Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of processing tools, specifically a food processing tool. Background Technology
[0002] In the food processing industry, pressing tools are widely used for edge shaping or pattern imprinting on bread, sandwiches, toast, pastries, and other foods. Currently, common pressing tools typically employ a rigid pressing structure to apply pressure to a localized surface of the food, causing the hard surface of the pressing component (such as a metal blade or plastic pressure plate) to momentarily contact the food surface to achieve pressing. However, this design has a significant drawback: localized pressure concentration can easily lead to food damage. For example, applying pressure to different areas of the food surface using multiple pressing strips, or using a convex surface or sharp edge, results in highly uneven pressure distribution. When pressing down, the pressure concentrates in a single contact area (such as the pressing strip surface or blade edge), causing the food surface to crack due to stress concentration. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a pressing tool that can disperse pressure, buffer impact, and dynamically adapt to the thickness of the food to overcome these technical bottlenecks.

[0033] This application provides a food processing tool whose core function is to achieve pressing operations through the movement of the pressing structure 7 relative to the supporting structure 1. Simultaneously, a spring buffer mechanism is used to prevent excessive force during the pressing process, ensuring operational stability and safety. This tool is suitable for scenarios requiring precise pressing, such as shaping the edges of bread, toast, or sandwiches, and embossing pastries. The food processing tool includes a supporting structure 1, a pressing structure 7, a pressing structure 12, and a buffer structure 14.
[0034] Support structure 1:
[0035] The support structure 1 serves as an integral frame, supporting the pressing structure 7 and providing a guide for its movement. It also provides an installation reference for the buffer structure 14 to ensure the stability of the pressing operation. The support structure 1 includes a housing 2, an inner cavity 3, a through hole 4 located at the center of the housing 2, a plate-shaped flange 5 surrounding the housing 2, and grooves 6 on the side surface of the pressing structure 12 located on the plate-shaped flange 5 for displaying the embossed shape.
[0036] Shell 2:
[0037] Shell 2 serves as the basic framework, providing physical support for internal components and distributing external loads through its rigid structure. For example, during the pressing process, shell 2 must withstand the reaction force to prevent deformation. The shape of shell 2 can be hemispherical, square (to accommodate right-angled edges), cylindrical, etc., depending on the application scenario. For example, ... Figures 1 to 5 As shown, the sandwich pressing tool uses a square housing 2 to match the edge sealing requirements of square sandwiches. For example, as Figures 6 to 9 As shown, the sandwich pressing tool uses a circular housing 2 to match the sealing requirements of circular sandwiches. The housing 2 is typically made of food-grade stainless steel or high-strength plastic to ensure structural strength. The housing 2 is located at the bottom of the tool and serves as the basic frame to support other components.

[0091] Buffer structure 14:
[0092] The buffer structure 14 is the core buffer component of the tool, and its main functions include: absorbing impact force by absorbing downward pressure through elastic deformation during the pressing process, preventing rigid impact from damaging the surface of the object being pressed; providing gradual pressure by using the elastic properties of the buffer structure 14 to ensure a smooth pressing process by allowing the pressing surface to contact the object with gradually varying pressure; protecting components by reducing rigid collisions between the pressing structure 7 and the support structure 1, thus extending the tool's service life; and improving operational comfort by reducing the reaction force when the user applies force through buffering.

[0096] In some embodiments, in addition to helical springs, elastic deformation structures such as sheet springs, silicone pads, or gas springs may also be used as buffer structures 14.
[0097] In some embodiments, the spring can be used in conjunction with a damping material (such as rubber) to achieve a damping function, further enhancing the cushioning effect.
[0098] In some embodiments, the food processing tool may not have the cushioning structure 14.
[0099] The pressing tool of this application embodiment has at least the following technical effects:
[0100] Distribute pressure: The concave pressing plane design ensures that the pressure is evenly distributed on the surface of the food, avoiding food breakage caused by localized stress concentration;
[0101] Shock absorption: The buffer structure 14 absorbs the downward pressure to achieve gradual pressing and reduce the damage to the surface of the food from rigid impacts.
[0102] Dynamic adaptation: such as Figure 5 and Figure 9 As shown, the pressing structure 7 can move along the support structure 1, and combined with the design of the limiting structure 15 and the adjustable spring stiffness, it can adapt to ingredients of different thicknesses and shapes.
[0103] Improved operational stability: The coordinated design of support structure 1 and buffer structure 14 ensures a smooth pressing process and reduces the difficulty of operation for users;
