3 is a block diagram illustrating the configuration of a water quality control unit according to an embodiment of the present invention.

As shown in FIG. 3 , the water quality control unit 161 may include a speed setting unit 161a, a chemical input amount calculation unit 161b, an automatic setting unit 161c for each use target, and an automatic setting unit 161d for each type of water.

First, the speed setting unit 161a may control the operating speed of the purification facility for maintaining water quality. Specifically, the speed setting unit 161a may adjust the level of the filtration and purification operation upward or downward based on various sensing values related to swimming pool water, and may control the speed of the purification operation for this purpose.

For example, the speed setting unit 161a may adjust the speed for water purification based on a value measured by the amount of water collected in a temporary storage tank for storing water overflowing from the inside of the swimming pool. Specifically, the speed setting unit 161a may control to increase the filtration and circulation speed of water when the increase amount of water flowing into the temporary storage tank is equal to or greater than a preset value.

The drug input amount calculating unit 161b may perform an operation of calculating the drug input amount to be input in order to satisfy a requested level of water quality. For example, the water quality selected by the user (administrator) may be displayed as a level 1, 2, or the like. Accordingly, when the user changes the requested water quality level from step 1 to step 2, the chemical input amount calculating unit 161b calculates the required amount of medicine in consideration of the size of the corresponding swimming pool and the capacity of the currently stored water, and calculates the required amount of the drug by the user (administrator). ) can be indicated. Accordingly, the user (administrator) is notified of the amount of the drug to be additionally injected, and can grasp the information on the amount of the drug used.

The automatic setting unit 161c for each use object may automatically set the water quality level according to the use object of the swimming pool. For example, the automatic setting unit 161c for each use object may set the requested water quality level differently depending on whether the pool use object is a human or an animal. Alternatively, the automatic setting unit 161c for each use object may change the setting value of the water purification operation according to whether the pool use object is a human or an animal. For example, when it is confirmed that the swimming pool use target is an animal (eg, when an animal mode is selected by the user), the automatic setting unit 161c for each use target reduces the amount of drug use compared to the case where the subject is a human and uses the filter filter to intervene in the filtering operation. The number can be increased (for filtering animal fur).

The automatic setting unit 161d for each type of water may automatically set the level of the water purification operation corresponding to each type according to the type of water (eg, tap water, hot spring water, seawater, etc.). For example, in the case of hot spring water, the automatic setting unit 161d for each type of water may perform an automatic setting mode for hot spring water (eg, a type in which the use of chemicals is minimized and only suspended matter such as hair is removed with a filter). In addition, the automatic setting mode for seawater can be set in a way that both the amount of chemicals and the filtration filter level are adjusted upward compared to the automatic setting mode for tap water, and the automatic setting unit 161d for each type of water is set according to the type of water selected by the user. Set values for each water purification operation can be set automatically.

The water temperature control unit 162 according to an embodiment of the present invention may include a water temperature change response unit 162a and a control unit 162b for each purpose of use. Basically, the water temperature controller 162 may adjust the temperature of the supplied water to match the temperature requested by the user (administrator). In addition, the water temperature control unit 162 may control the operation of draining and supplying water to adjust the temperature of the water stored in the swimming pool inner space to the requested temperature.

The water temperature change response unit 162a according to an embodiment of the present invention may be performed during the expected use time based on the pool expected use time information input by the user, the current air temperature sensed through the sensor unit 130, the current pool water temperature, etc. It is possible to calculate the temperature change value of the expected swimming pool water. For example, the user may be requested to input the expected use time of the swimming pool from the control device 100 . Accordingly, the user may input the expected use time of the swimming pool. If the user inputs the expected usage time as 2 hours, how does the water temperature change response unit 162 change the temperature of the pool water for 2 hours, which is the expected usage time, based on the ambient temperature detected by the temperature sensor, the pool water temperature, etc. It is possible to predict whether or not it is possible, and it is possible to calculate the expected water temperature for each reference time unit (eg, 20 minutes).

