At this time, the pure water quality at the outlet of the purified water can just meet the drinking water standard, that is, if the raw water quality index exceeds this preset water quality index, the two reverse osmosis filter elements connected in parallel will not be able to meet the water purification requirements. By obtaining the water quality index of the raw water and comparing it with the preset water quality index, it is determined whether the water quality exceeds the standard. If it exceeds the standard, it is necessary to switch the connection state of the two reverse osmosis filter elements to a series state to improve the processing capacity of the water purification system.

[0040] In an optional embodiment, the water purification control method further comprises the following steps:

Even if the raw water quality is extremely deteriorated, the raw water is purified through multiple filtrations to meet the drinking water quality requirements, thereby improving the purification system's ability to cope with a significant deterioration in the raw water quality, ensuring the quality of the purified water, improving the safety of drinking water, and improving the reliability of the water purification system.

[0076] In some embodiments, the first valve disc 10 is a movable valve, and the second valve disc 20 is a fixed valve; or, the first valve disc 10 is a fixed valve, and the second valve disc 20 is a movable valve.

[0077] One of the first valve plate 10 and the second valve plate 20 is a movable valve, and the other is a fixed valve. One of the two valve plates tightly attached to each other rotates relative to the other to achieve the change of the connecting channel. The structure is simple, the channel switching efficiency is high, and the switching reliability is high.

[0078] In some embodiments, the first valve disc 10 is a movable valve, and the first valve disc 10 is transmission-connected with a valve disc driving member; or, the second valve disc 20 is a movable valve, and the second valve disc 20 is transmission-connected with a valve disc driving member.

[0079] The movable valve rotates under the drive of the driving member connected to it, which is more convenient than manual adjustment and also convenient for intelligent control. The valve plate driving member is a motor, which is driven by a motor and is easy to control.

[0080] In a second aspect, the present invention further provides a water purification system having a raw water inlet 7, a purified water outlet 8 and a waste water outlet 9, the water purification system comprising:

[0081] Pumping device;

[0082] A first reverse osmosis filter element 1;

[0083] The second reverse osmosis filter element 2;

[0084] At least one multi-channel control valve is connected to the first reverse osmosis filter element 1 and the second reverse osmosis filter element 2 through a pipeline, and can control the first reverse osmosis filter element 1 and the second reverse osmosis filter element 2 to switch between a parallel state and a series state.

[0085] The water purification system includes the multi-channel control valve of the present invention, which can control the first reverse osmosis filter element 1 and the second reverse osmosis filter element 2 to switch between a parallel state and a series state. Under normal conditions, the first reverse osmosis filter element 1 and the second reverse osmosis filter element 2 work in parallel. When the water quality deteriorates significantly, the multi-channel control valve is used to switch the connection state of the first reverse osmosis filter element 1 and the second reverse osmosis filter element 2 to a series state, thereby increasing the water purification capacity of the water purification system, so that the pure water can still meet the drinking water quality requirements, thereby improving the ability of the purification system to cope with changes in raw water quality, ensuring the safety of the purified water quality, and improving the reliability of the water purification system.

[0086] In some embodiments, the water purification system further includes a wastewater valve assembly, which is disposed in a wastewater discharge pipeline connected to the wastewater outlet 9 .

[0087] A wastewater valve assembly is provided, and when wastewater needs to be discharged, the wastewater discharge pipeline can be connected to the wastewater outlet 9, which is convenient for operation.

[0088] In some embodiments, the waste valve assembly includes:

[0089] A first wastewater valve 3 is disposed between the first reverse osmosis filter element 1 and the wastewater outlet 9;

[0090] The second wastewater valve 4 is arranged between the second reverse osmosis filter element 2 and the wastewater outlet 9 .

[0091] Each reverse osmosis filter element is equipped with a corresponding wastewater valve, which can be controlled individually and has higher flexibility.

[0092] In an optional embodiment, the pumping device comprises:

[0093] The first water pump 5 is arranged between the raw water inlet 7 and the first reverse osmosis filter element 1;

[0094] The second water pump 6 is disposed between the raw water inlet 7 and the second reverse osmosis filter element 2 .

[0095] The pumping device for providing water circulation power for the water purification system includes a first water pump 5 for providing pumping power for the pipeline where the first reverse osmosis filter element 1 is located and a second water pump 6 for providing pumping power for the pipeline where the second reverse osmosis filter element 2 is located, so as to facilitate the first reverse osmosis filter element 1 and the second reverse osmosis filter element 2 to independently purify water in a parallel state. Moreover, using two water pumps can reduce the noise of the water purification system and improve the user experience compared with using a large water pump.

[0096] In some embodiments, the water purification system further comprises:

[0097] Control unit;

[0098] Water quality testing units are installed at 7 raw water inlets;

[0099] The valve plate driving member is used to drive the first valve plate 10 or the second valve plate 20 to rotate; the water quality detection unit, the valve plate driving member and the pumping device are respectively connected to the control unit.

[0100] A water quality detection unit is provided to monitor the raw water quality and provide feedback to the control unit, so as to adjust the connection status of the first reverse osmosis filter element 1 and the second reverse osmosis filter element 2 according to the change of water quality. When the water quality is normal, the two reverse osmosis filter elements are arranged in parallel. If the water quality deteriorates due to special circumstances such as raw water being polluted, the control unit can also promptly control the multi-channel control valve to switch the connecting pipeline, and transform the first reverse osmosis filter element 1 and the second reverse osmosis filter element 2 into a series state, thereby improving the water purification system's ability to respond to water quality changes, improving the reliability of the water purification system, and ensuring the safety of users' drinking water.

