[0036] Figure 15 for Figure 14 A cross-sectional view along line AA. Detailed Implementation

[0037] The embodiments of this utility model will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0038] like Figures 1 to 15 As shown, the connecting mechanism of this embodiment includes a first connecting component 4 disposed between the main body of the vegetable cutter and the drive module 2. The first connecting component 4 includes a pressing locking buckle 41 and a locking protrusion 42. The pressing locking buckle 41 includes a locking buckle housing 411, a latching member 412, and a limiting member. The latching member 412 is slidably connected to the locking buckle housing 411. Two latching parts 414 are movably disposed on the latching member 412, and a pressing part 413 located between the two latching parts 414 is provided on the latching member 412. The limiting member is disposed between the latching member 412 and the locking buckle housing 411. When the drive module 2 is pressed, the locking protrusion 42 can press the pressing part 413, and the limiting member can drive the latching member 412 to move away from the locking buckle housing 411, and cause the two latching parts 414 to move away from the locking protrusion 42.

[0039] Specifically, when the drive module 2 is assembled onto the vegetable cutter housing 1, the locking protrusion 42 can press the pressing part 413 on the buckle member, which causes the buckle member 412 to slide into the locking buckle housing 411. During the sliding process, the two buckle members 414 are forced to move closer to each other by the side wall of the locking buckle housing 411 and clamp the locking protrusion 42. At this time, the limiting member locks the position of the buckle member 412 so that it no longer slides at the locking buckle housing 411, so as to achieve a firm connection between the drive module 2 and the vegetable cutter housing 1. In other words, the function of the limiting member is to ensure that the buckle remains clamped after the external force is removed and will not loosen.

[0040] When it is necessary to remove the drive module 2 from the vegetable cutter housing 1, simply press the drive module 2 again. Under the drive of the press, the locking protrusion 42 can press the pressing part 413 on the buckle member again. At this time, the limiting member switches to the unlocked state and can drive the buckle member 412 to move away from the locking buckle housing 411. During the sliding process, the two buckle pieces 414 no longer abut against the side wall of the locking buckle housing 411, move away from each other, and no longer clamp the locking protrusion 42. Moreover, the buckle member 412 moves away from the vegetable cutter housing 1 by the force of the pressing part 413 on the locking protrusion 42, thereby removing the drive module 2 from the vegetable cutter housing 1. With this design, the user can simply press to remove the drive module 2 from the vegetable cutter housing 1, simplifying the operation steps.

[0041] This design allows users to quickly connect or disconnect the drive module 2 from the main body of the vegetable cutter simply by pressing the drive module 2, without the need for professional tools, thus reducing the difficulty of operation. In the event of a problem, users can quickly unlock the connection between the drive module 2 and the main body of the vegetable cutter, replace the damaged parts, and send the machine for repair, avoiding the hassle of sending the entire machine for repair. This also minimizes the downtime of the equipment, ensures the normal operation of the vegetable cutter, and improves the user experience.

[0042] like Figures 1 to 15 As shown, the limiting component in this embodiment includes a hook 4121 on the buckle component 412, a guide groove 4111 in the locking buckle housing 411, and an elastic member 415 between the buckle component 412 and the locking buckle housing 411. The guide groove 4111 has a clamping position 4112. When the hook 4121 moves to the clamping position 4112 on the guide groove 4111, the buckle component 414 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 is disengaged from the clamping position in the guide groove. At this time, the elastic member recovers its elasticity and drives the buckle component 412 to move away from the locking buckle housing 411. The two buckle components 414 no longer clamp the locking protrusion 42.

[0043] Preferably, the press-lock buckle 41 can also adopt other types of structures, such as:

[0044] Rotary locking structures are locked by rotating components (such as knobs or rotating rings), and usually require manual rotation at a certain angle to fix or release the lock;

[0045] A sliding locking structure utilizes a sliding device, typically a locking element that moves within a sliding track or groove, to achieve locking and unlocking through linear sliding.

[0046] The magnetic locking structure uses the attraction force of magnets to connect and separate, requiring no mechanical operation; simply bring the two pieces close together to lock them.

[0047] The push-button locking structure activates the internal locking mechanism by pressing a button. The button operation is simple and can be completed with one hand.

[0048] You can choose the appropriate design based on your actual needs, which will not be elaborated here.

