As shown in fig. 1 to 5, an embodiment of the present invention provides a water supply apparatus, including a water producing component 100, a diversion assembly 104, and a temperature adjusting device 136; the water making component 100 is provided with a containing body 102; the flow guide assembly 104 is arranged in the accommodating body 102 to divide the accommodating body 102 into a first accommodating area 106 and a second accommodating area 108 which are communicated with each other in a fluid mode, and the flow guide assembly 104 is provided with a spiral flow channel communicated with the first accommodating area 106 and the second accommodating area 108 along the height direction of the accommodating body 102; the temperature control device 136 is arranged close to the first receiving area 106 or the second receiving area 108, and the height of the spiral flow path close to the temperature control device 136 is greater than the height of the spiral flow path far from the temperature control device 136.

According to the water supply equipment provided by the embodiment of the invention, the flow guide assembly 104 is arranged in the accommodating body 102, and the flow guide assembly 104 is arranged in a spiral flow channel form, so that the structure of the plane-shaped flow guide assembly 104 in the related art is optimized, the interval between water bodies with different temperatures between the first accommodating area 106 and the second accommodating area 108 on the upper side and the lower side of the flow guide assembly 104 is increased, and the effect of preventing temperature cross is effectively realized. Meanwhile, by arranging the spiral flow channel, the height of the spiral flow channel close to the temperature adjusting device 136 is set to be larger than the height of the spiral flow channel far away from the temperature adjusting device 136, so that the space between water bodies with different temperatures is increased, and meanwhile, refrigerating or heating of cold water or hot water in the first accommodating area 106 or the second accommodating area 108 can be realized faster, and the water supply energy consumption of the low water supply equipment can be reduced.

With continued reference to fig. 1-5, the water supply device may be a water dispenser that may have a cold tank for preparing cold water and a hot tank for preparing hot water. It is understood that the water producing component 100 may be a cold tank or a hot tank. Taking the example where the water making unit 100 is a cold tank, that is, the water making unit 100 is used for making cold water.

A containing body 102 is arranged in the water making part 100, the containing body 102 is used for containing clean water, and since the water making part 100 is used for preparing cold water, a part of the space of the containing body 102 is used for containing normal-temperature water to be used as a water source for preparing cold water, namely, the part of the space is a first containing area 106 for containing normal-temperature water; another part of the space is used for holding cold water after preparation, that is, the part of the space is the second receiving area 108 for holding cold water. In this case, since there is a temperature difference between the normal temperature water and the cold water, in order to prevent a cross-temperature, the guide assembly 104 is provided in the receiving body 102.

By providing the flow guide assembly 104, the first accommodation area 106 and the second accommodation area 108 described above can be formed in the accommodation body 102, and it can be understood that the accommodation body 102 located above the flow guide assembly 104 is the first accommodation area 106, and the accommodation body 102 located below the flow guide assembly 104 is the second accommodation area 108.

In the embodiment of the present invention, in order to achieve the effect of preventing the temperature cross-over, a spiral flow passage communicating the first accommodation region 106 and the second accommodation region 108 is formed in the flow guide assembly 104 along the height direction of the accommodation body 102. It can be understood that the first accommodation area 106 and the second accommodation area 108 can be communicated through a spiral flow passage, and by such arrangement, the structure of the planar flow guide assembly 104 in the related art is further optimized, so that the interval between the first accommodation area 106 and the second accommodation area 108 is further increased, and thus, the anti-temperature-cross effect can be achieved. Meanwhile, as the distance between the first accommodation area 106 and the second accommodation area 108 is increased, the temperature variation amplitude of the cold water in the second accommodation area 108 is smaller, and the target refrigeration temperature can be reached more quickly in the refrigeration process, so that the energy consumption in the refrigeration process can be reduced.

According to one embodiment of the present invention, the receiving body 102 is provided with a first outlet 110 and a second outlet 112, the first receiving area 106 is in fluid communication with the first outlet 110, and the second receiving area 108 is in fluid communication with the second outlet 112.

Referring to fig. 2, two different water outlets are formed on the receiving body 102, wherein the first outlet 110 is in fluid communication with the first receiving area 106, i.e. normal temperature water can flow out of the receiving body 102 directly through the first outlet 110 and to a warm water switch or to a hot tank. The second outlet 112 is in fluid communication with the second receiving area 108, i.e. the prepared cold water can flow directly out of the receiving body 102 through the second outlet 112 and to the cold water switch.

