Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of kitchen appliance technology, specifically to a food processor. Background Technology

[0002] Food processors, such as blenders and soy milk makers, are common kitchen appliances with blending functions. They contain high-speed rotating blades to cut, grind, and blend ingredients. These machines typically have a maximum water level line; if users don't pay attention to this line and add too much liquid, overflow can easily occur.

[0003] In existing technology, to solve this problem, an overflow shield is installed below the lid of the food processor to prevent liquid from flowing upwards and thus preventing overflow. However, the overflow shield is relatively large, and its installation reduces the maximum processing capacity of the food processor. In soy milk makers, which also have a heating function, if too much water is added before processing, the soy milk formed by the water and soybeans will produce a lot of foam after boiling. If the foam exceeds the overflow shield and touches the lid, overflow will still occur. Utility Model Content

[0004] This invention aims to address one of the technical problems in related technologies to a certain extent. To this end, this invention provides a food processor with excellent spill prevention capabilities.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0006] A food processor includes a body, a lid, and a liquid outlet. The body and the lid are joined together to form a food processing chamber. The liquid outlet is formed between the lid and the body. The lid has a liquid outlet hole communicating with the liquid outlet. The food processing chamber has a guide plate extending into the lid. The guide plate is connected to the inner wall of the food processing chamber to guide the liquid flowing towards the liquid outlet hole onto the guide plate during the blending process.

[0007] The food processor disclosed in this utility model has a stirring function. A blade assembly is installed inside the food processor's cooking chamber. This blade assembly can cut and stir the ingredients placed inside the cooking chamber through high-speed rotation. The food processor is equipped with a liquid outlet and a liquid outlet hole. After cooking, there is no need to remove the lid; simply tilt the food processor to allow the liquid inside the cooking chamber to flow into the lid, out through the liquid outlet hole, and then pour out of the food processor. During the cooking process, the huge centrifugal force generated by the rotation of the blade assembly creates a vortex in the liquid inside the cooking chamber, and the outermost layer of liquid spirals upward along the inner wall of the cooking chamber. To prevent liquid from overflowing from the liquid outlet hole during cooking, a guide plate is installed inside the cooking chamber. The guide plate is connected to the inner wall of the cooking chamber. During stirring, the liquid flows along the inner wall of the cooking chamber. Before contacting the liquid outlet hole, the liquid first contacts the part where the guide plate connects to the inner wall of the cooking chamber, thus allowing it to flow from the side wall of the cooking chamber to the guide plate and continue flowing along the guide plate, reducing the probability of liquid contacting the liquid outlet hole during stirring. This reduces the likelihood of liquid overflowing during stirring. It should be noted that the connection between the baffle and the inner wall of the cooking cavity is only used to describe the relationship between the two. The connection can be formed by one-piece molding or by contact.

[0008] In existing technologies, the anti-overflow function of food processors typically involves an overflow shield located below the lid. This shield prevents liquid from rising and contacting the lid, thus avoiding leakage. However, in cases of large liquid volumes, the liquid may overflow the shield, rendering it ineffective. In this application, a baffle plate extends into the lid. When closed, the lid is generally positioned significantly higher than the water level line within the machine. Therefore, the baffle plate maintains its anti-overflow function even with large liquid volumes. Furthermore, the baffle plate is a plate-like structure that primarily diverts the liquid, altering its flow path to bypass the outlet and achieve the anti-overflow purpose. This eliminates the need for a complex structure or large dimensions (primarily thickness), resulting in a smaller size that doesn't occupy a large space within the food processing chamber, thereby minimizing the impact on the maximum amount of food the food processor can handle.

