Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of small household appliance technology, and more specifically, to a cooking appliance. Background Technology

[0002] In related technologies, a stirring component with a rotating shaft extending laterally is installed in a cooking appliance with a stir-frying function, which can fully stir the food in the cooking cavity and improve the cooking effect.

[0003] To facilitate user operation, the pot body of cooking utensils is generally installed in the base in a vertically removable manner. The direction in which the user picks up or puts down the pot is perpendicular to the extension direction of the rotation axis of the stirring component. Therefore, when the user picks up or puts down the pot, it is generally necessary to disengage the stirring component from the corresponding drive structure.

[0004] Currently, cooking appliances in related technologies can use a button structure to disengage the drive mechanism from the stirring component. When the user needs to remove the pot, they only need to press the button to take the pot out of the base. However, the above-mentioned cooking appliances also have drawbacks. The user needs to hold down the button continuously to keep the drive mechanism and stirring component in the disengaged state, meaning the user only has one hand left to remove the pot, which is inconvenient, especially when there is a lot of food in the pot, making it very difficult for the user to operate. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The main objective of this invention is to provide a cooking utensil to solve the problem of inconvenience for users when taking out the pot in related technologies.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides a cooking appliance, comprising: a base having a receiving cavity; a pot body removably disposed within the receiving cavity; a stirring structure rotatably disposed within the pot body, the stirring structure having a rotating shaft disposed in a transverse direction; a lid covering the pot; a drive structure disposed within the base, the output shaft of the drive structure extending in a transverse direction and capable of drivingly engaging with the rotating shaft; a transmission structure retractably disposed on the output shaft and capable of rotating synchronously with the output shaft, the transmission structure having a driving position for driving the rotating shaft to rotate and a limiting position for separating from the rotating shaft; and a first locking structure movably disposed within the base and capable of moving the transmission structure from the driving position to the limiting position and locking the transmission structure in the limiting position.

[0007] By applying the technical solution of this invention, the stirring structure is rotatably mounted inside the pot. A driving structure and a transmission structure are provided within the base. When the transmission structure is in the driving position, it drives the stirring structure to rotate, thus stirring the food and achieving an automatic cooking function. Specifically, a first locking structure is also provided within the base. When cooking is complete and the pot needs to be removed, the user only needs to use the first locking structure to drive the transmission structure from the driving position to the limit position and lock it in the limit position. At this time, the user can remove the pot from the base with both hands without continuously operating the first locking structure, making it convenient for the user. Therefore, the technical solution of this application effectively solves the problem of inconvenience for users when removing the pot in related technologies.

[0008] Furthermore, the cooking appliance also includes a second locking structure disposed within the base. This second locking structure has a locking position that engages with the first locking structure and an unlocking position that separates from it. When the first locking structure moves the transmission structure to a limit position, the second locking structure engages with the first locking structure to lock the transmission structure in that limit position. By locking the transmission structure in the limit position through the engagement between the second and first locking structures, the user can remove the pot from the base with both hands without continuously operating the first locking structure, thus simplifying the user experience.

[0009] Furthermore, the first locking structure includes a first locking hook, and the second locking structure includes a second locking hook, the second locking hook being capable of locking with the first locking hook. The transmission structure is locked in a limited position through the locking engagement between the first and second locking hooks, offering the advantage of a simple structure.

[0010] Furthermore, the second locking structure includes a rocker arm located below the first locking structure and a first elastic member disposed below the rocker arm. The first end of the rocker arm is rotatably connected to the base, and a second locking hook is disposed at the second end of the rocker arm. The two ends of the first elastic member abut against the rocker arm and the base respectively to apply an upward resisting force to the rocker arm, thereby keeping the second locking structure in the locked position. The rocker arm is rotatably connected to the base, eliminating the need for an additional limiting structure to restrict the rocker arm's movement direction, thus simplifying the internal structure of the base. The first elastic member ensures that the second locking structure remains in the locked position when no external force is applied. When this transmission structure moves to the limiting position, the second locking structure can lock the first locking structure, thereby keeping the transmission structure in the limiting position, facilitating subsequent pot removal operations by the user.

[0011] Furthermore, a stop block is provided on the first end of the swing arm to cooperate with the stop of the base body to limit the upward swing amplitude of the swing arm. The stop block can limit the maximum upward swing amplitude of the swing arm, preventing the swing arm from swinging too upward at an angle that would cause the second locking hook to be above the first locking hook, making it impossible to achieve the locking engagement between the first and second locking hooks, and preventing the second locking hook from blocking the first locking hook, thus preventing the first locking structure from moving further.

[0012] Furthermore, the first locking structure is provided with a stepped portion, and the transmission structure is provided with a raised edge portion. The stepped portion and the raised edge portion stop with each other, so that the first locking structure can drive the transmission structure from the driving position to the limiting position. When the stepped portion and the raised edge portion stop with each other, the first locking structure moves in the lateral direction, which drives the transmission structure from the driving position to the limiting position, thereby realizing the driving of the transmission structure.

