Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, not all of the embodiments.

When the combination of technical solutions is contradictory or cannot be implemented, it should be deemed that such combination of technical solutions does not exist and is not within the scope of protection required by this application.

[0043] The first aspect of the present application proposes a cooking device, which may be an oven with only a baking function or a steamer with only a steaming function, or a steam-oven with both baking and steaming functions, or a microwave oven with both baking, microwave and steaming functions. It can be understood that as long as it contains a baking function, it can be regarded as including an oven. In the following description, the cooking device will be described as an oven.

[0044] In some embodiments of the present application, Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 6As shown, the oven includes a first accommodating cavity 3300, a second accommodating cavity 3400, a flow equalizing plate 3200 and a guide plate 3700. The first accommodating cavity 3300 is provided with an air inlet 3221, and the first accommodating cavity 3300 receives airflow through the air inlet 3221. The second accommodating cavity 3400 is used to accommodate food (for example, food is placed in the second accommodating cavity 3400 through a baking tray 5000). That is, when food needs to be baked, the food needs to be placed in the second accommodating cavity 3400. After the food is baked, the food needs to be placed in the second accommodating cavity 3400. To remove food from the second accommodating chamber 3400, the flow equalizing plate 3200 is used to separate the second accommodating chamber 3400 from the first accommodating chamber 3300. The flow equalizing plate 3200 is provided with a plurality of air holes 3210. The guide plate 3700 is provided in the first accommodating chamber 3300. The guide plate 3700 extends from the air inlet 3221 and in a direction away from the air inlet 3221, thereby dividing the first accommodating chamber 3300 into a plurality of air cavities 3310. The air holes 3210 connect the second accommodating chamber 3400 with the air cavity 3310. By setting a guide plate 3700 in the first accommodating cavity 3300 to form a plurality of air cavities 3310, the guide plate 3700 can guide the airflow to each air cavity 3310, which is beneficial to the rapid distribution of the airflow in the first accommodating cavity 3300, so that the airflow is more uniform when flowing through the air hole 3210 to the second accommodating cavity 3400, which solves the problem of uneven airflow distribution to a certain extent, realizes more friendly heat exchange for food, and improves the cooking effect of the food.

[0045] Specifically, when the oven is working, the airflow is driven to circulate internally through the fan (hereinafter referred to as the cross-flow fan 6000). The fan draws the airflow in the second accommodating chamber 3400 and transports it to the first accommodating chamber 3300. The airflow passes through the air holes 3210 and continues to flow back to the second accommodating chamber 3400, making full use of the heat to achieve heat exchange with the food, thereby baking the food. During the circulation of airflow and before it flows to the food, the airflow needs to first enter the first accommodating chamber 3300. The first accommodating chamber 3300 has a certain spatial volume, so that it can accommodate a certain amount of airflow. When the airflow enters the first accommodating chamber 3300 from the air inlet 3221, since the flow area of ​​the air inlet 3221 is much smaller than that of the first accommodating chamber 3300, the airflow entering the first accommodating chamber 3300 from the air inlet 3221 is in a jet shape, that is, a relatively concentrated airflow is formed in the axial direction of the air inlet 3221, and part of the airflow diffuses and flows from the surrounding of the air inlet 3221. In other words, the part of the space corresponding to the axial direction of the air inlet 3221 is filled with airflow faster, while the part of the space not corresponding to the axial direction of the air inlet 3221 is filled with airflow relatively slowly through the diffusion effect of the airflow. Although the equalizing plate 3200 can have a certain equalizing effect on the airflow, it is precisely because the distribution of the airflow in the first accommodating chamber 3300 is uneven that the uniformity of the airflow needs to be improved.

