When the waste collection box 600 is in use, solid waste will be collected in the first collection barrel 610, and liquid waste will be collected in the second collection barrel 620 through the liquid leakage through hole 611. The two types of waste are separated, so that the solid waste is not easy to deteriorate, the time for bacteria to grow is delayed, and pollution is avoided.

[0070] In one embodiment, referring to Figure 7 The tea storage component includes at least one tea bag box tube 211, the tea bag box tube 211 has an inner cavity for storing the tea bag box 1, and one end of the tea bag box tube 211 has an output port 2111, and the output port 2111 is connected to the inner cavity; the tea bag box taking mechanism includes a moving platform 221, the moving platform 221 is close to the output port 2111, and the side of the moving platform 221 facing the tea bag box tube 211 is used to abut the tea bag box 1 at the output port 2111, and the moving platform 221 is provided with a material discharge position 2211; wherein, when the moving platform 221 moves to the material discharge position 2211 and faces the output port 2111, the material discharge position 2211 is used to receive the tea bag box 1 dropped from the output port 2111.

[0071] The tea bag box 1 is stored in the inner cavity of the tea bag box tube 211, one end of the tea bag box tube 211 has an output port 2111 connected to the inner cavity, the movable platform 221 is close to the output port 2111, and one side of the movable platform 221 facing the tea bag box tube 211 is used to abut the tea bag box 1 at the output port 2111, when the movable platform 221 moves to the unloading position 2211 and faces the output port 2111, the tea bag box 1 at the output port 2111 falls into the unloading position 2211 under the action of gravity, and the movable platform 221 then moves the tea bag box 1 to the blanking station for blanking, and the side of the movable platform 221 abuts against the tea bag box 1 at the output port 2111 to prevent it from falling further. Therefore, the mobile platform 221 receives the tea bag box 1 dropped from the tea bag box tube 211 through the unloading position 2211, and then moves it to the unloading station. The overall structure is simple, and no complex structures such as clamps or manipulators are used to clamp the tea bag box 1, thereby improving the stability of the mechanism operation. Specifically, the mobile platform 221 of this embodiment is a turntable.

[0073] During the rotation of the mobile platform 221, the receiving seat 223 moves relative to the tea bag box tube 211. When the receiving groove is directly opposite to the output port 2111 of the tea bag box tube 211, the tea bag box 1 at the output port 2111 falls into the receiving groove. The mobile platform 221 then rotates to the blanking station to drop the tea bag box 1. The tea bag box 1 is carried by the receiving groove of the receiving seat 223. The mobile platform 221 is then driven to rotate by the first driving member 222 to realize the movement of the tea bag box 1. The structure is simple and the stability is high. Specifically, the first driving member 222 can be a motor or a steering gear. After the tea bag box 1 at the output port 2111 falls into the receiving groove, the tea bag box 1 is supported by the abutment portion 2232 to avoid falling out of the blanking port 2231. When the mobile platform 221 rotates to the receiving seat 223 at the blanking station, the tea bag box 1 is dropped out of the blanking port 2231 by manual or tea bag box dropping mechanism, and the next step of processing is performed.

