Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of hydrogen mixing technology, and more specifically, to a hydrogen mixing water circuit and beverage preparation equipment. Background Technology
[0002] Hydrogen-rich water, also known as hydrogen-rich water, is produced by injecting hydrogen gas into water, causing some of the hydrogen to dissolve. The production of hydrogen-rich water involves electrolyzing pure or distilled water in an electrolytic cell to produce hydrogen and oxygen, while the oxygen is discharged and the hydrogen dissolves in the water. Currently, to increase the hydrogen content of hydrogen-rich water, a hydrogen mixing device can be installed in the outlet pipeline. When hydrogen-rich water flows through the mixing device, it is pressurized within the chamber, causing the hydrogen water to re-mix with the hydrogen gas.
[0003] However, because hydrogen is mixed only through the space of the chamber, the uniformity of the hydrogen-water mixture is poor, resulting in poor mixing efficiency. Utility Model Content
[0004] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to provide a hydrogen mixing water circuit with better hydrogen fusion effect, which addresses the shortcomings of the prior art, which has poor mixing efficiency due to the poor uniformity of hydrogen and water mixing caused by only mixing hydrogen through the space of the chamber.
[0005] The technical solution adopted by this utility model to solve its technical problem is: constructing a hydrogen-mixed water circuit, comprising:
[0006] At least one water path, which is used for the introduction / exit of hydrogen-water.
[0007] At least one hydrogen mixing device, the input end of which is connected to the output end of the water circuit, is used to dissolve hydrogen in the water circuit into the hydrogen water;
[0008] A flow-disrupting component is provided on the input side of the hydrogen mixing device, and the flow-disrupting component is detachably connected to the hydrogen mixing device.
[0009] The turbulence-disrupting component has multiple through holes with irregularly arranged diameters.
[0010] In some embodiments, the hydrogen mixing device includes at least an input chamber, an output chamber, and a channel for connecting the input chamber and the output chamber.
[0011] The inner diameter of the input cavity of the hydrogen mixing device narrows along the channel direction.
[0012] The inner diameter of the output cavity widens along the direction of the hot water pipe or the warm water pipe.
[0013] In some embodiments, the turbulence-disrupting component is disposed within the input cavity, and the outer wall of the turbulence-disrupting component is detachably disposed from the inner wall of the input cavity.
[0014] In some embodiments, the water circuit includes at least hot water pipes and warm water pipes.
[0015] The output end of the hot water pipeline is connected to the input end of a hydrogen mixing device.
[0016] The output end of the warm water pipeline is connected to the input end of another hydrogen mixing device.
[0017] In some embodiments, at least one heater is provided on the hot water pipeline for heating the incoming hydrogen-water mixture, and the heater is located downstream of the hydrogen mixing device.
[0018] In some embodiments, a water tank is also included, which stores hydrogen water or pure water to be electrolyzed.
[0019] In some embodiments, a force-bearing component is provided in the middle section of the water storage tank, which divides the water storage tank into an air storage chamber and a water storage chamber.
[0020] The gas storage chamber is located at the lower end of the force-bearing component, and the water storage chamber is located at the upper end of the force-bearing component.
[0021] When hydrogen water is injected into the water storage chamber, the force-receiving component moves along the direction of the gas storage chamber.
[0022] When the water storage chamber outputs hydrogen water to the water path, the force-bearing component moves along the direction of the water storage chamber to disturb the hydrogen water in the water storage chamber.
[0023] In some embodiments, an electrolysis unit is provided at the bottom of the water storage tank, which is used to electrolyze the incoming pure water to form hydrogen water.
[0024] In some embodiments, an aeration assembly is provided in the water storage tank, which can dissolve hydrogen gas in the water in the water storage tank to form hydrogen water.
[0025] Secondly, a beverage preparation device includes at least a dispensing module, an electrical control module, and any of the aforementioned hydrogen-water mixing circuits, wherein the hydrogen-water mixing circuits can provide hydrogen water to the beverage to be prepared, so as to form a hydrogen beverage.
[0026] The hydrogen-water mixing circuit described in this invention includes a water path for introducing / exporting hydrogen-water and at least one hydrogen mixing device. The input side of the hydrogen mixing device is equipped with a flow-dispersing component, which has multiple through-holes with irregularly shaped diameters. The introduced hydrogen-water is divided by the flow-dispersing component and injected into its cavity, dissolving the hydrogen in the water path into the hydrogen-water, thereby improving the solubility of hydrogen in hydrogen-water. Compared with existing technologies, by incorporating at least one hydrogen mixing device in the water path, the multiple through-holes of the flow-dispersing component divide the input hydrogen-water into multiple streams, which are then converged into its input cavity for mixing and pressurization, thus increasing the hydrogen content of the output hydrogen-water, this invention effectively solves the problem of poor mixing efficiency due to poor uniformity of hydrogen-water mixing when only mixing is performed within the cavity space.

