Description

Technical Field

[0001] This disclosure relates to the field of water treatment technology, and in particular to a water purification device and a water purification system. Background Technology

[0002] As people increasingly pursue healthy lifestyles, their awareness of healthy drinking water is also gradually increasing. The water purifier market is seeing a surge in water purifiers that retain minerals. However, when these purifiers encounter raw water with high hardness (i.e., a high concentration of calcium and magnesium ions), the amount of retained minerals in the water also increases. When heated, this purified mineral water is prone to developing excessive limescale in the water tank. Simultaneously, untreated raw water will also develop limescale after heating in the tank, affecting water quality. Some of this limescale will flow out through the drinking spout, impacting drinking water health and leading to user complaints. Limescale in the water tank will adhere to the heating element, gradually corroding it over time, eventually rendering it unusable and unable to heat water. Furthermore, cleaning limescale is a tedious process, negatively impacting the customer experience. Utility Model Content

[0056] Example 1

[0057] This embodiment provides a water purification device, applied to a hot water device 1, such as... Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the water purification device includes a purification module 2 and a purification controller 3;

[0058] Hot water device 1 includes a water tank 11 and a heating module 12, the heating module 12 being used to heat the water in the water tank 11;

[0059] Purification module 2 includes a filter 21 and an ultrasonic transmitter 22;

[0060] Filter 21 is used to filter water in water tank 11, and ultrasonic transmitter 22 is used to clean filter 21;

[0061] The purification controller 3 and the ultrasonic transmitter 22 are electrically connected, and the purification controller 3 is used to drive the ultrasonic transmitter 22 to work.

[0062] The water purification device in this embodiment includes a purification module and a purification controller; the hot water device includes a water tank and a heating module, the heating module being used to heat the water in the water tank; the purification module includes a filter and an ultrasonic transmitter; the filter is used to filter the water in the water tank to intercept limescale, effectively improving water quality and ensuring the user's drinking water health; the ultrasonic transmitter is used to clean the filter, automatically and efficiently cleaning and removing limescale from the filter, improving the user experience.

[0063] In one alternative embodiment, the filter includes a filter core and a filter housing;

[0064] The ultrasonic transmitter is mounted on the filter housing.

[0065] Specifically, the filter has a filtration precision of 5-10 micrometers.

[0066] The filter can be made of stainless steel, which has the properties of high temperature resistance and corrosion resistance.

[0067] Filters with a filtration accuracy of 5-10 microns can be called high-precision filters. The filter core of this type of filter can effectively filter out impurities in the water and intercept scale, which can effectively improve water quality.

[0068] In an alternative implementation, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the water tank 11 includes a first water tank inlet 111 and a first water tank outlet 112;

[0069] The filter 21 includes a first circulation inlet 211 and a first circulation outlet 212. The purification module 2 also includes a first electric ball valve 23, a second electric ball valve 24, a third electric ball valve 25, and a water pump 26.

[0070] One end of the first electric ball valve 23 is connected to the outlet 112 of the first water tank, and the other end is connected to the first circulation inlet 211;

[0071] One end of the second electric ball valve 24 is connected to the first circulation outlet 212, and the other end is connected to the inlet of the water pump 26;

[0072] One end of the third electric ball valve 25 is connected to the inlet 111 of the first water tank, and the other end is connected to the outlet of the water pump 26;

[0073] The purification controller 3 is also used to drive the first electric ball valve 23, the second electric ball valve 24, the third electric ball valve 25 and the water pump 26 respectively.

[0074] Specifically, the heating module can be an electric heater.

[0075] The water purification device in this embodiment can remove limescale. The descaling process is continuous; as long as the water tank is replenished and the heating module is activated, the water pump will start. For example, the water pump can be shut off 5 minutes after each heating cycle. This delayed shutdown ensures that the filter can more effectively intercept limescale, allowing more limescale to be trapped in the filter. When the heating module is heating, the water in the tank is agitated, especially when it is about to boil. Because the water pump is constantly running, this mixture of limescale and water flows towards the filter and is intercepted and removed. This effectively intercepts calcium and magnesium ions in the water, slowing down the damage to the heating module and extending its service life.

