Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of sterilization and disinfection equipment technology, and in particular to a sterilization fluid device. Background Technology
[0002] As people's demand for food safety and health increases, a related technology has emerged that uses tap water and edible salt to produce a non-toxic sodium hypochlorite solution through electrolysis. This sodium hypochlorite solution can disinfect various bacteria and pesticide residues on the surface of fruits and vegetables, ensuring food safety and health.
[0003] Currently, the main method for generating sodium hypochlorite solution on the market is to place an electrolysis generator in a container containing vegetables or fruits, and add salt manually. The electrolysis generator then electrolyzes the salt water to obtain the sodium hypochlorite solution. This type of product is generally not easy to use, and the amount of salt added and the electrolysis time will affect the final disinfection effect. Utility Model Content

[0032] In the description of this utility model, it should be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," and "joining" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal connection of two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model based on the specific circumstances.
[0033] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 This utility model discloses a sterilization fluid device, comprising: a main body 100, wherein the main body 100 has a first fluid channel 110 inside, and the main body 100 has an inlet 120 and a first outlet 130 connected to the first fluid channel 110; a container 200 disposed in the main body 100 for storing salt, the container 200 having a microporous structure connected to the first fluid channel 110, the microporous structure allowing salt to enter the first fluid channel 110 and mix with water to obtain brine; and an electrolysis module 300 located on the path of the first fluid channel 110 for electrolyzing the brine to form a sodium hypochlorite solution.
[0034] External water enters the first fluid channel 110 through inlet 120 and passes through the microporous structure of container 200. Water seeps into the microporous structure, dissolving salt near it. The dissolved salt mixes with the flowing water in the first fluid channel 110 to form brine. The brine then passes through electrolysis module 300 to form sodium hypochlorite solution, which flows out from the first outlet 130. The sodium hypochlorite solution achieves sterilization and disinfection. Compared to traditional methods that require manual salt addition and control of the electrolysis module 300's operating time, this sterilization fluid device automatically adds a small amount of salt into the first fluid channel 110 via water flow through the microporous structure. The salt addition is stable, and the brine concentration is uniform, resulting in a stable concentration of the produced sodium hypochlorite solution. This makes operation very convenient. Furthermore, the large amount of salt stored in container 200 is sufficient for the sterilization fluid device to operate for an extended period; if the salt level is insufficient, it can be replenished simply by adding more salt to container 200. It is conceivable that inlet 120 can be used to connect to tap water or a water source driven by a water pump.
[0035] See Figures 2 to 4In some embodiments of this utility model, the first fluid channel 110 is connected to the first outlet 130 through the brine mixing chamber 400. The container 200 has a storage chamber 201 arranged vertically for storing salt. The bottom of the storage chamber 201 is provided with a slow-release element 500 with the microporous structure. The microporous structure connects the brine mixing chamber 400 and the storage chamber 201. It is understandable that when water flows from the first fluid channel 110 into the brine mixing chamber 400, it comes into contact with the slow-release element 500 at the bottom of the storage chamber 201. The water dissolves the salt at the bottom of the storage chamber 201 through the microporous structure of the slow-release element 500. Since the storage chamber 201 is arranged vertically, the salt has a tendency to move downward through the microporous structure due to its own gravity. When the salt in the microporous structure is dissolved into a high-concentration brine, the high-concentration brine flows downward into the brine mixing chamber 400 and mixes with the flowing water to form a lower-concentration brine, which is beneficial for the mixing of salt and water, thereby supplying the electrolysis module 300 for electrolysis.
[0036] See Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 8 In some embodiments of this utility model, the container 200 includes a can body 210 with an opening facing downwards and an end cap 220 that closes the opening of the can body 210. The main body 100 is provided with a partition 140 facing the end cap 220. The area between the end cap 220 and the partition 140 defines the brine mixing chamber 400. The end cap 220 has an annular wall 221 extending downwards to abut against the partition 140. 21. The brine mixing chamber 400 is divided into an outer ring chamber 410 and an inner circular chamber 420. The annular wall plate 221 has a notch 222 that connects the outer ring chamber 410 and the inner circular chamber 420. The end cap 220 is provided with a plurality of through holes 223 at intervals on the top wall of the outer ring chamber 410, which can connect the outer ring chamber 410 and the microporous structure. The partition plate 140 is provided with a drain port 141 located in the inner circular chamber 420.
