Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of kitchen appliances, and in particular, to a condensation assembly and a cooking device. Background Art

[0002] With the continuous increase in the attention of Chinese people to healthy cooking and balanced diet, people pay more and more attention to the cooking method of "steaming". A cooking device using steam usually includes an inner container. During cooking, steam fills the entire inner container and cooks the food in the inner container. In order to prevent the pressure in the inner container from being too high, the inner container has an inner container steam outlet. The inner container steam outlet is connected to a condensation assembly. The steam is condensed in the condensation assembly, thereby reducing the steam discharge amount, and also preventing a large amount of steam from being directly ejected and causing a scalding risk.

[0003] In order to improve the condensation effect of the condensation assembly, the condensation assembly of the prior art is provided with two condensation boxes stacked up and down. Both of the two condensation boxes include condensation pipes. The steam can sequentially pass through the condensation pipes of the two condensation boxes to condense the steam respectively. Among them, the lower condensation box adopts an air-cooling form, that is, the cold air generated by the cooling fan can be blown into the lower condensation box to perform the first condensation on the steam conveyed by the condensation pipes in the lower condensation box. And the upper condensation box is filled with a coolant, and the condensation pipes in the upper condensation box are immersed in the coolant, and the coolant is used to perform the second condensation on the condensation pipes therein.

[0004] However, since the upper and lower two condensation boxes of this condensation assembly respectively use different condensation methods, its structure is complicated. Summary of the Invention

[0005] In order to at least partially solve the problems existing in the prior art, according to one aspect of the present invention, a condensation assembly is provided. The condensation assembly includes: a first condensation box having a first steam inlet and a first steam outlet; a second condensation box having a second steam inlet and a second steam outlet; and a cooling air duct. The first condensation box and the second condensation box are arranged around the cooling air duct and are heat exchangeable with the cooling air duct. Among them, the first steam outlet is connected to the second steam inlet, and the second steam outlet is connected to the cooling air duct.

[0006] The condensation component provided by the embodiment of the present invention has a first condensation box and a second condensation box. Steam can pass through the first condensation box and the second condensation box in sequence, resulting in a relatively long flow path of the steam, and the condensation effect of the condensation component is better. Moreover, since the first condensation box and the second condensation box are arranged around the cooling air duct, when the air passes through the cooling air duct, the cooling capacity of the condensation component can be fully utilized, thereby greatly improving the condensation effect. In addition, by controlling the parameters of the air, the parameters of the steam passing through the condensation component can be adapted to achieve more precise and dynamic control of the condensation effect of the condensation component on the steam. In summary, the condensation component can reduce the external discharge amount of the steam discharged into the scene where it is applied, and can reduce the risk of scalding caused by the direct ejection of the steam. In this way, the humidity in the scene where the condensation component is applied will not be too high, the health of the user can be guaranteed, and the probability of problems such as mildew in components such as cabinets and electrical appliances can be reduced.

[0007] Exemplarily, the first condensation box and the second condensation box are oppositely arranged on both sides of the cooling air duct, and the cooling air duct is sandwiched between the first condensation box and the second condensation box. With such an arrangement, the first condensation box and the second condensation box can be separated by the cooling air duct, and the first condensation box and the second condensation box will not come into contact. Since the steam passes through the first condensation box and the second condensation box, the temperatures of the first condensation box and the second condensation box are relatively high. The separated first condensation box and second condensation box will not directly transfer heat to each other, so the influence on each other is small.

[0008] Exemplarily, at least one first baffle is arranged in parallel in the first condensation box, and the at least one first baffle divides into multiple first steam channels. The multiple first steam channels are connected end to end in a snake shape and are connected between the first steam inlet and the first steam outlet. Since the multiple first steam channels can be connected end to end in a snake shape, the total length of the multiple first steam channels is relatively long, and the flow path of the steam in the multiple first steam channels is relatively long. Moreover, the steam needs to change the flow direction at the head and tail of each first steam channel, so its flow speed can be reduced, thereby increasing the flow time in the multiple first steam channels. Therefore, the condensation effect of the first condensation box on the steam is better.

