[0008] A further technical solution is that the rocker arm includes: a first part, which is a straight rod; a second part, which includes a straight rod parallel to the first part and a straight rod perpendicular to the first part; a connecting part, which is connected between the first part and the second part; wherein the shaft body is slidably disposed in the first through hole, the first part abuts against the shaft body, the second part abuts against the trigger end, and the rotating shaft passes through the connecting part.

[0009] Its further technical solution is that the shaft body includes: a ring edge, which is arranged on the outside of the shaft body; the base includes: a hollow cylinder, which is arranged on the base and has a position corresponding to the shaft body; a third through hole, which is opened at the upper end of the hollow cylinder; wherein the ring edge slides in the hollow cylinder, and the first end of the shaft body passes through and exposes the third through hole; when the shaft body slides to the first state, the ring edge abuts against the upper end of the fixing frame.

[0010] The utility model also discloses a kitchen utensil, which comprises: a base which is a hollow structure; and an identification device, as mentioned above, which is fixed in the hollow structure.

[0011] A further technical solution is that the base includes: a bottom shell; an upper shell fixed on the bottom shell; wherein the bottom shell and the upper shell form a hollow structure for accommodating the identification device, and the fixing frame and the micro switch are fixed to the lower end of the upper shell.

[0012] A further technical solution is that the base includes: a first base; a second base connected to the first base; wherein the identification device is fixed in a hollow structure of the first base or the second base.

[0013] A further technical solution is that the first base comprises: a drawer opening arranged on a side of the first base; wherein the second base moves in and out of the first base via the drawer opening.

[0014] The beneficial effects of the embodiments of the present utility model are as follows:

[0015] (1) The identification device of the utility model includes a fixed frame and a micro switch fixed in the hollow structure of the base, a swing rod is rotatably arranged in the fixed frame, and a shaft body is slidably arranged in the fixed frame. When the shaft body slides to the first state, the shaft body pushes the first end of the swing rod, and the swing rod rotates to the second end of the swing rod to push the trigger end of the micro switch to the first position, triggering the micro switch. This state can identify that the pot on the base is in place. When the trigger end of the micro switch is reset to the second position, the trigger end pushes the swing rod to rotate to the second angle, and the swing rod rotates to the first end of the swing rod to push the shaft body to slide to the second state. This state can identify that the pot on the base is not in place or no pot is placed. The cooking tool of the utility model can identify whether the pot is in place through the identification device, and automatically heats up after the pot is in place, which is convenient to use.

[0016] In addition, when the shaft is vibrated or touched, the rocker arm needs to be touched first, which makes it difficult to accidentally trigger the micro switch directly, and the cookware recognition accuracy is high.

[0017] (ii) Furthermore, the micro switch is arranged on the side of the fixing frame, and the fixing frame is provided with a first through hole and a second through hole, the second through hole is connected to the side of the first through hole close to the micro switch, and the rotating shaft passes through the swing rod and is connected to the second through hole. The fixing frame and the micro switch of the identification device are installed horizontally in space, and the swing rod rotates in the fixing frame to realize the horizontal transmission between the shaft body and the micro switch, which saves the vertical space in the base, reduces the volume of the kitchenware, and is convenient for use and storage.

[0018] (III) Furthermore, a ring edge is provided on the outer side of the shaft body, and a hollow cylinder is provided on the base. The ring edge slides in the hollow cylinder and guides the shaft body. When the shaft body slides to the first state, the ring edge abuts against the upper end of the fixing frame, and the ring edge prevents the shaft body from sinking too much into the fixing frame when pressed down, causing the swing arm to deflect too much, and the second part of the swing arm to over-compress the micro switch, causing damage to the components, thereby ensuring the service life of the identification device.

[0031] First embodiment:

[0032] This embodiment discloses an identification device 1 .

[0033] Figure 1 It is a structural schematic diagram of the triggering state of the identification device of the utility model. Figure 2 FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram of the structure of the identification device of the utility model in a non-triggering state. Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the identification device 1 is used for a kitchen utensil. The kitchen utensil comprises a base 2, and the base 2 is a hollow structure. For example, the technical solution disclosed in the present invention can be applied to various types of heatable kitchen utensil, such as an electric hot pot, an electric frying pan or an electric steamer.

[0034] The identification device 1 includes a fixed frame 12, a swing rod 13, a shaft body 11 and a micro switch 14. The fixed frame 12 is fixed in the hollow structure, and the swing rod 13 is rotatably arranged in the fixed frame 12. The shaft body 11 is slidably arranged in the fixed frame 12, the first end of the shaft body 11 passes through and is exposed from the base 2, and the second end of the shaft body 11 abuts against the first end of the swing rod 13. The micro switch 14 is fixed in the hollow structure, and the trigger end 141 is elastically connected to the micro switch 14. When the shaft body 11 slides to the first state, the shaft body 11 pushes the first end of the swing rod 13, and the swing rod 13 rotates to the second end of the swing rod 13 to push the trigger end 141 of the micro switch 14 to the first position; when the trigger end 141 of the micro switch 14 is reset to the second position under the action of the elastic force, the trigger end 141 pushes the swing rod 13 to rotate to the second angle, and the swing rod 13 rotates to the first end of the swing rod 13 to push the shaft body 11 to slide to the second state.

