Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of drinking water equipment, and in particular to a drinking water equipment. Background Art

[0002] During the process of using a water dispenser by users, the water outlet parameters of the water dispenser are usually pre-set in advance. During the process of receiving water with a water cup, due to problems such as incorrect user parameter settings or system errors of the water dispenser, users do not know whether the current water outlet parameters are consistent with the pre-set water outlet parameters, which brings inconvenience to the use of the water dispenser by users. Summary of the Utility Model

[0003] The utility model aims to solve one of the technical problems existing in the prior art or related technologies.

[0004] In view of this, the utility model provides a drinking water equipment, including: a box body, on which a water outlet and a water receiving area are provided; a sensing member, arranged on the box body, and when the sensing member senses that a container is placed in the water receiving area, the water outlet is in an open state; a lighting member, arranged on the box body, and when the sensing member senses that a container is placed in the water receiving area, the lighting member illuminates the water receiving area, and the lighting color of the lighting member is associated with the water outlet parameters of the water outlet.

[0005] A water receiving area is arranged on the box body, and users can place a water cup in the water receiving area. A part of the water outlet extends into the water receiving area, and the water cup can receive the water discharged from the water outlet.

[0006] A sensing member is further arranged on the box body, and the sensing member can detect whether a water cup is placed in the water receiving area. If the sensing member detects that the water cup is placed in the water receiving area, the sensing member can transmit a sensing signal to the controller of the drinking water equipment, and the controller controls the water outlet to switch to an open state, so as to realize the function of automatic water discharge, without the need for users to manually open the water outlet, simplifying the operation of users. When the water cup is removed and the sensing member does not detect the water cup, the controller controls the water outlet to stop discharging water.

[0007] The lighting member is installed on the box body, and when the lighting member is powered on, the lighting member can emit light to illuminate the water receiving area. When the sensing member detects that the water cup is placed in the water receiving area, the lighting member emits light. The operations of the lighting member and the water outlet are both associated with the detection result of the sensing member. Therefore, when the lighting member emits light, the water outlet also discharges water at the same time. The lighting member can emit different colors, and the lighting color of the lighting member is associated with the water outlet parameters of the water outlet, that is, when the water outlet parameters of the water outlet are different, the lighting color of the lighting member is also different.

[0008] Before receiving water, the user can preset the water outlet parameters in advance. If the water outlet parameters of the current water outlet are the same as those the user wants to set, the lighting color of the lighting element should correspond to the water outlet parameters the user wants to set. However, during the water receiving process, if the user finds that the lighting color of the lighting element does not correspond to the water outlet parameters to be set, it may be that the user has made a wrong setting or the system has a fault. At this time, the lighting color of the lighting element plays a reminder role for the user, and the user can adjust the water outlet parameters in time, which provides convenience for the user to use the drinking water equipment. For example, when the water outlet temperature is different from the corresponding lighting color, the user can promptly discover the abnormal water outlet temperature, thereby avoiding scalding the user.

[0009] In addition, the drinking water equipment according to the above technical solution provided by the present invention may further have the following additional technical features:

[0010] In some technical solutions, optionally, the water outlet parameters include at least one of the following: water outlet temperature, expected water output, and remaining water output.

[0011] In this technical solution, the water outlet parameters at least include the water outlet temperature, the expected water output, and the remaining water output.

[0012] The water outlet temperature refers to the temperature of the water discharged from the water outlet. In order to intuitively reflect the currently set water outlet temperature, the lighting element emits a color corresponding to the water outlet temperature, and the user can quickly confirm whether the water outlet temperature meets the expectation through the lighting color before receiving water.

[0013] The expected water output refers to the total amount of water that the user sets and hopes to be discharged from the water outlet. When the user sets the expected water output, the drinking water equipment can preset a corresponding lighting color according to the set water volume. During the water outlet process, the color of the lighting element changes dynamically.

[0014] The remaining water output refers to the amount of water that has not been discharged during the current water outlet process. The color change of the lighting element gradually changes as the remaining water output decreases. The user only needs to observe the color of the lighting element to quickly understand the general situation of the current remaining water output, and thus adjust the water receiving speed or replace the water receiving container as needed to avoid overflow or insufficient water volume.

