Description

[Detailed description of the invention] Industrial applications The present invention extracts and heats beverages such as coffee.

This invention relates to an extraction cooling device for cooling coffee, etc.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION Traditionally, in response to the demand for beverages to be provided in large quantities or for both hot and cold use with one device, this type of beverage device consists of one extractor section and two Devices were devised that allowed the coffee to be poured into separate tanks, or into two pipes so that hot and cold coffee could be taken out.

Below, along with Figures 7 to 8, the first conventional example
2-7395) and a second conventional example (Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication No. 159924/1982) will be described with reference to FIGS. 9 to 11.

In the first conventional example, as shown in the figure, a hot water storage tank 1
Inside ', coffee tanks 3' and 4' each having a pouring cock 2 are installed relatively close to each other on the left and right sides.

A discharge pipe is fixed to the upper surface of the hot water storage tank 1' via a hot water metering mechanism (not shown), and an extractor 6' is mounted directly below the discharge pipe 5' in a detachable and rotatable manner. ing. The extractor 6' has a handle 7' that is a poor heat conductor, and an outlet 8' for the extracted coffee liquid is provided on the bottom surface at an eccentric position near the handle 7'. Further, the top surface of the extractor 6' has a flange 12' having a notch at the rear, and the extractor 6' can be opened by engaging the flange 12' with a holder 13' provided at the top of the hot water storage tank 1'. Place it,
In this state, hold the handle 7' and make sure that the notches on the left and right are holder 1.
When the extractor 6' is rotated in the groove that corresponds to the stopper (not shown) at 3', the outlet of the coffee tank 3' or 4 is blurred.
The openings 9a' of the lids 9' placed on each of the lids 9' are positioned directly above the openings 9a' of the lids 9'. When brewing coffee, a 10-meter paper filter is set in the extractor 6', and coffee powder 11' is placed on top of it.

To describe the operation of this first conventional example, in order to extract coffee now, the paper filter 10' and the coffee powder 11 are
Insert the extractor 6' into the holder 13', turn the extractor 6', for example, clockwise until the notch hits the stopper, and input the start signal.The metering mechanism operates and the hot water tank 1 A predetermined amount of hot water in the coffee cup 11' is measured and sprinkled on the coffee grounds 11' from the discharge pipe 5', and the extracted coffee liquid flows into the coffee tank 3' on the left side from the outlet 8' of the extractor 6. The coffee liquid is stored while being kept warm by hot water in the hot water storage tank 1', and is poured into a cup by opening the pouring cock 2' when necessary. To extract coffee into the coffee tank 4' on the right side, hold the handle 7' of the extractor 6' and turn it counterclockwise. When the notch hits the stopper and stops, give the start signal again and it will start as described above. Coffee is extracted in the same way.

This kind of coffee extraction device has two coffee tanks, and it is possible to store coffee liquid in one coffee tank and clean the other tank while maintaining the eating and drinking posture. By standing up, you can avoid adding new coffee on top of the coffee that is running low, so you can always provide fresh coffee. Furthermore, when brewing a large amount of coffee in a short period of time, you can use both tanks. There are many advantages such as being able to deal with the problem by keeping it full.

Next, in the second conventional example, as shown in the figure, the basic structure is a base 14' and a tank 16 for storing hot water or water.
', a heat exchange container 16' used for cooling the coffee liquid, a storage container 17' for storing the extracted coffee liquid, and a cooling container 16' for water etc. stored in the heat exchange container 16'. It consists of a discharge tank 18' for discharging the medium. The hot water or room temperature water in the tank 15' is
A heat exchange vessel 16' is connected to the heat exchange vessel 16' via a pipe by a pump 19'.
The water is supplied to the water spray nozzle 20' above the water spray nozzle 20'. Above the heat exchange container 16', an extractor 21' and a filter member 22' are removably placed between the extractor 21' and the water nozzle/L/20'. The extractor 21' has a conical shape concave from the outer periphery to the center, and a guide hole 23' through which extracted coffee liquid flows is provided at the center bottom of the cone, and an operating piece 24' is formed protruding from the outer periphery, and is used for heat exchange. It is rotatably mounted on the container. The guide hole 23' is connected to a guide passage 26' that extends in the circumferential direction toward the bottom, and rotates the extractor 21' in the direction of the half-hour hand to a position where the operating piece 24' touches the base 14' and stops. The guide passage 26' is located directly above the transport pipe 27' provided in the heat exchange container 16'. Further, when the extractor 21' is rotated clockwise and the operating piece 24' comes into contact with the base body 14' and stops, the guide passage 26' is now connected to the heat exchanger tube 28' provided in the heat exchange container 16'. It is located directly above the . The transport pipe 27' extends downwardly inside the heat exchange container 16', and the heat exchange tube 28' is spirally wound inside the heat exchange container 16'. Both of them have their lower ends protruding from below the heat exchange container 16' directly above the storage container 17'. Cold water and ice are stored in the heat exchange container 16', and it communicates directly above the drain tank 18' via a lower water stop cock 29'.

