Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of kitchenware technology, and in particular to an installation structure for an electronic kitchen scale and a kitchenware with weighing function. Background Technology

[0002] Taking a stand mixer as an example, as a multi-functional kitchen appliance, it is widely used in both Chinese and Western pastry making, mainly for functions such as kneading dough, beating eggs, and mixing. However, some traditional stand mixers lack a weighing function, which to some extent limits their application in precise ingredient mixing. Currently, stand mixers with weighing functions mainly take two forms:

[0003] 1. A food processor with a built-in weighing sensor has an upper support base and a lower support base at the bottom of the machine, connected by a weighing sensor, which allows for real-time monitoring of the weight of ingredients. Because the weighing component is built into the food processor (also known as a built-in weighing system), if the weighing function malfunctions, repair and maintenance are more complicated, resulting in higher after-sales costs.

[0004] Second, an additional weighing plate can be installed at the bottom of the food processor for weighing, which is similar to placing the food processor on an electronic scale. However, this method is more complex, increases the overall manufacturing cost, and is more likely to be damaged during transportation or use.

[0005] Therefore, a new technical solution needs to be researched to address the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0006] In view of this, the present invention addresses the deficiencies of the existing technology, and its main purpose is to provide a kitchenware electronic scale installation structure and a kitchenware with weighing function. By cleverly changing the bottom shell structure of the kitchenware, the weighing module and support feet can be directly installed on the bottom plate of the bottom shell, which is convenient for installation, maintenance and disassembly. At the same time, the enclosure structure forms a space for easy wiring.

[0007] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0033] An installation structure for an electronic kitchen scale includes a kitchen base shell 10 and a plurality of weighing modules 20 disposed on the kitchen base shell 10.

[0034] The kitchen appliance bottom shell 10 has a bottom plate portion 11, and a flange 12 extends downward from the periphery of the bottom plate portion 11. The flange 12 and the bottom surface of the bottom plate portion 11 form an accommodating space 13. A reinforcing rib 113 protrudes from the bottom surface of the bottom plate portion 11, and the connecting line of the weighing module 22 is routed along the reinforcing rib 113, which facilitates wiring.

[0035] The weighing module 20 is located within the accommodating space 13; the weighing module 20 includes a fixed base 21, a weighing module 22, and a support foot 23; one end of the weighing module 22 is connected to the fixed base 21, and the other end of the weighing module 22 is connected to the support foot 23; the fixed base 21 is installed on the bottom surface of the base plate 11, and a weighing gap D is maintained between the top of the other end of the weighing module 22 and the bottom surface of the base plate 11.

[0036] Typically, a cover plate 30 is also provided below the bottom shell 10 of the kitchenware. The cover plate 30 has through holes 31 that match the support feet 23. The cover plate 30 is detachably installed at the bottom of the bottom shell 10 of the kitchenware. The support feet 23 pass through the through holes 31 and protrude below the cover plate 30. In this embodiment, several connecting protrusions 111 are provided on the bottom surface of the base plate 11. The cover plate 30 is locked into the fourth screw through the locking hole 33 at the bottom and connected to the inner hole of the connecting protrusion 111. The bottom surface of the fourth screw usually does not extend beyond the bottom surface of the base plate 11. During disassembly, the operation is performed directly on the outside of the cover plate 30. The cover plate 30 can be removed to inspect the weighing module 20. The weighing module 20 is also a detachable structure, and the entire weighing module 20 or some parts can be replaced, which is very convenient. Furthermore, the bottom surface of the cover plate 30 is provided with an overload protection protrusion 32. The bottom surface of the overload protection protrusion 32 is higher than the bottom surface of the support foot 23. Here, the description of "higher" refers to the vertical direction, with "higher" being higher and "lower" being lower, and does not refer to the protrusion height. If there is excessive weight or abnormally large downward pressure for any reason, the overload protection protrusion 32 will contact the countertop where the kitchen utensils are placed, forming a support and protection to prevent damage to the weighing module 22 under abnormal circumstances.

[0037] In this embodiment, the bottom surface of the fixed base 21 is recessed with a positioning groove 211. One end of the weighing module 22 is located in the positioning groove 211, and the top surface of one end of the weighing module 22 is in contact with the inner top surface of the positioning groove 211 for positioning. The inner top surface of the positioning groove 211 is provided with a first connecting hole 212 that extends upward through the top of the fixed base 21. One end of the weighing module 22 is provided with a second connecting hole 221 that extends vertically through the top and bottom surfaces of the weighing module 22. A first screw 24 is provided to connect the first connecting hole 212 and the second connecting hole 221. Specifically, the first screw 24 passes through the first connecting hole 212 and is threadedly fixed in the second connecting hole 221. The second connecting hole 221 may have an internal thread. Alternatively, the first screw 24 may extend upward through the top surface of one end of the weighing module 22 and be locked with a nut. The fixing base 21 is provided with a third connecting hole 213 extending vertically through the top and bottom of the fixing base 21. The bottom surface of the base plate 11 is provided with a fourth connecting hole 112 extending vertically. The fixing base 21 is installed on the bottom surface of the base plate 11 by means of a second screw 25 passing through the third connecting hole 213 and connecting to the fourth connecting hole 112. Multiple third connecting holes 213 are provided, which are respectively located at one end and both sides of the positioning groove 211. In this embodiment, three third connecting holes 213 are provided in a triangular arrangement to ensure that the fixing base 21 is firmly and reliably installed on the bottom surface of the base plate 11. The fixed base 21 has an extended portion 214 extending toward the other end of the weighing module 22. Both sides of the extended portion 214 extend downward with limiting edges 215. The inner top surface of the positioning groove 211 is lower than the bottom surface of the extended portion 214. The other end of the weighing module 22 is located below the extended portion 214 and between the limiting edges 215 on both sides. The weighing gap D is formed between the top surface of the other end of the weighing module 22 and the bottom surface of the extended portion 214. During use, the downward deformation and upward reset of the other end of the weighing module 22 are restricted by the bottom surface of the extended portion 214 and the limiting edges 215 on both sides, which helps to improve the weighing stability and reliability.

[0038] Furthermore, a kitchen appliance with a weighing function is provided, which utilizes the kitchen appliance electronic scale mounting structure described in any of the preceding embodiments. This embodiment uses a kitchen appliance with a lifting mechanism as an example. The illustration only shows the lower body of the kitchen appliance with the lifting mechanism; the upper body and the entire lifting mechanism are not shown. This is a mature technology and is not intended to limit the application. Since the electronic scale mounting structure cleverly modifies the structure of the kitchen appliance's base shell 10, it is not limited to specific types of kitchen appliances, such as food processors, blenders, multi-functional cooking machines, air fryers, ovens, etc. It is applicable to any kitchen appliance with a base shell that requires a weighing function.

[0039] The key design feature of this utility model is that by extending the periphery of the bottom plate portion 11 of the kitchen utensil base shell 10 downward to form a flange 12, a receiving space 13 is formed between the flange 12 and the bottom surface of the bottom plate portion 11. In this way, the structure of the kitchen utensil base shell 10 is cleverly changed, and the weighing module 20 and the support foot 23 can be directly installed on the bottom surface of the bottom plate portion 11 of the base shell. The installation and maintenance are convenient, and the receiving space 13 formed by the enclosure facilitates wiring.
