Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the technical field of showers, and in particular to a disinfection shower. Background Technology
[0002] In the fields of medical care, daily health maintenance, and special scene cleaning, decontamination showers, as devices that can prepare functional medicinal solutions and spray them onto the body, are increasingly widely used. Their core requirement is to mix functional powders with water to form a uniform medicinal solution, achieving skin cleansing, soothing, or localized conditioning effects through spraying. Traditional decontamination showers can only achieve single-stage mixing; the powder and water mix to form a solution through a single contact. When using such showers to mix certain special powders, such as highly hygroscopic traditional Chinese medicine extracts and easily agglomerated electrolyte powders, these powders are difficult to disperse in water. Due to the difference in affinity between pure water and the powder, they easily form clumps that are wet on the outside and dry on the inside. Undissolved powder particles or clumps can easily clog the nozzle or cause irritation to the skin due to excessively high local concentrations when sprayed.
[0003] Therefore, ensuring that the powder and water are thoroughly mixed is an urgent problem to be solved. Summary of the Invention
[0004] To ensure that the powder and water are thoroughly mixed, this application provides a disinfection shower.
[0005] The disinfection shower provided in this application adopts the following technical solution: A disinfection shower includes a first tank and a second tank disposed within the first tank. The second tank has a liquid outlet. The first tank is provided with an inlet pipe, a medicine inlet pipe, a return inlet pipe, an outlet pipe, and a return outlet pipe. The medicine inlet pipe and the return inlet pipe are both connected to the interior of the second tank, and the outlet pipe and the return outlet pipe are both connected to the interior of the first tank. The outlet pipe is connected to a spray device, and the return inlet pipe and the return outlet pipe are both connected to a return device.
[0006] By adopting the above technical solution, water is injected into the first tank through the inlet pipe. The water then flows into the second tank through the return outlet pipe, return device, and return inlet pipe. Simultaneously, the medicine powder is added into the second tank through the inlet pipe. At this point, the water and medicine powder complete the first mixing. The medicine solution then flows into the first tank through the liquid outlet. Part of the medicine solution flows into the spraying device for use through the outlet pipe, while the remaining medicine solution flows back into the second tank through the return outlet pipe, return device, and return inlet pipe to continue mixing with the medicine. This completes the second mixing of the medicine solution and medicine powder, resulting in a more uniform mixture. In this application, on the one hand, any clumps that may form may exist in the second tank, making it difficult for the clumps to reach the first tank and subsequently flow to the spraying device. On the other hand, the returning medicine solution continuously washes away the clumps, dispersing them. This application ensures thorough mixing of the medicine powder and water.
[0007] Preferably, the second tank body includes a tank body connected to the first tank body and a base body connected to the bottom end of the tank body, and multiple liquid flow holes are provided and densely distributed on the tank body.
[0008] By adopting the above technical solution, any clumps that may form will be supported on the base, and the medicine mixed in the second tank will reach the first tank through multiple liquid outlets. This structure can prevent clumps from blocking the liquid outlets as much as possible.
[0009] Preferably, the base includes a tube connected to the tank body and a base plate connected to the tube body, the diameter of the tube body gradually decreases in the direction away from the tank body, and the port of the return pipe away from the return device faces the tube body.
[0010] By adopting the above technical solution, since the diameter of the tube is gradually changed, the liquid medicine or water sprayed from the return pipe towards the tube can better disperse the clumps remaining on the bottom plate, thereby making the powder evenly dispersed.
[0011] Preferably, the outer wall of the tank body is provided with a shell, and a transfer interlayer is formed between the shell and the tank body. The shell has a first liquid inlet hole, and the tank body has a second liquid inlet hole. The second liquid inlet hole is located on the side of the plurality of liquid outlet holes away from the base. The interior of the first tank body is connected to the interior of the second tank body through the first liquid inlet hole and the second liquid inlet hole. The liquid inlet pipe includes a first sub-pipe and a second sub-pipe. The first sub-pipe faces the interior of the first tank body, and the second sub-pipe faces the first liquid inlet hole.
