Description

Vacuum blender equipped with foreign object holder { VACUUM BLENDER }

The present invention relates to a vacuum blender equipped with a foreign object receiving member, and in particular, during operation of the vacuum blender, food fines or moisture are prevented from flowing back into the vacuum pump, while vacuuming and grinding work are performed simultaneously to reduce operating time. It relates to a vacuum blender equipped with a foreign object receiving member capable of

A blender (mixer) is one of the most used electrical appliances at home today. Foods such as fruits, vegetables, grains, etc. are put inside the mixer container, and the food is blended using a rotary blade rotatably installed at the bottom of the storage container. It is finely ground so that it can be consumed.

A typical blender puts food to be pulverized into a storage container, closes the lid, and rotates a rotary blade by a motor that rotates at high speed. .

For example, when fruits such as bananas and tomatoes are put in a blender and crushed, a large amount of bubbles are generated at the top of the fruit juice.

This not only reduces the taste and texture when drinking fruit juice, but also means that the fruit fiber has already been oxidized during the crushing process, and thus a significant portion of nutrients are destroyed.

In addition, when food is to be stored without being consumed immediately after grinding, when stored in a state exposed to the air, the oxidation process proceeds more rapidly, which accelerates the destruction of fiber and nutrients, and the color is discolored, reducing freshness, and air A layer separation occurs between the food and the food.

As such, there was a problem that it was difficult to store the food pulverized by the blender for a long period of time unless eaten immediately.

In order to solve this problem, vacuum blenders having various structures have been developed and released recently.

In a vacuum blender, when liquid food is put into a grinding container and pulverized, food fines are introduced into the vacuum pump by a vacuum suction force, and the vacuum pump and pressure sensor often fail.

In order to prevent this, most products calculate the pressure inside the grinding container in advance without a pressure sensor and control it with time, so that the vacuum time is uniformly set regardless of the amount of content.

In addition, the conventional vacuum blender cannot fully fill the inside of the grinding vessel with food (liquid, etc.) due to the above problems, and only about 40% of the size of the grinding vessel is put and ground, so the efficiency of the vacuum blender is reduced. .

In order to improve the inflow problem of fines, in Patent Publication No. 10-2019-0019690, etc., a backflow prevention means (foreign collection member, etc.) is installed on the lower part of the container cover to prevent fines from flowing back into the vacuum pump. is appearing

However, when the backflow prevention means is mounted on the lower part of the container cover, there is a limit to the size, so the amount to accommodate the fines is small, and it is not easy to assemble. It was not easy, so mold was generated inside the vacuum hose when used for a long time, resulting in many hygiene problems.

In addition, when the vacuum work inside the grinding container and the grinding work are performed together, moisture or fine grains are introduced into the vacuum pump and the pressure sensor by the vacuum pressure of the pulverized fine materials, resulting in failure of the vacuum pump and pressure sensor. In order to prevent this, in the prior art, a vacuum operation inside the grinding container is first performed by a vacuum pump, and then a grinding operation by a blade is performed after the vacuum operation.

Therefore, in the prior art, since the vacuum operation time and the grinding operation time are separately configured, the operation time of the vacuum blender becomes long, and thus, there are many complaints from consumers that the operation time of the vacuum blender is long.

In addition, in the prior art in which the foreign object receiving member is mounted, since a hole communicating with the inside of the foreign object receiving member is formed on the inner circumferential surface of the mounting hole in which the foreign object receiving member is mounted, there is difficulty in cleaning.

The other end 65 of the connection passage formed on the upper part of the communication member 40 is exposed to the outside while being opened upward.

In the drawing of this embodiment, the other end of the connection passage 60 is opened upward through the communication member 40 through the injection molding.

In some cases, the other end 65 of the connection passage may be formed in a lateral direction from the top of the communication member 40, and any form that allows air to pass through may be used.

A flange portion 53 protruding in an outer circumferential direction is formed on the foreign object receiving member 50 .

The flange portion 53 may protrude in only one direction from the outer surface of the foreign object receiving member 50, but as in the present embodiment, the flange portion 53 is formed on the outer surface of the foreign object receiving member 50. It is preferable to protrude outward from the entire circumference.

In a state in which the foreign object receiving member 50 is mounted on the mounting hole 41, the flange portion 53 covers the other end 65 of the connection passage and is formed on the foreign object receiving member 50. The two communication holes 55 communicate with the other end 65 of the connection passage.

A lower gasket 71 is disposed between the lower portion of the foreign object receiving member 50 and the lower inner surface of the mounting hole 41, and the foreign object receiving member 50 is mounted on the mounting hole 41. In , the lower gasket 71 seals the gap between the lower outer circumferential surface of the foreign object receiving member 50 and the lower inner surface of the mounting hole 41 from the outside.