[0009] Exemplarily, each of the plurality of first steam channels spans the cooling air duct, and the plurality of first steam channels are arranged in sequence along the air supply direction of the cooling air duct. Among them, in the plurality of first steam channels, the first first steam channel communicated with the first steam inlet and the last first steam channel communicated with the first steam outlet are arranged in sequence along the air supply direction. As the steam is condensed in the plurality of first steam channels, the temperature of the steam will gradually decrease. Therefore, the temperature of the steam passing through the first first steam channel is the highest. By making the first first steam channel exchange heat with the cold air with the lowest temperature first, the temperature difference between the two is the largest, and the heat exchange efficiency is the highest. Moreover, since the first first steam channel also spans the cooling air duct, the first first steam channel can be well cooled, so that the cooling effect of the first condensation box can be further improved.

[0010] Exemplarily, at least one first baffle is spaced apart from the inner surface of the bottom wall of the first condensation box to form a first return gap, and the first return gap is in fluid communication with the first steam inlet. In this way, the first baffle does not block the condensed water, and the condensed water can converge on the inner surface of the bottom wall of the first condensation box, so as to facilitate drainage.

[0011] Exemplarily, the inner surface of the bottom wall of the first condensation box is inclined downward toward the first steam inlet. With this setting, the condensed water formed after the steam is condensed will flow along the inner surface of the bottom wall to the first steam inlet under the action of gravity, and thus can be discharged through the first steam inlet. Therefore, the first steam inlet can also be used as a condensed water outlet to discharge the condensed water. In this way, condensed water is not likely to accumulate in the first condensation box, so as to avoid the growth of bacteria and other dirt after long-term use, which may cause components such as the second condensation box and / or the following inner liner to be contaminated, and the health of users can be guaranteed. Moreover, there is no need to additionally provide a condensed water outlet on the first condensation box and a return water pipe connected between the condensed water outlet and the inner liner, which can simplify the structure of the first condensation box and the cooking device applying the condensation assembly.

[0012] Exemplarily, the first condensation box is located below the cooling air duct. Since the density of steam is usually less than that of air, steam usually flows upward. Based on this, the condensation assembly can usually be located above the steam generating component. And since the steam first passes through the first condensation box, the amount of condensed water in the first condensation box is usually greater than that in the second condensation box. In this way, the distance between the first condensation box and the steam generating component is relatively small, so as to reduce the flow path of the refluxed condensed water, and thus facilitate the reflux of the condensed water into the steam generating component. Moreover, the condensed water will cause the first condensation box to be heavier. Setting it below the cooling air duct can prevent it from squeezing the cooling air duct and the second condensation box, resulting in damage to the structure of the cooling air duct and / or the second condensation box, so as to avoid problems such as deformation and even cracking.

[0013] Exemplarily, at least one second baffle is arranged side by side in the second condensation box, and the at least one second baffle divides to form a plurality of second steam channels. The plurality of second steam channels are connected end to end to form a serpentine shape and are connected between the second steam inlet and the second steam outlet. Since the plurality of second steam channels can be connected end to end to form a serpentine shape, the total length of the plurality of second steam channels is relatively long, and the flow path of the steam in the plurality of second steam channels is relatively long. Moreover, the steam needs to change the flow direction at the head and tail of each second steam channel, so the flow speed thereof can be reduced, thereby increasing the flow time in the plurality of second steam channels. Therefore, the second condensation box has a better effect on condensing the steam.

[0014] Exemplarily, each of the plurality of second steam channels extends along the air supply direction of the cooling air duct, and the plurality of second steam channels are arranged in sequence along the direction across the cooling air duct. Compared with the first condensation box, the steam temperature in the second condensation box is much lower, and the temperature difference between the second steam channels is relatively smaller. Thus, the second steam channels in the second condensation box can be made to extend along the air supply direction P. In this way, dead corners that hinder the backflow of the condensed water will not be formed.

