Description

[Detailed explanation of the idea] The present invention relates to a coffee strainer.

Conventional coffee strainers are placed on top of a coffee storage container, and after setting a filter paper, coffee powder is poured in and hot water is poured over it, allowing the coffee to flow into the coffee storage container through the communication hole formed at the bottom of the coffee strainer. was configured to fall.

For this reason, the cooking method had to be changed depending on the grinding level of the coffee beans, the temperature of the hot water, etc., and an amateur was unable to brew good-tasting coffee.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION In view of the above-mentioned drawbacks of the conventional apparatus, the present invention aims to provide a coffee strainer with a relatively simple structure that allows even an amateur to easily brew good-tasting coffee.

Hereinafter, the present invention will be explained in detail with reference to embodiments shown in the drawings.

In the embodiment shown in FIGS. 1 to 4, reference numeral 1 denotes a coffee strainer body that can be placed on a coffee storage container 2 for storing coffee, and this coffee strainer body 1 has a support base 3 and a support base 3. It is composed of a container 4 fitted onto a stand 3 and an opening/closing lid 6 that opens and closes an upper opening 5 of the container 4. The support stand 3 is composed of a plate-shaped support body 7 that can be placed on the coffee storage container 2, and a cylindrical fitting part 8 formed approximately at the center of the support body 7. . The container 4 is rotatably fitted into a container body 10 in which the filter paper 9 supported by the support base 3 is stored, and a fitting portion 8 of the support base 3 formed at a substantially central lower part of the container body 10. It is composed of a fitting part 11 that is fitted together. The opening/closing lid 6 is composed of an opening/closing lid main body 13 having a fitting piece 12 that loosely fits into the inner wall of the opening 5 of the container 4, and an air vent hole 14 communicating with the inside of the container 4.

Reference numeral 15 denotes an on-off valve that opens and closes a communication hole 16 formed in the fitting part 11 of the container 4 by rotating the container 4 fitted on the support base 3; It consists of a hole 18 formed in the bottom plate 17 of the fitting part 11 and a hole 20 formed in the bottom plate 19 of the fitting part 8 of the support base 3.

In the above structure, the container 4 is fitted onto the support base 3 as shown in FIG. That is, the on-off valve 15
is in a closed state. In this state, place the coffee on the container 2 and place it on the container 4.
Set the filter paper 9 inside. Next, pour coffee powder into the filter paper 9 and pour hot water over it. The coffee powder clumped at the top of the hot water is loosened with a spatula or the like, and the opening of the container 4 is closed with the opening/closing lid 6. In this state, after a predetermined period of time, when sufficient extraction has occurred, hold the support stand 3 with one hand, hold the container 4 with the other hand, and rotate it.
By opening the on-off valve 15 as shown in FIG. 4, coffee can be dropped into the coffee storage container 2 through the filter paper 9 and the communication hole 16.

As is clear from the above description, the present invention provides the following effects.

(1) A coffee storage container with an open top for storing coffee, a dish-shaped support placed on top of the coffee storage container, and a cylindrical fitting portion formed approximately in the center of the support. a bottom plate that covers approximately half or more of the lower opening formed at a lower position of the fitting part; a container that is placed on the support base and can store filter paper, etc.; a cylindrical fitting part that can be fitted with a fitting part formed on the support base, and approximately half or more of the lower opening formed at a lower position of the fitting part; The fitting part of the container is fitted to the fitting part of the support base so that the opening is closed, and in this state, filter paper, coffee grounds, and hot water are poured into the container. After brewing the coffee, the support stand and the container are rotated to open the opening and the coffee in the container can fall into the coffee storage container below. Therefore, the extraction concentration can be adjusted as desired, and coffee with the desired taste can be easily produced.

(2) According to (1) above, coffee can be sufficiently extracted in hot water, so delicious coffee can be made not only from new beans but also from old beans.

(3) It has a simple structure in which the opening can be opened and closed by simply fitting the fitting part of the container into the fitting part of the support stand and rotating the support stand and the container, so it can be manufactured relatively inexpensively. There is no need to worry about malfunctions such as coffee liquid leaking outside.

(4) Since the hole that communicates the container and the coffee storage container can be made approximately half the size of the cylindrical fitting portion, the opening can be made large when opened. Therefore, coffee can be efficiently dropped into the coffee storage container.

(5) Since the container is placed on the top of the support stand so that it can be separated, the support stand and the container can be separated and washed after use. Therefore, it is possible to clean the corners of each fitting portion without leaving any residue, which is sanitary.

Claims (1)

[Scope of utility model registration request] A coffee storage container with an open top for storing coffee, a dish-shaped support placed on the coffee storage container, a cylindrical fitting portion formed approximately at the center of the support, and A bottom plate that covers approximately half or more of the lower opening formed at a lower position of the fitting part, a container that is placed on the support base and can store filter paper, etc., and approximately the center of the container. A cylindrical fitting part formed at a lower part that can be fitted with a fitting part formed on the support base, and a bottom plate that covers approximately half or more of the lower opening formed at a lower position of the fitting part. The fitting part of the container is fitted to the fitting part of the support base so that the opening is closed, and in this state, filter paper, coffee powder, and hot water are poured into the container to fully pour coffee into the container. This coffee strainer is characterized in that after brewing, the support stand and the container are rotated to open an opening so that the coffee in the container can fall into a coffee storage container at the bottom.
