Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of water distributor technology, specifically a quick-install water distributor. Background Technology

[0002] In modern water systems, manifolds are widely used in key areas of heating and water supply, and the reliable operation of their core component, the sealing gasket, is crucial to the stability of the system; however, there are currently many difficulties in the testing of manifold sealing gaskets.

[0003] Currently, water manifolds are mostly installed in places like kitchens, bathrooms, or equipment rooms. Kitchens are filled with oil and moisture from cooking, bathrooms are in a high-humidity environment, and equipment rooms are generally small, poorly lit, and poorly ventilated. In such complex environments, existing methods for inspecting gaskets are inadequate. Currently, they mainly rely on regular manual inspections, which is extremely inefficient. Staff need to spend a lot of time and energy, and due to environmental limitations and subjective factors, accuracy is difficult to guarantee. It is difficult to detect potential problems with the gaskets in time, let alone monitor their status in real time.

[0004] Due to a lack of effective detection methods, damage to gaskets is often difficult to detect in a timely manner. Gaskets are highly susceptible to failure due to aging, chemical corrosion, and improper installation. Damage to gaskets primarily leads to water leakage, which in homes damages furniture, flooring, and walls, increasing renovation costs; in commercial establishments, it causes electrical equipment malfunctions, disrupting normal business operations; and in industrial sectors, it damages production equipment, interrupting production processes and increasing production costs. Secondly, it disrupts the internal pressure balance of the manifold, causing abnormal water flow distribution, affecting heating and water supply efficiency, and reducing user comfort. Furthermore, continuous leakage poses serious safety hazards, such as slips and falls, electrical short circuits leading to fires, and major accidents in hospitals and factories with high safety requirements.

[0005] Therefore, we proposed a quick-install water distributor to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0006] (a) Technical problems to be solved

[0007] In view of the shortcomings of the prior art, this utility model provides a quick-install water distributor to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0008] (II) Technical Solution

[0009] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a quick-install water distributor, comprising a main pipe, branch pipes fixedly connected at equal intervals on the main pipe, branch pipes fixedly connected to the bottom of the branch pipes, and a control knob fixedly connected to the top of the main pipe.

[0010] Preferably, an upper sealing member is provided on one side of the branch pipe, a half-fastening member is fixedly connected below the upper sealing member, and a lower sealing member is fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the half-fastening member.

[0011] Preferably, the upper closure member and the semi-fastening member form an arc-shaped channel, an arc-shaped track is fixedly connected to the arc-shaped channel, and a sliding member is slidably connected to the arc-shaped track.

[0012] Preferably, the bottom of the sliding member is rotatably connected to a connecting column, a rotating wheel is fixedly connected to the connecting column, and an absorbent sponge is fixedly connected to the outer end of the connecting column.

[0013] Preferably, an absorbent rod is fixedly connected to the middle of the absorbent sponge, and a humidity sensor is fixedly connected to the end of the absorbent rod away from the absorbent sponge.

[0014] Preferably, a connecting rod is fixedly connected to the upper part of the sliding member, a movable support frame is fixedly connected to one end of the connecting rod, a cleaning member is rotatably connected to the movable support frame, a spring is fixedly connected to the inner surface of the cleaning member, and the end of the spring away from the cleaning member is fixedly connected to the movable support frame.

[0015] (III) Beneficial Effects

[0016] Compared with the prior art, this utility model provides a quick-install water distributor, which has the following advantages:

[0017] 1. This utility model, through the design of an integrated device, can effectively detect whether leakage will occur at the connection between branch pipes and sub-pipes due to damage to the rubber gasket. Once the humidity sensor detects that the sealing gasket is at risk of damage or shows signs of slight damage, an alarm will be issued in time. This timely detection action can effectively prevent problems such as furniture deformation due to moisture, floor rot, and wall mold caused by water leakage, and greatly reduce the high cost of renovation. At the same time, in commercial places, such as shopping malls and hotels, it can prevent short circuit failures of electrical equipment caused by water leakage, ensure the normal operation of lighting and air conditioning systems, and avoid economic losses caused by business interruption.

[0018] At the same time, this detection can indirectly ensure the stable operation of the manifold system and maintain pressure balance. For example, in the heating system, it ensures that hot water can be evenly distributed to each branch, ensuring that each room can receive enough heat and improving user comfort. In the water supply system, it maintains stable water pressure and avoids situations where the water pressure is too high or too low, ensuring normal water use for residents.

[0019] 2. In addition to effectively detecting whether a manifold is leaking due to gasket damage, this utility model, due to its span installation mode (installed between the main pipe and branch pipes via an upper sealing component, a semi-fastening component, and a lower sealing component), also increases the connection stability between the main pipe and branch pipes, preventing loosening. Specifically, it effectively resists loosening of pipe connections caused by water flow impact and equipment vibration. During the operation of a water system, the rapid flow of water will generate a certain impact force on the pipes, which will gradually loosen traditional connection parts over time. The presence of this detection component can greatly reduce the occurrence of the above situation. For example, in a heating system, the hot water circulation speed is relatively fast, and ordinary connection methods are prone to loosening due to water flow impact. This device can stabilize the connection between the main pipe and branch pipes, ensuring stable system operation. Attached Figure Description

[0029] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0030] Example

[0031] Please refer to Figures 1 to 6 As shown:

