The terminology used in the description of the invention herein is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to be limiting of the invention. As used herein, the term "and/or" includes any and all combinations of one or more of the associated listed items.
Referring to fig. 1, the present invention provides an upright capsule coffee maker 10 and a capsule coffee brewing structure 200 thereof, wherein the upright capsule coffee maker 10 includes a housing 100 and the capsule coffee brewing structure 200.
The casing 100 is a strip shape and mainly plays a role of fixing and supporting. Generally, the casing 100 is made of a material with high thermal stability and high strength, such as ABS material and stainless steel, so that the casing 100 has high bearing capacity and thermal stability.
The capsule coffee brewing structure 200 is received and mounted on the housing 100. The capsule coffee brewing structure 200, which is the most central part of the upright type capsule coffee maker 10, is a structure for injecting high-pressure hot water into a coffee capsule and brewing the coffee capsule. Accordingly, the capsule coffee brewing structure 200 mainly plays a brewing role.
Referring to fig. 2 and 3 together, the coffee brewing structure 200 of the preferred embodiment of the present invention includes a brewing frame 210, a brew head assembly 220 and an operating assembly 230.
The brew carriage 210 is an elongated hollow structure. The brew carriage 210 is formed with a piston chamber 211 and a receiving chamber 212 communicating with each other in the longitudinal direction thereof. The sidewall of the piston chamber 211 distal from the end of the receiving chamber 212 is provided with a support point location 213. The brew bracket 210 is primarily for supporting and securing purposes. The receiving cavity 212 is mainly used for placing coffee capsules, so the receiving cavity 212 is a place for brewing coffee. The brew bracket 210 is primarily made of a stronger material such as stainless steel, engineering plastic, etc. to provide the brew bracket 210 with a greater load bearing capacity.
In the vertical type capsule coffee maker 10, the brewing holder 210 is received and mounted on the cabinet 100. Accordingly, the brewing carriage 210 is mounted to the housing 100 to achieve the mounting of the capsule coffee brewing structure 200 to the housing 100.
The brew head assembly 220 includes a support frame 221, a nozzle 222 fixed to the support frame 221, and a drive member 223 protruding from a surface of the support frame 221. The support frame 221 is received in the piston cavity 211 and is slidable along the length of the brewing carriage 210 until the nozzle 222 protrudes into the receiving cavity 212. The drive member 223 extends from the side wall of the brew bracket 210. To reduce wear of the support frame 221, the support frame 221 is typically made of the same material as the brew holder 210.
Specifically, in the present embodiment, the supporting frame 221 has a water inlet channel, and the nozzle 222 is provided with a water outlet communicated with the accommodating cavity 212 and the water inlet channel. Accordingly, the brew head assembly 220 is primarily used to inject high pressure hot water into the coffee capsule. When the capsule coffee brewing structure 200 needs to brew coffee, the supporting frame 221 slides in the piston cavity 211 to drive the nozzle 222 to move toward the receiving cavity 212 until the nozzle 222 pierces the coffee capsule placed in the receiving cavity 212 and injects high-pressure hot water into the coffee capsule through the water outlet of the nozzle 222, so as to brew the coffee of the capsule coffee brewing structure 200.
Referring to fig. 4, in the present embodiment, the side wall of the piston cavity 211 is provided with a sliding slot 215 along the length direction of the brewing frame 210, and the side wall of the supporting frame 221 is provided with a sliding rail 2211 matching with the sliding slot 215. The slide rail 2211 is slidably installed in the slide slot 215 to allow the support frame 221 to slide more smoothly in the piston cavity 211.
Referring to fig. 5 to 7, the operating assembly 230 includes a hand piece 231 and a guiding piece 232 linked with the hand piece 231. A guide 2321 is provided at one side of the guide 232. The operating member 230 is rotatably mounted to the support point 213, and the driving member 223 is slidably mounted to the guide 2321.
