Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of food preparation technology, and in particular discloses a garlic peeler for a food processor. Background Technology

[0002] In modern kitchens, food processors are a common appliance, widely used for cutting, mixing, and grinding various ingredients. Garlic is a frequently used seasoning in cooking, but peeling it is usually tedious and time-consuming. Traditional methods of peeling garlic require manual operation, which is not only inefficient but also easily leads to waste of garlic cloves and makes it difficult to completely remove the skin, affecting the cooking results.

[0003] To address this problem, various mechanized garlic peelers have emerged on the market. However, many existing garlic peelers have some significant drawbacks. First, their structures are often too regular, causing the garlic cloves to move too predictably within the food processor, resulting in only peeling a portion of the garlic skin and failing to achieve complete peeling. Second, existing garlic peelers are not ideal in their peeling effect, exhibiting inefficiency or incomplete peeling. Furthermore, some garlic peelers may damage the garlic cloves, affecting their quality and taste.

[0004] Existing garlic peelers also have other problems, such as complex operation, difficult cleaning, and limited applicability. Some garlic peelers can only handle garlic cloves of a specific size and cannot adapt to different varieties and sizes. In addition, some garlic peelers may not be made of durable materials, and are prone to damage or affecting the peeling effect after long-term use.

[0005] Given the importance and wide application of garlic in cooking, developing an efficient, comprehensive garlic peeler that does not damage the cloves is of great significance. An ideal garlic peeler should be able to quickly remove the skin from garlic cloves, be suitable for all sizes, and maintain the integrity of the cloves. Furthermore, it should be easy to operate and clean, and integrate seamlessly with existing food processors to improve kitchen efficiency.

[0006] To address the aforementioned issues, existing technologies urgently need improvement. Utility Model Content

[0007] In order to overcome the shortcomings and deficiencies of the existing technology, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a garlic peeler for a food processor, which solves the technical problems of unsatisfactory garlic peeling effect and low garlic peeling efficiency in the existing technology.

[0008] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides a garlic peeler for a food processor, comprising a drive shaft and a rotating sleeve connected to the drive shaft. The drive shaft is used to connect to the motor of an external food processor, and the rotating sleeve is used to be placed inside the container of the food processor.

The outer surface of the rotating sleeve is provided with a garlic peeling structure, and the extension direction of the garlic peeling structure is intersected with the direction of the rotation axis of the rotating sleeve.

[0009] The drive shaft is used to rotate the rotating sleeve inside the food processor's container. Under the action of the first guide part, the second guide part, and the garlic peeling structure, the garlic with its skin on makes irregular frictional movements between the container and the rotating sleeve, so that its skin is peeled off.

[0010] Furthermore, a third guide portion is provided between the first guide portion and the second guide portion. The first guide portion and the second guide portion are arc-shaped convex surfaces, and the third guide portion is an arc-shaped concave surface.

[0015] Furthermore, the friction posts are disposed on the outer surfaces of the first guide portion, the second guide portion, and the third guide portion. The distribution density of the friction posts varies along the axial direction of the rotating sleeve, wherein the density of the friction posts is higher in the thicker portion of the rotating sleeve than in the thinner portion. The distance between the free end face of the friction post in the first guide portion and the central axis of the rotating sleeve is greater than the distance between the free end face of the friction post in the third guide portion and the central axis of the rotating sleeve. The distance between the free end face of the friction post in the second guide portion and the central axis of the rotating sleeve follows a regular distribution: gradually increasing from the top to the bottom of the rotating sleeve.

[0016] Furthermore, the friction column has a circular cross-section, and the central axis of the friction column is perpendicular to the rotation axis of the rotating sleeve.

[0017] Furthermore, the rotating sleeve, the friction pins thereon, and the first plate are all made of silicone or food-grade plastic (such as polypropylene or carbonate).

[0018] Furthermore, the rotating sleeve is provided with a fourth guide portion connected to the third guide portion. The fourth guide portion extends from the outer surface of the third guide portion to a point near the rotation axis of the rotating sleeve, and the connection between the fourth guide portion and the third guide portion has an arc-shaped transition surface.

