[Figure 8] This is a flowchart of the brewing mechanism of a capsule extraction machine according to one embodiment of the present invention. [Modes for carrying out the invention]

[0010] The embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. However, the present invention is not limited to the embodiments described below, and can take various forms as long as they fall within the technical scope of the present invention.

[0011] First, an embodiment of the capsule extraction machine equipped with multiple quick-brew buttons according to the present invention will be described with reference to Figures 1 to 8.

[0012] An embodiment of the present invention, a capsule extractor equipped with multiple quick-brew buttons, is used to produce beverages corresponding to the contents of capsules 100, such as coffee, lattes, milk tea, and black tea, by drawing water from an external water source, heating and pressurizing it, and then extracting it into capsules 100. This capsule extractor 10 mainly comprises a capsule extractor body 1, a puncture needle 6, a processor 71, a power key 82, and at least three quick-brew buttons 81.

[0013] As shown in Figures 1 to 6, the capsule dispenser body 1 comprises a housing 11, a water supply pipe 12 housed within the housing 11, a water supply pipe 13, a pump 14, a capsule storage tank 15, a drain pipe 16, a heater 17, and a beverage nozzle 18 installed so as to be exposed on the housing 11. One end of the water supply pipe 12 is connected to an external water source, and the other end is connected to the pump 14. The water supply pipe 13 is connected to the water supply pipe 12, the pump 14, the heater 17, and the capsule storage tank 15, and the drain pipe 16 is connected to the capsule storage tank 15 and the beverage nozzle 18. The capsules 100 are stored in the capsule storage tank 15.

[0014] Also, the capsule storage tank 15 is installed at the upper part of the housing 11, and the capsule storage tank 15 is used to store the corresponding capsule 100 when the user manufactures a beverage using the capsule extractor 10. The beverage nozzle 18 is installed at the front side of the housing 11, the beverage nozzle 18 is communicated with the capsule storage tank 15, and a fixing base 111 extends from the rear side of the housing 11.

[0015] As shown in FIGS. 1 to 4, the detachable water tank 2 is detachably attached above the fixing base 111 of the housing 11 and is communicated with the water supply pipe 13. The pump 14 extracts water from an external water source through the water supply pipe 12 and then transports the water from the external water source into the detachable water tank 2 through the water supply pipe 13.

[0016] As shown in FIGS. 1 to 3, the capsule extractor 10 further includes a control valve set 3, and the control valve set 3 includes a first control valve 31 and a second control valve 32. The first control valve 31 is attached to the bottom end of the detachable water tank 2 and is a mechanical valve. When the pressure inside the detachable water tank 2 is higher than the external pressure, the valve of the first control valve 31 is closed. When the external pressure of the detachable water tank 2 is higher than the internal pressure, the valve of the first control valve 31 is opened. The second control valve 32 is attached to the upper part of the fixing base 111 of the housing 11. When the detachable water tank 2 is attached to the fixing base 111 of the housing 11, the second control valve 32 can be connected to the first control valve 31 at the bottom end of the detachable water tank 2.

[0017] Furthermore, the water supply piping 13 includes a first water supply pipe 131, a second water supply pipe 132, and a third water supply pipe 133. One end of the first water supply pipe 131 is connected to the pump 14, and the other end is connected to the second control valve 32. One end of the second water supply pipe 132 is connected to the second control valve 32, and the other end is connected to the heater 17. One end of the third water supply pipe 133 is connected to the heater 17, and the other end is connected to the puncture needle 6, with a portion of it housed in the top cover 4. In one embodiment, the second control valve 32 is used to first control the fluid to flow from the first water supply pipe 131 towards the first control valve 31, and then to control the fluid to flow from the first control valve 31 towards the second water supply pipe 132. In other words, the first control valve 31 and the second control valve 32 are used to control the flow of water from an external water source, first from the first water supply pipe 131 into the detachable water tank 2, and then from the detachable water tank 2 into the second water supply pipe 132.

