A beverage brewing device 2 according to embodiments of the present disclosure will be described firstly in the following with reference to FIGS. 1-3.

Referring to FIGS. 1-3, the beverage brewing device 2 includes a barrel body 21 for containing a beverage capsule, and a cover body 22 fitted with the barrel body 21. In this case, the cover body 22 is optionally in hinged connection to the barrel body 21, such that the cover body 22 can rotate with respect to the barrel body 21. In order to pierce the beverage capsule during brewage of the beverage, in the present embodiment, an inner bottom end of the barrel body 21 and the cover body 22 are separately provided with a piercing needle 23 for piercing the beverage capsule. When the cover body 21 is closed, referring to FIG. 1, the piercing needles 23 pierce an upper end and a lower end of the capsule, thereby facilitating the subsequent brewage of the beverage.

Preferably, when the cover body 22 is closed, referring to FIG. 1, the piercing needle 23 at the inner bottom end of the barrel body 21 and the piercing needle 23 on the cover body 22 are arranged along different straight lines, and pierce the upper and lower ends of the beverage capsule. The piercing needle 23 at the inner bottom end of the barrel body 21 (the piercing needle 23 located below) and the piercing needle 23 on the cover body 22 (the piercing needle 23 located above) are arranged along the different straight lines in an axial direction, such that when liquids enter from a water inlet 25 of the piercing needle 23 on the cover body 22, the liquids can be intensively mixed with a beverage ingredient in the beverage capsule.

Further, in the beverage brewing device 2, a central section of the piercing needle 23 on the cover body 22 is hollow and forms the water inlet 25. During the brewage of the beverage, the piercing needle 23 firstly pierces the capsule; the beverage machine 100 conveys water and allows hot water to be injected into the capsule in the beverage brewing device 2 from the water inlet 25 of the piercing needle 23; and finally the beverage flows out from a beverage outlet 26 at the bottom end of the barrel body 21.

It should be noted that, the water inlet 25 is disposed in the piercing needle 23, such that the hot water can directly enter the capsule instead of an inner cavity of the beverage brewing device 2, and hence after the beverage production is completed, it is only necessary to clean the beverage outlet 26 rather than the inner cavity of the beverage brewing device 2.

On that basis, the piercing needle 23 on the cover body 22 is seal-fitted with the beverage capsule through a sealing unit, thereby further preventing the beverage from entering the inner cavity of the beverage brewing device 2 from a top pierced hole. In this case, a sealing ring 24 is optionally adopted, which is fitted over the piercing needle 23 on the cover body 22 and is arranged coaxially with the piercing needle 23. Certainly, apart from the sealing ring 24, other common sealing structures can also be adopted in the present embodiment.

In addition, for convenience of connection to a machine nose 12 of a beverage machine body 1, the cover body 22 of the beverage brewing device 2 in the present embodiment is provided with a connector 27 connected to the beverage machine body 1. The connector 27 is fluidly connected to the piercing needle 23 on the cover body 22, and allows the water to enter the water inlet 25 through the connector 27. In this case, the connector 27 is integrally formed with the cover body 22, thereby simplifying the manufacturing process.

It is worth mentioning that the connector 27 connected to the beverage machine body 1 can also be formed and obtained by extending the piercing needle 23 to an upper surface of the cover body 22, in which case the beverage brewing device 2 has a simple structure and is easy to manufacture as well. If the connector 27 is integrally formed with the cover body 22, i.e., the piercing needle 23 is integrally formed with the cover body, the manufacturing process can be simplified to a greater extent. Certainly, regardless of a relationship between the piercing needle 23 and the connector 27, the piercing needle 23 can be integrally formed with the cover body 22, or the piercing needle 23 and the cover body 22 are fixedly connected after being formed separately.

In some embodiments, the connector 27 in the present embodiment further needs to satisfy the conveyance of water while satisfying the requirement for connection between the beverage brewing device 2 and the beverage machine body 1, and hence the connector 27 is a structure having the hollow central section. Certainly, the connection between the beverage brewing device 2 and the beverage machine body 1 is not limited to listed conditions in the present embodiment, and any connections which satisfy the objective of beverage brewage should be included in the present application.

