Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of water dispenser technology, specifically a portable multi-functional water dispenser. Background Technology
[0002] Portable water dispensers are increasingly being used in various daily and special scenarios, such as outdoor travel, business trips, and small homes, due to their flexible and convenient features. They have become an important device to meet people's immediate drinking water needs.
[0003] Chinese invention patent CN111134534B discloses a portable instant hot water dispenser structure. By placing the water inlet component at the bottom of the unit and rotating it with a pivot at the bottom, the water bottle can be rotated out and then rotated back to be hidden at the bottom of the internal cavity. This reduces the overall height to prevent tipping, facilitates carrying, prevents dust and bacteria contamination of the water inlet, and improves drinking water safety and hygiene. However, this portable water dispenser uses an integrated, fixed structure design, integrating all internal functional components into a single, non-separable unit. Once formed, the device's size and shape are fixed, making it impossible to disassemble and store. It occupies a significant amount of space when carried outdoors, and its portability cannot meet the requirements of lightweight use scenarios such as outdoor activities and commuting. Furthermore, the dispenser's configuration is mostly factory-fixed, preventing users from adding additional functional components such as water purification, brewing, or deep filtration according to actual needs. The device has limited functionality and expandability, making it difficult to meet the needs of multiple usage scenarios.
[0004] Therefore, this application provides a portable multi-functional water dispenser to solve the above problems. Summary of the Invention
[0005] This application provides a portable multi-functional water dispenser, which aims to solve the problems mentioned in the background art regarding existing portable instant hot water dispensers, such as the integrated structure that cannot be disassembled, inconvenient storage and carrying, poor lightweight adaptability, fixed functional configuration, lack of expansion interfaces, insufficient expandability, and inability to meet the flexible use in multiple scenarios.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this application provides the following technical solution: a portable multi-functional water dispenser, including... A water outlet module, comprising a top cover, a control module disposed within the top cover, and a water outlet assembly disposed on the top cover; A water storage module, comprising a water storage tank disposed below the top cover, water outlet components disposed on the water storage tank, and a water inlet component for conveying the water after heat and cold treatment to the water outlet component. The functional module includes a base located below the water storage tank, a pumping component located inside the base and connected to the water outlet and water inlet components for drawing water from the water storage tank and transporting it to the water inlet components, a temperature sensor fixedly located inside the base for detecting the temperature of the water drawn by the pumping component, and a temperature control actuator fixedly located inside the base for performing hot and cold treatment on the water drawn by the pumping component. The water storage tank is fastened to the base. The contact structure includes a female insert plate fixedly disposed on the top cover and the bottom of the water tank, and a male insert plate fixedly disposed on the top of the water tank and the base for plugging into and making contact with the corresponding female insert plate. Both the female insert plate and the male insert plate are electrically connected to the control module. The temperature sensor is connected to the input terminal of the control module, and the water pumping assembly and temperature control actuator are both connected to the output terminal of the control module. By adopting a modular layout of water outlet module, water storage module, functional module and contact structure, and relying on the alignment and contact conduction structure of the female and male sockets in the contact structure, on the one hand, the control module can uniformly collect temperature sensor signals and regulate the water pumping assembly and temperature control actuator to complete water extraction, temperature control processing and directional delivery, ensuring the coordinated operation of the water circuit and circuit of the whole machine. On the other hand, the modular split design with standardized contact docking can realize independent disassembly and assembly, quick replacement and individual maintenance of each module, while providing a standardized interface for functional expansion, improving the portability, maintainability and application adaptability of the water dispenser.
[0007] Preferably, in order to realize touch control and visual status feedback of the water dispenser, the control module includes a PCB circuit board fixedly installed inside the top cover and a control panel fixedly installed on the top of the top cover and electrically connected to the PCB circuit board for touch operation and working status display; the PCB circuit board serves as the core control carrier, responsible for signal processing, instruction calculation and drive output, and the control panel is electrically connected to the PCB circuit board to realize touch instruction input and working status display, which is convenient for user operation and observation.
[0008] Preferably, in order to achieve directional flow and sealed output of treated water within the water outlet module, the water outlet assembly includes a water outlet and a water inlet fixedly connected to both sides of the bottom of the top cover, and a flow guiding hose disposed within the top cover. The two ends of the flow guiding hose are fixedly connected to the water outlet and the water inlet, respectively. The water outlet and the water inlet are connected by the flow guiding hose to form a closed flow path. The water inlet receives water from the water storage module, which is then guided by the flow guiding hose and discharged directionally from the water outlet, preventing water leakage and turbulence. This ensures smooth water flow, a sealed and leak-free environment, and improves the stability and cleanliness of the output water.
