Detailed Description
The filter element is additionally arranged on the water inlet pipeline of the existing water heater for the health of a user and prolonging the service life of the inner container so as to purify water quality. But after long-term use, a large amount of silt, particulate matters, water rust and the like are accumulated on the surface of the filter element to pollute the filter element, and the pollutants can influence the smoothness of water flow, reduce the filtering effect of the filter element, and simultaneously can breed bacteria and harm the health of a user. Therefore, the use condition of the filter element needs to be known in time and the filter element needs to be cleaned or replaced. The existing water heater usually judges whether the filter element needs to be cleaned and replaced through using time or human perception. The service condition of the filter element is judged according to the filtering flow or the filtering time of some existing water heaters, but the service condition of the filter element is judged according to different water quality conditions by completely adopting the flow and the time, and the working state of the filter element cannot be accurately reflected. In addition, because the cleaning generally needs more complicated engineering, most users directly replace the filter element instead of cleaning when finding that the effect of the filter element is reduced. This actually causes waste and an increase in use cost. There is a need for a water heater that can not only timely and accurately determine the usage of the filter element, but also automatically clean the filter element, and prompt the user to replace the filter element when the filter element cannot be thoroughly cleaned.
The filter element is judged according to two items of information of water pressure and water flow, and whether the filter element needs to be cleaned is determined only when the numerical values of the water pressure and the water flow meet the judgment standard, so that the judgment is more accurate. The water inlet pipeline of the existing water heater is a water channel flowing through the filter element, impurities in water can be deposited on one side of water inlet, and if water flow can flow reversely, deposited impurities on the water inlet side can be washed. Therefore, the water inlet pipe of the water heater only adds one backwashing pipe on the pipeline system, thereby realizing the cleaning function and greatly reducing the complexity of disassembling the filter element and the complexity of manually cleaning the filter element. And only 2 three-way valves and one blowoff valve are used in the specific implementation process, the switching of the normal water inlet and the backwashing water channel is completed, the structure is simple, and the reliability is high.
Example one
The embodiment is a basic structure embodiment of the invention, can realize the judgment of the use condition of the filter element and realize the cleaning, but the cleaning process needs to manually control the valve, and the automation degree is not high.
As shown in fig. 1, a water heater with cleaning function is reminded to filter core, including water heater body 1, be provided with controller 9 on water heater body 1, be provided with filter core 3 on water inlet tube 2 of water heater body 1, the inlet tube is intake section 21 in filter core water inlet one side, is out water section 22 on filter core delivery port one side, it is provided with intake section pressure sensor 41 and intake section flow sensor 51 be connected with controller 9 on the section 21 to intake, it is provided with and is connected out water section pressure sensor 42 and play water section flow sensor 52 with control 9 on the play water section.
The purpose of setting up pressure and flow sensor is to detect water pressure and discharge information on the section 21 of intaking and the section 22 of exhaling, because after certain impurity accumulation of filter core, can influence the smooth and easy degree of rivers, lead to two sections front and back inlet tubes of filter core 3, that is to say section 21 of intaking and the section 22 of exhaling produce pressure differential and flow difference. When the pressure difference and the flow difference reach set values, the impurities on the filter element need to be cleaned.
Further, the water inlet section pressure sensor 41, the water inlet section flow sensor 51, the water outlet section pressure sensor 42 and the water outlet section flow sensor 52 are all connected to a controller 9, the controller 9 receives the sensor signals and calculates the pressure difference and the flow difference, and when the pressure difference and the flow difference between the water inlet section 21 and the water outlet section 22 reach set values, the CPU91 of the controller 9 sends out a cleaning prompt through the prompt module 92.
Further, the cleaning function is realized by arranging a backwashing pipe 6, two end parts of the backwashing pipe 6 are respectively communicated with the water inlet section 21 and the water outlet section 22 through connecting pieces, and the connecting pieces are three-way valves. The three-way valve connected with the backwash pipe and the water inlet section is a water inlet section three-way valve 71, and the three-way valve connected with the backwash pipe and the water outlet section is a water outlet section three-way valve 72. For clarity, the inlet pipe 10 is disposed between the three-way valve 71 and the filter element 3, and the outlet pipe 11 is disposed between the three-way valve 72 and the filter element 3. The three ports on the water inlet section three-way valve 71 are respectively a port A, a port B and a port C, wherein the port A is connected with the water inlet section 21, the port B is connected with the backwashing pipe 6, and the port C is connected with the inlet pipe 10. The three ports on the water outlet section three-way valve 72 are respectively a port D, a port E and a port F, wherein the port D is connected with the outlet pipe 10, the port E is connected with the backwashing pipe 6, and the port F is connected with the water outlet section 22.