The lower gasket 71 may further protrude downward and come into close contact with the upper surface of the grinding container 20 .

In addition, an upper gasket 72 is disposed in the gap between the upper portion of the foreign object receiving member 50 and the upper portion of the communication member 40, and the foreign object receiving member 50 is mounted in the mounting hole 41. In this state, the upper gasket 72 seals the gap between the outer circumferential surface of the upper portion of the foreign object receiving member 50 and the upper portion of the communication member 40 from the outside.

In this embodiment, the upper gasket 72 is disposed between the flange portion 53 covering the upper portion of the communication member 40 and the upper surface of the communication member 40, and the other end 65 of the connection passage The inflow and outflow of outside air was blocked by blocking the communication between the outside and the outside.

With the lower gasket 71 and the upper gasket 72, in a state where the foreign object receiving member 50 is mounted in the mounting hole 41, the outer surface of the foreign object receiving member 50 and the mounting hole ( A chamber passage 75 sealed from the outside is formed between the inner circumferential surfaces of 41).

Of course, depending on the case, the chamber flow path 75 changes the location and presence of the lower gasket 71 and the upper gasket 72, and the outer surface of the foreign object receiving member 50 and the mounting hole 41 It may be variously formed in a closed structure from the outside between the inner circumferential surfaces.

The chamber passage 75 communicates with the second communication hole 55 and the other end 65 of the connection passage.

Therefore, when the foreign object receiving member 50 is mounted on the mounting hole 41 and the flange part 53 covers the other end 65 of the connection passage, the connection disposed below the flange part 53 The other end 65 of the passage communicates with the second communication hole 55 through the chamber passage 75 while being blocked from the outside.

As described above, the second communication hole 55 and the other end 65 of the connection passage may be directly contacted and communicated with each other, but in this case, the fine objects contained in the foreign object receiving member 50 55), there may be a problem of immediately moving to the other end 65 of the connection passage.

However, unlike the present invention, the second communication hole 55 and the other end 65 of the connection passage do not directly contact and communicate, but are formed between the outer circumferential surface of the foreign object receiving member 50 and the inner circumferential surface of the mounting hole 41. The chamber is indirectly communicated through the sealed chamber passage 75, so that the foreign object receiving member 50 is bent in various directions when the fine objects accommodated inside the second communication hole 55 pass through the chamber Since it moves through the flow path 75, it is possible to further block the movement of fine materials to the other end 65 of the connection flow path, and the fine materials introduced into the chamber flow path 75 stay in the chamber flow path 75 to prevent the fines from moving. It may be prevented from moving to the other end 65 of the connection passage.

In addition, since the gap between the chamber passages 75 is sufficient to move only air, it is okay to make the gap very small. It has the effect of blocking things further.

In addition, in the present invention, since the second communication hole 55 and the other end 65 of the connection passage are connected through the ring-shaped chamber passage 75, the second communication hole 55 and the connection passage Even if the other end 65 of the part does not exactly contact and fit, it can be communicated through the chamber passage 75, so that the manufacturing and assembling of the parts are easy.

In order to make communication between the other end 65 of the connection passage and the second communication hole 55 better, the foreign object receiving member 50 is mounted on the mounting hole 41 and the flange part 53 When covers the other end 65 of the connection passage, a movement gap is formed between the lower surface of the flange portion 53 and the upper surface of the communication member 40.

Accordingly, the other end 65 of the connection passage is more easily communicated with the second communication hole 55 through the movement gap.

In this embodiment, a moving groove 56 concave upward is formed on the lower surface of the flange part 53, and the moving groove 56 is in a state where the flange part 53 covers the other end of the communication member 40. ) forms the moving gap.

The movable groove 56 is formed in a ring shape along the lower surface of the flange portion 53 so that the movable groove 56 can communicate with the other end of the communication member 40 in any direction.

In some cases, the lower surface of the flange portion 53 of the moving groove 56 may be concave downward from the upper surface of the communication member 40 .

In addition, a hollow protrusion 57 is protruded upward from the first communication hole 54 inside the foreign object receiving member 50 .

The hollow protrusion 57 is formed of a tube or the like and may be detachably mounted inside the foreign object receiving member 50 while varying its length.

Fines introduced into the container through the first communication hole 54 and the hollow protrusion 57 are transferred to the container cover 30 through the first communication hole 54 due to the height of the hollow protrusion 57. It is prevented from leaking into the upper surface of the ) or the inside of the grinding container 20.

On the other hand, the communication member 40 may be mounted to be lifted up and down with respect to the main body 10, or may be mounted to be rotatable in the up and down direction based on the hinge point.

In the drawing of this embodiment, the communication member 40 is mounted rotatably in the vertical direction based on the hinge point.

