It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain this application and are not intended to limit this application.

[0031] Common water treatment equipment currently includes a wide variety of categories, including water purifiers, chillers, water heaters, and mineralized water machines. Each category offers specialized equipment for drinking and domestic use, producing water of varying qualities to meet the specific needs of users in various water use scenarios. However, current water treatment equipment has limited functional integration and can typically only deliver water of a single quality. For example, a mineralized water machine can only deliver water containing specific minerals, while a chiller can only deliver low-temperature water.

[0032] However, the water usage scenarios that users face in their daily lives are extremely diverse, and often multiple different types of water treatment equipment are required to basically meet the water needs of various daily scenarios. The increase in the number of water treatment equipment not only brings many troubles in use and maintenance, but also takes up a lot of space when idle.

[0033] In order to improve or solve the above technical problems, the inventors of this application have proposed at least the following embodiments after long-term research.

[0034] See Figure 1 , Figure 1 Schematic diagram of the water channel structure of the first embodiment of the water channel system provided by the present application. The specific embodiment of the present application provides a water channel system 1, which can be used in mineral spring mineralization equipment. The water channel system 1 is provided with a pre-inlet water channel 11, a post-inlet water channel 12, a reverse osmosis water channel 13, a mineralization water channel 14, a pure water outlet 15, and a mineralization water channel 16. The pre-inlet water channel 11 is used to connect the water inlet channel and the water inlet of the pre-filter element 101. The post-inlet water channel 12 is used to connect the water outlet of the pre-filter element 101 and the water inlet of the post-filter element 102. The pure water outlet 15 is used to connect the water outlet of the post-filter element 102. The reverse osmosis water channel 13 is used to connect the water outlet of the pre-filter element 101 and the water inlet of the reverse osmosis filter element 103. The mineralization water channel 14 is used to connect the pure water outlet of the reverse osmosis filter element 103 and the water inlet of the mineralization filter element 104. The mineralized water outlet 16 is used to communicate with the water outlet of the mineralized filter element 104 .

[0035] Specifically, the water inlet channel can be a pipeline connected to an external water source. For example, the water inlet channel can be a tap water pipe entering a household. The pre-water inlet 11 can input the city tap water in the tap water pipe into the pre-filter 101. The pre-filter 101 can perform a preliminary filtration on the water body input from the water inlet, and then output the filtered water body from the water outlet. The pre-filter 101 can filter out at least one of the macromolecules, heavy metal elements, and particulate matter in the water body to a certain extent. The post-filter 102 can perform a secondary filtration on the water body input from the water inlet, and then output the filtered water body from the water outlet. The post-filter 102 can further filter out at least one of the macromolecules, heavy metal elements, and particulate matter in the water body.

[0036] The pre-filter element 101 and the post-filter element 102 may include at least one of a nanofiltration filter element, an activated carbon filter element, a zeolite filter element, a bamboo charcoal filter element, and a PP cotton filter element (polypropylene melt-blown filter element), which can effectively filter out impurities such as pigments, odor molecules, solid particulate matter, and grease in the water, thereby improving the water quality.

[0037] Nanofiltration elements, innovatively invented through the cross-fertilization of advanced nanotechnology and traditional filtration techniques, represent a filter element category between ultrafiltration and reverse osmosis. Their separation performance relies on the nanoscale microporous structure of their active separation layer, operating under the adsorption-dissolution-diffusion-diafiltration model. While retaining organic matter and heavy metals that can pass through ultrafiltration, they also allow the permeation of some minerals retained by reverse osmosis, enabling simultaneous concentration and salt permeation processes to achieve specific separation and purification requirements.

[0038] Alternatively, as Figure 1 As shown, the pre-filter element 101 and the post-filter element 102 can be specifically arranged in two mutually isolated cavities in the same filter element assembly.

[0039] The reverse osmosis filter element 103 is a filter element that uses the principle of selective filtration of a semipermeable membrane to efficiently remove impurities from water. The reverse osmosis membrane therein can be used to filter the water input at the water inlet, and then the filtered water with better water quality is output through the pure water outlet. The reverse osmosis filter element 103 can be used to remove most soluble salts (such as calcium, magnesium, sodium), heavy metals (lead, arsenic), bacteria, viruses and organic matter in the water. In addition, the reverse osmosis membrane in the reverse osmosis filter element 103 can be wrapped with a PP cotton filter element and an activated carbon filter element in sequence from the outside to the inside, and a post-activated carbon filter element can be provided in the inner layer of the reverse osmosis membrane. The PP cotton filter element can intercept large particles of impurities such as mud, sand, and rust to protect the reverse osmosis membrane. The activated carbon filter element can absorb residual chlorine and odor molecules in the water to protect the reverse osmosis membrane from oxidative damage.