[0009] Preferably, to enable the connection and disconnection between the water storage tank and the functional module, the water outlet assembly includes a water outlet fixedly disposed on one side of the bottom of the water storage tank, a perforated plate slidably disposed at the end of the water outlet away from the water storage tank, a support shaft fixedly connected within the perforated plate and located within the water outlet, a stainless steel spring sleeved on the support shaft, and a sealing plug fixedly disposed at the end of the support shaft away from the perforated plate for sealing the end of the water outlet near the water storage tank. The two ends of the stainless steel spring are fixedly connected to the support shaft and the perforated plate, respectively; the water outlet assembly is used for pumping... The component generates suction, which moves the perforated plate, support shaft, and sealing plug toward the end of the outlet away from the water tank, thus connecting the water tank and the pumping assembly. When no water is being pumped, the stainless steel spring's elasticity allows the perforated plate, support shaft, and sealing plug to move toward the end of the outlet closer to the water tank, sealing the outlet at that end. This achieves adaptive opening and closing and sealing of the outlet, automatically stopping water leakage when the module is separated and conducting as needed during operation. It also has an impurity interception function, improving the sealing performance of the module during disassembly and assembly and the cleanliness of the water system.
[0010] Preferably, in order to realize the transportation of water after hot and cold treatment, the water inlet assembly includes a flow channel fixedly installed in the water storage tank on the side away from the outlet, a connection port one fixedly installed at the bottom of the water storage tank and communicating with the bottom of the flow channel, and a connection port two fixedly connected to the top of the water storage tank and communicating with the top of the flow channel. The water inlet is inserted into the connection port two. The treated water from the functional module is received through the connection port one, guided through the flow channel to the connection port two, and then connected to the water inlet of the outlet assembly. This forms an independent and sealed return flow path, avoiding mixing with the raw water in the water storage tank, realizing the separate transportation of treated water and raw water, and ensuring the module docking accuracy and water flow efficiency.
[0011] Preferably, in order to facilitate the filling of the water tank, a cover is fastened to the side of the water tank away from the flow channel; the cover and the water tank are connected by a fastening and detachable method, and water can be directly added and the inner wall residue can be cleaned after opening, and a closed water storage space is formed after closing, which isolates external dust, mosquitoes and other pollutants, improves the convenience of filling and maintaining the water tank, and enhances the water storage airtightness and hygiene.
[0012] Preferably, to extract water from the water storage tank, the pumping assembly includes a connection port three fixedly disposed on one side of the top of the base, a water outlet pipe fixedly disposed inside the base and communicating with the bottom of the connection port three, a water pump fixedly installed inside the base and fixedly connected to the water outlet pipe away from the connection port three, and a connection port four fixedly disposed on the top of the base away from the connection port three and connected to the end of the water pump away from the connection port three. The water outlet is inserted into the connection port three, the connection port one is inserted into the connection port four, the temperature sensor is fixedly connected to the water outlet pipe, and the water pump is connected to the output terminal of the control module. Through the connection port three and the water outlet of the pumping assembly, the water pump draws water from the water storage tank under negative pressure, which is then transported through the water outlet pipe to the connection port four and enters the water inlet assembly, ensuring the delivery of water flow. At the same time, the temperature sensor can detect the temperature of the water flowing into the water outlet pipe in real time, facilitating subsequent precise heating and cooling treatment.
[0013] Preferably, in order to achieve the heating and cooling of the water, the temperature control actuator is a heater or a cooler, and the two ends of the temperature control actuator are respectively connected to the end of the water pump away from the connection port and the connection port. The water pumped by the water pump flows through the internal flow channel of the temperature control actuator. The heater can heat the water and the cooler can cool the water, realizing modular switching of water heating and cooling functions, improving the equipment's adaptability to different scenarios and the flexibility of functional expansion.
[0014] Preferably, to expand the functionality of the water dispenser, the portable multi-functional water dispenser further includes an additional module between the water dispensing module and the water storage module, or between the water storage module and the functional module. This additional module includes, but is not limited to, a water purification layer module and a tea brewing compartment module. The additional module is electrically connected to the water dispensing module, water storage module, or functional module via a female and male connector. By using the standardized docking structure of the female and male connectors, the additional module achieves plug-and-play electrical connection and signal compatibility, adapting to different functional units such as the water purification layer module and the tea brewing compartment module. This retains the versatility of the main structure while enabling unlimited functional expansion, thus broadening the application range of the device.