[0015] Exemplarily, the at least one second baffle is spaced apart from the inner surface of the bottom wall of the second condensation box to form a second backflow gap, and the second backflow gap is in fluid communication with the second steam inlet. In this way, the second baffle does not block the condensed water, and the condensed water can converge on the inner surface of the bottom wall of the second condensation box, thus facilitating drainage.

[0016] Exemplarily, the inner surface of the bottom wall of the second condensation box is inclined downward toward the second steam inlet. With such a setting, the condensed water formed after the steam is condensed will flow along the inner surface of the bottom wall to the second steam inlet under the action of gravity, and thus can be discharged to the first condensation box through the second steam inlet, and then can converge with the condensed water in the first condensation box for convenient discharge together. Therefore, the second steam inlet can also serve as a condensed water outlet to discharge the condensed water. In this way, condensed water is not likely to deposit in the second condensation box, thereby avoiding the growth of bacteria and other contaminants after long-term use, and further preventing components such as the first condensation box and / or the following inner liner, etc. connected thereto from being contaminated, and the health of the user can be guaranteed. Moreover, there is no need to additionally provide a condensed water outlet on the second condensation box and a return water pipe connected between the condensed water outlet and the first condensation box, which can simplify the structure of the second condensation box and the cooking device applying the condensation assembly.

[0017] Exemplarily, an annular flange extends upward from the edge of the second steam outlet, and the annular flange is higher than the inner surface of the bottom wall of the second condensation box. The annular flange can block the condensed water, thereby preventing the condensed water from flowing through the second steam outlet to the cooling air duct. Once the condensed water flows into the cooling air duct, when the wind passes through the cooling air duct, it will cause the condensed water to be blown out, resulting in the condensed water splashing onto various components, and thus problems such as short circuits and / or mildew may occur. Therefore, by providing the annular flange, the usage experience of the condensation assembly is better.

[0018] Exemplarily, the first steam outlet and the second steam inlet are communicated with each other through a connecting pipe, and the connecting pipe is located in the cooling air duct. With this arrangement, the first condensation box and the second condensation box can be separated, so that they do not directly transfer heat to each other, and thus have less influence on each other. Moreover, when the steam passes through the connecting pipe, the wind passing through the cooling air duct can quickly cool the steam. In addition, the connecting pipe can also play a supporting role, thereby suppressing damage to the structure of the cooling air duct and avoiding problems such as deformation and even cracking.

[0019] Exemplarily, the first steam outlet and the second steam inlet are oppositely arranged on both sides of the cooling air duct. With this arrangement, the connecting pipe can be a straight-through pipe. In this way, the structure of the connecting pipe is relatively simple, which is convenient for processing and manufacturing. Moreover, the supporting effect of the connecting pipe is better.

[0020] Exemplarily, the connecting pipe is adjacent to the side wall of the cooling air duct. When the wind passes through the cooling air duct, the connecting pipe will inevitably block the wind, thereby increasing the wind resistance. By arranging the connecting pipe adjacent to the side wall of the cooling air duct, its influence on the wind can be minimized to avoid excessive wind resistance.

[0021] Exemplarily, the first condensation box includes a first box body having a first opening and a first cover body covering the first opening, the second condensation box includes a second box body having a second opening and a second cover body covering the second opening, and the first cover body and the second cover body are oppositely arranged and enclose to form a cooling air duct. Using a part of the first condensation box and the second condensation box to form the cooling air duct can simplify the structure of the condensation assembly and is convenient for processing and manufacturing. Of course, an additional component can also be used to form the cooling air duct, and then the first condensation box and the second condensation box are attached to the additional component. However, in this case, an air cavity is likely to be formed between the additional component and the first condensation box and the second condensation box, and this air cavity will reduce the heat exchange efficiency. Therefore, by enclosing the first cover body and the second cover body to form a cooling air duct, the cooling effect can be improved.

