DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0025] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the utility model more clear, the utility model is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described here are only used to explain the utility model and are not used to limit the utility model.

[0026] Embodiment 1:

[0027] The present embodiment provides a water outlet valve including a valve body 1, on which a main valve cavity 11 and a water inlet 2 directly connected to the main valve cavity 11 are provided, one end of the main valve cavity 11 is configured as a heating water outlet 4, the valve body 1 is also provided with a bypass valve installation port 8 and a pressure relief port 15, the pressure relief port 15 is directly connected to the main valve cavity 11, the bypass valve installation port 8 is directly connected to the main valve cavity 11, and the bypass valve installation port 8 is also directly connected to the heating water outlet 4 through a first flow channel 10; specifically, the main valve cavity 11 is a linear flow channel, and a through hole is provided on the side wall of the linear flow channel on the side close to the bypass valve installation port 8, and the bypass valve installation port 8 is connected to the linear flow channel through the through hole.

[0028] In this embodiment, the main valve chamber 11 includes an upper cavity (i.e., the first valve cavity section), a middle cavity (i.e., the second valve cavity section) and a lower cavity (i.e., the third valve cavity section), and the heating water outlet 4 is arranged at the downward opening of the lower cavity. A bypass channel 81 is provided in the valve body 1, and the bypass channel 81 is used to connect the bypass valve installation port 8 with the upper cavity.

[0029] In the present embodiment, the aforementioned bypass channel 81 is formed between the side wall at the place where the first channel 10 is connected to the bypass valve installation port 8 and the cavity wall of the main valve cavity 11, and a plug 6 is installed at the end of the bypass valve installation port 8 away from the main valve cavity 11; specifically, the bypass channel 81 is connected to the bypass valve installation port 8, and the bypass valve installation port 8 is connected to the first channel 10. The intersection area of ​​the bypass channel 81, the bypass valve installation port and the first channel serves as the area for installing the bypass valve core. The installation area is located on the side of the upper cavity in the valve body, which makes full use of the space in the valve body and makes the valve body structure more compact.

[0030] In this embodiment, the main valve cavity 11 and the first flow channel 10 are parallel flow channels, and the connection between the first flow channel 10 and the heating water outlet 4 is located on the inner wall of the third valve cavity section, which optimizes the flow channel structure at the heating water outlet and makes the valve body structure more compact.

[0031] In this embodiment, a three-way valve core 9 is installed in the main valve chamber 11. When the three-way valve core 9 is opened, the upper cavity and the middle cavity are isolated by the three-way valve core 9, and the middle cavity and the third valve chamber section are connected to each other, and the water inlet 2 and the heating water outlet 4 are also connected. At this time, hot water flows out from the heating water outlet 4 to realize the heating function; when the three-way valve core 9 is closed, the upper cavity and the middle cavity are connected, the middle cavity and the third valve chamber section are isolated, and the water inlet 2 and the heating water outlet 4 are also isolated by the three-way valve core. Specifically, an upper valve seat 91 and a lower valve seat 92 are installed inside the main valve cavity. The upper valve seat 91 and the lower valve seat 92 divide the main valve cavity into three cavities, and the three-way valve core 9 is installed on the upper valve seat and the lower valve seat. When the three-way valve core moves downward to open, the upper part of the three-way valve core 9 is abutted against the upper valve seat to isolate the upper cavity from the middle cavity. At the same time, the lower part of the three-way valve core 9 is separated from the lower valve seat to connect the middle cavity with the lower cavity; when the three-way valve core moves upward to close, the upper part of the three-way valve core 9 is separated from the upper valve seat to connect the upper cavity with the middle cavity. At the same time, the lower part of the three-way valve core 9 is abutted against the lower valve seat to isolate the middle cavity from the lower cavity, thereby stopping heating.

