Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model.
[0022] like Figure 1 As shown, an integrated water purification and heating system is provided, which is entirely housed within the main unit 36, and includes:
[0023] A controllable distribution valve 4 has an output end one and an output end two. The water inlet of the distribution valve 4 is connected to the original water source. The water inlet of the distribution valve 4 is connected to an inlet pipe 2. An inlet solenoid valve 3 is installed in the inlet pipe 2. The water inlet of the inlet pipe 2 is connected to an inlet tee connector 1 that is connected to the original water source.
[0024] The filter element 7 is equipped with a water distribution pipe 5, and the output end of the distribution valve 4 is connected to the inlet end of the filter element 7 through the water distribution pipe 5.
[0025] A purified water output pipe 8 is connected to the water outlet of filter element 7. The water outlet of purified water output pipe 8 is connected to an optional room temperature water delivery pipe 9 and a hot water pipe 13 that are connected to a water faucet 35. The room temperature water delivery pipe 9 and the hot water pipe 13 are respectively equipped with a room temperature water solenoid valve 12 and a hot water tank replenishment valve 19. A heating element and a hot water pump 14 are installed in the hot water pipe 13. The hot water pump 14 is used to deliver the heated hot water in the hot water pipe 13 to the water faucet 35. The hot water pump 14 is located on the water outlet side of the heating element.
[0026] The drinking water output pipe 31 is equipped with an on / off valve 32. Its inlet end is connected to the output end of the distribution valve 4, and its outlet end is connected to the normal warm water delivery pipe 9.
[0027] The drinking water output pipe 31 is equipped with a room temperature water pump 33 for sending drinking water to the water outlet 35, which is used to generate the water supply power for room temperature direct drinking water.
[0028] Compared to the traditional solution, this solution adds a distribution valve 4, which divides the water path into two lines: one is a drinking water output pipe 31, which provides room temperature drinking water; the other is a line filtered by the filter element 7, which can output filtered purified water, and has two purified water output branches, which provide room temperature purified water and hot purified water respectively. In this solution, the drinking water output pipe 31 is connected to the room temperature water delivery pipe 9, which simplifies the water output path and allows room temperature drinking water to be output using the room temperature water delivery pipe 9, so that users can quickly obtain room temperature drinking water and increase the range of water options for users.
[0029] In addition, the heating element of hot water pipe 13 includes:
[0030] Hot water tank 15 is connected to hot water pipe 13. The air cavity in the upper part of the inner cavity of hot water tank 15 is connected to exhaust pipe 34. Exhaust pipe 34 is connected to water outlet faucet 35 to discharge water vapor from the inner cavity of hot water tank 15 and disinfect water outlet faucet 35 at the same time. Hot water pump 14 is located on the water outlet side of hot water tank 15 of heating element.
[0031] The heater 16 installed in the hot water tank 15 can heat the room temperature water in the hot water tank 15 when it is powered on.
[0032] Temperature sensor 17 is installed in hot water tank 15 and is used to detect the temperature of hot water;
[0033] Water level probe 18 is installed in hot water tank 15 and is used to detect the water level of hot water.
[0034] Therefore, it can be seen that the heating component in this solution has a relatively complete function, which can detect both the heated water temperature and the water level in the hot water tank 15.
[0035] In order to regulate the flow rate of purified water output, the above-mentioned normal temperature water delivery pipe 9 is equipped with a one-way valve 11 and a flow meter 10. The normal temperature water solenoid valve 12, the one-way valve 11, and the flow meter 10 are arranged in sequence. The drinking water output pipe 31 is connected to the normal temperature water delivery pipe 9 at the point between the one-way valve 11 and the flow meter 10.
[0036] The outlet end of the filter element 7 is connected to a return pipeline 28. A water quality detector is installed at the outlet end of the filter element 7 to detect the water quality of the filtered water. The outlet end of the return pipeline 28 is connected to the inlet end of the filter element 7. The return pipeline 28 is equipped with a return solenoid valve 29 and a one-way valve 30 distributed along its water flow direction. The return pipeline 28 can be used to guide the water flow back into the filter element 7 for further filtration, thereby improving the water quality of the purified water.
[0037] To enhance the water delivery power, the above-mentioned water distribution pipe 5 is equipped with a booster pump 6. The connection point between the return pipeline 28 and the water distribution pipe 5 is located at the suction end of the booster pump 6. The pump outlet end of the booster pump 6 is connected to the inlet end of the filter element 7. The booster pump 6 can also enhance the water delivery power of the purified water.
[0038] To ensure the flow stability of the entire water circuit device, the outlet end of the filter element 7 is connected to a drain pipe 24 for discharging excess clean water. The drain pipe 24 is equipped with a drain solenoid valve 23 and a one-way valve 25. When excess clean water is generated, it can be discharged into the water tank through the drain pipe 24.
[0039] The outlet of the filter element 7 is connected to a secondary output pipe 20 that is connected to the inlet of the water dispenser 37. The secondary output pipe 20 is equipped with a one-way valve 21 and a switch 22. When excess purified water is generated, it can also be output to the water dispenser 37 (water dispenser) through the secondary output pipe 20. Alternatively, room temperature purified water can be output to the water dispenser 37 through the secondary output pipe 20. The water dispenser 37 can be arranged in a convenient location for water access and can be set up independently of the main unit 36, which makes the selection space of the water circuit device larger and facilitates water access for users.
[0040] The filter element 7 has a wastewater discharge end, which is connected to the wastewater discharge pipe 26. The wastewater discharge pipe 26 is equipped with a wastewater solenoid valve 27, thereby making the function of the whole device more complete and allowing the wastewater generated by the filter element 7 to be discharged periodically.
