For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0046] Reference below Figure 1-Figure 11 The oil box assembly 100 for the integrated stove 200 according to the embodiment of the present invention is described.

[0047] like Figure 1-Figure 11As shown, the oil box assembly 100 for an integrated stove 200 according to an embodiment of the present invention comprises: a base 10, an oil storage box 20 and a gravity detection device 30. The oil storage box 20 can be pushed and pulled on the base 10, and the gravity detection device 30 is arranged on the base 10. At least a part of the gravity detection device 30 is located below the oil storage box 20, so that a part of the oil storage box 20 is supported on the gravity detection device 30, thereby the amount of oil in the oil storage box 20 can be obtained according to the detection of the gravity detection device 30. It can be understood that as the amount of oil in the oil storage box 20 changes, the weight of the oil storage box 20 changes continuously. According to the change in the weight of the oil storage box 20, the change in the detection result of the gravity detection device 30 is caused. The measurement result and the actual oil amount data are analyzed to determine the conversion relationship between the two, and then the actual amount of oil in the oil storage box 20 can be obtained according to each detection result, so as to remind the user to pour the oil. The structure is simple, the detection is reliable and the cost is low.

[0048] Among them, the base 10 is provided with an oil collecting groove 11, and the oil collecting groove 11 corresponds to the position of the oil storage box 20. Therefore, when the oil storage box 20 is taken out from the base 10, the residual oil in the integrated stove 200 can be collected in the oil collecting groove 11, so as to prevent the oil from dripping directly on the base 10 and sticking to the oil storage box 20, thereby affecting the subsequent pushing and pulling use of the oil storage box 20. At the same time, it is convenient for users to clean up, and it can also prevent the oil from flowing to the gravity detection device 30 and affecting the accuracy and reliability of the detection of the gravity detection device 30.

[0049] According to the oil box assembly 100 for an integrated stove according to an embodiment of the present invention, the oil storage box 20 is supported on the gravity detection device 30, so that the detection result of the gravity detection device 30 can change when the oil amount in the oil storage box 20 changes, so that the oil amount in the oil storage box 20 can be obtained in time and accurately, the structure is simple, the detection is convenient and reliable, and the accuracy is high; by arranging the oil receiving groove 11 on the base 10, the oil receiving groove 11 can play a role in collecting residual oil when the oil storage box 20 is taken out, which can not only facilitate the user's cleaning and subsequent use, but also prevent the oil from flowing to the gravity detection device and affecting the accuracy of the subsequent detection results. The overall structure is simple and easy to manufacture.

[0050] like Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, according to one embodiment of the present invention, a portion of the upper surface of the base 10 is recessed downward to form an oil collecting groove 11. In the manufacturing process, the oil collecting groove 11 can be directly formed on the base 10 through a stamping process or an injection mold, which is convenient for manufacturing and molding. At the same time, no gap is generated on the base 10, which facilitates the flow of oil and dirt into the oil collecting groove 11.

[0051] like Figure 6As shown, in some examples, the bottom wall surface 111 of the oil receiving groove 11 forms an inclined surface, and the bottom wall surface 111 gradually extends downward from the back to the front, and the oil storage box 20 extends in the front-to-back direction. The oil storage box 20 is suitable for being taken out from the front side of the base 10, and the front side of the base 10 is the side close to the user, that is, the bottom wall surface 111 of the oil receiving groove 11 gradually extends downward from the direction away from the user to the direction close to the user. The side of the oil receiving groove 11 close to the user has a large depth, and the side away from the user has a small depth. When residual oil drips, it will drip into the oil receiving groove 11, and the oil will flow along the bottom wall of the oil receiving groove 11 to the side close to the user, thereby facilitating the user to clean the oil in time, the cleaning operation is convenient, and the user experience is good. Furthermore, the front end of the oil receiving groove 11 is arranged adjacent to the front end of the base 10, thereby further facilitating the user's cleaning operation.

