Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of water vending machine technology, and in particular to a temperature control device for a water vending machine. Background Technology

[0002] Water vending machines, as a type of self-service drinking water equipment, have been widely used in public places and residential communities in recent years. They not only provide users with convenient drinking water services but also achieve effective allocation and utilization of water resources through intelligent management. However, in northern winters, water vending machines are prone to freezing due to low temperatures, affecting their normal operation.

[0003] To address this issue, the industry generally employs heating and insulation measures. Most water purifiers sold today have built-in heating devices covered with insulation material to increase the internal temperature and prevent freezing. For energy conservation, users often install timer switches to intermittently turn on the heating. This allows the heating function to be activated only when needed, and deactivated when not required, based on temperature changes and usage patterns. This method achieves energy conservation and consumption reduction to a certain extent.

[0004] However, for users of multiple water dispensers, the on-site configuration of timer switches incurs high costs in terms of time and manpower. Furthermore, in some areas with large temperature differences between day and night, the heating equipment may overwork or fail to start in time, leading to energy waste or the risk of freezing. In some areas with extremely low temperatures, a single heating device is insufficient, requiring the replacement with a higher-powered device, increasing user costs. Additionally, the heating method lacks flexibility and cannot automatically adjust to different temperature conditions. Summary of the Invention

[0038] Exemplary embodiments will now be described more fully with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, these exemplary embodiments can be implemented in many forms and should not be construed as limited to the examples set forth herein; rather, these embodiments are provided so that the embodiments of the invention will be more comprehensive and complete, and will fully convey the concept of the exemplary embodiments to those skilled in the art. The described features, mechanisms, or characteristics may be combined in any suitable manner in one or more embodiments. In the following description, numerous specific details are provided to give a full understanding of how embodiments of the invention are carried out.

[0039] Water vending machines, as a type of self-service drinking water equipment, have been widely used in public places and residential communities in recent years. However, in northern winters, water vending machines are prone to freezing due to low temperatures, affecting their normal operation. To address this issue, the industry generally adopts heating and insulation measures. Typically, water vending machines have built-in heating devices and use timers to activate the heating function when needed and deactivate it when not needed, based on temperature changes and usage. However, for users with multiple water vending machines, configuring on-site timers incurs high costs in terms of both time and manpower. Furthermore, in some areas with large diurnal temperature variations, the heating equipment may overwork or fail to start in time, leading to energy waste or the risk of freezing. In some areas with extremely low temperatures, a single heating device is insufficient, requiring the replacement with a higher-powered device, increasing user costs. Additionally, the heating method lacks flexibility and cannot automatically adjust to different temperature conditions.

[0040] To address the aforementioned problems, this application provides a water vending machine temperature control device, referring to... Figure 1 As shown, the system includes: a water vending machine mainboard 10, a main temperature controller 20, an auxiliary temperature controller 30, and a first temperature sensor 40; the main temperature controller 20, the auxiliary temperature controller 30, and the first temperature sensor 40 are all electrically connected to the water vending machine mainboard 10. The main temperature controller 20 and the first temperature sensor 40 are both located inside the water vending machine casing, while the auxiliary temperature controller is located outside the water vending machine pipes.

[0041] The first temperature sensor is configured to: acquire the internal temperature of the water vending machine casing in real time, obtain the internal temperature data of the casing, and send the internal temperature data of the casing to the water vending machine mainboard 10; the water vending machine mainboard 10 is configured to: receive the internal temperature data of the casing, compare the internal temperature data of the casing with the preset opening temperature and the preset closing temperature; when the internal temperature data of the casing is lower than the preset opening temperature, send an opening main temperature control signal to the main temperature controller 20 and start timing; within ten minutes, when the internal temperature of the casing rises to the preset closing temperature, send a closing main temperature control signal to the main temperature controller 20; if the internal temperature of the casing is still lower than the preset closing temperature after ten minutes, send an opening auxiliary temperature control signal to the auxiliary temperature controller 30; when the internal temperature of the casing rises to the preset closing temperature, send a closing main temperature control signal to the main temperature controller 20 and a closing auxiliary temperature control signal to the auxiliary temperature controller 30.

