Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of kitchen appliance technology, specifically relating to a food processing machine. Background Technology

[0002] Traditional food processors with water tanks typically have the following structure: the main unit has a mounting cavity to accommodate the grinding cup, which is installed inside the cavity. A protruding section at the front of the main unit forms the operating section, within which the control panel is installed. A support boss for the water tank protrudes from the rear of the main unit, opposite the operating section. This type of food processor has a large front-to-back span and a long overall length. When placed on a workbench, the space in front of the food processor is very small, preventing users from placing cups or bowls containing slurry, causing inconvenience. Furthermore, the mounting cavity also increases the overall height of the main unit, resulting in poor structural compactness and a large overall size.

[0003] Furthermore, existing food processors with water tanks require the installation of water and electrical circuits within the main unit. For safety reasons, the applicant's earlier patent application, CN210169846U, disclosed a miniaturized food processor, including a body (i.e., the main unit) and a crushing component, a water supply component, and an electrical control component housed within the body. The crushing component includes a crushing cup and a crushing motor. The water supply component includes a water pump connected to the crushing cup for water supply. The electrical control component includes a power circuit board and a signal circuit board. The body includes a shell, an insulating bracket, and a base. The shell is located outside the insulating bracket, which is connected to the base. The insulating bracket is used to install and separate the power circuit board, signal circuit board, and water pump. Although this solution separates the circuit board and water pump using the insulating bracket, the main unit is based on a traditional food processor main unit structure. Therefore, it still suffers from poor internal structural compactness, low internal space utilization, and a large main unit size.

[0004] Therefore, the applicant wants to improve the compactness of the host structure, further reduce the size of the host, and at the same time achieve water circuit isolation to improve the safety of use. Utility Model Content

[0005] This utility model provides a food processing machine that improves the shape of the main unit and rationally divides the internal space and structure of the main unit, thereby solving the problem of large main unit size in the prior art and achieving water and electricity isolation to improve the safety of use.

[0006] The technical solution adopted in this utility model is as follows:

[0007] This utility model provides a food processing machine, including a main unit, a water tank, a mixing cup with a built-in stirring device, and a motor driving the stirring device. The main unit is equipped with a power board and a water pump. The water tank supplies water to the mixing cup through the water pump. The power board is connected to the motor. The main unit includes a first support platform supporting the mixing cup, a second support platform supporting the water tank, and an operating table that protrudes upward relative to the second support platform. The operating table and the mixing cup are located on adjacent sides of the water tank, respectively. The main unit also has a vertically arranged isolation bracket inside, which divides the inner cavity of the main unit into a first chamber and a second chamber. The power board and the water pump are located in the first chamber and the second chamber, respectively, and the water pump is located below the water tank.

[0008] This utility model provides a food processing machine. The main unit includes a first support platform supporting the mixing cup, a second support platform supporting the water tank, and an operating table protruding upward relative to the second support platform. The operating table and the mixing cup are located on adjacent sides of the water tank. By arranging the operating table and the mixing cup on adjacent sides of the water tank, the operating panel and the water tank are arranged side-by-side, and the mixing cup and the water tank are arranged side-by-side, reducing the front-to-back span of the main unit. This makes the main unit more square in shape compared to existing technologies, avoiding excessive length and size, thus miniaturizing the main unit and reducing its footprint. When the entire machine is placed on the workbench, there is still some space reserved on the front side of the main unit. Users can place cups and bowls on the front side of the machine for easy pouring of the pulp after processing, improving user convenience and experience. Moreover, using the first support platform to support the mixing cup, compared to setting up an installation cavity to install the mixing cup, avoids increasing the height of the main unit, reducing its size, and allowing the mixing cup to be exposed, thus facilitating installation. Based on the main unit design of this food processing machine, the first and second support platforms are arranged side-by-side, forming a square space inside the main unit. Therefore, by setting up an isolation bracket, which is vertically arranged, the internal space of the main unit is directly divided. The isolation bracket divides the internal cavity of the main unit into a first chamber and a second chamber. The power board and water pump are located in the first and second chambers respectively, achieving a reasonable division of the internal space of the main unit and a compact structure. At the same time, the isolation bracket isolates the water pump and the power board. If there is leakage at the inlet and outlet of the water pump, it will not flow to the power board, thus protecting the power board and isolating water and electricity, improving safety. Since the water pump is located below the water tank, the close proximity of the water pump and the water tank shortens the water path, avoiding excessively long and winding water paths that increase the risk of leakage, and achieving a compact internal structure of the main unit.

