[0047] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all of the embodiments. The following description of at least one exemplary embodiment is actually only illustrative and is by no means intended to limit the present application and its application or use. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without carrying out creative work are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0048] Technologies, methods, and equipment known to ordinary technicians in the relevant art may not be discussed in detail, but where appropriate, the technologies, methods, and equipment should be considered as part of the specification.

[0049] In the description of the present application, it should be understood that the directions or positional relationships indicated by directional words such as "front, back, up, down, left, right", "lateral, vertical, perpendicular, horizontal" and "top, bottom" are usually based on the directions or positional relationships shown in the drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing the present application and simplifying the description. Unless otherwise specified, these directional words do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific direction or be constructed and operated in a specific direction, and therefore cannot be understood as limiting the scope of protection of the present application; the directional words "inside and outside" refer to the inside and outside relative to the contours of each component itself.

[0050] In the description of the present application, it should be understood that the use of terms such as "first" and "second" to limit components is only for the convenience of distinguishing the corresponding components. Unless otherwise stated, the above terms have no special meaning and therefore cannot be understood as limiting the scope of protection of the present application.

[0051] In addition, the technical features involved in the different embodiments of the present application described below can be combined with each other as long as they do not conflict with each other.

[0052] Since beverages usually contain substances such as sugar and protein, the pipes through which beverages flow in drinking equipment (called beverage pipes) are prone to become sticky and dirty, and breed bacteria. If they are not effectively handled, the drinking taste may be affected, and may even cause hygiene and safety problems and damage health.

[0053] In order to achieve effective cleaning of a beverage pipeline, the present application provides a drinking device.

[0054] Figure 1-Figure 12 The structure and working process of the drinking device of the present application are shown exemplarily.

[0055] See also Figure 1-Figure 12 The drinking device 100 provided in the present application includes a body 1, a first driving mechanism 21 and a cleaning chamber 3. An outlet 14 and a beverage port 12 are provided on the body 1. The outlet 14 is used for liquid to flow out. The beverage port 12 is used to connect a container 200 containing a beverage and is connected to the outlet 14 through a first tube 24. It can be seen that the first tube 24 is a beverage pipeline. The first driving mechanism 21 is arranged on the first tube 24, and is used to drive the beverage to flow from the beverage port 12 to the outlet 14. The cleaning chamber 3 is provided with a medicine inlet 31 for the medicine to enter, and the cleaning chamber 3 is used to hold liquid for dissolving the medicine. The first driving mechanism 21 drives the liquid dissolved with the medicine in the cleaning chamber 3 to flow to the first tube 24 to clean the first tube 24. Among them, the medicine is a product that can remove beverage ingredients, and can be in the form of sheets (i.e. tablets) or powder, etc.

[0056] Based on the above configuration, the first tube 24 can be cleaned with a liquid containing a drug, so that the first tube 24 can be cleaned with a drug. Compared with the water cleaning method without a drug, the cleaning method with a drug can use the drug to more thoroughly remove sugar and protein in the residual beverage, thereby achieving a deeper cleaning of the first tube 24, and thus having a better cleaning effect.

[0057] It can be seen that by providing the cleaning cabin 3, the beverage pipeline can be effectively cleaned, making the beverage pipeline cleaner and more sanitary, and preventing the dirty problem of the beverage pipeline from affecting the drinking taste or damaging health.

[0058] In an embodiment of the present application, the liquid used to dissolve the agent in the cleaning chamber 3 can have various sources, for example, it can come from an external water source, or it can come from packaged drinking water installed on the drinking device 100 or tap water or drinking water stored on the drinking device 100.

[0059] For example, see Figure 1 In some embodiments, the body 1 is provided with not only a beverage port 12 but also a water port 13. The water port 13 is used to connect to a container 200 filled with water. The cleaning chamber 3 receives water flowing out of the water port 13 so that the water at the water port 13 flows into the cleaning chamber 3 and is used as liquid for dissolving the medicine. At this time, the liquid for dissolving the medicine in the cleaning chamber 3 comes from the packaged drinking water connected to the water port 13. Alternatively, see Fig.12 In some embodiments, the cleaning chamber 3 receives water flowing out of the water tank 15 so that the water in the water tank 15 flows into the cleaning chamber 3 and is used as liquid for dissolving the agent. At this time, the liquid used for dissolving the agent in the cleaning chamber 3 comes from the water in the water tank 15.

[0060] Regardless of whether the liquid used to dissolve the medicine in the cleaning chamber 3 is packaged drinking water from the water inlet 13 or water from the water tank 15, since there is no need to take water from the outside, it is more convenient to implement medicine-adding cleaning. Moreover, the cleaning chamber 3 receives water from the water inlet 13 and / or the water tank 15, which is convenient for using the water at the water inlet 13 and / or the water in the water tank 15 to clean the residual medicine components in the cleaning chamber 3 and the first pipe 24 after the medicine-adding cleaning is completed. Moreover, when the water in the water tank 15 is used to clean the first tube 24, the cleaning method is more flexible, because both drinking water and tap water can be added to the water tank 15, so that drinking water can be used to clean the beverage pipeline to achieve a cleaner cleaning of the beverage pipeline, and tap water can be used to clean the pipeline to achieve a lower cost cleaning of the beverage pipeline (because compared with drinking water, cleaning with tap water has a lower cost). It can be seen that when the water in the water tank 15 is used to clean the first tube 24, it is not limited to adding drinking water, but tap water can also be directly added to clean the beverage pipeline, effectively reducing costs.

[0061] Furthermore, when the liquid inlet 32 ​​of the cleaning chamber 3 is connected to the water outlet 13, and the liquid used to dissolve the medicine in the cleaning chamber 3 comes from the packaged drinking water connected to the water outlet 13 and / or the water in the water tank 15, the connection between the cleaning chamber 3 and the water outlet 13 can be achieved through the first tube 24, or can also be achieved through other tubes other than the first tube 24.

