Description
TECHNICAL FIELD

The present disclosure relates to the technical field of microbubbles, in particular, to a microbubble generation container and a water discharging device.


BACKGROUND

With the improvement of people's living standards, people put forward higher and higher requirements for domestic water, such as bath water and cleaning water for fruits, vegetables and tableware. It is not only required that domestic water should be pollution-free, but also required that the domestic water can have a bactericidal activity, as well as good water quality. For this reason, people have developed microbubble generation containers, which can make water mixed with air and other gases to form microbubble water. When water contains microbubbles, the water can achieve a bactericidal effect, and the water use experience of a user can be improved.


In relevant technologies, when air in the microbubble generation container is used up, that is, after the container is filled with water, it is necessary to press a press end of a drain valve to open a drain port at a bottom of the container to discharge the water in the container. At the same time, a press end of a press valve is connected to a sealing member through a linkage rod, so that when the drain valve is pressed, the linkage sealing member moves far away from an air inlet, so that external gas can enter the container through the air inlet. However, due to its complex structure, the container cannot be repeatedly used before the press end of the drain valve is pressed, resulting in limitations to an application scenario.

The present disclosure aims to provide a microbubble generation container with a simplified structure, and a water discharging device.


In order to solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the present disclosure adopts the following technical solution:

According to some embodiments of the present disclosure, the first passages are slantways arranged.


According to another aspect of the present disclosure, a water discharging device includes the microbubble generation container according to any one of the above embodiments, and further includes a dissolved air release member and a water utilization terminal; the dissolved air release member is used for generating microbubble water from water flowing out of the water outlet, so that the water utilization terminal uses the microbubble water; and a water intake of the water inlet is greater than a water discharge of the water utilization terminal.


According to the above technical solutions, the present disclosure has the following advantages and beneficial effects:


In the microbubble generation container of the embodiments of the present disclosure, when water enters the first chamber from the water inlet, an impact force of the water on the partition plate can drive the excitation member to overcome an elastic force of the elastic member to move, so that the sealing portion closes the connecting port.

In addition, it should be noted that this specification describes many features. Although some features can be combined to show a possible system design, these features can also be used for other unspecified combinations.

If the descriptions of the positions of these elements change, the indications of these directions change accordingly.


The preferred embodiments of the present disclosure are further described in detail below in combination with the drawings of this specification.


Referring to FIG. 1 to FIG. 5, a microbubble generation container provided in an embodiment of the present disclosure includes a barrel main body 1, an excitation member 2, and an elastic member 3.


The barrel main body 1 extends vertically and is internally hollow, an inner space of which provides a mounting space for the excitation member 2 and the elastic member 3, and serves as a space for containing water and/or air.


A top of the barrel main body 1 is provided with a water inlet 121 which is communicated to an external water source, so that water can enter the inner space of the barrel main body 1 from the water inlet 121. A bottom of the barrel main body 1 is provided with a water outlet 111 and a connecting port 112, and the water outlet 111 is communicated to a water utilization terminal, so as to supply water to the water utilization terminal. The connecting port 112 connects the inner space of the barrel main body 1 to the outside, so that the water in the barrel main body 1 can be discharged to the outside, or external air can enter the inner space of the barrel main body 1 through the connecting port 112.


In some embodiments, the barrel main body 1 includes a barrel body 11 and a barrel cover 12. The barrel body 11 extends vertically and is internally hollow. The water outlet 111 and the connecting port 112 are arranged at a bottom of the barrel body 11, and a top of the barrel body 11 is provided with an opening. The barrel cover 12 is covered to the top of the barrel body 11 and closes the opening in the top of the barrel body 11. The water inlet 121 is arranged on the barrel cover 12. The barrel body 11 and the barrel cover 12 are detachably connected, so that the mounting of the microbubble generation container is completed by covering the barrel cover 12 to the top of the barrel body 11 after the excitation member 2 and the elastic member 3 in the barrel body 11.


