[0002] As Figure 1 shown, currently, an ozone water machine includes a control module, an ozone generation module, an air pump, a one-way valve, a water-gas mixing tee, etc. The air pump transports external air into the ozone generation module, and the gas in the ozone generation module is discharged into the water-gas mixing tee to mix with tap water. During use, we found that when the one-way valve is oxidized, leakage will occur, and the tap water in the water-gas mixing tee will flow into the ozone generation module, thereby damaging the ozone generation module. Summary of the Invention
[0003] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to overcome the deficiencies of the prior art and provide an ozone water machine with an anti-leakage function and connected to a faucet, which can effectively reduce failures and has a long service life.
[0004] The technical solution adopted by the present invention is: An ozone water machine with an anti-leakage function and connected to a faucet of the present invention includes a housing, wherein a control module, an ozone generation module, and an air pump are arranged in the housing, and both the ozone generation module and the air pump are electrically connected to the control module; The ozone water machine with an anti-leakage function and connected to a faucet further includes a water-gas mixing assembly and a power supply electrically connected to the control module. The air outlet of the air pump is communicated with the air inlet of the ozone generation module through an air inlet pipe, and the ozone outlet of the ozone generation module is communicated with the air inlet of the water-gas mixing assembly through an air outlet pipe. The ozone water machine with an anti-leakage function and connected to a faucet further includes a drain pipe, one end of the drain pipe is communicated with the air outlet pipe, and the other end of the drain pipe is provided with a first one-way valve; A second one-way valve is arranged between the air outlet pipe and the water-gas mixing assembly. The first one-way valve has a certain sealing pressure, and the one-way valve can be completely sealed only when the reverse pressure exceeds the sealing pressure, and it is not completely sealed when the sealing pressure is not reached. During operation, when the air pump is started, when the air pressure in the air outlet pipe exceeds the sealing pressure of the first one-way valve, the first one-way valve is in a completely closed state. When the air pressure in the air outlet pipe exceeds the opening pressure of the second one-way valve, the second one-way valve is opened, and the ozone-containing gas in the air outlet pipe enters the water-gas mixing assembly through the second one-way valve and mixes with tap water to generate ozone water; When stopping working, when the tap water in the water-gas mixing assembly seeps into the air outlet pipe from the second one-way valve, since the air pressure in the air outlet pipe is lower than the sealing pressure of the first one-way valve, the first one-way valve is not completely closed, and the water in the air outlet pipe seeps out from the first one-way valve and is discharged through the drain pipe.
[0005] Further, the water-vapor mixing component includes a water pipe. The air inlet of the water pipe is located on the side of the water pipe. A water flow sensor connected to the control module is provided on the water pipe, and the water flow sensor is used to detect whether there is water flowing through the water pipe.
[0006] Further, a humidity sensor connected to the control module is also provided inside the air outlet pipe. The humidity sensor is located above the connection between the drain pipe and the air outlet pipe. A first solenoid valve is provided on the water pipe, and the first solenoid valve is used to control the on-off of the water flow in the water pipe. The first solenoid valve is electrically connected to the control module. When the water infiltrated into the air outlet pipe cannot be discharged in time through the drain pipe and the water level in the air outlet pipe rises to a certain height, when the humidity sensor detects the infiltrated water, it sends a signal to the control module, and the control module controls the first solenoid valve to block the water flow in the water pipe from entering the ozone generation module.
[0007] Further, a humidity sensor connected to the control module is also provided inside the air outlet pipe. The humidity sensor is located above the connection between the drain pipe and the air outlet pipe. A second solenoid valve is provided on the air outlet pipe. The second solenoid valve is located above the humidity sensor, and the second solenoid valve is electrically connected to the control module. When the water infiltrated into the air outlet pipe cannot be discharged in time through the drain pipe and the water level in the air outlet pipe rises to a certain height, when the humidity sensor detects the infiltrated water, it sends a signal to the control module, and the control module blocks the water in the air outlet pipe from entering the ozone generation module by controlling the closing of the second solenoid valve.
[0008] Further, the ozone water machine with an anti-leakage function and connected to a faucet also includes a buzzer electrically connected to the control module.

