Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of household appliance technology, and more specifically, relates to a cocktail mixer. Background Technology
[0002] Existing cocktail machines require a power source to operate, which limits their use to environments with power supply. This prevents users from using the cocktail machine in environments without power (such as outdoors). Summary of the Invention
[0003] The present invention aims to solve at least one of the technical problems existing in the prior art or related art.
[0004] Therefore, the present invention proposes a cocktail mixing machine.
[0005] To achieve at least one of the above objectives, according to a first aspect of the present invention, a bartending machine is provided, comprising: a main body; a working part disposed on the main body for bartending; a control part disposed on the main body and electrically connected to the working part for controlling and driving the operation of the working part; and an energy storage device located on the main body and electrically connected to the control part for supplying power to the control part.
[0006] The cocktail mixer proposed in this application includes a main body and a working section, wherein the working section is located in the main body. Specifically, through the operation of the working section, various liquids can be mixed into a beverage desired by the user; that is, the working section is used for cocktail mixing.
[0007] Furthermore, the main body also includes a control unit, which is electrically connected to the working unit and used to control and drive the operation of the working unit. Understandably, the working unit can mix various liquids to create the beverage desired by the user. There are various beverage recipes, and different types of beverages use different types of liquids in different proportions. To prepare different types of beverages according to different proportions, the control unit is electrically connected to the working unit. On the one hand, the control unit controls the operation of the working unit to mix the corresponding types of liquids according to their respective proportions based on the different beverage recipes, thus obtaining different types of beverages. On the other hand, the control unit provides power to the working unit to ensure its normal operation.
[0008] Furthermore, the main body is also equipped with an energy storage device, which can store electricity. After the control unit is disconnected from the power supply, the stored energy device can drive the operation of the control unit, and then drive the operation of the working unit through the control unit.
[0009] Specifically, the energy storage device is electrically connected to the control unit and is used to supply power to the control unit. Specifically, when the control unit is disconnected from the power supply, the energy storage device drives the control unit to operate using its stored electrical energy, thereby enabling the cocktail machine to operate normally in the event of a power outage.
[0010] The cocktail machine operates under both power-on and power-off conditions as follows: When the cocktail machine is not connected to a power source, the energy storage device provides power to the control unit using its stored electricity. This power drives the control unit, which is electrically connected to the working unit. The control unit then drives the working unit and controls its operation, mixing different types of liquids according to their respective proportions to create various beverages. By incorporating a rechargeable energy storage device, the cocktail machine can operate even without a power source. This allows the control unit to operate, and in turn, the control unit to drive and control the working unit for mixing drinks. This ensures the cocktail machine continues to function normally even during power outages, enabling users to use it without a power source. This expands the cocktail machine's usage scenarios, meets diverse user needs, and improves user convenience.
[0011] The cocktail mixer according to the present invention may also have the following distinguishing technical features:
[0012] Furthermore, in the above technical solution, the energy storage device can be connected to a power source for charging.
[0013] In this technical solution, the energy storage device not only supplies power to the control unit but also connects to a power source for charging. Specifically, the energy storage device can be connected to a power source, allowing the power source to charge the energy storage device. This enables the control unit to be powered even when the cocktail machine is disconnected from the power source, facilitating user operation when the cocktail machine cannot be connected to a power source and improving user convenience.
[0014] Alternatively, the cocktail machine can be connected to mains power via a charging device, thereby charging the energy storage device.
[0015] In the above technical solution, the energy storage device further includes: at least one energy storage element, electrically connected to the control unit, for supplying power to the control unit, the energy storage element being capable of storing electricity; and a charging device, electrically connected to the energy storage element, the charging device being capable of connecting to a power source to charge the energy storage element.
[0016] In this technical solution, the energy storage device includes at least one energy storage component, which can be connected to a power source and charged by the power source. The energy storage component itself has an energy storage function, and can supply power to the control unit by storing its own energy when the cocktail machine is powered off. Specifically, the energy storage component is electrically connected to the control unit, thereby supplying power to the control unit, which in turn controls and drives the operating unit to ensure the cocktail machine can operate normally.
