[0028] Please see Figure 1 The liquid supply assembly 200 includes a liquid supply cylinder 210 disposed on the top of the connecting plate 110. One side of the liquid supply cylinder 210 is sealed and connected to a delivery pipe 220. One side of the delivery pipe 220 is sealed and connected to a delivery pump 230. One side of the delivery pump 230 is sealed and connected to a first one-way valve 240. One side of the first one-way valve 240 is sealed and connected to a connector 250. One side of the connector 250 is sealed and connected to a first flow sensor 260. Two pressure pumps 270 are disposed on one side of the top of the base 100.

[0029] In one specific embodiment, the provided liquid supply cylinder 210 allows users to easily connect external pipes and other valves to external connectors when liquid needs to be supplied to other different devices. At this time, the controller will turn on the delivery pump 230, which draws liquid from the liquid supply cylinder 210 through the delivery pipe 220 and sends it to the connector 250 through the first one-way valve 240. The connector 250 then discharges the liquid to the external pipe through the first flow sensor 260 and the external connector, and then delivers it to each device. When dealing with different devices, different pressures can be set by the controller. When a device needs high-speed flushing, the controller will turn on two pressurizing pumps 270, which will send pressure to the connector 250 through the connecting pipe 280 and the second one-way valve 290 to pressurize the liquid inside, making its flow rate faster. This is monitored by the first flow sensor 260, thereby achieving the purpose of supplying liquid to different devices at different pressures and speeds.

[0030] Please see Figure 1-2 The intelligent proportioning component 300 includes a proportioning tank 310 disposed on the other side of the top of the base 100.

[0031] In one specific embodiment, the flow control valve 330 allows the user to connect the two flow control valves 330 to the external concentrated stock solution and the base liquid respectively, so that the liquid can enter the mixing tank 310 through the flow control valve 330 and the second flow sensor 320. After mixing, the water pump 360 draws out the liquid through the suction pipe 370 and sends it to the supply tank 210 through the delivery pipe 380 for use. The flow control valve 330 and the second flow sensor 320 can be used to set the flow rate of the external concentrated stock solution and the base liquid for accurate mixing, thereby achieving the purpose of accurate mixing.

[0034] Please see Figure 1 The auxiliary pump 700 is sealed to one side with a return pipe 800, and the end of the return pipe 800 is sealed to the top of the supply cylinder 210. The auxiliary pump 700 is sealed to one end with a recovery pipe 900, and the end of the recovery pipe 900 is sealed to the filter 600.

[0035] In one specific embodiment, the auxiliary pump 700 facilitates the connection of the return head 1000 to other equipment during use, allowing the cutting fluid used up by other equipment to be sent to the filter 600 through the return head 1000. After filtration, the auxiliary pump 700 extracts the filtered liquid from the filter 600 through the recovery pipe 900 and sends it to the supply cylinder 210 for reuse through the return pipe 800.

[0036] Please see Figure 2 The other end of the filter 600 is sealed and connected to the return head 1000, the end of the suction tube 370 is sealed and connected to the proportioning tank 310, and the end of the delivery tube 380 is sealed and connected to the top of the liquid supply cylinder 210.

[0037] In one specific embodiment, the provided filter 600 facilitates the filtration of used liquid for reuse, thereby improving the recyclability.

[0038] Please see Figure 1 The first flow sensor 260 has an external connector sealed on one side, and the ends of the two second check valves 290 are sealed to the connector 250.

[0039] In one specific embodiment, the external connector facilitates connection to external pipelines for liquid delivery, improving stability and increasing convenience.

[0040] Please see Figure 3 A torque motor 1100 is installed on the top of the mixing tank 310. The output shaft of the torque motor 1100 passes through the top of the inner wall of the mixing tank 310 and is equipped with a rotating rod. Several stirring blades 1200 are installed on the outer wall of the rotating rod. A controller is installed at the top corner of the base 100.

[0041] In one specific embodiment, the torque motor 1100 is provided so that the controller can turn on the torque motor 1100 during use to drive the rotating rod and then drive the stirring blade 1200 to rotate and mix the liquid in the mixing tank 310.

[0043] In one specific embodiment, a controller is provided to facilitate power supply control of electrical equipment, enabling the equipment to be powered on when needed, thus avoiding situations where power cannot be supplied when power is required.

[0044] In operation, the liquid supply cylinder 210 facilitates the connection of external pipes and valves to external connectors when liquid needs to be supplied to other equipment. The controller then activates the delivery pump 230, which draws liquid from the supply cylinder 210 through the delivery pipe 220 and sends it to the connector 250 via the first check valve 240. The connector 250 then discharges the liquid through the first flow sensor 260 and the external connector to the external pipes, subsequently delivering it to various devices. Different pressures can be set by the controller for different equipment. For equipment requiring high-speed flushing, the controller activates two pressure pumps 270, which then deliver pressure to the connector 250 through the connecting pipe 280 and the second check valve 290. The internal liquid is pressurized to increase its flow rate, and monitored by the first flow sensor 260, thereby achieving the purpose of supplying liquid at different pressures and speeds to different devices. Then, through the provided flow control valve 330, the user can easily connect the two flow control valves 330 to the external concentrated stock solution and the base liquid respectively, so that the liquid can enter the mixing tank 310 through the flow control valve 330 and the second flow sensor 320. After mixing, the water pump 360 draws out the liquid through the suction pipe 370, and finally sends it to the liquid supply cylinder 210 through the delivery pipe 380 for use. The flow control valve 330 and the second flow sensor 320 can be used to set the flow rate of the external concentrated stock solution and the base liquid for accurate mixing, thereby achieving the purpose of accurate mixing.
