The power unit M may be provided as an electric motor or as a device such as a spring, but will be described based on being provided as an electric motor. The power unit (M) may be provided with a storage battery inside the roof unit 300 or inside the body unit 100 to supply power, or electrically connected to the outside so that it can be driven by receiving power from external power. When a means (adapter) for receiving electricity from external power is provided inside the body portion 100, the adapter is electrically connected to the power unit M of the loop portion 300 through the pole portion 200 through a wire, can be driven The power unit (M) rotates (R1) based on a vertical axis perpendicular to the body portion 100, the bottle portion 400, or the ground.

When the rotating part 310 inside the loop part 300 brews the car through the entire motion, the rotational movement of the rotating part 310 inside the loop part 300 is not noticed with the naked eye. Accordingly, a light emitting unit 301 may be further provided so that the mechanical operation can be confirmed with the naked eye. When the light emitting part 301 is provided inside the loop part 300, it is preferable that the roof part 300 is made of a translucent material. In addition, when the rotating unit 310 rotates a number of times designated by the user in advance, it is provided to emit light in a different color, so that the time when the car is cooled can be checked with the naked eye. By applying this, if the number of times specified in advance is divided into multiple times and specified, the difference in concentration can be identified as a color.

The bottle part 400 is located on the upper surface of the body part 100, and a space capable of accommodating a liquid, for example, water (W) is formed therein. The bottle unit 400 may have various shapes, such as a general cup-shaped bottle or a kettle-shaped bottle. The floating part 500 is provided in the water W accommodated in the bottle part 400 .

The floating part 500 is located inside the bottle part 400 and has a predetermined buoyancy, so that it floats on the water surface of the received water (W). The floating part 500 can be implemented to float on the surface of the water by using a material that can float or a space capable of accommodating air therein. For example, the floating part 500 may have a cylindrical, elliptical, or spherical shape in which a predetermined space in which air can be located is formed. In addition, the floating part 500 may be provided to be divided into a first floating part 510 located on the upper side and a second floating part 520 located on the lower side. The first floating part 510 and the second floating part 520 may be provided to be airtight when fastened to each other, and between the first floating part 510 and the second floating part 520, the stage of the strainer 700 described below may be provided. It can also be used as a means of fixing the strainer 700 by overlapping and combining them together.

The strainer 700 is located below the floating part 500, and an object of rain forest such as tea or coffee is accommodated therein. The strainer 700 may be implemented to be detachably attached to the floating part 500, and may be detachably provided to the floating part 500 in various ways such as magnets, fittings, banding, or clips. In addition, when the floating part 500 is partitioned into the first floating part 510 and the second floating part 520, it may be implemented to be fixed by being interposed therebetween and coupled together. Since the floating part 500 floats on the water surface of the bottle part 400, the strainer 700 located on the bottom of the floating part 500 is located in the water surface.

The floating part 500 may be provided with a tubular stopper 530 penetrating the inside upwardly. Due to this, the inside of the floating part 500 may be depressurized to prevent damage caused by expansion of the air in the inner space of the floating part 500 . When the floating part 500 is divided into a first floating part 510 and a second floating part 520, a through hole is formed on the upper surface of the first floating part 510 located on the upper side, and a tubular stopper is formed in the through hole. Part 530 may be inserted through. The stopper 530 may be made of a silicone material so as to be harmless to the human body when reacting with a liquid such as water or oil (W) accommodated inside the bottle part 400 .

The rotating piece 600 is provided in the floating part 500 and rotates in response to the magnetism of the first magnet part M1 which rotates with magnetic force. The rotating piece 600 may be made of a magnetic material or a magnet material, and is positioned on one side to be biased toward the floating part 500 . At this time, it is most preferable that the deflection is installed so as to be positioned on a vertical line corresponding to the rotating first magnet part M1. The rotation piece 600 may further include a cover made of silicon, through which impurities may be prevented from coming into contact with the brewed tea when in contact with tea or water (W). When the rotating piece 600 is installed to be deflected as described above, the rotating portion 310 of the loop portion 300 rotates the first magnet portion M1 through a rotational motion by the magnetic force of the first magnet portion M1. The rotating piece 600 is rotated together. In detail, the rotating piece 600 is installed to be biased on the floating part 500 floating on the surface of the water (W) of the bottle part 400, and the rotating piece 600 rotates the first magnet part M1. By rotating along with the movement, the floating part 500 is rotated. As the floating part 500 is rotated, the coffee or tea T inside the strainer 700 located below the floating part 500 can be steeped in the water W more quickly and evenly. That is, since the floating part 500 can be rotated in response to the rotational motion of the rotating part 310 and the first magnet part M1, the user does not have to manually stir and brew tea or coffee. You can do a rain forest.

On the other hand, the rotating piece 600 may be implemented such that a rod-shaped silicon cover is provided and a magnetic body or magnetic material is located inside so as to be deflected at one end. In addition, when the stopper 530 is provided, the rotating piece 600 may be inserted and fixed into the stopper 530 in a lateral direction. A through hole is formed on the side of the stopper 530 and the rotating piece 600 is interposed in the through hole, but by interposing only a part thereof, the floating part 500 can be positioned so as to be biased when viewed from the center.

On the other hand, as an additional example, the strainer 700 may have a tension unit 710 formed on the lower surface. In detail, a tension unit 710 provided in a plate shape and made of a magnetic material may be formed on the bottom surface of the strainer 700 . In addition, a plate-shaped second magnet part M2 may be further provided on the upper surface of the body part 100 . The second magnet part M2 may be provided as a magnet or an electromagnet. When provided as described above, the tension unit 710 is moved downward by the magnetic force of the second magnet unit M2. Therefore, since the lower surface of the strainer 700 is moved in the downward direction, the strainer 700 can maintain the tension in the downward direction even when the floating part 500 is rotated.

In addition, as an additional example, when oil is accommodated in the bottle portion 400 and an object to be splashed inside the strainer 700 is accommodated, the inside of the bottle portion 400 between the upper surface of the body portion 100 and the bottle portion 400 A heating means capable of heating oil may be further provided. The heating means may be provided to be directly connected to external power and detachably provided, or provided integrally with the body portion 100 and electrically connected to an adapter connected to external power provided inside the body portion 100. . In the case of being detachably provided like the former, the former is the most preferable because it can be used for brewing tea or for frying or both.
