Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model applies to the technical field of powder distributors, and particularly relates to a novel electric powder distributor. Background Technology

[0002] Grinding coffee beans is a crucial step in the coffee-making process, currently primarily done using electric grinders. Compared to traditional hand grinders, electric grinders offer advantages such as faster grinding and more uniform particle size. During grinding, the portafilter basket needs to be positioned below the grinder's outlet. Due to the faster and more consistent angle of the electric grinder, the coffee grounds bounce back during contact with the basket, sometimes causing them to pop out. Furthermore, the coffee grounds can easily accumulate on one side of the basket during this process. During the coffee grounds collection and transfer process, coffee grounds tend to collapse and overflow, leading to unnecessary waste. After collection, a dispensing operation is required. However, because the coffee grounds tend to accumulate on one side of the portafilter, uneven distribution occurs during the dispensing process, resulting in a deterioration in the extracted flavor and affecting the coffee's taste. Furthermore, different types of coffee require portafilters of varying depths for extraction. Traditional dispensers cannot replace the dispensing needles, necessitating different dispensers for different portafilter depths, which is costly and places high demands on the storage space for these dispensers. A new type of electric dispenser, simple in structure, easy to operate, capable of simultaneous vibration dispensing during collection, and adaptively adjusting to the depth of the portafilter, could solve these problems. Utility Model Content

[0003] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art and provide a new type of electric powder dispenser that is simple in structure, easy to operate, can synchronously vibrate and distribute powder during the powder dispensing process, and can adaptively adjust according to the depth of the coffee powder bowl.

[0004] The technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows: This utility model includes a base and a powder dispenser module. The powder dispenser module includes a rotary motor, a rotating ring, and a powder dispenser frame. A rotating opening is provided in the middle of the base. The rotating ring is rotatably engaged with the rotating opening. The rotary motor is located on one side of the base and rotatably engaged with the outer edge of the rotating ring. A plurality of lifting grooves are provided on the inner side of the rotating ring. A plurality of limiting blocks are provided on the outer side of the powder dispenser frame. The plurality of limiting blocks are engaged with the plurality of lifting grooves. The rotating ring drives the powder dispenser frame's powder dispensing needle end to engage with the external powder bowl.

[0005] Furthermore, the powder distribution frame includes a support shaft and several support arms. Several powder distribution needles are provided on the lower end face of the support arms. One end of each support arm is connected to the support shaft. A limiting block is provided at the other end of the support arm. The support arm cooperates with the lifting groove through the limiting block.

[0006] Furthermore, the support arm is configured as an arc-shaped rod structure, and several support arms are evenly arranged on the outside of the support shaft, with the arc rotation direction of several support arms being the same.

[0007] Furthermore, the upper end of the support arm is provided with a conical protrusion, and the upper end of the support shaft is provided with a conical protrusion. The conical protrusion and the conical protrusion cooperate with the material falling into the inner side of the rotating ring.

[0008] Furthermore, the lifting groove is configured as a rectangular structure and is located on the upper inner side of the rotating ring. The two sides and the bottom of the limiting block are respectively adapted to the long sides of the lifting groove and the short side of the bottom. The limiting block and the lifting groove are in sliding cooperation.

[0009] Furthermore, a fixing plate is provided at the lower end of the base, the upper end of the fixing plate is engaged with the bottom of the outer edge of the rotating ring, and a powder bowl limiting groove is provided at the lower end of the fixing plate, which conforms to the outer edge of the upper end of the outer powder bowl.

[0010] Furthermore, the powder bowl limiting groove is provided with a number of adsorption magnets, and the adsorption magnets are adsorbed and engaged with the upper outer edge of the outer powder bowl.

[0011] Furthermore, a top cover is provided on the upper surface of the base, and a feed inlet is provided in the middle of the top cover. The inner diameter of the feed inlet is smaller than the inner diameter of the rotating ring, and the ends of several support arms are limited and matched with the edge of the feed inlet.

[0012] Furthermore, a number of sets of balance columns are provided on the outer side of the base, and a mounting slot is provided in the middle of the balance column. The rotary motor is installed in one of the mounting slots, and a vibration motor is installed in one of the mounting slots.

[0013] Furthermore, the bottom heights of several of the aforementioned balance columns are the same.

