The food processing cup assembly and the food processor of the present disclosure will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The features in the following embodiments and implementations can be combined with each other without conflict.

[0038] Referring to Figure 1 As shown in The present disclosure provides a food processor 10, which includes a main machine 11 and a food processing cup assembly 12. The food processor 10 can be a soybean milk machine, a coffee machine, a stock machine, a blender, a mixer, etc. The food processing cup assembly 12 is arranged on the main machine 11, and the food processing cup assembly 12 can be detachably arranged on the main machine 11. In this way, the food processing cup assembly 12 can be detached, which facilitates pouring out the beaten liquid and cleaning the food processing cup assembly 12. The main machine 11 can provide power for the food processor 10 and control the operation of the food processor 10. Among them, Figure 1 The main machine 11 in the embodiment shown in
