[0074] Figure 1 is a structural schematic diagram of a flow path control component provided in an embodiment of the present application, Figure 2 This is another structural schematic diagram of the flow path control component provided in an embodiment of the present application.
[0075] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, in response to the technical problems existing in the related art, an embodiment of the present application provides a flow path control component 10, including: a first flow path pipeline 110, a second flow path pipeline 120, a connecting passage pipeline 130 and an adjustment mechanism 140.
[0076] Specifically, the first flow path pipeline 110 has a first inlet 111 and a first outlet 112. It can be understood that the first flow path pipeline 110 can be a water pipe, the first inlet 111 is arranged at one end of the water pipe, and the first outlet 112 is arranged at the other end of the water pipe. In other words, the first inlet 111 and the first outlet 112 are connected through the first flow path pipeline 110. When used specifically, the first inlet 111 can be connected to a water source. It should be noted here that the water source can be a tap water pipe, or in some examples, the water source can also be a water supply source that needs to be treated, such as a water tank. That is, the water provided by the water source enters the first flow path pipeline 110 from the first inlet 111 and is discharged through the first outlet 112.
[0077] In the embodiment of the present application, the first outlet 112 can be connected to the main body of the water treatment device. In some optional examples of the embodiment of the present application, the water treatment device can be a water softener, a water dispenser, a water heater, or a beverage making machine. As a specific example, in the embodiment of the present application, the water treatment device is a water softener as a specific example.
[0078] It is understood that in the embodiment of the present application, the first flow path pipe 110 may be a plastic pipe; in some examples, the first flow path pipe 110 may also be a metal pipe. Figure 1 As shown, the first flow path pipeline 110 can be Figure 1 It can be understood that in the embodiment of the present application, the first flow path pipeline 110 can also be set as a straight pipe.
[0079] By setting the first flow path pipe 110, the water supply of the water source, such as tap water, can enter the water softener through the first flow path pipe 110 for softening. It can be understood that in the embodiment of the present application, the water softener can use ion exchange resin to soften water, such as replacing calcium and magnesium ions in water with sodium ions. As a specific example, the water softened by the water softener can be soft water with a hardness value of 0 (i.e., treated water after being treated by a water treatment device, and soft water is used as a specific example in the subsequent examples of the embodiment of the present application).
[0080] Continue to refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, in the embodiment of the present application, the second flow path pipeline 120 has a second inlet 121 and a second outlet 122; the second inlet 121 is suitable for being connected to the equipment body, and the second outlet 122 is suitable for being connected to the water-using equipment.
[0081] Specifically, in the embodiment of the present application, the second flow path pipeline 120 can be arranged side by side with the first flow path pipeline 110, or, it can also be understood that the second flow path pipeline 120 and the first flow path pipeline 110 are arranged side by side. It can be understood that, in the embodiment of the present application, the second flow path pipeline 120 can be made of the same material as the first flow path pipeline 110. In addition, the second flow path pipeline 120 can also be set as a bend or a straight pipe. Among them, the second inlet 121 of the second flow path pipeline 120 can be specifically connected to the water outlet of the water softener, and the second water outlet of the second flow path pipeline 120 can be specifically connected to a water-using device (such as a water faucet, a shower, a bathtub or a flush toilet).
[0082] It is understood that in the embodiment of the present application, the first flow path pipeline 110 and the second flow path pipeline 120 can be two separate separate pipelines. In some optional examples of the embodiment of the present application, the first flow path pipeline 110 and the second flow path pipeline 120 can also be two flow channels formed on an integral structural member.
[0083] It can also be understood that when the flow control component 10 provided in the embodiment of the present application is used, the water provided by the water supply source enters the flow control component 10 provided in the embodiment of the present application from the first inlet 111, and then enters the water softener through the first outlet 112 for treatment. The treated soft water with a hardness of 0 is transported to the water-using equipment from the second inlet 121 and the second outlet 122, thereby forming a first complete water flow path, which is convenient for softening the water provided by the water source.
[0084] It is also understandable that different user groups have different water use habits. Water with a hardness of 0 after being treated by a water softener is difficult to meet the water use habits of all users. Therefore, the water hardness needs to be adjusted. For example, some users have a water hardness requirement of 1, others have a water hardness requirement of 3, or other users have other different water hardness requirements. Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, in the embodiment of the present application, the communicating passage pipe 130 connects the first flow path pipe 110 and the second flow path pipe 120 .
[0085] Specifically, in the embodiment of the present application, one end of the communication passage pipe 130 is connected to the first flow passage pipe 110, and the other end of the communication passage pipe 130 is connected to the second flow passage pipe 120. As a specific example, refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the communication passage pipe 130 may be connected to the middle of the first flow path pipe 110 and the second flow path pipe 120 .
[0086] In an optional example of the embodiment of the present application, refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the first flow path pipe 110 and the second flow path pipe 120 can be set to be bent, that is, the first flow path pipe 110 and the second flow path pipe 120 are bent pipes, and the communication passage pipe 130 can be connected to the bending of the first flow path pipe 110 and the second flow path pipe 120. In this way, the entire structure of the flow path control component 10 can be made more compact, which is conducive to the miniaturization of the flow path control component 10.
[0087] It is understandable that in the embodiment of the present application, the communication passage pipe 130 can also be used as a separate flow passage pipe to be connected to the first flow passage pipe 110 and the second flow passage pipe 120 respectively. For example, in some examples, a three-way adapter can be provided on both the first flow passage pipe 110 and the second flow passage pipe 120, and the two ends of the communication passage are connected to the first flow passage pipe 110 and the second flow passage pipe 120 through the three-way adapter. In some optional examples, the communication passage pipe 130 can also be a passage connecting the first flow passage pipe 110 and the second flow passage pipe 120 formed by processing on the integral structural member described in the aforementioned embodiments of the present application.