[0040] The mineralized filter element 104 usually contains soluble minerals. When water is input from the water inlet to flow through or soak the mineralized filter element 104, the minerals in the mineralized filter element 104 will dissolve into the water, thereby releasing specific mineral elements into the water, turning the water into mineralized water. The mineralized water in the mineralized filter element 104 can be output through the water outlet of the mineralized filter element 104.

[0041] In the structure provided in this specific embodiment, by providing a post-filter inlet 12 connected to the post-filter 102 and a reverse osmosis inlet 13 connected to the reverse osmosis filter 103 downstream of the pre-filter 101, the water filtered by the pre-filter 101 can be directly output through the pure water outlet 15 after being filtered by the post-filter 102. The water filtered twice by the pre-filter 101 and the post-filter 102 has good water quality and can meet most pure water usage needs except for direct drinking. In addition, the water filtered by the pre-filter can also be filtered by the reverse osmosis filter 103 and then input into the mineralization filter 104, so that water containing specific minerals can be output through the mineralization outlet 16, which can meet the demand for mineralized water.

[0042] The water system 1 of this specific embodiment sets different water channels to connect different filter elements according to different water needs, and can provide two water channels with different water quality, so that a single water system 1 can be used to adapt to diverse water quality needs, effectively improving the versatility of the mineral spring mineralization equipment equipped with the water system 1.

[0043] Alternatively, as Figure 3 As shown, Figure 3 1 is a schematic diagram of the water channel structure of the third embodiment of the water channel system provided by the present application. The water channel system 1 may also include an inlet valve 121, a booster pump 122, a pre-water quality detection component 123, a post-water inlet valve 124 and a post-water quality detection component 125. The inlet valve 121 is connected to the reverse osmosis water channel 13 and is used to control the water body to selectively flow into the reverse osmosis water channel 13. The booster pump 122 is connected to the reverse osmosis water channel 13 and / or the post-water channel 12. The booster pump 122 is used to apply pressure to the water body, thereby causing the water body to be filtered by the reverse osmosis filter element 103 and / or the post-filter element 102. The pre-water quality detection component 123 is connected to the reverse osmosis water channel 13 and is used to monitor the water quality of the water body in the reverse osmosis water channel 13. The post-water inlet valve 124 is connected to the post-water channel 12 and is used to control the water body to selectively flow into the post-water channel 12. The rear water quality detection component 125 is connected to the rear water channel 12 and is used to monitor the water quality of the water in the rear water channel 12.

[0044] The front water quality detection element 123 and the rear water quality detection element 125 can be TDS (Total Dissolved Solids) water quality detection elements. TDS water quality detection elements are tools used to quickly measure the dissolved solids content in water. Dissolved ions in water increase the conductivity of water. TDS water quality detection elements can indirectly infer the TDS value (in ppm or mg / L) of the water by measuring the conductivity of the water.

[0045] See Figure 1 In a specific embodiment of the present application, the water system 1 is further provided with a domestic water outlet 2, which is used to connect the water outlet of the pre-filter 101 and the domestic water equipment 91. The domestic water equipment 91 can be a washing machine, a faucet, a shower, a fish tank, a dishwasher, etc. These devices all require a large amount of water with better quality than tap water. However, since the water in these devices is not directly used for drinking by users, the water quality requirements are not particularly high. It is sufficient to just filter out impurities such as macromolecules, heavy metal elements, and particulate matter in the water.

[0046] Among them, when the domestic water equipment 91 is a shower head, the water system 1 may also include a microbubble module, which can be connected to the domestic water outlet 2 or directly set in the shower head. The microbubble module can draw air into the water body through the Venturi effect, and use eddy currents to cut and refine bubbles, thereby converting the water body into a water body rich in microbubbles, which can improve the cleaning performance of the water body and enhance the versatility of the mineral spring mineralization equipment.

[0047] In the structure provided in this specific embodiment, the domestic water outlet 2 is used to output the water that has only been filtered by the pre-filter 101 to the domestic water equipment 91. When only the pre-filter 101 is used to filter the water, the water system 1 has a high filtration efficiency while improving the water quality of the outlet. It can quickly output the water that has been preliminarily filtered, which is in line with the characteristics of the domestic water equipment 91 with large water consumption and low water quality requirements. It can well meet the water needs of the domestic water equipment 91, and further improve the versatility of the water system 1.

