[0043] The present invention provides a cooking machine, as Figures 1 to 8 shown, which includes a pot body 1, a cooking chamber 2, and a vegetable feeding device 3. The vegetable feeding device 3 includes a first driving mechanism 31, a vegetable guiding frame 32, and a side dish box 33. The pot body 1 is installed in the cooking chamber 2. The vegetable guiding frame 32 is rotatably connected to the inside of the cooking chamber 2 and the vegetable guiding frame 32 is located above the pot body 1. The side dish box 33 is detachably connected to the vegetable guiding frame 32. The first driving mechanism 31 is adapted to drive the vegetable guiding frame 32 to rotate to drive the side dish box 33 to feed vegetables.

[0044] It should be noted that the pot body 1 is rotatably connected to the inside of the cooking chamber 2, and the pot body 1 is driven by a motor. An installation cavity structure is formed between the cooking chamber 2 and the housing 4, and the motor is installed in the installation cavity structure. The first driving mechanism can be a motor, a servo motor or other mechanisms that can be used to drive the vegetable guiding frame to rotate. When the cooking machine works, the dishes are placed in the side dish box 33, and then the side dish box 33 is installed on the vegetable guiding frame 32. The first driving mechanism 31 drives the vegetable guiding frame 32 to rotate to pour the pre-configured dishes into the pot body 1. Here, the side dish box 33 and the vegetable guiding frame 32 can be connected by magnetic attraction, snap fit or other easily detachable connection methods. After the vegetable feeding is completed, the side dish box 33 can be detached and taken out from the vegetable guiding frame 32.

[0045] The advantage of such a setting is that when vegetable feeding is required, the side dish box 33 is connected to the vegetable guiding rack 32, and the first driving mechanism 31 drives the vegetable guiding rack 32 to feed vegetables. During the stir-frying process, the vegetable guiding rack 32 and the side dish box 33 are placed inside the stir-frying chamber 2, which can avoid unnecessary risks caused by accidental contact of an external vegetable feeding mechanism. In addition, the top of the stir-frying machine can also be used for temporarily placing tools, thus avoiding the need to add an extra storage cabinet and indirectly saving kitchen space. Moreover, the vegetable receiving device 5 can send out the vegetable plate from the stir-frying machine without reaching into the interior of the stir-frying machine to pick up the vegetables, and the vegetable outlet area of the vegetable outlet 41 is relatively smaller, thereby reducing the space volume of the stir-frying machine.

[0046] As Figures 1 to 8 shown,[[]] Figures 17 to 20 shown, the stir-frying machine provided in this embodiment further includes a housing 4, a vegetable receiving device 5 and a seasoning bin 6; the pot body 1 is rotatably connected to the stir-frying chamber 2, and an installation chamber is formed between the housing 4 and the stir-frying chamber 2; the seasoning bin 6 is arranged on the upper side of the stir-frying chamber 2;

[0047] The vegetable receiving device 5 is arranged on the lower side of the stir-frying chamber 2, and a vegetable outlet 41 suitable for the vegetable receiving device 5 to pass through is formed on the housing 4. The vegetable receiving device 5 has a first position for receiving the vegetables in the pot body 1 and a second position for sending out the vegetable plate from the housing 4.

[0048] It should be noted that the first position refers to the position where the vegetable receiving device 5 moves into the interior of the stir-frying machine. At this time, the pot body 1 rotates around the X axis to the opposite side of the Y axis and corresponds to the position of the vegetable receiving device, and then the vegetables are poured. The second position refers to the position where at least part of the vegetable receiving device 5 moves outside the stir-frying machine to send out the vegetable plate from the stir-frying machine.

[0049] The vegetable receiving device 5 includes a second driving mechanism 51, a gear and rack assembly, a tray 52 and a vegetable receiving tray 53. The second driving mechanism 51 is drivingly connected to the gear and rack assembly. The gear and rack assembly is connected to the tray 52, and the vegetable receiving tray 53 is placed on the tray 52. The second driving mechanism 51 is adapted to drive the tray 52 to make a linear reciprocating motion along the vegetable receiving direction through the gear and rack assembly.

