Referring to fig. 1 to 13, a beverage apparatus according to an embodiment of the present application includes a cup assembly 110 and a water outlet 120. The cup assembly 110 includes a cup 111 and a first coupler 112 disposed at the bottom of the cup 111. The first coupler 112 includes a first mating wall 112a and a plurality of first conductive members 112b. The first conductive elements 112b are disposed on the first abutting wall 112a at intervals. The water outlet seat 120 is provided with a second coupler 121. The second coupler 121 is provided with a plurality of second conductive elements 121a which are arranged in one-to-one correspondence with the first conductive elements 112b.

In the above cup assembly 110, since the plurality of first conductive members 112b are disposed on the first abutting wall 112a, a plurality of turns of the first conductive members are not required, and thus a larger area of the bottom wall is avoided. As shown in fig. 15a, 15b and 15c, a plurality of first conductive members 112b may be provided on one abutting wall 112 a.

Specifically, it is understood that the plurality of first conductive elements 112b includes a neutral conductive element, a live conductive element, a ground conductive element, two signal line conductive elements, and a standby conductive element. The standby conductive member may be in a non-use state without being electrically connected to any one of the wires such as the neutral wire, the live wire, the ground wire, the signal wire, etc. For example, if the neutral conductor, the live conductor, the ground conductor, and the signal conductor are damaged, the spare conductor may be used instead.

The cup 111 is provided with a heating element 117 for heating the liquid in the cup 111. It will be appreciated that the first coupler 112 and the second coupler 121 are configured to energize the heat generating component 117 such that the heat generating component 117 generates heat.

The first abutting wall 112a is annular.

The first coupler 112 is provided with a water outlet avoidance space 112c penetrating through the first coupler 112, the second coupler 121 is also provided with a water outlet avoidance space 112c penetrating through the second coupler 121, and when the cup body assembly 110 is installed on the water outlet seat 120 and the second coupler 121 is assembled with the first coupler 112 in place, the water outlet avoidance space 112c on the first coupler 112 is in butt joint with the water outlet avoidance space 112c on the second coupler 121 to jointly form a water outlet space for passing through liquid flowing out of the first water outlet 111 a.

The first docking wall 112a is disposed around the outlet water escape space 112c on the first coupler 112, that is, the first docking wall 112a is formed as a side wall of the outlet water escape space 112c on the first coupler 112. It should be noted that the water outlet seat 120 further includes a second water outlet pipe 128. When the cup assembly 110 is mounted to the water outlet seat 120, the second water outlet pipe 128 is inserted into the water outlet avoiding space 112c on the second coupler 121. The water in the cup 111 may flow out through the second outlet pipe 128. The outlet avoiding space 112c is used for passing the liquid flowing out from the first water outlet 111a, so as to achieve the purpose of avoiding.

The water outlet avoidance space 112c is arranged on the first coupler 112, so that the liquid flowing out of the first water outlet 111a and the first coupler 112 share the same space, the space at the bottom of the cup body assembly 110 is not required to be occupied outside the first coupler 112, the liquid flowing out of the first water outlet 111a is avoided, the utilization rate of the space at the bottom of the cup body assembly 110 is improved, and the area of the bottom of the cup body assembly 110 is reduced.

More specifically, the first abutting wall 112a has a circular ring shape. It is understood that in other embodiments, the first abutting wall 112a is not limited to be circular, but may be square ring-like, regular or irregular.

The outer side surface of the first butt joint wall 112a is provided with a plurality of conductive capacity accommodating grooves 112d which are sequentially arranged at intervals, and a plurality of first conductive pieces 112b are in one-to-one correspondence with a plurality of conductive accommodating grooves 112 d. The first conductive members 112b are located in the corresponding conductive accommodating grooves 112 d. On the one hand, the limit and the installation of the first conductive piece 112b can be conveniently realized through the conductive capacity placement groove 112 d; on the other hand, the short circuit phenomenon can be avoided by spacing the plurality of first conductive members 112b apart by the conductive capacity placement groove 112 d.

Specifically, the first conductive member 112b has a fan-ring cylindrical shape, so as to be in electrical contact with the second conductive member 121 a. It will be appreciated that in other embodiments, the first conductive member 112b is not limited to being in the shape of a sector ring cylinder, but may be in any other regular or irregular shape.

In the embodiment of the present application, the first conductive member 112b may be annular, as shown in fig. 4, besides being circumferentially disposed on the outer side of the first abutting wall 112a in a sector ring shape.

Fig. 16a to 19 exemplarily show partial cross-sectional views of a beverage apparatus provided by another embodiment.

