Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of food processing, and more particularly to a base and a food processor. Background Technology

[0002] With the continuous improvement of people's living standards, many different types of food processors have appeared on the market. The functions of food processors mainly include, but are not limited to, making soy milk, juicing, rice paste, mincing meat, shaved ice, making coffee, and / or preparing face masks. Food processors can include soy milk makers, blenders, or high-speed blenders—machines that pulverize and mix food. Existing food processors are large and tall, taking up a lot of space and prone to vibration during use. Utility Model Content

[0003] This application provides a base and a food processor, which has a small overall height, occupies little space, and generates less vibration during use.

[0004] This application provides a base. The base includes a base and a support seat disposed on the base. A power assembly is housed within the support seat. The power assembly includes a power box and a power component assembled within the power box. The support seat has a wire hole for a lead wire to pass through. The power box includes a water-guiding structure disposed above the power component and below the wire hole. Because the power component is disposed within the support seat, compared to a design where the power components are stacked within the base, the height of the base can be reduced, thereby effectively reducing the height of the food processor and making the overall food processor more compact and space-saving. Simultaneously, because the water-guiding structure is located below the wire hole and above the power component, water entering the support seat from the wire hole will fall onto the water-guiding structure, which will drain the water away, thus preventing water from contacting the power component and ensuring high safety.

[0005] Furthermore, the support base includes an outer wall, an inner wall, and a top wall. The wire hole passes through the top wall, and a first water-blocking rib is provided between the wire hole and the inner wall. The first water-blocking rib extends from the top wall to the top of the water-guiding structure. By providing the first water-blocking rib, water entering the support base from the wire hole can be guided to the water-guiding structure, preventing water from flowing into the gap between the inner wall of the support base and the power supply box.

[0006] Furthermore, the water guiding structure includes a second water-blocking rib, which cooperates with the first water-blocking rib to block water. By cooperating with the first water-blocking rib, water entering the support base can be more reliably guided to the water guiding structure.

[0007] Furthermore, the support base includes an outer wall, an inner wall, and a top wall. The wire hole passes through the top wall, and the water-guiding structure is provided with a water-blocking rib. The water-blocking rib extends upward from the top of the water-guiding structure and abuts against the top wall of the support base, and the water-blocking rib is located between the wire hole and the inner wall. By providing the water-blocking rib, water entering the support base from the wire hole can be guided to the water-guiding structure, preventing water from flowing into the gap between the inner wall of the support base and the power supply box.

[0008] Furthermore, the water guiding structure includes a drainage surface and a blocking rib disposed at the bottom end of the drainage surface, with a drain outlet at one or both ends of the blocking rib. Thus, water entering the support base flows downwards along the drainage surface, is blocked by the blocking rib at the bottom end of the drainage surface, and finally falls out from the drain outlet, thereby preventing the water from reaching the power supply component.

[0009] Furthermore, the projection of the drain outlet onto the plane where the power supply unit is located is offset from the position of the power supply unit. This better prevents water falling from the drain outlet from contacting the power supply unit.

[0010] Furthermore, the drainage surface is configured as an inclined surface or an arc surface. In this way, the drainage surface can effectively drain water.

[0011] Furthermore, the base includes a base housing and a bottom cover at the bottom end of the base housing, the bottom cover being provided with a drain hole. By providing the drain hole, water falling from the water-guiding structure is ultimately discharged from the base through the drain hole.

[0012] Furthermore, the power supply box includes a receiving cavity formed by a top wall, a bottom wall, and two side walls. The power supply component is disposed within the receiving cavity, and the water-guiding structure is connected to the top wall. This design better prevents water from contacting the power supply component, protecting it and facilitating installation.

