Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of household electrical appliances, and in particular to a gas distribution device, a mold and a water heater. Background Art

[0002] A gas water heater is a commonly used hot water preparation device in households. It works by using gas as fuel, transferring heat through combustion heating to cold water flowing through a heat exchanger to achieve the purpose of preparing hot water.

[0003] The gas distribution device (or gas distribution rod) is one of the core components of the gas water heater. It is mainly used for gas distribution and can improve the combustion efficiency of the gas. The working principle of the gas distribution rod is that after the gas enters the main gas duct of the gas distribution rod, it flows out through the nozzles of the gas distribution rod and sprays toward the burner, thereby distributing the gas source for the burner combustion. The existing gas distribution rod is provided with a nozzle on the main gas duct, and the secondary pressure can be detected through the main gas duct nozzle. If the flow diameter of the main gas duct and the nozzle is too small, it will cause the water heater load to exceed the standard and the flue gas to exceed the standard when the secondary pressure meets the requirements. If the flow diameter of the main gas duct and the nozzle is too large, it will easily cause the side wall of the main gas duct to rupture, and there is a risk of cross-gas. Utility Model Content

[0004] In view of this, the present invention provides an air distribution device, a mold and a water heater to solve the problem that the existing air distribution rod easily causes the water heater load to exceed the standard or easily causes the side wall of the main air channel to rupture when performing secondary pressure detection.

[0005] In a first aspect, the present invention provides a gas separation device, comprising:

[0006] ontology;

[0007] An airway is provided in the body, the airway includes a main airway and a first branch airway, and the main airway and the first branch airway can be connected or disconnected;

[0008] a nozzle chamber disposed in the body, the nozzle chamber including a first nozzle chamber, the first nozzle chamber being in communication with the first air channel;

[0009] a nozzle assembly, disposed on the body, the nozzle assembly comprising a first nozzle, a portion of the first nozzle intersecting and communicating with a side wall of the main airway to form an intersecting interface;

[0010] The reinforcing wall structure is a common side wall of the main air channel and the first nozzle cavity, so that the main air channel and the first nozzle cavity are independent of each other, and the reinforcing wall structure protrudes toward the inner side of at least one of the main air channel and the first nozzle cavity.

[0011] Beneficial effect: In the gas distribution device of the present invention, the common side wall of the main air duct and the first nozzle chamber is a reinforced wall structure, and the reinforced wall structure protrudes toward the inner side of at least one of the main air duct and the first nozzle chamber to increase the thickness and strength of the common side wall of the main air duct and the first nozzle chamber, ensuring that the main air duct and the first nozzle chamber are independent of each other and will not be connected, thereby reducing the risk of cross-gas. At this time, the caliber size of the interface can be appropriately increased to meet the secondary pressure detection requirements, improve the detection accuracy, and at the same time not increase the load of the water heater, and make the flue gas emissions meet the standard requirements.

[0012] In an optional embodiment, the reinforcing wall structure protrudes toward the inner side of the main air channel, and the cross-sectional area of ​​a portion of the main air channel where the reinforcing wall structure is provided decreases along the gas flow direction.

[0013] Beneficial effect: In the gas distribution device of the present invention, since the setting space in the main airway is larger than the setting space in the first nozzle chamber, the reinforced wall structure protrudes toward the inner side of the main airway to reduce the influence of the reinforced wall structure on the gas source distribution, and the cross-sectional area of ​​the part of the main airway where the reinforced wall structure is provided becomes smaller along the gas flow direction. The reinforced wall structure of this setting method will not hinder the flow of the main airway gas, so as to ensure smooth flow of the main airway gas.

[0014] In an optional embodiment, the reinforced wall structure includes a reinforced surface, the reinforced surface is a plane, and the reinforced surface is arranged at an angle to the axial direction of the main airway.

[0015] Beneficial effects: The gas separation device of the utility model has a reinforced wall structure including a reinforced surface, and the reinforced surface is preferably a plane. This reinforced wall structure is easier to process and shape, which can reduce the processing difficulty and processing cost, and the reinforced surface is set at an angle to the axis of the main airway, that is, the reinforced surface is an inclined surface in the main airway, which does not affect the flow of the main airway gas, thereby ensuring the gas source distribution process of the gas separation device.

[0016] In an optional embodiment, the reinforcement surface is arranged opposite to the interface.

[0017] Beneficial effect: In the gas distribution device of the utility model, the reinforced surface is arranged relative to the interface, so that after the gas flows to the reinforced surface, the reinforced surface can guide the gas, so that more gas enters the interface faster, which is beneficial to improving the gas distribution efficiency and improving the secondary pressure detection efficiency.

[0018] In an optional embodiment, the reinforced wall structure includes a reinforced surface, and the reinforced surface is a curved surface or a stepped surface.

[0019] Beneficial effects: The gas distribution device of the utility model has a reinforced wall structure including a reinforced surface, which can also be a curved surface or a stepped surface, both of which can effectively increase the thickness and strength of the side wall shared by the main air duct and the first nozzle chamber, ensuring that the main air duct and the first nozzle chamber are independent of each other and will not be connected, thereby reducing the risk of cross-gas. Therefore, the caliber size of the interface can be appropriately increased to meet the secondary pressure detection requirements, improve the detection accuracy, and at the same time not increase the load on the water heater, and ensure that the flue gas emissions meet the standard requirements.

[0020] In an optional embodiment, a secondary pressure detection port is further included, wherein the secondary pressure detection port is provided on the main body and is connected to the first nozzle.

[0021] Beneficial effects: The gas separation device of the utility model is provided with a secondary pressure detection port for performing secondary pressure detection, thereby ensuring the safe use of the gas separation device and the water heater.

[0024] At least two assembly structures are spaced apart and arranged on the inner wall of the intersection of the first nozzle cavity and the second nozzle cavity;

[0025] The blocking member can be selectively installed in conjunction with one of the assembly structures to adjust the number of nozzles that can be provided on the side walls of the first nozzle cavity and the second nozzle cavity.

