Description

BACKGROUND ON THE INVENTION

This invention is a improvement apparatus that can operate in 4 seasons; spring, summer, fall and winter. During the winter, the apparatus can remove snow from any surface with just a gentle repeated sprinkling of heated saline fluid. Solving the problem of winter operations of a summertime sprinkler system resulted in the birth of an innovation that had never existed before. Preventing a summertime sprinkler head from freezing in the winter during operations to remove snow during harsh in climate weather is the purpose of the heated underground circulation manifold pipeline and heated underground sprinkler pipe line assembly. While the sprinkler head is at rest during harsh in climate weather the apparatus continues to prevent freezing. A heated underground circulation manifold pipe line and heated underground sprinkler pipe line assembly is the so reason this invention can operate during winter months. The u shaped bend in the heated underground circulation manifold pipe line and heated underground sprinkler pipe line assembly is adjacent to the sprinkler head port housing, concentrating heat to the housing port and sprinkler head. A non electric hot water operated salt processor is another unique unit I had to invent. The non electric hot water operated salt processor needs no electricity to operate. This hot water operated unit can melt salt and mix salt without the use of a mixer because of the two filters that strain the salt, making salt clumps an impossibility inside the non electric hot water operated salt processor drain pipe. This creates a slow drain through the filters and allow for more water to come into contact with the salt, but enough to make a valuable hot saline fluid to melt snow with.
The non electric hot saline operated thermal fluid collector, another invention I had to create for this hot water snow removal apparatus is an important hub for connecting the heated underground circulation manifold pipe line and heated underground sprinkler pipe line assembly. The non electric hot saline operated thermal fluid collector gathers all the pipeline connected to the sprinkler head there, then distributes them in different directions at the snow removal assignment or owner property. Heated saline is also collected the non electric hot saline operated thermal fluid collector where it automatically flows into sprinkler line, sprinkler head, and manifold pipe lines. The earthen conduit, another invention I created, just makes perfect sense if I was going to build this type of snow removal apparatus. Encasing the heated underground circulation manifold pipe line and heated underground sprinkler pipe line assembly and housing port for the sprinkler head is what builds upon the heat already inside the pipe line by containing the heat from the manifold line. I call this, regulating maintenance heat Having heat pumps that can operate independently of a hot water supply was absolutely necessary and they are an indispensable part of the apparatus. They can operate independently and heat saline fluid if other heating appliances in the apparatus falter.

FIELD OF THE INVENTION

Embodiments of this apparatus for melting snow on any surface includes; a 2 way electronic computer controller plugged into a 220 volt electrical outlet; a hot water heater, an electro mechanical principle assembly/reduced pressure zone backflow preventer; a non-electric hot water operated salt processor to make a heated saline fluid for use in melting snow, a primary heat pump, hot water storage tank, spigot, electronic timer and back flow splitter, non-electric hot water operated thermal fluid collector, secondary heat pump, underground earthen conduit installed at a 30 to 45 degree angle regulating the heat encompassing a heated underground recirculation manifold pipe lines and heated underground sprinkler pipe line assembly.

RELATED ART

The present patent application Ser. No. 12/932,266 may be related to outdoor sprinkler deicers which use chemical applications to defeat icing on surfaces. (See Zaharis, U.S. Pat. No. 7,721,975 Filing date: May 17, 2006 Issue date: May 25, 2010. Application Ser. No. 11/435,641). Citing Zaharis disclosure in his summary, Zaharis describes an invention which “utilizes a high temperature salt brine delivery method that is fifty or more times as salty as sea water to device highways using much less salt in a brine form than is required using the current methods of dispensing deicing salt crystals with or without adjuncts such as molasses or waste beet juice. The use of adjuncts such as waste beet juice and or molasses will hold the deicing brine in place as it is sprayed on to the surface to be cleared of ice and snow and will not be rinsed away and lost as the waste beet juice or molasses will stay in place due to its sugar content as it is a very sticky substance. The highly saturated salt brine will be delivered in a much smaller volume to reduce run off and salt water pollution. (see, Zaharis). My apparatus is utilizing a hot water supply for melting snow on surfaces, and specifically solving the problem of continued operation of a hot water snow removal apparatus during below freezing weather while eliminating ice buildup inside sprinkler pipe line and sprinkler head.