[0013] Furthermore, the first locking structure includes a first sleeve, and the transmission structure includes a second sleeve movably sleeved on the output shaft and rotatably inserted inside the first sleeve. A protruding edge is disposed on the outer wall of the second sleeve, and a stepped portion is disposed on the inner wall of the first sleeve. The first locking structure drives the transmission structure through the stepped portion and the protruding edge, which has the advantages of simple structure and reliable drive.

[0014] Furthermore, the first locking structure also includes a guide rod connected to the first sleeve, and a guide structure is provided on the base. The guide rod passes through the guide structure to allow the first locking structure to move in the lateral direction. Through the cooperation between the guide rod and the guide structure, the movement direction of the first locking structure can be restricted, allowing it to move only in the lateral direction. In addition, the first locking structure can be driven by connecting an operating mechanism (specifically a pressing structure and a swing rod) to the guide rod.

[0015] Furthermore, the cooking appliance also includes a pressing structure and a swing rod disposed within the base. The pressing structure is vertically oriented with its top protruding upwards from the base. The swing rod connects the pressing structure and the first locking structure to convert the vertical movement of the pressing structure into the lateral movement of the first locking structure. When the pot needs to be removed, the user only needs to press the pressing structure to move the transmission structure from the driving position to the limit position, offering the advantage of simple operation. The vertical orientation of the pressing structure and its upward protrusion from the base facilitate user operation.

[0016] Furthermore, the first end of the swing rod is located below the pressing structure and abuts against it. The second end of the swing rod is provided with a linkage pin, and the first locking structure is provided with a linkage groove. The linkage pin is rotatably disposed in the linkage groove and can slide along the linkage groove. The swinging motion of the swing rod is converted into the lateral movement of the first locking structure through the interlocking linkage pin and the linkage groove, thus preventing jamming.

[0017] Furthermore, the transmission structure also features a clearance mechanism that separates it from the rotating shaft. When the transmission structure is in the limit position, the distance between it and the rotating shaft is greater than when it is in the clearance position. The first locking structure has a guide ramp on the side facing the pot. When the pot is placed into the base, the rotating shaft abuts against the guide ramp, causing the first locking structure to move the transmission structure from the driving position to the clearance position. When lowering the pot, the rotating shaft abuts against the guide ramp and pushes the first locking structure and the transmission structure away from the rotating shaft, causing the transmission structure to move to the clearance position, thus clearing the rotating shaft and allowing the pot to be lowered smoothly.

[0018] Furthermore, the transmission structure also includes a second elastic element disposed between the output shaft and the second sleeve. After the pot body is placed in position, the second sleeve moves from the avoidance position to the driving position under the action of the second elastic element, and the transmission structure and the rotating shaft are engaged.

[0019] Furthermore, the second sleeve includes a first cylindrical section, a second cylindrical section, and a connecting cylindrical section disposed between the first and second cylindrical sections. When the transmission structure is in the driving position, the first cylindrical section is inserted into the rotating shaft. The end of the first cylindrical section away from the second cylindrical section has an end wall. A second elastic element is disposed between the end wall and the output shaft, and a protruding edge is disposed on the outer side wall of the connecting cylindrical section. When neither the rotating shaft nor the first locking structure applies a force to the transmission structure to move it to or maintain it in the limit position, the transmission structure will be maintained in the driving position or moved from the limit position to the driving position and maintained in the driving position under the action of the second elastic element.

[0020] Furthermore, the cooking appliance also includes a transmission rod disposed within the base and located between the pot body and the swing arm. When the pot body is within the base, the pot body and the first end of the transmission rod abut against each other, and the second locking structure remains in the locked position under the action of the first elastic element. When the pot body leaves the base, the second end of the transmission rod engages with the swing arm and overcomes the resisting force of the first elastic element, driving the swing arm to swing downward, thereby switching the second locking structure from the locked position to the unlocked position. The transmission rod links the placement state of the pot body to the position of the second locking structure. That is, when the pot body is not placed, the second locking structure is always in the unlocked position, preventing the second and first locking structures from being locked together and thus preventing the transmission structure from resetting to the driving position. After the pot body is placed, the second locking structure remains in the locked position. If the user needs to remove the pot, they only need to operate the first locking structure to move the transmission structure to the limit position, and the second locking structure will lock the first locking structure, thus keeping the transmission structure in the limit position. The user can then remove the pot with both hands, making it convenient for use.

[0021] Furthermore, the cooking appliance also includes a third elastic element disposed between the base and the transmission rod and located below the transmission rod. The third elastic element abuts upward against the first end of the transmission rod, causing the second end of the transmission rod to move the second locking structure from the locked position to the unlocked position and remain in the unlocked position. The abutting force of the third elastic element is greater than that of the first elastic element. Because the abutting force of the third elastic element is greater than that of the first elastic element, when the pot body leaves the base, the transmission rod, driven by the third elastic element, can overcome the elastic force of the first elastic element, causing the second locking structure to move from the locked position to the unlocked position and remain in the unlocked position.

[0022] Furthermore, the second locking structure also includes a connecting rod located at the second end of the rocker arm and extending downwards. The transmission rod is a lever structure, and the second end of the lever structure is driven to connect with the connecting rod to move the second locking structure from the locked position to the unlocked position. By setting a lever structure between the pot body and the second locking structure, the second locking structure can remain in the locked position when the pot body is placed in the base. The above structure has the advantage of simple structure.

