Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of heating device technology, and in particular to a device for heating water in a water storage tank or container. Background Technology

[0002] In the field of heating device technology, especially for devices that heat water in storage tanks or containers, there are currently two main energy options: natural gas and electricity. Natural gas is the most common energy source for heating water in domestic, commercial, and industrial environments. It is widely used and technologically mature. The high-temperature heat generated by the combustion of natural gas is transferred to the water in the storage tank or container through a heat exchanger, thereby achieving the purpose of heating. The other option is electric heating, which uses electric heating elements such as resistance wires and electric heating tubes to convert electrical energy into heat energy and directly heat the water. Electric heating equipment is more expensive, but it is easy to replace and maintain, and it is not limited by geographical location. It can be used as long as there is a power supply.

[0003] Although natural gas and electricity are the two main energy sources for heating water, they each have obvious drawbacks: natural gas, as a fossil fuel, produces a large amount of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases during combustion, posing a serious threat to the environment; while electric heating equipment faces the problem of high operating costs. Although electric heating equipment is technically easy to implement and simple to maintain, its huge power consumption leads to very high operating costs. Therefore, a device for heating water in storage tanks or containers is proposed. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies, such as the fact that natural gas, as a fossil fuel, produces large amounts of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases during combustion, posing a serious threat to the environment, while electric heating equipment faces the problem of high operating costs. Although electric heating equipment is technically easy to implement and simple to maintain, its huge power consumption leads to very high operating costs. Therefore, this invention proposes a device for heating water in storage tanks or containers.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0006] A device for heating water in a water storage tank or container includes a heating mechanism and a base plate. The heating mechanism consists of two integrally formed coil rods and an induction coil. An insulating sleeve spacer bolt is fixedly connected to the outer circumferential wall of the coil rod. The coil rod is fixedly inserted through the insulating sleeve spacer bolt, and the insulating sleeve spacer bolt is fixedly inserted through the bottom of the base plate.

[0007] In one possible design, a metal rod is fixedly connected to the bottom center of the substrate, and the metal rod is located inside the induction coil.

[0008] In one possible design, a probe receiving tube is fixedly connected to one side of the bottom of the substrate, and a temperature sensor is provided on the top of the substrate, with the probe of the temperature sensor penetrating the substrate and located inside the probe receiving tube.

[0009] In one possible design, a metal boot-shaped connector for connecting wires is provided at the top of the outer circumference of the coil rod. The metal boot-shaped connector consists of two integrally formed conductive tubes. A plurality of fixing screws one and two are respectively provided on the outer circumference of the metal boot-shaped connector. Both fixing screws one and two are threaded through the outer circumference of the metal boot-shaped connector. One of the conductive tubes of the metal boot-shaped connector is sleeved on the outside of the corresponding coil rod and fixedly connected by fixing screw two.

[0010] In one possible design, a component protective cover is fixedly connected to the top of the substrate. The component protective cover is sleeved over the two coil rods, two metal shoe connectors and a temperature sensor. The top of the component protective cover has two through insertion holes for wires to pass through, and the bottom of the outer circumferential wall of the component protective cover has through fixing holes for fixing wires.

[0011] In one possible design, the top of the component protective cover is fixedly provided with two support blocks for fixing wires, and each of the two support blocks has two fixing grooves on the side that is close to each other.

[0012] Working Principle: In this application, when people need to use this device to heat water, the device can first be installed on the outer wall of the water storage tank. Then, water to be heated is added to the water storage tank through the cold water inlet, and the induction coil and metal rod are completely submerged in the water. The coil rod is then connected to wire one through a metal shoe connector, and wire one is connected to the induction generator. The induction generator is then connected to an external power supply through wire four to a power isolator, and to a temperature sensor through wires two and three. The induction generator will then induce electricity in the heating mechanism through wire one. The induction coil will then heat the metal rod in the middle under the action of the induced electricity. During the process of heating the metal rod, the heating mechanism itself will also generate heat. The heating mechanism and the metal rod will heat the water in the water storage tank or container together, thereby reducing energy consumption. The heated hot water is then discharged from the hot water outlet. When the device heats the water in the water storage tank to the specified temperature, the temperature sensor detects through the probe that the current water temperature has reached the specified stable temperature. Then, the power supply from the induction generator to the heating mechanism is disconnected through wires two and three, thereby stopping the heating of the water in the water storage tank.

