[0025] The technical solution of this utility model will be further described below with reference to the embodiments and accompanying drawings.
[0026] Example
[0027] Please see Figure 1 This utility model discloses a water purifier, which includes a main body and a water system for instant water dispensing, the latter being mounted on the main body. The instant water dispensing system includes a filtration module 1 and a storage module 2. The storage module 2 includes a water reservoir 21 and a pump 22. The inlet of the water reservoir 21 is detachably connected to the outlet of the filtration module 1, and the outlet of the water reservoir 21 is detachably connected to the inlet of the pump 22. With this design, the detachable water reservoir 21 on the storage module 2 allows for pre-storage of purified water produced by the filtration module 1. Users can then directly remove the reservoir 21 to dispense water, eliminating waiting time and improving the user experience.
[0028] Furthermore, to facilitate the detection of the water level in the water storage cup 21 for determining whether water production is needed, the water storage cup 21 is equipped with a first level gauge 23 for detecting the minimum preset liquid level and a second level gauge 24 for detecting the maximum preset liquid level. With this design, when the first level gauge 23 in the water storage cup 21 detects a liquid level below the minimum preset level, the water filtration module 1 is activated to produce water, increasing the water storage capacity of the water storage cup 21. When the second level gauge 24 in the water storage cup 21 detects a liquid level above the maximum preset level, i.e., when the cup is full, the water filtration module 1 stops producing water to prevent excessive water production.
[0029] In some embodiments, to ensure that the water filtration module 1 produces drinking water, the water filtration module 1 includes a pre-filter 11, a booster pump 12, an RO reverse osmosis filter 13, and a post-filter 14. The pre-filter 11, booster pump 12, RO reverse osmosis filter 13, and post-filter 14 are connected sequentially, and the inlet of the water storage cup 21 is detachably connected to the pure water outlet of the post-filter 14. With this design, tap water entering the water purifier first undergoes coarse filtration through the pre-filter 11, then is pumped to the RO reverse osmosis filter 13 for further filtration under the action of the booster pump 12, and finally enters the post-filter 14 for further filtration, ultimately discharging pure water suitable for drinking.
[0030] The pre-filter 11 and post-filter 14 are integrally formed, thereby simplifying the structure of the water filtration module 1. It is understood that in other optional embodiments, the pre-filter 11 and post-filter 14 can also be designed to be set independently, and this is not limited here.
[0031] Furthermore, to control the water inlet of the filtration water circuit module 1, the filtration water circuit module 1 also includes an inlet solenoid valve 15. The inlet of the inlet solenoid valve 15 is connected to the outlet of the pre-filter element 11, and the outlet of the inlet solenoid valve 15 is connected to the inlet of the booster pump 12. With this configuration, when the user needs to drink water, the inlet solenoid valve 15 opens, and the booster pump 12 can pump water; when the user does not need to drink water, the inlet solenoid valve 15 closes, and the booster pump 12 cannot pump water.
[0032] Furthermore, considering the possibility of excess purified water filtered by the RO reverse osmosis filter 13 exceeding user demand, and to prevent the purified water from accumulating at the outlet of the RO reverse osmosis filter 13, the filtration module 1 also includes a pressure relief valve 16. The inlet of the pressure relief valve 16 is connected to the purified water outlet of the RO reverse osmosis filter 13, and the outlet of the pressure relief valve 16 is connected to the inlet of the booster pump 12. With this design, the pressure relief valve 16 can return the excess purified water discharged from the RO reverse osmosis filter 13 when hot water is drawn to the inlet of the booster pump 12, so that it can be pumped back to the RO reverse osmosis filter 13 for further filtration the next time the user draws water.
[0033] Furthermore, considering that the RO reverse osmosis filter cartridge 13 will also generate wastewater, the filtration water circuit module 1 also includes a wastewater solenoid valve 17, the inlet of which is connected to the wastewater outlet of the RO reverse osmosis filter cartridge 13. With this design, the concentrated water generated by the RO reverse osmosis filter cartridge 13 can be discharged through the wastewater solenoid valve 17.
[0034] Furthermore, in order to prevent the pure water discharged from the RO reverse osmosis filter element 13 from flowing back and affecting the user's use during the water production process, the water filtration module 1 also includes a check valve 18, which is located at the outlet of the RO reverse osmosis filter element 13 to prevent the pure water discharged from the RO reverse osmosis filter element 13 from flowing back.
[0035] In some embodiments, in order to measure the concentration of inorganic and organic substances dissolved in the raw water, the water filtration module 1 further includes a raw water TDS meter 19, which is located at the outlet of the pre-filter cartridge 11.
[0036] Similarly, in order to measure the concentration of inorganic and organic substances dissolved in pure water, the water filtration module 1 also includes a pure water TDS meter 20, which is located at the outlet of the post-filter cartridge 14.
[0037] In some embodiments, considering the user's need for hot water, the water system that can provide hot water instantly also includes a heating water module 3. The heating water module 3 includes a heating element 31, and the inlet of the heating element 31 is connected to the outlet of the water pump 22. With this design, when the user needs hot water, the water pump 22 can also pump pure water from the storage cup 21 to the heating element 31 for heating, thereby meeting the user's need for hot water.
[0038] Furthermore, in order to detect the inlet and outlet water temperatures of the heating element 31 in a timely manner, the heating water circuit module 3 also includes an inlet NTC 32 and an outlet NTC 33. The inlet NTC 32 is located at the inlet of the heating element 31 and is used to detect the inlet water temperature. The outlet NTC 33 is located at the outlet of the heating element 31 and is used to detect the temperature of the heated water.
[0039] This utility model provides a water purifier that features an instant water supply system comprising a filtration module 1 and a storage module 2. The storage module 2 includes a water reservoir 21 and a pump 22. The inlet of the water reservoir 21 is detachably connected to the outlet of the filtration module 1, and the outlet of the water reservoir 21 is detachably connected to the inlet of the pump 22. This design allows for the pre-storage of purified water produced by the filtration module 1 into the reservoir 21, enabling users to directly access water without waiting, thus saving time and improving the user experience. Furthermore, the inclusion of a heating element 31 allows the pump 22 to pump purified water from the reservoir 21 to the heating element for heating, thus meeting the user's need for hot water.
[0040] The above provides a detailed description of a water system capable of instant water intake and a water purifier having the same, as disclosed in the embodiments of this utility model. This article uses specific examples to illustrate the principle and implementation of this utility model. The description of the above embodiments is only for the purpose of helping to understand the water system capable of instant water intake and the water purifier having the same, as well as its core concept. At the same time, for those skilled in the art, there will be changes in the specific implementation and application scope based on the concept of this utility model. Therefore, the content of this specification should not be construed as a limitation of this utility model.