[0088] In this way, when the flow control component 10 provided in the embodiment of the present application is used, it has a second complete water flow path that enters from the first inlet 111, passes through the connecting passage pipe 130, enters the second flow path pipe 120, and is discharged from the second outlet 122.
[0089] Figure 3 It is a schematic diagram of the topological structure of the flow path control component provided in an embodiment of the present application.
[0090] When using it specifically, refer to Figure 3 As shown, the flow control assembly 10 provided in the embodiment of the present application can be connected to a water treatment device, for example, a water softener. A portion of the raw water provided by the water source enters the water treatment device from the first outlet 112 of the first flow path pipe 110 for treatment, and is softened to obtain soft water with a hardness of 0. The other portion flows from the connecting passage water pipe to the second flow path pipe 120 in the state of raw water, and is mixed with the soft water flowing in from the second inlet 121 of the second flow path pipe 120, thereby adjusting the hardness value of the water. Of course, it is understandable that when the water treatment device is a water heater, the temperature of the hot water can be adjusted, and when the water treatment device is a beverage maker, the taste of the beverage can be adjusted.
[0091] In the present application, refer to Figure 1-Figure 3As shown, a regulating mechanism 140 can be specifically provided on the communication passage pipe 130. Specifically, the regulating mechanism 140 can be a regulating valve, such as a hand valve, a ball valve, an electric valve or a pneumatic valve. The regulating mechanism 140 is used to control the opening of the communication passage pipe 130. That is, in the embodiment of the present application, the opening of the communication passage pipe 130 is adjusted by the regulating mechanism 140, so that the amount of raw water flowing from the communication passage pipe 130 can be adjusted, so that water with different hardness values can be obtained after the raw water is mixed with soft water, so as to meet the water needs of different users.
[0092] For example, taking the hardness value adjustment as a specific example, when installing a water softener, the installation engineer can determine the hardness value of the raw water supplied by the local water plant based on the local water supply index provided by the local water plant, such as the hardness index in the water supply index; then, determine the mixing ratio of the raw water and the soft water with a hardness value of 0 based on the raw water hardness value and the user's water demand hardness value, and then adjust the adjustment mechanism 140 to the corresponding opening, so that the outlet water hardness value can be quickly adjusted to the user's required hardness value.
[0093] Of course, it is understandable that when users need to change / alter the water hardness value, they can also check the water supply indicators provided by the local water plant and then adjust it according to their actual needs.
[0094] According to the flow path control component 10 of the embodiment of the present application, the first flow path pipeline 110 and the second flow path pipeline 120 are connected through the connecting path pipeline 130, and an adjusting mechanism 140 is arranged on the connecting path pipeline 130; the adjusting mechanism 140 is used to adjust the opening of the connecting path pipeline 130; in this way, the water entering from the first inlet 111 of the first flow path pipeline 110 can be divided at the connection point between the connecting path pipeline 130 and the first flow path pipeline 110, one of which can enter the equipment body of the water treatment equipment from the first outlet 112 of the first flow path pipeline 110 for treatment, and the other can directly enter the second flow path pipeline 120 through the connecting path pipeline 130 and mix with the water that has been processed by the equipment body and enters from the second inlet 121, so that the mixing ratio of the two water paths can be conveniently adjusted by adjusting the opening of the connecting path pipeline 130 by the adjusting mechanism 140, so as to conveniently adjust the water quality to the required water quality, which can improve the adjustment efficiency.
[0095] Figure 4 It is a schematic diagram of the exploded structure of the flow path control component provided in an embodiment of the present application.

[0127] Figure 8 It is a schematic diagram of the exploded structure of the regulating mechanism in the flow control assembly provided in the embodiment of the present application.
[0128] Reference Figure 8 As shown, in an optional example of the embodiment of the present application, the adjustment mechanism 140 includes: a first adjustment piece 145 and a second adjustment piece 146 .
[0129] Specifically, in the embodiment of the present application, the first adjustment sheet 145 can be arranged in the adjustment passage 1411. It is understood that in the embodiment of the present application, the second adjustment sheet 146 can also be arranged in the adjustment passage 1411. In some optional examples, both the first adjustment sheet 145 and the second adjustment sheet 146 can be ceramic sheets. In other optional examples of the embodiment of the present application, one of the first adjustment sheet 145 and the second adjustment sheet 146 can be a ceramic sheet, and the other can be a rubber sealing sheet.
[0130] It can also be understood that in the embodiment of the present application, in order to ensure that the water flow (specifically, it can refer to the raw water described in detail in the above embodiments of the present application) passes normally between the first regulating piece 145 and the second regulating piece 146. Figure 8 As shown, in the embodiment of the present application, one of the first adjustment sheet 145 and the second adjustment sheet 146 is provided with a water hole 147. As a specific example of the embodiment of the present application, refer to Figure 8 As shown, the water hole 147 can be specifically provided on the first adjustment sheet 145. It can be understood that in some other optional examples of the embodiment of the present application, the water hole 147 can also be provided on the second adjustment sheet 146.
[0131] In addition, in the embodiment of the present application, one of the first adjustment sheet 145 and the second adjustment sheet 146 is provided with a water hole 147, and the other of the first adjustment sheet 145 and the second adjustment sheet 146 covers, blocks or obstructs the water hole 147, thereby sealing the water hole 147.
[0132] It can also be understood that, in the embodiment of the present application, the first adjustment piece 145 and the second adjustment piece 146 can rotate relative to each other. Specifically, in the embodiment of the present application, the mutual rotation between the first adjustment piece 145 and the second adjustment piece 146 can specifically refer to the rotation around the axis of the adjustment passage 1411. As a specific example of the embodiment of the present application, the first adjustment piece 145 can be fixedly arranged in the adjustment passage 1411, and the second adjustment piece 146 can rotate relative to the first adjustment piece 145, so as to adjust the size of the opening area of the water hole 147 (that is, the area of the water hole 147 that can be used for water flow to pass through).
