Problems solved by technology

With the continuous development of the industry, beverage capsules are being introduced into the market with rich types, but traditional capsule beverage machines perform "mechanical" brewing, that is, fixed and uniform brewing parameters, or manually adjust the brewing parameters depending on the user's experience. Adjusting the machine to determine the brewing parameters cannot meet the brewing needs of the increasingly diverse capsule drinks

Embodiment 1

[0044] refer to Figure 1-3 , the capsule identification method of the capsule beverage machine proposed in Embodiment 1 of the present invention, the capsule beverage machine includes a brewing head 100, a brewing cup 200, an identification device 130 located on the brewing head 100, a driving device and a control unit, and the driving device It can drive the brewing cup 200 to reciprocate relative to the brewing head 100. Specifically, the capsule beverage machine of this embodiment is a horizontal model, and the brewing head 100 is also provided with a water inlet needle 110 and an outlet needle 120. 110 and the outlet puncture needle 120 are arranged laterally (horizontally or approximately horizontally) and are located on one side of the brewing head 100 , and the identification device 130 is arranged on the same side as the water inlet puncture needle 110 .

[0045] The control unit includes a main control board 900, and the identification device 130 includes an identifi...

Embodiment 2

[0065] The capsule identification method of the capsule beverage machine in this embodiment is roughly the same as that in Embodiment 1, except that in the capsule identification step, if the control unit determines that the identification is successful, the control unit matches the corresponding brewing mode; Fail, the control unit disables matching brewing mode. Specifically: if the control unit judges that the recognition is successful, it will prompt and control the brewing according to the scheme described in Embodiment 1; if the control unit judges that the recognition has failed, it will not allow the matching brewing mode to avoid calling the The default brewing mode is used for brewing.

[0066] Once the identification fails, the driving device can drive the brewing cup away from the identification device and then re-drive the brewing cup to move towards the identification device. The identification device is close to the capsule and reads the identification code agai...

Embodiment 3

[0068] The capsule identification method of the capsule beverage machine in this embodiment is roughly the same as that in Embodiment 1, except that in the information collection step: the brewing cup is located at a standby position far away from the brewing head, and the identification device is far away from the capsule to read the identification code. Compared with the foregoing embodiments, in this embodiment, when the capsule is put into the capsule beverage machine, the driving device does not operate, and the brewing cup is located at a standby position far away from the brewing head. There is a certain distance between the capsule membrane and the identification device when the puncture needle is drawn out, but the capsule membrane is still within the identification range of the identification device, and the identification is performed when the capsule membrane is not punctured. Once the identification fails, pass The prompt of the prompting device guides the user to ...

Abstract

The invention discloses a capsule recognition method of a capsule beverage machine, and belongs to the technical field of beverage preparation. The method solves the problems of lack of a prompting function and poor usage experiences of users in existing capsule beverage machines, and the beverage machine consists of a brewing head, a brewing cup, a recognition device, a driving device and a control unit, wherein the recognition device, the driving device and the control unit are arranged on the brewing head, and the driving device can drive the brewing cup to move back and forth relative to the brewing head; capsules are provided with recognition codes, the recognition device is used for reading the recognition codes on the capsules, and a prompting device is also arranged on the capsule beverage machine and has at least two prompting states. The capsule recognition method includes the steps of information collection, wherein the recognition device reads the recognition codes on the capsules and feeds back reading data to the control unit; capsule recognition, wherein the control unit conducts judgement according to reading data fed back by the recognition device; prompt recognition, wherein the control unit determines the prompting state of the prompting device according to the judgement result, and conducts prompting according to the determined prompting state.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of beverage preparation, in particular to a capsule identification method for a capsule beverage machine. Background technique [0002] With the improvement of people's living standards and the adjustment of eating habits, the number of people who drink tea, soy milk and coffee is increasing, and the beverage machine is becoming more and more popular. The user only needs to put the capsules of tea powder, coffee or bean powder into the brewing beverage machine, and the beverage machine will automatically complete the brewing process, making the operation of preparing beverages easier, and the capsules are individually sealed and packaged to ensure that each cup of beverage is safe is fresh. With the continuous development of the industry, beverage capsules are being introduced into the market with rich types, but traditional capsule beverage machines perform "mechanical" brewing, that is, fixed and uniform ...
