Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of water purifiers, and in particular to a multi-stage reverse osmosis water purifier. Background Art
[0002] A water purifier is a water treatment device that deeply purifies water according to the requirements of water use. Its working principle is to introduce raw water into the filter cartridge. Under the action of pressure, water molecules and beneficial minerals flow out of the filter cartridge and undergo multi-stage filtration to become purified water, while harmful substances such as bacteria, colloids, rust, and suspended matter are trapped in the filter cartridge, thereby achieving the effect of filtration and purification. Existing water purifiers can basically meet daily usage needs, but there are still some shortcomings that need to be improved.

When the filter cartridge 3 is installed in the installation cavity 2, the first plug 14 is inserted from the inside of the filter cartridge 3 and extends out of the filter cartridge 3. The plug 14 should correspond to the upper end of the guide tube 13, and then the first plug 14 is connected to the upper end of the guide tube 13, and the filter cartridge 3 can be limited and fixed in the installation cavity 2; an equipment area is provided in the shell 1 corresponding to the lower end of the installation cavity 2, which is used to install devices such as a water pump, a wastewater combination valve, a water inlet solenoid valve and various conduits. The lower end of the filter cartridge 3 extends to the equipment area, and the third through hole 12 is also at the height of the equipment area. The hose 15 is connected to the guide tube 13 at one end in the equipment area, and the other end is connected to the side wall of the filter cartridge 3 at the height corresponding to the third through hole 12.
[0042] As a further preferred technical solution of this embodiment, the first plug 14 is movably arranged to penetrate the side wall of the filter cartridge 3, and the end thereof is detachably connected to the upper end of the guide tube 13. Specifically, the end of the first plug 14 extending out of the side wall of the filter cartridge 3 is provided with an external thread, and the inner wall of the upper end of the guide tube 13 is provided with a corresponding internal thread; when the filter cartridge 3 is removed or installed in the installation cavity 2, the filter element 7 is removed first, and then the first plug 14 can be operated to rotate from the filter cartridge 3 to connect or remove it with the guide tube 13.
[0043] As a further preferred technical solution of this embodiment, a fourth through hole 16 is provided on the lower side of the side wall of the filter cartridge 3, matching the third through hole 12. A second plug 17 is provided at the end of the hose 15 away from the flow guide tube 13, which is detachably connected to the fourth through hole 16. Specifically, the second plug 17 and the fourth through hole 16 can also be threaded, in which case the second plug 17 is rotatably connected to one end of the hose 15, or the second plug 17 and the fourth through hole 16 are plugged in with an interference fit, in which case the second plug 17 has a certain degree of elasticity. The above arrangement of the flow guide assembly satisfies the flow diversion requirements and does not hinder the removal and installation of the filter cartridge 3 within the installation cavity 2.
[0044] In another embodiment of the present invention, a cartridge cover 18 is provided at the upper end of the filter cartridge 3, and a driving assembly includes a knob 19 rotatably arranged on the cartridge cover 18, a pressure plate 20 is elastically movably provided on the lower side of the knob 19, and a synchronously rotating rotary block 21 is coaxially plugged into the upper end of the perforated core tube 6, and the pressure plate 20 is in damping contact with the rotary block 21. Specifically, the cartridge cover 18 is threadedly connected to the filter cartridge 3; the cartridge cover 18 is connected to the upper end portion of the filter cartridge 3 extending out of the mounting cavity 2; the knob 19 is coaxially rotatably connected to the center of the cartridge cover 18; a retraction cavity is provided at the lower side of the knob 19, and the upper end of the pressure plate 20 is movably connected to the retraction cavity through a telescopic rod 34. The telescopic rod 34 is a polygonal column, which satisfies the telescopic movement of the pressure plate 20 and enables the pressure plate 20 to rotate with the knob 19; the upper side of the pressure plate 20 is connected to the retraction cavity A spring is connected between the inner walls of the retraction chamber, thereby keeping the pressure plate 20 automatically extending out of the retraction chamber; when the cylinder cover 18 is tightened on the filter cartridge 3, the telescopic rod 34 contracts a certain length, and the pressure plate 20 maintains the elastic force to counteract the rotary block 21, and the pressure plate 20 is in damping contact with the rotary block 21, that is, when the pressure plate 20 rotates with the knob 19, the pressure plate 20 drives the rotary block 21 to rotate through friction damping, and then drives the perforated core tube 6 to rotate; the rotary block 21 includes a circular plate portion in contact with the pressure plate 20 and a plug-in portion for plugging into the perforated core tube 6. The plug-in portion is preferably in the shape of a polygonal column, and a socket matching the plug-in portion is provided at the upper end of the perforated core tube 6, thereby meeting the needs of torque transmission and disassembly. The detachable rotary block 21 facilitates the installation and disassembly of the filter element 7 on the perforated core tube 6. Furthermore, the rotation range of the rotating member 8 in the filter cartridge 3 is limited. Specifically, a positioning block 35 is provided on the outer wall of the rotating member 8 away from the fourth through hole 16, and a positioning groove 36 matching the positioning block 35 is provided on the inner wall of the filter cartridge 3. The positioning block 35 only slides in the positioning groove 36 to limit the rotation range of the rotating member 8 to 30°-90°. At both ends of this range, the first through hole 10 and the second through hole 11 are fully connected, and the third through hole 12 and the fourth through hole 16 are fully connected, respectively.
