Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the field of faucets, and in particular to a main body structure of an intelligent shower faucet. Background Art
[0002] The functions of common smart shower faucets are mainly reflected in temperature control, water volume regulation, application connection and self-cleaning functions, but lack the function of regulating the water flow rate. When the water pressure is constant, the flow rate of the water flow will also be constant and cannot be changed. The purpose of the present invention is to provide a smart shower faucet with a water flow rate regulation function to solve the above technical problems. Summary of the invention
[0003] The purpose of the present invention is to provide an intelligent shower faucet main structure to solve the problems mentioned in the background technology.
[0004] To achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the present invention provides the following technical scheme: comprising a shell, a hydroelectric generator, a deformation tube, an iron core, a lithium battery and a water outlet pipe, a connecting pipe is formed on the front of the shell, a control panel is installed on the front of the shell, the hydroelectric generator is located in the shell, a cold water pipe and a hot water pipe are respectively formed on the rear end of the shell, the front ends of the cold water pipe and the hot water pipe are connected to the hydroelectric generator through a valve core, an electromagnet is arranged on the outside of the deformation tube, each electromagnet is distributed along the side of the deformation tube and surrounds the deformation tube, the iron core is located in the deformation tube and connected to the rotor of the hydroelectric generator, the iron core can attract each other with the electromagnet after power is turned on, the lithium battery is located in the shell and is electrically connected to the hydroelectric generator and the control panel, the lithium battery is connected to the electromagnet through a PWM current control module, and the two ends of the water outlet pipe are respectively connected to the connecting pipe and the deformation tube.
[0005] In order to optimize the above technical solution, further measures are taken: the length direction of the electromagnet is parallel to the length direction of the deformation tube, ensuring that after the electromagnet is energized, the electromagnet and the iron core attract each other and can evenly squeeze the deformation tube from the side to ensure that the deformation tube is evenly stressed.
[0006] As a further improvement to the above technical solution: a deformation groove with a V-shaped longitudinal section is formed on the inner surface of the deformation tube, and the deformation groove is distributed along the length direction of the deformation tube. The V-shaped deformation groove helps to improve the deformation feedback of the deformation tube when it is squeezed by the electromagnet.
[0007] As a further improvement of the technical solution: it also includes a water flow rate sensor, which is embedded and installed on the water outlet pipe. The water flow rate sensor is connected to the control panel. The water flow rate sensor is used to measure the flow rate information and display the flow rate information on the control panel.
[0008] As an improvement to the above technical solution: the deformation tube is made of elastic material, which has good bending and deformation ability and can produce elastic deformation, thereby avoiding brittle fracture of the deformation tube after long-term use.
[0009] Furthermore: the hydroelectric generator and the water outlet pipe are located in the shell and fixedly connected to the shell, and the position of the hydroelectric generator and the water outlet pipe is restricted to prevent the deformation pipe from moving in the shell.
[0010] From the above description of the structure of the present invention, it can be seen that compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages:
[0011] The present invention provides an intelligent shower faucet main body structure, which regularly changes the current of the electromagnet through a PWM current control module, thereby changing the attraction between the electromagnet and the iron core, so that the cross-sectional area of the deformable tube caused by the squeezing of the electromagnet for water flow changes regularly, and the water flow rate of the shower head changes regularly, which can stimulate the user's skin to provide a massage effect.

Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0018] Example
[0019] See also Figure 1-3The present invention provides a main structure of an intelligent shower faucet, including a shell 1, a hydroelectric generator 2, a deformation tube 3, an iron core 4, a lithium battery 5, a water outlet pipe 6 and a water flow rate sensor 7. A connecting pipe 101 is formed on the front of the shell 1, and the connecting pipe 101 can be connected to the bellows of the shower. A control panel 102 composed of a single-chip microcomputer as a main component is installed on the front of the shell 1. The connection structure and control principle of the single-chip microcomputer belong to the existing technical content, so no further explanation is given.