[0026] Beneficial effect: The gas distribution device of the present invention is provided with at least two assembly structures inside the main body, and at least two assembly results are arranged at intervals on the inner wall of the intersection of the first nozzle cavity and the second nozzle cavity. The sealing part can be selectively installed in conjunction with one of the assembly structures. The sealing part cooperates with different assembly structures to adjust the number of nozzles that can be set on the side walls of the first nozzle cavity and the second nozzle cavity. Different numbers of nozzles can match gas water heaters of different powers, so that this gas distribution device can be suitable for gas water heaters of different powers, with high manufacturing flexibility and a wide range of applications. There is no need to separately open a mold or cast the gas distribution device that matches the gas water heater of each load, so that one mold can produce gas distribution devices with different needs, which greatly simplifies the manufacturing process and manufacturing costs.

[0027] In an optional embodiment, the assembly structure includes a step protruding from the inner wall of the intersection of the first nozzle cavity and the second nozzle cavity.

[0028] Beneficial effects: The gas separation device of the utility model has an assembly structure including a step protruding from the inner wall of the intersection of the first nozzle chamber and the second nozzle chamber. This assembly structure is simple and reliable, easy to process and form, and helps to reduce manufacturing costs.

[0029] In an optional embodiment, the inner diameter of the step is larger the closer it is to the second nozzle chamber.

[0030] Beneficial effect: In the gas distribution device of the present invention, since the second nozzle cavity is closer to the operating port than the first nozzle cavity, the inner diameter of the step closer to the second nozzle cavity is larger, which can facilitate the subsequent adjustment of the position of the blocking part and simplify the operation difficulty.

[0031] In an optional embodiment, the side walls of the first nozzle chamber and the second nozzle chamber are each provided with at least two nozzles.

[0032] Beneficial effects: The gas separation device of the utility model is provided with at least two nozzles on the side walls of the first nozzle cavity and the second nozzle cavity, so as to be suitable for gas water heaters of different powers.

[0034] Beneficial effect: The gas distribution device of the utility model has an assembly structure including a first step and a second step, and the first step is closer to the second nozzle chamber than the second step. At this time, when the blocking member is installed in conjunction with the first step or the second step, the number of nozzles set on the side walls of the first nozzle chamber and the second nozzle chamber can be adjusted. Specifically, the blocking member is installed in conjunction with the first step, and the side walls of the first nozzle chamber and the second nozzle chamber are each provided with two nozzles.

[0035] In an optional embodiment, the air channel further includes a third branch air channel, which can be connected to or disconnected from the main air channel, and a second nozzle is provided on a side wall of the third branch air channel.

[0036] Beneficial effect: The gas distribution device of the utility model also includes a third gas distribution channel, which can be connected or disconnected with the main gas channel. The side wall of the third gas distribution channel is provided with a second nozzle. When the first nozzle and the second nozzle spray, it is the second fire power gear of the gas water heater (medium or small fire working state), which meets the different usage needs of users.

[0038] Beneficial effect: The mold of the present invention can manufacture the gas separation device of the present invention. The first core-pulling part of the mold has a first molding structure that matches the reinforced wall structure of the gas separation device to increase the thickness and strength of the common side wall of the main air duct and the first nozzle cavity of the gas separation device, ensuring that the main air duct and the first nozzle cavity are independent of each other and will not be connected, thereby reducing the risk of cross-gas. At this time, the caliber size of the interface can be appropriately increased to meet the secondary pressure detection requirements and improve the detection accuracy without increasing the load of the water heater and ensuring that the flue gas emissions meet the standard requirements.

[0039] In an optional embodiment, it further includes a second core-pulling part, which is connected to the mold body, and the outer wall of the second core-pulling part is formed with a second molding structure that matches the assembly structure of the air separation device.

[0040] Beneficial effect: The mold of the utility model also includes a second core-pulling part, which can form at least two assembly structures at one time, so that this gas distribution device can be suitable for gas water heaters of different powers, with high manufacturing flexibility and a wide range of applications. There is no need to separately open molds and cast gas distribution devices that match gas water heaters of each load, so that one mold can produce gas distribution devices with different needs, which greatly simplifies the manufacturing process and manufacturing costs.

[0069] To make the purpose, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention more clear, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the embodiments described are part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without making creative efforts shall fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0070] On the market, the gas distribution rod is provided with a nozzle on the main air duct, and the secondary pressure test can be performed through the main air duct nozzle. If the flow diameter of the main air duct and the nozzle is too small, the gas entering the secondary pressure measuring port through it is too little, and the gas pressure is very low. When the secondary pressure is adjusted to the required value, the air flow through the main air duct increases, and accordingly, the gas pressure also increases, which will cause the load of the water heater to increase and the flue gas to exceed the standard; and if the inner diameter of the main air duct is increased to increase the flow diameter of the main air duct and the nozzle, it is easy to cause the side wall of the main air duct to be too thin and easy to rupture, so that the main air duct and the chamber set on one side are connected, and the nozzle of the chamber also becomes a normally open nozzle, which does not meet the requirements of segmented and small-load water heaters, resulting in a poor user experience.

[0071] Based on this, this embodiment provides an air distribution device, a mold, a water heater, and a control method.

[0072] The following combination Figures 1-12 , describing the embodiments of the gas distribution device, mold, water heater and control method of the utility model.

