Description

饮料冲煮设备的计量容积补充给水装置 本申请要求于 2009年 11月 2日提交中国专利局、 申请号为 200910211223.1、 发明名称为 "饮料冲煮设备的计量容积补充给水装置" 的中国专利申请的优先 权, 其全部内容通过引用结合在本申请中。
技术领域
本发明涉及饮料冲煮设备领域,特别涉及一种饮料冲煮设备的计量容积补 充给水装置。
背景技术
饮料冲煮设备被运用在冲煮咖啡、 茶或其它饮品。 如图 6 所示的常用饮 料冲煮设备, 主要包括一供水泵浦 80、 一主锅炉 81、 一热交换器 82和一冲煮单 元 83。 利用该供水泵浦 80供应外界水源至该主锅炉 81内, 并由一水位侦测器 84 控制该供水泵浦 80和锅炉进水电磁阀 95的启闭,使主锅炉 81内的水位保持在一 设定范围内; 利用一蒸汽压力侦测器 85控制一加热器 86的启闭, 以对该主锅炉 81内的储水进行加热, 使其保持在一设定的蒸汽压力范围(即一设定温度范围) 内。
进行饮料冲煮程序时, 该供水泵浦 80和一冲煮电磁阀 87被操作而启动, 将 外界水源经过一冷水供应管 88, 再依次经过一泄压单向阀 89和一流量计 90, 送 入穿过主锅炉 81的热交换器 82内, 利用该主锅炉 81内的热水和蒸汽, 将热交换 器 82内的外界水源加热成一热水,该热水水流再经由一热水供应管 91流入该冲 煮单元 83 , 并通过被开启的冲煮电磁阀 87 , 向下流入一预置有待冲煮饮品材料 的滤泡杯 92内进行冲煮, 冲煮后的冲煮液流出至一饮料盛杯 94内; 当该流量计 90计量至一设定流量时, 实时关闭该冲煮电磁阀 87 , 完成设定流量的饮料冲煮 程序。
当该饮料冲煮设备处于不进行饮料冲煮程序的待机阶段时, 该热交换器 82 内的热水因热挥发产生蒸汽, 经由该热水供应管 91流入该冲煮单元 83内, 由于 待机阶段时该冲煮电磁阀 87呈关闭状态, 因此该蒸汽与冲煮单元 83进行热交换 将该冲煮单元 83预热至一工作温度后, 蒸汽因与冲煮单元 83热交换而变成凝结 水, 凝结水由一回流管 93回流至该热交换器 82内, 形成一预热循环。
若欲使用上述常用饮料冲煮设备冲煮出一大体积的饮品(例如 360 cc或 500 cc体积的饮品)时, 通常会利用下列二种方法来进行:
一、 大体积饮品完全是通过该冲煮单元 83直接冲煮完成; 以及
二、 仅利用该冲煮单元 83冲煮出一较小体积的浓缩液后, 再额外添加热水 (即俗称的 "对热水" 的动作), 将体积调整至所需的体积。
由于现有冲煮设备仅能运用上述冲煮方式调整至所需要的体积以及所需 要的浓度, 因此具有下列缺点:
一、 完全通过该冲煮单元 83直接冲煮出所需要的大体积饮品, 所得的饮品 温度太高, 在商业上使用时, 必须考虑到消费者直接饮用时, 会有被烫伤的危 险, 或者要求消费者要等待饮品降温后才能饮用, 又有饮用上不方便的问题; 二、 仅利用该冲煮单元 83冲煮出一较小体积的浓缩液后, 再用手动方式额 外添加热水, 不但操作不便且饮料产值效率不佳; 以及
三、 各种饮品的冲煮皆有其特定较佳的冲煮时间来达到其最佳风味, 现有 技术的冲煮设备通常仅有单一流量功能, 因此若要通过该冲煮单元 83直接冲煮 出所需要的大体积饮品, 必然要延长冲煮时间, 造成冲煮所得的大体积饮品往 往会丧失其最佳风味。
