Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of water purification technology, and in particular to a lifting device and a water purifier with automatic water outlet height adjustment. Background Technology

[0002] As the global water purification equipment market continues to expand, water purifiers have evolved from simple water filtering tools into crucial components of the smart home ecosystem. Driven by the wave of smart technology, consumer demand for water purification equipment has transcended basic drinking water safety, rapidly evolving towards intelligent interaction, convenient operation, and a user-friendly experience. However, current mainstream products still exhibit significant technological gaps in user experience, particularly in the human-computer interaction design of the water outlet unit, which urgently requires innovation.

[0003] The mechanical interaction design of traditional water purifiers has revealed significant limitations. Most commercially available products still use a fixed-height water outlet design, with only a small number of high-end models equipped with a manual adjustment device. This mechanical structure not only restricts the water-filling posture (users need to frequently bend over or elevate the water container), but also poses safety hazards. In typical usage scenarios, users need to simultaneously perform multiple tasks such as positioning the water container, operating the switch, and monitoring the water level, which strongly conflicts with modern people's frequent mobile device usage habits. In summary, the shortcomings of existing technology are mainly reflected in three aspects: First, mechanical height adjustment relies on physical adjustment, resulting in low adjustment accuracy and a lack of memory function; second, the touch switch design does not consider scenarios where one hand is used or the operation cannot be terminated, and if the cup is low, the water flow may splash, potentially scalding the user if it is boiling water; third, the lack of a smart sensing system means that dynamic tracking of the water container's posture is not achieved.

[0035] See Figure 1-6 , Figure 1-6 A schematic diagram of an automatic water outlet height adjustment lifting device 10 according to an embodiment of this application is shown. The lifting device 10 provided in this embodiment includes a detection element 100, an adjustment assembly 200, and a controller. The detection element 100 is used to detect whether there is a water receiving container within a set area and to detect the distance between the water outlet 31 and the edge of the water receiving container. The adjustment assembly 200 includes a moving component 210 and a driving component 220. The detection element 100 is tractively connected to the moving component 210; the driving component 220 is tractively connected to the moving component 210 to drive the moving component 210 and the detection element 100 to move synchronously along a first direction, where the first direction is defined as the orientation of the water outlet 31. The controller controls the driving component 220 to operate based on feedback from the detection element 100, so that the moving component 210 and the detection element 100 move to a preset position.

[0036] One embodiment of this application provides a water purifier, including a front panel 20 and the aforementioned lifting device 10. The lifting device 10 is connected to the front panel 20, and the detection element 100 and the driving element 220 are respectively located on both sides of the front panel 20.

[0037] The aforementioned automatic water outlet height adjustment device 10 and water purifier, through the setting of adjustment component 200 and detection element 100 that detects the action in real time, can realize automatic height adjustment of the water outlet position according to different sizes of water containers, avoiding the inconvenience of manual operation by users and preventing dangerous accidents. At the same time, this application is easy to integrate into the automatic control system of the water purifier, enhancing the competitiveness and intelligence of the product. The lifting device 10 realizes an integrated modular design, which facilitates modular replacement and maintenance during after-sales maintenance, facilitates installation and operation in large-scale production, improves production efficiency, and reduces the knowledge level requirements of production personnel.

[0038] In one embodiment, the driving member 220 includes a track 221 disposed along the first direction and a driving source 222. The moving member 210 is drively connected to the track 221, and the driving source 222 is used to drive the track 221 to move, so that the moving member 210 moves along the first direction. Figure 3 As indicated by the arrows, the first direction is defined as the up and down direction when the user is facing the lifting device 10.

[0039] Specifically, the drive source 222 can be one or more of an electric drive source 222, a hydraulic drive source 222, and a pneumatic drive source 222. An electric drive source 222 refers to a drive source 222 that provides power through electricity, and can include electric motors, electric actuators, etc. A hydraulic drive source 222 utilizes the force of liquid to transmit power and generate motion. A hydraulic drive source 222 can be a hydraulic pump, a hydraulic cylinder, a hydraulic motor, etc. A pneumatic drive source 222 utilizes the force of gas to transmit power and generate motion. A pneumatic drive source 222 can be a pneumatic cylinder, a pneumatic motor, a pneumatic valve, etc. Figure 5 , 6 In the illustrated embodiment, for example, the drive source 222 is a small reversible motor to drive the moving part 210 to reciprocate along the first direction on the track 221.

[0040] The track 221 is a lead screw with threads on its outer surface, and the moving part 210 is a sleeve with a threaded hole and fitted on the lead screw. Under the action of the drive source 222, the lead screw rotates clockwise or counterclockwise around the first direction to drive the sleeve to move upward or downward along the first direction on the lead screw.

[0041] In one embodiment, the adjustment assembly 200 includes a guide rod 260, which is disposed on both sides of the track 221 and parallel to the track 221. The moving member 210 is sleeved on the guide rod 260 and slidably connected to the guide rod 260.

[0042] In one embodiment, a first limit switch 240 and a second limit switch 250 are respectively provided at both ends of the track 221. When the moving part 210 contacts the first limit switch 240 or the second limit switch 250, the controller controls the driving part 220 to stop working.