[0050] The gear and rack assembly includes a gear and a rack. In one implementation, the gear is arranged on the tray 52 and the rack is arranged on the stir-frying chamber or other structures; in one implementation, the gear is arranged on the stir-frying chamber or other structures and the rack is arranged on the tray 52. A positioning structure can be arranged on the tray 52 for positioning the vegetable receiving tray 53. When the second driving mechanism 51 drives the tray 52 to move, the vegetable receiving tray 53 on the tray 52 is also driven to move to receive the vegetables. The vegetable receiving direction here is the Y-axis direction in the figure.

[0051] Through the arrangement of the gear rack assembly, on the one hand, the tray 52 can be driven to receive the food. On the other hand, due to the large length of the rack, when the rack is extended out of the cooking machine, as long as the rack part is inside the cooking machine, it can cooperate with the gear to realize transmission.

[0052] Usually, the process of picking up food needs to be done frequently, but the filter cleaning does not need to be done frequently. Figures 17 to 20 As shown, the cooking machine also includes a filter 61 and a filter tank 62. The filter 61 is arranged on the tray 52. ​​The filter 61 is located on the side of the tray 52 away from the vegetable receiving plate 53. The filter tank 62 is arranged below the vegetable receiving device 5. The second driving mechanism 51 is installed on the outer wall of the filter tank 62.

[0053] That is to say, in this embodiment, the receiving plate 53 and the filter 61 are placed on the tray 52. ​​When the dishes need to be served, the receiving plate 53 only needs to be sent out of the cooker, and the filter 61 remains inside the cooker. When the filter 61 needs to be cleaned, the filter 61 is sent out of the cooker, which can avoid frequently sending the filter 61 out of the cooker.

[0054] The residues left when the pot body 1 is cleaned are washed onto the filter 61, and water flows through the filter 61 and the filtrate holes on the tray 52 to the filter tank 62, and the remaining vegetables are left on the filter 61; when it is necessary to remove the remaining vegetables or clean the filter 61, the tray 52 is driven by the vegetable receiving device to move along the direction of its length, and at the same time, the filter 61 is driven in and out of the shell 4 of the cooking machine, so that the staff can smoothly remove the filter 61 from the tray 52. ​​Compared with the existing method of only being able to remove the residues inside the cooking machine shell, the operation is more convenient and efficient.

[0055] Since the residues on the filter 61 are removed from the shell 4 of the cooker, the staff does not need to put their hands into the shell 4 of the cooker, so that the installation part of the filter 61 does not need to leave too much avoidance space, the height of the cooker in the vertical direction is reduced, and the overall structure of the machine body is more compact.

[0056] When the pot body 1 needs to be cleaned after pouring out the food, a high-pressure water flow is used to flush the inner pot, and the remaining food in the pot is flushed onto the filter 61, and the waste water flows out from the filtrate holes on the tray 52; when the residue on the filter 61 needs to be removed, the moving mechanism drives the filter 61 to move through the tray 52 until the filter 61 moves to the outside of the shell 4, and the filter 61 is taken out.

[0057] like Figures 17 to 20As shown, the rack and pinion assembly includes a pinion 54 and a rack 55. The rack 55 is connected to the tray 52. The pinion 54 is drivingly connected to the second driving mechanism 51. The pinion 54 is disposed near the food outlet. The length of the rack 55 is greater than or equal to the length of the food receiving tray 53 and less than the length of the tray 52. The rack 55 extends along the food receiving direction from one end of the tray 52 near the food outlet towards the side close to the pot body 1.

[0058] That is to say, one end of the rack 55 can be flush with one end of the tray 52 near the reverse direction of the Y axis. The length direction of the rack 55 and the tray 52 is the Y axis direction in the figure, and the pinion 54 is disposed near one end of the tray in the reverse direction of the Y axis. Preferably, the length of the rack 55 is the same as the length of the food receiving tray 53. In this way, when the rack 55 sends the food receiving tray 53 out of the cooking machine, the cooperation with the pinion 54 can be released, and the filter screen 61 will not be moved out of the cooking machine. When the filter screen needs to be cleaned, since the rack and pinion have been disengaged, only the tray 52 needs to be pulled out.

