[0002] With the continuous development of modern technology, smart home has become an important direction for people to pursue quality of life. In environments where water is needed, such as bathrooms, wash basins are an indispensable part of daily life, and their user experience and energy-saving performance have received more and more attention. However, there is a common problem when using traditional wash basin faucets: the water temperature flowing out of the faucet needs to go through a period of heating or mixing before it reaches the temperature expected by the user.

[0003] During this heating or mixing process, the water is often wasted because the water temperature does not reach the comfortable temperature expected by the user. This not only increases the consumption of water resources, but also invisibly increases the user's water cost. Especially in public places or homes, due to the high frequency of use of wash basins, this waste caused by waiting for the right water temperature is more prominent. Utility Model Content

[0004] In view of the above problems, the purpose of the utility model is to overcome the deficiencies of the prior art and design an intelligent water control system for a smart wash basin faucet.

[0005] To achieve the above-mentioned objectives, the utility model provides the following technical solutions: an intelligent water outlet control system for an intelligent wash basin faucet, comprising a faucet body, a tap water pipe and a heating mechanism, and also comprising a recovery mechanism, a temperature measuring mechanism, a first pipe and a second pipe, wherein the output end of the heating mechanism is connected to the faucet body and the input end of the recovery mechanism through the first pipe, the temperature measuring mechanism is arranged in the first pipe, the input end of the heating mechanism is connected to the tap water pipe and the output end of the recovery mechanism through the second pipe, the recovery mechanism is used to recover and store water that has not reached a specified water temperature after being heated by the heating mechanism, and the temperature measuring mechanism is used to detect the temperature of water output from the heating mechanism, when the temperature of the water output from the heating mechanism does not reach the specified water temperature, the water enters the recovery mechanism through the first pipe, and when the temperature of the water output from the heating mechanism reaches the specified water temperature, the water enters the faucet body through the second pipe.

[0024] The embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below, and examples of the embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals throughout represent the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain the present invention, and cannot be understood as limiting the present invention.

[0025] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, the utility model describes an intelligent water control system for an intelligent wash basin faucet, comprising a faucet body 1, a tap water pipe 2 and a heating mechanism 3, and also comprising a recovery mechanism 4, a temperature measuring mechanism 5, a first pipe 6 and a second pipe 7. The output end of the heating mechanism 3 is connected to the faucet body 1 and the input end of the recovery mechanism 4 through the first pipe 6, the temperature measuring mechanism 5 is arranged in the first pipe 6, the input end of the heating mechanism 3 is connected to the tap water pipe 2 and the output end of the recovery mechanism 4 through the second pipe 7, the recovery mechanism 4 is used to recover and store water that has not reached a specified water temperature after being heated by the heating mechanism 3, the temperature measuring mechanism 5 is used to detect the temperature of water output from the heating mechanism 3, when the temperature of the water output from the heating mechanism 3 does not reach the specified water temperature, the water enters the recovery mechanism 4 through the first pipe 6, and when the temperature of the water output from the heating mechanism 3 reaches the specified water temperature, the water enters the faucet body 1 through the second pipe 7.

[0026] Specifically, the utility model recycles and stores the water whose water temperature has not reached the specified value at the initial stage of heating through the recovery mechanism 4. When the water temperature output by the heating mechanism 3 reaches the specified value, the system then delivers the water to the faucet body 1 through the first pipe 6 for the user to use. Such a design not only avoids the waste of water resources, but also improves the energy-saving performance of the system. At the same time, the water in the recovery mechanism 4 is transported to the input end of the heating mechanism 3, which can also reduce the energy consumption of the heating mechanism 3. Since the water in the recovery mechanism 4 has been heated to a certain extent, its temperature is higher than that of tap water, so the energy required by the heating mechanism 3 to heat it to the specified water temperature will be reduced, thereby improving the energy efficiency of the entire system.

