Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of embedded home appliance technology, and in particular to an embedded water purifier. Background Technology

[0002] Built-in water purifiers are increasingly favored by consumers because they can be completely integrated into cabinets or walls, forming a harmonious and aesthetically pleasing whole with the overall interior environment. Furthermore, with consumption upgrades and a faster pace of life, convenient brewed beverages such as capsule coffee are gaining popularity among younger consumers.

[0003] In existing technologies, water supply and extraction functions are usually achieved by separate devices: traditional water purifiers can only provide purified water at different temperatures (such as room temperature water, cold water or hot water) and cannot extract beverages; capsule coffee machines and beverage machines are specifically designed for preparing specific beverages and do not have conventional water supply and purification functions.

[0004] This separate configuration has many drawbacks: users need to place multiple devices such as water purifiers and coffee machines in a limited space. Taking a family kitchen (especially a small kitchen) as an example, the combination of multiple devices such as water purifiers and coffee machines can easily lead to a prominent problem of overcrowding.

[0005] Even those few devices that attempt to combine water purification and extraction functions are mostly non-embedded designs, making it impossible to integrate them into the overall layout of the indoor environment.

[0006] Therefore, it is necessary to propose an embedded water purifier to solve at least one of the above problems.

[0007] It should be noted that the above introduction to the technical background is only for the purpose of providing a clear and complete explanation of the technical solutions of this application and facilitating understanding by those skilled in the art. It should not be assumed that these technical solutions are known to those skilled in the art simply because they have been described in the background section of this application.

[0041] The technical solution of the present invention has the following significant beneficial effects:

[0042] The embedded water purifier provided in this application embodiment features a recessed section in the front frame with an opening at the top. This recess allows for the embedded installation of the extraction module, effectively ensuring structural neatness and aesthetics after installation. Specifically, the extraction module includes a first component fixed within the frame and a movable second component. During use, the second component smoothly extends into the frame through the opening and mates with the first component. When installing the second component, the blocking portion within the recess cooperates with the positioning portion on the second component to precisely limit its insertion trajectory, effectively preventing offset or misalignment during installation. This significantly improves the operational stability of the extraction module, reduces installation difficulty for users, and enhances ease of use.

[0043] Meanwhile, in this embodiment, the extraction module and the water purification module are integrated into an embedded frame. When the user needs to use the extraction function, the water purification module can directly provide the user with the required purified water to the extraction module. When the water purification module has a water temperature adjustment function, the water supply temperature can be adjusted according to the user's needs, thereby preparing extracts of different temperatures suitable for various beverages (such as coffee, tea, etc.), fully meeting the personalized and diversified needs of different users for extracted beverages.

[0044] Overall, the embedded water purifier provided in this application saves indoor space by eliminating the need for multiple additional devices compared to existing independently set water purifiers and extraction equipment (such as coffee machines). Compared to devices that combine water purification and extraction functions, this application can cleverly integrate the extraction module into the frame with minimal modifications to existing embedded water purifiers at a lower cost.

[0045] In summary, this built-in water purifier effectively balances multifunctionality, space saving, aesthetics, and ease of operation, ultimately meeting consumers' comprehensive needs for integrated, space-saving, aesthetically pleasing, easy-to-operate, and low-cost home water purifiers.

[0104] This invention provides an embedded water purifier that integrates water supply and beverage extraction, improving extraction stability and ease of operation while maintaining the overall aesthetics of the interior environment and the practicality of the equipment.

[0105] Please refer to the following for comprehensive information. Figures 1 to 15 This application specification provides an embedded water purifier, which may include: a frame 100, the frame 100 including a front frame 110, the front frame 110 having a recess 120 recessed into the frame 100; an extraction module 200, the extraction module 200 including a first component 210 fixedly disposed within the frame 100 and a second component 220 movably adapted to the first component 210; and an opening 130 disposed on the upper part of the recess 120, the second component 220 being at least partially openable. The second component 220 is movably extended into the frame 100 through the opening 130, and the second component 220 can be adapted to the first component 210; a blocking portion 140 is located in the recess 120, and a positioning portion is formed on the second component 220, the blocking portion 140 can be adapted to the positioning portion to position the second component 220 when the second component 220 is installed in the frame 100; a water purification module is disposed in the frame 100, and the water purification module can supply the extraction module 200 with the water required for extraction.

[0106] The embedded water purifier provided in this embodiment of the application features a recess 120 in the front frame 110 and an opening 130 at the top of the recess 120. The extraction module 200 is embedded within the opening 130 of the recess 120, effectively ensuring structural regularity and aesthetics after installation. Specifically, the extraction module 200 may include a first component 210 fixed within the frame 100 and a movable second component 220. In use, the second component 220 can smoothly extend into the frame 100 through the opening 130 and be appropriately matched with the first component 210. When installing the second component 220, the blocking part 140 within the recess 120 cooperates with the positioning part on the second component 220 to precisely limit the insertion trajectory of the second component 220, effectively preventing offset or misalignment during installation. This significantly improves the operational stability of the extraction module 200, while reducing the difficulty of installation and enhancing ease of use.