[0059] In this embodiment, as Figure 1 and Figure 2 shown, the cooking machine further includes a door body 45. An opening 42 is formed on the cooking chamber 2. The opening 42 is adapted for the passing of the side dish box 33. The door body 45 is rotatably connected to the opening 42, and the door body 45 is adapted for opening or closing the opening 42. Here, the door body 45 can be connected to the housing 4 in the form of a hinge and seal the opening 42 on the cooking chamber 2. Before cooking, first install the side dish box 33 onto the vegetable guiding rack 32 through the opening 42, and then close the door body 45. When the side dish box 33 needs to be taken out, open the door body 45 and take out the side dish box 33 from the vegetable guiding rack 32, thereby achieving full sealing during the cooking process.

[0060] In this embodiment, as Figures 9 to 12 shown, the vegetable guiding rack 32 includes a receiving structure 321. The receiving structure 321 is adapted to receive the side dish box 33. After the side dish box 33 is received in the receiving structure 321, it is adapted to be detachably connected to the vegetable guiding rack 32. The side dish box 33 includes at least two ingredient boxes 331. The vegetable guiding rack 32 includes a baffle mechanism 34. The baffle mechanism 34 includes at least two baffles 341. A food throwing opening 322 is formed on the receiving structure 321. The baffle 341 covers the food throwing opening 322. Each baffle 341 matches with an ingredient box 331 and is adapted to open or close the ingredient box 331 that matches it.

[0061] The vegetable guiding rack 32 is generally square in shape and has two opposite sides, namely the left side and the right side. At positions near the center on the left side and the right side, rotating shafts are respectively connected through bolts and mounting brackets. The rotating shafts on the left side and the right side are respectively connected to the frame of the cooking machine through bearings; the rotating shafts adopt hollow rotating shafts 328. The hollow rotating shafts 328 are not only lighter in weight, making the feeding mechanism flip more flexibly, but also facilitate the wires inside the vegetable guiding rack 32 to pass through the rotating shafts; the electric motor is drivingly connected to the rotating shaft on the right side of the vegetable guiding rack 32 through a transmission member, and can drive the rotating shaft to drive the vegetable guiding rack to flip 180°. The inside of the vegetable guiding rack 32 is hollow and closed all around. The top of the vegetable guiding rack 32 is provided with a funnel-shaped opening for putting food ingredients into the pot body 1 after the vegetable guiding rack 32 flips 180°. The lower part of the vegetable guiding rack 32 is a square frame. The inside of the square frame is hollow and closed all around to form a containing structure 321. The front side of the square frame is also provided with an opening for putting the side dish box 33 into or taking it out of the containing structure 321; the side dish box 33 is made of a plastic box. The plastic box is not only light in weight, which can improve the flexibility of the feeding mechanism to flip, but also low in price and economical and practical.

[0062] In this way, the containing structure 321 is arranged on the vegetable guiding rack 32, which is convenient for accommodating the side dish box 33 in the vegetable guiding rack 32, reduces the overall size, and can simplify the structure of the feeding mechanism. By arranging the rotating shaft at a position near the center on the side of the vegetable guiding rack 32 and using the first driving mechanism 31 to drive the vegetable guiding rack 32 to drive the side dish box 33 to flip around the rotating shaft, the vegetable guiding rack 32 can flip within the range of its own size space, which can reduce the operation space during feeding. At the same time, the side dish box 33 is detachably connected to the vegetable guiding rack 32, which is convenient for replacing food ingredients and cleaning the side dish box 33.

[0063] As Figure 1 and Figure 2 shown, the vegetable guiding rack 32 further includes a chute structure 326. The chute structure 326 communicates with the containing structure 321. The vegetable guiding rack 32 has a first position suitable for installing the side dish box 33. When the vegetable guiding rack 32 is in the first position, the entrance of the chute structure 326 corresponds to the position of the opening 42.

