Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of food processing devices, and in particular relates to a food processing machine which is convenient to use. Background Art

[0002] Existing self-cleaning food processors usually include a main machine, a crushing cup installed on the main machine, and a drain valve. The drain valve includes a valve body and a slurry nozzle, which is used to control the discharge of liquid in the crushing cup. Existing self-cleaning food processor structures are generally divided into two types: one is that the cup body is detachable relative to the main machine. In this structure, the slurry nozzle of the drain valve is fixed on the cup body or the main machine, and cannot be disassembled for cleaning, resulting in the problem of cleaning dead corners; the other is that the cup body is fixed on the main machine, and the slurry nozzle of the drain valve can be disassembled from the main machine, but the drain valve is difficult to align during installation and inconvenient to operate. Moreover, since the cup body is fixed, when preparing some thick slurries, there is a problem of slow drainage speed, and it is impossible to replace multiple cups, and the function is single.

[0003] The applicant has thought of developing a food processing machine in which both the cup body and the slurry nozzle are detachable from the main machine, which simplifies the installation of the slurry nozzle while realizing the disassembly and cleaning of the discharge valve, and realizes the replacement of the cup body, expands the function of the food processing machine, and improves the user experience. Specifically, the user first installs the slurry nozzle directly from top to bottom on the support platform of the main machine. In order to realize that the installation position of the slurry nozzle is not unique, a limiting rib or a limiting groove is set above the support platform, so that the slurry nozzle forms a slurry nozzle placement area in the rotating fan-shaped area between the slurry discharge position and the waste discharge position. The user places the slurry nozzle at will in the slurry nozzle placement area and then installs the cup body on the support platform. After the cup body is installed, the valve body and the slurry nozzle cooperate to realize transmission.

[0004] However, during further research, the applicant discovered that the paddle nozzle needs to be placed at the limit position through the limiting ribs above the support platform. However, generally after the food processor finishes working, the paddle nozzle stays at the limit position, that is, the position that cooperates with the limiting ribs. This causes the user's fingers to be interfered with by the limiting ribs when they want to remove the paddle nozzle, making it inconvenient to remove the paddle nozzle. Moreover, since the limiting ribs are provided above the support platform, the user visually feels that the position for installing the paddle nozzle is too limited, resulting in a poor user experience. Utility Model Content

[0005] The utility model provides an easy-to-use food processing machine. By arranging the cup body and the paddle nozzle to be detachable relative to the main machine, the utility model further solves the technical problems in the prior art that the paddle nozzle has a single installation position and is inconvenient for users to assemble and disassemble the paddle nozzle, while achieving functional diversification and deep cleaning of the drain valve.

[0006] The technical solution adopted by the utility model is:

[0007] The utility model provides an easy-to-use food processing machine, comprising a main machine with a supporting platform, a cup body, and a drain valve, wherein the drain valve comprises a valve body with a valve core disposed therein and a slurry nozzle communicated and coordinated with the valve core, the valve body is mounted on the cup body, and the cup body is detachably mounted above the supporting platform, the supporting platform is provided with a mounting port, the supporting platform forms a slurry nozzle placement area surrounding the mounting port, the slurry nozzle is detachably placed on the slurry nozzle placement area and can rotate with the valve core, a slurry discharge pipe of the slurry nozzle passes downward from the mounting port, and the food processing machine further comprises a first limiting portion and a second limiting portion for limiting the slurry discharge pipe to limit the rotation angle of the slurry nozzle, the first limiting portion and the second limiting portion are both convexly arranged on the lower side of the supporting platform.

[0008] The utility model provides a convenient food processing machine, which is convenient to use. The cup body is detachably mounted on the support platform, and the support platform is also provided with a slurry nozzle placement area around the installation port, and the slurry nozzle is detachably placed on the slurry nozzle placement area, so that the cup body and the slurry nozzle can be disassembled, and the functions are diversified and the drain valve is deeply cleaned, which is convenient to use. The slurry nozzle rotates with the valve core, and the first limit part and the second limit part limit the rotation angle of the slurry nozzle, so that the slurry nozzle is limited by the first limit part and the second limit part when it rotates to two limit positions with the valve core, so that the slurry nozzle works reliably. Since the first limit part and the second limit part are both convexly arranged on the lower side of the support platform, compared with the method of setting the limit part on the upper surface of the support platform, the slurry nozzle placement area can be made wider, and the user has a good visual effect in the process of installing the slurry nozzle. When the slurry nozzle needs to be removed, the upper surface of the support platform has a reasonable space to avoid the user's fingers, so that the user can easily take the slurry nozzle, and the slurry nozzle can be smoothly disassembled and assembled. Since the cup body can be disassembled, the paddle nozzle can be installed before the cup body, so the installation position of the paddle nozzle is not unique, and the user can install it at will, so the paddle nozzle can be installed quickly. In addition, the provision of the first limit portion and the second limit portion can play a guiding role in the process of the user passing the paddle nozzle downward through the installation opening, preventing the user from installing the paddle nozzle upside down, facilitating the subsequent positioning of the paddle nozzle and the valve core and the subsequent restoration of the initial position of the paddle nozzle, and the structure is reliable.

