Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of water heaters, in particular to a small molecular cluster water generator and a water heater. Background Art

[0002] To protect the skin from the sun's ultraviolet rays, the sebaceous glands, which are widely distributed across the skin's surface, secrete a layer of oil. This oil is evenly distributed across the skin's surface, but if this dense layer of oil is not removed over time or is not removed thoroughly, the oil accumulated on the skin's surface will become corrupted and deteriorate, affecting skin health. Therefore, it is essential to remove surface oil within a reasonable range. For young women, products containing chemical agents are commonly used to remove surface oil, but these agents can damage the skin. As one of the three major immune systems and the outermost protective barrier, the skin constantly protects the body from external aggressors. Therefore, developing a reagent that can cleanly and thoroughly remove the surface oil film on the skin without damaging it is crucial.

[0003] After natural water passes through a magnetic field, the hydrogen bonds of the associated large molecular clusters of water twist, deform, and break in a magnetic field perpendicular to the water inlet direction, thereby forming multiple small molecular clusters of water with 6 to 10 molecules. Small molecular clusters of water have the characteristics of small clusters, high activity, strong diffusion ability, and low viscosity. In particular, during the process of homolytic splitting of hydrogen bonds, isolated free radicals (hydroxyl, amino, etc.) are formed, which can be connected with the hydrophobic groups (hydroxyl, amino, nitro, etc.) in oils and fats to form new hydrogen bonds. In the process of hydrogen bond rebonding, the oil on the surface of the skin and hair is removed. At the same time, after being replenished to the stratum corneum through the skin, the small molecular clusters of water combine with the original free radicals in the human body due to their rapid diffusion and rebonding ability, thereby achieving the purpose of scavenging free radicals and delaying skin aging.

[0004] Currently, there is little research on small-molecular-cluster water, and there are also few devices that can be easily manufactured and can generate stable and controllable water. Some patents and literature have briefly introduced small-molecular-cluster water generators, but the small-molecular-cluster water generators that can be realized are expensive and not easy to manufacture and install.

[0005] Therefore, it is necessary to provide an improved technical solution to the above-mentioned deficiencies in the prior art. Utility Model Content

[0037] The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and in conjunction with examples. Each example is provided by way of explanation of the present invention and does not limit the present invention. In fact, it will be clear to those skilled in the art that modifications and variations can be made in the present invention without departing from the scope or spirit of the present invention.

They are only for the convenience of describing the present invention and do not require that the present invention be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be understood as limiting the present invention. The terms "connected", "connected" and "disposed" used in the present invention should be understood in a broad sense. For example, they can mean fixed connection or detachable connection; direct connection or indirect connection through an intermediate component; wired electrical connection, radio connection, or wireless communication signal connection. For those skilled in the art, the specific meanings of the above terms can be understood according to the specific circumstances.

[0039] like Figure 1 、 Figure 2 、 Figure 3 As shown, the embodiment of the present invention provides a small molecular cluster water generator, comprising a cylindrical shell 1 (for example, cylindrical) and a main body 2 arranged in the shell 1. For the convenience of description, the definition Figure 1 The upper part of the middle is the top, Figure 1 The lower portion is the lower portion. The upper end of the housing 1 is provided with a water inlet connector 3, and the lower end of the housing 1 is provided with a water outlet connector 4. In this embodiment, the upper end of the housing 1 is sealed, and the water inlet connector 3 is provided on the side. The main body 2 is provided with a mounting groove 21 along its circumference, within which a magnet 5 is positioned. A water channel 22 is provided within the main body 2, extending axially along the main body 2. The length of the water channel 22 is perpendicular to the magnetic field of the magnet 5. One end of the water channel 22 is connected to the water inlet connector 3, and the other end is connected to the water outlet connector 4.

[0040] When the small molecule cluster water generator provided by the embodiment of the present invention is in use, the bathing water flows from the water inlet joint 3 into the water channel 22 in the main body 2. Since a magnet 5 is installed in the mounting groove 21 provided on the main body 2, the direction of the magnetic field generated is perpendicular to the direction of the water flow in the water channel 22. Therefore, the water flow can be evenly and fully cut by the magnetic field. After flowing out of the magnetic field, a certain amount of small molecule cluster water is formed and flows out from the water outlet joint 4 at the bottom of the main body 2. The small molecule cluster water generator provided by the embodiment of the present invention has a simple structure, low cost, easy installation, and can stably generate a high content of small molecule cluster water. The small molecule cluster water can not only remove the grease overflowing from the surface of the skin and hair, but also enter the stratum corneum, remove free radicals in the human body, thereby delaying skin aging, and replenishing water and anti-wrinkle for the skin.