[0064] The chute structure 326 can be arranged above, below or on the side of the containing structure 321. One or more chute structures 326 can be arranged. The cross-sectional shape of the chute structure 326 can be in various shapes such as U-shaped, V-shaped, T-shaped, curved, zigzag or a combination thereof; slide rails can be arranged on the side dish box 33, and the shape, quantity and installation position of the slide rails can be set correspondingly according to the shape, quantity and position of the chute structure 326.

[0065] In this embodiment, the chute structure 326 is arranged above the accommodating structure 321. After the upper border on the front side of the square frame at the lower part of the vegetable guiding rack 32 is inwardly retracted upward, stepped structures are respectively formed with the upper borders on the left and right sides, and the space between the left stepped structure and the right stepped structure forms the chute structure 326. Thus, only a slight adjustment to the square frame is needed to form the chute structure 326 without adding other additional structures, which not only saves costs but also simplifies the structure of the feeding mechanism. The side dish box 33 is a lidless box body, and an opening structure is provided on its upper end surface. The edge of the opening structure extends outward and is folded downward to form an eaves-like structure. The whole eaves-like structure can be accommodated in the chute structure 326, and the parts on the left and right sides of the eaves-like structure are suitable for sliding in the chute structure 326 as slide rails. The side dish box 33 is a plastic material box, and using the eaves-like structure as the slide rail can be integrally injection-molded with the box body, which can reduce the number of mold openings and thus save costs.

[0066] In this way, by arranging the chute structure 326 communicating with the accommodating structure 321 in the vegetable guiding rack 32 and setting the slide rails on the side dish box 33 suitable for sliding along the chute structure 326, it is convenient to load the side dish box 33 into the accommodating structure 321 of the vegetable guiding rack 32.

[0067] As Figures 13 - 16 shown, the side dish box 33 includes at least two material boxes 331, the vegetable guiding rack 32 includes a baffle mechanism 34, the baffle mechanism 34 includes at least two baffles 341, a food throwing opening 322 is formed on the accommodating structure 321, the baffle 341 covers the food throwing opening 322, and each baffle 341 matches with a material box 331 and is suitable for opening or closing the material box 331 that matches it.

[0068] As Figure 16 shown, the multiple material boxes 331 can be separated along the length direction of the side dish box 33, or along the width direction of the side dish box 33, or along a certain angle with the length direction or width direction of the side dish box 33. The sizes of the respective material boxes 331 can be the same, or can be set to different sizes and shapes according to needs.

[0069] In this embodiment, the side dish box 33 is divided into unequal parts along the length direction and the width direction respectively to form a plurality of material boxes 331 with different sizes. The plurality of material boxes 331 with different sizes can be used to hold ingredients with different weights and forms, making the space utilization more sufficient. There are gaps between the bin walls of adjacent material boxes 331. Since the slide rail slides in the chute structure 326 along the width direction of the side dish box 33 when the side dish box 33 is loaded into the accommodating structure 321, the gap between two adjacent material boxes 331 along the length direction is consistent with the moving direction of the slide rail, so that a positioning groove matching the positioning post can be formed. Using the gap between adjacent material boxes 331 to form the positioning groove only requires a slight adjustment of the gap between the material boxes 331, and no additional structure needs to be added to form the positioning groove, which not only saves costs but also simplifies the structure of the food feeding mechanism.

[0070] In this embodiment, the baffle 341 can be a metal baffle with relatively high strength. Each baffle 341 and the vegetable guiding rack 32 can be connected by a hinge to open or close the side dish box 33, or can be connected by a slideway to slide to open or close the side dish box 33. The shape of the baffle 341 can be set according to the opening shape of each material box 331 so as to be able to completely open or close the material box 331 at its corresponding position without affecting the opening or closing of another adjacent baffle 341. There is no limitation here.

[0071] In this way, by arranging a plurality of baffles 341 corresponding to the material boxes 331 one by one on the vegetable guiding rack 32, after the feeding mechanism is turned over, different material boxes 331 of the side dish box 33 can be opened or closed as needed, making the feeding more controllable.

[0072] As Figures 9 - 13 shown, the vegetable guiding rack 32 is a cavity structure closed on all sides. The top of the cavity structure is provided with a second opening structure 323, the bottom of the cavity structure is provided with a first opening structure 325, the second opening structure 323 and the first opening structure 325 communicate with each other. The top of the cavity structure is provided with a hollow structure, and the hollow structure forms the second opening structure 323; the bottom of the cavity structure is provided with a funnel-shaped structure, and the funnel-shaped structure forms the first opening structure 325.

