[0002] With continuously rising housing prices, every inch of land in a house is becoming increasingly valuable. To save kitchen space, various home appliances are trending towards integration. Among related technologies, integrated cooktops combine a stove, range hood, and steaming / grilling functions.

[0003] Existing integrated cooktops typically have only one cavity for steaming, baking, or steam-baking functions. However, this presents inconveniences in certain scenarios. For example, if a user needs to cook other foods while the integrated cooktop is steaming or baking, they must wait for it to finish or purchase other cooking appliances. Therefore, there is still room for improvement in the integration level of existing integrated cooktops to meet increasingly diverse lifestyle needs. Summary of the Invention

[0034] Existing integrated cooktops typically have only one cavity for steaming, baking, or steam-baking functions. However, this presents inconveniences in certain scenarios. For example, if a user needs to cook other foods while the integrated cooktop is steaming or baking, they must wait for it to finish or purchase other cooking appliances. Therefore, there is still room for improvement in the integration level of existing integrated cooktops to meet increasingly diverse lifestyle needs.

[0035] To solve this technical problem, this application provides a dual-cavity integrated stove 1, such as... Figure 1-4As shown, the dual-cavity integrated stove 1 includes a cabinet 100, a stove 200 mounted on the cabinet, and a range hood head 300;

[0036] The cabinet 100 includes a front installation area 110 and a rear installation area 120; in the rear installation area, a fan 500 connected to the range hood head and a flue 400 connected to the fan are provided; in the front installation area 110, a first middle shelf 600 is provided, which divides the front installation area into an upper installation area 111 and a lower installation area 112.

[0037] The lower mounting area houses a cavity assembly 700, which includes a left cavity 710 and a right cavity 720 arranged side to side; the upper mounting area houses a water tank 800, a steam generating module 900, and a hot air generating module 10.

[0038] like Figure 1 As shown, within the cabinet, because the rear installation area 120 is equipped with a fan 500 connected to the range hood head 300, the front installation area has limited space while maintaining the overall cabinet dimensions. Within this limited space, ensuring the normal operation of the cooking function, maximizing the cavity's capacity, and facilitating convenient operation are crucial. Therefore, a rational layout of the integrated stove's cooking section cavity, water tank, steam generation module, and hot air generation module is essential.

[0039] In this embodiment, the front installation area of ​​the cabinet is divided into an upper installation area 111 and a lower installation area 112 by the first middle layer plate 600, and a left cavity 710 and a right cavity 720 are set in the lower installation area to realize the dual-cavity cooking function.

[0040] Meanwhile, this application places the water tank, steam generation module and hot air generation module in the upper installation area, freeing up space on the left and right sides of the front installation area. This allows the left and right cavities to be made as large as possible in width (left and right direction) to increase the cavity capacity.

[0041] Furthermore, since the hot air generation module is located in the upper installation area, it can reduce the height (vertical direction) and increase the width (horizontal direction) of the cavity to a certain extent, ensuring that the difference in height and width is not too large. This results in a relatively square overall shape for the cavity, allowing the hot air generated by the module to easily reach all parts of the cavity and improving the uniformity of heating of the food inside. This effectively overcomes the following problems in existing technologies: because the hot air generation module is located on the left, right, or both sides of the cavity, the individual cavities of the dual-cavity integrated stove have a long and narrow shape (tall and narrow). During operation, hot air blows out from the side, resulting in less heating of the food in the upper or lower parts of the cavity and more heating in the middle, easily leading to uneven heating of the food.

[0042] The upper mounting area 111 includes a first upper mounting area 1111 and a second upper mounting area 1112 arranged vertically, and the water tank 800 is located in the first upper mounting area 1111.

[0043] The integrated stove also includes cabinet doors 50, which include a left cabinet door and a right cabinet door corresponding to the left cavity and the right cavity respectively (only one cabinet door is shown in the figure);

[0044] The cabinet door is located at the front end of the lower mounting area 112 and the second upper mounting area 1112; when the cabinet door is closed, it can block the lower mounting area and the second upper mounting area.

[0045] This design ensures that the cabinet door will not interfere with the first installation area during opening and closing, allowing the water tank to be removed and the water changed without opening the door.

[0046] In some specific embodiments, a control panel 30 is provided at the front end of the first upper mounting area 1111, and the control panel has a water tank mounting port. When in use, the water tank can be moved in and out simply by operating the control panel.

[0047] Preferably, the water tank mounting port is located in the middle of the control panel, dividing the control panel into a left control area and a right control area. Preferably, the left control area is linked to the cooking function of the left cavity, and the right control area is linked to the cooking function of the right cavity. The cooking functions include, but are not limited to, a steam generator, a hot air generation module, a range hood, a cooling fan, and an electric heating module.

[0048] In this embodiment, the water tank is located in the first upper mounting area; the steam generating module and the hot air generating module are located in the second upper mounting area; the left and right cavities are located in the lower mounting area below the first middle layer plate; the temperature of the three areas decreases sequentially from top to bottom.

