Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of foamer technology, specifically to a detergent foamer and a bubble bath device. Background Technology
[0002] In existing bubble bath devices (SPA bubble machines), the detergent aerator is the core component. Its main function is to mix cleaning water, detergent, and gas into foam water to provide a rich foam effect. However, existing aerators have many problems in actual use, resulting in poor mixing of foam water and thus affecting the user experience.
[0003] First, existing foamers are often structurally simple and lack an effective mixing mechanism. After the cleaning water, detergent, and gas enter the foaming chamber, the mixing process is insufficient, resulting in uneven foam texture. This uneven foam not only produces insufficient foam but also breaks down quickly, failing to meet users' needs for rich and long-lasting foam.
[0004] Secondly, the channel design of existing aerators is unreasonable; the positions and layout of the water inlet, liquid inlet, and air inlet fail to achieve optimal mixing. For example, the distance between the water inlet and liquid inlet in some aerators is too far, making it difficult for cleaning water and detergent to mix quickly when entering the foaming chamber. Furthermore, the introduced gas fails to fully integrate with the liquid, further exacerbating the unsatisfactory foam mixing effect. This results in unstable foam output, affecting the overall user experience. Users may find that the amount of foam varies, or even that liquid flows out directly, which not only reduces the product's practicality but also impacts user satisfaction.
[0005] In summary, the existing detergent foamers in SPA bubble machines have significant shortcomings in terms of mixing effect and output stability. These problems seriously affect the user experience and urgently need to be improved. Utility Model Content
[0006] This invention provides a detergent foamer and a bubble bath device, aiming to improve at least one of the above-mentioned technical problems.
[0007] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model provides a detergent foamer, which includes a housing assembly and a foaming assembly.
[0008] The housing assembly is provided with a foaming chamber, and a water inlet, a liquid inlet, an air inlet, and an outlet communicating with the foaming chamber; wherein, the water inlet is suitable for the inflow of clean water; the liquid inlet is suitable for the inflow of a mixed solution of water and detergent; and the air inlet is suitable for the inflow of gas.
[0009] The foaming assembly includes a plurality of spaced-apart pads and a plurality of foaming filters; the foaming assembly is disposed in the foaming chamber and is capable of mixing the mixed solution and the gas into foam water;
[0010] The water inlet, the liquid inlet, and the air inlet are located at one end of the foaming assembly;
[0011] The output port is located at the other end of the foaming component.
[0012] In an optional embodiment, the housing assembly is provided with a water passage, a liquid inlet passage, and an air inlet passage parallel to each other along its length.
[0013] The water passage extends through the housing assembly. The diameter of the water passage increases on one side of the liquid inlet passage and the air inlet passage to form the foaming chamber that connects the liquid inlet passage and the air inlet passage.
[0014] The liquid inlet is positioned perpendicular to the length of the housing assembly and is connected to the liquid inlet channel.
[0015] The air inlet is positioned perpendicular to the length of the housing assembly and is connected to the air intake channel.
[0016] In an optional embodiment, the pad is constructed as a ring structure, and the inner diameters of the multiple pads in the direction from the inlet to the outlet are spaced apart by alternating large and small diameters.
[0017] In an optional embodiment, the housing assembly includes a bubbler upper shell, a bubbler lower shell detachably engaged with the bubbler upper shell, and a sealing ring engaged between the bubbler upper shell and the bubbler lower shell. The foaming chamber is formed between the bubbler upper shell and the bubbler lower shell.
[0018] In one optional embodiment, the upper shell of the aerator is provided with the water inlet, the liquid inlet, and the air inlet. The lower shell of the aerator is provided with the output port.

[0022] In an optional embodiment, the number of pads and foaming filters is 11.
[0023] This application also provides a bubble bath device, which includes the aforementioned "washing liquid aerator" and a water outlet connected to the output port of the washing liquid aerator.
[0024] By adopting the above technical solution, the present invention can achieve the following technical effects:
[0025] This invention's detergent aerator significantly improves the mixing effect and stability of foamed water through optimized structural design. Multiple spaced pads and a foaming filter work together to increase the contact area between cleaning water, detergent, and gas, effectively promoting thorough mixing of the multiphase fluids. This results in uniformly distributed and moderately dense bubbles, significantly improving the fineness and durability of the foamed water.
[0026] In addition, the inner ring of the pad is set with alternating large and small diameters to create an alternating pipe diameter change, which continuously disturbs the fluid. This increases the chances of mixing between substances, improves the mixing uniformity, and increases the number of bubbles in the output mixed water compared to a single pipe diameter change.

[0033] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this utility model, not all of them. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model. Therefore, the following detailed description of the embodiments of this utility model provided in the accompanying drawings is not intended to limit the scope of the claimed utility model, but merely represents selected embodiments of this utility model. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.
[0034] Example 1, by Figures 1 to 4 As shown in the figure, this utility model embodiment provides a detergent foamer, which includes a housing assembly and a foaming assembly.
[0035] The housing assembly is provided with a foaming chamber, and a water inlet 2, a liquid inlet 4, an air inlet 1, and an outlet 8 communicating with the foaming chamber. Specifically, the water inlet 2 is suitable for receiving clean water; the liquid inlet 4 is suitable for receiving a mixed solution of water and detergent; and the air inlet 1 is suitable for receiving gas.
[0036] The foaming assembly includes a plurality of spaced-apart pads 5 and a plurality of foaming filters 6. Preferably, there are 11 pads 5 and 11 foaming filters 6. The foaming assembly is disposed in the foaming chamber. The water inlet 2, the liquid inlet 4, and the air inlet 1 are located at one end of the foaming assembly. The outlet 8 is located at the other end of the foaming assembly. The foaming assembly is capable of mixing the mixed solution and the gas to form foam water;
[0037] It is understood that when clean water needs to be output, the supply of air at air inlet 1 and the supply of mixed solution at liquid inlet 4 can be stopped. This stopping of supply is achieved through an external device, and this utility model does not specifically limit it.
