Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of kitchen waste processors, and particularly relates to a kitchen waste processor with an automatic flip cover. Background Technique

[0002] The household kitchen waste processor is a modern environmental protection household appliance, which is specially designed to process the organic waste generated in the kitchen. By means of microbial decomposition, stirring the kitchen waste, heating and evaporating the moisture of the kitchen waste, etc., the volume of the processed kitchen waste is reduced or used as organic fertilizer for green plants to absorb and reuse. A large amount of gas will be generated during the drying and decomposition process of the kitchen waste processor. This gas not only has an odor, but may also carry harmful substances such as bacteria. If the gas is directly discharged from the kitchen waste processor into the air, it will cause secondary pollution to the environment. Therefore, there are kitchen waste processors on the market that can handle odors.

[0003] The existing kitchen waste processors generally open the cover body by means of a screw cap type or a hinge type to observe or expose the inner cavity of the kitchen waste processor. However, there will be a certain temperature and odor in the inner cavity of the kitchen waste processor. When the user faces the cover body and opens the cover body by means of a screw cap type or a hinge type, the gas and heat will overflow upward, and the user's face or hand may come into contact with the gas and heat instantly. Therefore, it is necessary to spray a fungicide such as ethanol to prevent the spread of bacteria in the gas, or clean and cool the face and hand with water, resulting in a poor user experience. Therefore, it is necessary to develop a kitchen waste processor that can solve the problem that the body parts are easily exposed to the gas and heat overflowing after the cover body is opened, so as to better improve the user experience.

[0025] Figure 7 This is a partially enlarged view of the sliding assembly of a kitchen waste processor with an automatic flip cover of the present utility model. Detailed implementation manners

[0026] The following will describe the implementation manners of the present utility model in detail with reference to the drawings.

[0027] As Figures 1 to 7 shown, a kitchen waste processor with an automatic flip cover includes a housing 1 and a cover body 2 hinged at one end to the housing 1. The side of the housing 1 is provided with an induction component 3, a control member electrically connected to the induction component 3, and a limit opening 11. The cover body 2 is provided with a cover inner cavity 20, a cover inner cavity opening 201, a clamping end 21 extending from the cover inner cavity 20 to the outside of the cover inner cavity opening 201 and capable of extending into the limit opening 11, a sliding assembly 22 for driving the clamping end 21 to slide, an elastic component 23 for driving the sliding assembly 22 to rebound, and an electromagnet component 24 electrically connected to the control member. The electromagnet component 24 is provided with a driving end 241 that can abut against the sliding assembly 22;

[0028] When the cover body 2 is closed on the housing 1 and the induction component 3 detects an obstacle in the induction area, the control member drives the driving end 241 to push the sliding assembly 22 to slide, and the clamping end 21 disengages from the limit opening 11, so that the cover body 2 rotates relative to the housing 1;

[0029] Or the control member drives the driving end 241 to disengage from the sliding assembly 22 to slide, and the elastic component 23 drives the clamping end 21 to disengage from the limit opening 11 so that the cover body 2 rotates relative to the housing 1.

[0030] The present utility model detects obstacles through the induction component and automatically controls the opening of the cover body, avoiding the user from directly contacting the gas and heat that may contain odors and bacteria when manually opening the cover body, thereby reducing the health risk. The present utility model drives the sliding assembly to move by the control member driving the electromagnet component, so that the clamping end disengages from the limit opening, thereby realizing the rotational opening of the cover body relative to the housing. During the automatic opening of the cover body, since the direct contact between the user and the gas and heat in the internal environment of the kitchen waste processor is reduced, the need for using fungicides or cleaning water is also indirectly reduced, which is beneficial to saving resources and protecting the environment.

[0031] After the cover body rotates relative to the housing, the electromagnet assembly resets, the elastic component assembly drives the sliding component to rebound, and the engaging end resets. When the cover body closes relative to the housing, the engaging end abuts against the inner wall on the periphery of the limiting opening. The engaging end drives the sliding component to slide and drives the elastic component assembly to form an elastic deformation. When the engaging end extends into the limiting opening, the elastic component assembly drives the sliding component to rebound and pushes the engaging end to be engaged in the limiting opening.

[0032] Optionally, in some other embodiments, when the cover body is opened, the driving end does not contact the sliding component, and the elastic component assembly pushes the sliding component to move away from the limiting opening so that the engaging end is always disengaged from the limiting opening. When the control member detects that the cover body has been installed on the housing, the control member controls the driving end to move and contact the sliding component. The sliding component drives the engaging end to extend into the limiting opening, the sliding component abuts against the elastic component assembly, and the driving end remains in contact with the sliding component.

