Micro puree machine
A micro puree machine including a housing, a power shaft, a bowl assembly and a platform. The power shaft extends from the housing. The bowl assembly including at least one locking bowl element. The platform includes at least one complementary locking platform element that is configured to engage the at least one locking bowl element such that rotation of the bowl assembly relative to the platform is prevented at times the bowl assembly is positioned thereon. The platform is rotatable from a first position to a second position relative to the housing such that the platform raises the bowl assembly towards the power shaft during the rotation of the bowl assembly and platform. The raising of the bowl assembly facilitates connection between the power shaft and a blade assembly that is positioned in a lid assembly on the bowl assembly.
1. A micro puree machine including a blade assembly and a bowl assembly, the bowl assembly, comprising:
an inner beaker configured to receive ingredients, the inner beaker comprising an exterior bottom surface that includes at least one beaker alignment structure;
an outer bowl configured to receive the inner beaker therein, the outer bowl comprising an interior bottom surface that includes at least one bowl alignment structure and an exterior bottom surface that includes at least one coupling member;
wherein the at least one beaker alignment structure is complementary to the at least one bowl alignment structure such that, when the inner beaker is positioned in the outer bowl, the at least one bowl alignment structure and the at least one beaker alignment structure prevent rotation of the inner beaker relative to the outer bowl; and
wherein the at least one coupling member is configured to receive and attach to a portion of a platform of the micro puree machine.
2. The micro puree machine of claim 1 , wherein the outer bowl comprises an upper rim that defines an outwardly projecting lip along a portion of the rim.
3. The micro puree machine of claim 2 , wherein the lip includes at least one interruption configured to receive at least one downwardly extending protrusion of a lid.
4. The micro puree machine of claim 1 , wherein the at least one bowl alignment structure extends upward into an inner beaker volume defined by the inner beaker and is positioned closer to an outer circumference of the outer bowl than to a central axis of the outer bowl.
5. The micro puree machine of claim 1 , wherein the at least one beaker alignment structure creates a void on the underside of the inner beaker.
6. The micro puree machine of claim 1 , wherein the at least one bowl alignment structure is generally rectangular.
7. The micro puree machine of claim 1 , wherein the at least one beaker alignment structure is generally rectangular.
8. The micro puree machine of claim 1 , wherein the at least one bowl alignment structure comprises at least four bowl alignment structures.
9. The micro puree machine of claim 1 , wherein the at least one beaker alignment structure comprises at least four beaker alignment structures.
