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 a food processor mainly include, but are not limited to, making soy milk, juicing, mincing meat, shaved ice, making coffee, and / or preparing face masks. Food processors can include soy milk makers, blenders, or food processors—machines that pulverize and blend food. Food processors generally include a blending jar, where food is pulverized and blended. Existing food processors include a blending jar and a base fitted to the bottom of the blending jar. The base has suction cups to allow the food processor to adhere and be positioned on the work surface. The blending jar and the base are detachable, but during operation, relative movement between the blending jar and the base can easily occur, resulting in poor stability. Utility Model Content

[0003] This application provides a food processor that prevents the mixing cup from rotating relative to the base, thus ensuring good stability.

[0004] This application provides a food processor. The food processor includes a blending cup, a main unit, and a cup base. The main unit is positioned above the blending cup, and the cup base is detachably fitted onto the bottom of the blending cup. The bottom wall of the blending cup is provided with an anti-rotation positioning component. One of the cup base and the anti-rotation positioning component has a raised rib, and the other has a groove that mates with the raised rib. Because the anti-rotation positioning component is located on the bottom wall of the blending cup, the engagement of the raised rib and the groove prevents the blending cup from rotating relative to the cup base, thus making the food processor operate more stably. Furthermore, the raised rib is located on the anti-rotation positioning component, making manufacturing easier.

[0005] Furthermore, the anti-rotation positioning component includes a plurality of convex ribs arranged circumferentially, and the cup holder is correspondingly provided with a plurality of grooves. The cooperation of the convex ribs and grooves makes the fit between the stirring cup and the cup holder more stable and reliable, resulting in a better anti-rotation effect.

[0006] Furthermore, the cup holder is provided with a plurality of protrusions, and a plurality of grooves are formed between two adjacent protrusions. Each protrusion has a guide surface extending toward the groove. When the stirring cup is placed in the cup holder, the protrusions automatically fall into the grooves under the guidance of the guide surfaces, thereby realizing automatic positional adjustment of the stirring cup relative to the cup holder, making it more convenient to use.

[0007] Furthermore, the radial dimension of the anti-rotation positioning component ranges from 30 mm to 100 mm. This achieves a good anti-rotation effect while avoiding increased costs, and the anti-rotation positioning component can be more stably and reliably fixed to the bottom wall of the mixing cup.

[0008] Furthermore, the anti-rotation positioning component is fixed to the bottom of the mixing cup by fasteners. In this way, the anti-rotation positioning component can be conveniently and reliably fixed to the bottom of the mixing cup.

[0009] Furthermore, a gasket is provided between the anti-rotation positioning component and the mixing cup. By providing the gasket, the friction between the anti-rotation positioning component and the mixing cup can be increased, thus better preventing the anti-rotation positioning component from rotating relative to the mixing cup.

[0010] Furthermore, the stirring cup is provided with a shaft portion, the shaft portion having a threaded hole, and the bottom wall of the stirring cup having a through hole corresponding to the threaded hole. The fastener passes through the through hole and is screwed into the threaded hole. In this way, the anti-rotation positioning component and the shaft portion can be simultaneously fixed to the bottom wall of the stirring cup by the fastener, making assembly simpler.

[0011] Furthermore, the cup holder is equipped with a shock-absorbing suction cup. By providing a shock-absorbing suction cup on the cup holder, the food processor can be stably fixed on the work surface, preventing it from slipping relative to the work surface during operation.

[0012] Furthermore, the cup holder includes an end wall and a side wall surrounding the end wall, and the groove is disposed in the end wall. This makes the fit between the stirring cup and the cup holder more stable and reliable.

[0013] Furthermore, the anti-rotation positioning component is made of plastic or metal. This makes the anti-rotation positioning component low-cost and easy to manufacture. Attached Figure Description

[0017] The food processor 100 can be used for grinding meat, kneading dough, etc. Please refer to [link / reference]. Figures 1 to 3 The food processor 100 includes a blending cup 10, a main unit 20, and a cup holder 30. The main unit 20 is disposed above the blending cup 10, and the cup holder 30 is detachably fitted onto the bottom of the blending cup 10.

[0018] The main unit 20 includes a housing 21 and a motor 22 disposed within the housing 21. The mixing cup 10 is provided with a mixing blade assembly 16, which is driven by the motor 22. The mixing blade assembly 16 can be a meat grinder or a dough kneader, and is not limited thereto.

[0019] In the illustrated embodiment, the food processor 100 further includes an isolation cover 40, which is positioned over the top of the blending cup 10 and between the blending cup 10 and the main unit 20. By providing the isolation cover 40, the food slurry inside the blending cup 10 can be prevented from contacting the main unit 20. After using the food processor 100, only the blending cup 10 and the isolation cover 40 need to be cleaned, without needing to clean the main unit 20.