At this time, the second communication hole 55 formed in the foreign object receiving member 50 is formed in a direction opposite to the hinge point with respect to the vertical center line of the foreign object receiving member 50 .

That is, the second communication hole 55 is formed not in a direction close to the hinge point but in a far position.

As a result, as shown in FIG. 5 , when the communication member 40 is rotated upward, the fine objects accommodated in the receiving portion of the foreign object receiving member 50 pass through the second communication hole 55 . Direct discharge to the connection passage 60 can be prevented.

When the second communication hole 55 is formed close to the hinge point, when the communication member 40 is rotated upward, the fine objects accommodated in the receiving portion of the foreign object receiving member 50 are affected by gravity. is introduced into the connection passage 60 through the second communication hole 55, which eventually flows into the vacuum pump 12 and causes failure of the vacuum pump 12.

However, in the present invention, since the second communication hole 55 is formed far from the hinge point, that is, in a direction opposite to the hinge point based on the vertical center line of the foreign object receiving member 50, the communication member 40 ) may be rotated upward, it is possible to effectively block fine objects accommodated in the receiving portion of the foreign object receiving member 50 from flowing into the connection passage 60 through the second communication hole 55 .

In addition, when there is no hollow protrusion 57 inside the foreign object receiving member 50, the fines accommodated in the foreign object receiving member 50 pass through the first communication hole 54 to the grinding container 20. In the case of a structure that falls to the top or inside, when different foods are pulverized, fines (residues) of the food existing in the foreign object receiving member 50 fall into the pulverizer 20 and can be mixed with each other. Therefore, in the case of pulverizing different foods, it is inconvenient to use the foreign object receiving member 50 after cleaning it every time.

However, in the present invention, since the hollow protrusion 57 is formed and the second communication hole 55 is formed at a position far from the hinge point with respect to the vertical center line of the foreign object receiving member 50, When crushing different foods, if fines (residues) of the food existing in the foreign object receiving member 50 are accumulated at a position lower than the upper end of the hollow protrusion 57, the communication member ( 40) can be prevented from falling into the grinding container 20 even when the foreign object receiving member 50 is rotated in the up and down direction several times.

Due to this, the present invention can give convenience to the user's cleaning and management work because the foreign object receiving member 50 does not have to be cleaned every time even if different foods are crushed, but only needs to be cleaned when the fine objects are filled to a certain height.

If fines accommodated in the foreign object receiving member 50 are lower than the upper end of the hollow protrusion 57, the fines flow out into the second communication hole even if the communication member 40 is rotated in the vertical direction and used several times. can prevent it from happening.

In addition, it is preferable that the foreign object receiving member 50 is made of a transparent material so that the user can easily see the amount of fine objects accommodated in the foreign object receiving member 50 .

As described above, in the present invention, since the other end 65 of the connection passage is exposed to the outside through the upper surface of the communication member 40 instead of the inside of the mounting hole 41, the foreign object receiving member 50 is used as the communication member. When separated from the mounting hole 41 of (40), the other end 65 of the connection passage is well exposed to the outside, so that the other end 65 of the connection passage can be cleaned more easily, and the foreign object receiving member 50 and The movement of fine objects through the connection passage 60 can also be more easily grasped.

In addition, by using the vacuum chamber 75 , fine water flowing into the foreign object receiving member 50 may be more effectively blocked from flowing into the vacuum pump 12 through the connection passage 60 .

According to the structure described above, since fines generated when food is crushed are accommodated in the foreign object receiving member 50, it is possible to prevent fines from entering the vacuum pump 12.

In addition, even if the vacuum operation and the crushing operation are performed simultaneously, no problem occurs because the foreign object receiving member 50 accommodates the fine objects, and thus the operation time of the vacuum blender can be drastically reduced.

In addition, in the present invention, since the foreign object receiving member 50 is detachably mounted to the communication member 40, washing and cleaning of the foreign object receiving member 50 is easy.

In addition, since the other end 65 of the connection passage communicating with the second communication hole 55 of the foreign object receiving member 50 is exposed to the outside from the upper part of the communication member 40, cleaning is easier. do.

On the other hand, a blocking wall 58 protruding downward from the top is formed on the inside of the foreign object receiving member 50 .

In this embodiment, the blocking wall 58 protrudes downward from the inner upper portion of the upper foreign object receiver 52 .

The blocking wall 58 protrudes further downward from the upper end of the lower foreign object receiver 51, and is disposed adjacent to the second communication hole 55 in a downward direction than the second communication hole 55. is more protruding.

By forming the blocking wall 58, it is possible to further prevent the fine objects contained in the foreign object receiving member 50 from passing into the second communication hole 55 by the vacuum suction force.
