Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of tea preparation technology, specifically to an automatic tea brewing device. Background Technology

[0002] With the improvement of people's living standards and the pursuit of fashionable beverages, the popularity of various tea drinks continues to rise, and milk tea shops can be seen everywhere. The operation of these milk tea shops relies heavily on a stable supply of high-quality tea. In the traditional tea-making process, the preparation of tea largely depends on manual labor, where staff put tea leaves and other ingredients into containers for brewing. However, this method is inefficient and cannot meet the demand for tea preparation during peak hours. Furthermore, during manual operation, staff's hands and other parts of their bodies are prone to direct contact with the tea ingredients, thus affecting the hygiene and quality of the tea drinks.

[0003] While some automatic tea brewing devices have emerged in the current technological field, most of these devices are designed for brewing loose tea leaves or other tea ingredients. After brewing, the tea leaves are typically removed by tilting the tea container or opening the bottom. Although these tea brewing devices achieve a certain degree of automation, they still present some problems in practical applications. On the one hand, tilting the tea container or opening the bottom complicates its structure, increasing manufacturing costs and maintenance difficulties. On the other hand, this complex design hinders the simplification and optimization of the entire brewing device, making it difficult to meet the requirements of modern milk tea shops and other similar establishments for simple, efficient, and easy-to-maintain equipment.

[0004] To achieve modular and precise tea brewing, pre-packaged tea bags are now widely used. However, directly applying existing automatic tea brewing devices to tea bag brewing still faces challenges such as the complex tea container structure resulting from the aforementioned waste removal methods. This not only limits the widespread application of automatic tea brewing devices in tea bag brewing but also hinders the tea beverage industry's development towards higher efficiency, hygiene, and convenience. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a new type of tea brewing device that is adaptable to tea bag brewing, has a simple structure, and facilitates waste removal to meet the growing demands of the tea beverage market.

[0005] In view of the shortcomings of the prior art described above, the technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to provide an automatic tea brewing device that can automatically brew tea from tea bags and automatically pour out the tea bags, and has a simple structure and is easy to operate.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides an automatic tea brewing device, including a tea jar, a tea bag filter basket, a filter basket movement mechanism, and a tea bag pressing component. The tea bag filter basket can hold tea bags and has filter mesh holes. The filter basket movement mechanism is connected to the tea bag filter basket and can drive the tea bag filter basket to move. The movement positions of the tea bag filter basket include a brewing position in the tea jar and a tilting position outside the tea jar. When the tea bag filter basket is in the tilting position, it can tilt out the tea bags. The tea bag pressing component can move to extend into the tea jar and press down the tea bags in the tea bag filter basket located in the brewing position.

[0007] Furthermore, the tea bag press moves with the movement of the tea bag filter basket, or the tea bag press is driven by a drive mechanism.

[0008] Furthermore, it also includes a lid, with the tea bag holder installed on the inner side of the lid facing the inside of the tea jar. When the lid covers the upper opening of the tea jar, the tea bag holder extends into the tea jar and presses down the tea bag in the tea bag filter basket located at the tea brewing position.

[0009] Furthermore, the cylinder cover is rotatably connected to the tea jar; when the tea bag filter basket is in the tilted position, the cylinder cover is in an inclined state, and the inner side of the cylinder cover or the tea bag pressing piece rests on the tea bag filter basket.

[0010] Furthermore, one side of the tea bag pressing component is rotatably connected to the inner side of the cylinder cover, and when the tea bag filter basket is in the tilted position, the tea bag pressing component rests on the tea bag filter basket.

[0011] Furthermore, a tilting guide plate is provided on one side of the tea bag filter basket. When the tea bag filter basket is in the tea brewing position, the tilting guide plate is located below the tea bag filter basket and is in an inclined state.

[0012] Furthermore, the pouring guide plate extends out of the inlet and outlet of the tea bag filter basket.

[0013] Furthermore, it also includes a cleaning water injection mechanism, which is installed in the teacup and is capable of injecting cleaning water into the teacup.

[0014] Furthermore, the cleaning water injection mechanism includes a cleaning water inlet frame installed on the upper end of the tea tank opening. The cleaning water inlet frame has a water channel inside and a cleaning water outlet located on the upper end of the tea tank opening on the inner side of the cleaning water inlet frame, which is connected to the water inlet channel.

[0015] Furthermore, the cleaning outlets located on opposite sides of the upper part of the tea jar are staggered.

[0016] Furthermore, it also includes a shower head installed in the teacup for injecting hot water.

