[0034] The embodiments of the present application are described below in detail, and examples of the embodiments are shown in the drawings, wherein the same or similar notations represent the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below by reference to the drawings are exemplary only, and are used to explain the present application, and cannot be understood as a limitation of the present application.
[0035] As shown in Figure 1 and Figure 2 The present embodiment first provides a water treatment device, which comprises a water treatment assembly 1, a communication valve 2 and at least one bypass pipe 3. The water treatment assembly 1 comprises at least two treatment tanks, which can be soft water tanks with resin filter cartridges or purification tanks with RO membrane reverse osmosis filter cartridges, and the present embodiment does not make specific limitations.
[0036] One end of the treatment tank is provided with a protruding portion 11, and the treatment tank is provided with a water inlet 12 and a water outlet 13 which communicate with the internal accommodating cavity. The communication valve 2 is used for communication between the external water supply end, the external water use end and the water treatment assembly 1. One bypass pipe 3 is arranged between the adjacent two treatment tanks. Along the flow direction of raw water, the two ends of the bypass pipe 3 are connected to the water outlet 13 of one of the treatment tanks and the water inlet 12 of the other treatment tank, respectively, to form a series communication of the at least two treatment tanks. Through the arrangement of the bypass pipe 3, the water flows through the plurality of treatment tanks in sequence to form a series water path, without flowing through the communication valve 2, which is beneficial to simplify the internal water path structure of the communication valve 2 and reduce the space volume of the communication valve 2. Moreover, the cross-sectional size of the protruding portion 11 is smaller than that of the treatment tank, and the side of the protruding portion 11 forms an accommodating space 14, and at least part of the bypass pipe 3 and / or at least part of the communication valve 2 are located in the accommodating space 14. The water treatment device of the present embodiment ingeniously utilizes the accommodating space 14 formed by the smaller size of the protruding portion 11 compared with the treatment tank to accommodate part of the structure of the bypass pipe 3 and the communication valve 2, reduces the additional internal space volume of the water treatment device occupied by the bypass pipe 3 and the communication valve 2, and forms a relatively reasonable space layout of the water treatment assembly 1, the communication valve 2 and the bypass pipe 3, so that the internal structure of the water treatment device is relatively compact, and the space requirement of the narrow use environment is met.
[0037] The protruding portion 11 can be formed by extending part of the top end of the treatment tank outward along the axial direction of the treatment tank, or the top end of the treatment tank is recessed inward along the axial direction of the treatment tank to form the protruding portion 11 from the remaining part of the top end. The present embodiment does not make specific limitations.
[0038] Along the flow direction of the raw water, the treatment tank has a water inlet channel and a water outlet channel. The raw water enters the treatment tank through the water inlet channel, and flows out through the water outlet channel after being treated by the filter element. The water outlet channel is located at the center of the accommodation cavity, and the water inlet channel is arranged around the periphery of the water outlet channel. The water inlet 12 is connected to the water inlet channel, and the water outlet 13 is connected to the water outlet channel. The protruding portion 11 is arranged eccentrically along the axial direction of the treatment tank. The projection of the protruding portion 11 along the axial direction of the treatment tank covers the water inlet channel and the water outlet channel. The water inlet 12 and / or the water outlet 13 are arranged on the outer side wall of the protruding portion 11. The protruding portion 11 arranged eccentrically along the axial direction of the treatment tank can better guide the water flow in and out. When the water outlet 13 is arranged on the outer side wall of the protruding portion 11, it can directly connect to the water outlet channel at the center, and the water outlet flow will not interfere with the water inlet flow. Moreover, when the water inlet 12 and the water outlet 13 arranged on the outer side wall of the protruding portion 11 are connected to the bypass pipe 3 through the joint, the joint and the bypass pipe 3 are located in the accommodation space 14 beside the protruding portion 11, which does not increase the size of the treatment tank in the height direction, and is beneficial to the compactness and miniaturization of the water treatment device.
[0039] It should be noted that the water outlet channel is located at the center of the accommodation cavity. Here, the center does not refer to the center of the treatment tank, but to the central region extending along the axial direction in the accommodation cavity.
