Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of tea sets, in particular to a magnetic tea maker. Background Art

[0002] The teapot with separate tea and water is a popular teaware design. This type of teapot typically consists of three main parts: the body, the tea compartment, and the lid. The body is the main structure of the teapot, used to hold the final tea. The tea compartment is a removable inner container, usually hooked into the mouth of the body, specifically for placing tea leaves and brewing them. The lid covers the opening of the tea compartment, providing insulation and a seal.

[0003] Regarding the above-mentioned teapot, on the one hand, since the tea compartment is contained within the pot body when combined with the pot body, the size of the tea compartment is usually limited by the size of the pot body and cannot be made larger. In the process of brewing tea in the tea compartment, the amount of water injected into the tea compartment is relatively small. Thus, repeated water injection is required to obtain the required amount of tea, resulting in a poor user experience. On the other hand, when the teapot is tilted to pour out the tea, there is a risk of the tea compartment falling off, and when the tea compartment is in the pot body, it is inconvenient to pour out the tea, for example, the tea compartment blocks the line of sight, making it difficult to observe the water level. On the other hand, the switch control of the water outlet at the bottom of the tea compartment is usually implemented by a lever mechanism, which controls the switch by pressing the pressing member and transmitting the pressure to the lever assembly. This structural design is complex, easily accumulates dirt, and is not easy to clean. Summary of the Invention

[0074] The magnetic tea maker according to the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0075] Reference Figures 1 to 7 As shown, the magnetic tea maker provided according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a carrier 10, a magnetic control seat, a tea compartment 30 and a pot body 40.

[0076] Specifically, the carrier 10 can be made of metal, high-strength plastic, wood or other materials, and the carrier 10 provides sufficient bottom support area to ensure that it can be placed on a flat surface such as a desktop and remain stable. In addition, the carrier 10 has a position or space for placing the kettle body 40.

[0077] The magnetic control seat is arranged on the carrier 10. The magnetic control seat uses a permanent magnet and / or an electromagnet to generate a controllable magnetic field, and by changing the direction and / or strength of the magnetic field, it applies magnetic force of different sizes and / or directions to the magnetic switch 301 of the water outlet 302.

[0078] The tea compartment 30 is detachably mounted on the magnetic control base. A water spout 302 is provided at the bottom of the tea compartment 30, and a magnetic switch 301 is provided in the water spout 302. The tea compartment 30 can be made of materials such as heat-resistant glass, food-grade stainless steel, and ceramic. The top of the tea compartment 30 has an opening for conveniently inserting tea leaves or warm water, and a cup lid 31 can be provided over the opening. The water spout 302 at the bottom of the tea compartment 30 is used to discharge the brewed tea in the tea compartment 30 into the kettle body 40. The magnetic switch 301 in the water spout 302 is used to control whether the water spout 302 is open or closed.

[0079] The kettle body 40 can be placed in or removed from the carrier 10. When the kettle body 40 is placed in the carrier 10, the kettle body 40 is located below the tea compartment 30, and the water spout 302 is vertically opposite to the mouth of the kettle body 40. In other words, when the kettle body 40 and the tea compartment 30 are on the carrier 10, the two are arranged vertically opposite each other, the tea compartment 30 is located above the kettle body 40, and the water spout 302 at the bottom of the tea compartment 30 is aligned with the mouth of the kettle body 40 at the top. When the water spout 302 is opened, the tea in the tea compartment 30 can flow into the kettle body 40 below through the water spout 302. The kettle body 40 can also be made of heat-resistant glass, food-grade stainless steel, ceramic, etc., with the upper part of the kettle body 40 open to form a mouth. In addition, the kettle body 40 is usually provided with a handle so that the user can use the kettle body 40 by holding the handle.

[0080] The magnetic control base is configured to be operable by a user to control the magnetic switch 301 to open or close the water spout 302. When the water spout 302 is opened, the liquid in the tea compartment 30 can flow from the water spout 302 into the kettle body 40. In other words, the magnetic switch 301 in the water spout 302 is magnetic and can form a magnetic coupling with the magnetic control base. The magnetic control base is used to change the magnitude and / or direction of the magnetic force between the two, thereby controlling the movement of the magnetic switch 301 to open or close the water spout 302. When the water spout 302 is opened, the tea in the tea compartment 30 can flow into the kettle body 40 below, achieving effective control of the discharge of water from the tea compartment 30.

