DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION Field of Industrial Application The present invention relates to an electric cooker for cooking such as grated radish and grated yam, which is mainly used in general households.

Conventional structure and problems thereof Conventionally, as shown in Fig. 1, this type of electric cooker has a main body with a protruding rotating shaft 1 rotated by an electric motor, and a main body with a central axis of the rotating shaft 1. A container 3 having a hollow wall 2 formed therein is attached thereto, and an oroshi cutter 4 is attached so as to fit onto the rotating shaft 1. When cooking, the object to be cut 5 is placed on the top surface of the Oroshi cutter 4, the container lid covering the opening of the container 3 is attached, and the switch that drives the electric motor is turned on. 1, the Oroshi cutter 4 fitted with the rotating shaft 1 rotates, and the workpiece 5 is cut. When the object to be cut is particularly a large amount of highly viscous material such as yam, the cut object 7 climbs over the upper surface 8 of the hollow wall 2 in the center of the container 3 located lower than the oroshi cutter 4, and the hollow wall 2 There was a problem that the water leaked out of the container 3 through the inside.

Purpose of the Invention The present invention takes into account the above-mentioned conventional problems, and can prevent the cuttings accumulated in the container from flowing out of the container. To provide an electric cooker that can notify when it is full.

Structure of the Invention In order to achieve the above-mentioned object, the present invention includes a container in which an Oroshi cutter is rotatably driven by an electric motor, a container lid that covers the opening of the container, and a cutter rotation axis centered on the lower surface of the Oroshi cutter. a hole is formed in the oroshi cutter adjacent to the outer periphery of the annular wall, the hole is concentric with the annular wall formed on the lower surface of the oroshi cutter, and has an inner diameter slightly larger than the outer diameter of the annular wall;
In addition, a cylindrical wall extending above the lower end of the annular wall is formed from the inner bottom surface of the container to the vicinity of the lower surface of the oroshi cutter. According to this configuration, for example, when cutting a yam into grated yam, if the storage space for cuttings in the container below the oroshi cutter becomes full of cut objects, the cut objects will move from the lower surface of the oroshi cutter to the upper surface of the oroshi cutter than through the hole provided in the oroshi cutter. A cycle occurs in which the ejected cuttings fall from outside the outer circumference of the Oroshi cutter into the container below the cutter, and are again ejected upward from the bottom of the cutter through the Oroshi cutter hole, causing the cuttings to ride up the hollow wall in the center of the container. It was possible to prevent the cuttings from flowing out of the container, and due to the change in the phenomenon that the cuttings were ejected from below the Oroshicutter to the top, the cuttings storage space in the container below the Oroshicutter became full of cuttings. can be made known.

DESCRIPTION OF EMBODIMENTS An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. In FIGS. 2 to 5, reference numeral 11 denotes an electric motor, which is attached to the chassis 12 with screws 13. The chassis 12 is attached to the main body 14 with a cushion rubber 15 and screws 16. 17 is a shaft of the electric motor 11, and a pinion 18 is attached to the shaft 17. 19 is an output gear driven by the pinion 18. The output gear 19 is attached to a main shaft 20, and the main shaft 20 is attached to the chassis 12 via an oilless bearing 21. A connector 22 is attached to the tip of the main shaft 20, and a cutter mount 23 is detachably attached to the connector 22, and the upper part of the connector 22 fits into a groove provided in the cutter mount 23 to connect the electric motor. 11 forces are transmitted. A disk-shaped Oroshi cutter 24 is attached to the cutter mount 23. 25 is a container which can be attached to and detached from the main body 14. A container lid 26 is detachably attached to the container 25 and has a protrusion 27 on the outside. 28 is a push button which is moved downward by a projection 27 provided on the container lid 26 to operate a switch 29 leading to the electric motor 11. 30 is push button 2
This is the spring that pushes up 8. 31 is a cover that covers the switch part, 32 is a back plate of the main body, and 33 is a leg. 34 is a hollow wall provided at the center of the inner bottom of the container 25, through which the connector 22 passes. 35 is an annular wall formed on the lower surface of the oroshi cutter 24 and concentric with the hollow wall. A hole 36 is formed in the oroshi cutter 24 near the outer periphery of an annular wall 35. Reference numeral 37 denotes a cylindrical wall provided from the inner bottom surface of the container 25, whose inner diameter is slightly larger than the annular wall 35, and whose upper surface extends to the vicinity of the hole 36 provided in the oroshi cutter 24.