[0009] In a preferred embodiment, the first limiting portion includes a first arc wall extending along the circumference of the installation opening and a first straight wall connected to the first arc wall, and the first straight wall cooperates with the slurry discharge pipe stopper.

[0010] The first limiting portion includes a first arc wall extending along the circumference of the installation opening, that is, the first arc wall extends downward near the installation opening, so that when the user installs the pulp nozzle, the first arc wall has a certain guiding effect on the installation of the pulp nozzle. For example, some pulp nozzles have a transversely bent extension. Due to the setting of the first arc wall, the pulp nozzle is installed from top to bottom under the guidance of the first arc wall. At the same time, only the extension of the pulp nozzle is allowed to be installed on the opposite side of the first arc wall, so that after the user installs the pulp nozzle, the pulp nozzle can be close to the preset position, which is conducive to the effective cooperation between the valve core and the pulp nozzle, and realizes the subsequent rapid positioning between the valve core and the pulp nozzle. The first straight wall cooperates with the pulp discharge pipe stopper to limit the pulp discharge pipe after the pulp discharge pipe reaches the first limit position. Since the first straight wall is connected to the first arc wall, a gap is avoided, and the pulp discharge pipe is prevented from being stuck in the gap during installation, so that the pulp nozzle can be correctly installed.

[0011] In a preferred embodiment, the second limiting portion includes a second arc wall extending along the circumference of the installation opening and a second straight wall connected to the second arc wall, the second straight wall cooperates with the slurry discharge pipe stopper, and the second arc wall extends to connect with the first arc wall.

[0012] By arranging a second arc wall on the second extension part, the second arc wall and the first arc wall are connected to jointly guide the installation of the pulp nozzle, so that the installation of the pulp nozzle has more directional limitations, which can facilitate the correct and quick installation of the pulp nozzle, and the second straight wall is used to cooperate with the pulp discharge pipe stopper to limit the pulp discharge pipe after the pulp discharge pipe reaches the second extreme position, so that the limitation is reliable.

[0013] In a preferred embodiment, the support platform includes a support seat that is arched upward to define a accommodating cavity on the lower side, and the top wall of the support seat includes a first support wall, a transition wall, and a second support wall that is connected to each other and is sunken relative to the first support wall. The mounting port is opened on the first support wall, and the outer side surface of the transition wall forms the second limiting portion or the first limiting portion.

[0014] More preferably, the first support wall, the transition wall and the second support wall define a mounting groove, the support platform further comprises a motor assembly fixed in the mounting groove, and the cup body is supported on the upper end surface of the motor assembly.

[0015] The support platform includes a support seat, and the support seat is arched upward to define a receiving cavity on the lower side, which can be used to install a slurry cup or a residual water box. The space of the whole machine is reasonably utilized. Moreover, the second support wall of the support seat is sunken relative to the first support wall to support different components, so that the motor assembly can be installed just by using the installation groove above the support seat. The cup body is supported on the upper end surface of the motor assembly, which is conducive to reducing the height of the whole machine. The transition wall naturally formed by the support seat is used to form the second limiting part or the first limiting part. There is no need to set up other structures to limit the extreme position of the slurry nozzle. The support seat integrates multiple functions, the whole machine structure is simple, and the space utilization is reasonable. Moreover, the transition wall has a large enough area to limit the slurry nozzle, and the limiting is reliable.

[0016] In a preferred embodiment, the slurry discharge pipe includes a vertical section passing through the installation opening and an extension section laterally bent from the vertical section, and the first limiting portion and the second limiting portion both extend downward to overlap with the extension section in height, so that the first limiting portion and the second limiting portion respectively cooperate with the extension section stopper.