[0043] Specifically, the first limit switch 240 and the second limit switch 250 are inductive or contact-type signal trigger switches. The first limit switch 240 and the second limit switch 250 are used to limit the extreme positions of the moving part 210. One of the first limit switch 240 and the second limit switch 250 limits the upper limit position, and the other limits the lower limit position. When the lifting device 10 reaches its adjustment limit or needs to return to the upper limit position after water discharge, the moving part 210 moves to the upper or lower limit position, and the first limit switch 240 or the second limit switch 250 sends a signal to the controller, which then controls the drive component 220 to stop working.

[0044] In one embodiment, the adjustment assembly 200 further includes a bracket 230, which has recessed mounting positions, including a first mounting position 231 and a second mounting position 232. The first mounting position 231 and the second mounting position 232 are respectively used to set the track 221 and the drive source 222. The two ends of the bracket 230 are used to connect to the side of the front panel 20 opposite to the detection element 100, and a cavity for accommodating the drive member 220 is formed between the front panel 20 and the mounting positions.

[0045] Specifically, the bracket 230 has a recessed first mounting position 231 and a second mounting position 232. A partition 233 is provided between the first mounting position 231 and the second mounting position 232 to at least partially isolate the cavities corresponding to the first mounting position and the second mounting position 232. The output shaft of the drive source 222 passes through the partition 233 and is connected to the track 221. One end of the track 221 is fixed to one end of the bracket 230, and the other end of the track 221 is connected to the drive source 222. One of the first limit switches 240 and the second limit switch 250 is located at one end of the bracket 230, and the other is located at the partition 233. One end of the guide rod 260 is fixed to one end of the bracket 230, and the other end of the guide rod 260 is fixed to the partition 233. The guide rod 260 is located between the track 221 and the bracket 230.

[0046] The recessed first mounting position 231 and the second mounting position 232 form a cavity with the front panel 20. The bracket 230 is boat-shaped, and the two ends of the bracket 230 are higher than the bottom of the first mounting position 231 or the second mounting position 232, so that the two ends of the bracket 230 can abut against the surface of the front panel 20. The bracket 230 is fixedly connected or detachably connected to the front panel 20 through the two ends.

[0047] The front panel 20 forms part of the water purifier's outer casing and is located on the side of the casing facing the user. For example... Figure 1 As shown, the front panel 20 includes: a sliding area 21, on which the water outlet assembly 30 is slidably disposed; and a water receiving area, which is provided with a container rack for placing different water receiving containers. The water receiving area is located below the sliding area 21 and is the designated area. Specifically, the length of the sliding area 21 can limit the range of motion of the water outlet assembly 30, that is, limit the adjustment range of the adjustment assembly 200.

[0048] Thus, through the design of the mounting position of the bracket 230, the relevant structures of the lifting device 10 are all integrated on both sides of the front panel 20, resulting in a compact overall structure and reducing the size of the water purifier. By setting the lead screw-shaped track 221, the drive source 222 can use an ordinary motor to realize the function of the adjustment component 200, which occupies little space on the bracket 230 and reduces the overall cost.

[0049] In one embodiment, the water purifier further includes a water outlet assembly 30, which has a water outlet 31 and the detection element 100, and the water outlet 31 and the detection element 100 are located on the same side of the front panel 20.

[0050] Specifically, the water outlet 31 is connected to the water system inside the water purifier via a pipe. The controller can control whether water flows out of the water outlet 31, the type of water flowing out of the water outlet 31 (such as sparkling water, pure water, purified water, cold water, room temperature water, and hot water), and the amount of water flowing out (i.e., how long the water will flow before stopping) based on the received signals. The water outlet 31 and the detection element 100 are both part of the modular water outlet assembly 30's internal structure, thus achieving synchronous movement. The detection element 100 can detect the distance to the water container in real time based on the movement. The water outlet 31 and the detection element 100 are located on the side of the front panel 20 opposite to the bracket 230, the drive source 222, and the track 221.

[0051] In one embodiment, the water outlet assembly 30 includes a housing 32, the water outlet 31 and the detection element 100 are disposed on the housing 32, the moving member 210 is connected to the housing 32 of the water outlet assembly 30, and the moving member 210 can drive the housing 32 to move synchronously; the front panel 20 is provided with a movement port, and at least a portion of the housing 32 or at least a portion of the moving member 210 can pass through the movement port.

[0052] The housing 32 forms a receiving space to house part of the structure of the outlet 31, the piping connecting the outlet 31 and the water system, and the detection element 100. The end of the outlet 31 can pass through the housing 32. The housing 32 includes a bottom surface that is substantially perpendicular to the front panel 20 (i.e., parallel to the container shelf). The outlet 31 and the detection element 100 are both located on the bottom surface. The sensing signals emitted and received by the detection element 100 are configured to pass through the bottom surface to prevent water stains from interfering with the operation of the detection element 100. In particular, the detection element 100 is located between the outlet 31 and the front panel 20.

