Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of kitchen appliance technology, specifically relating to a food processing machine. Background Technology
[0002] To address the issue of water accumulation in the sockets of food processors, the applicant previously filed patent CN201617140U, which discloses a safe soymilk maker. This design incorporates a drainage channel in the socket, allowing water to drain automatically from the socket's interior, preventing short circuits between the pins and ensuring safe use. The applicant has also applied for another soymilk maker with a socket installed on the side wall of the outer casing. A drainage hole is located at the bottom of the socket, which is positioned above a volute. The volute has a water collection chamber with an opening at its upper end, the opening of which corresponds to the area below the drainage hole, preventing water from entering the socket and causing a short circuit.
[0003] During the research process, the applicant discovered that the top opening of the water collection chamber can receive the water flow from the socket and guide it through the volute to be discharged from the outer casing. However, if the water outlet of the water collection chamber or the drain of the outer casing becomes blocked, or if the user does not follow the operating instructions to rinse the soymilk maker with the socket facing the water flow, causing a large amount of water to rush into the socket, a large amount of water will accumulate in the water collection chamber. Since the volume of the water collection chamber is limited, if the user cannot shake out the accumulated water, the water in the water collection chamber will overflow from the opening into the inner cavity of the outer casing, which may cause damage to components such as the motor inside the outer casing. Utility Model Content
[0004] This utility model provides a food processing machine that, in addition to preventing short circuits caused by water accumulation in the socket, further solves the problem that, although the existing housing has a water collection chamber, water overflows into the inner cavity of the housing when there is blockage or a large amount of water entering, causing damage to the internal components of the housing.
[0005] The technical solution adopted in this utility model is as follows:
[0006] This utility model provides a food processing machine, including a cup body with a built-in crushing device, an outer shell, and a socket mounted on the side wall of the outer shell. An installation cavity is provided between the outer shell and the cup body. A motor located below the cup body is provided in the installation cavity. The motor is electrically connected to the socket and drives the crushing device to rotate. A drainage hole is provided at the bottom of the socket. A water collection tank is also provided in the installation cavity located below the socket. The opening of the water collection tank faces the socket to communicate with the drainage hole. An outlet is also provided at the bottom of the water collection tank to drain the water accumulated in the water collection tank to the outside. A sealing member is provided between the water collection tank and the socket. The sealing member is pressed by the socket to seal the opening of the water collection tank.
[0007] By creating a drainage hole at the bottom of the socket, water can drain out when it gets inside during the washing of a food processor, preventing water accumulation and potential safety hazards when the plug is inserted. A water collection trough located below the socket, with its opening facing the socket to connect to the drainage hole, and an outlet at the bottom to drain water, effectively buffers and collects leaking water, preventing damage to the motor and other electrical components caused by uncontrolled water flow within the casing. This protects the internal structure and extends the lifespan of the socket. Furthermore, a sealing element between the water collection trough and the socket, held in place by the socket, seals the opening of the water collection trough. This improves the sealing between the trough and the drain hole, preventing excessive water accumulation and overflow, thus protecting the internal components and extending their lifespan.
[0008] In a preferred embodiment, the sealing element is a sealing plate covering the groove, and the sealing plate has a connecting hole corresponding to the leakage hole. More preferably, the bottom of the socket has a sealing ring rib protruding around the leakage hole, and the sealing ring rib presses against the edge of the connecting hole of the sealing element.
[0009] By designing the sealing element as a sealing plate, the sealing plate can completely cover the slot, thereby reducing the size requirements of the socket. The socket does not need to cover the entire slot, facilitating the reduction of the socket's size, achieving component miniaturization, saving installation space, and ultimately realizing overall machine miniaturization. By protruding a sealing ring around the drain hole at the bottom of the socket, water flowing from the drain hole is prevented from splashing. Furthermore, the sealing ring can press against the edge of the connecting hole of the sealing element, further pressurizing and sealing the area near the connecting hole, improving the sealing effect between the drain hole and the water collection tank.
[0010] In a preferred embodiment, the sealing element is a sealing ring extending circumferentially along the opening of the water collection tank, and the socket covers the opening of the water collection tank and clamps the sealing ring with the water collection tank.
[0011] By designing the seal as a sealing ring extending circumferentially along the opening of the water collection tank, the structure is simple. Furthermore, the hollow portion of the sealing ring is entirely connected to the drain hole, thereby accelerating the drainage efficiency of water accumulated in the socket. This allows water entering the socket to quickly drain from the drain hole into the water collection tank, further protecting the socket. Simultaneously, the socket covers the opening of the water collection tank and clamps the sealing ring with the tank, achieving a reliable sealing connection.
[0012] In a preferred embodiment, a mounting bracket is further provided inside the mounting cavity, the water collection tank is disposed on the mounting bracket, and the outer shell has a drain outlet corresponding to the water outlet.
