Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of beverage preparation equipment technology, specifically to a powder hopper installation structure and a beverage mixing machine. Background Technology
[0002] Newborns need to be fed multiple times at night. For formula-fed newborns, the formula needs to be prepared multiple times at night. Manually preparing formula is time-consuming and affects sleep, so formula mixing machines were developed for preparing formula.
[0003] Patent document CN218552085U discloses a formula milk powder preparer capable of automatically preparing formula milk powder. The formula milk powder preparer includes: a main body, a water tank, a shaking component, and a powder container assembly, which is disposed within a receiving slot. The powder container assembly includes an outer shell, an inner shell, and a driving component. The inner shell is located within the outer shell and its interior is divided into at least two chambers for holding formula milk powder. The lower part of the inner shell has a powder outlet corresponding to and communicating with the at least two chambers, and a sealing component is provided at the powder outlet. The bottom of the outer shell has an outlet directly facing the bottle neck. The driving component is located within the receiving slot and passes through the outer shell, connecting to the inner shell. When the driving component drives the inner shell to rotate within the outer shell, the sealing component is opened, and the powder outlet rotates to align with the outlet, allowing the formula milk powder in the chambers to fall into the bottle.
[0004] The problem with this type of formula dispenser is that the inner shell, outer shell, and drive unit together form the powder container assembly. When cleaning is needed, the entire powder container assembly must be removed, and then the inner shell, outer shell, and drive unit must be cleaned separately, dried, and then reassembled before being placed back into the receiving slot on the main unit, making cleaning inconvenient. Furthermore, multiple chambers for holding formula are integrated into the inner shell and cannot be separated, further increasing the difficulty of cleaning. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a powder hopper installation structure and a beverage mixing machine to address the above problems, thereby solving the problem of difficult cleaning of the milk powder hopper in the prior art.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model discloses a powder hopper installation structure. This structure includes a main body, a rotating disk driven by a power device mounted on the main body, and a plurality of powder hoppers arranged around the rotation center of the rotating disk. Each powder hopper has a powder discharge port at its bottom, and a bottom cover for opening and closing the discharge port is installed on each powder hopper. The rotating disk is detachably mounted on the main body and / or the powder hoppers are detachably mounted on the rotating disk. With this structure, the rotating disk can be removed from the main body and / or the powder hoppers can be removed from the rotating disk. Therefore, the entire rotating disk and powder hopper can be cleaned, or the powder hoppers can be cleaned individually. This solves the problem of difficult cleaning of the milk powder chamber in the prior art and helps maintain the cleanliness and hygiene of the beverage mixing machine.
[0007] Furthermore, the rotating disk has multiple mounting holes around its rotation center. The powder hopper is inserted into these mounting holes. The powder hopper has a first positioning part, and the rotating disk has a second positioning part. The first positioning part can engage with the second positioning part to position the powder hopper during installation. When installing the powder hopper, it can be inserted into the mounting hole first, and then the first and second positioning parts can be engaged to position the powder hopper, keeping it at the set installation position and angle. This allows for accurate control of the opening of the powder hopper's bottom cover when the rotating disk rotates to the set angle. To disassemble the powder hopper, the first and second positioning parts can be disengaged first, and then the powder hopper can be removed from the mounting hole. Therefore, with this structure, the powder hopper is easier to place and remove, and its installation position is more accurate.
[0008] Furthermore, the first positioning part includes several horizontal positioning protrusions on the outer peripheral surface of the powder hopper, and the second positioning part includes several horizontal positioning grooves located around the mounting hole and on the surface of the rotating disk. After the powder hopper is inserted into the mounting hole, the horizontal positioning protrusions can be screwed into or inserted into the horizontal positioning grooves. With the above structure, the horizontal positioning protrusions and the horizontal positioning grooves together form a snap-fit or snap-fit mechanism. The horizontal positioning protrusions are equivalent to male snaps, and the horizontal positioning grooves are equivalent to female snaps. The horizontal positioning protrusions and the horizontal positioning grooves rotate and snap into each other to achieve height positioning and position and angle positioning of the powder hopper on the horizontal plane. This not only ensures accurate positioning but also makes it convenient to pick up and put away the powder hopper.
[0009] Furthermore, the first positioning part includes several vertical positioning protrusions on the outer peripheral surface of the powder hopper, and the second positioning part includes several pairs of vertical positioning ribs, several pairs of vertical positioning posts, or several vertical positioning grooves located around the mounting hole and on the surface of the rotating disk. When the powder hopper is inserted into the mounting hole, the vertical positioning protrusions can be inserted into the gap between two pairs of vertical positioning ribs, the gap between two pairs of vertical positioning posts, or the vertical positioning grooves. With the above structure, the paired vertical positioning ribs, or the paired vertical positioning posts, or the vertical positioning grooves form a clamping and positioning structure for the vertical positioning protrusions, thereby achieving height positioning, horizontal position, and angular positioning of the powder hopper. The positioning of the powder hopper is accurate and reliable, and the removal and placement of the powder hopper are also relatively convenient.
[0010] Furthermore, the first positioning part includes several vertical positioning insertion blocks disposed on the outer peripheral surface of the powder hopper, and the second positioning part includes several positioning insertion slots or positioning insertion notches disposed at the edge of the mounting hole. When the powder hopper is inserted into the mounting hole, the vertical positioning insertion blocks can be inserted into the positioning insertion slots or positioning insertion notches. With the above structure, the positioning insertion slots or positioning insertion notches and the vertical positioning insertion blocks form an insertion positioning structure, realizing the installation and positioning of the powder hopper. This not only ensures accurate positioning but also makes it convenient to pick up and put away the powder hopper.