[0073] The top of the cavity structure is provided with a hollow structure, and the hollow structure forms the second opening structure 323.

[0074] As Figures 9 - 13As shown, the hollow structure can be set to multiple holes of uniform size, or to holes of different sizes. The multiple holes can be regularly arranged along the length direction or the width direction of the vegetable guide rack 32, or arranged arbitrarily. The shape of the holes can be triangular, square, polygonal, circular, or various combinations thereof.

[0075] In this embodiment, the upper bottom surface of the vegetable guide rack 32 is a planar structure. Multiple rectangular holes of different sizes are provided in the middle and on both sides of the planar structure. The rectangular hole at the middle position is similar in shape to the planar structure, and the rectangular holes on both sides are rectangular in shape along the width direction of the vegetable guide rack 32. The part between several rectangular holes is used to support the material box. The hollow structure can not only reduce the weight of the vegetable guide rack 32, but also form a second opening structure 323, facilitating the insertion of a cleaning tool into the interior of the vegetable guide rack 32 for flushing.

[0076] In this way, by providing a hollow structure at the top of the cavity structure to form a second opening structure 323, not only can the weight of the vegetable guide rack 32 be reduced, but also a cleaning tool can be conveniently inserted into the interior of the vegetable guide rack 32 for flushing.

[0077] Optionally, a funnel-shaped structure is provided at the bottom of the cavity structure, and the funnel-shaped structure forms a first opening structure 325.

[0078] As Figures 9 - 13 shown, in this embodiment, the lower bottom surface of the vegetable guide rack 32 is composed of multiple planar structures or curved surface structures of different sizes spliced together, and is in a downwardly convex funnel shape. The first opening structure 325 is provided on the lower bottom surface of the vegetable guide rack 32 and is surrounded by the sides of multiple planar structures or curved surface structures away from the second opening structure 323.

[0079] In this way, by providing a funnel-shaped structure at the bottom of the cavity structure to form a first opening structure 325, it is convenient to concentrate the ingredients and put them into the cooking pot, making it not easy to scatter. At the same time, when cleaning the interior of the vegetable guide rack 32, the waste water and residues after cleaning can be concentrated, making it not easy to splash everywhere during discharge.

[0080] As Figure 9 shown, the vegetable guide rack 32 further includes a material guide hopper 329. The entrance of the material guide hopper 329 corresponds to the position of the vegetable feeding port 322, and the material guide hopper 329 is adapted to guide the vegetables in the side dish box 33 to the pot body 1.

[0081] That is to say, the first opening structure 325 is the opening of the material guiding hopper 329. Here, the lower bottom surface of the material guiding hopper 329 is formed by splicing a plurality of planar structures or curved surface structures of different sizes and is in the shape of a downwardly convex funnel. The vegetable guiding rack 32 is presented as a cavity structure. By arranging a funnel-shaped structure at the bottom of the cavity structure, the first opening structure 325 is formed, which is convenient for concentrating the ingredients and putting them into the pot body 1 so that they are not easily scattered. At the same time, when cleaning the inside of the vegetable guiding rack 32, the waste water and residues after cleaning can be concentrated so that they are not easily splashed everywhere during discharge.

[0082] As Figure 14 and Figure 15 shown, the baffle mechanism 34 further includes a rotating shaft 342. The baffle 341 includes a rotating part 343 and a clearance part 344. The rotating part 343 is rotatably connected to the rotating shaft 342, and the clearance part 344 is adapted to accommodate the rotating part 343 of another baffle 341.

[0083] It should be noted that the shape of each baffle 341 matches the shape of the opening of the corresponding material box 331, and can be various shapes such as triangular, rectangular, polygonal, circular or a combination thereof. The rotating part 343 of the baffle 341 can be a hinge, a ball or other forms of articulated parts. The baffle 341 can adopt a detachable connection structure such as a connection hole, a buckle, a magnetic attraction part or other forms.

