Referring to fig. 1 to 4, a water outlet temperature adjusting apparatus of the present utility model includes: the valve housing assembly 100, the sidewall of the valve housing assembly 100 is provided with a cold water inlet 101 and a hot water inlet 102 at intervals in the up-down direction; the piston 200 is slidably arranged in the valve housing assembly 100, a cold water inlet channel 103 communicated with the cold water inlet 101 is defined between the upper end of the piston 200 and the valve housing assembly 100, and a hot water inlet channel 104 communicated with the hot water inlet 102 is defined between the lower end of the piston 200 and the valve housing assembly 100; the temperature sensing element 300 is connected with the piston 200 and can drive the piston 200 to slide so as to adjust the sizes of the cold water inlet channel 103 and the hot water inlet channel 104; wherein, a first balance cavity 201 communicating with the cold water inlet 101 is provided between the upper part of the outer peripheral wall of the piston 200 and the inner peripheral wall of the valve housing assembly 100, and a second balance cavity 202 communicating with the hot water inlet 102 is provided between the lower part of the outer peripheral wall of the piston 200 and the inner peripheral wall of the valve housing assembly 100.
When the piston 200 slides relative to the valve housing assembly 100 and cold water enters the cold water inlet channel 103 from the cold water inlet 101, part of the cold water can enter the first balance cavity 201, the first balance cavity 201 is arranged around the circumference of the piston 200 so that the pressure of the cold water in the first balance cavity 201 is balanced, when hot water enters the hot water inlet channel 104 from the hot water inlet 102, part of the hot water can enter the second balance cavity 202, the second balance cavity 202 is arranged around the circumference of the piston 200 so that the pressure of the hot water in the second balance cavity 202 is balanced, thereby reducing the influence of the water pressure on the sliding of the piston 200, reducing the probability of jamming of the piston 200, reducing the thrust required for driving the piston 200 to slide, improving the smoothness of the reciprocating sliding of the piston 200, being beneficial to reducing the load on the temperature sensing element 300 so as to prolong the service life of the water temperature adjusting device, and ensuring the accuracy and the response rate of the water temperature adjustment due to the stress balance of the piston 200.
The up-down direction of the outlet water temperature adjusting device of the present utility model is shown in fig. 1 and 2. It will be appreciated that when the valve housing assembly 100 is in a transverse position, the first and second balance chambers 201, 202 are located at the left and right ends of the piston 200, respectively, or the first and second balance chambers 201, 202 are located at the right and left ends of the piston 200, respectively.
Referring to fig. 3 and 4, in some embodiments of the present utility model, a middle portion of an outer circumferential wall of the piston 200 is provided with an annular sealing member 210 abutting against an inner circumferential wall of the valve housing assembly 100, an upper end of the piston 200 is convexly provided with a first annular protrusion 220 along the outer circumferential wall thereof, a lower end of the piston 200 is convexly provided with a second annular protrusion 230 along the outer circumferential wall thereof, a first balance chamber 201 is defined between the first annular protrusion 220, the annular sealing member 210 and the inner circumferential wall of the valve housing assembly 100, and a second balance chamber 202 is defined between the second annular protrusion 230, the annular sealing member 210 and the inner circumferential wall of the valve housing assembly 100.
It will be appreciated that when cold water enters the first balance chamber 201, the cold water in the first balance chamber 201 acts on the upper surface of the annular seal 210 and the first annular protrusion 220, respectively, so as to counteract the external force of the cold water acting on at least part of the piston 200, and the first balance chamber 201 is disposed around the periphery of the piston 200, so that the cold water in the first balance chamber 201 has uniform height and uniform water pressure, which is beneficial to uniform stress of the piston 200. Similarly, when hot water enters the second balance cavity 202, the hot water in the second balance cavity 202 acts on the lower surface of the annular sealing element 210 and the second annular convex part 230 respectively, so that external force of the hot water acting on at least part of the piston 200 can be counteracted, the second balance cavity 202 is arranged around the periphery of the piston 200, and the hot water in the second balance cavity 202 has the same height and water pressure, so that uniform stress of the piston 200 is facilitated, and the sliding of the piston 200 is smoother and stable.
