Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of household appliances, and more specifically, to a drinking water device. Background Technology
[0002] In modern society, with people placing increasing emphasis on their health, health-preserving kettles have gradually become a highly sought-after product in the consumer market, boasting a promising market prospect. Instant hot water dispensers, capable of automatically heating water and directly providing users with hot water, have long been essential products in homes and offices. How to combine the already widespread instant hot water dispensers with the emerging health-preserving kettle is a new direction for the production and research of many household appliance manufacturers. However, the heating bases used in existing technologies for heating containers such as health-preserving kettles and thermos flasks are not easy to store, occupy a large amount of space, and are inconvenient for consumers. Utility Model Content
[0003] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the shortcomings of existing heating bases, which are not easy to store and occupy a large space. It provides a water drinking device that combines the heating base with the water drinking device through a folding storage method, thereby reducing the space occupied and optimizing the user experience.
[0004] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows:
[0005] A drinking device is provided, comprising a body and a heating base rotatably connected to each other. When the heating base rotates to a position where its side is in contact with the side wall of the body, it switches to a retracted state; when the heating base rotates to a position perpendicular to the side wall of the body, it switches to an unfolded state.
[0006] This utility model discloses a water-drinking device with a heating base that has two states: a retracted state and an unfolded state. In the retracted state, the heating base fits snugly against the side wall of the device, reducing its footprint and facilitating storage and transport. When the heating base is rotated until it is perpendicular to the side wall, it enters the unfolded state, allowing for the heating of components such as health pots and electric kettles. The retracted heating base reduces its size, facilitating storage and transport, and prevents water from entering the heating base. The unfolded state can be quickly switched by rotating the heating base, making operation simple and convenient.
[0007] Furthermore, the heating base has rotating shafts on both sides, and the main body has rotating shaft holes, with the rotating shafts rotatably connected to the rotating shaft holes. The rotational connection between the heating base and the main body is achieved through the cooperation between the rotating shafts and the rotating shaft holes, allowing for convenient and quick switching between the folded and unfolded states.
[0008] Furthermore, the body is provided with a first groove for receiving the heating base. When the heating base is received in the first groove, the bottom surface of the heating base is flush with the side wall of the body. When the heating base is in the received state, it is in close contact with the first groove, and the bottom surface is flush with the side wall of the body, which not only ensures the stability of the received state but also improves the aesthetics.
[0009] Furthermore, the heating base is provided with a coupling part for electro-coupling heating, and the first groove is provided with a second groove for accommodating the coupling part. The coupling part can electrically heat components such as health pots and electric kettles. In the stored state, the coupling part is located in the second groove, thereby ensuring that the bottom surface of the heating base is flush with the side wall of the machine body.
[0010] Furthermore, the body is provided with an anti-detachment component to prevent the heating base from detaching from the first groove. The anti-detachment component ensures that the heating base is stably housed in the first groove, preventing it from detaching from the groove due to slight vibration or shaking.
[0011] Furthermore, the anti-detachment component is a protrusion disposed within the first groove and interference-fitted with the side wall of the heating base. When the heating base is housed in the first groove, the protrusion and the side wall of the heating base are interference-fitted, ensuring the stability of the housed state.
[0012] Furthermore, the first groove is provided with a handle for removing the heating base. The handle is located on the first groove, making it easy for consumers to remove the health pot base from the first groove and quickly switch from the stored state to the unfolded state.
[0013] Furthermore, the heating base is located on the side of the drinking device. A foldable heating base is provided on the side of the drinking device; when the heating base is rotated to the unfolded state, the heating base can simultaneously heat the health pot while the drinking device is being used to collect drinking water.
[0014] Furthermore, the heating base is located on the front of the water dispenser. This placement further reduces the area required during use, making it suitable even in situations where space is limited, such as on a countertop.
[0015] Furthermore, it also includes a water collection box assembly located below the water outlet of the drinking device, the water collection box assembly being situated on the front of the device body. The movable or detachable water collection box assembly prevents water spillage during the water collection process and facilitates timely cleaning.
[0016] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0017] 1. The foldable heating base reduces the space it occupies, optimizing the user experience;
[0018] 2. The rotating storage structure prevents residual water droplets from falling onto the heating base, thus avoiding short circuits;
[0019] 3. The drinking device with a foldable storage device combines the drinking device with a retractable heating base, making it convenient to use and applicable to a variety of situations. Attached Figure Description

[0032] Example 1
[0033] This embodiment is the first embodiment of the drinking water device, which includes a body 100 and a heating base 200 that are rotatably connected to each other. When the heating base 200 rotates to the side and fits against the side wall of the body 100, it switches to the storage state; when the heating base 200 rotates to the side wall of the body 100, it switches to the unfolded state.
