Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to a vertical and horizontal dual-purpose electric water heater, in particular to an vertical and horizontal dual-purpose electric water heater with a plastic inner tank. Background Art

[0002] At present, most of the vertical and horizontal electric water heaters on the market use enamel inner tanks that are highly corrosion-resistant and easy to clean. However, enamel inner tanks also have many problems such as high cost and easy porcelain explosion at the punching points. Especially in areas with poor water quality, the problem of porcelain explosion at the pipe mouth and water leakage due to perforation is more serious. Due to the characteristics of enamel inner tanks that porcelain is easy to explode and inconvenient to punch holes, the matching flanges are generally equipped with water inlet and outlet pipes, which further increases the overall cost of the flanges. In addition, vertical and horizontal electric water heaters also put forward higher requirements for the setting of water inlet and outlet pipes. It is necessary to evacuate the air in the inner tank as much as possible. Otherwise, dry burning or even burning of the machine is likely to occur, which seriously threatens personal safety.

[0003] For example, a Chinese invention application with application publication number CN104197510A, entitled "A ceiling-mounted concealed electric water heater", discloses: comprising an outer shell (1), an insulation layer (2), an inner tank (3), a heater (4), a water inlet pipe (5), a water outlet pipe (6), a magnesium rod (7) and a bracket (10), wherein the heater (4) is located between the water inlet pipe (5) and the water outlet pipe (6), the heater (4), the water inlet pipe (5), the water outlet pipe (6) and the magnesium rod (7) are respectively connected to the inner tank (3) from the side end of the inner tank (3), the water inlet pipe (5) is moved down to be horizontally arranged near the lower wall of the inner tank (3), the water outlet pipe (6) is moved up to be horizontally arranged near the upper wall of the inner tank (3), the pipe ends of the water inlet pipe (5) and the water outlet pipe (6) are sealed, a plurality of water inlet holes are evenly opened on the lower side of the pipe body of the water inlet pipe (5), and a plurality of water outlet holes are evenly opened on the upper side of the pipe body of the water outlet pipe (6). The length of the water outlet pipe (6) is determined according to the length of the inner liner (3), and the end of the water outlet pipe (6) is close to the end of the inner liner (3). The technical solution described in the invention application does not improve the inner liner material problem, and therefore cannot overcome the problems of inner liner perforation and leakage and high product cost. In addition, although the arrangement of the water inlet pipe (5) and the water outlet pipe (6) can achieve the effect of evacuating air, it cannot overcome the problem of the inner wall of the inner liner being scratched due to the vibration of the pipe body during water inlet and water outlet, which is easy to cause damage to the inner liner and accelerate the speed of perforation and leakage.

In the present application, the water inlet pipe and the water outlet pipe are arranged to extend inwardly along the inner wall of the plastic liner, which can ensure that the air in the liner can be emptied regardless of whether the plastic liner is arranged vertically or horizontally to prevent dry burning. In addition, the water inlet pipe and the water outlet pipe extending inwardly along the inner wall of the plastic liner are fixed to the inner wall of the plastic liner by a support, which can prevent the water inlet pipe and the water outlet pipe from vibrating and scratching the inner wall of the liner when water is inlet or out.