[0013] This application provides a food processor. The food processor includes: a base as described above; a mixing cup assembly assembled on the base, the mixing cup assembly including a mixing cup, a heating plate, and a blade assembly, the heating plate and the blade assembly being disposed at the bottom of the mixing cup; a lid assembled on the support base, the lid covering the mixing cup assembly, and a control component housed within the lid; and a motor assembled within the base or at the bottom of the mixing cup, the motor driving the blade assembly to rotate. Because the control component is disposed within the lid and the power supply component within the support base, the space within the lid can accommodate the control component, and the space within the support base can accommodate the power supply component, avoiding stacking the control component and power supply component within the base. This reduces the height of the base, thereby effectively reducing the height of the food processor, making the overall food processor more compact and space-saving. The lower overall height of the food processor also reduces vibration during operation. Furthermore, this arrangement of the control component and power supply component ensures a greater distance between them, preventing electromagnetic interference. Meanwhile, since the water guiding structure is located below the wire hole and above the power supply component, water entering the support base from the wire hole will fall onto the water guiding structure, which will drain the water away, thus preventing the water from contacting the power supply component.

[0014] Furthermore, the cover is rotatably assembled to the support base via two pivots, with the wire hole located between the two pivots. This allows the wire passing through the wire hole to be concealed, resulting in a more aesthetically pleasing appearance for the food processor. Attached Figure Description

[0023] Please see Figures 1 to 6 The food processor 100 can be used to make soy milk, rice paste, juice, etc. The food processor 100 includes a base 10, a mixing cup assembly 20, a lid 30, and a motor 40.

[0024] The base 10 includes a base 11 and a support 12 disposed on the base 11. The support 12 and the base 11 can be integrally formed or separately formed and then assembled together. A power assembly 18 is disposed within the support 12. The power assembly 18 includes a power box 121 and a power component 13 assembled within the power box 121. The support 12 has a wire hole 122 for the lead wire to pass through. The power box 121 includes a water guiding structure 123 disposed above the power component 13, and the water guiding structure 123 is located below the wire hole 122. During the use of the food processor 100, water may enter the support 12 through the wire hole 122. The water guiding structure 123 is used to drain the ingress water, preventing water from flowing onto the power component 13.

[0025] The power supply component 13 can be a wired or wireless power source, such as a power board or a storage battery, and is not limited thereto. The power supply component 13 can be fixed inside the power box 121 by means of fasteners, clips, adhesives, etc.

[0026] The mixing cup assembly 20 is assembled on the base 11. The mixing cup assembly 20 includes a mixing cup 21, a heating plate 22, and a blade assembly 23. The heating plate 22 and the blade assembly 23 are disposed at the bottom of the mixing cup 21. The mixing cup 21 is used to hold food ingredients, the heating plate 22 is used to heat the food ingredients in the mixing cup 21, and the blade assembly 23 is used to stir and grind the food ingredients in the mixing cup 21.

[0027] The cover 30 is assembled on the support base 12, and the cover 30 covers the mixing cup assembly 20. The control component 31 is provided inside the cover 30. The control component 31 is electrically connected to the power supply component 13 through a lead wire, which passes through a wire hole 122 on the top wall of the support base 12.

[0028] The cover 30 includes a cover housing 37, an operation panel 36, and a control box 35. The control component 31 is disposed inside the cover housing 37, the control box 35 covers the control component 31, and the operation panel 36 is fixed on the control box 35. The cover housing 37 is provided with another wire hole (not shown) for the lead wire to pass through, which corresponds to the position of the aforementioned wire hole 122.

[0029] The motor 40 is assembled inside the base 11 or at the bottom of the stirring cup 21, and the motor 40 is used to drive the blade assembly 23 to rotate. Figure 2 In the illustrated embodiment, the motor 40 is assembled within the base 11, and the output shaft of the motor 40 is connected to the blade assembly 23 via a clutch structure. In another embodiment, the motor 40 is assembled at the bottom of the mixing cup 21, and the output shaft of the motor 40 is directly driven connected to the blade assembly 23.

[0030] Since the control component 31 is located inside the cover 30 and the power supply component 13 is located inside the support base 12, the space inside the cover 30 can accommodate the control component 31, and the space inside the support base 12 can accommodate the power supply component 13. This avoids stacking the control component 31 and the power supply component 13 inside the base 11, thus reducing the height of the base 11 and effectively reducing the height of the food processor 100, making the food processor 100 more compact and exquisite, occupying less space. Because the overall height of the food processor 100 is lower, the vibration generated by the food processor 100 during operation can be reduced. At the same time, this arrangement of the control component 31 and the power supply component 13 ensures that there is a greater distance between them, avoiding electromagnetic interference between the control component 31 and the power supply component 13. Furthermore, since the water guiding structure 123 is located below the wire hole 122 and above the power supply component 13, water entering the support base 12 from the wire hole 122 will fall onto the water guiding structure 123, which will drain the water away, thus preventing the water from contacting the power supply component 13.

