[0030] To further understand the content, features, and effects of this utility model, the following embodiments are provided, and detailed descriptions are given below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings:

[0031] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 as well as Figure 4 As shown, this utility model provides a food processor that is easy to store, including a food processor cup 1, a main unit 2, and a lid 3. The food processor cup 1 has a cavity 1a, an upper opening 1b, and a lower opening 1c, both of which are connected to the cavity 1a. The main unit 2 includes a housing 21, a drive motor 22, a heating plate 23, and a blade 24. The housing 21 has an extension portion 2a and an exposed portion 2b. The drive motor 22 is disposed inside the housing 21. The heating plate 23 is disposed at the end of the extension portion 2a away from the exposed portion 2b. The drive shaft of the blade 24 passes through the heating plate 23 and is connected to the output end of the drive motor 22. The extension portion 2a is detachably disposed at the lower opening 1c, the diameter of the extension portion 2a being smaller than the diameter of the cavity 1a, and the diameter of the exposed portion 2b being larger than the diameter of the cavity 1a. The lid 3 is detachably disposed on the upper opening 1b of the food processor cup 1.

[0032] In practical applications, the food processor has a working state and a storage state. When the food processor is in the working state, the extension part 2a is connected to the lower opening 1c. When the food processor is in the storage state, the extension part 2a passes through the upper opening 1b and extends into the cavity 1a, and the exposed part 2b abuts against the end of the upper opening 1b.

[0033] Through the above technical solution, the extension part 2a can be inserted into the cavity 1a during transportation or when the food processor is not in use, thereby reducing the space occupied by the food processor, thus reducing the packaging materials required during transportation and lowering the transportation and packaging costs for enterprises; in addition, when the food processor is in the storage state, the exposed part 2b makes it easy to remove the main unit 2 from the food processor cup 1.

[0034] Specifically, the detachable connection between the insertion part 2a and the lower opening 1c is achieved by a screw-on connection, which can be a threaded connection or a slot and snap-on connection.

[0035] In some preferred embodiments, the bottom of the main unit 2 has a groove 2c, and the lid 3 has a handle 31 that matches the shape of the groove 2c. When the food processor is in the storage state, the handle 31 extends into the groove 2c. This technical solution allows the lid 3 to be integrated with the main unit 2 when the food processor is in the storage state, preventing the lid 3 from being misplaced and thus enabling better storage.

[0036] like Figure 2 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, in some preferred embodiments, the aforementioned blending cup 1 includes an inner cup body 11, an outer cup body 12, and a connector 13. The outer cup body 12 is fitted onto the inner cup body 11. The connector 13 connects the inner cup body 11 and the outer cup body 12 respectively. Through the above technical solution, a soundproof cavity is formed between the inner cup body 11 and the outer cup body 12, thereby reducing the noise of the blender during operation and improving the user experience.

[0037] like Figure 3 As shown, in some preferred embodiments, the outer wall of the outer cup body 12 is provided with a mounting portion 121, and the mounting portion 121 is provided with a rotatable folding handle 5. In specific applications, the folding handle 5 has an open state and a closed state. When the folding handle 5 is in the open state, the user can lift the food processor by using the folding handle 5. When the folding handle 5 is in the closed state, the folding handle 5 rotates so that one side abuts against the outer wall of the outer cup body 12, reducing the space occupied and making it easier to store.

[0038] like Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, in some preferred embodiments, one end of the inner cup 11 has a first connecting portion 111, the other end of the inner cup 11 has a second connecting portion 112, and one end of the outer cup 12 has a third connecting portion 122. A connector 13 connects the first connecting portion 111 and the third connecting portion 122 respectively, with the second connecting portion 112 abutting against the other end of the outer cup 12. This technical solution not only facilitates quick connection between the inner cup 11 and the outer cup 12 but also ensures a secure connection between them. Specifically, both the first connecting portion 111 and the second connecting portion 112 are flanged, and the third connecting portion 122 is a connecting block integrally formed with the outer cup 12. The connecting block has a through hole, and one end of the connector 13 is connected to the outer cup 12 via a screw passing through the through hole. The other end of the connector 13 has an extension plate that extends into a groove formed between the first connecting portion 111 and the inner cup 11.

[0039] like Figure 6 As shown, in some preferred embodiments, a limiting ring 14 is fitted onto the other end of the inner cup, and the limiting ring 14 abuts against the inner sidewall of the outer cup body 12 and the second connecting part 112, respectively. This technical solution allows the other end of the inner cup body 11 to be relatively fixed to the outer cup body 12, preventing the other end of the inner cup body 11 from shifting and colliding with the inner sidewall of the outer cup body 12 during the operation of the food processor.

[0040] like Figure 2 and Figure 5 As shown, in some preferred embodiments, a sealing ring 4 is provided at the lower opening 1c. When the food processor is in operation, the sealing ring 4 abuts against the heating plate 23. Specifically, the sealing ring 4 is located between the first connecting part 111 and the third connecting part 122, and abuts against the heating plate 23 when the food processor is in operation. This technical solution ensures that the food processor cup 1 and the main unit 2 can be well connected when the food processor is in operation, avoiding gaps between the heating plate 23 and the food processor cup 1.

[0041] like Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, in some preferred embodiments, the host unit 2 further includes a noise reduction cover 25. The noise reduction cover 25 is located inside the housing 21 and covers the drive motor 22. This technical solution can effectively reduce the noise of the drive motor 22 during operation and improve the user experience.

[0042] like Figure 7 As shown, in some preferred embodiments, the aforementioned easy-to-store food processor also includes a soundproof cover 6; the soundproof cover 6 is detachably mounted on the exposed portion 2b, and when the food processor is in operation, the soundproof cover 6 covers the food processor cup 1, the extension portion 2a, and the cup lid 3. This technical solution further reduces the noise of the food processor during operation, thereby improving the user experience.

[0043] In summary, in one or more embodiments of this utility model, the easy-to-store food processor of this utility model designs the diameter of the insert part of the main unit to be smaller than the diameter of the cavity and the diameter of the exposed part to be larger than the diameter of the cavity, so that the insert part can extend into the cavity, reducing the space occupied by the food processor, thereby reducing the amount of packaging material used, and reducing the transportation and packaging costs for enterprises. In addition, the exposed part also makes it easy to remove the main unit from the food processor cup.

[0044] The above description is merely an embodiment of this utility model and is not intended to limit the scope of this utility model. Various modifications and variations can be made to this utility model by those skilled in the art. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principle of this utility model should be included within the scope of the claims of this utility model.
