[0049] This application provides a water outlet device, such as... Figures 1 to 27 As shown, the water outlet device includes a water outlet assembly, a push rod box 200, and a self-locking assembly. The water outlet assembly includes a water outlet push rod 110 and a faucet 120. The water outlet push rod 110 is reciprocally movable in a first direction and passes through the push rod box 200. One end of the water outlet push rod 110 is drivenly connected to the faucet 120 to control the opening and closing of the faucet 120. The self-locking assembly includes a movable base 310, which is reciprocally movable in a second direction and is disposed within the push rod box 200. The second direction is perpendicular to the first direction. During the movement of the push rod 110 in the first direction, it has an open position for controlling the faucet 120 to open and a closed position for controlling the faucet 120 to close. During the movement of the movable seat 310 in the second direction, it has a locked position and an unlocked position. When the water outlet push rod 110 moves from the closed position to the open position, the movable seat 310 can move to the locked position to lock the water outlet push rod 110 in the open position. When the movable seat 310 moves to the unlocked position, the water outlet push rod 110 can return to the closed position.

[0050] The water dispensing device provided in this application embodiment has a water dispensing push rod 110 that can reciprocate along a first direction and is inserted into a push rod box 200. The movable seat 310 of the self-locking component can reciprocate along a second direction and is disposed within the push rod box 200. During the movement, the water dispensing push rod 110 has an open position for controlling the faucet 120 to open and a closed position for controlling the faucet 120 to close. During the movement, the movable seat 310 has a locked position and an unlocked position. When the water dispensing push rod 110 moves from the closed position to the open position, the movable seat 310 can move to the locked position to lock the water dispensing push rod 110 in the open position. At this time, the faucet 120 is in the open state and water is continuously dispensed, realizing the continuous water dispensing function of the water dispenser. Users do not need to press and hold the water dispensing switch of the water dispenser for a long time, thereby improving the convenience of water dispensing from the water dispenser and making the user experience better.

[0051] In some embodiments of this application, the water outlet push rod 110 is provided with a locking boss 101, and the movable seat 310 is provided with a first latch 320. When the water outlet push rod 110 moves from the closed position to the open position, the movable seat 310 can move to the locked position, so that the first latch 320 engages with the locking boss 101 to lock the water outlet push rod 110 in the open position. When the movable seat 310 moves to the unlocked position, the first latch 320 disengages from the locking boss 101, and the water outlet push rod 110 can return to the closed position. This application can realize the locking and unlocking of the water outlet push rod 110 by engaging and disengaging the locking boss 101 on the water outlet push rod 110 with the first latch 320 on the movable seat 310.

[0052] In some embodiments of this application, the water outlet assembly further includes a first reset member 130 connected to the water outlet push rod 110. When the water outlet push rod 110 is locked in the open position, and the movable seat 310 moves to the unlocked position, the first reset member 130 can drive the water outlet push rod 110 to reset to the closed position. This application improves the ease of use of the water outlet device by setting the first reset member 130 to automatically reset the water outlet push rod 110 to the closed position, thus eliminating the need for manual reset of the water outlet push rod 110.

[0053] Optionally, the first reset element 130 is a spring, with one end connected to the water outlet push rod 110 and the other end connected to the push rod box 200. In this way, the elastic restoring force of the first reset element 130 can be used to reset the water outlet push rod 110 to the closed position, improving ease of use. Specifically, when the water outlet push rod 110 moves from the closed position to the open position, the first reset element 130 undergoes elastic deformation; when the water outlet push rod 110 is locked in the open position, when the moving seat 310 moves to the unlocked position, the first latch 320 disengages from the latching boss 101, and the water outlet push rod 110 resets to the closed position under the action of the elastic restoring force of the first reset element 130.

[0054] In some embodiments of this application, the self-locking assembly further includes a self-locking push rod 330 and a second reset member 340. The self-locking push rod 330 is reciprocally mounted in the push rod box 200 along a first direction. During the movement of the self-locking push rod 330 along the first direction, it has an initial position and a first position. The self-locking push rod 330 is linked and cooperates with the movable seat 310. When the water outlet push rod 110 moves from the closed position to the open position, the locking boss 101 can push the movable seat 310 to the unlocked position. When the movable seat 310 moves, it can drive the self-locking push rod 330 from the initial position to the first position. When the water outlet push rod 110 is in the open position, the self-locking push rod 330 can be reset to the initial position under the action of the second reset member 340. At the same time, it drives the moving seat 310 to move from the unlocked position to the locked position, so that the first buckle 320 engages with the engaging boss 101 to lock the water outlet push rod 110 in the open position. When the water outlet push rod 110 is locked in the open position, when the self-locking push rod 330 moves from the initial position to the first position, the self-locking push rod 330 can drive the moving seat 310 to move from the locked position to the unlocked position, so that the first buckle 320 disengages from the engaging boss 101 and the water outlet push rod 110 can be reset to the closed position.

