Detailed Implementation

[0031] The technical solution of this utility model will now be clearly and completely described with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some, not all, of the embodiments of this utility model. The present utility model will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features in the embodiments of this utility model can be combined with each other.

[0032] It should be noted that the terms "first," "second," etc., in the specification, claims, and drawings of this utility model are used to distinguish similar objects and are not necessarily used to describe a specific order or sequence.

[0033] This utility model provides a beverage preparation device. The device is used to prepare beverages and can specifically include coffee machines, soy milk makers, juicers, etc., with grinding and brewing functions. It can also be capsule coffee machines, soy milk powder brewing machines, etc., that brew pre-prepared materials to prepare beverages. The beverage preparation device includes a brewing component 100, which is used to receive the materials to be brewed, such as ground coffee powder, bean powder, or pre-prepared coffee powder, soy milk powder, etc., and then injects hot water to brew and extract the materials, thereby preparing the beverage. Generally, the beverage preparation device can include a housing for housing the various functional components of the device, such as the grinding component and the brewing component 100.

[0034] Please see Figures 1 to 8 This utility model provides a first embodiment of a brewing assembly 100. The brewing assembly 100 includes a fixed group 10, a movable group 20, and a limiting mechanism 30. The fixed group 10 refers to the component group in the brewing assembly 100 that is basically fixed relative to the housing of the beverage preparation equipment. The fixed group 10 may include a bracket 11, which is used to support and install the brewing assembly 100, so that each component of the brewing assembly 100 is stably installed in the housing. The bracket 11 has a material discharge port 111. Generally speaking, the bracket 11 has two sides arranged opposite to each other. The material discharge port 111 passes through both sides of the bracket 11. One side of the bracket 11 may be provided with a grinding component, a feeding component, or other mechanism for providing materials. The other side of the bracket 11 may be provided with a brewing tank 21 for brewing and extracting materials to prepare beverages. The materials to be brewed can be fed into the brewing tank 21 through the material discharge port 111 for brewing.

[0035] The movable group 20 refers to a group of components that can move relative to the fixed group 10. The movable group 20 is movably mounted on the fixed group 10 and includes a brewing cylinder 21. During the movement of the movable group 20 relative to the fixed group 10, the brewing cylinder 21 has a first position relatively close to the discharge port 111 and a second position relatively far from the discharge port 111. In this embodiment, the movable group 20 is driven to move relative to the fixed group 10, causing the brewing cylinder 21 to move between the first and second positions. The first position refers to the position where the brewing cylinder 21 is relatively close to the discharge port 111 to receive the material fed from the discharge port 111, while the second position refers to the position where the brewing cylinder 21 is relatively far from the discharge port 111 to facilitate brewing and extracting the material. It can be understood that the first and second positions are relatively spaced apart and fixed. The specific structure of the movable group 20 is not limited; it is mainly designed according to the movement mode of the brewing cylinder 21 relative to the fixed group 10. The movement mode of the brewing cylinder 21 relative to the fixed group 10 can be various, including but not limited to translation, rotation, and tilting. The power source for driving the movable group 20 to move so that the brewing tank 21 can move between the first position and the second position can be electric or manual. In a preferred embodiment, a drive group 50 can also be provided on one side of the bracket 11. The drive group 50 is used to drive the movable group 20 to move relative to the fixed group 10, and it can include a drive motor, etc.

[0036] In one embodiment, please refer to Figure 3 and Figure 4 The material discharge port 111 extends vertically through the support 11. The brewing cylinder 21 is located below the support 11, and has a receiving port 211 on its upper side. When the brewing cylinder 21 is in the first position, the receiving port 211 is directly below the material discharge port 111. When the brewing cylinder 21 is in the second position, the receiving port 211 is at least partially offset from the material discharge port 111 in the vertical direction. Thus, when the brewing cylinder 21 is in the first position, the material above the material discharge port 111 can be fed into the brewing cylinder 21 under gravity. The structure is simple, requiring no additional material conveying mechanism, reducing costs and facilitating maintenance. Of course, in other optional embodiments, the relative positions of the material discharge port 111 and the brewing cylinder 21 can be adjusted as needed.

