Description

Technical Field

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

[0002] In some food processing machines, buttons are provided on the panel of the host, and there is a risk of water leakage at the buttons. For example, the utility model with application number 202123070653.1 discloses a food processing machine with good waterproof performance, wherein a knob button structure is provided on the panel of the host, and the knob button structure includes a sealing ring, which is sleeved on the knob and located at the periphery of the mounting hole and is in sealing contact with the button.

[0003] However, the sealing ring can achieve a certain sealing effect, but the button is a movable part, and the sealing ring interferes with the movement of the button to a certain extent. In addition, the user frequently operates the button, causing the button to wear and damage the sealing ring, resulting in the problem of sealing failure. In addition, the panel is arranged horizontally, and the host is equipped with a control component located below the panel. If water enters the button part, the water entering the button will flow along the drain hole to the top of the panel and cannot be effectively discharged, causing water accumulation above the panel. The host is still at risk of water entering, causing damage to the control panel.

[0004] During further research, the applicant designed a food processor in which the control assembly is vertically mounted on the front side of the main machine, and a water guide structure is arranged above the control assembly to prevent water from entering the keypad. However, the existing water guide structure is complex, resulting in a complex structure of the entire machine and increased costs. Utility Model Content

[0005] The utility model provides a waterproof food processing machine, which solves the technical problem of easy water accumulation at the keys of the food processing machine on the basis of simplifying the whole machine structure and reducing the production cost through the naturally formed structural features of keys and installation grooves.

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

[0007] The utility model provides a waterproof food processing machine, comprising a main machine and a crushing component, the main machine comprising a casing, a cover hinged to the casing and a button for controlling the opening and closing of the cover, the casing and the cover enclose an assembly cavity, the crushing component is installed in the assembly cavity, a mounting groove for installing the button is provided on the top of the side wall of the casing, the cover is provided with a lock hole, the button is provided with a lock tongue, a groove wall of the mounting groove is penetrated with a through hole so that the lock tongue cooperates with the lock hole, and the through hole extends downward to form a drain port.

[0008] The food processing machine provided by the utility model is provided with a casing and a cover which enclose an assembly cavity and a button for controlling the opening and closing of the cover on the main machine, and the crushing component is installed in the assembly cavity, so as to realize the full-wrapped processing of the crushing component, so as to reduce the noise transmitted outward during the processing of the crushing component, and reduce the working noise of the whole machine. By providing a mounting groove on the top of the side wall of the casing, the activity space and installation space of the button are provided. When the cover is closed in place, the lock tongue of the button passes through the perforation and cooperates with the lock hole, so that the cover and the casing are firmly covered to form a closed assembly cavity. Since the perforation is set on the groove wall of the installation groove, the perforation is used to extend downward to form a drainage port. When the user accidentally drops water into the installation groove when operating the button, the water dropped into the installation groove can be discharged along the drainage port, and the water flow is prevented from accumulating in the installation groove, and the spring in the button is prevented from rusting. Since a control device is generally set below the installation groove, the water in the installation groove is discharged from the installation groove to prevent the water flow from flowing to the control device, and the control device is prevented from being ineffective and damaged by water ingress. The drain port is formed by directly extending the perforation, and there is no need to set up an additional water-conducting structure or set through holes in other parts of the casing. While achieving effective drainage, it avoids causing structural complexity, thereby simplifying the overall structure and reducing production costs.

[0009] In a preferred embodiment, a rib extending circumferentially around the pulverizing assembly is provided on the inner side of the casing, and the cover is supported on the rib when the cover is closed, and the rib is arranged lower than the drain outlet.

[0010] By setting the ribs, on the one hand, the ribs support the machine cover so that the cover and the casing are stably closed; on the other hand, the ribs are set lower than the drain outlet, and the water flow in the installation groove is blocked by the ribs after flowing out of the drain outlet, which can prevent the water flow from directly entering the bottom of the assembly cavity along the side wall of the assembly area and then damaging the motor and other electrical components. On the basis of preventing water accumulation in the installation groove, the waterproofness of the inside of the main unit is further improved.

[0011] In a preferred embodiment, a drainage groove is provided on the upper surface of the retaining edge, and a notch is also provided on the top of the side wall of the casing, the inlet end of the drainage groove is close to directly below the drain port, and the outlet end of the drainage groove extends to communicate with the notch.

