Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of kitchen appliances, and in particular to a cooking utensil. Background Art

[0002] During the operation of the cooking appliance, the electrical components need to be cooled. In the related art, a dedicated cooling fan or even a separate air duct needs to be configured for the electrical components, which results in a complex structure, high cost and heavy weight of the cooking appliance. Summary of the invention

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

[0004] To this end, the present invention provides a cooking utensil.

[0005] The present invention provides a cooking appliance, comprising: a main body structure, the main body structure including an air suction channel; a range hood structure, arranged on the main body structure, the range hood structure including a smoke exhaust channel and a fan assembly, the fan assembly is located in the smoke exhaust channel, and the air suction channel is connected to the smoke exhaust channel; an electrical component, arranged on the air suction side of the fan assembly, and the electrical component is connected to the external environment through the air suction channel.

[0006] The cooking appliance proposed by the present invention comprises a main unit structure, a range hood structure and an electrical component. The main unit structure comprises an air suction channel, and the air suction port of the air suction channel is connected to the external environment. The range hood structure is arranged on the main unit structure, and the range hood structure comprises a smoke exhaust channel and a fan component for use together; during the operation of the cooking appliance, the fan component can exhaust the smoke in the main unit structure through the smoke exhaust channel.

[0007] Furthermore, the electrical component is located on the air suction side of the fan component; the air suction channel is connected to the smoke exhaust channel, and the electrical component is connected to the external environment through the air suction channel. During the operation of the fan component, cold air from the external environment can be sucked into the air suction channel, and then this part of the cold air enters the smoke exhaust channel after passing through the electrical component, and is discharged together with the smoke in the smoke exhaust channel. In this way, while exhausting the smoke inside the cooking appliance, the fan component can dissipate heat for the electrical component.

[0008] In particular, in the cooking appliance proposed by the present invention, the electrical component is arranged on the air suction side of the fan component, and the air suction channel is connected to the external environment and the smoke exhaust channel. In this way, during the operation of the fan component, the fan component can not only exhaust the smoke inside the cooking appliance through the smoke exhaust channel, but also absorb the cold air in the external environment into the air suction channel through the air suction channel, so that the cold air passes through the electrical component and is discharged together with the smoke, thereby achieving heat dissipation of the electrical component.

[0009] The cooking appliance proposed by the present invention realizes the multifunctional use of the fan assembly, which can be used to exhaust smoke and dissipate heat for the electrical components. The electrical components no longer need to be equipped with a separate fan assembly for heat dissipation. Compared with the related art, at least one fan assembly can be reduced, and the motor-related control modules can be reduced. In this way, on the one hand, the overall structure of the cooking appliance can be simplified, especially it is conducive to realizing the small volume and large volume design of the cooking appliance and reducing the weight of the cooking appliance. On the other hand, it can simplify the processing procedures and reduce the cost of the cooking appliance.

[0010] Moreover, after the cold air from the external environment exchanges heat with the electrical components, the airflow after heat exchange will enter the smoke exhaust channel and be discharged together with the smoke in the smoke exhaust channel. In this way, the smoke exhaust channel can also be used as a heat dissipation duct, thereby making full use of the smoke exhaust channel to simplify the overall structure of the cooking appliance, facilitate processing and manufacturing, and also reduce the cost of the cooking appliance.

[0011] Specifically, the electrical component can be arranged inside the air suction channel, or at the outlet of the air suction channel, which is not limited here, as long as the airflow in the air suction channel can contact the electrical component.

[0012] In any of the above technical solutions, the electrical components include: an electrical control box, which is arranged on the range hood structure, the electrical control box includes a first connecting port and a second connecting port, the first connecting port faces the air suction channel, and the second connecting port faces the fan assembly; an electrical device, which is arranged in the electrical control box.

[0013] In this technical solution, the electrical component includes an electrical control box and electrical components. The electrical control box is arranged on the range hood structure and is located on the air suction side of the fan assembly; the electrical control box is provided with a first connecting port and a second connecting port. The first connecting port of the electrical control box is arranged toward the air suction channel so that the airflow in the air suction channel can enter the interior of the electrical control box through the first connecting port; the second connecting port of the electrical control box is arranged toward the fan assembly so that the airflow in the electrical control box can flow to the fan assembly through the second connecting port.

[0014] In addition, the electrical components are arranged in the electrical control box. On the one hand, the electrical control box provides certain protection for the electrical components. On the other hand, the airflow passing through the electrical control box is in contact with the electrical components for heat exchange, thereby cooling the electrical components.

[0015] In particular, during the use of cooking appliances, the operation of electrical components will generate a certain amount of heat, and the electrical components need to dissipate heat. Therefore, the present invention can inhale cold air from the external environment into the air suction channel, and allow this part of the cold air to flow through the electrical components, thereby dissipating heat for the electrical components, reducing the temperature of the electrical components and reducing the risk of damage to the electrical components due to high temperature.

[0016] Furthermore, the cooking appliance provided by the present invention is provided with an air suction channel, and the air suction channel can introduce cold air from the external environment, so that the cold air from the external environment enters the electric control box and exchanges heat with the electric components. In particular, the heat inside the cooking appliance is blocked by the electric control box and will not enter the electric control box, while the cold air from the external environment is relatively clean, thereby ensuring the cleanliness of the electric components on the basis of meeting the heat dissipation requirements of the electric components, and reducing the risk of damage or failure of the electric control box.

[0017] In any of the above technical solutions, the electrical component also includes: a magnetic control component, which is arranged in the air suction channel and located between the air suction port of the air suction channel and the electrical component.

