TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The application relates to the technical field of health tea machines, and particularly relates to a water-vapor separation tea-water separation mechanism. BACKGROUND
[0002] With the acceleration of the modern life rhythm, people pay more and more attention to health and health preservation, and capsule health tea machines gradually enter thousands of families due to their convenience and multifunctionality.
[0003] However, in the brewing process of the traditional capsule health tea machine, a large amount of water vapor is generated due to the high temperature, and the water vapor is usually directly discharged through a tea outlet, which causes splashing and bursting phenomena at the tea outlet, thereby causing a safety hazard and reducing the user experience, and the tea water and hot water of the traditional capsule health tea machine usually enter through the same channel, so that the tea water and the hot water cannot be effectively separated, and the two are prone to taste mixing during the brewing process.
[0004] Therefore, the application provides a water-vapor separation tea-water separation mechanism to solve the above problems. CONTENT OF THE UTILITY MODEL
[0005] The application provides a water-vapor separation tea-water separation mechanism, which aims to solve the problems of the existing capsule health tea machine, such as the safety hazard of water vapor splashing and bursting, poor user experience, and taste mixing caused by the ineffective separation of tea water and hot water.
[0006] To achieve the above purpose, the application provides the following technical scheme: a water-vapor separation tea-water separation mechanism, which comprises a shell and a discharge outlet provided on the shell for discharging tea water or hot water, and further comprises a tea inlet hole and a water inlet hole provided on one side of the shell for entering tea water and hot water respectively, and a tea water channel and a pure water channel provided in the shell and communicating with the tea inlet hole and the water inlet hole respectively, and one end of the tea water channel away from the tea inlet hole and one end of the pure water channel away from the water inlet hole both communicate with the discharge outlet.
[0007] A steam discharge hole for discharging water vapor is arranged in the shell at a position corresponding to the discharge outlet.
[0008] The tea water channel and the pure water channel are provided with a buffer structure for buffering and separating water vapor from tea soup and water vapor from hot water; by respectively arranging a tea inlet hole and a water inlet hole, and corresponding tea water channels and pure water channels, tea water and hot water can be processed separately, reducing the problem of cross smell generated during brewing, so that users can enjoy more pure and original tea aroma, improving the quality of tea water, and through the buffer structure, the speed of tea water and hot water flowing through the buffer structure is slowed down, so that more water vapor can be separated and discharged through the steam outlet, while the tea soup and hot water continue to flow to the discharge outlet, which can prevent water vapor from splashing or bursting at the discharge outlet, thereby reducing the safety hazard during use and improving the user experience.
[0009] Preferably, in order to achieve the buffering and separation of tea water and water vapor, the buffer structure comprises a first separation partition fixedly arranged in the tea water channel near one end of the tea inlet hole, a second separation partition arranged in the tea water channel and located on the side of the first separation partition away from the tea inlet hole, and a third separation partition fixedly arranged in the tea water channel near the position of the discharge outlet; by gradually arranging the first separation partition, the second separation partition and the third separation partition, the tea water can be blocked and buffered multiple times in the tea water channel, thereby reducing the flow speed and separating the water vapor in the tea water better.
[0010] Preferably, in order to achieve the preliminary separation of tea water and water vapor, the first separation partition is in a reverse V-shaped structure; the reverse V-shaped first separation partition can provide more space for the water vapor to rise, which helps to effectively separate the water vapor from the tea water in the preliminary stage.

[0012] Preferably, in order to achieve the buffering and separation of hot water and water vapor, the buffer structure further comprises a fourth separation partition fixedly arranged in the pure water channel near the position of the discharge outlet; by arranging the fourth separation partition, the hot water flowing from the pure water channel to the discharge outlet can be blocked and buffered by the fourth separation partition, so that the speed is slowed down, and more water vapor in the hot water can be separated and discharged through the steam outlet.
[0013] Preferably, in order to facilitate the discharge of tea water vapor and hot water vapor, the steam vent is provided with two, two steam vents are respectively arranged on the third and fourth separation partitions; The steam vents are respectively arranged on the third and fourth separation partitions. Such layout helps to quickly and effectively guide the water vapor accumulated in the tea water channel and the pure water channel to the vicinity of the corresponding steam vent during the rising process, and smoothly discharge it to reduce the phenomenon of water vapor splashing and bursting at the discharge port.
[0014] The water vapor separation tea water separation mechanism can realize separate processing of tea water and hot water by arranging tea inlet holes and water inlet holes and corresponding tea water channels and pure water channels, reduce the cross smell problem generated during brewing, and enable users to enjoy more pure and original tea aroma, thereby improving the quality of tea water;

[0028] The technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.