[0017] Furthermore, it also includes a soup draining mechanism, which includes a soup draining pipe connected to the bottom of the tea jar and a soup draining control valve disposed on the soup draining pipe.

[0018] Furthermore, the mesh basket movement mechanism includes a swing arm, a rotating shaft, and a rotating drive assembly. The rotating shaft is rotatably mounted on the tea jar. The two ends of the swing arm are fixedly connected to the rotating shaft and the water filter mesh basket, respectively. The rotating drive assembly is connected to the rotating shaft.

[0019] As described above, the automatic tea brewing device of this utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0020] 1. By setting up a tea bag filter basket, a basket movement mechanism, and a tea bag pressing component, it is well-suited for brewing tea with tea bags. It can smoothly and stably allow the tea bags to soak in the tea jar and automatically discharge the tea bags after brewing. The entire device has a simple structure and is easy to operate. Compared with existing designs, it does not require flipping the tea jar itself or opening the bottom of the tea jar to discharge tea leaves. The entire device has a simple structure and simple operation and control method.

[0021] 2. By installing the tea bag press on the lid, the tea bag press is simultaneously pressed down on the tea bag when the lid is closed, and simultaneously moved away from the tea bag filter basket and tea jar when the lid is opened, thus further simplifying the structure and operation control process.

[0022] 3. By linking the movement of the cylinder head and tea bag pressing parts with the tea bag filter basket, the opening and closing actions are automatically completed when the tea bag filter basket rotates up and down. There is no need to set up a separate drive mechanism to realize the automatic opening and closing of the cylinder head, which further simplifies the structure and operation control process.

[0054] See Figures 1 to 6 This utility model provides an automatic tea brewing device, including a tea jar 1, a tea bag filter basket 3, a basket movement mechanism 4, and a tea bag pressing component 5. The tea bag filter basket 3 can hold tea bags; the basket movement mechanism 4 is connected to the tea bag filter basket 3 and can drive the tea bag filter basket 3 to move. The movement position of the tea bag filter basket 3 includes a tea brewing position in the tea jar 1 and a tilting position outside the tea jar 1. When the tea bag filter basket 3 is in the tilting position, it can pour out the tea bags; the tea bag pressing component 5 can move to extend into the tea jar 1 and press down the tea bags in the tea bag filter basket 3 in the tea brewing position.

[0055] The main working principle of the automatic tea brewing device involved in this utility model is as follows: The tea bag filter basket 3 is a mesh structure with an internal holding space and an inlet / outlet for putting in and taking out tea bags. In use, the tea bag can be placed into the tea bag filter basket 3 first, and then the filter basket 3 is moved into the tea container 1 and positioned in the brewing position by the filter basket movement mechanism 4. Alternatively, the tea bag filter basket 3 can be moved into the tea container 1 and positioned in the brewing position first, with the inlet / outlet of the filter basket 3 facing upwards, and then the tea bag is placed in. The tea bag can contain various tea ingredients such as tea leaves, chrysanthemum tea, and barley tea. After hot water is poured into the tea container 1, the hot water enters the tea bag filter basket 3 through the mesh and soaks the tea bag. The tea bag pressing component 5 extends into the tea container 1 and presses down the tea bag in the tea bag filter basket 3 in the brewing position, preventing it from floating on the surface. The tea bag presser 5 extends into the tea bag filter basket 3 through its inlet / outlet opening, pressing down the tea bag to prevent it from floating. The presser 5 can also block the inlet / outlet opening of the filter basket 3 at the brewing position. During brewing, the hot water should cover the inlet / outlet of the filter basket 3, allowing the presser 5 to hold the tea bag in place. This ensures optimal brewing results. The presser 5 enters the tea container 1 and presses down the tea bag; this can happen before, during, or after hot water is poured in. After brewing, the tea bag needs to be removed. The filter basket movement mechanism 4 drives the filter basket 3 to move away from the tea container 1 and tilt to its tipping position. Before or during the movement of the tea bag filter basket 3, the tea bag pressing component 5 can preferably move away from the inside of the tea container 1, without affecting the tea bag filter basket 3 entering and exiting the tea container 1 or the tea bag being poured out. When the tea bag filter basket 3 is in the pouring position, it is tilted with its inlet and outlet facing downwards, allowing the tea bag inside to be poured out smoothly. After the tea soup is drained, one tea brewing process is completed.