Referring to FIG. 2 and FIG. 7, and in combination with FIG. 2 and FIG. 3, in some embodiments, a connection ring 113 is annularly arranged on an outer circumferential wall of the barrel body 11, and an inner diameter of the barrel cover 12 is greater than an outer diameter of the barrel body 11. When the barrel cover 12 is covered to the barrel body 11, the barrel cover can be abutted against the connection ring 113 to improve the sealing performance of the barrel main body 1.


In some embodiments, the outer circumferential wall of the barrel body 11 is sleeved with a first sealing ring 41, and the first sealing ring 41 is located between the outer circumferential wall of the barrel body 11 and an inner circumferential wall of the barrel cover 12 to further improve the sealing performance of the barrel main body 1.


Referring mainly to FIG. 1, in some embodiments, the outer circumferential wall of the connection ring 113 of the cylinder body 11 is annularly provided with a plurality of first lug portions 114, and the outer circumferential wall of the barrel cover 12 is provided with a plurality of second lug portions 122. The first lug portions 114 and the second lug portions 122 are based on one-to-one correspondence, and the barrel cover 12 and the barrel body 11 are detachably connected through a bolt. In other embodiments, the barrel cover 12 and the cylinder body 11 can also be connected by welding.


Referring to FIG. 6 and in combination with FIG. 3 and FIG. 4, in some embodiments, the inner circumferential wall of the barrel body 11 is provided with a plurality of first reinforcing ribs 115 which are arranged in a grid shape to improve the structural strength of the barrel body 11.


Referring to FIG. 7 and in combination with FIG. 3 and FIG. 4, in some embodiments, the barrel main body 1 also includes a connecting pipe section 13 and a water outlet pipe section 14. The connecting pipe section 13 extends vertically, and the connecting pipe section 13 is roughly coaxial with the barrel body 11. An upper end of the connecting pipe section 13 is communicated to the inner space of the barrel main body 1. An end opening of the upper end of the connecting pipe section is used as the connecting port 112, and a lower end of the connecting pipe section 13 is communicated to the outside of the barrel main body 1. The water outlet pipe section 14 extends vertically, and an upper end of the water outlet pipe section 14 is communicated to the inner space of the barrel main body 1. An end opening of the upper end of the water outlet pipe section is used as a water outlet 111, and a lower end of the water outlet pipe section 14 is communicated to the outside of the barrel main body 1 to the water utilization terminal.


In some embodiments, the upper end of the connecting pipe section 13 extends into the barrel body 11, which makes a height difference between the connecting port 112 and the water outlet 111. Therefore, when a small amount of water enters the barrel body 11, the water will only flow out from the water outlet 111, rather than the connecting port 112.


In some embodiments, the barrel main body 1 also includes a supporting portion 15. The supporting portion 15 is connected to the inside of the connecting pipe section 13 and away from the water outlet 111. A guide hole 151 is arranged on the supporting portion 15, and the supporting portion 15 is also provided with a through hole 152. The connecting port 112 connects the inner space of the barrel main body 1 to the outside through the through hole 152, so that the water in the barrel main body 1 can be discharged to the outside from the connecting port 112 and the through hole 152, or external air can enter the inner space of the barrel main body 1 through the through hole 152 and the connecting port 112. A plurality of through holes 152 can be arranged around the guide hole 151. By the arrangement of the plurality of through holes 152, the water discharge and the air intake can be increased.


Referring mainly to FIG. 3 and FIG. 4, the excitation member 2 can be arranged in the barrel body 11 in a manner of moving up and down. The excitation member 2 includes a partition plate 21 and a sealing portion 22. The partition plate 21 is horizontally arranged. The partition plate 21 divides the inner space of the barrel body 11 into a first chamber 16 located above the partition plate 21 and a second chamber 17 located below the partition plate 21. The water inlet 121 is communicated to the first chamber 16, and the water outlet 111 and the connecting port 112 are communicated to the second chamber 17.


Referring to FIG. 8, in some embodiments, a top surface of the partition plate 21 is provided with a second reinforcing rib 211. The second reinforcing rib 211 includes an annular reinforcing ring and a plurality of reinforcing bars annularly connected to the reinforcing ring radially. The structural strength of the partition plate 21 is improved through the second reinforcing rib 211.