[0107] Meanwhile, in this embodiment, the extraction module 200 and the water purification module are integrated into the embedded frame 100. When the user needs to use the extraction function, the water purification module can directly provide the user with the purified water required by the user. When the water purification module has a water temperature adjustment function, the water supply temperature can be adjusted according to the user's needs, thereby preparing extracts of different temperatures suitable for various beverages (such as coffee, tea, etc.), fully meeting the personalized and diversified needs of different users for extracted beverages.

[0108] Overall, the embedded water purifier provided by this application saves indoor space significantly by eliminating the need for multiple additional devices compared to existing independently set water purifiers and extraction devices (such as coffee machines). Compared to devices that combine water purification and extraction functions, this application can cleverly integrate the extraction module 200 into the frame 100 with minimal modifications to existing embedded water purifiers at a lower cost.

[0109] In summary, this built-in water purifier effectively balances multifunctionality, space saving, aesthetics, and ease of operation, ultimately meeting consumers' comprehensive needs for integrated, space-saving, aesthetically pleasing, easy-to-operate, and low-cost home water purifiers.

[0110] The present application will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0111] like Figure 1As shown, the built-in water purifier may include a frame 100, which serves as the mounting carrier for the entire built-in water purifier, used to embed it into a cabinet or wall to achieve embedded installation of the entire unit. The external dimensions of the frame 100 can be adapted to the dimensions reserved in the built-in cabinet. Generally, the frame 100 can be box-shaped, such as a cuboid, to better fit the built-in cabinet.

[0112] In this embodiment, a water purification module is also provided within the frame 100. This water purification module is connected to the extraction module 200, specifically to the first component 210 of the extraction module 200, and can supply the extraction module 200 with the water required for extraction. Specifically, the water purification module may include an RO membrane filter and a water pump that pressurizes the RO membrane filter. By integrating the water purification module within the frame 100, the extraction module can directly supply extraction water to the extraction module 200 without an external water source, thus achieving integrated water purification for drinking and beverage extraction. This embedded water purifier can meet various water needs and save space. Furthermore, the water purification module may also include a hot water tank and a cold water tank. When the water purification module includes both a hot water tank and a cold water tank, it has a water temperature regulation function, capable of providing different water temperatures to the extraction module 200. The water purification module of this embedded water purifier can adjust the water supply temperature according to user needs, thereby preparing extracts at different temperatures suitable for various beverages (such as coffee, tea, etc.), fully meeting the personalized and diversified needs of different users for extracted beverages.

[0113] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 10 As shown, the frame 100 includes a front frame 110, which is the part of the frame 100 facing the user and is the core part for daily user operation and device appearance display. A recess 120 is formed on the front frame 110, recessed into the frame 100. Specifically, the recess 120 can be a cavity structure formed by the front frame 110 recessing into the frame 100 (the side facing away from the user). The recess 120 provides a mounting base for the subsequent extraction module 200 and blocking part 140, and provides space for accommodating and positioning the second component 220, ensuring that the second component 220 does not protrude from the front frame 110 after installation, thus maintaining the integrity of the embedded appearance.

[0114] In this embodiment, by providing an inwardly recessed portion 120 in the front frame 110, a dedicated space is provided for the movable assembly of the extraction module 200, and the extraction module 200 is prevented from occupying the external space of the frame 100. At the same time, an installation position is provided for the blocking portion 140, which solves the contradiction between the integration of the extraction module 200 and the difficulty in achieving a flat and beautiful embedded appearance. This is conducive to achieving integrated design and ensuring the aesthetics of the embedded water purifier.

[0115] In one embodiment, the front frame 110 may include a filter replacement area 111, a pure water area 112, and an extraction area 113 arranged sequentially along the horizontal direction.

[0116] The front frame 110 is horizontally divided into sections for filter replacement, pure water, and extraction. Each section has a clear function and a neat layout, adapting to the space requirements of embedded installation and the user's daily operating habits. For example, the filter replacement area 111 can be located on the left, the pure water area 112 in the middle, and the extraction area 113 on the right. This horizontal division method conforms to user operating habits and improves ease of use. Of course, the horizontal arrangement of the filter replacement area 111, pure water area 112, and extraction area 113 is not limited to the above description. For example, the filter replacement area 111 can be located on the right, the pure water area 112 in the middle, and the extraction area 113 on the left, etc.

[0117] The filter replacement area 111 is used to house the water purification module, which may specifically include a filter cartridge assembly. The replacement area 111 has corresponding installation and removal ports to provide space for filter cartridge installation and replacement operations. The structure of these ports is adapted to the size and replacement stroke of the filter cartridge. Overall, by providing the filter replacement area 111 in the front frame 110, users can quickly replace the filter cartridge without disassembling the entire machine, reducing the difficulty of equipment maintenance.

[0118] The pure water zone 112 is used to dispense pure water, and typically includes a pure water spout and a pure water control unit. Additionally, a water temperature adjustment function can be integrated into this zone to suit different user needs, such as drinking and cooking. This pure water zone 112 connects to the water purification modules (such as filter cartridges, water pumps, hot water tanks, and cold water tanks) inside the frame 100, allowing for rapid output of filtered pure water. The position of the pure water spout is designed to fit the user's height when placing or removing cups, improving user comfort.

[0119] The extraction area 113 is used to integrate the extraction module 200 to realize the extraction function of beverages such as capsules. At the same time, the layout of this area is independent of the pure water area 112 to avoid interference with the pure water intake during the extraction process and to ensure the stability and independence of the two functions.