Detailed Description of the Invention
[0011] Embodiment 1 In this embodiment, as Figure 2As shown in the figure, an ozone water machine with an anti-leakage function and connected to a faucet according to the present invention includes a housing 1. A control module 2, an ozone generation module 3, an air pump 4, and a water-gas mixing assembly 5 are arranged inside the housing 1. The ozone generation module 3 and the air pump 4 are both electrically connected to the control module 2. The ozone water machine with an anti-leakage function and connected to a faucet further includes a power supply 6 electrically connected to the control module 2. The air outlet of the air pump 4 is communicated with the air inlet of the ozone generation module 3 through an air inlet pipe 7. The ozone outlet of the ozone generation module 3 is communicated with the air inlet of the water-gas mixing assembly 5 through an air outlet pipe 8. The ozone water machine with an anti-leakage function and connected to a faucet further includes a drain pipe 9. One end of the drain pipe 9 is communicated with the air outlet pipe 8, and a first one-way valve 10 is arranged at the other end of the drain pipe 9. A second one-way valve 11 is arranged between the air outlet pipe 8 and the water-gas mixing assembly 5. During operation, when the air pump 4 is started and the air pressure in the air outlet pipe 8 exceeds the sealing pressure of the first one-way valve 10, the first one-way valve 10 is in a completely closed state. When the air pressure in the air outlet pipe 8 exceeds the opening pressure of the second one-way valve 11, the second one-way valve 11 is opened. The gas containing ozone in the air outlet pipe 8 enters the water-gas mixing assembly 5 through the second one-way valve 11 and mixes with tap water to generate ozone water. Since the sealing element of the second one-way valve 11 will be oxidized and damaged by ozone, resulting in leakage, when the machine stops working, the tap water in the water-gas mixing assembly 5 will seep into the air outlet pipe 8 from the second one-way valve 11. Since the air pump 4 stops working and the air pressure in the air outlet pipe 8 is lower than the sealing pressure of the first one-way valve 10, the first one-way valve 10 is not completely closed, and the water in the air outlet pipe 8 seeps out from the first one-way valve 10 and is discharged through the drain pipe 9.
[0012] In this embodiment, the water-gas mixing assembly 5 includes a water pipe 12. Both ends of the water pipe 12 pass through the housing 1. The two ends of the water pipe 12 are respectively the water inlet end of tap water and the water outlet end of tap water. The ozone inlet of the water pipe 12 is located on the side of the water pipe 12. A water flow sensor 13 connected to the control module 2 is arranged on the water pipe 12. The water flow sensor 13 is used to detect whether there is water flow through the water pipe 12.
[0013] In this embodiment, a humidity sensor 14 is further connected to the control module 2 inside the air outlet pipe 8. The humidity sensor 14 is located above the connection between the drain pipe 9 and the air outlet pipe 8. A first electromagnetic valve 15 is provided on the water pipe 12. The first electromagnetic valve 15 is used to control the on-off of the water flow in the water pipe 12. The first electromagnetic valve 15 is electrically connected to the control module 2. When the water infiltrated into the air outlet pipe 8 cannot be discharged in time through the drain pipe 9 and the water level in the air outlet pipe 8 rises to a certain height, when the humidity sensor 14 detects the infiltrated water, it sends a signal to the control module 2. The control module 2 controls the first electromagnetic valve 15 to block the water flow in the water pipe 12. The first electromagnetic valve 15 is a normally open electromagnetic valve and closes when it is powered on.
[0014] In this embodiment, the ozone water machine with an anti-leakage function and connected to a faucet further includes a buzzer 17 electrically connected to the control module 2. When the humidity sensor 14 detects the water infiltrated into the air outlet pipe 8, it sends a signal to the control module 2, and the control module 2 controls the buzzer 17 to emit a buzzing sound.
[0015] In this embodiment, the working principle of the present invention is as follows: When the user turns on the faucet, tap water flows through the water pipe 12. After the water flow sensor 13 detects the water flow signal, the water flow sensor 13 sends the water flow signal to the control module 2, and the control module 2 controls the ozone generation module 3 and the air pump 4 to start working. Since the flow rate of the air pump 4 is 2 L / min and the air leakage amount of the first one-way valve 10 when it is not fully closed is less than 2 L / min, the air pressure in the air outlet pipe 8 will increase. When the air pressure in the air outlet pipe 8 exceeds the sealing pressure of the first one-way valve 10, the first one-way valve 10 is completely closed. The air pressure in the air outlet pipe 8 continues to increase. When the air pressure in the air outlet pipe 8 is higher than the opening pressure of the second one-way valve 11, the second one-way valve 11 is opened, and the high-pressure gas mixed with ozone in the air outlet pipe 8 enters the water pipe 12 and mixes with the tap water to generate ozone water.
[0016] When the user closes the faucet and the water flow sensor 13 detects a lack of water flow signal, the control module 2 controls the ozone generation module 3 and the air pump 4 to stop working. Since both the intake pipe 7 and the outlet pipe 8 are connected to the ozone generation module 3, and the ozone generation module 3 is connected to the air pump 4, and the intake port of the air pump 4 is connected to the outside, the air pressure in the outlet pipe 8 will rapidly decrease after the air pump 4 stops working. When the air pressure in the outlet pipe 8 drops below the sealing pressure of the first one-way valve 10, the second one-way valve 11 closes, and the first one-way valve 10 cannot be fully closed. At this time, if the tap water in the water pipe 12 seeps into the outlet pipe 8 through the second one-way valve 11, since the first one-way valve 10 is in an incompletely closed state, the water in the outlet pipe 8 can seep out through the first one-way valve 10 and be discharged out of the body through the drain pipe 9, thus effectively protecting the ozone generation module 3.
