Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of bathroom technology, and in particular to a microbubble water preparation mechanism and its usage method. Background Technology
[0002] With the development of smart home technology, smart toilets, equipped with personalized cleaning functions such as bidet and feminine wash, have become an important piece of equipment in modern bathrooms. Compared to the traditional wiping cleaning method of toilets, smart toilets achieve cleaning through warm water rinsing, which not only significantly improves the thoroughness of cleaning but also effectively enhances comfort and hygiene during use. They are particularly suitable for the physiological needs of different groups such as the elderly, children, and women, greatly improving the user experience.
[0003] To further enhance cleaning capabilities and optimize the flushing experience, the industry has gradually developed a technical solution that incorporates microbubble water into the connection channels between the bidet and feminine wash functions. The core idea of this solution is to utilize the impact of microbubbles to enhance the water flow's ability to remove dirt, while simultaneously using the buffering effect of microbubble bursts to reduce the irritation to the skin from direct water jets. This further improves cleaning efficiency and user comfort on top of the existing cleaning functions, becoming the mainstream optimization direction for the cleaning functions of current smart toilets.
[0004] However, existing smart toilets that use microbubble water for cleaning still have significant technical shortcomings: the microbubble water in existing devices typically adopts an "instant preparation and instant use" model, meaning that the microbubble water preparation process is only initiated when the user triggers the cleaning function. Because the preparation of microbubble water involves a series of processes such as aeration, pressurization, dissolution, and precipitation, there is an unavoidable response delay.
[0005] Therefore, it is urgent to improve existing technologies to overcome the technical pain point of unstable microbubble water supply.
[0006] In view of this, the inventors of this invention devised this invention. Summary of the Invention
[0007] The purpose of this invention is to provide a microbubble water preparation mechanism and its usage method, which can improve the stability of microbubble water supply.
[0008] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following solution: A microbubble water preparation mechanism, comprising: Water source; A microbubble water preparation device, connected to the water source, is used to prepare microbubble water; A microbubble water storage device, connected to the microbubble water preparation device, is used to store the microbubble water; Application components are connected to the microbubble water storage device; A controller that controls the microbubble water preparation device to operate or stop, or controls the application components to operate or stop; The controller is communicatively connected to both the signal generation module and the microbubble water preparation device. The signal generation module can send out corresponding signals, and the controller controls the operation or stop of the microbubble water preparation device according to the received corresponding signals.
[0009] In some embodiments, the signal generation module includes a human body sensing module, and the controller is communicatively connected to the human body sensing module and the microbubble water preparation device. The human body sensing module senses human body state information and sends a corresponding signal. The controller controls the operation or stop of the microbubble water preparation device according to the received signal. Alternatively, the signal generation module includes a timing device, and the controller is communicatively connected to the timing device and the microbubble water preparation device. The timing device sends a corresponding signal according to the timing, and the controller controls the operation or stop of the microbubble water preparation device according to the received signal.
[0010] In some embodiments, a microbubble water preparation device further includes a circulating water path, wherein the microbubble water storage device is connected to the water source, and the water in the microbubble water storage device is returned to the microbubble water storage device after being generated into microbubble water by the microbubble water preparation device.
[0011] In some embodiments, the human body sensing module is a seat ring sensor, radar sensor, capacitive sensor, infrared sensor, or human body image recognition camera. When the human body sensing module senses a human body, the controller controls the microbubble water preparation device to operate. When the human body sensing module senses a human body leaving, the controller controls the microbubble water preparation device to stop. Sensed human body means a human body enters the sensing module's recognition range, sits down, or remains within the sensing module's recognition range for a period of time. Sensed human body leaving means a human body leaves the sensing module's recognition range, gets off the seat, or the sensing module does not sense a human body for a period of time.
[0012] In some embodiments, a microbubble water preparation mechanism further includes a remote controller for sending signals. The controller controls the operation or shutdown of the application components based on the signals from the remote controller and / or the signal generation module. The application components include a rinsing device and / or a cleaning device.
