[0047] like Figures 1 to 8 As shown, the present application provides a multifunctional tea bar machine, including a casing and a compressor 10 and a condenser 11 arranged in the casing, and the casing is also provided with: an ice-making assembly, the ice-making assembly includes a water tank 12, an ice basket 13 arranged in the water tank 12, a water collecting tank 14 and an ice-making evaporator 15 arranged corresponding to the water collecting tank 14, the water collecting tank 14 is connected to the water tank 12, and the water collecting tank 14 is arranged above the ice basket 13; a cold tank 16, a first evaporator is arranged in the cold tank 16; a refrigerator 17, a second evaporator is arranged in the refrigerator 17; wherein the compressor 10 and the condenser 11 are respectively connected to the ice-making evaporator 15, the first evaporator and the second evaporator, so that the ice-making assembly is used for making ice, the cold tank 16 is used for cooling water, and the refrigerator 17 is used for refrigeration.

[0048] Specifically, in addition to being used as a drinking water device, the tea bar machine of the present application also provides ice making and refrigeration functions, which solves the problem of single function of existing drinking water devices or ice making devices, can meet the various needs of users, and save user costs. Among them, the refrigeration is divided into three routes, one to the ice-making evaporator 15 to meet the ice-making needs, one to the first evaporator to meet the cooling water needs, and one to the second evaporator to meet the refrigeration needs. Using the same set of compressors 10 and condensers 11 to achieve refrigeration can improve the utilization rate of the refrigeration module, reduce the number of components, and promote the compactness and miniaturization of the whole machine. Figure 7 As shown, a solenoid valve 18 is provided on each branch of the three-way refrigeration system to control the return air pipe, thereby realizing three-way independent temperature control, improving control accuracy and reducing energy consumption as much as possible.

[0049] like Figure 8As shown, the water distribution of the tea bar machine used in the present application is shown. When ice making is required, the water supply device 23 can supply water to the water tank 12, and the water in the water tank 12 can be pumped to the water collection tank 14 by the water pump 27 for ice making, and the made ice cubes can be transferred to the ice basket 13 for storage. When refrigerated water is needed, the water supply device 23 can supply water to the cold tank 16 to meet the user's demand for drinking cold water.

[0050] As a preferred embodiment of the present application, a mounting base 19 is provided in the casing, the compressor 10 and the condenser 11 are arranged side by side at the rear end of the mounting base 19, the water tank 12 and the refrigerator 17 are arranged side by side at the front end of the mounting base 19, and the cold storage tank 16 is arranged in the middle of the mounting base 19.

[0051] like Figure 1 As shown, the vertical housing includes, for example, a left side panel 101 and a right side panel 102 arranged opposite to each other, a top cover 103 and a base 104 arranged opposite to each other, and a rear side panel 105. A mounting seat 19 is provided inside the housing. The mounting seat 19 is horizontally placed above the base 104 to provide installation space for multiple components such as a refrigeration module. Figure 2 As shown, the compressor 10 and the condenser 11 are arranged side by side at the rear end of the mounting seat 19, which is beneficial to move the center of gravity backward to improve the stability of the machine and facilitate heat dissipation; the water tank 12 and the refrigerator 17 are arranged side by side at the front end of the mounting seat 19, which is convenient for the user to operate the water tank 12 from the front side or refrigerate food, thereby improving the user experience; the cold tank 16 is arranged in the middle of the mounting seat 19, which can make full use of the free space, improve space utilization, and facilitate the connection of the refrigeration and facilitate assembly.

[0052] It is understandable that in other embodiments, the above-mentioned components may also have other arrangements, as long as the space of the mounting base 19 is reasonably utilized to facilitate the connection between the compressor 10 and the condenser 11 and other components.

[0053] In order to improve the structural strength of the mounting base 19 and stably support the multiple components arranged thereon, a supporting structure such as supporting ribs, supporting columns, brackets, etc. is provided between the mounting base 19 and the base 104 to improve the stability of the entire machine.

[0054] As a preferred embodiment of the present application, the casing includes a box-type frame 20 having an installation cavity 21, a first opening 211 is provided on the front side of the installation cavity 21 for the water tank 12 to enter and exit, the refrigerator 17 is integrated in the box-type frame 20 and is located on one side of the installation cavity 21, and a second opening 171 is provided on the front side of the refrigerator 17.

[0055] like Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, the box frame 20 is fixed to the front end of the mounting base 19 so that the first opening 211 and the second opening 171 face the user. The user can take out and put in the water tank 12 through the first opening 211, and take out and put in the food in the refrigerator 17 through the second opening 171, which is convenient to use. The water tank 12 is installed in a drawer style, which saves effort in operation, is easy to clean, and allows the user to check the water usage in the water tank 12 in time. The first opening 211 and the second opening 171 are located on the same side, which is convenient for the user to check two positions at the same time for related operations, saving time for the user and making the user feel happy. The refrigerator 17 and the mounting cavity 21 can be separated by a vertical plate, or by a vertical plate such as Figure 5 The hollow interlayer 22 is shown to be insulated to improve the insulation effect.

