DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0032] The following is a specific embodiment of the utility model and in combination with the drawings, the technical scheme of the utility model is further described, but the utility model is not limited to these embodiments.

[0033] As Figures 1 to 6 shown, a container with driving mechanism, comprising: container body 100; integrated power cutter mechanism, integrated power cutter mechanism is connected with container body 100, integrated power cutter mechanism includes driving element 200, driving shaft 300 and cutter 400, driving shaft 300 is connected with driving element 200, cutter 400 is located in container body 100, part of driving shaft 300 is located in container body 100 and is connected with cutter 400;When container body 100 is in the installation posture, driving shaft 300 exists the inclination angle relative to the vertical direction of container body 100.

[0034] The container is applied to food processing equipment, for example, broken wall machine, mixer, soybean milk machine, juicer and the like, and the container can actually be regarded as a whole structure of cup body, cutter and motor in the above equipment.

[0035] Container body 100 is actually cup body and is used for accommodating the material to be processed.Integrated power cutter mechanism is actually the mechanism formed by integrating driving element 200, driving shaft 300 and cutter 400.Driving element 200 can provide mechanical energy to rotate cutter 400, which is preferably motor, motor or other form of power source.Driving shaft 300 is used to drive cutter 400 to rotate, that is, driving shaft 300 transmits the torque of driving element 200 to cutter 400.Cutter 400 is located in the container, and cutter 400 is used to process the material to be processed in container body 100.Cutter 400 can have different shapes and blade designs to meet various needs such as juicing, broken wall, mixing or crushing.

[0036] In the existing design, only cutter is installed at the bottom of cup body, and the coupling is needed between cutter and motor, that is, when cup body is assembled on the base, it is necessary to ensure that the coupling can be clamped and combined together, so that the torque of motor can be transmitted to cutter.

[0037] In the present design, the driving element 200, the driving shaft 300 and the cutter 400 are integrated together to form an integrated power cutter mechanism, which is assembled with the container body 100 so that the present container can be used as a whole. In use, the present container can be mounted on the base 700 and the driving element 200 is powered by the base 700. The present design has the advantage that the coupling design is eliminated and the driving element 200 is always connected with the cutter 400 through the driving shaft 300. The mounting and dismounting of the present container mainly controls the connection and disconnection of the driving element 200 and the power supply, that is, when the present container is mounted on the base 700, the driving element 200 is electrically connected with the power supply in the base 700 so that the driving element 200 can work, and when the present container is dismounted from the base 700, the driving element 200 is disconnected with the power supply in the base 700.

[0038] The mounting posture mentioned in the present design is actually the working state of the present container, that is, when the present container is mounted on the base 700, the state of the container body 100 is the mounting posture. In this mounting posture, there is an inclination angle between the driving shaft 300 and the vertical direction of the container body 100, and the inclination angle of the driving shaft 300 relative to the vertical direction of the container body 100 can be 10° or 20° or 45°. The specific inclination angle of the driving shaft 300 can be designed according to actual needs, as long as it is not vertical.

[0039] It should be noted that the above design can form an included angle between the driving shaft 300 and the direction of gravity, so that the cutter 400 rotates around a non-vertical shaft. The advantage of this design is that when the cutter 400 cuts and stirs the material to be processed, it can promote the material to roll and flow up and down, and make the food gather to the area where the cutter 400 is located, greatly increasing the contact frequency of the cutter 400 and the material, improving the cutting and stirring performance, and eliminating the stagnant area of the material. More specifically, the material in the container body 100 has a downward movement trend under the influence of gravity. Since the driving shaft 300 and the direction of gravity form an included angle, the cutter 400 exerts an inclined centrifugal force on the material when rotating, so that the material has an upward rolling movement trend, and then the material moves downward under the action of gravity to contact the rotating cutter 400. Therefore, the cutter 400 does not simply throw the material to the inner wall of the container body 100, but promotes the material to roll and flow, and exerts an inclined cutting force on the material. This design not only improves the cutting and stirring performance, but also eliminates the need to set a blocking rib on the inner wall of the container body 100.

[0040] The inclination angle of the driving shaft 300 relative to the plumb direction can be 45°. At this inclination angle, the driving shaft 300 can have a larger cutting surface on the basis of better pushing the material upward.

[0041] Based on the above embodiments, the inner wall surface of the container body 100 is set as a smooth surface structure without obstruction ribs.

[0042] It should be noted that in the existing design, the rotation axis of the cutter is in the same direction as the plumb bob, that is, the cutter rotates on a horizontal plane, thereby throwing the material toward the inner wall of the cup. Therefore, the existing design will set a baffle rib on the inner wall of the cup. After the material hits the baffle rib on the inner wall of the cup, it is bounced toward the cutter, thereby making contact between the material and the cutter.