[0073] According to an embodiment of the present utility model, an air distribution device is provided, including: a main body 1, an air duct, a nozzle chamber, a nozzle assembly and a reinforcing wall structure, the air duct is arranged in the main body 1, the air duct includes a main air duct 201 and a first sub-air duct 202, the main air duct 201 and the first sub-air duct 202 can be connected or disconnected, the nozzle chamber is arranged in the main body 1, the nozzle chamber includes a first nozzle chamber 301, and the first nozzle chamber 301 is connected to the first sub-air duct 202; the nozzle assembly is arranged in the main body 1, the nozzle assembly includes a first nozzle 501, a part of the first nozzle 501 is connected to the side wall of the main air duct 201 and is connected to form an intersection 9, the reinforcing wall structure is a common side wall of the main air duct 201 and the first nozzle chamber 301, so that the main air duct 201 and the first nozzle chamber 301 are independent of each other, and the reinforcing wall structure protrudes toward the inner side of at least one of the main air duct 201 and the first nozzle chamber 301.

[0074] In this gas distribution device, the common side wall of the main air duct 201 and the first nozzle chamber 301 is a reinforced wall structure, which protrudes toward the inner side of at least one of the main air duct 201 and the first nozzle chamber 301 to increase the thickness and strength of the common side wall of the main air duct 201 and the first nozzle chamber 301, ensuring that the main air duct 201 and the first nozzle chamber 301 are independent of each other and will not be connected, thereby reducing the risk of cross-gas. At this time, the caliber size of the interface 9 can be appropriately increased to meet the secondary pressure detection requirements, improve the detection accuracy, and at the same time not increase the load of the water heater, and ensure that the flue gas emissions meet the standard requirements.

[0075] Secondary pressure detection refers to a test of the gas pressure after passing through the gas distribution device.

[0076] like Figure 1 As shown, the gas distributor has a T-shaped structure and is used to distribute gas to the burner. The gas distributor is made entirely of metal and includes a body 1, which includes a first portion 101 and a second portion 102. In this embodiment, the first portion 101 and the second portion 102 are arranged perpendicular to each other.

[0077] The airway is arranged in the body 1, the air inlet of the airway is suitable for communicating with the air source supply component, and the air outlet of the airway is each nozzle. Figure 2-Figure 3As shown, the airway includes a main airway 201 and a first branch airway 202. The main airway 201 is arranged in the first portion 101 and is arranged along the length direction of the first portion 101. The first branch airway 202 is arranged in the second portion 102 and is arranged along a length direction perpendicular to the second portion 102. Since the first portion 101 and the second portion 102 are arranged perpendicular to each other, the first branch airway 202 is arranged parallel to the main airway 201.

[0078] The first branch air duct 202 is arranged close to the main air duct 201, and the main air duct 201 and the first branch air duct 202 can be connected or disconnected. When the main air duct 201 and the first branch air duct 202 are connected, the gas in the main air duct 201 can enter the first branch air duct 202, and when the main air duct 201 and the first branch air duct 202 are disconnected, the gas in the main air duct 201 cannot enter the first branch air duct 202.

[0079] In this embodiment, the main air channel 201 and the first branch air channel 202 are connected or disconnected via the first solenoid valve 701 , that is, the first solenoid valve 701 can control the connection and disconnection of the main air channel 201 and the first branch air channel 202 .

[0080] The nozzle cavity is disposed within the second portion 102 and serves to connect the gas passageway and the corresponding nozzle, allowing the gas within the gas passageway to be ejected from the nozzle. Specifically, the nozzle cavity includes a first nozzle cavity 301, which communicates with the first branch gas passageway 202. The first nozzle cavity 301 is disposed along the length of the second portion 102 and is positioned adjacent to the main gas passageway 201.

[0081] The nozzle assembly is provided on the body 1 and includes a first nozzle 501. The first nozzle 501 intersects and communicates with the side wall of the main airway 201 to form an interface 9. In this embodiment, the first nozzle 501 is provided on the side wall of the main airway 201 and is in communication with the main airway 201. Specifically, the first nozzle 501 is in communication with the main airway 201 through the interface 9. The first nozzle 501 is a normally open nozzle suitable for the first fire gear (low fire working state) of the gas water heater to meet the user's need for low fire. The location of the first nozzle 501 needs to not affect the settings of other airways.

[0082] The diameter of the interface 9 depends on the size of the intersection area between the first nozzle 501 and the side wall of the main gas channel 201. It can be understood that the larger the diameter of the interface 9, the larger the flow area of ​​the interface 9, and the lower the pressure of the gas entering the first nozzle 501 from the main gas channel 201. That is, the flow area of ​​the interface 9 is inversely proportional to the pressure of the gas entering the first nozzle 501.

[0083] In order to increase the diameter of the interface 9, this can be achieved by increasing the inner diameter of the main air channel 201, that is, the setting position of the first nozzle 501 remains unchanged, and by expanding the inner diameter of the main air channel 201, the intersection area between the first nozzle 501 and the side wall of the main air channel 201 is increased, thereby increasing the diameter and flow area of ​​the interface 9.

[0084] However, increasing the inner diameter of the main air channel 201 to increase the diameter of the interface 9 can easily cause the side wall between the main air channel 201 and the first nozzle chamber 301 to become thinner, or even cause the main air channel 201 to directly penetrate the side wall and communicate with the first nozzle chamber 301. To this end, the gas separation device of this embodiment is provided with a reinforced wall structure.

[0085] The reinforcing wall structure serves as a shared sidewall for the main airway 201 and the first nozzle chamber 301. Specifically, the side of the reinforcing wall structure facing the main airway 201 constitutes a portion of the inner wall of the main airway 201, while the side of the reinforcing wall structure facing the first nozzle chamber 301 constitutes a portion of the inner wall of the first nozzle chamber 301. The reinforcing wall structure separates the main airway 201 and the first nozzle chamber 301 into two independent structures that are not interconnected. Furthermore, the reinforcing wall structure protrudes toward the inner side of at least one of the main airway 201 and the first nozzle chamber 301 to increase the thickness of the shared sidewall, thereby enhancing the structural strength of the shared sidewall. When the inner diameter of the main air duct 201 is increased in order to increase the diameter of the interface 9, the common side wall of the main air duct 201 and the first nozzle chamber 301 has sufficient thickness to meet the diameter expansion requirement of the main air duct 201, so that the common side wall between the main air duct 201 and the first nozzle chamber 301 will not be damaged, ensuring the independence of the two and greatly reducing the risk of cross-flow.

