Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of food processors, and more particularly to a food processor with a weighing function. Background Technology

[0002] This stand mixer is highly efficient and versatile, simplifying cooking, improving quality, and saving time and labor. It mixes ingredients evenly, resulting in smooth and pliable dough. It is stable and durable, supporting long-term operation, and its adjustable speed allows for precise control. Its easy-to-clean design enhances kitchen convenience and hygiene.

[0003] In order to maintain the taste of food during the use of a stand mixer, it is necessary to measure the weight of each component of the ingredients put into the stand mixer container (for example, the ratio of water to flour when making dough). In order to facilitate the above purpose, there is now a stand mixer with a weighing function. This stand mixer is equipped with a weighing module in the container placement area. When the container is placed on the container placement area, the weighing module senses the change in gravity and displays the detected value on the display module through the controller, thereby achieving the weighing purpose, which is conducive to its widespread application.

[0004] However, the mechanical components of a stand mixer generate significant centrifugal force when driving the blades. When the mixer experiences a gravitational shift, it will wobble. To address this, an anti-slip element is installed at the bottom to increase friction between the mixer and the surface, thus improving stability. The problem is that the weighing module and the anti-slip element are separate components. Even with the anti-slip element, the mixer still experiences mechanical vibration during operation, subjecting the weighing module to prolonged overload. This can negatively impact the accuracy of the weighing module over time, indicating room for improvement. Utility Model Content

[0005] To facilitate weighing the amount of ingredients put into the container, this application provides a food processor with a weighing function.

[0006] The technical solution for a food processor with weighing function provided in this application is as follows:

[0007] A food processor with a weighing function includes a body and a base. The body is used to install mechanical components, and the body is detachably connected to the base. The base is provided with several sets of weighing components, which work together to weigh containers. Each set of weighing components is provided with a suction cup for adhering to the surface on which it is placed.

[0008] By adopting the above technical solution, when the food processor is working normally, the purpose of weighing the container is achieved through the cooperation of several sets of weighing components. Since each set of weighing components is equipped with a suction cup, when the food processor is placed on the surface, the suction force provided by the suction cup will attract the food processor to the surface, which helps to reduce the vibration of the food processor during operation, thereby improving the stability of the food processor when placed on the surface. At the same time, when the food processor is working, because the suction cup and the surface are in a soft connection state, the weight borne by the weighing component is in a state of change, which plays a certain buffering role for the weighing component, which helps to reduce the force on the weighing component when the food processor vibrates, and plays a positive guiding role in extending the service life of the weighing component. It also helps to improve the convenience of weighing the amount of food put into the container.

[0009] Preferably, the weighing assembly includes a support base, a pressure electronic scale, and a drive unit. The support base is disposed on the base, the pressure electronic scale is disposed on the support base, the drive unit is movably connected to the pressure electronic scale, and the suction cup is disposed at the end of the drive unit away from the end that abuts against the pressure electronic scale. The drive unit is used to drive the pressure electronic scale to deform.

[0010] By adopting the above technical solution, since the suction cup is set on the drive unit, when the food processor is placed on the placement surface, the suction cup will bear the force applied by the food processor. At this time, the suction cup will react the force to the drive unit, which will drive the pressure electronic scale to deform, thereby achieving the purpose of weighing the container. The mechanical structure is simple and easy to install and maintain.

[0011] Preferably, a limiting block is provided at one end of the support base that abuts against the pressure electronic scale, and the limiting block is used to limit the degree of deformation of the pressure electronic scale.

[0012] By adopting the above technical solution, the maximum deformation of the pressure electronic scale along the support seat is limited by the limiting block, thereby reducing the probability of damage to the pressure electronic scale caused by the force it bears exceeding the pressure resistance threshold.

[0013] Preferably, the base has a through hole, and the tolerance fit between the drive unit and the through hole is a clearance fit.

[0014] By adopting the above technical solution, when the food processor vibrates during operation, part of the vibration force is transmitted to the drive unit through the base. Since the tolerance fit between the drive unit and the through hole is a clearance fit, the drive unit can shake along the through hole, which helps to balance the vibration generated by the food processor during operation. This helps to reduce the force ultimately transmitted to the suction cup and plays a positive guiding role in improving the tightness of the fit between the suction cup and the placement surface.