[0040] For example, in an embodiment, the water inlet 12 and the water outlet 13 are both arranged on the outer side wall of the protruding portion 11. In adjacent two treatment tanks, along the flow direction of the raw water, the water outlet 13 of the treatment tank located upstream is oriented in the same direction as the water inlet 12 of the treatment tank located downstream. In this way, the bypass pipe 3 is in the shape of U to connect the water inlet 12 and the water outlet 13 with the same opening direction. Along the flow direction of the raw water, the U-shaped bypass pipe 3 has an inlet port 31 and an outlet port 32. The inlet port 31 is used to connect the water outlet 13 of the protruding portion 11 of the upstream treatment tank, and the outlet port 32 is used to connect the water inlet 12 of the protruding portion 11 of the downstream treatment tank.
[0041] In other embodiments, the water outlet 13 of the treatment tank located upstream and the water inlet 12 of the treatment tank located downstream can also be arranged at an angle. The extension direction of the bypass pipe 3 can be changed to adapt to the orientation of the water outlet 13 and the water inlet 12. As shown in the figure, the water outlet 13 of the treatment tank located upstream and the water inlet 12 of the treatment tank located downstream are arranged at an angle of 90°. At this time, the bypass pipe 3 is in the shape of L. Figure 6
[0042] Of course, in order to adapt to the orientation of the water outlet 13 and the water inlet 12, in other embodiments, the bypass pipe 3 can also be in the shape of Z, or be a straight pipe, etc. The present embodiment does not make specific limitations.
[0043] To realize the connection between the communicating valve 2 and the water treatment assembly 1 to form the circulating water path, the communicating valve 2 comprises a first extension pipe 21 with a first communicating port 211 and a second extension pipe 22 with a second communicating port 221, both of which are used to connect the water treatment assembly 1, and the communicating valve 2 is arranged above the treatment tank so that the first extension pipe 21 and the second extension pipe 22 extend to the accommodation space 14, and the bypass pipe 3 is located beside the protruding part 11 to be located in the accommodation space 14. In this way, the accommodation space 14 has better accommodation, and can accommodate part of the structure of the communicating valve 2 and part of the structure of the bypass pipe 3 at the same time.
[0044] Figure 2 The structure of the water treatment device with two treatment tanks and one bypass pipe 3 is shown in the middle. When the number of treatment tanks of the water treatment device is greater than two, the number of bypass pipes 3 increases accordingly. For example, the water treatment device has three treatment tanks, and accordingly, two bypass pipes 3 are arranged, that is, one bypass pipe 3 is arranged between every two adjacent treatment tanks. In other embodiments, the number of treatment tanks and bypass pipes 3 of the water treatment device can be increased or decreased according to the demand for purification capacity, and the present embodiment does not limit it.
[0045] Next, the layout mode of the water treatment assembly 1, the communicating valve 2 and the bypass pipe 3 will be described with specific embodiments.
[0046] Embodiment one
[0047] As shown in Figures 3 to 5 In this embodiment, the water treatment assembly 1 comprises two series-connected treatment tanks and one bypass pipe 3. Both of the two treatment tanks are soft water tanks, and along the flow direction of raw water, the two series-connected treatment tanks form a first treatment tank 15 and a second treatment tank 16 in sequence. The first treatment tank 15 is provided with a communicating water inlet 151 for communicating with the first communicating port 211 of the communicating valve 2, and the second treatment tank 16 is provided with a communicating water outlet 161 for communicating with the second communicating port 221 of the communicating valve 2, so as to form a circulating water path. The communicating water inlet 151 and the communicating water outlet 161 are towards the accommodation space 14, which is convenient for arranging the communicating valve 2.
[0048] The first treatment tank 15 and the second treatment tank 16 each have a protruding part 11, which can increase the volume of the accommodation cavity, store more water, and improve the softening capacity of the water treatment device. The communication water inlet 151 is arranged at the end of the first treatment tank 15 or the corresponding protruding part 11, and the first extension pipe 21 is a straight pipe or an L-shaped pipe to adapt to the direction of the communication water inlet 151. The communication water outlet 161 is arranged at the end of the second treatment tank 16 or the corresponding protruding part 11, and the second extension pipe 22 is a straight pipe or an L-shaped pipe to adapt to the direction of the communication water outlet 161. That is, when the communication water inlet 151 is arranged at the end of the first treatment tank 15, the first extension pipe 21 is a straight pipe; when the communication water inlet 151 is arranged at the outer side wall of the corresponding protruding part 11, the first extension pipe 21 is an L-shaped pipe to adapt to the direction of the communication water inlet 151. Similarly, when the communication water outlet 161 is arranged at the end of the second treatment tank 16, the second extension pipe 22 is a straight pipe; when the communication water outlet 161 is arranged at the outer side wall of the corresponding protruding part 11, the second extension pipe 22 is an L-shaped pipe to adapt to the direction of the communication water outlet 161.
