Obviously, the described embodiments are partial embodiments of the present invention, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work belong to the protection scope of the present invention.

[0020] Embodiment 1

[0021] The structural schematic diagram (cross-sectional view) of the waste suction device of the first embodiment of the present invention is as follows: Figure 1 See also Figure 2; It includes a cavity 1; the cavity 1 is provided with a solid-liquid separation component 2; the solid-liquid separation component 2 divides the internal space of the cavity 1 into a residue storage cavity 10 and a water storage cavity 11; the residue storage cavity 10 is used to store solid waste; the water storage cavity 11 is used to store liquid wastewater; it also includes a waste transfer pipe 3 connected to the residue storage cavity 10, and a waste suction component 40 for sucking waste into the residue storage cavity 10; when in use, the brewing cavity and the residue storage cavity 10 are connected by the waste transfer pipe 3, and the solid-liquid mixed waste is sucked into the residue storage cavity 10 by the waste suction component 40, and then the solid-liquid separation component 2 is used to separate the solid and liquid waste. The solid waste will be retained in the residue chamber 10, and the liquid waste water will be retained in the water chamber 11; the waste suction component 40 is used to absorb the waste generated by brewing into the residue chamber 10, so as to clean the waste in the brewing chamber. It is not only simple to operate, but also will not pollute the desktop, the ground and other places, so as not to cause additional cleaning problems; the solid-liquid separation component 2 is used to separate the waste into solid waste and liquid waste water, so that the subsequent garbage disposal is more convenient. For example, the solid waste can be directly poured into the trash can, and the liquid waste water can be directly poured into the sewer.

[0022] It should be noted that:

[0023] 1. In addition to the solid-liquid separation components described below, the solid-liquid separation components may also be other existing solid-liquid separation components, for example, a centrifugal solid-liquid separation component having a structural principle similar to a centrifuge, and an oscillating solid-liquid separation component having a structural principle similar to an oscillating screen;

[0024] Second, in addition to the waste suction component described below, the waste suction component may also be a slag suction pump, which may be arranged in the waste transfer pipe or in the slag storage chamber;

[0025] 3. To take out the solid waste slag from the slag storage chamber, in addition to the following methods, one is to open a slag outlet on the wall of the slag storage chamber, and set a valve at the slag outlet. When slag discharge is required, the valve is opened and the chamber is tilted toward the valve direction to pour out the waste slag. When slag discharge is not required, the valve is closed. The other is to open a slag outlet on the wall of the slag storage chamber, set a valve at the slag outlet, and set a slag sweeping component in the chamber. When slag discharge is required, the valve is opened, and the slag sweeping component sweeps the waste slag out through the slag outlet. The slag sweeping component may include an electric push rod and a push plate, and the push plate is fixed to the movable end of the electric push rod;

[0026] 4. To remove liquid waste water from the water storage chamber, in addition to the method described below, an outlet can be opened on the wall of the water storage chamber and a valve can be set at the outlet. When the waste water needs to be discharged, the valve is opened, and when it does not need to be discharged, the valve is closed. In addition, a hose can be set at the corresponding outlet to guide the waste water to the sewer or other external places where waste water can be discharged.

[0027] Preferably, the solid-liquid separation component 2 includes a filter screen 20 fixedly mounted on the cavity 1; the filter screen 20 divides the internal space of the cavity 1 into a residue storage chamber 10 and a water storage chamber 11; the residue storage chamber 10 and the water storage chamber 11 are distributed in sequence up and down; when the waste is sucked into the residue storage chamber 10 by the waste suction component 40, it will fall on the filter screen 20, and the solid waste residue in the waste will be blocked by the filter screen 20 and retained on the filter screen 20, while the liquid waste water in the waste will enter the water storage chamber 11 through the filter holes on the filter screen 20, thereby achieving solid-liquid separation. The solid-liquid separation is achieved using the filter screen 20 at a low cost.

