Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of household appliance technology, specifically to a novel pressing rod structure and a food processor having the same structure. Background Technology

[0002] This section provides only background information related to this application to enable those skilled in the art to understand this application more thoroughly and accurately, and it is not necessarily prior art.

[0003] Vegetables are an essential ingredient in our lives, and chopping vegetables is an indispensable step in the cooking process. Currently, the common methods of chopping vegetables are manual or using a vegetable grater. Manual chopping is not only time-consuming but also laborious, especially when shredding or slicing chunks like potatoes or radishes, which significantly reduces work efficiency.

[0004] As a result, automatic food processors have appeared on the market. Users simply put the ingredients into the feed tube and press the feed bar, and the food is cut into shreds, strips, or cubes by the cutting blades and falls out of the outlet, making it very convenient to operate. However, the existing feed bar structure is usually of a fixed size, which cannot process large pieces and long, thin ingredients at the same time, making it somewhat cumbersome.

[0005] To address this, some manufacturers have designed the pressure bar to consist of a detachable large pressure bar and a small pressure bar to process ingredients of different sizes. The large pressure bar has a locking hole on its channel sidewall, into which the small pressure bar extends and engages with the locking hole via a locking block for secure locking. However, this design still has the following drawbacks: First, because the locking hole is located within the channel of the large pressure bar, its manufacturing is more difficult and requires higher precision, resulting in higher costs. Second, when cutting long and thin ingredients, the ingredients must first be placed into the channel of the large pressure bar before the small pressure bar is pressed in to move the ingredients downwards. During this process, ingredients can easily splash into the locking hole, clogging it and preventing the locking block from engaging, thus causing locking failure and making the process quite troublesome. Utility Model Content

[0006] To overcome the defects described in the prior art, this utility model provides a novel pressure bar structure and a food processor having the same. By setting the locking mechanism between the first and second body parts, the processing difficulty of the parts is reduced, and the cost is lowered. At the same time, since the locking mechanism is not set in the channel, there is no problem of food splashing into the card hole and causing locking failure, thus ensuring the reliability of locking.

[0007] The technical solution adopted by this utility model to solve its problem is:

[0008] A novel pressure bar structure includes a pressure bar and a pressure sleeve, wherein:

[0009] The pressing rod includes a rod body and a first seat body disposed on the top of the rod body; the pressing sleeve includes a cylindrical body and a second seat body disposed on the top of the cylindrical body; a through channel is formed inside the cylindrical body, and the rod body can extend into the channel.

[0010] It also includes a locking mechanism disposed between the first seat portion and the second seat portion. When the rod portion extends into the channel and the first seat portion and the second seat portion are locked by the locking mechanism, the pressure rod and the pressure sleeve form a large pressure rod.

[0011] Furthermore, the locking mechanism includes a button passing through the first seat, a slider that is driven and slidably disposed in the first seat, a first spring disposed in the first seat and abutting against the slider, and a protrusion disposed on the second seat and extending into the first seat, wherein the protrusion has a locking hole.

[0012] Under the elastic force of the first spring, the slider can be driven to slide out and engage with the locking hole to achieve locking; when the button is pressed, the slider can overcome the elastic force of the first spring and slide inward, thereby disengaging the slider from the locking hole to achieve unlocking.

[0013] Furthermore, the bottom of the button is provided with a push plate that passes through the slider. The push plate has a guide slope. When the button is pressed, the push plate can be abutted by the guide slope to drive the slider to overcome the elastic force of the first spring and slide inward.

[0014] Furthermore, the locking mechanism also includes a switch assembly, which includes a latch disposed at the bottom of the button and an elastic buckle disposed within the first base portion;

[0015] When the button is pressed until the latch engages with the elastic buckle, the slider slides inward and disengages from the latch hole.

[0016] Furthermore, the locking mechanism also includes a guide assembly, which includes a guide post disposed at the bottom of the button and a guide hole opened on the first base portion through which the guide post passes;

[0017] When the button is pressed, the guide post can be moved up and down along the axis of the guide hole.

