AUTOMATIC COFFEE MACHINE WITH DETACHABLE BEAN-GRINDING APPARATUS

摘要

Disclosed is an automatic coffee machine with a detachable bean-grinding apparatus. A detaching/installing and adjusting mechanism for the bean-grinding apparatus comprises a connecting part connected in an easily detachable fashion with a bean case component (13), and an adjusting part able to adjust an upper grinding wheel component (14) in performing reciprocal movements so as to adjust the grinding distance of the upper grinding wheel component (14) and a lower grinding wheel component (12). Cleaning and maintenance of the grinding components by a user is facilitated while the fineness of ground powder granules can be adjusted as needed. A powder outlet channel (10) of a bean-grinding chamber (9) is an inclined pipe structure, and the top part of an opening in the initial portion of the powder outlet channel (10) intersects with a side wall (32) and a bottom face (34) of the bean-grinding chamber (9). The distance between the outermost end of a coffee grounds remover tray (11) and the rotational centreline of the coffee grounds remover tray (11) is greater than the minimum distance between the opening in the initial portion of the powder outlet channel (10) and the rotational centreline of the coffee grounds remover tray (11). By means of the inclined powder outlet channel (10) coffee powder can freely slide into a brewing apparatus, and the coffee grounds remover tray (11) plays the role of preventing the risk of and eliminating powder blocking the bean-grinding chamber (9) and the power outlet channel (10).
