Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of household appliances, and particularly relates to a food processor with stable operation. Background Art
[0002] Existing food processors such as reciprocating vegetable cutters generally include a main body, a motor assembly arranged on the main body, a cutter head assembly, and a cutting assembly arranged above the cutter head assembly and drivingly connected to the motor assembly. When a user uses the food processor, the reciprocating movement of the cutting assembly is used to cut food ingredients. When the user places the food ingredients on the cutter head assembly, a stopper is needed to achieve the lateral positioning of the food ingredients, so that the cutting assembly can ensure that the food ingredients will not slide laterally due to its acting force when cutting the food ingredients. For example, Chinese invention patent CN103878802B discloses a food cutting device for cutting food into thin slices, rods, cubes or filaments. An extrusion block is arranged opposite to the cutting tool. When the cutting tool processes the food ingredients, the cutting tool moves towards the extrusion block until the main cutting edge on the cutting tool touches the extrusion block and presses down the extrusion block, and then the cutting tool moves back, and the extrusion block returns to its original position. The lateral movement of the food ingredients is prevented by the extrusion block. However, in this solution, the main cutting edge directly contacts the extrusion block, which will cause large wear on the main cutting edge and the extrusion block, resulting in the main cutting edge being not sharp for cutting and the extrusion block having a poor stopping effect on the food ingredients. At the same time, a large collision noise will be generated when the two collide, seriously affecting the user experience of consumers. Summary of the Utility Model
[0003] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a food processor with stable operation, so as to solve the problem that in the existing food processor, the cutting edge directly impacts the extrusion block when cutting food ingredients, resulting in serious wear of the cutting edge and the extrusion block and generating a large collision noise.
[0004] To achieve the above purpose, the utility model provides a food processor with stable operation, which includes a main body, a motor assembly arranged on the main body, a cutter head assembly, and a cutting assembly arranged above the cutter head assembly and drivingly connected to the motor assembly. An installation groove for accommodating the cutter head assembly and the cutting assembly is arranged at the top of the main body. The cutter head assembly is also provided with a baffle plate that can move up and down reciprocally. The installation groove is provided with a chute extending along the lateral reciprocating movement direction of the cutting assembly. The cutting assembly is provided with a sliding rib adapted to the chute. Part of the baffle plate protrudes from the bottom wall of the chute. The cutting assembly reciprocates laterally to have a first state of driving the sliding rib to move to press down the baffle plate, and a second state of driving the sliding rib to move away from the baffle plate and the baffle plate moving upward to reset.
[0005] In this application, a chute extending along the lateral reciprocating movement direction of the cutting assembly is provided in the installation groove, and the cutting assembly is provided with sliding ribs adapted to the chute. When the cutting assembly moves laterally and reciprocally, the reciprocating movement can be realized by the cooperation of the chute and the sliding ribs, achieving the guiding effect of the installation groove on the cutting assembly, which helps to improve the sliding stability of the cutting assembly, avoid the situation of deviation and jamming when the cutting assembly slides, and ensure the stability of the cutting assembly for food processing.
[0006] At the same time, part of the material blocking plate protrudes from the bottom wall of the chute. The cutting assembly moves laterally and reciprocally to have a first state in which the sliding rib moves to press down the material blocking plate, and a second state in which the sliding rib moves to disengage from the material blocking plate and the material blocking plate moves upward to reset. When the cutting assembly reciprocates to cut food materials, when a cutting is completed and the cutting assembly moves close to the material blocking plate, the sliding rib can apply a downward pressure to the material blocking plate and drive the material blocking plate to move downward, thus avoiding the collision interference between the cutting knife on the cutting assembly and the material blocking plate. Furthermore, the protection of the cutting knife and the material blocking plate is realized, avoiding the serious wear of the cutting knife and the material blocking plate caused by long-term collision between the two. At the same time, the collision noise between the two is avoided, which helps to reduce the generation of noise and improve the service life of the material blocking plate and the cutting assembly. And when the cutting assembly resets, the sliding rib is separated from the material blocking plate, and the material blocking plate loses the downward pressure on the sliding rib, so that the material blocking plate can move upward and reset to ensure the position-limiting effect of the material blocking plate on the food materials, and further ensure the smooth progress of food material processing.
