[0021] The following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making any creative efforts shall fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0022] Reference Manual Figure 1 To the attached Figure 4 A mechanical soap dispenser includes a soap dispenser assembly 1, a soap dispenser body 2, a soap bottle 3, a soap dispenser core 4 and an aerator assembly 5. A mounting base 6 is connected between the soap dispenser assembly 1 and the soap dispenser body 2. The soap dispenser assembly 1 is sleeved on the outer periphery of the mounting base 6. When the pressing area a is pressed, the soap dispenser assembly 1 can move up and down along the mounting base 6. The mounting base 6 can be connected to the external thread of the soap dispenser body 2 by screw connection and fixed by a mounting nut b. The mounting base 6 includes at least a first mounting cavity 51 and a second The mounting cavity 52 is used to place the soap dispenser core 4 and the aerator assembly 5 respectively; the soap liquid bottle 3 is mounted on the other opposite end of the soap dispenser body 2, that is, the mounting seat 6 and the soap liquid bottle 3 are mounted on the opposite ends of the soap dispenser body 2 respectively; the soap dispenser body 2 has a soap adding pipe 21, one end of the soap dispenser core 4 and the aerator assembly 5 are connected to the soap dispenser head group 1, and the other end is connected to the liquid channel 4a and the gas channel 51 respectively, and the liquid channel 4a and the gas channel 51 respectively pass through the soap adding pipe 21 and extend into the soap liquid bottle 3.

[0023] Specifically, a soap outlet pipe 11 is provided in the soap dispenser group 1, and the soap outlet pipe 11 is connected to one end of the soap dispenser core 4. The soap outlet pipe is used to discharge liquid so that the soap liquid is discharged from the soap bottle for use by the user. The upper end of the soap dispenser group 1 is a pressing area a for the user to press to discharge soap, wherein the air pump group 5 is located in the pressing area a and is connected to the soap dispenser group 1; the soap dispenser core 4 is installed in the first installation cavity 51 and its bottom end is connected to the above-mentioned liquid channel 4a. The soap dispenser core 4 includes a shell 41, which is placed The core shaft 42 and spring 43 in the housing 41 are provided with a protruding wall 4b on the outer periphery of the housing 41. The protruding wall 4b abuts against the upper end of the mounting seat 6. A liquid inlet duckbill valve 41a is provided in the housing 41. A liquid outlet duckbill valve 44 is provided at one end of the core shaft 42 placed in the housing 41, so that the soap liquid in the soap bottle can quickly enter the liquid channel 4a under a slight pressure. The spring 43 is located between the liquid inlet duckbill valve 41a and the liquid outlet duckbill valve 44, and abuts against the core shaft 42 and the housing 41 respectively. Figure 3 When soap liquid needs to be added, the soap head assembly 1, the soap dispenser core 4 and the liquid channel 4a are removed together, and the soap liquid is added from the soap adding pipe 21 in the soap dispenser body. The soap liquid can be added directly on the table, avoiding the inconvenience of adding soap liquid under the table.