[0013] In some embodiments, the microbubble water preparation device includes a water supply component, a mixing component, an aeration component, and a pressurizing component. The water supply component is connected to a water source and the mixing component. The outlet of the aeration component is connected to the mixing component. The pressurizing component is connected to the mixing component and the microbubble water storage device. Water from the water source enters the mixing component through the water supply component, and gas from the aeration component enters the mixing component. The water and gas form a gas-liquid mixture, which then forms microbubble water after passing through the pressurizing component. The water supply component is a water pump or a solenoid valve, the aeration component is an air pump or an air intake component, and the pressurizing component is a water pump. The pressurizing component fully integrates the gas-liquid mixture and generates microbubble water through high pressure.
[0014] In some embodiments, a microbubble water preparation mechanism further includes a throttling device, which is connected to the outlet of the pressurizing device, or both ends of the throttling device are connected to the inlet of the microbubble water storage device and the outlet of the pressurizing device via flexible hoses, or the throttling device is fixed to the inlet of the microbubble water storage device, or the throttling device is fixed to the outlet of the microbubble water storage device.
[0015] A method of using a microbubble water preparation mechanism includes the following steps: S1. When the human body sensor detects a human body, the human body sensor will send an activation signal; or the timing device will send an activation signal after timing for a first preset time; S2. When the controller receives the start signal, it will control the microbubble water preparation device to start running according to the preset program; S3. When the human body sensor does not detect a human body, the human body sensor will send a shutdown signal; or the timing device will send a shutdown signal after timing for a second preset time; S4. When the controller receives a shutdown signal or the total running time of the microbubble water preparation device exceeds the total preset time, the controller will control the microbubble water preparation device to stop running.
[0016] In some embodiments, a method of using a microbubble water preparation device includes, after the microbubble water preparation device starts operating, the controller can also control the application components to run or stop according to the signal from the remote controller; and / or when the human body sensor or the timing device sends a shutdown signal, the controller controls the flushing device to run or stop according to a preset program.
[0017] In some embodiments, the controller can also control the power of the microbubble water preparation device. When the microbubble water preparation device starts to run, the controller controls the microbubble water preparation device to run at a first power until the human body sensing module senses that a human body has left, at which point the microbubble water preparation device stops running, or the microbubble water preparation device stops running after running at the first power for a first preset time.
[0018] In some embodiments, the controller can also control the power of the microbubble water preparation device. After the microbubble water preparation device starts running, the controller controls the microbubble water preparation device to run at a first power for a first preset time; then controls the microbubble water preparation device to run at a second power until the microbubble water preparation device stops running; the first power is greater than the second power.
[0019] In some embodiments, the controller can also control the power of the microbubble water preparation device, and step S2 includes the following steps: S21. After the microbubble water preparation device starts running, the controller controls the microbubble water preparation device to run at a first power for a first preset time; S22. Control the microbubble water preparation device to pause for a second preset time or run at a second power for a second preset time; S23. Control the microbubble water preparation device to operate at a first power for a third preset time or at a second power for a third preset time; S24. Repeat steps S22 and S23 to maintain the microbubble concentration in the microbubble water storage device at a preset value; Wherein, the first power is greater than the second power.
[0020] As can be seen from the above technical solution, this invention, through the coordinated design of a water source, a microbubble water preparation device, a microbubble water storage device, application components, a controller, and a signal generation module, breaks the original instant preparation and instant use mode. Microbubble water can be prepared in advance and stored for later use. When a user triggers a usage demand, the application components can directly retrieve microbubble water from the microbubble water storage device without waiting for the preparation process, thus eliminating the response delay problem caused by preparation at its source. Simultaneously, the signal generation module can send corresponding signals, and the controller controls the operation or stop of the microbubble water preparation device based on the received signals, realizing on-demand replenishment of microbubble water. This ensures that the microbubble water storage device always maintains a sufficient reserve of microbubble water, avoiding supply interruptions caused by insufficient storage. This dual guarantee of advance storage and intelligent replenishment effectively improves the stability and continuity of microbubble water supply. Attached Figure Description

[0040] Exemplary embodiments will now be described more fully with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, these exemplary embodiments can be implemented in many forms and should not be construed as limited to the examples set forth herein; rather, they are provided so that this disclosure will be more comprehensive and complete, and will fully convey the concept of the exemplary embodiments to those skilled in the art. The described features, structures, or characteristics may be combined in any suitable manner in one or more embodiments.
