Abstract: A control apparatus for an artificial intelligence water purifier includes a storage device and a control unit. The storage device is configured to store discharge information that includes an amount of beverage discharged from the water purifier in a time slot of a predetermined period of time. The control unit is configured to analyze the discharge information, set the time slot in a power-saving schedule based on analysis of the discharge information, and control the water purifier to perform a power-saving operation based on determining that an operation time is within the time slot set in the power-saving schedule.

Abstract: Provided are a control device of a water purifier, a water purifier, and a control system of a water purifier. The control device of a water purifier includes a communication module transmitting operation information regarding an operation of the water purifier to a central server and receiving control information regarding control of the water purifier from the central server, and a control module generating the operation information and transmitting the generated operation information to the central server through the communication module and controlling an operation of the water purifier on the basis of the control information received from the central server.

Abstract: The present invention provides a method for controlling a drinking-water supply device, the method comprising: a first step of connecting a guide pipe of a case separated from a cabinet to form a channel through which water moves from the case to the cabinet; a second step of supplying the cabinet with hot water heated by a second hot water module included in the case; and a third step of supplying the cabinet with water which has not passed through the second hot water module included in the case, wherein a first hot water module, included in the cabinet, for heating water is not driven in the second step and the third step.

Abstract: The present invention provides a method for controlling a drinking-water supply device, the method comprising: a first step of connecting a guide pipe of a case separable from a cabinet to form a channel through which water moves from the case to the cabinet; a second step of supplying the cabinet with sterile water electrolyzed by an electrolytic module included in the case; and a third step of supplying the cabinet with water which has not passed through the electrolytic module included in the case, wherein the sterilization water and the water are supplied to the cabinet from the case via the guide pipe in the second step and the third step.

Abstract: A method of controlling a drinking water includes allowing a user to input a water discharge signal through an input lever, opening a first valve when a channel is closed by a water discharge valve to supply drinking water to a mixing tank, when the amount of drinking water supplied to the mixing tank reaches a first predetermined amount, opening a second valve to supply minerals to the mixing tank, and, when the amount of drinking water supplied to the mixing tank reaches a second predetermined amount, opening the water discharge valve to discharge mineral water to the outside through a spout.

Abstract: A method of controlling a drinking water supply device includes inputting a water discharge signal through an input lever, opening a first valve such that drinking water flows through a first channel and measuring the amount of drinking water flowing through the first channel using a flow rate sensor, opening a second valve for a predetermined time to discharge minerals when the amount of drinking water measured by the flow rate sensor reaches a first predetermined amount, and, opening the second valve again for the predetermined time to further discharge minerals when a second predetermined amount of drinking water is measured by the flow rate sensor.
