[0043] The working principle and usage process of the present invention: When using the fast-heating pipeline water dispenser, the user first aligns the smart seat 7 with the water trough 5 for installation, inserts the clamping block 29 into the clamping groove 28, and then rotates the smart seat 7 so that the clamping block 29 is completely clamped into the clamping groove 28, completing the installation of the smart seat 7, and inserts bottled pure water on the smart seat 7. At this time, the bottled pure water replenishes the cold water tank 13, and then the main circuit board 22 controls the water shut-off valve 8 and the water control valve 12 to open, the backwash valve 15 and the drain valve 17 to close, and the bottled pure water enters the water purification box 9 through the water shut-off valve 8, and then is purified and filtered by the ultrafiltration membrane 11 and enters the cold water box through the water control valve 12 for storage. The first water supply pump and the first hose are controlled by the cold water head 3 to directly extract the water in the cold water box, and the second water pump is controlled by the hot water head 4 to extract the water in the cold water tank 13 Out to the electromagnetic heating tube 14 for heating, which can realize instant water supply and reduce waiting time. After using for a period of time, when the ultrafiltration membrane 11 needs to be cleaned, the water shut-off valve 8 and the water control valve 12 are closed through the main circuit board 22, and the backwash valve 15 and the drain valve 17 are opened. The backwash valve 15 reversely draws out the water in the cold water tank 13, so that the water in the clean water tank gradually rises, and then the pollutants on the surface of the ultrafiltration membrane 11 are backwashed. At the same time, the water flow force generated will also open the capillaries on the surface of the ultrafiltration membrane 11, restore the filtering performance of the membrane, and discharge it through the drain valve 17 to the sewage collecting box 18 for centralized collection. After the backwashing process is completed, the water shut-off valve 8 and the water control valve 12 are opened again through the main circuit board 22, and the backwash valve 15 and the drain valve 17 are closed, so as to complete the self-cleaning effect of the ultrafiltration membrane 11.