[0036] To provide a clearer understanding of the technical features, objectives, and effects of this utility model, the specific embodiments of this utility model will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0037] like Figure 1As shown, in the first embodiment of the hydrogen mixing water circuit of this utility model, the hydrogen mixing water circuit 10 includes a water storage tank (corresponding to 110a-110c), at least one water circuit (corresponding to 160 / 170) and at least one hydrogen mixing device (corresponding to 130A / 130B).
[0038] The water storage tank (corresponding to 110a-110c) has a hollow structure and is used to store pure water or hydrogen water to provide hydrogen water for the preparation of beverages.
[0039] The water path (corresponding to 160 / 170) is connected to the output channel (corresponding to 114) of the water storage tank (corresponding to 110a-110c) via a water pump (not shown), used to output the incoming hydrogen-water to the subsequent stage.
[0040] The water circuit (corresponding to 160 / 170) includes at least one hot water pipe 160 and one warm water pipe 170. The output sides of the two pipes can be connected by a solenoid valve 150. When warm water needs to be added to the hot water pipe 160, the solenoid valve 150 can be activated by the electronic control module, so that the warm water output from the warm water pipe 170 is introduced into the hot water pipe 160, thus mixing hot and warm water for beverages.
[0041] The hydrogen mixing device (corresponding to 130A / 130B) is used to divide the input hydrogen water into multiple channels, and perform hydrogen mixing and pressurization in its input chamber 130c, thereby increasing the hydrogen content of the output hydrogen water;
[0042] Specifically, at least one water path (corresponding to 160 / 170) uses a water pump (not shown) to extract hydrogen water from the water storage tank (corresponding to 110a-110c) and then supply hydrogen water to the downstream (such as the distribution module);
[0043] Furthermore, the input end of the hydrogen mixing device (corresponding to 130A / 130B) is connected to the output end of the water circuit (corresponding to 160 / 170), which is used to dissolve hydrogen in the water circuit (corresponding to 160 / 170) into hydrogen water or to dissolve hydrogen carried in hydrogen water into hydrogen water, so as to improve the solubility of hydrogen and hydrogen water.
[0044] Furthermore, such as Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, to improve the mixing effect of hydrogen-water and hydrogen gas, a flow-disrupting component 130b can be installed on the input side of the hydrogen mixing device (corresponding to 130A / 130B). The outer wall of the flow-disrupting component 130b has an external thread, which engages with the internal thread of the hydrogen mixing device (corresponding to 130A / 130B) to achieve a detachable installation.
[0045] Figure 7As shown, multiple through holes 130h are provided on the turbulence component 130b. The diameter of the through holes 130h is irregularly arranged, and an angle of 8-15 degrees is formed between the lower surface and the relatively higher surface of each through hole 130h.
[0046] When hot water pipe 160 or warm water pipe 170 enters the hydrogen-water mixing device (corresponding to 130A / 130B), the hydrogen-water is divided into multiple channels (such as 30-100 channels) by the turbulence component 130b, forming a jet-shaped jet column that impacts the inner wall of the input cavity 130c, forming a vortex water flow and water mist, which then mixes with the hydrogen gas in the hydrogen-water again, effectively improving the mixing effect of hydrogen-water and hydrogen gas.
[0047] Using this technical solution, by setting at least one hydrogen mixing device (corresponding to 130A / 130B) in the water channel (corresponding to 160 / 170), the input hydrogen-water is divided into multiple paths through the multiple through holes 130h of the turbulence component 130b, and then converged into its input chamber 130c for mixing and pressurization, so as to improve the hydrogen content of the output hydrogen-water. This can effectively solve the problem that the uniformity of hydrogen-water mixing is poor and the mixing efficiency is poor when hydrogen is mixed only through the chamber.
[0048] In some implementations, such as Figure 7 As shown, to improve the mixing effect of hydrogen water and hydrogen gas, an input chamber 130c, an output chamber 130f, and a channel 130d for connecting the input chamber 130c and the output chamber 130f can be provided in the hydrogen mixing device (corresponding to 130A / 130B).
