[0024] To further elaborate on the technical means and effects adopted by this application to achieve the predetermined purpose, the following will, in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and preferred embodiments, detail the specific embodiments, structures, features, and their effects of this application as follows. In the following description, different "one embodiment" or "embodiment" do not necessarily refer to the same embodiment. In addition, the specific features, structures, or characteristics in one or more embodiments can be combined in any suitable form.
[0025] The food processor disclosed in the present utility model, the actual products are soybean milk machines, wall breakers, grinders, choppers, etc., which are not limited herein.
[0026] The present utility model mainly improves the exhaust valve of the food processor, making the number of components of the exhaust valve less and the disassembly and assembly structure simple, so that after the user uses the food processor, it is convenient to remove and clean the exhaust valve.
[0027] As Figure 1 shown, the present utility model discloses a food processor, which includes a main body 9, a processing cup 8 assembled on the main body 9, and an outer cover 6 covering the outer side surface of the processing cup 8, so as to reduce the working noise transmitted from the processing cup 8 during the operation of the food processor through the outer cover 6.
[0028] The processing cup 8 has a cup cover 7, and a first exhaust through hole 71 is provided in the cup cover 7. A limiting ring 72 is further protruded around the first exhaust through hole 71 on the cup cover 7, and the first exhaust through hole 71 is arranged within the limiting ring 72.
[0029] The outer cover 6 is provided with a second exhaust through hole 61 corresponding to the first exhaust through hole 71, and the hole wall of the second exhaust through hole 61 has a fastening position 62.
[0030] The food processor further includes an exhaust valve 5, which is inserted into the first exhaust through hole 71 after passing through the second exhaust through hole 61, so that the gas in the processing cup 8 can be depressurized through the exhaust valve 5.
[0031] Further in combination with Figures 2 - 5As shown, the exhaust valve 5 specifically includes a valve body 1 and a seal 2 detachably assembled on the valve body 1; the valve body 1 includes a valve barrel 11 and a mounting portion 15 located on the outer side surface of the valve barrel 11. The valve barrel 11 is hollow and has an exhaust hole 12 at the top. A reverse buckle 13 extending outward is provided at the bottom of the valve barrel 11 to provide limit assembly for the seal 2. The seal 2 includes a seal body 21 inserted into the valve barrel 11, a sealing ring 22 connected to the outer side surface of the seal body 21, and an air guide channel 23 located inside the seal body 21. The lower end of the air guide channel 23 is open, and the top has a ventilation groove 231 communicating with the exhaust hole 12. An assembly groove 28 is provided between the sealing ring 22 and the seal body 21, and a first limit groove 24 is provided on the inner side surface of the sealing ring 22 close to the assembly groove 28. The seal 2 is sleeved on the lower end of the valve barrel 11 by using the assembly groove 28, and the reverse buckle 13 is located in the first limit groove 24 to limit the assembly of the seal 2 and the valve body 1.
[0032] The seal body 21 is in the shape of a long cylinder and abuts against the inner side wall of the valve barrel 11, so that the seal body 21 is not easily deformed, resulting in the sealing failure of the sealing ring 22 for the cup lid 7, which is beneficial to ensuring that the sealing ring 22 forms a reliable seal for the cup lid 7.
[0033] The size of the ventilation groove 231 is larger than that of the exhaust hole 12. There is also a gas collecting cavity 4 between the ventilation groove 231 and the exhaust hole 12. The gas in the processing cup 8 enters from the lower end opening of the air guide channel 23, along the air guide channel 23, enters the gas collecting cavity 4 from the ventilation groove 231, and after pressure reduction and buffering in the gas collecting cavity 4, it is discharged from the exhaust hole 12 at a reduced pressure.
[0034] Among them, the exhaust hole 12, the ventilation groove 231 and the lower end opening of the air guide channel 23 are not coaxially arranged, which can slow down the pressure of the gas in the processing cup 8 from the exhaust hole 12.
[0035] A second limit groove is formed between the reverse buckle 13 and the mounting portion 15. The sealing ring 22 is located in the second limit groove, and the upper and lower side surfaces of the sealing ring 22 abut against the lower side surface of the mounting portion 15 and the upper side surface of the reverse buckle 13 respectively.
[0036] A first sealing ring 221 is provided on the outer side surface of the sealing ring 22, and the first sealing ring 221 abuts against the inner wall of the limit ring 72 of the cup lid 7. The sealing ring 22 is connected to the first-stage seal of the first exhaust through hole 71 by using the first sealing ring 221.
[0037] A second sealing ring 222 is provided on the outer side surface of the sealing ring 22. The second sealing ring 222 is located above the first sealing ring 221, and the lower side surface of the second sealing ring 222 abuts against the top of the limit ring 72 of the cup lid 7. The sealing ring 22 is connected to the second-stage seal of the first exhaust through hole 71 by using the first sealing ring 221.
[0038] A buckle 14 is provided on the outer side of the installation part 15. After the exhaust valve 5 is inserted through the second exhaust through-hole 61, the sealing ring 22 is inserted into the first exhaust through-hole 71. By appropriately rotating the exhaust valve 5 to make the buckle 14 engage with the engaging position 62 on the hole wall of the second exhaust through-hole 61 of the outer cover 6, the exhaust valve 5 can be fixedly assembled with the outer cover 6.
[0039] The exhaust valve 5 further includes a valve cover 3, and the valve cover 3 and the valve body 1 are of an integrally formed structure or a separately assembled structure. Usually, for the convenience of machining the valve body 1 and material saving, the valve cover 3 is detachably connected to the installation part 15. For example, a plurality of buckling ends 32 are provided on the lower side of the valve cover 3, and corresponding buckling seats 16 are provided on the installation part 15. The valve cover 3 is assembled with the valve body 1 by engaging the buckling ends 32 with the corresponding buckling seats 16.
[0040] An avoidance groove 31 is provided on the valve cover 3, and the top end of the valve barrel 11 is located in the avoidance groove 31 so that the exhaust hole 12 is exposed outside the valve cover 3.
[0041] The above are only the preferred embodiments of the present application and are not intended to limit the present application. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present application shall be included in the protection scope of the present application.
