[0040] Please refer to Figure 1 A feeding assembly 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention is used in a baking oven 1000. The feeding assembly 100 includes a hopper 10, a feeding assembly 20 and an elastic member 30. The hopper 10 has at least one blanking surface 16. The feeding assembly 20 includes a screw 22 disposed at the bottom of the hopper 10. One end of the elastic member 30 is fixedly disposed on at least one blanking surface 16, and the other end cooperates with the screw 22. The elastic member 30 is configured to be periodically moved by the screw 22 to drive the hopper 10 to vibrate.

[0041] The above-mentioned feeding assembly 100, by adding an elastic member 30 and cooperating with the screw 22, drives the hopper 10 to vibrate by moving the elastic member 30 through the screw 22, thereby destroying the equilibrium state of the combustible particles accumulated on the blanking surface 16, thereby preventing the combustible particles from accumulating on the blanking surface 16 without falling. On the contrary, the combustible particles can fall smoothly from the blanking surface 16 to the bottom of the hopper 10, and be sent into the fire cup (not shown) by the screw 22, preventing the combustion in the fire cup from being extinguished due to lack of combustible particles.

[0042] Specifically, in Figure 1In the illustrated embodiment, the hopper 10 may have a blanking surface 16. The blanking surface 16 may be an inclined surface with a slope. The blanking surface 16 may be formed with a through hole 17. Two through holes 17 may be provided and located near the top of the hopper 10. The hopper 10 may be fixedly connected to the oven 1000 at the top of the hopper 10 through the through holes 17. The hopper 10 may be disposed above the feeding assembly 20. The feeding assembly 20 is provided with a screw 22. The screw 22 may be disposed at the bottom of the hopper 10. The screw 22 may include a screw thread 26 and a rod body 24. The screw thread 26 may be spirally wound on the rod body 24. The feeding assembly 100 is provided with an elastic member 30. One end of the elastic member 30 may be fixedly connected to the blanking surface 16 and disposed near the bottom of the hopper 10. The other end of the elastic member 30 may cooperate with the screw thread 26 and abut against the screw thread 26. In one embodiment, the screw 22 can drive the screw thread 26 to rotate, and the screw thread 26 can periodically press the elastic member 30, causing the elastic member 30 to swing, thereby driving the hopper 10 to vibrate, thereby destroying the equilibrium state of the combustible particles accumulated on the blanking surface 16, thereby preventing the combustible particles from accumulating on the blanking surface 16 without falling. On the contrary, the combustible particles can fall smoothly from the blanking surface 16 to the bottom of the hopper 10, and be sent into the fire cup by the screw 22, preventing the combustion in the fire cup from being extinguished due to lack of combustible particles.

[0043] It should be noted that, in other embodiments, one blanking surface 16 may be provided with two, three or more elastic members 30 , and the elastic members 30 may also be provided on two, three or more blanking surfaces 16 , which is not specifically limited herein.

[0044] Please combine Figure 2 and Figure 3 In some embodiments, the hopper 10 includes a blanking portion 12 and a storage portion 18. The blanking portion 12 and the storage portion 18 are inverted cylindrical bodies. The blanking portion 12 has a smaller slope than the storage portion 18. The top of the storage portion 18 is connected to the bottom of the blanking portion 12. The blanking portion 12 includes at least one blanking surface 16. The screw 22 is arranged at the bottom of the storage portion 18.

[0045] In this way, by setting the blanking part 12 and the material storage part 18, the blanking part 12 has a small slope and a large space, so that more materials can be put in at one time, thereby improving efficiency. At the same time, the material storage part 18 has a large slope and is located at the bottom of the blanking part 12, so that materials can be stored. The screw 22 is arranged at the bottom of the material storage part 18, which can ensure that the screw 22 does not run idle, thereby improving feeding efficiency.

[0046] Specifically, in Figure 3 In the embodiment shown, the blanking portion 12 may be an inverted cylindrical body. Figure 2In the embodiment, the blanking section 12 may be provided with three blanking surfaces 16. The blanking surface 16 has a small slope, a long slope length and a large space, so more materials can be put in at one time, which is beneficial to improving efficiency. The material storage section 18 may be provided at the bottom of the blanking section 12, and the top of the material storage section 18 may be connected to the bottom of the blanking section 12. The material storage section 18 has a larger slope than the blanking section 12 and is located at the bottom of the blanking section 12, so that materials can be stored. A screw 22 is also provided at the bottom of the material storage section 18. In one embodiment, by providing the screw 22 at the bottom of the material storage section 18, it can be ensured that the screw 22 does not idle, thereby improving the feeding efficiency.