[0018] In this technical solution, the electrical component also includes a magnetic control. The magnetic control is arranged in the air suction channel and can be used for electromagnetic heating of the cooking appliance. In particular, the magnetic control is located between the air suction port of the air suction channel and the first connecting port of the electric control box. In this way, in the cooking appliance proposed by the present invention, the fan component can not only dissipate heat for the electrical components, but also dissipate heat for the magnetic control, further realizing the multifunctional use of the fan component.

[0019] In particular, during the use of the cooking utensil, the operation of the magnetic control generates a certain amount of heat, and there is a need for heat dissipation of the magnetic control. Therefore, the present invention arranges the magnetic control between the air suction port of the air suction channel and the first connecting port of the electric control box. In this way, during the operation of the fan assembly, the cold air from the external environment enters the air suction channel and contacts the magnetic control for heat exchange, thereby reducing the temperature of the magnetic control; then, the airflow after heat exchange passes through the electrical device to dissipate heat for the electrical device.

[0020] It should be noted here that when the fan is running, a large amount of airflow passes through the magnetic control component, which ensures that the airflow after heat exchange with the magnetic control component can still dissipate heat with the electrical components, thereby ensuring the heat dissipation effect of the electrical components.

[0021] In any of the above technical solutions, the host structure also includes: an air guide member, which is arranged between the magnetic control unit and the first connecting port.

[0022] In this technical solution, the host structure also includes an air guide. The air guide is arranged between the magnetic control unit and the first connecting port of the electric control box, and the cold air from the external environment can be blown to the electric device through the air guide, thereby achieving heat dissipation of the electric device. In particular, by setting the air guide, the flow direction of the air flow can be ensured, thereby allowing more air flow to dissipate heat for the electric device.

[0023] Furthermore, in the air guiding direction of the air guiding member, the flow area of ​​the air guiding member gradually decreases, and the outlet area of ​​the air guiding member is larger than the inlet area of ​​the air guiding member. In this way, the flow rate of the airflow out of the air guiding member can be increased, further improving the heat dissipation effect on the electrical components.

[0024] In any of the above technical solutions, the electrical components and the fan components are located on the top of the main structure.

[0025] In this technical solution, the electrical components and the fan components are integrated on the top of the host mechanism. In this way, the positions of the electrical components and the fan components on the host structure are reasonably optimized, which is conducive to the miniaturization design of the cooking appliance. In addition, by optimizing the positions of the electrical components and the fan components, it can be ensured that the external airflow can pass through the magnetic control components and the electrical components in turn, thereby meeting the heat dissipation requirements of the magnetic control components and the electrical components.

[0026] In any of the above technical solutions, the main unit structure also includes: a cooking cavity, a smoke exhaust channel connected to the cooking cavity; a first partition, arranged at the top of the cooking cavity, the suction channel is located between the cooking cavity and the first partition, and at least a portion of the smoke exhaust channel is located at the top of the first partition.

The interior of the cooking cavity can be used to place food to be cooked; the smoke exhaust channel is connected to the internal space of the cooking cavity, and the smoke generated in the cooking cavity can be exhausted during the cooking process.

[0028] Furthermore, the first partition is arranged at the top of the cooking cavity, the air suction channel is located between the cooking cavity and the first partition, and is at the bottom of the first partition; at least a part of the smoke exhaust channel is located at the top of the first partition. In this way, the air suction channel and the smoke exhaust channel are separated by the first partition, so that the smoke in the smoke exhaust channel is prevented from entering the air suction channel, thereby preventing the smoke in the smoke exhaust channel from contaminating the magnetic control unit and the electrical components of the electrical components.

[0029] Furthermore, the first partition itself can have a heat insulating effect, thereby reducing the heat loss inside the cooking cavity. In addition, the air suction channel is directly formed through the space between the first partition and the top of the cooking cavity, which can simplify the structure of the air suction channel and the entire cooking utensil, thereby facilitating the processing and manufacturing of the cooking utensil.

[0030] In any of the above technical solutions, at least a portion of the first partition is bent, a third connecting port is provided at the bent portion of the first partition, and the air suction channel and the electrical component are located on both sides of the third connecting port.

[0031] In this technical solution, at least a portion of the first partition is bent. In this way, when the first partition is set on the top of the cooking cavity, it can ensure that an air suction channel is formed between a portion of the first partition and the top of the cooking cavity. Furthermore, a third connecting port is provided at the bent portion of the first partition, and the air suction channel and the electrical component are located on both sides of the third connecting port, so as to ensure that the air in the air suction channel can flow to the electrical component through the third connecting port to dissipate heat from the electrical component.

[0032] In any of the above technical solutions, the main unit structure further includes: a second partition plate, arranged at the bottom of the cooking cavity; a third partition plate, arranged at the first side of the cooking cavity; and a fourth partition plate, arranged at the second side of the cooking cavity.

The second partition is arranged at the bottom of the cooking cavity, the third partition is arranged at the first side of the cooking cavity, and the fourth partition is arranged at the second side of the cooking cavity, and the first side is opposite to the second side. In this way, the second partition, the third partition and the third partition cooperate with the first partition to further improve the heat insulation effect of the cooking cavity.

[0034] Specifically, the first partition is a top insulation board, the second partition is a bottom insulation board, the third partition is a left insulation board, and the fourth partition is a right insulation board.

The mounting cavity is hollow inside, and the main unit structure can be mounted in the mounting cavity; the smoke exhaust channel and the fan assembly are both arranged on the mounting cavity and located at the top of the mounting cavity. In addition, the grille structure is arranged on the mounting cavity, and the smoke exhaust channel and the air suction channel are connected to the external environment through the grille structure, so that the cold air from the external environment enters the air suction channel through the grille structure, and the airflow in the smoke exhaust channel is discharged through the grille.