[0037] It is conceivable that water entering the brine mixing chamber 400 sequentially could easily become turbulent, causing unmixed fluid to flow directly towards the electrolysis module 300, resulting in insufficient brine concentration and consequently, insufficient sodium hypochlorite solution concentration. With the above structural design, water output from the first fluid channel 110 to the brine mixing chamber 400 first enters the outer ring cavity 410. Water within the outer ring cavity 410 enters the microporous structure through the through-hole 223, allowing the water in the outer ring cavity 410 to fully mix with the salt to obtain a uniformly concentrated brine solution. The brine then flows into the inner circular cavity 420 through the notch 222. The brine in the inner circular cavity 420 flows towards the electrolysis module 300 through the drain port 141. After electrolysis by the electrolysis module 300, it is discharged from the first outlet 130, thus forming a uniformly concentrated sodium hypochlorite solution.
[0038] Additionally, see Figure 3 and Figure 8 In this embodiment, in order to ensure that the water entering the outer annular cavity 410 from the first fluid channel 110 is mixed with salt before entering the notch 222, the notch 222 is offset from the output end of the first fluid channel 110, and the annular wall plate 221 has a baffle 225 located between the notch 222 and the output end of the first fluid channel 110. The baffle 225 extends radially outward along the annular wall plate 221 to abut against the inner wall of the outer annular cavity 410, so that the water entering the outer annular cavity 410 can enter the inner circular cavity 420 from the notch 222 after circulating around nearly 360°.
[0039] See Figure 2 , Figure 4 and Figure 7In some embodiments of this utility model, the main body 100 is provided with a sleeve 150 around the outer periphery of the partition 140, which is fitted around the outer periphery of the opening of the can 210. The can 210 and the sleeve 150 are detachably connected by a rotating snap-fit structure. The inner peripheral wall of the can 210 is provided with a stop portion 211 that abuts against the end cap 220. The slow-release component 500 is a filter cloth or a filter screen. The end cap 220 is provided with a plurality of snap-fit components 224 arranged in a circle, which press and fix the outer peripheral edge of the slow-release component 500. Specifically, the filter cloth is made of non-woven fabric, and the filter screen is made of nylon mesh or sponge mesh, etc. The pores of the filter cloth or filter screen constitute the above-mentioned microporous structure, which can achieve the function of slowly releasing salt. During assembly, the filter cloth or filter screen is first installed on the end cap 220 and pressed and fixed by multiple fasteners 224. Then, the end cap 220 is placed into the tank body 210 and limited by the stop part 211. When the tank body 210 is installed on the sleeve 150 through the rotating buckle structure, the annular wall plate 221 abuts against the partition plate 140, thereby realizing the installation and fixation of the container 200 and the positioning and fixation of the slow-release component 500. The above structure also makes it easy to add salt or replace the slow-release component 500.
[0040] See Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 In some embodiments of this utility model, the main body 100 is provided with an inlet pipe 160 for connecting to a faucet at the inlet 120, the main body 100 is provided with a drain pipe 170, and a valve core 600 is movably disposed inside the main body 100. The valve core 600 is movable relative to the main body 100 to have a first state and a second state. When the valve core 600 is in the first state, the inlet pipe 160 is connected to the first fluid channel 110 and is isolated from the drain pipe 170. When the valve core 600 is in the second state, the inlet pipe 160 is connected to the drain pipe 170 and is isolated from the first fluid channel 110.
[0041] It should be noted that, to facilitate user operation of the sterilization fluid device of this utility model, the inlet pipe 160 is connected to a faucet. Depending on the type of faucet, the inlet pipe 160 can be configured with external or internal threads for connection. When the user does not need to generate sodium hypochlorite solution, the user drives the valve core 600 to move relative to the main body 100 to the second state. At this time, the inlet pipe 160 is connected to the drain pipe 170 and isolated from the first fluid channel 110. Tap water enters through the inlet pipe 160 and is discharged directly from the drain pipe 170, realizing the function of direct tap water output. When the user needs to generate sodium hypochlorite solution, the user drives the valve core 600 to move relative to the main body 100 to the first state. At this time, the inlet pipe 160... Connected to the first fluid channel 110 and isolated from the drain pipe 170, tap water enters through the inlet pipe 160, passes through the first fluid channel 110, and then through the microporous structure of the container 200. Water seeps into the microporous structure, dissolving the salt near it. The dissolved salt mixes with the flowing water in the first fluid channel 110 to form salt water. After passing through the electrolysis module 300, the salt water forms a sodium hypochlorite solution, which flows out from the first outlet 130. The sodium hypochlorite solution achieves sterilization and disinfection. This structure enables the generation of sodium hypochlorite solution and direct water discharge, allowing users to choose according to their specific needs.
