On the other hand, by arranging the booster pump at the upstream end of the cleaning outlet, the cleaning liquid in the cleaning agent storage component can be prevented from flowing through the booster pump, so that the cleaning liquid can corrode the diaphragm in the booster pump. At the same time, by arranging the circulating pump, the cleaning liquid can flow in the cleaning loop under the action of the circulating pump. Compared with the form that the cleaning liquid flows in the cleaning loop under the action of the booster pump, the cleaning liquid can be prevented from entering the booster pump to corrode the diaphragm in the booster pump, so that the service life of the booster pump is prolonged. Moreover, the cost of the circulating pump is much lower than that of the booster pump, and the arrangement of the circulating pump can greatly reduce the cost of the water purification device, and greatly improves the user experience.
[0017] Further, compared with setting the cleaning assembly in the form of only having the cleaning outlet, setting the cleaning assembly in the form of having the cleaning inlet and the cleaning outlet can make the cleaning assembly form the cleaning liquid by injecting water into the cleaning inlet during cleaning, avoid storing a large amount of cleaning liquid in the cleaning agent storage member to cause the cleaning assembly to be too large in size, and further improve the user experience.
[0018] Still further, setting the cleaning agent assembly to include at least two cleaning pipelines arranged in parallel can make the cleaning assembly use multiple cleaning agents to clean the reverse osmosis membrane filter element, so that different types of dirt on the reverse osmosis membrane filter element can be removed, and the cleaning efficiency and cleaning effect of the reverse osmosis membrane filter element can be improved.
[0019] Still further, by setting the first one-way valve, when the water purification equipment is in the normal water production mode, the water pressure in the water inlet main line can be resisted, and the problem of water leakage of the circulating pump caused by excessive water pressure can be avoided, and the user experience is further improved; by setting the second one-way valve, when the cleaning agent on one of the cleaning pipelines is used to clean the reverse osmosis membrane filter element, the liquid in the manifold can be prevented from flowing back to the cleaning agent storage member, so that the cleaning agent can be prevented from being dissolved too early.
[0020] Still further, by setting the cleaning inlet at the downstream end of the pre-filter unit, the purified water filtered by the pre-filter unit can enter the cleaning agent storage member through the cleaning inlet, and the cleaning agent can be dissolved by the purified water filtered by the pre-filter unit, so that the solubility of the cleaning agent and the cleanliness of the cleaning liquid can be improved, and the cleaning effect of the reverse osmosis membrane filter element can be effectively improved.
[0021] Still further, by setting the cleaning inlet at the upstream end of the water inlet valve and setting the cleaning outlet at the downstream end of the water inlet valve, when the reverse osmosis membrane filter element needs to be cleaned, the water in the water inlet main line can be prevented from directly entering the reverse osmosis membrane filter element by controlling the water inlet valve, so that the cleaning liquid in the reverse osmosis membrane filter element can be prevented from being diluted.
[0022] Still further, by setting the drain pipe and the drain valve, after the reverse osmosis membrane filter element is cleaned, the drain valve is first opened, so that the water containing a small amount of cleaning agent at the pure water end of the reverse osmosis membrane filter element flows into the wastewater outlet pipe through the drain pipe, and when the pure water containing the cleaning agent is completely discharged, the drain valve is closed, so that the water at the pure water end of the reverse osmosis membrane filter element flows into the pure water water member through the pure water outlet pipe, thereby the cleaning agent can be more completely discharged, and zero addition and zero chemical pollution can be achieved.
[0023] Further, by setting the backflow pipe and the backflow valve, the pure water containing a small amount of cleaning agent permeating to the pure water end of the reverse osmosis membrane filter core can be discharged to the upstream end of the booster pump after the cleaning of the reverse osmosis membrane filter core is completed, and is further filtered through the reverse osmosis membrane filter core, so that the cleaning agent can be discharged more completely, which helps to realize zero addition and zero pollution of the reverse osmosis membrane filter core regeneration process. On the other hand, when the water purification equipment is in the normal water production mode and does not produce water for a long time, the reverse osmosis membrane filter core will have the case that the TDS value of the first cup of water increases. The first cup of water can also be backflowed to the upstream end of the booster pump through the backflow pipe to prevent the user from drinking water with a high TDS value.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0035] The preferred embodiments of the present application will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Those skilled in the art should understand that these embodiments are only used to explain the technical principles of the present application, and are not intended to limit the protection scope of the present application.