[0081] When using the magnetic tea maker to make tea, first, put the tea leaves into the tea bin 30, add an appropriate amount of warm water, and cover the cup lid 31. During this process, keep the water spout 302 in a closed state. The required tea is formed after brewing for a certain period of time. Then, by operating the magnetic control seat, the magnitude and / or direction of the magnetic force between the magnetic control seat and the magnetic switch part 301 in the water spout 302 is changed, thereby causing the magnetic switch part to move. For example, the magnetic switch part flips to one side under the magnetic attraction of the magnetic control seat, and the water spout 302 is opened. Then, the tea in the tea bin 30 flows into the pot body 40 below through the water spout 302 under the action of gravity, thus completing the tea brewing process. Finally, the pot body 40 can be removed from the carrier 10.

[0082] According to the magnetic tea maker provided by the embodiment of the present invention, by separating the tea bin 30 from the pot body 40, the capacity of the tea bin 30 is no longer limited by the size of the pot body 40, the size of the tea bin 30 can be appropriately increased, the amount of tea brewed at a single time is larger, and the inefficient operation of repeatedly injecting water for brewing is avoided. At the same time, the separate structure of the pot body 40 and the tea bin 30 allows the tea to be poured out using the teapot alone when pouring tea, which completely solves the problem of the tea bin 30 possibly falling off and the line of sight being blocked. Pouring tea is more convenient and intuitive, and the user experience is better. In addition, the design of the magnetic switch part 301 is adopted on the water spout 302, which abandons the traditional complex lever mechanism. By operating the magnetic control seat, the opening and closing of the magnetic switch part 301 can be conveniently controlled to realize the opening and closing switching of the water spout 302. This contactless magnetic control method has a simple structure, is easy to operate, and also avoids the health risks of residual dirt.

[0083] Reference Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figures 4 and 5 As shown, in some embodiments of the present invention, the magnetic control seat includes a shell 201, a first magnet 202 and a drive device 203, and the shell 201 is provided with a control member 2011 for user operation. The shell 201 can be made of plastic, wood or other materials. Preferably, the overall shape of the shell 201 is similar to the shape of the tea warehouse 30. For example, the tea warehouse 30 is cylindrical, and correspondingly, the shell 201 is also circular. In order to make the structure simpler and more compact, the height dimension of the shell 201 can be configured to be relatively small. The control member 2011 can be provided on the top surface, side or other position of the shell 201 for easy operation by the user.

[0084] The first magnet 202 is disposed within the housing 201 and connected to the drive device 203. The first magnet 202 can be a permanent magnet. The drive device 203 can drive the first magnet 202 to move. It is understood that the movement of the first magnet 202 can be rotational or linear, as long as the magnitude or direction of the magnetic force between the first magnet 202 and the magnetic switch 301 is changed.

[0085] The driving device 203 is used to drive the first magnet member 202 to move according to the operation of the control member 2011, so as to drive the magnetic switch member 301 to open the water outlet 302 through the magnetic force between the first magnet member 202 and the magnetic switch member 301.

[0086] In the initial state, the magnetic switch 301 remains closed to the water spout 302. To open the water spout 302, the user operates (e.g., presses, touches, or pulls) the control 2011 on the housing 201. The drive device 203 receives the operating signal from the control 2011 and activates, thereby driving the first magnet 202 to move. As the first magnet 202 moves, the magnitude and / or direction of the magnetic force between the first magnet and the magnetic switch changes, causing the magnetic switch to activate and open the water spout 302. For example, when the first magnet rotates, the direction of its magnetic field changes, which in turn changes the direction of the magnetic attraction force on the magnetic switch 301, causing the magnetic switch 301 to move and open the water spout 302. When the first magnet moves linearly, the magnetic field of the first magnet shifts, changing the magnetic attraction or repulsion on the magnetic switch 301. This in turn drives the magnetic switch 301 to move, opening the water spout 302.

[0087] Thus, by manually manipulating the control element 2011, the drive device 203 can precisely control the movement of the first magnet element 202, thereby causing the magnetic switch element 301 to move. This, in turn, controls the opening and closing of the water spout 302, achieving contactless, intelligent control of the water dispensing process. The entire on-off process is simple to operate, responsive, and requires no direct contact with the magnetic switch element 301, making operation clean and hygienic.

