Water dispenser system with selectable water supply modes and refrigerator with water dispenser system

Abstract

The invention relates to the technical field of refrigerators in electric appliance equipment, in particular to a water dispenser system with selectable water supply modes and a refrigerator with the water dispenser system. The water dispenser system with the selectable water supply modes comprises a water inlet pipe, a drinking water barrel, a drinking water barrel installation base, a three-way electromagnetic valve, a connection pipe, a water storage device and a water outlet valve, wherein one end of the water inlet pipe is connected with a direct drinking water source, the outer end of the water inlet pipe is connected with the three-way electromagnetic valve, the drinking water barrel is arranged on the drinking water barrel installation base, the drinking water barrel installation base is connected with the three-way electromagnetic valve, one end of the connection pipe is connected with the three-way electromagnetic valve, the other end of the connection pipe is connected with the water storage device, and the water outlet valve is arranged on the water storage device. A user using the refrigerator with the water dispenser system can select a barreled water supply mode or a direct drinking water source water supply mode at will according to needs, and the defects that according to a traditional built-in water storage device water supply mode, the capacity of a water storage device is limited, and water needs to be poured into the water storage device frequently when multiple persons use the water dispenser at the same time can be overcome effectively by means of the barreled water supply mode or the direct drinking water source water supply mode.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of refrigerators in electrical equipment, and more specifically, to a water dispenser system with selectable water supply modes and a refrigerator using the system. Background technique [0002] The existing water supply methods for refrigerators with water dispensers mainly include the following two methods: [0003] One is to use the water storage (water tank) placed in the refrigerator to supply water. There is a water storage (water tank) with a certain capacity inside the refrigerator. Before actual use, the user needs to pour pure water into the water storage in the refrigerator. (Water tank), due to the limited capacity of the water storage device placed in the refrigerator, the storage capacity is not large, and when multiple people use it at the same time and drink a lot of water, this type of water storage device cannot meet the demand. Adding water is a cumbersome operation. On the other hand, du...

Problems solved by technology

[0003] One is to use the water storage (water tank) placed in the refrigerator to supply water. There is a water storage (water tank) with a certain capacity inside the refrigerator. Before actual use, the user needs to pour pure water into the water storage in the refrigerator. (Water tank), due to the limited capacity of the water storage device placed in the refrigerator, the storage capacity is not large, and when multiple people use it at the same time and drink a lot of water, this type of water storage device cannot meet the demand. Adding water is a cumbersome operation. On the other hand, due to frequent water addition, it takes a certain amount of time to cool the water in the water storage (water tank), which cannot meet the needs of users to drink ice water in time.

[0004] Another kind is to be provided with water inlet directly on the outside of the refrigerator, and the water inlet is directly connected to the external water source. Although the defect of the limited capacity of the built-in water tank has been solved, since the water of the refrigerator water dispenser is for the human body to drink directly, the external water source needs to be available. For the direct drinking water that the human body can drink directly, since the tap water in most countries including China is not direct drinking water at present, for users who do not have direct drinking water sources, this water inlet method cannot meet the needs, and then use this The refrigerator with water dispenser in the water system can't meet the needs

[0005] There are also some refrigerators with water dispensers that only have bottled water supply. As more and more families in modern society have direct drinking water sources, the existing technology only has bottled water supply and can no longer meet user needs.
