This baking machine is used in octadinal and oriental fine baker's and ensures functions such as kneading, beating and stirring. The baking machine includes an engine block 10 and a stirring bowl 40. the engine block 10 includes an engine head 10a and an engine base 10b. The agitating bowl 40 is mounted on the machine base 10b and aligned with the upper surface thereof. The machine head 10a is connected to the upper part of the machine base 10b, positioned above the agitating bowl 40. The machine head 10 amay include a motor and a stirring unit that may extend into the stirring bowl 40. The output shaft 12 of the motor can rotate the stirring unit, thereby providing functions such as stirring, beating and kneading in preparing the ingredients, thereby reducing the difficulty of culinary operations for the user. However, existing food processors including this baking machine only allow preparation of pie bottoms without offering a function of spreading cream. After preparing a cake base with the aid of the food processor, when cream is to be dispensed, the user must do this manually. In this manual process, the user for cake decoration must first place the cake bottom on a rotatable and separate plate, then rotate the turntable manually to spread the cream. This method is not very effective and requires much effort.In view of this background, the invention proposes a food processor which, while maintaining functions such as stirring, also includes a function of cream spreading, thereby expanding the functions of the food processor to meet the different needs of consumers with a single device. The food processor may be a baking machine, a juicer, a meat grinder, etc. The food processor will be described in detail below with reference to the figures. The features of the embodiments and examples described below may be combined with each other as long as they are not mutually exclusive.Referring to FIGS. 2, 3, and 4, FIG. 2 is a schematic view of the overall structure of a food processor according to an embodiment; FIG. 3 is a schematic exploded view of the structure of the food processor according to an embodiment; and FIG. 4 is a sectional view of the food processor in the exploded state according to an embodiment. The food processor according to this embodiment includes an engine block 10, a stirring bowl 40, a stirring unit (not shown), and a turntable unit 20. The output shaft 12 is provided with a turntable output head 121 and a stirring output head 122. The agitation output head 122 is connected to the agitation unit, and the engine block 10 can rotate the agitation unit in the agitation bowl 40. The top of the housing 11 is provided with an opening 111 which exposes the turntable output head 121. The turntable unit 20 includes a turntable 21 for carrying a cake. The turntable 21 is connected to the turntable output head 121 through the opening 111, and the engine block 10 can drive the output shaft 12 to rotate the turntable 21 in its circumferential direction.From this description, it will be understood that the addition of the turntable output head 121 to the output shaft 12 of the food processor aims to rotate the cake supporting turntable 21. On the one hand, when the output shaft 12 rotates the rotary plate 21, the cake on the rotary plate 21 also rotates therewith, and at this time, the cream on the surface of the cake is subjected to a centrifugal force by being displaced outward along the surface of the cake, causing a relatively uniform distribution of the cream on the surface of the cake. During this operation, the user can use the doctor to spread the cream. Thus, the food processor of the invention can assist the user in spreading the cream, which improves efficiency and at the same time reduces the effort required. On the other hand, during the rotation of the turntable 21 with the cake, the user can easily observe the spreading of the cream on the cake, adjust the amount of cream in time, and control the rotation of the turntable 21 to guarantee an optimum result. In addition, as compared with the large professional machines used for spreading cream on the cake, the food processor of this invention is more compact in size and occupies less space, thereby being suitable for domestic use.Note that the connection between the turntable 21 and the turntable output head 121 of the output shaft 12 may be a direct connection, i.e., the output shaft 12 directly rotates the turntable 21. Or, the connection between the turntable 21 and the turntable output head 121 can be an indirect connection, i.e. the output shaft 12 is connected to the turntable 21 via a gear unit.Referring to FIGS. 5 and 6, FIG. 5 is a schematic view of the structure of the engine block 10 according to an embodiment, and FIG. 6 is a sectional view of the turntable unit 20 according to an embodiment. In one embodiment, the turntable unit 20 also includes a speed reduction assembly 22, the turntable 21 is connected to the speed reduction assembly 22, and the speed reduction assembly 22 is connected to the turntable output head 121. In other words, the turntable 21 is connected to the turntable output head 121 via the speed reduction structure 22. The speed reduction structure 22 is used to reduce the rotational speed of