[0041] Furthermore, the accompanying drawings are merely illustrative of this disclosure and are not necessarily drawn to scale. The same reference numerals in the drawings denote the same or similar parts, and therefore repeated descriptions of them will be omitted. Some block diagrams shown in the drawings are functional entities and do not necessarily correspond to physically or logically independent entities. These functional entities may be implemented in software, in one or more hardware modules or integrated circuits, or in different network and / or processor devices and / or microcontroller devices.
[0042] Reference Figures 1-10 As shown, this invention discloses a microbubble water preparation mechanism, comprising: Water source 4; The microbubble water preparation device 2 is connected to the water source 4 and is used to prepare microbubble water. The microbubble water storage device 1 is connected to the microbubble water preparation device 2 and is used to store the microbubble water. Application component 5 is connected to the microbubble water storage device 1; The controller controls the microbubble water preparation device 2 to operate or stop, or controls the application component 5 to operate or stop; The controller is communicatively connected to the signal generation module and the microbubble water preparation device 2. The signal generation module can send out corresponding signals, and the controller controls the operation or stop of the microbubble water preparation device 2 according to the received corresponding signals.
[0043] Therefore, this invention, through the coordinated design of water source 4, microbubble water preparation device 2, microbubble water storage device 1, application component 5, controller, and signal generation module, breaks the original instant preparation and instant use mode. Microbubble water can be prepared in advance and stored for later use. When the user triggers the need for use, application component 5 can directly retrieve microbubble water from microbubble water storage device 1 without waiting for the preparation process, thus eliminating the response delay problem caused by preparation at the source. At the same time, the signal generation module can send corresponding signals, and the controller controls the operation or stop of microbubble water preparation device 2 according to the received corresponding signals, realizing on-demand replenishment of microbubble water and ensuring that microbubble water storage device 1 always maintains a sufficient reserve of microbubble water, avoiding supply interruption caused by insufficient storage. It forms a double guarantee from the aspects of advance storage and intelligent replenishment, effectively improving the stability and continuity of microbubble water supply.
[0044] In one embodiment, the signal generation module includes a human body sensing module. The controller is communicatively connected to the human body sensing module and the microbubble water preparation device 2. The human body sensing module senses human body status information and sends out corresponding signals. The controller controls the operation or stop of the microbubble water preparation device 2 according to the received signals. Thus, the human body sensing module can realize "start when a person comes and stop when a person leaves", avoiding ineffective preparation when no one is present, saving energy and reducing water waste.
[0045] Furthermore, the human body sensing module can be any one of a seat ring sensor, radar sensor, capacitive sensor, infrared sensor, or human body image recognition camera. When the human body sensing module senses a human body, the controller controls the microbubble water preparation device 2 to operate. When the human body sensing module senses a human body leaving, the controller controls the microbubble water preparation device 2 to stop. Sensed human body means that a human body enters the sensing module's recognition range, sits down, or remains within the sensing module's recognition range for a period of time. Sensed human body leaving means that a human body leaves the sensing module's recognition range, gets off the seat, or the sensing module does not sense a human body for a period of time.
[0046] Alternatively, in another embodiment, the signal generation module includes a timing device, and the controller is communicatively connected to both the timing device and the microbubble water preparation device 2. The timing device sends a corresponding signal based on the timing, and the controller controls the operation or shutdown of the microbubble water preparation device 2 based on the received signal. The timing device enables timed preparation, facilitating the pre-stocking of sufficient microbubble water to meet centralized usage needs, further enhancing the adaptability and intelligence of the device. The signal generation module can also send a corresponding signal based on the amount of microbubble water stored in the microbubble water storage device 1.