[0023] Furthermore, the second end of the lever structure is movably connected to the connecting rod. This movable connection between the lever structure and the connecting rod reduces the precision requirements for the second locking structure and the transmission rod, allowing the second locking structure to swing via the lever structure while preventing jamming between the lever structure and the connecting rod.

[0024] Furthermore, a notch is provided at the second end of the transmission rod, and the connecting rod passes through the notch. A stop block is provided at the lower end of the connecting rod, which can cooperate with the stop on the lower surface of the transmission rod. The stop block can cooperate with the stop on the lower surface of the transmission rod to prevent the connecting rod from disengaging from the transmission rod, so that the connecting rod is always in a position that can be driven by the transmission rod.

[0025] Furthermore, the swing arm includes: a first swing arm, the first end of which is located below the pressing structure and abuts against it; a second swing arm, the first end of which is connected to the second end of the first swing arm, and a linkage pin is disposed at the second end of the second swing arm. The second swing arm and the first swing arm form an obtuse angle. When the transmission structure is in the driving position, the second swing arm is inclined relative to the vertical direction toward the first locking structure. When the transmission structure is in the limiting position, the second swing arm is inclined relative to the vertical direction toward a direction away from the first locking structure; and a pivot is disposed at the connection between the first and second swing arms. The obtuse angle between the first and second swing arms reduces the force required for the user to drive the swing arm and move the first locking structure using the pressing structure, making operation easier. During the process of the swing arm moving the first locking structure from the locking position to the limiting position, the vertical movement of the free end of the second swing arm is small, thus allowing for a smaller width dimension of the linkage groove.

[0026] Furthermore, the cooking appliance also includes a transmission rod disposed within the base, and a second locking hook disposed at the second end of the transmission rod. When the pot body is located within the base, the pot body abuts against the first end of the transmission rod, and the second locking structure is in the locked position. When the pot body leaves the base, the second locking structure switches from the locked position to the unlocked position.

[0027] Furthermore, the cooking appliance also includes a transmission rod disposed within the base. The second locking structure includes a rocker arm located below the first locking structure. The first end of the rocker arm is rotatably connected to the base, and a second locking hook is disposed at the second end of the rocker arm. When the pot is located within the base, the pot and the first end of the transmission rod abut against each other, and the transmission rod pushes the rocker arm upward to position the second locking structure in the locked position. When the pot leaves the base, the rocker arm falls to switch the second locking structure from the locked position to the unlocked position. Attached Figure Description

[0045] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 The cooking appliance of this embodiment includes: a base 10, a pot body 20, a stirring structure 30, a driving structure 40, a transmission structure 50, a first locking structure 61, and a lid 80. The base 10 has a receiving cavity; the pot body 20 is removably disposed within the receiving cavity; the stirring structure 30 is rotatably disposed within the pot body 20, and the stirring structure 30 has a rotating shaft 31 arranged in a transverse direction; the lid 80 covers the pot body 20; the driving structure 40 is disposed within the base 10, and the output shaft 41 of the driving structure 40 extends in a transverse direction and can drive and cooperate with the rotating shaft 31; the transmission structure 50 is telescopically disposed on the output shaft 41 and can rotate synchronously with the output shaft 41, and the transmission structure 50 has a driving position that drives and cooperates with the rotating shaft 31 to drive the rotating shaft 31 to rotate, and a limiting position that separates from the rotating shaft 31; the first locking structure 61 is movably disposed within the base 10 and can move the transmission structure 50 from the driving position to the limiting position and lock the transmission structure 50 in the limiting position.

[0046] Applying the technical solution of this embodiment, the stirring structure 30 is rotatably disposed within the pot body 20, and the base 10 is provided with a driving structure 40 and a transmission structure 50. When the transmission structure 50 is in the driving position, the driving structure 40 can drive the stirring structure 30 to rotate to stir the food, thereby realizing the automatic cooking function. Specifically, the base 10 is also provided with a first locking structure 61. When the cooking is finished and the pot needs to be removed, the user only needs to drive the transmission structure 50 from the driving position to the limit position through the first locking structure 61 and lock the transmission structure 50 in the limit position. At this time, the user can use both hands to remove the pot body 20 from the base 10 without continuously operating the first locking structure 61, which is convenient for the user. Therefore, the technical solution of this embodiment can effectively solve the problem of inconvenience for users when removing the pot in related technologies.

[0047] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, in this embodiment, the cooking appliance also includes a second locking structure 62 disposed within the base 10. The second locking structure 62 has a locking position that can lock into the first locking structure 61 and an unlocking position that can be separated from the first locking structure 61. When the first locking structure 61 drives the transmission structure 50 to move to the limit position, the second locking structure 62 can lock into the first locking structure 61 to lock the transmission structure 50 in the limit position. By locking the transmission structure 50 in the limit position through the locking engagement between the second locking structure 62 and the first locking structure 61, the user can remove the pot body 20 from the base 10 with both hands without continuously operating the first locking structure 61, making it convenient for the user.

