Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a milk mixer that can instantly mix infant milk from powdered milk at an appropriate temperature.

Milk mixers have conventionally been available that can supply powdered milk and hot water in appropriate amounts, but they need to be cooled to an appropriate temperature, making them particularly inconvenient in the summer.

Generally, the optimum temperature for breastfeeding is around 37 degrees Celsius, which is too low to dissolve powdered milk, and the optimum temperature for breastfeeding is usually around 50 degrees Celsius.

In view of the above points, the present invention provides a hot water storage tank 2 for a milk blender.
Divided into tanks, one for high temperatures (e.g. 50 degrees) and the other for low temperatures (e.g. 30 degrees), first supply 1/2 of the required amount of hot water from the high temperature tank, dissolve the powdered milk, then pour the remaining 1 The first objective is to provide a milk mixer that can immediately prepare milk at an appropriate temperature without supplementing the temperature with low-temperature hot water, and also applies high-speed microvibrations to the bottom end of the baby bottle by holding the top end of the bottle. A second object of the present invention is to provide a milk mixer that can instantly dissolve powdered milk in hot water by stirring the powdered milk from the outside, and that can be easily attached and detached without the baby bottle falling off. It is.

The structure of the milk mixer of the present invention will be explained in detail below with reference to embodiment figures.

In Figure 1, 1 is a hot water storage tank cover, 2 is a hot water storage tank, and the interior is divided into two tanks, A room and B room, as shown in Figure 2, and there is an air gap between the two rooms for insulation. 38 is provided.

3 is a pusher used when attaching and detaching the hot water storage tank 2 from the main body 31, and 4, 5, 6, and 7 are floats that are used to flow or stop hot water in rooms A and B when attaching or removing the hot water tank from the main body. This is a float cover that prevents the float from flying out.

8 and 9, the hot water in rooms A and B is kept at a constant temperature of 50℃ and 30℃
It is a heater with a temperature control device to keep it warm.

37 is a seal to prevent water leakage when installing the tank, 10,
11 is a pipe that leads hot water from rooms A and B to the pump, 12゜1
3 is a pump that forcibly supplies the hot water from the pipes 10 and 11 to the pipes 14 and 15, and 16 and 17 are nozzles that lead the hot water to the milk container.

18 is a milk container, 19 is a milk container holding claw that engages with the neck of the milk container to hold the milk container, rotates around a pin 21, and is detachable in the direction of the arrow; 20 is the body of the milk container. a rocking lever which is fitted onto the outside and causes the milk container to vibrate slightly at high speed in the direction of the arrow in FIG. 3; 22 is the rotating shaft of the rocking lever; 23 is a drive rod; 24 is an eccentric gear;
26 is a motor mounting stand and a bearing stand, and 27 is a drive motor.

28 is a powdered milk measuring hopper, 29 is a cover that prevents dirt, flakes, or moisture from entering the powdered milk container, 30 is a nozzle holder, 31 is the main body, 32 to 35 are operation buttons, and 32 is "
32 is a ``stirring'' button, 34 is a ``low temperature hot water'' button, 35 is a ``off'' button, and 36 is a power cord.

Next, the operating state of the milk mixer according to the present invention will be explained.

First, measure about 600 to 900 cc of boiled water and the powdered milk necessary for one feeding, put them into the hot water storage tank 2 and the powdered milk measuring container 28, and set them in the predetermined positions.
The covers 1 and 29 are attached, and the power cord 36 is inserted into the socket.

When it's time to breastfeed, use a sterilized milk container (baby bottle) 1
8 to the milk container holding claw 19 and the swinging lever 20.
Insert from the direction of the arrow in the figure.

Next, when the "high temperature water" button 32 is pressed, the hot water in room A of the hot water storage tank 2 (kept at 50°C) is forced through the float 4, the float cover 6, and the pipe 10 by the pump 12. 14, the nozzle holder 30, and the nozzle 16 to be supplied to the milk container 18.

When the amount of milk reaches 1/2, release the push button 32 to stop the hot water.

Next, when you press the "stir" button 33 (the button is self-held), the rotation of the drive motor 27 is caused by the pinion 25 integrated with the motor shaft, the eccentric gear 24, the drive shaft 23, and the swing lever 20.
This causes the milk container 18 to vibrate around the rotating shaft 22, changing from a rotational motion to a high-speed transverse vibration.

Next, the powdered milk measuring hopper 28 is rotated together with the cover 29, and the powdered milk in the hopper is poured into the milk container 18 through the nozzle holder 30.

After pouring, return the powdered milk measuring hopper 28 to its original position.

After stirring for a predetermined period of time (30 seconds to 60 seconds), when the "low temperature water" button 34 is pressed, the "stir" button 33 returns to its original state and the stirring stops.

Furthermore, the "low temperature bath" button 34 is held down until the specified breastfeeding amount is reached.

When the specified amount is filled, release the "low temperature water" button 34.

Hold the milk container 18 between the milk container holding claw 19 and the swing lever 2.
If you take it out in the direction of the arrow in Figure 1 from 0, you will have milk at just the right temperature (37°C to 40°C).

FIG. 4 is a plan view of the swing lever 20. The lever 20 is made of an elastic material such as plastic or hard rubber, and has a C-shaped milk container gripping portion 39 at its tip.

The opening of the C-shaped portion 39 is narrower than the diameter of the baby bottle, and the bottle is attached and detached using the elasticity of the lever.

The lever 20 rotates around a rotating shaft 22 and is connected to an eccentric gear 24.
The drive rod 23 rotates at high speed while engaging with the elongated hole 40, causing the lever 20 to vibrate slightly.

The effects of the present invention are as follows.

In other words, when making milk, first fill a baby bottle with hot water that is about 1/2 the amount of water you want to drink, then add powdered milk little by little into the water and stir while mechanically applying high-speed microvibrations from outside the bottle. As a result, the powdered milk is completely dissolved in hot water, resulting in a uniform, lump-free milk.

In addition, if you put it in a low-temperature water storage tank that has been boiled in advance, you can always take out the desired amount of hot water (50℃) for dissolving powdered milk and cold water (30℃) with the touch of a button.
It can be brought to a temperature (mother's body temperature) that is comfortable for infants to drink in a short time.

In other words, 1/2 of the amount to be drunk is made into melting water (50°C), and the remaining 1/2 is made into warm water (30°C), and when mixed together, the temperature reaches about 40°C.

Since it can be prepared just before breastfeeding, it is hygienic and prevents the growth of bacteria.

In addition, since the milk container is removable, it can be removed and cleaned and sterilized each time, making it hygienic.

In addition, there is a swinging lever that is formed into a C-shape in plan with an opening on the front side and is fitted onto the body of the baby bottle and can be driven to swing freely, and the neck of the baby bottle is removably engaged from the front side to swing and rotate. By providing a flexible milk container holding claw, by inserting the baby bottle from the front, the milk container holding claw can be engaged with the neck, and the swing lever can be fitted onto the body of the baby bottle. You can easily attach and detach the
Moreover, the swinging lever fitted on the body of the baby bottle is swung to vibrate the baby bottle, while the milk container holding claw that engages and supports the neck of the baby bottle swings and rotates in accordance with this vibration. To prevent a milk container holding claw from disengaging from the neck of a baby bottle, and to prevent the baby bottle from being unsupported when the baby bottle vibrates.
