The water purifier body 1 can be connected to a water tank and a faucet through a water pipe, so that the kitchen water can be filtered and purified through the internal filter element. The model of the water purifier body 1 is WK-Q4RO3B-4. Since the water purification principle of the water purifier body 1 is prior art, it will not be elaborated in this application.
[0020] A window 6 is opened at the rear side of the upper end of the base 4. A detection box 8 is inserted into the window 6. Hollow seats 11 are fixed on both the left and right sides of the upper end of the detection box 8. A baffle 12 is slidably connected inside the hollow seat 11. A spring 19 is connected between the baffle 12 and the inside of the hollow seat 11. The detection box 8 can be inserted into the window 6 from bottom to top. Press the baffle 12 and move it into the hollow seat 11. In this way, the baffle 12 will compress the spring 19. Then when the baffle 12 moves up to be above the window 6, it will pop out through the spring 19. Then release the detection box 8 so that the baffle 12 rests on both sides of the upper end of the window 6.
[0021] A slideway 20 is opened at the rear end of the hollow seat 11. An L-shaped connecting rod 13 is fixed at the rear end of the baffle 12. The rear part of the L-shaped connecting rod 13 extends out of the slideway 20 and is slidably connected with the slideway 20. A gear box 14 is fixed at the rear side of the upper end of the detection box 8. Guideways are opened at the front side of the left end and the rear side of the right end of the gear box 14. The end of the L-shaped connecting rod 13 extends into the guideway on the same side and is slidably connected with the guideway. A shaft rod 16 is connected by a bearing in the middle of the gear box 14. A gear 17 is fixed on the outer part of the shaft rod 16. A pair of racks 18 are symmetrically meshed on the front and rear sides of the gear 17. The end of the rack 18 is fixed to the L-shaped connecting rod 13 on the same side. The upper end of the shaft rod 16 penetrates through the gear box 14. A knob 15 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the shaft rod 16. When installing the detection box 8, only need to push one of the baffles 12. The baffle 12 drives the L-shaped connecting rod 13 to move. The L-shaped connecting rod 13 drives the rack 18 to move. The rack 18 meshes with the gear 17, and makes the gear 17 drive the other rack 18 to move in the opposite direction. In this way, when pushing one of the baffles 12, the other baffle 12 will be synchronously retracted into the other hollow seat 11, so as to facilitate the installation of the detection box 8.

After the detection box 8 is installed, the water level sensor 10 is connected to the main control board of the water purifier body 1. In this way, when the filter element in the water purifier body 1 leaks water, the water falls onto the base 4, slides along the inclined plate 5 towards the window 6, and then the water retaining rib 7 can block the water to prevent the water from flowing to the rear of the window 6 and accumulating. After the water flows into the window 6, it will flow into the detection box 8. At this time, if the water level in the detection box 8 reaches the water level sensor 10, the water level sensor 10 transmits a signal to the main control board, and the main control board controls the entire water purifier body 1 to shut down. Then, when the user finds that there is no water coming out of the faucet, the water purifier body 1 can be repaired in time. In this way, a large area of water stains on the ground can be avoided, thus saving water resources.
