The design of the bean box usually includes a storage chamber for storing coffee beans and is equipped with a bean outlet that allows the coffee beans to flow out to the next processing step of the coffee machine.
[0003] When the bean box is removed from the coffee machine, the bean outlet is exposed, thus easily triggering the opening mechanism of the bean outlet. This means that once the bean box is detached from the coffee machine, the bean outlet may automatically open, causing the coffee beans to spill out. This not only results in waste of coffee beans but also brings inconvenience to the user, who needs to spend time cleaning up the spilled coffee beans, thus leading to a decline in the customer experience.
[0004] The purpose of the utility model is to solve the problem that when the traditional bean box is removed from the coffee machine and after it is removed, it is easy to trigger the mechanism to open the bean outlet, resulting in the spilling of coffee beans. Summary of the Utility Model

[0030] The following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present utility model with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, rather than all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts belong to the scope of protection of the present utility model.
[0031] Such as Figures 1 to 9As shown in the figure, an embodiment of the present utility model provides a coffee bean sealing device and a coffee machine. The coffee machine includes a coffee machine main body and a coffee bean sealing device. The coffee bean sealing device includes a bean box 1 and a baffle 2. The baffle 2 is rotatably connected to the bean box 1. The bean box 1 is provided with a first bean outlet 14. An elastic member 23 is installed on the baffle 2. One end of the elastic member 23 is connected to the baffle 2, and the other end of the elastic member 23 is connected to the bean box 1. The baffle 2 is provided with a second bean outlet 28. A convex block 24 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the baffle 2. The convex block 24 passes through a third bean outlet 34 and is arranged outside the bean box lock cover 3. The convex block 24 can facilitate the user to rotate the baffle 2 and can limit the rotation range of the baffle 2. Specifically, the convex block 24 can only move within the range of the third bean outlet 34. When it exceeds the range of the third bean outlet 34, it will be blocked by the side wall of the third bean outlet 34, thereby preventing the baffle 2 from rotating excessively and causing damage to the elastic member 23, and prolonging the service life of the elastic member 23. The coffee machine main body is provided with a limiting member for limiting the convex block 24. The bean box 1 is used to store the coffee beans required by the coffee machine. The elastic member 23 can provide a closing force for the baffle 2, so that the baffle 2 blocks the first bean outlet 14 without external force. Specifically, the coffee bean sealing device is divided into three states: an initial state, a use state, and a disassembly state. In the initial state, without external force, the closing force provided by the elastic member 23 causes the baffle 2 to cover the first bean outlet 14 of the bean box 1. At this time, the second bean outlet 28 on the baffle does not overlap with the first bean outlet 14, so that the coffee beans cannot flow out of the bean box. In the use state, the coffee bean sealing device is installed on the coffee machine. The limiting member on the coffee machine will block on one side of the convex block 24, thereby blocking the rotation of the baffle 2, so that the baffle 2 overcomes the closing force of the elastic member 23. When the bean box 1 rotates, the baffle 2 cannot rotate due to the block of the convex block 24, so that there is an overlapping part between the first bean outlet 14 and the second bean outlet 28, so that the coffee beans in the bean box 1 flow out. In the disassembly state, the bean box 1 is removed from the coffee machine. After removal, due to the loss of the external force applied by the limiting member, the baffle 2 rotates reversely under the action of the elastic member 23 and covers the first bean outlet 14 again. The second bean outlet 28 of the baffle 2 is no longer aligned with the first bean outlet 14, and the coffee beans are blocked by the baffle 2 and cannot flow out, thus avoiding the problem of coffee beans scattering during handling or storage. In the initial state and the disassembly state, even if the baffle 2 rotates accidentally for some reason, the elastic member 23 can still quickly reset the baffle 2 and re-close the first bean outlet 14, thereby quickly cutting off the outflow path of the coffee beans.
