Automatic coffee maker with detachable bean grinding device

Abstract

Disclosed is an automatic coffee machine with a detachable bean-grinding apparatus. A detaching/installing and adjusting mechanism for the bean-grinding apparatus comprises a connecting part connected in an easily detachable fashion with a bean case component (13), and an adjusting part able to adjust an upper grinding wheel component (14) in performing reciprocal movements so as to adjust the grinding distance of the upper grinding wheel component (14) and a lower grinding wheel component (12). Cleaning and maintenance of the grinding components by a user is facilitated while the fineness of ground powder granules can be adjusted as needed. A powder outlet channel (10) of a bean-grinding chamber (9) is an inclined pipe structure, and the top part of an opening in the initial portion of the powder outlet channel (10) intersects with a side wall (32) and a bottom face (34) of the bean-grinding chamber (9). The distance between the outermost end of a coffee grounds remover tray (11) and the rotational centreline of the coffee grounds remover tray (11) is greater than the minimum distance between the opening in the initial portion of the powder outlet channel (10) and the rotational centreline of the coffee grounds remover tray (11). By means of the inclined powder outlet channel (10) coffee powder can freely slide into a brewing apparatus, and the coffee grounds remover tray (11) plays the role of preventing the risk of and eliminating powder blocking the bean-grinding chamber (9) and the power outlet channel (10).

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of brewing equipment for coffee or similar beverages, in particular to an automatic coffee machine with a detachable bean grinding device. Background technique [0002] On the market, for automatic coffee machines with coffee bean grinding devices, there are two ways to fix the grinding components: [0003] One is fixed on the coffee machine body by fasteners, which cannot be easily disassembled by the user. When the grinder mechanism is blocked or needs to be cleaned, it is often necessary to disassemble the whole machine, which causes great damage The experience of using an automatic coffee machine with a grinder; [0004] The other is locked on the body of the coffee machine in a certain way.

Problems solved by technology

[0003] One is fixed on the coffee machine body by fasteners, which cannot be easily disassembled by the user. When the grinder mechanism is blocked or needs to be cleaned, it is often necessary to disassemble the whole machine, which causes great damage The experience of using an automatic coffee machine with a grinder;

[0004] The other is locked on the body of the coffee machine in a certain way. The user can loosen the bean box assembly in a certain way, but the opening at the bottom of the bean box assembly cannot be closed. When the user removes the grinding assembly, The coffee beans remaining in the bean hopper assembly will fall down and dirty the user's kitchen floor. The user can only pour out the coffee beans in the bean hopper assembly by turning over the coffee machine, and then remove the bean hopper assembly. The operation is not convenient enough

[0005] At the same time, there are two ways to set up the powder outlet channel and the slag removal tray of the existing automatic coffee machine with a bean grinding device. One is to set the powder outlet channel on the side of the grinder chamber, and the scum removal tray There is no intersection with the opening of the beginning part of the powder outlet channel. In this setting, because the coffee beans are ground into coffee powder, they cannot directly fall into the opening part of the beginning part of the powder outlet channel, and can only be pushed to the front by the ground coffee powder from the back. The ground coffee powder is used to form the movement of the coffee powder in the powder outlet channel, so the coffee powder will always remain in the powder outlet channel, and at the same time, the slag cleaning tray cannot prevent powder blocking at the opening of the powder outlet channel. ;The other one sets the powder outlet channel at the bottom of the bean grinding chamber, which claims that the coffee powder falls straight down by gravity, but the same cannot prevent powder blocking at the opening of the beginning part of the powder outlet channel