[0086] Furthermore, the reinforcing wall structure protrudes toward the inner side of the main air passage 201 , and the cross-sectional area of ​​the portion of the main air passage 201 where the reinforcing wall structure is provided becomes smaller along the gas flow direction.

[0087] In some embodiments, the reinforcing wall structure may protrude toward the inner side of the main air duct 201 and toward the inner side of the first nozzle chamber 301. In some embodiments, the reinforcing wall structure may protrude only toward the inner side of the first nozzle chamber 301. In the present embodiment, the reinforcing wall structure protrudes only toward the inner side of the main air duct 201, so that the cross-sectional area of ​​the portion of the main air duct 201 where the reinforcing wall structure is provided is smaller than the cross-sectional area of ​​other portions of the main air duct 201.

[0088] Moreover, the cross-sectional area of ​​the portion of the main air duct 201 provided with the reinforced wall structure becomes smaller along the gas flow direction. The gas flow direction in the main air duct 201 is as follows: Figure 3 As shown by the arrow in the main airway 201. Figure 3From the perspective shown, the reinforcing wall structure is arranged at the lower position of the main air duct 201, and the gas flows downward. The cross-sectional area of ​​the portion of the main air duct 201 provided with the reinforcing wall structure is the cross-sectional area of ​​the reinforcing wall structure perpendicular to the axial direction of the main air duct 201, and the cross-sectional area of ​​the portion of the main air duct 201 provided with the reinforcing wall structure becomes smaller and smaller in the downward direction.

[0089] Optionally, the cross-sectional area of ​​the portion of the main air duct 201 provided with the reinforcing wall structure gradually and evenly decreases in the downward direction to make the airflow more uniform.

[0090] Furthermore, the reinforced wall structure includes a reinforced surface 10 . The reinforced surface 10 is a plane and is arranged at an angle to the axial direction of the main air channel 201 .

[0091] The reinforcing wall structure includes a reinforcing surface 10, which is positioned within the main airway 201 and / or within the first nozzle chamber 301. In this embodiment, the reinforcing surface 10 is positioned within the main airway 201 and constitutes a portion of the inner wall of the main airway 201. The reinforcing surface 10 is arranged at an angle to the axis of the main airway 201, that is, the reinforcing surface 10 is an inclined plane disposed obliquely within the main airway 201. This reinforcing wall structure is easier to manufacture and form, reducing the difficulty and cost of manufacturing the gas separator.

[0092] like Figure 2-Figure 3 As shown, the distance between the upper end of the reinforced surface 10 and the axis of the main gas channel 201 is greater than the distance between the lower end of the reinforced surface 10 and the axis of the main gas channel 201. In this embodiment, the lower end of the reinforced surface 10 is located at the axis of the main gas channel 201. This configuration of the reinforced surface 10 does not affect the flow of gas within the main gas channel 201, ensuring smooth gas distribution in the gas distribution device.

[0093] Furthermore, the reinforcement surface 10 is arranged opposite to the interface 9 .

[0094] The reinforced surface 10 is arranged relative to the interface 9, so that after the gas flow reaches the reinforced surface 10, the reinforced surface 10 can guide the gas and make the gas flow in the direction of entering the interface 9, so that more gas can enter the interface 9 faster, which is beneficial to improving the gas distribution efficiency and improving the secondary pressure detection efficiency.

[0095] Specifically, the reinforcement surface 10 and the interface 9 are not arranged to face each other directly. Since the reinforcement surface 10 is an inclined plane, the reinforcement surface 10 and the interface 9 are arranged to face each other obliquely.

[0096] In other embodiments, the reinforced wall structure includes a reinforced surface 10, which may be a curved or stepped surface. This is sufficient as long as the reinforced surface 10 protrudes from the inner wall of the main air duct 201 and / or the inner wall of the first nozzle chamber 301. Whether the reinforced surface 10 is a curved or stepped surface can effectively increase the thickness and strength of the shared sidewall of the main air duct 201 and the first nozzle chamber 301, ensuring that the main air duct 201 and the first nozzle chamber 301 are independent of each other and do not communicate, thereby reducing the risk of cross-flow. Therefore, the caliber of the interface can be appropriately increased to meet the requirements of secondary pressure testing and improve detection accuracy without increasing the load on the water heater and ensuring that flue gas emissions meet standard requirements.

[0097] Furthermore, the diameter of the interface 9 is equal to the diameter of the first nozzle 501 .

[0098] When the diameter of the interface 9 is equal to the diameter of the first nozzle 501, the diameter of the interface 9 is the maximum diameter, which can fully meet the secondary pressure detection requirements without increasing the water heater load and ensuring that the water heater smoke emissions meet the standards.

[0099] Furthermore, the gas separation device of this embodiment further includes a secondary pressure detection port 11 . The secondary pressure detection port 11 is provided on the body 1 and is communicated with the first nozzle 501 .

[0100] The secondary pressure detection port 11 is used for secondary pressure testing and is disposed on the main body 1. Specifically, the main body 1 is provided with a secondary pressure detection chamber 12. The air inlet of the secondary pressure detection chamber 12 is connected to the first nozzle 501, and the air outlet of the secondary pressure detection chamber 12 is the secondary pressure detection port 11. During secondary pressure testing, the gas in the main gas channel 201 can enter the secondary pressure detection chamber 12 through the interface 9 and the first nozzle 501 in sequence, and then be discharged from the secondary pressure detection port 11 for secondary pressure testing.

[0101] Furthermore, the air channel also includes a second branch air channel 203, and the first branch air channel 202 and the second branch air channel 203 can be connected or disconnected. The nozzle chamber also includes a second nozzle chamber 302, which is adjacent to the first nozzle chamber 301 and is connected to the second branch air channel 203.