为解决上述问题, 本发明申请人提出申请并获准的中国专利申请号为 200820008110.2的专利 (下称引证专利), 提供了一种浓淡两用控温冲煮机构, 其包括一泵浦; 一与该泵浦连接的加热装置; 一热交换器, 其设在该加热装置 内并且与该泵浦连接; 以及一与该热交换器相连接的冲煮单元; 以及一补给单 元, 其可以将进入热交换器之前以及流出热交换器之后的水引流出, 以供调整 由冲煮单元冲煮所得的饮品的最终体积和温度。 引证专利的冲煮机构可以通过 冲煮单元直接冲煮一饮品, 或通过该补给单元调整冲煮饮品的体积和温度。 综 上所述, 引证专利的冲煮机构同时具备有可供冲煮具有一控制的温度的浓、 淡 饮品的功能。
其中该补给单元连接在一冷水管组件并且具有一补给管、 一冷水节流阀以 及一电磁阀,其中该补给管是由该冷水管组件延伸出并在远离冷水管组件处形 成一补给口, 该冷水节流阀设在补给管上, 以及电磁阀设在补给管上; 以及一 歧管, 其一端连接在一热水供应管上, 另一端连接在冷水节流阀与电磁阀之间 的补给管上, 该歧管上设有一热水节流阀。
引证专利可供使用在冲煮一般体积的浓饮品或者大体积的淡饮品, 并且可 以有效率地提供一具有所需要温度的大体积淡饮品等。 然而引证专利仍存在如 下问题:
一、在使用冲煮单元进行饮料冲煮程序时,补给管上的电磁阀呈关闭状态, 经热交换器加热后的热水经由该热水供应管流入该冲煮单元进行饮料冲煮 , 这 样部份冷水也将经由该补给管和歧管, 流入该热水供应管内, 与该热水供应管 内原有的热水相互混合, 导致最后流入该冲煮单元的冲煮用水流, 为一未达最 佳冲煮温度的冷水 /热水混合水流, 造成冲煮后饮料丧失其最佳风味; 以及 二、 引证专利虽然在其补给管和歧管上, 分别设有调节流量的冷水节流阀 和热水节流阀, 经调节流量后的冷水 /热水混合水流, 由该补给口流出至饮料 盛杯内, 以调整饮料的浓度和温度, 但是其冷水节流阀和热水节流阀依出厂设 定参数进行节流, 即其冷水和热水依一固定比例混合, 由于不同种类饮料 (例 如咖啡和茶)的最佳适饮温度和浓度各不相同, 因此引证专利以固定比例混合 至一固定温度的补给水流, 无法将二种以上不同种类的饮料分别调制至一最佳 适饮温度和浓度。 发明内容
本发明的目的在于提供一种饮料冲煮设备的计量容积补充给水装置, 其可 将计量容积和设定温度的补给水, 自动注入完成冲煮后的饮料内, 以增加该饮 料的容积, 并将该饮料调整至最佳适饮温度和浓度。
本发明的次一目的在于提供一种饮料冲煮设备的计量容积补充给水装置, 其在执行饮料冲煮程序时, 可有效防止补给水流入热水供应管中, 避免热水供 应管内的冲煮用热水被补给水冲冷, 从而可保持最佳冲煮温度。
本发明的另一目的在于提供一种饮料冲煮设备的计量容积补充给水装置, 其可依据饮料的种类, 改变该补给水的流量和温度, 使不同种类的饮料 (例如 咖啡和茶), 均可被该适温适量的补给水, 调整至最佳适饮温度和浓度。
本发明的又一目的在于提供一种饮料冲煮设备的计量容积补充给水装置, 其可选择先将冷水和热水预先混合成适当温度的补给水, 自动注入完成冲煮后 的饮料内;也可控制将冷水和热水在不同时间,分别注入完成冲煮后的饮料内。
本发明实施例提供了一种可达到上述发明目的的饮料冲煮设备的计量容 积补充给水装置, 其中该饮料冲煮设备包括一冷水供应管、 一将该冷水加热至 一设定温度的热交换器、 一用于进行饮料冲煮程序的冲煮单元、 以及一将经该 热交换器加热后的热水输送至该冲煮单元的热水供应管; 该计量容积补充给水 装置包括: 一与该冷水供应管连接可引流出冷水的冷水歧管; 一控制该冷水歧 管启闭的冷水电磁阀; 一与该热水供应管连接可引流出热水的热水歧管; 一控 制该热水歧管启闭的热水电磁阀; 以及一分别与该冷水歧管和热水歧管连接的 给水管, 用于将该冷水和热水分别注入完成冲煮后的饮料内。
进一步地, 该冷水歧管上还设置有一用于调整该补给用冷水流量的冷水节 流阀。

为使本发明的目的、 技术方案和优点更加清楚, 下面将结合附图对本发明 实施方式作进一步地详细描述。