Next, the operation and operation of the electric cooker will be explained. A container 25 is attached to the main body 14, and a cutter mounting base 23 to which an Oroshi cutter 24 is attached is fitted into a connector 22. Next, the object to be cut A is put into the leaf container 25 from above, and the container lid 26 is inserted into the container 2.
5, when the container 26 is pushed down by external force, the projection 27 provided on the container lid 26 pushes down the push button 28 and turns on the switch 29. Then, the electric motor 11 operates and Oroshikutter 2
4 rotates and the object to be cut is cut. After cutting is completed, when the external force pushing down the container lid 26 is removed, the spring 30 pushes up the push button 28 and the switch 29 is turned off. On the other hand, the cut object A of the workpiece A cut by the Oroshi cutter 24 is blown toward the outer circumference of the Oroshi cutter 24 due to the centrifugal force generated by the rotation of the Oroshi cutter 24, and is lowered from the Oroshi cutter 24 through the gap 38 between the outer circumference of the Oroshi cutter 24 and the container 25. It falls into the container 25 and collects therein. The cuttings collected in the container 25 below the Oroshi cutter 24 climb over the upper surface of the cylindrical wall 37 provided on the container 25, enter through the gap 39 between the annular wall 35 provided below the Oroshi cutter 24 and the cylindrical wall, and enter the container 25. hollow wall 34
Although it tries to flow out of the container 25, the annular wall 3
Since the gap 39 between 5 and the cylindrical wall 37 is small,
The cutting material does not easily enter the gap 39 due to the viscous resistance of the cutting material. Furthermore, as the amount of cut objects falling downward from the Oroshi cutter 25 increases, the internal pressure of the cut objects in the Oroshi cutter 25 increases, making it easier for the cut objects to enter the gap 39; Because the pressure is low, the cutting material is ejected from the hole 36 provided in the Oroshi cutter 24 from the lower surface to the upper surface of the Oroshi cutter 24 than from the lower surface of the Oroshi cutter 24 because the pressure is low. The spouted cuttings fall again into the container 25 below the Oroshi cutter 24 through the gap 38 between the outer periphery of the Oroshi cutter 24 and the container 25, and then fall into the container 25 below the Oroshi cutter 24.
6, a circulation occurs in which the cut material is ejected onto the upper surface of the Oroshi cutter 24, and the cut material is ejected from the hollow wall 34 of the container 25.
It is possible to prevent the liquid from climbing over the upper surface and flowing out of the container 25. Also, the cutting object is Oroshikutter 2.
The change in the phenomenon of spouting from the lower surface to the upper surface side can indicate that the cutting object storage space in the container 25 below the Oroshi cutter 24 is full of cutting objects.

FIG. 6 shows another embodiment of the present invention, in which a cylindrical wall 37 formed on the inner bottom surface of the container 25 is detachably attached to the container 25. This can not only be used when the container 25 is equipped with two upper and lower knife cutters 40 instead of the Oroshi cutter 24 as shown in FIG. 7, but also because the unevenness of the container 25 is reduced. Easier to clean.

Effects of the Invention As described above, according to the present invention, an annular wall centered on the cutter rotation axis is formed on the lower surface of the oroshi cutter, a hole is provided in the oroshi cutter adjacent to the outer periphery of the annular wall, and a hole is provided in the oroshi cutter in the same manner as the annular wall. Because the inner diameter of the core is slightly larger than the outer diameter of the annular wall, and the cylindrical wall extends above the lower end of the annular wall from the inner bottom of the container to near the bottom of the Oroshi cutter,
Cuttings below the Oroshi cutter are less likely to blow out from the lower surface of the cutter to the upper surface through the hole provided in the Oroshi cutter than to enter the gap between the annular wall and the cylindrical wall. Not only can it prevent the cuttings from flowing out from the hollow part of the container, but it is extremely effective in notifying the user that the container below the Oroshi cutter is full of cuttings due to the change in the circulation of the cuttings. It is something.