[0009] In a preferred embodiment, the isolation bracket is located below the water tank, the first chamber extends from below the stirring cup to below the water tank, and the power board is vertically arranged and located below the water tank.

[0010] Considering the compact size of the water pump, simply installing it below the water tank would waste space within the main unit located below the water tank. Furthermore, in some cases, the motor is installed below the main unit and needs to be positioned below the mixing cup to drive the mixing device. If the motor and power board were both located below the mixing cup, it would be cramped. Therefore, by placing the isolation bracket below the water tank and vertically arranging the power board below the water tank, the power board, isolation bracket, and water pump share the space below the water tank. Simultaneously, the first chamber extends from below the mixing cup to below the water tank, thereby increasing its volume and reserving sufficient space for motor installation, achieving a rational division of the internal space of the main unit. This results in high space utilization and a compact structure while effectively isolating the power board and water pump. Additionally, the vertical arrangement of the power board further reduces the horizontal dimensions of the main unit compared to a horizontal arrangement, contributing to its miniaturization. Furthermore, the vertically arranged isolation bracket below the water tank provides support for the second support platform, increasing its strength and improving the stability of the water tank installation.

[0011] In a preferred embodiment, the motor is mounted in the first chamber and located below the stirring cup.

[0012] By installing the motor in the first chamber, the weight of the mixing cup is reduced, making it easier for users to handle and preventing water from entering the motor during cleaning. Simultaneously, placing the motor inside the main unit lowers the overall center of gravity, improving operational stability. Furthermore, the motor and power board are both located in the first chamber, shortening the wiring harness between them, avoiding tangles, and resulting in a compact structure.

[0013] In a preferred embodiment, the motor is installed in the cup holder of the stirring cup, an upper coupler is fixed to the bottom of the cup holder, and a lower coupler that is plugged into the upper coupler is fixed in the first chamber.

[0014] By installing the motor in the cup holder of the mixing cup, and connecting the motor to the power board through the coupling of the upper and lower couplers, the height of the first support platform of the main unit can be reduced, thus achieving miniaturization of the main unit.

[0015] In a preferred embodiment, the isolation bracket is positioned between the stirring cup and the water tank, such that the first chamber and the second chamber are located below the stirring cup and the water tank, respectively.

[0016] Alternatively, the isolation bracket may be arranged across the bottom of the water tank and the stirring cup, with the first chamber closer to the operating table than the second chamber.

[0017] By placing the isolation bracket between the stirring cup and the water tank, a first support platform and a second support platform are formed on the upper surface of the main unit. At the same time, a first chamber and a second chamber are also formed inside the main unit. The processing, assembly and alignment between the main unit's shell and bottom cover are convenient, and the installation and alignment of the isolation bracket are simple and convenient.

[0018] By arranging the isolation bracket across the bottom of the water tank and the stirring cup, the first chamber is closer to the operating table than the second chamber. Therefore, the power board installed in the first chamber is closer to the operating table to facilitate the connection between the operating components in the operating table and the power board, shorten the connection harness, and facilitate wiring.

[0019] In a preferred embodiment, the isolation bracket has a mounting groove on the side facing away from the water pump, and the power board is fixed in the mounting groove.

[0020] By setting an installation groove on the side of the isolation bracket away from the water pump, the power board is fixed in the installation groove. The groove wall provides all-round waterproof protection for the power board, further preventing water leakage from the water pump in the second chamber from damaging the power board and improving the safety of use.

[0021] In a preferred embodiment, the motor is installed in the first chamber, the water pump is connected to the outlet pipe, the outlet pipe extends through the isolation bracket into the first chamber to communicate with the stirring cup, and the outlet end of the outlet pipe is laterally offset from the motor.

[0022] In a preferred embodiment, the motor is installed in the first chamber, the water pump is connected to the outlet pipe, the outlet pipe extends through the isolation bracket to the top of the motor to communicate with the stirring cup, and a water-proof pad is provided between the motor and the outlet end of the outlet pipe.

[0023] By setting the water outlet end of the water pipe laterally offset from the motor, or by providing a water-proof pad between the motor and the water outlet end of the water pipe, water can be prevented from dripping directly onto the motor when there is a leak at the water outlet end of the water pipe, thus protecting the motor and extending its service life.

