Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of direct drinking water machines, and in particular to a low-energy instant hot direct drinking water machine. Background Technology
[0002] A direct drinking water machine is a device that purifies municipal tap water by filtering out pollutants through various filtration and adsorption units, and then heats the water to produce drinking water that can be consumed directly.
[0003] As shown in Chinese Patent Publication No. CN110754939A, an energy-saving direct drinking water machine includes an inlet pipe and an outlet pipe. The inlet pipe includes an inlet pipe and a water purification unit disposed in the inlet pipe. The outlet pipe includes an outlet pipe partially sleeved in the middle of the inlet pipe, a heating tank, and a hot water outlet unit and a warm water outlet unit connected to the heating tank through the outlet pipe. One end of the inlet pipe sleeved with the outlet pipe is connected to the bottom of the heating tank to input water purified by the water purification unit into the heating tank for heating. The portion of the outlet pipe not sleeved in the inlet pipe extends to the upper part of the heating tank to output water heated by the heating tank to the hot water outlet unit and the warm water outlet unit. However, in actual use, the following shortcomings still exist:
[0004] When the aforementioned patented water purifier is in actual use, the water temperature is protected and the power is cut off by the interlocking of the inlet and outlet water pipes. However, in the hot water tank for heating drinking water, the temperature in the hot water tank is high due to the continuous power supply of the heating device. At this time, the hot water in the hot water tank will generate a large amount of water vapor. The water vapor contains a lot of heat, but it is not utilized, thus requiring high energy consumption to heat the water. Utility Model Content

[0010] By adopting the above technical solution, the arc-shaped chute is arranged in a centrally symmetrical manner, which facilitates the synchronous movement of multiple sliding columns.
[0011] Preferably, the stabilizing mechanism further includes a protective ring that penetrates the side wall of the cold water tank. A connecting disc is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the protective ring. A rotating component is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the connecting disc. The side wall of the rotating component is movably connected to the drive bar. A connecting plate is fixedly connected to the side of the drive bar away from the connecting disc. A limiting ring is fixedly connected to the end of the connecting plate away from the drive bar. A threaded rod that is threaded through the side wall of the limiting ring and is threaded through the drive bar is threaded through the side wall of the limiting ring. A limiting disc is fixedly connected to the side wall of the threaded rod. The end of the threaded rod away from the connecting disc is fixedly connected to a knob. A fixing member that is threaded through the threaded rod is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the rotating component.
[0012] By adopting the above technical solution, the side of the connecting disc and the rotating component that is close to the inner wall of the cold water tank maintains the same vertical thickness as the inner wall of the cold water tank, thereby avoiding grooves and reducing the space for bacterial growth.
[0013] Preferably, the outer wall of the rotating disk is in contact with the inner wall of the rotating component, the arc-shaped groove is formed through the side wall of the rotating disk, and the side wall of the rotating component is fixedly connected to the second limiting disk.
[0014] By adopting the above technical solution, the second limiting disk is in contact with the rotating disk on the side closest to the rotating disk, thereby limiting the rotating disk through the second limiting disk and the rotating component.
[0015] Preferably, a fixed plate is slidably connected to the side wall of the sliding block, a sealing shell is fixedly connected to the side wall of the second limiting plate, and a connecting plate is fixedly connected to the side of the sealing shell away from the second limiting plate.
[0016] By adopting the above technical solution, the outer diameter of the sealing shell is consistent with the outer diameter of the connecting plate, thus making the structural connection more reasonable.
[0017] Preferably, a connecting ring is fixedly passed through the inner wall of the rotating component, a sealing strip is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the connecting ring, a protective port is fixedly connected to the end of the connecting ring away from the fixed plate, and the side of the connecting plate away from the sealing shell is fixedly connected to another protective port.
[0018] By adopting the above technical solution, the sealing strip fits snugly against the outer wall of the conveying pipe, thereby improving the airtightness of the connection and preventing external gas from entering the interior of the cold water tank.
[0019] Preferably, the arc-shaped groove and the sliding column are connected through each other, and the end of the connecting ring away from the protection port is fixedly connected to a limiting disc three that is slidably connected to the sliding column.
[0020] By adopting the above technical solution, the outer diameter of the limiting plate is consistent with the outer diameter of the fixed plate, thereby avoiding interference with the movement of the sliding block.
[0021] Preferably, one end of the telescopic rod is fixedly connected to the sliding block, the other end of the telescopic rod is fixedly connected to the abutment, the spring is sleeved on the outer wall of the telescopic rod, and the end of the spring near the sliding block is fixedly connected to the sliding block.
[0022] By adopting the above technical solution, the axial distance of the telescopic rod is kept consistent with that of the sliding block, thereby making the structural movement more stable.
[0023] Preferably, the end of the spring away from the sliding block is fixedly connected to the abutment, and the delivery pipe movably passes through the middle of the sealing strip.