[0046] To this end, in this embodiment, a guide plate 3700 is provided, and the guide plate 3700 is provided in the first accommodating cavity 3300 so as to divide the first accommodating cavity 3300 into a plurality of air cavities 3310. It can be understood that the "plurality" in this article means two or more, and the guide plate 3700 extends from the air inlet 3221, which is equivalent to dividing the vicinity of the air inlet 3221 into a plurality of areas. When the airflow leaves the air inlet 3221, the airflow is divided into a plurality of streams and flows to the corresponding air cavities 3310, so that each air cavity 3310 can be allocated with a corresponding airflow. Through the guiding effect of the guide plate 3700, the plurality of airflows still have a relatively high kinetic energy, so that each airflow can diffuse faster in the corresponding air cavity 3310, that is, the airflow distribution in the first accommodating cavity 3300 is more uniform, which is beneficial to the improvement of the uniformity of the airflow in the second accommodating cavity 3400.

[0047] It is understandable that the air inlet 3221 needs to be connected to the air duct 3600, which is a component for transmitting airflow, and the airflow has an air outlet 3610, and the air outlet 3610 is connected to the air inlet 3221, so as to achieve airflow transmission. The air inlet 3221 and the air outlet 3610 can be the same port, that is, the air outlet 3610 is relative to the air duct 3600, and the air inlet 3221 is relative to the first accommodating chamber 3300. In this embodiment, the air duct 3600 can be inserted into the air inlet 3221 for cooperation, and the air inlet 3221 realizes the installation of the air duct 3600. The contour of the air inlet 3221 forms a restriction on the air duct 3600. In this case, the airflow flows out from the air outlet 3610 and enters the first accommodating cavity 3300. However, since the air duct 3600 is inserted into the air inlet 3221, the airflow is also regarded as entering the first accommodating cavity 3300 from the air inlet 3221.

[0048] For example, combined with Figure 5 and Figure 6As shown, the axial direction of the air inlet 3221 intersects with the axial direction of the air vent 3210, the axial direction of the air vent 3210 is the up-down direction, and the axial direction of the air inlet 3221 is the front-back direction. The intersection here should be understood as that the axial direction of the air inlet 3221 intersects with the axial direction of the air vent 3210 in space. The axial direction of the air vent 3210 and the axial direction of the air inlet 3221 can be projected onto a plane, and the two projections intersect or the extended lines of the two projections intersect, that is, the axial direction of the air vent 3210 is non-parallel to the axial direction of the air inlet 3221. Preferably, the axial direction of the air inlet 3221 and the axial direction of the air vent 3210 are designed to be perpendicular to each other. The guide plate 3700 extends roughly in the direction from back to front. When the airflow leaves the air inlet 3221, it is immediately divided into several airflows under the guiding effect of the guide plate 3700 and flows into the corresponding air cavity 3310, so that it can diffuse more quickly in the corresponding air cavity 3310. Since the axial direction of the air inlet 3221 intersects with the axial direction of the air hole 3210, that is to say, the flow direction of the airflow flowing into the air cavity 3310 intersects with the axial direction of the air hole 3210, the airflow needs to make a turn to pass through the air hole 3210, which is more conducive to the diffusion of the airflow in the air cavity 3310 and avoids the airflow directly rushing out of the air hole 3210.

[0049] As the air flow continues to enter each air cavity 3310, the air pressure in each air cavity 3310 gradually increases, and then the air flow in the air cavity 3310 flows out through the air hole 3210 and enters the second accommodating cavity 3400. Since there are multiple air holes 3210, that is, each air cavity 3310 is correspondingly provided with multiple air holes 3210, the air flow in each air cavity 3310 can flow out from the multiple air holes 3210 and enter the second accommodating cavity 3400. The multiple air holes 3210 can form a larger coverage of the second accommodating cavity 3400. Under the premise of effective diffusion of the air flow in each air cavity 3310, the air flow can be more uniform when flowing out of different air holes 3210, that is, the air flow distribution at different positions of the second accommodating cavity 3400 is more uniform, thereby improving the baking effect of the food.

