Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model specifically relates to an improved structure of a food processing machine. Background Technology
[0002] Existing juicers, such as the one described in Chinese Utility Model Patent CN219813792U (title: A Juicer, authorized on October 13, 2023), include a juicing chamber, a spiral head inside the chamber, a juice outlet, and a juicing container. The spiral head is located inside the juice outlet. A feeding cylinder is also located at the top of the juicing chamber, with raised ribs on its outer ring. The inner wall of the juicing chamber has fastening ribs. The juicing chamber contains a juicing container, which includes a first component and a second component. The first component includes upper and lower rings connected by two or more grid strips, forming one or more slits on its side. The second component includes the upper ring. This utility model solves the problem of cumbersome cleaning by using a detachable juicing container structure. The upper and lower components of the juicing container can be easily separated and rinsed with water, eliminating the need for a brush to clean the previously used filter screen due to its small mesh size.
[0003] However, the filter assembly with the above structure still has the following shortcomings: (1) The juicer tube includes a first component and a second component. The first component and the second component are interlocked to form a filter gap. The first component and the second component are separate parts. The first component and the second component need to be installed with their own independent installation structure. They also need to be installed separately during installation, which is cumbersome and time-consuming. Furthermore, the first component and the second component are also cumbersome and time-consuming to clean and store. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to overcome the shortcomings of the existing technology and provide an improved food processor structure in which the upper module and the lower module are connected to each other, which facilitates the simultaneous installation of both on the juice container. The installation operation is simple and convenient, and both modules can be cleaned and stored at the same time.
[0005] The purpose of this utility model is achieved as follows:
[0006] An improved structure for a food processor includes a juice dispensing tank, a screw, and a filter assembly. The juice dispensing tank has a juice dispensing chamber, a juice outlet, and a residue outlet. The screw and the filter assembly are both located on the juice dispensing chamber, with the screw situated on the inner circumference of the filter assembly. The filter assembly includes an upper module and a lower module. The upper module has several upper insert teeth, with adjacent upper insert teeth forming an upper slot. The lower module has lower insert teeth corresponding to the upper slots, extending into the upper slots and forming a residue-juice filtration gap between the lower insert teeth and the upper slots. The lower module has a connecting part and an anti-rotation part, and the upper module has an anti-detachment part. The connecting part and the anti-detachment part are movably connected. The juice outlet chamber is equipped with a blocking component, and the anti-rotation part is similar to the blocking component. This food processor has an improved structure. The lower module is connected to the upper module through a connecting part, which cooperates with the anti-detachment part of the upper module to achieve a movable connection between the lower module and the upper module. This allows the upper and lower modules to form a relatively connected integral module, facilitating simultaneous installation of both on an external carrier. The installation operation is simple and convenient. At the same time, the relatively connected modules can also be cleaned and stored simultaneously, making it convenient for users to clean and store the filter assembly. Furthermore, the cooperation between the anti-rotation part and the blocking component effectively prevents the filter assembly from being driven to rotate by the high-speed rotating screw, which is beneficial to the stable operation of the filter assembly.
[0007] The objective of this utility model can also be achieved by the following technical measures:
[0008] Specifically, a blocking seat is provided on the bottom wall of the juice outlet chamber, and a first blocking surface is provided on the blocking seat. An anti-rotation block is provided at the bottom of the lower module. The anti-rotation block is close to the first blocking surface. The anti-rotation block constitutes the anti-rotation part, and the blocking seat constitutes the blocking component. The anti-rotation block and the first blocking surface have a large mating area, which can effectively achieve the purpose of this patent, namely: to limit the rotation of the filter assembly and ensure the stable operation of the filter assembly.
[0009] Specifically, the blocking seat is provided with a second blocking surface, and the anti-rotation block is provided with a limiting surface corresponding to the position of the second blocking surface. The second blocking surface and the limiting surface are close to each other. The cooperation between the second blocking surface and the limiting surface enables the blocking seat to effectively restrict the movement of the filter assembly in the horizontal direction, and prevent the filter assembly from undergoing horizontal displacement due to the horizontal circumferential force of the high-speed rotating screw.