[0052] like Figure 7 and Fig.10 As shown, according to one embodiment of the present invention, a handle 26 is provided at the first end 21 of the oil storage box 20 to facilitate the user to push and pull the oil storage box 20. When the user pushes and pulls the oil storage box 20, the residual oil in the integrated stove 200 will drip onto the base 10. The oil will solidify over time, which will cause the oil storage box 20 to stick to the base 10. For this reason, a sliding member 24 is provided at the bottom of the oil storage box 20. The sliding member 24 extends along the movable direction of the oil storage box 20. The oil storage box 20 is slidably connected to the base 10 through the sliding member 24. Therefore, on the one hand, the friction between the oil storage box 20 and the base 10 can be reduced, which is convenient for the user to push and pull the oil storage box 20. On the other hand, the contact area between the oil storage box 20 and the base 10 is reduced, which can improve the accuracy of the gravity detection device 30.

[0053] The projection of the sliding member 24 on the base 10 is located outside the oil receiving groove 11 to ensure the reliability of the sliding cooperation between the oil storage box 20 and the base 10 and avoid interference between the sliding member 24 and the oil receiving groove 11 to affect the convenience of pushing and pulling the oil storage box 20.

[0054] In some examples, the sliding member 24 forms a sliding rib protruding from the bottom of the oil storage box 20. Of course, the sliding member can also form a sliding wheel, which is fixed to the bottom of the oil storage box 20. The sliding wheel cooperates with the upper surface of the base 10, so that the oil storage box 20 can be conveniently pushed and pulled.

[0055] According to one embodiment of the present invention, the oil storage box 20 has a first end 21 and a second end 22 arranged opposite to each other along the push-pull direction thereof. Figure 1As shown, the oil storage box 20 is pushed and pulled along the front-back direction, the first end 21 is arranged at the front end of the oil storage box 20, and the second end 22 is arranged at the rear end of the oil storage box 20. The first end 21 of the oil storage box 20 is supported on the base 10, and the bottom of the second end 22 of the oil storage box 20 is provided with an avoidance portion 201, and the gravity detection device 30 is located at least partially at the avoidance portion 201, so that the second end 22 of the oil storage box 20 is supported on the gravity detection device 30, that is, the two ends of the oil storage box 20 can be supported on the base 10 and the gravity detection device 30 respectively, by supporting the oil storage box 20 On the gravity detection device 30 and the base 10, the oil amount in the oil storage box 20 can be obtained by utilizing the gravity detection device 30 and the lever principle, the structure is simple, and the detection is convenient and reliable; by arranging an avoidance portion 201 at the bottom of the oil storage box 20, the gravity detection device 30 can be installed at the position corresponding to the avoidance portion 201, which is convenient for the installation of the gravity detection device 30 and can avoid the gravity detection device 30 being installed too low and in contact with the ground to affect the accuracy of the detection result. At the same time, it can protect the gravity detection device 30 and improve the compactness and stability of the overall structure.

[0056] In addition, the oil storage box 20 is suitable for being pulled outward from the position of the first end 21. During the process of pulling the oil storage box 20 outward, the gravity detection device 30 will not interfere with the oil storage box 20, thereby ensuring that the oil storage box 20 can be pushed and pulled smoothly.

[0057] Furthermore, the sliding member 24 extends from the first end 21 to a position adjacent to the avoidance portion 201 , thereby ensuring that the oil storage box 20 is always in sliding cooperation with the base 10 through the sliding member 24 when the oil storage box 20 is pushed or pulled, and the pushing and pulling process is smooth and convenient.

[0058] like Figure 4 As shown, according to one embodiment of the present invention, the gravity detection device 30 includes: a gravity sensor 31 and a support plate 32. A fastener hole 17 is provided on the base 10. The gravity sensor 31 is suitable for being fixedly connected to the base 10 through a fastener to ensure the stability of the fixation of the gravity sensor 31 and avoid the gravity sensor 31 from shifting and affecting the reliability of the detection result.

