[0031] This invention provides a rotating mechanism for use in kitchen equipment. Figure 1This is an exploded perspective view of an embodiment of the rotating mechanism of the present invention applied to kitchen equipment. Figure 2 This is a partial half-sectional view of an embodiment of the rotating mechanism of the present invention applied to a kitchen appliance. The rotating mechanism applied to the kitchen appliance includes a shaft 110, a rotating assembly, and a fastener 140. The rotating assembly includes a rotating member 120 and a limiting assembly 130 disposed on the outer periphery of the shaft 110.

[0032] Figure 3 This is a half-sectional schematic diagram of a limiting component in one embodiment of the rotating mechanism of the present invention applied to a kitchen appliance. The limiting component 130 includes a base 131 and a limiting member 132 disposed on the base 131. The limiting member 132 has a first state in which at least a portion of its structure protrudes from the surface of the base 131.

[0033] In some embodiments, the rotating member 120 and the limiting component 130 may be an integral structure. In other embodiments, the rotating member 120 and the limiting component 130 may be separate structures. When they are separate structures, the rotating member 120 may optionally include a mounting part 121. The rotating member 120 is connected to the limiting component 130 and the shaft 110 through the mounting part 121. The present invention will be mainly described below with respect to the rotating component with a separate structure.

[0034] In some embodiments, the rotating member 120 is a stirring member. In other embodiments, the rotating member 120 may be a rotatable component in other kitchen appliances, such as a scraper.

[0035] Fastener 140 is connected to shaft 110. Fastener 140 applies a tightening force to the rotating component and shaft so that rotating component 120 can rotate with shaft 110. In this embodiment, fastener 140 applies a tightening force to mounting portion 121 and shaft so that rotating component 120 can rotate with shaft 110. Limiting member 132 abuts against fastener 140 to limit fastener 140 in at least one rotation direction relative to shaft 110. At least one rotation direction includes the direction in which fastener 140 is loosened and rotated relative to shaft 110.

[0036] In some embodiments, the limiting member 132 abuts against the fastener 140 to limit one rotational direction of the fastener 140 relative to the shaft 110, which is the direction in which the fastener 140 rotates loosely relative to the shaft 110. In some embodiments, the limiting member 132 abuts against the fastener 140 to limit two rotational directions of the fastener 140 relative to the shaft 110, namely, the direction in which the fastener 140 rotates loosely relative to the shaft 110 and the direction in which the fastener 140 rotates lockingly relative to the shaft 110. When the limiting member 132 abuts against the fastener 140, the abutment position of the fastener 140 can be at least one of the side, bottom, and top surfaces of the fastener 140, as long as the direction of loosening rotation of the fastener relative to the shaft 110 is limited.

[0037] According to an embodiment of the present invention, a rotating mechanism for kitchen equipment includes a shaft 110 and a rotating assembly. The rotating assembly includes a rotating member 120 and a limiting assembly 130 disposed on the outer periphery of the shaft 110. A fastener 140 applies a fastening force to the rotating assembly and the shaft so that the rotating member 120 can rotate with the shaft 110. The limiting component 130 includes a base 131 and a limiting member 132 disposed on the base 131. The limiting member 132 has a first state in which at least a portion of its structure protrudes from the surface of the base 131. After the fastener 140 applies a tightening force to the rotating component, the limiting member 132 abuts against the fastener 140 to limit the fastener 140 in at least one rotation direction relative to the shaft 110. The at least one rotation direction includes the direction in which the fastener 140 loosens relative to the shaft 110. Therefore, the fastener 140 no longer loosens relative to the shaft 110. The fastener 140 can stably maintain its tightening ability on the rotating component 120, ensuring that the rotating component 120 will not loosen, thereby avoiding problems such as abnormal noise and uncontrollable cooking effect caused by the loosening of the rotating component 120 after long-term use.

[0038] like Figure 3 In some embodiments, the base 131 is provided with a first channel 1311 that extends through two opposite surfaces of the base 131, and the shaft 110 passes through the rotating member 120 and the base 131 and is fastened to the fastener 140.

[0039] In some embodiments, the shaft 110 and the base 131 may be separate structures that are detachable. In other embodiments, the shaft 110 and the base 131 may be an integral structure.

[0040] In this embodiment, the base 131 is further provided with a second channel 1312, which communicates with at least one surface of the base 131, and a limiting member 132 is disposed in the second channel 1312. The limiting member 132 includes a first end portion 132a protruding from the base 131 in a first state. In this embodiment, the limiting member 132 is movably disposed in the second channel 1312. In the above embodiment, the limiting member 132 has a first state in which the first end portion 132a protrudes from the base 131. In some embodiments, the limiting member 132 also has a second state in which it is retracted into the second channel 1312 or detached from the base 131. For example, in this embodiment, the limiting member 132 also has a second state in which it is retracted into the second channel 1312.

