Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of water treatment technology, and in particular to a soft water treatment device. [Background Technology]

[0002] In the process of home adoption, industrial-grade water softening systems present several problems. Their equipment is typically bulky, making installation difficult in residential cabinets or narrow pipe shafts, and the complex piping layout further encroaches on limited space. Furthermore, the systems consume excessive energy and salt, requiring high-powered water pumps, which significantly increases household electricity costs. Finally, maintenance is complex; for example, replacing the resin requires specialized tools to disassemble the flange structure. The use of softening systems is also limited by environmental conditions; the lack of suitable power and drainage facilities on-site, as well as harsh operating environments, all render industrial-grade water softening systems unsuitable for residential use. [Utility Model Content]

[0003] To address the problem that existing water softening systems cannot be used in home applications, this utility model provides a water softening treatment device. The device includes a housing assembly and a working module, with the working module located within the housing assembly. The housing assembly includes an inner housing and an outer housing.

[0004] The housing assembly also includes a housing cover connected to the inner housing on the side away from the outer housing, and a water passage assembly located between the housing cover and the inner housing and connecting the opening and the valve body assembly;

[0005] The valve body assembly is provided with a first outlet and a first inlet on the side away from the tank. The first outlet and the first inlet are respectively connected to the interior of the valve body assembly. The water circuit assembly is connected to the side of the valve body assembly adjacent to the first outlet and the first inlet. External water flows into the valve body assembly through the first inlet, flows into the tank through the water circuit assembly, and then flows into the valve body assembly from the tank through the water circuit assembly and flows out from the first outlet.

[0006] The shell assembly is provided with a clearance window, and the first water inlet and the first water outlet are placed inside the clearance window, passing through the inner shell and the outer shell in sequence before being exposed.

[0007] Preferably, the outer cavity and the inner cavity are arranged side by side and separated by the inner shell. When the shell assembly is placed vertically on the horizontal plane, the tank and valve body assemblies in the outer cavity and the inner cavity are perpendicular to the horizontal plane, and the opening is located at the end of the tank away from the horizontal plane.

[0008] Preferably, the inner cavity includes a first cavity and a second cavity connected together.

[0012] Preferably, the water circuit assembly includes a first adapter, a second adapter, and a water supply pipe. The first adapter is located on the opening. The valve body assembly also has a second outlet and a second inlet. The second adapter connects the second outlet and the second inlet. The two ends of the water supply pipe are connected to the first adapter and the second adapter, respectively. External water flows into the valve body assembly through the first inlet and out of the valve body assembly through the second outlet. Then, it flows into the tank through the second adapter, the water supply pipe, and the first adapter in sequence. The water in the tank flows through the first adapter, the water supply pipe, and the second adapter in sequence. After flowing into the valve body assembly through the second inlet, it flows out from the first outlet.

[0016] Compared with the prior art, the water softening equipment provided by this utility model has the following advantages:

[0017] 1. The water softening equipment provided by this utility model consists of a shell assembly and a working module. The working module is located inside the shell assembly, forming a movable water softening equipment that is easy to install and disassemble, improving ease of use. The shell assembly includes an inner shell and an outer shell. The working module consists of a tank, a water circuit assembly, and a valve assembly. The outer shell is fitted over the inner shell, forming an outer cavity and an inner cavity. The tank and valve assembly are located in these two cavities respectively. By designing the structure of the inner and outer shells, the working module inside the equipment is effectively protected. At the same time, the arrangement of the inner and outer cavities makes reasonable use of space, making the equipment structure more compact and smaller, more suitable for home use. The tank has an opening at one end, extending through the inner shell and exposed. The water circuit assembly is located on the side of the inner shell away from the outer shell, connecting the opening and the valve assembly. The cover is connected to the side of the inner shell away from the outer shell, covering the working module on that side. This allows for full utilization of the internal space of the water softening equipment. The working module is rationally arranged within a limited space, achieving miniaturization of the water softening equipment, making it more suitable for small locations such as homes or shops.