[0043] In this design, the inclined drive shaft 300 drives the cutter 400 to rotate on the inclined surface. The material is stirred by the cutter 400 and moves upward. Then it sinks under the action of gravity and comes into contact with the cutter 400. Its cutting and stirring principle is different from the existing design, so there is no need to set the obstruction ribs on the inner wall of the container body 100.

[0044] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, based on the above embodiment, the container body 100 has an installation port 110, and the integrated power cutting tool mechanism also includes a heating plate 500. The heating plate 500 is sealed in the installation port 110 and forms the bottom wall of the container body 100. The heating plate 500 is equipped with a heating element 530.

[0045] The container body 100 is designed with openings at both ends. A specific mounting port 110 is located at the bottom of the container body 100 for accommodating and securing the heating plate 500. The heating plate 500 is a robust and thermally conductive component that tightly seals the mounting port 110, forming the bottom wall of the container body 100 and ensuring no leakage of internal liquid. The heating element 530 is preferably a heating tube, heating wire, PTC ceramic heating element, or other high-efficiency heating components. The heating element 530 enables the heating plate 500 to heat up, thereby heating the material or food inside the container body 100 to meet various cooking needs, such as heating, boiling, and heat preservation.

[0046] Since the heating plate 500 directly serves as the bottom wall of the container body 100, heat can be directly transferred to the food inside the container, improving heating efficiency and reducing energy loss. The wide contact area of ​​the heating plate 500 ensures more uniform heat distribution. In actual use, the food can be heated while being processed (e.g., juicing, blending, pulverizing, cutting, mixing). This design of simultaneous processing and heating significantly enhances the functionality and practicality of the food processor.

[0047] Based on the above embodiment, the heating plate 500 has a shaft hole 510, a bearing 520 is installed in the shaft hole 510, the driving element 200 and the cutter 400 are separated on both sides of the heating plate 500, and the driving element 200 is fixedly connected to the heating plate 500. The driving shaft 300 passes through the shaft hole 510 and is connected to the bearing 520.

[0048] The heating plate 500 has a central shaft hole 510 for mounting a bearing 520. The drive shaft 300 passes through this shaft hole 510, through the heating plate 500, and into the container body 100. A waterproof seal is provided between the drive shaft 300 and the shaft hole 510. The bearing 520 supports the rotation of the drive shaft 300. The drive element 200 (such as a motor) is directly and fixedly connected to one side of the heating plate 500. This can be achieved using screws, clips, or other mechanical connectors to ensure a secure connection between the two.

[0049] like Figures 1 to 6 As shown, based on the above embodiment, it also includes a base housing 600, an integrated power tool mechanism is fixedly installed in the base housing 600, the container body 100 is fixedly connected to the base housing 600, the base housing 600 has an opening 610, a part of the container body 100 is inserted into the base housing 600 through the opening 610, and the opening 610 is sealed to the outer wall of the container body 100.

[0050] The base housing 600 is essentially a shell structure at the bottom of the container, providing support and protection for the container body 100 and the integrated power tool mechanism. The base housing 600 has a dedicated space to accommodate the integrated power tool mechanism, which is securely fixed within it. The container body 100 and the base housing 600 are fixedly connected. This design uses the base housing 600 to fix the integrated power tool mechanism and the container body 100 together as a whole, placing the integrated power tool mechanism within a closed cavity.

[0051] The opening 610 is sealed to the outer wall of the container body 100. This design prevents dust or liquid from entering the base housing 600, thereby protecting the electrical components in the integrated power tool mechanism.

[0052] Based on the above embodiments, the container body 100 includes a bent portion 120, and the mounting port 110 is set as the port of the bent portion 120. The bent portion 120 is located inside the base housing 600.

[0053] The presence of the curved portion 120 changes the spatial structure of the container interior, making it easier for the food material to form an up-and-down tumbling motion when subjected to cutting and stirring by the knife 400. This motion state can increase the chances of the knife 400 contacting the material. A conventional straight cylindrical container can form "dead zones" at the bottom or corners, making it difficult for some food materials to fully participate in processing. The curved portion 120 can guide the food material to converge towards the center, reducing these stagnant areas, and ensuring that all materials can be effectively processed.

[0054] As shown in Figure 1 , Figure 5 , Figure 6 , on the basis of the above-mentioned embodiments, the bottom surface of the base shell 600 is provided as a support surface 620, and when the support surface 620 is placed on a horizontal plane, the posture of the container body 100 is the installation posture.