[0133] In the embodiment of the present application, it can also be understood that, in some possible examples, the second adjustment piece 146 can be fixed in the adjustment passage 1411, and the first adjustment piece 145 can rotate relative to the second adjustment piece 146. In addition, in some other possible examples, the first adjustment piece 145 and the second adjustment piece 146 can both rotate, for example, the first adjustment piece 145 and the second adjustment piece 146 rotate in opposite directions, or the first adjustment piece 145 and the second adjustment piece 146 rotate in the same direction, but there is a difference in rotation speed between the first adjustment piece 145 and the second adjustment piece 146, so that the first adjustment piece 145 and the second adjustment piece 146 rotate relative to each other.
[0134] Fig. 9 is a schematic diagram of a matching structure of a first adjusting piece and a second adjusting piece in a flow path control assembly provided in an embodiment of the present application, Fig.10 is another structural schematic diagram of the cooperation between the first adjusting piece and the second adjusting piece in the flow path control assembly provided in an embodiment of the present application, Fig.11 This is another structural schematic diagram of the cooperation between the first adjustment piece and the second adjustment piece in the flow path control assembly provided in an embodiment of the present application.
[0135] As a specific example of the embodiment of the present application, refer to Figure 9-11 As shown, in the embodiment of the present application, the water hole 147 is provided on the first adjustment sheet 145 as a specific example. Fig. 9 As shown, the second regulating piece 146 completely covers or blocks the water hole 147. At this time, the regulating passage 1411 is closed, and all the raw water enters the water softener for treatment.
[0136] by Fig. 9 and Fig.10 The direction shown in FIG. 1 is used as a reference example. The second adjusting piece 146 can be rotated counterclockwise relative to the first adjusting piece 145. Specifically, Fig. 9 Rotate the position shown to Fig.10 The position shown in FIG. 14 is a position where a portion of the water hole 147 is opened, and raw water can pass through the water hole 147 to mix with the soft water treated by the water softener.
[0137] When the second adjusting piece 146 continues to rotate, Fig.10 Rotate to the position shown in Fig.11 When the second regulating piece 146 is in the position shown in FIG. 1 , the second regulating piece 146 is completely removed from the water passage hole 147 , and the water passage hole 147 is fully opened. At this time, the raw water is mixed with the softened water in the maximum proportion.
[0138] In the embodiment of the present application, a first adjusting piece 145 and a second adjusting piece 146 are arranged in the adjusting passage 1411, and a water hole 147 is arranged on any one of the first adjusting piece 145 and the second adjusting piece 146. In this way, when the second adjusting piece 146 rotates relative to the first adjusting piece 145, the opening area of the water hole 147 can be adjusted and controlled, thereby conveniently adjusting the water supply ratio of the direct water supply from the water source; in addition, by adjusting the opening area of the water hole 147 by rotating the two adjusting pieces relative to each other, it is possible to ensure that the opening area of the water hole 147 changes linearly, thereby making the water supply ratio of the direct water supply from the water source change linearly, thereby realizing stepless regulation in the water quality regulation process, and improving the accuracy of water quality regulation.
[0139] In some optional examples of the embodiments of the present application, continue to refer to Figure 9-11 As shown, there are two water holes 147 , which are arranged opposite to each other along the radial direction of the first adjustment sheet 145 ; the cross-sectional area of the second adjustment sheet 146 is greater than or equal to the cross-sectional area of the two water holes 147 .
[0140] In a specific configuration, the second adjusting piece 146 can rotate around the axial direction of the first adjusting piece 145 , that is, the rotation axis of the second adjusting piece 146 is coaxial with the axial direction of the first adjusting piece 145 .
[0141] In the embodiment of the present application, two water holes 147 are provided, so that when adjusting, the second adjustment piece 146 rotates through the same angle, and the opening area of the two water holes 147 can be adjusted (for example, refer to Fig.10 As shown, the two water holes 147 can be opened at the same time), which can effectively reduce the angle that the second adjustment piece 146 needs to rotate, thereby improving the adjustment efficiency.
[0142] Continue to refer to Figure 9-10 In some optional examples of the embodiment of the present application, the water hole 147 is a fan-shaped hole, and the vertex angles of the two fan-shaped holes are opposite; the radial cross-section of the second adjustment piece 146 is a butterfly shape. It can be understood that in the embodiment of the present application, the vertex angle of the two fan-shaped holes can specifically refer to the angle of the fan-shaped holes facing the first adjustment piece 145 or the second adjustment piece 146.
[0143] In the embodiment of the present application, the water holes 147 are set as fan-shaped holes, and the top angles of the two fan-shaped holes are opposite to each other; thus, when the butterfly-shaped second adjustment piece 146 rotates, the two water holes 147 can be conveniently controlled at the same time, thereby improving the adjustment efficiency. In addition, by setting the water holes 147 as fan-shaped holes, since the fan-shaped holes are concentric with the first adjustment piece 145 or the second adjustment piece 146, when the first adjustment piece 145 and the second adjustment piece 146 rotate relative to each other, the opening area of the fan-shaped holes changes uniformly, thus facilitating the determination of the water mixing ratio at each angle of relative rotation of the first adjustment piece 145 and the second adjustment piece 146, thereby improving the accuracy of the water quality after mixing, that is, improving the accuracy of water quality adjustment.
[0144] In an optional example of the embodiment of the present application, refer to Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, the adjustment mechanism 140 further includes: a driving member 148, which is connected to one of the first adjustment plate 145 and the second adjustment plate 146, and the driving member 148 is suitable for driving one of the first adjustment plate 145 and the second adjustment plate 146 to rotate relative to the other.
