[0029] An embodiment of the present application provides a beverage output device 100. The beverage output device 100 includes a carrier frame 110, a movable member 140, and a first sleeve group 120. The carrier frame 110 is provided with a moving track 117 extending along a preset direction X. The moving track 117 has a first end 101 close to the container 20 and a second end 102 away from the container 20 in the preset direction X. The movable member 140 is movably arranged on the moving track 117 along the preset direction X. The first sleeve group 120 includes at least two first sleeves 121 arranged in a hierarchical manner. The innermost first sleeve 121 or the outermost first sleeve 121 is relatively fixed to the carrier frame 110, and the remaining first sleeves 121 can be relatively moved in a direction close to or away from the container 20 to achieve telescoping. The first sleeve 121 is fixedly arranged as the first fixed sleeve 122, and the first sleeve 121 in the first sleeve group 120 farthest from the first fixed sleeve 122 is the first movable sleeve 123, which is relatively fixed to the movable member 140. The first movable sleeve 123 is formed with a beverage outlet 130 for discharging beverages to the container 20.

[0030] As can be seen from the above structure, the movable member 140 moves on the moving track 117, which can drive the first movable sleeve 123 to move along the preset direction X, thereby driving the first sleeve group 120 to move relatively in the direction close to or away from the container 20 to achieve telescopic movement. When the movable member 140 moves to the first end 101 of the moving track 117, the first sleeve group 120 is in an extended state; when the movable member 140 moves to the second end 102 of the moving track 117, the first sleeve group 120 is in a contracted state. The first sleeve group 120 moves relatively in the direction close to or away from the container 20 to achieve telescopic movement, which can drive the beverage outlet 130 to move close to or away from the container 20. When the user is taking a beverage, at this time, the first sleeve group 120 extends in the direction close to the container 20, which can shorten the distance between the beverage outlet 130 and the container 20, and thus when the beverage is input into the container 20, it is not easy to splash or overflow. After the user finishes taking the drink, the first sleeve group 120 can be retracted in the direction away from the container 20, so that the distance between the drink outlet 130 and the container 20 is increased, and the drink outlet 130 is reset. When the user takes out the container 20, the hand will not touch the drink outlet 130, thereby improving the user's operating experience.

[0031] The motion track 117 further has a first position 1011 and a second position 1012 located between the first end 101 and the second end 102 in the preset direction X, and the second position 1012 is closer to the second end 102 relative to the first position 1011. The position between the first end 101 and the second end 102 includes the first end 101 and the second end 102.

[0032] In some embodiments, the beverage dispensing device 100 further includes a first stopper 1173. The first stopper 1173 is disposed at the first position 1011 of the moving track 117. When the movable member 140 moves to the first position 1011, the movable member 140 abuts against the first stopper 1173, and the first sleeve group 120 moves relatively to a preset elongated state. The preset elongated state is the longest elongated state of the first sleeve group 120 set according to actual conditions. When the movable member 140 moves toward the first end 101 on the moving track 117 to the first position 1011, the movable member 140 abuts against and squeezes the first stopper 1173, and the power source driving the movable member 140 to move is blocked and stops working, and the first sleeve group 120 is maintained in the preset elongated state, so as to avoid excessive elongation of the first sleeve group 120 and structural damage.

[0033] In some embodiments, the beverage dispensing device 100 further includes a second stopper 1174. The second stopper 1174 is disposed at the second position 1012 of the moving track 117. When the movable member 140 moves to the second position 1012, the movable member 140 abuts against the second stopper 1174, and the first sleeve group 120 moves relatively to a preset contraction state. The preset contraction state is the shortest contraction state of the first sleeve group 120 set according to actual conditions. When the movable member 140 moves toward the second end 102 on the moving track 117 to the second position 1012, the movable member 140 abuts against and squeezes the second stopper 1174, and the power source driving the movable member 140 to move is blocked and stops working, and the first sleeve group 120 is maintained in the preset contraction state, so as to avoid structural damage caused by excessive contraction of the first sleeve group 120.

