Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of beverage manufacturing machine technology, and in particular to a material dispensing structure and a beverage manufacturing machine. Background Technology
[0002] Beverage makers, as automated and convenient beverage preparation equipment, are widely used in various environments such as homes, offices, and restaurants. One of the core functions of a beverage maker is to accurately and quickly dispense prepared beverages into containers through a dispensing structure to meet users' immediate drinking needs. However, existing beverage maker dispensing structures have some technical defects. During operation, insufficient sealing performance can easily lead to beverage leakage, affecting equipment hygiene. Some dispensing structures are also overly complex in design, increasing manufacturing costs and maintenance difficulty. Utility Model Content
[0003] Therefore, it is necessary to provide a material distribution structure and a beverage making machine that address the problems of poor sealing and complex structure of the material distribution structure in beverage making machines.
[0004] A material dispensing structure includes: a material cylinder having a receiving cavity and a discharge port, the receiving cavity communicating with the discharge port; an operating component disposed on the material cylinder; and a sealing component disposed on the operating component, the operating component capable of driving the sealing component to have at least a first position and a second position relative to the material cylinder, wherein when the sealing component is in the first position, the sealing component closes the discharge port, and when the sealing component is in the second position, the sealing component opens the discharge port.
[0005] The first aspect of this application discloses a material dispensing structure. An operating component directly drives a sealing component to switch between a first and a second position, achieving precise control of the discharge port and thus accurate material dispensing. The sealing component effectively improves the sealing performance at the discharge port, preventing material leakage. Furthermore, the direct linkage between the operating component and the sealing component reduces the complex transmission parts found in traditional structures, simplifying the overall structure, lowering manufacturing costs, and improving production efficiency. The simplified structure also reduces maintenance difficulty and the likelihood of malfunctions. When the sealing component is in the first position, it effectively seals the discharge port, preventing material leakage and reducing environmental pollution. Switching the sealing component from the first to the second position opens the discharge port, enabling the material to be dispensed. The operating component simplifies the material dispensing operation process, facilitating control and management by operators and improving operational efficiency.
[0006] In one embodiment, the operating component is a pull rod, which is rotatable relative to the material cylinder and has at least an initial position and a final position relative to the material cylinder. By using a pull rod design for the operating component, users can easily switch the position of the sealing component through simple operation, thereby controlling the opening and closing of the discharge port. The operation is intuitive and easy to master, improving ease of use. The rotational connection between the pull rod and the material cylinder has a simple structure, reducing the failure rate and improving the overall reliability and durability of the structure. The rotation range of the pull rod relative to the material cylinder is limited to the initial and final positions, making the position switching of the sealing component more precise, ensuring that the discharge port is fully opened or fully closed when needed, avoiding poor discharge or material leakage.
[0007] In one embodiment, the pull rod includes a connecting portion and a pull rod body. The material cylinder is provided with a guide groove. At least a portion of the connecting portion is located in the guide groove. One end of the connecting portion is connected to the sealing assembly. The pull rod body is disposed on the connecting portion, and the pull rod body is located at the end of the connecting portion away from the sealing assembly. By positioning the connecting portion at the guide groove, the movement direction of the pull rod can be effectively guided, preventing the pull rod from deviating during rotation and improving the stability and reliability of the pull rod. The connection between the connecting portion and the sealing assembly ensures that the rotation of the pull rod can accurately drive the movement of the sealing assembly, achieving precise control of the discharge port, enhancing the sealing effect, and preventing material leakage. The design of the pull rod body allows for easy gripping and rotation by the operator, improving operational convenience.
[0008] In one embodiment, the feed cylinder is provided with a guide groove, the opening of which is arc-shaped. This arc matches the path of the pull rod as it rotates from its initial position to its final position. The guide groove is used to limit the rotation angle of the pull rod. By providing a guide groove whose arc matches the path of the pull rod from its initial position to its final position, the rotation angle of the pull rod can be precisely limited, ensuring that it moves within a predetermined range and avoiding over-rotation or under-rotation, thereby improving the accuracy and reliability of the operation. The arc of the guide groove matches the movement path of the pull rod, allowing the operator to complete the rotation operation of the pull rod more intuitively and smoothly, simplifying the operation process and improving work efficiency. The guiding effect of the guide groove reduces friction and collision between the pull rod and the feed cylinder during rotation, reducing wear and the incidence of failure, and extending the service life of the equipment.
[0009] In one embodiment, a reset element is further included, disposed on the material cylinder and the pull rod, which drives the pull rod to reset from its final position to its initial position. The reset element automatically drives the pull rod to reset from its final position to its initial position without manual intervention, improving the efficiency of material dispensing and reducing the workload of operators. The automatic reset function ensures that the sealing assembly accurately returns to its initial position after each dispensing operation, thereby guaranteeing the accuracy and reliability of the next dispensing operation.