As shown in fig. 18a, in some alternative embodiments, the first abutting wall 112a is annular, the first conductive members 112b are annular members with different inner diameters, and the axes of the first conductive members 112b are coincident with the axes of the first abutting wall 112 a.

In the embodiment shown in fig. 16a to 19, the number of first abutment walls 112a is at least one, compared to the corresponding embodiment of fig. 1 to 15 c. If the number of first docking walls 112a is plural, the plural means two or more. The inner diameters of the first abutting walls 112a are different, and the axes of the first abutting walls 112a overlap. The outlet avoidance space 112c of the first coupler 112a is defined by a first abutting wall 112a having the smallest inner diameter among the plurality of first abutting walls 112 a. That is, the first abutting wall 112a having the smallest inner diameter is formed as the outlet water escape space 112c on the first coupler 112 a.

For the ring, the axis of the first conductive member 112b is the center of the circle where the first conductive member 112b is located. For a rectangular ring, the axis of the first conductive member 112b is the intersection of two diagonal lines of the rectangle in which the first conductive member 112b is located.

Taking a ring as an example: the first butt-joint wall 112a is annular, the first conductive pieces 112b are annular pieces with the same circle center and different diameters, and the circle centers of the first conductive pieces 112b are coincident with the circle center of the circle where the first butt-joint wall 112a is located.

The first conductive member 112b may be mounted by at least one of: a first conductive member 112b is mounted on one side of a first mating wall 112 a; a first conductive member 112b is mounted on each of opposite sides of a first mating wall 112 a; the first coupler 112 further has slots (not shown) coaxial with the first butt-joint wall 112a and spaced apart from each other, and the first conductive member 112b is clamped or inserted into the slots.

The first conductive members 112b of the first coupler 112 of one drink apparatus may be respectively installed in the different manners described above. For example: as shown in fig. 18a, the number of the first conductive members 112B is five, the number of the first butt-joint walls 112a is three, and for distinction, the first butt-joint walls 112a (a), 112a (B) and 112a (C) are respectively denoted, wherein the first butt-joint wall 112a (B) is located between the first butt-joint wall 112a (a) and the first butt-joint wall 112a (C), and of the three first butt-joint walls 112a, the first butt-joint wall 112a (a) has the smallest inner diameter and the first butt-joint wall 112a (C) has the largest inner diameter. A receptacle (not shown) is provided between the first abutment wall 112a (a) and the first abutment wall 112a (B). A first conductive member 112B may be mounted on the inner side of the first butt-joint wall 112a (a), a first conductive member 112B may be mounted on each of opposite sides of the first butt-joint wall 112a (B), a first conductive member 112B may be mounted in the slot, and the first conductive member 112B mounted in the slot may be conductive on both sides due to no shielding on both sides. One first conductive member 112b is mounted on the inner side of the first abutting wall 112a (C), and thus, the mounting of five first conductive members 112b is achieved. It is to be understood that the mounting manner of the annular first conductive member 112b shown in fig. 18a is not limited to the above-listed embodiments, and other embodiments are also possible.

The first conductive member 112b is annular. It is understood that in other embodiments, the first conductive member 112b is not limited to be circular, but may be square, regular or irregular.

Referring to fig. 3, the bottom wall of the cup 111 is provided with a first water outlet 111a. The ratio of the area of the first water outlet 111a to the bottom area of the cup 111 is 0.1 to 0.5. Thus, the liquid in the cup 111 can be smoothly discharged.

The cup assembly 110 further includes a first water outlet pipe 116 disposed at the first water outlet 111a, and the first conductive member 112b is spaced from the first water outlet pipe 116, so as to reduce the risk of the first conductive member 112b being wetted.

The outlet avoiding space 112c of the first coupler 112 is used for passing through a first outlet pipe 116 communicated with the first outlet 111 a. The outlet avoiding space 112c on the second coupler 121 is used for passing through a second outlet pipe 128 communicated with the outlet pipe 116. The outlet avoidance space 112c on the second coupler may be coaxial with the outlet avoidance space 112c on the first coupler 112.

The liquid flowing out through the first water outlet 111a enters the first water outlet pipe 116, and then enters the second water outlet pipe 128 from the first water outlet pipe 116. Generally, to avoid the first water outlet 111a, the first water outlet 111a is spaced apart from the first coupler 112 to reduce the influence of the liquid on the first conductive member 112b, but this results in a larger diameter of the bottom of the cup assembly 110. In the embodiment of the present application, the water outlet avoidance space 112c is used to accommodate the first water outlet pipe 116 and the second water outlet pipe 128, so that the first water outlet pipe 116 and the first coupler 112 occupy the same space, which is beneficial to reducing the bottom area of the cup assembly 110. The inner walls of the water outlet avoidance space 112c on the first coupler 112 and the water outlet avoidance space 112c on the second coupler 121 are not contacted with liquid, the liquid is positioned in the first water outlet pipe 116 and the second water outlet pipe 128, and the first conductive piece 112b is not influenced by the water outlet avoidance space 112c arranged on the first coupler 112.