[0034] Of course, in some embodiments, the beverage output device 100 may also include a first limit block 1173 and a second limit block 1174 at the same time. When the movable member 140 moves to abut against the first limit block 1173, the first sleeve group 120 can move relatively to a preset extension state and maintain the preset extension state; when the movable member 140 moves to abut against the second limit block 1174, the first sleeve group 120 can move relatively to a preset contraction state and maintain the preset contraction state.

[0035] It should be noted that the preset contraction state is the shortest contraction state of the first sleeve group 120 set according to actual conditions. When the beverage is output, the first sleeve group 120 usually returns to the preset contraction state; the preset extension state is the longest extension state of the first sleeve group 120 set according to actual conditions. Before the first sleeve group 120 moves to the longest extension state, the first sleeve group 120 can also be controlled by other means to stop in other required extension states, so as to match the height of the container 20 for beverage output.

[0036] In the embodiment of the present application, a first limit block 1173 and / or a second limit block 1174 are provided, and a reliable physical limit structure can be used to ensure that the movable part 140 stops at a suitable first position 1011 and / or second position 1012, thereby allowing the first sleeve group 120 to relatively move to a desired preset extension state and / or preset contraction state, thereby avoiding structural damage caused by excessive extension or contraction of the first sleeve group 120, thereby ensuring the safety and reliability of the beverage output device 100.

[0037] In order to improve the compatibility of the beverage output device 100 with containers 20 of various heights, the telescopic stroke between the preset extension state and the preset contraction state of the first sleeve group 120 should be longer. Therefore, in some embodiments, when the beverage output device 100 includes the first stopper 1173, the first position 1011 can be set at the first end 101 of the moving track 117, that is, the first stopper 1173 is set at the first end 101 of the moving track 117. At this time, while ensuring that the movable member 140 does not leave the moving track 117, the movable member 140 can move to the first end 101 of the moving track 117 close to the container 20. Therefore, by setting the first position 1011 at the first end 101 of the moving track 117, not only the telescopic stability of the first sleeve group 120 can be ensured, but also the telescopic stroke of the first sleeve group 120 can be extended, thereby improving the performance of the beverage output device 100.

[0038] Similarly, in some embodiments, when the beverage output device 100 includes a second stopper 1174, the second position 1012 can be set at the second end 102 of the moving track 117, that is, the second stopper 1174 is set at the second end 102 of the moving track 117. At this time, while ensuring that the movable member 140 does not deviate from the moving track 117, the movable member 140 can be moved to the second end 102 of the moving track 117 away from the container 20. Therefore, by setting the second position 1012 at the second end 102 of the moving track 117, not only can the telescopic stability of the first sleeve group 120 be ensured, but also the telescopic stroke of the first sleeve group 120 can be extended, thereby improving the performance of the beverage output device 100.

[0039] Please continue reading Figure 4 , Figure 4 It is a schematic cross-sectional structure diagram of an embodiment of a beverage dispensing device of the present application.

[0040] The moving track 117 is provided with a sliding groove 1171 extending along the preset direction X. The movable member 140 includes a sliding block 142 and a lifting rack 145. The sliding block 142 is used to be slidably arranged in the sliding groove 1171. By sliding the sliding block 142 in the sliding groove 1171, the sliding limit function of the sliding block 142 can be achieved, so that the sliding block 142 can stably reciprocate along the preset direction X. The lifting rack 145 is extended along the preset direction X, and the lifting rack 145 is relatively fixed to the sliding block 142, and the lifting rack 145 is relatively fixed to the first movable sleeve 123.

[0041] In some embodiments, the first stopper 1173 may be disposed in the sliding groove 1171. When the first sleeve group 120 moves relatively to a preset extension state, the sliding block 142 abuts against the first stopper 1173. When the movable member 140 moves toward the first end 101 on the motion track 117 to the first position 1011, the sliding block 142 abuts against and squeezes the first stopper 1173, and the power source driving the sliding block 142 to move is blocked and stops working, and the first sleeve group 120 is maintained in the preset extension state, so as to avoid structural damage caused by excessive extension of the first sleeve group 120.

