[0032] Further, the first annular member 31 is internally provided with a first sealing rib 36, which is tightly connected to the water pipe 21 to form an interference fit between the water pipe 21 and the first annular member 31.

[0033] In the embodiment, the first sealing rib 36 is tightly connected to the outer surface of the water pipe 21 to form an interference fit, thereby ensuring the stable connection between the water pipe 21 and the first annular member 31 and effectively preventing water from leaking from the connection through the sealing effect of the first sealing rib 36, ensuring the normal operation of the coffee machine and the safety of the user's water use.

[0034] Further, the water inlet connector 5 is provided with a first plug-in part, the water outlet connector 4 is provided with a second plug-in part, the first annular member 31 and the second annular member 32 are provided with a groove 34, and the groove 34 is respectively plug-in connected with the first plug-in part and the second plug-in part.

[0036] Further, the first annular member 31 is externally provided with a second sealing rib 35, which is tightly connected with the first plug-in part and the second plug-in part, respectively, and when the first plug-in part of the water inlet connector 5 and the second plug-in part of the water outlet connector 4 are inserted into the pre-set groove 34, the second sealing rib 35 can enhance the physical connection between the plug-in part and the groove 34, so that the water inlet connector 5 and the water outlet connector 4 form an interference fit with the first annular member 31, thereby effectively preventing liquid from leaking.

[0037] Further, the first annular member 31 is provided with a first annular boss, the water inlet connector 5 is internally provided with a first abutting boss, the water outlet connector 4 is internally provided with a second abutting boss, the first abutting boss and the second abutting boss are respectively abutted with the outer end surface of the first annular boss, and the water pipe 21 is abutted with the inner end surface of the first annular boss.

[0038] In the embodiment, when the plug-in part of the water inlet joint 5 is connected with the groove 34, the outer end face of the first annular boss is in abutment with the first abutment boss, further ensuring the stable connection of the water inlet joint 5 with the connecting piece 3, so that no leakage occurs when the water inlet of the water inlet joint 5 delivers water flow to the water pipe 21. Similarly, when the plug-in part of the water outlet joint 4 is connected with the groove 34, the outer end face of the first annular boss is in abutment with the second abutment boss, further ensuring the stable connection of the water outlet joint 4 with the connecting piece 3, so that no leakage occurs when the water pipe 21 delivers water flow to the water outlet of the water outlet joint 4.

The end faces of the two ends of the water pipe 21 are stepped. When the water pipe 21 is connected with the first annular piece 31, the end face of the water pipe 21 is in abutment with the inner end face of the first annular boss, which plays a role of blocking heat and prevents the end face of the water pipe 21 from directly contacting the water inlet joint 5 and the water outlet joint 4, thereby ensuring the stable connection of the water outlet joint 4 with the connecting piece 3. Moreover, the stepped end faces of the two ends of the water pipe 21 make it easier to realize alignment and insertion when the water pipe 21 is inserted into the first annular piece 31.