[0055] Optionally, a first mounting cavity 311 is formed on the movable base 310. A mating part 331 is provided at one end of the self-locking push rod 330 near the movable base 310, and the mating part 331 is inserted into the first mounting cavity 311. The first mounting cavity 311 has a first inclined surface 312 and a second inclined surface 313 arranged opposite each other along a second direction. The mating part 331 has a third inclined surface 332 and a fourth inclined surface 333 at its two ends along the second direction, respectively. The third inclined surface 332 fits against the first inclined surface 312, and the fourth inclined surface 333 fits against the second inclined surface 313. This configuration allows the movable base 310 to move from its initial position to its first position when it moves from the locked position to the unlocked position, and also allows the self-locking push rod 330 to move from its unlocked position to its locked position when it moves from its first position to its initial position.

[0056] Optionally, the push rod box 200 is provided with a second mounting cavity 315, and a self-locking push rod 330 passes through the mounting cavity. A retaining ring 334 is provided on the self-locking push rod 330 within the second mounting cavity 315. The second reset member 340 is a spring, sleeved on the self-locking push rod 330 and located within the second mounting cavity 315. Both ends of the second reset member 340 abut against the retaining ring 334 and the inner wall of the second mounting cavity 315, respectively. In this way, the elastic restoring force of the second reset member 340 can be used to reset the self-locking push rod 330 to its initial position, improving ease of use. Specifically, when the water outlet push rod 110 moves from the closed position to the open position, the locking boss 101 can push the moving seat 310 to the unlocked position, and when the moving seat 310 moves, it can drive the self-locking push rod 330 from the initial position to the first position. At this time, the second reset member 340 undergoes elastic deformation. When the water outlet push rod 110 moves to the open position, the self-locking push rod 330 will be reset to the initial position under the elastic restoring force of the second reset member 340, and at the same time drive the moving seat 310 from the unlocked position to the locked position, so that the first buckle 320 engages with the locking boss 101 to lock the water outlet push rod 110 in the open position.

[0057] Optionally, the water outlet push rod 110 includes a hot water push rod 113, which has an anti-scalding protrusion 102, and a limiting protrusion 314 on the movable seat 310. When the hot water push rod 113 is in the closed position and the movable seat 310 is in the locked position, the anti-scalding protrusion 102 abuts against the limiting protrusion 314 to lock the hot water push rod 113 in the closed position. When the movable seat 310 moves to the unlocked position, the anti-scalding protrusion disengages from the limiting protrusion 314, and the hot water push rod 113 can then move from the closed position to the open position. Through the cooperation of the anti-scalding protrusion 102 and the limiting protrusion 314, the anti-scalding function can be achieved, thereby minimizing the possibility of scalding from hot water.

[0058] In some embodiments of this application, a self-locking push rod 330 is disposed at one end of the movable base 310 along the second direction, and a locking hole 301 is provided at the other end of the movable base 310 along the second direction. A second latch 201 is provided on the push rod box 200 to engage with the locking hole 301. When the movable base 310 moves to the locked position, the second latch 201 engages with the locking hole 301. When the movable base 310 moves from the locked position to the unlocked position, the second latch 201 disengages from the locking hole 301. Through the engagement of the second latch 201 with the locking hole 301, the movable base 310 can be self-locked in the locked position, improving reliability.

[0059] Optional, such as Figure 6As shown, the second latch 201 has an engaging ramp 2011 and an disengaging ramp 2012. The engaging ramp 2011 is used to allow the second latch 201 to smoothly engage into the latch hole 301 when the movable seat 310 moves from the unlocked position to the locked position. The disengaging ramp 2012 is used to allow the second latch 201 to smoothly disengage from the latch hole 301 when the movable seat 310 moves from the locked position to the unlocked position.