[0042] Similarly, the second stop block 1174 can be disposed in the sliding groove 1171. When the first sleeve group 120 moves relatively to a preset contracted state, the sliding block 142 abuts against the second stop block 1174. When the movable member 140 moves toward the second end 102 on the motion track 117 to the second position 1012, the sliding block 142 abuts against and squeezes the second stop block 1174, and the power source driving the sliding block 142 to move is blocked and stops working, and the first sleeve group 120 is maintained in the preset contracted state, so as to avoid structural damage caused by excessive contraction of the first sleeve group 120.

[0043] Please continue reading Figure 5 , Figure 5 It is a schematic diagram of the back structure of an embodiment of the beverage dispensing device of the present application, wherein the first sleeve group is in a partially extended state.

[0044] In some embodiments, the first stopper 1173 may be disposed on the outer wall of the motion track 117. When the first sleeve group 120 moves relatively to a preset extension state, the lifting rack 145 abuts against the first stopper 1173. When the movable member 140 moves toward the first end 101 on the motion track 117 to the first position 1011, the lifting rack 145 abuts against and squeezes the first stopper 1173, and the power source driving the lifting rack 145 to move is blocked and stops working, and the first sleeve group 120 is maintained in a preset extension state, so as to avoid structural damage caused by excessive extension of the first sleeve group 120.

[0045] Similarly, the second stopper 1174 can be disposed on the outer wall of the moving track 117. When the first sleeve group 120 moves relatively to a preset contracted state, the lifting rack 145 abuts against the second stopper 1174. When the movable member 140 moves toward the second end 102 on the moving track 117 to the second position 1012, the lifting rack 145 abuts against and squeezes the second stopper 1174, and the power source driving the lifting rack 145 to move is blocked and stops working, and the first sleeve group 120 is maintained in the preset contracted state, so as to avoid excessive contraction of the first sleeve group 120 and cause structural damage.

[0046] Furthermore, the beverage output device 100 further includes a gear 143 and a motor 144. The gear 143 meshes with the lifting rack 145, and the motor 144 drives the gear 143 to rotate, driving the lifting rack 145 to slide in a direction close to or away from the container 20, thereby driving the first sleeve group 120 to extend and retract.

[0047] Please continue reading Figure 3 Since the first limit block 1173 and the second limit block 1174 squeeze the movable member 140 to stop the movable member 140, the stop of the movable member 140 is achieved by the power source being locked. In order to improve the service life of the power source, the power source can also be controlled to stop working by an electric control method. In some embodiments, the beverage output device 100 further includes a first limit switch 118. The first limit switch 118 is disposed on the carrier frame 110. The first limit switch 118 is electrically connected to the motor 144. The lifting rack 145 is provided with a first convex plate 146. Before the first sleeve group 120 moves relatively to a preset extension state, the first convex plate 146 triggers the first limit switch 118. The first limit switch 118 sends a signal to the motor 144, the motor 144 is powered off, the gear 143 stops rotating, the lifting rack 145 and the sliding block 142 stop moving, and the first sleeve group 120 stops moving before relatively moving to a preset extension state, thereby preventing the first sleeve group 120 from being over-extended and causing structural damage, while increasing the life of the motor 144 and ensuring the safety and reliability of the beverage output device 100.

[0048] The first limit switch 118 can be fixed to the carrying frame 110 by means of a positioning column and a screw, and the installation is simple and reliable.

[0049] Therefore, the first limit switch 118 and the first limit block 1173 play at least a dual protective role. When the first sleeve assembly 120 moves relatively to a state close to the preset extension state, the first convex plate 146 first contacts the first limit switch 118, and the motor 144 is controlled to stop working through an electric control method, and the movable member 140 stops moving. When the first limit switch 118 fails, the first limit switch 118 itself and the first limit block 1173 both play a role of physical limit, and by squeezing the movable member 140, the motor 144 is blocked and stops working, and the movable member 140 can stop moving.

[0050] It should be noted that the positions of the first limit switch 118 and the first protrusion 146 can be adjusted according to actual conditions. When the first protrusion 146 triggers the first limit switch 118, the first sleeve group 120 should have moved relatively to a state close to the preset extension state, thereby ensuring the telescopic stroke of the first sleeve group 120.