参见图 1 , 为本发明所提供的饮料冲煮设备的计量容积补充给水装置第一 实施例与饮料冲煮设备配合实施的立体组合视图, 该计量容积补充给水装置可 将计量容积和设定温度的补给水, 自动注入完成冲煮后的饮料内, 以增加该饮 料的容积, 并将该饮料调整至最佳适饮温度和浓度。
该饮料冲煮设备包括一冷水供应管 88、 一将该冷水加热至一设定温度的热 交换器 82、 一用于进行饮料冲煮程序的冲煮单元 83、 以及一将经该热交换器 82 加热后的热水输送至该冲煮单元 83的热水供应管 91。 该饮料冲煮设备还包括: 一供水泵浦 80、 一锅炉进水电磁阀 95、 一主锅炉 81、 一水位侦测器 84、 一蒸汽 压力侦测器 85、 一加热器 86、 一冲煮电磁阀 87、 一泄压单向阀 89、 一流量计 90、 一滤泡杯 92、 一回流管 93等, 其构成特征及操作方式与前述如图 6所示的常用 饮料冲煮设备大致相同, 此处不再赘述。 由该饮料冲煮设备完成冲煮后的饮料 流入一饮料盛杯 94内储存。
本发明实施例的饮料冲煮设备还包括一计量容积补充给水装置, 可将计量 容积和设定温度的补给水, 自动注入完成冲煮后的饮料内。 该计量容积补充给 水装置包括: 一与该冷水供应管 88连接可引流出冷水的冷水歧管 10; —控制该 冷水歧管 10启闭的冷水电磁阀 11 ; 一与该热水供应管 91连接可引流出热水的热 水歧管 20; —控制该热水歧管 20启闭的热水电磁阀 21 ; 以及一分别与该冷水歧 管 10和热水歧管 20连接的给水管 30, 用于将该冷水和热水分别注入完成冲煮后 的饮料内。
当进行饮料冲煮程序时, 该冷水电磁阀 11和热水电磁阀 21均呈关闭状态, 使该冷水供应管 88内的冷水仅能流入该热交换器 82内进行加热,加热后的热水 经由该热水供应管 91流入该冲煮单元 83 , 进行饮料冲煮程序。
如果使用者预先经由一控制面板 (图中未示出)设定补给水流程序, 则在该 冲煮单元 83完成饮料冲煮程序后, 经由程序控制使该冷水电磁阀 11和 /或热水 电磁阀 21同时或分别开启导通,使得冷水歧管 10内的补给冷水和 /或热水歧管 20内的补给热水, 同时或分别经由该给水管 30自动注入完成冲煮后的饮料内, 以增加该饮料的容积, 并将该饮料调整至最佳适饮温度和浓度。
上述的补给水流程序, 由该流量计 90计量至一预先设定的流量时自动停 止。
使用者可依据饮料种类和客户需求等不同状况,预先设定下列不同的补给 水流程序:
一、 补给热水: 进行补给水流程序时, 仅开启导通该热水电磁阀 21 , 使热 水歧管 20内的补给热水, 经由该给水管 30自动注入完成冲煮后的饮料内, 以增 加该饮料的容积, 降低饮料的浓度, 但不改变饮料的温度。
二、 补给冷水: 进行补给水流程序时, 仅开启导通该冷水电磁阀 21 , 使冷 水歧管 20内的补给冷水, 经由该给水管 30自动注入完成冲煮后的饮料内, 以增 加该饮料的容积, 同时降低饮料的浓度和温度。
三、 补给温水: 进行补给水流程序时, 同时开启导通该冷水电磁阀 11和热 水电磁阀 21 , 使冷水歧管 10内的补给冷水和热水歧管 20内的补给热水, 在该给 水管 30内被混合成一适当温度的温水后, 自动注入完成冲煮后的饮料内, 以增 加该饮料的容积, 同时降低饮料的浓度和温度。
其中, 该冷水电磁阀 11和热水电磁阀 21可分别由程序控制其开启时间长短 和开启时机, 以依据饮料种类, 将饮料调整至最适于饮用的浓度和温度。