[0034] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, the heating base 200 in this embodiment has two states: a retracted state and an unfolded state. In the retracted state, the heating base 200 fits snugly against the side wall of the body 100, reducing its footprint and facilitating storage or transport. When the heating base 200 is rotated until it is perpendicular to the side wall of the body 100, it enters the unfolded state, allowing for the heating of components such as the health pot and electric kettle. The heating base 200 of this invention reduces its footprint in the retracted state, facilitating storage and transport, and preventing water from entering the heating base 200. It can be quickly switched to the unfolded state by rotating the heating base 200 for heating, making operation simple and convenient.
[0035] The heating base 200 has rotating shafts 210 on both sides, and the body 100 has corresponding rotating shaft holes 113, with the rotating shafts 210 rotatably connected to the rotating shaft holes 113. Figure 1As shown, the rotating shaft 210 on the heating base 200 is assembled with the rotating shaft hole 113 on the body 100, and a certain resistance is maintained between the rotating shaft 210 and the rotating shaft hole 113 to facilitate the user's rotation of the heating base 200 without causing the connection between the rotating shaft 210 and the rotating shaft hole 113 to loosen and cause the heating base 200 to detach. The rotating shaft 210 is equipped with a limiting component to keep the maximum rotation angle of the heating base 200 at 90° and to keep the bottom surface of the heating base 200 flush with the bottom surface of the body 100, ensuring stable placement during use.
[0036] The main body 100 has a first groove 110 for storing the heating base 200. When the heating base 200 is stored in the first groove 110, the bottom surface of the heating base 200 is flush with the side wall of the main body 100. When the heating base 200 is in the stored state, it is in close contact with the first groove 110, and the bottom surface is flush with the side wall of the main body 100, which not only ensures the stability of the stored state but also improves the aesthetics.
[0037] like Figure 3 As shown, the heating base 200 is provided with a coupling part 220 for electro-coupling heating, and a second groove 114 is provided in the first groove 110 to accommodate the coupling part 220. The coupling part 220 can be used with components such as electric kettles and health pots for electro-heating, with stable heating power and fast heating speed. The second groove 114 is used to accommodate the coupling part 220 in the stored state, so that the bottom surface of the heating base 200 continues to be flush with the side wall of the body 100.
[0038] The body 100 is provided with an anti-detachment component to prevent the heating base 200 from detaching from the first groove 110. The anti-detachment component is mainly used to prevent the heating base 200 from detaching from the first groove 110 in the stored state. It can be achieved by setting magnets in the heating base 200 and the first groove 110, and the attraction between the magnetic poles of different magnets fixes the position of the heating base 200, or by setting an elastic element in the first groove 110. When the heating base 200 is stored in the first groove 110, the elastic element is compressed and holds the heating base 200 by its own elasticity.
[0039] The anti-detachment component is a protrusion 111 disposed within the first groove 110 and interference-fitted with the side wall of the heating base 200. For example... Figure 2 As shown, protrusions 111 are provided on both sides of the first groove 110. When the heating base 200 is in the storage state, the protrusions 111 are in an interference fit with the heating base 200 to achieve the anti-detachment effect.
[0040] like Figure 3 As shown, the first groove 110 is provided with a handle 112 for removing the heating base 200. Figure 2As shown, the handle position 112 can be set at the top of the first groove 110, and is arc-shaped, so that the heating base 200 can be flipped out of the first groove 110 during use.
[0041] The working principle of the instant hot water dispenser in this embodiment is as follows: When the heating base 200 is not needed, the user stores the heating base 200 in the first groove 110 and the second groove 114 on the side wall of the body 100. The protrusion 111 in the first groove 110 prevents the heating base 200 from falling out. When the heating base needs to be used, the user grabs the heating base 200 through the handle 112, and can rotate it through the rotating shaft 210 and the rotating shaft hole 113 until it is unfolded.
[0042] Example 2
[0043] This embodiment is the second embodiment of the water drinking device. This embodiment is similar to the first embodiment, except that the heating base 200 is located on the side of the body 100. The water drinking device in this embodiment is a water dispenser, electric kettle, etc., and can be used with components such as a health pot or electric kettle through the retractable heating base 200. Figure 4 , Figure 5 As shown, the water drinking device can directly provide drinking water to users. After the drinking water is collected by an electric kettle, health pot, etc., the heating base 200 is rotated to the unfolded state and placed on the heating base 200 for heating. This realizes the combination of the water drinking device and the retractable heating base 200, which is convenient to use and applicable to many occasions.
