[0045] In order to better understand the purpose, technical solution and technical effect of the present invention, the present invention is further explained below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. At the same time, it is stated that the embodiments described below are only used to explain the present invention and are not used to limit the present invention.

[0046] It should be noted that when an element is referred to as being "fixed to" or "disposed on" another element, it may be directly on the other element or there may be an intermediate element. When an element is considered to be "connected to" another element, it may be directly connected to the other element or there may be an intermediate element at the same time.

[0047] The directions or positions indicated by terms such as “up”, “down”, “left”, “right”, “front”, “back”, “vertical”, “horizontal”, “top”, “bottom”, “inside” and “outside” are based on the directions or positions shown in the accompanying drawings and are only for the convenience of description and are not to be construed as limitations on the present technical solution.

[0048] The terms "first" and "second" are only used for descriptive purposes and should not be understood as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly indicating the number of technical features. "Multiple" means two or more, unless otherwise clearly and specifically defined.

[0049] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 6 As shown, a multi-layer, non-flavor-cross-contamination multifunctional fast steamer comprises a steamer body 1 and a plurality of steaming plates 2, a steaming cover 3 and a water tank 4 located on the steamer body 1. The steamer body 1 comprises a steaming trough for placing the steaming plates 2 and a water tank seat for placing the water tank 4. The steamer body 1 is provided with a steam outlet 12 and a trigger switch 11.

[0050] like Figure 7 As shown, in the present invention, the sum of the spatial areas of the cooking tank and the water tank seat is approximately equal to the spatial area of ​​the steamer body 1, and only a gap is left between the cooking tank and the water tank seat. The steam outlet 12 and the trigger switch 11 are located in the gap, so that the multifunctional fast steamer has a compact structure. The reasonable structural design maximizes the space of the cooking tank, so that the size of the steaming plate is the same as the size of A4 paper. The steaming plate has a large space, which can meet the needs of cooking more ingredients in one steaming plate and solve the food intake of multiple people; at the same time, it also meets the large-capacity design of the water tank, which has a capacity of 2 liters, so that the fast steamer can be filled with water once and used for a long time.

[0051] like Figure 3As shown, in the present invention, the bottom of the steaming plate 2 is sealed, which is different from the steaming plate of the traditional steamer, which has no air holes at the bottom. The air holes of the present invention are arranged on the side wall of the steaming plate 2, and the outer side wall of the steaming plate 2 is provided with a steam channel unit 22. When multiple steaming plates 2 are stacked on the steamer body 1, multiple steam channel units 22 are successively connected to form a steam channel, and dock with the steam outlet 12. The steam flows from bottom to top in the steam channel and then enters each steaming plate. It can be seen that the flow direction of the steam is single and fixed, and the sealed design of the bottom of the steaming plate effectively prevents the upper and lower steaming plates from odor contamination.

[0052] In an optional embodiment, the bottom of the steaming plate 2 is recessed upward and a frame baffle is provided around the bottom. When two steaming plates 2 are stacked, the opening of the lower steaming plate covers the frame baffle of the upper steaming plate, so that the interior of each stacked layer of steaming plates is in a closed state, which greatly improves the effect of preventing odor contamination.

[0053] like Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the inner wall of the steam channel unit 22 is provided with an air inlet 221 connected to the inside of the steaming plate 2, so that the steam is concentratedly ejected from this place, the heat is more concentrated, and the speed of raising the temperature inside the steaming plate is further accelerated, and fast steaming is truly achieved. In a preferred embodiment, the air inlet 221 is located in the middle and upper position of the side wall of the steaming plate 2, so that the heat of the entire steaming plate 2 is balanced, and combined with the large capacity inside the steaming plate, it is convenient for users to place food.

[0054] like Figure 3 and Figure 8 As shown, in the present invention, a steam generator 5 is provided in the steamer body 1, an air outlet valve 50 of the steam generator 5 extends from the steam outlet 12, an elastic air hole push rod 51 is provided in the air outlet valve 50, and a protrusion 222 is provided at the bottom of the steam channel unit 22, the protrusion 222 can be inserted into the air outlet valve 50 and push the elastic air hole push rod 51, so that steam is ejected from the air outlet valve 50 and enters the steam channel.

[0055] A sealing ring 511 is provided at the bottom of the elastic air hole push rod 51. Before the steaming plate 2 is put in place, the elastic air hole push rod 51 in the air outlet valve 50 cooperates with the sealing ring 511 to block the valve opening, and steam cannot be ejected from the steam generator 5. Therefore, only when the steam channel is connected to the steam outlet can the steam be ejected smoothly and ejected along the steam channel. It can be seen that the product safety factor is extremely high.

[0056] The protrusion 222 of the steam channel unit 22 matches the opening at the top of the steam channel unit 22, that is, when the upper and lower steaming plates 2 are stacked, the protrusion 222 of the upper steaming plate 2 can be inserted into the opening of the steam channel unit 22 of the lower steaming plate 2, and the side walls of the upper and lower steam channel units are connected without leaving a gap, thereby avoiding steam leakage and wasting hot steam.

[0057] The bottom surface of the steam channel unit is hollowed out and provided with a cross-shaped bracket, so that the bottom surface forms four fan-shaped through holes, and the protrusion is arranged at the center of the cross-shaped bracket. The cross-shaped bracket is not only used to fix the protrusion, but also the reasonable structural design maximizes the through hole area of ​​the bottom surface of the steam channel unit.