[0031] In the illustrated embodiment, the support base 12 includes an outer wall 125, an inner wall 126, and a top wall 127. The wire hole 122 passes through the top wall 127, and a first water-blocking rib 124 is provided between the wire hole 122 and the inner wall 126. The first water-blocking rib 124 extends from the top wall 127 to the top of the water-guiding structure 123. By providing the first water-blocking rib 124, water entering the support base 12 from the wire hole 122 can be guided to the water-guiding structure 123, preventing water from flowing into the gap between the inner wall of the support base 12 and the power box 121.

[0032] The water guiding structure 123 includes a second water-blocking rib 1234, which cooperates with the first water-blocking rib 124 to block water. By cooperating with the first water-blocking rib 124, the water entering the support base 12 can be more reliably guided to the water guiding structure 123.

[0033] In another embodiment, the support base 12 includes an outer wall 125, an inner wall 126, and a top wall 127. The wire hole 122 passes through the top wall 127. The water guiding structure 123 is provided with a water-blocking rib. The water-blocking rib extends upward from the top of the water guiding structure 123 and abuts against the top wall of the support base 12, and the water-blocking rib is located between the wire hole 122 and the inner wall 126. By providing the water-blocking rib, water entering the support base 12 from the wire hole 122 can be guided to the water guiding structure 123, preventing water from flowing into the gap between the inner wall of the support base 12 and the power box 121.

[0034] The water guiding structure 123 includes a flow-guiding surface 1231 and a blocking rib 1232 disposed at the bottom end of the flow-guiding surface 1231. One or both ends of the blocking rib 1232 are provided with drain outlets 1233. In this way, water entering the support base 12 flows down along the flow-guiding surface 1231, is blocked by the blocking rib 1232 at the bottom end of the flow-guiding surface 1231, and finally falls down from the drain outlet 1233, thereby allowing the water to avoid the power supply component 13.

[0035] In one embodiment, the projection of the drain outlet 1233 onto the plane where the power supply component 13 is located is offset from the position of the power supply component 13. This better prevents water falling from the drain outlet 1233 from contacting the power supply component 13.

[0036] Preferably, the drainage surface 1231 is configured as an inclined surface or an arc surface. In this way, the drainage surface 1231 can effectively drain water. Of course, the drainage surface 1231 can also be configured as other shapes, which are not limited here.

[0037] The base 11 includes a base housing 111 and a bottom cover 112 disposed at the bottom end of the base housing 111. The bottom cover 112 is provided with a drain hole 1121. By providing the drain hole 1121, water falling from the water guiding structure 123 is eventually discharged from the base through the drain hole 1121.

[0038] The power supply box 121 includes a receiving cavity 1214 formed by a top wall 1211, a bottom wall 1212, and two side walls 1213. The power supply component 13 is disposed within the receiving cavity 1214, and the water guiding structure 123 is connected to the top wall 1211. This design better prevents water from contacting the power supply component 13, protecting it and facilitating installation.

[0039] The support base 12 includes a cavity 129 with a lower opening 128, and the power supply assembly 18 is inserted into the cavity 129 through the lower opening 128. This design is simple, easy to assemble, and has low assembly costs. Guide ribs (not shown) that cooperate with the power supply box 121 can be provided inside the support base 12 to guide and position the power supply assembly 18.

[0040] The cover 30 is rotatably assembled to the support base 12 via two pivots, and the wire hole 122 is located between the two pivots. In this way, the wire passing through the wire hole 122 can be hidden and not exposed, making the food processor 100 more aesthetically pleasing.

[0041] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this application and is not intended to limit this application. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this application should be included within the scope of protection of this application.
