When the water level sensing probe is arranged below the water outlet machine head 5 and can penetrate into the water cup 20 when the water outlet machine head 5 is close to the tray frame 8, the water level in the water cup 20 can be conveniently detected.
In this way, when a water cup placed on the tray frame 8 needs to be added with water, the movement control mechanism enables the water outlet machine head 5 and the tray frame 8 to be close to each other, so that the water level sensing device 7 is close to the water cup 20 placed on the tray frame 8, and the water cup 20 is added with water and the water outlet machine head 5 senses the water level in the measuring cup; when the water in the water cup is added to a set height, the water adding is stopped, and finally, the water outlet machine head 5 and the tray frame 8 are separated from each other to a proper distance, so that a user can take the water cup 20 conveniently.
In addition, the tray frame 8 is provided with an automatic holding mechanical claw 9, and when the water cup 20 is placed on the upper portion of the opened automatic holding mechanical claw 9, the automatic holding mechanical claw 9 can automatically hold by mechanically rotating the three mechanical claws.
Said automatic holding gripper being composed of several, e.g. 3, expandable grippers
And the clamping jaws are tightened, and the cup sensing device can sense the position of the cup 20 in the clamping jaws by adopting a common infrared detector. The self-clinching gripper 9 is either commercially available or simply assembled by the skilled person according to the features described above.
In order to make water for a user to drink hot water, like a common water dispenser, the lifting type water level sensing water dispenser for the blind can also comprise a water heating device, and the water heating device comprises a temperature adjusting knob 4 so that the blind can select the heating water temperature. In addition, in order to facilitate the use of the visually impaired patients, the lifting type water level sensing water dispenser for the blind is provided with an LED screen display 10 on the lifting water outlet head 5, and the LED screen display is provided with a temperature display device which is connected with the water tank 2 to display the current water temperature so that the visually impaired patients can know and judge the water temperature state in an auxiliary manner. In order to facilitate the use of the blind, the water level sensor is also provided with a voice prompt device which is connected with the temperature display device and the water level sensing device 7 so as to send out voice prompt to the user that the water pouring is finished and the current water temperature is reached.
Referring to fig. 2 and 3 (fig. 3A-3E), the working process of the lifting water level sensing water dispenser for the blind provided by the invention is as follows:
when in use, the water tank cover 1 is opened, and cold water is added into the transparent water tank 2, and the transparent water tank 2 is fixed with the base 3. When the visually impaired people need to receive water, the automatic holding mechanical claw 9 arranged on the cup tray frame 8 is placed with the cup 20, the visually impaired people are guided to accurately place the cup 20 below the water outlet and fix the cup, then a proper water temperature is selected by rotating the temperature adjusting knob 4 with embedded salient point braille, the large-scale LED screen display 10 on the lifting water outlet machine head 5 displays the current water temperature, the understanding and auxiliary judgment of the water temperature state are provided for the visually impaired people, after the water temperature adjustment is finished, the temperature adjusting knob 4 is pressed downwards to be regarded as determined water outlet, at the moment, the lifting water outlet machine head 5 can automatically move downwards to the top of the cup 20 to stop, then the drinking water is injected from the water injection port 6 until the water level sensing probe 7 detects that the water is full, the water injection is stopped, the automatic return stroke of the lifting water outlet machine head 5 is realized, and the voice prompt is given that the user finishes.
Through the above description, the lifting type water level sensing water dispenser for the blind provided by the invention achieves the following technical effects:
1. the temperature selection mode which is easy for the visually impaired people to operate is required, and the weak can see or sense some using states (such as water temperature) as much as possible, so that the experience of using the water dispenser is improved.
2. When the water cup is used for receiving boiled water, the user does not need to hold and hold the water cup, and meanwhile, scalding caused by water splashing due to water fall is further avoided.
Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used for illustrating the technical solutions of the present invention and are not limited. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the embodiments, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes may be made and equivalents may be substituted without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention as defined in the appended claims.
