Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of kitchen and bathroom product manufacturing technology, and in particular to a water quality testing device. Background Technology
[0002] In modern home life, with the improvement of living standards, people are paying increasing attention to the quality of drinking water. Clean and healthy drinking water has become one of the basic needs of homes and offices. To ensure the safety and quality of drinking water, most homes and offices choose to install water purification equipment. Among the many water purification solutions, water purifiers and faucets have become the primary choice.
[0003] Traditional water purifier faucets are typically made of high-quality materials such as all-copper, emphasizing aesthetic design and durability. However, these faucets often lack modern information display functions, failing to directly display water quality information (such as TDS and pH values) or filter status on the faucet itself. The lifespan of the electronic equipment integrated into the faucet (including sensor modules and displays) is often far shorter than the faucet's expected lifespan. This means that over time, when electronic components fail, the entire faucet may require complex repairs or even replacement, increasing user costs and inconvenience. While water purifiers possess relatively complete filtration systems, and some large models can display water quality information on the unit, they also have some shortcomings: although they have displays or built-in alarms, these require opening the cabinet door to view, preventing users from seeing the information immediately; maintenance is inconvenient, and filter replacement is cumbersome; the level of intelligence varies, with some products still lacking real-time water quality monitoring and filter life reminders.
[0004] Therefore, this utility model provides a water quality testing device that can effectively solve the above problems. It has a simple structure, is easy to install and can be independently disassembled and replaced, is user-friendly and highly expandable. Utility Model Content

[0036] Reference Figures 1 to 6 A water quality testing device, comprising:
[0037] The detection device 100 includes a transmitting module 110 and a sensing module 120. The transmitting module 110 is electrically connected to the sensing module 120. The sensing module 120 is used to connect to a water pipe 300. The sensing module 120 detects the water quality of the water flow in the water pipe 300 and converts the water quality into a signal, which is then transmitted to the transmitting module 110. The transmitting module 110 transmits the signal wirelessly.
[0038] Display device 200 is wirelessly connected to detection device 100. Display device 200 includes receiving module 210, display panel 220, magnetic connector 230, and control module 240. Display panel 220 is disposed on the outer surface of display device 200. Control module 240 converts the signal received by receiving module 210 into water quality data, which is displayed on display panel 220. Magnetic connector 230 is used to magnetically connect to the connection point of the plane.
[0039] With the above-described structure, the water quality testing system provided in this application adopts a split design, requiring only a corresponding interface to be opened on the water pipe 300 to complete the installation of the testing device 100. After the user turns on the faucet, the water in the water pipe 300 flows through the testing device 100. The sensing module 120 senses the water flow and detects it, obtaining the corresponding water quality information and transmitting it to the transmitting module 110. The transmitting module 110 transmits the signal to the receiving module 210. After receiving the signal, the receiving module 210 feeds it back to the control module 240. The control module 240 converts the signal into water quality data and displays it on the display panel 220. The magnetic connector 230 is used to magnetically connect to the connection point on the plane. As the water continues to flow out, the user can dynamically observe the changes in water quality on the display panel 220. When the water quality reaches the drinking standard, the user can then collect water. Preferably, the display device 200 is fixed to the wall by the mutual attraction between the magnetic connector 230 and the wall surface. When the wall surface is not magnetic, a magnetic metal is fixed to the wall surface using double-sided tape, suction cups, nails, etc., and then the magnetic connector 230 of the display device 200 is used to make it attract the magnetic metal to fix the display device 200.
[0040] In this embodiment, when the detection device 100 is installed on the inlet and outlet pipes of the water purifier, the water quality of the inlet and outlet pipes can be detected by the sensing module 120, thereby determining the water purification capacity of the water purifier. At this time, the water quality of the inlet and outlet pipes can be transmitted to two receiving modules 210 respectively, requiring two display panels 220 to display the water quality of the inlet and outlet pipes respectively; alternatively, the water quality of the inlet and outlet pipes can be simultaneously transmitted to one receiving module 210, in which case the display panel 220 will simultaneously display two different water quality conditions.
