[0002] The gas water heater is mainly through burning natural gas to heat water flow, but the user usually frequently switches the gas water heater during water use, so that the water temperature heated by the gas water heater is unstable, and the existing gas water heater mainly mixes hot water and cold water through the water storage tank.
[0003] The patent gas water heater and its water storage tank with the announcement number CN206905307U disclose a traditional water storage tank, which is composed of an upper end cover, a barrel body and a lower end cover in a three-section structure; the patent water storage device and gas water heater with the announcement number CN219674473U creatively adopt a spiral pipe-shaped water storage tank, which prolongs the time length of hot water flowing in the water storage tank and improves the effect of balancing water temperature fluctuation.
[0004] However, the domestic gas water heater is directly connected to the tap water pipe, and the tap water contains many impurities. For example, the electric water heater usually has a dedicated blowdown port for periodic removal of scale. Although the traditional bucket-type water storage tank is beneficial to scale removal, the balancing effect of water temperature fluctuation is not good. The screw-filling water storage tank has many bending parts, which are prone to accumulate scale and cause blockage, and cleaning is very difficult. Once blocked, it can only be replaced.

[0010] Preferably, a connecting ring is fixed to the outer periphery of the side of the two half-barrels close to each other, the two connecting rings are attached to each other, and a fixed joint plate is fixed to the side of the two connecting rings away from each other at equal intervals, and the two fixed joint plates on the two connecting rings are connected by screws.
[0011] Preferably, an annular groove is formed on the side of the two connecting rings close to each other, and the two annular grooves are closed to form a cavity in which a rubber sealing ring is arranged.
[0012] Preferably, the half-barrel, the waterproof plate, the connecting ring and the fixed joint plate are all made of stainless steel.
[0013] Preferably, the cross section of the protruding rib is in the shape of a semicircular ring.
[0014] Compared with the prior art, the utility model has the following advantages:
[0015] Combined with the traditional cylindrical water storage device and the spiral pipe type water storage device, the waterproof plates are arranged at equal intervals in the cylinder surrounded by the two half-barrels, forming a wave-shaped flow channel, which not only prolongs the time of hot water flowing in the cylinder and ensures the room temperature fluctuation balance effect, but also reduces the probability of scale blockage, and the split type setting is beneficial to cleaning scale and more convenient to use.
[0016] The setting of the protruding rib can improve the overall strength of the half-barrel, and also forms a position for installing and connecting the waterproof plate, so that the outer periphery of the waterproof plate can be embedded in the recess of the protruding rib for fixation, and the other side of the waterproof plate can be inserted into the recess of the protruding rib on the other half-barrel, thereby improving the bearing strength of the waterproof plate during water flow impact, and effectively improving the quality of the whole device.
