Benefits of technology

[0056]In the technical solution provided by this utility model, an elastic element is sandwiched between the lid and the main housing, which can elastically fill the assembly gap between the lid and the main housing, thereby helping to ensure the smooth flipping movement of the lid relative to the main housing and improving the sealing between the lid and the main housing. Since the lid is close to the grinding assembly and bean hopper inside the main housing, it prevents water and moisture from entering the grinding assembly and bean hopper through the gap between the lid and the main housing in a catering working environment. Because the elastic element has a certain elastic deformation capacity, it can form an elastic resistance between the lid and the main housing, which on the one hand helps to form a sufficient shock absorption effect in the direction between the lid and the main housing; on the other hand, it can dampen the flipping movement of the lid relative to the main housing, preventing, for example, when the external force is removed, the lid will suddenly flip back to its original position under the action of gravity, which would cause structural collision damage to the machine components.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of beverage machine technology, specifically to a body component and a beverage machine. Background Technology

[0002] Beverage machines generally include a main housing, a control panel, and at least one functional module. The functional module can be housed within the main housing. The control panel is typically detachably connected to the main housing, allowing the user to inspect and maintain the functional module when disassembled. Existing control panels are generally designed to be completely detachable from the main housing, which presents relatively inconvenient disassembly and assembly operations, and the detached panel components are easily lost, leading to difficulties in reassembly.

[0003] A beverage machine currently has a panel that can be flipped relative to the main housing. However, a gap can easily form between the panel and the main housing, causing instability in the panel's movement during flipping. Furthermore, external liquids or impurities can easily enter the main housing through this gap, reducing the overall quality of the machine. Utility Model Content

[0071] Please see Figures 1 to 7 This utility model provides a body component and its application in beverage machines.

[0072] For ease of understanding, the following embodiments will be described using the example of a body component and the beverage machine to which it is applied, which are arranged in pairs in the vertical, front-back, and left-right directions.

[0073] Specifically, in the first design of the fuselage assembly, the fuselage assembly includes a main housing 100, a cover 200, and an elastic element 300. The main housing 100 has a mounting cavity with an opening. The cover 200 is rotatably mounted on the main housing 100 and can be flipped to open and close the opening. The elastic element 300 is disposed in either the cover 200 or the main housing 100, and elastically abuts against the other during the flipping process.

[0074] In the technical solution provided by this utility model, the elastic element 300 is sandwiched between the cover 200 and the main housing 100, which can elastically fill the assembly gap between the cover 200 and the main housing 100, thereby helping to ensure the smooth flipping movement of the cover 200 relative to the main housing 100 and improving the sealing between the cover 200 and the main housing 100. Since the cover 200 is close to the grinding component and bean hopper inside the main housing 100, it prevents water and moisture from entering the grinding component and bean hopper through the gap between the cover 200 and the main housing 100 in a catering work environment. Since the elastic element 300 has a certain elastic deformation capability, it can form an elastic resistance between the cover 200 and the main body shell 100. On the one hand, it helps to form a sufficient shock absorption effect in the direction between the cover 200 and the main body shell 100; on the other hand, it can form a certain damping on the flipping movement of the cover 200 relative to the main body shell 100, so as to avoid, for example, when the external force is removed, the cover 200 suddenly flips back to its original position relative to the main body shell 100 under the action of gravity, which would cause structural collision damage to the fuselage components.

[0075] It is understood that the interior of the main unit housing 100 forms a mounting cavity. The mounting cavity has one or at least two openings. The openings can be located in any position. For example, they can be located on the front or left and right sides of the main unit housing 100. The openings can be located across the entire housing plate on the corresponding side. Alternatively, the openings can be located on a portion of the housing plate on the corresponding side.

[0076] For ease of understanding, in the following embodiments, the front end of the main unit housing 100 is defined as having an opening. Correspondingly, the main unit housing 100 includes first shell plates 110 disposed on the left and right sides of the opening.

[0077] The cover 200 is rotatably mounted relative to the main housing 100. Specifically, the housing assembly may also include, for example, a rotating shaft. The cover 200 is rotatably mounted to the two first housing plates 110 via the rotating shaft. During its rotation, the cover 200 has a closed position, which is flipped to fully close the opening, and an open position, which is flipped to open the opening. The open position may be set to one or at least two different opening degrees.