[0074] Specifically, continue to refer to Figure 7There are multiple embodiments of the detachable connection between the movable platform 221 and the receiving groove. Optionally, the movable platform 221 has sliding grooves on the two inner walls facing the receiving seat 223, and the receiving seat 223 has sliding bars on both sides facing the two inner walls. The sliding bars can move along the sliding grooves to make the receiving seat 223 embedded in or away from the opening. The receiving seat 223 can be disassembled and assembled with the movable platform 221, and the disassembly and assembly process is convenient and fast. The receiving groove is easy to get dirty when receiving the tea bag box 1, and convenient disassembly and assembly is conducive to cleaning the receiving seat 223. Furthermore, elastic hooks are provided on both sides of the receiving seat 223, and the two inner walls of the movable platform 221 have grooves recessed away from the receiving seat 223. When the slide bar moves along the groove until the elastic hook is opposite to the groove, the elastic hook is buckled into the groove under the action of elastic force, thereby realizing the relative fixation of the receiving seat 223 and the movable platform 221, and preventing the receiving seat 223 from falling off during the rotation of the movable platform 221. The groove penetrates the inner wall of the movable platform 221, so that the elastic hook is exposed in the groove. When the receiving seat 223 needs to be disassembled, the elastic hook can be pressed, and then the receiving seat 223 can be moved out along the groove to be separated from the movable platform 221. Furthermore, the two inner walls of the movable platform 221 are provided with limiting grooves which are recessed away from the receiving seat 223, and the two limiting grooves are located at the outer peripheral edge of the movable platform 221. Limiting parts are provided on both sides of the receiving seat 223, and the opposite ends of the two limiting parts are bent toward the tea bag box tube 211. When the receiving seat 223 is embedded in the opening, the two limiting parts are respectively embedded in the two limiting grooves to prevent the receiving seat 223 from shaking left and right after being embedded in the opening.

[0075] In addition, the mobile platform 221 is circular, and a connecting member is provided at the center of the circle. The output shaft of the first driving member 222 is connected to the connecting member, and the first driving member 222 drives the connecting member to drive the mobile platform 221 to rotate around the center of the circle. The side of the mobile platform 221 facing the tea bag box tube 211 is used to abut the tea bag box 1 at the output port 2111. There is a gap between the side of the mobile platform 221 and one end of the tea bag box tube 211, and the gap is smaller than the thickness of the tea bag box 1. The gap can prevent the mobile platform 221 from scratching the tea bag box tube 211 during the rotation process, thereby hindering the rotation of the mobile platform 221. The side of the mobile platform 221 facing the tea bag box tube 211 abuts the tea bag box 1 at the output port 2111 during the rotation process, which can prevent the tea bag box 1 from falling out of the inner cavity. At the same time, the gap is smaller than the thickness of the tea bag box 1, which can prevent the tea bag box 1 from being dragged out of the gap. There are multiple tea bag box tubes 211, which are arranged at intervals along the outer periphery of the mobile platform 221. Different types of tea bag boxes 1, such as green tea, black tea, etc., can be stored in different tea bag box tubes 211. According to the needs, the first driving member 222 drives the mobile platform 221 to rotate to the corresponding type of tea bag box tube 211, and the tea bag box 1 is moved to the blanking station. The other end of the tea bag box tube 211 has an input port 2112, which is connected to the inner cavity. The input port 2112 is used to add tea bag boxes 1 into the inner cavity. When the number of tea bag boxes 1 in the tea bag box tube 211 is insufficient, the tea bag boxes 1 are added to the inner cavity through the input port 2112. The tea bag box tube 211 can be placed vertically or tilted, with the output port 2111 facing downward. The tea bag boxes 1 move to the output port 2111 one by one under the action of gravity, and the replenishment stops when they are stacked to the input port 2112.

[0076] In one embodiment, referring to Figure 8 The tea bag dropping mechanism includes a second mounting seat 231, a piercing member 232 and a lifting assembly 233. The second mounting seat 231 is mounted on the frame; the piercing member 232 has a piercing portion; the lifting assembly 233 is mounted on the second mounting seat 231 and connected to the piercing member 232. The lifting assembly 233 is used to drive the piercing member 232 to rise and fall so that the piercing portion pierces the tea bag box 1.

[0077] In a specific implementation, the lifting assembly 233 includes a second driving member 2331 and a first transmission member 2332, wherein the second driving member 2331 is in transmission connection with the first transmission member 2332, and the first transmission member 2332 is connected with the piercing member 232, and the second driving member 2331 is used to drive the first transmission member 2332 to descend and then drive the piercing member 232 to pierce from the top to the bottom of the tea bag box 1. The piercing member 232 is arranged on the upper side of the tea bag box 1, and the piercing member 232 pierces the tea bag box 1 from top to bottom, so that the tea bag can fall directly, and the tea bag will not be blocked by the piercing member 232 during the falling process.

