To meet people's higher demands, heated cup components are being added to these beverage devices. Some beverage devices incorporate a coupler at the bottom of the cup to power the heating element there. Typically, the coupler consists of multiple coaxial conductive rings of different diameters.

[0094] See Figures 1 to 13 An embodiment of this application provides a beverage device including a cup assembly 110 and a water outlet 120. The cup assembly 110 includes a cup body 111 and a first coupler 112 disposed at the bottom of the cup body 111. The first coupler 112 includes a first mating wall 112a and a plurality of first conductive elements 112b. The plurality of first conductive elements 112b are spaced apart on the first mating wall 112a. The water outlet 120 is provided with a second coupler 121. The second coupler 121 is provided with a plurality of second conductive elements 121a corresponding one-to-one with the first conductive elements 112b.

[0095] The aforementioned cup assembly 110, by placing several first conductive elements 112b on the first mating wall 112a, eliminates the need for multiple turns, thus avoiding a larger bottom wall area. For example... Figure 15a , Figure 15b and Figure 15cAs shown, several first conductive elements 112b can be disposed on a mating wall 112a.

[0096] Specifically, it can be understood that the plurality of first conductive elements 112b include a neutral conductor, a live conductor, a ground conductor, two signal conductors, and a spare conductor. The spare conductor may not be electrically connected to any of the neutral, live, ground, or signal conductors and may be in an unused state. For example, if the neutral conductor, live conductor, ground conductor, or signal conductor is damaged, the spare conductor can be used to replace it.

[0097] The cup body 111 is provided with a heating element 117 for heating the liquid inside the cup body 111. It can be understood that the first coupler 112 and the second coupler 121 are provided to energize the heating element 117 so that the heating element 117 heats up.

[0098] The first docking wall 112a is annular.

[0099] The first coupler 112 is provided with a water outlet clearance space 112c that penetrates the first coupler 112, and the second coupler 121 is also provided with a water outlet clearance space 112c that penetrates the second coupler 121. When the cup body assembly 110 is installed on the water outlet seat 120 and the second coupler 121 is assembled with the first coupler 112, the water outlet clearance space 112c on the first coupler 112 and the water outlet clearance space 112c on the second coupler 121 are connected to form a water outlet space for the liquid flowing out of the first water outlet 111a to pass through.

[0100] The first mating wall 112a is arranged around the water outlet clearance space 112c on the first coupler 112, that is, the first mating wall 112a forms the side wall of the water outlet clearance space 112c on the first coupler 112. It should be noted that the water outlet base 120 also includes a second water outlet pipe 128. When the cup assembly 110 is installed to the water outlet base 120, the second water outlet pipe 128 is inserted into the water outlet clearance space 112c on the second coupler 121. Water in the cup body 111 can flow out through the second water outlet pipe 128. The water outlet clearance space 112c is used for the liquid flowing out of the first water outlet 111a to pass through, thus serving a clearance purpose.

[0101] By providing a water outlet clearance space 112c on the first coupler 112, the liquid flowing out of the first water outlet 111a can share the same space with the first coupler 112. This eliminates the need to occupy space at the bottom of the cup assembly 110 outside the first coupler 112 to clear the liquid flowing out of the first water outlet 111a, thereby improving the utilization rate of the bottom space of the cup assembly 110 and reducing the area of ​​the bottom of the cup assembly 110.

[0102] More specifically, the first mating wall 112a is annular. It is understood that in other embodiments, the first mating wall 112a is not limited to being annular, but may also be regular or irregular in shape, such as a square ring.

[0103] The outer surface of the first mating wall 112a is provided with a plurality of conductive receiving grooves 112d arranged sequentially at intervals, and a plurality of first conductive elements 112b correspond one-to-one with the plurality of conductive receiving grooves 112d. The first conductive elements 112b are located within the corresponding conductive receiving grooves 112d. On the one hand, the conductive receiving grooves 112d facilitate the limiting and installation of the first conductive elements 112b; on the other hand, the conductive receiving grooves 112d separate the plurality of first conductive elements 112b, which can prevent short circuits.

[0104] Specifically, the first conductive element 112b is in the shape of a fan-shaped ring to facilitate electrical contact with the second conductive element 121a. It is understood that in other embodiments, the first conductive element 112b is not limited to being in the shape of a fan-shaped ring, but can also be any other regular or irregular shape.

[0105] In this embodiment of the application, the first conductive element 112b can, in addition to being able to, Figure 4 As shown, it is arranged in a fan-shaped columnar configuration around the outer side of the first docking wall 112a, and can also be in a ring shape.

[0106] Figures 16a to 19 A partial cross-sectional view of a beverage device provided in another embodiment is shown as an example.

[0107] like Figure 18a As shown, in some optional embodiments, the first docking wall 112a is annular, and a plurality of first conductive elements 112b are annular elements with different inner diameters, and the axis of the plurality of first conductive elements 112b coincides with the axis of the first docking wall 112a.

[0108] and Figures 1 to 15c Compared to the corresponding embodiments, Figures 16a to 19 In the illustrated embodiment, there is at least one first mating wall 112a. If there are multiple first mating walls 112a, "multiple" refers to two or more. The multiple first mating walls 112a have different inner diameters, and their axes coincide. The water outlet clearance space 112c on the first coupler 112 is defined by the first mating wall 112a with the smallest inner diameter among the multiple first mating walls 112a. That is, the first mating wall 112a with the smallest inner diameter forms the water outlet clearance space 112c on the first coupler 112.

[0109] For a circular ring, the axis of the first conductive element 112b is the center of the circle containing the first conductive element 112b. For a rectangular ring, the axis of the first conductive element 112b is the intersection of the two diagonals of the rectangle containing the first conductive element 112b.

[0110] Taking a ring as an example: the first docking wall 112a is in the shape of a ring, and several first conductive elements 112b are rings with the same center but different diameters, and the center of the several first conductive elements 112b coincides with the center of the circle in which the first docking wall 112a is located.

[0111] The first conductive element 112b can be installed in at least one of the following ways: a first conductive element 112b is installed on one side of a first mating wall 112a; a first conductive element 112b is installed on each of the opposite sides of a first mating wall 112a; the first coupler 112 also has slots (not shown) that are coaxial with the first mating wall 112a and spaced apart, and the first conductive element 112b is engaged or inserted into the slots.

[0112] The first conductive elements 112b on the first coupler 112 of a beverage device can be installed in different ways as described above. For example: Figure 18a As shown, there are five first conductive elements 112b and three first mating walls 112a, which are referred to as first mating wall 112a(A), first mating wall 112a(B), and first mating wall 112a(C) for distinction. First mating wall 112a(B) is located between first mating wall 112a(A) and first mating wall 112a(C). Among the three first mating walls 112a, first mating wall 112a(A) has the smallest inner diameter, and first mating wall 112a(C) has the largest inner diameter. A slot (not shown) is provided between first mating walls 112a(A) and first mating walls 112a(B). One first conductive element 112b can be installed on the inner side of first mating wall 112a(A), and one first conductive element 112b is installed on each of the opposite sides of first mating wall 112a(B). One first conductive element 112b is installed in the slot. Since the first conductive element 112b installed in the slot has no obstructions on either side, it can conduct electricity from both sides. A first conductive element 112b is installed on the inner side of the first mating wall 112a(C), thus achieving the installation of five first conductive elements 112b. It is understandable that for... Figure 18a The installation method of the annular first conductive element 112b shown is not limited to the embodiments listed above, and other embodiments are also possible.