[0018] As shown in Figures 1 to 4, the capsule extractor 10 according to the present invention is pivotally mounted above the capsule extractor body 1 and further includes an upper lid 4 that covers the capsule storage tank 15. The upper lid 4 is a hollow lid body 41, and the bottom surface of the hollow lid body 41 has a bottom plate 411, and a recessed groove 42 is provided at the front end. The puncture needle 6 is attached to the bottom plate 411 and positioned corresponding to the capsule storage tank 15, and the puncture needle 6 can be driven to puncture the capsule 100 when the capsule storage tank 15 is covered by the upper lid 4. Part of the third water supply pipe 133 is housed inside the hollow lid body 41.

[0019] As shown in FIGS. 3 to 4, when a user manufactures a beverage using the capsule extractor 10, after storing the capsule 100 in the capsule storage tank 15, the upper lid 4 is used to cover it so as to correspond to the capsule extractor main body 1. First, the capsule 100 stored in the capsule storage tank 15 is punctured by the puncturing needle 6, and the pump 14 and the heater 17 transport high-pressure hot water to the puncturing needle 6 through the water supply pipe 13. The puncturing needle 6 continuously injects high-pressure hot water into the capsule 100, uniformly mixes the high-pressure hot water and the powder in the capsule 100, and manufactures a beverage. Finally, the brewed beverage flows out from the beverage nozzle 18.

[0020] As shown in FIGS. 3 to 4, the capsule extractor 10 according to the present invention further includes a lock mechanism 5, and the lock mechanism 5 includes a movable plate 51 pivotally attached to the upper lid 4. A recessed groove 42 is provided on one side of the upper lid 4. The movable plate 51 is pivotally attached to the inner wall of the recessed groove 42 and can be fitted into or protrude from the recessed groove 42. The movable plate 51 further has a movable part 511. When the movable part 511 receives a force and the movable plate 51 is rotated in a direction approaching the upper lid 4 until it is fitted into the recessed groove 42, the movable plate 51 is held by the lock mechanism 5 so that the upper lid 4 is locked to the housing 11. When the movable plate 51 is rotated in a direction away from the upper lid 4 until it protrudes from the recessed groove 42, the movable plate 51 releases the holding of the upper lid 4 by the lock mechanism 5 and can be opened with respect to the housing 11, and the capsule storage tank 15 is exposed. By using the lock mechanism 5, it is difficult for the upper lid 4 to be accidentally opened, and in the process of puncturing the capsule 100 by the puncturing needle 6 and injecting hot water, the upper lid 4 is accidentally opened, preventing situations such as the failure of extracting the capsule 100.

[0021] In one embodiment, the capsule dispenser 10 according to the present invention has the characteristic that the detachable water tank 2 is detachably attached to the housing 11, allowing the user to manually remove the detachable water tank 2, replenish the water, and then manually reattach the full detachable water tank 2 to the housing 11. This achieves the effect of allowing the user to manually replenish the water in the event of a water outage or the like. Furthermore, if the detachable water tank 2 is attached to the fixing base 111 of the housing 11, the pump 14 can achieve an automatic water replenishment function by first extracting water from an external water source via the water supply pipe 12 and then transporting the water from the external water source into the detachable water tank 2 via the water supply pipe 13. This eliminates the drawback of the user having to manually remove the detachable water tank 2 and replenish the water after brewing multiple beverages.

[0022] Next, as shown in Figures 1 to 7, the capsule extractor 10 according to the present invention is further equipped with a processor 71, a power supply 72, three or more quick brew buttons 81, a power key 82, and at least one display 83. The processor 71, power supply 72, quick brew buttons 81, power key 82, and display 83 are all installed on a main board (not shown) inside the housing 11, and the processor 71 is electrically connected to the power supply 72, quick brew buttons 81, power key 82, and display 83 via the main board.

[0023] More specifically, the processor 71 is installed within the housing 11 and is used to control the transport of high-pressure hot water to the pump 14 and heater 17 of the capsule extractor 10 so that extraction can be performed on the capsules 100 in the capsule storage tank 15. In one embodiment, the processor 71 may be implemented as a central processing unit (CPU), a microcontroller (MCU), a programmable logic controller (PLC), a system on a chip (SoC), or an FPGA (Field Programmable Gate Array), etc.