[0017] Furthermore, in order to enable the energy storage device to be connected to a power source for charging, a charging device is also provided in the energy storage device. Specifically, the charging device is electrically connected to the energy storage device. When the energy storage device is connected to a power source, one end of the charging device is electrically connected to the power source, and the other end is electrically connected to the energy storage device. The electrical energy provided by the power source is transferred to the energy storage device through the charging device to charge the energy storage device.
[0018] By incorporating a charging device that is electrically connected to the energy storage unit within the energy storage device, the energy storage unit can be electrically connected to the power source through the charging device. The charging device converts the electrical energy supplied by the power source into a form that the energy storage unit can receive, thereby improving the charging efficiency of the energy storage unit and ensuring that the energy storage unit can be charged safely and stably, thus enhancing the reliability of the energy storage device.
[0019] In the above technical solution, the energy storage device further includes: an installation box, located on the main body; and an installation cover, connected to the installation box, wherein the installation box and the installation cover together form an installation cavity, and the energy storage component is located inside the installation cavity.
[0020] In this technical solution, to protect and secure the energy storage device, a mounting box and a mounting cover are also provided within the energy storage device. The mounting box is located within the main body, and the mounting cover is connected to the mounting box. The mounting box and mounting cover together form a mounting cavity, within which the energy storage device is located. Specifically, the energy storage device can be connected to the mounting box to securely install it within the mounting cavity.
[0021] Furthermore, the mounting cover and the mounting box are detachably connected. When the mounting cover and the mounting box are connected, the mounting cover and the mounting box together form a mounting cavity, in which the energy storage device is installed, thereby providing a certain degree of protection for the energy storage device. When the energy storage device needs to be repaired or replaced, the user can remove the mounting cover from the mounting box to facilitate the observation and repair of the energy storage device.
[0022] By installing an installation box and a cover in the energy storage device, and installing the energy storage components inside the installation cavity formed by the installation box and cover, the energy storage components can be protected by the installation box and cover, thereby improving the reliability of the energy storage device and extending its service life.
[0023] In the above technical solution, the energy storage device further includes: a charging connector disposed on the energy storage component; the mounting box has an opening, the charging connector passes through the opening and is connected to the charging device, and the charging device can charge the energy storage component through the charging connector.
[0024] In this technical solution, the energy storage device is also equipped with a charging connector, and the energy storage device can be electrically connected to the charging device through the charging connector so that the energy storage device can be charged by the charging device.
[0025] Specifically, a charging connector is located on the energy storage device. One end of the charging connector is connected to the energy storage device, and the other end can be connected to the charging device, so that the charging device can charge the energy storage device through the charging connector.
[0026] Furthermore, in order to enable the energy storage device located in the mounting cavity to connect to the charging device via the charging connector, a corresponding opening is provided on the mounting box. The charging connector passes through the opening and connects to the charging device, so that the energy storage device can be installed in the mounting cavity and the charging connector on the energy storage device can be connected to the charging device, thereby charging the energy storage device through the charging device.
[0027] By setting a charging connector on the energy storage device that can be connected to the charging device, and setting an opening on the mounting box so that the charging connector can pass through the opening and connect to the charging device, it is possible to connect the energy storage device to the charging device while ensuring that the mounting box and mounting cover protect the energy storage device, so that the charging device can charge the energy storage device.
[0028] In the above technical solution, the energy storage device is further defined as a battery.
[0029] In this technical solution, the energy storage device can be a battery, thereby ensuring the safety and reliability of the energy storage device while enabling it to store more electrical energy.
[0030] In the above technical solution, the main body further includes: a shell; a base connected to the shell, and an energy storage device disposed on the base.