[0113] The first conductive element 112b is ring-shaped. It is understood that in other embodiments, the first conductive element 112b is not limited to being ring-shaped, but may also be regular or irregular in shape such as square ring.

[0114] See Figure 3 The bottom wall of the cup body 111 is provided with a first outlet 111a. The ratio of the area of ​​the first outlet 111a to the bottom area of ​​the cup body 111 is 0.1 to 0.5. This allows the liquid in the cup body 111 to flow out smoothly.

[0115] The cup assembly 110 also includes a first water outlet pipe 116 disposed at the first water outlet 111a, and a first conductive element 112b is spaced apart from the first water outlet pipe 116 to reduce the risk of the first conductive element 112b getting damp.

[0116] The outlet clearance space 112c on the first coupler 112 is used to allow the passage of the first outlet pipe 116, which is connected to the first outlet 111a. The outlet clearance space 112c on the second coupler 121 is used to allow the passage of the second outlet pipe 128, which is connected to the first outlet pipe 116. The outlet clearance space 112c on the second coupler can be coaxial with the outlet clearance space 112c on the first coupler 112.

[0117] Liquid flowing out of the first outlet 111a enters the first outlet pipe 116, and then from the first outlet pipe 116 into the second outlet pipe 128. Generally, to avoid the first outlet 111a and reduce the impact of the liquid on the first conductive component 112b, the first outlet 111a is separated from the first coupler 112. However, this results in a larger bottom diameter for the cup assembly 110. In this embodiment, the outlet clearance space 112c accommodates the first outlet pipe 116 and the second outlet pipe 128, allowing the first outlet pipe 116 and the first coupler 112 to occupy the same space, which helps reduce the bottom area of ​​the cup assembly 110. The inner walls of the water outlet clearance space 112c on the first coupler 112 and the water outlet clearance space 112c on the second coupler 121 will not come into contact with the liquid. The liquid is located in the first water outlet pipe 116 and the second water outlet pipe 128. The first conductive component 112b will not be affected by the water outlet clearance space 112c on the first coupler 112.

[0118] See Figure 4 The first conductive element 112b is spaced around the outside of the first docking wall 112a to better separate the first conductive element 112b from the first water outlet pipe 116, thereby reducing the risk of the first conductive element 112b getting damp.

[0119] In some alternative embodiments, in the projection along the axis of the cup body 111, the projection of the first outlet 111a is located within the projection range of the water outlet clearance space 112c on the first coupler 112. The inner diameter of the first outlet 111a may be less than or equal to the inner diameter of the water outlet clearance space 112c on the first coupler 112, and the inner diameter of at least a portion of the first outlet pipe 116 is less than the inner diameter of the water outlet clearance space 112c on the first coupler 112, so as to pass through the water outlet clearance space 112c on the first coupler 112.

[0120] In some alternative embodiments, the water outlet clearance space 112c on the first coupler 112 is coaxially distributed with the first water outlet 111a.

[0121] In some alternative embodiments, the water outlet clearance space 112c, the first water outlet 111a, the first water outlet pipe 116 and the second water outlet pipe 128 on the first coupler 112 are coaxially distributed.

[0122] The water outlet base 120 is detachably connected to the cup body assembly 110. This facilitates the disassembly of the cup body assembly 110, enabling the cleaning of the cup body 111 within the cup body assembly 110. Furthermore, after the cup body assembly 110 is disassembled from the water outlet base 120, the power supply to the first coupler 112 is disconnected, thus avoiding the risk of a short circuit. Additionally, it also facilitates the maintenance of the cup body assembly 110 and the water outlet base 120.

[0123] See Figure 2 , Figure 5 and Figure 18a The cup body assembly 110 is provided with at least one first locking part 114, and the water outlet seat 120 is provided with at least one second locking part 123; the first locking part 114 and the second locking part 123 are locked together to achieve locking of the cup body assembly 110 and the water outlet seat 120.

[0124] For example, if there are multiple first locking parts 114, the multiple first locking parts 114 are distributed circumferentially along the cup body assembly 110. The interval between any two adjacent first locking parts 114 can be the same.

[0125] Specifically, both the first locking part 114 and the second locking part 123 are engaging parts; the first locking part 114 and the second locking part 123 are snap-fitted together. Of course, it is understood that in other embodiments, the first locking part and the second locking part are not limited to engaging parts, but can also be other lockable structures.

[0126] like Figure 5As shown, the first locking part 114 includes a first circumferential limiting part 114a and a first longitudinal limiting part 114b. The second locking part 123 includes a second circumferential limiting part 123a that matches the first circumferential limiting part 114a and a second longitudinal limiting part 123b that matches the first longitudinal limiting part 114b.

[0127] In some embodiments, the cup assembly 110 is provided with a first circumferential positioning portion 115, and the water outlet seat 120 is provided with a second circumferential positioning portion 124 that matches the first circumferential positioning portion 115. Therefore, during assembly, the cup assembly 110 and the water outlet seat 120 can be aligned relatively quickly, thereby improving the assembly speed. Furthermore, precise alignment of the first conductive element 112b with the corresponding second conductive element 121a can be achieved, avoiding the inability to achieve electrical connection or short circuit due to misalignment of the first conductive element 112b and the second conductive element 121a.

[0128] Specifically, the first circumferential positioning part 115 is a positioning slot extending circumferentially. The second circumferential positioning part 124 is a positioning element that matches the positioning slot. The second circumferential positioning part 124 can slide circumferentially within the first circumferential positioning part 115. Of course, it is understood that the structure of the first circumferential positioning part 115 and the second circumferential positioning part 124 is not limited to this, and can be any structure that can achieve positioning, such as a wedge structure, as long as it can achieve the positioning of the cup assembly 110 and the water outlet seat 120.

[0129] Figure 15b and Figure 15c A cross-sectional view of a beverage device is shown as an example, wherein point D is the assembly point of the first locking part 114 and the second locking part 123, and point E is the assembly point of the first longitudinal limiting part 114b and the second longitudinal limiting part 123b.

[0130] When assembling the water outlet base 120 with the cup body assembly 110, the first locking part 114 of the cup body assembly 110 can be aligned and contacted with the second locking part 123 on the water outlet base 120. At this time, as Figure 15b As shown, the cup body assembly 110 and the spout base 120 are not fully assembled. Next, the spout base 120 is rotated circumferentially, and / or the cup body assembly 110 is rotated circumferentially, causing the first circumferential limiting portion 114a to abut against the second circumferential limiting portion 123a to prevent further rotation of the spout base 120 and / or the cup body assembly 110. The first longitudinal limiting portion 114b abuts against the second longitudinal limiting portion 123b to restrict longitudinal relative movement between the spout base 120 and the cup body assembly 110. At this time, as... Figure 15c As shown, the cup body assembly 110 and the water outlet base 120 are assembled in place.