[0015] This portable multi-functional water dispenser adopts a modular layout consisting of a water dispensing module, a water storage module, a functional module, and a contact structure. Relying on the alignment and connection of the female and male sockets in the contact structure, each module can be independently disassembled, quickly replaced, and individually maintained. At the same time, it provides a standardized interface for functional expansion, improving the water dispenser's portability, maintainability, and application adaptability.
[0016] This portable multi-functional water dispenser uses a standardized docking structure for female and male sockets via an add-on module to achieve plug-and-play electrical connection and signal compatibility. It can be adapted to different functional units such as water purification modules and tea brewing compartments, thus maintaining the universality of the main structure while enabling unlimited functional expansion and increasing the application range of the equipment.

[0019] The technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.
[0020] Example 1 This embodiment provides a portable multi-functional water dispenser, such as... Figures 1-9 As shown, the portable multi-functional water dispenser includes a water outlet module 1, which includes a top cover 11, a control module 12 disposed within the top cover 11, and a water outlet assembly 13 disposed on the top cover 11; a water storage module 2, which includes a water storage tank 21 disposed below the top cover 11, a water outlet assembly 22 disposed on the water storage tank 21, and a water inlet assembly 23 for conveying water after hot and cold treatment to the water outlet assembly 13; and a functional module 3, which includes a base 31 disposed below the water storage tank 21, a water pumping assembly 32 disposed within the base 31 and connected to the water outlet assembly 22 and the water inlet assembly 23 for drawing water from the water storage tank 21 and conveying it to the water inlet assembly 23, and a water pumping assembly 32 fixedly disposed on the base 31. The system includes a temperature sensor 33 for detecting the temperature of the water pumped by the pumping assembly 32, and a temperature control actuator 34 fixedly installed in the base 31 for heating and cooling the water pumped by the pumping assembly 32. The water storage tank 21 is fastened to the base 31. The system also includes a contact structure 4, which includes a female insert plate 41 fixedly installed on the top cover 11 and the bottom of the water storage tank 21, and a male insert plate 42 fixedly installed on the top of the water storage tank 21 and the base 31 for connecting and communicating with the corresponding female insert plate 41. Both the female insert plate 41 and the male insert plate 42 are electrically connected to the control module 12. The temperature sensor 33 is connected to the input terminal of the control module 12, and the pumping assembly 32 and the temperature control actuator 34 are both connected to the output terminal of the control module 12.
[0021] To enable touch control and visual status feedback for the water dispenser, the control module 12 includes a PCB circuit board 122 fixedly installed inside the top cover 11 and a control panel 121 fixedly installed on the top of the top cover 11 and electrically connected to the PCB circuit board 122 for touch operation and working status display. The PCB circuit board 122 serves as the core control carrier, responsible for signal processing, instruction calculation and drive output. The control panel 121 is electrically connected to the PCB circuit board 122 to realize touch instruction input and working status display, which is convenient for users to operate and observe.
[0022] In use, the user first inputs operation commands such as power on, water dispensing, and temperature control mode selection through the control panel 121 on the top of the top cover 11 of the water outlet module 1. These touch commands are transmitted in real time to the PCB circuit board 122, which is electrically connected to the control panel 121. The PCB circuit board 122 performs signal parsing, logic operations, and control command generation. As the core carrier of the control module 12, the PCB circuit board 122 realizes cross-module transmission of circuit signals through the contact structure 4. The female socket 41 at the bottom of the top cover 11 and the male socket 42 at the top of the water storage tank 21 are aligned and connected. The female socket 41 at the bottom of the water storage tank 21 and the male socket 42 at the top of the base 31 are connected. The male connector 42 of the PCB is properly aligned and makes contact, and the female connector 41 and the male connector 42 together form the circuit transmission path of the whole machine, stably transmitting the control signal output by the PCB circuit board 122 to the corresponding execution component of the functional module 3. After the PCB circuit board 122 sends a start command to the water pumping assembly 32, the water pumping assembly 32 begins to generate suction force. This suction force acts on the water outlet assembly 22 of the water storage module 2, causing the raw water stored in the water storage tank 21 to flow out through the water outlet assembly 22 and into the water channel of the water pumping assembly 32. The temperature sensor 33, which is fixedly installed in the base 31, will collect the temperature of the water flowing through the water channel of the water pumping assembly 32 in real time. The analog water temperature signal is converted into an electrical signal and transmitted back to the input of the control module 12 via the contact structure 4. The PCB circuit board 122 receives and processes the water temperature data, compares it with the user-set temperature, and outputs a corresponding heating or cooling drive signal to the temperature control actuator 34. Upon receiving the control signal, the temperature control actuator 34 starts working, heating or cooling the water pumped by the pumping component 32 and flowing through its internal channels. The water after heating or cooling is then transported by the pumping component 32 to the inlet component 23 of the water storage