Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of small household appliances, and more particularly to 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. Currently, the mixing cup assembly of existing food processors is placed on the base, which is prone to shifting, with large offset distances leading to significant positional deviations of the mixing cup assembly relative to the base, resulting in unstable assembly. Utility Model Content

[0003] This application provides a food processor in which the mixing cup assembly is stably assembled to the base.

[0004] This application provides a food processor, which includes:

[0005] The base includes a base and a support extending upward from the base, the base having a downwardly recessed groove;

[0006] The mixing cup assembly is detachably assembled to the base, and when the mixing cup assembly is assembled to the base, the bottom of the mixing cup assembly is located within the groove.

[0007] The base of the food processor of this application has a groove, and the bottom of the mixing cup assembly is located in the groove. The groove limits the movement of the mixing cup assembly relative to the base, reduces the offset of the mixing cup assembly, and ensures that the position of the mixing cup assembly relative to the base is in the specified position, so that the assembly state is reliable and stable.

[0008] Optionally, the mixing cup assembly includes a mixing cup and a blade assembly disposed within the mixing cup. The mixing cup includes a main body and a mating part. The mating part protrudes from the bottom of the main body. The main body includes an outer side of the cup and a mating surface. The mating surface extends inward from the lower edge of the outer side of the cup to the mating part. The mating part extends downward beyond the mating surface. When the mixing cup assembly is assembled on the base, it is received within the groove. The upper surface of the sidewall of the groove supports the mating surface.

[0009] With the above configuration, a stepped structure is formed between the main body and the mating part. When the mating part is received in the groove, the upper surface of the side wall of the groove supports the mating surface, which can position the stirring cup assembly in the vertical direction, ensuring that the stirring cup assembly is installed in place, and reducing the displacement of the stirring cup assembly relative to the base. This is beneficial to the stability of the stirring cup assembly when it is placed on the base and the stability of the assembly state.

[0010] Optionally, the mating part includes a fixing part and a positioning part. The fixing part is inserted into the bottom of the main body, and the positioning part extends downward from the fixing part and protrudes from the bottom of the main body. When the stirring cup assembly is assembled on the base, the positioning part is received in the groove.

[0011] The fixing part is inserted into the bottom of the main body, and the positioning part protrudes downward from the bottom of the main body, which facilitates the fixed installation of the mating part and the main body, and also facilitates the realization of the stepped structure between the main body and the mating part.

[0012] Optionally, the positioning part includes a positioning sidewall and a positioning bottom wall. The positioning sidewall extends from the fixing part out of the main body and gradually extends inward from top to bottom. The positioning bottom wall is connected to the positioning sidewall.

[0013] The positioning sidewalls extend gradually inward from top to bottom. As the positioning part enters the groove, the positioning sidewalls act as a guide, making it easier for the positioning part to be placed into the groove. When the positioning part is fully placed into the groove, the larger size of the top of the positioning part allows it to be more effectively confined within the groove, reducing offset.

[0014] Optionally, the bottom surface of the groove is provided with a first recessed portion that is recessed downwards, and the bottom of the stirring cup assembly is provided with a first protrusion that cooperates with the first recessed portion.

[0015] When the mixing cup assembly is assembled on the base, the first protrusion and the first recess facilitate the positioning of the mixing cup assembly, reduce the displacement of the mixing cup assembly relative to the base, and improve the stability of the mixing cup assembly when it is placed on the base and the stability of the assembled state.

[0016] Optionally, a shock-absorbing pad is provided at the bottom of the first protrusion.

[0017] The first protrusion cooperates with the first recess through a shock-absorbing pad. When the blending cup assembly crushes and blends food during use, it reduces the vibration amplitude of the blending cup assembly relative to the base, thereby reducing the noise generated by the collision between the blending cup assembly and the base during the use of the food processor and improving the user experience of the food processor.