[0009] Optionally, the guide plate and the inner wall of the cooking chamber form an overflow prevention zone. During stirring, the guide plate guides the liquid flowing along the inner wall of the cooking chamber to bypass the overflow prevention zone in the circumferential direction. The inner wall of the cooking chamber with the liquid outlet is located within the overflow prevention zone. During stirring, the liquid flows circumferentially along the inner wall of the cooking chamber under the action of the blade assembly. During the flow, the liquid will come into contact with the guide plate. Guided by the guide plate, the liquid can flow circumferentially along the guide plate and bypass the overflow prevention zone, thereby reducing the probability of liquid entering the overflow prevention zone. The overflow prevention zone formed by the guide plate and the inner wall of the cooking chamber surrounds the end of the liquid outlet that connects to the cooking chamber, thus reducing the probability of liquid contacting the liquid outlet and achieving the overflow prevention effect.

[0010] Optionally, at least one side of the guide plate is vertically arranged and connects to or abuts against the inner wall of the cooking chamber on the side of the liquid outlet, so as to guide the liquid on the side of the liquid outlet to the guide plate during stirring, allowing the liquid to flow along the guide plate to the other side of the liquid outlet. The guide plate and the inner wall of the cooking chamber on the side of the liquid outlet have a connected or opposing fit, so that the liquid flowing circumferentially along the inner wall of the cooking chamber is intercepted by the side of the guide plate before contacting the liquid outlet, and thus guided to the guide plate. The side of the guide plate is vertically arranged and has a large size, so as to form an overflow prevention zone surrounding the liquid outlet with the inner wall of the cooking chamber. The guide plate can guide the liquid on one side of the liquid outlet to the other side of the liquid outlet, so that the liquid bypasses the overflow prevention zone, achieving an overflow prevention effect. Some food processors have blade assemblies that can rotate in both directions for better food processing. On these food processors, the sides of the baffle plate are connected to or abut against the inner walls of the food processing chamber on both sides of the liquid outlet, so that the baffle plate can guide the liquid around the overflow zone when the blade assembly rotates forward or backward.

[0011] Optionally, the side of the guide plate that connects to or abuts against the inner wall of the cooking chamber is smoothly transitioned to the inner side of the guide plate via an arc surface, and the inner side of the guide plate has an arc surface structure. By setting an arc surface between the side of the guide plate and its inner side, severe splashing of liquid on the inner wall of the cooking chamber can be avoided when it comes into contact with the guide plate. The arc surface structure of the inner side of the guide plate makes the liquid flow more smoothly along the guide plate, allowing it to flow smoothly to the other side of the liquid outlet, thus enhancing the anti-overflow effect of the guide plate.

[0012] Optionally, the upper end of the baffle plate is connected to the cover, and the lower end of the baffle plate is not lower than the lower end of the liquid outlet and maintains a radial distance from the liquid outlet. The height of the baffle plate determines its liquid interception range. Connecting the upper end of the baffle plate to the cover prevents liquid from crossing the upper end of the baffle plate and entering the overflow prevention zone; the lower end of the baffle plate is at least lower than the lower end of the liquid outlet, ensuring the overflow prevention zone protects the liquid outlet. Maintaining a radial distance between the lower end of the baffle plate and the liquid outlet allows liquid to enter the overflow prevention zone through the gap between the lower end of the baffle plate and the liquid outlet when the blender is poured, and then flow out from the liquid outlet to the liquid outlet. Because the lower end of the overflow prevention zone is open, even with the baffle plate, the amount of liquid residue inside the blender will not increase.

[0013] Optionally, the baffle plate is integrally formed with the cover; or, the cover has a slot, and the baffle plate is inserted into the slot. The baffle plate can be integrally formed with the cover or detachably connected. Integral forming allows the baffle plate to connect to the inner wall of the cooking chamber, and the connection point can be processed and designed to reduce the resistance encountered when liquid is guided onto the baffle plate. Detachable connection between the baffle plate and the cover via a slot allows for separate cleaning of both, reducing food residue residue in the spill containment area. Furthermore, the slot-connected assembly of the baffle plate makes assembly and disassembly simple and convenient, eliminating the need for additional locking components such as screws between the baffle plate and the cover, simplifying the structure of the contact area and making it easier to clean.