[0037] Specifically, after the cooking appliance is assembled, the fan assembly is located at the rear side of the cooking appliance, and the grill structure is located at the front side of the cooking appliance.

[0038] In any of the above technical solutions, the grille structure includes a smoke exhaust area and an air suction area; the smoke exhaust channel is connected to the external environment through the smoke exhaust area, and the air suction channel is connected to the external environment through the air suction area.

The smoke exhaust area is located on the exhaust side of the fan assembly, and the smoke exhaust channel is connected to the external environment through the smoke exhaust area; the suction area is located on the suction side of the fan assembly, and the suction channel is connected to the external environment through the suction area. In this way, during the operation of the fan assembly, cold air from the external environment enters the suction channel from the suction area of ​​the grille structure, and the air in the smoke exhaust channel is discharged from the smoke exhaust area of ​​the grille structure, thereby achieving orderly air intake and orderly smoke exhaust of the cooking appliance.

[0041] In this technical solution, a mounting recess is provided on the top of the mounting cavity, and the electric control box and the fan assembly are arranged in the mounting recess. In this way, after the cooking appliance is assembled, it is ensured that the height of the air suction channel matches the height of the electric control box, and in particular, it is ensured that the first connecting port of the electric control box can be connected to the air suction channel, so that air can enter from the bottom of the first partition and smoke can be exhausted from the top of the first partition.

[0042] Furthermore, the side wall of the installation recess is provided with a fourth communication port, and the fourth communication port is opposite to the position of the air suction channel. In this way, it is possible to ensure that the airflow in the air suction channel passes through the side wall of the installation recess through the fourth communication port, so that part of the airflow enters the electric control box.

[0043] Specifically, the third communication port on the first partition, the fourth communication port on the side wall of the installation recess, and the first communication port on the electric control box are positioned relative to each other, thereby ensuring that the airflow in the air suction channel enters the electric control box after passing through the third communication port, the fourth communication port, and the first communication port. The second communication port of the electric control box is arranged toward the fan assembly, so as to ensure that the airflow in the electric control box flows to the fan assembly through the second communication port.

[0045] In this technical solution, the smoke exhaust channel is located at the bottom, two opposite sides and the top of the installation cavity. Specifically, the bottom and two opposite sides of the smoke exhaust channel are provided with interlayers, and a part of the smoke exhaust channel is formed by the interlayer; in addition, a part of the smoke exhaust channel is located at the top of the installation cavity. During the operation of the fan assembly, the smoke generated inside the cooking cavity enters the smoke exhaust channel at the bottom of the installation cavity, and enters the top of the installation cavity through the smoke exhaust channels on the left and right sides of the installation cavity, and then flows to the location of the fan assembly; then, the smoke changes its flow direction under the drive of the fan assembly and flows out from the smoke exhaust channel.

[0046] In particular, there is a certain distance between the fan assembly and the electric control box, so that the smoke in the smoke exhaust channel can be sucked into the fan assembly.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0075] In order to more clearly understand the above-mentioned purpose, features and advantages of the present invention, the present invention is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. It should be noted that the embodiments of the present application and the features in the embodiments can be combined with each other without conflict.

[0076] In the following description, many specific details are set forth to facilitate a full understanding of the present invention. However, the present invention may also be implemented in other ways different from those described herein. Therefore, the protection scope of the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.

[0077] Refer to the following Figures 1 to 15 The cooking appliance 100 provided according to some embodiments of the present invention is described. Figure 2 and Figure 3 The dashed arrow in the middle indicates the flow path of the cold air from the external environment. Figure 4 The dashed arrow in the middle indicates the direction of smoke flow.

[0078] like Figure 1 , Figure 6 , Fig.10 and Fig.11 As shown, the first embodiment of the present invention provides a cooking appliance 100 , including: a main unit structure 102 , a range hood structure 106 and an electrical component 112 .

[0079] Among them, Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the main structure 102 includes an air suction channel 104, and the air suction port of the air suction channel 104 is connected to the external environment. The smoke machine structure 106 is arranged on the main structure 102, and the smoke machine structure 106 includes a smoke exhaust channel 108 and a fan assembly 110 used in conjunction with each other; Figure 4 As shown, during the operation of the cooking appliance 100 , the fan assembly 110 can exhaust the smoke in the main structure 102 through the smoke exhaust channel 108 .

[0080] Furthermore, the electrical component 112 is located on the air suction side of the fan component 110; the air suction channel 104 is connected to the smoke exhaust channel 108, and the electrical component 112 is connected to the external environment through the air suction channel 104. Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, during the operation of the fan assembly 110, cold air from the external environment can be sucked into the air suction channel 104, and then this part of the cold air enters the smoke exhaust channel 108 after passing through the electrical component 112, and is discharged together with the smoke in the smoke exhaust channel 108. In this way, while exhausting the smoke inside the cooking appliance 100, the fan assembly 110 can dissipate heat for the electrical component 112.

[0081] In particular, in the cooking utensil 100 proposed by the present invention, the electrical component 112 is arranged on the air suction side of the fan component 110, and the air suction channel 104 is connected to the external environment and the smoke exhaust channel 108. In this way, during the operation of the fan component 110, the fan component 110 can not only exhaust the smoke inside the cooking utensil 100 through the smoke exhaust channel 108, but also can inhale the cold air in the external environment into the air suction channel 104 through the air suction channel 104, so that the cold air passes through the electrical component 112 and is discharged together with the smoke, thereby achieving heat dissipation of the electrical component 112.