[0048] See Figure 2 , Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of the waterway structure of the second embodiment of the waterway system provided in this application. In a specific embodiment of this application, the waterway system 1 further includes a bridging waterway 3, which connects the pure water outlet 15 and the domestic water outlet 2. The waterway system 1 includes a first check valve 31 and a bridging valve 32. The bridging valve 32 and the first check valve 31 are connected to the bridging waterway 3, and the pure water outlet 15 is located upstream of the domestic water outlet 2 relative to the first check valve 31.

[0049] A certain amount of water will also remain in the post-filter element 102 and the pure water outlet channel 15 and post-inlet channel 12 of the water system 1. This water can only be discharged through the pure water outlet channel 15. The water discharged through the pure water outlet channel 15 has better water quality than the water discharged through the domestic water outlet channel 2. However, since it also needs to be filtered by the post-filter element 102, its output efficiency is lower and it is usually only used for equipment with higher water quality requirements, such as water heaters.

[0050] In the structure provided in this specific embodiment, a bridge waterway 3 is used to connect the pure water outlet 15 and the domestic water outlet 2. When the bridge valve 32 is opened, the water output through the pure water outlet 15 can be guided to the domestic water outlet 2. A first check valve 31 is provided to prevent the water with poor water quality in the domestic water outlet 2 from flowing back into the pure water outlet 15 and polluting the water with better water quality in the pure water outlet 15. When there is no demand for the use of water with better water quality, this part of the water with better water quality can be supplied to the domestic water equipment 91 through the bridge waterway 3. This not only prevents the water in the pure water outlet 15 from breeding microorganisms due to long-term accumulation and causing water quality degradation, but also can use the water with better water quality stored in the pure water outlet 15 to fill the demand gap when the water supply efficiency of the domestic water outlet 2 cannot meet the use demand of the domestic water equipment 91, thereby realizing flexible allocation of water in the waterway system 1 and improving the availability of the waterway system 1.

[0051] See Figure 1 、 Figure 2 In one embodiment of the present application, the water system 1 may further include a temperature-controlled water outlet 41. One end of the temperature-controlled water outlet 41 is connected to the temperature-controlled drinking water device 92, and the other end of the temperature-controlled water outlet 41 is connected to the water outlet of the mineralized filter element 104 or the mineralized water outlet 16. The temperature-controlled drinking water device 92 can change the temperature of the water using a cooling element and / or a heating element, and specifically can be at least one of a chiller, a water heater, and an ice maker.

[0052] By utilizing the temperature-controlled water outlet 41 provided in this specific embodiment, the mineralized water output from the mineralized filter element 104 can be input into the temperature-controlled drinking water equipment 92, so that the temperature-controlled drinking water equipment 92 can output mineralized water with a temperature that meets the user's water needs, so as to further adapt to the water demand for mineralized water requiring a specific water temperature and improve the availability of the water system 1.

[0053] Optionally, a temperature-controlled check valve 43 may be connected to the temperature-controlled water outlet 41. The temperature-controlled check valve 43 can only conduct water in one direction. The temperature-controlled check valve 43 can prevent the temperature-controlled water from flowing back from the striped drinking water equipment to the water outlet of the mineralization filter element 104 or the mineralization water outlet 16, thereby preventing the solubility of minerals from being affected by temperature changes and causing the mineral concentration of the mineralized water to fail to meet water use requirements.

[0054] See Figure 3 , Figure 3 This is a schematic diagram of the waterway structure of the third embodiment of the waterway system provided herein. In a specific embodiment of the present application, the waterway system 1 may further include a drinking water outlet 42, one end of which is connected to a temperature-controlled drinking water device 92. The other end of the drinking water outlet 42 is connected to the pure water outlet of the reverse osmosis filter 103 or the mineralized water inlet 14. Water filtered through the reverse osmosis filter 103 can be fed into the temperature-controlled drinking water device 92 via the drinking water outlet 42. The temperature of this water can be controlled by the temperature-controlled drinking water device 92, thereby delivering water of a desired temperature and good quality to the user.