[0032] Further, as a preferred embodiment of the present invention rather than a limitation, a cylinder body 11 is provided inside the inner cavity of the bean box 1. A rod body 21 is sleeved inside the cylinder body 11. The rod body 21 is rotatably connected to the cylinder body 11. One end of the rod body 21 is fixedly connected to the baffle 2. The elastic member 23 is sleeved and installed outside the rod body 21. The baffle 2 is provided with a clamping member 22. One end of the elastic member 23 is connected to the clamping member 22. The elastic member 23 is a torsion spring. When the baffle 2 rotates, it will drive the rod body 21 to rotate inside the cylinder body 11. The cooperation between the rod body 21 and the cylinder body 11 can limit the baffle 2, thereby enhancing the stability of the baffle 2. The torsion spring provides a restoring force for the baffle 2 to ensure that the baffle 2 can quickly return to the initial position. Specifically, when the baffle 2 rotates, the clamping member 22 will drive one end of the torsion spring to move. One end of the torsion spring will apply a thrust to the clamping member 22 due to elasticity. When there is no external force acting on the baffle 2, one end of the torsion spring will push the clamping member 22 to reset, thereby realizing the reset of the baffle 2.
[0033] Optionally, in some embodiments, the clamping member 22 is a protrusion.
[0034] Optionally, in some embodiments, the clamping member 22 is a groove.
[0035] Further, as a preferred embodiment of the present invention rather than a limitation, a bean box lock cover 3 is installed at the bottom of the bean box 1. The bean box lock cover 3 is provided with a third bean outlet 34. The third bean outlet 34 is arranged directly below the first bean outlet 14. One end of the convex block 24 passes through the third bean outlet 34 and is arranged outside the bean box lock cover 3. The bean box lock cover 3 is provided with a structure for connecting to the coffee machine. Since the second bean outlet 28 of the baffle 2 does not overlap with the first bean outlet 14 in the initial state and the disassembled state, the second bean outlet 28 will not overlap with the third bean outlet 34 either. The bean box lock cover 3 provides support for the baffle 2, so the stability of the baffle 2 can be further enhanced.
[0036] Further, as a preferred embodiment of the present invention rather than a limitation, a blocking block 25 is fixedly connected to one side of the convex block 24. In the initial state, the blocking block 25 contacts one end of the third bean outlet 34. A space is formed between the blocking block 25 and the convex block 24, which is convenient for users to better grasp the convex block 24 and further facilitates the user to rotate the baffle 2. The space formed between the blocking block 25 and the convex block 24 also helps the coffee machine to position the convex block 24. Specifically, an object can be inserted into the space formed between the blocking block 25 and the convex block 24 to block one side of the convex block 24 to limit the movement of the convex block 24 in the direction of the object.
[0037] Further, as a preferred embodiment of the present invention rather than a limitation, a deflector plate 12 inclined towards the first bean outlet 14 is installed in the bean box 1, and the deflector plate 12 is fixedly connected to the barrel 11. The deflector plate 12 can direct the coffee beans in the bean box 1 towards the bean outlet, ensuring the smooth outflow of the coffee beans and reducing the residue inside the bean box.
[0038] Further, as a preferred embodiment of the present invention rather than a limitation, at least one threaded cylinder 16 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the deflector plate 12. The inner cavity of the threaded cylinder 16 is provided with threads for connecting bolts. The bean box lock cover 3 is provided with at least one countersunk hole 31, and the baffle 2 is provided with at least one arc-shaped through groove 27 for the threaded cylinder 16 to extend into. The bean box lock cover 3 and the deflector plate 12 can be connected together by using bolts. Specifically, when the bean box lock cover 3 is arranged at the bottom of the bean box 1, pay attention to aligning the countersunk hole 31 with the threaded cylinder 16. The function of the arc-shaped through groove 27 is to provide a space for accommodating the threaded cylinder 16. At the same time, due to the certain arc and length of the arc-shaped through groove 27, when the baffle 2 rotates, the threaded cylinder 16 will not obstruct the baffle 2. Further, a bolt is screwed into the countersunk hole 31, and the bolt passes through the countersunk hole 31 and enters the threaded cylinder 16 and is threadedly connected with the threaded cylinder 16 until tightened, thereby realizing the connection between the bean box lock cover 3 and the deflector plate 12, further realizing the connection between the bean box lock cover 3 and the bean box 1. The baffle 2 is located between the bean box lock cover 3 and the deflector plate 12 and is limited by the two, thus preventing the baffle 2 from falling off and strengthening the stability of the baffle 2.