[0041] In other embodiments, the limiting member 132 and the base 131 can be connected in other ways, for example, the limiting member 132 is screwed to the base 131. The limiting member 132 may still include a first end 132a protruding from the base 131 in the first state. Furthermore, the limiting member 132 may also have a second state detached from the base 131.

[0042] In this embodiment, the fastener 140 has a polygonal structure, and at least one edge of the fastener 140 abuts against the first end 132a to restrict the rotation of the fastener 140 relative to the axis 110.

[0043] The engagement between the limiting member 132 and the fastener 140 can also be in other ways. In some embodiments, the limiting member 132 can abut against the fastener 140 from the side of the base 131 near the fastener 140. In some embodiments, the limiting member 132 can also abut against the fastener 140 from the side of the base 131. For example, the limiting member 132 is disposed on the side of the base 131, and the fastener 140 has an extension block that extends to the side wall of the base 131 for limiting engagement.

[0044] Figure 4 This is a top view schematic diagram of the fastener and limiting member in an alternative embodiment of the rotating mechanism of the present invention applied to a kitchen appliance. In some embodiments, the fastener 140 is provided with a third channel 143 that communicates with at least one surface near the base 131, and a first end 132a passes through the third channel 143 to restrict the rotation of the fastener 140 relative to the shaft 110. In some embodiments, the third channel 143 is a through hole; in some embodiments, the third channel 143 is a blind hole.

[0045] Figure 5This is a half-sectional view of a limiting component in another alternative embodiment of the rotating mechanism of the present invention applied to a kitchen appliance. In some embodiments, the fastener 140 is provided with a connecting block 141 extending outward from the side wall, the connecting block 141 being provided with at least one first limiting portion 1411, the first limiting portion 1411 being limited and engaged with the first end 132a.

[0046] like Figure 5 In some embodiments, the first limiting part 1411 is a slot structure, the shape of the first limiting part 1411 matches part of the sidewall of the first end 132a, and a plurality of first limiting parts 1411 are arranged circumferentially.

[0047] In some embodiments, the fastener 140 and the shaft 110 are separately provided and threadedly connected. The number of first limiting parts 1411 provided in the connecting block 141 can be multiple. When the fastener 140 and the shaft 110 are tightened together, the first limiting part 1411 with a suitable position is guaranteed to be able to limit the engagement with the first end 132a, thereby ensuring the connection stability of the rotating mechanism.

[0048] Figure 6 This is a top view schematic diagram of the fastener and limiting member in another alternative embodiment of the rotating mechanism of the present invention applied to kitchen equipment. In some embodiments, the side wall of the fastener 140 does not have a connecting block 141, and the side wall of the fastener 140 has at least one third limiting portion 144. The third limiting portion 144 can be a protruding structure that protrudes relative to the side wall of the fastener 140, or it can be a recessed structure that is recessed relative to the side wall of the fastener 140. The first end portion 132a is limited and engaged with the third limiting portion 144.

[0049] As previously mentioned, in some embodiments, the limiting member 132 also has a second state of being retracted into the second channel 1312 or detached from the base 131.

[0050] like Figures 1 to 3 In some embodiments, the limiting component 130 further includes a blocking member 134 disposed at the end of the second channel 1312 away from the fastener 140.

[0051] like Figures 1 to 3 In other embodiments, the limiting component 130 further includes an elastic element 133, which is connected to the limiting element 132 and configured to reset the limiting element 132 to a first state. The elastic element 133 abuts against the blocking element 134. By providing the elastic element 133, the default state of the limiting component 130 can be set to the first state.

[0052] like Figures 1 to 3 In some embodiments, the outer periphery of the limiting member 132 is provided with a protrusion 132c, and the elastic member 133 abuts between the protrusion 132c and the blocking member 134.

[0053] like Figures 1 to 3 In some embodiments, the inner wall of the second channel 1312 has a second limiting part L1 that protrudes towards the center of the second channel 1312 at one end near the fastener 140. In the first state, the protrusion 132c abuts against the second limiting part L1. By providing the second limiting part L1, it is ensured that the limiting member 132 will not accidentally detach from the base 131 when it moves along the second channel 1312.

[0054] In some embodiments, the limiting member 132 includes a first end 132a and a second end 132b opposite to each other. The second end 132b is provided with a first thread, and the blocking member 134 is provided with a second thread that mates with the first thread. The second end 132b can be threadedly connected to the blocking member 134, so that the limiting member 132 can be locked in a second state. When it is necessary to release the abutment of the limiting member 132 against the fastener 140 for a period of time, the limiting member 132 can be pressed into the second channel 1312, and its second end 132b can be threadedly connected to the blocking member 134. The limiting member 132 can be temporarily held in the second state, which facilitates the tightening or loosening of the fastener 140.