[0120] When different functional areas are distributed independently, each area is clear and independent, without interfering with others. When users need to obtain pure water or extracted beverages, they can quickly and accurately select the desired product based on the clearly defined location of each area, effectively reducing the risk of mis-dispensing due to misplaced cups and improving ease of use and accuracy. Compared to existing designs that integrate multiple functions into a single area, where both pure water and extracted liquid dispensing nozzles are located, users need to spend extra time confirming the type of liquid dispensed by each nozzle, making the operation cumbersome, error-prone, and resulting in a poor user experience. This application, through the aforementioned partitioned design, directly avoids these problems, significantly optimizing the user experience and better meeting the needs of easy-to-operate and convenient use of embedded water purifiers.

[0121] In one embodiment, the front frame 110 is an integrally molded injection molded part.

[0122] When the front frame 110 is integrally injection molded, the overall processing precision of the front frame 110 is high, the structural strength is good, there are no assembly gaps, and the appearance is consistent. At the same time, it simplifies the assembly process, reduces production costs, and improves the reliability and aesthetics of the whole machine.

[0123] In this embodiment, a recess 120 is formed on the front frame 110 in the extraction area 113, recessed into the frame 100. An opening 130 is provided at the upper part of the recess 120 for mounting the extraction module 200. The lower middle part of the recess 120 can form a placement space for placing a cup.

[0124] Please refer to the following: Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 , Figure 9 , Figure 10 , Figure 11 and Figure 13 The extraction module 200 may include a first component 210 fixedly disposed within the frame 100 and a second component 220 that can be movably adapted to the first component 210. When the extraction module 200 uses the fixed first component 210 and the movably disposed second component 220, the two constitute a separate structure, thereby facilitating capsule dispensing, removal, and cleaning and maintenance.

[0125] The upper opening 130 of the recess 120 allows the second component 220 to extend into it for assembly with the first component 210. The blocking part 140 inside the recess 120 cooperates with the positioning part of the second component 220 to achieve precise positioning of the second component 220 during installation, preventing offset or skew during assembly, thereby ensuring the fitting accuracy and operational stability of the second component 220 and the first component 210 in the extraction module 200.

[0126] In one embodiment, after the second component 220 is installed into the frame 100, the outer surface of the front frame 110 is flush with the outer surface of the second component 220 due to the cooperation of the blocking part 140 and the positioning part.

[0127] In the implementation, with the positioning cooperation of the blocking part 140 and the positioning part, the outer surface of the front frame 110 is flush with the outer surface of the second component 220, so that the front appearance of the embedded water purifier is flat and integrated, which improves the overall aesthetics and is more coordinated with the cabinet decoration. At the same time, it avoids the problem of dust accumulation and inconvenient cleaning caused by uneven surfaces.

[0128] like Figure 3 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, in one embodiment, the blocking portion 140 is a blocking wall formed on the outer surface of the recess 120, and the blocking wall extends into the cavity of the recess 120.

[0129] In this embodiment, the blocking part 140 can specifically be a blocking wall formed on the outer surface of the recess 120. One side of the blocking wall is connected to the recess 120, and the other side extends into the cavity of the recess 120. Since the blocking wall is integrally formed with the recess 120, no additional assembly parts are required, which simplifies processing, reduces costs, and improves structural strength. It also prevents the blocking part 140 from deforming during positioning, ensuring the stability and reliability of positioning.

[0130] Furthermore, when the blocking portion 140 extends into the cavity of the recess 120, it not only does not affect the aesthetics of the front frame 110, but also blocks the first component 210 at the rear, thereby enhancing the aesthetics of the front frame 110.

[0131] like Figure 4 As shown, in one embodiment, the recess 120 has a symmetry plane 121 extending in a vertical direction, and the blocking wall includes a first blocking wall 141 and a second blocking wall 142 disposed on the outer surface of the recess 120. The first blocking wall 141 and the second blocking wall 142 are symmetrically disposed on the outer surface of the recess 120 about the symmetry plane 121.

[0132] In this embodiment, the blocking wall includes a first blocking wall 141 and a second blocking wall 142 arranged symmetrically. The two blocking walls are arranged symmetrically so that the force on the left and right sides is even when the second component 220 is installed, avoiding the skewing and jamming caused by unilateral positioning, and further improving the positioning accuracy and assembly smoothness. In addition, the symmetrical structure is adapted to the vertical symmetry plane 121 of the recess 120, making the internal structure of the recess 120 more regular and making the overall equipment more aesthetically pleasing.

[0133] Please refer to the following: Figure 1 , Figure 4 , Figure 10 and Figure 11 In one embodiment, the outer surface of the barrier wall is parallel to the outer surface of the front frame 110, and the positioning part on the second component 220 has a positioning surface 231, which abuts against the outer surface of the barrier wall after the second component 220 is installed in the front frame 110.

[0134] In this embodiment, the outer surface of the barrier wall is parallel or substantially parallel to the front frame 110 (the included angle between the two is within the allowable tolerance range, for example, within 5°), so that the positioning surface 231 and the outer surface of the barrier wall form a surface contact. Compared with point contact and line contact, the positioning area is larger and the positioning is more stable, which can reliably limit the second component 220. At the same time, it can also disperse the assembly force, avoid excessive local force leading to damage to parts, and extend the service life of the equipment.