[0045] In another embodiment proposed by the present invention, the inner wall of the filter cartridge 3 is rotatably connected to a plurality of guide plates 22 evenly arranged around the circumference, and the plurality of guide plates 22 rotate synchronously and divide the space between the filter cartridge 3 and the filter element 7 into an upper and lower area. Specifically, the plurality of guide plates 22 divide the space between the filter cartridge 3 and the filter element 7 into an upper and lower area. When the water flow introduced by the liquid inlet 5 enters the filter cartridge 3 from the lower side, part of the water flow flows upward through the guide plates 22, which can push the guide plates 22 to rotate upward; when the water flow introduced by the liquid inlet 5 enters the filter cartridge 3 from the upper side, the water flow flows downward through the guide plates 22, which pushes the guide plates 22 to rotate downward; the provision of the guide plates 22 ensures that the water flow flows more concentratedly in the designated area, further satisfying the function of fully utilizing the filter element 7.
[0046] As the preferred technical solution of this embodiment, a rotating groove 23 is provided in the side wall entity of the filter cartridge 3, and a gear ring 24 is rotatably provided in the rotating groove 23. The lower side of the gear ring 24 is meshed with a bevel gear 25 coaxially connected to the rotating shaft of the guide vane 22, and a slider 26 is fixedly provided on the upper side of the gear ring 24. A slide groove 27 matching the slider 26 is provided in the side wall entity of the filter cartridge 3, and an elastic member 28 that hinders the movement of one side of the slider 26 is provided in the slide groove 27. Specifically, the rotating groove 23 is sleeved on the outside of the internal space of the filter cartridge 3; the gear ring 24 is meshed with each bevel gear 25 to realize the synchronous rotation of each guide vane 22; the elastic member 28 can preferably be a spring, and the elastic member 28 The movement direction of the obstruction slider 26 corresponds to: when the guide plate 22 rotates upward, the movement direction of the slider 26 is transmitted, and the movement direction of the other side of the slider 26 is not affected. The range of movement of the slider 26 in the slide groove 27 limits the range of upward or downward rotation of the guide plate 22 to no more than 90°; the elastic member 28 has an obstructing effect on the slider 26, that is, it obstructs the guide plate 22 from rotating upward, thereby causing, when the water flow introduced by the liquid inlet 5 enters the filter cartridge 3 from the lower side, after a period of time, the lower half of the filter element 7 is consumed to a certain extent, and blockage occurs, then the water flow passing through the guide plate 22 upward increases, and only then can the guide plate 22 obstructed by the elastic force be pushed.
[0047] As a preferred technical solution of this embodiment, the cylinder cover 18 and the knob 19 are connected by a coil spring 29. A limit assembly for limiting the rotation of the limit knob 19 is provided in the cylinder cover 18. The limit assembly cancels the limit action and is linked to the activity of the slider 26. Specifically, the cooperation between the coil spring 29 and the limit assembly enables the knob 19 to store the potential energy of the rotation trend. Before the cylinder cover 18 is installed, the knob 19 stores the rotation potential energy and is limited by the limit assembly. During the installation process of the cylinder cover 18, the knob 19 is fixed relative to the cylinder cover 18, and the cylinder cover 18 rotates clockwise. Dynamic installation, as the cylinder cover 18 is tightened, the pressure plate 20 contacts the rotary block 21 and generates friction damping. At this time, the pressure plate 20 prompts the rotary block 21 to rotate in the direction that just drives the perforated core tube 6 and the rotating member 8 to rotate, so that the first through hole 10 and the second through hole 11 gradually correspond or remain corresponding, and the third through hole 12 and the fourth through hole 16 gradually stagger or remain staggered, until the cylinder cover 18 is tightened. Under the damping between the pressure plate 20 and the rotary block 21, the first through hole 10 and the second through hole 11 are completely corresponding, and the third through hole 12 and the fourth through hole 16 are completely corresponding. 6 is completely staggered; at this time, the rotational potential energy stored in the knob 19 is just opposite to the rotation direction of the cylinder cover 18 when it is installed, and then when the slider 26 moves to trigger the limit assembly to cancel the limit, the rotation of the knob 19 relative to the cylinder cover 18 can drive the rotating member 8 to rotate through the pressure plate 20, the rotary block 21, and the perforated core tube 6, so that the first through hole 10 and the second through hole 11 are completely staggered, and the third through hole 12 is completely corresponding to the fourth through hole 16; the activity direction of the slider 26 triggering the limit assembly to cancel the limit corresponds to the slider 26 compressing the elastic member 2 8, that is, the guide plate 22 rotates upward to a certain extent. That is to say, the water flow introduced at the liquid inlet 5 enters from the lower side of the filter cartridge 3 and after a period of use, the lower half of the filter element 7 is consumed to a certain extent, causing blockage. The water flow passing through the guide plate 22 upward increases to a certain extent to satisfy the guide plate 22 pushing upward to a certain angle, thereby triggering the movement of the slider 26, and then triggering the limit component to cancel the limit function, thereby realizing automatic control of the switching of the water flow introduction position according to the blockage of the lower part of the filter element 7.