[0032] When the three-way valve core 9 is opened, the water resistance in the heating circuit increases, causing the pressure difference between the heating and bathroom heating channel connected to the bypass valve (i.e. the bypass flow channel 81 connected to the main valve chamber) and the heating channel (i.e. the first flow channel 10 connected to the heating water outlet 4) to gradually increase until the opening pressure of the bypass valve is reached, and the bypass valve automatically opens. At this time, the water in the heating channel is injected into the heating and bathroom heating channel through the bypass valve until the pressure difference of the bypass valve related pipeline is filled, and when the pressure difference is reduced to the closing pressure of the bypass valve, the bypass valve automatically closes.

[0033] In this embodiment, the heating water outlet 4 and the central axis of the main valve cavity 11 are staggered, the distance between the two central axes is staggered by a distance A, and the heating water outlet 4 is close to the water inlet 2, and the main valve cavity 11 is far away from the water inlet 2. An offset space is formed between the outer wall of the valve body where the water inlet 2 is located and the outer wall of the valve body where the heating water outlet 4 is located. The water inlet 2 is located in the offset space, and the end of the water inlet 2 is flush with the outer wall of the valve body where the heating water outlet 4 is located, so that the installation space required for the water inlet 2 is smaller.

[0034] In this embodiment, a first flow channel 10 is formed between the cavity wall of the main valve cavity 11 and the inner wall of the valve body 1, and the first flow channel 10 is connected to the upper cavity, so as to fully utilize the internal space of the valve body and optimize the flow channel layout.

[0035] In this embodiment, the first flow channel 10 is a special-shaped flow channel, which has bending sections at one end close to the bypass valve installation port 8 and one end close to the heating water outlet 4. The flow channel between the two bending sections is linear and arranged in parallel with the main valve cavity.

[0036] In this embodiment, a bathroom water outlet 3 and a bathroom water inlet 12 are also provided on the valve body 1. The bathroom water outlet 3 is directly connected to the bathroom water inlet 12, and the external tap water to be heated enters the water outlet valve from the bathroom water inlet 12; specifically, the bathroom water inlet 12 is arranged on the valve body beside the main valve cavity 11, and the main valve cavity wall separates the bathroom water inlet from the bathroom water inlet 12, the bathroom water outlet 3 is arranged on the side of the bathroom water inlet 12 away from the main valve cavity 1, and is located between the water outlet 3 and the bathroom water inlet 12 and is connected through an L-shaped flow channel 7.

[0037] In this embodiment, a bathroom heat exchange water outlet 13 is also provided on the valve body 1, and the bathroom heat exchange water outlet 13 is directly connected to the main valve chamber 11; specifically, a through hole is provided on the cavity wall of the main valve chamber 11, and the bathroom heat exchange water outlet 13 is connected to the main valve chamber 11 through the through hole, and the direction of the bathroom heat exchange water outlet 13 is the same as that of the bathroom water inlet 12, and the bathroom heat exchange water outlet 13 and the bathroom water inlet 12 are connected to the external heat exchanger at the same time.

[0038] In this embodiment, the valve body 1 is integrally formed of plastic, and injection molding can make the irregular flow channel designed above easier to be processed and formed, thereby improving processing efficiency.

[0039] Embodiment 2:

[0040] This embodiment discloses a plate heat exchanger water circuit system, including an inlet valve 14 and an outlet valve as disclosed in any of the previous embodiments, and a plate heat exchanger 16 connected between the inlet valve 14 and the outlet valve, a bypass valve core is installed in the bypass valve installation port 8, and a pressure relief valve core is installed in the pressure relief port 15. Tap water enters the plate heat exchanger 16 through the inlet valve 14, and enters from the bathroom water inlet 12 of the outlet valve after being heated by the plate heat exchanger 16, and then enters the L-shaped flow channel 7 through the bathroom water inlet 12 and flows out from the heating outlet 3. The heat exchange water flow in the plate heat exchanger 16 enters the main valve cavity 11 from the bathroom heat exchange outlet 13, opens the three-way valve core 9 in the main valve cavity 11, connects the upper cavity and the lower cavity, and makes the cold water in the water inlet 2 merge with the heat exchange water flow in the main valve cavity and flow out from the heating outlet 4 together.