Referring to fig. 3, 4 and 5, in some embodiments of the present utility model, the distance by which the first annular protrusion 220 protrudes from the outer circumferential wall of the piston 200 in the radial direction of the piston 200 coincides with the distance by which the annular seal 210 protrudes from the outer circumferential wall of the piston 200 in the radial direction of the piston 200, and the distance by which the second annular protrusion 230 protrudes from the outer circumferential wall of the piston 200 in the radial direction of the piston 200 coincides with the distance by which the annular seal 210 protrudes from the outer circumferential wall of the piston 200 in the radial direction of the piston 200.
It should be noted that, because the water pressure in the first balance chamber 201 is consistent, when the distance of the first annular protrusion 220 protruding from the outer circumferential wall of the piston 200 along the radial direction of the piston 200 is consistent with the distance of the annular seal 210 protruding from the outer circumferential wall of the piston 200 along the radial direction of the piston 200, that is, the areas of the cold water acting on the annular seal 210 and the first annular protrusion 220 are equal in the vertical direction, the forces of the cold water acting on the annular seal 210 and the first annular protrusion 220 are offset, the piston 200 is not affected by the cold water pressure, and the load applied to the temperature sensing element 300 connected to the piston 200 is small when the piston 200 moves. Since the water pressure in the second balance chamber 202 is uniform, when the distance of the second annular protrusion 230 protruding from the outer circumferential wall of the piston 200 in the radial direction of the piston 200 is uniform with the distance of the annular seal 210 protruding from the outer circumferential wall of the piston 200 in the radial direction of the piston 200, that is, the areas of the hot water acting on the annular seal 210 and the second annular protrusion 230 are equal in the vertical direction, the forces of the hot water acting on the annular seal 210 and the second annular protrusion 230 cancel each other, and the piston 200 is free from the influence of the hot water pressure, and the load applied to the temperature sensing element 300 connected to the piston 200 is small when the piston 200 moves. Therefore, the piston 200 is hardly affected by the water pressure at the cold water inlet 101 and the hot water inlet 102, which is beneficial to truly feeding back the deformation of the temperature sensing element 300 to the displacement of the piston 200, helping the water outlet temperature adjusting device to accurately adjust the sizes of the cold water inlet channel 103 and the hot water inlet channel 104, thereby achieving the effect of accurately controlling the water temperature and being beneficial to prolonging the service life of the water outlet temperature adjusting device.
Referring to fig. 3, in some embodiments of the present utility model, when the piston 200 moves to close the cold water inlet channel 103 or the hot water inlet channel 104, the first balance chamber 201 remains in communication with the cold water inlet 101 and the second balance chamber 202 remains in communication with the hot water inlet 102. Specifically, a first communication port 221 is provided between the first annular protrusion 220 and the cold water inlet 101, a second communication port 231 is provided between the second annular protrusion 230 and the hot water inlet 102, cold water at the cold water inlet 101 enters the first balance chamber 201 from the first communication port 221, and hot water at the hot water inlet 102 enters the second balance chamber 202 from the second communication port 231. When the piston 200 moves to close the hot water inlet passage 104, the first communication port 221 is contracted, but the first communication port 221 still keeps the cold water inlet 101 and the first balance chamber 201 in communication, the second communication port 231 is expanded, and the second communication port 231 keeps the hot water inlet 102 and the second balance chamber 202 in communication; when the piston 200 moves to close the cold water inlet passage 103, the first communication port 221 expands and the second communication port 231 contracts, the first communication port 221 keeps the cold water inlet 101 and the first balance chamber 201 in communication, and the second communication port 231 keeps the hot water inlet 102 and the second balance chamber 202 in communication; thereby ensuring that the thrust required for the movement of the piston 200 is not affected.
Referring to fig. 5, in some embodiments of the present utility model, the outer circumferential wall of the piston 200 is provided with a plurality of guide ribs 240 distributed around the center circumference of the piston 200, and the guide ribs 240 are extended in the up-down direction to be connected to the first annular protrusion 220, the annular seal 210, and the second annular protrusion 230. It will be appreciated that the provision of a plurality of guide ribs 240 distributed around the central circumference of the piston 200 has a guiding effect on the sliding of the piston 200 in the up-down direction. When the annular sealing member 210 slides up and down along the inner circumferential wall of the valve housing assembly 100, the annular sealing member 210 is easily deformed in the up and down direction, so that the movement of the piston 200 is affected, and the guide rib 240 can have a supporting effect on the annular sealing member 210 in the up and down direction, reducing unnecessary deformation of the annular sealing member 210.
