[0062] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 as shown in Figure 1 a schematic structural diagram of a cooking appliance in an embodiment, Figure 2 a schematic diagram of a barbecue mode in an embodiment. In this embodiment, the cooking appliance may include a lid assembly 100, a pot body assembly 200, a heating component 300, a rotating component 400, and a cooking bracket 900. The lid assembly 100 covers the pot body assembly 200. The heating component 300 is fixed to the side of the pot body assembly 200 and is used to heat the food located inside the pot body assembly 200. The rotating component 400 is installed on the side of the pot body assembly 200, and the cooking bracket 900 is detachably fixed inside the pot body assembly 200.

[0063] wherein the direction of the rotation axis 403 of the rotating component 400 forms a certain angle with the heat radiation direction of the heating component 300, so that the heat emitted by the heating component 300 can be directed towards the cooking bracket 900 connected to the rotating component 400, thereby heating the food to be heated in the cooking bracket 900. And in order to heat evenly, the cooking bracket 900 can rotate along with the rotation of the rotation axis 403, so that the food in the cooking bracket 900 can evenly receive the heat radiation emitted by the heating component 300. Optionally, the cooking bracket 900 can be a barbecue grill, a barbecue basket, etc. Refer to Figure 2 as shown in

[0064] Please continue to refer to Figure 1 , wherein the heating component 300 can be arranged on the inner side wall or the outer side wall of the pot body assembly 200. When the heating component 300 is arranged on the inner side wall of the pot body assembly 200, the height of the heating component 300 is lower than the height of the side wall of the pot body assembly 200, so as not to affect the use of the pressure cooker and the baking tray 804; when the heating component 300 is arranged on the outer side wall of the pot body assembly 200, the side wall of the pot body assembly 200 is correspondingly provided with an opening so that the heat emitted by the heating component 300 can enter the interior of the pot body assembly 200.

[0065] Similarly, the rotating component 400 can be arranged on the inner sidewall or the outer sidewall of the pot body assembly 200. When the rotating component 400 is installed on the inner sidewall of the pot body assembly 200, the rotating component 400 is arranged inside the sidewall of the pot body assembly 200, and the rotating shaft 403 of the rotating component 400 does not protrude from the sidewall of the pot body assembly 200, thus not affecting the use of the pressure cooker and the baking tray 804. When the rotating component 400 is arranged on the outer sidewall of the pot body assembly 200, a corresponding opening is made on the sidewall of the pot body assembly 200 so that the rotating shaft 403 of the rotating component 400 extends into the sidewall of the pot body assembly 200. And in order not to affect the use of the pressure cooker, that is, the inner pot 600 and the baking tray 804, the rotating shaft 403 of the rotating component 400 extends into the sidewall of the pot body assembly 200 but does not extend into the pot body assembly 200, so that the cooking bracket 900 can extend into the sidewall of the pot body assembly 200 and be connected to the rotating shaft 403.

[0066] In the above cooking appliance, the heating component 300 and the rotating component 400 are both arranged on the sidewall of the pot body assembly 200, and the direction of the rotating shaft 403 of the rotating component 400 forms a certain angle with the heat radiation direction of the heating component 300. In this way, when the cooking bracket 900 rotates along with the rotating shaft 403 of the rotating component 400, the heat radiation of the heating component is dissipated to the cooking bracket 900, and since the cooking bracket 900 is rotating, it is ensured that the food in the cooking bracket 900 is heated evenly.

[0067] Specifically, please refer to Figures 3 to 6 as shown in Figure 3 the exploded view of the cooking appliance in the barbecue mode in one embodiment, Figure 4 the installation view of the cooking bracket 900 in the barbecue mode in one embodiment, Figure 5 the structural diagram of the rotating component 400 in the barbecue mode in one embodiment, Figure 6 the schematic diagram of heat radiation in the barbecue mode in one embodiment. The above cooking appliance may further include an outer pot 700, which is arranged inside the pot body assembly 200 and can be detachably or integrally formed with the pot body assembly 200.