[0082] The cooking appliance 100 proposed by the present invention realizes the multifunctional use of the fan assembly 110, which can be used to exhaust smoke and dissipate heat for the electrical assembly 112. The electrical assembly 112 no longer needs to be equipped with a separate fan assembly for heat dissipation, and compared with the related art, at least one fan assembly can be reduced, and the control modules related to the motor can be reduced.

[0083] In this way, on the one hand, the overall structure of the cooking utensil 100 can be simplified, especially it is conducive to realizing the small volume and large capacity design of the cooking utensil 100 and reducing the weight of the cooking utensil 100. On the other hand, it can simplify the processing process and reduce the cost of the cooking utensil 100.

[0084] Furthermore, after the cold air from the external environment exchanges heat with the electrical components 112, the airflow after heat exchange will enter the smoke exhaust passage 108 and be exhausted together with the smoke in the smoke exhaust passage 108. In this way, the smoke exhaust passage 108 can also be used as a heat dissipation duct, thereby making full use of the smoke exhaust passage 108 to simplify the overall structure of the cooking appliance 100, facilitate processing and manufacturing, and also facilitate reducing the cost of the cooking appliance 100.

[0085] Specifically, the electrical component 112 can be arranged inside the air suction channel 104 or at the outlet of the air suction channel 104 , which is not limited here. As long as the airflow in the air suction channel 104 can contact the electrical component 112 , it can be done.

[0086] The second embodiment of the present invention provides a cooking device 100, which is based on the first embodiment and further comprises:

[0087] like Figure 7 , Fig.14 and Fig.15 The electrical component 112 shown includes an electrical control box 114 and an electrical device 120. The electrical control box 114 is arranged on the hood structure 106 and is located on the air suction side of the fan component 110, and a first communication port 116 and a second communication port 118 are arranged on the electrical control box 114. The first communication port 116 of the electrical control box 114 is arranged toward the air suction channel 104, so that the airflow in the air suction channel 104 can enter the interior of the electrical control box 114 through the first communication port 116; the second communication port 118 of the electrical control box 114 is arranged toward the fan component 110, so that the airflow in the electrical control box 114 can flow to the fan component 110 through the second communication port 118.

[0088] In addition, the electrical device 120 is disposed in the electrical control box 114 . On the one hand, the electrical device 120 is protected by the electrical control box 114 . On the other hand, the airflow passing through the electrical control box 114 is in contact with the electrical device 120 for heat exchange, thereby cooling the electrical device 120 .

[0089] In particular, during the use of the cooking device 100, the operation of the electrical device 120 generates a certain amount of heat, and the electrical device 120 needs to dissipate heat. Therefore, the present invention can inhale cold air from the external environment into the air suction channel 104, and allow this part of the cold air to flow through the electrical device 120, thereby dissipating heat for the electrical device 120, thereby reducing the temperature of the electrical device 120 and reducing the risk of damage to the electrical device 120 due to high temperature.

[0090] Furthermore, the cooking appliance 100 provided by the present invention is provided with an air suction channel 104, and the air suction channel 104 can introduce cold air from the external environment, so that the cold air from the external environment enters the electric control box 114 to exchange heat with the electric device 120. In particular, the air in the cooking appliance 100 is blocked by the electric control box 114 and will not enter the electric control box 114, while the cold air from the external environment is relatively clean, thereby ensuring the cleanliness of the electric device 120 while meeting the heat dissipation requirements of the electric device 120, and reducing the risk of damage or failure of the electric control box 114.

[0091] In addition, the cooking utensil 100 proposed in this embodiment has all the beneficial effects of the cooking utensil 100 proposed in the first embodiment. On the one hand, it can simplify the overall structure of the cooking utensil 100, especially it is conducive to realizing the small volume and large capacity design of the cooking utensil 100 and reducing the weight of the cooking utensil 100. On the other hand, it can simplify the processing procedures and reduce the cost of the cooking utensil 100, which will not be discussed in detail here.

[0092] The third embodiment of the present invention provides a cooking device 100, which is based on the second embodiment and further comprises:

[0093] like Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Fig.12 As shown, the electrical component 112 further includes a magnetic control 122. The magnetic control 122 is disposed in the air suction channel 104 and can be used for electromagnetic heating of the cooking appliance 100. In particular, the magnetic control 122 is located between the air suction port of the air suction channel 104 and the first connecting port 116 of the electrical control box 114. Thus, in the cooking appliance 100 proposed by the present invention, the fan component 110 can not only dissipate heat for the electrical device 120, but also dissipate heat for the magnetic control 122, further realizing the multifunctional use of the fan component 110.

[0094] In particular, during the use of the cooking appliance 100, the operation of the magnetic control 122 will generate a certain amount of heat, and the magnetic control 122 needs to dissipate heat. Therefore, the present invention sets the magnetic control 122 between the air suction port of the air suction channel 104 and the first connecting port 116 of the electric control box 114. In this way, during the operation of the fan assembly 110, cold air from the external environment enters the air suction channel 104 and contacts and exchanges heat with the magnetic control 122, thereby reducing the temperature of the magnetic control 122; then, the airflow after heat exchange passes through the electrical device 120 to dissipate heat for the electrical device 120.

[0095] It should be noted here that when the fan is running, a large amount of airflow passes through the magnetic control unit 122 , which ensures that the airflow after heat exchange with the magnetic control unit 122 can still dissipate heat with the electrical component 120 , thereby ensuring the heat dissipation effect of the electrical component 120 .

