[0002] With the improvement of people's living standards and the rapid development of technology, consumers are constantly raising new demands for water quality and water safety. These include thoroughly addressing the irritation of public tap water to the delicate skin of women and infants, quickly repairing skin damage caused by accidental factors, and properly handling dryness and itching caused by seasonal dehydration. To solve these problems, a water magnetization device has emerged. This device involves placing a magnet in the inlet or outlet channel of a water heater to magnetize and filter the water. The magnetized water has good permeability and is easily absorbed, providing a good moisturizing effect on the deep layers of the skin.

[0003] Due to the uneven distribution of the magnetic field and insufficient interaction time in existing magnetization structures, the process of water molecule cluster breaking and recombination cannot reach the ideal state, which in turn leads to a decrease in the water generation rate of small molecule clusters. Utility Model Content

[0030] Exemplary embodiments will now be described more fully with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, these exemplary embodiments can be implemented in many forms and should not be construed as limited to the embodiments set forth herein; rather, these embodiments are provided so that the present invention will be thorough and complete, and will fully convey the concept of the exemplary embodiments to those skilled in the art. The same reference numerals in the drawings denote the same or similar structures, and therefore their detailed description will be omitted.

[0031] The terms “a,” “one,” “the,” and “the” are used to indicate the existence of one or more elements / components / etc.; the terms “including” and “having” are used to indicate an open-ended meaning of inclusion and that other elements / components / etc. may exist in addition to the listed elements / components / etc.

[0032] like Figure 1-7 As shown, a water flow magnetizer according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a mounting part 1 and a magnet 2.

[0033] like Figure 3 , 4 As shown in Figures 6 and 7, the mounting section 1 has multiple magnetic component mounting cavities 121 and multiple interconnected flow guiding cavities 122. The magnetic component mounting cavities 121 and flow guiding cavities 122 are arranged alternately to improve the uniformity of the magnetic field.

[0034] Two adjacent flow guiding cavities 122 guide the water flow in opposite directions, first and second, respectively. Multiple flow guiding cavities 122 together form a meandering water flow channel to extend the path of the water flow channel and increase the magnetic field residence time.

[0035] The number of magnets 2 is adapted to the number of magnetic component mounting cavities 121, the structure of magnets 2 is adapted to the structure of magnetic component mounting cavities 121, and magnets 2 are installed in magnetic component mounting cavities 121.

[0036] For example, such as Figure 3 , 4 As shown in Figure 7, when there are three flow guiding cavities 122, the three flow guiding cavities 122 are respectively labeled as the first flow guiding cavity 122, the second flow guiding cavity 122 and the third flow guiding cavity 122. The water flows through the first flow guiding cavity 122, the second flow guiding cavity 122 and the third flow guiding cavity 122 in sequence and flows out from the third flow guiding cavity 122. The first flow guiding cavity 122 is configured to guide the water flow in the first direction, the second flow guiding cavity 122 is configured to guide the water flow in the second direction, and the third flow guiding cavity 122 is configured to guide the water flow in the first direction.

[0037] The water flow magnetizer of this invention is installed on the inlet or outlet of a water heater. When water flows through the first guide cavity, the magnetic field lines formed by the two adjacent magnets 2 cut the water molecules in the first guide cavity 122 for the first time. When water flows from the first guide cavity 122 into the second guide cavity 122, the magnetic field lines formed by the two adjacent magnets 2 cut the water molecules in the second guide cavity 122 for the second time. When water flows from the second guide cavity 122 into the third guide cavity 122, the magnetic field lines formed by the two adjacent magnets 2 cut the water molecules in the third guide cavity 122 for the third time. After multiple cuts, a large number of nano water clusters are generated, thereby increasing the generation rate of small molecule cluster water and effectively retaining the trace elements and minerals beneficial to the human body in the original water.

[0038] Of course, the number of guide cavities 122 is not limited to three, and those skilled in the art can choose the number of guide cavities 122 according to actual needs.

[0039] like Figure 2 As shown, in a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the magnet 2 is a permanent magnet block. Compared with electromagnets or other magnetic components, permanent magnet blocks have the advantages of simple structure and stable magnetic performance.

[0040] like Figure 2 As shown, in a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the mounting part 1 includes a housing 11 and an inner core tube 12.

[0041] The housing 11 is cylindrical, and water inlet 111 and water outlet 112 are respectively provided at both ends of the housing 11.

[0042] The inner core tube 12 is disposed inside the housing 11. The magnetic component mounting cavity 121 and the flow guiding cavity 122 are both located on the inner core tube 12. The water inlet of the flow guiding cavity 122 corresponds to the water inlet interface 111, so that one end of the water pipe 3 can be inserted into the cavity of the housing 11 through the water inlet interface 111 and communicate with the water inlet 1221 of the flow guiding cavity 122. The water outlet of the flow guiding cavity 122 is connected to the water outlet interface 112.

[0043] For example, the inlet 1221 of the first flow guide cavity 122 corresponds to the inlet 111 of the shell 11, and the outlet of the third flow guide cavity 122 on the inner core tube 12 corresponds to or is connected to the outlet 112 of the shell 11.

