Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of copper valves, and particularly relates to a copper valve with a reverse osmosis function. Background Technique
[0002] Copper valves are a kind of pipeline control devices widely used in industrial, civil and commercial water supply systems, and are favored for their excellent corrosion resistance, mechanical strength and long service life. Copper materials can effectively resist common corrosive substances in water, such as chlorine, sulfides, etc., so copper valves are widely used in water treatment, building water supply systems and heating systems. Copper valves are usually used to regulate and control the flow of fluids, including basic functions such as opening, closing, and regulating the flow rate.
[0003] However, in domestic and industrial water systems, the water may contain heavy metals, bacteria, viruses and other dissolved solid impurities, and these pollutants may affect the health of users and cause equipment damage. Therefore, adding a water purification function, especially a reverse osmosis function with high efficiency in removing impurities in water, on the basis of traditional copper valves has become a solution.
[0004] Reverse osmosis (RO) technology is a commonly used water treatment technology that can remove dissolved solids, heavy metals, organic substances and microorganisms in water through a semi-permeable membrane, so as to obtain high-quality pure water. Traditional reverse osmosis systems are usually independent devices, including complex multi-stage filtration structures, which require a large amount of space and have high installation and maintenance costs. In some domestic and small industrial occasions, users hope to achieve water purification while maintaining water flow control without having to install a separate reverse osmosis system.
[0005] Therefore, integrating the reverse osmosis function into copper valves has become a feasible solution. This integrated design can not only reduce the occupied space of the equipment, but also simplify the installation process, reduce costs and maintenance complexity. In addition, copper valves combined with reverse osmosis technology can also ensure that users can obtain filtered and purified water at any time during the water use process, meeting the high requirements for water quality in domestic daily water use, industrial water use and other occasions. In view of this, we propose a copper valve with a reverse osmosis function. Content of the Utility Model
[0006] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a copper valve with a reverse osmosis function to solve the problems raised in the above background technique.
[0007] To achieve the above purpose, the utility model provides the following technical solutions:

The copper material has good corrosion resistance, which can ensure the long-term stable operation of the device in various water supply systems. The copper valve body is provided with a first water inlet pipe and a first water outlet pipe. The first water inlet pipe is connected to the external water supply pipeline, responsible for introducing water into the system and providing the initial water source for the whole water purification process. The first water outlet pipe transports the water flow controlled by the copper valve body to the subsequent booster pump, which is the water flow transmission channel in the whole system;
[0009] The output end of the first water outlet pipe is connected with a booster pump. By pressurizing the water flow, it ensures that the water pressure reaches the water pressure required for the normal operation of the reverse osmosis membrane element. This component is the key to the reverse osmosis process, ensuring that water can pass through the reverse osmosis membrane under high pressure. The booster pump is provided with a second water inlet pipe and a second water outlet pipe.

The bottom of the circular shell and near the right side is provided with a waste water output pipe, which is responsible for discharging the concentrated water or waste water that has not passed through the membrane during the reverse osmosis process to ensure that impurities in the system do not accumulate and ensure the smooth progress of the whole water purification process.

The right end of the first water outlet pipe is in close contact with the left side of the first annular rubber pad, providing a sealing function at the connection between the first water outlet pipe and the second water inlet pipe and preventing water leakage at the connection.
[0014] Preferably, a fourth annular connecting plate is provided at a position on the outer wall of the third water inlet pipe near the left end. A plurality of mounting holes b are formed on the right side of the fourth annular connecting plate. A second bolt is connected in the mounting hole b. A third annular connecting plate is provided at the right end of the outer wall of the second water outlet pipe. A second thread groove for threaded connection of the second bolt is formed on the right side of the third annular connecting plate.