The partition plate 21 is provided with a water passage 212 for connecting the first chamber 16 with the second chamber 17. The water passage 212 enables the water flowing by to form water droplets and be ejected, and the formed water droplets can enlarge a contact area between the water and the air, thereby improving the air dissolution efficiency. There may be a plurality of water passages 212 to improve the efficiency of producing water droplets.


Referring to FIG. 8 to FIG. 10, in some embodiments, there are a plurality of connecting members 23 on the partition plate 21. The size of each connecting member 23 in a thickness direction of the partition plate 21 is greater than that of the partition plate 21, that is, the connecting member 23 protrudes from a top surface of the partition plate 21 and a bottom surface of the partition plate 21. The water passage 212 is arranged in the connecting member 23, so that the water passage 212 can be designed to be longer to improve the effect of forming water droplets.


Referring mainly to FIG. 5, in some embodiments, each water passage 212 includes a first passage 2121, a second passage 2122, and a third passage 2123 which are communicated in turn. A water inlet end of the first passage 2121 is communicated with the first chamber 16, and a water outlet end of the first passage 2121 is communicated with a water inlet end of the second passage 2122. There are a plurality of first passages 2121 arranged around the second passage 2122. The water outlet end of the second passage 2122 is communicated with a water inlet end of the third passage 2123, and a flowing cross-sectional area from the water inlet end of the second passage 2122 to the water outlet end gradually decreases. A water outlet end of the third passage 2123 is communicated with the second chamber 17, and a flowing cross-sectional area from the water inlet end of the third passage 2123 to the water outlet end gradually increases.


When the water enters the first passage 2121, since the first passage 2121 is small, the flow velocity of the water flow is accelerated, which makes the pressure of air around it low, and the surrounding air will flow around the water flow. The water has surface tension, so that when air enters a water surface, the water surface becomes concave. Because of the formation of the concave shape, the air then enters the water flow to form bubbles.


When the water in the plurality of first passages 2121 flows into the second passage 2122, multiple water flows generate impact and generate vibrations, and then water droplets are generated in the water flow in the second passage 2122. In addition, the flowing cross-sectional area from the water inlet end to the water outlet end of the second passage 2122 gradually decreases, which also accelerates the flowing of the water. In some embodiments, the second passage 2122 is hemispherical, which is conducive to generating turbulence by the multiple water flows in the hemispherical second passage 2122 to improve the vibration effect.


When the water in the second passage 2122 flows into the third passage 2123, the flowing cross-sectional area from the water inlet end to the water outlet end of the third passage 2123 gradually increases. The pressure can be gradually relieved when the water flows through the third passage 2123, so that innumerable water droplets in the water flow are formed and diffused, and are dispersed into the second chamber 17 to enlarge the contact area with the air in the second chamber 17 and improve the air dissolution efficiency.


In some embodiments, the first passage 2121 is arranged slantways to further accelerate the flowing of the water in the first passage 2121, which is convenient for more air to enter the water flow to generate bubbles, thus improving the vibration effect of the water flow in the second passage 2122 and increasing the number of water droplets.


Refer to FIG. 3 and FIG. 4, in some embodiments, the uppermost first reinforcing rib 115 located on the inner circumferential wall of the barrel body 11 acts as a limiting portion. When the partition plate 21 moves up and down, the partition plate 21 is respectively abutted against the barrel cover 12 and the limiting portion, that is, the limiting portion limits the partition plate 21 to move between an inner end face of the barrel main body 1 and the limiting portion, thus preventing the partition plate 21 from sinking and ensuring the volume of the second chamber 17.


In some embodiments, the outer circumferential wall of the partition plate 21 is provided with a second sealing ring 42, and the second sealing ring 42 is located between the outer circumferential wall of the partition plate 21 and the inner circumferential wall of the barrel body 11 to ensure the sealing performance of the first chamber 16 and the second chamber 17.


The sealing portion 22 opens and closes the connecting port 112 along with the motion of the excitation member 2. When the sealing portion 22 moves up, the connecting port 112 is opened, so that the water in the barrel main body 1 can be discharged to the outside, or external air can enter the inner space of the barrel main body 1 through the connecting port 112. When the sealing portion 22 moves down, the connecting port 112 is closed, and the water in the barrel main body 1 only flows from the water outlet 111 to the water utilization terminal.