[0035] Exemplarily, the first state of the shaft body 11 is a state of being pressed down, at which time the upper end of the shaft body 11 is not exposed on the surface of the base 2, and this state can identify that the pot 3 is placed in place on the base 2. The trigger end 141 is elastically connected to the micro switch 14. When the downward pressure of the shaft body 11 is greater than the elastic force, the trigger end 141 is pushed to the first position by the second end of the swing rod 13. When the shaft body 11 loses the downward pressure, the trigger end 141 can be reset to the second position under the action of the elastic force. The second state of the shaft body 11 is a state of being lifted up by the first end of the swing rod 13, at which time the upper end of the shaft body 11 is exposed on the surface of the base 2, and this state can identify that the pot 3 is not placed in place or no pot 3 is placed on the base 2.

[0036] The identification device 1 of the present invention can identify whether the pot 3 is in place through the states of the shaft 11 and the micro switch 14. After the pot 3 is in place, it is automatically heated, which is convenient to use.

[0037] Second embodiment:

[0038] Based on the first embodiment, the second embodiment further optimizes and refines the identification device 1 .

[0039] Figure 3 FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram of a top view of the identification device of the utility model. Figure 1 to Figure 3 As shown, the micro switch 14 is arranged on the side of the fixing frame 12, and the fixing frame 12 includes a first through hole 121 and a second through hole 122. The second through hole 122 is connected to the first through hole 121 near the micro switch 14. The identification device 1 includes a rotating shaft 123, which is connected to the second through hole 122 and passes through the swing rod 13. Among them, the shaft body 11 is slidably arranged in the first through hole 121.

[0040] Exemplarily, the fixing frame 12 and the micro switch 14 are fixed to the lower end of the upper shell 201. The first through hole 121 is vertically penetrated and opened on the fixing frame 12. The second through hole 122 is vertically penetrated and opened on the fixing frame 12. The rotating shaft 123 is arranged perpendicular to the second through hole 122. The swing rod 13 includes a first part 131, a second part 132 and a connecting part 133. The first part 131 is a straight rod, the second part 132 includes a straight rod parallel to the first part 131 and a straight rod perpendicular to the first part 131, and the connecting part 133 is connected between the first part 131 and the second part 132. Among them, the shaft body 11 is slidably arranged in the first through hole 121, the first part 131 abuts against the shaft body 11, the second part 132 abuts against the trigger end 141, and the rotating shaft 123 passes through the connecting part 133. Preferably, the first part 131, the second part 132 and the connecting part 133 are integrally formed, the abutting part between the first part 131 and the second end of the shaft body 11 is arc-shaped, and the abutting part between the second part 132 and the trigger end 141 of the micro switch 14 is arc-shaped, which reduces the friction between the rocker arm 13 and the shaft body 11 and the trigger end 141 and improves the service life of the components.

[0041] like Figure 1-2 As shown, further, the shaft body 11 includes an annular edge 111, and the annular edge 111 is arranged on the outside of the shaft body 11. The base 2 includes a hollow cylinder 202 and a third through hole 203. The hollow cylinder 202 is arranged on the base 2, and its position corresponds to the shaft body 11. The third through hole 203 is opened at the upper end of the hollow cylinder 202. Among them, the annular edge 111 slides in the hollow cylinder 202, and the first end of the shaft body 11 passes through and exposes the third through hole 203. When the shaft body 11 slides to the first state, the annular edge 111 abuts against the upper end of the fixing frame 12, and the annular edge 111 prevents the shaft body 11 from sinking too much into the fixing frame 12 when being pressed down, so that the swing rod 13 deflects too much, and the second part 132 of the swing rod 13 excessively squeezes the micro switch 14, resulting in component damage.

[0042] In this embodiment, when the identification device 1 is set in the base 2, the fixing frame 12 and the micro switch 14 of the identification device 1 are installed horizontally in space, and the rocker arm 13 rotates in the fixing frame 12 to realize the horizontal transmission between the shaft body 11 and the micro switch 14, thereby saving the vertical space in the base 2, reducing the volume of the kitchen utensils, and facilitating use and storage.

[0043] Third embodiment:

[0044] Figure 4 2 is a cross-sectional view of the kitchenware of the present utility model. Figure 4 As shown, this embodiment discloses a kitchen appliance, which includes a base 2, and the base 2 is a hollow structure. Like the identification device 1 of the first embodiment or the second embodiment, the identification device 1 is fixed in the hollow structure.

[0045] Figure 5 It is an exploded view of the base in the utility model. Figure 5FIG. 1 is an exploded view of the base in the utility model. Figure 5 As shown, the base 2 includes a bottom shell 204 and an upper shell 201. The upper shell 201 is fixed on the bottom shell 204. The bottom shell 204 and the upper shell 201 enclose a hollow structure for accommodating the identification device 1, and the fixing frame 12 and the micro switch 14 are fixed to the lower end of the upper shell 201. According to the technical solution of the first embodiment or the second embodiment, the identification device 1 is suitable for various types of heatable kitchen utensils, such as electric hot pots, electric frying pans or electric steamers.

