Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the field of water dispensers, in particular to an exhaust and drainage component of a water dispenser and a water dispenser. Background Art
[0002] The hot water tank of a water dispenser is typically equipped with an overflow pipe, the port of which is connected to the top of the tank. If the water inlet function of the hot water tank fails and the water level in the tank reaches the height of the overflow pipe port, the excess water will be discharged through the overflow pipe. Currently, if the water inlet function of the hot water tank is normal, the overflow pipe also serves as a vent. As the heated water in the hot water tank generates steam, the steam will be discharged to the outside through the overflow pipe.
[0003] However, after the water dispenser has been used for a long time, dirt and scale accumulate in the overflow pipe, which can easily cause blockage. When the overflow pipe is blocked, the steam in the hot water tank is difficult to discharge, causing the hot water tank to be damaged due to excessive air pressure. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of the present utility model is to provide a water dispenser exhaust and drainage component and a water dispenser, so as to solve one or more technical problems existing in the prior art and at least provide a beneficial choice or create conditions.

[0009] an exhaust pipe connected to the exhaust port;
[0010] A drain pipe is connected to the drain interface.
[0011] The beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: the drainage interface of the overflow pipe is connected to the drain pipe, and the exhaust interface of the overflow pipe is connected to the exhaust pipe, and the height of the drainage interface is lower than that of the exhaust interface. When water in the hot water tank overflows into the overflow pipe and the steam of the hot water tank flows along the overflow pipe, due to the low density of the steam, the steam flows from the exhaust interface to the exhaust pipe and is discharged to the outside, and the water flows from the drainage interface to the drain pipe and is discharged to the outside, so that the overflow pipe discharges water and steam at the same time, and the steam will not be unable to be discharged due to blockage of the drain pipe, thereby ensuring that the air pressure in the hot water tank is maintained within a normal range; and, since the exhaust pipe, the drain pipe, and the overflow pipe form the water dispenser exhaust and drainage assembly, there is no need to open another hole in the hot water tank to connect to the exhaust pipe, which helps to save space, improve the sealing performance of the hot water tank, and reduce the manufacturing difficulty of the hot water tank.
[0012] As a further improvement of the above technical solution, a communicating vessel is provided at the bottom end of the overflow pipe, and the drainage interface is a port of the communicating vessel.
[0013] As a further improvement of the above technical solution, the height of the communicating vessel is lower than the height of the exhaust interface and the exhaust pipe.
[0014] As a further improvement of the above technical solution, the exhaust interface gradually tilts upward from the overflow pipe to the exhaust pipe.
[0015] As a further improvement of the above technical solution, the exhaust pipe extends upward from the exhaust interface.
[0016] As a further improvement of the above technical solution, the exhaust pipe is provided with a one-way valve.

[0029] Reference Figures 1 to 2 The exhaust and drainage assembly of the water dispenser of the present invention is made into the following embodiments:
[0030] The water dispenser exhaust and drainage assembly includes a hot water tank 100, an overflow pipe 200, an exhaust pipe 300, and a drainage pipe 400.
[0031] The top of the overflow pipe 200 is connected to the top of the hot water tank 100, and the overflow pipe 200 extends downward. The overflow pipe 200 is provided with an exhaust interface 210 and a drainage interface 220 from top to bottom. The exhaust interface 210 is connected to the exhaust pipe 300, and the drainage interface 220 is connected to the drainage pipe 400.
[0032] The drainage interface 220 of the overflow pipe 200 is connected to the drainage pipe 400, and the exhaust interface 210 of the overflow pipe 200 is connected to the exhaust pipe 300, and the height of the drainage interface 220 is lower than the height of the exhaust interface 210. When the water in the hot water tank 100 overflows into the overflow pipe 200 and the steam of the hot water tank 100 flows along the overflow pipe 200, due to the low density of the steam, the steam flows from the exhaust interface 210 to the exhaust pipe 300 and is discharged to the outside, and the water flows from the drainage interface 220 to the drainage pipe 400 and is discharged to the outside, so that the overflow pipe 100 discharges water and steam at the same time, and the steam will not be unable to be discharged due to blockage of the drainage pipe 400, thereby ensuring that the air pressure in the hot water tank 100 remains within a normal range.
[0033] Furthermore, since the exhaust pipe 300, the drain pipe 400, and the overflow pipe 200 form the exhaust and drainage assembly of the water dispenser, there is no need to open another hole in the hot water tank 100 to connect the exhaust pipe 300, which helps to save space, improve the sealing performance of the hot water tank 100, and reduce the manufacturing difficulty of the hot water tank.
[0034] In some embodiments, a drain interface 220 of the communicating vessel 201 is installed at the bottom end of the overflow pipe 200 as a port of the communicating vessel 201 .
