[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of food processing equipment. Specifically, the present invention relates to a food processor and its control method, device, and readable storage medium. Background Art
[0002] In the existing food processors, after the ingredients are pulverized, it is usually necessary for the user to manually filter the slurry discharged from the food processor using a separate filtering device. This traditional manual filtering method cannot achieve automatic filtering by the machine, and has low filtering efficiency and cumbersome operation, which affects the user experience. Summary of the Invention
[0003] The present invention aims to solve one of the technical problems existing in the prior art or related technologies.
[0004] To this end, a first aspect of the present invention is to provide a food processor.
[0005] A second aspect of the present invention is to provide a control method for a food processor.
[0006] A third aspect of the present invention is to provide a control device for a food processor.
[0007] A fourth aspect of the present invention is to provide a food processor.
[0008] A fifth aspect of the present invention is to provide a readable storage medium.
[0009] In view of this, a first aspect of the present invention provides a food processor, including: a first main body; a pulverizing device disposed within the first main body, the pulverizing device having a pulverizing chamber, the pulverizing device including a first liquid discharge port communicating with the pulverizing chamber; a filtering device capable of moving relative to the first main body, the filtering device having a first liquid inlet; wherein, when the filtering device is in a first position, the first liquid inlet communicates with the first liquid discharge port, and when the filtering device is in a second position, the first liquid inlet is separated from the first liquid discharge port.
[0010] The food processor provided by the present invention includes a first main body, a pulverizing device, and a filtering device. Among them, the pulverizing device is disposed within the first main body and is used to pulverize the ingredients to make them into tiny granular solids. The pulverizing device has a pulverizing chamber. After the ingredients are placed in the pulverizing chamber, the pulverizing device processes the ingredients in the pulverizing chamber to pulverize them.
[0011] Furthermore, a filtering device is disposed within the first main body and is used for filtering the solid-liquid mixture within the crushing chamber. When the filtering assembly is disposed within the filtering device, the crushing chamber is in communication with the first liquid inlet of the filtering assembly. Specifically, the crushing chamber is provided with a second liquid outlet for discharging the solid-liquid mixture within the crushing chamber, and the second liquid outlet of the crushing chamber is in communication with the first liquid inlet of the filtering assembly, so that the solid-liquid mixture that has completed the crushing process within the crushing chamber flows into the filtering assembly and is filtered by the filtering assembly.
[0012] Furthermore, the filtering device is movably disposed within the food processor and can be adjusted to a reasonable position as needed. Specifically, when the filtering device is in the first position, the first liquid inlet is in communication with the first liquid discharge port; when the filtering device is in the second position, the first liquid inlet is separated from the first liquid discharge port.
[0013] Among them, when the filtering device is in the first position and the first liquid inlet is in communication with the first liquid discharge port, at this time, the filtering device can be in a working state, and the food to be filtered is fed into the filtering device through the first liquid inlet. After the filtering device completes the filtering, the filtered food is discharged through the first liquid discharge port.
[0014] When the filtering device is in the second position and the first liquid inlet is separated from the first liquid discharge port, at this time, the filtering device is in a non-working state, and the filtering device is far away from the first main body of the food processor, which facilitates the cleaning of the filtering device.
[0015] By providing a crushing device and a filtering device in the food processor, one-stop processing of crushing and filtering of food materials is achieved. Without separately filtering the processed liquid containing impurities again, a liquid without impurities or with a very low impurity content can be obtained. The operation is simple and convenient to use, improving the user experience. By making the filtering device located in the first position and the second position, when the filtering device is not working, it is far away from the first main body of the food processor, facilitating the user to clean the filtering device and improving the user experience.
[0016] In addition, according to the food processor provided by the above technical solution of the present invention, the following additional technical features may further be included:
[0017] In the above technical solution, further, a receiving space is provided on the first main body, and the filtering device is detachably disposed in the receiving groove or the filtering device is movably disposed in the receiving space.
[0018] In this technical solution, the filter device can be located in a first position that connects the first liquid inlet and the first liquid outlet. In this position, the filter device is in an operating state. To ensure that the filter device remains stable in the operating state, a receiving groove or receiving space is provided on the first body. When the filter device is in the first position, the filter device is located in the receiving groove or receiving space, so that the filter device remains stable in the operating state, thereby ensuring normal operation of the filter device.
[0019] Specifically, the first body is provided with a receiving groove, and the filter device is detachable from the first body. When the filter device is in a first position, the filter device is located in the receiving groove. When the filter device is in a second position, the filter device is separated from the first body, thereby allowing the filter device to be removed from the receiving groove.
[0020] In another technical solution, a first body is provided with a receiving space, and a filter device is connected to the first body, and the filter device is movable relative to the first body. When the filter device is in a first position, the filter device is close to the first body and located in the receiving space. When the filter device is in a second position, the filter device is away from the receiving space on the first body.
[0021] By providing a receiving space on the first body, the filter device is placed in the receiving space when in operation, providing a certain degree of protection for the filter device, keeping the filter device stable in operation and ensuring that the filter device can function normally. When the filter device is in the second position, the filter device is separated from the receiving space, making it easier for the user to clean the filter device and improving its convenience.
[0022] In the above technical solution, further, based on the filtering device being movably arranged in the accommodating space, the food processor includes: a movable connecting member arranged in the filtering device, and the filtering device is switched between a first position and a second position through the movable connecting member.
[0023] In this technical solution, the filter device and the first body can be movably connected. Since the filter device is movably disposed in the storage space, the food processor includes a movable connector for connecting the filter device to the first body. The movable connector is disposed on the filter device, and the filter device switches between a first position and a second position via the movable connector. Specifically, the filter device is connected to the first body via the movable connector, with the other end being free. The filter device always remains connected to the first body via the movable connector, but at the same time, the filter device can move around the movable connector between the first position and the second position, thereby entering and exiting the storage space.
[0024] By providing a movable connecting member in the food processor, the filtering device is connected to the first main body through the movable connecting member, so that the filtering device can be both connected to the first main body and switched back and forth between a first position and a second position.
[0025] In the above technical solution, further, the movable connecting member includes: a mounting through-hole provided on one of the filtering device or the first main body; a rotating shaft provided on the other of the filtering device or the first main body, and the rotating shaft can rotate within the mounting through-hole.
[0026] In this technical solution, the movable connecting member includes a mounting through-hole and a rotating shaft. Among them, a mounting through-hole is provided on the filtering device or the first main body, and the rotating shaft is disposed within the mounting through-hole. The rotating shaft can be disposed on the first main body or on the filtering device, and the filtering device is connected to the first main body through the rotating shaft. The rotating shaft can rotate within the mounting through-hole, so that the filtering device can rotate relative to the first main body around the rotating shaft, realizing the position switching of the filtering device between the first position and the second position.
[0027] By providing a rotating shaft in the movable connecting member, the filtering device rotates relative to the first main body around the rotating shaft. The filtering device and the first main body are movably connected in a rotating manner, enabling the operator to rotate the filtering device to the first position when the filtering device is working, and rotate the filtering device to the second position when the filtering device needs to be cleaned, and adjust the position of the filtering device as needed, improving the operation convenience.
[0028] In the above technical solution, further, based on the filtering device being detachably disposed in the accommodating space, the food processor further includes: a first electrical coupling member disposed on the first main body; a second electrical coupling member disposed on the filtering device; wherein, based on the second electrical coupling device being electrically connected to the first electrical coupling member, the filtering device is connected to the first main body, and the filtering device is in the first position; based on the second electrical coupling device being separated from the first electrical coupling member, the filtering device is separated from the first main body, and the filtering device is in the second position.
[0029] In this technical solution, the filtering device can be detachably disposed on the first main body. Based on the filtering device being detachably disposed in the accommodating space, a first electrical coupling member and a second electrical coupling member are further provided in the food processor, wherein the first electrical coupling member is disposed on the first main body, and the second electrical coupling member is disposed on the filtering device. The filtering device can be connected to and separated from the first main body through the cooperation between the first electrical coupling member and the second electrical coupling member.
[0030] Specifically, the first electrical coupling device and the second electrical coupling device cooperate with each other and can be connected to each other when powered on. Since the first electrical coupling device is provided on the first main body and the second electrical coupling device is provided on the filtering device, the connection between the first main body and the second main body is realized when the first electrical coupling device and the second electrical coupling device are in the powered-on state. When the filtering device is connected to the first main body, the filtering device is in the first position and is located in the accommodation space on the first main body. At this time, the first liquid inlet and the first liquid outlet of the filtering device are connected, and the filtering device can filter the food ingredients.
[0031] Further, the first electrical coupling device and the second electrical coupling device can also be separated from each other under the action of an external force or when the first electrical coupling device and the second electrical coupling device are powered off, so that the filtering device is separated from the first main body. When the filtering device is separated from the first main body, the filtering device is in the second position and is separated from the accommodation space on the first main body. At this time, the first liquid inlet and the first liquid outlet of the filtering device are separated, and the filtering device is in a non-working state. The user can take out the filtering device from the accommodation space on the first main body and clean the filtering device.
[0032] By providing the first electrical coupling member and the second electrical coupling member in the food processor, the filtering device and the first main body are connected and separated through the first electrical coupling member and the second electrical coupling member. Thus, the position switching of the filtering device between the first position and the second position is realized, and the filtering device is detachably arranged on the first main body, which is convenient for the user to take out the filtering device from the first main body for cleaning and improves the use convenience.
[0033] In the above technical solution, further, the filtering device includes: a second main body including a first through hole communicating with the outside; a filtering assembly detachably arranged on the second main body and capable of rotating relative to the second main body, the filtering assembly including a first liquid inlet capable of communicating with the first liquid outlet and a second liquid outlet, and the second liquid outlet communicates with the outside through the first through hole.
[0034] In this technical solution, the filtering device includes a second main body and a filtering assembly. There is a cavity in the main body, and the filtering assembly is detachably arranged in the cavity of the main body.
[0035] The filtering device is also provided with a first through hole, and the first through hole is arranged on the second main body. Specifically, the first through hole communicates with the cavity of the second main body. Among them, the filtering assembly is also provided with a first liquid outlet for discharging the liquid filtered by the filtering assembly. When the filtering assembly is placed in the cavity of the second main body, the first liquid outlet of the filtering assembly communicates with the first through hole, and then the first liquid outlet communicates with the outside through the first through hole, so as to discharge the filtered liquid from the filtering device.
[0036] Furthermore, the filtering device can rotate relative to the second body. Understandably, in a static state, the liquid in the filtering component drains out of the filter element by its own hydraulic pressure to achieve the separation of the liquid and impurities. However, simply through the hydraulic action, on the one hand, the liquid drainage speed is slow, and on the other hand, when the remaining liquid is less, the hydraulic pressure is small, and it is difficult to drain the liquid, resulting in some liquid being unable to be drained. When the filtering component rotates relative to the second body, the filtering component generates a centrifugal force. Under the action of the centrifugal force, the liquid in the filtering component is quickly thrown out of the filter element, thereby accelerating the drainage of the filtering component and speeding up the separation speed of the liquid and impurities, and reducing the residual amount of liquid in the filter element.
[0037] The filtering device further includes a bracket bottom cover. The bottom of the second body is provided with a first opening. The bracket bottom cover is connected to the second body at the first opening for covering the first opening. The bracket bottom cover is provided with a second through hole corresponding to the first through hole. The filtering device includes a plurality of first connectors for connecting the bracket bottom cover to the second body. The first connector can be a screw.
[0038] The filtering process of this filtering device is as follows: After the liquid containing impurities flows into the filtering device, the filtering component rotates relative to the second body. Under the action of the centrifugal force, the liquid in the filtering component is quickly separated from the impurities, and the filtered liquid is discharged from the filtering device through the first through hole in the filtering device.
[0039] By making the filtering component rotate relative to the second body, the rapidly rotating filtering component generates a centrifugal force. On the one hand, it speeds up the filtering speed of the liquid, and on the other hand, it causes the liquid to be discharged from the filter element under the action of the centrifugal force, reducing the residual amount of liquid in the filter element, improving the working efficiency of the filtering device, and improving the filtering effect.
[0040] In the above technical solution, further, the food processor further includes: a driving component, and the driving component can drive the filtering component to rotate relative to the second body.
[0041] In this technical solution, a driving component is also provided in the filtering device. The driving component is arranged on the second body. The driving component is connected to the filtering component to drive the filtering component to rotate relative to the second body. Specifically, the filtering component is placed in the cavity of the second body, and the filtering component and the second body can rotate relative to each other. Under the action of the driving component, the filtering component rotates relative to the second body with its own center as the rotation axis.
[0042] By providing a driving component in the food processor to drive the filtering component to rotate relative to the second body, the filtering component generates a centrifugal force during rotation. On the one hand, it speeds up the filtering speed of the liquid, and on the other hand, it causes the liquid to be discharged from the filter element under the action of the centrifugal force, reducing the residual amount of liquid in the filter element, improving the working efficiency of the filtering device, and improving the filtering effect.
[0043] In the above technical solution, further, the rotational speed at which the driving component drives the filtering component to rotate is greater than or equal to 50 rpm and less than or equal to 5000 rpm.
[0044] In this technical solution, the driving motor drives the filtering component to rotate at a certain rotational speed. It can be understood that certain noise will be generated during the rotation of the filtering component. The faster the rotational speed, the greater the noise. And the centrifugal force of the filtering component is also related to the rotational speed. The faster the rotational speed, the greater the centrifugal force and the higher the filtering effect. To balance the relationship between the filtering effect and the noise of the filtering component, the rotational speed of the filtering component is thus limited within the range of 50 rpm to 5000 rpm.
[0045] By limiting the rotational speed of the filtering component within the range of 50 rpm to 5000 rpm, it can not only ensure that the filtering component rotates at a certain rotational speed, so as to ensure that the centrifugal force of the filtering component meets the filtering requirements, but also ensure that the noise of the filtering device is within a reasonable range and will not affect the user.
