Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of household electrical appliances, and in particular to a mounting structure and a food processor. Background Art

[0002] A food processor is a household appliance that integrates the functions of making soy milk, grinding dry powder, squeezing juice, making meat stuffing, and shaved ice. It is used to make a variety of foods such as juice, soy milk, jam, dry powder, shaved ice, and meat stuffing. It is the product of the juicer becoming more diversified.

[0003] The food processor includes a blade assembly, which is used to crush the material when powered on. Therefore, after the material is prepared, residue will stick to the surface of the blade assembly, and the blade needs to be cleaned. If the blade assembly and the food processor are cleaned at the same time, the blade assembly may scratch the hands, and some parts of the blade cannot be cleaned. Therefore, sometimes the blade assembly needs to be disassembled for cleaning. However, the current blade assembly is usually installed on the food processor with bolts, and needs to be installed and removed by external tools such as wrenches, which makes the disassembly and assembly of the blade assembly troublesome. Summary of the Invention

[0004] In order to solve at least one problem existing in the above-mentioned prior art, according to one aspect of the present invention, a mounting structure is provided for locking the knife assembly to the base, comprising: a rotating bracket, rotatably connected relative to the base; a locking block, mounted on the base, for locking or unlocking the rotating bracket; a knife locking seat, slidably connected relative to the base, for sliding relative to the base as the rotating bracket rotates, so as to lock the knife assembly in cooperation with the rotating bracket in a locked state, and unlock the knife assembly in cooperation with the rotating bracket in an unlocked state.

[0005] In this way, the rotating bracket is locked or unlocked by the locking block, and the movement of the rotating bracket is used to drive the locking knife seat to move, so that the locking knife seat knife assembly has a locked or unlocked state corresponding to the different states of the rotating bracket, that is, by driving the rotation of the rotating bracket, the knife assembly can be conveniently locked or unlocked relative to the base, so that the knife assembly can be disassembled and installed, which is convenient for the user's operation.

[0006] In some embodiments, the knife locking seat includes a push rod and a slider; the push rod is used to move in a first direction when the rotating bracket is switched between an unlocked state and a locked state; the slider is used to move in a second direction under the push of the push rod to lock or unlock the knife assembly, wherein the first direction and the second direction are perpendicular.

[0007] In this way, by setting the knife locking seat to include a push rod and a slider, the push rod is driven to move in the first direction by the rotation of the rotating bracket, and the movement of the push rod is then used to drive the movement of the slider to achieve locking or unlocking of the knife assembly. For example, the knife assembly can be locked by plugging or snapping, etc., which can be easily disassembled.

[0008] In some embodiments, the knife locking seat further includes a first elastic member, which is connected between the slider and the base along the second direction and is used to apply elastic force to the slider.

[0009] In this way, when the slider locks the knife assembly, the slider locks the knife assembly under the pressure of the first elastic member. At the same time, when the knife assembly is installed, the first elastic member can be compressed by the slider, making it easier for the knife assembly to pass through the groove in the push rod for installation.

[0010] In some embodiments, the rotating bracket includes a rotating part and a driving part provided on the rotating part, and the push rod has a supporting part, which is used to cooperate with the driving part so that under the rotation of the rotating part, the driving part drives the push rod to slide in the first direction relative to the base.

[0011] In this way, the push rod pushes the slider to move, and the movement of the slider realizes the locking or unlocking of the knife setting assembly, so that the locking or unlocking of the knife setting assembly can be realized by the rotation of the rotating part, which is convenient for the user's operation.

[0012] In some embodiments, the abutting portion has a abutting surface facing the driving portion, the driving portion has a driving surface facing the abutting portion, the abutting surface can at least partially fit with the driving surface, and the abutting surface and the driving surface can rotate relative to each other.

[0013] In this way, through the contact between the abutting surface and the driving surface, the rotation of the driving surface drives the abutting surface to move in the first direction.

[0014] In some embodiments, the slider includes a sliding portion and a locking portion, the first elastic member is connected between the base and the sliding portion, the locking portion is used to lock or unlock the knife assembly, the thickness of the locking portion is smaller than the thickness of the sliding portion, and a step is formed at the connection between the locking portion and the sliding portion.

[0015] In this way, the thickness of the clamping part is set to be smaller than the thickness of the sliding part, and a step is formed between the two, so that the clamping part with smaller thickness can be correspondingly inserted into the groove of the knife assembly. At the same time, the step can support the knife assembly, so that the two relatively set steps clamp the knife assembly to ensure the installation stability of the knife assembly.

