connected to the first communication module 123, and the photoelectric distance measuring assembly 121 faces the cover 111 to measure a distance value D between the photoelectric distance measuring assembly 121 and the cover 111. The first communication module 123 is used for transmitting the signal S1 of the first gyroscope 122 and the distance value D. The second gyroscope 140 and the second communication module 130 are disposed on the cover 111. The second gyroscope 140 is electrically connected to the second communication module 130. The second communication module 130 is used for transmitting the signal S2 of the second gyroscope. The processor 150 is configured to (1) determine whether the vertical axis Z1 of the first gyroscope 122 is parallel to the vertical axis Z2 of the second gyroscope 140 according to the signal S1 of the first gyroscope 122 and the signal S2 of the second gyroscope 140, and (2) calculate the volume of the liquid L according to the distance value D measured by the electro-optical distance measuring device 121 when the vertical axis Z1 of the first gyroscope 122 is parallel to the vertical axis Z2 of the second gyroscope 140 (as shown in fig. 1A). Since the electro-optical distance measuring device 121 of the embodiment of the present invention emits the detection light toward the cover 111, it is not affected by the transparency of the liquid L. In other words, even if the liquid L is a low reflective (e.g., opaque) liquid, the measurement of the distance value D is not affected. In one embodiment, in order to increase the reflection amount of the detection light of the electro-optical ranging device 121 from the cover 111, a reflective layer (not shown) may be selectively formed on the lower surface 111b of the cover 111, wherein the lower surface 111b faces the electro-optical ranging device 121.
Further, when the vertical axis Z1 of the first gyroscope 122 is parallel to the vertical axis Z2 of the second gyroscope 140, the processor 150 calculates the volume of the liquid L (the liquid stock amount), so the computational burden on the processor 150 can be reduced, and the error between the calculated volume of the liquid and the actual stock amount of the liquid L in the container 110 is minimized. The first gyroscope 122 is, for example, a multi-axis gyroscope, such as a three-axis gyroscope, in which the vertical axis Z1 is one of the multiple axes. The second gyroscope 140 and the vertical axis Z1 have similar or identical features to the first gyroscope 122 and the vertical axis Z2, respectively, and are not described herein again.
As shown in fig. 1B, when the container 110 is tilted, the included angle θ between the vertical axis Z1 of the first gyroscope 122 and the vertical axis Z2 of the second gyroscope 140 is not equal to 0 or 180 degrees (i.e., is not parallel), and the processor 150 may not calculate the volume of the liquid L, so as to avoid increasing the operation burden of the processor 150. As such, a portable container may be used as the container 110 of the fluid level detection system 100 according to embodiments of the present invention.
In the embodiment, the liquid L is stored in the accommodating space 112r of the accommodating body 112. Although not shown, the liquid level detection system 100 may further include a display device electrically connected to the processor 150 and capable of displaying the value of the volume of the liquid L. The display component is for example a screen or an indicator, such as an indicator light. The aforementioned display assembly may be disposed outside the cover 111, the receiving body 112, or the container 110. In addition, although not shown, the fluid level detection system 100 may include a sound generating component electrically connected to the processor 150. When the calculated volume of the liquid L is lower than a predetermined value, the processor 150 may control the sound generating assembly to generate an alert sound to alert the user that the level of the liquid L in the container 110 is in a low level state. The aforementioned default value is, for example, 10%, lower, or higher of the total volume of the accommodation space 112r of the accommodation body 112. The sound generating member may be disposed outside the cover 111, the receiving body 112, or the container 110. The monitoring person can perform corresponding treatment, such as liquid replenishment, by calculating the volume of the liquid L or a warning sound.
