[0003] With the improvement of living standards, automated cooking equipment has gradually entered the public's field of vision, and has been loved by the majority of users due to its operation method. Among them, the stir-frying machine is one of them. The stir-frying machine uses a motor to drive the stirring knife to rotate, thereby realizing the function of stir-frying the ingredients.

[0004] In order to facilitate the use of users, the pot body of the cooking utensil is generally removably arranged in the base body along the vertical direction. The direction in which the user takes and places the pot is perpendicular to the extension direction of the rotation axis of the stirring component. Therefore, when the user takes and places the pot, it is generally necessary to disengage the stirring component from the corresponding driving structure.

[0005] At present, the cooking utensils in the related art can use a button structure to disengage the driving structure from the stirring component. When the user needs to take out the pot, he only needs to press the button to take the pot out of the base. However, the above cooking utensils also have disadvantages. The user needs to keep pressing the button to keep the driving structure and the stirring component in the disengaged state, that is, the user only has one hand left to take out the pot, which is inconvenient to operate, especially when there is a lot of food in the pot, the user is very difficult to operate.

[0073] In other embodiments, the notch of the slot 51 may be arranged upward, so that the insertion protrusion 52 can be conveniently inserted into the slot 51 without providing a guiding inclined surface.

[0074] In this embodiment, after the upper cover 20 is covered on the outer shell 12, the first magnetic part 41 and the second magnetic part 42 are arranged in a lateral interval, and when the upper cover 20 is opened from the outer shell 12, the upper cover 20 is vertically away from the outer shell 12. By adopting the above-mentioned moving method, the first magnetic part 41 is moved vertically relative to the second magnetic part 42, thereby reducing the magnetic attraction between the first magnetic part 41 and the second magnetic part 42 when the upper cover 20 moves, so that the upper cover 20 is easy to be opened from the outer shell 12.

[0075] like Fig.11 and Fig.13 As shown, a snap-fit ​​structure 60 is provided on the cooking utensil, and the plug-in structure 50 and the snap-fit ​​structure 60 are respectively located on opposite sides of the cooking utensil, and the snap-fit ​​structure 60 includes a snap-fitting snap-fitting groove 61 and a snap-fitting protrusion 62, the snap-fitting groove 61 is provided on one of the upper cover 20 and the outer shell 12, and the snap-fitting protrusion 62 is provided on the other of the upper cover 20 and the outer shell 12. By matching the plug-in structure 50 and the snap-fitting structure 60, the upper cover 20 and the outer shell 12 can be fixed to prevent the upper cover 20 from moving laterally.

[0076] In this embodiment, the cooking appliance includes a cooking machine.

[0077] The following is an explanation of the specific working process of the cooking appliance:

[0078] When the upper cover 20 is covered on the outer shell 12, the first magnetic part 41 attracts the second magnetic part 42 to move toward the first magnetic part 41 through magnetic attraction, and the second magnetic part 42 drives the fork to move in the horizontal direction, and the fork drives the connecting member 33 to move along the axial direction of the driving shaft 321, and the connecting member 33 moves from the separation position to the driving position, and then the driving member 32 is connected to the stirring blade 31 through the connecting member 33 to drive the stirring blade 31 to rotate, so as to achieve the flipping and stirring of the ingredients in the cooking machine. In addition, when the second magnetic part 42 drives the fork to move, the fork drives the sliding rod 45 to move in the horizontal direction and compress the reset member 43. When the upper cover 20 is separated from the outer shell 12, due to the elastic force provided by the reset member 43, the sliding rod 45 moves in the horizontal direction, and the sliding rod 45 drives the fork to move, and the fork drives the connecting member 33 from the driving position to the separation position, so as to achieve the separation of the connecting member 33 and the stirring blade 31. At this time, the inner pot 13 can be taken out of the outer shell 12.

[0079] It should be noted that the terms used herein are only for describing specific embodiments and are not intended to limit the exemplary embodiments according to the present application. As used herein, unless the context clearly indicates otherwise, the singular form is also intended to include the plural form. In addition, it should be understood that when the terms "comprise" and / or "include" are used in this specification, it indicates the presence of features, steps, operations, devices, components and / or combinations thereof.

[0080] Unless otherwise specifically stated, the relative arrangement, numerical expressions and numerical values ​​of the parts and steps set forth in these embodiments do not limit the scope of the present invention. Meanwhile, it should be understood that, for ease of description, the sizes of the various parts shown in the accompanying drawings are not drawn according to the actual proportional relationship. The technology, method and equipment known to those of ordinary skill in the relevant art may not be discussed in detail, but in appropriate cases, the technology, method and equipment should be considered as a part of the specification. In all examples shown and discussed here, any specific value should be interpreted as being merely exemplary, rather than as a limitation. Therefore, other examples of exemplary embodiments may have different values. It should be noted that similar reference numerals and letters represent similar items in the following drawings, and therefore, once a certain item is defined in an accompanying drawing, it does not need to be further discussed in subsequent drawings.

[0081] In the description of the present invention, it is necessary to understand that the directions or positional relationships indicated by directional words such as "front, back, up, down, left, right", "lateral, vertical, perpendicular, horizontal" and "top, bottom" are usually based on the directions or positional relationships shown in the drawings. They are only for the convenience of describing the present invention and simplifying the description. Unless otherwise specified, these directional words do not indicate or imply that the devices or elements referred to must have a specific direction or be constructed and operated in a specific direction. Therefore, they cannot be understood as limiting the scope of protection of the present invention. The directional words "inside and outside" refer to the inside and outside relative to the contours of each component itself.

[0082] For ease of description, spatially relative terms such as "above", "above", "on the upper surface of", "above", etc. may be used here to describe the spatial positional relationship between a device or feature and other devices or features as shown in the figure. It should be understood that spatially relative terms are intended to include different orientations of the device in use or operation in addition to the orientation described in the figure. For example, if the device in the accompanying drawings is inverted, the device described as "above other devices or structures" or "above other devices or structures" will be positioned as "below other devices or structures" or "below other devices or structures". Thus, the exemplary term "above" can include both "above" and "below". The device can also be positioned in other different ways (rotated 90 degrees or in other orientations), and the spatially relative descriptions used here are interpreted accordingly.

[0083] In addition, it should be noted that the use of terms such as "first" and "second" to limit components is only for the convenience of distinguishing the corresponding components. If not otherwise stated, the above terms have no special meaning and therefore cannot be understood as limiting the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0084] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. For those skilled in the art, the present invention may have various modifications and variations. Any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present invention shall be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
