[0027] When it is determined that the clean water content in the cold water tank does not meet the requirements, check whether the raw water tank is full of water. If so, control the raw water tank to send water into the cold water tank through the filter element and the clean water valve. If not, control the output of the water replenishment prompt.

[0029] When it is determined that the clean water content in the cold water tank does not meet the requirement, detect whether the raw water tank is full of water. If so, control the raw water tank to send water into the cold water tank through the filter element and the clean water valve. If not, control the output of the water replenishment prompt.

[0030] When it is determined based on the cold water flow valve and the water level probe in the mixing tank that the liquid level in the mixing tank meets the predetermined value, the cold water pump is controlled to be turned off, and the first output end of the hot water valve and the hot water pump are started at the same time, so as to pump the clean water into the hydraulic chamber in the gas tank assembly through the first output end, so as to open the gas tank assembly, spray carbon dioxide gas into the mixing tank, and determine the concentration of the prepared bubble water by the pumping time. When the target concentration is reached, the hot water pump is controlled to be turned off;

[0031] After the mixing tank is pressurized, the air pressure in the mixing tank is released through the solenoid valve and the pressure relief valve on the mixing tank, and then the air pump is started to control the opening of the large-flux valve to slowly blow the bubble water in the mixing tank out through the large-flux valve.

[0033] 1. Able to prepare different types of drinking water, including purified water, cold water, hot water and sparkling water;

[0034] 2. The internal water system structure of the water dispenser is simplified. By using a valve with dual output ends, pipes with the same source can be merged, and the same type of water can be transported to different destinations using the dual output end valve;

[0035] 3. A hydraulic chamber as a switch is set on the gas tank assembly, so that the gas tank assembly can be opened and closed by changing the flow in the pipeline system. The operation is simple and convenient, and the controllability is strong, which can effectively achieve the effect of automatically pumping air from the gas tank assembly into the mixing tank;

[0036] 4. By setting a special large-caliber valve, i.e., a large-flux valve, at the outlet of the mixing tank, different opening degrees of the outlet can be achieved by controlling the electric rotary valve core in the electric large-flux valve to rotate at different angles, so as to directly connect the mixing tank and the water outlet component without setting a grid, etc., effectively ensuring the normal output of the bubble water and avoiding the separation of the bubble water and water;

[0037] 5. By arranging a pressure relief valve, a solenoid valve and an air pump on the mixing tank, the air pressure in the mixing tank can be completely released without affecting the output of the bubble water. At the same time, the output of the bubble water is controlled by the air pump, so that the bubble water can be blown out slowly and gently, thereby ensuring that the gas concentration of the bubble water is high.

[0051] This specification may use the phrases "in one embodiment," "in another embodiment," "in a further embodiment," or "in other embodiments," all of which may refer to one or more of the same or different embodiments according to the present disclosure.

[0052] The embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0053] like Figure 1 As shown, an embodiment of the present invention provides a multifunctional water dispenser, comprising:

[0054] A water tank assembly, used to store raw water and purified water, wherein the raw water is used to convert into purified water;

[0055] Gas tank assembly, used for storing and outputting carbon dioxide gas;

[0056] A heating component, used for heating water to generate hot water;

[0057] A refrigeration component is used to cool the water to generate cold water;

[0058] A water system connected to the heating assembly and the refrigeration assembly for conveying clean water to the heating assembly and the refrigeration assembly to generate hot water or cold water. The water system is also connected to the water tank assembly for conveying clean water;

[0059] A gas circuit system, connected to the gas tank assembly, for delivering a specified amount of carbon dioxide gas;

[0060] A water outlet component is connected to the water system and the gas system and is used to output purified water, hot water, cold water and bubble water. The water outlet component includes a large-flux valve for directly outputting the bubble water to prevent the bubble water from being separated from water and gas; and

[0061] The control system is connected with the water tank assembly, the gas tank assembly, the heating assembly, the refrigeration assembly, the water system, the gas system and the water outlet assembly, so as to control the operation of each assembly and system accordingly according to the instructions input by the user.

[0062] The multifunctional water dispenser in this embodiment can monitor the temperature and water volume inside the machine, and dynamically adjust the working status of each component and system according to the monitored temperature and water volume and customer needs, thereby outputting hot water, cold water, pure water and sparkling water as required by customers.

