DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0032] In order to make the above objectives, features and advantages of the present application more obvious and easy to understand, the specific embodiments of the present application are described in detail below with reference to the drawings. In the following description, a lot of specific details are set forth in order to give a full understanding of the present application. However, the present application can be implemented in many other ways different from those described herein, and those skilled in the art can make similar improvements without departing from the spirit of the present application, so the present application is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.

[0033] Reference is made to Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 4The cooking device 10 in an embodiment includes a cabinet 100, a first air duct 120, a first fan assembly 200, a door body 300, and a magnetron 700. The cabinet 100 is internally provided with a cooking cavity 160 with an open front side. The door body 300 is connected to the cabinet 100 to open and close the cooking cavity 160. The door body 300 is internally provided with a cooling air duct 310. The door body 300 is provided with an air inlet 311 in communication with the cooling air duct 310. The first air duct 120 has a first air inlet 116 and a first air outlet 113. The first air inlet 116 is in communication with the cooling air duct 310. The first fan assembly 200 includes a first motor 220 and a first fan blade 210. The first fan blade 210 is arranged in the first air duct 120. The first fan assembly 200 is used to drive airflow. The magnetron 700 is arranged at the first air outlet 113.

[0034] In use of the cooking device 10, the first fan assembly 200 can drive airflow. Since the first air duct 120 and the cooling air duct 310 are in communication through the first air inlet 116, cold air outside the cooking device 10 can enter the cooling air duct 310 through the air inlet 311, then enter the first air duct 120 through the first air inlet 116, and be discharged from the first air outlet 113. The magnetron 700 arranged at the air outlet can cool the magnetron 700, reduce the temperature of the magnetron 700, and ensure that the magnetron 700 is not affected by high temperature, thereby ensuring the service life of the magnetron 700. The air inlet 311 is arranged on the door body 300, and the airflow is sucked through the cooling air duct 310 of the door body 300, which can avoid the airflow being affected by the high temperature of the cabinet 100, ensure that the airflow is stable at a lower temperature, and effectively cool the magnetron 700. Further, the service life of the cooking device 10 is ensured. Meanwhile, the cooling air duct 310 in the door body 300 can also heat-insulate and cool the door body 300 to a certain extent, so that the user will not be scalded when touching the door body 300, and the comfort, safety, and reliability of the cooking device 10 are further improved.

[0035] The traditional embedded oven usually sets a first air inlet 116 on the back plate 153 or the side plate or the bottom plate 152 of the oven shell when dissipating heat from the magnetron 700. The external cooling air enters from the first air inlet 116 and then flows to the magnetron 700 to dissipate heat. However, the embedded oven is placed in a cabinet, and the cooling air temperature of the side and tail of the oven is higher than that of the front of the oven. The cooling air has poor heat dissipation effect. In addition, the gap between the oven and the cabinet is small, which easily causes problems such as poor air inlet and small air inlet. At the same time, the top, bottom and tail of the oven cavity are usually provided with heating pipes. The cooling air of the traditional oven enters from the door body 300 and then flows to the magnetron 700 through a long path. The cooling air absorbs heat near the cavity when flowing near the cavity, and the temperature becomes high, which reduces the heat dissipation effect of the magnetron 700. In the embodiment, the cooling air duct 310 is arranged in the door body 300, which effectively ensures that the airflow is in a low-temperature state. The first air duct 120 is arranged at the top of the box body 100, and the first air outlet 113 is arranged beside the magnetron 700, so that the airflow can effectively cool and cool the magnetron 700, and the heat dissipation effect of the magnetron 700 is ensured.

