[0037] See also Figure 1-Figure 3 In one embodiment of the present application, a water purifier 200 is provided, including a waterway plate assembly 100, a first filter element 210 and a second filter element 230. The first filter element 210 and the second filter element 230 are both assembled on the waterway plate assembly 100. The waterway plate assembly 100 guides raw water to pass through the first filter element 210 and the second filter element 230 for multiple filtrations to form purified water for use by users.

[0038] The waterway plate assembly 100 includes a waterway plate 10 and an inner tube 30. The waterway plate 10 includes a first filter element mounting portion 12, a second filter element mounting portion 16 and an outer tube 14. The first filter element mounting portion 12 is used to assemble the first filter element 210, the second filter element mounting portion 16 is used to assemble the second filter element 230, and the outer tube 14 is connected between the first filter element mounting portion and the second filter element mounting portion 16. Among them, the first filter element mounting portion 12 has a raw water channel 121, a primary filter outlet channel 123 and a tertiary filter inlet channel 125, and the second filter element mounting portion 16 has a secondary filter inlet channel 161 and a secondary filter outlet channel 163. In addition, the inner tube 30 is sleeved in the outer tube 14, and a first channel 21 is defined between the inner tube 30 and the outer tube 14. A second channel 32 is formed in the inner tube 30. One of the first channel 21 and the second channel 32 is connected between the primary filtration water outlet channel 123 and the secondary filtration water inlet channel 161, and the other of the first channel 21 and the second channel 32 is connected between the secondary filtration water outlet channel 163 and the tertiary filtration water inlet channel 125.

[0039] When the water purifier 200 is used, the first filter element 210 is installed on the first filter element installation part 12, and the second filter element 230 is installed on the second filter element installation part 16. After the raw water enters the first filter element 210 through the raw water channel 121 and completes the primary filtration, it flows from the primary filtration outlet channel 123 through one of the first channel 21 and the second channel 32 to enter the secondary filtration inlet channel 161, and then flows through the second filter element 230 to complete the secondary filtration and flows from the secondary filtration outlet to the other of the first channel 21 and the second channel 32, and finally flows to the tertiary filtration inlet channel 125 and completes the tertiary filtration in the first filter element 210, and the purification effect is better. In addition, the two pipelines (inner pipe 30 and outer pipe 14) are sleeved together in the entire waterway plate assembly 100 to reduce the overall volume and manufacturing cost.

[0040] Furthermore, the first filter element mounting portion 12 has a clean water channel 127, which is located downstream of the three-stage filtration water inlet channel 125 along the water outlet direction. The liquid flowing into the first filter element 210 from the three-stage filtration water inlet channel 125 flows out from the clean water channel 127 after three-stage filtration and is provided to users.

[0041] Specifically, the second filter element mounting portion 16 further has a wastewater channel 165 , and a fourth channel 25 relatively independent of the first channel 21 and the second channel 32 is formed between the inner tube 30 and the outer tube 14 , and the fourth channel 25 is connected to the wastewater channel 165 . Specifically in this embodiment, the second filter element 230 has a reverse osmosis membrane filter element 231, and the wastewater channel 165 is connected to the wastewater side of the reverse osmosis membrane filter element 231. A part of the liquid flowing from the secondary filtration inlet channel 161 to the water inlet side of the reverse osmosis membrane filter element 231 passes through the reverse osmosis membrane and flows from the water outlet side to the secondary filtration outlet channel 163, and the other part flows along the axial direction of the reverse osmosis membrane filter element 231 to bring out the larger impurities such as particles and colloidal particles attached to the water and the sediments covering the membrane surface or the membrane pores out of the membrane surface, thereby extending the service life of the membrane and generating wastewater flowing out of the wastewater channel 165. Finally, the wastewater is discharged from the fourth channel 25 between the inner tube 30 and the outer tube 14. In this way, there is no need to set up an additional wastewater pipeline, and the inner tube 30 and the outer tube 14 are used to discharge the wastewater, thereby simplifying the structure of the waterway plate assembly 100 and facilitating the production of the waterway plate assembly 100.