[0022] Exemplarily, a flanging is provided at the edge of one of the first cover and the second cover. The flanging extends towards the other one of the first cover and the second cover and is connected to the other one of the first cover and the second cover to enclose and form a cooling air duct. Compared with the first box body and the second box body, the structures of the first cover and the second cover are simpler. Forming the cooling air duct by the first cover and the second cover will make the structure of the condensation assembly very simple.

[0023] Exemplarily, the first steam outlet is arranged on the first cover, and the second steam inlet is arranged on the second cover. A communicating pipe extends from the edge of one of the first steam outlet and the second steam inlet towards the other one of the first steam outlet and the second steam inlet, and the communicating pipe communicates between the first steam outlet and the second steam inlet. Processing the communicating pipe on the first cover or the second cover can reduce the number of components.

[0024] According to another aspect of the present invention, a cooking device is further provided. The cooking device includes: any one of the condensation assemblies as described above; and an inner container, an inner container steam outlet is arranged on the inner container, the condensation assembly is arranged outside the inner container, and the first steam inlet is connected to the inner container steam outlet. In this way, steam can sequentially pass through the inner container steam outlet and the first steam inlet, and thus can enter the first condensation box for condensation. In an embodiment where the first steam inlet can also be used as a condensate water outlet, the condensate water can sequentially pass through the first steam inlet and the inner container steam outlet, and thus can enter the inner container to be used for heating and evaporation again. In this way, the cooking device has a high utilization rate of water resources. Moreover, the cooking device can be provided without a water return pipeline connected between the inner container and the condensation assembly, and its structure is relatively simple and the manufacturing cost is low.

[0025] Exemplarily, the cooking device further includes a cooling fan, and the air outlet of the cooling fan communicates with the air inlet of the cooling air duct. The cooling fan can dissipate heat from the condensation assembly to improve the condensation effect of the condensation assembly.

[0026] Exemplarily, an air outlet is arranged on the front side of the cooking device, and the air outlet of the cooling air duct communicates with the air outlet. In this way, air can sequentially pass through the cooling air duct and the air outlet, and thus the heat can be taken out through the air outlet. Since the cooking device is usually placed in components such as a cabinet, its rear side and left and right sides usually face the cabinet, so it is not conducive to heat dissipation. And the air outlet on the front side can directly face the scenario where the condensation assembly is applied, which is conducive to heat dissipation. In this way, the heat taken out through the air outlet can quickly exchange heat with the scenario where the condensation assembly is applied, and the heat dissipation effect is good. Moreover, if there is still some steam discharged through the air outlet, the steam will not directly spray onto the cabinet, so that the cabinet will not get moldy. It should be noted that through the condensation effect of the condensation assembly, even if there is still some steam discharged through the air outlet, the temperature of the steam will usually be very low, so there is no risk of scalding the user.

Detailed implementation manners

[0041] In the following description, a large number of details are provided to enable a thorough understanding of the present invention. However, those skilled in the art can understand that the following description only exemplarily shows the preferred embodiments of the present invention, and the present invention can be implemented without one or more such details. In addition, in order to avoid confusion with the present invention, some well-known technical features in the art are not described in detail.

[0042] According to one aspect of the present invention, a condensation assembly is provided. The condensation assembly can be used to receive steam, so that the steam can be condensed to form condensed water. The condensation assembly can be applied to any suitable device, including but not limited to a cooking device. Therefore, according to another aspect of the present invention, a cooking device is also provided. The cooking device includes but is not limited to a steam box or a steam oven. The condensation assembly and the cooking device of the embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the drawings.

[0043] As Figure 1-2 shown, the condensation assembly 100 may include a first condensation box 200, a second condensation box 300, and a cooling air duct 110.

[0044] The first condensation box 200 may have a first steam inlet 201 and a first steam outlet 202. Steam may enter the first condensation box 200 through the first steam inlet 201, and then may be condensed within the first condensation box 200, thereby forming condensed water. The first condensation box 200 may include a first bottom wall. The side of the first bottom wall facing the interior of the first condensation box 200 may be the inner surface 203 of the bottom wall. The condensed water may fall onto the inner surface 203 of the bottom wall. When not all of the steam is condensed within the first condensation box 200, the remaining steam may flow out through the first steam outlet 202.

