Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of bath water circulation equipment, specifically to an integrated structure for water supply and drainage in a bathhouse. Background Technology

[0002] In northern regions, public bathhouses are a common type of establishment. To maintain the cleanliness of the hot water in the baths, continuous or intermittent circulation of hot water is necessary, with filtration occurring during this process to ensure water quality.

[0003] The current structural situation is that the water supply and drainage pipes for circulating hot water are both pre-embedded in the bathhouse walls, with the pipe openings exposed. However, when customers are taking a bath, because there is no place to support their bodies in the center of the bathhouse, they will basically lean against the bathhouse walls. Therefore, during the circulation of hot water, this will affect the customers bathing in the bathhouse and reduce their user experience.

[0004] To overcome the above problems, this application proposes a solution. Summary of the Invention

[0005] This utility model proposes an integrated water supply and drainage structure for a bathtub, comprising a bathtub bottom surface, with an internal structure and a water supply and drainage distributor respectively arranged on the upper and lower sides of the bathtub bottom surface; the bottom of the internal structure is open; the water supply and drainage distributor includes a cylindrical body, a first pipe joint, a second pipe joint, and a third pipe joint; the cylindrical body has a water supply space and a drainage space, the first pipe joint is connected to the water supply space, and the second pipe joint is connected to the drainage space; the first pipe joint and the second pipe joint are respectively used to connect the water supply pipe and the drainage pipe; the third pipe joint is connected to one end of a connecting pipe, and the other end of the connecting pipe is fixed to the top of the internal structure; the internal structure and the water supply and drainage distributor are located at the center of the bathtub.

[0006] A further feature of this invention is that a water supply slit is provided at the top of the building structure inside the pool, and the water supply slit is connected to the top of the connecting pipe.

[0007] A further feature of this invention is that a partition is provided inside the cylindrical body, which divides the space inside the cylindrical body into a drainage space and a water supply space.

[0008] A further feature of this invention is that the third pipe connector is disposed on the partition layer.

[0009] A further feature of this invention is that the first pipe connector and the second pipe connector are disposed on the cylindrical body.

[0010] This utility model proposes a heat pump system, including a filter device and a heat pump unit connected by a pipeline, and also includes a water supply pipe connected to the output of the heat pump unit and a drain pipe connected to the input of the filter device. It includes the integrated water supply and drainage structure of the bath as described above, wherein the first pipe joint and the second pipe joint in the integrated water supply and drainage structure are respectively connected to the water supply pipe and the drain pipe.

[0011] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0012] Since both the water supply and drainage are located in the center of the bath, they will not affect the experience of customers inside the bath. The water supply and drainage manifold is pre-installed and has pipe joints with defined positions and directions, which facilitates the assembly of connecting pipes, water supply pipes, and drainage pipes, and also separates the water supply and drainage in one place. In addition, the water supply and drainage are located at different elevations, so they do not interfere with each other. Attached Figure Description

[0017] Preferred embodiments of the present invention will now be described with reference to the accompanying drawings. Those skilled in the art should understand that these embodiments are merely illustrative of the technical principles of the present invention and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0018] Example 1

[0019] This embodiment proposes an integrated water supply and drainage structure for a bathhouse, including an internal building, a water supply and drainage manifold, and connecting pipes. The internal building and the water supply and drainage manifold are located at the center of the bathhouse, but are respectively located on the upper and lower sides of the bathhouse bottom. The internal building is made of building materials and is integrated with the bathhouse during the construction of the public bathhouse; the water supply and drainage manifold is pre-embedded in the bottom of the bathhouse, but is not covered.

[0020] The internal structure of the pool is a vertically arranged rectangular prism. It has an opening on the bottom side wall and a water supply slit on the top side wall. The exterior walls of the internal structure can be decorated for aesthetic purposes.

[0021] The water supply and drainage manifold includes a cylindrical body with its opening facing upwards. A partition is installed inside the cylindrical body, dividing the space into an upper drainage space and a lower water supply space. A first pipe connector and a second pipe connector are installed on the cylindrical body, and a third pipe connector is installed on the partition. The first and second pipe connectors connect to the water supply space and the drainage space, respectively. They also connect to the water supply pipe and the drainage pipe in the bathing heat pump system. Water discharged from the bathtub is transported from the water supply pipe to a filtration device for filtration, heated by the heat pump unit, and finally returned to the bathtub.

[0022] The connecting pipe is located inside the pool structure and is installed vertically. The bottom end of the connecting pipe is connected to the third pipe joint, while the top end is constrained by a circular hole in the pool structure itself. The top end face of the connecting pipe is aligned with the bottom of the water supply slit, connecting the two.

[0023] During water circulation within the bathtub, water enters the drainage space of the water supply and drainage manifold through an open opening. From there, it is transported through the drainage pipe to the main system. After filtration and heating, the water is then transported through the supply pipe to the water supply space below the partition in the water supply and drainage manifold. From there, it is transported through a connecting pipe to the water supply slit, from which it is returned to the bathtub, thus completing a full filtration cycle. The water supply slit prevents large localized water flow impacts.

[0024] Since both the water supply and drainage are located in the center of the bath, they will not affect the experience of customers inside the bath. The water supply and drainage manifold is pre-installed and has pipe joints with defined positions and directions, which facilitates the assembly of connecting pipes, water supply pipes, and drainage pipes, and also separates the water supply and drainage in one place. In addition, the water supply and drainage are located at different elevations, so they do not interfere with each other.

[0025] Example 2

[0026] This embodiment proposes a heat pump system, including an integrated bathtub water supply and drainage structure as described in Embodiment 1 above. It includes a filter device and a heat pump unit connected by pipes, a water supply pipe connected to the output of the heat pump unit, and a drain pipe connected to the input of the filter device. The first and second pipe joints in the integrated bathtub water supply and drainage structure are respectively connected to the water supply pipe and the drain pipe.

[0027] By utilizing the integrated water supply and drainage structure of the bathtub, the water circulation and filtration process of the heat pump system is improved, enabling this embodiment to possess all the technical effects described in Embodiment 1 above.

[0028] Although the present invention has been described with reference to preferred embodiments, various modifications can be made to it and components can be replaced with equivalents without departing from the scope of the present invention. In particular, the technical features mentioned in the various embodiments can be combined in any manner as long as there is no structural conflict.
