[0052] To facilitate understanding of the present invention, specific embodiments of the present invention will be described in more detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0053] Unless otherwise specified or defined, the terms "first," "second," etc., used in this document are for distinguishing names only and do not represent a specific number or order.

[0054] Unless otherwise stated or defined, the term “and / or” as used herein includes any and all combinations of one or more of the related listed items.

[0055] It should be noted that when a component is considered "fixed" to another component, it can be directly fixed to the other component or there can be an intervening component; when a component is considered "connected" to another component, it can be directly connected to the other component or there can be an intervening component; when a component is considered "mounted" on another component, it can be directly mounted on the other component or there can be an intervening component; when a component is considered "placed" on another component, it can be directly placed on the other component or there can be an intervening component.

[0056] like Figures 1 to 12 As shown, the automatic mixing and dispensing powder brewing device 100 includes a support base 2, a rotating assembly 4, a pushing assembly 6, and six powder cylinders 1. The rotating assembly 4 is rotatably mounted on the support base 2, and at least two sets of powder cylinders 1 are mounted on the support base 2 and arranged around the rotating assembly 4. The pushing assembly 6 is mounted on the upper end of the rotating assembly 4, and the lower end of the rotating assembly 4 has a cup holder 431. Each powder cylinder 1 has a movable seal 12 and a first powder outlet 134. The movable seal 12 is used to open or close the first powder outlet 134. The pushing assembly 6 cooperates with the movable seal 12 of any powder cylinder 1. The rotating assembly 4 has at least a first moving position and a second moving position. In the first moving position, the pushing assembly 6 acts on the movable seal 12 of the first powder cylinder 1, and the cup holder 431 corresponds to the first powder outlet 134 of the first powder cylinder 1. In the second moving position, the pushing assembly 6 acts on the movable seal 12 of the second powder cylinder 1, and the cup holder 431 corresponds to the first powder outlet 134 of the second powder cylinder 1.

[0057] Specifically, six powder cartridges 1 are arranged around the rotating assembly 4 and fixed on the support base 2. The six powder cartridges 1 cannot move. The rotating assembly 4 has eight moving positions, six of which are used to move to the bottom of the six powder cartridges 1, and the remaining two moving positions are used to correspond to the automatic cup dispenser 3 and the water receiving position. The cup holder 431 is used to place the brewing cup 7. When the rotating assembly 4 rotates, it drives the pushing assembly 6 and the cup holder 431 to move synchronously.

[0058] When the rotating component 4 moves to the first moving position, the cup holder 431 moves to correspond with the first powder outlet 134 of the first powder cylinder 1. The pushing component 6 can also act on the movable seal 12 of the first powder cylinder 1, pushing the movable seal 12 open. The nutritional powder or seasoning from the first powder cylinder 1 is then poured into the brewing cup 7 of the cup holder 431 through the first powder outlet 134. When the rotating component 4 moves to the second moving position, the cup holder 431 moves to correspond with the first powder outlet 134 of the second powder cylinder 1. The pushing component 6 can also act on the movable seal 12 of the second powder cylinder 1, pushing the movable seal 12 open. The nutritional powder or seasoning from the second powder cylinder 1 is then poured into the brewing cup 7 of the cup holder 431 through the first powder outlet 134. This process can be repeated to mix various nutritional powders. In this embodiment, the rotating component 4 can also move the cup holder 431 to the position of the water outlet 21 to complete the brewing of the nutritional powder.

[0059] Furthermore, in this automatic mixing and brewing device 100, since both the pushing component 6 and the cup holder 431 are driven by the rotating component 4, during the brewing operation, it is only necessary to control the rotational position of the rotating component 4. When the cup holder 431 moves below any powder cylinder 1, the pushing component 6 will also correspond to the powder cylinder 1 and act on it, causing the nutrient powder in the powder cylinder 1 to fall into the brewing cup 7 of the cup holder 431. This mixing method only requires controlling the rotational position of the rotating component 4, which can be achieved through an encoder. In this embodiment, the encoder is a conventional technology and will not be described in detail here.

[0060] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the automatic mixing and dispensing powder brewing device 100 is designed to simultaneously drive the cup holder 431 and the pushing component 6 to move, so that the pushing component 6 acts on the powder cylinder 1 corresponding to the cup holder 431. This precise control also solves the problems of high power consumption and low automation.

[0061] Preferably, the movable seal 12 has the basic function of opening or closing the first powder outlet 134, and the movable seal 12 can be a simple sealing plate.

