They can quickly cut various vegetables and fruits, save time, and improve the convenience of cooking. However, the popular household vegetable cutters on the market generally have a large size problem in the design of the drive mechanism, which directly affects the flexibility and applicability of the equipment.

[0003] Due to the complex structural design of traditional electric motors, including multiple parts such as stator, rotor, winding, etc., the entire vegetable cutter is often large in size. This design not only takes up limited kitchen space, but also limits the flexibility of the equipment, which is particularly obvious in small kitchens.

[0004] Since traditional motors are usually made of heavier materials, the overall weight of the vegetable cutter increases, which makes it inconvenient for users to use and store. In particular, it may become difficult for the elderly or people with physical disabilities to move and operate these devices.

[0005] Large electric motors consume more energy when running, which increases the household's energy expenses. This makes consumers pay more attention to the economy and energy efficiency of the equipment when choosing a household vegetable cutter.

[0006] The noise and vibration generated by traditional electric motors during operation will have a negative impact on the home environment, especially at times when a quiet environment is needed, the noise problem is particularly prominent.

[0032] The following describes the embodiments of the present invention in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0033] like Figures 1 to 17 As shown, the driving mechanism of this embodiment includes a driving module 2 and an output end 21 provided on the driving module 2, the driving module 2 includes a driving housing 22, a driving motor 23 and a transmission assembly 24, the driving motor 23 and the transmission assembly 24 are both provided in the driving housing 22, the transmission assembly 24 is provided between the driving motor 23 and the output end 21, the driving motor 23 is connected to the output end 21 through the transmission assembly 24, and the transmission assembly 24 includes a first transmission gear 241 provided on the driving motor 23, a second transmission gear 242 provided on the output end 21 and a transmission gear set 243 provided between the first transmission gear 241 and the second transmission gear 242.

[0034] Specifically, the driving motor 23 generates rotational power and drives the first transmission gear 241 to rotate. The first transmission gear 241 drives the transmission gear set 243 to rotate. The transmission gear set 243 further adjusts and transmits power. Finally, the power is transmitted to the second transmission gear 242 through the transmission gear set 243 and drives the output end 21 to rotate.

[0035] Multiple transmission gears serve as a transmission component 24 between the drive motor 23 and the output end 21. Through the multi-stage gear design of the transmission component 24, the gear set can amplify the torque and reduce the speed, and can achieve flexible adjustment of speed and torque while ensuring power transmission efficiency. The precise design and manufacturing of the gears reduce vibration and noise during operation, ensuring smooth and reliable operation of the equipment. Therefore, a smaller motor can be used to drive a larger load, which can reduce the size of the motor. In addition, all components are compactly integrated in the drive housing 22, which can save the assembly volume of the drive mechanism, thereby improving the compactness of the drive mechanism, which is conducive to the miniaturization of the vegetable cutter and the compact overall layout.

[0036] Specifically, the drive housing 22 can protect internal components from external damage, and all components are compactly integrated in the drive housing 22, which can also reduce vibrations generated when the drive mechanism is in operation.

[0037] Furthermore, the modular design of compactly integrating all components within the drive housing 22 facilitates overall disassembly, replacement, and inspection of the drive module 2, thereby improving the maintainability of the equipment.

[0038] like Figures 1 to 17 As shown, the transmission gear set 243 of this embodiment includes a plurality of duplex gears, each of which includes an internal gear and an external gear, and the size of the external gear on each of the duplex gears is larger than that of the internal gear.

[0039] Specifically, the structural design of the double gear is simple, making its manufacturing and installation process relatively easy. Using the double gear as the transmission gear set 243 can effectively reduce costs.

[0040] Furthermore, the duplex gears can efficiently convert the high-speed rotation of the motor into a low-speed, high-torque output, and the duplex gears can maintain a stable speed during operation, reducing vibration and imbalance, and improving the smooth operation of the equipment.

[0041] Due to the simple structure and design of the duplex gear, the duplex gear exhibits good reliability during use, reduces the occurrence of failures, and the maintenance of the duplex gear is relatively simple.