[0059] The support plate 32 is arranged above the gravity sensor 31, and the oil storage box 20 is suitable for being supported on the support plate 32, that is, the two ends of the oil storage box 20 are respectively supported on the base 10 and the support plate 32, and the support plate 32 is supported on the gravity sensor 31. As the amount of oil in the oil storage box 20 changes, the weight of the oil storage box 20 changes continuously. By utilizing the principle of lever, the oil storage box 20 uses the contact point between the oil storage box 20 and the base 10 as a fulcrum. According to the change in the weight of the oil storage box 20, the gravity sensor 31 is deformed. The measurement result of the gravity sensor 31 and the actual oil amount data are analyzed to determine the conversion relationship between the two. Then, the actual oil amount in the oil storage box 20 can be obtained according to each detection result, and then the user can be reminded to pour the oil. The structure is simple, the detection is reliable and the cost is low.

[0060] Compared with the pressure sensor and liquid level sensor used in the prior art, the present application adopts a gravity sensor 31, which can avoid the problem of detection failure caused by oil solidification due to low temperature in winter or excessive oil viscosity; at the same time, the gravity sensor 31 and the oil storage box 20 are supported on the same base 10. By setting the avoidance part 201, there is no need to move the gravity sensor 31 down to a position close to the ground, which improves the accuracy of detection, and has a simple structure, easy installation and low cost.

[0061] like Figure 4 As shown, in some examples, the upper surface of the support plate 32 has a downwardly recessed cavity 321, and the bottom wall of the cavity 321 is provided with a mounting hole 322, and the mounting hole 322 is a through hole that penetrates the support plate 32. By passing the fastener through the mounting hole 322, the support plate 32 can be fixedly connected to the gravity sensor 31, thereby achieving fixation of the support plate 32 and improving the stability and detection accuracy of the gravity sensor 31; or by passing the fastener through the mounting hole 322, the support plate 32 can be fixedly connected to the base 10 to achieve fixed installation of the support plate 32; or by passing the fastener through the mounting hole 322, the support plate 32 and the gravity sensor 31 can be fastened to the base 10 at the same time, thereby improving assembly efficiency and improving the stability of the overall structure.

[0062] In addition, by providing the concave cavity 321 , the fastener will not protrude from the upper surface of the support plate 32 after installation, thereby preventing the fastener from abutting against the oil storage box 20 and affecting the detection accuracy of the gravity detection device 30 .

[0063] like Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, according to one embodiment of the present invention, the base 10 includes a bottom plate 15, which is a plate-shaped structural member, and its upper surface is roughly formed as a flat surface, and a portion of the upper surface of the bottom plate 15 is recessed downward to form an oil receiving groove 11, and the plug hole 12 and the second clamping hole 13 are both arranged on the bottom plate 15, and the plug hole 12 and the second clamping hole 13 are located on the rear side of the oil receiving groove 11.

[0064] Side panels 14 are provided on the opposite side edges of the bottom plate 15. The side panels 14 extend along the length direction of the base 10. The oil storage box 20 can be pushed and pulled along the length direction of the base 10. During the movement of the oil storage box 20, the side panels 14 can limit the oil storage box 20 to prevent the oil storage box 20 from shaking, thereby improving the stability of the overall structure and the convenience of user operation.

[0065] The base 10 also includes a support member 16, which is arranged on the lower side of the bottom plate 15. The support member 16 is used to support the bottom plate 15, so that the bottom plate 15 can be separated from the ground or the bottom of the integrated stove 200, and at the same time it is convenient for the setting of the oil collecting groove 11, and the internal space of the oil collecting groove 11 can be increased to increase the amount of oil collected.

[0066] In some examples, the support members 16 include two support members 16, which are arranged below the other two opposite side edges of the base plate 15. The support members 16 are suitable for being fixedly connected to the integrated stove 200 through fasteners, etc., thereby fixing the base 10 on the integrated stove 200 without drilling holes on the base plate 15, etc.

[0067] According to one embodiment of the present invention, the base 10 is an integrally formed part. The overall structure of the base 10 has good stability and reliability, high structural strength, and can prevent oil stains from flowing out of the connection gaps and affecting the user experience.