Referring to fig. 4, the first conductive members 112b are disposed around the outer side of the first butt-joint wall 112a at intervals, so that the first conductive members 112b are better spaced from the first water outlet pipe 116, and the risk of wetting of the first conductive members 112b is reduced.

In some alternative embodiments, in the projection along the axial direction of the cup 111, the projection of the first water outlet 111a is located within the projection range of the water outlet avoiding space 112c on the first coupler 112. The inner diameter of the first water outlet 111a may be smaller than or equal to the inner diameter of the outlet avoidance space 112c on the first coupler 112, and the inner diameter of at least a partial region of the first water outlet pipe 116 is smaller than the inner diameter of the outlet avoidance space 112c on the first coupler 112, so as to penetrate through the outlet avoidance space 112c on the first coupler 112.

In some alternative embodiments, the outlet avoidance space 112c on the first coupler 112 is coaxially distributed with the first outlet 111 a.

In some alternative embodiments, the outlet avoidance space 112c, the first outlet 111a, the first outlet 116, and the second outlet 128 of the first coupler 112 are coaxially distributed.

The water outlet seat 120 is detachably connected with the cup body assembly 110, so that on one hand, the cup body assembly 110 is convenient to detach, and the cup body 111 in the cup body assembly 110 is cleaned; on the other hand, after the cup body assembly 110 is detached from the water outlet seat 120, the power supply of the first coupler 112 is disconnected, so that the risk of short circuit is avoided; in yet another aspect, maintenance of the cup assembly 110 and the outlet seat 120 is also facilitated.

Referring to fig. 2, 5 and 18a, the cup assembly 110 is provided with at least one first locking portion 114, and the water outlet seat 120 is provided with at least one second locking portion 123; the first locking part 114 and the second locking part 123 are locked and connected to realize the locking of the cup assembly 110 and the water outlet seat 120.

Illustratively, if the number of first locking portions 114 is plural, the plurality of first locking portions 114 are circumferentially spaced along the cup assembly 110. The interval between every two adjacent first locking portions 114 may be the same.

Specifically, the first locking portion 114 and the second locking portion 123 are both engagement portions; the first locking portion 114 and the second locking portion 123 are snap-coupled. Of course, it is understood that in other embodiments, the first locking portion and the second locking portion are not limited to the engaging portion, and may be other lockable structures.

As shown in fig. 5, the first locking portion 114 includes a first circumferential limit portion 114a and a first longitudinal limit portion 114b. The second locking portion 123 includes a second circumferential limit portion 123a that mates with the first circumferential limit portion 114a, and a second longitudinal limit portion 123b that mates with the first longitudinal limit portion 114b.

In some embodiments, the cup assembly 110 is provided with a first circumferential positioning portion 115, and the water outlet seat 120 is provided with a second circumferential positioning portion 124 matching the first circumferential positioning portion 115. Therefore, when the cup body assembly 110 and the water outlet seat 120 are assembled, on one hand, the alignment of the cup body assembly 110 and the water outlet seat 120 can be realized relatively quickly, and the assembly speed of the cup body assembly 110 and the water outlet seat 120 is further improved; on the other hand, the first conductive element 112b and the corresponding second conductive element 121a can be precisely aligned, so that the phenomenon that electrical connection or short circuit cannot be realized due to incorrect alignment of the first conductive element 112b and the second conductive element 121a is avoided.

Specifically, the first circumferential positioning portion 115 is a positioning slot extending in a circumferential direction. The second positioning portion 124 is a positioning member that matches the positioning slot. The second circumferential positioning portion 124 is slidable in the circumferential direction within the first circumferential positioning portion 115. Of course, it should be understood that the structures of the first circumferential positioning portion 115 and the second circumferential positioning portion 124 are not limited thereto, and any structure that can achieve positioning, such as a wedge structure, may be used to achieve positioning of the cup assembly 110 and the outlet seat 120.

Fig. 15b and 15c exemplarily show cross-sectional views of the beverage apparatus, wherein the first locking part 114 and the second locking part 123 are assembled at D and the first longitudinal stop part 114b and the second longitudinal stop part 123b are assembled at E.