[0029] This embodiment provides a water vapor separation and tea water separation mechanism, such as... Figs. 1-3 As shown, the separation mechanism includes a housing 1 and an outlet 2 opened on the housing 1 for discharging tea or hot water. The separation mechanism also includes a tea inlet 3 and a water inlet 4 opened on one side of the housing 1 for tea to enter and for hot water to enter, respectively, as well as a tea channel 5 and a pure water channel 6 respectively arranged in the housing 1 and communicating with the tea inlet 3 and the water inlet 4. The end of the tea channel 5 away from the tea inlet 3 and the end of the pure water channel 6 away from the water inlet 4 are both connected to the outlet 2. A steam vent 7 is provided in the housing 1 at the position corresponding to the outlet 2 for discharging water vapor. A buffer structure 8 is provided in the tea channel 5 and the pure water channel 6 for buffering and separating water vapor from tea soup and water vapor from hot water.
[0030] When in use, when tea is needed, tea enters the tea channel 5 through the tea inlet 3 and flows to the outlet 2. When hot water is needed, hot water enters the pure water channel 6 through the water inlet 4 and flows to the outlet 2. This prevents the tea and hot water from mixing flavors when brewed separately. Simultaneously, when tea flows through the tea channel 5 or hot water flows through the pure water channel 6, the buffer structure 8 alters the flow path and speed, causing the steam to gradually separate from the tea or hot water. As the tea or hot water flows through the channel, the steam gradually rises and accumulates at the top of the tea channel 5 or pure water channel 6, finally exiting through the steam vent 7, thus reducing splashing at the outlet 2.
[0031] Specifically, the buffer structure 8 includes a first separation partition 81 fixedly installed in the tea channel 5 near one end of the tea inlet hole 3, a second separation partition 82 installed in the tea channel 5 and located on the side of the first separation partition 81 away from the tea inlet hole 3, and a third separation partition 83 fixedly installed in the tea channel 5 near one end of the outlet 2.
[0032] When the tea water enters the tea water channel 5 from the tea inlet hole 3 and then flows to the outlet hole 2, the tea water will first pass through the buffer block and guide of the first separation partition 81, change the flow path of the tea water, and preliminarily reduce the speed of the tea water. At this time, part of the water vapor in the tea water can start to rise. Then, the tea water continues to flow to the second separation partition 82 after being guided by the first separation partition 81. The second separation partition 82 can further reduce the flow of the tea water, so that the remaining water vapor in the tea water can continue to be separated and rise. After being guided by the second separation partition 82, the tea water continues to flow to the third separation partition 83. The third separation partition 83 can further reduce the flow of the tea water, so that the remaining water vapor in the tea water can be better separated and rise. The water vapor that has risen is discharged through the steam outlet hole 7, and the tea water from which the water vapor has been separated is discharged to the outlet hole 2 under the guidance of the third separation partition 83.
[0033] In order to preliminarily separate the tea water and the water vapor, the first separation partition 81 is in a reverse V-shaped structure. Since the water vapor is usually lighter than the tea water, the reverse V-shaped structure of the first separation partition 81 can provide more rising space for the water vapor, which is helpful for the water vapor to be effectively separated from the tea water in the preliminary stage.
[0034] In addition, in order to further separate the tea water and the water vapor, the second separation partition 82 includes two inclined plates 821 that are symmetrically and fixedly arranged in the tea water channel 5 and located on the side of the first separation partition 81 away from the tea inlet hole 3. The lower side of the two inclined plates 821 is close to the third separation partition 83. On the basis of the preliminary separation of the water vapor by the first separation partition 81, the inclined plates 821 of the second separation partition 82 can further promote the separation of the water vapor and the tea water, so that the water vapor is more easily lifted and bypasses the inclined plates 821, while the tea water flows along the inclined plates 821 to the third separation partition 83, thereby achieving a more efficient separation effect.
[0035] Further, the buffer structure 8 further includes a fourth separation partition 84 fixedly arranged in the pure water channel 6 close to the outlet hole 2. When the hot water enters the pure water channel 6 from the water inlet hole 4 and then flows to the outlet hole 2, the fourth separation partition 84 arranged in the pure water channel 6 will block and buffer the hot water flowing to the outlet hole 2, reduce the flow speed of the hot water, so that more water vapor in the hot water can be separated and discharged to the upper part of the pure water channel 6 through the steam outlet hole 7.
[0036] It can be understood that the steam outlet hole 7 is provided with two steam outlet holes 7, which are respectively arranged on the third separation partition 83 and the fourth separation partition 84.
[0037] Through the two steam exhaust holes 7, when the water vapor accumulated in the tea water channel 5 and the pure water channel 6 rises, it can be guided to the vicinity of the corresponding steam exhaust hole 7 and smoothly discharged, so as to reduce the accumulation of water vapor in the tea water channel 5 and the pure water channel 6, and prevent the water vapor from being discharged at the discharge port 2, causing the phenomenon of splashing and bursting.
[0038] The above is only the preferred specific embodiment of the present application, but the protection scope of the present application is not limited to this. Any person skilled in the art can make equivalent replacement or change according to the technical scheme and concept of the present application within the technical range disclosed by the present application, which should be covered in the protection scope of the present application.
