[0002] Traditional water purifiers achieve the function of producing disinfected water by adding a disinfection device to the existing structure. The operation process is as follows: raw water first passes through the primary filtration system inside the water purifier. The pre-purified water is then transported through pipelines to the disinfection device, where it is converted into disinfected water with bactericidal effects using electrochemical treatment methods.

[0003] Currently, the piping between water purifiers and disinfection devices is mostly fixed. This presents significant operational challenges when the disinfection device requires maintenance, cleaning, or component replacement. Because the piping cannot be easily disassembled, maintenance personnel often spend considerable time dismantling the complex piping, reducing maintenance efficiency and increasing costs.

[0048] In the description of this utility model, the use of "first" and "second" is only for the purpose of distinguishing technical features and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly indicating the number of technical features or the order of the technical features.

[0049] In the description of this utility model, unless otherwise explicitly defined, terms such as "setting," "installation," and "connection" should be interpreted broadly, and those skilled in the art can reasonably determine the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model in conjunction with the specific content of the technical solution.

[0050] Reference Figure 1 As shown in the figure, this utility model embodiment proposes a disinfection device 1000, which is applied to water purification equipment. The disinfection device 1000 includes an electrolysis module 100, a base 200 and a connecting sleeve 300. The connecting sleeve 300 is connected to the base 200. The electrolysis module 100 and the connecting sleeve 300 are detachably connected, so as to realize the detachable connection between the electrolysis module 100 and the base 200.

[0051] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 5 As shown, the electrolysis module 100 includes a housing 110, which is generally cylindrical. An electrolysis chamber 113 is located within the housing 110, and an electrolysis component 140 is disposed within the electrolysis chamber 113. The electrolysis component 140 is used to electrochemically treat water to produce electrolyzed water. An inlet 111 and an outlet 112 are provided at the bottom of the housing 110, and both inlet and outlet 112 are connected to the electrolysis chamber 113. Furthermore, a first conductive part 120 is also provided at the bottom of the housing 110. The first conductive part 120 is electrically connected to the electrolysis component 140 and is used to connect to a second conductive part 260 of the base 200 to supply power to the electrolysis component 140.

[0052] Reference Figure 3 As shown, the base 200 is provided with a water inlet connector 210, a water outlet connector 220, and a second conductive part 260. The water inlet connector 210 has a water inlet channel 211, and the water outlet connector 220 has a water outlet channel 221. The water inlet connector 210 is adapted to the water inlet 111 so that the water inlet connector 210 can be inserted into the water inlet 111. The water outlet connector 220 is adapted to the water outlet 112 so that the water outlet connector 220 can be inserted into the water outlet 112.

[0053] In this embodiment, the base 200 is also provided with an inlet connection port and an outlet connection port. The inlet connection port is connected to the inlet channel 211, and the outlet connection port is connected to the outlet channel 221. The inlet connection port is used to connect to an external water supply system, and the outlet connection port is used to connect to an external water-using component. The second conductive part 260 is used to connect to an external power supply circuit. The second conductive part 260 is electrically connected to the first conductive part 120 to provide power to the electrolysis component 140.

[0054] In other words, when the electrolysis module 100 and the base 200 are disconnected, the first conductive part 120 and the second conductive part 260 are disconnected; when the electrolysis module 100 and the base 200 are connected, the first conductive part 120 and the second conductive part 260 can be electrically connected.

[0055] Reference Figure 3 As shown, a boss 230 is provided on the base 200, which is used to connect with the connecting sleeve 300. The water inlet connector 210, the water outlet connector 220, and the second conductive part 260 are all located on the boss 230. The water inlet connector 210 and the water outlet connector 220 protrude from the upper surface of the boss 230 and are generally cylindrical.

