AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Air can easily get trapped in the silicone hose connecting the hot water inlet of the water tank and the water pump, causing the water pump to run dry. After running for a long time, the air cannot be completely expelled, causing the water pump to run dry and burn out. Alternatively, when hot water comes out, the pipe may contain air that cannot be filled, resulting in a hollow space that cannot form a stable water column.

Method used

A water pump air entrapment removal structure was designed, including a water tank, an exhaust pipe, a water pump, a T-pipe, an inlet pipe, a delivery pipe, an exhaust assembly, a heating assembly, and an output assembly. The air at the water pump inlet is transported to the water tank and discharged through the T-pipe and the exhaust assembly. The heating assembly and sealing components ensure that there is no air in the delivery pipe and the inlet pipe, forming a stable water column.

Benefits of technology

It effectively avoids the phenomenon of water pump running dry, ensures that the hot water output forms a stable water column, prevents water pump burnout, and solves the problem of air not being completely expelled in existing technologies.
