DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0033] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of this application clearer, the technical solutions in this application will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in this application. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of this application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in this application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0034] The terms "first", "second", "third", "fourth", etc. (if any) in the specification and claims of this application and the above-mentioned drawings are used to distinguish similar objects, and are not necessarily used to describe a specific order or sequence. It should be understood that the numbers used in this way can be interchanged where appropriate, so that the embodiments of the application described herein can be implemented in an order other than those illustrated or described herein, for example.

[0035] In the embodiments of the present application, the words "exemplary" or "for example" are used to indicate examples, illustrations or descriptions. Any embodiment or design described as "exemplary" or "for example" in the present application should not be interpreted as being more optional or more advantageous than other embodiments or designs. Specifically, the use of words such as "exemplary" or "for example" is intended to present related concepts in a concrete way.

[0036] As mentioned above, the main structure of the storage type electric water heater includes: inner tank, heating tube, thermostat, water level controller, safety valve, etc. Among them, the inner tank is the core component of the storage type electric water heater, which is a closed container for storing hot water.

[0037] The end cap of the inner tank is equipped with a flange, which is used to connect the inner tank and the water storage type electric water heater shell for installation and maintenance. However, in the current technical level, the inner tank has at least the following two technical problems.

[0038] Technical problem 1: The flange on the inner tank head is fixed to the inner tank by bolting. The bolts penetrate the inner tank head. During the long-term use of the storage electric water heater, the inner tank will expand and contract periodically. Over time, the inner tank is prone to leakage at the bolt joints.

[0039] Technical problem 2: Currently, there are plastic liners, most of which are produced by blow molding. However, the wall thickness of the plastic liners produced by blow molding is uneven. During daily use, the bottom and side walls of the plastic liners are prone to water seepage, posing a safety risk.

[0040] Therefore, in order to improve or solve the above technical problems, the embodiments of the present application provide a method for manufacturing a crystal bladder and a crystal bladder. In the technical solution provided by the embodiments of the present application, first, the flange is directly embedded in the head of the upper bladder, and the head of the upper bladder covers the flange. Instead of using the traditional connection method of bolts passing through the head, the connection between the flange and the head is particularly stable and has good sealing performance. The inner bladder will not leak easily at the bolt joint due to the periodic thermal expansion and contraction of the inner bladder. Second, the upper bladder and the lower bladder are both manufactured and welded using the injection molding process, and the wall thickness is more uniform. In daily use, the bottom and side walls of the inner bladder are not easy to seep water; the flange and the upper bladder are connected using the injection molding process, and the connection is more stable and firm, and the water sealing performance is better.

[0041] Reference below Figure 1-Figure 6 The manufacturing method of the crystal gall and the crystal gall provided in the embodiments of the present application are described in detail.

[0042] Figure 6 This is a flow chart of the method for manufacturing a crystal gallbladder provided in the embodiment of the present application. Please refer to Figure 6 The present invention provides a method for manufacturing a crystal gallbladder, comprising the following steps:

[0043] S101: Injection molding the lower liner 100 and the upper liner 200; wherein, one end of the lower liner 100 is opened to form a lower liner welding end 110, and both ends of the upper liner 200 are opened to form an upper liner welding end 210 and an upper liner sealing end 220.

[0044] Injection molding the lower liner 100 and the upper liner 200 includes: adding materials into the material bin of the injection molding machine, using one or more injection molding machines to respectively mold the lower liner 100 and the upper liner 200, and temporarily storing the surplus lower liner 100 and the upper liner 200. The reason why the lower liner 100 and the upper liner 200 are separately molded instead of directly molding the crystal liner as a whole is that if the crystal liner as a whole is directly molded, due to the higher difficulty of injection molding, it may cause uneven wall thickness of the crystal liner, which is easy to crack and leak in later use. After separately molding the lower liner 100 and the upper liner 200 and then welding, the difficulty of injection molding can be reduced, and the wall thickness of the crystal liner can be further ensured to be uniform, so as to avoid cracking and leaking of the crystal liner in later use.