[0037] It should be noted that in this utility model, the description of directionality applies only to the beverage preparation equipment in its assembled and normal-use state, and not to its state during production, assembly, transportation, etc. The vertical direction is basically parallel to the direction of gravity, and the horizontal direction is approximately parallel to the horizontal plane.

[0038] Further, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2The brewing assembly 100 may also include a piston 40, and the drive assembly 50 may also include a drive motor that drives the piston 40. The piston 40 can be mounted on the bracket 11 in the up-down direction, and when the brewing cylinder 21 is in the second position, it can be retractably inserted into or pulled out of the inlet 211. The piston 40 can form a sealed space with the brewing cylinder 21, increasing the pressure when brewing materials, achieving effective extraction of materials, and enhancing the flavor of the brewed beverage.

[0039] A limiting mechanism 30 is disposed on the fixed group 10 and / or the movable group 20. The limiting mechanism 30 is used to limit the movable group 20 when the brewing cylinder 21 is in the first position and / or the second position. In this way, the limiting mechanism 30 can accurately limit the suspension position of the brewing cylinder 21, preventing the brewing cylinder 21 from moving beyond its travel range or shifting from the first position and / or the second position after prolonged use, ensuring the normal operation of the brewing assembly 100 and extending the service life of the beverage preparation equipment.

[0040] The limiting mechanism 30 can take many forms, as long as it can reliably limit the travel of the brewing cylinder 21. In a preferred embodiment, the limiting mechanism 30 includes a first limiting part 31 and a second limiting part 32 disposed on the fixed assembly 10, wherein the first limiting part 31 and the second limiting part 32 are spaced apart. The first limiting part 31 acts on the movable assembly 20 when the brewing cylinder 21 is in the first position, and the second limiting part 32 acts on the movable assembly 20 when the brewing cylinder 21 is in the second position.

[0041] In an optional embodiment, the limiting mechanism 30 may be provided on the bracket 11. For example, the first limiting part 31 and the second limiting part 32 are respectively protruding on the lower side of the bracket 11 and are used to abut, snap, stick, or magnetically attract the movable group 20 when the brewing cylinder 21 moves to the first position or the second position, thereby ensuring that the brewing cylinder 21 is stably and accurately suspended in the first position or the second position.

[0042] In another embodiment, the fixing assembly 10 further includes a scraper 13, which protrudes from one side of the support 11, preferably from the lower side of the support 11, and during its relative movement with the brewing cylinder 21, slides and contacts at least partially with the side of the brewing cylinder 21 facing the discharge port 111, thereby scraping off the slag outside the discharge port 211 of the brewing cylinder 21. The limiting mechanism 30 can also be provided on the scraper 13. For example, a first limiting part 31 and a second limiting part 32 can be fixedly provided on both sides of the scraper 13, so that when the brewing cylinder 21 moves to the first position or the second position, it abuts, engages, or adheres to the movable assembly 20, thereby ensuring that the brewing cylinder 21 is stably and accurately suspended in the first position or the second position.

[0043] In another alternative embodiment, please refer to Figures 1 to 5 In the figure, the brewing cylinder 21 is located in the first position. The fixed assembly 10 also includes a rotating mounting part 12 disposed on the bracket 11. The movable assembly 20 includes a rotating mating part 22 connected to the brewing cylinder 21. The rotating mating part 22 cooperates with the rotating mounting part 12 so that the brewing cylinder 21 is rotatably mounted on the bracket 11 relative to the rotating mounting part 12. The specific structures of the rotating mounting part 12 and the rotating mating part 22 can be varied, as long as they can enable the brewing cylinder 21 to rotate and move between the first position and the second position. For example, they can be a rotating shaft and a sleeve that cooperate with each other. The limiting mechanism 30 is disposed on the rotating mounting part 12 so that when the brewing cylinder 21 rotates to the first position or the second position, the first limiting part 31 correspondingly abuts, engages, adheres to, or magnetically attracts the movable assembly 20, thereby ensuring that the brewing cylinder 21 is stably and accurately suspended in the first position or the second position.

