Detailed Embodiments

[0023] The present utility model will be further described below with reference to the drawings and embodiments.

[0024] See Figures 1 - 7 Figures 1 - 7 , a portable coffee machine, comprising a machine body 10 and a drinking cup 40. The machine body 10 includes a housing 100 and a driving mechanism 110 disposed within the housing 100. The machine body 10 is detachably connected to a grinding assembly 20 or a water injection assembly 30, and the grinding assembly 20 or the water injection assembly 30 is in transmission connection with the driving mechanism 110; an extraction powder cup 50 is detachably disposed within the drinking cup 40, and the drinking cup 40 is detachably connected to the grinding assembly 20 or the water injection assembly 30; the grinding assembly 20 is configured to grind coffee beans and convey the ground coffee powder into the extraction powder cup 50; and the water injection assembly 30 is configured to inject water into the extraction powder cup 50 for extraction.

[0025] In the grinding mode, the machine body, the grinding assembly, and the extraction powder cup are sequentially connected. The machine body drives the grinding assembly to operate, and the ground coffee powder obtained after grinding enters the extraction powder cup located within the drinking cup 40. In the water injection mode, the machine body, the water injection assembly, and the drinking cup are sequentially connected. The water injection assembly injects water into the extraction powder cup for extraction, and the coffee liquid obtained after extraction flows into the drinking cup.

[0026] The bottom of the extraction powder cup 50 is evenly distributed with extraction holes 510, and the coffee liquid drips from the extraction holes 510 into the drinking cup 60 below.

[0027] The grinding assembly 20 includes a grinding chamber 210 detachably connected to the housing 100. An outer cutter head 220 is fixedly disposed within the grinding chamber 210, and an inner cutter head 230 that cooperates with the outer cutter head 220 is rotatably disposed within the outer cutter head 220. The inner cutter head 230 is connected to a first rotating shaft 240, and the first rotating shaft 240 is in transmission connection with the driving mechanism 110; a grinding gap 250 is formed between the outer cutter head 220 and the inner cutter head 230; the extraction powder cup 50 is disposed below the grinding gap 250, and the inner cavity of the extraction powder cup 50 communicates with the grinding gap 250.

[0028] Further, the grinding chamber 210 and the housing 100 are connected by means of threads, snap-fits, buckles, or existing connection structures.

[0029] In this embodiment, the driving mechanism 110 includes a reduction mechanism connected to a driving motor.

[0030] In the grinding mode, the driving mechanism 110 is powered on and started to drive the first rotating shaft 240 to rotate, so as to drive the inner cutter head 230 to rotate relative to the outer cutter head 220, thereby grinding the coffee beans located therebetween. The ground coffee powder obtained after grinding falls from the grinding gap 250 into the extraction powder cup 50 below.

[0031] See Figure 1 andFigure 2 The upper end of the first rotating shaft 240 is in transmission connection with the driving mechanism 110; the lower end of the first rotating shaft 240 is connected with a powder distributing device 60, and the powder distributing device 60 is located below the grinding gap 250.

[0032] At least a part of the powder distributing device 60 is located in the extraction powder cup 50.

[0033] The powder distributing device 60 is columnar or drum-shaped, and the powder distributing device 60 rotates together with the first rotating shaft 240.

[0034] The coffee powder falling downward from the grinding gap 250 can uniformly fall into the extraction powder cup 50 under the action of the powder distributing device 60. During the grinding process, the powder distributing device 60 rotates together with the first rotating shaft 240, and under the acting force of rotation, the coffee powder can be more evenly distributed.

[0035] See Figures 3 to 7 The water injection assembly 30 includes a water injection chamber 310 connected to the machine housing 100. A water outlet 311 is provided at the bottom of the water injection chamber 310. A water injector 320 for controlling the opening and closing of the water outlet 311 is provided below the water injection chamber 310. The water injector 320 is fixedly connected to a second rotating shaft 350. The second rotating shaft 350 is movably and rotationally arranged relative to the water injection chamber 310 up and down together with the water injector 320; the second rotating shaft 350 is in transmission connection with the driving mechanism 110; a water sealing spring 330 for applying an upward acting force to the second rotating shaft 350 or the water injector 320 is provided on the water injection chamber 310. The elastic acting force of the water sealing spring 330 drives the water injector 320 to cooperate with the water injection chamber 310 to keep the water outlet 311 in a closed state; when the second rotating shaft 350 is in plug-in transmission with the driving mechanism 110, it drives the second rotating shaft 350 and the water injector 320 to move downward relative to the water injection chamber 310, so that the water outlet 311 is in an open state.