The hand piece 231 is primarily intended to be grasped by a human hand and provides a force to the operating assembly 230 to rotate the operating assembly 230 relative to the support point 213. In the present embodiment, the hand piece 231 and the guiding piece 232 are rotatable relative to the supporting point 213. Thus, the guide 232 rotates to slidably move the drive member 223 along the length of the brew bracket 210. The guide 2321 may be a guide rail, a guide groove, or a guide hole. When the guide 2321 is a guide rail, a groove matched with the guide rail is formed at the end of the driving member 223, which is far away from the supporting frame 221.
Further, in this embodiment, the brew head assembly 220 further comprises a drive shaft 224. The driving shaft 224 is inserted through and fixed to the support frame 221 to form a driving member 223 at a surface of the support frame 221. The guide 2321 is an arc-shaped guide groove. An end of the driving shaft 224 remote from the support frame 221 is slidably received in the guide groove. Therefore, even if the driving member 223 is worn to some extent after a long time use, since one end of the driving member 223 is received in the guide groove, that is, the driving member 223 is inserted into the guide groove, the driving member 223 is less likely to be separated from the guide groove, and the reliability of the capsule coffee brewing structure 200 is high.
The kinetic energy transfer process of the capsule coffee brewing structure 200 is: the hand piece 231 rotates relative to the support location 213 to rotate the guide 2321 relative to the support location 213, and the rotating guide 2321 causes the driving member 223 to slide along the length of the brew carriage 210.
Referring to FIG. 3 again, in the present embodiment, the side wall of the brewing frame 210 is provided with a through hole 214 along the length thereof, which is elongated and is in communication with the piston chamber 211. The driving shaft 224 is slidably disposed through the elongated through hole 214. The support frame 210 and the guide 232 may be coupled as long as the end of the driving shaft 224 remote from the support frame 210 passes through the elongated through hole 214. Therefore, the arrangement of the strip-shaped through hole 214 makes the installation of the driving shaft 224 more convenient and faster, and further makes the assembly of the capsule coffee brewing structure 200 more convenient and faster.
Furthermore, in the present embodiment, there are two through holes 214. The two guide members 232 are located on opposite sides of the brew bracket 210. The two elongated through holes 214 are oppositely disposed. Both ends of the driving shaft 224 protrude from the surface of the support frame 221 to form two driving pieces 223. Therefore, the two guiding members 232 are arranged, so that the stress of the supporting frame 221 is more balanced, the probability of the problems of water leakage, unbalanced brewing pressure, unstable brewed coffee quality and the like of the capsule coffee brewing structure 200 is further reduced, the reliability of the capsule coffee brewing structure 200 is further improved, and the reliability of the vertical type capsule coffee machine 10 is higher.
Further, in the present embodiment, the operating assembly 230 further includes a pin 234. The pin 234 is inserted through and fixed to the handle 231 and the guide 232. The pin 234 is a standard component, so the manufacturing cost is low. Therefore, the pin 234 not only reduces the manufacturing cost of the operating assembly 230, but also facilitates the installation of the hand piece 231 and the guide piece 232.
It should be noted that the structure between the hand piece 231 and the guiding piece 232 is not limited to the structure fixedly connected by other auxiliary pieces such as the pin 234. For example, referring to fig. 8, in another embodiment, the handle 231 and the guiding element 232 are integrally formed. The integral molding is a one-step molding process, such as casting, injection molding, etc. Therefore, the structure that the hand piece 231 and the guide piece 232 are integrally formed not only simplifies the processing of the hand piece 231 and the guide piece 232, but also makes the connection between the hand piece 231 and the guide piece 232 firmer, and further makes the structure of the operating assembly 230 firmer.
Referring to fig. 9, in a further embodiment, the handle 231 is a ring-shaped handle. The ring handle is rotatably mounted at both ends to the support points 213. The annular handle is a structure through which fingers can pass and can be tightly held when in use, so that the condition that the operation assembly 230 is in invalid operation due to the reasons of slippery hands, untight holding and the like in the use process can be avoided. When the capsule coffee brewing structure 200 is required to brew coffee, the ring-shaped handle is pulled to complete the rotation of the operating assembly 230 relative to the support points 213.