[0096] In this embodiment, further, Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Fig.12 As shown, the host structure 102 further includes an air guide 124. The air guide 124 is disposed between the magnetic control unit 122 and the electrical component 120, and the cold air from the external environment can be blown to the first communication port 116 of the electrical control box 114 through the air guide 124, thereby achieving heat dissipation of the electrical component 120. In particular, the air guide 124 can ensure the flow direction of the airflow, thereby allowing more airflow to dissipate heat for the electrical component 112.

[0097] In addition, if Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Fig.12 As shown, in the air guiding direction of the air guiding member 124, the flow area of ​​the air guiding member 124 gradually decreases, and the outlet area of ​​the air guiding member 124 is larger than the inlet area of ​​the air guiding member 124. In this way, the flow velocity of the airflow out of the air guiding member 124 can be increased, and the heat dissipation effect on the electrical device 120 can be further improved.

[0098] In this embodiment, further, Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Fig.12 As shown, the electrical component 112 and the fan component 110 are integrated on the top of the host structure. In this way, the positions of the electrical component 112 and the fan component 110 on the host structure 102 are reasonably optimized, which is conducive to the miniaturization design of the cooking appliance 100. In addition, by optimizing the positions of the electrical component 112 and the fan component 110, it is possible to ensure that the external airflow can pass through the magnetic control 122 and the electrical component 112 in sequence, thereby meeting the heat dissipation requirements of the magnetic control 122 and the electrical components.

[0099] In addition, the cooking utensil 100 proposed in this embodiment has all the beneficial effects of the cooking utensil 100 proposed in the first embodiment. On the one hand, it can simplify the overall structure of the cooking utensil 100, especially it is conducive to realizing the small volume and large capacity design of the cooking utensil 100 and reducing the weight of the cooking utensil 100. On the other hand, it can simplify the processing procedures and reduce the cost of the cooking utensil 100, which will not be discussed in detail here.

[0100] The fourth embodiment of the present invention provides a cooking device 100, which is further based on the first embodiment, the second embodiment and the third embodiment:

[0101] like Fig.12 , Fig.13 and Fig.15 As shown, the main structure 102 further includes a cooking cavity 126 and a first partition 128. The interior of the cooking cavity 126 can be used to place food to be cooked; the smoke exhaust channel 108 is connected to the internal space of the cooking cavity 126, and the smoke generated in the cooking cavity 126 can be exhausted during the cooking process.

[0102] Furthermore, if Figure 3 , Fig.12 and Fig.13 As shown, the first partition 128 is disposed at the top of the cooking cavity 126, the air suction channel 104 is located between the cooking cavity 126 and the first partition 128, and is located at the bottom of the first partition 128; at least a portion of the smoke exhaust channel 108 is located at the top of the first partition 128. In this way, the air suction channel 104 and the smoke exhaust channel 108 are separated by the first partition 128, so that the smoke in the smoke exhaust channel 108 is prevented from entering the air suction channel 104, thereby preventing the smoke in the smoke exhaust channel 108 from contaminating the magnetic control unit 122 and the electrical components 120 of the electrical component 112.

[0103] Furthermore, the first partition 128 itself can have a heat insulating effect, thereby reducing the heat loss inside the cooking cavity 126. In addition, the air suction channel 104 is directly formed through the space between the first partition 128 and the top of the cooking cavity 126, which can simplify the structure of the air suction channel 104 and the entire cooking device 100, thereby facilitating the processing and manufacturing of the cooking device 100.

[0104] In this embodiment, further, Figure 3 , Fig.12 and Fig.13 As shown, at least a portion of the first partition 128 is bent. In this way, when the first partition 128 is set at the top of the cooking cavity 126, it can ensure that the air suction channel 104 is formed between a portion of the first partition 128 and the top of the cooking cavity 126. Further, a third connecting port 130 is provided at the bending portion of the first partition 128, and the air suction channel 104 and the electrical component 112 are located on both sides of the third connecting port 130, so as to ensure that the air in the air suction channel 104 can flow to the electrical component 112 through the third connecting port 130 to dissipate heat from the electrical component 112.

[0105] In this embodiment, further, Fig.12 and Fig.13As shown, the main structure 102 further includes a second partition 132, a third partition 134 and a fourth partition 134. The second partition 132 is arranged at the bottom of the cooking cavity 126, the third partition 134 is arranged at the first side of the cooking cavity 126, and the fourth partition 136 is arranged at the second side of the cooking cavity 126, and the first side is opposite to the second side. In this way, the second partition 132, the third partition 134 and the third partition 134 cooperate with the first partition 128 to further improve the heat insulation effect of the cooking cavity 126.

[0106] Specifically, Fig.12 and Fig.13 As shown, the first partition plate 128 is a top insulation plate, the second partition plate 132 is a bottom insulation plate, the third partition plate 134 is a left insulation plate, and the fourth partition plate 136 is a right insulation plate.

[0107] In addition, the cooking utensil 100 proposed in this embodiment has all the beneficial effects of the cooking utensil 100 proposed in the first embodiment. On the one hand, it can simplify the overall structure of the cooking utensil 100, especially it is conducive to realizing the small volume and large capacity design of the cooking utensil 100 and reducing the weight of the cooking utensil 100. On the other hand, it can simplify the processing procedures and reduce the cost of the cooking utensil 100, which will not be discussed in detail here.

