Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of coffee machine technology, specifically to a coffee machine casing that facilitates the collection of distilled water. Background Technology

[0002] Nowadays, various coffee machines are indispensable household appliances. Many coffee machines usually use steam to make coffee. The use of steam will inevitably produce distilled water that accumulates on the lid of the coffee machine. When the coffee machine is opened to add coffee ingredients, the distilled water inside the lid will flow out of the coffee machine or onto other parts of the coffee machine, causing great inconvenience to normal coffee making. It can easily cause water to accumulate on the countertop where the coffee machine is placed, and may even cause short circuits or electric shock to the user if water enters the circuit.

[0003] To address the aforementioned technical problems, Chinese Patent No. CN208658869U discloses a coffee machine housing with a distilled water collection box. The housing includes a coffee machine body, a housing cover hinged to the top of the coffee machine body, a distilled water guiding device at the hinge between the housing cover and the coffee machine body that can collect and guide the distilled water flowing out of the housing cover when it is opened, a distilled water guiding platform inside the housing cover, and a distilled water tank for storing distilled water at the bottom of the distilled water guiding device.

[0004] While the aforementioned existing technical solutions have solved the problem of distilled water accumulating on the machine cover flowing out of the coffee machine body or into other parts when the machine cover is opened, some coffee drips down when people take coffee from the machine. The dripping coffee splashes onto the raised surface, and the coffee grounds and coffee liquid provide a good breeding ground for bacteria and mold. If not cleaned for a long time, bacteria may multiply in large quantities, contaminating the coffee machine and even endangering human health. The residual coffee liquid will produce an unpleasant odor after it deteriorates, requiring staff to clean the stains on the raised surface with a cloth and brush in a timely manner. The cleaning process is tedious and time-consuming, and its practicality is somewhat lacking. Summary of the Invention

[0005] (1) Technical problems to be solved

[0006] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, the purpose of this invention is to provide a coffee machine casing that facilitates the collection of distilled water. This device aims to solve the problem that, in existing technologies, when people collect coffee from the machine, some coffee drips, splashing onto the raised surfaces. Coffee grounds and liquid provide a favorable environment for the growth of bacteria and mold. If not cleaned regularly, this can lead to the proliferation of bacteria, contaminating the coffee machine and even endangering human health. Furthermore, the residual coffee liquid deteriorates and produces an unpleasant odor, requiring staff to promptly clean the stains on the raised surfaces with cloths and brushes. This cleaning process is cumbersome and time-consuming, resulting in insufficient practicality.

Further, when the sponge brush 4 is assembled, the connecting seat 10 and the adjusting seat 13 can be fitted together, allowing the locking block 16 to enter the inside of the slot. After the locking block 16 contacts the pressing plate 17, the inclined surfaces of the two abut against each other, forcing the pressing plate 17 to retract and press the two sets of first springs 18 to retract. After the locking block 16 is completely pushed into the inside of the slot, the two sets of first springs 18 can drive the pressing plate 17 to pop out, so that its protruding end abuts against the protruding end of the locking block 16, locking the position of the connecting seat 10 and the sponge brush 4.

[0031] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the opposite ends of the extrusion plate 17 and the locking block 16 are provided with mutually fitting inclined surfaces. A movable rod 19 is installed on one side of the extrusion plate 17 between the two sets of first springs 18. The movable rod 19 is slidably connected to the adjusting seat 13. An operating groove is provided at the end of the outer wall of the connecting seat 10 away from the connecting frame 5. A pull ring 20 is rotatably connected to the end of the movable rod 19 extending into the operating groove. Furthermore, after the sponge brush 4 has been brushing for a period of time, when a lot of dirt adheres to its surface, the pull ring 20 can be engaged to drive the movable rod 19 to move, and the extrusion plate 17 will be moved back again. After the protruding end of the extrusion plate 17 is away from the protruding end of the locking block 16, the connecting seat 10 and the sponge brush 4 can be removed together for cleaning or maintenance.

[0032] When using the coffee machine housing of this solution, which facilitates the collection of distilled water, the locking buckle can be released to remove the sealing cover. The required water source can be pre-filled into the water tank 6 via the inlet pipe 21. Then, the suction pump 8 is activated to draw in a portion of the water through the suction pipe. This water flows through the branch pipe and corrugated pipe 9 to the inside of the extension hole, then along the extension hole into the flow channel 7. Finally, it drips through the drip nozzle 15 onto the surface of the sponge brush 4, wetting it and making it easier to absorb and clean impurities from the grid 3. Next, the drive motor 14 is activated to rotate the threaded rod 12, causing the adjusting seat 13 to slide inside the adjusting groove. The drive motor 14 can rotate forward or backward to adjust the direction of movement of the adjusting seat 13, completing the reciprocating scraping operation. Overflowing water can fall along the grid 3 into the inner side of the groove, cleaning the inner wall of the groove as it slides down. Then, the sponge brush 4 is discharged to the outside through the discharge pipe. When assembling, the connecting seat 10 and the adjusting seat 13 can be attached to each other, allowing the locking block 16 to enter the inner side of the slot. After the locking block 16 contacts the pressing plate 17, the inclined surfaces of the two forces the pressing plate 17 to retract and compress the two sets of first springs 18 to retract. After the locking block 16 is fully pushed into the inner side of the slot, the two sets of first springs 18 can drive the pressing plate 17 to pop out, so that its protruding end abuts against the protruding end of the locking block 16, locking the position of the connecting seat 10 and the sponge brush 4. After the sponge brush 4 has been brushing for a period of time, when a lot of dirt adheres to its surface, the pull ring 20 can be fastened to drive the movable rod 19 to move, and the pressing plate 17 will be moved back again. After the protruding end of the pressing plate 17 is far away from the protruding end of the locking block 16, the connecting seat 10 and the sponge brush 4 can be removed together for cleaning or maintenance.

[0033] The control method of this utility model is through a controller. The control circuit of the controller can be implemented by simple programming by those skilled in the art. The power supply is also common knowledge in the field. Since this utility model is used to protect mechanical devices, the control method and circuit connection will not be explained in detail.

[0034] The above embodiments are preferred implementations of this utility model. In addition, this utility model can also be implemented in other ways. Any obvious substitutions without departing from the concept of this technical solution are within the protection scope of this utility model.
