Description
水箱 技术领域
本发明涉及一种制冷设备, 尤其是涉及一种水箱。 背景技术
现在的高端水箱普遍带有自动制水机, 可以实现不开门取水, 同时利用取水窗口实 现低温饮用水的取用功能。 为保证水块和冷水的长期自动取用, 一般将水箱水路系统的 总进水管直接与城市供水管道连接, 水进入水箱后, 先通过过滤器过滤, 使水盾达到直 接饮用的标准, 通过过滤器后, 水路分成两路, 第一路进入制水机, 通过阀门控制通断, 根据制水需要供水, 第二路进入储水装置, 一般称之为水箱, 水箱布置在水箱的某个位 置, 通过某种方法使水箱中的水温达到适合饮用的温度, 此路水通过阀门控制出水, 在 需要的时候将冷水释放出来。
传统水箱的水箱布置在冷藏室底部一侧, 因冷藏室底部通常是变温室, 温度可能会 低于零摄氏度, 所以水箱的表面需要贴覆加热丝, 防止水箱内水结水, 由此结构和控制 均比较复杂,世纪运行阶段水箱内的水温不宜控制。另外, 由于水箱在冷藏室底部一侧, 而冷水出口在冷藏门处, 因此水箱与冷水出口之间的管路较长, 并且管路在发泡层内导 致温度较高, 由此此段管路内的水的温度将无法控制, 使得使用者可能在取水很长时间 后才能得到足够低温的水。
进一步地, 由于连接水箱各部件的水管, 除了连接过滤器的两根水管外露在箱体外 部之外, 其余均在发泡层内布置。 这样, 布置预埋管路的工艺比较复杂, 而且存在大量 需要密封的接头, 同时占有有效的保温材料, 对节能降耗很不利。 发明内容
本发明旨在至少解决现有技术中存在的技术问题之一。 为此, 本发明的一个目的在 于提出一种取水方便快捷且可靠的水箱。
根据本发明实施例的一种水箱, 包括: 箱体, 所述箱体前侧设有开口且内部限定有 冷藏室, 所述箱体包括箱壳和所述箱壳内的箱胆, 在所述箱壳和箱胆之间设有隔热发泡 层; 箱门, 所述箱门安装在箱体上以打开和关闭所述开口且包括绕铰链轴枢转以关闭和 打开所述冷藏室的冷藏门; 制水机组件, 所述制水机组件设置在所述冷藏室第一侧的上 方; 水水分配器组件, 所述水水分配器组件设置在冷藏门上, 且位置与所述制水机组件 对应; 水箱, 所述水箱设置在冷藏门的下部, 且位于所述水水分配器组件下方; 以及管 路系统, 所述管路系统包括总进水管和与总进水管相连的多个管路, 所述总进水管适于 与外界供水管道连接,所述多个管路用于将总进水管内的水分别供给所述制水机组件和 水箱内, 且将水和水汇入水水分配器组件中。
根据本发明实施例的水箱,水箱设置在冷藏门的下部,且位于水水分配器组件下方。
水箱布置在冷藏门的下部,有效利用了空间,不影响冷藏室内的正常的储物空间。另夕卜, 冷藏室内的标准温度为 5摄氏度, 且冷藏门关闭后水箱位于冷藏室的下方, 由于冷空气 下降而热空气上升,使得位于下方的水箱温度能低于冷藏室内的温度,例如为 2摄氏度, 这样, 水温将会保持在口感最好的状态, 即温度在 1 -3摄氏度的范围之内。 另外, 对于 有变温室的水箱, 由于水箱设置在冷藏门的下部,远离了变温室, 因此没有结水的危险, 不需要布置加热丝, 有利于结构筒化。
另外, 根据本发明的水箱还具有如下附加技术特征:
所述水箱进一步包括过滤部件, 所述过滤部件设置在所述冷藏室第二侧的上方, 且 连接在总进水管与多个管路之间, 以过滤从总进水管中流出的水。
所述水箱进一步包括安装基座, 所述过滤部件可拆卸地安装在所述安装基座上。 这 样, 当过滤部件失效后, 可以快速更换。
所述水箱进一步包括用于控制所述多个管路流量的阀门组件, 所述阀门组件包括: 第一阀门, 所述第一阀门连接在所述过滤器与所述制水机组件之间, 以控制流入制水机 组件的水流量; 以及第二阀门, 所述第二阀门连接在所述过滤器与所述水箱之间, 以控 制流入水箱的水流量。