[0088] Reference Figures 1 to 2 As shown, in one embodiment of the utility model, a drain hole is provided at the bottom of the water outlet 302, through which the liquid in the tea chamber 30 can flow out. The magnetic switch component includes a second magnet 3011 and a blocking ball 3012. The blocking ball 3012 is fixed to the bottom of the first magnet 202 and blocks the drain hole under gravity.

[0089] For example, the second magnet 3011 can be a flat permanent magnet. The blocking ball 3012 can be a heavy metal ball, ceramic ball, glass ball, or the like, preferably a stainless steel ball, which is strong and heavy, providing a better blocking effect. Due to gravity, in a balanced state, the blocking ball 3012 will be firmly seated in the drain hole, thereby sealing the water outlet 302 and preventing liquid from flowing out.

[0090] When the first magnet part 202 is moved by the driving device 203, the first magnet part 202 absorbs or repels the second magnet part 3011, causing the second magnet part 3011 to flip over, and the blocking ball 3012 moves with the second magnet part 3011 to open the drain hole.

[0091] That is to say, when it is necessary to open the water spout 302, the control member 2011 on the magnetic control seat is operated to cause the drive device 203 to drive the first magnet member 202 to start moving. Since the first magnet member 202 has a sufficiently strong magnetic field, it will act on the second magnet member 3011 through magnetic attraction or repulsion. According to the direction of movement of the first magnet member 202, the second magnet member 3011 will perform a corresponding flipping movement, flipping toward the side close to the first magnet member 202 when attracting, and flipping toward the side away from the first magnet member 202 when repelling. This flipping action will drive the blocking ball 3012 connected to the bottom of the second magnet member 3011 to move synchronously, thereby opening the drain hole and allowing the liquid to flow out smoothly.

[0092] Of course, after the tea in the tea bin 30 has finished flowing out, the control part 2011 can be operated to make the driving device 203 drive the first magnet part 202 to reset, which can correspondingly cause the second magnet part 3011 to reset, and the blocking ball 3012 can be restored to the blocking state, blocking the drain hole again, so that the water outlet 302 is closed.

[0093] Thus, in this embodiment, the combination of the second magnet 3011 and the blocking ball 3012 constitutes the magnetic switch 301. The second magnet 3011 can form a magnetic coupling with the first magnet 202, thereby utilizing the principles of magnetic field mechanics to cleverly integrate the opening and closing control function of the water spout 302 into a simple magnet flipping action. The entire process does not require any mechanical contact or transmission. Not only is the structure compact and simple, but the operation response is fast, the movement is smooth and noiseless, and it is safe and environmentally friendly to use. In addition, the blocking ball 3012 is used to block the drain hole. The blocking ball 3012 is located at the bottom of the second magnet 3011 and has a low center of gravity, ensuring reliable blocking.

[0094] Reference Figures 1 to 2 and Figures 4 to 7 As shown, in one embodiment of the present invention, the first magnet part 202 is a radial magnet, and the radial magnet is rotatably arranged in the housing 201 around its own axis. For example, the radial magnet is pivotally arranged in the housing 201 along a horizontal axis. When the radial magnet rotates along the horizontal axis, the direction of the magnetic field of the radial magnet can change. The second magnet part 3011 is an axial magnet, and the blocking ball 3012 is fixed on one of the two poles of the axial magnet, that is, the blocking ball 3012 is arranged at the bottom of the axial direction of the axial magnet. Then, when the blocking ball 3012 blocks the water outlet 302, the axial magnet is located at the top of the blocking ball 3012, and the magnetic field direction is vertical. Among them, the so-called radial magnet refers to a magnet whose magnetization direction is perpendicular to its own axial direction. The axial magnet refers to a magnet whose magnetization direction is parallel to its own axial direction.

[0095] The driving device 203 can drive the radial magnet to rotate between a first position and a second position; when the radial magnet is located at the first position, the blocking ball 3012 closes the water outlet 302 under the action of gravity, and when the radial magnet rotates to the second position, the magnetic field direction of the radial magnet changes, causing the second magnet part 3011 to flip in conjunction, so that the blocking ball 3012 opens the drain hole.

