Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION Field of Industrial Application The present invention relates to a cooking machine for general household use that processes juice by crushing and squeezing materials.

Structure of the conventional example and its problems Figure 1 shows a conventional compressor-throttle 9-type juicer. A squeeze container 5 with 4
is included in. The end opening of this squeeze container 6 is closed by a removable lid 6. The squeezed container 5 is detachably attached to the squeezed container support portion 8 of the main body 7.

Further, the shaft 9 of the screw 1 is driven by an electric motor within the main body 7 via a reduction gear and a coupling. 1o is a push rod, and 11 is a juice receiver.

In this juicer, leafy vegetables (parsley, Japanese cucumber, etc.), which are materials suitable for the squeezing method, are put into the input port 3 and pressed against the screw 1 with the push rod 10. The material is wound up by the screw 1 and is transferred to the tip 12 while being pulverized in the gap between the squeeze container 6 and the screw 1. Each time the material is introduced, the crushed material is transferred to the tip 1.
2, the material is pressed here and separated into juice components and lees, and only the juice components are extracted through a filter 4.

With this configuration, the gap between the screw 1 and the squeezing container 6 is smaller than the thickness of the leaves of leafy vegetables, so that the leaves are crushed more finely than in conventional centrifugal juicers.

Moreover, since the pressure at which the material is transferred by the screw 1 is greater than that in the centrifugal separation method, this method is more suitable for extracting juice from leafy vegetables than the centrifugal separation method.

However, in this squeeze υ type juicer,
Furthermore, there is a strong demand for efficient extraction of juice.

Purpose of the Invention The cooking machine of the present invention satisfies such conventional demands, and is capable of efficiently and quickly squeezing leafy vegetables by compressing ingredients from two directions and bringing the ingredients together. This is how it was done.

Structure of the Invention In order to achieve the above object, the cooking machine of the present invention has a spiral blade that transports the material while rolling it up and crushing it, and a spiral blade that transports the material in the opposite direction to the blade. The device is equipped with a screw provided with a body and a squeeze container containing the screw, and the material is compressed from two directions by both wing bodies of the screw, and the materials are rubbed together to efficiently and quickly extract leaf vegetables. It's like extracting the juice.

DESCRIPTION OF EMBODIMENTS An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to FIGS. 2 and 3. In the figure, 20 is the main body of the device, 21 is the main body 2
0 is a motor, 22 is an output shaft, 23 is a generally cylindrical screw with approximately the same diameter as a whole, and a spiral wing body 24 that functions to transport the material downward while pulverizing it. A spiral wing body 25 is provided which acts to move the air in the opposite direction to the wing body 24, and a compressing portion 26 is provided at an intermediate portion between the spiral wing body 24 and the spiral wing body 25. A plurality of grooves 27 are provided on the outer periphery of the compressed portion 26 in the axial direction of the screw 23. Further, a shaft hole 28 is provided in the lower part of the screw 23, and a motor 21 built in the main body 20 is connected to the shaft hole 28.
, is driven via the output shaft 22 of the speed reducer. 29 is a squeeze container having a material input port 30 and a filter 31; 32
is a push rod.

In this configuration, when material is input from the material input port 3o and pushed by the push rod 32, the material is fed into the pressing section 26 by the spiral wing body 24, and the material passing through the pressing section 26 is pushed in the opposite direction. It is sent in the opposite direction by the spiral wing body 26. Therefore, since the pulverized materials are ground together, the materials are finely pulverized and the juice component can be efficiently separated.

Next, juice processing using the screw 23 will be explained. Leafy vegetables such as parsley and Japanese cucumber are put in through the material input port 3o and pressed against the screw 23 with the push rod 32. This material is rolled up by the rotating spiral wing body 24, and is drawn into the squeezing container 29 and the screw 230. This crushed material is transported downward while being crushed in the gap.
It is fed into the pressing section 26. In this case, since the pressing section 26 is approximately the same size as the outer diameter of the spiral wing body 24 and is provided in series in the material transfer direction, the material moves smoothly and a large amount of material can be transferred in a short time. It is configured so that it can be sent to the compression section 26. In addition, since the diameter of the pressing section 26 can be made relatively small, the load on the motor is also reduced6. The shaped wing body 25 is the compressing part 26
are provided in series in the direction of material transfer, and
This spiral wing body 26 is in the opposite direction to the spiral wing body 24 and has the function of transporting the material in the opposite direction, so the crushed material is transported in the pressing section 26 by the material fed from both directions. Compressed. Further, in the pressing section 26, the crushed material is transferred to spiral wing bodies 24 and 26 in different conveying directions.
In addition, by grinding the ingredients together, the juice is finely ground compared to conventional compressor-squeezing juicers, making it easier to separate the juice. That is, in the compression section 26,
The material is in a state where the fibers and juice are mostly mixed freely, and when pressure is applied to the spiral blades 24 and 26, only the juice is separated through the filter 31. The remaining fibrous material is extruded as squeezing waste through the small holes 33 of the squeezing container 29 facing the squeezing part 26. At this time, a plurality of grooves 2 provided in the pressing part 26
7 has the effect of quickly moving the drawing waste to the small hole 33 and efficiently discharging the drawing waste.

As explained above, the screw 23 grinds the material to a finer powder than the conventional squeezer type juicer, and compresses this crushed material from two directions, so it is suitable for juice processing. can be done very efficiently.

Note that the cooking machine of the present invention is not limited to the vertical type as shown in Fig. 2, and there is no problem even if the axial direction of the screw is horizontal as in the conventional example. For example, the configuration is as shown in FIG. In Figure 4, the same parts as in Figures 2 and 3 are designated by the same symbols\
0 Effects of the Invention As is clear from the above embodiments, the cooking machine of the present invention has a spiral blade body that transports the material while rolling it up and crushing it, and a spiral blade body that transports the material in the opposite direction to the blade body. The spiral blade compresses the material from two directions and grinds the materials together, making it possible to extract the juice extremely efficiently.
