[0028] refer to Figure 1 The present invention provides a water treatment component, comprising: Water inlet module 100; The water treatment module 200 is connected to the water inlet module 100, and the water treatment module 200 includes at least two water treatment units; A water distribution module 300 is connected to the water treatment module 200, and the water distribution module 300 is used to control the water treatment unit through which the output water flows; The control module 400 is electrically connected to the controlled end of the water treatment module 200 and the controlled end of the water distribution module 300 respectively; The water quality detection module 500 is connected to the water inlet module 100 and / or the water distribution module 300, and the control module 400 is electrically connected to the water quality detection module 500; The control module 400 is used to control the water treatment module 200 and the water distribution module 300 according to the water quality detection information and water demand information of the water quality detection module 500.

[0029] The water inlet module 100 transmits water from the water inlet source to the water treatment module 200. The water treatment module 200 includes at least two water treatment units. Different water treatment units perform different water treatments on the water flowing through. The water distribution module 300 can control the water treatment units through which the water flows. The water quality detection module 500 detects the water quality of the water inlet module 100 and / or the water distribution module 300, and transmits the water quality detection information obtained from the detection to the control module 400. The control module 400 controls the water treatment module and the water distribution module 300 according to the water quality detection information and the water demand information, so as to adjust the working parameters of the water treatment unit and thus adjust the water treatment effect, and adjust the water distribution module 300 to guide the water to flow through the required water treatment adjustment unit for water treatment and then discharge the water. In this way, the control module 400 determines the required water treatment and parameters based on the water quality and water demand, and then controls the water treatment module 200 and the water distribution module 300, so that the incoming water flows through the required water treatment unit for appropriate water treatment to form outflow water for supply. The corresponding water treatment unit can be used for water treatment according to different water demand, which is conducive to meeting diverse water demand.

[0030] In some embodiments of the present invention, the water inlet module 100 may include an implementation of a water inlet pipe and a water inlet pump, wherein the water inlet pump is arranged on the water inlet pipe to drive water to flow toward the water treatment module 200, and the control module 400 is electrically connected to the controlled end of the water inlet pump to control the start and stop of the water inlet pump.

[0031] In some embodiments of the present invention, the water quality detection module 500 may be an embodiment including at least two water quality sensors, one water quality sensor is connected to the water inlet module 100 to detect the water quality parameters of the inlet water, and one water quality sensor is connected to the water outlet of the water distribution module 300 to detect the water quality parameters of the outlet water. The detected water quality parameters of the inlet water and the water quality parameters of the outlet water are transmitted to the control module 400 as water quality detection information to achieve the effect of water quality detection. In some embodiments, the water quality sensor may also be connected to a specific water treatment unit to be detected to obtain the water treatment effect of the water treatment unit.

[0032] In some embodiments of the present invention, the control module 400 may be implemented as a device or circuit module having a control processing function, such as a single chip microcomputer and an embedded chip.

[0033] refer to Figure 1In some embodiments of the water treatment component provided by the present invention, the water treatment module 200 includes a temperature regulating unit 310, a mineralization regulating unit 320, a softening unit 330 and a water purification unit 340, all of which are connected to the water distribution module 300, at least one of the temperature regulating unit 310, the mineralization regulating unit 320, the softening unit 330 and the water purification unit 340 is connected to the water inlet module 100, and the control module 400 is electrically connected to the controlled end of the temperature regulating unit 310, the controlled end of the mineralization regulating unit 320, the controlled end of the softening unit 330 and the controlled end of the water purification unit 340, respectively.

[0034] The temperature regulating unit 310 regulates the water temperature, the mineralization regulating unit 320 regulates the mineral content of the water, the softening unit 330 softens the water to reduce the hardness of the water, and the water purification unit 340 purifies the water to remove impurity ions, etc. The control module 400 controls the water distribution module 300 according to the water demand to allow the water flow of the outlet to flow through the required water treatment unit, and adjusts the working parameters of the corresponding water treatment unit to achieve different water treatment effects, so that the outlet water has different effects, which is conducive to meeting diverse water needs.