[0019] Furthermore, a first plane is formed on the part of the fourth guide section that is away from the third guide section, and the first plane is parallel to the bottom surface of the food processor container.

[0020] Furthermore, the drive shaft includes a first rotating shaft for connecting to the output end of the motor of the food processor and a transmission component connected between the first rotating shaft and the rotating sleeve, wherein the first rotating shaft and the transmission component are detachably connected, and the transmission component and the rotating sleeve are detachably connected.

[0021] Furthermore, the rotating sleeve has a first through hole, and the transmission component includes a first mounting component for insertion into the first through hole and transmission cooperation with the rotating sleeve. The first mounting component is provided with two first stop plates, and the inner wall of the rotating sleeve is provided with a first limiting strip for insertion between the two first stop plates. The extending directions of the first limiting strip and the first stop plates are parallel to the rotation axis of the rotating sleeve. The first mounting component is also provided with a second stop plate, the extending direction of the second stop plate is perpendicular to the extending direction of the first stop plate, and the second stop plate is used to stop and abut against the outer wall of the rotating sleeve.

[0022] Furthermore, the transmission component also includes a second mounting component that is installed in conjunction with the first mounting component. The second mounting component is provided with a first base plate, which is used to support the bottom of the rotating sleeve. The second mounting component is provided with a second limiting strip, and the first mounting component is also provided with a first slot for accommodating the second limiting strip. The extension direction of the second limiting strip is parallel to the extension direction of the first limiting strip.

[0023] Furthermore, the transmission component also includes a third mounting component that is installed in conjunction with the second mounting component. The second mounting component has a second through hole, and the third mounting component has a first protrusion for insertion into the second through hole. The first protrusion has two third stop plates, and the second through hole of the second mounting component has a third limiting strip for insertion between the two third stop plates. The extending directions of the third stop plates and the third limiting strip are parallel to the rotation axis of the rotating sleeve.

[0024] Furthermore, the third mounting component is provided with at least two elastic arms, the extension direction of which is parallel to the extension direction of the third stop plate. The elastic arms are provided with elastic protrusions, which have an inclined first guide surface and an arc-shaped second guide surface. The extension direction of the elastic protrusions is perpendicular to the extension direction of the elastic arms.

[0026] Furthermore, the second base plate, the first protrusion, and the elastic arm are integrally constructed.

[0027] The garlic peeler for the food processor provided by this utility model rotates within the food processor's container via a drive shaft and a rotating sleeve. The rotating sleeve design includes a first guide section, a second guide section, and a third guide section. The arc-shaped surfaces of these guide sections intersect with the rotation axis of the drive shaft, providing effective guiding force. During operation, the garlic cloves with their skins on undergo irregular frictional movement between the container and the rotating sleeve under the action of the rotating sleeve. The skins are separated from the cloves through mutual impact and friction between the cloves and the container, between the cloves and the guide sections, between the cloves and the friction posts, and between the cloves themselves. The friction posts are distributed along the outer surface of the rotating sleeve, and their distribution density and the design of their free ends can be optimized according to the axial changes of the rotating sleeve, further improving the garlic peeling effect. Simultaneously, the material of the rotating sleeve and the structure and design of the garlic peeling mechanism ensure that the garlic cloves remain intact while the skin is peeled off.

[0028] The beneficial effects of this invention are as follows: Through the ingenious design of multiple friction columns and guide parts in the garlic peeling structure, the garlic skin can be efficiently separated from the garlic cloves under the guidance of the rotating sleeve, greatly improving garlic peeling efficiency. This solution, by optimizing the design of the rotating sleeve and friction columns, avoids complex structures, reduces the difficulty of cleaning, and increases the ease of use of the equipment.

[0029] The optimized distribution density of the friction columns, the design of the free end, and the structural optimization of the friction columns result in a more uniform and thorough peeling effect, ensuring efficient peeling. Through these innovative designs, this invention provides a highly efficient, reliable, and easy-to-clean garlic peeler that meets the needs of modern kitchens for efficient and convenient garlic peeling.

Detailed Implementation

[0038] To further illustrate the technical means and effects adopted by this utility model in order to achieve the intended utility model purpose, the following detailed description of the specific implementation methods, structure, features and effects of this utility model is provided in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and preferred embodiments.

