Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of food processing, 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 machines that crush and blend food, such as soy milk makers, blenders, or high-speed blenders. Existing food processors include a base, a lid, and a blending cup assembly. The electronic components in the base and the lid are connected by wires. When the lid is opened, the wires may be pulled, leading to damage or breakage after prolonged use, affecting the safety and lifespan of the food processor. Utility Model Content

[0003] This application provides a food processor that offers high safety during use and has a longer service life.

[0004] This application provides a food processor. The food processor includes: a base, including a base and a support extending upward from the base, wherein a first electronic component is disposed within the base; a mixing cup assembly assembled to the base; and a lid rotatably assembled to the support, wherein the lid covers the mixing cup assembly, and a second electronic component is disposed within the lid; wherein the first electronic component and the second electronic component are electrically connected by a wire, and the support includes a winding post disposed at its top, wherein the wire is wound around the winding post, and a radial gap exists between the portion of the wire wound around the winding post and the winding post. Because the base houses the first electronic component and the cover houses the second electronic component, the accumulation of the first and second electronic components within the base helps to reduce the height of the food processor. Furthermore, because the wire is wound around a winding post, and there is a radial gap between the portion of the wire wound around the winding post and the winding post, the wire is pulled when the cover is opened, reducing the gap between the wire and the winding post. This prevents the wire from being subjected to significant pulling or bending, making it less prone to damage or breakage. Thus, the food processor has good safety and a long service life.

[0005] Furthermore, the gap between the conductor and the winding post is not less than 1 mm. This gap is sufficient to buffer the distance the conductor is pulled when the cover is opened, thereby better preventing the conductor from being subjected to significant pulling or bending, and making the conductor less prone to damage or breakage.

[0006] Furthermore, the cover is rotatably assembled to the support base via a pivot. The cover can be opened and closed by rotating it up and down around the pivot.

[0007] Furthermore, the top of the support base has a recessed cavity, and the cover includes a connecting end located within the recessed cavity, with the rotating shaft disposed at the connecting end. This allows the cover to be assembled more stably and reliably onto the support base, resulting in a compact structure.

[0008] Furthermore, the inner wall of the cavity is provided with a groove and a latch, the latch rotatably confining the winding post within the groove. This achieves the limitation of the winding post, and since the winding post is rotatable, when the cover is opened and the wire is pulled, the winding post can rotate along with the wire as it tightens, better preventing the wire from being pulled too hard and providing better protection for the wire.

[0009] Furthermore, the support base is provided with a first wire hole for the wire to pass through, and the cover is provided with a second wire hole for the wire to pass through. The first wire hole and the second wire hole are staggered in the horizontal direction. In this way, the wires are prevented from being squeezed together, and the wires can be tightened more smoothly when the cover is opened.

[0010] Furthermore, the center distance between the rotating shaft and the winding post is H, and the sum of the distance between the rotating shaft and the second wire hole and the radius of the winding post is L. H and L satisfy the following condition: H is greater than 1.5L. This reduces the degree of bending of the wire located between the rotating shaft and the winding post, thereby protecting the wire.

[0011] Furthermore, the first wire hole is provided with a sealing buckle to define the wire; or, the support base is provided with a wire clamping member to define the wire. This serves to position the wire, preventing it from being pulled when the cover is opened.

[0012] Furthermore, the cover is provided with a wire clamping member to define the wire; or, the second wire hole is provided with a sealing wire buckle to define the wire. This serves to position the wire, preventing it from being pulled when the cover is opened.

[0013] Furthermore, the first electronic component is a power supply component, and the second electronic component is a control component. Avoiding stacking the control component and power supply component within the base reduces the base's height, thereby effectively reducing the overall height of the food processor and making the food processor more compact and aesthetically pleasing, taking up less space.

[0021] Please see Figures 1 to 5 The food processor 100 can be used to make soy milk, rice paste, juice, etc. The food processor 100 includes a base 10, a blending cup assembly 20, and a lid 30.

[0022] The base 10 includes a base 11 and a support 12 extending upward from the base 11. The support 12 and the base 11 can be integrally formed or separately formed and then assembled together. A first electronic component is provided inside the base 10.

[0023] The mixing cup assembly 20 is assembled on the base 11. The mixing cup assembly 20 includes a mixing cup 21, a heating plate 22, and a blade assembly 23. The heating plate 22 and the blade assembly 23 are disposed at the bottom of the mixing cup 21. The mixing cup 21 is used to hold food ingredients, the heating plate 22 is used to heat the food ingredients in the mixing cup 21, and the blade assembly 23 is used to stir and grind the food ingredients in the mixing cup 21.

[0024] The cover 30 is rotatably assembled to the support base 12 and covers the mixing cup assembly 20. A second electronic component is provided inside the cover 30.

