[0038] Reference to "embodiment" or "embodiment" herein means that a particular feature, structure or characteristic described in connection with the embodiment or embodiment may be included in at least one embodiment of the present utility model. The phrase appears in various places in the specification and does not necessarily refer to the same embodiment, nor is it an independent or alternative embodiment mutually exclusive with other embodiments. Those skilled in the art explicitly and implicitly understand that the embodiments described herein may be combined with other embodiments.
[0039] In recent years, as a health product, water purification products have received increasing attention from consumers, and the water purification industry has also developed rapidly accordingly. However, in the current related technologies, the water purification equipment is directly connected to the water inlet pipeline when connecting the water circuit, which results in the need for water circuit modification when installing for users who only reserve one water inlet.
[0040] In view of this, the present embodiment provides a water purification device 100, and the water purification device 100 can realize two modes of normal water use and water purifier water use through one water inlet pipeline 10.
[0041] The present utility model provides a water purification device 100, comprising:
[0042] A water inlet pipeline 10;
[0043] A first pipeline 20, the first pipeline 20 has a first end 21 and a second end 22, the first pipeline 20 is connected to the water inlet pipeline 10, and the water inlet pipeline 10 is located between the first end 21 and the second end 22;
[0044] A water purification component 30, the water purification component 30 has a water inlet end 31 and a water outlet end 32, and the second end 22 is connected to the water inlet end 31,
[0045] A second pipeline 40, the second pipeline 40 has a third end 41 and a fourth end 42, and the third end is connected to the water outlet end 32;
[0046] A valve 50, the valve 50 is arranged near the first end 21 of the first pipeline 20;
[0047] The water-using device, both the first end 21 and the fourth end 42 are connected to the water-using device.
[0048] The water purification device 100 is connected to the water inlet pipe 10 through the first pipe 20. The first end 21 can supply water to the water purification component 30, and the second end 22 can be directly connected to the water-using device. In this way, the water supply to the water purification component 30 and the normal water supply can be realized through the first pipeline. Specifically, when filtering water is required, the valve 50 is closed so that the water can only flow out through the second end 22; the water outlet end 32 of the water purification component 30 is connected to the third end 41 of the second pipe 40, and the fourth end 42 is connected to the water-using device. In this way, the purified water can be directly supplied to the water-using device, and thus two modes of normal water use and water purifier water use can be realized through one water inlet pipe 10.
[0049] It can be understood that the water inlet pipe 10 is connected to the water supply pipeline for water supply. The water inlet pipe 10 is connected to the middle part of the first pipeline, that is, arranged between the first end 21 and the second end 22. In this way, the water inlet pipeline 10 can be divided into two paths of water. Among them, the first end 21 can be directly connected to the water-using device to provide a water source for the water supply device, and the second end 22 is connected to the water purification component 30 to provide a water source for the water purification component 30. In order to enable the water source to supply water to the water purification device 100 unidirectionally, a valve 50 is provided in the part close to the first end 21. When the valve 50 is closed, the water can only flow to the second end 22, that is, flow to the water purification component 30; when the valve 50 is opened, the water can flow out through the first end 21 and the second end 22, that is, can be directly supplied to the water-using device or through the water purification component 30.
[0050] The purified water is connected to the third end 41 through the water outlet end 32, and then is supplied to the user or the water-using device through the fourth end 42, so as to realize two modes of normal water use and water purifier water use through one water inlet pipe 10.
[0051] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , in some embodiments, the water purification component 30 includes: a detection member 33, a controller 34, a first one-way valve 35, and a water purification member 36;
[0052] The detection member 33 is arranged in the second pipe 40, and the detection member 33 is used to detect the water quality in the second pipe 40;
[0053] The water purification member 36 has a concentrated water output pipeline, and the first one-way valve 35 is arranged in the concentrated water output pipeline;
[0054] The controller 34 is electrically connected to the detection member 33 and the plurality of first one-way valves 35, and sends an adjustment instruction to the one-way valve according to the detection result of the detection member 33.
