Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of household electrical appliances, and in particular to a cooking utensil. Background Art
[0002] Microwave ovens in the prior art usually only have microwave function but not electromagnetic heating function. If an electromagnetic heating module is added to the microwave oven, if the microwave module is close to the electromagnetic heating module, the microwave module in the microwave oven will interfere with the electromagnetic heating module during operation. Summary of the invention
[0003] The present invention aims to solve at least one of the technical problems existing in the prior art or related art.
[0004] To this end, the present invention provides a cooking utensil.
[0005] To achieve at least one of the above-mentioned purposes, the present invention proposes a cooking utensil, comprising: a main body, comprising a cooking cavity; a microwave component, arranged on the main body, the microwave component comprising a surface wave generating device, the surface wave generating device comprising a plurality of fins, the fins being used to radiate microwaves into the cooking cavity; an electromagnetic component, arranged on the main body; a lifting mechanism, arranged on the main body, the lifting mechanism being connected to the electromagnetic component, and when the microwave component is running, the lifting mechanism drives the electromagnetic component to move in a direction away from the fins.
[0006] The cooking utensil proposed in the present application includes a main body, the main body includes a cooking cavity, the cooking cavity is used to accommodate food, and the cooking utensil can cook the food in the cooking cavity. The cooking utensil also includes a microwave component and an electromagnetic component, and the food in the cooking cavity can be heated in different cooking modes by the microwave component and the electromagnetic component. Specifically, the microwave component is arranged in the main body, and the microwave component can generate microwaves and radiate microwaves into the cooking cavity. In order to make the microwave component have a microwave radiation function, a surface wave generating device is arranged in the microwave component, and the surface wave generating device has a plurality of fins, and the fins can radiate microwaves into the cooking cavity, so that the microwave component can perform microwave heating on the food in the cooking cavity. The electromagnetic component is arranged in the main body, and the electromagnetic component can perform electromagnetic heating on the pot placed in the cooking cavity, and the pot contains food, thereby realizing heating of the food in the pot. In this way, the cooking utensil can have multiple cooking modes. The microwave component and the electromagnetic component operate independently of each other.
[0007] Furthermore, in order to avoid the microwave component and the electromagnetic component from affecting each other, the present application also provides a lifting mechanism in the cooking utensil, and the lifting mechanism is used to drive the electromagnetic component to move relative to the microwave component. Specifically, the lifting mechanism is arranged on the main body and connected to the electromagnetic component, and the lifting mechanism can raise or lower the electromagnetic component. Understandably, when the microwave component is running, the fins radiate microwaves upward to radiate microwaves into the cooking cavity. If the electromagnetic component is located within the microwave radiation range of the fins, it will affect the propagation of the microwaves, and the microwaves will also affect the electromagnetic component, which can easily cause the electromagnetic component to ignite. In order to avoid the above problems, the present application enables the lifting mechanism to drive the electromagnetic component to move in a direction away from the fins when the microwave component is running, so as to keep the electromagnetic component away from the microwave radiation range of the fins, avoid the electromagnetic component from affecting the propagation of the microwaves, and also prevent the microwaves from causing the electromagnetic component to ignite, thereby improving the safety of the cooking utensil.
[0008] By arranging a lifting mechanism in the cooking appliance to lift the electromagnetic component, the electromagnetic component can be driven by the lifting mechanism to move away from the microwave radiation range of the fins when the microwave component is running. On the one hand, it can prevent the microwaves generated by the microwave component from affecting the electromagnetic component, and on the other hand, it can also prevent the electromagnetic component from affecting the microwave radiation of the fins. While the cooking appliance has electromagnetic heating and microwave heating functions, the safety and reliability of the cooking appliance are also ensured.
[0009] The cooking utensil according to the present invention may also have the following distinguishing technical features:
[0010] In some technical solutions, optionally, the microwave component includes: when the microwave component is running, the lifting mechanism lowers the electromagnetic component so that the height of the electromagnetic component is lower than the fin; when the electromagnetic component is running and the microwave component stops running, the lifting mechanism raises the electromagnetic component so that the electromagnetic component is close to the bottom wall of the cooking cavity.
