Description

[Detailed explanation of the idea] [Industrial application field] The present invention relates to a cooking machine.

More specifically, in a cooking machine that performs cooking by cutting, stirring, scraping, etc. cooking ingredients in a cooking cylinder that stores cooking ingredients, cleaning the cooking cylinder after cooking and removing cooked items from the cooking cylinder. Regarding improvements to the structure related to ease of handling etc.

[Prior Art] Conventionally, this type of cooking machine has, for example, a base part with a built-in driving part such as a motor and a drive connection claw on the top, and an open top part with rotatable blades inside the bottom part. There is known a cooking cylinder which is supported and formed in the shape of a cylinder with a bottom, and a driving connecting groove is attached to the outside of the bottom portion so that the driving connecting claw can be engaged with and removed from the cooking cylinder.

In this conventional cooking machine, first, the cooking cylinder is placed on the stand, and the drive connection claw on the stand engages the drive connection groove of the cooking cylinder to connect the drive so that the drive can be transmitted, and the cooking cylinder is placed on the stand. The cooking cylinder is then locked to prevent the two from coming apart, and then the cooking ingredients are poured into the cooking cylinder from the top, the top of the cooking cylinder is covered with a lid that prevents the cooking ingredients from flying out, and then the blades are rotated by the drive unit. Cooking involves cutting, stirring, scraping, etc. cooking ingredients. After cooking, you can lift the cooking tube from the stand, remove the lid, and tilt it to remove the cooked food, or put your hand, brush, etc. inside the cooking tube to clean it. I will do it.

[Problems to be solved by the invention] In the conventional cooking machine described above, in order to take out the cooked food, it is necessary to lift the cooking tube, remove the lid, and tilt it down one by one, making it troublesome to take out the cooked food. There are problems.

Furthermore, since the blades are supported inside the cooking tube (on the inside of the bottom), the blades get in the way and prevent fingers, brush tips, etc. from reaching the entire inner surface of the cooking tube. The problem is that complete cleaning cannot be performed.

The present invention was made to solve these problems, and its purpose is to provide a cooking machine in which food can be easily taken out and the inside of the cooking tube can be completely cleaned.

[Means for Solving the Problems] In order to achieve the above-mentioned object, the cooking machine according to the present invention includes a cooking tube that stores cooking ingredients, a drive section that supplies driving force for cooking the cooking ingredients, blades of a rotary blade for stirring and slicing and a needle protrusion plate for scraping which are selectively connected to the drive part; a base part that supports the cooking cylinder and the drive part; and a base part that supports the cooking cylinder and the drive part; It consists of a drain plug and a receiving container to be connected, and a drainer that is set inside the cooking cylinder.The cooking cylinder in which cooking ingredients are stored has an open top and a bottom with a drain hole. It is formed into a cylindrical shape, and a drain plug or a receiving container that can be opened and closed is removably connected to the discharge hole, and the cooking tube is directly or indirectly connected to a platform that has a space below the discharge hole for taking out the cooked food. The blades are supported by a drive unit which is movable toward and away from the cooking cylinder and is directly or indirectly movable up and down above the cooking cylinder.

[Function] According to the above-mentioned means, the cooking cylinder is provided with a discharge hole at the bottom, and the cooking cylinder is supported by a stand below the discharge hole that can secure a space for taking out the cooking cylinder. There is no need to perform any troublesome operations, and simply by opening the discharge hole, the cooked food can be discharged to the bottom of the cooking tube and taken out. Therefore, the purpose of providing a cooking machine from which it is easy to take out the cooked food is achieved. Ru.

In addition, since the blades installed inside the cooking cylinder are connected and supported by a drive unit that is provided above the cooking cylinder so that they can be moved toward and away from the cooking cylinder, the entire inside of the cooking cylinder is free from obstacles such as blades. The purpose of providing a cooking machine capable of completely cleaning the inside of the cooking cylinder is achieved because the fingers, brush tips, etc. can effectively reach the entire inner surface of the cooking cylinder.
