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.
[0024] Please refer to Figures 1-2 , Figure 1 A schematic diagram of the structure of an embodiment of the multi-station water receiving box drainage system provided by this utility model; Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of the drainage device of one embodiment of the multi-station water receiving box drainage system provided by this utility model.
[0025] In one specific embodiment, the multi-station water receiving box drainage system includes multiple water receiving boxes 1, sealing rings, and drainage devices 4. The water receiving boxes 1 are located below the water outlet 8 of the water dispenser body and are used to receive water output from the water outlet 8. The sealing ring is located at the output end of the water receiving box 1 and inserts the output end into the drainage device 4, so that the water receiving box 1 is connected to the drainage device 4 and the water from the water receiving box 1 is output to the drainage device 4.
[0026] By connecting the water receiving box 1 and the drainage device 4 through the lip seal ring 3, the water receiving box 1 is connected to the drainage device 4 and the water from the water receiving box 1 is output to the drainage device 4, which reduces the risk of water leakage and increases installation efficiency.
[0027] This application does not limit the type, structure, shape, and size of the sealing ring. The sealing ring can be a lip-shaped sealing ring 3, a funnel-shaped sealing ring, or a sealing ring of other shapes. It is only necessary to ensure that the output end of the water receiving box 1 can be sealed with the input end of the drainage device 4 and that the internal water can be output to the drainage device 4.
[0028] The sealing ring is a rubber sealing ring, a silicone sealing ring, or a polytetrafluoroethylene sealing ring, or a sealing ring made of other materials. The connection between the sealing ring and the output end of the water receiving box 1 and the drainage device 4 can be a snap-fit or other connection method.
[0029] This application does not limit the number, shape, material, or fixing method of the water receiving box 1. In order to facilitate fixing the water receiving box 1 so that it can stably store water and stably connect with the drainage device 4, in one embodiment, the multi-station water receiving box 1 drainage system further includes a water receiving box bracket 7 disposed on the main body of the water dispenser for fixing the water receiving box 1.
[0030] By setting up the water receiving box bracket 7, the water receiving box 1 is fixed. There are no restrictions on its connection with the main body of the water dispenser. It can be connected by snap-fit, bolt, flange, etc.
[0031] This application does not limit the shape, material, etc. of the water box bracket 7.
[0032] This application does not limit the connection method between the water receiving box bracket 7 and the water receiving box 1. The water receiving box bracket 7 and the water receiving box 1 can be connected by bolts, snaps, or other methods.
[0033] The drainage device 4 in this application is fixed to the main body of the water dispenser to receive and output water from the water receiving box 1. The method of fixing it to the main body of the water dispenser is not limited. In one embodiment, the drainage system of the multi-station water receiving box 1 also includes a drainage fixing bracket 6 set on the main body of the water dispenser, which is used to fix the drainage device 4 by means of a saddle clip 5 or by means of bolts.
[0034] By fixing the drainage device 4 to the main body of the water dispenser using the drainage fixing bracket 6, or by using a saddle clip 5, bolts, or other fasteners, its practical stability can be achieved.
[0035] This application does not limit the structure of the drain fixing bracket 6. The drain fixing bracket 6 can stably fix it to the main body of the water dispenser, reducing damage to other fragile parts.
[0036] The structure of the drainage device 4 is not limited in this application. Since there are generally multiple water collection boxes 1, in order to improve the convenience of connection, in one embodiment, the top of the drainage device 4 is provided with multiple water inlets, and the multiple water inlets are connected to the multiple water collection boxes 1.
[0037] By setting multiple water inlets on the top of the drainage device 4 and connecting the multiple water inlets to the multiple water receiving boxes 1, the installation efficiency with the water receiving boxes 1 can be improved.
[0038] This application does not limit the number or location of the inlets of the drainage device 4.
[0039] Since the water dispenser generates and outputs wastewater and requires venting from the hot tank during use, in one embodiment, the drainage system of the multi-station water receiving box 1 further includes a water outlet pipe installed at the outlet of the drainage device 4, a filter wastewater discharge port 9 installed on the water outlet pipe, and a vent 11 installed on the water outlet pipe. The filter wastewater discharge port 9 is used to output the internal filter wastewater of the water dispenser body to the external discharge port through the water outlet pipe. The vent 11 is used to connect to the venting end of the pressure relief valve at the inlet and outlet of the hot tank of the water dispenser body, and output to the external discharge port through the water outlet pipe.
