Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the field of kitchen appliances, in particular to a multifunctional food processing machine. Background Art
[0002] In the traditional kitchen food preparation process, the operator uses a kitchen knife to cut vegetables manually, which requires the operator to have certain knife skills and techniques. It is difficult for unskilled people, and the processed vegetables are likely to be of different sizes, affecting the mood for eating. In addition, this method has the hidden danger of the kitchen knife easily cutting people, which poses a safety problem and has low cutting efficiency. In the current environment of pursuing high efficiency and fast-paced life, it is not conducive to improving user experience.
[0003] In order to solve the problems of high difficulty, low safety factor and low efficiency in manual vegetable cutting mentioned above, automatic vegetable cutters have appeared on the market. Although the dishes that can be processed by this type of vegetable cutter are limited to relatively crisp and hard fruits and vegetables, it is unable to cut slightly soft leafy vegetables and even peppers, which limits the types of vegetables that can be cut. In addition, existing vegetable cutters are limited to cutting vegetables and cannot cut meat. For example, patent CN218614312U discloses a fully automatic vegetable cutter, which includes a feed seat, a roller knife holder and a blade. The blade is slidably built into the roller knife holder, and the roller knife holder is built into the feed seat. When in use, the roller knife holder is driven to rotate so that the blade cuts the vegetables in the feed seat. The above-mentioned vegetable cutter can free the user's hands and improve the efficiency of cutting vegetables. However, it is limited to cutting vegetables and has a single function, which makes it difficult to meet the user's needs for processing different types of ingredients.
[0004] Of course, there are also specialized meat slicers on the market, but meat slicers can only cut meat. If users want to cut both vegetables and meat, they need to purchase two machines to do so, which is not only expensive but also takes up a lot of space, resulting in a shortage of available space in the kitchen.
[0005] To meet market demand, the functions of food processing machines are becoming increasingly diverse. For example, patent CN115431324A discloses a cutting and preparing machine that integrates vegetable and meat cutting functions. This effectively solves the aforementioned problem of a single machine with a single function and the high cost of using two machines. However, this cutting and preparing machine is relatively large and is mainly used in commercial settings, not in everyday kitchens and households, resulting in a limited range of applications. Furthermore, the vegetable and meat cutting components of this cutting and preparing machine are non-detachable, making them inconvenient to clean. Similarly, it lacks convenience for daily household use and fails to meet users' demand for convenience. Utility Model Content

[0008] The multifunctional food processing machine of the present invention also has the following additional technical features:
[0009] When the food processor is in a meat-cutting state, the meat-cutting knife assembly includes a knife barrel and a meat-cutting knife provided on the knife barrel. The meat-cutting knife is separated from the knife barrel, and the knife holder is plugged into the knife barrel so that the meat-cutting knife assembly is inserted into the knife barrel.
[0010] The outer side wall of the knife holder is provided with the limiting rib, and the inner side wall of the knife cylinder is provided with a sliding groove extending along the axial direction of the knife cylinder, and the sliding groove penetrates the knife cylinder in the radial direction. When the limiting rib is plugged into the sliding groove, the limiting rib extends radially out of the sliding groove to be plugged into and cooperate with the limiting groove; and / or, the side wall of the knife cylinder is provided with a mounting port for installing the vegetable cutting knife, and when the meat cutting knife assembly is inserted into the knife cylinder, the mounting port is arranged toward the feeding port.
[0011] When the inner side wall of the knife cylinder is provided with a sliding groove extending axially along the knife cylinder, the open end of the knife cylinder for inserting the knife holder is provided with a guide rib protruding radially outward, and a guide groove is formed in the guide rib for guiding the limiting rib to the sliding groove, and the guide groove is connected to the sliding groove.
[0012] The side wall of the knife holder is provided with the limiting rib, and the vegetable cutting knife assembly includes a knife cylinder and a vegetable cutting knife arranged on the knife cylinder. The knife cylinder is provided with a convex rib protruding radially outward, and a groove for accommodating the limiting rib is formed on the inner side of the convex rib. The limiting rib is plugged into the limiting groove through the convex rib.