[0020] The bottom wall of the stirring cup 10 is provided with an anti-rotation positioning component 11. One of the cup base 30 and the anti-rotation positioning component 11 is provided with a raised rib 111, and the other is provided with a groove 31 that mates with the raised rib 111. The anti-rotation positioning component 11 can be made into a sheet shape, a rod shape, or other regular or irregular shapes, and is not specifically limited here.

[0021] Since the anti-rotation positioning component 11 is set on the bottom wall of the mixing cup 10, the convex rib 111 and the groove 31 cooperate to prevent the mixing cup 10 from rotating relative to the cup base 30, thereby making the food processor 100 work more stably; in addition, since the convex rib 111 is set on the anti-rotation positioning component 11, it is easier to manufacture.

[0022] The anti-rotation positioning component 11 includes a plurality of convex ribs 111 arranged circumferentially, and the cup holder 30 is correspondingly provided with a plurality of grooves 31. The cooperation of the convex ribs 111 and the grooves 31 makes the fit between the stirring cup 10 and the cup holder 30 more stable and reliable, resulting in a better anti-rotation effect. In the illustrated embodiment, the convex ribs 111 are evenly arranged along the edge of the anti-rotation positioning component 11, but this is not a limitation.

[0023] The cup holder 30 has a plurality of protrusions 32, and a plurality of grooves 31 are formed between two adjacent protrusions 32. Each protrusion 32 has a guide surface 321 extending toward the groove 31. When the stirring cup 10 is placed in the cup holder 30, the protruding ribs 111 automatically fall into the grooves 31 under the guidance of the guide surface 321, thereby automatically correcting the position of the stirring cup 10 relative to the cup holder 30, making it more convenient to use. The guide surface 321 can be an arc surface or an inclined surface, and is not limited to these. The radial dimension of the anti-rotation positioning component 11 ranges from 30 mm to 100 mm. This achieves a good anti-rotation effect while avoiding increased costs, and the anti-rotation positioning component 11 can be more stably and reliably fixed to the bottom wall of the stirring cup 10. The anti-rotation positioning component 11 can be disc-shaped or polygonal, and is not limited to these forms.

[0024] In some embodiments, the radial dimension of the anti-rotation positioning member 11 can be 30 mm, 40 mm, 50 mm, 60 mm, 70 mm, 80 mm, 90 mm, 100 mm, or any value between any two adjacent values ​​mentioned above.

[0025] In the illustrated embodiment, the anti-rotation positioning member 11 is fixed to the bottom of the mixing cup 10 by a fastener 14. This allows the anti-rotation positioning member 11 to be conveniently and reliably fixed to the bottom of the mixing cup 10. In other embodiments, the anti-rotation positioning member 11 may be fixed to the bottom of the mixing cup 10 in other ways, which are not limited here.

[0026] In the illustrated embodiment, a gasket 15 is provided between the anti-rotation positioning member 11 and the stirring cup 10. By providing the gasket 15, the friction between the anti-rotation positioning member 11 and the stirring cup 10 can be increased, thus better preventing the anti-rotation positioning member 11 from rotating relative to the stirring cup 10.

[0027] The stirring cup 10 has a shaft portion 19 with a threaded hole 191. The bottom wall of the stirring cup 10 has a through hole 18 corresponding to the threaded hole 191. The fastener 14 passes through the through hole 18 and is screwed into the threaded hole 191. Thus, the anti-rotation positioning member 11 and the shaft portion 19 can be simultaneously fixed to the bottom wall of the stirring cup 10 by the fastener 14, simplifying assembly. The stirring blade assembly 16 rotatably engages with the shaft portion 19.

[0028] In the illustrated embodiment, the cup holder 30 is equipped with a shock-absorbing suction cup 39. By providing the shock-absorbing suction cup 39 on the cup holder 30, the food processor 100 can be stably fixed on the work surface, preventing the food processor 100 from slipping relative to the work surface during operation. In other embodiments, the cup holder 30 may be equipped with other anti-slip structures, and is not limited to these.

[0029] The cup holder 30 includes an end wall 34 and a side wall 35 surrounding the end wall 34, and the groove 31 is disposed in the end wall 34. The stirring cup 10 is supported on the end wall 34, and the side wall 35 surrounds the stirring cup 10, so that the fit between the stirring cup 10 and the cup holder 30 is more stable and reliable.

[0030] Preferably, the anti-rotation positioning component 11 is made of plastic or metal. This results in a lower cost and easier manufacturing of the anti-rotation positioning component 11.

[0031] 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.