[0131] After the water outlet base 120 is assembled with the cup body assembly 110, the water outlet base 120 and the cup body assembly 110 are coaxial or approximately coaxial, with the longitudinal direction being understood as the axial direction. The cup body assembly 110 and the water outlet base 120 rotate in opposite directions.

[0132] After the first locking part 114 of the cup body assembly 110 aligns and contacts the second locking part 123 on the water outlet seat 120, the first circumferential positioning part 115 also aligns and contacts the second circumferential positioning part 124. When the water outlet seat 120 and / or the cup body assembly 110 rotates, the first circumferential positioning part 115 also rotates relative to the second circumferential positioning part 124. If the first circumferential positioning part 115 is a positioning slot extending circumferentially, and the second circumferential positioning part 124 is a positioning member that matches the positioning slot, then before and after the water outlet seat 120 and / or the cup body assembly 110 rotates, the positioning member is in different positions in the positioning slot.

[0133] For example, such as Figure 2 As shown, the first circumferential positioning part 115 can be disposed on the first coupler 112, such as... Figure 5 As shown, the second circumferential positioning part 124 can be disposed on the second coupler 121.

[0134] When the cup assembly 110 and the water outlet 120 are assembled in place, it also means that the first coupler 112 and the second coupler 121 are assembled in place, and the first conductive element 112b and the corresponding second conductive element 121a are precisely aligned. When the cup assembly 110 and the water outlet 120 are not assembled in place, it also means that the first coupler 112 and the second coupler 121 are not assembled in place, and it cannot be guaranteed that the first conductive element 112b and the corresponding second conductive element 121a are precisely aligned.

[0135] Understandably, for Figures 2 to 11a , Figure 11c ,as well as Figures 12 to 15c In the beverage device shown, since several first conductive elements 112b are spaced apart and mounted on the same first mating wall 112a, in order to ensure that the first conductive elements 112b are aligned with the corresponding second conductive elements 121a when the first coupler 112 and the second coupler 121 are assembled in place, a first circumferential positioning part 115 and a second circumferential positioning part 124 are required. And for... Figures 16a to 19 In the beverage device shown, since the first conductive element 112b is annular, when rotating the first coupler 112 and / or the second coupler 121, the first conductive element 112b is more easily aligned with the corresponding second conductive element 121a. Therefore, for Figure 11b , Figure 11d ,as well as Figures 16a to 19 In the beverage device embodiment shown, the first circumferential positioning part 115 and the second circumferential positioning part 124 may not be provided.

[0136] The cooperation of the first circumferential positioning part 115 and the second circumferential positioning part 124 can achieve the initial positioning of the first conductive element 112b and the corresponding second conductive element 121a. The cooperation of the first locking part 114 and the second locking part 123 can further improve the positioning accuracy of the first conductive element 112b and the corresponding second conductive element 121a.

[0137] See Figures 6 to 8 The second conductive element 121a includes a coupling contact portion 121b for electrical contact with the first conductive element 112b. The second coupler 121 includes a docking body 121d. The docking body 121d has a docking groove 121e that matches the first docking wall 112a. The bottom wall of the docking groove 121e is provided with a first through hole 121f corresponding to the second conductive element 121a. The coupling contact portion 121b is inserted into the corresponding first through hole 121f and is spaced from the side wall of the first through hole 121f, so that water flowing into the docking groove 121e and near the second conductive element 121a can fall through the first through hole 121f, avoiding water accumulation around the second conductive element 121a and thus preventing short circuits.

[0138] It is understood that the groove wall of the docking groove 121e includes not only the bottom wall, but also the inner sidewall 121g and outer sidewall of the docking groove 121e that are spaced apart. In addition to setting the first through hole 121f on the bottom wall of the docking groove 121e, it can also be set on other groove walls of the docking groove 121e.

[0139] The water outlet 120 also includes a base housing for supporting the second coupler 121. The base housing has a drain outlet that is lower than and communicates with the first through hole 121f, allowing water flowing through the first through hole 121f to exit through the drain outlet. "Exiting" can mean exiting the water outlet 120; for example, if the beverage device is placed on a table, "exiting" could mean exiting the water collection box outside the water outlet 120.

[0140] For example, such as Figure 6 , Figure 8 , Figure 9 , Figure 18c and Figure 18d As shown, the base shell includes a first shell 125 and a second shell 127 located on the bottom side of the first shell 125. The drain outlet includes a second through hole 125c located on the first shell 125 and a drain hole 127a located on the second shell 127. The second through hole 125c is lower than the first through hole 121f, and the drain hole 127a is lower than the second through hole 125c. Water flowing through the first through hole 121f can flow through the second through hole 125c to the drain hole 127a and flow out through the drain hole 127a.

[0141] The first housing 125 is provided with a coupler mounting position 125a that matches the docking body 121d. The coupler mounting position 125a is provided with a mounting position bottom wall 125b located on the bottom side of the docking body 121d. Exemplarily, a second through hole 125c is formed in the mounting position bottom wall 125b. Water flowing through the first through hole 121f can flow out through the second through hole 125c, thereby timely discharging the water flowing through the first through hole 121f.

[0142] Specifically, one second via 125c can correspond to one second conductive element 121a, or it can be configured to correspond to multiple second conductive elements 121a. See [link / reference] Figure 7 The first housing 125 shown has five second through holes 125c. Figure 7 The upper second via 125c is correspondingly disposed with two second conductive elements 121a. The lower second via 125c is correspondingly disposed with one second conductive element 121a. It is understood that in other embodiments, the arrangement of the second via 125c is not limited to this, and the second conductive elements 121a can be disposed within the second via 125c.

[0143] See Figure 6 and Figure 18d The coupler mounting position 125a is also provided with a first sealing ring 126, which is in a sealed fit with the second coupler 121. For example, the first sealing ring 126 is in a sealed fit with the outer edge of the mating body 121d of the second coupler 121. This achieves a sealed connection between the second coupler 121 and the coupler mounting position 125a, preventing water and other substances from falling in through the edge of the second coupler 121. Furthermore, Figure 6 In the illustrated embodiment, the second conductive element 121a further includes a power contact portion 121c, which is located on the bottom side of the docking body 121d and protrudes from the outer edge of the docking body 121d. The docking body 121d is sealed and docked with the coupler mounting position 125a to prevent the power contact portion 121c from getting damp.

[0144] See Figure 6 and Figure 9The water outlet base 120 also includes a second housing 127, which is located on the bottom side of the first housing 125. The bottom side of the second housing 127 is provided with a drain hole 127a and a water guide clearance hole 127b. The drain hole 127a communicates with the water guide clearance hole 127b. The water outlet base 120 also includes a second water outlet pipe 128, which is inserted into the water guide clearance hole 127b, and there is a gap between the second water outlet pipe 128 and the side wall of the water guide clearance hole 127b. Therefore, the water flowing out through the second through hole 125c can flow out sequentially through the drain hole 127a and the gap between the side wall of the second water outlet pipe 128 and the water guide clearance hole 127b. This prevents liquid from remaining in the water outlet base 120, thereby preventing damage to the components inside the water outlet base 120 due to moisture and improving the service life of the water outlet base 120.