[0013] By setting a mounting bracket inside the mounting cavity, space is provided for the water collection tank. The water collection tank is set on the mounting bracket, which facilitates processing and forming. A drain outlet corresponding to the water outlet is opened on the outer shell, thereby leading the water from the water collection tank out of the outer shell.
[0014] In a preferred embodiment, the mounting bracket is a motor bracket for fixing the motor, the motor bracket has a first extension extending outward to below the socket, and the water collection tank is disposed on the first extension.
[0015] In a preferred embodiment, the mounting bracket is a power board bracket, on which a power board connected to the motor is mounted. The power board bracket has a second extension extending to below the socket, and the water collection tank is disposed on the second extension.
[0016] By using motor brackets or power board brackets as mounting brackets, the motor or power board can be fixedly installed using the same brackets. This achieves structural integration, simplifies unnecessary parts, simplifies the overall structure, increases space utilization, and enables miniaturization of the entire machine.
[0017] In a preferred embodiment, the mounting cavity is further provided with a fan and a volute located below the motor, the mounting bracket is the volute, the volute includes an extension channel extending toward the drain outlet and located below the socket, and the water collection tank is disposed at the upper end of the extension channel.
[0018] The installation cavity also includes a fan and a volute located below the motor, which facilitates heat dissipation for the motor. The mounting bracket is the volute, achieving structural integration and simplifying the overall structure. The volute includes an extension channel extending towards the drain outlet and located below the socket. The water collection tank is located at the upper end of the extension channel. Therefore, the extension channel can guide the directional and rapid discharge of heat dissipation airflow and also provide installation space for the water collection tank, achieving a compact arrangement of the structure and further realizing the compactness of the overall structure.
[0019] In a preferred embodiment, the outer casing includes a cylindrical body and a base fixed to the bottom of the cylindrical body. The base is provided with a surrounding rib extending from bottom to top. The surrounding rib and the base enclose the water collection trough. The water outlet is opened on the base. The surrounding rib and the socket clamp the sealing element.
[0020] More preferably, the top of the cup body is provided with a flange, and the cylindrical body extends upward to surround the cup body, and the cylindrical body is clamped and fixed by the flange and the base.
[0021] By designing the outer casing as a cylindrical body and a base fixed to the bottom of the cylindrical body, the open bottom of the cylindrical body avoids the installation of motors, power boards, etc., simplifying assembly, saving effort, and improving assembly efficiency. By incorporating reinforcing ribs on the base, with the water outlet located on the base, and using the ribs and base to form a water collection trough, no additional support is needed to create the trough. This simple structure, coupled with the water outlet being located on the base, allows for more direct and efficient drainage of accumulated water, reducing the probability of water damage to internal components and extending service life.
[0022] In a preferred embodiment, the seal is provided with a slot extending circumferentially along the water collection tank, the sidewall of the water collection tank being interference-fitted into the slot.
[0023] By incorporating a slot extending circumferentially along the water collection tank on the seal, the sidewall of the water collection tank is interference-fitted into the slot, achieving a sealing fit. This extends the fit gap, thereby lengthening the overflow path and protecting the components inside the housing. Furthermore, the insertion fit between the seal's slot and the sidewall of the water collection tank also ensures reliable positioning between the seal and the water collection tank, preventing seal displacement and achieving a reliable sealing effect.
[0024] In a preferred embodiment, a step is provided at the opening of the water collection tank, the sealing element is sleeved on the step, and the socket is provided with a pressing rib for pressing the sealing element.
[0025] By setting a step at the opening of the water collection tank, the sealing element is fitted onto the step. The retaining ribs of the socket and the step are used to clamp and limit the sealing element, which is reliable and prevents the sealing element from shifting, thus achieving a reliable sealing effect.

[0040] like Figure 1-6 As shown, in one embodiment of the present invention, a food processing machine is provided, including a cup body 10 with a built-in crushing device 11, a shell 20, and a socket 30 installed on the side wall of the shell 20. An installation cavity is provided between the shell 20 and the cup body 10. A motor 12 located below the cup body 10 is provided in the installation cavity. The motor 12 is electrically connected to the socket 30 and drives the crushing device 11 to rotate. A drain hole 301 is provided at the bottom of the socket 30. A water collection tank 40 located below the socket 30 is also provided in the installation cavity. The opening 41 of the water collection tank 40 faces the socket 30 to connect with the drain hole 301. An outlet 42 is also provided at the bottom of the water collection tank 40 to drain the water in the water collection tank 40 to the outside. A sealing member 50 is provided between the water collection tank 40 and the socket 30. The sealing member 50 is pressed by the socket 30 to seal the opening 41 of the water collection tank 40.
