The following describes the diversion plate 2 of the drinking water equipment according to the embodiment of the first aspect of the present application with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be noted that the diversion plate 2 of the present application can be applied to components such as the cold tank 01 of the water dispenser that require diversion operations. Take the distribution plate 2 applied to the cold tank 01 as an example: as shown in Figure 3, the volume of the cold tank 01 in the water dispenser can be divided into the cold water area 12 wrapped by the evaporator and the warm water area 11 not wrapped by the evaporator. The diverter plate 2 can prevent the natural convection and heat conduction heat exchange of warm water and cold water in the cold tank 01.

As shown in FIG. 2 to FIG. 8 , the diverter plate 2 of the drinking water device according to the embodiment of the present application includes at least two transverse partitions, and a plurality of transverse partitions are suitable for being arranged at intervals along the length direction of the tank body 1 .

Among the above-mentioned multiple diaphragms, the diaphragm at the top is the top diaphragm 21, and the diaphragm at the bottom is the bottom diaphragm 22, wherein, between the top diaphragm 21 and the bottom diaphragm 22 An accommodating space 20 suitable for accommodating liquid is formed, and the top diaphragm 21 is provided with an inlet groove 211, and the bottom diaphragm 22 is provided with an outlet groove 221, and the inlet groove 211, the accommodating space 20 and the outlet groove 221 communicate with each other.

According to the embodiment of the present application, take the diversion plate 2 applied to the cold tank 01 of the water dispenser as an example for illustration: the tank body 1 of the cold tank 01 forms a water storage cavity 10, and the diversion plate 2 is fixed in the water storage cavity 10. , a plurality of transverse partitions are placed horizontally in the water storage chamber 10, and a plurality of transverse partitions are arranged at intervals along the length direction of the water storage chamber 10, so that the transverse partitions divide the water storage chamber 10 into three areas, three The zones are respectively the warm water zone 11 above the top diaphragm 21 , the accommodation space 20 between the top diaphragm 21 and the top diaphragm 21 , and the cold water region 12 below the bottom diaphragm 22 .

It can be understood that in the water dispenser, the hot tank supplies water to the warm water zone 11 through the pipeline, and the warm water zone 11 supplies water to the cold water zone 12 through the distribution plate 2. Therefore, in this application, when the water in the cold water zone 12 is insufficient, the warm water The water in zone 11 enters into the accommodation space 20 through the inlet groove 211 on the top diaphragm 21, and the water in the accommodation space 20 enters the cold water region 12 through the outlet groove 221 on the bottom diaphragm 22, thereby realizing the warm water region 11 Water supply to cold water zone 12.

As shown in Figure 1, in the related art, the diverter plate of the traditional water dispenser cold tank 01 has only one layer of plate diverter plate 001, the upper part of the plate is warm water, and the lower part is cold water, which has not effectively realized the difference between warm water and cold water The effect of anti-crossover temperature, so that warm water consumes cooling capacity, there is no warm water phenomenon, but also leads to short cooling and heat preservation time, high cooling energy consumption.

In order to solve the above-mentioned technical problems in the related art, the diverter plate 2 of the present application is provided with at least two layers of transverse partitions, so that the heat insulation effect and anti-cross-temperature effect between the warm water area 11 and the cold water area 12 in the cold tank 01 are better. good.

Further, since the accommodating space 20 is formed between the top transverse baffle 21 and the bottom transverse baffle 22, the water in the warm water zone 11 first enters the accommodating space 20 and then enters the cold water zone 12. At this time, the water in the warm water zone 11 The water temperature is higher than the water temperature in the storage space 20 , and the water temperature in the storage space 20 is higher than the water temperature in the cold water zone 12 .

It can be understood that in this application, since the warm water area 11 is adjacent to the storage space 20 and not adjacent to the cold water area 12, the water in the warm water area 11 directly exchanges heat with the water in the storage space 20, and because the warm water area The temperature difference between 11 and the storage space 20 is much smaller than the temperature difference between the warm water zone 11 and the cold water zone 12, so compared with the direct heat exchange between the warm water zone 11 and the cold water zone 12 in the related art, in this application, the storage space The heat exchange efficiency between 20 and the warm water zone 11 is worse, so that the adverse effect (i.e. cooling) on the warm water zone 11 will be smaller, and then the water temperature in the warm water zone 11 can be kept at a higher temperature value to meet the user's requirements.