[0025] The first electronic component and the second electronic component are electrically connected by a wire 19. The support base 12 includes a winding post 219 disposed at its top end. The wire 19 is wound around the winding post 219, and there is a radial gap between the portion of the wire 19 wound around the winding post 219 and the winding post 219.

[0026] Because the base 10 houses the first electronic component and the cover 30 houses the second electronic component, the accumulation of the first and second electronic components within the base 11 is avoided, which helps to reduce the height of the food processor 100. Since the wire 19 is wound around the winding post 219, and there is a radial gap between the portion of the wire 19 wound around the winding post 219 and the winding post 219, the wire 19 is pulled when the cover 30 is opened, reducing the gap between the wire 19 and the winding post 219. This prevents the wire 19 from being subjected to significant pulling or bending, making it less prone to damage or breakage. Thus, the food processor 100 has good safety and a long service life.

[0027] Preferably, the gap between the conductor 19 and the winding post 219 is not less than 1 mm. This gap is sufficient to buffer the distance the conductor 19 is pulled when the cover 30 is opened, thereby better preventing the conductor 19 from being subjected to significant pulling or bending, making the conductor 19 less prone to damage or breakage.

[0028] In some embodiments, the gap between the conductor 19 and the winding post 219 can be 1 mm, 1.5 mm, 2 mm, 2.5 mm, 3 mm, 4 mm, or any value between any two adjacent of the above.

[0029] The cover 30 is rotatably assembled to the support base 12 via a pivot 37. The cover 30 can be opened and closed by rotating it up and down around the pivot 37.

[0030] In the illustrated embodiment, the support base 12 has a recessed cavity 17 at its top, and the cover 30 includes a connecting end 38 located within the recessed cavity 17, with the rotating shaft 37 disposed at the connecting end 38. This allows the cover 30 to be assembled more stably and reliably onto the support base 12, resulting in a compact structure.

[0031] The inner wall of the cavity 17 is provided with a groove 161 and a latch 162. The latch 162 rotatably confines the winding post 219 within the groove 161. This achieves the limitation of the winding post 219. Simultaneously, because the winding post 219 is rotatable, during the opening of the cover 30, when the wire 19 is pulled, the winding post 219 can rotate along with the wire 19 as it tightens, better preventing the wire 19 from being pulled forcefully and providing better protection for the wire 19.

[0032] The support base 12 has a first wire hole 129 for the wire 19 to pass through, and the cover 30 has a second wire hole 39 for the wire 19 to pass through. The first wire hole 129 and the second wire hole 39 are staggered in the horizontal direction. This prevents the wire 19 from being squeezed together, and allows the wire 19 to be tightened more smoothly when the cover 30 is opened.

[0033] The center distance between the rotating shaft 37 and the winding post 219 is H, and the sum of the distance between the rotating shaft 37 and the second wire hole 39 and the radius of the winding post 219 is L. H and L satisfy the following condition: H is greater than 1.5L. In this way, the bending degree of the wire 19 located between the rotating shaft 37 and the winding post 219 is reduced, thereby protecting the wire 19.

[0034] In the illustrated embodiment, the first wire hole 129 is provided with a sealing buckle 124 that defines the wire 19. By providing the sealing buckle 124, the first wire hole 129 is sealed, and the wire 19 is positioned, preventing the wire inside the base from being pulled when the cover 30 is opened. In another embodiment, the support base 12 is provided with a wire clamping member (not shown) that defines the wire 19.

[0035] In the illustrated embodiment, the cover 30 is provided with a wire clamping member 35 that defines the wire 19. The wire clamping member 35 positions the wire 19, preventing it from being pulled when the cover 30 is opened. The wire clamping member 35 is fixed inside the cover 30 by screws or clips, thus holding the wire 19 in place.

[0036] In another embodiment, the second wire hole 39 is provided with a sealing buckle that defines the wire 19. This also serves to position the wire 19, preventing the wire inside the cover 30 from being pulled when the cover 30 is opened.

[0037] In the illustrated embodiment, the first electronic component is a power supply component 13, and the second electronic component is a control component 31. Avoiding stacking the control component 31 and the power supply component 18 within the base 11 reduces the height of the base 11, thereby effectively reducing the height of the food processor 100, making the food processor 100 more compact and space-saving. In another embodiment, the first electronic component is a control component, and the second electronic component is a power supply component. These are just some examples and are not limited to the examples described above.

[0038] The mixing cup assembly 20 includes a lid 25 that covers the mixing cup 21. (See also...) Figure 2 The cup lid 25 and the machine cover 30 are formed as a single unit. This simplifies the structure of the stirring cup assembly 20.

[0039] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this application and is not intended to limit this application. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this application should be included within the scope of protection of this application.