[0102] The gas separation device of this embodiment also includes: at least two assembly structures and a sealing member 4, and at least two assembly structures are arranged at intervals on the inner wall of the intersection of the first nozzle chamber 301 and the second nozzle chamber 302; the sealing member 4 can be selectively installed in conjunction with one of the assembly structures to adjust the number of nozzles that can be set on the side walls of the first nozzle chamber 301 and the second nozzle chamber 302.

[0103] At least two assembly structures are spaced apart on the inner wall at the intersection of the first nozzle chamber 301 and the second nozzle chamber 302. The first nozzle chamber 301 and the second nozzle chamber 302 are adjacent to each other, with an assembly structure disposed at this intersection. The blocking member 4 can be selectively installed with one of the assembly structures. When installed with a particular assembly structure, the blocking member 4 serves as a shared wall between the first and second nozzle chambers 301, 302, ensuring that the first and second nozzle chambers 301, 302 are independent of each other and do not interfere with each other. In this embodiment, the blocking member 4 is specifically a plugging cap.

[0104] This gas separation device is also provided with at least two assembly structures inside the main body 1, and at least two assembly results are arranged at intervals on the inner wall of the intersection of the first nozzle cavity 301 and the second nozzle cavity 302. The sealing member 4 can be selectively installed in conjunction with one of the assembly structures. The sealing member 4 cooperates with different assembly structures to adjust the number of nozzles that can be set on the side walls of the first nozzle cavity 301 and the second nozzle cavity 302. Different numbers of nozzles can match gas water heaters of different powers, so that this gas separation device can be suitable for gas water heaters of different powers, with high manufacturing flexibility and a wide range of applications. There is no need to separately open a mold or cast the gas separation device that matches the gas water heater of each load, so that one mold can produce gas separation devices with different needs, which greatly simplifies the manufacturing process and manufacturing costs.

[0105] The second gas channel 203 is arranged in the second part 102, and the second gas channel 203 is arranged along a length direction perpendicular to the second part 102. The first gas channel 202 is arranged closer to the main gas channel 201 than the second gas channel 203. The first gas channel 202 and the second gas channel 203 can be connected or disconnected. When the first gas channel 202 and the second gas channel 203 are connected, the gas in the first gas channel 202 can enter the second gas channel 203, and when the first gas channel 202 and the second gas channel 203 are disconnected, the gas in the first gas channel 202 cannot enter the second gas channel 203. Specifically, the first gas channel 202 and the second gas channel 203 are connected or disconnected through the second solenoid valve 702, that is, the second solenoid valve 702 can control the connection and disconnection of the first gas channel 202 and the second gas channel 203.

[0106] The second nozzle cavity 302 is communicated with the second branch air channel 203 . The second nozzle cavity 302 is arranged along the length direction of the second portion 102 , and the first nozzle cavity 301 is arranged closer to the main air channel 201 than the second nozzle cavity 302 .

[0107] At least two assembly structures are arranged at intervals, specifically, at least two assembly structures are arranged at intervals along the length direction of the second part 102, so that when the sealing member 4 is matched with different assembly structures, the number of nozzles that can be set on the side walls of the first nozzle cavity and the second nozzle cavity can be adjusted, and different numbers of nozzles can match gas water heaters of different powers, so that this gas distribution device can be suitable for gas water heaters of different powers, with high manufacturing flexibility and a wide range of applications, and realizes that a mold can produce gas distribution devices with different needs, which greatly simplifies the manufacturing process and manufacturing costs.

[0108] Furthermore, the blocking member 4 can be selectively installed in conjunction with one of the assembly structures, and the number of nozzles that can be set on the side walls of the first nozzle cavity 301 and the second nozzle cavity 302 can be adjusted by adjusting the side wall areas of the first nozzle cavity 301 and the second nozzle cavity 302.

[0109] At least two assembly structures are arranged at intervals along the length direction of the second part 102. When the sealing member 4 is installed in conjunction with different assembly structures, the internal volume of the first nozzle cavity 301 and the second nozzle cavity 302 will change accordingly, while the inner diameter size of the first nozzle cavity 301 and the second nozzle cavity 302 remains unchanged. Therefore, the sealing member 4 is installed in conjunction with different assembly structures to change the side wall area of ​​the first nozzle cavity 301 and the second nozzle cavity 302. The side walls of the first nozzle cavity 301 and the second nozzle cavity 302 will form nozzles. The side wall area of ​​the first nozzle cavity 301 and the second nozzle cavity 302 changes, and the number of nozzles that can be set on the side walls of the corresponding first nozzle cavity 301 and the second nozzle cavity 302 will also change. Different numbers of nozzles can match gas water heaters of different powers, thereby realizing a mold that can manufacture gas distribution devices with different needs. This gas distribution device has a simple structure, is easy to manufacture, and does not increase manufacturing costs.

[0110] Furthermore, the assembly structure is provided between the communication position between the first nozzle cavity 301 and the first branch air channel 202 , and between the communication position between the second nozzle cavity 302 and the second branch air channel 203 .

[0111] Since the first nozzle chamber 301 is connected to the first gas channel 202, and the second nozzle chamber 302 is connected to the second gas channel 203, there is a connecting position between the first nozzle chamber 301 and the first gas channel 202, which is called the first connecting position. Similarly, there is also a connecting position between the second nozzle chamber 302 and the second gas channel 203, which is called the second connecting position. The assembly structure is arranged between the first connecting position and the second connecting position so that the assembly structure will not affect the first connecting position and the second connecting position, thereby avoiding the assembly structure affecting the connection between the first nozzle chamber 301 and the first gas channel 202, or affecting the connection between the second nozzle chamber 302 and the second gas channel 203, so as to ensure the smoothness of the gas passage.

[0112] Furthermore, the assembly structure includes a step protruding from the inner wall of the intersection of the first nozzle cavity 301 and the second nozzle cavity 302 .

