Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2021203313A1] A water softening device includes a bottom wall, a top wall, a circumferential wall, an internal pipe and a water softening medium. The top wall includes a top toroid sieve for water to flow out. The circumferential wall includes a bottom inlet sieve for water to flow in. The internal pipe includes an internal channel and a throttling hole. The internal channel includes a first channel located below the throttling hole and a second channel located above the throttling hole. The first channel and the second channel are in fluid communication with each other via the throttling hole. The internal pipe includes at least one communicating slot to communicate the first channel and the annular space. The internal channel serves as a counter pressure regulator so that the water flow distribution can be evened in the water softening medium.