[0027] Further, refer to Figure 2 As shown, it also includes a first valve 8, a second valve 9, a third valve 10 and a fourth valve 11. The first valve 8 is arranged between the faucet body 1 and the first pipe 6, the second valve 9 is arranged between the input end of the recovery mechanism 4 and the first pipe 6, the third valve 10 is arranged between the tap pipe 2 and the second pipe 7, and the fourth valve 11 is arranged between the output end of the recovery mechanism 4 and the second pipe 7.

[0028] Specifically, the first valve 8 is disposed between the faucet body 1 and the first pipe 6, and is mainly used to control the water flow from the faucet body 1. When the temperature measuring mechanism 5 detects that the water temperature reaches a specified value, the first valve 8 will automatically open, allowing water to flow to the faucet body 1 for use by the user. When the temperature measuring mechanism 5 detects that the water temperature does not reach the specified value, the first valve 8 will automatically close to prevent water waste.

[0029] The second valve 9 is arranged between the input end of the recovery mechanism 4 and the first pipe 6, and is used to control the recovery mechanism 4 to recover water that does not reach the specified water temperature. When the water temperature does not reach the specified value, the second valve 9 will open to allow this part of water to enter the recovery mechanism 4 for storage. When the water temperature reaches the specified value, the second valve 9 will close to prevent the water from continuing to flow into the recovery mechanism 4.

[0030] The third valve 10 is arranged between the tap water pipe 2 and the second pipe 7, and is mainly used to control the input of tap water. When the heating mechanism 3 needs to replenish water, the third valve 10 is opened to allow tap water to flow into the second pipe 7. When replenishing water is not needed or the system is shut down, the third valve 10 is closed to avoid unnecessary waste of tap water.

[0031] The fourth valve 11 is arranged between the output end of the recovery mechanism 4 and the second pipe 7, and is used to control the water stored in the recovery mechanism 4 to flow into the heating mechanism 3. When the heating mechanism 3 needs to use the water in the recovery mechanism 4, the fourth valve 11 is opened to allow the water to flow into the second pipe 7 and enter the heating mechanism 3. When the water in the recovery mechanism 4 is not needed, the fourth valve 11 is closed.

[0032] Further, refer to Figure 2 As shown, the recovery mechanism 4 includes a water tank 41, a water inlet is provided at the top of the water tank 41, a water outlet is provided at the bottom of the water tank 41, the water inlet is connected to the output end of the heating mechanism 3 through a first pipe 6, and the water outlet is connected to the input end of the heating mechanism 3 through a second pipe 7.

[0033] Specifically, a water inlet is provided at the top of the water storage tank 41, and the water inlet is connected to the output end of the heating mechanism 3 through the first pipe 6. When the water temperature output by the heating mechanism 3 does not reach the specified value, this part of water will flow into the water inlet of the water storage tank 41 through the first pipe 6 and be stored in the water storage tank 41. Such a design enables the system to effectively recycle the substandard water and avoid waste caused by its direct discharge.

[0034] At the same time, a water outlet is provided at the bottom of the water storage tank 41, and the water outlet is connected to the input end of the heating mechanism 3 through the second pipe 7. When the heating mechanism 3 needs to be supplemented with water for heating, the system will open the corresponding valve as needed to allow the water in the water storage tank 41 to flow into the input end of the heating mechanism 3 through the second pipe 7. In this way, the water in the recovery mechanism 4 can be recycled, which not only saves water resources but also improves the energy efficiency of the system.

[0035] Further, refer to Figure 3 As shown, the recovery mechanism 4 further includes a water pump 42 , the input end of the water pump 42 is sealedly connected to the water outlet, and the output end of the water pump 42 is sealedly connected to the second pipe 7 .