[0096] In other words, the function of the drive device 203 is to drive the radial magnet to rotate between two specific positions (i.e., the first position and the second position). When the radial magnet is in the first position, due to the balance between various forces, such as the magnetic force between the first magnet member 202 and the second magnet member 3011 and the gravity of the second magnet member 3011, the axial magnet remains in its original position. The blocking ball 3012 continues to block the drain hole under the action of gravity, and the water outlet 302 remains closed. However, once the drive device 203 drives the radial magnet to rotate to the second position, the direction of the radial magnet's magnetic field changes significantly. This change in magnetic field direction disrupts the equilibrium state and, through magnetic coupling, triggers a corresponding flipping movement of the axial magnet. Since the blocking ball 3012 is fixed to one pole of the axial magnet, the flipping of the axial magnet directly drives the blocking ball 3012 to move synchronously. Ultimately, the blocking ball 3012 flips to one side, thereby opening the drain hole of the water outlet 302. This allows the liquid in the tea compartment 30 to flow smoothly from the drain hole, achieving controlled opening of the water outlet 302. The entire switching process is driven by the magnetic field.

[0097] This embodiment cleverly integrates the opening and closing control of the water spout 302 into the relative motion between the two magnets through the combination of radial and axial magnets and the positioning of the blocking ball 3012 on the axial magnet. The drive device 203 simply rotates the radial magnet to achieve precise and reliable opening and closing. The overall structure is compact, easy to operate, and provides fast and stable response.

[0098] Reference Figures 4 and 5 As shown, in one embodiment of the present invention, a limiting member 204 is provided in the housing 201 to limit the radial magnet from rotating within an angle range of 90°, so that the magnetic field direction of the radial magnet can be switched between the horizontal direction and the vertical direction.

[0099] In this embodiment, the radial magnet's rotation angle is limited to 90° by a stopper 204, thereby controlling the switching of the radial magnet's magnetic field direction between horizontal and vertical directions when the radial magnet rotates between the first and second positions. In a specific application, one direction can be used as the initial state. For example, the radial magnet's magnetic field direction is vertical as the initial state. Correspondingly, the axial magnet's magnetic field direction can also be vertical, but the two magnetic poles are arranged oppositely to those of the radial magnet. For example, if the radial magnet has an upper N pole and a lower S pole, the axial magnet has an upper S pole and a lower N pole. In this way, the upper and lower N and S poles of the radial and axial magnets attract each other, reaching an equilibrium state. The blocking ball 3012 remains blocked, and the water outlet 302 remains closed. Once the radial magnet rotates 90°, causing its magnetic field direction to become horizontal, it induces the axial magnet to flip, and its magnetic field direction also becomes horizontal. The magnetic poles at the adjacent ends of the radial and axial magnets are opposite and attract each other, thereby driving the blocking ball 3012 to open the water outlet, and the water outlet 302 is opened.

[0100] This 90° limit design ensures a clear steady state for the entire switch control, avoiding intermediate state confusion caused by excessive rotation of the radial magnet. Furthermore, the 90° angle switching facilitates the effective conversion of magnetic coupling, ensuring a thorough transition of the switch state, thereby improving the reliability and stability of the switch control.

[0101] Preferably, the first magnet 202 and the water outlet 302 are at the same height position, so that the first magnet 202 and the second magnet 3011 can be ensured to maintain a relative state in the horizontal direction, thereby forming a stronger magnetic coupling effect, ensuring higher effectiveness and reliability of magnetic control.

[0102] Reference Figures 4 and 5 As shown, in one embodiment of the present invention, the driving device 203 includes a driving motor 2031, a control circuit board 2032 and a battery 2033. The output shaft of the driving motor 2031 is connected to the first magnet member 202. The driving motor 2031 can drive the first magnet member 202 to rotate reliably.

[0103] The control circuit board 2032 is electrically connected to the drive motor 2031 and the control unit 2011. The battery 2033 is connected to the control circuit board 2032 to supply power to the control circuit board 2032. The control circuit board 2032 can issue operating instructions to the drive motor 2031 based on signals triggered by the control unit 2011, thereby controlling the drive motor 2031.

