[0002] A chiller is a cooling water device that provides constant temperature, constant flow, and constant pressure, and is widely used in industrial production, medical equipment, lasers, and other fields.

[0003] To improve the quality of incoming water, current chillers typically have a filter installed at the inlet pipe. This reduces scale buildup inside the chiller. However, over time, excessive scale can accumulate on the filter, obstructing water flow and requiring regular disassembly and cleaning. This makes subsequent operation cumbersome and inconvenient. Therefore, we propose a chiller with a descaling function. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to overcome the shortcomings of the existing technology, adapt to the needs of reality, and provide a chiller with descaling function to solve the technical problem that the current filter structure will accumulate too much scale on the surface after long-term use, causing water flow obstruction, requiring regular disassembly and cleaning, which leads to cumbersome subsequent operation and certain inconveniences.

[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a chiller with descaling function, including a chiller body, wherein a connecting pipe is fixedly provided at the water inlet of the chiller body;

[0006] The connecting pipe includes a pipe body, a filter element is installed inside the pipe body, and a descaling element that fits against the side end of the filter element is installed inside the connecting pipe.

[0008] This invention utilizes a descaling component design that allows the turbine to rotate during water inflow, which in turn drives the cleaning brush to clean the sides of the filter element. This reduces scale adhesion and clogging of the filter holes while the filter element is filtering the water, improving the smoothness of the filtered water flow. Consequently, it reduces the frequency of disassembling and cleaning the filter element, increases the flexibility of the structure, and facilitates use.

[0009] Preferably, the connecting pipe includes a pipe body, the pipe body has a groove on its wall, a pipe cover fixedly connected to the fixing plate is installed on the outside of the groove, and the outer wall of the filter element protruding from it is snapped together with the inner wall of the pipe cover.

[0010] Preferably, each of the sides of the pipe cap that fits into the pipe body is fixedly provided with a fitting connector, and a U-shaped locking member is snapped between the two connectors.

[0011] Preferably, the two connected connectors are provided with grooves on opposite sides, and the connectors are provided with slots inside the grooves.

[0012] Preferably, each of the opposite sides of the locking member is fixedly provided with a locking strip that engages with the locking groove, and both ends of the locking member are constructed with inclined grooves.

[0013] Preferably, the tube body has sealing grooves on both sides of the top of the slot, the tube cap has sealing strips integrally formed on both sides of the bottom of the tube cap that are combined with the sealing grooves, and the tube cap has sealing gaskets integrally formed on both sides of the top of the tube body that fit against the top of the tube body.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0015] 1. This utility model, through the design of the descaling component, allows the turbine to rotate during the water inlet process due to the pressure of the water flow. This, in turn, drives the cleaning brush to rotate and clean the sides of the filter element. In this way, while the filter element filters the water flow, it can reduce the adhesion of scale, reduce the occurrence of filter hole blockage, improve the smoothness of the filtered water inlet, thereby reducing the frequency of disassembling and cleaning the filter element, increasing the flexibility of the structural fit, and facilitating use.

[0016] 2. This utility model also facilitates quick and easy disassembly and assembly of the descaling component through the cooperation of the pipe body and the pipe cover.

[0023] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, this utility model relates to a chiller with descaling function, including a chiller body 1. A connecting pipe 2 is fixedly provided at the water inlet of the chiller body 1. The connecting pipe 2 includes a pipe body 201. A filter element 3 is installed inside the pipe body 201. A descaling element 5 is installed inside the connecting pipe 2 and is attached to the side end of the filter element 3. By installing the filter element 3 inside the connecting pipe 2, the incoming water can be filtered, thereby reducing the impurities contained in the water entering the chiller body 1. The design of the descaling element 5 can clean the outer surface of the filter element 3 and reduce the probability of clogging.