[0031] In this technical solution, the main body includes a shell and a base, wherein the shell is connected to the base, and the energy storage device is disposed on the base. By installing the energy storage device on the base, the space occupied by the energy storage device can be reduced, which is conducive to the miniaturization design of the cocktail machine.
[0032] In the above technical solution, the shell and the base together form a receiving cavity, and the energy storage device is located on the base and inside the receiving cavity.
[0033] In this technical solution, the energy storage device is housed within a cavity formed by the housing and the base. This provides further protection for the energy storage device, preventing damage from liquids and other impurities. Thus, by placing the energy storage component within the mounting cavity formed by the mounting cover and the mounting box, and then further placing the energy storage device within the cavity formed by the housing and the base, multiple layers of protection are provided to the energy storage component, thereby improving the reliability of the energy storage device and extending its service life.
[0034] In the above technical solution, the bartending machine further includes: multiple liquid storage devices, which are detachably installed on the main body. The liquid storage devices are used to hold liquids, and the working part can extract liquids from the liquid storage devices.
[0035] In this technical solution, the cocktail mixer is also equipped with multiple liquid storage devices to hold liquids, and these multiple storage devices can hold a variety of different liquids. Specifically, the liquid storage devices can hold a variety of liquids used for mixing drinks. During the mixing process, the working part can extract the liquid from the storage device containing the required liquid according to different mixing needs, and use it to mix the drink.
[0036] Furthermore, any liquid storage device is detachably mounted on the main body, so that when the liquid in the liquid storage device is depleted, the liquid storage device can be detached from the main body and the liquid in the liquid storage device can be replenished.
[0037] By installing multiple liquid storage devices that can be detachably connected to the main body in the cocktail machine, various liquids can be stored in the cocktail machine, and when needed, the corresponding liquids can be extracted from the liquid storage devices through the working part to mix the various liquids to obtain a beverage.
[0038] In the above technical solution, further, any liquid storage device is at least partially located within the receiving cavity.
[0039] In this technical solution, the main body is provided with multiple mounting holes, each corresponding to a liquid storage device. The liquid storage device can be detachably mounted to the main body through these mounting holes. When the liquid storage device is mounted to the main body, at least a portion of each liquid storage device is located within the receiving cavity of the main body, meaning at least a portion of the liquid storage device extends into the main body. This reduces the portion of the liquid storage device exposed outside the main body, reducing the space occupied by the liquid storage device, and consequently reducing the space occupied by the cocktail machine, which is beneficial for the miniaturization design of the cocktail machine.
[0040] In the above technical solution, the volume of the liquid storage device is less than or equal to 350ml.
[0041] In this technical solution, the volume of the liquid storage device is limited; specifically, the volume of any liquid storage device is less than or equal to 350ml. By limiting the volume of the liquid storage device to less than or equal to 350ml, the overall size of the cocktail machine can be reduced. This allows the cocktail machine to perform its cocktail-making function while minimizing its overall size, making it easier for users to move or carry the cocktail machine outdoors. This facilitates cocktail making in various scenarios and improves user convenience.
[0042] In the above technical solution, the cocktail mixer further includes: a cup body for mixing multiple liquids; a first pipeline assembly for connecting the cup body to any liquid storage device; and a working part including: a pump assembly located on the main body, the pump assembly being connected to the first pipeline assembly for pumping liquid from the liquid storage device into the cup body, and the pump assembly being electrically connected to the control unit.
[0043] In this technical solution, the cocktail mixer also includes a cup body capable of holding multiple liquids, which can be mixed together to obtain a beverage. The working unit can deliver liquid from any of the storage devices into the cup body, thereby mixing multiple liquids through the cup body to obtain the corresponding beverage.
[0044] Furthermore, to connect the glass body to any of the liquid storage devices, a first piping assembly is also provided in the cocktail shaker. Specifically, the first piping assembly is located in the main body and has multiple interfaces. Through these interfaces, the first piping assembly can connect to the glass body and any of the liquid storage devices. The interfaces can be opened or closed, so that when liquid from a particular liquid storage device is needed, the interface can be opened to allow the liquid from that device to be delivered to the glass body, and when that liquid is not needed, the corresponding liquid storage device can be closed.