[0145] Furthermore, the locking of the first locking part 114 and the second locking part 123 increases the connection strength between the cup body assembly 110 and the water outlet 120, thereby increasing the sealing tightness of the sealing parts in the beverage device. For example, compared to the water outlet 120 without the cup body assembly 110 installed, after the first locking part 114 and the second locking part 123 are locked, the cup body assembly 110 can increase the pressure on the water outlet 120 by its own weight after locking, and under this pressure, the sealing effect of the first sealing ring 126 can be increased.

[0146] See Figure 9 The drain hole 127a is located on the side wall of the water guide clearance hole 127b. Of course, it is understood that in other feasible embodiments, the drain hole is not limited to being located on the side wall of the clearance hole, but can be located in any other position, such that the drain hole communicates with the water guide clearance hole, and the water flow in the drain hole can flow into the water guide clearance hole.

[0147] See Figure 5 , Figure 10 and Figure 18d The water outlet base 120 includes a first housing 125, on which a coupler mounting position 125a is provided to match the docking body 121d. Figure 10 and Figure 18b As shown, the first housing 125 is provided with a third through hole 125d, and the third through hole 125d is offset from the coupler mounting position 125a. Therefore, water falling on the water outlet seat 120 and offset from the coupler mounting position 125a can flow down through the third through hole 125d. It can be understood that the water flowing down through the third through hole 125d can also flow out sequentially through the drain hole 127a and the gap between the sidewall of the second water outlet pipe 128 and the water guide clearance hole 127b.

[0148] Figure 5 and Figure 10In the illustrated embodiment, the second locking part 123 is provided on the first housing 125. The second locking part 123 covers the third through hole 125d. Thus, while water can be discharged, the exposure of the third through hole 125d is prevented, thereby preventing impurities in the environment from entering the water outlet seat 120 through the third through hole 125d.

[0149] Optionally, such as Figure 18b In the embodiment shown, the second locking part 123 may also not cover the third through hole 125d.

[0150] In this application, there are two third vias 125d and two locking parts 123, and they correspond one-to-one. It is understood that in other embodiments, the number of third vias 125d is not limited to two; it can be one or more. Similarly, in other embodiments, the third vias 125d and the locking parts 123 are not limited to a one-to-one correspondence. Specifically, the second locking part 123 may correspond to one or more third vias 125d, or it may not correspond to any of the third vias 125d.

[0151] Of course, it is understandable that in another embodiment, the third via 125d may not be covered by the second locking part 123, or may not be completely covered by the second locking part 123.

[0152] In addition, it is understandable that Figure 5 and Figure 10 In the embodiment shown, the third via 125d is a square hole. It is understood that in other embodiments, the third via 125d may be a regular or irregular shape, such as a round hole.

[0153] See Figure 1 , Figure 11a , Figure 11b and Figure 12 The cup assembly 110 also includes a heating element 117 for heating the liquid in the cup 111 and a first water outlet pipe 116. The beverage device also includes a water receiving container 160 disposed on the bottom side of the cup assembly 110. The water receiving container 160 is used to receive the liquid flowing out of the first water outlet pipe 116.

[0154] The heating element 117 is designed to reheat the liquid flowing into the cup 111, so that the liquid flowing into the receiving container has a higher temperature, in order to meet people's greater demand for water flow.

[0155] Specifically, the heating assembly 117 includes two conductive contacts 117a located at the bottom of the cup body 111, and several heating elements 117b that are in thermal contact with the bottom of the cup body 111. Each heating element 117b is electrically connected to the two conductive contacts 117a. When energized, the heating elements 117b generate heat, transferring it through the bottom wall of the cup body 111 to the liquid inside the cup body 111, thus heating the liquid. It is understood that the bottom wall of the cup body 111 is capable of heat conduction. Therefore, the heat generated by the heating elements 117b can be transferred through the bottom wall of the cup body 111 to the liquid inside the cup body 111.

[0156] Specifically, the heating element 117b is a heating plate, which is attached to the bottom wall of the cup body 111 to transfer heat to the bottom wall of the cup body 111. The heating plate is attached to the bottom wall of the cup body 111, and there is a large contact area between the heating plate and the bottom wall of the cup body 111 to better transfer heat to the liquid inside the cup body 111. Of course, it is understood that in other embodiments, the heating element is not limited to a heating plate, but can be any other component that can generate heat when electrically connected.

[0157] See Figure 12 The heating element 117b is arranged roughly evenly on the bottom wall of the cup body 111, so that the bottom wall of the cup body 111 can be heated more evenly, thereby making the liquid in the cup body 111 heated more evenly.

[0158] More specifically, Figure 12 In the illustrated embodiments, the heating elements 117b are all fan-shaped and share a common center. It is understood that in other embodiments, the shape of the heating elements 117b is not limited to a fan shape, and can also be any other regular or irregular shape.

[0159] The heating element 117 includes three heating branch circuits 117c. Each heating branch circuit 117c has three or five heating elements 117b, and the heating elements 117b in the same heating branch circuit 117c are connected in series. Specifically, Figure 12 In the diagram, three heating branch circuits 117c are selected by dashed lines. It is understood that the dashed lines are only for selecting the heating branch circuits 117c and do not actually exist on the bottom wall of the heating assembly 117 or the cup body 111.

[0160] It is understood that, in other embodiments, the number of heating elements in the heating branch is not limited to three or five, but can be one, two, four or more.

[0161] In addition, the heating element 117b is positioned away from the dry-burning element and the fuse element on the first coupler 112. The dry-burning element and the fuse element are in thermal contact with the bottom wall 111c of the cup body 111, so as to cut off the power supply of the first coupler 112 to the heating element 117 when the temperature of the bottom wall 111c is too high.

[0162] See Figure 11a and Figure 11b The second water outlet pipe 128 is movably disposed on the water outlet seat 120. The second water outlet pipe 128 is movable to switch between a first position and a second position. When the second water outlet pipe 128 is in the first position, the liquid in the cup body 111 can flow out from the first water outlet 111a. The second water outlet pipe (128) is located outside the first water outlet pipe (116). See [reference needed]. Figure 11b See also Figure 11a When the second water outlet pipe 128 is in the second position, the liquid in the cup body 111 cannot flow out from the first water outlet 111a. The beverage device also includes a sealing structure 130. The sealing structure 130 is used to achieve a sealed connection between the second water outlet pipe 128 and the first water outlet pipe 116 when the second water outlet pipe 128 is in the first position, thereby isolating the inner cavity of the second water outlet pipe 128 from external components. This prevents water vapor in the water flowing through the second water outlet pipe 128 from evaporating to external components, thus preventing external components from getting damp and improving the service life of external components.

[0163] Specifically, it can be understood that the external devices include the second conductive element 121a in the second coupler 121, all electrical components located on the second coupler 121 such as the power supply pin electrically connected to the second coupler 121, and the heating element located at the bottom of the cup body 111.

[0164] Specifically, the sealing structure 130 includes a second sealing ring 131. When the second water outlet pipe 128 is in the first position, the second sealing ring 131 is annular; the second sealing ring 131 is sealed and connected to the side wall of both the first water outlet pipe 116 and the side wall of the second water outlet pipe 128, see [reference]. Figure 11b The second sealing ring 131 is fitted onto the first water outlet pipe 116, meaning that the inner surface of the second sealing ring 131 is in a sealed fit with the outer surface of the first water outlet pipe 116, achieving a sealed connection between the second sealing ring 131 and the side wall of the first water outlet pipe 116. It is understood that in other embodiments, the sealing connection between the second sealing ring and the side wall of the first water outlet pipe is not limited to this; any method that achieves a sealed connection with the side wall of the first water outlet pipe is acceptable.

