Referring to fig. 1, fig. 1 shows a schematic diagram of a food processor according to an exemplary embodiment of the present application. The food processor 10 provided by the embodiment of the application comprises a main machine 11 and a cup assembly 12, wherein the cup assembly 12 is detachably assembled on the main machine 11. The main machine 11 comprises a motor, and the motor can drive a stirring knife in the cup assembly 12 to rotate, stir and crush food materials.

Referring to fig. 2, fig. 2 shows an exploded view of a food processor according to an exemplary embodiment of the present application. The cup assembly 12 includes a cup body 120 and a lid 122, wherein the cup body 120 includes a food material accommodating cavity, and the lid 122 covers the mouth of the cup body 120. The cup assembly 12 may further include a sealing ring 124 (see fig. 5), and the cup 120 and the lid 122 are sealed by the sealing ring 124 to prevent the food material from overflowing.

The cup 120 and the cup 122 are provided with matching clamping structures 126, and the clamping structures 126 are in an engaged state during the heating process of the food processor 10, so that the cup 120 and the cup cover 122 can be prevented from being separated.

Referring to fig. 3 and 4, fig. 3 is a sectional view showing a cup lid in a storage state in an embodiment of the present application; FIG. 4 shows a cross-sectional view of the cup lid in an expanded state in an embodiment of the present application. The lid 122 has an expanded state in which the lid 122 includes a cavity 122b and a stowed state in which the cavity 122b is in communication with the food material receiving cavity.

As can be seen from the above description, the cavity 122b can be used as an extension space of the food material accommodating cavity, and even when the cup body 120 has a small volume, the volume of the food material accommodating cavity can be increased through the cavity 122b formed after the cup cover 122 is unfolded, so as to increase the ability of the food processor 10 to accommodate food materials.

Referring to fig. 5 and 6, fig. 5 is a schematic view showing a cup lid in a storage state in an embodiment of the present application; FIG. 6 is a schematic view of the cup lid in an expanded state in an embodiment of the present application. In one example, the cap 122 includes a retractable portion 1220, the retractable portion 1220 is retracted and extended, and the space enclosed by the extended portion 1220 can be used as a cavity 122b communicated with the food material accommodating cavity. This scheme simple structure, it is more convenient to accomodate the conversion of state and expansion state.

Specifically, lid 122 includes lid base 1222, top cover 1223, and a telescoping portion 1220, where lid base 1222 is adapted to engage cup 120 and telescoping portion 1220 is disposed between lid base 1222 and top cover 1223.

A seal ring 124 may be disposed on the exterior of lid base 1222 to seal cup 120 to lid 122. Lid base 1222 also includes an annular flange 1222a for overlapping the upper rim of cup 120 and a handle 1222b for covering the mouth of cup 120. The handle 1222b is convenient for the user to hold, preventing scald. Clamping structure 126 is disposed on cup 120 and lid base 1222, and clamping structure 126 includes a clamping hole and a clamping protrusion, and when lid 122 is screwed on cup 120, the clamping protrusion is screwed into the clamping hole. In this example, the card hole is surrounded by a rib 1260 of a semi-surrounding structure.

Telescoping portion 1220 is connected between cup lid base 1222 and cap 1223, telescoping portion 1220 comprising at least two layers of annular sleeves 1224, each annular sleeve 1224 being movably connected. In the storage state, the annular sleeves 1224 are sequentially sleeved, and in the expansion state, the annular sleeves 1224 are sequentially connected end to end, and the space surrounded by the annular sleeves 1224 jointly forms a cavity communicated with the food material accommodating cavity. In this solution, the structure of the annular sleeve 1224 is convenient for the storage and deployment, and is beneficial to the stability of the structure of the telescopic portion 1220.

In the example shown in fig. 3 and 6, the annulus 1224 is provided with four, and the size of the four annuli 1224 decreases from the outside to the inside in order to ensure that the smaller annulus 1224 fits within the larger annulus 1224 when stowed. The annular sleeve 1224 is not limited in shape and may be circular, square, polygonal, etc.

Referring again to fig. 4, the cap 122 also includes position retainers 1226, and each of the annular sleeves 1224 may be retained in the expanded and stowed states by the position retainers 1226. The position retention portion 1226 may ensure that the annular sleeve 1224 is reliably in the deployed and stowed positions, avoiding self-stowing or self-deploying during use.

In one example, the position maintaining portion 1226 includes an annular projection provided on an outer wall of each of the annular sleeves 1224, and the outer annular sleeve 1224 is held relatively fixed to the outer annular sleeve 1224 by a frictional force therebetween, the frictional force causing the adjacent annular sleeves 1224 to remain relatively fixed to each other in the deployed state and the stowed state. In this embodiment, the position holding portion 1226 has a simple structure, and is convenient for the expansion and contraction operation of each of the annular sleeves 1224.

Cup base 1222 is cylindrical in configuration, and an annular sleeve 1224 attached to the bottom-most end of cup base 1222 is held in place relative to cup base 1222 by friction between the annular projection and cup base 1222.