According to an embodiment of the present invention, the temperature adjusting device 136 is disposed on the side wall of the accommodating body 102 corresponding to the second accommodating area 108.

As described above, the second receiving area 108 can receive cold water and hot water, and correspondingly, a corresponding temperature control device 136, such as an evaporator, a heating wire, etc., can be disposed on the side wall of the receiving body 102 corresponding to the second receiving area 108. Taking the evaporator as an example, the evaporator can be coiled on the outer wall or the inner wall of the accommodating body 102, and by such arrangement, after the water in the first accommodating area 106 enters the second accommodating area 108 through the flow guide assembly 104, the purpose of preparing cold water can be achieved through heat exchange with the evaporator. Taking the heating wire as an example, the heating wire may be coiled on the outer wall or the inner wall of the accommodating body 102, and by this arrangement, after the water in the first accommodating area 106 enters the second accommodating area 108 through the flow guiding assembly 104, the purpose of preparing hot water can be achieved by heating the heating wire.

In the embodiment of the present invention, the temperature control device 136 is disposed in the second accommodation area 108, so that the overall volume of the water supply apparatus can be reduced, and the water supply apparatus can be miniaturized.

According to one embodiment of the invention, flow directing assembly 104 includes draft tube 114 and a baffle assembly; wherein, the drainage tube 114 is disposed in the accommodating body 102, and two ends of the drainage tube 114 are respectively communicated with the first accommodating area 106 and the first outlet 110; baffle assemblies are disposed axially along draft tube 114 with a helical flow passage formed therebetween.

Referring to fig. 2 and 3, the flow guide assembly 104 includes a draft tube 114 and a baffle assembly disposed along an axial direction of the draft tube 114 and spirally wound. In this case, a spiral flow passage is formed between the partition plate assemblies.

The draft tube 114 may be disposed in the accommodating body 102 along a height direction of the accommodating body 102, and the draft tube 114 is disposed to provide a stable support for the partition plate assembly on one hand and communicate with the first accommodating section 106 and the first outlet 110 on the other hand. It will be appreciated that both ends of the draft tube 114 are in fluid communication with the first receiving area 106 and the first outlet 110, respectively, and that, when the clean water enters the first receiving area 106, the clean water can enter the draft tube 114 through the ends of the draft tube 114 and then directly flow out through the first outlet 110 to the warm water switch or to the hot tank.

The baffle assembly may be integrally formed on the drainage tube 114, or may be connected to the drainage tube 114 by plugging or the like. The baffle plate assembly is spirally wound on the outer wall of the drainage tube 114, so that the spiral flow channel can be formed by the spiral winding of the baffle plate assembly and the drainage tube 114. The baffle plate assembly may be made of a material having a poor thermal conductivity, which may further prevent thermal runaway between the first receiving region 106 and the second receiving region 108.

According to one embodiment of the invention, the edge of the diaphragm assembly abuts the inner wall of the containing body 102; or a gap is formed between the edge of the diaphragm assembly and the inner wall of the receiving body 102, and a sealing member is disposed in the gap.

Referring to fig. 2, in some embodiments, to improve the water barrier between first containment zone 106 and second containment zone 108, the edge of the bulkhead assembly directly abuts the inner wall of containment body 102. Alternatively, in other embodiments, the edge of the baffle assembly may be spaced from the inner wall of the containment body 102, and in this case, a seal may be provided between the edge of the baffle assembly and the containment body 102 to prevent mixing between bodies of water having different temperatures.

According to one embodiment of the present invention, the partition assembly comprises a top partition 116, a middle partition 118 and a bottom partition 120 connected in sequence, and spiral flow passages are formed between the top partition 116 and the middle partition 118 and between the middle partition 118 and the bottom partition 120; the height of the spiral flow path between the top partition 116 and the middle partition 118 is different from the height of the spiral flow path between the middle partition 118 and the bottom partition 120.