[0015] Preferably, a driving block is provided at one end of the driving unit facing the support seat, and a limiting groove is provided on the support seat. When the weight of the container placed on the food processor changes, the driving block slides along the limiting groove and drives the pressure electronic scale to move toward the limiting block.

[0016] By adopting the above technical solution, the path of the drive block along the support seat is limited by the limiting groove, so that the drive part can only shake along the limiting groove. This reduces the probability of damage to the support seat and / or pressure electronic scale caused by excessive centrifugal force generated when the food processor is working, which would result in excessive shaking of the drive part along the support seat.

[0017] Preferably, the end of the drive unit away from the support seat has a mounting groove, and the suction cup is disposed in the mounting groove.

[0018] By adopting the above technical solution, the mounting groove helps to improve the stability of the suction cup when it is installed on the drive unit, making it easier to install the suction cup on the drive unit and reducing the probability of the suction cup falling off the drive unit due to loosening of the fit between the suction cup and the drive unit.

[0019] Preferably, a balance block is provided at the end of the driving unit away from the driving block, and a positioning groove is provided on the side of the support base away from the limiting groove. The depth of the positioning groove is less than the depth of the limiting groove. When the driving unit is in the initial state, the balance block and the driving block respectively abut against the surface of the base facing the support base. When the pressure electronic scale abuts against the limiting block, the balance block abuts against the bottom of the positioning groove.

[0020] By adopting the above technical solution, when the balance block abuts against the bottom of the positioning groove, the drive unit and the through hole are in clearance fit due to the tolerance fit relationship, so that the drive unit slides along the limiting groove through the drive block. At this time, the drive unit is in an inclined state towards the limiting groove until the drive unit abuts against the through hole, which can further reduce the probability of the pressure electronic scale being damaged due to excessive force applied by the drive unit to the pressure electronic scale.

[0021] Preferably, the support base is provided with a buckle, and the pressure electronic scale is fastened to the support base by the buckle.

[0022] By adopting the above technical solution, the pressure electronic scale can be fastened into the support base by a snap-fit, which is simple to operate and helps to reduce the probability of the pressure electronic scale becoming loose or falling off along the support base. The mechanical structure is simple and easy to assemble.

[0023] In summary, this application includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects:

[0024] 1. When the food processor is working normally, it achieves the purpose of weighing the container through the cooperation of several sets of weighing components. When the food processor is working, the suction cup is in a soft connection with the placement surface, so the gravity borne by the weighing component is in a state of change. This has a certain buffering effect on the weighing component, which helps to reduce the force on the weighing component when the food processor vibrates. This has a positive guiding effect on extending the service life of the weighing component and helps to improve the convenience of weighing the amount of food put into the container.

[0025] 2. By limiting the maximum deformation of the pressure scale along the support base through the limit block, the probability of damage to the pressure scale caused by the force it bears exceeding the pressure resistance threshold is reduced.

[0026] 3. By limiting the path of the drive block along the support seat through the limiting groove, the drive unit can only shake along the limiting groove, reducing the probability of damage to the support seat and / or pressure scale caused by excessive centrifugal force generated during the operation of the food processor, which would result in excessive shaking of the drive unit along the support seat.

Detailed Implementation

[0032] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figure 1-4 This application will be described in further detail.

[0033] This application discloses a food processor with a weighing function. (Refer to...) Figure 1 and Figure 2A food processor with weighing function includes a body 1 and a base 2. The body 1 is used to install mechanical parts. The body 1 and the base 2 are detachably connected. The base 2 is provided with several sets of weighing components 3. The several sets of weighing components 3 are used to weigh containers. Each set of weighing components 3 is provided with a suction cup 4, which is used to adhere to the surface on which it is placed.

[0034] Specifically, the mechanical components include a motor, gearbox, and blades, which are used to perform steps such as stirring or mixing the ingredients in the container. These are standard components of a food processor, and their specific composition and working principle will not be elaborated here.

