[0030] like Figure 1-9 As shown, the automatic cooking machine of this embodiment includes: a body body 1, an inner body 12, a wok 3, a first driving device 36, a second driving device and a heating device. The inner body 12 is embedded in the body body 1 and the upper end surface of the inner body 12 is arranged inclined. The lower part of the inner body 12 is rotatably connected to the body body 1. The first driving device 36 is used to drive the inner body 12 to flip forward and backward around a horizontal axis relative to the body body 1. The wok 3 is embedded in the upper end surface of the inner body 12 and its axis is perpendicular to the upper end surface of the inner body 12. The second driving device is used to drive the wok 3 to rotate around its axis. The heating device is used to heat the wok 3.

[0031] The upper end of the fuselage body 1 is provided with an inclined surface 11 and is coplanar with the upper end surface of the inner fuselage 12. The outer side (or upper side) of the inclined surface 11 is provided with a top cover 2. The top cover 2 is rotatably connected to the upper end of the inclined surface 11 through a rotating shaft, so that the top cover 2 can be opened upward and closed downward relative to the fuselage body 1. The shape of the top cover 2 can correspond to the shape of the inclined surface 11, so that the top cover 2 and the outer contour of the fuselage body 1 form a whole, and the top cover 2 is used to cover the wok. The top cover 2 is provided with a dish entrance 21, a dish box slide 22 and a dish box 23. The dish box slide 22 is provided on the outer side (or upper side) of the top cover 2. The dish entrance 21 is provided in the dish box slide 22. The dish box 23 can slide in the dish box slide 22 to complete the dish entry 21. The movement of the dish box 23 in the dish box slide 22 can be completed by a related driving device.

[0032] The frying pan 3 includes an inner pot body, which includes a circular bottom surface 31, a truncated cone-shaped side surface 32 and a cylindrical side surface 33. The diameter of the lower end of the truncated cone-shaped side surface 32 is smaller than the diameter of the upper end. The lower end of the truncated cone-shaped side surface 32 is connected to the circular bottom surface 31 and the diameter of the lower end of the truncated cone-shaped side surface 32 is the same as the diameter of the circular bottom surface 31. The upper end of the truncated cone-shaped side surface 32 is connected to the lower end of the cylindrical side surface 33 and the diameter of the upper end of the truncated cone-shaped side surface 32 is the same as the diameter of the cylindrical side surface 33.

[0033] In a normal state, i.e., not working or cooking state, the angle between the axis of the wok 3 and the horizontal plane is 38°~45°, such as 40°. Similarly, the angle between the truncated cone-shaped side surface 32 and the circular bottom surface 31 of the wok 3 itself is also correspondingly 38°~45°, i.e., the same as the angle between the axis of the wok 3 and the horizontal plane, so that when the automatic cooking machine is cooking, the truncated cone-shaped side surface 32 of the wok 3 is in the horizontal direction. The dimensions of the automatic cooking machine in this embodiment can be height = 400mm, width = 400mm, and length = 380mm.

[0034] One or more flaps 34 may be provided on the inner side of the wok 3, and the flaps 34 are detachably connected to the wok 3 by means of magnetic connection. The basic principle of the automatic cooking machine is to use the earth's gravity and the angle of the pot to realize the automatic frying and rolling of the ingredients in the pot. However, since Chinese food ingredients vary greatly, a flap 34 is provided in the wok 3 to turn with the pot wall, which can increase the frying effect of the ingredients and increase the full contact between the air and the ingredients. A flap 34 may be provided on the inner side of the circular bottom surface 31, the truncated cone side surface 32 and the cylindrical side surface 33. The size of the outer end of the flap 34 is smaller than the size of the inner end, that is, the flap 34 is a relatively pointed structure at the outer end. The flap 34 can be detachably connected to the inner side of the inner pot body by means of magnetic connection. The design of the flap 34 is to use the magnetic principle to wrap the strong magnetic block with food-grade silica gel and install it on the wok by the attraction of the magnet. The magnetic connection can facilitate the disassembly of the flap 34 and the cleaning of the inner pot body.

[0035] The inner body 12 may be provided with a dish pouring notch below the wok 3, and the wok 3 is provided with a pot tongue at the dish pouring notch, and the shape of the pot tongue is as follows: Figure 8 As shown, it is an arc-shaped curved surface structure, and the pot tongue is detachably connected to the wok 3 by magnetic connection. Since the automatic cooking machine automatically pours food and washes the pot, the pot edge of the pot mouth is relatively wide. Under normal circumstances, such a pot edge size will leave soup on the pot mouth shell when pouring food. In order to avoid such a situation, the design of the pot tongue for pouring food fully meets this demand. The pot tongue for pouring food is fixed at the pot mouth in the form of magnetic adsorption. When pouring food, the pot tongue can change the soup outlet angle through its own fitting angle, so that the food can flow out naturally from the pot tongue to avoid contamination of other parts of the equipment. The design of the pot tongue is a modular design that can be easily disassembled and assembled, and is easy to disassemble and clean separately.