[0076] The execution logic corresponding to the scale removal operation is as follows: When the heating module 12 heats the water in the water tank 11, the first electric ball valve 23, the second electric ball valve 24, the third electric ball valve 25 and the water pump 26 are opened. The water in the water tank 11 enters the filter 21 through the first water tank outlet 112, the first electric ball valve 23 and the first circulation inlet 211 in sequence. The filtered water enters the water tank 11 through the second electric ball valve 24, the water pump 26, the third electric ball valve 25 and the first water tank inlet 111. The opening duration can be set by the user according to the water quality.

[0077] In this embodiment, the water purification device uses an electric ball valve to open and close the water circuit. Since the ball valve has a strong anti-fouling ability, it will not be hindered by the presence of scale, thus improving the operational stability of the water purification device.

[0078] In an alternative implementation, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the water tank 11 also includes a second water tank outlet 113, and the hot water device also includes a first external drain outlet 13;

[0079] The filter 21 also includes a first sewage inlet 213 and a first sewage outlet 214; the purification module 2 also includes a fourth electric ball valve 27 and a fifth electric ball valve 28.

[0080] One end of the fourth electric ball valve 27 is connected to the outlet 113 of the second water tank, and the other end is connected to the inlet of the water pump 26.

[0081] The outlet of water pump 26 is connected to the first sewage inlet 213;

[0082] One end of the fifth electric ball valve 28 is connected to the first sewage outlet 214, and the other end is connected to the first external sewage outlet 13;

[0083] The purification controller 3 is also used to drive the fourth electric ball valve 27 and the fifth electric ball valve 28 respectively.

[0084] The water purification device in this embodiment can perform scale flushing. After the aforementioned scale removal operation is completed, the scale flushing operation can be performed. The corresponding execution logic is as follows: the fourth electric ball valve 27, the fifth electric ball valve 28, and the water pump 26 are opened, and the ultrasonic transmitter 22 is also turned on simultaneously. The water in the water tank 11 is discharged sequentially through the second water tank outlet 113, the fourth electric ball valve 27, the water pump 26, the first sewage inlet 213, the first sewage outlet 214, the fifth electric ball valve 28, and the first external sewage outlet 13, thereby flushing the scale. The duration can be preset according to the size of the water tank, the flow rate of the water pump, the liquid level in the water tank, and the water quality. For example, it can be preset to 10 seconds. The purpose is to avoid continuous water replenishment and reheating of the water tank, and to prevent excessive scale in the water tank. This process is repeated, and the scale in the water tank will gradually decrease.

[0085] In an alternative implementation, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the water tank 11 includes a third water tank outlet 114, and the hot water device also includes a second external drain outlet 14.

[0086] Purification module 2 includes a sixth electric ball valve 29;

[0087] One end of the sixth electric ball valve 29 is connected to the outlet 114 of the third water tank, and the other end is connected to the second external sewage outlet 14;

[0088] The purification controller is also used to drive the sixth electric ball valve 29.

[0089] When the hot water system is used for the first time, a simple cleaning is required, or it can be performed according to the user's actual needs. The corresponding execution logic is as follows: the sixth electric ball valve 29 is opened, allowing the water entering the water tank 11 to be discharged through the third water tank outlet 114, the sixth electric ball valve 29, and the second external drain outlet 14, thus achieving a simple cleaning process for the water tank. For example, the running time can be set to 15 minutes, and the time can be predetermined based on the size of the water tank and the inner diameter of the drain pipe.

[0090] Example 2

[0091] This embodiment provides a water purification system, such as Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the water purification system includes a hot water device 1 and the water purification device in Example 1;

[0092] The hot water device 1 also includes a temperature detection module 15, a water level detection module 16, and a water tank controller (not shown in the figure).

[0093] Temperature detection module 15 is used to detect the water temperature in water tank 11, and water level detection module 16 is used to detect the water level in water tank 11;

[0094] The water tank controller is electrically connected to the heating module 12, the temperature detection module 15 and the water level detection module 16 respectively. The water tank controller is used to drive the heating module 12, the temperature detection module 15 and the water level detection module 16 to work respectively.

[0095] In a water purification system, the water tank controller and the purification controller in the water purification device can be collectively referred to as the controller.

[0096] The water purification system of this embodiment includes a hot water device and the water purification device in Embodiment 1. The hot water device heats the water in the water tank, detects the water temperature and water level, and purifies the water while supplying hot water, thus improving the customer experience.