[0055] It can be understood that the water purification component 36 can be a water purification filter element or a water purifier. The water inlet end 31 and the water outlet end 32 of the water purification assembly 30 are the water inlet end 31 and the water outlet end 32 of the water purification component 36. The detection component 33 is arranged in the second pipeline 40. Before the water in the water inlet pipeline 10 enters the water purification component 36, the detection component 33 can adjust the water flow rate entering the water purification component 36 according to the currently detected state of the water purification component 36.
[0056] Specifically, when the water inlet conditions in the water purification component 36 change, the water output of the concentrated water is dynamically adjusted. For example: when the amount of untreated water increases, by increasing the water output of the concentrated water output pipeline, it can ensure that the increased untreated water is filtered in time, and avoid causing fluctuations in the filtration performance of the reverse osmosis filter element; or, when the quality of the untreated water decreases, by increasing the water output of the concentrated water output pipeline, the surface of the RO (Reverse Osmosis membrane) of the reverse osmosis filter element can be rinsed with the untreated water, thereby improving the filtration efficiency.
[0057] For another example, when the detection component 33 detects that the pressure in the second pipeline 40 is relatively high, the controller 34 can control the first one-way valve 35 to open, so that the water flow entering the water purification component 36 is discharged through the concentrated water output pipeline, to reduce the pressure of the water purification component 36 and avoid damage to the water purification component 36 caused by high water pressure.
[0058] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 In some embodiments, the water purification assembly 30 further includes: a concentrated water tank 37;
[0059] The concentrated water tank 37 is communicated with the concentrated water output pipeline, and the concentrated water tank 37 is used for storing the concentrated water from the water purification component 36;
[0060] A water overflow port is arranged at the top of the concentrated water tank 37, and a second one-way valve 90 is arranged at the water overflow port.
[0061] It can be understood that the concentrated water tank 37 is connected to the concentrated water connection pipeline and is used for storing the concentrated water generated by the water purification assembly 30. Users can choose to use the stored concentrated water according to actual needs, which can reduce the waste of water resources. A water overflow port is arranged at the top of the concentrated water tank 37, and a one-way valve is arranged at the water overflow port. When the water in the concentrated water tank 37 is full, the concentrated water can be discharged from the concentrated water tank 37 through the water overflow port.
[0062] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , in some embodiments, the water purification assembly 30 further includes: a liquid level switch 38;
[0063] The liquid level switch 38 is disposed in the concentrated water tank 37, and the liquid level switch 38 is used to detect the liquid level height in the concentrated water tank 37;
[0064] When the liquid level switch 38 detects that the height of the concentrated water is greater than or equal to a preset height, the second one-way valve 90 is opened to allow the concentrated water to overflow.
[0065] It can be understood that the liquid level switch 38 is disposed in the concentrated water tank 37. The liquid level switch 38 can move along with the water level height of the concentrated water tank 37 and detect the current liquid level height of the concentrated water in the tank. When the liquid level switch 38 detects that the height of the concentrated water is greater than or equal to a preset height, the second one-way valve 90 is opened to allow the concentrated water to overflow. This can prevent the concentrated water stored in the concentrated water tank 37 from overflowing, and the concentrated water will not overflow and leak to places such as the desktop and the floor.
[0066] Please refer to Figures 1 to 3 , in some embodiments, the water purification device 100 further includes: a water pump 39;
[0067] The water pump 39 is disposed in the concentrated water tank 37. The water pump 39 is communicated with the second pipeline 40, and the water pump 39 is connected to the controller 34.
[0068] To facilitate the utilization of the concentrated water in the concentrated water tank 37, a water pump 39 is provided in the concentrated water tank 37. The concentrated water in the concentrated water tank 37 is pumped out by the water pump 39, and the water pump 39 can also be connected to a water-using device for the user to use. By providing the water pump 39, a higher delivery water pressure can be achieved to send the concentrated water to the end used by the user, so as to improve the user experience.
[0069] Please refer to Figure 3 and Figure 4 , in some embodiments, the water purification device 100 further includes: a third pipeline 70;
[0070] One end of the third pipeline 70 is connected to the second pipeline 40, and the other end of the third pipeline 70 is connected to the concentrated water outlet.