[0049] Preferably, the guide groove in this embodiment is also provided with an unlocking position 4113. When the drive module 2 is pressed again, the hook is disengaged from the clamping position in the guide groove, further compressing the elastic element. When the hook 4121 moves to the unlocking position 4113 on the guide groove 4111, the elastic element recovers its elasticity, driving the buckle component 412 to move away from the locking buckle housing 411.

[0050] like Figures 1 to 15 As shown, in this embodiment, a limiting component is also provided between the locking buckle housing 411 and the buckle member 412 to prevent the buckle member 412 from coming out of the locking buckle housing 411. With this design, the buckle member will not come out of the locking buckle housing due to external force or vibration during use, ensuring that the connection of the vegetable cutter is always firm and reliable.

[0051] Preferably, the limiting component of this embodiment includes an anti-detachment buckle 416 disposed on the outer wall of the buckle member 412 and an anti-detachment channel disposed on the locking buckle housing 411. The anti-detachment buckle 416 is engaged in the anti-detachment channel and can slide along the length direction of the anti-detachment channel. The anti-detachment buckle 416 can abut against the end of the anti-detachment channel near the locking protrusion 42, so that the buckle member 412 is kept in the locking buckle housing 411.

[0052] Specifically, the anti-detachment buckle can slide within the anti-detachment channel, allowing the buckle component to move smoothly when the user performs an unlocking operation. At the same time, it ensures that in the locked state, the anti-detachment buckle abuts against the end of the anti-detachment channel near the locking protrusion, further maintaining the stability of the buckle component.

[0053] likeFigures 1 to 15 As shown, the side wall of the locking buckle housing 411 in this embodiment is provided with a sliding through hole 417. The anti-detachment buckle 416 extends into the sliding through hole 417, and the anti-detachment channel is located within the sliding through hole 417. Specifically, the design of the sliding through hole ensures that the anti-detachment buckle can move within a controlled path, effectively preventing the buckle component from accidentally detaching. This allows the user to operate without worrying about the anti-detachment buckle getting stuck or detaching. The existence of the sliding through hole greatly simplifies the connection and unlocking process. By combining the anti-detachment channel with the sliding through hole, the connection mechanism can quickly respond to the user's operation during use, improving overall work efficiency. Furthermore, the sliding through hole 417 can provide a designated sliding path for the buckle component 412 within the locking buckle housing 411, serving as a guide. By combining the anti-detachment channel with the sliding through hole, the connection mechanism can quickly respond to the user's operation during use, improving overall work efficiency.

[0054] like Figures 1 to 15 As shown, in this embodiment, a guide slope 4161 is provided on one side of the anti-detachment buckle 416. The guide slope 4161 gradually slopes outward from the end of the anti-detachment buckle 416 away from the buckle member 414 towards the end of the anti-detachment buckle 416 near the buckle member 414. That is, the width of the end of the anti-detachment buckle 416 away from the buckle member 414 is smaller than the width of the end of the anti-detachment buckle 416 near the buckle member 414. With this design, the anti-detachment buckle 416 can quickly snap into the anti-detachment channel through the guide slope 4161. This allows the latching member 412 to be quickly assembled with the locking housing 411. Since the anti-detachment latch 416 is larger at the end near the latching member 414, when the anti-detachment latch 416 moves to the end of the anti-detachment channel near the locking protrusion 42, the end of the anti-detachment latch 416 near the latching member 414 can abut against the end of the anti-detachment channel near the locking protrusion 42, so that the latching member 412 remains in the locking housing 411, preventing the latching member 412 from coming out of the locking housing 411.

[0055] like Figures 1 to 15 As shown, a vegetable cutter according to this embodiment includes a vegetable cutter body, a drive module 2, and a connection mechanism as described in any of the above. The first connection component 4 is disposed between the vegetable cutter body and the drive module 2. The vegetable cutter body includes a vegetable cutter housing 1 and a vegetable cutting module 3 disposed on the vegetable cutter housing 1. The first connection component 4 enables the drive module 2 to be detachably mounted on the vegetable cutter housing 1. The drive module 2 is provided with an output end 21, which can be connected to the vegetable cutting module 3 in a transmission manner.

[0056] Specifically, by setting a first connecting component 4 between the main body of the vegetable cutter and the drive module 2, the drive module 2 can be detachably connected to the vegetable cutter housing 1, and the drive module 2 is connected to the vegetable cutting module 3 through the output end 21. Through the design of the first connecting component, the drive module 2 and the vegetable cutter housing 1 can be quickly disassembled and assembled, which makes it 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. By reducing downtime and providing more functional options, the user experience is significantly improved.

