Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of water leakage detection technology, and in particular to a water leakage detection structure for a pure water machine. Background Technology

[0002] A reverse osmosis (RO) water purifier is a specialized water purification device for producing pure water. Through multi-stage filters and specific treatment technologies, it removes impurities, odors, bacteria, and other substances from water to obtain high-quality pure water. It primarily removes impurities through physical or chemical methods. A leak detection system in a RO water purifier is a crucial component in ensuring safe operation, preventing water loss, and avoiding potential damage.

[0003] However, the traditional water purifier's leak detection structure is somewhat simple. When in use, the leak detection range is relatively large, and the detection accuracy may not be very high. It cannot accurately detect the leak point, which may lead to misjudgment of leak alarms and waste of human resources.

[0004] For example, the traditional water purifier's leak detection structure usually sets a sensor at a certain threshold at the water outlet. Once the water source is detected, it will start an alarm and cut off the power. However, the water volume at the outlet includes water that is spilled when the water purifier is used. This is an unavoidable and normal situation and is not a leak caused by a malfunction of the water purifier. Hasty alarms will not only lead to staff fatigue, but also easily damage the equipment. Utility Model Content

[0005] This utility model discloses a leakage detection structure for a pure water machine, aiming to solve the technical problem that the traditional leakage detection structure of pure water machines is somewhat simple in its lifting and lowering, and when in use, the leakage detection range is relatively large, the detection accuracy may not be very high, and it is not able to accurately detect the leakage point, which may lead to misjudgment of leakage alarm and waste of human resources.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0007] A leakage detection structure for a water purifier includes a housing and a square groove formed on one outer wall of the housing. A first spring plate and a second spring plate are disposed on the top inner wall of the square groove. The structure also includes:

[0008] Push-pull mechanism: The push-pull mechanism includes a first base frame and a second base frame disposed inside the square groove. A partition is disposed on the top outer wall of the first base frame and the second base frame. A first top frame is slidably connected between the first base frame and the partition, and a second top frame is slidably connected between the second base frame and the partition. The first top frame is connected to the top outer wall of the square groove through a first spring plate, and the second top frame is connected to the top outer wall of the square groove through a second spring plate. Two springs are connected between the first top frame and the inner wall of the square groove, and between the second top frame and one side inner wall of the square groove.

[0009] Lifting mechanism: The lifting mechanism is located inside the housing.

[0010] In this solution, by setting a first top frame and a second top frame between the first base frame and the second base frame, along with a first spring plate, a second spring plate, and four springs, water spilled during water collection can be controlled on the first top frame and the second top frame. When no water is being collected, the round cups set on the top of the first base frame and the second base frame are directly below the two water outlets. When water droplets fall into the round cups and reach the threshold of the two sensors, the two alarms will be triggered, the alarm will sound, and the power will be cut off. This can accurately detect the specific location of the leak, provide timely warnings, and avoid misjudgments.

[0011] In a preferred embodiment, the two round cups are movably positioned relative to both the first and second base frames, and each of the two round cups has two handles on its top.

[0012] The two round cups, which are placed inside the first and second base frames, can be easily lifted and disassembled using two handles, making it convenient to pour out water and easy to clean.

[0013] In a preferred embodiment, the lifting mechanism includes a sliding groove formed on the inner wall of the opposite side of the square groove. A slider is provided on the outer wall of one side of both the first base frame and the second base frame. The two sliders cooperate with the two sliding grooves. An electric telescopic rod is also provided inside the two sliding grooves. The piston ends of the two electric telescopic rods are respectively connected to the two sliders. A telescopic plate is provided inside both the first spring plate and the second spring plate. The two telescopic plates cooperate with the two electric telescopic rods.

[0014] By using the sliding grooves and electric telescopic rods on both sides of the square groove, along with the sliders on both sides of the first and second base frames, and the telescopic plates inside the first and second spring plates connected to the top, the up-and-down movement of the entire push-pull mechanism can be adjusted by the electric telescopic rods. This provides an adjustable water-receiving space to accommodate water containers of different heights, thus improving the user experience.

[0015] As described above, a water purifier leakage detection structure includes a housing and a square groove formed on one outer wall of the housing. A first spring plate and a second spring plate are provided on the top inner wall of the square groove. The structure also includes: a push-pull mechanism: the push-pull mechanism includes a first base frame and a second base frame disposed inside the square groove. A partition is provided on the top outer wall of the first base frame and the second base frame. A first top frame is slidably connected between the first base frame and the partition, and a second top frame is slidably connected between the second base frame and the partition. The first top frame is connected to the top outer wall of the square groove via the first spring plate, and the second top frame is connected to the top outer wall of the square groove via the second spring plate. Two springs are connected between the first top frame and the inner wall of the square groove, and between the second top frame and one inner wall of the square groove. A lifting mechanism: the lifting mechanism is disposed inside the housing. The water purifier leakage detection structure provided by this utility model has the technical effect of adding a push-pull mechanism, achieving accurate detection, and reducing losses due to misjudgment.

[0022] The technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, and not all embodiments. The components of the embodiments of this application described and marked in the accompanying drawings can be arranged and designed in various different configurations. Therefore, the following detailed description of the embodiments of this application provided in the accompanying drawings is not intended to limit the scope of the claimed application, but merely represents selected embodiments of this application. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this application without inventive effort are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0023] The leakage detection structure for a pure water machine disclosed in this utility model is mainly used in traditional pure water machine leakage detection structures. The structure of these structures is somewhat simple, and when in use, the leakage detection range is relatively large, but the detection accuracy may not be very high. It is not possible to accurately detect the leakage point, which may lead to misjudgment of leakage alarms and waste of human resources.