[0062] In other embodiments, the movable seal 12 also has a quantitative powder dispensing function to dispense powder from the powder cylinder 1 into the brewing cup 7 of the cup holder 431. Each powder cylinder 1 also has a container 11 and a dispensing seat 13. The dispensing seat 13 has a movable cavity 1321, and the movable seal 12 is movably disposed in the movable cavity 1321. The support base 2 has a second powder outlet 138, and the movable seal 12 has a buffer cavity 123. Under the action of the pushing component 6, the movable seal 12 has a third moving position and a fourth moving position. In the third moving position, the buffer cavity 123 communicates with the container 11, and in the fourth moving position, the buffer cavity 123 communicates with the second powder outlet 138. Preferably, the dispensing seat 13 is fixed to the mounting groove 24 on the support base 2 to improve the stability of the dispensing seat 13 on the support base 2.

[0063] Specifically, the movable seal 12 has a buffer cavity 123, and the nutrient powder of the powder cylinder 1 can fall into the buffer cavity 123 first. The feeding seat 13 has a movable cavity 1321. The movable seal 12 enters the movable cavity 1321 through the inlet 133 of the feeding seat 13. By pushing the movable seal 12, the movable seal 12 has a third movable position and a fourth movable position in the movable cavity 1321. When the movable seal 12 moves to the third moving position, the buffer chamber 123 is connected to the container 11, and the powder in the container 11 enters the buffer chamber 123 for buffering. When the movable seal 12 moves to the fourth moving position, the buffer chamber 123 is connected to the second powder outlet 138, and the nutrient powder in the buffer chamber 123 falls into the brewing cup 7 of the cup holder 431 through the second powder outlet 138. Therefore, when the pushing component 6 acts on the movable seal 12, the movable seal 12 has a quantitative powder receiving function, so that it drops a quantitative amount of powder into the brewing cup 7, realizing the quantitative powder dispensing of the powder cylinder 1.

[0064] In this embodiment, this quantitative powder dispensing method is more suitable for fitness enthusiasts. Different sizes of buffer chambers 123 can be set according to different powder cylinders 1, and then the powder can be formulated according to the body's nutritional needs to meet the specific needs of specific groups of people.

[0065] Preferably, the movable seal 12 includes a housing 121 and a first sealing plate 122. A buffer cavity 123 is formed inside the housing 121. The first sealing plate 122 is installed on one side of the housing 121. The feed seat 13 has a second sealing plate 139. In the third movable position, the second sealing plate 139 seals the lower opening of the buffer cavity 123, and the upper opening of the buffer cavity 123 communicates with the first powder outlet 134. In the fourth movable position, the first sealing plate 122 seals the first powder outlet 134, and the lower opening of the buffer cavity 123 communicates with the second powder outlet 138.

[0066] Specifically, by setting the housing 121, a buffer cavity 123 is formed inside the housing 121, and the housing 121 moves within the movable cavity 1321; when the movable seal 12 is in the third moving position, the upper opening of the buffer cavity 123 is connected to the first powder outlet 134, and the nutrient powder of the powder cylinder 1 enters the buffer cavity 123 through the first powder outlet 134, while the lower opening of the buffer cavity 123 is sealed by the second sealing plate 139; when the movable seal 12 is in the fourth moving position, the first sealing plate 122 seals the first powder outlet 134 to prevent the nutrient powder of the powder cylinder 1 from leaking, while the lower opening of the buffer cavity 123 is connected to the second powder outlet 138, so that the nutrient powder in the buffer cavity 123 falls into the brewing cup 7 of the cup holder 431, further realizing quantitative mixing of nutrient powder.

[0067] Preferably, the feeding seat 13 includes a funnel 131 and a base 132. The funnel 131 and the base 132 are an integral structure. The container 11 is installed on the funnel 131, and the base 132 is installed on the support seat 2. A movable cavity 1321 is formed inside the base 132, and the funnel 131 communicates with the movable cavity 1321.

[0068] Specifically, the powder chamber 111 of the powder cylinder 1 is filled with nutrient powder, which is then concentrated and discharged into the buffer chamber 123 through the funnel 131. The second powder outlet 138 is offset from the first powder outlet 134. When the movable sealing member 12 moves to the third or fourth moving position, the buffer chamber 123 corresponds to the first powder outlet 134 or the second powder outlet 138. Therefore, when the movable sealing member 12 moves to the third moving position, the second powder outlet 138 is sealed, and when the movable sealing member 12 moves to the fourth moving position, the first powder outlet 134 is sealed.

