Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of water tank sterilization, in particular to an ultraviolet sterilization system for a water tank of direct drinking water equipment. Background Art

[0002] Direct drinking water equipment refers to equipment that filters water multiple times to reach the standard of being directly drinkable. Ultraviolet (UV) lamps are usually installed inside water tanks or on pipes through which water flows. These UV lamps emit ultraviolet light of a specific wavelength, usually 254 nanometers. This ultraviolet light has a strong bactericidal ability and can destroy the DNA structure of bacteria, viruses and other microorganisms, making them unable to reproduce and survive.

[0003] Existing ultraviolet disinfection does not produce toxicity, does not have any residues or various by-products, and does not change the taste, odor or pH value of water. However, it has no continuous sterilization ability. If the disinfected water encounters a new pollution source, it will be polluted again.

[0004] The existing patent (Announcement No.: CN204569626U) is a sterilization system for piped drinking water, which continuously sterilizes the drinking water in the drinking water storage tank, double-sterilizes the drinking water through a circulation pump and an ultraviolet sterilizer, and then returns the water to the drinking water storage tank to mix with the drinking water inside. The ozone dissolved in the water is widely dispersed throughout the water tank to sterilize the water therein. At the same time, the trace ozone dissipated in the water can also kill the air and inner wall of the water tank, inhibiting the growth of bacteria.

[0005] In view of the above problems, the existing patents provide solutions, but the sterilization efficiency is low during actual use. If it is directly applied to direct drinking water equipment, users will have to wait for a period of time before they can get direct drinking water, which is inconvenient to use.

[0006] Therefore, a direct drinking water equipment water tank ultraviolet sterilization system is proposed. Utility Model Content

The first side and the water suction end are connected with the end of the first spiral tube 204 away from the filter 201, the water outlet end of the first water pump 205 is arranged inside the water storage tank 203, the first controller 206 is arranged inside the sterilization chamber 202, the first ultraviolet sterilization lamp 207 is arranged on the top of the first controller 206 and is used in conjunction with the first spiral tube 204, the flow sensor 208 is arranged on one side of the first spiral tube 204 and is used in conjunction with the first controller 206, and the control panel 209 is arranged on one side of the cabinet 1 and is used in conjunction with the first water pump 205 and the first controller 206.

[0031] Specifically, Figure 4 As shown, the water outlet assembly 3 includes a second water pump 301, a water suction pipe 302, a second spiral tube 303, a second controller 304, a second ultraviolet sterilization lamp 305, a water outlet bin 306 and a water outlet 307. The second water pump 301 is bolted to the side of the water tank 203 away from the first water pump 205 and is used in conjunction with the control panel 209. The water suction pipe 302 is arranged at the water suction end of the second water pump 301 and extends to the interior of the water tank 203. The second spiral tube 303 is arranged at the water outlet end of the second water pump 301. The second controller 304 is arranged in the interior of the sterilization bin 202 and is used in conjunction with the control panel 209.

[0032] When in use, the control panel 209 issues a command to make the filter 201 filter the water source connected to the outside, and then starts the first water pump 205 to drive the filtered water source to enter the inside of the water storage tank 203 through the first spiral tube 204. When the water flows inside the first spiral tube 204, it will trigger the flow sensor 208. Through the flow sensor 208, the first controller 206 will start the first ultraviolet germicidal lamp 207.

The first spiral tube 204 and the second spiral tube 303 made of quartz have very high ultraviolet transmittance and can effectively allow ultraviolet light to pass through and irradiate the microorganisms in the water flow.

[0035] Specifically, Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, a water quality sensor 5 is disposed inside the water tank 203 , and an indicator light 6 is disposed on one side of the control panel 209 , and the indicator light 6 is used in conjunction with the water quality sensor 5 .

[0036] Specifically, Figure 4 As shown, a splash-proof plate 7 is provided on one side of the water outlet bin 306 . The splash-proof plate 7 is cylindrical in shape and is used in conjunction with the water outlet 307 .

[0037] Specifically, Figure 4 As shown, lighting lamps 8 are arranged inside the water outlet bin 306 , and the number of the lighting lamps 8 is two and they are evenly distributed on the inner wall of the water outlet bin 306 .

[0038] When in use, the water quality sensor 5 can detect the water quality of the water source inside the water tank 203. When the water quality does not meet the standard, the indicator light 6 will give a warning. The splash-proof plate 7 can prevent water from splashing when the water outlet 307 is discharged. The lighting lamp 8 can improve the lighting effect at night. When the first ultraviolet sterilization lamp 207 is damaged, the cover plate 402 can be pulled out from the inside of the maintenance groove 401 by loosening the fixing bolts 403, so that the interior of the sterilization chamber 202 can be leaked to facilitate the maintenance or replacement of the first ultraviolet sterilization lamp 207.

[0039] By adopting the above technical solution, the problem that the ultraviolet sterilization system of the water tank of the existing direct drinking water equipment has low sterilization efficiency during actual use is solved. If it is directly applied to the direct drinking water equipment, it will cause the user to wait for a period of time before being able to receive direct drinking water, which is inconvenient to use.

[0040] When the present application is in use, firstly, a command is issued through the control panel 209 to make the filter 201 filter the water source connected to the outside, and then the first water pump 205 is started to drive the filtered water source to enter the water storage tank 203 through the first spiral tube 204. When the water flows inside the first spiral tube 204, the flow sensor 208 is triggered. Through the flow sensor 208, the first controller 206 starts the first ultraviolet sterilization lamp 207. The ultraviolet rays emitted by the first ultraviolet sterilization lamp 207 pass through the first spiral tube 204 made of quartz to disinfect and sterilize the water source inside the first spiral tube 204. At the same time, since the first spiral tube 204 is a spiral design, the water source can be sterilized by ultraviolet rays to the greatest extent. Then, when water needs to be discharged, the controller 206 starts the first ultraviolet sterilization lamp 207. The second water pump 301 is driven to drive the water source inside the water tank 203 to discharge through the second spiral tube 303 and the water outlet 307 through the water suction pipe 302. The water source will be disinfected and sterilized by the second ultraviolet germicidal lamp 305 again during the water discharge process. The water quality sensor 5 can detect the water quality of the water source inside the water tank 203. When the water quality does not meet the standard, an indicator light 6 will be used to warn. The splash-proof plate 7 can prevent water from splashing when the water outlet 307 discharges water. The lighting lamp 8 can improve the lighting effect at night. When the first ultraviolet germicidal lamp 207 is damaged, the cover plate 402 can be pulled out from the inside of the maintenance slot 401 by loosening the fixing bolts 403, so that the inside of the sterilization chamber 202 can be leaked to facilitate the maintenance or replacement of the first ultraviolet germicidal lamp 207.

[0041] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solution of the utility model, rather than to limit it. Although the utility model has been described in detail with reference to the aforementioned embodiments, ordinary technicians in this field should understand that they can still modify the technical solutions recorded in the aforementioned embodiments, or replace some or all of the technical features therein with equivalents.
