Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of water heating technology, specifically a water storage inner tank structure. Background Technology
[0002] A water heater is a device used to heat water. Currently, commercially available water heaters consist of a heating element and an inner tank. The inner tank stores water. When water enters the inner tank, the heating element heats the water. Once the water reaches a set temperature, the heating element stops working, and the heated water flows out of the inner tank for user use. Examples include: an energy-saving, pressureless water heater with automatic control for domestic water use disclosed in Chinese patent application CN201510196569.4; an electric water heater disclosed in Chinese utility model patent CN202322028151.5; an instantaneous electric water heater with anti-dry-burning function disclosed in Chinese patent application CN202410483426.0; and a heating inner tank structure for a coffee machine disclosed in Chinese utility model patent CN202223300670.4, etc.
[0003] However, when water is heated inside the inner liner, it boils. This boiling process generates a large amount of steam and turbulence within the liner. The steam causes thermal expansion, and the turbulence impacts the interior, damaging the liner and affecting its lifespan. Therefore, further improvements are necessary. Utility Model Content