[0039] Please see Figures 1 to 6As shown, this utility model discloses a garlic peeler for a food processor, comprising a drive shaft 1 and a rotating sleeve 2 connected to the drive shaft 1. The drive shaft 1 is used to connect to the motor of an external food processor. The rotating sleeve 2 is used to be placed inside the container of the food processor. The rotating sleeve 2 has a first guide part 21 and a second guide part 22 connected to the first guide part 21. The first guide part 21 and the second guide part 22 have arc-shaped surfaces. A garlic peeling structure 3 is provided on the outer surface of the rotating sleeve 2. The extension direction of the garlic peeling structure 3 is intersected with the direction of the rotation axis of the rotating sleeve 2. The drive shaft 1 is used to drive the rotating sleeve 2 to rotate inside the container of the food processor. Under the action of the first guide part 21, the second guide part 22 and the garlic peeling structure 3, the garlic with its skin on performs irregular frictional movement between the container and the rotating sleeve 2, so that its skin is peeled off.

[0040] Both the rotating sleeve 2 and the garlic-peeling structure 3 are made of flexible materials. The softness of these materials helps prevent damage to the garlic. Preferably, both the rotating sleeve 2 and the garlic-peeling structure 3 are made of silicone. In this embodiment, the rotating sleeve 2 and the garlic-peeling structure 3 are an integral structure, meaning they are injection molded in one piece using an injection mold.

[0041] In existing technologies, garlic peelers have a relatively regular structure, which causes the garlic cloves to move too regularly within the food processor's container, failing to achieve the desired peeling effect. The technical solution of this application, by setting a first guide part 21 and a second guide part 22 with curved surfaces, causes the garlic cloves with skin to generate irregular frictional movement during rotation.

[0042] Specifically, the rotating sleeve 2 rotates inside the food processor container under the drive of the drive shaft 1. The garlic with skin is subjected to irregular frictional movement between the container and the rotating sleeve 2 under the action of the first guide part 21, the second guide part 22 and the garlic peeling structure 3, thereby peeling off the garlic skin.

[0043] The drive shaft 1 is connected to the motor of the food processor, and the rotating sleeve 2 is placed inside the food processor's container. The first guide portion 21 and the second guide portion 22 on the rotating sleeve 2 have arc-shaped surfaces, and a garlic-peeling structure 3 is provided on the outer surface of the rotating sleeve 2. The extending direction of the garlic-peeling structure 3 intersects the rotation axis of the rotating sleeve 2. The drive shaft 1 drives the rotating sleeve 2 to rotate inside the food processor's container, causing the garlic with skin to undergo irregular frictional movement between the container and the rotating sleeve 2 under the action of the first guide portion 21, the second guide portion 22, and the garlic-peeling structure 3, thereby peeling off the garlic skin.

[0044] Specifically, under the rotation of the first guide part 21, the second guide part 22 and the garlic peeling structure 3 arranged radially, the garlic cloves are thrown upward from the bottom of the container. When the rotation stops, the garlic cloves fall freely and rub against the inner wall of the container and the outer wall of the garlic peeling structure 3, causing the garlic skin to be detached from the garlic clove body.

[0045] By designing the rotating sleeve 2 and setting the garlic peeling structure 3, the garlic with skin generates irregular frictional motion during rotation, thereby effectively peeling off the garlic skin and solving the problems of incomplete peeling and low garlic peeling efficiency.

[0046] This technical solution utilizes irregular frictional motion to more effectively peel garlic skin. Compared to existing technologies, the solution presented in this application significantly improves both peeling effect and efficiency. Specifically, the design of the rotating sleeve 2 ensures that the garlic cloves are not confined to a single area during the friction process, thus achieving comprehensive peeling. The crisscrossing arrangement of the peeling structure 3 further increases the complexity of the friction, making the peeling process even more efficient.

[0047] By combining the above-mentioned technical features, this application achieves efficient peeling of garlic skin, solving the problems of incomplete peeling and low efficiency in the prior art. The design of the rotating sleeve 2 and the garlic peeling structure 3 causes irregular friction between the garlic cloves during the peeling process, thereby improving the peeling effect and efficiency.

