Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the field of electric rice cookers, in particular to a blood sugar reducing electric rice cooker. Background Art

[0002] In the blood sugar lowering rice cooker, during the cooking process, the amylopectin in the rice gradually dissolves into the rice soup as the cooking time and temperature increase. Therefore, during the cooking process, when the rice is half cooked, the half cooked rice is separated, the rice soup is drained, and the half cooked rice is further steamed. In this way, the rice cooked will have a lower glycemic index. This allows the human body to take in less glucose while eating the same amount of rice, but still have the same sense of fullness, thereby playing a role in controlling blood sugar. Therefore, it is very important to invent a rice cooker that can pour out the rice soup during the cooking process, steam the rice, and thus reduce the amylopectin content of the rice. Summary of the invention

[0003] The object of the present invention is to provide a sugar-reducing electric rice cooker with a simple structure and capable of reducing the starch content of rice.

[0004] The object of the present invention is achieved in that:

[0005] A hypoglycemic rice cooker comprises a cover, an outer pot, an inner pot and an inner pot, wherein a waste water cavity is formed at the bottom of the inner cavity of the outer pot, the inner cavity of the inner pot is a liquid storage area, a drainage channel is formed at the bottom of the inner pot, a heating plate is formed at the bottom of the inner pot located outside the drainage channel, the inner pot is seated in the inner cavity of the outer pot, an outlet of the drainage channel is connected to the waste water cavity, the inner pot is suspended in the inner pot, and further comprises a floating device, wherein the floating device comprises a floating cover floating with the liquid level of the liquid storage area, a sleeve and a sealing cover for sealing or unblocking the drainage hole, the floating cover is arranged at the upper part of the sleeve, the sealing cover is arranged at the lower part of the sleeve, a metal sheet attracted by a magnet is arranged in the inner cavity of the sleeve, a blocking cover is arranged at the entrance of the drainage channel, the blocking cover has a drainage hole connected to the drainage channel, and a guide column with a built-in magnet is also arranged on the blocking cover, the guide column extends into the inner cavity of the sleeve, and the guide column and the floating device are movably connected. When cooking starts (the temperature is low), the magnetic force generated by the magnet is greater than the buoyancy, so the floating device overcomes the buoyancy and moves downward along the guide column, so that the sealing cover of the floating device is tightly attached to the drainage hole to seal the drainage hole, and the starch of the rice dissolves into the water in the liquid storage area to form rice soup. During the cooking process, the temperature gradually increases, and the buoyancy gradually becomes greater than the magnetic force. Therefore, the floating device overcomes the magnetic force and moves upward along the guide column, so that the sealing cover of the floating device is away from the drainage hole, unblocking the drainage hole. The drainage channel is unblocked and the rice soup is gradually discharged. The heating plate continues to heat the rice soup in the liquid storage area to generate steam to cook the rice in the inner pot, thereby reducing the sugar content of the rice during the cooking process.

[0006] The purpose of the present invention can also be solved by the following technical measures:

[0007] As a more specific solution, the blocking cover is higher than the bottom surface of the inner cavity of the inner pot, and a minimum liquid level area is formed between the blocking cover surface and the bottom surface of the inner cavity of the inner pot. Since the heating plate heats the rice soup in the liquid storage area to generate steam to cook the rice in the inner pot, and since the rice soup in the liquid storage area is gradually discharged during the cooking process, the minimum liquid level area is set to avoid dry burning. Even if the rice soup in the liquid storage area is discharged, it will not cause dry burning, thereby improving the safety of the blood sugar reduction rice cooker.

[0008] As a more specific solution, the center position of the blocking cover is recessed downward to form a mounting area, the guide column is fixed at the center of the mounting area, and the drainage holes are spaced apart at the periphery of the mounting area.

[0009] As a more specific solution, the magnet is arranged on the top of the guide post.

[0010] As a more specific solution, the inner cavity of the sleeve is an active cavity, and an iron sheet is arranged on the top of the active cavity. The beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows:

[0011] According to the present invention, when cooking begins (temperature is relatively low), the magnetic force generated by the magnet is greater than the buoyancy, so the floating device overcomes the buoyancy and moves downward along the guide column, so that the sealing cover of the floating device is tightly attached to the drainage hole to seal the drainage hole, and the starch of the rice is dissolved into the water in the liquid storage area to form rice soup. During the cooking process, the temperature gradually rises, and the buoyancy gradually becomes greater than the magnetic force, so the floating device overcomes the magnetic force and moves upward along the guide column, so that the sealing cover of the floating device is away from the drainage hole, the drainage hole is unblocked, the drainage channel is unblocked and the rice soup is gradually discharged, and the heating plate continues to heat the rice soup in the liquid storage area to generate steam to cook the rice in the inner pot, thereby reducing the sugar content of the rice during the cooking process.

