Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of mattress technology, and in particular to an improved structure of the temperature control host for a temperature-controlled mattress. Background Technology
[0002] Mattresses are an essential part of people's lives. The firmness, temperature, and humidity of a mattress affect a person's comfort. In summer, the part of the mattress in contact with the body cannot dissipate heat, making it easy to sweat. Even in an air-conditioned room, this feeling is not comfortable. In winter, the mattress feels very cold, affecting sleep quality and daily life. Although electric blankets can solve the problem of cold, they pose safety hazards, can easily cause dryness and internal heat, and do not have a cooling effect in summer.
[0003] To address these issues, temperature-regulating mattresses have emerged. Existing temperature-regulating mattresses use a single temperature-regulating module that can adjust temperature. However, this single module needs to be activated in both summer and winter. Short-term temperature changes and prolonged continuous operation can easily damage the module and shorten its lifespan. Furthermore, the temperature-regulating range of this module is limited, which hinders the widespread application of the product. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to overcome the shortcomings of the existing technology and provide an improved structure for the temperature control main unit of a temperature-regulating mattress, in which the cooling module and the heating module work independently, which is conducive to improving the service life of both modules, and the overall product has a large range of temperature regulation, which is conducive to the promotion and application of the product.
[0005] The purpose of this utility model is achieved as follows:
[0006] An improved structure for the temperature-regulating main unit of a temperature-regulating mattress includes a casing, a water outlet pipe, and a water return pipe. A water storage tank is installed inside the casing. One end of the water outlet pipe is connected to the water storage tank, and the other end extends outside the casing. The key feature is that the casing also houses a cooling module and a heating module. The cooling module cools the water storage tank, and the heating module is connected to both ends of the water storage tank and one end of the water return pipe, with the other end of the water return pipe extending outside the casing. In this temperature-regulating mattress, the cooling and heating modules can operate independently. The cooling module primarily operates in summer, while the heating module is primarily used in winter, preventing both from operating for extended periods and extending their lifespan. Furthermore, the cooling module has a large cooling range, and the heating module has a large heating range, resulting in a wider overall temperature regulation range for the product, which is beneficial for its widespread application.
[0007] The objective of this utility model can also be achieved by the following technical measures:
[0008] Specifically, it further includes a support platform located on one side of the water storage tank. The support platform includes a support plate and multiple legs connected to the bottom of the support plate. The lower ends of the multiple legs are fixed to the inner bottom of the chassis. The heating module is fixed on the support plate, and part of the cooling module is placed in the inner bottom of the chassis and below the support plate. The other part of the cooling module is placed in the water storage tank. The support plate on the support platform can support the heating module and also separate the heating module and the cooling module, which is beneficial to the stable operation of the heating module and the cooling module. Furthermore, the heating module and the cooling module are arranged vertically and located on one side of the water storage tank. This layout makes the positions of the components inside the chassis more compact and avoids the overall size of the chassis being too large.
[0009] Specifically, the refrigeration module includes a compressor, a condenser, and an evaporator. The compressor and condenser are fixed to the bottom of the chassis and located below the support plate. A cooling fan is fixed to the side of the condenser near the side wall of the chassis. The evaporator is placed inside a water storage tank to achieve stable refrigeration inside the water storage tank, which has a good implementation effect.
[0010] Specifically, it further includes a return water valve. The heating module is an instant heater. The return water valve is fixed on the support plate. The two ends of the return water valve are connected to the instant heater and the water storage tank respectively. This allows the water flowing back through the return water pipe to pass through the instant heater and the return water valve in sequence before flowing to the water storage tank. The return water valve can effectively control the flow of water heated by the instant heater to the water storage tank.
[0011] Specifically, it further includes a control circuit board, which is fixed on the support plate and located on one side of the heating module and the return water valve. The control circuit board is electrically connected to the heating module and the cooling module respectively, so that the user can control the specific operation of the heating module and the cooling module through the control circuit board.
[0012] Specifically, it further includes a water pump, which is fixed at the bottom of the chassis and located below the water storage tank. The two ends of the water pump are respectively connected to the water storage tank and one end of the outlet pipe. The water pump is electrically connected to the control circuit board. The compact position of the water pump and the water storage tank helps to reduce the water path between the water pump and the water storage tank, so that the water in the water storage tank can flow quickly to the outlet pipe through the water pump.
[0013] Furthermore, a temperature probe is installed at the bottom of the water storage tank, and the temperature probe is electrically connected to the control circuit board; so that the temperature probe can monitor the cold water temperature or hot water temperature in the water storage tank in real time and feed it back to the control circuit board, ensuring that the hot water temperature or cold water temperature discharged from the water storage tank can reach the user's specified temperature.
[0014] Specifically, it further includes a fixed cover plate and a water pipe connector. The outlet and return water pipes are both fixedly connected to the water pipe connector. The chassis includes a base and an outer shell. The outer shell is fixed on the base and encloses the refrigeration module, heating module, and water storage tank. The water pipe connector is placed on the base, with one end extending out of the outer shell. The fixed cover plate is fixedly connected to the base at both ends and presses onto the water pipe connector. The outlet and return water pipes are installed and fixed on the chassis through the water pipe connector. At the same time, the water pipe connector is stably pressed onto the base by the fixed cover plate. The operation is simple and the fixing effect is good. Furthermore, the base provides an installation carrier for the refrigeration module, heating module, and water storage tank, making the installation operation relatively simple. The outer shell plays a good role in protecting the refrigeration module, heating module, and water storage tank, which is conducive to the stable operation of the refrigeration module, heating module, and water storage tank.
[0015] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:
[0016] (1) The temperature control unit of this temperature-regulating mattress has a cooling module and a heating module that can work independently. The cooling module is mainly used in summer, and the heating module is mainly used in winter. This avoids the two modules working for too long, which helps to improve their service life. In addition, the cooling module has a large range of cold adjustment and the heating module has a large range of heat adjustment, which makes the overall temperature and heat adjustment range of the product larger and is conducive to the promotion and application of the product.
[0017] (2) The support plate on the support platform can support the heating module. At the same time, the support plate can also separate the heating module and the cooling module, which is conducive to the stable operation of the heating module and the cooling module. Furthermore, the heating module and the cooling module are arranged vertically and located on one side of the water storage tank. This layout makes the positions of the components inside the chassis more compact and avoids the overall volume of the chassis being too large.
[0018] (3) The water outlet pipe and the water return pipe are installed and fixed on the chassis through the water pipe connector. At the same time, the water pipe connector is stably pressed on the base by the fixed cover plate. The operation is simple and the fixing effect is good. Furthermore, the base provides an installation carrier for the refrigeration module, the heating module and the water storage tank, and the installation operation is relatively simple. The outer shell plays a good role in protecting the refrigeration module, the heating module and the water storage tank, which is conducive to the stable operation of the refrigeration module, the heating module and the water storage tank.
