In the above patent document, the stir-frying system including the cooking pot, the stirring device and the burner is fixedly installed on the workbench as a whole, making it difficult to carry out a reasonable layout design for other systems or devices in the cooking device. Summary of the Invention

[0005] Aiming at the deficiencies of the prior art, the main object of the present invention is to provide a cooking device that is convenient for overall reasonable layout design to simplify the product structure and promote its miniaturization.

[0006] To achieve the above main object, the present invention provides a cooking device, including a control system and a stir-frying system; wherein, the stir-frying system includes a cooking pot, at least one stir-frying device, and a heating device for directly and / or indirectly heating the ingredients in the cooking pot; the stir-frying system is movably arranged on the workbench of the cooking device as a whole and changes its position on the workbench under the control of the control system.

[0007] In the present invention, the stir-frying system is preferably arranged to be rotatable and / or translatable in the horizontal plane as a whole, and can also be arranged to include a lifting movement in the vertical direction or vertical plane.

[0008] In the present invention, the frying and stirring device may be a material turning / stirring device, which is arranged inside the cooking pan or relatively independently and can be moved into and out of the cooking pan. The material turning / stirring device is used to directly turn / stir the material to make the material mixed and heated evenly; the frying and stirring device may also be a moving device of the cooking pan, which makes the material in the cooking pan move and mix and be heated evenly by making the cooking pan move; the frying and stirring device may also include both the material turning / stirring device and the moving device of the cooking pan. For example, the frying and stirring device is a moving device for turning / shaking / tossing / spinning / swinging / dragging the pan. The specific implementation manners thereof can be referred to the disclosures of Chinese patent documents such as CN1830370A, CN104887086A, CN101222869A, CN104887042A, CN104887084A, CN1803073A or CN104887085A, etc. The cooking systems disclosed in these patent documents can all be used as the cooking system of the present invention.

[0009] In the present invention, the heating device may be a hot air heating device, an infrared heating device, etc. that directly heats the material / heating medium, or an electromagnetic heating device, a gas heating device, etc. that indirectly heats the material / heating medium, or a combination of multiple heating devices (such as a combination of a hot air heating device and an electromagnetic heating device).

[0010] In the present invention, the cooking system is movably arranged on the workbench of the cooking equipment as a whole and changes its position on the workbench under the control of the control system, so that it can move between a material receiving position, a cooking position, a discharging position, a cleaning position, etc., which is convenient for the overall layout design of the cooking equipment, is beneficial to realizing the miniaturization of the product, and is also convenient for cleaning the workbench surface and the cooking pan. Among them, the cooking system may have only one or multiple different material receiving positions, cooking positions, discharging positions, and cleaning positions; and some of the material receiving position, cooking position, discharging position, and cleaning position may be the same.

[0011] According to a specific implementation manner of the present invention, the frying and stirring device includes a material turning / stirring device arranged inside the cooking pan and coaxial with the cooking pan. The cooking system includes a rotating mechanism that drives the cooking pan and the material turning / stirring device to rotate synchronously or asynchronously around the central axis of the cooking pan, and a flipping mechanism that drives the cooking pan to flip in the vertical plane.

[0012] In the above technical solution, the cooking pan and the material turning / stirring device can rotate synchronously or asynchronously, enabling multiple different cooking modes and facilitating the improvement of the material frying and mixing effect and the heat uniformity. The turning mechanism drives the cooking pan to turn in the vertical plane to adjust the angle between the central axis of the cooking pan and the horizontal plane according to requirements, facilitating the feeding before and / or during cooking, the uniform distribution of the material in the cooking pan during cooking, the discharging after cooking, and the cleaning of the cooking pan.

[0013] As a more specific embodiment of the present invention, the rotating mechanism includes a first motor that can drive the cooking pan to rotate through a first gear transmission mechanism and a second motor that can drive the material turning / stirring device to rotate through a second gear transmission mechanism; wherein, the rotating mechanism is configured to drive the cooking pan and the material turning / stirring device to rotate synchronously by the first motor or the second motor alone. The cooking pan and the material turning / stirring device are driven by the same motor to achieve synchronous rotation, simplifying the system structure and its control.

