[0002] Electronic scales are common weighing instruments in everyday life, primarily used to measure the mass of items. Compared to traditional scales, electronic scales offer higher precision. High-precision electronic scales provide more accurate measurement results, helping to ensure measurement accuracy.

[0003] Existing electronic scales typically use a design with a separate weighing area and operation display area. This means that one portion of the scale's surface is used solely for weighing, while another portion is used solely for user operation and display. The weighing area is often much larger than the operation display area. This limits the functionality of electronic scales. In scenarios where a large amount of information needs to be displayed, the operation display area cannot display all information in one place. Furthermore, when weighing a large number of objects or a large area, the electronic scale must be made larger to accommodate the larger weighing area, making it difficult for users to carry around and use it anywhere.

[0004] In addition, the existing electronic scales are rigid in design and lack fashion and aesthetics. They cannot meet the fashion needs of users in some application scenarios. For example, when users use coffee makers to brew coffee themselves, they usually hope that the entire set of coffee makers will have the same style and fashion. The existing electronic scale design obviously cannot meet such needs. Utility Model Content

[0029] In order to better understand the technical solution of the present application, the embodiments of the present application are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0030] It should be clear that the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of this application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in this application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative work are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0031] like Figure 1-Figure 3 As shown, this embodiment discloses an electronic scale, including a scale body 1000 and a touch full screen 2000, the scale body 1000 has a loading platform 1110 and an internal space 1300, the touch full screen 2000 is covered on the loading platform 1110, and a load unit 1400 is provided in the internal space 1300, the load unit 1400 is connected to the touch full screen 2000, and the load unit 1400 is used to detect weight changes on the touch full screen 2000, and the touch full screen 2000 displays the weight in real time according to the weight changes.

[0032] Specifically, the scale body 1000 can adopt a common electronic scale body. The touch full screen 2000 adopts a display device that can realize multi-touch and full-screen display functions, so that the user can set the environmental parameters for weighing objects using the electronic scale by operating the graphical user interface (GUI) on the touch full screen 2000, thereby realizing a customized weighing experience. In a preferred implementation of this embodiment, the user can also customize the graphical user interface on the touch full screen 2000 according to the actual usage scenario. For example, in the usage scenario of coffee brewing, the touch full screen 2000 displays the maximum weighing (2 kilograms) and the corresponding brewing time. In this way, when the user weighs the ground coffee powder, the optimal brewing time can be recommended to the user to obtain the ultimate coffee brewing experience. The loading platform 1110 in the scale body 1000 is the surface on which objects are placed when weighing an electronic scale. The loading platform 1110 can be either horizontal or curved, but must be horizontal. The full touchscreen 2000 completely covers the surface of the loading platform 1110 and can even be larger than the surface. The scale body 1000 is a closed, integrated structure. Except for the operating switch 1500 and power interface 1600, all components are integrated into the internal space 1300. The load unit 1400 in the internal space 1300 integrates multiple components such as a weight sensor, a signal transceiver and a signal processor. Its function is that when the weighing parameters of the touch full screen 2000 are set and the object weighing work starts, the load unit 1400 collects the weight change of the touch full screen 2000 through the weight sensor, processes the weight change through the signal processor, and sends it to the touch full screen 2000 through the signal transceiver. Finally, the weight of the weighing object (such as coffee powder, flour, cheese blocks, etc.) is displayed on the touch full screen 2000.

[0033] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, in the electronic scale of this embodiment, the scale body 1000 includes a housing 1100 and a base plate 1200. The housing 1100 and the base plate 1200 are connected to each other and enclosed to form an internal space 1300. The loading platform 1110 is disposed on the housing 1100 and is arranged opposite to the base plate 1200. Specifically, the loading platform 1110 and the base plate 1200 are arranged substantially parallel to each other and spaced apart, with a side panel 1120 disposed between the loading platform 1110 and the base plate 1200. The side panel 1120 can be integrally formed with the loading platform 1110 or with the base plate 1200. In this embodiment, the side panel 1120 and the loading platform 1110 are integrally formed to form the housing 1100 as an example for description. The upper and lower ends of the side panel 1120 surround the stage 1110 and the base plate 1200. When the stage 1110 is circular, the side panel 1120 is a ring wall structure. When the stage 1110 is square, the side panel 1120 is spaced apart by two opposite end walls 1121 and a side wall 1122.

