[0030] In order to make the purpose, technical scheme and advantages of the present application clearer, the present application will be further described in detail below with reference to the drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only intended to explain the present application and not to limit the present application.
[0031] In the related art, water drinking equipment is generally integrated with soft water treatment and water quality purification treatment functions, and can provide soft water and filtered water to users. The inventors have found that the water drinking equipment on the market does not configure a pipeline for supplying tap water, and it is difficult to simultaneously meet the washing needs and drinking needs of users. When users obtain tap water, they need to seek other equipment or water sources. In order to solve the above problems, a water distribution pipeline is usually arranged outside the water drinking equipment to supply tap water, resulting in an increase in the structural redundancy of the water supply system and an increase in the installation and maintenance costs of users. Based on this, the embodiments of the present application provide a soft water valve, a soft water system and a purified water drinking machine.
[0032] Please refer to Figs. 1-2 The embodiments of the present application provide a soft water valve 020, which is used in a purified water drinking machine 001. The soft water valve 020 includes a valve housing, which has an original water inlet channel 0211A and a first soft water outlet channel 0212A. The original water inlet channel 0211A is used to receive original water, and the first soft water outlet channel 0212A is used to receive soft water generated after the original water is treated by a resin tank 010 of the purified water drinking machine 001. The valve housing also has an original water outlet channel 0213A and a second soft water outlet channel 0214A. The original water outlet channel 0213A is in communication with the original water inlet channel 0211A, so as to guide part of the original water entering the original water inlet channel 0211A to directly flow out of the original water inlet channel 0211A. The second soft water outlet channel 0214A is in communication with the first soft water outlet channel 0212A, so as to guide part of the soft water entering the first soft water outlet channel 0212A to directly flow out of the first soft water outlet channel 0212A.
[0033] In the embodiments of the present application, the soft water valve 020 can split and output original water and soft water, so as to meet different water use needs of users and improve the user experience. The original water treated by the purified water drinking machine 001 is supplied to users as domestic water, so as to meet the domestic water needs of users such as washing vegetables and watering flowers, and an external pipeline does not need to be configured in the purified water drinking machine 001, thereby reducing the material and installation costs. The soft water valve 020 of the present application is provided with two soft water output channels, which can supply different soft water components. For example, the first soft water outlet channel 0212A supplies a water purification system 003 to reduce scale blockage, and the second soft water outlet channel 0214A supplies users as drinking water.
[0034] It should be noted that the soft water valve 020 includes a valve shell and a plurality of control components arranged in the valve shell, a plurality of water conveying channels are formed in the valve shell, and the plurality of water conveying channels are respectively used to communicate with an external raw water pipeline, a blowdown pipeline, and a resin tank 010 and a salt tank assembly 030 of the soft water system 002, and the control components are used to control the on-off of the plurality of water conveying channels to switch the flow path in the soft water valve 020, so as to realize a plurality of functions such as soft water making, salt dissolving, salt absorbing, and backwashing.
[0035] In some embodiments, the soft water valve 020 includes a main valve body 021, the main valve body 021 includes an inlet raw water connector 0211 having an inlet raw water channel 0211A and an outlet raw water connector 0213 having an outlet raw water channel 0213A, and the outlet raw water connector 0213 is arranged at the inlet raw water connector 0211 to communicate the outlet raw water channel 0213A with the inlet raw water channel 0211A. Raw water entering the soft water valve 020 from an external raw water pipeline passes through the inlet raw water channel 0211A and the outlet raw water channel 0213A in sequence and is directly output from the soft water valve 020, so as to shorten the path of the soft water valve 020 for supplying raw water as much as possible, avoid turbulent flow and pressure drop caused by multi-stage shunting, and ensure rapid supply of raw water.
[0036] In order to meet various water use scenarios, the main valve body 021 includes a first outlet soft water connector 0212 having a first outlet soft water channel 0212A and a second outlet soft water connector 0214 having a second outlet soft water channel 0214A in the embodiments of the present application. The main valve body 021 is provided with two outlet soft water connectors, without the need for additional installation of a three-way connector or other shunting devices, and covers multiple scene requirements. The second outlet soft water connector 0214 is arranged at the first outlet soft water connector 0212 to communicate the first outlet soft water channel 0212A with the second outlet soft water channel 0214A, and the two soft water conveying channels are internally communicated to ensure balanced water flow pressure.