[0078] Further, continue to refer to Figure 8 , a blocking member 234 is also installed on the second mounting seat 231. The blocking member 234 is arranged adjacent to the piercing member 232. The blocking member 234 is used to block the tea bag box 1 when the piercing member 232 rises so that the piercing member 232 is separated from the tea bag box 1. Since the tea bag box 1 is still connected to the piercing member 232 when the piercing member 232 pierces the sealing film 12 of the tea bag box 1, the tea bag box 1 will move with the piercing member 232. Therefore, in order to ensure that the tea bag box 1 is separated from the piercing member 232, the blocking member 234 is installed on the second mounting seat 231. The blocking member 234 is adjacent to the piercing member 232, so that the blocking member 234 will not block the piercing member 232 during the lifting process of the piercing member 232. Moreover, after the piercing member 232 descends and pierces the tea bag box 1, it resets and rises, and the tea bag box 1 rises together with the piercing member 232. During the rising process, the tea bag box 1 is blocked by the blocking member 234 adjacent to the piercing member 232, and the blocking member 234 does not block the piercing member 232. Therefore, the piercing member 232 can rise and reset, while the tea bag box 1 is blocked by the blocking member 234 and falls. Specifically, the blocking member 234 includes a connecting portion 2341 and an annular portion 2342 connected to the connecting portion 2341, the connecting portion 2341 is installed on the second mounting seat 231, and the annular portion 2342 surrounds the outer periphery of the piercing member 232. The connecting portion 2341 includes two upright rods, which stand upright on the second mounting seat 231. The annular portion 2342 is in a semi-closed annular shape, and the two ends of the non-closed portion of the annular portion 2342 are connected to the two upright rods, so that the annular portion 2342 can be in a surrounding shape to surround the piercing member 232. Therefore, when the blocking member 234 blocks the tea bag box 1, it can block the entire edge of the top surface of the tea bag box 1, increasing the contact area between the blocking member 234 and the tea bag box 1 when blocking, so as to increase the blocking force and thus improve the success rate of blocking.

[0079] In this embodiment, continue to refer to Figure 8 , the first transmission member 2332 includes a driving rod 23321, a guiding rod 23322 and a connecting block 23323. One end of the driving rod 23321 is connected to the second driving member 2331, and the other end is connected to the connecting block 23323. One end of the guiding rod 23322 is connected to the connecting block 23323, and the other end passes through the second mounting seat 231. The connecting block 23323 partially protrudes from the outer contour of the second mounting seat 231. The puncturing member 232 is mounted on the part of the connecting block 23323 that protrudes from the outer contour of the second mounting seat 231. The connecting block 23323 includes a first connecting block 233231 for connecting the second driving member 2331 and a second connecting block 233232 for connecting the puncturing member 232. The first connecting block 233231 is connected to or integrally formed with the second connecting block 233232. The second connecting block 233232 is parallel to the second mounting seat 231. A part of the second connecting block 233232 overlaps with the second mounting seat 231 in the vertical projection direction, and the other part extends beyond the projection of the second mounting seat 231 in the vertical direction. Simply put, the installation position of the puncturing member 232 is extended by using the second connecting block 233232, so that the puncturing member 232 does not overlap with the second mounting seat 231 in the vertical projection direction, so that the space below the puncturing member 232 is completely cleared, and the second mounting seat 231 will not block the falling of the tea bag box 1. In addition, the guiding rod 23322 is inserted into the second mounting seat 231. The guiding rod 23322, the connecting block 23323 and the puncturing member 232 as a whole are in an inverted "U" shape. When the puncturing member 232 moves up and down, it follows the movement of the puncturing member 232, so as to guide the up and down movement of the puncturing member 232, improve the stability of the movement of the puncturing member 232, and prevent deviation. The second driving member 2331 is a cylinder. The cylinder includes a cylinder body and an output shaft connected to the cylinder body. The output end of the output shaft is fixed to the connecting block 23323. The output shaft of the cylinder is fixed to the first connecting block 233231. When the cylinder is pushed out, the puncturing member 232 can be driven. In other embodiments, the second driving member 2331 may also be an electric cylinder, a motor or other power sources.