[0068] In one embodiment, the rotating shaft 403 of the rotating component 400 is inserted into the sidewall of the pot body assembly 200 and does not extend into the inside of the pot body assembly 200. As Figure 5, a motor shaft hole 203 is formed in the side wall of the pot body assembly 200. The rotating shaft 403 of the rotating member 400 extends into the side wall of the pot body assembly 200, and the height of the rotating shaft 403 is lower than that of the side wall of the pot body assembly 200, that is, the rotating shaft 403 does not extend into the pot body assembly 200, so that the use of the pressure cooker and the baking tray 804 is not affected. And when the outer pot 700 is included in the pot body assembly 200, a motor shaft hole 203 is also provided on the outer pot 700, and a mounting hole 303 for the rotating member 400 can be directly formed in the side wall of the pot body assembly 200. The rotating member 400 is mounted on the mounting hole 303 for the rotating member 400, and the rotating shaft 403 extends into the motor shaft hole 203 on the outer pot 700 and does not extend into the interior of the pot body assembly 200, so that the use of the pressure cooker and the baking tray 804 is not affected.

[0069] In one embodiment, the rotating member 400 further includes a rotating motor 401. The rotating motor 401 is mounted on the outer side wall of the pot body assembly 200, and the rotating shaft 403 is connected to the rotating motor 401. Combining Figure 3 and 4 , the rotating member 400 includes a rotating motor 401 and a rotating shaft 403. The rotating motor 401 is connected to the rotating shaft 403, and the rotating shaft 403 extends into the motor shaft holes 203 on the pot body assembly 200 and the outer pot 700, so as to ensure that the cooking bracket 900 is connected to the rotating shaft 403 in the motor shaft hole 203. Furthermore, when the rotating motor 401 outputs a drive, the rotating shaft 403 can be driven to rotate, and then the rotating cooking bracket 900 can be driven to rotate, so as to ensure that the food in the cooking bracket 900 or on the cooking bracket 900 is heated.

[0070] In addition, the cooking appliance may further include a motor bracket 402. The motor bracket 402 can be mounted outside the pot body assembly 200, for example, fixed to the outer side wall of the pot body assembly 200 by bolts or snaps. In this way, the rotating motor 401 is fixed on the motor bracket 402, ensuring the stability of the rotating motor 401. In addition, in order to ensure that the rotating motor 401 is not polluted by the environment, etc., a protective cover with heat dissipation holes can be sleeved on the rotating motor 401, so that it does not affect heat dissipation and can ensure the safety of the rotating motor 401.

[0071] Among them, combining Figure 2 and Figure 4As shown, in one embodiment, the pot body assembly 200 is further provided with a bracket limit hole 202. One end of the cooking bracket 900 is connected to the rotating shaft 403 of the rotating member 400, and the other end is inserted into the bracket limit hole 202. The pot body assembly 200 is further provided with a bracket limit hole 202. The position of the bracket limit hole 202 is set opposite to the position of the motor shaft hole 203. In this way, one end of the cooking bracket 900 extends into the motor shaft hole 203 to be connected to the rotating shaft 403, and the other end can be inserted into the bracket limit hole 202. Thus, when the rotating motor 401 outputs drive, the rotating shaft 403 rotates, driving the cooking bracket 900 to rotate, thereby realizing uniform heating.

[0072] Specifically, please refer to Figure 3 and Figure 6 As shown, in one embodiment, ventilation holes 201 are formed in the side wall of the pot body assembly 200. The heating component 300 is arranged on the outer side wall of the pot body assembly 200 and the heating component 300 faces the ventilation holes 201.

[0073] In this embodiment, the position and function of the heating component 300 are mainly introduced. Ventilation holes 201 can be formed in the side wall of the pot body assembly 200, for example, a plurality of ventilation holes 201 are formed, so that the heating component 300 faces the ventilation holes 201 to ensure that the heat dissipated by the heating component 300 can enter the interior of the pot body assembly 200. In addition, the scale of the ventilation holes 201 can be relatively large, and thus ventilation grilles can be installed on the ventilation holes 201, which can also ensure that the heat dissipated by the heating component 300 can enter the interior of the pot body assembly 200.

