Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of coffee grinder technology, and more particularly to a coffee grinder device for a coffee machine. Background Technology

[0002] Because coffee contains caffeine, which can stimulate the nervous, cardiac, and respiratory systems, moderate coffee consumption can refresh the mind and reduce fatigue. In addition, caffeine has a diuretic effect, which can promote the excretion of excess sodium ions from the kidneys and blood, and has certain benefits for the cardiovascular system. Therefore, coffee has become a popular daily necessity. However, coffee powder products suffer from flavor loss. The higher the quality of single-origin coffee beans, the more the aroma will be lost within three days after grinding. Therefore, coffee grinders, also known as coffee grinders, have been introduced to the market.

[0003] Traditional coffee machines typically come with a fixed-height cup holder for the grinding mechanism. This design is not suitable for coffee cups of different heights and may result in coffee grounds not falling accurately into the cup. In addition, as the coffee grounds accumulate over time, impurities and grease can accumulate in the bean tray. Since the bean tray of traditional grinding machines is often a fixed design, it makes cleaning and maintenance quite inconvenient.

[0004] Therefore, those skilled in the art have provided a coffee grinding device for a coffee machine to solve the problems mentioned in the background art. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this utility model is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by proposing a coffee grinder for a coffee machine. Through the design of a servo motor, threaded rod, connecting rod, and sliding block, the height of the cup holder is flexibly adjustable to accommodate coffee cups of different sizes, ensuring accurate coffee powder distribution, reducing operational errors, and improving brewing precision. It is also equipped with an anti-slip pad to stabilize the coffee cup and prevent slippage or tipping during grinding. Furthermore, the snap-fit ​​components and their corresponding sliding and snap-fit ​​grooves make the installation and removal of the bean holder convenient, enhancing the maintainability of the equipment.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution:

[0007] A coffee grinder includes a grinder, a bean holder, and multiple snap-fit ​​components. The grinder has two first mounting slots on its lower front end. A servo motor is fixedly connected to the inner bottom surface of one of the first mounting slots. A threaded rod is installed inside the other first mounting slot. The upper end of the threaded rod is rotatably connected to the inner top surface of the first mounting slot. The output end of the servo motor is fixedly connected to the middle of the lower end of the threaded rod. A connecting rod is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the other first mounting slot. Sliding blocks are fitted onto the outer walls of both the connecting rod and the threaded rod. The outer wall of the threaded rod on one side is threadedly connected to the inner wall of the sliding block, while the outer wall of the connecting rod on the other side slides against the inner wall of the sliding block. A cup holder is tightly fitted to the upper surface of the lower part of the grinder. The front ends of the sliding blocks are fixedly connected to both sides of the outer wall of the rear end of the cup holder. An anti-slip pad is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the cup holder.

[0008] Through the above technical solution, the design of servo motor, threaded rod, connecting rod and sliding block makes the height of cup holder adjustable. This design allows users to adjust the height of the cup holder according to different sizes of coffee cups to meet the needs of various coffee cups. Precise height adjustment helps to ensure that coffee powder falls directly and accurately into the coffee cup, reducing operational errors and improving the accuracy of coffee making. In addition, the anti-slip pad design can ensure the stability of the coffee cup placed on the cup holder and prevent the coffee cup from sliding or tipping over during the grinding process.

[0009] Furthermore, a groove is formed in the middle of the upper surface of the coffee grinder, and a connecting groove is formed in the middle of the bottom surface of the groove. The outer wall of the lower end of the bean container is tightly fitted with the inner wall of the connecting groove. A mounting plate is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the lower end of the bean container. The outer wall of the mounting plate is tightly fitted with the inner wall of the groove. Two connecting blocks are fixedly connected to the middle of both sides of the outer wall of the mounting plate. The outer walls of adjacent ends of the connecting blocks are provided with snap-fit ​​grooves. Fixing blocks are fixedly connected to both sides of the middle of the upper surface of the coffee grinder. The side of the fixing block near the center of the mounting plate is tightly fitted with both sides of the inner wall of the groove. The front and rear ends of the side of the upper surface of the fixing block near the center of the mounting plate are provided with rectangular grooves. The middle of the upper surface of the fixing block... Each component has two second mounting slots. A sliding groove is formed on the inner wall of each second mounting slot on the side furthest from the center of the mounting plate. The sliding groove on the side furthest from the center of the mounting plate is connected to the interior of the rectangular slot. The lower end of each snap-fit ​​component is located inside the second mounting slot. The outer wall of the lower end of each snap-fit ​​component on the side furthest from the center of the fixing block is slidably fitted against the inner wall of the sliding groove. Two return springs are fixedly connected to the lower end of each snap-fit ​​component on the side closest to the center of the fixing block. The return springs on the side closest to the center of the fixing block are fixedly connected to the inner wall of the second mounting slot. The outer wall of each connecting block is tightly fitted against the inner wall of the rectangular slot. The outer wall of the lower end of each snap-fit ​​component on the side furthest from the center of the fixing block engages with the inner wall of the snap-fit ​​groove.

[0010] Through the above technical solution, the design of the snap-fit ​​component, and the corresponding sliding groove and snap-fit ​​groove, the bean container can be easily installed on the grinder, and it is also easy to disassemble, which improves the maintainability of the equipment. In addition, the use of a return spring ensures that the snap-fit ​​component will not easily fall off when subjected to external force.

[0011] Furthermore, a dust cover is tightly fitted to the upper surface of the bean container, a silicone plug is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the dust cover, the outer wall of the silicone plug is tightly fitted to the inner wall of the upper end of the bean container, and a handle is fixedly connected to the middle of the upper surface of the dust cover.

[0012] The above technical solution uses a dust cover and silicone stopper to keep coffee beans fresh, and includes a handle for easy opening.

[0013] Furthermore, a grinder is connected through the lower end of the connecting groove. The grinder is located inside the coffee grinder. A powder outlet pipe is connected through the middle of the lower end of the grinder. The lower end of the powder outlet pipe passes through the coffee grinder to the upper end of the anti-slip pad.

[0014] The above technical solution uses a grinder to grind coffee beans and a powder outlet tube to provide a channel for the ground coffee powder.

[0015] Furthermore, a PLC control panel is fixedly connected to the upper part of the front end of the coffee grinder, and a control switch is provided in the middle of the lower end of the PLC control panel. The rear end of the control switch is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the upper part of the front end of the coffee grinder.

[0016] The above technical solution uses a PLC control panel and control switches to operate and control the grinding process.

[0017] Furthermore, a charging port is provided at the lower part of the other side of the rear end of the coffee grinder;

[0018] The above technical solution allows the coffee machine to be charged via a charging port.

[0019] Furthermore, an anti-slip base is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the coffee grinder;
