Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of pipeline machines, and in particular to a novel pipeline machine. Background Technology

[0002] Water dispensers, often used in conjunction with water purifiers, are widely used in homes and offices due to their small size, low price, and easy installation. The water supply to a water dispenser is usually provided by the water purifier. However, because it's difficult to precisely match the purifier's flow rate with the dispenser's usage flow rate, most traditional water dispensers have an internal water tank. Purified water is first stored in the tank. When the dispenser draws water, it prioritizes using the water from the tank. Once the water level in the tank drops to a certain level, the water purifier is then turned on to refill the tank.

[0003] However, the use of water tanks has brought many problems. On the one hand, the addition of water tanks increases product costs and occupies space. On the other hand, and more seriously, the vents on the water tanks allow impurities and bacteria from the outside air to continuously enter the tanks. Over time, bacteria proliferate, contaminating the water inside and seriously affecting the health of users.

[0004] Some products on the market have attempted to eliminate the water tank setting. However, eliminating the water tank causes the water purifier that supplies purified water to the water dispenser to start frequently. This not only affects the stability and safety of the water supply, but also requires these water dispensers to drain some water during operation in order to solve the flow mismatch problem, resulting in a waste of water resources. Utility Model Content

[0005] In view of the above-mentioned problems of existing pipeline machines, the aim is to provide a new type of pipeline machine.

[0006] The specific technical solution is as follows: A new type of pipeline machine includes: A water storage bag, wherein the water storage bag is flexible and compressible, and the water storage bag has an inlet and an outlet; The water inlet pipe has one end connected to the water outlet of the water purifier, and the other end connected to the water inlet nozzle through a first pipe. The first pipe has a first valve for controlling the opening and closing of the first pipe. A water suction tube is provided inside the water storage bag, with one end of the water suction tube located at the bottom of the water storage bag and the other end connected to the water outlet. The second pipeline connects the water outlet to the water outlet of the pipeline machine, and a water pump is connected to the second pipeline.

[0007] Furthermore, as a preferred embodiment, the inlet and outlet are located on the top sides of the water storage bag, respectively.

[0008] Furthermore, as a preferred embodiment, the other end of the water suction pipe has an air vent on its side wall.

[0009] Furthermore, as a preferred embodiment, one end of the water suction tube has a water suction head, which is made of a flexible material and has several water suction holes communicating with the water suction tube.

[0010] Furthermore, as a preferred embodiment, a heating device is also provided on the second pipeline between the water pump and the outlet of the pipeline machine for heating the water passing through the second pipeline.

[0011] Furthermore, as a preferred embodiment, a first one-way valve is also provided on the second pipeline between the heating device and the water outlet of the pipeline machine.

[0012] Furthermore, as a preferred embodiment, it also includes a third pipeline, which connects the inlet pipeline to the outlet of the pipeline machine, and the third pipeline has a second valve for controlling the on / off state of the third pipeline.

[0013] Furthermore, in a preferred embodiment, both the first valve and the second valve are solenoid valves.

[0014] Furthermore, as a preferred embodiment, a second check valve is also provided on the third pipeline between the second valve and the outlet of the pipeline machine.

[0015] Furthermore, as a preferred embodiment, the water suction pipe is a flexible pipe.

[0016] The positive effects of the above technical solution compared with the existing technology are: (1) This utility model uses a flexible and compressible water storage bag instead of a traditional water tank, which is not only low in cost, but also eliminates the need for an exhaust vent, thus completely isolating the water inside the water storage bag from the air outside the bag, effectively solving the problem of water inside the bag being polluted by the outside air and ensuring water quality safety.

[0017] (2) The side wall of the suction pipe of this utility model is provided with an exhaust hole. In the initial stage, when there is a small amount of air in the water storage bag, the gas is discharged from the exhaust hole first when the external pump draws water, ensuring that the air in the water storage bag can be discharged smoothly, further ensuring the air inside and outside the water storage bag is isolated, and preventing air from entering and polluting the water quality.

[0022] Figure 1 This is a water circuit diagram of a novel pipeline machine according to this utility model; Figure 2 This is a water circuit diagram illustrating the connection between a novel pipeline machine and a water purifier according to this utility model. Figure 1-2The illustration shows a novel water purifier according to a preferred embodiment, comprising: a water storage bag 1, an inlet pipe 2, a suction pipe 5, and a second pipe 6. The water storage bag 1 is flexible and compressible, replacing the traditional water tank. This eliminates the need for an air vent, completely isolating the water inside the bag from the outside air, effectively solving the problem of water contamination by external air and ensuring water quality safety. The water storage bag 1 has an inlet nozzle 11 and an outlet nozzle 12. One end of the inlet pipe 2 is connected to the outlet of the water purifier, and the other end is connected to the inlet nozzle 11 via a first pipe 4. The first pipe 4 has a first valve 3 for controlling the opening and closing of the first pipe 4. The first valve 3 controls the connection between the inlet pipe 2 and the water storage bag 6. The opening and closing of bag 1 can precisely control the water filling process of water storage bag 1, avoiding overfilling or underfilling, and improving the stability and reliability of the system. The suction pipe 5 is located inside water storage bag 1, with one end of the suction pipe 5 located at the bottom of water storage bag 1 and the other end connected to the water outlet 12. The suction pipe 5, located inside water storage bag 1 and connected to the bottom at one end, can fully absorb the water in water storage bag 1, ensuring stable water output under different water levels and improving the stability of water output. The second pipeline 6 connects the water outlet 12 and the water outlet 7 of the water dispenser, and a water pump 8 is connected to the second pipeline 6. The water pump 8 provides power for the water flow, ensuring that water can be smoothly delivered from water storage bag 1 to water outlet 7 of the water dispenser, meeting the user's water flow requirements.