[0048] Specifically, a third guide portion 23 is provided between the first guide portion 21 and the second guide portion 22. The first guide portion 21 and the second guide portion 22 are arc-shaped convex surfaces, and the third guide portion 23 is an arc-shaped concave surface. Specifically, in this embodiment, a fifth guide portion 211 is connected to the upper end of the first guide portion 21, and the fifth guide portion 211 is a concave surface.

[0049] These technical features work together to better guide the garlic cloves to move irregularly within the food processor's container during use, thereby improving peeling efficiency. By adding a third guide section 23 between the first guide section 21 and the second guide section 22, and designing it as an arc-shaped concave surface, the garlic cloves can be guided to move irregularly within the food processor's container more effectively, avoiding the problem of incomplete peeling of certain parts of the garlic cloves, thus improving peeling efficiency and peeling effect.

[0050] The third guide portion 23 can be implemented in various ways. For example, it can be made of the same material as the first guide portion 21 and the second guide portion 22, and fixed to the rotating sleeve 2 by bonding or integral molding. As a preferred embodiment, the concave arc surface of the third guide portion 23 can be designed with different curvatures to accommodate garlic cloves of different sizes and shapes, thereby further improving the peeling effect. In addition, the concave arc surface of the third guide portion 23 can also be surface-treated, such as by adding friction texture, to further enhance its guiding effect on the garlic cloves.

[0051] This solution adds a third guide section 23, designed as an arc-shaped concave surface, allowing the garlic cloves to move irregularly within the food processor's container, thus preventing incomplete peeling of certain parts of the garlic cloves. Compared to existing technologies, this application significantly improves garlic peeling efficiency and peeling effect, solving the problem of poor peeling performance in existing garlic peelers.

[0052] Specifically, the distance by which the first guide portion 21 extends radially from the drive shaft 1 is less than the distance by which the second guide portion 22 extends radially from the drive shaft 1, and the first guide portion 21 is located above the second guide portion 22.

[0053] With this design, the first guide section 21 and the second guide section 22 have different radial extension distances, with the first guide section 21 located above the second guide section 22. This design aims to optimize the working effect of the garlic peeler. By setting different radial extension distances, the movement of garlic cloves within the garlic peeler can be made more irregular, thereby improving the efficiency and effectiveness of peeling garlic.

[0054] Specifically, the first guide part 21 has a shorter radial extension distance, while the second guide part 22 has a longer radial extension distance. This structural design causes the garlic cloves to be subjected to friction in different directions and with different forces within the garlic peeler, increasing the complexity and irregularity of the garlic clove movement and facilitating effective peeling. As a preferred embodiment, the first guide part 21 and the second guide part 22 can be made of different materials or have different surface treatments to further enhance the garlic peeling effect.

[0055] Therefore, by differentiating the radial extension distances of the first guide part 21 and the second guide part 22, this application makes the movement of garlic cloves within the garlic peeler more irregular, thereby improving the efficiency and effectiveness of garlic peeling and solving the problems of unsatisfactory garlic peeling effect and low efficiency in the prior art.

[0056] Specifically, the garlic peeling structure 3 includes at least two first plates 31. The first plates 31 are located near the bottom of the rotating sleeve 2. The cross-section of the first plates 31 is elliptical or racetrack-shaped. The two first plates 31 are symmetrically arranged along the rotation axis of the rotating sleeve 2.

[0057] The first plate 31 increases the contact area with the garlic cloves. Its elliptical or racetrack-shaped cross-section design generates multi-angle friction during rotation, improving peeling efficiency and thoroughness. The two symmetrically arranged first plates 31 ensure uniform friction on the garlic cloves during rotation, preventing uneven peeling caused by friction in one direction. This design allows the garlic peeler to more effectively remove garlic skin, improving peeling efficiency and thoroughness, and solving the problem of incomplete peeling in existing technologies.

[0058] The first plate 31 can be made of various materials, such as stainless steel or plastic, to ensure its durability and stability during use. The size and shape of the first plate 31 can be adjusted according to specific needs to accommodate garlic cloves of different sizes. As a preferred embodiment, the first plate 31 can be fixed to the rotating sleeve 2 by screws or clips for easy disassembly and cleaning.