[0051] Similarly, in some embodiments, the beverage dispensing device 100 further includes a second limit switch 119. The second limit switch 119 is disposed on the carrier frame 110. The second limit switch 119 is electrically connected to the motor 144. The lifting rack 145 is provided with a second convex plate 147. Before the first sleeve group 120 moves relatively to a preset contraction state, the second convex plate 147 triggers the second limit switch 119. The second limit switch 119 sends a signal to the motor 144, the motor 144 is powered off, the gear 143 stops rotating, the lifting rack 145 and the sliding block 142 stop moving, and the first sleeve group 120 stops moving before the relative movement to the preset contraction state, thereby avoiding structural damage caused by excessive contraction of the first sleeve group 120, and at the same time increasing the life of the motor 144, thereby ensuring the safety and reliability of the beverage dispensing device 100.

[0052] The second limit switch 119 can be fixed to the carrying frame 110 by means of a positioning column and a screw, and the installation is simple and reliable.

[0053] Therefore, the second limit switch 119 and the second limit block 1174 play at least a dual protective role. When the first sleeve assembly 120 moves relatively to a state close to the preset contraction state, the second convex plate 147 first contacts the second limit switch 119, and the motor 144 is controlled to stop working through an electric control method, and the movable member 140 stops moving. When the second limit switch 119 fails, the second limit switch 119 itself and the second limit block 1174 both play a role of physical limit, and by squeezing the movable member 140, the motor 144 is blocked and stops working, and the movable member 140 can stop moving.

[0054] It should be noted that the positions of the second limit switch 119 and the second protrusion 147 can be adjusted according to actual conditions. When the second protrusion 147 triggers the second limit switch 119, the first sleeve group 120 should have moved relatively to a state close to the preset contraction state, thereby ensuring the telescopic stroke of the first sleeve group 120.

[0055] In other embodiments, the beverage dispensing device 100 may further include a screw (not shown in the figure) and a motor (not shown in the figure). The screw is threadedly connected to the sliding block 142. The motor 144 drives the screw to rotate, driving the sliding block 142 to reciprocate along the first direction A approaching or moving away from the container 20, thereby driving the first sleeve group 120 to achieve extension and retraction.

[0056] In some embodiments, the carrier frame 110 has a front side 111 and a back side 112 that are arranged opposite to each other, and the front side 111 of the carrier frame 110 is used to face the user. The first sleeve group 120 is located on the front side 111. The motion track 117 is arranged on the back side 112 of the carrier frame 110. The movable member 140 is located on the back side 112. The carrier frame 110 is also provided with a slot 115 for the movable member 140 and the first movable sleeve 123 to be relatively connected and moved. The movable member 140 moves on the back side 112 of the carrier frame 110, and drives the first sleeve group 120 located on the front side 111 of the carrier frame 110 to extend and retract. The slot 115 allows the movable member 140 and the first movable sleeve 123 to be connected to each other and moved up and down, and the overall layout of the beverage output device 100 is reasonable and beautiful.

[0057] The beverage output device 100 further includes a delivery pipe 150 and a supply pipe 160. The delivery pipe 150 is located on the front side 111 of the carrier frame 110, which is convenient for outputting beverages. The output end of the delivery pipe 150 is relatively fixed to the first movable sleeve 123, and the output end of the delivery pipe 150 is connected to the beverage output port 130. The delivery pipe 150 is used to provide a channel for outputting beverages. The supply pipe 160 is located on the back side 112 of the carrier frame 110, that is, inside the beverage output device 100, and the supply pipe 160 is used to connect to the beverage source. One end of the supply pipe 160 is relatively fixed to the movable part 140, and is used to connect to the input end of the delivery pipe 150, and the other end of the supply pipe 160 is fixedly arranged on the back side 112 of the carrier frame 110. The supply pipe 160 can output the beverage located on the back side 112 of the carrier frame 110 to the delivery pipe 150 located on the front side of the carrier frame 110, and finally output through the beverage output port 130.

