Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of coffee machine technology, and more particularly to a coffee machine. Background Technology

[0002] An American coffee maker is a device used to brew coffee. It works by spraying hot water or steam onto coffee grounds to extract the coffee.

[0003] Existing American-style coffee machines incorporate a showerhead with spray nozzles to ensure hot water evenly and completely soaks the coffee grounds. The showerhead and the coffee grounds outlet sealing plate are integrated. When grinding coffee beans, the showerhead and sealing plate move synchronously and in the same direction to open the outlet. When brewing coffee, the showerhead and sealing plate return to their original positions to close the outlet. At this point, the showerhead is positioned directly above the filter screen of the coffee basket assembly, spraying hot water onto the coffee grounds to extract the coffee. However, due to the relatively large size of the showerhead, a long travel distance is required for it to move together with the sealing plate to open the outlet, resulting in the showerhead and sealing plate occupying a significant amount of internal space, further increasing the overall size of the coffee machine. Additionally, during brewing, the hot water spraying onto the coffee grounds can easily cause grounds to fly up or splash, making them adhere to the showerhead. This can lead to an unpleasant odor developing on the showerhead over long-term use, affecting the coffee brewing and extraction results. Summary of the Invention

[0037] The technical solution of the present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0038] like Figure 1 As shown, this embodiment proposes a coffee machine, which is an American-style coffee machine, but is not limited to this. Specifically, the coffee machine includes a casing 10, a water tank assembly 20, a bean hopper assembly 30, a glass 40, a coffee basket assembly 50, and a control panel 60. The glass 40 is placed on the base of the casing 10. The bean hopper assembly 30 includes a bean hopper and a bean hopper lid, and coffee beans are placed inside the bean hopper. The coffee basket assembly 50 has a filter screen to filter out coarse particles of coffee powder. After the coffee beans are ground into coffee powder, they fall into the glass 40 after being filtered through the filter screen. The water tank assembly 20 is used to heat and supply hot water to the glass 40 to brew the coffee powder and extract coffee. The control panel 60 is used to adjust the brewing and extraction process of the coffee machine, such as the grind size of the coffee beans, the amount of water, and the brewing time. The coffee machine is an existing mature product, and the various components and working processes of the coffee machine will not be described in detail.

[0039] Existing American-style coffee machines incorporate a showerhead with spray nozzles to ensure hot water evenly and completely soaks the coffee grounds. The showerhead and the coffee grounds outlet sealing plate are integrated. When grinding coffee beans, the showerhead and sealing plate move synchronously and in the same direction to open the outlet. When brewing coffee, the showerhead and sealing plate return to their original positions to close the outlet. At this point, the showerhead is positioned directly above the filter screen of the coffee basket assembly, spraying hot water onto the coffee grounds to extract the coffee. However, due to the relatively large size of the showerhead, a long travel distance is required for it to move together with the sealing plate to open the outlet, resulting in the showerhead and sealing plate occupying a significant amount of internal space, further increasing the overall size of the coffee machine. Additionally, during brewing, the hot water spraying onto the coffee grounds can easily cause grounds to fly up or splash, making them adhere to the showerhead. This can lead to an unpleasant odor developing on the showerhead over long-term use, affecting the coffee brewing and extraction results.

[0040] To solve the above problems, such as Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, the coffee machine also includes a mounting plate 1, a sealing plate 2, a shower head 3, and a drive unit 4. The mounting plate 1 is disposed inside the outer casing 10 of the coffee machine and has a water outlet 11 and a powder outlet 14. The sealing plate 2 is slidably disposed on the bottom surface of the mounting plate 1 and has a grinding position for opening the powder outlet 14 and an extraction position for blocking the powder outlet 14. The shower head 3 has multiple spray holes 320 and is detachably rotatably disposed on the bottom surface of the mounting plate 1, and has a clearance position disconnected from the water outlet 11 and an extraction position connected to the water outlet 11. The drive unit 4 is disposed on the mounting plate 1 and is drivenly connected to the sealing plate 2 and the shower head 3 respectively, so as to synchronously drive the sealing plate 2 and the shower head 3 to move closer to each other and move together to the extraction position, with the shower head 3 located directly below the sealing plate 2; or, drive the sealing plate 2 and the shower head 3 to move away from each other, so that the sealing plate 2 moves to the grinding position and the shower head 3 moves to the clearance position.