[0036] It should be noted that in the description of the present application, the terms "upper", "lower", "inner", "outer" and the like indicate the direction or positional relationship of the terms based on the direction or positional relationship shown in the drawings, which is only for the convenience of description, and does not indicate or imply that the device or element must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore cannot be understood as a limitation on the present application. In addition, the terms "first", "second" are only for descriptive purposes and cannot be understood as indicating or implying relative importance.
[0037] In addition, it should also be noted that in the description of the present application, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "mounting", "setting", "connecting" should be understood broadly, for example, it can be fixedly connected, or it can be detachably connected, or it can be integrally connected. For those skilled in the art, the specific meaning of the above terms in the present application can be understood according to the specific circumstances.
[0038] As shown in Figure 1 and Figure 2 The water purification equipment of the present application comprises a reverse osmosis membrane filter core 2, a water inlet main path 1, a cleaning assembly, a booster pump 12, a circulation pipe 61 and a circulation pump 62, and the water inlet main path 1 is in communication with the water inlet end of the reverse osmosis membrane filter core 2.
[0039] The cleaning assembly has a cleaning agent storage member 33 and a cleaning outlet 302 capable of communicating with the water inlet end of the reverse osmosis membrane filter cartridge 2 to deliver the cleaning liquid to the reverse osmosis membrane filter cartridge 2. The booster pump 12 is arranged on the water inlet main line 1 and located at the upstream end of the cleaning outlet 302.
[0040] The first end of the circulation pipe 61 communicates with the wastewater end of the reverse osmosis membrane filter cartridge 2, and the second end of the circulation pipe 61 communicates with the cleaning assembly, so that the cleaning assembly, the water inlet end of the reverse osmosis membrane filter cartridge 2 and the wastewater end of the reverse osmosis membrane filter cartridge 2 are sequentially communicated to form a cleaning loop. The circulation pump 62 is arranged on the cleaning loop and used to circulate the cleaning liquid in the cleaning loop.
[0041] Through such an arrangement, on the one hand, the cleaning assembly, the water inlet end of the reverse osmosis membrane filter cartridge 2 and the wastewater end of the reverse osmosis membrane filter cartridge 2 are sequentially communicated to form a cleaning loop, and the cleaning liquid can be circulated in the cleaning loop, so that the cleaning liquid repeatedly flushes the reverse osmosis membrane filter cartridge 2, improves the cleaning efficiency and enhances the cleaning effect. On the other hand, by arranging the booster pump 12 at the upstream end of the cleaning outlet 302, the cleaning liquid in the cleaning agent storage member can be prevented from flowing through the booster pump 12, thereby avoiding damage to the diaphragm in the booster pump 12. At the same time, by arranging the circulation pump 62, the cleaning liquid can be circulated in the cleaning loop under the action of the circulation pump 62. Compared with the form of circulating the cleaning liquid in the cleaning loop by the booster pump 12, the cleaning liquid can be prevented from entering the booster pump 12 to corrode the diaphragm in the booster pump 12. Moreover, the cost of the circulation pump 62 is much lower than that of the booster pump 12. Arranging the circulation pump 62 can also greatly reduce the cost of the water purification equipment, thereby prolonging the service life of the booster pump 12 and greatly improving the user experience.
[0042] It should be noted that when the reverse osmosis membrane filter cartridge 2 has been used for a short time, the cleaning assembly can clean the reverse osmosis membrane filter cartridge 2 to remove all dirt on the reverse osmosis membrane filter cartridge 2, thereby regenerating the reverse osmosis membrane filter cartridge 2. When the reverse osmosis membrane filter cartridge 2 has been used for a long time, the cleaning assembly can clean the reverse osmosis membrane filter cartridge 2 to remove most of the dirt on the reverse osmosis membrane filter cartridge 2, thereby greatly regenerating the reverse osmosis membrane filter cartridge 2.