When the water outlet seat 120 is assembled with the cup body assembly 110, the first locking portion 114 of the cup body assembly 110 can be aligned with the second locking portion 123 of the water outlet seat 120, and at this time, as shown in fig. 15b, the cup body assembly 110 and the water outlet seat 120 are not assembled in place. Then, the water outlet base 120 is rotated along the circumferential direction of the water outlet base 120, and/or the cup assembly is rotated along the circumferential direction of the cup assembly 110, so that the first circumferential limiting portion 114a abuts against the second circumferential limiting portion 123a to prevent the water outlet base 120 and/or the cup assembly 110 from continuing to rotate, and the first longitudinal limiting portion 114b abuts against the second longitudinal limiting portion 123b to limit the relative movement between the water outlet base 120 and the cup assembly 110 along the longitudinal direction, at this time, the cup assembly 110 and the water outlet base 120 are assembled in place, as shown in fig. 15 c.

After the water outlet base 120 is assembled with the cup assembly 110, the water outlet base 120 is coaxial or substantially coaxial with the cup assembly 110, and the longitudinal direction may be understood as being axial. The cup assembly 110 and the outlet seat 120 are rotated in opposite directions.

After the first locking portion 114 of the cup assembly 110 is aligned with and contacts the second locking portion 123 of the water outlet seat 120, the first circumferential positioning portion 115 is also aligned with and contacts the second circumferential positioning portion 124, and when the water outlet seat 120 and/or the cup assembly 110 are rotated, the first circumferential positioning portion 115 is also rotated relative to the second circumferential positioning portion 124. If the first circumferential positioning portion 115 is a positioning slot extending along a circumferential direction, and the second circumferential positioning portion 124 is a positioning member matching the positioning slot, the positioning member is located at a different position of the positioning slot before and after the rotation of the water outlet seat 120 and/or the cup assembly 110.

Illustratively, as shown in fig. 2, a first circumferential location 115 may be provided on the first coupler 112, and as shown in fig. 5, a second circumferential location 124 may be provided on the second coupler 121.

When the cup assembly 110 and the water outlet seat 120 are assembled in place, it also means that the first coupler 112 and the second coupler 121 are assembled in place, and the first conductive member 112b and the corresponding second conductive member 121a achieve accurate alignment. When the cup assembly 110 and the water outlet seat 120 are not assembled in place, it means that the first coupler 112 and the second coupler 121 are not assembled in place, and precise alignment between the first conductive member 112b and the corresponding second conductive member 121a cannot be ensured.

It will be appreciated that for the beverage apparatus shown in fig. 2 to 11a, 11c, and 12 to 15c, since the plurality of first conductive members 112b are mounted on the same first docking wall 112b at intervals, in order to ensure that the first and second couplers 112, 121 are assembled in place, the first and second annular locating portions 115, 124 need to be provided in order for the first and second conductive members 112b to be aligned with the respective second conductive members 121 a. In the beverage apparatus shown in fig. 16a to 19, since the first conductive member 112b is annular, the first conductive member 112b is relatively easy to align with the corresponding second conductive member 121a when the first coupler 112 and/or the second coupler 121 are rotated, and thus the first annular positioning portion 115 and the second annular positioning portion 124 may not be provided in the beverage apparatus embodiments shown in fig. 11b, 11d, and 16a to 19.

The first circumferential positioning portion 115 and the second circumferential positioning portion 124 cooperate to realize preliminary positioning of the first conductive member 112b and the corresponding second conductive member 121a, and the cooperation of the first locking portion 114 and the second locking portion 123 can further improve positioning accuracy of the first conductive member 112b and the corresponding second conductive member 121 a.

Referring to fig. 6 to 8, the second conductive member 121a includes a coupling contact portion 121b to electrically contact the first conductive member 112 b. The second coupler 121 includes a butt joint body 121d. The abutting body 121d has an abutting groove 121e that mates with the first abutting wall 112 a. The bottom wall of the butt joint groove 121e is provided with first through holes 121f corresponding to the second conductive elements 121a one by one. The coupling contact portion 121b is inserted into the corresponding first via hole 121f, and is spaced from the sidewall of the first via hole 121f, so that water flowing into the docking groove 121e and located near the second conductive member 121a can fall through the first via hole 121f, so that water flow accumulation around the second conductive member 121a is avoided, and further a short circuit phenomenon is avoided.

It is understood that the groove wall of the docking groove 121e includes not only a bottom wall, but also an inner sidewall 121g and an outer sidewall of the docking groove 121e which are spaced apart from each other, and the first via hole 121f may be disposed on other groove walls of the docking groove 121e in addition to the bottom wall of the docking groove 121 e.