module 2. The inlet component 23 then directs the temperature-controlled water to the outlet component 13 of the outlet module 1, where it is finally discharged. The outlet assembly 13 stably discharges water that meets the temperature requirements, completing a complete water intake process. During this process, the water storage tank 21 and the base 31 are connected by a snap-fit connection and the contact structure 4 is plug-in and plug-out conductive, which can realize the synchronous connection and disconnection of the water circuit and the circuit. The control panel 121 simultaneously displays information such as the current water temperature, working mode, and operating status, so that users can keep track of the working status of the whole machine in real time. The PCB circuit board 122 continuously collects the feedback signal of the temperature sensor 33 in a closed loop, and dynamically adjusts the working power of the temperature control actuator 34 and the operating status of the water pumping assembly 32 to ensure that the water temperature is accurately controllable and the water flow is continuous and stable.
[0023] Specifically, the outlet assembly 13 includes an outlet nozzle 131 and an inlet nozzle 132 that are fixedly connected to the bottom sides of the top cover 11, and a guide hose 133 disposed inside the top cover 11. The two ends of the guide hose 133 are fixedly connected to the outlet nozzle 131 and the inlet nozzle 132, respectively.
[0024] In use, when the water body after being treated by the hot and cold treatment of the functional module 3 is transported by the corresponding interface of the water storage module 2 and pushed into the inlet 132, the water body, under the action of internal water pressure and water flow thrust, enters the interior of the guide hose 133 fixedly connected to it along the flow channel of the inlet 132. The guide hose 133, relying on its own closed tube structure, directionally constrains and guides the water body to avoid the water body from spreading, flowing or leaking inside the top cover 11. The water body is transported in a completely sealed manner along the extension path of the guide hose 133 to the outlet 131 at the other end, and finally discharged outwards in a directional manner through the preset flow channel of the outlet 131, completing the complete transmission process of the treated water body from the module docking end to the external water outlet end.
[0025] Furthermore, the water outlet assembly 22 includes a water outlet 221 fixedly disposed on one side of the bottom of the water storage tank 21, a perforated plate 222 slidably disposed at the end of the water outlet 221 away from the water storage tank 21, a support shaft 223 fixedly connected inside the perforated plate 222 and located inside the water outlet 221, a stainless steel spring 224 sleeved on the support shaft 223, and a sealing plug 225 fixedly disposed at the end of the support shaft 223 away from the perforated plate 222 for sealing the end of the water outlet 221 near the water storage tank 21. The two ends of the stainless steel spring 224 are fixedly connected to the support shaft 223 and the perforated plate 222 respectively.
[0026] In the normal, non-operational state of the machine, the stainless steel spring 224, sleeved on the outside of the support shaft 223, is in a naturally extended, elastically reset state. Both ends of the stainless steel spring 224 are fixedly connected to the support shaft 223 and the perforated plate 222, respectively. Under the continuous action of the spring force, the stainless steel spring 224, through the perforated plate 222, drives the support shaft 223 to move towards the end of the outlet 221 closer to the water storage tank 21, until the sealing plug 225, fixed to the end of the support shaft 223 away from the perforated plate 222, tightly seals and completely blocks the port of the outlet 221 near the water storage tank 21. When the water inside the water storage tank 21 is blocked by the sealing plug 225, it cannot enter the water outlet 221, thus preventing water leakage during the separate storage and relocation of the water storage tank 21. At the same time, the perforated plate 222 blocks the end of the water outlet 221 away from the water storage tank 21 in this state, preventing external dust and impurities from entering the water outlet 221 and causing flow channel blockage. When the water storage tank 21 is fully assembled with the base 31 of the functional module 3, and the control module 12 drives the pumping assembly 32 to start working, the negative pressure suction generated by the pumping assembly 32 acts on the water outlet 221 away from the water storage tank 21. The perforated plate 222 at one end of the water tank 21 is pulled by suction force that overcomes the elastic force of the stainless steel spring 224, causing the perforated plate 222 to slide along the axial direction of the outlet 221 away from the water storage tank 21. The support shaft 223, which is fixedly connected to the perforated plate 222, moves synchronously in the same direction, thereby driving the sealing plug 225 to move synchronously away from the outlet 221 and closer to the port of the water storage tank 21, so that the port changes from a blocked state to a fully open state. The water inside the water storage tank 21 can flow smoothly into the outlet 221 through the port, and the water flows out through the through holes on the perforated plate 222 and enters the pumping unit. In the water flow channel of component 32, the perforated plate 222 simultaneously intercepts and filters particulate impurities in the water during the water flow process, preventing large particulate impurities from entering the subsequent water path and causing blockage of the water pump 323 and temperature control actuator 34. When the water pumping component 32 stops working and the negative pressure suction disappears, the stainless steel spring 224 restores its elastic deformation and resets. Through the elastic force, it pushes the perforated plate 222, support shaft 223 and sealing plug 225 back to their initial positions. The sealing plug 225 re-seals the end of the outlet 221 near the water storage tank 21, restoring the normal sealed and water-stopping state.