[0165] The second water outlet pipe 128 has a mating end 128a close to the first water outlet pipe 116. When the second water outlet pipe 128 is in the first position, the second sealing ring 131 seals against the mating end 128a of the second water outlet pipe 128. It can be understood that the inner diameter of the second water outlet pipe 128 is larger than the outer diameter of the first water outlet pipe 116, so that the second water outlet pipe 128 can be partially fitted onto the first water outlet pipe 116, so that the water in the first water outlet pipe 116 can flow smoothly into the second water outlet pipe 128.

[0166] The second coupler 121 includes a docking body 121d. The docking body 121d has a docking groove 121e that matches the first docking wall 112a. Figure 6 and Figure 11c As shown, the inner wall 121g of the mating groove 121e abuts against the second sealing ring 131. This further isolates the inner cavity of the second water outlet pipe 128 from external components, thus better protecting the external components.

[0167] Of course, it is understandable that in other embodiments, the method of achieving a sealed connection between the first and second water outlet pipes is not limited to this. For example, the first and second water outlet pipes can also be sealed by connecting the connecting body to the second sealing ring, and the second sealing ring to the second water outlet pipe.

[0168] Regarding the operating method of the second water outlet pipe, please refer to the application document with application number CN202021450472.4 for the driving method of the water outlet nozzle, which will not be repeated here. It is understood that in other embodiments, the method of driving the second water outlet pipe is not limited to the method described in CN202021450472.4, but can be any other method that can drive the second water outlet pipe.

[0169] See Figure 3 and Figure 13 The cup body 111 includes a side wall 111b and a bottom wall 111c. It is understood that the bottom wall 111c is sealed to the side wall 111b. The bottom wall 111c is formed of a thermally conductive material to achieve the aforementioned heat conduction function. Optionally, the side wall 111b is at least partially formed of a thermally insulating material to achieve a heat preservation function; or, the side wall 111b is formed of a transparent material to allow the user to see the interior of the cup body 111, thus achieving an aesthetic effect.

[0170] Optionally, the edge of the bottom wall 111c of the cup is provided with an annular groove 111e that matches the bottom of the side wall 111b of the cup. The bottom wall 111c and the side wall 111b of the cup body 111 are fixedly connected by edible adhesive. It is understood that, in other embodiments, the method of fixing the bottom wall 111c and the side wall 111b of the cup body 111 is not limited to this, and can be achieved by any other means.

[0171] See Figure 3 , Figures 11a to 11c ,as well as Figure 13One end of the first water outlet pipe 116 has an edge 116a that matches the side wall of the first water outlet 111a. The edge 116a is annular and overlaps with the side wall of the first water outlet 111a in a sealing manner, that is, it can overlap the bottom wall of the cup body 111 to prevent liquid in the cup body 111 from flowing out through the gap between the first water outlet pipe 116 and the first water outlet 111a. In addition, the overlap of the first water outlet pipe 116 with the side wall of the first water outlet 111a can also prevent the first water outlet pipe 116 from slipping off the first water outlet 111a.

[0172] Furthermore, the inner side of the sidewall of the first outlet 111a is provided with an overlapping groove 111d that matches the edge 116a. The overlapping groove 111d can be used to position the edge 116a, that is, to position the first outlet pipe 116, and can also prevent the first outlet pipe 116 from moving in a direction that is approximately parallel to the bottom wall 111c of the cup. It can be understood that the overlapping groove 111d is also annular.

[0173] The cup assembly 110 also includes a third sealing ring 118. The third sealing ring 118 is located in the overlapping groove 111d and is sealed and fitted with the edge 116a, thereby achieving a sealed overlap between the edge 116a and the inner wall of the overlapping groove 111d, that is, achieving a sealed overlap between the edge 116a and the side wall of the first outlet 111a.

[0174] Specifically, the cross-section of the third sealing ring 118 is L-shaped, which increases the contact area between the third sealing ring 118 and the inner surface of the overlapping groove 111d, and also increases the contact area between the third sealing ring 118 and the edge 116a, thereby improving the sealing performance between the edge 116a and the overlapping groove 111d.

[0175] Furthermore, the outer surface of the first outlet pipe 116 is provided with external threads. For example... Figure 11c As shown, the cup assembly 110 also includes a fixing member 119 for fixing the first water outlet pipe 116. The fixing member 119 has an internal thread that matches the external thread on the first water outlet pipe 116. The fixing member 119 is located on the bottom side of the cup body 111 and abuts against the bottom wall 111c of the cup body 111. That is, the fixing member 119 prevents the first water outlet pipe 116 from moving in the direction pointing towards the inner cavity of the cup body 111. Therefore, the fixing member 119 and the edge 116a work together to keep the first water outlet pipe 116 and the cup body 111 relatively fixed, so as to ensure the sealing performance between the edge 116a and the overlapping groove 111d, that is, to ensure the sealing performance between the first water outlet pipe 116 and the side wall of the first water outlet 111a.

[0176] like Figure 11cAs shown, specifically, the cup assembly 110 includes a protective housing 1110 disposed at the bottom of the cup body 111. Along the axial direction of the first outlet 111a, the fixing member 119 abuts against the protective housing 1110, and the protective housing 1110 abuts against the bottom wall 111c of the cup body 111, so as to achieve the abutment between the fixing member 119 and the bottom wall 111c of the cup body 111.

[0177] The protective housing 1110 may be part of the first coupler 112. For example, the protective housing 1110 may be a coupler bracket in the first coupler 112 that carries the first conductive element 112b, and the aforementioned docking body 121d may be part of the coupler bracket.

[0178] It is understandable that the cup assembly 110 may not have a fixing member 119 for securing the first water outlet pipe 116. For example... Figure 11b and Figure 11d The first water outlet pipe 116 shown has no fixing part 19.

[0179] See Figure 11c The cup assembly 110 also includes a filter element 1111 disposed in the inner cavity of the first water outlet pipe 116. Specifically, the filter element 1111 is disposed at one end of the first water outlet pipe 116 near the inner cavity of the cup assembly 111 to prevent filtered substances from accumulating in the first water outlet pipe 116, thereby preventing water from flowing out smoothly, and also to prevent the first water outlet pipe 116 from accumulating in the first water outlet pipe 116, which would increase the number of times the first water outlet pipe 116 needs to be cleaned and make it difficult to clean.

[0180] Optionally, the filter element 1111 is detachably mounted on the first water outlet pipe 116, thereby facilitating the cleaning of the first water outlet pipe 116 and the filter element 1111.

[0181] Specifically, the first water outlet pipe 116 includes an installation section 116c near the inner cavity of the cup body 111, and a main body section 116d located in the installation section 116c away from the inner cavity of the cup body 111; the inner diameter of the installation section 116c is larger than the inner diameter of the main body section 116d; the filter element 1111 abuts against the side wall of the installation section 116c. This prevents the filter element 1111 from moving away from the cup body 111, allowing the filter element 1111 to be more stably fixed at the end of the first water outlet pipe 116 near the inner cavity of the cup body 111.

