Abstract
A water purifier includes a cooling water tank, a partition member mounted inside the cooling water tank and partitioning an inner space of the cooling water tank into an upper space and a lower space, a cold water pipe accommodated in the lower space; an evaporator accommodated in the upper space, and an agitator penetrating the partition member and disposed in the lower space. The partition member includes a bottom portion on which the evaporator is mounted and that defines a plurality of cooling water through-holes, and an outer wall portion extending upward along an edge of the bottom portion to define an evaporator accommodating portion. The outer wall portion is spaced apart from an inner wall of the cooling water tank to prevent ice formed in the evaporator accommodating portion from contacting the inner wall of the cooling water tank.
