[0023] The features of the present invention and other related features are further described in detail below through embodiments to facilitate understanding by those skilled in the art:

[0024] like Figures 1 to 6 As shown, a kettle-type water purifier with ice-making and ice-storing functions comprises a water purifier body 1, on which a first water outlet 12 for outputting purified water, a second water inlet 13 for inputting purified water, and a third outlet 14 for outputting cold water / ice are provided, a multi-purpose thermal insulation container 2 connected with the first water outlet 12 is placed on the water purifier body 1, an ice-making trough 4 is arranged on the water path between the second water inlet 13 and the third outlet 14, a compressor refrigeration assembly 5 for cooling the purified water in the ice-making trough 4 is further arranged in the water purifier body 1, and the third outlet 14 is docked with the multi-purpose thermal insulation container 2 to facilitate the input of cold water / ice into the multi-purpose thermal insulation container 2.

[0025] As described above, the purified water output by the water purifier in this case will be input into the multi-purpose thermal insulation container 2 through the first water outlet 12 for storage. When cold water / ice needs to be prepared, the purified water can be input into the ice making tank 4 through the second water inlet 13, and then the purified water in the ice making tank 4 is cooled by the compressor refrigeration component 5. Cold water / ice can be formed according to the power and working time of the compressor refrigeration component 5. Finally, the cold water / ice in the ice making tank 4 is re-injected into the multi-purpose thermal insulation container 2 through the third output port 14 by turning over the ice making tank 4, so that the user can take out the multi-purpose thermal insulation container 2 to take cold water / ice. In addition, in addition to cooling the purified water in the ice making tank 4 to obtain cold water through the compressor refrigeration component 5, the water purifier in this case can also indirectly obtain cold water by making ice. After ice making is completed, since the ice is stored in the multi-purpose thermal insulation container 2, the purified water in the multi-purpose thermal insulation container 2 can also be cooled by the ice in the multi-purpose thermal insulation container 2 to form cold water. In this way, the water purifier in this case can greatly improve the refrigeration efficiency by arranging a compressor refrigeration component 5 in the water purifier body 1, thereby greatly shortening the speed of cooling water and making ice, avoiding the user from having to wait for a long time, and because the produced cold water and ice will be input into the multi-purpose thermal insulation container 2, the user can prepare them in advance and take them as needed, without having to wait at the water purifier to get cold water and ice immediately, which greatly improves the convenience of users in getting cold water and ice.

[0026] like Figures 1 to 6 As shown, preferably, the multi-purpose thermal insulation container 2 includes a thermal insulation pot body 21 connected to the first water outlet 12, and the upper portion of the thermal insulation pot body 21 is provided with an upper opening 22 connected to the third output port 14, and the thermal insulation pot body 21 is also provided with an ice bucket 23 for holding ice cubes, which is sleeved on the upper opening 22, and the bottom of the ice bucket 23 is provided with a plurality of leakage holes 231 for allowing water to pass through so that cold water can pass through the ice bucket 23 and fall into the bottom of the thermal insulation pot body 21.

[0027] As described above, the insulation pot body 21 of the multi-purpose insulation container 2 of the present case is connected with the first water outlet 12, so that clean water can be input into the insulation pot body 21 through the first water outlet 12, and the cold water / ice outputted from the third outlet 14 can enter the insulation pot body 21 through the upper opening 22, and the ice entering from the upper opening 22 will be intercepted by the ice bucket 23 and stored in the ice bucket 23, while the cold water will pass through the leak 231 and fall into the insulation pot body 21. In this way, it is convenient for users to take ice or cold water separately from the multi-purpose insulation container 2, and it is avoided that the difficulty of taking ice or cold water by users is increased due to the mixing of ice and water.

[0028] Preferably, the heat-insulating pot body 21 is a double-layer heat-insulating pot, and the middle partition layer of the heat-insulating pot body 21 is a vacuum insulation layer or a foam insulation layer.

[0029] like Figures 1 to 6As shown, preferably, the first water outlet 12, the second water inlet 13 and the multi-purpose thermal insulation container 2 are connected via a leak-proof joint assembly 6, so that the clean water output from the first water outlet 12 and the clean water in the multi-purpose thermal insulation container 2 can be used to make ice / ice water.

