Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0002] This invention relates to the field of vehicle-mounted water dispenser technology, specifically to a water dispenser for a dual-supply folding center console. Background Technology
[0003] With the increasing popularity of automobiles and the upgrading of drinking water needs of drivers and passengers, in-vehicle water dispensers have gradually evolved from external portable types to integrated types in the armrest box. However, existing technologies still have obvious shortcomings in terms of space adaptability, structural flexibility, and safety of use, making it difficult to meet the core needs of modern automobiles for interior space optimization and functional integration.
[0004] Most existing integrated water dispensers in the armrest box use a fixed installation structure, which cannot be retracted after being embedded in the armrest box. When not in use, they still occupy a large amount of core space inside the armrest box, severely compressing the original storage function of the armrest box. This space conflict is particularly prominent in compact vehicles. Some external water dispensers require additional space between the center console or seats, disrupting the overall interior layout and easily interfering with the limbs of drivers and passengers or vehicle components, affecting driving safety.
[0005] A prior art patent (CN203138086U) describes a design where a lifting bracket is installed behind the center console of a vehicle and secured by screws on both sides. A turntable on top of the bracket is connected to the base of a water dispenser via screws. The water dispenser itself houses a vehicle inverter, whose input terminal (cigarette plug) is connected to the vehicle's cigarette lighter power supply, and its output terminal is connected to an instant water heater located on top of the dispenser. An outer cover connects to the dispenser body. This vehicle-mounted water dispenser, fixed to the center console, can rotate and be raised for convenient use, allowing people to drink hot water and prepare beverages inside the vehicle.
[0006] As existing devices are used, the shortcomings of this technology have gradually become apparent, mainly in the following aspects: First, existing in-vehicle water dispensers have complex structures, are not compact in layout, and take up a lot of space, making them inconvenient to fix to the center armrest box inside the vehicle, thus affecting their ease of use.
[0007] Secondly, the existing water dispensers in the armrest box have their outlets protruding outwards to improve the convenience of getting water, which results in the outlets taking up a lot of interior space and affecting convenience.
[0008] Third, existing in-vehicle water dispensers are limited by the water inlet interface when adding water. Using bottled water, due to the small water supply, requires frequent bottle replacement, making the operation cumbersome.
[0009] Fourth, existing vehicle-mounted water dispensers supply water either by connecting to bottled water via a hose, which means that when the bottled water is low, timely water supply cannot be provided, affecting the convenience of use.
[0010] As can be seen from the above, the existing technology obviously has inconveniences and defects in practical use, so it is necessary to improve it. Summary of the Invention
[0012] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this invention provides a dual-supply folding center console water dispenser. This addresses the problems of traditional water dispensers where the water outlet protrudes outwards for easier water access, resulting in a large space occupied and reduced convenience; the limitations of the inlet interface when using bottled water, leading to frequent bottle replacements due to limited supply; and the inconvenience of using a hose to connect to bottled water containers, which prevents timely water supply when the containers are low.
[0013] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution.
[0014] A dual-supply folding central armrest water dispenser includes a mounting housing, the top of which is provided with a water inlet connection seat. The mounting housing contains a water dispenser body that connects to the water inlet connector. The water inlet connector can be detachably connected to a bottled water connector or a barrelled water connector. The top of the mounting housing is provided with a storage slot, and a water outlet component connected to the main body of the water dispenser is provided in the storage slot.

[0036] As an optimized solution, the shape positioning component includes an arc-shaped surface formed on one side of the lower end of the two hinge protruding side plates. The virtual circle formed by the arc-shaped surface is coaxially arranged with the damping rotation shaft.

[0037] As an optimized solution, the shape positioning component includes a positioning protrusion fixed to the lower end of the second support arm. In use, the positioning protrusion abuts against the side wall of the first support arm.
[0038] As an optimized solution, the shape positioning component includes a spring positioning bead fixed to the two side walls of the hinge protrusion. Two support arm positioning grooves are provided on the side wall of one of the hinge protrusion side plates around its hinge center.

One end of the fourth flexible hose is connected to the water outlet, and the other end passes through the through holes in sequence through the internal cavities of the third, second, and first support arms and the connecting seat, and extends into the interior of the mounting shell.
[0042] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are: By fixing the water inlet connector to the mounting housing, when bottled water is needed, simply tighten the threaded end of the bottled water bottle to the threaded connector, insert the bottled water connector into the insertion port, and fix it on the water inlet connector for use. This is convenient and quick, and bottled water can be used for short-term water supply. When it is necessary to connect to bottled water, remove the bottled water connector and insert the bottled water connector into the insertion port to fix it on the water inlet connector. Then extend the other end of the hose into the bottled water for use. It is convenient and quick, and can make it possible to use bottled water for water supply in a certain state. The bottom cylindrical insert section is inserted into the sealing sleeve inside the water inlet connector and is press-fitted with the sealing sleeve to achieve a sealing and fixing effect. Two water supply methods can be selected according to actual use, which is convenient and quick, allowing for switching between them based on the usage scenario. The water dispenser has a simple structure. By setting up a mounting shell, the structure of the water dispenser can be set inside the mounting shell, making the structure more compact and the installation area more orderly and tidy. In addition, the external water outlet component can be folded up, so that it can be hidden in the storage compartment when not in use and extended to the outside when in use. It is especially suitable for use in small spaces such as armrest boxes, which is convenient and quick. By setting a storage slot inside the mounting housing, when water needs to be collected, the first support arm can be pulled out from the storage slot, thereby driving the second and third support arms to swing to the use state. The position in the use state is positioned by the shape positioning component. When not in use, the first, second, and third support arms can be stored in the storage slots for concealment. The various outriggers are hinged together by damping pivots, which enables automatic positioning in any shape and position by utilizing their damping characteristics. Spring positioning beads and corresponding positioning grooves are respectively installed between support arm 2 and support arm 1, and between support arm 3 and support arm 2. The main purpose is to make a "click" sound when the spring positioning bead is stuck in the positioning groove during use, indicating that the operation is in place. Secondly, it serves a positioning function, because the damping shaft alone can serve a positioning function. Attached Figure Description