[0013] Beneficial effects: In this utility model, the device for heating water in a water storage tank or container achieves dual heating of water by means of a heating mechanism consisting of two integrally formed coil rods and an induction coil, and a metal rod located inside the induction coil. This method can improve heating efficiency and reduce energy consumption through induction heating. At the same time, the use of insulating sleeve spacer bolts further enhances the safety of the device, ensuring that the current does not come into direct contact with the water during the heating process, thereby achieving a safe and efficient heating effect.

[0014] In this utility model, the device for heating water in a water storage tank or container achieves a stable connection between the heating mechanism and an external power source by setting a metal boot-shaped connector at the top of the coil rod and equipping it with multiple fixing screws. The metal boot-shaped connector is composed of two integrally formed conductive round tubes, which are reasonably designed and have a stable structure, ensuring the stability and safety of the current during transmission. At the same time, the component protective cover not only protects the heating mechanism and temperature sensor from interference and damage from the external environment, but also allows for convenient connection and fixing of wires through the insertion holes and fixing holes, thereby achieving the effect of protecting components and improving the overall stability and durability of the device.

[0015] In this invention, a device for heating water in a water storage tank or container is provided. By setting a temperature sensor and a probe receiving tube, the device achieves real-time monitoring and control of the water temperature in the water storage tank or container. When the water temperature reaches the specified temperature, the temperature sensor will disconnect the power supply to the heating mechanism through the induction generator via a wire, thereby stopping the heating and avoiding energy waste and safety hazards caused by excessively high water temperature. This intelligent temperature control method can not only improve the accuracy and efficiency of heating, but also flexibly adjust the water temperature according to actual needs to meet the usage needs of different users, thereby achieving the effects of energy saving, environmental protection, and improved user experience.

[0016] In this invention, a heating mechanism consisting of two integrally formed coil rods and an induction coil, along with a metal rod located within the induction coil, enables dual heating of water by both the heating mechanism and the metal rod. This method improves heating efficiency and reduces energy consumption through induction heating. Furthermore, the use of insulating sleeves and spacer bolts enhances the device's safety, ensuring that the current does not directly contact the water during heating, thus achieving a safe and efficient heating effect. A metal boot-shaped connector, equipped with multiple fixing screws, is installed at the top of the coil rods to achieve a stable connection between the heating mechanism and an external power source. The metal boot-shaped connector, composed of two integrally formed conductive round tubes, is rationally designed and structurally robust, ensuring the stability and safety of the current during transmission. Additionally, the component protective cover... This design not only protects the heating mechanism and temperature sensor from external environmental interference and damage, but also allows for convenient connection and fixing of wires through the provided insertion and fixing holes. This protects the components and improves the overall stability and durability of the device. Furthermore, by incorporating a temperature sensor and probe housing tube, real-time monitoring and control of the water temperature in the storage tank or container can be achieved. When the water temperature reaches the specified level, the temperature sensor disconnects the power supply to the heating mechanism via the induction generator, thus stopping heating and preventing energy waste and safety hazards caused by excessively high water temperatures. This intelligent temperature control method not only improves heating accuracy and efficiency but also allows for flexible adjustment of the water temperature according to actual needs, meeting the requirements of different users and achieving energy conservation, environmental protection, and improved user experience.

[0028] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.

[0029] Example 1: Refer to Figures 1-10 A heating device includes a heating mechanism and a base plate 2. The heating mechanism consists of two integrally formed coil rods 1 and an induction coil 5. An insulating sleeve spacer bolt 14 is fixedly connected to the outer circumference of the coil rod 1, and the coil rod 1 passes through the insulating sleeve spacer bolt 14. The insulating sleeve spacer bolt 14 passes through the bottom of the base plate 2 and is fixedly connected to the base plate 2 by a hexagonal nut 9 and a washer 10, ensuring a stable connection between the heating mechanism and the base plate 2, and simultaneously achieving electrical insulation.