[0043] It should be further noted that in actual application, the reverse osmosis membrane filter cartridge 2 can be arranged to have two water inlet ports, the water inlet main line 1 and the cleaning outlet 302 can be arranged to communicate with the two water inlet ports, or the cleaning outlet 302 can be arranged to communicate with the water inlet main line 1, the cleaning assembly can deliver the cleaning liquid to the reverse osmosis membrane filter cartridge 2 through the water inlet main line 1, and the like. Such flexible adjustment and change do not deviate from the principles and scope of the present application and should be included in the protection scope of the present application.
[0044] It also needs to be explained that in actual application, the specific setting type of the cleaning assembly is not limited, for example, the cleaning assembly can be set to only have the cleaning outlet 302, that is, a large amount of cleaning liquid is directly stored in the cleaning agent storage member 33, when the reverse osmosis membrane filter core 2 needs to be cleaned, the cleaning agent stored in the cleaning agent storage member 33 flows out from the cleaning outlet 302 and is transported into the reverse osmosis membrane filter core 2, or the cleaning assembly can also be set to include the cleaning pipeline 31 and the cleaning agent storage member 33 arranged on the cleaning pipeline 31, the two ends of the cleaning pipeline 31 form the cleaning inlet 301 and the cleaning outlet 302 respectively, water is injected into the cleaning inlet 301 so as to form the cleaning liquid in the cleaning agent storage member 33, and the like, the adjustment and change of the specific setting type of the cleaning assembly do not deviate from the principles and scope of the utility model, and should be included in the protection scope of the utility model.
[0045] Preferably, as shown in Figure 1 and Figure 2 The cleaning assembly also has the cleaning pipeline 31, the two ends of the cleaning pipeline 31 form the cleaning inlet 301 and the cleaning outlet 302 respectively, the cleaning inlet 301 is in communication with the water inlet main line 1, so that the water in the water inlet main line 1 enters the cleaning agent storage member 33 through the cleaning inlet 301 to form the cleaning liquid, the cleaning outlet 302 is in communication with the water inlet main line 1, so that the cleaning liquid is transported into the reverse osmosis membrane filter core 2 through the cleaning outlet 302, the second end of the circulating pipeline 61 is in communication with the cleaning pipeline 31, and the circulating pump 62 is arranged on the cleaning pipeline 31.
[0046] Through such a setting, compared with the form of setting the cleaning assembly to only have the cleaning outlet 302, the form of setting the cleaning assembly to have the cleaning inlet 301 and the cleaning outlet 302 can make the cleaning assembly form the cleaning liquid by injecting water into the cleaning inlet 301 during cleaning, avoid storing a large amount of cleaning liquid in the cleaning agent storage member 33 to cause the volume of the cleaning assembly to be too large, and further improve the user's use experience.
[0047] It needs to be explained that in actual application, the circulating pump 62 is not limited to being arranged on the cleaning pipeline 31, for example, the circulating pump 62 can also be arranged on the circulating pipeline 61, or the circulating pump 62 can also be arranged on the water inlet main line 1 between the cleaning outlet 302 and the reverse osmosis membrane filter core 2, and the like, the adjustment and change of the specific setting position of the circulating pump 62 do not deviate from the principles and scope of the utility model, and should be included in the protection scope of the utility model.

[0090] The following two cases are introduced below.
[0091] Case 1:

[0096] Through such arrangement, when the cleaning assembly cleans the reverse osmosis membrane filter core 2, the dirt cleaned can be prevented from entering the waste water valve 211 to cause the waste water valve 211 to be blocked, and the service life of the waste water valve 211 can be prolonged.

[0098] Preferably, as shown in Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the water purification device further comprises a stop valve 212 arranged on the wastewater outlet pipe 21 and used for controlling the opening and closing of the wastewater outlet pipe 21.
[0099] Case 2:
[0100] As shown in Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the water purification device further comprises a wastewater outlet pipe 21 and a wastewater valve 211 arranged on the wastewater outlet pipe 21, and the wastewater end of the reverse osmosis membrane filter element 2 can selectively communicate with the wastewater outlet pipe 21 or the first end of the circulation pipe 61.
