Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to a kitchen appliance, in particular to a steaming and baking all-in-one machine capable of steaming and baking. Background Art

[0002] There are more and more steam-bake machines on the market. They are generally embedded machines with upper and lower double inner pots with steaming function. Each inner pot is equipped with an independent door assembly. The upper inner pot can realize the steam function, and the lower inner pot can realize the functions of baking, steaming and steaming and baking at the same time. The upper and lower inner pots use separate door assemblies, and the operation display screen (also the upper inner pot door handle) is located on the outer glass of the upper door assembly for easy operation.

[0003] Due to limited space, one air outlet is usually used and placed above the upper inner tank. When the lower inner tank uses the steaming function, the door assembly is opened, and a large amount of steam in the lower inner tank escapes. Since there is no external force, most of the steam rises upward during the escape process, causing a large amount of steam to condense and produce water droplets on the upper inner tank door assembly and the operation display screen, affecting the user's operating experience.

[0004] When the lower inner pot is in steam-bake mode, due to a certain gap in the hot air blower shaft, the steam escapes along the shaft to the back of the all-in-one machine, causing air leakage. Summary of the invention

[0005] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide a steam-bake combination machine in which steam does not escape to the back of the machine body in response to the above-mentioned technical status quo.

[0006] Another technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide a steam-bake combination machine capable of reducing the upward rise of steam when a door assembly is opened in response to the above-mentioned technical status quo.