[0013] The side wall of the knife holder is convexly provided with the limiting rib, and the meat cutting knife assembly is separately installed with the processing cavity through the knife holder, and the limiting rib is separately and directly plugged into and matched with the limiting groove.
[0014] A stop rib is provided at one end of the limiting groove away from the opening to limit the movement of the limiting rib into position.
[0015] The processing chamber includes a vegetable cutting chamber and a meat cutting chamber which are arranged in sequence and communicated with each other in a transverse direction away from the output end of the machine base, and the limiting ribs or the limiting grooves are arranged on the inner wall of the meat cutting chamber.
[0016] The meat cutting chamber protrudes laterally from the machine base, and a discharge port and a material guide channel extending downward along the discharge port are provided at the bottom of the meat cutting chamber. The vegetable cutting knife assembly includes a knife barrel and a vegetable cutting knife provided on the knife barrel, and the knife barrel is provided with a feed port. When the meat cutting knife assembly is inserted into the knife barrel, the feed port is arranged toward the discharge port.
[0017] The tool holder is provided with a reduction box located at one end of the rolling cutter group and a handle located at the other end of the rolling cutter group, and the handle is arranged away from the output end of the machine base.
[0018] Due to the adoption of the above technical solution, the utility model has the following beneficial effects:
[0019] 1. The multifunctional food processor of this utility model can be used to chop both vegetables and meat. Users only need to purchase one machine to achieve multiple processing functions, which is low cost, frees the user's hands, and improves processing efficiency. The multifunctional food processor of this application can be used for home use. It has a compact structure, and the vegetable and meat cleaver assemblies are easy to install and can be disassembled for cleaning, providing users with convenient cleaning and improving the cleaning effect of the knife assemblies.
[0020] The food processor of the present application uses a vegetable cutting knife assembly and a meat cleaver assembly interchangeably in a processing chamber, so that one processing chamber can adapt to two different processing assemblies, realizing the function of a single machine for both cutting vegetables and cutting meat. Moreover, because the vegetable cutting knife assembly and the meat cleaver assembly are interchangeable, the connection structure between the two processing assemblies can be eliminated compared to the prior art, making the processing chamber more compact, that is, making the entire machine structure compact and more suitable for home use. Moreover, the vegetable cutting and meat cleaver functions are used independently, which reduces the load on the motor in the machine base and helps to extend the service life of the motor. Since the vegetable cutting knife assembly and the meat cleaver assembly are interchangeable, the two processing assemblies are detachable from the processing chamber as a whole, providing conditions for their replacement, and the detachability also provides convenience for removing the processing assemblies for cleaning.
[0021] On this basis, the meat cleaver assembly and the processing cavity can limit the tool holder through the insertion and cooperation of the limiting ribs and the limiting grooves, so that the tool holder remains stable during the operation of the meat cleaver assembly, and only the rolling cutter assembly rotates, thereby improving the stability and reliability of the meat cleaver assembly.
[0022] 2. As a preferred embodiment, when the food processor is in the meat-cutting mode, the vegetable knife is separated from the knife barrel, and the knife holder is plugged into the knife barrel, so that the meat-cutting knife assembly is inserted into the knife barrel. This means that the knife barrel serves as both a part of the vegetable knife assembly and can also be installed with the meat-cutting knife assembly. Positioning the knife barrel outside the meat-cutting knife assembly provides protection, reducing the likelihood of a user directly touching the blade of the meat-cutting knife assembly, improving user safety, and enriching the functionality of the knife barrel.
[0023] As a preferred embodiment of this embodiment, the outer side wall of the tool holder is provided with a protruding retaining rib, and the inner side wall of the knife barrel is provided with a sliding groove extending axially along the knife barrel. The sliding groove penetrates the knife barrel radially, and when the retaining rib is engaged with the sliding groove, the retaining rib radially extends out of the sliding groove to engage with the retaining groove. During the axial installation of the meat cleaver assembly into the knife barrel, the sliding groove guides the retaining rib, facilitating smooth installation and improving installation efficiency. Furthermore, the sliding groove provides clearance for the retaining rib, allowing the retaining rib to engage radially with the retaining groove, ensuring that the machining chamber secures the tool holder.
