Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of kitchen appliances, and in particular to a cooking appliance. Background Art

[0002] In order to meet the needs of users, cooking equipment that can cook food in one or more ways such as steaming, baking, and frying has appeared on the market. Taking the cooking medium as hot air flow as an example, the cooking principle is: by continuously providing a circulating hot air flow to the inner pot where the food to be cooked is located, the food is cooked by hot air baking. Taking the cooking medium as steam as an example, the cooking principle is to continuously provide high-temperature steam to the inner pot where the food to be cooked is located, so that the food can be cooked by pure steaming. Taking the former as an example, the product forms of cooking equipment that includes baking functions include ovens, steam-bake all-in-one machines, steam-bake-fry all-in-one machines, etc.

[0003] With the development of smart kitchen technology, there is a structural form in which image sensors, cameras and other image acquisition components are configured on cooking equipment such as ovens. However, since the space where the cooking equipment is located is in a high temperature environment during operation, there is still room for improvement in how to achieve reliable configuration of image acquisition components on cooking equipment. Summary of the invention

[0004] The present application aims to at least partially solve the above-mentioned technical problems and / or solve at least part of the above-mentioned technical problems. Specifically, how to configure the image acquisition component in the cooking equipment while ensuring the working reliability of the image acquisition component, so as to ensure the cooking performance of the cooking equipment including the image acquisition component.

[0005] In view of this, the present application provides a cooking device, which includes: a cooking body, which is formed with a cooking cavity; a door body assembly, which is arranged on the cooking body in an openable manner, and the door body assembly is formed with a first channel and a second channel close to the cooking cavity; and an image acquisition assembly, which is arranged in the first channel; wherein the image acquisition assembly includes: an image acquisition module, which includes an image acquisition component and an installation shell, the installation shell is formed with an installation cavity, and at least a portion of the image acquisition component is accommodated in the installation cavity.

[0006] With such a configuration, it is possible to realize image capture of the cooking cavity by installing an image capture component in the outer channel of the double-channel glass.

[0007] For the above cooking device, in a possible implementation, the image acquisition module includes: a protective component, which includes a shield, the shield is fixedly disposed on the mounting shell, and at least a portion of the image acquisition component extends into the shield.

[0008] With such a configuration, it is possible to ensure the quality of the acquired image data, thereby ensuring the reliability of the cooking device that operates based on the image data.

[0009] For the above cooking device, in a possible implementation manner, the protective cover is sealedly connected to the inner wall of the first channel.

[0010] With such a configuration, it is possible to effectively prevent liquid at the top of the first channel and other locations from entering the interior of the image acquisition module.

[0011] For the above cooking device, in a possible implementation, the image acquisition component includes: an image acquisition mounting bracket, which is arranged on the door body assembly; wherein the image acquisition module is arranged on the image acquisition mounting bracket.

[0012] Through such a structure, it is possible to realize the arrangement of the image acquisition module on the door body assembly by introducing an image acquisition mounting bracket.

[0013] For example, in order to ensure the working reliability of components such as electrical components with certain working temperature requirements (and to extend their service life as much as possible), the cooking equipment will be equipped with a heat dissipation component including a heat dissipation fan and a heat dissipation duct at locations such as the top and back.

[0014] The temperature in the cooking chamber where the ingredients are located (the temperature of the cooking environment) is higher, such as up to 300°C. As a result, structures such as the top / back of the cabinet (where electrical components with operating temperature requirements are installed) and door components will also be at a higher temperature. For example, in order to ensure the working reliability of components such as electrical components with operating temperature requirements (and to extend their service life as much as possible), the cooking equipment will be equipped with a heat dissipation component (whole machine heat dissipation component) including a heat dissipation fan and a heat dissipation duct at locations such as the top and back.