[0017] If the seal of the second one-way valve 11 is severely oxidized, causing serious leakage, resulting in the first one-way valve 10 being completely closed or the drainage being insufficient, the water seeping into the outlet pipe 8 cannot be discharged through the drain pipe 9. When the water level in the outlet pipe 8 rises to a certain height, the humidity sensor 14 detects the seeping water and sends a signal to the control module 2. The control module 2 controls the first solenoid valve 15 to block the water flow in the water pipe 12, which can effectively prevent the tap water in the water pipe 12 from continuing to seep into the outlet pipe 8. At the same time, the control module 2 controls the buzzer 17 to emit an alarm sound to remind the user to replace the second one-way valve 11 and eliminate the fault, completely protecting the ozone generation module 3.
[0018] Embodiment 2 In this embodiment, as Figure 3 shown, the water-gas mixing component 5 is located outside the housing 1. The water-gas mixing component 5 includes a water pipe 12. The two ends of the water pipe 12 are respectively the water inlet end of tap water and the connection end to the bathing device. The ozone inlet of the water pipe 12 is located on the side of the water pipe 12. The second solenoid valve 16 may or may not be provided on the outlet pipe 8. If the second solenoid valve 16 is provided on the outlet pipe 8, the second solenoid valve 16 is located above the humidity sensor 14, and the second solenoid valve 16 is electrically connected to the control module 2. When a serious penetration occurs and the water seeping into the outlet pipe 8 cannot be discharged through the drain pipe 9 in time, when the water level in the outlet pipe 8 rises to a certain height, the humidity sensor 14 detects the seeping water and sends a signal to the control module 2. The control module 2 blocks the water in the outlet pipe 8 from entering the ozone generation module 3 by controlling the closing of the second solenoid valve 16.
[0019] In this embodiment, the working principle of the present invention is as follows: When the user turns on the faucet, tap water flows through the water pipe 12. After the water flow sensor 13 detects the water flow signal, the water flow sensor 13 sends the water flow signal to the control module 2, and the control module 2 controls the ozone generation module 3 and the air pump 4 to start working. When the pressures on both sides of the first one-way valve 10 are equal, the seal of the first one-way valve 10 is not fully sealed. Since the flow rate of the air pump 4 is 2 L / min, and the air leakage amount of the first one-way valve 10 when it is not fully closed is less than 2 L / min, the air pressure in the air outlet pipe 8 will increase. When the air pressure in the air outlet pipe 8 exceeds the sealing pressure of the first one-way valve 10, the first one-way valve 10 closes completely, and the air pressure in the air outlet pipe 8 continues to increase. When the air pressure in the air outlet pipe 8 is higher than the opening pressure of the second one-way valve 11, the second one-way valve 11 is opened, and the high-pressure gas mixed with ozone in the air outlet pipe 8 enters the water pipe 12 and mixes with the tap water, thereby generating ozone water.
[0020] When the user turns off the faucet, after the water flow sensor 13 detects no water flow signal, the control module 2 controls the ozone generation module 3 and the air pump 4 to stop working. Since both the air inlet pipe 7 and the air outlet pipe 8 are connected to the ozone generation module 3, the ozone generation module 3 is connected to the air pump 4, and the air inlet of the air pump 4 is connected to the outside, the air pressure in the air outlet pipe 8 will rapidly decrease after the air pump 4 stops working. When the air pressure in the air outlet pipe 8 is lower than the sealing pressure of the first one-way valve 10, the second one-way valve 11 closes, and the first one-way valve 10 cannot close completely. If the tap water in the water pipe 12 seeps into the air outlet pipe 8 through the second one-way valve 11, since the first one-way valve 10 is in an incompletely closed state, the water in the air outlet pipe 8 can seep out through the first one-way valve 10 and be discharged out of the body through the drain pipe 9, thus effectively protecting the ozone generation module 3.
[0021] If the seal of the second one-way valve 11 is severely oxidized, causing serious leakage, resulting in the complete closure of the first one-way valve 10 or insufficient drainage, the water seeping into the air outlet pipe 8 cannot be discharged through the drain pipe 9. When the water level in the air outlet pipe 8 rises to a certain height and the humidity sensor 14 detects the seeping water, it sends a signal to the control module 2. The control module 2 controls the second solenoid valve 16 to block the passage in the air outlet pipe 8, preventing the water in the air outlet pipe 8 from entering the ozone generation module 3, thus playing a good protective role. At the same time, the control module 2 controls the buzzer 17 to emit an alarm sound to remind the user to replace the second one-way valve 11.
[0022] Although the embodiments of the present invention are described in terms of actual solutions, they do not constitute a limitation on the meaning of the present invention. For those skilled in the art, modifications to its implementation solutions according to this specification and combinations with other solutions are obvious.
