Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of household appliance technology, and in particular to a food processor cup. Background Technology

[0002] Food processors (including blenders, juicers, baby food processors, etc.) are small appliances commonly used in modern kitchens and are widely popular due to their ease of operation and diverse functions (such as blending, grinding, mixing, juicing, etc.).

[0003] Currently, the motor and control circuitry of most blending cups are typically fixed to the bottom of the lid or body. When cleaning the inside of the cup or the blending blades, users often need to carefully rinse the entire lid assembly or avoid water contact with the motor and control components, which is cumbersome and carries the risk of water damage. The integrated design makes thorough cleaning difficult, especially since food residue can easily get stuck at the seams between the blade assembly and the cup body or lid.

[0004] In addition, mainstream products typically integrate the rechargeable battery into the main unit in a non-removable manner. This makes the battery a bottleneck in the overall lifespan of the machine. Once the battery ages, degrades, or malfunctions, it will affect the normal use of the food processor. Moreover, when using it on the go, it will be unable to operate if the battery is dead. Utility Model Content

[0005] Therefore, it is necessary to provide a new type of cooking cup to address the aforementioned problems with existing cooking cups.

[0006] This application provides a cooking cup, including:

It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described in these embodiments can be combined with each other.

[0044] Many specific details are set forth in the following description in order to provide a full understanding of the invention. However, the invention may also be practiced in other ways different from those described herein, and therefore the scope of protection of the invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.

[0045] The following describes some embodiments of the food processor cup of the present invention with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0046] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, this embodiment discloses a cooking cup, including:

[0047] Cup body 10;

[0048] The cup lid assembly 20 includes a top cover 21 and a connecting seat 22. A first cavity 201 is provided in the connecting seat 22. The connecting seat 22 is detachably connected to the cup body 10 and the top cover 21.

[0049] The stirring assembly includes a drive motor 31 and a stirring blade assembly. The drive motor 31 is installed in the first cavity 201, and the output end of the drive motor 31 extends into the cup body 10 and is connected to the stirring blade assembly for transmission.

[0050] The control circuit board 40 is installed in the first cavity 201 and electrically connected to the drive motor 31. The control circuit board 40 is provided with a power supply female connector 410.

[0051] The battery module 50 is installed in the second cavity 202 formed by the top cover 21 and the connecting seat 22. The battery module 50 is provided with a power supply male connector 530, which can be plugged into and unplugged from the power supply female connector 410.

[0052] The food processor of this application has a drive motor 31 installed inside a first cavity 201 formed by a connecting base 22. The output end of the drive motor 31 passes through the first cavity 201 and extends into the cup body 10 for transmission connection with the mixing blade assembly. The connecting base 22 is detachably connected to the cup body 10, allowing the user to easily add or pour food into the cup body 10 by removing the connecting base 22 during use, and also facilitating the cleaning of the mixing blade head and the cup body 10. A control circuit board 40 is installed inside the first cavity 201 and is equipped with a power supply female connector 410. A battery module 50 is installed inside a second cavity 202 formed by the top cover 21 and the connecting base 22. The battery module 50 is equipped with a power supply male connector 530 that is adapted to connect with the power supply female connector 410, allowing the battery module 50 to be movably inserted and removed relative to the control circuit board 40, facilitating the assembly and connection between the two. The top cover 21 and the connecting base 22 are detachably connected. When the top cover 21 is removed from the connecting base 22, the spare battery module 50 can be directly replaced with the existing battery module 50, or the existing battery module 50 can be removed and connected to an external charger for charging, thereby improving the flexibility of the blending cup. Based on the cooperation between the cup lid assembly 20, the control circuit board 40, and the battery module 50, this application makes the blending cup have a modular design. The assembly and connection between the various functional modules are simple, and the battery module 50 and the control circuit board 40 can be plugged and unplugged. An additional spare battery can be configured to increase the battery life, and the battery module 50 can be replaced individually when it fails.

[0053] Among them, the male power connector 530 can be a two-pin DC power plug, and the female power connector 410 can be a two-pin DC power socket.

