The cold and hot water exchange module of the utility model can be installed inside the intelligent water dispenser to provide boiling water and directly drinkable warm water at the same time.
[0031] like Figure 1As shown, external cold water is input into the waterway plate 1 from the inlet of the cold water pipe 11, flows along the cold water pipe 11 to the outlet of the cold water pipe 11, is input into the heat exchanger 2 from the cold water inlet 21 on the heat exchanger 2, passes through the cold water exchange pipe of the heat exchanger 2, flows out from the cold water outlet 22 on the heat exchanger 2, and then enters the heating tube 3. The heating tube 3 continuously heats the internal water flow to boiling, and the boiled hot water flows into the hot water pipe 12 in the waterway plate 1 from the hot water pipe inlet 12. A first hot water pipe outlet 122 and a second hot water pipe outlet 123 are provided in the hot water pipe 12. The water flow is divided into two water paths in the hot water pipe 12. One water path flows out directly through the first hot water pipe outlet 122 to provide boiling water to users for brewing instant granules, tea, etc.; the other water path flows into the heat exchanger 2 from the hot water inlet 23 through the second hot water pipe outlet 123. The hot water enters the hot water exchange pipe in the heat exchanger 2. The cold water exchange pipe and the hot water exchange pipe are in contact with each other, and there is a temperature difference between them. The hot water and the cold water exchange heat, and the temperature of the hot water decreases to become warm water. The warm water flows out of the heat exchanger 2 from the warm water outlet 24.

The heat exchanger 2 and the heating pipe 3 are connected through the waterway plate 1, and there is no need to use a connecting pipe to connect the various components in the water dispenser, which simplifies the internal waterway structure and facilitates installation. At the same time, metal materials are used to make the waterway plates, which have reliable strength and stable connections, and will not cause problems such as leakage and odor caused by aging of silicone tubes and plastic tubes.
[0032] like Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 As shown, the waterway plate 1 includes a waterway plate base 14, a waterway plate cover 15 and a waterway plate bracket 16 which are connected in sequence. The waterway plate base 14 and the waterway plate cover 15, as well as the waterway plate cover 15 and the waterway plate bracket 16 can be connected by screws. When the screw connection is adopted, a first connection part 141 connected to the heat exchanger 2 and a second connection part 142 connected to the waterway plate cover 15 are provided on the waterway plate base 14, a third connection part 151 connected to the heating pipe 3 is provided on the waterway plate cover 15, and a fourth connection part 161 connected to the waterway plate cover 15 is provided on the waterway plate bracket 16. The use of screws to connect the various components of the waterway plate 1 is firm and reliable, with high connection strength, avoiding the problems of wrong installation and connection confusion when connecting the pipelines, and at the same time, it occupies a small space and is suitable for installation inside the water dispenser.
[0033] Ultrasonic welding can also be used to connect the waterway plate base 14 and the waterway plate cover 15, as well as the waterway plate cover 15 and the waterway plate bracket 16. Ultrasonic welding has fast speed, high welding strength, good sealing and low cost. It is clean and pollution-free and will not damage the main body of the waterway plate 1. It is very suitable for connecting the various components of the waterway plate 1.
[0034] like Figure 3 , Figure 4 As shown, the waterway base 14 is provided with a first cold water cavity 144, a first hot water cavity 145 and a first warm water cavity 146; the waterway cover 15 is provided with a second cold water cavity 152, a second hot water cavity 153 and a second warm water cavity 154; the first cold water cavity 144 and the second cold water cavity 152 surround a cold water pipe 11, the first hot water cavity 145 and the second hot water cavity 153 surround a hot water pipe 12, and the first warm water cavity 146 and the second warm water cavity 154 surround a warm water pipe 13. The waterway base 14 and the waterway cover 15 are respectively provided with cavities for accommodating water flow, and after assembly, three waterways for smooth flow of water, namely the cold water pipe 11, the hot water pipe 12 and the warm water pipe 13, are formed. Compared with directly providing a complete pipeline on the waterway base 14 or the waterway cover 15, the process is simpler, the required parts can be produced by stamping, and demoulding is easy, thereby reducing production costs and improving production efficiency.
[0035] The first sealing ring 17, the second sealing ring 18 and the third sealing ring 19 are respectively arranged in the cold water pipe 11, the hot water pipe 12 and the warm water pipe 13. The cold water inlet 21, the hot water inlet 23 and the warm water outlet 24 of the heat exchanger 2 are all provided with joint sealing rings 25. The sealing ring material can be selected from rubber, silicone or polytetrafluoroethylene according to different application occasions. The main characteristics of the rubber sealing ring are softness, wear resistance, corrosion resistance, and easy processing into different shapes and sizes. Common rubber materials include nitrile rubber, fluororubber, silicone rubber, etc. They can be used for a long time in different temperature ranges, but their respective applicable temperature ranges and chemical corrosion resistance are different. Silicone sealing ring is a high-temperature and durable sealing ring material that can be used in different temperature ranges and has excellent properties such as high temperature resistance, radiation resistance, oxidation resistance, acid and alkali corrosion resistance and electrical insulation. Compared with rubber materials, silicone sealing rings can be used for a long time in a higher temperature range and can maintain their sealing performance in harsh environments. Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) is also one of the commonly used sealing ring materials. It has the characteristics of non-stickiness, low friction coefficient, high chemical stability, and corrosion resistance, which ensures the stability and reliability of direct drinking water equipment.
[0036] In this embodiment, the heat exchanger 2 and the heating pipe 3 are respectively installed on both sides of the waterway plate 1, wherein the hot water inlet 23 and the cold water outlet 22 of the heat exchanger 2 are arranged below the heat exchanger 2 and maintain the same horizontal height; the cold water inlet 21 and the warm water outlet 24 are arranged at the same horizontal height above the heat exchanger 2. The water flow direction of the cold water pipe 11 in the waterway plate 1 is opposite to that of the hot water pipe 12. Cold water flows into the cold water exchange pipe from the cold water inlet 21 above the heat exchanger 2 and flows out from the cold water outlet 22 below; hot water flows into the hot water exchange pipe from the hot water inlet 23 below the heat exchanger 2. After heat exchange occurs in the heat exchanger 2, the temperature is reduced to warm water and flows out from the warm water outlet 24 above. The flow direction of cold water in the heat exchanger 2 is opposite to that of hot water, which improves the overall heat exchange efficiency and speeds up the cooling speed.
[0037] Embodiment 2
[0038] like Figure 6 As shown, this embodiment is similar to the first embodiment, except that a water pump assembly 4 is further provided on the waterway plate 1 of this embodiment. The water pump assembly 4 includes a water pump 41, a water inlet pipe 42 and a water outlet pipe 43. The water inlet pipe 42 and the water outlet pipe 43 are both connected and arranged on the water pump assembly. The water inlet pipe 42 is connected to the cold water outlet 22 on the heat exchanger 2, and the water outlet pipe 43 is connected to the inlet of the heating pipe 3. The cold water in the heat exchanger 2 flows into the water pump 41 from the water inlet pipe 42, flows out from the water outlet pipe 43, and enters the interior of the heating pipe 3 for heating. The water pump 41 can be a micro DC centrifugal pump. When used in an intelligent water dispenser, only a head of 3m-5m is required to meet the use requirements. The material of the water pump 41 should be food-grade high temperature resistant material, and the water pump should remain silent during operation. The water pump 41 can increase the hydraulic pressure, provide sufficient power for the flow of water in the subsequent stroke, the water flow speed after pressurization is fast, the heat exchange efficiency in the heat exchanger 2 is improved, and the overall response speed of the device is faster.
[0039] Embodiment 3