[0012] A drainage groove is provided on the upper surface of the retaining edge, with the inlet end of the drainage groove close to directly below the drain outlet. The drainage groove can receive the water flowing out of the drain outlet for temporary storage and drainage. Since the outlet end of the drainage groove is extended to be connected with the notch, the water can flow out of the casing from the notch along the drainage groove and flow out along the outer wall of the casing, thereby preventing the water from staying above the retaining edge for a long time and causing cleaning troubles for the user or causing odor, etc., and the structure is reliable.

[0013] In a preferred embodiment, the crushing assembly is detachably mounted in the assembly cavity, two handles are protruding from the side of the crushing assembly, two handles are provided in the notch corresponding to the handles, and the handles are limited in the notch.

[0014] The crushing component can be detachably installed in the assembly cavity, which is convenient for users to take and put flexibly. When preparing thick slurry, the crushing component can be removed to pour the slurry to prevent the discharge valve from being blocked. The crushing component can also be disassembled and cleaned, which is thorough and hygienic to use. The crushing component is provided with two handles, and the notch is provided corresponding to the handle. The notch not only serves to discharge the water flow, but also serves to limit the handle and mark the orientation when the user installs the crushing component. The notch integrates multiple functions, simplifies the structure of the whole machine, has a reliable structure, and enhances the user experience. Generally, the notch is set on the side of the main machine, so as to avoid the water flow passing through the control device on the front side of the main machine after the notch is drained. The setting position is reasonable, the structure is ingenious, and the practicability is strong.

[0015] In a preferred embodiment, a water absorbing member is provided on the upper surface of the retaining edge.

[0016] A water absorbent is provided on the upper surface of the retaining edge, which can absorb a small amount of water and evaporate it at room temperature or by the radiant heat of the crushing assembly, thereby avoiding the formation of water flow and saving the user the trouble of cleaning the water flow on the retaining edge separately.

[0017] In a preferred embodiment, a sunken step is provided on the top of the side wall of the casing, and the food processor further comprises a covering member arranged on the outside of the casing, the covering member and the step form the mounting groove, and a water retaining structure is provided between the outer end of the step and the covering member.

[0018] The step and the cover together form a mounting groove, which facilitates the installation of the button and improves the assembly efficiency. Moreover, on this basis, a water retaining structure is provided between the outer end of the step and the cover to avoid water leakage at the matching gap between the cover and the step, so as to prevent water from flowing downward to the control device and causing damage to the control device.

[0019] In a preferred embodiment, the water retaining structure is a water absorbing member;

[0020] Alternatively, the water retaining structure comprises convex ribs and grooves that are plug-fitted;

[0021] Alternatively, the water retaining structure is sealing silica gel.

[0022] The water retaining structure adopts a water absorbing part, which can effectively avoid the formation of water flow and reduce the risk of water flowing to the control component. The water retaining structure includes a plug-in convex rib and a groove, which are used to extend the matching gap between the step and the cover, and at the same time play a limiting role, and the structure is highly practical. The water retaining structure is a sealing silicone, which effectively improves the sealing of the matching gap between the step and the cover. Therefore, no matter which water retaining structure is used, it can effectively block the matching gap between the step and the cover to prevent water from flowing through the gap.

[0023] In a preferred embodiment, the food processor also includes a control device, which includes a display panel vertically installed on the outside of the casing and a control board arranged between the display panel and the casing, the display panel forms the cover, and the control board is located below the water retaining structure.

[0024] By arranging a display panel vertically installed on the outside of the casing, compared with a horizontal arrangement, it is effectively prevented that water flows directly above the display panel to affect the display effect or operation reliability. The display panel forms a covering member, integrates functions, simplifies the overall structure, and reduces production costs.

[0025] In a preferred embodiment, the button includes a keycap that can move up and down, a return spring vertically abutted between the keycap and the step, a lock tongue piece that cooperates with the keycap, a key bracket arranged on the outside of the lock tongue piece, and a second spring laterally abutted between the lock tongue piece and the button, the lock tongue is located at the inner end of the lock tongue piece, and the key bracket forms the covering piece.

[0026] The second spring is limited by the key bracket, so that the key cap and the lock tongue member can move reliably to complete the locking and unlocking actions. At the same time, the key bracket is used to form a covering member, so that the numerous parts and complex structure caused by the additional setting of the covering member are avoided, thereby simplifying the overall machine structure and helping to reduce the production cost of the overall machine.

[0027] In a preferred embodiment, a visible window located below the mounting groove and a control panel arranged below the visible window are also installed on the side of the casing, and the visible window includes a vertically extending window body and a window frame extending outward around the edge of the window body, and the window frame blocks the top of the control panel.

