The drip tray includes a box body and a box cover located at the opening of the box body and covering the box body. The box body extends outward with two protruding strips. The upper surface of the protruding strips is set in a bevel shape, and the thickness of the end adjacent to the box body is greater than the thickness of the other opposite end. The distance between the lower side of the brewing mechanism and the bottom surface of the coffee machine body is not less than the length of the drip tray along the direction in which the protruding strips are provided. The brewing mechanism has two storage slots on both sides of its water outlet that match the protruding strips, so that the disassembled drip tray can be assembled onto the brewing mechanism through the cooperation between the protruding strips and the storage slots. Although the structure is simple and the drip tray can be easily installed and disassembled, its water tray is a single-layer fixed height design, which cannot accommodate coffee cups of all heights in commercial use.

[0004] In view of the above-mentioned defects in the existing technology, the present invention aims to provide a new brewing head structure that fundamentally improves the water flow distribution method. Through innovative internal flow channel design and component structure, it achieves a more efficient and uniform coffee extraction effect while maintaining the simplicity and reliability of the structure. Utility Model Content

[0005] To address the aforementioned technical problems or one of the technical problems existing in the prior art, this utility model discloses a height-adjustable coffee machine drip tray, comprising a base and a tray. The base is rectangular with an open top, and the tray is placed in the opening of the base. Connecting blocks are fixed to the inner walls on both sides of the base, and the top surface of the connecting blocks has an installation groove. Support platforms are fixed to the front and rear inner walls of the base, and the support platforms are at the same horizontal height as the top surface of the connecting blocks. Three sets of connecting blocks and support platforms are arranged longitudinally. The tray is rectangular, with connecting plates fixed to both sides. Connecting columns are fixed to the bottom surface of the connecting plates, and the connecting columns are located in the installation grooves.

[0006] Furthermore, the bottom surface of the inner side of the base is provided with a V-shaped groove, which is arranged along the front and rear axial directions.

[0007] Furthermore, the bottom inner surface of the base is provided with a T-shaped groove, which is arranged along the left and right axial directions.

[0008] Furthermore, the V-groove and the T-groove are connected at their middle parts.

[0009] Furthermore, the base has a water outlet on its front side, which is positioned to correspond to and communicate with the V-shaped groove, and a drain plug is inserted into the water outlet.

[0010] Furthermore, the top surface of the tray is provided with multiple strip-shaped drainage holes.

[0011] Furthermore, the base is provided with an arc-shaped support piece. The top of the arc-shaped support piece is covered with a soft rubber sleeve and extends upward through the drainage hole of the tray. The bottom of the arc-shaped support piece is fixed with a T-shaped slider. The T-shaped slider is located in a T-shaped groove. The arc-shaped support piece is connected to the base through the T-shaped slider and the T-shaped groove.

[0012] Furthermore, the T-shaped slider is fitted with a T-shaped rubber sleeve on its outer side.

[0013] Furthermore, there are two arc-shaped support plates, which are respectively located on both sides of the center of the base with their concave surfaces facing the center and perpendicular to the bottom surface of the base.

[0014] Compared with existing technologies, this utility model, through the cooperation of multiple sets of connecting blocks on both sides of the base and the front and rear support platforms, combined with the matching of connecting columns and mounting grooves on the tray connecting plate, can realize multi-level height adjustment of the tray, adapting to coffee cups of different heights. This solves the problems of fixed or inconvenient height adjustment and difficulty in adapting to multiple cup types in existing drip trays. The symmetrically arranged arc-shaped support plates inside the base are made of elastic plastic material, providing lateral clamping force. The T-shaped slider at its bottom slides with the T-shaped groove of the base, adjusting the distance between the two support plates to adapt to cups of different diameters. At the same time, the soft rubber sleeve at the top of the support plate changes the hard contact between the support plate and the cup to a soft contact, which not only increases the contact area and friction to improve stability, but also avoids scratching the cup. The support plate extends through the tray drainage hole to the top of the tray to contact the bottom of the cup, further enhancing the stability of the cup and preventing it from being unstable or tipping over. The V-shaped groove on the inner side of the base connects with the T-shaped groove, which can guide the wastewater leaking from the tray drainage hole to flow together. Combined with the water outlet on the front of the base, wastewater can be discharged without disassembling the tray, while avoiding T-shaped grooves. Water can accumulate in the groove; the base has a four-point support design with connecting blocks and support platform to ensure the stability of the tray. The components are reasonably arranged and do not interfere with each other, which significantly improves the adaptability of the water tray, the stability of the cup, and the ease of cleaning.

[0015] In summary, this utility model is compatible with coffee cups of different heights and diameters, keeps the cups stable and prevents them from tipping over, avoids scratching the cups, allows drainage without removing the tray and prevents water accumulation, and keeps the tray stable, significantly improving the adaptability, stability and ease of cleaning of the drip tray.
