[0002] A water dispenser is a device that heats or cools bottled pure water (or mineral water) to make it convenient for people to drink. Bottled water is placed on top of the machine and used in conjunction with bottled water. Water dispensers are generally divided into three types: warm and hot, ice and hot, and ice and warm and hot. Ice and hot machines are further divided into semiconductor refrigeration water dispensers and compressor refrigeration water dispensers.
[0003] Faucets are the popular name for water valves, which are used to control the size of water flow and have the effect of saving water.

[0043] Photoelectric switch 4, photoelectric switch, also known as photoelectric proximity switch or photoelectric sensor, is a device that uses the obstruction or reflection of the light beam by the detected object, and the circuit is connected by the synchronous circuit to detect the presence or absence of the object. Its working principle is to convert the input current into a light signal on the transmitter, and the receiver detects the target object according to the intensity or presence of the received light. It first converts the measured changes into changes in the light signal, and then further converts the light signal into an electrical signal with the help of photoelectric elements. Photoelectric switches can be divided into diffuse type, opposite-beam type, mirror reflection type, slot type photoelectric switch and fiber optic photoelectric switch according to the detection method. The photoelectric switch 4 is fixedly mounted on the connecting cover 3;

[0045] Main board 7, see Figure 6 , the main board 7 is electrically connected to the photoelectric switch 4;
[0046] Solenoid valve 8, see Figure 6 The solenoid valve 8 is electrically connected to the main board 7; one end of the solenoid valve 8 is connected to the water tank and the faucet in the water dispenser 12, and the other end is connected to an external water source (such as a tap).
[0047] For further information, see Figure 2 and Figure 4 , the photoelectric switch 4 is a slot-type photoelectric switch 4. When the switch plate 6 is driven by the knob cover 5, it can switch between the slot inside or outside the slot of the slot-type photoelectric switch 4.
[0048] For further information, see Figure 2 and Figure 4 The side of the connection cover 3 has a connection hole 9, and the connection hole 9 is connected to the main shaft 1. During installation, screws or bolts can be installed in the connection hole 9 so that the ends of the screws / bolts are connected or abutted against the main shaft 1, thereby achieving connection between the connection cover 3 and the main shaft 1.
[0049] For further information, see Figure 2 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 The knob cover 5 has a connection plate 10 that is fixedly connected or detachably connected, and the switch plate 6 is connected to the connection plate 10 .
[0050] See also Figure 6 The steps of the utility model in application are: rotating the knob cover 5 so that the knob cover 5 drives the switch plate 6 to switch between a position overlapping with the photoelectric switch 4 and a position not overlapping; the photoelectric switch 4 emits light and receives reflected light, and generates an electrical signal when the light is blocked or reflected by the switch plate 6; the main board 7 receives the electrical signal from the photoelectric switch 4 and converts it; the solenoid valve 8 receives the signal from the main board 7, changes the power state of the solenoid valve coil, and realizes the switch of the solenoid valve 8. Example
[0051] This embodiment 2 includes all the features of embodiment 1, and the difference is that the switch plate 6 and the connecting plate 10 are deleted. Figure 7, by providing a dark area 11 on the inner wall of the side of the knob cover 5, the dark area 11 is a black area of graffiti or stickers on the inner wall of the knob cover 5; the black area has a strong light absorption capacity and a low reflectivity, so when the light beam of the photoelectric switch 4 irradiates the black area, the intensity of the reflected light will be greatly weakened, which causes the photoelectric switch to be unable to detect the reflected light and thus generate a signal. The dark area 11 is at a horizontal height with the photoelectric switch 4. When the knob cover 5 rotates with the spindle 1 as the axis, the dark area 11 can switch between a position horizontally overlapping with the photoelectric switch 4 and a position not overlapping.
