Cooking appliance and control method thereof

Abstract

The invention discloses a cooking utensil and a control method thereof. The cooking utensil comprises a kitchen range, a pot, a heating assembly, a pot cover, a drive motor, a spill-proof electrode and a controller, wherein the pot is placed on the kitchen range, and an accommodating cavity is formed inside the pot; the heating assembly is arranged in the kitchen range; the pot cover is pivotally arranged on the kitchen range between the opening position and the closing position of the accommodating cavity; the drive motor is arranged on the kitchen range, and is connected with the pot cover; the spill-proof electrode is arranged on the pot cover, and the detection end of the spill-proof electrode is the same as the accommodating cavity; the controller is connected with the drive motor and the spill-proof electrode respectively, and after detecting a signal of the spill-proof electrode, the controller controls the drive motor to rotate so as to open the pot cover. According to the cooking utensil provided by the embodiment of the invention, through the common effects of the spill-proof electrode and the drive motor, the food inside the accommodating cavity is prevented from overflowing outwards, thus the practicability and the efficiency of the cooking utensil are improved, and the food inside the accommodating cavity is rapidly prevented from overflowing outwards.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of household appliances, in particular to a cooking appliance and a control method for the cooking appliance. Background technique [0002] Electric heating pots currently in use, such as electric rice cookers, electric saucepans, electric hot pots, etc., cannot solve the problem of overflowing pots. The overflowing soup adheres to the surface of the electric heating pot and the stove, and it is even more difficult to clean after it is air-dried. [0003] Existing anti-overflow pots mainly control the heating module by detecting overflow through the anti-overflow electrode-reduce the power or turn off the heating module to prevent overflow. [0004] When the above solution solves the overflow problem, due to the certain inertia of the heating module, the heat will still be released after the power is reduced or the heating module is turned off, the overflow will not stop immediately, and the possibility of overflow wi...