In addition, in general, the annular seal 210 is held in contact with the inner peripheral wall of the valve housing assembly 100 by elastic deformation thereof to achieve a sealing effect, thereby isolating the first balance chamber 201 and the second balance chamber 202 from the cold water and the hot water, and thus the annular seal 210 is made of a soft rubber material. In this embodiment, the annular seal 210 and the piston 200 are two separate pieces, and then the annular seal 210 is fixed to the piston 200. When the piston 200 is also made of plastic, the annular seal 210 and the piston 200 may be connected by ultrasonic plastic welding or adhesive fixing. Of course, in other embodiments, the annular seal 210 is mounted to the piston 200 by other means, or the annular seal 210 and the piston 200 are of unitary plastic construction.
Referring to fig. 1 and 2, in some embodiments of the present utility model, the valve housing assembly 100 is cylindrical, and a plurality of cold water inlets 101 and hot water inlets 102 are distributed around the axial circumference of the valve housing assembly 100 on the outer circumferential wall of the valve housing assembly 100, so that cold water uniformly enters the first balance chamber 201, hot water uniformly enters the second balance chamber 202, excessive water inlet pressure at a local position of the piston 200 caused by a single cold water inlet 101 or hot water inlet 102 is avoided, and smooth sliding of the piston 200 is ensured.
Referring to fig. 2, in some embodiments of the present utility model, a cold water inlet chamber 203 capable of communicating with the cold water inlet channel 103 is provided between an upper portion of the piston 200 and the valve housing assembly 100, a warm water mixing chamber 121 is provided between a lower portion of the piston 200 and the valve housing assembly 100, the temperature sensing element 300 is provided to penetrate through a middle portion of the piston 200, the piston 200 is provided with a plurality of water passing channels 250 distributed around a circumference of the temperature sensing element 300, and the water passing channels 250 communicate the cold water inlet chamber 203 with the warm water mixing chamber 121.
Specifically, in order to facilitate assembly of the temperature sensing element 300, the piston 200, and other components, the valve housing assembly 100 includes an upper valve housing 110 and a lower valve housing 120, the upper valve housing 110 and the lower valve housing 120 are detachably connected through a screw structure, and the upper valve housing 110 and the lower valve housing 120 are also detachably connected to facilitate maintenance or repair. In this embodiment, the cold water inlet 101 and the hot water inlet 102 are both provided on the side wall of the lower valve housing 120, and in order to isolate large particles of foreign substances, the outer surface of the lower valve housing 120 is provided with a filter screen covering the cold water inlet 101 and the hot water inlet 102. The piston 200 of the temperature sensing element 300 is slidably disposed in the lower valve housing 120, the warm water mixing chamber 121 is disposed in the lower valve housing 120, the lower end surface of the upper valve housing 110 is opposite to the upper end surface of the piston 200 to define the cold water inlet channel 103, the piston 200 has a concave cavity recessed downward along the upper end surface of the piston 200, the water passing channel 250 is disposed through the concave cavity, and the cold water inlet chamber 203 is defined between the concave cavity and the upper valve housing 110.
The temperature sensing element 300 includes a temperature sensing portion made of a temperature sensing material and a push rod connected to the temperature sensing portion, and the push rod extends upwards to be used for leaning against the temperature adjusting assembly. When the water outlet temperature regulating device is used, cold water enters from the cold water inlet 101, passes through the cold water inlet channel 103 and then enters the cold water inlet cavity 203, then cold water flows into the warm water mixing cavity 121 through the water outlet channel 250, meanwhile, hot water enters from the hot water inlet 102 and enters the warm water mixing cavity 121 after passing through the hot water inlet channel 104, hot water and cold water are mixed in the warm water mixing cavity 121, and then the temperature sensing part of the warm water path senses the temperature of the warm water to expand or contract, so that the piston 200 is driven to move up and down. The plurality of water passages 250 circumferentially distributed around the temperature sensing element 300 facilitate the flow of cold water to a plurality of locations of the mixing chamber, facilitate the rapid mixing of the cold water and the hot water, and also prevent the cold water from being retained in the cold water inlet chamber 203 and exerting a downward force on the piston 200, and prevent the piston 200 from moving upward to reduce the impact on the cold water inlet passage 103.