[0041] In this embodiment, the detection device 100 further includes a detection connector 130, which has an inlet 131 and an outlet 132 for connecting to the water pipe 300. With this structure, when the water quality detection device needs to be installed, only a notch needs to be made in the water pipe 300 to break it into two sections. Then, the detection connector 130 is positioned at the notch, and the inlet 131 and outlet 132 are connected to the two sections of the water pipe 300 respectively, thus completing the installation and positioning of the detection device 100 in the water pipe 300.
[0042] In this embodiment, the sensing module 120 is located within the detection connector 130, and the sensing module 120 is electrically connected to the transmitting module 110. With this structure, when the sensing module 120 is integrated within the detection connector 130, maintenance or replacement of the sensing module 120 is only required by removing the detection connector 130 from the water pipe 300, eliminating the need to dismantle the entire water pipe 300 system. This improves maintenance efficiency and reduces downtime. Preferably, the detection device 100 further includes a protective housing, within which the transmitting module 110 is located. The transmitting module 110 is effectively isolated from the external environment, preventing factors such as moisture and dust from affecting its normal operation. Optionally, the transmitting module 110 and the sensing module 120 are integrated structures, both located within the protective housing, improving system stability and reliability, and enhancing the maintainability and aesthetics of the equipment.
[0043] In this embodiment, the transmitting module 110 is provided with multiple data interfaces 111, and the detection connector 130 further includes a detection port 133 and a data cable 134. The detection port 133 is located between the water inlet 131 and the water outlet 132. The sensing module 120 is connected to the data cable 134, which passes through the detection port 133 and is inserted into the data interface 111. Through the above structural design, modular connection and quick plug-and-play installation between the sensing module 120 and the transmitting module 110 are achieved, improving the maintainability and expandability of the detection device 100. After the detection connector 130 is connected to the water pipe 300, the data cable 134 passing through the detection port 133 is directly inserted into the data interface 111. At this time, the sensing module 120 establishes a stable and reliable electrical connection with the transmitting module 110, begins to collect various water quality conditions in the water flow, and the transmitting module 110 wirelessly transmits the data to the display device 200. Preferably, when multiple sensing probes are integrated in series or in parallel in the detection connector 130, they can be plugged into different data interfaces 111 using data cable 134.
[0044] In this embodiment, the display panel 220 reserves multiple display areas 221 and a touch area 222. The display areas 221 are used to display different items, and clicking the touch area 222 allows switching between different display items. Through the above structural arrangement, the display panel 220 has multiple display areas 221 and at least one touch area 222. The display areas 221 can display different items, such as TDS, pH, ORP, and temperature. Users can manually switch between different display items by clicking the touch area 222, thereby switching between different data. The display panel 220 not only achieves centralized display of multi-parameter information but also improves the convenience and user-friendliness of human-computer interaction. Preferably, the display items also include the battery level of the device 200, allowing users to understand the device's battery life status in real time.
[0045] In this embodiment, the display device 200 may optionally include a sensing module 250, and the display panel 220 may optionally include an indicator light 223. The indicator light 223 is constantly lit, and the control module 240 controls the indicator light 223 to flash after receiving a signal from the sensing module 250. Through this structural arrangement, the constantly lit indicator light 223 not only improves the visibility of the display panel 220 in low-light environments but also conveys the operating status information of the display device 200, enhancing the user-friendliness and intelligent experience of human-computer interaction. When a user approaches the display device 200, the sensing module 250 senses the user's movement, and the indicator light 223 begins to flash under the control of the control module 240. Preferably, the indicator light 223 is an LED light strip, located on the edge of the display panel 220 or integrated into its internal structure, offering advantages such as energy saving, long lifespan, and fast response. Optionally, the sensing module 250 and indicator light 223 can be selectively configured based on power consumption and user-friendliness.
[0046] In this embodiment, the diameters of the inlet 131 and the outlet 132 match the diameter of the water pipe 300. Through this structural arrangement, the diameters of the inlet 131 and the outlet 132 are matched with the diameter of the water pipe 300, allowing for seamless connection with the existing water pipe 300 system. This ensures smooth water flow while improving the sealing and stability of the connection points, avoiding installation difficulties, water flow disturbances, or poor sealing caused by differences in pipe diameters. This effectively enhances the overall system's adaptability and reliability. Preferably, the inlet 131 and the outlet 132 adopt a standardized interface design, adapting to various common pipe diameters (such as 2-point, 3-point, or 4-point), and can be installed via flanges, threads, or quick-connect structures, allowing users to choose the appropriate connection method according to their actual needs. This design not only simplifies the installation process but also effectively reduces the risk of water flow disturbances or leaks caused by inconsistent pipe diameters.
