Steam Valves and Cooking Appliances

Abstract

The invention provides a steam valve and a cooking appliance. Among them, the steam valve includes: a valve body and a bubble breaking component. The valve body has a steam chamber, and the steam chamber is provided with a steam inlet and a steam outlet; the bubble breaking component is installed in the steam chamber, and the bubble breaking component has a bubble breaking chamber. The bubble cavity is provided with a steam inlet and a steam outlet connected to the steam inlet, and the steam outlet is covered with an elastic valve to open or close the steam outlet. The steam valve provided by the present invention opens or closes the steam outlet of the bubble breaking chamber through the elastic deformation of the elastic valve. The greater the steam pressure in the steam valve, the greater the opening degree of the elastic valve. The elastic valve is resistant to rice grains and porridge mixed with The greater the squeezing effect of the steam of soup, etc., can achieve beneficial effects such as preventing fines from clogging the steam outlet, breaking the rice soup bubbles, and making the rice soup less likely to overflow. The elastic valve is in contact with the elasticity of the bubble-breaking component during the process of opening or closing the steam outlet. Contact, no noise is produced, and product performance is guaranteed.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the field of kitchen utensils, more specifically, to a steam valve and a cooking appliance including the steam valve. Background technique [0002] At present, cooking utensils on the market, such as electric rice cookers, are usually provided with a steam valve, which controls the closing and opening of the air outlet through the balance between the gravity of the ball and the internal pressure of the electric rice cooker. [0003] However, because the spherical object cannot be designed too large, if it is too large, the gravity of the spherical object will be too large, and the internal pressure of the rice cooker cannot support the spherical object, and in order to support the spherical object, the width of the matching position of the air outlet channel and the spherical object must be smaller than that of the spherical object. The diameter of the food, so the air outlet channel will form an outlet bottleneck here,...

[0003] However, because the spherical object cannot be designed too large, if it is too large, the gravity of the spherical object will be too large, and the internal pressure of the rice cooker cannot support the spherical object. The diameter of the object, so the air outlet channel will form an outlet bottleneck here, which may be blocked by rice grains or other fines, resulting in the failure of the rice cooker to exhaust normally, and the pressure inside the rice cooker is too high, which may cause an explosion hazard; secondly, in the During the working process, the ball keeps rolling and colliding with surrounding parts to generate noise, which affects the performance of the product