本发明一优选实施例中, 该冷水歧管 10上还设置有一用于调整该补给用冷 水流量的冷水节流阀 12。该热水歧管 20上还设置有一用于调整该补给用热水流 量的热水节流阀 22。该给水管 30上还设置有一用于调整该补给水流量的给水节 流阀 32。 上述各节流阀 12、 22、 32 , 用于更精确地控制补给水流的流量, 并可 防止因补给水流过大使饮料盛杯 94内的饮料溅出。
上述各节流阀 12、 22、 32可为具有固定开度的固定式节流阀, 也可为可调 整开度的可变式节流阀, 以分别调整补给注入饮料内的冷水和 /或热水的最适 合补给流量。
参见图 2 , 为本发明计量容积补充给水装置第二实施例的立体示意图, 该 给水管 30可选择设置有一给水电磁阀 31 ,作为进行补给水程序时的补给水总开 关。 在设有给水电磁阀 31的情形下, 该冷水歧管 10上的冷水电磁阀 11可被选择 性地省略。
参见图 3 , 为本发明计量容积补充给水装置第三实施例的立体示意图, 该 给水管 30可选择设置有一给水电磁阀 31 ,作为进行补给水程序时的补给水总开 关。 在设有给水电磁阀 31的情形下, 该热水歧管 20上的热水电磁阀 21可被选择 性地省略。
如图 2和图 3所示的实施例中, 即使在给水管 30上设置有一作为补给水总开 关的给水电磁阀 31时, 该相互连通的冷水歧管 10和热水歧管 20上, 仍需设置至 少一个冷水电磁阀 11或热水电磁阀 21 , 在进行前述的饮料冲煮程序时, 该冷水 电磁阀 11或热水电磁阀 21被控制保持在关闭状态,使冷水歧管 10内的冷水不会 经由热水歧管 20流入热水供应管 91内,避免热水供应管 91内的冲煮用热水被冲 冷, 从而可保持最佳冲煮温度。
参见图 4 , 为本发明计量容积补充给水装置第四实施例的立体示意图, 该 冷水歧管 10上还设置有至少二组并联平行排列的冷水分管 40、 50 , 每一组冷水 分管 40、 50上分别设置有一控制其启闭的冷水分管电磁阀 41、 51以及一具有不 同预设开度的冷水分管节流阀 42、 52。对不同种类的饮料进行补给水流程序时, 可由程序控制选择一组冷水分管, 开启其冷水分管电磁阀, 其余各组冷水分管 电磁阀均被关闭; 使冷水歧管 10内的补给冷水仅流入被选择的冷水分管内, 再 由其具有最适开度的冷水分管节流阀节流, 并由其被开启的冷水分管电磁阀流 出至该给水管 30内, 使之与该热水歧管 20流出的补给热水, 预先混合成最适于 该饮料饮用温度的温水。
参见图 5 , 为本发明计量容积补充给水装置第五实施例的立体示意图, 其 中设在该给水管 30上的给水节流阀可由一具有固定开度的给水节流接头 33取 代。
本发明实施例中所使用的节流阀可选用固定式节流阀、 可变式节流阀或节 流接头中之一。
本发明实施例所提供的饮料冲煮设备的计量容积补充给水装置, 可将计量 容积和设定温度的补给水, 自动注入完成冲煮后的饮料内, 以增加该饮料的容 积, 并将该饮料调整至最佳适饮温度和浓度; 在执行饮料冲煮程序时, 可有效 地防止补给水流入热水供应管中, 避免热水供应管内的冲煮用热水被补给水冲 冷, 从而可保持最佳冲煮温度; 可依据饮料的种类, 改变该补给水的流量和温 度, 使不同种类的饮料 (例如咖啡和茶), 均可被适温适量的补给水, 调整至最 佳适饮温度和浓度; 以及可选择先将冷水和热水预先混合成适当温度的补给 水, 自动注入完成冲煮后的饮料内; 也可控制将冷水和热水在不同时间, 分别 注入完成冲煮后的饮料内。 以上实施例提供的技术方案中的全部或部分内容可以通过软件编程实现, 其软件程序存储在可读取的存储介质中, 存储介质例如: 计算机中的硬盘、 光 盘或软盘。
以上所述仅为本发明的较佳实施例, 并不用以限制本发明, 凡在本发明的 精神和原则之内, 所作的任何修改、 等同替换、 改进等, 均应包含在本发明的 保护范围之内。