[0042] The main temperature controller 20 is configured to start heating when it receives a signal to turn on the main temperature controller and to stop heating when it receives a signal to turn off the main temperature controller; the auxiliary temperature controller 30 is configured to start heating when it receives a signal to turn on the auxiliary temperature controller and to stop heating when it receives a signal to turn off the auxiliary temperature controller.

[0043] Specifically, in this embodiment, the water vending machine motherboard 10 is responsible for receiving, processing, and sending instructions. The motherboard 10 receives internal temperature data from the first temperature sensor 40, processes this data, and compares it with preset on / off temperatures. Based on the comparison results, the motherboard 10 sends corresponding heating or stopping signals to the main temperature controller 20 and the auxiliary temperature controller 30, while simultaneously monitoring the heating process time to ensure that the required temperature range is reached within ten minutes.

[0044] The main temperature controller 20 is located inside the water vending machine's casing and is responsible for the primary heating task. When it receives an activation signal from the main board of the water vending machine, the main temperature controller 20 begins heating to raise the temperature inside the casing. When the internal temperature of the casing reaches the preset shutdown temperature, or when it receives a shutdown signal, the main temperature controller 20 stops heating to avoid energy waste and the risk of overheating.

[0045] The auxiliary temperature controller 30 is located outside the water vending machine's piping, serving as a supplement to the main temperature controller 20. It provides additional heating under extreme low-temperature conditions or when the main temperature controller cannot raise the internal temperature of the machine in time. When the main temperature controller 20 fails to raise the internal temperature of the machine to the preset shut-off temperature within ten minutes, the water vending machine's mainboard 10 sends an activation signal to the auxiliary temperature controller 30, which then begins heating to accelerate the temperature rise process. Once the internal temperature of the machine reaches the preset shut-off temperature, the auxiliary temperature controller 30 also receives a shut-off signal and stops heating.

[0046] The first temperature sensor 40 is located inside the water vending machine's casing and is responsible for acquiring real-time temperature data within the casing and sending this data to the water vending machine's mainboard 10. The real-time nature of the first temperature sensor 40 ensures that the water vending machine's mainboard 10 can accurately determine the internal temperature of the casing, thereby making the correct decision to heat or stop heating.

[0047] The water vending machine temperature control device of this application achieves automated control, avoiding the tedious process of manually configuring timer switches on-site and reducing labor costs. Through the coordinated operation of the main temperature controller 20 and the auxiliary temperature controller 30, and the intelligent judgment of the water vending machine's main board 10, it ensures that the heating equipment is turned on when needed and turned off when not needed, avoiding energy waste. Simultaneously, by monitoring the temperature in real time and adjusting the heating strategy, it avoids energy waste or the risk of icing caused by overworking the heating equipment or failure to start in time.

[0048] Under extreme low-temperature conditions, the addition of auxiliary temperature control 30 ensures that even if the effect of a single heating device is insufficient, the internal temperature of the machine can be quickly increased through additional heating, avoiding equipment failure caused by extremely low temperatures. Through the intelligent judgment of the water vending machine's mainboard 10, the heating strategy can be automatically adjusted according to different temperature conditions, improving the system's flexibility and adaptability.

[0049] In some embodiments of this application, reference is made to Figure 3 As shown, it also includes: a user configuration module 80. The user configuration module 80 is communicatively connected to the water vending machine motherboard 10. The user configuration module 80 includes a user configuration interface. The user configuration module 80 is configured to: allow users to set the water vending machine temperature control parameters through the user configuration interface and send the temperature control parameters to the water vending machine motherboard 10. The water vending machine temperature control parameters include: preset opening temperature and preset closing temperature.

[0050] Understandably, the user configuration interface can be displayed to users via a screen or mobile phone, allowing them to set temperature control parameters. Users can easily configure the water vending machine's temperature control parameters through this interface, including but not limited to preset on / off temperatures. These parameter settings enable users to flexibly adjust the temperature control strategy based on the climate characteristics of their region and the frequency of water vending machine usage, thereby achieving more energy-efficient and effective temperature control.