[0135] Furthermore, the outer surface of the barrier wall is parallel to the outer surface of the front frame 110. When the second component 220 is installed in the front frame 110, based on the structure of the second component 220 itself, the positioning surface 231 of the second component 220 is also parallel to its own front surface. This ensures that when the second component 220 is installed in the front frame 110, the second component 220 is parallel to the outer surface of the front frame 110, thereby ensuring the flatness and aesthetics of the entire front frame 110.

[0136] In one embodiment, the blocking wall has a predetermined distance from the outer surface of the front frame 110, and the blocking wall and the outer surface of the front frame 110 have a first connecting wall, which is formed by a portion of the wall of the recess 120.

[0137] In this embodiment, the barrier wall is at a predetermined distance from the outer surface of the front frame 110, providing space for the positioning portion of the second component 220 and avoiding assembly interference caused by insufficient positioning space. The first connecting wall is integrally formed from the wall of the recess 120, eliminating the need for additional connectors, simplifying the structure, reducing costs, and simultaneously improving the connection strength between the barrier wall and the front frame 110, preventing deformation of the barrier wall under stress. Furthermore, the first connecting wall acts as a transition, making the internal structure of the recess 120 smoother and reducing dust accumulation.

[0138] Please refer to the following: Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 11 In one embodiment, a second connecting wall is provided between the front surface of the second component 220 and the positioning surface 231. The outer surfaces of the first connecting wall and the second connecting wall are configured to conform to each other, and are fitted together or gap-fitted after the second component 220 is installed in the front frame 110.

[0139] In this embodiment, the outer surfaces of the first connecting wall and the second connecting wall can be configured to conform to the shape of the front frame 110. Thus, when the second component 220 is installed into the front frame 110, the first connecting wall and the second connecting wall can form a close fit or a small gap fit. This can reduce or even eliminate the fit gap between the two, ensuring the accuracy of the positioning between the second component 220 and the front frame 110, and also helping to ensure a neat appearance.

[0140] Please refer to the following: Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 4 and Figure 11 In one specific embodiment, the recess 120 has a symmetrical plane 121 extending in a vertical direction. The blocking wall includes a first blocking wall 141 and a second blocking wall 142 disposed on the outer surface of the recess 120. The first connecting wall includes a left first connecting wall 161 and a right first connecting wall 162. The left first connecting wall 161 is inclined from the surface of the front frame 110 to the first blocking wall 141 towards the symmetrical plane 121, and the right first connecting wall 162 is inclined from the surface of the front frame 110 to the second blocking wall 142 towards the symmetrical plane 121. The second connecting wall includes a left second connecting wall 261 and a right second connecting wall 262. The left second connecting wall 261 is inclined from the front surface of the second component 220 to the positioning surface 231 towards the symmetrical plane 121, and the right second connecting wall 262 is inclined from the front surface of the second component 220 to the positioning surface 231 towards the symmetrical plane 121.

[0141] In this embodiment, the left and right connecting walls (left first connecting wall 161 and right first connecting wall 162, left second connecting wall 261 and right second connecting wall 262) are all inclined towards the symmetry plane 121 to form a constricted guide structure. When the second component 220 is installed, it can automatically align with the center of the recess 120 through the fitting guide of the inclined connecting walls, achieving automatic centering without the need for manual alignment by the user, thus improving assembly convenience. In addition, the symmetrical inclined structure makes the left and right forces more even, avoiding assembly jamming and skewing, while the inclined transition is smoother, reducing dust accumulation and improving cleaning convenience. The symmetrical structure can also simplify mold design and facilitate processing and molding.

[0142] Please refer to the following: Figure 1 , Figure 8 and Figure 13 In one embodiment, the frame 100 may further include a support portion 150 located in the recess 120, the support portion 150 being used to support the first component 210 located within the frame 100, and the support surface 151 of the support portion 150 being substantially perpendicular to the outer surface of the front frame 110.

[0143] In this embodiment, a support portion 150 is provided inwardly at the opening 130 of the recess 120. This support portion 150 provides a stable mounting carrier for the first component 210, supporting its weight and preventing displacement due to vibration or extraction pressure, thus ensuring stable mounting posture. The support surface 151 is perpendicular to the front frame 110, ensuring the first component 210 is mounted vertically and matches the insertion direction of the second component 220, guaranteeing precise docking and improving extraction stability. Since the support portion 150 is located within the recess 120, it does not occupy additional space in the frame 100, improving space utilization and better meeting the requirements of embedded integration.

[0144] Please refer to the following: Figure 13 In one embodiment, the edge of the support portion 150 is provided with a stop portion 180, which is used to limit the first component 210.

[0145] In this embodiment, the edge of the support portion 150 may be provided with a stop portion 180. The stop portion 180 can restrict the first component 210 from moving left and right and / or back and forth on the support surface 151, so as to prevent the first component 210 from shifting slightly due to vibration and extraction pressure, thereby further improving the installation stability. At the same time, it helps to ensure the accurate relative position of the first component 210 and the second component 220, and prevent problems such as leakage and incomplete puncture caused by shift during extraction.

