Detailed description of the invention
For making the purpose of this utility model, technical scheme and advantage clearly understand, below in conjunction with specific embodiment, and with reference to accompanying drawing, the utility model is described in further detail.
About aforementioned and other technology contents, feature and effect of the present utility model, in the detailed description of following cooperation with reference to graphic embodiment, can clearly present.The direction term mentioned in following examples such as: upper and lower, left and right, front or rear etc., is only the direction with reference to accompanying drawing.Therefore, the direction term of use is used to illustrate and is not used for limiting the utility model.
Fig. 1 is the schematic diagram of the beverage preparation device of an embodiment of the present utility model.As shown in Figure 1, beverage preparation device 10 comprises bracket 12, optical pickup device 14, at least one capsule 16 and penetrating device 18.Bracket 12 can support capsule 16, the accommodating thing 22 to be brewed of capsule 16 also has a demolished sealer 16a, capsule 16 can have sidewall 16b and connects the bottom 16c of sidewall 16b and can have a box shape, the sidewall 16b of capsule 16 defines one together with bottom 16c and goes out accommodation space, thing 22 to be brewed can be placed in accommodation space, sealer 16a is covered in capping thing 22 to be brewed on accommodation space, and sealer 16a is formed with the information code 24 that can supply to optically read.The bottom 16c of capsule 16 is formed with fluid outlet 25, and the beverage brewed can be flowed out by fluid issuing 25 to be drunk for consumer.
In the present embodiment, by manual or mechanism driving, bracket 12 can be moved to one together with the capsule 16 on it and optically read position and an infusion position, optical reading position and infusion position can be essentially same position or diverse location.When capsule 16 moves to optical reading position, optical pickup device 14 can information code 24 on the scanning direction sealer 16a of such as vertical sealer 16a read corresponding information, this information for example can comprise kind and the brewing conditions of thing 22 to be brewed, and also can comprise the composition or taste etc. of thing to be brewed, wherein brewing conditions such as can comprise the soaking temperature, brewing pressure, amount of water, additive etc. for thing 22 to be brewed.After optical pickup device 14 reads corresponding information, penetrating device 18 can be utilized to move down the puncture thing 18a of penetrating device 18 (profit is as blade or entry needle) scratched on sealer 16a to be formed and can allow suitably the cracking of liquid inflow capsule 16.When liquid enters after capsule 16 brews, beverage can be flowed out by the fluid issuing 25 of capsule bottom 16c to be drunk for consumer.For example, when consumer is for allowing beverage preparation device 10 make one cup of latte, user only needs capsule 16 to drop in beverage preparation device 10, the digital information automatic discrimination that namely optical pickup device 14 can read information code 24 correspondence go out capsule 16 kind (latte) and to should the imposing a condition of capsule kind, allow beverage preparation device 10 obtain and brew the required optimum condition set of latte, the such as the suitableeest water yield, water temperature, interpolation fresh milk amount etc., then poke capsule 16 according to brewing conditions and add boiling water and fresh milk can brew.Certainly, beverage preparation device 10 also additionally can be provided with button and adjust predetermined brewing conditions for consumer.Moreover the material of sealer 16a does not limit, such as, can be the engineering plastics of aluminium foil or such as PEI (polyetherimide).
Should be noted that above-mentioned capsule 16 is only illustration, other can capping one thing to be brewed can being formed crack be encapsulated element, all can be applicable to different embodiment of the present utility model and its shape, kind and size do not limit completely, only need to be attained at the effect brewing front capping thing to be brewed.In another embodiment, as shown in Figure 2, be encapsulated element and such as can be a pouch 26, pouch 26 has sidewall 26b and connects the bottom 26c of sidewall 26b, and sidewall 26b defines one together with bottom 26c and goes out accommodation space,
Can be able to be formed on the surface of pouch sidewall 26b for the information code 24 optically read, and the sack of pouch 26 is formed with the protuberance 26a of capping, protuberance 26a can form injection for liquid and enter suitably cracking in pouch 26, and bottom pouch, 26c can form a fluid issuing 25 protruded.The material of pouch 26 does not limit, such as, can be aluminium foil.Moreover, in another embodiment, as shown in Figure 3, being encapsulated element and can utilizing bracket 12 or not need bracket 12 directly to be dropped into the locating slot 27 of beverage preparation device 20 by top of such as capsule 16 or pouch 26, and slipping in the process of locating slot 27 being encapsulated element, optical pickup device 14 can carry out along the direction vertical with being encapsulated element moving direction scanning the information with rapid interpretation information code 24.
By the design of above-described embodiment, when after selected beverage types, consumer need not carry out extra information input for brewing conditions or carry out the key press action of multiple complexity, the beverage taste wanted can be brewed out, not only easy to use and such as key press mistake can be avoided to cause brewing out the situation of the beverage taste wanted.On the other hand, the information content of information code does not limit completely, such as, also can comprise the production information such as product identification, capsule lot number.For example, when non-belong to authorize be encapsulated after element inserts beverage preparation device manufactured by manufacturer, namely can not carry out brewing action after optical pickup device reads information code.Therefore, visual actual demand adjustment information code correspondence the information content and be applied to beverage preparation device production, drink preparation, identify, workflow management etc. every aspect.Moreover, by reading the action of information code in a large number, can collect, add up or analyze the preference information of consumer, quantity in stock, field sales amount or other business informations being beneficial to sale or better service is provided easily.
In one embodiment, the mode of printing such as can be utilized information code 24 to be formed to be encapsulated on the surface of element.The structure of information code 24 does not limit, and comprises bar code, quick response matrix code (Quickresponsecode, QRcode), point coding etc., but with the some horizontal and vertical parity check code of the visual experience that can avoid interference user for better.In one embodiment, as shown in Figure 4, information code 24 can be made up of multiple image cursor 30, and each forms one 4 × 4 planar state region arrays by 16 round dots 32.When optical pickup device 14 reads after the surface being encapsulated element obtains a magnified image, for example, first can pick out a complete image cursor 30, just can carry out decoding to image cursor 30 and draw an index number, index number can draw the optimal conditions making beverage according to this.Moreover, be encapsulated the filling position of element in beverage preparation device 10 and do not limit completely, and the content being encapsulated element does not limit completely, such as, can brew and produce tea, coffee or bubble drink etc.Be encapsulated element only to need to be attained at the effect brewing front capping thing to be brewed, its shape, kind and size do not limit completely, and the mode that above-mentioned utilization is exposed is formed to crack and is only illustration, other can in be encapsulated mode that element forms fluid intake all can and do not limit.
Above-described specific embodiment; the purpose of this utility model, technical scheme and beneficial effect are further described; be understood that; the foregoing is only specific embodiment of the utility model; be not limited to the utility model; all within spirit of the present utility model and principle, any amendment made, equivalent replacement, improvement etc., all should be included within protection domain of the present utility model.