[0059] By employing the design of the first plate 31, this application provides a highly efficient garlic peeler that significantly improves peeling efficiency and thoroughness. Compared with existing technologies, the garlic peeler of this application has been structurally optimized. By increasing the contact area with the garlic cloves and using multi-angle friction, it effectively solves the problem of incomplete peeling and further enhances the user experience.

[0060] Specifically, the garlic peeling structure 3 also includes a plurality of friction posts 32 protruding from the outer surface of the rotating sleeve 2. The plurality of friction posts 32 are circumferentially distributed around the central axis of the rotating sleeve 2 and are spaced apart along the axial direction of the transmission shaft 1, and at least two friction posts 32 protrude from the outer surface of the rotating sleeve 2 by different distances.

[0061] Friction columns 32 are circumferentially distributed around the central axis of the rotating sleeve 2 and spaced apart along the axial direction of the drive shaft 1. The varying protrusion distances of the friction columns 32 increase the friction and contact area between the garlic cloves and the garlic peeler, causing the garlic cloves to undergo irregular frictional movement within the food processor's container, thus effectively peeling the garlic skin and improving peeling efficiency and thoroughness. Through these technical means, the problems of low efficiency and incomplete peeling in existing garlic peelers are solved. The arrangement of multiple friction columns 32 and their varying protrusion distances ensure that the garlic cloves experience friction in different directions and with different forces during peeling, enhancing the peeling effect and preventing garlic skin residue from remaining on the cloves.

[0062] Furthermore, the design of the friction posts 32 can be implemented in various ways. For example, the friction posts 32 can be made of a different material than the rotating sleeve 2 to increase their wear resistance and friction. The shape of the friction posts 32 can also be diversified, such as cylindrical, square, or other polygonal shapes, to adapt to different garlic-peeling needs. In addition, the surface of the friction posts 32 can be specially treated, such as adding texture or coating, to further improve its friction effect. The number and distribution of the friction posts 32 can also be adjusted according to actual needs, such as increasing the number of friction posts 32 or adjusting their spacing to achieve the best garlic-peeling effect.

[0063] With this design, the garlic peeler of this application can provide stronger friction and a larger contact area during the garlic peeling process, so that the garlic cloves can perform irregular frictional movements in the food processor container, thereby achieving a more efficient and thorough garlic peeling effect.

[0064] Specifically, the cross-section of the friction column 32 is circular, and the central axis of the friction column 32 is perpendicular to the rotation axis of the rotating sleeve 2.

[0065] The friction column 32 has a circular cross-section, and its central axis is perpendicular to the rotation axis of the rotating sleeve 2. This design ensures that the friction column 32 can fully contact the garlic cloves during rotation. The circular cross-section provides a uniform contact surface, avoiding insufficient contact caused by irregular shapes. Through this design, the friction column 32 can peel the garlic skin more effectively, improving the efficiency and effect of peeling garlic.

[0066] The friction column 32 has a circular cross-section, which means that it can provide uniform friction when in contact with the garlic clove, thus avoiding the problem of insufficient contact caused by irregular shape. The central axis of the friction column 32 is perpendicular to the rotation axis of the rotating sleeve 2, which ensures that the friction column 32 maintains effective contact with the garlic clove during rotation.

[0067] Specifically, by setting multiple friction posts 32 on the outer surface of the rotating sleeve 2 and distributing these friction posts 32 circumferentially around the central axis of the rotating sleeve 2 and arranging them at intervals along the axial direction of the transmission shaft 1, and by having at least two friction posts 32 protrude from the outer surface of the rotating sleeve 2 by different distances, the effect and efficiency of peeling garlic are further improved.

[0068] Through the aforementioned technical means, this application effectively solves the problem of insufficient contact between the friction column 32 and the garlic cloves in the prior art, ensuring that the friction column 32 can fully contact the garlic cloves during rotation, thereby improving the efficiency and effectiveness of garlic peeling. Compared with the prior art, the design of this application can provide uniform friction force, avoiding the problem of insufficient contact caused by irregular shape, making the garlic peeling process more efficient and thorough.

