Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of drinking water equipment technology, and in particular to a water boiler. Background Technology

[0002] Water dispensers are commonly used drinking water equipment in modern homes, offices, and public spaces, and are widely used in countless households. As people's living standards improve, they place higher demands on the health and safety of their drinking water. Water dispensers typically heat water to boiling (high temperature) to meet users' needs for safe drinking water.

[0003] In existing technologies, most water dispensers use temperature sensors in conjunction with digital temperature displays, or use color-changing indicator lights to indicate the water temperature status to the user. For example, some devices display the specific temperature value on a digital tube or illuminate a red indicator light to indicate "high temperature" when the water temperature reaches a set high-temperature threshold.

[0004] Users often have questions when drinking boiled water: Is the water truly at a high temperature? Is it completely boiled? These concerns not only affect the user experience but may also pose health risks. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies where users cannot intuitively determine whether drinking water has reached a high temperature, which affects user experience and may also pose health risks. Therefore, this invention proposes a water dispenser.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0007] A water dispenser includes a main body, a first heating component, and a transparent tube assembly. The first heating component has a first heating channel, and the transparent tube assembly has a third channel. The inlet end of the third channel is connected to the outlet end of the first heating channel. The main body has an external viewing portion, and the transparent tube assembly is at least partially located in the external viewing portion.

[0008] The water dispenser proposed in this utility model has the following advantages: By placing part of the transparent tube assembly on the external viewing part of the main body of the water dispenser, combined with the efficient heating of the first heating component, users can directly observe the changes in the state of the liquid inside the transparent tube assembly, such as the formation of bubbles, thus intuitively judging whether the liquid has been heated to a high temperature. This structure effectively solves the problem that users of traditional water dispensers find it difficult to intuitively distinguish the water temperature, improving the convenience and safety of use; at the same time, it reduces the health hazards caused by users misjudging the temperature, greatly optimizing the user experience.

Detailed Implementation

[0017] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.

[0018] Reference Figures 1-7 A water dispenser includes a main body 6, a first heating component 1, and a transparent tube assembly 4. The first heating component 1 has a first heating channel, and the transparent tube assembly 4 has a third channel. The inlet end of the third channel is connected to the outlet end of the first heating channel. The main body 6 has an external viewing portion 5, and the transparent tube assembly 4 is at least partially located in the external viewing portion 5.

[0019] When this water dispenser is in operation, the first heating element 1 heats the liquid flowing through its first heating channel. Once the liquid is heated to a high temperature, it flows out from the drain end of the first heating element 1 and enters the third channel of the transparent tube assembly 4. At least a portion of the transparent tube assembly 4 is located in the external viewing area 5 of the main body 6 of the water dispenser, allowing the user to directly observe the state of the liquid in the third channel through the external viewing area 5.

[0020] When a liquid is at a high temperature, it typically produces a large number of bubbles. The user can clearly observe the liquid flow and bubble formation within the transparent tube assembly 4 through the external viewing area 5. If a large number of bubbles are observed in the third flow channel, the user can intuitively determine that the liquid in that section has been heated to a high temperature. Conversely, if there are no obvious bubbles in the liquid, it indicates that the current liquid temperature is low and has not yet reached the required high temperature. In this way, the user can make a preliminary judgment on whether the flowing liquid has reached a high temperature without reading temperature values ​​or relying on a single indicator light; the operation is simple and intuitive.

[0021] This water dispenser incorporates a portion of the transparent tube assembly 4 into the external viewing area 5 of the main body 6. Combined with the efficient heating of the first heating element 1, this allows users to directly observe the changes in the liquid's state within the transparent tube assembly 4, such as the formation of bubbles, thus intuitively determining whether the liquid has been heated to a high temperature. This structure effectively solves the problem of traditional water dispensers where users find it difficult to visually determine the water temperature, improving ease of use and safety. It also reduces health risks caused by misjudging the temperature, greatly optimizing the user experience.

[0022] refer to Figure 2 The transparent tube assembly 4 includes a transparent tube 13, which is installed inside the main body 6 of the water dispenser. The transparent tube 13 is at least partially located in the external viewing area 5. The transparent tube 13 can be made of glass or high-temperature resistant transparent plastic. Users can view the liquid state in the transparent tube 13 through the external viewing area 5. It should be noted that the external viewing area 5 can be separated by a transparent plate or can be a direct viewing hole.

[0023] The water dispenser includes a mounting base 9, which is fixed inside the main body 6 of the water dispenser. The mounting base 9 has a mounting groove 15, and the transparent tube 13 is at least partially limited and assembled in the mounting groove 15.

[0024] The main body 6 of the water dispenser has a support frame 7 fixed or integrally formed inside. The support frame 7 has several mounting parts 8. The mounting base 9 has a first mounting hole 10 corresponding to the mounting part 8. The mounting base 9 is fixed to the mounting part 8 by screws passing through the first mounting hole 10.