[0050] In some embodiments of the present application, Figure 7As shown, the guide plate 3700 includes a plurality of guide plates, and the aforementioned air cavity 3310 is formed between two adjacent guide plates 3700. Specifically, one guide plate 3700 may be provided, and under the premise of providing one guide plate 3700, the first accommodating cavity 3300 may be divided into two air cavities 3310. In the present embodiment, the guide plate 3700 includes a plurality of guide plates, and a plurality of guide plates 3700 means two or more guide plates. The number of guide plates 3700 is n, and n+1 air cavities 3310 can be formed, and n+1 air flows are formed correspondingly. With a larger number of air cavities 3310, the space of the air cavity 3310 is relatively smaller, that is, the space required for the air flow to diffuse is relatively smaller, and the air flow speed is relatively higher, so that the air flow can diffuse more efficiently in the air cavity 3310, and the distribution difference of the air flow in the same air cavity 3310 is reduced.

[0051] In some embodiments of the present application, Figure 7 As shown, the air cavity 3310 mentioned above is also formed between the side wall of the first accommodating cavity 3300 and the guide plate 3700, so that the space occupied by the first accommodating cavity 3300 is fully utilized.

[0052] For example, combined with Figure 7 As shown, the guide plate 3700 includes three guide plates 3700, which are arranged alternately. An air cavity 3310 is formed between the guide plate 3700 located on the far left and the side wall of the first accommodating cavity 3300, and an air cavity 3310 is also formed between the guide plate 3700 located on the far right and the side wall of the first accommodating cavity 3300. In this way, four air cavities 3310 are formed by setting three guide plates 3700.

[0053] In some embodiments of the present application, Figure 7 As shown, the flow equalizing plate 3200 is provided with a flange 3220 , and the flange 3220 constitutes the side wall of the first accommodating cavity 3300 , so that the air inlet 3221 can be conveniently provided on the flange 3220 , and the air cavity 3310 can be formed by cooperating with the guide plate 3700 .

[0054] Specifically, the flow equalizing plate 3200 can be prepared from a metal plate, and the flange 3220 is bent relative to the flow equalizing plate 3200. For example, the same metal plate can be used and the flow equalizing plate 3200 and the flange 3220 located around the flow equalizing plate 3200 can be formed by bending the metal plate, and the air hole 3210 can be formed by punching. The guide plate 3700 can be arranged on the flow equalizing plate 3200, for example, welded together with the flow equalizing plate 3200, so as to form an independent component, thereby improving the assembly efficiency of the oven. For example, as mentioned below, after the flow equalizing plate 3200 is installed inside the cavity 3100, it can cooperate with the top plate 3110 of the cavity 3100 to enclose the first accommodating cavity 3300.

[0055] In some embodiments of the present application, Figure 8 As shown, the guide plate 3700 includes a first guide portion 3710 , and the first guide portion 3710 is arranged to extend obliquely relative to the air inlet 3221 , thereby effectively dividing the airflow leaving the air inlet 3221 .

[0056] Specifically, the air inlet 3221 is arranged at the rear of the first accommodating cavity 3300 and on the right side. Along the left and right directions, the size of the air inlet 3221 is much smaller than that of the flow equalizing plate 3200. In order to enable the guide plate 3700 to divide the first accommodating cavity 3300 more evenly, the portion of the guide plate 3700 close to the air inlet 3221 is regarded as the first guide portion 3710. The first guide portion 3710 is inclined toward the left side from the air inlet 3221, and multiple first guide portions 3710 are radial, thereby realizing the division of the first accommodating cavity 3300 of a larger size.

[0057] In some embodiments of the present application, Figure 8 As shown, the guide plate 3700 includes a second guide portion 3720, and the second guide portion 3720 extends along the axial direction of the air inlet 3221. It can be understood that the second guide portion 3720 extends along the axial direction of the air inlet 3221, that is, it extends substantially along the axial direction of the air inlet 3221. Figure 8 As shown, the second guide portion 3720 extends along the front-to-back direction as a whole, so that the second guide portions 3720 of two adjacent guide plates 3700 are roughly parallel. The roughly parallel second guide portions 3720 make it easier to judge the size of each air cavity 3310, which is beneficial to the setting of the guide plate 3700.