The water outlet seat 120 further comprises a base shell for carrying the second coupler 121, wherein the base shell is provided with a water outlet, the water outlet is lower than the first through hole 121f and is communicated with the first through hole 121f, and water flowing through the first through hole 121f can flow out through the water outlet. Outflow may refer to outflow outside of the water outlet 120, for example: if the drink apparatus is placed on a table, outflow may refer to outflow from a water collection box outside of the water outlet 120.

Illustratively, as shown in fig. 6, 8, 9, 18c and 18d, the base housing includes a first housing 125 and a second housing 127 positioned at a bottom side of the first housing 125, and the drain port includes: a second via hole 125c located on the first housing 125, and a drain hole 127a located on the second housing 127; the second via hole 125c is lower than the first via hole 121f, and the drain hole 127a is lower than the second via hole 125c; the water flow passing through the first through hole 121f can flow to the drain hole 127a through the second through hole 125c and flow out through the drain hole 127 a.

The first housing 125 is provided with a coupler mounting position 125a that matches the mating body 121 d. The coupler mounting portion 125a is provided with a mounting portion bottom wall 125b located at the bottom side of the abutting body 121d, and the second via hole 125c is illustratively provided on the mounting portion bottom wall 125 b. The water flow passing through the first through-hole 121f may flow out through the second through-hole 125c, thereby timely discharging the water flow passing through the first through-hole 121 f.

Specifically, one second via 125c may correspond to one second conductive member 121a, or may be provided corresponding to a plurality of second conductive members 121 a. Referring to the first housing 125 shown in fig. 7, five second vias 125c are provided. The second vias 125c located at the upper side in fig. 7 are disposed corresponding to the two second conductive members 121 a. The second vias 125c located at the lower side are disposed corresponding to one of the second conductive members 121 a. It is to be understood that, in another embodiment, the arrangement of the second via holes 125c is not limited thereto, so that the second conductive members 121a may be disposed in the second via holes 125c.

Referring to fig. 6 and 18d, the coupler mounting position 125a is further provided with a first sealing ring 126, and the first sealing ring 126 is in sealing fit with the second coupler 121, for example: the first seal ring 126 is in sealing contact with the outer edge of the abutting body 121d of the second coupler 121. Thereby realizing the sealing butt joint of the second coupler 121 and the coupler installation position 125a, and avoiding the water flow and the like from falling into the edge of the second coupler 121. In addition, in the embodiment shown in fig. 6, the second conductive member 121a further includes a power contact portion 121c, and the power contact portion 121c is located at the bottom side of the abutting body 121d and protrudes out of the outer edge of the abutting body 121 d. The docking body 121d is sealingly docked with the coupler mounting location 125a to prevent the power contact 121c from being wetted.

Referring to fig. 6 and 9, the outlet socket 120 further includes a second housing 127, and the second housing 127 is located at a bottom side of the first housing 125. The second housing 127 has a drain hole 127a and a water guide avoiding hole 127b at the bottom side. The drain hole 127a communicates with the water guide avoiding hole 127b. The water outlet seat 120 further includes a second water outlet pipe 128, the second water outlet pipe 128 is inserted into the water guiding avoidance hole 127b, and a gap is formed between the second water outlet pipe 128 and a side wall of the water guiding avoidance hole 127b. Accordingly, the water flowing out through the second through hole 125c can flow out through the drain hole 127a and the gap between the second water outlet pipe 128 and the side wall of the water guide avoiding hole 127b in this order. So as to avoid the liquid remaining in the water outlet seat 120, and further avoid the damage or injury of the devices in the water outlet seat 120 due to damp, and improve the service life of the water outlet seat 120.

In addition, the connection strength between the cup assembly 110 and the water outlet seat 120 is increased after the first locking portion 114 and the second locking portion 123 are locked, so that the sealing tightness of the sealing portion in the beverage apparatus can be increased. For example: after the first locking portion 114 and the second locking portion 123 are locked, the cup assembly 110 can increase the pressure on the water outlet seat 120 after locking by at least using its own weight, and can increase the sealing effect of the first sealing ring 126 under such pressure, compared with the water outlet seat 120 without the cup assembly 110.

Referring to fig. 9, a drain hole 127a is provided on a sidewall of the water guide escape hole 127 b. Of course, it is understood that in other possible embodiments, the drain hole is not limited to being disposed on a side wall of the avoidance hole, and may be disposed at any other position, such that the drain hole communicates with the water guiding avoidance hole, and the water flow in the drain hole may move toward the water guiding avoidance Kong Naliu.