[0033] As Figure 3 shown in a kind of automatic flip-up food waste processor, a positioning component 4 is arranged in the inner cavity 20 of the cover body. The positioning component 4 includes a first installation part 41 for accommodating the electromagnet assembly 24. The first installation part 41 is provided with a first accommodation cavity 411 for accommodating the electromagnet assembly 24 and a first positioning groove 412 for limiting the moving range of the driving end 241. The sliding component 22 includes a first abutting end 221 abutting against the driving end 241, and the moving direction of the driving end 241 is parallel to the moving direction of the engaging end 21. Further, as a preferred implementation manner of the present invention rather than a limitation, the first accommodation cavity provides a stable installation position for the electromagnet assembly, ensuring that the electromagnet assembly will not shake or shift during operation, thereby improving the stability and reliability of the overall structure. In addition, the first positioning groove can limit the moving range of the driving end, so that the driving end can accurately move along the specified direction when receiving the instruction of the control member, and then drive the sliding component and the engaging end to perform accurate operations, thereby ensuring the stability and accuracy of the cover body during the opening or closing process. The first abutting end of the sliding component directly abuts against the driving end of the electromagnet assembly, and the moving directions of the two are parallel. Such a setting can reduce the loss during the energy transfer process, improve the response speed and operation efficiency of the sliding component, and at the same time make the inner cavity of the cover body more compact, saving the internal space.

[0034] As Figures 3 to 7An automatic flip-up food waste processor as shown, the sliding component 22 includes a slider 222 connected to the engaging end 21. The positioning component 4 includes a second mounting portion 42 close to the slider 222. The second mounting portion 42 is provided with a second positioning groove 421 for limiting the slider 222. The first mounting portion 41 is provided with a first connection end 410, and the second mounting portion 42 is provided with a second connection end. The first connection end 410 cooperates with the second connection end so that the first mounting portion 41 and the second mounting portion 42 are fixedly connected. Further, as a preferred embodiment of the present invention rather than a limitation, through the cooperation of the slider and the second positioning groove, the trajectory of the sliding component during movement is limited, ensuring the accuracy and consistency of each action, effectively avoiding the shaking or deviation of the sliding component during operation, so as to ensure that the engaging end can accurately and reliably disengage from or enter the limiting opening, and improving the stability and reliability of the overall structure.

[0035] Optionally, in some embodiments, the second positioning groove and the inner wall of the cover body cavity form an up-and-down limiting manner so that the sliding component slides in a straight line direction.

[0036] Specifically, the first mounting portion and the second mounting portion are fixedly connected through the cooperation of the first connection end and the second connection end, which helps to reduce the loosening or deformation of components caused by vibration or external force, thereby improving the durability and reliability of the entire food waste processor. The fixed connection method between the first mounting portion and the second mounting portion is simple, which is convenient for installation and adjustment during the production and assembly process. At the same time, during maintenance or replacement of components, it can also be quickly and accurately disassembled and reinstalled, improving the maintenance efficiency and convenience.

[0037] Optionally, in some embodiments, the first connection end and the second connection end can be cooperated by means of threaded connection, snap connection, mortise and tenon connection, fastener connection, magnetic attraction connection, groove connection, etc.

[0038] Preferably, both the first connection end and the second connection end are connection holes and can be connected by fasteners such as screws and bolts passing through.

[0039] Such as Figure 7In the kitchen waste disposer with an automatic flip cover shown in the figure, the first abutting end 221 is provided with a guide groove 2211 for the driving end 241 to extend into, and a guide slope 2212 cooperating with the driving end 241. Further, as a preferred embodiment of the utility model but not a limitation, the guide groove enables the driving end to follow a precise motion trajectory, ensuring that the driving end can smoothly move along a preset path when pushing the sliding assembly, avoiding unnecessary deviation or shaking. The cooperation between the guide slope and the driving end further enhances the guiding effect, allowing the driving end to move more smoothly in the process of extending into the guide groove. At the same time, the guide slope can also play a role in buffering and vibration reduction to a certain extent, reducing the friction between the driving end and the first abutting end, thereby reducing wear in long-term use and extending the service life of the first abutting end and the driving end. Since the driving end is well guided and constrained during the movement, the noise generated by shaking or deviation is reduced.