[0057] Furthermore, it adopts a modular design, allowing users to replace or upgrade the drive module 2 according to their needs, in order to adapt to the cutting requirements of different ingredients, thereby enhancing the functionality and applicability of the equipment.

[0058] Furthermore, the detachable design of the main body of the vegetable cutter and the drive module 2 makes it easy for users to remove the drive module 2 and thoroughly clean the vegetable cutting module 3 of the main body of the vegetable cutter to ensure hygiene.

[0059] like Figures 1 to 15 As shown, the first connecting component 4 in this embodiment also includes a storage cavity 11 disposed on the vegetable cutter housing 1, and the drive module 2 is partially or entirely assembled into the storage cavity 11.

[0060] Specifically, the receiving cavity 11 is used to accommodate and fix the drive module 2, so that it is securely connected to the vegetable cutter housing 1.

[0061] Preferably, the vegetable cutter housing 1 is provided with an assembly port 16 communicating with the storage cavity 11. 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.

[0062] Furthermore, the combination of the storage cavity 11 and the assembly port can guide the drive module 2 to be assembled on the vegetable cutter housing 1, allowing users to complete the installation and disassembly without complicated operations or excessive attention, saving time and effort.

[0063] Preferably, in this embodiment, all the drive modules 2 are assembled into the storage cavity 11, so that the drive modules 2 can be hidden in the vegetable cutter housing 1, hiding the redundant structure and making the appearance of the equipment neater and more modern.

[0064] In other embodiments, the drive module 2 is partially hidden inside the storage cavity 11, which makes the device look more technological and saves the volume of the vegetable cutter housing 1, thus saving production costs.

[0065] likeFigures 1 to 15 As shown, in this embodiment, the press-lock buckle 41 is provided on the drive module 2, and the locking protrusion 42 is provided on the main body of the vegetable cutter;

[0066] Alternatively, the locking protrusion 42 may be located on the drive module 2, and the pressing locking buckle 41 may be located on the main body of the vegetable cutter.

[0067] Preferably, in this embodiment, the pressing locking buckle 41 is provided on the drive module 2, and the locking protrusion 42 is provided in the storage cavity 11 of the vegetable cutter housing 1.

[0068] In other embodiments, the press-lock buckle 41 is disposed on the drive module 2, the locking protrusion 42 is disposed on the vegetable cutting module 3, and the vegetable cutter housing 1 is provided with a clearance hole for avoiding the locking protrusion 42 on the vegetable cutting module 3. Alternatively, the locking protrusion 42 is disposed on the drive module 2, and the press-lock buckle 41 is disposed in the storage cavity 11 of the vegetable cutter housing 1. Alternatively, the press-lock buckle 41 is disposed on the vegetable cutting module 3, and the vegetable cutter housing 1 is provided with a clearance hole for avoiding the press-lock buckle 41 on the vegetable cutting module 3. Different setting methods can be selected according to the specific structure of the equipment and the needs of use. By adopting the cooperative method of press-lock buckle 41 and locking protrusion 42, simple and quick locking and unlocking can be achieved, which is convenient for user operation.

[0069] Preferably, the back of the drive module 2 is also provided with an operating component, which allows the user to insert or pull the drive module 2 into or out of the storage cavity 11 through the assembly port 16.

[0070] Preferably, the operating component includes a pull protrusion 26 located on the back of the drive module 2. By pulling the protrusion 26, the drive module 2 can be pulled out of the storage cavity 11 through the assembly port 16.

[0071] Preferably, the back of the drive module 2 is also provided with a hidden groove 27, and the pull protrusion 26 is located in the hidden groove 27. With this design, the pull protrusion 26 can be hidden in the hidden groove 27. This design is not only aesthetically pleasing, but also prevents the pull protrusion 26 from being accidentally bumped or damaged during storage.

[0072] Preferably, the vegetable cutter housing 1 of this embodiment is also provided with a clearance hole 12 communicating with the storage cavity 11. The output end 21 can pass through the clearance hole 12 and be connected to the vegetable cutting module 3 for transmission. The design of the clearance 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 clearance hole 12, it is seamlessly connected with the vegetable cutting module 3, which improves the efficiency of power transmission. Users only need to perform simple insertion and docking actions to complete the installation of the vegetable cutting module 3 and the drive module 2, which reduces the difficulty of use. In addition, the ingenious clearance hole design makes the overall structure of the vegetable cutter more compact and reduces the space occupied by the equipment.

