[0001] HOT WATER SUPPLY DEVICE FOR CUP WARM UP [0002]

The present invention relates to a hot water supply device, and more particularly, to a hot water supply device for supplying hot water to a hot water supply device, To a hot water supply device.

Generally, the hot water supply device is used to supply hot water for drinking of disposable food such as cup noodles at a convenience store, or to supply water heated to a certain temperature by being installed in a coffee machine of a water purifier or a coffee shop.

As an example of such a conventional hot water supply device, a hot water supply device capable of hot water intake on the spot has been proposed in Patent Application No. 2012-38687.

That is, the conventional hot water supply device includes a heater for heating cold water flowing from outside, an outlet valve for controlling the amount of water coming out of the heater, a temperature sensor for measuring an outflow temperature of the outflow water, And the control unit controls the degree of opening of the outflow valve in accordance with the change of the temperature of the water supply valve, so that the supply operation is performed as necessary in a state where the raw water at room temperature stored in the storage tank is heated by a heater to a predetermined temperature or more.

On the other hand, the hot water supply device is used to dry and preheat the cup by placing the cup on the upper surface of the device because the upper surface of the device is maintained at a certain temperature due to the heat conduction phenomenon of the internal hot water.

However, in the conventional hot water supply device, since there is no separate fall prevention structure around the upper surface, when the external impact is applied in a state where the cup is placed, there is a problem that the cup falls and breaks.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention has been proposed in order to solve the problems in the prior art described above, and it is an object of the present invention to provide a balustrade structure for preventing falling of a cup around an upper surface of a hot water supply device, .

Technical Solution According to an aspect of the present invention, there is provided a refrigerator including a main body housing having a hot water discharge valve on a front surface thereof, a hot water tank formed in the main housing, a cold water inlet provided at a rear end of the hot water tank, And a heating unit for heating the water introduced through the cup holder, wherein the cup holder is provided on the upper surface of the main body housing, And a safety guard for preventing the cup from dropping is formed around the cup seating part.

The present invention constitutes a safety guardrail along the upper periphery of the hot water supply device, thereby preventing the occurrence of breakage due to falling during the storage of the cup for drying and preheating.

Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

1 to 4, there is shown a hot water supply device according to an embodiment of the present invention. The hot water supply device includes a main body housing 10 having a hot water discharge valve 11 on its front side, A cold water inlet 21 provided at the rear end side of the hot water tank 20 and a heating means 22 for heating the water introduced through the cold water inlet 21 A cup mounting portion 12 is formed on the upper surface of the main body housing 10 to form a flat surface so that the cup C can be placed and stored, A safety guard 50 for preventing the falling of the cup C is formed.

In particular, it is preferable that the safety rails 50 are provided at three sides and are formed on both sides of the cup receiving portion 12, respectively, so that the cup C can easily enter and exit through the front portion.

In addition, the cup receiving portion 12 is formed with a detachable groove 13 for allowing the safety railing 50 to be attached and detached, and a locking jaw 51 is provided at both ends of the safety railing 50 corresponding to the detachable groove 13 .

Hereinafter, effects of the hot water supply device according to the present invention will be described.

The water supplied to the hot water tank 20 through the cold water inlet 21 is heated to a predetermined temperature by the heating means 22. The steam of the hot water tank 20 rises The cup seating portion 12 on the upper surface of the main body housing 10 is in a high temperature state.

Accordingly, if the mug is washed and placed on the cup receiving part 12, the heat is transferred and the cup C is quickly dried and preheated.

At this time, since the safety railing 50 is installed in the periphery of the present invention, it is prevented that the cup C is dropped during the storage process, so that a more stable cup storage state can be maintained.

In addition, since the safety railing 50 has a detachable structure that can be attached and detached according to need, it is possible to move the hot water supply device or to work while separating the safety railing 50 during a cleaning operation.

In addition, the security guardrail 50 has an advantage that it can be quickly replaced when it is damaged or deformed.

Accordingly, it can be seen that a larger amount of the cup C can be safely stored by constructing the safety railing 50 in the hot water supply apparatus of the present invention.

5 and 6 illustrate a configuration according to another embodiment of the present invention. The leaf spring 52 for resilient coupling is formed in the detachable groove 13 at both ends of the safety guardrail 50, The spring 52 has a curved shape with a predetermined curvature, and one side of the leaf spring 52 has an open structure to allow flow.

When the safety railing 50 is assembled to the detachable groove 13, the safety rail 50 is easily detached from the safety railing 50 while the stable state is maintained by the elastic force of the leaf spring 52. [ .

When the safety railing (50) is separated, the operator can easily separate the safety railing (50) by the elastic force of the leaf spring (52).

7 and 8 illustrate a hot water supply apparatus according to another embodiment of the present invention.

That is, as shown in the figure, it can be confirmed that the cup seating portion 12 is formed with a plurality of guide grooves 14 in a stripe shape at regular intervals to facilitate the circulation and drainage of air.

When the guide groove 14 is formed, the flow of air through the guide groove 14 allows air to flow into the cup C that is seated in the cup receiving portion 12, .

In addition, when the cup C in which the water is cleaned is placed in an upside-down position, the flowing water can be discharged through the guide groove 14, so that a more clean washing and drying state can be maintained.

9 is a view illustrating a state in which the openable safety cover is applied to the hot water supply device of the present invention.

As shown in the figure, the opening and closing lid 60 for preventing the cup C placed on the upper surface of the main housing 10 from being exposed and falling from the outside is opened and closed around the hinge shaft 61, It can be confirmed that it is configured as possible.

When the opening and closing lid 60 is constructed as described above, the cup C is prevented from being exposed to the outside, and a space for keeping the heat is formed, thereby further improving the drying and preheating effect of the cup C.

In addition, since foreign substances are prevented from entering from the outside, a hygienic cup can be stored.

Although specific embodiments of the present invention have been illustrated and described above, it should be apparent that the hot water supply system of the present invention can be implemented in various ways by those skilled in the art.

It should be understood, however, that such modified embodiments are not to be understood individually from the spirit and scope of the invention, and such modified embodiments are intended to be included within the scope of the appended claims.
