[0034] It should be noted that, in the absence of conflict, the embodiments and features in the embodiments of the present application can be combined with each other. The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and in combination with the embodiments.

[0035] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all of the embodiments. The following description of at least one exemplary embodiment is actually only illustrative and is by no means intended to limit the present application and its application or use. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0036] It should be noted that the terms used herein are only for describing specific embodiments and are not intended to limit the exemplary embodiments according to the present application. As used herein, unless the context clearly indicates otherwise, the singular form is also intended to include the plural form. In addition, it should be understood that when the terms "comprise" and / or "include" are used in this specification, it indicates the presence of features, steps, operations, devices, components and / or combinations thereof.

[0037] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the cooking utensil of this embodiment includes a pot body 10, a pot cover 20, a pressure limiting valve 40, a driving structure 50 and a control device. The pot body 10 is used to hold the food to be cooked. The pot cover 20 is arranged on the pot body 10, and an exhaust passage 30 is arranged on the pot cover 20. The pressure limiting valve 40 includes a pressure limiting valve body 41 and a counterweight 42 arranged on the pressure limiting valve body 41. The driving structure 50 cooperates with the counterweight 42, and the driving structure 50 can drive the counterweight 42 to separate from the pressure limiting valve body 41. Further, when the counterweight 42 and the pressure limiting valve body 41 act together on the exhaust passage 30, the control device runs the first cooking mode, and when the driving structure 50 drives the counterweight 42 to separate from the pressure limiting valve body 41, the control device runs the second cooking mode.

[0038] By applying the technical solution of this embodiment, when the counterweight 42 and the pressure limiting valve body 41 act together on the exhaust passage 30, the control device operates in the first cooking mode, and when the driving structure 50 drives the counterweight 42 to separate from the pressure limiting valve body 41, the control device operates in the second cooking mode. The above structure enables the control device to automatically operate the corresponding cooking program according to the different positions of the counterweight 42 when the cooking appliance is working, so that the cooking appliance operates the most suitable cooking program at the moment, thereby ensuring the cooking effect. Therefore, the technical solution of this embodiment solves the problem that the user is prone to select an incorrect cooking mode in the electric pressure cooker in the prior art, which leads to poor cooking effect.

[0039] It should be noted that the above-mentioned detachment of the counterweight 42 from the pressure-limiting valve body 41 means that the gravity of the counterweight 42 does not act on the pressure-limiting valve body 41, that is, the gravity of the pressure-limiting valve body 41 only acts on the exhaust passage 30. In the case where the counterweight 42 is detached from the pressure-limiting valve body 41, the counterweight 42 may be connected to the pressure-limiting valve body 41 through the connection structure, but the gravity of the counterweight 42 does not act on the pressure-limiting valve body 41.

[0040] It should be noted that the above-mentioned detachment of the counterweight 42 from the pressure-limiting valve body 41 means that the gravity of the counterweight 42 does not act on the pressure-limiting valve body 41, that is, the gravity of the pressure-limiting valve body 41 only acts on the exhaust passage 30. In the case where the counterweight 42 is detached from the pressure-limiting valve body 41, the counterweight 42 may be connected to the pressure-limiting valve body 41 through the connection structure, but the gravity of the counterweight 42 does not act on the pressure-limiting valve body 41.

[0041] like Fig.10 As shown, in the technical solution of this embodiment, the first cooking mode includes: keeping the pressure in the pot body 10 at a first preset pressure and continuously heating. Specifically, when the counterweight 42 and the pressure limiting valve body 41 act together on the exhaust channel 30, the pressure in the pot body 10 limited by the pressure limiting valve 40 is relatively large, so the first preset pressure can be set relatively large accordingly. Preferably, the first preset pressure is in the range of 90KPa to 110KPa. Within the above pressure range, cooking under high pressure can be performed, such as: "making soup", "stewing", "nutritional steaming" and "waterless baking".