[0030] A metal rod 4 is provided at the bottom center of the substrate 2. The top of the metal rod 4 has an internal screw hole 12. The metal rod 4 is fixed to the bottom of the substrate 2 by a long screw 13 and a washer 10. The metal rod 4 is located inside the induction coil 5 so that the magnetic field generated by the induction coil 5 can directly act on the metal rod 4 to achieve efficient energy transfer.

[0031] A probe receiving tube 3 is also connected to the bottom side of the substrate 2 by welding or other fixing methods to accommodate the probe of the temperature sensor 15. The temperature sensor 15 is provided on the top of the substrate 2, and its probe passes through the substrate 2 and is located in the probe receiving tube 3 so as to accurately measure the temperature in the water.

[0032] A metal boot-shaped connector 32 is provided on the top of the outer circumference of the coil rod 1 for connecting the wire. The metal boot-shaped connector 32 consists of two integrally formed conductive tubes, and multiple fixing screws 48 and 49 are respectively provided on the outer circumference of the tubes. Both fixing screws 48 and 49 are threaded through the outer circumference of the metal boot-shaped connector 32. One of the conductive tubes of the metal boot-shaped connector 32 is sleeved on the outside of the corresponding coil rod 1 and fixedly connected by fixing screw 49, ensuring a stable connection between the wire and the coil rod 1.

[0033] To protect the heating mechanism and related components, a component protective cover 35 is fixedly connected to the top of the substrate 2 by screws. The component protective cover 35 is fitted over the two coil rods 1, the two metal boot-shaped connectors 32, and the temperature sensor 15. Two through-holes 36 are formed on its top for wires to pass through. Through-holes 40 are also formed on the bottom of the outer circumference of the component protective cover 35 for fixing the wires. Furthermore, two support blocks 41 are fixedly mounted on the top of the component protective cover 35 by screws. Two fixing grooves 44 are formed on the side of each support block 41 that is close to each other, for further fixing and organizing the wires.

[0034] This application can be used in the field of heating devices, or in other fields applicable to this application.

[0035] Example 2: Reference Figures 1-10 Based on Embodiment 1, an improvement is made: a device for heating water in a water storage tank or container, which is applied to the field of heating devices. The heating device in this embodiment is basically the same as that in Embodiment 1, except for its installation and usage.

[0036] When this device is needed to heat water, it is first installed on the outer wall of the water storage tank body 25, ensuring that the induction coil 5 and the metal rod 4 are completely submerged in water. Then, water to be heated is added to the water storage tank body 25 through the cold water inlet 31. Next, the coil rod 1 is connected to wire 17 via the metal shoe connector 32, and wire 17 is connected to the induction generator 21. The induction generator 21 is then connected to an external power supply via wire 20 to the power supply isolator 22, and connected to the temperature sensor 15 via wires 18 and 19.

[0037] When the external power supply is turned on, the induction generator 21 induces electricity in the heating mechanism via wire 17. Under the influence of this induced electricity, the induction coil 5 heats the metal rod 4 in the middle, and the heating mechanism itself also generates heat. In this way, the heating mechanism and the metal rod 4 work together to heat the water in the water storage tank 25 or the container, thereby reducing energy consumption.

[0038] The heated water will be discharged from the hot water outlet 29. When the device heats the water in the main body 25 of the water storage tank to the specified temperature, the probe of the temperature sensor 15 will sense that the current water temperature has reached the specified temperature, and send a signal to the induction generator 21 through wire 2 18 and wire 3 19 to disconnect the power supply to the heating mechanism, thereby stopping the heating of the water in the main body 25 of the water storage tank.

[0039] In this way, the device can achieve efficient and energy-saving heating of water, and is suitable for various occasions that require water heating.

[0040] However, as is well known to those skilled in the art, the working principles and wiring methods of the temperature sensor 15, the sensing device 21, and the power supply isolator 22 are commonplace and are all conventional methods or common knowledge. They will not be described in detail here. Those skilled in the art can make any selections according to their needs or convenience.

[0041] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or changes made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model, based on the technical solution and the inventive concept of the present utility model, should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