[0014] As an example of the rotating mechanism configured to drive the cooking pan and the material turning / stirring device to rotate synchronously by the first motor alone, the first gear transmission mechanism includes a first gear provided on the rotating shaft of the cooking pan, a second gear meshing with the first gear, a third gear provided on the same rotating shaft as the second gear, and a first clutch, and the second gear transmission mechanism includes a fourth gear provided on the stirring rotating shaft, a fifth gear driven by the second motor, and a second clutch; the third gear can be driven by the first clutch to switch between an engaged position meshing with the fourth gear and a non-engaged position not meshing with the fourth gear, and the fifth gear can be driven by the second clutch to switch between an engaged position meshing with the fourth gear and a non-engaged position not meshing with the fourth gear.

[0015] The cooking device of the present invention may further include a feeding device that feeds materials into the cooking pan under the control of the control system. The feeding device includes a cartridge assembly having one or more cartridges, a moving mechanism for driving the cartridge assembly to move, and a turning mechanism for driving the cartridges in the cartridge assembly to turn and feed materials. Among them, the feeding device may include a plurality of cartridges distributed in a straight line, a curve, or a ring. After the container driving device drives the cartridge to the feeding position, the turning mechanism turns the cartridge to feed materials. As an example of the feeding device including a plurality of cartridges distributed in a straight line, reference may be made to the feeding devices disclosed in, for example, Chinese Patent Documents CN104643942A, CN101637357A, or CN101683236A, etc.

[0016] Preferably, the ingredient box assembly is detachably mounted on the moving mechanism. In this way, before cooking, the ingredient box assembly with standardized side dishes provided by professional side dish suppliers can be simply mounted on the rotating base, significantly improving cooking efficiency. After cooking, the ingredient box assembly can be recycled by the side dish suppliers. Even when preparing side dishes on-site, since the ingredient box assembly is detachable, it is easy to clean the residual materials in the ingredient box, avoiding the influence of the residual materials from the previous cooking on subsequent cooking.

[0017] Preferably, the ingredient box assembly includes a plurality of ingredient boxes arranged in a ring, and the moving mechanism is a rotating mechanism that drives the ingredient box assembly to rotate around its rotation center. The multiple ingredient boxes in the ingredient box assembly are annularly distributed, which has the advantages of simple and compact structure, facilitating the miniaturization of the ingredient box assembly.

[0018] The cooking device of the present invention may further include an oil treatment system, which includes an oil pan, a lubricating oil container with leakage holes, and a container driving device that drives the lubricating oil container to move between a heating position and a discharging position. The feeding device is also used to feed the material to be processed into the lubricating oil container, and the oil treatment system discharges the processed material into the cooking pan at the discharging position of its treatment container. The oil treatment system refers to a system that uses edible oil as a heating medium to perform preliminary cooking treatment on the material (such as lubricating oil treatment, pre-frying treatment).

[0019] The cooking device of the present invention may further include a blanching system, which includes a water pan, a blanching container with leakage holes, and a container driving device that drives the blanching container to move between a heating position and a discharging position. The feeding device is also used to feed the material to be processed into the blanching container, and the blanching system can discharge the processed material into the ingredient box of the feeding device at the discharging position of its treatment container. The blanching system refers to a system that uses hot water as a heating medium to perform preliminary cooking treatment on the material (such as blanching treatment or pre-boiling treatment).

[0020] The material processed by the blanching system can be put into the lubricating oil container for further lubricating oil treatment or into the cooking pan for cooking during subsequent processing. That is to say, the feeding device is not only used to achieve the feeding function, but also used to realize the material transfer between the blanching system and the cooking system and between the blanching system and the oil treatment system. The feeding device has both the feeding function and the material transfer function between the corresponding systems, significantly simplifying the structure of the cooking device and facilitating the reasonable layout between the systems in the cooking device to achieve product miniaturization.

[0035] Figure 1 and 2Overall, it shows the structure of a preferred embodiment of the cooking device of the present invention. As Figure 1 and 2 shown, the cooking device includes a stir-frying system 10, a feeding device 20, a blanching system 30, and an oil treatment system 40 that operate under the control of a control system; among them, the feeding device 20 includes a plurality of material boxes 222 arranged in a ring (see Figure 6 ), the stir-frying system 10, the blanching system 30, and the oil treatment system 40 are distributed around the feeding device 20, and the oil treatment system 40 is arranged between the stir-frying system 10 and the blanching system 30.

[0036] The control system has a display and operation panel 50 located at the upper left part of the cooking device cabinet 100, and a plurality of operation keys such as start and emergency stop are arranged on the right side of the panel 50. A disinfection cabinet 101 is provided at the lower part of the cabinet 100, and a storage space for placing the waste oil barrel 400 is provided on the left side of the disinfection cabinet 101. The waste cooking oil after being used by the oil treatment system 40 can be discharged through a pipeline into the waste oil barrel 400 for temporary storage. A workbench 102 is formed at the upper part of the cabinet 100, and a vegetable plate bracket 103 is provided at a position slightly higher than the workbench 102 on the left side of the workbench 102. The vegetable plate bracket 103 can be rotated upward to its folded position; a cleaning water gun 104 is provided on the front side of the cabinet 100.

