Combination oven

Abstract

This application discloses a combination stove, including a stovetop, an oven, a control device, and an air intake device. The oven is located below the stovetop, the control device is located below the stovetop and to one side of the oven, and the air intake device is located below the stovetop and behind the control device. The technical solution of this application includes a stovetop, an oven, a control device, and an air intake device. The placement of the oven, control device, and air intake device below the stovetop fully utilizes the space below the stovetop. Positioning the control device to one side of the oven, rather than on either side, creates sufficient space behind the control device for installing the air intake device. This also facilitates the wiring arrangement of the control device, allowing the wiring to be kept as far away from the oven as possible to prevent aging.

[0056] The technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this application, and not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0057] It should be noted that all directional indicators (such as up, down, left, right, front, back, etc.) in the embodiments of this application are only used to explain the relative positional relationship and movement of each component in a certain specific posture (as shown in the figure). If the specific posture changes, the directional indicator will also change accordingly.

[0058] In this application, unless otherwise expressly specified and limited, the terms "connection," "fixed," etc., should be interpreted broadly. For example, "fixed" can mean a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral part; it can mean a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can mean a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; it can mean the internal communication of two components or the interaction between two components, unless otherwise expressly limited. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this application according to the specific circumstances.

[0059] Furthermore, the use of terms such as "first" and "second" in this application is for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying their relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of technical features indicated. Therefore, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one of those features. Additionally, the technical solutions of the various embodiments can be combined with each other, but only on the basis of being achievable by those skilled in the art. If the combination of technical solutions is contradictory or impossible to implement, such a combination of technical solutions should be considered non-existent and not within the scope of protection claimed in this application.

[0060] A combination cooktop is a type of modular kitchen appliance, such as a combination cooktop that integrates cooktop and oven functions into one unit. The cooktop function includes the corresponding cooktop area, allowing for cooking with either open flame or non-open flame. For example, cooking zones are located on the left and right sides of the combination cooktop, each equipped with an electromagnetic heater or a burner that uses combustible gas. The oven function uses high temperatures within a sealed space to bake food. The high temperatures in the oven can be generated electrically or through gas combustion. For instance, if the cooktop uses an open flame for cooking, the oven can correspondingly use gas combustion for heating; if the cooktop uses electromagnetic heating, the oven can correspondingly use electric heating.

[0061] Compared to separate cooktops and ovens, combination cooktops, integrating the functions of both appliances, tend to be bulky and inconvenient for the arrangement of components. An improper arrangement can lead to an abnormally large product size or hinder the performance of individual components. To address this, this application discloses a combination cooktop that optimizes the product's spatial layout and facilitates the arrangement of its components.

[0062] The following section will provide a detailed explanation using a combination stove that utilizes gas combustion.

[0063] Combination Figure 1 , Figures 4 to 6 As shown, in some embodiments, the combination stove includes a cooktop 2000, an oven 3000, a control device 1000, and an air intake device 4000.

[0064] The stove 2000 constitutes at least part of the stove. The stove 2000 is equipped with three burners, namely the first burner 2100, the second burner 2200 and the third burner 2300. The first burner 2100, the second burner 2200 and the third burner 2300 are arranged in a triangle. The first burner 2100 and the second burner 2200 are closer to the user and are larger than the third burner 2300, so they can hold larger pots. The third burner 2300 is relatively farther away from the user and is smaller than the first burner 2100 and the second burner 2200, so it can hold smaller pots. All three burners are connected to the air intake device 4000 to receive air supply from the air intake device 4000.

[0065] The oven 3000 is positioned below the cooktop 2000, making full use of the space beneath the cooktop 2000. The oven 3000 is connected to the air intake device 4000 to receive air from the air intake device 4000; that is, the oven 3000 uses the high temperature generated by the combustion of gas to bake food. The oven 3000 correspondingly has an inner cavity structure and a door 3100, which can be opened relative to the inner cavity structure to allow food to be placed inside the inner cavity structure.

