Cooking equipment and control method thereof

Abstract

The invention discloses cooking equipment. The cooking equipment comprises a cooking cavity, at least a steam generator, at least steam spraying port formed in the cooking cavity, at least one heater, a temperature detector, a humidity detector, a user operation panel and a controller, wherein the temperature detector is used for detecting the current temperature in the cooking cavity; the humidity detector is used for detecting the current humidity in the cooking cavity; the user operation panel is used for receiving the target temperature and target humidity set by a user; the controller is used for controlling each steam generator and each heater according to the target temperature, the target humidity, the current temperature and the current humidity. The cooking equipment has the advantages that the steam amount and steam temperature in the cooking cavity can be controlled effectively, the dry-wet ration required by cooking can be precisely controlled, different cooking requirements of the user can be satisfied, food nutrition can be well preserved, good cooking effect is achieved, energy is saved effectively, and user cooking experience is increased. The invention further discloses a control method of the cooking equipment.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of electrical appliances, in particular to a cooking device and a control method for the cooking device. Background technique [0002] Relevant steam cooking equipment usually uses the following two methods to cook food: one is to heat a large amount of water through a heating plate to generate steam (about 98 degrees) and cooperate with an auxiliary heating module (such as a hot air module, heating plate or heating tube) to generate high-temperature steam , so as to use the generated high-temperature steam to cook food; the second is to use the steam generator to send superheated steam into the cavity with an auxiliary heating module to generate high-temperature steam, thereby using the generated high-temperature steam to cook food. [0003] In addition, most of the related steam cooking equipment supplies water to the water tank according to the preset water supply volume (or preset water supply cycle) set...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

However, the related technology lacks control precision, cannot precisely control the amount of steam required for cooking, and cannot control the temperature of the generated steam, so that the cooking effect required by the user cannot be achieved

For example, when the cooking equipment heats a barbecue with a lot of fresh vegetable accessories, the vegetables and meat itself will contain a certain amount of water, which will generate steam after being heated. If the steam generator is simply supplied with water according to the preset water supply, then cooking The amount of steam used may be too high and the desired cooking results may not be achieved

[0004] To sum up, although there are many brands of related steam cooking equipment, their internal structures are similar, and the homogeneity is quite serious. Moreover, the steam volume and steam temperature cannot be effectively controlled, and there are problems such as slow cooking speed.