The water temperature regulating assembly 5 includes a regulating cavity 51, a first inlet 52, a second inlet 53, a first outlet 54 and a second outlet 55. The first inlet 52, the second inlet 53, the first outlet 54 and the second outlet 55 are all connected and arranged on the regulating cavity 51.

The water temperature regulating assembly 5 is provided with a temperature sensor and a solenoid valve for controlling the switch state of the first inlet 52, the second inlet 53, the first outlet 54 and the second outlet 55. The temperature sensor is arranged in the regulating cavity 51, and the temperature sensor is connected to the solenoid valve. When the user needs boiling water, the solenoid valve controls the first inlet 52 to open and the second inlet 53 to close, and the boiling water boiled by the heating tube 3 enters the hot water pipe 12 of the water circuit board 1, and flows into the first inlet 52 from the first hot water pipe 12 outlet of the hot water pipe 12. After the temperature sensor detects that the water temperature inside the regulating cavity 51 exceeds 95°C, the first outlet 54 is controlled to open and the second outlet 55 is controlled to close, and the water flows out from the first outlet 54; when it is detected that the water temperature has not reached 95°C, the first outlet 54 is controlled to close and the second outlet 55 is controlled to open, and the water that does not meet the temperature requirement flows out from the second outlet 55. When the user needs warm water of a specific temperature, the solenoid valve opens the first inlet 52 and the second inlet 53 at the same time, and the hot water in the outlet of the first hot water pipe 12 flows into the regulating cavity 51 from the first inlet 52, and the warm water at the outlet of the warm water pipe 13 flows into the regulating cavity 51 from the second inlet 53. The water flows are mixed in the regulating cavity 51. When the temperature of the water flow in the regulating cavity 51 has not reached the temperature specified by the user, the temperature sensor controls the solenoid valve to close the first outlet 54 and open the second outlet 55 to discharge the water flow inside the regulating cavity 51. When the temperature of the water flow in the regulating cavity 51 reaches the specified temperature, the temperature sensor opens the first outlet 54 and closes the second outlet 55 to provide warm water of the specified temperature to the user. This embodiment is intelligent and efficient, with a small structure and volume, and can be set inside an intelligent water dispenser to provide boiling water and warm water of the user-specified temperature at the same time.