[0074] Optionally, when an outer pot 700 is installed in the pot body assembly 200, ventilation holes 201 or ventilation grilles combined with the ventilation holes 201 are also provided at corresponding positions of the outer pot 700.

[0075] In one embodiment, referring to Figure 3 As shown, the heating component includes a heating tube 302 and a heating tube cover 301. The heating tube 302 is fixed on the heating tube cover 301, and the heating tube cover 301 is fixed on the outer side wall of the pot body assembly 200. In one embodiment, the heating tube cover 301 includes a bottom surface and a side surface connected to the bottom surface. Mounting holes 303 are provided on the side surface. The heating tube 302 is fixed on the heating tube cover 301 through the mounting holes 303, and the side surface is fixed on the outer side wall of the pot body assembly 200. Or the heating component includes a heating tube 302, a convection component and a heating tube cover 301. The heating tube 302 and the convection component are fixed on the heating tube cover 301, and the heating tube 302 is located between the convection component and the pot body assembly 200, and the heating tube cover 301 is fixed on the outer side wall of the pot body assembly 200.

[0076] Specifically, the heating component 300 may include a heating tube 302 and a heating tube cover 301, and the heating tube 302 is fixed in the heating tube cover 301. For example, Figure 3 two mounting holes 303 are provided on the side surface of the heating tube cover 301. The heating tube 302 can be U-shaped, so that the two legs of the heating tube 302 extend into the two mounting holes 303 to be fixed on the heating tube cover 301, and are respectively connected to a power source through the two legs of the heating tube 302 to ensure the input of energy to the heating tube 302. The heating tube cover 301 is fixed on the outer side wall of the pot body assembly 200, and can be fixed by, for example, bolts or buckles. In addition, to ensure safety, the side surface of the heating tube cover 301 extends into the pot body assembly 200 to ensure that the two mounting holes 303 on the side surface of the heating tube cover 301 extend into the side wall of the pot body assembly 200 instead of being exposed to the outside, so as to prevent electric shock.

[0077] Among them, the convection component may include a fan motor and a fan blade. The fan motor is fixed on the heating tube cover 301, and the fan blade is connected to the fan motor. Thus, the fan motor outputs power to the fan blade, which can drive the fan blade to rotate. The rotation of the fan blade causes air flow, which is heated after passing through the heating tube 302 and then enters the interior of the pot body assembly 200 to heat the food in the pot body assembly 200.

[0078] The heating tube 302 faces the ventilation hole 201 on the pot body assembly 200, so as to maximize the thermal efficiency.

[0079] In one embodiment, as shown in combination with Figure 6 the direction of the rotation axis 403 of the rotating component 400 is perpendicular to the heat radiation direction of the heating component 300. Such vertical heating ensures the maximization of thermal efficiency and ensures the rapid heating of the food in the cooking bracket 900.

[0080] In one embodiment, to ensure convenient cleaning, the cooking tool further includes an oil drip tray 803. The oil drip tray 803 is located at the bottom of the pot body assembly 200 and is used to catch the residue oil and dirt dripping from the cooking rack 900 when the heating component 300 heats the food in the cooking rack 900. When the inner pot 700 is further included inside the pot body assembly 200, the oil drip tray 803 is located at the bottom of the inner pot 700 and is used to catch the residue oil and dirt dripping from the cooking rack 900 when the heating component 300 heats the food in the cooking rack 900. In this way, when the heating is completed, the oil drip tray 803 can be directly taken out for cleaning without cleaning the entire pot, or the inner pot 700 and the oil drip tray 803 can be taken out for cleaning. Moreover, to ensure that the residue oil and dirt do not fall outside the oil drip tray 803, the structure of the cooking rack 900 can be set. For example, certain buffer areas are provided at both ends of the cooking rack 900, and food cannot be placed in these buffer areas, so as to ensure that the area for holding food on the cooking rack 900 is directly opposite to the oil drip tray 803, thereby ensuring that all the residue oil and dirt fall into the oil drip tray 803.