[0062] For example, see Figure 1 and Fig.12 In some embodiments, the cleaning chamber 3 is connected to the water inlet 13 and / or the water tank 15 through a first pipe 24, and the first driving mechanism 21 is disposed on the portion of the first pipe 24 between the water inlet 13 and / or the water tank 15 and the cleaning chamber 3 to drive the water at the water inlet 13 and / or the water in the water tank 15 to flow into the cleaning chamber 3. In this way, the connection between the cleaning chamber 3 and the water inlet 13 and / or the water tank 15 is realized through the first pipe 24, and the flow of the water at the water inlet 13 and / or the water in the water tank 15 to the cleaning chamber 3 is driven by the first driving mechanism 21. Since there is no need to set up additional pipes or driving mechanisms to realize the connection between the water inlet 13 and / or the water tank 15 and the cleaning chamber 3 and the driving of the water flow on the corresponding waterway, it is conducive to simplifying the structure, reducing costs, and reducing the volume. Moreover, this solution can realize automatic water filling of the cleaning chamber 3, so the drinking device 100 has a higher degree of automation, a better user experience, and is conducive to improving the cleaning efficiency. At the same time, in this case, since the water flowing into the cleaning chamber 3 is heated by the instant heating element 22 on the first pipe 24, the temperature is relatively high, which is also conducive to the dissolution of the agent, and it may not even be necessary to set up another heating component (for example Figure 5 The heating element 35 shown in the figure is replaced by directly using the liquid heated by the instant heating element 22 to dissolve the medicine, thereby further simplifying the structure and reducing costs.

[0063] The water inlet 13 can not only be used to supply water to the cleaning chamber 3, but also can be used as a source of drinking water or to clean the first pipe 24 with clean water. Figure 1 In some embodiments, the water inlet 13 is connected to the first tube 24, and the first driving mechanism 21 drives the water in the container 200 connected to the water inlet 13 to flow to the first tube 24 for drinking and / or cleaning the first tube 24. In this solution, when the water from the water inlet 13 flows to the first tube 24 for drinking, the drinking device 100 can provide both beverages and water to the user, and can better meet the diverse drinking needs of customers; and when the water from the water inlet 13 flows to the first tube 24 for cleaning the first tube 24, the drinking device 100 can achieve both drug addition cleaning of the beverage pipeline and clean water cleaning of the beverage pipeline, which is convenient for users to flexibly select different cleaning modes according to actual needs, which is conducive to further improving user experience.

[0064] In the aforementioned embodiments of the chemical-adding cleaning method, the flow of the liquid containing the dissolved chemical from the cleaning chamber 3 to the first tube 24 can be completed only under the drive of the first driving mechanism 21, or can also be completed under the joint drive of the first driving mechanism 21 and other driving mechanisms.

[0065] For example, see Figure 1 and Fig.12 In some embodiments, the drinking device 100 further includes a second driving mechanism 5, which drives the liquid containing the medicine dissolved in the cleaning chamber 3 to flow toward the first tube 24. Based on this, the liquid containing the medicine dissolved in the cleaning chamber 3 can flow through the first tube 24 under the joint drive of the first driving mechanism 21 and the second driving mechanism 5, which is conducive to accelerating the flow rate and improving the cleaning efficiency on the one hand, and on the other hand, it is also conducive to reducing the power requirements of the first driving mechanism 21 and the second driving mechanism 5, so that the first driving mechanism 21 and the second driving mechanism 5 only need to use a relatively small power.

[0066] It can be understood that the first driving mechanism 21 and the second driving mechanism 5 are mechanisms capable of driving the flow of liquid. As an example, the first driving mechanism 21 and the second driving mechanism 5 include pumps.

[0067] In some embodiments, the first driving mechanism 21 and the second driving mechanism 5 can not only drive the liquid to flow, but also drive the air to flow. Figure 1 In some embodiments, the first driving mechanism 21 and / or the second driving mechanism 5 drive the air in the cleaning chamber 3 to flow to the first tube 24 to blow out the residual liquid in the first tube 24. Based on this, the air in the cleaning chamber 3 can be used to blow out the residual liquid in the first tube 24, so that the residual liquid in the first tube 24 is completely discharged, and the residual liquid in the first tube 24 is prevented from mixing with the beverage to be consumed next time, resulting in a poor taste and affecting the next drinking experience. Among them, it is simple and convenient to empty the residual liquid by pumping air from the cleaning chamber 3, because there is no need to find another air source and set up an air pump, the structure is simple, and the cost is low. Moreover, some cleaning chambers 3, such as the cleaning chambers 3 set inside the fuselage 1 and not serving as the water receiving tray 6, do not need to store liquid except when dissolving the medicine, and it is more convenient to extract gas.

[0068] In the case of a cleaning cabin 3, see Figure 5 In some embodiments, the drinking device 100 further includes a heating element 35, which heats the liquid in the cleaning chamber 3. In this way, the dissolution efficiency of the agent can be effectively accelerated, thereby improving the cleaning efficiency of the agent. Moreover, the heating element 35 can also evaporate the residual liquid in the cleaning chamber 3 after the agent cleaning process is completed, so as to keep the cleaning chamber 3 clean.