[0035] Furthermore, the number of weighing components 3 can be increased or decreased according to the size of the food processor or the testing requirements. In this embodiment, preferably, four sets of weighing components 3 are provided, and the four sets of weighing components 3 are respectively installed at the corners of the base 2. Correspondingly, the number of suction cups 4 is the same as the number of sets of weighing components 3, so that suction cups 4 are provided on any set of weighing components 3.

[0036] Therefore, when the food processor is working normally, the weighing components 3 work together to weigh the container. Since each set of weighing components 3 is equipped with a suction cup 4, when the food processor is placed on the surface, the suction provided by the suction cup 4 will attract the food processor to the surface, which helps to reduce the vibration of the food processor during operation and thus improves the stability of the food processor when placed on the surface. At the same time, when the food processor is working, the suction cup 4 is in a soft connection with the surface, which causes the weight borne by the weighing component 3 to change, thus providing a certain buffering effect on the weighing component 3. This helps to reduce the force on the weighing component 3 when the food processor vibrates, which has a positive guiding effect on improving the service life of the weighing component 3 and improving the convenience of weighing the amount of food put into the container.

[0037] It should also be noted that the four sets of weighing components 3 have the same components and the same cooperation relationship with the base 2. For ease of explanation, any one set of weighing components 3 will be described in detail below.

[0038] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 4 The weighing component 3 includes a support base 31, a pressure electronic scale 32, and a drive unit 33. The support base 31 is disposed on the base 2, the pressure electronic scale 32 is disposed on the support base 31, the drive unit 33 is movably connected to the pressure electronic scale 32, and a suction cup 4 is disposed on the end of the drive unit 33 away from the end that abuts against the pressure electronic scale 32. The drive unit 33 is used to drive the pressure electronic scale 32 to deform.

[0039] First, it should be noted that the pressure electronic scale 32 is based on physical effects (such as Hooke's law, piezoelectric effect, and magnetoresistive effect) to convert the amount of deformation caused by the drive unit 33 into an electrical signal. After the pressure electronic scale 32 performs amplification, filtering, and zeroing, the weight is detected. This is an existing component, and its specific composition and working principle will not be described in detail here.

[0040] Specifically, a fixing seat 13 is provided on the surface of the base 2 facing the inside of the body 1, and the bearing seat 31 is fixed to the fixing seat 13 by bolts, reducing the probability of the bearing seat 31 becoming loose or falling off along the base 2.

[0041] Furthermore, a fixing cavity 14 is formed in the surface of the support 31 facing the drive part 33 along the thickness direction of the support 31. The pressure electronic scale 32 is installed in the fixing cavity 14 to reduce the probability that the pressure electronic scale 32 will shift after being installed on the support 31, which would lead to a decrease in the accuracy of the detection results of the pressure electronic scale 32.

[0042] Meanwhile, the support base 31 is provided with a buckle 12, and the pressure electronic scale 32 is fastened to the support base 31 by the buckle 12. There are two buckles 12, located on both sides of the fixed cavity 14 along its width direction, and both buckles 12 are integrally formed with the support base 31 to reduce the probability of breakage at the connection point between the buckle 12 and the support base 31. When the pressure electronic scale 32 is installed in the fixed cavity 14, it can be fastened to the fixed cavity 14 by the buckle 12, improving the stability of the pressure electronic scale 32 when installed in the fixed cavity 14.

[0043] Furthermore, a limiting block 5 is provided at the end of the support base 31 that abuts against the pressure electronic scale 32. The limiting block 5 is used to limit the degree of deformation of the pressure electronic scale 32. The limiting block 5 is located within the fixed cavity 14 and is integrally formed with the support base 31, so that the limiting block 5 does not need to be assembled separately.

[0044] Its function is to limit the maximum degree of deformation of the pressure electronic scale 32 along the support base 31 by limiting the limit block 5. That is, when the pressure electronic scale 32 is deformed under pressure, the maximum degree of deformation is the state of contact with the limit block 5. After the pressure electronic scale 32 is in contact with the limit block 5, even if the pressure electronic scale 32 is continuously affected by the force, the pressure electronic scale 32 will not continue to deform, thereby reducing the probability of the pressure electronic scale 32 being damaged due to the force it bears exceeding its pressure resistance threshold.