Referring to fig. 5, 10 and 18d, the water outlet base 120 includes a first housing 125, and a coupler mounting position 125a matched with the docking body 121d is provided on the first housing 125. As shown in fig. 10 and 18b, a third via 125d is provided on the first housing 125, and the third via 125d is disposed offset from the coupler mounting site 125a. Thus, the water flow falling on the water outlet seat 120 and deviated from the coupler mounting position 125a can flow down through the third through hole 125 d. It can be appreciated that the water flowing down from the third through hole 125d may flow out through the drain hole 127a and the gap between the second water outlet pipe 128 and the side wall of the water guiding avoiding hole 127b in sequence.

In the embodiment shown in fig. 5 and 10, the second locking portion 123 is provided on the first housing 125. The second locking portion 123 covers the third via hole 125d. Therefore, when the water flow can be discharged, the third through hole 125d can be prevented from being exposed, and impurities in the environment can be prevented from entering the water outlet seat 120 through the third through hole 125d.

Alternatively, as in the embodiment shown in fig. 18b, the second locking portion 123 may also not cover the third via 125d.

In the present application, the third via holes 125d and the second locking portions 123 are two and correspond to each other one by one. It is understood that in other embodiments, the number of third vias 125d is not limited to two, but may be one or more than two. Similarly, in another embodiment, the third via hole 125d and the second locking portion 123 are not limited to one-to-one correspondence. Specifically, the second locking portion 123 may or may not correspond to one or more third vias 125 d.

Of course, it is understood that in other embodiments, the third via 125d may not be covered by the second locking portion 123, or may not be completely covered by the second locking portion 123.

In addition, it is understood that in the embodiment shown in fig. 5 and 10, the third via hole 125d is a square hole. It is understood that in other embodiments, the third via 125d may be regular or irregular in shape, such as a circular hole.

Referring to fig. 1, 11a, 11b and 12, the cup assembly 110 further includes a heating assembly 117 to heat the liquid in the cup 111, and a first outlet pipe 116. The beverage apparatus further includes a water receiving container 160 disposed on the bottom side of the cup assembly 110. The water receiving container 160 is used for receiving the liquid flowing out from the first water outlet pipe 116.

The heating component 117 can reheat the liquid flowing into the cup 111, so that the temperature of the liquid flowing into the receiving container is higher, and more demands of people on water flow are met.

Specifically, the heating element 117 includes two conductive contacts 117a disposed at the bottom of the cup 111, and a plurality of heating elements 117b in thermal contact with the bottom of the cup 111. A plurality of heat generating elements 117b are electrically connected to the two conductive contacts 117 a. The heating element 117b heats after being electrified so as to transfer heat to the liquid in the cup 111 through the bottom wall of the cup 111, thereby realizing heating of the liquid in the cup 111. It will be appreciated that the bottom wall of the cup 111 may be thermally conductive. Accordingly, the heat generated by the heat generating member 117b can be transferred to the liquid in the cup 111 through the bottom wall of the cup 111.

Specifically, the heating element 117b is a heating sheet, and is attached to the bottom wall of the cup 111 to transfer heat to the bottom wall of the cup 111. The heating sheet is attached to the bottom wall of the cup body 111, and a larger contact area is formed between the heating sheet and the bottom wall of the cup body 111, so that heat can be transferred to liquid in the cup body 111 better. Of course, it is understood that in other embodiments, the heat generating element is not limited to a heat generating sheet, but may be any other component that can generate heat when energized.

Referring to fig. 12, the heating elements 117b are substantially uniformly disposed on the bottom wall of the cup 111, so that the bottom wall of the cup 111 can be heated more uniformly, and thus the liquid in the cup 111 can be heated more uniformly.

More specifically, in the embodiment shown in fig. 12, the heat generating elements 117b are all in the shape of a fan and are concentric. It will be appreciated that in other embodiments, the shape of heat generating element 117b is not limited to a fanned ring shape, and may be any other regular or irregular shape.

The heat generating component 117 includes three heat generating sub-circuits 117c. The heat generating sub-circuit 117c has three or five heat generating elements 117b, and the heat generating elements 117b in the same heat generating sub-circuit 117c are connected in series. Specifically, in fig. 12, three heat generating sub-circuits 117c are selected by a dotted line frame. It will be appreciated that the dashed line is shown for the purpose of illustration only as a heat generating sub-circuit 117c, and is not present on the bottom wall of the heat generating component 117 or cup 111.

It is understood that in other embodiments, the number of heat generating components in the heat generating branch is not limited to three or five, but may be one, two, four or more than five.

In addition, the heat generating member 117b is disposed so as to avoid the dry heating member and the fuse member on the first coupler 112. The dry-fire and fuse elements are in thermal contact with the bottom wall 111c of the cup 111 to shut off the first coupler 112 from powering the heating element 117 when the bottom wall 111c is too hot.