In the embodiment of the present invention, the partition plate assembly is spirally wound around the draft tube 114, and the partition plate assembly includes a top partition plate 116, a middle partition plate 118 and a bottom partition plate 120 which are sequentially connected from top to bottom. It will be appreciated that, as shown in fig. 2 and 3, the partition assembly is spirally wound at least two times, so that a spiral flow passage communicating up and down can be formed on the draft tube 114. Wherein the upper part of the spiral flow passage is formed by the top partition 116 and the middle partition 118, and the lower part of the spiral flow passage is formed by the middle partition 118 and the bottom partition 120. The height of the spiral flow path between the top partition 116 and the middle partition 118 is different from the height of the spiral flow path between the middle partition 118 and the bottom partition 120. That is, the height of the part of the spiral flow path located above is different from the height of the part of the spiral flow path located below.

For example, when the cold water region is located in the second accommodation region 108, the spiral flow passage formed by the middle partition 118 and the bottom partition 120 is disposed close to the cold water region, and the spiral flow passage formed by the top partition 116 and the middle partition 118 is disposed far from the cold water region, and at this time, the height of the spiral flow passage formed by the middle partition 118 and the bottom partition 120 is greater than the height of the spiral flow passage formed by the top partition 116 and the middle partition 118. It can be understood that the height of the partial spiral flow channel close to one side of the cold water area is relatively large, so that a relatively large water storage space can be formed on one side of the cold water area, further more cold water with more volumes can be stored, meanwhile, the cold water area and the normal-temperature water area or the cold water area and the hot water area can be more effectively isolated, and further the reduction of the refrigeration energy consumption of the water dispenser is ensured.

Of course, in other embodiments, if the first receiving area 106 is used for receiving normal temperature water and the second receiving area 108 is used for receiving hot water, the spiral flow path formed by the top partition 116 and the middle partition 118 is disposed adjacent to the normal temperature water, and the spiral flow path formed by the middle partition 118 and the bottom partition 120 is disposed adjacent to the hot water. In addition, it should be noted that in other embodiments, a plurality of sets of baffle assemblies may be provided, and the plurality of sets of baffle assemblies may be spirally wound and then wound three, four, etc. turns around the draft tube 114.

According to one embodiment of the present invention, the ratio of the height of the spiral flow path between the top partition 116 and the middle partition 118 to the height of the spiral flow path between the middle partition 118 and the bottom partition 120 ranges from 1:5 to 5: 7.

As described above, the height of the spiral flow path formed by the middle partition 118 and the bottom partition 120 is higher than the height of the spiral flow path formed by the top partition 116 and the middle partition 118, for example, if the height of the spiral flow path formed by the top partition 116 and the middle partition 118 is 10 mm, the height of the spiral flow path formed by the middle partition 118 and the bottom partition 120 may be 14 mm to 50 mm. Through setting up like this, can form relatively great water storage space on one side of cold water district, and then can store more volumetric cold water, also can realize cold water district and normal atmospheric temperature water district or cold water district and the isolation in hot water district more effectively simultaneously, and then guarantee the reduction of the refrigeration energy consumption of water dispenser.

In the embodiment of the present invention, the ratio of the height of the spiral flow path formed by the top partition 116 and the middle partition 118 to the height of the spiral flow path formed by the middle partition 118 and the bottom partition 120 is 3:5, for example, the height of the spiral flow path formed by the top partition 116 and the middle partition 118 is 9 mm, and the height of the spiral flow path formed by the middle partition 118 and the bottom partition 120 may be 15 mm.

According to an embodiment of the present invention, the barrier plate assembly is formed with reinforcing ribs 126 in a radial direction of the barrier plate assembly.

Referring to fig. 5, the baffle plate assembly is prevented from being deformed during transportation and installation by providing the reinforcing ribs 126 on the baffle plate assembly. The ribs 126 may be provided on the upper surface of the baffle assembly and may also be provided on the lower surface of the baffle assembly. Meanwhile, the extending direction of the reinforcing ribs 126 is not particularly limited, and for example, the reinforcing ribs 126 may extend in the radial direction of the separator assembly or may be arranged to cross along the surface of the separator assembly. In the embodiment of the present invention, the reinforcing ribs 126 are disposed on the lower surface of the separator assembly, because the upper surface of the separator assembly is an overflow surface, and resistance of the reinforcing ribs 126 to the flow of water can be prevented by disposing the reinforcing ribs 126 on the lower surface of the separator assembly.

According to one embodiment of the present invention, a connecting column 122 is disposed in the spiral flow channel, and an overflowing hole 124 is opened on the connecting column 122 along the overflowing direction.

