The micro water flow generator is driven by the impeller to generate electricity, as shown in Figure 9As shown, when water flows in a water pipe, the front end of the water flow forms a parabolic shape, as shown by the dotted line. Therefore, the flow velocity of the water flow in the area close to the axis of the water pipe is greater than that in the area where the water pipe is closed. Thus, the axis of the impeller cannot be set on the axis of the water pipe, otherwise the impeller will not rotate normally;

Through the present invention, on the one hand, the water output from the water pipe can be effectively disinfected and sterilized, thus providing protection for people's physical health, and it can be completed only by turning on and off the faucet during use, which is convenient to use and has a simple structure. On the other hand, the energy generated by the water flow can be converted into electrical energy and collected, and is applied to disinfect and sterilize the water pipe, thus saving energy; among them, the water flow sensor and the micro water flow generator are prior arts, and can be directly purchased in the market, and their structures and principles can be queried through the web page, which will not be elaborated here.

[0046] Specifically:

[0047] The comparison control circuit includes a resistor R7, a resistor R8, a resistor R9, a comparator U2 and a comparator U3;

[0048] The non-inverting input terminal of the comparator U2 is connected to the control output terminal of the start control circuit. The output terminal of the comparator U2 serves as the first output terminal of the comparison control circuit and is connected to the first control input terminal of the constant current circuit. The inverting input terminal of the comparator U2 is connected to the output terminal VCC1 of the lithium battery charging and power supply control through the resistor R7. The inverting input terminal of the comparator U2 is connected to the ground after being connected in series with the resistor R9 through the resistor R8. The common connection point between the resistor R8 and the resistor R9 is connected to the inverting input terminal of the comparator U3.

[0050] The non-inverting input terminal of operational amplifier U4 is connected to one end of resistor R10, and the other end of resistor R10 serves as the power input terminal of the constant current circuit. The output terminal of operational amplifier U4 is respectively connected to one end of resistor R13, resistor R14, and resistor R15. The other end of resistor R13 is connected to the collector of triode T2, the other end of resistor R14 is connected to the collector of triode T3, and the other end of resistor R15 is connected to the collector of triode T4. The emitters of triode T2, triode T3, and triode T4 are all connected to the non-inverting input terminal of operational amplifier U6. The common connection point between the non-inverting input terminal of operational amplifier U6 and the emitter of triode T2 serves as the power output terminal of the constant current circuit. The base of triode T2 is the first control input terminal of the constant current circuit, the base of triode T3 is the second control input terminal of the constant current circuit, the base of triode T4 is connected to one end of resistor R16, and the other end of resistor R16 serves as the third control input terminal of the constant current circuit and is connected to the control output terminal of the start control circuit. The inverting input terminal of operational amplifier U6 is connected to the output terminal of operational amplifier U6. The output terminal of operational amplifier U6 is connected to the inverting input terminal of operational amplifier U5 through resistor R11. The non-inverting input terminal of operational amplifier U5 is connected to the output terminal of operational amplifier U4. The inverting input terminal of operational amplifier U5 is connected to the output terminal of operational amplifier U5 through resistor R12 and capacitor C1 in parallel. The output terminal of operational amplifier U5 is connected to the inverting input terminal of operational amplifier U4. Through the above structure, a stable working current can be provided for the ultraviolet LED lamp, and different currents can be output according to the different water flow rates, so as to ensure the sterilization requirements. The constant current mentioned above means achieving constant current under the condition that the output resistance is determined. For example, when only triode T2 is conducting, then under the condition of output resistance R13, its output current remains unchanged. When triode T2 and T3 or triode T2, T3, and T4 are all conducting, its output resistance becomes the resistance obtained by paralleling resistor R15, resistor R14, and resistor R13. Then at this resistance value, the output current increases compared to when only T2 is conducting and remains unchanged.