[0046] In the above technical solution, further, the driving component includes: a driving motor disposed on the second main body; a first transmission member connected to the output shaft of the driving motor; the filtering device further includes: a second transmission member disposed on the filtering component, the second transmission member is adapted to the first transmission member, and the first transmission member drives the second transmission member to rotate under the drive of the driving motor, so that the filtering component rotates relative to the second main body.
[0047] In this technical solution, the driving component includes a driving motor and a first transmission member. A second transmission member is provided on the filtering component, and the second transmission member is adapted to the first transmission member. The driving component drives the first transmission member to rotate, and the first transmission member cooperates with the second transmission member, and then drives the second transmission member to rotate through the first transmission member, so as to realize the driving of the filtering component by the driving component, and the filtering component rotates relative to the second main body.
[0048] Specifically, the driving motor is disposed on the second main body. An output shaft is provided at the output end of the driving motor, and a limiting platform is provided on the side of the output shaft close to the driving motor. The driving component further includes a snap ring, and the snap ring is disposed on the side away from the driving motor relative to the limiting platform. The first transmission member is disposed on the output shaft, one end abuts against the limiting platform, and the other end is limited by the snap ring to prevent the first transmission member from falling off the output shaft, thereby realizing the connection between the first transmission member and the driving motor.
[0049] The second transmission member is disposed on the filtering component, and the filtering component is disposed in the cavity of the second main body, that is, the second transmission member is located in the cavity of the second main body. In order to enable the first transmission member to cooperate with the second transmission member, at least part of the first transmission member is thus extended into the cavity where the filtering component is located, so that the first transmission member can contact and cooperate with the second transmission member.
[0050] The driving process of the driving component on the filtering component is as follows: The driving motor runs and drives the output shaft to rotate. The first transmission member is connected to the output shaft. The driving motor transmits the driving torque to the first transmission member through the output shaft. The first transmission member is adapted to the second transmission member, and then transmits the driving torque to the second transmission member. The second transmission member rotates accordingly, and then drives the filtering component to rotate, realizing the driving of the filtering component by the driving component.
[0051] Furthermore, the driving motor can be set to different speeds. It can be understood that for different solid-liquid mixtures, the filtering difficulty is different, and the required centrifugal force is also different. Therefore, for different liquids to be filtered, the driving motor can be set to different speeds to improve the filtering effect.
[0052] By setting the first transmission member in the driving component and making the first transmission member cooperate with the second transmission member of the filtering component, the driving effect of the driving component on the filtering component is realized. This driving method is simple and reliable, occupies a small space, and has high working efficiency.
[0053] In the above technical solution, further, the first transmission member is a first transmission gear, the second transmission member is a second transmission gear, and the transmission ratio of the first transmission gear to the second transmission gear is greater than or equal to 1 / 10 and less than or equal to 1.
[0054] In this technical solution, both the first transmission member and the second transmission member are gears. Specifically, the first transmission member is a first transmission gear, and the second transmission member is a second transmission gear. Through the meshing of the first transmission gear and the second transmission gear, the transmission of the driving torque is realized. It can be understood that by adjusting the number of teeth of the meshing gears, the transmission ratio of the gears can be adjusted. In the present invention, the transmission ratio of the first transmission gear to the second transmission gear is greater than or equal to 1 / 10 and less than or equal to 1, that is, through the cooperation of the first transmission gear and the second transmission gear, the speed transmitted to the filtering component is increased relative to the speed of the driving motor itself. The magnitude of the centrifugal force is related to the speed, and the greater the speed, the greater the centrifugal force.
[0055] The transmission ratio of the first transmission gear to the second transmission gear is preferably 1 / 2.
[0056] By setting the first transmission member and the second transmission member as the first transmission gear and the second transmission gear, and controlling the transmission ratio of the first transmission gear to the second transmission gear to be greater than or equal to 1 / 10 and less than or equal to 1, the filtering component can obtain a larger speed when the speed of the driving motor is small, reducing the performance requirements for the driving motor. Moreover, when the filtering component operates at a larger speed, the centrifugal force increases and the filtering effect is improved.
[0057] In another technical solution, the first transmission member can be a transmission belt, at least part of the first transmission member is wound around the output shaft, the second transmission member can be a transmission wheel, and at least part of the first transmission member is wound around the second transmission member.
[0058] In this technical solution, the first transmission member is a transmission belt, and the second transmission member is a transmission wheel. The transmission belt is connected to the output shaft and the transmission wheel respectively. Specifically, at least part of the transmission belt is wound around the output shaft and at least part of the transmission belt is wound around the transmission wheel. It can be understood that the transmission belt is a closed loop belt. Among them, one end of the transmission belt is wound around the transmission wheel, and the other end is wound around the output shaft. The rotation of the output shaft drives the transmission belt to rotate, thereby realizing transmission.
[0059] By setting the first transmission member as a transmission belt and the second transmission member as a transmission wheel, the power output of the driving motor is realized, and the transmission belt has a simple and reliable structure and low cost.
[0060] In the above technical solution, further, the second main body includes: a first cavity for accommodating the filter assembly, and a first through hole communicating with the first cavity.
[0061] In this technical solution, the second main body includes a first cavity, and the filter assembly is arranged in the first cavity. Among them, the first through hole is communicated with the first cavity. When the filter assembly is placed in the first cavity, the first liquid discharge port of the filter assembly is arranged opposite to the first through hole, so that the first liquid discharge port is communicated with the external space of the filter device, and the filtered liquid is discharged from the filter device.
[0062] By providing the first cavity in the second main body, the filter assembly can be accommodated in the first cavity. When the filter assembly is in a rotating state, the wall of the first cavity plays a certain protective role for the filter assembly. By making the first through hole communicate with the first cavity, the first liquid discharge port of the filter assembly can communicate with the first through hole through the first cavity, and then the first liquid discharge port is connected to the external space of the filter device through the first through hole.
[0063] In the above technical solution, further, the filter assembly further includes: a plurality of positioning members located between the filter assembly and a part of the second main body forming the first cavity, and the plurality of positioning members are arranged on the filter assembly or the second main body.
[0064] In this technical solution, the filtering component further includes a plurality of positioning members, and the plurality of positioning members are located between the filtering component and a part of the second main body that forms the first cavity. It can be understood that the filtering component is placed in the first cavity, and there is a certain gap between the filtering component and the second main body that forms the first cavity. To prevent a large relative displacement between the filtering component and the second main body, a plurality of positioning members are provided between the filtering component and a part of the second main body that forms the first cavity to reduce the gap between the filtering component and the second main body, thereby reducing the relative displacement that can occur between the filtering component and the second main body and playing a positioning role for the filtering component.
[0065] Furthermore, the plurality of positioning members can be provided on the filtering component or on the second main body. Specifically, when the plurality of positioning members are provided on the filtering component, the plurality of positioning members can be circumferentially provided on the outer sidewall of the filtering component. When the plurality of positioning members are provided on the second main body, the plurality of positioning members can be circumferentially provided on the inner wall surface of the first cavity that is opposite to the filtering component.
[0066] By providing a plurality of positioning members between the filtering component and a part of the second main body that forms the first cavity, the gap between the filtering component and the second main body can be reduced, thereby reducing the relative displacement that can occur between the filtering component and the second main body and playing a positioning role for the filtering component, so that the filtering component is stably placed in the filtering device to ensure the normal operation of the filtering device.
[0067] In the above technical solution, further, the second main body further includes: a second cavity, a driving motor is disposed in the second cavity, an output shaft extends out of the second cavity, and a first transmission member is located outside the second cavity; an avoidance notch, corresponding to the first transmission member, communicating with the first cavity, and at least a part of the first transmission member extends into the first cavity through the avoidance notch.
[0068] In this technical solution, the second main body includes a second cavity, and a driving motor is disposed in the second cavity. An opening is provided at the bottom of the second cavity, and the second main body includes a motor cavity bottom cover, which is connected to the second main body at the opening at the bottom of the second cavity for covering the second cavity. The second main body is further provided with a plurality of second connecting members for connecting the second main body and the motor cavity bottom cover. The second connecting member can be a screw.
[0069] Specifically, a third through hole is provided on the motor cavity bottom cover, and the output shaft of the motor extends out of the second cavity through the third through hole and is connected to the first transmission member, and the first transmission member is disposed outside the second cavity. Specifically, the first transmission member is disposed between the bracket bottom cover and the bottom wall of the second cavity.
[0070] The second main body is further provided with an avoidance notch, the avoidance notch communicates with the second cavity, and the first transmission member extends into the second cavity through the avoidance notch and cooperates with the second transmission member.
[0071] The second main body further includes a second cover body, which is disposed at the open end of the second cavity away from the drive motor and is used to close the opening of the second cavity. Specifically, a positioning boss is provided in the second cavity, and one end of the second cover body abuts against the positioning boss to limit the second cover body. A positioning protrusion is provided on the side wall of the second cover body, and a positioning groove cooperating with the positioning protrusion is further provided on the inner wall of the second cavity. When the second cover body is placed in the second cavity, the positioning protrusion on the second cover body is inserted into the positioning groove of the second cavity to prevent the second cover body from rotating and limit the second cover body.
[0072] By providing a second cavity in the second main body and disposing the drive motor in the second cavity, a certain protective effect is achieved on the drive motor, reducing the influence of the external environment on the motor. And by providing a second cover body to close the opening of the second cavity, it prevents external impurities from entering the second cavity and damaging the drive motor, improving the protective effect on the drive motor.
[0073] In the above technical solution, further, the filtering device further includes: a rolling member rotatably disposed on the filtering assembly, and the rolling member is located between the filtering assembly and the second main body.
[0074] In this technical solution, the filtering device includes a rolling member rotatably disposed on the filtering assembly and located between the filtering assembly and the second main body. Specifically, the rolling member is disposed on the bottom wall of the filtering assembly, and the filtering assembly abuts against the second main body through the rolling member. The rolling member is rotatably disposed on the filtering assembly. When the filtering assembly rotates driven by the drive motor, the filtering assembly rolls along the second main body under the support of the rolling member, reducing the friction between the filtering assembly and the second main body.
[0075] By providing a rolling member between the filtering assembly and the second main body, on the one hand, it plays a supporting role for the filtering assembly, and on the other hand, when the filtering assembly is in a rotating state, since the rolling friction between the rolling member and the second main body is extremely small, the force on the filtering assembly is reduced, the frictional loss is lowered, and the working efficiency of the filtering device is improved. And because the friction between the filtering assembly and the second main body is reduced, the noise generated during the rotation of the filtering assembly is also reduced, playing a noise reduction role.
[0076] In the above technical solution, further, the filtering assembly further includes: a housing including a third cavity and a second liquid discharge port; a filtering member disposed in the third cavity, the filtering member being configured as a cavity structure with an opening, and a plurality of filtering holes are provided on the filtering member; a connecting assembly capable of detachably connecting the filtering member and the housing; wherein, a liquid discharge channel is formed between the filtering member and the housing, and the liquid discharge channel is communicated with the second liquid discharge port.
[0077] In this technical solution, the filtering component includes a housing, and a third cavity and a second liquid discharge port are further provided inside the housing. Among them, the second liquid discharge port is communicated with the third cavity and is provided on the bottom wall of the housing, that is, the liquid in the third cavity can flow out of the housing through the second liquid discharge port.
[0078] Further, the filtering component further includes a filter element. The filter element is a cavity-type structure with an opening, that is, the filter element includes a plurality of wall surfaces, and the plurality of wall surfaces enclose a receiving cavity, and an opening is provided on one side of the filter element, and the opening is communicated with the receiving cavity. A plurality of filter holes are also provided on the filter element. Specifically, the filter holes are provided on the wall surface of the filter element. It can be understood that when the liquid mixed with impurities flows into the filter element, the liquid can flow out of the filter element through the filter holes on the wall surface, while the impurities are blocked by the filter holes and remain in the receiving cavity of the filter element, thereby playing a filtering role. The filtering effect of the filter element is related to the density of the filter holes. The higher the density of the filter holes, the higher the filtering effect. However, too high a density of filter holes will cause difficulty in liquid discharge. To balance the filtering effect and the liquid discharge speed of the filter element, the density of the filter holes can be set within the range of 50 mesh to 120 mesh, preferably 80 mesh. The filter element is arranged in the third cavity, and the liquid filtered by the filter element flows into the third cavity and is discharged from the third cavity through the second liquid discharge port.
[0079] Further, a connecting component is also provided in the filtering component for connecting the filter element and the housing. Specifically, the filter element can be detachably connected to the housing through the connecting component. Among them, the connecting component can be a separate component independent of the filter element and the housing, or a component provided on the filter element and / or the housing.
[0080] Specifically, the connecting component can be a threaded connection structure, that is, a threaded connection structure is provided on the side walls of the housing and the filter element as the connecting component, and the housing and the filter element are connected or separated by the screwing of the threads. The connecting component can also be a snap connection structure. That is, a clamping groove is provided on one of the housing and the filter element, and a snap protrusion is provided on the other. The snap protrusion can be snapped into the clamping groove to connect the housing and the filter element, and the snap protrusion can also slide out of the clamping groove to separate the two. The connecting component can also be a separate component independent of the housing and the filter element. By connecting or separating the connecting component with the housing and the filter element respectively, the connection or separation of the housing and the filter element is realized. Further, a gap is left between the filter element located in the third cavity and the housing, so as to form a liquid discharge channel between the filter element and the housing. The liquid discharge channel is located in the third cavity and is communicated with the second liquid discharge port. The filtered liquid flows into the liquid discharge channel through the filter holes and then is discharged from the second liquid discharge port, thereby realizing the filtering and liquid discharge functions of the liquid.