[0034] At the same time, the touch screen 2000 includes a screen body 2100 and a control module 2200. The control module 2200 is mounted on the stage 1110, and the screen body 2100 is mounted on the control module 2200. The area of ​​the screen body 2100 is not less than the area of ​​the control module 2200. In other words, from a cross-sectional view, the touch screen 2000 presents a "T" shape, as shown in FIG. Figure 3 As shown. Specifically, the screen 2100 can adopt a full-screen OLED (Organic Light-Emitting Diode) display screen to display graphics or text according to the control of the control module 2200. The control module 2200 integrates multiple sensors and electronic components. In a preferred implementation of this embodiment, the control module 2200 is configured with a position sensor for real-time detection of the position of an object placed on the touch full screen 2000, and accurate measurement is achieved based on the dynamic response of the position. In a preferred implementation of this embodiment, the control module 2200 is configured with a photosensitive sensor for real-time analysis of the light emitted by the object placed on the touch full screen 2000, detecting properties such as color, and realizing functions such as product quality analysis and product component analysis while weighing. In a preferred implementation of this embodiment, the control module 2200 is configured with the above position sensor and photosensitive sensor at the same time. The screen 2100 displays the non-weight information of the object based on the parameters detected by the position sensor and / or photosensitive sensor. The non-weight information includes but is not limited to temperature, humidity, composition, mass, shape, size, etc. Of course, in addition to the display component and the above position sensor and light sensor, the control module 2200 can also be configured with other sensors or electronic components, such as temperature sensors, pressure sensors, micro cameras, etc.

[0035] like Figure 4As shown, in this embodiment of the electronic scale, the loading platform 1110 is square in shape, and the side panels 1120 connecting the loading platform 1110 are composed of two end walls 1121 and two side walls 1122, which are spaced apart and surround the loading platform 1110. The loading platform 1110 includes a loading plate 1111 and a support platform 1112. The support platform 1112 is disposed around the loading plate 1111 and connected at its upper end to the two end walls 1121 and the two side walls 1122, respectively. The loading plate 1111 is recessed relative to the support platform 1112 toward the interior space 1300, i.e., the height of the loading plate 1111 is lower than the support platform 1112 in the vertical direction. The control module 2200 extends into the recess and is fixedly mounted on the loading plate 1111 and is surrounded by the support platform 1112. The edge of the screen 2100 protrudes beyond the edge of the control module 2200 and is mounted on the support platform 1112. The entire loading platform 1110 is recessed downward from the two end walls 1121 and the upper ends of the two ring walls at the edge of the scale body 1000 toward the direction of the internal space 1300, that is, in the vertical direction, the height of the upper ends of the end walls 1121 and the ring walls is the highest, the height of the support platform 1112 is second, and the height of the loading plate 1111 is relatively the lowest, thereby forming a retaining wall 1123 at the edge of the scale body 1000, and the retaining wall 1123 can be located at the upper ends of the two end walls 1121, or at the two side walls 1 At the upper end of the support platform 1112, since the length of the side walls 1122 in this embodiment is much greater than that of the end walls 1121, retaining walls 1123 are provided at the upper ends of the two side walls 1122 to better secure the screen 2100. The retaining walls 1123 clamp the screen 2100 in place. The surface of the retaining walls 1123 in contact with the screen 2100 is flat or has a shape that conforms to the side surface of the screen 2100. The cross-section of the retaining walls 1123 is fan-shaped, making the appearance of the scale 1000 more beautiful and stylish. A sealing groove 1113 is provided on the support platform 1112. The sealing groove 1113 is annular and has a sealing element embedded in it. The screen 2100 is sealed to the sealing element, which not only increases the connection strength between the touch screen 2000 and the housing 1100, but also prevents foreign matter (especially powder) from entering the internal space 1300 of the scale 1000. A control circuit board 1700 is provided in the internal space 1300 of the scale body 1000, a first connecting hole 1114 is opened on the loading plate 1111, and a flexible circuit board 2300 is provided on the control module 2200. The control module 2200 is connected to the control circuit board 1700 through the first connecting hole 1114 via the flexible circuit board 2300, thereby realizing electrical connection between the touch full screen 2000 located outside the shell 1100 and the electronic components located in the internal space 1300.A first connection hole 1114 is defined on one side edge of the loading platform 1110, and a corresponding avoidance slot 1115 is defined on the support platform 1112. The flexible printed circuit board 2300 extends from the side of the control module 2200, passes through the avoidance slot 1115, and then passes through the first connection hole 1114. This ensures that the wiring in the internal space 1300 does not affect the load unit 1400's detection of weight changes of objects on the full touch screen 2000. The load unit 1400 is fixedly mounted on the inner surface of the loading platform 1110 facing the internal space 1300, bringing the load unit 1400 closer to the full touch screen 2000, enabling more accurate detection of weight changes of objects on the full touch screen 2000. Furthermore, a battery module 1800 is provided within the interior space 1300 and is fixedly mounted on the loading plate 1111. This battery module 1800, which can utilize a lithium battery, powers all electronic components within the interior space 1300 and the control module 2200 of the full touch screen 2000. A switch element and a power port 1600 are also provided on the sidewall 1122 of the housing 1100. These switch element and power port 1600 are connected to the control circuit board 1700. The switch element can be used to turn the electronic scale on and off, and the power port 1600 can be used to charge the battery module 1800.