[0015] In some technical solutions, optionally, the water receiving area is provided with an open mouth; the box body includes: a first plate body, the first plate body is disposed opposite to the open mouth; a second plate body, the first side of the second plate body is connected to the first plate body, and the included angle between the second plate body and the first plate body is greater than 90°; a third plate body, the first side of the third plate body is connected to the first plate body, and the included angle between the third plate body and the first plate body is greater than 90°, and the open mouth is located between the second side of the second plate body and the second side of the third plate body.

[0016] In this technical solution, the water receiving area is provided with an open mouth through which the user can easily put in and take out a container to receive the water discharged from the water outlet.

[0017] The box body includes a first plate body, a second plate body, and a third plate body. The first plate body serves as the main supporting structure of the water receiving area and is disposed opposite to the open mouth.

[0018] The second plate body extends from one side of the first plate body, forming an angle greater than 90° with the first plate body. This design not only increases the overall stability of the box body but also provides an installation space for the side light strip.

[0019] The third plate body extends from the other side of the first plate body, also forming an angle greater than 90° with the first plate body. The second plate body and the third plate body jointly enclose the side of the water receiving area, with the open mouth located between them, forming a convenient operation space.

[0020] The light-emitting element is installed on the inner side of the second plate body or the third plate body. This design cleverly utilizes the side space of the box body, neither affecting the normal use of the water receiving area nor achieving a good lighting effect.

[0021] By installing the lighting module using the side space of the box body, the additional space above or below the water receiving area is avoided, making the entire drinking water device more compact and space-saving.

[0022] Arranging the light-emitting elements on the side can evenly illuminate the water receiving area, enabling the user to clearly see the position and water volume of the container when receiving water and improving the user experience.

[0023] In some technical solutions, optionally, a part of the light-emitting elements is connected to the first side of the second plate body, and another part of the light-emitting elements is connected to the first side of the third plate body.

[0024] In this technical solution, the light-emitting elements of the drinking water device are distributed on two sides of the box body, that is, connected to the first sides of the second plate body and the third plate body. This design not only enhances the lighting effect of the water receiving area but also makes the entire drinking water device more visually harmonious and unified.

[0025] A part of the light-emitting elements is installed on the first side of the second plate body, that is, the side where the second plate body is connected to the first plate body. These light-emitting elements can extend along the length direction of the second plate body to form a light strip, illuminating the side of the water receiving area.

[0026] Another part of the light-emitting elements is connected to the first side of the third plate body, and these light-emitting elements echo the light-emitting elements on the second plate body side, jointly constituting an illumination system surrounding the water receiving area.

[0027] The light-emitting elements are distributed on both sides of the water receiving area, capable of illuminating the water receiving area in all directions, reducing shadows and blind spots, enabling users to clearly see the position and water volume of the container when receiving water.

[0028] Through the layout of the light-emitting elements, the sense of space of the water receiving area can be visually expanded, making the entire drinking device appear more spacious and bright.

[0029] In some technical solutions, optionally, the sensing element includes: a near-field communication module provided on the bottom wall of the water receiving area; a near-field communication tag for attaching to the container, and when the near-field communication module detects the near-field communication tag, the light-emitting element illuminates the water receiving area.

[0030] In this technical solution, the sensing element includes a near-field communication module and a near-field communication tag, and the near-field communication module can detect the near-field communication module.

[0031] The near-field communication module is provided on the bottom wall of the water receiving area. As the initiating end of near-field communication, it can identify and read the container with a near-field communication tag placed in the water receiving area.

[0032] The near-field communication tag is attached to the container, serving as the identity identifier and information storage carrier of the container.

[0033] The user places the container with a near-field communication tag at the designated position in the water receiving area. The near-field communication module automatically detects and identifies the near-field communication tag on the container. Once the tag is successfully identified, the near-field communication module will read the information stored in the tag.

[0034] The near-field communication module transmits the read information to the control system of the drinking device. The control system performs corresponding processing based on the read information, such as adjusting the water output, recording the drinking record, etc.

[0035] After the near-field communication module successfully identifies the near-field communication tag, the control system will trigger the light-emitting element to illuminate the water receiving area, serving as a feedback signal for successful identification and also providing a clear lighting environment for users to facilitate observing the water receiving process.

[0036] The utility model realizes wireless data transmission between the machine and the container through near-field communication technology, without physical connection, which is convenient and fast.

