Abstract
Disclosed is a coffee bean temperature detection device, including an accommodation tube, with two opposite openings, and the opening facing the bean in use is a first opening, and the other opening facing away from the bean is a second opening; a fixing element is fixedly arranged in the accommodation tube but does not contact the accommodation tube; a non-contact thermometer is located in the accommodation tube and fixedly arranged on a surface of the fixing element facing the first opening, with the non-contact thermometer facing the first opening and not in contact with the accommodation tube; and a blowing device is fixedly arranged at end of the second opening, and the blowing device blows in a direction towards the non-contact thermometer.
Claims15
A coffee bean temperature detection device, comprising:
- a fixing structure, tightly engaged to a bean roasting container, and disposed with a fixed slot, a first fixing base, and a first hole, the first hole having one side facing inside of the bean roasting container and the other side facing outside of the bean roasting container, the first hole comprising a protruding portion on a circumference;
- a sealing ring, having an outer diameter matched with an inner diameter of the first hole, and comprising a recessed portion on an outer circumference, the recessed portion matched with the protruding portion of the first hole, and the sealing ring being sleeved tightly in the first hole of the fixing structure, with the recessed engaged with the protruding portion of the first hole, the sealing ring being disposed with a second hole;
- an accommodation tube, with two opposite openings, and the opening facing coffee beans in roasting is a first opening, and the other opening facing away from the coffee beans being a second opening;
- disposed with a fixing buckle and a second fixing base pointing to the first opening, with engagement between the fixing buckle and the fixing slot, and with at least a fastening member to combine the first fixing base and the second fixing base, the first opening being tightly pressed against the second hole;
- a fixing element, fixedly arranged in the accommodation tube but not in contact with the accommodation tube;
- a non-contact thermometer, located in the accommodation tube and fixedly arranged on a surface of the fixing element facing the first opening, with the non-contact thermometer facing the first opening and not in contact with the accommodation tube;
- and
- a blowing device, fixedly arranged at end of the second opening, and the blowing device blowing in a direction towards the non-contact thermometer.
A temperature measuring method of coffee beans, comprising the steps of:
- providing a non-contact thermometer in an accommodation tube, so that the non-contact thermometer facing a first opening of the accommodation tube but not in contact with the accommodation tube;
- providing a blowing device blowing in a direction of the first opening at a second opening at the opposite end of the accommodation tube;
- and
- activating the blowing device and the non-contact thermometer to make the blowing device generate airflow around the non-contact thermometer and blown out of the first opening so that the airflow keeping the interference source away from the non-contact thermometer, and then the temperature of the coffee bean being measured by the non-contact thermometer.
