An isolation slot 7 adapted for mounting a submersible ultraviolet disinfection lamp 8 is provided on the barrel 1. A mounting slot 9 is provided on the top of the water treatment chamber 3. A filter cotton 10 is inserted into the mounting slot 9. The bottom end of the mounting slot 9 is connected to the water inlet of the water pump 11. The water outlet of the water pump 11 is connected to the interior of the water treatment chamber 3. A controller 13 and a drain valve 14 are installed on the barrel 1. The refrigeration assembly 4 can quickly and efficiently perform refrigeration, and cooperates with the use of the heat-conducting fins 5 and the heat exchange tubes 6 to quickly reduce the water temperature in the barrel 1 and maintain it at a suitable ice bath temperature.The water in the barrel 1 can be effectively filtered and impurities removed by the filter cotton 10 when it flows under the transportation of the water pump 11. The use of the submersible ultraviolet disinfection lamp 8 can effectively sterilize the water. The refrigeration component 4 includes a condenser 41. The air outlet of the condenser 41 is connected to the air inlet of the heat exchanger 43 through a copper pipe, and an expansion valve 44 is installed on the copper pipe between the condenser 41 and the heat exchanger 43. A water pump 46 is installed between the heat exchange tube 6 and the heat exchanger 43. The air inlet of the condenser 41 is connected to the air outlet of the compressor 42 through a copper pipe. The heat exchanger 4 The air outlet of 3 is connected to the air inlet of the compressor 42. A cooling fan 45 is installed in front of the condenser 41. The refrigeration component 4 can quickly and stably perform refrigeration when working. The use of the water pump 46 makes the refrigerant in the heat exchange tube 6 cool down stably and quickly during the circulation process, and effectively reduces the water temperature after heat exchange with the water in the barrel 1. The heat exchange tube 6 is a serpentine copper tube structure. The isolation groove 7 is welded on the heat exchange tube 6. The heat exchange tube 6 arranged in a serpentine coil further increases the heat exchange area with the water body through the arrangement of the isolation groove 7, thereby quickly and efficiently performing heat exchange. To lower the water temperature, the controller 13 includes a digital display switch, a relay and a single-chip microcomputer. A temperature sensor 12 is installed in the water treatment chamber 3. The refrigeration component 4 and the temperature sensor 12 are electrically connected to the controller 13. The controller 13 can receive the water temperature signal fed back by the temperature sensor 12, and then control the operating state of the refrigeration component 4 to keep the water temperature at a suitable temperature. The drain valve 14 is installed at the bottom of the barrel 1. The operator can easily release the water in the barrel 1 after opening the drain valve 14. The installation groove 9 is set through the water treatment chamber 3 and the installation groove 9 is The upper and lower ends of the barrel body 1 are connected to the water pump 11. The top of the filter cotton 10 is no higher than the top of the water treatment chamber 3.

[0036] The working principle of this technical solution is as follows: after pouring an appropriate amount of water into the barrel 1, the refrigeration component 4 is started through the controller 13. After the refrigeration component 4 is powered on, the compressor 42 compresses the medium in the copper tube into a high-temperature and high-pressure gas, and then sends it to the condenser 41. The 25 works to dissipate heat from the condenser 41, so that the medium in the tube becomes a medium-temperature and high-pressure liquid. The medium then passes through the expansion valve 44 to throttle and reduce the pressure and becomes a low-temperature and low-pressure gas-liquid mixture. When it enters the heat exchanger 43, it absorbs the heat of the coolant in the heat exchange tube 6 and vaporizes, becoming a low-temperature gas. Then it returns to the condenser 41 to continue compression, and the cycle continues. Refrigeration is performed; the coolant in the heat exchange tube 6 exchanges heat with the water in the barrel body 1 through the heat-conducting fins 5 under the circulation of the water pump 46, thereby quickly reducing the temperature of the water to a suitable ice bath temperature; after the water pump 11 is powered on, the water in the barrel body 1 is sucked into the installation groove 9 and filtered through the pores of the filter cotton 10 to effectively collect and remove floating objects in the water body; when disinfection is required, the submersible ultraviolet disinfection lamp 8 can be placed in the isolation groove 7 to sterilize and disinfect the interior of the water treatment chamber 3, or the submersible ultraviolet disinfection lamp 8 can be directly placed in the barrel body 1 to sterilize and disinfect the interior of the barrel body 1.