[0015] Taking the image acquisition component as an example, the temperature of the door body assembly can usually reach 130°C. In order to ensure the reliability of the camera and extend its service life as much as possible, the camera should be in a working environment not higher than 85°C. In this way, it is necessary to effectively cool down the area where the camera is located. For example, the aforementioned heat dissipation assembly can be used to cool down the door body assembly while cooling down components such as electrical components that have working temperature requirements, or the camera can be cooled by adding a fan that can blow directly to the camera. However, the former has a smaller cooling range, and the latter's installation position will affect the camera's image acquisition field of view to a certain extent, and there is a problem of uneven heat dissipation to a certain extent. Therefore, there is still room for improvement in how to effectively cool down the camera configured in the door body assembly. In response to this, the present application has also made the following improvements:

[0016] For the above-mentioned cooking device, in a possible embodiment, the cooking device also includes: a heat dissipation component, which includes a heat dissipation fan, and the heat dissipation fan can at least introduce air from the bottom of the first channel into the first channel, thereby dissipating the heat of the image acquisition component; wherein, observed along the width direction of the door body assembly, the heat dissipation fan is arranged at a position of the door body assembly near its end.

[0017] With such a configuration, it is possible to dissipate heat from the image acquisition component.

[0018] The “the heat dissipation fan can at least introduce air from the bottom of the first channel into the first channel” includes the following two situations:

[0019] Scenario 1: the heat dissipation fan introduces air from the bottom of the first channel and other directions such as the side into the first channel;

[0020] Scenario 2: The heat dissipation fan introduces air from the first channel and the second channel into the first channel.

[0021] On this basis, the first channel may be introduced in a straight line or after constructing a specific path such as a curve or a broken line.

[0022] For the above-mentioned cooking equipment, in a possible embodiment, the heat dissipation component includes: a heat dissipation fan bracket, which is arranged on the door body assembly, and the heat dissipation fan is arranged on the heat dissipation fan bracket; wherein the heat dissipation fan bracket forms an air inlet channel, and the air at the position corresponding to the bottom of the first channel and / or the second channel can enter the air inlet channel through the air inlet side of the air inlet channel, and the air outlet side of the air inlet channel can be connected to the first channel.

[0023] With such a configuration, it is possible to introduce air for heat dissipation from the bottom of the door assembly into the first channel through the heat dissipation fan bracket.

[0024] It is understandable that technical personnel in this field can determine the structural form of the air inlet side / air outlet side, the connection position of the air outlet side and the heat dissipation fan, etc. according to actual needs. For example, the air outlet side and the heat dissipation fan can be connected in multiple positions such as the bottom and the side.

[0025] For the above-mentioned cooking equipment, in a possible embodiment, the heat dissipation fan bracket includes a first part and a second part, and the air inlet channel includes a first sub-air inlet channel formed in the first part and a second sub-air inlet channel formed in the second part, and the air enters the first channel through the first sub-air inlet channel and the second sub-air inlet channel in sequence; wherein, at least a part of the second sub-air inlet channel is accommodated in the second channel.

[0026] With such a configuration, it is possible to achieve heat dissipation of the image acquisition component through the constructed air inlet path of the first channel and / or the second channel→the second channel→the first channel.

[0027] In a possible implementation, the air inlet side of the air inlet channel includes at least a first air inlet, and the first air inlet is arranged at a position of the heat dissipation fan bracket corresponding to the first channel.

[0028] In a possible implementation, the air inlet side of the air inlet channel includes: a second air inlet port, which is arranged at a position of the heat dissipation fan bracket corresponding to the second channel.

[0029] For the above cooking device, in a possible implementation manner, the second air inlet is arranged at a position of the heat dissipation fan bracket corresponding to the second channel close to the first channel.

[0030] With such a configuration, it is possible to reduce the temperature of the air used for heat dissipation.

[0031] For the above cooking device, in a possible implementation manner, a certain angle is formed between the first sub-air inlet channel and the second sub-air inlet channel.

[0032] Through such a configuration, a possible construction mode of the air inlet path is provided.

[0033] In a possible implementation manner, the first sub-air inlet channel and the second sub-air inlet channel are perpendicular to each other.

[0034] With such a configuration, it is possible to construct an air inlet passage of the heat dissipation component through two sections of sub-passages that are perpendicular to each other.

[0035] For the above cooking device, in a possible implementation manner, the second sub-air inlet channel is connected to the heat dissipation fan along the thickness direction of the door body assembly.