[0069] In addition, in some embodiments with a cleaning chamber 3, the drinking device 100 includes not only the cleaning chamber 3, but also a probe 34, which detects the height and / or temperature of the liquid in the cleaning chamber 3. In this way, the liquid level and / or temperature of the liquid in the cleaning chamber 3 can be timely understood so as to control the corresponding liquid level and / or temperature, thereby achieving a safer, more accurate and more efficient dosing and cleaning process. For example, based on the detection of the liquid level by the probe 34, it can be determined whether it is necessary to add liquid to the cleaning chamber 3 to avoid the liquid level being too high or too low, thereby causing a safety accident. For another example, based on the detection of the temperature by the probe 34, it can be determined whether the temperature of the liquid in the cleaning chamber 3 has reached a temperature that can effectively dissolve the agent, so as to fully dissolve the agent and achieve an efficient and thorough cleaning process.

[0070] As a further improvement to the above embodiments, see Figure 1 The drinking device 100 further includes an instant heating element 22, which is disposed on the first tube 24 and is used to instantly heat the liquid flowing through it. In this way, the provided drinking device 100 can realize the instant heating of beverages and water, and the function of drinking immediately after boiling, effectively meeting the user's demand for drinking hot drinks at any time. Moreover, the instant heating element 22 can also heat the cleaning liquid during the cleaning process, further improving the cleaning effect.

[0071] In the above embodiments, the cleaning cabin 3 can be arranged inside the fuselage 1 (see Figure 1 ), or it may be arranged outside the fuselage 1, below the outlet 14 (see Fig.12 When the cleaning chamber 3 is arranged outside the fuselage 1 and below the outlet 14, the cleaning chamber 3 can also be used as a water receiving tray 6 for receiving waste liquid flowing out of the outlet 14. In this case, waste liquid receiving and drug dissolution can be realized by the same component without setting up two components separately. Therefore, the structure is simpler, the cost is lower, and the volume is smaller.

[0072] Next, combine Figure 1-Figure 11 as well as Figure 12-Figure 15 The embodiments shown are used to further illustrate the present application.

[0073] First, let’s introduce Figure 1-Figure 11 The embodiment shown.

[0074] like Figure 1-Figure 11 As shown, in this embodiment, the drinking device 100 includes a body 1, a heating system 2, a cleaning compartment 3, a water receiving tray 6, a conversion cover 7 and an operation panel 8.

[0075] The body 1 is provided with a water inlet 13, a beverage inlet 12 and an outlet 14. The water inlet 13 is connected to the container 200 for packaged drinking water through the conversion cover 7. The beverage inlet 12 is connected to the container for packaged beverages through the conversion cover 7. The outlet 14 is connected to the beverage inlet 12 through the first tube 24 and to the water inlet 13 through the second tube 25, so that the water at the water inlet 13 and the beverage at the beverage inlet 12 can flow to the outlet 14, and flow out from the outlet 14 to the water receiving member 300 located below the outlet 14 for drinking by the user.

[0076] The conversion cover 7 is used to realize the communication between the water inlet 13 and the beverage inlet 12 and the container 200. Figure 2-Figure 4 As shown, in this embodiment, the conversion cover 7 includes a cover body 71 , a sealing member 72 , a pressure cover 73 and an air intake mechanism 74 .

[0077] The cover body 71 is cylindrical in shape and includes a base 711 and a boss 712. The base 711 is cylindrical and hollow inside, and is used to be connected to the container mouth of the container 200 without the cover. Figure 2 As shown, in this embodiment, the base 711 has an internal thread, which is sleeved on the container mouth of the container 200 and cooperates with the external thread of the container mouth to achieve a sealed connection between the conversion cover 7 and the container 200. The boss 712 is provided on the base 711, which is cylindrical and has a smaller diameter than the base 711, and is used to connect to the interface 11 (water port 13 and beverage port 12) of the drinking device 100. Specifically, as shown in FIG. Figure 2 As shown, in this embodiment, the boss 712 extends into the interface 11 and has an external thread, which cooperates with the internal thread of the interface 11 to achieve a sealed connection between the conversion cover 7 and the interface 11. Figure 2 and Figure 3 It can be seen that the boss 712 is hollow inside and connected to the base 711, and a through hole 715 is provided on the end surface of the boss 712 away from the base 711. The through hole 715 penetrates the end surface of the boss 712 away from the base 711 along the thickness direction, connecting the inside of the boss 712 with the outside. Figure 2 When the conversion cover 7 is installed on the container 200 and inserted into the interface 11, if the through hole 715 is opened, the conversion cover 7 can connect the container 200 with the interface 11, so that the liquid in the container 200 can flow into the interface 11 through the conversion cover 7, and then flow in the internal flow path of the drinking device 100.

[0078] The sealing member 72 is disposed in the cover body 71 to control whether the through hole 715 is sealed, and thus to control whether liquid is discharged. Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown, in this embodiment, the seal 72 is roughly cylindrical and has a flange 723. Correspondingly, a groove 713 is provided in the boss 712, and the flange 723 is inserted into the groove 713 to achieve the installation of the seal 72 in the boss 712, so that the seal 72 is arranged in the boss 712. In addition, a pressure cover 73 is provided on the side of the seal 72 close to the base 711. The pressure cover 73 is pressed on the end face of the seal 72 facing the base 711, and the seal 72 is pressed on the boss 712, so that the seal 72 can be more reliably connected to the boss 712 and is not easy to fall off, thereby achieving a tight seal.

[0079] After being installed in place, the end of the sealing member 72 away from the base 711 extends into the through hole 715 to seal the through hole 715. In order to allow the liquid to flow out through the sealing member 72, as shown in FIG. Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, in this embodiment, the seal 72 and the pressure cover 73 are both hollow inside, and an opening 722 is provided on the end surface of the seal 72 away from the base 711, so that the seal 72 can connect the inside of the cover body 71 with the outside, so that when installed on the container 200 and connected to the interface 11, as long as the opening 722 is opened, the container 200 can be connected with the interface 11, so that the liquid in the container 200 can flow into the interface 11 through the opening 722.