the turntable 21. The speed reduction structure 22 enables the high-speed rotation of the output shaft 12 to be converted into a lower rotational speed suitable for the turntable 21, thereby controlling the rotational speed of the turntable 21 and preventing it from rotating too fast.The speed reduction assembly 22 may be of various types, such as, but not limited to, a gear train, a belt transmission, a planetary gear train, a worm gear train, a hydraulic gear train, etc.Moreover, the connection between the speed reduction structure 22 and the turntable output head 121 can be made via a connector 23. The connector 23 may include, but is not limited to, a coupling, a flange connector, a wedge connector, and so forth. The specific configurations of the speed reduction structure 22 and the connector 23 may be included in existing reference works, and the invention will not be further directed thereto.In a more advanced embodiment, the speed reduction assembly 22 is used to reduce the rotational speed of the turntable 21 to a range of 1 U / min to 50 U / min. Here, "U / min" means "revolutions per minute". In other words, the rotational speed of the turntable 21 is between 1 revolution per minute and 50 revolutions per minute. In this speed range, the user can easily observe the spreading of the cream on the one hand, and the cream can flow with the turntable 21 to spread evenly on the surface of the cake without causing splashing on the other hand.For example, the rotational speed of the turntable 21 may be 1 rpm (the turntable 21 is 1 revolution per minute), and at this speed, the user can clearly observe the cream spread and intervene in the flow thereof manually. The speed of rotation of the turntable 21 may also be 50 rpm (the turntable 21 makes 50 rpm) and at this speed the cream may flow more quickly with the turntable 21 to distribute more evenly on the surface of the cake. The rotational speed of the turntable 21 may also be 20 rpm, 25 rpm, 30 rpm, etc.Referring to FIG. 7, FIG. 7 is an exploded schematic view of the turntable 21 and the speed reduction assembly 22 according to an embodiment. In one embodiment, the turntable 21 is also detachably connected to the speed reduction assembly 22. Thus, the turntable 21 can be removed from the speed reduction assembly 22, facilitating cleaning.In a specific embodiment, one of the turntable 21 or the speed reduction assembly 22 is provided with a rotary lock terminal 213, while the other is provided with a rotary lock receiver 221. The rotary lock terminal 213 is rotatably locked to the rotary lock receiver 221, thereby enabling a practical detachable connection between the turntable 21 and the speed reduction structure 22, while at the same time ensuring a firm and stable connection. In another embodiment, one of the turntable 21 and the speed reduction assembly 22 may be provided with a lock pin while the other may be provided with a lock groove. The engaging pin is inserted directly into the engaging groove, thereby enabling a detachable connection between the turntable 21 and the speed reduction structure 22.In the embodiment shown in FIG. 7, the output shaft of the speed reduction assembly 22 is provided with a rotary lock receiver 221, and the turntable 21 is provided with a rotary lock port 213. The rotary latch receiver 221 has a rotary latch groove that allows the rotary latch structure to be rotationally latched therein, and the rotary latch terminal 213 can be rotationally latched and thus align with the rotary latch receiver 221.Reference is further made to FIG. 7 in conjunction with FIG. 5. In one embodiment, the housing 11 of the engine block 10 is also equipped with an installation location 112. The mounting location 112 is formed in the area of the above-mentioned opening 111, and the speed reduction assembly 22 is mounted in the mounting location 112. By configuring an installation location 112 in the area of the opening 111 used for the mounting of the speed reduction assembly 22, the space can be used efficiently, thereby making the overall structure of the food processor more compact. Of course, in other embodiments, the installation point 112 can also be located at other points on the engine block 10, for example on the upper wall of the housing 11 of the engine block 10.In a specific embodiment, the installation site 112 includes at least one first fastening support 113. The first fixing bracket 113 is disposed on the inner wall of the opening 111. The housing of the speed reduction assembly 22 includes a port groove with bracket 222 corresponding to the first mounting bracket 113. The support port 222 engages the first mounting bracket 113 by insertion to allow mounting of the speed reduction assembly 22 to the housing 11 of the engine block 10. In other words, the installation location 112 may be, but is not limited to, a snap-in groove, clips, etc. disposed within the opening 111.In the embodiment shown in FIGS. 5 and 7, the opening 111 is a circular opening. A plurality of first fixing brackets 113 are spaced in the circumferential direction of the opening 111. The number of the terminal grooves with beams 222 corresponds to the number of the first mounting beams 113.Reference is made to FIG. 8. FIG. 8 is a schematic plan