[0039] Further, as a preferred embodiment of the present invention rather than a limitation, the bean box lock cover 3 is provided with a card slot 33, and a snap ring 26 is arranged at the bottom of the baffle 2. The snap ring 26 is snap-fitted with the card slot 33. The snap-fitting of the snap ring 26 and the card slot 33 can improve the stability of the baffle 2 when it rotates. Specifically, when the baffle 2 rotates, it will drive the snap ring 26 to rotate, but the snap ring 26 can only rotate within the card slot 33, so the baffle 2 can only rotate at a specific position and will not shift.
[0040] Further, as a preferred embodiment of the present invention rather than a limitation, at least one limiting groove 15 is provided at the bottom of the bean box 1, and at least one limiting block 32 matching the limiting groove 15 is arranged on the inner wall of the bean box lock cover 3. When the baffle 2 rotates, it will drive one end of the elastic member 23 to move, thereby deforming the dynamic elastic member 23 to form an elastic force. At this time, the bean box 1 is affected by the elastic force of the elastic member 23, and the bean box 1 will always feel a force to rotate to one side. Since the bean box lock cover 3 is connected to the bean box lock cover 3 through the threaded cylinder 16, this force will also be transmitted to the upper bean box lock cover 3 through the threaded cylinder 16. The engagement of the limiting groove 15 and the limiting block 32 can disperse the force received by the threaded cylinder 16, reduce the stress concentration at the threaded connection, extend the service life of the threaded cylinder 16, and make the connection between the bean box lock cover 3 and the bean box 1 more stable.
[0041] Further, as a preferred embodiment of the present invention rather than a limitation, a bean box cover 5 is covered on the top of the bean box 1. The bean box cover 5 can prevent coffee beans from leaking out of the top of the bean box 1. At the same time, the bean box cover 5 prevents dust and other impurities from entering the bean box 1 and contaminating the coffee beans, further improving the overall sealing performance and sanitary conditions of the device. The bean box cover 5 can be opened when needed to add coffee beans or for cleaning.
[0042] Further, as a preferred embodiment of the present invention rather than a limitation, a positioning groove 13 is provided at the top of the cylinder body 11. A retaining cover 4 is installed at the top of the cylinder body 11. The top surface of the retaining cover 4 is a downwardly inclined arc surface. The retaining cover 4 includes a connecting rod 41. The connecting rod 41 is sleeved inside the cylinder body 11. A positioning block 42 is provided on one side of the connecting rod 41. The positioning block 42 is clamped with the positioning groove 13. When the coffee beans enter the bean box 1 from the top of the bean box 1, they will contact the retaining cover 4, and the retaining cover 4 will deflect the coffee beans around, thus preventing the coffee beans from accumulating in the bean box 1 and helping to divert the coffee beans.
[0043] Optionally, in some embodiments, the connecting rod 41 is sleeved outside the cylinder body 11. A positioning block 42 is provided on one side of the cylinder body 11. The connecting rod 41 is provided with a positioning groove 13 that is clamped with the positioning block 42. Through the clamping of the positioning block 42 and the positioning groove 13, the retaining cover 4 can be positioned on the cylinder body 11 to prevent the retaining cover 4 from rotating or shifting.
