Temperature regulating device for beverage

The present invention relates to a temperature regulating device for a beverage.

In the fast-paced urban life, hot beverages and cold beverages generally need to be adjusted in advance to reach the acceptable range of the human body. For example, coffee needs to stand for a certain period of time after brewing, and can only be drunk when the temperature drops to a suitable temperature. However, in the process of life and work, there is an actual need to quickly cool the coffee. There is a beverage cooler in the market, which realizes the heat exchange between the hot beverage and the cooling medium by means of heat exchange. The main problems of the beverage cooler are as follows: the lid includes an elliptical lip, which surrounds the concave inclined surface, and the hot beverage flows into the beverage cooler along the inclined surface. During the pouring process, it is necessary to be slow and careful, otherwise the hot beverage will splash easily.

In view of the shortcomings in the above problems, the present invention provides a temperature regulating device for a beverage.

In order to achieve the above purpose, the present invention provides a temperature regulating device for a beverage, which comprises an upper cover, a first barrel and a second barrel connected below the upper cover, wherein the upper cover is provided with an inlet and an outlet for a beverage to flow in and out; the second barrel is located in the first barrel; a cavity for receiving the beverage is formed between the first barrel and the second barrel; the inlet and the outlet are both communicated with the cavity; a first chamber for storing media is formed in the second barrel; the upper cover is recessed inward in the middle to form an inner concave part; the inner concave part is funnel-shaped, the bottom of the funnel bulges upward to form a conical convex part, and there are a plurality of inlets machined on the wall surface of the inner concave part, and the second barrel is connected below the convex part.

The upper cover is recessed inward in the middle part to form an inner concave part, and the beverage can be directly inverted at the position of the inner concave part, and enter the interior of the cavity from the inlet, the design of the inclined surface is cancelled, so that the pouring of the beverage becomes convenient, and basically no splashing phenomenon occurs; the design of the convex part increases the area of the fluid, plays a certain drainage role, and further avoids the possibility of splashing.

As a further improvement of the solution, the first barrel has an outer edge on which an outer barrel is connected, and a second chamber for storing media is formed between the outer barrel and the first barrel.

In the technical solution, the second chamber is formed outside the first barrel, and the beverage in the chamber can simultaneously exchange heat with the media in the first chamber and the second chamber, so that the temperature can be adjusted rapidly.

As a further improvement of the solution, the first barrel, the second barrel and the upper cover are connected by threads and a sealing ring is arranged at the connecting part, and the outer barrel and the outer edge are connected by threads and a sealing ring is arranged at the connecting part.

In the technical solution, the threaded connection is convenient for disassembly, cleaning and medium replacement, and the sealing ring plays a sealing role.

As a further improvement of the solution, the center of the convex part is provided with a first pinhole for internal and external air pressure balance, and the upper cover is provided with a second pinhole for internal and external air pressure balance, and the second pinhole penetrates the outer edge to be communicated with the second chamber.

In the above technical solution, the first pinhole is communicated with the first chamber, and the second pinhole is communicated with the second chamber. In the process of thermal expansion and cold contraction of the media in the first chamber and the second chamber, the internal and external air pressure balance is achieved through the action of the first pinhole and the second pinhole, and local deformation caused by pressure difference is avoided.

As a further improvement of the solution, a plug cover for plugging is arranged above the inner concave part.

In the technical solution, the plug cover plays a role in preventing dust and impurities from entering the cavity, thus ensuring the hygiene of the beverage.

As a further improvement of the solution, the first barrel and the second barrel are made of heat-conducting materials, and the outer barrel is made of heat-insulating materials.

In the above technical solution, the first barrel and the second barrel are made of heat-conducting material, which is convenient for rapid heat exchange, and the outer barrel is made of heat-insulating material, which avoids burning hands.

Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects: the upper cover is recessed inward in the middle part to form an inner concave part, and the beverage can be directly inverted at the position of the inner concave part, and can enter the interior of the cavity from the inlet, the design of the inclined surface is cancelled, so that the pouring of the beverage becomes convenient, and the splash phenomenon basically does not occur; the design of the convex part increases the area of the fluid, plays a certain drainage role, and further avoids the possibility of splashing; the temperature adjusting device has a compact structure, a novel design and a high temperature adjusting efficiency.