[0081] The filtering process of the filtering component is as follows: The liquid containing impurities flows into the accommodating cavity of the filtering element. The filtering holes on the filtering element block the impurities in the liquid within the filtering element, while the liquid passes through the filtering holes and exits the filtering element. The filtered liquid then flows into the drain channel and is discharged from the filtering component through the second drain port, completing the filtering of the liquid by the filtering component. When the filtering component is disposed in the filtering device, the filtering component can rotate under the drive of the driving component. The rotating filtering component generates a centrifugal force, under the action of which the liquid in the filtering element quickly discharges from the filtering holes into the drain channel, accelerating the filtering process and improving the filtering effect.
[0082] By providing a connection component in the filtering component, the housing and the filtering element are detachably connected through the connection component, forming an integral whole, which facilitates the taking, placing, and cleaning of the entire filtering component and improves the convenience of use. By providing a filtering element in the filtering component, the impurities in the liquid can be separated from the liquid, thereby realizing the filtering function of the liquid. And by setting the filtering element as a cavity structure with an opening, the liquid can flow into the filtering element through the opening on the filtering element, thus realizing the filtering of the liquid. By forming a drain channel between the filtering element and the housing, it plays a guiding role in the liquid flowing out of the filtering element, guiding the flow direction of the liquid and concentrating it to be discharged at the second drain port, facilitating the collection of the liquid and enhancing the convenience of use of the filtering component.
[0083] In the above technical solution, further, the connection component includes: a face cover located at the opening of the filtering element, and a first inlet is provided on the face cover and communicates with the filtering cavity of the filtering element; a first mounting side cover, which can be connected to both the housing and the filtering element; wherein, the face cover is provided on the filtering element or the face cover is provided on the first mounting side cover.
[0084] In this technical solution, the connection component includes a face cover, which is provided at the opening of the filtering element. A first inlet communicating with the filtering cavity of the filtering element is further provided on the face cover. The first inlet is connected to the accommodating cavity of the filtering element, and the liquid outside the filtering component can flow into the filtering element through the first inlet to achieve the filtering of the liquid.
[0085] It can be understood that when the filtering component is filtering, the liquid flows into the drain channel between the filtering element and the housing. If the space between the filtering element and the housing is open on the side close to the opening of the filtering element, the liquid in the drain channel is likely to splash out of the filtering component. Therefore, a face cover is provided in the connection component and is set at the opening of the filtering element, thus playing a blocking role in the liquid in the drain channel and preventing the liquid from splashing out of the filtering component.
[0086] Further, the connection component further includes a first mounting side cover, which is respectively connected to the housing and the filtering element, thereby connecting the housing and the filtering element together through the first mounting side cover.
[0087] Among them, the face cover can be provided on the first mounting side cover or on the filter element. Specifically, the face cover can be connected to the first mounting side cover to form an integral structure, or can be connected to the filter element to form an integral structure.
[0088] By providing a face cover at the opening of the filter element, it can block the liquid in the liquid discharge channel and prevent the liquid from splashing out of the filter assembly. And a first mounting side cover is provided in the connection assembly, and the first mounting side cover is respectively connected to the housing and the filter element, so that the housing and the filter element are connected as a whole through the first mounting side cover, to realize the overall taking and placing and cleaning of the filter element and the housing, which is convenient for users to use.
[0089] In the above technical solution, further, the connection assembly further includes: a first mounting member provided on the first surface of the first mounting side cover, and the first mounting member can be connected to the housing; a second mounting member provided on the second surface of the first mounting side cover, and the second mounting member can be connected to the filter element.
[0090] In this technical solution, the first mounting side cover includes a first surface and a second surface, and the housing and the filter element can be respectively connected to different surfaces of the first mounting side cover, so as to connect the filter element and the housing as a whole through the first mounting side cover.
[0091] Among them, the connection assembly includes a first mounting member and a second mounting member. The first mounting member is provided on the first surface of the first mounting side cover, and the first mounting member can be connected to the housing, thereby connecting the housing to the first surface of the first mounting side cover. The second mounting member is provided on the second surface of the first mounting side cover, and the second mounting member can be connected to the filter element, thereby connecting the filter element to the second surface of the first mounting side cover.
[0092] The first surface and the second surface can face the same side or different sides.
[0093] When the first surface and the second surface face the same side, both the first surface and the second surface face the outside of the first mounting side cover, and the first surface and the second surface are distributed in a stepped shape, and the second surface is closer to the center of the first mounting side cover than the first surface.
[0094] When the first surface and the second surface face different sides, the first surface faces the outside of the first mounting side cover, and the second surface faces the inside of the first mounting side cover, so that the filter element after being connected to the first mounting side cover is located inside the housing.
[0095] Regardless of whether the first surface and the second surface face the same side, after the first mounting side cover is connected to the housing in place, there is a certain distance between the housing and the second surface. The space between the second surface and the housing can accommodate the filter element. After the filter element is connected to the first through the second mounting member, there is still a gap between the side wall of the filter element and the side wall of the housing, so as to facilitate the liquid to flow from the filter element into the first cavity. The gap between the side wall of the filter element and the side wall of the housing and the gap between the bottom wall of the filter element and the bottom wall of the housing together form a drainage channel.
[0096] Specifically, the connection process between the housing and the filter element is as follows: First, after the first mounting side cover is connected to the filter element through the second mounting member, the first mounting side cover drives the filter element to be inserted into the housing, and the first mounting side cover is connected to the housing through the first mounting member, thereby completing the connection process between the first mounting side cover, the filter element and the housing.
[0097] By respectively arranging the first mounting member and the second mounting member on the first surface and the second surface of the first mounting side cover, the first mounting side cover can be respectively connected to the filter element and the housing. Thus, the filter element and the housing are connected as a whole, which is convenient for taking and placing and cleaning, and improves the user experience. And because the first mounting member and the second mounting member are respectively arranged on different surfaces of the first mounting side cover, it can prevent the housing and the filter element from interfering during the connection process between the first mounting side cover, the housing and the filter element, and can ensure the smooth connection of the housing and the filter element.
[0098] In any of the above technical solutions, further, the filter assembly further includes: a third mounting member disposed on the housing, and the third mounting member can be detachably connected to the first mounting member; a fourth mounting member disposed on the filter element, and the fourth mounting member can be detachably connected to the second mounting member.
[0099] In this technical solution, a third mounting member and a fourth mounting member are provided in the filter assembly. The third mounting member is disposed on the housing, and the third mounting member is detachably connected to the first mounting member, thereby realizing the connection and separation between the housing and the first mounting side cover.
[0100] The fourth mounting member is disposed on the filter element, and the fourth mounting member is detachably connected to the second mounting member, thereby realizing the connection and separation between the filter element and the first mounting side cover.
[0101] By providing the third mounting member on the housing, the connection and separation between the first mounting side cover and the housing are realized. By providing the fourth mounting member on the filter element, the connection and separation between the first mounting side cover and the filter element are realized.
[0102] In any of the above technical solutions, further, the filter assembly further includes: a lifting member disposed on the housing, the filter element or the connection assembly.
[0103] In this technical solution, in order to facilitate the movement of the filtering component, a lifting member is provided in the filtering component. Among them, the lifting member can be arranged on the housing, the filtering member or the connecting component.
[0104] By providing a lifting member on the filtering component, it is convenient for the user to move the filtering component.
[0105] In any of the above technical solutions, further, the food processor further includes: a crushing cup, the crushing cup includes a crushing cavity and a first liquid discharge port; a valve assembly, arranged on the crushing cup, the valve assembly is communicated with the crushing cavity, and the valve assembly can block or conduct the flow path between the crushing cavity and the first liquid discharge port.
[0106] In this technical solution, the crushing device includes a crushing cup, the crushing cavity is arranged inside the crushing cup, and the crushing cup is used to hold the food ingredients to be processed. The crushing cup is also provided with a diversion pipe communicated with the crushing cavity, and the diversion pipe extends towards the first liquid inlet of the filtering device. The solid-liquid mixture completed in the crushing cavity flows out of the crushing cavity through the diversion pipe and flows into the filtering device through the first liquid inlet. The diversion pipe is arranged at the bottom of the crushing cup to facilitate the outflow of the solid-liquid mixture in the crushing cavity.
[0107] Further, the crushing device is provided with a valve assembly, and the valve assembly can be arranged on the crushing cup to conduct or block the crushing cup and the first liquid inlet. Specifically, when the food processor processes the food ingredients in the crushing cup, the valve assembly blocks the crushing cup and the first liquid inlet to prevent the unprocessed food ingredients from flowing out of the crushing cup. After the food ingredients in the crushing cup are completely crushed and the liquid is mixed, the valve assembly conducts the crushing cup and the first liquid inlet so that the processed food ingredients flow into the filtering device through the first liquid inlet for filtering.
[0108] By providing a valve assembly in the crushing device to conduct or block the crushing cavity and the first liquid inlet, it is possible to control whether the food ingredients flow out of the crushing cavity in different food processing stages, prevent the unprocessed food ingredients from flowing out, and enable the processed food ingredients to automatically flow into the filtering device without manual operation, improving the convenience of use.
[0109] In a second aspect of the present invention, a control method for a food processor is proposed. The food processor further includes a heating device for heating a crushing device, and a filtering assembly capable of receiving the food materials discharged from the crushing device. The control method includes: receiving a user's selection operation for the type of beverage, the selection operation being used to determine a target production program from multiple production programs, the multiple production programs at least including a first production program and a second production program, the first production program including: a heating stage, a filtering and discharging stage; the second production program including: a crushing stage and a filtering and discharging stage; running the target production program; wherein, the heating stage includes: controlling the heating device to heat the crushing device to a set temperature; the crushing stage includes: controlling the crushing device to perform a crushing operation; the filtering and discharging stage includes: discharging the food materials in the crushing device from the crushing device to the filtering assembly and then discharging them from the filtering assembly to a juice receiving cup.
[0110] The control method for the food processor provided by the present invention is applicable to a food processor that stores and can run multiple production programs. In the control method proposed by the present invention, first, a user's selection operation for the type of beverage is received to determine a corresponding target production program from multiple production programs, and then the above target production program is run to obtain a target beverage. Among them, the types of beverages include plant milk beverages, coffee beverages, fruit juice beverages, soy milk beverages, etc., and the user can select according to their own needs, which is not specifically limited here.
[0111] It can be understood that different production programs correspond to different types of beverages, and the selection operation can be used to determine a target production program corresponding to the type of beverage selected by the user from multiple production programs. Among them, the multiple production programs at least include a first production program and a second production program. Further, the first production program may include a heating stage and a filtering and discharging stage, and the second production program includes a crushing stage and a filtering and discharging stage, and may also include a heating stage. By performing different selection operations, the user enables the food processor to implement different production programs, thereby performing different treatments on the food materials to produce various types of beverages. That is, through the control method for the food processor proposed by the present invention, a single food processor can complete the production of multiple beverages, realizing the multi-beverage production function of the food processor, increasing the scope of use of the food processor, and improving the overall performance of the food processor.
[0112] Furthermore, the first production program includes a heating stage and a filtering and discharging stage. The heating stage is to control the heating device to heat the crushing device until the crushing device reaches the set temperature. The filtering and discharging stage is to discharge the food in the crushing device from the crushing device into the filtering component, and then discharge the food from the filtering component into the pulp receiving cup. That is to say, when the food processor runs the first production program to make beverages, the food in the food processor will be heated to the set temperature, filtered and discharged in sequence. At this time, the food for making the beverage can be placed in the filtering component, and the food can be water-soluble food, such as coffee powder, soy milk powder, milk powder and other powdered food.
[0113] Furthermore, the second production process includes a crushing stage and a filtering and draining stage. The crushing stage involves controlling the crushing device to crush the ingredients placed therein. In this case, the ingredients used to make the beverage can be solid ingredients such as fruits and vegetables that require crushing. Specifically, the second production process can also include a heating stage. That is, when the food processor runs the second production process to make a beverage, the heating device can heat the food to a set temperature, crush it, filter it, and drain it. The beverage produced can be a beverage that requires heating and crushing, such as soy milk.
[0114] It's worth noting that when the ingredients are discharged from the pulverizing device to the filtering assembly, the filtering assembly automatically filters or dissolves the ingredients. This makes the drinks more delicate and uniform, ensuring a pleasant taste for the user. Furthermore, the automatic filtering of the ingredients by the filtering assembly eliminates the need for users to manually filter the drinks with other tools, reducing the number of steps required, improving the efficiency of drink preparation, and enhancing the universal applicability of the food processor.
[0115] Therefore, through the control method of the food processor proposed in the present invention, by controlling the filtration accuracy of the filtration and pulping stage, and combining it with the heating stage and / or the crushing stage, a single food processor can realize the function of making multiple drinks, thereby improving the applicability of the food processor, and realizing automatic filtration of drinks, reducing the user's operating steps, and improving the drink making efficiency, thereby improving the overall performance of the food processor.
[0116] In addition, the control method of the food processor in the above technical solution provided by the present invention may also have the following additional technical features:
[0117] In the above technical solution, further, the filtering and pulping stage includes: controlling the driving component to standby to perform a first precision filtration on the food in the filtering component.
[0118] In this technical solution, the filtration and deslurrying phase specifically involves controlling the drive assembly to a standby mode, meaning that the drive assembly does not drive the filter assembly to rotate. This allows the food to enter the filter assembly and undergo only a first-level precision filtration of impurities and fibers. This first-level precision filtration is a preliminary filtration process, and some impurities and fibers may still be present in the filtered food. This means that the resulting beverage is a high-fiber beverage. For users who prefer this type of beverage, selecting the standby mode allows them to prepare the beverage, meeting their diverse needs.
[0119] In any of the above technical solutions, further, the filtering and pulping stage includes: controlling the driving component to operate to drive the filtering component to rotate, so as to perform a second precision filtration on the food in the filtering component.