[0044] The present utility model also discloses a coffee machine, including a coffee machine main body and a bean sealing device. The coffee machine main body is provided with a limiting member for limiting the convex block 24
[0045] Embodiment 1:
[0046] A coffee bean sealing device and a coffee machine. The coffee machine includes a coffee machine main body and a coffee bean sealing device. The coffee bean sealing device includes a bean box 1 and a baffle 2. The baffle 2 is rotatably connected to the bean box 1. The bean box 1 is provided with a first bean outlet 14. An elastic member 23 is installed on the baffle 2. One end of the elastic member 23 is connected to the baffle 2, and the other end of the elastic member 23 is connected to the bean box 1. The baffle 2 is provided with a second bean outlet 28. A convex block 24 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the baffle 2. The convex block 24 passes through a third bean outlet 34 and is arranged outside a bean box lock cover 3. The convex block 24 can facilitate a user to rotate the baffle 2 and can limit the rotation range of the baffle 2. Specifically, the convex block 24 can only move within the range of the third bean outlet 34. When it exceeds the range of the third bean outlet 34, it will be blocked by the side wall of the third bean outlet 34, thereby preventing the baffle 2 from rotating excessively and damaging the elastic member 23, and prolonging the service life of the elastic member 23. The coffee machine main body is provided with a limiting member for limiting the convex block 24. The bean box 1 is used for storing coffee beans required by the coffee machine. The elastic member 23 can provide a closing force for the baffle 2, so that the baffle 2 blocks the first bean outlet 14 without external force. Specifically, the coffee bean sealing device is divided into three states: an initial state, a use state, and a disassembly state. In the initial state, without external force, the closing force provided by the elastic member 23 causes the baffle 2 to cover the first bean outlet 14 of the bean box 1. At this time, the second bean outlet 28 on the baffle 2 does not overlap with the first bean outlet 14, so that the coffee beans cannot flow out of the bean box. In the use state, when the coffee bean sealing device is installed on the coffee machine, the limiting member on the coffee machine will block one side of the convex block 24, thereby blocking the rotation of the baffle 2, so that the baffle 2 overcomes the closing force of the elastic member 23. When the bean box 1 rotates, the baffle 2 cannot rotate due to the block of the convex block 24, so that there is an overlapping part between the first bean outlet 14 and the second bean outlet 28, so that the coffee beans in the bean box 1 flow out. In the disassembly state, the bean box 1 is removed from the coffee machine. After removal, due to the loss of the external force applied by the limiting member, the baffle 2 rotates reversely under the action of the elastic member 23 and covers the first bean outlet 14 again. The second bean outlet 28 of the baffle 2 is no longer aligned with the first bean outlet 14, and the coffee beans are blocked by the baffle 2 and cannot flow out, thus avoiding the problem of coffee beans scattering during handling or storage. In the initial state and the disassembly state, even if the baffle 2 rotates accidentally for some reason, the elastic member 23 can still quickly reset the baffle 2 and re-close the first bean outlet 14, thereby quickly cutting off the outflow path of the coffee beans.
[0047] The inner cavity of the bean box 1 is provided with a cylinder body 11. A rod body 21 is sleeved inside the cylinder body 11. The rod body 21 is rotatably connected to the cylinder body 11. One end of the rod body 21 is fixedly connected to the baffle 2. The elastic member 23 is sleeved and installed outside the rod body 21. The baffle 2 is provided with a clamping member 22. One end of the elastic member 23 is connected to the clamping member 22. The elastic member 23 is a torsion spring. When the baffle 2 rotates, it will drive the rod body 21 to rotate inside the cylinder body 11. The cooperation between the rod body 21 and the cylinder body 11 can limit the baffle 2, thereby enhancing the stability of the baffle 2. The torsion spring provides a restoring force for the baffle 2 to ensure that the baffle 2 can quickly return to the initial position. Specifically, when the baffle 2 rotates, the clamping member 22 will drive one end of the torsion spring to move. One end of the torsion spring will apply a thrust to the clamping member 22 due to elasticity. When there is no external force acting on the baffle 2, one end of the torsion spring will push the clamping member 22 to reset, thereby realizing the reset of the baffle 2.
[0048] A bean box lock cover 3 is installed at the bottom of the bean box 1. The bean box lock cover 3 is provided with a third bean outlet 34. The third bean outlet 34 is arranged directly below the first bean outlet 14. One end of the convex block 24 passes through the third bean outlet 34 and is arranged outside the bean box lock cover 3. The bean box lock cover 3 is provided with a structure for connecting to the coffee machine. Since the second bean outlet 28 of the baffle 2 does not overlap with the first bean outlet 14 in the initial state and the disassembly state, the second bean outlet 28 will not overlap with the third bean outlet 34 either. The bean box lock cover 3 provides support for the baffle 2, so it can further enhance the stability of the baffle 2.
[0049] A convex block 24 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the baffle 2. The convex block 24 passes through the third bean outlet 34 and is arranged outside the bean box lock cover 3. The convex block 24 can facilitate the user to rotate the baffle 2 and can also limit the rotation range of the baffle 2. Specifically, the convex block 24 can only move within the range of the third bean outlet 34. Moving beyond the range of the third bean outlet 34 will be blocked by the side wall of the third bean outlet 34, thereby preventing the baffle 2 from rotating excessively and damaging the elastic member 23, and prolonging the service life of the elastic member 23.