[0045] Furthermore, the pipelines connecting the various liquid storage devices do not affect each other, so as to avoid cross-contamination between different liquids and affect the taste.
[0046] Furthermore, in order to transfer the liquid in the storage device to the cup body, a pump assembly is provided in the working part. Specifically, the pump assembly is located in the main body and connected to the first pipeline assembly. When the pump assembly is in operation, it can draw the liquid in the storage device into the first pipeline assembly and pump the liquid in the first pipeline assembly into the cup body.
[0047] Optionally, the storage device can hold base spirits, and multiple storage devices can hold different types of base spirits. Users can deliver the corresponding types of base spirits into the glass in different proportions according to the recipe of different cocktails, so that multiple base spirits can be mixed together to obtain the prepared cocktail.
[0048] By incorporating a first tubing assembly within the cocktail mixer, the glass can be connected to any liquid storage device. When a specific liquid is needed, the storage device is opened, allowing the liquid to be transferred to the glass via the first tubing assembly. Furthermore, by including a pump assembly within the cocktail mixer, liquid from the storage device can be pumped into the glass, enabling the mixing of various liquids to create different flavored drinks.
[0049] In the above technical solution, the working part further includes: a plurality of first solenoid valves, which are disposed on the first pipeline assembly. The first solenoid valves are configured one-to-one with the liquid storage devices. The first solenoid valves are used to open or close the liquid storage devices corresponding to the first solenoid valves. The first solenoid valves are electrically connected to the control unit.
[0050] In this technical solution, the working part is also equipped with multiple first solenoid valves, which are located in the first pipeline assembly and are configured one-to-one with the liquid storage devices. Each first solenoid valve can open or close the first pipeline assembly connected to the corresponding liquid storage device, thereby controlling the opening and closing of the corresponding liquid storage device. During beverage preparation, if liquid from a particular liquid storage device is needed, the corresponding first solenoid valve can be used to open that device. The pump assembly then pumps the liquid from that device into the cup. After the liquid delivery process is complete, the first solenoid valve closes the liquid storage device. In this way, multiple liquids can be pumped into the cup sequentially for beverage preparation.
[0051] Furthermore, any one of the first solenoid valves is electrically connected to the control unit, which can open or close any one of the first solenoid valves according to the beverage preparation requirements.
[0052] By setting a first solenoid valve on the first pipeline assembly that corresponds one-to-one with multiple liquid storage devices, the opening and closing of the liquid storage devices can be controlled by the first solenoid valve, so as to realize the on-demand opening and closing of the liquid storage devices and deliver the required type of liquid to the cup for beverage preparation.
[0053] In the above technical solution, the bartending machine further includes: an auxiliary material storage component for storing auxiliary materials, which can be connected to the glass body.

[0055] In the above technical solution, the cocktail machine further includes: a second pipeline assembly for connecting the glass body and the ingredient storage container; and a pump assembly connected to the second pipeline assembly for pumping the ingredients in the ingredient storage container into the glass body.
[0056] In this technical solution, a second pipeline assembly is also provided in the cocktail mixer to connect the glass body and the ingredient storage unit. Specifically, one end of the second pipeline assembly is connected to the ingredient storage unit, and the other end is connected to the glass body, so that the ingredients in the ingredient storage unit can be transported to the glass body through the second pipeline assembly.
[0057] Furthermore, the second pipeline assembly is independent of the first pipeline assembly and does not affect each other, thereby avoiding contamination of the auxiliary materials by the liquid in the liquid storage device.
[0058] Furthermore, the pump assembly is also connected to the second pipeline assembly. When the pump assembly is in operation, the pump assembly can extract the auxiliary material in the auxiliary material storage container into the second pipeline assembly and pump the auxiliary material in the second pipeline assembly into the cup body.
