Muddler carrying-out device for beverage poured into cup
View Patent ↗A muddler carrying-out device includes a muddler storing part for storing a plurality of stacked muddlers, and a muddler carrying-out part for carrying out the lowest muddler of the plurality of muddlers stored in the muddler storing part to a muddler takeout port. Further, the muddler carrying-out part operates below the second lowest muddler, and a distance of carrying out the muddler in the muddler carrying-out part is set at a distance of protruding a part of the lowest muddler from the muddler takeout port. When the lowest muddler is left without being pulled out at the time of carrying out the muddler, the lowest muddler moves over a distance of carrying out the muddler and the second lowest muddler is supported by the lowest muddler. With this arrangement, even when the muddler carrying-out part is driven thereafter, the carrying-out force of the muddler carrying-out part is not applied to the lowest muddler and the carrying-out force of the muddler carrying-out part is not applied to the second lowest muddler.
1. A muddler carrying-out device, comprising:
a muddler storing part for storing a plurality of stacked muddlers, and
a muddler carrying-out part for carrying out the lowest muddler of the plurality of muddlers stored in the muddler storing part to a muddler takeout port,
wherein a distance of carrying out the muddler in the muddler carrying-out part is set at a distance of protruding a part of the lowest muddler from the muddler takeout port.
2. The muddler carrying-out device according to claim 1 , wherein the muddler carrying-out part comprises:
a muddler guiding part for guiding the lowest muddler stored in the muddler storing part to the muddler takeout port,
a muddler carrying-out element which can move between a muddler standby position and a muddler carrying-out position of the muddler guiding part and can push a rear end of the lowest muddler in a direction of carrying out the muddler, and
a rocking link which is connected to the muddler carrying-out element and a rotary driving motor, converts rotating movement of the rotary driving motor substantially to rectilinear motion, and causes the muddler carrying-out element to reciprocate between the muddler standby position and the muddler carrying-out position.
3. The muddler carrying-out device according to claim 2 , wherein the muddler carrying-out element is pivotally supported by the rocking link, and an elastic force is applied to the muddler carrying-out element by a spring means in the direction of carrying out the muddler.
4. The muddler carrying-out device according to claim 2 , wherein the rotary driving motor is also a rotary driving source for driving a cup holder mechanism of a vending machine.
5. The muddler carrying-out device according to claim 3 , wherein the rotary driving motor is shared with a rotary driving source for driving a cup holder mechanism of a vending machine.
6. The muddler carrying-out device according to claim 1 , further comprising a shutter mechanism for restraining entry of a member inserted from an outside to an inside of the muddler takeout port.
7. The muddler carrying-out device according to claim 2 , further comprising a shutter mechanism for restraining entry of a member inserted from an outside to an inside of the muddler takeout port.
8. The muddler carrying-out device according to claim 3 , further comprising a shutter mechanism for restraining entry of a member inserted from an outside to an inside of the muddler takeout port.
9. The muddler carrying-out device according to claim 4 , further comprising a shutter mechanism for restraining entry of a member inserted from an outside to an inside of the muddler takeout port.
10. The muddler carrying-out device according to claim 5 , further comprising a shutter mechanism for restraining entry of a member inserted from an outside to an inside of the muddler takeout port.