[0101] Through such an arrangement, when the water purification device is in a normal water production mode, the wastewater end of the reverse osmosis membrane filter element 2 is communicated with the wastewater outlet pipe 21, and the filtered wastewater flows out through the wastewater outlet pipe 21, and when the water purification device is in a cleaning mode, the wastewater end of the reverse osmosis membrane filter element 2 is communicated with the first end of the circulation pipe 61, so that the cleaning assembly, the water inlet end of the reverse osmosis membrane filter element 2 and the wastewater end of the reverse osmosis membrane filter element 2 are sequentially communicated to form a cleaning loop, thereby achieving convenient switching between the water production mode and the cleaning mode, and further improving the user experience.
[0102] It should be noted that, in actual application, the specific communication mode of the water purification device for selectively communicating the wastewater end of the reverse osmosis membrane filter element 2 with the wastewater outlet pipe 21 or the first end of the circulation pipe 61 is not limited in any way, for example, a reversing valve 7 can be arranged, wherein the first interface of the reversing valve 7 is communicated with the wastewater end of the reverse osmosis membrane filter element 2, the second interface of the reversing valve 7 is communicated with the wastewater outlet pipe 21, and the third interface of the reversing valve 7 is communicated with the first end of the circulation pipe 61, or a three-way pipe 8 can also be arranged, wherein the first end of the three-way pipe 8 is communicated with the wastewater end of the reverse osmosis membrane filter element 2, the second end and the third end of the three-way pipe 8 are respectively communicated with the wastewater outlet pipe 21 or the first end of the circulation pipe 61, and the first valve and the second valve are respectively arranged on the wastewater outlet pipe 21 and the circulation pipe 61 to enable the wastewater end of the reverse osmosis membrane filter element 2 to selectively communicate with the wastewater outlet pipe 21 or the first end of the circulation pipe 61, and the like, and such flexible adjustment and change does not deviate from the principles and scope of the present application, and should be included in the protection scope of the present application.

[0104] Through the arrangement, the pipeline connection can be further simplified, and the simplicity of the water purification equipment is improved.
[0105] Preferably, as shown in the drawings, the water purification equipment further comprises a pre-filter unit 4, a water outlet end of the pre-filter unit 4 is communicated with the water inlet main line 1, and the cleaning inlet 301 is located at a downstream end of the pre-filter unit 4. Figures 1 to 4
[0106] Through the arrangement, that is, by arranging the cleaning inlet 301 to be located at the downstream end of the pre-filter unit, the purified water filtered by the pre-filter unit 4 can enter the cleaning agent storage member 33 through the cleaning inlet 301, and the cleaning agent is dissolved by the purified water filtered by the pre-filter unit 4, so that the solubility of the cleaning agent and the cleanliness of the cleaning liquid are improved, thereby effectively improving the cleaning effect of the reverse osmosis membrane filter core 2.
[0107] It should be noted that in actual application, the pre-filter unit 4 can be arranged as a pre-filter core, or the pre-filter unit 4 can be arranged as a composite filter core including a pre-filter core and a post-filter core, and the like, and such adjustment and change of the specific type of the pre-filter unit 4 do not deviate from the principles and scope of the present application, and should be included in the protection scope of the present application.
[0108] Preferably, the pre-filter unit 4 is a pre-filter core.
[0109] Preferably, as shown in the drawings, the water purification equipment further comprises a water inlet valve 11 arranged on the water inlet main line 1, the cleaning inlet 301 is located at an upstream end of the water inlet valve 11, and the cleaning outlet 302 is located at a downstream end of the water inlet valve 11. Figures 1 to 4
[0110] Through the arrangement, when the reverse osmosis membrane filter core 2 needs to be cleaned, the water in the water inlet main line 1 can be prevented from directly entering the reverse osmosis membrane filter core 2 by controlling the water inlet valve 11, so as to avoid diluting the cleaning liquid entering the reverse osmosis membrane filter core 2.