[0037] In some technical solutions, optionally, the drinking device further includes: a display panel provided on the cabinet, and the display panel is used to display at least one of time information, weather information, water temperature, and water output.

[0038] In this technical solution, the drinking water device further includes a display panel, which is provided on the box body and is used to display at least one of time information, weather information, water temperature, and water output. The display panel not only improves the practicality of the device but also provides a more comprehensive information display for users, making the drinking process more convenient and comfortable.

[0039] In some technical solutions, optionally, the drinking water device further includes: a decorative panel, which is provided on the box body, and one of the display panel and the decorative panel is located at the top of the water receiving area, and the other is located at the bottom of the water receiving area.

[0040] In this embodiment, considering the overall aesthetics of the drinking water device and the user experience, the present utility model adds a decorative panel to the drinking water device, and the decorative panel can play a role in transition and coordination.

[0041] The decorative panel is provided on the box body, and one of the display panel and the decorative panel is located at the top of the water receiving area, and the other is located at the bottom of the water receiving area. When the display panel is located at the top or bottom of the water receiving area, the decorative panel can be set at the opposite position to form a visual balance and transition. In this way, when the display panel is turned off, the decorative panel can reduce the sense of abruptness and make the whole look more harmonious.

[0042] In some technical solutions, optionally, the drinking water device further includes: a human body sensing module, which is provided on the box body. When the human body sensing module is in a triggered state, the display panel lights up, and when the human body sensing module is in a non-triggered state, the display panel turns off.

[0043] In this technical solution, the present utility model sets a human body sensing module in the drinking water device. The human body sensing module can automatically detect whether there is human activity around and control the lighting and extinguishing of the display panel accordingly, so as to provide a more convenient and energy-saving use experience.

[0044] The human body sensing module is provided on the box body. When someone approaches the drinking water device, the human body sensing module will detect the presence of the human body and trigger a signal, causing the display panel to light up automatically. In this way, users can clearly see key information such as time, water temperature, and water output without manual operation.

[0045] If the human body sensing module does not detect human activity within a period of time, that is, when it is in a non-triggered state, the human body sensing module will automatically send a signal to turn off the display panel. This helps to save electric energy, extend the service life of the device, and reduce unnecessary visual interference.

[0046] In some technical solutions, optionally, the side of the box body is provided with an in - concave handle.

[0047] In this technical solution, the utility model is provided with a concave handle on the side of the drinking water device. The concave handle not only facilitates the user to move the drinking water device, but also can closely adhere to the box body when not in use, avoiding additional space occupation.

[0048] In some technical solutions, optionally, the drinking water device further includes: an ice outlet, which is arranged on the box body and extends into the water receiving area.

[0049] In this technical solution, the drinking water device adds a design of an ice outlet. Specifically, the ice outlet is arranged on the box body and extends into the water receiving area. Through the ice outlet, the drinking water device is no longer limited to providing only hot water or cold water, but can also provide ice cubes. It provides great convenience for occasions where cold drinks are needed. The user can directly take out the ice cubes from the device without additional preparation or waiting.

[0050] The design that the ice outlet extends into the water receiving area enables the ice cubes to directly fall into the cup placed by the user, reducing the complexity of the user's operation and improving the convenience of use. The user does not need to additionally set up an ice receiving device outside the device, nor worry about the ice cubes scattering.

Detailed implementation manners

[0071] To better understand the above-mentioned objects, features, and advantages of the present utility model, the present utility model will be further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. It should be noted that, without conflict, the embodiments of the present application and the features in the embodiments may be combined with each other.

[0072] In the following description, many specific details are set forth in order to provide a thorough understanding of the present utility model. However, the present utility model may be implemented in other ways different from those described herein. Therefore, the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited by the specific embodiments disclosed below.

[0073] Next, refer to Figures 1 to 16 to describe a drinking water device 100 provided according to some embodiments of the present utility model.

[0074] As Figure 1 and Figure 2 shown, in some embodiments, the present utility model provides a drinking water device 100. The drinking water device 100 includes: a box body 110, on which a water outlet 112 and a water receiving area 114 are provided; a sensing member 130, provided on the box body 110, and when the sensing member 130 senses that a container 200 is placed in the water receiving area 114, the water outlet 112 is in an open state; a lighting member 136, provided on the box body 110, and when the sensing member 130 senses that a container 200 is placed in the water receiving area 114, the lighting member 136 illuminates the water receiving area 114, and the lighting color of the lighting member 136 is associated with the water outlet parameter of the water outlet 112.