[0145] As a specific example of the embodiment of the present application, the driving member 148 can be specifically connected to the second adjusting piece 146, that is, in the embodiment of the present application, the first adjusting piece 145 is fixed in the adjusting passage 1411, and the second adjusting piece 146 rotates relative to the first adjusting piece 145 under the drive of the driving member 148. In a specific setting, the second adjusting piece 146 can be fixed on the output shaft of the driving member 148, for example, the circumferential degree of freedom of the second adjusting piece 146 and the output shaft of the driving member 148 is limited by a spline, so that the driving member 148 drives the second adjusting piece 146 to rotate.
[0146] In the embodiment of the present application, the driving member 148 is connected to one of the first adjusting plate 145 and the second adjusting plate 146. In this way, when the driving member 148 drives one of the first adjusting plate 145 and the second adjusting plate 146 to rotate, the first adjusting plate 145 and the second adjusting plate 146 rotate relative to each other, thereby adjusting the water flow area of the water hole 147, that is, adjusting the mixing ratio of raw water and soft water, and the water quality can be conveniently adjusted to the required water hardness.
[0147] In an optional example of the embodiment of the present application, continue to refer to Figure 8 As shown, the adjustment mechanism 140 also includes: a zero position sensor 149 and a zero position paddle 1410, the zero position paddle 1410 is connected to the output shaft of the driving member 148, and the zero position paddle 1410 rotates relative to the zero position sensor 149, and the zero position paddle 1410 is suitable for indicating that the second adjustment plate 146 completely covers the water hole 147 when it contacts the zero position sensor 149.
[0148] Specifically, in the embodiment of the present application, the zero position sensor 149 can be any one of a Hall sensor, a photoelectric sensor or a contact sensor. The zero position paddle 1410 can be set on the output shaft of the driving member 148 and fixed to the output shaft of the driving member 148. In this way, when the output shaft of the driving member 148 rotates, it can drive the zero position paddle 1410 to rotate, thereby inducing the zero position sensor and indicating whether the second adjustment piece 146 completely covers the water hole 147.
[0149] As a specific example of an embodiment of the present application, when the zero position sensor 149 is a Hall sensor, the zero position paddle 1410 can specifically be a permanent magnet (such as a magnet). When the zero position paddle 1410 contacts the zero position sensor 149, the Hall sensor is triggered, thereby determining that the second adjustment piece 146 completely covers the water hole 147.
[0150] In the embodiment of the present application, a zero position sensor 149 and a zero position paddle 1410 are provided, so that when the water quality is adjusted, after the flow path control component 10 is powered on, the drive member 148 can perform a zero position self-check, thereby ensuring the accuracy of the water quality adjustment.
[0151] In an optional example of the embodiment of the present application, the driving member 148 is a controllable motor, and when the zero-position paddle 1410 contacts the zero-position sensor 149 , the rotation angle of the controllable motor is 0°.
[0152] It can be understood that in the embodiments of the present application, the controllable motor may specifically refer to a motor whose rotation angle is controllable; for example, in some examples, the controllable motor may be any one of a stepper motor, a servo motor or a synchronous motor. As a specific example, the controllable motor may specifically be a stepper motor.
[0153] In the embodiment of the present application, the rotation angle of the controllable motor is determined to be 0° (i.e., the water hole 147 is completely closed) when the zero-position paddle 1410 contacts the zero-position sensor 149. In this way, each time the water quality needs to be adjusted, the controllable motor can drive one of the first adjustment plate 145 and the second adjustment plate 146 to rotate from 0°. In this way, the angle that the controllable motor needs to rotate can be determined according to the water quality requirements, thereby ensuring the accuracy of the adjustment.
[0154] In some optional examples, the mixing ratio of raw water and soft water corresponding to different water quality requirements can be determined according to different water pressures and different raw water qualities, and then the angle that the controllable motor needs to rotate is determined according to the mixing ratio. As a specific example, in the embodiment of the present application, the water supply pressure can be determined according to the corresponding water supply industry standards, national standards or international standards; similarly, the remote water quality can also be determined according to industry standards, national standards or international standards. In this way, the water hardness corresponding to different mixing ratios can be easily and quickly determined, thereby facilitating the determination of the angle that the controllable motor needs to rotate.

[0157] Specifically, in the embodiment of the present application, the water quality tester 160 can be a hardness tester. When specifically set, the water quality tester 160 can be set at the rear end where the second flow path pipe 120 and the communication path pipe 130 are connected. That is, in the direction of water flow, the water quality tester 160 is set on the flow path after the raw water and the soft water are mixed, so that the hardness of the mixed water can be tested or detected.
[0158] It is understood that, in the embodiment of the present application, the water quality tester 160 can be specifically connected to the processor by communication, for example, the water quality tester 160 and the processor are connected to the processor by wired or wireless communication.

It is also understood that, in the embodiment of the present application, a comparison circuit is provided in the processor, and the water quality tester 160 sends the detected water hardness information to the processor, and the processor compares the comparison circuit with the preset water quality (for example, the water hardness set according to the user's needs), thereby determining the angle of rotation fine adjustment of the first adjustment plate 145 and the second adjustment plate 146.
[0159] It can also be understood that in the embodiment of the present application, the processor can be a processor that comes with the water treatment device itself. In some examples, the processor can also be set on other devices, for example, in some examples, the processor can be set on a mobile phone, a tablet computer, or a debugging device used by an installation engineer.
[0160] In the embodiment of the present application, a water quality tester 160 is arranged at the rear end where the second flow path pipe 120 and the connecting path pipe 130 are connected. In this way, the sensing probe penetrating the second flow path pipe 120 can monitor the mixed water quality, thereby facilitating the driving member 148 to fine-tune the second adjustment plate 146 according to the monitoring results, thereby ensuring the accuracy of water quality adjustment.