[0056] During installation, the connecting sleeve 300 is fixedly connected to the boss 230, and the electrolysis module 100 is inserted into the connecting sleeve 300 so that the connecting sleeve 300 can tightly fit the electrolysis module 100. The connecting sleeve 300 and the electrolysis module 100 can be fixed by means of interference fit, snap-fit, threaded connection, etc. After the electrolysis module 100 is installed in place, the water inlet connector 210 and the water outlet connector 220 are respectively inserted into the water inlet 111 and the water outlet 112, so that the water inlet connector 210 and the water outlet connector 220 are connected to the electrolysis chamber 113. At the same time, the first conductive part 120 and the second conductive part 260 contact to achieve electrical connection, thereby realizing the connection between the electrolysis module 100 and the base 200.

[0057] During operation, water can enter the electrolysis chamber 113 through the inlet connector 210. After being processed by the electrolysis component 140 in the electrolysis chamber 113, disinfected water is obtained. Then, the disinfected water is discharged through the outlet connector 220. No additional pipeline is needed to connect the electrolysis module 100 and the base 200, which simplifies the pipeline connection structure and allows for quick disassembly and installation of the disinfection module, making it convenient for maintenance of the disinfection module.

[0058] It should be noted that the working principle of the electrolysis module 100 is to generate electrolyzed water from tap water through electrochemical water treatment. Electrolyzed water has active groups with strong oxidizing properties. The hydrogen ions in the electrolyzed water can combine with the chloride ions in the water to produce hypochlorous acid. Hypochlorous acid reacts with pesticide residues on fruits and vegetables, thus degrading pesticide residues. Moreover, the generated hypochlorous acid and hydroxide ions in the electrolyzed water can chemically react with hydrogen elements in bacteria, destroying the molecular structure of bacteria and killing a variety of harmful bacteria. In this way, using electrolyzed water to clean fruits, vegetables, and tableware can achieve the effect of disinfection and sterilization. Therefore, in this embodiment, the electrolyzed water can also be called disinfectant water. When the disinfection device 1000 is applied to water purification equipment, it enables the water purification equipment to have water purification and disinfection functions, which is suitable for household and commercial cleaning of food pesticide residues and other cleaning scenarios.

[0059] The connecting sleeve 300 serves to connect the electrolysis module 100 and the base 200. It is connected to the base 200 and is detachably connected to the electrolysis module 100. This detachable connection method makes it more convenient and faster to install, maintain and replace the electrolysis module 100 in the disinfection device 1000. The connecting sleeve 300 and the housing 110 can be connected in a variety of ways.

[0060] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, in some embodiments, the connecting sleeve 300 and the housing 110 are connected by a connecting structure, which includes a locking block 115 and a locking groove 310. The locking block 115 is disposed on the outer peripheral wall of the housing 110, and the locking groove 310 is disposed on the inner peripheral wall of the connecting sleeve 300. The connecting sleeve 300 is fitted onto the outer peripheral wall of the housing 110, and the locking block 115 is inserted into the locking groove 310 for engagement, allowing the connecting sleeve 300 to be connected to the electrolysis module 100. When the connecting sleeve 300 is fixed to the base 200, the electrolysis module 100 can be fixed on the base 200. Moreover, when the locking block 115 disengages from the locking groove 310, the electrolysis module 100 can be separated from the connecting sleeve 300, enabling quick disassembly of the electrolysis module 100.

[0061] Specifically, there are two matching locking blocks 115 and two locking slots 310. The two locking blocks 115 are symmetrically distributed on the outer side of the electrolysis module 100, and the two locking slots 310 are symmetrically distributed on the inner sidewall of the connecting sleeve 300. The two locking blocks 115 and the two locking slots 310 are matched one-to-one. In some embodiments, the locking blocks 115 can be in the form of snap-fit. When the electrolysis module 100 is inserted into the connecting sleeve 300, the snap-fit ​​can be engaged in the locking slot 310 to achieve the purpose of fixation. Of course, this is only an example and is not limited to the form of snap-fit. The specific form and number of locking blocks 115 and locking slots 310 can be selected according to the actual assembly requirements to meet the needs of quick assembly and disassembly between the electrolysis module 100 and the connecting sleeve 300.