[0007] In a preferred implementation manner of a food processor with stable operation, the material blocking plate includes a material blocking block provided at the bottom of the cutter head assembly and capable of protruding upward through the cutter head assembly, and a driven part connected to the material blocking block. An opening penetrating up and down is provided on the bottom wall of the chute, and the top end of the driven part extends out from the opening.
[0008] By setting the material blocking plate as a material blocking block that can protrude upward through the cutter head assembly and a driven part connected to the material blocking block, and an opening penetrating up and down is provided on the bottom wall of the chute, and the top end of the driven part extends out from the opening, when the cutting assembly reciprocates, the end of the sliding rib facing the driven part can apply a downward pressure to the driven part when contacting the driven part, and the driven part drives the material blocking block to move downward together during the downward movement, thus avoiding the situation of collision between the material blocking block and the cutting knife of the cutting assembly. And while the sliding rib realizes the guiding of the cutting assembly, it can also realize the driving of the driven part, realizing the functional integration of the sliding rib, eliminating the need to set up another structural component to cooperate with the driven part, which helps to simplify the structure of the cutting assembly and improve its structural compactness.
[0009] In a preferred implementation manner of a food processor with stable operation, the driven part is a side rib extending vertically, and an inclined extending driven surface is provided at the end of the side rib facing the sliding rib; or,
[0010] The end of the sliding rib facing the driven part is provided with an active surface that extends obliquely and cooperates with the driven part.
[0011] By providing a driven surface that extends obliquely at the end of the side rib facing the sliding rib, when the cutting assembly moves to the first state, the end of the sliding rib contacts the driven surface, and during the continuous movement, the side rib gradually moves downward, and at the same time, the side rib drives the material blocking block to move downward together, realizing the downward movement of the entire material blocking plate. The inclined driven surface slides more stably when contacting the sliding rib, which can improve the stability of driving the material blocking plate downward and avoid the situation of jamming during the movement of the material blocking plate.
[0012] In a preferred implementation manner of a food processor with stable operation, the cutting assembly includes a cutting knife provided at the front end, the material blocking plate includes a material blocking block provided at the bottom of the cutter head assembly and capable of extending upward through the cutter head assembly, and a driven part connected to the material blocking block and cooperating with the sliding rib. When the cutting knife moves towards the material blocking plate, the distance from the cutting knife to the material blocking block is greater than the distance from the end of the sliding rib facing the driven part to the driven part.
[0013] By setting the distance from the cutting knife to the material blocking block to be greater than the distance from the end of the sliding rib facing the driven part to the driven part, when the cutting assembly moves towards the material blocking plate, the contact and cooperation between the driven part and the sliding rib occur prior to the cooperation between the cutting knife and the material blocking block. Thus, when the cutting knife has not yet contacted the material blocking block, the sliding rib drives the entire material blocking plate to move downward, effectively avoiding the collision between the cutting knife and the material blocking plate, helping to reduce the generation of noise, and improving the service life of the material blocking plate and the cutting assembly.
[0014] In a preferred implementation manner of a food processor with stable operation, a reset member is provided between the material blocking plate and the cutter head assembly, so that after the sliding rib is separated from the material blocking plate, the material blocking plate moves upward and resets.
[0015] By providing a reset member between the material blocking plate and the cutter head assembly, after the cutting assembly completes one cutting of the food material and moves away from the material blocking plate, the sliding rib is separated from the material blocking plate and loses the downward pressing force on the material blocking plate. The material blocking plate can move upward to its original position under the action of the reset member to ensure the position-limiting effect of the material blocking plate on the food material, and further ensure the smooth progress of food material processing.
[0016] In a preferred implementation manner of a food processor with stable operation, the cutter head assembly is provided with a fixing column extending downward, the material blocking plate is provided with a through hole for the fixing column to pass through, and a limiting member is further fixed at the end of the fixing column. The reset member is a spring with one end abutted against the limiting member and the other end abutted against the material blocking plate.
[0017] By setting the reset member as a spring with one end abutted against the limiting member and the other end abutted against the baffle plate, when the baffle plate is subjected to the downward acting force of the sliding rib, the spring can be compressed and the baffle plate can move downward to avoid the collision between the baffle plate and the cutting tool. At the same time, when the cutting assembly moves away from the baffle plate, the baffle plate is reset under the elastic force of the spring to ensure the stopping effect on the food material. At the same time, the cooperation between the fixing column and the through hole can realize the guiding effect on the baffle plate, ensure that it can slide smoothly in the up and down direction, improve the sliding smoothness of the baffle plate, ensure the stability of its work, and avoid the situation that the baffle plate is stuck during the reciprocating movement up and down, resulting in its abnormal work.
