[0018] To make the purpose, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this application more clear, the technical solutions in the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of this application. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of this application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in this application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0019] like Figure 1-Figure 7 As shown, an embodiment of the present application provides a wall-mounted water supply device, including: a casing 1 and a control module 2.

[0020] The housing 1 includes a shell 11 and a door 12. The door 12 is arranged on the shell 11 to realize the function of opening and closing the door. In addition, the housing 1 also includes a water supply pipe 13 and a water outlet 14.

[0021] Specifically, drinking water is supplied to the water outlet 14 through the water supply pipe 13. In order to meet the requirements of wall mounting, the back of the housing 11 is further provided with a wall mounting portion 111, which can be used to hang the housing 1 on a wall. The physical form of the wall mounting portion 111 can be a structure such as a wall mount.

[0022] The control module 2 includes a control panel 21, a control component 22, and an electronic control component 23. The control component 22 and the electronic control component 23 are electrically connected to the control panel 21. The electronic control component 23 is configured to control the water outlet 14 to discharge or shut off water. The control panel 21, the control component 22, and the electronic control component 23 are disposed on the housing 1.

[0023] Specifically, the control panel 21 is integrated with a controller (e.g., a conventional control device such as a single-chip microcomputer) to provide the corresponding control functions. A control component 22 is disposed on the housing 1 and enables the user to control the operation of the wall-mounted water supply device. The control component 22 can be represented by a physical case or conventional operating components such as a touch screen, without limitation.

[0024] The electronic control component 23 is controlled by the control panel 21. When the user operates the control component 22 to trigger the electronic control component 23 to switch on and off through the control panel 21, the electronic control component 23 is controlled to discharge water out of the water outlet 14 or to turn off the water supply. The electronic control component 23 can be expressed in various forms. For example, the electronic control component 23 can be an electronic control valve, which can be used to open and close the water flow path of the water outlet 14 to control the discharge or shutoff of water from the water outlet 14. When the electronic control valve is open, water flows into the water outlet 14 and is discharged outward. Alternatively, the electronic control component 23 can be a water pump, which can be used to drive the water flow to discharge water out of the water outlet 14 or to turn off the water supply. When the water pump stops, the water flow path of the water outlet 14 is closed.

[0025] Regardless of whether the electronic control component 23 adopts an electronic control valve or a water pump, the electronic control component 23 controls the on-off flow of the water flow path of the water outlet 14. The specific control method of the electronic control component 23 for the water outlet and water shut-off of the water outlet 14 can refer to the water connection method and control method of the conventional direct drinking machine, and no limitation or elaboration will be made here.

[0026] Example 1, as Figure 1-Figure 7 As shown, in the wall-mounted water supply equipment provided in one embodiment of the present application, in order to protect the water outlet 14 and reduce the contamination of the water outlet 14 when not in use, the following structural improvements are made to the direct drinking machine.

[0027] The casing 1 includes a shell 11, a door 12 and a water supply pipe 13. A wall-mounted mounting portion 111 is provided on the back of the shell 11, and a water receiving area 113 is formed on the front of the shell 11. A water outlet 14 and a water receiving tray 10 are provided in the water receiving area 113, and the water outlet 14 is arranged above the water receiving tray 10.

[0028] The door body 12 can be moved on the housing 11 according to the need of opening and closing the door, and when the door body 12 is in a closed state, the door body 12 covers the water receiving area 113 and further covers the water outlet 14 through the door body 12 .

[0029] Compared to the prior art direct drinking machines in which the water spout 14 is always exposed, the housing 1 of the present application is provided with a closable door 12 to cover the water spout 14 provided on the housing 11. For wall-mounted direct drinking machines, the door 12 can cover the water spout 14 when not in use, thereby reducing the risk of contamination of the water spout 14 due to long-term exposure.

[0030] By providing a switchable door body 12 on the casing 1, the water spout 14 can be protected by opening and closing the door body 12 during use. When the user needs to collect drinking water through the water spout 14, the door body 12 on the casing 1 can be opened to expose the water spout 14, which can meet the user's requirement of collecting water through the water spout 14. When not in use, the door body 12 can be closed so that the water spout 14 is covered and protected by the door body 12, thereby reducing the long-term exposure of the water spout 14 to the outside and easy contamination, thereby improving the user experience.