[0037] The stir-frying system 10 is integrally rotatably arranged on the workbench 102, so that it can move between different positions according to the control instructions of the control system. For example, Figure 1 and 2 in, the stir-frying system 10 is in the first material receiving position, and the stir-frying system 10 receives the materials fed by the feeding device 20 at this first material receiving position; Figure 3 in, the stir-frying system 10 is in the second material receiving position, and the stir-frying system 10 receives the materials fed by the lubricating oil container 41 of the oil treatment system 40 at this second material receiving position.

[0038] The stir-frying system 10 includes a base 11 rotatably arranged on the workbench 102. The base 11 has a vertical part 111. A cooking pan 12 and a pan cover 13 are flipably arranged on the base 11. The stir-frying system 10 also has a rotation mechanism and a flip mechanism connected to the cooking pan 12; the rotation mechanism drives the cooking pan 12 to rotate around its central axis, and the flip mechanism drives the cooking pan 12 to flip in the vertical plane. Since the base 11 can rotate and / or move, in other embodiments of the present invention, it is entirely possible to provide more than two cooking pans on the base of each stir-frying system, and each cooking pan is provided with an independent rotation mechanism and flip mechanism. Through the rotation and / or movement of the base, the position transformation of each cooking pan between its material receiving position, stir-frying position, discharging position, and cleaning position can be realized.

[0039] See Figure 4 and 5, the cooking pan 12 may have a pot body in a barrel shape, a spherical crown shape, an ellipsoidal shape or a composite shape thereof, and a discharge guiding notch 121 is provided at the mouth of the cooking pan 12; a material turning / stirring device 15 is arranged in the cooking pan 12, and the stirring rotating shaft of the material turning / stirring device 15 penetrates through the pot rotating shaft. The material turning / stirring device 15 forms a composite shape of a sheet shape and a rod shape, and is arranged adjacent to the inner wall of the cooking pan 12 and cooperates with the inner wall. The cooking pan 12 is rotatably carried on the pot base body 140, and the pot base body 140 is connected to the vertical part 111 of the base 11 through a turning shaft.

[0040] The rotating mechanism of the cooking system includes a first motor 143 that can drive the cooking pan 12 to rotate through a first gear transmission mechanism and a second motor 147 that can drive the material turning / stirring device 15 to rotate through a second gear transmission mechanism. Among them, the first gear transmission mechanism includes a first gear 141 arranged on the pot rotating shaft, a second gear 144 meshing with the first gear 141, a third gear 1451 arranged on the same rotating shaft as the second gear 144, and a first electromagnetic clutch 145. The second gear transmission mechanism includes a fourth gear 142 arranged on the stirring rotating shaft, a fifth gear 1461 driven by the second motor 147, and a second electromagnetic clutch 146. The third gear 1451 can be driven by the first electromagnetic clutch 145 to switch between a meshing position meshing with the fourth gear 142 and a non-meshing position not meshing with the fourth gear 142; the fifth gear 1461 can be driven by the second electromagnetic clutch 146 to switch between a meshing position meshing with the fourth gear 142 and a non-meshing position not meshing with the fourth gear 142.

[0041] Through the above settings, the material turning / stirring device 15 and the cooking pan 12 can achieve the following multiple working states: ⑴ When the motor 143 does not work, and the gear 1451 does not mesh with the gear 142 and the gear 1461 meshes with the gear 142, the motor 147 works to drive the material turning / stirring device 15 to rotate; ⑵ When the gear 1451 meshes with the gear 142 and the gear 1461 does not mesh with the gear 142, the motor 143 works to drive the material turning / stirring device 15 and the cooking pan 12 to rotate synchronously; ⑶ When the gear 1451 does not mesh with the gear 142 and the gear 1461 meshes with the gear 142, the motor 143 drives the cooking pan 12 to rotate, and the motor 147 drives the material turning / stirring device 15 to rotate, so as to achieve asynchronous rotation of the cooking pan 12 and the material turning / stirring device 15, that is, same-direction non-synchronous rotation or reverse rotation.