[0024] The pumping assembly 5 is mounted within the second mounting cavity 52. ​​A push rod at one end is connected to the soap dispenser assembly, while the other end is connected to the gas channel 51. A sound module 51a is mounted where the gas channel 51 extends into the soap bottle 3. For example, the sound module utilizes the principle of a whistle. Preferably, the sound module 51a is located at the bottom of the gas channel 51 and has an air outlet g. When the liquid level falls below the air outlet g, the sound module emits a sound to remind the user to add or replace the soap. Preferably, the sound module 51a or the air outlet g does not contact the bottom of the soap bottle 3. This allows the user to continue using the soap for a period of time after the sound reminder, giving the user a buffer time to purchase soap in time. Of course, the pumping assembly, gas channel, and sound module can also be removed and placed back into the soap dispenser, making it easier to clean the various components of the soap dispenser. When the pressing area a of the soap dispenser group is pressed downward, the core shaft 42 and the aerating component 5 are driven to move downward respectively, and the core shaft 42 compresses the spring 43. The liquid in the soap bottle 3 can flow into the core shaft 42 along the liquid channel 4a under a micro-pressure state, and finally flow out from the soap outlet pipe 11 for use by the user; when these components move to the designed lower limit position, the aerating component 5 and the core shaft 42 move upward and reset under the action of elastic force respectively; during the reciprocating movement of the core shaft, the gas or liquid in the soap dispenser core is discharged through the soap outlet pipe, and then the liquid in the liquid channel is sucked into the soap dispenser core through the vacuum effect after the air is discharged from the soap dispenser core, so that the liquid can be discharged through the soap outlet pipe during the next suction to complete the soap dispensing function. At the same time, if the liquid in the soap bottle 3 exceeds the air outlet g of the sound module, the liquid blocks the rapid discharge of air in the gas channel 51, and no sound can be generated when the air and the liquid in the channel mix and are discharged from the air outlet g; when the liquid in the soap bottle 3 is lower than the air outlet g of the sound module, that is, it is in a soap-deficient state, the aeration component 5 can squeeze the gas into the sound module 51a through the gas channel 51. At this time, the liquid cannot block the rapid discharge of air, and the required sound can be obtained by utilizing the rapid passage of air through a narrow space. In this way, a sound reminder can be issued in time when the mechanical soap dispenser is short of soap, which is very convenient.

[0025] Furthermore, in order to prevent the soap from overflowing when the user adds soap, an anti-overflow device can be provided on the upper end of the body of the soap bottle 3. The anti-overflow device includes a floating one-way valve 31, a floating one-way valve joint 32 and a hollow fixing piece 33. The floating one-way valve 31 is a one-way valve made of a material with a floating effect. The floating one-way valve joint 32 is connected and fixed to the body of the soap bottle 3. The fixing piece 33 is provided at the bottom end of the floating one-way valve joint 32. The floating one-way valve 31 is located in the floating one-way valve joint 32. If the anti-overflow device does not contact the liquid in the soap bottle (refer to the attached Figure 5A ), the floating one-way valve 31 is located at the upper end of the fixing plate 33 and is directly contacted therewith, wherein the floating one-way valve joint 32 has a slope k that gradually decreases along the bottle body direction of the soap liquid bottle 3, and the floating one-way valve 31 also has a mating surface h that cooperates with the slope k. The outer periphery of the floating one-way valve 31 is provided with a sealing ring p, which is located between the floating one-way valve joint and the slope of the floating one-way valve. When the anti-overflow device does not contact the liquid in the soap bottle 3, the floating one-way valve 31 falls on the upper end of the fixing plate 33 and contacts it. At this time, the floating one-way valve 31 and the floating one-way valve joint 32 are not sealed, and there is a gap s between the two. At this time, if the soap dispenser assembly and the soap dispenser core are removed, the soap flows into the soap bottle 3 through the soap adding pipe, and the air in the soap bottle 3 is squeezed out from the gap s in the anti-overflow device, thereby forming a certain suction force to prevent the soap from overflowing due to the liquid inlet being blocked due to too fast soap addition. As the soap in the soap bottle becomes more and more, until the soap contacts the floating one-way valve 31 of the anti-overflow device (see attached Figure 5B ), under the action of the buoyancy of the liquid, the outer sealing ring p of the buoyancy check valve cooperates with the inclined surface k of the buoyancy check valve joint to seal the liquid. At the same time, the soap bottle is filled with soap, and the removed soap dispenser head assembly and soap dispenser core are placed back on the soap dispenser body. As the soap in the soap bottle 3 is used, when the soap does not contact the anti-overflow device, the buoyancy check valve 31 automatically drops back to the fixed plate 33 under its own weight and gravity, preparing for the next addition of soap. The mechanical soap dispenser of the present invention has a simple and reliable structure, a compact appearance, and occupies a small area. It can be added directly on a table, is simple and convenient to operate, and can greatly improve the user experience. The soap dispenser can also emit a sound to remind the user to add or purchase soap in a timely manner, preventing the inconvenience caused to the user when the soap dispenser is out of soap. No electronic module is required to implement the sound reminder function, which is low-cost. Furthermore, the soap dispenser of the present invention can also prevent soap from overflowing when the user adds soap, which is very convenient.
