Description

[Detailed description of the invention] [Industrial application field] The invention relates to a cooking machine, in which the cutting blade of a rotary cutter cuts and crushes the material to be cooked, and the juice is squeezed out by squeezing it in a squeezing part. The present invention relates to a structure that improves the separation of the raw material from the cooking material cut by the cutter.

[Conventional technology]

In conventional juicers of this type, the material to be cooked is cut and crushed by a cutter installed on the top surface of a rotating body that rotates around a vertical rotation axis, and the cut and crushed material is formed on the circumferential surface of the rotating body. A juicer that squeezes with a spiral squeezer and processes juice has been developed (Japanese Patent Application No. 58-69575
−194710)).

However, with this type of structure,
When the material to be cooked is cut and pulverized with a cutter, the separated juices are allowed to flow out from the juice outlet formed at the bottom of the cooking chamber.

[Problem that the invention attempts to solve]

In the above-mentioned conventional cooking machine, the juice separated from the material to be cooked remains in the upper part of the cooking chamber mixed with the cutting pieces, and the juice cannot be fed smoothly to the squeezing section, increasing the internal pressure of the cooking chamber. There was a problem with poor processing efficiency.

The present invention has been developed in view of the above-mentioned drawbacks, and when cutting the material to be cooked with a cutter, the juice separated from the material to be cooked is not sent to the squeezing part, but is separated from the cut pieces, and the juice is not coated on the squeezing part. The present invention provides a cooking machine that improves the feeding of cooking ingredients, increases compression efficiency, and improves squeezing efficiency.

[Means for solving problems]

The cooking machine of the present invention has a plate-shaped cutter with cutting blades on the upper surface, a spiral squeezing part on the circumferential surface, and a rotating body that rotates around a vertical axis, and the squeezing part of this rotating body. A cooking case that surrounds a cooking chamber with a small gap and has a juice outlet and a waste outlet that are opened into the cooking chamber and is provided with a main filter; a lid body facing the blade with a small gap and forming a cooking material input opening facing the cutter;
A juice outflow passage is formed on the outer periphery of the cooking case, and a liquid communication portion communicating with the juice outflow passage from the inside of the cooking chamber is provided at a position corresponding to the outer periphery of the cutter of the cooking case. That is.

[Effect]

In the cooking machine of the present invention, the material to be cooked is inputted from the input port, pressed against the cutter to cut the material to be cooked, and sent to the squeezing section, the material to be cooked is squeezed, the raw material is squeezed out, and the raw material is passed through the filter. In a cooking machine in which the residue is filtered by the cutter and flows out from the residue outlet, and the residue is discharged from the residue discharge port, the residue separated from the material to be cooked is formed in the cooking case when cut by the cutter. The juice is made to flow out from the communication part to the juice outflow path, and the juice separated during cutting by a cutter is prevented from being sent to the squeezing part, so that the material to be cooked can be smoothly fed to the squeezing part.

Join.

Next, the lid 31 is placed on the top surface of the main body 1, and the rotating shaft 25 of the rotating body 23 is supported on the bearing 34, and the main body 1 is
When a protrusion provided on the lid 31 is engaged with a locking hole (not shown) on the top surface and the lid 31 is rotated in this state,
The protrusion is engaged with the engagement hole, and the lid body 31 is attached to the main body 1 and the spigot part 1 of the cooking case 12.
5 is fitted with the spigot wall 32 of the lid 31, and in this state, the cooking case 12 and the support case 5 are connected to the lid 3.
1 and the case fitting part 2 of the main body 1, the inner surface of the lid 31 faces the cutting blade 30 of the cutter 33 with a small gap, and the outer periphery of the cutter 28. The liquid communication portion 16 is opposed to the position.

When the electric motor is driven by operating the switch, the rotating body 23 is rotated. In this state, input port 3
5, the material to be cooked is thrown in, the material to be cooked is rotated by a push rod, the material to be cooked is thrown in, and the material to be cooked is pressed by the push rod against the cutter 28 of the rotating body 23. The material to be cooked is cut by the cutting blade 28 of the cutter 28.
The cutter 28 cuts and crushes the cutter, and sends it out toward the outer circumference of the cutter 28. The juice separated from the cooking material cut by the cutter 28 is transferred to the rotating body 2.
3, the juice is scattered in the outer circumferential direction of the rotating body 23, and the juice is discharged from the liquid communication portion 16 to the juice outflow path 18. Then, the youth component flowing out into the youth outlet passage 18 is filtered by a filter 20 and flows down from the discharge port 19 into the youth outlet chamber 8. Further, the material to be cooked cut by the cutter 28 is transferred from the periphery of the rotating body 23 to the cooking case 12.
The food is sequentially fed into the feeding guide portion 13 and introduced between the squeezing portion 27 of the rotating body 23 and the cooking case 12. Next, the material to be cooked fed between the squeezing part 27 of the rotary body 23 and the inner circumferential surface of the cooking case 12 is squeezed to extract the raw material, and the raw material is filtered by the main filter 18 and sent to the raw material outflow chamber. 8 and flows into the youth container 10 from the youth outlet 9 of the youth outflow chamber 8.

Moreover, the pomace of the material to be cooked is sent to the lower part of the cooking chamber 24 and is stored in the dregs storage section 6 through the dregs discharge port of the cooking case 12.

In addition, the juice separated from the cooking material cut by the cutter 33 is scattered by centrifugal force and flows out from the liquid communication portion 16 to the juice outflow chamber 18.
The cut pieces of the cooked material are smoothly fed into the squeezing part 27 without mixing and retaining the raw material and the cut cooking material in the upper part of the squeezing part 27, and the raw material is not mixed, so that cooking is not possible. The pressure in the chamber 24 is increased, increasing the compression of the material and reducing the juice content in the grounds, increasing the squeezing effect.

Furthermore, since the juices flowing out into the juice outflow path 18 are filtered by the filter 20 with the same or smaller meshes as the main filter 22, there is no chance that cut pieces of the material to be cooked will be mixed into the juices. This will improve the quality of use.

[Effect of idea]

According to the present invention, a cutter having a cutting blade is provided on the upper surface of a rotating body rotating in a cooking case, and a liquid communication portion communicating from the cooking chamber to an outside juice outlet is provided at a position corresponding to the outer periphery of the cutter. Since the juice separated when the material to be cooked is cut with the cutter is not sent into the cooking chamber, the cut pieces of the material to be cooked are smoothly fed into the cooking chamber, and the juice is The residue is not sent to the squeezing part of the rotary body, and the squeezing of the material to be cooked in the squeezing part increases, reducing the amount of juice mixed in with the residue, and increasing the squeezing effect.
It can increase the cooking speed.