[0040] Optionally, in some embodiments, when the driving end is located between the limiting opening and the first abutting end, when the first abutting end extends from bottom to top, the guiding slope extends and tilts from bottom to top in a direction away from the limiting opening.

[0041] Optionally, in some embodiments, when the driving end is located between the limiting opening and the first abutting end, when the first abutting end extends from top to bottom, the guiding slope extends and tilts from top to bottom in a direction away from the limiting opening.

[0042] Optionally, in some embodiments, when the first abutting end is located between the driving end and the limiting opening, when the first abutting end extends from bottom to top, the guiding slope extends and tilts from bottom to top toward the limiting opening.

[0043] Optionally, in some embodiments, when the first abutting end is located between the driving end and the limiting opening, when the first abutting end extends from top to bottom, the guiding slope extends and tilts from top to bottom toward the limiting opening.

[0044] like Figure 7 In the food waste disposer with an automatic flip cover shown in the figure, the second mounting portion 42 is provided with a fixing portion 422, the slider 222 is provided with a fixing connecting column 2221, one end of the elastic portion assembly 23 is connected to the fixing portion 422 and the other end is connected to the fixing connecting column 2221. Further, as a preferred embodiment of the utility model but not a limitation, the elastic portion assembly provides stable power support for the sliding and resetting of the slider through its elastic deformation and restoring force. The provision of the fixing portion and the fixing connecting column enables the elastic portion assembly to be firmly connected between the sliding assembly and the positioning assembly, forming a stable mechanical structure, which helps to reduce the loosening or deformation of components caused by vibration or external force.

[0045] Optionally, in some embodiments, the elastic component can be a spring or a torsion spring. The fixed connection column can be one or can be in one-to-one correspondence with the number of springs.

[0046] As Figure 6 Shown is a food waste processor with an automatic flip-up lid. The positioning component 4 is provided with a limit block 43 for positioning the first mounting portion 41 and a limit post 44 extending from the inner wall of the lid cavity 20 towards the second mounting portion 42. The second mounting portion 42 is provided with a second mounting portion mating end 423 that mates with the limit post 44. The first mounting portion 41 is located above the second mounting portion 42 and between the first abutting end 221 and the engaging end 21. Further, as a preferred embodiment of the present invention rather than a limitation, the setting of the limit block provides additional support and positioning for the first mounting portion, ensuring a stable position of the first mounting portion in the lid cavity. This stability not only helps reduce component loosening or displacement caused by vibration or external forces but also facilitates positioning during the installation process. By providing the limit post and the second mounting portion mating end, it can be ensured that the second mounting portion can be accurately aligned and connected to the lid cavity during the assembly process. This design reduces the assembly difficulty, improves the assembly efficiency, and reduces performance problems caused by assembly errors.

[0047] Optionally, the second mounting portion mating end is a connection hole, and the second mounting portion mating end is connected to the limit post through fasteners such as screws and bolts.

[0048] Additionally, designing the first mounting portion above the second mounting portion and between the first abutting end and the engaging end makes full use of the limited space in the lid cavity. At the same time, it also ensures smooth and coordinated movement among components such as the electromagnet assembly, the sliding assembly, and the engaging end.

[0049] As Figure 7The kitchen waste processor with an automatic flip cover shown in the figure, the fixed part 422 is provided with a fixed part body 4221, and a fixed part limiting end 4222 for limiting the elastic part assembly 23, the second mounting part 42 is provided with two and symmetrically arranged, the elastic part assembly 23 includes an elastic part body 231 sleeved on the outside of the fixed connecting column 2221, and an elastic part connecting end 232 connected to the elastic part body 231 and respectively connected to the two fixed parts 422. Further, as a preferred embodiment of the utility model but not limited, the fixed part limiting end effectively limits the displacement and shaking of the elastic part assembly during the telescopic process, so that the elastic part assembly can maintain a stable posture while providing a rebound force, and this stability not only prolongs the service life of the elastic part assembly, but also improves the reliability of the entire structure. Since the second mounting part is provided with two and symmetrically arranged, the elastic part assembly is connected to them respectively through two elastic part connecting ends, so as to achieve uniform distribution of force. This design reduces the risk of stress concentration and component damage caused by uneven force, and improves the durability of the overall structure.

