[0003] However, the food processor with the above structure still has the following shortcomings: (1) The scraper portion is mainly used to scrape the lower part of the inner wall of the feed barrel, and it is unable to scrape the inner wall of the cutter seat. In particular, some sticky ingredients are easy to adhere to the inner wall of the cutter seat, affecting the subsequent juicing effect. Summary of the invention

[0004] The purpose of the present invention is to solve the deficiencies of the above-mentioned prior art and to provide a food processor which can scrape the inner wall of the discharge port of the tool seat to reduce the residue of food on the tool seat and improve the processing effect.

[0005] The object of the present invention is achieved in that: A food processing machine comprises a feed barrel and a cutter, wherein the feed barrel is provided with a feed port and a discharge port, a cutter seat is provided at the lower part of the feed barrel, a discharge port connected to the discharge port is opened on the cutter seat, the cutter is rotatably mounted on the cutter seat, a first cutter segment is provided on the cutter and the first cutter segment is located above the discharge port, and the feature is that a scraper is provided on one side of the cutter, and one side of the scraper is close to the inner wall of the discharge port; this food processing machine, by adding a scraper on one side of the cutter, the scraper can scrape the inner wall of the discharge port of the cutter seat to reduce the residue of food on the cutter seat, so that the residue food can be fully processed by subsequent processes and the processing effect is improved; furthermore, the scraper is driven to rotate synchronously by the cutter, so that the drive of the scraper is simple and the scraper will not affect the normal operation of the cutter.

[0006] The purpose of the present invention can also be solved by the following technical measures: Specifically, the scraper member includes a middle section and scraper sections and connecting sections connected on both sides of the middle section, the connecting section is connected to one side of the tool, and one side of the scraper section is close to the inner wall of the discharge port; the scraper member realizes the scraping operation on the inner wall of the discharge port through the scraper section, and realizes the connection with the tool through the connecting section. At the same time, the scraper section and the connecting section are connected together through the middle section to ensure the overall strength of the scraper member.

[0007] Specifically, the scraper section extends outward from one side of the middle section, and the thickness of the scraper section gradually decreases in the extension direction from the middle section to the scraper section; one side of the scraper section with a smaller thickness has a certain degree of deformation, which facilitates the cooperation between one side of the scraper section and the inner wall of the discharge port to achieve a better scraping effect.

[0008] Specifically, a slot is provided on one side of the tool at the position corresponding to the connecting section, and the connecting section is inserted into the slot from bottom to top, and the lower end of the connecting section is against the tool seat; so that the lower end of the connecting section is restricted by the tool seat, thereby achieving a stable connection of the connecting section on the tool.

At the same time, the support section provides a connecting carrier for the connecting section of the tool and the scraper.

[0010] Specifically, the scraper is made of soft material. When the scraper passes through the supporting section, the lower end of the scraper section and the lower end of the middle section are in interference fit with the upper surface of the supporting section; so that the lower end of the scraper section and the lower end of the middle section can scrape the food remaining on the upper surface of the supporting section to the discharge port.

[0011] Specifically, the tool includes a tool holder and a first tool segment connected to the tool holder, the tool holder is installed at the center of the support segment, the connecting segment of the scraper is connected to one side of the tool holder, and the scraper is located below the first tool segment; so that the scraper and the first tool segment are independent of each other, which is conducive to the stable operation of both.

[0013] Specifically, it also includes a main unit and a juice outlet barrel, which is arranged on the main unit, and a screw and a filter assembly are arranged in the juice outlet barrel, the filter assembly is located at the outer periphery of the screw and a grinding space is formed between the filter assembly and the screw, the filter assembly includes an upper module and a lower module, the lower module is movably connected to the lower part of the upper module, and there is a residue and juice filtering gap between the lower module and the upper module, the feed barrel is arranged on the juice outlet barrel, and the discharge port of the tool seat is located above the grinding space, the output part of the main unit extends from bottom to top into the juice outlet barrel and is connected to the screw; the food remaining on the tool seat is scraped to the discharge port by the scraper and finally falls into the grinding space of the juice outlet barrel for sufficient grinding to improve the processing effect.

[0014] Specifically, the lower end of the scraper is further extended downwardly with a lower extension section, which extends downward into the grinding space, and the two sides of the lower extension section are respectively close to the upper inner periphery of the filter assembly and the upper outer periphery of the screw; so that the lower extension section of the scraper can also perform certain scraping operations on the food remaining on the upper inner periphery of the filter assembly and the food remaining on the upper outer periphery of the screw, so that the food falling into the grinding space can be fully ground, thereby improving the overall juice extraction effect.

[0015] The beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: (1) This food processing machine has a scraper member added to one side of the cutter. The scraper member can scrape the inner wall of the discharge port of the cutter seat to reduce the residue of food on the cutter seat, so that the residue food can be fully processed by subsequent processes, thereby improving the processing effect; in addition, the scraper member is driven to rotate synchronously with the cutter, so that the drive of the scraper member is simple and the scraper member will not affect the normal operation of the cutter.

[0016] (2) One side of the scraper section with a smaller thickness has a certain degree of deformation, which facilitates the cooperation between the one side of the scraper section and the inner wall of the discharge port to achieve a better scraping effect.

[0017] (3) The lower extension of the scraper can also perform a certain scraping operation on the food remaining on the upper inner periphery of the filter assembly and the food remaining on the upper outer periphery of the screw, so that the food falling into the grinding space can be fully ground, thereby improving the overall juice extraction effect.