[0050] A stopper 25 is fixedly connected to one side of the convex block 24. In the initial state, the stopper 25 contacts one end of the third bean outlet 34, forming a space between the stopper 25 and the convex block 24, thereby facilitating the user to better grasp the convex block 24 and further facilitating the user to rotate the baffle 2. The space formed between the stopper 25 and the convex block 24 also helps the coffee machine to position the convex block 24. Specifically, an object can be inserted into the space formed between the stopper 25 and the convex block 24 to block one side of the convex block 24 to limit the movement of the convex block 24 in the direction of the object.
[0051] A deflector plate 12 inclined towards the first coffee bean outlet 14 is installed in the coffee bean box 1, and the deflector plate 12 is fixedly connected to the cylinder body 11. The deflector plate 12 can direct the coffee beans in the coffee bean box 1 towards the outlet, ensuring the smooth outflow of the coffee beans and reducing the residue inside the coffee bean box.
[0052] At least one threaded cylinder 16 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the deflector plate 12. The inner cavity of the threaded cylinder 16 is provided with threads for connecting bolts. The coffee bean box lid 3 is provided with at least one countersunk hole 31, and the baffle 2 is provided with at least one arc-shaped through groove 27 for the threaded cylinder 16 to extend into. The coffee bean box lid 3 and the deflector plate 12 can be connected together by using bolts. Specifically, when the coffee bean box lid 3 is arranged at the bottom of the coffee bean box 1, pay attention to aligning the countersunk hole 31 with the threaded cylinder 16. The function of the arc-shaped through groove 27 is to provide a space for accommodating the threaded cylinder 16. At the same time, due to the certain arc and length of the arc-shaped through groove 27, when the baffle 2 rotates, the threaded cylinder 16 will not hinder the baffle 2. Further, a bolt is screwed into the countersunk hole 31, and the bolt passes through the countersunk hole 31 and enters the threaded cylinder 16 and is threadedly connected with the threaded cylinder 16 until tightened, thereby realizing the connection between the coffee bean box lid 3 and the deflector plate 12, further realizing the connection between the coffee bean box lid 3 and the coffee bean box 1. The baffle 2 is located between the coffee bean box lid 3 and the deflector plate 12 and is limited by the two, thus preventing the baffle 2 from falling off and strengthening the stability of the baffle 2.
[0053] The coffee bean box lid 3 is provided with a card slot 33, and a snap ring 26 is arranged at the bottom of the baffle 2. The snap ring 26 is snap-fitted with the card slot 33. The snap-fitting of the snap ring 26 and the card slot 33 can improve the stability of the baffle 2 when it rotates. Specifically, when the baffle 2 rotates, it will drive the snap ring 26 to rotate, but the snap ring 26 can only rotate within the card slot 33, so the baffle 2 can only rotate at a specific position and will not shift.
[0054] The implementation manner of the second embodiment is as follows:
[0055] The difference between the second embodiment and the first embodiment is that a positioning groove 13 is provided at the top of the cylinder body 11, a baffle cover 4 is installed at the top of the cylinder body 11, the top surface of the baffle cover 4 is a downwardly inclined arc surface, the baffle cover 4 includes a connecting rod 41, the connecting rod 41 is sleeved inside the cylinder body 11, and a positioning block 42 is arranged on one side of the connecting rod 41. The positioning block 42 is snap-fitted with the positioning groove 13. When the coffee beans enter the coffee bean box 1 from the top of the coffee bean box 1, they will contact the baffle cover 4, and the baffle cover 4 will deflect the coffee beans around, thereby preventing the coffee beans from accumulating in the coffee bean box 1 and helping to guide the coffee beans.
[0056] The connecting rod 41 is sleeved outside the cylinder body 11. A positioning block 42 is arranged on one side of the cylinder body 11, and the connecting rod 41 is provided with a positioning groove 13 that is clamped with the positioning block 42. Through the clamping of the positioning block 42 and the positioning groove 13, the baffle 4 can be positioned on the cylinder body 11 to prevent the baffle 4 from rotating or shifting.
