[0002] In today's life, coffee latte art is deeply favored by consumers due to its beauty. However, as the coffee latte art process is relatively delicate, it requires professional coffee latte artists to be competent, resulting in a shortage of supply. Therefore, coffee latte art machines came into being.

[0003] In this regard, China has applied for patent number: CN107928430B, which discloses a cam-controlled 3D coffee latte machine for processing multiple cups, including a machine body, a 3D print head, a drawer, and a cup holder. The 3D print head and the cup holder are fixedly connected to the machine body, and the cup holder is arranged on the lower side of the 3D print head. The drawer is arranged on the lower side of the inner part of the machine body and is slidably connected to the machine body. A cup holder, a transmission device and a drive device are arranged inside the drawer, and the cup holder, the transmission device and the drive device are respectively connected to the machine body. A gear lever is arranged inside the machine body. This setting not only solves the problem that the traditional 3D coffee latte machine cannot process multiple cups automatically, but also realizes that 4 cups of coffee can be put into the latte machine at one time, and 4 cups of coffee can be processed once, eliminating the problem of taking cups many times and the inconvenience of operating the machine, but also has the effect of heat preservation and dust prevention for the coffee in the waiting sequence, which is very intelligent and convenient.

[0004] However, in actual use, coffee cannot be prepared in advance during the process of latte art, and the process of latte art consumes a certain amount of time. When a large amount of latte art coffee needs to be prepared, the time consumed (the time consumed during the process of latte art) will be wasted, so that you need to wait for the coffee to enter the cup holder before you can perform the latte art operation. The latte art equipment cannot continuously perform the latte art operation on multiple cups of coffee at the same time. At the same time, coffee or milk foam will spill during the process of latte art, which is troublesome to clean later. At the same time, coffee cannot be transported to a designated location for customers to eat during the latte art operation. The overall processing has limitations.

The mechanical arm 9 can also continue to perform the above operation, and then continue to place the coffee that has been completed in the latte art clamping and adjusting mechanism 13 on the top surface of the placing table 11 for clamping, and the latte art clamping and adjusting mechanism 13 on the top surface of the placing table 11 is provided with four groups, so that when the latte art operation is performed, the coffee will continue to be made, and when the coffee latte art inside the latte art clamping and adjusting mechanism 13 is completed, the second mechanical arm 10 can place the coffee cup on the surface of the conveyor belt 12, and then start the bidirectional motor 26, and the bidirectional motor 26 drives the rotating disk 25 to rotate, which can drive the placing table 11 to rotate as a whole, so that the coffee inside the other group of latte art clamping and adjusting mechanism 13 after rotation can be subjected to the latte art operation, and the first mechanical arm 9 can also realize the operation of making coffee, and the made coffee can be sequentially clamped and placed inside the latte art clamping and adjusting mechanism 13, and when there is no need to make coffee, the first mechanical arm 9 and the second mechanical arm 10 can simultaneously perform the latte art operation on the coffee made inside the latte art clamping and adjusting mechanism 13; When the second robot arm 10 places the coffee cup with the pattern on the surface of the conveyor belt 12, the bidirectional motor 26 will also rotate to drive the rotating disk 25 and the placement table 11 to rotate 90 degrees to rotate the next group of coffee cups that need to be patterned to the bottom of the second robot arm 10, so that the bidirectional motor 26 will also drive the worm gear 27 to rotate, and then the worm gear 27 will drive the worm 28 to rotate, and then the worm 28 will drive the first transmission mechanism 29 to rotate, and at this time the first transmission mechanism 29 will drive the active roller 30 to rotate, and at this time the active roller 30 rotates counterclockwise, and then drives The conveyor belt 12 rotates counterclockwise, so that the conveyor belt 12 can drive the coffee cups on its surface to move. When the coffee cups move to the lower surface of the cup dropper body 6, the coffee is capped or not capped according to the order situation on the display screen on the outer surface of the coffee machine body 3, and then the conveyor belt 12 will continue to rotate. When the conveyor belt 12 rotates, the transmission roller 31 will also be driven, and the transmission roller 31 will drive the resistance block 32 to rotate. When the resistance block 32 resists the back of the push plate 36, the push plate 36 and the spring shaft 34 can be rotated in resistance. At this time, the push plate 36 and the spring shaft 34 are pushed and rotated. 6 will rotate clockwise, and then the first pushing block 35 will also rotate, and then the spring shaft 34 will drive the second transmission mechanism 33 to rotate, and the second transmission mechanism 33 will drive the first gear 37 to rotate, and the first gear 37 and the second gear 38 will mesh, so that the second gear 38 will drive the connecting column 39 to start rotating counterclockwise, and at this time the second pushing block 40 will also rotate counterclockwise. The slow rotation of the first pushing block 35 and the second pushing block 40 can assist in pushing the coffee moving on the surface of the conveyor belt 12 into the inside of the placement slot 41 for placement. The rotation is operated according to the rotation of the bidirectional motor 26. Therefore, when the latte art operation is performed on multiple cups of coffee, the bidirectional motor 26 will be started intermittently, so that multiple cups of processed coffee cups will be piled up on the surface of the conveyor belt 12. The auxiliary pushing operation accelerates the movement speed of the coffee cups and avoids the problem of two adjacent groups of coffee cups being too close to each other. Therefore, the present arrangement can also process multiple cups of coffee cups transported by the entire surface of the conveyor belt 12 at the same time, and can also assist the coffee cups with completed latte art to be placed inside the placement groove 41. The above is all the working principles of the present invention.