[0031] In one embodiment, in order to improve the quality of water delivered from the water supply pipe 13 to the water outlet 14 and thus improve the quality of direct drinking water, the wall-mounted water supply device further includes a water flow sterilization module 3, wherein the water flow sterilization module 3 is configured to perform ultraviolet sterilization treatment on the water flowing therethrough; The water flow sterilization module 3 is connected to the water supply pipe 13 .

[0032] Specifically, the water flow sterilization module 3 is connected to the water supply pipe 13. For the direct drinking water delivered through the water supply pipe 13, the direct drinking water will first be delivered to the water flow sterilization module 3, so that the water flowing through the water flow sterilization module 3 is sterilized. In this way, the water sterilized by the water flow sterilization module 3 can effectively reduce the impact of bacteria on the water quality of the direct drinking water, thereby improving the water quality of the direct drinking water output by the water outlet 14.

[0033] The water flow sterilization module 3 is disposed in the housing 1 and can be connected to the water flow path between the water supply pipe 13 and the water outlet 14, or alternatively, connected in series to the water supply pipe 13. The water flow sterilization module 3 can employ an existing over-flow ultraviolet sterilization device, such as the technical solution disclosed in Chinese Patent Publication No. CN209554830U, which is not limited or elaborated herein.

[0034] In one embodiment, an ultraviolet germicidal lamp 15 is further provided in the housing 1 , and the ultraviolet germicidal lamp 15 is configured to irradiate the water outlet 14 with ultraviolet rays for sterilization when the door 12 is closed.

[0035] Specifically, in order to further perform antibacterial and sterilization treatment on the water outlet 14, an ultraviolet sterilization lamp 15 is provided on the housing 1. The ultraviolet sterilization lamp 15 can generate ultraviolet rays to perform sterilization and antibacterial treatment through ultraviolet rays.

[0036] Specifically, because the ultraviolet light generated by the ultraviolet germicidal lamp 15 is harmful to the human body, the ultraviolet germicidal lamp 15 can generally be activated by the control panel 21 only when the door 12 is closed. When the door 12 is closed, the space within the housing 1 where the water receiving area 113 is located forms a relatively closed structure. The ultraviolet light generated by the ultraviolet germicidal lamp 15 at least irradiates the water outlet 14 in the water receiving area 113, thereby sterilizing and inhibiting the water outlet 14 with the ultraviolet light.

[0037] In order to improve the ultraviolet sterilization effect of the water outlet 14, the ultraviolet sterilization lamp 15 can be arranged near the water outlet 14 to increase the intensity of ultraviolet radiation on the water outlet 14, thereby improving the sterilization and antibacterial effects.

[0038] In one embodiment, the wall-mounted water supply device further includes a water storage container 16; the water storage container 16 is disposed on the housing 11; The water supply pipe 13 is configured to supply water to the water storage container 16 so as to supply water to the water outlet 14 through the water storage container 16 .

[0039] Specifically, a water storage container 16 is provided in the casing 1, and the water storage container 16 has a certain volume for temporarily storing direct drinking water. In this way, when the user takes water, water can be supplied to the outside through the water storage container 16 to increase the water output speed and reduce the influence of the water output flow of the direct drinking water production equipment, which is more conducive to improving the user experience.

[0040] The water-making equipment for preparing direct drinking water is a conventional water-making machine, and no limitation or elaboration is made on the water-making machine capable of preparing direct drinking water.

[0041] In actual use, the drinking water delivered by the water supply pipe 13 is sterilized by ultraviolet light in the water flow sterilization module and then flows into the water storage container 16 for temporary storage. When the user comes to the direct drinking machine to get water, the water in the water storage container 16 is output from the water outlet 14.

[0042] When the water storage container 16 is integrated and fixed on the housing 1 , the water supply pipe 13 is connected to the water storage container 16 , and the water storage container 16 is connected to the water outlet 14 .

[0043] Furthermore, to promptly replenish the water storage container 16 with direct drinking water, a float switch (not shown) may be provided in the water storage container 16. The float switch is electrically connected to the control board 21, and the control board 21 controls the water supply pipe 13 to supply water to the water storage container 16 based on the float switch. The control board 21 controls the water supply from the water supply pipe 13 in a manner similar to the opening and closing method of the water outlet 14. For example, the water supply pipe 13 may be connected to an electrically controlled valve or a water pump. When the water pump is activated, direct drinking water is pumped into the water supply pipe 13. Alternatively, when the direct drinking water outputted by the water generator has sufficient water pressure, an electrically controlled valve may be provided on the water supply pipe 13 to control the opening and closing of the water channel, eliminating the need for a water pump.