[0066] The control device 1000 is located below the stove 2000, making full use of the space below the stove 2000. The control device 1000 is located on one side of the oven 3000 instead of on both sides of the oven 3000. Since the oven 3000 has a certain depth (from front to back), placing the control device 1000 on one side of the oven 3000 allows for a larger space behind the control device 1000, which can be used to more flexibly arrange the air intake device 4000. The air intake device 4000 is a device used to receive external air and adjust the air supply to the stove 2000 and the oven 3000. The air intake device 4000 is more centrally located behind the control device 1000, which simplifies the layout of the air intake device 4000's piping. Furthermore, since the control device 1000 is located on one side of the oven 3000, it is more convenient for internal wiring to be connected to the control device 1000. The wiring can be kept as far away from the oven 3000 as possible to avoid the high temperature generated by the oven 3000 from accelerating the aging of the wiring.

[0067] It is understandable that the control device 1000 is a component that allows the user to operate the combination stove to perform corresponding functions. Generally speaking, the control device 1000 is equipped with function keys (1210, 1124). The function keys (1210, 1124) can be in various forms such as buttons, touch, and rotary, and can be selected according to the actual situation.

[0068] Therefore, the technical solution of this application includes a stove 2000, an oven 3000, a control device 1000, and an air intake device 4000. The oven 3000, the control device 1000, and the air intake device 4000 are located below the stove 2000, making full use of the space below the stove 2000. The control device 1000 is located on one side of the oven 3000, rather than on both sides of the oven 3000, which creates a sufficiently large space behind the control device 1000 for installing the air intake device 4000. It also facilitates the wiring layout of the control device 1000, and the wiring of the control device 1000 can be kept as far away from the oven 3000 as possible to prevent aging.

[0069] Combination Figure 6 As shown, in some embodiments, in order to effectively install the stove 2000, oven 3000, control device 1000 and air intake device 4000, the combination stove also includes a frame 6000. The frame 6000 serves as the skeleton of the combination stove and plays the role of supporting the stove 2000, oven 3000, control device 1000 and air intake device 4000. Generally, the frame 6000 is made of sheet metal, so that the frame 6000 can be arranged to form a frame structure.

[0070] The frame 6000 has a mounting cavity 6100. The frame 6000 is provided with a first through-hole 6110, a second through-hole 6120 and a third through-hole 6130. The first through-hole 6110 communicates with the mounting cavity 6100, the second through-hole 6120 communicates with the mounting cavity 6100, and the third through-hole 6130 communicates with the mounting cavity 6100. The stove 2000 is installed in the frame 6000. A part of the stove 2000 is embedded in the mounting cavity 6100 and another part is exposed in the first through-hole 6110. In this way, the space of the mounting cavity 6100 is fully utilized. The setting of the first through-hole 6110 provides positioning for the installation of the stove 2000. Oven 3000 is installed in frame 6000, with most of oven 3000 embedded in mounting cavity 6100 and oven door 3100 exposed through second opening 6120. Second opening 6120 faces the front of the combination stove, making it easy for the user to open oven door 3000. Control device 1000 is installed in frame 6000 and embedded in mounting cavity 6100. Control device 1000 is exposed through third opening 6130 for user operation. Third opening 6130 is the same as second opening 6120 and faces the front of the combination stove, making it easy for the user to observe and operate.

[0071] By forming a first opening 6110, a second opening 6120, and a third opening 6130 on the frame 6000, the stove 2000, oven 3000, and air intake device 4000 can be at least partially embedded into the mounting cavity 6100 and exposed from the corresponding openings, which not only facilitates the full utilization of space but also makes the components more compact.

[0072] When the oven 3000 needs to be designed to be embedded in a cabinet without damaging the countertop, openings are provided at the top and front of the cabinet. The cooktop can be embedded into the cabinet from top to bottom, thus exposing the cooktop 2000 in the opening at the top of the cabinet, and the oven 3000 and control unit 1000 in the opening at the front of the cabinet. To ensure successful embedding of the cooktop, its lateral dimension (left-right direction) cannot exceed the lateral dimension of the front opening of the cabinet. However, to allow for a smooth embedding, the cooktop's lateral dimension will be slightly smaller than the lateral dimension of the front opening, creating a gap between the cabinet and the cooktop, resulting in an unsightly appearance. Therefore, a combination of... Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, in some embodiments, the oven 3000 has a door 3100, which extends along the length of the cooktop 2000 (i.e., the transverse direction of the combination cooktop). Figure 1 (In the left and right directions) it protrudes from the frame 6000. For example, in Figure 1As shown in the diagram, the oven 3000 is located on the left side below the cooktop 2000. The oven door 3100 protrudes to the left side of the frame 6000, and the oven door 3100 is designed to be detachable. That is to say, the door 3100 can be removed and reinstalled separately. Before embedding the combination cooktop into the cabinet, the oven door 3100 is removed first, and after the combination cooktop is embedded into the cabinet, the oven door 3100 is reinstalled. In this way, the oven door 3100 will cover the gap formed between the combination cooktop and the left cabinet.