[0014] Optionally, the guide plate and the inner wall of the cooking chamber form an overflow prevention zone, located below the liquid outlet. During stirring, the guide plate guides the liquid flowing along the inner wall of the cooking chamber away from the overflow prevention zone in a radially deflected manner. The guide plate can guide the liquid spiraling upward along the inner wall of the cooking chamber, causing the fluid flowing towards the liquid outlet to deviate radially from the overflow prevention zone, thus moving it away from the liquid outlet. Even if it continues to flow upward after passing the guide plate, the guiding effect of the guide plate causes the liquid to move away from the overflow prevention zone while flowing upward, achieving the overflow prevention function. With this design, the guide plate does not need to be higher than the liquid outlet to form an overflow prevention zone below the liquid outlet, maintaining a large gap between the upper end of the guide plate and the top of the cover, so that the blender does not need to be over-poured when pouring out the liquid.

[0015] Optionally, the lower end of the guide plate is connected to or abuts against the inner wall of the cooking cavity, and the upper end of the guide plate maintains a radial distance from the liquid outlet. At least part of the inner side of the guide plate extends gradually inward from bottom to top. The lower end of the guide plate has a connection or abutment with the inner wall of the cooking cavity, and the lower end of the guide plate can intercept the liquid flowing spirally upward along the inner wall of the cooking cavity, allowing the liquid to continue flowing along the guide plate. Under the action of inertia, the liquid will still flow upward when flowing along the guide plate. The guide plate is designed to extend gradually inward from top to bottom, so that the liquid gradually flows towards the center of the cooking cavity and deviates from the overflow prevention zone, thereby maintaining a distance from the liquid outlet and achieving the overflow prevention function.

[0016] Optionally, the guide plate is a ring-shaped structure arranged circumferentially around the inner wall of the cooking cavity. The ring-shaped design of the guide plate allows it to guide liquid along the entire circumference of the inner wall of the cooking cavity, thereby improving its spill prevention effect.

[0017] Optionally, the liquid outlet is formed at the upper end of the body, and the circumferential sidewall of the cover is inserted into the body and circumferentially sealed to the body. The liquid outlet is located on the circumferential sidewall. After the cover is closed with the body, a circumferential seal is formed between the cover and the body to prevent liquid in the cooking chamber from entering the liquid outlet through the gap between them and overflowing outside the food processor. The liquid must first pass through the liquid outlet before it can be poured out of the food processor.

[0033] The embodiments of this utility model are described in detail below. Examples of these embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described are intended to explain this utility model and should not be construed as limiting it.

[0034] The terms "an embodiment," "example," or "trademark" used in this specification refer to a particular feature, structure, or characteristic described in connection with the embodiment itself that may be included in at least one embodiment disclosed in this utility model. The phrase "in an embodiment" appearing in various places throughout the specification does not necessarily refer to the same embodiment.

[0035] Reference Figures 1 to 7 This utility model discloses a food processor, including a body 100, a lid 200, and a food processing chamber 300 formed by the two fitting together. The body 100 is provided with a blade assembly 400 extending to the bottom of the food processing chamber 300. The blade assembly 400 can rotate at high speed to cut and blend the ingredients within the food processing chamber 300. The food processor can be a blender, a soy milk maker, or other similar equipment. If it is a soy milk maker, a heating element will also be installed inside the body 100 to heat the liquid while cutting and blending.

[0036] The food processor is also equipped with a liquid outlet 110 and a liquid outlet hole 210 communicating with the liquid outlet 110. The upper end of the body 100 is open for the lid 200 to close. The upper end of the body 100 protrudes outward, and after the lid 200 is closed, the protruding part forms the liquid outlet 110 between the protruding part and the lid 200. A sealing ring 201 is embedded around the outer periphery of the lid 200. When the lid 200 is closed with the body 100, the lid 200 is inserted into the body 100 and sealed circumferentially with the body 100 through the sealing ring 201 to avoid... The liquid inside the cooking chamber 300 enters the outlet 110 through the gap between the two and overflows out of the food processor. At the same time, the body 100 and the cover 200 are kept closed by the friction of the sealing ring 201. The outlet 210 is located on the cover 200. When it is necessary to pour out the liquid inside the food processor, there is no need to remove the cover 200. Simply tilt the entire food processor so that the liquid inside the body 100 enters the cover 200 and then passes through the outlet 210 to the outlet 110 and is poured out from the food processor.