[0028] Preferably, the filter screen 20 has a protrusion 200; the protrusion 200 is formed by the filter screen 20 protruding upward; the upper cavity wall of the residue storage chamber 10 is provided with a waste inlet 100; the waste inlet 100 is directly opposite to the protrusion 200; the waste transfer pipe 3 is connected to the waste inlet 100; under the action of the waste suction component 40, the waste enters the residue storage chamber 10 through the waste transfer pipe 3 and the waste inlet 100. Since the waste inlet 100 is directly opposite to the protrusion 200, the waste will first fall on the upper end of the protrusion 200, and then slide down along the side of the protrusion 200 under the action of its own gravity, and finally stay in the part around the protrusion 200. The setting of the raised portion 200, firstly, prevents the waste from falling directly onto the filter 20, but first slides down along the side of the raised portion 200, and then stays on the portion of the filter 20 located around the raised portion. During the sliding process of the waste, the liquid wastewater in the waste can fall into the water storage chamber 11 through the filter holes on the filter 20, and the solid-liquid separation effect is good. Secondly, it plays a guiding role for the waste, so that the waste will not be completely accumulated on the portion of the filter 20 facing the waste inlet 100, and the portion of the filter 20 located around the raised portion can be effectively utilized, thereby increasing the utilization rate of the filter 20.

[0029] The longitudinal cross-sectional shape of the protrusion 200 can be a triangle, a semi-ellipse, a trapezoid or a rectangle. When the longitudinal cross-sectional shape of the protrusion 200 is a semi-ellipse, it not only has a good guiding effect on the waste, but also the solid waste residue in the waste is not easily retained on the protrusion 200.

[0030] Preferably, a waste guide tube 101 is fixedly provided on the inner top surface of the slag storage chamber 10 corresponding to the waste inlet 100; the upper end opening of the waste guide tube 101 is large, and the lower end opening is small; the setting of the waste guide tube 101 guides the waste to ensure that the waste falls to the upper end of the protrusion 200 first, so as to achieve effective utilization of the protrusion 200; the upper end opening of the waste guide tube 101 is large, and the lower end opening is small, and the guidance is precise.

[0031] Preferably, a plug 30 that cooperates with the waste inlet 100 is fixedly provided at one end of the waste transfer pipe 3; the plug 30 is provided with a waste transfer channel 300; the waste transfer pipe 3 is connected with the waste inlet 100 through the waste transfer channel 300; when the waste transfer pipe 3 and the slag storage chamber 10 are connected, the plug 30 is inserted into the waste inlet 100, and the operation is simple; when the waste suction component 40 sucks the waste, the waste passes through the waste transfer pipe 3, the waste transfer channel 300 and the waste inlet 100 in turn, and enters the slag storage chamber 10; when the solid waste in the slag storage chamber 10 needs to be taken out, the plug 30 can be removed first, and then the solid waste can be poured out through the waste inlet 100, without the need to open an additional slag outlet, and the production is simple.

[0032] Preferably, the solid-liquid separation component 2 further includes a bracket 21 for supporting the protrusion 200; the bracket 21 is fixed in the water storage chamber 11; the bracket 21 is used to support the protrusion 200, which can effectively prevent the protrusion 200 from deforming.

[0033] Preferably, the waste suction component 40 is an electric fan 40 fixedly installed in the water storage chamber 11; the electric fan 40 is arranged directly opposite the filter 20; the air inlet direction of the electric fan 40 is vertical, and the air outlet direction is horizontal; the cavity wall of the water storage chamber 11 is provided with an air outlet 110; the electric fan 40 is fixedly installed in the water storage chamber 11, which can not only absorb waste, but also assist the filter 20 in solid-liquid separation and accelerate the solid-liquid separation speed; the electric fan 40 is arranged below the filter 20, and its air inlet direction is vertical, and the air outlet direction is horizontal, which has a good effect on absorbing waste; the setting of the air outlet 110 ensures the normal operation of the electric fan 40.