[0016] In some embodiments, the locking knife seat further includes a second elastic member connected between the push rod and the base, and the rotating bracket and the second elastic member are located at opposite ends of the push rod along the first direction.

[0017] In this way, by setting the second elastic member, when the rotating bracket and the knife assembly move toward the locked state, the push rod compresses the second elastic member. When the rotating bracket and the knife assembly are in the locked state, the second elastic member is in a compressed state; when the knife assembly needs to be unlocked and disassembled, the rotating bracket is unlocked, and the push rod bounces back to its original position under the elastic force of the second elastic member, thereby facilitating the next locking use.

[0018] In some embodiments, a third elastic member is further included, wherein the third elastic member is connected between the locking block and the base and is used to apply elastic force to the locking block.

[0019] In this way, by providing the third elastic member, after the rotating bracket is unlocked, the locking block is rebounded to its original position under the elastic force of the third elastic member, so as to facilitate the next locking of the rotating bracket.

[0020] In some embodiments, a through hole is provided on the rotating bracket, and a side of the locking block facing the rotating bracket can be exposed from the through hole.

[0021] In this way, by providing a through hole in the rotating bracket, it is convenient for a hand to be inserted into the through hole to apply an external force to the locking block, thereby compressing the third elastic member to unlock the locking block and the rotating bracket.

[0022] In a second aspect, the present invention also provides a food processor, comprising: a cup body; a base, the base being mounted on the bottom of the cup body and having a through hole; a knife assembly passing through the through hole; and the above-mentioned mounting structure being slidably mounted on the bottom of the base for locking or unlocking the knife assembly.

[0023] In this way, by providing the installation structure, the knife assembly can be unlocked and installed by rotating the rotating bracket, which is convenient for the user's operation. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

The terms used in the specification of the present invention herein are only for the purpose of describing specific embodiments and are not intended to limit the present invention.

[0050] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0051] See also Figures 1 to 12 , which is a mounting structure 100 provided in the first embodiment of the present invention, is used to lock or unlock the knife assembly 200 relative to the base 300. The mounting structure 100 includes: a rotating bracket 10, a locking block 20 and a knife locking seat 30.

[0052] Among them, see Figures 1 to 3 The mounting structure 100 in this embodiment is applied to a food processor 400. The food processor 400 has a cup body 410, a knife assembly 200 and a base 300. The cup body 410 has a receiving cavity 411. The knife assembly 200 is partially received in the receiving cavity 411 to crush the material. A through hole 310 is opened in the base 300. After the knife assembly 200 partially passes through the through hole 310, it is locked by the mounting structure 100, thereby installing the knife assembly 200 on the cup body 410 and the base 300.

[0053] Among them, see Figure 2 、 Figure 4 as well as Figure 5The rotating bracket 10 in this embodiment is rotatably connected to the base 300; the locking block 20 is installed on the base 300 for locking or unlocking the rotating bracket 10; the knife locking seat 30 is slidably connected to the base 300 and moves under the drive of the rotating bracket 10, and is used to adapt to the rotation of the rotating bracket 10. It slides relative to the base 300 as the rotating bracket 10 rotates, so as to lock the knife assembly 200 with the rotating bracket 10 in the locked state, and unlock the knife assembly 200 with the rotating bracket 10 in the unlocked state, that is, when the rotating bracket 10 is in the locked state relative to the locking block 20, the knife locking seat 30 locks the knife assembly 200; and when the rotating bracket 10 is in the unlocked state relative to the locking block 20, the knife locking seat 30 unlocks the knife assembly 200.

[0054] The above-mentioned mounting structure 100 locks or unlocks the rotating bracket 10 through the locking block 20, and drives the locking knife seat 30 to move through the movement of the rotating bracket 10, so that the locking knife seat 30 has a locked or unlocked state corresponding to the different states of the rotating bracket 10, that is, by driving the rotation of the rotating bracket 10, the knife assembly 200 can be conveniently locked or unlocked relative to the base 300, so as to disassemble and install the knife assembly 200, which is convenient for user operation.

[0055] Specifically, see Figure 5 、 Figure 8 and Figure 9 In one embodiment of the present invention, the rotating bracket 10 includes a rotating part 11 and a driving part 12 provided on the rotating part 11. The knife locking seat 30 includes a push rod 31. The push rod 31 has a supporting part 311. The supporting part 311 is used to cooperate with the driving part 12 so that when the rotating part 11 rotates, the driving part 12 drives the push rod 31 to slide relative to the base 300, so that the push rod 31 pushes the slider 32 to move, and the movement of the slider 32 realizes the locking or unlocking of the knife assembly 200, so that the locking or unlocking of the knife assembly 200 can be realized by the rotation of the rotating part 11, which is convenient for the user's operation.

