The seasoning machine 100 may also include an automatic control module, which is connected to the touch device 3 to control the touch device 3 to open or close the discharge port 21 of the material storage box 2 . Through the automatic control module, it is convenient to control the opening or closing of the discharge port 21, and it is easy to realize accurate and effective control of material discharge and improve discharge accuracy.

Wherein, the seasoning machine 100 may include a manual control button; or the seasoning machine 100 may include an automatic control module; or the seasoning machine 100 may include a manual control button and an automatic control module.

The seasoning machine 100 according to the embodiment of the present invention includes at least two material storage boxes 2, each material storage box 2 is equipped with a valve 22, and the touch device 3 for opening the valve 22 is not arranged on the valve of the material storage box 2 22 on. The whole machine is provided with a touch device 3, which can open the valve 22 when the touch device 3 touches the valve 22, and the touch device 3 and the valve 22 of the material storage box 2 can move relatively, so that the touch device 3 can pass through the movement. To change its position, reach the purpose that any valve 22 can be opened. There is a material receiving cup 6 below the material discharge opening 21 of each material storage box 2 .

According to the condiment machine 100 of the embodiment of the present invention, the touch device 3 and each storage box 2 equipped with the valve 22 can move relative to each other to change their relative positions. The seasoning machine 100 according to the embodiment of the present invention has the following beneficial effects: First, the cost is reduced: the gravity of the material such as the seasoning is used to control the discharge by opening the valve 22, and the expensive discharge system can be omitted; the repeated part It is realized by changing the relative position of the touch device 3 and the valve 22, so that repeated parts are omitted, and the economy is more obvious when the number of storage boxes 2 is large. Second, reduce the volume: due to the omission of repeated parts, the volume is reduced.