[0081] The operating principles of each component in the barbecue mode were introduced in the above embodiment. The rotating component 400 is composed of a rotating motor 401 and a motor bracket 402. The rotating motor 401 is fixed on the motor bracket 402, and the motor bracket 402 is fixed on the outer side wall of the pot body assembly 200. The rotating shaft 403 can communicate with the inside of the inner pot 700 through the motor shaft hole 203 on the side wall of the inner pot 700. The motor bracket 402 supports the motor and hides the rotating shaft 403 inside the side wall of the pot body assembly 200, that is, the rotating shaft 403 does not protrude above the inner wall of the pot body assembly 200, effectively avoiding interference with the inner pot 600 during pressure cooking. One end of the cooking rack 900 is assembled on the rotating shaft 403, and the other end is carried on the bracket limit hole 202 on the pot body assembly 200 and rotates driven by the rotating motor 401. In this way, the rotation process of the cooking rack 900 is always perpendicular to the radiant heat of the heating tube 302 of the heating component 300, forming a vertical rotating barbecue, making the best use of thermal energy to cook food. During the rotating barbecue cooking, the oil drip tray 803 is placed on the heat release plate at the bottom of the inner pot 700 and is used to catch the food residues or oil drops that fall during the cooking process. The food is clamped on the cooking rack 900. One end of the cooking rack 900 is assembled on the shaft of the rotating motor 401, and the other end is carried on the bracket limit hole 202 on the inner pot 700. The heating tube 302 is started to heat through the controller 500, and at the same time, the rotating motor 401 is started to rotate and rotates driven by the motor to complete the rotating barbecue cooking.

[0082] In one embodiment, in combination with Figure 7 and Figure 8 shown, Figure 7 is an exploded view of each component in the pressure mode of an embodiment. Figure 8Schematic diagram of the pressure mode inner pot 600 placed in the pot body assembly 200 in one embodiment.

[0083] In one embodiment, the appliance further includes a heating plate 801 and an inner pot 600. The heating plate 801 is located at the bottom of the pot body assembly 200. When the inner pot 600 is located within the pot body assembly 200 and in contact with the heating plate 801, and the lid assembly 100 is closed on the pot body assembly 200, a sealed space is formed between the inner pot 600 and the lid assembly 100. The heating plate 801 is used to perform pressure heating on the food placed in the inner pot 600. During use, the lid assembly 100 is screwed onto the pot body assembly 200 and is in close contact with the inner pot 600 placed in the pot body assembly 200 to ensure a sealed space is formed between the lid assembly 100 and the inner pot 600. In this way, the heating plate 801 heats the inner pot 600 to increase the pressure inside the inner pot 600, achieving the pressure mode. Optionally, the lid assembly 100 may be provided with a vent hole. When the pressure inside the inner pot 600 reaches a certain value, the vent hole is opened to balance the pressure inside the inner pot 600, prevent explosion, and ensure safety.

[0084] Specifically, the inner pot 600 is used, and the food is placed in the inner pot 600. The inner pot 600 is placed on the heat release plate at the bottom of the outer pot 700. The bottom of the inner pot 600 is in contact with the thermostat 802. Only the heating plate 801 is controlled to heat by the controller 500. The inner pot 600 and the lid form a sealed container, achieving the automatic cooking and heating effect of an ordinary electric pressure cooker.

Figure 10 Schematic diagram of the oil drain pan 803 in the pressure mode placed in the pot body assembly 200 in one embodiment.

[0086] In one embodiment, the appliance further includes a baking pan 804. When the baking pan 804 is located within the pot body assembly 200 and in contact with the heating plate 801, the heating plate 801 and the heating component 300 heat the food located in the baking pan 804. During baking cooking, the oil drain pan 803 is used. The oil drain pan 803 is placed on the heating plate 801 at the bottom of the outer pot 700. The food can be placed on the oil drain pan 803. The heating tube 302 is started to heat by the controller 500 to perform baking cooking on the food. The baking pan 804 may be the same component as the above-mentioned oil drain pan 803. During baking, both the heating plate 801 and the heating component 300 can be controlled to heat, thereby accelerating the heating efficiency of the food.

[0087] In one embodiment, the cooking appliance may further include a controller 500.

