Self-power-supply gas water heater controller

Abstract

The invention discloses a self-power-supply gas water heater controller which comprises a hydroelectric generation device and an intelligent control board. The hydroelectric generation device is connected with a rechargeable battery. The rechargeable battery is connected with the intelligent control board. The intelligent control board comprises a microcontroller, a wireless communication module, a temperature sensor, a key display module and a prompter. By the adoption of the self-power-supply gas water heater controller, water flow energy is converted into electric energy through the hydroelectric generation device, the electric energy is stored in the rechargeable battery, and the self-power-supply and energy storage technical effects are achieved; water flow speed information is obtained through electric signals received by the microcontroller, water temperature information is obtained through the temperature sensor, wireless control is achieved through connection of a corresponding remote control unit and the wireless communication module, and therefore people uses a gas water heater more practically, conveniently, safely and reliably.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of gas water heater controllers, in particular to a self-powered gas water heater controller. Background technique [0002] Gas water heater, also known as gas water heater, refers to a water heater that uses gas as fuel and transfers high-temperature heat generated by gas combustion to cold water flowing through a heat exchanger to achieve the purpose of preparing hot water. Due to the actual situation and usage habits in our country, gas water heaters are still the first choice of many consumers. The advantages are high thermal efficiency, fast heating speed, stable temperature regulation, continuous use by multiple people, constant water temperature, and low purchase cost. [0003] Gas water heaters need electric energy to be used by the controller. The existing power supply methods generally use external power supply or battery power supply. The battery is a non-renewable energy source, and the battery needs to b...

Problems solved by technology

[0005]However, hydroelectric power generation devices or thermoelectric power generation have not been recognized by the majority of users, and have not even entered the market. For individual families, the cost of installing a self-powered device Both exceed the electricity bill generated by electricity, and it is troublesome, and it is not as direct as using electricity directly; for industrial production, directly adding this device in the production process will increase production costs, and this function cannot convince users to spend more Money to bear this part of the production cost, summed up as the function is too single, not attractive enough

[0006] However, with the progress of society, people are more and more pursuing efficient and convenient life. Generally, household appliances are equipped with corresponding remote controls to facilitate people's use. The existing gas Generally, water heaters must be placed where people can reach them so that people can control them, which has relatively large limitations. If the gas water heater can be equipped with a remote control, it will not only make the installation position of the gas water heater more flexible and reasonable, but also facilitate people to control it. , for this reason, it is necessary to produce a gas water heater controller that can cooperate with the remote control for wireless control and at the same time be self-powered