[0161] Continue to refer to Figure 4 and Fig.12 As shown, in some optional examples of the embodiments of the present application, the water quality tester 160 is detachably connected to the second flow path pipeline 120 .
[0162] Specifically, in the embodiment of the present application, a mounting hole 125 may be provided at the rear end of the second flow path pipeline 120, and the water quality tester 160 may be specifically inserted into the mounting hole 125. As a specific example, an internal thread may be provided in the mounting hole 125, and an external thread may be provided on the peripheral wall of the water quality tester 160, and the water quality tester 160 and the mounting hole 125 may be detachably connected by a threaded connection.
[0163] In this way, the water quality tester 160 can be easily disassembled and installed. When the detection part of the water quality tester 160 is inaccurate or needs to be calibrated, the water quality tester 160 can be conveniently disassembled and repaired.
[0164] Reference Figure 4 and Fig.12 As shown, in some optional examples of the embodiments of the present application, the second flow path pipeline 120 is provided with a second connection portion 123, and the second connection portion 123 is provided with a third limiting hole 124; the water quality tester 160 is passed through the second connection portion 123. That is, the mounting hole 125 in the aforementioned embodiments of the present application can be provided on the second connection portion 123.
[0165] The flow path control assembly 10 provided in the embodiment of the present application further includes a second latch 170 . The second latch 170 is inserted into the third limiting hole 124 , and the second latch 170 is held by the peripheral wall of the water quality tester 160 .
[0166] Specifically, in the embodiment of the present application, a limiting groove 181 or a card slot 115 can be set on the peripheral wall of the water quality tester 160. After the second pin 170 is inserted into the third limiting hole 124, the second pin 170 is inserted into or carded into the limiting groove 181, thereby fixing the water quality tester 160.
[0167] In this way, the installation and disassembly efficiency of the water quality tester 160 is improved. When the water quality tester 160 needs to be disassembled, it is only necessary to pull out the second latch 170 , which facilitates the replacement and maintenance of the water quality tester 160 .
[0168] Fig.13 is a top view of a flow path control assembly provided in an embodiment of the present application, Fig.14 This is another top view of the flow control assembly provided in an embodiment of the present application.
[0169] In some other optional examples of the embodiments of the present application, refer to Fig.14 As shown, the driving member 148 is any one of a knob, a rotating handle or a rotating hand wheel; the adjustment mechanism 140 is provided with an indication mark 101 indicating the rotation angle of the driving member 148.
[0170] That is to say, in the embodiment of the present application, the driving member 148 may also be a manually adjustable knob, a rotating handle or a rotating handwheel. When installing or when the water hardness needs to be adjusted, the user can rotate the first adjustment plate 145 or the second adjustment plate 146 by means of a knob, a rotating handle or a rotating handwheel. Among them, the indicator mark 101 may indicate the mixing ratio of raw water and soft water, so as to obtain different water hardnesses. Alternatively, in some other examples of the embodiment of the present application, the indicator mark 101 may also be a hardness value that directly indicates the hardness of the mixed water. It is understandable that in the embodiment of the present application, the type of the indicator mark 101 is only used as an example to illustrate some specific examples, and does not limit the specific type of the indicator mark 101. For example, in other examples, the indicator mark 101 may also be a rotation angle value, etc.
[0171] In the embodiment of the present application, by setting an indicator mark 101 indicating the rotation angle of the driving member 148 on the adjustment mechanism 140, when the user adjusts the water hardness, the rotation angle of the driving member 148 can be easily determined, that is, the mixing ratio of raw water and soft water can be determined. The hardness value required by the user can be quickly adjusted, thereby improving the adjustment efficiency.
[0172] In addition, it is also understandable that, with reference to Fig.13 As shown, in some optional examples of the embodiments of the present application, when the driving member 148 is a motor, an indicator mark 101 may also be provided on the adjustment mechanism 140. In this way, in the first aspect, the housing of the manual and electric adjustment adjustment mechanism can be produced by using one mold, which can save production costs; in addition, the indicator mark 101 can also play a preliminary indication role for the rotation angle of the motor, and can preliminarily determine whether the adjustment rotation angle of the motor meets the user's water hardness requirements when adjusting the water quality.
[0173] Continue to refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, in some optional examples of the embodiments of the present application, the flow path control component 10 also includes: a first adapter 180 and a second adapter 190 .
[0174] Specifically, in the embodiment of the present application, the first adapter 180 is detachably inserted into the first inlet 111 . In addition, the second adapter 190 is detachably inserted into the second outlet 122 .
[0175] In specific configurations, the first adapter 180 and the second adapter 190 may both be straight pipe adapters. Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 4As shown, the first adapter 180 and the second adapter 190 may also be elbow adapters (e.g., right-angle adapters). By using the elbow adapter, the connection space between the external pipeline and the flow control assembly 10 can be extended, which facilitates the connection of the external pipeline. It can be understood that in other optional examples of the embodiments of the present application, one of the first adapter 180 and the second adapter 190 may be a straight pipe adapter, and the other of the first adapter 180 and the second adapter 190 may be an elbow adapter.
[0176] During the specific installation and connection, the first adapter 180 and the second adapter 190 can be connected to the external device first, and then the first adapter 180 is inserted into the first inlet 111, and the second adapter 190 is inserted into the second outlet 122; thereby, the external pipeline can be conveniently and quickly connected to the flow control component 10 provided in the embodiment of the present application, thereby improving the efficiency of the connection between the flow control component 10 and the external pipeline.
