[0027] like Figure 1-Figure 5As shown, the present invention provides a technical solution: an electric rice cooker with air pressure regulation, comprising a main unit 1 and a heating component 8, wherein an air inlet pipe 2 is arranged at the bottom of the main unit 1, and an air pump 3 is connected to the end of the air inlet pipe 2, a transparent glass outer cover 4 is arranged on the surface of the main unit 1, and a transparent glass liner 5 is embedded in the transparent glass outer cover 4, handles 6 are fixed on both sides of the outer surface of the transparent glass liner 5, a side channel 7 is arranged on one side of the inner side of the transparent glass outer cover 4, a heating component 8 is arranged inside the transparent glass liner 5, the heating component 8 comprises a heater 801 and an energy collecting cover 802, the outer wall of the heater 801 is sleeved with the energy collecting cover 802, and a hollow bracket 9 is arranged on the top of the inner wall of the energy collecting cover 802, a rice bucket 10 is arranged on the surface of the hollow bracket 9, and a connecting hole 11 is opened at the bottom of the rice bucket 10, grooves are opened on both sides of the top of the transparent glass liner 5, and handles 6 are adapted to extend from the inside of the groove, and the bottom of the side channel 7 is connected to the air outlet end of the air pump 3, The top of the side channel 7 is plugged and connected with the air inlet at the bottom of the handle 6, the rice bucket 10 is connected with the inside of the transparent glass liner 5 through the connecting hole 11 and the hollow bracket 9, and the inner diameter of the connecting hole 11 is smaller than the outer diameter of the rice grains, plug-in blocks 12 are fixed on both sides of the main unit 1, and the plug-in base 13 is plugged into the plug-in block 12, and the top of the plug-in base 13 is rotatably connected with an upper cover 14, and the bottom of the upper cover 14 is adapted to the rice bucket 10 and the top of the transparent glass liner 5, and the upper cover 14 is An exhaust valve 15 is embedded on the surface, and the number of the exhaust valves 15 is one. An air pressure sensor 16 is provided at the bottom of the upper cover 14, and the bottom detection end of the air pressure sensor 16 is located inside the rice bucket 10. A sealing ring is provided at the bottom edge of the upper cover 14 and the top edge of the transparent glass liner 5, and the upper cover 14 and the transparent glass liner 5 are tightly fitted through the sealing ring. A lock buckle is provided on the front of the upper cover 14, and the upper cover 14 is connected to the top lock buckle of the transparent glass liner 5 through the lock buckle;

[0028] The specific operation is as follows: first, take out the rice bucket 10 and add water to the inside of the transparent glass liner 5, and the water level is above the energy-gathering cover 802 and reaches the water level line, and then add rice or grains to the inside of the rice bucket 10, and then put the rice bucket 10 into the transparent glass liner 5. At this time, the rice bucket 10 is supported by the hollow bracket 9, and then the upper cover 14 is rotated to make it close to the transparent glass liner 5 and locked by the lock buckle. At this time, the inside of the transparent glass liner 5 is a closed space;

[0029] Heat is generated by the heater 801 to heat the water body. At the same time, the air pump 3 draws air through the air inlet pipe 2 and injects it into the side channel 7. The gas passes through the handle 6 along the side channel 7 and enters the transparent glass liner 5. Since the transparent glass liner 5 is a closed space, the transparent glass liner 5 is pressurized by injecting gas to push the water body, so that the water body passes through the hollow bracket 9 and the connecting hole 11 and enters the rice bucket 10 to increase the water level inside the rice bucket 10. The water body passes through the energy-gathering cover 802 during the flow process, and the heater 801 generates heat inside the energy-gathering cover 802 to quickly increase the water temperature. A probe is provided at the bottom of the upper cover 14 to photograph the type and quantity of rice or grains in the rice bucket 10 and monitor the water level. When the water level reaches the optimal adaptation height of the grain or rice, the air pump 3 stops pressurizing.

[0030] At the same time, the air pressure sensor 16 monitors the air pressure value inside the rice bucket 10 in real time. Based on the best matching air pressure for food, the host 1 automatically controls the switch of the air pump 3 and the exhaust valve 15 to adjust the air pressure in the rice bucket 10 in real time. By adjusting the air pressure, the water level can be adjusted, thereby changing the water-rice ratio of traditional rice, achieving different rice amounts, and only one water level line is required, thereby solving the problem that the amount of water added corresponding to different types and quantities of rice or grains is difficult to accurately control, so that the taste of cooked food is improved. In addition, the transparent glass liner 5 and the transparent glass cover 4 are both made of transparent high borosilicate glass. Compared with the traditional rice cooker, the present invention makes the internal working state of the rice cooker visualized;

[0031] After finishing cooking, the plug-in base 13 at the bottom can be separated from the plug-in block 12 by pulling up the upper cover 14 on the basis of opening the upper cover 14, so that the upper cover 14 can be removed separately, so as to clean the dead corners of the electric rice cooker of the present invention, and the plug-in base 13 and the plug-in block 12 are plug-connected, which is convenient for quickly and simply reinstalling the upper cover 14 after cleaning.

[0032] In summary, when the electric rice cooker with air pressure regulation is used, firstly, the rice bucket 10 is taken out and water is added into the transparent glass liner 5, and the water level is submerged in the energy-gathering cover 802 and reaches the water level line, and then rice or grains are added into the rice bucket 10, and then the rice bucket 10 is placed into the transparent glass liner 5, at which time the rice bucket 10 is supported by the hollow bracket 9, and then the upper cover 14 is rotated to make it airtightly attached to the transparent glass liner 5 and locked by the lock buckle, at which time the interior of the transparent glass liner 5 is a closed space;

[0033] Heat is generated by the heater 801 to heat the water body. At the same time, the air pump 3 draws air through the air inlet pipe 2 and injects it into the side channel 7. The gas passes through the handle 6 along the side channel 7 and enters the transparent glass liner 5. Since the transparent glass liner 5 is a closed space, the transparent glass liner 5 is pressurized by injecting gas to push the water body, so that the water body passes through the hollow bracket 9 and the connecting hole 11 and enters the rice bucket 10 to increase the water level inside the rice bucket 10. The water body passes through the energy-gathering cover 802 during the flow process, and the heater 801 generates heat inside the energy-gathering cover 802 to quickly increase the water temperature. A probe is provided at the bottom of the upper cover 14 to photograph the type and quantity of rice or grains in the rice bucket 10 and monitor the water level. When the water level reaches the optimal adaptation height of the grain or rice, the air pump 3 stops pressurizing.

[0034] At the same time, the air pressure sensor 16 monitors the air pressure value inside the rice bucket 10 in real time. Based on the best matching air pressure for food, the host 1 automatically controls the switch of the air pump 3 and the exhaust valve 15 to adjust the air pressure in the rice bucket 10 in real time, and the water level can be adjusted by adjusting the air pressure.