[0068] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, according to one embodiment of the present invention, the oil box assembly 100 also includes: a control device 40, which is arranged on the base 10, and the control device 40 has a circuit board 41, and the circuit board 41 is electrically connected to the gravity detection device 30, so that when the gravity detection device 30 detects that the amount of oil in the oil storage box 20 reaches a preset threshold, the control device 40 can issue a reminder, and the reminder here can be a sound reminder, a light reminder, etc., to remind the user to pour out the oil in time.

[0069] like Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, in some examples, the control device 40 also includes: a supporting foot 42, which is arranged on the base 10, and the supporting foot 42 is used to support the circuit board 41 to space the circuit board 41 and the base 10 apart, thereby preventing the circuit board 41 from being affected when there is residual water or oil on the base 10, thereby achieving waterproofing of the circuit board 41.

[0070] In some examples, the upper end of the supporting foot 42 has a first hook 421, and the circuit board 41 has a first hole 411, or the circuit board 41 is provided with a first hook 421, and the upper end of the supporting foot 42 has a first hole 411. The first hook 421 cooperates with the first hole 411, so that the upper end of the supporting foot 42 and the circuit board 41 are snap-fitted together, and the connection is convenient and the fit is reliable.

[0071] In some examples, the lower end of the supporting foot 42 has a second hook 422, and the base 10 is provided with a second hole 13, or the base 10 is provided with a second hook 422, and the lower end of the supporting foot 42 has a second hole 13. The second hook 422 cooperates with the second hole 13, so that the lower end of the supporting foot 42 and the base 10 are snap-fitted together, and the connection is convenient and the cooperation is reliable.

[0072] like Figure 4 As shown, in some specific examples, the supporting feet 42 include a plurality of support feet 42 arranged at intervals, each supporting foot 42 has a first hook 421 at the upper end, and a second hook 422 at the lower end of the supporting foot 42. A first clamping hole 411 is provided at the edge of the circuit board 41, and a second clamping hole 13 is provided on the base 10. The first clamping hook 421 cooperates with the first clamping hole 411 to achieve a matching connection between the circuit board 41 and the supporting foot 42, and the second clamping hook 422 cooperates with the second clamping hole 13 to achieve a matching connection between the supporting foot 42 and the base 10, thereby achieving fixation of the circuit board 41 on the base 10. That is to say, the circuit board 41 is fixed to the base 10 by the supporting foot 42, which can make the circuit board 41 waterproof and oil-proof, and facilitate the installation of the circuit board 41. The overall structure is easy to manufacture and has high assembly efficiency.

[0073] like Figure 2-Figure 4 As shown, in some examples, the control device 40 also includes: a protective cover 43, the protective cover 43 covers the circuit board 41, and the protective cover 43 is connected to the base 10. By setting the protective cover 43, on the one hand, the circuit board 41 is protected from dust pollution, and on the other hand, the circuit board 41 is protected from spilled water or other condensed water pollution, making the circuit board 41 safer and improving the stability of the overall electronic control system.

[0074] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, in some examples, the protective cover 43 has a plug plate 44 and the base 10 has a socket 12, or the protective cover 43 has a socket 12 and the base 10 has a plug plate 44. The plug plate 44 is plugged into the socket 12 to achieve installation and fixation of the protective cover 43. The plug-in method improves the convenience of installing the protective cover 43, and facilitates the disassembly of the protective cover 43 to repair and replace the circuit board 41.

[0075] like Figure 4As shown, in some examples, the protective cover 43 includes a side wall 431 and a top wall 432, the side wall 431 surrounds the outside of the circuit board 41, and the top wall 432 covers the upper part of the circuit board 41, thereby protecting the circuit board 41, and a plug plate 44 is provided at the bottom of the side wall 431, the plug plate 44 includes a vertical section 441 and a horizontal section 442, the vertical section 441 is connected to the side wall 431, the horizontal section 442 is connected to the vertical section 441, and a slot 443 is defined between the horizontal section 442 and the side wall 431, and a socket 12 is provided on the base 10, so that when the plug plate 44 is plugged into the socket 12, the protective cover 43 can slide relative to the base 10 so that the edge of the socket 12 is plugged into the slot 443, achieving a more stable fit and avoiding the protective cover 43 from shaking up and down during transportation, which affects the stability of the overall structure.