[0075] In this embodiment, for the drinking water device 100 proposed by the present utility model, a water receiving area 114 is provided on the box body 110. The user can place the container 200 in the water receiving area 114. A part of the water outlet 112 extends into the water receiving area 114, and the container 200 can receive the water discharged from the water outlet 112.

[0076] A sensing member 130 is also provided on the box body 110. The sensing member 130 can detect whether the container 200 is placed in the water receiving area 114. If the sensing member 130 detects that the container 200 is placed in the water receiving area 114, the sensing member 130 can transmit a sensing signal to the controller of the drinking water device 100, and the controller controls the water outlet 112 to switch to an open state, thereby realizing the function of automatic water discharge without the user manually opening the water outlet 112, simplifying the user's operation. When the container 200 is removed and the sensing member 130 does not detect the container 200, the controller controls the water outlet 112 to stop discharging water.

[0077] The light-emitting member 136 is installed on the box body 110. When the light-emitting member 136 is powered on, the light-emitting member 136 can emit light, thereby illuminating the water receiving area 114. When the sensing member 130 detects that the container 200 is placed in the water receiving area 114, the light-emitting member 136 emits light. The operations of the light-emitting member 136 and the water outlet 112 are both associated with the detection result of the sensing member 130. Therefore, when the light-emitting member 136 emits light, the water outlet 112 also discharges water simultaneously. The light-emitting member 136 can emit different colors, and the light-emitting color of the light-emitting member 136 is associated with the water discharge parameters of the water outlet 112, that is, when the water discharge parameters of the water outlet 112 are different, the light-emitting color of the light-emitting member 136 is also different.

[0078] Before receiving water, the user can preset the water discharge parameters in advance. If the current water discharge parameters of the water outlet 112 are the same as the water discharge parameters that the user wants to set, the light-emitting color of the light-emitting member 136 should correspond to the water discharge parameters that the user wants to set. However, during the water receiving process, if the user finds that the light-emitting color of the light-emitting member 136 does not correspond to the water discharge parameters that the user wants to set, it may be that the user has set it wrong or the system has a malfunction. At this time, the light-emitting color of the light-emitting member 136 plays a reminder role for the user, and the user can adjust the water discharge parameters in time, which provides convenience for the user to use the drinking water device 100. For example, when the water discharge temperature is different from the corresponding light-emitting color, the user can promptly discover that the water discharge temperature is abnormal, thereby avoiding scalding the user.

[0079] Such as Figure 4 and Figure 5 shown, in some embodiments, optionally, the water discharge parameters include at least one of the following: water discharge temperature, expected water discharge volume, and remaining water discharge volume.

[0080] In this embodiment, the water discharge parameters at least include the water discharge temperature, the expected water discharge volume, and the remaining water discharge volume. The water discharge temperature refers to the temperature of the water discharged from the water outlet 112.

[0081] In order to intuitively reflect the currently set water discharge temperature, the light-emitting member 136 will emit a color corresponding to the water discharge temperature. For example, blue represents cold water, green represents warm water, and red or orange represents hot water. In this way, the user can quickly confirm whether the water discharge temperature meets the expectation through the light-emitting color before receiving water.

[0082] If the user finds that the light-emitting color does not match the expected water discharge temperature, the user can adjust it through the control panel on the drinking water device 100 until the light-emitting color matches the expected water discharge temperature.

[0083] The expected water output refers to the total amount of water set by the user and expected to be discharged from the water outlet 112. When the user sets the expected water output, the drinking water device 100 can preset a corresponding luminous color according to the set water volume. During the water output process, the color of the luminous element 136 will dynamically change to reflect the ratio of the current amount of water discharged to the expected water output.

[0084] The remaining water output refers to the amount of water that has not been discharged during the current water output process. The color change of the light-emitting element 136 will gradually change as the remaining water output decreases. For example, when the remaining water output is sufficient, the light-emitting element 136 will appear bright blue or green, indicating that there is still a lot of water to be collected; as the remaining water output decreases, the color may gradually transition to yellow or orange, until it finally approaches red or dark red, indicating that the remaining water output is very little or is about to run out.

