[0037] Reference Figures 1 to 6 The present application provides a wine decanting device, which comprises a container 4 and a wine decanting assembly. The container 4 has a cavity and a neck 16. The cavity is placed on a table top or the like to support the entire wine decanting device. The interior of the cavity has a chamber for containing wine. The neck 16 is provided with a passage in communication with the chamber and has an opening. The extension direction of the neck 16 includes but is not limited to vertical upward, and can also have a tendency to extend upward, but is inclined relative to the vertical direction. The present application provides one of the structural shapes of the container 4. The cavity is an approximately elliptical bottle body supported on the table top. The neck 16 is a bottle neck extending vertically upward. Correspondingly, the opening is arranged upward.

[0038] The wine decanting assembly has a combined state of combining with the neck 16 and decanting the wine in the chamber, and a separated state of separating from the neck 16. The specific combination mode includes but is not limited to sliding connection, rotating connection or detachable connection between the wine decanting assembly and the container 4. The wine decanting assembly comprises a wine circulating mechanism and a control unit. The wine circulating mechanism comprises an inlet pipe 1302 in the chamber, an outlet pipe 14, and a first power device 1202 connecting the inlet pipe 1302 and the outlet pipe 14 to circulate the wine. The control unit is used to control the work of the first power device 1202. The inlet pipe 1302 is arranged close to the bottom of the container 4, so that it can be below the liquid level. The outlet pipe 14 is preferably arranged above the liquid level, for example, close to the top of the chamber, so that the wine can contact the oxygen in the air. The first power device 1202 includes but is not limited to a water pump.

[0039] The specific wine decanting process is as follows:

[0040] The wine decanting time is set by the control unit. The control unit drives the first power device 1202 to work to suck the wine in the chamber through the inlet pipe 1302, and then send it out through the outlet pipe 14. The wine is mixed with the oxygen in the air when it is sent out, and the circulation is repeated to achieve wine decanting.

[0041] For the embodiment in which the wine decanting assembly is detachably connected to the opening, and the neck is arranged vertically upward, the disassembly between the wine decanting assembly and the container, and the insertion and withdrawal between the inlet pipe 1302, the outlet pipe 14 and the container are facilitated.

[0042] The wine awakening device of the present application is characterized in that the container is arranged below as a base, and the wine awakening assembly is arranged at the neck of the container, which is different from and contrary to the existing structure. When pouring wine, the wine awakening assembly can be switched to a separated state to facilitate pouring wine, and when standing, the wine awakening assembly can be switched to a combined state to facilitate operation.

[0043] In an embodiment, the outlet of the liquid outlet pipe 14 is provided with a spray head 1401 for atomizing wine, so that the wine forms a fine atomized state after being sprayed, increases the contact with air, fully mixes with oxygen in the air, and improves the wine awakening efficiency. In the combined state, the wine awakening assembly seals the opening to prevent bacteria, dust, etc. from entering the container 4 and affecting the wine awakening effect.

[0044] Specifically, the wine awakening assembly includes a shell 10, and a wine circulating mechanism is installed in the shell 10. The shell 10 is provided with a sealing rubber ring 15, and the shell 10 is tightly matched with the inner wall of the neck 16 through the sealing rubber ring 15. On the one hand, the opening is sealed in the combined state, and on the other hand, the disassembly and assembly of the wine awakening assembly are not affected.

[0045] During the mixing process of air and wine, the air in the chamber will gradually decrease. In an embodiment, the wine awakening assembly further includes a replacement air mechanism installed in the shell 10. The replacement air mechanism includes an air outlet pipe 1301 and a second power device 1201. The air outlet pipe 1301 extends into the chamber, and the second power device 1201 communicates the outside atmosphere with the air outlet pipe 1301. The second power device 1201 is controlled by the control unit and is used to send outside air into the chamber through the air outlet pipe 1301 to supplement air in the chamber. For example, the air outlet pipe 1301 is flush with the liquid inlet pipe 1302, and for example, the air outlet of the air outlet pipe 1301 is located between the liquid inlet of the liquid inlet pipe 1302 and the spray head 1401.