[0041] The food processor provided by this utility model can be a soymilk maker that can heat and make hot drinks or a juicer that can make cold drinks. By providing a drain hole 301 at the bottom of the socket 30, water can drain out of the socket 30 when it gets inside during rinsing, preventing water accumulation and potential safety hazards when the plug is inserted. A water collection tank 40 located below the socket 30, with its opening 41 facing the socket 30 to connect to the drain hole 301, and a drain outlet 42 at the bottom to drain accumulated water, effectively buffers and collects water leaking from the socket 30, preventing water from flowing freely within the outer casing 20 and damaging electrical components such as the motor 12. This protects the internal structure of the outer casing 20 and extends its service life. Furthermore, by providing a sealing element 50 between the water collection tank 40 and the socket 30, and by pressing the sealing element 50 against the socket 30 to seal the opening 41 of the water collection tank 40, the sealing connection effect between the water collection tank 40 and the water leakage hole 301 of the socket 30 is improved, and the opening 41 of the water collection tank 40 is sealed to prevent excessive water accumulation in the water collection tank 40 from overflowing, thereby preventing the overflowing water from damaging electrical components such as the motor 12 inside the housing 20.
[0042] This utility model does not limit the specific structure of the sealing element, for example, such as Figure 1-6 As shown, in a preferred embodiment, specifically combined with Figure 5 The sealing element 50 is a sealing plate that is mounted on top of the groove 41, and a connecting hole 51 corresponding to the water leakage hole 301 is provided on the sealing plate. More preferably, the bottom of the socket 30 is provided with a sealing ring rib that surrounds the water leakage hole 301, and the sealing ring rib is pressed against the edge of the connecting hole 51 of the sealing element 50.
[0043] By setting the sealing element 50 as a sealing plate, the sealing plate can be fully covered above the slot 41, thereby reducing the size requirements of the socket 30. The socket 30 does not need to cover the entire slot 41, which facilitates the reduction of the size of the socket 30, realizes the miniaturization of parts, saves installation space, and achieves the miniaturization of the whole machine. By protruding a sealing ring rib around the drain hole 301 at the bottom of the socket 30, on the one hand, it prevents the water flowing out of the drain hole 301 from splashing, and on the other hand, it can use the sealing ring rib to press against the edge of the connecting hole 51 of the sealing element 50, thereby further pressurizing and sealing the vicinity of the connecting hole 51, improving the sealing effect between the drain hole 301 of the socket 30 and the water collection tank 40.
[0044] Of course, in another preferred embodiment of the present invention, the sealing member 50 is a sealing ring extending circumferentially along the groove 41 of the water collection tank 40, and the socket 30 covers the groove 41 of the water collection tank 40 and clamps the sealing ring with the water collection tank 40.
[0045] By setting the sealing element 50 as a sealing ring extending circumferentially along the groove 41 of the water collection tank 40, the structure is simple. Simultaneously, the hollow portion of the sealing ring is fully connected to the drain hole 301, thereby accelerating the drainage efficiency of water accumulated in the socket 30. This allows water entering the socket 30 to quickly drain from the drain hole 301 into the water collection tank 40, further protecting the socket 30. At the same time, by utilizing the socket 30 to cover the groove 41 of the water collection tank 40 and clamp the sealing ring with the water collection tank 40, a reliable sealing connection is achieved.
[0046] Furthermore, this utility model does not limit the arrangement of the water collection tank, which can be selected as follows:
[0047] Implementation Example 1, such as Figure 1-6 As shown, an installation bracket 60 is also provided inside the installation cavity, a water collection tank 40 is installed on the installation bracket 60, and a drain outlet 23 corresponding to the water outlet 42 is opened on the outer shell 20.
[0048] More specifically, in this implementation example, such as Figure 4 , 5 As shown, the mounting cavity also includes a fan 70 located below the motor 12 and a volute 61. The mounting bracket 60 is the volute 61, which includes an extension channel extending towards the drain outlet 23 and located below the socket 30. A water collection tank 40 is disposed at the upper end of the extension channel. Preferably, the drain outlet also serves as the air duct outlet of the extension channel.
[0049] By setting a mounting bracket 60 inside the mounting cavity, space is provided for the water collection tank 40. The water collection tank 40 is set on the mounting bracket 60, which is convenient for processing and forming. A drain outlet 23 corresponding to the water outlet 42 is opened on the outer shell 20, so that the water in the water collection tank 40 is led out of the outer shell 20.
[0050] The installation cavity also includes a fan 70 and a volute 61 located below the motor 12, which facilitates heat dissipation for the motor 12. The mounting bracket 60 is the volute 61, which integrates the structure and simplifies the overall structure. The volute 61 includes an extension channel that extends towards the drain outlet 23 and is located below the socket 30. The water collection tank 40 is located at the upper end of the extension channel. Therefore, the extension channel can guide the directional and rapid discharge of heat dissipation airflow and also provide installation space for the water collection tank 40, achieving a compact arrangement of the structure and further realizing the compactness of the overall structure.
