Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of drinking water vending equipment, and particularly relates to a barreled water water receiving structure and a vending device with this structure. Background Art

[0002] The utility model patent with the publication number of CN221686994U discloses a device for bulk selling of barreled water, which can sell barreled water in a bulk selling manner.

[0003] The above device inverts the barreled water on the water receiving mechanism (commonly known as the smart seat) to achieve the downward flow of water. When the worker moves and inverts the barreled water on the water receiving mechanism, at the moment when the sealing cap at the mouth of the barreled water bucket is punctured, the water will flow out and stay in the water receiving mechanism. When the worker carries the barreled water, the hand needs to hold the neck of the bucket, and the neck of the bucket is placed in the water receiving mechanism and wetted by water, which will cause a certain degree of pollution. Although the barreled water still needs to go through multiple purification and disinfection links before bulk selling, the water still comes into contact with more components, there is a certain degree of pollution, and it will also increase the burden of subsequent purification treatment links, and the sanitary condition needs to be further improved.

[0004] In addition, since there are multiple water receiving mechanisms in the above device, repeated disassembly and assembly are required during maintenance and replacement. Especially at the connection with the pipeline, it is mostly in a bolted fastening connection method. This fastening connection method requires workers to perform repetitive operations, which is time-consuming and inconvenient, and the maintenance disassembly and assembly takes a long time, which has a certain impact on the normal use of the vending machine.

[0005] Therefore, it is necessary to improve the water receiving mechanism in the existing device to achieve better sanitary effects and more convenient maintenance operations. Content of the Utility Model

[0006] The utility model provides a barreled water water receiving structure and a vending device with this structure to improve the sanitary effect and maintenance convenience in order to solve the technical problems of certain sanitary drawbacks and inconvenient maintenance existing in the existing water receiving mechanism.

[0007] In order to achieve the above purpose, the technical solution adopted by the utility model is as follows:

[0008] On the one hand, a barreled water water receiving structure is provided, including a placing seat. The top end of the placing seat is provided with an open end for accommodating the neck of the water bucket to be inserted adaptively. A through-flow pipe is fixedly arranged in the inner cavity of the placing seat. One end of the through-flow pipe is inserted into the mouth of the water bucket, and the other end penetrates through the placing seat and communicates with the outside.

[0009] The outer diameter of the through-flow pipe gradually expands from the end inserted into the mouth of the water bucket to the end away from the mouth of the water bucket.

[0010] Preferably, the outer diameter of the flow tube near the bottom end of the placing seat is larger than the inner diameter of the bucket mouth.

[0011] Preferably, the axial length of the placing seat is greater than the axial length of the bucket neck.

[0012] Preferably, a docking plate placed outside the placing seat is fixedly provided at one end of the flow tube away from the bucket mouth.

[0013] Preferably, the thickness of the surface of the docking plate facing the placing seat gradually increases from the outer peripheral direction to the central direction.

[0014] Preferably, at least one annular groove for placing a sealing ring is provided on the docking surface of the docking plate.

[0015] Preferably, a drain pipe communicating with the outside is provided at the bottom end of the placing seat.

[0016] Preferably, a skirt portion extending in the outer peripheral direction is provided at the open end of the placing seat.

[0017] Preferably, a chamfer portion adapted to the joint is provided at the joint of the skirt portion and the bucket.

[0018] On the other hand, a vending device is provided, including a vending machine cabinet, and a bracket for carrying barreled water is provided inside the vending machine cabinet;

[0019] A plurality of the above-mentioned barreled water water receiving structures are provided on the bracket.

[0020] Due to the adoption of the above technical solution, the utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0021] Compared with the traditional water receiving mechanism, the structure of the utility model is more simplified and compact, with fewer parts, and can be quickly disassembled and assembled by using fasteners (such as hoop), which is more convenient for workers to operate.