[0044] Alternatively, in order to replenish the water storage container 16 with drinking water in time, a weighing sensor 161 is provided on the housing 1, and the weighing sensor 161 is electrically connected to the control board 21; The weighing sensor 161 is configured to weigh the water storage container 16 .

[0045] Specifically, the load cell 161 can measure the weight of the water container 16 and the water stored therein, and the control board 21 controls the water supply pipe 13 to supply water to the water container 16 based on the weight information measured by the load cell 161. The water supply method of the water supply pipe 13 is described above and will not be repeated here.

[0046] In another embodiment, since the water storage container 16 stores a certain amount of water during use, if the water storage container 16 is not used for a long time, the water quality will also deteriorate. In particular, during the night time period, if the user does not use the water in the water storage container 16 for a long time, the water in the water storage container 16 will be stale when it is used in the morning. Figure 11 As shown, the housing 1 is also equipped with a drain pipe 18, which selectively connects to the water storage container 16. Specifically, if the water in the water storage container 16 remains unused for a set period of time, the control panel 21 controls the drain pipe 18 to connect to the water storage container 16, thereby draining the water stored in the water storage container 16 through the drain pipe 18. Furthermore, after the water storage container 16 is drained, the water supply pipe 13 is controlled to replenish the water storage container 16.

[0047] Among them, electric control valves can be respectively provided in the water supply pipe 13 and the drainage pipe 18. By controlling the actions of different electric control valves, the water supply of the water supply pipe 13 and the drainage of the drainage pipe 18 can be controlled. Here, there is no restriction on the specific way in which the control panel 21 controls the water supply of the water supply pipe 13 and the drainage of the drainage pipe 18.

[0048] In addition, since the water dripping from the water outlet 14 during the user's water collection process will also accumulate in the water receiving tray 10, the water receiving tray 10 is connected to the drain pipe 18 via a connecting pipe. In this way, the water accumulated in the water receiving tray 10 can also be discharged in time through the drain pipe 18, so that there is no need to manually clean the water receiving tray 10.

[0049] Example 2, as Figure 1-Figure 7 As shown, in order to facilitate users to get water, the wall-mounted water supply equipment provided in one embodiment of the present application is not restricted by the space between the water outlet 14 and the water receiving tray 10, and the following structural improvements are made to the installation method of the water outlet 14.

[0050] The present application provides a wall-mounted water supply device, including a housing 1 and a control module 2. For the specific structural configuration description of the housing 1 and the control module 2, please refer to the description in the above embodiment and will not be repeated here.

[0051] The housing 1 is provided with a water supply pipe 13 , a wall mounting portion 111 is provided on the back of the housing 1 , and a movable mounting bracket 17 is also provided on the housing 1 . A water outlet 14 is provided on the mounting bracket 17 , and the water supply pipe 13 is configured to supply water to the water outlet 14 .

[0052] Specifically, a movable mounting bracket 17 is provided on the housing 11 of the casing 1. The water outlet 14 is disposed on the mounting bracket 17. The water outlet 14 is connected to the water supply pipe 13 via a conventional water connection method such as a connecting water pipe. The water outlet 14 can move relative to the casing 1 following the mounting bracket 17.

[0053] During actual use, if the cup used by the user to take water is relatively high, the height between the water outlet 14 and the water receiving tray 10 at the bottom cannot meet the water receiving requirements. At this time, the water outlet 14 can be moved out away from the shell 11 by installing the bracket 17, so that the user can conveniently take water through the cup.

[0054] More importantly, when the direct drinking machine adopts a lightweight design, the overall thickness of the housing 1 can be made as thin as possible, so that the water outlet 14 can be closer to the wall to reduce the space occupied indoors. When the user takes water, the water outlet 14 can be pulled out away from the wall by the mounting bracket 17 to meet the user's normal water collection requirements.

[0055] In one embodiment, the movable connection between the mounting bracket 17 and the housing 1 has various structural forms.