[0120] In this technical solution, the filtration and pulping stage may also include controlling the operation of the drive assembly to drive the filter assembly to rotate, thereby performing a second precision filtration on the ingredients in the filter assembly. The second precision filtration is a depth filtration. Compared with the first precision filtration, the drinks produced by the second precision filtration are more uniform and delicate. Specifically, after the ingredients enter the filter assembly, they are not only initially filtered by the filter mesh in the filter assembly, but can also be rotated by the drive assembly to perform a depth filtration on the ingredients. Specifically, when the drive assembly is running, the drive assembly can drive the filter assembly to rotate slowly. When the filter assembly rotates, a certain centrifugal force is generated. The centrifugal force can realize automatic centrifugal filtration of the beverage, thereby achieving a depth filtration of the beverage on the basis of the initial filtration of the filter mesh. In this way, the user can obtain a highly uniform and delicate beverage without performing additional manual filtration operations. While ensuring the user's taste, it can also reduce the user's operating steps, improve the efficiency of beverage production, meet user needs, and improve the overall performance of the food processor.
[0121] In any of the above technical solutions, further, based on the target production program being the first production program, running the target production program includes: controlling the heating device to heat for a first preset time, and then controlling the crushing device to discharge slurry into the filter component; controlling the driving component to operate at a first preset moment to drive the filter component to rotate; wherein the first preset moment is within the first preset time, or the first preset moment is after the first preset time.
[0122] In this technical solution, when the target production program is the first production program, the target production program specifically includes: after controlling the heating device to heat for a first preset duration, controlling the crushing device to discharge slurry into the filtering component. At this time, the food processor can, according to the selection operation made according to the type and taste of the beverage selected by the user, only heat the ingredients in the crushing device without crushing them, that is, the hot water discharged into the filtering component at this time. At this time, an appropriate amount of powdery ingredients such as coffee powder, milk powder, and soy milk powder can be placed in the filtering component. When the driving component drives the filtering component to rotate, when the filtering component rotates slowly, the above-mentioned powdery ingredients can be more fully brewed.
[0123] It can be understood that compared with the beverage brewed directly with hot water, in the embodiment of the present invention, the powdery ingredients in the filtering component can be rotated and filtered at the same time, and the powdery ingredients remaining in the filtering component gradually decrease with the rotation of the filtering component and the injection of hot water until they are completely brewed. In this way, the above-mentioned powdery ingredients can be more fully brewed, so that a richer and more delicious taste can be obtained.
[0124] In this technical solution, further, when the target production program is the first production program, the target production program further includes: controlling the driving component to operate at a first preset moment, so as to drive the filtering component to rotate. Among them, the first preset moment can be within the first preset duration, that is, before the crushing device discharges slurry, when the ingredients are still being heated, the driving component is operated to make it in a rotating state, and then drive the rotation of the filtering component. In this way, when the hot water in the crushing device is discharged into the filtering component, it can be ensured that it is fully dissolved with the powdery ingredients in the filtering component, ensuring the uniformity and fineness of the beverage and improving the edible taste of the beverage.
[0125] Further, in this technical solution, the first preset moment can also be after a third preset duration, that is, the driving component is operated to drive the filtering component to rotate after the heating is completed. In this way, when there is no hot water entering the filtering component, the filtering component will not rotate, avoiding the waste of electric power resources and reducing the energy consumption of the food processor.
[0126] In any of the above technical solutions, further, before controlling the driving component to operate at a first preset moment to drive the filtering component to rotate, the control method further includes: determining that the mass of the filtering component is greater than a preset threshold.
[0127] In this technical solution, before controlling the driving component to operate at the first preset moment to drive the filtering component to rotate, the control method further includes: determining that the mass of the filtering component is greater than a preset threshold. The preset threshold can be equal to the mass of the filtering component when it is idle, and the preset threshold can also be slightly greater than the mass of the filtering component when it is idle. In this way, when the mass of the filtering component is greater than the preset threshold, it means that the filtering component contains contents. At this time, the driving component is controlled to operate to drive the filtering component to rotate; when the mass of the filtering component is not greater than the preset threshold, it means that the filtering component does not contain contents. At this time, there is no need to control the driving component to operate. At this time, the user may only need to drink hot water without contents. In this way, the waste of electric power resources is avoided, the energy consumption of the food processor is reduced, and the performance of the food processor is improved.
[0128] In any of the above technical solutions, further, based on the target production program being the second production program, the second production program further includes a heating stage. Running the target production program includes: controlling the heating device to heat for a second preset duration; controlling the crushing device to perform a crushing operation, and after a third preset duration, controlling the crushing device to discharge the slurry into the filtering component; controlling the driving component to operate at the first preset moment to drive the filtering component to rotate; where the first preset moment is within the third preset duration or after the third preset duration.
[0129] In this technical solution, when the target production program is the first production program, the target production program specifically includes: controlling the heating device to heat for a second preset duration, and controlling the crushing device to crush the ingredients therein. After a third preset duration, controlling the crushing device to discharge the slurry into the filtering component.
[0130] It can be understood that the second preset duration and the third preset duration may have an overlapping relationship on the time axis. Specifically, the crushing device and the heating device can be controlled to heat and crush the ingredients in the crushing device simultaneously. More specifically, after the heating device heats the ingredients for a period of time, the crushing device can be used to crush the ingredients. The preheated ingredients are easier to crush, improving the production efficiency of the beverage.
[0131] Further, in this technical solution, the first preset moment can be within the third preset duration, that is, before the crushing device discharges the slurry, when the ingredients are still being crushed, the driving component is operated to make it in a rotating state, thereby driving the rotation of the filtering component. In this way, when the produced beverage is discharged from the crushing device to the filtering component, an automatic centrifugal filtration operation can be performed in a timely manner, ensuring that all the beverages entering the filtering component can be filtered in a timely manner, ensuring the uniformity and fineness of the beverage, and improving the edible taste of the beverage.
[0132] Further, in this technical solution, the first preset moment may be after the third preset duration, that is, after the crushing is completed, the driving component is operated to drive the filtering component to rotate. In this way, when no drink enters the filtering component, the filtering component will not perform the filtering operation, avoiding the waste of electric power resources and reducing the energy consumption of the food processor.
[0133] In any of the above technical solutions, further, the food processor includes a detection device for detecting whether the filtering component is in the working position, and the control method further includes: based on the detection result of the detection device that the filtering component is not in the working position, giving up responding to execute the target production program.
[0134] In this technical solution, the control method of the food processor further includes: based on the detection result of the detection device that the filtering component is not in the working position, controlling the food processor to give up responding to execute the target production program. Normally, the filtering component is located below the crushing device to receive the liquid discharged from the crushing device. When the detection device detects that the filtering component is not in the working position, the food processor is controlled to give up responding to execute the target production program. Since the food processor can store the residue in the drink, when the filtering component is not in the working position, it may cause too much residue in the drink to affect the taste and result in poor user experience, or it is easy to cause internal pollution of the food processor. Thus, when the filtering component is not placed in the working position, the food processor does not perform the production operation, improving the overall performance of the food processor and the user's usage feeling.
[0135] A third aspect of the present invention provides a control device for a food processor. The food processor further includes a heating device for heating the crushing device, and the filtering component can receive the ingredients discharged from the crushing device. The control device includes: a receiving unit for receiving the user's selection operation of the drink type, and the selection operation is used to determine the target production program from multiple production programs. The multiple production programs at least include a first production program and a second production program. The first production program includes: a heating stage and a filtering and discharging stage. The second production program includes: a crushing stage and a filtering and discharging stage; a processing unit for running the target production program; wherein, the heating stage includes: controlling the heating device to heat the crushing device to a set temperature; the crushing stage includes: controlling the crushing device to perform a crushing operation; the filtering and discharging stage includes: discharging the ingredients in the crushing device from the crushing device to the filtering component and then discharging them from the filtering component to the juice cup.
[0136] A fourth aspect of the present invention provides a food processor, including a memory and a controller. The memory is configured to store programs or instructions; the controller is configured to execute the stored programs or instructions to implement the steps of the control method of the food processor in any of the above third aspect technical solutions, and thus has all the beneficial effects of the control method of the food processor, which will not be elaborated here.
[0137] The fifth aspect of the present invention provides a readable storage medium, on which a program or instructions are stored. When the program or instructions are executed by a processor, the steps of the control method of the food processor in any of the technical solutions of the third aspect described above are implemented, and thus all the beneficial effects of the control method of the food processor are achieved, which will not be elaborated here.

Detailed implementation manners
[0173] In order to be able to more clearly understand the above objects, features and advantages of the present invention, the present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific implementation manners. It should be noted that, without conflict, the embodiments of the present application and the features in the embodiments can be combined with each other.
[0174] In the following description, many specific details are set forth in order to fully understand the present invention. However, the present invention can also be implemented in other ways different from those described herein. Therefore, the protection scope of the present invention is not limited by the specific embodiments disclosed below.
[0175] The following refers to Figures 1 to 31A food processor 300 provided according to some embodiments of the present invention, as well as a control method and device for the food processor are described.
[0176] Embodiment 1:
[0177] As Figure 24 、 Figure 25 and Figure 26 shown, an embodiment of the first aspect of the present invention provides a food processor 300, including: a first main body 310; a crushing device 320 disposed within the first main body 310, the crushing device 320 having a crushing chamber 326, the crushing device 320 including a first liquid discharge port 112 communicating with the crushing chamber 326; a filtering device 200 capable of moving relative to the first main body 310, the filtering device 200 having a first liquid inlet 131; wherein, when the filtering device 200 is in a first position, the first liquid inlet 131 communicates with the first liquid discharge port 112, and when the filtering device 200 is in a second position, the first liquid inlet 131 is separated from the first liquid discharge port 112.
[0178] The food processor 300 proposed by the present invention includes a first main body 310, a crushing device 320, and a filtering device 200. Among them, the crushing device 320 is disposed within the first main body 310 and is used to crush food ingredients to make them into tiny granular solids. The crushing device 320 has a crushing chamber 326. After the food ingredients are placed in the crushing chamber 326, the crushing device 320 processes the food ingredients in the crushing chamber 326 to crush them.
[0179] Further, the filtering device 200 is disposed within the first main body 310 and is used to filter the solid-liquid mixture in the crushing chamber 326. The crushing chamber 326 communicates with the first liquid inlet 131 of the filtering device 200. Specifically, the crushing chamber 326 is provided with a second liquid discharge port for discharging the solid-liquid mixture in the crushing chamber 326, and the second liquid discharge port of the crushing chamber 326 communicates with the first liquid inlet 131 of the filtering device 200, so that the solid-liquid mixture that has completed the crushing process in the crushing chamber 326 flows into the filtering device 200 and is filtered by the filtering device 200.
[0180] Further, the filtering device 200 is movably disposed in the food processor 300 and can be adjusted to a reasonable position according to needs. Specifically, when the filtering device 200 is in a first position, the first liquid inlet 131 communicates with the first liquid discharge port 112; when the filtering device 200 is in a second position, the first liquid inlet 131 is separated from the first liquid discharge port 112.
[0181] Wherein, when the filtering device 200 is in the first position, the first liquid inlet 131 is communicated with the first liquid discharge port 112. At this time, the filtering device 200 can be in a working state. The food material to be filtered is fed into the filtering device 200 through the first liquid inlet 131. After the filtering device 200 completes the filtering, the filtered food material is discharged through the first liquid discharge port 112.
[0182] When the filtering device 200 is in the second position, the first liquid inlet 131 is separated from the first liquid discharge port 112. At this time, the filtering device 200 is in a non-working state. The filtering device 200 is far away from the first main body 310 of the food processor 300, which facilitates the cleaning of the filtering device 200.
[0183] By arranging the crushing device 320 and the filtering device 200 in the food processor 300, one-stop processing of crushing and filtering of food materials is realized. Without separately filtering the processed liquid containing impurities again, a liquid without impurities or with a very low impurity content can be obtained. The operation is simple and the use is convenient, improving the user experience. By making the filtering device 200 located at the first position and the second position, when the filtering device 200 is not working, it is far away from the first main body 310 of the food processor 300, which is convenient for the user to clean the filtering device 200 and improves the user experience.
[0184] Embodiment 2:
[0185] As Figure 27 、 Figure 28 And Figure 29 shown, on the basis of Embodiment 1, Embodiment 2 provides a food processor 300, wherein a receiving space is provided on the first main body 310, and the filtering device 200 is detachably arranged in the receiving space or the filtering device 200 is movably arranged in the receiving space.
[0186] In this technical solution, the filtering device 200 can be located at the first position where the first liquid inlet 131 and the first liquid discharge port 112 are communicated. At this time, the filtering device 200 can be in a working state. In order to ensure the stability of the filtering device 200 in the working state, a receiving space is provided on the first main body 310. When the filtering device 200 is located at the first position, the filtering device 200 is in the receiving groove or the receiving space, so that the filtering device 200 can be stable in the working state to ensure the normal operation of the filtering device 200.
[0187] Specifically, the first body 310 is provided with a receiving groove, and the filter device 200 is detachable from the first body 310. When the filter device 200 is in the first position, the filter device 200 is located in the receiving groove. When the filter device 200 is in the second position, the filter device 200 is separated from the first body 310, so that the filter device 200 can be removed from the receiving groove.
[0188] In another technical solution, a receiving space is provided on the first body 310, and the filter device 200 is connected to the first body 310, allowing the filter device 200 to move relative to the first body 310. When the filter device 200 is in a first position, the filter device 200 is close to the first body 310 and located in the receiving space. When the filter device 200 is in a second position, the filter device 200 is away from the receiving space on the first body 310.
[0189] By providing a receiving space on the first body 310, the filter device 200 is placed in the receiving space when in operation, providing a certain degree of protection for the filter device 200, keeping the filter device 200 stable in operation and ensuring the normal operation of the filter device 200. When the filter device 200 is in the second position, the filter device 200 is separated from the receiving space, making it easier for the user to clean the filter device 200 and improving its usability.