[0041] In this embodiment, the drive unit 4 synchronously drives the sealing powder plate 2 and the spray head 3, causing them to move closer together and jointly to the extraction position, or driving them further apart, so that the sealing powder plate 2 moves to the grinding position and the spray head 3 moves to the avoidance position. By controlling the spray head 3 and the sealing powder plate 2 to move in opposite directions using the same drive unit 4, the structure is simplified, the travel space of the spray head 3 and the sealing powder plate 2 is shortened, and the internal structure of the coffee machine is made compact, thereby reducing the overall size of the coffee machine. At the same time, by setting the sealing powder plate 2 and the spray head 3 as independent components, the spray head 3 can be removed from the mounting plate 1 and residual coffee powder can be cleaned in time, preventing the coffee powder from fermenting and producing odors during long-term use of the spray head 3, improving the cleanliness of the spray nozzle 320 and the coffee extraction and brewing effect.

[0042] It should be noted that when the sealing powder plate 2 moves from the extraction position towards the grinding position, the shower head 3 simultaneously rotates from the extraction position towards the avoidance position. The sealing powder plate 2 and the shower head 3 move in opposite directions (moving away from each other), and when the sealing powder plate 2 moves to the grinding position, the shower head 3 simultaneously rotates to the avoidance position. Similarly, when the sealing powder plate 2 moves from the grinding position towards the extraction position, the shower head 3 simultaneously rotates from the avoidance position towards the extraction position. The sealing powder plate 2 and the shower head 3 move in opposite directions (moving closer to each other), and when the sealing powder plate 2 moves to the extraction position, the shower head 3 simultaneously rotates to the extraction position.

[0043] like Figure 2 As shown, a water supply pipe 70 is installed on the upper surface of the mounting plate 1. The two ends of the water supply pipe 70 are connected to the water tank assembly 20 and the water outlet 11 of the mounting plate 1, respectively. Figure 4 (As shown) the connection, the water tank assembly 20 delivers hot water to the outlet 11 through the water supply pipe 70. The drive component 4 is a motor, which is small in size to achieve compact installation on the mounting plate 1.

[0044] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, a rotating shaft 12 is fixedly installed on the bottom surface of the mounting plate 1. The shower head 3 is detachably mounted on the rotating shaft 12 and can rotate around the rotating shaft 12 between the avoidance position and the extraction position. The shower head 3 can be removed from the rotating shaft 12 to clean residual coffee powder in a timely manner, preventing coffee powder from accumulating on the shower head 3 for a long time, which could lead to fermentation and off-flavors.

[0045] Specifically, the shower head 3 includes a base shell 31 and a faceplate 32. The base shell 31 includes a main shell 311 and a support arm 312. The main shell 311 has an inlet 310 that can communicate with the outlet 11. The support arm 312 extends outward from the main shell 311 and is rotatably sleeved on the rotating shaft 12. The driving component 4 is connected to the support arm 312 in a transmission manner. The faceplate 32 is fastened to the main shell 311 and has multiple spray holes 320. The faceplate 32 and the main shell 311 fasten together to form the shower head body. The driving component 4 drives the support arm 312 to rotate around the rotating shaft 12. Figure 3 The shower head rotates in the direction indicated by the curved arrow, thereby switching the shower head body between the avoidance position and the extraction position.

[0046] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the output end of the drive unit 4 is connected to a first connecting rod 5. One of the first connecting rod 5 and the support arm 312 is provided with a first sliding hole 3121, and the other of the first connecting rod 5 and the support arm 312 is provided with a first guide post 51. The first guide post 51 slides through the first sliding hole 3121. In this embodiment, the end of the support arm 312 away from the main housing 311 has the first sliding hole 3121, which is an oblong hole. One end of the first connecting rod 5 is correspondingly provided with the first guide post 51. When the first connecting rod 5 is driven to rotate by the drive unit 4, the first guide post 51 slides within the first sliding hole 3121, thereby causing the shower head body to rotate between the avoidance position and the extraction position. In other embodiments, the end of the support arm 312 away from the main housing 311 has the first guide post 51, and one end of the first connecting rod 5 is correspondingly provided with the first sliding hole 3121.

[0047] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the output end of the drive unit 4 is connected to a second connecting rod 6. One of the second connecting rod 6 and the powder sealing plate 2 is provided with a second sliding hole, and the other of the two is provided with a second guide post 21. The second guide post 21 slides through the second sliding hole. In this embodiment, one end of the second connecting rod 6 has a second sliding hole, which is an oblong hole. The powder sealing plate 2 has a second guide post 21 on the side near the second connecting rod 6. When the drive unit 4 drives the second connecting rod 6 to rotate, the second guide post 21 slides within the second sliding hole, thereby driving the shower head body along... Figure 3The direction indicated by the straight arrow moves between the grinding position and the extraction position. In other embodiments, a second guide post 21 is provided at one end of the second connecting rod 6, and a second sliding hole is provided at the end of the powder sealing sheet 2 near the second connecting rod 6.

