Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of capsule brewing beverages, in particular to a capsule cup. Background Art

[0002] The beverage solute is stored in the capsule cup, and the liquid dissolves the solute to form a beverage after entering the capsule cup; a sealing film is usually provided at the bottom of the capsule cup, and a puncture needle assembly is provided at the bottom of the sealing film. The sealing film is deformed by the pressure of the liquid, and then approaches the puncture needle assembly. The puncture needle assembly pierces the sealing film to allow the beverage to flow out from the outlet at the bottom of the capsule cup. For example, the film cutting mechanism, capsule and beverage machine disclosed in the Chinese patent authorization announcement number CN208828400U and the authorization announcement date May 7, 2019, set the cutting piece on the lower side of the cling film. The cling film is pressed and drives the main body to descend, so that the end of the cutting piece pierces the cling film. The method of puncturing the cling film with a needle must consider both the pressure problem and the uniformity of the hole. In addition, the overall structure is complex, and the punctured needle holes are often uneven, which leads to uneven liquid discharge and easy splashing. Utility Model Content

[0003] In order to solve the above problems existing in the prior art, the utility model provides a capsule cup with stable structure and uniform liquid discharge.

[0004] In order to achieve the above purpose, the utility model adopts the following technical solutions:

[0005] A capsule cup comprises a capsule cup body, wherein a sealing film is provided at the open end of the capsule cup body, an outlet is provided at the bottom of the capsule cup body, an isolation sheet is provided at the inner lower end of the capsule cup body, a plurality of through holes are provided on the isolation sheet, and a seal that can be deformed under pressure is provided on the lower side of the isolation sheet; in a natural state, the seal closes the lower end of the through hole; in a pressurized state, the seal deforms to open the through hole, so that liquid can pass through the through hole and flow out from the outlet.

[0006] When in use, the external piercing needle pierces the sealing film and extends into the capsule cup body to inject solvent into the inside. The solvent is mixed with the solute in the capsule cup body to form a beverage. The beverage solution exerts pressure on the seal, causing the seal to deform and open the through hole. Finally, the beverage solution flows out from the outlet after passing through the through hole. The capsule cup has a stable structure and the seal can stably open the through hole after being deformed under pressure, so that the liquid discharged is more uniform and stable.

[0007] Preferably, the through holes on the isolation plate are evenly distributed in the circumferential direction, and the seal comprises a seal body and a sealing lip formed by extending from the edge of the seal body, and the seal body is connected to the lower side of the isolation plate; in a natural state, the sealing lip abuts against the lower side surface of the isolation plate so that all the through holes are closed.

[0008] Preferably, a downwardly protruding connection boss is provided at the bottom center of the isolation sheet, and the upper side surface of the seal body extends to form a connection sleeve sleeved on the connection boss; an inclined connection portion is provided between the sealing lip and the seal body. The inclined connection portion enables the sealing lip to abut against the lower side surface of the isolation sheet in a non-pressure state, thereby stably closing the through hole; when the sealing lip is under pressure, the connection portion is more conducive to the deformation of the sealing lip to open the through hole.

[0009] Preferably, the outer side of the connecting boss is provided with a slot, and the inner wall of the connecting sleeve is provided with a convex ring adapted to the slot. The seal is inserted into the slot of the connecting boss through the convex ring on the connecting sleeve, thereby achieving connection between the seal and the isolation sheet.

[0010] Preferably, the isolation sheet is provided with a filter element for preventing particles from passing through the through hole. The filter element prevents particles from entering the through hole, effectively preventing undissolved particles from being discharged from the outlet and affecting the taste of the beverage.

[0011] Preferably, the filter element is configured as a filter sheet disposed on the upper side of the isolation sheet and covering all through holes. The filter sheet covers all through holes, which prevents particles from entering the through holes and clogging the through holes, and prevents particles from being discharged from the through holes and affecting the taste of the beverage.

[0012] Preferably, the sealing member is made of rubber or silicone. The sealing member made of rubber or silicone has good elasticity, so that the sealing member can deform more stably when under pressure.

[0013] Preferably, a guide member is provided between the bottom of the capsule cup body and the sealing member, and a plurality of guide holes evenly distributed along the circumference are provided at the edge of the guide member. The guide member plays a guiding role and can also effectively promote the further dissolution of small particle solutes.

[0014] Preferably, the outlet is arranged at the bottom center of the capsule body, and the bottom of the guide member is provided with a plurality of convex strips radially distributed from the center to the outside, and a guide channel is formed between adjacent convex strips, one end of the guide channel is connected to the guide hole, and the other end of the guide channel is connected to the outlet.

[0015] Preferably, a buffer is provided in the middle of the capsule cup body, the buffer divides the space in the capsule cup body into an upper cavity and a lower cavity for storing the solute, and a plurality of buffer holes are evenly distributed on the buffer. The buffer can prevent the water flow of the needle from directly impacting the solute powder, thereby reducing the generation of bubbles.

[0016] Therefore, the utility model has the beneficial effects of stable structure and uniform liquid discharge. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