[0060] Optionally, the self-locking assembly also includes a self-locking button 350, which is located at the end of the self-locking push rod 330 away from the movable base 310. That is, the self-locking button 350 and the mating part 331 are respectively located at both ends of the self-locking push rod 330. By providing the self-locking button 350, it is convenient for the user to press the self-locking push rod 330 to move it towards a first position in a first direction.

[0061] In some embodiments of this application, the push rod box 200 is provided with a slide groove 202 extending along the second direction, and the movable seat 310 includes a sliding part 316, which is slidably inserted into the slide groove 202 along the second direction. Through the cooperation between the slide groove 202 and the sliding part 316, the movable seat 310 can move more smoothly when it reciprocates along the second direction.

[0062] Optionally, the push rod box 200 is provided with a limiting shaft 203, the axis of which is parallel to the second direction, and the moving seat 310 is provided with a limiting groove 317, in which the limiting shaft 203 is inserted. By setting the limiting shaft 203 and the limiting groove 317, the moving seat 310 can move more smoothly when it reciprocates along the second direction.

A fourth mounting cavity 318 is provided on the movable seat 310. The side of the fourth mounting cavity 318 facing the third mounting cavity 204 has a second opening 319. A second striking ball 420 is provided in the fourth mounting cavity 318. When the movable seat 310 is in the locked position, the portion of the first striking ball 410 extending from the first opening 205 abuts against the side of the fourth mounting cavity 318 with the second opening 319. When the movable seat 310 moves to the unlocked position, the portion of the first striking ball 410 extending from the first opening 205 collides with the second striking ball 420 to produce a sound. By setting the first striking ball 410 and the second striking ball 420, a sound reminder function can be achieved.

[0067] Specifically, such as Figure 19 As shown, Figure 19 The diagram shows the initial states of the first actuating ball 410 and the second actuating ball 420. In the initial state, the first actuating ball 410 is lifted up by the action of the side of the fourth mounting cavity 318 with the second opening 319. When the user presses the water dispensing button 140, the water dispensing push rod 110 causes the movable seat 310 to move towards the unlocked position. When the top surface 1011 of the engaging boss 101 is just lower than the engaging surface 322 of the first buckle 320, the positions of the first actuating ball 410 and the second actuating ball 420 are as follows: Figure 20 As shown, the first ball 410 and the second ball 420 are on the same vertical line with a gap between them. The first ball 410, under the influence of gravity, moves downwards and collides with the second ball 420 (as shown). Figure 21 As shown), a "ding" sound is emitted; since the top surface 1011 of the locking boss 101 is just lower than the locking surface 322 of the first buckle 320 at this time, the moving seat 310 will quickly move to the locked position under the action of the self-locking push rod 330 and the second reset member 340, and the "ding" sound can remind the user that the water dispensing push rod 110 has been locked in the open position and the water dispenser has entered the continuous water dispensing mode, so the water dispensing button 140 no longer needs to be pressed.

[0068] In some embodiments of this application, there are multiple water outlet push rods 110, faucets 120, and first buckles 320. The multiple faucets 120 are used to supply water at different temperatures. The multiple water outlet push rods 110 are arranged at intervals along the second direction. One end of the multiple water outlet push rods 110 is driven to be connected to the multiple faucets 120 to control the opening and closing of the faucets 120. The multiple first buckles 320 are matched one-to-one with the multiple water outlet push rods 110.

[0069] Optionally, the plurality of water outlet push rods 110 may include at least two of cold water push rod 111, warm water push rod 112, and hot water push rod 113, and the plurality of faucets 120 may include at least two of cold water faucet 121, warm water faucet 122, and hot water faucet 123; one end of the cold water push rod 111 is driven connected to the cold water faucet 121 to control the opening and closing of the cold water faucet 121, one end of the warm water push rod 112 is driven connected to the warm water faucet 122 to control the opening and closing of the warm water faucet 122, and one end of the hot water push rod 113 is driven connected to the hot water faucet 123 to control the opening and closing of the hot water faucet 123.