[0017] The slurry discharge pipe includes a vertical section passing through the installation opening and an extension section laterally bent from the vertical section, and the vertical section and the installation opening are used for radial limiting, so that the slurry discharge pipe can be flexibly rotated in the installation opening, and the first limiting portion and the second limiting portion are both extended downward to overlap with the extension section in height, so that the extension section directly cooperates with the first limiting portion and the second limiting portion to achieve rotational limiting. The structure is reliable, and the slurry nozzle can be flexibly rotated and switched between extreme positions. It also eliminates the need to separately set a limiting structure outside the slurry discharge pipe for rotational limiting, thereby simplifying the structure of the slurry discharge pipe.

[0018] In a preferred embodiment, the slurry discharge pipe includes a vertical section passing through the installation port and an extension section laterally bent from the vertical section, and the outer wall of the vertical section is provided with a protrusion located below the installation port, and the first limiting portion and the second limiting portion respectively cooperate with the protrusion stop.

[0019] By arranging a protrusion on the outer wall of the vertical section, the vertical extension height of the first extension portion and the second extension portion can be reduced, which facilitates wiping and cleaning of the portion, and at the same time realizes rotational limitation between the protrusion and the limiting portion.

[0020] In a preferred embodiment, in the circumferential direction of the installation opening, an angle α formed between the first limiting portion and the second limiting portion satisfies 85°≤α≤90°.

[0021] By setting the angle formed between the first limiting part and the second limiting part at 85°-90°, it is possible to avoid the situation where the angle limit is too small, resulting in a small number of pre-installation positions formed in the paddle nozzle placement area, and at the same time avoid the situation where the rotation angle limit is too large, resulting in a long positioning stroke for the valve core and the paddle nozzle after the paddle nozzle is installed, making it difficult to find the position. Therefore, satisfying 85°≤α≤90° can provide a plurality of paddle nozzle pre-installation positions in the paddle nozzle placement area, thereby facilitating users to install freely and simplifying assembly. At the same time, it can realize rapid positioning of the valve core and the paddle nozzle, ensure the reliability of the transmission connection, and prevent the paddle nozzle from rotating and getting stuck and the valve core from idling.

[0022] In a preferred embodiment, the support platform is provided with a downwardly recessed groove, and the installation opening passes through the bottom wall of the groove, so that the pulp nozzle placement area is confined in the groove.

[0023] By providing a sinking groove, on the one hand, the mounting base of the pulp nozzle can be sunk into the sinking groove to avoid an increase in the height of the whole machine after assembly, thereby reducing the height of the whole machine. On the other hand, the pulp nozzle placement area is limited in the sinking groove, and when the user installs the pulp nozzle, the approximate installation position of the pulp nozzle can be clearly identified, which is conducive to the correct installation of the pulp nozzle.

[0024] In a preferred embodiment, the slurry nozzle further comprises a mounting seat fixed to the inlet end of the slurry discharge pipe, the mounting seat is supported above the slurry nozzle placement area, and the top surface of the mounting seat is not higher than the notch of the sink.

[0025] By setting the top surface of the mounting seat to be no higher than the notch of the sink groove, friction and interference between the upper end surface of the mounting seat and the bottom end of the cup body can be avoided, thereby improving the stability of the cup body installed on the supporting platform and the smoothness of the rotation of the paddle nozzle. In addition, it is beneficial to the avoidance between the paddle nozzle and the lower end surface of the valve body, and at the same time, a reliable transmission connection between the paddle nozzle and the valve core is achieved, and friction between the paddle nozzle and the lower end surface of the valve body is prevented, which causes the paddle nozzle to rotate unsmoothly.

[0042] like Figure 1-8 As shown, the utility model provides a food processing machine that is easy to use, including a main machine 10 with a supporting platform 20, a cup body 40, and a drain valve 30. The drain valve 30 includes a valve body 32 with a valve core 31 therein and a slurry nozzle 33 communicating with the valve core 31. The valve body 32 is installed on the cup body 40, and the cup body 40 is detachably installed above the supporting platform 20. The supporting platform 20 is provided with a mounting port, and the supporting platform 20 forms a slurry nozzle placement area surrounding the mounting port. The slurry nozzle 33 is detachably placed on the slurry nozzle placement area and can rotate with the valve core 31. The slurry discharge pipe 332 of the slurry nozzle 33 passes downward from the mounting port, as shown in FIG. Figure 4 As shown, the food processor also includes a first limiting portion 50 and a second limiting portion 60 for limiting the pulp discharge pipe 332 to limit the rotation angle of the pulp nozzle 33 . The first limiting portion 50 and the second limiting portion 60 are both protruding from the lower side of the support platform 20 .