[0024] Furthermore, the power supply 72 is connected to the processor 71 and is exposed outside the capsule extractor 10 from one side of the housing 11, and is used to connect to the commercial power supply. In one embodiment, the power supply 72 may be, for example, a power cord or a transformer.

[0025] Furthermore, the power key 82 is located on one side surface of the housing 11 and is positioned to trigger the start or stop of the capsule dispenser 10. For example, after the capsule dispenser 10 is connected to commercial power by the power supply 72, the user can start the capsule dispenser 10 by pressing the power key 82.

[0026] Additionally, three or more quick brew buttons 81 are installed on one side surface of the housing 11, and each quick brew button 81 is used to trigger a processor 71 to control a pump 14 to guide a predetermined amount of water through a water supply pipe 13 to a heater 17. The processor 71 controls the heater 17 to heat the predetermined amount of water to a predetermined temperature, and the predetermined amount of water heated to the predetermined temperature flows into the capsule storage tank 15, brewing the capsules 100 to produce a beverage and guiding the beverage out through a drain pipe 16 to a beverage nozzle 18. The pump 14 pressurizes the predetermined amount of water, the heater 17 heats the predetermined amount of water, and the high-pressure hot water is delivered to the puncture needle 6 to extract the capsules 100 in the capsule storage tank 15.

[0027] Furthermore, the capsule extraction machine body 1 is further equipped with a flow sensor 73 installed in the water supply pipe 13 or pump 14. When the flow sensor 73 detects that the amount of water in the water supply pipe 13 or pump 14 has reached a predetermined amount, it outputs a flow signal. The processor 71 receives the flow signal and then controls the pump 14 to stop extraction. The heater 17 has a temperature sensor 171. When the temperature sensor 171 detects that a predetermined amount of water has been heated to a predetermined temperature, it outputs a temperature signal. The processor 71 receives the temperature signal and then controls the heater 17 to stop heating.

[0028] In the example shown in Figure 5, in one embodiment, multiple quick brew buttons 81 correspond to different types of flow indicators 91, each of which is mounted on the surface of the housing 11 and positioned on one side of each quick brew button 81. Since the values ​​of three or more flow indicators 91 differ from one another, the default water volume corresponding to each quick brew button 81 also differs from one another. When a user places different types of capsules 100 in the capsule storage tank 15 and presses the corresponding quick brew button 81, the capsule dispenser 10 can extract the capsule 100 with the corresponding default water volume and temperature, and dispense the beverage produced from the beverage nozzle 18.

[0029] In the example shown in Figure 6, in one embodiment, multiple quick brew buttons 81 correspond to different types of beverage indicators 92, each beverage indicator 92 being mounted on the surface of the housing 11 and positioned on one side of each quick brew button 81. Since the letters or patterns of three or more beverage indicators 92 are different from each other, the corresponding default water volume or default temperature for each quick brew button 81 is also different. When a user places different types of capsules 100 in the capsule storage tank 15 and presses the corresponding quick brew button 81, the capsule dispenser 10 can extract the capsule 100 with the corresponding default water volume and default temperature, and dispense the beverage produced from the beverage nozzle 18.

[0030] As shown in Figures 1 and 4, the multiple quick brew buttons 81 and power key 82 are installed on the same side of the housing 11. In one embodiment, the power key 82 is installed below the multiple quick brew buttons 81. In one embodiment, there is one power key 82 and four multiple quick brew buttons 81. However, the above is merely one specific embodiment of the present invention, and the number and arrangement of buttons in the capsule dispenser 10 according to the present invention are not limited to those shown in Figures 1 and 4. In this embodiment, the quick brew buttons 81 and power key 82 are mechanical buttons, however, the present invention is not limited thereto, and the quick brew buttons 81 and power key 82 may be touch-controlled buttons.

