Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of cooking equipment, and in particular to a cooking component, a pot and a cooking equipment. Background Art

[0002] At present, common induction cookers are mostly provided with touch buttons or knobs for adjusting the operating state of the base, but during the cooking process, especially during frying, the user's hands generally hold the pot handle and cooking tools such as a spatula respectively. If the heating power or other functions of the induction cooker are to be adjusted during cooking, one hand is required to operate the touch buttons or knobs on the induction cooker, which is inconvenient to operate and affects the control of the pot or cooking tools. The prior art provides a solution of providing a control device on the handle of the pot to control the heating power of the induction cooker, but this solution requires a wireless signal transceiver to be provided in the handle of the pot and the induction cooker, which is complex in structure and will lead to an increase in manufacturing costs. Summary of the invention

[0003] The present invention aims to improve at least one of the technical problems existing in the prior art or related art.

[0004] To this end, an object of the present invention is to provide a cooking assembly.

[0005] Another object of the present invention is to provide a cookware.

[0006] Another object of the present invention is to provide a cooking device.

[0007] In order to achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the first technical solution of the present invention provides a cooking component, including: a cooker; a base, which is arranged corresponding to the cooker and can heat the cooker; and an induction element, which is electrically connected to the base, wherein the induction element can sense changes in parameters of the cooker and generate a feedback signal to adjust the operating state of the base.

[0008] According to the first technical solution of the present invention, the cooking component includes a pot, a base and an induction member. The pot is used to hold food, and the heat is transferred to the food through the pot to achieve heating of the food. The base is provided corresponding to the pot body, and the pot body is heated by the base, and then the heat is transferred to the food through the pot body. Among them, the pot can be connected to an external electrical conductor (such as human skin), and parameter changes occur when it is in a conductive state. The induction member can sense the parameter changes of the pot. Specifically, the induction member is electrically connected to the base. When the user contacts the pot (including direct contact and indirect contact), the pot is connected to the human skin, and parameter changes occur, such as capacitance changes or resistance changes. The base can obtain the parameter changes of the pot through the feedback signal of the induction member, and adjust the operating state according to the feedback signal of the induction member. The cooking component in this solution can adjust the operating state of the base by touching the pot, which is easy to operate and does not require the user to manually operate the base, thereby avoiding affecting the user's control over the pot and cooking tools. In addition, the cooking component in the present solution does not need to be provided with a complex wireless transceiver, and the structure is relatively simple, which is conducive to controlling manufacturing costs. Among them, the parameters include but are not limited to capacitance parameters and resistance parameters. It can be understood that when the user is performing cooking operations, he usually operates the handle of the pot with one hand and the cooking tools (such as a spatula, a soup spoon, etc.) with the other hand. When using the existing induction cooker equipment, if the user needs to adjust the operating status of the base, he must suspend the operation of the pot or cooking tools with one hand to manually operate the touch buttons or knobs on the induction cooker, which affects the normal cooking process. The cooking component in the present solution can adjust the operating status of the base at the same time during the cooking operation, which is more convenient to operate.

[0009] It should be noted that the operating status of the base includes but is not limited to heating power, operating time, and may also be other operating functions.

[0010] In addition, the cooking assembly in the above technical solution provided by the present invention may also have the following additional technical features:

[0011] In the above technical solution, the cookware specifically includes: a pot body; a handle connected to the outer wall of the pot body, and an insulating sleeve is provided on the outer surface of the handle; a touch piece connected to the pot body, and the touch piece can cause parameter changes in the pot body.

[0012] In this technical solution, the pot specifically includes a pot body, a handle and a touch piece. The pot body is used to hold food and conduct heat to the food to achieve heating of the food. The handle is connected to the outer wall of the pot body so that the user can move the pot body by holding the handle. The outer surface of the handle is provided with an insulating sleeve so that the hand of the user holding the handle is insulated from the pot body, so as to prevent the parameter change caused by the conduction between the pot body and the hand when the user holds the handle normally, resulting in misoperation of the base. By providing a touch piece connected to the pot body, and the touch piece can make the external electrical conductor (such as human skin) conduct with the pot body by contacting the touch piece, so that the parameters of the pot body itself change, the induction piece generates a corresponding feedback signal according to the parameter change, so that the base can adjust the operating state according to the feedback signal, so that the user can perform cooking operations. This solution adjusts the operating state of the base through the touch piece, so that the user does not need to release the handle during the cooking operation, but only needs to touch the touch piece with a finger, which does not affect the user's operation of the pot body, and is simple and convenient. At the same time, by setting up a touch piece, users do not need to directly contact the pot body, which can effectively prevent scalding and is safer.

[0013] In the above technical solution, the touch member is arranged on the handle, and one end of the touch member extends toward the pot body and is connected to the side wall of the pot body.

[0014] In this technical solution, the touch piece is arranged on the handle, which can reduce the distance between the touch piece and the user's hand holding the handle during the cooking operation. The user can touch the touch piece without releasing the handle, which is convenient for operation. By setting one end of the touch piece to extend in the direction close to the pot body and connect with the side wall of the pot body, the touch piece is connected to the pot body, so that when the user touches the touch piece, the pot body and the user's hand are connected, and the parameter changes, so that the sensor can sense the parameter change and generate a feedback signal. Among them, the touch piece can be connected to the outer wall of the pot body, or it can extend into the pot body and connect with the inner wall of the pot body.

[0015] In the above technical solution, the touch member is arranged on the pot body.

[0016] In this technical solution, by arranging the touch piece on the pot body, the touch piece can be separated from the handle, so that there is no need to perform shaping processing on the insulating sleeve of the handle, which is conducive to simplifying the processing process. The touch piece is arranged on the pot body near the handle to reduce the distance between the touch piece and the user's hand holding the handle when the user performs cooking operations, so that the user can touch the touch piece without releasing the handle to adjust the operating state of the base.

[0017] In the above technical solution, the pot body is an electrical conductor; or a conductive layer is provided on the surface of the pot body.

[0018] In this technical solution, the pot body is set as an electrical conductor or a conductive layer is provided on the surface of the pot body, so that when the user touches the surface of the pot body or touches the touch piece, the surface of the pot body can be connected to the surface of the pot body, causing the pot body to produce parameter changes.

For example, the gear of the heating power includes four gears, namely, 0 gear, 1 gear, 2 gear, and 3 gear, which correspond to 0W, 400W, 800W, and 1200W, respectively. 0 gear is the standby state, and the user can select the corresponding gear according to the cooking needs, which is conducive to improving the accuracy of the gear adjustment. Among them, the switching order of the gears can be from low to high, or from high to low. When the feedback signal is continuously received, the gear is continuously switched in a cycle.