[0012] Preferably, there are multiple second liquid inlet holes, which are evenly distributed along the circumference of the tank body.
[0013] By adopting the above technical solution, when water is injected into sub-tube one and sub-tube two, some water will reach the inside of the first tank, and another part of water will reach the transfer jacket through the first liquid inlet hole and then reach the inside of the second tank through multiple second liquid inlet holes. The water will flow along the wall of the tank and through multiple liquid outlet holes. This water will try to prevent the powder from adhering to the liquid outlet holes.
[0014] Preferably, the spraying device includes a frame, on which a lifting drive is provided, the lifting drive is connected to a spraying component, the spraying component is also connected to a liquid outlet pipe, and an opening and closing component is installed on the liquid outlet pipe.
[0015] By adopting the above technical solution, the driving lifting component can drive the spray component to rise and fall to adjust the spray height, and the opening and closing component can close the liquid outlet pipe. The liquid can be released by opening the liquid outlet pipe after the powder and water are fully mixed.
[0016] Preferably, the reflux device includes a liquid flow pipe, one end of which is connected to a reflux inlet pipe and the other end of which is connected to a reflux outlet pipe, and a liquid conveying power component is installed on the liquid flow pipe.
[0017] By adopting the above technical solution, the circulation of liquid can be guaranteed based on the liquid transport power component.
[0018] Preferably, it includes a basin located on one side of the spray device.
[0019] By adopting the above technical solution, the user is positioned inside the basin and is sprayed with medicinal liquid by the spraying device for self-cleaning, which facilitates the collection of medicinal liquid.
[0020] Preferably, the inlet tube is detachably fitted with an inlet funnel.
[0021] In summary, the present invention has at least one of the following beneficial technical effects: 1. Water is injected into the first tank through the inlet pipe. The water then flows into the second tank through the return outlet pipe, return device, and return inlet pipe. Simultaneously, the medicine powder is added into the second tank through the inlet pipe. At this point, the water and medicine powder undergo their first mixing. The medicine solution then flows through the liquid outlet to the first tank. Part of the solution flows through the outlet pipe to the spray device for use, while the remaining solution flows back into the second tank through the return outlet pipe, return device, and return inlet pipe to continue mixing with the medicine. This second mixing process ensures a more uniform mixture. In this application, on the one hand, any clumps that may form may exist in the second tank, making it difficult for them to reach the first tank and subsequently flow to the spray device. On the other hand, the returning medicine solution continuously washes away any clumps, dispersing them. This application ensures thorough mixing of the medicine powder and water. 2. On the one hand, any clumps that may form will be supported on the base. The medicine mixed in the second tank will reach the first tank through multiple liquid outlets. Furthermore, due to the gradually changing diameter of the tube, the medicine or water sprayed from the return pipe towards the opposite tube can better disperse the clumps remaining on the bottom plate, thus ensuring that the medicine powder is evenly dispersed. This structure can minimize the risk of clumps clogging the liquid outlets. On the other hand, when water is injected into the first and second sub-tubes, some water will reach the inside of the first tank, while another portion will reach the transfer interlayer through the first liquid inlet and subsequently reach the inside of the second tank through multiple second liquid inlet holes. The water will flow along the tank wall and through multiple liquid outlets. This water can further prevent medicine powder from adhering to the liquid outlets and clogging them. 3. The driving lifting component can drive the spray component to rise and fall to adjust the spray height. The opening and closing component can close the liquid outlet pipe. The liquid can be released by opening the liquid outlet pipe after the powder and water are fully mixed. Attached Figure Description

[0024] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0025] In the description of this invention, it should be understood that the orientation descriptions, such as up, down, front, back, left, right, etc., are based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings. They are only for the convenience of describing this invention and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limiting this invention.
[0026] This application discloses a disinfection shower device. It is used to ensure that the powder and water are thoroughly mixed.