[0042] like Figures 1 to 17As shown, the duplex gears of this embodiment include a first duplex gear 2431, a second duplex gear 2432, and a third duplex gear 2433. The second duplex gear 2432 is located between the first duplex gear 2431 and the third duplex gear 2433. There is at least one second duplex gear 2432. The outer gear of the first duplex gear 2431 engages with the first transmission gear 241, and the inner gear of the first duplex gear 2431 engages with the outer gear of the adjacent second duplex gear 2432.

[0043] The internal gear of the second duplex gear 2432 engages with the external gear of the adjacent second duplex gear 2432 , or the internal gear of the second duplex gear 2432 engages with the external gear of the third duplex gear 2433 ;

[0044] The internal gear of the third dual gear 2433 is engaged with the second transmission gear 242 .

[0045] Specifically, the driving motor 23 drives the first transmission gear 241 to rotate, and the first transmission gear 241 transmits power to the outer gear of the first double gear 2431. Then, the inner gear of the first double gear 2431 drives the second transmission gear 2432 engaged with it. The continuous meshing process transmits power through the second transmission gear 2432 to the third double gear 2433 engaged with it. Then, the inner gear of the third double gear 2433 drives the second transmission gear 242 to rotate to drive the drive output end 21.

[0046] The double gear design can realize multi-stage transmission, optimize the adjustment of speed and torque, and flexibly adjust the transmission characteristics by increasing or decreasing the number of the second double gears.

[0047] Specifically, the design of the multi-stage gear can achieve efficient transmission in a limited space, improve the integration of the equipment, further reduce the volume of the drive module 2, and make the vegetable cutter more compact.

[0048] like Figures 1 to 17 As shown, the number of the second double gears 2432 in this embodiment is two or more, and the second double gear 2432 that engages with the outer gear of the third double gear 2433 is opposite in direction to the other second double gears 2432, so that the third double gear 2433 is located between multiple second double gears 2432. With such a design, the assembly space occupied by the transmission component 24 in the drive housing 22 can be further reduced.

[0049] Specifically, through the clever arrangement of gears, the space occupied by the gears in the assembly cavity 221 is reduced, the overall structural volume of the transmission component 24 in the drive housing is reduced, and the space utilization of the transmission component 24 in the drive housing 22 is improved, making the entire transmission system more compact and suitable for use in limited space.

[0050] By optimizing the assembly direction of the gears and arranging them tightly, efficient power transmission and reduced energy loss are ensured.

[0051] like Figures 1 to 17 As shown, the driving motor 23 and the multiple double gears of this embodiment are all arranged around the outer side of the second transmission gear 242.

[0052] In this embodiment, the drive motor 23 and multiple double gears are all arranged around the outside of the second transmission gear 242, effectively utilizing the vertical and horizontal space inside the drive housing 22, minimizing the assembly space occupied by the drive motor 23 and the transmission assembly 24 inside the drive housing 22, reducing the gap between components, making the internal structure of the drive module 2 more compact, and effectively reducing the volume of the drive module 2, which is conducive to the miniaturization of the vegetable cutter and the compact overall layout.

[0053] Furthermore, the layout of various components around a center can reduce unnecessary power loss and improve overall transmission efficiency. This design also makes the power transmission path more direct and efficient. The centralized layout of components facilitates quick disassembly and maintenance, reducing maintenance time and complexity and improving the practicality of the equipment.

[0054] Preferably, the driving motor 23 of this embodiment can adopt a three-series motor. Through the combination of the above-mentioned double gear sets, the driving motor 23 adopts a three-series motor and can achieve the effect of a five-series motor, providing sufficient cutting power for the vegetable cutter and effectively reducing production costs. Moreover, the volume of the three-series motor is smaller than that of the five-series motor, which can make the driving module flat and miniaturized, which is conducive to the miniaturization of the vegetable cutter.

[0055] like Figures 1 to 17 As shown, an assembly cavity 221 is provided in the driving housing 22 of this embodiment, and the driving motor 23 and the transmission assembly 24 are both provided in the assembly cavity 221 .

[0056] The assembly cavity 221 is an area inside the drive housing 22 specifically used to accommodate the transmission assembly 24 and the drive motor 23. The goal is to concentrate all transmission-related components in one space and optimize the equipment structure.