[0018] Optionally, the base is provided with a lower coupler, and the stirring cup is provided with an upper coupler. The lower coupler is connected to the upper coupler, and the lower coupler has a first recess on each side, while the upper coupler has a first protrusion on each side.

[0019] By setting the first protrusion and the first recess, the positioning effect between the base and the stirring cup assembly is improved, thereby ensuring the connection between the lower coupler and the upper coupler, reducing the displacement of the stirring cup assembly relative to the base when it is assembled on the base, and improving the stability of the stirring cup assembly when it is set on the base and the stability of the assembly state.

[0020] Optionally, the lower coupler includes a high-voltage lower coupler and a low-voltage lower coupler, and the upper coupler includes a high-voltage upper coupler and a low-voltage upper coupler. The high-voltage lower coupler is connected to the high-voltage upper coupler, and the low-voltage lower coupler is connected to the low-voltage upper coupler.

[0021] The high-voltage lower coupler has the first recessed portion on both sides, and the high-voltage upper coupler has the first protrusion on both sides; and / or

[0022] The first recessed portion is provided on both sides of the low-voltage lower coupler, and the first protrusion is provided on both sides of the low-voltage upper coupler.

[0023] By setting multiple first protrusions and first recesses, the positioning effect between the base and the stirring cup assembly is improved, thereby ensuring the connection between the high-voltage lower coupler and the high-voltage upper coupler, and between the low-voltage lower coupler and the low-voltage upper coupler. This reduces the displacement of the stirring cup assembly relative to the base when it is assembled, which is beneficial to the stability of the stirring cup assembly when it is placed on the base and the stability of the assembly state.

[0024] Optionally, the base is provided with a lower coupler, and the bottom of the stirring cup assembly is provided with an upper coupler, with the lower coupler docking with the upper coupler;

[0025] The bottom surface of the groove is provided with a second protrusion, the second protrusion is arranged circumferentially along the lower coupler, and the lower coupler protrudes upward from the upper surface of the second protrusion;

[0026] The bottom of the stirring cup assembly is recessed to accommodate the second protrusion, and the upper coupler is located in the second recess.

[0027] The above settings allow for better positioning and coordination, reducing the displacement of the mixing cup assembly relative to the base when it is assembled. This contributes to the stability of the mixing cup assembly when it is placed on the base and the stability of the assembled state.

[0028] Optionally, the lower coupler includes a high-voltage lower coupler and a low-voltage lower coupler, and the upper coupler includes a high-voltage upper coupler and a low-voltage upper coupler. The high-voltage lower coupler is connected to the high-voltage upper coupler, and the low-voltage lower coupler is connected to the low-voltage upper coupler.

[0029] The second protrusion is arranged circumferentially along the lower high-voltage coupler, and the upper high-voltage coupler is located in the second recess; and / or

[0030] The second protrusion is arranged circumferentially along the lower weak current coupler, and the upper weak current coupler is located in the second recess.

[0031] The above settings facilitate the positioning of the base and the mixing cup assembly, thereby ensuring the connection between the high-voltage lower coupler and the high-voltage upper coupler, and between the low-voltage lower coupler and the low-voltage upper coupler. This reduces the displacement of the mixing cup assembly relative to the base when it is assembled, and improves the stability of the mixing cup assembly when it is placed on the base and the stability of the assembly state.

[0032] Optionally, the upper surface of the second protrusion is flush with the upper surface of the sidewall of the groove.

[0033] This makes it easier to process and form the second protrusion and groove.

[0034] Optionally, the upper surface of the second protrusion is lower than the upper surface of the sidewall of the groove, and the top end of the lower coupler is located inside the groove.

[0035] With the above settings, when the stirring cup assembly is assembled on the base, the groove can first limit the position, which facilitates the docking of the upper coupler and the lower coupler. The second protrusion then plays a positioning role, which makes it easier to assemble the stirring cup assembly on the base.