[0024] More preferably, a drain outlet is provided on the bottom wall of the main unit, and a water guide is provided in the first chamber. The water guide is located below the water outlet end of the water outlet pipe and guides the water flow to the drain outlet.

[0025] By opening a drain outlet on the bottom wall of the main unit and guiding the water flow to the drain outlet through a water guide component, water leakage from the pump is prevented from remaining inside the main unit, thus preventing the internal environment of the main unit from becoming damp and breeding bacteria, ensuring safe and hygienic use.

[0026] In a preferred embodiment, the main unit includes a housing with an open bottom and a bottom cover closed at the open bottom. The housing and the bottom cover are fixedly connected, and the isolation bracket is clamped and fixed to the housing and the bottom cover.

[0027] The main unit includes a housing with an open bottom and a bottom cover closed at the open bottom. The housing and the bottom cover are fixedly connected to form an installation space, which facilitates the installation of water pumps and power boards. The isolation bracket is fixed by clamping the housing and the bottom cover, so that the bottom cover and the housing are fixed at the same time, and the isolation bracket is fixed in one step, simplifying the main unit assembly process and improving assembly efficiency.

[0028] In a preferred embodiment, the power board is vertically arranged and fixed to the isolation bracket, the motor is a brushless motor, and the power board has an IPM module for driving the motor protruding on the side opposite to the isolation bracket.

[0029] By adopting a brushless motor, which is smaller in height and size than a brushed motor, the overall size of the machine is further reduced. The power board has an IPM module for driving the motor protruding on the side away from the isolation bracket. The power board is fixed to the isolation bracket, and the IPM module protrudes on the side of the power board away from the isolation bracket, resulting in a compact structure.

[0043] like Figure 1 , 2 As shown in Figure 3, this utility model provides a food processing machine, including a main unit 10, a water tank 20, a mixing cup 30 with a built-in stirring device, and a motor 40 for driving the stirring device. The stirring device is a stirring blade, or the stirring device includes a moving grinding head driven by the motor 40 and a stationary grinding head fixed in the mixing cup and cooperating with the moving grinding head. The main unit 10 is equipped with a power board 50 and a water pump 60. The water tank 20 supplies water to the mixing cup 30 through the water pump 60. The power board 50 is connected to the motor 40. The main unit 10 includes a first support platform 11 supporting the mixing cup 30, a second support platform 12 supporting the water tank 20, and an operating table 13 that protrudes upward relative to the second support platform 12. The operating table 13 and the mixing cup 30 are located on adjacent sides of the water tank 20, respectively. The main unit 10 is also equipped with a vertically arranged isolation bracket 70. The isolation bracket 70 divides the inner cavity of the main unit 10 into a first chamber 101 and a second chamber 102. The power board 50 and the water pump 60 are located in the first chamber 101 and the second chamber 102, respectively, and the water pump 60 is located below the water tank 20.

[0044] This utility model provides a food processing machine. The main unit 10 includes a first support platform 11 supporting a mixing cup 30, a second support platform 12 supporting a water tank 20, and an operating table 13 protruding upward relative to the second support platform 12. The operating table 13 and the mixing cup 30 are respectively located on adjacent sides of the water tank 20. By arranging the operating table 13 and the mixing cup 30 on adjacent sides of the water tank 20, the operating panel and the water tank 20 are arranged side by side, and the mixing cup 30 and the water tank 20 are arranged side by side, reducing the front-to-back span of the main unit 10 and making the shape of the main unit 10 more compact. The design is more square than existing technologies, avoiding excessive length and bulkiness, thus reducing the space occupied by the main unit 10. When the entire machine is placed on a workbench, there is still some space reserved on the front side of the main unit 10, which is convenient for users and improves the user experience. Moreover, by using the first support platform 11 to support the mixing cup 30, compared to setting up an installation cavity to install the mixing cup 30, the height of the main unit 10 can be avoided, the volume of the main unit 10 itself can be reduced, and the mixing cup 30 can be exposed on the main unit 10, thus achieving convenient installation. Based on the form of the main unit 10 of this food processing machine, the first support platform 11 and the second support platform 12 are arranged side by side, correspondingly forming a square space inside the main unit 10. Therefore, by setting an isolation bracket 70, which is arranged vertically, the internal space of the main unit 10 is directly divided. The isolation bracket 70 divides the inner cavity of the main unit 10 into a first chamber 101 and a second chamber 102. The power board 50 and the water pump 60 are located in the first chamber 101 and the second chamber 102, respectively, realizing a reasonable division of the internal space of the main unit 10. At the same time, it also achieves the isolation of the water pump 60 and the power board 50. If there is leakage at the inlet and outlet of the water pump 60, it will not flow to the power board 50, thus protecting the power board 50 and improving the safety of use. Since the water pump 60 is located below the water tank 20, the position of the water pump 60 and the water tank 20 is close, shortening the water circuit layout and avoiding the risk of leakage due to excessively long and tortuous water circuits, thus achieving a compact internal structure of the main unit 10.