[0113] In this embodiment, the assembly structure is a step structure, that is, the assembly structure includes a step, which protrudes from the inner wall at the intersection of the first nozzle chamber 301 and the second nozzle chamber 302. This assembly structure is easy to process and form, has a simple structure and strong reliability, and can reduce the manufacturing cost of the gas separation device.

[0114] Furthermore, the inner diameters of the steps are different.

[0115] There are at least two assembly structures, that is, there are at least two steps, and the inner diameters of the steps are different, so as to realize the coordinated installation of different steps and the blocking member 4, thereby conveniently realizing the adjustment of the number of nozzles that can be set on the side walls of the first nozzle chamber 301 and the second nozzle chamber 302, which is conducive to reducing the difficulty of operation.

[0116] Furthermore, the inner diameter of the step closer to the second nozzle chamber 302 is larger.

[0117] like Figure 1-Figure 3 As shown, taking the angle shown in the figure as an example, the left end of the second part 102 of the gas distribution device is the operating port, and the second nozzle chamber 302 is arranged closer to the operating port than the first nozzle chamber 301. In order to enable the sealing member 4 to be installed in coordination with each step, the inner diameter of the step closer to the second nozzle chamber 302 is larger to facilitate the installation operation.

[0118] Optionally, the assembly structure includes a first step 801 and a second step 802, and the first step 801 is closer to the second nozzle chamber 302 than the second step 802. Figure 4 As shown, the inner diameter of the first step 801 is φC, and the inner diameter of the second step 802 is φD, where φC>φD, i.e., the inner diameter of the first step 801 is larger than the inner diameter of the second step 802, and the distance between the first step 801 and the second step 802 is L. The blocking member 4 can be installed in conjunction with the first step 801, and the blocking member 4 can also be installed in conjunction with the second step 802.

[0119] Furthermore, the side walls of the first nozzle cavity 301 and the second nozzle cavity 302 are each provided with at least two nozzles.

[0120] At least two nozzles are provided on the side walls of the first nozzle cavity 301 and the second nozzle cavity 302 to be suitable for gas water heaters of different powers.

[0121] In this embodiment, the sealing member 4 is installed in cooperation with the first step 801, and the side walls of the first nozzle chamber 301 and the second nozzle chamber 302 are each provided with two nozzles. Specifically, the side wall of the first nozzle chamber 301 is provided with a third nozzle 503 and a fourth nozzle 504, and the side wall of the second nozzle chamber 302 is provided with a fifth nozzle 505 and a sixth nozzle 506.

[0122] When the first solenoid valve 701 is open, the first branch gas channel 202 is connected to the main gas channel 201, and the gas enters the first branch gas channel 202 from the main gas channel 201, and then enters the first nozzle chamber 301, and the gas can be ejected from the third nozzle 503 and the fourth nozzle 504. When the first solenoid valve 701 and the second solenoid valve 702 are both open, the second branch gas channel 203 is connected to the first branch gas channel 202, and the gas enters the first branch gas channel 202 from the main gas channel 201 and then enters the second branch gas channel 203, and then enters the second nozzle chamber 302. The gas can be ejected not only from the third nozzle 503 and the fourth nozzle 504, but also from the fifth nozzle 505 and the sixth nozzle 506.

[0123] Furthermore, the blocking member 4 is installed with an interference fit with the assembly structure.

[0124] To enhance the secure fit, the plugging member 4 is installed with an interference fit on the assembly structure. Once installed, the plugging member 4, serving as the shared wall between the first nozzle cavity 301 and the second nozzle cavity 301, must withstand the pressure differential between the two nozzle cavities. The interference fit between the plugging member 4 and the assembly structure ensures a secure fit and prevents it from falling off, thereby improving structural reliability and ensuring the service life of the gas distributor.

[0125] Furthermore, the air channel also includes a third branch air channel 204, which can be connected or disconnected with the main air channel 201, and the nozzle chamber also includes a third nozzle chamber 303, which is connected with the third branch air channel 204, and a second nozzle 502 is provided on the side wall of the third nozzle chamber 303.

[0126] In the gas distribution device of this embodiment, the gas channel further includes a third gas channel 204, which can be connected or disconnected with the main gas channel 201. The third gas channel 204 is arranged in the second part 102. Figure 1-Figure 3 As shown, the third sub-airway 204 is arranged on both sides of the main airway 201 opposite to the first sub-airway 202 and the second sub-airway 203. Optionally, the first sub-airway 202, the second sub-airway 203 and the third sub-airway 204 are coaxially arranged.

[0127] In this embodiment, the third branch air channel 204 and the main air channel 201 are connected or disconnected via the third solenoid valve 703 , that is, the third solenoid valve 703 can control the connection and disconnection between the third branch air channel 204 and the main air channel 201 .

[0128] The nozzle chamber also includes a third nozzle chamber 303, which is connected to the third air distribution channel 204. The side wall of the third nozzle chamber 303 is provided with a second nozzle 502. The first nozzle 501 is a normally open nozzle. When the first nozzle 501 and the second nozzle 502 spray, it is the second fire power gear of the gas water heater (medium or small fire working state), which can meet different usage requirements.

[0129] To make the gas distributor more uniform and facilitate subsequent integration with the burner, the axes of the first nozzle 501, second nozzle 502, third nozzle 503, fourth nozzle 504, fifth nozzle 505, and sixth nozzle 506 are parallel and coplanar. This six-nozzle gas distributor is suitable for a 30kW, 16-liter water heater.

[0130] It should be noted that, according to the different gas water heaters that the gas distribution device matches, after the blocking member 4 is assembled, each nozzle can be formed through subsequent processing.

[0131] The gas distribution device of this embodiment can be applied to water heaters with different loads, which can reduce the subsequent processing steps, improve the versatility of the product, narrow the load fluctuation range, and enhance the user experience; at the same time, it increases the overlapping area of ​​adjacent working gears, making the firepower switching smoother and reducing safety hazards such as accidental flameout.

