Description

Bubble drink device

The invention relates to a bubble drink device.

In recent years, as drinking water equipment has become more and more common, drinking fountains with only water outlet functions at different temperatures have become increasingly unable to meet the diverse needs of modern people for drinking water, so bubble water devices have become very popular recently. The bubble water produced by the product can make consumers have a bubble taste when drinking, to enhance the fun of drinking water. The conventional bubble water device is to inject high-pressure gas directly into a container through the opening of a pipeline In the liquid, so that the gas and liquid are mixed. However, in this mixing method, the gas often floats to the surface before being mixed with the liquid. Therefore, not only will the high-pressure gas consume a great amount, but also the bubble density of the liquid will be insufficient, and there are shortcomings that need to be improved.

Therefore, it is necessary to provide a novel and progressive bubble drink device to solve the above problems.
