[0001] This application relates to the field of liquid distribution technology in laundry rooms, specifically a liquid distributor for multi-station laundry rooms. Background Technology

[0002] Laundry liquid distribution refers to the precise distribution of various laundry liquids (such as detergents, bleach, fabric softeners, etc.) into washing machines or washing ducts in a preset ratio and amount using specific equipment or systems in a laundry room to complete the washing process of clothes.

[0003] In existing laundry rooms, different workstations are typically equipped with their own distributors to achieve precise control. However, since the distributors for different workstations are installed independently, it is not conducive to centralized control in small laundry rooms.

[0004] Therefore, this application provides a liquid dispenser for multi-station laundry rooms to solve the above-mentioned problems. Utility Model Content

[0007] At least three sets of the peristaltic pump units are connected side by side to form a distributor group. The control box contains a controller connected to the distributor group via a main cable and a timer whose output is connected to the input of the controller. The door of the control box has a display whose input is connected to the output of the controller for displaying the working status.

[0008] The peristaltic pump unit includes a fixed plate, a peristaltic box fixedly connected to the front end of the fixed plate, a peristaltic tube placed in an inverted U-shape inside the peristaltic box, a peristaltic rotor rotatably installed inside the peristaltic box for intermittently squeezing the peristaltic tube, a differential fixedly installed on the back of the fixed plate with its output shaft connected to the peristaltic rotor, a motor fixedly connected to the back of the differential with its output shaft connected to the input shaft of the differential, and a housing fixedly installed on the back of the fixed plate to cover the differential and the motor. In this way, by integrating multiple peristaltic pump units to form a distributor array, the space in the laundry room is greatly saved, enabling multi-station liquid distribution even in a smaller space. Each peristaltic pump unit can be controlled independently, and precise distribution of different stations, different types of liquids, and different quantities can be achieved through precise commands from the controller and timer.

[0009] Preferably, the input terminals of the motors are all connected to the output terminals of the controller.

[0010] Preferably, the back of the distributor assembly has a mounting plate for installation and fixation.

[0011] Preferably, the cabinet door has a door lock.

[0012] Preferably, the control box is equipped with a liquid level sensor whose output terminal is connected to the input terminal of the controller, and the probe of the liquid level sensor is located inside the laundry detergent storage device.

[0013] Preferably, the peristaltic box is hinged with a transparent lid for closing the opening of the peristaltic box, and the transparent lid is rotatably connected with a bolt screwed to the peristaltic box for locking.

[0014] Preferably, an antenna that is bidirectionally connected to an external control system is fixedly installed on the control box, and the antenna is bidirectionally connected to the controller.

[0015] This multi-station liquid dispenser for laundry rooms integrates multiple peristaltic pump units to form a dispenser array, which greatly saves laundry room space and enables multi-station liquid distribution even in a small space. Each peristaltic pump unit can be controlled independently, and through precise instructions from the controller and timer, precise distribution of different stations, different types of liquids, and quantities can be achieved.

[0016] This multi-station liquid dispenser for laundry rooms features a modular peristaltic pump unit. Components such as the mounting plate, peristaltic box, and peristaltic tube can be easily disassembled and replaced, reducing maintenance costs and time. Attached Figure Description

[0026] The technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0027] This embodiment provides a liquid dispenser for a multi-station laundry room, such as... Figures 1-4 As shown, the liquid dispenser for a multi-station laundry room includes a peristaltic pump unit 1 connected to a laundry detergent storage device at the inlet end, a peristaltic pump unit 1 connected to a laundry station at the outlet end, and a control box 3.

[0028] At least three peristaltic pump units 1 are connected side by side to form a distributor group 2. The control box 3 has a controller 32 connected to the distributor group 2 via a main cable 22 and a timer 33 whose output is connected to the input of the controller 32. The door 31 of the control box 3 has a display 311 whose input is connected to the output of the controller 32 for displaying the working status.

[0029] The peristaltic pump unit 1 includes a fixed plate 11, a peristaltic box 13 fixedly connected to the front end of the fixed plate 11, a peristaltic tube 14 placed in an inverted U-shape inside the peristaltic box 13, a peristaltic rotor 15 rotatably installed inside the peristaltic box 13 for intermittently squeezing the peristaltic tube 14, a differential 16 fixedly installed on the back of the fixed plate 11 with its output shaft connected to the peristaltic rotor 15, a motor 17 fixedly connected to the back of the differential 16 with its output shaft connected to the input shaft of the differential 16, and a housing 12 fixedly installed on the back of the fixed plate 11 for covering the differential 16 and the motor 17.

The antenna 35 is bidirectionally connected to the controller 32.

[0030] During use, the operator sets the type of laundry detergent, the amount dispensed, and the corresponding workstation through the control panel of the external control system. The timer 33 sends a command to the controller 32 according to the set time parameters. The controller 32 sends a start signal to the corresponding peristaltic pump unit 1 through the main cable 22 according to the command. The motor 17 of the peristaltic pump unit 1 starts and drives the peristaltic rotor 15 to rotate through the differential 16, which begins to squeeze the peristaltic tube 14 and pump the laundry detergent to the designated laundry workstation. When the preset amount or time is reached, the controller 32 sends a stop signal to the peristaltic pump unit 1, the motor 17 stops working, the peristaltic rotor 15 stops rotating, and the display 311 displays the current working status in real time, including the type and amount of liquid being dispensed and the corresponding workstation.

[0031] Specifically, the back of the dispenser assembly 2 has a mounting plate 21 for mounting and securing; the mounting plate 21 provides a sturdy mounting point for securing the entire dispenser assembly 2 in a suitable position within the laundry room.

[0032] It should be noted that the door 31 has a door lock 312; the door lock 312 can control the opening and closing of the control box 3, which facilitates inspection and maintenance, and also improves security.

[0033] Furthermore, the control box 3 is equipped with a liquid level sensor 34 whose output terminal is connected to the input terminal of the controller 32. The probe 341 of the liquid level sensor 34 is located inside the laundry detergent storage device. When the liquid level is lower than the preset threshold, the sensor sends a signal to the controller 32, thereby alarming the external control system and facilitating timely liquid replenishment.

[0034] Furthermore, a transparent cover 131 for closing the opening of the peristaltic box 13 is hinged to the peristaltic box 13. A locking bolt 1311 is rotatably connected to the transparent cover 131 and screwed to the peristaltic box 13 for locking. The transparent cover 131 can be opened and closed to access the interior of the peristaltic box 13.