[0190] Example 3:
[0191] Based on any of the above embodiments, embodiment 3 provides a food processor 300, based on which the filter device 200 can be movably arranged in the accommodating space, the food processor 300 includes: a movable connecting member, which is arranged on the filter device 200, and the filter device 200 switches between the first position and the second position through the movable connecting member.
[0192] In this technical solution, the filter device 200 can be movably connected to the first body 310. Since the filter device 200 is movably arranged in the storage space, the food processor 300 includes a movable connection member for connecting the filter device 200 to the first body 310. The movable connection member is provided on the filter device 200, and the filter device 200 switches between a first position and a second position via the movable connection member. Specifically, the filter device 200 is connected to the first body 310 via the movable connection member, and the other end is in a free state. The filter device 200 always remains connected to the first body 310 via the movable connection member, but at the same time, the filter device 200 can move around the movable connection member between the first position and the second position, thereby entering the storage space and detaching from the storage space.
[0193] By providing a movable connector in the food processor 300, the filtering device 200 is connected to the first main body 310 through the movable connector, so that the filtering device 200 can be connected to the first main body 310 and can be switched back and forth between a first position and a second position.
[0194] In the above technical solution, further, the movable connector includes: a mounting through-hole provided on one of the filtering device 200 or the first main body 310; a rotating shaft provided on the other of the filtering device 200 or the first main body 310, and the rotating shaft can rotate within the mounting through-hole.
[0195] In this technical solution, the movable connector includes a mounting through-hole and a rotating shaft. Among them, the mounting through-hole is provided on the filtering device 200 or the first main body 310, and the rotating shaft is disposed within the mounting through-hole. The rotating shaft can be disposed on the first main body 310 or on the filtering device 200, and the filtering device 200 is connected to the first main body 310 through the rotating shaft. The rotating shaft can rotate within the mounting through-hole, so that the filtering device 200 can rotate relative to the first main body 310 around the rotating shaft, realizing the position switching of the filtering device 200 between the first position and the second position.
[0196] By providing a rotating shaft in the movable connector, the filtering device 200 rotates relative to the first main body 310 around the rotating shaft. The filtering device 200 and the first main body 310 are movably connected in a rotating manner, enabling the operator to rotate the filtering device 200 to the first position when the filtering device 200 is working, and rotate the filtering device 200 to the second position when the filtering device 200 needs to be cleaned, and adjust the position of the filtering device 200 as needed, improving the operation convenience.
[0197] Embodiment 4:
[0198] Based on Embodiment 1 or 2, Embodiment 4 provides a food processor 300. Since the filtering device 200 is detachably disposed in the accommodation space, the food processor 300 further includes: a first electrical coupling member disposed on the first main body 310; a second electrical coupling member disposed on the filtering device 200; wherein, based on the second electrical coupling device being electrically connected to the first electrical coupling member, the filtering device 200 is connected to the first main body 310, and the filtering device 200 is in the first position; based on the second electrical coupling device being separated from the first electrical coupling member, the filtering device 200 is separated from the first main body 310, and the filtering device 200 is in the second position.
[0199] In this technical solution, the filtering device 200 can be detachably arranged on the first main body 310. Based on the fact that the filtering device 200 is detachably arranged in the accommodation space, the food processor 300 is also provided with a first electrical coupling member and a second electrical coupling member. Among them, the first electrical coupling member is arranged on the first main body 310, and the second electrical coupling member is arranged on the filtering device 200. The filtering device 200 can be connected to and separated from the first main body 310 through the cooperation between the first electrical coupling member and the second electrical coupling member.
[0200] Specifically, the first electrical coupling device and the second electrical coupling device cooperate with each other and can be connected to each other in the powered-on state. Since the first electrical coupling device is arranged on the first main body 310 and the second electrical coupling device is arranged on the filtering device 200, the connection between the first main body 310 and the second main body 210 in the powered-on state of the first electrical coupling device and the second electrical coupling device is realized. When the filtering device 200 is connected to the first main body 310, the filtering device 200 is in the first position and is located in the accommodation space on the first main body 310. At this time, the first liquid inlet 131 and the first liquid discharge port 112 of the filtering device 200 are communicated, and the filtering device 200 can filter the food materials.
[0201] Furthermore, the first electrical coupling device and the second electrical coupling device can also be separated from each other under the action of an external force or in the state where the first electrical coupling device and the second electrical coupling device are powered off, so that the filtering device 200 is separated from the first main body 310. When the filtering device 200 is separated from the first main body 310, the filtering device 200 is in the second position and is separated from the accommodation space on the first main body 310. At this time, the first liquid inlet 131 and the first liquid discharge port 112 of the filtering device 200 are separated, and the filtering device 200 is in a non-working state. The user can take out the filtering device 200 from the accommodation space on the first main body 310 and clean the filtering device 200.
[0202] By arranging the first electrical coupling member and the second electrical coupling member in the food processor 300, the filtering device 200 and the first main body 310 are connected and separated through the first electrical coupling member and the second electrical coupling member. Thus, the position switching of the filtering device 200 between the first position and the second position is realized, and the filtering device 200 is detachably arranged on the first main body 310, which is convenient for the user to take out the filtering device 200 from the first main body 310 for cleaning and improves the use convenience.
[0203] Embodiment 5:
[0204] Such as Figure 9 、 Figure 10 、 Figure 11 and Figure 12As shown, on the basis of any of the above embodiments, Embodiment 5 provides a food processor 300. The filtering device 200 includes: a second main body 210, including a first through hole 212 communicating with the outside; a filtering assembly 100, which is detachably disposed on the second main body 210 and can rotate relative to the second main body 210. The filtering assembly 100 includes a first liquid inlet 131 capable of communicating with the first liquid discharge port 112 and a second liquid discharge port, and the second liquid discharge port communicates with the outside through the first through hole 212.
[0205] In this technical solution, the filtering device 200 includes a second main body 210 and a filtering assembly 100. A cavity is provided in the main body 310, and the filtering assembly 100 is detachably disposed in the cavity of the main body 310.
[0206] The filtering device 200 is further provided with a first through hole 212, and the first through hole 212 is provided in the second main body 210. Specifically, the first through hole 212 communicates with the cavity of the second main body 210. Among them, the filtering assembly 100 is further provided with a first liquid discharge port 112, and the first liquid discharge port 112 is used to discharge the liquid filtered by the filtering assembly 100. When the filtering assembly 100 is placed in the cavity of the second main body 210, the first liquid discharge port 112 of the filtering assembly 100 communicates with the first through hole 212, and then the first liquid discharge port 112 communicates with the outside through the first through hole 212, so as to discharge the filtered liquid from the filtering device 200.
[0207] Furthermore, the filtering device 200 can rotate relative to the second main body 210. It can be understood that in the static state, the liquid in the filtering assembly 100 is discharged from the filter element 120 by its own hydraulic pressure to realize the separation of the liquid and impurities. However, simply through the hydraulic action, on the one hand, the liquid discharge speed is slow, and on the other hand, when the remaining liquid is less, the hydraulic pressure is small, and it is difficult to discharge the liquid, resulting in some liquid being unable to be discharged. When the filtering assembly 100 rotates relative to the second main body 210, the filtering assembly 100 generates a centrifugal force. Under the action of the centrifugal force, the liquid in the filtering assembly 100 is quickly thrown out of the filter element 120, and then the discharge of the filtering assembly 100 is accelerated, the speed of liquid and impurity separation is increased, and the residual amount of liquid in the filter element 120 is reduced.
[0208] As Figure 22 shown, the filtering device 200 further includes a bracket bottom cover 215. The bottom of the second main body 210 is provided with a first opening, and the bracket bottom cover 215 is connected to the second main body 210 at the first opening for covering the first opening. The bracket bottom cover 215 is provided with a second through hole 216 corresponding to the first through hole 212. As Figure 21 and Figure 23As shown, the filtering device 200 includes a plurality of first connectors 260 for connecting the bracket bottom cover 215 to the second main body 210. The first connectors 260 can be screws.
[0209] The filtering process of the filtering device 200 is as follows: After the liquid containing impurities flows into the filtering device 200, the filtering component 100 rotates relative to the second main body 210. Under the action of centrifugal force, the liquid in the filtering component 100 is quickly separated from the impurities, and the filtered liquid is discharged from the filtering device 200 through the first through hole 212 in the filtering device 200.
[0210] By rotating the filtering component 100 relative to the second main body 210, the rapidly rotating filtering component 100 generates centrifugal force, which on the one hand speeds up the liquid filtering speed, and on the other hand causes the liquid to be discharged from the filtering element 120 under the action of centrifugal force, reducing the residual liquid amount in the filtering element 120, improving the working efficiency of the filtering device 200, and improving the filtering effect.
[0211] Embodiment 6:
[0212] As Figure 11 、 Figure 13 shown, on the basis of any of the above embodiments, Embodiment 6 provides a food processor 300, further including: a driving component 220, and the driving component 220 can drive the filtering component 100 to rotate relative to the second main body 210.
[0213] In this embodiment, a driving component 220 is further provided in the filtering device 200, and the driving component 220 is provided on the second main body 210. The driving component 220 is connected to the filtering component 100 to drive the filtering component 100 to rotate relative to the second main body 210. Specifically, the filtering component 100 is placed in the cavity of the second main body 210, and the filtering component 100 and the second main body 210 can rotate relative to each other. Under the action of the driving component 220, the filtering component 100 rotates relative to the second main body 210 with its own center as the rotation axis.
[0214] By providing the driving component 220 in the food processor 300 to drive the filtering component 100 to rotate relative to the second main body 210, the filtering component 100 generates centrifugal force during rotation, which on the one hand speeds up the liquid filtering speed, and on the other hand causes the liquid to be discharged from the filtering element 120 under the action of centrifugal force, reducing the residual liquid amount in the filtering element 120, improving the working efficiency of the filtering device 200, and improving the filtering effect.
[0215] Furthermore, the rotation speed at which the driving component 220 drives the filtering component 100 to rotate is greater than or equal to 50 rpm and less than or equal to 5000 rpm.
[0216] In this embodiment, the driving motor 221 drives the filtering component 100 to rotate at a certain speed. It can be understood that the filtering component 100 will generate a certain amount of noise during rotation, and the faster the rotation speed, the greater the noise. The centrifugal force of the filtering component 100 is also related to the rotation speed. The faster the rotation speed, the greater the centrifugal force and the higher the filtering effect. To balance the relationship between the filtering effect and the noise of the filtering component 100, the rotation speed of the filtering component 100 is thus limited within the range of 50 rpm to 5000 rpm.
[0217] By limiting the rotation speed of the filtering component 100 within the range of 50 rpm to 5000 rpm, it can not only ensure that the filtering component 100 rotates at a certain speed, thereby ensuring that the centrifugal force of the filtering component 100 meets the filtering requirements, but also ensure that the noise of the filtering device 200 is within a reasonable range and will not affect the user.
[0218] As Figure 11 、 Figure 13 、 Figure 14 、 Figure 18 and Figure 19 shown, further, the driving component 220 includes: a driving motor 221 disposed on the second main body 210; a first transmission member 222 connected to the output shaft of the driving motor 221; the filtering device 200 further includes: a second transmission member 223 disposed on the filtering component 100, the second transmission member 223 is adapted to the first transmission member 222, and the first transmission member 222 drives the second transmission member 223 to rotate under the drive of the driving motor 221, so that the filtering component 100 rotates relative to the second main body 210.
[0219] In this embodiment, the driving component 220 includes a driving motor 221 and a first transmission member 222. The second transmission member 223 is provided on the filtering component 100. The second transmission member 223 is adapted to the first transmission member 222. The driving component 220 drives the first transmission member 222 to rotate, and the first transmission member 222 cooperates with the second transmission member 223 to drive the second transmission member 223 to rotate through the first transmission member 222, so as to realize the driving of the filtering component 100 by the driving component 220, and the filtering component 100 rotates relative to the second main body 210.
[0220] As Figure 20 shown, specifically, the driving motor 221 is disposed on the second main body 210. An output shaft is provided at the output end of the driving motor 221, and a limiting platform is provided on one side of the output shaft close to the driving motor 221. The driving component 220 further includes a snap ring 224, and the snap ring 224 is disposed on the side of the limiting platform away from the driving motor 221. The first transmission member 222 is disposed on the output shaft, one end abuts against the limiting platform, and the other end limits the first transmission member 222 through the snap ring 224 to prevent the first transmission member 222 from falling off the output shaft, thereby realizing the connection between the first transmission member 222 and the driving motor 221.
[0221] The second transmission member 223 is disposed on the filter assembly 100, and the filter assembly 100 is disposed in the cavity of the second main body 210, that is, the second transmission member 223 is located in the cavity of the second main body 210. In order to enable the first transmission member 222 to cooperate with the second transmission member 223, at least a part of the first transmission member 222 is extended into the cavity where the filter assembly 100 is located, so that the first transmission member 222 can contact and cooperate with the second transmission member 223.
[0222] The driving process of the driving assembly 220 on the filter assembly 100 is as follows: The driving motor 221 operates and drives the output shaft to rotate. The first transmission member 222 is connected to the output shaft. The driving motor 221 transmits the driving torque to the first transmission member 222 through the output shaft. The first transmission member 222 is adapted to the second transmission member 223, and then transmits the driving torque to the second transmission member 223. The second transmission member 223 rotates accordingly, and then drives the filter assembly 100 to rotate, realizing the driving of the filter assembly 100 by the driving assembly 220.
[0223] Furthermore, the driving motor 221 can be set to different speeds. It can be understood that different solid-liquid mixtures have different filtration difficulties and require different centrifugal force magnitudes. Therefore, corresponding to different liquids to be filtered, the driving motor 221 can be set to different speeds to improve the filtration effect.
