Description

Water Sampler Having Means Water Lever

The present invention relates to a water collector for sampling water in an aqueous system, and more particularly, to a water collector provided with a water collector equipped with a means for measuring the depth of water.

Human beings need to drink a certain amount of water every day, and a large amount of water is needed for various purposes such as showering and washing. The water we need every day, especially tap water, is taken from river water or dam reservoir water, and then water is removed from various pollutants through water purification.

The intake source must meet the water quality standards for drinking water and analyze the type and concentration of pollutants by sampling the sample regularly or irregularly to see if it meets the water quality standards as a specific intake source. Especially during rainfall, careful water quality analysis is required because unintended contaminants can be washed away by rain and flow into the water.

On the other hand, as a sampling tool for analyzing the river water quality, Korean Patent Publication No. 1805077 (see Fig. 1) is a water collection cylinder temporarily fixed in the vertical direction; A pair of end sealing portions connected to the elastic member passing through the inside of the cylinder; A seal fixing ring portion extending outward from the pair of end sealing portions; A first trigger for activating horizontal rotation of the cylinder; An auxiliary cable connected to the first trigger and extending to the water phase; A first messenger descending along the auxiliary cable and releasing the first trigger; A second trigger for restraining and releasing the seal fixing ring portion; A main cable connected to the collecting cylinder and the second trigger and extending into the water phase; And a second messenger configured to move along the main cable to release the seal fixing ring portions carried by the second trigger, and at one end of the cylinder, further comprising a vertical fixing ring portion used to fix in the vertical direction. The horizontal trigger is disclosed in which the first trigger releases the vertical fixing ring portion by the first messenger and starts the horizontal rotation of the cylinder while the vertical fixing ring portion is restrained.

However, the water collector disclosed in the prior document has a problem that the trigger is complicated by the messenger in order to operate the sealing part connected to the elastic member, and the trigger does not work properly due to frequent hits, resulting in a short life.

On the other hand, in general, if the depth is less than 60 cm, water analysis may be performed by collecting only one sample regardless of the location, but if the depth exceeds 60 cm, three samples per depth should be collected. Therefore, the depth at the collection point must be measured first, and then the depth to be collected must be recalculated. In addition, there is a drawback that the efficiency of the work and measurement errors can be caused due to the need to separately operate the depth measuring equipment such as a bar or tape measure.

Hereinafter, a water harvester equipped with a water depth measuring function according to the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings. The same reference numerals are used for the same components in the drawings, and duplicate descriptions of the same components are omitted.

2 is an exploded perspective view of a water collector equipped with a water depth measuring function according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention. As shown in Figure 2, the water collector with a depth measuring function of the present invention, the body 110, the cap 120, the opening and closing means 130, the weight 140, the depth measuring sensor 150 and It comprises a lifting rope 160.

First, the body 110 will be described. The body 110 is a container for containing water located at a predetermined depth below a water surface such as a river or a lake required for water quality analysis. .

The upper portion is provided with a sample inlet 111 having a predetermined inner diameter for introducing a sample of water, and the side and the lower portion are sealed to prevent the introduced water from flowing out. A female thread is formed on the inner surface of the sample inlet 111 to facilitate coupling and separation with the cap 120, which will be described later.

On the other hand, the lower outer surface is provided with a protrusion 112 protruding downward a predetermined length, the male thread is formed on the outer surface of the protrusion 112, it is easy to detach from the weight 140 to be described later. In addition, the side portion is provided with one or more hooks 113, the lifting rope 160 is fixed through the hooks 113.

Next, the cap 120 will be described. The cap part 120 coupled to the sample inlet 111 of the upper part of the body 110 has a male thread formed under the outer part so that the sample inlet 111 can be easily detached from the male inlet method.

In addition, one or more through-holes 121 through which water can pass are drilled on the outer surface so that water at a desired position can be introduced into the sample inlet 111.

Subsequently, the opening and closing means 130 for introducing water into the sample inlet 111 will be described in detail.

Figure 3 is a perspective view for explaining the operating principle of the opening and closing means provided in the cap cap of the present invention, Figure 3 (a) is the water through the cap 120 can be introduced into the body 110 3 (b) represents a state in which water in the river does not flow into the sample inlet 111.

The opening and closing means 130 includes a moving shaft 131, a valve 132, an elastic body 133, and an opening and closing rope 134. One side of the moving shaft 131 is located in the cap portion 120 space portion, the other side is positioned to protrude to the outside of the cap portion 120, the opening and closing rope connecting hole for connecting the opening and closing rope 134 to the protruding moving shaft 131 ( 131 ') is formed.

The valve 132 is fixed to one side of the moving shaft 131 while being positioned in the cap 120 space. The elastic body 133 is positioned between the valve 132 and the upper inner surface of the cap 120 in a shape surrounding the moving shaft 131 to adjust the vertical movement of the valve 132, the opening and closing rope 135 is described above As described above, one side is fixed to the opening and closing rope connection hole 131 ′ of the moving shaft 131 and the other side thereof is extended upward to be easily gripped by hand.

