Definitions
- the field of the invention is that of self-retracting cable reels, manually operated, non-electric, allowing movement to be transmitted from one part to another part by pulling a cable or a rope.
- Rope drive mechanisms intended to transmit a rotational movement to an object or a work unit are already known. These mechanisms are often implemented as a hand drive device in household appliances such as kitchen appliances, such as salad spinners, food choppers, potato mashers, juice extractors or blenders.
- the cooking appliance described in the document US2008/0164357 is more particularly provided with a manually operated rope drive mechanism arranged inside the lid of the cooking appliance.
- the assembly of this drive mechanism is complex because the parts of the drive mechanism cooperate with each other and the assembly can only be done during the assembly of the lid of the cooking appliance.
- One of the drawbacks is that once the drive mechanism is placed in the lid, it is no longer accessible and becomes permanently integral in its use with the lid inside which it is installed. It is therefore not possible to release or move the drive mechanism which is fixed in the lid, and permanently linked to the lid.
- the object of the present invention is to overcome the aforementioned drawbacks and to provide a kitchen appliance with a simple, mobile and independent manually operated rope drive device from the rest of the appliance.
- the subject of the invention is a kitchen appliance, comprising:
- a work unit comprising a bowl, a lid configured to close the bowl and a rotary accessory placed in the bowl and mounted so as to be able to rotate around an axis of rotation;
- a rope training device comprising a main body, a driving wheel housed in the main body and configured to be arranged coaxially with respect to the axis of rotation, a rope which is configured to be wound around the wheel drive and which comprises a first end fixed to the drive wheel and a second end opposite the first end, and a handle connected to the second end of the rope and configured to exert a traction on the rope so as to train in rotation the drive wheel according to a direction of rotation, the rope drive device being configured to manually rotate the rotary accessory around the axis of rotation by pulling the rope transversely to the axis of rotation ; characterized in that the cord training device is self-contained and is configured to be removable relative to the cover, and in that the cooking appliance comprises a locking system configured to temporarily and reversibly secure the main body of the device cord drive to the cover, the locking system being further configured to prevent, and more particularly to prohibit, rotational movement of the main body relative to the cover and along the axis of rotation when the main body is fixed to the lid.
- the cord drive device for the kitchen appliance according to the invention has the advantage of being able to adapt easily to all the different shapes and geometries of kitchen appliances and of being manufactured independently of the rest of the bowl and of the lid of the cooking appliance.
- the cord drive device of the kitchen appliance according to the invention is independent and ready to operate at any time. Access to the cord drive device of the kitchen appliance according to the invention is total because the latter is not pre-assembled in the lid, which would limit its handling.
- the cord drive device of the kitchen appliance according to the invention has the advantage of being an autonomous sub-assembly, releasable, that is to say configured to be movable from a kitchen appliance to another, see replaceable or repairable. Indeed, it can be envisaged to release and then move the cord drive device of the culinary appliance according to the invention, from one lid to another lid, by releasing it from the lid of the bowl, without dismantling the device. rope training or without action on the tension of the rope.
- the rope training device according to the present invention is therefore versatile.
- Another advantage of the invention is that the rope training device is designed so as to be manufactured and transported independently of the rest of the kitchen appliance in which it will be used, which represents great industrial autonomy.
- Yet another advantage of the invention is that the work unit can be detached from the rope drive device, and therefore be washed separately from the rope drive device, for example in a dishwasher.
- the specific configuration of the locking system also ensures that the forces applied to the main body (during each pull exerted on the rope) are taken up by the cover, and not by the coupling means configured to transmit the rotation of the drive wheel to the rotary accessory, which preserves the integrity of these coupling means and therefore of the cooking appliance.