[0045] Please refer to Figure 3 and Figure 4 , illustratively, one end of the lower gallbladder 100 is opened to form a lower gallbladder welding end 110, and both ends of the upper gallbladder 200 are opened to form an upper gallbladder welding end 210 and an upper gallbladder sealing end 220. The lower gallbladder 100 and the upper gallbladder 200 both have a plurality of overflow grooves 700, which are respectively located on the inner side of the lower gallbladder welding end 110, the outer side of the lower gallbladder welding end 110, the inner side of the upper gallbladder welding end 210, and the outer side of the upper gallbladder welding end 210, and the overflow grooves 700 on the lower gallbladder welding end 110 correspond to the overflow grooves 700 on the upper gallbladder welding end 210.

[0046] Please refer to Figure 3 and Figure 4 Exemplarily, the outer wall of the lower gallbladder 100 has a smoothly extended inclined surface, which intersects with the lower gallbladder welding end 110; the outer wall of the upper gallbladder 200 has a smoothly extended inclined surface, which intersects with the upper gallbladder welding end 210; the smoothly extended inclined surface of the lower gallbladder 100 intersects with the smoothly extended inclined surface of the upper gallbladder 200.

[0047] For example, the lower liner 100 and the upper liner 200 are molded by a center-injection method, wherein the injection gate is located at the center of the injection mold, the injection gate is in a sheet shape, and the gate is cut off after the injection molding is completed. The center-injection method can ensure that the lower liner 100 and the upper liner 200 are filled evenly during injection molding.

[0048] S102: Casting flange 300.

[0049] The flange 300 is cast by a casting machine, and the raw material of the cast flange 300 can be an aluminum alloy material or BTC330R steel.

[0050] Please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 5 Exemplarily, the flange 300 includes: an annular shell, wherein the shell has an inner cavity and an opening communicating with the inner cavity.

[0051] Please refer to Figure 2 For example, a plurality of reinforcing rib groups are integrally formed in the inner cavity, and each reinforcing rib group is evenly spaced around the circumference of the shell, and each reinforcing rib group has at least two reinforcing ribs 600 arranged at intervals. The reinforcing ribs 600 can strengthen the overall structural strength of the flange 300, and when the flange 300 is connected to the upper bladder 200 by injection molding and the crystal bladder is used in daily life, sufficient strength of the injection molding connection and stability of the crystal bladder in daily use can be ensured.

[0052] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 Exemplarily, the shell has an inner extension edge 310, which is a first flange extending toward the inner circle of the shell. When the flange 300 is subsequently connected to the head 400 by injection molding, the inner extension edge 310 increases the contact area between the flange 300 and the head 400, thereby enhancing the firmness of the connection between the flange 300 and the head 400.

[0053] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 Exemplarily, the shell has a reinforcing edge 320, which is hooked and connected with the inner extension edge 310, and the reinforcing edge 320 extends to the outer peripheral side of the shell through the opening of the shell, and the ends of each reinforcing rib 600 facing the shell opening are all in contact with the reinforcing edge 320, and there is a gap between the reinforcing edge 320 and the inner circle of the shell. When the flange 300 and the head 400 are subsequently injection-molded, the reinforcing edge 320 increases the contact area between the flange 300 and the head 400, thereby strengthening the firmness of the connection between the flange 300 and the head 400.

[0054] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 Exemplarily, the shell has an outer extension edge 330, which is a second flange extending toward the outer ring of the shell. The outer extension edge 330 is located on the outer peripheral side of the shell. During injection molding, the mold can clamp the flange 300 through the outer extension edge 330, which is conducive to further stable positioning of the flange 300, further ensuring the connection stability between the flange 300 and the upper tank 200 after injection molding, and further improving the yield rate of injection molded crystal tanks.

[0055] Please refer to Figure 5 Exemplarily, the shell has a plurality of side positioning holes 350, which are located on the outer ring of the shell and are evenly spaced around the circumference of the shell. Each side positioning hole 350 is connected to the inner cavity. The side positioning holes 350 are used to position the flange 300 when the flange 300 is connected to the upper liner 200 by injection molding. When the flange 300 is connected to the upper liner 200 by injection molding, the mold can further position the circumference of the flange 300 through each side positioning hole 350, thereby improving the positioning accuracy of the flange 300.

[0056] Please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 5 Exemplarily, the shell has a plurality of main top holes 340, which are located on the end surface of the shell away from the outlet, and a main top hole 340 is arranged between two adjacent reinforcing rib groups, and each main top hole 340 is staggered with each side positioning hole 350. The main top hole 340 is used to install pre-connected bolts 800, and the pre-connected bolts 800 are used to connect the shell and the electric water heater shell. The main top hole 340 is also used for the mold insert to pass through the main top hole 340 and press on the flange 300, so as to increase the strength of the injection molding flange 300, and to avoid irregular deformation of the crystal gall during cooling and solidification.

