Then, a predetermined amount of hot water and powdered milk measured from the third powdered milk storage tank are supplied from the second storage tank to the baby bottle.

Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings.
FIG. 1 is an external view of the powdered milk preparation device of the present invention.
In the figure, a powdered milk blending device 100 includes a first water tank 1 for storing water, and a second hot water storage tank 2 in which hot water obtained by boiling water in the first water tank 1 is sent and kept at a predetermined temperature. And a third powdered milk storage tank 3 for storing the powdered milk.

These tanks 1 to 3 are formed of a transparent or translucent material such as plastic, for example, so that the amount of water, hot water, and powdered milk can be seen from the outside. Further, at least the vertical ridges of the first water tank 3 and the third milk storage tank 2 are provided with scales 4 and 5 so that the amount of the stored items can be visually observed.
Although not shown in the drawing in the first water tank 1 for storing the reserve water, it is preferable to provide a scale so that the amount of the reserve water inside can be visually observed in the same manner as described above.

The first water tank 1, the second hot water storage tank 2 and the third milk storage tank 3 are provided with upper lids 6, 7, 8 respectively.
In addition, an opening / closing door 9 is provided on the front surface of the main body of the powdered milk blending apparatus 100. When the opening / closing door 9 is opened, a storage space 10 is provided as shown in FIG. The bottle 12 can be placed.

  In FIG. 3, metering valves 13, 14 and open / close valves 15, 16 are provided in the second hot water storage tank 2 and the third milk storage tank 3, and a predetermined amount of hot water and a predetermined amount of powdered milk are respectively measured in the metering valve 13, 14, and by opening the on-off valves 15 and 16, a predetermined amount of hot water and a predetermined amount of powdered milk are supplied to the baby bottle 12 via the supply pipes 17 and 18.

A control panel is provided on the side of the main body of the powdered milk preparation device 100.
That is, the control panel includes a power switch 19 for turning on power to the main body, a heater switch 20 for energizing a heater (not shown) for boiling water in the second hot water storage tank 2, and a baby bottle 12 A measuring instruction dial 21 for determining and supplying a weighing instruction; a feeding lamp 12 for feeding; a suitable temperature scale lamp 22 for displaying the optimum temperature for melting milk and allowing an infant to drink; In particular, a negative ion operation button 23 for generating negative ions to keep the inside of the storage space for placing the baby bottle 12 and a water supply lamp indicating the water supply state of the first water tank 1 to the second hot water storage tank 2. 24.

Since the negative ion generator has a normal configuration, it is not shown in the figure, but is incorporated in the powdered milk preparation device 100. Moreover, the code | symbol 25 in a figure shows a power plug.
Moreover, the said powdered milk preparation apparatus 100 contains a microcomputer, and a process as shown in FIG. 4 is performed by CPU.

  That is, first, when the main power supply 29 is turned on in step (4-1), the microcomputer operates.

A predetermined amount of water is supplied from the first water tank 1. On the other hand, when the amount of water in the second hot water storage tank 2 is a predetermined amount, the process proceeds to the next step (4-3), and the heater for heating the water in the second hot water storage tank is turned on.

  Next, it moves to step (4-4), detects whether the water of the 2nd hot water storage tank 2 boiled with a temperature sensor (illustration omitted), and when it boils, the said heater is turned off. Then, in step (4-5), it is determined whether or not the temperature has decreased to an optimum temperature for infants to drink, for example, about 40 ° C. If the temperature has decreased, the process proceeds to the next step (4-6).

  In the above step (4-6), the metering valves 13 and 14 operate in response to the instruction amount set in advance by the metering instruction dial 21 to measure a predetermined amount of hot water and powdered milk, and in step (4-7). It is determined whether the amount is appropriate.

  When the amount in the above step (4-7) is appropriate, the process proceeds to step (4-8), the on-off valves 15 and 16 are opened, and a predetermined amount of hot water and powdered milk are supplied via the supply pipes 17 and 18. The baby bottle 12 is supplied, and a series of processes is terminated in step (4-9).

Next, the Example at the time of completing a comparatively large apparatus using the structure of the said milk powder preparation apparatus 100 is shown in FIG.
This powdered milk blending device 200 is a vending machine, and the internal mechanism has substantially the same mechanism as the above-described powdered milk blending device 100, and the type of favorite powdered milk can be selected by operating the sales button 26. It is like that. In addition, 27 is a coin insertion port, 28 is a coin discharge port, 29 is a placement space for the baby bottle 12, and other internal mechanisms use the same or similar mechanism as that of a vending machine such as a normal beverage. is doing.

  Further, in the invention of claim 2, the hot water boiled in the second hot water storage tank 2 is guided to the upper part through the funnel by the principle of the coffee siphon, and is filtered and dropped again through the filter. Illustration of the configuration is omitted.