[0010] In one embodiment, the reset component is a torsion spring. The pull rod has a first protrusion and a second protrusion, a first limiting groove, and a second limiting groove. The torsion spring is disposed on the first and second protrusions, with at least a portion of the torsion spring located at the first and second limiting grooves, respectively. By designing the reset component as a torsion spring and using the first and second protrusions on the pull rod assembly to fix the torsion spring, the stability of the torsion spring during movement is ensured, preventing it from falling off or shifting, thereby improving the overall structural reliability. The fact that at least a portion of the torsion spring is located at the first and second limiting grooves ensures the accuracy of the pull rod assembly during the reset process. The design of the first and second protrusions, as well as the first and second limiting grooves, makes the installation and removal of the torsion spring more convenient, facilitating daily maintenance and replacement, and reducing maintenance costs and time.
[0011] In one embodiment, the material cylinder is provided with an installation channel, and the receiving cavity, the discharge port, and the installation channel are sequentially connected. The sealing assembly is located within the installation channel, and the operating component can drive the sealing assembly to move within the installation channel, causing the sealing assembly to have at least a first position and a second position relative to the material cylinder. Through the structural design of the receiving cavity, the discharge port, and the installation channel being sequentially connected, and by installing the sealing assembly within the installation channel, the operating component can easily drive the sealing assembly to move within the installation channel, allowing the sealing assembly to switch between the first and second positions, thereby controlling the discharge port and enhancing operational flexibility. The sealing assembly can fit tightly with the discharge port to achieve a reliable sealing effect and prevent beverage leakage.
[0012] In one embodiment, the material cylinder includes a storage section and a mounting section. The mounting section is disposed on the storage section, and the operating component is disposed on the mounting section. The storage section has a receiving cavity and a discharge port, and the mounting section has an installation channel. By integrating the operating component and the sealing component on the mounting section, and since the mounting section is directly connected to the storage section, and both the receiving cavity and the discharge port are located on the storage section, this design makes the internal structure of the receiving cavity simpler, easier to clean and maintain, and ensures that materials do not remain in dead corners, thus improving the hygiene and service life of the equipment. The installation channel on the mounting section provides clear positioning and fixing points for the installation of the operating component and the sealing component, simplifying the assembly process and improving installation efficiency. At the same time, the centralized arrangement of the operating components on the mounting section makes operation more centralized and convenient, reducing the operational difficulty and time cost for operators.
[0013] In one embodiment, the sealing assembly includes a connector, a first sealing ring, and a second sealing ring. The material cylinder has an installation channel communicating with the discharge port. One end of the connector is connected to the operating component, and the end of the connector away from the operating component is located within the installation channel. The first and second sealing rings are spaced apart and fitted onto the connector, respectively abutting against the inner wall of the installation channel. By spaced apart and fitted onto the connector, and abutting against the inner wall of the installation channel, a double sealing effect is achieved. This design effectively prevents material leakage from the connection between the sealing assembly and the material cylinder, improving the reliability of the seal. The connector's connection to the operating component at one end and its location within the installation channel at the other end makes the entire sealing assembly compact, facilitating installation and maintenance. Furthermore, the way the sealing rings are fitted onto the connector simplifies the assembly process and reduces production costs.
[0014] In one embodiment, the connector is provided with a first mounting groove and a second mounting groove, and the first sealing ring and the second sealing ring are respectively adapted to the first mounting groove and the second mounting groove. The design of the first and second sealing rings being adapted to the first and second mounting grooves respectively ensures a tight fit between the first and second sealing rings and the connector, effectively preventing fluid leakage and improving sealing performance. The provision of the first and second mounting grooves simplifies the installation process of the first and second sealing rings and improves production efficiency.
[0015] In one embodiment, the operating component is a knob structure connected to the sealing component. The knob structure drives the sealing component to close and open the outlet. Rotating the knob drives the sealing component to close and open the outlet, ensuring a tight seal and preventing material leakage. Using a knob structure as the operating component allows operators to easily control the outlet's opening and closing simply by rotating the knob, making operation simple and easy to master. The knob structure also enables precise control of the outlet; rotating the knob adjusts the opening degree, allowing for flexible control of the discharge volume.
[0016] A beverage making machine includes: a housing assembly; a dispensing distribution structure as described above, the dispensing distribution structure being disposed on the housing assembly and having a receiving cavity; a refrigeration device, the refrigeration device being disposed on the housing assembly and at least a portion of the refrigeration device extending into the receiving cavity; and a control assembly, the control assembly being disposed on the housing assembly and electrically connected to the refrigeration device.
[0017] The second aspect of this application discloses a beverage making machine. By integrating the dispensing structure, refrigeration device, and control components onto a housing assembly, the machine achieves a compact and modular design, saving space and facilitating installation and maintenance. The refrigeration device extends at least partially into the receiving cavity of the dispensing structure, directly cooling the beverage raw materials or finished products within the cavity, improving refrigeration efficiency and ensuring the beverage maintains a suitable temperature during preparation. The control components are electrically connected to the refrigeration device, enabling precise adjustment of its operating state according to actual needs, achieving intelligent control for the preparation of different types of beverages. The dispensing structure provides sealing and dispensing control of materials, and its convenient operation further enhances the practicality and reliability of the equipment.

