[0038] In this document, references to "embodiment" or "implementation" mean that a particular feature, structure, or characteristic described in connection with an embodiment or implementation may be included in at least one embodiment of the present invention. The appearance of this phrase in various places throughout the specification does not necessarily refer to the same embodiment, nor is it a separate or alternative embodiment mutually exclusive with other embodiments. It will be explicitly and implicitly understood by those skilled in the art that the embodiments described herein can be combined with other embodiments.
[0039] Currently, with the continuous improvement of people's living standards, the importance attached to drinking water is also increasing. The water that people can drink can be roughly divided into tap water, purified water, and mineral water. Tap water contains impurities, bacteria, and heavy metal pollution. Purified water is acidic and does not help maintain the body's acid-base balance. As the terminal device for water, the traditional faucets currently used in the market are only limited to safe water use and cannot detect and display the pH value and TDS value of the water flowing from the faucet.
[0040] Therefore, this embodiment provides a faucet 100 and a mineral water purification device 200. The faucet 100 can acquire and detect the pH value and / or TDS value of the water flowing from the faucet 100.
[0041] Please see Figure 1 A faucet 100 includes: a body 10, a faucet filter element 20, an acquisition module 30, and a display module 40;
[0042] The main body 10 has a mineralized water channel 11, the faucet filter element 20 is disposed on the mineralized water channel 11, and the acquisition module 30 is disposed on the mineralized water channel 11. The acquisition module 30 is used to acquire the pH value and / or TDS value of the mineralized water channel 11.
[0043] The display module 40 is disposed on the main body 10, and the display module 40 is used to display the pH value and / or TDS value acquired by the acquisition module 30.
[0044] The aforementioned main body 10 is provided with a mineralization water channel 11, and a faucet filter element 20 is provided on the mineralization water channel 11. The faucet filter element 20 mineralizes the water flow in the mineralization water channel 11. An acquisition module 30 is provided on the mineralization water channel 11 to acquire the pH value and / or TDS value of the mineralization water channel 11. After the acquisition module 30 acquires the pH value and / or TDS value, it displays the pH value and / or TDS value of the mineralization water channel 11 on the display module 40 provided on the main body 10, so that the user can more intuitively observe the current pH value and / or TDS value in the mineralization water channel 11.
[0045] Please see Figure 1 In some embodiments, the acquisition module 30 includes: a first acquisition unit 31 and a second acquisition unit 32;
[0046] The faucet filter element 20 has an inlet end 21 and an outlet end 22; the first acquisition unit 31 is disposed at the inlet end 21, and the first acquisition unit 31 is used to acquire the pH value and / or TDS value of the water flow at the inlet end 21; the second acquisition unit 32 is disposed at the outlet end 22, and the second acquisition unit 32 is used to acquire the pH value and / or TDS value of the water flow at the inlet end 21.
[0047] Understandably, the above-mentioned acquisition module includes: a first acquisition unit 31 and a second acquisition unit 32. The faucet filter element 20 has an inlet end 21 and an outlet end 22. The first acquisition unit 31 can be set at the inlet end 21, through which the pH value or TDS value of the water flow at the inlet end 21 can be detected. The second acquisition unit 32 can be set at the outlet end 22, through which the pH value or TDS value of the water flow at the outlet end 22 can be detected. After the first acquisition unit 31 and the second acquisition unit 32 acquire the pH value or TDS value of the current water flow, they send it to the display module 40. After processing the pH value and / or TDS value acquired by the first acquisition unit 31 and the second acquisition unit 32, the display module 40 can display the pH value and TDS value of the current water flow at the outlet end 22 and the inlet end 21 in real time.
[0048] It should be noted that the first acquisition unit 31 and the second acquisition unit 32 mentioned above are both used to acquire relevant data in the current water flow, such as the pH value and / or TDS value and / or heavy metal content and / or microbial content of the current water flow.
[0049] Please see Figure 6 In some implementations, it further includes: a controller 50;
[0050] The controller 50 is connected to the first acquisition unit 31 and the second acquisition unit 32 respectively. The controller 50 is used to acquire the signals of the first acquisition unit 31 and the second acquisition unit 32 and output them to the display module 40.