[0050] like Figures 3 to 7 In the kitchen waste disposer with automatic flip cover shown in the figure, the cover body 2 is also provided with a cover body mounting opening 25, a button member 26 extending into the cover body mounting opening 25, the slider 222 is provided with a second abutting end 2222 abutting against the button member 26, a second elastic member 27 for driving the button member 26 to reset is provided between the button member 26 and the second abutting end 2222, the second abutting end 2222 is provided with an abutting inclined surface 22221, and the button member 26 is provided with a button member inclined surface 261 cooperating with the abutting inclined surface 22221. Further, as a preferred embodiment of the utility model but not a limitation, when the sensing component is not used, the user can drive the slider to move by pressing the button member, thereby realizing the opening operation of the cover body. The setting of the abutment slope and the button component slope helps to transmit the user's pressing force more efficiently, making the flip cover action more labor-saving and smooth, and reducing the noise and vibration generated during the operation. The button component can smoothly push the slider to move during the pressing process, reducing direct friction and impact, thereby reducing wear and extending the service life of the component. The second elastic component can make the button component rebound and reset, reducing failures caused by the button component getting stuck or failing to reset.

[0051] like Figures 3 to 7An automatic flip-up food waste processor as shown, the cover body 2 is provided with a cover body installation cavity communicating with the cover body installation opening 25, the button member 26 is provided with a button engaging end 262, the cover body installation cavity is provided with an installation cavity positioning groove 271 cooperating with the button engaging end 262, the button engaging end 262 can move up and down in the installation cavity positioning groove 271, the button member 26 is provided with a button member positioning post 263, the second elastic member 27 is sleeved outside the button member positioning post 263, and the button member 26, the first abutting end 221, and the second abutting end 222 enclose to form a limiting cavity 28 for limiting the second elastic member 27. Further, as a preferred embodiment of the present invention rather than a limitation, the cooperation setting of the button engaging end and the installation cavity positioning groove ensures the stable position of the button member in the cover body installation cavity, preventing the button member from shifting or shaking when subjected to external forces. Due to the limitation of the installation cavity positioning groove, the button member can only move up and down within a limited range, thus ensuring that the movement track of the button member is consistent with the expectation, and avoiding operation errors or failures caused by the deviation of the movement track of the button member.

[0052] In addition, the second elastic member sleeved outside the button member positioning post provides a certain damping feeling when the user presses the button member, enhancing the tactile feedback during operation, enabling the user to intuitively feel the response of the button, and enhancing the accuracy and comfort of the operation.

[0053] Furthermore, by enclosing the button member, the first abutting end, and the second abutting end to form a limiting cavity, the space inside the cover body is fully utilized. The limiting cavity effectively limits the deformation range of the second elastic member, preventing the second elastic member from being damaged due to excessive deformation. At the same time, the limiting cavity also plays a role in protecting the second elastic member, reducing misoperations or functional failures caused by foreign objects getting stuck.

[0054] As Figure 4 An automatic flip-up food waste processor as shown, the cover body 2 and the housing 1 are hinged by a hinge shaft, the housing 1 is provided with a window 5 for the induction component 3 to detect and sense, and the window 5 is located on one side or the opposite side of the hinge shaft. Further, as a preferred embodiment of the present invention rather than a limitation, the cover body and the housing are connected by a hinge shaft, enabling the cover body to be easily opened and closed. The design of the hinge shaft provides a stable support point for the connection between the cover body and the housing. Even in the case of frequent opening and closing, the hinge shaft can maintain the structural stability, preventing loosening or damage caused by long-term use.

[0055] Specifically, a window is provided on the housing for the induction component to detect and sense, enabling the induction component to directly and accurately obtain the signals to be detected.

[0056] Optionally, in some embodiments, the housing is in the shape of a cuboid, the window is located on the front of the housing, and the hinge shaft is located on the back of the housing.

[0057] Optionally, in some embodiments, the housing is in the shape of a cylinder, the window is located on the front of the housing, and the hinge shaft is located on the back of the housing.

[0058] Optionally, in some embodiments, the housing is in the shape of a cuboid, the window is located on the left or right side of the housing, and the hinge shaft is located on the back of the housing.

[0059] Optionally, in some embodiments, the housing is in the shape of a cylinder, the window is located on the left or right side of the housing, and the hinge shaft is located on the back of the housing.

The second mounting portion 42 is provided with a second mounting portion mating end 423 that cooperates with the limiting column 44. The first mounting portion 41 is located above the second mounting portion 42, and the first mounting portion 41 is located between the first abutting end 221 and the engaging end 21.

[0072] The second mounting portion mating end 423 is a connection hole, and the second mounting portion mating end 423 is connected to the limiting column 44 by a fastener such as a screw.

