Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to a water circuit structure for a countertop water purifier that provides continuous water output. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, when a countertop water purifier runs out of water, users have to wait for the water to be replenished before they can dispense water. This long waiting time negatively impacts the user experience. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the shortcomings of the existing technology and provide a water circuit structure for a countertop water purifier that allows for continuous water output. When the countertop water purifier is short of water, there is no need to wait for water to be added, and the filtered water can flow directly out through the water outlet, providing a good user experience.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution of this utility model is implemented as follows: it is a water circuit structure for a countertop water purifier that provides continuous water output, characterized by comprising:

[0005] The system comprises a raw water tank, a booster pump, a wastewater valve, and a filter assembly; the raw water tank has an outlet and a return outlet, the filter assembly has an inlet, a wastewater outlet, and an outlet; the outlet of the raw water tank is connected to the inlet of the filter assembly via the booster pump, and the wastewater outlet of the filter assembly is connected to the return outlet of the raw water tank via the wastewater valve; and

[0006] The system includes a reversing valve, a level sensor, a pure water tank, a water pump, and a water outlet. The reversing valve has one inlet and two outlets. The inlet of the reversing valve is connected to the outlet of the filter assembly. One outlet of the reversing valve is connected to the inlet of the pure water tank, and the other outlet of the reversing valve is connected to the inlet of the water outlet. The level sensor is installed in the pure water tank, and the outlet of the pure water tank is connected to the inlet of the water outlet through the water pump.

[0007] In this embodiment, a UV lamp is also included, which is installed on the pipeline between the reversing valve and the inlet of the pure water tank.

[0008] In this embodiment, a check valve is also included, which is installed on the pipeline connecting the water pump and the outlet.

[0009] In this embodiment, a flow meter is also included, which is installed on the pipeline between the other outlet of the reversing valve and the inlet of the water outlet.

[0010] The advantages of this invention compared to existing technologies are: no need to wait for water replenishment, and the filtered water can flow directly out through the spout, resulting in a better user experience. Attached Figure Description

[0011] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the waterway of this utility model. Detailed Implementation

[0012] The specific embodiments of this utility model will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be noted that these descriptions are for the purpose of aiding understanding of this utility model, but do not constitute a limitation thereof. Furthermore, the technical features involved in the various embodiments of this utility model described below can be combined with each other as long as they do not conflict with each other.

[0013] like Figure 1 The diagram shows a water circuit structure for a countertop water purifier that provides continuous water output, including:

[0014] The system comprises a raw water tank 1, a booster pump 2, a wastewater valve 3, and a filter assembly 4; the raw water tank 1 has an outlet and a return outlet, and the filter assembly 4 has an inlet, a wastewater outlet, and an outlet. The outlet of the raw water tank 1 is connected to the inlet of the filter assembly 4 via the booster pump 2, and the wastewater outlet of the filter assembly 4 is connected to the return outlet of the raw water tank 1 via the wastewater valve 3.

[0015] The system includes a reversing valve 5, a liquid level sensor 7, a pure water tank 8, a water pump 10, and a water outlet 12. The reversing valve 5 has one inlet and two outlets. The inlet of the reversing valve 5 is connected to the outlet of the filter assembly 4. One outlet of the reversing valve 5 is connected to the inlet of the pure water tank 8, and the other outlet of the reversing valve 5 is connected to the inlet of the water outlet 12. The liquid level sensor 7 is installed in the pure water tank 8, and the outlet of the pure water tank 8 is connected to the inlet of the water outlet 12 through the water pump 10.

[0016] When the water purifier starts producing water, the booster pump 2 draws raw water from the raw water tank 1. The raw water enters the filter assembly 4 for filtration, and then passes through the reversing valve 5 into the pure water tank 8. The water in the pure water tank 8 is pumped to the outlet 12 by the water pump 10.

[0017] Method for continuous water output: When the liquid level sensor 7 in the pure water tank 8 detects a lack of water, the booster pump 2 immediately starts working to produce water, and the reversing valve 5 closes one outlet and opens the other outlet to switch the water path, so that the filtered water moves directly to the water outlet 12.

[0018] In this embodiment, a UV lamp 6 is also included, which is installed on the pipeline between the reversing valve 5 and the inlet of the pure water tank 8. During operation, the UV lamp 6 serves a sterilization function.

[0019] In this embodiment, a check valve 11 is also included, which is installed on the pipeline connecting the water pump 10 and the outlet 12.

[0020] In this embodiment, a flow meter 9 is also included, which is installed on the pipeline between the other outlet of the reversing valve 5 and the inlet of the water outlet 12. During operation, the flow meter 9 is used to determine the water output.

[0021] The embodiments of this utility model have been described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings, but this utility model is not limited to the described embodiments. For those skilled in the art, various changes, modifications, substitutions, and variations of these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of this utility model still fall within the protection scope of this utility model.