[0014] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: the powder dispenser can be adjusted in height by sliding the limiting block on the groove, which can adapt to the different heights of the coffee bowl, making it highly adaptable. The two sets of matching balance columns cooperate with the limiting end of the coffee portafilter, allowing the base to accurately align with the coffee bowl. The coffee bowl is attracted and positioned by the coffee bowl contour groove and magnetic block, ensuring that there is no deviation or fall-off during the powder dispensing and dispensing process. At the same time, the powder can be vibrated during the powder dispensing operation, effectively preventing coffee powder from popping out or accumulating on one side of the coffee bowl. The powder dispensing operation can be carried out simultaneously with the vibration dispensing operation, so that the coffee powder can be dispensed immediately after the powder dispensing is completed, which is more efficient. Moreover, the bottom height of several sets of balance columns is the same, so they can be placed stably on the operating table after use, avoiding the scratches of the operator or external equipment by several powder dispensing needles. The structure is simple and the operation is convenient. Attached Figure Description

[0024] like Figures 1 to 9As shown in this embodiment, the present invention includes a base 1 and a powder dispenser module 2. The powder dispenser module 2 includes a rotary motor 3, a rotating ring 4, and a powder dispenser frame 5. A rotating opening 6 is provided in the middle of the base 1. The rotating ring 4 is rotatably engaged with the rotating opening 6. The rotary motor 3 is located on one side of the base 1 and is rotatably engaged with the outer edge of the rotating ring 4. A plurality of lifting grooves 7 are provided on the inner side of the rotating ring 4. A plurality of limiting blocks 8 are provided on the outer side of the powder dispenser frame 5. The plurality of limiting blocks 8 are engaged with the plurality of lifting grooves 7. The rotating ring 4 drives the powder dispenser frame 5 to engage with the powder dispensing needle end of the powder dispenser frame 5. Therefore, the limiting block 8 can move vertically on the lifting groove 7. When the bottom of the base 1 is connected to the external coffee bowl, several powder dispensing needles at the bottom of the powder dispensing rack 5 contact the bottom of the coffee bowl. The powder dispensing rack 5 adjusts its height according to the depth of the coffee bowl. During the rotation of the rotating ring 4, the powder dispensing rack 5 is driven to rotate, so that several powder dispensing needles at the lower end of the powder dispensing rack 5 contact the coffee powder in the coffee bowl and rotate to dispense the powder.

[0025] like Figures 5 to 9 As shown, in this embodiment, the powder distribution frame 5 includes a support shaft 51 and several support arms 52. Several powder distribution needles 53 are provided on the lower end face of each support arm 52. One end of each support arm 52 is connected to the support shaft 51, and a limiting block 8 is disposed at the other end of each support arm 52. The support arm 52 cooperates with the lifting groove 7 through the limiting block 8. Therefore, the several support arms 52 serve as the overall support for the powder distribution frame 5. Multiple sets of support arms 52 are connected by the support shaft 51, and the cooperation between the limiting block 8 and the lifting groove 7 allows the rotating ring 4 to drive the powder distribution frame 5 to rotate.

[0026] like Figures 6 to 8 As shown, in this embodiment, the support arm 52 is configured as an arc-shaped rod structure, and several support arms 52 are evenly arranged on the outside of the support shaft 51, with the arc rotation direction of the several support arms 52 being the same. Therefore, the arc-shaped rod structure can provide good support force without significantly obstructing the falling coffee powder. When the arc rotation direction is the same, the force-bearing area of ​​the rotating ring 4 and the powder distribution rack 5 is more uniform, resulting in high rotation efficiency.

[0027] like Figures 6 to 8 As shown, in this embodiment, the upper end of the support arm 52 is provided with a conical protrusion 54, and the upper end of the support shaft 51 is provided with a conical protrusion 55. The conical protrusion 54 and the conical protrusion 55 cooperate with the material falling into the inner side of the rotating ring 4. Therefore, the conical protrusion 54 and the conical protrusion 55 prevent the coffee powder from sticking to the upper end of the support arm 52 or the support shaft 51 during the falling process, thus preventing rebound and accumulation, and allowing the coffee powder to fall into the coffee bowl more effectively.