[0051] In this embodiment, the start control circuit includes resistor R1, resistor R2, resistor R3, resistor R4, resistor R5, resistor R6, triode T1, PMOS transistor Q1, and operational amplifier U1;

[0052] The source of PMOS transistor Q1 is connected to the output terminal VCC1 of the lithium battery power supply control circuit as the input terminal of the startup control circuit. The drain of PMOS transistor Q1 is connected to the power input terminal of the constant current circuit as the power output terminal Vout of the startup control circuit. The source of PMOS transistor Q1 is connected to the gate of PMOS transistor Q1 through resistor R2. The gate of PMOS transistor Q1 is connected to the collector of transistor T1 through resistor R3. The emitter of transistor T1 is grounded. The base of transistor T1 is connected to the output terminal of operational amplifier U1 through resistor R4. The output terminal of operational amplifier U1 is grounded through the series connection of resistor R5 and resistor R6. The inverting terminal of operational amplifier U1 is connected to the common connection point between resistor R5 and resistor R6. The non-inverting terminal of operational amplifier U1 is connected to the output terminal of the water flow sensor. The output terminal of operational amplifier U1 is used as the control output terminal Vo of the startup control circuit. Among them, operational amplifier U1, resistor R5, and resistor R6 form a non-inverting amplifier circuit for amplifying the sampled voltage signal output by the water flow sensor. When the faucet is not opened, there is no water flow output, and operational amplifier U1 also has no output. Transistor T1 is cut off, so that the gate-source voltage of the PMOS transistor is equal and it is cut off. When operational amplifier U1 has an output, it indicates that the faucet is opened and the water is flowing. Transistor T1 is turned on, and PMOS transistor Q1 is turned on, thereby providing direct current for the constant current circuit, and then the ultraviolet LED germicidal lamp works. Therefore, through the above structure, only by opening or closing the faucet can the startup and shutdown of the sterilization and disinfection device be completed, which is convenient to use.

As the voltage of capacitor C2 rises and stabilizes, capacitor C3 also enters a stable state and can reach the conduction voltage condition of triode T5. The triode conducts, so that NMOS transistor Q2 conducts, and then charges the lithium battery. A comparison switch circuit is also provided in the lithium battery power supply control circuit, that is, composed of triode T10, resistor R25, resistor R26, resistor R27, and diode D5. Among them, the emitter electrode of triode T10 is connected to the negative electrode of diode D2. The collector electrode of triode T10 is connected to the lithium battery.

The collector of the triode T8 is connected to the output terminal of the DC power supply VCC. The emitter of the triode T8 is connected to the positive pole of the diode D6. The negative pole of the diode D6 is connected to the negative pole of the diode D4. The emitter of the triode T8 is connected to the collector of the triode T11 through the resistor R20. The emitter of the triode T8 is connected to the base of the triode T11 through the resistor R28. The emitter of the triode T11 is connected to the negative pole of the thyristor SCR1. Among them, the triodes T6 and T7 are P-type triodes. Although the resistance values of the adjustable resistors RT1 and RT2 are adjustable, the resistance value of the resistor RT1 always remains less than the resistance value of the resistor RT7. A comparison circuit is formed by the triodes T6 and T7, that is: when RT2 divides the voltage of the direct current VCC, its voltage value VT2 is less than the voltage value VT1 after RT1 divides the voltage of the direct current VCC, thereby realizing the control of the lithium battery. That is to say: when the voltage of the lithium battery reaches VBAT2, VBAT2 - VT2 is greater than the conduction voltage of the triode T7. At this time, the triode T7 conducts, the NMOS transistor Q4 conducts, and the PMOS transistor does not conduct at this time. When the lithium battery voltage reaches VBAT1, VBAT1 - VT1 is greater than the conduction voltage of the triode T6, and the triode T6 conducts. At this time, the thyristor SCR1 is triggered through the resistor R20 and remains conducting. At this time, the source voltage of the PMOS transistor Q3 is greater than the gate voltage and conducts, and the lithium battery supplies power externally. As mentioned above: VBAT1 is the lithium battery discharge threshold circuit, and VBAT2 is the stop discharge voltage of the lithium battery. That is to say: when the lithium battery voltage is lower than VBAT2, it needs to be charged until it reaches VBAT1 before starting to discharge, thereby protecting the lithium battery.When the lithium battery discharges, the triode T9 conducts and T8 cuts off, causing the DC power supply VCC to stop supplying power. When the lithium battery voltage stops supplying power, the NMOS transistor Q4 cuts off, causing the PMOS transistor Q3 to cut off, the triode T9 to cut off, and the triode T8 to conduct and discharge. At this time, T11 conducts with the conduction of the triode T8, applying a voltage to the negative electrode of the thyristor SCR1. At this time, the thyristor SCR1 is cut off due to the presence of a reverse voltage, and the lithium battery completely stops discharging. There is also an indicator light LED1 connected to the base of the triode T9, which indicates when the lithium battery is supplying power. If the user finds that the light is always off, it indicates that there is a fault in the lithium battery power supply circuit and needs to be repaired.