[0182] Optionally, the side of the filter element 1111 may be entirely abutted against the side wall of the mounting section 116c, or it may be partially abutted against the side wall of the mounting section 116c.

[0183] See Figure 11cThe cup assembly 110 also includes a valve assembly 1112 disposed within the inner cavity of the first water outlet pipe 116. Specifically, the valve assembly 1112 includes a valve core 1112a, a reset member 1112b, and a valve seal 1112c. The valve core 1112a is disposed within the inner cavity of the first water outlet pipe 116 and is movable to switch between a sealed position and an open position. The valve core 1112a is movable to drive the valve seal 1112c to move. When the valve core 1112a is in the sealed position, it can move to the open position under the action of an external force, overcoming the reset force of the reset member 1112b. When the valve core 1112a is in the open position, it can return to the sealed position under the action of the reset member 1112b. When the valve core 1112a is in the sealed position, the valve seal 1112c blocks the first water outlet pipe 116, preventing water from flowing out through the first water outlet pipe 116. When the valve core 1112a is in the open position, there is a gap between the valve seal 1112c and the inner wall of the first outlet pipe 116, so that water can flow out through the first outlet pipe 116.

[0184] Specifically, a valve limiting ring 116b is provided on the inner wall of the first water outlet pipe 116. A valve sealing element 1112c is located on the side of the valve limiting ring 116b closest to the inner cavity of the cup body 111 and is fixedly mounted on the valve core 1112a. The valve core 1112a can move along the extension direction of the first water outlet pipe 116 to switch between a sealed position and an open position. A reset element 1112b is located on the side of the valve limiting ring 116b furthest from the inner cavity of the cup body 111. Specifically, the reset element 1112b is an elastic reset element. Along the extension direction of the first water outlet pipe 116, both ends of the reset element 1112b abut against the valve limiting ring 116b and the valve core 1112a, respectively.

[0185] Understandably, the valve limiting ring 116b is sealed to the inner wall of the first outlet pipe 116. Optionally, Figure 11c In the illustrated embodiment, the valve limiting ring 116b and the first water outlet pipe 116 are integrally formed. It should be noted that in another embodiment, the valve limiting ring and the first water outlet pipe can also be formed separately and sealed and fixedly connected by welding or other methods.

[0186] More specifically, the valve core 1112a has an annular anti-detachment groove on its side wall, the valve seal 1112c covers one end of the valve core 1112a near the inner cavity of the cup body 111, and the bottom side of the valve seal 1112c has an anti-detachment part that matches the annular anti-detachment groove, so that the valve seal 1112c can be more stably fixed on the valve core 1112a.

[0187] Figure 11a and Figure 11cThe illustration exemplarily shows the internal structure of the beverage device when the second water outlet pipe 128 is in the second position. At this time, the valve assembly 1112 and the inner wall of the first water outlet pipe 116 are sealed, the valve core 1112a is in the sealed position, and the liquid in the cup body 111 cannot flow out from the first water outlet 111a through the first water outlet pipe. Figure 11c As shown, there is a gap H between the side wall of the second water outlet pipe 128 and the second sealing ring 131. Figure 11b and Figure 11d The diagram exemplifies the internal structure of the beverage device when the second water outlet pipe 128 is in the first position. The inner rib of the second water outlet pipe 128 lifts the valve core 1112a, eliminating the sealing effect of the valve assembly 1112 on the first water outlet pipe 116. The valve core 1112a is in the open position, allowing liquid in the cup body 111 to flow out through the first water outlet 111a and the first water outlet pipe 116. Furthermore, the sidewall of the second water outlet pipe 128 is sealed to the second sealing ring 131, eliminating the gap H between the sidewall of the second water outlet pipe 128 and the second sealing ring 131, thus isolating the inner cavity of the second water outlet pipe 128 from external components. The inner rib of the second water outlet pipe 128 is located inside the sidewall of the second water outlet pipe 128.

[0188] See Figure 14 and Figure 18c The second housing 127 has a water baffle 127c inside; the water outlet seat 120 has a motor 129, which is located on the side of the water baffle 127c away from the drain hole 127a, so as to isolate the motor 129 from the drain hole 127a, prevent water from flowing to the motor 129, and also prevent water from flowing through the motor 129 into the interior of the beverage equipment.

[0189] See Figure 15a The first coupler 112 is provided with a conductive spring 112e. The conductive spring 112e is used to abut against the conductive contact 117a to make electrical contact with the conductive contact 117a, thereby supplying power to the heating element 117. Compared with the traditional method of achieving electrical contact through wires, this application uses a conductive spring 112e to make electrical contact with the conductive contact 117a. The conductive spring 112e is not easily aged by heat and is not easily damaged by thermal contact with the heating element 117b, thus having a longer service life, thereby increasing the service life of the first coupler 112. There is no need to set up a heat insulation structure for the wires, saving design space.

[0190] In addition, the conductive spring 112e is elastic and abuts against the conductive contact 117a, which can better ensure the electrical connection between the conductive spring 112e and the conductive contact 117a. Furthermore, the large contact area between the conductive spring 112e and the conductive contact 117a also allows for a better electrical connection.

[0191] Optionally, the conductive spring 112e is a copper spring. It is understood that the conductive spring 112e is not limited to copper springs, and can also be formed of other conductive materials.

[0192] See Figure 16a and Figure 16b In another embodiment of the beverage device provided in this application, the side wall of the first water outlet 111a has an extension section 111f extending from the bottom wall of the cup body 111 towards the bottom side; the first water outlet pipe 116 is partially inserted into the first water outlet 111a. On the one hand, the provision of the extension section 111f increases the depth of the first water outlet 111a, increases the contact area between the first water outlet 111a and the first water outlet pipe 116, and reduces the pressure on the side wall of the first water outlet 111a; on the other hand, the provision of the extension section 111f increases the length of the first water outlet pipe 116 extending into the first water outlet 111a, increases the contact area between the first water outlet pipe 116 and the first water outlet 111a, and reduces the pressure on the side wall of the first water outlet pipe 116; furthermore, the provision of the extension section 111f, by increasing the length of the first water outlet pipe 116 extending into the first water outlet 111a, can effectively prevent excessive tilting of the first water outlet pipe 116.

[0193] Furthermore, the cup assembly also includes a fourth sealing ring 1113, which has a sealing slot 1113a that matches the extension section 111f; the inner wall of the sealing slot 1113a is annularly sealed to the first water outlet pipe 116. On the one hand, the contact surface between the fourth sealing ring 1113 and the extension section 111f is approximately U-shaped, which increases the contact area between the fourth sealing ring 1113 and the extension section 111f, thereby increasing the sealing performance between the fourth sealing ring 1113 and the extension section 111f.

[0194] like Figure 16b As shown, the fourth sealing ring 1113 is located between the extension section 111f and the coupler bracket (i.e., the protective housing 1110) of the first coupler 112. The fourth sealing ring 1113 also seals against the coupler bracket of the first coupler 112, which can further restrict the flow of liquid from the outlet 111a to the first coupler 112 and reduce the contact between the electrical components in the first coupler 112, including the first conductive element 112b, and the liquid.