It should be noted that the hand piece 231 is not limited to a ring-shaped handle. For example, referring to fig. 8, in another embodiment, the hand piece 231 is a pressure plate. One end of the pressure plate is rotatably mounted at the support location 213. The pressing plate has a plate-like structure, and when the capsule coffee brewing structure 200 requires coffee brewing, one end of the pressing plate away from the supporting point 213 is pressed to rotate the operating assembly 230 relative to the supporting point 213.
Referring to fig. 10 and fig. 11, the operating element 230 rotates to drive the driving element 223 to slide along the guiding portion 2321 and drive the supporting frame 221 to slide along the piston cavity 211. Specifically, the capsule coffee brewing structure 200 operates by: firstly, the hand piece 231 is pressed or pulled, so that the guide piece 232 drives the guide part 2321 to rotate relative to the supporting point 213; the rotating guiding portion 2321 drives the driving member 223 to drive the supporting frame 221 to slide toward or away from the receiving cavity 212 until the nozzle 222 is driven by the supporting frame 221 to pierce the coffee capsule or to be away from the coffee capsule, so as to complete the closing or opening of the capsule coffee brewing structure 200.
Since the operating assembly 230 can directly transmit the kinetic energy to the driving member 223 protruded from the surface of the support frame 221. Therefore, the arrangement of the operation assembly 230 enables the capsule coffee brewing structure 200 to realize direct transmission of kinetic energy, effectively avoids the situation that the stress of the supporting frame 210 is unbalanced due to the mutual staggering of a plurality of fulcrums arranged in the connecting rod assembly in the prior art, greatly reduces the probability of the occurrence of the situations of water leakage, unbalanced brewing pressure, unstable brewed coffee quality and the like of the capsule coffee brewing structure 200, and has higher reliability of the capsule coffee brewing structure 200.
Referring to fig. 10 and 11 again, in the present embodiment, the operating assembly 230 further includes a holding member 233 linked with the hand-held member 231. When the supporting frame 221 slides towards the receiving cavity 212, the holding member 231 drives the abutting member 233 to rotate until one end of the abutting member 233 abuts against one end of the supporting frame 221 away from the receiving cavity 212.
Therefore, when the nozzle 222 extends into the receiving cavity 212 and pierces the coffee capsule, the end of the holding member 233 away from the supporting point 213 is held against the supporting frame 221. The capsule coffee brewing structure 200 requires high pressure hot water to be injected into the coffee capsule through the nozzle 222 prior to brewing coffee. During the water injection, the pressure in the coffee capsule will continue to increase. At this point, it is highly likely that the nozzle 222 is pushed away from the coffee capsule by the pressure in the coffee capsule, thereby causing a failure to fill the coffee capsule with water. Therefore, when the nozzle 222 pierces the coffee capsule, the abutting member 233 is disposed to abut against the supporting frame 221, so that the situation that the nozzle 222 leaves the coffee capsule due to the over-high pressure in the coffee capsule, and the water injection failure of the coffee capsule is effectively avoided. Therefore, the holding member 233 mainly plays a role of limiting. Therefore, the arrangement of the abutting member 233 can effectively improve the reliability of the capsule coffee brewing structure 200.
Further, in the present embodiment, the holding member 233 is fixedly connected to the hand-held member 233 through the pin 234. Therefore, the pin 234 not only reduces the manufacturing cost of the operating assembly 230, but also effectively ensures the linkage between the holding member 233 and the hand-held member 231.
It should be noted that the connection manner between the holding member 233 and the hand-held member 231 is not limited to the fixed connection via the pin 234 or other auxiliary members. For example, in another embodiment, the holding member 233 and the hand piece 231 are integrally formed. The integral molding is a one-time molding process. Therefore, the structure that the holding member 231 and the abutting member 233 are integrally formed not only simplifies the processing of the holding member 231 and the abutting member 233, but also makes the connection between the holding member 231 and the abutting member 233 firmer, and further makes the structure of the operating assembly 230 firmer.