[0046] Figure 6 This is an axonometric diagram of the kitchenware in the utility model when it is pulled out. Figures 4 to 6 As shown, further, the kitchenware includes a pot 3, and the pot 3 is placed on the base 2. Exemplarily, a groove 206 is provided on the base 2, and the pot 3 is placed on the groove 206. Preferably, a positioning hole 207 is provided in the groove 206, and a support foot is provided at the bottom of the pot 3, and the support foot is inserted into the positioning hole 207, so that the pot 3 can be put into place.

[0047] Further, the kitchenware includes a heating unit 23, and the heating unit 23 is arranged on the base 2. Exemplarily, the heating unit 23 is arranged in the groove 206 to heat the pot 3. The heating unit 23 is an electric heating wire.

[0048] In this embodiment, after the kitchenware is installed with the identification device 1, the identification device 1 can be used to identify whether the pot 3 is placed on the kitchenware. After the pot 3 is placed in place, it is automatically heated, which is convenient to use.

[0049] Fourth embodiment:

[0050] Based on the third embodiment, the fourth embodiment further optimizes and refines the base 2.

[0051] like Figure 6 As shown, the base 2 includes a first base 21 and a second base 22. The second base 22 is connected to the first base 21. The identification device 1 is fixed in the hollow structure of the first base 21 or the second base 22.

[0052] like Figure 6 As shown, illustratively, the first base 21 includes a drawer opening 205, and the drawer opening 205 is arranged on the side of the first base 21. The second base 22 moves in and out of the first base 21 via the drawer opening 205. Of course, in other embodiments of the present invention, the first base 21 can be flipped and connected with the second base 22, and the present invention does not make further restrictions on this.

[0053] In this embodiment, the second base 22 is moved out of the first base 21 through the drawer opening 205, and different ingredients can be cooked on both sides at the same time, thereby improving cooking efficiency. The second base 22 is moved into the hollow structure of the first base 21, and the kitchenware is conveniently stored and occupies little space.

[0054] Fifth embodiment:

[0055] Based on the third embodiment or the fourth embodiment, the fifth embodiment further optimizes and refines the kitchenware.

[0056] Figure 7 It is an axonometric view of the first pot in the kitchenware of the present invention. Figure 8 It is an axonometric view of the second pot in the kitchenware of the present invention. Figure 7 It is an axonometric view of the first pot in the kitchenware of the present invention. Figure 8 This is an axonometric diagram of the second pot in the kitchenware of the present utility model. Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, the kitchenware includes a first pot 31 and a second pot 32. The bottom surface of the first pot 31 has a contact 311 protruding from the bottom surface of the first pot 31. The bottom surface of the second pot 32 is a plane. The contact 311 is used to push the shaft 11 to slide to the first state. Specifically, after the first pot 31 is placed in place, the distance between the contact 311 and the surface of the first base 21 or the second base 22 is greater than the distance of the shaft 11 exposed from the first base 21 or the second base 22, and the weight of the first pot 31 is greater than the elastic force between the trigger end 141 and the micro switch 14, so that the contact 311 can press the shaft 11 to the first state. After the second pot 32 is placed in place, the distance between the bottom surface of the second pot 32 and the surface of the first base 21 or the second base 22 is greater than the distance of the shaft 11 exposed from the first base 21 or the second base 22, and the bottom surface of the second pot 32 cannot contact the shaft 11, and the shaft 11 remains in the second state.

[0057] When this embodiment is working:

[0058] When the first pot 31 is put in place, the contact 311 squeezes the shaft 11, and the shaft 11 squeezes the first end of the swing rod 13 and drives the swing rod 13 to rotate to the first angle. The second end of the swing rod 13 squeezes the trigger end 141 of the micro switch 14 to trigger the identification device 1. When the second pot 32 is put in place, the lower end of the second pot 32 does not contact the shaft 11. When the first pot 31 is taken away, the trigger end 141 of the micro switch 14 rebounds, and the trigger end 141 drives the swing rod 13 to rotate to the second angle. The first end of the swing rod 13 lifts the shaft 11 to the second state, and the identification device 1 is reset.

[0059] In this embodiment, the kitchenware can identify whether the pot 3 is equipped with the corresponding contact 311 through the identification device 1, so as to identify different types of pots 3 and perform different cooking methods for different pots 3. The functions are comprehensive and can meet the needs of users.

[0060] The technical features of the above-described embodiments may be arbitrarily combined. To make the description concise, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above-described embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.

[0061] The above-mentioned embodiments only express several implementation methods of the utility model, and the description is relatively specific and detailed, but it cannot be understood as limiting the scope of the utility model patent. It should be pointed out that for ordinary technicians in this field, several modifications and improvements can be made without departing from the concept of the utility model, which all belong to the protection scope of the utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of the utility model patent shall be based on the attached claims.