[0069] Specifically, the rotating sleeve 2 is provided with a fourth guide portion 24 connected to the third guide portion 23. The fourth guide portion 24 extends from the outer surface of the third guide portion 23 to a position close to the rotation axis of the rotating sleeve 2. The connection between the fourth guide portion 24 and the third guide portion 23 has an arc-shaped transition surface. A first plane 241 is formed on the part of the fourth guide portion 24 away from the third guide portion 23. The first plane 241 is parallel to the bottom surface of the container of the food processor.

[0070] The rotating sleeve 2 includes a fourth guide section 24 connected to the third guide section 23. The fourth guide section 24 extends close to the rotation axis of the rotating sleeve 2 and has an arc-shaped transition surface where it connects with the third guide section 23. The distal end of the fourth guide section 24 forms a plane parallel to the bottom surface of the food processor container. This design allows for more complex and varied movement of garlic cloves within the container, thereby improving the peeling effect.

[0071] The arc-shaped transition surface at the connection between the fourth guide section 24 and the third guide section 23 can reduce the jamming of garlic cloves during movement and ensure smooth flow of garlic cloves in the garlic peeler. The first plane 241 formed at the distal end of the fourth guide section 24 is parallel to the bottom surface of the food processor container, improving the rotational stability of the rotating sleeve 2.

[0072] Specifically, the drive shaft 1 includes a first rotating shaft 11 for connecting to the output end of the motor of the food processor and a transmission component 12 connected between the first rotating shaft 11 and the rotating sleeve 2. The first rotating shaft 11 and the transmission component 12 are detachably connected, and the transmission component 12 and the rotating sleeve 2 are detachably connected.

[0073] The drive shaft 1 includes a first rotating shaft 11 and a transmission component 12. The first rotating shaft 11 is used to connect to the motor output end of the food processor, and the transmission component 12 is used to connect the first rotating shaft 11 and the rotating sleeve 2. Both the first rotating shaft 11 and the transmission component 12, and the transmission component 12 and the rotating sleeve 2, are detachably connected. This design allows the drive shaft 1 to be easily disassembled and connected, improving the flexibility of use and ease of maintenance of the garlic peeler. This detachable connection design solves the problem of inconvenient connection between the drive shaft 1 and the food processor motor output end, as well as the rotating sleeve 2, improving the practicality of the device and the user experience.

[0074] Specifically, when the first rotating shaft 11 of the drive shaft 1 is connected to the motor output end of the food processor, it can be achieved through threads, snaps, or other common detachable connection methods. The connection between the transmission component 12 and the first rotating shaft 11 and the rotating sleeve 2 can also employ a similar detachable connection method. These connection methods not only simplify disassembly and installation but also facilitate cleaning and maintenance. As a preferred embodiment, the transmission component 12 can be designed with a certain degree of elasticity to ensure a tight fit during connection, preventing loosening or detachment.

[0075] Therefore, by adopting a detachable drive shaft 1 design, this application significantly improves the ease of assembly and disassembly of the garlic peeler. Compared with the prior art, it has the following advantages: First, it simplifies the installation and disassembly process of the drive shaft 1, making it more convenient for users during use and maintenance; second, the detachable connection method facilitates the cleaning of the drive shaft 1 and related components, ensuring the hygiene of the equipment; finally, it enhances the adaptability and flexibility of the equipment, enabling it to better meet the needs of different users.

[0076] Specifically, the rotating sleeve 2 has a first through hole 20 penetrating its body. The transmission component 12 includes a first mounting component 121 for insertion into the first through hole 20 and transmission cooperation with the rotating sleeve 2. The first mounting component 121 is provided with two first stop plates 1211. The inner wall of the rotating sleeve 2 is provided with a first limiting strip 25 for insertion between the two first stop plates 1211. The extension directions of the first limiting strip 25 and the first stop plates 1211 are parallel to the rotation axis of the rotating sleeve 2. The first mounting component 121 is also provided with a second stop plate 1212. The extension direction of the second stop plate 1212 is perpendicular to the extension direction of the first stop plate 1211. The second stop plate 1212 is used to stop and abut against the outer wall of the rotating sleeve 2.