[0062] Figure 2 and Figure 3In the embodiment shown, the locking block 115 is disposed on the outer peripheral wall of the housing 110 and extends circumferentially along the housing 110. The locking block 115 is generally strip-shaped, and the locking groove 310 extends circumferentially along the connecting sleeve 300. The shape of the locking block 115 matches that of the locking groove 310. One end of the locking block 115 has a tip 1151, and the other end is provided with a limiting block 1152. The tip 1151 is easy to insert into the locking groove 310, and the limiting block 1152 plays a limiting role. In addition, to facilitate the insertion of the card block 115 into the card slot 310, a guide groove 320 is provided on the upper end face of the connecting sleeve 300 in the embodiment. The guide groove 320 extends downward from the upper end face of the connecting sleeve 300 and communicates with one end of the card slot 310. The size of the guide groove 320 matches the size of the card block 115. The guide groove 320 is used to guide the card block 115 into the card slot 310. The limiting block 1152 is locked in the guide groove 320, so that the card block 115 and the card slot 310 fit more tightly.

[0063] It is understood that the slot 310 and guide groove 320 are recessed structures formed on the inner wall of the connecting sleeve 300, and the guide groove 320 is constructed to be inclined from top to bottom. When the electrolysis module 100 and the connecting sleeve 300 need to be assembled, the electrolysis module 100 is inserted into the connecting sleeve 300 from top to bottom. The locking block 115 enters through the guide groove 320 and slides along the guide groove 320 towards the slot 310. At this time, the electrolysis module 100 needs to be rotated by an external force at a certain angle so that the locking block 115 can slide completely into the slot 310 to achieve the locking action, thereby achieving the purpose of quick assembly, and the electrolysis module 100 is not easy to detach from the connecting sleeve 300. The specific shapes of the guide groove 320 and the slot 310 are adapted to the shape of the locking block 115.

[0064] During installation, simply align the locking block 115 on the electrolysis module 100 with the guide groove 320 on the connecting sleeve 300 and rotate it gently to make the locking block 115 snap into the slot 310, thus completing the connection; during disassembly, simply reverse the operation to separate the electrolysis module 100 and the connecting sleeve 300.

[0065] In other embodiments, the locking block 115 can be disposed on the inner sidewall of the connecting sleeve 300, and the locking slot 310 can be disposed on the outer sidewall of the electrolysis module 100, that is, relative to... Figure 2 and Figure 3 In the embodiment shown, the positions of the card block 115 and the card slot 310 are interchanged, and the cooperation between the card block 115 and the card slot 310 can satisfy the purpose of fixing the connecting sleeve 300 and the electrolysis module 100.

[0066] Reference Figure 3As shown, the connecting sleeve 300 is provided with multiple through holes 330, which are arranged at intervals along the circumference of the connecting sleeve 300 and penetrate the connecting sleeve 300 axially. The base 200 is provided with multiple connecting holes 231, which correspond one-to-one with the multiple through holes 330. The disinfection device 1000 also includes multiple fasteners, which correspond one-to-one with the multiple through holes 330. The fasteners pass through the through holes 330 and connect to the connecting holes 231, realizing the fixed connection between the connecting sleeve 300 and the base 200, and ensuring a more reliable connection structure between the electrolysis module 100 and the connecting sleeve 300.

[0067] Specifically, the fastener can be a bolt, and the connecting hole 231 can be a threaded hole that matches the bolt. The bolt passes through the through hole 330 from top to bottom and is threaded into the connecting hole 231. The number of fasteners and connecting holes 231 can be selected according to the actual installation requirements to ensure that the connecting sleeve 300 can be fixed on the base 200 and that the connecting sleeve 300 can stably support the disinfection module.