[0058] Since the supply tube 160 is located on the back side 112 of the carrier frame 110, the supply tube 160 is in an unconstrained free state. When the movable part 140 moves, the supply tube 160 may have excessive friction or excessive bending. The supply tube 160 may also affect the movement of the movable part 140. In the embodiment of the present application, since one end of the supply tube 160 is relatively fixed to the movable part 140, and the other end of the supply tube 160 is fixedly arranged on the back side 112 of the carrier frame 110, the positions of the two ends of the supply tube 160 are fixed, which can play a certain role in constraining the displacement and shape of the supply tube 160. At this time, since the positions of the two ends of the supply tube 160 are relatively fixed, the supply tube 160 can adapt to the movement of the movable part 140 through appropriate displacement and deformation, avoiding excessive friction or excessive bending of the supply tube 160, improving the operating stability of the movable part 140 and the service life of the supply tube 160, and ensuring the reliability of the beverage output device 100.

[0059] It should be noted that the slot 115 is also used for the delivery pipe 150 and the supply pipe 160 to be connected to each other and to move up and down with the movable member 140. Specifically, the delivery pipe 150 and the supply pipe 160 can be connected to each other. The delivery pipe 150 can pass through the carrier frame 110 to be connected to the supply pipe 160, or the supply pipe 160 can pass through the carrier frame 110 to be connected to the delivery pipe 150.

[0060] Of course, in other embodiments, the delivery pipe 150 and the supply pipe 160 can be integrally formed. In this case, the delivery pipe 150 and the supply pipe 160 are the same pipe.

[0061] In some embodiments, the supply pipe 160 includes a first pipe section 161, a second pipe section 162, and a third pipe section 163 connected in sequence. The first pipe section 161 is relatively fixed to the movable member 140 and is connected to the input end of the delivery pipe 150. The third pipe section 163 is fixedly disposed on the carrier frame 110. The second pipe section 162 takes the end connected to the first pipe section 161 as the starting point, and the second pipe section 162 first extends in a direction away from the end of the first pipe section 161, and then gradually bends to extend in a direction toward the third pipe section 163 and is connected to the third pipe section 163.

[0062] By setting the first pipe section 161 to be relatively fixed with the movable member 140, one end of the supply pipe 160 is relatively fixed with the movable member 140, and by fixing the third pipe section 163 on the back side 112 of the carrier frame 110, the other end of the supply pipe 160 is relatively fixed with the carrier frame 110. The second pipe section 162 connects the first pipe section 161 and the third pipe section 163 in a gradually curved form, and the second pipe section 162 has a reasonable trend to avoid excessive bending. Since the third pipe section 163 is fixed in position, when the movable member 140 drives the first sleeve group 120 to extend and retract, the first pipe section 161 moves with the movable member 140, and the supply pipe 160 can match the displacement of the first pipe section 161 caused by the extension and retraction of the first sleeve group 120 by changing the bending shape of the second pipe section 162, and the supply pipe 160 will not be excessively bent during the movement, thereby ensuring the reliability of the beverage output device 100.

[0063] Specifically, the first pipe section 161 and the third pipe section 163 may be straight lines, and the second pipe section 162 may be U-shaped. The beverage output path formed by the supply pipe 160 is reasonable, which is conducive to the smooth output of the beverage.

[0064] In some embodiments, a first fixing member 141 is provided on a side of the movable member 140 facing away from the carrier frame 110. The first fixing member 141 includes at least two first buckles 1411 spaced apart along the first direction A. The first pipe section 161 is snapped into the first buckle 1411. By providing at least two first buckles 1411 spaced apart along the first direction A, the first pipe section 161 can be fully fixed to the movable member 140. The first pipe section 161 is a straight pipe section extending along the first direction A. By providing the first buckle 1411 to fix the first pipe section 161, the installation and maintenance of the first pipe section 161 are convenient and quick.

[0065] In some embodiments, a second fixing member 113 is provided on the back side 112 of the carrier frame 110. The second fixing member 113 includes at least two second buckles 1131 spaced apart along the second direction B. The third pipe segment 163 is snapped into the second buckle 1131. By providing at least two second buckles 1131 spaced apart along the second direction B, the third pipe segment 163 can be fully fixed to the movable member 140. The third pipe segment 163 is a straight pipe segment extending along the second direction B. By providing the second buckle 1131 to fix the third pipe segment 163, the installation and maintenance of the third pipe segment 163 are convenient and quick.

[0066] The first direction A and the second direction B may be arranged parallel to each other, or the first direction A and the second direction B may be arranged to intersect each other, which may be specifically determined according to the relative position relationship between the actual beverage source and the delivery tube 150 .