[0078] The cover 200 can be directly configured as a plate-like structure. Alternatively, depending on actual needs, the cover 200 can be roughly block-shaped, with an internal accommodating cavity. The accommodating cavity can accommodate at least one functional module of the beverage machine. The functional module housed within the accommodating cavity can be, but is not limited to, one or at least two of a beverage output module, a milk output module, a steam output module, and a display / control module. The functional module housed within the mounting cavity can be, but is not limited to, one or at least two of a brewing module, a grinding module, a milk supply module, and a liquid supply module.

[0079] When the cover 200 is flipped to any open position, the opening is opened. This exposes at least one functional module housed within the mounting cavity, allowing for disassembly and assembly as needed. Simultaneously, the cover 200 is raised. This exposes at least one functional module housed within the receiving cavity and raises it to the required height and angle, facilitating cleaning and other maintenance work.

[0080] When the front end of the main housing 100 is opened as described above, the cover 200 correspondingly includes a front panel 220 and first cover plates 210 disposed on the left and right sides of the front panel 220. The first cover plate 210 and the first housing plate 110 on the same side are facing each other and spaced apart. During the flipping process, the first cover plate 210 moves relative to the first housing plate 110.

[0081] It should be noted that the gap between the first cover plate 210 and the first shell plate 110 on the same side is not limited to a specially reserved gap. It may also be an assembly gap caused by dimensional or other precision errors during the assembly process.

[0082] Furthermore, the aforementioned gaps may be formed on the left and right sides between the cover 200 and the main housing 100. Alternatively, the aforementioned gaps may be formed on the left or right side between the cover 200 and the main housing 100. As described above, the main housing 100 is provided with a pair of first housings 110, the cover 200 is sandwiched between the pair of first housings 110, and elastic members 300 are symmetrically provided on both sides of the first cover plate 210. Therefore, for ease of understanding, in the following embodiments, the gap formed between one set of first housings 110 and the first cover plate 210 will be used as an example for explanation.

[0083] The elastic element 300 is disposed at the aforementioned gap. Depending on actual needs, the elastic element 300 can be arbitrarily disposed on the first cover plate 210 and / or the first shell plate 110. Optionally, the elastic element 300 can be disposed on one of the first cover plate 210 and the first shell plate 110 that are relatively fixed.

[0084] Specifically, the elastic element 300 can be fixedly disposed on the first cover plate 210 and elastically abut against the first shell plate 110 during the flipping process. Alternatively, the elastic element 300 can be fixedly disposed on the first shell plate 110 and elastically abut against the first cover plate 210 during the flipping process. Alternatively, at least two elastic elements 300 can be provided, with one of the two elastic elements 300 fixed to the first shell plate 110 and the other fixed to the first cover plate 210.

[0085] Specifically, such as Figures 2 to 5 In the structure shown, the elastic element 300 is fixedly disposed at the first shell plate 110 and elastically abuts against the first cover plate 210 during the flipping process. It should be noted that the fixed arrangement of the elastic element 300 relative to the first shell plate 110 can be such that the elastic element 300 and at least a partial structure of the first shell plate 110 are integrally formed. Alternatively, the elastic element 300 and the first shell plate 110 can be detachably or non-detachably connected and fixed after being separately formed. When the elastic element 300 and the first shell plate 110 are separate and detachably connected, their installation positions can remain constant. Alternatively, their installation positions can be flexibly adjusted in any direction according to actual needs; once adjusted to the correct position, the elastic element 300 is fixed relative to the first shell plate 110.

[0086] The specific method of fixing the elastic element 300 to the first shell plate 110 is not limited. For example, but not limited to, the elastic element 300 can be bonded to the first shell plate 110. Alternatively, the elastic element 300 can be vacuum-adhesive fixed to the first shell plate 110. Or, the elastic element 300 can be screwed to the first shell plate 110, etc.

[0087] Specifically, such as Figures 3 to 4 In the structure shown, the first shell plate 110 has a mounting groove, and the elastic member 300 is received within the mounting groove, with a portion protruding from the groove opening. It is understood that the elastic member 300 and the mounting groove can be interference-fitted through dimensional design, secured by protruding and recessed structures, or bonded using a coating such as an adhesive layer. This ensures that the portion of the elastic member 300 received within the mounting groove is not easily dislodged. The partial protrusion of the elastic member 300 from the groove opening creates sufficient deformation space for elastic contact with the first cover plate 210.