[0025] During assembly, the mounting base 9 is fixedly installed inside the main body 6 of the water dispenser, and the mounting base 9 has a mounting groove 15. At least a portion of the transparent tube 13 is assembled in the mounting groove 15. The mounting groove 15 supports and limits the transparent tube 13, effectively preventing it from shaking and ensuring its stability during operation. The main body 6 of the water dispenser has a support frame 7, which has several mounting parts 8. The mounting base 9 has first mounting holes 10 corresponding to the positions of the mounting parts 8. The mounting base 9 is securely connected to the mounting parts 8 by screws through the first mounting holes 10, thus forming a stable support structure with the transparent tube 13, the mounting base 9, and the support frame 7.

[0026] The water dispenser includes a light-emitting component 12, which is capable of illuminating at least a portion of the third flow channel of the transparent tube assembly 4.

[0027] Illumination by the light-emitting component 12 allows users to observe the state of the liquid inside the transparent tube component 4 more clearly and conveniently, thereby improving the intuitiveness and accuracy of observation.

[0028] refer to Figure 4 , Figure 6 The water dispenser includes a mounting base 9, and the light-emitting component 12 includes a main body 24 and a lamp core 19 disposed on the main body 24. The main body 24 is fixed to the mounting base 9, and the lamp core 19 is disposed near the transparent tube 13. In one embodiment, the light-emitting component 12 of this device can be an LED light panel. In another embodiment, the light-emitting component 12 can emit blue light.

[0029] The main body 24 is fixed to the mounting base 9 to prevent the light-emitting component 12 from shaking. Experiments have shown that blue light can improve the user's observation of the liquid state inside the transparent tube 13.

[0030] The mounting base 9 has a limiting groove 20 and a second mounting hole 21 disposed within the area of ​​the limiting groove 20. The main body 24 is at least partially limited within the limiting groove 20 and fixed to the second mounting hole 21 by screws. The limiting cooperation between the limiting groove 20 and the main body 24 improves the stability of the connection between the light-emitting component 12 and the mounting base 9.

[0031] As one implementation method, refer to Figure 6 The mounting base 9 has a positioning ring 16, which is located on the side of the transparent tube 13 away from the external viewing part 5. The positioning ring 16 has an arc-shaped groove 17 and a through hole 18. The transparent tube 13 at least partially abuts against the arc-shaped groove 17, and the main body 24 abuts against the end of the positioning ring 16 away from the arc-shaped groove 17. The lamp wick 19 is located within the area of ​​the through hole 18.

[0032] The mounting base 9 is equipped with a positioning ring 16, which is located on the side of the transparent tube 13 away from the external viewing portion 5. The positioning ring 16 has an arc-shaped groove 17 and a through hole 18. At least a portion of the transparent tube 13 abuts against the arc-shaped groove 17 to achieve precise positioning and stable support. The main body 24 of the light-emitting component 12 is installed at the end of the positioning ring 16 away from the arc-shaped groove 17, while the lamp wick 19 is located within the area of ​​the through hole 18. During operation, the light emitted by the lamp wick 19 shines directly onto the bottom of the transparent tube 13 through the through hole 18, effectively illuminating the liquid state inside the transparent tube 13, making it convenient for the user to observe through the external viewing portion 5. The structural design of the positioning ring 16 enables the light emitted by the lamp wick 19 to be precisely focused on the bottom area of ​​the transparent tube 13, improving lighting efficiency and allowing the user to observe the liquid state inside the transparent tube 13 more clearly, enhancing ease of use and practicality.

[0033] The water dispenser includes a second heating component 2, which has a second heating channel. The inlet end of the second heating channel is connected to the outlet end of the third channel of the transparent tube assembly 4. The liquid discharged from the first heating component 1 is further heated by the second heating component 2.

[0034] As one implementation method, refer to Figure 5 The water dispenser includes a heat exchange component 3, which has a cold flow channel 22 and a hot flow channel 23 capable of heat exchange. One end of the hot flow channel 23 is connected to the third flow channel drain end of the transparent tube assembly 4, and the other end of the hot flow channel 23 is connected to the second heating flow channel inlet end.

[0035] The water dispenser includes a heat exchange component 3, which has a cold flow channel 22 and a hot flow channel 23 for heat exchange. One end of the hot flow channel 23 is connected to the drain end of the third flow channel of the transparent tube assembly 4, and the other end is connected to the inlet end of the second heating flow channel. The liquid is first heated to boiling by the first heating component 1, and the user can visually observe the boiling process through the transparent tube 13. The boiled water flows into the heat exchange component 3 through the hot flow channel 23, where it exchanges heat with the cold liquid in the cold flow channel 22, thereby cooling the boiled water. The cooled water then enters the second heating component 2, which accurately heats the water to the user's desired temperature for drinking.

[0036] The heat exchange component 3 enables rapid cooling of boiling water, and combined with the precise heating function of the second heating component 2, it not only ensures that the warm water users drink is always boiled water, but also effectively controls the outlet water temperature, improving the safety and comfort of drinking water. At the same time, the transparent tube 13 allows users to directly observe the boiling process, enhancing the user experience and their confidence in water quality safety.
