Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to a wine glass drying machine. Background Art
[0002] In order to better evaluate fine wine, different types of wine glasses are used to hold different types of wine, so as to achieve the purpose of observing color, smelling and evaluating. Common wine glasses on the market include: whiskey glasses for holding whiskey, red wine glasses for holding red wine, champagne glasses for holding champagne, etc.
[0003] After drinking, the wine glasses need to be cleaned. Existing wine glass cleaning methods include the following two methods: In the first wine glass cleaning method, first, put the wine glasses to be cleaned into the cup holder; then, put the wine glasses to be cleaned and the cup holder into the wine glass cleaning machine, and clean the wine glasses; finally, dry the water stains on the walls of the wine glasses. In the second wine glass cleaning method, the wine glasses to be cleaned and the cup holder are directly placed into a "box-type" wine glass cleaning machine (application number is 2021225806402, and the patent name is a utility model patent for cleaning instruments for liquor tasting and evaluation, which discloses one of the "box-type" wine glass cleaning machines) for cleaning and drying.
[0004] Regardless of whether the first or second wine glass cleaning method is used, the wine glass cleaning machine mainly uses hot water to clean the wine glasses. Take the whiskey glass as an example: when hot water is used to clean the whiskey glass, the whiskey glass can absorb the temperature of the hot water. Since the whiskey glass body is thicker, the whiskey glass after cleaning can use the temperature of the cup body itself to quickly dry the water stains on the wall of the cup.
[0005] However, the walls of red wine glasses and champagne glasses are thinner. Compared with wine glasses with thicker walls, it is difficult for the thin-walled wine glasses to retain heat after being washed with hot water. This will cause the thin-walled wine glasses to be unable to dry the water stains on the walls through the temperature of the cup body itself. In other words, when the first wine glass cleaning method is used to clean thin-walled wine glasses, the staff needs to use a dry towel to wipe the water stains on the wall of each thin-walled wine glass. The disadvantages of this method include: the water stains on the wall of each wine glass need to be wiped by the staff, a dry towel is needed to wipe the water stains on the wall of each wine glass, and towel fibers are easily left on the wall of the wine glass. When the second wine glass cleaning method is used to clean thin-walled wine glasses, since the distance between the air outlet and the thin-walled wine glass is too far, the thin-walled wine glass will dry the water stains on the wall of the thin-walled wine glass after the overall temperature inside the "box-type" wine glass cleaning machine rises to a predetermined value. The disadvantages of this method include: the overall heating speed inside the "box-type" wine glass cleaning machine is slow, the "box-type" wine glass cleaning machine consumes a lot of power, and the "box-type" wine glass cleaning machine occupies a large space.
[0006] In summary, the method of drying water stains on the wall of a wine glass needs to be improved, especially the method of drying water stains on the wall of a thin-walled wine glass needs to be improved. Utility Model Content
[0007] The problem to be solved by the utility model is to provide a wine glass dryer to optimize the drying method of water stains on the walls of wine glasses.
[0008] In order to solve the above problems, the utility model provides the following technical solutions:
[0009] Wine glass dryer includes:
[0010] A storage table, the top surface of which is used for placing wine glasses or a cup rack containing wine glasses;
[0011] A heating unit, the heating unit comprising at least one heater, each heater being arranged on the storage table, and each heater being provided with a heating channel and a heating element;
[0012] a fan unit, wherein the fan unit is arranged on the heater;
[0013] Among them, the top surface of the storage table is provided with a plurality of openings, and the end of the heating channel on each heater is connected to at least one opening. The wind generated by the fan unit during operation enters the heating channel. The wind in the heating channel is heated by the heating element and then discharged from the opening to the outside of the storage table.
[0014] In the utility model, the wine glass dryer includes a storage table, the top surface of which is used to place wine glasses or a cup rack with wine glasses, which means that the wine glass dryer to be protected by the utility model is a "flat-type" wine glass dryer.
[0015] Compared with a dry towel, the storage table of the utility model has the advantages of not needing to manually wipe the water stains on the wall of the wine glass, not needing to use a dry towel, and not leaving fibers on the wall of the wine glass. With such a design, the drying method of the water stains on the wall of the wine glass is optimized through the "flat-type" wine glass dryer.