[0036] With such a structure, it is possible to realize the air intake of the heat dissipation fan by means of bottom air intake and side air discharge.

[0037] Wherein, the “second sub-air inlet channel is connected to the heat dissipation fan along the thickness direction of the door assembly” includes the following situations:

[0038] Scenario 1: The second sub-air inlet channel is completely contained in the first channel, and the air inlet of the heat dissipation fan is connected to the second sub-air inlet channel at the side (outside) of the first channel, or the air inlet of the heat dissipation fan has (its own structure extends into) / adds (newly added structure) a connecting pipe section in the first channel that can be connected to the second sub-air inlet channel;

[0039] Scenario 2: The second sub-air inlet channel is connected to the heat dissipation fan just outside the first channel;

[0040] Situation three: the second sub-air inlet channel is partially accommodated in the first channel and extends into the first channel, and the second sub-air inlet channel is connected to the air inlet of the heat dissipation fan at a position of the first channel close to the second channel.

[0041] For the above-mentioned cooking equipment, in a possible implementation, the image acquisition component includes a camera; and / or wherein, observed along the width direction of the door body assembly, the image acquisition component is arranged near the middle of the door body assembly; and / or the image acquisition component includes a fill light component.

[0042] Through such a structure, a possible structural form of the image acquisition component and its specific configuration on the door body component are given. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0077] The preferred embodiments of the present application are described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood by those skilled in the art that these embodiments are only used to explain the technical principles of the present application and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present application. For example, although the present embodiment introduces the cooking device in combination with a single-function oven, this is not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present application. Without departing from the principles of the present application, those skilled in the art may apply the present application to other application scenarios, such as replacing the oven with a steam-bake all-in-one machine, a double-cavity oven, and other cooking devices that also include hot air flow as a cooking medium. In addition, although the temperature of the cooking environment corresponding to steam is relatively low compared to hot air flow, the present application may also be applied to cooking equipment corresponding to steam, such as a steamer.

[0078] It should be noted that in the description of the present application, the terms "center", "upper", "lower", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "inner", "outer" and the like indicating directions or positional relationships are based on the directions or positional relationships shown in the drawings, which are only for the convenience of description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore cannot be understood as a limitation on the present application. In addition, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only, and cannot be understood as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0079] In addition, it should be noted that in the description of this application, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, the terms "installation", "setting", and "connection" should be understood in a broad sense, for example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be a direct connection, an indirect connection through an intermediate medium, or the internal connection of two components. For those skilled in the art, the specific meanings of the above terms in this application can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0080] In addition, in order to better illustrate the present application, many specific details are given in the specific embodiments below. Those skilled in the art should understand that the present application can also be implemented without certain specific details. In some examples, the detailed structure and principle of the oven well known to those skilled in the art are not described in detail in order to highlight the main purpose of the present application.

[0081] Main reference Figures 1 to 10 In a possible embodiment, the cooking device 100 is an oven, which can cook food by hot air baking. For example, the oven mainly includes a cooking body 1, and the cooking body 1 includes a box body 11 and an inner pot 12 arranged in the box body 11, and the inner pot 12 forms a cooking cavity. By running a corresponding cooking mode, the food placed in the cooking cavity can be cooked by hot air baking. If a shelf 13 is arranged in the inner pot 12, the food to be cooked can be placed directly on the shelf 13 or placed in a container (such as a plate, etc.) placed on the shelf 13, wherein one or more layers of mounting positions for placing the shelf 13 can be configured in the cooking cavity. For example, a stand 14 is arranged in the inner pot 12, and the shelf 13 can be arranged at different heights of the stand 14. Since the realization of the grilling function is closely related to the temperature of the hot air flow serving as the cooking medium, a first heating component such as a heating tube may be provided at the top, side, bottom, etc. of the inner pot 12, so that the hot air flow in the cooking cavity can be primarily heated or auxiliary / supplementarily heated when necessary.

