[0036] Therefore, the embodiment provides a drinking water device 100. The drinking water device 100 can reduce the waste of energy.

[0037] Please refer to Figure 1 A drinking water device 100, comprising: a temperature adjusting assembly 10, an energy storage assembly 20, a water storage tank 30, a water inlet pipe 40, and a water outlet pipe 50;

[0038] The water inlet pipe 40 and the water outlet pipe 50 are connected with the water outlet pipe 50, the energy storage assembly 20 is arranged on the water inlet pipe 40 and the water outlet pipe 50, the temperature adjusting assembly 10 is arranged on the water storage tank 30, and the temperature adjusting assembly 10 is used for refrigeration or heating of the water storage tank 30.