[0044] Of course, one end of the water pipe 3 is not limited to being inserted into the cavity of the housing 11. For example, one end of the water pipe 3 can also be connected to the water inlet 111. Those skilled in the art can choose the connection method between the water pipe 3 and the water flow magnetizer according to actual needs.

[0045] In a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the flow guiding cavity 122 is formed by the shell 11 and the inner core tube 12. Alternatively, all the flow guiding cavities 122 are independently formed on the inner core tube 12; or as... Figure 7 As shown, two of the flow guide cavities 122 are formed by the shell 11 and the inner core tube 12, while the other flow guide cavity 122 is independently opened on the inner core tube 12. Those skilled in the art can choose the structure of the flow guide cavity 122 according to actual needs.

[0046] like Figure 1 , 3 As shown in Figures 4, 6, and 7, in a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the inner core tube 12 has multiple strip grooves on its sidewall, the sidewall of the inner core tube 12 abuts against the inner sidewall of the shell 11, and the guide cavity 122 is formed by the strip grooves and the inner sidewall of the shell 11.

[0048] like Figure 2 , 5 As shown, in a preferred embodiment of this utility model, a water channel 113 is provided on the inner wall of the shell 11. One end of two adjacent guide chambers 122 is connected through the water channel 113. The water channel 113 is configured to allow water flow to change from a first direction to a second direction. When the inner core tube 12 is installed in place, the outlet of the first guide chamber and the inlet of the second guide chamber are both connected to the water channel 113, allowing water in the first guide chamber to enter the second guide chamber through the water channel 113.

[0049] like Figure 3 , 5 As shown in Figure 6, in a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the inner core tube 12 has a water passage hole 123 at the other end of the flow guiding cavity 122. The other ends of two adjacent flow guiding cavities 122 are connected through the water passage hole 123. The water passage hole 123 is configured to allow water flow to change from the second direction to the first direction. For example, the outlet of the second flow guiding cavity and the inlet of the third flow guiding cavity are respectively connected to the two ends of the water passage hole 123, so that the water flow in the second flow guiding cavity enters the third flow guiding cavity through the water passage hole 123, and the outlet of the third flow guiding cavity is connected to an external water pipe through the water outlet interface 112.

[0050] like Figure 2 , 5As shown, in a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the cavity of the shell 11 has a step 114, and the water channel 113 is located on the step 114. When the inner core tube 12 is installed in place, one end of the inner core tube 12 abuts against the step 114, thereby limiting the inner core tube 12. Furthermore, the orthographic projections of the first and second flow guiding cavities 122 both overlap with the orthographic projection of the water channel 113. For example, the orthographic projection of the water channel 113 is semi-circular, and the orthographic projection of the flow guiding cavity 122 is fan-shaped.

[0051] like Figure 3 As shown, in a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the magnetic component mounting cavity 121 is a semi-closed cavity with an opening at one end. When the inner core tube 12 is installed in place, the opening end of the magnetic component mounting cavity 121 of the inner core tube 12 abuts against the step 114. The step 114 closes the cavity of the magnetic component mounting cavity 121, thereby fixing the magnet 2.

[0052] like Figure 1 , 5 As shown, in a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the mounting part 1 further includes a first annular sleeve 13 and a sealing gasket 14. The outer annular surface of the first annular sleeve 13 has a first external thread, the inner annular surface of the first annular sleeve 13 has an annular step, the water inlet 111 has a first internal thread, the first annular sleeve 13 is detachably installed in the water inlet 111, and the sealing gasket 14 is disposed in the first annular sleeve 13. When the first annular sleeve 13 is installed in place, one side of the sealing gasket 14 abuts against the annular step, and the other side of the sealing gasket 14 abuts against the end face of the inner core tube 12 facing the water inlet 111, so that the first annular sleeve 13, the sealing gasket 14 and the step 114 together seal and fix the inner core tube 12 in the housing 11.

[0053] like Figure 1 , 5 As shown, in a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the inner core tube 12 has an annular insertion part 124 at one end facing the water inlet interface 111. The annular insertion part 124 surrounds the water inlet 1221 of the first guide cavity. The sealing gasket 14 is annular and is sleeved on the annular insertion part 124 to seal the mounting part 1 and prevent water leakage.

[0054] Preferably, the first annular sleeve 13 also has a second internal thread, which is used to connect the connector of the water heater or the tap water pipe.

[0055] like Figure 1 , 5As shown, in a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the mounting part 1 further includes a second annular sleeve 15. The inner wall of the second annular sleeve 15 has a third internal thread, and the outer wall of the second annular sleeve 15 has a second external thread. The housing 11 has a hollow columnar connector at one end facing the water outlet 112. The columnar connector has a third external thread.

For example, when there is only one water flow magnetizer, the inlet port 111 of the water flow magnetizer is detachably connected to the hot water outlet connector of the water heater, and the outlet port 112 is connected to the water pipe of the shower head; or the outlet port 112 of the water flow magnetizer is connected to the inlet connector of the water heater, and the inlet port 111 is connected to the tap water.

[0057] When there are two water flow magnetizers, the two water flow magnetizers are installed on the hot water outlet and the water inlet of the water heater, respectively.

[0058] The water heater of this invention uses the aforementioned water flow magnetizer, which improves the uniformity of the magnetic field distribution, prolongs the time the magnetic field acts on the water flow, and thus increases the generation rate of small molecule cluster water.