[0076] In some examples, the control device 40 communicates with the gravity detection device 30 to issue a reminder when it is detected that the amount of oil in the oil storage box 20 reaches a preset threshold, so as to remind the user to pour out the oil in time to avoid excessive oil overflow or the oil being too heavy to be taken out; wherein, the control device 40 is suitable for communicating with a mobile terminal to adjust the preset threshold of the oil storage box 20 through the mobile terminal. The mobile terminal here can be an application (APP) on a mobile phone or a smart watch, smart glasses, etc. The communication between the control device 40 and the mobile terminal can be direct, and the communication between the control device 40 and the mobile terminal can also be indirect. For example, the integrated stove 200 is provided with a control module (including but not limited to WiFi) that can communicate with the mobile terminal, and the control module communicates with the control device 40 on the base 10, so that the user can change the preset threshold on the mobile terminal.

[0077] By adjusting the preset threshold, the amount of oil in the oil storage box 20 is made to meet the user's usage habits, for example, Fig.10 As shown, the liquid level line of 700g to 1200g is marked on the oil storage box 20. A preset threshold is set by the factory setting. At the same time, there is a corresponding APP on the mobile phone. The user can manually set the preset threshold function on the APP. Users with less strength can set a smaller preset threshold to facilitate the user to have enough strength to pick up the oil storage box 20. Users with greater strength can set a larger preset threshold. Among them, the preset threshold range is between 700g and 1200g, that is, the minimum threshold is 700g and the maximum threshold is 1200g, which avoids oil overflow when the preset threshold is too large and plays a protective role.

[0078] Compared with the prior art which uses a gravity sensor which can only detect whether oil needs to be poured out, the oil box assembly 100 of the present invention can not only detect the specific amount of oil in the oil storage box 20, but also adjust the preset threshold of the oil amount to meet the operational needs of different users and improve the user experience.

[0079] According to one embodiment of the present invention, along the push-pull direction of the oil storage box 20 (such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 The bottom wall 23 of the oil storage box 20 includes: a first bottom wall section 231, a second bottom wall section 232 and a third bottom wall section 233. The second bottom wall section 232 is tilted relative to the base 10, one end of the second bottom wall section 232 is connected to the first bottom wall section 231, and the other end of the second bottom wall section 232 is tilted and extends away from the base 10, thereby generating a certain distance between the second bottom wall section 232 and the base 10; the third bottom wall section 233 is tilted relative to the second bottom wall section 232, and the third bottom wall section 233 is tilted relative to the second bottom wall section 232. One end of the third bottom wall segment 233 is connected to the other end of the second bottom wall segment 232, and relative to the plane where the second bottom wall segment 232 is located, the other end of the third bottom wall segment 233 extends obliquely toward the direction close to the base 10. In this state, the third bottom wall segment 233 is arranged at an interval from the base 10, the avoidance portion 201 corresponds to the position of the second bottom wall segment 232 and the third bottom wall segment 233, and the third bottom wall segment 233 can extend obliquely upward or downward relative to the upper surface of the base 10, or the third bottom wall segment 233 is parallel to the upper surface of the base 10.

[0080] Preferably, the third bottom wall section 233 is parallel to the upper surface of the base 10, thereby facilitating the gravity detection device 30 to be fixed on the upper surface of the base 10 and fit with the third bottom wall section 233 at the same time, thereby more accurately detecting the weight change at the third bottom wall section 233 and improving the accuracy of oil quantity detection.

[0081] In some examples, the angle between the first bottom wall section 231 and the base 10 is 0.1°, or 2°, or greater than 0.1° and less than 2°, thereby reserving sufficient deformation space to facilitate the gravity detection device 30 to detect changes in the amount of oil in the oil storage box 20 in real time, thereby ensuring detection accuracy.