[0030] like Figures 1 to 6 As shown, preferably, the leak-proof joint assembly 6 includes a three-way joint 61, the first joint of the three-way joint 61 is connected to the first water outlet 12, and the second joint is connected to the second water inlet 13, and the bottom of the multi-purpose thermal insulation container 2 is provided with a fourth water inlet and outlet 24 for docking with the third joint of the three-way joint 61, and a spring-loaded one-way valve 62 is respectively provided at the fourth water inlet and outlet 24 and the third joint, and the valve cores of the two spring-loaded one-way valves 62 are arranged opposite to each other so that when the fourth water inlet and outlet 24 is docked with the third joint, the two valve cores push each other open to allow water to flow through, and when the thermal insulation pot body 21 is picked up, the two valve cores reset and seal respectively to prevent water leakage.

[0031] As described above, by respectively arranging the spring-type one-way valve 62 at the fourth water inlet and outlet 24 and the third joint of the three-way joint 61, it is possible to achieve that when the multi-purpose heat preservation container 2 is placed on the water purifier body 1, the heat preservation pot body 21 is connected to the first water outlet 12 and the second water inlet 13, and when the multi-purpose heat preservation container 2 is taken up, the fourth water inlet and outlet 24 and the third joint of the three-way joint 61 are sealed to prevent water leakage. Moreover, through the three-way joint 61, it is also possible to directly input the purified water output from the first water outlet 12 into the second water inlet 13 for cooling water / ice when the multi-purpose heat preservation container 2 is taken out, which can further improve the flexibility of the use of the water purifier.

[0032] like Figures 3 to 6 As shown, preferably, a first valve pump 3 is further provided on the water path between the second water inlet 13 and the ice making groove 4, so that the first valve pump 3 can be used to control whether to transport clean water to the ice making groove 4 for cooling.

[0033] like Figures 2 to 4 As shown, preferably, the third output port 14 is provided with a sealing ring 141 for contacting the multi-purpose thermal insulation container 2 so as to seal and dock with the multi-purpose thermal insulation container 2 to avoid cold leakage. In this way, it can be ensured that the docking point between the third output port 14 and the multi-purpose thermal insulation container 2 will not have much heat exchange with the outside world, thereby causing the temperature in the multi-purpose thermal insulation container 2 to rise, causing the ice to melt and the cold water to become hot.

[0034] like Figure 4As shown, preferably, the compressor refrigeration assembly 5 includes a compressor 51, a condenser 52, a throttle valve, and an evaporator 53 which are cyclically connected in sequence. The evaporator 53 is arranged at the ice making groove 4 and contacts the clean water in the ice making groove 4 so as to cool the clean water. In this way, the compressor 51 can be used for refrigeration, thereby quickly cooling the clean water in the ice making groove 4.

[0035] like Figures 1 to 6 As shown, preferably, the water purifier body 1 is further provided with a fifth water outlet 15 connected with the second water inlet 13, and the waterway between the fifth water outlet 15 and the second water inlet 13 is provided with a second valve pump 7 and a heating pipe 8 in sequence, so that when the user needs to take hot water, the purified water in the multi-purpose thermal insulation container 2 can be pumped out through the second valve pump 7 and output from the fifth water outlet 15 after being heated by the heating pipe 8. At the same time, only the second valve pump 7 can be enabled without enabling the heating pipe 8, so that the water in the multi-purpose thermal insulation container 2 can be directly taken.

[0036] like Figures 2 to 3 As shown, preferably, the water purifier body 1 is also provided with a raw water inlet 11 for inputting raw water into the water purifier.

[0037] like Figure 3 As shown, preferably, a booster pump 9 and a filter element 10 are provided in sequence in the waterway between the raw water inlet 11 and the first water outlet 12, so that the raw water input from the raw water inlet 11 can be sent to the filter element 10 for filtration, so that the first water outlet 12 can output clean water.

[0038] like Figures 2 to 3 As shown, preferably, the water purifier body 1 is further provided with a concentrated water outlet 16 connected to the filter element 10 .

[0039] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, preferably, a detachable raw water tank 17 is also installed on the water purifier body 1 , and the raw water inlet 11 and the concentrated water outlet 16 are both connected to the inner cavity of the raw water tank 17 .

[0040] As mentioned above, this case protects a kettle-type water purifier with ice making and ice storage functions. All technical solutions that are the same or similar to this case should be deemed to fall within the scope of protection of this case.