[0018] 2. In this utility model, the outer cavity and the inner cavity are arranged side by side and separated by the inner shell. When the shell assembly is placed vertically on the horizontal plane, the tank and valve assembly in the outer cavity and the inner cavity are perpendicular to the horizontal plane, and the opening is located at the end of the tank away from the horizontal plane. This allows the tank and valve assembly to be perpendicular to the horizontal plane when the equipment is placed vertically. This design not only helps the equipment to operate stably, but also effectively reduces the footprint of the equipment.

[0019] 3. The inner cavity of this utility model includes a first cavity and a second cavity connected together. The working module also includes a salt tank assembly, one end of which is connected to the end of the valve body assembly facing the horizontal plane. The valve body assembly is placed in the first cavity, and the salt tank assembly is placed in the second cavity. This layout makes the internal structure of the equipment more reasonable and the connection between the valve body assembly and the salt tank assembly tighter, thereby improving the overall stability and durability of the equipment.

[0020] 4. In this utility model, the second cavity is located below the first cavity, and the opening of the second cavity is located on the bottom surface of the first cavity. The second cavity extends in a direction perpendicular to the bottom surface of the first cavity. Since the length of the valve body assembly is usually less than the length of the tank, there is unused space below the first cavity where the valve body assembly is placed. This design makes fuller use of the internal space of the equipment and avoids the problem of the equipment being too long or too wide caused by all components in the working module being arranged in a single row.

[0021] 5. In this invention, the sum of the widths of the first and second cavities is less than or equal to the width of the tank. This design not only makes the equipment structure more compact but also further reduces its size, making it more suitable for home use. At the same time, this design also makes the tank easier to install and disassemble, improving the maintainability of the equipment.

[0022] 6. The brine tank assembly of this utility model includes a brine tank, a straight pipe, and a curved pipe. The straight pipe connects to the brine tank and is placed in the second chamber, while the curved pipe is placed in the first chamber and connects to the straight pipe and the valve assembly. A filter tank is provided at the bottom of the second chamber corresponding to the brine tank position. The filter tank collects brine or other impurities seeping from the brine tank, preventing them from flowing directly into other parts of the equipment, thus ensuring the normal operation of the equipment and the purity of the water. Furthermore, the filter tank facilitates regular cleaning and maintenance by the user, improving the reliability and service life of the equipment.

[0023] 7. The water circuit assembly of this utility model includes a first adapter, a second adapter, and a water supply pipe. The first adapter is located at the opening, and the valve body assembly also has a second outlet and a second inlet. The second adapter connects the second outlet and the second inlet. The two ends of the water supply pipe are respectively connected to the first adapter and the second adapter. The adapters make the connection between the water supply pipe, the valve body assembly, and the tank more stable, ensuring stable water flow in the soft water system and preventing water leakage. At the same time, by adjusting the angle, position, or shape of the adapters, different spatial layouts and usage requirements can be met, improving the flexibility and adaptability of the soft water system.

[0024] 8. The bottom of the outer shell of this utility model is provided with a first limiting groove, and the bottom of the tank is placed in the first limiting groove. This design not only stabilizes the position of the tank and prevents it from shaking or shifting during operation, but also improves the overall stability and safety of the equipment. At the same time, the setting of the first limiting groove also makes the installation and disassembly of the tank more convenient, and users can easily maintain or replace the equipment as needed.

[0025] 9. The bottom of the outer casing of this utility model is further provided with a second limiting groove. The bottom of the filter tank in the second cavity is placed within the second limiting groove. This design further stabilizes the position of the salt tank assembly, especially the filter tank, preventing it from moving or deforming during operation, ensuring normal filtration and collection of brine, and also improving the overall stability and durability of the equipment. The second limiting groove also facilitates user cleaning and maintenance of the equipment, especially cleaning the filter tank, improving the reliability and service life of the equipment.