[0070] For example, such as Figure 1 , Figure 4 , Figure 8 , Figure 10 , Figure 12 and Figure 13 As shown, multiple water outlet push rods 110 include a cold water push rod 111, a warm water push rod 112, and a hot water push rod 113; multiple faucets 120 include a cold water faucet 121, a warm water faucet 122, and a hot water faucet 123; and water outlet buttons 140 include a cold water button 141, a warm water button 142, and a hot water button 143. The cold water button 141 is located at one end of the cold water push rod 111, and the other end of the cold water push rod 111 is driven to connect with the cold water faucet 121 to control the opening and closing of the cold water faucet 121. The warm water button 142 is located at one end of the warm water push rod 112, and the other end of the warm water push rod 112 is driven to connect with the warm water faucet 122 to control the opening and closing of the warm water faucet 122. The hot water button 143 is located at one end of the hot water push rod 113, and the other end of the hot water push rod 113 is driven to connect with the hot water faucet 123 to control the opening and closing of the hot water faucet 123.

[0071] The following will refer to the accompanying drawings. Figures 1 to 27 The working principle of the water outlet device shown is explained, wherein the first reset component 130 is a tension spring and the second reset component 340 is a compression spring.

[0072] (1) Continuous and stopped flow of cold / warm water:

[0073] The continuous and stopped water flow operations for both cold and warm water are the same; therefore, the continuous and stopped water flow operations for cold water will be used as an example for explanation. Figure 15 As shown ( Figure 15(The first direction is up and down, and the second direction is left and right). When the user presses the cold water button 141, the cold water button 141 will drive the cold water push rod 111 to move downward, which in turn will drive the pressure block of the cold water faucet 121 to press downward. At this time, the valve of the cold water faucet 121 will open, thus realizing the dispensing of cold water from the cold water faucet 121. During the downward movement of the cold water push rod 111, the first reset member 130 (tension spring) will be stretched by force, and the locking protrusion on the cold water push rod 111 will abut against the corresponding first latch 320 to cause the moving seat 310 to move to the right. During the rightward movement of the moving seat 310, the self-locking push rod 330 will move downward. When the second reset member 340 (compression spring) moves, it will also be compressed. When the top surface 1011 of the locking boss 101 is just lower than the locking surface 322 of the first buckle 320, the moving seat 310 is no longer subjected to the force exerted on it by the cold water push rod 111 when it moves down. Therefore, the self-locking push rod 330 will not be subjected to the force exerted on it by the moving seat 310. Since the second reset member 340 (compression spring) is in a compressed state at this time, the second reset member 340 (compression spring) will then return to its initial position, thereby driving the self-locking push rod 330 to move upward. The upward movement of the self-locking push rod 330 will push the moving seat 310 to move to the left. When the movable seat 310 moves to the left to the locked position, the top surface 1011 of the locking boss 101 on the cold water push rod 111 abuts against the locking surface 322 of the first buckle 320 (that is, the locking boss 101 on the cold water push rod 111 is engaged with the corresponding first buckle 320). Even under the action of the first reset member 130 (tension spring), the cold water push rod 111 cannot be reset to the closed position, thereby locking the cold water push rod 111 in the open position, thus realizing the continuous output of cold water.

[0074] like Figure 22 As shown ( Figure 22 The first direction is up and down, and the second direction is left and right. If the user wants to stop water dispensing, they only need to press the self-locking button 350. The self-locking button 350 will drive the self-locking push rod 330 downward, which will then push the moving base 310 to the right again to the unlocked position. At this time, the locking boss 101 on the cold water push rod 111 will disengage from the corresponding first buckle 320, that is, the cold water push rod 111 will break free from its restraint. Thus, under the action of the first reset member 130 (tension spring), the cold water push rod 111 will drive the cold water button 141 upward. When the cold water push rod 111 returns to the closed position, the cold water faucet 121 stops dispensing water. When the user stops pressing the self-locking button 350, under the action of the second reset member 340 (compression spring), the self-locking push rod 330 will drive the self-locking button 350 upward. When the self-locking push rod 330 returns to the initial position, the water dispensing device will return to the standby state, waiting for the user's next operation.

[0075] (2) Child lock function:

[0076] Child lock: The hot water push rod 113 is locked by default. In the locked state, the anti-scalding protrusion 102 on the hot water push rod 113 cannot be pressed down under the action of the limiting protrusion 314, which can prevent children / adults from accidentally touching the hot water button 143 and causing the hot water faucet 123 to suddenly come out, thus preventing the phenomenon of scalding children or adults from the source.