Similarly, in this application, since the cold water area 12 is adjacent to the storage space 20 and not adjacent to the warm water area 11, the water in the cold water area 12 directly exchanges heat with the water in the storage space 20, and because the cold water area The temperature difference between the storage space 12 and the storage space 20 is much smaller than the temperature difference between the warm water zone 11 and the cold water zone 12, so compared with the related art, in this application, the heat exchange efficiency between the storage space 20 and the cold water zone 12 is worse, thus The adverse effect (ie, temperature rise) on the cold water zone 12 will be smaller, and then the water temperature in the cold water zone 12 can be kept at a lower temperature value to meet the user's use requirements.

To sum up, the accommodation space 20 formed by the diverter plate 2 of the present application can play the role of transition and buffer, thereby avoiding the direct adjacency of the cold water area 12 and the warm water area 11, thereby reducing the impact of the warm water area 11 on the cold water area 12. The adverse effects that come, that is, the consumption of cooling capacity by warm water is reduced, and the adverse effects brought by the cold water area 12 that the warm water area 11 is subjected to, that is, the consumption of heat by cold water is reduced. In this way, not only can Raising the water temperature in the warm water zone 11 can also ensure that the water temperature in the cold water zone 12 is at a lower value, and reduce the cooling energy consumption and prolong the cooling and heat preservation time.

To sum up, according to the diverter plate 2 of the drinking water equipment of the present application, the effect of heat insulation and preventing temperature crossover is better, and it can ensure that the water temperature in the warm water zone 11 and the water temperature in the cold water zone 12 respectively meet the use requirements, and reduce the energy consumption of refrigeration. Extended cooling time.

According to an embodiment of the present application, the above-mentioned diaphragm can be installed and fixed in the tank body 1 through various structures. For example, as shown in Figure 3, the diaphragm is installed and fixed by the support member 23. At this time, a plurality of diaphragms can be fixed on the outer peripheral surface of the support member 23 along the length direction of the support member 23, and the support member 23 and the tank body 1. Fixed connection; for another example, the diaphragm can be directly fixed on the inner wall surface of the water storage chamber 10 by welding, bonding, riveting, etc., or the diaphragm and the tank body 1 can be integrally formed.

It should be noted that the present application does not specifically limit the fixing structure of the diaphragm, as long as the diaphragm can be installed and fixed in the water storage chamber 10 .

According to an embodiment of the present application, the number of the above-mentioned transverse partitions may be two, three or four. For example, as shown in FIG. 3 , the diverter plate 2 includes two diaphragms and is respectively a top diaphragm 21 and a bottom diaphragm 22; another example, the diverter plate 2 includes more than two diaphragms, wherein, Adjacent to the warm water area 11 is a top diaphragm 21 , adjacent to the cold water area 12 is a bottom diaphragm 22 , and several intermediate diaphragms are arranged between the top diaphragm 21 and the bottom diaphragm 22 .

It should be noted that there is no special limitation on the number of transverse partitions in this application, as long as there are at least two layers of transverse partitions in the distribution plate 2 and the accommodation space 20 can be formed.

As shown in Figures 3 to 6, in one embodiment of the present application, the number of diaphragms is two as an example for illustration, the diverter plate 2 includes a support 23 and a diaphragm assembly, and the diaphragm assembly is fixed on the support The outer peripheral surface of the member 23, the diaphragm assembly only includes two diaphragms, and the two diaphragms are respectively the top diaphragm 21 and the bottom diaphragm 22, and the top diaphragm 21 and the bottom diaphragm 22 are along the The support members 23 are arranged at intervals in the length direction.

An accommodation space 20 is formed between the top diaphragm 21 and the bottom diaphragm 22, the top diaphragm 21 is formed with an inlet groove 211, the bottom diaphragm 22 is formed with an outlet groove 221, the inlet groove 211, the accommodation space 20 and the outlet The grooves 221 communicate sequentially.