The hot water snow removal apparatus described in patent application Ser. No. 12/932,266 is an improvement over the prior art. Neither Zaharis nor Calabrese has a heated underground circulation manifold pipeline and heated underground sprinkler pipe line assembly, or a non-electric hot saline operated thermal fluid collector. Neither does the prior art teach utilizing a principle assembly comprising reduced pressure zone back flow preventer to prevent hot saline fluid from backing up in to the hot water heater, nor are Zaharis or Calabrese or the prior art teach regulating directional control of the above ground heated sprinkler pipe line by connecting a non-electric, hot saline operated thermal fluid collectors top chamber rear coupler to the above ground sprinkler pipe line. The prior art does not teach plugging in a heat pump that increases the temperature of water as hot water is cycled through the heat pump to a 220 volt electrical wall outlet at a home or facility and connecting an electrically operating 2 way electronic computer controller to control the on and off operation of the secondary heat pump so that it may act independently over all other saline heating sources within a hot water snow removal apparatus.
The prior art does not teach a method of making heated saline in a non-electric, hot water operated salt processor for the purpose of supplying heated saline for operation of a hot water snow removal apparatus. The prior art does not teach regulating temperatures of the heated underground circulation manifold pipe line and heated underground sprinkler pipeline comprising; installing a earthen conduit built at a 30 degree angle to 45 degree angle the entire length of the heated underground circulation manifold pipe line and heated underground sprinkler pipe line assembly; by connecting a earthen port at ground level to the earthen conduit to house the sprinkler head, leaving the sprinkler head partially exposed to the above ground elements. (See Zaharis, U.S. Pat. No. 7,721,975 Filing date: May 17, 2006 Issue date: May 25, 2010. Application Ser. No. 11/435,641) and (see Calabrese 20060204647). Zaharis failed to prevent freezing of the boom once the deicer drains of salt brine and the truck journeys back to the salt truck garage to replenish his system with salt brine fluid.
Zaharis discloses, the use of adjuncts such as waste beet juice and or molasses holding the deicing brine in place as the brine is sprayed on to the surface to be cleared of ice and snow and will not be rinsed away and lost as the waste beet juice or molasses will stay in place due to its sugar content as the brine is a very sticky substance.
Sugary substances could cause an insect infestation around residential properties. Especially attracted to sugary substances are ants, flies, roaches and other insects attracted to fructose or other sugary substances such as molasses. During the spring thaw these sugary substance are imbedded in grasses, dirt roads and dirt parking lots, grass trimmings of roads and parking lots. Zaharis' invention deals specifically with improving deicing and snow removal on highways, bridges, roads and streets. This hot water snow removal apparatus is an improvement over Zaharis and teaches snow removal on residential properties such as grasses, porches, patios and small fenced in private parking driveways, and is a sprinkler system with less the worry of salty run off into city drains because it uses less salt and, utilizes iodized salts which are not poisonous to the majority of humans.
The temperature used to operate the hot water snow removal apparatus does not endanger humans neither in the form of scalding injury, or inhaling the saline fluid from the apparatus. The invention utilizes a low pressure sprinkler head and not a boom. By definition a boom is a pipe with attached nozzles for distributing spray from a tank.
A spray is (according to online dictionary) 1. To disperse
A liquid in a mass or jet of droplets.
A sprinkler: any of various devices for sprinkling, as a watering pot, a container of water with a perforated top used to sprinkle clothes before ironing, or especially a perforated ring or small stand with a revolving nozzle to which a hose is attached for watering a lawn with a fine, even spray.
2. A person who sprinkles.
This subtle difference in Zaharis and Heard allows for and teaches a wider varied use in the art. I submit patent application Ser. No. 12/932,266 apparatus teaches a gentler and safer application of a snow removal solution and is quite different from a spray or a jet of droplets.
The apparatus in this application for patent is a stable, immobile, installed apparatus with the heated sprinkler lines and heated manifold line installed in the ground with the sprinkler head protruding out of the ground, encased by an underground earthen conduit and earthen port housing for the apparatus sprinkler head. this is much more economical than either Zaharis or Calabrese. The apparatus is a new use for a hot water snow removal apparatus with heated manifold pipes attached to the sprinkler for heating. This use of the heated manifold pipes that allow for exposure to harsh winter conditions of the sprinkler head and sprinkler pipe lines makes operation in the winter feasible.
The apparatus has no need for fueling a truck or other mobile vehicle for the application of iodized salt solution to any road surface or street surface. It can easily be installed near roads to effect snow removal on highways as well as city streets, city pavements and large and small outdoor parking lots. Further, there is no need for front loaders such as the front loaders mentioned in Zaharis. Ten and twenty and fifty pound bags of iodized salt easily maintain enough salt water to make the hot water snow removal apparatus effective.
