[0032] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. 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.

[0033] Please see Figures 1-12 This utility model provides a water dispensing device and a water dispenser technical solution.

[0034] A water outlet device, comprising:

[0035] The capsule chamber 1 has an upward-opening capsule slot 2. The upper end of the capsule slot 2 has a placement step 3. The capsule coffee 4 is installed in the capsule slot 2. The end of the capsule coffee 4 is fitted with a protruding ring 5 and placed on the placement step 3. There is a first gap 6 between the outer wall of the capsule coffee 4 and the inner wall of the capsule slot 2. The bottom of the capsule slot 2 has a first liquid outlet hole 7. The capsule chamber 1 also has an outlet cavity 8. The upper end of the capsule slot 2 is connected to the outlet cavity 8 through an upper connecting groove 9. The bottom of the outlet cavity 8 has an external perforation 10.

[0036] The water vapor separation box 11 has a water vapor separation chamber 12 inside. The bottom of the water vapor separation chamber 12 has a first water vapor separation outlet 13. The side wall of the water vapor separation chamber 12 has a hot water inlet 14. The top of the water vapor separation chamber 12 has a water vapor outlet 15. The water vapor outlet 15 is connected to the outlet chamber 8 through the first outlet hole 32.

[0037] The coffee from capsule 4 flows out through the first outlet hole 7. The expelled gas enters the outlet cavity 8 through the first gap 6 and the upper connecting groove 9, and finally exits through the external perforation 10. Of course, if the coffee from capsule 4 cannot flow out through the first outlet hole 7 in time, it will also enter the outlet cavity 8 through the first gap 6 and the upper connecting groove 9, and finally exit through the external perforation 10. Hot water enters the water vapor separation cavity 12 through the hot water inlet hole 14, and water vapor enters the outlet cavity 8 through the water vapor outlet hole 15 and the first outlet hole 32. The water vapor also exits through the external perforation 10. Similarly, if the water in the water vapor separation cavity 12 cannot be exited in time, it will also exit through the external perforation 10. The capsule chamber 1 and the water vapor separation box 11 are combined and share the outlet cavity 8 to discharge water vapor and liquid, making the structure simpler and taking up less space.

[0038] like Figures 4-12 As shown, the water vapor separation box 11 is L-shaped, with the lower end of the capsule body 1 located at the corner of the water vapor separation box 11, and the water vapor separation box 11 is fixedly connected to the capsule body 1. The diameter of the upper part of the capsule body 1 is larger than the diameter of the lower part, so that the space at the lower end of the capsule body 1 can be fully utilized, thereby reducing the space occupied.

[0039] A lug 16 is fixed on the outer wall of the water vapor separator 11. A connecting hole 17 is provided on the lug 16. A connecting threaded hole is provided on the capsule body 1. A connecting bolt that is threaded into the connecting threaded hole 17 passes through the connecting hole 17, thereby fixing the water vapor separator 11 and the capsule body 1 together.

[0040] like Figures 8-12As shown, a baffle 33 is fixed to the top of the water vapor separation chamber 12. The baffle 33 is located near the hot water inlet 14, and there is a second gap 18 between the bottom of the baffle 33 and the bottom of the water vapor separation chamber 12. Hot water enters the water vapor separation chamber 12 from the hot water inlet 14 and then flows onto the baffle 33. Water vapor is discharged from the water vapor outlet 15 through the second gap 18.

[0041] like Figures 8-12 As shown, the bottom of the water vapor separation chamber 12 is provided with a surrounding plate 19, which is located outside the first liquid outlet 7. The surrounding plate 19 is provided with several second water vapor separation outlets 20. When a small flow of liquid is discharged, the liquid will flow out from the first liquid outlet 7. When the liquid flow is large, the first liquid outlet 7 cannot discharge in time, and the liquid will be higher than the surrounding plate 19 and then flow out from the second water outlets.

[0042] like Figure 11 As shown, a cold water inlet hole 21 is also provided on the side wall of the water vapor separation chamber 12. Cold water is introduced into the cold water inlet hole 21 and finally discharged from the first liquid outlet hole 7.

[0043] like Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, the capsule body 1 includes an outer capsule 22 and an inner capsule 23, which are fixedly connected. The outlet cavity 8 is formed between the outer capsule 22 and the inner capsule 23. The capsule body 1 is set up in separate parts.

[0044] like Figures 1-3 As shown, a water dispenser is also disclosed, including the above-mentioned water dispensing device, and also including a lid body 24. An outer frame is fixed to the outside of the capsule compartment. The lid body 24 is rotatably connected to the capsule compartment body 1 through the outer frame. The lid body 24 is used to open or close the opening of the capsule slot 2. The lid body 24 is provided with a liquid inlet 25. A first insertion tube 26 is fixed on the liquid inlet 25. A second insertion tube 27 is provided at the bottom of the capsule slot 2. A side outlet hole 28 is provided on the side wall of the second insertion tube 27.

[0045] When the lid 24 closes the capsule slot 2, the first insertion tube 26 is inserted into the top of the coffee capsule and the second insertion tube 27 is inserted into the bottom of the coffee capsule. The first insertion tube 26 facilitates the delivery of hot water into the coffee capsule, and the second insertion tube 27 allows the extracted coffee liquid to flow out through the side outlet hole 28 of the second insertion tube 27.

[0046] A sealing ring 29 is fixed on the lid 24. The first insertion tube 26 is located inside the sealing ring 29. When the lid 24 closes the capsule slot 2, the sealing ring 29 abuts against the top of the coffee capsule.

[0047] The first insertion tube 26 is provided with a first insertion slope 30, and the second insertion tube 27 is provided with a second insertion slope 31. By providing the first insertion slope 30, it is easier to insert the coffee capsule into the first insertion tube 26. Similarly, the second insertion tube 27 is provided with a second insertion slope 31.

[0048] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