[0035] refer to Figure 2 In some embodiments of the present invention, the water distribution module 300 may include a connecting pipe group, a control valve group, and an outlet pipe. Different connecting pipes in the connecting pipe group are respectively connected to different water treatment units of the water treatment module 200. Different control valves in the control valve group are arranged on different connecting pipes. The control module 400 is connected to the controlled end of each control valve, so that the control module 400 controls the path of the water flow by switching the on and off states of the control valves, thereby achieving the effect of controlling the water flow through the required water treatment units. The outlet pipe is used to output the water flow after water treatment to form outlet water. For example, Figure 2 As shown, the control module 400 switches the control valves S1, S8, S7 and S14 to the on state, and switches the remaining control valves to the off state, so that the water flow path can be controlled to flow through the temperature adjustment unit 310, the softening unit 330 and the water purification unit 340 in sequence to form water outlet.

[0036] In some embodiments of the present invention, the temperature regulating unit 310 may include an implementation of a temperature sensor and a heating element. The heating element may specifically be a heating rod, a heating tube or other device. The water temperature is heated by the heating element and detected by the temperature sensor to control the water temperature at the target water temperature. The mineralization regulating unit 320 may be an implementation of a device including a pump and a mineral filter. The pump controls the water flow rate through the mineral filter to adjust the contact time between the water flow and the mineral filter, thereby achieving the purpose of adjusting the mineral content of the water. In some embodiments, the pump may share the same pump with the water inlet module 100. The softening unit 330 may be an implementation of a device including a membrane filter or a reverse osmosis membrane filter. The purification unit may be an implementation of a device including a CDI (capacitive deionization) module or other devices.

[0037] For ease of understanding, a schematic example is given: when the control module 400 determines, based on the water demand information, that the user needs water for bathing, the water is heated by the temperature adjustment unit 310 to meet the water temperature requirement; when the control module 400 determines, based on the water demand information, that the user needs drinking water, the water is treated by the softening unit 330 and the purification unit so that the water can be directly drunk, and based on the water demand, the water can also be treated by the mineralization treatment unit to adjust the mineral content in the drinking water.

[0038] It should be noted that after the control unit determines the required water treatment unit according to the water demand information, it adjusts the water flow path through the water distribution module 300. For the water treatment unit corresponding to the unnecessary water treatment, the water does not need to flow through. For example, when the mineral content of the water does not need to be adjusted, it does not need to flow through the mineralization adjustment unit 320. In addition, according to different water demand, the control unit adjusts the order of flowing through the water treatment units through the water distribution module 300. For example, when the mineral content of the water needs to be adjusted, it usually flows through the softening unit and the purification unit first, and then flows through the mineralization adjustment unit 320.

[0039] In the case of multiple water treatment units, each water treatment unit can be connected to the water inlet module 100 to obtain water, so that when the control module 400 adjusts the water flow path through the water distribution module 300, the water treatment unit that initially flows through can be set according to demand, making the water flow path adjustment more flexible; it can also be that one water treatment unit is fixedly connected to the water inlet module 100, such as the temperature adjustment unit 310 is connected to the water inlet module 100, so that the water treatment unit at the beginning of the water flow path is fixed to the temperature adjustment unit 310, which is convenient for first adjusting the water temperature and then performing other water treatment according to water demand; it can also be an implementation method in which several of the water treatment units are connected to the water inlet module 100 according to the design.

[0040] refer to Figure 3In some embodiments of the water treatment component provided by the present invention, the water purification unit 340 is a capacitive deionization unit, which includes a first electrode 341, a second electrode 342 and a flow channel layer 343. The first electrode 341 and the second electrode 342 clamp the flow channel layer 343. The surface of the first electrode 341 facing the flow channel layer 343 is provided with a first adsorption layer 344, and the surface of the second electrode 342 facing the flow channel layer 343 is provided with a second adsorption layer 345.

