When the pressurizing plate 872 presses the coffee capsule Cs as described above, the coffee capsule holder 851 and the coffee capsule Cs are pressed against the holder inner surface 851b of the moving slide 851 by a pressing force, The coffee capsule Cs is pushed slightly downward (for example, about 4 mm) downward by the support cushion 878a of the pressurizing pedestal 878, which is in contact with the bottom of the coffee capsule Cs, A hole is formed in the bottom surface of the body.

As a result, the coffee ground liquid extracted by the hot water supplied into the coffee capsule Cs falls through the through-hole 878b of the pressure pedestal 878 into the free fall state through the coffee ground liquid discharge hole 805, And the coffee stock solution extracted with the prepared paper cup (C) is contained.

When the pressure cover member 873 and the pressure plate 872 are lowered as described above, the upward / downward detection plate 877 and the upward / downward movement detection belt 877a integrally fixed to the upper surface of the pressure cover member 873, Down sensor 879, which is in contact with the end of the descending ascending / descending detection belt 877a, detects the descending state (i.e., the descending position).

In accordance with the detected signal, the control unit finely controls the lowering position of the pressure plate 872 and controls the pressing force.

Then, when the extraction operation as described above operates for a predetermined time and the extraction of the coffee concentrate is completed, the coffee concentrate is extracted and the collection work for disposing the remaining waste coffee capsule Cs1 is performed.

That is, as shown in FIG. 14, after the extraction of the coffee liquid is completed, the moving slide 851 is moved horizontally toward the coffee capsule stacking unit 800 in accordance with the control signal of the control unit. At this time, The waste coffee capsule Cs1 is moved in a state where the waste coffee capsule Cs1 is seated in the coffee capsule holder 852 of the coffee cup holder 851.

19, the contact plate 851e of the guide boss 851d provided on the moving slide 851 and the contact plate 851e of the sensing portion 860 of the second position The detection sensor 862 senses the movement position (i.e., the alignment position) of the movement slide 851 passing in front of the waste coffee capsule rejection 880, which is the predetermined alignment position, and sends a detection signal to the control unit .

Accordingly, the control signal of the control unit set in advance in accordance with the input sensed signal is output to stop the driving of the reciprocating feed motor 854, so that the horizontal movement of the moving slide 851 is transmitted to the capsule receptacle And stops in a precisely aligned state in front of the pipe 881.

As a result, the waste coffee capsule Cs1 seated in the coffee capsule holder 852 of the moving slide 851 is lifted upright from the bottom of the mounting plate 801 to the upper surface of the lifting and lowering bar 885, It is located in the room.

At the same time, the collection of the waste coffee capsule Cs1 is performed in the waste coffee capsule rejection 880. [

First, the control unit outputs a drive control signal for driving the pushing drive motor 882, and thereby the pushing drive motor 882 is driven.

When the rod driving motor 882 is driven as described above, the rotational force of the rod driving motor 882 is transmitted to the rod cam 884, and the rotational motion of the rod driving motor 882 is rectilinearly And moves up and down the lifting and lowering rod 885 connected to the load cam 884 while converting it into motion.

When the lifting and lowering push rod 885 is raised and lowered as described above, the lifting and lowering push rod 885 is guided by the guide bracket 887 and pushes the waste coffee capsule Cs1 firmly against the bottom face.

Accordingly, the waste coffee capsule Cs1 is separated from the coffee capsule holder 852, and then the coffee beans are poured into the waste coffee capsule inlet 808 of the pipe 881 through the capsule receptacle located at the front of the coffee capsule holder 852, Cs1 is discharged into the capsule receptacle through the inner passage of the pipe 881 and dropped through the waste coffee capsule outlet 807 to the lower side of the mounting plate 801 so as to be collected in a previously prepared receptacle (not shown) do.

At this time, the drive control according to the ascending / descending movement of the ascending / descending rod 885 detects the ascending / descending state of the pushing position sensor 886 which contacts the load cam 884 in accordance with the displacement of the rod cam 884, And a control unit receiving the detection signal.

When the collection of the waste coffee capsule Cs1 is completed, the moving slide 851 moves horizontally toward the coffee capsule loading part 800 as shown in FIG. 5 under the control of the controller, And the coffee capsule Cs supplied from the coffee maker 800 can be moved.