[0080] Furthermore, if Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, in this embodiment, the end surface of the sealing member 72 away from the base 711 is an arc surface 721, and the opening 722 on the arc surface 721 is cross-shaped. In this way, the end surface of the sealing member 72 away from the base 711 can better withstand the gravity of the liquid, so that when the container 200 is inverted, the internal liquid will not flow out only under the action of gravity, but will only flow out when it is pumped by the first driving mechanism 21, thereby effectively preventing the liquid from leaking out in advance without affecting the normal liquid discharge. Moreover, the corresponding design also enables that after being pumped by the first driving mechanism 21, the end surface of the sealing member 72 away from the base 711 can be deformed in time, so that the opening 722 is opened, and the liquid is discharged quickly.

[0081] It can be seen that setting the end face of the seal 72 away from the base 711 as an arc surface 721 with a cross-shaped opening 722 can effectively meet the sealing and liquid discharge requirements before and after the negative pressure applied by the first driving mechanism 21, and facilitate normal liquid discharge while reliably preventing premature leakage of liquid.

[0082] Moreover, in this embodiment, the sealing member 72 is a silicone member which is elastic as a whole. Thus, it can more reliably seal and prevent leakage and improve the liquid discharge efficiency because, on the one hand, the sealing member 72 which is elastic as a whole can achieve a tighter sealing effect. On the other hand, in this case, the end face of the sealing member 72 which is away from the base 711 is elastic and can be quickly deformed to open the opening 722 to discharge liquid after the first driving mechanism 21 is started.

[0083] The air intake mechanism 74 is disposed on the cover 71 and is used to control the air to flow into the container 200 during the liquid discharge process to improve the smoothness of the liquid discharge. Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, in this embodiment, the air intake mechanism 74 is arranged on the end surface of the base 711 close to the boss 712, and includes a valve cover 742, a valve body 743 and an elastic member 741. The valve cover 742 is covered on the cover body 71 and has an air inlet 745. The valve body 743 is movably inserted into the air inlet 745 to control the opening and closing of the air inlet 745 during the movement. The elastic member 741 (such as a spring) abuts between the valve body 743 and the base 711, and exerts a force on the valve body 743 to close the air inlet 745. Specifically, in this embodiment, a protrusion 714 is provided on the end surface of the base 711 facing the boss 712. The protrusion 714 protrudes outward relative to the base 711, and is hollow inside and open at both ends. The valve cover 742 is covered on the outer end opening of the protrusion 714, and has an air inlet 745 that connects the inside and outside of the protrusion 714. The valve body 743 is movably inserted through the two open ends of the protruding column 714, and one end extends into the interior of the base 711, and the other end extends into the air inlet 745. At the same time, a flange 744 is provided between the two ends of the valve body 743, and the flange 744 is located on the side of the valve cover 742 close to the base 711. The elastic member 741 is sleeved on the valve body 743 and abuts between the flange 744 and the outer wall of the base 711, exerting an elastic force on the valve body 743 toward the air inlet 745.

[0084] Based on the above arrangement, when the first driving mechanism 21 is not started and the pressure in the container 200 is less than the force exerted by the elastic member 741 on the valve body 743, the flange 744 blocks the air inlet 745, and outside air cannot enter the container 200 through the air inlet mechanism 74; and when the first driving mechanism 21 draws out the liquid in the container 200, a negative pressure is formed in the container 200, and the negative pressure exceeds the force exerted by the elastic member 741 on the valve body 743, the valve body 743 moves, so that the flange 744 no longer blocks the air inlet 745, and the air inlet 745 opens, and air can enter the container 200 through the air inlet 745; thereafter, when the first driving mechanism 21 is closed and the pressure in the container 200 is again less than the force exerted by the elastic member 741 on the valve body 743, the valve body 743 can move in the opposite direction and reset under the action of the elastic member 741 to close the air inlet 745.

[0085] It can be seen that based on the air intake mechanism 74, after the first driving mechanism 21 draws out the liquid in the container 200, the outside air can enter the container 200 through the air intake mechanism 74, balance the pressure inside and outside the container 200, so that the liquid in the container 200 can flow out normally, and effectively prevent the container 200 from being sucked out, thereby effectively solving the problems of poor liquid discharge and the container 200 being sucked out.

[0086] The heating system 2 is disposed inside the body 1 and is used to instantly heat the water and beverages flowing to the outlet 14. Figure 1 As shown, in this embodiment, the heating system 2 includes a first driving mechanism 21, a flow meter 23 and an instant heating element 22. The first driving mechanism 21 is a pump, which is sequentially arranged on the first pipe 24 along the direction of the beverage flowing from the beverage port 12 to the outlet 14 together with the flow meter 23 and the instant heating element 22, and the first pipe 24 is connected to the second pipe 25 through a first valve 27 (specifically a three-way valve), so that the water at the water port 13 and the beverage at the beverage port 12 can be pumped by the first driving mechanism 21 when needed, flow through the flow meter 23 and the instant heating element 22, and be heated to a preset temperature by the instant heating element 22, flow out from the outlet 14, and flow into the water receiving element 300 located below the outlet 14 for the user to drink, so that the drinking water and beverage can be boiled and drunk immediately. At the same time, when necessary, for example, after each or multiple beverage heating, the first driving mechanism 21 can also be used to drive the water at the water port 13 to flow through the first pipe 24 and the outlet 14, so as to clean the first pipe 24 and the outlet 14 with clean water. The instant heating element 22 is in a tubular or plate-like shape, and is an instant heating tube or an instant heating plate.