[0051] In this embodiment, the user configuration module 80 allows users to customize temperature control parameters, enabling them to participate more directly in the temperature control management of the water vending machine, thereby increasing user engagement and satisfaction. Simultaneously, users can flexibly adjust the temperature control parameters according to their actual needs, such as increasing or decreasing the preset on / off temperature. This flexibility allows the temperature control strategy to better adapt to climate changes in different regions and seasons, as well as the drinking water needs of different users. This reduces equipment failures and maintenance costs caused by improper temperature control. It also avoids energy waste due to overheating or underheating.

[0052] In some embodiments of this application, the user configuration module 80 is further configured to: set manual temperature control parameters through the user configuration interface and send the manual temperature control parameters to the water vending machine motherboard 10; the water vending machine motherboard 10 is further configured to: receive the manual temperature control parameters and, according to the manual temperature control parameters, send a signal to turn off the auxiliary temperature control or a signal to turn on the auxiliary temperature control to the auxiliary temperature control 30.

[0053] In some embodiments of this application, the manual temperature control parameters include: periodic start parameters and preset manual temperature control start temperature. The periodic start parameters include: preset periodic start duration and preset periodic stop duration.

[0054] The user configuration module 80 allows users to set periodic start parameters and preset manual temperature control start temperatures through a user configuration interface. These parameters collectively determine the automatic operation cycle of the temperature control device. The user configuration module 80 sends the user-set periodic start parameters and preset manual temperature control start temperatures to the water vending machine's mainboard 10, providing basic data for subsequent temperature control operations.

[0055] The introduction of periodic start parameters and preset manual temperature control start temperatures allows the temperature control system to flexibly adjust according to user needs and environmental changes, improving system adaptability and stability. Through automated and intelligent control methods, equipment failures and maintenance costs caused by improper temperature control are reduced, and operation and maintenance difficulty is lowered.

[0056] In some embodiments of this application, reference is made to Figure 2 As shown, it also includes a network module 50, which is installed on the water vending machine motherboard 10 and is connected to the backend server. The network module 50 is configured to: obtain the local weather forecast temperature for the day through the backend server, obtain the temperature data for the day, and send the temperature data for the day to the water vending machine motherboard 10. The water vending machine motherboard 10 is also configured to: receive the temperature data for the day, compare the temperature data for the day with the preset manual temperature control start temperature; when the temperature data for the day is lower than the preset manual temperature control start temperature, send a signal to turn off the auxiliary temperature control or a signal to turn on the auxiliary temperature control to the auxiliary temperature control 30 according to the current cycle start parameters.

[0057] The network module 50 communicates with the internet to obtain the local daily weather forecast temperature in real time. The obtained daily temperature data is then sent to the water vending machine's mainboard 10 to provide a basis for subsequent temperature control strategy formulation. After receiving the daily temperature data sent by the network module 50, the water vending machine's mainboard 10 immediately processes the data.

[0058] When the temperature data is lower than the preset manual temperature control activation temperature, it indicates that the external environment is cold, and the water temperature inside the machine may drop easily. At this time, the main board 10 of the water vending machine will turn the auxiliary temperature control 30 on or off according to the current cycle activation parameters. The auxiliary temperature control 30 will automatically turn the heating on or off according to the preset cycle activation parameters, thereby ensuring that the water temperature inside the machine is always kept within a suitable range.

[0059] The introduction of the network module 50 enables the water vending machine to obtain local weather forecast temperatures in real time, thereby predicting the impact of the external environment on the water temperature. This predictive temperature control strategy greatly improves the accuracy and stability of temperature control. By intelligently controlling the opening and closing of the auxiliary temperature controller 30, the water vending machine can minimize energy consumption while ensuring the water temperature, thus reducing operating costs.