[0036] like Figure 5 As shown, in the electronic scale of this embodiment, the base plate 1200 is square and covers the bottom of the housing 1100 and seals it. A through hole 1201 is provided on the base plate 1200 at a position corresponding to the load unit 1400. Through the through hole 1201, the load unit 1400 can be extended into the internal space 1300 and fixed together with the loading plate 1111. The load unit 1400 can also be fixed to the base plate 1200, and the loading plate 1111 and the base plate 1200 can achieve the upper and lower positioning of the load unit 1400, thereby preventing the slight displacement of the load unit 1400 during the operation of the electronic scale from affecting the accuracy of weighing. A cover plate 1202 is provided on the through hole 1201 of the base plate 1200, and the through hole 1201 is covered by the cover plate 1202, which not only ensures the integrity of the scale body 1000, but also facilitates disassembly at any time to maintain and service the electronic components in the internal space 1300. The outer surface of the base plate 1200 defines at least one waist-shaped hole 1203, with an anti-slip pad 1204 positioned within the waist-shaped hole 1203. The number of waist-shaped holes 1203 is generally an even number, such as two or four. In a preferred embodiment of this embodiment, there are two waist-shaped holes 1203, one located near each end wall 1121 and extending along the end wall 1121. The anti-slip pad 1204 is made of silicone and may be frosted to enhance friction and ensure the stability of the electronic scale during operation.

[0037] This embodiment also discloses a coffee maker, comprising the electronic scale described in the above embodiment.

[0038] The electronic scale and coffee maker disclosed in the present utility model integrate a full-screen OLED display in the electronic scale, completely covering the loading platform 1110 with the touch full screen 2000. The touch full screen 2000 is used for weighing, so that the weighing area and the display area are combined into one, so that the electronic scale can be used as both a weighing platform and a user interface (UI) for user interaction. It has the advantages of accurate weighing and a fully interactive and customizable user interface, and well combines high-precision weighing functions with high-degree-of-freedom user customization, providing a unique and powerful weighing tool for different industries such as coffee, kitchen, home, and hotel, greatly increasing the universality and accuracy of the electronic scale, and having a stylish and beautiful appearance.