[0024] Furthermore, the open end of the knife barrel into which the knife holder is inserted is provided with a radially outwardly projecting guide rib. A guide groove is formed within the guide rib for guiding the limiting rib to the slide slot, and the guide groove is connected to the slide slot. The provision of the guide groove facilitates quick alignment of the limiting rib on the knife holder with the guide groove and transitions to the slide slot through the guide groove, thereby reducing insertion difficulty and improving installation efficiency.
[0025] The side wall of the knife barrel is provided with a mounting opening for the vegetable cutting knife. When the meat cutting knife assembly is inserted into the knife barrel, the mounting opening is positioned toward the feeding port. When cutting vegetables, the mounting opening is used to mount the vegetable cutting knife. When cutting meat, the mounting opening is positioned toward the feeding port, ensuring that meat passing through the feeding port falls through the mounting opening onto the rolling cutter assembly, ensuring a smooth meat cutting process.
[0026] 3. As a preferred embodiment, the sidewall of the knife holder is provided with a convex rib protruding radially outward, and the knife barrel is provided with a convex rib protruding radially outward. A groove is formed inside the convex rib to accommodate the convex rib, and the convex rib engages with the convex groove via the convex rib. In this embodiment, the use of the groove to wrap the convex rib increases the area of the knife barrel wrapped around the meat cleaver assembly, optimizing the knife barrel's protective effect, preventing direct contact between the knife holder and the processing chamber, thereby reducing wear on the knife holder structure. At the same time, the structural strength of the convex rib and the rib is increased, preventing the rib from deforming and becoming unable to effectively engage with the convex groove. Furthermore, the concave-convex structure provides positional restraint between the processing chamber and the knife barrel, and between the knife barrel and the knife holder, thereby strengthening the securing effect of the knife holder and knife barrel. This ensures that only the rolling cutter assembly rotates during operation of the meat cleaver assembly, thereby improving the operational stability of the meat cleaver assembly.
[0027] 4. In a preferred embodiment, the retaining rib is protruding from the side wall of the knife holder, and the meat cleaver assembly is independently mounted to the processing chamber via the knife holder, with the retaining rib directly engaging with the retaining groove. In this embodiment, the knife barrel can be omitted, and the knife holder can be directly mounted to the processing chamber, eliminating the need for mounting the meat cleaver assembly and knife barrel, saving the user time and effort.
[0028] 5. As a preferred embodiment, a stop rib is provided at one end of the limiting groove, distal from the opening, to limit the movement of the stop rib. This stop rib provides a user with a sense of proper insertion of the meat cleaver assembly into the processing cavity, prompting the user to ensure proper installation and simultaneously ensuring axial positioning of the meat cleaver assembly.
[0029] 6. As a preferred embodiment, the processing chamber includes a vegetable cutting chamber and a meat cutting chamber, arranged transversely and sequentially in a direction away from the output end of the machine base and interconnected. The limiting ribs or limiting grooves are provided on the inner wall of the meat cutting chamber. By separating the vegetable cutting chamber and the meat cutting chamber, vegetables and meat can be prevented from being easily contaminated by odors other than those of the ingredients when processed in the same chamber, thereby ensuring the respective tastes of the different ingredients. Furthermore, the limiting ribs or limiting grooves provided on the inner wall of the meat cutting chamber ensure that the knife holder is fixed to the processing chamber during the meat cutting state, ensuring reliable operation of the meat cleaver assembly.
[0030] As a preferred embodiment of this embodiment, the meat-cutting chamber protrudes laterally from the base, and the bottom of the meat-cutting chamber is provided with a discharge port and a guide channel extending downwardly from the discharge port. The knife barrel is provided with a feed port, and when the meat-cutting knife assembly is inserted into the knife barrel, the feed port is positioned toward the discharge port. By having the meat-cutting chamber protrude laterally from the base, the base's volume is appropriately reduced, and space is provided for discharging materials from the bottom of the meat-cutting chamber, making it convenient for users to use tools to receive materials below the discharge port. The guide channel facilitates the discharge of ingredients, preventing them from splashing when discharged directly through the discharge port. The guide channel provides constraints for orderly and hygienic discharge.