[0047] Please combine Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 In some embodiments, the blanking portion 12 and the storage portion 18 are inverted quadrangular pyramidal cylindrical bodies. The blanking portion 12 includes four inner side surfaces 13. The four inner side surfaces 13 include a first inner side surface 14 and three second inner side surfaces 15 located in the transmission direction of the screw 22. The slope of the three second inner side surfaces 15 is smaller than the slope of the first inner side surface 14. The three second inner side surfaces 15 are blanking surfaces 16.

[0048] In this way, the three blanking surfaces 16 can have a small slope and a large space, and the first inner side surface 14 is in the transmission direction of the screw 22, which can shorten the feeding distance and improve the feeding efficiency.

[0049] Specifically, in Figure 3 In the embodiment, the material-dropping part 12 and the material-storing part 18 are configured as inverted quadrangular pyramidal cylindrical bodies, which can promote the combustible particles to fall from the material-dropping part 12 into the material-storing part 18, thereby improving the feeding efficiency. Figure 1 In the illustrated embodiment, the blanking portion 12 may be provided with four inner side surfaces 13. The four inner side surfaces 13 may include a first inner side surface 14 and three second inner side surfaces 15. Figure 2 In the illustrated embodiment, the transmission direction of the screw 22 can be represented by V. The first inner side surface 14 can be arranged perpendicular to the V direction. The slope of the first inner side surface 14 is greater than the slope of the second inner side surface 15. The three second inner side surfaces 15 can be blanking surfaces 16. Two of the three blanking surfaces 16 can be symmetrically arranged on the blanking portion 12 and arranged adjacent to the first inner side surface 14. Another of the three blanking surfaces 16 is arranged on the blanking portion 12 opposite to the first inner side surface 14. Two of the three blanking surfaces 16 can be arranged between another of the three blanking surfaces 16 and the first inner side surface 14, so that the slope of the three blanking surfaces 16 can be small and the space can be large, and the first inner side surface 14 is in the transmission direction of the screw 22, which can shorten the feeding distance and improve the feeding efficiency.

[0050] In addition, it can be understood that in other embodiments, the blanking portion 12 may also be provided with four blanking surfaces 16 or another number of blanking surfaces 16, which may be adjusted according to specific circumstances and are not specifically limited herein.

[0051] Please combine Figure 3 In some embodiments, the feeding assembly 20 includes a driving member (not shown). The driving member is disposed at the bottom of the hopper 10. The driving member is connected to the screw rod 22 to drive the screw rod 22 to abut against or disengage from the elastic member 30.

[0052] In this way, the driving member can provide power to drive the screw 22 to rotate, and in the process of the screw 22 abutting against and separating from the elastic member 30, the hopper 10 is driven to vibrate.

[0053] Specifically, in Figure 3 In the illustrated embodiment, the driving member may be disposed at the bottom of the storage portion 18. The screw 22 is also disposed at the bottom of the storage portion 18. In one embodiment, the driving member may be connected to the rod body 24, and the rod body 24 may drive the screw thread 26 to rotate, so that the screw thread 26 may press against the elastic member 30 to allow the elastic member 30 to reach the maximum deformation amount. In one embodiment, the driving member is connected to the rod body 24 to drive the screw thread 26 to rotate, so that the screw thread 26 may be separated from the elastic member 30, and the elastic member 30 may elastically deform and return to its original state after being compressed, so that the blanking portion 12 may be vibrated to drive the hopper 10 to shake, so that the combustible particles may slide smoothly into the storage portion 18.

[0054] Please combine Figure 3 In some embodiments, the feed assembly 100 further includes a feed pipe 40 disposed at the bottom of the hopper 10. The screw 22 is disposed in the feed pipe 40 and a portion of the screw 22 is in contact with the wall of the feed pipe 40. The drive member is located outside the feed pipe 40. The feed pipe 40 is used to cooperate with the screw 22 to feed materials along the transmission direction of the screw 22 under the drive of the drive member.

[0055] In this way, the combustible particles can be transported along the driving direction of the screw 22 by cooperating with the feed pipe 40 and the screw 22, thereby avoiding a gap between the screw 22 and the feed pipe 40 and reducing the feeding efficiency.