[0080] In this embodiment, the piercing member 232 is a cylinder, one end of which is connected to the connecting block 23323, and the piercing portion is formed at the end of the other end of the cylinder, and the outer contour of the cylinder is slightly smaller than the outer contour of the tea bag box 1. The piercing member 232 is set as a cylinder, and the outer contour of the cylinder is slightly smaller than the outer contour of the tea bag box 1, so that the contact area with the tea bag box 1 can be increased as much as possible, and the entire sealing film 12 of the tea bag box 1 can be directly pierced during piercing, avoiding the situation where only a small hole is pierced, and reducing the situation where the tea bag box 1 and the piercing member 232 are connected together. Specifically, the piercing portion includes at least one cone, and the cone gradually narrows to form a tip for piercing the tea bag box 1. The piercing portion is configured as a cone with a pointed end. During the descent of the piercing member 232, a piercing process from point to surface can be formed. First, the pointed end pierces a hole in the sealing film 12, causing the sealing film 12 to lose tension. As the piercing member 232 further descends, the contact area between the circumference of the cone and the sealing film 12 gradually increases, thereby starting from the hole and piercing the entire sealing film 12.

[0081] In addition, the tea bag dropping mechanism also includes at least one toggle switch for connecting to the controller, the toggle switch is installed on the second mounting seat 231, the toggle switch includes a toggle piece, and the connecting block 23323 is provided with a toggle part, and the toggle part is used to toggle the toggle piece during the lifting stroke of the connecting block 23323. The controller can be a main control that controls the operation of the entire shared tea drinking device, or it can be a control component of the next tea making process, which is not limited here. The toggle part is arranged on one side of the connecting block 23323, and the toggle switch is uprightly installed on the second mounting seat 231, adjacent to the connecting block 23323. The toggle part protrudes from the entire connecting block 23323, so that the toggle part can toggle the toggle piece of the toggle switch during the lifting movement of the piercing member 232. It should be noted that the number of the toggle switches can be multiple, which is not limited here.

[0082] In one embodiment, referring to Fig. 9The tea bag box dropping mechanism includes: a toggle 241 and a rotating assembly 242; the rotating assembly 242 is mounted on the frame and connected to the toggle 241, and the rotating assembly 242 is used to drive the toggle 241 to rotate so as to toggle the tea bag box 1 to flip and fall. By implementing this embodiment, the rotating assembly 242 drives the toggle 241 to rotate, and the toggle 241 toggle the tea bag box 1, and the tea bag box 1 follows the rotation of the toggle 241 until the tea bag box 1 flips and falls. There is no need to set a linear stroke for the manipulator to move, and it is only necessary to rotate the toggle 241 at the corresponding position of the tea bag box 1. Compared with the linear stroke, the flip stroke occupies less space, thereby optimizing the internal space of the machine, reducing the volume of the whole machine, and lowering the cost.

[0083] In a specific implementation, the toggle member 241 includes a receiving portion 2411, a bearing portion 2412 and a connecting portion 2413, wherein the connecting portion 2413 is connected to the rotating assembly 242, the receiving portion 2411 is connected to the connecting portion 2413, the receiving portion 2411 is enclosed to form a hollow area, the bearing portion 2412 is connected to the connecting portion 2413 and extends to the vertical projection of the hollow area, wherein when the toggle member 241 rotates, the bearing portion 2412 carries the tea bag box 1, the tea bag box 1 is accommodated in the receiving portion 2411, and the tea bag box 1 rotates with the toggle member 241 until it flips and falls. During the rotation of the toggle member 241, the hollow area of ​​the receiving portion 2411 can insert the tea bag box 1, and at the same time, the bearing portion 2412 presses against the bottom of the tea bag box 1, so that the tea bag box 1 is accommodated in the hollow area. Since the accommodating portion 2411 surrounds the tea bag box 1 , the tea bag box 1 will not slip during the rotation of the toggle member 241 . After the toggle member 241 rotates a certain angle, the tea bag box 1 flips over and falls from the accommodating portion 2411 .