[0036] Specifically, the input end of the water pump 42 is sealed and connected to the water outlet of the water tank 41 to ensure that there will be no water leakage during the pumping process. The output end of the water pump 42 is sealed and connected to the second pipe 7, so that the water pump 42 can effectively extract the water in the water tank 41 and transport it to the input end of the heating mechanism 3 through the second pipe 7. At the same time, the water pump 42 allows the water in the recovery mechanism 4 to flow into the heating mechanism 3 more quickly and stably, avoiding the problem of reduced heating efficiency or system instability caused by poor water flow or insufficient pressure. At the same time, the addition of the water pump 42 also makes the design of the recovery mechanism 4 more flexible, and the water flow and pressure can be adjusted as needed to meet the needs of different usage scenarios.

[0037] Further, refer to Figure 4As shown, the top of the water tank 41 is also provided with an exhaust port 411. Specifically, the main function of the exhaust port 411 is to balance the air pressure inside and outside the water tank 41, and ensure that the air pressure inside the water tank 41 can remain stable during the water storage or water discharge process. When water with a certain temperature enters the water tank 41 or the water in the water tank 41 cools, the volume of the water will change, thereby generating a certain air pressure change. If there is no exhaust port 411, this air pressure change may cause the water tank 41 to deform, rupture or affect the smoothness of the water flow. With the exhaust port 411, the air pressure inside and outside the water tank 41 can be balanced in time, avoiding the occurrence of these problems. In addition, the exhaust port 411 can also prevent negative pressure from being generated inside the water tank 41. When the water in the water tank 41 is quickly pumped out, if there is no exhaust port 411, negative pressure may be generated inside the water tank 41, resulting in poor water flow or the water pump 42 cannot work normally. The exhaust port 411 can replenish air in time to prevent the generation of negative pressure, thereby ensuring the normal operation of the water tank 41 and the water pump 42.

[0038] Further, refer to Figure 4 As shown, a one-way valve 412 is provided at the exhaust port 411. Specifically, the main function of the one-way valve 412 is to only allow gas to be discharged from the inside of the water tank 41 to the outside, while preventing external gas or impurities from entering the inside of the water tank 41. Such a design can effectively prevent external impurities such as dust and insects from entering the water tank 41 through the exhaust port 411, thereby keeping the stored water clean and hygienic. At the same time, the one-way valve 412 can also automatically open when the pressure inside the water tank 41 is too high, release excess gas, and balance the air pressure inside and outside the water tank 41. When the pressure returns to normal, the one-way valve 412 will automatically close to prevent external gas from entering. This automatic adjustment function ensures that the pressure inside the water tank 41 is always kept within a safe range. In addition, the one-way valve 412 is also simple in structure, durable and reliable, and can operate stably for a long time without frequent maintenance and replacement. This greatly reduces the maintenance cost of the system and improves the overall reliability of the system.

[0039] Further, refer to Figure 5 As shown, the side of the water tank 41 is provided with an observation port 413. Specifically, the main function of the observation port 413 is to allow the user to visually view the water level and water quality in the water tank 41. Through the observation port 413, the user can clearly understand whether the water in the water tank 41 is clear and free of impurities. In this way, the user can replace the water in the water tank 41 in time according to the clarity of the water, ensuring the normal operation of the system and the safety of water use.

[0040] Further, refer to Figure 5As shown, the observation port 413 is provided with transparent glass, and the transparent glass is provided with scales. Specifically, the transparent glass allows the user to clearly see the water level inside the water tank 41 without opening or disassembling any parts, which greatly facilitates the use of the user. At the same time, the transparent glass material is durable and easy to clean, and can remain clear and transparent for a long time, ensuring that the user can always accurately observe the water level. Setting scales on the transparent glass further improves the accuracy of observation. The scales can clearly show the positions of different water levels in the water tank 41.

[0041] It is obvious to those skilled in the art that the present invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that the present invention can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential features of the present invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be regarded as exemplary and non-restrictive from any point of view, and the scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the above description, and it is intended that all changes falling within the meaning and scope of the equivalent elements of the claims be included in the present invention. Any reference numeral in a claim should not be regarded as limiting the claim to which it relates.