It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described in these embodiments can be combined with each other.
[0034] Many specific details are set forth in the following description in order to provide a full understanding of the invention. However, the invention may also be practiced in other ways different from those described herein, and therefore the scope of protection of the invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.

[0036] Example 1, such as Figures 1 to 9As shown, this embodiment discloses a material distribution structure, including: a material cylinder 1, the material cylinder 1 having a receiving cavity 101 and a discharge port 102, the receiving cavity 101 communicating with the discharge port 102; an operating component, the operating component being disposed on the material cylinder 1; and a sealing component 3, the sealing component 3 being disposed on the operating component, the operating component being able to drive the sealing component 3 to have at least a first position and a second position relative to the material cylinder 1, the sealing component 3 closing the discharge port 102 when it is in the first position, and the sealing component 3 opening the discharge port 102 when it is in the second position.
[0037] The first aspect of this application discloses a material distribution structure. An operating component directly drives a sealing component 3 to switch between a first position and a second position, achieving precise control of the discharge port 102 and thus accurate material distribution. The sealing component 3 effectively improves the sealing performance at the discharge port 102, preventing material leakage. Furthermore, the direct linkage structure between the operating component and the sealing component reduces the complex transmission parts found in traditional structures, simplifying the overall structure, lowering manufacturing costs, and improving production efficiency. The simplified structure also reduces maintenance difficulty and the likelihood of malfunctions. When the sealing component 3 is in the first position, it effectively seals the discharge port 102, preventing material leakage and reducing environmental pollution. Switching the sealing component 3 from the first position to the second position opens the discharge port, enabling the material discharge function. The operating component simplifies the material distribution operation process, facilitating control and management by operators and improving operational efficiency.
[0038] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, in addition to the features of the above embodiments, this embodiment further specifies that: the operating component is a pull rod 2, which is rotatable relative to the material cylinder 1, and the pull rod 2 has at least an initial position and a final position relative to the material cylinder 1. By adopting the pull rod 2 as the operating component, the user can easily switch the position of the sealing component 3 through simple operation, thereby controlling the opening and closing of the discharge port 102. The operation is intuitive and easy to master, improving the convenience of use. The rotational connection between the pull rod 2 and the material cylinder 1 has a simple structure, reducing the failure rate, while improving the overall reliability and durability of the structure. The rotation range of the pull rod 2 relative to the material cylinder 1 is limited to the initial position and the final position, making the position switching of the sealing component 3 more precise, ensuring that the discharge port 102 is fully opened or fully closed when needed, avoiding poor discharge or material leakage.

