Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of tea cabinets, and more specifically, to a combined intelligent tea cabinet. Background Art

[0002] As urban residents' demand for tea gradually increases, suppliers and tea houses are also trying to meet public demand and continuously improve the quality of tea. In order to ensure that the tea can maintain a high quality for a long time, the temperature and humidity need to be properly controlled during the storage process to ensure that the tea does not easily become moldy or deteriorate. Therefore, some electronically controlled tea cabinets have appeared on the market, which are convenient for storing large amounts of tea for a long time.

[0003] There are many types of tea storage cabinets, but most of them are large in size, have high prices for complete functions, and are troublesome to replace and repair when damaged. In general, families or companies do not store much tea. If tea blocks or tea cakes are used to make tea, it is not a good storage method to put them in the refrigerator or cabinet after each use. It is completely unnecessary to buy a tea cabinet to store tea. Therefore, there is a lack of suitable methods for storing small amounts of tea. In addition, for tea houses, due to the large number of types of tea to be stored, it is impossible to quickly find the specified tea in the tea cabinet every time. Moreover, when it is necessary to know which tea is consumed most, it can only be based on vague memory, which tea is taken out more frequently, and it is impossible to determine which specific tea is in greatest demand.

[0030] Example

[0031] See also Figure 1 and Figure 2 A combined intelligent tea cabinet is suitable for storage at home or in a small tea house, comprising: a plurality of drawers 1, a plurality of monitoring mechanisms 2 and a base bracket 3, wherein every two monitoring mechanisms 2 are respectively fixed on two opposite outer sides of the drawer 1 and are arranged diagonally, and adjacent monitoring mechanisms 2 can be correspondingly engaged and disassembled, and adjacent drawers 1 are stacked and fixed to each other through the monitoring mechanisms 2 and fixed to the base bracket 3. The monitoring mechanisms 2 are arranged diagonally to make it easier to align and stack the drawers during the stacking process to avoid stacking misalignment.

[0032] Drawer 1 is made of corrugated cardboard or plastic, which has good isolation from the influence of humidity and temperature of the outside world, and is low in cost and not easy to damage. Wood or metal materials are not used because of high cost and inconvenience in replacement. Moreover, if tea leaves are placed in it for a long time, the smell of wood or metal may affect the quality of tea.

[0033] In this embodiment, from Figure 8 It can be seen that the monitoring mechanism 2 includes a shell 201, a first clip 202, a first slot 203, a main board 209 and a battery slot 210. The shell 201 is a square shell. The first clip 202 and the first slot 203 are both arranged on the outside of the shell 201 and are respectively arranged on two side surfaces. The two side surfaces are opposite to each other. Such an arrangement is for adjacent monitoring mechanisms 2 to be connected and fixed to each other through their respective first clips 202 and first slots 203, and can also be disassembled and separated. The main board 209 and the battery slot 210 are both arranged in the shell 201. The battery slot can be used to install batteries to provide power for the main board 209 to work.

[0034] Depend on Figure 6 and Figure 7 In combination, it can be understood that the main board 209 includes a switch number sensor 207 and a temperature and humidity sensor 208, and the switch number sensor 207 and the temperature and humidity sensor 208 are arranged on the main board 209. Two through holes 104 are arranged on the side of the drawer 1, and the through holes 104 correspond to the positions of the switch number sensor 207 and the temperature and humidity sensor 208 on the main board 209 respectively. The two through holes 104 are connected with the switch number sensor 207 and the temperature and humidity sensor 208 on the main board, so that the two sensors can monitor the temperature, humidity and number of unpacking times inside the drawer 1. The switch number sensor 207 uses a photoelectric sensor or a Hall sensor for counting, so as to estimate the approximate number of tea blocks or understand which type of tea is in high demand, so that the user can adjust the amount of tea stored according to the situation. Figure 5 and Fig.10 It can be seen that when the drawer 1 is in a closed state, the opening and closing times sensor 207 and the temperature and humidity sensor 208 correspond to the approximate positions of the through hole 104 .