[0045] On the other hand, the end of the drive unit 33 away from the support base 31 is provided with a mounting groove 9. The suction cup 4 is disposed in the mounting groove 9. The mounting groove 9 is formed by the drive unit 33 being recessed along the thickness direction. The outline of the mounting groove 9 matches the outline of the suction cup 4, so that the suction cup 4 can be stably installed in the mounting groove 9. At the same time, the suction cup 4 can be fixedly connected to the drive unit 33 by bolts or hot glue. The mounting groove 9 helps to improve the stability of the suction cup 4 when it is installed on the drive unit 33, making it easier to install the suction cup 4 on the drive unit 33 and reducing the probability of the suction cup 4 falling off the drive unit 33 due to loosening of the fit between the suction cup 4 and the drive unit 33.

[0046] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 4 The drive unit 33 has a drive block 7 at one end facing the support seat 31. The support seat 31 has a limit groove 8. When the weight of the container placed on the food processor changes, the drive block 7 slides along the limit groove 8 and drives the pressure electronic scale 32 to move toward the limit block 5.

[0047] Specifically, the base 2 has a through hole 6, and the drive unit 33 and the through hole 6 are in a clearance fit. When the food processor vibrates during operation, some of the vibration force is transmitted to the drive unit 33 through the base 2. Because the drive unit 33 and the through hole 6 are in a clearance fit, the drive unit 33 can sway along the through hole 6, which helps to balance the vibration generated by the food processor during operation. This helps to reduce the force ultimately transmitted to the suction cup 4, and plays a positive guiding role in improving the tightness of the fit between the suction cup 4 and the placement surface.

[0048] Furthermore, by limiting the path of the drive block 7 along the support seat 31 through the limiting groove 8, the drive unit 33 can only shake along the limiting groove 8, reducing the probability of damage to the support seat 31 and / or the pressure electronic scale 32 caused by excessive centrifugal force generated when the food processor is working.

[0049] Correspondingly, a balance block 10 is provided at the end of the drive unit 33 away from the drive block 7, and a positioning groove 11 is provided on the side of the support seat 31 away from the limiting groove 8. The depth of the positioning groove 11 is less than the depth of the limiting groove 8. When the drive unit 33 is in the initial state, the balance block 10 and the drive block 7 respectively abut against the surface of the base 2 facing the support seat 31. When the pressure electronic scale 32 abuts against the limiting block 5, the balance block 10 abuts against the bottom of the positioning groove 11.

[0050] Its function is that when the balance block 10 abuts against the bottom of the positioning groove 11, because the tolerance fit between the drive part 33 and the through hole 6 is a clearance fit, and the groove depth of the positioning groove 11 is less than the groove depth of the limiting groove 8, when the balance block 10 abuts against the positioning groove 11, the drive part 33 continues to slide along the limiting groove 8. At this time, the drive part 33 is in an inclined state towards the limiting groove 8 until the drive part 33 abuts against the through hole 6, which can further reduce the probability of the pressure electronic scale 32 being damaged due to excessive force applied by the drive part 33 to the pressure electronic scale 32.

[0051] The implementation principle of a food processor with weighing function in this application embodiment is as follows: Four sets of weighing components 3 are installed on the base 2. The purpose of weighing containers is achieved through the cooperation of the four sets of weighing components 3. Since the drive unit 33 is equipped with suction cups 4, the suction force provided by the suction cups 4 makes the food processor stably adhered to the placement surface, which helps to reduce the vibration of the food processor when it is working, thereby improving the stability of the food processor when it is placed on the placement surface. At the same time, when the food processor is working, since the suction cups 4 are in a soft connection state with the placement surface, the weight borne by the weighing components 3 is in a state of change, which plays a certain buffering role for the weighing components 3. This helps to reduce the force borne by the weighing components 3 when the food processor vibrates, which plays a positive guiding role in improving the service life of the weighing components 3 and improving the convenience of weighing the amount of food put into the container.

[0052] The above are all preferred embodiments of this application, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this application. Therefore, all equivalent changes made in accordance with the structure, shape and principle of this application should be covered within the scope of protection of this application.