[0146] The blocking part 140 and the supporting part 150 are integrally connected within the recess 120. Specifically, the blocking part 180 and the supporting part 150 can be integrally molded and installed in the recess 120. This simplifies the processing and assembly process and reduces costs. The integral structure has higher rigidity and strength, is less prone to deformation, and avoids positioning deviations and unstable support caused by loosening of parts after long-term use. In addition, it can ensure the relative positional accuracy of the two components without additional adjustment, ensuring the accurate relative position of the first component 210 and the second component 220 and improving extraction stability.

[0147] Specifically, the stop portion 180 may include a stop wall that extends vertically. When the stop wall extends vertically, it forms a larger limiting area in the height direction, resulting in a more reliable limiting effect and effectively restricting the horizontal movement of the first component 210. Furthermore, the vertically extending stop wall does not occupy the installation space of the first component 210 and does not interfere with the extraction operation.

[0148] In one embodiment, along the thickness direction, the barrier wall includes a front barrier wall and a rear barrier wall, the front barrier wall being used to abut against a positioning surface 231 on the second component 220, and the rear barrier wall being used to abut against the first component 210.

[0149] In this embodiment, the blocking wall includes a front blocking wall and a rear blocking wall, which are respectively disposed on two stacked structures. Alternatively, they can be formed by the front and rear surfaces of the same blocking part 140. For example, the front surface of the blocking part 140 is used to form the front blocking wall, and the rear surface of the blocking part 140 is used to form the rear blocking wall.

[0150] When the first component 210 and the second component 220 are positioned using the blocking part 140 at the same location, it is beneficial to simplify the structure, save space, and better meet the needs of embedded compactness. The front blocking wall is used to position the second component 220, and the rear blocking wall is used to limit the first component 210. This can simultaneously and better ensure the positioning accuracy of the first component 210 and the second component 220, prevent them from shifting, ensure their precise docking, and improve extraction sealing. In addition, by using the first component 210 and the second component 220 to abut against the stop part 180 respectively and apply opposite forces to the blocking part 140, the overall strength of the blocking wall can be improved, and the blocking part 140 can be prevented from deforming under force.

[0151] Please refer to the following: Figure 8 , Figure 9In one embodiment, the first component 210 may include a capsule compartment positioning sleeve 211, a linkage mechanism 212 connected to the capsule compartment positioning sleeve 211, and a handle 213 connected to the linkage mechanism 212. The blocking wall has a first side that engages with the recess 120 and a second side that is opposite to the first side. The second side is provided with a locking part 143 that extends upward from the support part 150 to a predetermined height. The predetermined height is less than or equal to the height of the capsule compartment positioning sleeve 211.

[0152] In this embodiment, a locking portion 143 may be formed on the second side of the barrier wall away from the recess 120. This locking portion 143 is used to assist in positioning the capsule chamber positioning sleeve 211, preventing it from shifting, thereby ensuring precise correspondence with the capsule chamber 221 of the second component 220 and improving the extraction effect. Specifically, the locking portion 143 may be a stepped portion formed on the edge of the second side of the barrier 140, and the stepped surface of the stepped portion is used to contact the capsule chamber positioning sleeve 211.

[0153] Furthermore, the locking part 143 is integrally formed with the support part 150 and the barrier wall, eliminating the need for additional parts, simplifying the structure, reducing costs, and providing high overall strength, thus meeting the usage requirements during extraction. The locking part 143 has a predetermined height, which not only meets the aforementioned limiting requirements but also prevents the locking part 143 from interfering with capsule placement and extraction operations due to excessive height, while ensuring positioning effectiveness. The structural design is ingenious and compact. The specific value of this predetermined height varies depending on the specific form and structure of the extraction module 200, and this application does not impose a unique limitation on it.

[0154] Please refer to the following: Figure 1 , Figure 5 , Figure 7 , Figure 8 , Figure 9 , Figure 12 and Figure 13 In one embodiment, the first component 210 includes a capsule compartment positioning sleeve 211, a linkage mechanism 212 connected to the capsule compartment positioning sleeve 211, and a handle 213 connected to the linkage mechanism 212. The capsule compartment positioning sleeve 211 has a mounting surface facing the support portion 150, the mounting surface being parallel to the support surface 151 of the support portion 150. A first connecting portion 152 is provided on the support surface 151, and a second connecting portion 2110 is provided on the mounting surface. The first connecting portion 152 and the second connecting portion 2110 cooperate to form a connecting mechanism.

[0155] In this embodiment, the mounting surface of the capsule compartment positioning sleeve 211 of the first component 210 and the support surface 151 of the support part 150 adopt a surface contact fit. This surface contact fit structure can effectively increase the contact area between the two, so that the support surface 151 can provide uniform and reliable support for the first component 210. After the first component 210 is fixed on the front frame 110, the support surface 151 can provide reliable support for the first component 210. At the same time, the two are fixed by the above-mentioned connection mechanism, thus forming a double protection structure to better adapt to the force requirements during the extraction process. Specifically, during the extraction operation, the operator needs to apply a certain up and down pressing torque to the handle 213, and this operating torque will eventually be transmitted to the support surface 151 of the support part 150. If the support of the support surface 151 is missing, or if the two adopt a non-surface contact mating method, the torque on the first component 210 during the extraction process cannot be effectively decomposed, resulting in a significant decrease in its installation and fixing reliability. After long-term stress, it is very easy to loosen, shift, or even fail structurally, affecting the normal operation of the extraction module 200.