[0035] In this embodiment, the shell 201 is also provided with an information output terminal 204, an information input terminal 205 and a Type-C socket 211, and the information output terminal 204, the information input terminal 205 and the Type-C socket 211 are all electrically connected to the mainboard 209, and the information output terminal 204 is arranged on the same side of the shell 201 as the first buckle 202, and the information input terminal 205 is arranged on the same side of the shell 201 as the first card slot 203. This arrangement is to enable the information output terminal 204 and the information input terminal 205 to be connected correspondingly when the two monitoring mechanisms 2 are connected through the first buckle 202 and the first card slot 203, so as to achieve the desired effect. Fig. 9 The situation after connection can be clearly seen, so that when the first buckle 202 and the first slot 203 are connected, the adjacent monitoring mechanisms 2 can also transmit information through the information output terminal 204 corresponding to the information input terminal 205, and the Type-C socket 211 provides power for the monitoring mechanism 2.

[0036] A display light can be set on the monitoring mechanism 2. When the tea cabinet is in standby mode, the lights of the entire tea cabinet will display in a flowing manner. After the user selects a certain tea through the APP, the flowing lights will stop, and the display light corresponding to the target drawer 1 will flash to remind you that it has been selected.

[0037] The monitoring mechanism 2 also includes a second buckle 206, and the side of the drawer 1 is provided with a second card slot 105, which can be combined with Figure 7 and Fig.10 It is understood that the second buckle 206 is engaged and fixed with the second slot 105, so that the monitoring mechanism 2 can be fixed on the side of the drawer 1. When the drawer 1 is damaged and needs to be replaced, the monitoring mechanism 2 can be directly disassembled and installed on the side of a new drawer 1 for continued use.

[0038] Combination Figures 3 to 5 It can be seen that the drawer 1 includes a accommodating cavity 101, a push-pull box 102 and a buckle 103. The buckle 103 is fixed on one side of the push-pull box 102. An opening is provided on the accommodating cavity 101. The push-pull box 102 is embedded in the accommodating cavity 101 through the opening of the accommodating cavity 101. The push-pull box 102 can be pushed inward and extended outward in the accommodating cavity 101, and the buckle 103 can pull the push-pull box 102 outward or push it inward.

[0039] exist Fig.11 It can be understood that the base bracket 3 includes a supporting frame 301, a connecting hole 302 and a fixed slot 303, the connecting hole 302 and the fixed slot 303 are arranged on the supporting frame 301, and the monitoring mechanism 2 is matched with the fixed slot 303 to be connected and fixed, that is, the first buckle 202 on the monitoring mechanism 2 can be connected and fixed corresponding to the fixed slot 303, and the connecting hole 302 corresponds to the information output terminal 204, so that the data line can be used to pass through the connecting hole 302 and then connected to the information output terminal 204, and the data can be aggregated to a computer or other device for processing.

[0040] In addition, the RF transceiver module will be integrated in the mainboard 209 of the monitoring mechanism 2 of only one drawer 1, and the drawer 1 with RF transceiver function can only be fixedly connected to the base bracket 3, and other drawers 1 without RF transceiver function can be stacked on the drawer 1 at will. In this way, the data of each drawer 1 can be transmitted from the top drawer 1 to the bottom drawer 1 with RF transceiver function in sequence for aggregation, and finally sent to the gateway, and then processed by the cloud platform, and finally sent to the customer.

[0041] After the monitoring organization 2 obtains the data of temperature, humidity and opening and closing times of each drawer 1, it will summarize the data and connect to the gateway via Bluetooth, WiFi or small wireless network. The gateway will send the data to the cloud platform for analysis and processing, and finally transmit the data to the user's mobile phone to let the user know the situation of each drawer 1.

[0042] During use, the user can select a certain number of drawers 1 according to needs, and fix the drawer 1 with RF transceiver function on the base bracket 3 through its two diagonally arranged monitoring mechanisms 2, and other drawers 1 can be stacked with the drawer 1 fixed on the base bracket 3 in turn, and similarly fixedly connected by the adjacent monitoring mechanisms 2. At the same time, the information output terminals 204 and information input terminals 205 of the adjacent monitoring mechanisms 2 are connected to each other. When working, the temperature, humidity and opening and closing frequency data of all drawers 1 will be summarized to the bottom drawer 1 with RF transceiver function, and sent to the gateway through the drawer 1. The gateway transmits the data to the cloud platform for analysis and processing, and sends the results to the user's mobile phone. The user can know the temperature, humidity and opening and closing frequency of each drawer, so as to determine whether adjustment is needed. When the user needs to find a specified drawer 1, the monitoring mechanism 2 on the specified drawer 1 can be indirectly controlled by the mobile phone to send a prompt light signal, which is convenient for the user to find quickly.
