Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of tea bar machine technology, specifically to a water vapor separation structure for a tea bar machine. Background Technology

[0002] The water purification tea bar machine allows people to drink fresh and healthy water, avoiding the adverse effects of stagnant water, repeatedly boiled water, and reheating. Moreover, the water temperature is constant, and it is convenient and quick to use, meeting the fast-paced lifestyle of modern people.

[0003] Existing tea bar machines generate a large amount of steam during heating. The simultaneous flow of steam and hot water from the same pipe can cause unstable water output and splashing, posing a safety hazard. Therefore, existing technologies typically incorporate a steam-water separation structure at the water outlet of the tea bar machine. For example, CN209750768U discloses a steam-water separation box and a water dispenser with such a box. This box includes a housing with an inner cavity. An inlet and an outlet communicating with the inner cavity are respectively located at opposite ends of the bottom surface of the housing. The bottom surface of the inner cavity is horizontal, and the inlet and outlet are flush. An exhaust vent communicating with the inner cavity is located on the side of the housing near the outlet, and the exhaust vent is positioned close to the top surface of the housing.

[0004] However, the existing water vapor separation structure of tea bar machines is generally set inside the water outlet panel of the tea bar machine, and the water outlet is located at the bottom of the water outlet panel. This makes it impossible for users to accurately observe the position of the water outlet, which makes it impossible for users to accurately align the water outlet during the water filling process, causing inconvenience to users. Utility Model Content

[0005] To address the technical problems existing in the background art, this utility model proposes a water vapor separation structure for a tea purifier.

[0006] The technical solution adopted by this utility model to solve its technical problem is as follows:

[0007] A water vapor separation structure for a water purification tea bar machine includes a mounting base and a water vapor separation box inserted into the mounting base;

[0008] The water vapor separation box contains a separation space, and the bottom of the separation space forms a water outlet and an exhaust port. The water vapor separation box is provided with a water inlet pipe that connects to the separation space. The separation space has an upward-extending exhaust column, and an exhaust channel that connects to the exhaust port is formed in the exhaust column.

[0009] An ambient light assembly is provided between the water vapor separator and the mounting base, and the ambient light assembly is arranged around the outer periphery of the water outlet.

[0010] Preferably, the water inlet pipe includes a first pipe disposed on the side of the water vapor separator box and a second pipe disposed on the top of the water vapor separator box. The first pipe forms a first water inlet channel for hot water to enter, and the second pipe forms a second water inlet channel for cold water to enter. With the above improvements, cold water and hot water may enter the water vapor separator box through the first pipe and the second pipe respectively, realizing the function of outputting cold water and hot water.

[0011] Preferably, the water vapor separation box includes a separation body and a separation cover on the separation body. The separation cover has a water baffle plate, which is placed in the separation space and is positioned opposite to the first pipeline. With the above improvements, when water is discharged, the water baffle plate can slow down the flow of water.

[0012] Preferably, the separation space has an upwardly extending anti-overflow protrusion, and an anti-overflow venting groove connected to the vent is formed in the anti-overflow protrusion. The venting column is higher than the anti-overflow protrusion. With the above improvements, when the water level inside the separation space reaches a certain position, the water inside can be discharged through the anti-overflow venting groove to avoid overflow. When the water level is normal, the water can also be vented through the anti-overflow venting groove to improve the water vapor separation effect.

[0013] Preferably, the anti-overflow protrusion is joined with the vent column to form a water-blocking arc surface, and the water-blocking arc surface is arranged around the outer periphery of the outlet. Through the above improvements, the anti-overflow protrusion is joined with the vent column to form a water-blocking arc surface, and the water-blocking arc surface and the water-blocking plate are arranged alternately, which further improves the water blocking and slowing effect.

[0014] Preferably, the water vapor separator has several abutting protrusions spaced apart on its outer periphery. The abutting protrusions abut against the top of the mounting base. With the above improvement, the mounting base is inserted into the water outlet panel, and the connecting protrusions and connecting columns are connected by screws, so that the water vapor separator is installed on the water outlet panel. The abutting protrusions are used to press the mounting base tightly, thereby improving the stability of the installation.