[0156] The mounting surface of the capsule compartment positioning sleeve 211 of the first component 210 is parallel to the support surface 151 of the support part 150, which ensures that the capsule compartment positioning sleeve 211 is installed horizontally, thereby making it accurately correspond to the capsule compartment 221 (vertically extended) of the second component 220, ensuring the correct placement posture of the capsule and facilitating puncture by the puncture mechanism; the first connecting part 152 and the second connecting part 2110 cooperate to achieve a stable connection between the capsule compartment positioning sleeve 211 and the support part 150, avoiding displacement, and facilitating disassembly and maintenance; the linkage mechanism 212 cooperates with the handle 213 to provide a transmission basis for manually controlling the puncture mechanism, eliminating the need for electric components, simplifying the structure and reducing the failure rate.

[0157] Overall, the support surface 151 of the support part 150 provides a precise installation reference surface for the capsule chamber positioning sleeve 211. The parallel arrangement of the installation surface and the support surface 151 further ensures the accurate installation posture of the capsule chamber positioning sleeve 211. The coordinated cooperation of the first connecting part 152, the second connecting part 2110 and the stop part 180 forms a protective structure with multiple superimposed support, limiting and fixing, which can completely prevent the capsule chamber positioning sleeve 211 from shifting or loosening during the extraction operation. Furthermore, the organic coordination of the capsule chamber positioning sleeve 211 with the linkage mechanism 212 and the handle 213 realizes the integrated function of capsule positioning, power transmission and manual operation, effectively ensuring the smoothness, stability and reliability of the extraction action, and ensuring that the equipment can complete the extraction operation stably for a long time.

[0158] Please refer to the following: Figure 8 , Figure 9 and Figure 13In one embodiment, the first connecting part 152 includes a plurality of connecting posts spaced apart on the support surface 151, each connecting post having a first connecting hole. The second connecting part 2110 includes a plurality of lugs, each lug having a second connecting hole. The first connecting hole and the second connecting hole are connected by screws.

[0159] In this embodiment, the first connecting part 152 may include multiple spaced-apart connecting posts, and the second connecting part 2110 may include multiple spaced-apart lugs. The multiple connecting posts and lugs are spaced and matched, resulting in a more stable connection and more even stress distribution, avoiding loosening caused by a single connection point. The screw connection method is a detachable connection method, facilitating subsequent disassembly, maintenance, and replacement of the capsule compartment positioning sleeve 211. Simultaneously, the screw connection method offers high precision, ensuring accurate installation. The structures used for the connecting posts and lugs are easy to injection mold, thereby reducing processing costs while ensuring structural strength.

[0160] In one embodiment, the second component 220 includes a capsule compartment 221 and a support frame 222, wherein the capsule compartment 221 and the support frame 222 are assembled integrally or separately.

[0161] In this embodiment, the capsule compartment 221 is used to hold capsules, and the support frame 222 is used to provide support for the capsules. The support frame 222 and the blocking part 140 are positioned to improve the stability and positioning accuracy of the capsules. When the capsule compartment 221 and the support frame 222 are integrally set, it is convenient for processing and assembly, reduces costs, and prevents the extract in the capsule from leaking out through the gap between the two. When the capsule compartment 221 and the support frame 222 are separately set, it is convenient to replace the capsule compartment 221 individually, thereby adapting to capsules of different sizes; it is also convenient for individual cleaning.

[0162] In one embodiment, after the second component 220 is inserted into the frame 100, the capsule compartment 221 extends in the vertical direction, and the opening 130 of the capsule compartment 221 faces upward.

[0163] In this embodiment, the capsule compartment 221 extends vertically with the opening 130 facing upwards, which can be adapted to the user's operating habits. The user can directly insert the capsule from above, making the operation convenient. The capsule falls into the bottom of the capsule compartment 221 by gravity, achieving automatic positioning and avoiding the capsule being placed crookedly, ensuring that the piercing mechanism accurately pierces the capsule. The vertically extending capsule compartment 221 does not occupy additional lateral space, making the frame 100 structure more compact and adapting to the space requirements of embedded devices. In addition, the upward-facing opening 130 facilitates the removal of the capsule and also makes it easy to clean the residue inside the capsule compartment 221.

[0164] Please see Figure 3 , Figure 6 , Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, in one embodiment, the opening 130 may include a first opening 131 and a second opening 132. The first opening 131 is used for the support frame 222 to extend into the frame 100, and the second opening 132 is used to provide clearance space for the capsule compartment 221 when the support frame 222 extends into the frame 100.

[0165] In this embodiment, the opening 130 may include a first opening 131 and a second opening 132, wherein the first opening 131 and the second opening 132 are interconnected, forming a through opening 130 in space.

[0166] In use, the user only needs to align the opening 130 to simultaneously insert the support frame 222 and the capsule compartment 221 (i.e., insert the second component 220), without having to align the two separate openings 130 separately, greatly improving assembly convenience and avoiding misalignment. The processing technology of the through opening 130 is simpler and can reduce processing costs; at the same time, a transition structure (such as an arc-shaped transition structure) can be formed at the junction of the first opening 131 and the second opening 132. This transition structure can improve the strength of the structure and also avoid bumps and scratches caused by the sharp edges of the opening 130, thus improving safety during use.