In addition, the water temperature change response unit 162a may calculate the amount and temperature of hot or cold water to be applied to maintain the swimming pool water temperature in response to the predicted change in water temperature, and perform a water temperature control operation to which the water temperature control operation is applied.

In addition, the control unit 162b for each purpose of use may control the water temperature control operation according to the purpose of use of the container-type swimming pool according to an embodiment of the present invention. For example, the control unit 162b for each purpose of use may perform a water temperature control operation corresponding to a purpose of using a swimming pool, such as swimming education and a spa.

In addition, the water temperature control unit 162 may perform a water temperature control operation for each season and a water temperature control operation for each time of use. For example, when the use time is the night time, the water temperature controller 162 may increase the amount of hot water by a preset amount compared to the day time to adjust the water temperature. Also, according to various embodiments of the present disclosure, the water temperature controller 162 may statistic on electricity usage and control the water temperature control operation in response to the accumulated usage.

5 and 6 are flowcharts illustrating a water temperature control operation according to an embodiment of the present invention.

As shown in FIG. 5 , the controller 160 of the control device 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention may perform operation 505 of confirming a water temperature control request from the user. Thereafter, the controller 160 may perform operation 510 to determine whether the water temperature control request is manual control. When it is determined that the request for manual adjustment is made, the controller 160 may perform operation 530 to confirm that the user selects the requested temperature. Thereafter, the controller 160 may perform operation 535 of adjusting the water temperature to the requested temperature. In order to control the water temperature, the controller 160 may perform operations such as temperature control of feed water, drainage, and quantity control of feed water.

Meanwhile, when it is determined that the request for the automatic adjustment mode is not the manual adjustment mode, the controller 160 may perform operation 515 of requesting to select a mode for automatic adjustment. For example, operation 515 may be an operation of displaying a selectable mode for automatic adjustment on the display unit.

Thereafter, the controller 160 may perform operation 520 of confirming that a specific mode is selected by the user, and may perform operation 525 of automatically adjusting the water temperature in response to the selected mode.

As shown in FIG. 6 , the controller 160 may perform operation 605 to confirm that the water temperature automatic adjustment mode is selected by the user. Correspondingly, the control unit 160 may perform the following automatic water temperature control mode operation. In more detail, the controller 160 may then perform operation 610 to obtain a measured value of the ambient temperature. In addition, the control unit 160 may perform operation 615 to obtain information on the expected swimming pool usage time. The order of operations 610 and 615 may be changed.

The controller 160 may perform operation 620 of calculating a change in water temperature during the expected use time based on the obtained information. Accordingly, the control unit 160 may perform operation 625 of calculating the water temperature control period and the set temperature. Thereafter, the controller 160 may perform operation 630 of automatically adjusting the pool water temperature by applying the calculated value.

7 is a diagram illustrating an example of setting a pool partition according to an embodiment of the present invention.

According to various embodiments of the present disclosure, as shown in FIG. 7 , the controller 160 may set the swimming pool condition for each partitioned area in response to a case in which the swimming pool is divided according to the partition setting.

Specifically, according to various embodiments of the present invention, the movable container swimming pool can be prefabricated and changed in shape and size. And, as shown in FIG. 7 , the pool area may be divided into 710 and 720 due to the installation of the partition 701 . If the pool area is divided according to the partition installation, the user performs the 2 division mode (e.g., a mode that requests to divide the water temperature, water level, and water quality settings into 2 divisions) through an operation such as selecting the 2 division area mode in the control device 100 can make it

In addition, the controller 160 may directly determine whether the partition is mounted by receiving a signal generated according to the partition mounting. Referring to 702 , there is shown a portion 703 in which an area of the partition is fixed to the swimming pool body for mounting the partition. At this time, in one area 703 of the swimming pool body to which one area of the partition is fixed, parts (eg, a locking device for fixing the mounted partition as the partition is mounted, etc. ) may exist. In addition, a signal generating device corresponding to whether or not the parts performing the mechanical operation are operated may be connected to the swimming pool body, and a signal generated in response to the partition mounting may be transmitted to the controller 160 . The present invention is not limited to the example presented above, and the controller 160 may determine whether or not the partition is mounted by more various methods.