[0016] In the utility model, the storage table has the following advantages compared to the "box-type" wine glass dryer: 1. Strong versatility; because the top surface of the storage table is an open plane, cup racks of different specifications can be placed on the top surface of the storage table, for example: a cup rack for placing sixteen wine glasses, a cup rack for placing twenty-five wine glasses, a cup rack for placing thirty-six wine glasses, etc. 2. Evaporating water stains on the walls of the wine glasses by hot air; placing the cup rack or the wine glasses on the top surface of the storage table, and reducing the distance between the opening and the wine glasses to achieve close-range, low wind speed, high temperature hot air to quickly dry the water stains on the walls of the wine glasses. 3. The "flat-plate" wine glass dryer is small in size and easy to carry. With such a design, the "flat-plate" wine glass dryer is used to optimize the drying method of water stains on the walls of the wine glasses.
[0017] Further, the fan unit includes at least one fan, each fan being provided on a heater;
[0018] And / or, each fan is provided with at least two heaters.
[0019] In the prior art, the "box-type" wine glass cleaning machine has a structure such as that disclosed in the utility model with application number 2021225806402: in order to take into account both the cleaning and drying functions, the wine glasses are usually placed in the middle of the wine glass cleaning machine, the water outlet nozzle is set at the top of the wine glass cleaning machine, and the air outlet nozzle is set at the bottom of the wine glass cleaning machine. Since the energy of the hot air will be lost in the air between the nozzle and the wine glass, when the wine glass is placed in the middle of the wine glass cleaning machine and the air outlet nozzle is set at the bottom of the wine glass cleaning machine, the "box-type" wine glass cleaning machine needs to increase the overall ambient temperature of the wine glass cleaning machine to dry the water stains on the wall of the wine glass.
[0020] In the utility model, since the "flat-plate type" wine glass dryer only needs to dry the water stains on the walls of the wine glasses, the distance between the wine glasses and the storage table is set as small as possible. When the distance between the wine glasses and the storage table is small enough, the fan can use the low wind speed to carry the heat generated by the heater to dry the water stains on the walls of the wine glasses. In other words, the "flat-plate type" wine glass dryer can transfer the heat generated by a heater to a wine glass through a fan, and the "flat-plate type" wine glass dryer can also transfer the heat generated by multiple heaters to multiple wine glasses through a fan. With such a design, the manufacturing cost of the "flat-plate type" wine glass dryer is reduced while ensuring that the "flat-plate type" wine glass dryer can quickly dry the water stains on the walls of the wine glasses.
[0021] Furthermore, each heater is provided with a detachable air guide cover, the air guide cover is provided with an air guide channel connected with the heating channel, and the air guide cover is located outside the storage table.
[0022] In the prior art, there are many types of wine glasses, such as red wine glasses, white wine glasses, and champagne glasses. Among them, the red wine glass has a handle at the bottom and is relatively round and wide at the top, the white wine glass has a handle at the bottom and is slimmer than the red wine glass at the top, and the champagne glass is straight and slender as a whole.
[0023] In the utility model, each heater can dry wine glasses of different types, sizes and heights by replacing different air guide covers. In addition, when the air guide cover is located outside the storage table, the air guide cover can be replaced outside the storage table. With such a design, when replacing the air guide cover, the storage table does not need to be disassembled.
[0024] Furthermore, the air guide channel is provided with an air guide inlet and an air guide outlet, the air guide inlet is adjacent to the heating channel, and the area of the air guide inlet is greater than the area of the air guide outlet;
[0025] And / or, when the air guide cover is detachably provided on the heater, the projection of the air guide cover on the horizontal plane is located within the projection of the rim of the wine glass on the horizontal plane.
[0026] In the utility model, the heat generated by the operation of the heater driven by the fan forms hot air, and the hot air in the heating channel enters the air guide channel through the air guide inlet. Since the area of the air guide inlet is greater than the area of the air guide outlet, when the hot air exits the air guide channel through the air guide outlet, according to the Bernoulli principle, the hot air flow rate at the air guide outlet is faster than the hot air flow rate at the air guide inlet; that is, the air guide cover accelerates the hot air entering its guide channel, and the accelerated hot air is sprayed to the bottom of the wine glass through the mouth of the wine glass. Under the obstruction of the bottom of the wine glass, the hot air flows along the inner wall around the wine glass to the outside of the wine glass.