[0011] In this technical solution, the working mode of the lifting mechanism is limited. When the microwave component is running, if the electromagnetic component is located above the fin, that is, the electromagnetic component is located within the microwave radiation range of the fin, on the one hand, the microwave will affect the electromagnetic component, and it is easy to cause ignition. On the other hand, the electromagnetic component will affect the propagation of microwaves. In order to avoid the above problems, when the microwave component is running, the lifting mechanism lowers the electromagnetic component so that the height of the electromagnetic component is lower than the fin, and the electromagnetic component is not within the microwave radiation range of the fin, so that the microwave will not affect the electromagnetic component, and the electromagnetic component will not affect the propagation of microwaves, avoiding the microwave component and the electromagnetic component from affecting each other. When the electromagnetic component is running and the microwave component stops running, the lifting mechanism raises the electromagnetic component so that the electromagnetic component is close to the bottom wall of the cooking cavity. It can be understood that the pot in the cooking cavity needs to be kept within a certain distance from the electromagnetic component to ensure that the electromagnetic component is at the highest heating efficiency. Therefore, by raising the electromagnetic component through the lifting mechanism, the distance between the electromagnetic component and the pot in the cooking cavity can be shortened, the electromagnetic heating efficiency of the electromagnetic component can be improved, and the cooking efficiency of the food in the pot can be improved.

It should be noted that the embodiments of the present application and the features in the embodiments can be combined with each other without conflict.
[0087] In the following description, many specific details are set forth to facilitate a full understanding of the present invention. However, the present invention may also be implemented in other ways different from those described herein. Therefore, the protection scope of the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.
[0088] Refer to the following Figures 1 to 33 A cooking appliance 100 is described according to some embodiments of the present invention.
[0089] In one embodiment according to the present application, Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Fig.16 , Fig.17 , Fig.18 , Fig.19 , Fig.26 , Fig. 27 and Fig.28As shown, the present invention proposes a cooking device 100, including: a main body 110, including a cooking cavity 113; a microwave component 120, which is arranged on the main body 110, and the microwave component 120 includes a surface wave generating device 130, and the surface wave generating device 130 includes a plurality of fins 131, and the fins 131 are used to radiate microwaves into the cooking cavity 113; an electromagnetic component 140, which is arranged on the main body 110; a lifting mechanism 150, which is arranged on the main body 110, and is connected to the electromagnetic component 140. When the microwave component 120 is running, the lifting mechanism 150 drives the electromagnetic component 140 to move in a direction away from the fins 131.
[0090] The cooking device 100 proposed in the present application includes a main body 110, and the main body 110 includes a cooking cavity 113. The cooking cavity 113 is used to accommodate food, and the cooking device 100 can cook the food in the cooking cavity 113. The cooking device 100 also includes a microwave component 120 and an electromagnetic component 140, and the food in the cooking cavity 113 can be heated in different cooking modes by the microwave component 120 and the electromagnetic component 140. Specifically, the microwave component 120 is arranged on the main body 110, and the microwave component 120 can generate microwaves and radiate microwaves into the cooking cavity 113. In order to enable the microwave component 120 to have a microwave radiation function, a surface wave generating device 130 is arranged in the microwave component 120, and the surface wave generating device 130 has a plurality of fins 131, and the fins 131 can radiate microwaves into the cooking cavity 113, so that the microwave component 120 can perform microwave heating on the food in the cooking cavity 113. The electromagnetic assembly 140 is disposed on the main body 110, and the electromagnetic assembly 140 can perform electromagnetic heating on the pot placed in the cooking cavity 113, and the pot contains food, thereby heating the food in the pot. In this way, the cooking device 100 can have multiple cooking modes. The microwave assembly 120 and the electromagnetic assembly 140 operate independently of each other.
[0091] Furthermore, in order to avoid the microwave assembly 120 and the electromagnetic assembly 140 from affecting each other, the present application further provides a lifting mechanism 150 in the cooking device 100, and the lifting mechanism 150 is used to drive the electromagnetic assembly 140 to move relative to the microwave assembly 120. Specifically, the lifting mechanism 150 is provided on the main body 110 and connected to the electromagnetic assembly 140, and the lifting mechanism 150 can raise or lower the electromagnetic assembly 140. Understandably, when the microwave assembly 120 is running, the fins 131 radiate microwaves upward to radiate microwaves into the cooking cavity 113. If the electromagnetic assembly 140 is located within the microwave radiation range of the fins 131, it will affect the propagation of the microwaves, and the microwaves will also affect the electromagnetic assembly 140, which may easily cause the electromagnetic assembly 140 to ignite. In order to avoid the above problems, the present application enables the lifting mechanism 150 to drive the electromagnetic assembly 140 to move in a direction away from the fin 131 when the microwave assembly 120 is running, so as to keep the electromagnetic assembly 140 away from the microwave radiation range of the fin 131, avoid the electromagnetic assembly 140 from affecting the propagation of microwaves, and also prevent microwaves from causing ignition of the electromagnetic assembly 140, thereby improving the safety of the cooking appliance 100. Fig. 27 and Fig.30 FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram showing the lifting mechanism 150 lowering the electromagnetic assembly 140. Fig.28 and Fig.31 A schematic diagram showing the lifting mechanism 150 lifting the electromagnetic assembly 140 is shown.
