Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION Field of Industrial Application This invention relates to a juicer for squeezing juice from vegetables, fruits, etc.

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, a centrifugal separation cage of a juicer, in which squeezed lees is retained in a filter provided within the centrifugal separation cage, was as shown in FIG. That is, the centrifugal separation basket 1 is formed into a cylindrical shape, and when squeezing the juice, a roughly cylindrical and rigid comb-shaped filter 2 with a plurality of vertical slits is inserted into the centrifugal separation basket 1, and a cutter 3 is used to squeeze the juice. The cut material is retained in the filter 2, the centrifugal separation basket 1 and the filter 2 are rotated, and the centrifugal force at this time is used to remove the juice in the cutting material through the comb-shaped slit of the filter 2. The squeezed juice is squeezed out to the inner wall and is discharged from the upper surface of the centrifugal basket 1 through a gap between the centrifugal basket 1 and the filter 2, and squeezed lees remain in the filter 2. Then, when discharging the squeezed lees, move the filter 2 to the centrifugal separation basket 1.
After removing the filter and discarding the dregs inside the filter 2, the filter 2 was inserted into the centrifuge cage 1 again and used.

The problem that the invention seeks to solve However, this time the inventors used paper as filter 2.

I have been thinking about using a thin and soft filter 2, such as non-woven fabric or net. When such a filter 2 is used, the filter 2 comes into close contact with the centrifuge cage 1, and it is difficult for the juice to pass between the centrifuge cage 1 and the filter 2 and discharge the juice from the top surface of the centrifuge cage. We considered providing holes on the inner surface of the separation cage 1.

However, simply providing holes resulted in poor juice squeezing performance and the filter was difficult to remove.

The object of the present invention is to solve the above problems and provide a juicer with a high juice yield.

Means for Solving the Problems In order to solve the above problems, the juicer of the present invention has a substantially cylindrical centrifugal separation cage, and has a plurality of triangular ribs whose apexes are formed in the vertical direction on the inner surface of the centrifugal separation basket. A through hole is provided in the side surface of the centrifugal separation cage between the ribs and the centrifugal cage.

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

That is, when a filter is attached to a centrifugal cage and the juice is squeezed, the juice that has passed through the filter adheres to the side surface of the centrifugal cage. The attached juice quickly moves to the valley between the ribs because the inner surface of the centrifuge cage has triangular ribs.

Since through-holes are provided in the valleys between the ribs, the juice adhering to the inside of the centrifugal separation basket will flow to the valleys between the ribs due to centrifugal force and be quickly discharged into the container through the through-holes. will be done.

EXAMPLE Hereinafter, an example of the present invention will be described based on the accompanying drawings. In Figures 1 to 4, 11 is a motor and the main body 12
It is attached together with a holder 15 by screws 14 via a buffer 13. 16 is an output shaft connected to the rotating shaft of the motor 11, and a substantially cylindrical centrifugal separation cage 1 is attached to the upper end of the output shaft.
7 is removably attached. 18 is centrifugal separation cage 17
A balancer 119 provided at the center bottom of the centrifugal cage 17 is a balancer that can be attached to and removed from the upper end of the centrifuge cage 17, and a fluid is sealed inside. 20 is a container provided with a juice inlet 21 at the bottom. 22 is a lid that covers the opening of the container, and a material input port 23 close to the cutter 18 is provided on the top surface. 24 is a push rod that presses the material against the cutter 18. 25 is a triangular rib provided in the vertical direction inside the centrifugal separation cage 1a,
A through hole 26 is provided between adjacent ribs 25.

2-ring is a filter made of paper, non-woven fabric, net, etc.

Next, the operation of the configuration of this embodiment will be explained. First, the container 2o is placed on the main body 12, and the centrifugal separation cage 1 is fitted onto the output shaft 16. Next, the filter 27 is installed in the centrifugal separation cage 17, and the balancer 19 is installed above it.

Next, after covering the container 2o with the lid 22, turn on the switch leading to the motor 11, and while the centrifugal separation basket 17 is rotating, the cutting material is introduced from the top surface of the input port 23, and the push rod 2
4, press it against the cutter 18 and cut it. The cut material accumulates in the filter 27, and the juice that has passed through the filter 27 due to centrifugal force adheres to the side surface of the centrifugal separation basket 17. The adhering juice is discharged into the container 2o through through holes 26 provided in the valleys of adjacent ribs 25 on the surface of triangular ribs 26 on the inner surface of the centrifugal separation basket 17.

Next, the filter 27 filled with lees is transferred to the centrifugal separation basket 17.
When removing the filter 27, first remove the balancer 19 attached above the centrifugal separation cage 17, and then pull the filter 27 upward together with the dregs.

Then, the filter 27 is pulled upward along the top of the vertical rib 25 inside the centrifugal separation cage 17, so the contact frictional resistance between the filter 27 and the centrifugal separation cage 17 is reduced, and the filter 27 is easily pulled out of the centrifugal separation cage. removed.

Effects of the Invention The present invention forms a plurality of triangular ribs whose inner end surfaces are apexes in the vertical direction of the inner surface of a substantially cylindrical centrifugal separation cage, and a plurality of triangular ribs whose inner end surfaces are apexes are formed on the side surfaces of the centrifugal separation cage in the valleys between the ribs. Since the through holes are provided, the juice squeezing performance is improved and the filter can be easily removed from the centrifugal separation basket, which is extremely effective.
