As shown in FIG.
According to the above configuration, the present invention can maintain the water level of the tank configured to supply the stored water to the user, and can continuously supply a constant amount of water to the user.
Description
The present invention relates to a water supply device for supplying water to a user, and more particularly to a water supply device to maintain the water level of the tank level configured to supply the stored water to the user.
The water supply device is a device configured to store water and supply the stored water to a user. Such a water supply device is provided to, for example, a water purifier and the like, and the purified water filtered by the water filter of the water purifier flows in and is stored and supplied to the user.
Such a water supply device includes a tank configured to store water and supply the stored water to a user. Then, water is discharged from the tank configured to store the water and the stored water is supplied to the user and supplied to the user. Conventionally, such a tank has a problem that the water level of the tank is lowered when water is discharged to the outside and supplied to the user as described above.
Then, when the water level of the tank is lowered in this way, there is a problem that the height difference of the water discharge pipe connected to the tank is reduced so that the water level of the tank and water is discharged to the outside. Accordingly, since the water pressure is reduced, there is a problem that the amount of water discharged through the water discharge pipe is reduced.
That is, when water is discharged from the tank to the outside and the water level of the tank is lowered, there is a problem that the amount of water discharged through the water discharge pipe is also reduced. Accordingly, there is a problem in that it is not possible to continuously supply a constant amount of water to the user.
The present invention is made by recognizing at least one of the needs or problems occurring in the conventional water supply apparatus as described above.
One aspect of the object of the present invention is to ensure that the level of the tank configured to supply stored water to the user maintains the full level.
Another aspect of the object of the present invention is to be able to continuously supply a constant amount of water to the user.
A water supply device according to an embodiment for realizing at least one of the above problems may include the following features.
The present invention is based on the fact that the water level of the tank, which is basically configured to supply stored water to the user, maintains the full water level.
Water supply apparatus according to an embodiment of the present invention is a first tank in which water is introduced and stored; A second tank configured to store water supplied from the first tank and to supply the stored water to the user; And a water level maintenance unit connected to the first tank and the second tank so that the water level of the second tank maintains the full water level. As shown in FIG.
In this case, the water level holding unit may be configured to supply the water in the first tank to the second tank so that the water level of the second tank becomes a full water level when it is detected that the water level of the second tank is lower than the full water level.
In addition, the water level maintenance portion is connected to the first tank on one side and the water supply valve is provided in the water supply pipe connected to the second tank; High water level sensor provided in the second tank; A control unit connected to the water supply valve and the full water level sensor to control the water supply valve by receiving a signal from the full water level sensor; . ≪ / RTI >
The water supply valve may be a solenoid valve.
In addition, the second tank may be configured to cool the stored water.
The second tank may be provided with an evaporation tube through which a low temperature refrigerant flows.
In addition, the second tank may be provided with a thermoelectric module.
And, Ice making unit for supplying the ice to the second tank; As shown in FIG.
In addition, the ice making unit may include an evaporator through which a refrigerant flows.
The ice making unit may include a thermoelectric module.
The second tank may also be configured to heat the stored water.
In addition, the second tank may be provided with a heater.
As described above, according to the exemplary embodiment of the present invention, the level of the tank configured to supply the stored water to the user may be maintained at the full level.
In addition, according to an embodiment of the present invention, it is possible to continuously supply a constant amount of water to the user.