[0024] The descaling component 5 includes a fixing plate 501. A fixing rod 502 is fixedly installed on one side of the fixing plate 501 near the side of the filter element 3. A turbine 503 is rotatably installed on the other side of the fixing rod 502. A cleaning brush 504 is fixedly installed at the center of the turbine 503 near the side of the filter element 3. The fixing plate 501 and the fixing rod 502 can fix the position of the turbine 503 so that it can maintain a self-rotating state. In this way, the cleaning brush 504 can be driven to rotate under the impact of water flow. At the same time, the through groove 505 opened on the side wall of the fixing plate 501 can reduce the water flow resistance.

[0025] In an embodiment of this utility model, the connecting pipe 2 includes a pipe body 201, and a slot 202 is provided on the pipe wall of the pipe body 201. A pipe cover 4, which is fixedly connected to the fixing plate 501, is installed on the outside of the slot 202. The outer wall of the filter element 3 protrudes and is snapped together with the inner wall of the pipe cover 4. The slot 202 facilitates the installation of the pipe cover 4. This detachable combination structure makes it easy to remove the descaling component 5 from the inside of the connecting pipe 2. At the same time, the snap-connection between the filter element 3 and the pipe cover 4 makes it easy to remove the filter element 3 after removing the pipe cover 4, which facilitates disassembly.

[0026] In the embodiments of this utility model, a connecting piece 6 is fixedly provided on the side of the pipe cap 4 that is in contact with the pipe body 201, and a U-shaped locking piece 7 is snapped between the two connecting pieces 6; the installation position of the pipe cap 4 can be fixed by the cooperation of the connecting piece 6 and the locking piece 7, and such a limiting structure makes it easy to disassemble and assemble the pipe cap 4.

[0027] In the embodiments of this utility model, grooves 601 are provided on opposite sides of the two connected members 6, and slots 602 are provided inside the grooves 601 of the connected members 6. A locking strip 701 that engages with the slot 602 is fixedly provided on the opposite side of the locking members 7. An inclined groove 702 is constructed at both ends of the locking members 7. The grooves 601 can improve the fit between the locking members 7 and the locking members 7. The locking members 7 are flexible and can easily insert the locking strip 701 into the slot 602, thereby limiting the engagement position of the two connected members 6. At the same time, the inclined grooves 702 at both ends of the locking members 7 can easily lift the two sides, so that the locking strip 701 is separated from the slot 602, which facilitates disassembly.

[0028] In the embodiments of this utility model, the top two sides of the tube body 201 located in the slot 202 are provided with sealing grooves 203, the bottom two sides of the tube cover 4 are integrally formed with sealing strips 401 that are combined with the sealing grooves 203, and the top two sides of the tube cover 4 are integrally formed with sealing gaskets 402 that fit against the top of the tube body 201; by cooperating, the tightness of the connection between the tube cover 4 and the tube body 201 can be improved, and the sealing connection effect can be improved.

[0029] Working Principle: This embodiment provides a chiller with descaling function. By fixing the descaling component 5 to the bottom of the pipe cover 4, the descaling component 5 can be fixed inside the pipe body 201 when the pipe cover 4 is connected to the pipe body 201, so that the cleaning brush 504 on the side end fits against the side end surface of the filter element 3. Then, the locking component 7 is inserted into the outside of the two connected connectors 6. The locking strip 701 is inserted into the slot 602 to fix the position of the two connectors 6, thereby fixing the position of the pipe cover 4. In this way, when water enters the connecting pipe 2, it passes through the filter element 3. Water can be filtered, and the incoming water can pressurize the turbine 503 to rotate, thereby causing the side cleaning brush 504 to rotate and clean the side surface of the filter element 3. This reduces the amount of scale adsorbed on the inner surface of the filter element 3, maintaining good unobstructed flow. This reduces the probability of clogging when the filter element 3 filters water for a long time, improving the durability of the structure. At the same time, the structure is easy to disassemble, making it convenient for disassembly and cleaning operations. This makes disassembly and assembly flexible, easy to use, and improves the descaling effect on the inner surface of the filter element 3.

[0030] The embodiments disclosed herein are preferred embodiments, but are not limited thereto. Those skilled in the art can readily grasp the spirit of this utility model based on the above embodiments and make different extensions and variations. However, as long as they do not depart from the spirit of this utility model, they are all within the protection scope of this utility model.
