Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of coffee machine accessories, specifically a coffee machine drip tray. Background Technology

[0002] During the use of a coffee machine, the drip tray is an important component for collecting excess water. However, traditional coffee machine drip trays usually lack a reasonable drainage structure, resulting in uneven distribution of water within the tray and difficulty in smooth drainage. Cleaning requires removing the entire drip tray and emptying it, which is cumbersome. At the same time, most traditional drip trays do not have a dedicated filter, and coffee grounds and other impurities in the water remain directly inside the drip tray, which is difficult to clean. This not only affects the appearance but also easily breeds bacteria, shortens the lifespan of the drip tray, and brings a poor user experience.

[0003] The prior art discloses a drip tray device for a coffee machine, with publication number CN222804175U, which includes: a machine body, a beverage outlet assembly, a water storage tray, a drip tray, a drip tray base, a coffee machine door assembly, a cup placement plate, a liquid guide component, and a liquid guide outlet. Although the drip tray can effectively collect residual liquid on the machine and prevent residual liquid from dripping when the door is opened, it cannot solve the problems of impurity filtration and water accumulation dead corners. Utility Model Content

[0004] To address the aforementioned technical problems or one of the technical problems existing in the prior art, this utility model discloses a drip tray for a coffee machine, including a water collection box and a drain plate installed on the top of the water collection box, as well as a first guide plate and a filter box. The rear end of the first guide plate is installed in the middle of the rear side wall inside the water collection box, and the filter box is installed in the front end inside the water collection box. The filter box is located below the first guide plate. The top surface of the first guide plate has a slope, the top of the filter box is open, the inner sides of the four sides of the top surface have chamfers, the rear side wall has a filter screen, and the bottom surface has a slope.

[0005] Furthermore, the rear side wall inside the water collection box is provided with an installation groove, a magnet is fixedly connected in the installation groove, a metal sheet is fixedly connected to the rear end of the first guide plate, the rear end of the first guide plate is installed in the installation groove, and the front end is placed on the top of the rear side wall of the water collection box.

[0006] Furthermore, the bottom surface inside the water collection box is sloped, with the front end of the bottom surface being higher than the rear end.

[0007] Furthermore, the front end of the bottom surface inside the water collection box is provided with a groove, and the filter box is placed in the groove.

[0008] Furthermore, a flow guide groove is provided at the rear end of the bottom surface inside the water collection box, with one end of the flow guide groove being lower than the other end, and the lower end extending outward to form a water outlet, with a water plug provided inside the water outlet.

[0009] Furthermore, a second guide plate is fixed to the bottom surface inside the water collection box. The second guide plate is triangular and is located at one corner opposite the water outlet.

[0010] Furthermore, the front end of the top surface of the first guide plate is lower than the rear end.

[0011] Furthermore, the front end of the bottom surface of the filter box is higher than the rear end.

[0012] Compared with existing technologies, this invention, by setting a first guide plate, the slope of its top surface guides the water flowing from the drain plate to the filter box, ensuring directional water flow and preventing water from randomly distributing within the collection box. The filter box effectively filters impurities in the water; the filter screen on the rear side wall effectively intercepts impurities such as coffee grounds, keeping the collection box clean and reducing bacterial growth. Furthermore, the chamfered design on the inner sides of the top four sides of the filter box allows for smoother water flow into the filter box, improving filtration efficiency. The slope of the bottom surface of the filter box facilitates the removal of filtered water. Water flows into the collection box, where the slope of the bottom surface and the guide channel guide the water towards the outlet, ensuring smooth drainage. The plug inside the outlet facilitates cleaning without removing the entire collection box, making operation simple and convenient. The first guide plate is installed using the attraction between a magnet and a metal sheet, making it easy to disassemble and clean. The filter box is placed in the groove, making it easy to remove for cleaning or replacement, ensuring convenient maintenance. The second guide plate guides the water in the corners of the collection box to the guide channel, preventing water from stagnating in the corners and further improving drainage efficiency.