[0077] The first through hole 20 on the rotating sleeve 2 mates with the first mounting part 121 of the transmission component 12. The two first stop plates 1211 on the first mounting part 121 mate with the first limiting strip 25 on the inner wall of the rotating sleeve 2, ensuring connection stability. The extending directions of the first limiting strip 25 and the first stop plates 1211 are parallel to the rotation axis of the rotating sleeve 2, ensuring stability in the rotational direction. The second stop plate 1212 on the first mounting part 121 abuts against the outer wall of the rotating sleeve 2, further ensuring a stable connection between the transmission component 12 and the rotating sleeve 2. Through the cooperation of these features, the problem of a stable connection between the transmission component 12 and the rotating sleeve 2 is solved.

[0078] Specifically, in this embodiment, two sets of first stop plates 1211 are provided and are symmetrically arranged along the central axis of the first mounting member 121, and two first limit bars 25 are provided to further enhance transmission stability.

[0079] The first mounting component 121 can be made of metal to ensure its strength and durability. The first stop plate 1211 can be fixed to the first mounting component 121 by welding or screws to ensure its positional stability. The first limiting strip 25 can be designed to be integrally formed with the inner wall of the rotating sleeve 2, or fixed to the inner wall of the rotating sleeve 2 by adhesive bonding. The second stop plate 1212 can be designed to be integrally formed with the first mounting component 121, or fixed to the first mounting component 121 by screws. The outer wall of the rotating sleeve 2 can be provided with a groove that mates with the second stop plate 1212 to further enhance the stability of the connection.

[0080] This application ensures a stable connection between the transmission component 12 and the rotating sleeve 2 by providing features such as a first through hole 20, a first stop plate 1211, a first limiting strip 25, and a second stop plate 1212. Compared with the prior art, the technical solution of this application not only ensures a stable connection between the transmission component 12 and the rotating sleeve 2, but also maintains the stability of the connection during rotation, avoiding loosening or detachment caused by rotation. This improves the working efficiency and reliability of the garlic peeler.

[0081] Specifically, the transmission component 12 also includes a second mounting component 122 that is installed in conjunction with the first mounting component 121. The second mounting component 122 is provided with a first base plate 1221, which is used to support the bottom of the rotating sleeve 2. The second mounting component 122 is provided with a second limiting strip 1222. The first mounting component 121 is also provided with a first slot 1213 for accommodating the second limiting strip 1222. The extension direction of the second limiting strip 1222 is parallel to the extension direction of the first limiting strip 25.

[0082] Specifically, there are two second limiting strips 1222 and two first slots 1213. The top of the second mounting member 122 is provided with a fourth stop plate 1226. The fourth stop plate 1226 is provided with two first notches 1227 for the first stop plate 1211 of the rotating sleeve 2 to pass through. The inner wall of the top of the rotating sleeve 2 has a second protrusion 26 that protrudes radially. The second protrusion 26 is used to abut against the fourth stop plate 1226 to limit the axial displacement of the second mounting member 1222.

[0083] The transmission component 12 includes a second mounting component 122 that mates with the first mounting component 121. The second mounting component 122 has a first base plate 1221 that supports the bottom of the rotating sleeve 2, thus stabilizing its installation. The second mounting component 122 has a second limiting strip 1222, and the first mounting component 121 has a first slot 1213 for accommodating the second limiting strip 1222. The extension direction of the second limiting strip 1222 is parallel to the extension direction of the first limiting strip 25. This mating method ensures greater stability and reliability of the transmission component 12 during use.

[0084] Furthermore, the first base plate 1221 can be made of a wear-resistant material to improve its service life. Multiple second limiting strips 1222 can be provided to increase installation stability. The first slot 1213 can be designed to have a certain degree of elasticity to facilitate installation and disassembly. Therefore, by providing a second mounting member 122 on the transmission member 12, and by providing a first base plate 1221 and second limiting strips 1222 on the second mounting member 122, this application makes the transmission member 12 more stable and reliable during installation and use.

