Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of water dispenser equipment, and in particular to a button device with a water outlet selection function. Background Art

[0002] A water dispenser is a device that heats or cools water for people to drink. Existing water dispensers usually use faucets as water outlets to provide drinking water. There are three main types of faucets: push-type, electric-controlled and cup-push types. Existing push-type faucets generally have one button corresponding to one water outlet faucet, and the two correspond one to one. Currently, there is basically no design that one button can control multiple faucets. Summary of the invention

[0003] The present invention aims to overcome the above defects in the prior art and provides a button device with a water outlet selection function, which can control the water outlet of different faucets by pressing a button through a sliding dial block.

[0004] To achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the present invention provides a button device with a water outlet selection function, comprising a button and a connector that is press-fitted with the button;

[0005] The key is a thin shell structure with an opening facing downwards, and a shift block is slidably arranged on the upper end surface of the key, and the shift block has a push portion extending into the key;

[0006] At least two push rods are arranged on the connecting member and can slide up and down along the connecting member, the upper end of the push rod is located in the button, and the lower end of the push rod is connected to the pressure handle of the faucet;

[0007] When the push block slides along the upper end surface of the button, its pushing portion can be aligned with the upper end of any push rod, and when the button is pressed or released, the push rod can be driven by the pushing portion of the push block to control the faucet to open or close.

[0008] It is further configured as follows: the button is provided with first magnets whose number is the same as the number of the push rods and which are arranged corresponding to the push rods, and the shift block is provided with a second magnet, and the push portion of the shift block and the upper end of the push rod can be aligned and locked through the attraction of the first magnet and the second magnet.

[0009] It is further configured as follows: a guide column is arranged on the lower end surface of the button, a guide hole is arranged on the connecting piece for the guide column to be embedded and guide the guide column to slide in a directional manner, a return spring is sleeved on the guide column, and both ends of the return spring are respectively in contact between the button and the connecting piece.

[0010] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has a simple structure and is easy to operate. The position of the dial block is adjusted by sliding the dial block so that the push portion of the dial block is aligned with the push rod connected to the corresponding faucet, so that the push rod can be linked to move to open the faucet by pressing the button, thereby achieving the purpose of controlling multiple faucets with one button; at the same time, a first magnet corresponding to the position of the push rod is provided on the button, and a second magnet is provided on the dial block. Through the attraction of the first magnet and the second magnet, the positioning and locking of the dial block can be facilitated, the push portion can be easily aligned, and the stability and reliability of the button control can be improved. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0011] Figure 1 It is a schematic cross-sectional structure diagram of a key device with a water outlet selection function according to the present invention.

[0012] The following reference numerals are marked on the drawings in conjunction with the drawings:

[0013] 1. Button; 11. Guide column; 2. Connector; 21. Guide hole; 3. Push block; 31. Push part; 4. Push rod; 5. Return spring; 6. Faucet; 61. Press handle; 7. First magnet; 8. Second magnet. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0014] A specific implementation of the present invention is described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, but it should be understood that the protection scope of the present invention is not limited by the specific implementation.

[0015] The present invention provides a key device with a water outlet selection function. Figure 1 As shown, it includes a button 1, a connecting member 2, a dial block 3, a push rod 4 and a faucet 6; the connecting member 2 is a separate bracket or a part of the water dispenser housing, and forms a press fit with the button 1; the button 1 is a thin shell structure with an opening facing downward, and a guide column 11 is provided at the lower end of the button 1. Correspondingly, a guide hole 21 is provided on the connecting member 2 for the guide column 11 to be embedded and guide the guide column 11 to slide in a directional manner, and a return spring 5 is sleeved on the guide column 11, and the two ends of the return spring 5 are respectively abutted and connected between the button 1 and the connecting member 2, and the button 1 can be pressed by sliding along the guide hole 21 through the guide column 11; the faucet 6 is located below the connecting member 2, the push rod 4 is located between the button 1 and the faucet 6, and the lower end of the push rod 4 is connected to the pressing handle 61 of the faucet 6. When the button 1 is pressed downward, the upper end of the push rod 4 can be driven by the button 1 to move downward to press the pressing handle 61 of the faucet 6, so that the faucet 6 is turned on to discharge water.

[0016] like Figure 1As shown, a shift block 3 is slidably provided on the upper end surface of the button 1, and the shift block 3 has a push portion 31 extending into the button 1; the faucet 6 includes at least two push rods 4 that are connected and controlled one-to-one with the faucet 6, and the upper end of the push rod 4 passes through the connecting member 2 and extends into the button 1, and the push rod 4 can slide up and down along the connecting member 2, and the connecting member 2 plays a guiding role for the push rod 4; the shift block 3 can be aligned with the upper end of any push rod 4 during the sliding process along the upper end surface of the button 1, so that by pressing or releasing the button 1, the push rod 4 can be driven by the push portion 31 of the shift block 3 to control the opening or closing of the faucet 6.

[0017] In the above scheme, preferably, the button 1 is provided with first magnets 7, the number of which is the same as that of the push rods 4 and which correspond to the push rods 4 one by one, and the dial block 3 is provided with second magnets 8 that are attracted to the first magnets 7. The dial block 3 slides on the button 1, and the first magnet 7 and the second magnet 8 are attracted to each other, so that the positioning and locking of the dial block 3 can be achieved, so that the pushing portion 31 is aligned with the push rod 4 of the corresponding faucet 6, thereby achieving the purpose of conveniently controlling the opening of the water hole, and greatly improving the stability and reliability of the control of the button 1.

[0018] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has a simple structure and is easy to operate. The position of the dial block is adjusted by sliding the dial block so that the push portion of the dial block is aligned with the push rod connected to the corresponding faucet, so that the push rod can be linked to move to open the faucet by pressing the button, thereby achieving the purpose of controlling multiple faucets with one button; at the same time, a first magnet corresponding to the position of the push rod is provided on the button, and a second magnet is provided on the dial block. Through the attraction of the first magnet and the second magnet, the positioning and locking of the dial block can be facilitated, the push portion can be easily aligned, and the stability and reliability of the button control can be improved.

[0019] The above disclosure is only an embodiment of the present invention, but the present invention is not limited thereto, and any changes that can be conceived by those skilled in the art should fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