[0057] The drive motor 23 is arranged near the inner wall of the assembly cavity 221 . This design can save space in the central area of ​​the assembly cavity 221 , ensure that the transmission component 24 has sufficient installation space, and facilitate the layout of the transmission component 24 .

[0058] like Figures 1 to 17 As shown, the assembly cavity 221 of this embodiment includes a transmission cavity 222 and an electrical cavity 223 that are independent of each other. A connecting hole 224 is provided in the drive housing 22, which can connect the transmission cavity 222 and the electrical cavity 223. The transmission component 24 is arranged in the transmission cavity 222, and the drive motor 23 is arranged in the electrical cavity 223. A motor shaft is provided on the drive motor 23, and the motor shaft passes through the connecting hole 224 and is connected to the transmission component 24 for transmission (that is, the motor shaft is connected to the first transmission gear 241). A power supply component 25 that can supply power to the drive motor 23 is provided in the electrical cavity 223. The independent transmission cavity and electrical cavity design can effectively improve the stability and safety of the system. The independent cavity design makes the inspection and replacement of each component more convenient, thereby reducing the maintenance cost.

[0059] Furthermore, the direct connection between the motor shaft 231 and the transmission assembly 24 through the connecting hole 224 optimizes the power transmission efficiency and reduces energy loss.

[0060] Preferably, the power supply component 25 includes a battery 251.

[0061] Preferably, the power supply component 25 also includes a control circuit board 252, the battery 251 is electrically connected to the control circuit board 252, and the control circuit board 252 is electrically connected to the drive motor 23, ensuring that the battery can effectively transmit electrical energy to the control circuit board. The control circuit board controls the operating status of the motor through instructions to ensure that it works according to a predetermined program.

[0062] The design of the control circuit board 252 enables the system to achieve intelligent control, and the user can adjust the working mode of the vegetable cutter through simple operations.

[0063] The control circuit board can have built-in overload protection and short circuit protection functions to ensure the safety and reliability of the motor during operation.

[0064] By optimizing the power management between the battery 251 and the control circuit board 252, the battery usage efficiency can be improved and the working time of the device can be extended.

[0065] Preferably, a driving button 253 is provided on the control circuit board 252, and a pressing button 15 corresponding to the driving button 253 is provided on the vegetable cutter housing 1. When the driving module 2 is assembled into the vegetable cutter housing 1, the pressing button 15 is aligned with the driving button 253. The user can press the pressing button 15 to press the driving button 253, so that the control circuit board 252 controls the start and stop of the driving motor 23.

[0066] Preferably, the power supply component 25 also includes a charging port 254, through which the user can charge the battery 251, so that the vegetable cutter can work wirelessly, thereby improving the convenience and flexibility of the vegetable cutter, and the user can use the device in different environments without being restricted by the power cord.

[0067] like Figures 1 to 17 As shown, a vegetable cutter of this embodiment includes a vegetable cutter body and the driving mechanism as described above, and a first connecting component 4 is provided between the vegetable cutter body and the driving module 2 to enable the two to be detachably connected.

[0068] Specifically, by setting a first connecting component 4 between the vegetable cutter body and the driving module 2, the driving module 2 can be detachably connected to the vegetable cutter body. Through the design of the first connecting component, the driving module 2 and the vegetable cutter body can be quickly disassembled and combined, which is convenient for users to clean, maintain or replace modules of the household combination vegetable cutter. Due to the detachable design, users can easily replace faulty parts without sending the entire device for repair, reducing maintenance costs and time, and significantly improving the user experience by reducing downtime and providing more functional options.

[0069] Preferably, the vegetable cutter body includes a vegetable cutter shell 1 and a vegetable cutting module 3 arranged on the vegetable cutter shell 1. The first connecting component 4 enables the driving module 2 to be detachably assembled on the vegetable cutter shell 1. The driving module 2 can be connected to the vegetable cutting module 3 through the output end 21.

[0070] The modular design allows users to replace or upgrade the drive module 2 according to their needs to adapt to the cutting requirements of different ingredients and enhance the functional diversity and applicability of the equipment.