[0026] 10. The working module of this utility model also includes a display component, which is mounted on the housing cover and electrically connected to the valve body assembly. At least a portion of the display component is exposed relative to the housing assembly. The display component can show the working status of the water softening equipment, water quality information, brine tank level, etc., allowing users to easily understand the equipment's operation and water quality status, thus improving the equipment's intelligence and user experience. Furthermore, the partially exposed design of the display component allows users to view relevant information without opening the equipment housing, making it even more convenient.

[0059] In the process of home adoption, industrial-grade water softening systems present several problems. Their equipment is typically bulky, making installation difficult in residential cabinets or narrow pipe shafts, and the complex piping layout further encroaches on limited space. Furthermore, the systems consume excessive energy and salt, requiring high-powered water pumps, which significantly increases household electricity costs. Finally, maintenance is complex; for example, replacing the resin requires specialized tools to disassemble the flange structure. The use of softening systems is also limited by environmental conditions; the lack of suitable power and drainage facilities on-site, as well as harsh operating environments, all render industrial-grade water softening systems unsuitable for residential use.

[0060] To address the issue of existing water softening systems being unsuitable for home use, please refer to the following: Figures 1-4This utility model provides a water softening device, which includes a housing assembly 2 and a working module 1, with the working module 1 disposed within the housing assembly 2. The housing assembly 2 includes an inner housing 21 and an outer housing 22. The working module 1 includes a tank 11, a water circuit assembly 12, and a valve assembly 13. The outer housing 22 is fitted onto the inner housing 21. The housing assembly 2 defines opposing outer cavities 212 and inner cavities 211. The tank 11 and the valve assembly 13 are respectively disposed in the outer cavity 212 and the inner cavity 211 (e.g., ...). Figure 5 (As shown), and one end of the tank body 11 is provided with an opening 111 and is exposed through the inner shell 21;

[0061] The housing assembly 2 also includes a housing cover 23, which is connected to the inner housing 21 on the side away from the outer housing 22. The water passage assembly 12 is disposed between the housing cover 23 and the inner housing 21 and connects the opening 111 and the valve body assembly 13.

[0062] The valve body assembly 13 is provided with a first outlet 132 and a first inlet 131 on the side away from the tank 11. The first outlet 132 and the first inlet 131 are respectively connected to the interior of the valve body assembly 13. The water passage assembly 12 is connected to the side of the valve body assembly 13 adjacent to the first outlet 132 and the first inlet 131. External water flows into the valve body assembly 13 through the first inlet 131, flows into the tank 11 through the water passage assembly 12, and then flows into the valve body assembly 13 through the water passage assembly 12 from the tank 11 and out from the first outlet 132.

[0063] The housing assembly 2 is provided with a clearance window 24. The first water inlet 131 and the first water outlet 132 are placed inside the clearance window 24 and are exposed after passing through the inner housing 21 and the outer housing 22 in sequence.

[0064] The water softening equipment consists of a shell assembly 2 and a working module 1. The working module 1 is located inside the shell assembly 2, forming a movable water softening equipment that is easy to install and disassemble, improving ease of use. The shell assembly 2 includes an inner shell 21 and an outer shell 22. The working module 1 consists of a tank 11, a water circuit assembly 12, and a valve assembly 13. The outer shell 22 is fitted over the inner shell 21, forming an outer cavity 212 and an inner cavity 211. The tank 11 and the valve assembly 13 are located within these two cavities, respectively. Through the design of the structure of the inner shell 21 and the outer shell 22, the working module 1 inside the equipment is effectively protected. The first inlet 131 and the first outlet 132 are exposed inside and outside the recessed window 24, allowing for smoother water flow. The recessed window 24 also facilitates the installation and disassembly of connecting pipes. Furthermore, the arrangement of the inner cavity 211 and the outer cavity 212 makes efficient use of space, resulting in a more compact structure, smaller size, and greater suitability for home use. Meanwhile, one end of the tank 11 is open 111 and passes through the inner shell 21 and is exposed. The water circuit assembly 12 is located between the shell cover 23 and the inner shell 21. The shell cover 23 covers the working module 1 on the side of the inner shell 21 near the shell cover 23, so that the internal space of the water softening equipment can be fully utilized. The working module 1 is reasonably arranged in a limited space, realizing the miniaturization of the water softening equipment, which can be more suitable for small places such as homes or shops.