[0015] Preferably, the ambient light assembly includes a mounting plate that is snapped into the mounting base and a light plate that is embedded in the mounting plate. The mounting plate has a plug-in protrusion, and the bottom of the water vapor separation box has a plug-in groove for the plug-in protrusion to be inserted. Through the above improvements, the stability of the entire water vapor separation structure is further improved by using the plug-in protrusion and the plug-in groove to cooperate.

[0016] Preferably, a sealing groove is formed on the mounting base, and a sealing ring is provided in the sealing groove. The sealing ring abuts against the water outlet panel. Through the above improvements, the stability of the mounting base installation is further enhanced by using the sealing ring to abut against the water outlet panel.

[0017] Preferably, a sealing protrusion is formed on the separating body, and the sealing protrusion abuts against the separating cover. Through the above improvements, the sealing performance of the connection between the separating body and the separating cover is increased.

[0018] Preferably, the mounting base and mounting plate are made of transparent material, thereby improving the light amplification effect of the ambient light assembly.

[0019] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages and beneficial effects:

[0020] By setting a water outlet and an exhaust port at the bottom of the separation space, and an inlet pipe connecting the water vapor separation box to the separation space, the separation space has an upward-extending exhaust column. An exhaust channel connecting the exhaust port is formed in the exhaust column, allowing hot air to be discharged through the exhaust channel and water to flow out through the water outlet, thus achieving water vapor separation. An ambient light component is installed between the water vapor separation box and the mounting base, and the ambient light component is arranged around the outer periphery of the water outlet. The ambient light component can accurately indicate the location of the water outlet, making it easier for users to collect water and improving the user experience and safety during use. The ambient light component can also flash different colors to indicate different temperature levels, further enhancing the user experience. Attached Figure Description

Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

These terms are only used to distinguish the elements from each other for ease of understanding, and are not used to define any directional or sequential restrictions.

[0032] like Figure 1-8 As shown, a water vapor separation structure for a tea purifier includes a mounting base 1.1 and a water vapor separation box 1.2 inserted into the mounting base 1.1.

[0033] Specifically, the water vapor separation box 1.2 contains a separation space 1.3, the bottom of the separation space 1.3 contains a water outlet 1.5 and an exhaust port 1.7, the water vapor separation box 1.2 is provided with an inlet pipe 1.4 that connects to the separation space 1.3, the separation space 1.3 has an upwardly extending exhaust column 2.6, and the exhaust column 2.6 has an exhaust channel 2.7 that connects to the exhaust port 1.7.

[0034] Furthermore, an ambient light assembly 16 is provided between the water vapor separator 1.2 and the mounting base 1.1, and the ambient light assembly 1.6 is arranged around the outer periphery of the water outlet 1.5.

[0035] The tea bar machine has a water outlet panel 2 on its body 1. The mounting base 1.1 is inserted into the water outlet panel 2, and the water vapor separation box 1.2 is inserted into the mounting base 1.1 and connected to the water outlet panel 2. During the entire water dispensing process, water enters the separation space 1.3 through the water inlet pipe 1.4, water vapor can be discharged through the exhaust channel 2.7, and water can be output from the water outlet 1.5, thus realizing water vapor separation and avoiding unstable water dispensing and splashing.

[0036] In addition, the ambient light component 1.6 can accurately indicate the position of the water outlet 1.5, making it easier for users to fill the water, thereby improving the user experience and enhancing safety during use.

[0037] Preferably, the ambient light component 1.6 can also flash different colors to indicate different temperature levels, further enhancing the user experience.

[0038] like Figure 2-8 As shown, as a further explanation of the structure of the water vapor separator 1.2, the water inlet pipe 1.4 includes a first pipe 5.1 disposed on the side of the water vapor separator 1.2 and a second pipe 5.2 disposed on the top of the water vapor separator 1.2. The first pipe 5.1 forms a first water inlet channel for hot water to enter, and the second pipe 5.2 forms a second water inlet channel for cold water to enter, thereby realizing the function of hot water and cold water output of the tea bar machine.

[0039] Specifically, the water vapor separation box 1.2 includes a separation body 2.1 and a separation cover 2.2 covering the separation body 2.1. A water baffle 2.3 is formed on the separation cover 2.2. The water baffle 2.3 is placed in the separation space 1.3 and is positioned opposite to the first pipe 5.1. During the hot water injection process, water is injected into the separation space 1.3 through the first pipe 5.1. The water baffle 2.3 can slow down the flow of hot water and improve the water vapor separation effect.

