If there is a description of "first" or "second", it is only used for the purpose of distinguishing the technical features, and cannot be understood as indicating or implying the relative importance or implicitly indicating the number of the indicated technical features or implicitly indicating the order of the indicated technical features.

[0035] In the description of the present invention, unless otherwise clearly defined, terms such as setting, installing, connecting, etc. should be understood in a broad sense, and technicians in the relevant technical field can reasonably determine the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention based on the specific content of the technical solution.

[0036] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 According to the embodiment of the first aspect of the utility model, the slag collecting container includes a container body 100 and a slag guiding member 200. The container body 100 is provided with a slag inlet groove and a receiving groove 110 connected to the slag inlet groove. The container body 100 has a first end 101 and a second end 102 arranged opposite to each other. The slag inlet groove is located at the first end 101, and the slag inlet groove is used to connect to the slag discharge port 411 of the juicer. The receiving groove 110 is used to store slag. The slag guiding member 200 is provided on the container body 100. The slag guiding member 200 is partially located on the slag inlet path of the slag inlet groove to guide the slag to flow to the second end 102, which can prevent the slag from accumulating at the first end 101 of the container body 100, so as to disperse the slag to the surroundings in the receiving groove 110 without dispersing the slag by external force, which can be convenient for users to use.

[0037] Specifically, when the residue is discharged from the residue discharge port 411 of the juicer, the residue falls into the residue inlet trough, and the residue in the residue inlet trough moves downward into the receiving trough 110. Since the residue guiding member 200 is located on the residue inlet path of the residue inlet trough, part of the residue directly falls into the area of ​​the receiving trough 110 close to the first end 101, and the other part of the residue falls into the area of ​​the receiving trough 110 close to the second end 102 under the guidance of the residue guiding member 200. This can prevent the residue from accumulating at the first end 101 of the container body 100, so as to disperse the residue to the surrounding areas of the receiving trough 110 without the need to disperse the residue by external force, which is convenient for users to use.

[0038] It should be noted that, refer to Figure 2 As shown, the cross-section of the receiving groove 110 is generally a rectangular structure, a circular structure, a square structure or an elliptical structure, etc., which will not be described in detail here.

[0039] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 In some embodiments of the present invention, the distance between the bottom wall of the slag inlet trough and the side wall of the containing trough 110 away from the slag inlet trough decreases from top to bottom, which can facilitate the slag to fall into the slag inlet trough.

[0040] Specifically, the bottom wall of the slag inlet trough and the bottom wall of the receiving trough 110 are both planar structures, the bottom wall of the slag inlet trough and the bottom wall of the receiving trough 110 are inclined, and the angle between the bottom wall of the slag inlet trough and the bottom wall of the receiving trough 110 is an acute angle, and the slag in the slag inlet trough can fall into the receiving trough 110 under the weight of the slag itself, which can facilitate the slag to fall into the slag inlet trough. As another embodiment, the bottom wall of the slag inlet trough can also be concave to form a curved surface structure, which can facilitate the slag to fall into the slag inlet trough, which will not be described in detail here.

[0041] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 In some embodiments of the utility model, the slag guiding member 200 is arranged on one side of the slag inlet trough, and the slag guiding member 200 is provided with a slag guiding surface 210. Along the direction of the side wall of the containing trough 110 away from the slag inlet trough, the distance between the slag guiding surface 210 and the other side opposite to the slag inlet trough gradually decreases, so that part of the slag can be guided to fall into the area of ​​the containing trough 110 close to the second end 102.

[0042] Specifically, the slag guiding surface 210 is a planar structure, and the angle between the slag guiding surface 210 and the side wall of the slag inlet trough is an obtuse angle. When the slag flows into the slag inlet trough, the slag has a certain speed and inertia. When part of the slag contacts the slag guiding surface 210, the movement direction of the slag changes. The slag can move in a direction close to the second end 102, and can guide part of the slag to fall into the area of ​​the containing trough 110 close to the second end 102.