所述阀门组件进一步包括第三阀门, 所述第三阀门连接在总进水管与过滤器之间。 在过滤部件之前设置第三阀门, 可防止水压过大而对整个水箱的管路系统造成冲击,提 高了水箱制水和取水的可靠性。
所述阀门组件进一步包括流量计, 所述流量计连接在所述第一阀门和制水机组件之 间的通路上, 以在不同水压下更精确地控制流入制水机组件的流量。
所述水箱进一步包括三通, 所述三通连接在所述过滤部件和第二、 第二阀门之间, 用于将总进水管中流出的水分别分配到所述制水机组件和水箱中。
所述多个管路包括: 第一管路, 所述第一管路连通所述第三阀门和过滤部件; 第二 管路, 所述第二管路连通所述过滤部件和三通; 第三管路, 所述第三管路连通所述流量 计和制水机组件; 以及第四管路, 所述第四管路连通所述第二阀门和水箱。
所述管路系统进一步包括: 第一预埋套管, 所述第一预埋套管预埋在箱体的后背板 顶部的发泡层内, 且位置对应于所述制水机组件, 所述第三管路和第四管路穿设在所述 预埋套管中以从箱体外部进入内部; 第一预埋管路, 所述第一预埋管路预埋在所述冷藏 门内且位于冷藏门的第一侧, 其一端连通水箱, 而另一端通过管接头与第四管路连接; 以及第二预埋管路,所述第二预埋管路预埋在冷藏门内且与所述第一预埋管路位于同一 侧, 以连通所述水箱与所述水水分配器组件。
这样, 由于水箱与水水分配器组件都在同一侧的冷藏门上并且距离水水分配器组件 近, 中间的第二预埋管路较短, 因此, 使用者取水方便快捷, 并且管路内残留的温度不 合适的水较少。
所述对应于制水机组件的箱体顶部形成有第一开口, 所述第三管路从箱体外部穿过 第一预埋套管后通过所述第一开口与制水机组件相连。
在所述冷藏门上第一侧临近铰链轴处形成有第二开口, 所述第一预埋管路穿出所述 第二开口通过管接头与第四管路连接。
根据本发明实施例的水箱, 管路大部分都布置在箱体的外侧, 在箱体内预埋管道极 少, 还减少了预埋管对发泡保温层的占用, 提高了节能降耗的水平, 另外, 降低了发泡 预装工艺的难度。 进一步地, 由于所有管路都在发泡后期安装, 由此, 任何管路损坏时 都可以快速更换或维修, 大大地提高了可靠性和可维护性。

过滤部件 7的安装基座 70后部的箱体发泡层 12之内, 预埋有第二预埋套管 68 , 这 样, 第一管路 61和第二管路 62穿设在第二预埋套管 68内从而穿过发泡层, 以便从箱 体 1的外部进入冷藏室内, 并且与过滤部件 7的安装基座 70相连接, 以与过滤部件 7 连通。
在本发明的一个实施例中, 还进一步包括阀门组件 8。 阀门组件 8包括位于过滤部 件 7的下游的第一阀门 (图未示)和第二阀门 (图未示) 以及流量计(图未示) 。 在本 发明的一个示例中, 在过滤部件 7的上游还设置有第三阀门 81 , 这样, 在过滤部件之 前设置第三阀门 81 , 可防止水压过大而对整个水箱的管路系统造成冲击, 提高了水箱 制;水和取水的可靠性。
在本发明的再一个实施例中, 还进一步包括三通, 所述三通连接在过滤部件 7的下 游, 并与第一、 第二阀门连通, 用于将总进水管中流出的水分别分配到制水机组件 3 和水箱 5中并分别控制流入制水机组件 3和水箱 5中的水的流量。
如图 1-图 5中所示, 根据本发明实施例的水箱的制水机组件 3、 水水分配器组件 4、 水箱 5、 过滤部件 7和阀门组件 8通过管路系统 6进行连接, 下面将进行具体说明。
首先, 外部供水管路连通总进水管 60 , 并与第三阀门连接, 第一管路 61连通第三 阀门和过滤部件 7。 第二管路 62连通过滤部件 7和三通。 三通将第二管路 62中的水流