[0224] By providing the first transmission member 222 in the driving assembly 220 and making the first transmission member 222 cooperate with the second transmission member 223 of the filter assembly 100, the driving effect of the driving assembly 220 on the filter assembly 100 is realized. This driving method is simple and reliable, occupies a small space, and has high working efficiency.
[0225] Embodiment 7:
[0226] As Figure 11 shown, based on any of the above embodiments, Embodiment 7 provides a food processor 300. The first transmission member 222 is a first transmission gear, and the second transmission member 223 is a second transmission gear. The transmission ratio of the first transmission gear to the second transmission gear is greater than or equal to 1 / 10 and less than or equal to 1.
[0227] In this embodiment, both the first transmission member 222 and the second transmission member 223 are gears. Specifically, the first transmission member 222 is a first transmission gear, and the second transmission member 223 is a second transmission gear. The transmission of the driving torque is achieved through the meshing of the first transmission gear and the second transmission gear. It can be understood that by adjusting the number of teeth of the meshing gears, the transmission ratio of the gears can be adjusted. In the present invention, the transmission ratio of the first transmission gear to the second transmission gear is greater than or equal to 1 / 10 and less than or equal to 1, that is, through the cooperation of the first transmission gear and the second transmission gear, the rotational speed transmitted to the filtration assembly 100 is increased relative to the rotational speed of the driving motor 221 itself. The magnitude of the centrifugal force is related to the rotational speed. The greater the rotational speed, the greater the centrifugal force.
[0228] The transmission ratio of the first transmission gear to the second transmission gear is preferably 1 / 2.
[0229] By setting the first transmission member 222 and the second transmission member 223 as the first transmission gear and the second transmission gear, and controlling the transmission ratio of the first transmission gear to the second transmission gear to be greater than or equal to 1 / 10 and less than or equal to 1, the filtration assembly 100 can obtain a relatively large rotational speed even when the rotational speed of the driving motor 221 is relatively small, reducing the performance requirements for the driving motor 221. Moreover, when the filtration assembly 100 operates at a relatively large rotational speed, the centrifugal force increases, and the filtration effect is improved.
[0230] Embodiment 8:
[0231] Based on Embodiments 1 to 6, Embodiment 8 provides a food processor 300. The first transmission member 222 can be a transmission belt, at least a part of the first transmission member 222 is wound around the output shaft, the second transmission member 223 can be a transmission wheel, and at least a part of the first transmission member 222 is wound around the second transmission member 223.
[0232] In this embodiment, the first transmission member 222 is a transmission belt, and the second transmission member 223 is a transmission wheel. The transmission belt is connected to the output shaft and the transmission wheel respectively. Specifically, at least a part of the transmission belt is wound around the output shaft and at least a part of the transmission belt is wound around the transmission wheel. It can be understood that the transmission belt is a closed loop belt. Among them, one end of the transmission belt is wound around the transmission wheel, and the other end is wound around the output shaft. The rotation of the output shaft drives the transmission belt to rotate, thereby achieving transmission.
[0233] By setting the first transmission member 222 as a transmission belt and the second transmission member 223 as a transmission wheel, the power output of the driving motor 221 is achieved, and the transmission belt has a simple and reliable structure and low cost.
[0234] Embodiment 9:
[0235] Such as Figure 10 、 Figure 12 、 Figure 13 andFigure 15 As shown, based on any of the above embodiments, Embodiment 9 provides a food processor 300. The second main body 210 includes: a first cavity 211 for accommodating the filtering assembly 100, and a first through hole 212 communicating with the first cavity 211.
[0236] In this embodiment, the second main body 210 includes a first cavity 211, and the filtering assembly 100 is disposed in the first cavity 211. Among them, the first through hole 212 is connected to the first cavity 211. When the filtering assembly 100 is placed in the first cavity 211, the first liquid discharge port 112 of the filtering assembly 100 is disposed opposite to the first through hole 212, so that the first liquid discharge port 112 communicates with the external space of the filtering device 200, and the filtered liquid is discharged from the filtering device 200.
[0237] By providing the first cavity 211 in the second main body 210, the filtering assembly 100 can be accommodated in the first cavity 211. When the filtering assembly 100 is in a rotating state, the wall of the first cavity 211 plays a certain protective role for the filtering assembly 100. By making the first through hole 212 communicate with the first cavity 211, the first liquid discharge port 112 of the filtering assembly 100 can communicate with the first through hole 212 through the first cavity 211, and then the first liquid discharge port 112 communicates with the external space of the filtering device 200 through the first through hole 212.
[0238] Embodiment 10:
[0239] As Figure 8 shown, based on any of the above embodiments, Embodiment 10 provides a food processor 300. The filtering assembly 100 further includes: a plurality of positioning members 250 located between the filtering assembly 100 and a part of the second main body 210 forming the first cavity 211, and the plurality of positioning members 250 are disposed on the filtering assembly 100 or the second main body 210.
[0240] In this embodiment, the filtering assembly 100 further includes a plurality of positioning members 250, and the plurality of positioning members 250 are located between the filtering assembly 100 and a part of the second main body 210 forming the first cavity 211. It can be understood that when the filtering assembly 100 is placed in the first cavity 211, there is a certain gap between the filtering assembly 100 and the second main body 210 constituting the first cavity 211. To prevent a large relative displacement between the filtering assembly 100 and the second main body 210, a plurality of positioning members 250 are provided between the filtering assembly 100 and a part of the second main body 210 forming the first cavity 211 to reduce the gap between the filtering assembly 100 and the second main body 210, thereby reducing the relative displacement that can occur between the filtering assembly 100 and the second main body 210, and playing a positioning role for the filtering assembly 100.
[0241] Further, a plurality of positioning members 250 can be disposed on the filter assembly 100 or on the second main body 210. Specifically, when the plurality of positioning members 250 are disposed on the filter assembly 100, the plurality of positioning members 250 can be circumferentially disposed on the outer wall of the filter assembly 100. When the plurality of positioning members 250 are disposed on the second main body 210, the plurality of positioning members 250 can be circumferentially disposed on the inner wall surface of the first cavity 211 that is opposite to the filter assembly 100.
[0242] By providing a plurality of positioning members 250 between the filter assembly 100 and a part of the second main body 210 that forms the first cavity 211, the gap between the filter assembly 100 and the second main body 210 can be reduced, thereby reducing the relative displacement that can occur between the filter assembly 100 and the second main body 210, playing a positioning role for the filter assembly 100, so that the filter assembly 100 is stably placed in the filtering device 200 to ensure the normal operation of the filtering device 200.
[0243] Embodiment 11:
[0244] As Figure 9 、 Figure 10 、 Figure 13 、 [[ID=6 、 、 shown, based on any of the above embodiments, Embodiment 11 provides a food processor 300. The second main body 210 further includes: a second cavity 213, a drive motor 221 is disposed in the second cavity 213, an output shaft extends out of the second cavity 213, and a first transmission member 222 is located outside the second cavity 213; an avoidance notch 214, corresponding to the first transmission member 222, communicating with the first cavity 211, and at least part of the first transmission member 222 extends into the first cavity 211 through the avoidance notch 214.
[0245] In this embodiment, the second main body 210 includes a second cavity 213, and the drive motor 221 is disposed in the second cavity 213. An opening is provided at the bottom of the second cavity 213. The second main body 210 includes a motor cavity bottom cover 217, which is connected to the second main body 210 at the opening at the bottom of the second cavity 213 for covering the second cavity 213. The second main body 210 is further provided with a plurality of second connecting members 270 for connecting the second main body 210 and the motor cavity bottom cover 217. The second connecting members 270 can be screws.
[0246] Specifically, a third through hole is provided on the motor cavity bottom cover 217, and the output shaft of the motor extends out of the second cavity 213 through the third through hole and is connected to the first transmission member 222. The first transmission member 222 is disposed outside the second cavity 213. Specifically, the first transmission member 222 is disposed between the support bottom cover 215 and the bottom wall of the second cavity 213.
[0247] The second main body 210 is further provided with an avoidance notch 214 which is communicated with the second cavity 213. The first transmission member 222 extends into the second cavity 213 through the avoidance notch 214 and is matched with the second transmission member 223.
[0248] The second main body 210 further includes a second cover 219 which is arranged at the open end of the second cavity 213 on the side far away from the drive motor 221 and is used for closing the opening of the second cavity 213. Specifically, a positioning boss is arranged in the second cavity 213, and one end of the second cover 219 abuts against the positioning boss to limit the second cover 219. A positioning protrusion 225 is arranged on the side wall of the second cover 219, and a positioning groove 218 which is matched with the positioning protrusion 225 is further arranged on the inner wall of the second cavity 213. When the second cover 219 is placed in the second cavity 213, the positioning protrusion 225 on the second cover 219 is inserted into the positioning groove 218 of the second cavity 213 to prevent the second cover 219 from rotating and limit the second cover 219.
[0249] By arranging the second cavity 213 in the second main body 210 and arranging the drive motor 221 in the second cavity 213, a certain protection effect is achieved on the drive motor 221, and the influence of the external environment on the motor is reduced. And by arranging the second cover 219 to close the opening of the second cavity 213, external impurities are prevented from entering the second cavity 213 to damage the drive motor 221, and the protection effect on the drive motor 221 is improved.
[0250] Embodiment 12:
[0251] As 、 、 and shown, on the basis of any of the above embodiments, Embodiment 12 provides a food processor 300. The filtering device 200 further includes: a rolling member 230 which is rotatably arranged on the filtering assembly 100, and the rolling member 230 is located between the filtering assembly 100 and the second main body 210.
[0252] In this embodiment, the filtering device 200 includes a rolling member 230 which is rotatably arranged on the filtering assembly 100 and is located between the filtering assembly 100 and the second main body 210. Specifically, the rolling member 230 is arranged on the bottom wall of the filtering assembly 100, and the filtering assembly 100 abuts against the second main body 210 through the rolling member 230. The rolling member 230 is rotatably arranged on the filtering assembly 100. When the filtering assembly 100 rotates driven by the drive motor 221, the filtering assembly 100 rolls along the second main body 210 under the support of the rolling member 230, reducing the friction between the filtering assembly 100 and the second main body 210.
[0253] By arranging a rolling member 230 between the filtering component 100 and the second main body 210, on the one hand, it plays a supporting role for the filtering component 100. On the other hand, when the filtering component 100 is in a rotating state, since the rolling friction exists between the rolling member 230 and the second main body 210, the frictional force is extremely small, thereby reducing the force on the filtering component 100, lowering the frictional loss, and improving the working efficiency of the filtering device 200. And because the frictional force between the filtering component 100 and the second main body 210 is reduced, the noise generated during the rotation of the filtering component 100 is also reduced, playing a role in noise reduction.
[0254] Embodiment 13:
[0255] As and shown, on the basis of any of the above embodiments, Embodiment 13 provides a food processor 300. The filtering component 100 further includes: a housing 110, the housing 110 includes a third cavity 111, and the housing 110 includes a second drain port; a filter element 120, disposed in the third cavity 111, the filter element 120 is configured to have a cavity structure with an opening, and a plurality of filter holes are provided on the filter element 120; a connecting component 130, capable of detachably connecting the filter element 120 to the housing 110; wherein, a drain channel is formed between the filter element 120 and the housing 110, and the drain channel communicates with the second drain port.
[0256] In this embodiment, the filtering component 100 includes a housing 110. A third cavity 111 and a second drain port are further provided in the housing 110. Among them, the second drain port communicates with the third cavity 111 and is provided on the bottom wall of the housing 110, that is, the liquid in the third cavity 111 can flow out of the housing 110 through the second drain port.
[0257] Further, the filtering component 100 further includes a filter element 120. The filter element 120 is a cavity-type structure with an opening, that is, the filter element 120 includes a plurality of wall surfaces, and the plurality of wall surfaces enclose a receiving cavity, and an opening is provided on one side of the filter element 120, and the opening communicates with the receiving cavity. A plurality of filter holes are also provided on the filter element 120. Specifically, the filter holes are provided on the wall surface of the filter element 120. It can be understood that when the liquid mixed with impurities flows into the filter element 120, the liquid can flow out of the filter element 120 through the filter holes on the wall surface, while the impurities are blocked by the filter holes and remain in the receiving cavity of the filter element 120, thereby achieving a filtering effect. The filtering effect of the filter element 120 is related to the density of the filter holes. The higher the density of the filter holes, the higher the filtering effect. However, a too-high density of filter holes will cause difficulty in liquid discharge. To balance the filtering effect and the liquid discharge speed of the filter element 120, the density of the filter holes can be set in the range of 50 mesh to 120 mesh, preferably 80 mesh. The filter element 120 is arranged in the third cavity 111. The liquid filtered by the filter element 120 flows into the third cavity 111 and is discharged from the third cavity 111 through the second liquid discharge port.
[0258] Further, a connection component 130 is also provided in the filtering component 100 for connecting the filter element 120 and the housing 110. Specifically, the filter element 120 can be detachably connected to the housing 110 through the connection component 130. Among them, the connection component 130 can be a separate component independent of the filter element 120 and the housing 110, or can be a component provided on the filter element 120 and / or the housing 110.
[0259] Specifically, the connection component 130 can be a threaded connection structure, that is, a threaded connection structure is provided on the side walls of the housing 110 and the filter element 120 as the connection component 130, and the housing 110 and the filter element 120 are connected or separated by the screwing of the threads. The connection component 130 can also be a snap connection structure. That is, a clamping groove is provided on one of the housing 110 and the filter element 120, and a snap protrusion is provided on the other. The snap protrusion can be snapped into the clamping groove to connect the housing 110 and the filter element 120, and the snap protrusion can also slide out of the clamping groove to separate the two. The connection component 130 can also be a separate component independent of the housing 110 and the filter element 120. By connecting or separating the connection component 130 with the housing 110 and the filter element 120 respectively, the connection or separation of the housing 110 and the filter element 120 is achieved. Further, a gap is left between the filter element 120 located in the third cavity 111 and the housing 110, so as to form a liquid discharge channel between the filter element 120 and the housing 110. The liquid discharge channel is located in the third cavity 111 and communicates with the second liquid discharge port. The filtered liquid flows into the liquid discharge channel through the filter holes and then is discharged from the second liquid discharge port, thereby realizing the filtering and liquid discharge functions of the liquid.