[0069] In this embodiment, the movable seal 12 has two sealing rings 127. The two sealing rings 127 are located at the upper and lower ends of the housing 121 and are sleeved on the outside of the buffer cavity 123. The sealing rings 127 are used to improve the stability of the communication between the first powder outlet 134 and the second powder outlet 138 and the buffer cavity 123, respectively, and to prevent the nutrient powder from leaking out.

[0070] Preferably, the support base 2 has a first sensing element 135 and a second sensing element 136, and the movable seal 12 has a trigger element 137. When the movable seal 12 is in a third moving position, the trigger element 137 cooperates with the first sensing element 135. When the movable seal 12 is in a fourth moving position, the trigger element 137 cooperates with the second sensing element 136.

[0071] Specifically, the trigger 137 is used to cooperate with the first sensor 135 and the second sensor 136. When the moving seal 12 is in the third moving position, the trigger 137 and the first sensor 135 cooperate, and the moving seal 12 stops at the third moving position, ensuring that the nutrient powder in the powder cylinder 1 falls into the buffer chamber 123. When the moving seal 12 is in the fourth moving position, the trigger 137 and the second sensor 136 cooperate, and the moving seal 12 stops at the fourth moving position, ensuring that the nutrient powder in the buffer chamber 123 falls into the brewing cup 7 of the cup holder 431. The first sensor 135 and the second sensor 136 improve the accuracy of the movement of the moving seal 12.

[0072] To achieve the third and fourth moving positions of the movable seal 12, in some embodiments, the movable seal 12 further includes a first abutment plate 125 and a second abutment plate 126, with a limiting groove 124 formed between the first abutment plate 125 and the second abutment plate 126. The pushing component 6 is at least partially located within the limiting groove 124, and the pushing component 6 abuts against the first abutment plate 125 or the second abutment plate 126, and is used to push the movable seal 12 to move radially in the rotating component 4.

[0073] Specifically, the pushing component 6 is at least partially located within the limiting groove 124. The pushing component 6 acts on the second abutment plate 126, pushing the second abutment plate 126 to move, causing the movable seal 12 to move away from the pushing component 6. The pushing component 6 acts on the first abutment plate 125, pulling the first abutment plate 125 to move, causing the movable seal 12 to move toward the pushing component 6, further realizing that the movable seal 12 has a third moving position and a fourth moving position.

[0074] Preferably, the pushing assembly 6 includes a first driving member 61, a support frame 62, a driving rod 63, and a pushing block 64. The first driving member 61 and the support frame 62 are both mounted on the rotating assembly 4. The first end of the driving rod 63 is mounted on the output end of the first driving member 61, and the second end of the driving rod 63 is rotatably connected to the support frame 62. The pushing block 64 is mounted on the third end of the driving rod 63, and the pushing block 64 is threadedly engaged with the driving rod 63. The pushing block 64 is in the limiting groove 124 and abuts against the first abutting plate 125 and the second abutting plate 126 respectively. The pushing block 64 acts on the first abutting plate 125 and the second abutting plate 126 to make the movable seal 12 have a third moving position and a fourth moving position.

[0075] Specifically, the support frame 62 is used to support the drive rod 63, and the first drive member 61 is used to drive the drive rod 63 to rotate. The section of the drive rod 63 that cooperates with the push block 64 has an external thread, so that the drive rod 63 and the push block 64 are threadedly engaged. When the push block 64 is in the limiting groove 124, the bottom of the push block 64 abuts against the bottom of the movable seal 12, and the two sides of the push block 64 abut against the first abutting plate 125 and the second abutting plate 126. The drive rod 63 rotates clockwise or counterclockwise, which can make the push block 64 move back and forth along the axis of the drive rod 63. The push block 64 acts on the first abutting plate 125 or the second abutting plate 126, further realizing that the movable seal 12 has a third moving position and a fourth moving position.

[0076] In this embodiment, the second end of the drive rod 63 is located near its middle part, while its first end and third end are located at the two ends of the drive rod 63, respectively.

[0077] In this embodiment, the movable seal 12 also has a clearance hole for avoiding the drive rod 63. When the push block 64 acts on the first abutment plate 125 or the second abutment plate 126, the drive rod 63 extends into the clearance hole, so that the push block 64 drives the movable seal 12 to move back and forth.