For convenience of assembly of the beverage machine 100 and in order to satisfy a force bearing requirement of the beverage brewing device 2 better, optionally, an annular flange 28 is provided at a position of the barrel body 21 adjacent to an opening. In addition, in order to prevent contamination of the machine body due to a connection failure between the beverage brewing device 2 and the beverage machine body 1, a vertical baffle 29 may be provided to an upper surface of the annular flange 28. Further referring to FIG. 3, the vertical baffle 29 is located at a periphery of the cover body 22, thereby intercepting the overflowing liquids.

The beverage brewing device 2 in the present embodiment can separate from the beverage machine body 1, and has a simple structure and is easy to remove.

The present disclosure also provides the beverage machine 100, which includes the above-mentioned beverage brewing device 2 and the beverage machine body 1 connected to the beverage brewing device 2, with reference to FIGS. 4 and 5.

The beverage machine body 1 includes a main body 11, the machine nose 12, a heating container 17 and a water pump 15; the heating container 17 and the water pump 15 are fixedly mounted in the main body 11; the heating container 17 is communicated with the atmosphere, the water pump 15 is located below the heating container 17 and conveys the water in the heating container 17 to the machine nose 12; the machine nose 12 is mounted to an upper portion of the main body 11. In some embodiments, the machine nose 12 is mounted to an outside of the main body 11, and is optionally directly connected to an outer wall of the main body 11. Certainly, the machine nose 12 can also be connected to an inner wall or other positions of the main body 11, as long as functional requirements of the machine nose 12 can be satisfied finally. The machine nose 12 is configured to fix the beverage brewing device 2 and convey the water to the beverage brewing device 2. Specifically, the machine nose 12 is provided with a positioning-mounting structure, and the beverage brewing device 2 of the present embodiment is detachably mounted to the positioning-mounting structure.

In the present embodiment, the water pump 15 is provided below the heating container 17, and the machine nose 12 is mounted to an upper portion of the outer wall of the main body 11, thereby simplifying the structure of the beverage machine 100, and allowing the beverage machine 100 to be easy to carry. In addition, the beverage brewing device 2 is supplied with water through the water pump 15, so the heating container 17 does not need to be sealed, thereby avoiding a safety hazard existing in a heating process for a sealed container.

Further, during the brewage of the beverage, and in the beverage machine 100, the heating container 17 conveys the hot water to the machine nose 12, and the hot water is injected into the capsule of the beverage brewing device 2 from the water inlet 25 in the piercing needle 23 through the machine nose 12, and flows out from the beverage outlet 26 at the bottom end of the barrel body 21 finally.

In addition, the connector 27 provided to the cover body 22 of the beverage brewing device 2 in the present embodiment is connected to the machine nose 12. It is worth mentioning that, the connector 27 connected to the machine nose 12 can also be formed and obtained by extending the piercing needle 23 to the upper surface of the cover body 22, in which case the piercing needle 23 is connected to the machine nose 12, and the water is allowed to enter the water inlet 25 from the connector 27. Certainly, the connection between the beverage brewing device 2 and the machine nose 12 of the beverage machine 100 is not limited to listed conditions in the present embodiment, and any connections which satisfy the objective of beverage brewage should be included in the present application.

Based on the structure of the above-mentioned beverage brewing device 2, the machine nose 12 of the beverage machine 100 in the present embodiment includes a supporting rail 121 and a machine nose shell 122 which are connected to each other. The supporting rail 121 is configured to mount the beverage brewing device 2, such that the beverage brewing device 2 can move along the supporting rail 121 and be fixed. Moreover, a pipeline is provided in the machine nose shell 122, the pipeline is in pipe connection to the water pump 15, and when the beverage brewing device 2 is fixed, the pipeline is communicated with the water inlet 25 of the beverage brewing device 2. Obviously, in order to make the water in the pipeline of the machine nose shell 122 flow into the beverage brewing device 2, the machine nose shell 122 should be disposed above the supporting rail.