[0042] like Fig.10 As shown, in the technical solution of this embodiment, the second cooking mode includes: keeping the pressure in the pot body 10 at a second preset pressure and continuing heating. Specifically, when the counterweight 42 is separated from the pressure-limiting valve body 41, the pressure-limiting valve body 41 only acts on the exhaust channel 30. At this time, the pressure limited by the pressure-limiting valve 40 in the pot body 10 is relatively small. Therefore, the second preset pressure is set relatively small. Preferably, the second preset pressure is in the range of 20KPa to 40KPa. Under the above pressure, cooking under low pressure can be performed, such as: "cooking rice", "cooking porridge", "quick cooking rice" and "grain porridge".

[0043] It should be noted that the cooking pressure in the first cooking mode is greater than the cooking pressure in the second cooking mode, so in the first cooking mode, the heating power of the heating device in the pot body 10 is greater than the heating power of the heating device in the second cooking mode. Accordingly, the temperature in the pot body 10 in the first cooking mode is greater than the temperature in the pot body 10 in the second cooking mode.

[0044] like Figure 4As shown, in the technical solution of this embodiment, a metal part 421 is provided on the counterweight 42, and the driving structure 50 includes a magnetic part 51, and the magnetic part 51 attracts the metal part 421 to separate the counterweight 42 from the pressure-limiting valve body 41. Specifically, when the distance between the magnetic part 51 and the metal part 421 is close enough, the magnetic part 51 attracts the metal part 421 to make the counterweight 42 rise. At this time, the pressure-limiting valve body 41 no longer supports the counterweight 42, that is, the pressure-limiting valve body 41 acts alone on the exhaust passage 30. When the distance between the magnetic part 51 and the metal part 421 is far, the magnetic force exerted by the magnetic part 51 on the metal part 421 is not enough to attract the metal part 421, and at this time, the counterweight 42 and the pressure-limiting valve body 41 act together on the exhaust passage 30.

[0045] The driving structure 50 also includes a swing rod 52, which is swingably disposed in the pot cover 20. The magnetic component 51 is disposed on the swing rod 52. When the swing rod 52 swings, the magnetic component 51 can be aligned or misaligned with the metal component 421. When the magnetic component 51 is misaligned with the metal component 421, the counterweight 42 and the pressure-limiting valve body 41 act together on the exhaust passage 30. When the magnetic component 51 is aligned with the metal component 421, the magnetic component 51 attracts the metal component 421 to separate the counterweight 42 from the pressure-limiting valve body 41. Specifically, when the swing rod 52 swings, the swing rod 52 can drive the magnetic component 51 to move together. Figures 4 to 6 It can be seen that when the swing rod 52 swings to the right end, the magnetic member 51 and the metal member 421 are aligned vertically, and the magnetic member 51 attracts the metal member 421 to make the counterweight 42 rise. Figures 7 to 9 It can be seen that when the swing rod 52 swings to the left end, the magnetic component 51 and the metal component 421 are misaligned in the horizontal direction. At this time, the magnetic force exerted by the magnetic component 51 on the metal component 421 is not sufficient to attract the metal component 421.

[0046] The driving structure 50 further includes a driving motor 53, a first end of the swing rod 52 is connected to the motor shaft of the driving motor 53, and the magnetic member 51 is disposed at the second end of the swing rod 52. Specifically, when the motor shaft of the driving motor 53 rotates, the swing rod 52 is driven to rotate together. Preferably, the driving motor 53 can be a stepping motor to ensure the control accuracy.

[0047] The cooking appliance further includes a detection structure 70, which detects the position of the swing rod 52, and the control device runs the first cooking mode or the second cooking mode according to the detection result of the detection structure 70. Specifically, by detecting the position of the swing rod 52, the relative position between the magnetic part 51 and the metal part 421 can be determined, and then it can be determined whether the counterweight block 42 is sucked up, and finally it can be determined whether the pressure limiting valve body 41 acts on the exhaust passage 30 alone, or the counterweight block 42 and the pressure limiting valve body 41 act on the exhaust passage 30 together. When the detection structure 70 determines that the counterweight block 42 and the pressure limiting valve body 41 act on the exhaust passage 30 together, the control device automatically runs the first cooking program. When the detection structure 70 determines that the pressure limiting valve body 41 acts on the exhaust passage 30 alone, the control device automatically runs the second cooking program.