[0036] Optionally, the food processor includes a lid and a control assembly. The lid is assembled to the support base and covers the mixing cup assembly. The control assembly is located on the lid or the support base.

[0037] In this way, the food processor takes up less space and is easier for users to operate.

[0038] Optionally, the mixing cup assembly includes a mixing cup, a motor, and a blade assembly. The motor is located at the bottom of the mixing cup and includes an output shaft. The blade assembly is located at the top of the output shaft.

[0039] In this way, the motor's output shaft is directly connected to the blade assembly, which reduces the height of the food processor. Attached Figure Description

Furthermore, the terms "first" and "second" used in the embodiments of this application are only for descriptive convenience and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0057] 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 110 and a blending cup assembly 120. In some embodiments, the food processor 100 may also include a lid 130 and a control assembly 140.

[0058] The base 110 includes a base 111 and a support 112 extending upward from the base 111. The support 112 and the base 111 can be integrally formed or formed separately and then assembled together. The top view of the base 110 can be circular, rectangular (with rounded corners), square (with rounded corners), polygonal (with rounded corners), elliptical, etc. The top view of the mixing cup assembly 120 can be the same as or different from the shape of the base 110.

[0059] Please see Figures 3 to 6 The mixing cup assembly 120 is detachably assembled to the base 111. The mixing cup assembly 120 includes a mixing cup 121, a heating plate 128 disposed at the bottom of the mixing cup 121, and a blade assembly 122 disposed within the mixing cup 121. In other embodiments, the mixing cup assembly 120 includes a mixing cup 121, a base disposed at the bottom of the mixing cup 121, and a blade assembly 122. The heating element can be disposed on the base 111, and heat is conducted from the heating element to the base, thereby heating the food inside the mixing cup 121. The mixing cup 121 is used to hold food, the heating plate 128 is used to heat the food inside the mixing cup 121, and the blade assembly 122 is used to mix and pulverize the food inside the mixing cup 121.

[0060] The stirring cup 121 includes a cup body 1291 and a handle 1293. The cup body 1291 has a spout 1292, which is positioned opposite to the handle 1293. The support base 112 has a mating groove 1121 corresponding to the spout 1292, and the spout 1292 is located within the mating groove 1121. The cross-section of the cup body 1291 can be approximately square, allowing the stirring cup 1219 to be made shorter while maintaining the same volume. The stirring cup 121 may have baffles 214 at its four corners, or these baffles may be omitted. In other embodiments, the cross-section of the cup body 1291 may also be circular or other shapes.

[0061] The lid 130 is assembled to the support base 112 and covers the mixing cup assembly 120. The lid 130 is movably connected to the support base 112. When the lid 130 is positioned on top of the support base 112, adjusting the position of the lid 130 facilitates the assembly of the mixing cup assembly 120 onto the base 111. Figure 1 and Figure 2 In the illustrated embodiment, the cover 130 is rotatably assembled to the support base 112. In another embodiment, the cover 130 is rotatably assembled to the support base 112 in a horizontal direction. In another embodiment, the cover 130 is detachably assembled to the support base 112. In yet another embodiment, the cover 130 is vertically connected to the support base 112.

[0062] Please see Figure 6The control component 140 is located on the cover 130 or the support base 112, and is used to display information such as function and time, and for user operation, such as selecting a cooking function, starting / pausing the cooking process, etc. In related technologies, the base protrudes horizontally from the blending cup assembly, and the control component is located on the upper surface of the protruding part. Compared with related technologies, in this application, the control component 140 is located on the cover 130 or the support base 112, and the food processor 100 occupies less space in the horizontal direction overall.