[0048] Specifically, such as Figures 1 to 5 As shown, the first locking structure 61 includes a first locking hook 611, and the second locking structure 62 includes a second locking hook 621. The second locking hook 621 can lock into the first locking hook 611. The transmission structure 50 is locked in the limited position by the locking engagement between the first locking hook 611 and the second locking hook 621, which has the advantage of simple structure.

[0049] like Figures 1 to 5 as well as Figure 8 As shown, the second locking structure 62 includes a rocker arm 622 located below the first locking structure 61 and a first elastic member 623 disposed below the rocker arm 622. The first end of the rocker arm 622 is rotatably connected to the base 10. A second locking hook 621 is disposed at the second end of the rocker arm 622. The two ends of the first elastic member 623 abut against the rocker arm 622 and the base 10 respectively to apply an upward abutting force to the rocker arm 622, so that the second locking structure 62 is held in the locked position. Specifically, the rocker arm 622 is rotatably connected to the base 10, eliminating the need for an additional limiting structure to restrict the movement direction of the rocker arm 622, thus simplifying the internal structure of the base 10. The first elastic member 623 ensures that the second locking structure 62 can remain in the locked position when no external force is applied. When the transmission structure 50 moves to the limit position, the second locking structure 62 can lock the first locking structure 61, thereby keeping the transmission structure 50 in the limit position, facilitating the user's subsequent pot removal operation. Specifically, in this embodiment, the first elastic element 623 is a spring, which applies an upward pushing force to the rocker arm 622.

[0050] Specifically, in this embodiment, a guide ramp is provided between the first locking hook 611 and the second locking hook 621. When the first locking structure 61 moves in the lateral direction, the guide ramp between the first locking hook 611 and the second locking hook 621 engages with the first locking hook 611, allowing the second locking hook 621 to avoid the first locking hook 611. After the first locking hook 611 passes the second locking hook 621, the second locking hook 621 rebounds under the action of the pushing force of the first elastic member 623, thereby achieving a locking engagement between the second locking hook 621 and the first locking hook 611, preventing the first locking structure 61 from retracting, and thus allowing the transmission structure 50 to remain in the limited position, facilitating the user to remove the pot body 20 from the base 10. In this embodiment, both the first locking hook 611 and the second locking hook 621 are provided with guide ramps. In embodiments not shown in the figures, guide ramps may also be provided only on the first locking hook or the second locking hook.

[0051] like Figures 1 to 5 as well as Figure 8 As shown, in this embodiment, a stop 624 is provided on the first end of the swing arm 622, which can cooperate with the stop of the seat 10 to limit the upward swing amplitude of the swing arm 622. The stop 624 can limit the maximum upward swing amplitude of the swing arm 622, preventing the swing arm 622 from swinging too upward at an angle that would cause the second locking hook 621 to be above the first locking hook 611, making it impossible to achieve the locking engagement between the first locking hook 611 and the second locking hook 621, and preventing the second locking hook 621 from blocking the first locking hook 611 so that the first locking structure 61 cannot continue to move.

[0052] like Figures 1 to 5 , Figure 7 as well as Figure 10 As shown, in this embodiment, the first locking structure 61 is provided with a stepped portion 612, and the transmission structure 50 is provided with a protruding edge portion 51. The stepped portion 612 and the protruding edge portion 51 cooperate with each other to enable the first locking structure 61 to drive the transmission structure 50 from the driving position to the limiting position. With the stepped portion 612 and the protruding edge portion 51 cooperating, when the first locking structure 61 moves in the lateral direction, it drives the transmission structure 50 from the driving position to the limiting position, thus achieving the driving of the transmission structure 50. The first locking structure 61 drives the transmission structure 50 through the stepped portion 612 and the protruding edge portion 51, which has the advantages of simple structure and reliable driving.

[0053] like Figures 1 to 5 , Figure 7 as well as Figure 10As shown, the first locking structure 61 includes a first sleeve 613, and the transmission structure 50 includes a second sleeve 52 movably sleeved on the output shaft 41 and rotatably inserted inside the first sleeve 613. A protruding edge 51 is provided on the outer wall of the second sleeve 52, and a stepped portion 612 is provided on the inner wall of the first sleeve 613. Specifically, a stepped hole is provided inside the first sleeve 613, and the stepped surface of the stepped hole forms the aforementioned stepped portion 612. Of course, the stepped portion can also be formed in other ways; for example, a protruding ring can be provided on the inner wall of the first sleeve to form the stepped portion.

[0054] like Figures 1 to 7 As shown, the first locking structure 61 also includes a guide rod 614 connected to the first sleeve 613. A guide structure 11 is provided on the base 10, and the guide rod 614 passes through the guide structure 11 to allow the first locking structure 61 to move laterally. Through the cooperation between the guide rod 614 and the guide structure 11, the movement direction of the first locking structure 61 can be restricted, allowing it to move only laterally. Furthermore, the guide rod 614 can be connected to an operating mechanism (specifically, a pressing structure 71 and a swing rod 72) to drive the first locking structure 61. Specifically, as... Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, in this embodiment, the cross-section of the guide rod 614 is a cross shape, which ensures the strength of the rod structure. The guide structure 11 includes intersecting first guide plates 111 and second guide plates 112. There are multiple first guide plates 111 arranged in parallel. Each first guide plate 111 has a guide opening that matches the cross-sectional shape of the guide rod 614. The guide rod 614 passes through the guide opening. The second guide plate 112 is located on the opening side of the guide opening. Thus, the guide opening and the second guide plate 112 together limit and guide the guide rod 614. The guide structure 11 is set as a split structure. When assembling the cooking appliance, the guide rod 614 is first inserted through the guide opening, and then the second guide plate 112 is installed, which facilitates the assembly of the first locking structure 61 into the base 10.