[0041] The water purification unit 340 is a CDI (capacitive deionization) unit. The first electrode 341 and the second electrode 342 form a capacitor structure. The control module 400 controls the charging state of the first electrode 341 and the second electrode 342, which can make the first electrode 341 and the second electrode 342 carry charges of different polarities. When the water flows between the first electrode 341 and the second electrode 342, the ions in the water flow are adsorbed on the first electrode 341 or the second electrode 342 under the action of the electric field, thereby reducing the concentration of ions in the water flow and achieving the effect of water purification. The control module 400 controls the first electrode 341 and the second electrode 342 to enter the discharge or reverse charging state, which can desorb the ions adsorbed on the first electrode 341 and the second electrode 342, and make the ions enter the flowing water to form wastewater, thereby restoring the adsorption function of the first electrode 341 and the second electrode 342. In this way, the CDI (capacitive deionization) structure is used for water purification, which can be reused, which is conducive to extending the service life of water purification.

[0042] The flow channel layer 343 is used to support the gap between the first electrode 341 and the second electrode 342 and allow water to flow through. In some embodiments of the present invention, the flow channel layer 343 may be implemented by meltblown cloth or mesh material. The first adsorption layer 344 on the first electrode 341 and the second adsorption layer 345 on the second electrode 342 can help the first electrode 341 and the second electrode 342 to adsorb ions. The first adsorption layer 344 and the second adsorption layer 345 may be formed of materials such as activated carbon.

[0043] In some embodiments of the present invention, the CDI (capacitive deionization) unit may also include an implementation of a charge and discharge drive circuit, the charge and discharge drive circuit is electrically connected to the first electrode 341 and the second electrode 342, the controlled end of the charge and discharge drive circuit is electrically connected to the control module 400, and the control module 400 controls the charge and discharge state of the first electrode 341 and the second electrode 342 through the charge and discharge drive circuit.

[0044] refer to Figure 1 In some embodiments of the water treatment component provided by the present invention, a hot water circulation module 600 is further included, the hot water circulation module 600 is connected to the water distribution module 300, and the control module 400 is electrically connected to the controlled end of the hot water circulation module 600.

[0045] According to the demand for water use, the hot water formed after the temperature regulating unit 310 regulates the water flow is output through the water outlet pipe of the water distribution module 300. However, the user may wait for a period of time before using the water. At this time, the temperature of the hot water remaining in the water outlet pipe will drop, causing the user to use cold water for a period of time before using the required hot water. Therefore, the hot water circulation module 600 is connected to the water distribution module 300, and the control module 400 controls the hot water circulation module 600 to circulate the water output of the water distribution module 300, so that when the user does not use the water, the water output of the water distribution module 300 circulates to the input side, and is again processed by the temperature regulating unit 310 for water temperature regulation to maintain the water temperature, so that when the user uses the water, the required hot water can be quickly obtained, thereby improving the water use experience.

[0046] In some embodiments of the present invention, the hot water circulation module 600 may be an implementation method including a circulation pump and a circulation pipe, wherein the circulation pipe is connected to the water distribution module 300. When the water outlet of the water distribution module 300 is stored in the water outlet pipe without being used, the hot water in the water outlet pipe is driven by the circulation pump and returns to the input side of the water distribution module 300 through the circulation pipe, and then is processed by the temperature adjustment unit 310 to maintain the temperature of the hot water.

[0047] refer to Figure 1 In some embodiments of the water treatment component provided by the present invention, an energy recovery module 700 is also included. The energy recovery module 700 is respectively connected to the water treatment module 200 and the water inlet module 100. The energy recovery module 700 is used to recover the heat of the wastewater generated by the water treatment module 200.

[0048] In the water treatment module 200, when the softening unit, the water purification unit 340, etc. perform water treatment, a certain amount of wastewater will be generated. For example, the softening unit adopts a reverse osmosis membrane structure, and the water purification unit 340 adopts a CDI (capacitive deionization) structure. When the water temperature is adjusted before, the heat in the wastewater can be recovered and used. The heat in the wastewater is recovered through the energy recovery module 700 to heat the incoming water flow, thereby achieving the effect of energy recovery and utilization, which is beneficial to saving energy and improving energy efficiency.

