The control member 3 is further provided with a first through hole 34, and the first through hole 34 allows a water outlet 64 of the water outlet valve 6 to extend out of the control member 3, so that water can be conveniently collected.

The above provides an embodiment of the manipulation member 3, but the structure of the manipulation member 3 is not limited to the above embodiment.

In another embodiment, further, referring to fig. 4, 5 and 11, the outlet valve 6 is configured with an inlet 63, an outlet 64, a valve housing 61 and a valve core 62, the valve core 62 is connected with the valve housing 61 in a sealing manner, and the valve core 62 can move relative to the valve housing 61 to open or close the outlet valve 6. The valve core 62 is provided with a supporting plate 621, and the boss 32 of the operating member 3 is contacted with the supporting plate 621 to drive the outlet valve 6 to open, so that the structure is simple.

Specifically, when the locking member 2 is located at the unlocking position, the locking surface 31 on the control member 3 is separated from the contact with the locking member 2, the control member 3 is pressed at this time, the control member 3 rotates along the set axis, and meanwhile, the boss 32 on the control member 3 synchronously rotates. Because the boss 32 is in line-surface contact with the supporting plate 621 (the line on the boss 32 is in surface contact with the supporting plate 621), the line-surface contact is converted into a linear motion of the supporting plate 621 along the axial direction of the valve core 62, so as to open the water outlet valve 6, and water flows out of the water outlet 64. When the external force on the control member 3 is removed, the valve core 62 is reset under the action of the pressure spring in the water outlet valve 6, and the water outlet valve 6 is closed.

When the water outlet valve 6 needs to be locked in a closed state, the operating part 25 of the locking piece 2 is buckled, the locking piece 2 moves towards the control piece 3 (moves from right to left in fig. 6), the stop plate of the locking piece 2 moves the position of the stop part (namely, the locking position), the locking piece 2 stops the stop surface 31 on the control piece 3, as shown in fig. 7, external force acts on the control piece 3 at this moment, the control piece 3 cannot rotate due to the stop of the locking piece 2, namely, the water outlet valve 6 cannot be opened, water cannot flow out from the water outlet 64, and the child lock function of the water dispenser is realized. Conversely, the locking piece 2 is buckled in the opposite direction, so that unlocking can be realized, and normal water taking can be recovered.

In another embodiment of the present invention, as shown in fig. 1 to 11, a water dispenser is further provided, which includes the water outlet adjusting component in the above embodiment, and therefore, the water dispenser of this embodiment has all the beneficial effects of the water outlet adjusting component, and the details are not repeated herein.

Referring to fig. 1, 2 and 11, the support member 4 is constructed as a part of the housing of the water dispenser, simplifying the structure of the water dispenser and helping to ensure the structural integrity of the water dispenser.

In another embodiment of the present invention, referring to fig. 1 to 11, a refrigeration device is further provided, which includes the water dispenser in the above embodiment, and therefore, the refrigeration device in this embodiment has all the beneficial effects of the above embodiment of the water dispenser, and details are not repeated herein.

The refrigerator and the water dispenser are integrated, so that the functionality of the refrigerator is improved, the number of household appliances is reduced, and the space is saved.

When the water dispenser is arranged on the door body of the refrigerator, the support piece 4 is used as a part of the shell of the door body, and can be referred to as figure 1.

The refrigeration equipment of the embodiment has the advantages of simple and reliable structure and low cost, can prevent children from operating randomly, and avoids cold water from spilling onto the children or the ground, so that discomfort of the body or water accumulated on the ground caused by cold water is avoided. Meanwhile, as shown in fig. 1, the operation part 25 of the locking part 2 is located at the lower part of the front side of the water taking, is hidden and not easy to be found, can further prevent children from touching, still keeps the integrity of the appearance, has simple and clear appearance, has strong practicability, and can also improve the user experience effect.

The above embodiments are merely illustrative of the present invention and are not to be construed as limiting the invention. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the embodiments, it should be understood by those skilled in the art that various combinations, modifications or equivalents may be made to the technical solution of the present invention without departing from the spirit and scope of the technical solution of the present invention, and the technical solution of the present invention is covered by the claims of the present invention.
