Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the coffee machine accessories industry, specifically a coffee machine concentration control device. Background Technology

[0002] With the increasing prosperity of modern coffee culture, consumers are demanding higher and higher quality coffee. The strength of coffee is one of the key factors affecting its taste and flavor. Different people have different preferences for coffee strength; some like strong and full-bodied coffee, while others prefer a light and mild flavor.

[0003] Traditional coffee machines often result in poor concentration measurement accuracy when measuring coffee concentration after brewing, as the coffee liquid or powder has already separated into layers. This can fail to meet the demands of consumers seeking high-quality coffee, and in commercial coffee shop operations, unstable coffee concentration can negatively impact product consistency and brand image. To address these issues, there is an urgent need to develop a more precise coffee machine concentration control device. Summary of the Invention

Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

Figure 1As shown, it includes: a base box 1; a cup body limiting device 2 connected to the base box 1; a supplementary control device 3 connected to the base box 1; a drive control device 4 connected to the base box 1; and a concentration detection device 5 connected to the drive control device 4. The concentration detection device 5 includes: a multi-level detection device 6 connected to the drive control device 4 for detecting the concentration of coffee at various levels; and a stirring claw device 7 connected to the multi-level detection device 6 for ensuring thorough mixing of the coffee's internal media.

[0023] In one embodiment of the present invention:

[0024] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the cup body limiting device 2 includes: a bottom compartment 201, which is connected to the interior of the base box 1; a first driving member 202, which is connected to the interior of the bottom compartment 201; the first driving member 202 is an electric shaft seat; a transmission frame 203, which is fixedly connected to the first driving member 202; at least two fixing plates 204, which are connected to the interior of the bottom compartment 201; a first elastic member 205, which is connected to the fixing plate 204; the first elastic member 205 is an elastic telescopic rod; a linkage plate 206, which is movably connected to the base box 1 and connected to the end of the second driving member 205 away from the fixing plate 204; and a buffer pad 207, which is connected to the inner side of the linkage plate 206.

[0025] A through groove (not shown in the figure) for moving the linkage plate 206 is provided on the top side of the base box 1, and a limiting pad is provided in the middle of the linkage plates 206 on both sides. When the coffee is made and the concentration is detected and identified, the coffee cup is placed on the limiting pad in the middle of the linkage plates 206 on both sides. Then, according to the size of the coffee cup, the first driving member 202 runs and drives the transmission frame 203 to rotate. The transmission frame 203 is elliptical. When the transmission frame 203 rotates, it cooperates with the first elastic members 205 on both sides to drive the linkage plates 206 on both sides to move in opposite directions, so that the buffer pads 207 on both sides clamp the coffee cup placed in the middle and complete the limiting of the coffee cup.

[0026] In one embodiment of the present invention:

[0027] like Figure 1As shown, the supplementary control device 3 includes: a base 301 connected to a base box 1; a first liquid storage tank 302 connected to the side of the base 301 away from the base box 1; a second liquid storage tank 303 connected to the side of the base 301 away from the base box 1; a first conductive pipe 304 connected to the first liquid storage tank 302; a second conductive pipe 305 connected to the second liquid storage tank 303; and a fixed connecting pipe 306 connected to the end of the second conductive pipe 305 away from the second liquid storage tank 303.

Pumps capable of receiving control signals are installed inside both the first and second storage tanks 302 and 303, respectively. The pumps are connected to the first and second connecting pipes 304 and 305, respectively. After the coffee concentration is detected by the concentration detection device 5, it can be determined whether the coffee concentration meets the customer's required standard. Based on the comparison between the preset target concentration value and the actual detected concentration value, a control signal is generated by the set algorithm. The control signal controls the operating time of the pumps in the first and second storage tanks 302 and 303, replenishing the coffee cup with the corresponding amount of coffee liquid and purified water.

[0029] In one embodiment of the present invention:

[0030] like Figure 1 As shown, the drive control device 4 includes: a connecting frame 401 connected to the base box 1; a second drive member 402 connected to the end of the connecting frame 401 away from the base box 1; the second drive member 402 is an electric shaft seat; a positioning frame 403 connected to the second drive member 402; and a third drive member 404 connected to the end of the positioning frame 403 away from the second drive member 402; the third drive member 404 is an electric shaft seat.