[0071] It can be understood that the third pipeline 70 is connected to the second pipeline 40, so that the second pipeline 40 can output both concentrated water and purified water, or can output a mixed water of concentrated water and purified water. For example, when the user selects to output unpurified water, the water in the concentrated water tank 37 can be directly transported to the user end by the water pump, so as to ensure that the concentrated water in the concentrated water tank 37 does not overflow and is not wasted, and since the quality of the concentrated water is better than that of the unpurified water, it will not affect the water quality provided to the user.
[0072] When the user needs to use purified water, the water pump 39 can be turned off so that the second pipeline 40 only outputs purified water, thus meeting the diverse needs of the user.
[0073] Please refer to Figure 4 , in some embodiments, the water purification device 100 further includes: a third one-way valve 80, which is arranged on the second pipeline 40 and connected to the controller 34, and the third one-way valve 80 is closed when purifying water is output.
[0074] It can be understood that the third one-way valve 80 is arranged on the side of the second pipeline 40 close to the water purification component 36. The third one-way valve 80 can also be arranged on the third pipeline. The third one-way valve 80 can close the third pipeline when purified water is output, thus avoiding the output of concentrated water when purified water is output, resulting in a low purity of the output purified water. When it is necessary to output mixed water or concentrated water, the third one-way valve 80 is opened to output concentrated water into the second pipeline.
[0075] In some embodiments, the detection component 33 is any one of a temperature sensor, a water pressure sensor, and a water quality sensor.
[0076] It can be understood that the detection component 33 can be a temperature sensor, a water pressure sensor, or a water quality sensor. Preferably, the above detection component 33 is a water pressure sensor. The water pressure sensor detects the water inlet pressure of the water purifier. When the water inlet pressure is greater than a preset value, the valve 50 can be controlled to close slightly to reduce the water purification pressure and avoid damaging the water purification component 36.
[0077] In some embodiments, when the detection component 33 is a water quality sensor, the water quality sensor is arranged in the second pipeline 40.
[0078] It can be understood that the water quality sensor is arranged in the second pipeline 40 to detect the water quality of the water output in the second pipeline 40. When the water quality of the output purified water is detected to be poor, the user can be reminded to replace the filter element.
[0079] In some embodiments, the water quality sensor includes at least one of the following: total dissolved solids, conductivity, turbidity, total organic carbon content, residual chlorine content, pH value, and hardness. By detecting the above data by the water quality sensor, the purity of the currently output purified water can be reflected.
[0080] In some embodiments, a backflow valve 91 is arranged on the side of the first pipeline 20 close to the second end 22;
[0081] It can be understood that the above-mentioned backflow valve 91 can reduce the pressure of the water-using device. Specifically, after the water purification component 30 stops water production, there is a relatively large pressure in the water path at the second end 22, and the water in this pipeline will flow reversely towards the first end 21, causing a relatively large pressure burden on the water-using device at the first end 21, and may even cause damage or leakage of the water-using device at the first end 21. When the backflow valve 91 is set, the water flow back to the first end 21 can be avoided, and the water-using device at the first end 21 can be prevented from being damaged.
[0082] In the present utility model, the mention of "embodiment" and "implementation manner" means that the specific features, structures or characteristics described in combination with the embodiment can be included in at least one embodiment of the present utility model. The appearance of the phrase at various positions in the specification does not necessarily refer to the same embodiment, nor is it an independent or alternative embodiment mutually exclusive with other embodiments. Those skilled in the art will explicitly and implicitly understand that the embodiments described in the present utility model can be combined with other embodiments. In addition, it should also be understood that the features, structures or characteristics described in each embodiment of the present utility model can be arbitrarily combined with each other without contradiction to form another embodiment that does not depart from the spirit and scope of the technical solution of the present utility model.
[0083] Finally, it should be noted that the above implementation manners are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present utility model and not to limit them. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the above preferred implementation manners, those of ordinary skill in the art should understand that the technical solutions of the present utility model can be modified or equivalently replaced without departing from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the present utility model.