[0010] Specifically, the blocking seat is L-shaped, and the inner side of the blocking seat is provided with the first blocking surface and the second blocking surface. The anti-rotation block extends to the inner side of the blocking seat and the anti-rotation block is provided with an anti-rotation surface corresponding to the position of the first blocking surface. The anti-rotation surface is close to the first blocking surface. The surface-to-surface cooperation effect is good. At the same time, the L-shaped blocking seat has a simple structure and is easy to implement.
[0011] Specifically, the upper module includes an upper cylinder, the lower part of which is integrally formed with a plurality of evenly spaced upper insert teeth. The lower module includes a lower ring, the lower ring being integrally formed with a plurality of evenly spaced lower insert teeth. A connecting post is also provided on the lower ring, and an anti-detachment post is provided on the upper cylinder. The connecting post constitutes the connecting part, and the anti-detachment post constitutes the anti-detachment part. The upper and lower modules have simple structures, and the upper and lower insert teeth are easy to manufacture.
[0012] Specifically, the anti-detachment column has an anti-detachment cavity, and the upper side wall of the anti-detachment column has an elongated locking hole that connects to the anti-detachment cavity. The upper part of the connecting column is provided with an elastic locking member. The connecting column is inserted into the anti-detachment cavity, and the outer side of the elastic locking member extends to the elongated locking hole. Through the cooperation of the elastic locking member and the elongated locking hole, the connecting column is relatively connected to the anti-detachment column, preventing the lower module from detaching from the upper module. At the same time, the elongated locking hole provides a guiding movement space for the elastic locking member, which facilitates the guideable movement of the connecting column in the anti-detachment cavity.
[0013] Specifically, the connecting post has a concave cavity, and the upper side wall of the connecting post is provided with a buckle. The upper side wall of the connecting post located on both sides of the buckle has a hollow hole, which communicates with the concave cavity. The buckle constitutes the elastic fastener. The hollow hole separates the buckle from the side wall of the connecting post, giving the buckle a certain elasticity. At the same time, the concave cavity also provides space for the elastic movement of the buckle.
[0014] Specifically, the lower ring body is provided with an inner groove and a positioning protrusion, with the positioning protrusion located on one side of the inner groove. The lower part of the upper insert tooth has a positioning groove corresponding to the position of the positioning protrusion. The lower part of the upper insert tooth is inserted into the inner groove, and the positioning protrusion extends into the positioning groove. The lower part of the upper insert tooth is inserted into the inner groove so that the lower part of the upper insert tooth is stably restricted on the lower ring body. That is, both the upper and lower ends of the upper insert tooth are stably limited, avoiding deformation of the upper insert tooth due to the circumferential force of the screw, and ensuring the filtration accuracy. At the same time, the cooperation between the positioning protrusion and the positioning groove plays a good positioning role in the insertion of the upper insert tooth into the inner groove.
[0015] Specifically, it further includes a main unit and a feeding cylinder, the feeding cylinder being placed on the juice outlet tank, the juice outlet tank being placed on the main unit, and the output shaft of the main unit extending from bottom to top into the juice outlet tank and connected to the screw; its implementation effect is good.
[0016] Specifically, the upper part of the upper module is connected to the lower part of the feed cylinder by means of screw connection, elastic snap-fit, rotational fastening or integral molding; all of the above methods can achieve a stable connection of the upper module to the lower part of the feed cylinder.
[0017] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:
[0018] (1) This food processor has an improved structure. The lower module is connected to the upper module through the connecting part and the anti-detachment part of the upper module, so that the upper module and the lower module form a relatively connected whole module, which makes it easy to install both on the external carrier at the same time. The installation operation is simple and convenient. At the same time, the two relatively connected modules can also be cleaned and stored at the same time, which makes it convenient for users to clean and store the filter assembly. Furthermore, through the cooperation of the anti-rotation part and the blocking part, the filter assembly can be effectively prevented from being driven to rotate by the high-speed rotating screw, which is conducive to the stable operation of the filter assembly.
[0019] (2) The cooperation between the second blocking surface and the limiting surface enables the blocking seat to effectively restrict the movement of the filter assembly in the horizontal direction, and prevent the filter assembly from being horizontally displaced due to the horizontal circumferential force of the high-speed rotating screw.
[0020] (3) By combining the elastic clip and the long strip-shaped clip, the connecting column is connected to the anti-detachment column, preventing the lower module from detaching from the upper module. At the same time, the long strip-shaped clip provides a guiding space for the elastic clip, making it easy to guide the connecting column to move in the anti-detachment cavity.