[0073] like Figures 1 to 15 As shown, the drive module 2 in this embodiment includes a drive housing 22, a drive motor 23, and a transmission assembly 24. The drive motor 23 and the transmission assembly 24 are both disposed inside the drive housing 22. The transmission assembly 24 is disposed between the drive motor 23 and the output terminal 21. The drive motor 23 is connected to the output terminal 21 through the transmission assembly 24.

[0074] Specifically, when the drive motor 23 starts, it transmits power to the output end 21 through the transmission component 24. The output end 21 is then connected to the cutting module 3 through the clearance hole 12 to realize the cutting function.

[0075] Specifically, the drive housing 22 can protect the internal components from external damage, and by compactly integrating all the components within the drive housing 22, it can save space in the device and reduce the vibration generated during device operation.

[0076] Furthermore, the modular design, which integrates all components compactly within the drive housing 22, facilitates the overall disassembly, maintenance, and inspection of the drive module 2, thereby improving the maintainability of the equipment.

[0077] like Figures 1 to 15 As shown, the transmission component 24 in this embodiment includes a first transmission gear 241 disposed on the drive motor 23, a second transmission gear 242 disposed on the output end 21, and a transmission gear set 243 disposed between the first transmission gear 241 and the second transmission gear 242.

[0078] Specifically, the drive 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.

[0079] Specifically, through the multi-stage gear design of the transmission component 24, it is possible to achieve flexible adjustment of speed and torque while ensuring power transmission efficiency. Furthermore, the precision design and manufacturing of the gears reduce vibration and noise during operation, ensuring smooth and reliable operation of the equipment.

[0080] Furthermore, the gear assembly is designed to be modular, making it easy to disassemble, inspect, and replace, thus reducing maintenance difficulty and cost.

[0081] Preferably, the transmission gear set 243 of this embodiment includes a plurality of double gears, each of which includes an internal gear and an external gear, and the external gear on each of the double gears is larger in size than the internal gear.

[0082] The double gear includes a first double gear 2431, a second double gear 2432, and a third double gear 2433. The second double gear 2432 is located between the first double gear 2431 and the third double gear 2433. There is at least one second double gear 2432. The outer gear of the first double gear 2431 meshes with the first transmission gear 241, and the inner gear of the first double gear 2431 meshes with the outer gear of the adjacent second double gear 2432.

[0083] The inner gear of the second double gear 2432 meshes with the outer gear of the adjacent second double gear 2432, or the inner gear of the second double gear 2432 meshes with the outer gear of the third double gear 2433;

[0084] The internal gear of the third double gear 2433 engages with the second transmission gear 242.

[0085] Specifically, the drive 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 that meshes with it. The continuous meshing process transmits power through the second transmission gear 2432 to the third double gear 2433 that meshes with it. Then, the inner gear of the third double gear 2433 drives the second transmission gear 242 to rotate, thereby driving the drive output end 21.

[0086] The design employs a double-gear configuration, enabling multi-stage transmission, optimizing speed and torque adjustments. Furthermore, by increasing or decreasing the number of second double gears, transmission characteristics can be flexibly adjusted.

[0087] Specifically, the multi-stage gear design enables efficient transmission within a limited space, improves the integration of the equipment, further reduces the size of the drive module 2, and makes the vegetable cutter more compact.

[0088] Specifically, the advantages of double gear sets mainly include simple structure, high transmission efficiency, good reliability, simple maintenance, stable speed, and high transmission pressure. Double gear sets can efficiently convert the high-speed rotation of the electric motor into low-speed, high-torque output.

[0089] Due to its simple structure and design, the double gear exhibits good reliability during use, reducing the occurrence of failures.

[0090] Furthermore, the double gear set can maintain a stable speed during operation, reducing vibration and imbalance, and improving the smoothness of equipment operation.

[0091] Preferably, in this embodiment, the drive housing 22 is provided with an assembly cavity 221, and the drive motor 23 and the transmission assembly 24 are both located in the assembly cavity 221. The assembly cavity 221 is a region 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.