[0027] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 The disinfection shower includes a first tank 1 and a second tank 2 located inside the first tank 1. The second tank 2 has a liquid outlet 21. The upper end of the first tank 1 is provided with an inlet pipe 11, a medicine inlet pipe 12 and a return inlet pipe 13. The lower end of the first tank 1 is provided with an outlet pipe 22 and a return outlet pipe 23. The medicine inlet pipe 12 and the return inlet pipe 13 are both connected to the inside of the second tank 2. The outlet pipe 22 and the return outlet pipe 23 are both connected to the inside of the first tank 1. The medicine inlet pipe 12 is detachably inserted with a medicine inlet funnel 121. The outlet pipe 22 is connected to a spray device 3. The return inlet pipe 13 and the return outlet pipe 23 are both connected to a return device 4.
[0028] Reference Figure 3 The second tank 2 includes a tank body 24 connected to the first tank 1 and a base 25 connected to the bottom of the tank body 24. The tank body 24 is vertically arranged, and multiple liquid outlet holes 21 are provided and densely arranged on the tank body 24. The interior of the tank body 24 is connected to the interior of the first tank 1 through the multiple liquid outlet holes 21.
[0029] Reference Figure 3 Specifically, the base 25 includes a vertically arranged tube 251 connected to the tank body 24 and a bottom plate 252 connected to the bottom end of the tube 251. The bottom plate 252 closes the lower end of the tube 251. The diameter of the tube 251 gradually decreases in the direction away from the tank body 24. The end of the return pipe 13 away from the return device 4 extends downward into the tank body 24 and faces the tube 251.
[0030] Water is injected into the first tank 1 through the inlet pipe 11. The water then flows into the second tank 2 through the return outlet pipe 23, the return device 4, and the return inlet pipe 13. At the same time, the medicine powder is added into the second tank 2 through the medicine inlet pipe 12. At this time, the water and medicine powder will complete the first mixing. The medicine solution will reach the first tank 1 through multiple liquid outlet holes 21. At this time, there may be clumps remaining in the second tank 2 and settling onto the base 25. Afterward, some of the medicine solution will reach the spray device 3 through the outlet pipe 22 for use, while some of the medicine solution will enter the second tank 2 again through the return outlet pipe 23, the return device 4, and the return inlet pipe 13 to continue mixing with the medicine powder. At this time, the medicine solution and medicine powder will complete the second mixing, making the medicine solution more evenly mixed.
[0031] In this application, on the one hand, the clumps that may form may exist in the second tank 2. The clumps will be blocked by the liquid flow hole 21, making it difficult for the clumps to reach the first tank 1 and subsequently flow to the spray device 3. On the other hand, the backflowing liquid will continuously wash away the clumps, causing them to disperse.
[0032] The two mixing processes in this application effectively circulate and agitate the powder and water, reducing localized uneven concentrations. Furthermore, since the secondary mixing and the flow of the medicine to the spray device 3 can occur simultaneously, both effective mixing and stable medicine supply are ensured. This medicine reflux mechanism maintains a dynamic balance within the first tank 1, preventing excessive fluctuations in the liquid level due to external supply and guaranteeing stable supply pressure and flow rate. Finally, the dynamic environment created by the circulating flow keeps the medicine constantly flowing, preventing denser portions from settling at the bottom of the first tank 1 due to gravity.
[0033] Furthermore, when the water inlet speed and the powder inlet speed fluctuate, the recirculation and secondary mixing method of this application can avoid sudden changes in the concentration of the supplied solution, which can ensure the consistency of the spraying experience of the spraying device 3.
[0034] For some medicinal powders, such as traditional Chinese medicine extract powder and some electrolyte powders, pure water can easily form dense clumps when in direct contact with the powder, making it difficult for water to penetrate into the clumps. In this application, the powder clumps are washed away by the already preliminarily formed medicinal solution. Since the osmotic pressure of the medicinal solution, which has dissolved some of the powder, is closer to that of the clumps, it can slowly penetrate and soften the hard shell. At this point, the flow of water can quickly break the clumps into fine particles.