[0085] The user only needs to observe the color of the light-emitting element 136 to quickly understand the approximate current remaining water output, and thus adjust the water receiving speed or replace the water receiving container 200 as needed to avoid overflow or insufficient water.

[0086] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, in some embodiments, optionally, the water receiving area 114 is provided with an open port 118; the box body 110 includes: a first plate body 120, the first plate body 120 is arranged opposite to the open port 118; a second plate body 122, a first side of the second plate body 122 is connected to the first plate body 120, and the angle between the second plate body 122 and the first plate body 120 is greater than 90°; a third plate body 124, a first side of the third plate body 124 is connected to the first plate body 120, and the angle between the third plate body 124 and the first plate body 120 is greater than 90°, and the open port 118 is located between the second side of the second plate body 122 and the second side of the third plate body 124.

[0087] In this embodiment, the water receiving area 114 is provided with an open opening 118 , through which a user is allowed to easily put in and take out the container 200 , so as to receive water discharged from the water outlet 112 .

[0088] The box body 110 includes a first plate body 120, a second plate body 122 and a third plate body 124. The first plate body 120 is one of the main supporting structures of the water receiving area 114, and is arranged opposite to the open opening 118 to provide a stable bottom or rear support for the water receiving area 114.

[0089] The first side of the second plate 122 is connected to the first plate 120 , and an angle greater than 90° is formed between the second plate 122 and the first plate 120 . This design not only increases the overall stability of the box 110 , but also provides installation space for the side light emitting element 136 .

[0090] The third plate body 124 extends from the other side of the first plate body 120, and also forms an angle greater than 90° with the first plate body 120. The second plate body 122 and the third plate body 124 jointly enclose the side surface of the water receiving area 114, so that the open mouth 118 is located between the two, forming a relatively enclosed but convenient operation space.

[0091] A light emitting member 136 is installed on the inner side of the second plate body 122 or the third plate body 124. This design makes clever use of the side space of the box body 110, which not only does not affect the normal use of the water receiving area 114, but also can achieve a good lighting effect.

[0092] By installing the lighting module 156 using the side space of the box body 110, the additional space occupation above or below the water receiving area 114 is avoided, making the entire drinking water device 100 more compact and space-saving.

[0093] The design of the side light emitting member 136 can evenly illuminate the water receiving area 114, enabling the user to clearly see the position and water volume of the container 200 when receiving water, improving the user experience.

[0094] Specifically, the box body 110 further includes a back plate 128 and a housing 126. Through the back plate 128, the housing 126, the first plate body 120, the second plate body 122 and the third plate body 124, a complete box body 110 is formed.

[0095] Such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, in some embodiments, optionally, a part of the light emitting members 136 are connected to the first side of the second plate body 122, and another part of the light emitting members 136 are connected to the first side of the third plate body 124.

[0096] In this embodiment, the light emitting members 136 of the drinking water device 100 are distributed on two sides of the box body 110, that is, connected to the first sides of the second plate body 122 and the third plate body 124. This design not only enhances the lighting effect of the water receiving area 114, but also makes the entire drinking water device 100 more harmonious and unified visually.

[0097] A part of the light emitting members 136 are installed on the first side of the second plate body 122, that is, the side where the second plate body 122 is connected to the first plate body 120. These light emitting members 136 can extend along the length direction of the second plate body 122 to form a light strip, illuminating the side surface of the water receiving area 114.

[0098] Another part of the light emitting members 136 are connected to the first side of the third plate body 124, also located on its inner side or edge. These light emitting members 136 echo the light emitting members 136 on the side of the second plate body 122, jointly constituting an illumination system surrounding the water receiving area 114.

[0099] The light-emitting members 136 are distributed on both sides of the water receiving area 114, capable of illuminating the water receiving area 114 in all directions, reducing shadows and blind spots, and enabling users to clearly see the position and water volume of the container 200 when receiving water.

[0100] Through the layout of the light-emitting members 136, the sense of space of the water receiving area 114 can be visually enlarged, making the entire drinking water device 100 appear more spacious and bright.

[0101] Specifically, a part of the light-emitting members 136 are detachably connected to the first side of the second plate body 122, and another part of the light-emitting members 136 are detachably connected to the first side of the third plate body 124, facilitating the installation and maintenance of the light-emitting members 136.