[0068] Reference Figure 3 As shown, in some embodiments, the base 200 is provided with two positioning blocks 232, and the outer wall of the electrolysis module 100 is provided with two positioning grooves 116. The positioning blocks 232 and the positioning grooves 116 are inserted into each other in a one-to-one manner, which plays a positioning role for the electrolysis module 100 and the base 200, so that the water inlet connector 210 can be inserted into the water inlet 111 and the water outlet connector 220 can be inserted into the water outlet 112, thereby realizing the rapid assembly of the electrolysis module 100.

[0069] In this embodiment, two positioning blocks 232 protrude from the upper surface of the boss 230 and are symmetrically distributed. The positioning blocks 232 are roughly square columns, and two positioning grooves 116 are provided on opposite sides of the housing 110. Of course, the number of positioning blocks 232 and positioning grooves 116 is not limited to two. The specific number can be selected according to the installation requirements. For example, one, three or more positioning blocks 232 and positioning grooves 116 can be provided.

[0070] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 4As shown, to ensure that the disinfection device 1000 does not leak during operation, the electrolysis module 100 is equipped with a sealing structure. Specifically, a sealing gasket 130 is installed at the bottom of the housing 110. The sealing gasket 130 has two sealing ports 131, which correspond to the inlet 111 and the outlet 112, respectively. It is understood that the sealing gasket 130 is made of elastic materials such as rubber or silicone, and has a certain degree of elasticity. When the inlet connector 210 extends into the inlet 111 and the outlet connector 220 extends into the outlet 112, the two sealing ports 131 are deformed under pressure and abut against the outer walls of the inlet connector 210 and the outlet connector 220, allowing the two sealing ports 131 to respectively wrap around the inlet connector 210 and the outlet connector 220, forming a good sealing structure.

[0071] It should be noted that the diameter of the sealing port 131 is smaller than the diameter of the inlet port 111 and the outlet port 112. When the inlet connector 210 and the outlet connector 220 push open the sealing port 131 respectively, the sealing gasket 130 deforms at the sealing port 131, so that the sealing gasket 130 fits against the outer peripheral wall of the inlet connector 210 and the outlet connector 220, which has a better sealing effect.

[0072] Furthermore, a sealing groove 114 is provided at the bottom of the housing 110. The shape of the sealing groove 114 is adapted to the shape of the sealing gasket 130. The inlet 111 and outlet 112 are located on the bottom wall of the sealing groove 114. The sealing gasket 130 is installed in the sealing groove 114, and the bottom surface of the sealing gasket 130 is flush with the bottom surface of the housing 110. This design not only better fixes the sealing gasket 130 and prevents it from shifting during use, but also improves the sealing performance, ensuring that water does not leak from the inlet 111 and outlet 112. In some embodiments, the sealing gasket 130 can also be further fixed by adhesive or other means to improve structural reliability.

[0073] Reference Figure 2 As shown, the sealing gasket 130 is elongated, with two sealing openings 131 located at its two ends. When the electrolysis module 100 is separated from the base 200, the two sealing openings 131 are sealed, preventing water from the electrolysis chamber 113 from leaking from the inlet 111 or outlet 112. This is only one example of the sealing gasket 130; its shape and structure are not limited to this, as long as the sealing openings 131 remain sealed after the electrolysis module 100 is separated.

[0074] Reference Figure 4 and Figure 5As shown, the housing 110 is provided with an inlet channel 150 and an outlet channel 160. The inlet channel 150 connects the inlet port 111 to the electrolysis chamber 113, and the outlet channel 160 connects the outlet port 112 to the electrolysis chamber 113. The inner walls of the inlet channel 150 and the outlet channel 160 are respectively provided with openings communicating with the electrolysis chamber 113. Switching assemblies are respectively provided in the inlet channel 150 and the outlet channel 160. When the inlet connector 210 extends into the inlet port 111 and the outlet connector 220 extends into the outlet port 112, the switching assemblies can open the inlet channel 150 and the outlet channel 160.