[0067] In order to further prevent the supply pipe 160 from being worn and bent, in some embodiments, the beverage output device 100 includes a first protective sleeve 164. The first protective sleeve 164 is sleeved outside the second pipe section 162. Since only the second pipe section 162 in the supply pipe 160 adapts to the rise and fall of the first pipe section 161 by bending during the process of the movable member 140 driving the first sleeve group 120 to extend and retract, the first protective sleeve 164 is sleeved outside the second pipe section 162 to protect the second pipe section 162. On the one hand, the first protective sleeve 164 prevents the second pipe section 162 from excessively rubbing against other structures during the process of moving with the movable member 140; on the other hand, the first protective sleeve 164 can maintain a certain shape, prevent the second pipe section 162 from being excessively bent, thereby maintaining the shape of the second pipe section 162 and ensuring smooth output of the beverage. By providing the first protective sleeve 164, the supply pipe 160 can be protected, and wear or excessive bending can be reduced or prevented, thereby increasing the service life of the supply pipe 160.

[0068] The first protective sleeve 164 may be a spring or a braided tube, which may be sleeved outside the second pipe section 162 to protect the second pipe section 162 .

[0069] In other embodiments, the first protective sleeve 164 may be entirely sleeved outside the supply pipe 160, that is, sleeved outside the first pipe section 161, the second pipe section 162, and the third pipe section 163 of the supply pipe 160. The first protective sleeve 164 can protect the supply pipe 160 as a whole, and fully prevent the supply pipe 160 from being bent or worn.

[0070] Please continue reading Figure 6 , Figure 6 1 is a partial structural schematic diagram of an embodiment of a beverage output device of the present application. In some embodiments, the beverage output port 130 includes a first-category beverage ingredient output port 131 and a second-category beverage ingredient output port 132. The first-category beverage ingredient output port 131 is used to output the first-category beverage ingredients. The first-category beverage ingredient output port 131 is formed at the bottom of the first movable sleeve 123. A delivery channel 124 is formed in the first sleeve group 120, and the delivery channel 124 is connected to the first-category beverage ingredient output port 131. The bottom end of the first movable sleeve 123 extends outward and forms a second-category beverage ingredient output port 132, and the second-category beverage ingredient output port 132 is used to output the second-category beverage ingredients. The delivery pipe 150 is located outside the first sleeve group 120, and the output end of the delivery pipe 150 is connected to the second-category beverage ingredient output port 132.

[0071] The first sleeve group 120 can not only drive the delivery pipe 150 and the second-category beverage ingredient output port 132 to rise and fall, but also form a delivery channel 124 inside, and form a first-category beverage ingredient output port 131 at the bottom of the first movable sleeve 123, so that at least two types of beverage ingredients can be output; during the output of the first-category beverage ingredients, the first movable sleeve 123 extends to the end close to the container 20, and then the first-category beverage ingredient output port 131 can be close to the container 20, so that the first-category beverage ingredients will not splash or overflow when flowing into the container 20, thereby improving the user's operating experience.

[0072] In addition, the delivery tube 150 is arranged outside the first sleeve group 120, and the delivery channel 124 is formed inside the first sleeve group 120, so that the delivery channel 124 and the delivery tube 150 do not interfere with each other, so as to avoid the first type of beverage ingredients from hitting the delivery tube 150 when moving in the delivery channel 124, causing the delivery tube 150 to rupture, thereby avoiding affecting the output of the second type of beverage ingredients from the second type of beverage ingredient output port 132. The delivery tube 150 is arranged outside the first sleeve group 120, so that the delivery channel 124 and the delivery tube 150 are separated, thereby ensuring that the beverage output device 100 can ensure the smooth outflow of the first type of beverage ingredients and the second type of beverage ingredients.

[0073] Among them, the first category of beverage ingredients includes ingredients with fixed shapes, elastic ingredients, and ingredients with poor fluidity, such as ice cubes, crushed ice, red beans, mung beans, peanuts, pearls in pearl milk tea, coconut flakes, taro balls, milk jelly, jelly, tortoise jelly, fruit puree, taro puree, ice cream, puffed foods, baked goods, etc.; the second category of beverage ingredients includes ingredients with high fluidity, such as water, juice, milk, coffee, cola, soy milk, etc., which are not limited here.