[0260] The filtering process of the filtering component 100 is as follows: The liquid containing impurities flows into the accommodating cavity of the filtering element 120. The filtering holes on the filtering element 120 block the impurities in the liquid within the filtering element 120, while the liquid passes through the filtering holes and exits the filtering element 120. The filtered liquid then flows into the drain channel and is discharged from the filtering component 100 through the second drain port, completing the filtering of the liquid by the filtering component 100. When the filtering component 100 is disposed in the filtering device 200, the filtering component 100 can rotate under the drive of the driving component. The rotating filtering component 100 generates a centrifugal force. Under the action of the centrifugal force, the liquid in the filtering element 120 quickly drains from the filtering holes into the drain channel, accelerating the filtering process and improving the filtering effect.
[0261] By providing the connecting component 130 in the filtering component 100, the housing 110 and the filtering element 120 are detachably connected through the connecting component 130, forming an integral whole, which facilitates the taking, placing, and cleaning of the entire filtering component 100 and improves the convenience of use. By providing the filtering element 120 in the filtering component 100, the impurities in the liquid can be separated from the liquid, thereby realizing the filtering function of the liquid. And by setting the filtering element 120 as a cavity structure with an opening, the liquid can flow into the filtering element 120 through the opening on the filtering element 120, thereby realizing the filtering of the liquid. By forming a drain channel between the filtering element 120 and the housing 110, it plays a role in guiding the liquid flowing out of the filtering element 120, guiding the flow direction of the liquid and concentrating it at the second drain port for discharge, facilitating the collection of the liquid and enhancing the convenience of use of the filtering component 100.
[0262] Embodiment 14:
[0263] As , and shown, based on any of the above embodiments, Embodiment 14 provides a food processor 300. The connecting component 130 includes: a face cover 132 located at the opening of the filtering element 120, and a first inlet 131 communicating with the filtering cavity of the filtering element 120 is provided on the face cover 132; a first mounting side cover 133, which can be connected to both the housing 110 and the filtering element 120; wherein, the face cover 132 is provided on the filtering element 120 or the face cover 132 is provided on the first mounting side cover 133.
[0264] In this embodiment, the connecting component 130 includes a surface cover 132, which is arranged at the opening of the filter element 120. The surface cover 132 is also provided with a first liquid inlet 131 connected to the filter cavity of the filter element 120. The first liquid inlet 131 is connected to the accommodating cavity of the filter element 120. The liquid outside the filter component 100 can flow into the filter element 120 through the first liquid inlet 131 to achieve filtering of the liquid.
[0265] It is understood that when the filter assembly 100 is filtering, liquid flows into the drainage channel between the filter element 120 and the housing 110. If the filter element 120 and the housing 110 are open on the side near the opening of the filter element 120, the liquid in the drainage channel is likely to splash out of the filter assembly 100. Therefore, a cover 132 is provided in the connecting assembly 130 and is placed at the opening of the filter element 120 to block the liquid in the drainage channel and prevent the liquid from splashing out of the filter assembly 100.
[0266] Furthermore, the connecting assembly 130 further includes a first mounting side cover 133 , which is connected to the housing 110 and the filter element 120 respectively, so that the housing 110 and the filter element 120 are connected together through the first mounting side cover 133 .
[0267] The surface cover 132 can be provided on the first mounting side cover 133 or on the filter element 120. Specifically, the surface cover 132 can be connected to the first mounting side cover 133 as an integral structure or can be connected to the filter element 120 as an integral structure.
[0268] By providing a cover 132 at the opening of the filter element 120, the liquid in the drainage channel can be blocked, preventing the liquid from splashing out of the filter assembly 100. A first mounting side cover 133 is provided in the connecting assembly 130 and is connected to the housing 110 and the filter element 120 respectively. Thus, the housing 110 and the filter element 120 are connected as a whole through the first mounting side cover 133, allowing the filter element 120 and the housing 110 to be removed, placed, and cleaned as a whole, making it easier for users to use.
[0269] Example 15:
[0270] like 、 and As shown, based on any of the above embodiments, embodiment 15 provides a food processor 300, and the connecting assembly 130 also includes: a first mounting member 137, which is arranged on the first surface 136 of the first mounting side cover 133, and the first mounting member 137 can be connected to the shell 110; a second mounting member 139, which is arranged on the second surface 138 of the first mounting side cover 133, and the second mounting member 139 can be connected to the filter element 120.
[0271] In this embodiment, the first mounting side cover 133 includes a first surface 136 and a second surface 138. The housing 110 and the filter element 120 can be respectively connected to different surfaces of the first mounting side cover 133, so as to connect the filter element 120 and the housing 110 into a whole through the first mounting side cover 133.
[0272] Among them, the connecting assembly 130 includes a first mounting member 137 and a second mounting member 139. The first mounting member 137 is disposed on the first surface 136 of the first mounting side cover 133, and the first mounting member 137 can be connected to the housing 110, thereby connecting the housing 110 to the first surface 136 of the first mounting side cover 133. The second mounting member 139 is disposed on the second surface 138 of the first mounting side cover 133, and the second mounting member 139 can be connected to the filter element 120, thereby connecting the filter element 120 to the second surface 138 of the first mounting side cover 133.
[0273] The first surface 136 and the second surface 138 can face the same side or different sides.
[0274] When the first surface 136 and the second surface 138 face the same side, both the first surface 136 and the second surface 138 face the outside of the first mounting side cover 133, and the first surface 136 and the second surface 138 are distributed in a stepped manner. The second surface 138 is closer to the center of the first mounting side cover 133 than the first surface 136.
[0275] When the first surface 136 and the second surface 138 face different sides, the first surface 136 faces the outside of the first mounting side cover 133, and the second surface 138 faces the inside of the first mounting side cover 133, so that the filter element 120 after being connected to the first mounting side cover 133 is located inside the housing 110.
[0276] Regardless of whether the first surface 136 and the second surface 138 face the same side or not, after the first mounting side cover 133 is connected to the housing 110 in place, there is a certain distance between the housing 110 and the second surface 138. The space between the second surface 138 and the housing 110 can accommodate the filter element 120. After the filter element 120 is connected to the first through the second mounting member 139, there is still a gap between the side wall of the filter element 120 and the side wall of the housing 110, so as to facilitate the liquid to flow from the filter element 120 into the first cavity 211. The gap between the side wall of the filter element 120 and the side wall of the housing 110 and the gap between the bottom wall of the filter element 120 and the bottom wall of the housing 110 together form a drainage channel.
[0277] Specifically, the connection process between the housing 110 and the filter element 120 and the housing 110 is as follows: First, after connecting the first installation side cover 133 to the filter element 120 through the second installation member 139, the first installation side cover 133 drives the filter element 120 to be inserted into the housing 110, and the first installation side cover 133 is connected to the housing 110 through the first installation member 137, thereby completing the connection process between the first installation side cover 133 and the filter element 120 and the housing 110.
[0278] By respectively arranging the first installation member 137 and the second installation member 139 on the first surface 136 and the second surface 138 of the first installation side cover 133, the first installation side cover 133 can be respectively connected to the filter element 120 and the housing 110. Thus, the filter element 120 and the housing 110 are connected as a whole, facilitating picking up, placing, and cleaning, and enhancing the user experience. And since the first installation member 137 and the second installation member 139 are respectively arranged on different surfaces of the first installation side cover 133, it can prevent the problem of interference between the housing 110 and the filter element 120 during the connection process of the first installation side cover 133 with the housing 110 and the filter element 120, and can ensure the smooth connection of the housing 110 and the filter element 120.
[0279] As 、 and shown, further, the filter assembly 100 further includes: a third installation member 114, arranged on the housing 110, and the third installation member 114 can be detachably connected to the first installation member 137; a fourth installation member 121, arranged on the filter element 120, and the fourth installation member 121 can be detachably connected to the second installation member 139.
[0280] In this technical solution, the filter assembly 100 is provided with a third installation member 114 and a fourth installation member 121. Among them, the third installation member 114 is arranged on the housing 110, and the third installation member 114 is detachably connected to the first installation member 137, thereby realizing the connection and separation between the housing 110 and the first installation side cover 133.
[0281] The fourth installation member 121 is arranged on the filter element 120, and the fourth installation member 121 is detachably connected to the second installation member 139, thereby realizing the connection and separation between the filter element 120 and the first installation side cover 133.
[0282] By arranging the third installation member 114 on the housing 110, the connection and separation between the first installation side cover 133 and the housing 110 are realized. By arranging the fourth installation member 121 on the filter element 120, the connection and separation between the first installation side cover 133 and the filter element 120 are realized.
[0283] Example 16:
[0284] As , and As shown in , and , based on any of the above embodiments, Embodiment 16 provides a food processor 300. The filtering assembly 100 further includes: a lifting member 143 disposed on the housing 110, the filtering member 120 or the connecting assembly 130.
[0285] In this embodiment, in order to facilitate the movement of the filtering assembly 100, a lifting member 143 is provided in the filtering assembly 100. Among them, the lifting member 143 can be disposed on the housing 110, the filtering member 120 or the connecting assembly 130.
[0286] By providing the lifting member 143 on the filtering assembly 100, it is convenient for the user to move the filtering assembly 100.
[0287] Embodiment 17:

[0289] In this embodiment, the crushing device 320 includes a crushing cup, the crushing chamber 326 is disposed in the crushing cup, and the crushing cup is used to accommodate the ingredients to be processed. The crushing cup is further provided with a diversion pipe 322 communicating with the crushing chamber 326, and the diversion pipe 322 extends in the direction of the first liquid inlet 131 of the filtering device 200. The solid-liquid mixture completed in the crushing chamber 326 flows out of the crushing chamber 326 through the diversion pipe 322 and flows into the filtering device 200 through the first liquid inlet 131. The diversion pipe 322 is disposed at the bottom of the crushing cup to facilitate the outflow of the solid-liquid mixture in the crushing chamber 326.
[0290] Furthermore, the crushing device 320 is provided with a valve assembly 323, and the valve assembly 323 can be disposed in the crushing cup to conduct or block the crushing cup and the first liquid inlet 131. Specifically, when the food processor 300 processes the ingredients in the crushing cup, the valve assembly 323 blocks the crushing cup and the first liquid inlet 131 to prevent the unprocessed ingredients from flowing out of the crushing cup. After the ingredients in the crushing cup are completely crushed and the liquid is mixed, the valve assembly 323 conducts the crushing cup and the first liquid inlet 131 so that the processed ingredients flow into the filtering device 200 through the first liquid inlet 131 for filtering.
[0291] By providing a valve assembly 323 in the crushing device 320 to connect or block the crushing chamber 326 with the first liquid inlet 131, it is possible to control whether the food materials flow out of the crushing chamber 326 during different food processing stages, prevent the unprocessed food materials from flowing out, and enable the processed food materials to automatically flow into the filtering device 200 without manual operation, thus improving the usability.

That is, through the control method of the food processor proposed in this embodiment, a food processor can complete the production of multiple beverages, realizing the multi-beverage production function of the food processor, increasing the usage range of the food processor, improving the overall performance of the food processor, and being conducive to the promotion and publicity of the food processor.
[0300] Further, in this embodiment, the first production process includes a heating stage and a filtering and discharging stage. Among them, the heating stage is to control the heating device to heat the crushing device until the crushing device reaches the set temperature. The filtering and discharging stage is to discharge the food materials in the crushing device into the filtering component, and then discharge the food materials from the filtering component into the slurry receiving cup. That is to say, when the food processor runs the first production process to make a drink, the food materials in the food processor will be heated to the set temperature, filtered, and discharged in sequence. At this time, the food materials for making the drink can be food materials soluble in water arranged in the filtering component, such as powdered food materials like coffee powder, soybean milk powder, milk powder, etc.
[0301] Further, the above-mentioned second production process includes a crushing stage and a filtering and discharging stage. Among them, the crushing stage is to control the crushing device to crush the food materials placed therein. At this time, the food materials for making the drink can be solid food materials such as fruits and vegetables that need to be crushed. At this time, the food materials for making the drink can be solid food materials such as fruits and vegetables that need to be crushed. Specifically, the above-mentioned second production process can also include a heating stage. That is to say, when the food processor runs the second production process to make a drink, the food can be heated to the set temperature, crushed, filtered, and discharged through the heating device. The drink made can be a drink such as soybean milk that needs to be heated and crushed. <s
[0302] It is worth noting that when the food materials are discharged from the crushing device to the filtering component, the filtering component will automatically filter or dissolve the food materials. In this way, the made drink is more delicate and uniform, ensuring the user's eating taste. At the same time, by automatically filtering the food materials through the filtering component, it avoids the user manually filtering the drink with other tools, reduces the user's operation steps, improves the efficiency of drink making, and improves the general applicability of the food processor, which is conducive to the publicity and promotion of the food processor.
[0303] Therefore, through the control method of the food processor proposed by the present invention, by controlling the filtering accuracy of the filtering and discharging stage and the combination with the heating stage and / or the crushing stage, the function of making multiple drinks can be realized by one food processor, improving the applicability of the food processor, and the drink can be automatically filtered, reducing the user's operation steps, improving the efficiency of drink making, and thus improving the overall performance of the food processor.
[0304] Embodiment 19:
[0305] In this embodiment, on the basis of Embodiment 18, further, the above-mentioned filtering and discharging stage may specifically include:
[0306] Control the driving component to standby to perform first-precision filtering on the food materials in the filtering component.