[0087] The cleaning cabin 3 is arranged inside the body 1 and is used to clean the beverage pipeline by adding medicine. Figure 1As shown, in this embodiment, the cleaning chamber 3 is a boiler, which is provided with a drug inlet 31, a liquid inlet 32 ​​and a liquid outlet 33. The drug inlet 31 is connected to the outside of the fuselage 1, which is convenient for users to put in the medicine. A blocking piece can be set on the drug inlet 31 to block the drug inlet 31 when no drug addition is needed to prevent foreign matter from entering. The liquid inlet 32 ​​is connected to the water inlet 13 through the first tube 24 and the second tube 25, so that the water at the water inlet 13 can flow into the cleaning chamber 3 under the drive of the first driving mechanism 21 to dissolve the medicine. A second valve 28 is provided between the liquid inlet 32 ​​and the first tube 24 to control the opening and closing of the corresponding pipeline, and then control whether to inject water into the cleaning chamber 3. The liquid outlet 33 is connected to the first tube 24 through the third tube 26 and the second tube 25, so that the liquid dissolved with the medicine can flow through the first tube 24 and the outlet 14, and the first tube 24 and the outlet 14 are cleaned by adding medicine. A third valve 29 is provided between the third pipe 26 and the second pipe 25 to control the opening and closing of the corresponding pipes, and further control whether the dosing cleaning liquid is introduced into the first pipe 24. In addition, a second driving mechanism 5 is provided on the third pipe 26. The second driving mechanism 5 is a pump, which is used to drive the liquid and air in the cleaning chamber 3 to flow to the first pipe 24 together with the first driving mechanism 21, so as to perform dosing cleaning and residual emptying.

[0088] In addition, if Figure 1 As shown, in this embodiment, a heating element 35 is provided at the bottom of the cleaning chamber 3. Figure 5 As shown, in this embodiment, the heating element 35 is a heating coil, specifically a brazed heating tube. In this way, the heating element 35 can be used to heat the cleaning chamber 3, which can not only heat the water in the cleaning chamber 3 to a suitable temperature to completely dissolve the agent, but also facilitate evaporation of the residual solution in the cleaning chamber 3 after the agent addition and cleaning is completed, so as to keep the cleaning chamber 3 clean. A probe 34 is provided in the cleaning chamber 3.

[0089] At the same time, if Figure 1 As shown, in this embodiment, a probe 34 is provided in the cleaning chamber 3. The probe 34 detects the water level and water temperature in the cleaning chamber 3, so that when the water level reaches a preset value, water is stopped from being injected into the cleaning chamber 3, and when the water temperature reaches a preset value (e.g., 90° C.), the heating element 35 stops heating the cleaning chamber 3.

[0090] The water receiving tray 6 is disposed below the outlet 14 and is used to receive waste liquid flowing out of the outlet 14, including the cleaning liquid generated during the cleaning process and the residual beverage not received by the water receiving member 300. Figure 1As shown, in this embodiment, a liquid level meter 61 (for example, a reed switch liquid level meter) is provided on the water receiving tray 6 for detecting the liquid level in the water receiving tray 6, so that when the liquid level in the water receiving tray 6 reaches a preset maximum value, an alarm is sounded to prompt the user to empty the water receiving tray 6, and if the liquid level in the water receiving tray 6 reaches the preset maximum value while a cleaning program is running, the corresponding cleaning program can also be stopped to prevent the cleaning water from continuing to flow into the water receiving tray 6 and causing the liquid in the water receiving tray 6 to overflow.

[0091] The aforementioned water receiving member 300 for receiving beverages is placed on the water receiving tray 6 and supported by the water receiving tray 6. In this embodiment, the drinking device 100 also includes an in-place detection (not shown in the figure) for detecting the placement of the water receiving member 300 to determine whether the water receiving member 300 is in place, so as to facilitate the control of the instant heating process to be performed only when the water receiving member 300 is in place, thereby preventing beverage waste, and also facilitate the control of the cleaning process to be performed only after the water receiving member 300 is taken away, thereby preventing the cleaning liquid, especially the cleaning liquid after the addition of medicine, from flowing into the water receiving member 300 and being drunk by mistake. Specifically, in this embodiment, the in-place detection includes an infrared photoelectric sensor. When a cup of beverage is heated and the user takes away the water receiving member 300, the infrared photoelectric sensor detects that there is no water receiving member 300 below the outlet 14. At this time, the drinking device 100 starts the cleaning program to clean the beverage pipeline.

[0092] The operation panel 8 is arranged on the body 1 for the user to operate and select the operation mode. Figure 6 As shown, in this embodiment, the operation panel 8 is provided with a switch key 86, a temperature key 81, a water volume key 82, a type key 83, a first mode key 84 and a second mode key 85. Among them, the switch key 86 is used for operation to control the switch of the whole machine, and the words "start cancel" are marked on it. When triggered (for example, when pressed), the drinking device 100 is turned on or shut down to stop running. The temperature key 81 is used for operation to set the instant heating temperature of the instant heating element 22 for water and beverages. The water volume key 82 is used for operation to set the amount of water extracted from the container 200 at a time. The type key 83 is used to select the type of beverage to be extracted, specifically including various beverages such as milk tea, juice, coffee, milk and sugar-free tea, as well as water.

[0093] The first mode button 84 is labeled “Quick Wash” for the user to select a clean water washing mode.

[0094] The second mode key 85 is labeled "ultra-clean wash" for the user to select the chemical addition cleaning mode.

[0095] Based on the aforementioned structural arrangement, the drinking device 100 of this embodiment can simultaneously realize instant heating of drinking water and beverages. Compared with drinking devices that can only realize heating of a single type of beverage, it has richer functions and wider application scenarios. In particular, by instantly heating beverages, there is no need to adopt the traditional method of pouring out the beverages and heating them separately, making it convenient and quick for users to use, and there is no longer the trouble of having too much instant heated beverage and not being able to drink it all and then throwing it away, or not drinking it in time and letting it cool down and then having to reheat it.