As shown in fig. 1A and 1B, the vertical axis Z1 of the first gyroscope 122 is in the same direction regardless of the position of the float 120 floating on the liquid L, such that the vertical axis Z1 of the first gyroscope 122 provides a fixed reference. Thus, by determining the difference change of the vertical axis Z2 of the second gyroscope 140 relative to the fixed reference, it can be known that the posture of the container 110 is a regular pendulum (as shown in fig. 1A), a slant pendulum (as shown in fig. 1B) or a wobble. Furthermore, since the vertical axis Z1 of the first gyroscope 122 is oriented in the same direction regardless of the position of the float 120 floating on the liquid L, the position of a particular float 120 may not be considered when placing the float 120 in the receptacle 112, nor may any particular concern be given to the securement of the float 120.
In the present embodiment, the processor 150 is disposed outside the buoy 120 and the container 110, and is, for example, a server disposed at the rear end. In another embodiment, the fluid level detection system 100 may omit the processor 150. The first communication module 123 is, for example, a wireless communication module for transmitting the signal S1 of the first gyroscope 122 and the distance D measured by the electro-optical ranging device 121 to the processor 150, and the second communication module 130 is, for example, a wireless communication module for transmitting the signal S2 of the second gyroscope 140 to the processor 150. The wireless communication module is, for example, a WiFi communication module, a bluetooth communication module, or other communication modules conforming to a communication protocol, and the embodiment of the present invention is not limited to the type of the wireless communication module. The processor 150 determines whether the vertical axis Z1 of the first gyroscope 122 is parallel to the vertical axis Z2 of the second gyroscope 140 according to the signal S1 of the first gyroscope 122 and the signal S2 of the second gyroscope 140. When the vertical axis Z1 of the first gyroscope 122 is parallel to the vertical axis Z2 of the second gyroscope 140, the processor 150 calculates the volume of the liquid L. In another embodiment, the second communication module 130 may transmit the signal S2 of the second gyroscope 140 to the first communication module 123, and the first communication module 123 transmits the signal S2 of the second gyroscope 140 and the signal S1 of the first gyroscope 122 to the processor 150 for operation. Alternatively, the first communication module 123 may transmit the signal S1 of the first gyroscope 122 to the second communication module 130, and the second communication module 130 transmits the signal S2 of the second gyroscope 140 and the signal S1 of the first gyroscope 122 to the processor 150 for operation. In other embodiments, the second communication module 130 and the first communication module 123 may also be electrically connected through a line (not shown), so that the signal S1 of the first gyroscope 122 and the signal S2 of the second gyroscope 140 are transmitted through a wired manner.
In an embodiment, the processor 150 is further configured to: the volume of the liquid L is calculated according to the cross-sectional area a of the accommodating space 112r of the container 110 (the label a in fig. 1A indicates the top-view area of the accommodating space 112 r), the height H of the accommodating space 112r of the container 110, the distance H between the sensing surface 121u of the electro-optical distance measuring device 121 and the liquid level Le of the liquid L, and the distance D measured by the electro-optical distance measuring device 121. In detail, the processor 150 may calculate the volume VL of the liquid L according to the following formula (1). The following expression (1) is suitable for a case where the accommodating space 112r is of a regular shape, for example, the sectional area a of the accommodating space 112r is constant (constant) along the height. The values of the cross-sectional area a, the height H, and the distance H may be pre-stored in the processor 150 or another storage unit (e.g., a memory).
VL＝A×(H-h-D)...........................(1)
In another embodiment, the processor 150 calculates or looks up a table to obtain the volume of the liquid L corresponding to the distance value D according to a corresponding relationship (not shown) between the distance value D and the liquid volume. The corresponding relationship is, for example, a discrete numerical relationship (such as a table) or a curve equation. The corresponding relationship can be obtained by performing an experiment on the relationship between the distance value D and the liquid volume in the container 110. After obtaining the corresponding relationship, the corresponding relationship may be stored in the processor 150 or another storage unit (e.g., a memory). When the accommodating space 112r of the container 110 is irregular, the liquid volume corresponding to the distance value D can be obtained by looking up the table according to the corresponding relationship obtained by experiments in advance.