[0084] In this embodiment, one end of the baffle 341 connected to the rotating shaft 342 is curled towards the direction away from the material box 331 to form the rotating part 343. The rotating shaft 342 adopts a rotating shaft with a circular cross-sectional shape. The rotating part 343 is sleeved on the rotating shaft 342 and is articulated with the rotating shaft 342. Using a rotating shaft with a circular cross-section facilitates the rotation of the baffle 341. One end of the baffle 341 connected to the rotating shaft 342 is curled to form the rotating part 343, with simple process and convenient production, without the need for more parts, which is beneficial to cost saving; after the rotating shaft 342 passes through the rotating parts 343 of a plurality of baffles 341, the left and right ends of the rotating shaft 342 respectively pass through the left side plate and the right side plate of the vegetable guiding rack 32 and are fixedly connected to the vegetable guiding rack 32 by bolts. The bolt connection is easy to disassemble and assemble, which is convenient for maintenance.

[0085] As Figure 13As shown, the rotating part 343 of each baffle 341 may set the number of the rotating part 343 or the clearance part 344 according to the length of the baffle 341. For example, a rotating part 343 is arranged in the middle of one end of the baffle 341 connected to the rotating shaft 342, and a clearance part 344 is arranged on each side of the rotating part 343, or a clearance part 344 is arranged in the middle of one end of the baffle 341 connected to the rotating shaft 342, and a rotating part 343 is arranged on each side of the clearance part 344. By analogy, it may also be arranged to include a plurality of rotating parts 343 and clearance parts 344 distributed at intervals. In short, the space formed by the clearance parts 344 of the baffles 341 on one side of the rotating shaft 342 can accommodate the rotating parts 343 of the baffles 341 on the other side of the rotating shaft 342.

[0086] In this embodiment, the rotating part 343 of each baffle 341 includes at least two rotating parts 343 arranged at intervals. Each baffle 341 is hinged to the rotating shaft 342 through at least two rotating parts 343 arranged at intervals, which not only makes the rotating axis of the baffle 341 more consistent with the axial direction of the rotating shaft 342, enables the baffle 341 to rotate more smoothly, reduces noise, and improves the reliability of the baffle mechanism. At the same time, it can also make the baffle 341 close more tightly with the opening of the material box 331, prevent the food ingredients from leaking out of the material box 331, and improve the cooking quality of the cooking machine.

[0087] As Figure 14 shown, the vegetable guiding rack 32 further includes at least two electromagnets 324. Each electromagnet 324 is suitable for being energized or de-energized separately, and the electromagnets 324 correspond to the positions of the baffles 341 respectively; the electromagnets 324 are suitable for adsorbing the baffles 341.

[0088] One or more electromagnets 324 are provided. Each electromagnet 324 is suitable for being energized or de-energized separately. In the axial direction parallel to the rotating shaft 342, a plurality of electromagnets 324 are arranged on the vegetable guiding rack 32 in sequence. A second connection structure may be arranged on the baffle 341. The second connection structure of each baffle 341 matches at least one electromagnet 324, and the magnetic attraction cooperation with the second connection structure is realized through the electromagnet 324 to realize the grasping of the baffle 341.

[0089] As Figure 1 and Figure 2 shown, a plurality of electromagnets 324 may be arranged at equal intervals in the axial direction parallel to the rotating shaft 342 according to the length of the baffle 341, or may be arranged at different intervals in the axial direction parallel to the rotating shaft 342 according to the number of the baffles 341.

[0090] In this embodiment, a plurality of electromagnets are arranged at equal intervals on the inner walls of the front and rear sides of the food guide rack 32, and different numbers of electromagnets are configured according to the length of the baffle 341. Thus, the layout of the electromagnets on the food guide rack 32 is more beautiful. At the same time, it is not only possible to better utilize the adsorption force of each electromagnet, so that the adsorption force obtained by the baffles 341 of different lengths is more uniform, but also to prevent the baffle 341 of longer length from unilaterally tilting, thereby improving the sealing of the baffle 341. Preferably, the electromagnet 324 can also be used to adsorb the side dish box 33. It is only necessary to adsorb the baffle 341 and the side dish box 33 by the electromagnet 324 at the same time. Since there are multiple electromagnets 324, and not all of the electromagnets 324 are disconnected at the same time when the food is served, only one of the electromagnets 324 needs to be energized to achieve the adsorption of the side dish box 33. When the side dish box 33 needs to be taken out, it is only necessary to disconnect all of the electromagnets 324.