[0096] In addition, the drinking device 100 of this embodiment can also clean the beverage pipeline, and in particular, can perform different degrees of cleaning according to different beverages to prevent the beverage pipeline from residual beverage deterioration, odor transfer and scaling, so that the drinking device 100 can remain clean and hygienic.

[0097] Figure 7-Figure 10 The flow path of the drinking device 100 of this embodiment under different working conditions is shown. Figure 7-Figure 10 The working process of the drinking device 100 is described.

[0098] Figure 7 The instant heating process of beverage is shown. Figure 7 As shown, when the user needs to drink a heated beverage, the user removes the lid of the beverage container 200 (approximately 500 to 3000 ml), installs the conversion cover 7 on the container 200, and then inverts the container 200 so that the conversion cover 7 on the container 200 is docked with the beverage port 12. After that, the corresponding beverage type and temperature are selected on the operation panel 8, and the third valve 29 is controlled to be closed. The first valve 27 and the second valve 28 connect the various sections of the first tube 24 to achieve the connection between the beverage port 12 and the outlet 14, and the first drive mechanism 21 is opened. The first drive mechanism 21 draws the beverage in the container 200 into the first tube 24, flows through the instant heating element 22, is heated by the instant heating, and finally flows into the water receiving element 300 through the outlet 14, so that the user gets a cup of heated beverage. Specifically, as Figure 6 As shown, in this process, the flow path of the beverage is roughly: beverage packaging container 200 - beverage port 12 - first valve 27 - first drive mechanism 21 - second valve 28 - flow meter 23 - instant heating element 22 - outlet 14 - water receiving element 300.

[0099] Figure 8 The instantaneous heating process of drinking water is shown in FIG. Figure 8As shown, when the user needs to drink heated water, the lid of the water container 200 is removed, the conversion cover 7 is installed on the container 200, and then the container 200 is turned upside down so that the conversion cover 7 on the container 200 is docked with the water outlet 13. After that, the corresponding water key is selected on the operation panel 8 to set the temperature, and the first valve 27, the second valve 28 and the third valve 29 are controlled to connect the first tube 24 itself and the first tube 24 and the second tube 25. The first driving mechanism 21 is opened, and the first driving mechanism 21 draws the water in the container 200 into the first tube 24, flows through the instant heating element 22, is heated by the instant heating, and finally flows into the water receiving element 300 through the outlet 14, so that the user can get a cup of heated water. Specifically, as Figure 7 As shown, in this process, the flow path of the drinking water is roughly: the packaged drinking water container 200 - the water inlet 13 - the third valve 29 - the first valve 27 - the first driving mechanism 21 - the second valve 28 - the flow meter 23 - the instant heating element 22 - the outlet 14 - the water receiving element 300.

[0100] Fig. 9 The figure shows the water cleaning process. After the user has finished heating the drinking water, there is no protein and sugar residue in the pipe, so there is no need to start the cleaning process. Fig. 9 As shown, when the user has finished heating and making a milk tea-like beverage, or manually selected the "quick wash" function, the drinking device 100 will start the clean water cleaning program, control the first valve 27, the second valve 28 and the third valve 29 to connect the first tube 24 itself and the first tube 24 and the second tube 25, and the first drive mechanism 21 is opened, and the first drive mechanism 21 draws water in the container 200 into the first tube 24, so that the drinking water in the packaged drinking water flows through the first tube 24 and flows out from the outlet 14, and the first tube 24 and the outlet 14 are cleaned. Specifically, as Fig. 9 As shown, in this process, the flow path of the cleaning water is roughly: packaged drinking water container 200 - water inlet 13 - third valve 29 - first valve 27 - first drive mechanism 21 - second valve 28 - flow meter 23 - instant heating element 22 - outlet 14 - water receiving tray 6.

[0101] Fig.10 and Fig.11 The figure shows the cleaning process of adding chemicals. Fig.10 and Fig.11 As shown, when the user selects the "ultra-clean" function, the drinking device 100 starts the dosing cleaning process to achieve the purpose of deep cleaning of foreign matter and dirt such as protein, sugar and tea in the pipeline. Specifically, the entire dosing cleaning process is divided into three stages: dosing water injection stage, drug dissolution stage and dosing solution flushing stage. Among them, in the dosing water injection stage, as Fig.10As shown, the user first puts the medicine into the cleaning chamber 3 through the medicine inlet 31, and then controls the third valve 29, the first valve 27 and the second valve 28 to connect the first tube 24 itself, the first tube 24 and the second tube 25, and the first tube 24 and the liquid inlet 32 ​​of the cleaning chamber 3, and the first drive mechanism 21 is opened, and the first drive mechanism 21 draws the water in the container 200 into the cleaning chamber 3 to complete the water filling process of the cleaning chamber. The corresponding water filling flow path is: packaged drinking water container 200 - water inlet 13 - third valve 29 - first valve 27 - first drive mechanism 21 - second valve 28 - cleaning chamber 3. After the water is filled to the preset water level, the heating element 35 is started to heat the water in the cleaning chamber 3 to about 90°C, and the heating is stopped so that the medicine is fully dissolved in the water in the cleaning chamber 3 to complete the medicine dissolution process. Afterwards, as Fig.11 As shown, the first valve 27, the second valve 28 and the third valve 29 are controlled to connect the first tube 24 itself, the first tube 24 and the second tube 25, and the third tube 26 and the second tube 25, and the first drive mechanism 21 and the second drive mechanism 5 are opened, and the first drive mechanism 21 and the second drive mechanism 5 work together to extract the dosing solution in the cleaning chamber 3 to flow through the first tube 24 and the outlet 14, so as to complete the dosing solution flushing process. The flow path of the corresponding flushing process is: cleaning chamber 3 - second drive mechanism 5 - third valve 29 - first valve 27 - first drive mechanism 21 - second valve 28 - flow meter 23 - instant heating element 22 - outlet 14 - water receiving tray 6.