[0027] Furthermore, the water inlet assembly 23 includes a flow channel 232 fixedly installed in the water storage tank 21 on the side away from the outlet 221, a connection port 231 fixedly installed at the bottom of the water storage tank 21 and communicating with the bottom of the flow channel 232, and a connection port 233 fixedly connected to the top of the water storage tank 21 and communicating with the top of the flow channel 232. The water inlet 132 is inserted into the connection port 233.
[0028] After the water pumping component 32 and the temperature control actuator 34 in the functional module 3 complete the extraction, heating or cooling of the water, the water that meets the set temperature is directed to the connection port 231. Under the combined action of water flow pressure and water pump 323 thrust, the water flows upward from the connection port 231 into the connected flow channel 232. The flow channel 232, relying on its own independent and closed cavity structure, completely separates the temperature-controlled water from the untreated raw water in the water storage tank 21, avoiding the mixing of water at different temperatures and in different states, and ensuring the stability of the temperature and water quality of the output water. The water flows upward in the direction of cavity extension inside the flow channel 232, and after reaching the top of the flow channel 232, it enters the connected connection port 233. Then, through the sealed plug-in structure between the connection port 233 and the inlet 132, it is smoothly transported to the guide pipe inside the water outlet module 1, and finally flows to the water outlet component 13 to complete the discharge of water.
[0029] In addition, to facilitate the filling and sealing of the water tank 21, a cover 211 is fastened to the side of the water tank 21 away from the flow channel 232. The cover 211 is fastened to the water tank 21 and can be detachably connected. When opened, water can be directly added and the inner wall residue can be cleaned. When closed, it forms a closed water storage space, which isolates external dust, mosquitoes and other pollutants, improves the convenience of filling and maintaining the water tank 21, and enhances the water storage airtightness and hygiene.
[0030] Furthermore, the pumping assembly 32 includes a connection port 321 fixedly disposed on one side of the top of the base 31, a water outlet pipe 322 fixedly disposed inside the base 31 and communicating with the bottom of the connection port 321, a water pump 323 fixedly disposed inside the base 31 and fixedly connected to the water outlet pipe 322 away from the connection port 321, and a connection port 4 324 fixedly disposed on the top side of the base 31 away from the connection port 321 and connected to the end of the water pump 323 away from the connection port 321. The water outlet 221 is inserted into the connection port 321, the connection port 1 231 is inserted into the connection port 4 324, the temperature sensor 33 is fixedly connected to the water outlet pipe 322, and the water pump 323 is connected to the output end of the control module 12.
[0031] When the control module 12 outputs a start drive signal to the water pump 323, the water pump 323 is powered on and starts running, generating a directional negative pressure suction force inside. This suction force is transmitted through the water outlet pipe 322 and the connector 321 to the plugged-in water outlet 221, thereby opening the water outlet assembly 22. Under the combined action of negative pressure and gravity, the water inside the water storage tank 21 flows sequentially through the water outlet 221 and the connector 321 before entering the water outlet pipe 322. During the flow of water in the water outlet pipe 322, the fixedly installed temperature sensor 33 continuously contacts the water flow and collects real-time water temperature signals, converting the water temperature parameters into electrical signals and transmitting them back to the system. The data is transmitted to the control module 12, providing a data basis for the subsequent heating or cooling regulation of the temperature control actuator 34. After the water body has completed the temperature detection, it continues to be pressurized and transported by the water pump 323. It flows through the output end of the water pump 323 to the fourth connector 324, and then forms a conductive path with the first connector 231 through the fourth connector 324 to directionally transport the water body into the water inlet component 23. It is then transmitted upward to the water outlet module 1 to complete the final water discharge. When the control module 12 outputs a stop signal, the water pump 323 immediately stops running, the negative pressure suction disappears synchronously, the water outlet component 22 automatically resets and seals, and the water pumping process terminates.