[0075] Specifically, the switch assembly within the water inlet channel 150 is a first switch assembly, and the switch assembly within the water outlet channel 160 includes a second switch assembly. The first switch assembly includes a first movable plug 151 and a first elastic element 152, both disposed within the water inlet channel 150. One end of the water inlet channel 150 communicates with the electrolysis chamber 113, and the other end communicates with the water inlet 111. The first elastic element 152 provides a spring force to the first movable plug 151 toward the water inlet 111, allowing the first movable plug 151 to move toward the water inlet 111. When the electrolysis module 100 separates from the base 200, the first movable plug 151 cooperates with the sealing gasket 130 to seal the water inlet 111, forming a sealed structure to prevent water leakage from the water inlet 111.

[0076] The second switching assembly includes a second movable plug 161 and a second elastic element 162. Both the second movable plug 161 and the second elastic element 162 are disposed within a water inlet channel 150. Two ends of the water inlet channel 150 are connected to the electrolysis chamber 113, and the other two ends are connected to the water outlet 112. The second elastic element 162 provides a spring force to the second movable plug 161 towards the water outlet 112, allowing the second movable plug 161 to move towards the water outlet 112. When the electrolysis module 100 is separated from the base 200, the second movable plug 161 cooperates with the sealing gasket 130 to seal the water outlet 112, forming a sealed structure to prevent water leakage from the water outlet 112.

[0077] In some embodiments, both the first elastic element 152 and the second elastic element 162 are springs, capable of providing a stable elastic force. Taking the first elastic element 152 as an example, one end of the spring is connected to one end of the water inlet channel 150, and the other end is connected to the first movable plug 151. The spring pushes the first movable plug 151 to press tightly against the sealing port 131, forming an effective seal for the water inlet 111.

[0078] Reference Figure 4As shown, it can be understood that when the electrolysis module 100 is connected to the base 200, the water inlet connector 210 enters the water inlet channel 150 through the sealing port 131 and pushes the first movable plug 151 to move away from the water inlet 111, so that the first movable plug 151 opens the water inlet 111. At this time, the opening in the water inlet channel 150 is connected to the water inlet flow channel 211 in the water inlet connector 210, so as to realize the connection between the water inlet flow channel 211 and the electrolysis chamber 113. Meanwhile, the water outlet connector 220 enters the water outlet channel 160 through the sealing port 131 and pushes the second movable plug 161 to move away from the water outlet 112, so that the second movable plug 161 opens the water outlet 112. At this time, the opening in the water outlet channel 160 is connected to the water outlet flow channel 221 in the water outlet connector 220, realizing the connection between the water outlet flow channel 221 and the electrolysis chamber 113. In addition, after the water inlet connector 210 and the water outlet connector 220 pass through the sealing port 131, the sealing port 131 can wrap the water inlet connector 210 and the water outlet connector 220 to form a sealing structure.

[0079] It should be noted that the shapes of the first movable plug 151 and the second movable plug 161 are not limited. Figure 4 and Figure 5 The embodiment shown can also be spherical or other structures that match and seal the sealing port 131. Of course, the first elastic element 152 and the second elastic element 162 are not limited to springs, but can also be elastic structures capable of pushing the first movable plug 151 and the second movable plug 161 to move.

[0080] Reference Figure 4 As shown, in some embodiments, the ends of the water inlet connector 210 and the water outlet connector 220 are respectively provided with push rods 240. The push rods 240 protrude from the ports of the water inlet connector 210 and the water outlet connector 220. The push rods 240 on the water inlet connector 210 extend axially into the water inlet channel 211, and the push rods 240 on the water outlet connector 220 extend axially into the water outlet channel 221. The push rods 240 are flat so that they do not affect the water flow in the water inlet channel 211 and the water outlet channel 221.