[0082] In a possible implementation, the cooking body 1 is provided with an openable door assembly 2 on the side facing the operator (such as the front side), and an image acquisition assembly 3 is provided on the door assembly 2. By opening the door assembly 2, the user can carry out the operation of taking and placing the ingredients / food in the cooking chamber, such as the door assembly 2 can move relative to the cooking body 1 by flipping up / down, pivoting left / right, pushing and pulling, etc. For example, before preparing to cook the ingredients, during the cooking process, and after the cooking of the ingredients, the cooking performance of the cooking device 100 can be guaranteed based on the image data related to the type, position, quantity, cooking progress, etc. of the ingredients collected by the image acquisition assembly 3. For example, the parameters of the cooking device 100 can be adjusted based on the image data, or the linkage of other equipment such as a range hood and a stove associated with the current cooking can be achieved based on the image data.

[0083] In a possible implementation, the door assembly 2 includes an outer layer of glass 21, an inner layer of glass 22, and a middle layer of glass 23 located therebetween, wherein the outer layer of glass 21 and the middle layer of glass 23 form a first channel 201, the middle layer of glass 23 and the inner layer of glass 22 form a second channel 202, and the image acquisition assembly 3 is disposed in one of the channels. For example, in this example, the image acquisition assembly 3 is disposed in the first channel 201.

[0084] In a possible implementation, the image acquisition component 3 includes an image acquisition module 31. For example, in this example, the image acquisition module 31 includes an image acquisition component 311 and a mounting component 312. For example, the image acquisition component includes a camera, and the camera is roughly arranged near the middle of the first channel 201 along its width, and the camera is roughly located near the top of the first channel 201 along its height. For example, the camera can capture image data of an area that usually contains at least ingredients at an oblique downward angle. For example, in this example, the camera's capture angle of view is relatively fixed. Obviously, it can also be set to an adjustable capture angle according to actual needs, such as by sliding along the width / height direction, rotating around its own axis, flipping along the up and down / left and right directions, etc., to better capture cooking-related image data.

[0085] In a possible embodiment, the mounting assembly 312 is formed with a mounting cavity, and at least a portion of the camera is accommodated in the mounting cavity. For example, most of the structures except those close to the lens are accommodated in the mounting cavity. Exemplarily, the mounting assembly 312 is roughly a shell structure (such as can be called a mounting shell), and the mounting shell includes a first shell 3211 and a second shell 3212, the first shell 3211 is roughly a plate-like structure, and the second shell 3212 is roughly a cover-like structure. The first shell 3211 is arranged on the door body assembly, and the second shell 3212 is arranged on the first shell 3211. Obviously, those skilled in the art can flexibly determine the structural form of the mounting assembly, the number of components it contains, etc. according to actual needs. For example, the mounting shell may include two parts buckled at the side, and the mounting assembly may be any other reasonable structural form such as a cylindrical structure, a combination of multiple block structures, etc.

[0086] In a possible implementation, the image acquisition module 31 also includes a protective component 313, and the protective component 313 includes a protective cover 3131. For example, in the present example, the protective cover 3131 forms an outward expansion structure such as a trumpet-shaped structure along the inner side of the door body component 2, and the camera lens at least partially extends into the protective component 313, thereby effectively preventing the light reflected by the glass of the door body component 2 from affecting the imaging effect, thereby ensuring the quality of the collected image data. Obviously, those skilled in the art can flexibly determine the structural form of the protective cover according to actual needs, such as any reasonable structural form in which the protective cover is a cylindrical structure, an inclined surface / curved surface is extended outward from the outer edge (edge) of the plate-like structure, etc.

[0087] In a possible implementation, the shield 3131 is fixedly disposed on the mounting housing 3211. For example, the shield is fixedly disposed on the second housing 32112 of the mounting housing 3211, and the two can be fixedly connected by means of fasteners such as screws. For example, a mounting structure such as an extension end is extended from the second housing 32112, and a mounting hole adapted to fasteners such as screws is provided on the mounting structure.

[0088] In one possible implementation, a sealing structure 3132 such as a rubber ring is provided between the shield 3131 and the glass close to the inner side of the door body assembly 2, such as the middle glass 23 of the door body assembly 2 in this example, to prevent water from the top of the door body assembly 2 from intruding into the image acquisition module, thereby ensuring the reliability of the image acquisition module.