[0054] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, in addition to the features of the above embodiments, this embodiment further defines that: the battery module 50 includes a battery casing 51, a battery pack 52 and a power supply circuit board 53 disposed in the battery casing 51, the power supply circuit board 53 is provided with a power supply male connector 530, the surface of the battery casing 51 protrudes to form a surrounding plate 510 with openings at both ends, the power supply male connector 530 is distributed in the surrounding plate 510, the connector 22 is provided with a slot 203 with openings at both ends, and the shape of the surrounding plate 510 is adapted to the slot 203. When the surrounding plate 510 is inserted into the slot 203, the power supply male connector 530 is electrically connected to the power supply female connector 410.

[0055] In the above embodiment, the connector 22 and the battery casing 51 are respectively provided with a slot 203 and a surrounding plate 510, and the surrounding plate 510 surrounds the periphery of the power supply male connector 530. When the surrounding plate 510 is inserted into the slot 203 on the connector 22, the power supply male connector 530 and the power supply female connector 410 are electrically connected. Based on the limiting effect of the slot 203 and the surrounding plate 510, it is not only convenient for the power supply male connector 530 and the power supply female connector 410 to be quickly positioned and assembled, but also ensures the stability of the connection between the two, thereby improving the power supply stability.

[0056] like Figure 1 and Figure 5 As shown, in addition to the features of the above embodiments, this embodiment further defines that: the battery casing 51 includes an upper casing 511 and a lower casing 512, and the upper casing 511 and the lower casing 512 are detachably connected.

[0057] The above embodiments further specify that the upper housing 511 can be detached from the lower housing 512 to facilitate the assembly and replacement of the battery pack 52.

[0058] The upper housing 511 and the lower housing 512 can be detachably connected by means of snap-fit, magnetic attraction, etc.

[0059] It should be noted that in some embodiments, the battery pack 52 may be composed of multiple dry cell batteries. Since the upper housing 511 and lower housing 512 are detachable, the dry cell batteries can be directly replaced or the removed dry cell batteries can be charged individually. In other embodiments, the battery pack 52 may be composed of multiple rechargeable lithium batteries.

[0060] like Figure 5 As shown, in addition to the features of the above embodiments, this embodiment further specifies that: the connecting seat 22 is provided with a mounting groove 204 in the direction of the top cover 21, the shape of the mounting groove 204 is adapted to the shape of the battery casing 51, and the slots 203 are distributed on the bottom of the mounting groove 204.

[0061] The above embodiment further specifies that the connector 22 is provided with a mounting groove 204 that matches the shape of the battery housing 51. When the battery housing 51 is inserted into the mounting groove 204, the surrounding plate 510 on the battery housing 51 is also inserted into the through groove. This not only facilitates the quick positioning and assembly connection of the power supply male connector 530 and the power supply female connector 410, but also avoids displacement between the battery module 50 and the connector 22 due to shaking, ensuring the stability of the connection between the two and thus improving the power supply stability.

[0062] like Figure 4 and Figure 5As shown, in addition to the features of the above embodiments, this embodiment further specifies that: the control circuit board 40 is also provided with a charging interface 420, which is used to connect to an external power source to charge the battery module 50 and / or supply power to the drive motor 31.

[0063] The above embodiments further specify the setting of a charging interface 420. After the charging interface 420 is connected to an external power source, it can directly supply power to the drive motor 31 and charge the battery pack 52, providing flexibility in the use of the cooking cup.

[0064] The charging connector can be one or a combination of USB-A, USB-C, Lightning, Micro-USB, and Type-P. It can be connected to 220V AC mains power or to power banks and other portable power sources.

[0065] It should be noted that either the power supply circuit board 53 or the control circuit board 40 may be equipped with a charging management system. When the charging connector is connected to an external power source, the charging management system charges the battery pack 52 in the battery module 50. Alternatively, while the battery pack 52 is charging, the drive motor 31 can also be directly powered by an external power source.

[0066] In addition to the features of the above embodiments, this embodiment further specifies that the power supply male connector 530 is adapted to connect to an external charger.

[0067] The above embodiments further specify that the power supply male connector 530 can be adapted to connect with an external charger, so that after the battery module 50 is removed from the connector 22, the battery module 50 can be directly charged by the external charger. During this period, a spare battery module 50 can be configured or an external power source can be connected through the charging interface 420 to drive the food processor to operate normally.