[0055] The support surface 620 is actually the bottom surface of the container, and the main role of the support surface 620 is to fit with the placement surface 710 (horizontal plane) of the base 700, at which time the container is in a vertical state, i.e., the container body 100 is in the installation posture.

[0056] On the basis of the above-mentioned embodiments, the base shell 600 has one of the plug 621 and the socket 711, and the drive element 200 and the heating element 530 are both electrically connected to one of the plug 621 and the socket 711.

[0057] As shown in Figures 1 to 6 , on the basis of the above-mentioned embodiments, a food processor including a container with a drive mechanism, further includes a base 700, the top surface of the base 700 is provided as a horizontal placement surface 710, the placement surface 710 has the other of the plug 621 and the socket 711, and the container with the drive mechanism is detachably connected with the base 700; when the container with the drive mechanism is installed on the base 700, the support surface 620 of the base shell 600 is placed on the placement surface 710 of the base 700, and the plug 621 and the socket 711 are electrically connected.

[0058] The base 700 is mainly used to power the integrated power knife mechanism, and the base 700 is connected with a power cord, and the container can be installed on the base 700, i.e., the support surface 620 of the base shell 600 is placed on the placement surface 710 of the base 700, and the plug 621 and the socket 711 are electrically connected. This design simplifies the electrical connection process, so that the user only needs to place the container in place to automatically complete the electrical connection. The drive element 200 and the heating element 530 are both electrically connected to one of the plug 621 and the socket 711, which means that as long as the container is correctly installed on the base 700, these key components can immediately obtain power supply and start working. When the container is lifted from the base 700, the plug 621 and the socket 711 are separated, and the drive element 200 and the heating element 530 are both powered off.

[0059] The food processor is designed to integrate the container body 100, the driving element 200, the heating disc 500, the driving shaft 300 and the cutter 400 into an integrated structure, and to design the power supply function in the base 700, so as to realize the design of separating the power supply from the functional elements.

[0060] The container can be easily mounted and dismounted from the base 700 without complex tools or steps. The user only needs to align the container with the placement surface 710 on the base 700 and gently push it in to complete the installation, and also only needs to gently lift it out. In actual use, the container is mounted on the base 700, the plug 621 is inserted into the socket 711, and the driving element 200 and the heating element 530 are powered. After the driving element 200 is started, the cutter 400 is rotated by the driving shaft 300 to cut, stir or crush the food materials in the container, and at the same time, the heating disc 500 starts heating according to the set temperature mode to ensure uniform heating of the food materials. Since the driving shaft 300 has an inclination angle with the direction of gravity, the cutter 400 rotates around a non-vertically axis, which promotes the rolling and flowing of the food materials and improves the processing effect. After use, the user only needs to gently lift the container, and the plug 621 and the socket 711 are naturally separated, and the power connection is disconnected.

[0061] On the basis of the above-mentioned embodiments, the mounting direction of the container with the driving mechanism relative to the base 700 is set to be consistent with the vertical direction of the base 700.

[0062] The container is mounted in the vertical direction, so that the mounting and dismounting method is more simple and intuitive. Since the container and the base 700 both follow the vertical direction, the user only needs to vertically align the container with the placement surface 710 on the base 700 and gently put it down to complete the installation. This method does not need to consider the inclination angle or specific direction, reducing the operation difficulty. When dismounting is needed, the user only needs to gently lift the container, and the plug 621 and the socket 711 are naturally separated, and the power connection is disconnected.

[0063] It should be noted that all directional indications (such as up, down, left, right, front, back, etc.) in the embodiments of the present application are only used to explain the relative positional relationship, movement condition, etc. between the components in a certain specific posture, and if the specific posture changes, the directional indications also change accordingly.

[0064] In addition, in the present application, the description such as "first", "second", "one" and the like is only for the purpose of description, and cannot be understood as indicating or implying the relative importance of the indicated technical features or implicitly indicating the number of the indicated technical features. Therefore, the features limited by "first" and "second" can explicitly or implicitly include at least one of the features.

[0065] In the utility model, unless another definite provision and limitation, the term "connect", "fix" and so on should do the broad sense understanding, for example, "fix" can be fixed connection, also can be detachable connection, or be integrated;Can be mechanical connection, also can be electrical connection;Can be directly connected, also can be indirectly connected through the intermediate medium, can be two elements inside the communication or two elements of the interaction relationship, unless another definite limitation.

[0066] In addition, the technical solutions of various embodiments of the present application can be combined with each other, but must be based on the realization of ordinary skilled personnel in the art, when the combination of technical solutions appears contradictory or cannot be realized, it should be considered that the combination of such technical solutions does not exist, also not within the protection scope required by the present application.