[0042] Optionally, the waterway plate assembly 100 further includes a wastewater connector 19 connected to the outer tube 14, and the wastewater channel 165 inside the wastewater connector 19 is connected to the fourth channel 25, and the wastewater flowing from the wastewater channel 165 to the fourth channel 25 between the inner tube 30 and the outer tube 14 is finally discharged through the wastewater channel 165 inside the wastewater connector 19, and the wastewater connector 19 is convenient for connecting to an external pipeline to facilitate wastewater discharge. Optionally, the wastewater connector 19 and the second filter element mounting portion 16 are arranged on both sides of the outer tube 14 in a radial direction of the outer tube 14, and the wastewater connector 19 and the wastewater channel 165 are connected by making the fourth channel 25 between the inner tube 30 and the outer tube 14 communicate.

[0043] In some embodiments, the first filter element 210 is a double filter element having a primary filter element 211 and a tertiary filter element 213, and the second filter element 230 has a reverse osmosis membrane filter element 231. The raw water channel 121 and the primary filter outlet channel 123 are respectively connected to the water inlet side and the water outlet side of the primary filter element 211, the secondary filter inlet channel 161, the secondary filter outlet channel 163 and the wastewater channel 165 are respectively connected to the water inlet side, the water outlet side and the wastewater side of the reverse osmosis membrane filter element, and the tertiary filter inlet channel 125 and the clean water channel 127 are respectively connected to the water inlet side and the water outlet side of the tertiary filter element 213.

[0044] The liquid flowing in from the raw water channel 121 can flow from the water inlet side of the primary filter element 211 to the water outlet side and finally flow out from the primary filter outlet channel 123, completing the primary filtration. Then, the liquid that has completed the primary filtration passes through the first channel 21 and flows from the secondary filter water inlet channel 161 to the water inlet side of the reverse osmosis membrane, and then passes through the reverse osmosis membrane to flow to the secondary filter outlet channel 163, completing the secondary filtration. Finally, the liquid that has completed the secondary filtration passes through the second channel 32 in the inner tube 30 and returns to the first filter element mounting portion 12, and flows to the water inlet side of the tertiary filter element 213 through the tertiary filter water inlet channel 125, and flows from the water outlet side of the tertiary filter element 213 to the clean water channel 127 after passing through the tertiary filter element 213, completing the tertiary filtration.

[0045] In some embodiments, in the first filter element mounting portion 12, the tertiary filtration water inlet channel 125, the primary filtration water outlet channel 123 and the raw water channel 121 are all arranged in an annular shape from the inside to the outside outside the clean water channel 127. When the first filter element 210 is assembled on the first filter element mounting portion 12, the water inlet side of the primary filter element 211 in the first filter element 210 is connected to the raw water channel 121, the water outlet side of the primary filter element 211 is connected to the primary filtration water outlet channel 123, the water inlet side of the tertiary filter element 213 is connected to the tertiary filtration water inlet channel 125, and the water outlet side of the tertiary filter element 213 is connected to the clean water channel 127. In this way, when the first filter element 210 is installed at the first filter element mounting portion 12, liquid can be introduced into and led out of the first filter element 210, and the waterway is only composed of several annular channels arranged mutually, and the waterway plate 10 has a simple structure and is easy to manufacture. Optionally, the clean water channel 127 located at the center is cylindrical, and the tertiary filtration water inlet channel 125, the primary filtration water outlet channel 123 and the raw water channel 121 are all annular.

[0046] Furthermore, the water circuit plate 10 also includes a raw water connector 17 and a clean water connector 18, both of which are arranged on the first filter element mounting portion 12, and the raw water channel 121 in the raw water connector 17 is connected to the raw water channel 121, and the clean water connector is connected to the clean water channel 127, so that raw water can be provided to the water circuit plate 10 after connecting the external pipeline through the raw water connector 17, and the generated clean water can be led to the outside for user use after connecting the external pipeline through the clean water connector 18.