[0043] Preferably, the food processor in this embodiment is a self-cleaning wall-breaking machine, and a crushing knife is arranged in the cup body to realize the preparation of soy milk. After the pulping is completed, the cup body can be automatically cleaned after adding water. Figure 1 As shown, the food processor also includes a pulp receiving cup 71 and a residual water box 72. Driven by the valve core 31, the pulp nozzle 33 has a pulp discharge position aligned with the pulp receiving cup 71 and a waste discharge position aligned with the residual water box 72 under the limitation of the first limit part 50 and the second limit part 60.

[0044] The utility model provides an easy-to-use food processor, in which the cup body 40 is detachably mounted above the support platform 20, and the support platform 20 is further provided with a paste nozzle placement area around the mounting opening, and the paste nozzle 33 is detachably placed on the paste nozzle placement area, so that both the cup body 40 and the paste nozzle 33 can be disassembled, thereby achieving diversified functions and deep cleaning of the drain valve 30, and being easy to use. The paddle nozzle 33 rotates with the valve core 31, and the first limit portion 50 and the second limit portion 60 limit the rotation angle of the paddle nozzle 33, so that the paddle nozzle 33 is limited by the first limit portion 50 and the second limit portion 60 when it rotates to the two extreme positions with the valve core 31, so that the paddle nozzle 33 can work reliably. Since the first limit portion 50 and the second limit portion 60 are both protruding from the lower side of the support platform 20, compared with the method of setting the limit portion on the upper surface of the support platform 20, the paddle nozzle placement area can be made wider, and the user has a good visual effect during the installation of the paddle nozzle 33. When the paddle nozzle 33 needs to be removed, the upper surface of the support platform 20 has a reasonable space to avoid the user's fingers, so that the user can easily take the paddle nozzle 33, and the paddle nozzle 33 can be smoothly disassembled and assembled. Since the cup body 40 is detachable, the paddle nozzle 33 can be installed before the cup body 40, so that the installation position of the paddle nozzle 33 is not unique, and the user can install it at will, thereby realizing quick installation of the paddle nozzle 33. In addition, the provision of the first limiting portion 50 and the second limiting portion 60 can play a guiding role in the process of the user passing the paddle nozzle 33 downward through the installation opening, preventing the user from installing the paddle nozzle 33 upside down, facilitating the subsequent positioning of the paddle nozzle 33 and the valve core 31 and the subsequent restoration of the initial position of the paddle nozzle 33, and the structure is reliable.

[0045] In a preferred embodiment, Figure 5 , 6 As shown in , 7, the first position-limiting portion 50 includes a first arc wall 51 extending along the circumference of the installation opening and a first straight wall 52 connected to the first arc wall 51, and the first straight wall 52 is matched with the stopper of the slurry discharge pipe 332. More preferably, the second position-limiting portion 60 includes a second arc wall 61 extending along the circumference of the installation opening and a second straight wall 62 connected to the second arc wall 61, and the second straight wall 62 is matched with the stopper of the slurry discharge pipe 332, and the second arc wall 61 extends to connect with the first arc wall 51.

[0046] The first limiting portion 50 includes a first arc wall 51 extending along the circumference of the installation opening, that is, the first arc wall 51 extends downward at a position close to the installation opening, so that when the user is installing the paddle nozzle 33, the first arc wall 51 has a certain guiding effect on the installation of the paddle nozzle 33. For example, some paddle nozzles 33 have a transversely bent extension portion. Due to the setting of the first arc wall 51, the paddle nozzle 33 is installed from top to bottom under the guidance of the first arc wall 51. At the same time, only the extension portion of the paddle nozzle 33 is allowed to be installed on the opposite side of the first arc wall 51, so that after the user installs the paddle nozzle 33, the paddle nozzle 33 can be close to the preset position, which is beneficial to the effective cooperation between the valve core 31 and the paddle nozzle 33, and realizes the subsequent rapid positioning between the valve core 31 and the paddle nozzle 33. The first straight wall 52 cooperates with the stopper of the slurry discharge pipe 332 to limit the slurry discharge pipe 332 after the slurry discharge pipe 332 reaches the first extreme position. Since the first straight wall 52 is connected to the first arc wall 51, a gap is avoided and the slurry discharge pipe 332 is prevented from being stuck in the gap during installation, so that the slurry nozzle 33 can be installed correctly.

