[0027] The water purifier temperature adjusting module provided by the application comprises a temperature adjusting assembly 100 and an energy storage assembly 200. The temperature adjusting assembly 100 has an energy end 11 for generating heat and / or for refrigeration. The energy end 11 comprises a heat dissipation end 02 for generating heat and / or a refrigeration end 01 for refrigeration. The energy storage assembly 200 has an energy storage bin 21. The energy storage bin 21 is internally provided with an energy storage medium 22. The energy end 11 is at least partially arranged in the energy storage bin 21. The energy storage medium 22 in the energy storage bin 21 is in contact with the energy end 11. The heat dissipated by the energy end 11 can be transferred to the energy storage medium 22, or the energy end 11 can continuously refrigerate the energy storage medium 22. In this way, the water purifier temperature adjusting module can sufficiently utilize the heat dissipated by the heat dissipation pipeline.

[0028] In actual application, as shown in Figure 1 、 Figure 2 The water purifier temperature adjusting module provided by the application further comprises a compressor 300 and an expansion valve 400. The energy end 11 comprises a refrigeration end 01 and a heat dissipation end 02. The compressor 300 and the expansion valve 400 are connected with the heat dissipation end 02 and the expansion valve 400 through a pipeline. The pipeline is internally provided with a refrigerant (for example, ammonia, freon-12, freon-22, R-134a, R-404A refrigerant, R-410A refrigerant, azeotropic refrigerant and hydrocarbon refrigerant). The refrigerant is vaporized after passing through the expansion valve 400 and then enters the refrigeration end 01, so that the temperature of the refrigeration end 01 is reduced. The compressor 300 compresses the vaporized refrigerant into liquid (it should be noted that the temperature of the refrigerant will rapidly increase during the process of being compressed into liquid) and then the liquid enters the heat dissipation end 02, so that the temperature of the heat dissipation end 02 is increased. During the working process of the compressor 300 and the expansion valve 400, the energy storage medium 22 in contact with the refrigeration end 01 is refrigerated through the refrigeration end 01, and the energy storage medium 22 in contact with the heat dissipation end 02 is heated through the heat dissipation end 02. In this way, the heat dissipated by the heat dissipation end 02 can be absorbed and stored by the energy storage medium 22 for subsequent utilization. Since the energy storage medium 22 is in contact with the heat dissipation end 02 or the refrigeration end 01, the heat dissipation end 02 and the refrigeration end 01 can rapidly and efficiently exchange heat, thereby improving the heat exchange rate between the energy end 11 and the energy storage medium 22.

[0029] In addition to the above effects, due to the storage effect of the energy storage medium 22 on heat and cold, the compressor 300 can start working in advance to heat or refrigerate the energy storage medium 22, so as to accumulate heat and cold. Therefore, the water purifier temperature adjusting module does not need to use high-power equipment to ensure the heating / refrigeration effect, thereby reducing the use power and volume of the water purifier temperature adjusting module.

[0030] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0031] In some embodiments, the energy storage bin 21 includes a high-temperature bin and / or a low-temperature bin, and the energy storage medium 22 includes a high-temperature medium 221 and / or a low-temperature medium 222, wherein the low-temperature bin is provided with a low-temperature medium 222, and the refrigeration end 01 is at least partially provided inside the low-temperature bin and in direct contact with the low-temperature medium 222; similarly, the high-temperature bin is provided with a high-temperature medium 221, and the heat dissipation end 02 is at least partially provided inside the high-temperature bin and in direct contact with the high-temperature medium 221. Through the above structure, the refrigeration end 01 and the heat dissipation end 02 can exchange heat with the low-temperature medium 222 and the high-temperature medium 221 quickly and efficiently, respectively.