[0028] like Figures 6 to 9 As shown in the figure, in this embodiment, the lifting groove 7 is configured as a rectangular structure and is located on the upper inner side of the rotating ring 4. The two sides and bottom of the limiting block 8 are respectively adapted to the long sides of the lifting groove 7 and the short side of the bottom. The limiting block 8 and the lifting groove 7 are in sliding engagement. Therefore, in the normal state, the powder holder 5 is suspended in the middle of the inner side of the rotating ring 4. Depending on the height of the powder bowl, several powder needles 53 can be lifted, allowing the powder holder 5 to adaptively rise to a suitable position, thus exhibiting strong applicability.

[0029] like Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, in this embodiment, a fixing plate 9 is provided at the lower end of the base 1. The upper end of the fixing plate 9 mates with the bottom of the outer edge of the rotating ring 4. A powder bowl limiting groove 10 is provided at the lower end of the fixing plate 9, and the powder bowl limiting groove 10 conforms to the outer edge of the upper end of the outer powder bowl. Therefore, the fixing plate 9 limits the rotating ring 4 within the rotating opening 6, facilitating disassembly, cleaning, or replacement. Simultaneously, the powder bowl limiting groove 10 enables precise docking between the base 1 and the outer powder bowl.

[0030] As shown in the figure, in this embodiment, the powder bowl limiting groove 10 is provided with a plurality of adsorption magnets 11, which are adsorbed and engaged with the upper outer edge of the outer powder bowl. Therefore, the adsorption magnets can adhere to the upper edge of the powder bowl, preventing displacement or detachment due to vibration during powder dispensing and application.

[0031] like Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown in the figure, in this embodiment, a top cover 12 is provided on the upper surface of the base 1, and a feed inlet 13 is provided in the middle of the top cover 12. The inner diameter of the feed inlet 13 is smaller than the inner diameter of the rotating ring 4, and the ends of several support arms 52 are limited and engaged with the edge of the feed inlet 13. Therefore, the top cover 12 protects the components and facilitates maintenance or component replacement. The smaller inner diameter of the feed inlet 13 compared to the rotating ring 4 effectively ensures that coffee powder falls accurately into the coffee bowl, while preventing coffee powder from entering the base 1 through the gap between the top cover 12 and the rotating ring 4 and causing contamination.

[0032] like Figure 2 and Figure 5As shown, in this embodiment, a plurality of sets of balance columns 14 are provided on the outer side of the base 1, and a mounting slot 15 is provided in the middle of the balance column 14. The rotary motor 3 is disposed in one set of the mounting slots 15, and a vibration motor 16 is disposed in one set of the mounting slots 15. It can be seen that the plurality of sets of balance columns 14 are used for the overall balance of the base 1 and to prevent the motor product or counterweight from being moved, which can effectively protect the various components.

[0033] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, in this embodiment, the bottom heights of the various balance columns 14 are the same. Therefore, having multiple balance columns 14 with the same bottom height makes them easier to place and retrieve, eliminates the need for a separate storage area, and broadens their applicability to various scenarios.

[0034] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: Before the coffee portafilter picks up coffee powder, the base 1 is placed on the upper end of the coffee portafilter bowl and lowered vertically. The two sets of balance columns 14 are matched with the handle end of the coffee portafilter and guide the base 1 to descend. The coffee portafilter bowl end is positioned on the bowl limiting groove 10 by several adsorption magnets 11. The powder distribution rack 5 adjusts its height according to the depth of the bowl. The coffee portafilter is placed at the outlet of the electric grinder. The electric grinder grinds coffee beans, and coffee powder is fed into the bowl from the rotating ring 4 through the feed inlet 13. The switch is pressed, and the vibration motor 16 vibrates to distribute the coffee powder evenly in the bowl. The rotation motor 3 rotates, driving the rotating ring 4 to rotate. The lifting groove 7 on the rotating ring 4 drives the powder distribution rack 5 to rotate, so that several powder distribution needles 53 at the lower end of the powder distribution rack 5 rotate and distribute the coffee powder in the bowl. After picking up the powder, the switch is pressed again, and the powder distributor stops running. The base 1 is removed, thus achieving adaptive depth powder distribution.

[0035] Although the embodiments of this utility model are described with reference to actual solutions, they do not constitute a limitation on the meaning of this utility model. For those skilled in the art, modifications to the implementation schemes and combinations with other schemes based on this specification are obvious.