[0056] In one embodiment, the mounting bracket 17 is rotatably disposed on the housing 1 .

[0057] Specifically, the mounting bracket 17 can be rotated on the casing 1. In this way, during the rotation of the mounting bracket 17, the water outlet 14 on the mounting bracket 17 can be moved closer to or away from the casing 1, thereby meeting the user's requirement of removing the water outlet 14 from the casing 1 when taking water.

[0058] In order to meet the requirement of rotatable installation of the mounting bracket 17, a support shaft 171 is provided on the mounting bracket 17, and the mounting bracket 17 is rotatably mounted on the casing 1 through the support shaft 171; or, a hinge is provided on the casing 1, and the mounting bracket 17 is rotatably mounted on the casing 1 through the hinge.

[0059] In another embodiment, the mounting bracket 17 is movably disposed on the housing 1 .

[0060] Specifically, the mounting bracket 17 can be moved on the casing 1 . When water needs to be collected, the mounting bracket 17 can be pulled to move relatively away from the casing 1 , thereby pulling the water outlet 14 out of the casing 1 .

[0061] In order to achieve the movable installation requirement of the mounting bracket 17, various structural forms can also be adopted.

[0062] For example, slide grooves (not shown) are provided on both side walls of the housing 1, and slide rails (not shown) are provided on both sides of the mounting bracket 17. The slide grooves and the slide rails are arranged transversely, and the slide rails are slidably provided in the slide grooves.

[0063] Specifically, the housing 11 of the casing 1 is provided with a transversely arranged slide groove, which cooperates with the transversely arranged slide rail on the mounting bracket 17 to enable the mounting bracket 17 to slide back and forth. Of course, in this case, the movement distance of the mounting bracket 17 is limited by the thickness of the housing 11. However, as long as the mounting bracket 17 can move relative to the back of the casing 1, it can drive the water outlet 14 to extend outside the casing 1, making it easier for the user to get water.

[0064] Alternatively, a telescopic bracket (not shown) is provided on the housing 1 , and the mounting bracket 17 is provided on the telescopic bracket. The telescopic bracket is configured to support the mounting bracket 17 to move closer to or away from the housing 1 .

[0065] Specifically, the telescopic bracket has a telescopic function, indirectly attaching the mounting bracket 17 to the housing 11 via the telescopic bracket. When the mounting bracket 17 needs to be moved, the telescopic bracket is extended and retracted by pushing and pulling the mounting bracket 17, thereby achieving movement of the mounting bracket 17. The telescopic bracket can be physically constructed using the telescopic bracket structure of a television, reduced in size to fit within the housing 1 of the water dispenser. For example, prior art disclosed in Chinese Patent Publication No. CN221839291U can be employed, and no further details are provided herein.

[0066] In the case where the mounting bracket 17 is movable relative to the housing 1 , the length of the water supply pipe 13 needs to match the moving stroke requirement of the mounting bracket 17 .

[0067] In another embodiment, when a water storage container 16 is provided, the water storage container 16 is detachably mounted on the mounting bracket 17; When the water storage container 16 is placed on the mounting bracket 17 , the water supply pipe 13 , the water storage container 16 , and the water outlet 14 are connected in sequence.

[0068] Specifically, in order to facilitate the installation of the water storage container 16, the water storage container 16 can also be installed on the mounting bracket 17, thereby facilitating the connection between the water storage container 16 and the water outlet 14 on the mounting bracket 17 for water supply.

[0069] By providing a movable mounting bracket 17 on the casing 1, the water outlet 14 is provided on the mounting bracket 17. Under the support of the mounting bracket 17, the water outlet 14 can be movable relative to the casing 1. In this way, in the later use process, the position of the water outlet 14 can be adjusted by the mounting bracket 17 to reduce the inability to normally collect water from the water outlet 14 due to space limitations, so as to meet the water collection requirements of water collection containers of different sizes and improve the user experience; more importantly, since the water outlet 14 can be moved relative to the casing 1 through the mounting bracket 17, the overall thickness of the wall-mounted water supply equipment is made thinner in the actual product design process, so as to reduce the space occupied after wall-mounted installation, and, under the premise of a thin thickness, the mounting bracket 17 can drive the water outlet 14 away from the casing 1 to ensure that there is enough space between the water outlet 14 and the wall during the water collection process, which is more convenient for the user to collect water and improves the convenience of use and user experience.

