[0023] Example

[0024] A mixing device for tea beverage ingredients, such as Figures 1-5 As shown, the mixing tank 1 includes a mixing assembly, which includes a first mixing mechanism and a second mixing mechanism. Support legs 2 are bolted to the left and right sides of the mixing tank 1. An electric valve 3 is installed at the bottom front of the mixing tank 1, and a water outlet pipe 4 is installed on the electric valve 3. The mixing assembly is also equipped with a lifting mechanism for lifting the first mixing mechanism. The first mixing mechanism includes a cover plate 14. A through hole is provided at the top of the mixing tank 1. A sealing strip is provided on the cover plate 14 for sealing connection with the through hole of the mixing tank 1. A second servo motor 16 is installed in the middle of the top of the cover plate 14. The output end of the second servo motor 16 passes through the cover plate 14. Several mixing blades 17 are installed at the output end of the second servo motor 16 through rods.

[0025] The ingredients required for tea beverages are mixed together by using a stirring component. Tea water and syrup are thoroughly mixed together. The mixture is stirred in two parts, upper and lower, by setting a first stirring mechanism and a second stirring mechanism to improve the stirring efficiency. The first stirring mechanism can be raised by using a lifting mechanism to facilitate cleaning of the inside of the mixing tank 1.

[0026] The first stirring mechanism also includes a filter cylinder 18, which is detachably installed on the bottom of the cover plate 14 by bolts. The filter cylinder 18 is provided with several filter holes, the size of which can be adjusted according to actual needs. By setting up the filter cylinder 18, unfiltered tea leaves mixed in with the raw materials can be prevented from entering the mixing tank 1. The filter cylinder 18 can be easily raised using a lifting mechanism for cleaning and replacement.

[0027] This device is further configured such as Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 4 As shown, the second stirring mechanism includes a servo motor 5, which is installed at the center of the bottom of the mixing tank 1. The output end of the servo motor 5 passes through the mixing tank 1 and is fitted with a stirring shaft 19. Stirring blades 20 are arranged circumferentially on the side of the stirring shaft 19. By using the servo motor 5 to drive the stirring shaft 19 to rotate, the stirring blades 20 are driven to stir the beverage in the mixing tank 1, thereby accelerating the mixing process.

[0028] This device is further configured such as Figures 2-4 As shown, the lifting mechanism includes a slide rail 9, which is located at the rear end of the mixing tank 1. A screw 11 is rotatably installed inside the slide rail 9.

[0031] The top of the cover plate 14 is provided with a connection port 15, which is connected to the storage tank 6 via a flexible hose 8. The flexible hose 8 has several branch pipes, which are connected to the electric pump 7. By using the electric pump 7 to pump the raw materials stored in the storage tank 6 into the mixing tank 1, precise and automated operation can be achieved.

[0032] Working principle: The raw materials are poured into the various compartments of the storage tank 6, and then the electric pump 7 pumps the raw materials into the mixing tank 1 according to the formula. Then, the first stirring mechanism and the second stirring mechanism are used to mix the raw materials. The working process of the first stirring mechanism is to use the servo motor 16 to drive the stirring blade 17 to rotate and mix the upper layer of raw materials. The working process of the second stirring mechanism is to use the servo motor 5 to drive the stirring blade 20 to rotate and mix the lower layer of raw materials. After the mixing is completed, the raw materials are discharged through the electric valve 3. Then, the screw 11 is driven by the stepper motor 10 to rotate, thereby lifting the cover plate 14, removing and replacing the filter cylinder 18, and cleaning the tea residue in the filter cylinder 18.