[0063] When the water dispenser in this embodiment is turned on, it first performs an internal self-check of the program. When the sensors in the control system are within the set value range, the display screen and screen retrieval program in the control system are started to be ready to accept user input instructions at any time. If the result of the self-check program indicates a machine failure, the controller in the control system will control the error to be reported on the screen and wait for the user to handle the failure.

[0064] like Figure 1 As shown, the water tank assembly in this embodiment includes a raw water tank and a clean water tank. The raw water tank is used to send raw water into the clean water tank through an output end of a clean water valve after the raw water passes through a booster pump and a composite filter element to form clean water under the control of the control system;

[0065] The water tank assembly also includes a cold water tank, which is connected to the other output end of the water purification valve for receiving purified water. The cold water tank is also connected to the refrigeration assembly for cooling the water in the cold water tank to form cold water. The cold water assembly in this embodiment is shown in the figure, including a circulation pump, a condenser, a fan, a compressor, a dryer, a capillary tube and an evaporator. The cold water tank is also connected to the mechanical discharge waterway for drainage. The raw water tank, the clean water tank and the cold water tank are connected through some pipelines in the waterway system, and the above-mentioned valves, pumps and composite filter elements are arranged on the said part of the pipeline.

[0066] Further, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the water outlet component in this embodiment includes a mixing tank and a cold water outlet nozzle for mixing carbon dioxide gas and cold water to generate bubble water, the water system includes a cold water pipeline connected to the cold water tank, the cold water pipeline is provided with a cold water flow pump and a cold water valve with two output ends, the first pipeline in the water system is connected to the mixing tank and the first output end of the cold water valve, and the second pipeline in the water system is connected to the second output end of the cold water valve and the cold water outlet nozzle.

[0067] like Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown, the water outlet assembly includes a hot water outlet nozzle, the water system includes a clean water pipeline connected to the clean water tank, the clean water pipeline is provided with a hot water flow pump and a hot water valve with two output ends, the third pipeline in the water system is connected to the gas tank assembly and the first output end of the hot water valve, and is used to use clean water to open the gas tank assembly so that it outputs carbon dioxide gas to the mixing tank, and the fourth pipeline in the water system is connected to the second output end of the hot water valve, the heating assembly (i.e., the instant heating assembly in the figure), and the hot water outlet nozzle in sequence. When the heating assembly is started, the hot water outlet nozzle outputs hot water, and when the heating assembly is turned off, the hot water outlet nozzle outputs clean water at room temperature. That is, when the user wants the water dispenser to provide clean water, the clean water is output through the hot water outlet nozzle.

[0068] Continue to combine Figure 1 As shown, the gas tank assembly and the mixing tank in this embodiment are connected through a gas circuit system. The gas tank assembly includes a gas tank and a hydraulic chamber provided on the gas tank. The hydraulic chamber is used to open and close the gas tank through hydraulic pressure, for example, by conveying water of different flow rates into the hydraulic chamber to adjust its hydraulic pressure, thereby realizing the opening and closing of the gas tank. When opened, the gas tank can pump air into the mixing tank.

[0069] The mixing tank is provided with an air pump, a solenoid valve, a safety valve, a pressure relief valve and a water level probe. The pressure relief valve is used to discharge excess gas in the bottle, the solenoid valve is used to completely relieve pressure in the bottle, and the air pump is used to slowly blow the bubble water toward the bubble water outlet in the water outlet assembly. For example, the hydraulic chamber is used to open the gas tank and inflate the mixing tank, and the excess gas in the mixing tank will be discharged through the pressure relief valve. After the pumping stops, there will be a lot of air pressure in the mixing tank. Directly using the remaining air pressure to blow out the bubble water will reduce the concentration of the bubble water due to excessive water discharge. Therefore, the solenoid valve can be used to completely relieve pressure first, and then the air pump can be used to slowly and gently blow out the bubble water, so that the bubble water can be more guaranteed to have a high concentration and will not separate from water and gas.

[0070] Combination Figure 5 As shown, the large-flux valve is connected to the outlet end of the mixing tank, and the large-flux valve includes a water inlet end, a water outlet end, and an electric rotary valve respectively connected to the water inlet end and the water outlet end, the electric rotary valve is driven by a motor, and the electric rotary valve is connected to a control system, and is used to rotate to open a specified angle according to the control of the control system, thereby connecting the water inlet end and the water outlet end.