[0028] By setting a visual window, the internal working status of the crushing component can be visualized to improve the user experience. The visual window includes a vertically extending window body and a window frame extending outward around the edge of the window. The window frame blocks the top of the control panel to provide waterproof shielding for the control panel to prevent water from flowing to the control panel and causing damage to the control panel.

[0044] like Figure 1-6 As shown, the utility model provides a waterproof food processing machine, such as Figure 1As shown, the main machine 10 and the crushing assembly 20 are included. The main machine 10 includes a housing 11, a cover 12 hinged to the housing 11, and a button 13 for controlling the opening and closing of the cover 12. The housing 11 and the cover 12 form an assembly cavity 101. The crushing assembly 20 is installed in the assembly cavity 101. The top of the side wall of the housing 11 is provided with an installation groove 111 for installing the button 13. The cover 12 is provided with a lock hole 121. The button 13 is provided with a lock tongue 130. The groove wall of the installation groove 111 is penetrated with a through hole 112 so that the lock tongue 130 cooperates with the lock hole 121. Figure 2 , 3 As shown, the through hole 112 extends downward to form a drain port 113 .

[0045] like Figure 1 As shown, the food processing machine provided by the utility model also includes a water tank 60, a slurry receiving cup 61, and a residual water box 62 installed on the main machine 10. The water tank automatically supplies water to the crushing component for pulping and cleaning. The crushing component also includes a drain valve. When the pulping is completed, the drain valve is opened to discharge the slurry into the slurry receiving cup 61. When the cleaning is completed, the drain valve is opened to discharge the residual cleaning water into the residual water box 62.

[0046] In addition, it should be noted that the food processing machine provided by the utility model does not limit the structure of the grinding component. For example, the grinding component includes a grinding cup and a cup cover, a motor is fixedly installed inside the main machine, and the grinding cup is separately and detachably installed in the assembly cavity or the grinding cup is fixed in the assembly cavity; or, the grinding component includes a grinding cup, a cup cover, and a motor fixed to the bottom of the grinding cup, and the grinding cup and the motor are disassembled from the assembly cavity together; or, the grinding component includes a grinding cup, the top of the grinding cup is open, and the opening is sealed by a machine cover.

[0047] The food processing machine provided by the utility model is provided with a casing 11 and a cover 12 which enclose an assembly cavity 101 and a button 13 for controlling the opening and closing of the cover 12 on a main body 10, and a crushing component 20 is installed in the assembly cavity 101, so as to realize full-wrapped processing of the crushing component 20, thereby reducing the noise transmitted to the outside during the processing of the crushing component 20 and reducing the working noise of the whole machine. By setting a mounting groove 111 on the top of the side wall of the casing 11, a movable space and an installation space for the button 13 are provided. When the cover 12 is closed in place, the lock tongue 130 of the button 13 passes through the through hole 112 and cooperates with the lock hole 121, so that the cover 12 and the casing 11 are firmly covered to form a closed assembly cavity 101. Since the through hole 112 is set through the groove wall of the mounting groove 111, the through hole 112 is used to extend downward to form a drain port 113. When the user accidentally drops water into the mounting groove 111 when operating the button 13, the water falling into the mounting groove 111 can be discharged along the drain port 113, and water is prevented from accumulating in the mounting groove 111, thereby preventing the spring in the button 13 from rusting. Since a control device is generally set below the mounting groove 111, the water in the mounting groove 111 is drained away from the mounting groove 111 to prevent the water from flowing to the control device, thereby preventing the control device from being inactivated and damaged by water ingress. The drain port 113 is formed by directly extending the perforation 112, without the need to set up an additional water-conducting structure or set through holes in other parts of the housing 11. While achieving effective drainage, the structure is avoided from being complicated, thereby simplifying the overall structure and reducing production costs.

[0048] In a preferred embodiment, Figure 2 , Figure 3 As shown, a rib 114 extending circumferentially around the crushing assembly 20 is provided on the inner side of the casing 11 , and the cover 12 is supported on the rib 114 after being closed, and the rib 114 is arranged below the drain port 113 .

[0049] More preferably, the upper surface of the retaining edge 114 is provided with a drainage groove 115, combined with Figure 1 , Figure 3 , Figure 6 As shown, a notch 116 is further provided at the top of the side wall of the housing 11 , the inlet end of the drainage groove 115 is close to directly below the drainage port 113 , and the outlet end of the drainage groove 115 extends to communicate with the notch 116 .