[0167] In one embodiment, the plane containing the first opening 131 is parallel to the outer surface of the front frame 110, and the plane containing the second opening 132 is perpendicular to the outer surface of the front frame 110.

[0168] In this embodiment, the plane where the first opening 131 is located is parallel to the outer surface of the front frame 110, ensuring that the support frame 222 extends in the front-back direction (consistent with the user's operating direction) and matches the positioning direction of the blocking part 140, thereby improving the assembly accuracy and smoothness of the support frame 222.

[0169] The plane containing the second opening 132 is perpendicular to the outer surface of the front frame 110 and matches the vertical extension direction of the capsule compartment 221, ensuring that the capsule compartment 221 can be smoothly accommodated in the second opening 132 without interference, while ensuring the vertical posture of the capsule compartment 221, which facilitates capsule insertion and puncture.

[0170] Overall, the first opening 131 and the second opening 132 work together to ensure that the second component 220 is installed with accurate posture and without interference. In addition, the plane direction of the first opening 131 and the second opening 132 matches the concave direction of the recess 120, which can further optimize the space utilization of the recess 120 and ensure the flatness of the appearance.

[0171] In one embodiment, the blocking portion 140 forms at least a portion of the edge of the first opening 131.

[0172] In this embodiment, the blocking part 140 is integrally formed with at least a portion of the edge of the first opening 131, eliminating the need for separate processing of the edge of the opening 130 and the blocking part 140, thus simplifying the processing steps and reducing costs. In particular, when the two are integrally formed, the relative positional accuracy is maximized, avoiding positional deviations between the blocking part 140 and the edge of the first opening 131 caused by assembly errors. This ensures that when the support frame 222 extends through the first opening 131, it can accurately abut and be positioned with the blocking part 140, improving positioning accuracy. The blocking part 140 forms the edge of the opening 130, which also strengthens the structural strength of the edge of the opening 130, preventing deformation of the edge of the opening 130 under stress.

[0173] The blocking part 140 is integrally formed with the first opening 131, forming an integrated system of positioning structure and edge of opening 130 at the recess 120. It provides positioning for the support frame 222 and also provides an insertion channel for the support frame 222. It works in conjunction with the support frame 222 and positioning part of the second component 220 to achieve the integration of channel and positioning functions, improving assembly convenience and positioning accuracy. At the same time, it does not occupy extra space and is highly compatible with the compact layout of the recess 120.

[0174] Please see Figure 2 As shown, in one embodiment, the extraction module 200 may further include a movable handle 213, the handle 213 including an operating part 2131 and a connecting rod 2132, the operating part 2131 being located outside the frame 100, the connecting rod 2132 passing through the front frame 110 and extending into the frame 100 to connect with the first component 210, the handle 213 being used to drive the puncturing mechanism located on the first component 210 to puncture the capsule placed in the second component 220.

[0175] In this embodiment, the first component 210 may include a piercing mechanism connected to a linkage mechanism. When the user operates the handle 213, the linkage mechanism moves the piercing mechanism closer to the capsule, thereby piercing the capsule placed inside the second component 220. The piercing mechanism may include a needle in its central part. This needle may be a hollow tube structure that communicates with the water purification module. After the piercing mechanism pierces the capsule, purified water supplied by the water purification module can flow into the capsule through the needle for extraction.

[0176] In this embodiment, a manual handle 213 is used to control the piercing mechanism, eliminating the need for motors, circuits, or other electric components. This results in a simple structure, low cost, low failure rate, and suitability for the compact space of embedded devices. The operating part 2131 is located outside the frame 100, facilitating manual operation (pressing, rotating) by the user, making it labor-saving and convenient.

[0177] In one embodiment, the front frame 110 is provided with a long strip-shaped first through hole 171 arranged in the vertical direction, and the connecting rod 2132 is located in the first through hole 171.

[0178] In this embodiment, the elongated first through hole 171 provides a channel for the connecting rod 2132 to move up and down, matching the stroke of the handle 213 driving the puncture mechanism to move up and down, ensuring that the puncture mechanism can completely puncture the capsule. The first through hole 171 is set in the up and down direction, restricting the movement direction of the connecting rod 2132 (it can only move up and down), avoiding puncture deviation and equipment failure caused by the misalignment of the connecting rod 2132.

[0179] In one embodiment, the first through hole 171 is spatially located above the recess 120.

[0180] In this embodiment, the first through hole 171 can be located above the recess 120. This avoids interference between the first through hole 171 and components such as the blocking part 140, the support part 150, and the second component 220 within the recess 120, ensuring that the components within the recess 120 are compactly arranged and do not interfere with each other, thus improving the utilization rate of the internal space of the frame 100. When the first through hole 171 is located above the recess 120, since the position of the handle 213 operating part 2131 is determined based on the first through hole 171, the handle 213 operating part 2131 is located at the first through hole 171. When used for operation, it can adapt to the user's operating habits and improve operating comfort.

[0181] In one embodiment, the embedded water purifier further includes a decorative panel 114 located on the front frame 110. The decorative panel 114 has a window at a position corresponding to the recess 120. The decorative panel 114 has a second through hole 172 above the window. The second through hole 172 extends downward from the upper edge of the decorative panel 114 by a predetermined length. The projection of the second through hole 172 toward the first through hole 171 can at least partially cover the first through hole 171.