Referring to fig. 3 and 4, in order to improve the structural strength of the spiral flow channel, a connection column 122 may be provided in the spiral flow channel. The connecting post 122 may be integrally formed with the baffle assembly or may be removably connected to the baffle assembly.

By arranging the connecting column 122 in the spiral flow channel, the spiral flow channel can be prevented from being deformed. That is, in the transportation of water conservancy diversion subassembly 104, the in-process of installation, through the support of spliced pole 122, can guarantee even if the spiral flow channel receives the extrusion also can not take place deformation, and then guaranteed this water conservancy diversion subassembly 104's life.

Referring to fig. 4, in order to avoid resistance of the connecting column 122 to the water flow, an overflowing hole 124 is further formed in the connecting column 122 along the overflowing direction, so that when the water flow passes through the connecting column 122, the water flow can flow out through the overflowing hole 124, and the flow resistance of the connecting column 122 to the water flow is reduced by the arrangement of the overflowing hole 124. The number of the overflowing holes 124 may be one or more, and when there are a plurality of overflowing holes 124, a plurality of overflowing holes 124 may be spaced along the height direction of the connecting column 122. It should be noted that the flow passing direction mentioned herein refers to the arc direction on the partition plate assembly.

Referring to fig. 4, in the embodiment of the present invention, an overflowing hole 124 is opened at one end of the connecting column 122 near the bottom wall of the spiral flow passage. Through setting up like this, even if the discharge in the spiral runner is very little, also can flow out through discharge hole 124, avoided spliced pole 122 to cause the influence to rivers. The aperture of the overflowing hole 124 is not particularly limited here as long as the overflowing function can be achieved. It is understood that the overflow aperture 124 may be formed at the end of the connecting post 122 near the bottom of the spiral flow path.

According to one embodiment of the present invention, the partition assembly is provided with a groove 127, and both ends of the connecting column 122 correspond to the groove 127, respectively.

In the embodiment of the present invention, in order to improve the assembly convenience of the connection column 122, a groove 127 is provided on the partition plate assembly, and it can be understood that both ends of the connection column 122 can be directly clamped in the groove 127. Meanwhile, by arranging the grooves 127 on the partition plate assembly, in the splicing process of the top partition plate 116, the middle partition plate 118 and the bottom partition plate 120, the positioning of the top partition plate 116, the middle partition plate 118 and the bottom partition plate 120 can be realized through the grooves 127, that is, in the actual installation process, the grooves 127 on the top partition plate 116, the middle partition plate 118 and the bottom partition plate 120 can be correspondingly arranged, and then the top partition plate 116, the middle partition plate 118 and the bottom partition plate 120 are spliced.

According to an embodiment of the present invention, the end of the drain tube 114 is provided with a mounting groove 128, and in case that the drain tube 114 is plural, adjacent two drain tubes 114 are adapted to be connected through the mounting groove 128.

In the embodiment of the present invention, a mounting groove 128 for process installation may be further provided at the end of the draft tube 114, and it is understood that when there are a plurality of draft tubes 114, the plurality of draft tubes 114 may be sequentially spliced in the axial direction thereof, and the connection between the adjacent two draft tubes 114 is facilitated by providing the mounting groove 128 at the end of the draft tube 114.

According to one embodiment of the present invention, the water producing component 100 further comprises a thermal insulation layer 130 and a temperature detecting member 132; the heat insulation layer 130 covers the outer wall of the accommodating body 102; the temperature detecting member 132 is inserted into a sidewall of the accommodating body 102 and extends into the second accommodating section 108.

Referring to fig. 1, the heat insulation layer 130 may be made of foam, the heat insulation layer 130 may be configured to be of a split structure or an integrated structure, when the heat insulation layer 130 is of a split structure, the heat insulation layer 130 may be configured to be two groups, and the split heat insulation layer 130 may be directly coated on the outer wall of the accommodating body 102 to avoid the loss of cold or heat, thereby ensuring the heat insulation effect after the preparation of cold water and hot water.

When the heat insulation layer 130 is of an integrated structure, the heat insulation layer 130 can be directly sleeved on the outer wall of the accommodating body 102 to achieve a heat insulation effect. In addition, the temperature control device 136 may be disposed between the heat insulating layer 130 and the accommodating body 102, and when the heat insulating layer 130 covers the outer wall of the accommodating body 102, the temperature control device 136 may be attached to the outer wall of the accommodating body 102.
