First Claim
Patent Images
1. A driving mechanism for a kneading blade of a bread making device, comprising:
- a motor having a rotating shaft and axis associated therewith;
a revolving shaft, and axis associated therewith, extending from one side of said kneading blade;
a first driving member positioned on said rotating shaft;
a first driven member linked with said first driving member and rotating at a speed slower than a speed of said first driving member, and said first driven member having a longitudinal axis;
a second driving member connected to said first driven member;
a second driven member linked with said second driving member, said second driven member rotating with a speed slower than a speed of said second driving member;
said revolving shaft and said kneading blade are driven by said second driven member; and
said axes of said revolving shaft, rotating shaft and at least said first driven member are substantially parallel to each other; and
wherein said motor having a body with an outside periphery, and wherein said outside periphery projects within an imaginary circle having a diameter substantially equal to a sum of a diameter of said second driven member, a radius of said first driven member and a radius of said driving member.

Abstract
In a driving mechanism of a kneading blade of a bread production device driven by a motor through the reduction gear, a reduction ratio of the reduction gear is adapted to be more than 10:1. By this, the motor which drives the kneading blade is miniaturized.