The controller 500 is configured to control the heating component 300 and the rotating component 400 to work when the cooking rack 900 is installed in the pot body assembly 200; control the heating plate 801 to work when the inner pot 600 is installed in the pot body assembly 200; and control the heating plate 801 and the heating component 300 to work when the baking pan 804 is installed in the pot body assembly 200.

[0088] Specifically, in combination with Figures 1 to 10 , the working processes of the cooking appliance in the pressure mode, baking mode, and barbecue mode in the present application are introduced in detail. The cooking appliance mainly includes a pot body assembly 200, a lid assembly 100, a heating component 300, a rotating component 400, a controller 500, a cooking rack 900, an outer pot 700, an oil drip tray 803 (baking pan 804), etc. The specific working principle is as follows:

[0089] Cooking process in the pressure mode:

[0090] As Figure 1 , Figure 9 and Figure 10 show, the outer pot 700 may or may not be assembled on the pot body assembly 200. A heating plate 801 and a temperature controller 802 are installed at the bottom of the pot body assembly 200 or the bottom of the outer pot 700. The inner pot 600 is placed into the outer pot 700 or the pot body assembly 200, and the bottom of the inner pot 600 contacts the heating plate 801 and the temperature controller 802. Food is placed into the inner pot 600, the lid assembly 100 is screwed on, and the heating plate 801 is started through the controller 500 to complete the cooking of the pressure cooker function.

[0091] Cooking process in the baking mode:

[0092] As Figure 7 and Figure 8 shown, the heating component 300 is composed of a heating tube cover 301 and a heating tube 302. The heating component 300 is fixed to the outer wall of the pot body assembly 200. Ventilation grids are provided on the pot body assembly 200 and the outer pot 700. The heat emitted by the heating tube 302 can enter the interiors of the pot body assembly 200 and the outer pot 700 through the ventilation grids. The oil drip tray 803 (baking pan 804) is placed at the bottom of the outer pot 700 (or the pot body assembly 200) to contact the heating plate 801 and the temperature controller 802. Food is placed on the oil drip tray 803 (baking pan 804), and the heating tube 302 and the heating plate 801 are started through the controller 500 to complete the automatic barbecue cooking. Moreover, due to the setting of the temperature controller 802, the baking temperature can also be adjusted according to needs to make the food more delicious.

[0093] Cooking process in barbecue mode:

[0094] As Figures 2 to 6 shown, the rotating component 400 consists of a rotating motor 401 and a motor bracket 402. The rotating motor 401 is fixed on the motor bracket 402, and the rotating component 400 is fixed on the outer side wall of the pot body assembly 200. Motor shaft holes 203 are provided on the pot body assembly 200 and the outer pot 700. The rotating shaft 403 of the rotating motor 401 is matched with the motor shaft hole 203. The motor bracket 402 effectively restricts the motor shaft of the rotating motor 401 from extending into the interior of the outer pot 700, effectively avoiding the protrusion of the rotating shaft 403 inside the outer pot 700 and affecting the interference with the inner pot 600 during the pressure cooking process. On the other side of the inner wall of the outer pot 700, there is a bracket limit hole 202 for the cooking bracket 900. One end of the cooking bracket 900 can be inserted into the motor shaft hole 203 and matched with the rotating shaft 403, and the other end of the cooking bracket 900 is matched with the bracket limit hole 202 of the cooking bracket 900, so that the rotating motor 401 can drive the cooking bracket 900 to rotate. Load the food onto the cooking bracket 900, place the oil drip tray 803 into the outer pot 700, which can catch the falling food debris, oil, etc., facilitating cleaning. Under the control of the controller 500, start the heating tube 302 and the rotating motor 401. The rotating motor 401 drives the cooking bracket 900 to rotate, completing the rotating barbecue cooking.

[0095] Through the way of installing the rotating motor 401 on the side wall of the outer pot 700 and designing the bracket limit hole 202, and installing the heating tube 302 by opening ventilation grids on the side wall of the outer pot 700, this application realizes the vertical rotating barbecue cooking function. At the same time, enabling the bottom thermostat 802 realizes temperature-controlled baking and pressure automatic cooking.