[0058] For example, the first guides 3710 are arranged obliquely relative to the air inlet 3221, and the distance between the first guides 3710 is relatively small, and the main function is to divert the airflow leaving the air inlet 3221, while the distance between the second guides 3720 is relatively large and extends in the front-to-back direction, which makes it easier to calculate the size of the space between the second guides 3720, that is, to divide the first accommodating cavity 3300. Since the distance between the first guides 3710 is relatively small, the space between the first guides 3710 is also relatively small, which can reduce the impact on the size difference between the air cavities 3310. It is understandable that in order to reduce resistance, the design between the first guide 3710 and the second guide 3720 can be designed to be an arc-shaped transition.

[0059] In some embodiments of the present application, Figure 6 and Figure 7As shown, the air inlet 3221 is arranged toward one side of the first accommodating cavity 3300, which is more conducive to the structural arrangement inside the oven.

[0060] Specifically, since the air inlet 3221 needs to be connected to the corresponding air channel 3600, when the air inlet 3221 is disposed toward one side of the first accommodation cavity ( Figure 6 The air duct 3600 may be arranged on one side of the interior of the oven, so that the air duct 3600 can be shorter, avoid multiple bends and extensions, and reduce airflow resistance. In this way, the other side of the interior of the oven has more space for installing other components, and the installation flexibility of other components is stronger. This is because if the air inlet 3221 is not inclined to one side of the first accommodating cavity 3300, but corresponds to the middle position of the first accommodating cavity 3300, then the air duct 3600 also needs to be arranged in the middle position of the interior of the oven, so that the space on both sides of the air duct 3600 is disconnected, which is inconvenient to install other larger components.

[0061] In some embodiments of the present application, Figure 6 , Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, the aperture of the air hole 3210 close to the air inlet 3221 needs to be designed to be smaller than the aperture of the air hole 3210 far from the air inlet 3221 , so as to further improve the uniformity of the airflow flowing through the second accommodating cavity 3400 .

[0062] Specifically, when the air flow flows into the first accommodating chamber 3300, the air holes 3210 close to the air inlet 3221 will first come into contact with the air flow to allow the air flow to flow out, while the air holes 3210 far from the air inlet 3221 will come into contact with the air flow later. Therefore, the air flow rate of the air holes 3210 close to the air inlet 3221 will be larger, while the air flow rate of the air holes 3210 far from the air inlet 3221 will be relatively small. In order to further improve the distribution uniformity of the air flow when it flows into the second accommodating chamber 3400, this embodiment optimizes the size of the air holes 3210.

[0063] That is, the aperture of the air hole 3210 near the air inlet 3221 is designed to be smaller than the aperture of the air hole 3210 far from the air inlet 3221. Although the air hole 3210 near the air inlet 3221 is first in contact with the air flow and allows the air flow to pass through, and the air hole 3210 far from the air inlet 3221 is later in contact with the air flow and allows the air flow to pass through, since the aperture of the air hole 3210 near the air inlet 3221 is relatively small, and the aperture of the air hole 3210 far from the air inlet 3221 is relatively large, the air flow rate flowing out from the air hole 3210 near the air inlet 3221 and the air flow rate flowing out from the air hole 3210 far from the air inlet 3221 can be balanced, thereby further improving the uniformity of the air flow distribution in the second accommodating chamber 3400.

[0064] The aperture of the air hole 3210 near the air inlet 3221 mentioned above is designed to be smaller than the aperture of the air hole 3210 far from the air inlet 3221. It should be understood as follows: there are at least two air holes 3210 on the flow equalizing plate 3200, and lines are drawn between the two air holes 3210 and the air inlet 3221. If the length of one line is greater than the length of the other line, then the air hole 3210 corresponding to the longer line length is far from the air inlet 3221, and the air hole 3210 corresponding to the shorter line length is close to the air inlet 3221. By such a setting, the equalization of the air flow is further improved, so that the air flow is more evenly distributed in the second accommodating cavity 3400, and the food in different positions is heated evenly to the maximum extent, thereby improving the baking effect of the food.

