[0030] The embodiments of this utility model will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0031] Example 1: As Figure 1-6As shown, a direct drinking water dispensing device includes a direct drinking water machine body 100, a water intake chamber 200 disposed on one side of the direct drinking water machine body 100, and a clamping mechanism disposed at the bottom of the water intake chamber 200 for clamping and fixing water cups of various sizes and shapes. It also includes a moving mechanism disposed below the clamping mechanism for moving the water cups of various sizes and shapes. The clamping mechanism includes a housing 101, which is slidably connected to the bottom of the water intake chamber 200. A servo motor A102 is bolted to the outer wall of the housing 101. The rotating end of the servo motor A102... A bidirectional lead screw 103 is fixed by bolts. A servo motor A102 drives the bidirectional lead screw 103 to rotate. One side of the bidirectional lead screw 103 is connected to an arc-shaped clamping plate A104, and the other side is connected to an arc-shaped clamping plate B105. The rotation of the bidirectional lead screw 103 causes the arc-shaped clamping plates A104 and B105 to move closer or further apart. One end of each arc-shaped clamping plate A104 and B105 is slidably connected to a square rod 110. The square rod 110 limits the movement trajectory of the arc-shaped clamping plates A104 and B105. A drain plate 106 is bolted to the bottom of the water dispenser 101 to drain excess water. Rubber pads 120 are attached to the inner walls of both the arc-shaped clamping plates A104 and B105, providing elastic clamping for the water cup. A sealing mechanism is provided on one side of the water dispenser body 100 to seal the water intake chamber 200. A hot water tap 300 is bolted to one side of the water intake chamber 200, and a cold water tap 400 is bolted to the other side. The sealing mechanism includes a damping hinge 301. The damping hinge 301 is bolted to one side of the main body 100 of the water purifier. One end of the damping hinge 301 is bolted to a sealing door 302. The damping hinge 301 uses damping force to keep the sealing door 302 tightly against the main body 100 of the water purifier. One end of the sealing door 302 is bolted to a handle 303. The sealing door 302 is opened by pulling the handle 303. A transparent plate 304 is bolted to the middle of the sealing door 302. The interior of the main body 100 of the water purifier can be observed through the transparent plate 304. Multiple locking casters 600 are bolted to the bottom of the main body 100 of the water purifier.

[0032] In this embodiment, the servo motor A102 drives the bidirectional lead screw 103 to rotate. The rotation of the bidirectional lead screw 103 causes the arc-shaped clamping plate A104 and the arc-shaped clamping plate B105 to move closer to each other. Under the limiting action of the square rod 110, the rubber pad 120 deforms and comes into contact with water cups of various sizes and shapes. This allows the direct drinking water dispensing device to automatically fix water cups of various sizes and shapes during the water dispensing process, preventing water cups containing hot water from tipping over and avoiding scalding the user, thus improving the safety of the direct drinking water dispensing device.

[0033] Example 2: As Figure 2-6 As shown, a direct drinking water dispensing device includes a moving mechanism comprising a chute 201 cut below a water intake chamber 200. A reversible motor 202 is bolted to the outer wall of the direct drinking water machine body 100. A lead screw 203 is bolted to the rotating end of the reversible motor 202. The motor 202 drives the lead screw 203 to rotate. A drive block 204 is connected to the outer side of the lead screw 203. Clockwise rotation of the lead screw 203 drives the drive block 204 forward, and counterclockwise rotation of the lead screw 203 drives the drive block 204 backward. The clock hand rotates, causing the drive block 204 to move backward. A round rod 220 is slidably connected to the middle position of the drive block 204, and the round rod 220 limits the drive block 204. A servo motor B205 is fixed to the top of the drive block 204 by bolts. The servo motor B205 drives the box 101 to rotate. A sealing shell 210 is fixed to the outside of the servo motor B205 by bolts, and the sealing shell 210 seals the servo motor B205. Telescopic baffles 500 are fixed to both sides of the sealing shell 210 by bolts.

[0034] In this embodiment, the forward and reverse motor 202 drives the lead screw 203 to rotate clockwise, causing the drive block 204 to move forward. The forward and reverse motor 202 drives the lead screw 203 to rotate counterclockwise, causing the drive block 204 to move backward. This automatically moves the water cup between the hot water tap 300 and the cold water tap 400, replacing the user's holding and improving the automation level of the direct drinking water dispensing device. The servo motor B205 drives the box 101 to rotate, which in turn causes the water cup to rotate. The user holds the cup lid to cooperate, achieving pre-tightening of the water cup.

[0035] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or changes made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model, based on the technical solution and the inventive concept of the present utility model, should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
