[0017] Compared with the prior art, this utility model provides a split-type, non-electric softening device, which has the following advantages:
[0018] 1. This split-type, non-electric water softening device, in order to better soften raw water, incorporates a softening component. After raw water enters the annular pipe through the raw water pipe, it then flows through branch pipes, an outlet hopper, and a filter plate into the softening tank. The filter plate prevents material from entering the outlet hopper, and the conical structure of the outlet hopper ensures that the raw water is fully sprayed onto the resin filter element. As the raw water reacts with the resin filter element, calcium and magnesium ions in the raw water are exchanged and adsorbed, while sodium ions in the resin filter element are replaced, thereby reducing the hardness of the raw water. The system, in conjunction with a central pipe, conical filter cover, outlet pipe, and one-way valve, draws out soft water through the soft water pipe. Combined with a brine tank and cover, it discharges brine into the softening tank through a brine pipe. Sodium ions enter the resin filter element from bottom to top, displacing calcium and magnesium ions. The resulting wastewater is discharged through the wastewater pipe, allowing the resin filter element to be reused. The conical structure of the conical filter cover allows brine to enter the resin filter element more quickly and effectively from bottom to top, resulting in higher softening and replacement efficiency, and thus better softening of the raw water.
[0019] 2. This split-type, non-electric water softening device incorporates auxiliary components to enhance the softening effect. Before the softening component softens the raw water, the raw water first flows through the main pipe into the PP cotton cylinder on the fixed frame. The PP cotton effectively intercepts large particulate impurities in the water, such as silt, rust, and suspended solids. Subsequently, it enters the activated carbon cylinder through the secondary pipe. The activated carbon adsorbs residual chlorine, odors, pigments, and some organic pollutants in the water. The purified raw water then enters the annular pipe through the raw water pipe for further softening, resulting in a better softening effect and protecting the components in the softening component. The feed inlet also facilitates the addition of materials to the brine tank. Attached Figure Description