分成两路, 分别经过第一和第二阀门控制流量, 第一阀门通过第三管路 63连接到制水 机组件 3 , 流量计连接在第一阀门和制水机组件 3之间的通路上, 以在不同水压下更精 确地控制流入制水机组件 3的流量。
第二阀门通过第四管路 64和第一预埋管路 66连通到水箱 5。 具体地, 第一预埋管 路 66预埋在冷藏门 2内且位于冷藏门 2的第一侧, 其一端连通水箱 5 , 而另一端通过 管接头 9与第四管路 64连接。 在本发明的一个示例中, 在冷藏门 2上第一侧临近铰链 轴处形成有第二开口 21 , 第一预埋管路 66穿出第二开口 21通过管接头 9与第四管路 64连接。 可选地, 第二开口 21可为铰链轴所在的铰链孔。
进一步地,第二预埋管路 67预埋在冷藏门 2内,且与第一预埋管路 66位于同一侧, 以连通水箱 5与水水分配器组件 4。 这样, 由于水箱 2与水水分配器组件 4都在同一侧 的冷藏门 2上并且距离水水分配器组件 4近, 中间的第二预埋管路 67较短, 因此, 使 用者取水方便快捷, 并且管路内残留的温度不合适的水较少。
在本发明的一个示例中, 第一预埋套管 65和第二预埋套管 68分别预埋在箱体 1的 后背板顶部两侧的发泡层 12内, 且位置分别对应于制水机组件 3和过滤部件 7。 第一 管路 61和第二管路 62穿设在第二预埋套管 68中以从箱体 1的外部后侧与箱体 1 内部 的过滤部件 7连通, 而第三管路 63和第四管路 64穿设在第一预埋套管 65中以从箱体 1外部后侧与箱体 1 内部的制水机组件相连。 如图 1、 图 3和图 5所示。
在本发明的另一个示例中, 如图 3所示, 在对应于制水机组件 3的箱体 1的顶部形 成有第一开口 13 , 第三管路 63穿过第一预埋套管 65后通过第一开口 13与制水机组件 3相连。
根据本发明实施例的水箱, 管路大部分都布置在箱体的外侧, 在箱体内预埋管道极 少, 还减少了预埋管对发泡保温层的占用, 提高了节能降耗的水平, 另外, 降低了发泡 预装工艺的难度。 进一步地, 由于所有管路都在发泡后期安装, 由此, 任何管路损坏时 都可以快速更换或维修, 大大地提高了可靠性和可维护性。
下面将根据图 6详细描述根据本发明实施例的水箱的制水和取水过程。
首先, 外部供水管路中的水通过总进水管 60进入第三阀门 81之后, 经过第一管路 61进入过滤部件 7进行过滤, 使水盾达到直接饮用的标准。
而后, 过滤部件 7中过滤后的水通过第二管路 62后再通过三通将水路分成两路: 一路进入制水机组件 3中, 经过第一阀门控制通断, 并根据制水的需要进行供水, 制出 的水被送入水水分配器中。 另一路通过第二阀门后进入水箱 5中, 并通过冷藏门 2内部 预埋的第二预埋管路 67进入水水分配器中。
最后, 使用者可从水水分配器中取出所需要的水或水。
在本说明书的描述中, 参考术语 "一个实施例" 、 "一些实施例" 、 "示意性实施 例" 、 "示例" 、 "具体示例" 、 或 "一些示例" 等的描述意指结合该实施例或示例描 述的具体特征、 结构、 材料或者特点包含于本发明的至少一个实施例或示例中。 在本说 明书中, 对上述术语的示意性表述不一定指的是相同的实施例或示例。 而且, 描述的具
体特征、结构、材料或者特点可以在任何的一个或多个实施例或示例中以合适的方式结 合。
尽管已经示出和描述了本发明的实施例, 本领域的普通技术人员可以理解: 在不脱 离本发明的原理和宗旨的情况下可以对这些实施例进行多种变化、 修改、 替换和变型, 本发明的范围由权利要求及其等同物限定。
