[0026] The preferred embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings so that the advantages and features of the present invention can be more easily understood by those skilled in the art, thereby making a clearer and more precise definition of the protection scope of the present invention.

[0027] See also Figure 1-7 , embodiments of the present invention include:

[0028] Example 1

[0029] The present invention discloses an installation-free water channel device for a wall-mounted water dispenser, including the following components installed on the wall-mounted water dispenser 100.

[0030] The water tank 10 has four latching holes 11 on the upper front and rear sidewalls for connecting to the wall-mounted water dispenser 100. Hooks (not shown) matching the position and size of the latching holes 11 are located on the front and rear inner sides of the bottom of the wall-mounted water dispenser 100. These latching holes 11 removably connect to the hooks, allowing the water tank 10 to be removably mounted on the bottom of the wall-mounted water dispenser 100. This removable mounting design facilitates removal of the water tank 10 for cleaning.

[0031] The water tank 10 is a transparent water tank, and its material is transparent acrylic or other food-grade transparent engineering plastics. The transparent material is selected to facilitate observation of the water level from the outside so as to replenish the water tank 10 with water in time.

[0032] The water suction assembly 20 is rotatably mounted on the bottom of the wall-mounted water dispenser 100. Specifically, the water suction assembly 20 includes a water suction tray 21, a water suction tray seat 22, and a water suction pipe 23. The water suction tray seat 22 is mounted on the bottom of the wall-mounted water dispenser 100 and is provided with a water outlet pipe 24, which is connected to the water suction pump 110 within the wall-mounted water dispenser 100. One end surface of the water suction tray seat 22 has a curved water channel, as does one end surface of the water suction tray 21. The curved water channel-bearing end surface of the water suction tray 21 mates with the curved water channel-bearing end surface of the water suction tray seat 22, connecting the water suction tray 21 and the water suction tray seat 22 via the curved water channel. Specifically, the water suction pan 21 is pluggably connected to the curved water channel of the water suction pan seat 22, allowing the water suction pan 21 to rotate relative to the water suction pan seat 22. One end of the water suction pipe 23 is mounted on the water suction pan 21 and can be rotated to either a horizontal or vertical position by the rotation of the water suction pan 21. When the water suction pipe 23 rotates to a vertical position, its other end extends into the bottom of the water tank 10. Under the action of the water pump 110, water within the water tank 10 flows sequentially through the water suction pipe 23, the water suction pan 21, and the water suction pan seat 22 into the wall-mounted water dispenser 100. When the water suction pan 21 rotates relative to the water suction pan seat 22 until the water suction pipe 23 is horizontal, the curved water channel between the water suction pan 21 and the water suction pan seat 22 becomes disconnected, preventing water from flowing back into the dispenser.

[0033] In addition, a pressure plate 25 is also installed on the side of the water suction tray 21 away from the water suction tray seat 22 by screws. The pressure plate 25 plays a role in protecting the water suction tray 21 and preventing the water suction tray 21 from being worn due to frequent rotation.

[0034] When it is not necessary to absorb water from the water tank 10, the water absorption plate 21 is rotated to rotate the water absorption pipe 23 thereon to a horizontal state and hidden at the bottom of the wall-mounted water dispenser 100. The water dispenser is directly supplied with water by the water purifier.

[0035] When the water tank 10 is needed to supply water, the water suction plate 21 is rotated until the water suction pipe 23 thereon is rotated to a vertical state, and then the water tank 10 is installed.

[0036] The water adding assembly 30 is installed on the outer shell of the wall-mounted water dispenser 100 and is located directly below the water outlet of the wall-mounted water dispenser 100. On the one hand, it is used to add water to the water tank 10, and on the other hand, it can receive water drops dripping from the water outlet of the water dispenser.

[0037] Specifically, the water addition assembly 30 includes a water addition box 31, a water addition pipe 32, a water receiving box 33, and a water receiving box cover 34. The wall-mounted water dispenser 100 has water addition box mounting posts 120 on its outer panel. The water addition box 31 is removably mounted on the outer panel of the wall-mounted water dispenser 100 via these posts. A water addition pipe 130 is also located between the posts 120 on the outer panel of the wall-mounted water dispenser 100. One end of the water addition pipe 32 is connected to the water addition box 31, and the other end is connected to the water addition pipe 130. The other end of the water addition pipe 130 is a right-angle elbow and is located above the water tank 10. Water in the water addition box 31 flows into the water tank 10 through the water addition pipe and the water addition pipe.

[0038] The water receiving box 33 is built into the water adding box 31, and the water receiving box cover 34 is placed on the top of the water receiving box 33. The water receiving box 33 and the water receiving box cover 34 together constitute a water receiving part for receiving water drops dripping from the water outlet of the wall-mounted water dispenser 100 and conveniently taking them out and pouring them away.

[0039] In addition, the size of the water receiving box cover 34 is greater than or equal to the size of the water adding box 31, so as to realize the function of a dust cover to prevent the water adding box 31 from being contaminated by dust and dripping water. In addition, the water adding box 31 is detachable and can be removed for cleaning and disinfection, thereby ensuring the safety and hygiene of the water adding box 31.

[0040] The working principle of the installation-free water channel device of the wall-mounted water dispenser of the present invention is as follows:

[0041] When the water inlet pipe of the wall-mounted water dispenser is connected to the RO water purifier, the water suction pipe of the wall-mounted water dispenser is in a horizontal state.

[0042] When the wall-mounted water dispenser is not directly connected to the RO water purifier as a pure water source, remove the water inlet pipe of the wall-mounted water dispenser and rotate the water suction assembly at the bottom of the wall-mounted water dispenser to rotate the water suction pipe from a horizontal state to a vertical state;

[0043] Install the water tank so that the four holes on the top of the water tank are connected to the hooks on the bottom of the wall-mounted water dispenser;

[0044] Turn on the wall-mounted water dispenser, and its water pump draws pure water from the water tank through the water suction component;

[0045] To replenish the water tank, take out the water receiving parts (water receiving box and water receiving box cover) in the water adding box, and inject purified water into the water adding tank. The purified water in the water adding box flows into the water tank through the water adding pipe, water adding sleeve and right-angle elbow in turn to replenish the water tank. The purified water added can be the water in the RO water purifier already in the home or the purified water in a large bottle, which provides greater flexibility in the selection of purified water sources.

[0046] The wall-mounted water dispenser of the present invention has a water channel device that does not require installation. This avoids the limitation of existing wall-mounted water dispensers that they can only be connected to RO water purifiers as a pure water source through the design of the water tank, water absorption component and water adding component. This allows the wall-mounted water dispenser to be installed in any room of the home without any quantity restrictions, truly realizing the requirement that it can be installed as long as there is electricity. This greatly reduces the threshold for using wall-mounted water dispensers and is conducive to the large-scale promotion of the product and the development of the industry.