[0111] It should be noted that in practical applications, the arrangement is not limited to placing the cleaning inlet 301 upstream of the water inlet valve 11 and the cleaning outlet 302 downstream of the water inlet valve 11. For example, both the cleaning inlet 301 and the cleaning outlet 302 can be placed upstream of the water inlet valve 11, or both can be placed downstream of the water inlet valve 11, and so on. Such adjustments and changes to the relative positions of the cleaning components and the water inlet valve 11 do not deviate from the principles and scope of this utility model and should be included within the protection scope of this utility model. Preferably, the cleaning inlet 301 is placed upstream of the water inlet valve 11, and the cleaning outlet 302 is placed downstream of the water inlet valve 11.
[0112] It should be noted that, in practical applications, those skilled in the art can place the booster pump 12 upstream of the inlet valve 11, or they can place the booster pump 12 downstream of the inlet valve 11, etc. Such adjustments and changes to the specific positions of the booster pump 12 and the inlet valve 11 do not deviate from the principle and scope of this utility model, and should all be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
[0113] Preferably, such as Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the booster pump 12 is located upstream of the inlet valve 11, and the cleaning inlet 301 is located between the booster pump 12 and the inlet valve 11.
[0114] By placing the booster pump 12 upstream of the inlet valve 11 and placing the cleaning inlet 301 between the booster pump 12 and the inlet valve 11, the cleaning inlet 301 can be located downstream of the booster pump 12. This facilitates the pumping of water from the main inlet channel 1 into the cleaning assembly and then into the reverse osmosis membrane filter element 2 via the booster pump 12, thereby improving cleaning efficiency and cleaning effect.
[0115] Preferably, such as Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the water purification equipment of this utility model also includes a pure water outlet pipe 5 and a pure water user component 51. The pure water end of the reverse osmosis membrane filter element 2 is connected to the pure water user component 51 through the pure water outlet pipe 5.
[0116] It should be noted that in actual application, the person skilled in the art can directly set the pure water water member 51 as a water outlet member (such as a faucet or a water outlet nozzle), and the filtered pure water flows out of the faucet or the water outlet nozzle for use by the user, or the pure water water member 51 can be set as a post-filter cartridge, and the filtered pure water flows into the post-filter cartridge to improve the taste for use by the user, or the pure water water member 51 can be set as a pure water tank, and the filtered pure water filtered by the reverse osmosis membrane filter cartridge 2 flows into the pure water tank for storage for use by the user, and the like, and such adjustment and change of the specific setting type of the pure water water member 51 does not deviate from the principles and scope of the present application, and should be included in the protection scope of the present application.
[0117] Preferably, the pure water water member 51 is a post-filter cartridge.
[0118] It should be noted that when the reverse osmosis membrane filter cartridge 2 is cleaned, a small amount of cleaning agent will penetrate through the membrane of the reverse osmosis membrane filter cartridge 2 to the pure water end, and therefore, after cleaning is completed, a small amount of cleaning agent will be left in the "first cup of water" of the pure water end of the reverse osmosis membrane filter cartridge 2, and in order to better achieve zero addition and zero pollution during the regeneration process of the reverse osmosis membrane filter cartridge 2, the pure water containing a small amount of cleaning agent in the "first cup of water" needs to be discharged before being used by the user.
[0119] The following will be described in combination with Figures 5 to 8 and the following two cases.
[0120] Case 1:
[0121] As shown in Figure 5 and Figure 6 , the water purification equipment further comprises a drain pipe 22 and a drain valve 221, one end of the drain pipe 22 is in communication with the pure water outlet pipe 5, the other end is in communication with the waste water outlet pipe 21, and the drain valve 221 is arranged on the drain pipe 22 and is used to control the opening and closing of the drain pipe 22.
[0122] Through such a setting, after the cleaning of the reverse osmosis membrane filter cartridge 2 is completed, the drain valve 221 is first opened, and the water at the pure water end of the reverse osmosis membrane filter cartridge 2 flows into the waste water outlet pipe 21 through the drain pipe 22, and when the pure water containing a small amount of cleaning agent at the pure water end of the reverse osmosis membrane filter cartridge 2 is completely discharged, the drain valve 221 is closed, and the water at the pure water end of the reverse osmosis membrane filter cartridge 2 flows into the pure water water member 51 through the pure water outlet pipe 5, so that the cleaning agent is more completely discharged, and thus more conducive to achieving zero addition and zero pollution during the regeneration process of the reverse osmosis membrane filter cartridge 2.
