A kitchen material conveying system and kitchen automatic cooking system

Abstract

The invention provides a kitchen material conveying system. The kitchen material conveying system comprises a conveying pipeline, electric control valves, a pneumatic generation device and a control module. A plurality of material input ports are formed in the first end of the conveying pipeline. At least one material output port is formed in the second end of the conveying pipeline. The electric control valves are used for controlling communication or closing of a pipeline between at least one material input port and at least one material output port. The control module is connected with the electric control valves and the pneumatic generation device and can control the corresponding electric control valves to be opened according to needs so that the corresponding material input ports can communicate with the corresponding material output ports, the conveying efficiency is high, and the conveying manner is flexible. The invention further provides an automatic kitchen cooking system, quantitatively arranged materials can be directly conveyed to cooking equipment to be automatically cooked, manual participation is not needed in the whole cooking process, and the automation degree of an intelligent kitchen is improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the cooking field, in particular to a kitchen material conveying system and a kitchen automatic cooking system. Background technique [0002] At present, in the field of kitchen cooking, when processing or cooking solid materials such as beans or granules, the position of these solid materials needs to be moved, that is, it is necessary to move these solid materials from the storage place to the material place. The general operation method is to manually remove a certain amount of relevant beans or granular ingredients from the storage, and then rely on manual movement of these removed beans or granular ingredients to the corresponding material equipment ( Such as adding rice to the rice cooker, adding soybeans to the soymilk machine, etc.), and finally relying on manual operations such as adding water and cooking settings. This method of manual material transfer and feeding is cumbersome, backward, and inconvenient, that is, ...

Problems solved by technology

This method of manual material transfer and feeding is cumbersome, backward, and inconvenient, that is, it is necessary to manually move the taken out solid material from the storage place to the material use place and add it manually. If the distance between the storage place and the material use place is relatively large It will be time-consuming and labor-intensive, especially when there are many kinds of materials that need to be taken and added, or when there are many kinds of equipment that need to use materials, it is necessary to rely on manual work to take out a certain amount of various materials, and then rely on manual Manually moving these removed materials one by one and adding them to the corresponding material equipment, the entire feeding process will inevitably consume a lot of time and energy for the cook, and the feeding efficiency is low

In addition, at present, when retrieving these solid materials and ingredients, manual retrieving is still generally used, which makes it difficult to ensure the precise amount of solid materials, which seriously affects the cooking effect. Perform subsequent operations such as adding water and cooking settings, which is not convenient for realizing intelligence in the kitchen field

[0003] With the development of intelligent kitchen appliance technology, some intelligent kitchen cooking equipment that can automatically quantitatively feed materials have also appeared in the prior art, such as intelligent rice cookers, which can automatically and quantitatively transport the rice in the storage device to the rice cooker through the delivery pipeline. However, these smart kitchen cooking equipment are generally fixedly connected to a storage device through a delivery pipeline, which can only realize one-to-one delivery of materials. At the same time, it may be necessary to arrange multiple different conveying pipelines to connect to multiple different material-consuming equipment, or when the materials in multiple different storage devices need to be transported to multiple different material-consuming equipment, Then it may also be necessary to lay out multiple different conveying pipelines to connect the multiple different storage devices with the multiple different material equipments, and in this way, only one-to-one exchange of materials can be realized. Transportation, the delivery pipeline cannot be flexibly switched according to the user's needs (for example, the rice cooker is connected to the rice storage device through a certain delivery pipeline, and the soybean milk machine is connected to the soybean storage device through a certain delivery pipeline. When it is necessary to add soybeans to the rice cooker, or need to When rice is added to the soybean milk machine, it may not be able to switch automatically), the feeding method is not flexible enough, and the feeding method of the storage device and cooking equipment owned by the kitchen cannot be flexibly switched based on the user's needs to complete the kitchen as a whole The coordinated control of the kitchen and the layout of multiple pipelines in the kitchen not only make the structure of the kitchen pipeline complicated, but also occupy a large amount of kitchen space, making the kitchen layout confusing

[0004] To sum up, the kitchen materials in the prior art have low efficiency, time-consuming and labor-intensive manual material transfer and feeding, and the automatic material transfer and feeding method is single and not flexible enough, especially when there are many types of materials or various equipment used, it cannot be realized. The flexible switching and conveying of materials, the technical problems that cooking operations such as material intake and movement cannot be fully automated

[0005] For the above problems, no effective solution has been proposed
