Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of capsule extraction technology, and in particular to a compression and puncture device for a capsule extraction apparatus. Background Technology

[0002] Capsule extraction is a method of making coffee that involves grinding roasted coffee beans into powder and sealing them in aluminum capsules. Specifically, the extraction principle and process of capsule coffee involves placing the capsule into a specially designed machine and then starting the extraction. When water flows from the machine into the capsule, the increased permeability under high pressure causes the aroma, color, and flavor components to be rapidly released, gradually becoming stronger over time.

[0003] Existing capsule extraction devices still mainly rely on manual puncture. After placing the capsule inside the machine, the user manually presses it to puncture it before mixing it with water. However, during use, the angle at which the capsule is placed is often critical, otherwise it is difficult to press and puncture the capsule, which is not conducive to subsequent extraction. At the same time, the extraction device does not have a structure for storing the capsule, so the capsule is prone to being lost or contaminated. Utility Model Content