[0035] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 4The outer wall of the tank body 24 near the top of the first tank body 1 is provided with an annular shell 5. A transfer interlayer 51 is formed between the shell 5 and the tank body 24. The shell 5 has a first liquid inlet hole 52, which is used to connect the interior of the first tank body 1 and the transfer interlayer 51. The tank body 24 has multiple second liquid inlet holes 241, which are evenly distributed along the circumference of the tank body 24. The second liquid inlet holes 241 are used to connect the transfer interlayer 51 and the interior of the second tank body 2. Therefore, the interior of the first tank body 1 is connected to the interior of the second tank body 2 through the first liquid inlet hole 52 and the second liquid inlet hole 241. The second liquid inlet hole 241 is located on the side of the multiple liquid outlet holes 21 away from the base body 25. The liquid inlet pipe 11 includes a sub-pipe 111 connected to the bottom of the first tank 1 and a sub-pipe 112 connected to the sub-pipe 111. The sub-pipe 111 is arranged vertically and the sub-pipe 112 is arranged horizontally. The sub-pipe 111 faces the inside of the first tank 1 and the sub-pipe 112 faces the first liquid inlet hole 52.
[0036] When water is injected into sub-tube 111 and sub-tube 212, some water will reach the inside of the first tank 1, and the other part of water will reach the transfer jacket 51 through the first liquid inlet hole 52 and then reach the inside of the second tank 2 through multiple second liquid inlet holes 241. The water will flow relatively evenly along the circumferential wall of the tank body 24 and through multiple liquid outlet holes 21. This water will try to prevent the powder from adhering to the liquid outlet holes 21, thereby preventing the liquid outlet holes 21 from being blocked.
[0037] Reference Figure 1 The spraying device 3 includes a frame 31, on which casters are mounted. A lifting drive 32 is also mounted on the frame 31. The lifting drive 32 can be, for example, a linear motion module or a belt conveyor mechanism. The lifting drive 32 is connected to a spraying component 33, and can drive the spraying component 33 to rise and fall. Figure 3 The spray element 33 is also connected to the liquid outlet pipe 22, which is equipped with an opening and closing element 34 and a liquid pump 332. The liquid pump 332 is used to provide power for the liquid in the liquid outlet pipe 22, and the opening and closing element 34 is, for example, a valve.
[0038] Reference Figure 5 The spray component 33 includes a base 331 that is slidably connected to the frame 31. A liquid passage pipe communicating with the liquid outlet pipe 22 is installed on the base 331. The liquid passage pipe is not shown in part in the figure. Multiple spray heads 333 for liquid outlet are installed on the liquid passage pipe. The specific structure of the spray head 333 is prior art and will not be described in detail here.
[0039] Reference Figure 5 and combined Figure 1 In order to facilitate the user being sprayed with disinfectant and to collect the disinfectant, the disinfection shower also includes a basin 6 located below the spray head 333.
[0040] Reference Figure 2 The reflux device 4 includes a liquid flow pipe, which is not shown in the figure. One end of the liquid flow pipe is connected to the reflux inlet pipe 13, and the other end is connected to the reflux outlet pipe 23. A liquid conveying power component 41 is installed on the liquid flow pipe, such as a booster pump.
[0041] The implementation principle of the disinfection shower in this embodiment is as follows: Water is injected into the first tank 1 through the inlet pipe 11. The water then flows into the second tank 2 through the return outlet pipe 23, the return device 4, and the return inlet pipe 13. At the same time, the medicine powder is added into the second tank 2 through the medicine inlet pipe 12. At this time, the water and medicine powder will complete the first mixing. The medicine solution will reach the first tank 1 through multiple liquid outlet holes 21. At this time, there may be clumps remaining in the second tank 2 and settling onto the base 25. Afterward, some of the medicine solution will reach the spray device 3 through the outlet pipe 22 for use, while some of the medicine solution will enter the second tank 2 again through the return outlet pipe 23, the return device 4, and the return inlet pipe 13 to continue mixing with the medicine powder. At this time, the medicine solution and medicine powder will complete the second mixing to make the medicine solution more uniform.
[0042] The embodiments described herein are preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present invention. Therefore, all equivalent changes made in accordance with the structure, shape, and principle of the present invention should be covered within the scope of protection of the present invention.