Next, to describe the operation of this second conventional example, when making hot coffee, after boiling the water in the tank 15' to boiling water, coffee grounds are set in the filter member 22' and placed in the extractor 21'. Place the extractor 21' on the heat exchange container 16' and rotate it in the direction of the half-hour hand until it hits the base 14'. When a start signal is input, hot water is supplied to the water spray nozzle 20' by the pump 19'. The water is sent to the ground coffee and sprinkled with water. The eluted coffee liquid flows from the guide hole 23' through the guide passage 26' into the transport pipe 27' and immediately flows down to be stored in the storage container 17'. Next, when making cold coffee, the difference from making hot coffee described above is that cold water or ice is stored in the heat exchange container 16' in advance, and the extractor 21' is rotated clockwise until it hits the cup. The best thing to do is to let it happen. The eluted coffee liquid then flows into the heat transfer tube 28' from the guide passage 26', and as it flows down in a spiral manner, it undergoes heat exchange and is cooled to become cold coffee liquid, which is stored in the storage container 17'.

Problems to be Solved by the Invention However, in the configuration of the first conventional example described above, the outlet 8' provided in the extractor 6' is located at an eccentric position, which causes unevenness of coffee powder during coffee extraction, resulting in uneven distribution of coffee powder. The consumption of 9° coffee powder, which cannot be filtered and has a bad taste, is increased. In addition, there is a possibility that the coffee liquid may be extracted at an intermediate location other than the coffee tank 3' or 4', and in that case, the coffee may flow to the outside of the machine and settle there. If a waterproof electrical contact such as a microswitch is provided so that the metering mechanism operates only when the extractor 6' is in the correct position, the structure will be complicated and expensive. Additionally, coffee tanks 3' and 4
′ are installed close to each other on the left and right, so if the tanks are used for cold and hot, for example, the insulation will be poor and the required temperature will not be obtained, or the tank will be an inefficient device with large heat loss and used for cold and hot. It was not suitable for

Next, in the second conventional example, the guide hole 2 of the extractor 21'
3' is located in the center and can uniformly filter coffee during extraction, but the guide passage 26' is long and narrow, making it difficult to clean and unsanitary. Moreover, the cold water in the heat exchange container 16' must be replaced with cold water every time it is used, which is time consuming. Furthermore, after the cold coffee accumulates in the storage container 17', it becomes warmer and cannot be stored cold for a long time. When brewing even hotter coffee, the hot coffee cools down as it flows down through the transport pipe 27'.

Furthermore, the transport pipe 27' and the heat transfer pipe 28' are bent and difficult to clean, making them unsanitary even though they are passages for coffee liquid.

In view of the above-mentioned problems, the present invention eliminates unbalanced extraction in the extractor, improves the taste of beverages, and reduces the consumption of drinking raw materials, and also simplifies and inexpensively constructs a mechanism for pouring out the extracted filtrate. The purpose was to make it easy to clean and use drinks hygienically, to cool and store drinks without any hassle, and to store and use hot drinks while still hot without touching other objects. The present invention provides an extraction cooling device for coffee, etc.

Means for Solving the Problem Therefore, in order to achieve the above object, the present invention has an extractor provided with an extraction port for discharging the extract liquid at the center bottom, and an evaporator in the refrigeration cycle, and has an exhaust port and an on-off valve. a beverage cooling tank, a beverage container removably placed below the extractor, a hollow upper end having a receiving port for receiving the extract from the extractor, and a lower end open to the beverage cooling tank; At the same time, a flow means provided with a protrusion on the surface, a support means for slidably supporting the flow means, and a support means which engages with the projection of the flow means and operates to move the receiving port of the flow means directly below the extraction port of the extractor. It is provided with an actuating means for sliding up to