[0082] like Figure 4 As shown, according to one embodiment of the present invention, the oil box assembly 100 further includes: a micro switch 50, which is arranged on the base 10, and a matching portion 25 is provided on the side of the oil storage box 20 facing the micro switch 50. When the oil storage box 20 is installed in place, the matching portion 25 matches with the micro switch 50 to trigger the micro switch 50 to open. The micro switch 50 can be matched with the gravity detection device 30. When the micro switch 50 is turned on, the gravity detection device 30 detects the amount of oil in the oil storage box 20. When the micro switch 50 is turned off, the gravity detection device 30 stops detecting, which can achieve energy saving effect.

[0083] In addition, the micro switch 50 can also cooperate with the gas stove, range hood and other modules of the integrated stove 200. When the micro switch 50 is turned on, the information that the oil storage box 20 is installed in place is obtained, thereby controlling the gas stove, range hood and other modules to work. When the micro switch 50 is closed, the information that the oil storage box 20 is not installed in place is obtained, thereby controlling the gas stove, range hood and other modules to be unable to start working, thereby preventing the oil and water generated by the gas stove, range hood and other modules from dripping to the outside of the oil storage box 20.

[0084] In some examples, the mating portion 25 is the outer wall surface of the oil storage box 20, that is, when the outer wall surface of the oil storage box 20 cooperates with the micro switch 50, the micro switch 50 can be opened. The outer wall surface of the oil storage box 20 has a larger contact area, which facilitates the cooperation between the oil storage box 20 and the micro switch 50.

[0085] like Figure 4 As shown, in other examples, the mating portion 25 is a convex point protruding from the outer wall of the oil storage box 20, and the height of the convex point protruding from the outer wall of the oil storage box 20 can be 0-2mm. The convex point cooperates with the micro switch 50, thereby ensuring that the oil storage box 20 is installed in place and improving the accuracy of the installation. The convex point and the micro switch 50 have an interference fit, so even if the integrated stove 200 falls during transportation and causes a slight deformation of the bottom panel (i.e., the skirting board), the oil storage box 20 can still contact the micro switch 50, ensuring that the micro switch 50 can be normally turned on and off, thereby ensuring the normal use of the gravity detection device 30.

[0086] like Figure 8 As shown, in other examples, the mating portion 25 is a convex rib protruding from the outer wall of the oil storage box 20, and the height of the convex rib protruding from the outer wall of the oil storage box 20 can be 0-2mm. The convex rib cooperates with the micro switch 50, thereby ensuring that the oil storage box 20 is installed in place and improving the accuracy of installation. The convex rib and the micro switch 50 have an interference fit, so even if the integrated stove 200 falls during transportation and causes a slight deformation of the bottom panel (i.e., the skirting board), the oil storage box 20 can still contact the micro switch 50, ensuring that the micro switch 50 can be normally turned on and off, thereby ensuring the normal use of the gravity detection device 30.

[0087] like Figure 4 As shown, in some examples, a boss 33 is provided on the upper surface of the gravity detection device 30, a micro switch 50 is arranged on the boss 33, and the micro switch 50 is fixedly connected to the gravity detection device 30. Since the bottom of the oil storage box 20 has an avoidance portion 201, the position of the micro switch 50 is raised by installing the micro switch 50 on the gravity detection device 30. There is no need to additionally set a fixing part to fix the micro switch 50, and at the same time, the oil storage box 20 and the micro switch 50 are convenient for cooperation.

[0088] The integrated stove 200 according to the embodiment of the present invention includes the oil box assembly 100 for the integrated stove 200 according to the embodiment of the present invention, which improves the accuracy of the oil amount detection result and improves the compactness and stability of the overall structure.

[0089] like Fig.11 As shown, in some examples, the bottom of the integrated stove 200 has a surrounding plate 60, and an opening 61 is provided at the surrounding plate 60. The oil storage box 20 can be pushed and pulled at the opening 61. When the oil storage box 20 is installed in place, the outer side surface of the oil storage box 20 closes the opening 61 and is located in the same plane as the surrounding plate 60. The outer surface of the integrated stove 200 is beautiful and elegant, and the user has a good visual experience.
