[0036] To make the above-mentioned purposes, features, and advantages of the present application more clearly understood, the following detailed description of specific embodiments of the present application is provided in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. First, it should be noted that directional terms such as "up," "down," "left," "right," "front," "rear," "inside," "outside," "top," and "bottom" mentioned or potentially mentioned in this specification are defined relative to the structures shown in the accompanying drawings. These are relative concepts and may vary depending on their location and usage. Therefore, these or other directional terms should not be interpreted as restrictive.
[0037] In this application, the terms "installed," "set," "arranged," "provided with," "connected," "connected," and "engaged" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to fixed connections, removable connections, or integral structures; mechanical connections or electrical connections; direct connections, indirect connections through an intermediary, or internal communication between two devices, elements, or components. Those skilled in the art will understand the specific meanings of these terms in this application based on the specific circumstances.
[0038] Figure 1 The structure of the food slicing device disclosed in this application is shown. Figure 1 and Figure 2As can be clearly seen in the figure, the food slicing device 10 is composed of a housing 100, a motor 200, a bracket 300, a blade 400 and a tray 500. The motor 200 is fixed to the housing 100 and has an output shaft 210. Driven by the motor 200, the output shaft 210 can operate at a first speed. The bracket 300 is connected to the output shaft 210 of the motor 200 via a first transmission mechanism 600, so that the bracket 300 operates at a second speed under the drive of the motor 200, wherein the second speed is less than the first speed. The blade 400 is rotatably mounted on the bracket 300 and is connected to the output shaft 210 of the motor 200 via a second transmission mechanism 700, so that the blade 400 operates at a third speed under the drive of the motor 200, wherein the third speed is greater than, equal to or less than the first speed. In addition, the tray 500 can operate synchronously with the bracket 300. For example, the tray 500 is detachably mounted on the bracket 300, and the tray 500 has an opening 510. The openings 510 are arranged below the blade 400 at a first preset distance for discharging the cut food. For example, the cross-sectional area of the opening 510 can be designed to be equal to or larger than the cross-sectional area of the blade 400. It should be noted that the food slicing device of the present application drives the bracket to rotate at a speed lower than the motor output shaft through a single motor, and drives the blade to rotate at a speed higher than the motor output shaft, thereby greatly improving the efficiency of the food slicing operation. In addition, the food slicing device of the present application has a simple structure, low cost, high integration, and also has product aesthetics.
[0039] In combination with the above embodiment, in other optional embodiments, the first transmission mechanism 600 is a planetary gear structure, and the planetary gear structure includes: a ring gear housing 610 and a first-stage planetary gear set 620, a second-stage planetary gear set 630, a third-stage planetary gear set 640 and a fourth-stage planetary gear set 650 located in the ring gear housing 610 and connected in sequence. Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown. The first-stage planetary gear set 620 is provided with a power input end 660, which is fixedly connected to the output shaft 210 of the motor 200 via a rotating shaft 670. An overload protection device (not shown) is provided between the power input end 660 and the sun gear 621 of the first-stage planetary gear set 620. The overload protection device can adopt a magnetic attraction structure to prevent damage to the gears of the planetary gear structure and / or the blade 400 when cutting hard food. Specifically, a first magnet (not shown) is provided on the side of the power input end 660 facing the sun gear 621 of the first-stage planetary gear set 620, and a second magnet (not shown) is provided on the sun gear 621 of the first-stage planetary gear set 620 to match the first magnet. The first magnet and the second magnet generate a magnetic attraction force, so that the sun gear 621 of the first-stage planetary gear set 620 and the power input end 660 are kept fixed by magnetic attraction. When the food slicing device 10 needs to cut hard objects such as bones and frozen meat, once the resistance encountered by the blade 400 in cutting the food exceeds the magnetic attraction between the first magnet and the second magnet, the adsorption of the first magnet and the second magnet will be disconnected, and the sun gear 621 of the first-stage planetary gear set 620 and the power input end 660 will slip against each other, so that the gears of the planetary gear structure and / or the blade 400 are not easily damaged when cutting hard food. In addition, the four-stage planetary gear set 650 is provided with a power output end 680, and the power output end 680 can be fixedly connected to the bracket 300 by, for example, welding, bolting or riveting. By providing a first-stage planetary gear set, a second-stage planetary gear set, a third-stage planetary gear set and a fourth-stage planetary gear set to reduce the rotation speed of the motor output shaft in a step-by-step manner, the motor's moment of inertia ratio can be effectively reduced and the deceleration effect can be improved.