[0045] This utility model does not limit the specific arrangement position of the isolation bracket. In a preferred embodiment, such as... Figure 3 , 4 As shown, the isolation bracket 70 is located below the water tank 20, the first chamber 101 extends from below the stirring cup 30 to below the water tank 20, and the power board 50 is arranged vertically and located below the water tank 20.

[0046] Considering the small size of the water pump 60, simply installing the water pump 60 below the water tank 20 would waste space inside the main unit 10 located below the water tank 20. Additionally, in some cases, the motor 40 is installed below the main unit 10 and needs to be located below the mixing cup 30 to drive the mixing device. If the motor 40 and power board 50 are both located below the mixing cup 30, it would be too crowded. Therefore, by placing the isolation bracket 70 below the water tank 20 and vertically arranging the power board 50 below the water tank 20, the space between the power board 50 and the isolation bracket 70 is optimized. The bracket 70 and the water pump 60 share the space below the water tank 20. Simultaneously, the first chamber 101 extends from below the stirring cup 30 to below the water tank 20, thereby increasing the volume of the first chamber 101 and reserving sufficient space for the installation of the motor 40, achieving a reasonable division of the internal space of the main unit 10. This results in high space utilization and, while maintaining a compact structure, good isolation between the power board 50 and the water pump 60. Furthermore, the vertical arrangement of the power board 50 further reduces the lateral dimensions of the main unit 10 compared to a horizontal arrangement, achieving miniaturization of the main unit 10. Additionally, the isolation bracket 70, located below the water tank 20 and vertically arranged, provides support for the second support platform 12 supporting the water tank 20, improving the support strength of the second support platform 12 and enhancing the stability of the water tank 20 installation.

[0047] In another preferred embodiment, the isolation bracket 70 is located between the stirring cup 30 and the water tank 20, such that the first chamber 101 and the second chamber 102 are located below the stirring cup 30 and the water tank 20, respectively.

[0048] Alternatively, in another preferred embodiment, the isolation bracket 70 is arranged across the bottom of the water tank 20 and the stirring cup 30, with the first chamber 101 closer to the operating table 13 than the second chamber 102.

[0049] By placing the isolation bracket 70 between the stirring cup 30 and the water tank 20, a first support platform 11 and a second support platform 12 are formed on the upper surface of the main unit 10. At the same time, a first chamber 101 and a second chamber 102 are also formed in the internal space of the main unit 10. The processing, assembly and alignment between the shell 103 and the bottom cover 104 of the main unit 10 are convenient, and the installation and alignment of the isolation bracket 70 are simple and convenient.

[0050] By arranging the isolation bracket 70 across the bottom of the water tank 20 and the mixing cup 30, the first chamber 101 is closer to the operating table 13 than the second chamber 102. Therefore, the power board 50 installed in the first chamber 101 is closer to the operating table 13 to facilitate the connection between the operating panel in the operating table 13 and the power board 50, shorten the connection harness, and facilitate wiring.

[0051] It should be noted that the control panel can be arranged vertically on the front of the control panel, or horizontally on the top of the control panel.

[0052] In a preferred embodiment, such as Figure 3 As shown, the motor 40 is installed in the first chamber 101 and located below the stirring cup 30. Since the motor 40 and the stirring cup are separate, the stirring device is connected to a rotating shaft that extends from the bottom of the stirring cup and is fitted with an upper connector. The rotating shaft of the motor 40 extends out of the main unit and connects to the lower connector. The upper connector and the lower connector are connected in a transmission connection to enable the motor to drive the stirring device to rotate.