[0070] Among them, based on the first embodiment, the corresponding technical solutions in the second embodiment can be further added; similarly, based on the second embodiment, the corresponding technical solutions in the first embodiment can be further added. No limitation or redundant description is made here.

[0071] Example 3, based on the above examples 1 and 2, as Figures 1-10 As shown, the wall-mounted water supply equipment provided in one embodiment of the present application makes the following structural improvements to the direct drinking machine in order to meet the user's requirements for convenience and to achieve the purpose of eliminating the need to wait for a long time on site to receive direct drinking water.

[0072] The wall-mounted water supply device provided in this application includes: a casing 1, a water storage container 16 and a control module 2.

[0073] The housing 1 is provided with a water supply pipe 13 and a water outlet 14, and the back of the housing 1 is provided with a wall-mounted mounting portion 111. The control module 2 includes a control panel 21, an operating component 22 and an electronic control component 23. For specific descriptions of the housing 1 and the control module 2, please refer to the records in the above embodiment and will not be repeated here.

[0074] The water storage container 16 is detachably mounted on the housing 1 .

[0075] When the water storage container 16 is disposed on the housing 11 , the water supply pipe 13 , the water storage container 16 , and the water outlet 14 are connected in sequence.

[0076] Specifically, the water storage container 16 is detachably mounted on the housing 1. During normal use, the water storage container 16 is placed on the housing 1, connecting the water supply pipe 13, the water storage container 16, and the water outlet 14 in sequence. This allows the drinking water output from the water supply pipe 13 to temporarily flow into the water storage container 16. When the water outlet 14 needs to dispense water, water is supplied to the water outlet 14 through the water storage container 16.

[0077] When a user needs to use a large amount of drinking water at one time, that is, the water storage volume in the water storage container 16 can meet the usage requirements, and the user needs to get water immediately, the water storage container 16 can be removed from the housing 1. The user can then carry the water storage container 16 to a specific area and directly pour out the water in the water storage container 16 for use.

[0078] In this way, the user's requirement to take more water at one time can be met, and the user's requirement to take water without waiting on site can be met, thereby improving the user's convenience.

[0079] In one embodiment, a water supply connector 131 is provided at the water outlet end of the water supply pipe 13 , and the water supply connector 131 is configured to input the water transported by the water supply pipe 13 into the water storage container 16 ; When the water storage container 16 is installed on the housing 11 , the water supply connector 131 is in communication with the water storage container 16 .

[0080] Specifically, since the water storage container 16 can be removed from the housing 1, a removable water connection must be provided between the water supply pipe 13 and the water storage container 16. By configuring a water supply connector 131 on the water supply pipe 13, the water supply connector 131 satisfies the removable installation requirement of the water storage container 16. After the water storage container 16 is assembled to the housing 1, the water supply connector 131 communicates with the interior of the water storage container 16, allowing water transported by the water supply pipe 13 to enter the water storage container 16.

[0081] The water supply pipe 13 is connected to the water-generating equipment. Typically, water is supplied to the water supply pipe 13 only when the user operates the control component 22 via the control module 2 to cause water to flow (for example, operating the control component 22 triggers the water-generating equipment to produce water, thereby achieving water supply; or, alternatively, the water-generating equipment is always supplying water, and operating the control component 22 triggers the opening of an electrically controlled valve on the water supply pipe 13 to achieve water supply). Therefore, removing or placing the water storage container 16 does not affect the water supply to the water supply pipe 13. Typically, after the water storage container 16 is removed from the housing 1, there is no need to worry about water leakage at the water supply connector 131.

[0082] In one embodiment, in order to facilitate the connection between the water supply connector 131 and the water storage container 16 , a water outlet 162 is provided on the upper portion of the water storage container 16 .

[0083] Specifically, since the water storage container 16 can be removed from the casing 1, the user can pour out the water after leaving the casing 1 to meet the user's water needs. For this purpose, a water outlet 162 is provided on the upper part of the water storage container 16. The user tilts the water storage container 16 so that the water in the water storage container 16 can flow out from the water outlet 162.

[0084] In one embodiment, in order to ensure a detachable connection between the water supply connector 131 and the water storage container 16 , when the water storage container 16 is disposed on the housing 11 , the water supply connector 131 is inserted into the water outlet 162 .

