[0027] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts belong to the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0028] Figure 1A Schematic diagram of a waterway structure of a water supply device 1A in an embodiment. The water supply device 1 includes an inlet module 10, a heating module 20, an outlet module 30, and a control module 40. Among them, the heating module 20 includes: an instant heating unit 21, a heating energy storage unit 22, and a circulation water pump 23;

[0036] It should be noted that since the requirements for the flow rate of the hot water and the additional water flow paths are relatively low, in order to save space and material costs while meeting the functions, the hot water and the additional water flow paths can use pipes with relatively small diameters, such as 2 - inch pipes. The usage amount of the normal - temperature and cold - water water flow paths may be relatively large, and the normal - temperature and cold - water can use pipes with relatively large diameters, such as 3 - inch pipes. The present application does not limit this.

[0037] Please refer to Figures 1B - 1D , the water supply device includes a machine body 101, and the machine body 101 is composed of a housing 203, a heat exchange mounting shell 202, a first side plate 201, a second side plate 204, a mounting bracket 301, a water path mounting seat 401, a heat - preservation frame plate 302, and a tank body 303.

In this way, the overall assembly of the water supply device can be realized.

[0040] Reference Figure 1D An internal electric heating coil 4033 is installed at the bottom of the waterway mounting seat 401. The water liquid inside the tank body 303 can be heated by the installed internal electric heating coil 4033.

[0041] In a specific implementation, a circulation pump is installed on the waterway mounting seat 401. One end of the circulation pump is fixedly connected to a drain pipe 4011. A return water pipe 4022 is fixedly installed on the waterway mounting seat 401. A water supply pipe for replenishing water into the tank body 303 is installed on the waterway mounting seat 401. The installed circulation pump can be used to exchange heat between the hot water inside the tank body 303 and the heat exchanger in the heat exchange mounting shell 202. The water liquid after heat exchange then flows back into the tank body 303. The water supply pipe is used to replenish water into the tank body 303. The cold water after heat exchange by the heat exchanger can be replenished into the tank body 303 as makeup water after heat exchange.

[0042] Based on Figures 1B - 1D The described water supply device can achieve the following functions:

[0043] Obtain a cleaning trigger signal, where the cleaning trigger signal is used to indicate cleaning of the tank for storing the heat exchange medium in the water supply device;

[0044] Respond to the cleaning trigger signal and obtain the first state information of the tank of the water supply device;

[0045] Determine the tank cleaning control information according to the first state information;

[0046] Control the water supply device to clean the tank according to the tank cleaning control information..

[0047] In the embodiment of the present application, by obtaining a cleaning trigger signal, where the cleaning trigger signal is used to indicate cleaning of the tank for storing the heat exchange medium in the water supply device; responding to the cleaning trigger signal and obtaining the first state information of the tank of the water supply device; determining the tank cleaning control information according to the first state information; controlling the water supply device to clean the tank according to the tank cleaning control information; controlling the water supply device to perform cleaning according to the determined tank cleaning control information, the automation and intelligence of the cleaning process are realized. Compared with the traditional cleaning method, in the present application, through intelligent control, the cleaning system can perform cleaning according to preset optimal cleaning parameters, such as appropriate water flow rate, cleaning liquid concentration, cleaning time, etc. Thus, the cleaning efficiency of the tank of the water supply device is improved.

[0048] Please refer to Figure 2 as shown Figure 2 is a schematic flowchart of a water supply device cleaning control method in an embodiment. The method includes the following steps:

[0049] S1. Obtain a cleaning trigger signal, which is used to indicate cleaning the tank for storing the heat exchange medium in the water supply device.

[0050] In the embodiments of the present application, the signal type of the waterway cleaning trigger signal can be one of the following: digital signal, pulse signal, software instruction signal, etc., which is not limited herein.

[0051] It should be noted that the method provided in the embodiments of the present application can be used to clean the tank in the water supply device as Figures 1B - 1D shown in the water supply device 1.

