DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0039] For better illustrating the application, the application is described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0040] It should be noted that the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the application, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative labor fall within the scope of protection of the embodiments of the application.​​

It also will be understood that the term "and / or" as used herein refers to and encompasses any and all possible combinations of one or more of the associated listed items.

[0042] The following description refers to the accompanying drawings. In the following description, same numbers represent similar features that have a similar function and / or structure. The following examples of embodiments are described in enough detail to enable those with ordinary skill in the art to make and use it. Elements described in connection with one embodiment are generally applicable to other embodiments, except as explicitly noted. The following description is not intended to be limited to the described examples, but is intended to be commensurate with the scope of the application as set forth in the claims.

[0043] In addition, in the description of the application, unless otherwise specified, "multiple" refers to two or more. "And / or", describes the association between the associated objects, which means that there can be three relationships, for example, A and / or B, which can represent: A exists alone, A and B exist together, and B exists alone. The character " / " generally represents that the associated objects before and after are a "or" relationship.

[0044] In combination Figures 1 to 6 As shown, the application provides an automatic noodle cooking machine, a noodle cooking device and a magnetic driving noodle basket mechanism, wherein the magnetic driving mechanism discards the existing noodle basket mounting plate driving the noodle basket to rotate, innovatively uses the magnetic driving mode, simplifies the structure, facilitates maintenance, and has high versatility. It should be noted that the automatic noodle cooking machine, the noodle cooking device and the magnetic driving noodle basket mechanism are not limited to heating and cooking noodles, but also can heat and cook dumplings, wontons and tangyuan and other food materials.

[0045] The application provides a magnetic driving mechanism, which comprises a non-magnetic spacer 10, a magnetic driving assembly 20 and a movement assembly 30 with a noodle basket 40, wherein the magnetic driving assembly 20 and the movement assembly 30 are respectively arranged on opposite sides of the non-magnetic spacer 10; the movement assembly 30 moves along the movement track of the magnetic driving assembly 20 under the magnetic force of the magnetic driving assembly 20.

[0046] Specifically, the magnetic driving assembly 20 is arranged on one side of the non-magnetic spacer 10, and the movement assembly 30 is arranged on the other side of the non-magnetic spacer 10, both of which are connected and driven by magnetism without direct connection and contact, and the structure is simple. In addition, the movement assembly 30 with the face basket 40 can be directly pulled out when it needs to be replaced, cleaned or repaired, without the need to operate other parts. When used in combination with the noodle cooking device, the magnetic driving assembly 20 is connected with the running track 2, the running track 2 is powered to work and drive the magnetic driving assembly 20 to move, so that the movement assembly 30 moves along the movement track of the magnetic driving assembly 20 under the magnetic force of the magnetic driving assembly 20, thereby realizing the movement of the face basket 40 in the noodle cooking pot 1 to reach the designated position to load and dump food materials (such as noodles). In addition, due to the cancellation of the structure of the face basket mounting plate, the face basket 40 and the movement assembly 30 work as a separate assembly, so that the position, size, number and movement track of the face basket 40 are no longer limited, improving the versatility.

[0047] In an embodiment, the movement assembly 30 and the magnetic driving assembly 20 are arranged in an up-down distribution, the non-magnetic spacer 10 is arranged at the upper edge of the noodle cooking pot 1, the movement assembly 30 is located on the upper side of the non-magnetic spacer 10, and the magnetic driving assembly 20 is located on the lower side of the non-magnetic spacer 10. The above arrangement enables the magnetic driving assembly 20 to reduce contact with steam or other external pollutants, reduce the cleaning and maintenance frequency of the magnetic driving assembly 20, and improve the service life of the magnetic driving face basket mechanism of the application. In addition, the movement assembly 30 with the face basket 40, which is frequently in contact with steam or other external pollutants, can be disassembled for regular cleaning and maintenance to ensure the hygiene of the noodle cooking device.

[0048] Further, due to the up-down distribution of the magnetic driving mode, the new movement assembly 30 can be placed on the upper side of the non-magnetic spacer 10. When the running track 2 is powered to work, the magnetic driving assembly 20 located on the lower side of the non-magnetic spacer 10 will move accordingly, and when it moves to the corresponding position of the new movement assembly 30, it will automatically attract the movement assembly 30 and drive it to move together, thereby completing the assembly without the need for mechanical connection, which is simple and convenient.

[0049] In another embodiment, the movement assembly 30 and the magnetic driving assembly 20 are arranged in an inner-outer distribution.

[0050] In one embodiment, the magnetic drive assembly 20 includes: a magnetic drive section disposed near the non-magnetic spacer 10; and a connecting section connected to the magnetic drive section; the connecting section is used to connect to the running track 2. The magnetic drive assembly 20 of this application is connected to the running track 2 via the connecting section, so that when the running track 2 is energized, it can drive the magnetic drive section to move.