[0022] Importantly, after the barreled water is placed, the flow tube can be inserted into the bucket mouth by using its tapered shape with a smaller upper part and a larger lower part, and seal the bucket mouth, so that the water in the bucket cannot contact the outside gas and liquid, thereby improving the sanitary condition. That is, the water in the bucket directly flows out through the pipeline without contacting the outside. In the traditional method, the water first enters the water receiving bin, and during this process, affected by the liquid level height and pressure, the water in the water receiving bin will contact the bucket mouth end, causing pollution. After adopting this structure, the beneficial effect of directly flowing out of the water and directly discharging the waste water is formed.

[0023] In addition, at the moment when the flow tube is inserted into the bucket mouth, a small amount of water will flow out, and these waters will be naturally discharged through the drain pipe, and will not accumulate in the placing seat to become stagnant water, nor will they contact the bucket mouth and the internal water, ensuring that the placing seat is dry and not humid.

[0038] Embodiment 1

[0039] Referring to Att Figure 1 to Att Figure 3 , this embodiment provides a water receiving structure for barreled water, whose structure is more simplified and compact, and also adopts a water path completely different from the traditional water receiving method. It can achieve a good sanitary effect that the water in the barrel does not contact the outside world, and realizes two flow paths for waste water and purified water, with better sanitary conditions.

[0040] Specifically, it includes a resting seat 100, whose structure is embodied as a container with an open top, and is made of stainless steel as a whole, which can achieve better anti-corrosion and antibacterial effects. The top of the resting seat 100 is provided with an open end 101 for the neck 501 of the water bucket 500 to be inserted in a fitting manner. That is to say, the barreled water can be inserted into the inner cavity 103 of the resting seat 100 with the neck 501 through the open end 101 in an inverted posture, forming an inverted sitting posture of the barreled water, so as to facilitate the downward gravity flow of the internal water.

[0041] After the barreled water is inserted in an inverted manner, a cross-flow pipe 200 is fixedly installed in the inner cavity 103 of the resting seat 100. It can be a tubular structure with both ends penetrating, or a tubular structure with an opening on the circumferential surface. In short, both ends of the cross-flow pipe need to be in a penetrating state to facilitate the convection of water. One end of the cross-flow pipe 200 is inserted into the bucket mouth 502 of the water bucket to achieve communication with the water in the bucket, and the other end penetrates through the resting seat 100 and communicates with the outside world, so that the water in the bucket can flow outwards. This method is relatively similar to the traditional intelligent seat water receiving method.

[0042] The improvement of this embodiment is that the outer diameter of the cross-flow pipe 200 gradually increases from the end inserted into the bucket mouth 502 of the water bucket to the end away from the bucket mouth 502 of the water bucket. That is, taking the direction shown in the attached drawing as an example, it has a tapered structure with a thinner upper part and a thicker lower part.

[0043] This structure is adopted to utilize the conical structure of the flow-through pipe 200 to seal the mouth 502 of the water bucket 500, preventing the water in the bucket from flowing out at the insertion gap between the mouth 502 and the flow-through pipe 200. Specifically, when the bottled water is placed upside down, its weight is relatively heavy. Under the pressure of gravity, the inner diameter of the mouth 502 can be sealed and inserted with the outer diameter of the flow-through pipe 200 to the greatest extent. The heavier the weight of the water bucket, the denser the fit between the two. That is, the weight of the bottled water itself is used to achieve a tight fit at the docking gap, thus preventing water from flowing out through the gap.

[0044] The traditional flow-through pipe 200 (also known as the smart column, water receiving column, etc.) has a cylindrical structure, and there is an obvious gap at the insertion part with the mouth 502. After the water flows out, it will inevitably contact the outer peripheral surface of the mouth, resulting in pollution.

[0045] In addition, it should be noted that when the water in the water bucket runs out, since the lowest height of the mouth is lower than the highest height of the flow-through pipe 200, a small amount of remaining water will accumulate at the mouth. When the worker takes out the empty water bucket, the gap between the mouth and the flow-through pipe 200 gradually expands, and this part of the remaining water will continue to flow out to the bottom of the inner cavity 103 of the placement seat 100. This part of the remaining water will not enter the main pipeline from the flow-through pipe 200, so it will not pollute the water in the main pipeline. As for this part of the remaining water, it can be manually cleaned or drained separately.

