Further, the floating block 14 may be movably disposed in the outlet pipe 13. The float 14 can float on the liquid surface to move with the liquid level in the outlet pipe 13, so that the liquid level can be observed by observing the position of the float 14, and the float 14 can be made into a non-transparent structure, so that the observation is easier. Furthermore, the installation of the water outlet pipe 13 is not limited by the installation angle, the installation difficulty of the water outlet pipe 13 is reduced, the installation is convenient and rapid, and therefore the assembly efficiency of the liquid container is improved.

Alternatively, the density of the slider 14 may be less than the density of the liquid within the container body so that the slider 14 remains at the surface of the liquid. Further, the liquid in the container body may be drinking water, and the density of the floating block 14 may be less than that of the drinking water. In particular, the slider 14 may be made of a food grade plastic or rubber material to avoid contamination of drinking water. Alternatively, the slider 14 may be a hollow sphere, but is not limited thereto. In order to more clearly view the slider 14, the slider 14 may be red, black, yellow, etc., so that the liquid level in the liquid container can be more conveniently and quickly viewed without being limited by the angle of refraction.

In order to improve the smoothness of the movement of the floating block 14, the floating block 14 may be a sphere, and the diameter of the floating block 14 is smaller than that of the water outlet pipe 13.

Furthermore, the water outlet pipe 13 may include a straight pipe 131 extending longitudinally, the floating block 14 is acted by gravity and buoyancy in the straight pipe 131, the floating block 14 moves more sensitively, and compared with a curved pipeline, the floating block 14 may be straight up and down in the straight pipe 131, so as to avoid the collision between the floating block 14 and the pipe wall of the water outlet pipe 13, thereby improving the smoothness of the movement of the floating block 14. As an example, the straight pipe 131 is arranged at the liquid level display window 18 to facilitate liquid level observation.

Further, the outlet pipe 13 may further include a first bent pipe 132 and a second bent pipe 133, the first bent pipe 132 is disposed at the bottom of the container body and is communicated between the container body and the straight pipe 131, and the second bent pipe 133 is connected between the straight pipe 131 and the outlet 12 of the liquid container. So set up, through set up first return bend 132 and second return bend 133 at the both ends of straight tube 131, the delivery port 12 of outlet pipe 13 and liquid container of being convenient for and the inside chamber intercommunication that holds of liquid container avoid outlet pipe 13 to appear buckling and then lead to going out water unsmoothly.

For example, the straight tube 131, the first bent tube 132, and the second bent tube 133 may be formed separately and then assembled together, but not limited thereto, and the water outlet tube 13 may be formed integrally. In the present embodiment, an example in which the straight tube 131, the first bent tube 132, and the second bent tube 133 are independently formed will be described.

In order to prevent the floating block 14 from being separated from the water outlet pipe 13, the liquid container further comprises a pair of stopper plugs 17 for stopping the floating block 14, the pair of stopper plugs 17 is arranged in the water outlet pipe 13, and the floating block 14 is positioned between the pair of stopper plugs 17, wherein the stopper plugs 17 are provided with through holes 172, and the diameter of the through holes 172 is smaller than that of the floating block 14. Further, a pair of stopper plugs 17 are disposed at both ends of the straight pipe 131, for example, but not limited to, the pair of stopper plugs 17 may be disposed above and below the liquid level display window 18, respectively, so that the slider 14 may be maintained within a visible range. Referring to fig. 3, as an example, the stopper plug 17 may include a ring-shaped base 171, a through hole 172 is disposed on the base 171, and the outlet pipe 13 may be provided with a step or a groove matching the base 171 such that the base 171 is disposed at the step or the groove.

Further, a pair of stop plugs 17 are respectively arranged at the joint of the first elbow 132 and the straight tube 131 and the joint of the second elbow 133 and the straight tube 131, so that one end of the first elbow 132 can be sleeved on the periphery of one end of the straight tube 131, a step can be formed at one end of the straight tube 131, and the base 171 can be clamped at the step, that is, the base 171 can be abutted against the end of one end of the straight tube 131. Similarly, one end of the second elbow 133 may be sleeved on the periphery of the other end of the straight tube 131, and the base 171 may abut against the end of the other end of the straight tube 131. So set up, reduced the equipment degree of difficulty of outlet pipe 13.
