DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a remote monitoring system for the maintenance and management of the amount and quality of water in a pool, and the number of times of water supply without water supply each time even when the water level of the pool is lowered due to an increase in the number of swimmers. In addition, when supplying water to the pool, the water quality of the pool is purified by continuing to supply water for a predetermined time even after it becomes full, and the water level and water quality of the pool are monitored, and a specified abnormality occurs. The present invention relates to a pool maintenance management remote monitoring system that reports the occurrence of the abnormality to a pool remote monitoring device installed at a remote location.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art The management of the amount of water and the quality of swimming pools in schools and the like is performed by a school teacher who is in charge of management by visually checking a water level meter, a chlorine concentration meter, and the like. To open the valve and supply water and replenish chlorine. Alternatively, when the water level drops below a predetermined value or when the water quality exceeds a predetermined value, a buzzer sounds and a warning lamp flashes to notify the user in some cases. However, for example, as will be described later, pool management requires specialized knowledge such as drive motors of various devices and chemicals, and pool management is performed using such specialized knowledge. The fact is that the teachers at school are heavily loaded. Therefore, recently, the number of cases in which pool maintenance management is entrusted to an external specialist is increasing. However, even when the maintenance and management of the pool is entrusted to an external specialist, there is no system for remotely controlling the data of the water amount and the water quality of the pool by communication via a telephone line.

[0003] In addition, as a problem of water level management of the pool, when the number of swimmers increases, the pool water overflows. Therefore, when the swimmers rise from the pool, the water level of the pool decreases. Therefore, a decrease in the water level of the pool is detected by the detecting means, and when the pool water level falls below a predetermined value, water is automatically supplied,
There are pool water level management devices that try to keep the pool water level constant.

However, in such a pool water level management, for example, in a replacement-type pool where the users are replaced at predetermined time intervals, the water supply and the swimming water of a large number of swimmers are performed every time the users are replaced. Overflow, water level drop, and water supply will be repeated. That is, in such water level management, a high water price is paid by using water resources luxuriously.

[0005]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention has been made in view of the above-mentioned problems, and the water level and water quality of a pool such as a school have been installed in a remote place and connected by communication means. The pool is managed by the remote management device of the pool, and when an abnormality occurs in the water level, water quality, device, etc. of the pool, an alert is transmitted to the remote management device of the pool, so that the administrator of the remote management device of the pool can make the pool available. It is possible to rush to the site where it is installed and remove abnormalities that occurred,
The purpose of the present invention is to provide a pool maintenance management remote monitoring system that responds by voice to an inquiry as to whether or not an abnormality has occurred from outside by telephone.

In response to a decrease in the pool water level due to an increase in the number of swimmers, water is not conserved each time, but water saving is achieved by monitoring the abnormal drop in the pool water level and limiting the number of times of water supply. It is an object of the present invention to provide a pool maintenance and management remote monitoring system that purifies pool water by continuing to supply water for a predetermined period of time when water is supplied.

The operation of the pool maintenance / management remote monitoring system 1 configured as described above will be described with reference to flowcharts. First, water supply is started due to a decrease in the water level of the pool 2, and an operation for purifying water quality by continuing to supply water even after the water is full will be described with reference to the flowchart of FIG.

First, when the water level of the pool 2 decreases due to an increase in the number of swimmers, etc., the water supply sensor E2a of the water level sensor 5
(See FIG. 4) detects the drop in the water level (step S).
1), the relay CR1 operates. With this, a contact CR
1 is turned on, the relay CR2 is turned on, and the a contact CR2 of the water supply valve circuit is turned on (step S2). here,
When a current flows through the automatic valve SV (reference numeral 4a in FIG. 1) to open the valve and start water supply, the water supply valve circuit is provided with a timer T2 as the water supply frequency limiting means. Whether the current flows through the automatic valve SV and the water supply is started is determined depending on whether T2 is ON or OFF. That is, when the timer T2 is OFF, no water is supplied because no current flows through the automatic valve SV.
Conversely, when the timer T2 is ON, a current flows through the automatic valve SV, so that the valve opens and water supply starts (step S4). By the operation of the timer T2, the number of times of water supply per day is limited.

When the pool 2 becomes full due to the above water supply, the full sensor E1a detects the fullness (step S5), whereby the relay CR1 is turned off and the a-contact CR.
1 is turned off (step S5). Conversely, the b-contact CR1 of the overflow circuit is turned ON, and the timed relay T1
(Step S6). Since the a-contact CR2 of the water supply power supply circuit forms a self-holding circuit for the relay CR2, even if the a-contact CR1 is turned off, the current continues to flow from the a-contact CR2 to keep the ON state. The a contact of the water supply valve circuit also keeps the ON state, the current continues to flow through the automatic valve SV, and the water supply continues.
During this time, the pool 2 is in the overflow state and the pool water is purified.

When the time set in the time relay T1 elapses (step S7), when the time relay T1 is turned on, the b-contact T1 of the water supply power supply circuit is turned off, so that the relay CR2 is turned off and the water supply valve circuit is turned off. a-contact CR2
Is turned off, thereby stopping the current supply to the automatic valve SV, closing the valve, and stopping the water supply (Step S).
8).