[0031] 7. As a preferred embodiment, the knife holder is equipped with a reduction gearbox located at one end of the rolling cutter assembly and a handle located at the other end of the rolling cutter assembly, the handle being located away from the output end of the machine base. The reduction gearbox enables low-speed operation when cutting meat, thereby meeting the required cutting speed. Furthermore, the handle being located away from the output end of the machine base facilitates the user to pull the meat cleaver assembly out of the processing chamber by grasping the handle on the side of the processing chamber away from the output end of the machine base, thereby improving user convenience.

[0044] like Figures 1 to 5As shown, the present application provides a multifunctional food processor, including a machine base 10 and a processing assembly arranged on the machine base 10, the processing assembly including a processing chamber 11 and a vegetable cutting knife assembly 12 and a meat cutting knife assembly 13 which are replaceably arranged in the processing chamber 11, a motor for driving the vegetable cutting knife assembly 12 and the meat cutting knife assembly 13 to work is provided in the machine base 10, an opening 111 is provided on the side of the processing chamber 11 away from the output end of the machine base 10, the processing chamber 11 is also provided with a feeding port 112 connected to the processing chamber 11, the vegetable cutting knife assembly 12 includes a knife cylinder 121 and a vegetable cutting knife 122 arranged on the knife cylinder 121, the meat cutting knife assembly 13 includes a knife holder 131 and a rolling cutting knife group 132 arranged in the knife holder 131, the inner wall of the processing chamber 11 and one of the knife holder 131 are provided with a limiting rib 14, and the other is provided with a limiting groove 15, the meat cutting knife assembly 13 is slidably installed in the processing chamber 11 through the opening 111, and the limiting rib 14 is plugged into the limiting groove 15.
[0045] The multifunctional food processor of the present invention can be used to cut both vegetables and meat. Users only need to purchase one machine to achieve multiple processing functions, which is low in cost and can free the user's hands, thereby improving processing efficiency. The multifunctional food processor of the present application can be used for home use. It has a compact structure, and the vegetable cutting knife assembly 12 and the meat cutting knife assembly 13 are easy to install and can be disassembled for cleaning, providing users with convenient cleaning and improving the cleaning effect of the knife assembly.
[0046] Specifically, the motor base 10 is equipped with a motor for driving the vegetable cutting knife assembly 12 and the meat cutting knife assembly 13. During operation, the vegetable cutting knife assembly 12 rotates the knife barrel 121, which in turn rotates the vegetable cutting knife 122 on the knife barrel 121, thereby cutting vegetables. Meanwhile, the meat cutting knife assembly 13 remains stationary, with the knife holder 131 being limited by the engagement of the limiting ribs 14 and the limiting slots 15. The output of the motor base 10 then rotates the rolling cutter assembly 132 to cut meat. Specifically, the output end of the base 10 includes a transmission element that is connected to the motor. When the cleaver assembly 12 is in use, the blade drum 121 of the cleaver assembly 12 is connected to the transmission element. When the motor is operating, the transmission element drives the blade drum 121, which in turn rotates the cleaver 122. When the meat cleaver assembly 13 is in use, the transmission element is connected to the rotating shaft connected to the rolling cutter assembly 132. When the motor is operating, the transmission element drives the rotating shaft, which in turn rotates the rolling cutter assembly 132. The cleaver 122 can be detachably mounted on the blade drum 121, allowing users to replace cleavers 122 with different shapes to achieve slicing, shredding, or dicing, thereby meeting different food processing requirements. The rolling cutter assembly 132, for example, can be cut by rotating two sets of rolling cutters 132 relative to each other, forming a cutting edge area between them. The cleaver assembly 12 and the meat cleaver assembly 13 can be removed from the processing chamber 11 for easy cleaning, for example, by rinsing them directly under a tap. Preferably, the cutting knife 122 is detachably mounted on the knife barrel 121, so that the cutting knife 122 can be removed and cleaned separately, and the user can choose to replace the cutting knife 122 with a cutting member of different shapes according to the shape of the vegetables to be processed, thereby satisfying user needs. Preferably, the processing chamber 11 is detachably mounted on the machine base 10, so that the processing chamber 11 can also be removed and cleaned.