[0084] In this embodiment, the receiving portion 2411 is surrounded by an annular wall surface, and the inner side of the annular wall surface forms the hollow area, and the height of the annular wall surface is adapted to the height of the tea bag box 1. In order to prevent the tea bag box 1 from sliding off the receiving portion 2411 before flipping, the receiving portion 2411 needs to have a certain height. Specifically, the height of the annular wall surface surrounding the receiving portion 2411 can be set to be adapted to the height of the tea bag box 1, that is, the height is equal, or the height of the annular wall surface is slightly higher than the height of the tea bag box 1. As a result, during the rotation of the toggle member 241, the tea bag box 1 can only swing on the inner side of the annular wall surface and will not slide out, thereby preventing the tea bag box 1 from falling into other areas and ensuring that the tea bag box 1 falls into the designated area after flipping. Further, the bearing portion 2412 is plate-shaped. The plate-shaped carrying plate has a larger contact area with the bottom of the tea bag box 1, which prevents the tea bag box 1 from falling out of the accommodating portion 2411, and the plate-shaped surface is flatter and the load-bearing is more stable.

[0085] Further, continue to refer to Fig. 9 The connecting portion 2413 includes a rotating shaft 24131 and a connecting arm 24132, wherein the connecting arm 24132 is connected to the circumference of the rotating shaft 24131, and the end of the rotating shaft 24131 is connected to the rotating assembly 242. The connecting arm 24132 is connected to the outer periphery of the accommodating portion 2411. The rotating assembly 242 includes a third driving member 2421, a mounting female seat 2422, and a mounting sub-seat 2423, wherein the third driving member 2421 is mounted on the mounting female seat 2422, wherein the third driving member 2421 is rotatably mounted to one end of the rotating shaft 24131, and the other end of the rotating shaft 24131 is rotatably mounted to the mounting sub-seat 2423. In order to ensure the stability of the rotation of the toggle member 241, a mounting female seat 2422 and a mounting sub-seat 2423 are provided to mount the rotating shaft 24131, thereby preventing the toggle member 241 from shaking or deflecting during the rotation process, thereby improving reliability. Specifically, the third driving member 2421 is a motor, and the output shaft of the motor is connected to one end of the rotating shaft 24131. The motor is installed in the mounting female seat 2422. Of course, it can be understood that the third driving member 2421 can also be a power source that can provide rotational power.

[0086] In addition, a toggle switch for connecting to a controller is installed on the mounting base 2422 and / or the mounting sub-base 2423, and the toggle switch includes a toggle piece, and the toggle piece is at least partially arranged on the rotation stroke of the connecting arm 24132, and the connecting arm 24132 can rotate to toggle the toggle piece. The connecting arm 24132 is in the shape of a plate, and the toggle switch is vertically arranged with the mounting base 2422, so that the toggle piece of the toggle switch can fall into the rotation stroke of the connecting arm 24132. Thus, during the movement of the toggle member 241, the connecting arm 24132 can toggle to the toggle piece. It should be noted that the controller can be the main control that controls the operation of the entire shared tea drinking device, or it can be the control component of the next tea making workflow, which is not limited here.