[0092] By arranging the lifting mechanism 150 in the cooking device 100 to lift the electromagnetic assembly 140, the lifting mechanism 150 can drive the electromagnetic assembly 140 to move away from the microwave radiation range of the fins 131 when the microwave assembly 120 is running, which can prevent the microwave generated by the microwave assembly 120 from affecting the electromagnetic assembly 140, and can also prevent the electromagnetic assembly 140 from affecting the microwave radiation of the fins 131. While the cooking device 100 has the electromagnetic heating and microwave heating functions, the safety and reliability of the cooking device 100 are also ensured.
[0093] In some embodiments, optionally, Figure 2 , Figure 4 , Fig.17 , Fig.19 , Fig. 27 , Fig.28 , Fig.29 , Fig.30 and Fig.31As shown, the microwave assembly 120 includes: when the microwave assembly 120 is running, the lifting mechanism 150 lowers the electromagnetic assembly 140 so that the height of the electromagnetic assembly 140 is lower than the fin 131; when the electromagnetic assembly 140 is running and the microwave assembly 120 stops running, the lifting mechanism 150 raises the electromagnetic assembly 140 so that the electromagnetic assembly 140 is close to the bottom wall of the cooking cavity 113.
[0094] In this embodiment, the working mode of the lifting mechanism 150 is limited. When the microwave assembly 120 is running, if the electromagnetic assembly 140 is located above the fin 131, that is, the electromagnetic assembly 140 is located within the microwave radiation range of the fin 131, on the one hand, the microwave will affect the electromagnetic assembly 140, and it is easy to cause ignition. On the other hand, the electromagnetic assembly 140 will affect the propagation of the microwave. In order to avoid the above problems, when the microwave assembly 120 is running, the lifting mechanism 150 lowers the electromagnetic assembly 140 so that the height of the electromagnetic assembly 140 is lower than the fin 131, and the electromagnetic assembly 140 is not within the microwave radiation range of the fin 131, so that the microwave will not affect the electromagnetic assembly 140, and the electromagnetic assembly 140 will not affect the propagation of the microwave, so as to avoid the microwave assembly 120 and the electromagnetic assembly 140 from affecting each other. When the electromagnetic assembly 140 is running and the microwave assembly 120 stops running, the lifting mechanism 150 raises the electromagnetic assembly 140 so that the electromagnetic assembly 140 is close to the bottom wall of the cooking cavity 113. It is understandable that the pot in the cooking cavity 113 needs to be kept at a certain distance from the electromagnetic component 140 to ensure that the electromagnetic component 140 is at the highest heating efficiency. Therefore, by raising the electromagnetic component 140 through the lifting mechanism 150, the distance between the electromagnetic component 140 and the pot in the cooking cavity 113 can be shortened, the electromagnetic heating efficiency of the electromagnetic component 140 can be improved, and the cooking efficiency of the food in the pot can be improved.

The fins 131 extend in a direction toward the bottom wall of the cooking cavity 113 to radiate microwaves into the cooking cavity 113, thereby realizing the effect of the surface wave generating device 130 on microwave radiation.
[0097] Furthermore, in order to avoid interference between the surface wave generating plate 132 and the electromagnetic assembly 140, the present application sets an electromagnetic assembly avoidance opening 133 in the surface wave generating plate 132. When the lifting mechanism 150 raises or lowers the electromagnetic assembly 140, the electromagnetic assembly 140 can pass through the electromagnetic assembly avoidance opening 133 to avoid interference between the electromagnetic assembly 140 and the surface wave generating plate 132, so that the lifting mechanism 150 can drive the electromagnetic assembly 140 to move normally.

When the microwave component 120 is running, the lifting mechanism 150 lowers the electromagnetic component 140 into the electromagnetic component accommodating cavity 135.
[0099] In this embodiment, the structure of the cooking utensil 100 is further defined. The cooking utensil 100 further includes an electromagnetic assembly bracket 134, which is connected to the edge of the electromagnetic assembly avoidance opening 133, and is located on the side of the surface wave generating plate 132 away from the fin 131.

When the microwave assembly 120 is running, the lifting mechanism 150 lowers the electromagnetic assembly 140 to drive the electromagnetic assembly 140 to move in a direction away from the fin 131 until the lifting mechanism 150 lowers the electromagnetic assembly 140 into the electromagnetic assembly accommodating cavity 135.
[0100] By arranging an electromagnetic component bracket 134 on the side of the surface wave generating plate 132 away from the fin 131, and making the electromagnetic component bracket 134 enclose an electromagnetic component accommodating cavity 135, on the one hand, the electromagnetic component 140 can be protected by the electromagnetic component bracket 134, and on the other hand, the electromagnetic component 140 can be supported and limited by the bottom wall of the electromagnetic component accommodating cavity 135.

