[0028] Embodiment 1:
[0029] like Figures 1 to 6As shown, this embodiment provides a water circuit controller, including a water inlet pipe 1 and at least three water outlet pipes 2. In this embodiment, taking the water outlet pipe 2 as an example, that is, the water circuit controller is one-outlet-three, and also includes the same number of solenoid control valves 3 as the water outlet pipes 2 and a distribution channel 4 connecting the water inlet ends of each solenoid control valve 3.
[0030] The water inlet pipe 1 is connected to the distribution channel 4, and the water outlet pipe 2 is respectively connected to the water outlet end of each electromagnetic control valve 3. Each electromagnetic control valve 3 is arranged along the axial direction of the water inlet pipe 1. Since the one-outlet-three water circuit controller in the prior art generally has the electromagnetic control valves on the left and right water outlet pipes coaxially arranged, and the electromagnetic control valve on the middle water outlet pipe is arranged vertically, this leads to an increase in the overall thickness of the water circuit controller. At the same time, the electromagnetic control valve 3 is easily inverted during installation, affecting its function. In contrast, in this embodiment, the electromagnetic control valve 3 is arranged along the axial direction of the water inlet pipe 1, which can effectively reduce the overall thickness of the water circuit controller, making the device more compact in thickness, suitable for installation in a space-constrained environment, improving the applicability of the product, and in the intelligent water circuit controller, it can leave enough installation space for other electronic components such as display screens. In addition, there are fewer restrictions on the installation direction of the water circuit controller, and the electromagnetic control valve is not easily affected by inversion.
[0031] Secondly, there are two distribution channels 4, one of which is connected to one side of the water inlet end of the valve cavity of each electromagnetic control valve 3, and the other is connected to the opposite side of the water inlet end of the valve cavity of each electromagnetic control valve 3. The two distribution channels 4 can evenly distribute the water flow to each electromagnetic control valve 3, ensuring that each valve can receive equal water flow pressure during operation, avoiding valve performance differences caused by uneven water flow. At the same time, the redundancy of the system is increased. When a flow channel fails or is blocked, the other flow channel can still continue to work normally to ensure the continuous supply of water flow, which can improve the reliability and stability of the water circuit controller.
[0032] Furthermore, one end of the distribution channel 4 is closed, and the other end is provided with a detachable plug 7, which makes it easy to open the distribution channel 4 during maintenance, so that the inside can be cleaned and the accumulated impurities and sediments can be removed. This helps to maintain the normal operation of the water circuit controller, extend its service life, and ensure the smooth flow of water.
[0033] In the present embodiment, each of the outlet pipes 2 is integrally formed into a main pipe 5, and the main pipe 5 is provided with installation cavities 50 of the same number and coaxial arrangement as the outlet pipes 2, and a distribution cavity 51 is provided between adjacent installation cavities 50, and the distribution cavity 51 can also be regarded as a part of the distribution channel 4, and the solenoid control valve 3 is coaxially arranged in the installation cavity 50, and the distribution channel 4 connecting the installation cavity 50 and the distribution cavity 51 is provided on both sides, and the installation cavity 50 is equivalent to the valve cavity of the solenoid control valve 3, wherein the solenoid control valve 3 adopts a water circuit control valve commonly used in the prior art, and preferably, when it is connected to the installation cavity 50 on the main pipe 5, a valve structure with water inlet from the side and water outlet from the center downward is formed, specifically, a valve seat portion is provided in the installation cavity 50, and a water inlet connected to the distribution channel 4 is provided on the side wall, and a water outlet connected to the outlet pipe 2 is provided on the valve seat portion.
[0034] Among them, the water inlet pipe 1 includes a water inlet channel 10 and at least one water outlet channel 11. There are various structures for connecting the water outlet channel 11 with the distribution channel 4. The main differences lie in the number of water outlet channels 11 and the connection structure between the water outlet channel 11 and the distribution channel 4.
[0035] The number of the water outlet channels 11 may be:
[0036] There are two water outlet channels 11, and they are distributed in a straight line relative to the water inlet end of any electromagnetic control valve 3; there are three water outlet channels 11, and they are distributed in a triangle relative to the water inlet end of any electromagnetic control valve 3; there are four water outlet channels 11, and they are distributed in a cross shape relative to the water inlet end of any electromagnetic control valve 3.
[0037] Preferably, the number of the water outlet channels 11 = the number of the water outlet pipes 2 - 1, so that the water flow can be evenly distributed to each solenoid control valve 3. At this time, except for the two solenoid control valves 3 at both ends, the solenoid control valve 3 in the middle is located between the two water outlet channels 11.
[0038] Among them, regarding the connection structure between the water outlet channel 11 and the distribution channel 4:
[0039] The water outlet channel 11 is connected to the distribution chamber 51 and communicates therewith, or it can be connected to the distribution channels 4 on both sides of the distribution chamber 51 and communicates therewith, or it can be connected to the distribution channels 4 on both sides of the installation chamber 50 and communicates therewith, and these three connection positions can be combined arbitrarily.
[0040] If the water outlet channel 11 is connected to the distribution chamber 51 , the water outlet channel 11 is generally a pipe portion coaxially extending from the water inlet pipe 1 and connected to the distribution chamber 51 , and bolt connection may be adopted.
[0041] If the water outlet channel 11 is directly connected to the distribution channel 4, it can be connected through the channel plate 6. The water outlet channel 11 is arranged in the channel plate 6. Preferably, the channel plate 6 is oblong. Compared with the circular pipe, the use of the oblong channel plate 6 can minimize the thickness of the product. For example, the channel plate 6 is arranged between the distribution channel 4 on both sides of the installation cavity 50 and the water inlet pipe 1, and the water outlet channel 11 is arranged in the channel plate 6.
[0042] Of course, if the pipeline part and the channel plate 6 are used at the same time, the overall strength of the product can be increased while increasing the flow rate.
[0043] Preferably, the water outlet channel 11 is arranged along the axial direction of the water inlet pipe 1, the water outlet pipe 2 is arranged along the axial direction of the water inlet pipe 1, and the electromagnetic control valve 3 is arranged between the two water outlet channels 11 and coaxially arranged with the corresponding water outlet pipe 2, for example, installed between two channel plates 6, or between two pipe parts, or in the middle of two channel plates 6 and two pipe parts, which further makes the product more compact.