[0046] This embodiment utilizes the conical structure of the flow-through pipe 200 to achieve the purpose of preventing the water in the bucket from contacting the outside world, thereby forming a closed-loop flow.

[0047] Of course, in this closed-loop flow, as the water in the bucket flows out, air will enter the bucket through this closed loop to achieve pressure balance. As for the air, it enters the water storage tank through the air inlet pipe with a filter, and the water storage tank is connected to the placement seat 100 through a pipeline, and the gas can enter the water bucket 500 along the pipeline. That is to say, water and air form a convection mode in the same path and in opposite directions to meet the pressure balance.

[0048] As a further improvement of this embodiment, the outer diameter of the flow-through pipe 200 near the bottom end of the placement seat 100 is larger than the inner diameter of the mouth 502 of the water bucket.

[0049] The reason for adopting the above structure is to leave a certain distance between the mouth 502 and the bottom end of the inner cavity 103 of the placement seat 100, and this distance is for temporarily accumulating the waste water. Because, at the moment when the flow-through pipe 200 is inserted into the mouth 502, a part of the water in the bucket will naturally flow out due to gravity. This part of the water cannot enter the flow-through pipe 200 and can only accumulate in the inner cavity 103 of the placement seat 100, that is, the waste water. These waters that cannot be discharged become stagnant water. Although the worker can manually clean it to achieve a clean and hygienic condition, it requires manual operation, which is relatively inconvenient.

[0050] To reduce the manual workload and achieve the purpose of automatic wastewater drainage, a drain pipe 400 communicating with the outside is provided at the bottom end of the placing seat 100. In this way, the accumulated wastewater will gradually drain naturally under the action of gravity, and the placing seat 100 can be kept dry without manual operation, realizing a non-interfering flow path for wastewater and purified water.

[0051] At the same time, the axial length of the placing seat 100 is greater than the axial length of the bucket neck 501. This structure is also to leave a certain distance between the bucket mouth 502 and the bottom end of the inner cavity 103 of the placing seat 100, so as to leave a certain space for temporarily storing wastewater. If the distance in this part is too small, it is easy for the bucket mouth to contact the wastewater. Although it will not enter the cross-flow pipe 200, there are still certain hygienic hazards.

[0052] Embodiment 2

[0053] Reference appendix Figure 2 and appendix Figure 3 In order to achieve the purpose of quickly docking pipelines, a docking plate 300 placed outside the placing seat 100 is fixedly provided at one end of the cross-flow pipe 200 away from the bucket mouth 502 of the bucket. By using this docking plate 300, quick docking and connection with pipelines can be achieved. The traditional connection method is a bolt fastening connection method. When disassembling, assembling and maintaining, workers need to fasten a large number of bolts, and the repeated operation is time-consuming and inconvenient, affecting the normal use of the equipment.

[0054] Its specific shape is that the docking plate 300 is a circular plate-like structure, and its docking surface is in a flat state, which is conducive to being attached and docked with the plane of another docking plate. On its other side, that is, the side of the docking plate 300 facing the placing seat 100, the thickness gradually increases from the outer peripheral direction to the central direction. That is to say, its overall structure is conical. Another docking plate docked with it also has the same structure as it, and the two are in a mirror corresponding state in opposite directions. In this way, fasteners (such as vacuum clamps, also called clamping type vacuum quick-release flanges) can be used to fasten the two, and the conical surfaces 301 on the two are used to achieve fitting with the conical surface of the clamp. The tighter the clamp is tightened, the closer the docking plate 300 fits. In this way, operations such as tightening bolts are not required, and disassembly, assembly and replacement are more convenient. Only one bolt on the clamp needs to be turned.

[0055] Of course, at least one annular groove 302 for placing a sealing ring is provided on the docking surface of the docking plate 300 to improve the sealing effect of the docking and prevent water from overflowing.