[0056] Specifically, to make the structural installation more compact, the driving portion 12 in this embodiment is rotatably connected relative to the base 300. Therefore, when the rotating portion 11 rotates under the action of an external force, the driving portion 12 is connected to the rotating portion 11, thereby driving the driving portion 12 to rotate. The rotation of the driving portion 12 pushes the push rod 31 to move in the first direction, and the movement of the push rod 31 pushes the slider 32 to move in the second direction, thereby achieving the locking and unlocking of the knife assembly 200. At the same time, since the rotating shaft 40 is installed on the driving portion 12, the driving portion 12 can smoothly push the push rod 31 to move. In other embodiments, the rotating shaft 40 can also be installed on the rotating portion 11.

[0057] Specifically, see Figure 9 and Figure 10 When the supporting portion 311 and the driving portion 12 in this embodiment cooperate, the supporting portion 311 has a supporting surface 3111 facing the driving portion 12, and the driving portion 12 has a driving surface 121 facing the supporting portion 311. The supporting surface 3111 can at least partially fit with the driving surface 121, and the supporting surface 3111 and the driving surface 121 can rotate with each other, so that the supporting surface 3111 is driven to move in the first direction by the rotation of the driving surface 121 through the fit between the supporting surface 3111 and the driving surface 121.

[0058] Specifically, in this embodiment, the abutting surface 3111 is a flat surface, and the driving surface 121 is an arcuate surface convex toward the abutting portion 311, so that the arcuate driving surface 121 can smoothly rotate on the abutting surface 3111 to drive the push rod 31 to move in the first direction. In other embodiments, when the driving surface 121 is an arcuate surface, the abutting surface 3111 can also be configured as a concave arcuate surface that is inwardly concave, or as a convex arcuate surface that is convex toward the driving surface 121, as needed; or the driving surface 121 can be configured as a concave surface that is inwardly concave, and the abutting surface 3111 can be configured as an arcuate surface that is convex toward the driving surface 121, and this is not limited here.

[0059] The rotating bracket 10 in this embodiment includes two separately arranged driving parts 12. Correspondingly, two separately arranged abutting parts 311 are provided on the push rod 31. One abutting part 311 is used to cooperate with one driving part 12 to achieve smooth movement of the driving push rod 31.

[0060] Among them, see Figure 4 、 Figure 8 as well as Figure 9 In this embodiment, the locking method of the rotating bracket 10 and the locking block 20 is through a clamping method. Specifically, a clamping block 13 is provided on the side of the rotating bracket 10 facing the locking block 20, and a clamping slot 21 is provided on the locking block 20. The clamping block 13 is used to clamp with the clamping slot 21. Therefore, by providing the clamping block 13 on the rotating bracket 10, it can be quickly clamped in the clamping slot 21, thereby realizing the locking of the rotating bracket 10 by the locking block 20.

[0061] It can be understood that in order to facilitate the unlocking of the rotating bracket 10, the mounting structure 100 in this embodiment also includes a third elastic member 50, which is connected between the locking block 20 and the base 300, and is used to be compressed under the pressure of the locking block 20 to apply elastic force to the locking block 20, so that the locking block 20 and the rotating bracket 10 are separated, thereby achieving the unlocking of the rotating bracket 10, and at the same time, the locking block 20 is rebounded to its original position after the rotating bracket 10 is unlocked relative to the locking block 20. Therefore, by setting the third elastic member 50, when the third elastic member 50 is compressed, the locking block 20 and the rotating bracket 10 can be separated. When the external force pressing on the locking block 20 is lost, the locking block 20 is rebounded to its original position under the elastic force of the third elastic member 50 for use during locking.

[0062] See also Figure 5 and Figure 8 In one embodiment of the present invention, the knife locking seat 30 includes a push rod 31 and a slider 32 that can slide with each other. The push rod 31 is used to move in a first direction when the rotating bracket 10 is switched between the unlocked state and the locked state; the slider 32 is used to move in a second direction under the push of the push rod 31 to lock or unlock the knife assembly 200, wherein the first direction and the second direction are perpendicular. Therefore, by configuring the knife locking seat 30 to include a push rod 31 and a slider 32, the push rod 31 is driven to move in the first direction by the rotation of the rotating bracket 10, and the movement of the push rod 31 is used to drive the movement of the slider 32 to achieve locking or unlocking of the knife assembly 200. For example, the locking method of the knife assembly 200 by the slider 32 can be locked by plugging or snapping, etc., which can be easily disassembled.