[0042] See Figure 2 and Figure 6 In some embodiments of this utility model, the main body 100 has a horizontally placed cylindrical portion 180, and the valve core 600 is rotatably disposed around the axis of the cylindrical portion 180. The side wall of the cylindrical portion 180 has a first through hole 181 that can communicate with the water inlet pipe 160 and a second through hole 182 that can communicate with the drain pipe 170. One end of the valve core 600 is connected to a knob 610 that extends out of the main body 100 to drive its rotation. The valve core 600 has a cavity inside, and the valve core 600 has a first connecting hole 182 that is always connected to the first through hole 181. The valve core 600 has a through-hole 620 and a second connecting port 630 corresponding to the second through hole 182. The end of the valve core 600 away from the knob 610 is connected to the first fluid channel 110 via a rotary switch assembly 700. When the valve core 600 is rotated to the first state, the second connecting port 630 is isolated from the second through hole 182 and the rotary switch assembly 700 is in the open state. When the valve core 600 is rotated to the second state, the second connecting port 630 is connected to the second through hole 182 and the rotary switch assembly 700 is in the closed state.
[0043] Understandably, when a user needs to generate a sodium hypochlorite solution, the user grasps the knob 610 to drive the valve core 600 to rotate to the first state. Water in the inlet pipe 160 enters the cavity of the valve core 600 through the first through hole 181. At this time, the second connecting port 630 and the second through hole 182 cannot be connected. The rotary switch assembly 700 is in the open state, and the water in the cavity of the valve core 600 can enter the first fluid channel 110. Then, it passes through the microporous structure of the container 200. The water seeps into the microporous structure and dissolves the salt near the microporous structure. The dissolved salt mixes with the water flowing in the first fluid channel 110 to form salt water. After passing through the electrolysis module 300, the salt water forms a sodium hypochlorite solution and flows out from the first outlet 130. When the user does not need to generate sodium hypochlorite solution, the user grasps the knob 610 to drive the valve core 600 to the second state. At this time, the second connecting port 630 is connected to the second through hole 182, the rotary switch assembly 700 is in the closed state, and the water in the inlet pipe 160 enters the cavity of the valve core 600 through the first through hole 181. Then, the water in the cavity of the valve core 600 can be discharged from the drain pipe 170 through the second connecting port 630 and the second through hole 182 in sequence, realizing the function of direct tap water output. With the above structure, switching the valve core 600 between the first and second states is very simple and easy to operate, and the water flow pressure will not cause the valve core 600 to rotate.
[0044] In this embodiment, the first connecting port 620 has two through holes circumferentially distributed around the rotation axis of the valve core 600. When the valve core 600 rotates to the first state, one of the through holes is directly opposite the first through hole 181. When the valve core 600 rotates to the second state, the other through hole is directly opposite the first through hole 181, so that the first connecting port 620 is always connected to the first through hole 181.
[0045] It is conceivable that in some other embodiments, the valve core 600 can be designed to slide, so that the second communication port 630 and the second through hole 182 are aligned or misaligned. Accordingly, a door plate that can elastically close the first fluid channel 110 can be provided between the valve core 600 and the first fluid channel 110. When the valve core 600 is pushed to slide to the first state, the door plate can be opened to open the first fluid channel 110. Of course, as long as the valve core 600 can stably switch between the first state and the second state, other structures are equally acceptable.
