Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION "Industrial Application Field" The present invention relates to a juicer for cutting and crushing fruits, vegetables, etc. with a cutter, and then centrifuging the resultant to obtain juice liquid.

``Prior Art'' Conventionally, this type of extractor has a structure in which the waste squeezed out by the separating cage is collected almost uniformly in the waste receiver (for example, the
Publication No. 41609) ``Problem to be solved by the invention'' The problem is that the disposal of waste is extremely troublesome.

"Means for solving the problem" A separation basket, a waste receptacle, and its lid are provided,
A dregs compression means is provided between the lid and the receiver, and an air outlet is provided in the dregs receiver.

``Operation'' Materials are separated into waste and waste in a separation basket, and the waste is sent to the waste receiver along with the wind flow. The wind flow is discharged from the air outlet, and the debris is sequentially deposited. It is compressed by a dregs compaction means, and the remaining space is continued to be deposited with dregs, and when it is filled, it is removed all at once.

"Embodiment" In the figure, 1 is a base, and a motor 2 is installed inside the base. Reference numeral 3 denotes a youth container which is removably placed on the upper part of the base 1, and has a youth outlet 4 at the bottom and a notch 5 at the top. A motor shaft 6 protrudes from the center of the youth container 3. Reference numeral 7 denotes a rotary table screwed to the motor shaft 6, and a separation cage 8 is detachably connected to the rotary table 7. The separation cage 8 has a large number of small holes 9.
The filter 10 has an inverted conical shape. Reference numeral 11 denotes a cutter for cutting material provided on the inner bottom of the separation cage 8, and is fixed to the cutter stand 12 together with the separation cage 8. This cutter stand 1
2 is a device that can be attached to and detached from the rotary table 7. Reference numeral 13 denotes a waste receptacle that is removably placed on the upper part of the youth container 3. The outer periphery is formed into a substantially cylindrical shape, and approximately in the center there is an input port 14 for inputting materials such as fruits and vegetables, and a separation basket 8. Cutting by
Dregs storage section 1 for storing crushed and discharged dregs
5. Reference numeral 16 indicates an inlet for the waste discharged from the separation basket 8; 17 indicates a partition wall protruding from the inside of the waste receiver 13; 18 projects from the outer periphery and fits into the notch 5 of the youth container 3; This is a protrusion that prevents the receiver 13 from rotating. Reference numeral 19 denotes a lid that covers the waste receptacle 13, and the outer peripheral inner wall portion that fits into the waste receptacle 13 is formed in a substantially cylindrical shape, and is fitted to the waste receptacle 13 so as to be rotatable and detachable. Approximately in the center is a hole 20 that communicates with the input port 14 of the waste receiver 13. Reference numeral 21 denotes a wall portion for collecting dregs, which is provided to protrude inside the lid 19, and is formed almost along the inner wall of the dregs storage portion 15 of the dregs receiver 13, with a slight gap from the inner wall of the dregs storage portion 15. has been done. When the lid 19 is in operation, the wall portion 21 for collecting scraps is connected to the scrap receiver 13.
It is set so as to be located in the gap 24 between the dregs inlet 16 and the partition wall 17. Note that the partition wall 17 and the wall portion 21 constitute a compression means 25. 26
is an air outlet provided in the form of a slit in the side wall of the inlet 14.

In the juicer with the above configuration, when the motor 2 is driven and materials such as fruits and vegetables are put in through the input port 14, they are squeezed by the separation basket 8, and the juices pass through the small holes 9 of the filter 10 and are used in one batch. After being accommodated in the container 3, it is accommodated in the use cup 22 through the use outlet 4. on the other hand,
The dregs rise up the surface of the filter 10 and are discharged above the separation basket 8. The discharged waste is separated into basket 8.
Due to the flow of air caused by the rotation of the separation basket 8, the space 23 formed by the upper part of the separation basket 8 and the back side of the bottom of the comb receiver 13 is moved in the same direction as the rotation of the separation basket 8 (in the case of this embodiment, the Q direction). Rotating scum inlet 1
6 enters into the dregs storage section 15 of the dregs receiver 13 and is accommodated therein. The dregs that have entered the dregs storage section 15 are partitioned while rotating in the Q direction inside the dregs storage section 15 after entering the dregs storage section 15 due to the wind flow generated by the rotation of the separating basket 8. The air current comes into contact with the wall 17 and is discharged from the air outlet 26, and only the debris is gradually accumulated starting from the vicinity of the partition wall 17 as shown in FIG. In this way, the waste inlet 16
If the operation is stopped and the lid 19 is rotated in the Q direction when scum has accumulated up to the vicinity, the scum is pressed against the partition wall 17 by the scum collection wall 21 and compressed, and the lid is closed. By returning the position of 19 to its original position, a space for storing waste can be secured in the waste storage section 15, and operation can be resumed.

According to this embodiment, even if the waste storage section 15 is full of waste, the waste can be compressed between the partition wall 17 and the waste collecting wall 21 by rotating the lid 19. The waste can be disposed of in small pieces, making the waste disposal operation very easy, and the space inside the waste storage section 15 can be used effectively, allowing a large amount of waste to be squeezed out at once. In addition, since the dregs collection wall 21 is formed with a slight gap between the inner wall of the dregs storage section 15, when the lid 19 is rotated, the dregs will not leak through this gap and be compressed. There is not a trace left. If the gap is usually about 0 to 1 mm, most of the dregs will be compressed. In addition, the provision of an air outlet promotes the accumulation of debris, and the slit-like shape allows only the flow of air to be effectively discharged.

In the embodiment described above, the waste container 13 and the youth container 3 are constructed separately, but the effects of the present invention can also be obtained even if they are constructed as one body.

"Effects of the Invention" As described above, the present invention provides a dregs compression means between the lid and the dregs receiver, an air outlet in the dregs receiver, and a dregs compression means between the lid and the dregs receiver. Since it is provided in the container, the waste can be disposed of all at once, and the space inside the waste receptacle can be used effectively, making it extremely valuable.
