Specific embodiments
[0022] A water storage standby device for a water dispenser, which can be used for household or commercial use, belongs to the device of an embedded water dispenser, and includes a body shell component 1, a water storage standby container 2, a container water valve device 3, and a water flow control valve 4; the outline of the body shell component 1 is square, and the body shell component 1 is made of plastic, which can be integrally injection-molded or made by connecting and fixing multiple components;
[0023] A recessed portion 11 is provided on the front surface of the fuselage shell component 1. The recessed portion 11 has a square shape, a simple design, and strong practicability. The length of the recessed portion 11 is between 40 cm and 60 cm, the depth is between 5 cm and 15 cm, and the height is between 20 cm and 35 cm. A container seating platform 12 is provided at the bottom of the recessed portion 11 for flatly placing the water storage standby container 2. The water storage standby container 2 is square and is adapted to the square recessed portion 11. The interior of the water storage standby container 2 is a water storage cavity 201, and the capacity of the water storage cavity 201 is generally between 1.5 liters and 3 liters. The top of the water storage cavity 201 is communicated with the outside, which is convenient for pouring water and for air permeability to allow the water level to rise and fall naturally. A container water valve device 3 is provided on the inner side wall of the bottom of the water storage standby container 2. The main technical improvement of this product lies in that: a joint through-hole 13 is opened on the bottom vertical wall at one end of the recessed portion 11, and a water flow control valve 4 is arranged in a through-hole manner in the joint through-hole 13. The water flow control valve 4 is fixedly connected to the fuselage shell component 1 through a screw assembly. The water storage standby container 2 can be detachably erected on the container seating platform 12, and the container water valve device 3 and the water flow control valve 4 can be detachably connected in a male-female plug-and-seal manner, which is convenient for the user to pick up the water storage standby container 2 and separate the fuselage shell component 1, and is convenient for the user to take away the water storage standby container 2 from the container seating platform 12. When there is a certain amount of water stored in the water storage standby container 2, when the user suddenly needs to use a certain amount of water (for example: suddenly needs to use 1 liter of water), the user can obtain the required amount of water in time to save waiting time and improve the efficiency of fetching and using water, without having to wait slowly for pumping water. It is especially suitable for catering business use and is also applicable to household use. Since the water storage standby container 2 needs to be separated and taken away for use, the container water valve device 3 and the water flow control valve 4 are arranged to be detachably connected in a male-female plug-and-seal manner.
[0024] After the user places and seats the water storage standby container 2 on the container seating platform 12, the container water valve device 3 and the water flow control valve 4 are adaptively plugged and sealed. When the container water valve device 3 and the water flow control valve 4 are plugged and sealed, the sealed connection prevents water leakage, and the internal switches of the container water valve device 3 and the water flow control valve 4 are pressed to open the valves, so that the internal water channel of the water flow control valve 4 is communicated with the water storage cavity 201. In this way, the external water enters the water storage cavity 201 through the water flow control valve 4, and a certain amount of water enters and is stored in the water storage cavity 201, waiting for sudden water use.
[0025] After the water storage standby container 2 is removed from the container seating platform 12, the container water valve device 3 and the water flow control valve 4 need to be separated; when the container water valve device 3 and the water flow control valve 4 are separated, the internal switching valves of the container water valve device 3 and the water flow control valve 4 automatically reset and close. In this way, the water holes of the water flow control valve 4 are closed and sealed, and there will be no water leakage; the water holes of the container water valve device 3 are closed and sealed, and the water storage standby container 2 will not leak water either, which is convenient for users to freely use the water storage standby container 2, and its use is flexible and convenient.
[0026] The purpose of providing the recessed portion 11 is to enable the water storage standby container 2 to be embedded in the recessed portion 11 without protruding externally, so as not to obstruct the external space, facilitating people to move around near the water dispenser. It has the functions of dust-proofing the water storage standby container 2, providing a better storage position for the water storage standby container 2, and making the appearance more concise.
[0027] Further improvement of the preferred technical solution: A water storage standby device for a water dispenser further includes a water dispenser controller 5, a container water level detection device 6, and an electric water inlet switch valve 7;
[0028] The top of the container water level detection device 6 is in communication with the outside for ventilation, because the internal water level of the container water level detection device 6 needs to rise and fall with air permeability, so it needs to be in communication with the outside; the container water level detection device 6 and the electric water inlet switch valve 7 are electrically connected to the water dispenser controller 5 through wires;
[0029] The container water valve device 3 includes a connector mating socket 31 and a container water switch valve 32. The bottom inner side wall of the water storage standby container 2 is provided with the connector mating socket 31, and the connector mating socket 31 communicates with the water storage cavity 201. The container water switch valve 32 is clamped or fixedly sealed in the connector mating socket 31 with glue. A rubber seal ring is clamped between the container water switch valve 32 and the connector mating socket 31 to prevent water leakage between the container water switch valve 32 and the connector mating socket 31, and water can only flow through the body of the container water switch valve 32;
[0030] The water flow control valve 4 includes a first water joint 41, a second water joint 42, and a third water joint 43. The first water joint 41, the second water joint 42, and the third water joint 43 are interconnected through the internal water channels of the valve body. A first water switch elastic valve core 431 is connected inside the water hole of the third water joint 43. The specific structure of the first water switch elastic valve core 431 belongs to the current technology. The water flow control valve 4 is a three-way valve, and only the first water switch elastic valve core 431 is provided at the third water joint 43. The first water joint 41 is hermetically connected to a first pipe fitting A through a connection structure such as a cable tie or a clip or a tight insertion. The other end of the first pipe fitting A is hermetically connected to the joint of the electric water inlet switch valve 7 through a pipe fitting joint. The electric water inlet switch valve 7 is used to control the on / off of the water inlet. A second water switch elastic valve core 321 is connected inside the water hole of the container water switch valve 32. The specific structure of the second water switch elastic valve core 321 belongs to the current technology. The main body of the water flow control valve 4 is fixedly installed on the reverse side of the fuselage shell component 1 through a screw assembly. The third water joint 43 passes through the joint through-hole 13 and protrudes into the recessed part 11. The first water joint 41 and the second water joint 42 are arranged on the reverse side of the fuselage shell component 1. The third water joint 43 and the joint pair socket 31 are detachably connected in a male-female pair and sealed. A clamping rubber sealing ring is sleeved on the third water joint 43. After the third water joint 43 is inserted into the joint pair socket 31, the rubber sealing ring is used to seal the gap between them to prevent water leakage, thereby enabling the third water joint 43 and the joint pair socket 31 to be inserted and sealed.