[0049] In some embodiments of the present invention, the energy recovery module 700 may be an implementation including a heat exchanger, wherein the first flow channel of the heat exchanger is connected to the wastewater output end of the softening unit and the water purification unit 340, and the second flow channel of the heat exchanger is connected to the water inlet module 100, and the heat exchanger transfers the heat in the wastewater to the water inlet module 100 and inputs it into the inlet water of the water treatment module 200.

[0050] refer to Figure 1In some embodiments of the water treatment component provided by the present invention, a voice recognition module 800 electrically connected to the control module 400 is further included, and / or a wireless communication module 900 electrically connected to the control module 400 is further included.

[0051] The voice recognition module 800 is electrically connected to the control module 400. The voice recognition module 800 can recognize the user's voice and convert it into corresponding operation instructions to transmit to the control module 400, so that the control module 400 can know the user's water demand information. In this way, the voice recognition module 800 allows the user to perform operation control by voice, which is conducive to making use more convenient.

[0052] By providing a wireless communication module 900, the wireless communication module 900 can obtain wireless signals and convert them into electrical signals for transmission to the control module 400. The wireless signals can be generated by the user through the use of mobile phone applications, etc. The control module 400 obtains the electrical signals from the wireless communication module 900 to determine the corresponding operation instructions, and then obtains the user's water demand information or water treatment setting parameters and other information. At the same time, the control module 400 can also send the water treatment setting parameters and water quality detection information of the water treatment module 200 to the user's mobile phone or other terminals through the wireless communication module 900, so that the user can know the status of the water treatment. In this way, the wireless communication module 900 allows the user to perform wireless control through mobile phones and other terminals or devices, and obtain information such as the status of the water treatment, which is conducive to making the use more convenient.

[0055] The present invention also provides a household water treatment device, comprising a device body, wherein the device body is provided with the above-mentioned water treatment component.

[0056] In the equipment body, the water inlet module 100 transmits the water from the water inlet source to the water treatment module 200. The water treatment module 200 includes at least two water treatment units. Different water treatment units perform different water treatments on the water flowing through. The water distribution module 300 can control the water treatment unit through which the water flows. The water quality detection module 500 detects the water quality of the water inlet module 100 and / or the water distribution module 300, and transmits the water quality detection information obtained by the detection to the control module 400. The control module 400 controls the water treatment module and the water distribution module 300 according to the water quality detection information and the water demand information to adjust the working parameters of the water treatment unit and thus adjust the water treatment effect, and adjust the water distribution module 300 to guide the water to flow through the required water treatment adjustment unit for water treatment and then discharge the water. In this way, the control module 400 determines the required water treatment and parameters based on the water quality and water demand, and then controls the water treatment module 200 and the water distribution module 300, so that the inlet water flows through the required water treatment unit for appropriate water treatment to form the outlet water for supply, which is conducive to meeting the diverse water demand.

[0057] In some embodiments of the present invention, in addition to being integrated into the device body, the water treatment component may be a distributed structure, and different modules may be installed in different locations in the home to provide more flexible installation and layout.

[0058] The water treatment control method provided by the present invention is described below. The water treatment control method described below and the water treatment component described above can be referenced to each other.

[0059] refer to Figure 4 The present invention also provides a water treatment control method, which is applied to the control module 400 in the above-mentioned water treatment component, comprising: S100: Acquire water quality detection information and water demand information, where the water quality detection information includes water inlet detection information and water outlet detection information, and the water demand information is determined by a user input instruction or by prediction processing based on the user's water use record; S200: Determine water treatment parameters according to water inlet detection information and water demand information; S300: adjusting the water treatment module 200 and the water distribution module 300 according to the water treatment parameters.

