Problems solved by technology

[0004] Most of the beverage machines on the existing market cannot realize the identification of capsule information, resulting in problems such as poor taste and insufficient nutrient release of the brewed drinks
Although some beverage machines are also equipped with a detection device, which can also identify the capsule, there are still some problems with this detection device. When the capsule is set in the equipment, especially some identification codes are set on the diaphragm of the capsule. Due to the production process, the diaphragm cannot be completely stretched into a plane, so the angle and state of the diaphragm are variable. For example, when the puncture needle penetrates the diaphragm, the force in the middle of the diaphragm will cause deformation
After the capsule diaphragm is in contact with the sealing element, some parts of the diaphragm may also cause wrinkles. Due to the uncertainty of the capsule diaphragm, the recognition efficiency of the capsule diaphragm is low, and the accuracy is low. If the position of the fold corresponds to Optical identification device, the probability of identification failure will be greatly increased

Embodiment 1

[0045] refer to figure 1 As shown in -4, the horizontal brewing beverage machine proposed by the preferred embodiment of the present invention includes a housing 10, a brewing cup 3 for accommodating a capsule 6, a brewing head 2, a control device 1, a water inlet needle 21, and an outlet needle 22. The liquid supply mechanism 4 connected to the water inlet puncture needle 21, the driving element 5, and the sealing element 7. The upper surface of the casing 10 is provided with a feeding port 101. side, the liquid supply mechanism 4 is connected to the water inlet puncture needle 21 through a water pipe, the brewing cup 3 is arranged correspondingly to the brewing head 2, the brewing cup 3 can move horizontally relative to the brewing head 2, and the control device 1 Including the main control board 11, the main control board is provided with a storage unit, the storage unit stores identification information, brewing program, brewing parameters, etc., the control device can con...

Embodiment 2

[0067] The difference between the second embodiment and the first embodiment is that the identification probe can move linearly.

[0068] like Figure 5-1 , 5-2As shown, the optical recognition device includes a recognition probe 81, a probe cover 82, and also includes a drive link 83 and a retractable reduction motor 84. One end of the drive connection rod 83 is connected to the recognition probe 81, and the other end is connected to a retractable reduction motor 84 to slow down and expand The motor 84 drives the identification probe 81 to move from the first reading position to the second reading position through the drive connecting rod 83, and the track of the identification probe 81 moving from the first reading position to the second reading position is parallel to the plane where the diaphragm is located . Since the identification probe 81 can move, the identification area is increased. After part of the identification area on the diaphragm is polluted or worn, the id...

Embodiment 3

[0071] The difference between the third embodiment and the first embodiment is that the identification probe can move in a curve.

[0072] like Figure 6-1 , 6-2 As shown, the optical identification device includes an identification probe 81, a probe cover, a swing connecting rod 85, and a reduction motor 86. The shaft of the reduction motor 86 is connected with a first gear, and one end of the swing connection rod is provided with a gear that cooperates with the first gear. The other end of the second gear is connected with the identification probe 81. When the reduction motor 86 rotates, the first gear drives the second gear to rotate, thereby driving the swing connecting rod to drive the identification probe 81 to do a curved motion. During the curve movement, the identification probe 81 has been collecting data. Since the movement track of the identification probe is a curve, and the micro identification code on the capsule membrane 62 is read in real time on the curved ...

Abstract

The invention provides a method for identifying a capsule by a drink preparation device. The drink preparation device comprises a brewing cup, a brewing head, a control device and an identification device; the capsule is arranged in the brewing cup, and comprises a membrane with a plurality of identification regions; micro-identification codes are printed in the identification regions; the identification device comprises identification probes arranged corresponding to the identification regions; the control device is used for driving the brewing cup to move relative to the identification device; the control device is used for driving the brewing cup to move, the identification regions of the membrane move toward the direction of the identification device, and the identification device is used for reading the micro-identification codes on the membrane; and when an error is identified, the identification regions of the membrane are far from the identification device and then move once again toward the identification device. According to the method, secondary identification is carried out, so that identification failure caused by a dirty or broken region in primary identification or a wrinkled membrane in the compressing process can be effectively prevented.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of product identification, in particular to a method for identifying capsules through a beverage preparation device. [0002] technical background [0003] With the improvement of people's living standards and the adjustment of eating habits, the number of people who drink tea, soy milk, and coffee continues to increase, and it brings that beverage machines are becoming more and more popular. [0004] Most of the beverage machines on the existing market cannot realize the identification of capsule information, which leads to problems such as poor taste of the brewed beverage and insufficient nutrient release. Although some beverage machines are also equipped with a detection device, which can also identify the capsule, there are still some problems with this detection device. When the capsule is set in the equipment, especially some identification codes are set on the diaphragm of the capsule. Due to the pro...
