However, until now, coffee vending machines have been integrated with water purifiers, and thus the product price due to high production cost is expensive, which imposes a burden on the consumer, thus losing the practicality compared to the functions. It is composed of a structure filled with water, and it is inconvenient to replace the water tank when the water drops during use, and it is not sanitary when replacing the water bottle, and when the water bottle is replaced, the bucket coupling part that separates the water bottle is exposed as it is. There was an inconvenience of having to open the main body of the coffee vending machine in order to supply paper cups and hygiene problems such as the input or the possibility of entering.

Therefore, in the present design, an automatic water supply device equipped with a water filter is connected to an external water supply to a portion of the water tank of the existing coffee vending machine, and is easily installed and used in the existing coffee vending machine. The purpose is to make it easier to feed paper cups.

The present invention developed for the above purpose, a powder storage container for storing coffee or other tea powder, a powder discharge system for discharging a predetermined amount of coffee or other tea powder stored in the powder storage container, and to store the water supplied from the outside A reservoir, a heating unit for heating the water of the reservoir, a hot water discharge system for discharging the water heated by the heating unit by a predetermined amount, the powder reservoir and the powder discharge system, the reservoir, the heating unit, and the hot water discharge It is composed of a body that has a built-in system and a blocking plate that opens and closes the opening and opening of the cup insertion hole on the top, and a cup storage unit which is installed to open and close to the body and receives a cup to receive coffee. A door having a coffee discharge part for discharging, and a water supply structure coupled to the water storage tank and connected to an external water pipe for supplying purified water to the tap water In the coffee vending machines constructed by,

 Comprising the blocking plate for drilling and opening and closing the cup insertion hole corresponding to the cup storage unit configured in the door on the top of the body,

The water tank for storing the water supplied from the outside is configured to combine the water supply structure of the water filter connected to the external water pipe in the state using the existing water tank as it is in the existing water tank inlet so that the tap water is automatically supplied.

Here, the water supply structure, a distribution unit constituting a valve coupled to the existing water pipe, a water supply hose coupled to the distribution unit, the emergency valve is connected to the water supply hose is installed to be exposed to the outside, and A water level control valve connected to the water supply hose from the emergency valve to the body and opened and closed by a buoyancy installed at the end of the water supply hose connected to the water discharge port through which the purified water of the water filter is discharged; The water tank insertion hole stopper configured to penetrate the inner center of the water supply hose and seal the existing water tank insertion hole configured in the body, and the water level control valve is integrally installed and installed to adjust the water level of the water tank by entering the existing water tank. It consists of a cover configured to seal the inlet of the reservoir.

The above-mentioned design is simply installed in the existing widespread coffee vending machine, and instead of supplying water to a bucket, tap water piped to an office, a restaurant, a nightlife, or other public places can be directly and easily supplied at the tap water pipe at an inexpensive price. It is a new and useful design that is installed to supply water, which is convenient to use, hygienic and prevents contamination from the outside, and makes it easy to supply paper cups.