[0091] like Figures 9 - 12 As shown, when food is served to the target box, the corresponding electromagnet 324 is controlled to be disconnected, and the first driving mechanism 31 controls the food guide rack 32 to flip so that the baffle 341 opens the target box to serve food; when food in the target box is finished, the corresponding electromagnet 324 is controlled to be energized, and the first driving mechanism 31 controls the food guide rack 32 to flip so that the baffle 341 is reset.

[0092] It should be noted that the target material box refers to the material box 331 to be fed. Figure 9 It is a schematic diagram of installing the side dish box 33 on the food guide rack 32 before cooking. When cooking, first slide the side dish box 33 into the containing structure 321 through the slide groove structure 326. At this time, the opening of the side dish box 33 is facing upward, so the food in the side dish box 33 will not spill out. After the side dish box 33 slides into the containing structure 321, it is detachably connected to the food guide rack 32. The baffle 341 also blocks the opening of the material box 331. At the same time, the electromagnet 324 adsorbs the baffle 341. When it is necessary to serve food, the first driving mechanism 31 rotates 180 degrees. Since the baffle 341 is adsorbed by the electromagnet 324, the baffle 341 will not open the material box 331. At this time, the electromagnet 324 corresponding to the target material box is controlled to be closed, thereby releasing the electromagnet 324, and the food in the corresponding material box 331 slides into the guide hopper 329 and slides into the pot body 1. When the food is served, the first driving mechanism 31 rotates 180 degrees to reset the baffle 341, and the electromagnet 324 continues to be energized to adsorb the baffle 341.

[0093] Thus, by placing different dishes or ingredients in different ingredient boxes 331, during the stir-frying process, the dishes or ingredients in different ingredient boxes 331 can be separately controlled to be dispensed within a set time, thereby making the stir-fried dishes more delicious.

[0094] As Figure 14 shown, the vegetable guide rack 32 further includes a hollow rotating shaft 328, the hollow rotating shaft 328 is rotatably connected to the stir-frying chamber 2, and further includes a square tube structure 327. The square tube structure 327 is arranged along the inner circumferential side wall of the vegetable guide rack 32. The electromagnet 324 is installed on the square tube structure 327. The square tube structure 327 communicates with the hollow rotating shaft 328, and the square tube structure 327 and the hollow rotating shaft 328 are adapted for the wires of the electromagnet 324 to pass through.

[0095] As Figure 21 shown, the baffle 341 includes a first folded edge structure 345 and a second folded edge structure 346 that are perpendicular to each other. One end face of the square tube structure 327 is connected to the inner wall of the vegetable guide rack 32. The square tube structure 327 is provided with a mounting position, and the electromagnet 324 is detachably connected to the side wall of the square tube structure 327 away from the vegetable guide rack 32. When the baffle 341 rotates to the position of closing the ingredient box 331, the first folded edge structure 345 fits with one end face of the square tube structure 327 away from the inner wall of the vegetable guide rack 32, and is adapted to be fixed or released by the electromagnet 324. At the same time, the second folded edge structure 346 fits with the square tube structure 327 to form a limit. The wires of different electromagnets 324 are respectively routed through the inside of the square tube structure 327. Since the hollow rotating shaft 328 communicates with the square tube structure 327, the wires exit from the hollow rotating shaft 328 and are connected to the outside of the stir-frying chamber 2. It should be noted that rotating shafts are respectively arranged at opposite ends of the vegetable guide rack 32, and the vegetable guide rack 32 is rotatably connected to the side wall of the stir-frying chamber 2 through the rotating shafts. The rotating shaft at one end of the vegetable guide rack 32 is a hollow rotating shaft, and the rotating shaft at the other end is key-connected to the first driving mechanism 31.

