Definitions
- the present invention relates to a unit of a coffee machine with a container module.
- Coffee is a luxury item that needs to be prepared properly. So that coffee can develop its aroma optimally, the coffee beans should, for example, always be ground immediately before the coffee is prepared. Since not everyone prefers the same types of coffee beans, it is also desirable to be able to switch between different types of coffee as quickly and easily as possible.
- Some coffee machines therefore have portioners that feed a predefined amount of coffee beans to the grinder or weigh the freshly ground coffee.
- coffee powder is made from espresso beans and, for example, from milk coffee beans or from lungos with the same grind fineness in fully automatic coffee machines. But it is extremely important that the corresponding beans, dark or light roasted, are also ground with the correct grind.
- WO 2019/122397 A1 describes a container module for a coffee device, the container module having a bean container, a metering device and a grinder setting device for setting a grinder of the coffee device.
- the coffee device is for example a coffee machine with a brewing device or a coffee grinder, in particular for the preparation of Single servings. Depending on the embodiment, it is also suitable for preparing double portions. Other embodiments alternatively or additionally allow the preparation of multiple portions.
- the settings for the grinding degree and the dosage are set directly on the container module, they are permanently linked to the type of coffee beans filled in the bean container. Since these settings are taken into account and executed without further action by the user when the container module is connected to the rest of the coffee machine, these settings do not have to be set on the machine each time this type of coffee is used again. This makes handling easy and guarantees consistent coffee quality.
- This unit therefore offers freshly ground coffee at all times without impairing the aroma. It is easy to change the type of bean, since only the container module has to be changed.
- the settings on the coffee machine can be easily changed depending on the bean and user, whereby parameters that have been set for a type of coffee do not have to be set again when the machine is used later, even if a different type of coffee was brewed in between.
- WO 2019/122397 A1 discloses a grinder which has two grinding disks arranged along a horizontal axis, a first grinding disk preferably being stationary and a second grinding disk being displaceable in the horizontal direction by means of the grinding degree setting device. This allows the distance between the two grinding discs to be varied and different grinding degree settings can be selected.
- the grinding disks are arranged around a vertical or an inclined axis.
- a very popular coffee grinder is the cone grinder. It has a frustoconical grinder, the truncated cone of which usually extends in the vertical direction and tapers upwards.
- EP 2 050 377 A1 describes a grinder with a partially toothed grinding cone, the is surrounded by a fixed grinding ring. A grinding gap is formed between the grinding cone and grinding ring, in which the coffee beans are ground.
- the grinding ring is connected to an adjusting ring which has flange teeth directed radially outwards. This flange toothing is used to grip the adjusting ring for the purpose of setting the grinding degree.
- the adjusting ring moves the grinding ring in the axial direction and thus changes the grinding gap.
- WO 2009/010190 A1 also shows a conical grinder with an adjustable grinding gap.
- EP 2 404 534 A1 also discloses a grinder with a grinding disc holder which tapers conically upwards and which is rotatably held in a housing.
- a first annular grinding disk is attached to the grinding disk holder.
- a stationary second annular grinding disk is arranged above the first grinding disk.
- a grinding gap in which the coffee beans are ground is formed between the two grinding disks.
- WO 2008/142536 A1 shows a grinder with two grinding rings arranged around a vertical axis. The distance between the grinding rings can be changed by means of a central controller of a coffee machine, the controller driving a worm which engages in a spur gear of the grinder.
- EP 3 114 975 A1 describes a grinder for fully automatic coffee machines, the grinder having a dispensing opening and a drive shaft device which can be positioned differently from one another.
- the axis of rotation of the rotating grinding body runs in the vertical direction.
- a unit of a coffee device with a container module which has a coffee bean container, a portioner and a mechanical grind adjuster, one setting position of the grind adjuster being a first Rotary movement of an adjusting means of the unit about a vertical first axis of rotation for the purpose of adjusting the grinding degree of a grinder of the coffee device.
- the unit also has a mechanical transmission means for transmitting the first rotational movement of the setting means into a second rotational movement of a grinding gap changing means of the grinding mechanism about a second rotational axis deviating from a horizontal.
- This unit for a coffee machine makes it possible to create an operative connection between a grinding degree adjuster of the container module and a commercially available grinder.
- the grinder can be a cone mill or another mill with a grinding body rotating about a vertical axis.
- the transmission means must be adapted to the shape and size of the grinding gap changing means of the specific grinder type.
- the basic idea namely that there is a transmission medium that transmits the movement, however, always remains the same.