[0045] The second condensation box 300 may have a second steam inlet 301 and a second steam outlet 302. Steam may enter the second condensation box 300 through the second steam inlet 301, and then may be condensed within the second condensation box 300, thereby forming condensed water. The second condensation box 300 may include a second bottom wall. The side of the second bottom wall facing the interior of the second condensation box 300 may be the inner surface 303 of the bottom wall. The condensed water may fall onto the inner surface 303 of the bottom wall. When not all of the steam is condensed within the second condensation box 300, the remaining steam may flow out through the second steam outlet 302. Both the first condensation box 200 and the second condensation box 300 may be made of a material with good heat conductivity, such as metal.

[0046] The wind may pass through the cooling air duct 110 along the air supply direction P. The cooling air duct 110 may have an air inlet 111 and an air outlet 112. Specifically, the wind may flow along the air supply direction P, thereby entering the cooling air duct 110 through the air inlet 111, and then flowing out through the air outlet 112. Along the direction from the air inlet 111 to the air outlet 112 (i.e., the air supply direction P), the cooling air duct 110 may be linear, curved, or zigzag, etc. The wind may be provided by, for example, the following heat dissipation fan 420 or any other suitable component, or the wind may also be natural wind.

[0047] The first condensation box 200 and the second condensation box 300 may be arranged around the cooling air duct 110. The relative positions of the first condensation box 200 and the second condensation box 300 may be arbitrary. For example, one of them may be arranged on the upper side of the cooling air duct 110 in the vertical direction, and the other may be arranged on one side of the cooling air duct 110 in the horizontal direction; or, the first condensation box 200 and the second condensation box 300 may be arranged on both sides of the cooling air duct 110 in the horizontal direction. The first condensation box 200 and the second condensation box 300 may exchange heat with the cooling air duct 110. In this way, the heat on the first condensation box 200 and the second condensation box 300 may be transferred to the cooling air duct 110. Among them, the first steam outlet 202 may be directly or indirectly connected to the second steam inlet 301. The second steam outlet 302 may be directly or indirectly connected to the cooling air duct 110.

[0048] In practical applications of the condensation assembly 100, steam can enter the first condensation box 200 through the first steam inlet 201 and then be condensed within the first condensation box 200. When not all of the steam is condensed within the first condensation box 200, the remaining steam can successively pass through the first steam outlet 202 and the second steam inlet 301, thereby entering the second condensation box 300, where it can then be condensed. When not all of the steam is condensed within the second condensation box 300, the remaining steam can flow out through the second steam outlet 302. It can be understood that as the steam passes through, the steam will transfer its temperature to the first condensation box 200 and the second condensation box 300, causing the temperatures of the first condensation box 200 and the second condensation box 300 to rise. The outer surfaces of the first condensation box 200 and the second condensation box 300 are in contact with the scenario (such as a kitchen) where the condensation assembly 100 is applied, so that the temperature can be transferred to the scenario where the condensation assembly 100 is located, and natural cooling can thus be achieved. However, due to the relatively high temperature of the steam, relying on natural cooling cannot reduce the first condensation box 200 and the second condensation box 300 to the expected temperature, resulting in the temperatures of the first condensation box 200 and the second condensation box 300 remaining relatively high, and further causing a decline in the condensation effect. Since the first condensation box 200 and the second condensation box 300 are arranged around the cooling air duct 110, the cooling capacity of the cooling air duct 110 can be fully utilized to dissipate heat from the first condensation box 200 and the second condensation box 300, thereby improving the cooling efficiency. When air passes through the cooling air duct 110, the air can quickly carry away the heat around the cooling air duct 110, thus quickly cooling the first condensation box 200 and the second condensation box 300, and further greatly improving the condensation effect. Based on this, by adjusting parameters such as the air volume, air speed, and / or temperature of the air passing through the cooling air duct 110, the cooling effect on the first condensation box 200 and the second condensation box 300 can be controlled, and thus the temperatures of the first condensation box 200 and the second condensation box 300 can be controlled. In this way, according to parameters such as the flow rate and / or temperature of the steam, the parameters of the air passing through the cooling air duct 110 can be adjusted to make the condensation effect of the condensation assembly 100 meet the usage requirements.

