[0023] This disclosure will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.
[0024] Please see Figures 1 to 10 The smart dining table of this utility model includes a tabletop 100, table legs 110 for support at the bottom of the tabletop 100, a turntable 150 rotatably mounted on the top of the table legs 110, a geared motor 160 that can drive the turntable 150 to rotate slowly and uniformly inside the table legs 110, and a detection component 200 for detecting the nutritional components of food on the top of the turntable 150.
[0025] The drive shaft at the output end of the geared motor 160 is a splined shaft. The bottom of the turntable 150 is provided with a hole that matches the splined shaft, so as to facilitate the removal of the turntable 150 for disassembly and assembly of the geared motor 160.
[0026] The detection assembly 200 includes a top plate 230 mounted on the top of the turntable 150, a spectral sensor 270 mounted on the bottom of the top plate 230, a plurality of odor sensors 280 distributed along its circumference on the outer side of the spectral sensor 270, and an outer frame 210 rotatably connected to the top of the turntable 150 on both sides of the top plate 230.
[0027] Base shafts 231 are fixed on both sides of the top plate 230. Multiple sets of positioning beads 232 are fixed along the circumferential direction of the curved outer wall of the base shafts 231. A base hole 260 is provided at the contact position between the extension strip 220 and the base shaft 231, and multiple sets of elastic elements 261 are fixed along the circumferential direction within the base hole 260. These elastic elements can constrain the positioning beads 232, thereby ensuring the stability of the top plate 230 after rotation. The aforementioned elastic elements 261 can be made of rubber.
[0028] A constraint ring groove 101 is provided on the top of the tabletop 100, and the constraint ring groove 101 is located on the outer side of the turntable 150; it restricts the liquid (overflowing beverages, wine, etc.) on the tabletop 100 and prevents it from dripping onto the ground from the edge of the tabletop 100.
[0029] The constraint ring groove 101 has a plate area 190 in the circumferential direction. Each plate area 190 has a placement groove 180 at the bottom. Multiple metabolic sensor monitoring modules 181 are installed in the placement groove 180. A ring cover 183 is provided in the placement groove 180 to cover the top of the metabolic sensor monitoring module 181. A vent hole 184 is provided in the ring cover 183 at the position corresponding to each metabolic sensor monitoring module 181.
[0030] A storage slot 151 is provided at the top of the turntable 150 where it contacts each set of detection components 200. A base 240, which is rotatably connected to the inner side of the two sets of outer frames 210, is fixed in the storage slot 151.
[0031] Each set of outer frame 210 has an extension strip 220 that slides inside. The top plate 230 is rotatably connected to both sides of the two sets of top plates 230. The outer side of the outer frame 210 is provided with a locking bolt 250 that abuts against the top plate 230.
[0032] After diners place their tableware on the placement slot 180, the detection component 200 corresponding to that slot 180 unfolds from the storage slot 151. The spectral sensor 270 and the odor sensor 280 collect the spectral and odor data of the food in real time and transmit it to the data processing center for analysis. This process obtains information on the nutritional components of the food, as well as assessments of its freshness and quality, providing diners with food information to help them make healthier and more reasonable dietary choices.
[0033] When diners lower their heads to eat in the plate area 190, the exhaled air can be monitored in real time by the metabolic sensor monitoring module 181 through the vent 184 (a breathable membrane can be added inside the vent 184 to prevent liquid from passing through the vent 184 and contacting the metabolic sensor monitoring module 181), and the metabolic status of diners can be analyzed to provide data support for healthy eating.
[0034] It should be noted that the aforementioned foods can include fruit platters, vegetable salads, dairy products, fresh meat, milk, and fruit juice, etc. A camera can be installed on the top panel 230 to capture images of the food, which are then transmitted to a data processing center via a communication device. The data processing center determines the type of food based on the images and obtains the standard nutritional information per unit weight. The freshness and ripeness of the food are then collected using the aforementioned odor and spectral sensors. The product of this information and the nutritional content represented by the standard nutritional information per unit weight is the nutritional value of the food per unit weight.
[0035] This smart dining table can include a controller, such as an MCU (Microcontroller Unit), PLC (Programmable Logic Controller), or DSP (Digital Signal Processor). A gravity sensor connected to the controller can also be installed on the placement slot 180. When a diner places their tableware on the slot 180, the gravity sensor transmits weight information to the controller. The controller then controls the geared motor 160 to drive the turntable 150 to rotate, causing the detection component 200 to face the tableware. The gravity sensor can also collect the weight difference before and after the meal, using this as the diner's intake. Multiplying this intake by the nutritional content per unit weight of the food yields the total nutritional intake. Finally, the data processing center compares this to a standard intake level and provides feedback on the diner's intake and metabolic status via software. This data processing center can be a cloud platform or a backend server, and it can communicate with the detection component 200 in various ways to receive the data collected by the component.
[0036] In addition, the design of the plate area 190 allows the tableware to be placed in an orderly manner, making it easy for diners to take it, and also making it easier to clean and keep the table tidy.
[0037] The smart dining table also features a chopstick rest slot 182, which is used to place chopsticks and other tableware, preventing chopsticks from directly contacting the tabletop and making it more hygienic.
[0038] Please refer to this carefully. Figures 2 to 5The upper surface of the desktop 100 is provided with a bearing 140 connected to the bottom of the turntable 150, and the output end of the geared motor 160 is connected to the center position of the bottom of the turntable 150 via a drive shaft.
[0039] The table leg 110 has a battery 170 that provides power to the geared motor 160, and the outer wall of the circular track 120 has a charging port 171 that can charge the battery 170.
[0040] A maintenance slot is provided at the center of the desktop 100, and the inner diameter of the maintenance slot is larger than the outer diameter of the geared motor 160. Multiple collection drawers 130 are provided at the bottom of the desktop 100 near the outer edge. The multiple collection drawers 130 are arranged in a circular array at the bottom of the desktop 100. Each collection drawer 130 has an outer frame 131 on both sides to constrain the sliding trajectory of the collection drawer 130.
[0041] A ring-shaped track frame 121 is fixed to the bottom of the desktop 100. A ring-shaped track 120 that can rotate around the axis of the desktop 100 is sleeved on the outer wall of the ring-shaped track frame 121. The outer frame 131 is fixed to the bottom of the ring-shaped track 120.
[0042] The output housing of the geared motor 160 drives the bearing 140 at the bottom of the turntable 150 to rotate slowly and uniformly. The bearing 140 reduces the friction during the rotation of the turntable 150, ensuring its stability. At the same time, the drive mechanism of the geared motor 160 avoids the effort required for diners to manually rotate the turntable 150, making its rotation easier and smoother.
[0043] In addition, the collection drawer 130 at the bottom of the tabletop 100 provides space for diners to place miscellaneous items or tableware. The collection drawer 130 is connected to the circular track 120 through the outer frame 131, which ensures the stability and smoothness of its sliding. The charging port 171 on the outer wall of the table leg 110 facilitates the charging of the battery 170 inside the table leg 110, ensuring the continuous power supply of the geared motor 160, and thus ensuring the normal use of the smart dining table.
[0044] It is worth mentioning that the maintenance slot in the center of the tabletop 100 provides convenience for the maintenance and repair of the geared motor 160. When the geared motor 160 malfunctions or needs maintenance, it can be easily removed through the maintenance slot for repair or replacement, which not only improves the maintenance efficiency of the smart dining table, but also extends its service life.
[0045] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model, and are not intended to limit it. Although the utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some or all of the technical features therein. Such modifications or substitutions do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model.
