Abstract

Provide the structure of a hydrogen water machine. [Solution] To make it easier for users to insert and remove water canisters, under normal conditions the inflation seat 32 is inclined, at which point the air-release bubble core disengages from the actuator and the actuator cannot drive it to open the air-release device. When the user installs a water canister and rotates the inflation seat to vertical, the link 33 resets the drive lever 23, causing the air-release bubble core to move upward and abut against the actuator, at which point the actuator can drive the air-release device to open. This structure prevents the user from accidentally touching the actuator and opening the air-release bubble core while moving or installing the water canister, providing a better user experience.

Description

[Technical Field]

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of hydrogen water makers, and more particularly to the structure of hydrogen water makers. [Background technology]

[0002] Hydrogen water is a non-alcoholic beverage formed by dissolving carbon dioxide gas in water, with a refreshing texture and delicate bubbles. It can also be mixed with other drinks to create different flavors. Hydrogen water machines are machines used to produce hydrogen water and have become widely popular in recent years due to their convenience and other advantages. There are two types available on the market: handle-type hydrogen water machines and button-type hydrogen water machines.

[0003] For example, the patent with registration number CN219720416U discloses an air venting device for a hydrogen water machine, in which a gas cylinder joint seat is provided with a gas cylinder mounting chamber for mounting a gas cylinder on the bottom surface, an air vent valve is provided on the top surface of the gas cylinder joint seat and has a bubble chamber inside, the bubble chamber is connected to the gas cylinder mounting chamber through an air vent hole, the air vent valve is provided with an air vent nozzle connected to the bubble chamber, and an air vent pin is provided inside the bubble chamber. a cam is provided above the air vent valve and is rotatably connected to the gas cylinder joint seat, a groove is provided on the outer circumferential surface of the cam along the rotation direction of the cam, the upper end of the air vent pin is provided in the groove, and as the cam rotates, the air vent pin comes out of the groove and the outer circumferential surface of the cam abuts against the air vent pin, pushing the lower end of the air vent pin downward into the gas cylinder mounting chamber through the air vent hole, and a handle is attached to the side of the cam and rotates coaxially with the cam.

[0004] According to the above technology, the air venting device rotates a cam via a handle. As the cam rotates, the air vent pin disengages from the groove, and the outer circumferential surface of the cam abuts against the air vent pin. The cam pushes the lower end of the air vent pin downward through the air vent hole into the gas cylinder mounting chamber, opening the gas cylinder and venting the gas cylinder. In actual use, when a water cylinder that needs to be inflated is not mounted on the hydrogen water dispenser, the gas cylinder can still be driven to vent via the handle. However, there is a problem that the user may accidentally touch the handle while moving or mounting the water cylinder, venting the gas cylinder and wasting the gas cylinder.

[0005] Therefore, a structure of a hydrogen water machine has been proposed to solve the above technical problems. Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]

A link is provided on the top of the inflation seat, the right end of which is rotatably connected within the mounting seat, and the left end of which extends to the outside of the mounting seat. The left end of the link is movably connected to the right end of the drive lever. When the inflation seat rotates to an inclined position, the link rotates the drive lever, causing the vent bubble core to move downward and thereby disengage from the drive unit. At this time, the drive unit cannot drive the vent device to open. When the inflation seat rotates to a vertical position, the link resets the drive lever, causing the vent bubble core to move upward and abut against the drive unit. At this time, the drive unit can drive the vent device to open.

[0008] As a further improvement of the above technical solution, a chute is provided at the right end of the drive lever, and a slider is provided at the left end of the link, and the slider slides within the chute.

[Effects of the Invention]

[0017] According to this invention, to make it easier for users to insert and remove water canisters, the inflation seat is normally tilted, so that the deflation bubble core disengages from the actuator and the actuator cannot drive the deflation device to open. When the user inserts a water canister and rotates the inflation seat vertically, the link resets the drive lever, causing the deflation bubble core to move upward and contact the actuator, which then drives the deflation device to open. This structure prevents the user from accidentally touching the actuator while inserting or removing the water canister, which would open the deflation bubble core, providing a better user experience.

[0022] In describing the present invention, unless otherwise expressly limited, the terms provided, attached, connected, etc. should be understood in a broad sense, and a person skilled in the art can reasonably determine the specific meaning of the above terms in the present invention based on the specific content of the technical solution.

[0023] 1 to 13, the hydrogen water maker has a main body 1 with an air vent device 2 and an inflation device 3 installed inside. The air vent device 2 includes an air vent seat 21 and an air vent bubble core 22. The air vent seat 21 has an upward-facing mounting groove 211. The air vent bubble core 22 is movably mounted in the mounting groove 211. A drive lever 23 is rotatably connected to the air vent seat 21. The left end of the drive lever 23 abuts against the bottom of the air vent bubble core 22 and the right end of the drive lever 23 extends to the outside of the air vent seat 21. A drive unit 4 is installed on the top of the air vent seat 21. The drive unit 4 abuts against the top of the air vent bubble core 22 and drives it to open. The inflation device 3 includes an mounting seat 31 and an inflation seat 32. The air vent bubble core 22 is connected to the inflation seat 32 via a vent pipe (not shown). It is a conventional technique that the air-bleeding bubble core 22 is connected to the inflation seat 32 through a vent pipe. A link 33 is provided on the top of the inflation seat 32, and the right end of the link 33 is pivotally connected to the inside of the mounting seat 31, and the left end of the link 33 extends to the outside of the mounting seat 31, and the left end of the link 33 is movably connected to the right end of the drive lever 23. When the inflation seat 32 rotates to the tilted position, the link 33 rotates the drive lever 23, moves the air-bleeding bubble core 22 downward, and separates it from the drive device 4. At this time, the drive device 4 cannot drive the air-bleeding device 2 to open. When the inflation seat 32 rotates to the vertical position, the link 33 resets the drive lever 23, causing the air-release bubble core 22 to move upward and contact the drive device 4, at which time the drive device 4 can drive the air-release device 2 to open.

[0024] In a preferred embodiment, a chute 231 is provided at the right end of the drive lever 23 , and a slider 331 is provided at the left end of the link 33 , and the slider 331 slides within the chute 231 .

[0028] In use, the handle 45 is rotated to rotate the rotary shaft 43, which then presses down on the pushing head 44, causing the pushing head 44 to abut against the air-release bubble core 22 and opening the air-release bubble core 22.

[0029] When the handle 45 is loosened, the spring action resets the rotating shaft 43, thereby resetting the handle 45, and the push head 44 is released from the air-removing bubble core 22 under the spring action.

[0034] When the inflation seat 32 is inclined, the top of the latch 34 abuts against the top inner wall of the mounting seat 31, causing the latch 34 to move downward, thereby pushing the elastic locking block 51 and causing it to disengage from the inner wall of the inflation seat 32, allowing the user to remove the inflation sub-device 5 from the inflation seat 32. This structure makes it easy for the user to replace the inflation sub-device 5 when making a different drink.