[0068] like Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, in addition to the features of the above embodiments, this embodiment further specifies that a magnetic switch 430 is provided on the control circuit board 40, a magnet 70 is provided on the top cover 21, and the top cover 21 can rotate relative to the connecting seat 22. When the top cover 21 rotates to the first position, the magnet 70 and the magnetic switch 430 are positioned opposite each other, triggering the magnetic switch 430 to change its working state, so that the circuit between the battery module 50 and the drive motor 31 is powered on.

[0069] The above embodiments further specify that the control circuit board 40 and the top cover 21 are respectively provided with a magnetic control switch 430 and a magnet 70 for cooperative use, to ensure that the circuit between the battery module 50 and the drive motor 31 can be triggered after the top cover 21 and the connecting seat 22 are reliably assembled, thus ensuring the safety of the food processor.

[0070] The magnetic switch 430 is a switch that controls the on / off state based on the action of a magnetic field. Specifically, based on the electrical connection between the magnetic switch 430 and the control circuit board 40, when the magnet 70 on the top cover 21 moves to the first position, the on / off state of the magnetic switch 430 changes. For example, when the magnet 70 is located outside the first position, the magnetic switch 430 is in the off state; when the magnet 70 moves to the first position, the magnetic switch 430 is in the on state. At this time, a power supply circuit is established between the battery module 50 and the drive motor 31.

[0071] In addition to the features of the above embodiments, this embodiment further specifies that: a micro switch is provided on the control circuit board 40, a trigger is provided on the top cover 21, the top cover 21 can rotate relative to the connecting seat 22, when the top cover 21 rotates to the first position, the trigger presses on the micro switch, triggering the micro switch to change its working state, so that the circuit between the battery module 50 and the drive motor 31 is powered on.

[0072] The above embodiments further specify that the control circuit board 40 and the top cover 21 are respectively provided with micro switches and triggers for cooperative use, so as to ensure that the circuit between the battery module 50 and the drive motor 31 can be powered on only after the top cover 21 and the connecting seat 22 are reliably assembled, thus ensuring the safety of the food processor.

[0073] A micro switch is a type of switch that uses external force to act on a transmission element, triggering an internal spring plate to move instantaneously, thus achieving rapid on / off switching of contacts. Specifically, based on the electrical connection between the micro switch and the control circuit board 40, when a trigger element such as a protrusion on the top cover 21 moves to the first position, the trigger element applies a pressing action to the micro switch, changing its on / off state. For example, when the trigger element is located outside the first position, the micro switch is in the off state; when the trigger element moves to the first position, the micro switch is in the on state, at which point a power supply circuit is established between the battery module 50 and the drive motor 31.

[0074] like Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, in addition to the features of the above embodiments, this embodiment further defines that: the connecting seat 22 includes a first housing 221 and a second housing 222, the first housing 221 is detachably connected to the top cover 21 and the second housing 222 respectively and surrounds the second cavity 202 and the first cavity 201, and the second housing 222 is detachably connected to the cup body 10.

[0075] The above embodiments further specify that the two interconnected shells are detachable, reducing the assembly difficulty of each functional module on the food processor cup, and the food processor cup is easy to disassemble.

[0076] The first housing 221 and the top cover 21 can be detachably connected by one or a combination of threads, snaps, magnetic attraction, etc. Furthermore, the first housing 221 and the second housing 222 can be detachably connected by threads, snaps, bolts, etc.; the second housing 222 and the cup body 10 can be detachably connected by threads or snaps, etc.

[0077] like Figure 1 As shown, in addition to the features of the above embodiments, this embodiment further specifies that a first sealing ring 61 is provided between the second housing 222 and the cup body 10.

[0078] like Figure 1 As shown, in addition to the features of the above embodiments, this embodiment further specifies that a second sealing ring 62 is provided between the first housing 221 and the top cover 21.

[0079] The technical features of the above embodiments can be combined in any way. For the sake of brevity, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.

[0080] The above embodiments only illustrate several implementation methods of this utility model, and their descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, but they should not be construed as limiting the scope of the utility model patent. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the concept of this utility model, and these all fall within the protection scope of this utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of this utility model patent should be determined by the appended claims.