[0049] Preferably, a second middle layer plate 20 is also provided in the front mounting area, the second middle layer plate dividing the upper mounting area into a first upper mounting area and a second upper mounting area.

[0050] Thus, on the one hand, the heat generated by the steam generating module and the hot air generating module is concentrated in the second upper mounting area to a certain extent, so that the heat is minimized and effectively protects the water tank; on the other hand, the heat insulation cotton is set between the first middle plate and the left and right cavities to effectively ensure the temperature of the lower mounting area cavity, while preventing the heat of the cavity from rising to the second upper mounting area, thus protecting the steam generating module and the hot air generating module.

[0051] Furthermore, two exhaust devices 40 are also provided in the second upper installation area; the integrated stove in this embodiment has a heat dissipation channel on the cabinet door, which runs vertically through the cabinet door; the cavity assembly includes a front panel, a U-shaped frame, and an inner rear panel, and two heat dissipation vents 60 are provided on the front panel and are directly opposite the second upper installation area, with one exhaust device corresponding to one heat dissipation vent; under the action of the exhaust device, air below the cabinet door flows upward through the heat dissipation channel, carrying away the heat on the cabinet door, and is drawn in from the heat dissipation vent, forming a heat dissipation airflow. Furthermore, under the action of the exhaust device, air enters the second upper installation area from the heat dissipation vent, and further carries away the heat in the second upper installation area, achieving heat dissipation for the second upper installation area. Furthermore, this embodiment is provided with two exhaust devices, one on the left and one on the right, which can dissipate heat from the left and right cabinet doors, the steam generation module, and the hot air generation module in the second installation area. Furthermore, preferably, the second middle layer plate 20 has through holes that connect the first and second upper mounting areas, and the air outlet of the exhaust device 40 is connected to the first upper mounting area, so that the first upper mounting area can be cooled at the same time when the exhaust device is working.

[0052] Furthermore, in the integrated stove of this application embodiment, the steam outlet of the steam generating module 900 is connected to at least one of the left cavity and the right cavity, so as to realize the steaming and baking function in at least one cavity.

[0053] Preferably, the steam generating module is located directly below the water tank. This effectively shortens the water path between the steam generating module and the water tank. Furthermore, since the water tank is located in the middle of the control panel, and the steam generating module is located directly below the water tank, when the steam generating module is connected to the left or right cavities, the steam path between the steam generating module and the left or right cavity can be effectively shortened, further providing space for increasing the cavity capacity.

[0054] Furthermore, the cavity assembly in this application embodiment also includes a front plate, on which a left cavity opening and a right cavity opening are initially formed, and a vertical spoke is provided between two adjacent cavity openings.

[0055] In this embodiment, the left and right cabinet doors are connected to the front panel for opening and closing. The front panel connects the left and right cavities, and there is a gap between the left and right cavities. The width of the vertical spokes is equal to the sum of the projected widths of two adjacent cabinet doors on the vertical spokes. Thus, while ensuring a normal connection between the cabinet doors and the front panel, the spoke width is minimized, thereby minimizing the gap between two adjacent cavities, thereby increasing the capacity of a single cavity and the overall capacity of the left and right cavities.

[0056] Furthermore, the steam path between the steam generating module and the left or right cavity is set in the gap between the left and right cavities. Since the water tank and steam generating module are located in the middle, the steam path between the steam generating module and the left or right cavity is further shortened, providing more space for increasing the cavity capacity.

[0057] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the left and right cavities are provided with exhaust ports, which are directly connected to the volute of the fan, further providing space for increasing the cavity capacity. Preferably, a connecting pipe is provided between the exhaust port and the volute of the fan, and the connecting pipe is a straight pipe that extends horizontally into the volute. This further provides space for increasing the cavity capacity.

[0058] The hot air generating module 10 includes an air frying module connected to the left cavity and an air frying module connected to the right cavity, so as to realize the steaming and baking functions in the left and right cavities.

[0059] Preferably, the stove mounting bracket is fixed to the second middle layer plate, and the water tank storage mechanism is fixed to the second middle layer plate.

[0060] The steam generating module, hot air generating module, and exhaust fan are all fixed to the first middle layer plate.

[0061] There is a left gap between the left cavity and the left cabinet panel, a middle gap between the left cavity and the right cavity, a right gap between the right cavity and the right cabinet panel, and an upper gap between the left and right cavities and the first middle layer panel. The left gap, the middle gap, the right gap, and the upper gap are used to accommodate the cavity insulation cotton.

[0062] Based on the disclosure and teachings of the foregoing specification, those skilled in the art can make changes and modifications to the above embodiments. Therefore, the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed and described above, and some modifications and changes to the present invention should also fall within the protection scope of the claims of the present invention. Furthermore, although some specific terms are used in this specification, these terms are only for convenience of explanation and do not constitute any limitation on the present invention.