[0049] As shown in Figure 4 , the protruding part 11 has a partition 111 to form a first channel 112 and a second channel 113, which are isolated from each other, the first channel 112 is connected to the water inlet channel, and the second channel 113 is connected to the water outlet channel. When the water inlet 12 and the water outlet 13 are arranged at the outer side wall of the protruding part 11, the flow direction of the raw water at the water inlet 12 and the water outlet 13 is horizontal, which is different from the extension direction of the water inlet channel and the water outlet channel of the vertically arranged treatment tank. Therefore, the first channel 112 can guide the flow direction of the water entering the water inlet channel through the water inlet 12, and the second channel 113 can guide the flow direction of the water entering the water outlet 13 through the water outlet channel, thereby improving the flowability of the water.
[0050] The cross section of the protruding part 11 is fan-shaped, the protruding part 11 has two radially outer side walls 114 arranged at an angle, and an arc-shaped outer side wall 115 connected to the two radially outer side walls 114, the water inlet 12 and the water outlet 13 are arranged at the radially outer side wall 114. The radially outer side wall 114 is convenient for the arrangement of the joint, and the arc-shaped outer side wall 115 can increase the volume of the accommodation cavity as much as possible.
[0051] As shown in Figure 5 , the two protruding parts 11 adjacent to each other are located on the same side of the axis connecting line of the two treatment tanks. Further, the arc-shaped outer side walls 115 of the two fan shapes are oppositely arranged to further optimize the space layout.
[0052] Exemplarily, as shown in Figure 2As shown, the connecting inlet 151 is located at the end of the first treatment tank 15, at the edge of the end, and is directly connected to the water inlet channel of the first treatment tank 15, with the water flow direction being the same, resulting in better water flow. The connecting outlet 161 is located on a radially outer side wall 114 of the protrusion 11 of the second treatment tank 16, and faces the receiving space 14. To accommodate the opening directions of the connecting inlet 151 and the connecting outlet 161, the first extension pipe 21 is a straight pipe, and the second extension pipe 22 is an L-shaped bend.
[0053] The outlet 13 is located on one radially outer side wall 114 of the protrusion 11 of the first treatment tank 15, and the inlet 12 is located on the other radially outer side wall 114 of the protrusion 11 of the second treatment tank 16, with the outlet 13 and inlet 12 facing the same direction. Thus, the first extension pipe 21 and the second extension pipe 22 are arranged in the partial accommodating space 14 between the two protrusions 11, and the bypass pipe 3 is arranged in the partial accommodating space 14 formed on the other side of the axis connecting the two protrusions 11, reducing the possibility of interference between the bypass pipe 3 and the first extension pipe 21 and the second extension pipe 22. Furthermore, the bypass pipe 3, arranged on the side, is easy to install, inspect, and replace, and will not affect the first treatment tank 15, the second treatment tank 16, or the connecting valve 2. Quick-connect fittings are used between the bypass pipe 3 and the outlet 13 and inlet 12, further improving the convenience of maintenance and replacement. The structure of the quick-connect fittings can be designed according to existing technology, which is not the focus of this application and will not be described in detail here.
[0054] To minimize the distance between the first treatment tank 15 and the second treatment tank 16, the first extension pipe 21 and the second extension pipe 22 are staggered along the axis connecting the first treatment tank 15 and the second treatment tank 16. In this embodiment, the staggered arrangement of the first extension pipe 21 and the second extension pipe 22 allows the first treatment tank 15 and the second treatment tank 16 to be closer together, which helps to reduce the size of the water treatment device along the axis connecting the first treatment tank 15 and the second treatment tank 16.
[0055] Example 2
[0056] In this embodiment, the water treatment component 1 has two series-connected treatment tanks and a bypass pipe 3, identical to those in Embodiment 1. Both treatment tanks are soft water tanks, and along the direction of raw water flow, the two series-connected treatment tanks sequentially form a first treatment tank 15 and a second treatment tank 16. The remaining identical structures will not be described in detail in this embodiment.
[0057] like Figure 6 As shown, in this embodiment, the first processing tank 15 and the second processing tank 16 have two protrusions 11 located on both sides of the axis connecting line and arranged opposite to each other.