Referring to fig. 2, in some embodiments of the present utility model, a working spring 410 abutting against the piston 200 to drive the piston 200 to move upward is provided in the warm water mixing chamber 121, an overload spring 420 abutting against the upper end of the temperature sensing element 300 is provided in the valve housing assembly 100, a water blocking seal 500 sealing-connected with the temperature sensing element 300 and the valve housing assembly 100 respectively is provided at the upper portion of the temperature sensing element 300, a cold water inlet chamber 203 is defined between the water blocking seal 500 and the piston 200, and a sealing chamber 510 above the cold water inlet chamber 203 is defined between the water blocking seal 500 and the valve housing assembly 100. It will be appreciated that when the temperature of the warm water in the warm water mixing chamber 121 is lower than the set temperature, the temperature sensing element 300 contracts to drive the piston 200 to move upward, thereby reducing or closing the cold water inlet passage 103. If the amount of cold water flowing in from the cold water inlet channel 103 is still too large, at this time, the pressure in the cold water inlet cavity 203 is greater than the pressure in the sealing cavity 510, the pressure difference between the cold water inlet cavity 203 and the sealing cavity 510 can push the temperature sensing element 300 to move upwards, and because the piston 200 is fixedly connected with the temperature sensing element 300, the piston 200 is pushed upwards, thereby reducing the size of the cold water inlet channel 103, and because the pressure difference exists between the cold water inlet cavity 203 and the sealing cavity 510, the force value required by the working spring 410 for the piston 200 is reduced, so that the load force applied by the temperature sensing element 300 in a stable state is reduced, and the service life of the water outlet temperature adjusting device is prolonged.
Referring to fig. 2, in some embodiments of the present utility model, a temperature-adjusting valve rod 610 is rotatably disposed at an upper end of the valve housing assembly 100, a valve rod sleeve 620 capable of moving up and down relative to the valve housing assembly 100 is threadedly coupled to the temperature-adjusting valve rod 610, a pressing member 630 abutting against an upper end of the temperature sensing element 300 is elastically coupled to the valve rod sleeve 620, and both the junction of the temperature-adjusting valve rod 610 and the valve rod sleeve 620 and the pressing member 630 are disposed in the sealing chamber 510. The portion of the temperature-adjusting valve rod 610 rotating relative to the valve housing assembly 100 is a polish rod portion, the temperature-adjusting valve rod 610 can only rotate relative to the valve housing assembly 100 and cannot move up and down, in order to isolate the external environment and the connection between the temperature-adjusting valve rod 610 and the valve rod sleeve 620, the oxidation corrosion process of the connection between the temperature-adjusting valve rod 610 and the valve rod sleeve 620 is slowed down, and a sealing ring is arranged between the polish rod portion and the valve housing assembly 100.
The temperature-adjusting valve rod 610 is provided with external threads, and accordingly, the valve rod sleeve 620 is provided with an internal threaded hole matched with the external threads of the temperature-adjusting valve rod 610. In the conventional thermostatic valve core, water can enter between the external thread of the temperature-adjusting valve rod 610 and the internal thread hole of the valve rod sleeve 620, after being soaked and flushed by water for a long time, lubricating oil between the temperature-adjusting valve rod 610 and the valve rod sleeve 620 can run off, and scale, sediment and the like can also accumulate between the external thread of the temperature-adjusting valve rod 610 and the internal thread hole of the valve rod sleeve 620, so that the temperature-adjusting valve rod 610 is easy to jam when rotating, and the use experience of a user is affected.
In the above scheme, the waterproof sealing member 500 can wrap the thread structure between the temperature-adjusting valve rod 610 and the valve rod sleeve 620 inside the sealing cavity 510, so that water in the cold water inlet cavity 203 cannot invade the sealing cavity 510, lubricating oil between the temperature-adjusting valve rod 610 and the valve rod sleeve 620 is prevented from losing, the problem that scale and silt are accumulated between the external thread of the temperature-adjusting valve rod 610 and the internal thread hole of the valve rod sleeve 620 is avoided, and the long-term use stability of the water outlet temperature adjusting device is enhanced.
The both ends of the overload spring 420 are respectively abutted against the valve rod sleeve 620 and the pressing member 630, and the overload spring 420 applies a downward force to the push rod at the upper portion of the temperature sensing element 300. When the water outlet temperature needs to be adjusted, the user rotates the temperature-adjusting valve stem 610, and the valve stem sleeve 620 moves upward or downward relative to the valve housing assembly 100, so that the elastic abutment force applied to the push rod of the temperature sensing element 300 by the pressing piece 630 is adjusted, thereby achieving the purpose of water temperature adjustment.
