Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of teaware technology, specifically to a brewing utensil. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, teapots, also known as tea infusers, are popular among many users because of their tea brewing and filtering functions. Existing teapots have different solutions for water level control during tea brewing, which can be roughly divided into contact-type press-down water dispensing and non-contact-type magnetic control water dispensing. For teapots with magnetic control water dispensing, the magnetic control components are usually distributed inside the handle or lid, such as CN218683539U, an automatic timed teapot, and CN221330853U, a magnetic control switch tea-water separation tea infuser.

[0003] One type of automatic timed teapot uses circuit control to adjust the position of a magnetic component to control the opening and closing of the valve assembly. Its structure is complex, and the valve cannot be opened when the power is off. Another type of magnetically controlled tea-water separation infuser cup, although free from the limitations of circuits and with a simple structure, has a problem: before the water inlet is opened, the magnetic control part is magnetically attached to the top of the slide, which has poor adhesion. The magnetic control part may detach from the top of the slide unplanned and slide to the bottom of the slide under gravity. The magnetic control part then acts on the blockage, causing the water inlet to open unplanned. This results in poor controllability and can easily affect the steeping time and flavor of the tea. Utility Model Content

[0004] In view of the shortcomings of the existing technology, this utility model proposes a brewing device with simple structure and good controllability.

[0005] The technical solution of this utility model is implemented as follows:

[0006] A brewing device includes a pot body and a base, the pot body being detachably placed on the base, the pot body including an outer cup and an inner cup for brewing tea placed inside and above the outer cup;

[0007] The bottom of the inner cup is provided with a through hole, and a drain assembly is provided on the through hole;

[0008] The drainage assembly includes a drain nozzle with a water outlet at the bottom, a filter screen above the drain nozzle, the drain nozzle and the filter screen forming a receiving cavity, and a first magnetic control assembly for sealing the water outlet is provided in the receiving cavity.

[0009] The base is equipped with a second magnetic control component. By changing the position of the kettle body on the base, the first magnetic control component can switch between two states: blocking the water outlet and opening the water outlet.

[0010] In a preferred embodiment, the base includes a generally horizontal first position and a second position. The second magnetic control component includes an active strong magnet located within the base and overlapping the first position. By moving the kettle body between the first position and the second position, the first magnetic control component switches between blocking the water outlet and opening the water outlet.

[0011] In a preferred embodiment, the first magnetic control component has a sealing position located at the water outlet and an open water position located away from the water outlet in the accommodating cavity, wherein the sealing position and the open water position are determined according to the position of the base.

[0012] In a preferred embodiment, when the kettle body is in the first position, the first position is approximately vertically below the water outlet, and the second position is offset from vertically below the water outlet, with the active strong magnet's S / N poles facing the first magnetic control component.

[0013] In a preferred embodiment, the first magnetic control assembly includes an arc-shaped sealing head and a passive strong magnet, extending from the head to the back of the first magnetic control assembly to form a chamber that encloses the passive strong magnet, which is a radial strong magnet that is generally columnar.

[0014] In a preferred embodiment, the passive strong magnet is encased in food-grade material, and when the kettle body is in the first position, the magnetic pole direction of the passive strong magnet is directly opposite the magnetic pole direction of the active strong magnet.

[0015] In a preferred embodiment, the top surface of the base is provided with a water drainage area and a tea brewing area, the center point of the water drainage area roughly coincides with the first position, and the second position is roughly located in the tea brewing area.

[0016] In a preferred embodiment, a heating module is provided inside the base near the upper surface, and the position of the heating module overlaps with the drainage area.

[0017] In a preferred embodiment, a retaining edge is provided around the top edge of the base.

[0018] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages.

[0019] By adding a base and placing the second magnetic control component inside the base, while placing the first magnetic control component inside the kettle body, the magnetic force between the second and first magnetic control components changes as the position of the kettle body on the base is changed. This allows the first magnetic control component to switch between blocking and opening the water outlet. The structure is simple, and the position of the second magnetic control component remains unchanged during the switching between blocking and opening the water outlet, providing good controllability.

[0020] In addition, by placing the second magnetic control component in the base, the weight of the handle or lid of the teapot is reduced, which reduces the arm strength required for tea brewing and makes it more user-friendly. Moreover, the overall center of gravity of the teapot is more even, making it more stable and less likely to tip over.

[0021] Furthermore, by adding a heating module to the base to keep the tea warm, combined with the tea-brewing water dispensing function, the brewed tea can be kept at a set ideal temperature after flowing from the inner cup to the outer cup, providing a better tea flavor.

[0032] Reference Figures 1-5

[0033] A brewing device includes a pot body 1 and a base 2. The pot body 1 can be detachably placed on the base 2. The pot body 1 includes an outer cup 11 and an inner cup 12 for brewing tea, which is placed inside and above the outer cup 11.

[0034] The bottom of the inner cup 12 is provided with a through hole, and a drain assembly 3 is provided on the through hole;

[0035] The drainage assembly 3 includes a drain nozzle 31 with a water outlet at the bottom, a filter screen 32 above the drain nozzle 31, the drain nozzle 31 and the filter screen 32 form a receiving cavity, and a first magnetic control assembly 4 for sealing the water outlet is provided in the receiving cavity.

[0036] The base 2 is equipped with a second magnetic control component 5. By changing the position of the kettle body 1 on the base 2, the first magnetic control component 4 can switch between two states: blocking the water outlet and opening the water outlet.