Therefore, when the valve 132 is pulled up and closed the opening rope 134 to be located above the through hole 121, the water of the main surface flows into the cap portion 120 space portion through the through hole 121 and then to the sample inlet 111 It moves (FIG. 3 (a)).

On the contrary, the water does not enter the sample inlet 111 because the valve 132 is not pulled and the valve 132 is located below the through hole 121 (FIG. 3 (b)).

Referring to FIG. 2 again, a weight 140 having a predetermined weight may be further provided below the body 110. In general, the body 110 needs to be filled with water located at a predetermined depth, so that the body 110 must enter the water in a closed state without being filled with water. However, when the water depth is deep, the body 110 may not easily go into the water due to buoyancy. .

Weight 140 is to increase the weight of the body 110 to quickly enter the water. In particular, it is preferable to form a female thread on the inner surface of the upper opening to be able to be engaged with the male thread formed on the lower outer surface protrusion 112 of the body 110. This is to omit the weight 140 so that the operation is easy when the relatively shallow depth that can easily sink only by the weight of the body 110 itself.

The lower outer surface of the weight 140 is provided with a depth measurement sensor 150 that can measure the depth of the river. Prior to collecting the sample, the depth at that point must be measured, and then depending on the depth, the water collection and the depth of water to be collected should be determined. At this time, it is common to measure the depth of the sewage point by extending a long bar or tape measure into the water, and thus, it is difficult to accurately measure the water and has to carry a separate depth measuring tool at all times.

In the present invention, it is equipped with a depth measuring sensor 150, for example, a receiver built-in water receiver under the weight 140, it is possible to accurately measure the depth, and moreover, it is possible to work quickly. Here, since the transceiver-depth receiver corresponds to a known technique, the operation principle and the like will be omitted. In addition, it is more preferable that the water receiver embedded receiver, which is the depth measuring sensor 150, is detachably coupled to the weight 140 through various known means.

The lifting rope 160 is a rope for lifting the water out of the water when the body 110 is not lost when the water drop is completed. One side of the lifting rope 160 is connected to one or more hooks 113 formed on the side of the body 110, the other side that can be grasped by the hand, the scale to visually check how much the body 110 went into the water 161 is engraved.

4 is a schematic diagram showing a screen of a portable terminal having a water collecting application. In the present invention, a portable terminal 200 with an application may be used to conveniently manage information related to water collection and further maximize the efficiency of the work. Specifically, the portable terminal 200 may input various water quality and environmental information, including the location of the collection point, such as the temperature of the collection point and the pH of the collection point. In particular, the depth received from the depth measuring sensor 150 can be automatically stored and calculated at which depth in the water to be collected and displayed on the screen, thereby enabling quick operation.

Next, referring to FIG. 5 and FIG. 4, a method of collecting a sample using the above-described collector of the present invention will be described.

In the method of collecting a sample of the present invention, a first step of driving an application of the portable terminal 200, a second step of inputting a collection point, and the water collector 100 are located near the water surface to the depth measurement sensor 150. A third step of measuring the depth of water, a fourth step of determining the water depth to be collected, and a fifth step of collecting the sample by moving the water collector 100 to the position determined in the fourth step.

Specifically, in the first step of driving the application of the portable terminal 200, the application is prepared to receive a signal from the depth measurement sensor 150 by driving the application. The second step of inputting the water collecting point is a step in which the worker inputs where the water collecting point is. Of course, it is also possible to enter additional information as well as the collection point.

In the third step of measuring the depth by the depth measuring sensor 150, as shown in Figure 5, the depth measuring sensor 150 is a step of hanging down the water collector 100 so as to be as close as possible to the water surface, at this time depth measurement The sensor 150 transmits data to the portable terminal 200 to determine the depth of water at the location.

The fourth step automatically calculates the number of collection times and the depth to be collected according to the depth received from the depth measurement sensor 150. For example, if the depth is relatively deep, such as 2m, the operator does not need to calculate separately by expressing both 1/3 and 2/3 points from the surface.

In the fifth step, the water collector 100 is dropped into the water to the position determined in the fourth step. The worker drops the water collector 100 into the water while watching the scale 161 of the lifting rope 160, and after entering the predetermined depth, operates the opening opening and closing means 130 to start the water collection. The operating principle of the opening and closing means 130 is the same as described above will be omitted.

When the water is completed, the lifting rope 160 may be lifted and placed in a separate sample analysis container. Meanwhile, before or after the first and fifth steps, various water quality data such as water temperature and pH at the collection point may be separately measured and input to the application.

The specific parts of the present invention have been described in detail above, and to those skilled in the art, these specific descriptions are merely preferred embodiments, and the scope of the present invention is not limited thereto. It is apparent to those skilled in the art that various changes and modifications can be made within the scope and spirit of the art, and such variations and modifications are within the scope of the appended claims.