[0037] The cover 200 has an upper cover 202 and a lower cover 203. The upper cover 202 is provided with a handle 204. The lower cover 203 is located below the upper cover 202 and is ring-shaped, forming part of the cooking chamber 300. The liquid outlet 210 is provided on the lower cover 203, and the sealing ring 201 is installed on the outer periphery of the lower cover 203. When the cover 200 is closed with the body 100, the upper cover 202 is supported on the upper edge of the body 100, and the lower cover 203 is inserted into the body 100. The liquid outlet 110 is formed by the outward protrusion on the body 100 and the lower cover 203.

[0038] To improve cooking results, the blade assembly 400 features extremely high rotation speed. This serves two purposes: firstly, the high-speed rotating blades rapidly pulverize the ingredients; secondly, the centrifugal force generated during rotation creates a vortex in the liquid, producing a stirring effect while simultaneously breaking down the ingredients into uniform particles. However, due to the extremely high rotation speed of the blade assembly 400, a significant height difference exists between the center and outer edge of the vortex formed within the cooking chamber 300. This causes liquid to easily spiral upwards along the inner wall of the cooking chamber 300 during stirring, potentially overflowing through the liquid outlet 210 and causing contamination, thus reducing the user experience.

[0039] To address this issue, a baffle plate 500 with anti-overflow function is installed inside the cooking cavity 300.

[0040] The guide vane 500 extends into the cover 200, and its radial position is located in the area between the liquid outlet 210 and the axis of the blade assembly 400 (e.g., Figure 2 As shown, Figure 2 The dotted line L1 indicates the axis of the blade assembly, which is the rotation center of the liquid vortex. Since the cover and body are coaxially arranged in this application and both are cylindrical inside, L1 is also the axis of the cooking chamber on the cover and body. The guide plate 500 is connected to the inner wall of the cooking chamber 300. During the stirring process, the liquid rotates around the axis of the cooking chamber 300 along the inner wall of the cooking chamber 300. Before contacting the outlet 110, the liquid will first contact the part where the guide plate 500 is connected to the inner wall of the cooking chamber 300. Thus, the guide plate 500 can intercept the liquid, allowing the liquid to flow from the side wall of the cooking chamber 300 to the guide plate 500. The guide plate 500 guides the liquid flowing through it, causing the liquid to bypass the outlet 210 during the flow along the guide plate 500, reducing the probability of the liquid contacting the outlet 210 during the stirring process. This can reduce the situation of liquid overflow during the stirring process.

[0041] Existing technologies also include soymilk makers with anti-overflow functions, which use an anti-overflow cover located below the lid to prevent spillage. This cover prevents liquid from rising and contacting the lid, thus avoiding leakage. However, with a large volume of liquid, as the internal temperature rises, the liquid boils and overflows above the cover, rendering it ineffective. In this application, the guide plate 500 extends into the lid 200, and when closed, the lid 200 is generally positioned much higher than the water level line in the body 100. Therefore, it can prevent liquid from entering the lid 200 from the body 100 when the liquid volume is large. Furthermore, the guide plate 500 is a plate-like structure that primarily diverts the liquid, changing its flow path to bypass the outlet 210 and achieving the anti-overflow purpose. This eliminates the need for a complex structure and large dimensions (mainly thickness), keeping its size small and minimizing its impact on the maximum amount of food the blender can handle.

[0042] In addition, the liquid outlet 210 is also configured to consist of multiple small through holes arranged at intervals, with each hole being small in size, so that even if liquid overflows accidentally, the amount of liquid overflowed can be reduced.