[0085] Specifically, the transmission component 12 further includes a third mounting component 123 that is installed in conjunction with the second mounting component 122. The second mounting component 122 has a second through hole 1220, and the third mounting component 123 has a first protrusion 1231 for insertion into the second through hole 1220. The first protrusion 1231 is provided with two third stop plates 1232. The second through hole 1220 of the second mounting component 122 is provided with a third limiting strip for insertion between the two third stop plates 1232 (in this embodiment, the third limiting strip and the second limiting strip 1222 are integrally constructed, that is, the same straight strip that radially protrudes from the second through hole 1220. In actual use, they can be set as two independent strips). In this embodiment, there are four third stop plates 1232, two in a group, and two third limiting strips are provided accordingly to enhance the transmission stability of the two. The extension directions of the third stop plates 1232 and the third limiting strips are parallel to the rotation axis of the rotating sleeve 2.

[0086] Specifically, the third mounting member 123 is further provided with at least two elastic arms 1233, the extending direction of the elastic arms 1233 being parallel to the extending direction of the third stop plate 1232. Each elastic arm 1233 is provided with an elastic latching protrusion 1234, which has an inclined first guide surface and an arc-shaped second guide surface. The extending direction of the elastic latching protrusion 1234 is perpendicular to the extending direction of the elastic arm 1233. The bottom of the second mounting member 122 is provided with a third through hole 1228 communicating with the second through hole 1220. The third through hole 1228 is used to accommodate the elastic latching protrusion 1234. In use, the structure of the elastic latching protrusion 1234 allows the first protrusion 1231 to be inserted into the second through hole 1220. After the elastic latching protrusion 1234 enters the third through hole 1228, it connects the third mounting member 123 with the second mounting member 122.

[0087] Furthermore, the third mounting component 123 also includes a second base plate 1230, the first protrusion 1231 protruding from the surface of the second base plate 1230, the second base plate 1230 having two protruding semi-rings 1235, the bottom of the first base plate 1221 having a first ring 1224 inserted between the two semi-rings 1235, the bottom of the first base plate 1221 having a first snap-fit ​​groove 1225 recessed, and the top of the second base plate 1230 having a second ring 1236 inserted into and cooperating with the first snap-fit ​​groove 1225.

[0088] Specifically, the bottom of the second base plate 1230 of the third mounting component 123 is provided with a positioning groove 1237. A silicone sealing ring can be added to the inner wall of the positioning groove 1237. In use, the third mounting component 123 can be installed at the bottom of the container of the food processor by means of the positioning groove 1237 (the bottom of the container is provided with a positioning shaft for inserting into the positioning groove 1237).

[0089] Specifically, the second base plate 1230, the first protrusion 1231, and the elastic arm 1233 are an integral structure.

[0090] In actual use, the first mounting component 121, the second mounting component 122, and the third mounting component 123 are detachably connected via the aforementioned structure. The rotating sleeve 2 is fitted onto the outside of the first mounting component 121 and the second mounting component 122 and is connected to them via a transmission mechanism. The first base plate 1221 of the second mounting component 122 supports the first plane 241 of the fourth guide portion 24 of the rotating sleeve 2. The upper end of the rotating sleeve 2 is connected to the output shaft of the food processor's motor via the first mounting component 121 and the transmission shaft 1. The lower end of the rotating sleeve 2 is mounted on the positioning shaft at the bottom of the container via the positioning groove 1237 of the third mounting component 123. Furthermore, the radial stop of the first mounting component 121 and the second mounting component 122 ensures that the rotating sleeve 2 can rotate stably within the container without deviating. This structural design balances assembly efficiency and maintainability while also ensuring the stability of the rotating sleeve 2.

[0091] This invention, through an innovative design concept, achieves a highly efficient, stable, and easy-to-clean garlic peeler for food processors. The combination of the rotating sleeve 2 and the drive shaft 1 allows the garlic skin to be quickly peeled off through friction, while the optimized design of the friction column 32 and the guide part improves the efficiency and uniformity of peeling. The design of the transmission component 12 takes into account both the maintainability and rotational stability of the rotating sleeve 2. This design features a simple structure, good applicability, and easy maintenance, meeting the demands of modern kitchen equipment for efficiency, hygiene, and convenience.