[0056] See Figures 1 to 6 The present invention will be further described below with reference to specific embodiments:

[0057] In this embodiment, see Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 5 As a preferred design, the movement of the tea bag press 5 can be either actively driven or passively driven. Specifically, a driving mechanism can be set to actively drive the movement of the tea bag press 5. After the tea bag filter basket 3 moves to the tea brewing position, the tea bag press 5 is driven by the driving mechanism and enters the tea bag filter basket 3. Alternatively, the tea bag press 5 can be linked with the tea bag filter basket 3. During the process of the tea bag filter basket 3 moving to the tea brewing position, the tea bag press 5 moves along with the tea bag filter basket 3 and enters the tea bag filter basket 3.

[0058] In this embodiment, see Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 5 As a preferred design, the automatic tea brewing device also includes a lid 2. During tea brewing, the lid 2 covers the upper opening of the tea container 1, thus achieving a prolonged steeping process and resulting in better tea brewing quality. A tea bag holder 5 is installed on the inner side of the lid 2 facing the inside of the tea container 1. It moves with the lid 2. When the lid 2 covers the upper opening of the tea container 1, the tea bag holder 5 extends into the tea container 1 and is inserted into the tea bag filter basket 3 located at the brewing position. After the lid 2 leaves the upper opening of the tea container 1, it causes the tea bag holder 5 to leave the interior of the tea container 1. With this configuration, the movement of the lid 2 is sufficient to move the tea bag holder 5, simplifying the mechanism and operation process.

[0059] In this embodiment, see Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 5 As a preferred design, the lid 2 adopts a passive driving method that moves with the tea bag filter basket 3. The lid 2 is rotatably connected to the tea jar 1. When it flips upward, it can open the upper opening of the tea jar 1; when it flips downward, it can cover the upper opening of the tea jar 1. When the tea bag filter basket 3 is in the tilted position, the lid 2 is in an inclined state, and the tea bag pressing component 5 rests against the tea bag filter basket 3. (See [reference]) Figure 3 As shown, the tea bag filter basket 3, tea bag holder 5, and lid 2 are all at appropriate tilt angles. As the tea bag filter basket 3 tilts downwards into the tea jar 1, the lid 2 and the tea bag holder 5 tilt downwards under gravity. When the tea bag filter basket 3 is in the brewing position, the lid 2 covers the upper opening of the tea jar 1, and the tea bag holder 5 enters the tea bag filter basket 3 through the inlet / outlet. After brewing, the tea bag filter basket 3 tilts upwards, pushing the tea bag holder 5 and lid 2 upwards together, until the tea bag filter basket 3 reaches the tilting position and stops. Furthermore, the contact surface between the tea bag press 5 and the tea bag filter basket 3 during rotation is smoothly transitioned, and can be set as an arc-shaped surface, or a composite shape combining an arc-shaped surface and a flat surface. Similarly, the outer surface of the part of the tea bag filter basket 3 that contacts the tea bag press 5 during rotation is also smoothly transitioned, preferably set as an arc-shaped surface, or a composite shape combining an arc-shaped surface and a flat surface, thereby reducing the friction between the tea bag filter basket 3 and the tea bag press 5. Using the above method, the movement of the cylinder head 2 and the tea bag press 5 no longer requires an additional drive mechanism to complete the automatic movement; only the movement of the tea bag filter basket 3 needs to be driven, thus simplifying the structure and operation control process.

[0060] In this embodiment, see Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 5Furthermore, one side of the tea bag pressing component 5 is rotatably connected to the inner side of the lid 2. When the tea bag filter basket 3 is in the tilted position, the lid 2 is tilted, and the tea bag pressing component 5 rests against the tea bag filter basket 3. As the tea bag filter basket 3 begins to rotate downwards into the tea jar 1, the tea bag pressing component 5 remains against the tea bag filter basket 3, while the inner side of the lid 2 also abuts against the tea bag pressing component 5, causing both to flip downwards synchronously. When the lid 2 covers the upper opening of the tea jar 1, it stops moving, while the tea bag pressing component 5 can rotate downwards a certain distance relative to the lid 2 under the action of gravity, thus better pressing the tea bag down. During the upward flipping process of the tea bag filter basket 3, it pushes the tea bag pressing component 5 upwards, causing the tea bag pressing component 5 and the lid 2 to rotate upwards. In other embodiments, the tea bag pressing component 5 can also be fixedly installed on the cylinder cover 2 and always rotate synchronously. Correspondingly, the inner side of the cylinder cover 2 can also abut against the tea bag filter basket 3 to achieve the effect of the tea bag filter basket 3 driving the cylinder cover 2 and the tea bag pressing component 5 to move.

