[0023] The present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0024] A portable, foldable coffee machine, such as Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the device includes a base 1, a guide plate 2, a coffee machine 3, a rotating device 4, a folding plate 5, and a mesh frame 6. The base 1 has guide plates 2 on both the left and right sides. The coffee machine 3 is rotatably mounted between the two guide plates 2. A damping device is provided between the coffee machine 3 and the guide plates 2 to ensure smooth rotation and positioning. The guide plates 2 and the coffee machine 3 are equipped with a rotating device 4. The rotating device 4 includes a handwheel 41, a first gear 42, and a second gear 43. The guide plate 2 has a rotatable handwheel 41 on its side. The handwheel 41 has a first gear 42. The side of the coffee machine 3 is connected to the second gear 43. The first gear 42 and the second gear 43 mesh. The base 1 has folding plates 5 on both the front and rear sides. Both folding plates 5 are connected to the coffee machine 3. The base 1 has a mesh frame 6 on its upper side. The mesh frame 6 is located below the water outlet of the coffee machine 3.

[0025] When it is necessary to reduce the size of this device, turn the handwheel 41. The handwheel 41 drives the first gear 42 to rotate. Since the first gear 42 and the second gear 43 mesh, the first gear 42 will drive the second gear 43 to rotate. The second gear 43 drives the coffee machine 3 connected to it to rotate. At this time, the front folding plate 5 retracts and the rear folding plate 5 extends. The folding plate 5 provides a certain support, so that the coffee machine 3 will not easily rotate or shake. After the coffee machine 3 rotates to the horizontal position, stop turning the handwheel 41. When the device needs to be used, turn the handwheel 41 in the opposite direction. Stop after the coffee machine 3 rotates to the appropriate angle. At this time, the water outlet of the coffee machine 3 is located directly above the mesh frame 6, which is convenient for brewing and pouring coffee.

[0026] The first gear 42 has fewer teeth than the second gear 43; the difference in the number of teeth between the first gear 42 and the second gear 43 prevents the coffee machine 3 from rotating too fast, allowing the user to adjust the angle of the coffee machine 3 more precisely.

[0027] like Figures 4 to 9 As shown, it also includes a fixed plate 7, a gripping rod 71, a cover plate 8, a rotating rod 81, a guide rod 10, and a first elastic element 11. The base 1 has sliding grooves on both its left and right sides, extending through the front of the base 1. A rotating rod 81 is slidably mounted within the sliding groove of the base 1. The two rotating rods 81 are rotatably connected to the two cover plates 8 respectively. The two cover plates 8 can rotate 180 degrees around the rotating rod 81 as an axis. At this time, the cover plates 8 are closed, enclosing the guide plate 2 and coffee machine 3, among other components. A fixed plate 7 is provided on the side wall of the cover plate 8, with a through hole on the fixed plate 7. The guide rod 10 is slidably connected to the through hole on the fixed plate 7 and is connected to the gripping rod 71. One end of the first elastic element 11 is connected to the guide rod 10, and the other end is connected to the fixed plate 7. The first elastic element 11 surrounds the guide rod 10. 0. External side; When moving or not using this device, the two cover plates 8 can be rotated to the closed state, and then the device can be lifted by holding the gripping rod 71 and placed in a suitable position. When lifting the device, the gripping rod 71 moves upward, and the cover plate 8 will separate from the gripping rod 71 due to the coffee machine 3 and its own weight. At this time, the first elastic element 11 will be stretched, making it easier for the user to grip. After the user puts the device down, the first elastic element 11 retracts, driving the gripping rod 71 back to its original position. When using this device, due to the connection method between the cover plate 8 and the coffee machine 3, the user can rotate the two cover plates 8 to the underside of the coffee machine 3 as a support structure to support the coffee machine 3, or the two cover plates 8 can be slid off from the base 1 by rotating the rod 81 to meet the needs of different scenarios.

[0028] like Figure 5 and Figure 8 As shown, it also includes a pad 9. The gripping rod 71 is provided with a pad 9. The pad 9 has a soft layer structure and a high coefficient of friction. When the cover plate 8 is used to support the coffee machine 3, the pad 9 can act as a buffer layer to prevent the cover plate 8 from making direct hard contact with the placement surface, thereby avoiding scratches, wear, or even damage to the surface of the cover plate 8. It can also protect the placement surface and prevent the coffee machine 3 from leaving indelible indentations or scratches on the placement surface after a long period of time. At the same time, the pad 9 can increase the friction between the cover plate 8 and the placement surface, preventing the cover plate 8 from tipping over due to sliding when supporting the coffee machine 3, thus improving stability.

[0029] like Figures 6 to 8As shown, it also includes a first rubber block 12 and a second rubber block 13. The left cover plate 8 is provided with the first rubber block 12, and the right cover plate 8 is provided with the second rubber block 13. The left and right cover plates 8 are respectively provided with grooves that match the second rubber block 13 and the first rubber block 12. When the two cover plates 8 are closed, the first rubber block 12 and the second rubber block 13 are respectively embedded in the grooves of the right cover plate 8 and the left cover plate 8. When the two cover plates 8 are in the closed state, the first rubber block 12 and the second rubber block 13 can increase the friction between the two cover plates 8, and prevent the cover plates 8 from accidentally separating due to accidental vibration or other factors.

[0030] like Figure 4 and Figure 9 As shown, it also includes a limiting block 14 and a second elastic element 15. The limiting blocks 14 are slidably connected to both the left and right sides of the base 1. One end of the second elastic element 15 is connected to the limiting block 14, and the other end is connected to the base 1. The front side of the limiting block 14 away from the second elastic element 15 is arc-shaped. The limiting block 14 and the second elastic element 15 are located at the starting point of the groove in the base 1. When installing the cover plate 8, due to the arc-shaped design of the limiting block 14, the user can directly push the rotating rod 81 into the groove in the base 1. At this time, the limiting block 14 will be pressed against the second elastic element 15 by the rotating rod 81. 5. When one end moves, the second elastic element 15 retracts. When the rotating rod 81 is fully inserted into the slide groove, the rotating rod 81 no longer presses against the limiting block 14. At this time, the second elastic element 15 recovers from the retracted state, driving the limiting block 14 back to its original position. At this time, the limiting block 14 will block the slide groove, restricting the rotating rod 81 within the slide groove. When it is necessary to disassemble the cover plate 8, the limiting block 14 is pushed towards the second elastic element 15 by hand. The second elastic element 15 retracts, and the limiting block 14 no longer blocks the slide groove. At this time, the rotating rod 81 can be pulled out of the slide groove, completing the disassembly process of the cover plate 8.

[0031] The above description is merely a specific embodiment of this utility model, but the protection scope of this utility model is not limited thereto. Any variations or substitutions that can be easily conceived by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of this utility model should be determined by the protection scope of the claims.
