Because water purifiers are generally installed close to water sources, the environment around them is often quite humid, which can affect the lifespan of internal circuit components and create a humid environment conducive to the growth of bacteria.

Detailed Implementation

[0062] The technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0063] With increasing public awareness of drinking water safety, large commercial water purifiers are being installed in public places such as airports, high-speed rail stations, and companies. While this brings convenience, it also presents some problems. Due to the nature of water purifiers, their installation environment is generally very close to water sources, resulting in high humidity. Prolonged exposure to high humidity causes condensation to form on the outside of the internal pipes. Especially on rainy days or during humid weather, the internal humidity of the water purifier can exceed 95%. In such high humidity conditions, not only will bacteria proliferate in the internal pipes, but the lifespan of certain electrical components (main control board, display board, internal electrical loads) will also be reduced. Internal metal parts may rust, and dangerous situations such as leakage, sparking, and short circuit damage may occur.

[0064] High humidity inside a water purifier over a long period can lead to unpleasant odors, especially in enclosed or poorly ventilated environments. High humidity creates favorable conditions for the growth and reproduction of bacteria, mold, and other microorganisms. These microorganisms produce various odors during their growth and attract small animals such as cockroaches and rats to the water purifier. Users prefer odorless or even pleasantly scented water purifiers, and bacterial growth can easily contaminate the purified water.

[0065] like Figure 1 As shown in the figure, this application discloses a dehumidification device for a water purifier. The water purifier includes a casing 1, and the dehumidification device includes a heating device 2 and a heat dissipation device 3, which are connected together.

[0066] The heating device 2 is located near the top of the casing 1;

[0067] The heat dissipation device 3 is located away from the top of the casing 1;

[0071] Optionally, such as Figure 1 As shown, the bottom of the heating device 2 is connected to the heat dissipation device 3 through the hot water valve 9.

[0072] Optionally, such as Figure 1 As shown, the heat sink 5 is provided on the outside of the heat sink 6, and the fan 4 is provided on the outside of the heat sink 5.

[0074] Optionally, such as Figure 2 As shown, the fan 4 includes a first fan 10 and a second fan 11, the heat sink 5 includes a first heat sink 12 and a second heat sink 13, and the heat sink box 6 includes a first outer side 14 and a second outer side 15.

[0075] The first outer side 14 and the second outer side 15 are two sides symmetrically arranged on the outer surface of the box body;

[0076] The first heat sink 12 is fixedly connected to the first outer side 14, and the second heat sink 13 is fixedly connected to the second outer side 15;

[0077] The first fan 10 is fixedly connected to the end of the first heat sink 12 away from the first outer side 14, and the second fan 11 is fixedly connected to the end of the second heat sink 12 away from the second outer side 15.

[0078] Optionally, there may be multiple fans 4, which are respectively located on the outside of the heat dissipation box 6.

[0079] Optionally, such as Figure 2 As shown, there are two fans 4, namely the first fan 10 and the second fan 11.

[0080] Optionally, such as Figure 2 As shown, the first fan 10 is located on the side of the first radiator 12 away from the heat sink 6, and the second fan 11 is located on the side of the second radiator 12 away from the heat sink 6.

[0081] Optionally, such as Figure 2As shown, the first radiator 12 and the second radiator 13 are used to dissipate heat from the hot water inside the heat sink 6, the first fan 10 is used to dissipate the heat output by the first radiator 12, and the second fan 11 is used to dissipate the heat output by the first radiator 13.

[0082] In this implementation, heat is dissipated as hot air by combining a radiator and a fan, maximizing the use of the heat energy of the water tank. The hot air is blown into the machine for drying, preventing the growth of bacteria and achieving the purpose of dehumidification and sterilization, while also being energy-saving and environmentally friendly.

[0083] Optionally, such as Figure 3 As shown, the hot water valve 9 includes a valve 32, an output channel 33, and an input channel 34; the baffle plate 7 includes a first baffle plate 35 and a second baffle plate 36; the bottom of the heating water tank 8 is provided with an output port 37; and the top of the heat dissipation box 6 is provided with an input port 38.