[0073] Combination Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, the corresponding control device 1000 also has an outer panel (described in detail below, including a first outer panel 1150 and a second outer panel 1220), the outer panel being along the length of the stove 2000 (i.e., the horizontal direction of the combination stove). Figure 1 (As shown in the left and right directions) protrudes from the frame 6000. For example, in Figure 1 As indicated, the control device 1000 is located on the right side below the cooktop 2000. The outer panel of the control device 1000 protrudes to the right side of the frame 6000, and the outer panel of the control device 1000 is designed to be detachable. That is to say, the outer panel of the control device 1000 can be removed and reinstalled separately. Before embedding the combination cooktop into the cabinet, the outer panel of the control device 1000 is removed first, and after the combination cooktop is embedded into the cabinet, the outer panel of the control device 1000 is reinstalled. In this way, the outer panel of the control device 1000 will cover the gap formed between the combination cooktop and the right cabinet.

[0074] Combination Figure 12 As shown, in some embodiments, to facilitate user operation, the control device 1000 includes a second control mechanism 1200 and a first control mechanism 1100. The first control mechanism 1100 is provided with a function key 1124, and the second control mechanism 1200 is also provided with a function key 1210. The function key 1124 of the first control mechanism 1100 can be hidden or exposed, while the function key 1210 of the second control mechanism 1200 is usually set to be exposed on the surface of the combination stove. In this way, less frequently used functions or additional functions can be set to the first control mechanism 1100 for control, while frequently used functions can be set to the second control mechanism 1200 for control, making it more convenient for users to use.

[0075] Specifically, the control device 1000 includes a module consisting of a frame 1300, a second control mechanism 1200, and a first control mechanism 1100 mounted on the frame 1300. This module is then mounted on the rack 6000, connecting the frame 1300 and the rack 6000 to fix the entire control device 1000. The second control mechanism 1200 and the first control mechanism 1100 are arranged vertically, with the second control mechanism 1200 located at the top and the first control mechanism 1100 at the bottom. This makes reasonable use of the space on one side of the oven 3000 and makes it more convenient for users to use commonly used functions.

[0076] The first control mechanism 1100 includes a first outer panel 1150, which is located in front of the first control mechanism 1100 and protrudes from the frame 6000 along the length of the stove 2000. For example, in Figure 1 As indicated, the first control mechanism 1100 is located on the right side below the cooktop 2000. The first outer panel 1150 of the first control mechanism 1100 protrudes to the right side of the frame 6000 and is detachable. Detachment can be achieved through various methods, such as clips, screws, or magnets. This means the first outer panel 1150 can be removed and reinstalled separately. Before embedding the cooktop into the cabinet, the first outer panel 1150 is removed, and after embedding, it is reinstalled. This way, the first outer panel 1150 will cover the gap between the cooktop and the right-side cabinet. Since the function keys 1124 of the first control mechanism 1100 can be hidden or exposed, they can move with the corresponding parts. This means the first outer panel 1150 can be placed on top of it, allowing it to move as well (details below).

[0077] The second control mechanism 1200 includes a second outer panel 1220, which is located in front of the second control mechanism 1200 and protrudes from the frame 6000 along the length of the stove 2000. For example, in Figure 1 The second control mechanism 1200 is located on the right side below the stove 2000. The second outer panel 1220 of the second control mechanism 1200 protrudes to the right side of the frame 6000 and is designed to be detachable. There are various ways to detach it, such as clips, screws, magnetic attraction, etc. In other words, the second outer panel 1220 can be removed and reinstalled separately. Before embedding the combination stove into the cabinet, the second outer panel 1220 is removed and then reinstalled after the combination stove is embedded into the cabinet. In this way, the second outer panel 1220 will cover the gap formed between the combination stove and the right cabinet.

[0078] Combination Figures 13 to 15 As shown, in some embodiments, the first control mechanism 1100 includes a frame 1110, an operating element 1120, an elastic element 1130, and a switch 1140.

