AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Conventional water heaters often dispense cold water initially when the hot water faucet is turned on, leading to waste and discomfort, especially in winter, and inefficient heating due to continuous operation without temperature control.

Method used

A water heater line equipped with a heater plate and temperature sensor, controlled by a controller, ensures immediate hot water delivery by heating the water to the desired temperature and stopping heating when the set temperature is reached.

Benefits of technology

Eliminates water waste and heating inefficiency by providing immediate hot water and optimizing power usage based on temperature settings.

Abstract

Even when the one-lever water faucet is turned on to the hot water side, cold water comes out at first, which is painful in winter. The cold water that comes out before the hot water from the water heater reaches the outlet of the water purification unit must be discarded, resulting in waste. To provide a line with a water heater that immediately gives hot water when the one-lever water faucet is turned on to the hot water side. [Solution] Water passing through a water heater line 1 is heated by a heater plate 2 inside a heater protection plate 3, and the water temperature of the water heater outlet hot water line 4 in front of the one-lever faucet is detected by a sensor 8 and adjusted by a controller 7.

Description

[Technical field]

[0001] This invention relates to a household item, a water heater and water line 1 that immediately dispenses hot water when the one-lever faucet 6 shown in FIG. 3 is turned on the hot water side. Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

[0002] Conventionally, even if you turn on the single-lever water faucet 6 on the hot water side, cold water comes out at first, which is painful in winter. The cold water that comes out before the hot water from the water heater reaches the outlet 11 of the water purification unit must be discarded, resulting in waste. This is what we intend to solve by installing the water boiler line 1. [Means for solving the problem]

[0003] The water passing through the water heater line 1 is heated by the heater plate 2 in the heater protection plate 3, and the water temperature in front of the one-lever faucet 6 is detected by the sensor 8 and adjusted by the controller 7. The hot water thus produced is immediately discharged, solving the problem. Effect of the Invention

[0004] The warm water feels pleasant to the touch. The desired temperature is adjusted using the temperature controller 7, so the hot water feels pleasant on the skin.

[0005] As mentioned above, water waste is eliminated. When the single-lever faucet 6 is turned on for hot water and opened, the hot water that has been heated in the heater plate 2 comes out immediately, so there is no cold water to be disposed of and no waste is produced.

[0006] There is no waste of heating power. The heating action of the water heater line 1 where hot water from the water heater arrives continues, but when the water arrives, the sensor 8 detects the water temperature, and when it exceeds the set temperature of the temperature control controller 7, the heating of the heater plate 2 of the water heater line 1 stops. Therefore, there is no unnecessary use of heating power. [Brief description of the drawings]

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

[0008] A heater plate is inserted into a water heater line made of metal or the like while being protected by a protective plate made of metal or the like, and is connected with a pipe socket to a hot water outlet hot water line connected to a one-lever faucet. EXAMPLES

[0009] The water heater line 1 is made of metal, etc. A heater 2 is inserted into the water heater line 1 while being protected by a protective plate 3 made of metal, etc., and is connected to the water heater outlet hot water line 4 connected to a lever 6 with a pipe socket 5. The water in the water heater line 1 is heated and adjusted by a heater 2 to a temperature set by a temperature control controller 7, and the hot water flows to a one-lever faucet 6.

Claims

[Claim 1] This water boiler line structure comprises a heater plate (2) inserted into a water boiler line (1) made of metal or the like while being protected by a protective cover (3) made of metal or the like, and connected to a water heater outlet hot water line (4) connected to a one-lever faucet (6) with a pipe socket (5). The water in the water boiler line (1) is heated and adjusted by a temperature controller (7) to the temperature set by a temperature control controller (9), and the hot water flows to the one-lever faucet (6).
