[0030] With the improvement of productivity, people's demand for quality of life and convenience is also increasing. Mineralized water is widely favored as drinking water. At the same time, there is also a certain demand for mineralized water during production and experiments. Mineralized water can include alkaline mineralized water and acidic mineralized water. Different types of mineralized water have different uses and effects.
[0031] At present, there are two common ways to prepare mineralized water. The first is to artificially mix mineral salts and water into mineralized water of appropriate concentration, but this method is very troublesome, has a certain threshold of chemical knowledge and is inefficient. The second is to put mineralized filter materials into containers filled with water, such as drinking fountains and water purifiers. The minerals in the mineralized filter materials can dissolve into the water in the container, turning the water into mineralized water. However, most mineral salts are difficult to dissolve, and it is difficult to reach a concentration that meets water demand by relying solely on the natural release of mineralized filter materials, which greatly affects the availability of mineralized filter materials.
[0032] In order to improve or solve the above technical problems, the inventors of the present application have proposed at least the following embodiments after long-term research.
[0033] See also Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 5 , Figure 6 , Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the water channel structure of the first embodiment of the water channel system for a mineral water purifier provided in the present application. Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of the water channel structure of the second embodiment of the water channel system for a mineral water purifier provided in this application. Figure 5This is a schematic diagram of the water channel structure of the third embodiment of the water channel system for a mineral water purifier provided in the present application. Figure 6 A schematic diagram of the water circuit structure of the fourth embodiment of the water circuit system for a mineral water purifier provided in the present application. The specific implementation of the present application provides a water circuit system for a mineral water purifier, which can process the input fluid. The water circuit system for a mineral water purifier includes an alkaline filter material 1, an acidic filter material 2, and a mineralized water circuit 32.
[0034] The alkaline filter material 1 and the acidic filter material 2 are successively arranged in the mineralized water channel 32. Alternatively, the acidic filter material 2 and the alkaline filter material 1 are successively arranged in the mineralized water channel 32. At least one of the alkaline filter material 1 and the acidic filter material 2 is a mineralized filter material, which can dissolve minerals into the water body.
[0035] In the structure provided in this specific embodiment, the alkaline filter material 1 and the acidic filter material 2 are simultaneously arranged in the mineralized water channel 32. The acidic filter material 2 can utilize the acidic substances released by the acidic filter material 2 to promote the release of minerals in the alkaline filter material 1, or utilize the alkaline substances released by the alkaline filter material 1 to promote the release of minerals in the acidic filter material 2, and can mix the alkaline water flowing through the alkaline filter material 1 and the acidic water flowing through the acidic filter material 2, so that the alkaline water and the acidic water with different pH values can be used to prepare the mineralized water with moderate pH value and meeting the use requirements for use, which can reduce the probability of the final mineral content of the water output from the water system of the mineral water purifier being too low, and can improve the safety and stability of the water system of the mineral water purifier.
[0036] Exemplarily, the alkaline filter material 1 may include at least one of brucite, periclase, calcite, and dolomite. The acidic filter material 2 may include at least one of diopside, serpentine, and medical stone. In this case, the acidic filter material 2 is a mineralized filter material, and the acidic filter material 2 can dissolve metasilicic acid into the water body under the promotion of the alkaline substance dissolved by the alkaline filter material 1, thereby obtaining metasilicic acid mineralized water with sufficient mineral content.
[0037] Metasilicic acid (H2SiO3) can be generated by the hydrolysis reaction of silicate ores in water. Taking sodium silicate (Na2SiO3) as an example, the reaction formula for the hydrolysis reaction to generate metasilicic acid is as follows:
[0038] Reaction 1:
[0039] Reaction 2:
[0040] Among them, since there is a dynamic balance between orthosilicic acid and orthosilicic acid (H4SiO4), orthosilicic acid has strong acidity and can exist stably in an acidic environment. Therefore, a suitable alkaline environment can cause the balance of reaction 2 to move to the left, that is, reaction 2 is reversed, so that the orthosilicic acid content decreases and the orthosilicic acid content increases. According to this principle, the practical filter material can promote the dissolution of orthosilicic acid in the acidic filter material 2, thereby achieving the effect of reducing the probability of the final mineral content of the water outlet of the water system used for the mineral water purifier being too low, and can improve the safety and stability of the water system used for the mineral water purifier.