[0077] Unlock: such as Figures 8-11 As shown ( Figures 18-11 (The first direction is up and down, and the second direction is left and right). If the user needs to get hot water, the user needs to press the self-locking button first, so that the self-locking push rod 330 moves downward. When the self-locking push rod 330 moves downward, it will cause the moving seat 310 to move to the left. When the moving seat 310 moves to the unlocked position, the anti-scalding boss 102 disengages from the limiting boss 314, thereby unlocking the hot water push rod 113.

[0078] (3) Continuous and stopped hot water supply:

[0079] like Figure 23 As shown ( Figure 23 (The first direction is up and down, the second direction is left and right). When the user needs to continuously obtain hot water, the user must first press the self-locking button, causing the self-locking push rod 330 to move downwards. When the self-locking push rod 330 moves downwards, it drives the self-locking structure to move to the right. When the moving seat 310 moves to the unlocked position, the anti-scalding boss 102 disengages from the limiting boss 314, thereby unlocking the hot water push rod 113. With the hot water push rod 113 in the unlocked state, pressing the hot water button 143 will cause the hot water push rod 113 to move downwards, which in turn will cause the pressure block of the hot water faucet 123 to press downwards. At this time, the valve of the hot water faucet 123 will open, thereby enabling the hot water faucet to operate. Water flows out from the head 123; then the self-locking button 350 is released, and the self-locking push rod 330 will move upward under the elastic restoring force of the second reset member 340 (compression spring). When the self-locking push rod 330 moves upward, it will drive the moving seat 310 to move to the left. When the moving seat 310 moves to the locked position, even if the user no longer presses the hot water button 143, the hot water push rod 113 cannot be reset to the closed position because the top surface 1011 of the locking boss 101 on the hot water push rod 113 abuts against the locking surface 322 of the corresponding first buckle 320 (that is, the locking boss 101 on the hot water push rod 113 is engaged with the corresponding first buckle 320). Thus, hot water continues to flow out.

[0080] If the user wants to stop hot water dispensing, they simply need to press the self-locking button 350. The self-locking button 350 will cause the self-locking push rod 330 to move downwards, which in turn pushes the movable seat 310 to the right again to the unlocked position. At this time, the locking boss 101 on the hot water push rod 113 will disengage from the corresponding first buckle 320, meaning the hot water push rod 113 will break free from its restraint. Thus, under the action of the first reset member 130 (tension spring), the hot water push rod 113 will cause the hot water button 143 to move upwards. When the hot water push rod 113 returns to the closed position, the hot water faucet 123 will stop dispensing water. When the user stops pressing the self-locking button 350, under the action of the second reset member 340 (compression spring), the self-locking push rod 330 will cause the self-locking button 350 to move upwards. When the self-locking push rod 330 returns to the initial position, the water dispensing device will return to the standby state, waiting for the user's next operation.

[0081] (4) Simultaneous continuous water output:

[0082] like Figures 24-26 As shown ( Figures 24-26 (The first direction is up and down, and the second direction is left and right). Since the distance between the locking protrusions on two adjacent water outlet push rods 110 is equal to the distance between the two corresponding first latches 320 on the movable base 310, users can press two or even three water outlet buttons 140 to simultaneously and continuously dispense water at two or even three temperatures. This enriches and diversifies the user's water usage experience, meets the user's needs for various water temperatures, and makes the product more user-friendly.

[0083] (5) Quick water collection:

[0084] like Figure 27 As shown ( Figure 27 The first direction is up and down, and the second direction is left and right. If the user only wants to take a small amount of cold or warm water briefly and quickly, in order to avoid complicated operation, the user can press the water dispensing button 140 and the self-locking button 350 at the same time (for example, press the cold water button 141 and the self-locking button 350 at the same time, or press the warm water button 142 and the self-locking button 350 at the same time) to quickly take out the cold or warm water required by the user. The user can release the buttons at any time (for example, release the water dispensing button 140 and the self-locking button 350 at the same time, or release the water dispensing button 140 first and then release the self-locking button 350) to quickly stop the water dispensing.

[0085] If a user only wants to quickly obtain a small amount of hot water, they can press the self-locking button 350 first, and then press the hot water button 143 (while keeping the self-locking button 350 pressed). This will quickly obtain the hot water the user needs. When the user wants to stop obtaining hot water, they need to release the hot water button 143 first and then release the self-locking button 350, thus achieving the goal of quickly obtaining a small amount of hot water.