As described above, in the capsule bean coffee machine according to the present invention, coffee beans Cs loaded on the coffee capsule loading unit 800 are transferred according to the user's coffee beans purchase signal to extract the coffee bean liquid, And automatically performs the sequential operation process of collecting the data repeatedly and automatically.

Meanwhile, according to various modified embodiments of the present invention, the coffee capsule can carry out various modifications of the reciprocating transporting means 853 of the transfer section 850.

For example, as shown in Fig. 15, it is also possible to provide a reciprocating conveying means 853 composed of a rack 857 and a pinion 857a for reciprocating the conveying slide 851 horizontally.

That is, the reciprocating conveying means 853 includes a reciprocating conveying motor 854 provided on a supporting block 857b integrally formed on the bottom surface of the moving slide 851, and a reciprocating conveying motor 854 connected to the reciprocating conveying motor 854, And a rack 857 disposed on the upper surface of the mounting plate 801 and engaged with the pinion 857a to guide the reciprocating horizontal transport of the transporting slide 851. [

Accordingly, the pinion 857a is moved along the rack 857 through the gear drive under the driving force of the reciprocating feed motor 854, so that the reciprocating horizontal movement of the moving slide 851 can be performed precisely and stably .

Also, as shown in FIG. 16, according to another modified embodiment of the present invention, the reciprocating horizontal movement of the transfer slide 851 is implemented by belt driving.

That is, the reciprocating conveying means 853 is disposed between the conveying belt portion 858 coupled to the bottom surface of the moving slide 851 through the fixing portion 858c and the conveying belt portion 858 so as to face each other A drive pulley portion 858a and a driven pulley portion 858b for transmitting a driving force required for reciprocating horizontal movement of the conveyance belt portion 858 and a reciprocating conveying motor 858b connected to the drive pulley portion 858a so as to provide a driving force, (854).

At this time, it is preferable that the conveying belt part 858 employs a timing belt type so as to secure a precise and stable conveying distance of the moving slide 851, but the present invention is not limited thereto, and a chain, a flat belt, It is also possible to adopt the same known conveying means.

When the conveyance belt portion 858 is employed as a timing belt, it is natural that the drive pulley portion 858a and the driven pulley portion 858b are formed in a gear shape, respectively.

The driving pulley portion 858a disposed at one side of the conveyance belt portion 858 receives the driving force of the reciprocating conveyance motor 854 and drives the conveyance belt portion 858 with the driven pulley portion 858b through belt driving, The moving slide 851 connected to the conveyor belt portion 858 by the fixing portion 858c can perform reciprocating horizontal movement precisely and stably.

17, according to another modified embodiment of the present invention, the reciprocating horizontal movement of the transporting slide 851 may be realized by driving the piston by a cylinder.

That is, the reciprocating transfer means 853 comprises a cylinder portion 859 horizontally disposed on one side of the moving slide 851 and connected to the guide boss 851d of the moving slide 851 with a piston shaft 859a .

The cylinder portion 859 preferably uses an electric cylinder, but not limited thereto, a pneumatic cylinder or a hydraulic cylinder may be used.

At this time, the cylinder 859 is preferably fixed to the side mounting plate 803.

The present invention is not limited thereto, The piston shaft 859a is connected and fixed to a separate fixed block (not shown) formed integrally with the bottom surface of the moving slide 851 rather than the guide boss 851d in a state of being horizontally arranged on the bottom surface of the slide 851. [ And simple design changes can be made.

Accordingly, as the piston shaft 859a of the cylinder portion 859 is expanded and contracted through piston driving, the moving slide 851 can reciprocate horizontally.

The piston driving method using the cylinder part 859 may be performed by providing a driving force required for reciprocating horizontal movement of the moving slide 851 and operating the helical rotary motion by the feeding screw shaft 855, The operating noise can be minimized relative to the gear system using the rack 857 and the pinion 857a or the belt system using the conveyance belt unit 858 such as the timing belt, It has the advantage of being implemented very quickly.

Particularly, a gear system using the rack 857 and the pinion 857a or a belt system using a conveyance belt unit 858 such as a timing belt is also advantageous compared with a spiral rotation system using the conveyance screw shaft 855. [ It is possible to relatively quickly implement the moving speed of the second lens 851.

Fig. 24 is a state diagram showing a state of collecting waste coffee capsules according to another embodiment of the present invention. Fig.

