Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of water purifier technology, and in particular to a method for cleaning water accumulation in water purifier production pipelines. Background Technology

[0002] Reverse osmosis water purifiers are essential equipment for household and industrial water treatment today. During their production process, the cleanliness of the piping system directly affects the product's performance and lifespan. However, water accumulation often occurs in the piping systems of production lines during long-term operation. This not only reduces production efficiency but can also lead to bacterial growth, affecting the final water quality. Traditional piping cleaning methods mainly rely on periodic shutdowns for manual cleaning or simple water flushing. These methods are often inefficient and fail to thoroughly remove accumulated water and dirt from the pipes. Summary of the Invention

[0003] This application aims to at least partially address one of the aforementioned technical problems in the prior art. To this end, embodiments of this application provide a method for cleaning water accumulation in the pipes of a water purifier, which can prevent water accumulation in the internal pipes of the water purifier from causing microbial growth and improve the production efficiency of the water purifier.

[0004] A method for cleaning accumulated water in the production pipeline of a water purifier includes the following steps:

[0005] The water purifier's purification system is activated by the water purifier's start-up device, which displays the TDS values ​​of the inlet and outlet water pipes.

[0006] Observe the TDS values ​​of the water purifier's inlet and outlet pipes. When the TDS values ​​are stable and unchanged, use a negative pressure suction device to clean the internal pipes of the water purifier under negative pressure through the inlet or outlet pipes.

[0007] When the TDS value monitored by the water purifier's inlet and outlet pipes is 0, the negative pressure cleaning will stop.

[0008] In an optional or preferred embodiment, the water purification system of the water purifier is started in a waterless state by means of a water purifier start-up device.

[0009] In an optional or preferred embodiment, the feature is that: after negative pressure cleaning is completed, the inlet of the water inlet pipe and the outlet of the water outlet pipe are sealed with plugs.

[0010] In an optional or preferred embodiment, after negative pressure cleaning is completed, when the TDS value is 0, the inlet and outlet of the water inlet pipes are sealed with plugs.

[0011] In an optional or preferred embodiment, a TDS monitor is installed on the inlet pipe and a TDS monitor is installed on the outlet pipe. Both the TDS monitors on the inlet pipe and the outlet pipe are connected to the water purifier start-up device. The water purifier start-up device is equipped with a display panel for displaying the TDS monitoring values.

[0012] Based on the above technical solutions, the embodiments of this application have at least the following beneficial effects: The above technical solutions allow direct observation of the TDS values ​​in the inlet and outlet pipes of the water purifier to determine whether the water volume in the pipes meets the discharge requirements. This application utilizes the characteristics of TDS monitoring (displaying a value when there is water and a value of 0 when there is no water) to determine whether the internal pipes of the water purifier have been effectively cleaned. Through negative pressure cleaning, residual water and debris in the internal pipes of the water purifier can be sucked out, achieving deep cleaning of the pipes and ensuring that the water accumulated in the internal pipes is completely cleaned before the water purifier leaves the factory. This prevents the accumulation of water in the internal pipes from causing microbial growth and improves the production efficiency of the water purifier. Detailed Implementation

[0018] Reverse osmosis water purifiers are essential equipment for household and industrial water treatment today. During their production process, the cleanliness of the piping system directly affects the product's performance and lifespan. However, water accumulation often occurs in the piping systems of production lines during long-term operation. This not only reduces production efficiency but can also lead to bacterial growth, affecting the final water quality. Traditional piping cleaning methods mainly rely on periodic shutdowns for manual cleaning or simple water flushing. These methods are often inefficient and fail to thoroughly remove accumulated water and dirt from the pipes.

[0019] This application provides a method for cleaning accumulated water in the production pipeline of a water purifier, including the following steps:

[0020] The water purifier's purification system is activated by the water purifier's start-up device, which displays the TDS values ​​of the inlet and outlet water pipes.

[0021] Observe the TDS values ​​of the water purifier's inlet and outlet pipes. When the TDS values ​​are stable and unchanged, use a negative pressure suction device to clean the internal pipes of the water purifier under negative pressure through the inlet or outlet pipes.

[0022] When the TDS value monitored by the water purifier's inlet and outlet pipes is 0, the negative pressure cleaning will stop.

[0023] By observing the TDS values ​​of the inlet and outlet pipes of the water purifier, one can directly observe whether the water volume in the pipes meets the discharge requirements. This application utilizes the characteristics of TDS monitoring (displaying a value when there is water and a value of 0 when there is no water) to determine whether the internal pipes of the water purifier have been effectively cleaned. Through negative pressure cleaning, residual water and debris in the internal pipes of the water purifier can be sucked out, achieving deep cleaning of the pipes. This ensures that the water purifier is completely cleaned of any water accumulation in the internal pipes before packaging and leaving the factory, preventing the growth of microorganisms caused by water accumulation in the internal pipes and improving the production efficiency of the water purifier.

[0024] In some embodiments, the water purifier system is activated in a waterless state using a water purifier activation device. This achieves the initial effect of draining water accumulated inside the pipes.

[0025] In some embodiments, after negative pressure cleaning is completed, plugs are used to seal the inlet and outlet pipe openings. This prevents foreign objects from entering the pipes and ensures the pipe interior is clean.

[0026] In some embodiments, after negative pressure cleaning is completed, when the TDS reading is 0, the inlet and outlet pipes are sealed with plugs. A TDS reading of 0 indicates that the water inside the pipe has reached the discharge threshold, and sealing the pipes at this time ensures that no residual water remains inside the pipe.

[0027] In some embodiments, a TDS monitor is installed on the inlet pipe and a TDS monitor is installed on the outlet pipe. Both the inlet and outlet TDS monitors are connected to the water purifier's start-up device, which is equipped with a display panel for displaying the TDS monitoring values. Independent monitoring of the TDS values ​​in the inlet and outlet pipes is achieved through the use of the TDS monitors on the inlet and outlet pipes.

[0028] In the description of this specification, the references to terms such as "one embodiment," "some embodiments," "example," "specific example," or "some examples," etc., refer to specific features, structures, materials, or characteristics described in connection with that embodiment or example, which are included in at least one embodiment or example of the embodiments of this application. In this specification, the illustrative expressions of the above terms do not necessarily refer to the same embodiment or example. Furthermore, the specific features, structures, materials, or characteristics described may be combined in any suitable manner in one or more embodiments or examples. Moreover, without contradiction, those skilled in the art can combine and integrate the different embodiments or examples described in this specification, as well as the features of different embodiments or examples.

[0029] The embodiments have been described in detail above, but this application is not limited to the above embodiments. Within the scope of knowledge possessed by those skilled in the art, various changes can be made without departing from the spirit of this application.