[0063] See also Figures 5 to 7 In one embodiment of the present invention, in order to enable the slider 32 to sufficiently lock the knife assembly 200, the knife locking seat 30 in this embodiment also includes a first elastic member 33, and the first elastic member 33 is connected between the slider 32 and the base 300 along the second direction, and is used to apply elastic force to the slider 32, that is, to apply elastic force to the knife assembly 200 through the slider 32, so that when the slider 32 locks the knife assembly 200, the slider 32 locks the knife assembly 200 under the pressure of the first elastic member 33, and at the same time, when the knife assembly 200 is installed, the first elastic member 33 can be compressed by the slider 32, so that the knife assembly 200 can pass through the groove 315 in the push rod 31 for installation.

[0064] The groove 315 in this embodiment is U-shaped, see Figure 8 、 Figure 10 as well as Figure 11In order to correspond to the through hole 310 on the base 300 for the knife assembly 200 to pass through, the knife assembly 200 is sequentially penetrated with the through hole 310 and the groove 315 when being installed.

[0065] Among them, see Figure 8 、 Figure 10 as well as Figure 11 The push rod 31 in this embodiment includes two parallel and separated pushing parts 312, and a connecting part 313 connected between one ends of the two pushing parts 312. The connecting part 313 is provided with the above-mentioned supporting part 311, and the pushing part 312 extends in the first direction. The space between the two pushing parts 312 is a groove 315 for the knife assembly 200 to pass through. Therefore, by setting the push rod 31 to include two pushing parts 312, it is convenient for the setting position of the through hole 310 to correspond, and it is convenient to set a slider 32 at each pushing part 312, so as to clamp the knife assembly 200 through the two sliders 32 to ensure the stability of the installation of the knife assembly 200.

[0066] Specifically, see Figure 10 and Figure 11 When the cam 314 is in the unlocked position, the cam 314 can be turned to the unlocked position 3142 to unlock the cam 310. When the cam 314 is in the unlocked position, the cam 314 can be turned to the unlocked position 3142 to unlock the cam 310.

[0067] Specifically, see Figure 10 and Figure 11 In this embodiment, the width of the slide groove 314 gradually increases from the locked position 3141 toward the unlocked position 3142. This provides sufficient space for the guide post 321 to move when it is in the unlocked position 3142. This allows the knife assembly 200 to be installed by compressing the first elastic member 33 and then penetrating the through hole 310 and the groove 315, thereby facilitating the installation of the knife assembly 200. In other embodiments, the slide groove 314 may be provided with a uniform width while ensuring that the slide groove 314 has sufficient space for the guide post 321 to slide.

[0068] Specifically, see Figure 6 and Figure 7, which is a schematic diagram of the slider 32 and the first elastic member 33 installed on the base 300. In order to push the slider 32 in the first direction when the knife assembly 200 is installed, the guide post 321 in the slider 32 and the slide groove 314 in the push rod 31 are spaced apart by a distance L1. Furthermore, to ensure the installation security of the knife assembly 200, the knife assembly 200 in this embodiment forms an interference fit with the slider 32 after installation. L2 is the interference fit dimension, which prevents the knife assembly 200 from falling off due to its own weight after installation.

[0069] The slide groove 314 in this embodiment is formed by overlapping two waist-shaped holes. The fully overlapping portion is the locking position 3141, which is located near the center of the through hole 310. The partially overlapping portion is the unlocking position 3142. Thus, after the two waist-shaped holes partially overlap, that is, the circular portions overlap, the non-overlapping portion and the overlapping portion constitute a wider unlocking area, facilitating the movement of the guide post 321 when pressing the first elastic member 33. In other embodiments, the slide groove 314 can also be configured as other shapes, for example, the locking position 3141 can be configured as another arc shape.

[0070] Specifically, the center of the two waist-shaped holes in this embodiment is c, and the distance D1 between the centers c of the two is in the range of 0.5-4.0 mm, so that when the distance between the two is too small, the range of movement of the guide column 321 in the unlocking position 3142 is too small, and the first elastic member 33 cannot be compressed with a large stroke. At this time, the fitting width of the knife assembly 200 is small, resulting in the slider 32 failing to lock the knife assembly 200; at the same time, when the distance between the two is too large, the range of movement of the guide column 321 in the unlocking position 3142 is too large, the fitting width of the knife assembly 200 is large, and the friction with the slider 32 is large during disassembly, making it difficult to pull out.