[0041] However, at the same time, too high alkalinity will inhibit the forward progress of reaction 1, inhibit the hydrolysis of silicate ions, and thus inhibit the generation of metasilicic acid. The following multiple embodiments are obtained by adjusting the mass ratio of alkaline filter material 1 to metasilicic acid filter material. The pH value of the flowing water, the metasilicic acid concentration of the flowing water, and the metasilicic acid concentration of the soaking water after soaking for 1 hour are tested for each embodiment, and Table 1 is obtained as follows.
[0042] Table 1
[0043]
[0044] Referring to the data in Table 1, it can be seen that in the embodiment where the mass proportion of the alkaline filter material 1 is 0%, the flow water is displayed as weakly acidic water, and the metasilicic acid concentration of the flow water is very low, only 0.2 mg / L. When the mass proportion of the alkaline filter material 1 is increased to 10%, the metasilicic acid concentration of the flow water increases and can reach 1.2 mg / L. When the mass proportion of the alkaline filter material 1 is between 20% and 40%, the metasilicic acid concentration of the flow water reaches more than 2 mg / L. When the mass proportion of the alkaline filter material 1 is 30%, the metasilicic acid concentration of the soaking water can reach up to 10 mg / L. Furthermore, when the mass proportion of the alkaline filter material 1 is 50%, the pH value of the flow water is too high, while the metasilicic acid concentration of the flow water and the metasilicic acid concentration of the soaking water decrease. It can be found that at this time, the effect of alkaline substances in promoting the generation of metasilicic acid begins to decrease.
[0045] Alternatively, if Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, the waterway system may further include a second reflux waterway 35, a second drainage branch 36, a front waterway 37, a reflux valve 42, a water inlet valve 43, a waste water valve 44 and a pump body 7. One end of the second reflux waterway 35 is connected to the waterway, and one end of the second reflux waterway 35 is connected to the input end of the water purification component 6, and the reflux valve 42 is connected to the second reflux waterway 35. The front waterway 37 is connected to the external water source and the input end of the water purification component 6, and the pump body 7 and the water inlet valve 43 are connected to the front waterway 37. The water in the entire waterway system can flow under the drive of the pump body 7. The second drainage branch 36 is connected to the waste water outlet of the water purification component 6, and is used to discharge the waste water generated in the process of filtering and purifying water by the water purification component 6 to the outside, and the waste water valve 44 is connected to the drainage branch.
[0046] In a specific embodiment, an anti-backflow device 8 is connected between the alkaline filter material 1 and the acidic filter material 2, and the anti-backflow device 8 is used to prevent water flowing through the alkaline filter material 1 from flowing back to the acidic filter material 2, or the anti-backflow device 8 is used to prevent water flowing through the acidic filter material 2 from flowing back to the alkaline filter material 1.
[0047] In the structure provided in this specific embodiment, when the mineral water purifier is shut down, the water in the water system may lose power. At this time, the water does not flow in the preset water flow direction under the drive, but flows freely and irregularly in the water system. If there is no backflow prevention device 8, the water in the alkaline filter material 1 and the acidic filter material 2 will flow to each other, causing the alkaline filter material 1 and the acidic filter material 2 to continuously consume each other, and it is easy to make the mineral content or pH value of the water in the water system exceed the standard, which has a great impact on the service life of the water system.
[0048] Therefore, by providing the anti-backflow device 8, the water in the mineralized water channel 32 can be prevented from flowing backwards, thereby avoiding meaningless consumption of the life of the alkaline filter material 1 and the acidic filter material 2, extending the service life of the water channel system, and improving the availability of the water channel system.
[0049] In a specific embodiment, the water system includes a rear-placed water channel 31, a pure water channel 33 and a water outlet 34. The rear-placed water channel 31 connects the pure water channel 33 and the mineralized water channel 32, and the ends of the pure water channel 33 and the mineralized water channel 32 away from the rear-placed water channel 31 are both connected to the water outlet 34.
[0050] In the structure provided in this specific embodiment, the purified water output from the pure water path 33 and the mineralized water output from the mineralized water path 32 can be output through the water outlet path 34 after mixing, so as to further adjust the mineralized water. This can reduce the probability of excessively high mineral content in the final output water of the water system for the mineral water purifier, and can improve the safety and stability of the water system for the mineral water purifier.
[0051] Optionally, the water channel system further includes a first diverter valve 41 , which is connected to the rear-inserted water channel 31 , the pure water channel 33 and the mineralized water channel 32 .