[0052] In a specific embodiment, a fixed cleaning time interval can be preset in the control module of the water supply device. For example, according to the usage frequency of the water supply device and the local water quality, it is set to automatically generate a cleaning trigger signal every 3 - 6 months. For areas with a higher household usage frequency or harder water quality, the cleaning cycle can be appropriately shortened. This method is simple and direct. The internal timer of the water supply device is used to calculate the time. When the set cleaning time is reached, a cleaning trigger signal is generated. Or, a water quality sensor can be installed at the water inlet or inside the tank of the water supply device to continuously monitor parameters such as the hardness, pH value, and impurity content in the water. When the water quality sensor detects that the concentration of calcium, magnesium and other ions (hardness index) in the water exceeds a certain threshold, it indicates that the possibility of water scale formation in the water increases. At this time, a cleaning trigger signal is generated. For example, if it is detected that the calcium hardness in the water reaches more than 150 mg / L (the specific threshold can be determined according to factors such as the material and capacity of the water supply device and the tank), it is reminded that the tank needs to be cleaned. The water quality sensor can also detect other impurities and sediments in the water. For example, the content of suspended particles in the water is detected by an optical sensor or a turbidity sensor. When the particle content reaches a certain level, it means that more dirt may have accumulated in the tank. At this time, a cleaning trigger signal is generated. This trigger method based on real-time water quality monitoring can timely respond to the impact of water quality changes on the tank, perform cleaning in advance, and prevent excessive accumulation of dirt.

[0053] In one embodiment, the water supply device includes an inlet module, a heating module and an outlet module. The heating module includes a heating energy storage unit and an instant heating unit; the inlet module is connected to the heating module, the heating module is connected to the inlet module and the outlet module, the outlet module is connected to the heating module, and the heating energy storage unit includes a tank.

[0054] S2. Respond to the cleaning trigger signal and obtain the first state information of the tank of the water supply device.

[0055] In the embodiments of the present application, the first status information may include at least one of the following: scale information in the tank, depth information of the heat exchange medium in the tank, volume information of the heat exchange medium in the tank, temperature information of the tank, etc., which are not limited herein.

[0056] In a specific embodiment, the water supply device may respond to a waterway cleaning trigger signal to perform a status detection on the tank of the water supply device to obtain the first status information.

[0057] In an embodiment, step S2, obtaining the first status information of the tank of the water supply device, may include the following steps:

[0058] S21. Obtain the first water storage amount of the tank during use, obtain the water quality information of the tank during use, and obtain the water temperature information of the tank during use;

[0059] S22. Determine the first scale information of the tank according to the first water storage amount, the water quality information, and the water temperature information;

[0060] S23. Determine the first status information of the tank according to the first scale information.

[0061] In the embodiments of the present application, the first scale information may include at least one of the following: scale composition, scale thickness, scale position distribution information, scale adhesion, scale growth rate, etc., which are not limited herein.

[0062] The specific first water storage amount may be the water storage amount during scale information detection, the water quality during detection, and the water temperature information.

[0063] After obtaining the water storage amount, water quality information, and water temperature information, the first scale information may be determined by methods such as looking up a table. Specifically, a mapping relationship table between the water storage amount, water quality information, water temperature information, and scale information may be preset in advance, so that the corresponding first scale information can be obtained by looking up in the mapping relationship table.

[0064] After obtaining the first scale information, the first scale information may be determined as the first status information, or the first water storage amount and the first scale information may be determined as the first status information.

[0065] Of course, when determining the first scale information, it may also be to detect the water condition in the tank through a turbidity sensor and determine the first scale information according to the detection result. (When the water circulation is running, scale / impurities will not deposit) It may also be to identify the first scale information by detecting the temperature difference between the water temperature in the tank and the temperature of the outer wall of the tank. Of course, the first scale information may also be obtained by other means, which are not specifically limited herein.

[0066] S3. Determine the tank cleaning control information according to the first status information.

[0067] In one embodiment, step S3, the determining the tank cleaning control information according to the first status information may include the following steps:

[0068] A1. Determine the reference control information of the ultrasonic cleaning device according to the first scale information;

[0069] A2. Determine the discharge information of the heat exchange medium for the tank according to the first volume information;

[0070] A3. Adjust the reference control information according to the discharge information to obtain the tank cleaning control information.

[0071] In the embodiment of the present application, the reference control information may include at least one of the following: cleaning frequency control information, cleaning intensity control information, cleaning direction control information, etc., which are not limited herein; the discharge information may include at least one of the following: discharge volume, discharge rate, discharge time, etc., which are not limited herein.

[0072] In a specific embodiment, the reference control information of the ultrasonic cleaning device may be determined first according to the first scale information; then, the discharge information of the heat exchange medium for the tank may be determined according to the first volume information. Specifically, the discharge information may include the discharge rate and the discharge time. Since the tank needs to be cleaned, all the heat exchange medium in the tank needs to be discharged. Therefore, the discharge port information of the tank (for example, the discharge port area) may be obtained to determine the discharge rate of the tank (for example, the volume of the heat exchange medium discharged per unit time), and the discharge time may be determined according to the discharge efficiency and the first volume information, so as to obtain the discharge information; then, the reference control information may be adjusted according to the discharge information to obtain the tank cleaning control information.