Compared with the embodiment in which three or four horizontal partitions are provided in equal numbers, since only two horizontal partitions are provided in this embodiment, the flow path of the water flow from the inlet groove 211 to the outlet groove 221 is shorter, Therefore, in this embodiment, the amount of water flowing into the cold water zone 12 is larger, so that the amount of cold water released is larger, and the heat insulation effect of the double-layer structure of the present embodiment is not much different from that of the multi-layer structure. Therefore, the double-layer transverse partition structure of this embodiment can simultaneously ensure the effect of heat insulation and the amount of cooling water to meet the requirements of use, and maintain a better balance between the effect of heat insulation and the amount of cooling water relation.

In addition, in this embodiment, the top diaphragm 21 and the bottom diaphragm 22 are respectively fixed to the support member 23, so that the overall stability of the distribution plate 2 is higher, and the independence of the distribution plate 2 is also better, which is convenient for flow distribution. Disk 2 installation, removal and replacement.

As shown in Figure 4, according to one embodiment of the present application, the support member 23 has opposite first and second ends along its length direction, wherein the top diaphragm 21 and the bottom diaphragm 22 are all arranged on the support member The first end of 23 and the second end of support member 23 are adapted to be connected to the tank body 1 of the cold tank 01 , so as to realize the installation and fixing of the distribution plate 2 inside the tank body 1 .

It should be noted that the support member 23 can be a shape structure such as a support column, a support plate or a support rod, and the diaphragm can be a shape structure such as a circular diaphragm, a square diaphragm or a polygonal diaphragm. The specific shape of the piece 23 and the specific shape of the diaphragm are not specifically limited.

As shown in FIGS. 3 to 6 , in one embodiment of the present application, the support member 23 may be a support column, and the top diaphragm 21 and the bottom diaphragm 22 may be circular diaphragms. When the diverter plate 2 is installed in the cylindrical tank body 1, the length direction of the support column is the same as the length direction of the tank body 1, and the top diaphragm 21 and the bottom diaphragm 22 are all fixed on the upper end of the support column. The lower end of the column is fixed on the bottom wall of the tank body 1 . The top diaphragm 21 and the bottom diaphragm 22 are adapted to the tank body 1 respectively, so that a warm water zone 11 is formed between the top diaphragm 21 and the top wall of the tank body 1, and the bottom diaphragm 22 and the tank body The cold water zone 12 is formed between the bottom walls of the 1 , and the warm water zone 11 and the cold water zone 12 are communicated through the guide channel 201 composed of the inlet groove 211 , the accommodation space 20 and the outlet groove 221 .

As shown in FIG. 6, according to an embodiment of the present application, a first deflector 24 is connected between the top diaphragm 21 and the bottom diaphragm 22, and the first deflector 24 is suitable for directing the flow into the inlet slot 211. The water flow is directed into the containing space 20. In this way, the first deflector 24 can play a role of diversion, so that the water flow in the warm water area 11 can be more smoothly guided into the accommodation space 20 , and the diversion effect is better.

As shown in Figure 6, in one embodiment of the present application, the top diaphragm 21 and the bottom diaphragm 22 are arranged at intervals along the vertical direction, the upper end of the first deflector 24 is fixed on the edge of the inlet slot 211, the first The lower end of the deflector 24 is fixed on the upper surface of the bottom diaphragm 22 , and the first deflector 24 obliquely extends from the edge of the inlet slot 211 to the bottom diaphragm 22 .

As shown in FIG. 6 , according to an embodiment of the present application, the outlet groove 221 is provided with a second deflector 25 , and the second deflector 25 is suitable for guiding the water flow in the accommodating space 20 to the outside of the outlet groove 221 . In this way, the second deflector 25 can play a role of deflecting water, thereby guiding the water flow in the accommodating space 20 to the outside of the outlet groove 221 (that is, into the cold water zone 12 ) more smoothly.

As shown in FIG. 6 , in one embodiment of the present application, the second deflector 25 extends obliquely toward the direction away from the top transverse partition 21 , that is, the second deflector 25 extends obliquely downward, wherein the second The upper end of the deflector 25 is fixed on the edge of the outlet groove 221 , and the lower end of the second deflector 25 extends obliquely toward the cold water zone 12 .