[0040] By setting an outlet pipe at the outlet of the drainage device 4, and setting a filter wastewater discharge port 9 and an exhaust port 11 in the outlet pipe, the output of sewage and exhaust can be realized. At the same time, all the output is discharged through the outlet pipe, which simplifies the overall pipeline, reduces the installation difficulty, and reduces the overall structural cost.
[0041] To further facilitate connection with the water outlet pipe, in one embodiment, the multi-station water receiving box 1 drainage system also includes a Y-type connector installed on the water outlet pipe, the vent 11 is installed at the output end of the Y-type connector, and both ends of the Y-type connector 10 are connected to the vent ends of the pressure relief valves at the inlet and outlet of the hot tank.
[0042] By installing a Y-type connector on the water outlet pipe, the vent 11 can be directly installed with the Y-type connector, increasing the connection between the output end of other equipment.
[0043] This application includes, but is not limited to, using a Y-type connector to connect to the water outlet pipe.
[0044] The water outlet pipe and drainage device 4 in this application can be independent of each other or they can be an integrated structure, and can be set up as needed.
[0045] This application does not limit the shape, material, or size of the output pipe of the drainage device 4. The output pipe of the drainage device 4 is an L-shaped output pipe, a U-shaped output pipe, or an output pipe of other shapes.
[0046] The filter element wastewater discharge port 9 in this application is connected to the water outlet pipe. The connection method is not limited. The filter element wastewater discharge port 9 and the water outlet pipe are connected by PE pipe clamps, bolts, or other methods.
[0047] In one embodiment, the multi-station water collection box drainage system connects multiple water collection boxes 1 to the drain pipe, allowing water from the faucet end of the machine, wastewater from inside the machine, and exhaust gas from the hot water filling system to be discharged through the drain device 4. The water collection boxes 1 and the drain device 4 are sealed by a lip seal ring 3 to prevent water blockage and overflow. The drain device 4 consists of a connector, a pipe, and a drain pipe, and is fixed inside the machine by a saddle clamp 5. The water collection boxes 1 and the drain device 4 achieve a unified water discharge path inside the machine.
[0048] For the connection between the multi-connector water box 1 and the drainage device 4, a lip seal ring 3 is used at the lower end of the water box 1 to seal the connection with the drainage device 4. Compared with the traditional method of using a single hose for drainage in one water box 1, this reduces the risk of leakage and increases installation efficiency. The drainage device 4 is fixed by using a PVC pipe and a connector, and is then fixed inside the sheet metal of the machine using a saddle clamp 5.
[0049] The water receiving box 1 is fixed to the water receiving box bracket 7 by a nut 2. A lip seal 3 is installed at the lower end of the water receiving box 1. The lip seal 3 at the lower end of the water receiving box 1 is inserted into the drain device 4 to seal and prevent water overflow. The drain device 4 is fixed to the drain fixing bracket 6 by a saddle clip 5, ensuring it is completely fixed within the entire machine. For existing water receiving boxes 1, the number of water receiving boxes 1 can be increased according to the number of faucets at the water outlet 8, with lip seal 3 added simultaneously. For the drain device 4, a connector is added to connect with the water receiving box 1 for drainage.
[0050] The drainage device 4 has multiple water inlets inside the machine. The filter element wastewater discharge port 9 is connected to the wastewater end inside the machine for drainage. The two ends of the Y-type connector 10 are connected to the pressure relief valve exhaust ends of the inlet and outlet of the hot tank.
[0051] The overall drainage system consists of three main channels:
[0052] 1. Water from the machine's outlet 8 flows into the water collection box 1, then through the lower end of the water collection box 1 to the drainage device 4, and finally to the external drain outlet.
[0053] 2. Wastewater from the internal filter element of the whole machine flows to the drainage device 4, and the drainage device 4 flows to the external sewage outlet;
[0054] 3. The exhaust port 11 of the hot tank pressure relief valve of the whole machine is connected to the drainage device 4, and the drainage device 4 is connected to the external sewage outlet.
[0055] Multiple water collection boxes 1 are connected to the drainage device 4 to ensure unified drainage of water from the entire machine's internal system. The internal connectors of the drainage device 4 connect to the internal drain outlets of the entire machine, allowing for unified discharge of wastewater. The multiple water collection boxes 1 connected to the drainage device 4 ensure unified drainage of wastewater from the entire machine's internal system.
[0056] In summary, the multi-station water receiving box drainage system provided by this utility model connects the water receiving box and the drainage device through a lip seal ring, thereby connecting the water receiving box and the drainage device and outputting the water from the water receiving box to the drainage device, reducing the risk of leakage and increasing installation efficiency.