[0052] In the structure provided in this specific embodiment, the first diverter valve 41 can control the amount of water respectively input into the pure water channel 33 and the mineralized water channel 32 through the rear-placed water channel 31, thereby controlling the ratio of mineralized water to pure water when the water flows out from the water outlet 34, thereby further adjusting the mineralized water, which can reduce the probability of excessively high mineral content in the final water output from the water system for the mineral water purifier, and can improve the safety and stability of the water system for the mineral water purifier.
[0053] Optionally, the water channel system further includes a first flow valve and a second flow valve, the first flow valve is connected to the pure water channel 33 , and the second flow valve is connected to the mineralized water channel 32 .
[0054] Through the structure provided in this specific embodiment, the opening and closing of the first flow valve and the second flow valve can be controlled, thereby controlling the flow rate and flow velocity of the mineralized water flowing out through the mineralized water path 32 and the purified water flowing out through the pure water path 33, and further controlling the ratio of the mineralized water and purified water flowing into the water outlet path 34, thereby achieving further adjustment of the mineralized water, and improving the safety and stability of the water system used for the mineral water purifier.
[0055] In a specific embodiment, the device body further includes a first water quality detection component 51 and a controller, and the first water quality detection component 51 and the first diverter valve 41 are both connected to the controller. The first water quality detection component 51 is disposed in the mineralized water channel 32 and is located behind the alkaline filter material 1 and the acidic filter material 2 in the preset water flow direction.
[0056] Optionally, the first water quality detection component 51 is disposed in the water outlet 34 .
[0057] In the structure provided in this specific embodiment, the first water quality detection component 51 is arranged in the water outlet 34 to intuitively characterize the final water quality when the water is discharged. The first water quality detection component 51 is arranged in the mineralized water channel 32 to measure the water quality of the mineralized water. Through the water quality of the mineralized water, the ratio of mineralized water and purified water required to be adjusted to a specified mineral content range can be calculated.
[0058] Therefore, by setting up the first water quality detection component 51, the water quality of the water body in the water system can be effectively monitored, so that the controller can adjust at least one of the valve bodies such as the first diverter valve 41, the first flow valve, and the second flow valve according to the feedback of the water quality, which can improve the accuracy of the water system in regulating the mineral content of the water output, enable the water system to output water that better meets the needs of users, and improve the availability of the water system.
[0059] In a specific embodiment, the device body further includes a first flow detection member 53, which is disposed in at least one of the rear-placed waterway 31, the mineralized waterway 32, and the pure waterway 33, and is connected to the controller. The first flow detection member 53 can monitor the amount of water passing through the mineralized waterway 32 and even the entire waterway system, and thus can monitor the service life of the waterway system. In conjunction with the first water quality detection member 51, the working effect of the waterway system at different use stages can be effectively monitored, thereby improving the availability of the waterway system.
[0060] In a specific embodiment, the first water quality detection component 51 is arranged in the mineralized water channel 32 and is located behind the alkaline filter material 1 and the acidic filter material 2 in the preset water flow direction. The equipment body also includes a second diverter valve, which is connected to the controller, and the second diverter valve is connected to the mineralized water channel 32 and is located behind the first water quality detection component 51 in the preset water flow direction. The equipment body is also provided with a first drainage branch 39 and a wastewater outlet, one end of the first drainage branch 39 is connected to the second diverter valve, and the other end is connected to the wastewater outlet.
[0061] In the structure provided in this specific embodiment, the first drainage branch 39 can be used in conjunction with the second diverter valve to input part of the water in the mineralized water channel 32 that meets the usage requirements into the water outlet 34, and discharge part of the water that does not meet the usage requirements to the outside, thereby reducing the occurrence of excessive water outlet 34, excessive pH value, and too low pH value, and the availability of the water channel system.
[0062] In a specific embodiment, the device body further includes a second water quality detection component 52 and a water purification component 6, and the output end of the water purification component 6 is connected to an end of the rear-inserted waterway 31 away from the first diverter valve 41. The second water quality detection component 52 is disposed in the rear-inserted waterway 31, and the second water quality detection component 52 is connected to the controller.
[0063] The first water quality detection element 51 and the second water quality detection element 52 are at least one of a TDS value detection element and a pH value detection element.
[0064] In the structure provided in this specific embodiment, the second water quality detection component 52 can detect the water quality placed in the water channel 31 after the water purification component 6 is input, and then monitor the water quality before the water body is input into the alkaline water channel, and realize the prediction and calculation of the mineral content of the water outlet from the water outlet 34, which can improve the availability of the water channel system.