[0073] In this way, by determining the reference control information of the ultrasonic cleaning device through the first scale information, an accurate cleaning strategy can be formulated according to the actual situation of the scale (such as thickness, hardness, distribution, etc.). For example, if the first scale information shows that the scale is thick and unevenly distributed, a higher ultrasonic cleaning frequency, a larger power, and a longer cleaning time may be determined as the reference control information, so as to effectively clean the scale in a targeted manner.

[0074] In one embodiment, step A1, the determining the reference control information of the ultrasonic cleaning device according to the first scale information may include the following steps:

[0075] B1. Extract the scale distribution position information from the first scale information;

[0076] B2. Determine the emission direction curve of the ultrasonic cleaning device according to the scale distribution position information;

[0077] B3. Extract the scale distribution thickness information from the first scale information;

[0078] B4. Determine the emission frequency information according to the distribution thickness information and the emission direction curve;

[0079] B5. Determine the reference control information according to the emission direction curve and the emission frequency information.

[0080] In a specific embodiment, the scale distribution position information in the tank can be extracted from the first scale information; then, the emission direction curve of the ultrasonic cleaning device can be determined according to the scale distribution position information. Specifically, a three-dimensional rectangular coordinate system based on the tank can be constructed first. For example, the tank can be regarded as a cubic space, and a three-dimensional rectangular coordinate system can be established with a vertex of the tank as the coordinate origin. The coordinates of each scale point in the tank can be determined according to the scale distribution position information to obtain a plurality of scale coordinates. Then, the coordinates of the ultrasonic cleaning device can be determined to obtain the device coordinates. The emission directions between the device coordinates and the plurality of scale coordinates can be determined to obtain a plurality of emission directions. Then, an emission time can be assigned to each emission direction among the plurality of emission directions. The set of these plurality of emission directions and their emission times constitutes the emission direction curve. That is to say, the emission direction curve contains the coordinates and time of the emission directions, which means cleaning is carried out in a certain order.

[0081] It should be noted that during the ultrasonic cleaning process, the removal situation of the scale can also be monitored in real time through an ultrasonic sensor. The change of the ultrasonic reflection signal or other detection means (such as optical detection) can be used to judge whether the scale has been removed. For example, when the scale in a certain area has been removed, the ultrasonic reflection signal in this area will change significantly. According to the real-time monitoring results, the emission direction curve can be dynamically adjusted. If the scale in a certain area has been cleaned, the emission intensity in the direction of this area can be reduced or the emission direction can be adjusted to the area where there is still scale. This can optimize the cleaning process, improve the cleaning efficiency, and avoid over-cleaning the already cleaned area.

[0082] Furthermore, the scale distribution thickness information inside the tank can be extracted from the first scale information; then, based on the distribution thickness information and the emission direction curve, the emission frequency information can be determined. Specifically, since the greater the scale thickness, the higher the cleaning difficulty and the higher the required emission frequency, a mapping relationship between the preset distribution thickness information and the ultrasonic emission frequency can be preset, and the reference ultrasonic emission frequency corresponding to the scale distribution thickness information inside the tank can be determined according to this mapping relationship. Then, considering the influence of the emission direction curve, the reference ultrasonic emission frequency can be adjusted. If it is in the area where the energy is concentrated in the emission direction and the scale thickness belongs to the medium difficulty level, the frequency can be appropriately reduced because the concentrated energy can compensate for the deficiency of slightly lower frequency. In the area where the energy is weak at the edge of the emission direction, for the same scale thickness, the frequency can be appropriately increased to ensure that there is sufficient energy for cleaning. Thus, the emission frequency information is obtained; finally, the emission direction curve and the emission frequency information can be determined as the reference control information.

[0083] In this way, by extracting the scale distribution position information from the first scale information and determining the emission direction curve of the ultrasonic cleaning device accordingly, the ultrasonic energy can be accurately focused on the area with scale. For example, if the scale is mainly concentrated at the bottom and corners of the tank, by adjusting the emission direction curve, the ultrasonic wave can directly aim at these areas for cleaning, avoiding wasting energy in the area without scale, thus greatly improving the cleaning efficiency.

[0084] In one embodiment, step A3, the adjusting the reference control information according to the discharge information to obtain the tank cleaning control information may include the following steps:

[0085] C1. Predict the distribution information of the residual heat exchange medium in the tank according to the discharge information to obtain the residue distribution information;

[0086] C2. Adjust the reference control information according to the residue distribution information to obtain the tank cleaning control information.

