When the brewing seat 2 moves towards the brewing head 6, the spiral curved plate 25 presses the bump 14 and compresses the spring 15, and the brewing seat 2 can pass through the bump 14. When the brewing seat 2 moves away from the brewing head 6, the spiral curved plate 25 passes through the bump block 14 again, and as the bump block 14 drives the rotating shaft 24 to rotate through the spiral curved plate 25, the rotating shaft 24 drives the scum scraping plate 23 to rotate, and the scum scraping plate 23 pushes the coffee cakes of the brewing seat 2 into the waste residue box 9. Until the bump 14 is disengaged from the spiral curve 25. A reset mechanism (such as a torsion spring) and a stop block are arranged between the slag scraping plate 23 and the brewing seat 2, the reset mechanism enables the slag scraping plate 23 to be propped against the stop block, and after the collision block 14 enables the slag scraping plate to rotate, the reset mechanism pushes the slag scraping plate 23 to reset.
The frame 1 is provided with a top block 70 and a motor 71, and the top block 70 is driven to rotate by a motor shaft of the motor 71. The ejector 70 moves to have a first position and a second position, the ejector 70 moves to the first position, the ejector 70 is retracted from the ejector 41 of the brew seat 2, and the ejector 70 moves to the second position, i.e. the ejector 70 moves to align with the ejection face 40. The top block 70 may also be moved between the first position and the second position by a translation mechanism or the like.
When the opening 31 of the brewing cup 3 is aligned with the brewing head 6, the ejector block 70 is moved to align with the ejection face 40, the brewing cup 3 is moved until the ejection face 40 of the piston 4 abuts against the ejector block 70, and the brewing cup 3 continues to move the piston 4 towards the opening 31.
The coffee funnel 8 is arranged in the frame 1, the opening 31 of the brew cup 3 is aligned with the coffee funnel 8, and the coffee funnel 8 is offset a distance slightly towards the side remote from the brew head 6. The waste cartridge 9 is arranged in the frame 1 below the brewing head 6. The brew head 6 is prior art and will not be described in detail in this embodiment.
The brewing unit operates.
Referring to fig. 1, in the initial position, the infusion seat 2 is entirely vertical, the opening 31 of the infusion cup 3 is aligned with the coffee funnel 8, the piston 4 is retracted into the infusion chamber 30 (the piston 4 is in the lowest position of the infusion chamber 30).
Referring to fig. 2, the coffee beans are ground into coffee grounds by a bean grinding assembly (not shown) of the coffee machine, and the coffee grounds enter the brew chamber 30 via the coffee funnel 8 until the coffee grounds are filled to a predetermined amount, and the bean grinding assembly stops.
Referring to fig. 3, the drive motor drives the screw 11 to rotate so that the nut 12 moves upwards, and the nut 12 drives the carrier 20 and the brewing cup 3 to move upwards together, and the boss 21 of the carrier 20 also moves in the guide groove 10. When the boss 21 moves from the lower segment 100 into the upper segment 200, the brew seat 2 rotates about the rotation axis 13, aligning the opening 31 of the brew cup 3 with the brew head 6.
The brewing cup 3 continues to move towards the brewing head 6, during which it passes over the bump 14 without the scraper 23 being activated.
Referring to fig. 4, until the brew head 6 enters the brew cup 3 from the opening 31, the piston 4 and brew head 6 cooperate to compact the coffee grounds into a cake shape, at which time the top piece 70 is moved from a first position to a second position, i.e. with one end of the top piece 70 abutting against the touch piece 300.
The brew head 6 injects hot water into the brew chamber 30 to complete the brewing of the coffee.
Referring to fig. 5 and 6, the drive motor drives the screw 11 to rotate in opposite directions to move the nut 12 downwards, and the nut 12 drives the carrier 20 and the brewing cup 3 to move downwards together. In this process, the piston 4 passes through the ejector rod 41 and is propped against the ejector block 70, the ejector rod 41 makes the ejector block 70 prop against the touch block 300, so that the piston 4 cannot move downwards, and in the process of moving the brewing cup 3 downwards, the piston 4 moves upwards relative to the brewing cup 3, that is, the piston 4 pushes the coffee cake to move out of the opening 31, and meanwhile, the ejector rod 41 of the piston 4 drives the driving wheel 5 to rotate anticlockwise, that is, the swing rod 51 rotates downwards. The top block 70 moves from the second position to the first position.
With reference to fig. 7, the infusion cup 3 continues to move downwards, the bump 14 will abut against the spiral curved plate 25, moving the scraper 23 to push the coffee cake away from the infusion seat 2, which falls into the waste bin 9.
Referring to fig. 8, until the swing link 51 contacts the contact surface 301 of the contact block 300, the brewing cup 3 continues to move downward, the swing link 51 is blocked by the contact block 300, and the swing link 51 rotates the driving wheel 5 clockwise, so that the piston 4 is retracted to the lowest position in the brewing chamber 30. When the stud 21 moves from the upper section 200 into the lower section 100, the brew seat 2 rotates about the rotation axis 13, realigning the opening 31 of the brew cup 3 with the coffee funnel 8.
It should be noted that the coffee machine includes an electric control device, and the above-mentioned process can be automatically completed by control of the electric control device through a preset program.
