Flip lid coffee machine

A flip lid coffee machine adapted for extracting coffee from a coffee capsule, comprising:

• a base body;
• a holding container mounted to an upper surface of the base body;
• a cover movably and pivotally connected to the upper surface of the base body, the cover having a pivot end that is pivotally connected to the base body, a free end opposite to the pivot end, and a cutting membrane structure arranged between the pivot end and the free end, when the cover is covered on the upper surface of the base body, the cutting membrane structure being aligned with the holding container, the cutting membrane structure including a blade holder, a plurality of the water outlets and a plurality of blades, the plurality of the water outlets being arranged around a periphery of the blade holder, the plurality of the blades being arranged around the periphery of the blade holder and corresponding to the plurality of the water outlets, each blade being disposed corresponding to a water flowing direction of one water outlet for guiding a water stream, the cover being movable with respect to the holding container, and an oblique angle being formed between the cover and a top surface of the holding container;
• an actuator connected between the base body and the pivot end of the cover;
• an image sensing camera arranged at and exposed to the free end of the cover, the holding container having a connecting hole penetrating through the top surface of the holding container for receiving the coffee capsule, when the cover is moved to a range of the oblique angle, the image sensing camera being towards the connecting hole of the holding container;
• and
• a control device connected with and communicating with the actuator and the image sensing camera, the control device including an image processing unit for receiving image data and proceeding with an image recognition, and a microprocessor for processing confirmation data and controlling the actuator,
• wherein the cover rotates within the range of the oblique angle to make the image sensing camera be towards the holding container and capture a two-dimension bar code on a top membrane of the coffee capsule.
