Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of automatic brewing machines, and more specifically, to a powder receiving structure of an automatic beverage brewing machine. Background Art

[0002] A beverage machine is a device that makes beverages by adding water to beverage powders (such as soybean milk powder, coffee powder, orange juice powder). The powder box is a device in the beverage machine for storing powders. The existing powder box structure includes a powder box and a powder box cover. A feeding rod and a powder pulling wheel are arranged in the powder box in a matching manner, and a powder outlet nozzle is arranged at the lower part of the powder box. The powder outlet nozzle has a 90° elbow structure. In order to prevent powder leakage during powder addition, the powder outlet nozzle needs to be rotated 180° during powder addition to make the outlet face upward; after powder addition, the powder outlet nozzle is rotated 180° to return to its original position. After the powder outlet nozzle rotates many times, the connecting part will be worn, affecting the service life.

[0003] Such a structure is troublesome for powder addition. It is possible to forget to rotate the powder outlet nozzle before and after powder addition. In addition, after powder addition, when the powder outlet nozzle is rotated back to its original position, the beverage powder in the powder outlet nozzle will leak and cause waste.

[0004] In view of the above defects, some manufacturers have developed a powder box. A baffle is arranged at the lower part inside the powder outlet nozzle, and an assembly groove is opened at the upper part of the powder outlet nozzle. An activity baffle is arranged in the assembly groove. The activity baffle is rotatably connected to the powder outlet nozzle, and the activity baffle has a semi-circular structure. During powder addition, the activity baffle closes to form a complete baffle that closes the powder outlet channel in the powder outlet nozzle, so as to solve the waste of powder.

[0005] However, in this structure, the activity baffle needs to be manually opened or closed, and its structure has room for further improvement. Moreover, when the baffle is opened or closed, due to the control time error, there will still be some powder leakage, resulting in the powder flying in the automatic beverage brewing machine cannot be completely avoided, leading to a high failure rate of the equipment and a short service life of the equipment.

[0006] Therefore, it is necessary to propose a powder receiving structure of an automatic beverage brewing machine to solve the above technical problems. Summary of the Utility Model
