Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of maternal and infant products technology, specifically to a milk warmer that can reduce the temperature of the measuring environment. Background Technology
[0002] This section provides only background information related to this application to enable those skilled in the art to understand this application more thoroughly and accurately, and it is not necessarily prior art.
[0003] When feeding an infant with formula, you need to add an appropriate amount of warm water to the bottle, then add the appropriate amount of formula powder. After putting on the nipple, you shake the bottle back and forth with both hands to dissolve the formula. This method is not only time-consuming and laborious, but it also cannot ensure that the formula powder dissolves completely, often resulting in clumps forming on the inner wall of the bottle, causing waste. In addition, this manual shaking method makes it difficult to ensure that the milk is shaken evenly, and it is easy to create air bubbles in the milk in the bottle, causing the infant to experience bloating, hiccups, and other problems.
[0004] To address these issues, automatic bottle shakers have emerged on the market, freeing users' hands, saving time and effort, and ensuring thorough dissolution of formula. Currently, most automatic bottle shakers use non-contact temperature sensing methods, such as infrared sensors, to measure the temperature of the milk in the bottle. Additionally, most automatic bottle shakers also have a milk warming function. During the warming process, the shaker's temperature can be quite high. When the infrared sensor is used in excessively high-temperature environments, its temperature measurement can be prone to errors, thus reducing accuracy.
[0005] Therefore, how to make infrared detectors work in a normal temperature environment is a technical problem that urgently needs to be solved by those skilled in the art. Utility Model Content

[0040] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this invention pertains. The terminology used herein is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to be limiting of the invention.
[0041] See Figure 1-7 This invention provides a milk warmer that can reduce the temperature of the measuring environment. It includes a mounting bracket 1, a bottle basket 2 for holding the bottles, and an infrared probe 3 for measuring the temperature of the bottles. The bottle basket 2 extends from one side of the top surface of the mounting bracket 1 into the interior of the mounting bracket 1. The infrared probe 3 is located inside the mounting bracket 1 and below the bottle basket 2. The infrared rays emitted by the infrared probe 3 can illuminate the bottom of the bottles to achieve temperature measurement. It also includes an air supply element 91 disposed within the mounting bracket 1, and the interior of the mounting bracket 1 forms a first air duct communicating with the infrared probe 3. Under the action of the air supply element 91, cold air can be delivered into the first air duct to achieve cooling. Preferably, the air supply element 91 is a fan.
[0042] Therefore, by setting an air supply element 91 inside the mounting bracket 1, and forming a first air duct inside the mounting bracket 1 that connects to the infrared probe 3, the air supply element 91 can deliver cold air to the first air duct to cool the surrounding environment of the infrared probe 3, thereby enabling the infrared probe 3 to work in a normal temperature environment and thus ensuring the temperature measurement accuracy of the infrared probe 3.
[0043] Furthermore, the mounting bracket 1 also forms a second air duct that connects to the inside of the bottle basket 2. A heating element 92 is installed within this second air duct; preferably, the heating element 92 is a PTC heating element. The air outlet of the first air duct is connected to the air inlet of the second air duct. A fan is located at the connection between the air outlet of the first air duct and the air inlet of the second air duct, and the PTC heating element is located at the air outlet of the fan.
[0044] Thus, under the action of the fan, outside air can enter the first air duct to cool the surrounding environment of the infrared sensor, then enter the air inlet of the fan, and then be discharged from the air outlet of the fan and heated by the PTC heating element. The heated air enters the bottle basket 2 through the second air duct to heat the bottle, thereby achieving warming the milk.
[0045] In this embodiment, the side wall of the bottle basket 2 is provided with several air inlets 21 for hot air to enter.
[0046] See Figure 2-3 as well as Figure 5-6 The mounting bracket 1 includes an upper bracket 11, a middle bracket 12, and a lower bracket 13 connected sequentially from top to bottom. The upper bracket 11 has a first enclosure 111 at its bottom, surrounding the bottle basket 2. The middle bracket 12 has a second enclosure 121 at its top, which cooperates with the first enclosure 111. When the upper bracket 11 and the middle bracket 12 are connected, the first enclosure 111 and the second enclosure 121 cooperate to form a second air duct. The middle bracket 12 has a third enclosure 122 at its bottom. The lower bracket 13 has a fourth enclosure 131 at its upper part, which cooperates with the third enclosure 122. When the lower bracket 13 and the middle bracket 12 are connected, the fourth enclosure 131 and the third enclosure 122 cooperate to form a first air duct.
[0047] See also Figure 4The milk shaker and warmer also includes a fixed base 4 fixedly mounted on the mounting bracket 1 and a rotating base 5 rotatably mounted on the fixed base 4 and connected to the bottle basket 2.

The side wall of the rotating base 5 is provided with a plurality of second grille holes 51 communicating with the first grille holes 43 along the circumferential direction. In addition, the fixed base 4 is also provided with openings 44 communicating with the outside air and the first air duct respectively.
[0048] Therefore, under the action of the fan, outside air can enter the first air duct by passing through the opening 44, the first grille hole 43 and the second grille hole 51 in sequence, thereby continuously cooling the external environment of the infrared probe 3 and ensuring that the infrared probe 3 can work under normal ambient temperature.
[0049] Specifically, the mounting base 4 includes a cup-shaped base 41 and a cylindrical boss 42 disposed within the base 41, with the infrared probe 3 passing through the top of the boss 42. The base 41 and the boss 42 form a mounting groove, and the rotating base 5 is rotatably mounted within this groove. Both the base 41 and the boss 42 have first grid holes 43 along their circumferential direction on their sidewalls. The bottom of the base 41 has an opening 44 communicating with the boss 42.
[0050] In this embodiment, a bearing 7 is also provided in the mounting groove, and the rotating seat 5 is rotatably mounted in the mounting groove via the bearing 7.
[0051] See also Figure 4 and Figure 7 The rotating base 5 is also equipped with a protective cover 6 for covering the infrared probe 3. The bottom of the bottle basket 2 has a first through hole that connects to the protective cover 6. The infrared rays emitted by the infrared probe 3 can pass through the protective cover 6 and the first through hole and illuminate the bottom of the bottle. Preferably, the protective cover 6 is a quartz glass cover.
[0052] Furthermore, it also includes a support base 8 disposed at the bottom of the bottle basket 2 for support, and the rotating seat 5 is connected to the support base 8. The support base 8 has a second through hole that connects to the first through hole, and the infrared rays emitted by the infrared probe 3 can pass through the protective cover 6, the second through hole and the first through hole and illuminate the bottom of the bottle.