[0032] In practical applications, such as Figure 1 、 Figure 2 As shown, the energy storage bin 21 includes a high-temperature bin and a low-temperature bin, and the energy storage medium 22 includes a high-temperature medium 221 and a low-temperature medium 222. The high-temperature medium 221 is arranged inside the high-temperature bin, and the low-temperature medium 222 is arranged inside the low-temperature bin. The heat dissipation end 02 and the cooling end 01 are respectively arranged inside the high-temperature bin and the low-temperature bin, and are in direct contact with the high-temperature medium 221 and the low-temperature medium 222 respectively to facilitate heat exchange.

[0033] The above-mentioned low-temperature medium 222 can be a substance with a freezing point lower than water and is liquid at room temperature and pressure (for example, alcohol). In this way, the cooling end 01 can be immersed in the low-temperature medium 222, so that the cooling end 01 can transfer heat more evenly and fully with the low-temperature medium 222; the above-mentioned high-temperature medium 221 can be a substance with a boiling point higher than water and is liquid at room temperature and pressure (for example, oil). In this way, the heat dissipation end 02 can be immersed in the high-temperature medium 221, so that the heat dissipation end 02 can transfer heat more evenly and fully with the high-temperature medium 221.

[0034] In addition to the above effects, the low-temperature medium 222 and the high-temperature medium 221 are both liquid, and liquid convection can occur during the heat exchange process with the cooling end 01 and the heat dissipation end 02, respectively, so that the low-temperature medium 222 and the high-temperature medium 221 can exchange heat with the cooling end 01 and the heat dissipation end 02 as a whole, respectively, without the phenomenon of local medium heat exchange saturation.

[0035] Preferably, Figure 1 、 Figure 2 、 Figure 3As shown, the cooling end 01 and the heat dissipation end 02 can be a double helix structure, and the temperature control component 100 uses a compressor 300 and an expansion valve 400 to perform temperature control. The double helix winding method can increase the winding density of the cooling end 01 and the heat dissipation end 02 inside the low temperature chamber and the high temperature chamber respectively. Please refer to Figure 2 It can be understood that within a certain range, the greater the winding density of the cooling end 01 and the heat dissipation end 02 within the low-temperature and high-temperature compartments, respectively, the greater the direct contact area between the cooling end 01 and the heat dissipation end 02 and the low-temperature medium 222 and the high-temperature medium 221, respectively. The larger the contact area, the more conducive it is to heat exchange between the cooling end 01 and the heat dissipation end 02 and the low-temperature medium 222 and the high-temperature medium 221, respectively. The refrigerant flows along the double helix structure, allowing the cooling end 01 and the heat dissipation end 02 to uniformly heat and cool the nearby low-temperature medium 222 and high-temperature medium 221, respectively, thereby preventing local temperatures from being too low or too high, which could cause changes in the properties of the low-temperature medium 222 and high-temperature medium 221.

[0036] It can be understood that the double helix structure of the above-mentioned cooling end 01 and the heat dissipation end 02 can be wrapped from the outside to the center inside the low-temperature chamber or the high-temperature chamber, or from the center to the outside, so as to further achieve uniform and rapid heat exchange between the cooling end 01 and the low-temperature medium 222, and the heat dissipation end 02 and the high-temperature medium 221.

[0037] In some embodiments, as Figure 2 As shown, the energy terminal 11 has a main body 111, which is at least partially disposed inside the energy storage compartment 21, and the energy storage medium 22 surrounds the outside of the main body 111. The energy terminal 11 also has a plurality of spaced-apart split portions 112, which are at least partially disposed inside the energy storage compartment 21, and the energy storage medium 22 surrounds the outside of the split portions 112 and is embedded between adjacent split portions 112. The spaced-apart arrangement of the plurality of split portions 112 can increase the surface area of ​​the energy terminal 11, and the embedding of the energy storage medium 22 between adjacent split portions 112 greatly increases the contact area between the energy terminal 11 and the energy storage medium 22, thereby increasing the heat exchange efficiency between the energy terminal 11 and the energy storage medium 22.

