Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of faucets, and in particular relates to a quick-detachable sterilizing water purification faucet. Background Art

[0002] A sterilization faucet means that a sterilization module is integrated into the structure of the faucet. The sterilization modules in all the sterilization faucets currently on the market are non-replaceable. After the service life of the sterilization module expires (the service life of a conventional sterilization module is 1000 hours), the sterilization module must be replaced or repaired. On the other hand, the timeliness of the sterilization module makes it difficult to confirm the replacement timing. It often happens that users use the sterilization module for a long time until the sterilization module expires and cannot be replaced in time, or do not know how to replace it. Therefore, the technical problem that needs to be solved is how to facilitate the later maintenance of the sterilization module. Utility Model Content

[0028] Reference Figure 1-4 As shown, this embodiment provides a quick-detachable sterilizing water purification faucet, including a main body 3, an upper body 2, a water outlet elbow 1, a sterilization component and a switch valve 5. The water outlet pipe of the switch valve 5 is connected to the water inlet pipe. The main body 3 is adapted to be provided with an inner body 6 inside, and the inner body 6 is connected to the switch valve 5. The top of the main body 3 is connected to the upper body 2 through an internal thread or a straight plug-in connection. The water outlet elbow 1 is sealed and connected to the top of the upper body 2. The sterilization component is located inside the upper body 2, and quick-plug connectors are provided at both ends of the sterilization component. The sterilization component is sealed and connected to the inner body 6 and the upper body 2 respectively through quick-plug connectors.

[0029] Furthermore, the quick-plug connector can be a straight-plug pipe connector, a quick-connect pipe connector or a quick-plug pipe connector. When the two ends of the sterilization component are quick-plug pipe connectors 14, the end of the upper body 2 away from the main body 3 is provided with a first inner groove surface 15, and the end of the inner body 6 close to the upper body 2 is provided with a second inner groove surface. The quick-plug pipe connectors 14 at both ends are respectively plugged and sealed with the first inner groove surface 15 and the second inner groove surface, and the end of the water outlet elbow 1 close to the upper body 2 is provided with an inner concave structure 16, and the inner concave structure 16 is plugged and sealed with the first inner groove surface 15.

[0030] By arranging quick-insert pipe joints 14 at both ends of the sterilization component and cooperating with the first inner groove surface 15 and the second inner groove surface, convenient disassembly and assembly of the sterilization component is achieved. Secondly, the upper body 2 and the main body 3 are connected by an internal thread, which also enables the sterilization component to be inspected and replaced later by only removing the water outlet elbow 1 and the upper body 2.

[0031] Furthermore, one end of the sterilization component is communicated with the water outlet pipe of the switch valve 5 , and one end of the sterilization component away from the switch valve 5 is communicated with the water outlet elbow 1 .

[0032] Furthermore, the sterilization component includes a module body 7, a UVC lamp board 11 is provided at the bottom of the module body 7, a light guide 8 is provided inside the module body 7, a quartz tube 9 is provided inside the light guide 8, several groups of UVC lamps are arranged at intervals on the UVC lamp board 11, a first lamp trough 12 adapted to the UVC lamp board 11 is provided through the bottom of the module body 7, a second lamp trough 13 adapted to the first lamp trough 12 is provided through the bottom of the light guide 8, and the height of the UVC lamp is higher than the height of the first lamp trough 12 and lower than the sum of the heights of the first lamp trough 12 and the second lamp trough 13.

[0033] By setting up the UVC lamp board 11 and cooperating with the light guide 8, the light irradiation of the UVC lamp board 11 is made more uniform, and the height of the UVC lamp is set to be higher than the height of the first lamp trough 12 and lower than the sum of the heights of the first lamp trough 12 and the second lamp trough 13. This setting can firstly avoid the module body 7 from blocking the light emitted by the UVC lamp, and secondly, it can also divide the light emitted by the UVC lamp into a directly irradiated part and a part refracted by the light guide 8. This setting can increase the range of light coverage emitted by the UVC lamp and make the light irradiation more uniform.

[0034] Furthermore, the side of the light guide 8 away from the UVC lamp board 11 is in contact with the side of the quartz tube 9 away from the UVC lamp board 11, and a gap chamber 10 is present between the side of the light guide 8 close to the UVC lamp board 11 and the side of the quartz tube 9 close to the UVC lamp board 11.

[0035] By setting a gap chamber 10 on the side of the light guide 8 close to the UVC lamp board 11 and the side of the quartz tube 9 close to the UVC lamp board 11, this setting is beneficial to the heat dissipation of the UVC lamp board 11, and can also prevent condensation on the surface of the quartz tube 9, thereby affecting the light projection of the UVC lamp board 11, and thus affecting the sterilization effect of the water purification faucet.

[0036] Furthermore, a control circuit board is further provided in the UVC lamp board 11. The control circuit board is electrically connected to the UVC lamp and is used to control the switch of the UVC lamp.

[0037] Furthermore, a flow detector is also provided in the water purification faucet, and the flow detector is signal-connected to the control circuit board.

[0038] Furthermore, a light ring 4 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the main body 3, and a light circuit module is provided in the light ring 4. The light circuit module is electrically connected to the control circuit board, and the control circuit board controls the light of the light circuit module according to the signal of the flow detector.

[0039] Furthermore, when the flow detector detects that water is flowing inside the water purification faucet, the light of the light-emitting circuit module is on and the sterilization component is working; when the flow detector does not detect that water is flowing inside the water purification faucet, the light of the light-emitting circuit module is off and the sterilization component stops working.

[0040] By setting up a flow detector inside the water purification faucet, when the flow detector detects that water is flowing inside the water purification faucet, a signal is sent, and then the control circuit board and the light-emitting circuit module are used to achieve linkage. In the water-out state, work feedback is provided by lighting up the light, and the user is reminded that the sterilization module is in use.

[0041] In this embodiment, the flow detector can also be installed in the water purifier, that is, when the flow detector detects that water is flowing inside the water purifier, it sends a signal to the light-emitting circuit module and the sterilization component, thereby making the light of the light-emitting circuit module light up and the sterilization component start working.

[0042] 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.