[0028] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

Furthermore, the term "above" may also be used in certain circumstances to indicate a dependency or connection relationship. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of these terms in this application according to the specific circumstances.
[0030] Please see Figure 1 - Figure 7 This utility model provides a technical solution:
[0031] A split-type non-electric softening device includes an equipment box 1, a door 2 at the front end of the equipment box 1, and a pipe opening 3 at the bottom end of the equipment box 1.
[0032] In one embodiment of this utility model, a softening component 4 is provided inside the equipment box 1. The softening component 4 includes a softening tank 41, which is snapped onto the bottom surface of the equipment box 1. The softening tank 41 is filled with a resin filter element. A tank cover 42 is threaded onto the top of the softening tank 41. A raw water pipe 43 is provided outside the softening tank 41. One end of the raw water pipe 43 is fixedly connected to the top of an annular pipe 44. A branch pipe 45 is fixedly installed inside the bottom end of the annular pipe 44. A small end of a water outlet 46 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the branch pipe 45. A filter plate 47 is snapped onto the large end of the water outlet 46. In addition, there are six sets of branch pipes 45, water outlets 46, and filter plates 47. The six sets of branch pipes 45, water outlets 46, and filter plates 47 are all arranged in a circumferential array with the center of the circular cross-section of the annular pipe 44 as the array center. This allows the raw water (i.e., unsoftened hard water) to be fully sprayed onto the resin filter element. The center of the tank cover 42... A central tube 48 is fixedly installed inside. The bottom end of the central tube 48 is snapped with the small end of a conical filter cover 49. In addition, both the water outlet 46 and the conical filter cover 49 are conical in structure, which makes the softening efficiency higher. A water outlet pipe 410 is fixedly installed at the top of the central tube 48. A soft water pipe 411 is fixedly installed on the water outlet pipe 410. A one-way valve 412 is installed on the soft water pipe 411. A salt tank 413 is snapped inside the equipment box 1. The salt tank 413 is filled with brine. A box cover 414 is threaded on the top of the salt tank 413. The bottom center of the salt tank 413 is fixedly connected to the top of the brine pipe 415. The bottom of the brine pipe 415 is fixedly installed on the top of the water outlet pipe 410. A sewage pipe 416 is also fixedly installed on the water outlet pipe 410. A one-way valve 412 is installed on both the brine pipe 415 and the sewage pipe 416. In addition, the ends of the soft water pipe 411 and the sewage pipe 416 away from the water outlet pipe 410 pass through the pipe opening 3.
[0033] In this embodiment, during the raw water softening stage, the raw water entering the annular pipe 44 will flow evenly through the branch pipe 45 and out through the large end of the outlet bucket 46. The filter plate 47 can prevent materials such as the resin filter element in the softening tank 41 from entering the outlet bucket 46, ensuring smooth water flow. At the same time, the conical structure of the outlet bucket 46 allows the raw water to form a large spray area when it flows out, fully spraying it onto the resin filter element filled in the softening tank 41. After the raw water comes into contact with the resin filter element, an ion exchange reaction will occur. The resin filter element contains exchangeable sodium ions. The calcium and magnesium ions in the raw water exchange with the sodium ions in the resin filter element. The calcium and magnesium ions are adsorbed by the resin filter element, and the sodium ions are replaced into the water. As the reaction proceeds, the hardness of the raw water gradually decreases, thereby completing the softening process and converting hard water into soft water.
[0034] During the soft water discharge stage, after the raw water has been softened, the one-way valve 412 on the soft water pipe 411 is opened separately, and the pump installed on the equipment box 1 (not part of this device, so it is not shown in the figure) is turned on. The pump provides power so that the soft water in the softening tank 41 enters the central pipe 48 through the conical filter cover 49 under pressure. The conical structure of the conical filter cover 49 helps to guide the soft water smoothly into the central pipe 48. The soft water that enters the central pipe 48 is then pumped out of the equipment box 1 through the outlet pipe 410 and the soft water pipe 411 for subsequent use.
[0035] During the resin filter cartridge regeneration stage, when the amount of calcium and magnesium ions adsorbed by the resin filter cartridge reaches a certain level and the softening effect decreases, the resin filter cartridge needs to be regenerated. At this time, the one-way valve 412 on the brine pipe 415 is opened separately, and the pre-prepared brine in the brine tank 413 is discharged through the brine pipe 415 into the outlet pipe 410, then into the central pipe 48, and then discharged from bottom to top into the softening tank 41. The conical structure of the conical filter cover 49 helps to guide the brine smoothly into the interior of the softening tank 41, accelerates the ion exchange rate, and improves the softening and replacement efficiency. The brine is rich in sodium ions. Driven by the water flow, sodium ions gradually enter the resin filter element from bottom to top. The sodium ions undergo another ion exchange reaction with the calcium and magnesium ions adsorbed in the resin filter element, displacing the calcium and magnesium ions and restoring the exchange capacity of the resin filter element. Finally, the one-way valve 412 on the sewage pipe 416 is opened separately. The sewage containing impurities such as calcium and magnesium ions generated after ion exchange is discharged from the equipment box 1 through the sewage pipe 416 by another set of pumps (not part of this device, so it is not shown in the figure) installed on the equipment box 1, thereby realizing the reuse of the resin filter element.
[0036] In one embodiment of this utility model, an auxiliary component 5 is provided inside the equipment box 1. The auxiliary component 5 includes a fixing frame 51. The fixing frame 51 is fixedly installed on the bottom surface inside the equipment box 1. A PP cotton cylinder 52 and an activated carbon cylinder 53 are respectively clamped inside the top of the fixing frame 51 from bottom to top. The PP cotton cylinder 52 is filled with PP cotton, which is made of polypropylene fiber. The activated carbon cylinder 53 is filled with activated carbon, which can better purify the water before softening the raw water. In addition, one end of the main pipe 54 is fixedly installed at the input end of the PP cotton cylinder 52. The other end of the main pipe 54 passes through the pipe port 3. The two ends of the secondary pipe 55 are fixedly connected between the output end of the PP cotton cylinder 52 and the input end of the activated carbon cylinder 53. The output end of the activated carbon cylinder 53 is fixedly connected to the end of the raw water pipe 43 away from the annular pipe 44. In addition, a feed port 56 is opened on the box cover 414 to make it easier to add materials into the salt box 413.
[0037] In this embodiment, during the raw water pretreatment stage, the raw water (hard water) first flows through the main pipe 54 into the PP cotton cylinder 52 on the fixed frame 51. The PP cotton filling the PP cotton cylinder 52 is made of polypropylene fiber. Utilizing its physical interception effect, it can effectively remove impurities such as silt, rust, and suspended solids with larger particle sizes in the water. These impurities will be blocked on the surface or in the internal pores of the PP cotton, thus initially purifying the raw water. Subsequently, the raw water treated by the PP cotton cylinder 52 enters the activated carbon cylinder 53 through the secondary pipe 55. The activated carbon in the activated carbon cylinder 53 can remove residual chlorine in the water through chemical adsorption based on the adsorption principle. At the same time, it uses physical adsorption to adsorb odors, pigments, and some organic pollutants in the water, further purifying the raw water. The purified raw water enters the annular pipe 44 through the raw water pipe 43 to complete the pretreatment process and prepare for the subsequent softening work. The feed port 56 opened on the tank cover 414 facilitates the operator to add salt and other materials into the salt tank 413 to ensure a continuous supply of brine and ensure the smooth regeneration process of the resin filter element.

The specific connection methods of each part are all conventional methods such as riveting and welding that are mature in the prior art. The machinery, parts and equipment are all conventional models in the prior art, and will not be described in detail here.
[0039] The present invention has been described in detail above. However, modifications or improvements can be made to it, which will be obvious to those skilled in the art. Therefore, any modifications or improvements that do not depart from the spirit of the present invention are within the protection scope of the present invention.