[0024] By adopting the above technical solution, the side of the contacting component closest to the fixed plate is snapped into the fixed plate, thereby further improving the airtightness of the structure.
[0025] In summary, this application includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects:
[0026] 1. The knob drives the drive bar to rotate in an arc, which in turn drives the rotating disk to rotate. This causes the sliding column to slide inside the arc-shaped groove, which in turn moves the sliding block towards the outer wall of the conveying pipe. The sliding block then causes the contact element to fit against the outer wall of the conveying pipe. When the conveying pipe vibrates, the cooperation of the telescopic rod and the spring cancels out the vibration, thus stabilizing the conveying pipe and further improving the stability of the structure. Moreover, the conveying pipe allows water vapor to be fully used to preheat the water, thereby further reducing energy consumption. Attached Figure Description

[0041] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figures 1-10 This application will be described in further detail.
[0042] This application discloses a low-energy instant hot water dispenser.

[0044] The staff pours water into the collection tank 12. The control panel 11 tests the water in the collection tank 12 using a TDS water quality testing device. If the test result does not meet the standard, the water in the collection tank 12 will enter the concentrate recovery device 13 for treatment, and then return to the collection tank 12 until the TDS water quality testing device detects a qualified value. Then the water in the collection tank 12 will flow into the cold water tank 14. The control panel 11 controls the peak and trough power consumption time. During the trough, the battery 16 is charged. During the peak, the battery 16 is used to power the instant heating device 17, thereby saving power. The water continues to flow from the cold water tank 14 into the preheating water tank 15. At this time, the instant heating device 17 inside the preheating water tank 15 will heat the water.
[0045] Reference Figures 2-5The stabilizing mechanism 2 includes a drive bar 24 disposed on the side wall of the cold water tank 14, a knob 29 disposed on one side of the drive bar 24, a rotating disk 211 fixedly disposed on the bottom of the drive bar 24, an arc-shaped groove 212 formed on the side wall of the rotating disk 211, a sliding column 221 slidably disposed inside the arc-shaped groove 212, a sliding block 222 fixedly disposed on one end of the sliding column 221, an abutment 219 disposed on the side of the sliding block 222 near the delivery pipe 18, a telescopic rod 224 fixedly disposed on the end of the sliding block 222 near the abutment 219, and a spring 225 fixedly disposed on the end of the sliding block 222 near the abutment 219. The stabilizing mechanism 2 also includes a protective ring 21 fixedly penetrating the side wall of the cold water tank 14, and a connecting disc 22 fixedly connected to the protective ring 21. The inner wall of the retaining ring 21 has a rotating component 23 fixedly connected to the inner wall of the connecting disc 22. The side wall of the rotating component 23 has an arc-shaped through groove that movably passes through the drive bar 24, allowing the drive bar 24 to slide and connect with the rotating component 23. The side of the drive bar 24 away from the connecting disc 22 is fixedly connected to the connecting plate 25. The limiting ring 26 is fixedly connected to the end of the connecting plate 25 away from the drive bar 24. The side wall of the limiting ring 26 has a threaded hole, through which the threaded rod 27 is threaded, allowing the threaded rod 27 to be threadedly connected to the limiting ring 26. The side wall of the drive bar 24 has a threaded hole, through which the threaded rod 27 is threaded, allowing the threaded rod 27 to be threadedly connected to the drive bar 24.
[0046] When installing the delivery pipe 18 and the cold water tank 14, the workers first pass the delivery pipe 18 through the contact member 219, the sealing strip 218, the protective port 220 and into the cold water tank 14. Then, the workers turn the knob 29 to disengage the knob 29 from the fixing member 210. The workers then grasp the knob 29 and drive the drive bar 24 to make an arc-shaped movement through the threaded rod 27, thereby driving the rotating disk 211 to rotate.
[0047] Reference Figures 6-8A circular hole is provided through the side wall of the limiting disc 28, and the threaded rod 27 is fixedly connected to the limiting disc 28 through the circular hole. The limiting disc 28 is located between the drive bar 24 and the limiting ring 26. The knob 29 is fixedly connected to the end of the threaded rod 27 away from the connecting disc 22. The side wall of the knob 29 has friction texture to facilitate the rotation of the knob 29 by the operator. The outer wall of the rotating part 23 is fixedly connected to the fixing part 210. Fixing parts 210 are provided at both ends of the arc-shaped through groove. The side wall of the fixing part 210 has a threaded hole, and the threaded rod 27 is threaded through the threaded hole, so that the fixing part 210 and the threaded rod 27 are threadedly connected. The rotating disc 2 The outer wall of the rotating part 211 is in contact with the inner wall of the rotating part 23. The diameter of the rotating disk 211 is smaller than the diameter of the rotating part 23. The arc-shaped sliding groove 212 is opened through the side wall of the rotating disk 211. The second limiting disk 213 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the rotating part 23. The outer diameter of the second limiting disk 213 is consistent with the outer diameter of the rotating part 23, so that the structural connection is more stable. The side wall of the sliding block 222 is slidably connected to the fixed disk 214. The side of the fixed disk 214 near the connecting disk 216 is fixedly connected to the connecting disk 216. The side wall of the second limiting disk 213 is fixedly connected to the sealing shell 215. The outer diameter of the second limiting disk 213 is consistent with the sealing shell 215. The side of the sealing shell 215 away from the second limiting disk 213 is fixedly connected to the connecting disk 216.