[0177] In the embodiment of the present application, a first adapter 180 is detachably inserted into the first inlet 111, so that the water supply pipe of the water supply source is connected to the first inlet 111. In addition, a second adapter 190 is detachably inserted into the second outlet 122, so that the second outlet 122 is connected to the water-using equipment, thereby improving the installation efficiency of the flow control component 10.
[0178] In an optional example of the embodiment of the present application, refer to Figure 4 As shown, a third connecting portion 113 is provided at the end of the first flow path pipeline 110 and the second flow path pipeline 120, and a fourth limiting hole 114 is provided on the third connecting portion 113. The first adapter 180 is inserted in the third connecting portion 113, and the first adapter 180 is connected to the first inlet 111; the second adapter 190 is inserted in the third connecting portion 113, and the second adapter 190 is connected to the second outlet 122.
[0179] Specifically, in the embodiment of the present application, the third connection portion 113 can connect the first flow path pipeline 110 and the second flow path pipeline 120 as a whole. Of course, in some examples, a third connection portion 113 can be provided at the end of the first flow path pipeline 110, and a third connection portion 113 can also be provided at the end of the second flow path pipeline 120.
[0180] It can be understood that the third connection portion 113 can be a radial protrusion from the outer peripheral wall of the first flow path pipe 110 and the second flow path pipe 120 along the radial direction of the first flow path pipe 110 and the second flow path pipe 120. In this way, the third connection portion 113 can also strengthen the ends of the first flow path pipe 110 and the second flow path pipe 120, and can improve the stability of the external pipe after the connection with the flow control component 10.
[0181] In the specific setting, the fourth limiting hole 114 on the third connecting portion 113 is set in the same or similar manner as the first limiting hole 132 or the third limiting hole 124 in the aforementioned embodiments of the present application. For details, please refer to the detailed description of the first limiting hole 132 or the third limiting hole 124 in the aforementioned embodiments of the present application, and the embodiments of the present application will not repeat them again.
[0182] In the embodiment of the present application, the flow path control component 10 also includes: a third pin 1100, the third pin 1100 is inserted into the fourth limiting hole 114, and the third pin 1100 is clamped on the peripheral wall of the first adapter 180, and / or the third pin 1100 is clamped on the peripheral wall of the second adapter 190.
[0183] Specifically, in the embodiment of the present application, the specific structure of the third latch 1100 may be the same as or similar to the structure of the first latch 150 and the second latch 170 in the aforementioned embodiments of the present application. For details, reference may be made to the detailed description of the first latch 150 and the second latch 170 in the aforementioned embodiments of the present application.
[0184] In the embodiment of the present application, a third connecting portion 113 is provided at the ends of the first flow path pipe 110 and the second flow path pipe 120, a fourth limiting hole 114 is provided on the third connecting portion 113, and a third latch 1100 is passed through the fourth limiting hole 114 to clamp the first adapter 180 and the second adapter 190. In this way, the installation and disassembly efficiency of the first adapter 180 and the second adapter 190 can be effectively improved, and the equipment maintenance and installation efficiency can be improved.
[0185] Fig.15 It is a schematic diagram of the structure of the first adapter and the second adapter in the flow control assembly provided in an embodiment of the present application.
[0186] In an optional example of the embodiment of the present application, refer to Fig.15 As shown, a limiting groove 181 is provided on the peripheral wall of the first adapter 180 and the second adapter 190 , and the third latch 1100 is clamped in the limiting groove 181 .
[0187] Specifically, in the embodiment of the present application, the limiting groove 181 can be provided on a portion of the circumferential wall of the first adapter 180 and the second adapter 190 along the circumferential direction. Alternatively, in other optional examples, the limiting groove 181 can also be provided on the entire circumferential wall of the first adapter 180 and the second adapter 190 along the circumferential direction, so that the first adapter 180 and the second adapter 190 can be easily rotated along the limiting groove 181, thereby facilitating the adjustment of the switching direction of the first adapter 180 and the second adapter 190. It can be understood that in the embodiment of the present application, the switching directions of the first adapter 180 and the second adapter 190 can be different, for example Fig.15The first adapter 180 and the second adapter 190 shown in the figure are arranged opposite to each other. Of course, in some examples, the switching directions of the first adapter 180 and the second adapter 190 can also be the same. When the switching directions of the first adapter 180 and the second adapter 190 are the same, the lengths of the first adapter 180 and the second adapter 190 can be set to be different, so as to facilitate the switching arrangement of the two adapters.
[0188] In the embodiment of the present application, a limiting groove 181 is provided on the first adapter 180 and the second adapter 190. Thus, when the latch is inserted into the fourth limiting hole 114, part of the latch is stuck in the limiting groove 181, which facilitates the installation and disassembly of the first adapter 180 and the second adapter 190 and can effectively improve the efficiency of assembly and disassembly during maintenance.
[0189] Fig.16 It is a schematic diagram of the structure of the third pin in the flow control assembly provided in an embodiment of the present application.
[0190] In some optional examples of the embodiments of the present application, refer to Fig.16 As shown, the third latch 1100 includes two limiting arms 1101 , which are clamped in the limiting groove 181 , and the two limiting arms 1101 are located on both sides of the first adapter 180 , and / or the two limiting arms 1101 are located on both sides of the second adapter 190 .
[0191] Specifically, in the embodiment of the present application, the two limiting arms 1101 can be arranged opposite to each other. In the specific arrangement, two limiting grooves 181 can be arranged on opposite sides of the first adapter 180 and the second adapter 190, so that after the third latch 1100 is inserted into the fourth limiting hole 114, the two limiting arms 1101 can be inserted into both sides of the first adapter 180, or the two limiting arms 1101 can be inserted into both sides of the second adapter 190. Alternatively, in other examples, the two limiting arms 1101 are also inserted into both sides of the first plug connector and the second plug connector at the same time.