[0047] Specifically, the waterway plate 10 further includes a support portion 40, the outer tube 14 is connected between the water purification joint 18 and the second filter element mounting portion 16, the support portion 40 is connected to the water purification joint 18 and is located inside the outer tube 14, and the inner tube 30 is sealedly sleeved on the support portion 40, so that the inner tube 30 is fixed in the outer tube 14 at intervals through the support portion 40, providing support for the inner tube 30. In addition, a flow channel connecting the second channel 32 and the tertiary filtration water inlet channel 125 is formed in the support portion 40, so that after the inner tube 30 is sleeved on the support portion 40, the second channel 32 can still be connected to the tertiary filtration water inlet channel 125 through the flow channel in the support portion 40.

[0048] See also Figure 1-Figure 3 In some embodiments, the waterway plate assembly 100 further includes a first seal 51 and a second seal 53 both of which are sealed and sleeved between the inner tube 30 and the outer tube 14 (see Figure 3 ), the second sealing member 53 and the first sealing member 51 are spaced apart from each other, and a third channel 23 is defined between the two to connect the secondary filtered water outlet channel 163 and the second channel 32. Equivalently, not only the first channel 21 is formed between the inner tube 30 and the outer tube 14, but also a third channel 23 that is independent of the first channel 21 and connected to the second channel 32 is formed to guide the liquid flowing out of the secondary filtered outlet through the third channel 23 into the second channel 32 of the inner tube 30. Specifically, a through hole connected to the third channel 23 is provided on the inner tube 30 to connect the third channel 23 with the second channel 32, allowing the liquid to enter the second channel 32 of the inner tube 30 from the third channel 23.

[0049] Furthermore, the secondary filter water inlet channel 161 and the secondary filter water outlet channel 163 are arranged along the direction from the first filter element mounting portion 12 to the second filter element mounting portion 16, and along the axial direction of the outer tube 14. The first sealing member 51 is located between the secondary filter water inlet channel 161 and the secondary filter water outlet channel 163, and the second sealing member 53 is located on the side of the secondary filter water outlet channel 163 away from the first filter element mounting portion 12, so that the secondary filter water outlet channel 163 is located between the first sealing member 51 and the second sealing member 53, so that the secondary filter water outlet channel 163 is connected to the third channel 23 between the first sealing member 51 and the second sealing member 53, and then the secondary filter water outlet channel 163 is connected to the second channel 32 in the inner tube 30 through the third channel 23.

[0050] Specifically, a plurality of mounting grooves are provided on the outer circumferential surface of the inner tube 30 , and the first seal 51 and the second seal 53 are respectively sleeved in the plurality of mounting grooves. Finally, when the inner tube 30 is sleeved into the outer tube 14 , the first seal 51 and the second seal 53 are both sealed against the inner wall of the outer tube 14 .

[0051] In some embodiments, the waterway plate assembly 100 further includes a plug 70, which includes a first plugging section 72 and a second plugging section 74 connected to each other, the first plugging section 72 and the inner tube 30 are sealed and sleeved, and the second plugging section 74 and the outer tube 14 are sealed and sleeved, so that the channel plug 70 seals the outer tube 14 and the end of the inner tube 30 away from the first filter element mounting portion 12, so that the entire waterway plate assembly 100 only needs one plug 70, with fewer water leakage points and a lower risk of water leakage. Specifically, the axial end of one end of the outer tube 14 is connected to the clean water connector 18, the outer peripheral surface of the other end of the outer tube 14 is connected to the mounting portion of the second seal 53, and the plug 70 is sleeved on the end of the outer tube 14 and the second seal 53 where it is installed.