[0051] It is understandable that, due to the difficulty in precisely matching the actual socket size and the water collection tank size, reference is needed. Figure 5 As shown, an auxiliary support rib 62 is also provided on the mounting bracket 60 to provide support for the part of the socket that protrudes radially from the water collection tank. Therefore, the auxiliary support rib 62 and the water collection tank 40 together provide stable support for the socket and improve the socket's positioning durability.
[0052] In Implementation Example 2, unlike Implementation Example 1, the mounting bracket 60 is a motor bracket for fixing the motor 12. The motor bracket has a first extension extending outward to below the socket 30, and the water collection tank 40 is disposed on the first extension.
[0053] In Implementation Example 3, unlike Implementation Example 1, the mounting bracket 60 is a power board bracket, on which a power board 13 connected to the motor 12 is mounted. The power board bracket has a second extension extending to below the socket 30, and a water collection tank 40 is disposed on the second extension.
[0054] By using a motor bracket or a power board bracket as a mounting bracket 60, the mounting bracket 60 can be reused to fix the motor 12 or the power board 13, thereby achieving structural integration, simplifying unnecessary parts, simplifying the overall structure, maximizing space utilization, and achieving miniaturization of the entire machine.
[0055] Preferably, in this embodiment, the power board 13 is placed horizontally below the motor 12, and the power board bracket has a second extension on the side near the socket. Of course, the power board 13 can also be arranged vertically to the side of the motor 12, with the power board bracket also arranged vertically, and the second extension extending towards the socket.
[0056] Implementation Example 4 differs from Implementation Example 1 in that the water collection tank is directly installed on the outer shell. Specifically, the outer shell 20 includes a cylindrical body 21 and a base 22 fixed to the bottom of the cylindrical body 21. The base 22 is provided with a surrounding rib extending from bottom to top. The surrounding rib and the base 22 enclose to form a water collection tank 40. The water outlet 42 is opened on the base 22. The surrounding rib and the socket 30 clamp the sealing member 50.
[0057] More preferably, the top of the cup body 10 is provided with a flange, and the cylindrical body 21 extends upward to surround the cup body 10. The cylindrical body 21 is clamped and fixed by the flange and the base 22. Optionally, the cylindrical body can be clamped by fixing the base 22 to the bottom of the cup body with screws or other means. Of course, while the cylindrical body is clamped, the base and the bottom end of the cylindrical body abut against each other, and the socket and water collection tank clamp the seal.
[0058] By configuring the outer casing 20 to include a cylindrical body 21 and a base 22 fixed to the bottom of the cylindrical body 21, the open bottom of the cylindrical body 21 can avoid the installation of the motor 12, power board 13, etc., making assembly simpler and less labor-intensive, and improving assembly efficiency. By setting ribs on the base 22, the water outlet 42 is opened on the base 22, and the ribs and base 22 are used to form a water collection tank 40. There is no need to set an additional support to form the water collection tank 40, the structure is simple, and the water outlet 42 is located on the base 22, so the water in the water collection tank 40 is discharged more directly and efficiently, reducing the probability of water damage to the components inside the outer casing 20 and extending the service life.
[0059] In addition, to enhance the limiting fit between the sealing element and the water collection tank, in a preferred embodiment, the sealing element 50 is provided with a slot extending circumferentially along the water collection tank 40, and the side wall of the water collection tank 40 is interference-fitted into the slot. In another preferred embodiment, a step is provided at the opening 41 of the water collection tank 40, the sealing element 50 is sleeved on the step, and the socket 30 is provided with a pressing rib to hold the sealing element 50.
[0060] By providing a slot on the seal 50 that extends circumferentially along the water collection tank 40, the side wall of the water collection tank 40 is interference-fitted into the slot, achieving a sealing fit. This extends the fit gap and thus the overflow path, protecting the components inside the housing 20. Furthermore, the insertion fit between the slot of the seal 50 and the side wall of the water collection tank 40 also ensures reliable positioning between the seal 50 and the water collection tank 40, preventing displacement of the seal 50 and achieving a reliable sealing effect.
[0061] By setting a step at the opening 41 of the water collection tank 40, the sealing element 50 is sleeved on the step. The clamping rib of the socket 30 and the step are used to clamp and limit the sealing element 50. Of course, the sealing element can also be flush with the opening of the water collection tank, and the bottom surface of the socket can be used to press the sealing element. The sealing element is fixed reliably, preventing the sealing element 50 from shifting and achieving a reliable sealing effect.