[0037] In other words, the first magnetic control component 4 is remotely controlled by the second magnetic control component 5, which then blocks the water outlet when brewing tea and opens it to allow water to flow after brewing. The control method is to change the position of the kettle body 1 on the base 2. As the position of the kettle body 1 changes, the position of the first magnetic control component 4 inside the kettle body 1 changes synchronously. The relative position and distance between the first magnetic control component 4 and the second magnetic control component 5 change accordingly, causing the magnitude and angle of the magnetic force between the first magnetic control component 4 and the second magnetic control component 5 to change, thereby achieving the effect of magnetically blocking / opening the water outlet. The corresponding technical principles and references have been mentioned in the background art.

[0038] In a preferred embodiment, the base 2 includes a generally horizontal first position and a second position. The second magnetic control component 5 includes an active strong magnet located inside the base 2 and overlapping with the first position. By moving the kettle body 1 between the first position and the second position, the first magnetic control component 4 can switch between two states: blocking the water outlet and opening the water outlet.

[0039] The second magnetic control component 5 is fixed in the base 2 by adhesive, welding, riveting or snap-fitting to counteract the effect of gravity. That is, during the process of switching between the two states of blocking the water outlet and opening the water outlet, the position of the active strong magnet in the base 2 remains unchanged, while the first position and the second position are roughly horizontal. That is, the two states of opening and closing the water outlet are switched by horizontally moving the position of the kettle body 1, which effectively avoids the problem of the water outlet opening unplanned under the influence of gravity in the existing method of vertically moving the magnet.

[0040] In a preferred embodiment, the first magnetic control component 4 has a blocking position located at the water outlet and an open water position located away from the water outlet in the accommodating cavity, wherein the blocking position and the open water position are determined according to the position of the base 2.

[0041] In a preferred embodiment, when the kettle body 1 is in the first position, the first position is approximately vertically below the water outlet, and the second position is offset from vertically below the water outlet, with the active strong magnet's S / N poles facing the first magnetic control component 4.

[0042] In this specific embodiment, at least the following status bits are guaranteed:

[0043] With the drain turned on, the kettle body 1 is in the first position, and the first magnetic control component 4 is roughly vertically above the first position, that is, roughly vertically above the second magnetic control component 5. At this time, the magnetic poles of the second magnetic control component 5 and the first magnetic control component 4 at their adjacent ends are the same, that is, the second magnetic control component 5 and the first magnetic control component 4 are in a state of mutual repulsion, thereby causing the first magnetic control component 4 to move away from the water outlet and form a drain channel.

[0044] With the drain closed, the kettle body 1 is in the second position, and the first magnetic control component 4 is roughly located vertically above the second position. The repulsive force between the first magnetic control component 4 and the second magnetic control component 5 is reduced to an insufficient level to push the first magnetic control component 4 away. Under the action of gravity, the first magnetic control component 4 falls down and blocks the water outlet, thus closing the drain channel.

[0045] In the intermediate state, the kettle body 1 moves between the first position and the second position, and the first magnetic control component 4 moves synchronously and is located between the first position and the second position. Under the action of gravity and repulsion at the same time, the first magnetic control component 4 deviates from the water outlet and leans against the side wall of the accommodating cavity, and the water channel is partially opened. By adjusting the position of the kettle body 1 between the first position and the second position, the water flow rate can be adjusted.

[0046] In a preferred embodiment, the first magnetic control component 4 includes an arc-shaped sealing head 41 and a passive strong magnet 42. A chamber is formed extending from the head to the back of the first magnetic control component 4, enclosing the passive strong magnet 42. The passive strong magnet 42 is a radially strong magnet that is approximately cylindrical. It is conceivable that the sealing head 41 is positioned near the water outlet, while the passive strong magnet 42 is positioned away from the water outlet, maintaining a relatively stable magnetic field direction for the internal radial strong magnet, thus cooperating with the active strong magnet. Furthermore, when the first magnetic control component 4 falls under the influence of gravity, the arc-shaped sealing head 41 can better seal the water outlet, contributing to maintaining stability.

[0047] In a preferred embodiment, the passive strong magnet 42 is encased in food-grade material.

[0048] In a preferred embodiment, when the kettle body 1 is in the first position, the magnetic pole direction of the passive strong magnet 42 is directly opposite to the magnetic pole direction of the active strong magnet. At this time, the distance between the passive strong magnet 42 and the active strong magnet is the closest, and the repulsive force between them reaches its maximum value. Under the action of the repulsive force, the bottom of the first magnetic control component 4 abuts against the filter screen 32 and the sealing head 41 is completely separated from the water outlet, and the water flow reaches its maximum.

[0049] In a preferred embodiment, the top surface of the base 2 is provided with a water drain area 21 and a tea brewing area 22. The center point of the water drain area 21 roughly coincides with the first position, and the second position is roughly located in the tea brewing area 22. The design of the water drain area 21 and the tea brewing area 22 is to facilitate the identification of the first position and the second position. Specifically, the water drain area 21 is a circular or annular area printed on one side of the top surface of the base 2, the center of which is the location of the first position. The area on the other side of the top surface of the base 2, excluding the water drain area 21, is the tea brewing area 22.

[0050] In a preferred embodiment, a heating module 6 is provided inside the base 2 near the upper surface, and the position of the heating module 6 overlaps with the water outlet area 21. The heating module 7 is a heating film, mainly used to keep or heat the tea soup during brewing. Combined with the water outlet function, after the tea is brewed, when the pot body 1 is moved to the water outlet area 21, the second magnetic control component 5 controls the first magnetic control component 4 to open the water outlet to allow water to flow out, while the heating module 6 can maintain the tea soup flowing into the outer cup 11 at a set ideal temperature, providing a better tea flavor.

[0051] As a preferred embodiment, the top edge of the base 2 is surrounded by a retaining edge 23. This design is mainly to prevent tea water that may accidentally overflow from the pot 1 from flowing onto the tea brewing platform, making it more hygienic and easier to clean after brewing.

[0052] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
