Shear blade assembly for a blender
A blender system with a shearing blade assembly is shown and described. The blender system may include a container and a shear blending assembly attached thereto. The shear blending assembly may include a cutting blade, a shearing blade, a shear mechanism, and bearings operably coupled with a blending base. The shearing blade may force foodstuff through apertures of the shearing mechanism. The foodstuff may be drawn through a cut path of the cutting blade. The cutting blade may cut the foodstuff.
1. A blender system comprising:
a blender container comprising a first end and a second end;
a shearing blade assembly disposed proximal to the second end of the blender container, the shearing blade assembly comprising:
a shearing mechanism comprising at least one side wall comprising a plurality of apertures, an open end, and a closed end;
a choke plate disposed proximal to the open end; and
a shearing blade disposed within the shearing mechanism, wherein the shearing blade is configured to rotate about an axis,
wherein rotation of the shearing blade operatively draws foodstuff into the open end and forces foodstuff out through the plurality of apertures to shear the foodstuff.
2. The blender system of claim 1 , wherein the plurality of apertures are formed orthogonally through the at least one side wall.
3. The blender system of claim 1 , wherein the plurality of apertures are formed at an angle other than orthogonally with the side wall.
4. The blender system of claim 1 , wherein a first aperture of the plurality of apertures comprises at least one of a different shape, dimension, or angle of formation as a second aperture of the plurality of apertures.
5. The blender system of claim 1 , wherein the shearing blade is disposed between the closed end of the shearing mechanism.