[0060] Specifically, when the daily temperature is lower than the preset manual temperature control activation temperature, it indicates that the temperature is low. In this case, the water vending machine's main board 10 will intelligently control the activation and deactivation of the auxiliary temperature control 30 according to preset periodic activation parameters. Specifically, during the preset periodic activation time, the water vending machine's main board 10 will activate the auxiliary temperature control 30 for heating; while during the preset periodic deactivation time, it will deactivate the auxiliary temperature control 30 to stop heating, thereby achieving energy-saving effects.

[0061] Understandably, if the temperature data on the day is higher than the preset manual temperature control start temperature, it means that the temperature on the day is high enough, and the water vending machine can operate normally. Only when the main temperature control 20 fails to raise the internal temperature of the machine to the preset shut-off temperature within ten minutes will the main board 10 of the water vending machine send an start signal to the auxiliary temperature control 30, and the auxiliary temperature control 30 will start heating.

[0062] In some embodiments of this application, a second temperature sensor 60 is also included. The second temperature sensor 60 is located outside the water vending machine and electrically connected to the water vending machine mainboard 10. The second temperature sensor 60 is configured to: acquire the temperature outside the water vending machine once per hour to obtain ambient temperature data, and send the ambient temperature data to the water vending machine mainboard 10. The water vending machine mainboard 10 is also configured to: receive the ambient temperature data, compare the ambient temperature data with a preset manual temperature control start temperature; when the ambient temperature data is lower than the preset manual temperature control start temperature, send a signal to turn off the auxiliary temperature control or a signal to turn on the auxiliary temperature control to the auxiliary temperature control 30 according to the current cycle start parameters.

[0063] The second temperature sensor 60 has a highly accurate temperature sensing capability, and can automatically acquire the external temperature data of the water vending machine, i.e., the ambient temperature data, once per hour. This frequency setting ensures the timeliness of the data. The acquired ambient temperature data is then sent by the second temperature sensor 60 to the water vending machine's mainboard 10.

[0064] When the ambient temperature is lower than the preset manual temperature control activation temperature, it indicates that the external environment of the water vending machine is cold, which may cause the water temperature inside the machine to drop easily. In this case, the mainboard 10 of the water vending machine will send a signal to either disable or enable the auxiliary temperature control to the auxiliary temperature control 30 based on the current cycle startup parameters. This ensures that the water temperature inside the machine is always maintained within a suitable range.

[0065] The introduction of the second temperature sensor 60 enables the water vending machine to sense and adapt to changes in the external environment in real time. This intelligent temperature control strategy based on ambient temperature greatly improves the accuracy and response speed of temperature control. Users no longer need to frequently adjust the temperature control parameters, making the temperature control of the water vending machine more intelligent and convenient.

[0066] In some embodiments of this application, a power supply module 70 is also included. The power supply module 70 is disposed on the water vending machine motherboard 10. The power supply module 70 is provided with a power supply interface for connecting an external power source to supply power to the water vending machine motherboard 10.

[0067] As described above, this application provides a temperature control device for a water vending machine. The auxiliary temperature control can assist in heating, preventing the water vending machine from failing to rise properly in cold weather, thus avoiding the need for users to replace the temperature control equipment. Simultaneously, this solution avoids the problem of users installing high-power heating equipment, which heats the water vending machine quickly after being turned on, then immediately shuts off after reaching the set temperature, causing repeated on / off cycles. This extends the lifespan of the heating equipment, saves electricity, and avoids unnecessary resource waste. When manual temperature control is activated, the water vending machine's mainboard can automatically activate the main temperature control heating function when it detects a low internal temperature. It can also automatically obtain the local temperature from a weather forecast platform, allowing for intermittent activation of the auxiliary temperature control. This not only meets the user's energy-saving needs but also facilitates maintenance personnel and reduces labor costs.

[0068] Other embodiments of this disclosure will be readily apparent to those skilled in the art upon consideration of the disclosure in the specification and examples. This application is intended to cover any variations, uses, or adaptations of this disclosure that follow the general principles of this disclosure and include common knowledge or customary techniques in the art not disclosed herein.