[0046] See Figure 2 and Figure 7In some embodiments of this utility model, the rotary switch assembly 700 includes a first water-passing plate 710 fixedly connected to the end of the valve core 600 away from the knob 610 and a second water-passing plate 720 fixedly disposed at the inlet of the first fluid channel 110. The second water-passing plate 720 abuts against the end face of the first water-passing plate 710. The first water-passing plate 710 is provided with a first water-passing hole 711 communicating with the cavity. The second water-passing plate 720 is provided with a second water-passing hole 721. The valve core 600 can be rotated so that the first water-passing hole 711 and the second water-passing hole 721 are aligned to allow water to enter the first fluid channel 110, or the valve core 600 can be rotated so that the first water-passing hole 711 and the second water-passing hole 721 are misaligned to block water from entering the first fluid channel 110. Understandably, when the user grasps the knob 610 to drive the valve core 600 to the first state, the first water passage hole 711 and the second water passage hole 721 are aligned, and the water in the cavity of the valve core 600 can enter the first fluid channel 110 through the first water passage hole 711 and the second water passage hole 721, and then complete the steps of brine mixing and brine electrolysis. However, when the user grasps the knob 610 to drive the valve core 600 to the second state, the first water passage hole 711 and the second water passage hole 721 are misaligned, and since the second water passage plate 720 abuts against the end face of the first water passage plate 710, the entrance of the first fluid channel 110 is closed, and the water in the cavity of the valve core 600 can only be discharged from the drain pipe 170 through the second connecting port 630 and the second through hole 182.
[0047] In this embodiment, in order to keep the end faces of the second water-passing plate 720 and the first water-passing plate 710 in contact, thereby reducing the risk of overflow leakage, the main body 100 is provided with an elastic washer that pushes the second water-passing plate 720 against the first water-passing plate 710.
[0048] See Figure 7 In some embodiments of this utility model, the main body 100 is provided with a trigger component 800 for sensing that the valve core 600 is in the first state. Both the trigger component 800 and the electrolysis module 300 are electrically connected to the control module. It is understood that when the valve core 600 moves to the first state relative to the main body 100, the inlet pipe 160 is connected to the first fluid channel 110 and isolated from the drain pipe 170. Tap water passes through the first fluid channel 110 and the microporous structure of the container 200 to obtain brine. The electrolysis module 300 starts working to ionize the brine. Due to the presence of the trigger component 800, when the valve core 600 is in the first state, the control module automatically controls the electrolysis module 300 to start, and when the valve core 600 is in the second state, the control module automatically controls the electrolysis module 300 to shut down. This eliminates the need for individual user operation to start and stop the electrolysis module 300, improving ease of use.
[0049] See Figure 7 In some embodiments of this utility model, the triggering component 800 includes a Hall sensor 810 and a magnet 820 cooperating with the Hall sensor 810. One of the magnet 820 and the Hall sensor 810 is disposed on the knob 610, and the other is disposed on the main body 100. In this embodiment, the knob 610 is connected to the magnet 820, and the Hall sensor 810 is fixed at a corresponding position on the main body 100. When the knob 610 rotates until the magnet 820 approaches the Hall sensor 810, a signal is transmitted to the control module, which then supplies power to the electrolysis module 300. When the knob 610 rotates until the magnet 820 moves away from the Hall sensor 810, the control module stops supplying power to the electrolysis module 300. It is conceivable that in other embodiments, the triggering component 800 can also be replaced with a proximity switch or a limit switch, which can be triggered when the knob 610 rotates.
[0050] See Figure 2 and Figure 7 In some embodiments of this utility model, an arc-shaped sealing plate 900 is further provided between the outer peripheral wall of the valve core 600 and the drain pipe 170. The arc-shaped sealing plate 900 is fixedly disposed relative to the drain pipe 170. The arc-shaped sealing plate 900 has a third connecting port 910 that is directly opposite to the second connecting port 630. The arc-shaped sealing plate 900 is provided with two sealing ribs 920 spaced apart along the length direction of the valve core 600 and located on both sides of the third connecting port 910. The sealing ribs 920 extend along the circumference of the valve core 600 and are tightly fitted to the outer peripheral wall of the valve core 600. It should be noted that there is a clearance when the valve core 600 rotates relative to the cylindrical part 180. When the valve core 600 is in the first state, the second connecting port 630 and the second through hole 182 need to be isolated to prevent water from seeping out from the gap between the valve core 600 and the cylindrical part 180 to the first outlet 130. The arc sealing plate 900 and the sealing rib 920 can achieve the above effect.
[0051] The technical features of the above embodiments can be combined in any way. For the sake of brevity, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.
[0052] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, those skilled in the art will understand that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the claims and their equivalents.