[0088] When the thickness of the first shell plate 110 is sufficient, the mounting groove can be a recessed structure directly recessed into the surface of the first shell plate 110. Alternatively, in one embodiment, at least two ribs are partially protruding from the surface of the first shell plate 110, with the two ribs spaced apart and extending side by side, to define the mounting groove together with the surface of the first shell plate 110. By defining the mounting groove by the two ribs protruding from the surface of the first shell plate 110, it is ensured that the protrusion height of the elastic member 300 is sufficient. It is also ensured that the surface of the first shell plate 110 without the two ribs will not come into contact with the first cover plate 210. In this way, during the flipping movement of the cover 200 relative to the main housing 100, basically only the partial surface of the first cover plate 210 and the elastic member 300 are in contact, which helps to reduce the friction area between them, thereby making the flipping process of the cover 200 relative to the main housing 100 easier.

[0089] The specific form of the elastic element 300 is not limited, and the relative orientation of the elastic element 300 between the first shell plate 110 and the first cover plate 210 is not limited.

[0090] For example, in one application, the elastic element 300 may include an elongated rib 310.

[0091] The elongated rib 310 is a rib structure arranged in a longitudinal shape. When the elastic member 300 is placed in the mounting groove as described above, the mounting groove extends longitudinally on the surface of the first shell plate 110, which is approximately matched with the shape and size of the elongated rib 310.

[0092] The number of elongated ribs 310 can be one or at least two. When the number of elongated ribs 310 is at least two, each elongated rib 310 can be of the same size, shape, and material. Alternatively, at least one of the size, shape, and material of each elongated rib 310 may be different.

[0093] Specifically, when two elongated ribs 310 are provided, these two elongated ribs 310 can be a first elastic rib 310a and a second elastic rib 310b, respectively. The first elastic rib 310a extends elongatedly along the front end of the first shell plate 110. The first elastic rib 310a can seal the front side of the gap between the first shell plate 110 and the first cover plate 210. In particular, when the cover 200 is flipped to the closed position, it can seal the outside of the gap to prevent moisture, impurities, etc. from entering the mounting cavity.

[0094] And / or, the second elastic rib 310b extends in an arc shape and / or an oblique shape on the surface of the first shell plate 110. The second elastic rib 310b can be adapted to the shape of the surface of the first cover plate 210. For example, the second elastic rib 310b extends in an arc shape on the surface of the first shell plate 110. When the first cover plate 210 flips relative to the first shell plate 110, the arc-shaped extension direction of the second elastic rib 310b is adapted to the movement direction of the first cover plate 210 relative to the first shell plate 110. In this way, it can be ensured that during the entire stroke of the cover 200 flipping relative to the main housing 100, there is always an elastic element 300 providing elastic contact between the first shell plate 110 and the first cover plate 210.

[0095] Specifically, in the structure shown in the figure, the surface of the first shell plate 110 may be provided with two first protruding ribs 111. The two first protruding ribs 111 together enclose and define a first mounting groove 112. A first elastic rib 310a is assembled with the first mounting groove 112. The surface of the first shell plate 110 may be provided with two second protruding ribs 113. The two second protruding ribs 113 together enclose and define a second mounting groove 114. A second elastic rib 310b is assembled with the second mounting groove 114.

[0096] The first rib 111 and the second rib 113 may be completely spaced apart. Alternatively, for example, the second rib 113 may extend to its end to directly or indirectly abut against the first rib 111.

[0097] Furthermore, if the elastic element 300 described above has an abutment surface for elastic contact, then in practical applications, the abutment surface can be configured in a convex arc shape. The contact between the convex arc-shaped abutment surface and the first cover plate 210 is smoother and more seamless.

[0098] The aforementioned elastic element 300 is designed to prevent it from easily detaching from the mounting groove. Several methods can achieve this. For example, one of the outer wall of the elastic element 300 and the side wall of the mounting groove may have a stop protrusion, while the other has a stop mating portion. The stop protrusion and the stop mating portion cooperate to restrict the elastic element 300 from detaching from the mounting groove. Specifically, if the outer wall of the elastic element 300 has a stop protrusion, the stop mating portion can be a stop recess recessed in the side wall of the mounting groove near its own opening, with the stop protrusion and stop recess fitting together. Alternatively, the stop mating portion can be another stop protrusion protruding from the opening of the mounting groove, with the two stop protrusions engaging.

[0099] Specifically, such as Figure 7 As shown, the first elastic rib 310a and / or the second elastic rib 310b of the elastic member 300 may include a main body 311, a protrusion 312, and at least two elastic arms 313.

[0100] The main body 311 is a hollow tubular structure, which provides sufficient elastic strength.