[0048] When the rotating disk 211 rotates, it will drive the sliding column 221 to slide inside the arc-shaped slide groove 212. The arc-shaped slide groove 212 will then drive the sliding block 222 to move synchronously. Subsequently, the sliding column 221 will slide to connect with the limiting disk 223. Then, the sliding block 222 will slide inside the fixed disk 214. Subsequently, the sliding block 222 will drive the contact member 219 to fit against the outer wall of the conveying pipe 18. As the sliding block 222 continues to move, the telescopic rod 224 will be compressed, and the spring 225 will also be compressed.
[0049] Reference Figure 9 , Figure 10The rotating component 23 has a second circular hole on its inner wall, and the rotating disk 211 has a third circular hole on its inner wall. A connecting ring 217 is fixedly inserted through the second circular hole and movably inserted through the third circular hole, thus fixing the connecting ring 217 to the rotating component 23 and rotatably connecting it to the rotating disk 211. The inner wall of the connecting ring 217 is fixedly connected to the sealing strip 218, and the inner wall of the sealing strip 218 movably penetrates the conveying pipe 18, thus supporting the outer wall of the conveying pipe 18. The sealing strip 218 is made of rubber and has a certain degree of flexibility. A protective port 220 is fixedly connected to the end of the connecting ring 217 away from the fixed disk 214. The protective port 220 is larger than the outer diameter of the sealing strip 218, thus protecting the sealing strip 218. A sliding column 221 movably penetrates the arc-shaped groove 212, allowing the sliding column 221 to move within the arc-shaped groove. The internal sliding mechanism 212 has a connecting ring 217 whose end is away from the protection port 220 and is fixedly connected to the limiting plate 223. The limiting plate 223 has a square groove on its edge. The sliding column 221 is slidably connected to the square groove, which facilitates guiding the sliding direction of the sliding column 221. The telescopic rod 224 is fixedly connected to the sliding block 222 on the side near the telescopic rod 224. The telescopic end of the telescopic rod 224 is fixedly connected to the abutment 219 on the side near the telescopic rod 224. The spring 225 is sleeved on the outer wall of the telescopic rod 224. The end of the spring 225 near the sliding block 222 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the sliding block 222. The end of the spring 225 away from the sliding block 222 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the abutment 219. The side of the connecting plate 216 away from the sealing shell 215 is fixedly connected to the other protection port 220 on the side near the connecting plate 216.
[0050] During the heating process inside the preheating water tank 15, water vapor is generated. The water vapor is transported from the delivery pipe 18 to the cold water tank 14. When the water vapor passes through the delivery pipe 18, the shaking of the delivery pipe 18 caused by the water vapor acts on the contact member 219 and is transmitted to the spring 225. The spring 225 buffers the water, thereby improving the stability of the delivery pipe 18. This allows the water vapor to preheat the water inside the cold water tank 14, thus preheating the water flowing from the cold water tank 14 into the preheating water tank 15. This improves the heating efficiency and increases the water flow rate.
[0051] The control panel 11, the concentrate recovery device 13, the storage battery 16, and the instant heating device 17 are all existing technologies, and their structural principles will not be described in detail. They also include water valves, TDS water quality testing devices, connecting wires, power switches, etc., which are not the main technologies and will not be described in detail.
[0052] The implementation principle of a low-energy instant hot water dispenser according to an embodiment of this application is as follows:
[0053] During installation, the worker passes the delivery pipe 18 through multiple components into the cold water tank 14, turns the knob 29 to release the threaded connection, and drives the rotating disk 211 to rotate through the threaded rod 27 and the drive bar 24. This causes the sliding column 221 to slide in the arc-shaped groove 212 and drive the sliding block 222 to move synchronously. Then, it slides into the limiting disk 223 and causes the sliding block 222 to slide in the fixed disk 214, thereby causing the contact member 219 to fit against the delivery pipe 18. With the movement, the telescopic rod 224 and the spring 225 are compressed, and water vapor is delivered from the delivery pipe 18 to the cold water tank 14. Its swaying is transmitted to the spring 225 through the contact member 219 to buffer it, improve the stability of the delivery pipe 18, preheat the water inside the cold water tank 14, improve the heating efficiency, and increase the water flow rate.
[0054] The above are merely optional embodiments of this disclosure and are not intended to limit this disclosure. Various modifications and variations can be made to this disclosure by those skilled in the art. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this disclosure should be included within the scope of protection of this disclosure.