As shown in Figure 1, in the water dispenser in the related art, a single-layer diverter plate 001 is usually arranged in the cold tank 01, and an overflow gap 002 is left between the single-layer diverter plate 001 and the inner wall surface of the tank body. For the water flow in the warm water area to enter the cold water area.

That is to say, in the related art, the flow of water between the warm water area and the cold water area is realized through the overflow gap 002 between the single-layer diverter plate 001 and the inner wall of the tank. The flow gap 002 needs to play the function of water supply, so the size of the flow gap 002 is usually set larger, which leads to a serious problem of temperature crossover between the warm water area and the cold water area; The overflow gap 002 in the gap realizes the water discharge function, and the diversion effect is usually poor, which is easy to cause a dead water area in the tank, thereby causing adverse effects on the amount of cooling water. Therefore, it is usually not able to be successfully exported to the cold water area, resulting in a reduction in the amount of cold water released.

As shown in Figures 3 to 6, in order to solve the above-mentioned defects in the related art, according to an embodiment of the present application, the top diaphragm 21, the first deflector 24, the bottom diaphragm 22 and the second deflector 25 together define a guide channel 201 (not shown in the figure).

In this way, in this embodiment, there is no need to use the gap between the diaphragm and the inner wall of the tank body 1 to discharge water, but to realize the discharge of water from the warm water area 11 to the cold water area 12 through the guide channel 201. On the one hand, due to the accommodating space 20 transition and buffering effect, so the above water release method can effectively prevent the problem of cross temperature between the warm water zone 11 and the cold water zone 12, thereby reducing the cooling energy consumption and prolonging the cooling and heat preservation time; on the other hand, the inlet tank 211 and the outlet tank 211 The groove 221 can minimize the existence of the dead water area in the tank body 1, and the first deflector 24 and the second deflector 25 can improve the diversion effect during the water discharge process, so that the water flow in the warm water area 11 can be smoothly put into the cold water In the zone 12, in summary, the above water release method can also realize the improvement of the amount of cold water discharge.

It should be noted that, in one embodiment of the present application, when the diverter plate 2 is installed in the tank body 1 of the cold tank 01, the diaphragms (i.e., the top diaphragm 21 and the bottom diaphragm 22, etc.) The edge can be spaced apart from the inner wall of the tank body 1 . It can be understood that the reason for the above-mentioned "interval setting" is not to realize the function of discharging water, but only to leave an installation gap 13 for the installation of the diverter plate 2, so as to facilitate the installation of the diverter plate 2. In this embodiment, the value of the above-mentioned installation gap 13 is generally much smaller than the value of the overcurrent gap in the related art, for example, the value of the installation gap 13 can be in the range of 1 mm to 5 mm.

According to an embodiment of the present application, the guide channel 201 is spirally wound around the support member 23 along the length direction of the support member 23 . In this way, the diversion channel 201 is designed as a spiral downward structure, which can further improve the diversion efficiency, thereby further increasing the amount of cold water released.

As shown in FIG. 6 , according to an embodiment of the present application, the top diaphragm 21 and the bottom diaphragm 22 may both be horizontal and perpendicular to the supporting member 23 .

According to another embodiment of the present application, at least one of the top diaphragm 21 and the bottom diaphragm 22 extends spirally and obliquely downward around the support member 23 . For example, the top diaphragm 21 spirals downward and extends obliquely, an inlet groove 211 is formed between the top and the bottom of the top diaphragm 21, and the bottom end of the top diaphragm 21 is connected to the top of the first deflector 24, thereby facilitating The water flow in the warm water zone 11 is guided into the inlet groove 211 through the top transverse partition 21 , and guided into the accommodating space 20 through the first deflector 24 . For another example, the bottom diaphragm 22 spirally extends downwards, an outlet groove 221 is formed between the upper end and the lower end of the bottom diaphragm 22, and the lower end of the bottom diaphragm 22 is connected to the upper end of the second deflector 25, thereby facilitating the The water flow in the accommodating space 20 is guided into the outlet groove 221 through the bottom transverse partition 22 , and then guided into the cold water zone 12 through the second deflector 25 .