[0049] like Figure 6 As shown, the input end 130a of the hydrogen mixing device (corresponding to 130A / 130B) is provided with an internal thread, which can be detachably connected to the hot water pipe 160 or the warm water pipe 170 through the internal thread.
[0050] Furthermore, the inner diameter of the input chamber 130c of the hydrogen mixing device (corresponding to 130A / 130B) narrows along the direction of the channel 130d, forming a funnel shape. That is, the hydrogen-water mixture impacts the inner wall of the input chamber 130c, which can effectively improve the mixing effect of hydrogen-water and hydrogen gas. Moreover, narrowing the inner diameter of the input chamber 130c along the direction of the channel 130d can effectively pressurize the hydrogen-water mixture, thereby increasing the current pressure of the hydrogen-water mixture and improving the mixing effect of hydrogen-water and hydrogen gas.
[0051] The inner diameter of the output chamber 130f widens along the direction of the hot water pipe 160 or the warm water pipe 170, forming a funnel shape. That is, the input chamber 130c narrows while the output chamber 130f widens, creating a pressure difference between the two to ensure the flow rate of the output hydrogen water.
[0052] In some implementations, to ensure convenient selection of the output hydrogen water temperature, the water path (corresponding to 160 / 170) can be set as a hot water pipe 160 and a warm water pipe 170.
[0053] The input ends of the hot water pipe 160 and the warm water pipe 170 are connected to the output channel (corresponding to 114) of the water storage tank (corresponding to 110a-110c) via a water pump. The water pump draws hydrogen water from the water storage tank (corresponding to 110a-110c) to the hot water pipe 160 and the warm water pipe 170.
[0054] The output end of the hot water pipe 160 is connected to the input end of a hydrogen mixing device (corresponding to 130A) to input the extracted hydrogen water into the input chamber 130c of the hydrogen mixing device (corresponding to 130A).
[0055] The output end of the warm water pipeline 170 is connected to the input end of another hydrogen mixing device (corresponding to 130B), and the extracted hydrogen water is input into the input chamber 130c of the other hydrogen mixing device (corresponding to 130B).
[0056] In some implementations, such as Figure 1 As shown, to improve the drinking experience, at least one heater 120 can be installed on the hot water pipe 160. The heater 120 is a sealed cavity with a certain pressure resistance (e.g., 0.3-0.5 MPa) and can be made of stainless steel or ABS.
[0057] The input end of the heater 120 is connected to the output channel (corresponding to 114) of the water storage tank (corresponding to 110a-110c) via a water pump. The water pump draws hydrogen water from the water storage tank (corresponding to 110a-110c) to the heater 120, heats the hydrogen water, and then outputs it to a hydrogen mixing device (corresponding to 130A) for hydrogen mixing.
[0058] The heater 120 is installed before or after a hydrogen mixing device (corresponding to 130A);
[0059] When the hydrogen mixing device (corresponding to 130A) is set in front of the heater 120, the hydrogen water drawn by the water pump is mixed and dissolved by the hydrogen mixing device (corresponding to 130A) before being fed into the heater 120 for heating.
[0060] When the hydrogen mixing device (corresponding to 130A) is installed after the heater 120, the hydrogen water drawn by the water pump is heated by the heater 120 and then fed into the hydrogen mixing device (corresponding to 130A) for hydrogen storage and mixing.
[0061] In some implementations, such as Figures 2-5 As shown, to ensure the reliability of the water supply to the equipment, a water storage tank (corresponding to 110a-110c) can be installed inside the equipment. It has an internal hollow structure and is used to store hydrogen water or pure water to be electrolyzed.
[0062] In some implementations, such as Figure 4 As shown, to ensure the hydrogen-containing capacity of the output hydrogen-water, a force-bearing component 111 can be installed in the middle section of the water storage tank (corresponding to 110b). This component can move repeatedly along the direction of force. The force-bearing component 111 divides the water storage tank (corresponding to 110b) into a water storage chamber 100a and a gas storage chamber 110b.
[0063] Specifically, a one-way valve 113 is installed in the input channel 112 of the water storage tank (corresponding to 110b), and another one-way valve 115 is installed in the output channel 114.
[0064] The air storage chamber 110b is located at the lower end of the force-bearing component 111, and the water storage chamber 100a is located at the upper end of the force-bearing component 111.
[0065] When hydrogen water is introduced into the water storage tank (corresponding to 110b) from the outside, the hydrogen water is injected into the water storage chamber 100a through the one-way valve 113. The injected hydrogen water increases the pressure in the water storage chamber 100a, which in turn moves the force-bearing component 111 along the direction of the gas storage chamber 110b, causing the injected hydrogen water to sway in the water storage chamber 100a.