[0101] The protrusion 312 protrudes radially from the outer wall of the main body 311. The elastic strength of the protrusion 312 is not limited, for example, it can be slightly greater than the elastic strength of the main body 311.

[0102] At least two elastic arms 313 are disposed on opposite sides of the protrusion 312 and extend obliquely outward from the side wall of the protrusion 312 and toward the main body 311.

[0103] When the elastic element 300 is installed in the mounting groove, the protrusion 312, each elastic arm 313 and the partial main body 311 are housed in the mounting groove. The free end of the elastic arm 313 abuts against the corresponding side wall of the mounting groove. The elastic arm 313 forms a stop protrusion, and the corresponding side wall of the mounting groove forms a stop mating part.

[0104] Each elastic arm 313 can be integrally formed with the protrusion 312. Alternatively, the elastic arm 313 and the protrusion 312 can be detachably or non-detachably connected after being separately formed.

[0105] The elastic strength of at least a portion of the elastic arm 313 can be set to be less than that of the protrusion 312, so as to allow for a certain degree of elastic bending deformation. Because the elastic arm 313 extends obliquely toward the main body 311, when an external force operates the elastic member 300 to move into the mounting groove, that is, when the elastic member 300 is assembled into the mounting groove, the oblique arrangement of the elastic arm 313 causes the outer diameter of the elastic member 300 to gradually taper into a cone shape, facilitating the smooth insertion of the elastic member 300. Conversely, when an external force operates the elastic member 300 to move out of the mounting groove, that is, when the elastic member 300 is pulled out of the mounting groove, the oblique arrangement of the elastic arm 313 causes the outer diameter of the elastic member 300 to gradually increase into a cone shape, and at least one elastic arm 313 can be bent and deformed to form a barb, which can prevent the elastic member 300 from being pulled outwards.

[0106] In a further embodiment, the elastic arm 313 can be thinned in the direction away from the protrusion 312. This allows the elastic arm 313 to be more easily elastically deformed the further it is from the protrusion 312, and to have sufficient rigidity the closer it is to the protrusion 312.

[0107] like Figure 7In the structure shown, the elastic arm 313 can be one or at least two spaced apart in the protruding direction of the protruding post 312. In this case, the lengths (i.e., the heights protruding from the protruding post 312) of each elastic arm 313 arranged sequentially in the protruding direction of the protruding post 312 can be the same. Alternatively, the lengths (i.e., the heights protruding from the protruding post 312) of each elastic arm 313 arranged sequentially in the protruding direction of the protruding post 312 can be different. Specifically, for example, in the direction away from the main body 311, the lengths of each elastic arm 313 can gradually increase to accommodate mounting grooves of different widths. Alternatively, gradually increasing interference can be formed within the same mounting groove.

[0108] Based on one or more embodiments of the first design scheme described above, this utility model also provides a second design scheme for the fuselage assembly. Specifically, the fuselage assembly includes a main housing 100, a cover 200, and an elastic member 300. The main housing 100 forms a mounting cavity with a front opening. The main housing 100 includes a first shell plate 110 located beside the opening. The cover 200 is rotatably mounted to the main housing 100 and can be flipped to open and close the opening. The cover 200 includes a first cover plate 210 facing the first shell plate 110. The elastic member 300 is disposed on one of the first shell plate 110 and the first cover plate 210, and elastically abuts against the other during the flipping process.

[0109] The difference from the first design is that at least a portion of the elastic element 300 is floatably disposed along the opposing direction between the first shell plate 110 and the first cover plate 210. That is, at least a portion of the elastic element 300 can move a certain distance along the opposing direction between the first shell plate 110 and the first cover plate 210, thereby floating to adjust the relative distance between the first shell plate 110 and the first cover plate 210.

[0110] When the mounting groove is provided in the first shell plate 110 as described above, a floating gap is formed between the bottom end of the elastic member 300 and the bottom wall of the mounting groove, and the top end of the elastic member 300 protrudes from the opening of the mounting groove. Under external force, the elastic member 300 can move at least toward the bottom wall of the mounting groove. Thus, during the process of the cover 200 flipping relative to the main shell 100, when the force exerted by the cover 200 on the main shell 100 reaches a first threshold, the elastic member 300 can be squeezed, causing the elastic member 300 to move toward the bottom wall of the mounting groove. When the force exerted by the cover 200 on the main shell 100 reaches a second threshold, the elastic member 300 can be squeezed, causing at least a local elastic deformation of the elastic member 300.