[0024] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 A water purifier leakage detection structure includes a housing 1 and a square groove formed on one side outer wall of the housing 1. A first spring plate 5 and a second spring plate 6 are provided on the top inner wall of the square groove. The structure also includes: a push-pull mechanism: the push-pull mechanism includes a first base frame 3 and a second base frame 4 disposed inside the square groove. A partition 9 is provided on the top outer wall of the first base frame 3 and the partition 9. A first top frame 7 is slidably connected between the first base frame 3 and the partition 9. A second top frame 8 is slidably connected between the second base frame 4 and the partition 9. The first top frame 7 is connected to the top outer wall of the square groove through the first spring plate 5. The second top frame 8 is connected to the top outer wall of the square groove through the second spring plate 6. Two springs 12 are connected between the first top frame 7 and the inner wall of the square groove, and between the second top frame 8 and one side inner wall of the square groove. A lifting mechanism: the lifting mechanism is disposed inside the housing 1.

[0025] The first base frame 3 and the second base frame 4 are each provided with a round cup 15 on their top outer wall. The two round cups 15 are each provided with a sensor 16 inside. The first base frame 3 and the second base frame 4 are each provided with an alarm 10 on one side outer wall. The two sensors 16 and the two alarms 10 are used in conjunction.

[0026] The square groove has two water outlets 11 on its top inner wall, which are used in conjunction with the first spring plate 5 and the second spring plate 6.

[0027] Specifically, in this solution, by setting the first top frame 7 and the second top frame 8 between the first base frame 3 and the second base frame 4, and in conjunction with the first spring plate 5, the second spring plate 6, and four springs 12, the water that leaks when water is being collected can be controlled on the first top frame 7 and the second top frame 8. When no water is being collected, the round cup 15 set on the top of the first base frame 3 and the second base frame 4 is directly below the two water outlets 11. When water droplets fall into the round cup 15 and reach the threshold of the two sensors 16, the two alarms 10 will be triggered, the alarm will start, and the power will be cut off. This can accurately detect the specific location of the leak, provide timely warnings, and avoid misjudgment.

[0028] In actual use, the two water outlets 11 are set to one for pure water and the other for ultrapure water.

[0029] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 5 In a preferred embodiment, the two round cups 15 are movably placed between the first base frame 3 and the second base frame 4, and the top of each of the two round cups 15 is provided with two handles 17.

[0030] Specifically, the two round cups 15, which are placed inside the first base frame 3 and the second base frame 4, can be easily picked up and disassembled by means of two handles 17, which not only makes it convenient to pour out water, but also makes it easy to clean.

[0031] Both the first top frame 7 and the second top frame 8 have equally spaced long slots on their top outer walls.

[0032] Specifically, by creating long grooves evenly distributed on the first top frame 7 and the second top frame 8, spilled water can be collected and stored inside the first top frame 7 and the second top frame 8 when water is collected. The long grooves not only provide support points for the water collection container, but also prevent water droplets from splashing everywhere.

[0033] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 4 In a preferred embodiment, the lifting mechanism includes a sliding groove formed on the inner wall of the opposite side of the square groove. A slider is provided on the outer wall of one side of the first base frame 3 and the second base frame 4. The two sliders are used in conjunction with the two sliding grooves. An electric telescopic rod 13 is also provided inside the two sliding grooves. The piston ends of the two electric telescopic rods 13 are respectively connected to the two sliders. A telescopic plate 14 is provided inside the first spring plate 5 and the second spring plate 6. The two telescopic plates 14 are used in conjunction with the two electric telescopic rods 13.

[0034] For example, pure water machines are generally used in laboratories or various precision experimental sites. The water containers used are usually not fixed and are quite diverse. Traditional pure water machines generally have a fixed water receiving area, which may not be very convenient and not suitable for specific laboratory use scenarios.

[0035] Specifically, by using the sliding grooves and electric telescopic rods 13 on both sides of the square groove, along with the sliders on both sides of the first base frame 3 and the second base frame 4, and the telescopic plates 14 inside the first spring plate 5 and the second spring plate 6 connected to the top, the up and down movement of the entire push-pull mechanism can be adjusted by the electric telescopic rods 13, providing an adjustable water receiving space to accommodate water containers of different heights and improving the user experience.

[0036] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 4 In a preferred embodiment, a control console 2 is provided on one outer wall of the housing 1.

[0037] Specifically, the operation of the water purifier can be controlled by the control panel 2 located on one side of the housing 1, and the lifting and lowering of the first base frame 3 and the second base frame 4 can be adjusted by the electric telescopic rod 13.

[0038] Working principle: When in use, the first spring plate 5 or the second spring plate 6 can be pressed inward to start collecting water. After collecting water, the first spring plate 5 or the second spring plate 6 can be released, and the first base frame 3 or the second base frame 4 will spring back outward, thus controlling the water that is spilled during collection onto the first top frame 7 and the second top frame 8. When no water is being collected, the round cup 15 set on the top of the first base frame 3 and the second base frame 4 is located directly below the two water outlets 11. When water droplets fall into the round cup 15 and reach the threshold of the two sensors 16, the two alarms 10 will be triggered, the alarm will start, and the power will be cut off.

[0039] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model, but the protection scope of this utility model is not limited thereto. The substitutions may be replacements of some structures, devices, or method steps, or they may be complete technical solutions. Equivalent substitutions or modifications made based on the technical solution and inventive concept of this utility model should all be covered within the protection scope of this utility model.
