[0027] The technical solution of the present utility model is described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0028] Example 1

Specifically, the base 4 described in this embodiment adopts a cylindrical structure that is through-through from top to bottom, the guide column adopts a cylindrical structure that is sealed at the top, hollow inside and open at the bottom, the pulling rope 6 adopts a steel wire rope, the driving mechanism 7 adopts a stepping motor, the base 4 is vertically arranged in the container 1, the lower end of the base 4 is fixed on the base 2, the rope winding rack 8 is arranged in the upper port of the base 4, and the lower end of the rope winding rack 8 is connected and fixed to the base 2. The guide column 5 is movably arranged between the base 4 and the rope winding rack 8 (that is, the rope winding rack 8 is located inside the guide column 5, and the lower end of the guide column 5 is inserted into the upper port of the base 4). The driving mechanism 7 is arranged on the base 2. The pulling rope 6 passes around the rope winding rack 8 and is transmission-connected to the driving mechanism 7. The output end of the driving mechanism 7 rotates left and right to drive the pulling rope 6 to move back and forth up and down. The guide column 5 and the pulling rope 6 are fixedly connected by a limiter 9. The soaking basket 3 is assembled on the guide column 5. Tea, dried flowers, Chinese medicine and other ingredients can be placed in the soaking basket 3. Through the above-mentioned structural arrangement, when the soaking basket 3 needs to rise, the driving mechanism 7 can be controlled to rotate forward, and the driving mechanism 7 drives the pulling rope 6 to move forward around the rope winding frame 8, and the pulling rope 6 drives the guide column 5 to move upward along the base 4, and the soaking basket 3 moves upward together; when the soaking basket 3 needs to descend, the driving mechanism 7 can be controlled to reverse, and the driving mechanism 7 drives the pulling rope 6 to move in the opposite direction around the rope winding frame 8, and the pulling rope 6 drives the guide column 5 to move downward along the base 4, and the soaking basket 3 moves downward together.
