Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of juicer technology, and in particular to a multi-stage spiral juicer. Background Technology

[0002] The spiral juicer is an innovative fruit and vegetable juicing device that uses low-speed rotating spiral pressing technology to effectively extract juice from fruits and vegetables. Its unique design not only increases the juice yield but also maximizes the retention of nutrients, reduces oxidation, and ensures the fresh taste and rich nutrition of the juice.

[0003] However, most traditional juicers use a single processing method, lacking pre-treatment such as cutting and crushing. The processing of different materials is integrated, which cannot be finely broken down, reducing the fineness of the juice and the juice yield.

[0004] Therefore, those skilled in the art have provided a multi-stage spiral juicer to solve the problems mentioned in the background art. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by proposing a multi-stage spiral juicer. This juicer is equipped with a cutting mechanism, a crushing mechanism, and a juicing mechanism. The cutting mechanism uses ring blades to divide the material into large pieces. The crushing mechanism, controlled by a first rotating shaft, uses multiple cutting blades to crush and pulverize the material, breaking it down into smaller pieces so that the juicing mechanism can process and squeeze it more effectively. Finally, the juicing mechanism uses auger blades to transport the material from the narrow end of a trapezoidal shaft to the coarse end, completing the juicing process. Through multi-stage processing of cutting, crushing, and squeezing, the juice from fruits and vegetables can be effectively extracted. The low-speed squeezing by the servo motor and the multi-stage processing design reduce oxidation, thus preventing nutrient loss and maintaining higher nutritional value.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution:

[0007] A multi-stage spiral juicer includes a support frame, an upper end of which is provided with a squeezing and juicing mechanism, the squeezing and juicing mechanism including a bottom placement shell, a trapezoidal shaft rotatably connected to the middle of the inner wall of the front end of the bottom placement shell, an auger blade fixedly connected to the outer wall of the trapezoidal shaft, and a crushing mechanism provided at the front of the upper end of the squeezing and juicing mechanism, the crushing mechanism including a middle placement shell, a first rotating shaft rotatably connected to the center of the inner wall of the front end of the middle placement shell, and a plurality of cutting blades hinged to the middle of the outer wall of the first rotating shaft;

[0014] Furthermore, the middle placement shell is fixedly connected to the front end of the upper surface of the bottom placement shell. A limiting seat is fixedly connected to one side of the upper outer wall of the front end of the middle placement shell. A limiting slider is slidably connected to the inner wall of the limiting seat. A connecting frame is fixedly connected to the outer wall of one side of the limiting slider. A tensioning wheel is rotatably connected to one side of the outer wall of the front end of the connecting frame. A threaded rod is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the other side of the limiting slider. A tensioning spring is sleeved in the middle of the outer wall of the threaded rod. An adjusting nut and a fastening nut are threadedly fitted to one side of the outer wall of the threaded rod.

[0015] The above technical solution allows users to adjust the tension spring force by using the adjusting nut and the fastening nut, thereby causing the connecting frame to pull the tension wheel to apply the same force to the belt, thus improving the stability of the belt connection.
