Description
The present invention relates to an airflow system for a cold / hot water supply system, in which an air filter is provided at an upper end of a water tank storage unit, thereby preventing flooding of an air filter due to water overflow of a water tank storage unit, And an air vent indicator for indicating when water is flowing into the air vent tube is installed to visually check whether the water heater is abnormal or not.
Generally, a cold / hot water supply system is provided in a place not adjacent to a water supply source of water supply, for example, in a construction site or a hot water booth in an office, and is used after installing a cartridge type water bottle containing already purified water.
In the case of such a cold / hot water dispenser, it is largely divided into two types depending on the method of installing the water bottle.
One is a spill type in which a sealing cover formed in a water tank is removed, a water tank is lifted up to insert an inlet of a water tank into a water tank mounting portion, and the other is formed with a pointed portion in a water tank mounting portion, The inlet of the water bottle can be inserted into the water bottle mounting portion without any change, so that the sealing cover of the water bottle can be opened by the pointed portion in the water bottle mounting portion (non-spill sype).
Since the cold water cork and the hot water coke are individually provided in the cold / hot water machine, it is possible to supply cold water through the cold water cork and hot water through the hot water coke.
Such a cold / hot water heater is disclosed in Korean Patent Laid-Open Publication No. 10-2013-0059315.
In order to fill the inside of the cold water tank or the hot water tank of the cold / hot water heater, an air vent for introducing the outside air to the outside of the room should be installed.
Conventionally, an air filter is provided inside a cylindrical body for introducing outside air, and guides air to be introduced into and discharged from a cold water tank or a hot water tank.
However, the tubular body for introducing outside air as described above is located at the lower end portion where the water tank is installed and the water tank is broken, or when the water tank is overflowed due to a malfunction, the air filter is immersed in water and air can not flow in and out, And water can not be properly introduced into and discharged from the cold water tank.
In addition, when the air filter is submerged in water, the user can not use the water heater until the air filter is replaced or the water is removed.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION Accordingly, it is an object of the present invention to solve the problems of the prior art as described above, and it is an object of the present invention to provide an air filter provided at an upper end of a water tank storage unit, An air vent system is installed in the storage unit to vertically extend the air vent tube, and an air vent indicator is provided to indicate when water is flowing into the air vent tube, thereby visually confirming the abnormality of the cold / hot water system. .
According to an aspect of the present invention, there is provided an air flow-through system for a cold / hot water supply system including a hot water tank or a cold water tank installed therein, A top cover installed on one side of the main body of the water cooler and having an inlet hole formed at the center thereof and having an inlet for a water bottle inserted therein and guiding water supply to the hot water tank or the cold water tank; A water tank storage unit in which a space is formed in the hot water tank or the cold water tank and the water tank is inserted and fixed, and a water pipe connected to the hot water tank or the cold water tank, An air discharge line which guides the air discharged from the hot water tank or the cold water tank, And the air discharged to the outside of the hot water tank or the cold water tank is connected to the outside of the hot water tank, An air vent tube for guiding air to the outside through the air vent tube, an air filter installed at an upper end of the air vent tube for purifying the air discharged to the outside through the air vent tube, .
In the air vent tube, when air flows into the air vent tube, air is guided to be discharged through the outside, and when water flows into the air vent tube, An air vent indicator for indicating overflow is further provided.
The air vent indicator includes an indicator body installed inside the air vent tube and rising by buoyancy when water flows into the air vent tube, and an indicator body installed on a lower surface of the indicator body, A guide rib formed to protrude from the bottom surface of the indicator body so as to separate the indicator body from the bottom surface of the air vent tube and a guide rib protruding from the center of the upper surface of the indicator body, And a contact prevention protrusion for preventing the filter from coming into close contact with the filter.
Wherein the ball-top member is installed at one side of the hot-water tank or the cold-water tank and has a ball-top body having an outlet and an inlet at the upper and lower centers respectively, an outer diameter smaller than an inner diameter of the ball- A lifting member that is lifted by buoyancy when water flows into the inside of the body; and a lifting member that is installed at a lower portion of the lifting member and is formed on a lower surface of the lifting member to separate the lifting member from the bottom surface of the body A sealing member provided on an upper surface of the elevating member to closely contact the upper inside of the body of the ball so as to prevent water from flowing into the outlet side; And a guide shaft inserted into the outlet to guide the upward and downward movement of the elevating member.
The sealing member may be made of a flexible material and may further include a plurality of tightly coupled portions protruding radially from the central surface of the lifting member in a circular ring shape on an upper surface thereof.