[0074] It should be noted that the user can output the first category of beverage ingredients from the first category of beverage ingredient output port 131 according to their own needs; or the user can output the second category of beverage ingredients from the second category of beverage ingredient output port 132 according to their own needs; or the user can output the first category of beverage ingredients and the second category of beverage ingredients from the first category of beverage ingredient output port 131 and the second category of beverage ingredient output port 132 at the same time according to their own needs, which is not limited here. In addition, the beverage output device 100 can be a water dispenser, a beverage machine, or a first category of beverage ingredient box and other equipment, which is not limited here.

[0075] It should be noted that the outermost first sleeve 121 in the first sleeve group 120 may be the first fixed sleeve 122 , and the other first sleeves 121 may be relatively movable in a direction approaching or moving away from the container 20 to achieve extension and retraction.

[0076] Alternatively, the innermost first sleeve 121 in the first sleeve group 120 may be the first fixed sleeve 122, and the other first sleeves 121 may be relatively movable in the direction of approaching or moving away from the container 20 to achieve telescopic expansion. At this time, a conveying channel 124 is formed in the first sleeve group 120. The inner diameter of the conveying channel 124 gradually increases in the direction approaching the first-category beverage ingredient output port 131. When the user takes a drink, the first-category beverage ingredient moves in the conveying channel 124 and is output from the first-category beverage ingredient output port 131, and the inner diameter of the conveying channel 124 gradually increases in the direction approaching the first-category beverage ingredient output port 131. At this time, when the drink moves in the conveying channel 124, it is not easy to get stuck.

[0077] Please continue reading Figure 7 , Figure 7It is a front structural schematic diagram of another embodiment of the beverage output device of the present application. In some other embodiments, the beverage output device 100 also includes a second sleeve group 170. Among them, the second sleeve group 170 is sleeved on the outside of the first sleeve group 120. The second sleeve group 170 includes at least two second sleeves 171 that are sleeved in layers. The second sleeve 171 located at the outermost side or the second sleeve 171 located at the innermost side is relatively fixed to the supporting frame 110. The remaining second sleeves 171 are relatively movable in the direction of approaching or moving away from the container 20 to achieve telescopic movement. The delivery pipe 150 is located between the first sleeve group 120 and the second sleeve group 170, and extends from between the first movable sleeve 123 and the second movable sleeve 173 to the outside of the second movable sleeve 173 to communicate with the supply pipe 160. The second sleeve group 170 can play a certain shielding and protective role for the first sleeve group 120 and other structural parts such as the conveying pipe 150 located between the first sleeve group 120 and the second sleeve group 170, making the overall appearance more beautiful. At the same time, it can also extend the service life of the first sleeve group 120 and the conveying pipe 150 and other structural parts located between the first sleeve group 120 and the second sleeve group 170.

[0078] Specifically, the second sleeve 171 fixed relatively to the first fixed sleeve 122 is the second fixed sleeve 172, and the second sleeve 171 farthest from the second fixed sleeve 172 in the second sleeve group 170 is the second movable sleeve 173. The second movable sleeve 173 is fixed relatively to the first movable sleeve 123, and the bottom end of the first movable sleeve 123 can extend outward to connect to the second movable sleeve 173. When the user takes the first category of beverage ingredients and / or the second category of beverage ingredients, the second movable sleeve 173 remains relatively fixed to the first fixed sleeve 122 and moves toward the end close to the container 20. Since the first sleeve 121 and the second sleeve 171 are both arranged in layers, the other second sleeves 171 located between the second fixed sleeve 172 and the second movable sleeve 173, and the other first sleeves 121 located between the first fixed sleeve 122 and the first movable sleeve 123 will also move toward the end close to the container 20. At this time, the distance between the first sleeve group 120 and the second sleeve group 170 and the container 20 is reduced, and the first category beverage ingredient output port 131 and / or the second category beverage ingredient output port 132 are close to the container 20. Therefore, when the first category beverage ingredients and / or the second category beverage ingredients are output, the splashing or overflowing of the first category beverage ingredients and / or the second category beverage ingredients can be improved, and the user experience is better.