[0047] By arranging the second arc wall 61 on the second extension part, the second arc wall 61 and the first arc wall 51 are connected to guide the installation of the slurry nozzle 33 together, so that the installation of the slurry nozzle 33 has more directional limitations, which can facilitate the correct and quick installation of the slurry nozzle 33, and the second straight wall 62 cooperates with the stopper of the slurry discharge pipe 332 to limit the slurry discharge pipe 332 after the slurry discharge pipe 332 reaches the second extreme position, and the limitation is reliable.

[0048] Of course, it should be noted that, in fact, in other embodiments, the first limiting portion 50 may also be a structure that only includes the first straight wall 52 to achieve the stopping and limiting of the discharge pipe.

[0049] Alternatively, the second limiting portion 60 is optionally connected to or intermittently provided with the first limiting portion 50 .

[0050] In a preferred embodiment, Figure 8 As shown, the support platform 20 includes a support seat 21 which is arched upward to define a accommodating cavity on the lower side. The top wall of the support seat 21 includes a first support wall 211, a transition wall 212 and a second support wall 213 which is connected to each other and is sunken relative to the first support wall 211. The installation opening is opened on the first support wall 211, and the outer side surface of the transition wall 212 forms a second limiting portion 60 or a first limiting portion 50.

[0051] More preferably, if Figure 8As shown, the first support wall 211, the transition wall 212 and the second support wall 213 define a mounting groove, the support platform 20 further includes a motor assembly 22 fixed in the mounting groove, and the cup body 40 is supported on the upper end surface of the motor assembly 22. Specifically, the motor assembly 22 includes a motor body 223, a motor bracket 222 and a shock-absorbing pad 221 laid above the motor bracket 222, and the motor bracket 222 extends from the notch of the mounting groove to above the first support wall 211 of the support seat 21 to form a larger support area.

[0052] The support platform 20 includes a support seat 21, and the support seat 21 is arched upward to define a receiving cavity on the lower side, which can be used to install a slurry cup or a residual water box. The space of the whole machine is reasonably utilized. Moreover, the second support wall 213 of the support seat 21 is sunken relative to the first support wall 211 to support different components, so that the motor assembly 22 can be installed just by using the installation groove above the support seat 21. The cup body 40 is supported on the upper end surface of the motor assembly 22, which is conducive to reducing the height of the whole machine. The transition wall 212 naturally formed by the support seat 21 is used to form the second limiting portion 60 or the first limiting portion 50. There is no need to set up other structures to limit the extreme position of the slurry nozzle 33. The support seat 21 integrates multiple functions, the whole machine structure is simple, and the space utilization is reasonable. Moreover, the transition wall 212 has a large enough area to limit the slurry nozzle 33, and the limiting is reliable.

[0053] The present invention does not limit the limiting method between the limiting portion and the slurry discharge pipe 332. For example, in a preferred embodiment, Figure 8 As shown, the slurry discharge pipe 332 includes a vertical section 3321 passing through the installation opening and an extension section 3322 bent transversely from the vertical section 3321. Figure 4 As shown, the first limiting portion 50 and the second limiting portion 60 both extend downward to overlap with the extending section 3322 in height, so that the first limiting portion 50 and the second limiting portion 60 respectively cooperate with the extending section 3322 to stop.

[0054] By providing the slurry discharge pipe 332 with a vertical section 3321 passing through the installation opening and an extension section 3322 laterally bent from the vertical section 3321, and using the vertical section 3321 and the installation opening for radial limitation, the slurry discharge pipe 332 can be flexibly rotated in the installation opening, and the first limiting portion 50 and the second limiting portion 60 both extend downward to a height overlap with the extension section 3322, so that the extension section 3322 directly cooperates with the first limiting portion 50 and the second limiting portion 60 to achieve rotational limitation. The structure is reliable, and the slurry nozzle 33 can be flexibly rotated and switched between the extreme positions. It also eliminates the need to separately set a limiting structure outside the slurry discharge pipe 332 for rotational limitation, thereby simplifying the structure of the slurry discharge pipe 332.

