Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the field of air fryers, and in particular to an electric steamer with good steaming effect. Background Art
[0002] The traditional electric steamer usually includes a steamer body and multiple steaming racks. The steamer body is suitable for generating high-temperature steam and passing it into the steaming racks, and the multiple steaming racks are suitable for being stacked on the steamer body. Although a large amount of food can be cooked at the same time by stacking the multiple steaming racks on the steamer body, since the high-temperature steam is transferred layer by layer from bottom to top, not only is the transfer speed slow, but the heat loss is also serious during the transfer process, resulting in low overall heating efficiency of the electric steamer and slow cooking speed; at the same time, the stacking of multiple steaming racks also makes it not only cumbersome for users to take and put down the lower steaming rack, but also causes a large amount of steam heat to be lost if the steaming rack is taken and put down during cooking, affecting cooking efficiency and cooking effect; in addition, since the high-temperature steam is transferred layer by layer from bottom to top, the steam will transfer the taste of the food in the lower steaming rack to the upper layer during the transfer process, causing the taste of the food to be mixed, resulting in poor cooking effect and poor user experience. Summary of the invention
[0003] The present application provides an electric steamer with good steaming effect, so as to solve the technical problems of poor steaming effect and poor user experience of existing electric steamers.
[0004] In order to solve the above technical problems, the present invention provides an electric steamer with good steaming effect, comprising: a machine base, in which a steam chamber is provided; a steamer, which is detachably arranged on the machine base, and when the steamer is arranged on the machine base, the inner chamber of the steamer is connected with the steam chamber; a steam system, which is arranged on the machine base, and the steam system is connected with the steam chamber and supplies steam to the steam chamber; a hot air system, which is arranged on the machine base, and the hot air system is connected with the steam chamber and supplies high-temperature airflow to the steam chamber. In the electric steamer, by adding a hot air system on the basis of a traditional electric steamer, that is, by supplying a high-temperature airflow into the steam chamber through the hot air system, the steam in the steam chamber can be reheated, and the reheated high-temperature steam is introduced into the steamer to heat the food, which can greatly improve the steaming effect and efficiency of the food.
[0005] In an optional embodiment, the hot air system includes a hot air chamber, a hot air fan and a heating pipe are provided in the hot air chamber, and the hot air chamber is connected to the steam chamber.

By arranging the hot air system and the steamer on both sides of the steam cavity respectively, not only can the high-temperature airflow flowing from the hot air system into the steam cavity be consistent with the flow direction of the high-temperature steam flow flowing from the steam cavity into the steamer, but also the high-temperature steam can efficiently enter the steamer, thereby improving the efficiency of steam cooking; in addition, arranging the hot air system and the steamer relative to each other can also make the center of gravity of the entire electric steamer product close to the middle, thereby making the appearance of the electric steamer product more symmetrical and beautiful.
[0012] In an optional embodiment, a waste water tank is provided below the steamer, and the waste water tank is detachably provided at the bottom of the base. The waste water tank is suitable for collecting condensed water, and the condensed water in the steamer can be collected through the waste water tank to avoid flowing onto the placement table, thereby improving the user experience of the product.
[0013] In an optional embodiment, there are multiple steamers, and the machine base is provided with multiple steam pipes corresponding to the steamers, and the multiple steam pipes are all connected to the steam cavity. When any of the steamers is installed on the machine base, the inner cavity of the steamer is connected to the corresponding steam pipe, and the steam pipe is provided with a control valve. By providing the control valve on the steam pipe, not only can the flow rate of steam entering the steamer be controlled, but also the steam can be prevented from entering the steamer by closing the control valve. The characteristics of the control valve can enable the electric steamer to match the steam characteristics of various foods, thereby achieving a better cooking effect.
[0014] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this application are:
[0015] The present application adds a hot air system to the traditional electric steamer, that is, the hot air system supplies high-temperature air flow into the steam chamber to reheat the steam in the steam chamber, and then the heated high-temperature steam is introduced into the steamer to heat the food, thereby greatly improving the steaming effect of the food; in addition, compared with the traditional electric steamer in which food steamers are stacked, the multiple steamers in the present application are not stacked, but are directly placed on the corresponding supports on the machine base, so that only the one needed can be taken, and at the same time, each steamer is surrounded by a pot body and a pot cover to form an inner cavity for placing food, so that the multiple steamers will not mix with each other during the cooking process, which can greatly improve the user experience.
