[0003] Existing beverage making machines typically use container assemblies to hold and mix beverage ingredients. However, traditional container assemblies have hard-to-clean corners that easily breed bacteria, affecting beverage hygiene and safety. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a new type of beverage making machine container assembly that can effectively solve the problem of cleaning these hard-to-clean corners. Summary of the Invention

[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to provide a material cylinder assembly, material cylinder structure, and beverage making machine to address the problem of cleaning dead zones in the material cylinder structure of beverage making machines.

[0005] A material cylinder assembly for a beverage making machine includes: a material cylinder body having a receiving cavity, the material cylinder body having an installation opening, a feed inlet, and a discharge outlet, the receiving cavity, the feed inlet, and the discharge outlet respectively communicating with the installation opening; a connecting plate detachably mounted on the material cylinder body and located at the installation opening, the connecting plate having a sealing ring fitting groove in its circumferential direction, the connecting plate having an installation notch communicating with the receiving cavity; and a sealing ring fitting to the sealing ring fitting groove, the outer side of the sealing ring abutting against the inner wall of the receiving cavity.

[0006] The first aspect of this application discloses a material cylinder assembly. The cylinder body has a receiving cavity, an inlet, and an outlet, enabling the storage, feeding, and discharging of beverage raw materials, providing a basic container for the beverage manufacturing process. The open installation design allows for precise alignment of the connecting plate, facilitating easy installation and removal, cleaning, and maintenance. The connecting plate has an installation notch communicating with the receiving cavity, allowing the cylinder assembly to be securely mounted as a single module on the beverage manufacturing machine. Simultaneously, it allows the mixing device of the beverage manufacturing machine to extend from the installation notch into the receiving cavity to mix the materials evenly. The detachable design of the connecting plate allows it to be separated from the cylinder body, enabling users to easily remove the connecting plate for thorough cleaning of the receiving cavity, avoiding cleaning dead zones. The disassembled connecting plate itself is also easy to clean, ensuring the hygiene of the entire cylinder assembly. The sealing ring precisely matches the sealing ring adapter groove on the connecting plate, ensuring the sealing reliability of the cylinder assembly. Furthermore, the design of the sealing ring and its matching groove facilitates easy disassembly for cleaning or replacement, preventing cleaning dead zones between the sealing ring and the connecting plate. The smooth contact design between the sealing ring and the barrel body further eliminates cleaning dead zones in the barrel assembly, allowing users to perform more thorough cleaning.

[0007] In one embodiment, the barrel body is provided with a mounting groove located at the mounting opening, and the connecting plate is adapted to the mounting groove. This mounting groove design on the barrel body provides precise positioning for the assembly of the connecting plate and the barrel body, ensuring correct alignment, reducing operational difficulty, and improving assembly efficiency. The adaptation of the connecting plate to the mounting groove further enhances the sealing at the connection between the connecting plate and the barrel body, avoiding the risk of liquid leakage during use of the barrel assembly.

[0008] In one embodiment, a feed flap is also included. The barrel body has a feed groove that communicates with the feed inlet. The feed flap is disposed on the barrel body and located at the opening of the feed groove. By providing the feed flap, the user can easily add material to the barrel body by lifting the feed flap relative to the opening of the feed groove. The communication between the feed groove and the feed inlet allows material to flow directly into the barrel body. The feed flap design not only prevents dust and other contaminants from entering the barrel body, ensuring material hygiene, but also helps prevent accidental splashing of material within the barrel body, maintaining a clean working environment.

[0009] In one embodiment, the feed flap is provided with a first movable buckle and a second movable buckle, and the feed cylinder body is provided with a first movable groove and a second movable groove. The first movable groove and the second movable groove are located on the groove wall of the feed groove, and the first movable groove and the second movable groove are arranged opposite to each other. The first movable buckle and the second movable buckle are respectively adapted to the first movable groove and the second movable groove. By adapting the first movable buckle and the second movable groove to the first movable groove and the second movable groove respectively, a reliable movable connection between the feed flap and the feed cylinder body is ensured, preventing the feed flap from accidentally falling off during use. The feed flap can be flexibly flipped around the movable buckle, which facilitates the feeding operation, and the angle of the feed flap can be adjusted as needed. In addition, the connection structure of the movable buckle and the movable groove is simple, easy to clean and maintain, and ensures the hygiene of the feed cylinder assembly.

[0010] In one embodiment, the feed flap is movably connected to at least one edge of the feed trough, and the feed flap can form an angle with at least one edge of the feed trough. This structural design, where the feed flap is movably connected to at least one edge of the feed trough, allows the user to adjust the angle of the feed flap as needed, facilitating the smooth entry of materials into the feed cylinder. The feed flap can be closed when not in use to prevent accidental material splashing, ensuring a clean working environment, and also preventing foreign objects or contaminants from entering the feed trough, protecting the cleanliness and quality of the materials.