[0087] Reference Fig.10 The shared tea drinking device further comprises a mounting plate 150, the mounting plate 150 comprises a first surface 151 and a second surface 152 opposite to the first surface 151, the tea bag box taking mechanism is mounted on the first surface 151, the tea bag box dropping mechanism is mounted on the second surface 152, and a through hole 153 is further provided on the mounting plate 150, the toggle member 241 rotates through the through hole 153 to toggle the tea bag box 1 on the tea bag box taking mechanism to flip and drop. Specifically, the tea bag box dropping mechanism and the tea bag box taking mechanism are respectively mounted on two sides of the mounting plate 150, and the movement coordination between the two is achieved by opening a through hole 153 on the mounting plate 150. The tea bag box taking mechanism places the tea bag box 1 above the through hole 153, and the toggle member 241 located below the mounting plate 150 rotates to insert the tea bag box 1 into the accommodating portion 2411 through the through hole 153. As the toggle member 241 continues to rotate, the tea cup 2 box flips and falls from the accommodating portion 2411. The tea bag box dropping mechanism also includes a flip channel cover 243, which is mounted on the first surface 151 and covers the through hole 153. The flip channel cover 243 includes an inlet for the toggle member 241 to enter, an outlet for the tea bag box 1 to fall, and a channel matching the flip stroke of the toggle member 241, and the inlet, the outlet, and the channel are connected to each other. Since the rotation speed of the toggle member 241 is difficult to control, when the toggle member 241 rotates at a high speed, due to inertia, when the toggle member 241 rotates to be perpendicular to the mounting plate 150, the tea bag box 1 will fly out of the accommodating portion 2411 in the horizontal direction. Therefore, it is necessary to set the turning channel cover 243 on the mounting plate 150 to prevent the tea bag box 1 from flying out in the horizontal direction under the action of inertia, so that the tea bag box 1 can only move in the turning channel, ensuring that the tea bag box 1 can fall into the designated area.

[0088] In one embodiment, referring to Fig.11 The tea-making mechanism includes: a container body 310 and a flip assembly 320, the container body 310 includes a side wall formed by a closed connection and a bottom wall sealing one side of the side wall, so that the side wall and the bottom wall are closed to form a receiving cavity with an opening; the flip assembly 320 is connected to the container body 310, and the flip assembly 320 is used to flip the container body 310 to make the tea bag fall out of the receiving cavity.

[0089] By arranging the flip assembly 320 on the tea-making mechanism and connecting the flip assembly 320 to the container body 310, after the tea bag or tea leaves placed in the container body 310 are cooked, the flip assembly 320 is activated to flip the receiving cavity with the opening facing downward, so that the tea bag or tea leaves mixed with the tea can slide down from the receiving cavity along the side wall of the container body 310 under the action of gravity, and the broken pieces can also flow out with the tea. Therefore, when pouring out the tea, the broken pieces can also be cleaned up, and the problem of accumulated broken pieces will not occur when the tea-making mechanism is reused.

[0090] Specifically, the flip assembly 320 includes: a first rotating shaft 321, a flip motor 322, a second rotating shaft 323 and a first bracket 324, wherein one end of the first rotating shaft 321 is fixedly connected to the side wall; the flip motor 322 is in transmission connection with the first rotating shaft 321 to drive the first rotating shaft 321 to rotate; the second rotating shaft 323 is symmetrically arranged with the first rotating shaft 321 relative to the container body 310, one end of the second rotating shaft 323 passes through the side wall and is fixedly connected to the side wall; the first bracket 324 is in rotation connection with the second rotating shaft 323; wherein the flip motor 322 is used to drive the container body 310 to rotate around the first rotating shaft 321 and the second rotating shaft 323 to flip the container body 310. By implementing this embodiment, the accommodating chamber can be mounted on two rotating shafts, the rotation of the accommodating chamber can be smoother, and the load of the flip motor 322 can be reduced by the bracket bearing part of the gravity of the container body 310, so as to extend the service life of the flip motor 322. The second rotating shaft 323 is hollow, and the other end of the second rotating shaft 323 is used to connect with the tea pouring mechanism to drain water through the second rotating shaft 323. By setting the second rotating shaft 323 to be hollow, the cost of adding a water inlet pipe can be reduced, which helps to save the cost of the entire tea brewing mechanism. Furthermore, the second rotating shaft 323 passes through one end of the side wall and extends to the side of the accommodating cavity close to the bottom wall, thereby reducing splashing when water is inlet.