24, the waste coffee capsule rejection unit 880 is disposed at one side of the coffee capsule loading unit 800 to extract the coffee raw material liquid from the coffee liquid extracting unit 870 and remove the remaining waste coffee capsule Cs1 The capsule lifting mechanism 880a collects the capsule lifting mechanism 880a so that the capsule lifting rod 885b of the capsule lifting mechanism 880a rotates the motor shaft pinion 885aa formed on the motor shaft 885a of the motor 882, A motor 882a formed on a guide blade plate 881a having a shape that is extended from the upper waste coffee capsule input port 808 by lifting the waste coffee capsule Cs1 onto the capsule seating end 885d by a cap 885bb, The rotation of the rotating blade 882c formed on the motor shaft 882b causes the waste coffee capsule Cs1 to be blown toward the pipe 881 by the capsule receptacle 88 and falls freely through the pipe 881 to the capsule receptacle, Cs1).

The drop prevention plate 881b prevents the waste coffee capsule Cs1 from being dropped directly in front of the waste coffee capsule inlet 808 in a state where the waste coffee capsule Cs1 can not be inserted into the waste coffee capsule inlet 808, Cs1 can be smoothly introduced into the waste coffee capsule input port 808 along the inclined surface of the drop prevention plate 881b.

Next, a method of placing the capsule Cs on the capsule holder 852 will be described.

26 (a) and 26 (b) are perspective views showing a state in which the capsule of the present invention is seated on the capsule holder, and FIG. 26 FIG. 26 (b) is a perspective view showing a state in which the capsule is lifted up by the capsule lifting mechanism 880a and is seated, and FIG. 27 (a) Fig. 27 (a) is a perspective view showing a state in which a capsule or other product is seated in a capsule holder, and Fig. 27 (b) is a perspective view in a state of being seated in a product of other company.

25, the capsule Cs is dropped from the coffee capsule cartridge 810 of the capsule mounting part 800 through the coffee capsule outlet 831 in the capsule holder 852 formed in the capsule transferring part 850 It can be seen that the capsule Cs is torn due to the speed of the moving slide 851 and is obliquely seated on the capsule holder 852 according to most experiments.

26 (a) and 26 (b), when the capsule is seated in the capsule holder, the capsule lifting mechanism 880a formed at the lower portion thereof causes the capsule lifting rod 885b to move in the direction The capsule Cs is lifted above the capsule seating end 885d and the capsule seating adjustment cap 885e by the motor shaft pinion 885aa and the capsule lifting bail 885bb formed on the motor shaft 885a, The capsule is placed on the capsule seating adjustment cap 885e and eventually is completely inserted into the capsule seating portion 852. The coffee slide 801 is then moved by the coffee stock solution extracting unit 870 In the direction of the arrow.

The lower bottom plate 890a of the capsule is seated by the side wall 885f formed at the edge of the capsule seating adjustment cap 885e when the capsule lifting mechanism 880a raises and lowers the capsule bottom, 27 (b) shows that, in the case of a product manufactured by a third party, the bottom surface of the cap is slightly smaller than the bottom surface of the capsule positioning adjustment cap 885e, Even if the lower bottom plate 890ba is formed as a bottom inclined plate 890bb inclined with respect to the side plate 890bc of the capsule while the capsule bottom plate 890ba is raised and lowered by the capsule lifting mechanism 880a, The bottom plate swash plate 890ba of the capsule is seated by the side wall of the capsule seating adjustment cap 885e and the bottom plate 890bb which is the bottom of the capsule bottom seat 890bb is fitted to the bottom of the capsule seating adjustment cap 885e having the wide "U" It shows that it is resting naturally.

Therefore, in order to seat the capsule, the capsule positioning adjustment cap 885e of the present invention plays an important role as a pre-stage in which the capsule is completely inserted into the capsule placement portion 852. [

Next, a mechanism for preventing the cooling of the coffee bean stock solution will be described.

28 is a perspective view illustrating a coffee transfer lake in which the undiluted solution of the capsule of the present invention is away from the pressure pedestal.

In general, when the source of the coffee bean is placed directly below the paper cup, the coffee is not cooled down. However, if the outlet is separated from the paper cup by design, if the temperature is below freezing in winter, Because the ambient temperature is low, it is difficult to eat warm coffee beans, but rather to eat coffee beans that have cooled down.