[0027] Furthermore, the storage table includes a base and a filter, a plurality of openings are provided on the top surface of the base, the filter is provided on the base, when the filter is provided on the base, the filter and the base form a receiving cavity, at least part of the heating unit and the fan unit are provided in the receiving cavity, a filter channel is provided on the filter, and the filter channel and the heating channel can be connected through the receiving cavity. When at least part of the heating unit and the fan unit are provided in the receiving cavity, the air enters the receiving cavity through the filter channel of the filter. Such a design prevents dust and foreign matter from entering the wine glass through the wine glass dryer.
[0028] Furthermore, the wine glass dryer further comprises a power distribution board, the power distribution board is arranged in the accommodating cavity, and at least one heater is electrically connected to the power distribution board;
[0029] And / or, the wine glass dryer further comprises a fan adapter, the fan adapter is arranged in the accommodating cavity, and at least one fan is electrically connected to the fan adapter. In this design, the power distribution board provides power to the multiple heaters; and the fan adapter provides power to the multiple fans.
[0030] Furthermore, the heater comprises a shell, a cavity for accommodating the heating element is provided in the shell, the cavity is the heating channel, and an end of the heating channel may correspond to at least one opening.
[0031] Furthermore, a heat insulating gasket is sandwiched between the heater and the fan unit;
[0032] And / or, the heater further includes an overheat protector, which is arranged on the housing and protects each heater individually. With such a design, the heat insulating gasket prevents the heat generated by the heater from being directly transferred to the fan; when the fan is not working, the temperature inside the heater cannot be discharged in time, and at this time, the overheat protector works to avoid damage to the heater.
[0033] Furthermore, the heater is provided with a temperature sensor for detecting the real-time temperature of the heater;
[0034] The wine glass dryer also includes a processor, which is electrically connected to the temperature sensor and is used to obtain a real-time temperature value of the temperature sensor.
[0035] Further, the wine glass dryer also includes a timer electrically connected to the processor;

[0052] The following is an explanation and description of the technical scheme of the embodiment of the utility model in conjunction with the drawings of the embodiment of the utility model, but the following embodiment is only a preferred embodiment of the utility model, not all. Based on the embodiment in the implementation mode, other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative work are all within the protection scope of the utility model.
[0053] In the utility model, the wine glass dryer is a commercial wine glass dryer, which is mainly used in hotels, restaurants, bars and other places.
[0054] See also Figure 1 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 , wine glass dryer includes:
[0055] A storage table 1, the top surface 111 of the storage table 1 is used for placing wine glasses or a cup rack with wine glasses;
[0056] A heating unit (not marked), the heating unit comprises at least one heater 2, each heater 2 is arranged on the storage table 1, and each heater 2 is provided with a heating channel 221 and a heating element 21;
[0057] A fan unit 3, the fan unit 3 includes at least one fan 31, and at least one fan 31 is arranged on the heater 2;
[0058] Among them, the top surface 111 of the placement table 1 is provided with a plurality of openings 110, and the end of the heating channel 221 on each heater 2 is connected to at least one opening 110. The wind generated by the fan unit 3 during operation enters the heating channel 221. The wind in the heating channel 221 is heated by the heating element 21 and then discharged from the opening 110 to the outside of the placement table 1.
[0059] In the utility model, the wind speed generated by the fan 31 is 1.5m / s-10m / s, and the temperature generated by the heater 21 is 40℃-60℃; preferably, the wind speed generated by the fan 31 is 2.5m / s-3m / s, and the temperature generated by the heater 21 is 45℃-55℃. When drying wine glasses of different calibers, different heights, and different specifications, the wind speed and temperature can be dynamically adjusted to enable the wine glass dryer to speed up the drying of the wine glasses.
[0060] Of course, the wine glass dryer of the present invention does not discharge wine glasses dried at a fixed wind speed and a fixed temperature.
