Description

Leading water purification puts in device and has its washing equipment

Technical Field

The invention relates to the field of washing, in particular to a front-mounted purified water feeding device and washing equipment with the same.

Background

Current household wash water is typically connected directly to a municipal water source, i.e., untreated tap water. Basic ions (such as calcium, magnesium, etc.) are usually present in tap water, and thus such tap water is colloquially referred to as "hard water". The contents of calcium, magnesium, and the like are indexes for evaluating the hardness of water. The greater the content of calcium, magnesium, etc., the greater the hardness of water. China is wide in regions, and hardness of water in different regions is greatly different, for example, the content of alkaline ions (such as calcium, magnesium and the like) in tap water in northern regions of China is generally high, and correspondingly, the hardness of water is also high. The alkaline ions in the hard water generate chemical reaction to generate insoluble substance particles which are easy to precipitate and adsorb after encountering alkaline detergent. The generated insoluble substances or precipitates in the pipelines and components of the washing equipment, so that the hidden trouble is brought to the normal operation of the equipment; or the detergent is adsorbed on the surface of the washed object, so that the clothes are hardened, and the quality of the clothes is influenced. Chlorine ions in tap water can also cause discoloration of the laundry. Further, when washing with hard water, the detergent is wasted by first consuming a portion of it in combination with hard water ions, which also results in inaccurate dosage of detergent.

For example, most of the existing household washing machines do not have a water purification function, and the detergent is usually added to the detergent box manually before the user washes the clothes each time. Multiple manual additions are not only time consuming, but also result in waste and contamination of the detergent. After the detergent is manually put into the washing box, the washing machine flushes the detergent into the washing drum through tap water according to the washing process. Tap water containing hard water ions and chlorine easily hardens or discolors clothes, and if the tap water and detergent are applied to the clothes without being sufficiently and uniformly mixed, the detergent may remain due to an excessive amount of local detergent, and the remaining detergent may be too little to cause unwashed clothes.

Separate pre-water purification modules have been developed in the prior art for supplying purified washing water to a washing machine, such as the one disclosed in chinese patent application CN 109110952A. An external detergent feeding device has been developed in the prior art for realizing the automatic feeding function of the washing liquid of the washing machine, for example, the external detergent feeding device is disclosed in chinese patent application CN 108315965A. The external detergent feeding device can automatically determine the required amount of the detergent according to the weight of the clothes to be washed, and feeds the detergent into a water inlet pipeline of the washing machine according to the determined required amount of the detergent. The detergent is mixed with water in a washing machine and then used for washing laundry. However, no technology for integrating a front water purifying device with an external detergent dispensing device has appeared in the prior art.

Accordingly, there is a need in the art for a new solution to the above problems.

In order to solve the problem that a water purifying device and an automatic detergent feeding device are integrated, the invention provides a preposed water purifying feeding device 1. This device is put in to water purification 1 includes: a water purification module 10 having a water inlet 12 connectable to an external water source; an automatic treating agent dosing module 20 having at least one treating agent chamber 21; a liquid mixing chamber 30 configured to receive and mix the purified water from the water purification module 10 and the treating agent from the treating agent chamber 21 to form a treating agent mixed liquid, and having a discharge port 31, the discharge port 31 being configured to discharge the treating agent mixed liquid into a predetermined apparatus; and a control module 40 configured to control the automatic dosing of the treatment agent.

Reference herein to "treatment agents" includes, but is not limited to, detergents, softeners, bactericides, detergents, dishwashing agents, or other suitable liquid treatment agents. The "waterway" of the pre-clean water dosing device mentioned in this document comprises all paths in which water flows from the water inlet to the water outlet in the pre-clean water dosing device.

Fig. 1 is a schematic plan view of an embodiment of a pre-clean water dosing device according to the invention, fig. 2 is a schematic plan view of an embodiment of a treatment agent bottle of a pre-clean water dosing device according to the invention, and fig. 3 is a schematic plan view of an embodiment of a treatment agent bottle and a corresponding release mechanism of a pre-clean water dosing device according to the invention. As shown in fig. 1, the prepositioned purified water feeding device 1 of the present invention includes a purified water module 10, an automatic treating agent feeding module 20, a liquid mixing chamber 30, and a control module 40. As shown in fig. 1, the water purification module 10 is connected to the liquid mixing chamber 30 through a connection water pipe 13 to discharge purified water into the liquid mixing chamber 30. The automatic treating agent dosing module 20 communicates with the liquid mixing chamber 30 through the corresponding treating agent input pipe 25 to discharge the treating agent into the liquid mixing chamber 30. The control module 40 is electrically and/or signal connected with the water purification module 10 and the automatic treating agent feeding module 20 through wires 44, so as to automatically control the operation of the water purification module 10 and the automatic treating agent feeding module 20.