As shown in FIG. 8 , according to yet another embodiment of the present application, at least a part of the bottom diaphragm 22 extends obliquely toward a direction away from the top diaphragm 21 to form a flow guide surface, which is suitable for directing the flow into the accommodating space 20 The liquid inside is guided to the outlet groove 221. In this way, on the one hand, compared with the spiral downward structure, the manufacture of the bottom diaphragm 22 is simpler.

The cold tank 01 of the drinking water device according to the embodiment of the second aspect of the present application will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

As shown in FIG. 2 to FIG. 8 , the cold tank 01 includes the distribution plate 2 according to the first aspect of the present application, and also includes a tank body 1 and a refrigeration component 3 . Wherein, the tank body 1 is formed with a water storage cavity 10 , and the diverter plate 2 is arranged in the tank body 1 to divide the water storage cavity 10 into a warm water zone 11 and a cold water zone 12 . A cooling component 3 is provided on the side wall of the tank body 1 corresponding to the cold water zone 12 .

As shown in Figure 1, in the related art, the distribution plate of the water dispenser is usually a single-layer distribution plate 001, and the evaporator 003 is usually set at the same height as the distribution plate 001 or slightly higher than the distribution plate 001, so the evaporator 003 is directly connected to the warm water area. Adjacent to each other, the cooling capacity generated by the evaporator 003 is easily consumed by the warm water area. On the one hand, it causes a waste of cooling capacity, thereby prolonging the cooling start-up time, increasing cooling energy consumption, and shortening the cooling and heat preservation time; on the other hand On the one hand, it causes the loss of heat in the warm water area, thereby causing the water temperature in the warm water area to drop, which cannot meet the user's requirements.

As shown in Figure 2 and Figure 3, in order to solve the above-mentioned technical problems, according to an embodiment of the present application, the diverter plate 2 includes a top diaphragm 21 and a bottom diaphragm 22, and the top diaphragm 21 and the bottom diaphragm 22 An accommodation space 20 is formed therebetween. The refrigeration component 3 is not set higher than the bottom transverse partition 22 .

In this embodiment, the water storage chamber 10 is divided into three areas, namely the warm water area 11, the accommodation space 20 and the cold water area 12. Since the cooling unit 3 is not set higher than the bottom transverse partition 22, the cooling unit 3 corresponds to The cold water zone 12 , that is, the refrigeration unit 3 mainly cools the cold water zone 12 .

Since the accommodation space 20 plays the role of transition and buffer, the refrigeration component 3 is directly adjacent to the accommodation space 20 instead of the warm water area 11, so that the adverse influence between the refrigeration unit 3 and the warm water area 11 can be reduced In this way, on the one hand, the waste of cooling capacity of the refrigeration unit 3 is reduced, thereby shortening the refrigeration startup time, reducing energy consumption of refrigeration, and prolonging the refrigeration insulation duration; on the other hand, the heat loss in the warm water zone 11 can be avoided, thereby It is ensured that the water temperature in the warm water zone 11 can meet the requirements of the user.

According to an embodiment of the present application, since the bottom diaphragm 22 can be in a horizontal state or an inclined state, the above-mentioned "refrigeration component 3 is not set higher than the bottom diaphragm 22" means that the refrigeration component 3 is not higher than The highest point of the bottom diaphragm 22 is set.

As shown in FIG. 3 , in one embodiment of the present application, if the bottom diaphragm 22 includes a first diaphragm area 222 and a second diaphragm area 223 with a height difference, and the first diaphragm area 222 and the second diaphragm area The transverse partition area 223 is connected by the obliquely arranged flow guide area 224 , so that the top of the cooling component 3 can be flush with the first transverse partition area 222 . In this way, on the one hand, the area directly adjacent to the refrigeration component 3 is still the accommodation space 20 rather than the warm water area 11, thereby reducing the consumption of cooling capacity; on the other hand, at least a part of the accommodation space 20 is set opposite to the refrigeration unit 3 Therefore, the refrigeration unit 3 can also cool the water flow in part of the accommodation space 20, so as to pre-cool the water flow before entering the cold water zone 12, and facilitate the rapid cooling of the water in the cold water zone 12.