[0058] In a preferred embodiment, a thermostat 52 is provided at the bottom of the steam generator 5, and the thermostat is electrically connected to the control unit of the multifunctional fast steamer. Through the thermostat, the multifunctional fast steamer can monitor and feedback the steam temperature, so as to obtain the required steam temperature by adjusting the power of the steam generator.

[0059] like Figure 3 and Figure 6 As shown, the outer wall of the steaming plate 2 is also provided with a trigger rod unit 21. When multiple steaming plates 2 are stacked on the steamer body 1, multiple trigger rod units 21 are successively connected to form a trigger rod, and the trigger rod is connected to the trigger switch 11. The trigger switch 11 is electrically connected to the working main board of the multifunctional fast steamer. Only when the user places the steaming plate 2 on the steamer body 1 can the trigger switch 11 of the fast steamer be triggered to make it operate, thereby improving the safety performance of the product.

[0060] like Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, the trigger rod unit 21 includes an elastic rod core 211 arranged in a rod core through hole. When multiple trigger rod units 21 are connected in succession, the rod tail of the upper elastic rod core 211 is connected to the rod head of the next elastic rod core 211, thereby realizing the elastic rod core linkage of the layers of steaming plates.

[0061] In an optional embodiment, a protruding baffle is provided at the bottom of the elastic rod core 211, and the rod body of the elastic rod core 211 is sleeved with a first spring 212. The trigger rod unit 21 also includes a rod core through hole, and a card plate is provided in the rod core through hole, which divides the rod core through hole into an upper through hole portion and a lower through hole portion. The first spring 212 is located in the upper through hole portion, and one end of the first spring 212 abuts against the card plate, and the other end abuts against the head end of the elastic rod core 211. The baffle is located in the lower through hole portion, abutting against the card plate to prevent the elastic rod core from detaching from the rod core through hole under the action of the first spring.

[0062] When the rod head of the elastic rod core 211 is squeezed, the first spring 212 is further squeezed, and the rod tail of the elastic rod core 211 extends out from the bottom of the rod channel. After the external force squeezing the first spring disappears, the rod tail of the elastic rod core retracts into the rod core through hole under the action of elastic force recovery.

[0063] like Fig. 9As shown, the trigger switch 11 of the steamer body 1 includes an elastic rod 111 and a micro switch 112. The rod head of the elastic rod 111 contacts the elastic rod core 211 of the trigger rod unit 21 of the steaming tray 2 at the bottom layer, and the rod tail of the elastic rod 111 contacts the contact of the micro switch 112. The micro switch 112 is electrically connected to the working main board. When the rod tail of the elastic rod core 211 of the steaming tray 2 at the bottom layer extends, the elastic rod 111 of the trigger switch 11 is pushed, the contact of the micro switch 112 is triggered, and a start signal is sent to the working main board.

[0064] In the present invention, the outer wall of the steaming cover 3 is provided with a top foot 31 protruding downward. When the steaming cover 3 is covered on the steaming plate 2, the top foot 31 pushes the elastic rod core 211 of the steaming plate 2 downward. Since the elastic rod cores of the layers of steaming plates are linked, the elastic rod cores of the next layer are pushed in turn, and the rod tail of the elastic rod core of the bottom layer pushes the elastic plug rod of the trigger switch, thereby starting the multifunctional fast steamer and the steam generator starts to work. Therefore, the multifunctional fast steamer of the present invention can only start the trigger switch when the steaming cover is closed, so that the steam generator starts to generate steam; and when the user removes the steaming cover during the steaming process, the elastic rod core of the trigger rod rebounds, the trigger switch is not started, and the steam generator immediately stops generating steam, thereby preventing the user from being burned by the sprayed steam, and further improving the safety performance of the product.

[0065] In the present invention, the outer arm of the steaming cover 3 is provided with a channel sealing groove 32, and the groove is downward, and the channel sealing groove 32 is aligned with the steam channel unit 22. When the steaming cover 3 is covered, the channel sealing groove 32 blocks the top opening of the steam access unit of the uppermost steaming tray 2, so that the steam channel is completely isolated from the external environment, reducing steam leakage, and indirectly improving steam efficiency.

[0066] In the present invention, a heating plate 14 is provided at the bottom of the cooking tank, a heating element is provided on the lower surface of the heating plate 14, a deep pot 15 is detachably provided in the cooking tank, and the bottom of the deep pot 15 is in contact with the heating plate 14. Through the deep pot, the instant steamer of the present invention can be boiled, further enriching the cooking function of the instant steamer.

[0067] In the present invention, a water inlet 13 is provided on one side of the water tank seat of the steamer body 1, and the water inlet 13 is connected to the steam generator 5 through a soft rubber tube and provides water for the steam generator 5. The water tank of the present invention is an independent water tank with a large capacity, which can provide water for the steam generator for a long time, so that the quick steamer can be filled with water once and used for a long time.

[0068] The water inlet is connected to the water outlet valve of the water tank. The water outlet valve of the water tank is an electrically controlled water valve, which is connected to the control module of the multifunctional fast steamer to achieve unified system regulation, thereby controlling the water output of the water tank according to the steam demand, avoiding waste while meeting the hot steam demand. A water pump is also installed in the steamer body, which connects the water tank and the steam generator to provide power for water transportation and ensure the water output efficiency of the water tank.

[0069] The technical features of the above embodiments may be combined arbitrarily. To make the description concise, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.

[0070] The above embodiments only express several implementation methods of the present invention, and the descriptions thereof are relatively specific and detailed, but they cannot be understood as limiting the scope of the invention patent. It should be pointed out that, for those of ordinary skill in the art, several variations and improvements can be made without departing from the concept of the present invention, and these all belong to the protection scope of the present invention.