[0182] In this embodiment, the embedded water purifier may further include a decorative panel 114 located on the front frame 110. The decorative panel 114 may be an injection molded part or a thin metal plate with a predetermined thickness. The decorative panel 114 is used to cover the holes and gaps of the front frame 110, which can improve the overall integrity and aesthetics of the machine.

[0183] The decorative panel 114 is provided with a window corresponding to the recess 120 to avoid the second component 220. This ensures that the second component 220 can be exposed through the window after it is installed, without affecting the user's capsule insertion or operation of the second component 220, and without damaging the integrity of the decorative panel 114.

[0184] The window has a second through hole 172 at the top. The second through hole 172 can extend downward from the upper edge of the decorative panel 114 to form a long strip hole that runs through the upper edge. The overall processing technology is simpler. Compared with a closed through hole, it can avoid the appearance of burrs on the edges during processing. At the same time, during assembly, the decorative panel 114 can be first inserted into the connecting rod 2132 of the handle 213 from above, and then assembled with the front frame 110, which completely avoids interference between the decorative panel 114 and the connecting rod 2132.

[0185] The projection of the second through hole 172 at least partially covers the first through hole 171, ensuring that the connecting rod 2132 of the handle 213 can move smoothly in the second through hole 172 when it moves up and down, without interfering with the decorative panel 114, thus ensuring the normal operation of the handle 213. At the same time, it hides the first through hole 171, further improving the cleanliness of the appearance.

[0186] In addition, the second through hole 172 and the first through hole 171 can cooperate to form a constraint stroke on the handle 213 in the vertical direction, so that the handle 213 can move within the predetermined stroke, avoiding the handle 213 from puncturing the capsule due to exceeding the predetermined stroke, or avoiding the situation where the handle 213 fails to puncture the capsule due to not reaching the predetermined stroke.

[0187] In one embodiment, the embedded water purifier may further include a decorative panel 114 located on the front frame 110, and a decorative wall 115 is provided on the front surface of the second component 220. After the second component 220 is installed in the frame 100, the decorative panel 114 and the decorative wall 115 are flush.

[0188] In this embodiment, the decorative wall 115 is disposed on the front surface of the second component 220 and cooperates with the decorative panel 114 to further optimize the overall appearance and aesthetics of the front of the equipment, and avoid unevenness or gaps between the second component 220 and the decorative panel 114. When the decorative panel 114 is flush with the decorative wall 115, it can prevent dust and dirt from accumulating in the gaps, and improve the ease of cleaning the equipment.

[0189] Please refer to the following: Figure 3 , Figure 6 , Figure 10 , Figure 11 , Figure 14 and Figure 15In one embodiment, the second component 220 may include a capsule compartment 221 and a support frame 222. The opening 130 includes a first opening 131 and a second opening 132. The first opening 131 is used for the support frame 222 to extend into the frame 100, and the second opening 132 is used to provide clearance space for the capsule compartment 221 when the support frame 222 extends into the frame 100. The capsule compartment positioning sleeve 211 has a downwardly extending sidewall 2111 at a position corresponding to the second opening 132 from the mounting surface. The extended sidewall 2111 is inserted into the second opening 132, and the outer surface of the extended sidewall 2111 is fitted or clearance-fitted with the inner wall at the second opening 132.

[0190] In this embodiment, the specific composition of the second component 220 and the specific form of the opening 130 can be referred to the specific description of the above embodiments, and will not be repeated here.

[0191] The capsule positioning sleeve 211 has a downwardly extending sidewall 2111 at a position corresponding to the second opening 132. The extended sidewall 2111 is inserted into the second opening 132, and the outer surface of the extended sidewall 2111 is in contact with or gap-fitted with the inner wall of the second opening 132. On the one hand, it can form a circumferential precise limit between the capsule positioning sleeve 211 and the second component 220, effectively limiting the swaying and displacement of the second component 220 in the horizontal direction, ensuring the alignment accuracy of the capsule 221 and the puncture mechanism, and improving the stability and reliability of the extraction action. On the other hand, the extended sidewall 2111 can form a surrounding liquid barrier at the second opening 132, sealing the assembly gap, which can effectively prevent the high-temperature extraction liquid and water vapor generated during the extraction process from splashing or leaking out from the gap of the opening 130, avoiding liquid from entering the machine body and contaminating the electrical components. Meanwhile, the fit / gap fit structure can also serve as an assembly guide, enabling the second component 220 to be automatically aligned when it is installed, reducing assembly difficulty, avoiding jamming, and further improving assembly efficiency and fit accuracy.

[0192] Specifically, the extended sidewall 2111 is annular, and the inner surface shape of the extended sidewall 2111 is similar to the outer sidewall shape of the capsule compartment 221 of the second component 220. Thus, when the capsule compartment 221 of the second component 220 is installed in the extended sidewall 2111, the extended sidewall 2111 can be used to guide and limit the capsule compartment 221 at the same time.

[0193] The height of the extended sidewall 2111 is less than or equal to the thickness of the support portion 150. This avoids the extended sidewall 2111 from protruding downwards from the bottom surface of the support portion 150. In addition to satisfying aesthetic requirements, it also avoids interference with the capsule compartment 221 in the second component 220 due to the excessive length of the extended sidewall 2111, ensuring that the capsule compartment 221 can be installed in place.