[0089] In a possible implementation, the image acquisition component 3 includes at least one fill light or other fill light component 32. For example, in this example, there are two fill lights, which are disposed on both sides of the image acquisition module 31 along the width direction, so as to fill light the image acquisition field of view according to actual needs, thereby ensuring the quality of the image data acquired by the image acquisition module 31.

[0090] In a possible implementation, the image acquisition component 3 includes an image acquisition mounting bracket 33, which is disposed on the door body component 2, and the first housing 32111 of the image acquisition module 31 and the fill light component 32 are both disposed on the image acquisition mounting bracket 33. As in this example, the image acquisition mounting bracket 33 is disposed at a position of the door body component corresponding to the inner side of the outer layer of glass in an adhesive manner, and the wiring harness 34 related to the camera and the fill light can be passed through the bottom of the door body component into the cooking body and then connected to the control panel in the box.

[0091] In a possible embodiment, the oven includes a heat dissipation component 4, the heat dissipation component 4 includes a heat dissipation fan 41, the heat dissipation fan 41 is arranged on a heat dissipation fan bracket 42, the heat dissipation fan 41 is arranged in the first channel 201 where the image acquisition component 3 is installed, and the heat dissipation fan bracket 42 forms an air inlet channel 43, so that under the guidance of the heat dissipation fan 41, the external air corresponding to the position of the first channel 201 and / or the second channel 202 can enter the air inlet channel 43 through the air inlet side of the air inlet channel 43, and the air outlet side of the air inlet channel 43 can be connected with the first channel 201, so that under the guidance of the heat dissipation fan 41, the external air can enter the first channel 201 through the air inlet channel 43 to dissipate the heat of the image acquisition component 3. Taking the "first channel 201 and the second channel 202" as an example, it may include but is not limited to: the air inlet side of the air inlet channel 43 can simultaneously cover the positions corresponding to the first channel 201 and the second channel 202; the air inlet side of the air inlet channel 43 includes two air inlets, and the two air inlets respectively cover the positions corresponding to the first channel 201 and the second channel 202.

[0092] In a possible embodiment, the heat dissipation fan bracket 42 includes a first part 421 and a second part 422, the air inlet side is arranged at the first part 421, the air outlet side is arranged at the second part 422, and the second part 422 is located above the first part 421. The air inlet channel 43 includes a first sub-air inlet channel 431 formed in the first part 421 and a second sub-air inlet channel 432 formed in the second part 422, the first sub-air inlet channel 431 and the second sub-air inlet channel 432 are connected, wherein a certain angle is formed between the first sub-air inlet channel 431 and the second sub-air inlet channel 432. In this way, under the guidance of the heat dissipation fan 41, the external air enters the second channel 202 through the first sub-air inlet channel 431 and the second sub-air inlet channel 432 in sequence. Among them, the first part 421 has overlapping parts with the first channel 201 and the second channel 202 in the thickness direction of the door body assembly 2 (projection on the horizontal plane), and at least a part of the second part 422 is accommodated in the second channel 202. In this way, the air inlet path of the heat dissipation fan 41 is roughly as follows: after the external air is sucked into the first sub-air inlet channel 431 , it flows into the second sub-air inlet channel 432 , and is sucked into the first channel 201 at a position roughly corresponding to the second channel 202 .

[0093] It should be noted that the phrase "at least a portion of the second portion 422 is contained in the second channel 202" herein should be understood as: at least a portion of the air is first introduced into the first channel 201 after flowing through the second channel 202. For example, it may be all, a portion, or most of the air. Exemplarily, most of the structure of the second portion 422 is contained in the second channel 202, while a small portion of the structure is located in the first channel 201 near the second channel 202. In this way, most of the air enters the first channel 201 by first flowing through the second channel 202 and then flowing through the first channel 201. For a small portion of the air, although it is sucked into the first channel 201 at a position corresponding to the first channel 201, based on the structural arrangement of the first portion 421 and the second portion 422, it changes direction in the process of flowing to the first channel 201.

