[0029] The specific implementation of this technical solution will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0030]

Example 1

[0031] like Figure 1 As shown, a faucet includes a faucet pipe 20, a faucet switch 21, and a water flow power generation module. The faucet switch 21 is located at one end of the faucet pipe 20, and the water flow power generation module is located inside the faucet pipe 20. The faucet pipe 20 in this technical solution is the same as the faucet pipe 20 commonly found in daily life. The size of the water flow power generation module in this technical solution is adapted to the faucet pipe 20, and it can be directly placed inside the faucet pipe 20 for installation. Therefore, the water flow power generation module has high adaptability and can be installed in any faucet pipe 20 without increasing the volume of the faucet pipe 20.

[0032] like Figures 1-3As shown, a water flow power generation module includes a water flow power generation base and a digital display power generation module 12. The water flow power generation base is installed inside the faucet pipe 20 through an opening in the water inlet direction. The water flow power generation base is pushed forward a certain distance and then stopped. The digital display power generation module 12 is located on the other side of the faucet pipe 20, with its installation direction perpendicular to the water flow direction. The digital display power generation module 12 can be inserted into and snapped into the water flow power generation base. The water flow power generation base provides support for the digital display power generation module 12 and can also guide the water flow to the vicinity of the impeller 16 of the digital display power generation module 12 to improve power generation efficiency. After assembly, the water flow can be automatically detected, and the real-time temperature of the water flow can be displayed.

[0033] Furthermore, the digital display power generation module 12 includes a connector 13, a housing 14, a motor 15, an impeller 16, a circuit board 17, a display screen 18, and a temperature sensor 19. The connector 13 is cylindrical and has an internal accommodating space. The motor 15 and the temperature sensor 19 are installed inside the connector 13. The housing 14 is located on the upper part of the connector 13 and also has an internal accommodating space. The circuit board 17 and the display screen 18 are located inside the housing 14. The display screen 18 is connected to the motor 15 through the circuit board 17. The impeller 16 is located at one end of the motor 15. The impeller 16 passes through the housing 14 and enters the mounting cavity 2 of the water flow power generation base. The impeller 16 has several inclined blades, which can better capture water flow. One end of the temperature sensor 19 is placed in the mounting cavity 2 of the water flow power generation base, and the other end is connected to the circuit board 17. The temperature sensor 19 is used to obtain the real-time water temperature and transmit the water temperature information to the circuit board 17. When the water flows, it drives the impeller 16 to automatically generate electricity, which is used to power the display screen 18 to display the temperature.

[0034] like Figures 3-4 As shown, a water flow generator includes a mounting base 1 and a water outlet pipe 3. The mounting base 1 has a mounting cavity 2 in the middle for accommodating an impeller 16. The mounting cavity 1 has four water inlets 4 around its periphery. The water inlets 4 connect the water inlet end of the faucet pipe 20 to the mounting cavity 2. Water flows into the mounting cavity 2 through the water inlets 4 and then flows out through the water outlet pipe 3. During this process, the impeller 16 in the mounting cavity 2 can be driven to rotate. The rotation of the impeller 16 cooperates with the motor 15 to generate electricity.

[0035] Furthermore, the water inlet 4 is set perpendicular to the outer wall of the corresponding mounting base 1. The rear end of the water inlet 4 is connected to the guide arc surface 5. Part of the water entering the water inlet 4 contacts the blade surface, and part of it moves along the guide arc surface 5 to contact another blade surface. Ultimately, the water in the mounting cavity 2 flows in a vortex shape, increasing the degree of cooperation between the water flow and the blade surface, thereby improving the power generation efficiency.

[0036] Further, the installation base 1 also has an interaction groove 6 therein, which leads to the installation cavity 2. In actual use, the interaction groove 6 is filled with water flow, and the lower end of the temperature sensing probe 19 is arranged in the interaction groove 6, so as to sense the temperature of the water flow.

[0037] Further, the upper part of the installation base 1 has a sink groove, i.e. a connecting groove 7 matched with the connecting base 13, which are tightly matched and clamped, so as to facilitate the installation of the digital display power generation module 12.

[0038] Further, a sealing ring 8 is arranged between the water outlet pipeline 3 and the faucet pipeline 20, which is used to make the water flow from the water inlet part 4 into the installation cavity 2, so as to increase the self-power generation efficiency and effectively avoid the invalid water flow.

[0039] As shown in Figure 4 and 6 , the installation base 1 is formed with a water inlet pipeline 10 at the end side, and the water inlet pipeline 10 has a flow dividing plate 11 therein. After the water flow passes through the flow dividing plate 11, it is divided into two flows, which flow to the two side surfaces of the installation base 1 respectively, so as to increase the transmission efficiency of the water flow and further improve the power generation efficiency.

[0040] Further, the openings of the water inlet parts 4 are all matched with the flow direction of the water flow. The water inlet part 4 located at the front end of the installation base 1 is directly opposite to the water flow, and the water inlet part 4 located at the rear end of the installation base 1 is opposite to the water inlet part 4 at the front end. Because the water flow enters the water flow power generation seat, the water outlet passage is closed to the faucet pipeline 20, and the part of the water flow hitting the water outlet passage will move in the opposite direction and enter the water inlet part 4 at the rear end of the installation base 1. Therefore, the water inlet part 4 matched with the flow direction of the water flow can accelerate the circulation of the water flow, and further improve the power generation efficiency.

[0041] As shown in Figure 5 and Figure 6 , the formation of the water inlet part 4 and the position of the impeller 16 are adjusted to improve the power generation efficiency. Specifically, the impeller 16 is arranged in front of the water inlet part 4, so that the impeller 16 occupies not less than one half of the area of the opening of the water inlet part 4. In this way, most of the water flow entering the water inlet part 4 can act on the impeller 16, so as to effectively improve the power generation efficiency of the water flow.

[0042]

Embodiment 2

[0043] As shown in Figure 7 and Figure 8 , the settings in this embodiment are basically the same as those in Embodiment 1, and the only difference is the structure of the water flow power generation seat. In this embodiment, only the water outlet pipeline 3 is formed at the end side of the installation base 1, and there is no water inlet pipeline 10. The water flow can directly enter the water inlet part 4 along the faucet pipeline 20, which can effectively save materials.

[0044]

Embodiment 3

[0045] As Figure 9 shown, the setting in this embodiment is generally the same as that of embodiment 1, the only difference is the structure of the water flow power generation seat, in this embodiment, the end side of the mounting seat 1 is shaped with a water outlet channel and a support frame 9, the support frame 9 can abut on the inner wall of the faucet pipeline 20, which is conducive to improving the stability of the water flow power generation seat in the faucet pipeline 20.