[0063] exist Figure 6 In this embodiment, the control component 140 is located on the cover 130, which facilitates user operation, eliminates the need for bending over, and is closer to the user's eyes, making it easier for the user to see the information on the control component 140. A power supply component 13 is housed within the support base 112, and the control component 140 is electrically connected to the power supply component 13. The power supply component 13 is used to connect to an external power source to power the food processor and can also power the control component 140. The motor 127 is located within the base 111 or at the bottom of the mixing cup 121. Figure 6 In the illustrated embodiment, the motor 127 is disposed at the bottom of the mixing cup 121. The motor 127 includes an output shaft 1271, and the blade assembly 122 is disposed at the top of the output shaft 1271. The output shaft 1271 of the motor 127 is directly connected to the blade assembly 122, which can reduce the height of the food processor 100. In one embodiment, the motor 127 is a brushless motor without a rear end cover, so the motor 127 has a lower height, which helps to reduce the overall height of the food processor 100. In other embodiments, the motor 127 may also be a conventional brushed motor or a brushless motor.

[0064] Since the power supply component 13 is located inside the support base 112 and the control component 140 is located inside the cover 130, the power supply component 13, the control component 140 and the motor 127 are not stacked together. By reasonably arranging the positions of the three components, the height of the food processor 100 can be effectively reduced, so that the overall height of the food processor 100 is no more than 280 mm, making it more compact and exquisite. In this way, the vibration generated by the food processor 100 during operation can be reduced, and it occupies less space.

[0065] In another embodiment, both the power supply component 13 and the control component 140 are disposed within the cover 130. The power supply component 13 and the control component 140 can be integrated or disposed separately. The motor 127 is disposed within the base 111 or at the bottom of the mixing cup 121, which also reduces the height of the food processor 100. In another embodiment, both the power supply component 13 and the control component 140 are disposed within the support base 112. The power supply component 13 and the control component 140 can be integrated or disposed separately, and the motor 127 is disposed within the base 111 or at the bottom of the mixing cup 121. In yet another embodiment, the power supply component 13 is disposed within the base 111, the control component 140 is disposed within the support base 112, and the motor 127 is disposed within the base 111 or at the bottom of the mixing cup 121. In yet another embodiment, both the power supply component 13 and the control component 140 are disposed within the cover 130, and the motor 127 is disposed within the lid of the mixing cup assembly 120. In another embodiment, the power supply assembly 13 is disposed within the support base 112, the control assembly 140 is disposed within the cover 130, and the motor 127 is disposed within the lid of the mixing cup assembly 120.

[0066] Figures 7 to 12 This is a schematic diagram of another embodiment of the food processor of this application. Figures 1 to 6 Implementation examples and Figures 8 to 12 In this embodiment, the base 111 has a downwardly recessed groove 113. The stirring cup assembly 120 is detachably assembled to the base 111. When the stirring cup assembly 120 is assembled to the base 111, the bottom of the stirring cup assembly 120 is located within the groove 113. When the stirring cup assembly 120 is placed on the base 111, the bottom of the stirring cup assembly 120 is located within the groove 113, and there can be a small gap between the bottom of the stirring cup assembly 120 and the inner side of the groove 113. The cross-sectional shape of the bottom of the stirring cup assembly 120 can be approximately the same as the cross-sectional shape of the groove 113. In the illustrated embodiment, it can be square, while in other embodiments it can be circular, polygonal, etc.

[0067] The groove 113 limits the movement of the mixing cup assembly 120 relative to the base 111, restricting its movement. This prevents the mixing cup assembly 120 from moving significantly or with respect to the base 111, reducing its offset and ensuring its position relative to the base 110 is within a specified range. This guarantees a reliable and stable assembly, allowing the spout 1292 to be positioned within the mating groove 1121 of the support base 1121. The groove 113 also facilitates placement of the mixing cup assembly on the base. Furthermore, the groove 113 reduces horizontal and vertical displacement of the mixing cup assembly 111.

