[0021] The preferred embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, wherein the accompanying drawings constitute a part of this application and are used together with the embodiments of the present invention to illustrate the principles of the present invention, but are not used to limit the scope of the present invention.

[0022] Please refer to Figures 1 to 6 , an embodiment of the present invention provides an outdoor public drinking fountain, comprising: a drinking fountain body 1, a filter assembly, a power supply 14, a first push switch 4, a second push switch 5 and a solenoid valve 10;

[0023] The drinking station body 1 is provided with a drinking nozzle faucet 3 and a drinking pool 2; one end of the drinking nozzle faucet 3 is connected to the tap water pipeline 16 through the filter assembly, and is used to spray the filtered drinking water to the top of the drinking pool 2; the drinking pool 2 is used to collect the unfinished drinking water; the bottom of the drinking pool 2 is provided with a first drain port 6, which is used to communicate with the sewage pipeline 15; the drinking pool 2 collects the unfinished drinking water and discharges it into the sewage pipeline 15 through the first drain port 6; the solenoid valve 10 is provided between the drinking nozzle faucet 3 and the filter assembly, and is used to disconnect or connect the drinking nozzle faucet 3 and the filter assembly;

[0024] The first push switch 4 and the second push switch 5 are respectively arranged on both sides of the drinking pool 2 and are located on the drinking station body 1, so that the user can use both hands to press the first push switch 4 and the second push switch 5 at the same time; the first push switch 4, the second push switch 5 and the solenoid valve 10 are connected in series and connected to the power supply 14; the first push switch 4, the second push switch 5 and the power supply 14 cooperate to control the opening or closing of the solenoid valve 10; when the user presses the first push switch 4 and the second push switch 5 at the same time, the solenoid valve 10 opens.

[0025] When the user needs to drink the drinking water, he needs to press the first push switch 4 and the second push switch 5 with both hands at the same time to control the solenoid valve 10 to open, so that the drinking nozzle faucet 3 and the filter component are connected, and the tap water is filtered by the filter component and then sprayed from the drinking nozzle faucet 3 to the top of the drinking pool 2. The user can drink the drinking water, which can avoid the user from using the filtered drinking water for washing hands and other uncivilized behaviors to a certain extent, thereby saving drinking water resources.

[0026] It should be noted that the first push switch 4 and the second push switch 5 in the present invention belong to the prior art, so their specific structures are not described here in detail; only when the first push switch 4 and the second push switch 5 are pressed at the same time, the solenoid valve 10 can be electrically connected to the power supply 14 and opened, so that the drinking nozzle faucet 3 and the filter assembly are connected; when the first push switch 4 and / or the second push switch 5 are released, the solenoid valve 10 is disconnected from the power supply 14 and closed, so that the drinking nozzle faucet 3 and the filter assembly are disconnected.

[0027] Specifically, the filtering assembly includes a primary filter 13, a secondary filter 12 and a tertiary filter 11; the solenoid valve 10 is connected to the tap water pipeline 16 through the primary filter 13, the secondary filter 12 and the tertiary filter 11 in sequence; the tap water in the tap water pipe is filtered in sequence by the primary filter 13, the secondary filter 12 and the tertiary filter 11 and then given to the user for drinking, thereby improving the quality of drinking water.

[0028] In this embodiment, the primary filter 13 is a fiber filter element filter; the secondary filter 12 is an activated carbon filter; and the tertiary filter 11 is a reverse osmosis membrane filter.

[0029] Further, refer to Figure 1 and Figure 5In order to facilitate the user to use tap water for non-drinking activities such as washing hands, a tap 8 and a wash basin 7 are also provided on the drinking station body 1; the wash basin 7 is used to receive the tap water flowing out of the tap 8; adjusting the opening of the valve of the tap 8 can control whether the tap water flows out, or control the flow rate of the tap water; a second drain port 9 is provided at the bottom of the wash basin 7, and the second drain port 9 is used to be connected to the sewage pipeline 15; the wash basin 7 collects the tap water after use and discharges it from the second drain port 9 to the sewage pipeline 15; one end of the tap 8 is connected to the tap water pipeline 16; when the user needs to use the tap water for non-drinking activities such as washing hands, he only needs to turn on the tap 8.

[0030] It should be noted that the water tap 8 is a prior art, so its specific structure will not be described here in detail.

[0031] In this document, the directional words such as front, back, top, and bottom are defined by the positions of the components in the drawings and the positions of the components relative to each other, and are only for the sake of clarity and convenience in expressing the technical solution. It should be understood that the use of the directional words should not limit the scope of protection claimed in this application.

[0032] In the absence of conflict, the above embodiments and features in the embodiments may be combined with each other.

[0033] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