[0012] According to the present invention, the heating plate heats the rice soup in the liquid storage area to generate steam to cook the rice in the inner pot, and the rice soup in the liquid storage area is gradually discharged during the cooking process, so as to avoid dry burning. A minimum liquid level area is provided, and dry burning will not occur even if the rice soup in the liquid storage area is discharged, thereby improving the safety of the blood sugar reducing rice cooker.

[0017] The present invention will be further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments:

[0018] Example, combined with Figures 1 to 4 As shown, a blood sugar reduction rice cooker includes a cover 1, an outer pot 2, an inner pot 3, an inner pot 4, a floating device 5 and a guide column 6.

[0019] The inner cavity of the inner pot 3 is a liquid storage area 31 , a drainage channel 32 is provided at the bottom of the inner pot 3 , and a heating plate 33 is provided at the bottom of the inner pot 3 outside the drainage channel 32 .

[0020] The inner pot 3 is convex upward at the entrance of the drainage channel 32 to form a blocking cover 7, and the blocking cover 7 is higher than the bottom surface of the inner cavity of the inner pot 3. A minimum liquid level area 34 is formed between the surface of the blocking cover 7 and the bottom surface of the inner cavity of the inner pot 3, and the center position of the blocking cover 7 is concave downward to form an installation area 71, and the periphery of the installation area 71 is spaced apart with drainage holes 72 connected to the drainage channel 32.

[0021] The guide column 6 is arranged at the center of the installation area 71 , and a magnet 8 is arranged on the top of the guide column 6 .

[0022] The floating device 5 includes a floating cover 51 that floats with the liquid level of the liquid storage area 31, a sleeve 52 and a sealing cover 53 for sealing or unblocking the drainage hole 72. The floating cover 51 is arranged on the upper part of the sleeve 52, and the sealing cover 53 is arranged on the lower part of the sleeve 52. The inner cavity of the sleeve 52 is an active cavity 521, and an iron sheet 9 attracted by the magnet 8 is arranged on the top of the active cavity 521.

[0023] The bottom of the inner cavity of the outer pot 2 is provided with a wastewater cavity 21 , the inner pot 3 is seated in the outer pot 2 , the outlet of the drainage channel 32 is connected to the wastewater cavity 21 , the outer wall of the inner pot 4 is provided with a through hole 41 , and the inner pot 4 is suspended in the inner cavity of the inner pot 3 .

[0024] Working principle:

[0025] The user places the inner pot 3 in the outer pot 2 and the inner pot 4 in the inner pot 3. At this time, the user adds washed rice into the inner pot 4 and adds appropriate water to the liquid storage area 31 until the water soaks the rice, and then closes the pot cover 1 to cook.

[0026] When starting to cook rice at a lower temperature:

[0027] The magnetic force of the magnet 8 of the guide column 6 attracts the iron sheet 9 of the floating device 5. As the liquid level in the liquid storage area 31 rises, the liquid in the liquid storage area 31 generates an upward buoyancy. However, the magnetic force generated by the magnet 8 is greater than the buoyancy. Therefore, the floating device 5 overcomes the buoyancy and moves downward along the guide column 6, so that the sealing cover 53 of the floating device 5 is tightly attached to the drainage hole 72 to seal the drainage hole 72, thereby sealing the drainage channel 32. The starch of the rice dissolves into the water in the liquid storage area 31 to form rice soup.

[0028] The temperature gradually increases during the cooking process:

[0029] As the rice is cooked, the heating plate 33 generates heat, which heats the rice soup in the liquid storage area 31 to generate steam to cook the rice in the inner pot 4. Since the magnet 8 gradually loses its magnetic force at high temperature, the liquid in the liquid storage area 31 generates an upward buoyancy greater than the magnetic force. Therefore, the floating device 5 overcomes the magnetic force and moves upward along the guide column 6, so that the sealing cover 53 of the floating device 5 is away from the drainage hole 72, the drainage hole 72 is unblocked, and the drainage channel 32 is unblocked.

[0030] At this time, the rice soup enters the drainage channel 32 through the drainage hole 72 and the inlet of the drainage channel 32 , and finally flows into the waste water chamber 21 of the outer pot 2 through the outlet of the drainage channel 32 for storage or discharge.

[0031] As the rice soup formed in the water of the liquid storage area 31 decreases, the floating cover 51 gradually decreases its floating height along with the height of the rice soup until the floating device 5 sits on the guide column 6. At this time, the sealing cover 53 of the floating device 5 is tightly attached to the drainage hole 72 to seal the drainage hole 72, thereby sealing the drainage channel 32.

[0032] Finally, the heating plate 33 continues to work to heat the rice soup in the minimum liquid level area 34, thereby generating steam to cook the rice in the inner pot 4, reducing the sugar content of the rice in the inner pot 4, avoiding dry burning, and improving the safety of the sugar-reducing rice cooker.
