Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of water tanks and relates to an integrated water tank. Background Art

[0002] A water purifier, also known as a water purifier, is a water treatment device that deeply filters and purifies water according to the requirements for its use. With the rise of environmental pollution and rising demands for quality of life, more and more ordinary households are beginning to use water purifiers. Household water purifiers are typically small and are usually installed with a sink. For example, patent application number 202022099421.8 describes an integrated kitchen appliance that includes a sink, a water purifier, and a water outlet. The sink includes a body and a wall panel. The body has a tank cavity, which contains a receiving cavity. The wall panel is received in the tank cavity, and the receiving cavity is formed by the wall panel and the body. The water purifier is received in the receiving cavity. The water purifier includes a pure water pipeline and a raw water pipeline. The raw water pipeline is connected to the raw water end for introducing raw water into the water purifier. The water outlet device includes a first water outlet pipe and a second water outlet pipe. The first water outlet pipe is connected to the pure water pipeline for discharging the pure water produced by the water purifier, and the second water outlet pipe is connected to the raw water end for discharging the raw water. The water purifier is installed in the receiving cavity, and users can install it directly from the countertop, which is very convenient.

[0003] However, when the user washes food in the sink, water may leak directly from the opening of the receiving cavity into the water purifier, and the water purifier contains electrical appliances such as motors, which can easily affect the service life of the water purifier. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of the utility model is to solve the above problems existing in the prior art and to propose an integrated water tank. The technical problem to be solved is how to ensure the service life of the water purifier while facilitating its installation.

[0005] The purpose of this utility model can be achieved through the following technical solutions:

[0006] An integrated water sink includes a sink body and a water purifier. The water purifier has a square shell and a filter assembly arranged in the shell. The invention is characterized in that the bottom of the sink body is fixedly connected with a slide rail along the direction from the front side to the rear side of the sink body. The slide rail is provided with a slide groove along its length direction. The slide groove passes through the front end of the slide rail. A connecting piece is connected to the outside of the shell. The connecting piece is located in the slide groove and can move along the slide groove.

[0007] A slide rail is fixed to the bottom of the tank body along the front side of the tank body (the front side here refers to the side where the user stands to operate the tank when in use) to the back side, and a connector is connected to the outside of the shell. The connector slides into the slide groove of the slide rail so that the water purifier can be suspended and connected to the bottom of the tank body. Since the water purifier is connected to the bottom of the tank body, water on the countertop cannot leak into the water purifier, which effectively ensures the service life of the water purifier. In addition, through the use of the connector and the slide rail with a slide groove, the water purifier still retains the convenience of being easily disassembled for maintenance and pipe connection.

[0008] In addition, although the water purifier is located inside the cabinet after being connected to the bottom of the tank, it occupies the space above the cabinet, and the space above the cabinet is usually vacant, which is equivalent to the reasonable use of the internal space of the cabinet. Therefore, compared to directly placing the water purifier in the cabinet, the structure of this integrated sink will not occupy the space below the cabinet, and thus it can also save the space below the cabinet.

[0009] In the above-mentioned integrated water tank, there are two slide rails, which are arranged side by side. The slide groove is located on the side of the slide rail facing the other slide rail, and the left and right sides of the shell are connected with the above-mentioned connecting parts.

[0010] The above arrangement allows the water purifier's housing and tank to be connected in a drawer-like manner, making installation and removal much easier. The connectors on the left and right sides of the housing are located in two parallel slide rails, which effectively supports the weight of the entire water purifier.

[0011] In the above-mentioned integrated water sink, the connecting member is a roller.

[0012] Using rollers as connecting parts can form rolling friction between the shell and the slide rail, thereby saving users effort when disassembling or installing the water purifier.

[0013] In the above-mentioned integrated water tank, both chutes have a limit area formed by a downward depression, and the connecting parts on the left and right sides of the shell are respectively located in the limit area of ​​the corresponding chutes, and the connecting parts are positioned in the limit area along the front-back direction.

[0014] By providing a downwardly recessed stop along the length of the chute, the connector automatically moves into the stop as it moves along the chute. With the connector positioned within the stop along the front-to-back direction, the housing is securely positioned in this direction, preventing the water purifier from slipping under its own weight due to chute level deviations or building subsidence.

[0015] In the above-mentioned integrated water sink, the number of connecting parts on the left and right sides of the shell is two, and the two connecting parts on the same side are respectively located near the front and rear ends of the shell. The two connecting parts on the same side are both located in the limiting area of ​​the slide groove. The connecting part that is located more forward of the two connecting parts on the same side abuts against the front inner wall of the limiting area, and the connecting part that is located more backward of the two connecting parts on the same side abuts against the rear inner wall of the limiting area.