[0132] This embodiment also provides a mold for manufacturing the above-mentioned air separation device. The mold includes a mold body and a first core-pulling part. The first core-pulling part is connected to the mold body and has a first molding structure that matches the reinforced wall structure of the air separation device.

[0133] This mold can produce the gas separation device of this embodiment. The first core-pulling part of the mold has a first molding structure that matches the reinforced wall structure of the gas separation device to increase the thickness and strength of the common side wall of the main air duct 201 and the first nozzle cavity 301 of the gas separation device, ensuring that the main air duct 201 and the first nozzle cavity 301 are independent of each other and will not be connected, thereby reducing the risk of cross-gas. At this time, the caliber size of the interface 9 can be appropriately increased to meet the secondary pressure detection requirements and improve the detection accuracy without increasing the load of the water heater, and ensuring that the flue gas emissions meet the standard requirements.

[0134] Furthermore, the mold of this embodiment further includes a second core-pulling portion 6 , which is connected to the mold body. The outer wall of the second core-pulling portion 6 is formed with a second molding structure that matches the assembly structure of the gas separator.

[0135] like Figure 12As shown, the outer wall of the second core-pulling portion 6 is provided with a second molding structure. There are at least two types of second molding structures, and the second molding structures match the assembly structure of the gas distributor. In this embodiment, two second molding structures are provided. Specifically, the second molding structures are protruding structures protruding from the outer wall of the second core-pulling portion 6. The larger second molding structure has an outer diameter of φC, and the smaller second molding structure has an outer diameter of φD, where φC>φD. The larger second molding structure can form the first step 801, and the smaller second molding structure can form the second step 802.

[0136] This mold can die-cast at least two assembly structures at one time, thereby producing the gas distribution device of this embodiment, so that this gas distribution device can be suitable for gas water heaters of different powers, with high manufacturing flexibility and a wide range of applications. There is no need to separately open a mold and cast the gas distribution device that matches the gas water heater of each load, so that one mold can produce gas distribution devices with different needs, which greatly simplifies the manufacturing process and manufacturing costs.

[0137] This embodiment also provides a water heater, including the gas distribution device of this embodiment. The thickness of the common side wall of the main air duct 201 and the first nozzle chamber 301 is thicker and stronger, which can ensure that the main air duct 201 and the first nozzle chamber 301 are independent of each other and will not be connected, thereby reducing the risk of cross-gas. At this time, the caliber size of the interface 9 can be appropriately increased to meet the secondary pressure detection requirements, thereby achieving the purpose of not increasing the load of the water heater and ensuring that the flue gas emissions meet the standard requirements.

[0138] Moreover, the gas distribution device structure that matches the water heater with different power (different load) is different, and the gas distribution device of this embodiment can be applied to water heaters with different powers, has high manufacturing flexibility and a wide range of applications, and there is no need to separately open molds and cast the gas distribution device that matches the gas water heater with each load, so that one mold can produce gas distribution devices with different needs.

[0139] Specifically, the water heater is a gas water heater, and the gas water heater includes other devices and structures that existing gas water heaters have, such as a burner, etc. The gas distribution device distributes gas to the burner, and the two cooperate with each other to achieve the hot water preparation process.

[0140] This embodiment also provides a control method, which is used to control the gas distribution device of this embodiment or to control the water heater of this embodiment. The control method includes:

[0141] When the first fire gear is in operation, the first nozzle 501 of the main air channel 201 supplies air;

[0142] When the second fire gear is in operation, the first nozzle 501 and the second nozzle 502 of the third air channel 204 supply air;

[0143] When the third fire gear is in operation, the first nozzle 501, the second nozzle 502 and the two nozzles of the first nozzle chamber 301 supply air;

[0144] When the fourth fire power gear is in operation, the first nozzle 501 , the second nozzle 502 , at least two nozzles of the first nozzle chamber 301 and at least two nozzles of the second nozzle chamber 302 supply air.

[0145] This control method corresponds to different firepower levels selected by the user. Specifically, the first firepower level corresponds to a low-fire working state, the second firepower level corresponds to a medium-low-fire working state, the third firepower level corresponds to a medium-high-fire working state, and the fourth firepower level corresponds to a high-fire working state. The user can select the desired level by operating the corresponding control structure on the water heater.

[0146] like Figure 3 As shown in the figure, the arrow direction is the gas flow direction. The initial state of each solenoid valve is closed.

[0147] When the user selects the first fire gear, only the first nozzle 501 of the main air channel 201 supplies gas to the burner. The first nozzle 501 is a normally open nozzle, and the burner is in a low-fire working state.

[0148] When the user selects the second fire gear, the third solenoid valve 703 opens, the third branch gas channel 204 is connected to the main gas channel 201, the gas enters the third branch gas channel 204 from the main gas channel 201, and then enters the third nozzle chamber 303, and the gas can be sprayed out from the second nozzle 502. The first nozzle 501 is a normally open nozzle. The first nozzle 501 and the second nozzle 502 supply gas to the burner at the same time, that is, the two nozzles supply gas to the burner. At this time, it is in the medium and small fire working state.

[0149] When the user selects the third fire gear, the first solenoid valve 701 opens, the first branch air channel 202 is connected to the main air channel 201, the gas enters the first branch air channel 202 from the main air channel 201, and then enters the first nozzle chamber 301, and the gas can be ejected from the third nozzle 503 and the fourth nozzle 504. The third solenoid valve 703 is also in the open state, and the first nozzle 501 is a normally open nozzle. The first nozzle 501, the second nozzle 502, the third nozzle 503 and the fourth nozzle 504 supply gas to the burner at the same time, that is, four nozzles supply gas to the burner, and this is the medium and high fire working state.