[0038] In some embodiments, the energy end 11 includes a first split portion and a second split portion, the first split portion is at least partially arranged inside the energy storage bin 21, and the second split portion serves as the side wall of the energy storage bin 21, or the second split portion is connected to the outer wall or inner wall of the energy storage bin 21. Through the above design, the energy end 11 can transfer heat through direct contact with the energy storage medium 22, and can also transfer heat through the side wall of the energy storage bin 21, which is beneficial to increase the heat transfer efficiency between the energy end 11 and the energy storage medium 22.

[0039] In some embodiments, a stirring assembly is arranged between the first and second body parts for stirring the energy storage medium 22. The energy storage medium 22 can be uniformly heated by the stirring, which improves the heat exchange efficiency between the energy end 11 and the energy storage medium 22 and avoids local overcooling or overheating of the energy storage medium 22.

[0040] In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 2 、 Figure 3 The inner wall of the energy storage bin 21 is provided with a limiting member, which is in clamping connection with the part of the energy end 11 located inside the energy storage bin, for fixing the position of the energy end 11 and avoiding adverse effects on the heat exchange efficiency between the energy end 11 and the energy storage medium 22 due to the position deviation of the energy end 11.

[0041] In some embodiments, a predetermined space 001 is arranged between the energy storage medium 22 and the inner wall of the energy storage bin 21, which provides a space for expansion or contraction of the energy storage medium 22.

[0042] As shown in Figure 4 , the predetermined space 001 is arranged between the low-temperature medium 222 and the inner wall of the low-temperature bin and between the high-temperature medium 221 and the inner wall of the high-temperature bin.

[0043] In actual use, the volume of the low-temperature medium 222 and the high-temperature medium 221 changes with the temperature. In order to avoid excessive extrusion or contraction pressure of the low-temperature medium 222 on the low-temperature bin and the high-temperature medium 221 on the high-temperature bin, the predetermined space 001 provides a certain space for the volume change of the low-temperature medium 222 and the high-temperature medium 221, thereby protecting the low-temperature bin and the high-temperature bin.

[0044] In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 3 、 Figure 4 The energy storage bin 21 includes a bin body 211 and a film 212, the film 212 is in sealing connection with the bin body 211, and the side of the film 212 close to the inside of the bin body 211 is in communication with the inside of the bin body 211. The film 212 is made of a high-temperature-resistant and low-temperature-resistant elastic material, and the edge of the film 212 is in sealing connection with the energy storage bin 21 by secondary injection molding.

[0045] When the volume of the energy storage medium 22 changes due to temperature change, the film 212 changes in volume by elastic deformation, thereby avoiding excessive extrusion or contraction pressure of the energy storage medium 22 on the energy storage bin 21 and protecting the energy storage bin 21.

[0046] In some embodiments, the energy storage bin 21 is provided with a vacuum interlayer for heat insulation.

[0047] In some embodiments, the energy storage assembly 200 further comprises a heat insulation layer 23 made of heat insulation material and wrapped outside the energy storage bin 21 to play a role of heat insulation, so that the energy storage medium 22 in the energy storage bin 21 can better store and accumulate cold or heat.

[0048] The application also provides a water purifier comprising the water purifier temperature regulating module.

[0049] In the description of the present application, it should be further explained that, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "arrange", "mount", "connect", "connect" should be understood broadly, for example, it can be fixedly connected, or it can be detachably connected, or integrally connected; it can be mechanically connected, or it can be electrically connected; it can be directly connected, or it can be indirectly connected through an intermediate medium, or it can be the communication between two elements. For ordinary skilled in the art, the specific meaning of the above terms in the present application can be understood according to the specific circumstances.

[0050] It should be noted that, in this paper, such as first and second relationship terms are only used to distinguish one entity or operation from another entity or operation, and do not necessarily require or imply any such actual relationship or order between the entities or operations. Moreover, the term "include", "contain" or any other variant thereof is intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, so that the process, method, article or equipment including a series of elements not only includes those elements, but also includes other elements not explicitly listed, or includes elements inherent in such process, method, article or equipment.
