Embodiment 1

[0035] figure 1 It is a structural block diagram of a coffee brewing automatic realization system according to an embodiment of the present invention, see figure 1 , the coffee brewing automatic realization system 10 includes: a console 101, a mechanical arm 102, and a coffee brewing appliance 103, and the coffee brewing appliance 103 at least includes: a coffee pourer 1031, a filter 1032, a coffee cup 1033, and an electronic scale 1034;

[0036] The console 101, after receiving the coffee brewing start command, generates corresponding control commands for controlling the movement of the mechanical arm 102 according to the acquired brewing action trajectory of the robotic arm; The coffee pourover pot 1031, under the control of the control command, moves according to the trajectory of the brewing action of the robotic arm, pours the water in the coffee pourover pot 1031 into the coffee cup 1033 with a filter 1032 on the mouth of the cup, and performs the simulation action of p...

Embodiment 2

[0045] In this embodiment, the focus is on the creation and generation of the motion track of the robotic arm for the automatic realization of coffee brewing system. For other details, please refer to other embodiments of the present invention.

[0046] Specifically, the system for automatically realizing coffee brewing in this embodiment also includes: a camera, which can perform data communication with the console; One camera is set in front of the barista, and another camera is set above the barista. In this way, the action of the barista holding the coffee pot to brew coffee can be captured by the two cameras to obtain corresponding images.

[0047] In this embodiment, the camera collects in real time the image information of the preset tracking points on the coffee pot at each moment when the barista manually brews coffee; The weight information of the coffee liquid at any time; the console calculates the position coordinates and posture of the coffee pot based on the im...

Embodiment 3

[0056] figure 2 It is a flowchart of an automatic coffee brewing method according to an embodiment of the present invention, see figure 2 , the automatic coffee brewing method of this embodiment includes the following steps S21 and S22:

[0057] Step S21, receiving the brewing start instruction, and generating corresponding control instructions for controlling the movement of the robotic arm according to the obtained brewing movement trajectory of the robotic arm, and controlling the robotic arm to hold the coffee pot after the coffee brewing is started and follow the The trajectory of the robotic arm’s brewing action moves, injecting the water in the coffee pot into the coffee cup with a filter on the mouth of the cup, and performing the simulated action of pouring coffee, in which coffee powder is placed on the filter;

[0058] Step S22: Receive the weight information of the coffee liquid collected and sent by the electronic scale in real time, generate a feedback control...

Abstract

The invention discloses an automatic coffee making system and method. The system comprises a console, a mechanical arm and a coffee making tool, wherein the console generates a control instruction according to the acquired mechanical arm making action track after receiving a coffee making start instruction; the mechanical arm clamps a manual coffee making kettle to move according to the mechanical arm making action track and executes the manual coffee making simulation action after coffee making is started; an electronic scale acquires the weight of a coffee liquid in a coffee cup in real time during making and sends the weight to the console; the console also generates a feedback control instruction to adjust the action of the mechanical arm according to the mechanical arm making action track and the weight of the coffee liquid, so that movement of the mechanical arm meets the mechanical arm making action track. The mechanical arm is used and controlled to finish the manual coffee making simulation action automatically according to the pre-acquired mechanical arm making action track, and the problem of unstable coffee taste caused by human factors when baristas and the like make coffee manually is solved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of coffee making, in particular to a system and method for automatically realizing coffee brewing. Background technique [0002] Coffee is a staple drink popular all over the world. At present, there are mainly two ways to make coffee. One is to make coffee through a coffee machine. The easiest way, the disadvantage is that the coffee taste is poor. [0003] With people's pursuit of coffee taste and quality, hand-dripped coffee has gradually become popular among the public. Since hand-brewed coffee is separated from the dependence on the coffee machine, it is easier to adjust parameters such as water temperature, steaming time, water flow speed, and brewing angle according to the type of coffee beans and the degree of grinding. . Although the equipment of pour-over coffee is simple, it looks easy and highly similar to the operation. In fact, it also contains the possibility of various tastes. Different b...