[0018] Furthermore, it also includes a second spring, which is sleeved on the guide post with one end abutting against the button and the other end abutting against the first seat portion;

[0019] When the button is pressed to disengage the latch from the elastic buckle, the button can be reset by the elastic force of the second spring; at the same time, the slider can slide out by the elastic force of the first spring.

[0020] Furthermore, there are two sliders arranged symmetrically from left to right. Each slider has a protruding mounting post. One end of the first spring is sleeved on the mounting post of one slider, and the other end is sleeved on the mounting post of the other slider.

[0021] Furthermore, the first base body is also provided with a groove, and the slider slides through the groove.

[0022] In addition, this utility model also provides a food processing machine, including the above-mentioned novel pressing rod structure.

[0023] Furthermore, it also includes a main unit and a cutting cylinder detachably mounted on the main unit, wherein a feeding tube is formed on the cutting cylinder, and the pressing sleeve can extend into the feeding tube.

[0024] In summary, the novel pressing rod structure and food processor with the same provided by this utility model reduce the processing difficulty of the parts and thus reduce the cost by setting the locking mechanism between the first seat of the pressing rod and the second seat of the pressing sleeve. In addition, since the locking mechanism is not set in the channel of the pressing sleeve, there is no problem of food splashing into the locking hole and causing locking failure, thus ensuring the reliability of locking.

[0035] To better understand and implement this invention, the technical solutions in the embodiments of this invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0036] In the description of this utility model, it should be noted that the terms "upper", "lower", "front", "rear", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inner", and "outer" indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings. They are only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the module or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this utility model.

[0037] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this invention pertains. The terminology used herein is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to be limiting of the invention.

[0038] Example 1

[0039] See Figure 1-6This utility model provides a novel pressure bar structure 1, including a pressure bar 11 and a pressure sleeve 12. The pressure bar 11 includes a bar body 111 and a first seat 112 disposed at the top of the bar body 111. The pressure sleeve 12 includes a cylindrical body 121 and a second seat 122 disposed at the top of the cylindrical body 121. A through channel 1211 is formed inside the cylindrical body 121, and the bar body 111 can extend into the channel 1211. In addition, a locking mechanism is provided between the first seat 112 and the second seat 122. When the bar body 111 extends into the channel 1211 and is in place, the locking mechanism can lock the first seat 112 and the second seat 122 together. At this time, the pressure bar 11 and the pressure sleeve 12 form a large pressure bar.

[0040] Specifically, the locking mechanism includes a button 113 that passes through the first seat 112 and can move up and down, a slider 114 that is driven and cooperates with the button 113 and slides horizontally in the first seat 112, a first spring 115 that is disposed in the first seat 112 and abuts against the slider 114, and a protrusion 1221 that is disposed on the top of the second seat 122 and extends into the first seat 112, the protrusion 1221 having a locking hole 12211.

[0041] Thus, in the initial state, under the elastic force of the first spring 115, the slider 114 can be driven to slide out and engage with the locking hole 12211 to achieve locking; when unlocking is required, the slider 114 can be driven to overcome the elastic force of the first spring 115 and slide inward by pressing the button 113 downward, thereby disengaging the slider 114 from the locking hole 12211 to achieve unlocking.

[0042] Therefore, the pressure bar structure 1 of this utility model reduces the processing difficulty of the parts and thus reduces the cost by setting the locking mechanism between the first seat 112 of the pressure bar 11 and the second seat 122 of the pressure sleeve 12. In addition, since the locking hole 12211 is not set in the channel 1211 of the pressure sleeve 12, there is no problem of food splashing into the locking hole 12211 and causing locking failure, thus ensuring the reliability of locking.

[0043] In this embodiment, the first base 112 consists of a mounting base 1121 integrally formed on the top of the rod 111 and an end cap 1122 covering the mounting base 1121. The mounting base 1121 has clearance holes 11211 on both sides for the protrusion 1221 to extend into; the end cap 1122 has a through hole 11221 for the button 113 to pass through.

[0044] In this embodiment, there are two sliders 114 arranged symmetrically from left to right. One side of the slider 114 has a protruding mounting post 1141. One end of the first spring 115 is sleeved on the mounting post 1141 of one slider 114, and the other end is sleeved on the other mounting post 1141 of the other slider 114. The mounting base 1121 has a groove 11212, and the slider 114 slides through the groove 11212 to achieve limiting and fixing.