As shown in fig. 1A, the buoy 120 further includes a buoy body 124, and the electro-optical distance measuring device 121, the first gyroscope 122 and the first communication module 123 may be disposed in the buoy body 124 to avoid being damaged by the liquid L. In addition, the buoy 120 further includes a first battery 125 electrically connected to the electro-optical distance measuring device 121, the first gyroscope 122 and the first communication module 123 for supplying power to these devices. In addition, the second battery 160 is disposed on the cover 111, and is electrically connected to the second communication module 130 and the second gyroscope 140 to supply power to these components. Although not shown, the buoy 120 further includes a weight disposed at the bottom of the buoy body 124.
Referring to fig. 2, a schematic diagram of a liquid level detection system 200 according to another embodiment of the invention is shown. The liquid level detecting system 200 includes a float 220, a second communication module 130, a second gyroscope 140, a processor 150, a second battery 160, and a connecting wire 270. The level detection system 200 may be adapted for use with the container 110. The fluid level detection system 200 of the present embodiment has similar or identical features to the fluid level detection system 100, except that the processor 150 of the fluid level detection system 200 is disposed in the float 220 and the second communication module 130 is electrically connected to the first communication module 123 of the float 220 by the connection line 270.
As shown in fig. 2, the processor 150 is disposed in the float body 124 of the float 220 and electrically connected to the electro-optical distance measuring device 121, the first gyroscope 122 and the first communication module 123 to receive the distance value D from the electro-optical distance measuring device 121, the signal S1 from the first gyroscope 122 and the signal S2 from the second gyroscope 130 from the first communication module 123 (the first communication module 123 receives from the second communication module 130). In the present embodiment, the signal S1 of the first gyroscope 122 is transmitted by the physical connection 270. However, in another embodiment, the connection line 270 may be omitted from the liquid level detection system 200, in which case the signal S2 of the second gyroscope 140 is wirelessly transmitted to the first communication module 123, and then transmitted to the processor 150 for operation by the first communication module 123. The processor 150 of the fluid level detection system 200 calculates the volume of the fluid L in a manner similar to or the same as that of the processor 150 of the fluid level detection system 100, and thus, the description thereof is omitted.
Referring to fig. 3, a schematic diagram of a liquid level detection system 300 according to another embodiment of the invention is shown. The liquid level detecting system 300 includes a float 120, a second communication module 130, a second gyroscope 140, a processor 150, a second battery 160, and a connecting wire 270. The level detection system 300 may be adapted for use with the container 110. The fluid level detection system 300 of the present embodiment has similar or identical features to the fluid level detection system 100, except that the processor 150 of the fluid level detection system 300 is disposed in the cover 111 and the second communication module 130 is electrically connected to the first communication module 123 of the float 120 by the connection line 270.
As shown in fig. 3, the processor 150 is disposed in the cover 111 and electrically connected to the second gyroscope 140 and the second communication module 130 to receive the signal S2 transmitted from the second gyroscope 140 and the signal S1 and the distance value D of the first gyroscope 122 transmitted from the second communication module 130 (the second communication module 130 receives from the first communication module 123). In the present embodiment, the signal S1 of the first gyroscope 122 is transmitted by the physical connection 270. However, in another embodiment, the connection line 270 may be omitted from the liquid level detection system 300, in which case the signal S1 of the first gyroscope 122 and the distance value D may be transmitted to the second communication module 130 by wireless transmission, and then transmitted to the processor 150 for operation by the second communication module 130. The processor 150 of the fluid level detection system 200 calculates the volume of the fluid L in a manner similar to or the same as that of the processor 150 of the fluid level detection system 100, and thus, the description thereof is omitted.
In summary, the signal transmission between the first communication module 122, the second communication module 130 and the processor 150 can be transmitted in a wired and/or wireless manner.
Referring to fig. 4, a schematic diagram of a liquid level detection system 400 according to another embodiment of the invention is shown. The liquid level detecting system 400 includes a float 120, a second communication module 130, a second gyroscope 140, a processor 150, a second battery 160, and a connecting wire 470. The level detection system 400 may be adapted for use with a container 410. In another embodiment, the fluid level detection system 400 may omit the processor 150. In the embodiment of the present invention, the container 410 of the liquid level detecting system 400 comprises a cover 411 and a container 412, wherein the cover 411 is connected to the float 120 by a connecting line 470.