[0102] As Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figure 3 shown, in some embodiments, optionally, the sensing member 130 includes: a near-field communication module 132 disposed on the bottom wall 116 of the water receiving area 114; a near-field communication tag 134 for attaching to the container 200. When the near-field communication module 132 detects the near-field communication tag 134, the light-emitting members 136 illuminate the water receiving area 114.

[0103] In this embodiment, the sensing member 130 includes a near-field communication module 132 and a near-field communication tag 134, and the near-field communication module 132 can detect the near-field communication module 132.

[0104] The near-field communication module 132 is disposed on the bottom wall 116 of the water receiving area 114, that is, the near-field communication module 132 is disposed at the bottom of the placement surface of the container 200. The near-field communication module 132, as the initiating end of near-field communication, can identify and read the container 200 with the near-field communication tag 134 placed in the water receiving area 114.

[0105] The near-field communication tag 134 is attached to the container 200 as the identity identifier and information storage carrier of the container 200.

[0106] The user places the container 200 with the near-field communication tag 134 at the designated position in the water receiving area 114.

[0107] The near-field communication module 132 automatically detects and identifies the near-field communication tag 134 on the container 200. Once the tag is successfully identified, the near-field communication module 132 will read the information stored in the tag.

[0108] The near-field communication module 132 transmits the read information to the control system of the drinking water device 100.

[0109] The control system performs corresponding processing according to the read information, such as adjusting the water output, recording drinking records, etc.

[0110] After the near - field communication module 132 successfully identifies the near - field communication tag 134, the control system triggers the light - emitting member 136 to illuminate the water receiving area 114. As a feedback signal for successful identification, it also provides a clear lighting environment for the user to facilitate observing the water receiving process.

[0111] The utility model realizes wireless data transmission between the machine and the container 200 through NFC technology, without physical connection, which is convenient and fast.

[0112] Specifically, NFC refers to Near Field Communication, that is, near - field communication.

[0113] Such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, in some embodiments, optionally, the drinking water device 100 further includes: a display panel 138, which is arranged on the box body 110, and the display panel 138 is used to display at least one of time information, weather information, water temperature, and water output.

[0114] In this embodiment, the drinking water device 100 further includes a display panel 138. The display panel 138 is arranged on the box body 110, and the display panel 138 is used to display at least one of time information, weather information, water temperature, and water output. The display panel 138 not only improves the practicality of the device but also provides a more comprehensive information display for the user, making the drinking water process more convenient and comfortable.

[0115] The display panel 138 displays time information, specifically, it can display the current time, including date, hour, minute, etc., which is convenient for the user to keep track of time at any time.

[0116] The display panel 138 displays weather information, specifically, it can display the current weather conditions, such as temperature, humidity, wind direction, whether it is raining, etc., providing a reference for the user's travel and dressing.

[0117] The display panel 138 displays the water level, specifically, it can display the temperature of the water in the current drinking water device 100, which is very useful for users who need a specific water temperature, such as making milk powder or brewing tea.

[0118] The display panel 138 displays the water output, specifically, it displays the amount of water that has already flowed out or the remaining available water output, helping the user control the amount of water received and avoiding overflow or shortage.

[0119] Specifically, the display panel 138 is usually set at a prominent position on the box body 110, such as the top, front panel or side, so that the user can easily view it.

[0120] Specifically, a display and touch module 158 is provided inside the display panel 138. Such a design not only enhances the interactivity of the device but also allows users to customize and display personalized drinking water data according to their personal preferences and needs.

[0121] Users can interact with the drinking water device 100 by touching the screen, such as selecting to view different drinking water data, adjusting settings, or performing other operations. This intuitive interaction method makes the operation more convenient and fast.

[0122] Such as Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the display panel 138 displays the functions of the drinking water device 100 and the water discharge progress of the drinking water device 100.

[0123] Specifically, Figure 4 and Figure 5 are used to illustrate the display graphics of the display panel 138. In other embodiments, the display image of the display panel 138 can also be in other forms.

[0124] Such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, in some embodiments, optionally, the drinking water device 100 further includes: a decorative panel 140 provided on the cabinet 110, and one of the display panel 138 and the decorative panel 140 is located at the top of the water receiving area 114, and the other is located at the bottom of the water receiving area 114.