[0056] Preferably, the open end 101 of the placing seat 100 is provided with a skirt portion 110 extending in the peripheral direction, which plays a role of limiting and supporting, facilitating that it will not fall off the placing hole 601 on the bracket 600 during placement. A chamfer portion 111 adapted to the fitting portion is provided at the fitting portion between the skirt portion 110 and the water bucket 500, so as to contact the outer surface of the water bucket as angularly free as possible and will not scratch or knock against the water bucket.

[0057] Embodiment III

[0058] Referring to the attached Figure 4 As shown in the figure, this embodiment provides a vending device, including a vending machine cabinet (not shown in the figure), which is a sealed box body with a door. Inside the vending machine cabinet, there is a bracket 600 for carrying the water bucket 500, which mainly plays a role of supporting and lifting the water bucket 500; several above-mentioned barreled water water receiving structures are provided on the bracket 600, which are arranged in an orderly manner, and the water in each water bucket enters the water storage tank in parallel or in series for standby. The bracket 600 is also provided with placing holes 601 having the same number as the water buckets, and their positions also correspond to the positions of the water buckets up and down. The placing seat 100 is inserted into the placing hole 601 and is limited on the bracket 600 by the skirt 110 with a larger diameter to prevent falling.

[0059] Due to the adoption of the above technical solution, the utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0060] Compared with the traditional water receiving mechanism, the structure of the utility model is more simplified and compact, with fewer parts, and can be quickly disassembled and assembled by using fasteners (such as clamps), without repeatedly disassembling and assembling multiple bolts, which is more convenient for workers to operate. The whole is made of stainless steel, rust-proof and corrosion-resistant, with a smooth surface, and the water is easy to flow and not easy to adhere. The skirt, placing seat and docking plate can be integrally formed, and the whole is more beautiful and compact.

[0061] In addition, the stainless steel material is hard and heavy. When the relatively heavy water bucket is placed manually, it is inevitable to generate a large pressing force. The placing seat made of stainless steel can also provide good impact resistance, is not easy to be knocked and damaged, and has a longer service life. While the traditional water receiving bin and / or water receiving mechanism are made of plastic materials (such as a smart seat), and it is easy to be damaged when the worker places the water bucket carelessly, and it takes time to replace, so it is more inconvenient.

[0062] Importantly, after the barreled water is placed, the flow-through pipe can be inserted into the barrel mouth by virtue of its tapered shape that is thinner at the top and thicker at the bottom, and can seal the barrel mouth, so that the water in the barrel cannot come into contact with the outside gas and liquid, thereby improving the hygiene condition. That is, the water in the barrel directly flows out through the pipeline without contacting the outside. In the traditional method, the water first enters the water receiving bin. During this process, affected by the liquid level height and pressure, the liquid level height of the water in the water receiving bin will gradually rise until it is flush with the barrel mouth end to ensure the pressure balance inside and outside the barrel. At this time, the water will contact the barrel mouth end, and the bacteria on its surface will contaminate the water body. This water directly enters the water storage tank through the main pipeline, so pollution will be caused. After adopting this structure, the beneficial effect of forming a single-way direct outflow of water and a separate outflow of wastewater is achieved.

[0063] That is to say, in the traditional water receiving mechanism, the water needs to flow out of the barrel and then enter another water receiving bin, and the water inside will touch the outer surface of the barrel mouth, so it is easy to pollute the water body.

[0064] In addition, at the moment when the flow-through pipe is inserted into the barrel mouth, a small amount of water will flow out. These waters will naturally drain through the drain pipe, will not accumulate in the placement seat to become stagnant water, and will not contact the barrel mouth and the water inside, ensuring that the placement seat is dry and not damp, forming two non-interfering paths.

[0065] Although the present utility model has been described above with reference to the embodiments, however, various improvements can be made to it and components therein can be replaced with equivalents without departing from the scope of the present utility model. In particular, as long as there is no structural conflict, the various features in the embodiments disclosed by the present utility model can be combined with each other in any way. The reason for not exhaustively describing the situations of these combinations in this specification is only to save space and resources. Therefore, the present utility model is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed in the text, but includes all technical solutions falling within the scope of the claims.