[0051] Understandably, the controller 50 is located outside the faucet 100 or the controller 50. The controller 50 is connected to the first acquisition unit 31 and the second acquisition unit 32 respectively. In this way, the controller 50 can acquire the pH value and / or TDS value of the water flow at the inlet 21 of the faucet filter cartridge 20 through the first acquisition unit 31, and acquire the pH value and / or TDS value of the water flow at the outlet 22 of the faucet filter cartridge 20 through the second acquisition unit 32. The controller 50 can then send the relevant data acquired by the first acquisition unit 31 and the second acquisition unit 32 to the controller 50. The controller 50 can then process the acquired data and send it to the display module 40 for display. This allows for visualization of the water quality at the inlet 21 and outlet 22 of the faucet filter cartridge 20.
[0052] Please see Figure 2 In some embodiments, it further includes: a communication unit 60;
[0053] The communication unit 60 is connected to the first acquisition unit 31 and the second acquisition unit 32, and the acquisition unit is used to communicate wirelessly with the controller 50.
[0054] Understandably, a communication unit 60 is also provided in the main body 10, and the communication unit 60 is connected to the first acquisition unit 31 and the second acquisition unit 32 respectively. When the first acquisition unit 31 acquires the TDS value and / or pH value of the inlet water 21, and the second acquisition unit 32 acquires the TDS value and / or pH value of the outlet water 22, they can communicate with the display module 40 through the communication unit 60. The display module 40 has a communication function, so the display module 40 can communicate wirelessly with the communication module. In this way, data can be sent to the display module 40 through the communication module, and the display module 40 can display the data after processing it.
[0055] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 2In some embodiments, both the first acquisition unit 31 and the second acquisition unit 32 are TDS sensors.
[0056] Understandably, both the first acquisition unit 31 and the second acquisition unit 32 mentioned above are TDS sensors. By measuring the total dissolved solids (TDS) content in the water using two TDS sensors, the water quality detection can be made more accurate. At the same time, the TDS sensor is simple in design and easy to operate. It can directly output digital signals that can be directly received and used by the display module, which can reduce the size and complexity of the entire system. Furthermore, the TDS sensor can convert the TDS value into a pH value after simple calculation by the controller 50. Thus, the pH value and TDS value can be obtained using only the TDS sensor.
[0057] Please see Figures 3 to 5 In some embodiments, the display module 40 includes: a signal display area 41, a numerical display area 42, a control area 43, and a PH / TDS display area 44.
[0058] Understandably, to facilitate observation and control, the display module 40 is divided into multiple display areas. Specifically, it is divided into a signal display area 41, a numerical display area 42, a control area 43, and a pH / TDS display area 44. The signal display area 41 displays the current communication status of the main body 10; the numerical display shows the current pH / TDS value in the pH / TDS display area 44; the control area 43 allows setting buttons for the pH value, flow rate, or pausing the flow; and the pH / TDS display area 44 displays the current water flow pH / TDS in a bar graph (e.g., pH / TDS). Figures 3 to 5 (As shown).
[0059] The control area 43 can be configured with different control methods and includes corresponding touch buttons for adjusting the TDS or pH value of the water from the faucet 100. For example, one touch area can be set to a fixed TDS or pH value, with the touch buttons correspondingly set to pH=7, pH=7.5, and pH=8. Another touch area can be configured to allow adjustment of the pH value of the water from the faucet 100 using a plus or minus button. All buttons in different touch areas can adjust the current value. For instance, if a user needs drinking water with a pH of 7.3, they can adjust it using the pH=7.5 and minus buttons. This improves the portability of button adjustments, making it more convenient to set the preset pH value for the faucet 100.
[0060] Of course, in other implementations, only the touch area and the display area may be set; or other settings may be used.
[0061] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 6 In some embodiments, the body 10 includes: a main body portion 12 and a connecting portion 13;
[0062] The main body 12 is rotatably connected to the connecting part 13. The connecting part 13 has a receiving cavity 131, and the first acquisition unit 31, the second acquisition unit 32, the communication unit 60, the controller 50, and the faucet filter element 20 are all disposed in the receiving cavity 131.
[0063] Understandably, the main body 10 includes a connecting portion 13 and a main body 12. The main body 12 is rotatably mounted on the connecting portion 13 and is perpendicular to the connecting portion 13. This perpendicular structural design of the main body 12 and the connecting portion 13 helps improve the stability of the device. This reduces structural offset or tilting, enhances the stability of the faucet 100, and also reduces flow resistance, thereby improving water flow efficiency. It also facilitates the rotation of the faucet 100.
[0064] Understandably, the aforementioned connection part 13 has a receiving cavity 131, in which a communication unit 60, a first acquisition unit 31, a second acquisition unit 32, and a controller 50 are disposed. The communication unit 60 can be electrically connected to the first acquisition unit 31 and the second acquisition unit 32, while the controller 50 can be wirelessly connected to the communication unit 60. Data is transmitted from the communication unit 60 to the controller 50 via wireless signals. The controller 50 can use related protocols or modules such as Bluetooth and WiFi for signal transmission.