[0056] Specifically, in Figure 3 In the embodiment, the feed assembly 100 includes a feed pipe 40. The feed pipe 40 can be arranged at the bottom of the hopper 10. The screw 22 can be arranged in the feed pipe 40. The screw teeth 26 can be arranged to fit with the tube wall of the feed pipe 40. In one embodiment, the driving member located outside the feed pipe 40 can drive the screw 22 to rotate, and then fit with the tube wall of the feed pipe 40 through the screw teeth 26, so that the combustible particles can be transported along the transmission direction of the screw 22, avoiding the existence of a gap between the screw 22 and the feed pipe 40, thereby reducing the feeding efficiency.

[0057] Please combine Figure 2In some embodiments, the width of the elastic member 30 is smaller than the pitch of the screw 22 .

[0058] In this way, the screw rod 22 can periodically move the elastic member 30 , which can prevent the screw pitch of the screw rod 22 from being too small, resulting in the elastic member 30 being unable to detach from the screw rod 22 .

[0059] Specifically, in Figure 2 In the illustrated embodiment, the width of the elastic member 30 may be represented by D1, and the pitch of the screw 22 may be represented by D2. The width D1 of the elastic member 30 may be smaller than the pitch D2 of the screw 22, so that the screw 22 can periodically move the elastic member 30, and the pitch of the screw 22 may be too small, so that the elastic member 30 cannot be separated from the screw 22.

[0060] Please combine Figure 1 and Figure 4 In some embodiments, the elastic member 30 includes a fixed section 32 fixedly disposed on at least one blanking surface 16, a connecting section 36 extending from one end of the fixed section 32 away from at least one blanking surface 16 toward the bottom of the material storage portion 18, and an action section 37 extending from one end of the connecting section 36 away from the fixed section 32 toward the direction of the screw 22. The elastic member 30 is used to press the action section 37 when the screw 22 approaches the elastic member 30 to achieve the maximum deformation of the action section 37. After the screw 22 is separated from the action section 37, the elastic member 30 can return to its original state so that the action section 37 drives the elastic member 30 to swing, thereby driving the hopper 10 to vibrate.

[0061] In this way, the structure can be simplified and have a better load-bearing effect in the structural arrangement. The screw rod 22 pressing against the elastic member 30 can generate a larger elastic potential energy.

[0062] Specifically, in Figure 4 In the illustrated embodiment, the elastic member 30 may be in a curved or bent shape. The elastic member 30 may include a fixed section 32, a connecting section 36, and an action section 37. The fixed section 32 may be fixedly connected to the blanking surface 16. The connecting section 36 may be configured to extend from one end of the fixed section 32 away from the blanking surface 16 toward the bottom of the storage portion 18. The action section 37 may be configured to extend from one end of the connecting section 36 away from the fixed section 32 toward the screw 22. In one embodiment, when the screw 22 rotates to drive the screw thread 26 to approach the elastic member 30, the screw thread 26 may press against the action section 37 to achieve the maximum deformation of the action section 37. In one embodiment, after the screw 22 rotates to drive the screw thread 26 to disengage from the action section 37, the elastic member 30 can return to its original state due to elastic deformation after being compressed, so that the action section 37 drives the elastic member 30 to swing, thereby driving the hopper 10 to vibrate, thereby making the structure simple and having a better load-bearing effect in the structural arrangement. The screw 22 presses against the elastic member 30 to generate a large elastic potential energy.

[0063] In addition, the elastic member 30 may include a spring sheet, which is thin, elastic, and tough, and is not prone to plastic deformation and is resistant to corrosion.

[0064] Please combine Figure 1 and Figure 4 In some embodiments, the action section 37 includes a first end 38 in a rolled shape, and the first end 38 is disposed at an end of the action section 37 away from the connecting section 36 . The first end 38 abuts against the screw 22 .

[0065] In this way, the rigidity and strength of the first end 38 of the elastic member 30 can be increased, and the wear caused by the first end 38 abutting against the screw rod 22 can be reduced to a certain extent, thereby extending the service life.

[0066] Specifically, in Figure 4 In the embodiment, the action section 37 includes a first end 38. The first end 38 may be in an open circular roll shape. The first end 38 may be disposed at an end of the action section 37 away from the connection section 36. In one embodiment, the screw rod 22 may drive the screw thread 26 to rotate, and the first end 38 may abut against the screw thread 26, and then the first end 38 in a roll shape may increase the rigidity and strength of the first end 38 of the elastic member 30, thereby reducing the wear caused by the first end 38 abutting against the screw rod 22 to a certain extent, and extending the service life.

[0067] Please combine Figure 1 and Figure 4 In some embodiments, a fixing hole 34 is formed at one end of the fixing section 32. The fixing section 32 is fixedly disposed through the fixing hole 34 so that the elastic member 30 is fixedly disposed on at least one blanking surface 16.