[0055] In addition to the above-mentioned limiting method in which the extension portion of the slurry discharge pipe 332 directly cooperates with the limiting portion, in another embodiment, the slurry discharge pipe 332 includes a vertical section 3321 passing through the installation port and an extension section 3322 laterally bent from the vertical section 3321, and the outer wall of the vertical section 3321 is provided with a protrusion located below the installation port, and the first limiting portion 50 and the second limiting portion 60 respectively cooperate with the protrusion stop.

[0056] By arranging a protrusion on the outer wall of the vertical section 3321, the vertical extension height of the first extension portion and the second extension portion can be reduced, which facilitates wiping and cleaning of the portion, and at the same time realizes rotational limitation between the protrusion and the limiting portion.

[0057] In a preferred embodiment, in combination Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, in the circumferential direction of the installation opening, the angle α formed between the first limiting portion 50 and the second limiting portion 60 satisfies 85°≤α≤90°. Figure 6 As shown, the pulp nozzle 33 is limited at the pulp discharge position by the first limiting portion 50, and the pulp discharge pipe 332 is aligned with the pulp receiving cup at this position to discharge the pulp prepared in the cup body 40, such as Figure 7 As shown, the pulp nozzle 33 is limited at the waste discharge position by the second limiting portion 60, and the pulp discharge pipe 332 is aligned with the residual water box at this position for discharging the cleaning waste water.

[0058] By setting the angle formed between the first limit part 50 and the second limit part 60 to 85°-90°, it is possible to avoid the situation where the angle limit is too small, resulting in a small number of pre-installation positions formed in the paddle nozzle placement area, and at the same time avoid the situation where the rotation angle limit is too large, resulting in a long positioning stroke for the valve core 31 and the paddle nozzle 33 after the paddle nozzle 33 is installed, making it difficult to find the position. Therefore, satisfying 85°≤α≤90° can provide a plurality of pre-installation positions for the paddle nozzle 33 in the paddle nozzle placement area, thereby facilitating users to install freely and simplifying assembly. At the same time, it can realize rapid positioning of the valve core 31 and the paddle nozzle 33, ensuring the reliability of the transmission connection, and preventing the paddle nozzle 33 from rotating and getting stuck and the valve core 31 from idling.

[0059] In a preferred embodiment, Figure 3 As shown, the support platform 20 is provided with a downwardly concave sink 201, and the installation opening penetrates the bottom wall of the sink, so that the slurry nozzle placement area is limited in the sink. More preferably, as Figure 1 As shown, the slurry nozzle 33 also includes a mounting seat 331 fixed to the inlet end of the slurry discharge pipe 332. The mounting seat 331 is supported above the slurry nozzle placement area, and the top surface of the mounting seat 331 is not higher than the notch of the sink.

[0060] For example Figure 8 As shown, the sink is arranged on the upper surface of the motor bracket 222, and the shock-absorbing pad 221 is provided with an opening for exposing the sink.

[0061] In fact, since the shock-absorbing pad 221 has a certain thickness, an avoidance opening can be set on the shock-absorbing pad 221. When the shock-absorbing pad 221 is laid on the motor bracket 222, the upper surfaces of the shock-absorbing pad 221 and the motor bracket 222 form the above-mentioned sinking groove to realize the sinking installation of the mounting seat 331 of the pulp nozzle 33.

[0062] By providing a sinking groove, on the one hand, the mounting base 331 of the pulp nozzle 33 can be sunk into the sinking groove to avoid an increase in the height of the entire machine after assembly, thereby reducing the height of the entire machine. On the other hand, the pulp nozzle placement area is limited in the sinking groove, and when the user installs the pulp nozzle 33, the approximate installation position of the pulp nozzle 33 can be clearly identified, which is conducive to the correct installation of the pulp nozzle 33.

[0063] By setting the top surface of the mounting seat 331 not higher than the notch of the sink groove, friction and interference between the upper end surface of the mounting seat 331 and the bottom end of the cup body 40 can be avoided, thereby improving the stability of the cup body 40 installed on the support platform 20 and the smoothness of the rotation of the paddle nozzle 33. In addition, it is beneficial to the avoidance between the paddle nozzle 33 and the lower end surface of the valve body 32, and at the same time, a reliable transmission connection between the paddle nozzle 33 and the valve core 31 is achieved, and friction between the paddle nozzle 33 and the lower end surface of the valve body 32 is prevented, which causes the paddle nozzle 33 to rotate unsmoothly.