For convenience of fixation of a brewing chamber, the barrel body 21 is fixed to the supporting rail 121 through the annular flange 28. In addition, in order to prevent the contamination of the machine body due to a connection failure between the brewing chamber and the beverage machine body 1, the vertical baffle is optionally provided to the upper surface of the annular flange 28. Further referring to FIG. 3, the vertical baffle is located at the periphery of the cover body 22, thereby intercepting the overflowing liquids. A connecting plate connected to the vertical baffle is provided to the machine nose shell 122, thereby preventing the contamination while improving the appearance, with reference to FIG. 4.

In the present embodiment, the heating container 17 is optionally a boiler 13, and the boiler 13 includes a boiler body 131 and a boiler cover 132. Obviously, since the boiler 13 needs to be communicated with the atmosphere, the boiler cover 132 does not serve to seal, but shield the boiler body 131. The boiler 13 is heated by a heating tray 14 disposed on a bottom surface, and temperature of the water in the boiler 13 is measured by a temperature sensor 16. The temperature sensor 16 transmits a measurement signal to a controller, and the controller controls the water pump 15 to operate according to a temperature parameter of the temperature sensor 16. For example, when the water in the boiler 13 is heated to a predetermined temperature, the controller controls the water pump 15 to operate, thereby conveying the hot water to the beverage brewing device 2. Certainly, positions of the heating tray 14 and the temperature sensor 16 are not specifically limited, as long as the heating tray 14 and the temperature sensor 16 can achieve the objectives of heating and temperature measurement respectively. Moreover, in this case, the heating tray 14 can also be replaced by other structures which can achieve the objective of heating.

The heating tray 14 is connected to a temperature controller and a fuse, and the temperature controller and the fuse are optionally disposed at a bottom surface of the heating tray 14, so as to ensure safety protection.

In order to make it convenient to drain the water in the boiler 3, the bottom surface of the boiler 13 is optionally designed as a recessed surface.

During the brewage of the beverage, the water which is heated to the predetermined temperature is conveyed to the beverage brewing device 2. When the water in the boiler 13 is drained, the water pump 15 continues to operate for a period of time. In this case, the water pump 15 conveys air to the beverage brewing device 2 and can just blow-dry the water in the capsule, thereby avoiding the residual liquid from contaminating the environment. Obviously, the position of the water pump 15 is set reasonably, such that the water pump 15 cannot only draw water, but also produce air pressure, thereby serve to brew the beverage and blow-dry the capsule.

Based on a brewing system of the beverage machine 100 composed of the above beverage brewing device 2 and the beverage machine body 1, the main body 11 of the present embodiment includes a waste water box 111, a base 112, a housing 113, a fixing ring 114 and a top cap 115, with reference to FIG. 4.

The waste water box 111 is located below the machine nose 12, so as to make it convenient for collection of waste water. The boiler 13 and the water pump 15 are fixedly mounted in the housing 113, and the machine nose 12 is mounted to the housing 113, thereby allowing an internal layout of the housing 113 to be compact. Likewise, from the point of the compact structure, a circuit board of the beverage machine 100 can be fixed below the boiler 13 in the housing 113. In addition, the top cap 115 is connected to the housing 113 through the fixing ring 114, and the top cap 115 is disposed above the boiler 13, thereby playing a role of dust prevention and shield for the boiler 13. It should be noted that, since the boiler 13 needs to be communicated with the atmosphere, the top cap 115 does not seal the boiler 13. The waste water box 111 and the housing 113 are fixedly mounted to the base 112, and further referring to FIG. 4, the waste water box 111 is fixed to an upper left side of the base 112, while the housing 113 is fixed to an upper right side of the base 112. Materials of the housing 113 can be plastic, metal or other, thereby satisfying diversification of the production.

The beverage brewing device 2 and the beverage machine 100 in the present embodiment can be applied in the brewage of beverages such as coffee, milk tea or tea.