[0023] Even better, the water storage bag 1 is made of multiple layers of film by hot pressing. The innermost film layer of the water storage bag 1 that is in contact with water is made of food-grade materials such as PE, PP, and PVC. The middle film layer is made of materials such as nylon with good toughness. The outermost layer is also made of food-grade materials such as PE, PP, and PVC. Therefore, the water storage bag 1 has the characteristics of high safety and high toughness, effectively preventing the bag from breaking.

[0024] Furthermore, as a preferred embodiment, the inlet 11 and the outlet 12 are respectively located on the top two sides of the water storage bag 1. The inlet 11 and the outlet 12 being located on the two sides of the water storage bag 1 facilitates the inflow and outflow of water, making the water more evenly distributed within the water storage bag 1, reducing dead zones in the water flow, and improving the utilization rate of the water storage bag 1.

[0025] Furthermore, as a preferred embodiment, the other end of the suction pipe 5 has a vent hole 51 on its side wall. The vent hole 51 on the side wall of the suction pipe 5 allows the air to be expelled from the vent hole 51 first when a small amount of air is present in the water storage bag 1 during the initial stage of water extraction by an external pump. This ensures that the air inside the water storage bag 1 can be expelled smoothly, further guaranteeing air isolation between the inside and outside of the water storage bag 1 and preventing air from entering and contaminating the water.

[0026] Furthermore, as a preferred embodiment, one end of the water suction tube 5 has a water suction head 52, which is made of a flexible material and has several water suction holes communicating with the water suction tube 5. The water suction head 52 is made of a flexible material to avoid puncturing the water storage bag 1 and to improve safety during use.

[0027] Even better, the absorbent head 52 is made of rubber.

[0028] Furthermore, as a preferred embodiment, a heating device 9 is also installed on the second pipeline 6 between the water pump 8 and the water outlet 7 of the water dispenser, for heating the water passing through the second pipeline 6. The installation of the heating device 9 enables the water dispenser to provide hot water, meeting the user's needs for drinking water at different temperatures, expanding the function of the water dispenser, and improving the practicality of the product. Specifically, the heating device 9 is an electric heating device, such as an electric heating wire heating device, which is an existing mature device, and its specific structure, installation, and principle will not be described in detail here.

[0029] In an even more optimized manner, temperature sensors are installed at both the inlet and outlet of the heating device 9. The temperature sensors are connected to the water pump 8 via a signal, and the flow rate of the water pump 8 can be adjusted according to the set outlet water temperature to control the outlet water temperature.

[0030] Furthermore, as a preferred embodiment, a first check valve 10 is also provided on the second pipeline 6 between the heating device 9 and the water outlet 7 of the water dispenser. The first check valve 10 can prevent hot water from flowing back into the heating device 9, avoid temperature fluctuations and damage to the heating device 9 caused by hot water backflow, and ensure the normal operation of the heating device 9 and the stability of the water output.

[0031] Furthermore, as a preferred embodiment, a third pipeline 20 is also included. The third pipeline 20 connects the inlet pipeline 2 and the outlet 7 of the water dispenser, and a second valve 30 is provided on the third pipeline 20 to control its opening and closing. The third pipeline 20 and the second valve 30 enable the direct supply of room temperature water. When the user needs room temperature water, the second valve 30 can be opened, allowing the inlet water to flow directly through the third pipeline 20 from the outlet 7 of the water dispenser, without passing through the water storage bag 1 and the heating device 9, thus improving the efficiency and convenience of room temperature water supply. Furthermore, as a preferred embodiment, both the first valve 3 and the second valve 30 are solenoid valves. Using solenoid valves as the first valve 3 and the second valve 30 allows for automatic opening and closing via electric valves, achieving automated operation and improving the system's intelligence level and control precision.

[0032] Furthermore, as a preferred embodiment, a second check valve 40 is also provided on the third pipeline 20 between the second valve 30 and the water outlet 7 of the water dispenser. The second check valve 40 can prevent room temperature water from flowing back into the inlet pipeline 2, ensuring the stability and one-way nature of the room temperature water supply, and avoiding water pollution and system failure caused by backflow. Furthermore, as a preferred embodiment, the water suction pipe 5 is a flexible pipe, specifically a flexible plastic pipe. The flexible water suction pipe 5 can better adapt to the shape changes of the water storage bag 1. During the compression or expansion of the water storage bag 1, it will not be damaged due to excessive rigidity. At the same time, it can also ensure the smoothness of water absorption, improve the reliability and service life of the system.

[0033] Even better, it also includes a liquid level detection unit 50 and a pipeline machine electrical control system. The liquid level detection unit 50 is used to detect the water level in the water storage bag 1. The liquid level detection unit 50 and the pipeline machine electrical control system are connected by a signal. When the liquid level detection unit 50 detects that the water level in the water storage bag 1 is low, it can transmit a signal to the pipeline machine electrical control system. The pipeline machine electrical control system controls the first valve 3 to open so as to replenish water into the water storage bag 1.

[0034] More preferably, the liquid level detection unit 50 can be a weight sensor located at the bottom of the water storage bag 1, installed on the support structure (such as a support platform) at the bottom of the water storage bag 1, and calculates the water storage volume by detecting the weight of the water inside the water storage bag 1.

[0035] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and does not limit the implementation method and protection scope of the present utility model. Those skilled in the art should realize that all solutions obtained by equivalent substitutions and obvious changes made based on the description and illustrations of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