[0108] The fifth embodiment of the present invention provides a cooking device 100, which is further provided based on the first embodiment, the second embodiment, the third embodiment and the fourth embodiment:

[0109] like Fig.14 and Fig.15 As shown, the smoke machine structure 106 also includes a mounting cavity 138 and a grille structure 140. The mounting cavity 138 is hollow inside, and the main structure 102 can be installed in the mounting cavity 138; the smoke exhaust channel 108 and the fan assembly 110 are both arranged on the mounting cavity 138 and located at the top of the mounting cavity 138. In addition, as shown in FIG. Fig.14 and Fig.15 As shown, the grille structure 140 is arranged on the installation cavity 138, and the smoke exhaust channel 108 and the air suction channel 104 are respectively connected to the external environment through the grille structure 140, so that the cold air from the external environment enters the air suction channel 104 through the grille structure 140, and the airflow in the smoke exhaust channel 108 is discharged through the grille.

[0110] Specifically, Fig.14 and Fig.15 As shown, after the cooking appliance 100 is assembled, the fan assembly 110 is located at the rear side of the cooking appliance 100 , and the grill structure 140 is located at the front side of the cooking appliance 100 .

[0111] In this embodiment, further, Figure 1 and Fig.14 As shown, the grille structure 140 includes a smoke exhaust area 142 and a suction area 144. The smoke exhaust area 142 is located on the exhaust side of the fan assembly 110, and the smoke exhaust passage 108 is connected to the external environment through the smoke exhaust area 142; the suction area 144 is located on the suction side of the fan assembly 110, and the suction passage 104 is connected to the external environment through the suction area 144. In this way, during the operation of the fan assembly 110, cold air from the external environment enters the suction passage 104 from the suction area 144 of the grille structure 140, and the air in the smoke exhaust passage 108 is discharged from the smoke exhaust area 142 of the grille structure 140, thereby achieving orderly air intake and orderly smoke exhaust of the cooking appliance 100.

[0112] Specifically, Fig.14 As shown, the number of the suction areas 144 matches the number of the electrical components 112. When the number of the electrical components 112 is two, the number of the suction areas 144 is also two. At this time, the smoke exhaust area 142 is located in the middle of the grille structure 140, and the two suction areas 144 are located on both sides of the smoke exhaust area 142.

[0113] In addition, the cooking utensil 100 proposed in this embodiment has all the beneficial effects of the cooking utensil 100 proposed in the first embodiment. On the one hand, it can simplify the overall structure of the cooking utensil 100, especially it is conducive to realizing the small volume and large capacity design of the cooking utensil 100 and reducing the weight of the cooking utensil 100. On the other hand, it can simplify the processing procedures and reduce the cost of the cooking utensil 100, which will not be discussed in detail here.

[0114] The sixth embodiment of the present invention provides a cooking device 100, which is based on the fifth embodiment and further comprises:

[0115] like Fig.14 and Fig.15 As shown, a mounting recess 146 is provided at the top of the mounting cavity 138, and the electric control box 114 and the fan assembly 110 are arranged in the mounting recess 146. In this way, after the cooking appliance 100 is assembled, it is ensured that the height of the air suction channel 104 matches the height of the electric control box 114, and in particular, it is ensured that the first connecting port 116 of the electric control box 114 can be connected to the air suction channel 104, so that the bottom of the first partition 128 can inlet air and the top of the first partition 128 can exhaust smoke.

[0116] Furthermore, if Figure 5 , Fig. 9 , Fig.14 and Fig.15As shown, the side wall of the mounting recess 146 is provided with a fourth communication port 148, and the fourth communication port 148 is opposite to the position of the air suction channel 104. In this way, it is possible to ensure that the airflow in the air suction channel 104 passes through the side wall of the mounting recess 146 through the fourth communication port 148, so that part of the airflow enters the electric control box 114.

[0117] Specifically, Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, the third communication port 130 on the first partition plate 128, the fourth communication port 148 on the side wall of the installation recess 146, and the first communication port 116 on the electric control box 114 are positioned relative to each other, thereby ensuring that the airflow in the air suction channel 104 passes through the third communication port 130, the fourth communication port 148 and the first communication port 116 and enters the electric control box 114. The second communication port 118 of the electric control box 114 is arranged toward the fan assembly 110 to ensure that the airflow in the electric control box 114 flows to the fan assembly 110 through the second communication port 118.

[0118] In addition, the cooking utensil 100 proposed in this embodiment has all the beneficial effects of the cooking utensil 100 proposed in the first embodiment. On the one hand, it can simplify the overall structure of the cooking utensil 100, especially it is conducive to realizing the small volume and large capacity design of the cooking utensil 100 and reducing the weight of the cooking utensil 100. On the other hand, it can simplify the processing procedures and reduce the cost of the cooking utensil 100, which will not be discussed in detail here.

[0119] The seventh embodiment of the present invention provides a cooking device 100, which is based on the fifth and sixth embodiments and further comprises:

[0120] like Fig.14 and Fig.15 As shown, the smoke exhaust channel 108 is located at the bottom, two opposite sides and the top of the installation cavity 138. Specifically, the bottom and two opposite sides of the smoke exhaust channel 108 are provided with interlayers, and a part of the smoke exhaust channel 108 is formed by the interlayers; in addition, a part of the smoke exhaust channel 108 is located at the top of the installation cavity 138. During the operation of the fan assembly 110, the smoke generated inside the cooking cavity 126 enters the smoke exhaust channel 108 at the bottom of the installation cavity 138, and enters the top of the installation cavity 138 through the smoke exhaust channels 108 on the left and right sides of the installation cavity 138, and then flows to the position where the fan assembly 110 is located; then, the smoke changes its flow direction under the drive of the fan assembly 110 and flows out from the smoke exhaust channel 108.

[0121] In particular, there is a certain distance between the fan assembly 110 and the electric control box 114 , so that the smoke in the smoke exhaust passage 108 can be sucked into the fan assembly 110 .