In some embodiments, the excitation member 2 also includes a guide rod 24. The guide rod 24 extends vertically and can be move up and down through the guide hole 151 arranged on the supporting portion 15. The guide rod 24 and the guide hole 151 cooperate to guide the motion of the excitation member 2.


In some embodiments, the sealing portion 22 is annular, and is annularly connected to the guide rod 24. The sealing portion 22 can move up out of the connecting pipe section 13 to open the connecting port 112. Or, the sealing portion 22 can move down into the connecting pipe section 13 to close the connecting port 112, and can also close a clearance between the guide rod 24 and the guide hole 151 when closing the connecting port 112.


In some embodiments, a third sealing ring 43 is annularly arranged on an outer circumferential wall of the sealing portion 22. When the sealing portion 22 can move down into the connecting pipe section 13 to close the connecting portion 112, the third sealing ring 43 is located between the outer circumferential wall of the sealing portion 22 and the inner circumferential wall of the connecting pipe section 13 to improve the sealing performance.


Refer to FIG. 2 to FIG. 4, the elastic member 3 is arranged in the barrel body 11. The elastic member 3 acts on the excitation member 2 and drives the excitation member 2 to move up to open the connecting port 112.


In some embodiments, the elastic member 3 is a spring which sleeves the guide rod 24 to limit and guide the deformation of the spring with the guide rod 24. The elastic member 3 is positioned between the support portion 15 and the sealing portion 22 to drive the sealing portion 22 to move up to open the connecting port 112.


As shown in FIG. 2, when water enters the first chamber 16 from the water inlet 121, an impact force of the water on the partition plate 21 can drive the excitation member 2 to overcome the elastic force of the elastic member 3 to move down, so that the sealing portion 22 closes the connecting port 112. The water continues to pass through the water passage 212 on the partition plate 21 to form numerous water droplets and enter the second chamber 17. After the water and the air are mixed, the mixture is supplied to the water utilization terminal through the water outlet 111.


Referring to FIG. 3, when the water inlet 121 stops supplying water, the elastic force of the elastic member 3 causes the excitation member 2 to automatically move up to open the connecting port 112. Thus, the water in the barrel main body 1 can flow out through the connecting port 112, and the external air can also enter the barrel main body 1 through the connecting port 112 to fully fill the barrel main body 1 again, so that there is enough air dissolved in the water during use. According to the container, the impact force of the water flow and the elastic force of the elastic member 3 are ingeniously used, thus automatically opening and closing the connecting port 112. The structure of the microbubble generation container is simplified, and the microbubble generation container can adapt to more application scenarios.


It is worth mentioning that in the process that the impact force of the water on the partition plate 21 drives the excitation member 2 to move down against the elastic force of the elastic member 3, that is, when the connecting port 112 is not closed, although a small amount of water flows into the second chamber 17 from the water passage 212, the water will flow to the water utilization terminal only from the water outlet 111 on the basis of the design of a height difference between the connecting port 112 and the water outlet 111, thus avoiding a waste of the water flowing out of the connecting port 112.


In some embodiments, a flow rate of the water inlet 121 is greater than a total flow rate of the plurality of water passages 212, which makes a water level in the first chamber 16 continuously rise to compress the air in the first chamber 16. The increase of the pressure of the first chamber 16 and the impact force of the water drive the excitation member 2 to move down to close the connecting port 112.


Referring to FIG. 11 and FIG. 12 and in combination with FIG. 1, the present disclosure further provides a water discharging device based on the microbubble generation container. The water discharging device includes the microbubble generation container in any of the above embodiments, and further includes a dissolved air release member 5 and a water utilization terminal.


The dissolved air release member 5 releases air dissolved in water in the container to form microbubble water with extremely small bubbles for delivery at the water utilization terminal, which greatly improves the cleaning ability.