[0016] The connecting parts are rollers, with two on each side of the housing. The two connecting parts on the same side are located near the front and rear ends of the housing, respectively, which makes the movement of the housing smoother. After the housing is installed, the two connecting parts on the same side will be located within the limiting area of ​​the chute. The connecting part located closer to the front abuts against the front inner wall of the limiting area, while the connecting part located closer to the back abuts against the rear inner wall of the limiting area, thus ensuring the housing is firmly positioned in the front-to-back direction.

[0017] In the above-mentioned integrated water tank, the upper end of the front inner wall of the limiting area is inclined forward relative to the lower end.

[0018] By arranging the front inner wall of the limiting area so that the upper end is inclined forward relative to the lower end, the connecting piece can be easily moved out of the limiting area when the user applies a pulling force on the water purifier.

[0019] In the above-mentioned integrated water sink, the slide rail includes a track with a U-shaped cross-section, a slide bar slidingly arranged in the track, and a connecting bar fixed to one side of the slide bar. The slide groove is arranged on the connecting bar, the slide bars of the two slide rails are arranged opposite to each other and the two connecting bars are located on the opposite side of the two slide bars. A blocking member is fixedly connected to the track near the front end position, and a supporting member is fixedly connected to the side of the slide bar facing away from the connecting bar near the rear end position. The slide bar can slide forward relative to the track until the front end of the supporting member abuts against the rear end of the blocking member.

[0020] By configuring the slide rail to include a track, a slider, and a connecting bar, the slider can slide relative to the track, the connecting bar is fixed to the slider, and the slide groove is provided on the connecting bar. This configuration can increase the drawer's extraction stroke, specifically the sliding stroke of the slider relative to the track plus the sliding stroke of the water purifier housing along the slide groove. The track and slider cooperate in a manner similar to a common drawer track structure.

[0021] In the above-mentioned integrated water sink, brackets are welded and fixedly connected at the bottom of the sink body near the front side and the bottom of the sink body near the rear side, and the front and rear ends of the slide rail are welded and fixedly connected to the two brackets.

[0022] In the above-mentioned integrated water sink, the filter assembly includes a water purification filter element arranged along the front and back, the front end of the shell has an installation port, the water purification filter element is installed into the shell from the installation port, the front end of the shell is detachably connected to a decorative cover, and the front side of the decorative cover is fixedly connected to a handle.

[0023] By providing a decorative cover with a handle, the user can easily pull out the entire water purifier by simply holding the handle and pulling it outwards.

[0024] In the above-mentioned integrated water tank, a magnet is fixed to the front end of the shell, the decorative cover is made of metal material, and the decorative cover and the shell are connected by the adsorption of the magnet.

[0025] The housing and the rails are connected by rolling friction, meaning the friction between them is relatively low. This ensures that the decorative cover is attached to the housing solely through magnetic attraction, preventing it from falling off the front of the housing when the user pulls the handle. Of course, if you simply need to remove the decorative cover from the housing without pulling out the water purifier, you can simply push against the housing and pull the decorative cover off.

[0026] Compared to existing technologies, this integrated sink features a slide rail fixed to the bottom of the sink along the front to rear direction, and a connector attached to the outside of the housing. The connector slides into the slide groove of the slide rail, allowing the water purifier to be suspended from the bottom of the sink. This prevents water from the countertop from leaking into the water purifier, effectively ensuring the lifespan of the water purifier. Furthermore, the combination of the connector and the slide rail with the slide groove allows the water purifier to be easily disassembled for maintenance and pipe connection.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0040] The following are specific embodiments of the present invention and the accompanying drawings to further describe the technical solution of the present invention, but the present invention is not limited to these embodiments.