[0102] In order to achieve a more complete cleaning of the pipeline, after a round of the above-mentioned drug addition and cleaning, the cleaning chamber 3 and the beverage pipeline can be flushed with clean water to remove the residual components of the drug. This process can be specifically repeated Fig.10 and Fig.11 process realization.

[0103] And, in accordance with Fig.10 and Fig.11 After the cleaning chamber 3 and the first tube 24 are rinsed once for residual drug components, the cleaning chamber 3 and the first tube 24 can be rinsed again according to the method of FIG. Figure 8 , draw a small amount of drinking water to flush the pipes to more thoroughly flush out any residual pharmaceutical ingredients that may be in the pipes.

[0104] After the above-mentioned “cleaning with chemical addition + two flushings of residual chemical components”, the heating element 35 can be started again to heat with low power to evaporate the water in the cleaning chamber 3 and keep the cleaning chamber 3 dry and clean.

[0105] Under the above-mentioned working conditions, whether it is water or the instant heating process of beverages, the flow rate can be monitored by the flow meter 23, and the temperature can be detected by the detector on the instant heating element 22. By adjusting the power of the first driving mechanism 21, the flow rate of the liquid in the pipeline can be adjusted, thereby achieving precise temperature control of the beverage.

[0106] Furthermore, when the water or beverage is about to be or has been made and the cleaning procedure is about to or has been completed, the first drive mechanism 21 and the second drive mechanism 5 can be controlled to work at low power to extract air from the cleaning chamber 3 and completely discharge the residual liquid in the pipeline to prevent the residual liquid in the pipeline from flowing into the water receiving member 300 when the next beverage is made, affecting the drinking experience. The corresponding ventilation and discharge of residual process, its flow path can refer to Fig.11 .

[0107] Next, let’s introduce Figure 12-Figure 15 In order to simplify the description, Figure 12-Figure 15 The embodiment shown in the figure mainly introduces this embodiment and the aforementioned Figure 1-Figure 11 The differences between the embodiments shown in the figure and other undescribed parts can be referred to in the Figure 1-Figure 11 Description of the illustrated embodiment.

[0108] See also Figure 12-Figure 15 In this embodiment, the drinking device 100 still includes a beverage port 12, but no longer includes a water port 13, but includes a water tank 15, which is disposed on the body 1 and is used to hold tap water. In addition, although the drinking device 100 still includes a cleaning cabin 3, the cleaning cabin 3 is no longer disposed in the body 1, but is disposed outside the body 1, below the outlet 14, to receive liquid flowing out of the outlet 14. In this case, the cleaning cabin 3 not only provides space for dissolving the medicine, but is also used to receive waste liquid. That is to say, the cleaning cabin 3 of this embodiment has both the functions of dissolving the medicine and receiving the waste liquid, which can be Figure 1-Figure 11 The water tray 6 in the illustrated embodiment directly serves as, or in other words, Figure 1-Figure 11 The water receiving tray 6 in the illustrated embodiment can be directly used as the cleaning chamber 3 of the embodiment. In this case, the top opening of the water receiving tray 6 can be used as the drug adding port 31 , the liquid inlet 32 ​​and the liquid outlet 33 of the cleaning chamber 3 .

[0109] Since the cleaning chamber 3 is served by the water receiving tray 6, there is no need to set up a cleaning chamber 3 in the fuselage 1. Moreover, the cleaning chamber 3 and the water tank 15 can be directly connected through the outlet 14, and there is no need to set up the second valve 28. At the same time, the liquid used to dissolve the medicine in the cleaning chamber 3 can come from the water flowing out of the water tank 15 and heated by the instant heating element 22. The temperature heated by the instant heating element 22 is used to dissolve the medicine, and there is no need to set up a special heating element 35. Therefore, the structure is simpler, which is conducive to reducing costs, reducing volume, and improving reliability.

[0110] In addition, if Fig.12 As shown, in this embodiment, a fourth valve 20 is further provided on the portion of the first tube 24 between the first driving mechanism 21 and the first valve 27, which is conducive to further preventing the liquid in the container 200 or the water tank 15 from leaking unexpectedly. Specifically, since the container 200 and the water tank 15 containing beverages are usually at a high position, and the first valve 27 is a three-way valve, it is either in a state of connecting the water tank 15 with the first tube 24, or in a state of connecting the beverage port 12 with the first tube 24, and there is no shut-off state. Therefore, if the fourth valve 20 is not provided, the water in the water tank 15 or the beverage in the container 200 may flow into the first tube 24 through the first valve 27 under the action of gravity, and leakage may occur. However, the fourth valve 20 is provided to shut off the corresponding pipeline, which can solve the corresponding problem and effectively prevent the liquid in the container 200 or the water tank 15 from leaking.

[0111] Based on the above configuration, the drinking device 100 of this embodiment is no longer used as a water dispenser, but only as a beverage dispenser, which can realize the function of hot beverage drinking, and can use the tap water in the water tank 15 to realize the function of cleaning the beverage pipeline. At the same time, it can also add medicine to the cleaning chamber 3 used as the water receiving tray 6, and make the water in the water tank 15 flow into the cleaning chamber 3 to dissolve the medicine. After that, the liquid dissolved with medicine in the cleaning chamber 3 is used to realize the function of adding medicine to clean the beverage pipeline. These processes are Figure 13-Figure 15 Shown in.

[0112] in, Fig.13 The instant heating process of beverage is shown. Fig.13 As shown, during the instant heating process of a beverage, the flow path of the beverage is roughly: a container 200 for packaging the beverage - a beverage port 12 - a first valve 27 - a first driving mechanism 21 - a flow meter 23 - an instant heating element 22 - an outlet 14 - a water receiving element 300 .

