[0002] A coffee machine is a device used to make coffee. Its control unit includes an operating panel, a main control panel, and a mounting bracket. The main control panel is mounted on top of the mounting bracket, and a mounting plate is provided at the bottom of the mounting bracket. The operating panel is mounted on one side of the mounting plate, and the operating panel and the main control panel are electrically connected via a flat cable. The specific structure of the flat cable electrical connection is as follows: first, both the main control panel and the operating panel are provided with a male GND terminal block, and the terminal blocks on the two panels are electrically connected via a flat cable. The flat cable has its own female terminal block. Therefore, when making an electrical connection, the two ends of the flat cable are plugged into the male terminal blocks on the operating panel and the main control panel, respectively, to complete the connection.

[0003] It can be seen that a wired electrical connection is used. Therefore, when the entire control unit is installed in the coffee machine cup body, the wiring is in a free state, so there is a risk of being squeezed. It is also possible to be scratched by the sharp structural burrs in the cup body and the sharp corners on the ribs, causing wear and tear, thereby increasing the defective rate of the control unit.

[0029] The specific implementation of the present invention is further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0030] like Figure 1-Figure 5 As shown, the installation structure of the control panel includes a mounting frame 1, a main control board 2 and an operation panel 3, and the main control board 2 is arranged on the top of the mounting frame 1, and the mounting frame 1 is provided with a socket 11, and the main control board 2 is provided with a socket 2 21 corresponding to the socket 11.

[0031] The main control board 2 is also equipped with at least one welding slot 22 on both sides of the second plug-in interface 21. The top of the operating panel 3 passes through the first plug-in interface 11 and the second plug-in interface 21 in sequence and emerges. A welding block 23 is provided between the welding slot 22 and the side of the exposed end of the operating panel 3, and a connection is achieved through welding. Therefore, in actual use, the top of the operating panel 3 passes through the main control board 2 and emerges. The main control board 2 and the operating panel 3 are welded together to set the operating panel 3 on the main control board 2 and achieve an electrical connection. Therefore, the electrical connection through welding replaces the electrical connection of the cable, thus eliminating the use of a wired connection method and thus preventing the possibility of the cable being squeezed or worn.

[0032] At the same time, the welding process is relatively easy to operate, thus saving working hours, and the welding block occupies relatively little space, thus not hindering the use of space in other locations of the main control board.

[0033] The soldering slots 22 are specifically solder pads known in the art, and soldering in this embodiment can be performed using a soldering process. Furthermore, the number of soldering slots 22 can be selected based on practical needs and is not specifically limited. Specifically, it can be determined based on the number of circuits required between the main control board 2 and the operation board 3, and then the number of soldering slots 22 on both sides can be balanced. The number and layout of soldering slots 22 in this embodiment can be seen in the accompanying drawings, indicating that there can be seven soldering slots 22, namely, three on one side of the second plug interface 21 and four on the other side of the second plug interface 21.

[0034] Furthermore, the distance between every two adjacent welding grooves 22 is the same, thereby facilitating the welding process and avoiding safety issues.

[0035] At the same time, the welding block 23 is arched, and one end of the welding block 23 is located in the welding groove 22, and the other end of the welding block 23 is connected to the side surface of the operating panel 3 that is exposed at one end.

[0036] Therefore, in actual use, the arched setting can avoid sharp parts, so that the surface is smooth, the connection is stable, and the appearance is beautiful.

[0037] Secondly, Figure 5 As shown, the structure of the operating panel 3 is as follows: first, the operating panel 3 includes a plug-in portion 31 and a mounting portion 32, and the plug-in portion 31 is located at the top of the mounting portion 32, and abutment surfaces 34 are provided on both sides of the plug-in portion 31 at the top of the mounting portion 32. When the plug-in portion 31 passes through the plug interface 21 and is exposed, the abutment surface 34 abuts against the bottom of the mounting frame 1, and a welding block 23 is provided between the welding groove 22 and the side of the plug-in portion 31.

[0038] Therefore, in actual use, since the plug-in portion 31 is located at the top of the mounting portion 32, and abutment surfaces 34 are provided on both sides of the plug-in portion 31 at the top of the mounting portion 32, that is, the length of the plug-in portion 31 is smaller than the length of the mounting portion 32, it is stepped, so it can cooperate with the mounting frame 1, so that the position of the operating panel 3 is correct, and the relative position between the operating panel 3 and the main control panel 2 is ensured to be correct, thereby facilitating accurate welding.

[0039] At the same time Figure 1-Figure 5 As shown, the operating panel 3 is a long strip, and welding is only for installation at one end. Therefore, in order to ensure stable installation of the operating panel 3, a connection structure is provided between the operating panel 3 and the mounting frame 1, such as a snap connection or a fastener connection.

[0040] When it is a card connection, the specific structure is: first, a mounting plate 12 is provided at the bottom of the mounting frame 1 on one side of the plug interface 11, and a buckle 13 is provided on the side of the mounting plate 12 close to the plug interface 11, and a corresponding card interface 33 is opened on the operating panel 3.

[0041] Therefore, in actual use, the connection between the operating panel 3 and the mounting bracket 1 is achieved by the matching of the buckle 13 and the card interface 33 .

[0042] When it is connected by a fastener, that is, the mounting plate 12 and the operating plate 3 are connected by a fastener, and the fastener can be a screw. Specifically, the operating plate 3 is opened, and the mounting plate 12 is grooved, and one end of the fastener passes through the operating plate 3 and is threadedly connected to the mounting plate 12 to achieve connection.

[0043] like Figure 1-Figure 3 As shown, the structure between the main control board 2 and the mounting bracket 1 is as follows: first, a mounting hole 1 is defined in the middle of the main control board 2, and a mounting hole 2 is defined in the mounting bracket 1 corresponding to the mounting hole 1. The main control board 2 is mounted on the mounting bracket 1 by passing one end of a fastener through the mounting hole 1 and threading it into the mounting hole 2. The fastener can be a screw.

[0044] like Figures 1-4 As shown, other detailed structures of the mounting frame 1 are as follows: first, a mounting rod 14 for mounting the mounting frame 1 on the cup body is provided at the bottom of the mounting frame 1, and a support plate 15 is provided on the outside of the mounting rod 14 to provide support and increase strength;

[0045] At the same time, a protrusion 16 is provided on the outside of the mounting frame 1 , and the protrusion 16 can be matched with the groove on the cup body to limit the rotation of the mounting frame 1 .

[0046] The portable coffee machine of the present invention comprises a cup body, in which the mounting frame 1, the main control panel 2 and the operating panel 3 as described above are arranged, and buttons corresponding to the operating panel 3 are arranged on the cup body.

[0047] The above shows and describes the basic principles and main features of the present invention as well as the advantages of the present invention. At the same time, the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments. Therefore, various changes and improvements are possible without departing from the principles and scope of the present invention. Such changes and improvements fall within the scope of the present invention.
