[0030] Existing water purifiers usually design the water vapor separation and water outlet functions separately, resulting in a complex structure and large space occupation. The water vapor separation device is often set inside the water purifier, which is not easy to clean and maintain.

[0031] More importantly, the existing water vapor separation device has obvious deficiencies when dealing with hot water flow. When hot water passes through, a large amount of gas will precipitate at high temperature, but the existing device cannot effectively separate these gases from the water flow, which causes the water flow at the water outlet to still contain a large number of bubbles, which not only affects the water use experience, but also may cause scalding risks. This problem is particularly prominent in water purifiers connected to instant electric water heaters or gas water heaters.

[0032] Reference Figures 1 to 5 The present application provides an exhaust faucet structure, including an upper shell 100 and a lower shell 200.

[0033] A hot water inlet pipe 110 is arranged on the upper shell 100, a water baffle 120 is arranged inside the upper shell 100, the lower shell 200 is cooperatively connected with the upper shell 100, a hot water outlet pipe 210 is arranged on the lower shell 200, one end of the hot water outlet pipe 210 is located inside the lower shell 200, and the other end is located outside the lower shell 200, an exhaust pipe 220 is arranged inside the lower shell 200, one end of the exhaust pipe 220 is located inside the lower shell 200, and the other end forms an air outlet on the lower shell 200, a water column dispersion structure 300 is arranged inside the lower shell 200, the water column dispersion structure 300 divides the inner cavity of the lower shell 200 into a temporary storage area 230 and a water outlet area 240, the water baffle 120 extends into the temporary storage area 230, the exhaust pipe 220 and the water baffle 120 are staggered along the water inlet direction of the hot water inlet pipe 110, and one end of the hot water outlet pipe 210 located inside the lower shell 200 is located in the water outlet area 240.

[0034] Hot water enters the upper shell 100 from the hot water inlet pipe 110, and after being blocked by the water baffle 120, falls into the temporary storage area 230 inside the lower shell 200. Then, when the hot water passes through the water column dispersion structure 300, the water column dispersion structure 300 disperses the hot water, thereby separating the hot air in the hot water. The hot water after passing through the water column dispersion structure 300 enters the water outlet area 240 and flows out from the water outlet pipe 210. The separated hot air rises to the exhaust pipe 220 and is discharged. This device can effectively separate the gas in the hot water flow, so that the hot air in the water flow reaching the water outlet is effectively reduced. In addition, this device integrates gas separation and water outlet, and the overall structure is more compact and occupies less space.

[0035] In some embodiments, a diverter strip 121 is provided on one side of the water baffle 120 corresponding to the hot water inlet pipe 110. After the hot water flowing into the hot water inlet pipe 110 rushes toward the diverter strip 121 on the water baffle 120, the diverter strip 121 disperses the hot water, thereby separating the gas in the hot water.

[0036] Reference Figure 6 In some embodiments, the water column dispersion structure 300 includes a grid-shaped distributed baffle rib 330 and baffle strips 320 disposed inside the lower shell 200 and located on both sides of the baffle rib 330 .

[0037] Specifically, the baffle rib 330 is vertically arranged inside the lower shell 200, the baffle strip 320 on the right side of the baffle rib 330 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the lower shell 200, and the baffle strip 320 on the left side of the baffle rib 330 is fixedly connected to the exhaust pipe 220. When the hot water falling into the temporary storage area 230 is dispersed by the various baffle ribs 330, the hot air in the hot water will be further separated, and a water gap is also formed between the baffle rib 330 and the baffle strip 320, which will also separate the hot water from the hot air.

[0038] Reference Figure 4 In some other embodiments, the water column dispersion structure 300 includes an overflow pipe 310 and baffle bars 320 disposed inside the lower shell 200 and located on both sides of the overflow pipe 310. The overflow pipe 310 and the baffle bars 320 are vertically disposed inside the lower shell 200, and the height of the baffle bars 320 is equal to or less than the height of the overflow pipe 310. The overflow pipe 310 and the baffle bars 320 on both sides constitute the water column dispersion structure 300. The baffle bar 320 on the right side of the overflow pipe 310 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the lower shell 200, and the baffle bar 320 on the left side of the overflow pipe 310 is fixedly connected to the exhaust pipe 220.

[0039] The hot water passing through the overflow pipe 310 will be diverted to both sides and enter the water outlet area 240 after passing through the baffle strip 320. On the one hand, the overflow pipe 310 plays a role in dispersing the hot water to separate the gas in the hot water. On the other hand, when the water level in the lower shell 200 is too high, the hot water will overflow from the overflow pipe 310, thereby preventing the water level from being too high and causing the hot water to be unable to enter the lower shell 200.

[0040] In some embodiments, the side of the overflow pipe 310 facing the temporary storage area 230 is an arched arc structure, which is more convenient for hot water diversion.

[0041] In some embodiments, the overflow pipe 310 is lower in height than the exhaust pipe 220 .

[0042] In some embodiments, a cold water inlet pipe 250 and a cold water outlet pipe 260 are further provided on the lower housing 200, and the cold water inlet pipe 250 is connected to the cold water outlet pipe 260. In this way, the cold water can also be discharged through the device.

[0043] In some embodiments, connecting ears 270 are disposed on both sides of the lower housing 200. Specifically, connecting holes are provided on the connecting ears 270 to facilitate installation of the device.

[0044] In some embodiments, a plurality of flow-gathering strips 211 are arranged on the inner wall of the outlet end of the hot water outlet pipe 210, and each flow-gathering strip 211 is arranged circumferentially and spaced apart on the inner wall of the hot water outlet pipe 210. This arrangement can reduce the outlet area when the water flow is small, so that the outlet water flow can be better gathered into a water column shape.

[0045] The present application also provides a water purifier, comprising any one of the above ventilated water nozzle structures.

[0046] In the description of this specification, the description with reference to the terms "one embodiment", "some embodiments", "example", "specific example", or "some examples" etc. means that the specific features, structures, materials or characteristics described in conjunction with the embodiment or example are included in at least one embodiment or example of the embodiments of the present application. In this specification, the schematic representations of the above terms do not necessarily refer to the same embodiment or example. Moreover, the specific features, structures, materials or characteristics described may be combined in any one or more embodiments or examples in a suitable manner. In addition, those skilled in the art may combine and combine the different embodiments or examples described in this specification and the features of the different embodiments or examples, without contradiction.

[0047] The embodiments of the present application are described in detail above in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, but the present application is not limited to the above embodiments, and various changes can be made within the knowledge scope of ordinary technicians in the technical field without departing from the purpose of the present application.
