Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of ozone application technology, specifically an ozone water machine. Background Technology

[0002] Ozone water machines are widely used in the food and cosmetics industries for cleaning raw materials, as well as in home central water treatment. They primarily work by generating ozone gas through an ozone generator, which is then mixed with water to create ozone water with sterilization and disinfection effects. The core components of an ozone water machine include an ozone generator, a gas-water mixer, and the piping system connecting these components. In practical applications, the dissolution effect of ozone directly affects the sterilization effect and efficiency of the ozone water.

[0003] Existing ozone water machines are designed to introduce ozone into the water via a flexible hose and a one-way valve, causing the ozone to mix in the water pipe before finally connecting to the main pipeline. However, the opening pressure of the one-way valve increases the resistance to ozone gas delivery, reducing the actual ozone flow rate into the water. At the same time, the opening of the one-way valve allows large-sized ozone bubbles to come into direct contact with the water in the main pipeline, further weakening the ozone dissolution efficiency.

[0004] Therefore, this application aims to address the problem that ozone flows directly into the main pipeline through a one-way valve, resulting in low ozone dissolution efficiency in the water of the main pipeline, which affects the preparation of ozone water. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this application is to provide an ozone water generator that optimizes the connection structure of the pipeline, improves the ozone dissolution efficiency in the main pipeline, and increases the ozone dissolution amount in the water.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this application provides an ozone water generator, comprising:

[0007] case;

[0008] A main pipe, which is connected to the inner wall of the shell, allows water to flow in from one end and out from the other.

[0009] The mixing element is connected to the main pipe; and

[0010] An ozone generator connected to the mixing unit supplies ozone it generates into the mixing unit and sprays it from the mixing unit into the main pipe;

[0011] The main pipe, the mixing component, and the ozone generator are all housed within the housing.

[0012] Furthermore, the mixing component includes a connecting portion connected to the main pipe, a jetting portion disposed on the connecting portion, and a mixing portion located at the connection between the connecting portion and the jetting portion. The injection end of the jetting portion is connected to the mixing portion, and the air inlet end of the jetting portion is connected to the ozone generator via a connecting pipe.

[0013] Furthermore, the jetting direction of the jet section is perpendicular to the water flow direction of the mixing section.

[0014] Furthermore, the jetting direction of the jet section is inclined to the water flow direction of the mixing section.

[0015] Furthermore, the angle between the jetting direction of the jetting section and the water flow direction of the mixing section is 60° to 90°.

[0016] Furthermore, the cross-section of the mixing portion is at least smaller than the cross-section of the connecting portion.

[0017] Furthermore, the main pipeline includes an inlet pipe and an outlet pipe, which are respectively connected to the inlet end and outlet end of the mixing component, and are assembled inside the housing.

[0018] Furthermore, a flow switch is connected between the mixing component and the outlet pipe. The inlet pipe, the mixing component, the flow switch, and the outlet pipe are straight strips, and the inlet pipe and the outlet pipe are respectively located on opposite side walls of the housing.

[0019] Furthermore, the housing includes a nested bottom shell and a top cover, and the main pipe, the mixing component, and the ozone generator are all mounted on the bottom shell.

[0020] Furthermore, a partition is connected to the bottom shell to separate the main pipe and the ozone generator.

[0021] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0022] This invention assembles a mixing component on the main pipeline, and an ozone generator supplies ozone to the mixing component, allowing the ozone gas to be sprayed into the water in the main pipeline at the mixing component. This allows the ozone gas to fully collide and dissolve in the water, forming tiny ozone bubbles, thus improving the ozone dissolution efficiency. This avoids the use of the original one-way valve, which resulted in low ozone dissolution efficiency in the water, wasting ozone and causing the ozone water preparation to fail to meet the requirements.

[0023] The mixing component employs a jet section and a connecting section that work together, with the jet section and the connecting section set at an angle. This allows ozone bubbles to flow into the water in a shearing manner, increasing the collision degree between the water and the ozone bubbles and accelerating the diffusion of ozone molecules into the water. At the same time, the countercurrent flow will form local eddies, prolonging the residence time of the bubbles in the water, inhibiting the aggregation between bubbles, maintaining the dispersion stability of microbubbles, and avoiding a decrease in dissolution efficiency due to the bubbles becoming larger.