[0195] See Figure 16b and Figure 17 In the embodiment shown, the filter element 1111 is disposed in the inner cavity of the cup body 111; the filter element 1111 is fixedly disposed on the bottom wall of the cup body 111 and covers the first water outlet 111a.

[0196] Specifically, the filter element 1111 is provided with a fastener 1111a. The fastener 1111a is inserted into the first water outlet pipe 116 and abuts against and fixes against the inner side wall of the first water outlet pipe 116. This keeps the filter element 1111 fixed to the first water outlet pipe 116.

[0197] For more details, see Figure 17 The fastener 1111a has three evenly distributed circumferential abutment portions 1111b. The abutment portions 1111b abut against the inner wall of the first water outlet pipe 116. It is understood that in other embodiments, the distribution of the abutment portions 1111b is not limited to this, nor is the number of abutment portions 1111b limited; they can abut against the inner wall of the first water outlet pipe 116 to fix the filter element 1111 to the first water outlet pipe 116.

[0198] See Figure 18a The bottom wall of the cup assembly 110 is provided with a drain hole 1114 so that when the user accidentally places the cup assembly 110 in a watery place, the liquid is stored in the cavity where the drain hole 1114 is located. This cavity is isolated from the first coupler 112. When the user takes the cup assembly 110 out, the liquid stored in the cup assembly 110 is discharged through the drain hole 1114, so as to prevent the components in the cup assembly 110 from getting damp or soaked in water and improve the service life of the cup assembly 110.

[0199] like Figure 19 As shown, in some embodiments, the cup assembly 110 further includes a third housing 1116, which has a bottom wall of the cup assembly 110. The third housing 1116 is used to support the first coupler 112. A water-receiving groove 1116a is formed on the third housing 1116 along the circumference of the first coupler 112. A drain hole 1114 is located on the bottom wall of the water-receiving groove 1116a. The side wall of the water-receiving groove 1116a near the first coupler 112 serves as a water-blocking wall 1116b to restrict the flow of liquid in the water-receiving groove 1116a to the first coupler 112, thereby reducing the impact of liquid on the electrical components on the first coupler 112.

[0200] like Figure 19 As shown, the electrical components on the first coupler 112 include a first conductive element 112b and a power contact terminal 112f connected to the first conductive element 112b. The power contact terminal 112f extends from the first coupler 112 into the water tank 1116a.

[0201] like Figure 19 As shown, the third housing 1116 is connected to the cup side wall 111b, and the cup bottom wall 111c is located between the cup side wall 111b and the third housing 1116.

[0202] like Figure 18aAs shown, exemplarily, the bottom wall of the cup assembly 110 is further provided with a plurality of support protrusions 1115. The distance between the plurality of support protrusions 1115 and the water outlet seat 120 is less than the distance between the electrical components on the first coupler 112 and the water outlet seat 120. The support protrusions 1115 protrude toward the water outlet seat 120. When the cup assembly 110 is separated from the water outlet seat 120 and the cup assembly 110 is placed on a supporting surface such as a table, the cup assembly 110 relies on the support protrusions 1115 to contact the supporting surface, providing support and anti-slip function. It can also reduce the contact area between the bottom wall of the cup assembly 110 and the supporting surface, reducing wear on the supporting surface. At the same time, the protruding support protrusions 1115 are at a certain distance from the bottom wall of the cup assembly 110, so even if there are some water stains on the supporting surface, the support protrusions 1115 can isolate the water stains, providing a certain degree of waterproofing.

[0203] The distance between the support protrusion 1115 and the water outlet seat 120 is less than the distance between the electrical components on the first coupler 112 and the water outlet seat. In other words, the support protrusion 1115 is located at the lowest point of the cup assembly 110, which can better reduce the impact of water stains on the support surface on the electrical components on the first coupler 112.

[0204] like Figure 1 and Figure 20 As shown, in some embodiments, the beverage device further includes a lid assembly 140, which is capable of covering the cup body 111. The lid assembly 140 has a water inlet communicating with the interior of the cup body 111 for adding liquid into the cup body 111.

[0205] The cup lid assembly 140 has a closed state and an open state relative to the cup body 111. When the cup lid assembly 140 is in the closed state, the cup lid assembly 140 covers the cup body 111.

[0206] Figure 1 and Figure 1a An exemplary schematic diagram of the beverage device is shown when the cup lid assembly 140 is in the closed state. Figure 1b An exemplary schematic diagram of the beverage device is shown when the cup lid assembly 140 is in the open state.

[0207] For example, such as Figure 20As shown, the beverage device also includes a sensor 150b and an inlet / outlet water control valve. The sensor is installed at the inlet of the lid assembly 140 or the cup body 111. The inlet / outlet water control valve and the sensor 150b are both electrically connected to the controller. When the lid assembly 140 is closed on the cup body 111, the sensor 150b generates a sensing signal. The controller can control the inlet / outlet water control valve based on the sensing signal, thereby controlling the liquid to enter the cup body 111 from the inlet. When the lid assembly 140 and the cup body 111 are open, the sensor 150b does not generate a sensing signal, and no liquid enters the cup body 111 from the inlet.

[0208] like Figure 20 As shown, the inlet and outlet water control valve may include multiple solenoid valves 156. Of course, in other feasible embodiments, the inlet and outlet water control valve may also be a single solenoid valve.

[0209] Therefore, in this embodiment of the application, by controlling the cup lid assembly 140 to be in an open state relative to the cup body 111, water can be stopped; by controlling the cup lid assembly 140 to be in a closed state relative to the cup body 111, water can be added to the cup body 111, and water can also be stopped when the water volume reaches a predetermined water volume and / or when a stop water adding command is received.

[0210] like Figure 20 As shown, in some embodiments, the beverage device further includes: a raw water tank 159 and a body 150, the body including: a purified water tank 152, a filter assembly 153, and piping 154. Combined with... Figure 1 As shown, the beverage equipment also includes a housing 151, a purified water tank 152, a filter assembly 153, and a pipe 154, all located inside the housing 151. The filter assembly 153 connects the raw water tank 159 and the purified water tank 152. The inlet of the pipe 154 is connected to the purified water tank 152, and the outlet of the pipe 154 is connected to the water inlet of the cup lid assembly 140. The cup lid assembly 140 is connected to the housing 151.

[0211] The raw water tank 159 can be used to store tap water or spring water, etc. The filter assembly 153 is used to filter and purify the water in the raw water tank 159 to obtain clean water, which is stored in the clean water tank 152. The pipeline 154 is used to transport the water in the clean water tank 152 to the cup body 111.

[0212] For example, the filter assembly 153 includes: activated carbon filter, reverse osmosis filter, etc.

[0213] The purified water in the water tank 152 enters the cup body 111 through the inlet of the cup lid assembly 140 to brew the food in the cup body 111. Then, the heating element 117b can continue to heat the liquid in the cup body 111. After that, the liquid in the cup body 111 enters the first water outlet 116 through the first water outlet 111a and flows to the second water outlet 128. Finally, it flows from the second water outlet 128 to the water receiving container 160 for the user to drink.

