Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of water heater technology, specifically to a scale-proof and corrosion-proof water filtration device for household water heaters. Background Technology
[0002] A water heater is a device that uses various physical principles to raise the temperature of cold water to hot water within a certain period of time. Water heaters can be classified according to different principles, such as electric water heaters, gas water heaters, solar water heaters, magnetic water heaters, air source water heaters, and heating water heaters. Their structure consists of a cold air generation section and a hot water generation section. The main function of a water heater is to produce hot water.
[0003] For example, the Chinese Utility Model Application provides "A Novel Wall-Mounted Water Heater with Multiple Repeated Protection Functions," with publication number CN216203731U. This application includes an inlet pipe, an outlet pipe, and a main body shell. The inlet pipe and outlet pipe are installed at the lower end of the main body shell. The inlet pipe is located on the right side of the outlet pipe, and a filter device passes through the lower end of the outlet pipe. The filter device includes a shell A, a filter screen, and a shell B. The desired temperature is adjusted by a temperature regulator, and the internal temperature is observed by a temperature indicator. The indicator light will stay on until the water heats up to the set temperature. Then, tap water entering through the inlet pipe flows through the main body shell. After the water is heated internally, it flows out of the outlet pipe and then passes through the filter device. The filter screen in the filter device can filter out the scale in the hot water. After a period of use, the outer casing B can be opened, the filter screen can be removed and cleaned, and then rotated back on to ensure a good filtration effect and not affect the water flow rate. Although the water heater in the above technology can filter the scale in the water discharged from the outlet pipe, it cannot filter the scale in the water flowing through the inlet pipe. As a result, a certain amount of scale enters and adheres to the inside of the water heater, causing some corrosion to the inside of the water heater and affecting its service life. Utility Model Content
