Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of hardware equipment technology, specifically relating to a highly stable intelligent water-saving control device. Background Technology
[0002] In traditional water systems, the design of water-saving control equipment mainly relies on mechanical flow restriction or simple water pressure regulation. Although it can reduce water consumption to some extent, it still has many technical defects, which restricts the balance between water-saving efficiency and user experience.
[0003] Smart water management, based on emerging technologies such as the Internet, the Internet of Things, intelligent sensing, cloud computing, and big data, comprehensively manages urban wastewater treatment across water supply, drainage, water conservation, sewage treatment, and flood control. The integration of water-saving control equipment with smart water management makes water conservation visible, and enables intelligent production control, integrated process equipment, precise data monitoring and resource utilization, and intelligent decision-making and management in the water industry. This ensures the safe operation of water facilities, efficient water resource utilization, and convenient water services. Traditional water-saving devices often directly reduce flow by narrowing the diameter (e.g., installing small-aperture filters). While this reduces water consumption, it significantly reduces the impact force of the water flow, making it ineffective, especially in flushing and cleaning scenarios. Users may extend their water usage time to compensate for perceived flow, thus negating the water-saving effect. Some devices attempt to increase pressure using booster pumps, but this requires additional energy, has a complex structure, and the high-speed water flow can easily cause pipe vibration and cavitation effects, leading to loosening or deformation of internal components, resulting in poor equipment stability and frequent replacement of components. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a highly stable intelligent water management and water-saving control device that can reduce water consumption without reducing the perceived flow rate, thereby reducing actual water consumption and achieving water-saving effects. It is simple to assemble, and its modular design can be adapted to different pipe diameters and fluids, and it has good stability.
[0005] The specific technical solution adopted in this utility model is as follows:
[0006] A highly stable smart water-saving control device includes a housing and a water-saving component. The housing includes a water inlet and outlet pipe. The water-saving component is installed at one end of the pipe. The water-saving component includes a base plate disposed inside the pipe, a cavity with a gradually changing aperture, and a vortex assembly. When liquid flows through the water-saving component, the liquid is separated sequentially and then discharged evenly from the vortex assembly.
[0007] In a preferred embodiment, a rotor is further disposed inside the housing, an end cap is disposed on the top of the housing to confine the rotor inside the housing, and a sensing circuit is disposed on the bottom of the housing.
[0008] In a preferred embodiment, the substrate is provided with first water passage holes at equal intervals, and fluid flows through the first water passage holes to the cavity opening.
[0009] In a preferred embodiment, the cavity wall of the cavity gradually approaches the axis of the pipe to form a second water passage.
[0010] In a preferred embodiment, the swirling assembly includes a cone protruding toward one side of the cavity opening for further diverting the liquid, and a reinforcing rod is provided between the cone and the substrate for stabilizing the structure between the cone and the substrate.
[0011] In a preferred embodiment, the vortex assembly is provided with vortex vanes at equal intervals, the distal ends of the vortex vanes are connected to the pipe wall of the water-saving component, and the middle part of the vortex assembly is formed by multiple sets of vortex vanes to form a hollow part.
[0012] The technical effects achieved by this utility model are as follows:
[0013] In this application, by setting swirl vanes on the swirl assembly, when water flows through the cone, the cone divides the liquid onto the circumferential side of the swirl assembly and then flows out through the swirl vanes. Due to the special shape and distribution of the swirl vanes, the water flow is forced to rotate as it passes through. When the water flows through the swirl plate, it is divided and guided by the vanes to form a high-speed rotating vortex, presenting the shape of a hollow water column in the middle. The centrifugal force generated by the rotation causes the water flow to spread in all directions, forming a hollow conical water curtain, increasing the contact area between water and air. This achieves the improvement of water utilization efficiency by changing the water flow pattern, reducing the actual water consumption while maintaining the perceived flow rate. Furthermore, the rotating water flow disperses the water pressure, resulting in a more uniform impact force per unit area and higher efficiency during cleaning or rinsing. At the same time, this application also reduces the actual water consumption by enhancing the water pressure perception. It is simple to assemble and can be applied to any fluid environment. The modular design can be adapted to different pipe diameters and fluids, such as domestic water and industrial circulating water, and has good stability. Attached Figure Description

[0022] Many specific details are set forth in the following description in order to provide a full understanding of this utility model. However, this utility model may also be implemented in other ways different from those described herein. Those skilled in the art can make similar extensions without departing from the spirit of this utility model. Therefore, this utility model is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.
[0023] Secondly, the term "an embodiment" or "embodiment" as used herein refers to a specific feature, structure, or characteristic that may be included in at least one implementation of this utility model. The phrase "in a preferred embodiment" appearing in different places in this specification does not necessarily refer to the same embodiment, nor is it a single or selective embodiment that mutually excludes other embodiments.
[0024] Secondly, this utility model is described in detail with reference to the schematic diagrams. When detailing the embodiments of this utility model, for ease of explanation, the cross-sectional views illustrating the device structure may be partially enlarged, not according to the usual scale. Furthermore, the schematic diagrams are merely examples and should not limit the scope of protection of this utility model. In addition, actual manufacturing should include the three-dimensional spatial dimensions of length, width, and depth.
[0025] Please see the appendix Figures 1-5 As shown, this utility model provides a highly stable smart water-saving control device, including a housing 1 and a water-saving component 6. The housing 1 includes a water inlet and outlet port 2. The water-saving component 6 is installed at one end of the outlet port 2. The water-saving component 6 includes a base plate 7 disposed inside the pipe, a cavity 9 with a gradually changing aperture, and a vortex assembly 12. When liquid flows through the water-saving component 6, the liquid is separated sequentially and then evenly discharged from the vortex assembly 12.
