Example 14:

on the basis of any one of embodiments 9 to 13, further, a metering device 210 is connected between the power member 200 and the switching device 150.

In this embodiment, the metering device 210 is disposed between the motive member 200 and the switching device 150 to meter the liquid delivered by the motive member 200 to the brewing device 110 via the reservoir 190.

As shown in fig. 1, the metering device 210 is located between the motive member 200 and the reservoir member 190.

In this embodiment, the metering device 210 is disposed between the motive member 200 and the reservoir 190 to meter the delivery of liquid from the motive member 200 to the brewing device 110 via the reservoir 190.

Example 15:

as shown in fig. 1, the present invention provides a beverage machine 100, which includes: a water tank, a connector 162, a flow meter, a water pump, a three-way solenoid valve, a boiler, a two-way solenoid valve, a refrigeration device 170, and a brewing device 110.

Wherein, the water tank is used for storing water for normal temperature or cold drink for brewing coffee or beverage.

The connector 162 is used to connect to a water tank, and drinking water in the water tank is introduced into the third flow path 160 through the connector 162.

The flow meter is used to measure the amount of water entering the third flow passage 160 and send a metering signal to the electronic control system for use in flow control. The flow meter is an optional component, and the flow meter can be cancelled by timing instead of controlling the flow.

The water pump is used to pump water from the tank to the third flow path and ultimately to the brewing device 110.

The three-way solenoid valve controls the direction of the water path, and allows the third flow channel 160 to be in communication with the first flow channel 120 when not energized, and allows the third flow channel 160 to be in communication with the second flow channel 130 when energized.

The boiler is used to heat the water passing through the second flow passage 130 into hot water for beverage making.

The two-way electromagnetic valve is arranged on the second flow passage 130 and is an optional part, and the circuit controls the water path to be opened and closed, and is switched on when electrified and is switched off when not electrified. The water path is closed immediately after the beverage is made, and the device can be used for improving the effect that residual water drops exist in the water outlet after the beverage is brewed.

The refrigerating device 170 is used to cool the water passing through the first flow passage 120 into cold water, which is an optional component and is brewed with normal temperature water when not selected.

The brewing device 110 is used for making a beverage, and can be filled with coffee powder or coffee capsules and other raw materials, and drinking water is mixed and extracted with the raw materials in a brewing system to obtain coffee or the beverage.

Specifically, when making a cold drink: the water pump provides power to pump water from the water tank to the third flow passage 160, through the junction 162, the flow meter, the water pump, and to the third working port 156 of the three-way solenoid valve. When the circuit control does not supply power to the three-way solenoid valve, the water flows out from the first working port 152 of the three-way solenoid valve and enters the brewing device 110 through the refrigerating device 170. The drinking water is still cold water after being heated at normal temperature in the brewing system in the whole process, and the prepared coffee or beverage is cold drink, so that the cold drink function is realized.

In the preparation of hot beverages: the water pump provides power to pump water from the tank to the third flow passage 160, through the tank connection 162, the flow meter, the water pump, and to the second port 154 of the three-way solenoid valve. The circuit controls the power to the three-way solenoid valve, and when the two-way valve is selected, the power is supplied to the two-way valve, so that the water flows out through the second working port 154 of the three-way solenoid valve, is heated by the boiler, and then enters the brewing device 110 through the two-way solenoid valve. Since the drinking water is heated, the hot water enters the brewing device 110, and the coffee or beverage is hot, thereby realizing the function of hot beverage.
