[0002] At present, ice making is usually done by placing an ice box in a refrigerator, but filling the ice box with water has always been a difficulty in the ice making system. The existing solution is to place the ice box in the freezer and add water to the ice box from the outside, eliminating the inconvenience of water splashing inside the ice box when it is placed in the refrigerator.

[0003] In the process of adding water to the ice box, some methods use an external water source and configure a flow meter and a solenoid valve to allow a certain amount of water to flow into the ice box. The solenoid valve controls the water circuit, and the flow meter controls the water volume. The entire system requires at least two electrical components and a corresponding control system, and the manufacturing and maintenance costs are high. Other methods control the water injection amount by controlling the water injection time, but are easily affected by water pressure fluctuations, which can cause fluctuations in the water injection amount.

[0091] The second separator 422 is used to close the open end of the second tank portion 4182, and together with the second tank portion 4182 and the second end cover 420, forms a second chamber 417. The second separator 422 and the first separator 421 are abutted against each other, and the first tank portion 4181 and the second tank portion 4182 are connected together by the connecting portion 4183.

The first through hole 341 and the fourth through hole 344 are perpendicular to the second through hole 342 and the third through hole 343, and the valve core 34 is connected to the valve core 34. Fig.11 As shown, four holes are arranged side by side at positions on the valve body 33 corresponding to the first through hole 341, the second through hole 342, the third through hole 343 and the fourth through hole 344 on the valve core. When the first through hole 341 and the fourth through hole 344 are directly opposite to the holes on the valve body 33, the second through hole 342 and the third through hole 343 are perpendicular to the holes on the valve body 33, thereby blocking the second through hole 342 and the third through hole 343; when the second through hole 342 and the third through hole 343 are directly opposite to the holes on the valve body 33, the first through hole 341 and the fourth through hole 344 are perpendicular to the holes on the valve body 33, thereby blocking the first through hole 341 and the fourth through hole 344.

[0104] The valve core 34 is rotatable relative to the valve body 33 between a first position and a second position.

[0105] When the valve core 34 is in the first position, the first through hole 341 connects the water inlet interface 311 and the first interface 312, the fourth through hole 344 connects the water outlet interface 321 and the fourth interface 323, the valve core 34 cuts off the water inlet interface 311 and the second interface 313, and cuts off the water outlet interface 321 and the third interface 322; when the valve core 34 is in the second position, the second through hole 342 connects the water inlet interface 311 and the second interface 313, the third through hole 343 connects the water outlet interface 321 and the third interface 322, the valve core 34 cuts off the water inlet interface 311 and the first interface 312, and cuts off the water outlet interface 321 and the fourth interface 323.

[0106] In some embodiments of the present application, the axes of the first through hole 341 and the fourth through hole 344 are parallel, the axes of the second through hole 342 and the third through hole 343 are parallel, and the axes of the first through hole 341 and the fourth through hole 344 are not in the same plane as the axes of the second through hole 342 and the third through hole 343. In this way, by changing the position of the valve core 34 in the installation cavity 331, that is, rotating the valve core 34, it is convenient to achieve alternating water inflow into the first chamber 416 and the second chamber 417, thereby realizing quantitative automatic water injection of the water-using equipment.

[0107] In some embodiments of the present application, the axis of the first through hole 341 is perpendicular to the axis of the second through hole 342, so that when the first through hole 341 and the fourth through hole 344 on the valve core 34 are respectively aligned with the first interface 312 and the fourth interface 323 on the valve body 33, the second through hole 342 and the third through hole 343 are respectively perpendicular to the second interface 313 and the third interface 322 on the valve body 33, that is, the first interface 312 and the fourth interface 323 are respectively connected to the water inlet interface 311 and the water outlet interface 321, and the second interface 313 and the third interface 322 are respectively disconnected from the water inlet interface 311 and the water outlet interface 321. At this time, water enters the first chamber 416 from the first interface 312 through the first water inlet 412, pushing the partition 42 to expand toward the second chamber 417. When water enters for the first time, no water flows out of the second chamber 417.