Referring to fig. 11a and 11b, the second water outlet pipe 128 is movably disposed on the water outlet seat 120. The second outlet pipe 128 is movable to switch between a first position and a second position. When the second water outlet pipe 128 is at the first position, the liquid in the cup 111 can flow out from the first water outlet 111a, and the second water outlet pipe (128) is located outside the first water outlet pipe (116), see fig. 11b. Referring to fig. 11a, the second water outlet pipe 128 is located at the second position, and at this time, the liquid in the cup 111 cannot flow out from the first water outlet 111 a. The beverage apparatus further comprises a sealing structure 130. The sealing structure 130 is used for sealing and abutting the second water outlet pipe 128 with the first water outlet pipe 116 when the second water outlet pipe 128 is located at the first position, so as to isolate the inner cavity of the second water outlet pipe 128 from external devices. Therefore, water vapor in the water flow passing through the second water outlet pipe 128 is prevented from evaporating to the external device, the external device is prevented from being affected with damp, and the service life of the external device is prolonged.

Specifically, it is understood that the external devices include the second conductive member 121a in the second coupler 121, all the electrical components located on the second coupler 121 such as the power supply pins electrically connected to the second coupler 121, and the heat generating member located at the bottom of the cup 111.

Specifically, the sealing structure 130 includes a second sealing ring 131. When the second water outlet pipe 128 is positioned at the first position, the second sealing ring 131 is annular; the second sealing ring 131 is in sealing butt joint with the side wall of the first water outlet pipe 116 and the side wall of the second water outlet pipe 128, see fig. 11b. The second sealing ring 131 is sleeved on the first water outlet pipe 116, that is, the inner side surface of the second sealing ring 131 is in sealing fit with the outer side surface of the first water outlet pipe 116, so that the sealing butt joint between the second sealing ring 131 and the side wall of the first water outlet pipe 116 is realized. It will be appreciated that in other embodiments, the manner in which the second seal ring is sealingly engaged with the side wall of the first outlet pipe is not limited thereto, and may be implemented.

The second outlet pipe 128 has a butt end 128a adjacent the first outlet pipe 116. When the second water outlet pipe 128 is located at the first position, the second sealing ring 131 is in sealing abutment with the abutting end 128a of the second water outlet pipe 128. It is appreciated that the inner diameter of the second water outlet pipe 128 is larger than the outer diameter of the first water outlet pipe 116, so that the second water outlet pipe 128 can be partially sleeved on the first water outlet pipe 116, so that the water flow in the first water outlet pipe 116 can smoothly flow into the second water outlet pipe 128.

The second coupler 121 includes a butt joint body 121d. The abutting body 121d has an abutting groove 121e that mates with the first abutting wall 112 a. As shown in fig. 6 and 11c, the inner wall 121g of the abutting groove 121e is in sealing contact with the second seal ring 131. Thereby, the inner cavity of the second water outlet pipe 128 is further isolated from external devices, so that the external devices are better protected.

Of course, it is understood that in other embodiments, the manner in which the sealed interface of the first outlet pipe and the second outlet pipe is achieved is not limited thereto. For example, the sealing butt joint of the first water outlet pipe and the second water outlet pipe can be realized in a mode that the butt joint body is in sealing butt joint with the second sealing ring and the second sealing ring is in sealing butt joint with the second water outlet pipe.

For the movement of the second water outlet pipe, refer to the driving manner of the water outlet nozzle 130 in the application document with the application number CN202021450472.4, and the description is omitted here. It will be appreciated that in other embodiments, the manner in which the second outlet pipe is driven to move is not limited to that described in CN202021450472.4, but may be any other manner in which the second outlet pipe may be driven to move.

Referring to fig. 3 and 13, the cup 111 includes a cup side wall 111b and a cup bottom wall 111c. It will be appreciated that the cup bottom wall 111c sealingly interfaces with the cup side wall 111 b. The cup bottom wall 111c is formed of a thermally conductive material to achieve the desired thermally conductive function described above. Optionally, the cup sidewall 111b is at least partially formed of a thermally insulating material, thereby achieving a thermal insulating function; or the side wall 111b of the cup is made of transparent material, so that a user can conveniently see the condition of the inner cavity of the cup body 111, and the attractive effect is achieved.

Optionally, the rim of the cup bottom wall 111c is provided with an annular groove 111e matching the bottom of the cup side wall 111 b. The bottom wall 111c of the cup 111 is fixedly connected to the side wall 111b by means of an edible glue. It will be appreciated that in other embodiments, the manner of securing the bottom wall 111c and the side wall 111b of the cup 111 is not limited thereto and may be accomplished in any other manner.