[0085] Specifically, after the water storage container 16 is installed on the casing 1, the water supply connector 131 will be inserted into the water outlet 162 of the water storage container 16, and the water supply connector 131 will extend into the interior of the water storage container 16 through the water outlet 162 to supply water to the water storage container 16 through the water supply pipe 13.

[0086] In one embodiment, in order to ensure a detachable connection between the water supply connector 131 and the water storage container 16 , a first plug port 163 is provided on the side wall of the water storage container 16 , and a first one-way valve 164 is provided in the first plug port 163 ; When the water storage container 16 is placed on the housing 11 , the water supply connector 131 is inserted into the first insertion port 163 and the first one-way valve 164 is opened.

[0087] Specifically, a first plug port 163 is provided on the side wall of the water storage container 16, and a first one-way valve 164 is disposed within the first plug port 163. When closed, the first one-way valve 164 prevents water in the water storage container 16 from leaking out of the first plug port 163. In actual use, after the water storage container 16 is installed in the housing 1, the water supply connector 131 is inserted into the first plug port 163, and the first one-way valve 164 is opened, thereby connecting the water supply connector 131 to the water storage container 16. When the water storage container 16 is removed from the housing 1, the water supply connector 131 is pulled out of the first plug port. At this point, the first one-way valve 164 resets and automatically closes the first plug port, preventing water in the water storage container 16 from leaking out of the first plug port.

[0088] In another embodiment, since the water storage container 16 is capable of being assembled and disassembled, it also needs to meet the requirement of supplying water to the water outlet 14. In order to facilitate the connection between the water supply connector 131 and the water outlet 14, the water outlet 14 is further connected to a water outlet connector 141. The water outlet connector 141 is configured to communicate with the water storage container 16 to deliver the water output from the water storage container 16 to the water outlet 14. When the water storage container 16 is disposed on the housing 11 , the water outlet connector 141 is in communication with the water storage container 16 .

[0089] Specifically, the water outlet 14 is connected to a water outlet connector 141 via a water pipe, and can be connected to the water storage container 16 through the water outlet connector 141 to ensure that the water in the water storage container 16 is delivered to the water outlet 14. Moreover, after the water storage container 16 is assembled on the housing 1, the water outlet connector 141 will be connected to the water storage container 16.

[0090] In one embodiment, in order to facilitate the connection between the water outlet connector 141 and the water storage container 16 and to prevent the water storage container 16 from leaking after being removed from the housing 1, the water storage container 16 is provided with a second plug port 165, and a second one-way valve 166 is provided in the second plug port 165; When the water storage container 16 is placed on the housing 11 , the water outlet connector 141 is inserted into the second plug port 165 and the second one-way valve 166 is opened.

[0091] Specifically, the water container 16 is provided with a second plug port 165, and a second one-way valve 166 is disposed within the second plug port 165. When closed, the second one-way valve 166 prevents water in the water container 16 from leaking out of the second plug port 165. In actual use, after the water container 16 is installed in the housing 1, the water outlet connector 141 is inserted into the second plug port 165, and the second one-way valve 166 is opened. This connects the water outlet connector 141 to the water container 16, allowing water in the water container 16 to flow to the water outlet 14 via the water outlet connector 141.

[0092] When the water storage container 16 is removed from the housing 1, the water outlet connector 141 is unplugged from the second socket. At this time, the second one-way valve 166 resets and automatically closes the second socket to prevent the water in the water storage container 16 from leaking from the second socket.

[0093] The second plug-in port 165 is arranged on the side wall of the water storage container 16 ; or, the second plug-in port 165 is arranged on the bottom plate of the water storage container 16 .

[0094] In one embodiment, when a mounting bracket 17 is provided on the housing 1 , the water outlet 14 is disposed on the mounting bracket 17 , and the water storage container 16 is detachably disposed on the mounting bracket 17 .

[0095] Specifically, the mounting bracket 17 can meet the installation requirements of the water outlet 14 and the water storage container 16 , and the mounting bracket 17 can also be movable relative to the housing 11 as needed.

[0096] The water supply connector 131 and the water outlet connector 141 are correspondingly arranged on the mounting bracket 17 . Thus, after the water storage container 16 is placed on the mounting bracket 17 , the water supply connector 131 and the water outlet connector 141 facilitate connection with the water storage container 16 .