[0061] In other embodiments, the cylinder cover 2 can also be driven actively. A drive mechanism is connected to the cylinder cover 2, which can be a motor and reducer assembly 405, etc., connected to the cylinder cover 2 through an intermediate transmission structure, thereby driving the cylinder cover 2 to rotate and move the tea bag pressing component 5, automatically performing the closing and opening actions. In this way, before the tea bag filter basket 3 rotates to pour out the tea bag, the cylinder cover 2 first flips to open; when brewing tea, after the tea bag filter basket 3 enters the tea jar 1, the cylinder cover 2 flips to close.

[0062] In this embodiment, see Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 5 Furthermore, one side of the tea bag filter basket 3 is provided with a tilting guide plate 301, and the remaining sides are a mesh structure, together forming a basket structure. When the tea bag filter basket 3 is in the tea brewing position, the tilting guide plate 301 is located below the tea bag filter basket 3 and is tilted. At this time, the tea bag in the tea bag filter basket 3 will enter onto the tilting guide plate 301 and slide down along it, thus making it easier to pour out the tea bag. Furthermore, one side of the bottom end of the tilting guide plate 301 extends to the very bottom of the tea bag filter basket 3, and the bottom part is provided with multiple holes. The top end of the tilting guide plate 301 extends out of the inlet and outlet of the tea bag filter basket 3, thus better guiding the tea bag to slide out.

[0063] In this embodiment, see Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 5As a preferred design, the tea bag press 5 is a thin plate structure, its width being slightly smaller than the width of the inlet and outlet of the tea bag filter basket 3, and also slightly smaller than the width of the inner cavity of the tea bag filter basket 3. This allows it to more reliably press down the tea bag and prevent it from floating out of the gap in the width direction. Furthermore, a water permeable hole is provided in the middle of the tea bag press 5 to reduce the resistance when the tea bag press 5 moves up and down in hot water.

[0064] In this embodiment, see Figure 1 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 As a preferred design, the automatic tea brewing device also includes a cleaning water injection mechanism, which is installed on the tea tank 1 and can inject cleaning water into the tea tank 1. The cleaning water injection mechanism includes a cleaning water inlet frame 6 installed on the upper opening of the tea tank 1. The cleaning water inlet frame 6 has a water channel inside, and a cleaning water outlet 602 connected to the water inlet channel and located on the upper opening of the tea tank 1 is provided on the inner side of the cleaning water inlet frame 6. A cleaning water inlet pipe 601 connected to the water channel is also connected to the outer side of the cleaning water inlet frame 6. There are multiple cleaning water outlets 602, which are arranged at different positions along the edge of the upper opening of the tea tank 1. Specifically, in this embodiment, the upper opening of the tea tank 1 is square, and the cleaning water inlet frame 6 can be a U-shaped frame or a quadrilateral frame. There are frame beams 604 on three or four sides of the upper opening of the tea tank 1, and multiple cleaning water outlets 602 are provided on each frame beam 604. In use, the cleaning inlet pipe 601 is connected to the cleaning water supply mechanism. Cleaning water enters the water channel within the cleaning inlet frame 6 through the cleaning inlet pipe 601, then flows out from each cleaning outlet 602 and into the tea jar 1, effectively cleaning the inside of the tea jar 1, as well as the tea bag filter basket 3 and tea bag pressing piece 5 located within it. Furthermore, the cleaning outlets 602 on opposite sides of the upper opening of the tea jar 1 are staggered, meaning one cleaning outlet 602 is located between two cleaning outlets 602 on the opposite side. This staggered arrangement prevents the cleaning outlets 602 on both sides from flowing against each other and also achieves staggered rinsing. In other embodiments, the cleaning water injection mechanism can also use a suitable existing mechanism capable of injecting cleaning water into the tea jar 1.

[0065] In this embodiment, see Figure 1 , Figure 5 and Figure 6Furthermore, the upper end of the cleaning water inlet frame 6 is provided with two opposing guide side plates 603. The two guide side plates 603 are respectively set on the left and right sides of the upper opening of the tea tank 1. The width of the space between the two guide side plates 603 gradually decreases from top to bottom, forming a trapezoidal converging space that is larger at the top and smaller at the bottom. The tea bag filter basket 3 and the tank lid 2 are rotatably connected to the front and rear sides of the upper opening of the tea tank 1. The upper width of the trapezoidal converging space between the two guide side plates 603 is larger than the width of the tea bag filter basket 3 and the tank lid 2 in the left and right direction. When the tea bag filter basket 3 and the tank lid 2 rotate into the tea tank 1, they will first enter the space between the two guide side plates 603. The two guide side plates 603 can play a guiding role to avoid the tea bag filter basket 3 and the tank lid 2 from being offset in the left and right direction and causing collision problems.