[0047] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 7 As shown, the microbubble water preparation mechanism of the present invention further includes a circulating water path. The microbubble water storage device 1 is connected to the water source 4. The water in the microbubble water storage device 1 is returned to the microbubble water storage device 1 after being generated into microbubble water by the microbubble water preparation device 2. Thus, the design of the circulating water path can realize the cyclical preparation of microbubble water. When the concentration of microbubble water in the microbubble water storage device 1 is insufficient, there is no need to replace the water. The water is circulated again through the microbubble water preparation device 2 to increase the concentration of microbubbles, ensuring that the stored microbubble water always meets the usage standards. At the same time, the water that is not completely consumed in the microbubble water storage device 1 can be recycled, reducing water waste and lowering the cost of use.
[0048] Alternatively, please see Figure 8 As shown, the microbubble water preparation device 2 is connected to the water source 4 and the microbubble water storage device 1, and the microbubble water storage device 1 is connected to the application component 5.
[0049] Furthermore, the microbubble water preparation mechanism of the present invention also includes a remote controller for sending signals. The controller controls the operation or stop of the application component 5 according to the signals from the remote controller and / or the signal generation module. The application component 5 includes a rinsing device and / or a cleaning device. Thus, the addition of the remote controller enables remote control of the application component 5, improving ease of use. Users can flexibly control the start and stop of the rinsing and cleaning devices according to their own needs without close-range operation. At the same time, it supports collaborative control between the remote controller and the signal generation module, retaining the advantages of intelligent automatic control while increasing the flexibility of manual intervention, adapting to more usage needs.
[0050] When using, ensure that the remote control and the controller communicate normally. The remote control can be paired with the controller. When using, press the corresponding button on the remote control (rinse, clean). After receiving the signal, the controller will control the application component 5 to start and stop. When the signal generation module sends a control signal, the application component 5 can be manually stopped by the remote control. If remote control is not required, the remote control can be put into standby mode without affecting the automatic control function of the signal generation module.
[0051] Please see Figure 9 In the illustrated embodiment, the application component 5 includes a cleaning device that can perform feminine wash and posterior wash. A switching valve 6 is installed between the feminine wash, posterior wash, and microbubble water storage device 1 to switch the cleaning function.
[0052] Please see Figure 10 In the illustrated embodiment, the application component includes a flushing device that can perform direct flushing and brush ring flushing. A water pump 7 and a switching valve 6 are sequentially connected to the direct flushing water outlet, the brush ring flushing water outlet, and the microbubble water storage device 1. The water pump 7 is located between the switching valve 6 and the microbubble water storage device 1.
[0053] Please see Figure 6 In the illustrated embodiment, the microbubble water preparation device 2 includes a water supply component 23, a mixing component 24, an air supply component 22, and a pressurizing component 21. The water supply component 23 is connected to the water source 4 and the mixing component 24. The air outlet 221 of the air supply component 22 is connected to the mixing component 24. The pressurizing component 21 is connected to the mixing component 24 and the microbubble water storage device 1. Water from the water source 4 enters the mixing component 24 through the water supply component 23, and air from the air supply component 22 enters the mixing component 24. Water and air form a gas-liquid mixture. The gas-liquid mixture forms microbubble water after passing through the pressurizing component 21. The water supply component 23 is a water pump or a solenoid valve, the air supply component 22 is an air pump or an air intake component, and the pressurizing component 21 is a water pump. The pressurizing component 21 fully integrates the gas-liquid mixture and generates microbubble water through high pressure.
[0054] Among them, combined Figure 3The water supply component 23 is provided with a water supply inlet 231 and a water supply outlet 232, the pressurizing component 21 is provided with a pressurizing inlet 211 and a pressurizing outlet 212, and the microbubble water preparation device 2 also includes a body, which is provided with a body inlet 26 and a body outlet 25.
[0055] In some embodiments, the microbubble water preparation mechanism of the present invention further includes a throttling element 3, which is connected to the outlet 212 of the pressurizing element, or both ends of the throttling element 3 are connected to the inlet 11 of the microbubble water storage device 1 and the outlet 212 of the pressurizing element respectively through hoses, or the throttling element 3 is fixed to the inlet 11 of the microbubble water storage device 1, or the throttling element 3 is fixed to the outlet 12 of the microbubble water storage device 1.