[0034] Preferably, the electric fan 40 includes a fan wheel 400 and a motor 401; the output shaft of the motor 401 is fixedly connected to the fan wheel 400; a transverse mounting plate 5 is fixedly arranged in the water storage chamber 11; the mounting plate 5 divides the water storage chamber 11 into a first chamber 111 and a second chamber 112 distributed up and down; a receiving groove 50 matching with the fan wheel 400 is opened on the upper surface of the mounting plate 5; a water outlet 51 is opened on the inner side of the receiving groove 50; the first chamber 111 is connected with the second chamber 112 through the water outlet 51; the motor 401 is fixedly arranged on the lower side of the mounting plate 5; a through hole 52 matching with the output shaft of the motor 401 is opened on the inner bottom surface of the receiving groove 50; a waterproof cover 6 is also fixedly arranged on the lower side of the mounting plate 5; the waterproof cover 6 covers the outside of the motor 401; The air outlet 110 is opened on the cavity wall of the second cavity 112; after the waste water passes through the filter holes on the filter screen 20, it first enters the first cavity 111. Since the air outlet direction of the impeller 400 is horizontal, the waste water will move horizontally in the direction away from the impeller 400 under the action of the impeller 400, and then enter the second cavity 112 through the water inlet 51; the water storage cavity 11 is divided into the first cavity 111 and the second cavity 112 by the mounting plate 5, the impeller 400 is arranged in the first cavity 111, and the motor 401 is arranged in the second cavity 112, which can play a waterproof role for the motor 401; the provision of the waterproof cover 6 further plays a waterproof role for the motor 401, and prevents the waste water from entering the circuit system of the motor 401 and causing damage thereto.

[0035] Preferably, it also includes a water storage drawer 7 for storing liquid waste water; the cavity wall of the second cavity 112 is provided with an inlet and outlet 113 for the water storage drawer 7 to enter and exit; there is a gap 110 between the inner top surface of the inlet and outlet 113 and the upper surface of the water storage drawer 7; the gap 110 is the air outlet 110; the waste water entering the second cavity 112 eventually falls into the water storage drawer 7, and when the waste water needs to be discharged, the water storage drawer 7 is drawn out, the waste water is poured out, and then the water storage drawer 7 is put back to collect the waste water again; the gap 110 between the inlet and outlet 113 and the water storage drawer 7 is used as the air outlet 110, which reduces the complexity of the processing.

When the waste needs to be cleaned, the waste suction device is used to suck the waste in the brewing cavity 8 into the residue storage cavity 10, so that the cleaning of the waste in the brewing cavity 8 can be completed. It is not only simple to operate, but also will not cause pollution to the desktop, the ground and other places, thereby not causing additional cleaning problems.

[0038] Preferably, the brewing machine also includes a storage tank 80 for storing solid beverage materials, a grinding assembly 81 for grinding the beverage materials, and a hot water assembly 82 for providing hot water to the brewing cavity 8; the storage tank 80 is connected to the grinding assembly 81 and is arranged above the grinding assembly 81; the grinding assembly 81 is connected to the brewing cavity 8 and is arranged above the brewing cavity 8; the brewing cavity 8 is also provided with a filter switch assembly 83; when in use, the solid beverage material in the storage tank 80 falls to the grinding assembly 81, and the grinding assembly 81 grinds the solid beverage material to form material fragments. After the material fragments fall into the brewing cavity 8, the hot water assembly 82 injects hot water into the brewing cavity 8 to start brewing. When the beverage is brewed, the filter switch assembly 83 is opened, the beverage flows out, and the waste is blocked by the filter switch assembly 83 and remains in the brewing cavity 8, and can then be sucked into the residue storage cavity 10 by the waste suction device.

[0039] It should be noted that:

[0040] 1. The material storage tank, grinding assembly, hot water assembly and filter switch assembly are all parts that can be obtained using existing technology;

[0041] Second, the filter switch assembly may include a screen disposed in the brewing chamber, a lifting assembly for driving the screen to rise and fall, and a valve disposed on the brewing chamber. The valve is disposed below the screen. During brewing, the material fragments produced by grinding first fall onto the screen, and then the screen is driven down to the lowest point by the lifting assembly. When brewing is completed, the lifting assembly drives the screen to rise, and the waste remains on the screen, and is later sucked away by the waste suction device. When the beverage needs to be released, the valve can be opened. The lifting assembly is an existing lifting assembly.