[0053] Furthermore, the moving part 210 is connected to the upper part of the housing 32 away from the bottom surface, and the connection point between the moving part 210 and the housing 32 is farther away from the outlet 31 than the detection element 100. In particular, the outlet 31 and the connection point can be arranged diagonally.

[0054] In one embodiment, the detection element 100 is an infrared sensing detection element or an acoustic wave reflection detection element. The emitter within the infrared sensing detection element 100 emits a beam of light, which is reflected after illuminating an object, forming a light spot on a sensor (such as a PSD or CMOS array). As the distance to the object changes, the position of the reflected light spot moves accordingly, and the distance is calculated using geometric triangulation. The infrared sensing detection element 100 is low-cost, suitable for short distances (0.1m~2m), and can perform three-dimensional detection. It is understood that the detection element 100 can also be a laser or radar detection element 100.

[0055] In one embodiment, the detection element 100 includes a first detection mode and a second detection mode. In the first detection mode, the detection element 100 is used to detect whether there is a water container within a set area and to detect the distance between the water outlet 31 and the edge of the water container. In the second detection mode, the detection element 100 can detect the liquid level in the water container. The first and second detection modes of the detection element 100 enable multi-functional reuse, realizing the functions of cup height detection and water full detection.

[0056] Specifically, the first detection mode is executed first. The detection object of the first detection mode is the water receiving container. When the first detection mode determines that "there is a water receiving container" and calculates the distance between the outlet 31 and the edge of the water receiving container, the controller controls the adjustment component 200 to move the outlet 31 to a preset position that matches the water receiving container and controls the water system to start supplying water. At this time, the controller switches to the second detection mode. In the second detection mode, the water receiving container starts to receive water from the outlet 31, and the detection element 100 adjusts the detection object to the liquid level inside the water receiving container, measures the distance to the liquid level in real time, and thus detects the liquid level height inside the water receiving container in real time. At the same time, the detection element 100 compares the liquid level height with the edge height of the water receiving container to determine whether the water system is stopped.

[0057] Understandably, the detection element 100 is provided with one detection mode and a second detection mode that can be switched, or the detection element 100 is provided with two modular settings, and the first detection mode and the second detection mode are switched by switching the detection element 100.

[0058] The following describes the operation of the lifting device 10 in the water purifier:

[0059] After the water purifier is turned on, the controller will initialize the lifting device 10. Based on the first limit switch 240 and the second limit switch 250 set at the upper and lower ends, the controller will find the highest point position so that the lifting device 10 can drive the water outlet component 30 to the highest point position, which is the initial state of the lifting device 10.

[0060] The detection element 100 operates in the first detection mode. Based on infrared principles, the detection element 100 emits infrared light to detect the presence of a water-receiving container below and calculates its height. When a water-receiving container is present, the detection element 100 calculates the height difference between the water outlet unit and the edge of the water-receiving container using a built-in algorithm. The detection element 100 sends this data to the controller. Based on the height difference data received from the detection element 100 and the instructions defined in the control program, the controller drives the adjustment component 200. At this time, the drive source 222 of the adjustment component 200 operates, causing the track 221 to rotate around a first direction. The track 221 engages with the threaded inner hole of the moving part 210, thereby causing the moving part 210 on the track 221 to reach a specified height. The water outlet component 30 is fixed to the moving part 210 of the lifting device 10, thus realizing the raising and lowering of the water outlet component 30. Meanwhile, guide rods 260 are provided on both sides of the track 221 to keep the sliding seat stable during linear movement. First and second limit switches 250 are provided at the upper and lower ends of the track 221 to limit the movement stroke of the sliding seat.

[0061] When the water outlet component 30 moves to the preset position, the water system starts supplying water, water flows out of the water outlet 31, or the water receiving container starts receiving water from the water outlet 31, the detection element 100 runs the second detection mode. The detection element 100 measures based on the principle of infrared radiation. The detection element 100 detects the distance between itself and the liquid surface of the water receiving container by emitting infrared radiation. The infrared radiation is reflected back on the water surface and received by the detection element 100. The detection element 100 calculates the liquid level of the water receiving container through an internal algorithm based on the time difference between the infrared radiation emission and reception. At the same time, the detection element 100 compares the liquid level height with the height of the edge of the water receiving container to make a judgment. Thus, before the liquid level drops below the height of the edge of the water receiving container, the detection element 100 sends the "full" instruction data to the controller of the water purifier, thereby stopping the water dispensing.

[0062] After the cup is full, the lifting device 10, under the control of the water purifier's controller, realizes the reverse rotation of the drive source 222 and the track 221, which drives the water outlet component 30 to rise. When the moving part 210 touches the limit switch, it stops moving, returns to the initial state, and is ready for the next working state.

[0063] The technical features of the above embodiments can be combined in any way. For the sake of brevity, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.

[0064] The embodiments described above are merely illustrative of several implementation methods of this application, and while the descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, they should not be construed as limiting the scope of the patent application. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the concept of this application, and these all fall within the protection scope of this application. Therefore, the protection scope of this patent application should be determined by the appended claims.