[0065] In some embodiments of the present application, Figure 5 and Figure 7As shown, the oven includes a cross-flow fan 6000 and an air duct 3600, and the air duct 3600 is connected to the cross-flow fan 6000 and the first accommodating chamber 3300 respectively, and the cross-flow fan 6000 realizes the transmission of airflow through the air duct 3600. When the oven is working, the cross-flow fan 6000 drives the airflow to flow, and the airflow flows from the second accommodating chamber 3400 to the air duct 3600, thereby entering the first accommodating chamber 3300, and then flows to the second accommodating chamber 3400. Under the action of the cross-flow fan 6000, the airflow can form a circulation flow. The cross-flow fan 6000 can be designed to be as long as possible without interfering with other components, that is, the cross-flow fan 6000 can realize a long and narrow airflow under the premise of occupying a certain space volume, so that a larger range of the second accommodating chamber 3400 can be sucked, the flow of heat can be accelerated, and the heat exchange between the food can be accelerated. Moreover, through the setting of the cross-flow fan 6000, it is particularly suitable for installation in a relatively thin oven. As the length of the cross-flow fan 6000 increases, the corresponding cost increases. Therefore, in some embodiments, a cross-flow fan 6000 with a shorter length may be selected to reduce costs. Because the guide vane 3700 is provided, even if a cross-flow fan 6000 with a shorter length is selected, the size of the air inlet 3221 is reduced accordingly. However, the effective guiding effect of the guide vane 3700 can make the airflow evenly dispersed in the first accommodating chamber 3300.

[0066] In some embodiments of the present application, as shown in FIG5 , the crossflow fan 6000 includes a crossflow fan wheel 6100, which is arranged in the second accommodating chamber 3400, which is more conducive to the arrangement of the components. The crossflow fan 6000 includes a crossflow fan 6000 and a motor (not shown in the figure), and the motor drives the crossflow fan wheel 6100 to rotate, thereby driving the airflow. Since the second accommodating chamber 3400 is used to accommodate food, the second accommodating chamber 3400 occupies a larger space volume relative to the first accommodating chamber 3300, so the crossflow fan wheel 6100 is arranged in the second accommodating chamber 3400, so that there is enough space to install the crossflow fan wheel 6100, and the crossflow fan wheel 6100 can directly suck the airflow in the second accommodating chamber 3400, accelerate the airflow in the second accommodating chamber 3400, and further make the temperature distribution in the second accommodating chamber 3400 more uniform.

[0067] The crossflow fan 6000 also includes a mounting seat 6200. The crossflow impeller 6100 needs to be mounted in the mounting seat 6200, and one end of the air duct 3600 is inserted into the mounting seat 6200. Specifically, the design of the mounting seat 6200 provides a basis for the installation of the crossflow impeller 6100. The mounting seat 6200 forms a volute structure, so that the crossflow impeller 6100 can better suck airflow and guide the airflow. Since the airflow sucked by the crossflow impeller 6100 needs to be transmitted through the air duct 3600, the design of the mounting seat 6200 is also convenient for cooperation with the air duct 3600, so that the airflow is transmitted from the mounting seat 6200 to the air duct 3600. Since it is only necessary to drive the airflow inside the oven. The cross-flow blower 6000 and the air duct 3600 are arranged at the rear of the first accommodating chamber 3300 and the second accommodating chamber 3400, so that the cross-flow blower 6000 and the air duct 3600 can be hidden as much as possible to avoid being touched by users, thereby improving the aesthetics.