In one or more embodiments, the water purification module 10 employs commercially available replaceable cartridge water purification devices. Alternatively, the water purification module 10 employs a custom-made water purification device. The water purification module 10 functions including, but not limited to, filtering impurities in water, softening water, etc. As shown in fig. 1, the water purification module 10 has a water purification body 11 and a water inlet 12 disposed on the water purification body 11. A water purification cartridge (not shown) for filtering and purifying water is provided in the water purification main body 11. The water purification body 11 includes at least one water purification cartridge. According to the actual needs, the water purification filter elements are one, two, three, four or more. These filter elements in combination may form a multi-stage filtration. Filter element materials include, but are not limited to, PP cotton, granular activated carbon, ultrafiltration membranes, RO membranes (i.e., "reverse osmosis membranes"), and the like. In one or more embodiments, a regeneration unit (not shown) is further disposed in the water purification module 10, and after the water purification filter element is saturated in adsorption, impurities adsorbed on the water purification filter element are removed by the regeneration unit, so that the water purification filter element can be repeatedly put into use. The water inlet 12 is a pipe connection connectable to an external water source. The external water source is, for example, tap water, and the inlet 12 is therefore connectable to a tap of tap water. In one or more embodiments, a flow meter 51 is also provided at the water inlet 12 to record the amount of water consumed for a single wash or to record the cumulative amount of water used. Alternatively, the flow meter 51 may be arranged in the line upstream of the water inlet 12, or on the connecting water pipe 13, or on another suitable line. The flow meter 51 may be an electromagnetic flow meter, a turbine flow meter, a vortex shedding flow meter, or the like. When the water purification module 10 is operated, water from an external water source flows into the water purification body 11 through the water inlet 12 and is purified in the water purification body 11, and then flows into the liquid mixing chamber 30 from the connection water pipe 13.

The automatic treatment agent dosing module 20 comprises at least one treatment agent chamber 21. As shown in fig. 1, in one or more embodiments, the automatic treating agent dosing module 20 forms four treating agent chambers 21 spaced apart from each other in the horizontal direction in its main body: a first treating agent chamber 21a, a second treating agent chamber 21b, a third treating agent chamber 21c, and a fourth treating agent chamber 21 d. Each of the four treating agent chambers may contain a different treating agent such as one of detergent, softener, and bactericide, respectively. Alternatively, two or more of the four treating agent chambers may also contain the same treating agent, according to the actual need. Alternatively, the automatic treating agent dosing module 20 may have one treating agent chamber 21, two treating agent chambers 21, three treating agent chambers 21, or more than four treating agent chambers 21. Each treating agent chamber extends in a vertical direction so that the treating agent can flow downward by gravity. At the bottom of each treatment agent chamber, a treatment agent chamber connection 22 is provided for connection to a corresponding treatment agent supply line 25.

As shown in fig. 1, in one or more embodiments, a solenoid valve 23 and a check valve 24 integrated in the solenoid valve 23 are disposed on each treatment agent input pipe 25. Both the solenoid valve 23 and the check valve 24 are located downstream of the treatment agent chamber connection 22 with respect to the flow direction of the treatment agent, and the check valve 24 is located downstream of a solenoid valve spool (not shown in the figure) in the solenoid valve 23. Alternatively, the solenoid valve 23 and the one-way valve 24 are arranged at the bottom of the treatment agent chamber 21, for example in the treatment agent chamber interface 22. Alternatively, the check valve 24 is separate from the solenoid valve 23 and is located downstream of the solenoid valve 23. Alternatively, the solenoid valve 23 may be replaced with other suitable valve structures.

In one or more embodiments, each treating agent chamber 21 is configured to receive a treating agent bottle 26 containing a treating agent. The treatment agent bottle 26 has a body 261, a bottle cavity 261a formed in the body 261, an input port 262 at one end of the body 261, and a sealing mechanism 263 for closing the input port 262. The treatment agent may be poured into the vial chamber 261 a. When the treating agent bottle 26 is inserted into the corresponding treating agent chamber 21, the input port 262 faces downward toward the bottom of the treating agent chamber 21 so that the treating agent in the bottle cavity 261a can flow out of the treating agent bottle 26 by gravity. Correspondingly, a release mechanism 27 is provided at the bottom of each treatment agent chamber 21, which communicates with the treatment agent chamber interface 22. Release mechanism 27 cooperates with sealing mechanism 263 to open dosing port 262.