[0055] In this embodiment, when the limiting member 132 is pressed into the second channel 1312, the elastic member 133 is in a compressed state. Of course, as another embodiment of the present invention, the elastic member 133 can also be omitted. When the limiting member 132 switches between the first state and the second state, the feeding amount of the second end 132b of the limiting member 132 in the blocking member 134 can be adjusted to make the limiting member 132 extend or retract into the base 131.

[0056] In some embodiments, the first end 132a is provided with a mating structure F1 that can engage with an external tool, allowing the external tool to drive the limiting member 132 to rotate via the mating structure F1. The mating structure F1 is, for example, a groove structure whose shape matches the shape of the external tool. For example, the mating structure F1 is a straight-line extending or cross-shaped groove structure, and the external tool is a screwdriver. When it is necessary to temporarily hold the limiting member 132 in the second state, simply connecting the external tool to the first end 132a and rotating it will achieve a threaded connection between the second end 132b and the blocking member 134.

[0057] In some embodiments, the second channel 1312 communicates with the side of the base 131 away from the fastener 140 and has a second opening K2 on that surface, to which a blocking member 134 is detachably connected. The blocking member 134 is, for example, threadedly connected to the second opening K2.

[0058] In this embodiment, the base 131 has a first surface S1 facing the fastener 140 and a second surface S2 away from the fastener 140. The second channel 1312 has a first opening K1 located on the first surface S1 and a second opening K2 located on the second surface S2. In a first state, a first end 132a protrudes from the first opening K1 and is disposed on the first surface S1. A blocking member 134 is detachably connected to the second opening K2.

[0059] like Figures 1 to 3 In some embodiments, the shaft 110 is provided with a first locking structure 111, and the first channel 1311 is provided with a second locking structure W1. The second locking structure W1 cooperates with the first locking structure 111 to restrict the rotational movement of the limiting component 130 relative to the shaft 110. In some embodiments, the first channel 1311 is a circular channel, and the first locking structure 111 and the second locking structure W1 are matching planar structures. In other embodiments, the first locking structure 111 and the second locking structure W1 can be mating structures of other shapes, such as one being a protruding structure and the other a recessed structure. This invention also provides a kitchen appliance, such as... Figure 1 The kitchen equipment includes a cooking container 200 and a rotating mechanism applied to the kitchen equipment according to any of the foregoing embodiments, the rotating mechanism being disposed within the cooking container 200. The rotating mechanism includes a shaft 110, a rotating assembly, and fasteners 140. The rotating assembly includes a rotating member 120 and a limiting assembly 130 disposed on the outer periphery of the shaft 110. The limiting assembly 130 includes a base 131 and a limiting member 132 disposed on the base 131, the limiting member 132 having a first state in which at least a portion of its structure protrudes from the surface of the base 131.

[0060] The rotating component 120 may include a mounting portion 121, through which it is connected to the limiting assembly 130 and the shaft 110. The rotating component 120 is, for example, a rotatable part in kitchen equipment such as a mixing component or a scraper. A fastener 140 is connected to the shaft 110, applying a tightening force to the rotating assembly and the shaft to allow the rotating component 120 to rotate with the shaft 110. The limiting member 132 abuts against the fastener 140 to limit the fastener 140 in at least one direction of rotation relative to the shaft 110, including the direction in which the fastener 140 rotates loosely relative to the shaft 110.

[0061] According to an embodiment of the present invention, a kitchen device includes a rotating mechanism, wherein the rotating mechanism includes a shaft 110 and a rotating assembly, the rotating assembly includes a rotating member 120 and a limiting assembly 130 disposed on the outer periphery of the shaft 110, and a fastener 140 applies a fastening force to the rotating assembly and the shaft so that the rotating member 120 can rotate with the shaft 110. The limiting component 130 includes a base 131 and a limiting member 132 disposed on the base 131. The limiting member 132 has a first state in which at least a portion of its structure protrudes from the surface of the base 131. After the fastener 140 applies a tightening force to the rotating component, the limiting member 132 abuts against the fastener 140 to limit the fastener 140 in at least one rotation direction relative to the shaft 110. The at least one rotation direction includes the direction in which the fastener 140 loosens relative to the shaft 110. Therefore, the fastener 140 no longer loosens relative to the shaft 110. The fastener 140 can stably maintain its tightening ability on the rotating component 120, ensuring that the rotating component 120 will not loosen, thereby avoiding problems such as abnormal noise and uncontrollable cooking effect caused by the loosening of the rotating component 120 after long-term use.