[0122] In this embodiment, further, Fig.14 and Fig.15 As shown, the smoke machine structure 106 also includes a top plate 150 and a bottom plate 152. The top plate 150 is covered on the fan assembly 110, and there is a certain interlayer between the top plate 150 and the top of the installation cavity 138; Fig.14 and Fig.15 As shown, the bottom plate 152 is a U-shaped structure, and the bottom plate 152 is arranged at the bottom and two opposite sides of the installation cavity 138, and there is a certain interlayer between the bottom plate 152 and the installation cavity 138. In this way, the smoke exhaust channel 108 is formed by the interlayer between the bottom plate 152 and the installation cavity 138, and the interlayer between the top plate 150 and the installation cavity 138.

[0123] In this embodiment, further, Figure 7 , Figure 8 , Fig.10 and Fig.11 As shown, the hood structure 106 further includes a baffle 154. The baffle 154 is disposed at the top of the mounting cavity 138 and is located between the mounting cavity 138 and the top plate 150. In addition, the baffle 154 is distributed along the front-rear direction of the cooking appliance 100, one end of the baffle 154 is located at the position of the grille structure 140 and is located at the junction of the air suction area 144 and the smoke exhaust area 142; the other end of the baffle 154 extends between the fan assembly 110 and the electrical assembly 112. In this way, the baffle 154 can play a role in blocking smoke in the smoke exhaust channel 108.

[0124] Specifically, Figure 3 As shown, when the fan assembly 110 is running, after the smoke enters the top of the installation cavity 138 from both sides of the installation cavity 138, the baffle 154 can effectively block the smoke, so that the smoke flows toward the fan assembly 110, and the smoke changes its flow direction at the fan assembly 110 and flows toward the smoke exhaust area 142 of the grille structure 140, and then is discharged through the smoke exhaust area 142 of the grille structure 140.

[0125] In addition, the cooking utensil 100 proposed in this embodiment has all the beneficial effects of the cooking utensil 100 proposed in the first embodiment. On the one hand, it can simplify the overall structure of the cooking utensil 100, especially it is conducive to realizing the small volume and large capacity design of the cooking utensil 100 and reducing the weight of the cooking utensil 100. On the other hand, it can simplify the processing procedures and reduce the cost of the cooking utensil 100, which will not be discussed in detail here.

[0126] The eighth embodiment of the present invention provides a cooking device 100, which is based on the fifth embodiment, the sixth embodiment and the seventh embodiment, and further comprises:

[0127] like Figure 7 , Figure 8 , Fig.10 and Fig.11 As shown, the fan assembly 110 includes an axial flow fan, and the axial sides of the axial flow fan are suction sides. In addition, the number of the electric control boxes 114 is at least two, and any of the electric control boxes 114 is provided with an electrical device 120. In addition, along the axial direction of the axial flow fan, at least two electrical components 112 are distributed on both sides of the axial flow fan. In this way, during the operation of the fan assembly 110, the airflow can pass through the electric control boxes 114 located on both sides of the axial flow fan, thereby dissipating heat for more electrical devices 120.

[0128] Specifically, Figure 7 , Figure 8 , Fig.10 and Fig.11 As shown, taking two electrical components 112 as an example, along the axial direction of the axial flow fan, the two electrical components 112 are distributed on both sides of the axial flow fan.

[0129] In addition, if Fig.14 As shown, the grille structure 140 has two air suction areas 144 and one smoke exhaust area 142 . The two air suction areas 144 are respectively opposite to the positions of the two electrical components 112 , and the smoke exhaust area 142 is opposite to the position of the axial flow fan.

[0130] In addition, if Figure 7 , Figure 8 , Fig.10 and Fig.11 As shown, there are two baffles 154 , one end of the two baffles 154 is respectively located at the junction of the smoke exhaust area 142 and the two air suction areas 144 , and the other end of the two baffles 154 is respectively located in the space between the axial flow fan and the two electrical components 112 .

[0131] In addition, if Figure 7 , Figure 8 , Fig.10 and Fig.11 As shown, the space between the two baffles 154 forms a part of the smoke exhaust channel 108. The smoke after passing through the axial flow fan and the air after heat exchange with the electrical component 112 can flow from the smoke exhaust channel 108 between the two baffles 154 to the smoke exhaust area 142 of the grille structure 140, and then be exhausted through the smoke exhaust area 142.

[0132] In addition, the cooking utensil 100 proposed in this embodiment has all the beneficial effects of the cooking utensil 100 proposed in the first embodiment. On the one hand, it can simplify the overall structure of the cooking utensil 100, especially it is conducive to realizing the small volume and large capacity design of the cooking utensil 100 and reducing the weight of the cooking utensil 100. On the other hand, it can simplify the processing procedures and reduce the cost of the cooking utensil 100, which will not be discussed in detail here.

[0133] On the basis of any of the above embodiments, further, Figure 1 As shown, the main structure also includes a cooking cavity 126 and a door body 156. A working cavity is provided inside the cooking cavity 126, and the working cavity can be used to place food to be cooked. The air suction channel 104 is provided on the cooking cavity 126, located at the top of the cooking cavity 126, the hood structure 106 is connected to the cooking cavity 126, and the cooking cavity 126 is located inside the hood structure 106. In addition, the door body 156 is connected to the cooking cavity 126 in an opening and closing manner, and closes the working cavity during the cooking process.

[0134] On the basis of any of the above embodiments, the fan assembly 110 further includes a motor and an impeller, and the motor can drive the impeller to drive the airflow. Specifically, the motor of the fan assembly 110 is an asynchronous motor, which has a higher speed, a larger air volume, and can achieve a better heat dissipation effect.