[0041] In order to obtain a higher content of small molecular water, such as Figure 4 、 Figure 8 As shown, in one embodiment of the present invention, the water channel 22 includes a plurality of segmented water channels 220 extending axially along the main body, and the segmented water channels 220 are connected end to end to form an S-shape. In this embodiment, bathing water flows from the water inlet joint 3 into a segmented water channel 220 of the water channel 22, is evenly and fully cut by the magnetic field, flows out of the magnetic field, enters the adjacent segmented water channel 220, and is evenly and fully cut by the magnetic field again (the direction of the water flow is opposite to that of the previous segmented water channel 220, but still perpendicular to the direction of the magnetic field). The water body that has completed the second magnetic field cutting flows into the third segmented water channel 220 for the third magnetic field cutting, and the cycle continues. The water body that has completed multiple magnetic field cuttings forms a high content of small molecular cluster water, and finally flows into the water outlet joint 4 connected to the last segmented water channel 220 and flows out. Multiple segmented water channels 220 are connected end to end. The tap water flowing in from the water inlet end of the first segmented water channel 220 is cut by the magnetic field in each segmented water channel 220 in a circular cycle, which can effectively extend the time the water body is in the magnetic field, enhance the magnetic field's ability to treat the water body, and increase the output of small molecular cluster water.

[0042] like Figure 4 As shown, in one embodiment of the present invention, multiple segmented water channels 220 are arranged along the circumference of the main body 2 to form a circle, and the mounting slots 21 extend axially along the main body 2 and are located between two adjacent segmented water channels 220. In this embodiment, magnets 5 are placed in each mounting slot 21 in a specific orientation (the N-pole of one magnet is adjacent to the S-pole of another magnet, forming a closed loop...NSNS...) so that each segmented water channel 220 is provided with a magnet 5 on both sides. This can enhance the magnetic field strength and help increase the content of small molecular water clusters.

[0043] like Figure 4As shown, in one embodiment of the present invention, the number of the segmented water channels 220 and the number of the mounting grooves 21 are both three, and the cross-sections of the segmented water channels 220 and the mounting grooves 21 are fan-shaped. In this embodiment, the main body 2 is evenly divided into six fan-shaped spaces along the circumference, and the evenly divided fan-shaped spaces are used to form the mounting grooves 21 and the segmented water channels 220. The mounting grooves 21 and the segmented water channels 220 are arranged alternately (mounting groove-segmented water channel-mounting groove-segmented water channel-mounting groove-segmented water channel).

[0044] Furthermore, if Figure 4-Figure 7 As shown, for ease of processing, the segmented water channel 220 and the mounting groove 21 are both located within the main body 2. The segmented water channel 220 comprises a first water channel 221, a second water channel 222, and a third water channel 223. The top of the first water channel 221 communicates with the water inlet connector 3, and the bottom of the first water channel 221 communicates with the bottom of the second water channel 222 within the main body 2. The top of the main body 2 is provided with a first water channel opening 23 corresponding to the tops of the second water channel 222 and the third water channel 223, as well as a mounting opening 24 corresponding to the top of the mounting groove 21. The mounting opening 24 is sealed with sealant. The bottom of the main body 2 is provided with a second water channel opening 25 corresponding to the bottom of the third water channel 223. The second water channel opening 25 is connected to the water outlet connector 4. In this embodiment, the magnets 5 are first installed into each mounting groove 21 through the mounting opening 24. The mounting opening 24 is then sealed with a sealant, such as AB glue or epoxy resin, to prevent the magnets 5 from rusting. Then the main body 2 is installed in the housing 1 as a whole. Figure 3 、 Figure 8 As shown, a cavity 11 is formed between the top of the main body 2 and the top of the housing 1. Water in the first water channel 221 flows downward, then upward from the bottom of the second water channel 222, into the cavity 11 through the first water channel opening 23 at the top of the second water channel 222, and then flows downward from the first water channel opening 23 at the top of the third water channel 223 into the third water channel 223, and finally flows into the water outlet connector 4 from the second water channel opening 25 at the bottom of the third water channel 223. The three segmented water channels 220 are connected end to end. Tap water flowing in from the water inlet of the first water channel 221 is repeatedly cut by the magnetic field in each segmented water channel 220, effectively extending the time the water remains in the magnetic field, improving the magnetic field's ability to treat water, and increasing the production of small molecular cluster water.

[0045] To maximize the performance of the generator while meeting national standards, the main body 2 preferably has an outer diameter of φ28 to φ35, with the internal space divided into six equal sections along the circumference. Each segmented waterway 220, calculated based on its cross-sectional area, can be equivalent to a φ12 pipe diameter (the water flow pipe diameter within the water heater body is generally φ12; a diameter lower than this will result in insufficient hot water production). In this embodiment, the use of such a large cross-sectional area water channel not only ensures that the water is cut by the magnetic field, but also does not affect the bathing experience.