[0065] Specifically, please refer to the following: Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 5 The outer cavity 212 and the inner cavity 211 are arranged side by side and separated by the inner shell 21. When the shell assembly 2 is placed vertically on the horizontal plane, the tank 11 and valve assembly 13 in the outer cavity 212 and the inner cavity 211 are perpendicular to the horizontal plane. The opening 111 is located at the end of the tank 11 away from the horizontal plane, so that when the equipment is placed vertically, the tank 11 and valve assembly 13 can be perpendicular to the horizontal plane. This design is not only conducive to the stable operation of the equipment, but also effectively reduces the footprint of the equipment.

[0066] Specifically, please refer to the following: Figure 5 and Figure 7 The inner cavity 211 includes a first cavity 2111 and a second cavity 2112 connected together. The working module 1 also includes a salt tank assembly 14, one end of which is connected to the end of the valve body assembly 13 facing the horizontal plane. The valve body assembly 13 is placed inside the first cavity 2111, and the salt tank assembly 14 is placed inside the second cavity 2112. This layout makes the internal structure of the equipment more reasonable, and the connection between the valve body assembly 13 and the salt tank assembly 14 is tighter, thereby improving the overall stability and durability of the equipment.

[0067] Specifically, please refer to Figure 5The second cavity 2112 is located below the first cavity 2111, and its opening is located on the bottom surface of the first cavity 2111. The second cavity 2112 extends in a direction perpendicular to the bottom surface of the first cavity 2111. Since the length of the valve body assembly is usually less than the length of the tank, there is unused space below the first cavity 2111 where the valve body assembly is placed. This design makes fuller use of the internal space of the equipment and avoids the problem of the equipment being too long or too wide caused by all components in the working module 1 being arranged in a single row.

[0068] Specifically, the sum of the widths of the first cavity 2111 and the second cavity 2112 is less than or equal to the width of the tank 11. This design not only makes the equipment structure more compact but also further reduces its size, making it more suitable for home environments. At the same time, this design also makes the tank 11 easier to install and disassemble, improving the maintainability of the equipment.

[0069] Specifically, please refer to Figure 6 The brine tank assembly 14 includes a brine tank 141, a straight pipe 143, and a bent pipe 142. The straight pipe 143 connects to the brine tank 141 and is placed inside the second cavity 2112. The bent pipe 142 is placed inside the first cavity 2111 and connects to the straight pipe 143 and the valve body assembly 13. A filter tank 2113 is provided at the bottom of the second cavity 2112 corresponding to the position of the brine tank 141. The brine tank 141 is connected to the valve body assembly 13 via the bent pipe 142. Placing the bent pipe 142 inside the first cavity 2111 reduces the volume required for the second cavity 2112, saving space and ensuring smooth delivery of the brine solution. The filter tank 2113 collects brine or other impurities seeping from the brine tank 141, preventing them from flowing directly into other parts of the equipment, thus ensuring normal operation and water purity. Furthermore, the filter tank 2113 facilitates regular cleaning and maintenance by the user, improving the reliability and service life of the equipment.