[0046] If the amount of air supplement is too large, it is easy to cause the internal air pressure to be greater than the external air pressure, which may lift the wine awakening assembly, and after the air in the chamber mixes with the wine, the pressure in the chamber is less than the external atmosphere, which is not easy to pull out the wine awakening assembly. In an embodiment, the sealing rubber ring 15 is provided with a gap for ventilation to balance the air pressure inside and outside the chamber. The gap can be a simple hole or a cut, and the gap can be always open to allow air to enter and exit, or the sealing rubber ring 15 can open or close the gap by its own elastic force and deformation ability. For example, when the internal air pressure increases, the gap is opened to exhaust air, and after the internal and external pressures are balanced, the gap is closed.

[0047] For the specific structure of the wine awakening assembly:

[0048] The shell 10 comprises a hollow cylindrical structure, and a mounting seat 1206 connected with the cylindrical structure. After the wine awakening assembly and the container are combined, the outer surfaces of the shell 10 and the container 4 are smoothly and integrally transitioned, and the appearance is more simple. The shell 10 is in the shape of a cylinder, a tapered cylinder or a square cylinder, for example. The mounting seat 1206 divides the inside of the cylindrical structure into upper and lower parts. The first power device 1202 and the second power device 1201 are arranged above the mounting seat 1206. The air outlet of the air outlet pipe 1301, the liquid inlet of the liquid inlet pipe 1302 and the liquid outlet of the liquid outlet pipe 14 are arranged below the mounting seat 1206. The mounting seat 1206 is provided with connecting columns that are respectively connected with the air outlet pipe 1301, the liquid inlet pipe 1302 and the liquid outlet pipe 14. The first power device 1202 and the second power device 1201 are connected with the corresponding connecting columns through hoses. Specifically, the second power device 1201 is connected with an air outlet hose 1205, the first power device 1202 is connected with a liquid inlet hose 1204, and the liquid outlet hose 1203. The air outlet pipe 1301, the liquid inlet pipe 1302 and the liquid outlet pipe 14 are hoses or hard pipes. In a preferred embodiment, the air outlet pipe 1301, the liquid inlet pipe 1302 and the liquid outlet pipe 14 are hard pipes. The shape of the container 4 and the disassembly direction of the wine awakening assembly need to be combined. In an embodiment, the container 4 is in the shape of a circle with a 360° rotation around a vertical line. The liquid outlet of the liquid outlet pipe 14 is located on the center line, thereby improving the contact efficiency of the liquid outlet pipe 14 and air.

[0049] The control unit comprises a battery 11, a circuit board 9 and an operation panel arranged in the shell 10. The shell 10 is provided with a charging port 1001 that is electrically connected with the circuit board 9 and is controlled by a control program in the circuit board 9. The battery 11 supplies power to the circuit board 9. The operation panel is connected with the circuit board 9 and comprises the host top cover plate 6 and the UI operation panel 5. The operation panel covers the top end of the shell 10. The circuit board 9 is also electrically connected with the first power device 1202 and the second power device 1201, and is used to control the operation of the first power device 1202 and the second power device 1201.

[0050] The wine awakening device of the present application has the container serving as a base and the wine awakening assembly arranged at the neck of the container. Different from the existing structure, the wine awakening assembly can be switched to a separated state during wine pouring, thereby facilitating wine pouring. When the wine is left to stand, the wine awakening assembly can be switched to a combined state, thereby facilitating operation and continuing wine awakening.

[0051] The technical features of the above embodiments can be combined in any manner. To make the description concise, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are described. However, as long as the combinations of the technical features do not contradict each other, they should be considered as falling within the scope of the present disclosure. When the technical features in different embodiments are embodied in the same drawing, it can be considered that the drawing also discloses the combination of the embodiments involved.

[0052] The above embodiments only express several implementation ways of the present application, and the description is specific and detailed, but it should not be understood as a limitation to the patent scope. It should be pointed out that, for ordinary skilled in the art, without departing from the concept of the present application, several modifications and improvements can be made, which are all within the protection scope of the present application.