[0059] Specifically, users can deliver the corresponding types of base spirits from each storage device to the glass in different proportions according to the recipe of different cocktails. Then, they can choose to use auxiliary ingredients or not. If auxiliary ingredients are used, the pump is controlled to pump the auxiliary ingredients from the auxiliary ingredient storage device into the glass, so that the various base spirits and auxiliary ingredients can be mixed together to obtain a cocktail with a richer taste.
[0060] By incorporating a second piping assembly within the cocktail mixer, the glass and topping storage unit can be connected. When toppings are needed, the topping storage unit is opened, allowing the toppings to be transferred to the glass via the second piping assembly. Furthermore, by including a pump assembly within the cocktail mixer, the toppings from the storage unit can be pumped into the glass, enabling the mixing of various liquids and toppings to create drinks with richer flavors.
[0061] In the above technical solution, the working part further includes: a second solenoid valve, which is disposed in the second pipeline assembly. The second solenoid valve is electrically connected to the control part and is used to open or close the auxiliary material storage device.
[0062] In this technical solution, a second solenoid valve is also provided in the working part, and the second solenoid valve is located in the second pipeline assembly. The second solenoid valve can open or close the pipeline connected to the auxiliary material storage unit, thereby controlling the opening and closing of the auxiliary material storage unit. During the beverage preparation process, if the auxiliary materials in the auxiliary material storage unit are needed, the auxiliary material storage unit can be opened through the second solenoid valve, and then the auxiliary materials in the auxiliary material storage unit can be pumped into the cup body through the pump assembly. After the auxiliary material delivery process is completed, the auxiliary material storage unit is closed through the second solenoid valve. In this way, the required auxiliary materials can be pumped into the cup body for beverage preparation.
[0063] Furthermore, the second solenoid valve is electrically connected to the control unit, which can open or close the second solenoid valve according to the beverage preparation requirements.
[0064] By installing a second solenoid valve on the second pipeline assembly, the opening and closing of the auxiliary material storage device can be controlled by the second solenoid valve, so as to realize the opening and closing of the auxiliary material storage device as needed, and deliver the required auxiliary materials to the cup body for beverage preparation.

Detailed Implementation
[0079] To better understand the above-mentioned objectives, features, and advantages of the present invention, the present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described in these embodiments can be combined with each other.
[0080] Many specific details are set forth in the following description in order to provide a full understanding of the invention. However, the invention may also be practiced in other ways different from those described herein, and therefore the scope of protection of the invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.
[0081] The following reference Figures 1 to 3 A cocktail machine 100 is described according to some embodiments of the present invention.
[0082] Example 1:
[0083] like Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, the first aspect of the present invention provides a cocktail mixer 100, comprising: a main body 110; a working part 120 disposed on the main body 110, the working part 120 being used for cocktail mixing; a control part 130 disposed on the main body 110, the control part 130 being electrically connected to the working part 120, and being used for controlling and driving the operation of the working part 120; and an energy storage device 140 located on the main body 110, the energy storage device 140 being electrically connected to the control part 130, and being used for supplying power to the control part.
[0084] The cocktail mixer 100 proposed in this application includes a main body 110 and a working section 120, wherein the working section 120 is disposed in the main body 110. Specifically, through the operation of the working section 120, various liquids can be mixed into a beverage desired by the user; that is, the working section 120 is used for cocktail mixing.
[0085] Furthermore, the main body 110 is also equipped with a control unit 130, which is electrically connected to the working unit 120 and is used to control and drive the operation of the working unit 120. Understandably, the working unit 120 can mix various liquids to create the beverage desired by the user. There are various beverage recipes, and different types of beverages use different types of liquids, with varying proportions. To prepare different types of beverages according to different proportions, the control unit 130 is electrically connected to the working unit 120. On one hand, the control unit 130 controls the operation of the working unit 120 to mix the corresponding types of liquids according to their respective proportions based on the different beverage recipes, thus obtaining different types of beverages. On the other hand, the control unit 130 provides power to the working unit 120 so that it can operate normally.