The first wave-suppressing teeth 136 can prevent the microwave from radiating in the direction toward the electromagnetic component 140, thereby avoiding the influence of the microwave component 120 on the electromagnetic component 140. Specifically, the plurality of first wave-suppressing teeth 136 are evenly distributed along the edge of the electromagnetic component avoidance opening 133.

When the cover 112 is buckled on the base 111, the second wave-suppressing teeth 115 are in contact with the surface of the base 111 to reduce microwave leakage in the cooking cavity 113. Furthermore, the second wave-suppressing teeth 115 themselves have a microwave shielding function, thereby further reducing microwave leakage.
[0130] In some embodiments, optionally, the cooking appliance 100 includes a microwave oven or a microwave induction cooker.
[0131] In this embodiment, the cooking appliance 100 includes an integrated microwave and induction cooker.
[0132] In a possible embodiment, the present application provides a microwave oven (i.e., cooking appliance 100) with an integrated electromagnetic heating module, which can solve the problem that a microwave oven and an induction cooker cannot be integrated into one body for composite heating.
[0133] The microwave oven with integrated electromagnetic heating module proposed in the present application is mainly divided into an electromagnetic module (ie, electromagnetic component 140 ), a microwave module (ie, microwave component 120 ), and a common module.
[0134] The microwave module includes a magnetron (i.e., a microwave generator 124), a waveguide tube, a waveguide fin 131 (i.e., fin 131), a frequency converter 116, a cavity bottom plate (i.e., a microwave bottom plate 121), etc. The microwave oven includes a shielding cover (i.e., a shell), wherein the shielding cover and the cavity bottom plate are both made of metal sheets, and a microwave choke structure (i.e., a second wave suppression tooth 115) is provided on the shielding cover, which is arranged above the base 111 and encloses a microwave shielding space (i.e., a cooking cavity 113) with the base 111. At the same time, a circular notch (i.e., an electromagnetic component avoidance opening 133) is reserved between the waveguide fin 131 and the metal bottom plate (i.e., the surface wave generating plate 132) for installing the electromagnetic heating module.
[0135] like Fig.23 and Fig.25 As shown, the electromagnetic module includes an electromagnetic coil 141 component (i.e., the electromagnetic coil 141) and a microwave shielding plate (i.e., the electromagnetic shielding plate 142), and the lifting mechanism 150 includes a lifting motor (i.e., a driving motor 151), a motor bracket 153, etc., which are installed at the notch reserved in the bottom plate of the cavity (i.e., the lifting mechanism avoidance opening 123). Among them, the electromagnetic heating coil, as the main body 110 of the electromagnetic heating module, is installed on the electromagnetic base 111. The electromagnetic base 111 can be considered to be combined with the waveguide fin 131, and is a non-magnetic or low-magnetic material, such as aluminum, high-temperature resistant plastic, ceramic, etc. Below the electromagnetic base 111, a lifting motor is fixed, and a thread is set on the rotating shaft of the lifting motor, which matches the through-hole thread in the middle of the electromagnetic coil 141 component. When the lifting motor rotates, the electromagnetic coil 141 component will rise through the threaded screw structure, and when the motor rotates in the opposite direction, the electromagnetic coil 141 component will fall. A microwave shielding plate is laid on the upper surface of the electromagnetic coil 141. The plate is a printed fiberglass board that can pass electromagnetic waves but block microwaves.
[0136] like Fig.23 and Fig.25As shown, the microwave and electromagnetic common module includes a power supply module (i.e., power supply component 180), a control module (i.e., control component 170) and a manipulation module, as well as related structural parts, such as a glass panel 117, an upper cover plate 118, a bottom shell 119, a hinge, a bracket, etc. These components are arranged under the metal bottom plate to control and support the operation of the microwave module and the electromagnetic module.
[0137] The working principle of this integrated system is: when the microwave system is working, in order to reduce the interference of the electromagnetic module on the microwave coupling system and prevent the electromagnetic module from having less microwave energy directly above the electromagnetic module and the food placed above the electromagnetic module from not being able to obtain sufficient microwave energy, the lifting motor of the electromagnetic module rotates to ensure that the electromagnetic coil 141 component remains in a lowered state, so that microwave energy can pass normally from above the electromagnetic module, thereby ensuring the normal operation of the microwave system and improving the overall uniformity of microwave heating. When the electromagnetic module is required to work, the metal pot needs to maintain an optimal distance of 3mm to 15mm from the electromagnetic coil 141 to ensure that the electromagnetic coil 141 is at the highest heating efficiency. At this time, the lifting motor of the electromagnetic module needs to be reversed to ensure that the electromagnetic coil 141 component remains in a raised state and close to the glass panel, so that the electromagnetic coil 141 and the metal pot maintain an optimal range of 3mm to 15mm.