[0104] In this embodiment, the driving motor 2031 is used to effectively control the rotation process of the radial magnet. The structure is simple, the control is precise and stable, and the automatic switching control of the magnetic switch element 301 is guaranteed.

[0105] exist Figure 5 In this example, the limiting member 204 is a coupling, through which the output shaft of the drive motor 2031 is connected to the radial magnet. Two limiting portions 2041 are spaced apart on the outer circumference of the coupling. Two stops of a certain height are provided within the housing 201, with the limiting portions 2041 positioned between the two stops. When the coupling rotates to one side, one limiting portion 2041 forms a limiting engagement with one stop. When the coupling rotates to the other side, the other limiting portion 2041 forms a limiting engagement with the other stop. This limits the rotation angle of the radial magnet.

[0106] It is understandable that the limiting member 204 can be implemented using any structure as long as it can limit the rotation angle of the radial magnet.

[0107] Preferably, the battery 2033 is a rechargeable battery 2033, and the housing 201 is detachably connected to the carrier 10, allowing the magnetic control base to be separated from the carrier 10. During use, the magnetic control base 20 can be powered directly by the battery 2033, eliminating the need for a power source. This makes it more convenient and independent of power supply requirements. If the battery 2033 runs low, the entire magnetic control base 20 can be removed from the carrier 10 for recharging, making it even more convenient and flexible.

[0108] Reference Figures 1 to 5 As shown, in some embodiments of the present invention, the control element 2011 is a touch control element 2011, which allows the user to control the operation of the driving device 203 by touch. The touch control element 2011 can be a touch panel, which can be directly mounted on the top surface, side surface, etc. of the housing 201. For example, a protruding panel is provided on the side of the housing 201, and the touch control element 2011 is mounted on this panel, thereby facilitating touch operation by the user.

[0109] When the user touches the touch control element 2011, the touch sensing circuit converts these actions into corresponding electrical signals and sends them to the control circuit board 2032. The control circuit board 2032 issues corresponding control commands based on the electrical signals, instructing the drive motor 2031 to start or stop.

[0110] Compared with button control, touch control only requires a light touch to complete the input of control commands. The interaction method is more natural and intuitive, and it also brings a new experience to control interaction.

[0111] It is understandable that the control element 2011 can adopt any control method, such as a button, a toggle switch, an induction switch, etc., as long as it can trigger a signal.

[0112] In one embodiment of the present invention, after the touch control element 2011 is triggered to open the water outlet 302, if the touch control element 2011 is not triggered again within a predetermined time, the control circuit board 2032 actively controls the driving device 203 to operate and close the water outlet 302.

[0113] When the user clicks the touch control element 2011 once, it controls the magnetic switch element 301 to open. When clicked again, it controls the magnetic switch element 301 to close. In actual use, users may sometimes walk away or forget to close the water spout 302 after opening it. If the water spout 302 is not closed, the next time the user adds tea leaves and warm water to the tea compartment 30, the warm water will simply be discharged. Therefore, in this embodiment, if the touch control element 2011 is not triggered again (i.e., no new control command is received) within a predetermined time after the water spout 302 is opened, the control circuit board 2032 will actively control the drive device 203 to automatically close the water spout 302. The predetermined time can be any reasonable value, such as 15 seconds or 30 seconds. During this time, the control circuit board 2032 will remain in a waiting state. Once the timer expires and no new touch signals are received, the system will determine that the user has completed the water dispensing operation and proactively intervene to issue a command to close the water spout 302.

[0114] In this way, the inconvenience and waste of warm water caused by the water outlet nozzle 302 not being closed in time due to negligent operation can be effectively prevented, thereby greatly improving the user experience of the product.

[0115] Reference Figures 3 and 4 As shown, in one embodiment of the present invention, the top of the shell 201 has a positioning groove H201 for positioning the bottom of the tea bin 30, and the bottom of the positioning groove H201 is provided with a through hole H2011 for accommodating the water outlet nozzle 302.

[0116] In this embodiment, the design of the positioning groove H201 ensures precise alignment of the tea compartment 30 and the magnetic control base 20 during assembly, maintaining a reliable and stable assembly. Furthermore, the water spout 302, through the provision of the through hole H2011, ensures that it is aligned vertically with the mouth of the kettle body 40.