The water outlet 111 of the microbubble generation container is used for supplying water to the water utilization terminal, and the water inflow of the water inlet 121 is greater than the water outflow of the water utilization terminal, which makes a water level in the second chamber 17 continuously rise to compress the air in the second chamber 17, and the pressure of the second chamber 17 increases to form a high-pressure chamber. The air dissolution efficiency of the air in a high-pressure state is higher than that in a low-pressure state. At this time, more air can be dissolved in the water of the second chamber 17 and flows to the water utilization terminal from the water outlet 111.


It should be noted that the dissolved air release member 5 can be arranged in the barrel main body 1 of the microbubble generation container and located at the water outlet 111. The dissolved air release member 5 can also be arranged in a connection pipeline between the microbubble generation container and the water utilization terminal. The dissolved air release member 5 can also be arranged in the water utilization terminal, which is not limited here.


In some embodiments, the dissolved air release member 5 is internally provided with a plurality of flow guide passages 51. Each flow guide passage 51 includes a pressurization section 511, a throat section 512, and a pressure relief section 513 which are communicated in turn. A flowing cross-sectional area from a water inlet end to a water outlet end of the pressurization section 511 gradually decreases. A flowing cross-sectional area from a water inlet end to a water outlet end of the throat section 512 is roughly equal. A flowing cross-sectional area from a water inlet end to a water outlet end of the pressure relief section 513 gradually increases.


Water mixed with air is delivered to the dissolved air release member 5, so that the water is pressurized through the pressurization section 511, and the pressure reaches the maximum at the throat section 512. The water then flows into the pressure relief section 513. At this time, the water pressure decreases, and the air dissolved in the water is released, thus forming microbubble water with extremely small bubbles used in the water utilization terminal to improve the cleaning ability.


It should be noted that since the flowing cross-sectional area of the flow guide passage 51 in the dissolved air release member 5 is smaller than that of the water inlet 121, the water inflow of the water inlet 121 is greater than the water outflow of the water outlet 111. When the water level in the barrel main body 1 rises to compress the air in the barrel main body 1, high pressures are generated in the first chamber 16 and the second chamber 17. The high pressure generated in the first chamber 16 can cooperate with the impact force of the water entering the first chamber 16 from the water inlet 121 to jointly promote the excitation member 2 to move. The high pressure generated in the second chamber 17 can improve the air dissolution efficiency. In some other embodiments, the flowing cross-sectional area of the water outlet 111 can also be smaller than that of the water inlet 121, so that the water inflow of the water inlet 121 is greater than the water outflow of the water outlet 111, and high pressures are generated in the first chamber 16 and the second chamber 17.


Based on the design that simplifies the structure of the microbubble generation container, the microbubble generation container can be used in more scenarios. For example, the water utilization terminal can be a washbasin faucet, a kitchen faucet, a shower head, a top sprayer, etc., and the microbubble water can flow out of the water utilization terminal for use through the microbubble generation container and the dissolved air release member 5.


Based on the above technical solutions, the embodiments of the present disclosure at least have the following advantages and beneficial effects.


In the microbubble generation container of the embodiments of the present disclosure, when water enters the first chamber 16 from the water inlet 121, an impact force of the water on the partition plate 21 is greater than the elastic force of the elastic member 3 and can drive the excitation member 2 to overcome an elastic force of the elastic member 3 to move, so that the sealing portion 22 closes the connecting port 112. When the water passes through the water passage 212, water droplets are formed and enter the second chamber 17. The formation of the water droplets can enlarge the contact area between the water and air in the second chamber 17, thereby improving the air dissolution efficiency. After the water is mixed with the air, the mixture flows out from the water outlet 111 to the water utilization terminal for use.


When water supplying is stopped at the water inlet 121, the elastic member 3 acts on the excitation member 2, so that the excitation member 2 automatically reversely moves to open the connecting port 112, and the water in the barrel main body 1 can outwards flow through the connecting port 112. Meanwhile, external air can also enter the barrel main body 1 through the connecting port 112 to fully fill the barrel main body 1 again, so that there is enough air dissolved in the water during next use. According to the container, the impact force of the water flow and the elastic force of the elastic member 3 are ingeniously used, thus automatically opening and closing the connecting port 112. The structure of the microbubble generation container is simplified, and the microbubble generation container can adapt to more application scenarios.