[0060] The control module 400 obtains water quality detection information through the water quality detection module 500, and the water quality detection information includes water inlet detection information and water outlet detection information to obtain the water quality of the inlet and outlet water. The control module 400 determines the water demand information according to the user input instruction or based on the user's water use record for prediction. According to the water quality detection information and the water demand information, the water treatment parameters are determined to adjust the water treatment module 200, the required water treatment unit in the water treatment module 200 and the working parameters of the water treatment unit are determined, and the water distribution module 300 is adjusted so that the water flow path flows through the required water treatment unit to realize the water treatment process of the inlet water, so that the parameters such as the water quality of the outlet water meet the user's use requirements. In this way, according to different water quality detection information, combined with the water demand information, by adjusting the water treatment module 200 and the water distribution module 300, the inlet water flows through the required water treatment unit for appropriate water treatment to form the outlet water for supply, which is conducive to meeting the diverse water needs.

[0061] In some embodiments of the present invention, the user input instruction may be input through voice recognition, or the user may send the user input instruction using an application program via a terminal device such as a mobile phone.

[0062] In some embodiments of the present invention, water demand information may include water use mode, water use parameters and other information, wherein the water use mode may include drinking water mode, bathing mode, cooking mode, etc., so as to clearly distinguish according to the purpose and quickly switch the water treatment mode; the water use parameters further adjust the water quality, flow rate, temperature, etc. of the water demand in detail based on the water use mode.

[0063] refer to Figure 4 In some embodiments of the water treatment control method provided by the present invention, after adjusting the water treatment module 200 and the water distribution module 300 according to the water treatment parameters, it also includes: S400: Generate adjustment parameters according to water output detection information and water demand information; S500: Adjust the water treatment module 200 according to the adjustment parameters.

[0064] The control module 400 can obtain the user's demand for water based on the water demand information, and can obtain the deviation between the actual water output and the user's water demand in combination with the water output detection information, and generate adjustment parameters accordingly, and then further adjust the water treatment module 200 according to the adjustment parameters, so that the actual water output is more in line with the user's water demand. In this way, based on the water output detection information, the water treatment module 200 is feedback-adjusted to make the actual water output more suitable for the user's water demand, which is conducive to improving the reliability of water treatment.

[0065] refer to Figure 4 In some embodiments of the water treatment control method provided by the present invention, after obtaining the water quality detection information, it also includes: S600: Generate a user water consumption record based on the water output detection information; S700: Generate water use report information and water use suggestion information based on the user's water use record.

[0066] Based on the water output detection information, user water usage records are generated, and then the user water usage and records at different times are summarized and integrated to generate water usage report information so that users can intuitively understand their own water usage situation. At the same time, water usage recommendation information is generated to provide users with water usage suggestions to achieve water saving and other effects, which is conducive to improving the user experience.

[0067] refer to Figure 5 In some embodiments of the water treatment control method provided by the present invention, water demand information is obtained by: S110: inputting water inlet detection information into a decision model to obtain predicted water use information; S120: Listening to input operation information; S130: Determine that the input operation information is detected, and generate the water demand information according to the input operation information; S140: determining that the input operation information is not detected, and using the predicted water use information as the water demand information; The decision model is based on the user's water use habit information, which is determined by the user's water use record, and the parameters of the decision model are adjusted as the user's water use habit information is updated.

[0068] The control module 400 inputs the water inlet detection information into the decision model. The decision model outputs predicted water use information based on the learning of the user's water use habit information, which can reflect the prediction of the user's water demand. When no user inputs operation information, the control module 400 uses the predicted water use information as water demand information, and then adjusts the water treatment module 200 and the water distribution module 300; when the user operation generates input operation information, the user operation is given priority, and the corresponding water demand information is generated according to the input operation information, and then the water treatment module 200 and the water distribution module 300 are adjusted. In the water use process, based on the user water use record generated by the water outlet detection information, new user water use habit information is generated, and then the decision model is adjusted based on the new user water use habit information, so that the predicted water use information output by the decision model can more accurately predict the user's water demand.

[0069] In some embodiments of the present invention, the decision model can be based on an initial model, such as a decision tree model, etc., and a decision model is formed after completing model training using historical water inlet detection information. In the process of using the decision model to output predicted water use information based on actual water inlet detection information, the parameters of the decision model are adjusted according to the continuously updated user water use habit information.