[0049] In summary, for the condensation assembly 100 provided in the embodiments of the present invention, since the first condensation box 200 and the second condensation box 300 are provided, steam can sequentially pass through the first condensation box 200 and the second condensation box 300, resulting in a longer flow path of the steam, and the condensation effect of the condensation assembly 100 is better. Moreover, since the first condensation box 200 and the second condensation box 300 are arranged around the cooling air duct 110, when air passes through the cooling air duct 110, the cooling capacity of the condensation assembly 100 can be fully utilized, thereby greatly improving the condensation effect. In addition, by controlling the parameters of the air, the parameters of the steam passing through the condensation assembly 100 can be adapted to achieve more precise and dynamic control of the condensation effect of the condensation assembly 100 on the steam. In summary, the condensation assembly 100 can reduce the external discharge amount of steam discharged into the scenario in which it is applied, and can reduce the risk of scalding caused by the direct ejection of steam. In this way, the humidity in the scenario in which the condensation assembly 100 is applied will not be too high, the health of users can be guaranteed, and the probability of problems such as mildew occurring in components such as cabinets and electrical appliances can be reduced.

[0050] Exemplarily, as Figure 1-2 shown, the first condensation box 200 and the second condensation box 300 can be oppositely arranged on both sides of the cooling air duct 110. The cooling air duct 110 can be sandwiched between the first condensation box 200 and the second condensation box 300. Exemplarily, the first condensation box 200 and the second condensation box 300 can be on both sides of the cooling air duct 110 in the vertical direction. For example, the first condensation box 200 can be located on the lower side of the cooling air duct 110, and the second condensation box 300 can be located on the upper side of the cooling air duct 110; or the first condensation box 200 and the second condensation box 300 can be on both sides of the cooling air duct 110 in the horizontal direction. With such an arrangement, the first condensation box 200 and the second condensation box 300 can be separated by the cooling air duct 110, and the first condensation box 200 and the second condensation box 300 will not come into contact. Since steam passes through the first condensation box 200 and the second condensation box 300, the temperatures of the first condensation box 200 and the second condensation box 300 are relatively high, and the separated first condensation box 200 and second condensation box 300 will not directly transfer heat to each other, so the influence on each other is small.

[0051] Exemplarily, as Figure 3As shown, a first baffle 210 may be provided in the first condensation box 200. The first baffle 210 may include at least one, for example, it may be one, two or more. At least one first baffle 210 may be arranged side by side in any suitable direction. At least one first baffle 210 may partition out a plurality of first steam channels 220. The plurality of first steam channels 220 may be connected end to end in a serpentine shape. Moreover, the plurality of first steam channels 220 may be connected between the first steam inlet 201 and the first steam outlet 202. Referring to the dashed arrows in the figure, steam may enter through the first steam inlet 201 and then successively pass through the plurality of first steam channels 220. During this process, the steam may contact the channel walls of the plurality of first steam channels 220 (such as the first baffle 210 and / or the first condensation box 200), so that it can be condensed within the plurality of first steam channels 220, and then condensed water may be formed. If the steam cannot be completely condensed within the plurality of first steam channels 220, the remaining steam may flow out through the first steam outlet 202. Since the plurality of first steam channels 220 may be connected end to end in a serpentine shape, the total length of the plurality of first steam channels 220 is relatively long, and the flow path of the steam within the plurality of first steam channels 220 is relatively long. Also, the steam needs to change its flow direction at the beginning and end of each of the first steam channels 220, so its flow speed can be reduced, thereby increasing the flow time within the plurality of first steam channels 220. Therefore, the first condensation box 200 has a better effect on condensing the steam.