[0036] The axis of the rotation connection between the inner body 12 and the body body 1 passes through the connection between the truncated cone-shaped side surface 32 and the cylindrical side surface 33 of the wok 3, that is, the axis of the inner body 12 turning over is as shown in FIG. Figure 7 The shaft position 35 is shown.

[0037] The first driving device 36 is arranged in the fuselage main body 1, and the first driving device 36 includes a first driving motor and a first power transmission mechanism. The inner fuselage 12 is rotatably connected to the fuselage main body 1 through a rotating shaft structure. The output shaft of the first driving motor transmits power to the rotating shaft structure through the first power transmission mechanism to drive the inner fuselage to flip. The first power transmission mechanism can be a gear transmission mechanism. The output shaft of the first driving motor and the rotating shaft of the inner fuselage 12 are both provided with gears that cooperate with the gear transmission mechanism.

[0038] The second driving device includes a second driving motor and a second power transmission mechanism. The output shaft of the second driving motor is connected to the center of the bottom of the wok 3 through the second power transmission mechanism to drive the wok 3 to rotate around its axis. The second power transmission mechanism can be a reduction gear box. The center of the bottom of the wok 3 is connected to the reduction gear box through a connecting shaft. The output shaft of the second driving motor transmits power to the connecting shaft through the reduction gear box to achieve control of different speeds of the wok 3. The connection relationship between the center of the bottom of the wok 3 and the connecting shaft can be a fixed connection or a pluggable connection with a protrusion and a groove. The shapes of the protrusion and the groove correspond to each other and can rotate synchronously, which facilitates the matching and separation of the wok 3 and the connecting shaft.

[0039] The heating device can be an electromagnetic heating coil arranged in the inner body 12 corresponding to the bottom position of the wok 3, similar to the heating coil of an induction cooker. The shape of the heating coil corresponds to the shape of the bottom of the wok 3. The specific corresponding position can be the side wall in the horizontal plane when the wok 3 is arranged tilted.

[0040] The automatic cooking machine of this embodiment may further include a control system, which is disposed in the main body 1. The control system is respectively connected to the first drive device 36, the second drive device and the heating device, and is used to control the connection and operation of the first drive device 36, the second drive device and the heating device. The control system includes control buttons disposed on the side wall of the main body 1, which may include: up, down, pour vegetables, cook, etc., and may also include a data receiving device for communicating with devices such as mobile phones to input cooking operation information.

[0041] The dish pouring operation process of the automatic cooking machine of this embodiment is as follows: the operator confirms that the cooking is finished, manually opens the pot cover, and long presses the dish pouring button (down button). The cooking pot cooking body will rotate to a suitable angle through the power of the motor to let the dishes flow out automatically. This operation is instantaneous. The button can be pressed for a certain time according to the required angle. After the dish pouring is finished, the operator presses the up button again to turn the pot back to the initial position. The key to this design is to choose the optimal rotation fulcrum. The fulcrum of this design is selected at Figure 7 The shaft position 35 is shown. The selection of this position makes pouring food more convenient and the overall design of the pot body is more compact.

[0042] The pot washing operation process of the automatic cooking machine of this embodiment: after the pouring operation is completed, the pot body returns to the initial state angle, the operator manually adds water to the pot body, presses the pot washing button, and the cooking pot body can rotate forward and reverse one circle to heat and wash the pot, and the oil stains are cleaned by hot water (up to 100 degrees Celsius). After the water temperature reaches 100 degrees, the cooking pot automatically rotates (the same action as pouring the dishes) and keeps rotating at the same time, and finally the pot washing water is poured out (the angle of pouring the dishes). The operator needs to prepare a container for the pot washing water in advance. After the pot washing water is poured out, the operator presses the upward button, and the pot body is rotated back to the initial angle state, completing the pot washing and drying the pot body with residual heat. The key point of this design is: the pot body can be turned to pour out the sewage, and the pot washing is cleaner and more efficient.

[0043] The automatic cooking machine of the present invention arranges the wok in an inclined manner in the inner body so that the wok can be rotated at an inclined manner to complete stir-frying and heating. When in use, no depression will be formed at the bottom of the wok to accumulate oil and the like, and the oil and dishes in the wok can also be heated evenly. By arranging an inner body that can be flipped back and forth in the main body of the machine, automatic pouring and serving of dishes and automatic washing of the wok and pouring of water are achieved. Various control processes of the automatic cooking machine of the present invention can be automatically completed, the structure is reasonable, the operation is simple, the use is convenient, and it is easy to carry, which effectively improves the cooking effect and convenience of automatic cooking.

[0044] The embodiments of the present invention are given for the purpose of illustration and description, and are not intended to be exhaustive or to limit the invention to the disclosed forms. Many modifications and variations will be apparent to those of ordinary skill in the art. The embodiments are selected and described in order to better illustrate the principles and practical applications of the present invention and to enable those of ordinary skill in the art to understand the present invention and thereby design various embodiments with various modifications suitable for specific uses.