[0094] It should be noted that the "a certain angle is formed between the first sub-air inlet channel 431 and the second sub-air inlet channel 432" mentioned here is understood to mean that when the air flows through the first sub-air inlet channel 431 and the second sub-air inlet channel 432 in sequence, the air flow will change direction. Based on this, those skilled in the art can determine the structural form of the first / second sub-air inlet channel (432), the relative position of the two, the size of the angle, etc. according to actual needs. For example, it may include but is not limited to one being a straight channel and the other being a curved / broken line channel, both being straight channels (such as the angle can be 30°, 45°, 60°, 90°, 120°, etc.), both being curved / broken line channels, etc.

[0095] It is understandable that those skilled in the art can determine the structural form of the heat dissipation fan bracket, the number of components it contains, and the structural form of the first part / second part, the number of components each contains, the way the two constitute the heat dissipation fan bracket, etc. can also be flexibly selected according to actual needs. For example, the first part and the second part can be fixedly connected or integrally formed, and the first part / second part can each be composed of one or more components. Exemplarily, in the first part, the bottom part where the first / second air inlet is set and the side part that forms the first air inlet sub-channel are two separate structures.

[0096] In a possible embodiment, the first sub-air inlet channel 431 and the second sub-air inlet channel 432 are approximately vertical. As in the present example, the first sub-air inlet channel 431 is arranged approximately horizontally, and the second sub-air inlet channel 432 is arranged approximately in the vertical direction, and the two approximately form an L-shaped structure. Obviously, this is only an exemplary description, and those skilled in the art can flexibly adjust its structural form, relative position, etc. according to actual needs, such as a T-shaped structure, a C-shaped structure, etc. Taking the C-shaped structure as an example, under the guidance of the heat dissipation fan 41, the air can enter the second channel 202 along the middle and / or upper end of the C-shaped structure. Exemplarily, the middle part of the C-shaped structure is accommodated in the second channel 202, and a part of the upper end of the C-shaped structure extends into the second channel 202.

[0097] In a possible embodiment, the air inlet side of the air inlet channel 43 includes a first air inlet 441 and a second air inlet 442, wherein the first air inlet 441 is arranged at a position of the air inlet channel 43 corresponding to the first channel 201, the second air inlet 442 is arranged at a position of the air inlet channel 43 corresponding to the second channel 202, and the second air inlet 442 is arranged at a position of the second channel 202 close to the first channel 201. As in this example, the first air inlet 441 includes a plurality of strip holes extending along the thickness direction of the door body assembly 2 (the plurality of strip holes are arranged along the width direction of the door body assembly 2), and the second air inlet 442 includes a plurality of strip holes extending along the width direction of the door body assembly 2 (the plurality of strip holes are arranged along the width direction of the door body assembly 2). Obviously, those skilled in the art can determine the structural form, number, setting position, air intake volume, etc. of the first air inlet 441 and the second air inlet 442 according to actual needs, such as an open area, a grille structure, etc. In the case where the first / second air inlet 442 includes multiple, the structural form (which can be the same or different) and distribution form (such as uniform / uneven, symmetrical, etc.) of the multiple first / second air inlets 442 can be flexibly set according to actual needs. In this way, since the first air inlet 441 and the second air inlet 442 are relatively set at a position far away from the inner liner 12, the front door frame, etc., the temperature of the air corresponding to this position is relatively low. Therefore, such a setting can improve the heat dissipation effect of the image acquisition module to a certain extent.

[0098] It is understandable that those skilled in the art can determine the number, position, structure, etc. of the air inlets on the air inlet side according to actual needs. For example, only the first air inlet 441 may be included, and the first air inlet 441 may be arranged at a position close to the outside of the first channel 201. In this case, compared with the position corresponding to the second channel 202, the position corresponding to the first channel 201 is far away from the inner liner 12, the front door frame, etc., so the air temperature is relatively low.

[0099] Among them, the air inlet direction of the first / second air inlet 442 can be vertical or inclined upward from the direction away from the inner liner 12 toward the direction close to the inner liner 12, so as to further increase the temperature of the air used for heat dissipation, such as by means of inclined holes, adding baffles at the air inlet, etc.

