Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a moisture-proof device in a hot beverage dispensing machine.

For example, a hot coffee vending machine makes hot coffee by pouring hot water onto powdered coffee ingredients.

In this case, the powder raw material outlet is usually located above the hot water supply port, and therefore, the powder raw material absorbs the sloshing of the hot water and tends to stick to the powder raw material outlet.

If the powder raw material adheres to the delivery port, the delivery of the powder raw material will be inhibited and the housing will not be sanitary.

Therefore, conventional methods have been proposed that suck the air at the outlet of the powder raw material to prevent moisture from rising at the outlet. Therefore, it is easy for powder raw materials to be sucked in when they fall, and countermeasures are required.

The present invention is an attempt to improve these points, and it is possible to reliably prevent the powder raw material from adhering to the powder raw material delivery port due to moisture, and also to be able to stably guide the powder raw material. It is something.

Next, an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

1 is a hot water tank, and this hot water tank 1 stores a certain amount of water and heats it to a certain temperature.

Hot water is supplied to this hot water tank 1 through an electromagnetic pulp 2 through a hot water pipe 3 at the time of sale.

Reference numeral 4 denotes a raw material tank. This raw material tank 4 stores powdered raw materials such as coffee, juice, miso, etc. At the time of sale, these are delivered in fixed amounts through the outlet 5 by known means.

A steam deflector 6 is provided to cover the outlet 5, and a raw material supply lower is provided below the steam deflector 6.

Further, a blender 8 is disposed below the raw material supply lower, and a beverage supply port 10 is provided at the bottom of the blender 8.

Furthermore, the blender 8 is connected to the hot water pipe 3 .

Further, the blender 8 is provided with a mixer 9, this mixer 9 is connected to a motor 11, and a blower 12 is connected to this motor 11.

One end of the air guide pipe 13 is connected to the outlet 15 of the blower 12, and the other end of the air guide pipe 13 is connected to the wind pressure section 16 below the outlet 5 in the steam deflector 6. .

Note that a heater 14 is attached to the air guide pipe 13 to humidify the air sent to the wind pressure section 16 as necessary.

The above device is surrounded by a main body cover 17 that forms the appearance of a beverage supply machine, and a pedestal 19 on which a cup 18 is placed below the beverage supply opening 10 is provided on the main body cover 17.
is provided.

In addition, the main body cover 1 is
A duct 20 is attached as necessary so as to communicate with the outside of 7.

Next, the operation will be explained.

When a purchaser performs a predetermined operation to purchase a product, the motor 11 is driven to operate the kisser 9 and the blower 12 at the same time, and the electromagnetic pulp 2 of the hot water tank 1 is activated to send water through the hot water pipe 3. A certain amount of hot water is sent to the blender 8, and further, a certain amount of powdered raw material is fed into the blender 8 from the outlet 5 of the raw material tank 4, and the raw material and hot water are sent to the mixer 9.
The mixture is mixed and poured into cup 18.

Once a certain amount of powdered raw materials and hot water have been supplied, sales will automatically stop.

During this operation, air is blown from the blower 12 to the lower part of the outlet 5 through the air guide pipe 13, thereby increasing the internal pressure of the steam deflector 6.

Moreover, the heater 14 heats the air.

Therefore, steam does not flow into the steam deflector 6 and is exhausted to the outside from the duct 20.

According to the present invention, during operations such as sales, powder raw materials are supplied from the outlet 5 of the raw material tank 4, hot water is supplied from the hot water tank 1 through the hot water pipe 3, and the blender 8
When mixing the beverage and supplying it from the beverage supply port 10, the mixer 9 of the blender 8 is driven and at the same time the blower 1 is activated.
2 is driven and blows air through the air guide pipe 13 to the outlet 5 of the raw material tank 4 to increase the internal pressure of the steam deflector 6. In other words, the internal pressure of the steam deflector 6 at the position where steam from hot water enters is increased. When the temperature is high, steam can be prevented from flowing into the outlet port 5 of the raw material tank 4, and the powder raw material can be reliably prevented from absorbing moisture and sticking to the outlet port 5.

In addition, since the air sent to the steam deflector 6 forms an airflow from top to bottom inside the steam deflector 6, it prevents the powder raw material from adhering to the inner wall and stabilizes the powder raw material inside the steam deflector 8. can be guided reliably.

In addition, since the mixer 9 and the blower 12 are simultaneously driven by the same motor 11 during operation, the mixer 9 and the blower 12 are driven simultaneously by the same motor 11, so that air is always blown when supplying and mixing the powdered raw material and hot water, and there is no malfunction, and it is necessary to only blow air at all times. No, useless motor 11
Power consumption for driving can be reduced.
