[0018] The preferred embodiments of the present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings, so that the advantages and features of the present invention can be more easily understood by those skilled in the art, thereby providing a clearer and more definite definition of the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0019] Example 1:

[0020] like Figure 1 The water system of a smoothie machine shown includes a normal temperature water tank module, a hot water tank module connected to the normal temperature water tank module, a stirring mechanism connected to the hot water tank module, and a water outlet module connected to the normal temperature water tank module and the hot water tank module respectively.

[0021] Specifically, the ambient temperature water tank module includes an ambient temperature water tank 7, a filter 5, and an ambient temperature water pump 12. The inlet of the ambient temperature water tank is connected to the municipal tap water 2 through the filter 4. The filter 4 is connected to the ambient temperature water tank 7 through an inlet solenoid valve 5. A through-plate pipe joint 3 is provided between the filter 4 and the municipal tap water 2. The outlet of the ambient temperature water tank 7 is connected to the hot water tank module and the outlet module through the ambient temperature water pump 12. The outlet of the ambient temperature water tank 7 is connected to the ambient temperature water pump 12 through a T-type three-way valve 11. One of the T-type three-way valve 11 is connected to the drain pipe plug 6 for draining water from the ambient temperature water tank 7. A UV disinfection lamp 10 is provided in the inner cavity of the top of the ambient temperature water tank 7 for preliminary sterilization of the ambient temperature water tank 7. In addition, an anti-overflow float valve 8 and a liquid level float 9 are also provided in the ambient temperature water tank 7 for timely replenishment or cessation of water replenishment.

[0022] Specifically, the hot water tank module includes a hot water tank 20, a hot water pump 14, and a cleaning pump 21. The inlet of the hot water tank 20 is connected to the ambient temperature water pump 12 through a two-position three-way solenoid valve 13. One outlet of the hot water tank 20 is connected to the outlet module through the hot water pump 14. A one-way valve 16 is installed on the connecting pipe between the hot water pump 14 and the outlet module. The other outlet of the hot water tank 20 is connected to the stirring mechanism 23 through the cleaning pump 21. A one-way valve 22 is installed on the connecting pipe.