[0055] Furthermore, users may also have specific requirements for the mineral concentration in mineralized water. Therefore, after the water filtered by the reverse osmosis filter element 103 is input into the temperature-controlled drinking water equipment 92, this part of the water can also be used to blend with the mineralized water, thereby reducing the concentration of minerals in the mineralized water to a level that meets user needs, reducing the probability of the water system 1 outputting mineral water with too high a mineral concentration affecting the use effect, and being able to adjust the mineral concentration of the mineralized water according to user needs, thereby improving the availability of the water system 1.

[0056] See Figure 4 、 Figure 5 , Figure 4 This is a schematic diagram of the water channel structure of the fourth embodiment of the water channel system provided by this application. Figure 5 In a specific embodiment of the present application, the water system 1 may further include a mixing water channel 5, one end of which is used to connect to the mineralization water equipment 93, and the water system 1 includes a mixing valve body.

[0057] Alternatively, as Figure 5 As shown, the mixing valve body may include a three-way valve 51, which connects the pure water outlet 15, the mineralized water outlet 16, and the other end of the mixing water channel 5. By controlling the three-way valve 51, the volume or flow of water entering the mixing water channel 5 from the pure water outlet 15 and the mineralized water outlet 16 can be controlled. Therefore, by controlling the ratio of the two waters, the concentration of minerals in the water in the mixing water channel 5 can be controlled, and water with a mineral concentration that meets the water demand can be provided to the mineralized water device 93.

[0058] Alternatively, as Figure 4As shown, the mixing valve body includes a pure water valve 52 and a mineralized water valve 53. The other end of the mixing water channel 5 is connected to the pure water outlet channel 15 and the mineralized water outlet channel 16. The pure water valve 52 is connected to the pure water outlet channel 15 and is located upstream of the mixing water channel 5, and the mineralized water valve 53 is connected to the mineralized water outlet channel 16 and is located upstream of the mixing water channel 5. By controlling the pure water valve 52 and the mineralized water valve 53, the volume or flow of water entering the mixing water channel 5 from the pure water outlet channel 15 and the mineralized water outlet channel 16 can be controlled. Therefore, by controlling the ratio of the two waters, the concentration of minerals in the water in the mixing water channel 5 can be controlled, and water with a mineral concentration that meets the water demand can be provided to the mineralized water device 93.

[0059] See Figure 1 In one embodiment of the present application, the water system 1 further includes a second check valve 61 and a return valve 62. The water system 1 includes a return waterway 6, one end of which is connected to the pre-inlet waterway 11. The second check valve 61 and the return valve 62 are connected to the return waterway 6. Furthermore, the post-filter element 102 is located upstream of the pre-inlet waterway 11 relative to the second check valve 61.

[0060] Optionally, the other end of the reflux waterway 6 can be connected to the outlet of the pure water outlet waterway 15 or the post-filter element 102, so that the water output by the pure water outlet waterway 15 or the post-filter element 102 can be guided back to the front inlet waterway 11, which can prevent the water in the pure water outlet waterway 15 from breeding microorganisms and causing water quality to deteriorate due to accumulation for too long. This part of the water can also be re-input into other waterways such as the reverse osmosis inlet waterway 13 and the mineralization inlet waterway 14 to prepare water bodies with different water qualities to meet the water needs of users, thereby realizing flexible allocation of water bodies in the waterway system 1 and improving the availability of the waterway system 1.

[0061] See Figures 1 to 5 In a specific embodiment of the present application, the water system 1 may further include a first water quality detection component 72 and a second water quality detection component 73. The first water quality detection component 72 is connected to the mineralized water inlet 14, and the second water quality detection component 73 is connected to the mineralized water outlet 16. The first water quality detection component 72 can detect the water quality of the water body before entering the mineralized filter element 104, and the second water quality detection component 73 can detect the water quality of the water body output from the mineralized filter element 104. By comparing the results measured by the first water quality detection component 72 with the results measured by the second water quality detection component 73, the concentration of minerals entering the water body from the mineralized filter element 104 can be estimated, and then the mineral concentration of the mineralized water can be monitored, thereby improving the availability of the water system 1.

[0062] Specifically, the first water quality detection component 72 and the second water quality detection component 73 can be TDS (Total Dissolved Solids) water quality detection components. The TDS water quality detection component is a tool for quickly measuring the dissolved solids content in water. Dissolved ions in water increase the conductivity of water. By measuring the conductivity of water, the TDS water quality detection component can indirectly infer the TDS value of the water (in ppm or mg / L). After minerals dissolve into the water, the TDS value of the water will increase accordingly. By comparing the TDS values measured by the first water quality detection component 72 and the second water quality detection component 73, the mineral concentration of the mineralized water can be inferred and monitored.