[0055] like Figure 1 , Figure 3 as well as Figure 6As shown, the cooking appliance also includes a pressing structure 71 and a swing rod 72 disposed within the base 10. The pressing structure 71 is arranged vertically, and its top protrudes upward from the base 10. The swing rod 72 connects the pressing structure 71 and the first locking structure 61 to convert the vertical movement of the pressing structure 71 into the horizontal movement of the first locking structure 61. When it is necessary to remove the pot, the user only needs to press the pressing structure 71 to move the transmission structure 50 from the driving position to the limiting position, and the transmission structure 50 will be held in the limiting position by the action of the first locking structure 61 and the second locking structure 62. Specifically, in this embodiment, the pressing structure 71 is arranged vertically, and its top protrudes upward from the base 10 for convenient user operation. Of course, in other feasible embodiments, the pressing structure can also extend horizontally, in which case the user needs to operate the pressing structure in the horizontal direction.

[0056] like Figure 3 As shown, the pressing structure 71 includes a mounting bracket 712 fixedly connected to the base 10, a pressing cap 711 disposed above the mounting bracket 712, a pressing rod 713 fixedly connected to the pressing cap 711 and movably passing through the mounting bracket 712, and a fourth elastic member 714 disposed between the mounting bracket 712 and the pressing cap 711. The mounting bracket 712 is provided with a receiving space with a top opening, and the pressing cap 711 is movably disposed in the receiving space. The base 10 is provided with a through-hole structure, and the pressing cap 711 passes through the through-hole structure. The lower end of the pressing cap 711 is provided with an anti-disengagement edge that can cooperate with the stop of the through-hole structure to prevent the pressing cap 711 from disengaging from the base 10. The through-hole structure and the mounting bracket 712 limit the range of movement of the pressing cap 711 in the vertical direction. The fourth elastic element 714 is sleeved on the outer periphery of the pressing rod 713 and abuts against the pressing cap 711 and the mounting bracket 712 respectively. When the user no longer applies force to the pressing cap 711, the pressing cap 711 will rebound under the action of the fourth elastic element 714. The mounting bracket 712 is provided with a retaining ring structure, and the fourth elastic element 714 is partially located within the retaining ring structure. The retaining ring structure can limit and guide the fourth elastic element 714, so that it can be kept within the retaining ring structure, ensuring the stability of the force exerted by the fourth elastic element 714 on the pressing cap 711. Specifically, in this embodiment, the fourth elastic element 714 is a spring. The cross-section of the pressing rod 713 is also cross-shaped to ensure the strength of the pressing rod 713.

[0057] like Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 11As shown, the first end of the swing rod 72 is located below the pressing structure 71 and abuts against the pressing structure 71. The second end of the swing rod 72 is provided with a linkage pin 721. The first locking structure 61 is provided with a linkage groove 615. The linkage pin 721 is rotatably disposed in the linkage groove 615 and can slide along the linkage groove 615. When the user presses down on the pressing structure 71, the pressing structure 71 drives the swing rod 72 to swing. The linkage pin 721 located at the second end of the swing rod 72 drives the first locking structure 61 to move in the lateral direction. The swing rod 72 can convert the vertical movement of the pressing structure 71 into the lateral movement of the first locking structure 61. Specifically, the linkage groove 615 is a long groove structure (i.e., the length of the linkage groove 615 is greater than the width of the linkage groove 615). Through the mutual cooperation of the linkage pin 721 and the linkage groove 615, the swing of the swing rod 72 is converted into the lateral movement of the first locking structure 61, which can prevent jamming. Specifically, the linkage groove 615 is provided on the guide rod 614.

[0058] like Figure 3 and Figure 11 As shown, the swing lever 72 includes: a first swing arm 722, the first end of which is located below the pressing structure 71 and abuts against it; a second swing arm 723, the first end of which is connected to the second end of the first swing arm 722, and a linkage pin 721 is disposed at the second end of the second swing arm 723. The second swing arm 723 and the first swing arm 722 form an obtuse angle. When the transmission structure 50 is in the driving position, the second swing arm 723 is inclined relative to the vertical direction toward the first locking structure 61. When the transmission structure 50 is in the limiting position, the second swing arm 723 is inclined relative to the vertical direction toward a direction away from the first locking structure 61; and a pivot part 724 is disposed at the connection between the first swing arm 722 and the second swing arm 723. The obtuse angle between the first swing arm 722 and the second swing arm 723 reduces the force required for the user to drive the swing lever 72 to swing and move the first locking structure 61 using the pressing structure 71, making operation easier for the user. As the swing arm 72 moves the first locking structure 61, causing the transmission structure 50 to move from the locked position to the limit position, the second swing arm 723 moves from the direction of... Figure 3 The position of the middle pair tilted to the lower left was moved to the side. Figure 3 The angled position in the lower right direction makes the vertical movement of the free end of the second swing arm 723 (i.e., the linkage pin 721) smaller during movement, and thus the width dimension of the linkage groove 615 can also be set smaller.