[0117] Reference Figures 1 to 3As shown, in one embodiment of the present invention, the carrier 10 includes a base 101, a top seat 102, and a connecting arm 103. The base 101 has a placement position for the kettle body 40. The top seat 102 is located above the base 101, and the magnetic control seat is located on the top seat 102. The connecting arm 103 is connected between the base 101 and the top seat 102, and the three define a placement space suitable for accommodating the kettle body 40.

[0118] In this embodiment, the base 101 and the top 102 are connected by a connecting arm 103 to form a U-shaped structure, with the opening located on one side in the horizontal direction. This structural arrangement creates a space between the base 101 and the top 102 to accommodate the kettle body 40. When in use, the kettle body 40 can be easily pushed in or out horizontally, making it very convenient to use. This design is not only simple and beautiful in structure, but also has strong practicality and high ease of use.

[0119] Reference Figure 3 As shown, in one embodiment of the present invention, the top base 102 is provided with at least two latching holes H102, which are spaced circumferentially around a vertical axis. The bottom of the housing 201 is provided with at least two buckles, which correspond one-to-one with the at least two latching holes H102. When the buckles are inserted into the corresponding latching holes H102, the housing 201 is rotated a predetermined angle around the vertical axis, and the buckles engage with the latching holes H102.

[0120] In order to be able to firmly and detachably mount the magnetic control seat 20 on the top seat 102 of the carrier 10 while making the connection between the two simple and quick, in this embodiment, a card hole H102 is provided on the top seat 102, and a buckle is provided on the bottom of the shell 201, and the two can be easily and reliably connected by plugging into each other and rotating into place.

[0121] Specifically, the latch hole H102 can adopt a structure with variable width, for example, including a wide end and a narrow end, and the latch has a barb. When the magnetic control seat 20 needs to be installed on the top seat 102 of the carrier 10, it is only necessary to align the bottom of the shell 201 with the top of the top seat 102, so that each latch is facing the wide end of the corresponding latch hole H102. Then, gently press the shell 201 to fully insert each latch into the corresponding latch hole H102. Next, rotate the magnetic control seat 20 around the vertical axis at the center of the top seat 102 by a certain angle, and the latch can be rotated to the narrow end of the latch hole H102. The barb is located below the top seat 102, which can act as a stop to prevent disengagement, thereby achieving a reliable latching state. When disassembly is required, first rotate it in the opposite direction so that the latch rotates to the wide end, and then pull it upward to separate the magnetic control seat 20 from the top seat 102 of the carrier 10.

[0122] This snap-fit ​​design is quick and easy to use. With a simple push and turn, the magnetic control base 20 and top base 102 are precisely aligned and securely locked. This snap-fit ​​structure also ensures reliable reassembly and disassembly. Simply rotating the magnetic control base 20 in the opposite direction by a predetermined angle allows for easy separation from the top base 102, significantly enhancing ease of use.

[0123] Reference Figures 6 and 7 As shown, in one embodiment of the present invention, the magnetic switch component further includes a rust-proof shell 3013, the second magnet component 3011 is encapsulated in the rust-proof shell 3013, and the top of the blocking ball 3012 has a cutting plane, which is fixed to the bottom surface of the rust-proof shell 3013.

[0124] The rust-proof shell 3013 can be a hollow metal shell 201, such as stainless steel. In order to facilitate assembly, the rust-proof shell 3013 is usually composed of two half shells 3013a. The second magnet part 3011 is placed between the two half shells 3013a, and the two half shells 3013a are welded and sealed by laser welding or other methods, so that the second magnet part 3011 can be sealed in the rust-proof shell 3013.

[0125] The rust-proof shell 3013 can isolate the second magnet 3011 from direct contact with the external water environment, preventing it from corrosion and oxidation, and ensuring its longer service life and higher safety.

[0126] Furthermore, to ensure that the blocking ball 3012 is securely fixed to the bottom of the rust-proof housing 3013, in this embodiment, the top of the blocking ball 3012 is designed to form a tangent plane. This tangent plane and the bottom surface of the rust-proof housing 3013 can be secured together by welding or other means. This design ensures that the blocking ball 3012 is securely fixed to the bottom of the rust-proof housing 3013 and can reliably move with the second magnet 3011 to open or close the drain hole, ensuring that the magnetic switch maintains high accuracy and reliability over the long term.