As shown in fig. 2, in one or more embodiments, the sealing mechanism 263 includes a support seat 2631 securable to the dosing port 262 and a conical plug 2635 and return spring 2634 disposed on the support seat 2631. The tapered plug 2635 has a larger diameter end and an opposite smaller diameter end. The tapered plug 2635 has a cross-section that gradually decreases along its centerline from a larger diameter end to a smaller diameter end. As shown in FIG. 2, a tapered plug seat 2636 is provided at the lowermost end of the support seat 2631 based on the orientation shown in FIG. 2. The tapered plug seat 2636 has a substantially plate-like structure, and is formed with a tapered plug hole (not shown) in the middle thereof. A tapered plug 2635 is translatably disposed in the tapered plug bore. Tapered plug 2635 has a smaller diameter end located outside of tapered plug seat 2636 and a larger diameter end located inside of tapered plug seat 2636 and facing bottle cavity 261 a. The tapered plug 2635 has a smaller diameter end with a cross-section smaller than the cross-section of the tapered plug bore and a larger diameter end with a cross-section larger than the cross-section of the tapered plug bore to ensure that the tapered plug 2635 is able to completely seal the tapered plug bore. A return spring seat 2632 is also provided in the support seat 2631. The return spring seat 2632 is a generally plate-like structure and is spaced generally parallel to the conical plug seat 2636. A through hole 2633 is provided at an intermediate position of the return spring seat 2632. Based on the orientation shown in fig. 2, return spring 2634 spans through bore 2633 at its upper end and is fixed to return spring seat 2632, while its lower end abuts the larger diameter end of conical plug 2635. Thus, the treatment agent in the bottle cavity 261a flows into the space between the return spring seat 2632 and the conical plug seat 2636 through the through hole 2633, so that the return spring 2634 is immersed in the treatment agent.

As shown in FIG. 3, in one or more embodiments, the release mechanism 27 includes a base 272 and a tab 271 formed on the base 272. The pedestal 272 is installed at the bottom of each treatment agent chamber 21 and communicates with the corresponding treatment agent chamber interface 22. When the treating agent bottle 26 is inserted into the corresponding treating agent chamber 21, the support base 2631 of the sealing mechanism 263 is abutted with the base 272, and the lower end of the support base 2631 is inserted into the upper end of the base 272. Based on the orientation shown in FIG. 3, the projection 271 is located at an intermediate position on the upper end of the base 271. The upper end of the projection 271 is matched with the diametrically small end of the tapered plug 2635, and the cross section (cross section perpendicular to the vertical direction) of the projection 271 is smaller than that of the tapered plug hole so that when the projection 271 is inserted into the tapered plug hole, a gap allowing the treating agent to flow out is left between the projection 271 and the tapered plug hole. Thus, when a treating agent bottle 26 is inserted into the corresponding treating agent chamber 21, the upper end of the projection 271 abuts against the diametrically small end of the tapered plug 2635 and pushes the tapered plug 2635 toward the bottle cavity 261a against the elastic force of the return spring 2634 until the treating agent can flow out of the tapered plug hole. When the treating agent in the treating agent bottle 26 is used up, the treating agent bottle 26 can be taken out from the treating agent chamber 21. After being moved away from the release mechanism 27, the conical plug 2635 automatically returns to close the conical plug aperture under the action of the return spring 2634, thus closing the dosing port 262 of the vial 26. By pressing the tapered plug 2635 with an external force, the treatment agent bottle 26 can be filled with the corresponding treatment agent. Therefore, the independent treating agent bottle can be reused.

In an alternative embodiment, the sealing mechanism 263 of the treating agent bottle 26 takes the form of a sealing membrane covering the dispensing opening 262, and the corresponding release mechanism 27 takes the form of a needle or cylinder-like structure that can pierce the sealing membrane. After the treating agent bottle 26 is removed from the treating agent chamber 21, it is refilled with the treating agent, and the pouring port 262 is closed with a sealing film.

In an alternative embodiment, the treating agent is injected directly into the corresponding treating agent chamber 21. In this case, the release structures 27 located below the corresponding treatment agent chambers 21 are eliminated.

Referring again to FIG. 1, in one or more embodiments, the liquid mixing chamber 30 is a rectangular box-shaped body. Alternatively, the liquid mixing chamber 30 may be cylindrical or other suitable shape. In one or more embodiments, as shown in FIG. 1, four mixing-chamber ports 32 are provided in the liquid mixing chamber 30. Each of the mixing chamber ports is connected to a corresponding one of the treating agent inlet pipes 25 so that the treating agent can be introduced from the corresponding treating agent chamber 21 into the liquid mixing chamber 30. Alternatively, the mixing chamber interfaces 32 are of other suitable numbers and remain the same as the number of treatment agent chambers 21. The purified water from the water purification module 10 and the treating agent from the treating agent automatic-feeding module 20 are mixed after flowing into the liquid mixing chamber 30, respectively. The mixed liquid is discharged from a discharge port 31 provided on the liquid mixing chamber 30 into a predetermined apparatus. The predetermined equipment includes, but is not limited to, a washing machine, a dishwasher, and the like. For example, the discharge port 31 may be connected to a water inlet of the washing apparatus. Accordingly, the detergent dispensing box on the washing apparatus may be eliminated.