[0018] In a preferred implementation manner of a food processor with stable operation, the baffle plate is provided with a baffle block extending upward through the cutter head assembly. A reciprocating gap for the reciprocating movement of the baffle plate is provided between the baffle plate and the limiting member, and the width of the reciprocating gap is not less than the length of the baffle block.
[0019] By providing a reciprocating gap for the reciprocating movement of the baffle plate between the baffle plate and the limiting member, and the width of the reciprocating gap is not less than the length of the baffle block, it is ensured that the baffle plate has a large enough reciprocating gap for its downward movement during the downward movement, thereby effectively avoiding the situation that the downward movement distance of the baffle block is too small, resulting in the baffle block still being able to collide with the cutting tool and causing serious wear, and further improving the protection effect on the cutting tool and the baffle plate.
[0020] In a preferred implementation manner of a food processor with stable operation, the food processor further includes a base. An installation groove is formed in the base, and a sliding groove is formed between the side wall of the base and the side wall of the cutter head assembly.
[0021] By providing the base and forming the installation groove in the base, it helps to improve the overall strength of the main body, so that the main body can still maintain the stability of the overall structure when cutting relatively hard food materials, and avoid the situation that the main body is deformed or even damaged. At the same time, the sliding groove is formed between the side wall of the base and the side wall of the cutter head assembly, and the forming is simpler and more reliable. When the cutter head assembly is installed on the installation groove, the sliding groove can be formed together inside, eliminating the need to separately provide a sliding groove structure on the base, which helps to simplify the structure of the base and reduce its production cost.
[0022] In a preferred implementation manner of a food processor with stable operation, the bottom end of the installation groove is open, and a supporting platform extending inward is provided on the side wall of the installation groove. The cutter head assembly includes a supporting portion lapped above the supporting platform and a main body portion located in the opening, and the sliding groove is formed between the side wall of the installation groove and the side wall of the supporting portion.
[0023] By setting the cutter head assembly to include a supporting portion lapped above the supporting platform and a main body portion located in the opening, the cutter head assembly realizes axial support through the cooperation between the supporting portion and the supporting platform, ensuring the stability of the cutter head assembly.
[0024] In a preferred implementation of a food processor with stable operation, one of the inner sidewall of the installation groove and the cutting assembly is provided with a guiding groove extending along the reciprocating movement direction of the cutting assembly, and the other of the two is provided with a guiding rib adapted to the guiding groove.
[0025] By providing the guiding groove and the guiding rib adapted to the guiding groove, the cutting assembly and the main body can not only achieve reciprocating movement through the cooperation of the sliding groove and the sliding rib, but also further achieve sliding cooperation through the cooperation of the guiding rib and the guiding groove, realizing a double guiding effect on the cutting assembly, which helps to further improve the stability of the sliding cooperation between the cutting assembly and the main body, and further ensure the stability of the cutting assembly for food processing.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS
[0034] To more clearly illustrate the overall concept of the present utility model, the following will be described in detail by way of examples in combination with the accompanying drawings of the specification.
[0035] It should be noted that many specific details are set forth in the following description to facilitate a full understanding of the present utility model. However, the present utility model may also be implemented in other ways different from those described herein. Therefore, the scope of protection of the present utility model is not limited by the specific embodiments disclosed below.
[0036] As Figures 1 to 5 shown, the present utility model provides a food processor with stable operation, including a main body 1, a motor assembly 2 provided on the main body 1, a cutter head assembly 3, and a cutting assembly 4 provided above the cutter head assembly 3 and drivingly connected to the motor assembly 2. An installation groove 11 for accommodating the cutter head assembly 3 and the cutting assembly 4 is provided at the top of the main body 1. The cutter head assembly 3 is further provided with a baffle 6 that can reciprocate up and down. A sliding groove 111 extending along the transverse reciprocating movement direction of the cutting assembly 4 is provided in the installation groove 11. The cutting assembly 4 is provided with a sliding rib 41 adapted to the sliding groove 111. A part of the baffle 6 protrudes from the bottom wall of the sliding groove 111. The cutting assembly 4 reciprocates transversely to have a first state of driving the sliding rib 41 to move to press down the baffle 6, and a second state of driving the sliding rib 41 to move away from the baffle 6 and the baffle 6 to move upward and reset.
