Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of capsule tea drinking machines, in particular to a capsule cup holder which can effectively prevent soup residue and odor contamination. Background Art

[0002] The capsule tea machine is a new type of tea drinking equipment. By putting the pre-packaged capsule into the equipment, the equipment can automatically brew tea, which is very convenient. The capsule is usually made of plastic, and a packaging aluminum foil is set on one side of the surface. Figure 3 As shown, after the capsule is fixed to the device, the capsule enters the cup holder under the action of the upper cover, and a number of microneedles in the cup holder pierce the aluminum foil, so that the liquid in the capsule can flow out from the bottom of the cup holder. However, the microneedles of the existing device are arranged on a horizontal plate, and there is a certain distance between the horizontal plate and the cup holder. Therefore, part of the liquid will remain between the cup holder and the horizontal plate after flowing out, which will cause cross-flavor when brewing different beverages next time, and it is also difficult to clean. Therefore, a capsule cup holder which can effectively avoid soup residue and cross-flavor is proposed. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a capsule cup holder which can effectively avoid soup residue and odor contamination, so as to solve the problems raised in the above-mentioned background technology.

[0004] In order to solve the above technical problems, the utility model provides the following technical solutions: a capsule cup holder that effectively avoids soup residue and cross-flavor, comprising a bracket, the bracket is a plate-shaped structure, one end of the bracket is fixedly connected to a baffle, the other end of the bracket is penetrated by a through groove, the inner surface of the through groove is clamped with the cup holder, the upper surface of the bracket is rotatably connected to an upper cover, the surface of the upper cover is fixedly connected to a connecting tube for fixing the capsule, a top block is penetrated by the lower side wall of the cup holder, the top block is conical, and a connecting hole is provided on the surface of the top block, and a through hole connected to the connecting hole is provided at the bottom of the top block.

[0005] According to the above technical solution, the lower side wall of the cup holder is funnel-shaped.

[0006] According to the above technical solution, the cup holder is made of stainless steel in one piece.

[0007] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects achieved by the utility model are as follows: the utility model provides a bracket, a through groove is provided on the bracket, a cup holder is installed in the through groove, an upper cover is provided on the bracket, and an upper cover for fixing the capsule is provided on the upper cover. After the capsule enters the cup holder under the action of the upper cover, the top block inside the cup holder pierces the aluminum foil of the capsule, and the liquid in the capsule can flow out through the through hole at the bottom of the top block to complete the brewing. The traditional equipment has multiple microneedles, so the residue is serious. The present equipment adopts a single top block, so the liquid residue is reduced. At the same time, there is no separate space inside the cup holder, so the next time the brewing is avoided. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0015] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0016] See also Figure 1-5 The utility model provides a technical solution: a capsule cup holder that effectively avoids soup residue and odor contamination, comprising a bracket 1, such as Figure 1 As shown, the bracket 1 is a plate-like structure, one end of the bracket 1 is fixedly connected with a baffle 2, the baffle 2 is an arc-shaped plate-like structure, the bracket 1 is movably connected to the tea drinking machine, the bracket 1 is inserted into the internal baffle 2 of the device and can fit with the outer surface of the tea drinking machine, and the bracket 1 can be pulled out through the baffle 2, and the other end of the bracket 1 is penetrated by a through groove 3, the inner surface of the through groove 3 is clamped with a cup holder 4, the upper surface of the bracket 1 is rotatably connected with an upper cover 5, and the surface of the upper cover 5 is fixedly connected with a connecting tube 6 for fixing capsules, as shown in FIG. Figure 2As shown, after the upper cover 5 is closed, the connecting tube 6 is located inside the cup holder 4, the capsule is inserted into the connecting tube 6, the aluminum foil of the capsule is located at the bottom, and a top block 7 is provided through the lower side wall of the cup holder 4. The top block 7 is conical, and a connecting hole 8 is provided on the surface of the top block 7. A through hole 9 connected to the connecting hole 8 is provided at the bottom of the top block 7. After the capsule enters the cup holder 4 under the action of the upper cover 5, the top block 7 punctures the aluminum foil of the capsule, and the liquid in the capsule flows into the through hole 9 through the connecting hole 8 and flows out from the bottom of the cup holder 4. Figure 4 As shown, a conventional cup holder 4 is provided with a horizontal plate inside, and a plurality of microneedles are provided on the upper surface of the horizontal plate for piercing the capsule aluminum foil. In this way, liquid will remain on the microneedles, making it difficult to clean. At the same time, liquid will remain between the cup holder 4 and the horizontal plate, causing odor contamination. The solution adopts a single top block 7 to pierce the capsule aluminum foil, which is easy to clean. At the same time, there is no space inside the cup holder 4 where liquid will remain, preventing odor contamination during the next brewing.

[0017] Specifically, if Figure 5 As shown, the lower side wall of the cup holder 4 is funnel-shaped. After being punctured by the top block 7, the liquid flowing into the cup holder 4 will also flow out under the action of the funnel-shaped lower wall. At the same time, when cleaning, it is only necessary to inject water into the cup holder 4 to complete the cleaning, which prevents liquid residue and facilitates the cleaning of the equipment.

[0018] Specifically, the cup holder 4 is made of stainless steel in one piece, and the one-piece molding method avoids the possibility of residual liquid in the cup holder 4, and also facilitates the cleaning of the device.

[0019] When the utility model is used, the capsule is inserted into the connecting tube 6 and fixed. After the upper cover 5 is closed, the connecting tube 6 enters the cup holder 4, the capsule enters the cup holder 4, the top block 7 inside the cup holder 4 pierces the capsule aluminum foil, and the liquid in the capsule enters the cup holder 4. Under the action of the funnel-shaped side wall, the liquid enters through the connecting hole 8 and flows out from the through hole 9.