[0070] Specifically, please refer to the following: Figure 7 and Figure 8The water circuit assembly 12 includes a first adapter 121, a second adapter 122, and a water supply pipe 123. The first adapter 121 is located on the opening 111. The valve body assembly 13 is also provided with a second outlet 133 and a second inlet 134. The second adapter 122 is connected to the second outlet 133 and the second inlet 134. The two ends of the water supply pipe 123 are respectively connected to the first adapter 121 and the second adapter 122. External water flows into the valve body assembly 13 through the first inlet 131 and flows out of the valve body assembly 13 through the second outlet 133. Then, it flows into the tank 11 through the second adapter 122, the water supply pipe 123, and the first adapter 121 in sequence. The water in the tank 11 flows through the first adapter 121, the water supply pipe 123, and the second adapter 122 in sequence. After flowing into the valve body assembly 13 through the second inlet 134, it flows out from the first outlet 132. The adapter makes the connection between the water supply pipe 123, valve assembly 13, and tank 11 more stable, ensuring stable water flow in the soft water system and preventing water leakage. At the same time, by adjusting the angle, position, or shape of the adapter, different spatial layouts and usage requirements can be met, improving the flexibility and adaptability of the soft water system.

[0071] Specifically, please refer to the following: Figure 7 and Figure 8 The first adapter 121 is horizontally set at the opening 111. The first adapter 121 has a first adapter inlet channel 1211 and a first adapter outlet channel 1212 bent on it. One end of the first adapter inlet channel 1211 and the first adapter outlet channel 1212 is connected to the opening 111, and the other end faces the valve body assembly 13 and is connected to the water supply pipe 123.

[0072] The second adapter 122 is vertically mounted on the valve body assembly 13 and is located on the same side of the tank 11 as the first adapter 121. The second adapter 122 is provided with a second adapter inlet channel 1221 and a second adapter outlet channel 1222. One end of the second adapter inlet channel 1221 and the second adapter outlet channel 1222 is connected to the valve body assembly 13, and the other end is connected to the water supply pipe 123. The opening direction of the end of the first adapter inlet channel 1211 and the first adapter outlet channel 1212 connected to the water supply pipe 123 is perpendicular to the opening direction of the end of the second adapter inlet channel 1221 and the second adapter outlet channel 1222 connected to the water supply pipe 123.

[0073] This embodiment ensures that the position of the first adapter 121 does not exceed the end face of the tank 11, reducing the overall volume occupied by the working module 1 and making full use of the space around the tank 11. At the same time, the first adapter 121 is provided with a bent first adapter inlet channel 1211 and a first adapter outlet channel 1212, and the second adapter 122 is provided with a second adapter inlet channel 1221 and a second adapter outlet channel 1222. The opening direction of the first adapter inlet channel 1211 and the first adapter outlet channel 1212 connecting to the end of the water supply pipe 123 is perpendicular to the opening direction of the second adapter inlet channel 1221 and the second adapter outlet channel 1222 connecting to the end of the water supply pipe 123. This makes the required connection path between the first adapter 121 and the second adapter 122 shorter, reduces the required length of the water supply pipe 123, and makes the structure of the working module 1 more compact. The adapter design allows the water circuit components to be located on the side of the valve body and occupy as little space as possible.

[0074] Specifically, please refer to Figure 8 The water supply pipe 123 is configured as either a flexible or rigid pipe, comprising a first water supply pipe 1231 and a second water supply pipe 1232. The two ends of the first water supply pipe 1231 are connected to a first transition inlet channel 1211 and a second transition outlet channel 1222, respectively. The two ends of the second water supply pipe 1232 are connected to the first transition outlet channel 1212 and the second transition inlet channel 1221, respectively. Flexible pipes offer good flexibility and adaptability, facilitating layout and adjustment in complex environments, while rigid pipes provide higher stability and durability, making them suitable for environments requiring long-term stable operation. This design not only improves the practicality and flexibility of the water softening equipment but also further enhances its overall performance and reliability.

[0075] Specifically, please refer to the following: Figure 3 and Figure 6 The working module 1 also includes a drain pipe 15, which is connected to the valve body assembly 13 on the opposite side of the water circuit assembly 12. The drain pipe 15 effectively removes impurities and waste liquid from the working module 1, maintaining its cleanliness and efficiency. Furthermore, the drain pipe 15 is located on a different side of the valve body assembly 13 from the water circuit assembly 12, the first inlet 131, and the first outlet 132, further reducing the space required for the working module 1.

