Water heater with water leakage detecting function

Abstract

The invention discloses a water heater which comprises an internal bladder, a water inlet pipe, a water outlet pipe, a heat source and an audio detector, wherein the internal bladder is used for containing a certain amount of water which can be heated; the water inlet pipe and the water outlet pipe are communicated with the internal bladder for transferring water flowing into the internal bladder and water flowing out of the internal bladder; the heat source is used for heating water in the internal bladder; and the audio detector is used for detecting audio variation caused by water leakage of the internal bladder. Because the audio detector is adopted, once the internal bladder leaks water, the corresponding audio variation can be detected in time, so that corresponding measures are taken for reducing the influence of water leakage on the ambient environment.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a water heater, in particular to a water heater capable of self-detecting whether the inner tank is leaking. Background technique [0002] Water storage water heaters have been widely used in families, bringing great convenience to people's lives. The storage type water heater usually includes an inner tank to store cold water that needs to be heated, and when it is needed to use, the cold water is pre-heated, and then the heated water flows out for use. Since water needs to be stored for a long time in the inner tank, and water and impurities in the water will corrode the inner wall of the inner tank, although more and more measures have been taken to slow down the corrosion of the inner wall of the inner tank, such as covering the inner wall with an anti-corrosion coating, but not The avoided liner will still corrode and cause an eventual leak. [0003] Existing water heaters use water leakage detection devices to detect wh...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

However, the above-mentioned water leakage detection devices can only detect water leakage after a period of time when the inner tank leaks, and during this period of time, the surrounding environment may have been affected to a certain extent; The overall structure becomes complex and takes up a lot of space