[0071] Furthermore, the detachable design of the vegetable cutter body and the driving module 2 makes it easy for the user to remove the driving module 2 and thoroughly clean the vegetable cutting module 3 of the vegetable cutter body to ensure hygiene.

[0072] like Figures 1 to 17 As shown, the first connecting assembly 4 of this embodiment includes a storage cavity 11 provided on the vegetable cutter housing 1 , and the driving module 2 is partially or completely assembled into the storage cavity 11 .

[0073] Specifically, the receiving cavity 11 is used to accommodate and fix the driving module 2 so that it is firmly connected to the vegetable cutter housing 1.

[0074] Preferably, the vegetable cutter housing 1 is provided with an assembly port 16 communicating with the storage cavity 11, and the drive module 2 can enter and exit the storage cavity 11 through the assembly port. The storage cavity 11 can provide additional support for the drive module 2, reduce the vibration and noise generated when the drive module 2 is working, and improve the user experience.

[0075] Furthermore, the combination of the storage cavity 11 and the assembly port can provide a guide for assembling the drive module 2 on the vegetable cutter housing 1, so that the user can complete the installation and disassembly without complicated operations and excessive attention, saving time and energy.

[0076] Preferably, in this embodiment, the driving module 2 is completely assembled into the storage cavity 11, so that the driving module 2 can be hidden in the vegetable cutter housing 1, hiding the redundant structure and making the appearance of the device more neat and modern.

[0077] In other embodiments, the driving module 2 is partially hidden in the storage cavity 11, which makes the appearance of the device more technological, saves the volume of the vegetable cutter housing 1, and saves production costs.

[0078] Preferably, an operating member is further provided on the back of the driving module 2 , and the user can use the operating member to insert or pull the driving module 2 into or out of the storage cavity 11 through the assembly opening 16 .

[0079] Preferably, the operating member includes a pulling protrusion 26 provided on the back of the driving module 2 . By pulling the protrusion 26 , the driving module 2 can be pulled out of the receiving cavity 11 through the assembly opening 16 .

[0080] Preferably, a hidden groove 27 is further provided on the back of the driving module 2, and the pulling protrusion 26 is located in the hidden groove 27. With such a design, the pulling protrusion 26 can be hidden in the hidden groove 27. This design is not only beautiful, but also can prevent the pulling protrusion 26 from accidental collision or damage during storage.

[0081] Preferably, the vegetable cutter housing 1 of this embodiment is further provided with an avoidance hole 12 which communicates with the storage cavity 11. The output end 21 can pass through the avoidance hole 12 and be transmission-connected with the vegetable cutting module 3. The design of the avoidance hole 12 ensures the flexible connection between the output end 21 and the vegetable cutting module 3. After the output end 21 passes through the avoidance hole 12, it is seamlessly docked with the vegetable cutting module 3, thereby improving the efficiency of power transmission. The user only needs to perform simple insertion and docking actions to complete the installation of the vegetable cutting module 3 and the driving module 2, thereby reducing the difficulty of use. Moreover, the clever avoidance hole design makes the overall structure of the vegetable cutter more compact, thereby reducing the space occupied by the equipment.

[0082] like Figures 1 to 17 As shown, the first connecting component 4 of this embodiment includes a press-lock buckle 41 and a locking protrusion 42. The press-lock buckle 41 includes a locking buckle shell 411, a latch component 412 and a limiting component. The latch component 412 is slidably connected to the locking buckle shell 411. Two latches 414 are movably provided on the latch component 412, and a pressing portion 413 located between the two latches 414 is provided on the latch component 412. The limiting component is provided between the latch component 412 and the locking buckle shell 411. When the vegetable cutter shell 1 is connected to the driving module 2, the locking protrusion 42 can press the pressing portion 413 to move the latch component 412 into the locking buckle shell 411, and make the two latches 414 approach each other and clamp the locking protrusion 42. The limiting component can maintain the two latches 414 in a state of clamping the locking protrusion 42.