[0057] S103: Clamp the flange 300 and the upper liner 200 on two opposite stations with a spacing therebetween of the injection molding machine, and injection-mold the flange 300 on the upper liner 200 to form a head 400 between the flange 300 and the upper liner head end 220; wherein the head 400 wraps at least a portion of the flange 300.

[0058] Please refer to Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 5 Exemplarily, the shell is located in the accommodating cavity of the head 400, and only the outer extension edge 330 is located outside the head 400. The inner extension edge 310 and the reinforcement edge 320 are both located in the accommodating cavity of the head 400. A part of the head 400 is filled in the gap between the reinforcement edge 320 and the inner circle of the shell. The head 400 has multiple avoidance openings corresponding to each main top hole 340.

[0059] The flange 300 is injection molded on the upper gallbladder head end 220 by using a center-injection injection molding method, wherein the injection gate is located at the center of the injection mold, and the injection gate is in a sheet shape, and the gate is cut off after the injection molding is completed. The center-injection injection molding method can ensure that the flange 300 is injection molded on the upper gallbladder head end 220 during injection molding.

[0060] The flange 300 is directly embedded in the head 400 of the upper liner 200. The head 400 of the upper liner 200 covers the flange 300. Instead of adopting the traditional connection method of bolts passing through the head 400, the connection between the flange 300 and the head 400 is particularly stable and has good sealing performance. The inner liner will not leak easily at the bolt joint due to the periodic thermal expansion and contraction of the inner liner.

[0061] S104: welding the upper chamber welding end 210 and the lower chamber welding end 110 to connect the upper chamber 200 and the lower chamber 100 to form an injection-molded crystal chamber.

[0062] Exemplarily, the upper gallbladder welding end 210 and the lower gallbladder welding end 110 are welded by a welding process of vibration friction welding or infrared welding. After the welding is completed, the outer overflow of the outer wall of the injection-molded crystal gallbladder is removed by turning. The advantages of vibration friction welding include: fast and flexible, the welding process is stable and repeatable, the welding quality is excellent, it does not have to rely on skilled welders, the preparation work can be reduced to a minimum, no flux is required, it is beneficial to the environment, and no welding fumes are generated. The advantages of infrared welding include: fast, efficient, energy-saving, environmentally friendly and many other advantages. Compared with traditional welding methods, infrared welding can greatly reduce heat transfer losses and material consumption, thereby improving production efficiency and reducing production costs. In addition, infrared welding does not produce harmful substances such as waste gas and waste slag, and is environmentally friendly.

[0063] When the upper liner 200 and the lower liner 100 are welded, the excess solder will enter the overflow groove 700, reducing the adverse effects of excessive solder overflow on the inner and outer joint surfaces of the upper liner 200 and the lower liner 100. The outer welding seams of the upper liner 200 and the lower liner 100 are set as inclined surfaces extending smoothly toward the two ends of the injection-molded crystal liner, avoiding the traditional process of cutting off the stepped outer welding seams of the upper liner 200 and the lower liner 100, which not only improves the production efficiency, but also strengthens the welding firmness of the upper liner 200 and the lower liner 100.

[0064] The upper liner 200 and the lower liner 100 are both manufactured and welded by injection molding, and the wall thickness is more uniform. During daily use, the bottom and side walls of the inner liner are not easy to seep water.

[0065] S105: Arrange an outer fiber layer 500 on the outer wall of the injection-molded crystal bladder.

[0066] Please refer to Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 The outer fiber layer 500 tightly wraps the injection molded crystal bladder. Specifically, the outer fiber layer 500 can be wrapped around the injection molded crystal bladder in a circle, that is, the outer fiber layer 500 itself includes a multi-layer structure. The outer fiber layer 500 covers the connection between the flange 300 and the upper bladder 200. The outer fiber layer 500 wraps and constrains the upper bladder 200 and the flange 300, further strengthening the connection firmness and sealing of the flange 300 and the upper bladder 200. The outer fiber layer 500 also strengthens the overall structural strength and sealing of the injection molded crystal bladder.