[0081] Figure 4The diagram shows the switch assembly in the open state. It can be understood that the push rod 240 of the water inlet connector 210 pushes the first movable plug 151 upwards. The first movable plug 151 moves against the spring force, creating a gap between the first movable plug 151 and the port of the water inlet connector 210. This ensures that the water inlet channel 211 is connected to the electrolysis chamber 113 and prevents the first movable plug 151 from blocking the port of the water inlet connector 210. Similarly, the push rod 240 of the water outlet connector 220 pushes the second movable plug 161 upwards. The second movable plug 161 moves against the spring force, creating a gap between the second movable plug 161 and the port of the water outlet connector 220. This ensures that the water outlet channel 221 is connected to the electrolysis chamber 113 and prevents the second movable plug 161 from blocking the port of the water outlet connector 220. This opens the water inlet channel 150 and the water outlet channel 160, allowing water to flow smoothly into and out of the electrolysis chamber 113. This design makes water circuit control more convenient and reliable. The water circuit will only be open when the inlet connector 210 and outlet connector 220 are correctly installed, effectively avoiding water leakage caused by misoperation.

[0082] Reference Figure 6 As shown, the first conductive part 120 includes two connecting rods, both of which are metal connecting rods, and the two connecting rods are respectively connected to the electrolysis assembly 140. One of the connecting rods is a positive electrode connecting rod 123 and the other is a negative electrode connecting rod 124. The lower ends of the two connecting rods protrude from the bottom of the housing 110 to form a positive electrode contact 121 and a negative electrode contact 122.

[0083] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 6 As shown, the second conductive part 260 includes a positive conductive sheet 261 and a negative conductive sheet 262. The base 200 is provided with a mounting groove and a pressure plate 250. The pressure plate 250 is adapted to the mounting groove. The positive conductive sheet 261 and the negative conductive sheet 262 are disposed in the mounting groove. The pressure plate 250 is installed in the mounting groove. The positive conductive sheet 261 and the negative conductive sheet 262 can be pressed tightly in the mounting groove by the pressure plate 250. The pressure plate 250 is provided with openings 251 corresponding to the positive conductive sheet 261 and the negative conductive sheet 262. That is, part of the structure of the positive conductive sheet 261 and the negative conductive sheet 262 is exposed through the openings 251, which facilitates the positive contact 121 to contact the positive conductive sheet 261 for conduction, and the negative contact 122 to contact the negative conductive sheet 262 for conduction.

[0084] Figure 6The diagram shows that the electrolysis module 100 and the base 200 are connected. At this time, the positive contact 121 is in contact with the positive conductive sheet 261 through the opening 251, and the negative contact 122 is in contact with the negative conductive sheet 262 through the opening 251. Both the positive conductive sheet 261 and the negative conductive sheet 262 are connected to the power supply line 290, thereby realizing the power supply to the electrolysis module 100.

[0085] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 7 As shown, the base 200 is provided with a first connecting part 270 and a second connecting part 280. The first connecting part 270 is used to install a solenoid valve 400, and the second connecting part 280 is used to install a disinfectant information acquisition module. The solenoid valve 400 is used to control the opening and closing of the water inlet channel 211, thereby controlling the water inlet of the electrolysis module 100. The disinfectant information acquisition module is used to dynamically monitor the concentration of the disinfectant water produced by the electrolysis module 100. The disinfectant information acquisition module uses an ORP (oxidation-reduction potential) sensor to provide real-time feedback on the disinfection effectiveness, ensuring that the concentration of the produced disinfectant water is always maintained within a suitable range to meet the requirements of different application scenarios for disinfectant water concentration.