[0084] The output channel 33 and the input channel 34 are connected through the valve 32;

[0085] The output channel 33 is connected to the output port 37, and the input channel 34 is connected to the input port 38;

[0086] One end of the first baffle plate 35 is fixedly connected to the top surface of the inner surface of the box, and one end of the second baffle plate 36 is fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the inner surface of the box. A guide channel 39 is formed between the inner surface of the box, the first baffle plate, and the second baffle plate.

[0087] The bottom of the box is provided with a wastewater discharge port 40, and the flow channel 39 is fixedly connected to and communicates with the wastewater discharge port 40.

[0088] Optionally, such as Figure 3 As shown, the bottom of the heating water tank 8 is provided with an output port 37, and the top of the heat dissipation box 6 is provided with an input port 38. The output port 37 and the input port 38 are connected through the hot water valve 9.

[0089] Optionally, such as Figure 3 As shown, the hot water valve 9 includes a valve 32, an output channel 33, and an input channel 34. The output channel 33 is connected to the output port 37, and the input channel 34 is connected to the input port 38.

[0090] Optionally, such as Figure 3As shown, the heating water tank 8 is used to store water. After the heating device 2 heats the water inside the heating water tank 8, the valve 32 can be opened to allow the heated hot water to flow into the heat dissipation tank 6 through the hot water valve 9. Specifically, the hot water can flow directly into the heat dissipation tank 6 under the influence of gravity without the need for any other assistance.

[0091] Optionally, such as Figure 3 As shown, one end of the first water baffle 35 is fixedly connected to the top surface of the inner surface of the box, and the other end of the first water baffle 35 is suspended inside the box.

[0092] Optionally, such as Figure 3 As shown, one end of the second water baffle 36 is fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the inner surface of the box, and the other end of the second water baffle 36 is suspended inside the box.

Specifically, the top and bottom surfaces of the inner surface of the box are parallel, the first baffle plate 35 is perpendicular to the top surface of the inner surface of the box, and the second baffle plate 36 is perpendicular to the bottom surface of the inner surface of the box.

[0094] Optionally, such as Figure 3 As shown, a flow channel 39 is formed between the inner surface of the box, the first baffle plate, and the second baffle plate. Since the heat dissipation box 6 is a closed structure, when hot water enters the flow channel 39, it can squeeze out the room temperature water that has cooled down in the heat dissipation box 6, and finally discharge it through the wastewater discharge port 40.

[0095] Optionally, such as Figure 3 As shown, the wastewater discharge outlet 40 is connected to the sewer and is used to discharge water from the heat dissipation box 6.

[0096] In this implementation, the flow of hot water is controlled by a hot water valve, and the baffle plate forms a water flow channel, turning the heat exchanger into a compression type. When hot water enters, it can completely squeeze out the low-temperature water in the heat exchanger. The cooled room-temperature water is then discharged through the wastewater outlet. The structure is simple, reduces costs, and improves drainage efficiency.

[0097] Optionally, such as Figure 4 As shown, the dehumidification device also includes an aromatherapy dispensing device, the first fan 10 includes a first air outlet 16, and the second fan 11 includes a second air outlet 17.

[0106] Optionally, such as Figure 4 As shown, the first dispensing device 18 and the second dispensing device 19 are used for dispensing and storing aromatherapy, respectively. Specifically, after aromatherapy is dispensed into the first dispensing device 18 or the second dispensing device 19, the aromatherapy scent is dispersed into the internal space of the water purifier by hot air under the action of the fan 4, thereby enhancing the deodorizing effect.

[0107] In this implementation, the fragrance and high-temperature air are blown into the entire interior space of the water purifier by the airflow of the cooling fan, thereby achieving the functions of dehumidification, sterilization, and deodorization.

[0116] In this implementation, the upper part of the aroma storage device is connected to the dispensing pipe. The aroma inlet at the top of the dispensing pipe is a conical opening, through which the aroma is dispensed. Under the action of the cooling fan, the fragrance is dispersed throughout the entire internal space of the water purifier, achieving the purpose of deodorization.