[0058] In this embodiment, the DC power supply VCC includes a rectifier circuit and a voltage regulator circuit;

[0059] The input end of the rectifier circuit is connected to the mains power, the output end of the rectifier circuit is connected to the input end of the voltage regulator circuit, and the output end of the voltage regulator circuit outputs the DC power supply VCC. Among them, the rectifier circuit adopts a full-bridge rectifier circuit composed of diodes, and the voltage regulator circuit is composed of an LM7812 voltage regulator circuit and an LM7805 voltage regulator circuit. The LM7812 outputs 12V DC power, and the LM7805 converts the 12V DC power into 5V output, that is, VCC.

[0060] In this embodiment, a stepped through hole 8 is provided on the side wall of the water pipe section 1, a fixing plate 4 is fixedly provided in the stepped through hole 8, a transparent cover 6 is fixedly provided on the lower surface of the fixing plate 4, and an installation cavity is hermetically formed between the transparent cover 6 and the fixing plate. The ultraviolet LED germicidal lamp 5 is arranged in the installation cavity. Among them, an installation box 3 is arranged on the upper surface of the fixing plate. The lithium battery, the charging circuit, the lithium battery power supply control circuit, the start control circuit, and the LED drive circuit are all arranged in the installation box 3; of course, the fixing plate and the stepped through hole also need to be sealed, and the ultraviolet LED germicidal lamp extends into the water pipe. The above water pipe section can be one end of the user's water pipe outlet or a separately manufactured water pipe section and then connected. The lower surface of the fixing plate refers to the side facing the inside of the water pipe, and the other side is the upper surface. The transparent cover is made of a conventional material that does not reflect or absorb ultraviolet light.

[0061] The working principle is further described as follows:

[0062] When the faucet is closed, the water flow has no flow, the water flow sensor has no output, and the whole device does not work. When the faucet is opened and the water flow is flowing, the water flow sensor has an output. At this time, the triode T1 conducts, causing the constant current circuit to be powered on and output DC power. Since the operational amplifier U1 has an output at this time, the triode T4 also enters the conducting state, and the ultraviolet LED germicidal lamp works for sterilization.

[0063] If the faucet remains open and the water flow rate increases at this time, then the power of the ultraviolet LED germicidal lamp needs to be increased. At this time, the comparator U3 outputs a high level, the triode T3 conducts, and the output resistance of the constant current circuit is the parallel connection of resistor R14 and resistor R15, which is less than the original output resistance R15. The output current of the constant current circuit increases, causing the power of the ultraviolet LED germicidal lamp to increase and ensuring the sterilization effect. When the faucet is further increased to the maximum state, then the comparator U2 also outputs a high level. At this time, the triodes T2, T3, and T4 conduct simultaneously, further increasing the power of the ultraviolet LED germicidal lamp to ensure the sterilization effect. Therefore, through the present invention, not only can sterilization be achieved, but also the sterilization power can be adjusted according to the water flow rate, so as to avoid incomplete sterilization or waste of electric energy due to over-sterilization while meeting the sterilization requirements.

[0064] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention and are not intended to limit them. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the preferred embodiments, those of ordinary skill in the art should understand that the technical solutions of the present invention can be modified or equivalently replaced without departing from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the present invention, and they should all be covered by the scope of the claims of the present invention.