Further, in order to ensure the outflow of the cleaned sewage, a sewage draining outlet 8 needs to be arranged, and the sewage draining outlet 8 can be arranged on the shell of the filter element 3 and also can be arranged on the inlet pipe 10. When the sewage draining outlet 8 is arranged on the shell of the filter element 3, the sewage draining outlet 8 is arranged on the side close to the water inlet of the filter element in consideration of the fact that impurities are easier to deposit on the side close to the water inlet of the filter element; if the filter element is arranged on one side close to the water outlet of the filter element, water flow just enters the filter element and flows out of the sewage draining outlet when the filter element is cleaned, and the filter element cannot be cleaned effectively. Therefore, when the sewage draining outlet is arranged on the shell of the filter element 3, the sewage draining outlet is arranged at one side close to the water inlet of the filter element.
Further, the sewage draining outlet can be arranged on the inlet pipe 10, when the sewage draining outlet is arranged on the inlet pipe 10, water flow during cleaning can flow through the whole filter element, the cleaning effect is best, and therefore the sewage draining outlet is preferably arranged on the inlet pipe 10 in the embodiment.
Further, in order to ensure that the water heater can normally feed water during normal operation, the drain valve 81 is required to be arranged at the drain outlet, and after the cleaning is finished, the drain valve 81 is closed to ensure that the water can normally flow into the water heater.
Further, when the water heater is normally used, the port B of the water inlet section three-way valve 71 is closed, and the ports A and C are opened; the port E of the water outlet section three-way valve 72 is closed, and the ports D and F are opened; at this time, the inlet water flows into the water heater 1 through the water inlet section 21, the filter element 3 and the water outlet section 22.
Further, when the filter element is cleaned, the port C of the water inlet section three-way valve 71 is closed, and the ports A and B are opened; the port F of the water outlet section three-way valve 72 is closed, and the ports D and E are opened; at the moment, the inlet water flows out of the sewage outlet 8 through the water inlet section 21, the backwashing pipe 6, the outlet pipe 11, the filter element 3, the inlet pipe 10 and the sewage outlet 8.
Further, considering that water containing a large amount of impurities flows through the inlet pipe 10 and the outlet pipe 11 during cleaning, in order to prevent damage to the sensors, to extend the life of the sensors, and to prevent the pressure sensors and the water flow rate sensors from being disposed on the inlet pipe 10 and the outlet pipe 11. The pressure sensor and the water flow rate sensor are preferably provided on portions other than the inlet pipe 10 and the outlet pipe 11.

The cleaning module 93 is used for electrifying the water inlet section three-way valve 71, the water outlet section three-way valve 72 and the blowdown valve 81, closing the port C of the water inlet section three-way valve 71, and opening the ports A and B; the port F of the water outlet section three-way valve 72 is closed, and the ports D and E are opened; at the moment, the inlet water flows out of the sewage outlet 8 through the water inlet section 21, the backwashing pipe 6, the outlet pipe 11, the filter element 3, the inlet pipe 10 and the sewage outlet 8.
Further, the controller 9 further comprises a timing module 94 connected to the CPU91 for recording the working time of the cleaning module 93 after being started. When the timing module reaches the time of T1, the cleaning module 93 is closed, the water inlet section three-way valve 71, the water outlet section three-way valve 72 and the blowdown valve 81 are powered off, the port B of the water inlet section three-way valve 71 is closed, and the port A and the port C are opened; the port E of the water outlet section three-way valve 72 is closed, and the ports D and F are opened; at this time, the inlet water flows into the water heater 1 through the water inlet section 21, the filter element 3 and the water outlet section 22, and the normal working state is recovered.
Further, a display module 95 is included which is connected to the CPU 91. When the cleaning is finished at the time of T1, the water pressure and water flow information of the water inlet section 21 and the water outlet section 22 are detected again, the pressure difference and the flow difference between the water inlet section 21 and the water outlet section 22 are measured and calculated, and if the pressure difference and the flow difference are still larger than or equal to the set values, a filter element replacement prompt is displayed on the display module 95.