Zaharis teaches overflow return lines from individual spray booms and to combination salt brine storage and mixing tank. Patent application Ser. No. 12/932,266 teaches a circulation heated manifold apparatus that is separate from the sprinkler line but is an attachment to the sprinkler line and sprinkler head. The loop in the manifold line causes a heating of the sprinkler line and head. The sprinkler line from the hot water storage tank delivers the heated saline fluid to the sprinkler head. The manifold line to which I refer do not control overflow in patent application Ser. No. 12/932,266 description of the invention. The manifold causes a continuous flow of heated saline fluid looping through the manifold lines back to the non electric hot saline operated thermal fluid collector. The heated saline fluid inside the manifold lines is used to keep the sprinkler line and heads from freezing, open and hot, maintaining the operability of the hot water snow removal apparatus in inclimate, winter weather. The manifold is a method of circulation, cycling hot fluids through the manifold lines to a thermal fluid collector and that is the manifold component of the apparatus and the only function. Zaharis does not claim such a use as described in patent application Ser. No. 12/932,266. This is an improvement over overflow return lines from individual spray booms and to combination salt brine storage and mixing tank.
Zaharis does not teach an apparatus that cannot operate in any type of freezing weather. He teaches a deicer dependent on the mobility of vehicles, i.e., salt trucks with the ability to deliver salt brine to a road or area, driving over the area to deliver deicing fluids, i.e., salt brine. However there is a disadvantage to Zaharis. Sometimes, winter weather is so severe snow deicing trucks are inhibited by large amounts of snow fall, 4 feet or more, which prevent snow deicing trucks from being effective making delivery of deicing fluids to roads an extreme challenge and sometimes impossible. Removal of snow in these instances of heavy snow falls often need the use of snow plows first, and then only to make way for deicing trucks and their method of deicing streets. Secondly, the trucks are at best only utilized on main roads taking days to open street arteries that lead to important sectors of a city. Patent application Ser. No. 12/932,266 teaches an apparatus with heated pipe lines and heated sprinkler lines already installed underground and in place at location. All is needed is to turn the apparatus on at intervals of an half hour to prevent these types of 4 foot snow fall accumulations eradicating the need for Zaharis mobile deicer.
Patent application Ser. No. 12/932,266 clearly teaches an advantage over Zaharis snow deicing invention when it comes to snow removal from roads and properties using salt or Brine. Patent application Ser. No. 12/932,266 apparatus is already installed, in place and interdicting snow before snow accumulates to nearly inoperable snow fall levels making deicing trucks unnecessary. This too is an improvement over Zaharis.
Zaharis use of Deicing trucks puts his deicer at a disadvantage to patent application Ser. No. 12/932,266 system. Driving a truck over properties with grasses, and decorative items can present a problem to the property owner. The truck would cause damage to the grounds leaving deep tire tracks and tears in the ground. And, the boom may not reach places where there are decorative items such as a patio or portico on the property or lawn. And, if the snow accumulation is high enough it can cause vehicles to get stuck and need the assistance of a tow truck to remove the snow removing vehicle. This could cause further problems during deicing on the owners' property and the owner could incur further economic costs. The abilities of an installed in the ground and operating snow removal apparatus are an improvement over Zaharis.
Further, Zaharis does not use a heated sprinkler and mentions nothing of a sprinkler but a boom with a hot brine line and line connecting hot brine to spray booms and lines connecting brine tank to spray booms . . . .
The item labeled brine tank in figure one (see Zaharis) is the tank used to hold salt, used to make the hot saline brine and also act as a mixing and recirculating tank to maintain the mixture in suspension for spraying upon the road surface. The purpose of Zaharis' Brume Tank is to dissolve the salt and mix molasses and other chemicals and he uses electricity to mix his brine solution. The purpose of a non electric hot water operated salt processor in patent application Ser. No. 12/932/266, is to only dissolve iodized salt into hot water and guide the salty fluid turned into hot saline fluid to the primary heat pump. The non electric hot water operated salt processor does not recirculate the heated saline solution.