[0045] See Figure 4-5 The bottom of the button 113 is also provided with a push plate 1131 that passes through the slider 114. The push plate 1131 has a guide slope 11311 formed on it. Thus, when the button 113 is pressed down, the guide slope 11311 can abut against the push plate 1131 to drive the slider 114 to overcome the elastic force of the first spring 115 and slide inward to disengage from the locking hole 12211.

[0046] Of course, in other embodiments, the guide slope 11311 can be provided on the slider 114, or the guide slope 11311 can be provided on both the push plate 1131 and the slider 114, which can also achieve the same technical effect; in addition, the guide slope 11311 can also be replaced with a guide arc surface, which is not limited here.

[0047] Furthermore, the locking mechanism also includes a switch assembly, which comprises a latch 1132 located at the bottom of the button 113 and a resilient latch 116 located within the first housing 112. When the button 113 is pressed until the latch 1132 engages with the resilient latch 116, the slider 114 slides inward and disengages from the latch hole 12211. To unlock, the button 113 can be pressed down again.

[0048] Therefore, by setting up a switch assembly, the button 113 can be fixed in a limited position, making the operation very simple and convenient.

[0049] It should be noted that the flexible buckle 116 of this application can be purchased on the market, and its working principle is existing technology, so its structure and working principle will not be described in detail here.

[0050] In addition, the locking mechanism also includes a guide assembly, which includes a guide post 1133 disposed at the bottom of the button 113 and a guide hole 11213 opened on the mounting base 1121 for the guide post 1133 to pass through; thus, when the button 113 is pressed, the guide post 1133 can be driven to move up and down along the axial direction of the guide hole 11213, thereby ensuring the stability of the up and down movement of the button 113.

[0051] Of course, in other embodiments, the positions of the guide post 1133 and the guide hole 11213 can be interchanged to achieve the same technical effect, and there are no restrictions here.

[0052] In addition, a second spring 117 is included, which is sleeved on the guide post 1133 with one end abutting against the button 113 and the other end abutting against the mounting base 1121. Thus, when the button 113 is pressed down again to disengage the latch 1132 from the elastic buckle 116, the button 113 can be reset under the elastic force of the second spring 117; at the same time, the slider 114 can slide out under the elastic force of the first spring 115.

[0053] Example 2

[0054] See Figure 7-8 The present invention also provides a food processing machine, including the novel pressing rod structure 1 of the above embodiment, the main unit 3, and the cutting tube 2 detachably assembled on the main unit 3. The cutting tube 2 has a feeding tube 21, and the pressing sleeve 12 can extend into the feeding tube 21.

[0055] Therefore, when large-sized ingredients (such as potatoes) need to be cut, the pressing sleeve 12 can be fitted onto the pressing rod 11 to form a large pressing rod. This large pressing rod can be inserted into the feed tube 21 to press and cut the large-sized ingredients. When slender ingredients (such as cucumbers) need to be cut, the pressing sleeve 12 can be inserted into the feed tube 21 to narrow the feed channel. At this time, the pressing rod 11 forms a small pressing rod. This small pressing rod can be inserted into the feed channel to press and cut the small-sized ingredients, thus satisfying the pressing effect of different ingredients.

[0056] In summary, the novel pressing rod structure 1 and the food processor having it provided by this utility model reduce the processing difficulty of the parts and thus reduce the cost by setting the locking mechanism between the first seat 112 of the pressing rod 11 and the second seat 122 of the pressing sleeve 12. In addition, since the locking mechanism is not set in the channel of the pressing sleeve 12, there is no problem of food splashing into the locking hole and causing locking failure, thus ensuring the reliability of locking.

[0057] It should be noted that when a component is referred to as being "fixed to" or "set on" another component, it can be directly on or indirectly on the other component. When a component is referred to as being "connected to" another component, it can be directly connected to or indirectly connected to the other component.

[0058] It should be understood that the terms "top", "bottom", "inner", "outer", etc., indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings. They are only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the module or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this utility model.

[0059] Furthermore, in the description of this utility model, "multiple" and "several" mean two or more, unless otherwise explicitly specified.
