[0038] The working principle of this embodiment is as follows:

[0039] (1) Normal temperature water: The booster pump 113 is started, the solenoid valve a1 is closed, the solenoid valve a2 is opened, and the tap water is filtered through multiple layers and flows out from the direct drinking port 41 of the liquid outlet system 4;

[0040] (2) Hot water: The booster pump 113 is started, the solenoid valve a1 is opened, and the solenoid valve a2 is closed. The tap water is filtered through multiple layers and stored in the pressure buffer 13. The DC pump 2 is started, and the water in the pressure buffer 13 enters the heater 14 and is heated to a specified temperature before flowing out from the direct drinking port 41 of the liquid outlet system 4.

[0041] (3) Coffee: The booster pump 113 is started, the solenoid valve a1 is opened, and the solenoid valve a2 is closed. The tap water is filtered through multiple layers and stored in the pressure buffer 13. The DC pump 2 and the vibration pump are started. The water in the pressure buffer 13 enters the heater 14 and the heating block 21 in turn for heating. After that, the water enters the brewer 22 to make coffee and flows out from the coffee port 42 of the liquid outlet system 4.

[0042] (4) Milk froth: The booster pump 113 is started, the solenoid valve a1 is opened, and the solenoid valve a2 is closed. The tap water is filtered through multiple layers and stored in the pressure buffer 13. The DC pump 2 and the vibration pump are started, and the water in the pressure buffer 13 enters the heater 14 and the heating block 21 in turn to be heated and prepare steam to enter the milk froth system 3. The milk froth system 3 sucks in milk and generates milk froth through the Venturi principle, and flows out from the milk froth port 43 of the liquid outlet system 4.

[0043] (5) Drainage: Wastewater from the water receiving tray 52, concentrated water from the filter module 11, water in the pressure buffer 13 that has not been used for a long time, and cooling water from the heating block 21 are collected in the drain port 51 and flow out from the drain pipe by gravity.

[0044] The utility model connects the heater 14 of the water purification system 1 and the heating block 21 of the coffee system 2 in series and adopts PID control, which is energy-saving and environmentally friendly, meets the requirements of use, and the key is that the liquid is discharged quickly, achieving multiple goals at one stroke. Specifically, the heater 14 is a fast heating method, it discharges hot water quickly, so it is suitable for direct hot water drinking; but the heating block 21 for making coffee generally uses the heating method of an aluminum die-casting boiler, and because it has a large thermal inertia problem, it heats up relatively slowly, and there is a problem of waiting for more than ten or twenty seconds to discharge the coffee liquid. If a heater 14 is connected in series before the heating block 21 and a basic temperature is given to it in advance, then both the speed of brewing coffee and the speed of making milk foam will be much faster, eliminating the waiting time, which also solves the problem of many household coffee machines having two heating blocks 21.