Referring again to fig. 2, in the present embodiment, the capsule coffee brewing structure 200 further includes a capsule mounting assembly 240. The capsule mounting assembly 240 includes a capsule seat 241 having a capsule cartridge 2411. The capsule holder 241 is received in the receiving cavity 212 and communicates the capsule chamber 2411 with the piston cavity 211. The capsule cabin 2411 is used for placing coffee capsules. Specifically, in this embodiment, the shape of the inner wall of the capsule chamber 2411 matches the shape of the outer wall of the coffee capsule. Therefore, the capsule seat 241 is arranged to effectively ensure that the placement position of each coffee capsule in the containing cavity 212 is the same, so that the quality of the coffee brewed by the capsule coffee brewing structure 200 is stable, and the reliability of the capsule coffee brewing structure 200 is higher.
Referring to fig. 10 and 11 again, in the present embodiment, the capsule mounting assembly 240 further includes a capsule holder 242 having a receiving cavity 2421 and a spike 243. The capsule seat 241 is accommodated in the accommodating cavity 2421. The capsule holder 242 is slidably disposed in the receiving cavity 212, and one end of the capsule holder 242 protrudes from a sidewall of the brewing support 210. The capsule holder 242 is provided with a mounting hole 2422 communicating with the accommodating chamber 2421, and the spike 243 is mounted to the mounting hole 2422. One end of the spike extends into the receiving cavity 212.
The process of placing or taking out the coffee capsule comprises the following steps: firstly, the capsule bracket 242 is pulled out to drive the capsule seat 241 to move in the accommodating cavity 212 until the capsule cabin 2421 is opened; after placing or removing the coffee capsule, the capsule holder 242 is pushed back into the housing 212. Accordingly, the capsule holder 242 facilitates the placement and removal of the coffee capsule, and thus facilitates the use of the capsule coffee brewing structure 200.
In the present embodiment in particular, the spike 243 is provided with a coffee outflow opening communicating with the housing cavity 212. When the coffee capsule is filled with hot water under high pressure and brewing of coffee is completed, the outer wall of the coffee capsule is extended toward the spike member 243 by the water pressure until the spike member 243 punctures the coffee capsule, so that the brewed coffee in the coffee capsule flows out from the coffee outflow port. Thus, the spike 243 facilitates removal of brewed coffee from the capsule coffee brewing structure 200, and thus facilitates use of the upright capsule coffee machine 10.
Further, in the present embodiment, the capsule coffee brewing structure 200 further includes a sealing ring 250. The sealing ring 250 is installed at one end of the supporting frame 221 near the receiving cavity 212, and one side of the sealing ring 250 is in sealing contact with the edge of the capsule chamber 2411. When the nozzle 222 pierces the coffee capsule and injects water into the coffee capsule, the sealing ring 250 prevents a portion of the water in the nozzle 222 flowing out of the outer surface of the coffee capsule from leaking to other parts of the stand-up capsule coffee maker 10, which in turn affects the service life of the other parts. Therefore, the sealing ring 250 can effectively prevent the water leakage of the capsule coffee brewing structure 200, and effectively ensure the service life of the vertical capsule coffee machine 10.
When the upright type capsule coffee maker 10 and the capsule coffee brewing structure 200 thereof need to brew coffee, the operating assembly 230 rotates to drive the driving member 223 to slide along the guiding portion 2321 and drive the supporting frame 221 to slide along the piston cavity 211 until the nozzle 222 extends into the receiving cavity 212 and punctures a coffee capsule. Therefore, the operating unit 230 can directly transmit the kinetic energy to the driving member 223 protruded from the surface of the support frame 221. Therefore, the arrangement of the operation assembly 230 enables the capsule coffee brewing structure 200 to realize the direct transmission of kinetic energy, effectively avoids the situation that the stress of the supporting frame 221 is unbalanced due to the staggered pivot points arranged in the connecting rod assembly in the prior art, greatly reduces the probability of the situations that the capsule coffee brewing structure 200 leaks water, the brewing pressure is unbalanced, the quality of brewed coffee is unstable, and the like, enables the reliability of the capsule coffee brewing structure 200 to be higher, and enables the upright capsule coffee machine 10 to have higher reliability.
