Detailed implementation manners

[0027] To make the objectives, technical solutions and advantages of the present utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0028] It should be noted that all the expressions using "first" and "second" in the embodiments of the present utility model are used to distinguish two entities or parameters with the same name but different, so "first" and "second" are only for the convenience of expression and should not be construed as a limitation on the embodiments of the present utility model. This will not be elaborated one by one in the subsequent embodiments.

[0029] The directional and positional terms mentioned in this utility model, such as up, down, front, back, left, right, inside, outside, top, bottom, side, etc., are only references to the directions or positions in the attached drawings. Therefore, the directional and positional terms used are for the purpose of explaining and understanding this utility model, rather than limiting the protection scope of this utility model.

[0030] A novel flow switch type dosing valve, comprising a pipeline assembly. The pipeline assembly includes a water inlet pipe 8, an intermediate pipeline 12, and a water outlet pipe 13 connected in sequence. The water inlet pipe 8 and the water outlet pipe 13 are arranged in parallel with opposite internal flow directions, and the intermediate pipeline 12 is vertically connected therebetween. The outer ends of the water inlet pipe 8 and the water outlet pipe 13 respectively form a water inlet 1 and a water outlet 2.

[0031] One end of the water inlet pipe 8 connected to the intermediate pipeline 12 is connected with a solenoid valve 14 for controlling the on-off of the fluid. A sterilizing liquid dosing pipe 17, a laundry detergent dosing pipe 18, and two resistance probes 19 are connected to the water outlet pipe 13. The sterilizing liquid dosing pipe 17 and the laundry detergent dosing pipe 18 are respectively used to connect to a sterilizing liquid conveying pipeline and a laundry detergent conveying pipeline with conveying power. Second check valves are provided in both the sterilizing liquid dosing pipe 17 and the laundry detergent dosing pipe 18 to enable the one-way conveyance of the fluid in the sterilizing liquid dosing pipe 17 and the laundry detergent dosing pipe 18, so as to achieve that when and only when the conveying power works, the second check valve opens for conveyance. The two resistance probes 19 are respectively arranged near the outlets of the sterilizing liquid dosing pipe 17 and the laundry detergent dosing pipe 18, and the residual in the pipe is monitored by measuring the resistance in the pipe. A pressure relief pipe 15 and a pressure detection device 16 are connected to the intermediate pipeline 12. When the solenoid valve 14 is closed and stops working, a third check valve is fixed in the pressure relief pipe 15. The water flow in the intermediate pipeline 12 and the water outlet pipe 13 still needs to be emptied from the water outlet 2, which will form a negative pressure. At this time, the third check valve quickly opens to admit air to balance the pressure in the intermediate pipeline 12 and the water outlet pipe 13. The external connections of the sterilizing liquid and laundry detergent dosing ports are relatively viscous liquids, so it is not easy to enter the pipe due to negative pressure. The pressure detection device 16 is used to detect the real-time pressure in the pipeline.

[0032] As Figure 2 shown, a filter screen 11, a first check valve 10, and a flow switch are sequentially arranged in the water inlet pipe 8. As Figure 3 shown, the flow switch includes a movable part 5. Under the action of the fluid thrust in the fluid passage, the movable part 5 makes a linear motion relative to the pipeline assembly. The movable part 5 includes a magnetic component 501, and a pressure part 7 is provided. The pressure part 7 forms a force on the movable part 5 opposite to the fluid direction in the fluid passage. As Figure 1 shown, a magnetic induction switch 6 matched with the magnetic component 501 is arranged outside the pipeline assembly. When a water flow is formed in the fluid passage, the magnetic induction switch 6 emits a signal.

[0033] Specifically, the magnetic induction switch 6 uses a reed switch. A reed switch, also known as a magnetic reed switch, has two metal reed contacts made of soft magnetic materials inside. When the fluid in the fluid passage pushes the moving part 5 to be in circulation, the magnetic component 501 approaches, causing the two metal reed contacts to attract and close each other, thus conducting the circuit and then outputting a signal.

[0034] Further, a spring seat 3 and a fixed seat 4 are fixedly arranged inside the pipeline assembly. The spring seat 3 and the fixed seat 4 are respectively provided with a first fluid port 301 and a second fluid port 401; the moving part 5 is arranged between the spring seat 3 and the fixed seat 4, and the pressure part 7 is a spring arranged between the spring seat 3 and the moving part 5. The spring seat 3 is composed of an intermediate limiting ring and a plurality of connecting bars connecting the intermediate limiting ring and the inner wall of the water inlet pipe 8. Third fluid ports are formed between the connecting bars. Figure 2 、 Figure 3 In, the cross-sectional area is at the connecting bars of the spring seat 3.

[0035] Further, as Figure 4 、 Figure 5 shown, the moving part 5 has a cylindrical mating part 502 and a first limiting step 503 with a conical surface. As Figure 6 shown, the second fluid port 401 has a circular hole part 402 and a second limiting step 403 with a conical surface. The circular hole part 402 is adapted to the cylindrical mating part 502. Only under the thrust of the pressure part 7, the cylindrical mating part 502 is located in the circular hole part 402 and the first limiting step 503 and the second limiting step 403 form a limiting fit. The cylindrical mating part 502 further reduces the possibility of foreign object extrusion, and the cylindrical mating part 502 cooperates with the circular hole part 402 of the fixed seat 4, so that the entire plane of the moving part 5 receives the impact of water pressure, avoiding the situation of foreign object jamming.

[0036] Further, the moving part 5 has a limiting rod 504, and the limiting rod 504 has a clearance fit with the first fluid port 301. This reduces the occurrence of wear. Further, an over-flow groove 505 is provided on the limiting rod 504 to increase the over-flow area.

[0037] Further, as Figure 7 shown, the end face of the spring seat 3 close to the fixed seat 4 axially protrudes circumferentially around the first fluid port 301 to form a first spring limiting ring 302. The bottom of the limiting rod 504 protrudes radially circumferentially to form a second spring limiting ring 506. The pressure part 7 is sleeved outside the limiting rod 504 and its two ends are respectively sleeved on the first spring limiting ring 302 and the second spring limiting ring 506 to form positioning.

[0038] Further, the spring seat 3 is integrally formed on the inner wall of the water inlet pipe 8, the fixed seat 4 is separately arranged from the water inlet pipe 8, and the water inlet 1 constitutes the installation port of the movable member 5 and the fixed seat 4. Further, a third limiting step 801 is provided on the inner wall of the water inlet pipe 8, a solderless cover 9 is connected in the water inlet pipe 8, and the fixed seat 4 is fixedly connected to the water inlet pipe 8 by being limited between the third limiting step 801 and the solderless cover 9. With such a setting, when assembling this embodiment, when installing the flow switch, each part can be sequentially inserted from the water inlet 1.

[0039] The germicidal liquid delivery pipe 17 and the laundry detergent delivery pipe 18 are vertically connected to the water outlet pipe 13 and arranged on the same side, and two resistance probes 19 are vertically connected to the water outlet pipe 13 and located opposite to the germicidal liquid delivery pipe 17 and the laundry detergent delivery pipe 18. Two second check valves are stacked in both the germicidal liquid delivery pipe 17 and the laundry detergent delivery pipe 18 to form a double leak-proof effect.

[0040] The foregoing disclosure is only for the preferred embodiments of the present invention, and of course it cannot be used to limit the scope of rights of the present invention. Therefore, equivalent changes made according to the claims of the present invention still fall within the scope covered by the present invention.
