[0040] The utility model provides a beverage preparation device, which can be but not limited to a coffee machine, a soybean milk machine or a juicer, etc. In the following, for the convenience of description, a coffee machine will be used as an example for specific description, and other devices can be implemented with reference to adaptability.
[0041] Among them, the beverage preparation equipment includes a weighing module, which can be used to weigh the weight of coffee powder, so that the amount of coffee powder used in each type of coffee in the process of making coffee can be quantified to improve the quality of coffee.
[0042] Specifically, see Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 4 The weighing module 100 includes a weighing chassis 1 and a weighing module 2. The weighing chassis 1 can support and fix the weighing module 2 at a certain height, so as to facilitate the taking and discharging of materials from the weighing container 21 in the weighing module 2.
[0043] Among them, at least part of the weighing module 2 is arranged toward the first side of the weighing chassis 1 to protrude from the chassis body; at least part of the two clamping parts 113 of the weighing chassis 1 are arranged toward the second side of the chassis body to protrude from the chassis body, and the first side and the second side are opposite sides of the chassis body.
[0044] In the present embodiment, since the weighing module 2 is arranged on the chassis body with one side thereof protruding from the first side of the chassis body, specifically, the weighing container 21 of the weighing module 2 can be protruding from one side of the chassis body to facilitate the reception and transfer of material powder (such as coffee powder), so that the center of gravity of the entire weighing module 100 will be biased toward the first side. By protruding the two clamping parts 113 on the second side of the chassis body, and the first side and the second side are opposite, the overall center of gravity of the weighing module 100 is more centered, and the entire weighing module 100 is also more stable and not easy to tip toward one side, which can better ensure the stability of the weighing module 100, thereby ensuring the weighing accuracy of the weighing module 100.
[0045] For the weighing chassis 1, the weighing chassis 1 includes a chassis body, two clamping parts 113 and a first connecting part 115, and a positioning groove 116 is formed at the bottom of the chassis body; the two clamping parts 113 are respectively located on both sides of the positioning groove 116, and can be clamped on the external structure along the first direction; the first connecting part 115 is arranged on the chassis body and is suitable for forming a fixed connection with the external structure along the first direction.
[0046] By providing a positioning groove 116 at the bottom of the chassis main body, the fixed position of the weighing chassis 1 can be quickly found through the positioning groove 116, enabling the quick preliminary positioning of the weighing chassis 1 and effectively preventing misoperation. The chassis main body can be clamped to the external structure through two clamping portions 113 to form positioning in the horizontal direction. Then, it is further connected and fixed to the external structure through the first connecting portion 115. Moreover, the clamping direction of the clamping portion 113 is the same as the connecting direction of the first connecting portion 115, preventing the weighing chassis 1 from disengaging from the clamping portion 113, thereby completely fixing the weighing chassis 1. Additionally, by clamping the two clamping portions 113, compared with the connection method using all screws, precise alignment of each hole is not required. The installation operation of the weighing chassis 1 is more convenient, and the manufacturing accuracy requirements for the weighing chassis 1 are lower, resulting in lower manufacturing costs. Furthermore, through the first connecting portion 115 and the two clamping portions 113, three fixing points for connecting to the external structure are formed, making the fixing of the weighing chassis 1 more reliable, less prone to shaking, and better ensuring the stability of the weighing module 100, thus guaranteeing the weighing accuracy of the weighing module 100.
[0047] Preferably, the two clamping portions 113 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the positioning groove 116, and the first connecting portion 115 and the two clamping portions 113 are arranged in a non-linear manner, that is, a triangular fixation is formed between the two clamping portions 113 and the first connecting portion 115, making the fixation of the chassis main body more reliable, and thus the fixation of the entire weighing module 100 more reliable and less prone to shaking.
[0048] Preferably, in combination Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the first connecting portion 115 is provided as a first connecting hole 1151, the first connecting hole 1151 extends along the first direction, each clamping portion 113 can be provided as a clamping groove 1131, each clamping groove 1131 extends along the first direction, and the side of each clamping groove 1131 facing away from the first connecting portion 115 is open. The weighing chassis 1 can be clamped to the external structure from the open side of the clamping groove 1131 to quickly achieve the positioning of the weighing chassis 1 in the horizontal direction, enabling the first connecting hole 1151 to quickly align with the mounting hole on the external structure.
[0049] Specifically, the weighing module 100 may further include a plurality of connecting members. The connecting members can be set as screws or bolts, etc. One of the connecting members is passed through the first connecting hole 1151 and the corresponding mounting hole on the external structure (such as a coffee machine housing or a brewing module of a coffee machine) to fix the first connecting portion 115 to the external structure.
[0050] Moreover, studs may be provided on the external structure that is snap-fitted to the card slot 1131. The two card slots 1131 are snap-fitted to the corresponding two studs, and then another two connectors are passed through the corresponding two card slots 1131 and the mounting holes on the corresponding studs of the external structure to fix the card connection portion 113 to the external structure, thereby further enhancing the connection strength and making the connection more stable.