[0048] As the preferred technical solution of this embodiment, the limit assembly includes a limit column 30 that is movably arranged on the cylinder cover 18, a card plate 31 is fixedly provided on the side wall of the knob 19, and a movable groove 32 that matches the card plate 31 is provided in the cylinder cover 18. The limit column 30 passes through the movable groove 32 to be in the movable stroke of the card plate 31, and a notch 33 that matches the card plate 31 is provided on the limit column 30. When the slider 26 moves to compress the elastic member 28 to a certain extent, the limit column 30 rises in conjunction with the notch 33 to correspond to the height of the card plate 31. Specifically, the upper and lower ends of the limit column 30 are provided with a column that movably passes through the cylinder cover 18, and the limit column 30 does not rotate; the card plate 31 is movable The movable range within the groove 32 corresponds to the rotation range of the rotating member 8; when the notch 33 on the limiting post 30 does not correspond to the height of the movable groove 32, one side of the card plate 31 abuts against the limiting post 30 to be limited, and at this time, the knob 19 stores rotational potential energy; and when the notch 33 on the limiting post 30 corresponds to the movable groove 32, the rotational potential energy of the knob 19 can be released, and the knob 19 drives the card plate 31 to rotate, and the edge of the card plate 31 can move smoothly through the notch 33. In addition, the card plate 31 is embedded in the notch 33, which actually limits the height of the limiting post 30. The upper end column of the limiting post 30 remains extended out of the barrel cover 18 to serve as a reminder, and the user can use this to judge that the life of the filter element 7 is less than half. Furthermore, a concave annular groove 37 is physically provided at the upper end of the filter cartridge 3. When the cartridge cover 18 is tightened and the limiting post 30 is kept at the lowest height to limit the card plate 31, the lower end of the limiting post 30 extends into the concave annular groove 37; a ring body 38 is provided in the concave annular groove 37 for lifting and lowering, and the ring body 38 corresponds to the lower end of the limiting post 30. A push rod 39 is fixedly provided at the lower end of the ring body 38, and a slope block 40 is provided at the upper end of the slider 26. The lower end of the push rod 39 is movably extended into the rotating groove 23 and wedge-fits with the slope block 40; in actual use, the guide plate 22 is pushed by the upward flowing water flow to rotate upward, and then the slider 26 is linked to squeeze the elastic member 28 to move. When the slider 26 moves in this direction After moving to a certain distance, that is, through the wedge-shaped extrusion of the slope block 40 and the lower end of the push rod 39, the push rod 39 drives the ring body 38 to rise, and the ring body 38 pushes the limit column 30 to rise, so that the height of the notch 33 corresponds to the movable groove 32, thereby canceling the limit of the card plate 31, and the rotational potential energy of the knob 19 is released. The water flow guide of the liquid inlet 5 is switched from the lower side of the filter cartridge 3 to the upper side of the filter cartridge 3. Then, the filter element 7 can be fully utilized, and the influence of the corresponding water flow rate caused by the blockage of the lower end of the filter element 7 is reduced; in addition, the water flow in this direction mainly flows downward, and the obstruction of the guide plate 22 to the downward flowing water flow is not affected by the elastic member 28, so that the lower part of the filter element 7 can also be fully utilized.
[0049] In addition, forming a rotating groove 23 and a sliding groove 27 in the wall of the filter cartridge 3 and using them to assemble linkage components such as the gear ring 24, the bevel gear 25, and the slider 26 is not a conventional setting. In order to facilitate assembly, the filter cartridge 3 preferably adopts a segmented structure, that is, it includes an upper tube 301 and a lower tube 302, wherein the outer wall of the lower tube 302 is processed to form groove-type and hole-type structures such as the rotating groove 23 and the sliding groove 27. After the components are assembled on the outer wall of the lower tube 302, the upper tube 301 is threadedly installed on the lower tube 302, thereby facilitating assembly. Furthermore, a hole is opened on the inner wall of the lower tube 302 and sealed after the parts are assembled, and the joint between the upper tube 301 and the lower tube 302 is also threaded and sealed.