[0040] like Figure 5 As shown, the second transmission mechanism 700 includes an adapter 710, a conveyor belt 720 and a driven gear 730. The adapter 710 is fixedly connected to the output shaft 210 of the motor 200. For example, the adapter 710 can be mounted on the output shaft 210 of the motor 200 by means of a hexagonal hole 712 (see FIG. Figure 6 and Figure 7), thereby ensuring that the two can rotate together. In this case, the rotating shaft 670 of the first transmission mechanism 600 can be fixedly connected to the adapter 710. For example, the rotating shaft 670 can be inserted into the opening 713 at the top of the adapter 710, thereby ensuring that the rotating shaft 670, the adapter 710, and the output shaft 210 of the motor 200 can operate at the same speed. In addition, the adapter 710 is provided with an external gear structure 711, and the driven gear 730 is rotatably mounted on the bracket 300 and fixedly connected to the blade 400, wherein the external gear structure 711 of the adapter 710 is connected to the driven gear 730 by the conveyor belt 720, thereby cutting the food through the high-speed rotating blade. Furthermore, the blade 400 has a circular cross-sectional shape and is coaxially arranged or fixedly connected to the driven gear 730 , so that the blade 400 is driven by the driven gear 730 to rotate at a speed higher than the output shaft 210 of the motor 200 .
[0041] In order to prevent the food to be cut from sticking to the top of the blade 400 and affecting the slicing efficiency, the food slicing device 10 also includes a baffle 800 with a circular cross-sectional shape, which is fixed to the bracket 300 and arranged above the blade 400 at a second preset distance. The baffle 800 is concentrically arranged with the blade 400, and the radius of the baffle 800 is smaller than the radius of the blade 400 to prevent the cutting edge of the blade 400 from being blocked by the baffle 800.
[0042] Continue to refer Figure 8 In the food slicing device 10 according to the present application, there are two blades 400 . These two blades 400 are of the same size and are symmetrically arranged relative to the center of the support 300 . Of course, those skilled in the art will readily appreciate that the number of blades 400 is not limited to two and may be three, four, five, six, or more. Furthermore, the size, shape, and position of the blades 400 on the support may be adjusted based on actual conditions.
[0043] In such Figures 9 to 11In the illustrated embodiment, the housing 100 includes an upper housing 110 and a lower housing 120, and the upper housing 110 and the lower housing 120 are fixedly connected by snapping. For example, the upper housing 110 is provided with a raised snap-fitting portion 113 and the lower housing 120 is provided with a mating portion (not shown) that matches the snap-fitting portion 113. When the blade 400 needs to be replaced, the operator does not need to use any tools, and only needs to remove the snap-fitting portion 113 of the upper housing 110 from the mating portion of the lower housing 120 to complete the disassembly of the upper housing, saving time and effort. In addition, the upper housing 110 may also be provided with one or more guide cavities 111 for guiding food to enter, and a hollow cavity 112 for installing the first transmission mechanism 600. The size, shape, number and position of the guide cavity 111 can be adjusted according to actual conditions. For example, the guide cavity 111 can be designed to have different aperture sizes. For example, a guide cavity with a small aperture can be used to place slender foods such as peppers, garlic, and onions so that such foods can be sliced horizontally when placed vertically, while a guide cavity with a large aperture can be used to place large pieces of food such as frozen meat and potatoes. Accordingly, an end cover 114 is provided on the top of the upper shell 110, and the end cover 114 is provided with an opening corresponding to the guide cavity 111. Furthermore, the ring gear shell 610 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the hollow cavity 112 by snapping. In addition, the lower shell 120 can be used to place the motor 200, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 shown.
[0044] Also refer to Figures 12 to 14 The tray 500 is fixed to the bracket 300 via bolts 520, allowing the first preset distance to be adjusted via the bolts 520. In this way, the operator can adjust the thickness of the cut food as needed. Specifically, the larger the first preset distance, the thicker the food slices; and the smaller the first preset distance, the thinner the food slices. Therefore, the food slicing device 10 not only cuts food quickly, but also ensures that the cut food is uniform in thickness, has a smooth surface, and is not prone to leaking water due to the distance between the blade and the tray.
[0045] Several specific embodiments have been listed above to illustrate the food slicing device of the present application in detail. These examples are intended solely to illustrate the principles and implementations of the present application and are not intended to limit the present application. Persons skilled in the art may make various modifications and improvements without departing from the spirit and scope of the present application. Therefore, all equivalent technical solutions are intended to fall within the scope of the present application and are defined by the claims of the present application.