[0031] When the third water joint 43 and the joint pair socket 31 are inserted and sealed, the first water switch elastic valve core 431 and the second water switch elastic valve core 321 basically collide with each other with equal force to push open their respective valves, so that the internal water channels of the water flow control valve 4 are connected to the water storage chamber 201.
[0032] The container water level detection device 6 is vertically arranged on the reverse side of the fuselage shell component 1. The bottom of the container water level detection device 6 is hermetically connected to a water communication pipe fitting 601 through a connection structure such as a cable tie or a clip or a tight insertion. The other end of the water communication pipe fitting 601 is hermetically connected to the second water joint 42 through a connection structure such as a cable tie or a clip or a tight insertion and is connected to the internal water channel of the water flow control valve 4. After entering from the first water joint 41, the water is synchronously divided into the water storage chamber 201 and the inside of the container water level detection device 6. The water level in the water storage chamber 201 and the water level inside the container water level detection device 6 rise and fall synchronously. The container water level detection device 6 estimates the water level in the water storage chamber 201 by detecting the water level inside itself.
[0033] When storing water, the electric water inlet switch valve 7 is opened, and water enters the internal water channel of the water flow control valve 4 through the first pipe fitting A and the first water joint 41. The water in the internal water channel of the water flow control valve 4 is divided into two parts through the second water joint 42 and the water connection pipe fitting 601. One part flows to the container water level detection device 6, and the water in the internal water channel of the water flow control valve 4 is divided into another part through the third water joint 43 and the container water switch valve 32 and flows to the water storage cavity 201. The water level in the water storage cavity 201 rises and falls synchronously with the internal water level of the container water level detection device 6. When the container water level detection device 6 detects that the water level has risen to the set / specified water level, it is presumed that the water level in the water storage cavity 201 has also reached the specified water level, indicating that the required water storage volume has been reached. The container water level detection device 6 feeds back the detection result to the water dispenser controller 5, and the water dispenser controller 5 controls the electric water inlet switch valve 7 to close to maintain the water storage volume in the water storage cavity 201;
[0034] After the water stored in the water storage spare container 2 is used up, when the water storage spare container 2 is placed on the container placement platform 12 again, after the container water valve device 3 and the water flow control valve 4 are inserted and sealed in a butt joint manner, the water inside the container water level detection device 6 at a high water level flows back to the water storage cavity 201, and the water level of the container water level detection device 6 becomes lower again. When the water dispenser controller 5 detects through the container water level detection device 6 that the water level is lower than the set water level, the water dispenser controller 5 controls the electric water inlet switch valve 7 to open for water inlet to store water in the water storage cavity 201 of the water storage spare container 2, and the water storage is used in a cycle.
[0035] Generally, the maximum water storage volume of the water storage cavity 201 is 80% of the volume of the water storage cavity 201, and some space is reserved without filling it up to prevent overflow.
[0036] When the water storage spare container 2 is separated from the third water joint 43, the third water joint 43 is pulled out from the joint insertion hole 31, and the water switch elastic valve core 431 and the water switch elastic valve core 321 pop out respectively to close their corresponding valves and close the water holes. After their respective valves are closed, it can prevent the third water joint 43 and the container water switch valve 32 from leaking water.
[0037] Further improvement of the preferred technical solution: The container water level detection device 6 includes a water level cylinder 61 and a water level detection sensor 62. The height of the water level cylinder 61 is approximately the same as the height of the water storage spare container 2, and they are set to be basically at the same height. The water level cylinder 61 is erected, and the bottom joint of the water level cylinder 61 is tightly inserted and sealed with a water connection pipe fitting 601, and the water connection pipe fitting 601 is a soft rubber tube; a ventilation hole 63 is opened at the top of the water level cylinder 61 for the rise and fall of water; the water level detection sensor 62 is hermetically inserted through the top of the water level cylinder 61 and sealed with a rubber sealing ring or glue, and the water level detection sensor 62 is used to detect the height of the internal water level of the water level cylinder 61;
[0038] The water dispenser controller 5 controls the water flow on / off of the electric water inlet switch valve 7 based on the water level value feedback by the water level detection sensor 62; when the water level value feedback by the water level detection sensor 62 reaches the preset value, the water dispenser controller 5 controls the closing of the electric water inlet switch valve 7; when the water level value feedback by the water level detection sensor 62 is lower than the preset value, the water dispenser controller 5 controls the opening of the electric water inlet switch valve 7 for water replenishment.
[0039] The above structure is simple, easy to detect, accurate in detection, and easy to produce and assemble.
[0040] Further improvement of the preferred technical solution: A water storage and standby device for a water dispenser further includes an electric pumping device (not shown in the figure); the pipe fitting joint is a three-way pipe fitting joint 9; the three-way pipe fitting joint 9 is made of plastic;
