Water inlet and outlet connector and water heater

Abstract

The invention discloses a water inlet and outlet connector. The water inlet and outlet connector comprises a connector main body and a temperature probe fixing base, wherein the connector main body is of a hollow structure, and the temperature probe fixing base and the connector main body are integrally formed; the connector main body is provided with a first pipe section, a second pipe section and a branch pipe section which communicate with one another; the pipe end of the first pipe section is provided with a first connector body; a first connecting hole communicating with the interior of the connector main body is formed in the first connector body; the pipe end of the second pipe section is provided with a second connector body; a second connecting hole communicating with the interior of the connector main body is formed in the second connector body; the pipe end of the branch pipe section is provided with a third connector body; a third connecting hole communicating with the interior of the connector main body is formed in the third connector body; and a temperature probe mounting hole communicating with the interior of the connector main body is formed in the temperature probe fixing base. The invention further provides a water heater. According to the water inlet and outlet connector and the water heater, the water leakage hidden danger of the water heater can be reduced, the reliability of the water heater can be improved, and the level of the forming difficulty of a water storage container of the water heater can be lowered.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of pipeline joints, in particular to a water inlet and outlet joint and a water heater. Background technique [0002] In order to have better constant temperature performance in existing gas water heaters, a water storage container is usually arranged inside the gas water heater to alleviate the water temperature fluctuation of the gas water heater when the external water pressure fluctuates. See figure 1 , the internal structure of an existing gas water heater with a water storage container is generally: the gas water heater has a heat exchanger 100, a heat exchanger outlet pipe 101, a temperature probe fixing seat 102, and a water storage container 103; wherein, the water storage container 103 The bottom is welded with a water inlet 104 and a water outlet 105, and the inside of the water storage container 103 is provided with a straight pipe 106; the top of the straight pipe 106 is close to the top of the...

Problems solved by technology

[0003] However, the water storage container inside the existing gas water heater needs to be provided with at least two water nozzles. In this way, in the installation process of the complete machine, since the water storage container is provided with more water nozzles and is not easy to weld, the water storage capacity will increase. The hidden danger of water leakage and the difficulty of forming the container

Moreover, the existing gas water heater is fixed by welding the temperature probe fixing seat and the heat exchanger outlet pipe, which is relatively prone to false welding during the welding process, which will lead to hidden dangers of water leakage.

From the above analysis, it can be seen that the existing gas water heaters have a large hidden danger of water leakage, which affects the reliability of the gas water heaters, and the forming of the water storage containers of the existing gas water heaters is relatively difficult
