DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0025] In order to further explain the technical means and effects of the present invention to achieve the intended purpose of the invention, the specific implementation, structure, features and effects of the present invention will be described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and preferred embodiments.

EXAMPLES

Example 1

[0026] As shown in FIGS. 1-2, the juice extractor assembly of the large-diameter feed pipe described in a first embodiment can include a screw 1. One of the end faces of the screw 1 can be a feeding end 2, and the feeding end 2 of the screw 1 can be connected with rotating blade 3. The rotating blade 3 can be covered with the cover 19 that cooperates with a juice extractor body. The cover 19 can cover the rotating blade 3 completely on the horizontal and vertical directions. The cover 19 can include a feed inlet 20. A feed pipe 21 can be connected to the feed inlet 20.

[0027] As shown in FIG. 4 and FIG. 5, the rotating blades 3 can be inclined to the rotation direction of the screw 1. The rotating blade 3 can have an acute cutting angle on the edge in the rotation direction of the screw 1. Additionally, the rotating blade can include a thickening zone that gradually increases from the top to the bottom at the bottom position in contact with the screw 1.

[0028] As shown in FIGS. 2-3, the feed inlet 20 can expose the rotating blades 3 in the horizontal and vertical directions of the cover 19. The ratio of the maximum diameter of the feed pipe 21 to the cover 19 can be more than . The transition position between the feed port 20 and the cover 19 can include an inwardly protruding extruding rib 24. The cover 19 can be integrated with the feed pipe 21. The cover 19 can be a truncated cone with a small top and a large bottom. The cover 19 can include vertical grooves 22 evenly distributed around the circumference of the inner wall of the cover 19.

[0029] As shown in FIG. 6, the rotating blade 3 can include a groove 4 on the end surface connected with the screw 1. Additionally, the screw 1 can include a protrusion 5 that is configured to match with the groove 4 on the end surface in contact with the rotating blade 3.

[0030] As shown in FIGS. 6-7, the screw 1 can be a one-way enlarged shape, and the enlarged section closest to rotating blade 3 can be a feeding zone 6. The steady section far away from rotating blade 3 can be a squeezing zone 7. The squeezing zone 7 can include a plurality of spiral ribs 8, and the feeding zone 6 can include a spiral pushing rib 9. The middle of the screw 1 can include a driving shaft 14, and the driving shaft 14 and the rotating blade 3 pass through a flat key 15 connection. The driving shaft 14 and the rotating blade 3 can be connected by a tool fixing screw 17. The tool fixing screw 17 can buckle the rotating blade 3 and can be threadedly connected with the driving shaft 14. The upper surface of the tool fixing screw 17 can include two centrally symmetrical screw holes 18. The direction of the bottom of the rotating blade 3 can be consistent with the direction of the pushing rib 9 on the end surface of the feeding end 2.

[0031] In the actual product, by determining the diameter of the feed pipe to be 70-74 cm, it is ensured that it can directly accommodate ingredients such as small apples and oranges, and juice extraction without pretreatment is realized.

Example 2

[0032] As shown in FIGS. 1-2, the juice extractor assembly can include a cover 19, a screw 1, a rotating blade 3 and a driving shaft 14. The cover 19 can include a feed pipe 21 and a feed inlet 20. The feed pipe 21 can be configured to receive food from a user. The feed pipe 21 can have a variable diameter to accommodate a variety of foods. As a non-limiting example, the diameter of the feed pipe 21 can be between about 70 cm to about 74 cm. Advantageously, this can allow for small and large food to move easily through the feed pipe 21 and into the feed inlet 20. One of ordinary skill in the art can select a suitable diameter for the feed pipe 21 within the scope of the present disclosure.

[0033] With reference to FIG. 3, a portion of the feed inlet 20 can be frustoconical in shape and can include a plurality of vertical grooves 22 and extruding ribs 24. The plurality of vertical grooves 22 and extruding ribs 24 can be disposed about a portion of the circumferential surface of the feed inlet 20. As an example, the vertical grooves 22 and extruding ribs 24 can be spaced evenly about a portion of the feed inlet 20 surface. However, the vertical grooves 22 and the extruding ribs 24 can be spaced unevenly about a portion of the feed inlet 20 surface. Advantageously, this variability can allow for the juice extractor assembly to be customized for the individual needs of the user.

[0034] As shown in FIG. 4, the screw 1 can include a feeding zone 6 and a squeezing zone 7. The feeding zone 6 can include pushing ribs 9 and be disposed on an enlarged portion of the screw 1. The enlarged portion can allow for the pushing ribs 9 to be larger in size compared to other ribs disposed on the screw 1 such as those within the squeezing zone 7. Upon food leaving the food inlet 20 and entering the screw 1 of the juice extractor assembly, the pushing ribs 9 can facilitate in pushing the food down form the feeding zone 6 into the squeezing zone 7 of the screw 1 by trapping the cut-up food in the pushing ribs 9 and moving it down the screw 1 as the screw 1 rotates.

[0035] With continued reference to FIG. 4, the squeezing zone 7 can include a plurality of spiral ribs 8. The plurality of spiral ribs 8 can be smaller in size compared to the pushing ribs 9. The plurality of spiral ribs 8 can facilitate in squeezing the juice from the previously cut food in the squeezing zone 7.

[0036] With reference to FIGS. 4-7, the rotating blade 3 can be disposed within the cover 19 and connected to the screw 1. The rotating blade 3 can include a groove 4 and the screw 1 can include a protrusion 5, wherein the groove 4 is configured to receive the protrusion 5. Advantageously, this can facilitate a secure connection between the rotating blade 3 and the screw 1 such that the rotating blade 3, although not co-formed with the screw 1, can become an extension of the screw 1 and cut the food before it enters the feeding zone 6 of the screw 1.

[0037] As shown in FIG. 4, the width of the rotating blade 3 can increase from a top of the rotating blade 3 to a bottom of the rotating blade 3. The rotating blade 3 can be inclined in the same rotational direction of the screw 1 such that the rotating blade 3 acts as an extension of the screw 1. Similarly, the rotating blade 3 can be oriented to the direction of the pushing ribs 9. The rotating blade 3 can also be disposed at an acute angle relative to the screw 1, shown in FIG. 4.

[0038] With continued reference to FIGS. 4-7, the driving shaft 14 can be configured to receive the screw 1 and the rotating blade 3. The screw 1 and the rotating blade 3 can be secured to the driving shaft 14 with a tool fixing screw 17 threadedly connected to the driving shaft 14. The tool fixing screw 17 can include two screw holes 18 disposed centrally and symmetrically on the tool fixing screw 17. Desirably, this can allow for a secure connection between the screw 1 and the rotating blade 3.