[0108] When the valve core 34 rotates 90°, the second through hole 342 and the third through hole 343 on the valve core 34 are aligned with the second interface 313 and the third interface 322 on the valve body 33, respectively, and the first through hole 341 and the fourth through hole 344 on the valve core 34 are perpendicular to the first interface 312 and the fourth interface 323 on the valve body 33, respectively, that is, the second interface 313 and the third interface 322 are connected to the water inlet interface 311 and the water outlet interface 321, respectively, and the first interface 312 and the fourth interface 323 are disconnected from the water inlet interface 311 and the water outlet interface 321, respectively. At this time, water enters the second chamber 417 from the second interface 313, pushing the partition 42 to expand toward the first chamber 416, and the water in the first chamber 416 is discharged from the third interface 322 through the second water outlet 415. In this process, water flows out of the first chamber 416 and water enters the second chamber 417.

[0109] When the valve core 34 rotates 90° again, the first through hole 341 and the fourth through hole 344 on the valve core 34 are aligned with the first interface 312 and the fourth interface 323 on the valve body 33, respectively, and the second through hole 342 and the third through hole 343 are respectively perpendicular to the second interface 313 and the third interface 322 on the valve body 33, that is, the first interface 312 and the fourth interface 323 are respectively connected to the water inlet interface 311 and the water outlet interface 321, and the second interface 313 and the third interface 322 are respectively disconnected from the water inlet interface 311 and the water outlet interface 321. At this time, water enters the first chamber 416 from the first interface 312 through the first water inlet 412, pushing the partition 42 to expand toward the second chamber 417, and the water in the second chamber 417 is discharged from the second water outlet 415 through the fourth interface 323. In this process, water enters the first chamber 416 and water discharges from the second chamber 417.

[0110] In other embodiments, the angle between the axis of the first through hole 341 and the axis of the second through hole 342 may also be less than 90°. The angle may be set according to actual needs.

[0111] In some other embodiments of the present application, the quantitative water outlet device 2 further includes a water inlet pipe and a water outlet pipe.

[0112] The water inlet pipe and the water outlet pipe are respectively connected to the valve body 33. A total water inlet is formed on the water inlet pipe, and a total water outlet is formed on the water outlet pipe. The total water inlet 31 includes a water inlet interface 311, a first interface 312 and a second interface 313; the total water outlet 32 ​​includes a water outlet interface 321, a third interface 322 and a fourth interface 323.

[0113] In some embodiments, the water inlet pipe and the water outlet pipe are both Y-shaped. The shapes of the water inlet pipe and the water outlet pipe include but are not limited to the above shapes.

[0114] In some embodiments of the present application, the quantitative water outlet device 2 further includes a drive motor 5 .

[0115] The output shaft of the driving motor 5 is drivingly connected to the rotating shaft of the valve core 34. The driving motor 5 can drive the valve core 34 to rotate; when the driving motor 5 rotates, the valve core 34 can be driven to rotate relative to the valve body 33 between the first position and the second position.

[0116] Specifically, the conversion of water with water pressure entering from the second chamber 417 and being discharged from the first chamber 416, or water with water pressure entering from the first chamber 416 and being discharged from the second chamber 417 is achieved by driving the valve core 34 to rotate by the driving motor 5, while the deformation and expansion of the partition 42 is performed passively.

[0117] The angle of each rotation of the driving motor 5 is the same, and the time for each conversion of the driving motor 5 must be greater than or equal to the drainage time of the first chamber 416 or the second chamber 417, so as to ensure that each water intake and drainage process can be carried out thoroughly.

[0122] The partition 42 is disposed in the water storage portion 41 and divides the water storage cavity 411 into two independent first chambers 416 and second chambers 417. The partition 42 is elastic. The first water inlet 412 and the first water outlet 413 are respectively connected to the first chamber 416, and the second water inlet 414 and the second water outlet 415 are respectively connected to the second chamber 417.