[0068] In this way, one end of the elastic member 30 can be fixed, and the other end can be periodically moved by the screw 22, so that the elastic member 30 drives the hopper 10 to vibrate.

[0069] Specifically, in Figure 4 In the illustrated embodiment, two fixing holes 34 are provided at one end of the fixing section 32 close to the blanking surface 16. The two fixing holes 34 can be symmetrically arranged at one end of the fixing section 32. The fixing hole 34 can be circular. The feeding assembly 100 further includes a screw 50. The screw 50 can be penetrated by the fixing hole 34. In one embodiment, the fixing section 32 can be penetrated by the fixing hole 34 through the screw 50, and then the fixing section 32 can be fixed on the blanking surface 16, so that the elastic member 30 can be fixed on the blanking surface 16. That is, by fixing the fixing section 32 of the elastic member 30, the action section 37 can be periodically toggled by the screw thread 26 of the screw rod 22, so that the elastic member 30 can drive the hopper 10 to vibrate.

[0070] Please refer to Figure 1A baking oven 1000 according to an embodiment of the present invention comprises a furnace body 200 and a feed assembly 100 according to any one of the above embodiments. The feed assembly 100 is disposed on the furnace body 200.

[0071] The above-mentioned oven 1000, by adding an elastic member 30 and cooperating with the screw 22, drives the hopper 10 to vibrate by moving the elastic member 30 through the screw 22, thereby destroying the equilibrium state of the combustible particles accumulated on the blanking surface 16, thereby preventing the combustible particles from accumulating on the blanking surface 16 without falling. On the contrary, the combustible particles can smoothly fall from the blanking surface 16 to the bottom of the hopper 10 and be sent into the fire cup by the screw 22, thereby preventing the combustion in the fire cup from being extinguished due to lack of combustible particles.

[0072] Specifically, the oven 1000 may include a pellet oven, which is a device that uses wood pellets as fuel to release heat through combustion, thereby performing barbecue. The oven 1000 also includes a grill 300. The grill 300 and the feed assembly 100 are both arranged on the oven body 200. Food can be placed on the grill 300. The feed assembly 100 can be equipped with an elastic member 30 and cooperate with the screw 22, and the elastic member 30 is moved by the screw 22 to drive the hopper 10 to vibrate, thereby destroying the equilibrium state of the combustible particles accumulated on the drop surface 16, thereby preventing the combustible particles from accumulating on the drop surface 16 without dropping, and on the contrary, the combustible particles can smoothly fall from the drop surface 16 to the bottom of the hopper 10, and are sent to the fire cup by the screw 22, so as to prevent the combustion in the fire cup from being extinguished due to the lack of combustible particles.

[0073] More specifically, the oven 1000 of the embodiment of the present application can be implemented with reference to the following examples. It should be pointed out that the following examples are only for facilitating the understanding and implementation of the technical solutions of the present application and should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of the present application.

[0074] The working process of the elastic member 30 can be divided into the following three stages:

[0075] In the first stage, Figure 3 In the embodiment shown, the elastic member 30 is pressed against the screw thread 26 to reach the maximum deformation. In the first stage, the rolled first end 38 of the elastic member 30 can be pressed against the screw thread 26, and the screw thread 26 rotates to compress the elastic member 30 to the maximum deformation position, at which time the elastic potential energy accumulated by the elastic member 30 can reach the maximum.

[0076] In the second stage, Figure 6 In the embodiment shown, the elastic member 30 is about to disengage from the screw thread 26. In the second stage, the screw thread 26 can slide over the width of the elastic member 30, and the elastic member 30 can maintain the maximum deformation state, and the elastic potential energy remains unchanged.

[0077] The third stage, Figure 7 In the illustrated embodiment, after the elastic member 30 is separated from the screw thread 26, the elastic potential energy can be released, thereby driving the elastic member 30 to swing back and forth. The mechanical energy generated by the swinging can be transmitted to the hopper 10 through the screw 50, and the hopper 10 can generate slight vibrations. The combustible particles accumulated on the hopper 10 will break the original equilibrium state due to the vibration, thereby preventing the combustible particles from accumulating on the hopper 10 without falling. On the contrary, the combustible particles can smoothly fall from the hopper 10 to the bottom of the hopper 10 and be sent into the fire cup by the screw 22. When the elastic potential energy of the elastic member 30 is consumed, the elastic member 30 can return to its original state, and with the periodic rotation of the screw 22, the elastic member 30 will also enter the next elastic deformation cycle.