[0087] In the embodiments of the present application, the distribution information of the residual heat exchange medium in the tank can be predicted based on the discharge information to obtain the residue distribution information. Specifically, a physical model of the tank can be constructed, and the process of discharging the heat exchange medium in the tank according to the above discharge information can be simulated in the physical model. According to the velocity field and liquid level height at the last moment obtained by the simulation, the distribution area of the residual medium in the tank, that is, the residue distribution information, can be determined. For example, areas with lower velocities (such as corners, edges, etc.) are likely to retain more medium. Then, the reference control information can be adjusted according to the residue distribution information to obtain the tank cleaning control information. Specifically, the emission direction curve in the reference control information can be adjusted according to the residue distribution information. For example, if there is a large amount of residue in a certain corner, the emission direction pointing to that corner can be added to the emission direction curve. Then, the emission frequency information in the reference control information can also be adjusted according to the residue distribution information. For areas with more residues and greater cleaning difficulty, the emission frequency of ultrasonic waves can be appropriately increased. A higher frequency can generate a stronger cavitation effect and enhance the cleaning ability. Thus, the tank cleaning control information is obtained.

[0088] In this way, by adjusting the cleaning control information based on the residue distribution information and reasonably allocating the cleaning resources, for areas with less residues, the usage amount of the cleaning liquid and the intensity of ultrasonic cleaning (such as reducing the power and frequency) can be appropriately reduced to avoid waste. At the same time, precise cleaning control can also reduce unnecessary energy consumption because the cleaning equipment does not need to work excessively in areas that have been cleaned or have very little residue. This can minimize the cleaning cost and improve the resource utilization efficiency on the premise of ensuring the cleaning quality.

[0089] In one embodiment, in step S3, the determining the tank cleaning control information according to the first state information may include the following steps:

[0090] D1. Determine the cleaning type according to the state information;

[0091] D2. If the cleaning type is sediment cleaning, extract the sediment information from the state information;

[0092] D3. Determine the tank cleaning control information according to the sediment information.

[0093] In the embodiments of the present application, the cleaning type may include one of the following: sediment cleaning, scale cleaning, sediment cleaning and scale cleaning, etc., which are not limited herein.

[0094] In specific embodiments, the cleaning type can be determined according to the status information. Specifically, it can be determined whether there is scale or sediment in the tank body based on the status information. If there is only scale, the cleaning type is scale cleaning. If there is only sediment, the cleaning type is sediment cleaning. If both sediment and scale exist, the cleaning type is sediment cleaning and scale cleaning.

[0095] If the cleaning type is sediment cleaning, the sediment information in the tank body can be extracted from the status information; the tank body cleaning control information can be determined according to the sediment information. Specifically, the sediment distribution information and sediment thickness information can be obtained from the sediment information. Then, the first emission direction curve can be determined according to the sediment distribution information, and the first emission frequency information can be determined according to the sediment thickness information. Specifically, the method for obtaining the first emission direction curve can be the same as the method for obtaining the emission direction curve described above, and the method for obtaining the first emission frequency information can be the same as the method for obtaining the emission frequency information described above.

[0096] In this way, by determining the cleaning type based on the status information, the most suitable cleaning method can be selected according to the specific conditions in the tank body (such as the status of scale, sediment, etc.). For example, if it is determined to be sediment cleaning, this indicates that the main problem in the current tank body is sediment accumulation, rather than other types of dirt or faults, thus avoiding the use of inappropriate cleaning methods, such as using a cleaning method for oil stains for sediment cleaning, ensuring that the cleaning method conforms to the actual situation of the tank body.

[0097] S4. Control the water supply device to clean the tank body according to the tank body cleaning control information.

[0098] In the embodiments of the present application, according to the tank body cleaning control information, the ultrasonic cleaning device in the water supply device is controlled to work at the corresponding emission frequency information, and ultrasonic waves are emitted in the emission direction curve to clean the tank body.

[0099] In the above water supply device cleaning control method, by obtaining a cleaning trigger signal, the cleaning trigger signal is used to indicate cleaning of the tank body for storing the heat exchange medium in the water supply device; in response to the cleaning trigger signal, the first status information of the tank body of the water supply device is obtained; the tank body cleaning control information is determined according to the first status information; the water supply device is controlled to clean the tank body according to the tank body cleaning control information; controlling the water supply device to clean according to the determined tank body cleaning control information realizes the automation and intelligence of the cleaning process. Compared with traditional cleaning methods, in the present application, through intelligent control, the cleaning system can clean according to preset optimal cleaning parameters, such as appropriate water flow rate, cleaning solution concentration, cleaning time, etc., thereby improving the cleaning efficiency of the tank body of the water supply device.