[0073] The fixing part 422 is provided with a fixing part body 4221 and a fixing part limiting end 4222 for limiting the elastic part assembly 23. There are two second mounting parts 42, which are symmetrically arranged. The elastic part assembly 23 includes an elastic part body 231 sleeved outside the fixed connection column 2221 and elastic part connection ends 232 connected to the elastic part body 231 and respectively connected to the two fixing parts 422.

[0074] The cover body 2 is further provided with a cover body mounting opening 25 and a button member 26 extending into the cover body mounting opening 25. The slider 222 is provided with a second abutting end 2222 abutting against the button member 26.

The button member 26, the first abutting end 221, and the second abutting end 2222 enclose a limiting cavity 28 for limiting the second elastic member 27.

[0076] The cover body 2 and the housing 1 are hinged by a hinge shaft. The housing 1 is provided with a window 5 for the induction component 3 to detect induction. The window 5 is located on the side opposite to the hinge shaft.

[0077] The housing 1 is arranged in a cuboid shape. The window 5 is located on the front surface of the housing 1, and the hinge shaft is located on the back surface of the housing 1.

[0078] In the present utility model, the control member drives the electromagnet component 24 to drive the sliding component 22 to move, so that the engaging end 21 disengages from the limiting opening 11, thereby realizing the rotational opening of the cover body 2 relative to the housing 1. During the automatic opening process of the cover body 2, since the direct contact between the user and the internal environment is reduced, the demand for using fungicides or cleaning water is also indirectly reduced, which is beneficial to saving resources and protecting the environment.

[0079] After the cover body 2 rotates relative to the housing 1, the electromagnet assembly 24 resets, the elastic component assembly 23 drives the sliding component 22 to rebound, and the engaging end 21 resets. When the cover body 2 closes relative to the housing 1, the engaging end 21 abuts against the inner wall on the circumferential side of the limiting opening 11. The engaging end 21 drives the sliding component 22 to slide and drives the elastic component assembly 23 to form an elastic deformation. When the engaging end 21 extends into the limiting opening 11, the elastic component assembly 23 drives the sliding component 22 to rebound and pushes the engaging end 21 to be engaged in the limiting opening 11.

[0080] The utility model detects obstacles through the induction component 3 and automatically controls the opening of the cover body 2, avoiding the user from directly contacting the gas and heat that may contain peculiar smell and bacteria when manually opening the cover body 2, thereby reducing the health risk.

[0081] Embodiment 2

[0082] The difference between Embodiment 2 and Embodiment 1 is that the control member drives the driving end 241 to disengage from the sliding component 22 and slide, and the elastic component assembly 23 drives the engaging end 21 to disengage from the limiting opening 11 so that the cover body 2 rotates relative to the housing 1.

[0083] When the cover body 2 is opened, the driving end 241 does not contact the sliding component 22. The elastic component assembly 23 pushes the sliding component 22 to move away from the limiting opening 11 so that the engaging end 21 is always disengaged from the limiting opening 11. When the control member detects that the cover body 2 has been installed on the housing 1, the control member controls the driving end 241 to move and contact the sliding component 22. The sliding component 22 drives the engaging end 21 to extend into the limiting opening 11. The sliding component 22 abuts against the elastic component assembly 23, and the driving end 241 remains in abutting contact with the sliding component 22. One end of the elastic component assembly 23 abuts against the inner wall of the inner cavity of the cover body and the other end abuts against the sliding component 22. The elastic component assembly 23 is located between the sliding component 22 and the limiting opening 11.

[0084] Embodiment 3

[0085] The difference between Embodiment 3 and Embodiment 1 is that the shape of the housing 1 is different. Specifically, the housing 1 is arranged in a cylindrical shape, the window 5 is located on the front of the housing 1, and the hinge shaft is located on the back of the housing.

[0086] Embodiment 4

[0087] The difference between Embodiment 4 and Embodiment 1 is that the elastic component assembly 23 is different. In this embodiment, the elastic component assembly 23 adopts a spring. There are two second installation parts 42 and they are symmetrically arranged. There are two fixed connection columns 2221. There are two elastic component assemblies 23. One end of the elastic component assembly abuts against the fixed connection column 2221 and the other end abuts against the fixing part 422.

[0088] The above only further illustrates the technical content of the present utility model by way of examples to facilitate easier understanding by readers, but it does not mean that the implementation modes of the present utility model are limited thereto. Any technical extension or re-creation made according to the present utility model is protected by the present utility model. The protection scope of the present utility model shall be subject to the claims.
