Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of coffee machines, and in particular relates to a coffee machine with a quick connection to a powder bin. Background Art
[0002] With the popularity of coffee drinks, coffee machines as a device for brewing coffee are becoming more and more popular among people. Specifically, coffee machines are generally used in conjunction with powder bins. However, in the coffee machines currently on the market, the powder bins are connected to the coffee machines in a rotationally fixed manner. A fixing block is provided at a predetermined position on the coffee machine, and a fixing groove matching the fixing block is provided at a predetermined position on the powder bin. When installing the powder bin, the user is required to hold the powder bin and rotate it on the installation position of the coffee machine so that the fixing groove is just aligned with the fixing block before the powder bin can be fixed to the coffee machine. This operation can easily cause an unstable connection between the powder bin and the coffee machine when the powder bin is not rotated into place, resulting in unstable installation. In addition, this connection method also has problems such as difficulty in finding a suitable initial rotation position and the powder bin handle is easily offset. Utility Model Content
[0003] (I) Purpose of the utility model
[0004] In order to overcome the above shortcomings, the purpose of the present utility model is to provide a coffee machine with a quick-connect powder bin, so as to solve the technical problem that the powder bin in the existing coffee machine is installed in a rotating fixed manner when connected to the coffee machine, which makes it easy for the powder bin to fall off due to failure to rotate into place, resulting in unstable installation of the powder bin.
[0005] (II) Technical solution
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solutions provided by this application are as follows:
[0007] A coffee machine with a quick-connect powder bin, comprising: a coffee machine body, a water outlet pipe extending vertically from the middle of the coffee machine body, a mounting groove symmetrically arranged on both sides, wherein a first end of the mounting groove is in an open state and a second end is in a sealed state, and a position near the second end in the mounting groove protrudes upward to form a stop block, and a powder bin, one side of which extends horizontally to form a positioning rod;
[0008] The present application provides a mounting groove on the coffee machine body and a limit block in the mounting groove, and a positioning rod on the powder bin. When the powder bin needs to be installed on the coffee machine body, the two ends of the powder bin positioning rod are respectively inserted from the first end of the corresponding mounting groove, and then the entire powder bin is pushed to move backward. When the positioning rod moves to the position of the limit block, the positioning rod is lifted upward so that the positioning rod bypasses the limit block and finally engages with the second end of the mounting groove to achieve the connection between the powder bin and the coffee machine body. The present application adopts a pushing method to push the powder bin to the end of the mounting groove to achieve the connection between the powder bin and the coffee machine body. The connection method is simple and quick, and the limit rod is not easy to fall out of the mounting groove under the limitation of the limit block, thereby ensuring the stability of the powder bin installation.
[0009] In some embodiments, a fixing buckle is provided on the powder bin, and the coffee machine body further comprises a swingable locking structure for engaging with the fixing buckle of the powder bin to lock the powder bin to the coffee machine body when the positioning rod is limited to the second end of the mounting slot;
[0010] The powder bin can be stably locked to the coffee machine body by engaging the locking structure with the fixing buckle, preventing the two ends of the positioning rod from bypassing the limit block and falling out of the installation slot under external force collision or misoperation. The powder bin can only be pulled forward after the locking structure is opened, which increases the stability and reliability of the coffee machine when it is working.
[0011] In some embodiments, the width of the mounting slot gradually decreases from the first end to the second end;
[0012] The width of the installation groove is set to a gradually decreasing shape, which makes it easier for the positioning rod to be placed in the installation groove. As the width of the installation groove decreases, the side wall of the installation groove will abut against the positioning rod after the positioning rod moves to the second end, preventing the positioning rod from shaking and causing unstable installation.
[0013] In some embodiments, the mounting slot is inclined in a direction from the first end to the second end;
[0014] The installation slot is set to an inclined structure to facilitate the powder bin to be quickly pushed into the second end of the installation slot.
[0015] In some embodiments, the limit block is an upwardly protruding arc-shaped structure;
[0016] The limiting block is set to an arc-shaped structure. Due to its smooth surface, it is convenient for the positioning rod to quickly pass through the positioning block and move to the second end of the installation groove.
[0017] In some embodiments, the locking structure includes: an elastic member abutting against a first mounting seat in the coffee machine body, a lock that abuts against the elastic member on one side and is hinged to a second mounting seat in the coffee machine body, and an unlocking button abutting against the other side of the lock, which can drive the lock to swing and engage or disengage with the fixing buckle to lock or unlock the powder bin.