[0042] In other embodiments of the present invention, the material turning / stirring device 15 and the cooking pan 12 can be simply driven to rotate by two motors respectively. In this embodiment, there is no need to set a clutch device such as an electromagnetic clutch.

[0043] The cookware base 140 is disposed within the cookware cover 13 and fixedly connected to the cookware cover 13. An electromagnetic heating device for heating the cooking cookware 12 is provided within the cookware cover 13. The cookware cover 13 and the components disposed therein and attached thereto are integrally carried by a turning shaft, which is driven by a turning drive motor disposed within the vertical portion 111, thereby driving the cooking cookware 12 to turn.

[0044] Figure 6 is an exploded view of the components of the feeding device 20, Figure 7 and is its three-dimensional structure diagram. Refer to Figure 6-7 , the feeding device 20 includes a drive assembly 21 and a cartridge assembly 22; the drive assembly 21 has a base 211 and a cartridge rotation mechanism and a cartridge turning mechanism disposed on the frame 211. Among them, the cartridge rotation mechanism includes a motor 213 as a rotation drive device and a rotating base 212, and the motor 213 drives the rotating base 212 to rotate in a horizontal plane. The rotating base 212 includes a rotating shaft 2121 and an annular bearing portion 2122 disposed on the rotating shaft 2121, and the rotating shaft 2121 and the annular bearing portion 2122 are formed as a single body; an installation guide groove 2123 is formed on the outer periphery of the rotating shaft 2121, and the installation guide groove 2123 extends downward along its axial direction from the top of the rotating shaft 2121.

[0045] The cartridge turning mechanism includes a motor 214 as a turning drive device and an L-shaped feeding lever 215. The feeding lever 215 is disposed at the position of the base 211 corresponding to the cartridge feeding position and can be driven by the motor 214 to rotate in a vertical plane. In practical applications, the base 211 is provided with a cartridge turning mechanism at positions corresponding to the cooking system 10, the blanching system 30, and the oil treatment system 40; for simplicity, Figure 6 only the cartridge turning mechanism corresponding to the cooking system 10 is schematically shown in

[0046] The cartridge assembly 22 has an annular cartridge holder 221, a plurality of cartridges 222, and a handle 223. The plurality of cartridges 222 are annularly distributed around the rotation axis of the annular cartridge holder 221 (i.e., the rotation center of the feeding device 20), and an avoidance hole 2211 is formed in the area of the annular cartridge holder 221 corresponding to the bottom of the cartridge 222. The plurality of cartridges 222 include a large cartridge 222A with a relatively large volume and a small cartridge 222B with a relatively small volume; the large cartridge 222A is used to hold the main and auxiliary materials with a large usage amount, and the small cartridge 222B is used to hold the seasonings and flavorings with a small usage amount. A turning guide groove 2222 is provided at the bottom of the cartridge 222, and a cartridge rotating shaft 2221 fixedly connected thereto is provided on the outer side of the cartridge holder 221. During feeding, the cartridge 222 is driven by the feeding lever 215 to turn outward of the cartridge holder 221 to complete feeding.

[0047] The handle 223 is formed into a rod shape extending upward above the cartridge 222, and its central axis coincides with the rotation axis of the annular cartridge holder 221; the handle 223 has a plug hole with an open bottom, and an installation guide protrusion cooperating with the installation guide groove 2123 is formed in the plug hole. A plug-in shaft hole fit is formed between the rotary shaft 2121 and the plug hole of the handle 223, so that the cartridge assembly 22 can be manually detachably installed on the drive assembly 21. The operator can hold the handle 23, align the guide protrusion in the plug hole with the installation guide groove 2123, and then press the cartridge assembly 22 downward until its bottom contacts the bearing portion 2122 to complete the installation of the cartridge assembly 22; correspondingly, the operator can hold the handle 223 and lift the cartridge assembly 22 upward until the plug hole is separated from the rotary shaft 2121 to complete the disassembly of the cartridge assembly 22.

[0048] During feeding, according to a predetermined program (such as the feeding timing and sequence set by the cooking program), the motor 213 drives the rotary base 212 to rotate a predetermined angle. While the rotary base 212 rotates, it drives the corresponding cartridge 222 containing the required material to be fed in the cartridge assembly 22 to rotate to the corresponding feeding position; then, the motor 214 drives the feeding lever 215 to rotate upward, so that the free end of the feeding lever 215 enters the flipping guide groove 2222, and the cartridge 222 is flipped outward toward the cartridge holder 221 under the drive of the feeding lever 215 for feeding. After the feeding is completed, the motor 214 drives the feeding lever 215 to rotate in the reverse direction, thereby driving the corresponding cartridge 222 to reset.