[0043] It should be noted that the slag guiding surface 210 may also be a curved surface structure, which will not be described in detail here.

[0044] In some embodiments of the present invention, the minimum distance between the slag guiding surface 210 and the other side opposite to the slag inlet trough is L, and the width B of the slag inlet trough satisfies: 0.5B≤L≤0.8B, which can not only prevent the slag inlet trough from being blocked by slag, but also guide the slag to fall into the area of ​​the containing trough 110 near the second end 102.

[0045] Specifically, when L<0.5B, the width of the cross section of the slag feeding trough into the containing trough 110 is too small, resulting in a flow rate of the slag in the slag feeding trough being lower than a flow rate of the slag discharged from the slag discharge port 411. After long-term use, the slag in the slag feeding trough is easily accumulated and blocked, and falls to the outside of the slag collecting container. The user needs to manually clean the slag that falls to the outside of the slag collecting container, which affects the user's experience.

[0046] When L>0.8B, the width of the cross section of the slag feeding trough into the receiving trough 110 is too large, and only a small portion of the slag is guided by the slag guiding surface 210 to the area of ​​the receiving trough 110 close to the second end 102. The slag in the area of ​​the receiving trough 110 close to the first end 101 is still prone to obvious accumulation, which is not conducive to the dispersion of the slag to the area of ​​the receiving trough 110 close to the second end 102.

[0047] When 0.5B≤L≤0.8B, the slag inlet can be prevented from being blocked by slag, and the slag can be guided to fall into the area of ​​the containing groove 110 close to the second end 102 .

[0048] It should be noted that L can be equal to 0.5B, 0.55B, 0.6B, 0.65B, 0.7B, 0.75B, or 0.8B, and is not limited here.

[0049] Reference Figure 1 In some embodiments of the present invention, the lower end of the slag guide 200 extends to be connected with the bottom wall of the slag inlet trough. On the one hand, the gap between the lower end of the slag guide 200 and the bottom wall of the slag inlet trough can be eliminated to prevent slag from remaining in the above gap. On the other hand, the connection strength of the slag guide 200 can be improved, and the deformation of the slag guide 200 can be reduced, thereby increasing the service life of the slag collecting container.

[0050] In some embodiments of the present invention, the slag guide 200 and the container body 100 are an integrated structure, which can reduce the number of molds, thereby reducing the production cost of the molds, and thus reducing the production cost of the slag collecting container.

[0051] Specifically, the slag guide 200 and the container body 100 can be integrally formed by injection molding, which can reduce the number of molds, thereby reducing the production cost of the molds, thereby reducing the production cost of the slag collecting container.

[0052] Of course, in some specific embodiments, the slag guide 200 and the container body 100 may also be connected by clamping, screwing or welding, wherein the welding method includes but is not limited to resistance welding, ultrasonic welding or laser welding.

[0053] Reference Figures 4 to 9 The juicer according to the second aspect of the present invention comprises a base assembly 300, a juice extraction assembly and a residue collection container according to the first aspect of the present invention, wherein the base assembly 300 has a power output end 310, the juice extraction assembly comprises a juice extraction barrel 410 and a screw body 420, the screw body 420 is connected to the power output end 310, the screw body 420 is accommodated in the juice extraction barrel 410, the juice extraction barrel 410 is arranged on the base assembly 300, and the juice extraction barrel 410 has a juice outlet and a residue discharge outlet 411, and the residue collection container is at least partially located below the residue discharge outlet 411.

[0054] By adopting the slag collecting container of the first aspect embodiment of the utility model, when the slag is discharged from the slag discharge port 411 of the juicer, the slag falls into the slag inlet trough, and the slag in the slag inlet trough moves downward into the receiving groove 110. Since the slag guiding member 200 is located on the slag inlet path of the slag inlet trough, part of the slag directly falls into the area close to the first end 101 of the receiving groove 110, and the other part of the slag falls into the area close to the second end 102 of the receiving groove 110 under the guidance of the slag guiding member 200. This can prevent the slag from accumulating at the first end 101 of the container body 100, so as to disperse the slag to the surrounding areas of the receiving groove 110 without the need to disperse the slag by external force, which is convenient for users to use.