[0036] Referring to Figure 1 and Figure 2 In one embodiment, the door body 300 is provided with a partition plate 330, and the partition plate 330 divides the door body 300 into a cooling air duct 310 and a heat insulation space 320. The cooling air duct 310 is located on the front side of the partition plate 330, and the heat insulation space 320 is located on the rear side of the partition plate 330 and close to the cooking cavity 160. The cooking cavity 160 generates a large amount of high temperature when heating. The heat insulation space 320 is formed on the side of the door body 300 close to the cooking cavity 160, which can effectively block the high temperature in the cooking cavity 160 from being transmitted to the cooling air duct 310 on the outside of the door body 300, reduce the temperature of the door plate on the outside of the door body 300, prevent the temperature on the outside of the door body 300 from being too high to scald the user, and ensure the use comfort and safety of the cooking equipment 10. At the same time, the cooling air duct 310 is located on the side of the door body 300 away from the cooking cavity 160, which reduces the heat transfer from the cooking cavity 160 to the cooling air duct 310, ensures that the cooling air still maintains a low temperature after flowing through the cooling air duct 310, and directly blows to the magnetron 700 after flowing through the cooling air duct 310 and the first air duct 120, which greatly improves the heat dissipation effect of the cooling air on the magnetron 700.

[0037] In one embodiment, the box has an air outlet 135 in communication with external air, a second air duct 140 is further formed above the cooking cavity 160, the second air duct 140 has a second air inlet and a second air outlet, the second air outlet is in communication with the air outlet 135, the magnetron 700 has a heat dissipation channel penetrating through two sides, the first air outlet 113 is in communication with one side of the heat dissipation channel, and the second air inlet is in communication with the other side of the heat dissipation channel.

[0038] Referring to Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 , in one embodiment, the cooking device 10 further comprises a mounting plate 600 and a first air baffle assembly 110, the mounting plate 600 is arranged above the cooking cavity 160, the first air baffle assembly 110 is arranged on the mounting plate 600 and surrounds the mounting plate 600 to form the first air duct 120, and the first fan blade 210 is arranged in the first air baffle assembly 110. The width dimension of the first air baffle assembly 110 in the airflow direction tends to decrease from the first air inlet 116 to the first air outlet 113. The first air baffle assembly 110 can make the air volume more concentrated, and the magnetron 700 is arranged at one end of the first air baffle assembly 110 where the first air outlet 113 is arranged. The airflow gathered by the first air baffle assembly 110 can more stably and concentratedly cool the magnetron 700.

[0039] Referring to Figure 2 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 , in one embodiment, the first air baffle assembly 110 comprises a first air baffle part 111 and a second air baffle part 112, the first air baffle part 111 is arranged on the mounting plate 600, the first air baffle part 111 is in communication with the cooling air duct 310 of the door body 300 through the first air inlet 116, the top of the first air baffle part 111 is provided with the first air outlet 114, the head of the second air baffle part 112 is arranged on the first air outlet 114, the second air baffle part 112 is in communication with the first air baffle part 111 through the first air outlet 114, the first air outlet 113 is located on the tail of the second air baffle part 112, and the first fan assembly 200 is arranged at the first air outlet 114. The first air baffle part 111 and the second air baffle part 112 are arranged in layers, which is conducive to the airflow and also ensures the miniaturization of the cooking device 10, and improves the structural rationality and practicality of the cooking device 10.

[0040] Referring to Figure 4 and Figure 5In one embodiment, the first air guide part 111 is provided with a limiting column at one end of the first air guide opening 114. The second air guide part 112 is provided with a limiting groove at one end of the second air guide opening 115. The limiting column can be arranged in the limiting groove and abut against the inner wall of the limiting groove. The buckle and the protrusion are matched to ensure that the assembly between the first air guide part 111 and the second air guide part 112 is more stable. It is also convenient to disassemble, clean and maintain the first air guide part 111. At the same time, the limiting column can ensure that the first air guide part 111 and the second air guide part 112 can be more accurate and fast when assembled. The structural practicability of the cooking equipment 10 is improved, which is convenient for subsequent use and maintenance, and is conducive to prolonging the service life of the cooking equipment 10. Specifically, the number of buckles is at least two, and the number of protrusions corresponds to the number of buckles. Multiple buckles can improve the stability of the assembly between the first air guide part 111 and the second air guide part 112.