[0041] Example 1

[0042] like Figure 1-Figure 7As shown, an integrated water tank includes a tank body 1 and a water purifier 2. The bottom of the tank body 1 has a drain outlet 1a. The water purifier 2 has a shell 2a and a filter assembly 2b arranged in the shell 2a. The shell 2a is square. The bottom of the tank body 1 is fixed with a slide rail 3 along the direction from the front to the back of the tank body 1. The slide rail 3 is provided with a slide groove 3a along its length. The slide groove 3a runs through the front end of the slide rail 3. The shell 2a is connected to the outside of the shell 2a with a connector 4, which is located in the slide groove 3a. There are two slide rails 3, and the two slide rails 3 are arranged side by side. The slide groove 3a is located on the side of the slide rail 3 facing the other slide rail 3. The two slide rails 3 are specifically fixed to the bottom of the tank body 1 by welding. The above-mentioned connector 4 is connected to the left and right sides of the shell 2a. At the bottom of the tank body 1, a slide rail 3 is fixed along the front side of the tank body 1 (the front side here refers to the side where the user stands to operate the water tank when in use) to the back side, and a connector 4 is connected to the outside of the housing 2a. The connector 4 slides into the chute 3a of the slide rail 3 so that the water purifier 2 can be suspended and connected to the bottom of the tank body 1. Although the water purifier 2 is still located inside the cabinet, because the water purifier 2 is connected to the bottom of the tank body 1, it takes up the space above the cabinet, which is usually idle. This is equivalent to making rational use of the internal space of the cabinet, thereby freeing up the position at the bottom of the cabinet originally used to install the water purifier 2, thereby saving a lot of space at the bottom of the cabinet. In addition, by using the connector 4 in conjunction with the slide rail 3 with the chute 3a, the water purifier 2 still retains the convenience of being easily disassembled for maintenance and pipe connection. The connector 4 is specifically a roller, and the housing 2a and the roller are specifically connected by a screw that passes through the roller and is threaded into the housing 2a. Using rollers as connectors 4 creates rolling friction between the housing 2a and the slide rails 3, saving the user effort when removing or installing the water purifier 2. The tank body 1 has a first bottom surface 1b and a second bottom surface 1c. The second bottom surface 1c is flat and higher than the first bottom surface 1b. The drain outlet 1a is located on the first bottom surface 1b, and the slide rails 3 are fixed to the second bottom surface 1c. The second bottom surface 1c is higher than the first bottom surface 1b, so that the bottom of the housing 2a does not protrude too much from the bottom of the tank body 1, thereby improving the overall integrity and preventing the water purifier 2 from taking up too much space on the upper part of the cabinet.

[0043] Furthermore, if Figure 4 、 Figure 5 and Figure 7As shown, both chutes 3a have downwardly concave limiting areas 3a1. The connectors 4 on the left and right sides of the housing 2a are located within the limiting areas 3a1 of the corresponding chutes 3a, and the connectors 4 are positioned within the limiting areas 3a1 along the front-to-back direction. By having the limiting areas 3a1 formed by the downward concave areas along the length of the chutes 3a, the connectors 4 automatically move into the limiting areas 3a1 as they move along the chutes 3a. By positioning the connectors 4 within the limiting areas 3a1 along the front-to-back direction, the housing is well positioned in the front-to-back direction, preventing the water purifier 2 from slipping under its own weight due to deviations in the horizontality of the chutes 3a or settlement of the building. In this embodiment, there are two connectors 4 on both sides of the housing 2a. The two connectors 4 on the same side are located near the front and rear ends of the housing 2a, respectively. The two connectors 4 on the same side are both located within the limiting area 3a1 of the chute 3a. The connector 4 located closer to the front of the two connectors 4 on the same side abuts against the front inner wall of the limiting area 3a1, and the connector 4 located closer to the rear of the two connectors 4 on the same side abuts against the rear inner wall of the limiting area 3a1. The upper end of the front inner wall of the limiting area 3a1 is tilted forward relative to the lower end. The connectors 4 are rollers. There are two connectors 4 on both sides of the housing 2a. The two connectors 4 on the same side are located near the front and rear ends of the housing 2a, respectively. This allows for smoother movement of the housing 2a. After the shell 2a is installed, the two connecting parts 4 on the same side will be located in the limiting area 3a1 of the slide groove 3a, among which the connecting part 4 located closer to the front will abut against the front inner wall of the limiting area 3a1, and the connecting part 4 located closer to the back will abut against the rear inner wall of the limiting area 3a1, thereby achieving firm positioning of the shell 2a in the front-to-back direction.

[0044] Furthermore, if Figure 8 As shown, the filter assembly 2b includes a water purifier filter element 2b1 arranged in a front-to-back direction. The front end of the housing 2a has an installation port 2a1, and the water purifier filter element 2b1 is installed into the housing 2a through the installation port 2a1. The front end of the housing 2a is detachably connected to a decorative cover 2c, and the front side of the decorative cover 2c is fixedly connected to a handle 2c1. By providing the decorative cover 2c with a handle 2c1, the user can easily pull out the entire water purifier 2 by simply grasping the handle 2c1 and pulling it outward. In practice, a magnet is fixed to the front end of the housing 2a, and the decorative cover 2c is made of metal. The decorative cover 2c and the housing 2a are connected by the magnet.

[0045] In this embodiment, if Figure 2As shown, filter assembly 2b also includes a wastewater pipe. The bottom of housing 2a has a drain port 2a2. The diameter of drain port 2a2 is larger than that of the wastewater pipe, and the wastewater pipe ends at drain port 2a2. Filter assembly 2b also has several interfaces located outside the rear end of housing 2a. These interfaces are used to connect to the water supply and power supply, etc. The wastewater pipe and interfaces are conventional technology and will not be described in detail here.