[0053] In fact, the motor can be located inside the first chamber 101, and the upper end of the motor can be exposed outside the first chamber 101 to form a first support platform, so as to further reduce the height of the host.

[0054] By installing the motor 40 in the first chamber 101, the weight of the mixing cup 30 is reduced, making it easier for users to handle. This also effectively prevents water from entering the motor 40 during cleaning. Furthermore, the motor 40's location within the main unit 10 lowers the overall center of gravity, improving operational stability. Additionally, the motor 40's location within the first chamber 101, along with the power board 50, shortens the wiring harness between them, avoiding tangles and resulting in a compact structure.

[0055] In a preferred embodiment, such as Figure 3 As shown, the motor 40 is installed in the first chamber 101, the water pump 60 is connected to the water outlet pipe 61, the water outlet pipe 61 extends through the isolation bracket 70 to the top of the motor 40 to communicate with the stirring cup 30, and a water-proof pad 80 is provided between the motor 40 and the water outlet end 611 of the water outlet pipe 61.

[0056] By setting the water outlet end of the water pipe to be horizontally offset from the motor 40, or by providing a water-proof pad 80 between the motor 40 and the water outlet end of the water pipe, water can be prevented from dripping directly onto the motor 40 when there is a leak at the water outlet end of the water pipe, thus protecting the motor 40 and extending its service life.

[0057] Of course, in practice, the water outlet 611 of the water outlet pipe can be set to be horizontally offset from the motor 40 to prevent water from entering the motor.

[0058] More preferably, a drain outlet is provided on the bottom wall of the main unit 10, and a water guide is provided in the first chamber 101. The water guide is located below the outlet end of the water outlet pipe and guides the water flow to the drain outlet. The water guide can be a water channel, or the aforementioned water-proof pad can be inclined to form a water guide.

[0059] By opening a drain outlet on the bottom wall of the main unit 10 and guiding the water flow to the drain outlet through a water guide, water leakage from the water pump 60 is prevented from remaining inside the main unit 10, thus preventing the internal environment of the main unit 10 from becoming damp and breeding bacteria, ensuring safe and hygienic use.

[0060] In addition, the drain outlet can also be used as a heat dissipation outlet for the motor 40.

[0061] This invention is not limited to installing the motor in the first chamber. In other embodiments, the motor 40 can also be installed in the cup holder of the stirring cup 30. The motor's shaft extends into the stirring cup and is fixedly or detachably connected to the stirring device to drive the stirring device to rotate. An upper coupler is fixed to the bottom of the cup holder, and a lower coupler that plugs into the upper coupler is fixed in the first chamber 101.

[0062] By installing the motor 40 in the cup holder of the stirring cup 30, and connecting the motor 40 to the power board 50 through the coupling of the upper coupler and the lower coupler, the height of the first support platform 11 of the host 10 can be reduced, thereby miniaturizing the host 10.

[0063] It should also be noted that the present invention does not limit the specific structure of the isolation bracket 70. For example, in a preferred embodiment, the isolation bracket 70 is a vertically arranged isolation plate 71; the isolation bracket structure is simplified, which facilitates processing, reduces costs, and saves space, thereby achieving a compact internal space of the host.

[0064] In a preferred embodiment, such as Figure 5 As shown, the isolation bracket 70 has a mounting groove on the side facing away from the water pump 60, and the power board 50 is fixed in the mounting groove. More specifically, the isolation bracket 70 includes a vertically arranged isolation plate 71 and a surrounding plate 72 protruding from the edge of the isolation plate 71, the surrounding plate 72 and the isolation plate 71 enclosing each other to form the mounting groove. The portion of the surrounding plate 72 above the power board 50 shields the power board 50.

[0065] By setting an installation groove on the side of the isolation bracket 70 away from the water pump 60, the power board 50 is fixed in the installation groove. The groove wall of the installation groove provides all-round waterproof protection for the power board 50, further preventing water leakage from the water pump 60 in the second chamber 102 from damaging the power board 50 and improving the safety of use.

[0066] Therefore, the water outlet pipe connected to the water pump extends through the isolation bracket 70 into the first chamber 101. If the water outlet pipe leaks, the power board 50 can be shielded by the part of the enclosure 72 located above the power board 50 to prevent the power board from being damaged by water.

[0067] In a preferred embodiment, such as Figure 5 , 6 As shown, the main unit 10 includes a housing 103 with an open bottom and a bottom cover 104 closed at the open.