Next, a description will be given, with reference to the flowchart of FIG. 6, of an operation when a notification of the occurrence of an abnormality is sent to the remote monitoring device 30 via the telephone line 21 due to occurrence of an abnormality. Here, a case where the water supply to the pool is not stopped even after a predetermined time has elapsed will be described as an example. First, as described above, the timed relay T1 (see FIG. 4) is turned ON when a preset time elapses after the current flows, the automatic valve SV is closed, and the water supply is stopped.

Although not shown, the control wiring board 40 is provided with a monitoring unit for monitoring whether or not the timed relay T1 operates according to the set time. Does not operate, and therefore, when the water supply is continuing, the a contact T1 of the high pool water amount abnormal circuit 002 disposed on the control wiring board 40 is turned ON as described above. By this ON operation, the pool water amount high abnormality signal is transmitted to the CPU 20a of the alarm communication device 20 (see FIGS. 1 and 2) via the signal input unit 20f (step S10). In response, the communication control unit 20
h transmits a pool water amount high abnormality signal to the remote monitoring device 30 via the telephone line 21 (step S11).

In the remote monitoring device 30 (see FIG. 3), when the pool water amount high abnormality signal is received via the telephone line 21 under the control of the communication control unit 30f (step S12), a buzzer 30h is sounded to notify the user. With
The received content is displayed on the CRT 30d. The administrator can confirm the received alarm content on the screen of the CRT 30d. The content of the received alarm is also recorded in the management data storage unit 30g together with a management number, for example, a management number of 002 (see FIG. 4) in the case of a high pool water amount (step S13). This record
A predetermined operation of the keyboard 33 allows the printer 32 to print out. The administrator of the remote monitoring device 30 checks the received alarm content on the screen of the CRT or the content printed out, and solves the problem, for example, a warning of a decrease in the amount of chlorine solution without requiring special technical skills. If possible, call the designated person at the pool site,
Request the replenishment of chlorine solution. When a special technique such as stopping the motor is required, the administrator of the remote monitoring device 30 rushes to the site to solve the abnormality that has occurred.

The reception monitoring unit 20j of the transmission alarm communication device 20
In step S14, the remote monitoring device 30 monitors whether or not the reception has been normally performed (step S14).
a (see FIG. 1), and notifies the telephone answerer of the contents of the alarm (step S15). In this case, telephone 3
When the handset 4a is picked up, the response control unit 20i retrieves data relating to the content of the alarm to be transmitted from the data stored in the voice memory, sounds the data, and sounds the voice under the control of the communication control unit 20h. The message is transmitted to the telephone 34a via the line 21 and transmitted to the telephone answerer. In the reception monitoring unit 20j, when the telephone 34a does not respond, the telephone 34b is further called to notify the contents of the alarm. The above description also applies to the case where alarms are issued for the pool water amount low abnormality circuit 001, the batch alarm circuit 003, the chlorine liquid amount insufficient circuit 004, the chemical liquid amount insufficient circuit 005, and the circuits 006 and 007 relating to the residual chlorine concentration. The procedure is similar.

Next, a procedure for making an external call to the alarm communication device 20 and confirming whether or not an alarm has been issued will be described. First, the alarm communication device 2
A call is made to the telephone number set to the dedicated number toward 0. The response control unit 20i that has received the call via the communication control unit 20h of the alarm communication device 20 searches the contact state of each of the alarm circuits below the pool water volume low abnormality circuit 001 of the control wiring board 40, and If there is no, based on the voice data recorded in the voice memory 20d, "No abnormality" is answered by voice to the other party of the call. Conversely, as a result of searching for the contact status of each alarm circuit, if the alarm circuit whose contact is ON, for example, the alarm circuit for insufficient chlorine solution is ON, the response control unit 20i sets “004” There is a shortage of chlorine solution in the number ", and responds by voice based on the data recorded in the voice memory. As described above, in the present system, the abnormality is specified and reported to the management device installed in a remote place with the occurrence of the abnormality through the telephone line, and the external device is also provided with a telephone from outside. It is possible to inquire whether or not an abnormality has occurred.

It should be noted that the present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiment, but may take various forms. For example, a buzzer sound that is generated when an alarm is received by the remote monitoring device 30 is received. A different tone may be used in accordance with the content of the alert, and the content of the alert may be understood only by the tone of the buzzer. Also, as described above, the timed relay T1

As described above, according to the present invention, the water level and the water quality of a pool of a school or the like are managed remotely by, for example, a pool installation management company specially installed in a remote location and connected by communication means. It manages with the device, and when the water level and water quality of the pool, abnormalities of the device, etc. occur, it sends an alarm to the remote management device,
Further, it is possible to realize a pool maintenance management remote monitoring system that responds to an inquiry about the occurrence of an abnormality from the outside by telephone and makes this response by voice. For example, if this system is implemented in a school pool, teachers and the like as pool managers in the past will be free from the burden of acquiring specialized skills for pool management and practical pool management. Therefore, it becomes possible to concentrate on the guidance of children and students.

In addition, instead of supplying water in response to a decrease in the pool water level due to an increase in the number of swimmers, water level management is performed by limiting the number of times of water supply while monitoring an abnormal decrease in the pool water level. Water can be saved.
If this system is implemented in a school pool, for example,
As the number of working days of the pool on day 0, the water price is 3
It has been found that savings of 3 percent, or about 600,000 yen, can be made.

When water is supplied, the pool is kept in an overflow state by continuing to supply water for a predetermined time even after the water is full, thereby purifying the pool water.
