In addition, the present invention correspondingly also provides a beverage machine including a brewing device 100. The beverage machine includes a liquid supply system to deliver liquid into the capsule 200 to brew the beverage, and the beverage machine may also include an air supply system to blow air into the capsule 200 after the beverage is brewed, so as to remove the remaining liquid in the capsule 200 Blow out and so on. In addition, the beverage machine includes a brewing device mounting seat, and the brewing device 100 can be fixedly mounted on the brewing device mounting seat, or of course, can also be detachably mounted on the brewing device mounting seat.

In the present invention, the capsule 200 is put into the brewing device 100 through the capsule insertion port 23, the capsule 200 is fixed by the capsule fixing bracket 3, and the capsule breaking mechanism 4 can apply a force to the cup edge 211 of the capsule 200. , By forming a relative movement between the capsule fixing bracket 3 and the capsule breaking mechanism 4, the capsule breaking mechanism 4 can be torn at the cup edge of the capsule 200 by the force exerted on the cup edge flank 211 The top outlet 230 of the capsule. With this arrangement, compared to the traditional brewing device 100 piercing the capsule 200 with an external piercing needle arranged outside the capsule to form a beverage outlet for the beverage to flow out, in the present technical solution, a peeling method is creatively used in the capsule 200 The top of the capsule forms the top outlet 230 of the capsule for the beverage to flow out. Because the capsule breaking mechanism 4 only exerts a force on the flanging edge 211 of the cup edge of the capsule 200, it will not directly contact the beverage, that is, the beverage will not adhere To the capsule breaking mechanism 4, in this way, the capsule breaking mechanism 4 will not pollute the next brewed beverage during the next tearing and peeling process, which encourages users to enjoy the brewed beverage hygienically and safely. Conducive to improving the user experience. In addition, in the traditional brewing device 100, the beverage remaining on the external lancet is also more likely to emit unpleasant odors (such as rancidity, etc.). Therefore, in the present technical solution, the beverage is formed by peeling The outlet 230 at the top of the capsule where the beverage flows out can also prevent the brewing device 100 and even the beverage machine from emitting bad smells that are unpleasant to the user, and can bring a better user experience to the user.

Wherein, a capsule guiding notch 231 is formed on the periphery of the insertion opening of the capsule insertion opening 23 that is adapted to the cup flange flank 211, so that the cup of the capsule 200 is inserted into the corresponding capsule guide notch 231 in alignment with the cup rim flange 211.