[0192] In the embodiment of the present application, two limiting arms 1101 are clamped with both sides of the first adapter 180 and / or the second adapter 190. Thus, after the first adapter 180 and the second adapter 190 are clamped, both sides of the first adapter 180 and the second adapter 190 are subjected to the same limiting fixing force, which can ensure that the forces on the first adapter 180 and the second adapter 190 are balanced, and avoid the occurrence of local stress on the first adapter 180 and the second adapter 190, thereby ensuring the sealing of the first adapter 180 and the second adapter 190 after being connected to the third connecting portion 113.
[0193] In some optional examples of the embodiments of the present application, refer to Figure 4As shown, the third latches 1100 include two, one of the two third latches 1100 is connected to the first adapter 180 , and the other of the two third latches 1100 is connected to the second adapter 190 .
[0194] Specifically, refer to Figure 4 As described above, the two third latches 1100 may be arranged in opposite directions. It is understood that in some possible examples, the two third latches 1100 may also be arranged in different directions. Figure 4 As shown, one of the two third latch pins 1100 can be inserted into the fourth limiting hole 114 along the direction shown by the x-axis; the other third latch pin 1100 can be inserted into the fourth limiting hole 114 along the direction shown by the x-axis; Figure 4 The direction indicated by the middle y-axis is inserted into the fourth limiting hole 114. That is, in the embodiment of the present application, the fourth limiting hole 114 for limiting the first adapter 180 and the second adapter 190 can also be respectively set in different directions.
[0195] In the embodiment of the present application, two third latches 1100 are provided, one of which is engaged with the first adapter 180, and the other of which is engaged with the second adapter 190. Thus, when the external pipeline needs to be replaced, only one of the adapters needs to be disassembled. For example, when the water inlet pipe needs to be replaced, only the first adapter 180 needs to be disassembled, which can reduce the workload of disassembly and replacement, thereby improving maintenance efficiency.
[0196] Continue to refer to Fig.16 As shown, in another optional example of the embodiment of the present application, the third pin 1100 is provided with one of the buckle 1102 or the slot 115 on the side facing the third connecting portion 113, and the third connecting portion 113 is provided with the other of the buckle 1102 or the slot 115; the third pin 1100 is connected to the third connecting portion 113 via the buckle 1102 and the slot 115.
[0197] As a specific example of the embodiment of the present application, Fig.16In the figure, the buckle 1102 is provided on the side of the third latch 1100 facing the third connection part 113 as a specific example. In the specific setting, the buckle 1102 can be two elastic arms arranged opposite to each other, and a certain gap is reserved between the two elastic arms, so that when the elastic arm is inserted into the slot 115 arranged on the third connection part 113, the elastic arm can be deformed to a certain extent, so that the hook on the side of the elastic arm abuts against the inner wall of the slot 115 to be fixed. It can be understood that when the buckle 1102 is provided on the third connection part 113 and the slot 115 is provided on the third latch 1100, the specific setting method of the buckle 1102 can be the same or similar to that when it is provided on the third latch 1100, and this will not be repeated in the embodiments of the present application.
[0198] In the embodiment of the present application, a buckle 1102 or a slot 115 is provided on the side of the third latch 1100 facing the third connection portion 113, and the other of the buckle 1102 or the slot 115 is provided on the third connection portion 113; thus, after the third latch 1100 is inserted into the fourth limiting hole 114, the third latch 1100 can be fixed to the third connection portion 113 by the buckle 1102 and the slot 115, which can effectively prevent the third latch 1100 from falling off or sliding off the fourth limiting hole 114, thereby improving the stability of the third latch 1100 in fixing the first adapter 180 and the second adapter 190.
[0199] Continue to refer to Fig.15 As shown, in some optional examples of the embodiments of the present application, a filter screen 182 is provided in the first adapter 180 and the second adapter 190 .
[0200] Specifically, in the embodiment of the present application, the filter 182 can be mounted on a side of the first adapter 180 that faces the first inlet 111 , or the filter 182 can be mounted on a side of the second adapter 190 that faces the second outlet 122 .
[0201] By arranging the filter net 182 in the first adapter 180 and the second adapter 190, the filter net 182 can perform preliminary filtration on some larger solid particles (such as gravel or rust) in the raw water, thereby preventing the solid particles from entering the equipment body of the water treatment equipment, and effectively protecting the equipment body of the water treatment equipment.
[0202] In some optional examples of the embodiments of the present application, refer to Figure 1-4 As shown, the flow control assembly 10 further includes: a flow switching member 1110, the flow switching member 1110 is disposed in the communication passage pipe 130; the flow switching member 1110 has a first position and a second position.
[0203] Specifically, in the embodiments of the present application, refer to Figure 3 As shown, the first position may specifically refer to the position when a valve plate located in the middle of the flow path switching member 1110 is located in the middle of the communication path pipe 130, which may specifically refer to the position when the valve plate located in the middle of the flow path switching member 1110 is located in the middle of the communication path pipe 130. Figure 3 The second position can be specifically to move the flow path switching element 1110 along Figure 3 Pull in the direction shown by the x-axis so that Figure 3 The middle valve moves to Figure 3 The position shown by the dotted line frame (i.e., moved to the second position); that is, Figure 3 As an example, Figure 3 When the valve plate at the middle position moves to the position shown by the dotted line frame, the flow path switching member 1110 is located at the second position.
[0204] It can be understood that in the embodiment of the present application, when the flow switching element 1110 is in the first position, the first inlet 111 and the first outlet 112 are connected, that is, when the flow switching element 1110 is in the first position, the first flow path pipeline 110 is in a conducting state, and at least part of the raw water enters the water softener for softening treatment.
