Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of early warning device technology, and in particular to an automatic early warning device for tea waste residue. Background Technology

[0002] In today's fast-paced life, people have higher demands for the quality and convenience of beverages. Capsule tea has emerged as a result, and with its advantages of convenience, hygiene, and consistent taste, it has quickly won the favor of consumers. The brewing of capsule tea requires a special brewing machine, which is usually ingeniously designed and stylish, and can be well integrated into various home and office environments.

[0003] Most existing tea brewing machines have a pull-out box on the side to collect used tea capsule shells, wastewater, and residue. The capsule recycling function uses a counter to count the number of tea capsules in the waste bin, and the machine alerts the operator to clean the waste when the count reaches a preset value. However, in actual use, operators may be unaware of the remaining residue in the waste bin, or open it out of curiosity, but fail to clean it promptly. This causes the tea capsule counter to recalculate after the pull-out box is closed, resulting in the waste bin being full without timely reminders to empty it. Consequently, the machine may jam while continuing to dispense tea residue, affecting normal operation. Therefore, a system with automatic warnings regarding tea waste recycling status is being developed to solve these problems. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to address the problem in the prior art where brewing machines misjudge when the pull-out box is opened during machine operation due to counting issues, leading to the waste bin getting stuck and affecting the normal use of the machine. This invention proposes an automatic early warning device for tea waste residue.

[0005] The technical solution of this utility model is as follows: an automatic early warning device for tea waste, comprising: a brewing machine for brewing capsule tea, wherein a pull-out box is provided on one side of the brewing machine, and a material collection component for collecting capsules is provided inside the pull-out box; a set of guide columns fixedly disposed on the bottom surface inside the pull-out box, wherein the interior of the guide columns is hollow, and a first spring is disposed inside the guide columns, the lower end of the first spring being fixedly connected to the guide column, and a guide rod being fixedly connected to the upper end of the first spring, the guide rod being movably sleeved with the guide column; a linkage component for driving the material collection component is disposed on the upper end of the guide rod, the linkage component being located on the bottom surface of the material collection component; and an alarm component for early warning of capsule collection is fixedly disposed on one side of the inner wall of the pull-out box.

[0006] Optionally, the receiving assembly includes a receiving box disposed inside the pull-out box, the receiving box having a filter box disposed inside, and support legs fixedly disposed at the four corners of the bottom surface of the filter box.

[0007] Optionally, the linkage component includes a support base frame fixedly mounted on the upper end of the guide rod. A first connecting seat is fixedly mounted on the bottom surface of the support base frame. A connecting inner sleeve rod is rotatably mounted on the first connecting seat. A connecting outer sleeve rod is movably sleeved on one end of the connecting inner sleeve rod. A second connecting seat is rotatably mounted on the connecting outer sleeve rod. The lower end of the second connecting seat is fixedly connected to the inner bottom surface of the pull-out box.

[0008] Optionally, the alarm assembly includes a fixing block fixedly disposed on the inner wall of the pull-out box. The fixing block has an installation groove inside, and a push rod is movably sleeved inside the installation groove. The push rod is located above the connecting outer rod. A fixing collar is fixedly sleeved on the outer wall of the push rod, and a second spring is sleeved on the outer wall of the push rod. One end of the second spring is fixedly connected to the fixing block, and the other end of the second spring is fixedly connected to the fixing collar. A push piece is fixedly connected to the upper end of the installation groove, and a spring piece is fixedly connected to one side of the push piece.

[0011] Optionally, a pull handle is fixedly provided on one side of the receiving box.

[0012] In summary, this application includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects:

[0013] This invention achieves accurate early warning through an alarm component. As capsules and other waste are continuously collected into the collection box, the increasing number of capsules causes the collection box to become heavier, pressing down the bottom support legs. The guide rod associated with the support legs slides downward within the guide column. As the guide rod moves downward, the connecting outer rod gradually rotates upward under its influence. When the collection box is nearly full, the connecting outer rod pushes the push rod in the alarm component. The push rod overcomes the resistance of the second spring and moves upward, pushing the push plate and triggering the alarm. This timely reminds the user to clean the pull-out box without requiring manual inspection by the user, effectively avoiding the problem of the pull-out box getting stuck and affecting the normal use of the brewing machine, and significantly improving the user experience.

[0014] Furthermore, through the linkage component settings, the pull-out box will automatically open and the brewing machine will stop working when the warning is issued, making it convenient for users to quickly clean up waste residue and wastewater, and making it easy to use.

Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model based on the specific circumstances. Example

[0034] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, this utility model proposes an automatic early warning device for tea waste residue. A pull-out box 2 is installed on one side of the brewing machine 1. A material collection component 3 is installed inside the pull-out box 2 for collecting the tea capsules. A set of guide posts 4 are fixed to the bottom surface inside the pull-out box 2. The guide posts 4 are hollow and contain a first spring 5. One end of the first spring 5 is fixed to the guide post 4, and the other end is connected to a guide rod 6. The guide rod 6 can be movably sleeved within the guide post 4. A linkage component 7 is provided at the upper end of the guide rod 6 for stable guidance. An alarm component 8 is provided on one side of the inner wall of the pull-out box 2. The alarm component 8 can be triggered by the linkage component 7, thereby reminding the user to clean the tea.