[0048] In this embodiment, the drive component 4 is fixed to the top surface of the mounting plate 1, and the output end of the drive component 4 extends to the bottom surface of the mounting plate 1 and is connected to the first connecting rod 5 and the second connecting rod 6 respectively, so as to synchronously drive the first connecting rod 5 and the second connecting rod 6 to rotate, thereby controlling the shower head 3 and the powder sealing plate 2 to move in opposite directions simultaneously through a single drive component 4, which is easy to operate.

[0049] Furthermore, such as Figure 4 As shown, two guide plates 13 are arranged opposite each other on the bottom surface of the mounting plate 1. The guide plates 13 and the mounting plate 1 form a slide, with the two ends of the slide extending to the grinding position and the extraction position, respectively. The sealing powder sheet 2 is slidably disposed within the two slides. The slides guide and limit the movement of the sealing powder sheet 2 between the grinding position and the extraction position, thereby improving the stability of the movement of the sealing powder sheet 2.

[0050] like Figure 5 As shown, one of the main housing 311 and the faceplate 32 is provided with a latching arm 321, and the other of the main housing 311 and the faceplate 32 is provided with a latching groove 313. The latching arm 321 is engaged in the latching groove 313. The engagement between the latching arm 321 and the latching groove 313 improves the efficiency of assembling and disassembling the main housing 311 and the faceplate 32, making it easier to quickly separate the shower head 3 for cleaning, thus improving cleaning efficiency and quality.

[0051] In this embodiment, the main housing 311 is provided with two circumferentially spaced slots 313, and the cover 32 is provided with two corresponding snap-fit ​​arms 321 on its circumferential sidewall, forming two snap-fit ​​structures, which improves the assembly strength and stability of the main housing 311 and the cover 32. In other embodiments, the main housing 311 is provided with snap-fit ​​arms 321, and the cover 32 is provided with corresponding slots 313 on its circumferential sidewall. The number and position of the snap-fit ​​arms 321 and the slots 313 can be flexibly adjusted, and are not specifically limited here.

[0052] like Figure 5 As shown, when the shower head 3 is in the extraction position, the water inlet 310 on the main housing 311 is connected to the water outlet 11 on the mounting plate 1, so that hot water can flow into the cavity formed by the main housing 311 and the cover 32 through the water pipe 70, the water outlet 11 and the water inlet in sequence, and then be sprayed onto the coffee powder in the glass cup 40 through multiple spray holes 320, thereby steeping and extracting coffee.

[0053] like Figure 6As shown, a flow guide ring 322 is circumferentially arranged on the inner bottom surface of the lid 32. The circumferential sidewalls of the lid 32 and the flow guide ring 322 form a flow guide channel 3220. The water outlet 11 can communicate with the flow guide channel 3220. At least some of the spray holes 320 are located inside the flow guide ring 322. The flow guide ring 322 has multiple slits 3221 spaced apart circumferentially. The flow guide channel 3220 and the interior of the flow guide ring 322 are connected through the multiple slits 3221. Hot water flows circumferentially along the lid 32 through the flow guide channel 3220 and flows through the slits 3221 to the spray holes 320 inside the flow guide ring 322, so that the hot water is evenly distributed on the lid 32 and evenly sprayed through the spray holes 320, avoiding the hot water from concentrating in a single position and causing insufficient coffee extraction.

[0054] Furthermore, a flow-dividing rib 323 is also provided on the inner bottom surface of the cover 32, and a flow-dividing rib 323 is provided circumferentially on the outer edge of a portion of the spray hole 320 within the flow-guiding ring 322. The flow-dividing rib 323 is roughly semi-circular, concentric with the spray hole 320 and surrounding its circumferential edge. This allows the flow-dividing rib 323 to have a certain blocking effect on the water flow into the spray hole 320, preventing excessive water flow in the spray hole 320 closer to the flow-guiding channel 3220 and insufficient water flow in the spray hole 320 farther from the flow-guiding channel 3220. At the same time, the outer surface of the flow-dividing rib 323 has a certain guiding and guiding effect on the hot water, allowing sufficient hot water to flow into the spray hole 320 located at the center of the cover 32, ensuring that the spray volume of the spray holes 320 at various positions within the flow-guiding ring 322 is approximately equal, thus improving the spray uniformity of the spray holes 320.

[0055] Furthermore, the inner bottom surface of the cover 32 is a concave arc surface, that is, the inner bottom surface of the cover 32 is roughly spherical, which can guide and divert hot water, allowing hot water to flow from the edge of the cover 32 to the center under the action of gravity, further improving the spray uniformity of the spray hole 320, so that the coffee powder is fully soaked and extracted to ensure the taste of the coffee.

[0056] The above embodiments merely illustrate the basic principles and characteristics of the present invention. The present invention is not limited to the above embodiments. Various changes and modifications can be made to the present invention without departing from its spirit and scope, and all such changes and modifications fall within the scope of the present invention as claimed. The scope of protection of the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