[0046] like Figure 9 、 Figure 10 As shown, in one embodiment of the present invention, the bottom of the magnet 5 is provided with a downwardly protruding positioning portion 51, and the bottom of the mounting slot 21 is provided with a limiting groove 211 corresponding in shape to the positioning portion 51. The limiting groove 211 can engage with the positioning portion 51 at the bottom of the magnet 5, ensuring that the magnet 5 is quickly installed in the predetermined direction, improving installation efficiency and accuracy. Furthermore, the cross-section of the magnet 5 is also fan-shaped to fit closely with the inner wall of the mounting slot 21, preventing the magnet 5 from shaking.

[0047] During the assembly process of the main body 2 and the housing 1, it is difficult to align the water inlet end of the water channel 22 with the water inlet connector 3, which will cause the generator to be blocked because the water flow cannot enter the main body 2; at the same time, due to the turbulent flow of water, the water flow impacts the water channel 22, causing the main body 2 to rotate in the circumferential direction, causing the water inlet end of the water channel 22 to be misaligned with the water inlet connector 3, resulting in the generator being blocked and unable to work normally. In order to solve the above problems, as Figure 4 、 Figure 6 As shown, in one embodiment of the present invention, the inner wall of the housing 1 is provided with an anti-rotation protrusion 12, and the outer wall of the main body 2 is provided with an anti-rotation groove 26 corresponding to the anti-rotation protrusion 12. The anti-rotation groove 26 can cooperate with the anti-rotation protrusion 12 to not only ensure that the water inlet end of the water channel 22 is aligned with the water inlet connector 3 during assembly, but also ensure that the main body 2 does not change position with the water flow, avoiding misalignment between the water inlet end of the water channel 22 and the water inlet connector 3, which may cause the generator to be blocked.

[0048] like Figure 3 As shown, in one embodiment of the present invention, a sealing ring mounting groove is provided at the bottom of the main body 2, in which a sealing ring 6 of a certain size is placed, which seals axially. Furthermore, the water outlet joint 4 and the housing 1 are detachably connected to facilitate assembly between the main body 2 and the housing 1. Preferably, axial and radial sealing grooves are provided at the connection between the housing 1 and the water outlet joint 4, and the O-rings placed in the sealing grooves can seal axially and radially. The triple-seal structure ensures that the water is processed in an orderly manner within the generator, effectively preventing water leakage accidents.

[0049] like Figure 11As shown, the present invention also provides a water heater, including the above-mentioned small-molecule water generator. The water heater can be an electric water heater, a gas water heater, a dual-purpose boiler, etc. Specifically, the water heater includes a water heater body 7, which is provided with a water inlet pipe 71 and a water outlet pipe 72, and the small-molecule water generator is provided on the water outlet pipe 72.

[0050] The water heater provided by the present invention has an efficient and low-cost small molecular cluster water generator, which is suitable for domestic hot water supply. Tap water enters the water heater body 7 through the water inlet pipe 71, and after detection and feedback by various sensors and controllers and precise temperature and constant flow control, it flows into the heat exchange module to form bathing water. The bathing water flows from the water inlet joint 3 of the small molecular cluster water generator into the water channel 22 in the main body 2, and after being cut by the magnetic field, it flows into the water outlet pipe 72 of the water heater body 7 through the water outlet joint 4, and continuously flows out a high content of small molecular cluster water after passing through the water-using appliance.

[0051] The water heater of the utility model can stably provide users with small-molecule cluster water with a generation rate of not less than 5%. The small-molecule cluster water has the following functions:

[0052] (1) Small molecular water clusters can freely enter and exit the skin water channels (≥2 nanometers) due to their small particle size (1.5 nanometers), achieving deep hydration when the skin epidermis is saturated and clearing melanin deposited in the spinous cortex;

[0053] (2) The hydrated ions passing through the magnetic field of the small molecular water generator are not easy to nucleate, which can effectively inhibit scale and prevent hard scale from depositing on the surface of the heat exchange tube, causing local heating of the heat exchange tube, corrosion and leakage;

[0054] (3) Small water molecules have a large number of broken hydrogen bonds, forming free radicals on their surface. These free radicals can better combine with functional groups such as hydroxyl, carboxyl, and amino groups to re-form hydrogen bonds. During the rapid division of bacteria, deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) needs to replicate quickly. Because DNA has a large number of hydroxyl groups, the large number of broken hydrogen bonds of small water molecules can combine with DNA, causing replication failure, thereby inhibiting the generation of a large number of bacteria (Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli).

[0055] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Those skilled in the art will readily appreciate that the present invention is susceptible to various modifications and variations. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, or improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present invention shall be included within the scope of protection of the present invention.