[0032] It is worth noting that the temperature control actuator 34 is a heater or a cooler, and the two ends of the temperature control actuator 34 are connected to the end of the water pump 323 away from the connection port 321 and the connection port 324, respectively.
[0033] When the water pump 323 starts operating under the drive of the control module 12, it pumps the water from the water storage module 2 to its outlet at the end furthest from the connection port 321. Under the pumping pressure of the water pump 323, the water directly enters the internal flow channel of the temperature control actuator 34 connected to it. At this time, the control module 12 will determine and output the corresponding heating or cooling operation command based on the preset water temperature parameters and the detection signal transmitted back in real time by the temperature sensor 33. After receiving the corresponding electrical signal, the temperature control actuator 34 will operate as a heater if it is set to heating mode, and will heat the water flowing through its internal flow channel through its internal heating structure. The body continuously heats up. If set to cooling mode, it works as a cooler, continuously cooling the water flowing through its internal flow channel through the internal cooling structure. The water fills the internal flow channel of the temperature control actuator 34 throughout the process, making full contact with the heating or cooling surface, ensuring that the water is accurately adjusted to the target temperature during the process of flowing through the temperature control actuator 34. After completing the heating and cooling treatment, the water flows out from the end of the temperature control actuator 34 away from the water pump 323, directly into the connection port 4 324 connected to it, and then through the connection port 4 324 to the water inlet component 23 of the water storage module 2, and finally flows to the water outlet module 1 to complete the water discharge.
[0034] Example 2 Unlike Embodiment 1, in order to expand the functionality of the water dispenser, the portable multi-functional water dispenser also includes an additional module between the water dispensing module 1 and the water storage module 2 or between the water storage module 2 and the functional module 3. The additional module includes, but is not limited to, a water purification layer module and a tea brewing chamber module. The additional module is electrically connected to the water dispensing module 1, the water storage module 2, or the functional module 3 through a female socket 41 and a male socket 42.
[0035] When adding additional modules, the corresponding functional additional modules are placed between the water outlet module 1 and the water storage module 2, or between the water storage module 2 and the functional module 3, in the preset assembly positions. Using the matching female and male connectors 41 and 42 on the upper and lower end faces of the additional module, they are aligned and plugged into the corresponding male and female connectors 42 and 41 on the adjacent water outlet module 1, water storage module 2, or functional module 3. Through the contact and engagement of the female and male connectors 41 and 42, mechanical positioning and electrical connection are achieved between the additional module and the water outlet module 1, water storage module 2, or functional module 3. The connection structure of the female and male connectors 41 and 42 maintains the same electrical specifications as the original circuit interface of the entire machine, ensuring stable transmission of power supply signals and control commands from the control module 12 to the additional module. The working status signal of the additional module is transmitted back to the control module 12 for unified control. When the water purification layer module is selected as the additional module, the water will be deeply filtered and purified by the internal water filtration structure during the process of flowing through the additional module, thereby improving the quality of the output water. When the tea brewing chamber module is selected as the additional module, the water flow can pass through the tea leaves and other materials loaded in the chamber to complete the soaking and brewing, thereby realizing the tea brewing function. Different types of additional modules all use the same plug-in female socket 41 and plug-in male socket 42 docking form. There is no need to modify or replace the main structure of the water output module 1, water storage module 2, and functional module 3 to complete the assembly and electrical adaptation. When disassembling, the additional module only needs to be pulled away axially to separate the plug-in female socket 41 and plug-in male socket 42, which can be quickly removed, realizing the universality and flexibility of functional expansion.
[0036] It should be added that the water purification layer module includes a composite water filtration structure such as PP cotton and activated carbon, as well as a flow guide filter chamber, which can filter out impurities such as residual chlorine, silt, and fine suspended solids in the water. The tea brewing chamber module includes the chamber body and the tea leaves and other brewing materials filled in the soaking chamber. After being soaked and brewed, the tea flows out through the water passage at the bottom, realizing the tea preparation function.