[0113] Fig.14 The clean water cleaning process is shown in FIG. Fig.13 As shown, the flow path of the corresponding clean water cleaning process is roughly: water tank 15 - third valve 29 - first valve 27 - first drive mechanism 21 - instant heating element 22 - outlet 14 - cleaning chamber 3. Among them, tap water is added to the water tank 15 instead of drinking water, so that the cleaning process is completed based on tap water, saving costs.

[0114] Fig.15 The figure shows the cleaning process of adding chemicals. Fig.15As shown, during the corresponding chemical addition and cleaning process, the flow path of the liquid containing the dissolved chemical is roughly: cleaning chamber 3 - second drive mechanism 5 - third valve 29 - first valve 27 - first drive mechanism 21 - heating element 22 - outlet 14 - cleaning chamber 3.

[0115] It is understandable that in Fig.15 Before pumping the liquid containing the medicine dissolved in the cleaning chamber 3 to flush the beverage pipeline, the liquid in the cleaning chamber 3 can be poured out first to prevent the waste liquid previously received in the cleaning chamber 3 from flowing into the beverage pipeline and affecting the cleaning effect. After that, after pouring out the liquid in the cleaning chamber 3, the medicine can be added to the empty cleaning chamber 3, and the water in the water tank 15 can be pumped into the cleaning chamber 3 to dissolve the medicine. Then, Fig.15 As shown, a liquid containing a dissolved medicine is pumped into the beverage pipeline for adding medicine and cleaning.

[0116] In addition, in Fig.15 After a round of dosing and cleaning is completed, water can be drawn from the water tank 15 to flush the remaining pharmaceutical components in the pipeline. The corresponding flow path can refer to Fig.14 .

[0117] In addition, although the drinking device 100 of this embodiment is not used as a water dispenser, it should be understood that the drinking device 100 of this embodiment can also be used as a water dispenser through modification. For example, drinking water can be added to the water tank 15 to achieve the instant heating function of drinking water, so that the corresponding drinking device 100 also has the function of a water dispenser. Alternatively, a water outlet 13 connected to packaged drinking water can be provided to achieve the instant heating function of drinking water, so that the corresponding drinking device 100 also has the function of a water dispenser. Moreover, the provided water outlet 13 can be connected to the outlet 14 through a pipeline other than the first tube 24, so that drinking water and beverages no longer share a pipeline, thereby preventing odor contamination, so that when a user wants to drink drinking water, the drinking water is not contaminated by the beverage in the pipeline, causing the user to drink water with the taste of the beverage, affecting the user experience.

[0118] Based on the aforementioned embodiments, the present application also provides a control method, which includes connecting the interface 11 with the outlet 14 and starting the first driving mechanism 21 to drive the liquid in the container 200 connected to the interface 11 to flow through the instant heating element 22, and then flow out from the outlet 14 after being instantaneously heated by the instant heating element 22.

[0119] In some embodiments, at least one interface 11 of the drinking device 100 includes a beverage port 12, the beverage port 12 is used to connect to a container 200 containing a beverage and is connected to the outlet 14 through a first tube 24, and the control method includes at least one of the following:

[0120] The water inlet 13 is connected to the first pipe 24, and the first driving mechanism 21 drives the water in the container 200 connected to the water inlet 13 to flow to the first pipe 24 to clean the first pipe 24. The water inlet 13 is arranged on the body 1 and is used to connect the container 200 filled with water;

[0121] The water tank 15 is connected to the first pipe 24, and the first driving mechanism 21 drives the water in the water tank 15 to flow to the first pipe 24 to clean the first pipe 24. The water tank 15 is arranged on the body 1 and is used to contain water;

[0122] The cleaning chamber 3 is connected to the first tube 24, and the first driving mechanism 21 drives the liquid containing the dissolved medicine in the cleaning chamber 3 to flow to the first tube 24 to clean the first tube 24. The cleaning chamber 3 is provided with a medicine inlet 31 for the medicine to enter, and is used to contain the liquid containing the dissolved medicine.

[0123] In some embodiments, the drinking device 100 includes a cleaning cabin 3, and the drinking device 100 includes a water inlet 13 and / or a water tank 15, and the control method includes:

[0124] Before the cleaning chamber 3 is connected to the first pipe 24 and the first driving mechanism 21 drives the liquid containing the dissolved agent in the cleaning chamber 3 to flow to the first pipe 24 to clean the first pipe 24, the cleaning chamber 3 is also connected to the water inlet 13 and / or the water tank 15, and the water at the water inlet 13 and / or the water in the water tank 15 is driven to flow into the cleaning chamber 3 to be used as the liquid for dissolving the agent; and / or,

[0125] After the cleaning chamber 3 is connected with the first tube 24 and the first driving mechanism 21 drives the liquid containing the dissolved agent in the cleaning chamber 3 to flow to the first tube 24 to clean the first tube 24, the cleaning chamber 3 is also connected with the water inlet 13 and / or the water tank 15, and the water at the water inlet 13 and / or the water in the water tank 15 is driven to flow into the cleaning chamber 3 to clean the residual agent components in the cleaning chamber 3.

[0126] In some embodiments, after the cleaning chamber 3 is connected with the water inlet 13 and / or the water tank 15, and the water at the water inlet 13 and / or the water tank 15 is driven to flow into the cleaning chamber 3 to clean the residual pharmaceutical components in the cleaning chamber 3, the cleaning chamber 3 is also connected with the first tube 24, and the liquid in the cleaning chamber 3 is driven to flow into the first tube 24 to clean the residual pharmaceutical components in the first tube 24.
