However, during the use of solar water heaters, water leakage may occur due to equipment aging, improper installation, external force damage and other reasons. Water leakage not only leads to waste of hot water resources, but also may damage the structure of the house and even cause safety accidents. Therefore, it is particularly important to develop an alarm device that can monitor the leakage of solar water heaters in real time.

When the user turns on the switch, the plug will touch the signal transmitter and transmit it to the signal transceiver. At the same time, water will flow from the water inlet to the water outlet and reach the water outlet. These water flows will pass through the magnetic coil sleeve to drive the internal fan blades to rotate, and the generated current will trigger the buzzer alarm. The signal transceiver will determine whether to block the current based on whether there is a signal. Once the signal transceiver does not receive a signal but current flows out, the current will trigger the buzzer alarm, allowing the user to come and judge.

The advantage of this arrangement is that the disc 6 can make the water tank 5 more sealed at the inlet and outlet pipes 8 to prevent water leakage, and cold water can be added to the water tank 5 through the water inlet pipe 7.

[0035] like Figure 1As shown, a bracket 21 is fixedly installed at the bottom end of the water inlet pipe 7, and a fixing frame 22 is fixedly installed at one end of the bracket 21. The advantage of this arrangement is that the fixing frame 22 can better fix the upper water tank 5 on the bottom plate 1 to prevent the water tank 5 from becoming unstable and falling.

The advantage of such a configuration is that the connecting sleeve 17 can make the heat collecting tube 4 and the water storage tank 5 more sealed, and hot water can reach the water inlet 19 through the water outlet pipe 8.

[0037] like Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, a water outlet 20 is provided at one end of the water inlet 19, and a connecting water pipe 15 is fixedly installed at one end of the water outlet 20.

The water outlet 13 is easily damaged after long-term use, and it can be conveniently replaced at this time.

[0039] Working principle and use process of the utility model: During the use of the utility model, when the user uses the water leakage alarm device for solar water heaters, the bracket 21 is installed on the bottom plate 1, and the water storage tank 5 is fixed on the bracket 21. Cold water enters the water storage tank 5 of the water heater through the water inlet pipe 7, and then enters the heat collecting pipe 4 to be heated by the sun and then enters the water storage tank 5. A connecting sleeve 17 is installed between the heat collecting pipe 4 and the water storage tank 5, which can prevent water from flowing out from the inside, improve the sealing of the device, and finally go along the water outlet pipe 8 to the When the user turns on the switch 14, the plug 1107 will touch the signal transmitter 1108 and transmit it to the signal transceiver 1101. At the same time, the water will flow from the water inlet 19 to the water outlet 20 and reach the water outlet 13. These water flows will pass through the magnetic induction coil sleeve 1105, driving the internal fan blades 1104 to rotate. Finally, the current generated will trigger the buzzer 1103 to alarm. The signal transceiver 1101 will determine whether there is a signal. If there is a signal, the current will be blocked. If there is no signal, it will trigger the buzzer 1103. The buzzer 1103 alarms and the user comes to judge. The water control alarm component 11 can quickly judge whether there is a water leakage and make an alarm with high accuracy, so that the user has more confidence in the device. Once a water leakage occurs, the automatic water stop component 18 in the device can take automatic water stop measures to prevent a large amount of water resources from being wasted. The signal receiver 2 can receive the signal of the signal transceiver 1101. If the signal transceiver 1101 sends a signal, the signal receiver 1801 will immediately let the hydraulic push rod 1802 push the internal device to stop the water after receiving the signal, so as to prevent a large amount of water resources from being wasted until the user comes to check. If there is no automatic water stop component 18, the user may not find it or not be here. During the period of time when the alarm is found, a large amount of water resources will be wasted. The automatic water stop component 18 prevents this situation and improves the practicality of the device. The user can press the switch 14 to let the water flow out of the water outlet 13. This part is easy to be damaged after long-term use. At this time, the parts can be replaced through the threaded pipe 12, which improves the practicality of the device.