Function The present invention has the above-described configuration, so that when hot water is supplied to drinking materials such as coffee, the extract is discharged from the extraction port at the center bottom, so that the extract can be uniformly taken out from the surrounding drinking materials. In addition, by operating the receiving port of the flow-down means to a position below the extraction port of the extractor by the operating means, the extract flows down the hollow interior of the flow-down means into the beverage cooling tank, and when the operating means is not activated, the extract is extracted. There is nothing blocking the beverage container at the bottom of the mouth, and the extract is dripped directly into the beverage container, allowing it to be poured into each container. Therefore, the hot extract can be stored in the beverage container hygienically without coming into contact with other objects through the extraction opening, and can be used while still hot. Furthermore, by simply operating the actuating means, the extract is guided to the beverage cooling tank and stored cooled by the cooling system, allowing for hassle-free cooling. Further, the flow-down means, which serves as a passage for the extract liquid, can be easily removed by being pulled out from the support means and is hollow with both ends open, so that it can be easily cleaned with a brush or the like, making it hygienic. Since the extract from the extractor is constructed so as to be blocked by the flowing means, the position where the pouring becomes unreliable is extremely narrow, and the pouring can be reliably done with an inexpensive structure without using a complicated mechanism.

Reference numeral 19 denotes a flow-down means, which has a receiving port 20 at its upper end that receives the extract from the extraction port 9 of the extractor 7 and is shaped like a hollow straight tube toward its lower end, with a U-shaped cross section. The pipe is vertically asymmetrical, and is inclined at 16 degrees so that the lower end is open to the beverage cooling tank 12. The upper surface of the flow down means 19 has at a predetermined position a protrusion 21 having a spherical recess in the center and rising up around the periphery at an angle of about 30 degrees. Reference numeral 22 denotes a beverage container, which is installed directly below the extraction port 9 of the extractor 7 with an opening large enough to accommodate the flow down means 19, and is detachably placed on a heat insulating plate 23 provided on the inside lower surface of the extraction box 10. It is placed on. The support means is a hollow member having an upper end opened into the brewing box 10 and a lower end opened into the beverage cooling tank 12, and has a cross-sectional shape similar to that of the pipe section of the flow down means 19. The receiving port 20 of the means 19 is held in an upwardly open state, and the straight pipe portion is held slidably at an inclination of 15 degrees. A recess is provided on the upper side of the support means 24 from the upper end to the lower end so that the protrusion 21 does not hit even if it slides, and a notch 25 is provided in a part of the recess. 2
Reference numeral 6 denotes actuating means, which has a hemispherical button 27 at one end that is pressed toward the end by a spring, is supported about the approximate center of the elongate shape as a fulcrum, and has an electromagnet 28 connected to the opposite end Z. The button 27 of the actuation means 26 is in contact with a recess in the spherical surface of the protrusion 210 of the downward flow means 19. A trap 29 in the form of a U-shaped bulge for draining water is formed on the outside of the lower surface of the tip of the receiving port 20 of the flow down means 19.

The operation of the coffee extraction cooling device configured as above will be described below.

In order to extract a beverage such as coffee, a predetermined amount of water is put into a water supply container 4, and the hot water supply means 2 is filled with water and heated. A paper filter 31 containing drinking raw material 30 (hereinafter referred to as coffee powder), which is coffee powder, is placed in the extractor 7, and the extraction box 1 is placed.
Slide it onto the rail 11 of 0 and set it, and the preparation is complete. First, we will explain how to make chilled coffee. When the electromagnet 2 is activated, Z@ of the operating means 26 is pulled and button 2 is pressed.
7 moves in the opposite direction to the fulcrum, the abutting protrusion 21 of the flow down means 19 is pushed out, and the receiving port 20 moves to a position directly below the extraction port 9. The beverage cooling tank 12 has a compressor 15
The power is turned on, and refrigerant flows into the evaporator 16, keeping it in a cooling state. Next, when an amount of water corresponding to the amount of coffee extracted is poured into the water supply container 4, hot water is pushed out from the P hot water supply means 2 to the supply port 6, and the hot water dispersed at the water sprinkling port 6 spreads evenly over 30K coffee powder and extracts the coffee liquid. Ru. The extracted coffee liquid collects in the center of the extractor 7 and flows out through the extraction port 9. The coffee liquid received at the receiving port 20 of the flow down means 19 flows down the inclined pipe into the beverage cooling tank 1.
Flows into 2. The hot coffee liquid is cooled and stored in the beverage cooling tank 12. Then, by operating the on-off valve 14, the cooled coffee flows out from the discharge port 13 and is received and used in a cup or the like.