[0061] When each heater 2 is disposed on the storage table 1, the heater 2 may be located below the top surface 111 of the storage table 1, or the heater 2 may be located above the top surface 111 of the storage table 1. The meaning of "the end of the heating channel 221 on each heater 2 is connected to at least one opening 110" includes: 1. There is a space for gas flow between the heating channel 221 located below the top surface 111 of the storage table 1 and the opening 110; 2. There is a space for gas flow between the heating channel 221 located at least partially above the top surface 111 of the storage table 1 and the opening 110; 3. The heating channel 221 on each heater 2 passes through the opening 110, and the gas flowing through the heating channel 221 can pass through the opening 110. Since the wine glass dryer only needs to dry the water stains on the wall of the wine glass, the spacing between the wine glass and the storage table 1 is set as small as possible. When the spacing between the wine glass and the storage table 1 is small enough, the fan 31 can carry the heat generated by the heater 2 to dry the water stains on the wall of the wine glass by using a low wind speed. In the utility model, the wine glass dryer comprises a storage table 1, the top surface 111 of the storage table 1 is used to place wine glasses, or the top surface 111 of the storage table 1 is used to place a cup rack with wine glasses, so that the distance between the wine glasses and the wine glass dryer is reduced to the extreme.
[0062] In the utility model, placing wine glasses or cup holders on the storage table 1 has the following advantages: 1. Strong versatility; since the top surface 111 of the storage table 1 is an open plane, cup holders of different specifications can be placed on the top surface 111 of the storage table 1, for example: a cup holder for placing sixteen wine glasses, a cup holder for placing twenty-five wine glasses, a cup holder for placing thirty-six wine glasses, etc. 2. Evaporating water stains on the walls of the wine glasses by hot air; placing the cup holder or wine glasses on the top surface 111 of the storage table 1, and reducing the distance between the opening 110 and the wine glasses, so as to achieve close-range, low wind speed, high temperature hot air evaporation of water stains on the walls of the wine glasses. 3. The wine glass dryer is small in size and easy to carry.
[0063] Preferably, sixteen openings 110 or twenty-five openings 110 are provided on the top surface 111 of the storage table 1, and the wine glass dryer is mainly used for drying red wine glasses; thirty-six openings 110 are provided on the top surface 111 of the storage table 1, and the wine glass dryer is mainly used for drying champagne glasses.
[0064] See also Figure 7 Each heater 2 is provided with a detachable air guide cover 23, and the air guide cover 23 is provided with an air guide channel 231 connected with the heating channel 221. The air guide cover 23 is located outside the storage table 1. Each heater 2 can achieve drying of wine glasses of different types, sizes and heights by replacing different air guide covers 23: Figure 8 and Fig. 9 As shown, the air duct 23 is provided with an internal thread 235 on the wall of the air duct channel 231, and the outer wall of the housing 22 is provided with an external thread 222. When the air duct 23 cooperates with the external thread 222 through the internal thread 235, the air duct 23 is threadedly connected to the housing 22. In other embodiments of the utility model, the air duct can be connected with the housing by snap-fit; or, the air duct is fixedly connected with the housing by one or more of screws, nuts, and bolts; or, the air duct is connected with the housing by rivets.
[0065] It should be noted that the placement table 1 can exhaust hot air through the air guide cover 23 . However, in the case where the air guide cover 23 is not provided, the placement table 1 can also exhaust hot air through the opening 110 .
[0066] See also Figure 4 , Figure 6 and Fig. 9The housing 22 with external threads 222 passes through the opening 110 and extends to the outside of the storage table 1. The air guide channel 231 is provided with an air guide inlet 233 and an air guide outlet 232. The air guide inlet 233 is adjacent to the heating channel 221, and the area of the air guide inlet 233 is greater than the area of the air guide outlet 232. The fan 31 blows the heat generated by the heater 2 to form hot air. The hot air in the heating channel 221 enters the air guide channel 231 through the air guide inlet 233. Since the area of the air guide inlet 233 is greater than the area of the air guide outlet 232, when the hot air exits the air guide channel 231 through the air guide outlet 232, according to the Bernoulli principle, the hot air flow rate of the air guide outlet 232 is faster than that of the hot air flow rate of the air guide inlet 233.
[0067] In the utility model, the air guide cover 23 accelerates the hot air entering its guide channel 231. The accelerated hot air is sprayed to the bottom of the wine glass through the mouth of the wine glass. Under the obstruction of the bottom of the wine glass, the hot air flows along the inner wall of the wine glass to the outside of the wine glass. In other words, the water stains on the inner wall of the wine glass are directly dried by the hot air, and the hot air transfers the heat on the inner wall of the wine glass to the outer wall of the wine glass through the wine glass body, so as to dry the water stains on the outer wall of the wine glass.