[0066] In this embodiment, see Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 5 As a preferred design, the tea broth draining mechanism 7 is also included. The draining mechanism 7 includes a drain pipe 701 connected to the bottom of the tea jar 1 and a drain control valve 702 disposed on the drain pipe 701. By controlling the opening and closing of the drain control valve 702, the tea broth in the tea jar 1 can be automatically drained. In other embodiments, the draining mechanism 7 may also employ other suitable mechanisms.

[0067] In this embodiment, see Figure 1 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 As a preferred design, the basket movement mechanism 4 includes a swing arm 401, a rotating shaft 402, and a rotation drive assembly. The rotating shaft 402 is rotatably mounted on the tea jar 1 and is in a horizontal position. The two ends of the swing arm 401 are fixedly connected to the rotating shaft 402 and the tea bag filter basket 3, respectively. The rotation drive assembly is connected to the rotating shaft 402. The rotation drive assembly includes a driven gear 403 fixed coaxially with the rotating shaft 402, a driving gear 404 meshing with the driven gear 403, and a motor and reducer assembly 405 connected to the driving gear 404. The motor and reducer assembly 405 drives the driving gear 404 and the driven gear 403 to rotate, which in turn drives the rotating shaft 402 and the swing arm 401 to rotate, thereby driving the basket movement mechanism 4 to rotate around the rotating shaft 402, allowing the basket movement mechanism 4 to enter the tea jar 1 more smoothly. In other embodiments, the mesh basket movement mechanism 4 can also adopt other existing suitable mechanisms, and the tea bag filter mesh basket 3 can also have other movement trajectories. In addition to the flipping action, it can also enter and exit the tea jar 1 by lifting and lowering, and then perform the flipping action outside the tea jar 1.

[0068] In this embodiment, see Figure 1 , Figure 4 and Figure 5As a preferred design, the tea container 1 is equipped with a hot water inlet pipe 101 for connection to a hot water supply device to automatically inject hot water into the tea container 1. A shower head 8 for hot water injection is installed in the tea container 1, connected to the hot water inlet pipe 101. The shower head 8 can disperse the injected hot water, spraying it evenly onto the tea bag without splashing. The hot tea container 1 is also equipped with various detectors, including temperature sensors and liquid level sensors, to monitor the status of the tea container 1 during the tea brewing and tea pouring processes, achieving intelligent monitoring.

[0069] In this embodiment, as a preferred design, a control mechanism is also included, specifically a programmable PLC controller. The control mechanism is connected to the basket movement mechanism 4 to control the automatic movement of the basket movement mechanism 4, which moves according to a set time and trajectory. The control mechanism is also communicatively connected to various detectors to receive detection signals.

[0070] As can be seen from the above, the automatic tea brewing device of this utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0071] 1. By setting up a tea bag filter basket 3, a basket movement mechanism 4, and a tea bag pressing component 5, it can be well applied to the tea bag brewing process. It can smoothly and stably allow the tea bag to soak in the tea container 1, and can automatically discharge the tea bag after brewing. The whole device has a simple structure and is easy to operate. Compared with the existing design, there is no need to flip the tea container 1 itself, nor is it necessary to open the bottom of the tea container 1 to discharge tea residue. The whole device has a simple structure and simple operation and control method.

[0072] 2. By installing the tea bag pressing component 5 on the lid 2, the tea bag pressing component 5 can press down the tea bag simultaneously when the lid is closed, and simultaneously move the tea bag pressing component 5 away from the tea bag filter basket 3 and the tea jar 1 when the lid is opened, thus further simplifying the structure and operation control process.

[0073] 3. By linking the movement of the cylinder head 2 and the tea bag pressing part 5 with the tea bag filter basket 3, the opening and closing actions are automatically completed when the tea bag filter basket 3 rotates up and down. There is no need to set up a separate drive mechanism to realize the automatic opening and closing of the cylinder head 2, which further simplifies the structure and operation control process.

[0074] In summary, this utility model effectively overcomes the various shortcomings of the prior art and has high industrial application value.

[0075] The above embodiments are merely illustrative of the principles and effects of this utility model and are not intended to limit the scope of this utility model. Any person skilled in the art can modify or alter the above embodiments without departing from the spirit and scope of this utility model. Therefore, all equivalent modifications or alterations made by those skilled in the art without departing from the spirit and technical concept disclosed in this utility model should still be covered by the claims of this utility model.