[0044] like Figure 6 As shown, in this embodiment, the side of the water outlet of the drinking device that faces the user during use is the front, while the side that does not face the user during use is the side. A foldable heating base 200 is provided on the side of the drinking device. When the heating base 200 is rotated to the unfolded state, the heating base 200 can be used to heat the health pot at the same time when the drinking device is used to collect drinking water.
[0045] The working principle of the water drinking device in this embodiment is as follows: When there is no need to use the heating base 200 to heat the health pot, the heating base 200 is stored in the side wall of the water drinking device; when it is necessary to use the heating base 200 to heat the health pot, the side heating base 200 can be rotated to the unfolded state, and the health pot can be placed on the heating base 200 for heating, without affecting the normal use of the water drinking device from the front.
[0046] Example 3
[0047] This embodiment is the third embodiment of the water drinking device. This embodiment is similar to Embodiment Two, except that the heating base 200 is located on the front of the body 100. The water drinking device in this embodiment also includes a water receiving box assembly 500 located below the water outlet of the water drinking device, and the water receiving box assembly 500 is located on the front of the body 100. Figure 7 As shown, the heating base 200 and the water collection box assembly 500 are both located on the front of the water dispenser, further reducing the area required during use, making it suitable even in situations where space is limited, such as on a countertop. The movable or detachable water collection box assembly 500 prevents water spillage during dispensing and facilitates timely cleaning.
[0048] like Figure 9 As shown, the main body 100 of the water drinking device in this embodiment includes a front cover 120, a rear cover 130, a bottom cover 140, and a water tank 150. The front cover 120 is connected to the rear cover 130, the water tank 150 is fixed on the rear cover 130, and the rear cover 130 is connected to the bottom cover 140. A heating tube 160 is provided between the front cover 120 and the rear cover 130, and a water pump 170 is provided between the rear cover 130 and the bottom cover 140. One end of the heating tube 160 is connected to the water outlet assembly 400, and the other end is connected to the water pump 170. The water pump 170 is connected to the water tank 150. After the consumer removes the water tank cover 151 located on top of the water tank 150, tap water can be added to the water tank 150. The water pump 170 guides the water in the water tank 150 into the heating tube 160 for heating, and finally outputs hot water through the water outlet assembly 400. The structure is simple, easy to assemble, and convenient to use.
[0049] The main body 100 has a control panel on its surface, and a main board 180 is located on the back cover 130. The main board 180 is connected to the control panel and the heating base 200. Through the control panel on the surface of the main body 100, the heating power and unfolding status of the water dispenser and the health pot can be adjusted, realizing intelligent control.
[0050] The water dispenser includes a water outlet assembly 400. When the heating base 200 is in the unfolded state, the projections of the water outlet assembly 400 and the heating base 200 on the horizontal projection plane overlap. For example... Figure 8 As shown, the heating base 200 and the water outlet assembly 400 are both located on the front of the drinking device. The heating base 200 and the water outlet assembly 400 are aligned vertically. When the heating base 200 is in the unfolded state, their projections on the horizontal plane overlap. Figure 5 , Figure 6 As shown, the water dispenser occupies less space on the table, making it suitable for placement on a tabletop.
[0051] The health pot cup assembly 300 in this embodiment includes a health pot cup lid 310, which has a through hole. The water outlet of the spout assembly 400 is aligned vertically with the through hole. When the heating base 200 is in the unfolded state, the health pot cup assembly 300 is installed on the heating base 200, and hot water can be directly added to the health pot through the through hole on the health pot cup lid 310 via a drinking device.
[0052] The working principle of the water drinking device in this embodiment is as follows: The user first places the water receiving box assembly 500 on the front of the water drinking device, then fills the health pot cup assembly 300 with water. After filling the water, the user removes the water receiving box assembly 500, rotates the heating base 200 to the unfolded state, and electrically couples the health pot cup assembly 300 with the heating base 200. Finally, the user adjusts the working state of the water drinking device and the health pot through the control panel. The water pump 170 pumps the water in the water tank 150 into the heating tube 160, and finally the water flows out through the water outlet assembly 400.
[0053] In the specific implementation of the above embodiments, the technical features can be combined in any non-contradictory way. For the sake of brevity, not all possible combinations of the above technical features are described. However, as long as the combination of these technical features is not contradictory, it should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.
[0054] Obviously, the above embodiments of this utility model are merely examples for clearly illustrating this utility model, and are not intended to limit the implementation of this utility model. Those skilled in the art can make other variations or modifications based on the above description. It is neither necessary nor possible to exhaustively describe all embodiments here.