[0100] In a possible embodiment, the heat dissipation fan 41 is arranged at a position near the end of the first channel 201 along the width direction of the door body assembly 2. In addition, since the aforementioned air inlet channel 43 needs to take in air from the bottom of the door body assembly 2, the heat dissipation fan 41 is arranged at a position near the bottom of the first channel 201. In this way, under the guidance of the heat dissipation fan 41, the air located in the lower part of the door body assembly 2 near the outer area (corresponding to the position of the first channel 201) flows into the position corresponding to the second channel 202 along the first sub-air inlet channel 431, and then is sucked into the first channel 201 through the second sub-air inlet channel 432 on the inner side of the first channel 201 (corresponding to the position of the second channel 202). On this basis, under the action of the heat dissipation fan 41, a large range of turbulence is formed within the range of the entire second channel 202, thereby fully cooling the image acquisition module 31. In addition, the fill light can also be cooled at the same time.

[0101] In addition, since the aforementioned air inlet channel 43 needs to take in air from the bottom of the door body assembly 2, the heat dissipation fan 41 is arranged at a position near the bottom in the first channel 201. In this way, under the guidance of the heat dissipation fan 41, the air located in the area near the outside below the door body assembly 2 (corresponding to the position of the first channel 201 and the local position of the second channel 202 near the first channel 201) flows into the heat dissipation fan bracket 42 along the first sub-air inlet channel 431, and then is sucked into the first channel 201 through the second sub-air inlet channel 432 on the inner side of the first channel 201 (roughly corresponding to the position of the second channel 202). On this basis, under the action of the heat dissipation fan 41, a large-scale turbulence is formed in the entire second channel 202, thereby fully cooling the image acquisition module 31, and at the same time, cooling the fill light component 32.

[0102] In a possible embodiment, the door body assembly 2 is provided with a door body air outlet area 24 above it. After cooling the outer / middle layer glass 23, the image acquisition assembly 3, etc., the turbulent flow is discharged from the door body assembly 2 through the portion of the door body air outlet area 24 corresponding to the first channel 201. Exemplarily, the door body assembly 2 is provided with a door body air outlet piece 26 near the top, and the door body air outlet area 24 is provided on the door body air outlet piece 26. For example, the door body air outlet piece 26 can be fixedly connected to one or more of the outer / middle / inner layer glass 22. For example, the door body air outlet piece 26 is provided on the inner side of the outer layer glass 21 in an adhesive manner.

[0103] In a possible embodiment, the oven includes a fan cover assembly 5 capable of releasing hot air flow to the cooking chamber. For example, the fan cover assembly 5 mainly includes a fan cover 51, a temperature-uniform fan 52 (such as a centrifugal fan) and a second heating component 53 such as a heating coil. The temperature-uniform fan 52 is mainly used to keep the temperature of the hot air flow in the cooking chamber as uniform as possible. Exemplarily, the fan cover 51 forms a hot air chamber, and the temperature-uniform fan 52 is arranged in the hot air chamber, such as the second heating component 53 can be arranged in the hot air chamber or near the hot air chamber. Taking the second heating component 53 as a heating coil as an example, the heating coil can be arranged in the hot air chamber, and the temperature-uniform fan 52 is arranged in the area surrounded by the heating coil. The fan cover 51 is provided with a return air port 541 at a position close to the centrifugal fan, and the fan cover 51 is also provided with an air supply port 542, such as the air supply port 542 is arranged roughly along the circumference surrounding the return air port 541 or a local position of the circumference. In this way, under the action of the temperature-uniform fan 52, the air in the inner pot 12 flows through the return air port 541 and is sucked into the hot air chamber, where it is heated by the heating coil and converted into a hot air flow carrying heat, and then the hot air flow is thrown to the peripheral air supply port 542 and thus sent back into the inner pot 12. In this cycle, the hot air flow can be continuously released to the surface of the food to be cooked, so that the food to be cooked can be cooked in a hot air baking manner through the corresponding control program.