[0047] Through the lateral opening 111 of the processing chamber 11, the vegetable cutting knife assembly 12 and the meat cutting knife assembly 13 can be installed and removed by pushing and pulling them horizontally from the side, which is labor-saving and convenient for the user. When the meat cutting knife assembly 13 is installed in place, the knife holder 131 can be limited at the same time, eliminating the step of separately limiting the position of the knife holder 131, making the installation process simple and efficient. Among them, the limiting rib 14 and the limiting groove 15 are plugged together. The structure on the knife holder 131 can directly cooperate with the processing chamber 11, or the knife holder 131 can cooperate with the processing chamber 11 through an intermediate structure, depending on the specific structural configuration.
[0048] It can be understood that in the present application, the vegetable cutting knife assembly may also include a knife holder and a rolling cutter group arranged in the knife holder, so as to achieve cutting of vegetables by rolling cutting.
[0049] As a preferred embodiment, when the food processor is in the meat-cutting mode, the vegetable cutter 122 is separated from the knife barrel 121, and the knife holder 131 is plugged into the knife barrel 121, so that the meat-cutting knife assembly 13 is inserted into the knife barrel 121. In other words, the knife barrel 121 can serve as a part of the vegetable cutter assembly 12 and can also be adapted to be installed with the meat-cutting knife assembly 13. The knife barrel 121 is located outside the meat-cutting knife assembly 13 to provide protection, reducing the probability of a user directly touching the blade of the meat-cutting knife assembly 13, improving user safety, and enriching the functions of the knife barrel 121.
[0050] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, when the user wants to cut meat, with the knife barrel 121 already detached, the user first pushes the meat cleaver assembly 13 into the knife barrel 121 for assembly. Then, the entire meat cleaver assembly 13 and knife barrel 121 are pushed into the processing chamber 11 to complete the installation. During the operation of the meat cleaver assembly 13, the knife barrel 121 and knife holder 131 are fixed, and only the rolling cutter assembly 132 moves to cut the meat.
[0051] As a preferred embodiment of this embodiment, a retaining rib 14 is protruded from the outer wall of the tool holder 131, and a slot 123 is provided on the inner wall of the knife barrel 121, extending axially along the knife barrel 121. The slot 123 extends radially through the knife barrel 121. When the retaining rib 14 engages with the slot 123, the retaining rib 14 radially extends out of the slot 123 to engage with the retaining groove 15. During the axial insertion of the meat cleaver assembly 13 into the knife barrel 121, the slot 123 guides the retaining rib 14, facilitating smooth installation and improving installation efficiency. Furthermore, the slot 123 provides clearance for the retaining rib 14, allowing the retaining rib 14 to engage radially with the slot 15, ensuring that the machining chamber 11 secures the tool holder 131.
[0052] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, after the meat cleaver assembly 13 and the knife barrel 121 are assembled, at least part of the limiting ribs 14 extend radially out of the slide groove 123. During the process of installing the meat cleaver assembly 13 and the knife barrel 121 into the processing cavity 11, the exposed limiting ribs 14 can slide along the limiting groove 15 on the inner wall of the processing cavity 11, and when installed in place, the knife holder 131 is fixed under the plug-in limiting action of the limiting ribs 14 and the limiting groove 15.
[0053] Furthermore, the open end of the knife barrel 121 for inserting the knife holder 131 is provided with a radially outwardly protruding guide rib 124, and a guide groove 125 is formed in the guide rib 124 for guiding the limiting rib 14 to the slide groove 123, and the guide groove 125 is connected to the slide groove 123. Figure 2As shown, by providing the guide groove 125 , the limiting rib 14 on the tool holder 131 is facilitated to quickly align with the guide groove 125 and transition to the slide groove 123 through the guide groove 125 , which can reduce the difficulty of insertion and improve the installation efficiency.