[0059] like Figures 1 to 7As shown, the transmission structure 50 also has a clearance position separated from the rotating shaft 31. When the transmission structure 50 is in the limit position, the distance between it and the rotating shaft 31 is greater than the distance between them when the transmission structure 50 is in the clearance position. The first locking structure 61 has a guide slope 616 on the side facing the pot body 20. When the pot body 20 is placed into the base 10, the rotating shaft 31 abuts against the guide slope 616, causing the first locking structure 61 to drive the transmission structure 50 from the driving position to the clearance position. When lowering the pot body 20, the rotating shaft 31 can abut against the guide slope 616 and push the first locking structure 61 and the transmission structure 50 to move away from the rotating shaft 31, causing the transmission structure 50 to move to the clearance position, thereby clearing the rotating shaft 31 and allowing the pot body 20 to be lowered smoothly.

[0060] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, the transmission structure 50 also includes a second elastic element 53 disposed between the output shaft 41 and the second sleeve 52. During the process of placing the pot body 20 into the base 10, the rotating shaft 31 will first abut against the guide inclined surface 616 and push the guide inclined surface 616 so that the first locking structure 61 drives the transmission structure 50 to avoid the rotating shaft 31. After the pot body 20 is placed in place, the transmission structure 50 moves from the avoidance position to the driving position under the action of the second elastic element 53, and the transmission structure 50 and the rotating shaft 31 are engaged.

[0061] In this embodiment, the avoidance position (not shown) is an instantaneous position, and the transmission structure 50 will not remain in this position. The distance between the transmission structure 50 and the rotating shaft 31 when it is in the limit position is greater than the distance between the transmission structure 50 and the rotating shaft 31 when it is in the avoidance position. That is, as the transmission structure 50 moves away from the rotating shaft 31, it will first reach the avoidance position, and then move a certain distance before reaching the limit position. Specifically, when the pot body 20 is placed into the base 10, the rotating shaft 31 pushes the transmission structure 50 to move to the avoidance position. At this time, the transmission structure 50 is separated from the rotating shaft 31 but has not yet reached the limit position.

[0062] In this embodiment, when the user places the pot, the rotating shaft 31 pushes the first locking structure 61 and the transmission structure 50 to move laterally. After the pot 20 is in place, the transmission structure 50 moves to the driving position under the action of the second elastic element 53 to achieve a plug-in engagement with the rotating shaft 31. This avoids interference between the rotating shaft 31 and the first locking structure 61 and the transmission structure 50, ensuring that the user can smoothly place the pot. Furthermore, by providing the guide slope 616 and the second elastic element 53, the user does not need to perform any operations other than placing the pot 20, making it convenient for the user.

[0063] like Figures 1 to 5 as well as Figure 10As shown, the second sleeve 52 includes a first cylindrical section 521, a second cylindrical section 522, and a connecting cylindrical section 523 disposed between the first cylindrical section 521 and the second cylindrical section 522. When the transmission structure 50 is in the driving position, the first cylindrical section 521 is inserted into the rotating shaft 31. The end of the first cylindrical section 521 away from the second cylindrical section 522 has an end wall 524. A second elastic element 53 is disposed between the end wall 524 and the output shaft 41. A protruding edge 51 is disposed on the outer side wall of the connecting cylindrical section 523. When neither the rotating shaft 31 nor the first locking structure 61 applies a force to the transmission structure 50 to move it away from the driving position, the transmission structure 50 will remain in the driving position under the action of the second elastic element 53, or move from the limiting position or the avoidance position to the driving position and remain in the driving position. The second sleeve 52 is provided with a connecting hole 54. In this embodiment, the connecting hole 54 is a "D" shaped hole, and the output shaft 41 passes through the connecting hole 54 and is anti-rotationally connected to the connecting hole. The output shaft 41 is provided with a sliding groove extending along its length, and the second cylindrical section 522 is provided with a mounting hole. The second sleeve 52 is telescopically connected to the output shaft 41 by a pin structure passing through the sliding groove and the mounting hole.

[0064] like Figure 5 As shown, in this embodiment, the rotating shaft 31 includes a shaft body 311 and a sleeve structure 312 fixedly connected to the shaft body 311 and sleeved around the outer periphery of the shaft body 311. When the transmission structure 50 is in the driving position, the first cylindrical section 521 is inserted into the sleeve structure 312 and can drive the rotating shaft 31 to rotate synchronously. Of course, in other embodiments, the shaft body can also be directly inserted into the transmission structure.