[0011] In one embodiment, at least a portion of the feed inlet is located on the wall of the feed trough, and the bottom of the feed trough is inclined towards the side wall where the feed inlet is located. This structural design, with the bottom of the feed trough inclined towards the side wall where the feed inlet is located, allows gravity to guide the material towards the feed inlet, reducing material retention within the feed trough and thus improving feeding efficiency. Furthermore, the design of at least a portion of the feed inlet being located on the wall of the feed trough prevents material from splashing out of the feed inlet when the user adds material. This design allows the user to safely add material without stopping the equipment, improving operational safety.

[0012] In one embodiment, the barrel body is provided with an arc-shaped baffle located on the side wall of the receiving cavity. The arc-shaped baffle has an arc-shaped transition section for guiding the fluid flow within the receiving cavity. By providing an arc-shaped baffle on the side wall of the receiving cavity, and by including the arc-shaped transition section, the design of the arc-shaped transition section can effectively guide the flow direction of the material within the receiving cavity, thereby making the material mixing within the receiving cavity more uniform. The arc-shaped baffle design can guide the material entering the receiving cavity to flow along a specific path, thereby improving the mixing efficiency of the material and making the material mixing more uniform.

[0013] A material cylinder structure includes: a frame; a locking assembly disposed on the frame; a stirring assembly disposed on the frame and adapted to a mounting notch; and a material cylinder assembly as described above, disposed on the frame, at least a portion of the material cylinder assembly being connected to the locking assembly, the locking assembly being used to control the connection and disassembly between the material cylinder assembly and the frame.

[0014] The second aspect of this application discloses a barrel structure. A frame serves as the supporting foundation for the entire barrel structure, providing a stable platform for the installation and operation of other components and ensuring the overall stability of the structure. A locking component enables a detachable connection between the barrel assembly and the frame. The locking component allows for convenient and quick control of the installation and disassembly of the barrel assembly, facilitating user disassembly for cleaning and ensuring material hygiene. The structural design of the mixing component, which adapts to the installation notch, ensures the stability and sealing of the installation between the barrel assembly and the mixing component. The mixing component agitates the material within the barrel assembly, ensuring uniform mixing and improving production efficiency and product quality.

[0015] In one embodiment, the barrel assembly has a first connecting portion and a second connecting portion, both of which are detachably connected to parts of the locking assembly. Connecting to the locking assembly through two connection points (the first and second connecting portions) improves the stability of the barrel assembly's connection to the frame compared to a single connection point. The detachable connection of the first and second connecting portions to the locking assembly makes the barrel assembly easier and quicker to assemble and disassemble, and also allows the entire barrel assembly to be completely removed for easy cleaning.

[0016] In one embodiment, the mixing cylinder assembly covers at least a portion of the stirring assembly, and the mixing cylinder assembly has a receiving cavity for containing material, with at least a portion of the stirring assembly located within the receiving cavity. By having at least a portion of the stirring assembly located within the receiving cavity, it can achieve sufficient contact with the material inside, resulting in efficient mixing and ensuring the uniformity and quality of the beverage production. Furthermore, the covering of the mixing cylinder assembly prevents operators from accidentally contacting the rotating parts of the stirring assembly, improving operational safety.

[0017] In one embodiment, a sealing assembly is further included. The frame has a mounting port, and the sealing assembly wraps around the edge of the mounting port. The stirring assembly passes through the mounting port, and at least a portion of the sealing assembly is sandwiched between the edge of the mounting port and the stirring assembly. By wrapping the sealing assembly around the edge of the mounting port and sandwiching it between the edge of the mounting port and the stirring assembly, material leakage from the connection between the stirring assembly and the frame is effectively prevented, improving the overall sealing performance of the barrel structure and ensuring stable operation of the equipment and a clean working environment.

[0018] In one embodiment, the sealing assembly is provided with an adapter groove, and at least a portion of the barrel assembly is adapted to the adapter groove. By providing an adapter groove on the sealing assembly and adapting at least a portion of the barrel assembly to the adapter groove, precise alignment and stable connection between the barrel assembly and the sealing assembly are achieved, allowing for a tight fit between the barrel assembly and the sealing assembly, further enhancing the sealing effect and effectively preventing material leakage. The adapter groove not only guides the alignment and installation of the barrel assembly to ensure rapid assembly of the barrel assembly with the whole machine, but also provides additional support for the barrel assembly, enhancing the connection strength and stability between the barrel assembly and the whole machine, and reducing shaking during operation.

[0019] A beverage making machine includes: a material cylinder structure as described above; a refrigeration device disposed on the material cylinder structure; and an automatic control module disposed on the material cylinder structure, wherein the refrigeration device is electrically connected to the automatic control module.

[0020] This application discloses a beverage making machine in its third aspect. By incorporating a refrigeration device, the beverage ingredients within the mixing drum structure are cooled, ensuring the taste and quality of the beverage.
