Abstract

The embodiment of the invention provides a smart water dispenser and a control method thereof. By arranging a sliding rail on the machine body, facing a container tray, of the water dispenser, a distance measuring device is slidably arranged on the sliding rail. Through the distance measuring device, detection of the height of a water container and the water level in the water container can be completed, so that the cost is reduced. A controller of the water dispenser automatically controls a water outlet switch to be turned off according to the height, detected by the distance measuring device, of the water container and the water level in the water container. The situation that water discharging is automatically stopped when a water cup is full of water is realized, a user has no need toobserve the water receiving situation at all times during water receiving, manpower is saved, the situation that the water cup is overflowed with water cannot occur, and the occurrence of problems such as scalding and waste of water resources is avoided.

Description

technical field [0001] Embodiments of the present invention relate to the technical field of intelligent water dispensers, and in particular to an intelligent water dispenser and a control method thereof. Background technique [0002] Water dispenser is an indispensable household appliance in people's life. Traditional water dispenser needs to manually control the opening and closing of the water outlet. When receiving water, it is necessary to observe the water receiving situation at all times. It is easy to overflow with water, causing burns, waste of water resources and other problems. Contents of the invention [0003] In order to solve the above technical problems or at least partly solve the above technical problems, an embodiment of the present invention provides an intelligent water dispenser and a control method thereof. [0004] In view of this, in the first aspect, an embodiment of the present invention provides a smart water dispenser, including a water outlet...