[0068] In some embodiments of the present application, Figures 5 to 7 As shown, the air inlet 3221 is designed to be flat. The airflow driven by the crossflow fan 6000 needs to be transmitted to the first accommodating chamber 3300 through the air duct 3600. It is precisely because the airflow formed by the crossflow fan 6000 is long and narrow that the airflow is long. Therefore, the air duct 3600 can also be designed to adapt to the length of the crossflow fan 6000, and better match the crossflow fan 6000, so that the air duct 3600 is flat. The so-called flat shape is a relatively long length and a relatively small width / height. In order to match the air duct 3600, in this embodiment, the air inlet 3221 is designed to be flat, which will be more conducive to the airflow being divided into various strands and entering the corresponding air cavity 3310.

[0069] For example, in the left-right direction, the air inlet 3221 and the air outlet 3610 have a larger length, and in the up-down direction, the air inlet 3221 and the air outlet 3610 have a relatively smaller height, so that the air inlet 3221 and the air outlet 3610 are flat. Of course, in other embodiments, the air inlet 3221 and the air outlet 3610 may not be symmetrical rectangles, but may be other irregular shapes, but as long as they have a relatively large length in one direction and a relatively small width / height in another direction, it will be sufficient.

[0070] In some embodiments of the present application, Figure 4 and Figure 5As shown, the oven includes a cavity 3100, and the flow equalizing plate 3200 is arranged inside the cavity 3100, thereby dividing the interior of the cavity 3100 into a first accommodating cavity 3300 and a second accommodating cavity 3400, which facilitates the formation of the first accommodating cavity 3300 and the second accommodating cavity 3400. The flow equalizing plate 3200 divides the interior of the cavity 3100 into the first accommodating cavity 3300 and the second accommodating cavity 3400 in a variety of ways.

[0071] For example, the oven includes a shell 1000, the shell 1000 wraps the cavity 3100, and the shell 1000 and the cavity 3100 are arranged alternately, so that there is a certain space between the shell 1000 and the cavity 3100, so that other components of the oven, such as an electric control module, etc., can be placed between the shell 1000 and the cavity 3100. Of course, in other embodiments, the shell 1000 may not be provided, or the shell 1000 does not necessarily wrap the cavity 3100, but is arranged side by side with the cavity 3100. The cavity 3100 is a hollow structure, including a top plate 3110, a bottom plate 3120, a side plate and a rear plate 3150. It can be understood that, generally speaking, the oven is formed as a cube as a whole, so the cavity 3100 is also formed as a cube, then there is a left side plate 3130 and a right side plate 3140 between the top plate 3110 and the bottom plate 3120, and the left side plate 3130 and the right side plate 3140 are collectively referred to as side plates, and the rear plate 3150 is arranged between the top plate 3110 and the bottom plate 3120, and between the left side plate 3130 and the right side plate 3140, so that the space enclosed by the cavity 3100 is open to the front, that is, the open end of the cavity 3100 constitutes an opening 3500, and the oven has a door body 2000, and the door body 2000 can be opened and closed, thereby realizing the opening and closing of the opening 3500.

[0072] In this embodiment, the flow balancing plate 3200 is connected to the side wall of the cavity 3100, specifically, the flow balancing plate 3200 is connected to the left plate 3130 and the right plate 3140. It can be understood that the connection between the flow balancing plate 3200 and the side plates (left plate 3130, right plate 3140) can be a direct connection or an indirect connection, as long as the flow balancing plate 3200 can be fixed to the side plates (left plate 3130, right plate 3140). In this way, the flow balancing plate 3200 and the top plate 3110 cooperate to enclose the first accommodating cavity 3300, and at this time, the guide plate 3700 is respectively abutted against the flow balancing plate 3200 and the top plate 3110, thereby dividing the air cavity 3310. By connecting the flow equalizing plate 3200 and the side wall of the cavity 3100, the upper space of the cavity 3100 is fully utilized to make the first accommodating cavity 3300 as large as possible, and the corresponding size of the flow equalizing plate 3200 can also be designed to be larger. As mentioned above, generally speaking, the cavity 3100 is relatively square. By installing the flow equalizing plate 3200 in this way, the flow equalizing plate 3200 can form a larger coverage of the second accommodating cavity 3400 from top to bottom. Since the size of the flow equalizing plate 3200 is larger, the number of air holes 3210 set on the flow equalizing plate 3200 can also be more, so that the multiple air holes 3210 can form a larger coverage of the food from top to bottom, and then the distribution of the air flow flowing out of the air holes 3210 is more uniform.