[0031] Furthermore, the display 83 is a light-emitting diode (LED), and the display 83 is installed on one side surface of the housing 11, and the display 83 is installed independently of the housing 11, and may be exposed to the outside of the surface of the housing 11, and is arranged to emit warning signals. For example, when the quick brew button 81 is pressed, the processor 71 of the capsule dispenser 10 controls the display 83 to flash, notifying the user to extract from the capsule 100 based on the setting parameters of the pressed quick brew button 81. In one embodiment, the processor 71 controls the display 83 to emit different types of warnings, such as a malfunction warning, a low water level warning, and a warning that the top lid 4 is not properly closed, by flashing with different colors, different frequencies, and different durations, but the present invention is not limited thereto.

[0032] In one embodiment, the number of displays 83 is the same as the total number of power keys 82 and multiple quick brew buttons 81, and these displays 83 are installed within the power keys 82 and multiple quick brew buttons 81, respectively. For example, if the capsule dispenser 10 has one power key 82 and four quick brew buttons 81, it simultaneously has five displays 83, and these five displays 83 are installed within the power keys 82 and multiple quick brew buttons 81, respectively. In this embodiment, since the power keys 82 and multiple quick brew buttons 81 are manufactured from transparent or translucent substrates, when a display 83 emits light, the light rays pass through the power keys 82 and multiple quick brew buttons 81, making them visible to the user.

[0033] In one embodiment, the number of displays 83 is the same as the total number of power keys 82 and multiple quick-brew buttons 81, and these displays 83 are positioned to surround the outer edges of the power keys 82 and multiple quick-brew buttons 81, respectively. In this embodiment, the power keys 82 and multiple quick-brew buttons 81 may be manufactured from substrates of any material. By surrounding the outer rings of the power keys 82 and multiple quick-brew buttons 81, the light emitted by the displays 83 can be directly observed by the user with the naked eye.

[0034] Figure 8 is a flowchart of the brew mechanism of a capsule extractor according to one embodiment of the present invention. Specifically, Figure 8 discloses a brew mechanism in which the capsule extractor 10 according to the present invention is used, and this brew mechanism is applied to the capsule extractor 10 shown in Figures 1 to 6.

[0035] In the example shown in Figure 8, first, the user starts the capsule dispenser 10 by pressing the power key 82 (see step S81). Next, the user places the capsule 100 into the capsule storage tank 15 and closes the lid 4, causing the capsule 100 to be punctured by the puncture needle 6, and one of the quick brew buttons 81 is pressed, causing extraction from the capsule 100 and the production of a beverage (see step S82). At this time, the processor 71 is triggered to control the pump 14 so that a predetermined amount of water flows to the heater 17 via the water supply pipe 13 (see step S83). Then, the processor 71 controls the heater 17 to heat the predetermined amount of water to a predetermined temperature (see step S84). Next, the predetermined amount of water heated to the predetermined temperature flows into the capsule storage tank 15, brewing the capsule 100 to produce a beverage (see step S85). Finally, the beverage flows out of the beverage nozzle 18 via the drain pipe 16 (see step S85).

[0036] As a result, each quick brew button 81 has a different corresponding default water volume or default temperature. When any one quick brew button 81 is pressed, it is possible to directly trigger the processor 71 to control the pump 14 to guide the corresponding default water volume through the water supply pipe 13 to the heater 17. The processor 71 controls the heater 17 to heat the default water volume to the corresponding default temperature, and the default water volume heated to the default temperature flows into the capsule storage tank 15 to brew the capsule 100 and produce the beverage. Finally, the beverage flows out of the beverage nozzle 18 through the drain pipe 16, and the user can obtain the beverage by simply pressing any one quick brew button 81. This eliminates the conventional step of first selecting and pressing the required flow rate key and the required heating temperature key before pressing the beverage production key, preventing situations where the brew flow rate and heating temperature settings are forgotten or incorrect settings are entered, and achieving the effect of quick brewing beverages by simply pressing the quick brew button 81.

[0037] Although embodiments of the present invention have been described in detail above with reference to the drawings, the specific configuration is not limited to these embodiments, and various forms can be implemented without departing from the spirit of the invention. [Explanation of Symbols]