[0032] A quick-install water manifold includes a main pipe 1, branch pipes 2 fixedly connected at equal intervals to the main pipe 1, branch pipes 3 fixedly connected to the bottom of the branch pipes 2, a control knob 4 fixedly connected to the top of the main pipe 1, an upper sealing member 5 on one side of the branch pipes 2, a semi-locking member 6 fixedly connected below the upper sealing member 5, a lower sealing member 7 fixedly connected to the bottom of the semi-locking member 6, an arc-shaped channel 8 formed between the upper sealing member 5 and the semi-locking member 6, an arc-shaped track 9 fixedly connected to the arc-shaped channel 8, a sliding member 10 slidably connected to the arc-shaped track 9, and a connecting rod rotatably connected to the bottom of the sliding member 10. A connecting column 11 is fixedly connected to a rotating wheel 12. An absorbent sponge 13 is fixedly connected to the outer end of the connecting column 11. An absorbent rod 14 is fixedly connected to the middle of the absorbent sponge 13. A humidity sensor 15 is fixedly connected to the end of the absorbent rod 14 away from the absorbent sponge 13. A connecting rod 16 is fixedly connected to the upper part of the sliding member 10. A movable support frame 17 is fixedly connected to one end of the connecting rod 16. A cleaning member 18 is rotatably connected to the movable support frame 17. A spring member 19 is fixedly connected to the inner surface of the cleaning member 18. The end of the spring member 19 away from the cleaning member 18 is fixedly connected to the movable support frame 17.

[0033] in:

[0034] When the piston gasket is damaged, water will leak between branch pipe 2 and branch pipe 3.

[0035] Control knob 4 is mainly used to control the water flow in each branch pipe 2.

[0036] There are two of each of the upper closure component 5, the semi-fastening component 6, and the lower closure component 7, which together constitute the closure mechanism.

[0037] The slider 10 is adapted to slide with the arc-shaped track 9.

[0038] Connecting column 11 is a hollow structure.

[0039] The absorbent sponge 13 absorbs the leaking water from the pipe and then transfers it through the absorbent rod 14.

[0040] When the absorbent rod 14 transfers the leaked water, the humidity sensor 15 will detect the presence of water and issue an alert.

[0041] The connecting rod 16 is used to connect the connecting column 11 and the movable support frame 17.

[0042] Spring 19 is used for the reset of cleaning component 18.

[0043] Working principle:

[0044] In the initial state:

[0045] The upper sealing component 5, the semi-fastening component 6, and the lower sealing component 7 together form a sealing mechanism that is fastened between the branch pipe 2 and the branch pipe 3. The water-absorbing rod 14 does not absorb water. The cleaning component 18 and the water-absorbing sponge 13 are attached to the connection between the branch pipe 2 and the branch pipe 3. The spring component 19 is in a compressed state.

[0046] In use, the rotating wheel 12 in the arc-shaped channel 8 slides on the arc-shaped track 9 under the action of an external drive and supported by the sliding member 10. During the sliding, the sliding member 10 moves the movable support frame 17 through the connecting rod 16. (See attached diagram.) Figure 4 In operation, the rotating wheel 12 will move by connecting column 11, carrying water-absorbing sponge 13 and moving support frame 17, and indirectly carrying cleaning part 18 to the connection between branch pipe 2 and branch pipe 3.

[0047] Furthermore, under normal circumstances without leakage, the cleaning component 18 will wipe the connection between the branch pipe 2 and the branch pipe 3 with the assistance of the spring component 19 to ensure that the connection is clean.

[0048] If the connection between branch pipe 2 and branch pipe 3 leaks due to the sealing gasket, the water-absorbing sponge 13 will absorb the leaked water and transfer it to the humidity sensor 15 through the fixedly connected water-absorbing rod 14. After the water-absorbing rod 14 transfers the leaked water, the humidity sensor 15 will detect the presence of water and issue an early warning. The detection work is completed when the early warning work is in progress.

[0049] Furthermore, through the design of the overall device, it can effectively detect whether there will be leakage at the connection between branch pipe 2 and branch pipe 3 due to damage to the rubber gasket. Once the humidity sensor 15 detects that the sealing gasket is at risk of damage or shows signs of slight damage, it will issue an alarm in time. This timely detection action can effectively avoid problems such as furniture deformation due to moisture, floor rot, and wall mold caused by water leakage, and greatly reduce the high cost of renovation. At the same time, in commercial places, such as shopping malls and hotels, it can prevent short circuit failures of electrical equipment caused by water leakage, ensure the normal operation of lighting and air conditioning systems, and avoid economic losses caused by business interruption.

[0050] At the same time, this detection can indirectly ensure the stable operation of the manifold system and maintain pressure balance. For example, in the heating system, it ensures that hot water can be evenly distributed to each branch, ensuring that each room can receive enough heat and improving user comfort. In the water supply system, it maintains stable water pressure and avoids situations where the water pressure is too high or too low, ensuring normal water use for residents.

[0051] Furthermore, in addition to effectively detecting whether the manifold is leaking due to gasket damage, this component, due to its span installation mode—that is, installed between the main pipe 1 and the branch pipe 2 via the upper sealing component 5, the semi-fastening component 6, and the lower sealing component 7—can also increase the connection stability between the main pipe 1 and the branch pipe 2, preventing loosening. Specifically, it can effectively resist the loosening of pipe connections caused by water flow impact and equipment vibration. During the operation of the water system, the rapid flow of water will generate a certain impact force on the pipes, which will gradually loosen the traditional connection over time. The presence of this detection component can greatly reduce the occurrence of the above situation. For example, in the heating system, the hot water circulation speed is relatively fast, and ordinary connection methods are prone to loosening due to water flow impact. This device can stabilize the connection between the main pipe 1 and the branch pipe 2, ensuring the stable operation of the system.
