A sterilized liquid module is provided in the internal member and includes a casing having an inner space to receive the liquid, and at least one electrode positioned parallel to a longitudinal direction of the casing, installed in the inner space of the casing, and configured to generate the sterilized liquid through electrolysis of liquid in the inner space of the casing.

Liquid dispensing device

A dispenser includes a water supply flow path to guide water supplied from a water supply source toward a filter; an auxiliary flow path to branch off at the first point of the water supply flow path and then to merge into a second point located downstream of the first point; a flow switching valve installed at the first point to control a flow from the water supply flow path to the auxiliary flow path; a water ejection nozzle through which filtered is ejected; a hot water module forming a heating flow path and configured to heat the purified water into hot water; a hot water flow path configured to guide the hot water passing through the hot water module toward the water ejection nozzle; and a controller to control the flow switching valve and the hot water module.

Liquid dispenser

Provided is a liquid dispensing device. The liquid dispensing device includes an internal member coupled to a sink and a nozzle. A liquid processing module is installed separately from the dispenser and may include components to generate, for example, a heated liquid, a cooled liquid, or a liquid having a sterilizing agent. Piping coupling the liquid processing module to the nozzle may extend through the internal member, and one or more components may couple the internal member under the sink. One or more valves may be positioned on the piping to direct fluid from the liquid processing module to the nozzle or to discharge fluid.

Provided is a liquid dispensing device. The liquid dispensing device includes a cylinder body coupled to a sink and at least one nozzle coupled to the cylinder body. The at least one nozzle may include a first liquid discharge nozzle coupled to an upper region of the cylinder body to extend horizontally, the first liquid discharge nozzle being configured to supply a drinkable liquid, such as a purified liquid, a heated liquid, or a cooled liquid. The at least one nozzle may a second liquid discharge nozzle coupled to the cylinder body to extend horizontally, the second liquid discharge nozzle being positioned to be spaced apart from the first liquid discharge nozzle to supply a non-drinkable liquid, such as a sterilizing liquid containing hypochlorous acid or other additive.

Provided is a water purifier. The water purifier includes a water purifier body provided with a filter, purifying raw water supplied from the outside, and supplying purified water, a water discharge module of which at least a portion is coupled to protrude to the front of the water purifier body so that at least a portion thereof rotates or is elevated with respect to the water purifier body and which is provided with a water discharge nozzle, which supplies the purified water supplied from the water purifier body to a user, in a lower end thereof, a driving unit providing power providing power required for the rotation and elevation of the water discharge module, a detection unit installed in the water purifier body or the water discharge module to recognize a position and size of a container placed around the water purifier body, and a control unit receiving position information and size information of the container from the detection unit to control the driving unit so that the water discharge nozzle moves above the container.

Water purifier and method for controlling the same

A purification device comprises a main body having an opening in a front-face thereof; a rotator disposed in the opening to be rotatably mounted on the main body; a manipulation structure spaced from and above the rotator and rotatably connected to a top face of the main body, the manipulation structure protruding forward of the main body; and a water-outlet including; a first cover fixed to the rotator through the opening, the first cover protruding forward of the main body, and a top of the first cover being connected to a bottom of the manipulation structure; a second cover vertically movable while being held in contact with the first cover; and a nozzle on a bottom of the second cover; wherein when the second cover rises to a highest level, a top of the second cover is located in a space between the rotator and the manipulation structure.

Liquid purifier and method for controlling the same

The present disclosure provides a purification device comprising: a main body, and a water-outlet module, wherein the module includes a fixed cover fixed to the main body so as to protrude forward of the main body, a vertically-movable cover moving vertically while bearing against the fixed cover, and a water-outlet nozzle mounted on a bottom of the vertically-movable cover, wherein a stopping protrusion protrudes outward from a bottom lateral face of the vertically-movable cover.

Purification device

A purification device comprises a main body having an open extending horizontally; a rotator in the opening to be rotatably mounted on the main body; and a manipulation structure spaced from and above the rotator and rotatably connected to a top face of the main body, the manipulation structure protruding forward of the main body. The device also includes a water-outlet module with a fixed cover fixed to the rotator through the opening, the fixed cover protruding forward of the main body, and a top of the fixed cover being connected to a bottom of the manipulation structure; a vertically-movable cover held in contact with the fixed cover; and a water-outlet nozzle mounted onto a bottom of the vertically-movable cover. When the vertically-movable cover rises to a highest level, a top of the vertically-movable cover is located in a space between the rotator and the manipulation structure.

A liquid dispenser includes a first lifting cover, a second lifting cover, a lifting motor, a gear module, and a dispenser nozzle. The first lifting cover includes a lifting gear extending in a vertical direction. The gear module includes a gear bracket coupled to the second lifting cover and a gear. The gear is rotated along the lifting gear by the operation of the lifting motor, and the second lifting cover is relatively moved with respect to the first lifting cover in the vertical direction.

Water purifier and control method of a water purifier

A purification device comprises a main body; and a water-outlet module formed to protrude forward of the main body, wherein the water-outlet module includes a water-outlet nozzle for supplying water passing through the filter out of the main body, wherein the water-outlet module includes: a casing, wherein at least a portion of the water-outlet nozzle is mounted on a bottom of the casing so as to be exposed to an outside; a water-supply hose, wherein one end thereof is connected to an inside of the main body while the other end thereof is provided inside the casing and is connected to the water-outlet nozzle, such water from the main body is supplied to the water-outlet nozzle; and a valve provided within the casing, wherein the valve is provided above the water-discharge nozzle and is installed on the water-supply hose to control a flow of water through the water-supply hose.

The present disclosure provides a purification device comprising: a main body, and a water-outlet module, wherein the module includes a fixed cover fixed to the main body so as to protrude forward of the main body, a vertically-movable cover moving vertically while bearing against the fixed cover, and a water-outlet nozzle mounted on a bottom of the vertically-movable cover, wherein the vertically-movable cover or the fixed cover includes a removable cover configured to be removable in a direction crossing a vertical movement direction of the vertically-movable cover.
