Description

  The present invention relates to a teapot temperature sensor device, which instantly detects the internal temperature and enhances convenience.

  In general, when boiling tea or coffee, boiling water at 100 ° C is not suitable. For example, the appropriate temperature of tea leaves is 70 ° C to 100 ° C, and varies depending on the type of tea leaves. Green tea is good at 70 to 72 ° C, and 85 to 88 ° C is suitable for Takayama tea, spring tea, and oolong tea. In addition, black tea should have a temperature of 90 ° C. to 92 ° C. (after boiling, the temperature is lowered to that temperature). In other words, the greener the tea leaves, the lower the temperature at which they are lit, which makes the taste clear and tasty and makes vitamin C less likely to break. The coffee should be between 88 ° C and 95 ° C. For example, reduced roasted coffee is 92 ° C to 95 ° C, medium roasted coffee is 90 ° C to 93 ° C, and deep roasted coffee is 88 ° C to 90 ° C. ℃ is good. These proper temperatures have a decisive influence on the aroma, taste and flavor.

  People who are accustomed to making tea leaves or coffee use their own experience and feeling to determine the temperature at which they are turned on (after boiling, lower to that temperature). An inexperienced person can only measure the temperature with a thermometer. However, there are different problems both when the temperature is effectively grasped and when measured with a thermometer. The accuracy of judgment based on experience is not so high, and the judgment is affected by differences in mood and equipment. Measuring with a thermometer is inconvenient and cannot be measured continuously.

  In other words, the current teapot cannot always grasp the internal water temperature and provide it to the user in the process of lowering the internal temperature, so it has an influence on the quality of tea leaves or coffee and must always measure the water temperature.

    The problem to be solved is that the temperature in the teapot cannot be detected effectively at any time.

  The present invention is a teapot temperature sensor device that constantly grasps the temperature in the teapot, and mainly includes a teapot body, a teapot lid, and a detection unit. The teapot lid is placed on the lid body opening which does not have an automatic heating action, and the detection unit is installed on the teapot lid. The detection unit includes a sensor component for measuring the temperature in the lid body and a display component for the user to view the temperature value. With these, when the teapot body is placed on the heating device and heated, or in the process of cooling after heating, the temperature inside the teapot body is detected by the sensor component on the teapot lid, and the detected temperature is displayed on the display component. Display is the main feature.

  The teapot temperature sensor device of the present invention has an advantage that tea and coffee are squeezed at a necessary temperature by constantly grasping the temperature inside the teapot body.

  The present invention provides a teapot temperature sensor device, and aims to immediately grasp the accurate water temperature and enhance convenience.