[0044] Preferably, a gap (not shown in the figure) is formed between the rotating mounting part 12 and the brewing cylinder 21. The first limiting part 31 and the second limiting part 32 are spaced apart in the circumferential direction of the rotating mounting part 12 and are respectively located on both sides of the gap in the circumferential direction. When the brewing cylinder 21 is in the first position, the first limiting part 31 engages with the gap from one side, and when the brewing cylinder 21 is in the second position, the second limiting part 32 engages with the gap from the other side. In this way, the engagement between the first limiting part 31 or the second limiting part 32 and the gap ensures that the brewing cylinder 21 is stably and accurately suspended in the first or second position. The limiting method is simple and reliable, and the clamping effect of the gap on the first limiting part 31 or the second limiting part 32 can also be used to prevent the brewing cylinder 21 from shaking during the feeding process or brewing process, thereby improving the stable suspension capability of the brewing cylinder 21.

[0045] In another embodiment, please continue to refer to Figures 5 to 8The rotating mounting part 12 is a rotating shaft protruding from one side of the bracket 11, and the rotating fitting part 22 is a sleeve fitted onto the rotating shaft. The brewing cylinder 21 is connected to the sleeve via a connecting member 23 located around the sleeve, allowing it to have a movable stroke for rotation around the rotating shaft. The first limiting part 31 and the second limiting part 32 are spaced apart in the circumferential direction of the rotating shaft. The connecting member 23 is movably disposed between the first limiting part 31 and the second limiting part 32, so as to abut against the first limiting part 31 when the brewing cylinder 21 is in the first position and against the second limiting part 32 when the brewing cylinder 21 is in the second position. In this embodiment, the first limiting part 31 and the second limiting part 32 achieve accurate positioning of the suspended position of the brewing cylinder 21 by abutting against the connecting member 23. The structure is simple, reliable, and easy to install.

[0046] Preferably, please refer to Figures 6 to 8 The limiting mechanism 30 includes a fixing ring 33 sleeved on the rotating shaft. A first limiting part 31 and a second limiting part 32 are disposed on the fixing ring 33. The fixing ring 33 has a notch 34 facing the brewing cylinder 21. The notch 34 defines a movable space for the connecting member 23 to rotate. The first limiting part 31 and the second limiting part 32 are distributed on both sides of the notch 34 in the circumferential direction and face the movable space respectively. Thus, by using the fixing ring 33 to fix the first limiting part 31 and the second limiting part 32, the structure is simple and can be modified from the existing brewing assembly 100 structure. Furthermore, the installation position can be adjusted by rotating the fixing ring 33, precisely adjusting the suspension position of the brewing cylinder 21, making installation and operation simple.

[0047] In an optional embodiment, the limiting mechanism 30 includes a first limiting part 31 and a second limiting part 32 (not shown in the figure) disposed on the movable group 20. The first limiting part 31 acts on the fixed group 10 when the brewing cylinder 21 is in the first position, and the second limiting part 32 acts on the fixed group 10 when the brewing cylinder 21 is in the second position. In this embodiment, the limiting mechanism 30 is disposed on the movable group 20 and is used to correspondingly abut, engage, adhere, or magnetically fix the fixed group 10 when the brewing cylinder 21 moves to the first or second position, thereby ensuring that the brewing cylinder 21 is stably and accurately suspended in the first or second position.

[0048] Based on the above embodiments, the first limiting part 31 and / or the second limiting part 32 are made of elastic material, such as rubber or silicone. This serves to limit the movement of the brewing cylinder 21 while also buffering and protecting the movable assembly 20, reducing noise during operation of the brewing component 100.

[0049] Please see Figures 9 to 11 The present invention also provides a second embodiment of the brewing component 100100.

[0050] As shown in the figure, the brewing assembly 100 includes a brewing cylinder 21, a powder feeding mechanism 80, and a limiting mechanism 30. In this embodiment, the brewing cylinder 21 is used to receive the powder fed by the powder feeding mechanism 80. Specifically, the powder feeding mechanism 80 may be a mechanism that includes a grinding device, prepares powder by grinding raw materials, and conveys the powder to the brewing cylinder 21. The powder feeding mechanism 80 may also be a mechanism that delivers the powder stored in the storage bin to the brewing cylinder 21 through a connected storage bin. Alternatively, it may be a powder transport mechanism used only for transporting finished powder added by the user. It is understood that in any of the above embodiments, the powder feeding mechanism 80 should have a discharge port from which the powder leaves the powder feeding mechanism 80 and is fed into the brewing cylinder 21 under the action of gravity or inertia.