[0079] The frame 1110 serves as the skeleton for mounting the operating component 1120, the elastic component 1130, and the switch 1140, thus supporting these components. The frame 1110 can be made of various materials; for example, it can be made of plastic and molded in one piece, or it can be manufactured through sheet metal bending, welding, or other methods. Generally, to maintain high strength, the frame 1110 is made of sheet metal. The frame 1110 has a closed ring structure. At this time, the operating element 1120, the elastic element 1130 and the switch 1140 can be installed on the frame 1110 and located in the space enclosed by the frame 1110. The frame 1110 and the frame 1300 are connected to fix the first control mechanism 1100 to the frame 1300. The frame 1300 fixes the second control mechanism 1200 to form a module that is convenient to install on the rack 6000.

[0080] The operating element 1120 is configured to be movably connected to the frame 1110. This movable connection means that the operating element 1120 is movable relative to the frame 1110. The operating element 1120 is connected to the frame 1110, and its movement does not affect the state of the frame 1110. This movability of the operating element 1120 allows the function key 1124 to have states that are hidden within the frame 1110 and exposed within the frame 1110. When the user needs to use the corresponding function, the operating element 1120 can be moved to expose the function key 1124; when the user does not need to use the corresponding function, the operating element 1120 can be moved to hide the function key 1124, making it invisible to the user.

[0081] It is understandable that there are multiple movable connections between the operating element 1120 and the frame 1110.

[0082] For example, the operating component 1120 and the frame 1110 can reciprocate linearly. When the user needs to use the corresponding function, the operating component 1120 is moved linearly out of the frame 1110, at which point the function key 1124 on the upper surface of the operating component 1120 is exposed in the frame 1110, and the user can operate it. When the user does not need to use the corresponding function, the operating component 1120 is moved linearly into the frame 1110, at which point the function key 1124 on the upper surface of the operating component 1120 is hidden inside the frame 1110 and is not visible to the user, thus not affecting the appearance of the combination stove. At this time, the front surface of the operating component 1120 is exposed in the frame 1110, forming part of the appearance of the combination stove. It can be understood that the first outer panel 1150 can be fixed to the front of the operating component 1120 to form the front surface of the operating component 1120.

[0083] Alternatively, the operating component 1120 and the frame 1110 can be rotatably connected. When the user needs to use the corresponding function, the operating component 1120 can be rotated out of the frame 1110, exposing the function key 1124 within the frame 1110, allowing the user to operate it. When the user no longer needs to use the corresponding function, the operating component 1120 can be rotated back into the frame 1110, hiding the function key 1124 within the frame 1110, thus making it invisible to the user. For example, the operating component 1120 has a first side 1121 and a second side 1122, with a certain angle between the first side 1121 and the second side 1122. The function key 1124 is located on the second side 1122. When the function key 1124 needs to be hidden, the operating component 1120 is rotated until the second side 1122 moves into the frame 1110, while the first side 1121 is approximately vertical, forming the outer part of the combination stove. When the function key 1124 needs to be exposed, the operating component 1120 is rotated until the second side 1122 moves out of the frame 1110 and is approximately horizontal, while the first side 1121 is approximately tilted. At this time, the user can operate the function key 1124. It can be understood that the first outer panel 1150 can be fixed to the front of the operating component 1120 to form the front surface of the operating component 1120.

[0084] Of course, the movable connection between the operating element 1120 and the frame 1110 is not limited to the two examples mentioned above, as long as the state transformation between the operating element 1120 and the frame 1110 can be realized.

[0085] To facilitate the movement of the operating component 1120 and improve the user experience, the movement of the operating component 1120 is achieved through the cooperation of the elastic component 1130 and the switch 1140. The elastic component 1130 is connected to the operating component 1120 and the frame 1110, thereby providing a force for the movement of the operating component 1120. The elastic component 1130 may have a spiral portion 1131, a first end 1132, and a second end 1133. The first end 1132 and the second end 1133 are respectively located in the spiral portion 1131. The first end 1132 is connected to the operating component 1120, and the second end 1133 is connected to the frame 1110. For example, the operating component 1120 and the frame 1110 may each have a bayonet structure. The first end 1132 is inserted into the bayonet structure of the operating component 1120 and fixed therein, and the second end 1133 is inserted into the bayonet structure of the frame 1110 and fixed therein.

[0086] Switch 1140 is a locking and unlocking mechanism. Switch 1140 is located in one of the housing 1110 and the operating member 1120 and is configured to lock and unlock the other.

