2. Description of the Related Art As a method for ensuring a predetermined water pressure for water supply, a method of installing a distribution reservoir at a predetermined height and ensuring a necessary water supply pressure by the head pressure (pressure due to a head), A method of installing a pressure pump in various places of the main pipe is adopted. In this way, after securing the water supply pressure of the water supply, the on-off valves are arranged in various places of the main pipe to adjust the opening degree thereof to adjust the water supply pressure from each terminal pipe. In the former case, that is, in the water supply system that secures the water supply pressure by the head pressure of the distribution reservoir, the terminal pressure is insufficient due to the expansion of the water supply area and the temporary increase in water consumption, and sufficient water supply cannot be performed. There are quite a few situations. Further, in the latter, since the pressure pumps are installed in places, the construction cost, maintenance cost, and operation cost are high, so reduction of these costs is required. Although it is a centrifugal pump, its pump capacity is constant regardless of the amount of water consumed, so the amount of water consumed is set because the pump capacity is set according to the time zone when the water is consumed maximum. The main pressure in a small time zone becomes higher than necessary. Then, in order to cope with the increase in demand for the existing water supply system, measures are taken to add a pressure pump to the terminal pipe where the water pressure becomes particularly low.

[Operation] The water pressure in each main terminal pipe is detected by the pressure detection device provided in the main terminal pipe of the water main, and when the detected pressure of any one of the main pipes is lower than the predetermined pressure, the Control the rotation speed of the pressure pump to increase the pressurization pressure,
This restores the water pressure in the terminal pipe.
When the detected pressures of all the terminal pipes are equal to or higher than the predetermined value, the rotation speed of the pressurizing pump is reduced so that the water supply pressure in the terminal pipe having the lowest water supply pressure is maintained at the predetermined pressure. The water pressure of each terminal is high during the time when the water consumption is low, and the water pressure of most terminals is low during the time when the water consumption is high, so the pressure pump is low during the time when the water consumption is low. It is controlled by the rotation speed, and the pressurizing pump is controlled by the high rotation speed during the time period when the water consumption is high. Therefore, the most efficient control of water pressure is performed. The cost to attach a pressure detection device to each terminal is significantly lower than that to attach a pressure pump to each terminal pipe, and the pressure measurement information in each terminal pipe is sent to the control device wirelessly. Among the signals from the transmitters of all terminal pipes, the one with the lowest pressure is used as the reference, and the pressurizing pump is controlled so that it recovers to the specified pressure. It is significantly less expensive than the case where a pressure pump is attached to the pipe. For example,
In a water supply system that can sufficiently respond to the head pressure of the reservoir during times when consumption is relatively low, pressurization by the pressurizing pump will not be performed during those times.
Pressurization by the pressurizing pump is performed only during a time period when the consumption amount is relatively high. Since the rotation speed of the pressurizing pump is controlled steplessly by the inverter, the control of its discharge pressure is performed easily and precisely, and pressurization to a higher pressure than necessary is avoided. When the rotation speed of the pressurizing pump is increased in order to maintain the pressure at a specific terminal of the water mains at a predetermined pressure, it is also expected that the pressure at the outer terminal pipe becomes higher than necessary. However, in practice, the water pressure in most of the terminal pipes also varies depending on the time zone, so even if the pressure in the outer terminal pipe becomes higher than necessary, the degree is not particularly large. Also,
Recent water mains are made of materials with excellent strength such as ductile cast iron pipes and high-strength plastics (pressure resistance is 1
Since the pressure is 0 to 15 kg / cm 2 ), an excessively high pressure in the outer terminal pipe does not affect the strength of the water mains. Regarding the water supply system in a specific area, continue the above operation, collect the operation data of the pressurizing pump, create an operating program for one day based on this, and program-control the pressurizing pump by this. However, in this case as well, the pressure of each terminal pipe of each water main varies depending on the season, so it is necessary to collect pressure measurement data with a pressure detection device and change the program accordingly.

[Example] Next, a simple example in which the present invention is applied to an existing water supply system will be described with reference to the drawings.
A distribution reservoir 1 is provided at a predetermined height position, and a gate valve 3 is provided in a water main 2 connected to this distribution reservoir 1. Submersible pump 4 is installed in distribution reservoir 1 and its discharge pipe 4a
Is connected to the existing gate valve 3. This submersible pump 4
Has a maximum discharge pressure of 3.0 kg / cm 2 . A large number of main terminal pipes 5 are connected to the water mains 2, a pressure detecting device 6 is arranged in the main terminal pipe 5, and a transmitter 7 is connected to the pressure detecting device 6. Control device 8 in distribution reservoir 1
Is attached, and the receiver 9 is connected to the control device 8. The water pressure of the terminal pipe 5 is constantly measured by the pressure detection device 6, and the measurement information is transmitted from the transmitter 7 and received by the receiver 9 of the control device 8. Terminal tube 5
If the water pressure does not drop below the specified value,
The submersible pump does not operate, and water is supplied by the head pressure of the reservoir. When the water pressure of any of the terminal pipes 5 falls below a predetermined reference value, the submersible pump 4 is operated at a rotation speed corresponding to the difference between the reference value and the measured value, whereby the water pressure of the terminal pipe 5 is set to a predetermined value. Restore the pressure up to. Although various methods can be adopted for controlling the submersible pump, the standard pressure is 1.2 kg / cm 2 because the terminal pressure of normal water supply is regulated to be 1.2 kg / cm 2 or more.
If so, 1.2 ± 0.2 kg / cm 2 may be set, and the rotational speed of the submersible pump may be controlled by feedback control. Alternatively, the difference between the reference value and the actual measurement value may be taken and this difference is used as the reference. The rotation speed of the pump is set as a constant speed operation at that speed, the water pressure of each terminal pipe is checked at intervals of 10 minutes, and the difference between the reference pressure and the actual measurement value is checked. Can also be set sequentially. The pressure of the water supply system with the reduced water supply pressure can be recovered as described above, but when the submersible pump is operated at the maximum rotation speed, it is pressurized by 3.0 kg / cm 2 . Therefore, it has the same effect as increasing the height of the distribution reservoir by 30 m to restore the water supply pressure.

[Effects] As described above, the present invention adds a simple device to a water supply system in which it is impossible to supply water at a predetermined pressure wholly or partially due to an increase in water supply houses and the addition of terminal pipes. By doing so, the prescribed water supply pressure can be restored, and it is possible to flexibly and easily respond to the pressure drop of each terminal pipe due to the fluctuation of the consumption of tap water, and the equipment cost thereof. The operating cost can be reduced as much as possible. In addition, since the pump discharge pressure is continuously changed by controlling the rotation speed by the inverter, it is easy to control the pump rotation speed to cope with the water pressure fluctuation of each terminal pipe of the water main by using a simple control device. And, it can be done with precision.