[0036] When the water injection assembly 30 is not assembled with the machine body 10, under the action of the water sealing spring 330, the water injector 320 fits the water outlet 311, and the water outlet 311 is in a closed state.

[0037] When injecting water, first connect the water injection assembly 30 with the drinking cup 40, and the extraction powder cup 50 is located inside the drinking cup 40. Then, assemble the water injection assembly 30 with the machine body 10. During the assembly process, the second rotating shaft 350 is in plug-in transmission with the driving mechanism 110. During this process, the second rotating shaft 350 is pressed downward to drive the water injector 320 to move away from the water outlet 311, so that the water outlet 311 is in an open state, so that the extraction water in the drinking cup 40 flows downward through the water outlet 311 to the water injector 320.

[0038] In this embodiment, the second rotating shaft 350 is in transmission connection with the driving mechanism 110. The driving mechanism 110 drives the second rotating shaft 350 to rotate, thereby driving the water injector 320 to rotate. The rotation of the water injector 320 can evenly distribute the water flowing out from the water outlet 311 into the extraction powder cup 50, so that the coffee powder and water in the extraction powder cup 50 are fully mixed to achieve sufficient extraction.

[0039] Furthermore, during the downward movement of the second rotating shaft 350 and the water injector 320, the water sealing spring 330 is compressed to store energy. When the water injection assembly 30 is disassembled and separated from the machine body 10, the water sealing spring 330 will release the stored energy without restraint, driving the second rotating shaft 350 and the water injector 320 to move upward to close the water outlet 311 again.

[0040] A first coupler is provided on the speed reduction mechanism of the driving mechanism 110, and second couplers corresponding to the first coupler are respectively provided at the end portions of the first rotating shaft 240 and the second rotating shaft 350. The second coupler and the first coupler are in transmission connection through plug-in cooperation. Thus, the driving mechanism 110 can drive the first rotating shaft 240 or the second rotating shaft 350 to rotate.

[0041] See Figure 3 , a fixed sleeve 340 is provided in the water injection chamber 310, and the second rotating shaft 350 is arranged in the fixed sleeve 340; a spring end cover 360 that moves up and down relative to the fixed sleeve 340 is provided in the fixed sleeve 340, and the second rotating shaft 350 is rotatably arranged in the spring end cover 360; the water sealing spring 330 is arranged in the fixed sleeve 340 and sleeved on the second rotating shaft 350, the lower end of the water sealing spring 330 is connected to the water injection chamber 310, and its upper end is connected to the spring end cover 360.

[0042] A water distribution chamber 321 with an open upper end and communicating with the water outlet 311 is provided in the water injector 320. The bottom of the water injector 320 is provided with water injection ports 322. There are two or more water injection ports 322 arranged circumferentially, and the opening directions of the water injection ports 322 face the extraction powder cup 50 located in the drinking cup 40.

[0043] A sealing portion 323 is provided on the water injector 320. The sealing portion 323 cooperates with the water injection chamber 310 to keep the water outlet 311 in a closed state.

[0044] The bottom of the extraction powder cup 50 is provided with extraction holes or filter holes 510.

[0045] The water outlet 311 is arranged inside the bottom of the fixed sleeve 340, and a communication port 341 is arranged at the bottom of the fixed sleeve 340. The water located in the water injection chamber 310 enters the fixed sleeve 340 through the communication port 341 and then flows to the water outlet 311.

[0046] Furthermore, the second rotating shaft 350 is rotatably arranged on the spring end cover 360 by means of bearings.

[0047] In this embodiment, the water flowing out from the water outlet 311 enters the water distribution chamber 321 and then flows downward from the water injection port 322 into the extraction powder cup 50. Under the action of the water injector 320 being driven to rotate by the second rotating shaft 350, the originally vertically falling water column will fall into the extraction powder cup 50 in a spiral shape, so as to be evenly distributed in the extraction powder cup 50.