[0086] The first connecting part 270 and the second connecting part 280 are both mounting platforms protruding from the base 200. The first connecting part 270 is provided with a first water inlet 271 and a first water outlet 272, which are respectively connected to the solenoid valve 400. The first water inlet 271 is used to connect to the outlet end of the primary filter element of the water purifier, and the first water outlet 272 is connected to the water inlet channel 211. The second connecting part 280 is provided with a second water inlet 281 and a second water outlet 282, which are respectively connected to the information acquisition module. The second water inlet 281 is connected to the water outlet channel 221, and the second water outlet 282 is used to connect to the water outlet pipe of the water purifier, and to provide disinfected water to the user through the water outlet pipe.

[0087] It should be noted that the base 200 can be made of high-strength engineering plastic, which has good insulation properties and mechanical strength, effectively supporting and protecting the internal connection structure, while preventing safety issues such as leakage.

[0088] For ease of understanding, embodiments of this utility model also provide a water purification device, and specific embodiments of the water purification device are described below.

[0089] Reference Figure 8As shown, the water purification equipment includes the disinfection device 1000 of the above embodiment. In the water purification equipment, the raw water first undergoes primary filtration to remove large particulate impurities, sediment, etc. Then, the preliminarily purified water enters the electrolysis chamber 113 of the electrolysis module 100 through the inlet connector 210 of the disinfection device 1000. In the electrolysis chamber 113, it undergoes electrolysis treatment to be converted into disinfected water. Finally, the disinfected water is discharged to the outlet pipeline through the outlet connector 220, which can be used to meet the user's disinfection needs.

[0090] Because the disinfection device 1000 adopts the above-mentioned structural design, the pipeline connection structure between the water purification equipment and the disinfection device 1000 is simplified, which facilitates quick disassembly and installation of the disinfection module. This helps to simplify the overall structure of the water purification equipment, improve installation and maintenance efficiency, reduce maintenance costs, and thus improve the user experience.

[0091] Reference Figure 8 As shown, specifically, the water purification equipment includes a primary filter element 2000, a disinfection water path 3000, and a pure water path 4000. The inlet of the primary filter element 2000 is connected to an external water supply system, which can be a tap water supply pipeline to provide tap water to the water system. The outlet of the primary filter element 2000 is connected to both the disinfection water path 3000 and the pure water path 4000. The primary filter element 2000 performs initial filtration of the tap water, removing large particles such as sediment and rust, preventing these impurities from entering the disinfection water path 3000 and the pure water path 4000.

[0092] The disinfection water circuit 3000 includes a disinfection device 1000. The inlet of the disinfection device 1000 is connected to the outlet of the primary filter component 2000. The water filtered by the primary filter component 2000 enters the disinfection device 1000. The disinfection device 1000 electrolyzes the water provided by the primary filter component 2000 to produce electrolyzed water.

[0093] The disinfection water circuit 3000 is equipped with a second booster pump 3100, which is used to increase the water pressure to ensure that the water flow can enter the disinfection device 1000 at a suitable pressure, meet the water pressure requirements of the water electrolysis reaction, and ensure the efficient and stable operation of the electrolysis process.

[0094] The disinfection water circuit 3000 also includes a second pressure relief water circuit 3200. When the pressure in the disinfection water circuit 3000 rises abnormally and exceeds the preset safety pressure threshold, the second pressure relief water circuit 3200 automatically opens to discharge the excess water directly to the disinfection water outlet, thereby reducing the pressure in the water circuit and protecting the electrolysis device and the entire disinfection water circuit 3000.

[0095] The pure water circuit 4000 includes a secondary filtration component 4100. The inlet of the secondary filtration component 4100 is connected to the outlet of the primary filtration component 2000. Water filtered by the primary filtration component 2000 enters the secondary filtration component 4100. The secondary filtration component 4100 performs secondary filtration on the filtered water provided by the primary filtration component 2000 to produce pure water and improve the water's cleanliness.