[0051] Of course, the setting methods of the first connection portion 115 and the card connection portion 113 are not limited to the above one. In other embodiments, the first connection portion 115 and the card connection portion 113 may be set as a hook structure, or a magnetic attraction structure, or a combination of a hook and a screw, etc.
[0052] It should be noted that when the weighing module 100 is working normally, the weighing module 2 may be located at the top of the chassis main body. The first connection hole 1151 may be extended and arranged in the horizontal direction. Preferably, the first direction is along the front-back direction of the chassis main body, and the first connection hole 1151 is also extended and arranged along the front-back direction of the chassis main body. The groove depth direction of the card slot 1131 is arranged in the up-down direction. Thus, after the two card connection portions 113 are fixed by two connectors, the weighing module 100 is restricted from moving in the up-down direction, and the weighing module 100 can be further restricted from moving in the horizontal direction through the first connection portion 115, making the fixation of the weighing module 100 more reliable.
[0053] Moreover, in combination Figure 1 and Figure 3 as shown in, the card slot 1131 is a long hole in a "U" shape, and one end of the long hole is open. During installation, the stud can extend into the long hole from the open end of the long hole, and then a screw is passed through the stud and pressed against the inner side of the hole side wall of the long hole, thereby connecting and fixing the card slot 1131 and the stud of the external structure. Moreover, due to the long hole, when the size of the external structure changes slightly, the stud on the external structure can be correspondingly connected to different positions of the long hole, making the installation operation more convenient, the adaptability of the installation better, and the requirement for the installation accuracy of the connection portion not too high, thus reducing the manufacturing cost.
[0054] Specifically, for the chassis main body, in combination Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown, the chassis main body includes a weighing base 11 and a support frame 12. The weighing base 11 is arranged in a substantially square block shape. The first connecting portion 115 and the two clamping portions 113 are both provided on the weighing base 11 and are arranged in a non-linear manner to ensure the formation of a triangular connection relationship, making the fixation of the weighing base 11 more stable. The support frame 12 is connected to the weighing base 11. The weighing module 2 is provided on the support frame 12 and is located on opposite sides of the support frame 12 with respect to the weighing base 11.

The weighing module 2 is fixed at a certain height through the support frame 12 to facilitate the installation of the weighing container 21 on the weighing module 2.
[0055] Further, as shown in Figure 4 As shown, the weighing base 11 includes symmetrically arranged first base body 111 and second base body 112, and a connecting plate 114 connected between the first base body 111 and the second base body 112. The two clamping portions 113 are respectively provided on the first base body 111 and the second base body 112. The connecting plate 114 is arranged in a stepped shape. The first connecting portion 115 is provided on the connecting wall of the connecting plate 114 connecting the upper step wall and the lower step wall, so that a certain distance is also formed between the first connecting hole 1151 and the two card slots 1131 in the vertical direction, making the weighing base 11 form a triangular fixation in space and the fixation is more reliable. The positioning groove 116 is provided at the bottom of the connecting plate 114 to facilitate positioning when installing the weighing chassis 1. Among them, the structures of the first base body 111 and the second base body 112 are substantially the same, and the first base body 111, the second base body 112 and the connecting plate 114 are integrally formed, making the mold structure simpler and the production of the weighing base 11 more convenient.
[0056] Preferably, the weighing base 11 can be a plastic part, and the support frame 12 is set as a sheet metal part. The support frame 12 surrounds the outer peripheral side of the weighing base 11. A receiving cavity is formed by the support frame 12 and the weighing base 11 together. The weight of the weighing base 11 can be increased through the support frame 12 to ensure the stability of the entire chassis main body and at the same time have better structural strength. The support frame 12 is provided with an avoidance opening 1212 corresponding to the first connecting portion 115, and a first flanging 1211 that bends inward is provided on one side of the avoidance opening 1212. The connecting piece can extend into the first connecting hole 1151 from the avoidance opening 1212 for better installation. Moreover, the first flanging 1211 is bent in the direction towards the first connecting hole 1151. The end of the connecting piece provided at the first connecting hole 1151 can be abutted by the first flanging 1211 to prevent the connecting piece from falling off.
[0057] Furthermore, the support frame 12 includes a first support wall 121, and two second support walls 122 respectively arranged on opposite sides of the first support wall 121. Specifically, when the first support wall 121 is located at the front end of the weighing module 100, the two second support walls 122 are respectively located on the left and right sides of the weighing module 100. The avoidance opening 1212 is arranged on the first support wall 121, and the two second support walls 122 are both provided with a second flange 1221, and each second flange 1221 is respectively correspondingly abutted against the first seat body 111 and the second seat body 112, and the second flange 1221 abuts against the corresponding seat body to play a certain supporting role, thereby ensuring the stability of the support frame 12.
[0058] For weighing module 2, combined Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the weighing module 2 includes a weighing container 21, a cover structure 22 and a cover driving structure 23.
