Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of food processor manufacturing, and in particular to a micro-pressure food processor with automatic feeding capability. Background Technology

[0002] In existing technologies, food processors such as soy milk makers usually grind the ingredients first and then heat and boil them, which takes a long time and cannot quickly process the ingredients. This is a headache for some busy working people. In addition, they cannot automatically add ingredients, making them inconvenient to operate and difficult to meet user needs. Utility Model Content

[0003] This invention addresses the problems of food processors being unable to process food quickly, lacking automatic ingredient dispensing, being inconvenient to operate, and failing to meet user needs by providing a micro-pressure food processor with automatic ingredient dispensing.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: a micro-pressure food processor with automatic feeding capability, comprising a food processor body and a cover body covering the food processor body, the cover body comprising a feeding bin and a cover assembly for closing the feeding bin, the feeding bin having a feeding inlet at the bottom, and the feeding bin having a gravity component that can be movable to block or detach from the feeding inlet.

[0005] As described above, the micro-pressure food processor with automatic feeding capability has a feeding hopper equipped with a limiting tube communicating with the feeding port, and the gravity component is located inside the limiting tube and can move axially along the limiting tube.

[0006] As described above, the micro-pressure food processor with automatic feeding function has a guide port at the bottom of the limiting tube, which is used to connect the limiting tube and the feeding bin.

[0007] As described above, the micro-pressure food processor with automatic feeding function has a feeding hopper equipped with a guide slope, which is used to guide the ingredients into the feeding port.

[0008] As described above, the automatic feeding micro-pressure food processor includes a first cover assembly with an exhaust vent on it. The exhaust vent corresponds to the limiting tube, and a pressure relief gap is formed between the end of the limiting tube and the first cover. The feed inlet, the discharge bin, the pressure relief gap, and the exhaust vent together form an exhaust channel.

[0009] As described above, the micro-pressure food processor with automatic feeding capability includes an exhaust section comprising an exhaust protrusion and a first exhaust hole disposed around the periphery of the exhaust protrusion.

[0010] As described above, the micro-pressure food processor with automatic feeding function has a first magnet on the first cover and a second magnet on the gravity component. The first magnet and the second magnet are magnetically coupled to make the gravity component fit against the exhaust section and block part of the exhaust section.

[0011] As described above, the automatic feeding micro-pressure food processor further includes a second cover assembly. The second cover has a second vent hole and is fitted onto the first cover, forming a pressure relief cavity between the second cover and the first cover.

[0012] As described above, the micro-pressure food processor with automatic feeding function has a protrusion on the side wall of the main body and a snap-fit ​​part extending from the periphery of the cover, which engages with the protrusion.

[0013] As described above, the micro-pressure food processor with automatic feeding function has a sealing ring between the feeding chamber and the cover assembly.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this technical solution are as follows: After adopting the structure of this utility model, since the cover seals the main body of the food processor, and the cover includes a feeding chamber and a cover assembly for sealing the feeding chamber, when food needs to be processed, the food is placed in the feeding chamber. After power is turned on, the liquid in the main body of the food processor is heated. At this time, the pressure inside the main body of the food processor continuously increases until the generated steam pushes open the gravity component. The inside of the main body of the food processor is in a state of slight pressure. Under slight pressure, the boiling point of the liquid can be increased, so that the food can be cooked quickly. After the gravity component is pushed open by the steam, the gravity component is separated from the feeding port. At this time, the food stored in the feeding chamber enters the main body of the food processor for grinding, realizing the function of automatic feeding, making the operation more convenient.

[0015] Additional aspects and advantages of this invention will be set forth in part in the description which follows, and in part will be obvious from the description, or may be learned by practice of the invention. Attached Figure Description

[0022] Figure 6 This is a perspective view of the present invention; Detailed Implementation

[0023] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0024] like Figures 1 to 6 The micro-pressure food processor shown includes a food processor body 1 and a cover 2 covering the food processor body 1. The cover 2 includes a feeding chamber 21 and a cover assembly 24 for closing the feeding chamber 21. The feeding chamber 21 has a feeding port 211 at the bottom and a gravity member 22 that can be moved to block or detach from the feeding port 211. With the structure of this utility model, since the cover seals the main body of the food processor, and the cover includes a feeding chamber and a cover assembly that seals the feeding chamber, when food needs to be processed, the food is placed in the feeding chamber. After power is turned on, the liquid in the main body of the food processor is heated. At this time, the pressure inside the main body of the food processor continuously increases until the generated steam pushes open the gravity component. The inside of the main body of the food processor is in a state of slight pressure. Under slight pressure, the boiling point of the liquid can be increased, allowing the food to be cooked quickly. After the gravity component is pushed open by the steam, it detaches from the feeding port. At this time, the food stored in the feeding chamber enters the main body of the food processor for grinding, realizing the function of automatic feeding and making operation more convenient.