Referring to fig. 3, 11a to 11c, and 13, one end of the first outlet pipe 116 has a rim 116a that mates with the sidewall of the first outlet port 111 a. The edge 116a is annular and is in sealing overlap with the side wall of the first water outlet 111a, i.e. can be overlapped on the bottom wall of the cup 111, so as to prevent the liquid in the cup 111 from flowing out through the gap between the first water outlet pipe 116 and the first water outlet 111 a. In addition, the first water outlet pipe 116 is lapped on the side wall of the first water outlet 111a, so that the first water outlet pipe 116 can be prevented from sliding off the first water outlet 111 a.

Further, the inner side of the side wall of the first water outlet 111a is provided with a lap groove 111d matching with the rim 116 a. The overlapping groove 111d can position the edge 116a, that is, the first water outlet pipe 116, and prevent the first water outlet pipe 116 from moving in a direction substantially parallel to the cup bottom wall 111 c. It is understood that the overlap recess 111d is also annular.

The cup assembly 110 also includes a third seal ring 118. The third sealing ring 118 is located in the overlap groove 111d and is in sealing fit with the edge 116a, so that sealing overlap of the edge 116a and the inner wall of the overlap groove 111d is realized, that is, sealing overlap of the edge 116a and the side wall of the first water outlet 111a is realized.

Specifically, the cross section of the third sealing ring 118 is L-shaped, which increases the contact area between the third sealing ring 118 and the inner surface of the overlap groove 111d, and also increases the contact area between the third sealing ring 118 and the edge 116a, thereby improving the sealing performance between the edge 116a and the overlap groove 111 d.

Further, an external thread is provided on the outer side surface of the first water outlet pipe 116. As shown in fig. 11c, the cup assembly 110 further includes a fixing member 119 for fixing the first water outlet pipe 116, and the fixing member 119 has an internal thread matching the external thread on the first water outlet pipe 116. The fixing member 119 is located at the bottom side of the cup body 111 and abuts against the bottom wall 111c of the cup body 111. I.e. the fixing member 119, prevents the first outlet pipe 116 from moving in a direction pointing toward the inner cavity of the cup 111. The fixing member 119 cooperates with the rim 116a to keep the first outlet pipe 116 and the cup 111 relatively fixed, so as to ensure the sealing performance between the rim 116a and the overlapping groove 111d, i.e. the sealing performance between the first outlet pipe 116 and the side wall of the first outlet 111 a.

As shown in fig. 11c, in particular, cup assembly 110 includes a protective housing 1110 disposed at the bottom of cup 111. Along the axial direction of the first water outlet 111a, the fixing member 119 is abutted with the protective housing 1110, and the protective housing 1110 is abutted with the cup bottom wall 111c of the cup body 111, so that the abutment of the fixing member 119 and the cup bottom wall 111c of the cup body 111 is realized.

The guard casing 1110 may be part of the first coupler 112, for example: the guard casing 1110 is a coupler bracket that carries the first conductive member 112b in the first coupler 112, and the abutting body 121d is a part of the coupler bracket.

It will be appreciated that the cup assembly 110 may not have a fastener 119 for securing the first outlet pipe 116. There is no fixing 19 outside the first outlet pipe 116 as shown in fig. 11b and 11 d.

Referring to fig. 11c, the cup assembly 110 further includes a filter 1111 disposed within the interior cavity of the first outlet tube 116. Specifically, the filtering element 1111 is disposed at one end of the first water outlet pipe 116 near the inner cavity of the cup 111, so as to prevent the filtered substances from accumulating in the first water outlet pipe 116, and further avoid the smooth outflow of water, and also avoid the increase of the cleaning times and difficult cleaning of the first water outlet pipe 116 caused by the accumulation of the filtered substances in the first water outlet pipe 116.

Optionally, the filter 1111 is detachably disposed on the first outlet pipe 116, thereby facilitating cleaning of the first outlet pipe 116 and the filter 1111.

Specifically, the first outlet pipe 116 includes a mounting section 116c proximate the interior cavity of the cup 111, and a main section 116d distal from the interior cavity of the cup 111 at the mounting section 116 c; the inner diameter of the mounting section 116c is greater than the inner diameter of the body section 116d; the filter 1111 abuts the sidewall of the mounting section 116 c. Thus, the filter 1111 is prevented from moving toward an end far from the cup 111, so that the filter 1111 can be more stably fixed to an end of the first water outlet pipe 116 near the inner cavity of the cup 111.

Alternatively, the sides of the filter 1111 may abut the side walls of the mounting section 116c in its entirety or may abut the side walls of the mounting section 116c in part.

Referring to fig. 11c, the cup assembly 110 further includes a valve assembly 1112 disposed within the interior cavity of the first outlet tube 116.