[0066] When the water storage chamber 100a outputs hydrogen water to the water circuit (corresponding to 160 / 170), the one-way valve 115 is controlled to open. At this time, the pressure in the water storage chamber 100a decreases, and the force-bearing component 111 moves along the direction of the water storage chamber 100a to disturb the hydrogen water in the water storage chamber 100a, so as to ensure that the hydrogen water sloshes in the water storage chamber 100a and maintains the pressure, thereby ensuring the hydrogen-containing effect of the hydrogen water.
[0067] Among them, the force-bearing component 111 generates multiple vibrations per unit time (e.g., 20-80 vibrations per second), and its vibration frequency is related to the interval between the hydrogen water being discharged from the hydrogen water injection machine.
[0068] like Figure 8 As shown, a first inner tangent ring 112a is provided at the upper section of the input channel 112, and a second inner tangent ring 112b is provided at the lower end. The upper end of the check valve (corresponding to 113) is embedded in the first inner tangent ring 112a, and its lower end is embedded in the second inner tangent ring 112b.
[0069] The one-way valve (corresponding to 113) includes at least a plug 113a, a top ball 113b, a spring 113c, and a limit block 113d arranged sequentially.
[0070] Specifically, at least a portion of the upper surface of the plug 113a can be embedded in the input channel 112, and the outer extension of the plug 113a has a certain distance (e.g., 1-2 cm) from the first inner tangent ring 112a.
[0071] The top ball 113b is located on the lower end face of the plug 113a and abuts against one end of the spring 113c. The other end of the spring 113c abuts against the upper end face of the limiting block 113d.
[0072] The limiting block 113d has a through hole 113e. When the water pump storage chamber 100a outputs hydrogen water to the water channel (corresponding to 160 / 170), the plug 113a and the spring 113c are squeezed downward, so that the upper end face of the plug 113a is separated from the input channel 112. The hydrogen water enters the storage chamber 100a through the gap between the plug 113a and the first inner circumferential ring 112a and the through hole 113e of the limiting block 113d.
[0073] When the water pump draws hydrogen water from the water storage chamber 100a and introduces hydrogen water into the water path (corresponding to 160 / 170), the one-way valve 115 is controlled to open. The one-way valve 115 and the one-way valve 113 have the same structure and operating principle, so they will not be described in detail.
[0074] In some implementations, such as Figure 5 As shown, to ensure a continuous output of hydrogen water, an electrolysis component 116 can be installed at the bottom of the water storage tank (corresponding to 110c). The cathode of the electrolysis component 116 is disposed inside the water storage tank (corresponding to 110c) and immersed in water, while the anode is placed outside the water storage tank (corresponding to 110c). It can electrolyze the incoming pure water to form hydrogen water.
[0075] In addition, the stored pure water undergoes a water purification process through a water purification filter before entering the water storage tank (corresponding to 110c) to filter out dissolved impurities and harmful components in the water, so as to ensure the cleanliness and hygiene of drinking water.
[0076] In some implementations, such as Figure 3 As shown, to ensure the hydrogen content of the hydrogen, an aeration component 117 can be installed in the water storage tank (corresponding to 110a). One end of the aeration component 117 extends into the water body of the water storage tank (corresponding to 110a), and the other end of the aeration component 117 is connected to an external hydrogen production device or hydrogen storage tank. The hydrogen output from the hydrogen production device or hydrogen storage tank is mixed with the water body in the water storage tank (corresponding to 110a) through the aeration component 117, so that the hydrogen dissolves in the water body in the water storage tank (corresponding to 110a) to form hydrogen water.
[0077] Secondly, a beverage preparation device includes at least a dispensing module, an electrical control module, and any one of a hydrogen-water mixing circuit 10, wherein the dispensing module and the electrical control module are electrically connected, and the electrical control module is used to control the operation of the dispensing module.
[0078] Furthermore, the electronic control module is used to control the hydrogen water circuit 10 to provide hydrogen water to the beverage to be prepared or sold, so as to form a hydrogen beverage.
[0079] The beverage preparation equipment includes a menu input unit that allows users to select between hot and cold drinks for a single beverage and provides hydrogen water accordingly. The beverage menu provided by the menu input unit can include beverages made using coffee, such as espresso, Americano, cappuccino, or latte. Additionally, the beverage menu provided by the menu input unit can include beverages made using tea as a base, such as soy milk, ginseng tea, ginger tea, and green tea, and various additives and modifications can be made to the powder.