[0205] In addition, when the flow path switching element 1110 is located at the second position, refer to Figure 3 As shown, the first inlet 111 and the second inlet 121 are disconnected, that is, the first flow path pipe 110 is blocked, so that the raw water cannot enter the water softener for treatment. In addition, the first inlet 111 and the second outlet 122 are connected through the connecting passage pipe 130, so that the raw water can be directly taken. In the embodiment of the present application, by inserting the flow path switching member 1110 in the connecting passage pipe 130, when the equipment body of the water treatment equipment needs to be repaired and maintained, the flow path switching member 1110 can be switched to the second position, so that the flow path directly enters from the first inlet 111, passes through the connecting passage pipe 130, and is discharged from the second outlet 122 without passing through the equipment body. In this way, the maintenance work of the equipment body is convenient, and the maintenance efficiency is improved.
[0206] As a specific example of the embodiment of the present application, continue to refer to Figure 3 As shown, the flow path switching member 1110 includes: a moving shaft 1111 and a first valve plate 1112. The moving shaft 1111 is disposed in the flow path pipe along the axial direction of the flow path pipe and can move along the axial direction of the flow path pipe.
[0207] In the embodiment of the present application, the first valve plate 1112 is sleeved on the middle part of the movable shaft 1111. When the flow path switching member 1110 is in the first position, the first valve plate 1112 is blocked in the middle part of the connecting passage pipe 130, so that the first flow path pipe 110 and the second flow path pipe 120 are connected through the connecting passage pipe 130 and the adjusting passage 1411 of the adjusting mechanism 140; when the flow path switching member 1110 is in the second position, the first valve plate 1112 is blocked between the front end of the connecting passage pipe 130 and the rear end of the first flow path pipe 110.
[0208] Specifically, in the embodiment of the present application, the first valve plate 1112 may be a ceramic plate, and a second sealing ring 1114 may be provided on the peripheral wall of the first valve plate 1112, and the second sealing ring 1114 abuts against the inner wall of the communication passage pipe 130. Figure 3 As shown, in the embodiment of the present application, the front end of the connecting passage pipe 130 may specifically refer to an end of the connecting passage pipe 130 that is directed toward / facing the first flow passage pipe 110, and the rear end of the first flow passage pipe 110 may specifically refer to an end of the first flow passage pipe 110 that is directed toward the first outlet 112.
[0209] In the embodiment of the present application, when the flow path switching member 1110 is in the second position, the first valve plate 1112 blocks the front end of the connecting passage pipe 130 and the rear end of the first flow path pipe 110. In this way, the first flow path pipe 110 is cut off by the first valve plate 1112, so that the raw water flows completely from the connecting passage pipe 130 to the second flow path pipe 120, which can facilitate the inspection and maintenance of the water softener.
[0210] Continue to refer to Figure 3 As shown, in some optional examples of the embodiments of the present application, the flow path switching member 1110 further includes: a second valve plate 1113 , and the second valve plate 1113 is sleeved on the side of the movable shaft 1111 facing the second flow path pipeline 120 .
[0211] Specifically, refer to Figure 3 As shown, when the flow path switching member 1110 is in the first position, the second valve plate 1113 is located on the side of the communication passage pipe 130 facing away from the first flow path pipe 110. At this time, the second inlet 121 and the second outlet 122 of the second flow path pipe 120 are connected to each other, that is, the second flow path pipe 120 is in a conducting state, and the softened water in the water softener flows from the second flow path pipe 120.
[0212] When the flow path switching element 1110 is in the second position (i.e., referring to Figure 3 As shown, the active axis along Figure 3When the first valve disc 1112 moves in the direction indicated by x in the figure, and the first valve disc 1112 moves to the position indicated by the dotted line frame), the second valve disc 1113 blocks between the front end of the second flow path pipe 120 and the rear end of the communication path pipe 130. That is to say, at this time, the second valve disc 1113 cuts off the second flow path pipe 120, the second inlet 121 and the second outlet 122 of the second flow path pipe 120 cannot be connected, and the soft water in the water softener cannot flow from the second pipe.
[0213] In other words, in the embodiment of the present application, when the flow switching member moves to the second position, the first valve plate 1112 blocks the first flow path pipe 110, and the second valve plate 1113 blocks the second flow path pipe 120. The flow path in the flow control component 10 only has one flow path, namely the first inlet 111, the connecting passage pipe 130, and the second outlet 122. Raw water flows through this flow path, and the raw water will not enter the water softener. This can effectively avoid the influence of raw water when the water softener is repaired, thereby improving the maintenance efficiency of the water softener.
[0214] As an optional example of the embodiment of the present application, refer to Figure 3 As shown, in the embodiment of the present application, a third valve disc 1115 may also be arranged on the movable shaft, and the third valve disc 1115 is arranged on the side of the first valve disc 1112 facing away from the second valve disc 1113, and the first valve disc 1112 is located at the middle position between the second valve disc 1113 and the third valve disc 1115. In this way, when switching the flow path, the moving direction of the flow path switching member 1110 may also be along Figure 3 Moving in the opposite direction to the direction indicated by the x-axis improves the flexibility of switching the flow path.
[0215] Fig.17 It is a schematic diagram of the topological structure of the water treatment equipment provided in the embodiment of the present application.
[0216] Reference Fig.17 As shown, the embodiment of the present application further provides a processing device, including a device body 20 and a flow path control component 10 provided by any optional example in the aforementioned embodiments of the present application. The device body 20 has a third inlet 201 and a third outlet 202, the first flow path pipeline 110 of the flow path control component 10 is connected to the third inlet 201, and the second flow path pipeline 120 of the flow path control component 10 is connected to the third outlet 202.
[0217] Specifically, in the embodiment of the present application, the first outlet 112 of the first flow path pipeline 110 is connected to the third inlet 201 , and the second inlet 121 of the second flow path pipeline 120 is connected to the third outlet 202 .
