Hot drink maker

A hot drink maker, essentially comprising a heating device for making various hot drinks, the heating device comprising a main body assembled therein with an internal water tank, a steeping chamber being installed at an upper end of the internal water tank, a pitcher being placed at a side of the main body adjacent to where the steeping chamber is installed, the hot drink maker being characterized in:

• a pump being assembled under the internal water tank for storing and boiling tap water of the heating device and being configured for pumping water which has reached a preset temperature from the internal water tank through a tube into the steeping chamber installed above the internal water tank;
• the steeping chamber being partitioned internally so as to form a receiving space for receiving a bag containing a raw material of a hot drink, the space being surrounded by a peripheral wall having a plurality of mesh openings, the steeping chamber having an end formed with an outlet fitted therein with a plug rod constantly and resiliently pushing downward, a seesaw element being pivotally provided adjacent to an end of the main body of the heating device, the seesaw element having an end restrained by a resilient element disposed between a projection extended from the internal water tank and the end of the seesaw element such that an opposite end of the seesaw element is constantly and resiliently pushed upward against the plug rod located thereabove so as to keep the steeping chamber closed;
• and
• a cam to be driven and controlled by at least two sensors being assembled under the main body of the heating device, a pushing rod being fitted in a hollow frame above the cam and having an end corresponding in position to the seesaw element, another resilient element being disposed between an upper end of the pushing rod and a corresponding end of the main body so that the pushing rod is constantly and resiliently pushed downward;
• wherein when a set steeping time is up, the cam is driven to rotate, thereby pushing the pushing rod upward and thus tilting the seesaw element resiliently engaged with the plug rod at the end of the outlet of the steeping chamber so that a finished hot drink prepared by steeping is discharged into the adjacent pitcher along the lowered plug rod, and thus the hot drink is made conveniently.