[0031] When no coffee cup is placed, the multi-level detection device 6 and the stirring claw device 7 retract, the third driving component 404 can drive the concentration detection device 5 to a horizontal position, and the second driving component 402 can drive the positioning frame 403 and the concentration detection device 5 to rotate and adjust in the horizontal direction. When the coffee cup is placed, driven by the second driving component 402 and the third driving component 404, the concentration detection device 5 can be moved to a horizontal position. Figure 1 The location shown;

[0032] In this application, the second driving component 402 is not limited to an electric shaft support device, and can also be driven by a linear motor, electric cylinder, or pneumatic cylinder, etc., as long as it can realize the rotation adjustment of the positioning frame 403, and no specific limitation is made here; the third driving component 404 is not limited to an electric shaft support device, and can also be driven by a linear motor, electric cylinder, or pneumatic cylinder, etc., as long as it can realize the rotation adjustment of the concentration detection device 5, and no specific limitation is made here.

[0033] In one embodiment of the present invention:

[0034] like Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, the multi-level detection device 6 includes: a fourth driving member 601, which is connected to the third driving member 404 and communicates with the end of the first conductive tube 304 away from the first liquid storage tank 302; the fourth driving member 601 is an electrically operated multi-layer telescopic tube; an extension tube 602, which is connected to the end of the fourth driving member 601 away from the first conductive tube 304; a plurality of detection elements 603, which are connected to the extension tube 602; the detection elements 603 are infrared spectral detection generators; and a limiting frame 604, which is connected to the bottom end of the extension tube 602.

[0035] Both the fourth driving component 601 and the extension elastic tube 602 are hollow. A telescopic hose (not shown in the figure) is embedded inside the hollow tube 601 and the extension tube 602. One end of the telescopic hose is connected to the end of the first conductive tube 304 away from the first liquid storage tank 302, and the other end is fixedly connected to the inner side of the bottom end of the extension elastic tube 602. The telescopic hose can extend and retract synchronously with the fourth driving component 601 and the extension tube 602. Figure 1 In the current state, the extension tube 602 is fully extended and inserted into the bottom of the coffee cup. When replenishment is made through the first conductive tube 304, the coffee liquid can be discharged to the bottom of the coffee cup through the first conductive tube 304 and the telescopic hose. The detection element 603 is an infrared spectral detection generator. After being inserted into the coffee cup, it can perform spectral detection on each layer inside the coffee cup. By analyzing the characteristic absorption peaks, some compound components in the coffee liquid can be identified and quantified, thereby obtaining the concentration information of these components.

[0036] In one embodiment of the present invention:

[0037] like Figure 1 and Figure 4As shown, the stirring claw device 7 includes: a sleeve 701, which is fixedly connected to the extension tube 602; a plurality of second elastic elements 702, which are connected to the sleeve 701; the second elastic elements 702 are elastic hinges; a control plate 703, which is connected to the second elastic elements 702; a telescopic sleeve 704, which is connected to the sleeve 701 and sleeved on the outside of the extension tube 602; a transmission rod 705, one end of which is movably connected to the telescopic sleeve 704, and the other end of which is movably connected to the inside of the control plate 703; and a disturbance element 706, which is connected to the side of the control plate 703 away from the second elastic elements 702; the disturbance element 704 is a multi-stage electric telescopic rod.

[0038] A circular plate is provided at the bottom of the disturbance component 706, such as Figure 1 In the indicated state, the disturbance component 706 moves longitudinally reciprocatingly, which can lift and press the liquid inside the coffee cup in multiple directions, thereby achieving a uniform distribution of the liquid and medium inside the coffee cup.

[0039] In one embodiment of the present invention:

[0040] like Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, the coffee machine concentration control device further includes: a limiting frame 8, which is connected to the bottom end of the extension tube 602;

[0041] When the stirring claw device 7 is retracted, the disturbance component 706 retracts to its shortest length, and then the fourth driving component 601 drives the extension tube 602 to retract. When the extension tube 602 retracts upward to a certain length, the outer limiting frame 604 at the bottom end of the extension tube 602 abuts against the bottom side of the telescopic sleeve 704. In conjunction with the second elastic component 702 and the transmission rod 705, it can drive several control plates 703 and disturbance components 706 to converge towards the center.