As shown in fig. 4, the cover 411 may be disposed on the accommodating body 412. For example, the container 412 of the container 410 has an opening 412a, and the cover 411 is detachably (e.g., screwed or fastened) disposed in the opening 412a of the container 412. The connection line 470 connects the float body 124 of the float 120 and the cover 411. Thus, when the cover 411 is detached from the accommodating body 412, the float 120 can be pulled out of the accommodating body 411 through the connecting line 470. In an embodiment, the connecting wire 470 is a non-conductive wire. In another embodiment, the connecting wire 470 may be a conductive wire and electrically connects the first communication module 122 and the second communication module 130. In addition, the suitable container 110 of the liquid level detection system 200 of FIG. 2 can be replaced by the container 410, and the suitable container 110 of the liquid level detection system 300 of FIG. 3 can be replaced by the container 410.
Referring to fig. 5, a schematic diagram of a buoy 520 according to another embodiment of the invention is shown. The buoy 520 includes a buoy body 524, the electro-optical distance measuring assembly 121, the first gyroscope 122 (not shown), the first communication module 123 (not shown), and the first battery 125 (not shown). The float body 524 has an arc-shaped upper surface 524u, and the upper surface 524u extends outward from the periphery of the electro-optical ranging device 121 to guide the fluid L attached to the upper surface 524u or the sensing surface 121u of the electro-optical ranging device 121 to leave the float body 524, so as to prevent the fluid L from remaining on the sensing surface 121u and adversely affecting the sensing accuracy of the electro-optical ranging device 121.
In addition, a paint (not shown) may be formed on the outer surface of the float body 524 to prevent the liquid L from sticking to the outer surface of the float body 524. The paint is, for example, a nano paint or an antifouling paint, and can effectively prevent the thick or highly viscous liquid L from adhering to the outer surface of the float body 524.
Referring to fig. 6, a flow chart of a liquid level detection method according to an embodiment of the invention is shown.
In step S110, the aforementioned liquid level detection system 100 is provided.
In step S120, the processor 150 of the liquid level detection system 100 determines whether the vertical axis Z1 of the first gyroscope 122 is parallel to the vertical axis Z2 of the second gyroscope 140 according to the signal S1 of the first gyroscope 122 and the signal S2 of the second gyroscope 140. When the vertical axis Z1 of the first gyroscope 122 is parallel to the vertical axis Z2 of the second gyroscope 140, the flow advances to step S130; when the vertical axis Z1 of the first gyroscope 122 is not parallel to the vertical axis Z2 of the second gyroscope 140, the flow advances to step S140.
In step S130, when the vertical axis Z1 of the first gyroscope 122 is parallel to the vertical axis Z2 of the second gyroscope 140 (as shown in fig. 1A), the processor 150 calculates the volume VL of the liquid L according to the distance value D measured by the electro-optical distance measuring assembly 121.
In step S140, when the vertical axis Z1 of the first gyroscope 122 is not parallel to the vertical axis Z2 of the second gyroscope 140 (as shown in fig. 1B), the processor 150 does not calculate the volume VL of the liquid L, so as to reduce the operation burden of the processor 150. In other words, the liquid level detection method according to the embodiment of the present invention calculates the volume VL of the liquid L when the vertical axis Z1 of the first gyroscope 122 is parallel to the vertical axis Z2 of the second gyroscope 140, and thus can effectively reduce the operation load of the processor 150.
The liquid level detection method of the liquid level detection systems 200, 300, and/or 400 has a similar or identical process to the liquid level detection method of the liquid level detection system 100, and will not be described herein again.
The present invention may be embodied in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential attributes thereof, and it should be understood that various changes and modifications can be effected therein by one skilled in the art without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention as defined in the appended claims.