[0047] In this embodiment, the display device 200 is powered by either USB charging or battery. Through the above structural configuration, the display device 200 can select a suitable power supply method according to the actual usage environment. In a fixed installation scenario, it can be continuously powered by an external power source via the USB interface; in scenarios without a power outlet or requiring mobile use, it can operate independently using its built-in battery. Preferably, the display device 200 is equipped with a power management module that automatically switches to battery power when the USB connection is lost, ensuring the continuity of display and communication functions. Furthermore, a low battery warning function is provided, reminding the user to charge the device in time via the display interface or indicator light 223, thereby improving the device's intelligence and user experience.
[0048] In this embodiment, the display panel 220 is an LED display screen or an LCD display screen. With the above structural configuration, the LED display screen has the advantages of high brightness and fast response, making it suitable for outdoor or bright light environments; the LCD display screen, on the other hand, has the characteristics of low cost and fine display, making it suitable for home kitchens. Users can choose the screen of the display panel 220 that does not require power according to their needs.
[0049] In this embodiment, the sensing module 120 includes at least one of the following: a TDS sensing module, a temperature sensing module, a flow sensing module, a pH sensing module, an ORP sensing module, a leakage sensing module, and a UV sterilization module. Through the above structural setup, the TDS sensor module is used to detect the total dissolved solids in the water, reflecting the purity of the water. Users can know the current purity of the water from the TDS value. As water continues to flow out of the water pipe 300, the TDS value will decrease and eventually stabilize to a drinkable range. The temperature sensor module is used to detect the water temperature in real time, providing a temperature compensation basis for the detection of other parameters. The flow sensor module is used to detect the water flow speed or flow rate, facilitating the monitoring and management of water consumption. The pH sensor module is used to detect the acidity or alkalinity of the water, determining whether the water quality is acidic, neutral, or alkaline. The ORP sensor module is used to measure the oxidation-reduction capacity of the water body, assessing its disinfection effect or pollution level. In addition, a leakage sensor module can be set up, which can alarm the user on the display panel 220 when there is a leak or the water quality does not meet the relevant requirements. Furthermore, the UV sterilization module is a technology module that uses ultraviolet light to kill or inactivate microorganisms in the water. When the UV module is activated, a UV light indicator will appear on the display panel 220. The UV light indicator will only appear in the display area 221 when water flows through it. These sensor modules 120 can be flexibly selected and integrated according to actual application scenarios, enabling the water quality detection device to have multi-functional and multi-parameter detection capabilities. Optionally, multiple sensor modules 120 can be arranged in series or in an integrated structure, which has the advantages of simple installation, convenient maintenance, and strong functional expandability, and is suitable for a variety of water treatment scenarios.
[0050] In this example, the display device 200 internally houses a sensing module 250 and an indicator light 223 used in conjunction with the sensing module 250. The indicator light 223 is constantly lit under normal conditions. Only when a person approaches and moves slightly will the sensing module 250 detect the user and, under the control of the control module 240, cause the indicator light 223 to flash. At this point, the receiving module 210 will enter working mode and begin receiving signals from the transmitting module 110. The reason for setting corresponding start-up conditions for both the transmitting module 110 and the receiving module 210 is to avoid excessive power consumption caused by the display panel 220 remaining constantly lit. When the user turns on the faucet, the under-seat detection connector 130 detects the water flow change, and the transmitting module 110 begins transmitting signals. As the stagnant water is discharged, water quality conditions such as the TDS value will continuously decrease and be displayed on the display panel 220. Once the TDS value drops to a certain level, the water can be used. After using the water, the faucet is turned off. The under-seat sensing module 120 no longer detects changes in water flow, and the transmitting module 110 stops transmitting data, while the receiving module 210 cannot receive data.
[0051] The above description provides one or more embodiments in conjunction with specific content, and does not imply that the specific implementation of this utility model is limited to these descriptions. Any methods or structures that are similar to or identical to those of this utility model, or any technical deductions or substitutions made based on the concept of this utility model, should be considered within the protection scope of this utility model.