[0101] Specifically, the water quality detection unit includes a water quality detector. The water quality detector can be a water quality detector in the relevant technology. The main contents detected by the water quality detector include:

[0102] Physical and chemical indicators: including color, turbidity, odor and taste, visible substances, pH value, aluminum, arsenic, mercury, lead, cadmium, chromium, chloride, sulfate, cyanide, fluoride, nitrate, etc. These indicators reflect the physical and chemical properties of water, such as water hardness, pH value and possible harmful substances in water.

[0103] Microbial indicators: including total colony count, total coliform group, etc. These indicators are used to ensure the sanitation and safety of drinking water. Through testing, bacteria, viruses and other microorganisms in water sources can be discovered in time to prevent water pollution from causing harm to human health.

[0104] Toxicological evaluation: Testing and analysis of harmful substances that may be present in drinking water, such as heavy metals and organic matter, to assess their degree of harm to human health.

[0105] Organic matter detection: Detection and analysis of organic matter that may be present in drinking water to assess its potential harm to human health, including pesticide residues and industrial wastewater.

[0106] In addition to the above aspects, water quality detectors also include trace element detection, radioactive substance detection and other projects.

[0107] In a third aspect, the present invention further provides a water purification control method, which is applicable to the above-mentioned water purification system, and the water purification control method comprises the following steps:

[0108] Obtain the water quality index of raw water and compare it with the preset water quality index;

[0109] Determine whether the water quality exceeds the standard;

[0110] If the water quality exceeds the standard, the first reverse osmosis filter element 1 and the second reverse osmosis filter element 2 are controlled to switch from a parallel state to a series state.

[0111] The preset water quality index is the limit water quality index corresponding to the limit processing capacity of the water purification system when the first reverse osmosis filter element 1 and the second reverse osmosis filter element 2 are connected in parallel. At this time, the pure water quality at the water purification outlet 8 can just meet the drinking water standard, that is, if the raw water quality index exceeds this preset water quality index, the two reverse osmosis filter elements connected in parallel will not be able to meet the water purification requirements. By obtaining the water quality index of the raw water and comparing it with the preset water quality index, it is determined whether the water quality exceeds the standard. If it exceeds the standard, it is necessary to switch the connection state of the two reverse osmosis filter elements to a series state to improve the processing capacity of the water purification system.

[0112] As shown in the figure, a specific embodiment of the present invention provides a water purification system, wherein the multi-channel control valve of the water purification system includes a first valve plate 10 and a second valve plate 20. The three channels of the first valve plate 10 and the three channels of the second valve plate 20 can adjust the channels that are connected by adjusting the angle of the valve plate. The first valve plate 10 and the second valve plate 20 achieve sealing of different channels by tightly fitting.

[0113] The first valve disc 10 and the second valve disc 20 are preferably made of ceramic material.

[0114] The first valve disc 10 and the second valve disc 20 are tightly fitted together and then fixed by wrapping the outer part with a plastic member.

[0115] The second valve plate 20 and the three channels of the second valve plate 20 can be connected to the water channel interface in the water purification system. The first valve plate 10 has three channels A, C, and E, and the second valve plate 20 has three channels B, D, and F. In the water purification system. Channel A is connected to the pipeline interface between the raw water inlet and the first water pump 5, channel B is connected to the inlet of the second water pump 6, channel C is connected to the pipeline interface between the first wastewater valve 3 and the wastewater outlet 9, channel D is connected to the wastewater outlet 9 of the second RO filter element, channel E is connected to the pure water outlet of the first RO filter element, and channel F is connected to the interface on the second RO filter element and the pure water outlet pipeline.

[0116] Under normal municipal tap water conditions, when the multi-channel control valve is in the first state, channel A is connected to channel B, channel C is connected to channel D, channel E is connected to channel F, two RO filter elements are connected in parallel, the outlet water quality meets the requirements, and the outlet water flow rate is also large.

[0117] When the water quality of the water source deteriorates, adjust the multi-channel control valve to enter the second state, channel A is connected to channel D, channel E is connected to channel B, channel C and channel F are independent, and the two RO filter elements are connected in series, so that the water produced by the first RO filter element enters the second RO filter element for secondary filtration to ensure the safety of the outlet water quality.

[0118] The state of the multi-channel control valve is adjusted by driving the first valve plate 10 to rotate a certain angle by a stepping motor, or manually rotating the first valve plate 10 by a certain angle.

[0119] The present invention adjusts the operation mode of the water purification system by the conduction state of the multi-channel control valve to improve the water purification system's ability to cope with the impact caused by changes in raw water quality, thereby ensuring the safety of water quality discharged by users.

[0120] In some embodiments, the water purification control method comprises the following steps:

[0121] Obtain the water quality index of raw water and compare it with the preset water quality index;

[0122] Determine whether the water quality exceeds the standard;

[0123] If the water quality exceeds the standard, the first reverse osmosis filter element 1 and the second reverse osmosis filter element 2 are controlled to switch from a parallel state to a series state;

[0124] If the water quality is restored to meet the standard, the first reverse osmosis filter element 1 and the second reverse osmosis filter element 2 are controlled to switch from the series state to the associated state.

[0125] When the raw water quality is restored and it is determined that the preset water quality is met, the multi-channel water inlet valve can be controlled to return to its original state, and the first reverse osmosis filter element 1 and the second reverse osmosis filter element 2 are switched from the series state to the original associated state.