[0071] Further, when using the multifunctional water dispenser, Figure 6As shown, for example, the user inputs an output water purification instruction, and the control system responds to the output water purification instruction, determines that the water content in the water purification tank meets the requirement, controls the heating component to be in a closed state, and starts the hot water pump to pump the water in the water purification tank to the hot water outlet, and uses the hot water flow pump to count the flow, and controls the hot water pump to stop running when the flow meets the requirement;

[0072] When it is determined that the clean water content in the clean water tank does not meet the requirements, check whether the raw water tank is full of water. If so, control the raw water tank to send water into the clean water tank through the filter element and the clean water valve. If not, control the output of the water replenishment prompt. For example, if the clean water pot is not full of water, continue to detect whether the raw water tank is higher than the low water level. If it is higher, switch the output end of the clean water valve to the clean water pot, start the booster pump to replenish the clean water pot through the filter element; if the raw water tank is lower than the low water level, the screen returns to the water shortage promotion customer to add water.

[0073] In another embodiment, if the user inputs a hot water output instruction, the control system responds to the hot water output instruction, determines that the clean water content in the clean water tank meets the requirement, starts the hot water pump to pump the clean water in the clean water tank into the heating component, delays the start of the heating component, and turns off the hot water pump at the same time. When the heating component reaches the target temperature, the hot water pump is started to pump the hot water to the hot water outlet, and the hot water flow pump is used to count the flow, and when the flow meets the requirement, the hot water pump is controlled to stop running;

[0074] When it is determined that the clean water content in the clean water tank does not meet the requirements, check whether the raw water tank is full of water. If so, control the raw water tank to send water into the clean water tank through the filter element and the clean water valve. If not, control the output of the water replenishment prompt, such as outputting the water replenishment prompt through the screen of the display screen.

[0075] In another embodiment, if the user inputs a cold water output instruction, the control system responds to the cold water output instruction, determines that the clean water content in the cold water tank meets the requirements, detects the clean water temperature in the cold water tank, and if the target temperature is reached, controls the second output end of the cold water valve to open, and controls the cold water pump and the cold water flow valve to start, so as to pump a specified amount of cold water to the cold water outlet through the second output end; if the target temperature is not reached, controls the refrigeration component to operate, so as to circulate and refrigerate the clean water in the cold water tank;

[0076] When it is determined that the clean water content in the cold water tank does not meet the requirements, check whether the raw water tank is full of water. If so, control the raw water tank to send water into the cold water tank through the filter element and the clean water valve. If not, control the output of the water replenishment prompt.

[0077] In another embodiment, if the user inputs an instruction to output bubble water, the control system responds to the instruction to output bubble water, determines that the clean water content in the cold water tank meets the requirement, detects the clean water temperature in the cold water tank, and if the target temperature is reached, controls the first output end of the cold water valve to open, and controls the cold water pump and the cold water flow valve to start, so as to pump a specified amount of cold water to the mixing tank through the first output end; if the target temperature is not reached, controls the refrigeration component to operate, so as to circulate and refrigerate the clean water in the cold water tank;

[0078] When it is determined that the clean water content in the cold water tank does not meet the requirement, detect whether the raw water tank is full of water. If so, control the raw water tank to send water into the cold water tank through the filter element and the clean water valve. If not, control the output of the water replenishment prompt.

[0079] When it is determined based on the cold water flow valve and the water level probe in the mixing tank that the liquid level in the mixing tank meets the predetermined value, the cold water pump is controlled to be turned off, and the first output end of the hot water valve and the hot water pump are started at the same time, so as to pump the clean water into the hydraulic chamber in the gas tank assembly through the first output end, so as to open the gas tank assembly, spray carbon dioxide gas into the mixing tank, and determine the concentration of the prepared bubble water by the pumping time. When the target concentration is reached, the hot water pump is controlled to be turned off;

[0080] After the mixing tank is pressurized, the air pressure in the mixing tank is released through the solenoid valve and the pressure relief valve on the mixing tank, and then the air pump is started to control the opening of the large-flux valve to slowly blow the bubble water in the mixing tank out through the large-flux valve.