[0083] Specifically, when the driving module 2 is assembled to the vegetable cutter housing 1, the locking protrusion 42 can press the pressing part 413 on the snap component relative to each other, which makes the snap component 412 slide toward the inside of the locking buckle housing 411. During the sliding process, the two snap parts 414 are forced by the side walls of the locking buckle housing 411 to approach each other and clamp the locking protrusion 42. At this time, the limiting component locks the position of the snap component 412 so that it no longer slides at the locking buckle housing 411, thereby achieving a firm connection between the driving module 2 and the vegetable cutter housing 1.

[0084] Furthermore, the function of the limiting component is to ensure that the fastener remains clamped and does not loosen after the external force is removed.

[0085] When the driving module 2 needs to be removed from the vegetable cutter housing 1, it is only necessary to press the driving module 2 again. Under the driving force of the pressing, the locking protrusion 42 can again press the pressing part 413 on the snap component. At this time, the limiting component is converted to the unlocked state and can drive the snap component 412 to move away from the locking buckle housing 411. During the sliding process, the two snap components 414 no longer abut against the side walls of the locking buckle housing 411, move away from each other, and no longer clamp the locking protrusion 42. The snap component 412 moves away from the vegetable cutter housing 1 through the force of the pressing part 413 on the locking protrusion 42, thereby removing the driving module 2 from the vegetable cutter housing 1. With this design, the user only needs to press simply to realize the loading and unloading between the driving module 2 and the vegetable cutter housing 1, which simplifies the operation steps.

[0086] Preferably, the press-lock buckle 41 can adopt the press-lock buckle of the existing technology, and its limiting component can adopt a hook provided on the snap component 412, a guide groove provided in the locking buckle shell 411, and an elastic member provided between the snap component 412 and the locking buckle shell 411. The guide groove is provided with a clamping position and an unlocking position. When the hook moves to the clamping position on the guide groove, the snap component clamps the locking protrusion 42. At this time, the elastic member is in an elastic compression state. When the drive module 2 is pressed again, the hook disengages from the clamping position in the guide groove. At this time, the elastic member elastically recovers and drives the hook to move to the unlocking position on the guide groove. The snap component no longer clamps the locking protrusion 42.

[0087] Preferably, the push-lock buckle 41 may also adopt other types of structures, such as:

[0088] Rotary locking structure, which is locked by rotating parts (such as knobs or rotating rings), usually requires manual rotation of a certain angle to fix or release the lock;

[0089] Sliding lock structure, which uses a sliding device, usually a locking member moving within a sliding track or slot, to achieve locking and unlocking by linear sliding;

[0090] Magnetic locking structure, using the adsorption force of magnets to achieve connection and separation, no mechanical operation is required, just bring the two pieces close together to lock;

[0091] Push-button locking structure activates the internal locking mechanism by pressing a button. The button operation is easy and can be completed with one hand.

[0092] You can choose the appropriate design according to your actual needs, and I will not go into details here.

[0098] Preferably, the second connecting component 5 of this embodiment includes two oppositely arranged first card blocks 51 provided on the driving module 2 and two oppositely arranged second card blocks 52 provided on the cutting module 3. The two first card blocks 51 are respectively provided on both sides of the output end 21. The first card blocks 51 and the second card blocks 52 correspond one to one, and the first card blocks 51 can be engaged with the corresponding second card blocks 52.

[0099] Specifically, through the engagement of the first card block 51 and the second card block 52, the vegetable cutting module and the driving module can be quickly connected and disassembled, which simplifies user operation, is easy to maintain, and reduces downtime. In addition, the vegetable cutting module is precisely docked with the driving module through the card block system to ensure effective power transmission.

[0100] Furthermore, the block connection ensures stability and precision, reduces failures caused by loose connections, provides smooth power transmission, and improves cutting efficiency.

[0101] Preferably, in this embodiment, the driving module 2 is arranged in the storage cavity 11, and the vegetable cutter housing 1 is provided with a through hole 13 for the first card block 51 to extend out of the storage cavity 11. The first card block 51 extends out of the storage cavity 11 through the through hole 13 and is engaged with the second card block 52, which has the advantages of simple structure and easy operation.

[0102] Preferably, in this embodiment, a sliding groove 53 is provided on the first card block 51, and an opening 54 communicating with the sliding groove 53 is provided on the top of the first card block 51.