view of the structure of the turntable 21 according to an embodiment. In one embodiment, the turntable 21 includes a support surface 211 for supporting a cake. The support surface 211 is provided with a plurality of ring patterns 212 spaced around the center of the support surface 211. On the one hand, the ring patterns 212 can increase the area of the support surface 211, thereby improving the frictional force between the cake and the support surface 211, so that the cake can be placed more stably on the support surface 211 of the turntable. On the other hand, the plurality of ring patterns 212 are spaced around the center of the support surface 211, and the center position of the support surface 211 is located at the center of the plurality of ring patterns 212, whereby the user can more easily find the center position of the support surface 211 and thus place the cake precisely at the center of the support surface 211, thereby ensuring the balance and stability of the cake during rotation.The ring patterns 212 may be annular grooves or annular ribs, without being limited thereto.In one embodiment, reference is made to FIG. 9 in conjunction with FIGS. 2-4. FIG. 9 is a schematic view of the structure of the scraper unit 30 according to an embodiment. The food processor also includes a scraper unit 30, and the scraper unit 30 includes a mounting seat 33 and a scraper assembly 30 a. The mounting seat 33 is connected to the housing 11. The scraper assembly 30a is located above the turntable 21 and is used to spread the cream on the cake. With this configuration, the user does not need to hold a doctor with the hand, but can use the doctor assembly 30 ato spread the cream, which not only saves time and effort but also improves the uniformity of spreading the cream.In a more advanced embodiment, the scraper assembly 30a is movably mounted on the mounting seat 33 and is capable of sliding in a direction toward or away from the turntable 21. With this configuration, the scraper assembly 30 acan be adapted to different size cakes. The user can adjust the position of the scraper assembly 30a depending on the size of the cake, so that the scraper assembly 30a can spread the cream on a cake of appropriate size.The scraper assembly 30 amay be configured to spread the cream on the surface of the cake or spread the cream on the side surface of the cake, or to spread the cream simultaneously on the surface and on the side surface of the cake.In an embodiment, the scraper assembly 30 aincludes a first scraper 31 and a second scraper 32. the first scraper 31 is located above the turntable 21, one end of which is movably connected to the mounting seat 33 in a vertical direction (up / down), while the other end extends toward the center of the turntable 21. Thus, depending on the height of the cake, the first scraper 31 can come into contact with the surface of the cake by moving vertically, making it possible to spread the cream on the surface of the cake. The second scraper 32 is movably connected to the mounting seat 33 in a horizontal direction. The second scraper 32 extends in a vertical direction, is located above the turntable 21 and in the vicinity of the edge of the turntable 21, so the second scraper 32 can come into contact with the side surface of the cake by horizontally displacing depending on the circumferential size of the cake, which makes it possible to spread the cream on the side surface of the cake. In summary, the combined use of the first scraper 31 and the second scraper 32 enables a more uniform spreading of the cream on both the surface and the side surface of the cake to be obtained, thus making the appearance of the cake cleaner and more aesthetic. It should be noted that the vertical (up / down) and horizontal directions may be referred to the horizontal and vertical (up / down) directions illustrated in FIGS. 2 and 9.In one embodiment, reference is made to FIGS. 9 and 10. FIG. 10 is a schematic sectional view of the structure at the joint portion between the first scraper 31 and the fixing seat 33 according to an embodiment.

The scraper unit 30 also includes a first locking member 34. the first locking member 34 is movably mounted in the first adjustment groove 331 and can also be connected to the first attachment hole 311. The first scraper 31 is locked or unlocked with the first adjustment groove 331 by the first locking member 34. In the unlocked state, the first scraper 31 may vertically slide along the first adjustment groove 331. From this description, it is understood that when the first locking member 34 is connected to the first attachment hole 311, the first scraper 31 is locked in the first adjustment groove 331 of the attachment seat 33, thereby ensuring stability in spreading the cream. By manipulating the first locking member 34 (e.g., by rotating, pushing, or tightening / loosening), the locked state of the first scraper 31 can be released. In the unlocked state, the first scraper 31 may vertically slide along the first adjustment groove 331 to adjust its height.In the embodiment illustrated in FIG. 10, the first locking member 34 includes a first operation part 341 intended for the user and a first locking part 342 that passes through the first adjustment groove 331.