Detailed Implementation

[0029] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this application clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0030] Please refer to the details. Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, an ozone water generator includes a shell, a main pipe, a mixing element 12, and an ozone generator 8. The main pipe is connected to the inner wall of the shell, allowing water to flow in from one end and out from the other. The mixing element 12 is connected to the main pipe. The ozone generator 8 is connected to the mixing element 12, supplying the ozone it generates into the mixing element 12 and then spraying it from the mixing element 12 into the main pipe. The main pipe, mixing element 12, and ozone generator 8 are all housed within the shell. By supplying water to one end of the main pipe (exposed to the outside of the shell), water flows into the shell and passes through the mixing element 12, where ozone is sprayed and dissolved. The ozone-dissolved water then flows out from the other end of the main pipe onto the outer wall of the shell, thus achieving ozone production. The entire process involves the ozone dissolving at the mixing element 12 through spraying, improving the ozone dissolution efficiency in the water.

[0031] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, specifically, the mixing component 12 includes a connecting portion 122 connected to the main pipe, a jetting portion 121 disposed on the connecting portion 122, and a mixing portion 123 located at the connection between the connecting portion 122 and the jetting portion 121. The spraying end of the jetting portion 121 is connected to the mixing portion 123, and the air inlet end of the jetting portion 121 is connected to the ozone generator 8 via a connecting pipe 11. The jetting portion 121 is used to spray gas from the ozone generator 8 into the mixing portion 123. When water flows in from the inlet pipe 6 and from the connecting portion 122 to the mixing portion 123, the jetting portion 121 sprays ozone towards the mixing portion 123, further integrating the ozone into the water and increasing the ozone content in the water at the mixing portion 123. In this application, the jetting portion 121 can be an ejector, allowing the ozone to form several small air bubbles in the water at the mixing portion 123, thereby increasing the ozone content in the water.

[0032] like Figure 3 As shown, in one embodiment of this application, the jetting direction of the jetting section 121 is perpendicular to the water flow direction of the mixing section 123. The jetting section 121 sprays ozone in a flow path perpendicular to the water body, so that the ozone bubbles flow into the water body in a shearing manner, thereby increasing the degree of collision between the water body and the ozone bubbles.

[0033] like Figure 3 As shown, in another embodiment of this application, the jetting direction of the jetting section 121 is inclined to the water flow direction of the mixing section 123. The jetting section 121 is sprayed into the water at an angle to the water flow direction. In the path through which the water flows, the generation of microbubbles of ozone in the water can be increased, further promoting the dissolution of ozone in the water. As a preferred embodiment of this application, the angle between the jetting direction of the jetting section 121 and the water flow direction of the mixing section 123 is 60° to 90°. That is, the jetting direction of the jetting section 121 in this application is inclined within 30° from both sides perpendicular to the water flow direction of the mixing section 123. The specific angle can be selected according to the needs.

[0034] When the water flow direction of the jet section 121 and the mixing section 123 is tilted, and the sprayed ozone bubbles move forward with the water, the ozone continuously fluctuates with the direction of the water's movement, causing the subsequently flowing water to continuously dissolve the fluctuating ozone bubbles, thereby improving the dissolution efficiency.

[0035] As the preferred embodiment of this application, when the water flow direction of the jet section 121 and the mixing section 123 is inclined, and the sprayed ozone bubbles collide with the water, the shear force between the fluids increases significantly, which can effectively break the ozone bubbles into micron-sized particles, accelerate the diffusion of ozone molecules into the water, and at the same time, the opposing flow will form local eddies, prolong the residence time of the bubbles in the water, inhibit the aggregation between bubbles, maintain the dispersion stability of microbubbles, and avoid the decrease in dissolution efficiency due to the bubbles becoming larger.