[0035] like Figures 2 to 5 As shown, the receiving assembly 3 includes a receiving box 31 and a filter box 32. The receiving box 31 is located inside the pull-out box 2, and a pull-out handle 12 is fixedly installed on one side for easy removal and cleaning by the user. First magnetic blocks 10 are embedded in the four corners of the bottom surface of the receiving box 31. The filter box 32 is placed inside the receiving box 31, and its four corners are supported by support legs 33 to facilitate the filtration of water stains in the waste residue, thereby achieving separate collection of water stains and tea waste residue. Second magnetic blocks 11 are embedded in the four corners of the upper surface of the supporting base frame 71, which cooperate with the first magnetic blocks 10 to ensure that the receiving box 31 is installed accurately and stably, facilitating disassembly and cleaning of the internal tea waste residue.

[0036] like Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the linkage assembly 7 consists of a supporting base frame 71, a first connecting seat 72, a connecting inner sleeve rod 73, a connecting outer sleeve rod 74, and a second connecting seat 75. The supporting base frame 71 is fixed to the upper end of the guide rod 6, and its bottom surface is fixed to the first connecting seat 72. The connecting inner sleeve rod 73 is rotatably connected to the first connecting seat 72, and one end of the connecting inner sleeve rod 73 is movably sleeved inside the connecting outer sleeve rod 74. The connecting outer sleeve rod 74 is fixed to the inner bottom surface of the pull-out box 2 through the second connecting seat 75. When the weight of the receiving box 31 changes, causing the guide rod 6 to move up and down, the linkage assembly 7 can convert the vertical movement into a triggering action of the alarm assembly 8.

[0037] like Figure 5 and Figure 7 As shown, the alarm assembly 8 mainly includes a fixing block 81, a mounting groove 82, a push rod 83, a fixing collar 84, a second spring 85, a push plate 86, a spring plate 87, a limit lock head 88, and an alarm 89. The fixing block 81 is fixed to the inner wall of the pull-out box 2, and the mounting groove 82 is opened inside. The push rod 83 is movably sleeved in the mounting groove 82, and the push rod 83 is located above the connecting outer sleeve rod 74. The fixing collar 84 is fixedly sleeved on the outer wall of the push rod 83, and the second spring 85 is sleeved on it. One end of the second spring 85 is connected to the fixing block 81, and the other end is connected to the fixing collar 84.

[0038] Furthermore, a push plate 86 is connected to the upper end of the mounting slot 82, a spring plate 87 is connected to one side of the push plate 86, and a limiting head 88 is connected to the upper end. A limiting seat is provided on the inner wall of the brewing machine 1 to cooperate with the limiting head 88, and the limiting head 88 can engage with the inner wall of the brewing machine 1 to limit the pull-out box 2. An alarm 89 is provided on one side of the spring plate 87. The alarm 89 is existing technology and will not be described in detail here. The alarm 89 is fixedly installed through the pull-out box 2. When the connecting outer rod 74 pushes the push rod 83 upward, the push plate 86 causes the spring plate 87 to contact the alarm 89, triggering the alarm.

[0039] In this embodiment, when the brewing machine 1 is running normally, the pull-out box 2 is in the initial position, the receiving box 31 and the filter box 32 in the receiving assembly 3 are placed inside the pull-out box 2, the guide rod 6 is in a relatively high position under the action of the first spring 5, the connecting outer sleeve rod 74 in the linkage assembly 7 is not in contact with the push rod 83 of the alarm assembly 8, the alarm 89 is in a non-triggered state, and the brewing machine 1 can brew tea normally.

[0040] When a user uses the brewing machine 1 to brew capsule tea, the brewing machine 1 throws the brewed capsules into the receiving box 31. As the number of capsules increases, the weight of the receiving box 31 gradually rises, and the support leg 33 at the bottom of the receiving box 31 presses down due to the increased weight. The support leg 33 is associated with the guide rod 6, causing the guide rod 6 to begin sliding downward within the guide post 4. At this time, the first spring 5 is compressed, causing the guide rod 6 to move downward and drive the upper support frame 71 to descend. The support frame 71 causes the inner connecting sleeve rod 73 to rotate through the first connecting seat 72. The rotating inner connecting sleeve rod 73 pushes the movable connecting outer connecting sleeve rod 74 to change its angle, and the connecting outer sleeve rod 74 gradually rotates upward.

[0041] When the receiving box 31 is nearly full, the upward rotating connecting outer sleeve rod 74 pushes the push rod 83 in the alarm assembly 8. The push rod 83 overcomes the resistance of the second spring 85 and moves upward, pushing the push plate 86. The push plate 86 drives the spring 87 to move away from one side of the alarm 89, thereby triggering the alarm 89. The alarm 89 emits an alarm sound or flashes a reminder. Alternatively, it can send a reminder signal to the user / equipment manager in a timely manner through other signal sensing methods to remind the user to clean the pull-out box 2.

[0042] Simultaneously with triggering the alarm, the pusher 86 moves the limit stop 88 vertically upwards, causing it to disengage from the limit seat inside the brewing machine 1. This automatically opens the pull-out box 2 and stops the brewing machine 1. The user can then fully pull out the pull-out box 2 using the pull groove 9 or the pull handle 12 to clean the receiving box 31. After cleaning, the pull-out box 2 is pushed back to its original position, and the first spring 5 pushes the guide rod 6 to reset, restoring the device to its initial state for continued normal use.

[0043] The above specific embodiments are merely optional embodiments of this utility model. Based on the technical solution of this utility model and the relevant teachings of the above embodiments, those skilled in the art can make various alternative improvements and combinations to the above specific embodiments.