[0011] Furthermore, the first positioning part includes a positioning boss on the outer peripheral surface of the powder hopper, and the second positioning part is a mounting hole. The outer contour of the positioning boss and the inner contour of the mounting hole are both non-circular and they are compatible. With the above structure, the mounting hole forms a non-circular mating positioning structure with the positioning boss, which accurately positions the powder hopper and facilitates the loading and unloading of the powder hopper.
[0012] Furthermore, the first positioning part includes several vertical positioning insertion posts disposed on the outer peripheral surface of the powder hopper, and the second positioning part includes several positioning insertion holes disposed around the mounting hole and located on the rotating disk. When the powder hopper is inserted into the mounting hole, the insertion block can be inserted into the positioning insertion holes on the rotating disk. With the above structure, the vertical positioning insertion posts and positioning insertion holes together form an insertion-type positioning structure, ensuring accurate positioning of the powder hopper and convenient handling of the powder hopper.
[0013] Furthermore, the first positioning part includes an external positioning thread on the outer circumferential surface of the powder hopper, and the second positioning part includes an internal positioning thread on the inner wall of the mounting hole, wherein the external positioning thread can be screwed into the internal positioning thread. With the above structure, the external positioning thread and the internal positioning thread together form a screw-in positioning structure, ensuring accurate positioning of the powder hopper and convenient loading and unloading of the powder hopper.
[0014] Furthermore, a turntable carrier is rotatably mounted on the main body. The power unit includes a drive motor mounted on the main body, and the power output shaft of the drive motor is poweredly connected to the turntable carrier. The turntable is mounted on the turntable carrier, and the turntable has a first limiting part, while the turntable carrier has a second limiting part. The first limiting part can engage with the second limiting part to limit the installation of the powder hopper. With the above structure, the turntable carrier is used as an intermediate component to mount the turntable on the main body. The drive motor drives the turntable carrier to rotate, and the turntable rotates accordingly, thereby realizing the rotational drive of the turntable. The engagement of the first and second limiting parts achieves the installation limitation of the turntable, ensuring that the turntable rotates with the turntable carrier and that the position of the turntable is accurate after each cleaning and reinstallation.
[0015] Furthermore, the first limiting part includes a non-circular limiting hole located at the center of the rotating disk, and the second limiting part includes a non-circular limiting platform located on the upper surface of the rotating disk support. The non-circular limiting platform is adapted to the non-circular limiting hole and can be inserted into the non-circular limiting hole. With the above structure, the combination of the non-circular limiting hole and the non-circular limiting platform can prevent the rotating disk from rotating relative to the rotating disk support and can ensure the accurate installation angle of the rotating disk.
[0016] Furthermore, the non-circular limiting hole is polygonal in shape, or it is formed by cutting off one or both sides of a circle, or it is formed by setting several teeth on the circumference of a circle. With the above structure, the non-circular limiting hole has a simple shape, is easy to design and manufacture, has high reliability, and facilitates the installation of the rotating disk.
[0017] Furthermore, the first limiting part includes a plurality of limiting pins or a plurality of limiting holes disposed on the rotating disk, and the second limiting part includes a plurality of limiting holes or a plurality of limiting pins correspondingly disposed on the rotating disk support member, wherein the limiting pins can be inserted into the corresponding limiting holes. With the above structure, the installation of the rotating disk is limited by the cooperation of the limiting pins and limiting holes, ensuring accurate installation of the rotating disk and facilitating its installation.
[0018] Furthermore, the first limiting part includes a limiting threaded hole located at the center of the rotating disk, and the second limiting part includes a limiting threaded post located on the rotating disk support. The limiting threaded post and the limiting threaded hole are adapted to allow the rotating disk to be screwed onto the limiting threaded post of the rotating disk support. With the above structure, the installation of the rotating disk is limited by the threaded engagement between the limiting threaded hole and the limiting threaded post, ensuring accurate installation of the rotating disk and facilitating its installation.
[0019] Furthermore, the first limiting part includes a central connecting hole located at the center of the rotating disk, and the second limiting part includes a central connecting post located on the rotating disk support. The central connecting post can be inserted into the central connecting hole. The surface of the rotating disk has several horizontal limiting grooves surrounding the central connecting hole, and the outer circumferential surface of the central connecting post has several horizontal limiting protrusions. When the central connecting post is inserted into the central connecting hole, the horizontal limiting protrusions can be screwed into the horizontal limiting grooves. With the above structure, the rotating disk is limited in its installation position by the locking structure formed by the horizontal limiting protrusions and horizontal limiting grooves, ensuring accurate installation and convenient installation.
[0020] Furthermore, the main body is equipped with a switch or a position sensor, and the rotating disk or turntable support is provided with a triggering part that can activate the switch or cause the position sensor to sense when the rotating disk or turntable support rotates to a set position. With the above structure, when the rotating disk or turntable support rotates to the set position, the triggering part can activate the switch or cause the position sensor to sense, thereby switching the circuit on or off or outputting a signal, achieving accurate positioning of the rotating disk's rotation angle.
[0021] Furthermore, this utility model also discloses a beverage mixing machine, which includes the powder hopper installation structure described above.
[0022] In summary, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: When using this utility model, a single amount of milk powder or other powdered ingredients for preparing beverages can be added to the powder hopper, precisely controlling the amount of powder. The rotating disc drives the powder hopper to rotate and dispense powder at the set position. The rotating disc and / or the powder hopper adopt a detachable installation method, which solves the problem of difficult cleaning of the milk powder chamber in the prior art and helps to maintain the cleanliness and hygiene of the beverage preparation machine.