The hot water storage tank in patent application Ser. No. 12/932,266 is the tank designated to recirculate heated saline solution and hold the mixture of saline solution to be dispensed to the sprinkler lines and the recirculation manifold. The non electric hot saline operated thermal fluid collector with the sprinkler lines attached aids in recirculation of heated saline solution. These are improvements over Zaharis. The components are stable and installed in an indoor environment with sprinkler pipe line installed underground inside an earthen conduit. The apparatus in patent application Ser. No. 12/932,266 never need to be loaded onto a vehicle to be transported to a destination to do a deicing assignment. This elimination of vehicles and fuel for transporting the apparatus, or fuel for mileage to accomplish deicing of roads, is considerably less expensive and is an improvement over Zaharis.
The primary source of heated water and hot water pressure is the hot water heater. The art teaches a allocated systemized pressure of heated saline fluid that is maintained by the hot water heater, the hot water storage tank and the heat pumps. As the hot water passes through the primary and secondary heat pump they will additionally heat the water and help maintain the temperature and pressure of the heated saline solution. The heat pumps are an improvement over Zaharis in that they do not need a heat exchanger that must operate alongside the pumps (see Zaharis electric pump associated with heat exchanger) If the hot water storage tank fails to heat the water the heat pump connected to the manifold pipe line will continue to heat saline solution and to circulate hot saline solution. As the saline circulates through the pump the hotter the saline will become while providing and maintaining pressure simultaneously. This heating of saline solution and regulating pressure in this apparatus is an improvement over Zaharis.
Patent application Ser. No. 12/932/266 apparatus does not need a generator to produce a power supply. Instead, the invention utilizes an existing conventional in house 220 volt voltage supply. Only in extreme brown out or blackout conditions, may the owner of this proposed product want to use an electric generator or a generator needing fuel. This too, is an alternative that is an improvement over Zaharis' (See Zaharis detailed description). A non electric hot water operated salt processor does not produce electricity and cannot be compared to an electric generator. A non electric hot water salt processor only dissolves iodized salt into water to create the hot saline that is needed for deicing and guides heated saline solution into the apparatus using the drain pipe of non electric hot water operated salt processor. (see FIG. 3) (see Zaharis description below).
Calabrese attempts to solve the problem of freezing pipelines in his deicer using exceedingly high temperatures and by leaving high temperature salt brine in the pipelines when the deicer is not operating, (see Calabrese 20060204647). This still could lead to freezing and bursting of pipe lines once the pipe lines cool down and he restarts the system after long periods of exposure to freezing winter weather. If the cold pipe suddenly receives a rush of exceedingly high temperature fluids, the pipe lines expand and burst or crack leading to damage of the invention making the invention inoperable. Patent application Ser. No. 12/932/266 apparatus could sit weeks in freezing weather without sustaining damage. During a static stay of the sprinkler head in inclimate weather the manifold pipe line will continue to recirculate the heated saline solution and the sprinkler head will be operable continually and economically. If Calabrese leaves the deicer running in a huge snow storm, operating his system could get expensive for the property owner because of the large volumes of water and other chemicals needed to operate his deicer. (See Calabrese claim 39. The method and operation as described in claim 37, further comprising the step of waiting a specified period of time after the last zone has been deiced, and determining whether the air temperature is below the freezing point of water and whether the moisture content of the air is greater than 99%; and repeating the method of claims 33 through 39. The hot water snow removal apparatus mentioned in this patent application is more economical and solves the problem Calabrese faces because the heated underground circulation manifold pipe line and heated underground sprinkler pipe line connected to the sprinkler head is always present and heated saline solution is always heating the heated underground circulation manifold pipe line and heated underground sprinkler pipe line and sprinkler head when the sprinkler is operating and when the sprinkler is at rest. Especially, in the most severe of winter weather conditions.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

Therefore, the object of the present invention is to be able to operate in winter weather conditions where heavy snow falls are likely to impede snow removal efforts by ordinary means, such as salt trucks and snow plows that may get stuck attempting to operate in such winter weather conditions.
Another object of the present invention is to provide for a four season sprinkler. Switching from the hot water heater to a cold water outlet with a spigot will provide a lawn sprinkler for the properties lawn. By eliminating the salt inside a non electric hot water operated salt processor, turning the thermostat down to 40 degrees on the hot water storage tank the property owner will experience a nice warm lawn sprinkler system.
Still another object of the present invention is to provide a convenience of a snow removal service to the property owner eliminating the need for shoveling snow to remove snow from the property. At the push of a button from inside a home or facility snow can be removed from around the property with a gentle sustained sprinkle of warm saline solution.