[0097] Furthermore, in order to improve the assembly reliability of the water storage container 16 on the mounting bracket 17, upper flanges 172 are provided on both side edges of the mounting bracket 17, and a sliding guide space is formed between the two upper flanges 172, and the water storage container 16 can be slidably arranged in the sliding guide space.

[0098] Specifically, upper flanges 172 are provided on both sides of the mounting bracket 17. After the water storage container 16 is placed on the mounting bracket 17, the water storage container 16 is located between the two upper flanges 172, so that the water storage container 16 can be prevented from falling off the mounting bracket 17 through the upper flanges 172 on both sides.

[0099] At the same time, when the user places the water storage container 16 on the mounting bracket 17, the two upper flanges 172 can be used for guidance so that the water storage container 16 can be slidably installed on the mounting bracket 17, and after being installed in place, the water supply connector 131 and the water outlet connector 141 are connected to the water storage container 16.

[0100] In one embodiment, a load cell 161 is used to weigh the water container 16 and the water stored therein. The load cell 161 is mounted on the mounting bracket 17. Once the water container 16 is placed on the mounting bracket 17, the load cell 161 can be used to weigh the water container 16 and the water stored therein. When the water level in the water container 16 drops to a set level, the weight detected by the load cell 161 falls below a first set value. At this point, water is supplied to the water container 16 via the water supply pipe 13 until the weight detected by the load cell 161 reaches a second set value, at which point the water supply pipe 13 is closed. The second set value is greater than the first set value. The specific weight value depends on the size of the water container 16 and is not limited here.

[0101] In one embodiment, in order to meet the requirement of draining water from the water storage container 16, a drain pipe 18 and a two-position three-way valve 142 are provided on the housing 1; The water outlet joint 141 is connected to the water outlet nozzle 14 and the drain pipe 18 respectively through the two-position three-way valve 142 , and the two-position three-way valve 142 is electrically connected to the control panel 21 .

[0102] Specifically, if the water in the water storage container 16 is not used for a long time, it is necessary to drain the water in the water storage container 16 and replace it with new water, thereby improving the water quality of the user. The two-position three-way valve 142 is used to control the selective connection of the water outlet connector 141 with the water outlet nozzle 14 or the drain pipe 18. When the water is in normal use, the water outlet nozzle 14 is connected to the water outlet connector 141 through the two-position three-way valve 142; when the water is draining, the drain pipe 18 is connected to the water outlet connector 141 through the two-position three-way valve 142.

[0103] By configuring a detachable water storage container 16 on the casing 1, under normal use, the water storage container 16 is set on the casing 1. At this time, the water supply pipe 13, the water storage container 16 and the water outlet 14 are connected in sequence, and the water transported by the water supply pipe 13 enters the water storage container 16, and a certain amount of water is temporarily stored in the water storage container 16. When the user needs water, the water in the water storage container 16 is output from the water outlet 14; and when the user has special water needs, the user can also take the water storage container 16 out of the casing 1, carry the water storage container 16 to the required location to pour water for use, and since a certain amount of water has been temporarily stored in the water storage container 16, on the one hand, the user does not need to wait nearby to get water, and on the other hand, the water can be taken to any location with the water storage container 16 to use water, which is more conducive to improving the user's convenience and user experience.

[0104] Example 4, as Figures 1-10 As shown, the wall-mounted water supply equipment provided in one embodiment of the present application makes the following structural improvements to the direct drinking machine in order to enrich the functions of the direct drinking machine.

[0105] The wall-mounted water supply equipment provided in this application can not only supply direct drinking water to the outside, but also supply heated direct drinking water to the outside as needed. At the same time, it can also realize storage and sterilization treatment of the docking water container, as described below.

[0106] The wall-mounted water supply device comprises: a housing 1 and a control module 2. For details about the housing 1 and the control module 2, reference may be made to the description in the above embodiment, which will not be described in detail here.

[0107] The casing 1 includes a shell 11, a door body 12 and a water supply pipe 13. The back of the shell 11 is provided with a wall-mounted mounting portion 111.

The electric heating component 173 and the ultraviolet germicidal lamp 15 are electrically connected to the control board 21 respectively.