By having the connecting part 21 located at the guide groove 103, the movement direction of the pull rod 2 can be effectively guided, preventing the pull rod from deviating during rotation, thus improving the stability and reliability of the pull rod 2. The connection between the connecting part 21 and the sealing component 3 ensures that the rotation of the pull rod 2 can accurately drive the movement of the sealing component 3, achieving precise control of the discharge port 102, enhancing the sealing effect, and preventing material leakage. The design of the pull rod body 22 allows for easy gripping and rotation by the operator, improving operational convenience.

The guide groove 103 is used to limit the rotation angle of the pull rod 2. By setting the guide groove 103, the arc of its opening matches the path of the pull rod 2 rotating from the initial position to the final position, which can accurately limit the rotation angle of the pull rod 2, ensuring that it moves within a predetermined range, avoiding over-rotation or under-rotation, thereby improving the accuracy and reliability of operation. The arc of the guide groove 103 matches the movement path of the pull rod 2, allowing the operator to complete the rotation operation of the pull rod 2 more intuitively and smoothly, simplifying the operation process and improving work efficiency. The guiding effect of the guide groove 103 reduces the friction and collision between the pull rod 2 and the material cylinder 1 during rotation, reducing wear and the incidence of failure, and extending the service life of the equipment.
[0041] like Figure 3 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, in addition to the features of the above embodiments, this embodiment further includes a reset component 4, which is disposed on the material cylinder 1 and the pull rod 2. The reset component 4 is used to drive the pull rod 2 to reset from the final position to the initial position. The reset component 4 automatically drives the pull rod 2 to reset from the final position to the initial position without manual intervention, improving the efficiency of material dispensing and reducing the labor intensity of operators. The automatic reset function ensures that the sealing assembly 3 accurately returns to the initial position after each dispensing, thereby guaranteeing the accuracy and reliability of the next dispensing.

By designing the reset member 4 as a torsion spring and using the first protrusion 211 and the second protrusion 212 on the pull rod assembly 2 to fix the torsion spring, the stability of the torsion spring during movement is ensured, preventing the torsion spring from falling off or shifting, thereby improving the reliability of the overall structure. The fact that at least a portion of the torsion spring is located at the first limiting groove 201 and the second limiting groove 202, respectively, ensures the accuracy of the pull rod assembly 2 during the reset process. The design of the first protrusion 211 and the second protrusion 212, as well as the first limiting groove 201 and the second limiting groove 202, makes the installation and disassembly of the torsion spring more convenient, facilitates daily maintenance and replacement, and reduces maintenance costs and time.

The mounting section 12 has an installation channel 104, which provides clear positioning and fixing points for the installation of the operating component and the sealing component 3, simplifies the assembly process, and improves installation efficiency. At the same time, the operating components are centrally arranged on the mounting section 12, making the operation more centralized and convenient, reducing the difficulty and time cost for operators.

This design effectively prevents material leakage from the connection between the sealing assembly 3 and the material cylinder 1, improving the reliability of the seal. The fact that one end of the connector 31 is connected to the operating component and the other end is located inside the installation channel 104 makes the entire sealing assembly 3 compact, facilitating installation and maintenance.