[0041] Referring to Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 6In one embodiment, the cooking device 10 further comprises a second air guide cover assembly 130 and a second fan assembly 400. The second air guide cover assembly 130 is arranged on the mounting plate 600, and a second air duct 140 is formed in the second air guide cover assembly 130. The second air guide cover assembly 130 comprises a third air guide part 131 and a fourth air guide part 132. The third air guide part 131 is arranged on the mounting plate 600. One end of the third air guide part 131 is an air suction port facing the magnetron 700. A third air guide port 133 is arranged at the top of the other end of the third air guide part 131. A fourth air guide port 134 is arranged at the tail of the fourth air guide part 132. The fourth air guide port 134 is arranged above the third air guide port 133 in a spaced manner. An air inlet gap is formed between the fourth air guide port 134 and the third air guide port 133. The front end of the fourth air guide part 132 is in communication with the air outlet 135. The first air guide part 111 and the fourth air guide part 132 are arranged in a spaced manner. The second fan assembly 400 is arranged at the connection between the third air guide port 133 and the fourth air guide port 134. The second fan assembly 400 comprises a second motor 420 and a second fan blade 410. The second motor 420 is arranged in one of the third air guide port 133 and the fourth air guide part 132. The second fan blade 410 is arranged in the other one of the third air guide port 133 and the fourth air guide part 132. The air suction port of the second air duct 140 is arranged at the first air outlet 113 of the magnetron 700 away from the first air duct 120. The second fan assembly 400 can make the airflow in the second air duct 140 flow. The second air duct 140 can draw away the high-temperature airflow near the magnetron 700 through the air suction port, thereby reducing the temperature of the magnetron 700. At the same time, since the first air outlet 113 and the air suction port are arranged on the opposite sides of the magnetron 700, the airflow blown out of the first air outlet 113 absorbs the temperature of the magnetron 700, and is then drawn into the second air duct 140 by the air suction port and discharged to the outside of the cabinet 100. The cooling efficiency of the magnetron 700 is improved, and the cooling effect of the magnetron 700 is further ensured. The width dimension of the second air guide cover assembly 130 in the direction of the airflow tends to increase from the air suction port to the air outlet 135. The second air guide cover assembly 130 can ensure that the second fan assembly 400 accurately draws the airflow around the magnetron 700, and ensure the heat dissipation efficiency of the magnetron 700. The fourth air guide part 132 is arranged on the first air duct 120. The fourth air guide part 132 and the first air duct 120 are arranged in a stacked manner. The heat dissipation efficiency of the magnetron 700 is ensured, the airflow is facilitated to flow, the miniaturization of the cooking device 10 is ensured, and the structural rationality and practicality of the cooking device 10 are improved.

The other end of the third air guide section 131 with the third air guide port 133 and the end of the fourth air guide section 132 with the fourth air guide port 134 are spaced apart to form an air intake gap. The third through hole 610 can be connected to the air intake gap. Airflow enters the first air guide channel 150 through the first through hole 170 via the air intake port 311. It flows through the bottom of the housing 100, passes through the second through hole 180 and enters the back of the housing 100. Then it flows out from the back of the housing 100 through the third through hole 610 to the vicinity of the air intake gap. Under the action of the second fan assembly 400, the airflow enters the second air duct 140 and is discharged to the outside through the air outlet 135.

[0048] Traditionally, the cooling airflow on the back of the cavity typically draws in cooling air from the rear panel 153 or the side panel of the outer casing. However, in this embodiment, the third airflow eliminates the air inlets on the rear panel 153 and the side panel, instead placing the air inlet at the lower part of the front panel of the cavity (i.e., the first through hole 170). Firstly, with the air inlet located on the front of the cavity, it's easier for the user to spot and remove cockroaches or other insects that enter. Secondly, the built-in oven is placed in a cabinet, where space is limited. When the cooking appliance 10 is operating, some heat is transferred to the cabinet, making the air temperature inside higher than the ambient temperature. If the cooling air were drawn in from the rear panel 153 or the side panel, the temperature would be too high, resulting in poor cooling. Therefore, placing the air inlet on the front of the cavity ensures lower-temperature cooling and better heat dissipation.