Further, in order to reduce the difficulty of manufacturing the annular protrusion and ensure proper friction between the annular protrusion and the outer annular sleeve 1224, the annular protrusion is made of a sealing material, and the sealing material is a flexible material, such as rubber, asbestos, or the like. After the arrangement, in the process of extending and retracting the telescopic portion 1220, the annular protrusions can deform under the action of friction force, so that the phenomenon that the telescopic portion 1220 cannot stretch out and retract due to the fact that a gap between each two adjacent annular sleeves 1224 is blocked when being small is avoided. Moreover, the annular bulge made of flexible materials can reduce the manufacturing precision of the annular bulge.

The annular sleeve 1224 includes an annular groove with an annular projection disposed within the annular groove. The annular groove may reduce the risk of disengagement of the annular projection from the annular sleeve 1224.

Still further, the annuli 1224 further include a position-defining flange 1228, and under tensile and compressive forces, adjacent annuli 1224 abut one another via the position-defining flange 1228 to define a relative position to one another. The position-defining flanges 1228 include an outer flange 1228a and an inner flange 1228b, wherein the outer flange 1228a projects outwardly from the outer wall of the annular sleeves 1224, the inner flange 1228b projects inwardly from the inner wall of the annular sleeves 1224, and under tensile force, two adjacent annular sleeves 1224 abut against each other via the inner flange 1228b, and under compressive force, two adjacent annular sleeves 1224 abut against each other via the outer flange 1228 a.

As shown in fig. 3, the inner annulus 1224 overlaps the outer annulus 1224 via an outer flange 1228a in the stowed condition and the inner annulus 1224 overlaps the outer annulus 1224 via an inner flange 1228b in the deployed condition, as shown in fig. 4, to ensure that the annuli 1224 define a relative position to one another in the stowed and deployed conditions.

In the example shown in fig. 3 and 4, an annular flange 1228 may be provided at the top of each annular sleeve 1224, and in the stowed condition, the inner annular sleeve 1224 may be received as much as possible within the outer annular sleeve 1224 to reduce the volume of the cap 122 in the stowed condition and maintain the compact configuration of the cap 122 when stowed. The received state of each of the annular sleeves 1224 is shown in fig. 3 and 5.

The annular flange 1228 may be attached to the inner annular sleeve 1224 by ultrasonic welding or by a threaded connection after the inner annular sleeve 1224 is inserted into the outer annular sleeve 1224.

Referring to fig. 7, the cap 122 includes a feeding hole 122a and a feeding cap 1221 covering the feeding hole 122 a. The feeding hole 122a is formed in the top cover 1223, and the feeding hole 122a is communicated with the food material accommodating cavity. The top cover 1223 has a cylindrical structure, and the material feeding hole 122a is provided in the top wall of the top cover 1223. The feeding hole 122a can enable a user to add food materials to the food material accommodating cavity in the process of cooking the food materials without uncovering the cup cover 122.

When the cup cover 122 provided by the application is in the storage state, a small amount of food materials can be processed, and when the cup cover 122 is in the unfolding state, more food materials can be processed. In addition, in the processing process, the size of the capacity of the cavity of the cup cover 122 can be adjusted by applying tension or pressure to the top cover 1223, so as to meet the processing requirements of different amounts of food materials.

As another example, referring to fig. 8-11, the retractable portion 1220 includes at least two layers of annular sleeves 1224, each of the annular sleeves 1224 is movably connected, in the retracted state, each of the annular sleeves 1224 is connected end to end in sequence, and in the deployed state, each of the annular sleeves 1224 is sleeved in sequence, wherein a space surrounded by the innermost annular sleeve 1224 forms the cavity 122 b.

In the example shown in fig. 8 to 11, the limiting flange 1228 includes an outer flange 1228a and an inner flange 1228b, and under the tensile force, the adjacent two of the annular sleeves 1224 abut against each other through the outer flange 1228a, and under the compressive force, the adjacent two of the annular sleeves 1224 abut against each other through the inner flange 1228 b. Also, an outboard flange 1228a and an inboard flange 1228b are provided at the bottom of the annular sleeve 1224.

The position-defining flange 1228 has the same technical effects as the position-defining flange 1228 of fig. 3-4, and will not be described herein.

Fig. 3-11 illustrate schematic views of the cap 122 including a retractable portion 1220, but embodiments for providing the cap 122 with an extended state and a retracted state are not limited to those shown in fig. 3-11.

For another example, referring to fig. 12 to 15, the cup lid 122 includes a folding portion 20, a state when the folding portion 20 is folded is a storage state, a state after the folding portion 20 is opened is an unfolding state, and a space surrounded by the folding portion 20 after the folding portion 20 is opened is a cavity 122b communicated with the food material accommodating cavity. The folded portion 20 may be made of a deformable and flexible material, such as copper foil, aluminum foil, or the like.

In the example shown in fig. 12 to 15, the folded portion 20 includes a flexible cylindrical structure that can be folded and unfolded in the axial direction of itself. Specifically, the flexible tubular structure includes a plurality of deformable portions 200 and a plurality of non-deformable portions 202, the deformable portions 200 being connected between the two non-deformable portions 202. The folding portion 20 is folded or unfolded by the deformation of the deformable portion 200.

In another example, the lid 122 may include an elastic expansion portion that expands under the action of the air pressure in the cup body 120, the elastic expansion portion may be in an unfolded state after being expanded, and a space surrounded by the expanded elastic expansion portion may serve as a cavity 122b communicated with the food material accommodating cavity.