[0038] This invention's detergent aerator significantly improves the mixing effect and stability of foamed water through optimized structural design. Multiple spaced pads 5 and the foaming filter 6 work together to increase the contact area between the mixed solution and the gas, effectively promoting thorough mixing of the multiphase fluid. This results in uniformly distributed and moderately dense bubbles, significantly improving the fineness and durability of the foamed water.
[0039] Based on the above embodiments, in an optional embodiment of the present invention, such as... Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the housing assembly has a water passage 11, a liquid inlet channel 10, and an air inlet channel 9 arranged parallel to each other along its length. The water passage 11 penetrates the housing assembly. The diameter of the water passage 11 increases on one side of the liquid inlet channel 10 and the air inlet channel 9 to form the foaming chamber connecting the liquid inlet channel 10 and the air inlet channel 9. The liquid inlet 4 is arranged perpendicular to the length direction of the housing assembly and is connected to the liquid inlet channel 10. The air inlet 1 is arranged perpendicular to the length direction of the housing assembly and is connected to the air inlet channel 9.
[0040] Specifically, the mixed solution and gas can enter the foaming chamber through their respective independent channels and mix within the chamber. This design makes the mixing process more stable, and the output of foamed water is no longer affected by the mutual interference between water flow, liquid flow, and air flow. The foamed water output of this aerator is more stable, and there is no direct liquid outflow, which greatly improves product reliability and user satisfaction.
[0041] Based on the above embodiments, in an optional embodiment of the present invention, such as... Figures 2 to 4 As shown, the housing assembly includes an upper aerator housing 3, a lower aerator housing 13 detachably connected to the upper aerator housing 3, and a sealing ring 7 connected between the upper aerator housing 3 and the lower aerator housing 13. A foaming chamber is formed between the upper aerator housing 3 and the lower aerator housing 13. Preferably, the upper aerator housing 3 is provided with a water inlet 2, a liquid inlet 4, and an air inlet 1. The lower aerator housing 13 is provided with an outlet 8.
[0042] The detachable housing assembly facilitates maintenance and cleaning. The upper and lower housings of the aerator are connected by a sealing ring 7 and are detachable, allowing for easy opening of the aerator to clean internal impurities or replace damaged parts, thereby extending the product's lifespan and reducing maintenance costs.
[0043] Based on the above embodiments, in an optional embodiment of the present invention, such as... Figures 2 to 4 As shown, the foaming filter 6 has a plate-like structure. The pad 5 has an annular structure, and its two sides are provided with abutting surfaces 12 that abut against the foaming filter 6. Preferably, the pad 5 is a rubber gasket. The thickness of the pad 5 is greater than the thickness of the foaming filter 6. In this embodiment, the thickness of the pad 5 is 30 times that of the foaming filter 6, so as to form a mixing space between the foaming filters 6 for mixing the solution.
[0044] By using a rubber gasket as the pad 5, and setting its thickness to 30 times that of the foaming filter 6, an ideal mixing space is formed inside the bubbler. The mixed solution and gas are thoroughly mixed as they pass through the foaming filter 6, forming fine foam water. This structure improves the quality of the foaming effect.
[0045] Based on the above embodiments, in an optional embodiment of the present invention, such as... Figure 4 As shown, the pad 5 is constructed in a ring shape, and the inner diameters of the multiple pads 5 in the direction from the water inlet 2 to the outlet 8 are arranged with alternating large and small diameters.
[0046] Setting the inner diameter intervals of pad 5 to be large and small, so that the internal pipe diameter increases and decreases regularly, helps to make the mixing more uniform. This structure can effectively promote fluid turbulence. When the mixed solution and gas flow in the bubbler, the change in pipe diameter will change the fluid velocity and pressure. Where the pipe diameter is smaller, the fluid velocity is faster and the pressure is lower, forming a local high-speed turbulence region, which can make the contact between the three substances more sufficient. When the pipe diameter is larger, the fluid velocity is slower and the pressure is higher, which will generate backflow and vortices, further disturbing the fluid and promoting their mixing and diffusion. This continuous alternation of pipe diameter changes continuously disturbs the fluid, which increases the mixing opportunities between substances and improves the mixing uniformity more than a single change in pipe diameter. This structure can also optimize the distribution of substances. Different pipe diameters can also adjust the flow path and distribution state of the fluid. In the area with a larger pipe diameter, the fluid has more space, which allows substances that were originally concentrated in the area with a smaller pipe diameter to disperse. When the pipe diameter decreases, the dispersed substances are squeezed and mixed again, which helps to break up any possible agglomeration areas and make the mixed solution and gas more evenly distributed in the foaming chamber, thereby achieving a more uniform mixing effect. This is consistent with the design concept of using the pad 5 and the foaming filter 6 to promote mixing in the claims.
[0047] Example 2: This application also provides a bubble bath device, which includes the "washing liquid aerator" described in Example 1, and a water outlet component connected to the output port 8 of the washing liquid aerator via a pipe. In this example, the water outlet component is a shower head. In other examples, the water outlet component can be a water pipe or other water outlet structure, and this utility model does not specifically limit it in this regard.
[0048] The bubble bath device directly connects the detergent aerator output port 8 from Embodiment 1 to the shower head. When foamy water is needed, it flows out evenly, eliminating the need for users to add extra detergent or manually stir during use, and eliminating concerns about uneven mixing, greatly improving convenience and comfort.
[0049] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model and is not intended to limit the utility model. Various modifications and variations can be made to this utility model by those skilled in the art. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, or improvements made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