[0057] The difference between Embodiment 3 and Embodiment 1 is that
[0058] The implementation method of Embodiment 3 is as follows: At least one limiting groove 15 is opened at the bottom of the bean box 1, and at least one limiting block 32 that matches the limiting groove 15 is arranged on the inner wall of the bean box lock cover 3. When the baffle 2 rotates, one end of the elastic member 23 will be driven to move, so that the moving elastic member 23 deforms to form an elastic force. At this time, the bean box 1 is affected by the elastic force of the elastic member 23, and the bean box 1 will always feel a force that rotates to one side. Since the bean box lock cover 3 is connected to the bean box 1 through the threaded cylinder 16, this force will also be transmitted to the upper bean box lock cover 3 through the threaded cylinder 16. The clamping of the limiting groove 15 and the limiting block 32 can disperse the force received by the threaded cylinder 16, reduce the stress concentration at the threaded connection, extend the service life of the threaded cylinder 16, and make the connection between the bean box lock cover 3 and the bean box 1 more stable.
[0059] The difference between Embodiment 4 and Embodiment 1 is that
[0060] The implementation method of Embodiment 4 is as follows: A bean box cover 5 is covered on the top of the bean box 1. The bean box cover 5 can prevent coffee beans from leaking out of the top of the bean box 1. At the same time, the bean box cover 5 prevents dust and other impurities from entering the bean box 1 and contaminating the coffee beans, further improving the overall sealing performance and sanitary conditions of the device. The bean box cover 5 can be opened when needed to add coffee beans or perform cleaning.
[0061] Specifically, the working principle of the present invention is as follows:
[0062] When the bean sealing device is in an unused state, the baffle 2 covers the first bean outlet 14 of the bean box 1 under the closing force of the elastic member 23. At this time, the second bean outlet 28 on the baffle does not overlap with the first bean outlet 14, and the coffee beans cannot flow out of the bean box. The convex block 24 passes through the third bean outlet 34 and is arranged outside the bean box lock cover 3, which is convenient for users to rotate the baffle and can limit the rotation range of the baffle. One side of the convex block 24 is fixedly connected with a stop block 25. In the initial state, the stop block 25 contacts one end of the third bean outlet 34 to form a space for users to grasp the convex block 24, which further facilitates the users to rotate the baffle 2.
[0063] The bean box 1 is installed on the coffee machine through the structure of the bean box lock cover 3 for connecting with the coffee machine. When the bean sealing device is installed on the coffee machine, the coffee machine will apply a certain mechanical force to the baffle 2, so that the baffle overcomes the closing force of the elastic member 23. At this time, there is an overlapping part between the first bean outlet 14 and the second bean outlet 28, so that the coffee beans in the bean box 1 flow out. A threaded cylinder 16 is installed at the bottom of the deflector 12, and the bean box lock cover 3 and the deflector 12 are connected together by bolts, thus realizing the connection between the bean box lock cover 3 and the bean box 1, preventing the baffle 2 from falling off, and enhancing the stability of the baffle 2.
[0064] When the bean box 1 is removed from the coffee machine, due to the loss of the external force applied by the coffee machine, the baffle 2 rotates reversely under the action of the elastic member 23, thus covering the first bean outlet 14 again. The second bean outlet 28 of the baffle 2 is no longer aligned with the first bean outlet 14, and the coffee beans are blocked by the baffle 2 and cannot flow out, thus avoiding the problem of coffee beans scattering during handling or storage.
[0065] In summary, the present utility model solves the problem that the traditional bean box is likely to trigger the mechanism for opening the bean outlet when it is removed from the coffee machine and after removal, resulting in the scattering of coffee beans.
[0066] It should be understood that the terms "first", "second", etc. are used in the present utility model to describe various information, but these information should not be limited to these terms. These terms are only used to distinguish the same type of information from each other. For example, without departing from the scope of the present utility model, the "first" information can also be called "second" information, and similarly, the "second" information can also be called "first" information. In addition, the orientation or positional relationship indicated by the terms "center", "upper", "lower", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "inner", "outer", etc. is based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the drawings, and is only for the convenience of describing the present utility model and simplifying the description, rather than indicating or implying that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be construed as a limitation to the present utility model.
[0067] The above is the preferred embodiment of the present utility model. It should be noted that for those of ordinary skill in the art in the technical field, without departing from the principle of the present utility model, several improvements and deformations can still be made, and these improvements and deformations are also regarded as the protection scope of the present utility model.