As shown in FIG. 3 , according to an embodiment of the present application, the refrigeration component 3 surrounds and is attached to the outer surface of the tank body 1 .

In this way, the micro-channel 31 can increase the cooling capacity utilization rate of the refrigerant, thereby further improving the refrigeration efficiency.

Of course, the above-mentioned embodiments are only some of the many embodiments of the present application, and do not constitute a specific limitation on the refrigeration unit 3 of the present application. The refrigeration unit 3 can also adopt other distribution methods and other refrigeration structures, and this application does not make any Specific restrictions.

In this way, the installation gap 13 can facilitate the installation of the transverse partition.

As shown in FIG. 3 , according to an embodiment of the present application, on the projection plane perpendicular to the length direction of the tank body 1 , the projected edges of all the diaphragms coincide with each other. In this way, the structure of the diversion plate 2 is more elegant, and the installation of the diversion plate 2 in the tank body 1 is also more convenient. For example, there are two diaphragms and they are respectively a top diaphragm 21 and a bottom diaphragm 22, both of which are disc-shaped and have the same diameter.

As shown in FIG. 3 , according to an embodiment of the present application, the gap between the edge of the diaphragm and the inner wall of the tank body 1 is a, where 1mm≤a≤5mm. In this way, the size range of the above-mentioned installation gap 13 can not only meet the installation requirements of the transverse partition, but also ensure the heat insulation effect of the transverse partition. It should be noted that other values can also be selected for the installation gap 13, and the present application does not make special limitations here, wherein the size of the installation gap 13 can be adaptively adjusted according to the specific model of the drinking water equipment.

In order to study the influence of the installation gap 13 on the cooling energy consumption of the drinking water equipment, the application tested respectively when the difference between the diameter of the diaphragm and the inner wall of the tank body 1 is 25 mm and 3 mm (that is, the distance between the edge of the diaphragm and the inner wall of the cold tank 01 is respectively 12.5mm and 1.5mm), and obtain the following results: When the distance between the edge of the diaphragm and the inner wall of the cold tank 01 is 12.5mm, the energy consumption optimization rate of the water dispenser is between 15% and 20%. Between; when the distance between the edge of the diaphragm and the inner wall of the cold tank 01 is 1.5mm, the energy consumption optimization rate of the water dispenser is between 20% and 25%.

In summary, when the diameter of the diaphragm is quite different from the diameter of the inner wall of the tank body 1, the heat insulation effect is poor, so the cooling energy consumption reduction effect is not obvious.

In addition, in order to study the influence of the installation gap 13 on the amount of cold water released by drinking water equipment, the present application tested respectively when the difference between the diameter of the diaphragm and the inner wall of the tank body 1 is 25mm and 3mm (that is, the distance between the edge of the diaphragm and the inner wall of the cold tank 01 12.5mm and 1.5mm respectively), and the following results are obtained: when the distance between the edge of the diaphragm and the inner wall of the cold tank 01 is 12.5mm, the amount of cold water released is between 4900ml and 5000ml; when the diaphragm When the distance between the edge of the plate and the inner wall of the cold tank 01 is 1.5mm, the amount of cold water to be put is between 5300ml and 5400ml.

In summary, when the diameter of the diaphragm is quite different from the diameter of the inner wall of the tank body 1, its diversion effect is relatively poor, so the results of the evaluation test of the whole machine for cooling water will also be affected accordingly.

Among them, in order to realize the function of discharging water from the warm water area to the cold water area, a large overflow gap 002 is left between the single-layer diverter plate 001 and the inner wall of the cold tank, and the water flow in the warm water area enters the cold water area through the overflow gap 002 to realize water discharge .

The applicant found through many experiments and researches that: if the target water temperature in the cold water area is 2.6°C, the water temperature in the warm water area will be as low as 6.1°C due to the poor heat insulation effect of the single-layer splitter plate 001, resulting in no water temperature in the warm water area.