[0065] Among them, the pH sensor is used to detect the hydrogen ion concentration in the object being measured and can convert it into a corresponding usable output signal, thereby characterizing the pH value of the water body. Since both the acidic filter element and the alkaline filter element have an impact on the pH value of the water body, the mineral content in the water body can be estimated based on the pH value. The TDS sensor is a device used to measure the total dissolved solids (TDS) in water. It can continuously monitor the conductivity value of the object being measured. The mineral content in the object being measured can be calculated based on the conductivity value, thereby characterizing the mineral content of the water body.
[0066] In a specific embodiment, the device body is further provided with a first return waterway 38, which is connected to the water purification assembly 6.

The fourth diverter valve is also connected to the end of the first return waterway 38 away from the water purification component 6.
[0068] In the structure provided in this specific embodiment, the first return waterway 38 can be used to return the water in the pure waterway 33 to the water purification component 6, thereby reducing the probability of excessive purified water leading to low mineral content in the water outlet, and avoiding waste of purified water. At the same time, the first return waterway 38 can also transport the purified water that does not meet the use standards back to the water purification component 6 for re-filtration, so as to reduce the probability of unqualified water quality in the water outlet 34.
[0069] In a specific embodiment provided by the present application, the device body may further include a communication component, which is connected to the controller. The communication component may be used to receive a water quality control message, and the controller may control the water system according to the water quality control message, and then output water that meets the water quality control message through the water outlet 34.

[0071] In the structure provided in this specific embodiment, the alkaline filter material 1 and the acidic filter material 2 are simultaneously arranged in the mineralized water channel 32. The acidic filter material 2 can utilize the acidic substances released by the acidic filter material 2 to promote the release of minerals in the alkaline filter material 1, or utilize the alkaline substances released by the alkaline filter material 1 to promote the release of minerals in the acidic filter material 2, and can mix the alkaline water flowing through the alkaline filter material 1 and the acidic water flowing through the acidic filter material 2, so that the alkaline water and the acidic water with different pH values can be used to prepare the mineralized water with moderate pH value and meeting the use requirements for use, which can reduce the probability of the final mineral content of the water output from the water system of the mineral water purifier being too low, and can improve the safety and stability of the water system of the mineral water purifier.

[0075] The executor of the control method of the mineral water purifier provided in the present application can be a controller of the water system of the mineral water purifier. The controller is connected to the first diverter valve 41 and can receive water quality control messages, so as to control the water quality of the water body outputted from the water outlet 34 by adjusting the flow ratio of the input mineralized water channel 32 and the pure water channel 33.
[0076] The water quality control message can be generated locally in the mineral water purifier device, for example, the user inputs instructions to the mineral water purifier to generate the corresponding water quality control message by operating the mineral water purifier. It can also be generated on the client side, where the client side is connected to the mineral water purifier through a communication component, and the communication component receives the water quality control message generated and sent by the client side, and transmits the water quality control message to the controller.
[0077] See also Figure 4 , Figure 4 FIG. 1 is a flow chart of another embodiment of a control method for a mineral water purifier. It should be noted that if there is substantially the same result, this embodiment is not limited to the above. Figure 4 The process sequence shown is limited. Figure 4 As shown, the control method of the mineral water purifier may also include:
[0078] S300: Obtain a total flow parameter from the first flow detection component 53, and determine whether the total flow parameter is greater than or equal to a first threshold.
[0079] S400 : In response to the total flow parameter being greater than or equal to the first threshold, the first diverter valve 41 is controlled to adjust the flow input to the pure water path 33 to zero, the flow input to the mineralized water path 32 to the maximum, and the water quality parameter is obtained from the first water quality detection component 51 .
[0080] S500: Determine whether the water quality parameter is less than a second threshold.
[0081] S600: In response to the water quality parameter being less than the second threshold, a filter element replacement message is generated and sent using a communication component.
[0082] Through the method provided in this specific embodiment, the service life of the water system can be monitored using the total flow parameter measured by the first flow detection element 53. When the total flow parameter is greater than or equal to the first threshold, the water system is promptly adjusted to only discharge water from the mineralized water channel 32, and then the alkaline filter element and the acid filter element can be judged by the water quality parameters to determine whether they can still work normally to prepare mineralized water, and when the alkaline filter element and the acid filter element cannot work normally, the filter element replacement message is used to notify the user to replace them, which greatly improves the availability of the mineral water purifier.