[0097] In an alternative implementation, such as Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the water tank 11 also includes a second water tank inlet 115 and a fourth water tank outlet 116, and the hot water device also includes a water replenishment solenoid valve 17, a hot water solenoid valve 18, an external water inlet 191 and an external water outlet 192.

[0098] One end of the water replenishment solenoid valve 17 is connected to the water inlet 115 of the second water tank, and the other end of the water replenishment solenoid valve 17 is connected to the external water inlet 191.

[0099] One end of the hot water solenoid valve 18 is connected to the outlet 116 of the fourth water tank, and the other end of the hot water solenoid valve 18 is connected to the external outlet 192.

[0100] The water tank controller is also used to drive the water supply solenoid valve 17 and the hot water solenoid valve 18 respectively.

[0101] The water purification system in this embodiment can perform water tank replenishment and user water dispensing operations. The water replenishment solenoid valve mainly controls when to replenish water to the water tank and when to stop replenishing water; the hot water solenoid valve is mainly used to control user water dispensing.

[0102] In an alternative implementation, such as Figure 2 As shown, the water level detection module 16 includes a high water level probe 161, a medium water level probe 162, and a low water level probe 163.

[0103] High water level probe 161, medium water level probe 162 and low water level probe 163 correspond to different water level detection ranges;

[0104] High water level probe 161, medium water level probe 162 and low water level probe 163 are respectively inserted into the inner cavity of water tank 11;

[0105] Heating module 12 is located below low water level probe 163;

[0106] The temperature detection module 15 is located on the side or bottom of the water tank at a preset distance from the heating module 12.

[0107] Specifically, the temperature detection module is located on the side or bottom of the water tank at a preset distance from the heating module. The preset distance can be set according to the user's needs. The temperature detection module can be higher or lower than the heating module or at the same level as the heating module to ensure that the temperature detection module can detect the water temperature in the water tank.

[0108] In this embodiment of the water purification system, the water level detection module of the hot water device includes a high-level probe, a medium-level probe, and a low-level probe. The high-level probe detects the high water level, the medium-level probe detects the medium water level, and the low-level probe detects the low water level. The water level probes can accurately and stably detect the water level. Since different water level probes correspond to different water level detection ranges, comprehensive detection of the water level in the water tank can be achieved. Because the heating module is located below the low-level probe, that is, below the low water level in the water tank, the heating module is always submerged in water, eliminating the possibility of dry burning and ensuring electrical safety.

[0109] In an alternative implementation, such as Figure 2 As shown, the high water level probe 161, the medium water level probe 162 and the low water level probe 163 are respectively set on the top of the water tank 11 and extend into the inner cavity of the water tank 11.

[0110] Specifically, the water level probes are installed in the water tank through mounting holes. The high water level probe, medium water level probe, and low water level probe are installed on the top of the water tank and extend into the inner cavity of the water tank to prevent leakage.

[0111] In an alternative implementation, such as Figure 2 As shown, the high water level probe 161, the medium water level probe 162 and the low water level probe 163 are respectively set on the side wall of the water tank 11 and extend into the inner cavity of the water tank 11.

[0112] The water level probe can also be installed on the side wall of the water tank.

[0113] In an alternative embodiment, the water tank is made of 316L stainless steel.

[0114] 316L stainless steel has excellent corrosion resistance, especially in chloride environments where it exhibits extremely high corrosion resistance and can effectively resist corrosion and high temperatures.

[0115] In an alternative embodiment, the inner cavity of the water tank is subjected to pickling and passivation treatment.

[0116] After pickling and passivation treatment, the surface of the water tank becomes a uniform silver-white, which greatly improves the corrosion resistance of stainless steel.

[0117] In an alternative implementation, the heating module is used to heat the purified mineral water.

[0118] Mineral water is beneficial to the human body, but it is more prone to limescale buildup after heating. The water purification device disclosed herein can effectively remove limescale while retaining the beneficial minerals in the water and extending the service life of the heating module.

[0119] In an alternative embodiment, a vent is also provided on the top of the water tank.

[0120] By setting up an exhaust port, the heat generated during the heating process can be discharged in a timely manner, improving the safety performance of the hot water device.

Those skilled in the art can make various changes or modifications to these embodiments without departing from the principles and essence of this disclosure, but all such changes and modifications fall within the scope of protection of this disclosure.