[0055] It should be noted that the juicer is a horizontal juicer, the axial direction of the screw body 420 is arranged in the horizontal direction, the slag discharge port 411 is arranged at the end of the juicer barrel 410 away from the power output end 310, and the first end 101 and the second end 102 are arranged opposite to each other along the axial direction of the screw body 420, and the second end 102 is close to the middle of the screw body 420, which can increase the volume of the containing tank 110 while satisfying the small overall volume of the juicer. As another embodiment, the first end 101 and the second end 102 can also be arranged opposite to each other along the width direction of the container body 100, which will not be described in detail here.

[0056] In some embodiments of the present invention, the base assembly 300 is provided with a receiving space 320, and the slag collecting container is slidably provided on the base assembly 300 to enter or exit the receiving space 320, so as to facilitate installation and removal of the slag collecting container.

[0057] Specifically, the slag collecting container can slide along the axial direction of the screw body 420 to enter or exit the accommodation space 320. When the user needs to clean the slag in the slag collecting container, the slag collecting container can be driven to move in a direction away from the power output end 310 to make the slag collecting container exit the accommodation space 320, so that the user can pour out and clean the slag in the slag collecting container. When the user has finished cleaning, the slag collecting container can be pushed into the accommodation space 320 in a direction close to the power output end 310, which can be convenient for the user to use later.

[0058] Of course, in some specific implementations, the slag collecting container may also be rotatably disposed on the machine base assembly 300, which is not limited here.

[0059] Reference Figure 3 , Figure 8 In some embodiments of the present invention, a guide structure is provided between the container body 100 and the base assembly 300 , which can guide the container body 100 so that the container body 100 moves along the axial direction of the screw body 420 .

[0060] Reference Figure 3 , Figure 8 In some embodiments of the utility model, the guide structure includes a guide protrusion 330 provided on the base assembly 300 and a guide groove 130 provided on the container body 100. The guide protrusion 330 is accommodated in the guide groove 130 and can abut against the side wall of the guide groove 130, so as to guide the container body 100 so that the container body 100 can move axially along the screw body 420.

[0061] Specifically, the guide groove 130 has a first opening 131 and a second opening 132. The first opening 131 is located on the side of the slag collecting container facing the power output end 310, and the second opening 132 is located on the side of the slag collecting container facing the bottom. The guide protrusion 330 can enter the guide groove 130 through the first opening 131. By setting the second opening 132, the mold structure can be simplified to facilitate the processing and manufacturing of the guide groove 130.

[0062] In addition, two opposite sides of the guide protrusion 330 are respectively connected to opposite side walls of the guide groove 130 , and can guide the container body 100 so that the container body 100 moves along the axial direction of the screw body 420 .

[0063] It should be noted that the positions of the guide groove 130 and the guide protrusion 330 can also be interchanged, that is, the guide groove 130 is arranged on the base assembly 300, and the guide protrusion 330 is arranged on the container body 100, which will not be repeated here.

[0064] It should be pointed out that the guide structure can also be a structure in which a waist-shaped groove and a guide pin cooperate. The guide pin is arranged on the base assembly 300, and the waist-shaped groove is arranged on the bottom of the container body 100. The guide pin is accommodated in the waist-shaped groove and can be connected to the side wall of the waist-shaped groove, and can also guide the container body 100, which is not limited here.

[0065] The technical features of the above-described embodiments may be arbitrarily combined. To make the description concise, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above-described embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.

[0066] The embodiment is described in detail above in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, but the present invention is not limited to the above embodiment, and various changes can be made within the knowledge scope of ordinary technicians in the technical field without departing from the present purpose.