[0056] Please see Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the inlet 26 of the microbubble water preparation device 2 is sealed to the outlet 12 of the microbubble water storage device 1, and the outlet 25 of the microbubble water preparation device 2 is sealed to the inlet 11 of the microbubble water storage device 1. A throttling device 3 is installed between the outlet 25 of the microbubble water preparation device 2 and the inlet 11 of the microbubble water storage device 1. The water in the microbubble water storage device 1 enters the microbubble water preparation device 2 and is processed to form microbubble water. The microbubble water is then processed by the throttling device 3 to form microbubble water. The microbubble water enters the microbubble water storage device 1 through the inlet 11 of the microbubble water storage device 1. The microbubble water storage device 1 can be a water tank or a water storage container.
[0057] Furthermore, combined with Figure 3 and Figure 4 The throttling device 3 includes a throttling device inlet 31, an inlet section 32, a transition section 33, a throttling section 34, and a throttling device outlet 35 arranged sequentially. One end of the transition section 33 is integrally formed with the inlet section 32, and the other end of the transition section 33 is integrally formed with the throttling section 34. The diameter of the transition section 33 gradually decreases from the inlet section 32 to the throttling section 34. This adjusts the flow rate and pressure of the microbubble water, preventing excessive flow rate from causing microbubble breakage, while stabilizing the water flow entering the microbubble water storage device 1 or application component 5, ensuring the stability and effectiveness of the microbubble water, and extending the lifespan of the microbubbles.
[0058] Among them, Yu Figure 4 In the first embodiment of the throttling device shown, the number of the throttling device 3, including the throttling device inlet 31, the inlet section 32, the transition section 33, the throttling section 34, and the throttling device outlet 35, is one; Figure 5In the second embodiment of the throttling device shown, the number of throttling device inlet 31 is one, and the number of inlet section 32, transition section 33, throttling section 34 and outlet 35 are two, but this is not a limitation. The number of throttling device inlet 31, inlet section 32, transition section 33, throttling section 34 and outlet 35 can also be other numbers.
[0059] Please see Figure 16 As shown, the present invention also discloses a method of using a microbubble water preparation mechanism, comprising the following steps: S1. When the human body sensor detects a human body, the human body sensor will send an activation signal; S2. When the controller receives the start signal, it will control the microbubble water preparation device 2 to start running according to the preset program; S3. When the human body sensor does not detect a human body, the human body sensor will send a shutdown signal; S4. When the controller receives a shutdown signal or the total running time of the microbubble water preparation device 2 exceeds the total preset time, the controller will control the microbubble water preparation device 2 to stop running.
[0060] Of course, in other embodiments, a timing device is set up so that in step S1, the timing device sends a start signal after timing for a first preset time; and in step S3, the timing device sends a stop signal after timing for a second preset time. Other steps are the same as described above and will not be repeated.
[0061] For further information, please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 17 As shown, after the microbubble water preparation device 2 starts operating, the controller can also control the application component 5 to run or stop according to the signal from the remote control; and / or when the human body sensor or the timing device sends a shutdown signal, the controller controls the flushing device to run or stop according to a preset program.
[0062] In some embodiments, the controller can also control the power of the microbubble water preparation device 2. After the microbubble water preparation device 2 starts running, the controller controls the microbubble water preparation device 2 to run at a first power for a first preset time; then controls the microbubble water preparation device 2 to run at a second power until the microbubble water preparation device 2 stops running; the first power is greater than the second power.
[0063] In some embodiments, the controller can also control the power of the microbubble water preparation device 2, and step S2 includes the following steps: S21. After the microbubble water preparation device 2 starts to operate, the controller controls the microbubble water preparation device 2 to operate at a first power for a first preset time; S22. Control the microbubble water preparation device 2 to pause for a second preset time or run at the second power for a second preset time; S23. Control the microbubble water preparation device 2 to operate at a first power for a third preset time or at a second power for a third preset time; S24. Repeat steps S22 and S23 to maintain the microbubble concentration in the microbubble water storage device 1 at a preset value; Wherein, the first power is greater than the second power.