[0050] More specifically, the crushing assembly 20 is detachably mounted in the assembly chamber 101, and combined with Figure 1 As shown, two handles 201 are protrudingly provided on the side of the crushing assembly 20 , and two notches 116 are provided corresponding to the handles 201 , and the handles 201 are limited in the notches 116 .

[0051] By setting the retaining edge 114, on the one hand, the retaining edge 114 supports the machine cover 12, so that the cover 12 and the casing 11 are stably closed. On the other hand, the retaining edge 114 is set lower than the drain port 113. The water flow in the installation groove 111 is blocked by the retaining edge 114 after flowing out from the drain port 113, which can prevent the water flow from directly entering the bottom of the assembly cavity 101 along the side wall of the assembly area and then damaging the motor and other electrical components. On the basis of preventing water accumulation in the installation groove 111, the waterproof property of the inside of the main unit 10 is further improved.

[0052] like Figure 6 As shown, a drainage groove 115 is provided on the upper surface of the retaining edge 114, and the inlet end of the drainage groove 115 is close to the bottom of the drain outlet 113. The drainage groove 115 can receive the water flowing out of the drain outlet 113 for temporary storage and drainage. Since the outlet end 1151 of the drainage groove 115 extends to be connected with the notch 116, the water can flow out of the housing 11 through the notch 116 along the drainage groove 115 and flow out along the outer wall of the housing 11, thereby preventing the water from staying above the retaining edge 114 for a long time and causing cleaning troubles for users or causing odors, etc., and the structure is reliable.

[0053] Since the crushing assembly 20 is detachably installed in the assembly cavity 101, it is convenient for users to take and put it flexibly. When preparing thick slurry, the crushing assembly 20 can be removed to pour the slurry to prevent the slurry discharge valve from being blocked, and the crushing assembly 20 can be disassembled and cleaned, which is thorough and hygienic to use. The crushing assembly 20 is provided with two handles 201, and the notch 116 is provided corresponding to the handle 201. The notch 116 not only plays the role of discharging water flow, but also plays the role of limiting the handle 201 and marking the orientation when the user installs the crushing assembly 20. The notch 116 integrates multiple functions, simplifies the structure of the whole machine, has a reliable structure, and improves the user experience. Generally, the notch 116 is set on the side of the main machine 10, so as to prevent the water flow from passing through the control device on the front side of the main machine 10 after the notch 116 is drained. The setting position is reasonable, the structure is ingenious, and the practicability is strong.

[0054] In fact, in addition to the drainage method of providing a drainage groove 115 above the retaining edge 114 in the present embodiment, in fact, in another preferred embodiment, an absorbent member, such as absorbent cotton, absorbent paper, etc., is provided on the upper surface of the retaining edge 114.

[0055] Optionally, the water absorbent is fixed on the upper surface of the retaining edge 114. After the water absorbent absorbs water, it evaporates and dries by using the room temperature or the radiation heat of the crushing assembly 20. Alternatively, the water absorbent is detachably mounted on the upper surface of the retaining edge 114 so that the user can remove it and wash it separately.

[0056] A water absorbent is provided on the upper surface of the retaining edge 114 to absorb a small amount of water, which evaporates at room temperature or by the radiant heat of the crushing assembly 20 to avoid forming a water flow, thus saving the user the trouble of cleaning the water flow on the retaining edge 114 separately.

[0057] It should be noted that the structure of providing the retaining edge 114 on the housing 11 can be applicable to the embodiment in which the crushing assembly 20 is fixed to the assembly cavity 101 or is detachably installed in the assembly cavity 101. In fact, in the embodiment in which the crushing assembly 20 can be removed from the assembly cavity 101, the retaining edge 114 may not be provided on the inner side of the housing 11. When the water in the installation groove 111 flows out through the drain port 113, it will flow downward along the side wall of the assembly cavity 101. A water outlet connected to the outside can be provided on the bottom wall of the assembly cavity 101 to realize the discharge of water.

[0058] The present invention does not limit the formation method of the mounting groove 111. For example, it can adopt any of the following implementation examples:

[0059] Implementation example 1, such as Figure 1-6 As shown, a sunken step 117 is provided on the top of the side wall of the casing 11. The food processor also includes a covering member arranged on the outside of the casing 11. The covering member and the step 117 form a mounting groove 111, and a water retaining structure is provided between the outer end of the step 117 and the covering member.