In order to prevent this, according to the present invention, a presser foot screw portion 8781 is formed at the lower portion of the pressure pedestal 878, and a lake connecting cap 8782 connecting the coffee transferring lake 8784 is installed. A lake connection thread portion 8785 of the coffee transfer lake 8784 is formed in the lower portion of the coffee transfer lake 8784 and a heating wire 8786a is formed around the coffee transfer lake 8784, So that the coffee transferring lake 8784 is heated.

It is preferable that the heating temperature is usually about 90 degrees, and the material of the heating wire is better when the far infrared rays are emitted or there is no risk of fire.

Further, in the case of a coffee or beverage dispenser of a general vending machine by such a temperature raising mechanism, even when the beverage discharge passage is designed by the above-mentioned heating wire, it is possible to warm up to a far higher degree or to obtain sterilizing effect by the emission of far infrared rays.

In the case of the summer season, if the cooling wire is used, a cool drink can be consumed even if the amount of ice is not large.

Next, a description will be given of a state in which the coffee raw material extracting section senses the opening sound by the supporting point 878a of the pressing pedestal by means of the memory element and generates a signal indicating whether or not it is pressurized.

29 (a) and 29 (b) are perspective views for explaining a sound in which the capsule raw liquid extracting part of the present invention is opened by the support cushion 878a of the pressure pedal, FIG. 30 is a perspective view showing the sound- Fig.

29 (a) shows the moment when the capsule Cs is placed on the upper part of the pressing pedestal 878 of the capsule, FIG. 29 (b) shows the moment when the hot water is pressed into the capsule, The hole forming thin plate 890d of the circular protrusion 890b formed in the capsule lower bottom plate 890a is peeled off by the notch 890c at the tip 878a.

As shown in the figure, a silicon sealing rubber made of a silicone material is coupled in the form of a rim around the opening blade 872a on the bottom surface of the pressure plate 872. The silicone sealing rubber 872c The hot water is prevented from leaking out due to the silicon hermetically sealed portion 872c when the hot water is supplied to the bottom surface of the pressure plate 872 and pressure is applied thereto.

Here, the unillustrated reference numeral 878c is a sealing edge for sealing the lower surface of the capsule.

[ And the guide rails 442a and 442b are provided on the side plate 443 attached to the case body to allow the upper and lower operations to be performed, And a motor 446 and a reduction gear 447 can be used for the up and down operation.

For smooth operation of the elevating member 440, guide grooves 445 may be formed on both side portions of the elevating member using the side plate 443 so as to be vertically moved.

Accordingly, as the lifting member 440 descends, the capsule Cs is seated on the pressing pedestal 878, and the through-hole forming plate 890d is peeled off by the receiving touch 878a, And the sound memory alloy element 879a that senses the sound causes the sound to be memorized. When the sound is heard, the driving of the motor is stopped to stop the lifting member 440 descending.

Of course, at this time, the lifting member 440 can be raised up to about 2 mm for smooth descent of the coffee liquid.

Thereafter, after the pressing operation of the capsule is performed for a predetermined time, the elevating member 440 rises again, so that the pressing operation is completed once, and the moving slide 851 can move.

That is, the capsule Cs is mounted on the upper portion of the pressing pedestal 878 of the capsule, and the circular protrusion 890b formed on the capsule lower bottom plate 890a is fixed to the supporting point 878a of the pressing pedestal 878, The sound-storage alloy element 879a is operated by the sound of being peeled off by the notch 890c and the lowering of the pressure plate 872 is stopped.

The rotating force of the up-down motor 875 is transmitted to the up-down descent shaft 874 through the gears 876a and 876b in the up-down gear box 876, And the forward / reverse rotation of the up / down motor 875 is controlled through a control signal of a control unit (not shown).

The sound storage alloy element 879a itself is a known technology and the moving part of the sound storage alloy element 879a is connected to the rising and falling detection plate 877 connected to the pressure cover member 873 When the sound is sensed at a certain point of time, the sound is generated when the opening formed on the bottom of the capsule is opened when the present invention is applied to the present invention. And stopping the operation).

In addition, when the sound of the capsule is not generated, the bottom of the capsule is not pierced, and it is effective to make the program to be processed badly, and when the capsule is bad and the operation is impossible, There is a very useful structure.

While the present invention has been particularly shown and described with reference to exemplary embodiments thereof, it is to be understood that the invention is not limited to the disclosed exemplary embodiments, but, on the contrary, It will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes in form and details may be made therein without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention as defined by the appended claims.