[0150] When the user selects the fourth fire power gear, the first solenoid valve 701 and the second solenoid valve 702 are both opened, the second branch air channel 203 is connected to the first branch air channel 202, and the gas enters the first branch air channel 202 from the main air channel 201 and then enters the second branch air channel 203, and then enters the second nozzle chamber 302. The gas can not only be ejected from the third nozzle 503 and the fourth nozzle 504, but also from the fifth nozzle 505 and the sixth nozzle 506. The third solenoid valve 703 is also in the open state, and the first nozzle 501 is a normally open nozzle. The first nozzle 501, the second nozzle 502, the third nozzle 503, the fourth nozzle 504, the fifth nozzle 505 and the sixth nozzle 506 supply gas to the burner at the same time, that is, six nozzles supply gas to the burner, and it is now in a high fire working state.

[0151] like Figure 5-Figure 11 FIG. 1 shows another embodiment of the gas distribution device of this embodiment. The difference between this embodiment and the previous embodiment is that three nozzles are provided on the side wall of the second nozzle chamber 302. In addition, in order to provide two nozzles in the first nozzle chamber 301 and three nozzles in the second nozzle chamber 302, and to ensure a larger diameter interface 9, the thickness b of the shared side wall between the first nozzle chamber 301 and the main gas channel 201 will be reduced. Figure 9 As shown, since the gas separation device of this embodiment is provided with a reinforced wall structure, it can ensure that the main air duct 201 and the first nozzle chamber 301 are independent of each other and there will be no cross-gas, while meeting the needs of secondary pressure detection, so that the load of the water heater will not exceed the standard and the smoke emission also meets the requirements.

[0152] In this embodiment, by cooperating and installing the blocking member 4 with the second step 802 , two nozzles are provided on the side wall of the first nozzle cavity 301 , and three nozzles are provided on the side wall of the second nozzle cavity 302 .

[0153] like Figure 10 As shown, in the previous embodiment, the blocking member 4 is installed in conjunction with the first step 801. In this embodiment, the blocking member 4 is installed in conjunction with the second step 802. As a result, the internal volume of the first nozzle chamber 301 decreases, while the internal volume of the second nozzle chamber 302 increases, while the radial dimensions of the first and second nozzle chambers 301, 302 remain unchanged. Consequently, the sidewall area of ​​the first nozzle chamber 301 decreases, while the sidewall area of ​​the second nozzle chamber 302 increases. The sidewalls of the first nozzle chamber 301 are provided with two nozzles, namely the third nozzle 503 and the fourth nozzle 504, while the sidewalls of the second nozzle chamber 302 are provided with three nozzles, namely the fifth nozzle 505, the sixth nozzle 506, and the seventh nozzle 507. This seven-nozzle gas distributor is suitable for 34kW, 18-liter water heaters.

[0154] like Figure 8 and Figure 11As shown, the arrow indicates the direction of gas flow. During secondary pressure testing, the inner diameter of the main gas channel 201 is expanded, thereby changing the diameter of the interface 9. This reduces the pressure entering the secondary pressure detection chamber 12, increases the inner diameter of the passageway entering the secondary pressure detection port 11, and increases the amount of gas entering the secondary pressure detection port 11. The secondary pressure can reflect the actual pressure of the main gas channel 201, thereby ensuring thermal load. The reinforced wall structure ensures that the shared side wall of the main gas channel 201 and the first nozzle chamber 301 will not be damaged or opened, maintaining the two independent of each other.

[0155] When controlling the gas separation device of this embodiment, the control method includes:

[0156] When the user selects the first fire gear, only the first nozzle 501 of the main air channel 201 supplies gas to the burner. The first nozzle 501 is a normally open nozzle, and the burner is in a low-fire working state.

[0157] When the user selects the second fire gear, the third solenoid valve 703 opens, the third branch gas channel 204 is connected to the main gas channel 201, the gas enters the third branch gas channel 204 from the main gas channel 201, and then enters the third nozzle chamber 303, and the gas can be sprayed out from the second nozzle 502. The first nozzle 501 is a normally open nozzle. The first nozzle 501 and the second nozzle 502 supply gas to the burner at the same time, that is, the two nozzles supply gas to the burner. At this time, it is in the medium and small fire working state.

[0158] When the user selects the third fire gear, the first solenoid valve 701 opens, the first branch air channel 202 is connected to the main air channel 201, the gas enters the first branch air channel 202 from the main air channel 201, and then enters the first nozzle chamber 301, and the gas can be ejected from the third nozzle 503 and the fourth nozzle 504. The third solenoid valve 703 is also in the open state, and the first nozzle 501 is a normally open nozzle. The first nozzle 501, the second nozzle 502, the third nozzle 503 and the fourth nozzle 504 supply gas to the burner at the same time, that is, four nozzles supply gas to the burner, and this is the medium and high fire working state.

[0159] When the user selects the fourth fire power gear, the first solenoid valve 701 and the second solenoid valve 702 are both opened, the second branch gas channel 203 is connected to the first branch gas channel 202, and the gas enters the first branch gas channel 202 from the main gas channel 201 and then enters the second branch gas channel 203, and then enters the second nozzle chamber 302. The gas can not only be ejected from the third nozzle 503 and the fourth nozzle 504, but also from the fifth nozzle 505, the sixth nozzle 506 and the seventh nozzle 507. The third solenoid valve 703 is also in the open state, and the first nozzle 501 is a normally open nozzle. The first nozzle 501, the second nozzle 502, the third nozzle 503, the fourth nozzle 504, the fifth nozzle 505, the sixth nozzle 506 and the seventh nozzle 507 supply gas to the burner at the same time, that is, seven nozzles supply gas to the burner, and it is now in a high fire working state.

[0160] In other embodiments, the gas distributor can be provided with three, four, or five assembly structures, depending on the size of the gas distributor body 1 and different gas distribution requirements. Similarly, the sidewalls of the first nozzle chamber 301 and the second nozzle chamber 302 can be provided with four, five, or six nozzles, etc. The number of nozzles on the sidewalls of the first nozzle chamber 301 and the second nozzle chamber 302 can be the same or different.