[0125] In this embodiment, considering the overall aesthetics and user experience of the drinking water device 100, the present utility model adds a decorative panel 140 to the drinking water device 100, and the decorative panel 140 can play a role in transition and coordination.

[0126] The decorative panel 140 is provided on the cabinet 110, and one of the display panel 138 and the decorative panel 140 is located at the top of the water receiving area 114, and the other is located at the bottom of the water receiving area 114. When the display panel 138 is located at the top or bottom of the water receiving area 114, the decorative panel 140 can be set at the opposite position to form a visual balance and transition. In this way, when the display panel 138 is turned off, the decorative panel 140 can reduce the sense of abruptness and make the whole look more harmonious.

[0127] Specifically, the decorative panel 140 adopts a material, color, and pattern that are coordinated with the cabinet 110, which can enhance the overall aesthetics of the drinking water device 100 and make it better integrate into the home environment.

[0128] Specifically, if the display panel 138 is set at the top of the water receiving area 114 to display key information such as time, water temperature, and water output, then the decorative panel 140 can be correspondingly set at the bottom. In this way, when the display panel 138 is turned off, the decorative panel 140 at the bottom can attract part of the line of sight and reduce the sense of abruptness.

[0129] Conversely, if due to design or functional requirements, the display panel 138 is set at the bottom of the water receiving area 114, then the decorative panel 140 should be set at the top. In this way, when the display panel 138 is inactive, the decorative panel 140 at the top can become the visual focus and balance the overall design.

[0130] Specifically, the drinking water device 100 further includes a decorative member 152, which is disposed on the cabinet 110 and is located below the display panel 138. Through the decorative member 152, the overall aesthetics and comfort of the drinking water device 100 are further improved.

[0131] As Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figure 3 shown, in some embodiments, optionally, the drinking water device 100 further includes: a human body sensing module 142, which is disposed on the cabinet 110. When the human body sensing module 142 is in a triggered state, the display panel 138 lights up, and when the human body sensing module 142 is in a non-triggered state, the display panel 138 turns off.

[0132] In this embodiment, the utility model provides a human body sensing module 142 in the drinking water device 100. The human body sensing module 142 can automatically detect whether there is human activity around and control the lighting and extinguishing of the display panel 138 accordingly, so as to provide a more convenient and energy-saving usage experience.

[0133] The human body sensing module 142 is disposed on the cabinet 110. When someone approaches the drinking water device 100, the human body sensing module 142 will detect the presence of the human body and trigger a signal, causing the display panel 138 to automatically light up. In this way, the user can clearly see key information such as time, water temperature, and water output without manual operation.

[0134] If the human body sensing module 142 does not detect human activity within a period of time, that is, when it is in a non-triggered state, the human body sensing module 142 will automatically send a signal to turn off the display panel 138. This helps to save electric energy, extend the service life of the device, and reduce unnecessary visual interference.

[0135] The display panel 138 is controlled to turn on and off automatically by detecting the presence or absence of a human body. The human body sensing module 142 makes the use of the drinking water device 100 more convenient and user-friendly. Users don't need to worry about wasting electricity by forgetting to turn off the display panel 138, nor do they have to manually operate the display panel 138 every time they use it.

[0136] As Figure 1 and Figure 2 shown, in some embodiments, optionally, a recessed handle 144 is provided on the side of the cabinet 110.

[0137] In this embodiment, the present utility model is provided with a recessed handle 144 on the side of the drinking water device 100. The recessed handle 144 not only facilitates the user to move the drinking water device 100, but also can be closely attached to the cabinet 110 when not in use, avoiding additional space occupation.

[0138] Compared with an external or protruding handle, the recessed handle 144 can be completely embedded in the side of the cabinet 110 when not in use, without increasing the overall size of the drinking water device 100, thus saving space.

[0139] The design of the recessed handle 144 makes the appearance of the drinking water device 100 more concise and smooth, without redundant protruding parts, and more in line with the aesthetic requirements of modern home and office environments.

[0140] The recessed handle 144 is closely combined with the side of the cabinet 110, and the user can feel better stability when lifting, reducing accidents caused by the loosening or falling off of the handle.

[0141] Specifically, the recessed handle 144 can adopt opening methods such as pressing, sliding or flipping. The handle can be quickly popped out and locked in the use position when needed, and hidden when not needed.