- the various embodiments of the container modules cannot only be used with horizontal grinding disks, i.e. with a rotating grinding disk that rotates about a horizontal axis of rotation.
- these container modules can also be used in coffee devices that have a different type of grinder, in particular a cone mill or another mill with a grinding body rotating about an axis deviating from a horizontal axis.
- the setting means is preferably a setting wheel with external teeth. It is even more preferably a bevel gear or a spur gear. For example, it is a horizontal bevel gear, as described in WO 2019/122397 A1 mentioned at the beginning. In WO 2019/122397 A1 it is referred to as an adjusting disk and bears the reference number 31 or 312.
- the transmission means is in direct engagement with the setting means. This results in a simple, space-saving and inexpensive training. In other embodiments, an additional transmission is present between the adjustment means and the transmission means. This results in an optimized power transmission.
- the transmission means is preferably in direct engagement with the means for changing the grinding gap of the grinder. In other embodiments, an additional transmission is available.
- the second axis of rotation is at an angle to the horizontal direction. It preferably runs in the vertical direction, ie perpendicular to the horizontal. This alignment is common in a large number of commercially available grinders, in particular for espresso machines, for example for semi-automatic coffee machines and fully automatic coffee machines. However, another angle is also possible, in particular depending on the configuration of the grinder and depending on the embodiment.
- Means for changing the grinding gap in commercially available grinders are usually rotatable about an axis which runs parallel to the axis of rotation of the rotating grinding body.
- these grinding gap changing means are also spur gears or bevel gears which are arranged on a housing of the grinder. They usually enclose the housing.
- the mechanical transmission means can be designed differently depending on the embodiment.
- the transmission means has a shaft with a first and a second end, a first wheel with external teeth being arranged at the first end and a second wheel with external teeth being arranged at the second end.
- the first wheel is preferably designed to match the setting means, preferably as a spur gear or bevel gear.
- the second wheel is preferably designed to match the grinding gap changing means, preferably as a spur gear or bevel gear.
- the transmission means is formed by the shaft itself.
- This training has the advantage that it is very space-saving.
- the possible arrangements for the transfer medium are often determined by the fact that the path between the outlet opening of the container module for the metered amount of Coffee beans and the inlet opening for this dose in the coffee grinder should be as short as possible.
- funding is often foregone here, so the gradient has to be large enough.
- the outlet opening of the container module or portioner is therefore preferably arranged as axially as possible above the inlet opening in the grinding gap of the grinder.
- the transmission means which has a shaft or is formed by a shaft, has the advantage that the basic principle can be varied in many ways and, by adapting in particular the second wheel, can be used with a large number of different types of grinding mechanisms and different types of grinding gap changing means.
- the shaft preferably runs in a straight line, a longitudinal center axis defined by it forming an axis of rotation of the first and second spur gears.
- the container module is detachably attached to a housing of the coffee device without tools. It can be removed and reattached at will by the user of the coffee device.
- the connection to the housing is preferably made by means of a snap lock or a bayonet thread.
- the unit therefore preferably has a module receptacle for the detachable fastening of the container module.
- the module holder is preferably part of the housing of the coffee device.
- the module receptacle preferably has the setting means.
- the grinding degree setting of the container module is preferably maintained when the connection to the housing of the coffee device is created and released. Depending on the embodiment, the setting can be changed with the container module installed and / or removed.
- the grinding degree adjuster effects the grinding degree setting of the grinder during or after a connection is established between the container module and the module holder.
- the container module preferably has an adjustment option for the portioner, as is also described in detail in WO 2019/122397 A1 mentioned at the beginning. This setting is also preferred when connecting and when Keep loosening the connection with the housing of the coffee device.
- the unit is preferably part of a coffee machine with an adjustable grinder.
- the coffee device is, for example, a coffee grinder or a coffee brewing device with an integrated grinder, in particular a semi-automatic coffee machine or a fully automatic coffee machine.
- the grinder of this coffee device preferably has a grinding gap changing means which can be rotated about an axis deviating from a horizontal direction. This axis preferably runs in the vertical direction.
- the grinder preferably has a grinding body which can be rotated about an axis deviating from a horizontal direction. This axis of rotation preferably runs in the vertical direction.
- the axes of rotation of the means for changing the grinding gap and of the rotatable grinding body are preferably congruent.
- the grinder is preferably a cone mill.
- the mechanical transmission means forms an adapter between the container module with its setting means and the grinding gap changing means of the grinder.