[0065] like Figures 1 to 6 as well as Figure 9As shown, the cooking appliance also includes a transmission rod 63 disposed within the base 10 and located between the pot body 20 and the swing rod 622. When the pot body 20 is located within the base 10, the first end of the transmission rod 63 abuts against it, and the second locking structure 62 remains in the locked position under the action of the first elastic member 623. When the pot body 20 leaves the base 10, the second end of the transmission rod 63 engages with the swing rod 622, overcomes the abutting force of the first elastic member 623, and drives the swing rod 622 to swing downward, thereby switching the second locking structure 62 from the locked position to the unlocked position. The placement state of the pot body 20 is associated with the position of the second locking structure 62 through the transmission rod 63. That is, when the pot body 20 is not placed, the second locking structure 62 is always in the unlocked position, and when the pot body 20 is placed, the second locking structure 62 is always in the locked position. In this way, when the user needs to remove the pot, they only need to operate the first locking structure 61 to move the transmission structure 50 to the limit position. The second locking structure 62 can then lock the first locking structure 61, thereby keeping the transmission structure 50 in the limit position. The user can then remove the pot with both hands, making it convenient for them. After the user removes the pot 20, the second locking structure 62 moves to the unlocked position under the action of the transmission rod 63, meaning it can no longer lock the first locking structure 61. The transmission structure 50 will then move to the driving position under the action of the second elastic element 53, preventing the second locking structure 62 and the first locking structure 61 from remaining locked together and preventing the transmission structure 50 from returning to the driving position.

[0066] In this embodiment, a positioning protrusion is provided on the shaft portion 311. The pot body 20 includes a pot body and a rotating shaft cover 21 disposed on the pot body. The shaft portion 311 passes through the pot body and the rotating shaft cover 21. The positioning protrusion is sandwiched between the pot body and the rotating shaft cover 21, so that the shaft portion 311 can only rotate relative to the pot body 20 and will not move relative to the pot body 20. A protrusion 632 is provided at the first end of the transmission rod 63. When the pot body 20 is placed into the base 10, the rotating shaft cover 21 will push downward against the protrusion 632, thereby causing the transmission rod 63 to swing.

[0067] like Figures 1 to 6The cooking appliance also includes a third elastic member 64 disposed between the base 10 and the transmission rod 63 and located below the transmission rod 63. The third elastic member 64 abuts upward against the first end of the transmission rod 63, causing the second end of the transmission rod 63 to move the second locking structure 62 from the locked position to the unlocked position and remain in the unlocked position. The abutting force of the third elastic member 64 is greater than the abutting force of the first elastic member 623. Specifically, in this embodiment, the third elastic member 64 is a spring, which applies an upward force to the first end of the transmission rod 63, causing the second end of the transmission rod 63 to press down on the second locking structure 62. Since the abutting force of the third elastic member 64 is greater than the abutting force of the first elastic member 623, when the pot body 20 leaves the base 10, the transmission rod 63 can overcome the elastic force of the first elastic member 623 under the drive of the third elastic member 64, causing the second locking structure 62 to move from the locked position to the unlocked position and remain in the unlocked position.

[0068] like Figure 2 , Figure 5 and Figure 8 As shown, the second locking structure 62 also includes a connecting rod 625 disposed at the second end of the swing rod 622 and extending downward. The transmission rod 63 is a lever structure, and the second end of the lever structure is drivenly connected to the connecting rod 625 to drive the second locking structure 62 from the locked position to the unlocked position. Specifically, by setting a lever structure between the pot body 20 and the second locking structure 62, the second locking structure 62 can be kept in the locked position when the pot body 20 is placed inside the seat 10. The above structure has the advantage of simple structure.

[0069] like Figure 2 , Figure 5 and Figure 8 As shown, the second end of the lever structure is movably connected to the connecting rod 625. This movable connection between the lever structure and the connecting rod 625 reduces the precision requirements for the second locking structure 62 and the transmission rod 63, allowing the second locking structure 62 to swing via the lever structure while preventing jamming between the lever structure and the connecting rod 625.

[0070] like Figure 2 , Figure 5 and Figure 8As shown, the second end of the transmission rod 63 has a notch 631, and the connecting rod 625 passes through the notch 631. The lower end of the connecting rod 625 has a stop block 626 that can cooperate with the lower surface of the transmission rod 63. The stop block 626 can cooperate with the lower surface of the transmission rod 63 to prevent the connecting rod 625 from disengaging from the transmission rod 63, so that the connecting rod 625 is always in a position that can be driven by the transmission rod 63. The second locking structure 62 includes a swing rod 622 and a connecting rod 625 that are connected to each other and set at an angle. The lower end of the connecting rod 625 has a stop block 626. The second end of the transmission rod 63 has a notch 631, and the connecting rod 625 passes through the notch 631. The above structure facilitates the assembly between the transmission rod 63 and the second locking structure 62.

[0071] In this embodiment, the second locking structure 62 is rotatably disposed within the seat 10. The first locking structure 61 is locked or unlocked by its vertical movement during rotation. Since the second locking structure 62 also moves in the lateral direction during rotation, the connecting rod 625 and the stop block 626 of the second locking structure 62 cooperate with each other through the notch, so that the connecting rod 625 and the stop block 626 have a certain space to move in the lateral direction, which can prevent the transmission rod 63 and the second locking structure 62 from jamming.

[0072] In this embodiment, the arrangement of the stop block 624, the first elastic element 623 and the stop block 626 enables the swing rod 622 to swing only within a preset range, thereby realizing the function of the second locking structure 62 avoiding or locking the first locking structure 61.