Next, we will explain how to make hot coffee.

Z of the actuating means 26 by deactivating the electromagnet 28
The end is returned by the spring 26a, the button 27 pulls back the protrusion 21, and the receiving port 2o of the flow down means 19 is removed from directly below the extraction port 9 and drawn into the beverage cooling tank 12 side. The beverage container 21 is placed on a heat insulating plate 22. Next, the coffee liquid is extracted in the same manner as described above, and the extracted coffee liquid flows out from the extraction port 9.・This time, extractor port 9
Since there is only the beverage container 21 directly below, the spilled hot coffee liquid does not touch anything and remains hot in the beverage container 21. Hot coffee is used by lifting the beverage container 21 and pouring it into a cup or the like.

If the flow down means 19 becomes slippery due to external factors and the tip of the receiving port 2Q comes to be directly below the extraction port 9, that is, in a narrow range position that rarely occurs, part of the extracted coffee liquid will A portion tends to flow into the receiving port 20, and another portion leaks out from the tip of the receiving port 2o. This leaked coffee liquid drips from the outside of the tip of the receiving port 20, and is all dripped in the U-shaped trap 29, without flowing into the inclined pipe. Naturally, the dropped coffee liquid is stored in the beverage container 22 since it is located close to the extraction port 9, and the coffee liquid does not flow out to any place other than the beverage cooling tank 12 and the beverage container 22.

On the other hand, when a large force is applied to the flow down means 19 to pull it into the extraction box 10 with the extractor 7 removed, the pressing force of the button 27 of the actuating means 26 is exceeded and the engagement between the button 27 and the protrusion 21 is disengaged. easily pulled out.

The flow means 19 can be cleaned by itself by washing with hot water or by inserting a brush. When inserted into the support means 24 again, the flow down means 19 is easily slid by sliding until the tip of the button 27 of the actuating means 26 hits the slope around the protrusion 21 and falls into the recess inside the protrusion 21. can be set to a predetermined state.

At the time of insertion, the flow down means 19 and the support means 24 are vertically asymmetrical in cross section, so that the receiving port 2o is always inserted at the top.

The beverage cooling tank 12 keeps the extracted coffee liquid warm by turning off the power to the compressor 15 and energizing the block heater 17, and is used as an auxiliary tank for the hot coffee in the beverage container 21, providing a large amount of hot coffee. It will be done.

As described above, according to this embodiment, when hot water is supplied to the coffee grounds 30, the extract is discharged from the extraction port 9 at the center bottom, so that the extract can be uniformly taken out from the surrounding coffee grounds 30. It improves the taste of coffee and reduces the consumption of coffee powder. Further, by operating the receiving port 2o of the flow down means 19 to a position below the extraction port 9 of the extractor 7 by the actuating means 26, the extract flows down the hollow interior of the flow down means 19 into the beverage cooling tank 12, while Actuation means 2
6 does not operate, there is a beverage container 22 at the bottom of the extraction port 9.
There is no obstruction, and the extract is dripped directly into the beverage container 22 and poured into each container. Therefore, the hot extract is hygienically stored in the beverage container 22 from the extraction port 9 without coming into contact with other objects, and can be used while still hot. Further, by only operating the actuating means 26, the extract is transferred to the beverage cooling tank 12.
It is guided by the cooling system and stored cooled, allowing for hassle-free cooling. Further, the flow down means 19, which serves as a passage for the extract liquid, can be easily removed by pulling it out from the support means 24, and is hollow with both ends open, so that it can be easily cleaned with a brush or the like, and can be used hygienically. Since the extract from the extractor 7 is configured to be blocked by the flow down means 19, the position where pouring cannot be done is very narrow, and the flow down means 19 ensures reliable pouring without using a complicated mechanism at an inexpensive configuration. Can be divided. Furthermore, even in the case of poor pouring that occurs in a very narrow range of positions of the flow down means 19, the beverage cooling tank 12 and the beverage container 22
The coffee liquid will not flow out to other places and will not pollute the surrounding area. Further, since the flow down means 19 and the support means 24 have similar shapes and vertically asymmetrical cross sections, they are inserted so that the receiving opening 2o is always at the top, making it easy to use. The beverage cooling tank 12 can be used not only as a cooling tank but also as a heat retention tank, and can immediately meet the demand for a large amount of hot coffee in the beverage containers 22 or more. Furthermore, since the electromagnet 28 can be used to dispense the beverage with one touch, there is no risk of getting burned without getting your hands dirty, and since you can't touch the flow means 19 with your hands, there is a high risk of germs entering the beverage passage, making it safe and sanitary.

