Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the field of coffee measurement, and in particular to a powder scraping device. BACKGROUND
[0002] In some production or competition scenarios, it is necessary to measure the color value of coffee powder. However, there are many variables that affect the color value of coffee powder. In order to improve the color value measurement accuracy of coffee powder, multiple portions of coffee powder are usually measured for color value, and the average value of the color value measurement results of each portion of coffee powder is taken as the color value of the coffee powder. However, factors such as the distance between the coffee powder and the colorimeter and the arrangement density of the coffee powder will affect the color value measurement of the coffee powder. Therefore, in the prior art, multiple measuring discs are filled with coffee powder, and a ruler is used to compact and scrape the coffee powder in the measuring disc, and then the color value of the coffee powder in each measuring disc is measured. However, this measurement method is relatively cumbersome and is not user-friendly.
[0003] Furthermore, the ruler in the prior art is generally a straight ruler. The straight ruler can have good effect when applied to relatively fine powder, but when applied to relatively coarse powder, such as cold extraction powder in coffee powder, the straight ruler will scratch deep grooves on the surface of the powder when scraping the powder due to the relatively large particles. Since there is more than one large particle powder on the surface of the powder disc, the straight ruler will accumulate scratches when scraping the surface, resulting in unevenness of the surface and further causing color value measurement error.

[0031] As shown in FIG. 1, Figures 1 to 2 As shown in FIG. 1, Figure 1 is an appearance structural schematic diagram of a powder scraper according to an embodiment of the present application, Figure 2 is Figure 1 is an exploded structural schematic diagram of the powder scraper shown in FIG. 1. The powder scraper 1 comprises a bottom plate 11 and a powder scraping module 12 which are detachable from each other. The bottom plate 11 is provided with at least one powder tray 111. The powder scraping module comprises at least one powder scraping structure (not shown in the figure) corresponding to the at least one powder tray 111 respectively, and a driving module (not shown in the figure) for driving the at least one powder scraping structure to rotate. In Figure 2 , it is exemplified that the bottom plate 11 is provided with three powder trays 111, and the powder scraping module comprises three powder scraping structures. Alternatively, the three powder trays 111 can be arranged in a row, or as shown in Figure 2The plurality of powder trays are arranged in an equilateral triangle. The plurality of powder trays can facilitate the user to sequentially measure the attribute parameters of the powders in the plurality of powder trays, for example, to measure the color values of the coffee powders in the plurality of powder trays, and to average the detection results of the plurality of powder trays to obtain the final detection result.
[0032] Figure 3 and Figure 4 are respectively schematic diagrams of the explosion structure of the powder scraping module in the powder scraper of an embodiment of the present application in two different perspectives. As shown in Figure 3 , the powder scraping structure 121 in the powder scraping module 12 comprises at least one curved scraping sheet 1211. As shown in Figure 5 , the powder scraping structure 121 in the powder scraping module 12 comprises at least one curved scraping sheet 1211. As shown in Figure 5 , the powder scraping structure 121 in the powder scraping module 12 comprises at least one curved scraping sheet 1211. As shown in Figure 3 , the powder scraping structure 121 in the powder scraping module 12 comprises at least one curved scraping sheet 1211. As shown in
[0033] In some examples, the extending curve of the scraping sheet on the top surface of the powder tray is a trajectory formed by the superposition of the straight line motion along the straight line from the center of the powder tray to the edge of the powder tray and the circular motion around the center of the powder tray, with the center of the powder tray as the starting point. The straight line motion along the straight line from the center of the powder tray to the edge of the powder tray can be uniform linear motion, or equal acceleration linear motion, or variable acceleration linear motion, which is not limited herein. The circular motion around the center of the powder tray can be equal angular velocity circular motion, or variable angular velocity circular motion with fixed acceleration, or variable angular velocity circular motion with variable acceleration, which is not limited herein. For example, the extending curve of the scraping sheet on the top surface of the powder tray can be fan-shaped, arc-shaped or other curved shapes. For another example, as shown in Figure 5 , the extending curve of the scraping sheet 1211 on the top surface of the powder tray is an Archimedes spiral with the center of the powder tray as the starting point.
[0034] In the embodiments of the present application, the powder on the powder disc is scraped flat by driving the scraping structure to rotate, so that the powder can be scraped automatically, and the user can operate conveniently. The scraping structure includes at least one scraping sheet in a curved shape, and the driving module is used to drive the at least one scraping sheet to rotate around the center of the corresponding powder disc. Compared with a ruler-shaped scraper, the scraping sheet has a longer powder scraping path, and can push the large-particle powder to be flush with the top surface of the powder disc or out of the powder disc in a shorter time. In addition, the powder on the powder disc can be filled into the grooves caused by scraping the large-particle powder in the process of rotation, so that the surface of the powder disc is more flat. In addition, each scraping sheet stands on the top surface of the corresponding powder disc, and the extension trajectory on the top surface is a gradually extending curve extending from the center of the powder disc to the edge of the powder disc. The powder on the powder disc can be dispersed from the center to the periphery along the gradually opening trajectory of the curve under the pushing of the gradually extending curve. When the powder contacts the wall of the powder disc, the powder will move out of the powder disc along the trajectory.