[0058] When the two protrusions 11 are both fan-shaped, the central angles of the two fan shapes are arranged opposite to each other, and the bypass pipe 3 is L-shaped to connect the water inlet 12 and the water outlet 13. The communication water inlet 151 is arranged on the protrusion 11 of the first treatment tank 15, and the communication water outlet 161 is arranged on the protrusion 11 of the second treatment tank 16. The first extension pipe 21 and the second extension pipe 22 are both L-shaped to adapt to the orientations of the communication water inlet 151 and the communication water outlet 161 respectively. In this way, the processing technology of the water treatment device can be simplified. The protrusion 11 of the first treatment tank 15 has two openings, and the protrusion 11 of the second treatment tank 16 also has two openings. The same injection mold can be used for processing, and the same joint structure of the bypass pipe 3 and the communication valve 2 can be used.
[0059] It should be noted that, in Figure 6 , the protrusion 11 of the second treatment tank 16 is located in the second quadrant of one end surface of the second treatment tank 16, and the protrusion 11 of the first treatment tank 15 is located in the fourth quadrant of one end surface of the first treatment tank 15. In other embodiments, the protrusion 11 of the second treatment tank 16 can also be located in the third quadrant of one end surface of the second treatment tank 16, and the protrusion 11 of the first treatment tank 15 can be located in the first quadrant of one end surface of the first treatment tank 15.

[0063] To further improve the flushing effect, the flow inlet 23 can selectively communicate with the second communication port 221, and when the flow inlet 23 communicates with the second communication port 221, the first communication port 211 selectively communicates with the blowdown port 25 to form a reverse flushing mode. In the reverse flushing mode, the raw water provided by the external water supply end flows into the water treatment assembly 1 through the communication valve 2, and since the second communication port 221 communicates with the communication water outlet 161 of the second treatment tank 16, the flow direction of the raw water in the second treatment tank 16 and the first treatment tank 15 is opposite to that in the forward flushing mode, thereby forming a more thorough flushing of the filter element. The raw water sequentially performs reverse flushing on the filter elements in the second treatment tank 16 and the first treatment tank 15, and the waste water formed is discharged through the blowdown port 25.
[0064] The resin filter element in the treatment tank will be saturated after a long time of use, and the communication valve 2 further has a salt suction and water supply port 26. The salt suction and water supply port 26 is used to inject brine into the communication valve 2, the second communication port 221 can selectively simultaneously communicate with the flow inlet 23 and the salt suction and water supply port 26, and when the second communication port 221 simultaneously communicates with the flow inlet 23 and the salt suction and water supply port 26, the first communication port 211 selectively communicates with the blowdown port 25 to form a regeneration mode. In the regeneration mode, the raw water provided by the external water supply end and the brine provided by the salt suction and water supply port 26 are mixed and sequentially flow through the second treatment tank 16 and the first treatment tank 15 to regenerate the resin filter element. The mixed liquid soaks the resin filter element, so that sodium ions reoccupy the exchange position, and the resin filter element restores the softening function.
[0065] To provide brine used in the regeneration mode, the water treatment device further includes a salt supplement tank (not shown in the figure). The salt supplement tank has a brine cavity for containing brine, and in the initial state, the salt supplement tank contains solid salt, which occupies less space than brine. The brine cavity communicates with the salt suction and water supply port 26, the salt supplement tank is connected to the communication valve 2, and the salt suction and water supply port 26 can selectively communicate with the flow inlet 23 to form a water supply mode. The water supply mode is arranged before the regeneration mode. In the water supply mode, the raw water provided by the external water supply end flows through the communication valve 2 into the salt supplement tank to dissolve the solid salt into brine, which is used in the subsequent regeneration mode.
[0066] The above-mentioned structure of the communication valve 2, in which the second communication port 221 selectively communicates with the flow outlet 24 or the blowdown port 25, the flow inlet 23 selectively communicates with the second communication port 221 or the first communication port 211, the first communication port 211 selectively communicates with the blowdown port 25 and the flow outlet 24, and the salt suction and water supply port 26 selectively communicates with the second communication port 221 and the flow inlet 23, can be arranged according to the prior art, which is not the focus of the present application, and will not be described here.
[0067] Obviously, the above embodiments of the present application are merely examples for clearly illustrating the present application, and are not intended to limit the implementation modes of the present application. For those skilled in the art, various obvious changes, re-adjustments and replacements can be made without departing from the protection scope of the present application. Here, it is not necessary and also impossible to enumerate all the implementation modes. Any modification, equivalent replacement and improvement made within the spirit and principle of the present application shall be included in the protection scope of the present application claim.