[0042] The working principle of this invention is as follows: A through groove (not shown in the figure) for the movement of the linkage plate 206 is provided on the top side of the base box 1, and a limiting pad is provided in the middle of the linkage plates 206 on both sides. When the coffee is made and the concentration is detected and identified, the coffee cup is placed on the limiting pad in the middle of the linkage plates 206 on both sides. Then, according to the size of the coffee cup, the first driving member 202 runs, driving the transmission frame 203 to rotate. The transmission frame 203 is elliptical. When the transmission frame 203 rotates, it cooperates with the first elastic members 205 on both sides to drive the linkage plates 206 on both sides to move in opposite directions, so that the buffer pads 207 on both sides clamp the coffee cup placed in the middle, thus limiting the coffee cup. Coffee liquid is stored in the first liquid storage tank 302, and purified water is stored in the second liquid storage tank 303. Acceptable control signals are installed in both the first liquid storage tank 302 and the second liquid storage tank 303. The pump is connected to the first conduit 304 and the second conduit 305. After the concentration detection device 5 detects the coffee concentration, it can determine whether the coffee concentration meets the customer's required standard. Based on the comparison between the preset target concentration value and the actual detected concentration value, a control signal is generated through a set algorithm. The control signal controls the operating time of the pumps in the first and second storage tanks 302 and 303, replenishing the corresponding amount of coffee liquid and purified water into the coffee cup. When no coffee cup is placed, the multi-level detection device 6 and the stirring claw device 7 retract, and the third drive component 404 can drive the concentration detection device 5 to a horizontal position. The second drive component 402 can drive the positioning frame 403 and the concentration detection device 5 to rotate and adjust in the horizontal direction. When the coffee cup is placed, under the drive of the second drive component 402 and the third drive component 404, the concentration detection device 5 can be moved to a horizontal position. Figure 1 As shown, the second driving component 402 is not limited to an electric shaft support device; it can also be driven by a linear motor, electric cylinder, or pneumatic cylinder, etc., as long as it can realize the rotational adjustment of the positioning frame 403. No specific limitation is made here. The third driving component 404 is not limited to an electric shaft support device; it can also be driven by a linear motor, electric cylinder, or pneumatic cylinder, etc., as long as it can realize the rotational adjustment of the concentration detection device 5. No specific limitation is made here.

[0043] Both the fourth driving component 601 and the extension elastic tube 602 are hollow. A telescopic hose (not shown in the figure) is embedded inside the hollow tube 601 and the extension tube 602. One end of the telescopic hose is connected to the end of the first conductive tube 304 away from the first liquid storage tank 302, and the other end is fixedly connected to the inner side of the bottom end of the extension elastic tube 602. The telescopic hose can extend and retract synchronously with the fourth driving component 601 and the extension tube 602. Figure 1In the current state, the extension tube 602 is fully extended and inserted into the bottom of the coffee cup. When replenishment is made through the first conductive tube 304, the coffee liquid can be discharged to the bottom of the coffee cup through the first conductive tube 304 and the telescopic hose. The detection element 603 is an infrared spectral generator. After being inserted into the coffee cup, it can perform spectral detection on each layer inside the coffee cup. By analyzing the characteristic absorption peaks, some compound components in the coffee liquid can be identified and quantified, thereby obtaining the concentration information of these components. A circular plate is provided at the bottom of the disturbance element 706, such as... Figure 1 In the indicated state, the disturbance member 706 moves longitudinally back and forth, which can lift and press the liquid inside the coffee cup in multiple directions, thereby achieving a uniform distribution of the liquid and medium inside the coffee cup. When the stirring claw device 7 is stored, the disturbance member 706 retracts to its shortest length, and then the fourth driving member 601 drives the extension tube 602 to retract. When the extension tube 602 retracts upward to a certain length, the outer limiting bracket 604 at the bottom end of the extension tube 602 abuts against the bottom side of the telescopic sleeve 704. In conjunction with the second elastic member 702 and the transmission rod 705, it can drive several control plates 703 and disturbance members 706 to converge towards the center.

[0044] In summary, this equipment uses the stirring claw device 7 to pre-treat the coffee, achieving a uniform distribution of liquid and medium inside the coffee cup. Based on this, the multi-level detection device 6 performs concentration identification and analysis on each level of the coffee, expanding the sample data and accuracy of coffee concentration detection, thereby improving the ability to adjust coffee concentration.

This narrative style is merely for clarity. Those skilled in the art should consider the specification as a whole, and the technical solutions in each embodiment can also be appropriately combined to form other embodiments that can be understood by those skilled in the art.