[0052] Furthermore, a fourth channel 25 located between the inner tube 30 and the outer tube 14 is defined between the second sealing member 53 and the second blocking section 74, so as to connect the wastewater channel 165 on the second filter element mounting portion through the fourth channel 25 to lead out the wastewater in the wastewater channel 165. Specifically, a through hole connecting the fourth channel 25 with the wastewater channel 165 in the wastewater connector 19 is provided on the outer tube 14, so that the wastewater in the fourth channel 25 eventually flows into the wastewater connector 19 and is discharged from the external pipeline connected to the wastewater connector 19. In this way, in the direction in which the first filter element mounting portion 12 points to the installation of the second filter element 230, a mutually independent first channel 21, a third channel 23 and a fourth channel 25 are formed between the inner tube 30 and the outer tube 14 along the axial direction of the outer tube 14. The first channel 21 is separated from the third channel 23 by a first seal 51 , the third channel 23 is separated from the fourth channel 25 by a second seal 53 , and the axial ends of the outer tube 14 are blocked by a clean water connector 18 and a plug 70 , respectively.

[0053] In some embodiments, in the second filter element mounting portion 16, the wastewater channel 165 and the secondary filtration water inlet channel 161 are connected and are both annular and have an inner outer sleeve arranged outside the secondary filtration water outlet channel 163. When the second filter element 230 is installed on the second filter element mounting portion 16, the liquid entering the secondary filtration water inlet channel 161 enters the water inlet side of the reverse osmosis membrane filter element 231 in the second filter element 230, and then a part of the liquid passes through the reverse osmosis membrane and flows to the secondary filtration water outlet channel 163, and the other part of the liquid flushes the surface of the reverse osmosis membrane to form wastewater and flows to the wastewater channel 165. In this way, in the second filter element mounting portion 16, only the channels that are arranged mutually are needed to be formed to form multiple different water flow channels, and the overall structure is relatively simple and easy to manufacture. Optionally, the secondary filtration water outlet channel 163 located at the center is cylindrical, and the wastewater channel 165 and the secondary filtration water inlet channel 161 are both annular.

[0054] In one embodiment of the present application, a waterway plate assembly 100 is provided, which includes a waterway plate 10 and an inner tube 30. The waterway plate 10 includes a first filter element mounting portion 12, a second filter element mounting portion 16 and an outer tube 14. The first filter element mounting portion 12 is used to assemble the first filter element 210, the second filter element mounting portion 16 is used to assemble the second filter element 230, and the outer tube 14 is connected between the first filter element mounting portion and the second filter element mounting portion 16. The first filter element mounting portion 12 has a raw water channel 121, a primary filter outlet channel 123, a tertiary filter inlet channel 125 and a clean water channel 127, and the second filter element mounting portion 16 has a secondary filter inlet channel 161 and a secondary filter outlet channel 163. In addition, the inner tube 30 is sleeved in the outer tube 14, and a first channel 21 connecting the primary filter water outlet channel 123 and the secondary filter water inlet channel 161 is defined between the inner tube 30 and the outer tube 14. A second channel 32 connecting the secondary filter water outlet channel 163 and the tertiary filter water inlet channel 125 is formed in the inner tube 30.

[0055] When using the water purifier 200, the first filter element 210 is installed on the first filter element mounting portion 12, and the second filter element 230 is installed on the second filter element mounting portion 16. After the raw water enters the first filter element 210 through the raw water channel 121 and completes the primary filtration, it flows from the primary filtration outlet channel 123 through the first channel 21 between the inner tube 30 and the outer tube 14 to enter the secondary filtration inlet channel 161, and then flows through the second filter element 230 to complete the secondary filtration and flows from the secondary filtration outlet to the second channel 32 in the inner tube 30, and finally flows to the tertiary filtration inlet channel 125 and completes the tertiary filtration in the first filter element 210 and flows out from the clean water channel 127, completing three filtrations, and the purification effect is better. In addition, the two pipelines (inner tube 30 and outer tube 14) are set together in the entire waterway plate assembly 100 to reduce the overall volume and manufacturing cost.