[0068] from Figure 4 and Figure 7 It can be seen that the air guide cover 23 is in a frustum shape, that is, the outer wall 234 of the air guide cover 23 gradually decreases from bottom to top.
[0069] Preferably, when the air guide cover 23 is detachably provided on the heater 2, the projection of the air guide cover 23 on the horizontal plane is located within the projection of the wine glass mouth on the horizontal plane, that is, sixteen air guide covers 23 correspond to sixteen wine glass mouths one by one, twenty-five air guide covers 23 correspond to twenty-five wine glass mouths one by one, and thirty-six air guide covers 23 correspond to thirty-six wine glass mouths one by one. However, it is found through experiments that the projection of the air guide cover 23 on the horizontal plane is located outside the projection of the wine glass mouth on the horizontal plane, and water stains on the wine glass wall can also be dried. For example, sixteen air guide covers 23 are used to dry twenty-five wine glass mouths, and twenty-five air guide covers 23 are used to dry sixteen wine glass mouths.
[0070] Normally, the rim area of a champagne glass is smaller than the rim area of a red wine glass. Common rim diameters of champagne glasses include 39mm, 46mm, and 47mm. Therefore, the diameter of the air guide outlet 232 is ≤39mm. Preferably, the diameter of the air guide outlet 232 is ≤35mm. When the diameter of the air guide outlet 232 is ≤35mm, the gap between the air guide outlet 232 and the rim can be used to discharge hot air from the wine glass body out of the glass body.
[0071] See also Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 6The storage table 1 includes a base 11 and a filter 12. A plurality of openings 110 are provided on the top surface of the base 11, that is, the top surface of the base 11 is the top surface 111 of the storage table 1. The filter 12 is provided on the base 11. When the filter 12 is provided on the base 11, the filter 12 and the base 11 enclose a receiving chamber 10. At least part of the heating unit and the fan unit 3 are provided in the receiving chamber 10. A filter channel 121 is provided on the filter 12. The filter channel 121 and the heating channel 221 can be communicated through the receiving chamber 10. When at least part of the heating unit and the fan unit 3 are provided in the receiving chamber 10, the air enters the receiving chamber 10 through the filter channel 121 of the filter 12, that is, the flow path of the air in the wine glass dryer is: filter channel 121→receiving chamber 10→fan channel 3121→heating channel 221→guiding channel 231.
[0072] In the present invention, the storage table 1 is made of stainless steel, preferably, the base 11 is made of stainless steel, and the storage table 1 made of stainless steel can easily absorb the heat emitted from the heating plate 21, and this structure can dry the water stains dripping on the top surface 111 of the storage table 1. In addition, the storage table 1 made of stainless steel also has the advantage of being easy to clean.
[0073] Combination Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 It is not difficult to find that in the present invention, the fan 31 and the heating element 21 are located in the accommodating cavity 10 , part of the outer shell 22 is located in the accommodating cavity 10 , the remaining part of the outer shell 22 is located outside the accommodating cavity 10 , and the air guide cover 23 is located outside the accommodating cavity 10 .

[0078] In the present invention, a heat insulating gasket 8 is sandwiched between the heater 2 and the fan unit 3. Fig. 9 It can be seen that a heat insulating gasket 8 is sandwiched between the heating element 21 and the fan 31 to prevent the heat of the heating element 21 from being directly transferred to the fan 31 .
[0079] See also Figure 2 and Figure 7 The heater 2 also includes an overheat protector 24, which is disposed on the housing 22; when the fan 31 is not working, the temperature inside the heater 2 cannot be discharged in time. At this time, the overheat protector 24 works to avoid damage to the heater 2.
[0080] In the present invention, the fan unit 3 includes a plurality of fans 31, and the heating unit includes a plurality of heaters 2. Since a plurality of fans 31 can be arranged on one heater 2, a fan 31 can be arranged on a plurality of heaters 2, or a plurality of fans 31 can be arranged on a plurality of heaters 2, the connection relationship between the fan unit 3 and the heating unit includes the following three types: 1. Each fan 31 is arranged on a heater 2; Figure 2 It can be seen that the fan unit 3 includes sixteen fans 31, the heating unit includes sixteen heaters 2, and one heater 2 is installed on one fan 31. 2.
