[0031] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention more clearly understood, the present invention is further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention.

[0032] An embodiment of the present application provides a water purifier, which includes a water pump and a water pulse damper 100. One end of the water pump is connected to the water pulse damper 100, and the other end is connected to the water outlet structure. The water pulse damper 100 dampens the water pressure pumped out by the water pump booster pump and guides the dampened water flow to the water outlet structure. The water pressure after dampening is smaller, the flow is smoother, and the noise of the water purifier is reduced.

[0033] It should be noted that the water outlet structure can be equipment such as a water outlet faucet.

[0034] See Figure 1 , for the convenience of description, Figure 1Where X represents the axial direction, and Y represents the radial direction. The water pulse damper 100 includes a pipe 10 and a buffer 20. The pipe 10 is provided with a flow channel 101 and a receiving chamber 106. The flow channel 101 has a water inlet 102 and a water outlet 103. Along the axial direction X of the pipe 10, the receiving chamber 106 is connected to the flow channel 101 and is located between the water inlet 102 and the water outlet 103. The buffer 20 is arranged in the receiving chamber 106. The buffer 20 is connected to the pipe 10. A channel 201 is provided inside the buffer 20. The channel 201 is connected to the flow channel 101. The buffer 20 is used to buffer water pressure. The buffer 20 is at least partially made of an elastic material. Along the radial direction Y of the pipe 10, at least a portion of the buffer 20 is arranged relative to the pipe 10.

[0035] In actual application, the water inlet 102 of the flow channel 101 is connected to the water outlet pipe of the water pump. The water pump pressurizes the water and pumps it into the flow channel 101. The flow channel 101 guides the water into the channel 201 of the buffer 20. Since the material of the buffer 20 is elastic material, and the buffer 20 and the pipe 10 are spaced apart in the radial direction Y, when water flows into the channel 201, the buffer 20 is expanded outward by the water pressure. The distance between the pipe 10 and the buffer 20 provides the buffer 20 with space for deformation. The outward expansion of the buffer 20 increases the cross-section of the channel 201, thereby achieving the effect of relieving water pressure and avoiding vibration caused by excessive water pressure. At the same time, due to the elastic recovery ability of the buffer 20 itself, when the water pressure of the water flowing through the channel 201 is relatively small, the inner wall of the buffer 20 squeezes the water flow through the elastic recovery effect of the buffer 20, and the cross-section of the channel 201 is reduced, thereby increasing the flow rate of the water flow and increasing the water pressure, so that it can be more smoothly guided to the water outlet structure.

[0036] Compared to the existing technology, this application incorporates a buffer member 20, which is spaced apart from the pipe 10 to provide space for its deformation. Through its own elastic action, when water pressure is high, the buffer member 20 expands to relieve the water pressure and prevent vibration caused by excessive water pressure. When water pressure is low, the buffer member 20 elastically recovers and squeezes the water flow, increasing the water flow rate and pressure, facilitating its delivery to the water outlet structure. A water purifier employing this device can reduce noise generated during operation, reduce vibration caused by water pressure, and maintain the stability of the water outlet structure connection.

[0037] In one embodiment, see Figure 2 The buffer 20 includes a main body 202 and an extension 203. The two ends of the main body 202 are respectively connected to the extension 203. A channel 201 is opened inside the main body 202. The material of the main body 202 is elastic material; the extension 203 abuts against the pipe 10, and along the radial direction Y of the pipe 10, the main body 202 and the pipe 10 are arranged relative to each other.

[0038] The buffer member 20 includes a main portion 202 and an extension portion 203 that are interconnected. The main portion 202 is used to relieve water pressure. Therefore, the main portion 202 has a channel 201 formed therein and is made of an elastic material. The main portion 202 is spaced relative to the pipe 10 to facilitate elastic deformation of the main portion 202. The extension portion 203 is primarily used to connect to the pipe 10 to secure the buffer member 20 within the accommodating cavity 106. It is understood that the extension portion 203 can be connected to the pipe 10 by abutting, clamping, screwing, or welding, and this application does not limit this connection.

[0039] In one embodiment, see Figure 3 The extension portion 203 may be circumferentially connected to the outer peripheral side of the main body portion 202 . Specifically, the extension portion 203 may be circumferentially and continuously connected to the outer peripheral side of the main body portion 202 . This may enhance the stability of the connection between the extension portion 203 and the pipe 10 .

[0040] In one embodiment, see Figure 4 The extension portion 203 may also be connected to the outer peripheral side of the main body portion 202 at circumferential intervals. Specifically, the extension portion 203 is connected to the outer peripheral side of the main body portion 202 at circumferentially uniform intervals, so that the main body portion 202 is fixed in the accommodating cavity 106 more stably, while saving production costs.

[0041] See Figure 5 In one embodiment, the extension 203 can abut against the pipe 10 along the axial direction X of the pipe 10. This axial abutment between the extension 203 and the pipe 10 can prevent the buffer 20 from being dislodged by the impact of the water flow, thereby enhancing the stability of the connection between the buffer 20 and the pipe 10. Of course, the extension 203 can also abut against the pipe 10 along the radial direction Y of the pipe 10, thereby also enhancing the stability of the connection between the buffer 20 and the pipe 10.