[0111] It should be noted that there is no restriction on the relationship between the first threshold and the second threshold. That is, the first threshold can be less than the second threshold, or the first threshold can be greater than the second threshold.

[0112] When the first elastic rib 310a and / or the second elastic rib 310b as described above include a body 311, a protrusion 312 and at least two elastic arms 313, the aforementioned floating gap is formed between the bottom end of the protrusion 312 and the bottom wall of the mounting groove.

[0113] Based on one or more embodiments of the first and / or second design schemes described above, this utility model also provides a third design scheme for the fuselage assembly. Specifically, the fuselage assembly includes a main housing 100, a cover 200, and an elastic member 300. The main housing 100 has a mounting cavity with an opening. The cover 200 is rotatably mounted to the main housing 100 and can be flipped to open and close the opening. The elastic member 300 is disposed in either the cover 200 or the main housing 100 and elastically abuts against the other during the flipping process.

[0114] The difference from the above design is that a water collection tank is provided below the opening. Specifically, the water collection tank is located directly below the beverage outlet. A grille can be installed at the opening of the water collection tank. The grille can accommodate an external container to facilitate the collection of beverages discharged from the beverage outlet. Then, at least a portion of the elastic member 300 extends towards the water collection tank. In this way, liquid remaining on the body components, particularly the first shell plate 110 and / or the first cover plate 210, can slide along that portion of the elastic member 300 and fall into the water collection tank.

[0115] When the elastic member 300 as described above includes an elongated rib 310, and specifically includes a second elastic rib 310b, the purpose of guiding the residual liquid to the collection tank can be achieved because the second elastic rib 310b extends in an arc shape and / or oblique shape.

[0116] Furthermore, the main casing 100 also includes a second casing 120 that abuts against the first casing 110 and is disposed with its surface facing forward. The second casing 120 extends vertically. The second casing 120 may directly protrude from the first casing 110. Alternatively, the second casing 120 may be part of the front panel of the main casing 100. The second elastic rib 310b extends toward the second casing 120 and abuts against the second casing 120. In this way, residual liquid in the main casing 100 can slide down the second casing 120 to the first casing 110. Subsequently, the liquid can slide down the second elastic rib 310b into the water collection tank.

[0117] Based on one or more embodiments of the first, second, and / or third design schemes described above, this utility model also provides a fourth design scheme for the fuselage assembly. Specifically, the fuselage assembly includes a main housing 100, a cover 200, and an elastic member 300. The main housing 100 forms a mounting cavity with a front opening. The main housing 100 includes a first shell plate 110 located beside the opening. The cover 200 is rotatably mounted to the main housing 100 and can be flipped to open and close the opening. An accommodating cavity is formed inside the cover 200. The cover 200 includes a first cover plate 210 facing the first shell plate 110. The elastic member 300 is disposed on one of the first shell plate 110 and the first cover plate 210, and elastically abuts against the other during the flipping process.

[0118] Unlike the design described above, the fuselage assembly also includes at least one electronic control module. This electronic control module is housed within a receiving cavity. The electronic control module has at least one electrical connection portion 410. Specifically, the first cover plate 210 has an opening 211 communicating with the receiving cavity, and the at least one electrical connection portion 410 is located at the opening 211. The elastic member 300 includes an elastic cover plate 320 movably covering the opening 211. After the elastic cover plate 320 opens the opening 211, the electrical connection portion 410 is exposed, allowing for electrical connection with an external electrical contact portion.

[0119] As described above, a first cover plate 210 is formed on each of the left and right sides of the cover body 200. Therefore, the elastic cover plate 320 and the aforementioned elongated rib 310 can be located at the same first cover plate 210. Alternatively, the elastic cover plate 320 and the aforementioned elongated rib 310 can be located at different first cover plates 210.

[0120] The electrical connection part 410 is, for example, an electrical interface. Specifically, it can be a power interface, a USB interface, etc. When the elastic cover 320 closes the opening 211, it can effectively protect the electrical connection part 410. At this time, the elastic cover 320 can perform functions such as sealing, shock absorption, and damping as described above. When the elastic cover 320 opens the opening 211, the electrical connection part 410 can be exposed. At this time, the external electrical mating part can more easily and securely connect with the electrical connection part 410.

[0121] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and does not limit the patent scope of the present utility model. All equivalent structural transformations made under the inventive concept of the present utility model using the contents of the present utility model specification and drawings, or direct / indirect applications in other related technical fields, are included within the patent protection scope of the present utility model.