[0091] In addition, the tea-making mechanism further includes a water level sensor, which includes a probe, and the water level sensor is installed on the side wall, and the probe extends to the side of the accommodating cavity close to the bottom wall. In this embodiment, by providing a water level sensor, the water level and water temperature in the container body 310 can be monitored to prevent heating when there is no water, thereby causing dry burning and damaging the tea-making mechanism. In addition, by monitoring the temperature, the heating component can be turned off after the water is heated to boiling to save energy.

[0092] In one embodiment, referring to Fig.12 The shared tea drinking device further includes a steam exhaust mechanism 900, which is used to extract the steam generated by the tea brewing mechanism when brewing tea, and includes an exhaust hood 910 and an exhaust pipe 920.

The exhaust pipe 920 is provided with a bending portion bent toward the external ground, so that the other end of the exhaust pipe 920 faces the external ground, thereby preventing foreign matter from being affected by gravity and entering the shared tea drinking device along the exhaust pipe 920.

[0094] In this embodiment, continue to refer to Fig.12 The steam exhaust mechanism 900 also includes a negative pressure component 930, which is connected to the exhaust hood 910 and the exhaust pipe 920. The negative pressure component 930 is used to generate a negative pressure airflow so that the steam in the exhaust hood 910 is gathered toward the negative pressure component 930, and is accelerated by the negative pressure component 930 and discharged through the exhaust pipe 920. Specifically, the negative pressure component 930 can extract the steam in the exhaust hood 910 and give the steam a certain acceleration, thereby accelerating the discharge of the steam. Therefore, the negative pressure component 930 is provided to further exhaust the steam. Among them, a feed port is also provided at one end of the exhaust hood 910 away from the tea-making mechanism. Specifically, when the tea-making mechanism brews tea, the tea bags and beverage bags that need to be used can fall into the tea-making mechanism through the feed port, which has a simple structure and is practical and convenient.

[0095] In one embodiment, referring to Figure 13-1 and Figure 13-3The tea-injection mechanism includes: a water injection pipe 410, a motor 420, a positioning mechanism 430 and a guide pipe 440. The water injection pipe 410 is a hollow structure, and a spiral guide groove 411 is provided on its outer surface.

[0096] The motor 420 is used to drive the water injection pipe 410 to move relative to the motor 420 through the nut thereof and the spiral guide groove 411 on the outer surface of the water injection pipe 410, so as to drive the water injection pipe 410 to move and pierce the cup cover 22, and the beverage can be smoothly drained into the cup through the water injection pipe 410, thereby enriching the function of the beverage delivery device, and there is no need to manually pierce the cup cover 22, which is convenient to use, and has a simple overall structure, a clever design, and a small space occupation. Specifically, taking the delivery of tea as an example, the water injection pipe 410 can pierce the cup cover 22 of the teacup 2 under the drive of the motor 420, and smoothly drain the tea into the teacup 2, which has a simple structure and a clever design.

[0097] In this embodiment, continue to refer to Figure 13-1 The positioning mechanism 430 includes a positioning block 431 fixedly connected to the water injection pipe 410 and a guide base 432 for positioning and guiding the movement of the positioning block 431, and the motor 420 is mounted on the guide base 432. The positioning block 431 is fixedly connected to the water injection pipe 410 and is positioned and guided by the guide base 432, which can prevent the water injection pipe 410 from rotating with the nut of the motor 420 during the operation of the motor 420, so as to realize the movement of the water injection pipe 410 relative to the motor 420, that is, the movement forward and backward relative to the motor 420, so as to pierce the cup cover 22 of the teacup 2.

[0098] Specifically, refer to Figure 13-2The guide base 432 is provided with a guide groove 4321, and the guide groove 4321 is arranged along the length direction of the guide base 432. The positioning block 431 is provided with a protrusion 4311, and the protrusion 4311 is clamped in the guide groove 4321. When the motor 420 drives the water injection pipe 410 to move relative to the motor 420 through the cooperation of its nut and the spiral guide groove 411 of the water injection pipe 410, the protrusion 4311 of the positioning block 431 moves in the guide groove 4321.