[0079] Since the second movable sleeve 173 is relatively fixed to the first movable sleeve 123, it is only necessary to drive the second movable sleeve 173 or the first movable sleeve 123 to move in order to drive both to move synchronously. The extension and retraction of the first sleeve group 120 and the second sleeve group 170 are more stable and synchronous, and the control is more convenient and quick.

[0080] Among them, the outermost second sleeve 171 in the second sleeve group 170 is relatively fixed to the first fixed sleeve 122; the innermost second sleeve 171 of the second sleeve group 170 is relatively fixed to the first movable sleeve 123; the remaining second sleeves 171 can be relatively moved in the direction of approaching or moving away from the container 20 to achieve extension and contraction. The second sleeve group 170 has a structure that is larger at the top and smaller at the bottom.

[0081] Of course, in some other embodiments, the innermost second sleeve 171 in the second sleeve group 170 can be relatively fixed to the first fixed sleeve 122; the outermost second sleeve 171 of the second sleeve group 170 can be relatively fixed to the first movable sleeve 123; the remaining second sleeves 171 can be relatively movable in the direction of approaching or moving away from the container 20 to achieve extension and retraction. At this time, the second sleeve group 170 has a small upper and large lower structure.

[0082] It should be noted that the first sleeve group 120 may include two first sleeves 121, three first sleeves 121, four first sleeves 121, or more first sleeves 121. The second sleeve group 170 may include two second sleeves 171, three second sleeves 171, four second sleeves 171, or more second sleeves 171. The number of first sleeves 121 included in the first sleeve group 120 may be the same as or different from the number of second sleeves 171 included in the second sleeve group 170, as long as the first sleeve group 120 and the second sleeve group 170 have the same extendibility.

[0083] Since the second movable sleeve 173 is sleeved on the outside of the first movable sleeve 123, the first movable sleeve 123 can be fixed by the second movable sleeve 173 and the movable member 140. The second movable sleeve 173 can be driven to move by the movable member 140, thereby driving the relatively fixed first movable sleeve 123 to move. The first sleeve group 120 and the second sleeve group 170 can be extended and retracted, and the beverage outlet 130 can be raised and lowered.

[0084] In addition, the second movable sleeve 173 and the movable member 140 can be relatively fixed by means of a snap-fit ​​structure or fasteners such as bolts.

[0085] In some embodiments, the beverage output device 100 further includes a carrier 114. The carrier 114 is disposed at the bottom of the carrier frame 110. The carrier 114 is used to support the container 20. The container 20 is used to receive beverages. The beverage output port 130 is located above the carrier 114. When the user is taking the first category of beverage ingredients and / or the second category of beverage ingredients, the container 20 is placed on the carrier 114, and the first category of beverage ingredients and / or the second category of beverage ingredients are output through the beverage output port 130, so that the first category of beverage ingredients and / or the second category of beverage ingredients can be quickly output, and the user does not need to hold the container 20, and the entire process of taking the first category of beverage ingredients and / or the second category of beverage ingredients can be more labor-saving.

[0086] It should be noted that the terms "horizontal", "vertical" and the like do not mean that the components are required to be absolutely horizontal or vertical, but can be slightly tilted; the terms "parallel" and "vertical" and the like do not mean that the components are absolutely parallel or vertical, but can form a certain angle deviation. For example, "horizontal" only means that its direction is more horizontal than "vertical", and does not mean that the structure must be completely horizontal, but can be slightly tilted. In addition, the terms "center", "longitudinal", "lateral", "length", "width", "thickness", "up", "down", "front", "back", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inside", "outside", "clockwise", "counterclockwise" and the like indicate the orientation or position relationship based on the orientation or position relationship shown in the drawings, or the orientation or position relationship in which the product of the present application is usually placed when used, which is only for the convenience of describing the embodiments of the present application and simplifying the description, and does not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore cannot be understood as a limitation to the present application.

[0087] It is to be understood that the meaning of "plurality" herein is at least two, such as two, three, etc., unless there is a special limitation. In addition, the terms "including" and "having" and any variations thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusions.