[0307] In this embodiment, the filtration and deslurrying stage specifically involves controlling the drive assembly to a standby state, meaning that the drive assembly does not drive the filter assembly to rotate. This allows the food to enter the filter assembly and undergo only a first-degree filtration of impurities and fibers from the food through the filter screen placed there. This first-degree filtration is a preliminary filtration process, and some impurities and fibers may still be present in the filtered food. This means that the resulting beverage is a high-fiber beverage. For users who prefer this type of beverage, selecting the standby state allows them to prepare the beverage, meeting their specific needs.
[0308] Specifically, based on the standby state of the driving component in the filtering and pulping stage of the first production program, it means that the filtering component does not need to filter and there is no food that needs to be dissolved. The above-mentioned first production program can be used to make hot water.
[0309] Specifically, based on the standby state of the drive component in the filtering and pulping stage of the second production program, it indicates that the filtering component needs to perform first-precision filtration, that is, primary filtration. The above-mentioned second production program can be used to produce beverages with more fibers that require crushing, heating and primary filtration, such as ordinary soy milk.
[0310] Example 20:
[0311] In this embodiment, based on Example 18, the above-mentioned filtering and pulping stage can further specifically include: controlling the operation of the driving component to drive the filter component to rotate, so as to perform a second precision filtration on the food in the filter component.
[0312] In this embodiment, the filtration and deslurrying stage may also include controlling the operation of the drive assembly to drive the filter assembly to rotate, thereby performing a second-degree filtration on the food in the filter assembly. This second-degree filtration is a depth filtration, and compared to the first-degree filtration, the beverage produced by this second-degree filtration is more uniform and smooth. Specifically, after the food enters the filter assembly, it is not only initially filtered by the filter screen within the filter assembly, but also deeply filtered by the drive assembly driving the filter assembly to rotate.
[0313] Specifically, in this embodiment, when the drive assembly is in operation, it drives the filter assembly to rotate slowly. This rotation generates a certain centrifugal force, which enables automated centrifugal filtration of the beverage, thereby achieving deep filtration of the beverage in addition to the initial filtration by the filter. This allows users to obtain highly uniform and fine beverages without the need for additional manual filtration. This ensures a pleasant taste while reducing the number of steps required, improving beverage preparation efficiency, satisfying user needs, and enhancing the overall performance of the food processor.
[0314] Specifically, based on the driving component in the filtration and slurry discharging stage of the first production process driving the filtration component to rotate, it indicates that the filtration component stores the ingredients to be dissolved. The above-mentioned first production process can be used to produce instant beverages such as instant coffee powder, soy milk powder, and milk powder.
[0315] Specifically, based on the driving component in the filtration and slurry discharging stage of the second production process standing by to drive the filtration component to rotate, it indicates that the filtration component needs to perform second-precision filtration, that is, deep filtration. The above-mentioned second production process can be used to produce delicate-taste beverages that require crushing, heating, and deep filtration, such as plant milk, soy milk with a delicate taste, etc.
[0316] Embodiment 21:
[0317] In this embodiment, on the basis of Embodiment 20, further, based on the target production process being the first production process, the above-mentioned step S104 may specifically include the following step S104a and step S104b.
[0318] Step S104a: After controlling the heating device to heat for a first preset duration, control the crushing device to discharge slurry into the filtration component;
[0319] Step S104b: Control the driving component to operate at a first preset moment to drive the filtration component to rotate.
[0320] Specifically, in this embodiment, the first preset moment may be within the first preset duration, that is, before the crushing device discharges slurry, when the ingredients in the crushing device are still being heated, the driving component is operated to make it in a rotating state, thereby driving the rotation of the filtration component.
[0321] Specifically, in this embodiment, the first preset moment may also be after the first preset duration, that is, the driving component is operated to drive the filtration component to rotate after the heating is completed. In this way, when there is no hot water entering the filtration component, the filtration component will not rotate, avoiding the waste of electric power resources and reducing the energy consumption of the food processor.
[0322] It should be noted that in this embodiment, the control device can, according to the selection operation made by the user for the type and taste of the beverage, only heat the ingredients in the crushing device without crushing them, that is, the liquid discharged into the filtration component at this time is hot water. At this time, an appropriate amount of powdered ingredients such as coffee powder, milk powder, and soy milk powder can be placed in the filtration component. When the driving component drives the filtration component to rotate and the filtration component rotates slowly, the above-mentioned powdered ingredients can be more fully brewed.
[0323] It can be understood that, compared with the beverages directly brewed with hot water, in the embodiments of the present invention, the powdery ingredients in the filtering component can be rotated and filtered simultaneously. The powdery ingredients remaining in the filtering component gradually decrease with the rotation of the filtering component and the injection of hot water until they are completely brewed. In this way, the above-mentioned powdery ingredients are brewed more fully, so that a richer and more delicious taste can be obtained.
[0324] Exemplarily, when the type of beverage is a coffee beverage, the user puts coffee powder into the filtering component according to the recipe, and then selects the coffee function item on the IMD panel. The display board transmits the received signal through the circuit to the control device MCU installed on the body of the food processor. The control device determines the target production program corresponding to the coffee and starts to execute the target production program, controls the pump body to work to pump water from the liquid storage tank and the pipeline component into the crushing cavity, and the heating device performs heating work. When the heating device heats for a period of time until the water temperature reaches the set temperature, before discharging the beverage to the filtering component, the driving component starts to operate and drives the filtering component to rotate; subsequently, the crushing device discharges the beverage into the filtering component, and the filtering component rotates to perform low-speed centrifugal brewing on the discharged beverage; finally, the filtered beverage is discharged from the filtering component, and thus a uniform and delicate coffee beverage is obtained.
[0325] It should be noted that there is no specific sequence relationship between the control device executing the above S104a and S104b. S104a can be executed first and then S104b, or vice versa.
[0326] Furthermore, in this embodiment, before the above S104b, the control method of the food processor provided in this embodiment may further include the following step S106.
[0327] Step S106: Determine that the mass of the filtering component is greater than a preset threshold.
[0328] Specifically, in this embodiment, the preset threshold may be equal to the mass of the filtering component when it is idle, and the preset threshold may also be slightly greater than the mass of the filtering component when it is idle.
[0329] In this embodiment, when the mass of the filtering component is greater than the preset threshold, it means that the filtering component contains contents. At this time, the control device controls the driving component to operate to drive the filtering component to rotate; when the mass of the filtering component is not greater than the preset threshold, it means that the filtering component does not contain contents. At this time, the control device does not need to control the driving component to operate. In this way, the waste of electric power resources is avoided, the energy consumption of the food processor is reduced, and the performance of the food processor is improved.
[0330] Embodiment 22:
[0331] In this embodiment, on the basis of Embodiment 20, further, based on the target production program being the second production program, which further includes a heating stage in the second production program, the above step S104 may specifically include the following steps S104c, S104d, and S104e.
[0332] Step S104c: Control the heating device to heat for a second preset duration.
[0333] Step S104d: Control the crushing device to perform a crushing operation. After a third preset duration, control the crushing device to discharge slurry into the filtering component.
[0334] Specifically, in this embodiment, the second preset duration and the third preset duration may have an overlapping relationship on the time axis. Specifically, the control device may control the crushing device and the heating device to simultaneously perform heating and crushing operations on the ingredients in the crushing device. Further specifically, the control device may also, after the heating device heats the food for a period of time, then use the crushing device to crush the ingredients. The preheated ingredients are easier to crush, improving the production efficiency of the beverage.
[0335] Step S104e: Control the driving component to operate at a first preset moment to drive the filtering component to rotate.
[0336] In this embodiment, when the driving component operates, the driving component can drive the filtering component to rotate slowly, and thus the process of automatic centrifugal filtration of the beverage can be realized through the centrifugal force generated by the rotation. Thus, on the basis of filtration by the filter screen, deep filtration of the beverage is achieved. In this way, automatic filtration of the beverage is realized, improving the taste of the beverage, reducing the operation steps of the user, improving the filtration efficiency, and meeting the needs of the user.
[0337] It can be understood that the first preset moment can be the moment when the driving component needs to start working. Specifically, the first preset moment can be the initial moment when the driving component executes the target production program.
[0338] Specifically, the first preset moment may be within the third preset duration, that is, before the crushing device discharges slurry, when the ingredients in the crushing device are still being crushed, the driving component is operated to make it in a rotating state, thereby driving the rotation of the filtering component. In this way, when the produced beverage is discharged from the crushing device to the filtering component, automatic centrifugal filtration operation can be performed on it in a timely manner, ensuring that all the beverages entering the filtering component can be filtered in a timely manner, ensuring the uniformity and fineness of the beverage, and improving the taste of the beverage.
[0339] Specifically, in this embodiment, the first preset moment can be after the third preset duration, that is, after the crushing is completed, the driving component is operated to drive the filtering component to rotate. In this way, when no drink enters the filtering component, the filtering component will not perform filtering operations, avoiding waste of electric power resources and reducing the energy consumption of the food processor.
[0340] Exemplarily, when the type of drink is a plant milk drink, the user puts the ingredients into the crushing device according to the recipe and selects the plant milk drink through an input operation. The control device determines the corresponding target production program according to the plant milk drink. Thus, the food processor starts to operate according to the target production program. Specifically, the control device controls the water pump to work and pumps water from the liquid storage tank and the pipeline component into the crushing device, and the heating device heats the crushing device; after heating for a period of time, the crushing device starts to crush and cut the food inside it; then, before discharging the drink after the crushing is completed, the driving component starts to operate and drives the filtering component to rotate; subsequently, the crushing device discharges the drink into the filtering component, and the filtering component rotates to perform low-speed centrifugal filtration on the discharged drink; finally, the filtered drink is discharged from the filtering component, thereby obtaining a uniform and delicate plant milk drink.
[0341] It should be noted that there is no specific order relationship between the control device's execution of the above S104c and S104d. It can execute S104c first and then S104d, or vice versa. The control device executes S104e prior to S104d. The control device can execute S104d after executing S104e, or can start to execute S104d during the execution of S104e.
[0342] Embodiment 23:
[0343] In this embodiment, on the basis of Embodiment 20, further, based on the target production program being the second production program, the above second program further includes a heating stage, and the above step S104 may specifically include the following steps S104f, step S104g, and step S104h.
[0344] In this embodiment, the driving component remains in a standby state. At this time, the filtering component will not rotate. For the drink that enters the filtering component, the filtering component can only perform preliminary filtering on it through the filter screen, that is, the drink produced at this time is a high-fiber drink.
[0345] Step S104f, control the heating device to heat for a fourth preset duration.
[0346] Step S104g, control the crushing device to perform a crushing operation. After a fifth preset duration, control the crushing device to discharge the pulp into the filtering component.
[0347] Step S104h, control the driving component to remain in a standby state.
[0348] Specifically, in this embodiment, the fourth preset time length and the fifth preset time length may have the same initial moment. At this time, the food in the crushing device is heated and crushed at the same time, which can improve the efficiency of beverage preparation.
[0349] Specifically, in this embodiment, the fourth preset time length and the fifth preset time length may also overlap on the time axis. After the food is heated for a period of time, it is crushed. The preheated food is easier to crush, thereby improving the efficiency of beverage production.
[0350] For example, when the beverage is a high-fiber beverage, the user puts the ingredients into the grinding device according to the recipe, selects a function item on the IMD panel, and the display panel transmits the received signal via the line to the control device installed on the body of the food processor. The control device determines the target production program corresponding to the high-fiber beverage, and controls the pump body to work and flow water from the liquid storage tank and the pipeline assembly into the grinding chamber. The heating device heats the grinding device for a fourth preset time; at the same time or thereafter, the grinding device starts to grind and cut the food inside it for a fifth preset time; finally, the beverage after grinding is discharged from the grinding device and is preliminarily filtered through the filter assembly to obtain a high-fiber beverage.
[0351] Example 24:
[0352] In this embodiment, based on Embodiments 18 to 23, the food processor further includes a detection device for detecting whether the filter assembly is located in the working position. On this basis, the control method also includes the following step S108.
[0353] Step S108: Based on the detection result of the detection device that the filter component is not in the working position, abandon the response and execute the target production program.
[0354] In this embodiment, under normal circumstances, the filter assembly is located below the pulverizing device to receive liquid discharged from the pulverizing device. When the control device detects, via the detection device, that the filter assembly is not in the operating position, the control device forgoes responding to and executing the target operating mode. Because the food processor can store beverage residue, when the filter assembly is not in the operating position, excessive beverage residue may affect the taste, resulting in a poor user experience, or easily cause internal contamination of the food processor. Thus, when the filter assembly is not in the operating position, the food processor does not perform any preparation operations, improving the overall performance of the food processor and the user experience.
[0355] It should be noted that the above S108 can be performed after receiving the user's selection operation for the type of drink, that is, it is executed after S102. When the control device determines that the filtering component is not in the working position, the control device abandons the execution of the target operation mode.
[0356] Embodiment 25:

[0358] The receiving unit 402 is configured to receive the user's selection operation for the type of drink.
[0359] In this embodiment, the control device is applicable to a food processor that stores and can run multiple production programs. The selection operation is used to determine a target production program from multiple production programs, and the multiple production programs at least include a first production program and a second production program. Among them, the first production program includes: a heating stage and a filtering and discharging stage, and the second production program includes: a heating stage, a crushing stage, and a filtering and discharging stage.

[0363] Specifically, in this embodiment, the processing unit 404 is further configured to control the driving component to standby to perform first-precision filtering on the ingredients in the filtering component.
[0364] Specifically, in this embodiment, the processing unit 404 can also be used to control the driving component to run to drive the filtering component to rotate to perform second-precision filtering on the ingredients in the filtering component.

[0369] Specifically, in this embodiment, the processing unit 404 is further configured to, based on the detection result of the detection device indicating that the filtering component is not in the working position, control the food processor to abandon responding to the execution of the target production program.