An embodiment of the present invention uses a hot water supply for melting snow on any surface, while eliminating icy build up inside sprinkler pipe line and sprinkler head comprising; a 2 way electronic computer controller plugged into a 220 volt electrical outlet; a hot water heater, electro mechanical principle assembly reduced pressure zone backflow preventer, a non electric hot water operated salt processor to make a heated saline fluid for use in melting snow, a primary heat pump, hot water storage tank, spigot, electronic timer and back flow splitter, non electric hot saline operated thermal fluid collector, secondary heat pump, underground earthen conduit installed at a 30 to 45 degree angle, with a port housing for sprinkler head regulating the heat encompassing a heated underground recirculation manifold pipe line and heated underground sprinkler pipe line assembly; and sprinkler head.

A hot water snow removal apparatus includes utilizing a 2 way electronic computer controller FIG. 11 85 plugged into a 220 volt electrical outlet at a home or facility; utilizing the 220 volt electrical outlet at a home or facility and plugging in a hot water heater FIG. 1A into the electrical outlet to generate a minimum water temperature of 85 degree Fahrenheit; a hot water heater FIG. 1A which is the primary hot water supply. Connected to the hot out 10 on the hot water heater FIG. 1A is a electromechanical principle assembly/reduced pressure zone back flow preventer FIG. 2. In line with this electromechanical principle assembly reduced pressure zone back flow preventer is a non electric hot water operated salt processor FIG. 3A, a primary heat pump FIG. 4 which is a hot water pump except the primary heat pump increases the temperatures as water is cycled. The non electric, hot water operated salt processor FIG. 3B top 16 unscrews from the main body of the top chamber and bottom chamber FIG. 3A 23, 29 exposing the inside of the non electric, hot water operated salt processor FIG. 3A. The top of the salt processor, [FIG. 3A] is threaded 20 at both the top and at the main body. The hot water heater, FIG. 1A, the primary and secondary heat pumps FIG. 4 FIG. 6 and the hot water storage tank FIG. 5A is used to control temperature in the apparatus. A earthen conduit built at a 30 degree angle to 45 degree angle encasing the entire length of the heated underground recirculation manifold pipe line and heated underground sprinkler pipe line assembly also control and maintain temperature in the hot water snow removal apparatus.
The threading 20 accommodates the two halves joining. The non electric hot water operated salt processor. FIG. 3A is filled with iodized salts suitable for the removal of snow, such as iodized salt or iodized rock salt. There, the iodized salts are sprayed with hot water from a spray nozzle 19 and filtered using duo filters. FIG. 3C, 21 in the top chamber and 24 bottom chambers FIG. 3A The heated water with the new ingredient flow thru to duo filters 21, 24 and into the bottom chamber FIG. 1A 29 thru to a drain pipe 26 where heated saline solution is pushed along by the primary heat pump FIG. 4 into the hot water storage tank 5A. There, the heated saline solution is pumped through to a FIG. 9 spigot, 79, electronic timer, 80, and back flow splitter assembly, 81, electronic or mechanical, where the hot saline solution cycles thru to the above ground sprinkler lines, FIG. 8 72 the heated underground recirculation manifold pipe line and heated underground sprinkler pipe line assembly and the sprinkler head, and the base of the sprinkler head is regulated by heat this way FIG. 10 83.
A secondary heat pump FIG. 11 increases the temperature of hot saline solution as saline solution cycles through the inside of the secondary heat pump FIG. 11 This cycle assists in managing the hot saline solution by pumping the hot saline solution through the manifold pipeline adjacent to the sprinkler lines FIG. 8,75, 77 and sprinkler head FIG. 10, 82. This secondary set of lines or underground manifold pipelines FIG. 8 75, 77 are called the heated underground recirculation manifold pipe line and heated underground sprinkler pipe line assembly and are regulated by heat to keep the primary underground sprinkler lines FIG. 8, 71 open and free from freezing during harsh wintry conditions. Because the underground pipe lines are closely aligned to one another, heat transference occurs preventing the underground sprinkler lines FIG. 8 71 from freezing. This heat escaping from the heated underground recirculating manifold pipe line and sprinkler pipe line assembly FIG. 8, 75, 77 toward the port housing the sprinkler head FIG. 8, 83 engulfing it in heat vapors, is the so reason the sprinkler head FIG. 8, 83 will not freeze.