[0051] The brewing cylinder 21 and the powder feeding mechanism 80 are movably arranged to have a first state in which the brewing cylinder 21 is relatively close to the discharge port of the powder feeding mechanism 80, and a second state in which the brewing cylinder 21 is relatively far away from the discharge port of the powder feeding mechanism 80. It can be understood that in the first state, the brewing cylinder 21 can receive the powder fed by the powder feeding mechanism 80, while in the second state, the brewing cylinder 21 can receive hot water to perform brewing and extraction operations on the powder.

[0052] One of the brewing cylinder 21 and the powder feeding mechanism 80 is fixed in position as a fixed module, while the other of the brewing cylinder 21 and the powder feeding mechanism 80 serves as a movable module and is movably arranged relative to the fixed module. A limiting mechanism 30 is disposed on the movement path of the movable module relative to the fixed module, so that the brewing cylinder 21 and the powder feeding mechanism 80 are limited in the first state and / or the second state. In this embodiment, the limiting mechanism 30 accurately limits the hovering position of the brewing cylinder 21 relative to the powder feeding mechanism 80, preventing them from overtraveling relative to each other or deviating from the designed hovering position after prolonged use. This ensures the normal operation of the brewing assembly 100 and extends the service life of the beverage preparation equipment.

[0053] The limiting mechanism 30 can have various specific structures. In a preferred embodiment, the limiting mechanism 30 includes a stop arm 60 disposed on the moving path and a flexible member 61 disposed on the stop arm 60. Optionally, the stop arm 60 is fixed relative to the fixed module, and the moving module abuts against the flexible member 61 in the first state or the second state.

[0054] In this embodiment, the flexible component 61 can be made of elastic materials such as rubber or silicone. This serves to limit the relative position between the brewing cylinder 21 and the powder feeding mechanism 80, while also buffering and protecting the moving module, thereby reducing the noise of the brewing assembly 100 during operation.

[0055] Preferably, in either the first or second state, the flexible member 61 is pressed between the stop arm 60 and the movable module. In this way, the stop wall effectively supports and fixes the flexible member 61.

[0056] The setting method of the limiting mechanism 30 is not limited; it can be fixed to the machine body or fixed by connecting to a fixing module.

[0057] Based on the above embodiments, it is preferable that the relative position between the brewing cylinder 21 and the powder feeding mechanism 80 is limited in both the first and second states. Therefore, preferably, two stop arms 60 are provided, each stop arm 60 is respectively provided with the flexible member 61, and the two stop arms 60 are located at both ends of the moving path of the moving module, with the limiting mechanism 30 limiting the moving range of the moving module. In this way, the brewing cylinder 21 can be precisely limited in both the powder receiving position and the brewing position.

[0058] It is understood that the movement method of the moving module is not limited. In optional embodiments, the moving module can rotate, move horizontally, move vertically up and down, or move obliquely. In this embodiment, the moving module rotates around the rotation axis 70, and the limiting mechanism 30 is disposed on the axial extension line of the rotation axis 70. The two stop arms 60 are arranged at an included angle. Preferably, they are perpendicular to each other.

[0059] Preferably, the rotating shaft 70 is located within the included angle region defined by the two stop arms 60. In this way, the rotation angle of the moving module rotating about the rotating shaft 70 is limited, and the overall structure of the brewing assembly 100 is compact and occupies a small volume.

[0060] Ideally, such as Figure 11 As shown, the limiting mechanism 30 further includes a fixed sleeve 62 circumferentially disposed around the outer periphery of the rotating shaft 70. Two stop arms 60 extend tangentially outward from the periphery of the fixed sleeve 62 and at least partially overlap with the moving module in the rotational direction of the moving module. Thus, when the moving module, rotating around the rotating shaft 70, moves to the limited position, its periphery abuts against the corresponding flexible member 61, achieving the limiting effect.

[0061] Obviously, the embodiments described above are only some embodiments of this utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, those skilled in the art can make other variations or modifications without creative effort, and all such variations or modifications should fall within the protection scope of this utility model.