[0020] The hydroelectric generator 2 is located in the shell 1, and a cold water pipe 201 and a hot water pipe 202 are formed at the rear end of the shell 1 respectively. The front ends of the cold water pipe 201 and the hot water pipe 202 are connected to the hydroelectric generator 2 through a valve core 203, and the valve core 203 is connected to the handle outside the shell 1. The hydroelectric generator 2 refers to a device that can convert water into electrical energy, and the M26 micro-tube hydroelectric power generation device is preferably used.
[0021] An electromagnet 301 is arranged outside the deformation tube 3. Each electromagnet 301 is distributed along the side of the deformation tube 3 and surrounds the deformation tube 3. The length direction of the electromagnet 301 is parallel to the length direction of the deformation tube 3. The deformation tube 3 is made of elastic material, preferably transparent PP and PE material, which is convenient for intuitive observation of the state of the iron core 4 and easy for maintenance. A deformation groove 302 with a V-shaped longitudinal section is formed on the inner surface of the deformation tube 3, and the deformation groove 302 is distributed along the length direction of the deformation tube 3.
[0022] The iron core 4 is located in the deformation tube 3 and connected to the rotor of the hydroelectric generator 2. The iron core 4 can attract the electromagnet 301 after power is supplied. In a specific implementation, a Teflon coating can be provided on the surface of the iron core 4 to increase the service life of the iron core 4 and prevent rust.
[0023] The lithium battery 5 is located in the housing 1 and is electrically connected to the hydroelectric generator 2 and the control panel 102. The lithium battery 5 is connected to the electromagnet 301 through a PWM current control module 501. The PWM current control module 501 refers to a device in the prior art that adjusts the current size through pulse width modulation.
[0024] The two ends of the water outlet pipe 6 are respectively connected to the connecting pipe 101 and the deformable pipe 3 . The hydroelectric generator 2 and the water outlet pipe 6 are located inside the shell 1 and are fixedly connected to the shell 1 .
[0025] The water flow rate sensor 7 is embedded and installed on the water outlet pipe 6 to detect the water flow rate in the water outlet pipe 6. The water flow rate sensor 7 is connected to the control panel 102. The water flow rate sensor 7 can transmit the detected water flow rate information to the control panel 102.
[0026] Working principle: The cold water pipe 201 and the hot water pipe 202 are connected to the pipes providing cold water and hot water respectively. The user can control the valve core 203 to change the size of the mixed water flow. The mixed water flows through the hydroelectric generator 2, the deformation pipe 3, the water outlet pipe 6 and finally flows out from the connecting pipe 101 to supply water for the shower.
[0027] During the water discharge process, the water flow can drive the hydroelectric generator 2 to generate current, and the current can be stored in the lithium battery 5 to power various components that require current supply. The mutual attraction between the electromagnet 301 and the iron core 4 can realize that the electromagnet 301 squeezes the deformed tube 3 so that the cross-sectional area of the deformed tube 3 through which water can flow is reduced. When the water pressure is constant, the cross-sectional area of the water flow is reduced and the flow rate of the water flow will increase, thereby changing the flow rate of the shower. When the attraction between the electromagnet 301 and the iron core 4 decreases, the cross-sectional area of the deformed tube 3 through which water can flow will increase under the action of the water flow, and the water flow rate is restored at this time.
[0028] When water is flowing, the control panel 102 controls the current supplied to the electromagnet 301 through the PWM current control module 501 to change regularly, so that the attraction between the electromagnet 301 and the iron core 4 changes regularly, and the cross-sectional area of the deformable tube 3 for water flow changes regularly, so that the flow rate of the shower changes regularly, which can stimulate the skin to achieve a massage effect.
[0029] Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the aforementioned embodiments, it is still possible for those skilled in the art to modify the technical solutions described in the aforementioned embodiments, or to make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features therein. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