[0214] In some embodiments, the beverage device further includes a heating structure 155 located within the housing 151 and between the water tank 152 and the water inlet of the lid assembly 140. The heating structure 155 is used to heat the liquid in the pipeline 154 leading to the water inlet of the lid assembly 140.

[0215] The heating structure 155 can heat the liquid in the pipe 154, thereby ensuring that the liquid entering the cup body 111 is at a higher temperature. This can meet the user's needs for drinking hot water or brewing tea.

[0216] like Figure 20 As shown, the heating structure 155 can be a heating tube.

[0217] Taking tea brewing as an example, the beverage device of this application embodiment will be further described. The cup lid assembly 140 is pivotally connected to the body 150, and thus, the cup lid assembly 140 can rotate to switch between a closed state and an open state. The pipeline 154 includes at least a tea outlet communicating with the water inlet of the cup lid assembly 140. Before brewing tea, tea leaves can be placed in the cup body 111, and the cup body assembly 110 and the water outlet seat 120 can be assembled in place, so that the first conductive element 112b in the first coupler 112 contacts the second conductive element 121a in the second coupler 121 to supply power to the heating element 117 at the bottom of the cup body assembly 110. After the lid assembly 140 is closed and the cup body assembly 110 is in place, commands are issued via button or touch operation on the control panel 150a connected to the main unit 150. This controls the heating of purified water in the water tank 152, which then flows through the tea outlet 154b of the pipe 154 into the cup body 111 from the lid assembly, initially brewing the tea leaves for brewing. Water filling automatically stops after completion, and the thick-film heating plate (i.e., heating element 117) begins full-power heating to start brewing the tea. The water temperature is detected by the temperature sensor 170 in the cup body 111. When the water in the cup body 111 begins to boil, the power is reduced to 100W for gentle simmering, stopping heating after approximately 2 to 3 minutes. Figure 11c As shown, during tea brewing, the valve core 1112a located inside the first water outlet pipe 1116 is in a sealed position, and the valve seal 1112c blocks the first water outlet pipe 116, preventing water from flowing out through the first water outlet pipe 116. After tea brewing is complete, as... Figure 11bAs shown, motor 129 (specifically, a stepper motor) drives a rocker arm to lift, which in turn lifts the second water outlet pipe 128 upwards. The second water outlet pipe 128 then pushes the valve core 1112a upwards, causing the valve core 1112a to move to the open position. The valve seal 1112c no longer blocks the first water outlet pipe 116, allowing tea to flow through the first water outlet pipe 116 into the second water outlet pipe 128 and into the cup (i.e., the water receiving container 160) below it. After the tea in the cup 111 has drained, the stepper motor reverses and returns to its original position, and the valve core 1112a returns to its sealed position.

[0218] Besides being a cup, the water container 160 can also be... Figure 1a and Figure 1b The kettle shown has an opening at the top.

[0219] When the first coupler 112 and the second coupler 121 are installed in place, they can not only be electrically connected to the heating element 117 to supply power to the heating element 117, but also be electrically connected to the temperature sensor 170 to supply power to the temperature sensor 170. The first coupler 112 can achieve electrical connection with the heating element 117 and the temperature sensor 170 respectively through the first conductive element 112b.

[0220] Temperature sensor 170 can be located inside cup body 111 to detect the temperature of the liquid inside cup body 111. Figure 11a A temperature sensor 170 is shown exemplarily mounted on the bottom wall 111c of the cup body 111. The temperature sensor 170 is not limited to being mounted on the bottom wall 111c; it can also be mounted on the side wall of the cup body 111 or at other locations within the cup body 111. This application embodiment does not limit this.

[0221] When the temperature sensor 170 detects that the liquid temperature inside the cup 111 has not reached the preset temperature, the heating element 117 can heat at a first power until the temperature sensor 170 detects that the liquid inside the cup 111 has reached the preset temperature. Then, the heating element 117 can heat at a second power for a certain time (e.g., 2-3 minutes) and then stop heating. Alternatively, the heating element 117 can immediately stop heating once the temperature sensor 170 detects that the liquid inside the cup 111 has reached the preset temperature. Without limitation, the preset temperature can be 100°C, the second power can be 100W, and the first power is greater than the second power.

[0222] The water outlet base 120 is fixed to the body, for reference. Figure 1 As shown, the handle 111g of the cup body assembly 110 can be directly grasped and rotated to remove it. Figure 1The cup assembly 110 of the drinking device shown is sealed by the spring (i.e., the reset member 1112b) of the valve core 1112a, so that the first water outlet pipe 116 will not leak water and the cup assembly 110 can be cleaned.

[0223] like Figure 20 As shown, a heat preservation water collection box 150c can also be provided below the water outlet 120, and the cup body 111 can be placed in the heat preservation water collection box 150c to keep the tea in the cup body 111 warm.

[0224] The purified water flowing out of the tea outlet 154b of the pipe 154 has been heated by the heating structure 155. Therefore, before brewing tea, the tea leaves in the cup 111 can be brewed, and the water in the cup 111 can be heated by the heating element 117 according to the type of tea being brewed.

[0225] In some embodiments, the spout base 120 is fixed to the housing 151. Both the lid assembly 140 and the spout base 120 are mounted on the housing, while the cup body assembly 110 may not be mounted on the housing. The spout base 120 can support the cup body assembly 110 and facilitates the separation of the cup body assembly 110 from the machine body when adding tea, eliminating the need to carry the lid assembly 140 and the spout base 120, making it more convenient to use.

[0226] like Figure 20 As shown, the pipeline 154 may also include a water outlet 154a, which is separately provided from the tea outlet 154b. The water outlet 154a can provide hot water heated by the heating structure 155, or it can also provide purified water that is not heated by the heating structure 155 / or purified water that is not heated by the heating structure 155, in order to meet different needs. Figure 20 The arrow on the central pipe 154 indicates the direction of water flow.

[0227] In addition, a booster pump 157b, a flow pump 157a, and a water vapor separator 158 can also be installed in the pipeline 154. The water vapor separator 158 is connected to the water outlet and the clean water tank so that the vapor can be discharged into the clean water tank 152. The water in the clean water tank 152 cannot flow directly out of the water outlet 154a to avoid dripping from the water outlet 154a.

[0228] In some embodiments, the tea outlet 154b is higher than the highest liquid level line of the purified water tank 152. Since water will not flow upwards, this can reduce the dripping problem when the tea outlet 154b is not in use.

[0229] like Figure 1As shown, in some embodiments, the cup assembly 110 protrudes from the body 150. The beverage device of this application embodiment includes not only the cup assembly 110 and the water outlet 120 for brewing tea, but also the body 150 for providing purified water and having a heating function, thus offering richer functionality and meeting more needs.

[0230] Without conflict, different embodiments or technical features of this application can be arbitrarily combined to form new embodiments. It should be understood that the above embodiments are exemplary and not intended to encompass all possible implementations included in the claims. Various modifications and changes can be made to the above embodiments without departing from the scope of this disclosure. Similarly, the various technical features of the above embodiments can be arbitrarily combined to form other embodiments of the invention that may not be explicitly described. Therefore, the above embodiments only illustrate several implementations of the present invention and do not limit the scope of protection of this patent.