[0092] Furthermore, the drive motor 23 is located near the inner wall of the assembly cavity 221. This design saves space in the central area of ​​the assembly cavity 221, ensuring that the transmission assembly 24 has sufficient installation space and facilitating the layout of the transmission assembly 24.

[0093] In this embodiment, the drive motor 23 and multiple double gears are arranged around the outside of the second transmission gear 242, which effectively utilizes the vertical and horizontal space of the assembly cavity 221, minimizes the assembly space occupied by the drive motor 23 and transmission components 24 in the drive housing 22, reduces the gap between components, makes the internal structure of the drive module 2 more compact, effectively reduces the volume of the drive module 2, and is conducive to the miniaturization of the vegetable cutter and the overall compact layout.

[0094] Furthermore, the arrangement of components around a central point reduces unnecessary power loss and improves overall transmission efficiency. This design also makes the power transmission path more direct and efficient. In addition, the centralized arrangement of components facilitates quick disassembly and maintenance, reduces maintenance time and complexity, and improves the practicality of the equipment.

[0095] Preferably, the drive motor 23 in this embodiment can be a three-series motor. Through the combination of the above-mentioned double gear set, the drive motor 23 can achieve the effect of a five-series motor even when using a three-series motor, providing sufficient cutting power for the vegetable cutter, effectively reducing production costs. Moreover, the volume of a three-series motor is smaller than that of a five-series motor, which can make the drive module flat and miniaturized, which is beneficial to the miniaturization of the vegetable cutter.

[0096] Preferably, the transmission cavity 221 in this embodiment includes an independent transmission cavity 222 and an electrical cavity 223. The drive housing 22 is provided with a connection hole 224 that allows the transmission cavity 222 and the electrical cavity 223 to communicate. The transmission component 24 is disposed in the transmission cavity 222, and the drive motor 23 is disposed in the electrical cavity 222. The drive motor 23 is provided with a motor shaft, which passes through the connection hole 224 and is connected to the transmission component 24 (i.e., the motor shaft is connected to the first transmission gear 241). The electrical cavity 222 is provided with a power supply component 25 that can supply power to the drive motor 23. Through the independent transmission cavity and electrical cavity design, the stability and safety of the system can be effectively improved. The independent cavity design makes the inspection and replacement of each component more convenient and reduces maintenance costs.

[0097] Furthermore, the direct connection between the motor shaft and the transmission assembly 24 via the connecting hole 224 optimizes power transmission efficiency and reduces energy loss.

[0098] Preferably, the power supply component 25 includes a battery 251.

[0099] Preferably, the power supply component 25 further 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, to ensure that the battery can effectively transmit electrical energy to the control circuit board, and the control circuit board controls the operating state of the motor through commands to ensure that it works according to a predetermined program.

[0100] The design of the control circuit board 252 enables the system to achieve intelligent control, and users can adjust the working mode of the vegetable cutter through simple operation.

[0101] The control circuit board has built-in overload protection and short circuit protection functions to ensure the safety and reliability of the motor during operation.

[0102] By optimizing the power management between the battery 251 and the control circuit board 252, the battery's efficiency can be improved and the device's operating time can be extended.

[0103] Preferably, the control circuit board 252 is provided with a drive button 253, and the vegetable cutter housing 1 is provided with a pressing button 15 corresponding to the drive button 253. When the drive module 2 is assembled into the vegetable cutter housing 1, the pressing button 15 is aligned with the drive button 253. The user can press the pressing button 15 to press the drive button 253, so that the control circuit board 252 controls the start and stop of the drive motor 23.

[0104] Preferably, the power supply component 25 also includes a charging port 254, through which the user can charge the battery 251, enabling the vegetable cutter to work wirelessly, improving the convenience and flexibility of the vegetable cutter, and allowing the user to use the device in different environments without being restricted by the power cord.

[0105] like Figures 1 to 15 As shown, in this embodiment, there are two or more second double gears 2432. The second double gear 2432 that meshes with the external gear of the third double gear 2433 is in the opposite direction to the other second double gears 2432, so that the third double gear 2433 is located among the multiple second double gears 2432. With this design, the assembly space occupied by the transmission component 24 in the drive housing 22 can be further reduced.

[0106] Specifically, through a clever gear arrangement, the space occupied by 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 rate 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 spaces.

[0107] By optimizing the gears in the assembly direction and closely arranging them, efficient power transmission and reduced energy loss are ensured.