[0043] like Figures 3 to 5 As shown, based on the above embodiments, in one embodiment of this utility model, the guide plate 500 and the inner wall of the cooking chamber 300 form an overflow prevention area 510, and the liquid outlet 210 is located within the overflow prevention area 510. During the stirring process, the guide plate 500 guides the liquid flowing along the axis of the cooking chamber 300 to bypass the overflow prevention area 510 in the circumferential direction. Figure 5 As shown, Figure 5 The middle arrow indicates the direction of liquid flow (the actual flow direction of the liquid should be upward, but for ease of understanding, only its circumferential flow is indicated here).

[0044] In the above, the location of the liquid outlet 210 within the overflow prevention zone 510 means that the overflow prevention zone 510 consists of two parts: the inner wall of the cooking chamber 300 and the side wall outside the guide plate 500. In this embodiment, the inner wall of the cooking chamber 300 with the liquid outlet 210 area is part of the overflow prevention zone 510.

[0045] During the stirring process, the liquid flows circumferentially along the inner wall of the cooking chamber 300 under the action of the blade assembly 400. During the flow, the liquid will come into contact with the guide plate 500. Guided by the guide plate 500, the liquid can flow circumferentially along the guide plate 500 and bypass the overflow prevention zone 510, thereby reducing the probability of liquid entering the overflow prevention zone 510, thus reducing the probability of liquid contacting the liquid outlet 210, so as to achieve the overflow prevention function.

[0046] Specifically, at least one side of the guide plate 500 is vertically arranged and connected to or abuts against the inner wall of the cooking chamber 300 on the side of the liquid outlet 210, so as to guide the liquid on the side of the liquid outlet 210 to the guide plate 500 during the stirring process, so that the liquid flows along the guide plate 500 to the other side of the liquid outlet 210.

[0047] At least one side of the guide plate 500 is a vertically arranged vertical edge 520. The vertical edge 520 is connected to or abuts against the inner wall of the cooking cavity 300 on the side of the liquid outlet 210, so that the liquid flowing circumferentially along the inner wall of the cooking cavity 300 is intercepted by the vertical edge 520 of the guide plate 500 before contacting the liquid outlet 210, and the liquid is guided to the guide plate 500. Because the vertical edge 520 is arranged vertically, it has a large vertical dimension, and therefore also has a large interception range for liquid, so that it can form an overflow prevention zone 510 surrounding the liquid outlet 210 with the inner wall of the cooking cavity 300. Under the guidance of the guide plate 500, the liquid on one side of the liquid outlet 210 can be guided circumferentially to the other side of the liquid outlet 210, so that the liquid bypasses the overflow prevention zone 510, achieving an overflow prevention effect.

[0048] Some food processors have blade assemblies 400 that can rotate in both directions to achieve better food processing results. On these food processors, the baffle 500 has vertical edges 520 on both sides, and the two vertical edges 520 are connected to or abut against the inner walls of the food processing chambers 300 on both sides of the liquid outlet 210, so that the baffle 500 can guide the liquid around the overflow prevention area 510 when the blade assembly 400 rotates forward or backward.

[0049] Reference Figure 5 Based on the above embodiments, in one embodiment of the present invention, the vertical side 520 of the guide plate 500 and the inner side surface of the guide plate 500 are smoothly transitioned by an arc surface, and the inner side surface of the guide plate 500 has an arc surface structure.

[0050] By setting an arc surface between the vertical side 520 and the inner side of the guide plate 500, the process of liquid flowing from the inner wall of the cooking chamber 300 to the guide plate 500 can be smoother, avoiding severe splashing of liquid on the inner wall of the cooking chamber 300 when it comes into contact with the guide plate 500. The inner side of the guide plate 500 is set with an arc surface structure, so that the liquid flows more smoothly along the guide plate 500 and flows smoothly to the other side of the liquid outlet 210, which enhances the anti-overflow effect of the guide plate 500.

