Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to a water heater, specifically an electric water heater with leakage protection, and belongs to the field of water heater technology. Background Technology

[0002] A water heater is a device that heats cold water into hot water. It is widely used in homes and public places for bathing, cleaning, and other daily needs. Based on the heating energy source, water heaters are mainly divided into electric water heaters, gas water heaters, and solar water heaters. Among them, electric water heaters use electricity as a heating source and have advantages such as easy installation, safe use, and stable heating. They are divided into storage type and instantaneous type, suitable for various household environments, and are one of the most common types of water heaters currently available.

[0003] Electric water heaters pose a high risk of electric shock, especially when the body is wet during showering, which reduces resistance and makes it easy for current to flow through the water or metal parts, potentially causing fatal electric shock accidents.

[0004] In existing technologies, leakage protection is often achieved by installing a residual current device (RCD). The RCD detects the current difference between the live and neutral wires. If leakage occurs, such as current flowing to the ground wire or a human body, it automatically cuts off the power. However, if the grounding system itself fails, the RCD will not function effectively. Furthermore, RCDs are externally installed, relying on user maintenance and are easily overlooked or removed. Therefore, this paper proposes an electric water heater with leakage protection. Utility Model Content

[0005] This utility model proposes an electric water heater with leakage protection, which can directly shut off the water outlet pipe when the electric water heater leaks electricity, thereby solving the problem of water flowing through the human body and causing fatal electric shock accidents.

[0006] This utility model is achieved through the following technical solution: an electric water heater with leakage protection, including an electric water heater, the electric water heater including an outlet pipe, the electric water heater also including a tank and an inlet pipe, the tank being composed of an outer shell, an inner tank and an insulation layer, the inlet pipe and the outlet pipe being installed at the bottom of the tank, and the inlet pipe and the outlet pipe being connected to the inside of the tank.

[0007] Both the inlet and outlet pipes are equipped with one-way valves. A heating rod is installed inside the tank. A control component is installed on the outside of the tank. The control component is used to adjust the working status of each component in the tank's water pipes, such as setting the temperature, controlling the heating time, and displaying operating parameters.

[0008] An anode protection magnesium rod is installed at the bottom of the tank, extending into the interior of the tank. The anode protection magnesium rod protects the interior of the tank from ion corrosion in the water through its own electrochemical corrosion. Magnesium is more reactive than iron. This extends the service life of the tank.

[0009] It also includes a leakage protection component, which is installed on the water outlet pipe. The leakage protection component includes a pipe body, and a valve body is connected to the pipe body. A valve cover and a drive component are installed inside the valve body, and a sealing gasket is fixed on the valve cover.

[0010] The pipe body is equipped with a baffle and a sealing ring. The baffle is also installed inside the pipe body via a driving component. The valve cover is used to control the communication state between the pipe body and the valve body. Figure 3 When the valve is in the leakage protection state, the pipe body and valve body are not connected, and water cannot enter the outlet pipe.

[0011] The driving component includes a leakage current monitor, which is installed on the tank body. The driving component also includes an electromagnet, which is fixed to the inner wall of the valve body. A moving iron core is slidably arranged inside the valve body, and the left end of the moving iron core is fixed to the valve cover.

[0012] The moving iron core is slidably disposed in the tube body through an elastic component, which includes a first compression spring and a second compression spring. The second compression spring is fixed between the right end of the moving iron core and the valve body, and the first compression spring is fixed between the right side of the valve cover and the cross plate. The elastic force of the first compression spring and the second compression spring can drive the moving iron core to reset.

[0013] The valve body has a horizontal plate, and the moving iron core is slidably disposed in the valve body through the horizontal plate. A guide sleeve is fixed on the horizontal plate, and the moving iron core is slidably connected in the guide sleeve. The horizontal plate and the guide sleeve can guide the moving iron core.

[0014] This utility model provides an electric water heater with leakage protection, which has the following beneficial effects:

[0015] 1. When a leakage current occurs in this electric water heater with leakage protection, the leakage current detector will detect the leakage information and energize the electromagnet. The electromagnet's magnetism will drive the moving iron core, valve cover, and sealing gasket to move. The valve cover and sealing gasket will then press against the sealing ring and baffle, preventing water from entering the outlet pipe. This device can directly shut off the outlet pipe when a leakage occurs in the tank, thus solving the problem of water flowing through the human body and causing fatal electric shock accidents.

The anode protection magnesium rod 104 protects the interior of the tank 101 from ion corrosion in the water through its own electrochemical corrosion. Magnesium is more reactive than iron. This extends the service life of the tank.

[0027] Please refer to this carefully. Figure 3 and Figure 4It also includes a leakage protection component 2, which is installed on the water outlet pipe 103. The leakage protection component 2 includes a pipe body 201, a valve body 202 connected to the pipe body 201, a valve cover 203 and a drive component are installed inside the valve body 202, and a sealing gasket 212 is fixed on the valve cover 203.

[0028] A baffle 204 and a sealing ring 205 are provided inside the pipe body 201. The baffle 204 is provided inside the pipe body 201 via a driving component. The valve cover 203 is used to control the communication state between the pipe body 201 and the valve body 202. Figure 3 When the system is in leakage protection mode, there is no connection between pipe body 201 and valve body 202, and water cannot enter the outlet pipe 103.

[0029] Please refer to this carefully. Figure 3 and Figure 4 The driving component includes a leakage current monitor 213, which is installed on the tank 101. The driving component also includes an electromagnet 206, which is fixed to the inner wall of the valve body 202.
