Fully automatic cooking robot

Abstract

A fully automatic cooking robot includes a main body, a wok, a posture adjustment device, and a rinsing system. The main body has a cooking cavity, and the wok is rotatably positioned between the left and right side walls of the cooking cavity. The posture adjustment device includes a driver and a synchronous belt drive system. The driver is fixedly mounted on the main body. One synchronous belt pulley of the synchronous belt drive system is connected to the output end of the driver, and the other synchronous belt pulley is connected to the rotating shaft of the wok. The posture adjustment device drives the wok to rotate and positions it in three postures: a first posture, a second posture, and a third posture. The rinsing system rinses the wok's interior when it is in the third posture. The third opening of the wok faces downwards, and the wastewater from rinsing the wok by the rinsing system hardly splashes out of the cooking cavity, reducing pollution to the surrounding environment.

Claims

1. A fully automatic cooking robot, comprising a main body, a wok, a posture adjustment device, and a rinsing system; the main body has a cooking cavity, with a first opening communicating with the cooking cavity on its front side and a second opening communicating with the cooking cavity on its upper side; the wok is a cylindrical cavity structure with a third opening on its circumferential surface, the wok is rotatably disposed between the left and right side walls of the cooking cavity in the main body, and its rotation axis coincides with its central axis; the posture adjustment device includes a driver and a synchronous belt drive system, the driver is fixedly disposed on the main body, one synchronous pulley of the synchronous belt drive system is connected to the output end of the driver, and the other synchronous pulley is connected to the rotating shaft of the wok, the posture adjustment device is used to drive the wok to rotate and to position the wok in a first posture, a second posture, and a third posture; wherein: When the wok is in the first position, the third opening faces upward; when the wok is in the third position, the third opening faces downward; when the wok is in the second position, it is between the first and second positions, and the angle is greater than 90°; the rinsing system is used to rinse the inner cavity of the wok when it is in the third position.

2. The fully automatic cooking robot as described in claim 1 further includes a posture detection mechanism, which includes a light-shielding plate, a bracket, and a first photoelectric sensor, a second photoelectric sensor, and a third photoelectric sensor. The light-shielding plate is fixedly connected to the rotating shaft of the wok, and the bracket is fixed to the main body. The first photoelectric sensor, the second photoelectric sensor, and the third photoelectric sensor are all fixed to the bracket. When the light-shielding plate rotates with the rotating shaft of the wok, it will trigger the first photoelectric sensor, the second photoelectric sensor, and the third photoelectric sensor. When the first photoelectric sensor, the second photoelectric sensor, and the third photoelectric sensor are triggered, the wok is in the first posture, the second posture, and the third posture, respectively.

3. The fully automatic cooking robot as described in claim 2, wherein the posture adjustment mechanism further includes a first limit switch and a second limit switch, both of which are fixed on the bracket. When the light-shielding plate rotates with the rotating shaft of the wok, the first limit switch and the second limit switch will be triggered. In the circumferential direction of the rotation of the light-shielding plate with the rotating shaft of the wok, the first photoelectric sensor is located between the first limit switch and the second photoelectric sensor, and the third photoelectric sensor is located between the second limit switch and the second photoelectric sensor.

4. The fully automatic cooking robot as claimed in claim 1, wherein the rinsing system includes a rinsing pipeline, a booster pump and a rinsing nozzle, the booster pump being connected to the rinsing pipeline and the rinsing nozzle being connected to the end of the rinsing pipeline and disposed at the bottom of the cooking chamber.

5. The fully automatic cooking robot as described in claim 4, wherein a wastewater tank is provided at the bottom of the cooking chamber, and the rinsing nozzle is disposed in the wastewater tank.

6. The fully automatic cooking robot as described in claim 5, wherein a filter screen is provided in the wastewater tank and the rinsing nozzle passes through the filter screen.

7. The fully automatic cooking robot as described in claim 1, wherein the wok is provided with a barrier connected to the edge of the third opening.

8. The fully automatic cooking robot as described in claim 1 or 7, wherein a baffle is provided on each of the front and rear sides of the first opening, and the distance between the two baffles gradually decreases from top to bottom.