[0087] For example, switch 1140 is fixed to frame 1110, which can lock and unlock operating component 1120. When switch 1140 is unlocked, operating component 1120 moves out of frame 1110 under the action of elastic component 1130, so that function key 1124 is exposed. When it is necessary to hide function key 1124, operating component 1120 is moved into frame 1110 until it is locked by switch 1140.

[0088] Alternatively, the switch 1140 can be fixed to the operating component 1120, enabling the locking and unlocking of the frame 1110. When the switch 1140 is unlocked, the operating component 1120 moves out of the frame 1110 under the action of the elastic component 1130, exposing the function key 1124. During this process, the switch 1140 moves out of the frame 1110 in sync with the operating component 1120. When it is necessary to hide the function key 1124, the operating component 1120 is moved into the frame 1110, and the operating component 1120 drives the switch 1140 to move into the frame 1110 in sync until the switch 1140 touches the frame 1110 and locks the frame 1110.

[0089] The following explanation will use the example of a switch 1140 being installed in the frame 1110 to lock and unlock the operating element 1120.

[0090] When the function key 1124 needs to be hidden in the frame 1110, the user pushes the operating element 1120 into the frame 1110 so that the function key 1124 is hidden in the frame 1110. The switch 1140 locks the operating element 1120. At this time, the elastic element 1130 deforms, that is, the elastic element 1130 has a force applied to the operating element 1120. However, due to the locking effect of the switch 1140, the elastic element 1130 cannot push the operating element 1120 to move.

[0091] When it is necessary to switch the function key 1124 from being hidden in the frame 1110 to being exposed in the frame 1110, the switch 1140 is used to unlock the operating member 1120. Since the locking effect of the switch 1140 is no longer present, the elastic member 1130 will reset. Since the second end 1133 of the elastic member 1130 is fixed to the frame 1110, the first end 1132 of the elastic member 1130 will push the operating member 1120 to move, causing the operating member 1120 to move out of the frame 1110, thereby exposing the function key 1124 in the frame 1110.

[0092] In other words, through the cooperation of the elastic element 1130 and the switch 1140, when it is necessary to switch the function key 1124 to be exposed in the frame 1110, simply control the switch 1140 to unlock the operating element 1120, and the operating element 1120 will move under the action of the elastic element 1130, without the user needing to continuously apply force to the operating element 1120, making it more convenient and faster. When it is necessary to switch the function key 1124 to be hidden in the frame 1110, the user only needs to push the operating element 1120 toward the frame 1110 until it is locked by the switch 1140. It can be understood that when the function key 1124 is in the hidden state in the frame 1110, the elastic element 1130 can be in a compressed state or a stretched state. Correspondingly, when the function key 1124 is in the exposed state in the frame 1110, the elastic element 1130 can reset from a compressed state or a stretched state.

[0093] Combination Figure 14 As shown, in some embodiments, the operating member 1120 is configured to be rotatably connected to the frame 1110. That is, the function key 1124 is hidden in the frame 1110 or exposed in the frame 1110 through the rotation operation of the operating member 1120. For example, either the frame 1110 or the operating member 1120 may be provided with a rotating shaft 1111, while the other may be provided with a pawl 1123 that cooperates with the rotating shaft 1111. Alternatively, the rotating shaft 1111 may be cooperated with a bearing, etc., which can be selected according to the actual situation.

[0094] Optionally, such as Figure 15As shown, the structure of the elastic element 1130 is as follows: the elastic element 1130 is a torsion spring, including a helical part 1131, a first end 1132 and a second end 1133. The helical part 1131 is in a spiral coiled shape. The first end 1132 and the second end 1133 extend from the helical part 1131 by a certain length. That is to say, the first end 1132 and the second end 1133 need to gradually approach each other around the central axis of the helical part 1131 in order to deform the helical part 1131 and form an elastic force. In this torsion spring structure, the elastic element 1130 has its first end 1132 and second end 1133 fixed accordingly. The helical part 1131 can be fixed or not fixed. When the helical part 1131 is not fixed, it is not easy for the operating member 1120 to move and generate noise due to friction. However, when the helical part 1131 is not fixed, it is easy for the elastic element 1130 to bounce under the action of force when the first end 1132 and the second end 1133 are close to each other or far apart. In particular, if the first end 1132 and the second end 1133 are not secure, the entire elastic element 1130 is easy to fly away. Therefore, by setting the limiting part 1112, the limiting part 1112 can constrain the helical part 1131. When the elastic element 1130 deforms and returns to its original position, it can prevent the elastic element 1130 from flying away, making the installation of the elastic element 1130 more stable and reliable.

