Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION Field of Industrial Application This invention relates to an electric juicer for squeezing juice from vegetables and fruits.

Conventional technology This type of juicer is known as
The configuration disclosed in the 5598 publication was adopted, and specifically, it was as shown in FIG.

That is, a fixing plate 2 that can freely move left and right on the outer surface of the main body 1 is attached, and the other side of the fixing plate 2 is attached to a protrusion 5 provided on the outer side of the container lid 4 so as to sandwich the container 3 placed on the main body 1. The container 3 and container lid 4 were fixed onto the main body 1 by hooking them. The left and right fixing plates 2 are connected by a connecting rod 6 inside the main body 1, and since this connecting rod 6 is pressed downward by a spring 7 inside the main body 1, the container lid 4 is fixed by the fixing plate 2. Then,
The container 3 and the container lid 4 were fixed by receiving the force of coming into close contact with the main body 1 side.

However, this time the inventors considered a different form of fixing the container lid and the main body. That is, we devised a structure in which the left and right sides of the container lid are fitted into locking portions that slightly protrude horizontally from the side walls of the main body, and the container can be secured on the main body by being sandwiched between the container lids.

Problems to be Solved by the Invention However, when the container lid is fixed on the main body with such a structure, no force is applied to pull the container lid toward the main body.
If there is a small gap between the main body and the container, or between the container and the container lid, a chattering sound may occur due to vibration, or the container may
There was a problem with the container lid rattling, so an elastic body was attached to the back of the container, the elastic body was compressed by the main body, and the container and container lid were fixed to the main body while being pressed upwards. However, when an elastic body is provided on the back of the container, foreign matter may adhere to or enter the elastic body itself or between the elastic body and the container during container cleaning, and the elastic body may not function properly. Additionally, there was a problem in that the elastic body was misaligned and did not operate properly.

In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the technical means of the present invention is to provide one or more rectangular grooves on the back surface of the container, and to provide a groove with a width wider than the width of the groove. A rectangular elastic body that is slightly small and does not protrude from the groove is attached.

For production The effect of this technical means is as follows.

In other words, when the container is mounted on the main body, the elastic body on the back of the container is compressed by a part of the main body, but since the elastic body is in the groove, the elastic body can be moved up and down without slipping. to operate. In addition, when separating the container lid from the main body and cleaning it, since the elastic body is slightly smaller than the groove and does not protrude beyond the groove, it is possible to accidentally hook a finger on the edge of the elastic body and remove the elastic body from the container. Since the gap between the elastic body and the container is minute, foreign matter will not enter between the elastic body and the container through this gap and the movement of the elastic body will not be inhibited.

Example An embodiment of the present invention will be described below based on the accompanying drawings.

In Figures 1 to 7, 11 is a motor, and the main body 12
It is fixed with screws 14 via a buffer body 13.

Reference numeral 16 denotes an output shaft connected to the rotating shaft of the motor 11, and a substantially cylindrical centrifugal separation cage 16 is detachably attached to the upper end of the output shaft. Reference numeral 17 denotes a substantially cylindrical and comb-shaped filter having a plurality of vertical slits, which is detachably mounted inside the centrifugal separator 16. 18 is a cutter provided at the center bottom of the centrifugal separation basket 16; 19 is a juice container;
A juice outlet 20 is provided in a part of the lower part. 2
Reference numeral 1 denotes a rectangular elastic body provided in rectangular grooves 22 on the left and right sides of the back surface of the container 19. When the container 19 is attached to the main body 12, its center portion contacts the protrusion 23 on the top surface of the main body 12, and when the container 19 is pushed downward, it is compressed. It is now possible to do so. Reference numeral 24 denotes a container lid that is detachably fitted into the container 19 and has a material input port 25 in the center. 26 is a push rod for pressing vegetables, fruits, etc. onto the cutter 18, and 27 is a back plate that covers the lower surface of the main body 12 and has legs 28 attached thereto. Clamps 29 are provided on the left and right sides inside the main body 12, and are regulated in position by the main body 12 and the back plate 27 with a slight backlash in the vertical direction, and are constantly pressed toward the outside of the main body 12 by a spring 3o. The clamp 29 has a convex locking part 31 at its upper end and a finger pressing part 32 below it.
are provided and both protrude to the outside of the main body 12. Reference numeral 33 denotes the left and right lid extensions of the container lid 24, and the clamps 2 are installed below the lid extensions.
A hole 34 that fits into the convex locking portion 31 of No. 9 is provided.

Next, the operation of the configuration of this embodiment will be explained. First, when the container lid 24 is attached after mounting everything other than the container lid 24 on the main body 12, the lower end of the lid extension 33 abuts against the convex locking portion 31 at the upper end of the clamp 29. Thereafter, when the container lid 24 is pressed downward, the convex locking portion 31 of the clamp 29 pressed by the spring 3o is displaced inside the main body 12, as shown in FIG. The center portion of the rectangular elastic body 21 contacts the protrusion 23 on the upper surface of the main body 12 . When the container lid 24 is further pressed, the rectangular elastic body 21 is compressed by the protrusion 23, and when the convex locking portion 31 reaches the position of the hole 34 provided in the lid extension 33, the clamp 29 engages the spring 3o.
2, the convex locking portion 31 fits into the hole 34, and the container 19 and container lid 24 are fixed onto the main body 12.

Here, since the rectangular elastic body 21 is attached in the groove 22 on the back surface of the container 19 with a slight gap a between the side wall of the groove 22 and the side wall of the groove 22, the side wall of the groove 22 acts as a guide and there is no possibility of misalignment. It moves up and down accurately. In addition, the container 19 is
Even when the rectangular elastic body 21 is removed from the groove 22 for cleaning, the center part of the rectangular elastic body 21 does not protrude from the end surface of the groove 22. There is no need to remove it further. In addition, since the gap a is small, foreign objects can fall between the rectangular elastic body 21 and the container 19 through the gap a.
Since it is difficult to enter the space between the rectangular elastic body 21 and the back surface, the movement of the rectangular elastic body 21 is not hindered.

Effects of the Invention The present invention provides a container with one or more rectangular grooves on the back surface of the container, and a rectangular elastic body that is slightly smaller in width than the groove and does not protrude from the groove. As a result, the periphery of the groove acts as a guide and the rectangular elastic body is accurately compressed vertically, and the rectangular elastic body is difficult to come off from the groove, and the gap between the groove and the rectangular elastic body is This is extremely effective as it makes it harder for foreign matter to enter and allows the smooth movement of the elastic body to be maintained. It goes without saying that, as a modification of the rectangular groove and the elastic body, the shape of the groove and the elastic body as shown in FIG.