[0063] See Figure 6 , Figure 6 Schematic diagram of the waterway structure of the sixth embodiment of the waterway system provided by the present application. In a specific embodiment of the present application, the waterway system 1 may further include a buffer chamber 7 and a third check valve 71 .

[0064] Optionally, the buffer chamber 7 can be connected to the mineralized water inlet 14, and the third check valve 71 can be connected to the mineralized water inlet 14 downstream of the buffer chamber 7. This allows the buffer chamber 7 to store a portion of the water output by the reverse osmosis filter element 103, and this portion of water is isolated from the water in the mineralized filter element 104 via the third check valve 71, preventing minerals from entering the buffer chamber 7. When the mineralized water is output, the water in the buffer chamber 7 mixes with the mineralized water output by the mineralized filter element 104, thereby reducing the mineral concentration of the water in the mineralized water outlet 16, reducing the probability that the mineral concentration of the mineralized water output by the water system 1 will be too high and affect the use effect, and thus improving the stability of the water system 1.

[0065] Optionally, the buffer chamber 7 may also be connected to the mineralized water outlet 16, and a third check valve 71 may be connected to the mineralized water outlet 16 upstream of the buffer chamber 7. This allows the buffer chamber 7 to store a portion of the water flowing through the mineralized filter element 104, and this portion of water is isolated from the water within the mineralized filter element 104 via the third check valve 71. When the mineralized filter element 104 is immersed, even if the mineral concentration of the water within the mineralized filter element 104 continues to increase until saturation, the presence of the third check valve 71 prevents the minerals within the mineralized filter element 104 from entering the buffer chamber 7 and the subsequent mineralized water outlet 16. This allows the mineral content of the water in the buffer chamber 7 and the subsequent mineralized water outlet 16 to remain low.

[0066] When outputting mineralized water to the outside, the water with lower mineral content in the buffer chamber 7 and the subsequent mineralized water outlet 16 is mixed with the water with higher mineral content output by the mineralized filter element 104, thereby reducing the mineral concentration of the water output from the mineralized water outlet 16, reducing the probability that the mineral concentration of the mineralized water output by the water system 1 is too high and affects the use effect, and improving the stability of the water system 1.

[0067] Optionally, see Figures 1 to 3 The water system 1 is further provided with a brine drainage path 8, which is used to connect the brine outlet of the reverse osmosis filter element 103 and the waste discharge channel. The water system 1 may include a wastewater valve 81, which is connected to the brine drainage path 8. By providing the brine drainage path 8, the brine remaining after the reverse osmosis filter element 103 filters out water with good water quality can be discharged. The brine contains a high concentration of soluble salts (such as calcium, magnesium, sodium), heavy metals (lead, arsenic), bacteria, viruses, and organic matter. Timely use of the brine drainage path 8 to discharge the brine can reduce the pollution caused by the brine remaining in the reverse osmosis filter element 103 to the reverse osmosis filter element 103, thereby extending the service life of the reverse osmosis filter element 103 to a certain extent and improving the stability of the water system 1.

[0068] The specific embodiment of the present application can also provide a mineral spring mineralization equipment, including at least one of a pre-filter element 101, a reverse osmosis filter element 103, a mineralization filter element 104, and a post-filter element 102, and a water system 1 as described in any of the above specific embodiments connected to at least one of the pre-filter element 101, the reverse osmosis filter element 103, the mineralization filter element 104, and the post-filter element 102.

[0069] In the structure provided in this specific embodiment, by providing a post-filter inlet 12 connected to the post-filter 102 and a reverse osmosis inlet 13 connected to the reverse osmosis filter 103 downstream of the pre-filter 101, the water filtered by the pre-filter 101 can be directly output through the pure water outlet 15 after being filtered by the post-filter 102. The water filtered twice by the pre-filter 101 and the post-filter 102 has good water quality and can meet most pure water usage needs except for direct drinking. In addition, the water filtered by the pre-filter can also be filtered by the reverse osmosis filter 103 and then input into the mineralization filter 104, so that water containing specific minerals can be output through the mineralization outlet 16, which can meet the demand for mineralized water.

[0070] The water system 1 of this specific embodiment sets different water channels to connect different filter elements according to different water needs, and can provide two water channels with different water quality, so that a single water system 1 can be used to adapt to diverse water quality needs, effectively improving the versatility of the mineral spring mineralization equipment equipped with the water system 1.