[0037] In this application, by providing a sliding groove 111 extending along the transverse reciprocating movement direction of the cutting assembly 4 in the installation groove 11, and the cutting assembly 4 is provided with a sliding rib 41 adapted to the sliding groove 111, when the cutting assembly 4 reciprocates transversely, the reciprocating movement can be realized by means of the cooperation of the sliding groove 111 and the sliding rib 41, realizing the guiding effect of the installation groove 11 on the cutting assembly 4, which helps to improve the sliding stability of the cutting assembly 4, avoid the situation of deviation and jamming when the cutting assembly 4 slides, and ensure the stability of the cutting assembly 4 in processing food materials. It should be noted that the structure of the sliding groove 111 in this application is not specifically limited. As a preferred embodiment of this application, as Figure 2 shown, the sliding groove 111 has an upward opening. Of course, the opening of the sliding groove 111 can also face the side close to the cutter head assembly 3, which will not be elaborated here.
[0038] Meanwhile, part of the material baffle 6 protrudes from the bottom wall of the chute 111. The cutting assembly 4 reciprocates horizontally to have a first state of driving the sliding rib 41 to move downward to press the material baffle 6, and a second state of driving the sliding rib 41 to move away from the material baffle 6 and the material baffle 6 moving upward to reset. When the cutting assembly 4 reciprocates to cut food materials, when a cutting is completed and it moves close to the material baffle 6, the sliding rib 41 can apply a downward pressure to the material baffle 6 and drive the material baffle 6 to move downward, thus avoiding the collision interference between the cutting knife 43 on the cutting assembly 4 and the material baffle 6. Furthermore, the protection of the cutting knife 43 and the material baffle 6 is realized, and the situation that the cutting knife 43 and the material baffle 6 are severely worn due to long-term collision is avoided. At the same time, the collision noise between the two is avoided, which helps to reduce the generation of noise and improve the service life of the material baffle 6 and the cutting assembly 4. And when the cutting assembly 4 resets, the sliding rib 41 separates from the material baffle 6, and the material baffle 6 loses the downward pressure on the sliding rib 41, enabling the material baffle 6 to move upward and reset to ensure the stopping function of the material baffle 6 for food materials, and further ensuring the smooth progress of food material processing.
[0039] It should be noted that when the sliding rib 41 does not press the material baffle 6, the material baffle 6 protrudes from the bottom wall of the chute 111. When the sliding rib 41 completely presses the material baffle 6, part of the top of the material baffle 6 still protrudes from the bottom wall of the chute 111. Or, when the sliding rib 41 does not press the material baffle 6, the material baffle 6 protrudes from the bottom wall of the chute 111. When the sliding rib 41 completely presses the material baffle 6, the top wall of the material baffle 6 is flush with the bottom wall of the chute 111.
[0040] As a preferred embodiment of the present application, as Figure 2 、 Figure 5 shown, the material baffle 6 includes a baffle block 61 provided at the bottom of the cutter head assembly 3 and capable of passing through the cutter head assembly 3 and protruding upward, and a driven part connected to the baffle block 61. The bottom wall of the chute 111 is provided with an opening penetrating up and down, and the top end of the driven part extends out from the opening.
[0041] By setting the material baffle 6 as a baffle block 61 that can pass through the cutter head assembly 3 and protrude upward and a driven part connected to the baffle block 61, and the bottom wall of the chute 111 is provided with an opening penetrating up and down, and the top end of the driven part extends out from the opening, when the cutting assembly 4 reciprocates, the end of the sliding rib 41 facing the driven part can apply a downward pressure to the driven part when it contacts the driven part. During the downward movement of the driven part, the baffle block 61 is driven to move downward together, thus avoiding the collision between the baffle block 61 and the cutting knife 43 of the cutting assembly 4. And while the sliding rib 41 realizes the guiding of the cutting assembly 4, it can also realize the driving of the driven part, realizing the functional integration of the sliding rib 41, eliminating the need to set up another structural component to cooperate with the driven part, which helps to simplify the structure of the cutting assembly 4 and improve its structural compactness.
[0042] It should be noted that the structure of the driven part is not specifically limited in this application. As a preferred implementation manner of this application, as Figure 2 , Figure 5 shown, the driven part is a side rib 62 extending vertically, and an inclined extending driven surface 621 is provided at the end of the side rib 62 facing the sliding rib 41.
