The present invention relates to a power transmission mechanism for facilitating a series of operations performed in a kitchen and includes a body unit (10), a control unit (20), a work unit (30), and a versatile power transmission mechanism to be. The power transmission mechanism of the present invention is constructed such that the operation unit 20 as a power source and the operation unit 30 for working are separated from each other and sterilized by ultraviolet rays while maximizing ease of use through one-touch type connection means to improve hygiene as a kitchen appliance The main point is to do.

The body part 10 according to the present invention includes a storage box 11 for storing the operation unit 20 and the operation unit 30 and a case 12 for accommodating the storage box 11. The storage compartment 11 is disposed on the sink of the kitchen in a state of being always connected to an external power source. The storage compartment 11 includes a receiving groove 11a for supplying or charging power to the operation unit 20 as shown in FIGS. 1, 2 and 3, The mounting groove 11b for mounting the operation unit 30 in an aligned state is formed to be exposed. Although not shown in separate drawings, a power line connected to an outlet, a switch for interrupting the power supply, and a display for displaying the charging state of the operation unit 20 are provided. Here, the shape and shape of the storage box 11 can be formed into a design that can simultaneously satisfy the user's use and storage while simultaneously satisfying the interior of the kitchen.

The case 12 houses a storage box 11 in an internal space to store and protect the storage box 11 cleanly. To this end, the case 12 is provided with a cover 13 at the top thereof so as to be opened and closed. An ultraviolet LED 14 is disposed inside the case 12 to sterilize the storage box 11. In FIG. 4, an ultraviolet LED 14 provided in a plate shape inside the cover 13 is shown. The LED lighting switch 15 is provided so that the ultraviolet LED 14 is controlled to be turned on according to the opening and closing of the lid 13. [ As shown in Fig. 1, the LED turn-on switch 15 is provided at the edge of the case 12 which abuts the lid 13, and when the lid 13 is closed, the LED turn-on switch 15 is pressed to supply power to the ultraviolet LED 14 , And when the lid 13 is opened, it is depressed to cut off the power supply to the ultraviolet LED 14. According to the present invention, when the case 12 is closed, the ultraviolet LED 14 is turned on to sterilize the working unit 30, so that the built-in kitchen tool can be kept clean. On the other hand, although it is not shown in the drawing, it is preferable to provide drainage grooves so as to drain water from the bottom surface of the case 12. [

1, 2, and 3, the operation unit 20 according to the present invention is removably mounted on the receiving groove 11 so as to be capable of being operated . As shown in FIG. 3, the operation unit 20 includes a motor 21, which is formed in a relatively easy-to-grasp shape and operates in accordance with an operation, and an output shaft 25 connected to the motor 21 and rotated. Although not shown in the drawings, a battery for supplying power to the motor 21, a switch for interrupting the power supply of the battery, and a charging terminal for receiving power from the storage 10 are provided. Here, a transmission may be further provided between the motor 21 and the output shaft 25 to adjust the rotational force manually or automatically.

The work unit 30 according to the present invention is mounted on the mounting groove 15 as shown in FIGS. 1, 2 and 3, and is connected to the operation unit 20 according to a required operation in the kitchen, thereby achieving the operation. The working unit 30 includes an input shaft 31 connected to the output shaft 25 to receive a rotational force, and an operating member connected to the input shaft 31 to perform a necessary operation in the kitchen. The input shaft 31 is connected to the output shaft 25 in male and female, and transmits the rotational force so that the operating body performs work. Here, the operating body may be composed of a cleaner 35, a mixer 36, a whisk 37, a blower 38, and a cleaner 39.

The cleaner 35 is equipped with an impeller which is directly connected to the input shaft 31 and generates a vacuum. Such a cleaner 35 can suck foreign matter such as small foodstuffs and spice powder that are separated from the sink or gas range. Therefore, cleaning can be performed quickly and easily without using a cloth or a rag. On the contrary, the blower 38 is equipped with a blade which is directly connected to the input shaft 31 and generates a pneumatic pressure. Such a blower 35 can dry a kitchen utensil after washing dishes or a sink or a gas range in which water cleaning is completed. Therefore, it is possible to suppress the stain by drying without using a dry cloth or a rag. Then, the blender 36 shreds the food material with the blade, the whisk 37 mixes the batter with the wire mesh, and the washer 39 removes stubbornness with the bendable brush. In addition, a screwdriver can be used to lock or unscrew housings, or drills to drill holes.

The connecting means according to the present invention is an adapter which is formed on the operation unit 20 and the operation unit 30, respectively, as shown in Figs. 3 and 5, and meshes with each other. As shown in FIG. 5, the connecting means includes a socket and a plug for connecting the output shaft 25 and the input shaft 31 at one-touch. The socket has a fixed base 41 having a through hole 41a for receiving the output shaft 25 at one end of the operation unit 20 and a fixed base 41 which is vertically communicated with the through hole 41a on the fixed base 41, The elastic band 44 is engaged with the elastic band 44 so as to slide in the fluid groove 42. The elastic band 44 presses the elastic bar 44 in one direction. And an operation pedestal 45 which operates to project and retract the opening 43 into the through-hole 41a. The plug includes a connecting rod 46 which is inserted into the through hole 41a while receiving the input shaft 31 exposed at one end of the working unit 30 and a connecting rod 46 which is selectively engaged with the connecting rod 46 on the connecting rod 46 And an engagement groove (47). Here, the socket and the plug are provided with a restricting groove 48 and a restricting projection 49 for preventing rotation on the inner and outer surfaces to be engaged with each other.

One-touch connection of the operation unit 20 and the operation unit 30 by the socket and the plug will be described below. First, the state of the socket when the operation unit 20 and the operation unit 30 are separated will be described. As shown in FIG. 6, the stopper bar 43 is advanced to one side by the elastic band 44 and the inner surface of the operation platform 45 And is in and out of the through hole 41a while being caught in the flow groove 42. [

When the plug is inserted into the socket, the connecting rod 46 is retracted while depressing the latching bar 43 out of the through hole 41a as shown in FIG. 7, and the latching bar 43 Is again advanced to engage with the engaging groove 47. At the same time, the output shaft 25 and the input shaft 31 are connected, so that the restricting groove 48 and the restricting projection 49 are engaged with each other.

In this state, even if the plug is pulled out from the socket, the latching bar 43 is caught in the flow groove 42 and can not be separated. That is, when the operation bar 45 is pulled as shown in FIG. 8 to retract the latch bar 43, the plug can be separated from the latch groove 47 and separated. As described above, the electric unit 20 and the work unit 30 can be quickly removed and mounted by one-touch operation, so that anyone can use the electric unit 20 quickly and conveniently.

It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that various modifications and variations can be made in the present invention without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention as defined by the appended claims. It is therefore intended that such variations and modifications fall within the scope of the appended claims.