[0051] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 4 Based on the above embodiments, in one embodiment of this utility model, the upper end of the guide plate 500 is connected to the cover 200, and the lower end of the guide plate 500 is not lower than the lower end of the liquid outlet 210.

[0052] The height of the baffle 500 determines its liquid interception range. Connecting the upper end of the baffle 500 to the cover 200 prevents liquid from crossing the upper end of the baffle 500 and entering the overflow prevention zone 510. The lower end of the baffle 500 is at least lower than the lower end of the liquid outlet 210, ensuring that the overflow prevention zone 510 protects the liquid outlet 210 and prevents some liquid from contacting the end liquid outlet 210 during its circumferential flow along the inner wall of the cooking cavity 300 because it is not guided by the baffle 500.

[0053] To ensure proper liquid discharge from the blender, the lower end of the baffle 500 maintains a radial distance from the outlet 210, leaving the lower end of the overflow prevention zone 510 open. This allows liquid to enter the overflow prevention zone 510 through the gap between the lower end of the baffle 500 and the outlet 210 when the blender is being poured, and then flow out from the outlet 210 into the outlet 110. Because the lower end of the overflow prevention zone 510 is open, after the liquid is poured out of the blender, removing the liquid adhering to the surface of the baffle 500 prevents additional liquid residue from remaining in the blender, reducing unnecessary food waste.

[0054] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 4 Based on the above embodiments, in one embodiment of this utility model, the arrangement of the guide plate 500 is specifically described.

[0055] like Figure 4 As shown, optionally, the baffle 500 and the cover 200 are integrally formed. Through this integral forming method, the baffle 500 can be designed so that its vertical side is connected to the inner wall of the cooking chamber 300. By processing and designing the connection point, the curved surface at the connection point is made smoother, reducing the resistance encountered when liquid is guided onto the baffle 500. Because the baffle 500 and the cover 200 are integrally formed, there are no gaps between the mating parts (top and sides), reducing the probability of liquid entering the spill prevention zone 510.

[0056] like Figure 3 As shown, optionally, the cover 200 is provided with a slot 220, and the baffle 500 is inserted into the slot 220 and abuts against the inner wall of the cooking cavity 300. By providing the slot 220, the baffle 500 and the cover 200 are detachably connected, allowing for separate cleaning of both, reducing food residue residue in the spill containment area 510. Furthermore, the insertion and engagement of the baffle 500 via the slot 220 simplifies the assembly and disassembly of the baffle 500, eliminating the need for additional locking components such as screws between the baffle 500 and the cover 200, thus simplifying the structure of the contact area and making it easier to clean. Alternatively, the baffle 500 can also be detachably connected to the cover 200 via clips or other methods.

[0057] like Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, unlike the above embodiments, in another embodiment of this utility model, the guide plate 500 and the inner wall of the cooking chamber 300 form an overflow prevention area 510, which is located below the liquid outlet 210. During the stirring process, the guide plate 500 guides the liquid flowing along the axis of the cooking chamber 300 to move away from the overflow prevention area 510 in a radially deflected manner. Figure 6 As shown, Figure 6 The middle arrow indicates the direction of liquid flow (the actual flow direction of the liquid should be upward, but for ease of understanding, only the upward flow is marked here).

[0058] The baffle plate 500 guides the liquid flowing spirally upward along the inner wall of the blending chamber 300, causing the fluid flowing towards the outlet 110 to deviate radially from the overflow prevention zone 510, thus moving it away from the outlet 110. Even after passing through the baffle plate 500, the liquid continues to flow upward, but the guiding effect of the baffle plate 500 causes it to move away from the overflow prevention zone 510 while flowing upward, achieving the overflow prevention function. This design of the baffle plate 500 eliminates the need for it to be higher than the outlet 210 to form an overflow prevention zone 510 below the outlet 210, maintaining a larger gap between the upper end of the baffle plate 500 and the top of the cover 200. This eliminates the need to excessively tilt the blender when pouring out liquid.