As the controller 160 determines whether or not a partition is installed, it may automatically perform an operation (eg, two-part mode) for setting a swimming pool condition corresponding to the divided area. Specifically, the controller 160 may control water supply and drainage, temperature control, etc. in response to the changed shape and size of the swimming pool. For example, when it is determined that the central area of the mobile container swimming pool is separated, the controller 160 determines that only a partial area (eg, 710 area) of the pool is used as the partition (separator) is mounted, and the corresponding swimming pool condition control operation can be performed. Alternatively, the controller 160 may request the user to input water level, water temperature, and water quality setting values for each of the 710 and 720 areas, and may perform the same.

According to various embodiments, a plurality of drain ports 801 for adjusting the water level may be installed according to the height of the swimming pool. Accordingly, the controller 160 may determine the current water level according to the height of the drain hole through which the overflowed swimming pool water is discharged.

Hereinafter, although not shown in the drawings, various embodiments that can be carried out in the present invention will be described.

The control device 100 according to various embodiments of the present disclosure may have various functions for controlling an emergency situation. For example, the control device may operate a signal (eg, a warning light) informing that diving is restricted until a predetermined time elapses from the time water starts being injected into the swimming pool, or until the water level satisfies a predetermined level. In addition, when the temperature of the water initially injected into the swimming pool is equal to or higher than a preset temperature, the control device may operate a signal (eg, a warning light) informing that the water supply is restricted until the water supply operation is finished to prevent burns.

A swimming pool formed of such a mobile container can be used as a spa, a dog swimming pool, a scuba diving training pool, and the like. Accordingly, the control device 100 may control a whirlpool device, a heating system, and the like.

In one embodiment, the swimming pool formed of a movable container can be used for survival swimming education of children or infants, and accordingly, the control device 100 assists in the efficient education of children or infants, and the internal environment of the swimming pool to enable safe education. can be adjusted.

In an embodiment, the control device 100 may collect state information of the swimming pool based on various sensors included in the sensor unit 130, and the sensors may be installed at various locations in the swimming pool.

For example, the sensors may be used to collect information about the surrounding environment, such as external temperature, and as another example, the sensors may include the water temperature, water level of a swimming pool, waves transmitted through the pool water, water pollution, and chemicals contained in the water. It can be used to detect ingredients and the like.

The controller 100 may drain the pool water, inject new water, or filter and re-inject the pool water based on the information about the pool collected from the sensor unit 130 .

For example, the control device 100 may count the number of people in the swimming pool based on information sensed by the sensor unit 130 . For example, the controller 100 may determine that a new person has entered the pool when the water level of the pool rises to a certain level or an impact due to diving is sensed.

In this case, the control device 100 may predict the body size of the person entering the swimming pool based on the intensity of the impact or the degree of increase in the water level. Similarly, the controller 100 may calculate the average body size of the people in the pool based on the number of people in the pool and the level of the pool.

When it is determined that people in the pool are infants, the controller 100 may lower the water level of the pool by draining water from the pool. Similarly, the control device 100 may estimate the height of people in the pool, and adjust the water level of the pool based on this.

According to an embodiment, the drained water is stored through filtering and purified water without being treated with sewage, and when it is determined that people with different body sizes enter the pool, it may be used to adjust the water level again.

In an embodiment, the control device 100 may analyze the information collected from the sensor unit 130 by using the artificial intelligence model, and may adjust the condition inside the swimming pool based on this. For example, the control device 100 may determine information about people in the swimming pool based on the learned artificial intelligence model based on the water level, water temperature, wave, etc. sensed by the sensors. The type of artificial intelligence model is not limited, but models learned based on machine learning, deep learning, reinforcement learning, etc. may be utilized.