[0025] As a specific implementation and not a limitation, in order to maintain a micro-pressure state inside the food processor body 1, the feeding chamber 21 is provided with a limiting tube 23 communicating with the feeding port 211. The gravity member 22 is disposed inside the limiting tube 23 and can move axially along the limiting tube 23. The bottom of the limiting tube 23 is provided with a guide port 231, which is used to connect the limiting tube 23 and the feeding chamber 21. Preferably, the gravity member 22 is a spherical part made of silicone. The silicone gravity member 22 can better fit the feeding port 211, so that when liquid is heated inside the food processor body 1, the pressure can rise more quickly until it pushes the gravity member 22 open, causing the gravity member 22 to detach from the feeding port 211. Then, the feeding chamber 21 connects to the food processor body 1, and the ingredients enter the food processor body from the feeding chamber 21 through the guide port 231, realizing automatic feeding. The limiting tube 23 can also limit the running trajectory of the gravity component 22, so that the gravity component 22 can move smoothly onto the cover assembly 24. Preferably, the guide port 231 is formed by three limiting plates 232 and the side wall of the discharge bin 21.

[0026] Furthermore, to reduce noise during steam discharge, the faceplate assembly 24 includes a first faceplate 241 with an exhaust section 2411. The exhaust section 2411 corresponds to the limiting tube 23, and a pressure relief gap 7 is formed between the end of the limiting tube 23 and the first faceplate 241. The feed inlet 211, the discharge bin 21, the pressure relief gap 7, and the exhaust section 2411 together form an exhaust channel 3. A smaller pressure relief gap 7 can effectively reduce vibration and avoid excessive noise.

[0027] Furthermore, the cover assembly 24 also includes a second cover 242, which has a second vent 2421. The second cover 242 is fitted onto the first cover 241, forming a pressure relief cavity 243 between the second cover 242 and the first cover 241. After heating, the pressure inside the food processor body 1 enters the pressure relief cavity 243 through the vent 2411 on the first cover 241, and is then discharged to the outside through the second vent 2421. The second vent 2421 of the second cover 242 is positioned away from the vent 2411 of the first cover 241, allowing the pressure relief cavity 243 to better reduce pressure and prevent excessive pressure from being directly discharged to the outside, which could pose a danger to the user. It also prevents dust and other debris from entering the food processor body 1.

[0028] Furthermore, to ensure that the interior of the food processor body remains under slight pressure after the gravity component 22 is pushed open by the steam inside the food processor body 1, the venting section 2411 includes a venting protrusion 24111 and a first venting hole 24112 disposed around the venting protrusion 24111. The first cover 241 is provided with a first magnet 24113, and the gravity component 22 is provided with a second magnet 221. The first magnet 24113 and the second magnet 221 magnetically cooperate to make the gravity component 22 adhere to the venting section 2411 and block a portion of the venting section 2411. After the gravity component 22 is lifted, it moves along the limiting tube 23 towards the first cover 241. When the gravity component 22 moves to the second cover 242, the second magnet 221 inside the gravity component 22 is attracted by the first magnet 24113 on the first cover 241, causing the gravity component 22 to fit against the exhaust protrusion 24111 and partially block the first exhaust hole 24112. However, since the gravity component 22 is spherical, it does not completely block the first exhaust hole 24112 when it blocks it. A small amount of steam can still be discharged from the first exhaust hole 24112, and there will be no dangerous situation where the pressure of the food processor body 1 is too high.

[0029] As a specific implementation and not a limitation, in order to allow the ingredients to enter the feed inlet 211 from the feeding bin 21 more effectively, the feeding bin 21 is provided with a guide slope 212, which is used to guide the ingredients into the feed inlet 211.

[0030] To further facilitate quick installation of the cover 2 onto the food processor body 1, the food processor body 1 has a protrusion 4 on its side wall, and the cover 2 has a snap-fit ​​portion 5 extending from its periphery. The snap-fit ​​portion 5 engages with the protrusion 4. When the cover 2 needs to be installed, simply align the snap-fit ​​portion 5 with the protrusion 4, rotate it, and the protrusion 4 will snap into the snap-fit ​​portion 5 for quick and secure installation.

[0031] Furthermore, a sealing ring 6 is provided between the feeding chamber 21 and the cover assembly 24. After the sealing ring 6 is installed, it can seal the food processor body 1, reducing pressure leakage inside the food processor body 1 and achieving rapid pressurization.

[0032] The specific working principle of this embodiment is as follows:

[0033] When food needs to be processed, remove the cover 2 from the main body 1 of the food processor, pour the liquid into the main body 1, and then fix the cover 2 to the main body 1. Open the cover assembly 24 and place the food into the feeding compartment 21. After starting the food processor, the liquid inside the main body 1 is heated. After heating, the internal pressure of the main body of the food processor continuously increases. When the pressure rises to a certain level, the steam will push the gravity component 22 open, and the gravity component 22 will detach from the feed inlet 211, causing the gravity component 22 to move along the limiting tube 23 to the first cover 241. At this time, the first magnet 24113 on the first cover 241 attracts the second magnet 221 on the gravity component 22 to block part of the first vent 24112, so that the inside of the main body 1 of the food processor is kept under slight pressure. At the same time, the food moves towards the feed inlet 211 through the guide slope 212 and finally enters the main body of the food processor for grinding. The steam in the main body 1 of the food processor enters the discharge chamber 21 through the inlet 211, then enters the pressure relief cavity 243 through the pressure relief gap 7 and the exhaust 2411, and finally exits to the outside through the second exhaust hole 2421 of the second cover 242. Figure 3 The direction of the arrow in the middle dashed line indicates the direction of pressure release.

[0034] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that this invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that it can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of this invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered illustrative and non-limiting in all respects, and the scope of this invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description. Thus, it is intended that all variations falling within the meaning and scope of equivalents of the claims be included within this invention.