[0123] Case 2:
[0124] As shown in Figure 7 and Figure 8As shown, the water purification equipment also includes a return pipe 23 and a return valve 231. One end of the return pipe 23 is connected to the pure water outlet pipe 5, and the other end of the return pipe 23 is connected to the upstream end of the booster pump 12. The return valve 231 is installed on the return pipe 23 and is used to control the opening and closing of the return pipe 23.
[0125] With this setup, on the one hand, after cleaning the reverse osmosis membrane filter 2, the pure water containing a small amount of detergent at the pure water end of the reverse osmosis membrane filter 2 can be discharged to the upstream end of the booster pump 12 for further filtration through the reverse osmosis membrane filter 2 to allow the detergent to be discharged. On the other hand, when the water purification equipment is in normal water production mode and does not produce water for a long time, the reverse osmosis membrane filter 2 may experience an increase in the TDS value of the first cup of water. The "first cup of water" can also be returned to the upstream end of the booster pump 12 through the return pipe 23 to prevent users from drinking water with a high TDS value.
[0126] It should be noted that although a small amount of cleaning agent may seep into the pure water end of the reverse osmosis membrane filter 2 during the cleaning process, the amount of cleaning agent is small and the concentration is extremely low, so it will not affect the diaphragm of the booster pump 12. Therefore, the process of returning the pure water containing a small amount of cleaning agent from the pure water end of the reverse osmosis membrane filter 2 to the upstream end of the booster pump 12 through the return pipe 23, and then being transported by the booster pump 12 to the inlet end of the reverse osmosis membrane filter 2, will not corrode the diaphragm of the booster pump 12.
[0127] It should also be noted that although this utility model is described in the above two cases, it is not restrictive. For example, the other end of the drain pipe 22 can be directly connected to the drain pipe or the wastewater outlet of the water purification equipment, and the pure water containing detergent can be directly discharged to the drain pipe or the wastewater outlet of the water purification equipment.
[0128] Preferably, such as Figures 5 to 8 As shown, the water purification equipment of this utility model also includes a water quality detection component 52, wherein the water quality detection component 52 is used to detect the water quality information of the pure water end of the reverse osmosis membrane filter element 2.
[0129] By setting up the water quality detection component 52, the water quality information of the pure water end of the reverse osmosis membrane filter element 2 can be monitored in real time. When the water quality of the pure water end of the reverse osmosis membrane filter element 2 is detected to meet the standard, the pure water end of the reverse osmosis membrane filter element 2 is connected to the pure water use component 51 in a timely manner. This allows for accurate determination of whether the cleaning agent at the pure water end of the reverse osmosis membrane filter element 2 has been completely discharged, thereby saving water and extending the service life of the reverse osmosis membrane filter element 2.
[0130] It should be noted that the specific setting position of the water quality detection component 52 is not limited in the present application, for example, the water quality detection component 52 can be arranged on the pure water outlet pipe 5, or the water quality detection component 52 can be arranged on the drain pipe 22 or the backflow pipe 23, etc., and the adjustment and change of the specific setting position of the water quality detection component 52 do not deviate from the principles and scope of the present application, and should be included in the protection scope of the present application.
[0131] Preferably, as shown in the figure, the water quality detection component 52 is arranged on the pure water outlet pipe 5. Figures 5 to 8
[0132] It should be noted that in actual application, the water quality detection component 52 can be arranged as a TDS sensor, or the water quality detection component 52 can be arranged as a PH value sensor, or the water quality detection component 52 can be arranged as any other possible form, etc., and the adjustment and change of the specific setting type of the water quality detection component 52 do not deviate from the principles and scope of the present application, and should be included in the protection scope of the present application.
[0133] Exemplarily, the water quality detection component 52 is a TDS sensor.
[0134] So far, the technical scheme of the present application has been described in combination with the preferred embodiments shown in the figures, but the skilled in the art can easily understand that the protection scope of the present application is obviously not limited to these specific embodiments. The skilled in the art can make equivalent changes or replacements to the related technical features without deviating from the principles of the present application, and the technical scheme after the changes or replacements will fall within the protection scope of the present application.