The earthen conduit, not shown, around the heated underground recirculation manifold pipe line and heated underground sprinkler pipe line assembly FIG. 8, 75, 77 and FIG. 8, 72 helps to guide the heat toward the objective of regulating maintenance heat through those portions of the sprinkler apparatus above ground and exposed to harsh wintry elements. This heat regulation is effective because of the installation of the conduit in the ground at an angle. This is, installing the heated underground recirculation manifold pipe line and heated underground sprinkler pipe line assembly FIG. 8 at a 30 degree to 45 degree angle to enable the heat to move upward along the length of the heated underground recirculation manifold pipe line and heated underground sprinkler pipe line assembly, FIG. 8, to keep the lines open and prevent freezing.
Heating temperatures of the saline fluid can vary depending on the ambient temperatures of the environment the hot water snow removal apparatus may have to endure. Ideal regulatory temperatures are considered to be 85 degrees Fahrenheit for the heating of underground sprinkler pipe line connected to FIG. 8, 72 the heated underground recirculation manifold pipe lines FIG. 8, 75, 77. Temperatures in the hot water storage tank FIG. 5A are also ideal at 85 degrees but can be considerably higher if freezing conditions the hot water snow removal apparatus encounter warrant it. The return line FIG. 8 for the underground heated recirculation manifold pipe lines 77 are entered into the non electric hot saline operated thermal fluid collector bottom chamber at a coupler FIG. 7 61, 62, 63, or 64 where they emerge as a single return line FIG. 7, 57 into the secondary heat pump FIG. 56 and from the secondary heat pump FIG. 56 into the hot water storage tank FIG. 5A at circulation 45.
The circulation manifold pipe line out, not shown, from the hot water storage tank FIG. 5A, 44 enters into the non electric hot saline operated thermal fluid collector FIG. 7 thru the rear coupler 54 at the upper chamber exterior 53. This line becomes multiple lines leaving the non-electric hot saline operated thermal fluid collector FIG. 7 at the upper chamber exit ports and couplers 65, 66, 67, or 68. The manifold pipe lines FIG. 8 75 carry the hot saline out to heat the recirculation manifold pipelines FIG. 8, 75, 77 or they are the vessels that harness the intake of fluid that begins the process of heating the manifold 75, 77 and sprinkler pipe lines 72. The above ground pipe line enter the non electric hot saline operated thermal fluid collector. The heated underground recirculation manifold pipe line and heated underground sprinkler pipe line assembly attaches to 75, 77 and sprinkler lines 72 exiting the thermal fluid collector FIG. 7 extend like tentacles are adjacent to the sprinkler head port housing FIG. 8, 71 and sprinkler head FIG. 10 83 that is connected to the sprinkler lines FIG. 8 72 attaching at the bottom using a y connector 73 and then returning from a loop 75, 76, 77, or 78 to the non electric hot saline operated thermal fluid collector lower chamber at couplers 61, 62, 63 or 64 exiting the rear of the non electric hot saline operated thermal fluid collector as a single hosepipe 57 thru the secondary heat pump FIG. 6 and from there into the circulation coupler 45 at the hot water storage tank FIG. 5A.
The non electric hot saline operated thermal fluid collector FIG. 7 divides in halve 55 with the upper chamber 53 sectioned off from the lower chamber 60 dividing. At the point of their division are threaded portions 55 of each half which accommodate the assembly of the non electric hot saline operated thermal fluid collector FIG. 7. The two halves can literally screw together to make the non electric hot saline operated thermal fluid FIG. 7 whole.
A 2-way electronic computer controller FIG. 11 85 regulates the opening and closing of the electromechanical principle assembly reduced pressure zone back flow preventer FIG. 2 and can operate the on and off functions of the primary and secondary heat pumps FIG. 4, FIG. 6 as well as the electronic timer 80 at the spigot, 79 electronic timer, 80, and back flow splitter, 81.
The 2-way electronic computer controller 85 is designed to turn the sprinkler on at timed intervals at FIG. 9, the spigot, 79, electronic timer, 80 and back flow splitter 81, and at the electromechanical principle assembly/reduced pressure zone back flow preventer FIG. 2. These timed intervals are managed by a signal from the 2 way electronic computer controller to the electromechanical principle assembly/reduced pressure zone back flow preventer to release hot water from the hot water heater spigot into the hot water input of the electromechanical principle assembly/reduced pressure zone back flow preventer filling electromechanical principle assembly/reduced pressure zone back flow preventer with hot water. The hot water flows from there to the non-electric hot water operated salt processor. Once the iodized salt is added to the hot water in the nonelectric hot water operated salt processor the entireapparatus is filled with hot saline solution and the sprinkler head sprinkles any icy or snowy surfaces and prevents snow accumulations around properties. The 2-way electronic computer controller is used to turn the electronic timer on and off.