[0056] Preferably, a cabinet door is provided on the front end surface of the box-type frame 20 to simultaneously close the first opening 211 and the second opening 171 to hide the water tank 12 while ensuring the refrigeration effect of the refrigerator 17 .

[0057] Furthermore, inner walls on both sides of the installation cavity 21 are provided with supporting step surfaces 212 extending inwardly, and matching surfaces 121 guided along and supported on the supporting step surfaces 212 are provided on both sides of the water tank 12 .

[0058] like Figure 4 As shown, when the user installs the water tank 12, the matching surfaces 121 on both sides of the water tank 12 can be placed on the supporting step surfaces 212 on both sides of the installation cavity 21, and then the water tank 12 can be gently pushed to slide into the installation cavity 21, which is very labor-saving, especially for the water tank 12 filled with water, and the water tank 12 can be easily installed. In addition, a U-shaped concave cavity 213 is provided below the supporting step surface 212 for the bottom end of the water tank 12 to be placed, ensuring the stability of the support of the water tank 12.

[0059] Furthermore, the outer wall of the water tank 12 is provided with a limiting portion 122 protruding outward, and the inner wall of the installation cavity 21 is provided with a matching portion 214 protruding inward. When the water tank 12 is installed in place, the limiting portion 122 stops at the rear side of the matching portion 214, and at least one of the limiting portion 122 and the matching portion 214 is elastic.

[0060] like Figure 5 As shown, the matching portion 214 is, for example, a retaining rib, and the peripheral wall of the matching portion 214 is an arc wall, so as to guide the limiting portion 122 to slide in or out. The limiting portion 122 is, for example, a convex piece or a convex column, and the peripheral wall of the limiting portion 122 is also an arc wall, so as to avoid interference with the matching portion 214. Figure 5As shown, when the water tank 12 is installed in place, the limiting portion 122 stops at the rear side of the matching portion 214, which can prevent the water tank 12 from sliding out of the installation cavity 21, and the installation is secure. At least one of the limiting portion 122 and the matching portion 214 is elastic, and the elastic component can provide avoidance by deformation when the user pulls the water tank 12, which can ensure smooth disassembly and assembly of the water tank 12. The shapes of the limiting portion 122 and the matching portion 214 can be set according to actual needs, and this application does not limit this.

[0061] Furthermore, a first water inlet interface 215 and a first water outlet interface 216 are provided on the rear side of the installation cavity 21, and the water tank 12 is provided with a second water inlet interface 123 connected to the first water inlet interface 215 and a second water outlet interface 124 connected to the first water outlet interface 216 respectively, and valves 125 are provided in the second water inlet interface 123 and the second water outlet interface 124. When water is introduced into the first water inlet interface 215, the valve 125 at the second water inlet interface 123 is opened, and when water is pumped into the first water outlet interface 216 by the water pump 27, the valve 125 at the second water outlet interface 124 is opened.

[0062] like Figure 6 As shown, the water tank 12 can be an empty water tank 12 when installed, and the water inlet of the water tank 12 can be controlled by operating the machine with one button. The valve 125 at the second water inlet interface 123 is, for example, a self-closing valve 1, and the valve assembly includes, for example, a valve core, a sealing sleeve arranged at the end of the valve core, and a reset member sleeved on the outside of the valve core. When no water is entering, the elastic force of the reset member ensures that the sealing sleeve is tightly attached to the end face of the second water inlet interface 123 to achieve a plugging seal. When water is entering, the water pressure can push the valve core to move so that the sealing sleeve is separated from the end face of the second water inlet interface 123, thereby allowing water to enter the water tank 12. When ice making is required, water can be pumped to the water collection tank 14 through the first water outlet interface 216 for ice making. The valve 125 at the second water outlet interface 124 can be either a self-closing valve or a driven valve, which will not be elaborated in detail here.

[0063] Further, such as Figure 6 As shown, a water level detection device 126 is provided in the water tank 12 for detecting the minimum water level to provide feedback when there is a lack of water in the water tank 12 so that the water supply device 23 can replenish water to the water tank 12 in time.

[0064] As a preferred embodiment of the present application, the ice basket 13 is suspended on the upper part of the water tank 12 , and the ice basket 13 is provided with a water leakage hole 131 .

[0065] like Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown, the ice basket 13 is suspended on the upper part of the water tank 12, which can prevent the ice basket 13 from being easily submerged when there is a lot of water in the water tank 12, thereby preventing the ice cubes in the ice basket 13 from melting, thereby ensuring the preservation effect of the ice cubes. The water leakage hole 131 allows the water formed by the melting of the ice cubes to fall into the water tank 12, thereby preventing excessive water accumulation in the ice basket 13 from affecting the preservation effect of the ice cubes.

[0066] The ice basket 13 can be hung on the upper part of the water tank 12 by hanging, clamping, bracket support, etc., and the leakage hole 131 can be provided on the bottom wall or the side wall of the ice basket 13 or both.

[0067] In order to move the ice cubes prepared in the water collection tank 14 to the ice basket 13, any of the following methods can be used. In one embodiment, Figure 3 As shown, the water collecting tank 14 can be rotatably mounted on the upper end of the mounting cavity 21, and the water collecting tank 14 can transfer ice cubes to the ice basket 13 when it is turned down.