[0108] Specifically, the front of the housing 11 is provided with an installation area 112 and a water receiving area 113. The installation area 112 is provided with a water storage container 16 and an electric heating component 173. Direct drinking water delivered by the water supply pipe 13 can be temporarily stored in the water storage container 16, and the electric heating component 173 can heat the water in the water storage container 16. Thus, during user use, when the user needs hot water, the control panel 21 controls the electric heating component 173 to energize and heat the water in the water storage container 16. For the electric heating component 173, external heating can be used to heat the water storage container 16.

[0109] For example: the electric heating component 173 can adopt a PTC heating plate, and the water storage container 16 is placed on the upper surface of the PTC heating plate. After the PTC heating plate is powered on, the heat generated by the PTC heating plate will heat the water stored in the upper water storage container 16. For the method of heating the water in the water storage container 16 by the electric heating component 173, reference can be made to the method of heating the water in the kettle in conventional technology, and no limitation or elaboration is made here. Under normal circumstances, in order to meet the temperature requirements for direct drinking water, the temperature of the water storage container 16 heated by the PTC heating plate can generally reach the direct drinking water temperature range of 40 degrees to 45 degrees, and there is no limitation on the heating temperature here.

[0110] The water receiving tray 10 and water spout 14 are located in the water receiving area 113, and the space between them can also be used to store water containers (such as cups). During use, the user can place a water cup on the water receiving tray 10. After closing the door 12, a relatively closed space is formed between the door 12 and the water receiving area 113. The ultraviolet germicidal lamp 15 can be powered on, and the ultraviolet light generated by the ultraviolet germicidal lamp 15 can irradiate the water cup and water spout 14 in this space with ultraviolet light, thereby achieving a sterilizing and antibacterial effect.

[0111] In one embodiment, the ultraviolet germicidal lamp 15 is arranged close to the water outlet 14; The ultraviolet germicidal lamp 15 is configured to irradiate ultraviolet rays toward the water outlet 14 and the water receiving tray 10 .

[0112] Specifically, in order to better perform ultraviolet sterilization on the water outlet 14, the ultraviolet sterilization lamp 15 is arranged at the water outlet 14. The ultraviolet sterilization lamp 15 is closer to the water outlet 14, so that the ultraviolet rays generated by the ultraviolet sterilization lamp 15 can effectively irradiate the water outlet 14 to improve the sterilization effect.

[0113] In addition, the ultraviolet germicidal lamp 15 adopts a point light source mode, and can irradiate the generated ultraviolet rays onto the water receiving tray 10 below to play an antibacterial role.

[0114] In one embodiment, the water receiving tray 10 is provided with a water collecting groove 101 and a mounting groove 102 which are independent of each other. The water collecting groove 101 is arranged below the water outlet 14, and the mounting groove 102 is provided with an electric heating and drying component 103; The water receiving tray 10 is further provided with a shelf 104 , which covers the water collecting groove 101 and the installation groove 102 .

[0115] Specifically, in the water receiving tray 10, a water collection groove 101 is arranged below the water spout 14. In this way, when the user receives water, water drops falling from the water spout 14 can be collected by the water collection groove 101. As for the installation groove 102 offset from below the water spout 14, an electric heating and drying component 103 can be provided in the installation groove 102. The electric heating and drying component 103 can be powered to generate heat to dry water containers such as cups placed on the shelf 104.

[0116] As for the electric heating and drying component 103, it can be a PTC heating plate to achieve precise temperature control and effectively dry the water cup.

[0117] As for the water collecting groove 101, it can be connected to the drain pipe 18, so that the water in the water collecting groove 101 is discharged outward from the drain pipe 18. Among them, the drain pipe 18 can be connected to the sewer pipe according to the decoration design of the user's home.

[0118] In another embodiment, in order to achieve a more beautiful overall appearance, the door body 12 also covers the installation area 112 when in a closed state.

[0119] Specifically, the size of the door body 12 is designed to cover both the installation area 112 and the water receiving area 113 when the door is closed, thereby making the overall appearance in the closed state more beautiful.

[0120] In one embodiment, when the housing 11 is provided with a mounting bracket 17, the mounting bracket 17 is provided with a horizontally arranged storage platform 174. The storage platform 174 divides the housing 11 into the mounting area 112 and the water receiving area 113 arranged in upper and lower directions.