The electronic timer at the splitter FIG. 9, 80 can be manually set and electronically operated to actuate the functions of the sprinkler head after an inch of snow accumulation if desired or after 2 inches of snow accumulation or 3 to 8 inches of snow accumulation if desired to interdict snow accumulation.

Install the port housing of the sprinkler head so the sprinkler head is partially showing above ground. Install or sit the 2 way electronic computer controller in a dry convenient place for easy access and plug the 2 way electronic computer controller into a 220 volt electrical outlet of a home or facility.
Install the apparatus in the basement of the home or facility near the hot water heater or where ever the hot water heater may be suitably located by; connecting the electro mechanical principle assembly reduced pressure zone back flow preventer FIG. 14 to the hot water heater FIG. 1A spigot 10 using hosepipe not shown, Connect the electro mechanical principle assembly reduced pressure zone back flow preventer FIG. 2 15 using hosepipe not shown, to the non electric hot water operated salt processor FIG. 3A 18, FIG. 3A drain pipe output 28 using hose pipe, not shown, to the primary heat pump at FIG. 4 35.
Connect the primary heat pump at FIG. 4. to the other end of hosepipe leaving the primary heat pump FIG. 4. 36 to the hot water storage tank 5A water inlet coupler 49. Connect the spigot, electronic timer and back flow splitter FIG. 9, 79 to the hot out, coupler 38, on the hot water storage tank. Connect a sprinkler pipe line, not shown, to the back flow splitter 81. Connect the sprinkler pipe line leaving the back flow splitter 81 to the rear of the non electric hot saline operated thermal fluid collector coupler 54 at the top chamber.
Connect the underground sprinkler pipe line 74 to the top chamber of the non electric hot saline operated thermal fluid collector coupler at 68. Install FIG. 10. Sprinkler head 83 at 71 of the underground heated sprinkler pipe line 74. Connect the heated underground recirculation manifold pipeline and heated underground sprinkler pipe line assembly 76 to the top chamber of the nonelectric hot saline operated thermal fluid collector coupler FIG. 7, 67; connect the heated underground recirculation manifold pipeline and heated underground sprinkler pipe line assembly 78 to the non electric hot saline operated thermal fluid collector coupler FIG. 7 at 64; connect hosepipe to thermal fluid collector coupler FIG. 7 at 57 connect heat pump 51 to hose pipe leaving FIG. 7 57. Connect hosepipe leaving the heat pump 52, not show, to 45 recirculation coupler at hot water storage tank FIG. 5A. Connect, hosepipe, not shown, to recirculation coupler 44 at hot water storage tank FIG. 5A. Connect hosepipe exiting, hosepipe not shown, recirculation coupler 44 at hot water storage tank FIG. 5A to the rear of the non electric hot saline operated thermal fluid collector at coupler 56. Connect the two way computer controller FIG. 11 85 to the electromechanical principal assembly/reduced pressure zone back flow preventer at FIG. 2, the primary heat pump at FIG. 4, the secondary heat pump at FIG. 6, and the electronic timer at the splitter FIG. 10 82. Plug the hot water storage tank 5A into a 220 volt electrical outlet in the home or facility. Set the hot water storage tank thermostat 50 to 85 degrees Fahrenheit.
plug the heat pumps FIG. 4 and FIG. 6 into a 220 volt source at the home or facility electrical outlet. Plug FIG. 9, the electronic timer 80 at the back flow splitter 81 into a 220 volt electrical outlet in the home or facility. Turn on the electro mechanical principle assembly/reduced pressure zone back flow preventer FIG. 2 with the 2 way electronic computer controller 85 activate the electronic timer 80 at the back flow splitter 59 with the 2 way electronic computer controller 85, activate the primary and secondary heat pumps, FIG. 4 and FIG. 6 with the 2 way electronic computer controller.
Open the salt processor by unscrewing the lid. Pour iodized salt into the non electric hot water operated salt processor onto the top chamber filters inside. Close the lid and latch it shut. Make sure the hot water heater is operating properly by being certain the hot water heater has house hold voltage and is plugged in. (Normally the home has a 220 volts electrical capacity). If there is a gas operated hot water heater present check to be certain the pilot is operating properly under the burner. Be certain there is water inside the hot water heater. Set the thermostat on the hot water heater to 85 degrees. Turn the knob controlling the spigot on the hot water heater to the on position so water will flow into the electro mechanical principle assembly/reduced pressure zone back flow preventer. A principle assembly/reduced pressure zone back flow preventer is attached to the hot water heater spigot. The electromechanical principle assembly reduced pressure zone back flow preventer is there to prevent contaminating back up of hot saline fluid from entering into the hot water heater.