[0068] Please see Figures 7 to 12The stirring cup 121 includes a main body 1211 and a mating part 1214, with the mating part 1214 protruding from the bottom of the main body 1211. The main body 1211 includes an outer side surface 1212 and a mating surface 1213. The mating surface 1213 extends inward from the lower edge of the outer side surface 1212 to the mating part 1214, and the mating part 1214 extends downward beyond the mating surface 1213. When the stirring cup assembly 120 is assembled on the base 111, the mating part 1214 is received in the groove 113, and the upper surface of the sidewall of the groove 113 supports the mating surface 1213.

[0069] With the above arrangement, a stepped structure is formed between the main body 1211 and the mating part 1214. When the mating part 1214 is received in the groove 113, the upper surface of the side wall of the groove 113 supports the mating surface 1213, which can position the stirring cup assembly 120 in the vertical direction, ensuring that the stirring cup assembly 120 is installed in place, and reducing the displacement of the stirring cup assembly 120 relative to the base 111. This is beneficial to the stability of the stirring cup assembly 120 when it is set on the base 111 and the stability of the assembly state.

[0070] In an optional embodiment, see Figure 8 As shown, the mating part 1214 includes a fixing part 1215 and a positioning part 1216. The fixing part 1215 is inserted into the bottom of the main body 1211, and the positioning part 1216 extends downward from the fixing part 1215 and protrudes from the bottom of the main body 1211. When the stirring cup assembly 120 is assembled on the base 111, the positioning part 1216 is received in the groove 113. In the illustrated embodiment, the inner side of the bottom of the main body 1211 extends vertically, the fixing part 1215 extends vertically, and the outer side of the fixing part 1215 fits against the inner side of the bottom of the main body 1211, allowing for an interference fit. In some embodiments, the positioning part 1216 and the fixing part 1215 can be integrally formed.

[0071] The fixing part 1215 is inserted into the bottom of the main body 1211, and the positioning part 1216 protrudes downward from the bottom of the main body 1211, thereby facilitating the fixed installation of the mating part 1214 and the main body 1211, and also facilitating the realization of the stepped structure between the main body 1211 and the mating part 1214. The mating part 1214 is fixed to the main body 1211 by the fixing part 1215 being inserted into the bottom of the main body 1211, thereby facilitating the assembly of the stirring cup assembly 120. The outer surface 1212 of the main body 1211 and the positioning part 1216 form a thickness difference through the wall thickness of the main body 1211, thereby facilitating the realization of the stepped structure between the main body 1211 and the mating part 1214, resulting in a mating surface 1213, which facilitates the structural design of the stirring cup assembly 120 and simplifies the manufacturing process.

[0072] In an optional embodiment, the positioning part 1216 includes a positioning sidewall 1217 and a positioning bottom wall 1218. The positioning sidewall 1217 extends from the fixing part 1215 out of the main body 1211 and gradually extends inward from top to bottom, and the positioning bottom wall 1218 is connected to the positioning sidewall 1217.

[0073] The positioning sidewall 1217 extends gradually inward from top to bottom. During the insertion of the positioning part 1216 into the groove 113, the positioning sidewall 1217 acts as a guide, making it easier for the positioning part 1216 to fit into the groove 113. When the positioning part 1216 is fully inserted into the groove 113, the larger lateral dimension of the top of the positioning part 1216 allows it to be more effectively confined within the groove 113, reducing offset. The smaller lateral dimension of the bottom of the positioning sidewall 1217 compared to the top makes it easier for the bottom of the positioning part 1216 to fit into the groove 113 when it is inserted from top to bottom.

[0074] In an optional embodiment, see Figures 9 to 11 As shown, the bottom surface of the groove 113 is provided with a downwardly recessed first recess 1131, and the bottom of the stirring cup assembly 120 is provided with a first protrusion 123 that mates with the first recess 1131. The first protrusion 123 is inserted into the first recess 1131.