[0035] Optionally, each scraping structure 121 includes two or three scraping sheets 1211 extending from the center to the periphery of the corresponding powder disc, and the two or three scraping sheets 1211 are distributed in rotational symmetry. The use of two or three scraping sheets can improve the scraping efficiency to quickly scrape the powder on the powder disc flat, and the structure processing cost is also lower. Alternatively, in some examples, the two or three scraping sheets can also be in different curved shapes, which is not limited here.
[0036] Optionally, as shown in Figures 2 to 5 The bottom disc 11 is provided with at least a first powder disc 111 and a second powder disc 112. The scraping module 12 includes a first support 123 and a second support 124 located above the first powder disc 111 and the second powder disc 112 respectively. The at least one scraping structure includes a first scraping structure 121 and a second scraping structure 122 fixed on one side of the first support 123 and the second support 124 respectively, which faces the bottom disc 11. The driving module includes a first driven gear 125 and a second driven gear 126 fixed on one side of the first support 123 and the second support 124 respectively, which faces away from the bottom disc 11, a driving gear 127 matched with the first driven gear 125 and the second driven gear 126, and a driving member (not shown in the figure) for driving the driving gear 127 to rotate.
[0037] Alternatively, in some examples, the first driven gear and the second driven gear can also not be simultaneously driven to rotate by the driving gear, but the driving gear and the first driven gear can be matched, and the second driven gear and the first driven gear can be matched, so that after the driving gear drives the first driven gear to rotate, the first driven gear drives the second driven gear to rotate.
[0038] In the example in which the base disc is provided with at least three powder discs, optionally, the at least three powder discs are arranged around the center, so that the at least three driven gears corresponding to the at least three powder discs are arranged around the driving gear 127 and matched with the driving gear 127, so that the driving gear drives the at least three driven gears corresponding to the at least three powder discs to rotate simultaneously. Alternatively, optionally, the at least three powder discs and the at least three driven gears corresponding to the at least three powder discs are arranged in a row respectively, and any two adjacent driven gears are matched two by two, and the driving gear drives one driven gear located at the edge of the row to rotate, and then drives other driven gears to rotate in turn.
[0039] Optionally, as shown in Figures 3 to 5 the first support 123 is annular, and the first powder scraping structure 121 includes at least one scraping sheet 1211 extending from the center of the annular first support 123 to the first support. The powder scraping module further includes an upper cover 128 covering the first driven gear 125 and the second driven gear 126 and fixed with the first support 123 and the second support 124, and the upper cover 128 is provided with a powder inlet through hole 1281 corresponding to the center through hole of the first support 123.
[0040] When the powder scraping module 12 covers the base disc 11, even during the process in which the driving module drives the powder scraping structures to rotate to scrape powder, the user can add powder to the powder inlet through hole 1281 of the upper cover 128 in real time. The powder heated from the powder inlet through hole of the upper cover can fall into the corresponding powder disc through the center through hole of the first support 123. In the example in which the base disc 11 is provided with at least two powder discs, optionally, the upper cover 128 is provided with at least two powder inlet through holes corresponding to the at least two powder discs one by one, and each powder inlet through hole is used to add powder to each corresponding powder disc.
[0041] Optionally, the upper cover 128 is further provided with a handle 1282 on the side away from the first support and the second support, the inner cavity of the handle 1282 is used to accommodate the driving member, and the surface of the handle 1282 is provided with a control button (not shown in the figure) for controlling the start and stop of the driving member, so as to control the at least one powder scraping structure to scrape the powder in the corresponding powder disc.
[0042] In some examples, the base 11 can include a base and a cover that are detachable from each other. Figure 6 is an exploded structural schematic diagram of the powder scraper according to an embodiment of the present application. As shown, the base 11 includes a base 13 and a cover 14 stacked one on top of the other, wherein the at least one powder tray is arranged on the base 13, and the periphery of each of the powder trays (e.g. the periphery 1111 of the coffee tray 111) is raised on the base 13. The cover 14 is provided with through holes 141 corresponding to the at least one powder tray one by one, each of the through holes 141 is sleeved outside the raised periphery of the corresponding powder tray, so that the top surface of the powder tray and the side of the cover facing the powder scraping module are flush. Figure 6
[0043] After the powder scraping structure scrapes the powder that is higher than the top surface of the powder tray out of the powder tray, the powder will accumulate on the outer edge of the powder tray, affecting the user's measurement of the powder in the powder tray. By arranging the cover in the base 11, the powder that is higher than the top surface of the powder tray can be scraped onto the surface of the cover. Since the base and the cover are detachably arranged, the cover can be removed from the base, and the periphery of each of the powder trays on the base remains clean and tidy, facilitating the user's measurement of the scraped powder in each of the powder trays.
[0044] The above has described the embodiments of the present application, and the above description is exemplary and is not exhaustive, and is not limited to the disclosed embodiments. Many modifications and changes will be apparent to those of ordinary skill in the art without departing from the scope and spirit of the described embodiments. The selection of the terms used herein is intended to best explain the principles of the embodiments, practical application, or improvement to the technology in the market, or to enable other ordinary skilled persons in the art to understand the embodiments disclosed herein.
