Abstract

The invention discloses a water conductivity and turbidity sensor for a home appliance, which have multiple functions and can prevent washing water from leaking. The sensor has a shell with a cylindrical structure, wherein the front end part of the shell is provided with a water conducting groove (102); electrode terminal holes (103) which run through the shell are arranged on the two sides of the bottom part of the groove; electrode positioning grooves (104) are formed on parts, which correspond to the electrode terminal holes, on the shell; electrodes formed by connecting electrode plates (4) and electrode terminals (2) are provided, the electrode terminals are plugged into the electrode terminal holes, and the electrode plates are plugged in the electrode positioning grooves; sealing rings (6) are formed between the electrode terminals and the shell; a light emitting diode (7) and a light sensing triode (8) are arranged in the shell on the two sides of the groove (102) respectively; a printed circuit board (5) is arranged in the shell; and the light emitting diode, the light sensing triode and the electrode terminals are connected to the printed circuit board (5). The sensor is applicable to home appliances such as washing machines and dish-washing machines.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a water turbidity and water conductivity detection sensor installed on household appliances such as washing machines and dishwashers. Background technique [0002] The conductivity of water usually depends on the concentration of ions contained in the water. The concentration of ions in natural water is generally proportional to the concentration of metal ions (such as sodium, calcium, magnesium, etc.) in water, and the concentration of metal ions (especially calcium, magnesium ions) The role of detergent in washing machines, dishwashers and other equipment has a greater impact. The higher the total amount of calcium and magnesium ion salts, the stronger the effect of precipitating detergent, which will reduce the washing function of detergent. Measure the electrical conductivity of water, and roughly calculate the hardness of the water (calcium, magnesium ion content), and adjust the washing conditions according to the hardnes...