[0035] A communicating vessel 201 is installed at the bottom end of the overflow pipe 200, and the communicating vessel 201 is connected to the drain pipe 400 through the drain interface 220. Therefore, the water flowing from the overflow pipe 200 to the communicating vessel 201 forms a liquid seal in the communicating vessel 201, preventing external air from entering the hot water tank 100 from the drain pipe 400 through the overflow pipe 200 and causing pollution; and, since the temperature of the steam is relatively high, the liquid seal formed by the communicating vessel 201 can prevent the steam in the overflow pipe 200 from being directly discharged from the drain pipe 400 to the outside, avoiding the increase in temperature of the drain pipe 400 and affecting the sealing effect of the pipe connection position, and ensuring that the steam is discharged from the exhaust pipe 300.
[0036] In some embodiments, the height of the exhaust port 210 and the exhaust pipe 300 is higher than the height of the communicating vessel 201 .
[0037] The height of the structures related to steam discharge is higher than that of the communicating vessel 201 , ensuring that the communicating vessel 201 can form a liquid sealing effect when water in the hot water tank 100 overflows.
[0038] In some embodiments, the exhaust port 210 gradually slopes upward from the overflow pipe 200 toward the outside.
[0039] The upwardly inclined exhaust interface 210 helps prevent water flowing down the overflow pipe 200 from accumulating in the exhaust interface 210, and allows water condensed by steam in the exhaust pipe 300 to flow through the exhaust interface 210 to be discharged into the overflow pipe 200, thereby preventing water from accumulating in the exhaust interface 210 or the exhaust pipe 300.
[0040] In some embodiments, the exhaust pipe 300 extends upward from the exhaust port 210 .
[0041] Setting the exhaust pipe 300 as a pipe extending vertically helps the water formed by condensation of steam in the exhaust pipe 300 to flow to the overflow pipe 200 through the exhaust interface 210 for discharge, avoiding water accumulation in the exhaust interface 210 or the exhaust pipe 300 and ensuring smooth discharge of steam.
[0042] In some embodiments, the exhaust pipe 300 is provided with a one-way valve 310 .
[0043] The one-way valve 310 allows air to flow from the exhaust port 210 to the outside, so the one-way valve 310 prevents outside air from flowing back into the hot water tank 100 through the exhaust pipe 300 and the overflow pipe 200, thereby preventing outside air from contaminating the water in the hot water tank 100.
[0044] In some embodiments, the height of the drain pipe 400 is lower than the height of the exhaust pipe 300 .
[0045] Ensure that the water in the overflow pipe 200 can flow to the drain pipe 400, and ensure that the exhaust pipe 300 remains unobstructed to facilitate the discharge of steam.
[0046] In some embodiments, the exhaust pipe 300 is detachably connected to the exhaust port 210 , and the drain pipe 400 is detachably connected to the drain port 220 .
[0047] There are many ways of detachable connection, such as through threaded connection, through gas-liquid common quick connector connection, so as to facilitate the convenient disassembly of the exhaust pipe 300 and the drain pipe 400, clean or replace the exhaust pipe 300 and the drain pipe 400, and keep the exhaust pipe 300 and the drain pipe 400 unobstructed.
[0048] In some embodiments, the exhaust pipe 300 and the drain pipe 400 are located on the same vertical plane.
[0049] The space occupied by the exhaust pipe 300 and the drain pipe 400 is reduced, which helps to save the installation space inside the water dispenser.
[0050] Specifically, refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the water dispenser exhaust and drainage assembly includes a hot water tank 100, an overflow pipe 200, an exhaust pipe 300, and a drainage pipe 400.
[0051] A drain pipe 110 is provided at the bottom of the hot water container 100 , and the drain pipe 110 is opened regularly to drain the scale and dirt accumulated at the bottom of the hot water container 100 .
[0052] A heater 120 is installed inside the hot water container 100 , and the heater 120 is used to heat the water in the hot water container 100 .
[0053] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the overflow pipe 200 is located on the left side of the hot water tank 100. The overflow pipe 200 includes a horizontal pipe extending in the left-right direction, a vertical pipe extending in the up-down direction, and a communicating vessel 201. The right end of the horizontal pipe is connected to the top of the hot water tank 100, and the top of the vertical pipe is connected to the left end of the horizontal pipe. The communicating vessel 201 is a U-shaped pipe, and the bottom end of the vertical pipe is connected to the front end of the communicating vessel 201. A drainage interface 220 is provided at the rear end of the communicating vessel 201. The drainage interface 220 is connected to the drain pipe 400 by a thread so that the drain pipe 400 is connected to the rear end of the communicating vessel 201.
[0054] The drain pipe 400 extends rearward.
[0055] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, an exhaust port 210 is provided in the middle of the vertical pipe, and the height of the exhaust port 210 is higher than the height of the communicating vessel 201 .
[0056] The exhaust interface 210 gradually extends upward from front to back, the bottom end of the exhaust pipe 300 is mounted on the outside of the exhaust interface 210, the exhaust pipe 300 extends in the up and down directions, and a one-way valve 310 is set at the top of the exhaust pipe 300. The conduction direction of the one-way valve 310 is from the inside of the exhaust pipe 300 to the outside.
[0057] The vertical pipe, the communicating vessel 201 , the exhaust pipe 300 , and the drain pipe 400 are located on the same vertical plane.