[0095] Optionally, in some embodiments, the first end 1132 and the second end 1133 of the elastic element 1130 need to gradually approach each other around the central axis of the spiral portion 1131 so that the spiral portion 1131 deforms and forms elastic force. This can be done by the first end 1132 and the second end 1133 gradually approaching each other along the spiral direction of the spiral portion 1131, or by the first end 1132 and the second end 1133 gradually approaching each other along the reverse spiral direction of the spiral portion 1131. Both methods can make the elastic element 1130 exert a force on the operating element 1120. Compared with the first end 1132 and the second end 1133 approaching each other along the reverse spiral direction, the first end 1132 and the second end 1133 approaching each other along the spiral direction further strengthens the spiral degree of the spiral portion 1131. Since the function key 1124 is in a hidden state most of the time, that is, the elastic element 1130 is in a deformed state most of the time, so it is not easy for the spiral portion 1131 to suffer metal fatigue. Since the spiral portion 1131 is relatively free relative to the first end 1132 and the second end 1133, the setting of the limiting portion 1112 ensures that the spiral portion 1131 deforms along the spiral direction, and avoids deformation in the reverse spiral direction due to the jumping of the elastic member 1130.

[0096] Optionally, in some embodiments, to avoid friction between the helical portion 1131 and the limiting portion 1112 during the movement of the operating member 1120, the helical portion 1131 is configured such that when the switch 1140 locks the operating member 1120, the helical portion 1131 disengages from the limiting portion 1112 and is a certain distance away from the limiting portion 1112, while when the switch 1140 unlocks the operating member 1120, the helical portion 1131 abuts against the limiting portion 1112 and is thus constrained by the limiting portion 1112. Specifically, when the function key 1124 is exposed in the frame 1110, the operating member 1120 moves out of the frame 1110. At this time, the elastic member 1130 is in a reset state, and the spiral part 1131 abuts against the limiting part 1112. When the operating member 1120 moves into the frame 1110, the function key 1124 is hidden in the frame 1110. During this process, due to the constraint of the limiting part 1112, the elastic member 1130 deforms along the spiral direction and disengages from the limiting part 1112, avoiding friction noise. When the control switch 1140 unlocks the operating member 1120, the operating member 1120 moves out of the frame 1110, and the function key 1124 is exposed in the frame 1110, the elastic member 1130 resets along the reverse spiral direction and gradually abuts against the limiting part 1112, and is constrained by the limiting part 1112.

[0097] Optionally, in order to simplify the operation of switch 1140, in some embodiments, switch 1140 is configured to switchably lock and unlock operator 1120 when operator 1120 presses switch 1140.

[0098] It is understood that the switchable locking and unlocking mechanism 1120 here locks the switch 1140 when pressed and unlocks it when pressed again, repeating this process. For example, the mechanism 1120 is equipped with a latch 1125. When the mechanism 1120 moves into the frame 1110, the latch 1125 is aligned with the switch 1140 and the switch 1140 is pressed, locking the latch 1125. When the mechanism 1120 is pressed towards the frame 1110, the latch 1125 presses the switch 1140 again, unlocking the latch 1125. The mechanism 1120 can then move out of the frame 1110 under the action of the elastic element 1130. This switch 1140 is also referred to by those skilled in the art as a "bouncer" or "beetle bouncer," and any switch 1140 of suitable specifications currently available on the market can be used. If switch 1140 is located on operating component 1120, then correspondingly lock tongue 1125 is located on frame 1110.

[0099] Thus, when the user needs to use function key 1124, they only need to press the operating component 1120 (first side 1121), and the switch 1140 will unlock the operating component 1120. The operating component 1120 will then pop out under the action of the elastic component 1130. When the user does not need to use function key 1124, the user can control the operating component 1120 to move toward the frame 1110 until the locking tongue 1125 abuts against the switch 1140 to lock it, which is convenient and quick.