[0049] See Figure 2 In one embodiment, the cooking device 10 further includes a connecting pipe 157. An exhaust port 156 communicating with the interior of the cavity is provided on the rear wall of the cavity. One end of the connecting pipe 157 is connected to the exhaust port 156, and the other end of the connecting pipe 157 is connected to the tail of the fourth air guide section 132 and communicates with the second air duct 140. When the cooking device 10 is in use, under the action of the second fan assembly 400, steam in the cooking cavity 160 can reach the second air duct 140 from the exhaust port 156 through the connecting pipe 157, and is then discharged to the outside through the air outlet 135. Simultaneously, because the steam mixes with other airflows in the second air duct 140, the temperature of the steam is greatly reduced, preventing burns to the user when discharged to the outside, thus ensuring the safety and reliability of the cooking device 10.

[0050] See Figures 8 to 10In one embodiment, the cooking device 10 further includes a waveguide box 800. The waveguide box 800 is disposed on one side of the housing 100. One end of the waveguide box 800 is connected to the magnetron 700, and the other end of the waveguide box 800 is connected to the cooking cavity 160. A microwave inlet 840 is provided on the end of the waveguide box 800 connected to the magnetron 700. A microwave transmitter 710 is disposed inside the magnetron 700. The microwave transmitter is located inside the microwave inlet 840. A microwave outlet 830 is provided on the other end of the waveguide box 800 connected to the cooking cavity 160. A microwave stirring device is disposed at the microwave outlet 830. The magnetron 700 and the waveguide box 800 are connected by a connecting piece 850. The microwave stirring device includes a stirring motor 810 and a stirring blade 820. The motor shaft of the stirring motor 810 passes through the microwave outlet 830, and the stirring blade 820 is disposed in the cooking cavity 160 and connected to the motor shaft of the stirring motor 810.

[0051] In one embodiment, such as Figure 11 As shown, the cooking device 10 also includes a water tank assembly, which includes a water tank base 900 and a water tank 910 slidably connected to the water tank base 900. A micro switch 940 and a rotary motor 930 are arranged on the rear side of the water tank base 900. A rotating plate 920 is coaxially connected to the rotary motor 930, and the micro switch 940 and the rotating plate 920 are arranged adjacent to each other. When the rotating plate 920 is in its initial position, the contacts of the rotating plate 920 and the micro switch 940 are in contact. When the water tank 910 needs to be ejected, the computer board receives a signal and controls the rotating motor 930 to rotate. Driven by the motor, the rotating plate 920 leaves the contact of the micro switch 940 and rotates clockwise. During the rotation, the rotating plate 920 contacts the water tank 910 and pushes the water tank 910 to move a certain distance, thus realizing the automatic ejection of the water tank 910. After the rotating plate 920 rotates one revolution, it returns to the initial position and presses the contact on the micro switch 940 again, and the rotating motor 930 stops rotating.

[0052] In one embodiment, the cooking device 10 further includes a variable frequency power supply. The variable frequency power supply is disposed within the first air outlet 113 of the second air guide section 112. Airflow passing through the variable frequency power supply acts on the magnetron 700, allowing the first air duct 120 to simultaneously cool both the variable frequency power supply and the magnetron 700. It should be noted that the devices disposed at the first air outlet 113 include, but are not limited to, the magnetron 700 and the variable frequency power supply.

[0053] In the embodiment, when the cooking device 10 is used, the first fan blade 210 and the second fan blade 410 are started simultaneously, and after the airflow enters from the air inlet 311, the airflow passes through the cooling air duct 310 and the heat insulation space 320 to the first air inlet 116. The airflow enters the first air guide part 111 through the first air inlet 116, enters the second air guide part 112 through the first air guide part 114, the first fan blade 210, and the second air guide part 115, and then is blown to the magnetron 700 through the first air outlet 113 to cool the magnetron 700. The second fan blade 410 can suck away the high-temperature airflow around the magnetron 700 through the air suction port. The high-temperature airflow enters the third air guide part 131 through the air suction port, enters the fourth air guide part 132 through the third air guide part 133, the second fan blade 410, and the fourth air guide part 134, and is discharged to the outside environment of the cooking device 10 through the air outlet 135.
