[0104] The embodiment also provides a pure soft water machine, the pure soft water machine includes a bypass valve 100, the pure soft water machine includes a pure water machine and a soft water machine, the pure water machine is connected with the first water inlet 12, and the soft water machine is connected with the second water outlet 15.The above structure is used, the bypass valve 100 is applied to the pure soft water machine, when being in the first state, the first water inlet 12 is connected with the first water outlet 14, so that the pure water treated by the pure water machine can flow to the user end smoothly, meets the daily drinking water demand of user, and simultaneously, the second water inlet 13 is connected with the second water outlet 15, ensures that water source can continuously and stably flow into the soft water machine, provides necessary water source support for normal operation of the soft water machine.When switching to the second state, the second water inlet 13 is connected with the first water outlet 14, so that the water source originally directly flowing to the soft water machine can be guided to the user end, provides more water selection for user.In certain special circumstances, such as the pure water machine needs maintenance or the soft water machine temporarily does not need to work, the bypass valve 100 can ensure that the water demand of the user end is still satisfied, avoids the water terminal of equipment failure or maintenance.In addition, when the valve core 2 is rotated to the first state, the pure water machine and the water end and the water source and the soft water machine can be connected simultaneously.In other words, by using the above structure, the pure water machine and the water end and the water source and the soft water machine can be connected by one operation, thereby reducing the complexity of operation.In addition, when the soft water machine needs to replace resin, the first state and the second state can be switched by rotating the valve core 2, so that the water in the water main pipe can not enter the soft water machine, so that the first state and the second state can be switched by rotating one valve core 2, and the operation is convenient.
[0105] Although the specific embodiments of the present application are described above, those skilled in the art should understand that this is only an example, the protection scope of the present application is defined by the appended claims. Those skilled in the art can make various changes or modifications to these embodiments without departing from the principles and essence of the present application, and these changes and modifications all fall within the protection scope of the present application.