[0059] In the above embodiments, the overflow prevention method of the guide plate 500 is to guide the liquid around the overflow prevention area 510 in a circumferential direction to reduce the probability of the liquid contacting the liquid outlet 210, thereby achieving the overflow prevention effect.

[0060] In this embodiment, the overflow preventer 500 guides the liquid upwards while simultaneously providing a tendency for the liquid to deviate towards the axis of the cooking chamber 300, thus moving it away from the overflow prevention zone 510 and achieving the overflow prevention effect. The solution used in this embodiment differs in principle from the above embodiments, but it achieves the same overflow prevention effect.

[0061] like Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, based on the above embodiments, in one embodiment of this utility model, the lower end of the guide plate 500 is connected to or abuts against the inner wall of the cooking chamber 300, the upper end of the guide plate 500 maintains a radial distance from the liquid outlet 210, and at least part of the inner side of the guide plate 500 gradually extends from bottom to top toward the axis of the cooking chamber 300. During the stirring process, the liquid flowing toward the liquid outlet 210 is guided by the guide plate 500 and flows toward the axis of the cooking chamber 300.

[0062] The lower end of the baffle 500 is connected to or abuts against the inner wall of the cooking cavity 300. The lower end of the baffle 500 can intercept the liquid flowing spirally upward along the inner wall of the cooking cavity 300, allowing the liquid to continue flowing along the baffle 500. Under the action of inertia, the liquid will still flow upward along the baffle 500. The baffle 500 is designed to gradually approach the axis of the cooking cavity 300 from top to bottom, so that the liquid gradually flows towards the center of the cooking cavity 300 and deviates from the overflow prevention zone 510, thereby maintaining a distance from the liquid outlet 210 and achieving the overflow prevention function. The inner surface of the baffle 500 that guides the fluid can be an arc surface or a slope.

[0063] Preferably, the baffle 500 is integrally formed with the body 100, and the baffle 500 is a ring-shaped structure arranged circumferentially around the inner wall of the cooking cavity 300. If the baffle 500 is designed to have a side connected to the cooking cavity 300, it is easy for the liquid to flow from the inner wall of the cooking cavity 300 to the baffle 500, and then bypass the upper end of the baffle 500 and enter the overflow prevention zone 510. By setting the baffle 500 as a ring-shaped structure, the baffle 500 can guide the liquid on the entire circumference of the inner wall of the cooking cavity 300, thereby improving the overflow prevention effect of the baffle 500.

[0064] In addition, the deflector 500 can also be an arc-shaped sheet metal part.

[0065] The deflector plate 500 is located below the cover 200 and is integrally formed with the body 100. The space formed between the deflector plate 500 and the end of the body 100 can accommodate the circumferential sidewall of the cover 200 during assembly.

[0066] like Figure 2 As shown, based on the above embodiments, in one embodiment of this utility model, the inner wall of the cooking cavity 300 is further provided with several vertically extending protruding edges 120, which are located below the guide plate 500. The protruding edges 120 protrude inward from the inner wall of the cooking cavity 300, which can obstruct the flow of liquid along the inner wall of the cooking cavity 300, reduce the fluid flow rate, and thus reduce the height of the liquid on the inner wall of the cooking cavity 300 to a certain extent; when the liquid comes into contact with the protruding edges 120, it will collide with the protruding edges 120 and splash, thereby disrupting the formation of vortex. Since the protruding edges 120 are located below the guide plate 500, the droplets splashed after the liquid collides with the protruding edges 120 are also unlikely to contact the liquid outlet 210, thus improving the spill prevention performance of the food processor.

[0067] The above are merely specific embodiments of this utility model, but the scope of protection of this utility model is not limited thereto. Those skilled in the art should understand that this utility model includes, but is not limited to, the contents described in the accompanying drawings and the specific embodiments above. Any modifications that do not depart from the functional and structural principles of this utility model will be included within the scope of the claims.