[0075] When the stirring cup assembly 120 is assembled on the base 111, the first protrusion 123 and the first recess 1131 cooperate to facilitate the positioning of the stirring cup assembly 120 by the groove 113, reducing the displacement of the stirring cup assembly 120 relative to the base 111 when it is assembled on the base 111, which is beneficial to the stability of the stirring cup assembly 120 when it is set on the base 111 and the stability of the assembly state.

[0076] In an optional embodiment, a shock-absorbing pad 124 is provided at the bottom of the first protrusion 123. The shock-absorbing pad 124 can be attached to the bottom surface of the first protrusion 123. The first protrusion 123 cooperates with the first recess 1131 through the shock-absorbing pad 124. When the blending cup assembly 120 is used to crush and blend food, the vibration amplitude of the blending cup assembly 120 relative to the base 111 is reduced, thereby reducing the noise generated by the collision between the blending cup assembly 120 and the base 111 during the use of the food processor 100, and improving the user experience of the food processor 100.

[0077] In an optional embodiment, see Figures 9 to 12 As shown, the base 111 is provided with a lower coupler 114, and the bottom of the stirring cup assembly 120 is provided with an upper coupler 125. The lower coupler 114 and the upper coupler 125 are connected. The lower coupler 114 is provided with a first recess 1131 on both sides, and the upper coupler 125 is provided with a first protrusion 123 on both sides.

[0078] By setting multiple first protrusions 123 and first recesses 1131, the positioning effect between the base 111 and the stirring cup assembly 120 is improved, thereby ensuring the connection between the lower coupler 114 and the upper coupler 125, reducing the displacement of the stirring cup assembly 120 relative to the base 111 when it is assembled on the base 111, and improving the stability of the stirring cup assembly 120 when it is set on the base 111 and the stability of the assembly state.

[0079] Optionally, the lower coupler 114 includes a high-voltage lower coupler 1141 and a low-voltage lower coupler 1142. The upper coupler 125 includes a high-voltage upper coupler 1251 and a low-voltage upper coupler 1252. The high-voltage lower coupler 1141 is connected to the high-voltage upper coupler 1251, and the low-voltage lower coupler 1142 is connected to the low-voltage upper coupler 1252. In some other embodiments, the lower coupler 114 and the upper coupler 125 are each a single unit, capable of carrying high-voltage and low-voltage electricity respectively.

[0080] In some embodiments, the high-voltage lower coupler 1141 has first recesses 1131 on both sides, and the high-voltage upper coupler 1251 has first protrusions 123 on both sides. A pair of first recesses 1131 may be provided on both sides of the high-voltage lower coupler 1141, and the high-voltage lower coupler 1141 and the pair of first recesses 113 are arranged circumferentially along the groove 113. In some embodiments, the low-voltage lower coupler 1142 has first recesses 1131 on both sides, and the low-voltage upper coupler 1252 has first protrusions 123 on both sides. A pair of first recesses 1131 may be provided on both sides of the low-voltage lower coupler 1142. The low-voltage lower coupler 1142 and the pair of first recesses 113 are arranged circumferentially along the groove 113.

[0081] In some other embodiments, the high-voltage lower coupler 1141 has a first recess 1131 on each side, and the high-voltage upper coupler 1251 has a first protrusion 123 on each side. In other embodiments, the low-voltage lower coupler 1142 has a first recess 1131 on each side, and the low-voltage upper coupler 1252 has a first protrusion 123 on each side.

[0082] By setting multiple first protrusions 123 and first recesses 1131, the positioning effect between the base 111 and the stirring cup assembly 120 is improved, thereby ensuring the connection between the high-voltage lower coupler 1141 and the high-voltage upper coupler 1251, and between the high-voltage lower coupler 1141 and the low-voltage upper coupler 1252. This reduces the displacement of the stirring cup assembly 120 relative to the base 111 when it is assembled on the base 111, which is beneficial to the stability of the stirring cup assembly 120 when it is set on the base 111 and the stability of the assembly state.