[0078] Preferably, both the first abutting plate 125 and the second abutting plate 126 are bent. The first abutting plate 125 has a first outer arc surface 1251, and the second abutting plate 126 has a second outer arc surface 1261. The first outer arc surface 1251 faces the second outer arc surface 1261, and a limiting groove 124 is formed between the first outer arc surface 1251 and the second outer arc surface 1261. The pushing block 64 has a connecting part 641 and a driving part 642. The connecting part 641 and the driving part 642 are integral structures, and the connecting part 641 is located at the upper end of the driving part 642. The connecting part 641 is sleeved on the outside of the driving rod 63 and is threadedly connected to the driving rod 63. The driving part 642 cooperates with the limiting groove 124. The driving part 642 is bent along the circumference of the rotating assembly 4.

[0079] Specifically, the first outer arc surface 1251 of the first abutment plate 125 faces the second outer arc surface 1261 of the second abutment plate 126, making the limiting groove 124 have a shape with large openings at both ends and a narrowing in the middle. The larger openings at both ends of the limiting groove 124 facilitate the entry of the pushing block 64 into the limiting groove 124 during rotation. The connecting part 641 of the pushing block 64 is used to cooperate with the drive rod 63. When the connecting part 641 moves in the axial direction of the drive rod 63, it drives the drive part 642 to move back and forth. The drive part 642 is bent along the circumference of the rotating assembly 4, and the direction of the arc of the drive part 642 is consistent with the rotation direction of the rotating assembly 4, which facilitates the entry of the drive part 642 into the limiting groove 124 and avoids interference.

[0080] Preferably, the rotating assembly 4 includes a second driving member 45, a first support plate 41, a second support plate 43, and a connecting shaft 42. The second driving member 45 is mounted on the support base 2, and the connecting shaft 42 is fixedly connected to the output end of the second driving member 45. The first support plate 41 and the second support plate 43 are respectively sleeved on both ends of the connecting shaft 42 and fixedly connected to the connecting shaft 42. Both the first support plate 41 and the second support plate 43 are rotatably connected to the support base 2. The first support plate 41 and the second support plate 43 are arranged vertically, and the outer diameter of the second support plate 43 is larger than the outer diameter of the first support plate 41. The cup holder 431 is mounted on the second support plate 43 and is located near the outer end of the second support plate 43.

[0081] Specifically, the second driving component 45 is fixed to the support base 2 via the mounting plate 451. The second driving component 45 is used to drive the connecting shaft 42 to rotate. The first support plate 41 and the second support plate 43 are respectively sleeved on both ends of the connecting shaft 42. The connecting shaft 42 is used to drive the first support plate 41 and the second support plate 43 to rotate synchronously, so as to realize the synchronous movement of the pushing component 6 and the cup holder 431.

The water outlet 21 is connected to a water storage component 5. The brewing cup 7 of the automatic cup dispenser 3 enters the receiving cavity 432 through the cup-dropping opening 433. The automatic cup dispenser 3, the water outlet 21, and the two powder cartridges 1 are all arranged around the rotating component 4. In this embodiment, the support base 2 has a mounting hole 23, and the automatic cup dispenser 3 is fixed in the mounting hole 23. The automatic cup dispenser 3 can be purchased from the market and will not be described in detail here.

[0083] Specifically, the automatic cup dispenser 3 is used to store multiple brewing cups 7. By controlling the automatic cup dispenser 3, the brewing cups 7 can automatically fall into the cup holder 431 through the cup dropper 433. The brewing cups 7 on the cup holder 431 are rotated and moved by the rotating component 4. After the brewing cups 7 are filled with various nutritional powders, they move to the position of the water outlet 21. The water outlet 21 is connected to the water storage component 5, which includes a water tank 52, a water pipe, a heating element 51, and a water pump. The water tank 52, water pipe, water pump, and heating element 51 are connected (not shown in the figure). The water pipe is connected to the water outlet 21, so that hot water is discharged from the water outlet 21 for brewing. Then, the brewed brewing cups 7 are picked up through the pick-up port 434. The automatic cup dispenser 3, the water outlet 21, and the two powder cartridges 1 are all arranged around the rotating component 4. The brewing cups 7 complete a series of operations such as cup placement, powder collection, brewing, and pick-up through the cooperation of the rotating component 4 and the pushing component 6, thereby improving the automation of the brewing process.