[0060] Specifically, Figure 5 As shown, the key 13 includes a keycap 131 that can move up and down, a return spring 132 vertically abutted between the keycap 131 and the step 117, a lock tongue piece 133 that cooperates with the keycap 131, a key bracket 134 arranged on the outside of the lock tongue piece 133, and a second spring 135 laterally abutted between the lock tongue piece 133 and the key 13, the lock tongue 130 is located at the inner end of the lock tongue piece 133, and the key bracket 134 forms a covering piece.

[0061] In this embodiment, the step 117 and the cover member together form the installation groove 111, which facilitates the installation of the key 13 and improves the assembly efficiency. Moreover, on this basis, a water retaining structure is provided between the outer end of the step 117 and the cover member to avoid water leakage at the matching gap between the cover member and the step 117, and to prevent the water from flowing downward to the control device and causing damage to the control device. The second spring 135 is limited by the key bracket 134, so that the key cap 131 and the lock tongue member 133 can move reliably to complete the locking and unlocking actions. At the same time, the key bracket 134 is used to form a cover member, so as to avoid the numerous parts and complex structure caused by the additional setting of the cover member, thereby simplifying the whole machine mechanism and helping to reduce the production cost of the whole machine.

[0062] Optionally, the food processor further includes a display panel 30 vertically mounted on the outside of the housing 11 and a control panel disposed between the display panel 30 and the housing 11, and the display panel 30 covers the outside of the key bracket 134 to form a full-screen effect. Of course, the key bracket 134 and the outside of the display panel 30 can also be aligned.

[0063] It should be noted that if Figure 5 As shown, in a preferred embodiment of the utility model, the water retaining structure can optionally be a water absorbent member 50, such as absorbent cotton; of course, the water retaining structure can also be sealing silicone; or, the water retaining structure includes plug-fitting ribs and grooves, for example, a groove is provided at the outer end of the step 117, and a rib is provided on the covering member.

[0064] The water retaining structure adopts a water absorbing member, which can effectively avoid the formation of water flow and reduce the risk of water flow to the control component. The water retaining structure includes a plug-in mating rib and a groove, which are used to extend the matching gap between the step 117 and the cover, and at the same time play a limiting role, and the structure is highly practical. The water retaining structure is a sealing silicone, which effectively improves the sealing of the matching gap between the step 117 and the cover. Therefore, no matter which water retaining structure is used, it can effectively block the matching gap between the step 117 and the cover to prevent water from flowing through the gap.

[0065] Implementation Example 2, such as Figure 7 As shown, the difference between this embodiment example and embodiment example 1 lies in the structure of the covering member. Specifically, the food processor further includes a control device, which includes a display panel 30 vertically installed on the outside of the casing 11 and a control board 31 arranged between the display panel 30 and the casing 11. The display panel 30 forms the covering member, and the control board 31 is located below the water retaining structure.

[0066] That is, in this embodiment, a sunken step 117 is provided on the top of the side wall of the housing 11, the display panel 30 and the step 117 form a mounting groove 111 for mounting the button 13, and a water retaining structure is provided between the outer end of the step 117 and the display panel. The water retaining structure can be selected from the structure provided in Embodiment 1.

[0067] More preferably, in this implementation example, Figure 7 As shown, a visual window 40 located below the mounting groove 111 is also installed on the side of the housing 11, and the control panel 31 is located below the visual window 40. The visual window 40 includes a vertically extending window body 41 and a window frame 42 extending outward around the edge of the window body 41. The window frame 42 blocks the control panel to further prevent water flow from damaging the control panel.

[0068] By arranging the display panel 30 vertically mounted on the outside of the housing 11, compared with the horizontal arrangement, it is effectively prevented that the water flow directly stays on the display panel 30 to affect the display effect or operation reliability. The display panel 30 forms a cover, the function is integrated, the whole structure is simplified, and the production cost is reduced. It can be understood that in this embodiment, the key bracket 134 in the embodiment 1 can be omitted to simplify the structure.

[0069] It should be noted that, in fact, the method of using the visual window to shield the control panel is not limited to the implementation in this embodiment, and it can be implemented separately. By setting the visual window 40, the internal working state of the crushing assembly 20 can be visualized to improve the user experience. The visual window 40 includes a vertically extending window body 41 and a window frame 42 extending outward around the edge of the window 41. The window frame 42 shields the control panel to waterproof the control panel and prevent water from flowing to the control panel and damaging the control panel.

[0070] Implementation Example 3: In this implementation example, the top of the side wall of the housing 11 is directly thickened to form a thickened portion, and the top of the thickened portion is recessed to directly form a complete installation groove 111.