[0054] Furthermore, the side wall of the knife barrel 121 is provided with an installation opening 126 for installing the vegetable cutting knife 122. When the meat cutting knife assembly 13 is inserted into the knife barrel 121, the installation opening 126 is arranged toward the feeding port 112. Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, in the vegetable cutting state, the mounting opening 126 is used to install the vegetable cutting knife 122. In the meat cutting state, the mounting opening 126 is arranged toward the feeding opening 112. Specifically, the feeding opening 112 is located above the processing chamber 11. When the knife cylinder 121 is inserted into the processing chamber 11, the mounting opening 126 is directly below the feeding opening 112. This ensures that the meat pieces passing through the feeding opening 112 fall through the mounting opening 126 onto the rolling cutter assembly 132, ensuring a smooth meat cutting process. Preferably, the horizontal projection of the feeding opening 112 is within the horizontal projection range of the mounting opening 126, so that the fed material can be fully processed.
[0055] As a preferred embodiment, the sidewall of the blade holder 131 is provided with a protruding retaining rib 14, and the blade cylinder 121 is provided with a radially outwardly protruding rib. A groove is formed inside the rib to accommodate the retaining rib 14, and the retaining rib 14 engages with the retaining groove 15 via the rib. In this embodiment, the use of the groove to enclose the retaining rib 14 increases the area of the blade cylinder 121 wrapped around the meat cleaver assembly 13, optimizes the protective effect of the blade cylinder 121, prevents direct contact between the blade holder 131 and the processing chamber 11, and reduces wear on the blade holder 131 structure. Furthermore, the structural strength of the retaining rib 14 and the protruding rib is increased, preventing the retaining rib 14 from deforming and becoming unable to effectively engage with the retaining groove 15. Furthermore, the concave-convex structure provides for positional restraint between the processing chamber 11 and the blade cylinder 121, and between the blade cylinder 121 and the blade holder 131, thereby strengthening the securing effect between the blade holder 131 and the blade cylinder 121. This ensures that only the rolling cutter group 132 rotates during operation of the meat cleaver assembly 13, thereby improving the operational stability of the meat cleaver assembly 13.
[0056] In a preferred embodiment, the sidewall of the blade holder 131 is provided with a protruding retaining rib 14. The meat cleaver assembly 13 is independently mounted to the processing chamber 11 via the blade holder 131, and the retaining rib 14 directly engages with the retaining groove 15. In this embodiment, the knife barrel 121 can be omitted, and the knife holder 131 can be directly mounted to the processing chamber 11, eliminating the need for installation of the meat cleaver assembly 13 and the knife barrel 121, saving the user time and effort.
[0057] As a preferred embodiment, a stop rib is provided at one end of the limiting groove 15, distal from the opening 111, to limit the movement of the limit rib 14. The provision of the stop rib provides a sense of proper insertion of the meat cleaver assembly 13 into the processing chamber 11 when the user is installing the meat cleaver assembly 13, prompting the user to ensure proper installation and simultaneously ensuring axial positioning of the meat cleaver assembly 13.
[0058] Specifically, the stop rib can be formed by the bottom wall of the limiting groove 15, or can be set separately, for example, the stop rib is formed by radially extending along the side wall of the limiting groove 15, as long as a stop is provided for the limiting rib 14 to move into place.
[0059] As a preferred embodiment, the processing chamber 11 includes a vegetable cutting chamber 16 and a meat cutting chamber 17 which are arranged in sequence and connected in a transverse direction away from the output end of the machine base 10, and the limiting ribs 14 or the limiting grooves 15 are provided on the inner wall of the meat cutting chamber 17. Figures 1 to 3 As shown, by separately providing the vegetable cutting chamber 16 and the meat cutting chamber 17, vegetables and meat can be prevented from being easily contaminated by the odor of other ingredients when processed in the same chamber, which helps to ensure the taste of different ingredients.

[0064] In one embodiment, the processing chamber 11 includes a vegetable cutting chamber 16 and a meat cutting chamber 17 which are arranged in sequence and connected in a transverse direction away from the output end of the machine base 10. When the meat cleaver assembly 13 is located in the meat cutting chamber 17, the output end of the reduction gearbox 133 is far away from the output end of the machine base 10. Figure 2 As shown, a connecting rod 18 can be provided to serve as an intermediate transition. Specifically, one end of the connecting rod 18 is connected to the output end of the reduction gearbox 133, and the other end of the connecting rod 18 passes through the cutting chamber 16 and is connected to the output end of the machine base 10, thereby realizing the transmission from the output end of the machine base 10 to the meat cutting knife assembly 13.