[0042] It is understood that the extension portion 203 can extend in a direction away from the main body portion 202 until it abuts against the pipe 10 along the radial direction Y, such as Figure 5 As shown, this can strengthen the communication between the main body 202 and the flow channel 101; the extension portion 203 can also extend in the direction close to the channel 201 until it abuts against the pipe 10 along the radial direction Y, as shown in FIG. Figure 2 As shown, this can expand the diameter of the channel 201, increase the cross-sectional area of ​​the water flow, and facilitate the relief of the water flow pressure.

[0043] As a preferred embodiment, the extension portion 203 can abut against the pipe 10 along both the radial and axial directions X of the pipe 10. This further enhances the stability of the buffer 20 in the accommodating cavity 106 and prevents the buffer 20 from shaking under the impact of water flow.

[0044] See again Figure 5 The material of the extension part 203 can be an elastic material. Specifically, the extension part 203 and the main part 202 can adopt an integrally molded structure for easy production; or the extension part 203 can also be a rigid material, and the extension part 203 and the main part 202 can be separately molded, and then the two are connected together by welding or other means. In this way, the rigid extension part 203 has a better fixing effect.

[0045] See Figure 6 In one embodiment, along the radial direction Y of the pipe 10, the thickness of the main body 202 is L1mm, the diameter of the accommodating cavity 106 is L2mm, and the diameter of the channel 201 is L3mm, wherein L2 is 7-10 times of L1, and L3 is 3-4 times of L1.

[0046] In order to better achieve the mitigating effect of the main body 202, it is necessary to further limit the thickness of the main body 202. A main body 202 that is too thick is not conducive to deformation under water pressure, resulting in the inability to play a mitigating role; and a main body 202 that is too thin is easily damaged under water pressure, reducing the service life of the device. Therefore, the present application jointly limits the thickness of the main body 202 by the diameter of the accommodating cavity 106 and the diameter of the channel 201. The diameter L2 of the accommodating cavity 106 is 7-10 times the thickness L1 of the main body 202, and the diameter L3 of the channel 201 is 3-4 times the thickness L1 of the main body 202. This allows the main body 202 to play a better mitigating role while being less prone to damage.

[0047] It is understandable that in some other embodiments, the thickness of the main body 202 can also be set in other ways, and this application does not limit this.

[0048] See again Figure 6 In one embodiment, along the radial direction Y of the pipe 10 , the distance between the main body 202 and the pipe 10 is set to L4 mm, where 4<L4<6.

[0049] In addition to limiting the thickness of the main body 202, the present application also limits the distance between the main body 202 and the pipe 10 to avoid a distance that is too small, which affects the deformation of the main body 202, and to avoid a distance that is too large, which wastes space. This can make the device structure design more reasonable and reduce the production volume of the device.

[0050] See Figure 7In one embodiment, the pipeline 10 includes an inlet head 104 and an outlet head 105, the inlet head 104 has a water inlet 102 and a first cavity 107 connected to the water inlet 102, the outlet head 105 has a water outlet 103 and a second cavity 108 connected to the water outlet 103, and the inlet head 104 and the outlet head 105 can be detachably connected or fixedly connected to connect the first cavity 107 and the second cavity 108.

[0051] In actual application, the pipeline 10 includes an inlet head 104 and an outlet head 105. First, the buffer 20 is installed in the first cavity 107 or the second cavity 108, and then the inlet head 104 and the outlet head 105 are connected together to complete the assembly of the buffer; specifically, the inlet head 104 and the outlet head 105 can be detachably connected together by means of threads, etc., so as to facilitate the replacement of the internal buffer 20 after long-term use; of course, the inlet head 104 and the outlet head 105 can also be fixedly connected together by means of welding, etc., which can enhance the sealing of the connection and prevent water seepage.

[0052] See again Figure 6 In one embodiment, the water inlet head 104 at least partially extends into the channel 201 and abuts against the buffer 20; this can enhance the connection stability between the internal channel 201 of the buffer 20 and the flow channel 101, prevent the buffer 20 from being washed away, and also avoid water seepage.

[0053] Different from the prior art, the embodiment of the present application provides a water purifier and a water pulse damper 100 thereof. The water pulse damper 100 includes a pipe 10 and a buffer 20. A flow channel 101 and a accommodating chamber 106 are opened inside the pipe 10. The flow channel 101 has a water inlet 102 and a water outlet 103. Along the axial direction X of the pipe 10, the accommodating chamber 106 is connected to the flow channel 101 and is located between the water inlet 102 and the water outlet 103; the buffer 20 is arranged in the accommodating chamber 106, the buffer 20 is connected to the pipe 10, a channel 201 is opened inside the buffer 20, the channel 201 is connected to the flow channel 101, and the buffer 20 is used to buffer water pressure; wherein, at least part of the material of the buffer 20 is elastic material, and along the radial direction Y of the pipe 10, at least part of the buffer 20 is arranged relative to the pipe 10. Compared to the existing technology, this application incorporates a buffer member 20, which is spaced apart from the pipe 10 to provide space for its deformation. Through its own elastic action, when water pressure is high, the buffer member 20 expands to relieve the water pressure and prevent vibration caused by excessive water pressure. When water pressure is low, the buffer member 20 elastically recovers and squeezes the water flow, increasing the water flow rate and pressure, facilitating its delivery to the water outlet structure. A water purifier employing this device can reduce noise generated during operation, reduce vibration caused by water pressure, and maintain the stability of the water outlet structure connection.

[0054] The above is only a specific implementation method of the present application. It should be pointed out that for ordinary technicians in this technical field, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the principles of the present application. These improvements and modifications should also be regarded as the scope of protection of the present application.