[0083] In an optional embodiment, a second protrusion 1132 protrudes from the bottom surface of the groove 113. The second protrusion 1132 is circumferentially arranged along the lower coupler 114, and the lower coupler 114 protrudes upward from the upper surface of the second protrusion 1132. The bottom of the stirring cup assembly 120 is recessed with a second recess 126 that mates with the second protrusion 1132, and the upper coupler 125 is disposed in the second recess 126. This allows for better positioning and engagement, reducing the displacement of the stirring cup assembly 120 relative to the base 111 when assembled, and improving the stability of the stirring cup assembly 120 when placed on the base 111. The lower coupler 114 extends vertically through the second protrusion 1132, extends upward beyond the second protrusion 1132, and extends downward below the second protrusion 1132.

[0084] In some embodiments, the second protrusion 1132 is circumferentially disposed along the high-voltage lower coupler 1141, and the high-voltage upper coupler 1251 is disposed in the second recess 126. The second protrusion 1132 is circumferentially disposed along the low-voltage lower coupler 1142, and the low-voltage upper coupler 1252 is disposed in the second recess 126. In other embodiments, the second protrusion 1132 is circumferentially disposed along the high-voltage lower coupler 1141, and the high-voltage upper coupler 1251 is disposed in the second recess 126. In still other embodiments, the second protrusion 1132 is circumferentially disposed along the low-voltage lower coupler 1142, and the low-voltage upper coupler 1252 is disposed in the second recess 126. This improves the positioning effect between the base 111 and the stirring cup assembly 120, thereby ensuring the connection between the high-voltage lower coupler 1141 and the high-voltage upper coupler 1251, and between the high-voltage lower coupler 1141 and the low-voltage upper coupler 1252. It also reduces the displacement of the stirring cup assembly 120 relative to the base 111 when it is assembled on the base 111, which is beneficial to the stability of the stirring cup assembly 120 when it is set on the base 111 and the stability of the assembly state.

[0085] exist Figure 9 In the illustrated embodiment, the upper surface of the second protrusion 1132 is flush with the upper surface of the sidewall of the groove 113. This facilitates the fabrication of the second protrusion 1132 and the groove 113, simplifying the base fabrication process. Furthermore, since the lower coupler 114 extends upward beyond the upper surface of the sidewall of the groove 113, with its top end located outside the groove 113, when the stirring cup assembly is assembled onto the base, the lower coupler 114 first enters the second recess 126, providing a certain degree of restraint, and then engages with the upper coupler 115.

[0086] In another embodiment, such as Figure 2As shown, the upper surface of the second protrusion 1132 is lower than the upper surface of the sidewall of the groove 113, and the top end of the lower coupler 114 is located within the groove 113. The portions of the second protrusion 1132 and the lower coupler 114 extending beyond the second protrusion 1132 are both within the groove 113. With this configuration, when the stirring cup assembly 121 is assembled onto the base 111, the groove 113 can first provide a limiting position, facilitating the docking of the upper coupler 125 and the lower coupler 114. The second protrusion 1132 then serves a positioning function, thus facilitating the assembly of the stirring cup assembly 120 onto the base 111. Furthermore, the top end of the lower coupler 114 being located within the groove 113 reduces the risk of damage from impacts to the lower coupler 114, protecting it. The top surface of the lower coupler 114 can be flush with or lower than the upper surface of the sidewall of the groove 113.

[0087] In the illustrated embodiment, the blade assembly 122 is disposed at the top end of the output shaft 1271 of the motor 127. The output shaft 1271 of the motor 127 extends into the mixing cup 121 and is directly connected to the blade assembly 122, directly driving the blade assembly 122. This allows the base 111 to be relatively thin, and neither the base 111 nor the mixing cup assembly 120 requires a clutch. Limiting and positioning can be achieved through the cooperation of the groove 113, the first recess, the second protrusion 1132, and the lower coupler 114 on the base, as well as the structure at the bottom of the mixing cup assembly 121.