In one or more embodiments, a mixing device (not shown) is provided in the liquid mixing chamber 30 to increase the mixing speed of the purified water and the treating agent. Mixing devices include, but are not limited to, turbine or propeller type mixers and the like. As shown in FIG. 1, in one or more embodiments, a sterilization module 52 is also disposed within the liquid mixing chamber 30. The sterilization module 52 includes, but is not limited to, an ultraviolet lamp, an ozone generator, or an ultrasonic generator, etc. to sterilize and disinfect the liquid in the liquid mixing chamber 30. In alternative embodiments, the sterilization module 52 may be arranged in a water circuit outside the liquid mixing chamber 30, for example on the water inlet 12, on the connecting water pipe 13, in the water purification module 10, or on the water outlet 31.

As shown in FIG. 1, in one or more embodiments, control module 40 includes an operator panel 41, a controller 42, and a plug 43. The operation panel 41 and the controller 42 may form an electrical connection and a communication connection. The plug 43 may be connected to an external power source to power the controller 42. The operation panel 41 may be, for example, a touch panel or another suitable form of operation panel. Different function keys are provided on the operation panel 41, and a user can select different preset programs through the operation panel 41 and give instructions to the controller 42. As shown in FIG. 1, in one or more embodiments, the controller 42 is connected to the water purification module 10, each solenoid valve 23, the meter 51, and the sterilization module 52 by wires 44, respectively, to control the operation of these mechanisms, respectively. After the plug 43 is connected to the power supply, when the controller 42 receives a start command, the pre-purified water dosing device 1 is powered on and started. A water tap connected to the water inlet 12 is opened. The water is first purified by the water purification module 10 and then enters the liquid mixing chamber 30. The controller 42 controls the corresponding solenoid valve 23 to control the dosing of the treatment agent. The electromagnetic valve 23 is opened and closed for a prescribed time to dispense a fixed amount of the treating agent into the liquid mixing chamber 30 according to a preset program or function button selected by a user. At the same time, the sterilization module 52 is activated to perform a sterilization operation on the water within the liquid mixing chamber 30. The treating agent and the purified water are mixed by the mixing device in the liquid mixing chamber 30 to form a treating agent mixed liquid which is uniformly mixed. The treating agent mixture flows to the discharge port 31. After the treatment agent is stopped, only the purified water flows to the discharge port 31. If a predetermined device connected to the discharge port 31 is activated, the treating agent mixed liquor or purified water is continuously flowed into the predetermined device.

The invention also provides a washing device (not shown in the figure) which is provided with any one of the preposed purified water feeding devices 1. Washing apparatuses include, but are not limited to, drum washing machines and pulsator washing machines. The discharge opening 31 of the pre-clean water dosing device 1 is connected to the water inlet of the washing apparatus. The control module 40 of the pre-clean water dosing device 1 may be integrated with the main controller of the washing apparatus or arranged separately from the main controller. Before the washing apparatus is started, the pre-clean water dosing device 1, which is already connected to an external water source, is started by the controller 42. Water from an external source is first purified by the water purification module 10 and then enters the liquid mixing chamber 30. The controller 42 controls the corresponding solenoid valve 23 to control the dosing of the detergent or other treatment agent. The solenoid valve 23 performs opening and closing for a prescribed time according to a preset program or function button selected by a user to dispense a fixed amount of detergent or other treating agent into the liquid mixing chamber 30. At the same time, the sterilization module 52 is activated to perform a sterilization operation on the water within the liquid mixing chamber 30. The detergent or other treatment agent and the purified water are mixed by the mixing device in the liquid mixing chamber 30 to form a detergent mixed liquid or other treatment agent mixed liquid which is uniformly mixed. The detergent mixture or other treatment agent mixture flows to the discharge port 31. If the washing apparatus is started, the mixed liquid or the purified water in the liquid mixing chamber 30 is continuously injected into the washing apparatus. Therefore, the washing equipment can complete corresponding washing work. By installing the preposed purified water feeding device 1 outside the washing equipment, the space for arranging a detergent feeding box and a water purifying device in the washing equipment is saved, and the automatic feeding and convenient supplement of the treating agent are realized. The mixed liquid of the treating agent for washing is filtered and purified before entering the washing equipment, so that the damage of hard water to washed objects and partial pipelines and components of the washing equipment is reduced, the using amount of the treating agent can be reduced through the mixed liquid of the treating agent which is fully and uniformly mixed, the health of a user is facilitated, and the experience of the user can be improved.