[0073] In some embodiments of the present application, Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the equalizing plate 3200 is arranged above the food. In this way, the air vents 3210 are also located above the food, further ensuring the baking effect of the food. For example, the first accommodating chamber 3300 is arranged above the second accommodating chamber 3400, or the first accommodating chamber 3300 is arranged at an upper position of the second accommodating chamber 3400. The orientation in this article is based on the normal placement of the oven. Since the equalizing plate 3200 separates the first accommodating chamber 3300 and the second accommodating chamber 3400, after the food is placed in the second accommodating chamber 3400, the equalizing plate 3200 is located above the food. When the oven is working, the airflow has a certain high temperature, and the high temperature makes the airflow tend to float upward. When the airflow flows out from the air cavity 3310 through the air hole 3210, the airflow gradually fills the second accommodating cavity 3400 from top to bottom. In the process of the airflow filling from top to bottom and before reaching the food, the airflow has enough space and time to achieve further mixing and enhance the effect of uniform distribution. When the airflow reaches the surface of the food, it ensures that the food is heated evenly to the maximum extent.

[0074] In some embodiments of the present application, Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown, the heating of the airflow is achieved through the heating tube 4000, and the heating tube 4000 is installed below the equalizing plate 3200. When the airflow flows out from the multiple air holes 3210, an air curtain can be formed. It is precisely because the heating tube 4000 is arranged below the equalizing plate 3200 that the air curtain formed by the airflow can quickly take away the heat emitted by the heating tube 4000 and carry the heat to the food to exchange heat with the food. Since the food needs to be placed in the second accommodating cavity 3400, and the heating tube 4000 is also arranged in the second accommodating cavity 3400, it is conducive to maximizing the use of the heat emitted by the heating tube 4000 and avoiding heat waste.

[0075] Multiple bends are formed between the two ends of the heating tube 4000, so that the heating tube 4000 can form a larger coverage in the second accommodating cavity 3400, thereby reducing the number of heating tubes 4000, thereby improving the installation efficiency. That is, when the heating tube 4000 forms multiple bends, the heating tube 4000 can occupy a larger spatial range in the second accommodating cavity 3400, so that the airflow can be heated at multiple positions in the second accommodating cavity 3400, thereby improving the heating efficiency. It can be understood that the multiple paths referred to here mean at least two paths. Since the heating tube 4000 is bent, a larger coverage can be achieved, so the number of heating tubes 4000 can be reduced, thereby reducing costs, and since the heating tube 4000 needs to be installed and fixed, reducing the number of heating tubes 4000 also improves the installation efficiency of the product.

[0076] The second aspect of the present application discloses an integrated stove, which includes a cooking device of the above embodiment. The cooking device can be an oven with only a baking function or a steamer with only a steaming function, or a steam oven with both baking and steaming functions, or a microwave oven with both baking, microwave and steaming functions. The so-called integrated stove, for example, can combine a stove, a range hood and an oven to form a combined household appliance. The stove, the range hood and the oven can be used separately without affecting each other. The stove, the range hood and the oven are integrated together. Compared with independent stoves, range hoods and ovens, the integrated stove can save space more effectively, making the integrated stove more and more popular. It is understandable that the integrated stove can be integrated with other types of household appliances in addition to the integrated stove, the range hood and the oven, which will not be repeated here. The oven included in the integrated stove of this embodiment adopts the technical solution of the above embodiment, so it at least has the beneficial effects brought by the technical solution of the above embodiment, which will not be repeated here.