[0096] The primary filtration component 2000 includes a pre-filter 2100 and a post-filter 2200. The inlet of the pre-filter 2100 is connected to the external water supply system, and the outlet of the pre-filter 2100 is connected to the disinfection device 1000 and the secondary filtration component 4100. The pre-filter 2100 is used to perform primary filtration on the water supplied by the external water supply system, and the filtered water is delivered to the disinfection device 1000 and the secondary filtration component 4100. The inlet of the post-filter 2200 is connected to the outlet of the secondary filtration component 4100. The post-filter 2200 is used to perform secondary filtration on the water output from the pure water circuit 4000. After filtration by the post-filter 2200, pure water is output, thereby improving the purification effect of the water circuit system.

[0097] In this embodiment, the secondary filtration component 4100 includes an RO membrane filter element, which has high-precision filtration capabilities and can remove impurities such as heavy metals, bacteria, and organic matter from the water. The inlet end of the RO membrane filter element is connected to the outlet end of the first booster pump 4200, and the outlet end of the RO membrane filter element is connected to the inlet end of the post-filter element 2200. The first booster pump 4200 increases the water pressure, providing a stable operating pressure for the RO membrane filter element and ensuring reverse osmosis filtration efficiency.

[0098] The pure water circuit 4000 also includes a first pressure relief circuit 4300. When the pressure of the pure water circuit 4000 rises abnormally and exceeds the preset safety pressure threshold, the first pressure relief circuit 4300 opens, directing excess water to the post-filter 2200, so that some water does not pass through the secondary filter component 4100, thus avoiding damage to the secondary filter component 4100 caused by high pressure.

[0099] In this embodiment, the secondary filtration component 4100 has a drain outlet, which is connected to a wastewater outlet through a wastewater discharge path 4400 to discharge the wastewater generated by the RO membrane filter element.

[0100] In this embodiment, the external water-using component is a faucet 6000, which has a disinfection water outlet and a pure water outlet. The disinfection water outlet is connected to the outlet of the disinfection water circuit 3000, and the pure water outlet is connected to the outlet of the pure water circuit 4000. The faucet 6000 can output disinfection water or pure water according to the user's selection.

[0101] The water purification equipment also includes a domestic water circuit 5000, the inlet of which is connected to the outlet of the pre-filter 2100. The faucet 6000 also has a domestic water outlet, the outlet of which is connected to the domestic water outlet of the domestic water circuit 5000. This allows users to obtain domestic water through the faucet 6000, which undergoes primary filtration to meet daily needs.

[0102] It should be noted that, in the embodiment, the disinfectant water circuit 3000, the pure water circuit 4000, the sewage circuit 4400 and the domestic water circuit 5000 are respectively equipped with switch valves to control the opening and closing of the corresponding water circuits.

[0103] When a user needs to prepare purified water, the water flows through the pre-filter 2100 for primary filtration and then enters the purified water circuit 4000. The first booster pump 4200 pressurizes the water after primary filtration to the pressure required by the RO membrane filter. After secondary filtration through the RO membrane filter, the water flows from the outlet of the RO membrane filter to the post-filter 2200. After being filtered again by the post-filter 2200, the purified water is discharged from the faucet 6000.

[0104] When a user needs to prepare disinfectant water, the water flows through the pre-filter 2100 for primary filtration and then enters the disinfectant water circuit 3000. The second booster pump 3100 pressurizes the filtered water to the pressure required by the disinfection device 1000. After electrolysis by the disinfection device 1000, electrolyzed water is produced and then discharged from the faucet 6000.

[0105] When domestic water is needed, the pure water circuit 4000 and the disinfectant water circuit 3000 are closed. After the water flows through the pre-filter 2100 for primary filtration, it is directly discharged from the domestic water circuit 5000 to the faucet 6000, allowing for quick access to domestic water.

[0106] Of course, this utility model is not limited to the above-described embodiments. Those skilled in the art can make equivalent modifications or substitutions without departing from the spirit of this utility model. All such equivalent modifications or substitutions are included within the scope defined by the claims of this application.
