A push plate 13 is fixedly installed at one end of the cylinder 68. The push plate 13 is connected to one of the plurality of third fixing plates 66. By driving and controlling the cylinder 68 through the control module 3, one end of the cylinder 68 drives the push plate 13 to move downward, so that the push plate 13 pushes the third fixing plate 66 downward. At the same time, the third fixing plate 66 drives the round tube three 63 to slide downward in the corresponding installation groove 14. At the same time, the round tube three 63 drives the corresponding second fixing plate 64 to move synchronously, so that the second fixing plate 64 compresses the corresponding spring 65.

[0029] In this embodiment, the motor 67 is fixedly installed on the first fixing plate 5. The output end of the motor 67 is fixedly connected to a first gear 11. A second gear 12 is meshed with the first gear 11. The second gear 12 is fixedly connected to the transmission rod 61. By driving and controlling the motor 67 through the control module 3, the output end of the motor 67 drives the first gear 11 to rotate a certain angle. At the same time, the meshing transmission between the first gear 11 and the second gear 12 makes the second gear 12 drive the transmission rod 61 to rotate a certain angle on the first fixing plate 5. At the same time, the transmission rod 61 drives the round plate 62 to rotate synchronously, so that one end of one of the plurality of round tubes three 63 corresponds to one end of the round tube one 8.

[0030] In this embodiment, one ends of the plurality of hoses 10 are respectively and sealingly connected to one ends of the plurality of third round tubes 63. A plurality of first sliding grooves 15 are formed in the round plate 62, and the plurality of third fixing plates 66 slide in the plurality of first sliding grooves 15 respectively, which is a detachable connection.

[0031] In this embodiment, the motor 67, the air cylinder 68, and the liquid pump 7 are all connected to the control module 3, and the control module is used to control and drive the motor 67, the air cylinder 68, and the liquid pump 7.

[0032] Working principle: During use, the sequence of adding additives is adjusted according to the amount of water in the blending tank body 2. According to the ratio of the beverage, the ingredients to be added are respectively corresponding to set pressure alarm values, and different pressure alarm values are respectively corresponding to the plurality of third round tubes 63. Then, the control module is used to control and drive the motor 67, the air cylinder 68, and the liquid pump 7.

[0033] Through the drive control of the control module 3 over the motor 67, the output end of the motor 67 drives the first gear 11 to rotate a certain angle. At the same time, the first gear 11 meshes with and drives the second gear 12, so that the second gear 12 drives the transmission rod 61 to rotate a certain angle on the first fixing plate 5. At the same time, the transmission rod 61 drives the circular plate 62 to rotate synchronously, so that one of the plurality of third circular tubes 63 has one end corresponding to one end of the first circular tube 8, and the corresponding third fixing plate 66 corresponds to the cylinder 68 and the motor 67 is stopped. Then, through the drive control of the control module 3 over the cylinder 68, one end of the cylinder 68 drives the push plate 13 to move downward, so that the push plate 13 pushes the third fixing plate 66 downward. At the same time, the third fixing plate 66 drives the third circular tube 63 to slide downward in the corresponding installation groove 14. At the same time, the third circular tube 63 drives the corresponding second fixing plate 64 to move synchronously, so that the second fixing plate 64 compresses the corresponding spring 65. During this process, one end of the third circular tube 63 drives the corresponding conical sealing plug 69 to insert into the first circular tube 8, and makes the conical sealing plug 69 fit tightly with the first circular tube 8, so as to achieve the effect of sealing connection between the third circular tube 63 and the first circular tube 8. After that, the cylinder 68 is stopped and the control module 3 controls the liquid pump 7 to drive, so that the liquid pump 7 extracts the additive in the corresponding proportioning tank 4 through the first circular tube 8, the corresponding third circular tube 63 and the hose 10, and transports it to the blending tank body 2 through the second circular tube 9, so that the pressure value in the blending tank body 2 continuously increases. When the pressure value in the blending tank body 2 reaches the preset pressure alarm value, the liquid pump 7 is stopped and the control module 3 controls the cylinder 68 to drive in the reverse direction. At the same time, under the action of the spring 65, the third circular tube 63 is pulled out of the first circular tube 8, and the third circular tube 63 returns to its original state. Then the control module 3 controls the motor 67 to drive again, and again makes one of the plurality of third circular tubes 63 correspond to the first circular tube 8 again, so as to achieve the effect of transporting the additive in sequence.

[0034] The technical progress obtained by the present utility model compared with the prior art is that through the cooperation of each component, not only can the sequence of additives be adjusted according to the amount of internal water, but also it is convenient to supplement additives in different proportioning tanks 4.