[0043] By providing an inclined extending driven surface 621 at the end of the side rib 62 facing the sliding rib 41, when the cutting assembly 4 moves to the first state, the end of the sliding rib 41 contacts the driven surface 621, and during the continuous movement, the side rib 62 gradually moves downward, and at the same time, the side rib 62 drives the material blocking block 61 to move downward together, realizing the downward movement of the entire material blocking plate 6. The inclined driven surface 621 slides more stably when contacting the sliding rib 41, which can improve the stability of driving the material blocking plate 6 downward and avoid the situation of jamming during the movement of the material blocking plate 6.
[0044] As a preference under this implementation manner, as Figure 3 shown, an inclined extending active surface 411 that cooperates with the driven part is provided at the end of the sliding rib 41 facing the driven part.
[0045] It should be noted that the active surface 411 and the driven surface 621 are not necessarily provided simultaneously in this application. It can be provided with only the active surface 411 or only the driven surface 621, and the side rib 62 or the sliding rib 41 can directly drive the active surface 411 or the driven surface 621; more preferably, as Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 shown, the active surface 411 and the driven surface 621 are provided simultaneously, which can further improve the smoothness of the sliding fit when they contact and improve the stability of the work.
[0046] As a preferred implementation manner of this application, as Figure 1 shown, the cutting assembly 4 includes a cutting tool 43 provided at the front end, and the material blocking plate 6 includes a material blocking block 61 provided at the bottom of the cutter head assembly 3 and capable of extending upward through the cutter head assembly 3 and a driven part connected to the material blocking block 61 and cooperating with the sliding rib 41. When the cutting tool 43 moves towards the material blocking plate 6, the distance from the cutting tool 43 to the material blocking block 61 is greater than the distance from the end of the sliding rib 41 facing the driven part to the driven part.
[0047] By setting the distance from the cutting tool 43 to the material stop 61 to be greater than the distance from the end of the sliding rib 41 facing the driven part to the driven part, when the cutting assembly 4 moves towards the material stop plate 6, the contact and cooperation between the driven part and the sliding rib 41 will precede the cooperation between the cutting tool 43 and the material stop 61. Thus, when the cutting tool 43 has not yet contacted the material stop 61, the sliding rib 41 drives the entire material stop plate 6 to move downward, effectively avoiding the collision between the cutting tool 43 and the material stop plate 6, helping to reduce the generation of noise, and improving the service life of the material stop plate 6 and the cutting assembly 4.
[0048] It should be noted that the above-mentioned material stop 61 of the present application is preferably convex upward above the cutting tool 43, so as to ensure effective positioning of the food ingredients. Of course, the material stop 61 of the present application is not limited to the above setting. The top end of the material stop 61 can also be located below the cutting tool 43, and the distance from the cutting tool 43 to the material stop 61 can also be less than or equal to the distance from the end of the sliding rib 41 facing the driven part to the driven part; it can also be that the side of the material stop 61 facing the cutting tool 43 is provided with an inclined surface, so that the cutting tool 43 will not contact the material stop 61 immediately when moving towards the material stop 61.
[0049] As a preferred embodiment of the present application, as Figure 5 shown, a reset member 8 is provided between the material stop plate 6 and the cutter head assembly 3, so that after the sliding rib 41 is separated from the material stop plate 6, the material stop plate 6 moves upward and resets.
[0050] By providing a reset member 8 between the material stop plate 6 and the cutter head assembly 3, after the cutting assembly 4 completes one cutting of the food ingredients, during the process of moving away from the material stop plate 6, the sliding rib 41 is separated from the material stop plate 6 and loses the downward pressing force on the material stop plate 6. The material stop plate 6 can move upward to its original position under the action of the reset member 8 to ensure the positioning function of the material stop plate 6 for the food ingredients, and further ensure the smooth progress of food ingredient processing.
[0051] It should be noted that the present application does not specifically limit the structure of the reset member 8. As a preference in this embodiment, as Figure 5 shown, the cutter head assembly 3 is provided with a fixed column 33 extending downward. The material stop plate 6 is provided with a through hole for the fixed column 33 to pass through. A limiting member 7 is also fixed at the end of the fixed column 33. The reset member 8 is a spring with one end abutted against the limiting member 7 and the other end abutted against the material stop plate 6.