[0142] As Figure 1 and Figure 2 shown, in some embodiments, optionally, the drinking water device 100 further includes: an ice outlet 148, which is provided on the cabinet 110 and extends into the water receiving area 114.

[0143] In this embodiment, the drinking water device 100 is designed with an additional ice outlet 148. Specifically, the ice outlet 148 is provided on the cabinet 110 and extends into the water receiving area 114. Through the ice outlet 148, the drinking water device 100 is no longer limited to providing hot water or cold water, but can also provide ice cubes. It provides great convenience for occasions where cold drinks are needed. Users can directly take out ice cubes from the device without additional preparation or waiting.

[0144] The design that the ice outlet 148 extends into the water receiving area 114 enables the ice cubes to directly fall into the cup placed by the user, reducing the complexity of the user's operation and improving the convenience of use. The user does not need to additionally set up an ice receiving device outside the device, nor do they need to worry about the ice cubes scattering.

[0145] Through the combined design of the built-in ice outlet 148 and the water receiving area 114, the influence of external pollution on the ice cubes can be reduced to a certain extent.

[0146] Combining the ice outlet 148 with the water receiving area 114 can make more effective use of the internal space of the device, making the design of the entire drinking water device 100 more compact and efficient.

[0147] To sum up, adding the ice outlet 148 to the drinking water device 100 and extending it into the water receiving area 114 not only improves the versatility and convenience of the device, but also pays attention to hygiene and space optimization, bringing a better user experience to the users.

[0148] Specifically, the drinking water device 100 further includes: an ice cup pusher 150, which is arranged on the box body 110, below the ice outlet 148, and the ice cup pusher 150 extends into the water receiving area 114.

[0149] The ice cup pusher 150 is a device that the user presses to push the ice cubes stored inside to the ice outlet 148 for the user to directly take. During the working process of the drinking water device 100, first, the water dispenser or ice maker stores the made ice cubes in the internal ice storage chamber. These ice cubes are usually pre-made and stored in a low-temperature environment to maintain their frozen state.

[0150] When the user needs ice cubes, they place the cup below the ice outlet 148 and trigger the ice cup pusher 150 by using the cup. The ice cubes in the ice storage chamber are pushed towards the ice outlet 148 and fall into the container 200 placed by the user.

[0151] As Figures 6 to 16 shown, the process of the water dispenser proposed by the present utility model in three different usage modes is shown.

[0152] When dispensing normal temperature water, as Figure 6 shown, first, the water dispenser is in the standby state and the display panel 138 is turned off.

[0163] As Figure 16 shown, after the container 200 is taken away and the human body sensing module 142 senses that there is no one in front of the drinking water device 100, the display panel 138 is automatically turned off.

[0164] When dispensing hot water, asFigure 6 As shown, the water dispenser is in the standby state and the display panel 138 is turned off.

[0165] As Figure 7 shown, the human body sensing module 142 senses the approach of a person, and the display panel 138 lights up, and can display the time, weather and warm reminder drinking water information.

[0166] As Figure 8 shown, the container 200 is placed in the water receiving area 114, the near field communication tag 134 is sensed, and the display panel 138 displays the water temperature, water volume and water quality data of the initially set hot water.

[0167] As Figure 13 shown, after checking and confirming the hot water information, touch the unlock button.

[0168] As Figure 14 shown, after the induction is triggered, the drinking water device 100 automatically discharges hot water, and the water volume and progress bar in the display interface of the display panel 138 will rise synchronously, and the two side lighting elements 136 will light up slowly, and can emit orange light (schematic shown by the slashes in Figure 14 ) to create a contextual atmosphere.

[0169] As Figure 15 shown, according to the initially set water volume, after the water discharge is completed, the water volume and progress bar in the display interface of the display panel 138 stop rising, and the two side lighting elements 136 go out slowly synchronously.

[0170] As Figure 16 shown, after the container 200 is taken away, the human body sensing module 142 senses that there is no one in front of the drinking water device 100, and automatically turns off the display panel 138.

[0171] Specifically, the lighting element 136 can also emit lights of different colors to indicate normal temperature water, ice water and hot water.

[0172] In an embodiment of the present utility model, the drinking water device 100 further includes a main control board 154, a display touch module 158 and a lighting module 156.
