Abstract
The Wireless Pool Water Level Monitor and Water Filler is a device that maintains the water level in a pool between predetermined limits: an upper limit and a lower limit. The device comprises a sensor system, and a valve actuation system. The sensor system monitors the water level of the pool. The valve actuation system controls the water flow into the pool. The device may further comprise a mobile app and a main broker server. The mobile app remotely monitors the data gathered by the sensor system and remotely controls the valve actuation system and the water flow to the pool. The main broker server stores the data gathered from the monitoring of the water level of the pool.
Claims14
A wireless pool water level monitor and water filler device that maintains a water level of a pool between an upper limit water level and a lower limit water level, the wireless pool water level monitor and water filler device comprising:
- (a) a sensor system, the sensor system comprising:
- (i) a housing;
- (ii) a controller;
- (iii) a water level sensor unit, the water level sensor unit comprising:
- (1) an upper limit water level sensor, where the upper limit water level sensor identifies when the water level of the pool reaches the upper limit water level;
- and
- (2) a lower limit water level sensor, where the lower limit water level sensor identifies when the water level of the pool reaches the lower limit water level;
- (3) where the upper limit water level sensor is located above the lower limit water level sensor,
- (iv) a potentiometric system, the potentiometric system comprising:
- (1) an upper limit water level potentiometer, the upper limit water level potentiometer comprising:
- a positive leg and a negative leg;
- (2) a lower limit water level potentiometer, the lower limit water level potentiometer comprising:
- a positive leg and a negative leg;
- (3) where the upper limit water level potentiometer identifies when the water level of the pool has increased above the upper limit water level,
- (4) where the lower limit water level potentiometer identifies when the water level of the pool has decreased below the lower limit water level,
- (5) where the upper limit water level potentiometer is located above the upper limit water level and the upper limit water level sensor,
- (6) where the lower limit water level potentiometer extends from above the upper limit water level sensor to below the lower limit water level and the lower limit water level sensor,
- (v) a communication system;
- (vi) a power system;
- the power system comprising:
- (1) a power source;
- (2) a power controller;
- (3) a power storage device;
- and
- (vii) a temperature sensor;
- (viii) where the controller of the sensor system is operatively connected to the water level sensor unit, the potentiometric system, the communication system of the sensor system, the power system, and the temperature sensor,
- (b) a valve actuation system, the valve actuation system comprising:
- (i) a relay;
- (ii) a controller;
- (iii) a communication system;
- (iv) where the controller of the valve actuation system is operatively connected to the communication system of the valve actuation system.