Next, a coffee extraction cooling device according to another embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIG. 6. FIG. 6 is a cross-sectional view of the main parts of this device, and the parts denoted by the same numbers as in FIGS. 1 to 5 have the same configuration and will not be described. The upper surface of the flow down means 19 has a plurality of gear groove-shaped protrusions 32 at predetermined positions. Reference numeral 33 denotes an actuating means, which is a circular gear, and has a support protruding from the surface of the main body 1, and a knob 34 fixed to the tip of the support. The actuation means 33 is the flow means 1
It engages with the protrusion 32 of No.9.

The operation of the coffee extraction cooling device having the above configuration will be described below. The changes from the previous embodiment, that is, the sliding operation of the flow down means 19 will be explained. When making chilled coffee based on the position shown in the figure, when the knob 34 is rotated counterclockwise from the Y position to the The receiving port 2Q is pushed out and moves to a position directly below the extraction port 9. Also, when making hot coffee, use knob 3.
4 from the X position to the Y position, the protrusion 32 engaged by the actuating means 33 is drawn toward the beverage cooling tank 12, and the receiving port 20 is removed from directly below the extraction port 9 and returned to its basic position. Return. Furthermore, when the flow means 19 is pulled out into the extraction box 10 with the extractor 7 removed, the operating means 3
3 and the knob 34 are rotated, the protrusion 32 disengages from the gear, and is easily pulled out. When the flow down means 19 is inserted into the support means 24 again, the gear of the protrusion 32 and the gear of the actuation means 33 are first engaged, and then the actuation means 33 and the knob 34 are rotated, and the flow down means 19 can be easily set to a predetermined basic state by sliding.

As described above, according to the other embodiments, dispensing can be done with one touch by rotating the knob 34, so there is no risk of getting burned without getting your hands dirty, and because you do not touch the flow means 19 with your hands, bacteria can be poured into the beverage passageway. It is safe and hygienic because there is no risk of it getting in the way, and the operating means 3 does not use expensive parts.
3 and a knob 34, it can be realized at low cost.

Effects of the Invention As described above, in the coffee extraction cooling device of the present invention, the extraction port is provided at the center bottom of the extractor, so that when hot water is supplied to the coffee or other drinking material, the extraction is carried out at the center bottom. Since it is discharged from the mouth, the extract can be taken out evenly from surrounding drinking materials, improving the taste of the beverage and reducing the consumption of drinking materials.

Further, there is a flow means having a receiving opening at the upper end and being hollow, the lower end is open to the beverage cooling tank, and a projection is provided on the surface, a support means for slidably supporting the flow means, and a projection of the flow means. Since the actuating means that engages with the actuating means is provided, the receiving port of the flow-down means can be moved to below the extraction port of the extractor by actuation of the actuation means, and the extract flows down the hollow interior of the flow-down means into the beverage cooling tank. On the other hand, by operating the actuating means to the original position, there is nothing below the extraction port that can reach the beverage container, and the extract can be dripped directly into the beverage container, allowing one-touch pouring into each container. This can be done easily. Therefore, the hot extract can be stored in the beverage container hygienically without coming into contact with other objects through the extraction opening, and can be used while still hot. Furthermore, by simply activating the actuating means, the extract is guided to the beverage cooling tank and stored in the cooling system, allowing for hassle-free cooling. Further, the flow-down means, which serves as a passage for the extract liquid, can be easily removed by pulling it out from the support means, and because it is hollow, it can be easily cleaned with a brush or the like, and can be used hygienically. Since the extract from the extractor is blocked by the flow-down means, the position where pouring cannot be achieved is extremely narrow, and the liquid can be poured reliably with an inexpensive structure without using a complicated mechanism. In addition, since the dispenser can be dispensed with a single touch by simply activating the actuating means, it is safe and sanitary because it does not leave hands dirty and there is no risk of burns, and it also prevents germs from entering the beverage aisle.

Note that the coffee extraction cooling device of the present invention is not limited to a hot water supply means for storing hot water.