[0096] As Figure 1 and Figure 2 shown, the square tube structure 327 generally refers to a tubular structure with a rectangular cross-section. The square tube structure 327 has a flat outer surface, which is convenient for fitting with the first folded edge structure 345 of the baffle 341. The square tube structure 327 can be made of materials such as plastic and alloy. The square tube structure 327 and the inner wall of the vegetable guide rack 32 can be connected by welding, riveting, bolt connection, integral molding or other forms of connection. The electromagnet can also be connected inside the square tube structure 327 by welding, riveting, bolt connection, integral molding or other forms of connection. The bottom surface of the side of the square tube structure 327 away from the ingredient box 331 and the bottom surface of the side of the annular structure at the top of the vegetable guide rack 32 away from the ingredient box 331 can be on the same plane or in a stepped shape.

[0097] In this embodiment, the square tube structure 327 is made of a metal square tube, which has high strength and good magnetic attraction performance. One end face of the metal square tube is connected to the inner wall of the vegetable guiding rack 32 by bolts, and the bottom surface of the side of the metal square tube away from the material box 331 and the bottom surface of the side of the annular structure at the top of the vegetable guiding rack 32 away from the material box 331 are on the same plane. The electromagnet is fixed inside the metal square tube by threaded connection and abuts against one end face of the metal square tube away from the inner wall of the vegetable guiding rack 32. All kinds of connecting wires of the electromagnet are arranged inside the metal square tube and fixed by components such as plastic wire clips. When the baffle 341 rotates to the position of closing the material box 331, the first folded edge structure 345 fits against one end face of the metal square tube away from the inner wall of the vegetable guiding rack 32. By energizing or de-energizing the electromagnet, the baffle 341 can be fixed or released.

[0098] As Figures 4 - 6 shown, the cooking machine further includes a flip cover 43. The seasoning bin 6 has a top-open structure. The seasoning bin 6 includes a plurality of compartments 65, which are suitable for accommodating the seasoning box 64 or tools. The compartments surround the cooking bin 2, and the flip cover 43 covers the opening of the seasoning bin 6.

[0099] It should be noted that the seasoning bin 6 is arranged on the top of the cooking bin 2. By dividing the seasoning bin 6 into a plurality of compartments 65 with partitions, different liquid seasonings can be classified and placed. At the same time, tools such as cleaning spray guns can also be accommodated in the compartments 65. The size and shape of the compartments 65 are not limited and are determined according to the size and shape of the accommodated seasoning box 1 or the size and shape of the tools. Part of the compartments 65 can be used to accommodate the seasoning box 1, and part of the compartments 65 can be used to accommodate tools.

[0100] See Figure 4 and Figure 5 , optionally, it further includes a cover plate 44. A cleaning port 63 is opened on the seasoning bin 6. The cleaning port 63 communicates with the cooking bin 2. The cover plate 44 is detachably connected to the cleaning port 63. The cleaning port 63 is suitable for the passage of a high-pressure water gun, and the cover plate 44 is suitable for opening and closing the cleaning port 63.

[0101] Here, by providing a cleaning port 63 at the top of the cooking bin 2, the space below the cooking bin 2 can be cleaned through the cleaning port 63. Here, the cleaning spray gun can be placed in part of the compartments 65.

[0102] See Figure 2 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 , optionally, the cleaning port 63 is arranged at the center of the seasoning bin 6, and the compartments 65 surround the cleaning port 63.

[0103] Here, by arranging the compartment 65 around the cleaning port 63, it can be understood that not only the inner wall of the cooking chamber 2 can serve as the side wall of the compartment 65, but also the outer wall of the cleaning port 63 can serve as the side wall of the compartment 65. Therefore, the use of partitions can be greatly reduced. At the same time, the structural strength of the top of the cooking chamber 2 can be further enhanced. At the same time, the influence of the hot air in the cooking chamber on the seasoning box 64 can also be avoided.

[0104] Although the present disclosure is disclosed as above, the scope of protection of the present disclosure is not limited thereto. Those skilled in the art can make various changes and modifications without departing from the spirit and scope of the present disclosure, and these changes and modifications will all fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