[0104] It should be noted that the hot air chamber mentioned here is not absolutely a complete chamber, but should be understood as a mounting position for accommodating the temperature-uniform blower 52 and the heating coil. Therefore, those skilled in the art can determine the structural form and connection state of the hot air chamber according to actual needs. For example, the temperature-uniform blower 52 and the heating coil can be arranged in the same chamber or placed in two connected chambers, etc. The hot air chamber can be connected to the cooking chamber through multiple connecting holes, or it can be connected to the cooking chamber by setting a certain part as an open structure.

[0105] In a possible embodiment, the oven further includes a whole machine heat dissipation assembly 6, such as the whole machine heat dissipation assembly 6 mainly including a heat dissipation duct 62 and a whole machine heat dissipation fan 61, and the whole machine heat dissipation fan 61 is mainly used to exhaust air by sucking air from the external environment into the heat dissipation duct 62. In the process of air flowing through the heat dissipation duct 62, it can dissipate heat for components such as power boards and electrical components to ensure the operating reliability of the oven. For example, the whole machine heat dissipation fan 61 can be set at the top, side, etc. of the inner pot 12. Exemplarily, the whole machine heat dissipation fan 61 is set at the top of the inner pot 12 and is located between the box body 11 and the top outer side of the inner pot 12.

[0106] In a possible implementation, the whole machine heat dissipation fan 61 is a centrifugal fan or a cross-flow fan, and at least a portion of the air inlet side of the heat dissipation air duct 62 is directed toward the door assembly 2, so that the heat dissipation fan 41 can dissipate heat to the door assembly 2 to a certain extent while dissipating heat to the top area. Exemplarily, the whole machine heat dissipation fan 61 is a cross-flow fan disposed at the top of the inner tank 12.

[0107] In a possible embodiment, the air inlet side of the heat dissipation duct 62 is aligned with the air outlet connecting area 24 on the heat dissipation outlet member 26 to at least a certain extent, so that the hot air flow above the first channel 201 and / or the second channel 202 can be sucked into the heat dissipation duct 62 to ensure the heat dissipation performance of the whole machine.

[0108] In a possible embodiment, an air outlet connection area 24 is provided near the top of the door body assembly 2 so as to discharge the heat-carrying gas in the first channel and the second channel in a timely manner. For example, in this example, a heat dissipation air outlet member 26 is provided on the door body assembly, and the heat dissipation air outlet member 26 has an air outlet connection area 24. For example, the air outlet connection area includes a plurality of air outlet connection holes. In addition to the aforementioned first / second air inlet 442, the lower part of the door body assembly 2 also includes an air inlet connection area 25 provided below the first / second channel 202 and capable of connecting with the area near the bottom of the oven (such as the area between the bottom of the inner tank 12 and the box body 11). For example, the air inlet connection area includes a plurality of air inlet connection holes. In this way, the bottom area of ​​the oven can be cooled by the whole machine heat dissipation fan 61 provided at the top of the inner tank 12, such as being able to further reduce the temperature of the air introduced into the first channel 201 through the air inlet channel 43. As in the present example, the air inlet connection area is an air inlet grille connected to both the first channel 201 and the second channel 202. Obviously, those skilled in the art can flexibly adjust it according to actual needs. For example, the structure can also be an open area / strip hole, etc., the air inlet direction can be adjusted to be inclined, the air inlet connection area can be distributed throughout the first / second channel 202 or can be only arranged in a local area (such as the air inlet connection area corresponding to the second channel 202 is arranged on both sides along its width direction, on the outside along its thickness direction, etc.).

[0109] It can be seen that in the preferred embodiment of the present application, the cooking performance of the cooking device can be guaranteed based on the collected image data in the cooking chamber through the setting of the image acquisition component. Specifically, the operating parameters of the oven itself or the operating parameters of other devices associated with the oven, such as the range hood, can be adjusted based on the collected image data. On the basis of the image acquisition component, the image acquisition component can be effectively cooled by the setting of the heat dissipation component, thereby ensuring the reliability of the image acquisition component. The heat dissipation performance of the cooking device is guaranteed by the cooperation between the heat dissipation component and the heat dissipation component of the whole machine.

However, it is easy for those skilled in the art to understand that the protection scope of the present application is obviously not limited to these specific embodiments.