[0135] Based on any of the above embodiments, the cooking appliance 100 proposed by the present invention includes but is not limited to microwave ovens, ovens, steamers, microwave ovens and steamers.

[0136] The ninth embodiment of the present invention proposes a cooking appliance 100. The present invention is provided with an air suction channel 104 on the main structure 102. The air suction channel 104 can suck in cold air from the external environment. The cold air passes through the electrical component 112 to cool down the electrical components 120 in the electric control box 114, and finally passes through the fan component 110 and is discharged together with the smoke. In this way, the heat dissipation of the electrical component 112 and the exhaust of the smoke in the present invention share a fan component 110, and the motor of the fan component 110 adopts an asynchronous motor, and the speed of the asynchronous motor is much higher than the speed of the separate heat dissipation motor in the related art, which reduces one motor and fan, and has a larger air volume and better heat dissipation effect. In addition, the heat dissipation of the electrical component 112 and the exhaust of the smoke share a fan component 110, which can also simplify the structure, save space, reduce costs, and reduce the weight of the cooking appliance 100.

[0137] Specifically, the cooking appliance 100 proposed by the present invention includes a cooking cavity 126, a door body 156, a hood structure 106, an electrical component 112, etc. The cooking cavity 126 includes a working cavity, a magnetic control 122, an air guide 124, a first partition 128, a second partition 132, a third partition 134, and a fourth partition 136, etc. The hood structure 106 includes a mounting cavity 138, a grille structure 140, a top plate 150, a bottom plate 152, and a fan assembly 110, etc.

[0138] The fan assembly 110 is mounted on the mounting cavity 138, the top plate 150 is mounted on the fan assembly 110, and the electrical assembly 112 is mounted on the mounting cavity 138 and flush with the fan assembly 110, presenting a U-shaped structure as a whole. When the fan assembly 110 is working, the smoke moves upward from the left and right sides from the bottom of the mounting cavity 138 through the suction force of the fan assembly 110, passes through the mounting cavity 138, and is discharged backward and forward through the grille structure 140.

[0139] Furthermore, the fan assembly 110 is mounted on the mounting cavity 138, and the electric control box 114 of the electrical assembly 112 is provided with a first communication port 116 and a second communication port 118. The first communication port 116 of the electric control box 114 is connected to the fourth communication port 148 on the mounting cavity 138, and is connected to the air suction channel 104 through the third communication port 130 on the first partition 128; the second communication port 118 of the electric control box 114 faces the fan assembly 110, and acts to discharge all the hot air in the electric control box 114 into the fan assembly 110. The entire heat dissipation is optimized and integrated, and the structure of the air suction channel 104 is simpler.

[0140] When the fan assembly 110 is working, the cold air from the external environment enters the air suction channel 104 through the air suction area 144 of the grille structure 140, passes through the high-temperature magnetic control unit 122, and enters the electric control box 114 through the air guide 124. The airflow passes through the electric device 120 and is sucked into the fan assembly 110, and finally discharged through the exhaust area 142 of the grille structure 140 to achieve heat dissipation. In particular, the power for heat dissipation of the cooking appliance 100 comes from the exhaust fan assembly 110, which reduces one motor and fan blade compared to the related art, and can also reduce the circuit module for controlling the motor, which can further save costs.

[0141] In this way, the cooking appliance 100 proposed by the present invention realizes the multifunctional use of the fan assembly 110, which can be used to exhaust smoke and dissipate heat for the electrical assembly 112. The electrical assembly 112 no longer needs to be configured with a separate fan assembly for heat dissipation, and compared with the related art, at least one fan assembly can be reduced, and the number of motor-related control modules can be reduced.

[0142] In this way, on the one hand, the overall structure of the cooking utensil 100 can be simplified, especially it is conducive to realizing the small volume and large capacity design of the cooking utensil 100 and reducing the weight of the cooking utensil 100. On the other hand, it can simplify the processing process and reduce the cost of the cooking utensil 100.

[0143] Furthermore, after the cold air from the external environment exchanges heat with the electrical components 112, the airflow after heat exchange will enter the smoke exhaust passage 108 and be exhausted together with the smoke in the smoke exhaust passage 108. In this way, the smoke exhaust passage 108 can also be used as a heat dissipation duct, thereby making full use of the smoke exhaust passage 108 to simplify the overall structure of the cooking appliance 100, facilitate processing and manufacturing, and also facilitate reducing the cost of the cooking appliance 100.

[0144] Furthermore, the magnetic control 122 is disposed between the air suction port of the air suction channel 104 and the first communication port 116 of the electric control box 114. Thus, during the operation of the fan assembly 110, cold air from the external environment enters the air suction channel 104 and contacts and exchanges heat with the magnetic control 122, thereby reducing the temperature of the magnetic control 122; and then, the airflow after heat exchange passes through the electrical device 120 to dissipate heat for the electrical device 120. Thus, in the cooking utensil 100 proposed by the present invention, the fan assembly 110 can not only dissipate heat for the electrical device 120, but also dissipate heat for the magnetic control 122, further realizing the multifunctional use of the fan assembly 110.

[0145] Furthermore, the electrical component 112 and the fan component 110 are integrated on the top of the host structure. In this way, the positions of the electrical component 112 and the fan component 110 on the host structure 102 are reasonably optimized, which is conducive to realizing the miniaturization design of the cooking appliance 100. In addition, by optimizing the positions of the electrical component 112 and the fan component 110, it is possible to ensure that the external airflow can pass through the magnetic control component 122 and the electrical component 120 in sequence, thereby meeting the heat dissipation requirements of the magnetic control component 122 and the electrical component 120.