[0037] Please refer to Figs. 3-4The main valve body 021 includes a first valve shell 0215, an inlet raw water pipe 0211 and a first outlet soft water pipe 0212. The inlet raw water pipe 0211 has an inlet raw water passage 0211A. The first outlet soft water pipe 0212 has a first outlet soft water passage 0212A. The first valve shell 0215 has a main cavity 0215A. The inlet raw water pipe 0211 and the first outlet soft water pipe 0212 are arranged outside the first valve shell 0215 and are connected to the first valve shell 0215 respectively so as to be installed with other components. The soft water valve 020 further includes a valve core 0231 arranged in the main cavity 0215A. The inlet raw water passage 0211A is communicated with the main cavity 0215A. The valve core 0231 is used to adjust the communication between the main cavity 0215A and the resin tank 010 or the salt tank assembly 030 of the pure drinking water machine 001 so as to control the water supply of the inlet raw water passage 0211A to the resin tank 010 or the salt tank assembly 030 to meet the water supply for soft water production or resin regeneration.
[0038] In some embodiments, the inlet raw water pipe 0211 and the first outlet soft water pipe 0212 are arranged side by side. The inlet raw water passage 0211A and the main cavity 0215A are communicated through a first liquid passage 0215B arranged in the first valve shell 0215. The first liquid passage 0215B extends from the inlet raw water pipe 0211 towards the main cavity 0215A. The first liquid passage 0215B is designed in a straight line. The raw water does not need to pass through a plurality of bending passages during the process of flowing through the inlet raw water passage 0211A and the first liquid passage 0215B. The raw water can flow to the main cavity 0215A quickly to improve the water flow efficiency.
[0039] Please refer to Fig. 5 The soft water valve 020 further includes a secondary valve body 022 used to be connected with the resin tank 010 and the salt tank assembly 030. The secondary valve body 022 includes a second valve shell 0221 and a first tank body pipe 0222 and a second tank body pipe 0223 arranged in the second valve shell 0221. The second valve shell 0221 is connected to the first valve shell 0215. The first tank body pipe 0222 has a first tank body passage 0222A. The second tank body pipe 0223 has a second tank body passage 0223A. The first tank body passage 0222A and the second tank body passage 0223A are used to be communicated with the resin cavity of the resin tank 010 respectively so as to deliver raw water or salt water to the resin tank 010.
[0040] Specifically, the first tank passage 0222A is connected to the top of the resin cavity, and the second tank passage 0223A is connected to the bottom of the resin cavity. When the soft water valve 020 is working, water enters the resin tank 010 from the first tank passage 0222A or the second tank passage 0223A. For example, during the process of making soft water in the soft water system 002, raw water enters the top of the resin tank 010 through the first tank passage 0222A, flows through the resin cavity, and then enters the soft water valve 020 through the second tank passage 0223A connected to the bottom of the resin cavity; during the process of resin regeneration in the soft water system 002, raw water or brine enters the bottom of the resin tank 010 through the second tank passage 0223A, and then enters the soft water valve 020 through the first tank passage 0222A connected to the top of the resin cavity.
[0041] Please refer to Fig. 6 The first valve housing 0215 is further provided with a second liquid passage 0215C and a third liquid passage 0215D. The second liquid passage 0215C is connected to the main chamber 0215A and the first tank passage 0222A, respectively. The spool 0231 can control the connection and disconnection between the second liquid passage 0215C and the main chamber 0215A. The third liquid passage 0215D is connected to the first soft water outlet passage 0212A and the second tank passage 0223A, respectively. In this way, the soft water formed by the resin tank 010 flows out of the soft water valve 020 through the second tank passage 0223A, the third liquid passage 0215D, and the first soft water outlet passage 0212A, or the soft water formed by the resin tank 010 flows out of the soft water valve 020 through the second tank passage 0223A, the third liquid passage 0215D, the first soft water outlet passage 0212A, and the second soft water outlet passage 0214A.
[0042] Further, the spool 0231 has a first spool position. In the first spool position, the raw water inlet passage 0211A, the main chamber 0215A, the second liquid passage 0215C, and the first tank passage 0222A are sequentially connected to guide raw water to enter the resin tank 010 through the first tank passage 0222, and the soft water formed by the resin tank 010 sequentially passes through the second tank passage 0223A and the third liquid passage 0215D, and flows out of the first soft water outlet passage 0212A and / or the second soft water outlet passage 0214A. That is, the first spool position of the spool 0231 defines a soft water making water path of the soft water valve 020.