[0100] Combination Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, in some embodiments, the air intake device 4000 includes a valve seat 4100 and a valve 4200. The valve seat 4100 is provided with an air supply channel and an air outlet 4001. The air outlet 4001 is connected to the air supply channel. It can be understood that the air supply channel is a channel for transmitting gas. The valve seat 4100 is generally provided with an air supply port, which is connected to the air supply channel. An external gas source enters the air supply channel through the air supply port and is then delivered to the stove 2000 and the oven 3000 through the air supply channel. Since the stove 2000 has multiple burners and the oven 3000 also requires gas, multiple valves 4200 are generally required on the valve seat 4100 to control the gas supplied to the stove 2000 and the oven 3000. By setting the gas supply channel to U-shape or ring shape, the valve 4200 can be installed on the valve seat 4100 along the extension direction of the gas supply channel to control the gas outlet 4001. The U-shape or ring shape of the gas supply channel can prevent the valve seat 4100 from occupying too much length, thereby maximizing the use of space and making it more suitable to centrally set the gas intake device 4000 behind the control device 1000.

[0101] Optionally, multiple valves 4200 are installed alternately on the valve seat 4100 along the extension direction of the gas supply channel, which facilitates the arrangement of pipelines on the valves 4200. For example, if the gas supply channel is U-shaped, the overall structure of the valve seat 4100 is also U-shaped. Four valves 4200 are provided along the extension direction of the gas supply channel. Since the valves 4200 need to be connected to the oven 3000 and the stove 2000 through pipelines to achieve gas supply, when the valves 4200 are spaced a certain distance apart, it is more convenient to arrange the pipelines and less likely to cause mutual interference.

[0102] Optionally, combined Figures 8 to 11 As shown, in some embodiments, in order to more firmly fix the valve seat 4100 and the valve 4200, the valve seat 4100 and the valve 4200 are fastened together by a convex-concave fit, so that the valve 4200 can effectively control the gas.

[0103] Specifically, the valve seat 4100 is provided with a first mounting part 4110, which is integrally formed with the valve seat 4100. The first mounting part 4110 has a convex arc surface 4111, and an air outlet 4001 is provided in the convex arc surface 4111. The valve 4200 is provided with a second mounting part 4210, which is integrally formed with the valve 4200. The second mounting part 4210 has a concave arc surface 4211, and an air inlet 4002 is provided in the concave arc surface 4211. When the valve 4200 is installed on the valve seat 4100, the concave arc surface 4211 and the convex arc surface 4111 cooperate to make the air inlet 4002 and the air outlet 4001 dock. The second mounting part 4210 is provided with an air inlet pipe 4213, which can be inserted into the air outlet 4001. This makes it easier to align the air inlet 4002 and the air outlet 4001 when installing the valve 4200 and the valve seat 4100.

[0104] The first mounting part 4110 is also provided with a first abutting surface 4112 located on both sides of the convex arc surface 4111, and the second mounting part 4210 is also provided with a second abutting surface 4212 located on both sides of the concave arc surface 4211. The first mounting part 4110 and the second mounting part 4210 are respectively provided with screw holes 4113. When the first abutting surface 4112 and the second abutting surface 4212 abut against each other, the first mounting part 4110 and the second mounting part 4210 can also be locked by screws passing through the first abutting surface 4112 and the second abutting surface 4212, thereby effectively fixing the valve seat 4100 and the valve 4200.

[0105] Optionally, to facilitate the installation of the intake device 4000, combined with... Figure 6 As shown, in some embodiments, the air intake device 4000 is fixed to the base plate of the frame 6000. For example, a portion of the base plate of the frame 6000 protrudes towards the interior of the combination stove, and the valve seat 4100 is fixed to the protruding portion of the base plate. The protruding portion of the base plate has high strength, thus effectively fixing the air intake device 4000 when connected to the valve seat 4100. This allows the air intake device 4000 to be positioned away from the stovetop 2000 in the height direction of the combination stove, providing sufficient space for the arrangement of pipes and keeping it away from the heat emitted by the stovetop 2000, thereby enhancing safety.

[0106] Combination Figure 6As shown, in some embodiments, the combination stove also includes an electronic control device 5000. The electronic control device 5000 ensures the normal operation of all components. For example, commands issued by the user operating the control device 1000 need to be transmitted to the electronic control device 5000 for processing before the electronic control device 5000 issues commands to control the oven 3000, stove 2000, etc. The electronic control device 5000 has a certain size, and for ease of installation, it is positioned behind the control device 1000, thus facilitating wiring between them. Specifically, the electronic control device 5000 can be fixed to the side wall of the frame 6000, thereby fully utilizing the space behind the control device 1000 and not occupying the space used for the air intake device 4000, achieving maximum utilization of space layout.