[0117] Optionally, such as Figure 6 As shown, the first delivery pipe 21 includes a first inlet 26 and a first outlet 27, and the second delivery pipe 23 includes a second inlet 28 and a second outlet 29.

[0120] The first outlet 27 is connected to the top of the first aroma storage device 20, and the second outlet 29 is connected to the top of the second aroma storage device 22.

[0121] Optionally, such as Figure 6 As shown, the first inlet 26 and the second inlet 28 are both conical openings, which facilitate the dispensing of aromatherapy products.

[0122] Optionally, such as Figure 6 As shown, the first inlet 26 is sized to match the first inlet baffle 30, and the second inlet 28 is sized to match the second inlet baffle 31. The first inlet baffle 30 is used to shield and protect the first inlet 26, and the second inlet baffle 31 is used to shield and protect the second inlet 28 to prevent impurities from entering.

[0123] In this implementation, an inlet baffle is located above the conical opening of the dispensing pipe, which serves to shield and protect the machine, preventing impurities from entering and improving the safety of the water purifier's operation.

[0124] Optionally, such as Figure 7 As shown, the heating device 2 includes a heating unit 41, a water level detection device 42, and a first temperature detection device 43.

[0129] The second temperature detection device 44 is located near the first baffle plate 35 at the top of the heat dissipation box 6.

[0130] Optionally, such as Figure 7 As shown, the heating unit 41 is a heating plate, and the heating unit 41 is used to heat the water in the heating water tank 8.

[0131] Optionally, such as Figure 7 As shown, the first temperature detection device 43 is a temperature sensor used to monitor the water temperature in the heating water tank 8. When the second temperature detection device 43 detects that the water temperature in the heating water tank 8 is higher than the first preset water temperature, the hot water valve 9 is opened to allow hot water to flow into the heat exchange tank.

[0132] Optionally, such as Figure 7 As shown, the water level detection device 42 is a high and low water level probe, used to determine whether the water level in the heating water tank 8 has reached a preset safe water level. Specifically, the high and low water level probe includes a first probe and a second probe. The first probe represents a first preset water level, and the second probe represents a second preset water level. If the first preset water level is lower than the second preset water level, and the detection result of the water level detection device 42 indicates that the current water level has reached the first preset water level, then the hot water valve 9 is closed to prevent the heating device 2 from dry burning.

[0133] Optionally, such as Figure 7 As shown, the second temperature detection device 44 is a temperature sensor used to monitor the water temperature in the heat sink 6. When the second temperature detection device 44 detects that the water temperature in the heat sink 6 is lower than a second preset water temperature, it stops cooling the heat sink 6 and discharges the water in the heat sink 6 through the wastewater discharge port 40.

[0134] In this implementation, the water temperature in the heating water tank is monitored by a first temperature detection device, and the temperature in the heat dissipation box is monitored by a second temperature detection device. The dehumidification device is controlled to work based on the monitoring results, thereby improving the safety of the dehumidification, sterilization and deodorization process, avoiding energy waste and improving efficiency.

[0135] like Figure 8 As shown in the embodiments, this application also discloses a control method for a dehumidification device of a water purifier. The control method is used to control the dehumidification device of the water purifier described in any of the above embodiments, and the method includes steps S801 to S805.

[0136] S801 generates a dehumidification start command when the current time is within a preset time period.

[0137] S803, in response to the dehumidification start command, control the heating device 2 to heat the water inside the heating device 2 to obtain heated water.

[0138] S805, when the water after heat treatment meets the preset temperature conditions, the hot water valve 9 is opened so that the water after heat treatment flows into the heat dissipation device 3.

[0139] S807, the water after heating is cooled by the heat dissipation device 3 to obtain wastewater.

[0140] S809, the wastewater is discharged from the heat dissipation device 3 to achieve dehumidification of the water purifier.

