DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0021] A commercial direct drinking machine with automatic cup dropping function:

[0022] like Figure 1-3As shown, in this embodiment, it includes a direct drinking machine body 1 and a filtering component installed therein, the front end of the direct drinking machine body 1 is hinged with a machine door 5, the lower part of the front end of the machine door 5 is provided with a water inlet 2, the inner end surface of the machine door 5 is fixed with a support frame 19 corresponding to the water inlet 2, the upper end of the left side of the support frame 19 is provided with an automatic cup dropper 3, the lower part of the cup outlet of the automatic cup dropper 3 is provided with a cup receiving limit sleeve 6, and the upper part of the front end of the machine door 5 is provided with a touch screen 17;

[0023] When the commercial direct drinking machine for drinking water is in use, the direct drinking machine body 1 is operated by controlling the touch screen 17, that is, the touch screen 17 will generate a corresponding QR code, and the user further operates the direct drinking machine body 1 by scanning the QR code, especially when taking a cup, by setting the automatic cup dropper 3 inside the direct drinking machine body 1 for use together, the startup (switch button or control of the touch screen 17) and working principle of the automatic cup dropper 3 are consistent with the traditional ones, so no further details are given. Since the cup receiving limit sleeve 6 is located below the cup outlet of the automatic cup dropper 3, the automatic cup dropper 3 automatically drops the cup into the cup receiving limit sleeve 6 when working. The cup receiving limit sleeve 6 is beneficial to prevent the cup from tipping over after falling, and is beneficial to ensure the stability of the cup when receiving water later.

[0024] like Figure 1-3 As shown, in this embodiment, the main faucet 4 is installed on the inner end surface of the door 5, and the left and right translation assembly is composed of a supporting mesh plate 7, a sliding block 8, a screw motor 10, a screw 11 and a guide shaft 12. The supporting mesh plate 7 is fixed to the lower end of the cup limit sleeve 6, the sliding block 8 is fixed to the lower end of the supporting mesh plate 7, the screw motor 10 is fixed to the right wall inside the support frame 19, one end of the screw 11 is connected to the power end of the screw motor 10, and the other end of the screw 11 is rotatably connected to the left wall inside the support frame 19, the sliding block 8 is threadedly sleeved on the outer periphery of the screw 11, the guide shaft 12 is fixed to the lower end of the support frame 19, the sliding block 8 is slidably sleeved with the guide shaft 12, and the front of the door 5 is connected with a first switch 15 and a second switch 16 near the bottom of the water inlet 2, and the first switch 15 and the second switch 16 are both connected to the screw motor 10;

[0025] When the cup falls into the cup receiving and limiting sleeve 6, the second switch 16 is set to be connected to the screw motor 10 through a controller, and the controller is installed in the direct drinking machine body 1, and the start of the second switch 16 is set to control the screw motor 10 to drive the screw 11 to rotate forward. The screw 11 will drive the sliding block 8 to slide rightward along the guide shaft 12, and the sliding block 8 will drive the supporting mesh plate 7 and the cup receiving and limiting sleeve 6 to move rightward together. When the second switch 16 is operated, the cup receiving and limiting sleeve 6 drives the cup to be located directly below the main faucet 4, and the screw motor 10 stops working. In summary, through the work of the left and right translation components, it is convenient to move the cup to the bottom of the main faucet 4 for water collection, and during the cup receiving water collection process, there is no need to manually take the cup, and it is necessary to manually take the cup and use water until the water collection is completed. The operation is convenient, so as to facilitate convenient and clean cup collection of water, and under the premise of the self-equipped filtering component in the direct drinking machine body 1, the water is filtered by the filtering component before use, which is conducive to ensuring healthy drinking water.

[0026] like Figure 2 , 3 As shown, in this embodiment, the support mesh plate 7 is fixed to the lower end of the cup limit sleeve 6, the sliding block 8 is fixed to the lower end of the support mesh plate 7, the screw motor 10 is fixed to the inner right wall of the support frame 19, one end of the screw 11 is connected to the power end of the screw motor 10, and the other end of the screw 11 is rotatably connected to the inner left wall of the support frame 19, the sliding block 8 is threadedly sleeved on the outer periphery of the screw 11, the guide shaft 12 is fixed to the inner lower end of the support frame 19, and the sliding block 8 is slidably sleeved with the guide shaft 12;

[0027] When the cup is filled with water, the cup is taken out from the cup receiving and limiting sleeve 6, and the first switch 15 is set to control the screw motor 10 to drive the screw rod 11 to reverse. The first switch 15 is connected to the screw motor 10 through the controller. After pressing the first switch 15 to start the screw motor 10, the screw motor 10 drives the screw rod 11 to reverse and drives the sliding block 8 to slide left along the guide shaft 12. At the same time, the sliding block 8 drives the supporting mesh plate 7 and the cup receiving and limiting sleeve 6 to move left together until the cup receiving and limiting sleeve 6 is reset to the bottom of the cup outlet of the automatic cup dropper 3, so as to facilitate the cup receiving and limiting sleeve 6 to catch the cup falling in the automatic cup dropper 3 again.

[0028] like Figure 3 As shown, in this embodiment, a water storage groove 9 is opened at the bottom end of the water inlet 2, and a secondary faucet 14 connected to the water storage groove 9 is connected to the front end of the direct drinking machine body 1, and a water leakage net 13 is fixed at the upper end of the water storage groove 9;

[0029] When water is accidentally spilled during the water collection process, by providing a water storage groove 9, the water accidentally spilled during the water collection process leaks into the water storage groove 9 through the water leakage net 13 and is then released through the auxiliary faucet 14, which is convenient for users to wash their hands and avoids direct waste of spilled water, thereby achieving the effect of saving water resources.

[0030] like Figure 3 As shown, in this embodiment, a glass protective cover 18 is hingedly connected to the front end of the direct drinking machine body 1, and the glass protective cover 18 matches the opening of the water inlet 2;

[0031] When the direct drinking machine 1 is used up and idle, the glass protective cover 18 covers the water receiving port 2 to prevent external dust from entering the water receiving port 2, effectively ensuring the hygiene of the direct drinking machine 1 when receiving water for drinking. Moreover, the internal structure of the water receiving port 2 can be intuitively viewed through the transparency of the glass protective cover 18, making it convenient for users to know the location and use of taking a cup to receive water.

[0032] A support frame 19 is fixed to the inner end surface of the door 5, and an automatic cup dropper 3 is installed on the upper end of the left side of the support frame 19;

[0033] When it is necessary to add cups into the automatic cup dropper 3 , the machine door 5 is opened, which is convenient for adding cups into the automatic cup dropper 3 and also for maintaining the automatic cup dropper 3 .