Plug in the hot water storage tank. Set the thermostat on the hot water storage tank to 85 degrees Fahrenheit. The hot water storage tank will become activated. The primary and secondary heat pumps will not engage until the heated saline fluid enters into the heat pumps at their inputs but they will be activated to run. The hot water will run from the hot water heater thru to the electromechanical principle assembly/reduced pressure zone back flow preventer then into the non electric hot water operated salt processor where the sprayer inside will spray hot water onto the iodized salt dissolving it into a hot saline solution. Check the site glass at the salt processor to ascertain the saline solution is moving properly through the salt processor and into the drain pipe. The hot saline solution leaves the non electric hot water operated salt processor through the drain pipe. The drain pipe directs the hot saline fluid to the primary heat pump on the input side. The primary heat pump helps to maintain the 85 degree temperatures while directing and pumping the hot saline fluid into the hot water storage tank where the temperature of the hot water storage tank has already been allocated to 85 degrees Fahrenheit.
From the hot water storage tank the fluid moves into the spigot, electronic timer and back flow splitter where the two way electronic computer controller sends a signal to open the electronic timer at the back flow splitter to let the hot saline fluid dispense into a sprinkler pipeline that is connected to the splitter at the hot water storage tank and into a non-electric hot saline operated thermal fluid collector, where the sprinkler pipe line becomes multiple heated underground sprinkler pipe lines connected to sprinkler heads. Once the fluid fills the sprinkler pipe lines the sprinkler heads began sprinkling the snow removal assignment.
Check the thermal fluid collector through the site glass at the top chamber and the site glass at the bottom chambers to see if saline solution levels are at proper operating levels. Proper levels are when saline solution reach near the top of the non electric hot saline operated thermal fluid collector in the top chamber and when saline solution levels reach near the top of the non electric hot saline operated thermal fluid collector bottom chamber. Improper levels can be corrected by adjusting primary and secondary heat pump FIG. 4, and FIG. 6 volume intake levels, or by opening the spigot further on the hot water heater allowing more hot water to flow into the shut off valve inlet of the electromechanical principle assembly comprising reduced pressure zone back flow preventer, or by manually opening the spigot further at the hot water storage tank manually by turning the spigot knob at the spigot electronic timer and back flow splitter. The heated underground recirculation manifold pipeline and heated underground sprinkler pipeline assembly that sits parallel to the sprinkler pipeline should be hot and recirculating saline fluid. To ascertain this operation is occurring as intended check the hot water storage tank inspection and the non electric hot water operated thermal fluid collector bottom chamber site glass for hot saline solution levels.
To turn the apparatus off set the two way controller to instruct the electromechanical principle assembly reduced pressure zone back flow preventer to deactivate after one hour intervals or whatever hourly intervals the operator of the apparatus would like to have the apparatus operating. The electromechanical principle assembly reduced pressure zone backflow preventer closes at the water shut off valve inlet of the electro mechanical principle assembly reduced pressure zone back flow preventer and refuses to let any water through to the non electric hot water operated salt processor. To turn the apparatus back on reactivate the electro mechanical principle assembly reduced pressure zone backflow preventer by pushing the on button of the two way electronic computer controller.
The present apparatus has no dynamic specifications on degrees of temperatures of hot saline solutions other than the 85 degree minimum temperature specified, size of tanks, or volume of heat pumps, amount ratios of mixtures of iodized salt and water components are not mentioned because of the need to design the apparatus based on the particular environmental needs or problems the apparatus may encounter. The removal of snow from a residence will not require large specifications of apparatus that make the apparatus to facilitate removal of snow. But, the removal of snow from a city block of a municipality would require apparatus with larger specifications. In other words, environmental assessments would most probably be met with hot water snow removal apparatus tailored to meet the challenge the environment presented. Unused couplers on any tank in the apparatus are plugged during operation of the apparatus. The above ground sprinkler pipe line is one obvious sprinkler attachment to those skilled in the art of building outdoor sprinkler systems and are not shown or demonstrated for that reason.
While the above description constitutes the preferred embodiment of the present invention other advantages of the present invention will become apparent to those skilled in the art after having studied the foregoing text and drawings accompanying the claims.