[0048] The detection structure 70 is a magnetic induction structure, which detects the magnetic induction intensity of the magnetic member 51. Figure 4 and Figure 7 It can be seen that the magnetic induction structure is arranged on the left side of the swing rod 52. Figure 4 When the swing rod 52 swings to the middle position, the magnetic induction structure detects that the magnetic field strength of the magnetic member 51 is small. Figure 7 When the position of the pendulum 52 is in the middle, the magnetic induction structure detects that the magnetic field strength of the magnetic member 51 is relatively large. Therefore, the magnetic induction structure can determine the position of the pendulum 52 by determining the magnetic field strength of the magnetic member 51.

[0049] Preferably, the magnetic induction structure is a reed switch or a Hall sensor.

[0050] In the technical solution of the present embodiment, the cooking utensil further includes a detection device, which is connected to the control device, and the detection device is used to detect cooking parameters, and the control device determines whether the cooking parameters match the preset parameters in the running cooking mode. Specifically, the detection device is a sensor structure, such as a temperature sensor. For example, when the control device determines that the counterweight block 42 and the pressure limiting valve body 41 act together on the exhaust channel 30, the control device automatically runs the first cooking program. During the process of the cooking utensil running the first cooking program, the detection device obtains the cooking parameters of the cooking utensil, such as cooking pressure and cooking temperature. And the above parameters are transmitted back to the control device. The control device compares the above parameters with the preset parameters in the first cooking program. If the comparison result is significantly different, the control device controls the heating device to correct the cooking parameters.

[0051] like Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, in the technical solution of this embodiment, the pot cover 20 includes an inner lining 21, a surface cover 22 arranged on the inner lining 21, and an inner pot cover 23 arranged below the inner lining 21, an exhaust passage 30 and a pressure limiting valve 40 are arranged on the inner pot cover 23, and a driving structure 50 is arranged on the inner lining 21. Further, the exhaust passage 30 is an exhaust pipe, and the exhaust pipe passes through the inner pot cover 23 from top to bottom.

[0052] In the present embodiment, the position control of the counterweight 42 is achieved by driving the swing rod 52 to swing and driving the magnetic member 51 to move by the motor. When the control method for the counterweight 42 is not limited to the above method, for example, in an embodiment not shown, the drive structure 50 includes a manual operating member, and the operation of the manual operating member can cause the counterweight 42 to be separated from the pressure-limiting valve body 41. Specifically, the manual operating member can be manually operated by the user, for example, the manual operating member includes a button arranged on the pot body 10 or the pot cover 20, and a transmission member arranged between the button and the counterweight 42, and the transmission member can be a lever, a swing rod and other structures. When the user presses the button, the counterweight 42 can be separated from the pressure-limiting valve body. Further, a position holding mechanism and a reset mechanism can be provided at the button.

[0053] Further, in the above-mentioned embodiment of manually controlling the position of the counterweight 42, the cooking appliance further comprises a detection structure 70, the detection structure 70 detects the position of the manual operating member, and the control device runs the first cooking mode or the second cooking mode according to the detection result of the detection structure 70. Specifically, the detection structure 70 can determine the position of the counterweight 42 by detecting the position of the manual operating member. For example, when the detection structure 70 determines that the manual operating member is in the first position and the counterweight 42 and the pressure limiting valve body 41 act on the exhaust passage 30 together, the control device automatically runs the first cooking program. When the detection structure 70 determines that the manual operating member is in the second position and the pressure limiting valve body 41 acts on the exhaust passage 30 alone, the control device automatically runs the second cooking program. The above-mentioned detection structure 70 can be a position sensor.

[0054] Preferably, the cooking utensil in this embodiment is an electric pressure cooker.