[0036] To further improve the solubility of ozone in water, the inner wall of the mixing section 123 is made of a superhydrophobic layer, that is, the contact surface between ozone and water is coated with a superhydrophobic coating to reduce bubble adhesion and avoid local concentration polarization.

[0037] To further enhance the counterbalancing effect between water and ozone, the cross-section of the mixing section 123 is at least smaller than the cross-section of the connecting section 122, thereby increasing the water flow velocity in the mixing section 123, increasing the shear force between the fluids, and enabling the shear force to further break the ozone gas into smaller bubbles, making it easier to dissolve in the water.

[0038] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the main pipeline includes an inlet pipe 6 and an outlet pipe 14, which are respectively connected to the inlet and outlet ends of the mixing component 12. The inlet pipe 6 and the outlet pipe 14 are assembled inside the housing. Both the inlet pipe 6 and the outlet pipe 14 have external threaded interfaces on the exposed parts of the housing, which improves the connection efficiency of the ozone water generator while ensuring the sealing of the connection.

[0039] like Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown in one embodiment of this application, to improve the overall structural simplicity, a water flow switch 13 is also connected between the mixing component 12 and the outlet pipe 14. The inlet pipe 6, mixing component 12, water flow switch 13, and outlet pipe 14 are straight strips. The inlet pipe 6 and outlet pipe 14 are respectively located on opposite side walls of the housing. The straight strip connection method can reduce the space occupied by the pipeline in the housing. The housing is provided with ribs for clamping the inlet pipe 6 and outlet pipe 14 respectively. For the straight strip main pipe, the resistance of the water body is reduced, and the inertial force of the water flow is utilized more effectively to promote the mixing and mass transfer process of ozone and water. The water flow switch 13 is used to detect the water flow out of the mixing component 12, which can effectively control the generation and stopping of ozone. Specifically, when the water flow at the water flow switch 13 reaches the set flow rate, the water flow switch 13 outputs a signal, and the ozone generator 8 starts to work, generating ozone and dissolving it in the water. If the water flow at the flow switch 13 stops or the flow rate is lower than the set value, the flow switch 13 will cut off the signal and stop the ozone generator 8 from producing ozone, so as to avoid wasting ozone in the absence of water or damaging the equipment.

[0040] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the housing includes a nested bottom shell 2 and a top cover 1. The main pipe, mixing component 12, and ozone generator 8 are all assembled on the bottom shell 2. The bottom shell 2 is U-shaped, and the top cover 1 also adopts a U-shaped structure, so that the bottom shell 2 and the top cover 1 are nested in an alternating manner, thereby realizing the assembly of the entire housing and improving assembly efficiency.

[0041] The bottom shell 2 is connected to a partition 10 that separates the main pipe and the ozone generator 8. The partition 10 divides the bottom shell 2 into dry and wet parts to prevent water leakage from affecting the normal operation of the ozone water machine. The dry area of ​​the bottom shell 2 is equipped with a control board 9 and an ozone generator 8. An air pump 7 is connected to the ozone generator 8. The air pump 7 pumps air into the ozone generator 8, causing the air to carry ozone to the mixing unit 12. The control board 9 is used to regulate the working status of the entire ozone generator 8, such as power adjustment, start / stop, and timer adjustment. All of the above adjustments can be achieved by burning the corresponding program to the chip on the control board 9 to realize different function adjustment methods.

[0042] To improve the overall heat dissipation effect, the top cover 1 is provided with a first mesh 4 and a second mesh 5 near the control motherboard 9 and the air pump 7, respectively, to facilitate subsequent heat dissipation or air intake. A start / stop button 3 is also installed on the top cover 1 near the control motherboard 9, which can be used to adjust the working status of the air pump 7 and the ozone generator 8.

[0043] The above description of the disclosed embodiments enables those skilled in the art to make or use this application. Various modifications to these embodiments will be readily apparent to those skilled in the art, and the general principles defined herein may be implemented in other embodiments without departing from the spirit or scope of this application. Therefore, this application is not to be limited to the embodiments shown herein, but is to be accorded the widest scope consistent with the principles and novel features disclosed herein.