[0071] Specifically, the angle α between the axial direction of the slide groove 314 and the first direction in this embodiment is an acute angle, so that when the rotating bracket 10 pushes the push rod 31 to move in the first direction, due to the angle α between the axial direction of the slide groove 314 and the first direction, the axial direction of the slide groove 314 and the first direction are not parallel. At this time, the guide column 321 located in the slide groove 314 cannot move in the first direction, and can only move in the second direction under the push of the first side wall 3143 and the second side wall 3144 of the slide groove 314, that is, the slider 32 moves toward or away from the center direction of the through hole 310.

[0072] Specifically, in order to ensure that the slider 32 and the push rod 31 have a suitable stroke, the two do not need to slide too large or too small a distance to achieve the locking of the knife assembly 200. In this embodiment, the acute angle α between the axial direction of the slide groove 314 and the first direction is in the range of 25°-65°, so that when the angle α is designed to be too small, it is necessary to push the push rod 31 in the first direction for a long distance before pushing the slider 32 to the appropriate position, resulting in inconvenience in adjustment; at the same time, when the angle α is set too large, after pushing the push rod 31 in the first direction for a short distance, the slider 32 moves a long distance in the second direction, making it more difficult to control the slider 32.

[0073] See also Figure 11 In one embodiment of the present invention, the stroke D2 of the push rod 31 when it moves from the locked position 3141 to the unlocked position 3142 is greater than the stroke D3 of the guide column 321 of the slider 32 when it moves from the locked position 3141 to the unlocked position 3142, that is, the movement distance of the push rod 31 between locking and unlocking is greater than the movement distance of the slider 31 between locking and unlocking. The movement distance of the push rod 31 is larger, so that the drive of the slider 31 by the push rod 31 can be adjusted more accurately.

[0074] See also Figure 12 When the handle 321 is unlocked, the locking cam 323 is unlocked and the locking cam 323 is unlocked, so that the user can lock the handle 321 in the unlocking state.

[0075] See also Figure 4In one embodiment of the present invention, in order to facilitate the push rod 31 to return to its original position after the rotating bracket 10 is in the unlocked state, the knife locking seat 30 further includes a second elastic member 34, which is connected between the push rod 31 and the base 300 along the first direction, and the rotating bracket 10 and the second elastic member 34 are located at opposite ends of the push rod 31, so that by setting the second elastic member 34, when the rotating bracket 10 and the knife assembly 200 move toward the locked state, the push rod 31 compresses the second elastic member 34, and when the rotating bracket 10 and the knife assembly 200 are in the locked state, the second elastic member 34 is in a compressed state; when the knife assembly 200 needs to be unlocked and disassembled, after the rotating bracket 10 is unlocked, the push rod 31 is rebounded to its original position under the elastic force of the second elastic member 34, thereby facilitating the next locking use.

[0076] It can be understood that since the locking method of the rotating bracket 10 and the locking block 20 in this embodiment is to lock by means of a card block and a card slot, in order to facilitate unlocking the rotating bracket 10, the mounting structure 100 in this embodiment also includes a third elastic member 50, which is connected between the locking block 20 and the base 300, and is used to apply pressure to the locking block 20, and push the locking knife seat 30 to return to its original position after the locking block 20 unlocks the rotating bracket 10. Therefore, by setting the third elastic member 50, when the rotating bracket 10 is unlocked, the locking block 20 is bounced back to its original position under the elastic force of the third elastic member 50, so as to facilitate the next locking of the rotating bracket 10.

[0077] In addition, in order to facilitate the pressing operation of the third elastic member 50 when unlocking the rotating bracket 10, a through hole 14 is provided on the rotating bracket 10 in this embodiment, and the locking block 20 can be exposed from the through hole 14 on the side facing the rotating bracket 10. Therefore, by providing the through hole 14 in the rotating bracket 10, it is convenient to extend the hand into the through hole 14 to apply external force to the locking block 20, thereby compressing the third elastic member 50, thereby unlocking the locking block 20 and the rotating bracket 10.

[0078] See also Figures 1 to 4 In a second embodiment, the present invention further provides a food processor 400 , comprising a cup body 410 , a knife assembly 200 , a base 300 and the aforementioned mounting structure 100 .

[0079] The base 300 is installed at the bottom of the cup body 410, and a through hole 310 is provided on the base 300; the knife assembly 200 passes through the through hole 310; the above-mentioned mounting structure 100 is slidably mounted on the bottom of the base 300 for locking and unlocking the knife assembly 200.