[0040] The separation space 1.3 has an upwardly extending anti-overflow protrusion 2.4, and the exhaust column 2.6 is higher than the anti-overflow protrusion 2.4. An anti-overflow exhaust groove 2.5 is formed in the anti-overflow protrusion 2.4, which connects to the water outlet 1.5. When the water level inside the separation space 1.3 reaches a certain position, the water inside can be discharged through the anti-overflow exhaust groove 2.5 to avoid overflow. When the water level is normal, the water can also be vented through the anti-overflow exhaust groove 2.5 to improve the water vapor separation effect.

[0042] Furthermore, the water-blocking arc surface 2.8 and the water-blocking plate 2.3 are staggered vertically, and the water-blocking arc surface 2.8 and the water-blocking plate 2.3 form a water-guiding arc surface 4.4. The water-blocking arc surface 2.8 forms an opening for connecting the water outlet 1.5. Water enters from the water inlet pipe 1.4, first passes through the buffer of the water-blocking plate 2.3, and then moves towards the water outlet 1.5 under the guidance of the water-guiding arc surface 4.4. Finally, under the action of the water-blocking arc surface 2.8, the water is discharged from the water outlet 1.5.

[0043] Preferably, the water-blocking plate 2.3 is arranged in an arc shape to further enhance the guiding and buffering effect.

[0044] like Figure 2-8 As shown, to further explain the installation of the water vapor separator 1.2 structure, a connecting protrusion 3.1 is formed on the periphery of the water vapor separator 1.2, and a connecting post 3.2 is formed inside the water outlet panel 2.

The connecting protrusion 3.1 and the connecting post 3.2 are connected by screws so that the water vapor separator 1.2 is installed on the water outlet panel 2 to ensure the reliability of the installation of the water vapor separator 1.2.

[0045] Furthermore, the water vapor separator 1.2 has several abutting protrusions 3.4 arranged at intervals on its outer periphery. The mounting base 1.1 is inserted into the water outlet panel 2. When the connecting column 3.2 is connected to the connecting protrusion 3.1, the abutting protrusion 3.4 abuts against the top of the mounting base 1.1 to ensure the stability of the mounting base 1.1.

[0046] Furthermore, the ambient light assembly 1.6 includes a mounting plate 3.5 that is fitted into the mounting base 1.1, and a light panel 3.6 that is embedded in the mounting plate 3.5. The mounting plate 3.5 is fitted into the mounting base 1.1, and the light panel 3.6 emits light through the mounting base 1.1 and the mounting plate 3.5 to accurately indicate the position of the water outlet 1.5.

[0047] In addition, a plug-in protrusion 3.7 is formed on the mounting plate 3.5, and a plug-in groove 3.8 is formed at the bottom of the water vapor separator 1.2 for the plug-in protrusion 3.7 to be inserted. The plug-in protrusion 3.7 and the plug-in groove 3.8 are used to cooperate to further improve the reliability of the connection between the water vapor separator 1.2 and the mounting base 1.1.

[0048] Preferably, a sealing groove 4.1 is formed on the mounting base 1.1, and a sealing ring 4.2 is provided in the sealing groove 4.1. The sealing ring 4.2 abuts against the water outlet panel 2, further improving the stability of the mounting base 1.1 during installation.

[0049] Preferably, a sealing protrusion 4.3 is formed on the separating body 2.1, and the sealing protrusion 4.3 abuts against the separating cover 2.2, which increases the sealing performance of the connection between the separating body 2.1 and the separating cover 2.2.

[0050] Preferably, the mounting base 1.1 is filled with adhesive, which not only improves waterproof performance but also increases heat dissipation.

[0051] Preferably, the mounting base 1.1 and mounting plate 3.5 are made of transparent material to enhance the light-diffusing effect of the ambient light assembly 1.6. This specific embodiment is merely an explanation of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. After reading this specification, those skilled in the art can make modifications to this embodiment without contributing any inventive step, but such modifications are protected by patent law as long as they fall within the scope of the claims of the present invention.