[0049] In other embodiments of the present invention, the cartridge assembly can also be installed on the drive assembly in a non-detachable manner or in a manner that requires tools for disassembly.

[0050] The blanching system 30 uses water as the heating medium, and the oil treatment system 40 uses oil as the heating medium; in this embodiment, their structures can be basically the same, and the structure of the blanching system 30 will be described as an example here. As Figure 8 and 9 shown, the blanching system 30 includes a spherical blanching container 31 with leakage holes, a water pot 33, an electromagnetic / gas heating device for heating the water pot 33, and a container driving device for driving the blanching container 31 to rotate. The container driving device includes a rotating arm 32 and a motor for driving the rotating arm 32 to rotate in the vertical plane; the blanching container 31 is arranged at the free end of the rotating arm 32, and a material stirring / dispersing mechanism 35 is rotatably arranged in the blanching container 31. The material stirring / dispersing mechanism 35 is driven by a rotation driving device arranged on the rotating arm 32 to rotate bidirectionally, and the rotation driving device can be a motor arranged in the motor box 321. As Figure 9As shown, the material stirring / dispersing mechanism 35 is a comb-shaped movable dispersing tool, which cooperates with the comb-shaped fixed dispersing tool 34 fixedly arranged in the blanching container 31 when rotating counterclockwise to shear and disperse the material.

[0051] To prevent the material from being pushed / pulled out of the blanching container 31 during stirring, a material guiding bevel 311 is formed at the edge of the mouth of the blanching container 31. If any material is pushed / pulled to the upper part of the blanching container 31 during counterclockwise stirring, it will also fall back into the blanching container 31 under the guidance of the material guiding bevel 311. In other embodiments of the present invention, the blanching container 31 can be a container in the shape of a cylinder, an ellipsoid, etc.

[0052] The cooking device may further include: an oil filling system for filling oil into the oil pan of the oil treatment system 40 and an oil discharging system for discharging the heated oil in the oil pan, Figure 9 The nozzle 46 of the oil filling system is shown in; a water spraying system for adding water into the water pan 33 of the blanching system 30 and performing cold shower treatment on the material after blanching, and a drainage system for discharging the heated / cold shower water in the water pan 33, Figure 9 The nozzle 36 of the water spraying system is shown in.

[0053] When using the blanching system 30 to perform blanching treatment on the material, first as Figure 10 shown, the feeding device 20 pours the material to be blanched in the large material box 222A into the blanching container 31 at the heating position, and uses hot water to perform pre-cooking treatment on the material for a predetermined time; then as Figure 9 shown, the rotating arm 32 rotates upward to the cold shower position to separate the blanching container 31 from the hot water, and the nozzle 36 sprays cooling water into the blanched material in the blanching container 31 for cold shower treatment, and the cooling water is discharged through the blanching container 31; after draining, as Figure 11 shown, the rotating arm 32 continues to rotate upward to make the blanching container 31 reach the discharging position, and the blanching container 31 pours the material into and / or the material stirring / dispersing mechanism 35 rotates clockwise to push / pull the material out of the processing container 35 and fall into the material box of the feeding device 20.

[0054] According to the control of the cooking program, the feeding device 20 transports the blanched material to the oil treatment system 40 for further treatment, such as oil sliding treatment, Figure 12 shows the state of the feeding device feeding materials into the oil sliding container 41 of the oil treatment system 40; alternatively, the feeding device 20 directly transports the blanched material into the cooking pan 12 for cooking. The preferred embodiment of the cooking device includes an oil spraying system for automatically adding oil into the cooking pan 12 before or during cooking and a water spraying system for automatically adding water, Figure 9 The nozzle part 60 of the oil spraying system and the water spraying system is shown in. After cooking is completed, as Figure 13As shown, the cooking system 10 rotates as a whole to the discharging position, and the cooking container 12 is turned downward to pour the dish into the dish placed on the dish tray 103.

[0055] In addition, in other embodiments, both the oil treatment system 40 and the blanching system 30 may each have two relatively independent treatment containers; for example, the blanching system 30 has two blanching containers, and these two blanching containers may be located in the same water pot or two different heated water pots during material processing to simultaneously perform operations such as blanching on two portions of materials.

[0056] Although the present invention has been depicted through specific embodiments above, it should be understood that equivalent improvements made in accordance with the present invention by those of ordinary skill in the art without departing from the scope of the present invention shall be covered by the protection scope of the present invention.
