Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of sterilizer technology, specifically to a flow structure for a silver ion sterilizer. Background Technology

[0002] Silver ion sterilizers, which can effectively kill bacteria and microorganisms, are widely used for disinfection and sterilization of water tanks, swimming pools, water heaters, and other similar applications.

[0003] Currently, silver ion sterilizers all have a straight-in-straight-out structure (such as...). Figure 2 As shown in the image, this causes the incoming water to directly impact the silver electrode assembly, resulting in the silver sheet tilting, which greatly reduces the working efficiency of the silver electrode and shortens its lifespan. Furthermore, stagnant water zones can easily form inside the casing, affecting the disinfection effect. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a flow structure for a silver ion sterilizer to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: A flow structure for a silver ion sterilizer includes an inner cavity, an outer cavity, a cathode electrode, and a silver electrode. The inner cavity is embedded within the outer cavity. The upper end of the silver electrode is connected to an anode conductive rod. An anode insulating member is sleeved around the outer periphery of the anode conductive rod. The anode insulating member sequentially penetrates the upper wall of the inner cavity and the upper wall of the outer cavity. The upper end of the anode conductive rod is connected to an anode power supply connection post. The upper end of the cathode electrode is connected to a cathode conductive rod. A cathode insulating member is sleeved around the outer periphery of the cathode conductive rod. The cathode insulating member sequentially penetrates the upper wall of the inner cavity and the upper wall of the outer cavity. The upper end of the cathode conductive rod is connected to a cathode power supply connection post. The lower part of the side wall of the inner cavity is connected to a water inlet. An inner cavity outlet is formed on the upper part of the side wall of the inner cavity. The inner cavity outlet is located obliquely above the silver electrode and penetrates both the inner and outer cavities. The lower part of the side wall of the outer cavity is connected to a water outlet.

[0006] In one possible implementation, the lower part of the side wall of the inner cavity is provided with an inner cavity inlet, and the inner cavity inlet is connected to the water inlet through a water inlet channel.

[0007] In one possible implementation, the lower part of the side wall of the outer cavity is provided with an outer cavity outlet, and the outer cavity outlet is connected to the water outlet through a water outlet channel.

[0009] In one possible implementation, the water inlet channel is arranged at a right angle to the inner cavity.

[0010] In one possible implementation, the water outlet channel is arranged at a right angle to the outer cavity.

[0011] In one possible implementation, the inlet and the outlet are located on the same horizontal plane.

[0012] In one possible implementation, the anode power connection post is connected to the anode of an external DC power supply, and the cathode power connection post is connected to the cathode of an external DC power supply.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages: The straight water flow pattern was changed to a zigzag flow pattern from bottom to top and then from top to bottom, thus avoiding the formation of stagnant water zones and reducing the impact on the silver electrodes.

[0016] To further illustrate the technical means and effects adopted by this utility model in order to achieve the intended utility model purpose, the following detailed description of the specific implementation methods, structure, features and effects of this utility model is provided in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and preferred embodiments.

[0017] like Figure 1As shown, a flow structure for a silver ion sterilizer includes an inner cavity 1, an outer cavity 2, a cathode electrode 11, and a silver electrode 3. The inner cavity 1 is embedded within the outer cavity 2. The upper end of the silver electrode 3 is connected to an anode conductive rod 14. An anode insulating member 16 is sleeved around the outer periphery of the anode conductive rod 14. The anode insulating member 16 passes through the upper wall of the inner cavity 1 and the upper wall of the outer cavity 2 in sequence. The upper end of the anode conductive rod 14 is connected to an anode power connection post 12. The upper end of the cathode electrode 11 is connected to a cathode conductive rod 15. The cathode conductive rod 15 is sleeved with a cathode insulating member 13, which sequentially penetrates the upper wall of the inner cavity 1 and the upper wall of the outer cavity 2. The upper end of the cathode conductive rod 15 is connected to the cathode power supply connection post 17. The lower part of the side wall of the inner cavity 1 is connected to the water inlet 5. An inner cavity outlet 7 is provided on the upper part of the side wall of the inner cavity 1, located obliquely above the silver electrode 3. The inner cavity outlet 7 connects the inner cavity 1 and the outer cavity 2. The lower part of the side wall of the outer cavity 2 is connected to the water outlet 10. The water inlet 5 and the water outlet 10 are located on the same horizontal plane. The anode power supply connection post is connected to the anode of an external DC power supply, and the cathode power supply connection post is connected to the cathode of an external DC power supply. The external DC power supply supplies power to the cathode electrode and the silver electrode. The cathode electrode can be a copper electrode, etc.

[0018] This invention features an inner cavity 1 and an outer cavity 2. When water enters the silver ion sterilizer, it flows from bottom to top into the inner cavity 1. Once the liquid level reaches the height of the silver electrode 3, the water begins to contact and purify the electrode. After purification, the water flows out from the inner cavity outlet 7 into the outer cavity 2. Finally, the water flows from top to bottom in the outer cavity 2 and exits the silver ion sterilizer from the outlet 10, completing the silver ion sterilization process. Throughout this process, the water flows from bottom to top and then from top to bottom. This prevents the water from impacting the silver electrode 3; instead, it soaks the electrode 3 as the liquid level rises. As the liquid level continues to rise, the water flows out from the inner cavity outlet 7. The water remains in a state of constant flow throughout both the inner cavity 1 and the outer cavity 2, thus preventing stagnant water zones.

[0019] Furthermore, the lower part of the side wall of the inner cavity 1 is provided with an inner cavity inlet 6, which is connected to the water inlet 5 via a water inlet channel 4. The lower part of the side wall of the outer cavity 2 is provided with an outer cavity outlet 9, which is connected to the water outlet 10 via a water outlet channel 8. The water inlet channel 4 is set at a right angle to the inner cavity 1. The water outlet channel 8 is set at a right angle to the outer cavity 2.

[0020] To ensure that the water to be purified enters the inner cavity 1 slowly without backflow, an inlet channel 4 is provided between the inner cavity 1 and the inlet 5 in this invention. The inlet channel 4 can be a pipe or other fitting capable of carrying water flow. Similarly, to prevent the purified water from having excessive impact force from top to bottom and spraying when it flows out of the silver ion sterilizer, an outlet channel 8 is also provided between the outer cavity 2 and the outlet 10.

[0021] To allow the water to be purified to slowly rise in the inner cavity 1 and fully contact the silver electrode 3, the inner cavity inlet 6 and the inner cavity outlet 7 are located on opposite sides of the inner cavity 1. For example, if the inner cavity inlet 6 is located at the lower left of the inner cavity, then the inner cavity outlet 7 is located at the upper right of the inner cavity. The specific shapes of the inner and outer cavities are not limited in this invention; the inner or outer cavity can be a cuboid, cylinder, etc.

[0022] This invention changes the direction of water flow, employing methods such as... Figure 1 The flow direction shown, from bottom to top and then from top to bottom, not only increases the contact time between water and silver electrode 3 and cathode electrode 11, but also prevents water flow from directly impacting silver electrode 3 and cathode electrode 11.