[0065] Please see Figure 7 In some embodiments, the main body 12 is provided with an installation area 121, and the display module 40 is disposed in the installation area 121.
[0066] Understandably, the main body 12 is the water outlet part of the faucet, which is rotatably mounted on the connecting part 13. An installation area 121 is provided on the side of the main body 12 away from the connecting part 13. The installation area 121 is recessed into the main body 12 and is used to install the display module 40. The installation area 121 is provided to facilitate the installation of the display module 40 and to make it easy for the user to observe and adjust the relevant parameters after the display module 40 is installed in the installation area 121.
[0067] Please see Figure 8 In some embodiments, the body 10 further includes: a regulating water passage 70 and a control valve 80;
[0068] The control valve 80 is connected to the mineralization water passage 11 and the regulating water passage 70 respectively, and the control valve 80 is used to control the water inflow of the mineralization water passage 11 and the regulating water passage 70.
[0069] As is understandable, the control valve 80 is connected to the mineralization water circuit 11 and the regulating water circuit 70. Therefore, the control valve 80 can achieve the purpose of water flow regulation by controlling the water flow of the mineralization water circuit 11 and the regulating water circuit 70. By adjusting the water flow of different water circuits, the water flow in the mineralization water circuit 11 and the regulating water circuit 70 is mixed before the output faucet 100, thus achieving the regulation of the pH value of the water flow.
[0070] In some embodiments, the control valve 80 is connected to the controller 50, and the controller 50 can control the control valve 80 to adjust the water flow in the water path 70 and control the water flow to meet the user's needs. The first acquisition unit 31 and the second acquisition unit 32 can cooperate with the control valve 80 and the controller 50 to make the water flow output by the faucet 100 meet the user's expectations or meet the drinking water standards.
[0071] Specifically, both the first acquisition unit 31 and the second acquisition unit 32 can detect the pH value of the current output water and input water of the main body 10. When the main body 10 detects that the pH value of the current output water flow is low or high, it can adjust the water flow rate in the mineralization water path 11 and the water flow rate in the regulating water path 70 through the control valve 80. For example, when the pH value of the output water flow is high, the water flow rate in the mineralization water path 11 can be reduced and the water flow rate in the regulating water path 70 can be increased to lower the pH value. When the pH value of the output water flow is low, the water flow rate in the mineralization water path 11 can be increased and the water flow rate in the regulating water path 70 can be decreased to increase the pH value.
[0072] The first detection module can detect the pH value or TDS value in the inlet water circuit. The second detection module is set in the outlet water circuit, which can detect the pH value in the outlet water circuit or the TDS value in the inlet water circuit. This allows for the detection of the current water quality of the inlet and outlet water in the faucet 100. By obtaining the TDS difference or pH difference between the inlet and outlet water circuits, the control valve 80 can adjust the water flow input to the mineralization water circuit 11 and the water flow input to the regulating water circuit 70 based on the real-time TDS difference or pH difference, so that the output water flow can meet the user's water demand.
[0073] Please see Figure 9 This utility model also provides a mineral spring mineralization water purification device 200, the water purification device comprising:
[0074] The water purifier 210 and the faucet 100 are connected to the water purifier 210.
[0075] Understandably, the aforementioned mineral water purification equipment 200 includes a water purifier 210 and a faucet 100. The water purifier 210 is used to purify municipal water supply. The purified water flows into the faucet 100, which can regulate the water flow of the mineral water path 11 and the regulating water path 70 through the control valve 80. By adjusting the water flow of different water paths, the water flows in the mineral water path 11 and the regulating water path 70 are mixed before being output to the faucet 100, thus achieving the output of water to meet different needs.
[0076] Please see Figure 9 In some embodiments, the mineral water purification equipment 200 includes: a mineralization filter element 220 and a water purification filter element 230;
[0077] The mineralization filter element 220 is connected in series with the water purification filter element 230, and the mineralization filter element 220 is connected to the mineralization water passage 11 and supplies water to the mineralization water passage 11.
[0078] Understandably, the water purifier 210 includes a mineralizing filter element 220 and a water purification filter element 230. The water purification filter element 230 is connected to the mineralizing filter element 220. After the water is purified by the purification filter element, it flows out and enters the mineralizing filter element 220. The mineralizing filter element 220 performs preliminary mineralization on the water and then outputs it to the faucet 100.