[0086] Furthermore, the main body 110 is also provided with an energy storage device 140, which can also store electricity. After the control unit 130 is disconnected from the power supply, the stored electricity device 140 can drive the operation of the control unit 130, and then drive the operation of the working unit 120 through the control unit 130.
[0087] Specifically, the energy storage device 140 is electrically connected to the control unit 130 and is used to supply power to the control unit 130. Specifically, when the control unit 130 is disconnected from the power supply, the energy storage device 140 drives the control unit 130 to operate using its stored electrical energy, thereby enabling the cocktail machine 100 to operate normally in the event of a power outage.
[0088] The specific operating states of the cocktail mixer 100 under power connection or power failure are as follows: When the cocktail mixer 100 is not connected to the power supply, the energy storage device 140 provides power to the control unit 130 through its stored electricity to drive the operation of the control unit 130. The control unit 130 is electrically connected to the working unit 120, and thus drives the working unit 120 to operate through the control unit 130. The control unit 130 also controls the operation mode of the working unit 120 to mix the corresponding types of liquids according to their respective proportions according to the different recipes of different drinks, so as to obtain different types of drinks.
[0089] By incorporating a rechargeable energy storage device 140 into the cocktail mixer 100, the control unit 130 can be driven by the energy storage device 140 to operate even when the cocktail mixer 100 is not connected to a power source. In turn, the control unit 130 drives and controls the operation of the working unit 120 to mix drinks. This allows the cocktail mixer 100 to operate normally even when the power is off, enabling users to use the cocktail mixer 100 even without a power source. This enriches the usage scenarios of the cocktail mixer 100, meets various user needs, and improves user convenience.
[0090] Example 2:
[0091] In one specific embodiment based on any of the above embodiments, the energy storage device 140 is capable of being connected to a power source for charging.
[0092] In this embodiment, the energy storage device 140 not only supplies power to the control unit 130, but also connects to a power source for charging. Specifically, the energy storage device 140 can be connected to a power source, and when the energy storage device 140 is connected, the power source can charge the energy storage device 140. Thus, even when the cocktail machine 100 is disconnected from the power source, the charged energy storage device 140 can still supply power to the control unit 130, making it convenient for users to use the cocktail machine 100 when it cannot be connected to a power source, thereby improving user convenience.
[0093] Optionally, the cocktail machine 100 can be connected to mains power via a charging device, thereby charging the energy storage device 140.
[0094] Example 3:
[0095] like Figure 1 As shown, in a specific embodiment based on any of the above embodiments, the energy storage device 140 includes: at least one energy storage element 141, electrically connected to the control unit 130, for supplying power to the control unit 130, the energy storage element 141 being capable of storing electricity; and a charging device 142, electrically connected to the energy storage element 141, the charging device 142 being capable of being connected to a power source to charge the energy storage element 141.
[0096] In this embodiment, the energy storage device 140 includes at least one energy storage component 141, which can be connected to a power source and charged by the power source. The energy storage component 141 itself has an energy storage function; in the event of a power outage in the cocktail mixer 100, the energy storage component 141 can supply power to the control unit 130 through its own stored energy. Specifically, the energy storage component 141 is electrically connected to the control unit 130, thereby supplying power to the control unit 130, which in turn controls and drives the operating unit 120 to operate, enabling the cocktail mixer 100 to function normally.
[0097] Furthermore, in order to enable the energy storage device 141 to be connected to a power source for charging, a charging device 142 is also provided in the energy storage device 140. Specifically, the charging device 142 is electrically connected to the energy storage device 141. When the energy storage device 140 is connected to a power source, one end of the charging device 142 is electrically connected to the power source, and the other end is electrically connected to the energy storage device 141.