[0141] In one exemplary embodiment, such as Figure 9 As shown, the preset time period is set to 2:00 AM, and the deodorizing, sterilizing, and dehumidifying mode is activated by default at 2:00 AM every day. After the deodorizing, sterilizing, and dehumidifying mode is activated, the heating device 2 is controlled to heat the water inside the heating device 2 to obtain heated water; the first temperature detection device 43 inside the heating device 2 detects the temperature of the water in the heating water tank 8 to obtain a first temperature detection result; if the first temperature detection result is greater than 60°C, the hot water valve 9 is opened for 30 seconds to allow hot water to flow into the heat dissipation tank 6; if the preset water valve closing condition is met, the hot water valve 9 is closed and the fan 4 is turned on; the first temperature detection device 43 inside the heating device 2 is controlled to heat the water inside the heating water tank 8 to obtain a first temperature detection result; if the first temperature detection result is greater than 60°C, the hot water valve 9 is opened for 30 seconds to allow hot water to flow into the heat dissipation tank 6; if the preset water valve closing condition is met, the hot water valve 9 is closed and the fan 4 is turned on; the first temperature detection device 43 inside the heating device 2 is controlled to heat the water inside the heating water tank 8 to obtain a first temperature detection result; if the first temperature detection result is greater than 60°C, the hot water valve 9 is opened for 30 seconds to allow hot water to flow into the heat dissipation tank 6 to obtain a first temperature detection result ... The second temperature detection device 44 detects the temperature inside the heat dissipation box 6 and obtains a second temperature detection result. If the second temperature detection result is less than 40°C, the wastewater discharge port 40 is opened, and the hot water valve 9 is opened for thirty seconds to allow hot water to flow into the heat dissipation box 6. When the preset water valve closing conditions are met, the hot water valve 9 and the wastewater discharge port 40 are closed. This process of controlling the second temperature detection device 44 to detect the temperature inside the heat dissipation box 6 is repeated until the water level detection device 42 in the heating water tank 8 detects that the water level in the heating water tank 8 has reached the first preset water level, at which point the deodorizing, sterilizing, and dehumidifying mode is turned off. Specifically, the timing of turning on the deodorizing, sterilizing, and dehumidifying mode can be set by the user. In this deodorizing, sterilizing, and dehumidifying mode, the aromatherapy in the first aromatherapy storage device 20 and the second aromatherapy storage device 22 is dispersed inside the machine under the drive of hot air, achieving a deodorizing effect.

[0142] In one exemplary embodiment, such as Figure 10 As shown, to avoid affecting the user's water supply the next day, a water replenishment logic is initiated after the hot water in the heating water tank 8 is used up. When the water level detection device 42 detects that the water level in the heating water tank 8 is lower than the first preset water level, the deodorization, sterilization, and dehumidification mode is turned off; water is added to the heating water tank 8, and water replenishment stops when the water level detection device 42 detects that the water level in the heating water tank 8 has reached the second preset water level; at 6:00 AM, the heating device 2 is turned on to enter the working mode. Specifically, the time when the machine turns on for heating can be set by the user to achieve energy saving.

[0143] In one exemplary embodiment, such as Figure 11 As shown, even if the machine is not used for an extended period, sterilization and deodorization are still necessary. If the water purifier has not been used for five days, due to the high probability of residual water and contamination, it is necessary to turn on the heater until it boils; then, it should enter the deodorization, sterilization, and dehumidification mode. After executing and exiting the deodorization, sterilization, and dehumidification mode, it should enter the water replenishment logic; after executing and exiting the water replenishment logic, the heating device should be turned on to enter the normal operating mode. Specifically, the operating mode is the mode used normally by the water purifier.

[0144] like Figure 12 As shown in the embodiments, this application also discloses a control device 1200 for the dehumidification device of a water purifier, used to control the dehumidification device of the water purifier described in any of the above embodiments, comprising:

[0145] The start command generation module 1201 is used to generate a dehumidification start command when the current time is a preset time period;

[0146] The heating treatment module 1202 is used to control the heating device to heat the water inside the heating device in response to the dehumidification start command, so as to obtain heated water.

[0147] The hot water valve opening module 1203 is used to control the hot water valve to open when the water after heating meets the preset temperature conditions, so that the water after heating flows into the heat dissipation device.

[0148] The cooling module 1204 is used to cool the heated water based on the heat dissipation device to obtain wastewater.

[0149] Wastewater discharge module 1205 is used to discharge the wastewater from the heat dissipation device to achieve dehumidification of the water purifier.