[0026] Specifically, the material of the water-saving component 6 is preferably a component made of a corrosion-resistant material, such as corrosion-resistant metal materials such as stainless steel, brass, copper, silver, and gold in existing structures, synthetic rubber such as styrene-butadiene rubber or elastic materials, synthetic resins such as polyvinyl chloride, polyester or polypropylene, ceramics, and other materials that can be used in the prior art for fluid passage.
[0027] Please see the appendix Figure 2 As shown, a rotor 3 is also provided inside the housing 1, and an end cap 4 is provided on the top of the housing 1 to confine the rotor 3 inside the housing 1. A sensing circuit 5 is provided at the bottom of the housing 1.
[0028] Specifically, when liquid flows through the inside of pipe 2, the rotation of the magnetic rotor 3 is proportional to the flow rate. This causes the rotor 3 to generate a Hall effect. A series of voltage pulses generated by this effect are used, the frequency of which is proportional to the flow rate. The voltage pulses are then converted into electrical pulse signals, and the flow rate is calculated based on the calibrated instrument coefficient (number of pulses / unit volume).
[0029] Please see the appendix Figure 3 As shown, the substrate 7 is provided with first water passage holes 8 at equal intervals. Fluid flows through the first water passage holes 8 to the cavity 9. The cavity wall of the cavity 9 gradually approaches the axis of the pipe to form a second water passage hole 901.
[0030] Specifically, the liquid flows into the second water passage 901 through the first water passage 8. The substrate 7 and the first water passage 8 work together to re-aggregate the dispersed fluid, which has the effect of increasing the flow rate.
[0031] Please see the appendix Figure 3 As shown, the swirling assembly 12 includes a cone 10 protruding toward the cavity 9 for further diverting the liquid. A reinforcing rod 11 is provided between the cone 10 and the substrate 7 to stabilize the structure between the cone 10 and the substrate 7.
[0032] Specifically, a reinforcing rod 11 is provided to connect the cone 10 and the base plate 7 to resist the impact pressure of the liquid.
[0033] More specifically, the cone 10 diverts the liquid to the circumferential side of the swirl assembly 12. In this embodiment, the swirl assembly 12 is a semi-circular body, but it can also be any other shape that can occupy the middle position inside the tube, such as a cylinder.
[0034] Please see the appendix Figures 4-5 As shown, swirl vanes 13 are evenly spaced on the swirl assembly 12. The far end of the swirl vanes 13 is connected to the pipe wall of the water-saving component 6. The middle part of the swirl assembly 12 and multiple sets of swirl vanes 13 cooperate to form a hollow part 14.
[0035] More specifically, by setting swirl vanes 13 on the swirl assembly 12, when water flows through the cone 10, the cone 10 divides the liquid onto the circumferential side of the swirl assembly 12, and then flows out through the swirl vanes 13. Due to the special shape and distribution of the swirl vanes 13, the water flow can be forced to rotate when it passes through. When the water flows through the swirl plate, it is divided by the vanes and guided to form a high-speed rotating vortex, presenting the shape of a hollow water column in the middle. The centrifugal force generated by the rotation causes the water flow to spread in all directions, forming a hollow conical water curtain, increasing the contact area between water and air. This achieves the improvement of water utilization efficiency by changing the water flow pattern, reducing the actual water consumption but not the perceived flow rate. In addition, the rotating water flow disperses the water pressure, making the impact force per unit area more uniform, and the cleaning or rinsing efficiency is higher. At the same time, this application also reduces the actual water consumption by enhancing the water pressure sensation. It is simple to assemble and can be applied to any fluid environment. The modular design can be adapted to different pipe diameters and fluids, such as domestic water and industrial circulating water, and has good stability.
[0036] It is worth emphasizing that smart water management is the deep integration of information technology and water technology. For example, the water-saving component 6 in the application can be connected to any water system through flow sensing. By monitoring the flow, it can obtain flow parameters within a time period, which helps to realize the intelligent control, data resource utilization, and precise management of water business systems, as well as ensure the safe operation of water facilities, making water business operations more efficient and management more scientific.
[0037] The working principle of this utility is as follows: The magnetic rotor 3 rotates with the water flow, and the rotation speed is proportional to the flow rate. The rotation of the rotor 3 triggers the bottom sensing circuit 5 to generate a pulse signal, which is converted into real-time flow rate by the instrument coefficient. Then, the liquid passes through the water-saving component 6 and is processed in stages. First, the flow is accelerated by converging. The liquid enters the cavity 9 through the first water hole 8 of the substrate 7. The dispersed fluid is gathered by the change of cross-sectional area, which increases the flow rate. Then, the flow is enhanced by swirling. The cone 10 guides the water flow to the circumferential side of the swirling component 12. The swirling plate 13 forcibly divides it into a rotating vortex. The water flow forms a hollow cone-shaped water curtain 14, which increases the water-air contact area, enhances the sensory flow rate, and achieves a stable water-saving effect. The rotating water flow disperses the pressure, making the impact more uniform and improving the cleaning efficiency.
[0038] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various improvements and modifications without departing from the principles of this utility model, and these improvements and modifications should also be considered within the scope of protection of this utility model. Structures, devices, and operating methods not specifically described or explained in this utility model, unless otherwise specified or limited, shall be implemented using conventional methods in the art.