[0052] By setting the reset member 8 as a spring with one end abutted against the limiting member 7 and the other end abutted against the baffle plate 6, when the baffle plate 6 is subjected to the downward acting force of the sliding rib 41, the spring can be compressed and the baffle plate 6 can move downward to avoid the collision between the baffle plate 6 and the cutting tool 43. At the same time, when the cutting assembly 4 moves away from the baffle plate 6, the baffle plate 6 is reset under the elastic force of the spring to ensure the position-limiting effect on the food material. At the same time, the cooperation between the fixing column 33 and the through hole can realize the guiding effect on the baffle plate 6, ensure that it can slide smoothly in the up and down direction, improve the sliding smoothness of the baffle plate 6, ensure the stability of its work, and avoid the situation that the baffle plate 6 cannot work normally due to jamming during the reciprocating movement up and down.
[0053] Further, as Figure 5 shown, the baffle plate 6 is provided with a baffle block 61 extending upward through the cutter head assembly 3. A reciprocating gap for the reciprocating movement of the baffle plate 6 is provided between the baffle plate 6 and the limiting member 7, and the width of the reciprocating gap is not less than the length of the baffle block 61.
[0054] By providing a reciprocating gap for the reciprocating movement of the baffle plate 6 between the baffle plate 6 and the limiting member 7, and the width of the reciprocating gap is not less than the length of the baffle block 61, it is ensured that the baffle plate 6 has a large enough reciprocating gap for its downward movement during the downward movement, thereby effectively avoiding the situation that the downward movement distance of the baffle block 61 is too small and the baffle block 61 can still collide with the cutting tool 43 and cause serious wear, and further improving the protection effect on the cutting tool 43 and the baffle plate 6.
[0055] As a preferred embodiment of the present application, as Figure 2 、 Figure 3 shown, the food processor further includes a base 5, an installation groove 11 is formed in the base 5, and a sliding groove 111 is formed between the side wall of the base 5 and the side wall of the cutter head assembly 3.
[0056] By providing the base 5 and forming the installation groove 11 in the base 5, it helps to improve the overall strength of the main body 1, so that the main body 1 can still maintain the stability of the overall structure when cutting relatively hard food materials, and avoid the situation that the main body 1 is deformed or even damaged. At the same time, the sliding groove 111 is formed between the side wall of the base 5 and the side wall of the cutter head assembly 3, and the forming is simpler and more reliable. When the cutter head assembly 3 is installed on the installation groove 11, the sliding groove 111 can be formed together inside, eliminating the need to separately provide the sliding groove 111 on the base 5, which helps to simplify the structure of the base 5 and reduce its production cost.
[0057] It should be noted that the present application does not specifically limit the relationship between the base 5 and the main body 1. They can be integrally formed, which can simplify the production steps, improve production efficiency, and at the same time eliminate the structural components for connecting the two, simplify the components of the whole machine, and thus reduce the occupied space of the whole machine to realize the miniaturization of the food processor. Or they can be separately formed and the base 5 can be detachably connected to the main body 1, enabling the user to separate the base 5 from the main body 1 and deeply clean both, ensuring the cleanliness of the base 5 and the main body 1, and at the same time facilitating the user to clean them.
[0058] Further, as Figure 3 shown, the bottom of the installation groove 11 is open 51, and the side wall of the installation groove 11 is provided with a support platform 52 extending inward. The cutter head assembly 3 includes a support portion 32 lapped above the support platform 52 and a main body portion 31 located within the opening 51. The sliding groove 111 is formed between the side wall of the installation groove 11 and the side wall of the support portion 32.
[0059] By setting the cutter head assembly 3 to include a support portion 32 lapped above the support platform 52 and a main body portion 31 located within the opening 51, the cutter head assembly 3 realizes axial support through the cooperation between the support portion 32 and the support platform 52, ensuring the stability of the cutter head assembly 3.
[0060] As a preferred embodiment of the present application, as Figure 3 shown, one of the inner side wall of the installation groove 11 and the cutting assembly 4 is provided with a guiding groove 112 extending along the reciprocating movement direction of the cutting assembly 4, and the other of them is provided with a guiding rib 42 adapted to the guiding groove 112. Preferably, as Figure 3 shown, the guiding groove 112 is formed on the inner side wall of the installation groove 11, and the guiding rib 42 is formed on the side wall of the cutting assembly 4.
