Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION Field of Industrial Application The present invention relates to a juicer in which squeezed lees is stored in a centrifugal cage.

BACKGROUND ART FIG. 6 shows a conventional centrifugal separation cage for this type of juicer, in which a balancer 2 in which a fluid is sealed in a casing is disposed on the upper outer periphery of a bottomed cylindrical centrifugal separation cage 1. be.

3 Iri A cutter attached to the center of the inner bottom surface of the centrifugal separation cage 1, 4 is a filter made of rigid resin that is also detachably provided on the inner peripheral surface of the centrifugal separation cage 3, and a comb is formed by forming a slit 5 in the vertical direction. It's in shape.

Problems to be Solved by the Invention With such a conventional configuration, the juice separated from the dregs by the slit 6 of the filter 4 rises along the inner peripheral surface of the centrifugal separation basket 1, and the juice receiver is released from the upper opening. The direction toward the container is what is dissipated. By the way, in the above-mentioned conventional structure, since the juice flows upward and is dispersed after reaching the inner peripheral surface of the centrifugal separation basket 1, the flow process is long and the squeezing performance is poor accordingly. In addition, when cleaning the filter 4, it is difficult to remove squeezed sludge that is clogged in the slit 5.
It was very time consuming.

The present invention solves these conventional problems and provides a juicer that has good squeezing performance and is easy to clean.

Means for Solving the Problem In order to solve this problem, the present invention forms a large number of holes in the peripheral wall of the centrifugal separation cage, provides a disposable filter on the inner surface of the peripheral wall, and further improves the efficiency of the centrifugal separation cage. A balancer is detachably attached to the inner edge of the upper opening.

Function: With this configuration, the juice filtered through the filter can efficiently flow out as it is through the holes of the centrifugal separation cage, and cleaning can be easily and effortlessly done by discarding the filter.

EXAMPLES Hereinafter, examples of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. 1 to 4.

In the figure, a motor 16 is mounted in a vibration-proof manner inside a main body 13 having legs 11 and a cooling air inlet 12 on its bottom surface via a cushioning material 14 such as rubber.

16 is placed on this main body 13, and a juice receptacle whose upper opening is closed with a lid 18 having a material input port 17 is used as a container, and a juice outlet 19 is provided on a part of the bottom surface of the container.
is formed.

The output shaft 20 of the motor 16 passes through the top wall of the main body 13 and the juice receiver passes through the bottom wall of the container 16 and faces into the container 16. Reference numeral 21 denotes a centrifugal separation cage having a substantially bottomed cylindrical shape, in which the juice receiver is housed in the container 16 and is detachably connected to the output shaft 20. A cutter 22 is provided at the center of the inner bottom surface of the centrifugal separation cage. A large number of holes 23 are formed therein.

24)-1: A stepped portion formed on the inner edge of the upper opening of the centrifugal separation cage 21, 25 indicates a balancer that is detachably attached to this stepped portion 24 to prevent rotation, and a plurality of fluid resistance elements 26 are moved inward. It has a structure in which a fluid 28 is sealed in a hollow annular body 27 provided in a protruding manner. Preventing the balancer 25 from rotating relative to the stepped portion 24 can be achieved by forming recesses and recesses that engage with each other on both sides.

Further, 29 is a disposable filter provided along the inner surface of the peripheral wall of the centrifugal separation cage 21, and is made of paper, nonwoven fabric, net, or the like.

30 indicates a push rod.

In the above configuration, the material input from the material input port 17 is cut by the cutter 22 and then swung to the outer periphery by centrifugal force. Next, the cut material is filtered through the filter 29, and only the juice component passes therethrough, and is immediately dispersed to the outer periphery through the holes 23 of the centrifugal separation cage 21.

The released juice is received by the juice container 16 and then flows out from the juice outlet 19. Further, the squeezed lees is stored in a centrifugal separation basket 21.

By the way, even if an unbalanced load is applied to the centrifugal separation capacity 210 when it rotates, the centrifugal force of the balancer 25 prevents the centrifugal separation cage 21 from vibrating. At this time, the flow of the fluid 28 in the balancer 25 is regulated by the resistance of the fluid resistance body 26, thereby enhancing the balancing effect.

Next, to dispose of the squeezed lees, the lid 18 is opened and the centrifugal separation basket 21 is taken out from the juice container 16. However, if the stone removal balancer 26 is removed and the centrifugal separation basket 21 is turned upside down, the filter 29 is discharged from its opening together with the squeezed dregs.

Therefore, cleaning is performed using the centrifuge cage 21 and the balancer 2.
5, and there is no need to clean a part of the filter, which was very troublesome in the past.

The filter 29 may be cylindrical along the inner circumferential surface of the centrifugal separation cage 21, or may be strip-shaped and fit around the centrifugal separation cage 21.
It may be attached to the inner circumferential surface of the tube, and each end may be slightly overlapped. A balancer 25 is placed above the filter 29 to prevent it from popping out upward.

Effects of the Invention As described above, according to the juicer of the present invention, juice is discharged from the centrifugal basket without resistance, and the centrifugal basket is rotated smoothly by the balancer, thereby exhibiting high squeezing performance. However, since the filter is disposable, the centrifuge cage can be cleaned easily and reliably, making it extremely hygienic.