[0073] The specific steps for placing and removing the pot body 20 of the cooking appliance in this embodiment are as follows:

[0074] When the pot body 20 is not placed in the seat 10, the third elastic member 64 abuts against the first end of the transmission rod 63, causing the first end of the transmission rod 63 to tilt upward. At this time, the second end of the transmission rod 63 drops and overcomes the abutting force of the first elastic member 623, so that the second locking structure 62 can remain in the unlocked position.

[0075] As the pot body 20 is placed into the base 10, the rotating shaft 31 pushes against the first locking structure 61 during the downward movement of the pot body 20, causing the transmission structure 50 to move laterally to the avoidance position. After the pot body 20 is in place, the transmission structure 50 moves from the avoidance position to the driving position under the action of the second elastic member 53. This enables the rotating shaft 31 and the transmission structure 50 to be engaged, thereby driving the stirring structure 30 to rotate through the driving structure 40, achieving the stir-frying function. At the same time, when the pot body 20 is in place, it applies a downward force to the transmission rod 63 to overcome the pushing force of the third elastic member 64, making the second end of the transmission rod 63 flush with the first end or the second end of the transmission rod 63 tilted upward. The second locking structure 62 rotates upward to the locking position under the action of the third elastic member 64, so that the second locking structure 62 can lock with the first locking structure 61 and lock the transmission structure 50.

[0076] When it is necessary to remove the pot, the user operates the pressing structure 71, which causes the first locking structure 61 to move the transmission structure 50 to the limit position. The second locking structure 62 can lock the first locking structure 61 and thus lock the transmission structure 50, keeping it in the limit position. At this time, the user can remove the pot. During the process of the user removing the pot body 20, the upward movement of the pot body 20 no longer applies force to the first end of the transmission rod 63. The first end of the transmission rod 63 tilts upward under the action of the third elastic member 64, and the second end of the transmission rod 63 descends, allowing the second locking structure 62 to remain in the unlocked position.

[0077] In an embodiment not shown in the figure, two structures that drive the second locking structure to move in position, different from the above embodiments, are also provided, as follows:

[0078] The first type of structure that moves the second locking structure includes a transmission rod disposed within the base, and a second locking hook disposed at the second end of the transmission rod. When the pot is inside the base, the pot abuts against the first end of the transmission rod, and the second locking structure is in the locked position. When the pot leaves the base, the second locking structure switches from the locked position to the unlocked position. This design simplifies the overall structure of the second locking structure and the structure that moves the second locking structure. When the pot is placed in or removed, the transmission rod drives the second locking hook to switch positions, thereby locking or unlocking the transmission structure.

[0079] The second type of structure that moves the second locking structure includes a transmission rod disposed within the base. The second locking structure includes a swing rod located below the first locking structure. The first end of the swing rod is rotatably connected to the base, and a second locking hook is disposed at the second end of the swing rod. When the pot is located within the base, the pot abuts against the first end of the transmission rod, and the transmission rod pushes upward against the swing rod, thus placing the second locking structure in the locked position. When the pot leaves the base, the swing rod falls, causing the second locking structure to switch from the locked position to the unlocked position. The above-described method uses the transmission rod in conjunction with the gravity of the swing rod to drive the swing rod to swing, eliminating the need for a reset component. The second locking hook directly locks or unlocks the transmission structure by pushing against the swing rod. In this embodiment, the cooking appliance is a multi-functional cooking appliance with a stir-fry function. Of course, in embodiments not shown in the figures, the cooking appliance can also be a rice cooker, pressure cooker, low-pressure rice cooker, soymilk maker, food processor, stir-fry machine, slow cooker, multi-functional pot, etc.

[0080] In the description of this invention, it should be understood that the orientation or positional relationship indicated by directional terms such as "front, back, up, down, left, right", "horizontal, vertical, horizontal" and "top, bottom" is generally based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings, and is only for the convenience of describing this invention and simplifying the description. Unless otherwise stated, these directional terms do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be construed as a limitation on the scope of protection of this invention; the directional terms "inner" and "outer" refer to the inner and outer contours relative to the outline of each component itself.

[0081] For ease of description, spatial relative terms such as "above," "on top of," "on the upper surface of," "above," etc., are used herein to describe the spatial positional relationship of a device or feature as shown in the figures to other devices or features. It should be understood that spatial relative terms are intended to encompass different orientations in use or operation beyond the orientation of the device as described in the figures. For example, if the device in the figures were inverted, a device described as "above" or "on top of" other devices or structures would subsequently be positioned as "below" or "under" other devices or structures. Thus, the exemplary term "above" can include both "above" and "below." The device may also be positioned in other different ways (rotated 90 degrees or in other orientations), and the spatial relative descriptions used herein will be interpreted accordingly.

[0082] Furthermore, it should be noted that the use of terms such as "first" and "second" to define components is merely for the purpose of distinguishing the corresponding components. Unless otherwise stated, the above terms have no special meaning and therefore should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of this invention.

[0083] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the invention. Various modifications and variations can be made to the present invention by those skilled in the art. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included within the scope of protection of the present invention.