[0076] Furthermore, the drain pipe 15 includes a drain inlet 151 and a drain outlet 152. The drain inlet 151 is connected to the valve body assembly 13. The drain pipe 15 extends from the end connected to the valve body assembly 13 towards the first outlet 132 and the first inlet 131 by bending. The drain outlet 152 is close to the first outlet 132 and the first inlet 131, so that all the inlets and outlets in the working module 1 that need to be connected to the outside are concentrated in one area, making it more convenient for users to use and install the working module 1.

[0077] Specifically, please refer to Figure 8 The tank body 11 is provided with a tank cover 112, which is detachably connected to one end of the tank body 11 and perpendicular to the bottom of the tank body 11. An opening 111 is provided on the tank cover 112, and the orientation of the opening 111 is perpendicular to the orientation of the tank cover 112. Removing the tank cover 112 facilitates cleaning and maintenance of the tank body 11. At the same time, the water circuit assembly 12 is connected to the tank cover 112, and removing the tank cover 112 facilitates replacement of the water circuit assembly 12. The orientation of the opening 111 is perpendicular to the orientation of the tank cover 112, avoiding the need for the first adapter 121 to be located above the tank body 11, thus avoiding extending the overall length of the working module 1.

[0078] Specifically, please refer to Figure 9 The bottom of the outer casing 22 is provided with a first limiting groove 221, and the bottom of the tank 11 is placed within the first limiting groove 221. This design not only stabilizes the position of the tank 11, preventing it from shaking or shifting during operation, but also improves the overall stability and safety of the equipment. At the same time, the setting of the first limiting groove 221 also makes the installation and disassembly of the tank 11 more convenient, allowing users to easily maintain or replace the equipment as needed.

[0079] Furthermore, a second limiting groove 222 is provided at the bottom of the outer casing 22, and the bottom of the filter tank 2113 in the second cavity 2112 is placed within the second limiting groove 222. This design further stabilizes the position of the salt tank assembly 14, especially the filter tank 2113, preventing it from moving or deforming during operation, ensuring normal filtration and collection of brine, and also improving the overall stability and durability of the equipment. The second limiting groove 222 also facilitates user cleaning and maintenance of the equipment, especially cleaning of the filter tank 2113, improving the reliability and service life of the equipment.

[0080] Specifically, please refer to Figure 10 The working module 1 also includes a display component 25, which is mounted on the housing cover 23 and electrically connected to the valve body assembly 13. At least a portion of the display component 25 is exposed relative to the housing assembly 2. The display component 25 can display the operating status of the water softening equipment, water quality information, brine tank level, etc., allowing users to easily monitor the equipment's operation and water quality, thus improving the equipment's intelligence and user experience. Furthermore, the partially exposed design of the display component 25 allows users to view relevant information without opening the equipment casing, making it even more convenient.

[0081] This utility model relates to a water softening treatment device, comprising a shell assembly 2 and a working module 1, which facilitates installation and disassembly, improving ease of use. The shell assembly 2 consists of inner and outer shells 22. The working module 1 includes a tank 11, a water circuit assembly 12, and a valve assembly 13, located within the inner and outer cavities 212 formed by the inner and outer shells 21 and 22, respectively, protecting the internal working module 1. The inlet and outlet are designed in a recessed window 24 for easy pipe connection. The outer cavity 212 and inner cavity 211 are arranged side-by-side; when the device is placed vertically, the tank 11 and valve assembly 13 are perpendicular to the horizontal plane.

[0082] Reducing the footprint is beneficial for stable equipment operation. The design of the inner cavity 211 and the outer cavity 212 makes the equipment compact and small in size. At the same time, the opening 111 of the tank 11 is exposed through the inner shell 21. The water circuit assembly 12 and the valve assembly 13 are located on one side of the inner shell 21. The shell cover 23 covers this part of the working module 1, making full use of the space inside the shell assembly 2 to achieve miniaturization of the equipment. This makes the water softening equipment suitable for home use and meets the needs of household water softening.

[0083] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions and improvements made within the principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