[0051] Further, the magnetic drive unit includes: a first mounting member 211 connected to the connecting part; the first mounting member 211 is provided with a receiving groove 2111; a second mounting member 212 connected to the first mounting member 211; a magnetic block 213 magnetically connected to the second mounting member 212 and located within the receiving groove 2111; and a rotational gap between the magnetic block 213 and the receiving groove 2111. In this application, the magnetic block 213 is magnetically connected to the second mounting member 212, rather than rigidly connected, so that during the movement of the motion component 30 and the magnetic drive component 20, even when encountering a turning position, the motion component 30 will drive the magnetic block 213 to rotate within the receiving groove 2111, making the turning of the motion component 30 smoother.

[0052] Furthermore, the connecting part includes: a mounting bracket 222 connected to the magnetic drive unit; and at least one connector 221, one end of which is connected to the mounting bracket 222, and the other end of which is detachably connected to the running track 2. This application, through the above method, enables the magnetic drive assembly 20 to be installed at a designated position on the running track 2 according to actual needs, so as to adjust the positions of multiple magnetic drive assemblies 20 on the running track 2.

[0053] Preferably, this application is connected to the mounting frame 222 and the running track 2 by two connectors 221, so that the magnetic drive assembly 20 remains stable during movement.

[0054] Preferably, the connector 221 includes: a connecting shaft 2211 connected to the running track 2; and a movable sleeve 2212 sleeved around the connecting shaft 2211, with a clearance between the movable sleeve 2212 and the connecting shaft 2211. Through this method, the movable sleeve 2212 can rotate relative to the connecting shaft 2211 due to the clearance. Even when encountering a turning position during movement, the magnetic drive assembly 20 can smoothly turn without jamming because the movable sleeve 2212 can rotate relative to the connecting shaft 2211.

[0055] Specifically, the movable sleeve 2212 has a movable groove, the diameter of which is larger than the diameter of the connecting shaft 2211. The other end (lower end) of the connecting shaft 2211 is provided with two elastic forks, and the two forks are provided with mounting holes. While being installed and connected to the running track 2 through the mounting holes, the two forks are elastic, allowing them to open under the action of elastic force to make abutting contact with the inner wall of the movable sleeve 2212. This prevents the movable sleeve 2212 from loosening and sliding down, and also does not affect the relative rotation of the movable sleeve 2212.

[0056] In one embodiment, the motion component 30 has a mating block 310 on the side near the non-magnetic spacer 10, and the mating block 310 is magnetically attracted to the magnetic block 213. This application enables the motion component 30 to be magnetically pulled by the magnetic drive component through the above method.

[0057] Furthermore, the mating block 310 can be a magnet or an iron block, depending on the required magnetic force.

[0058] In one embodiment, the magnetically driven basket mechanism further includes a plurality of bullseye bearings 50. These bullseye bearings 50 are respectively disposed on the side of the magnetically driven assembly 20 near the non-magnetic spacer 10 and on the side of the moving assembly 30 near the non-magnetic spacer 10. The bullseye bearings 50 are in sliding engagement with the non-magnetic spacer 10. This application utilizes the bullseye bearings 50 and their ball joints to achieve a sliding connection between the moving assembly 30, the magnetically driven assembly, and the non-magnetic spacer 10, reducing friction and noise during movement, thereby reducing the operating power of the motor used to drive the running track 2.

[0059] In one embodiment, the connection between the motion component 30 and the face basket 40 can be a rotational connection, welding, or other techniques commonly used by those skilled in the art, and this application does not impose any restrictions on this.

[0060] This application also provides a noodle cooking device, comprising: a noodle cooking pot 1 having a cooking chamber; a running track 2 disposed around the periphery of the noodle cooking pot 1; and a magnetically driven noodle basket mechanism as described above, wherein the non-magnetic spacer 10 is disposed on the upper edge of the noodle cooking pot 1; the motion component 30 is disposed on the upper side of the non-magnetic spacer 10, and the magnetically driven component 20 is disposed on the lower side of the non-magnetic spacer 10; the magnetically driven component 20 is connected to the running track 2 so that the noodle basket 40 moves within the cooking pot along the motion trajectory of the magnetically driven component 20, thereby moving to a designated position to receive ingredients (e.g., noodles) and to pour out ingredients (e.g., noodles).

[0061] This application also provides an automatic noodle cooker, which includes the noodle cooking device as described above. The automatic noodle cooker also includes a noodle adding mechanism and a noodle pouring mechanism, which are used in conjunction with the noodle cooking device.