[0052] In some embodiments, such as Figure 7As shown, each of the multiple first steam channels 220 can span across the cooling air duct 110. The multiple first steam channels 220 can be arranged in sequence along the air supply direction P of the cooling air duct 110. That is to say, each of the multiple first steam channels 220 can be perpendicular to the air supply direction P. Among them, the multiple first steam channels 220 can include a first first steam channel 221 and a last first steam channel 222. The first first steam channel 221 can be communicated with the first steam inlet 201. The last first steam channel 222 can be communicated with the first steam outlet 202. Thus, referring to the dotted arrows in the figure, steam can enter through the first steam inlet 201, and then can successively pass through the first first steam channel 221 and the last first steam channel 222, and thus can flow out through the first steam outlet 202. Exemplarily, the first baffle 210 can include one, so that the multiple first steam channels 220 can only include the first first steam channel 221 and the last first steam channel 222, and the first first steam channel 221 and the last first steam channel 222 can be directly communicated. Exemplarily, the first baffle 210 can include multiple, so that the multiple first steam channels 220 can not only include the first first steam channel 221 and the last first steam channel 222, but also include other steam channels, and the first first steam channel 221 and the last first steam channel 222 can be communicated through the other steam channels. The first first steam channel 221 and the last first steam channel 222 can be arranged in sequence along the air supply direction P.

[0053] As the steam is condensed within the multiple first steam channels 220, the temperature of the steam will gradually decrease. Therefore, the temperature of the steam passing through the first first steam channel 221 is the highest. By making the first first steam channel 221 exchange heat with the cold air with the lowest temperature first, the temperature difference between the two is the largest, and the heat exchange efficiency is the highest. Moreover, since the first first steam channel 221 also spans across the cooling air duct, the first first steam channel 221 can be well cooled, and thus the cooling effect of the first condensation box 200 can be further improved.

[0054] The above only describes Figure 7 the differences between the Figure 1-6 illustrated embodiments and Figure 7 the differences between the Figure 1-6 illustrated embodiments. For the components that are the same or similar between the

[0055] In some embodiments, at least one first baffle 210 may be spaced apart from the inner surface 203 of the bottom wall of the first condensation box 200, so as to form a first reflux gap. The first reflux gap may be in fluid communication with the first steam inlet 201. In this way, the first baffle 210 does not block the condensed water, and the condensed water can converge on the inner surface 203 of the bottom wall of the first condensation box 200, thereby facilitating drainage. This reflux mode is particularly applicable to Figure 7 the arrangement of the first baffle 210 shown. In Figure 7 this arrangement, if the first reflux gap is not provided, dead corners will be formed between all the first baffles 210 downstream of the first steam channel 221, resulting in the deposition of condensed water in the first condensation box 200.

[0056] In some embodiments, the inner surface 203 of the bottom wall of the first condensation box 200 may be inclined downward toward the first steam inlet 201. Among them, the inner surface 203 of the bottom wall may have any suitable shape, such as a ramp shape, a funnel shape, or a triangular shape, etc. In this way, the first steam inlet 201 may be located at the lowest point of the inner surface 203 of the bottom wall. Exemplarily, the first steam inlet 201 may be directly provided at the lowest point of the inner surface 203 of the bottom wall; or, the first steam inlet 201 may be provided on the side wall of the first condensation box 200 connected to the lowest point of the inner surface 203 of the bottom wall. With such a setting, the condensed water formed after the steam condenses will flow along the inner surface 203 of the bottom wall to the first steam inlet 201 under the action of gravity, and thus can be discharged through the first steam inlet 201. Therefore, the first steam inlet 201 can also be used as a condensed water outlet to discharge the condensed water. In this way, condensed water is not likely to be deposited in the first condensation box 200, thereby avoiding the growth of bacteria and other dirt after long-term use, and further preventing components such as the second condensation box 300 and / or the following inner tank 410 connected thereto from being contaminated, and the health of users can be guaranteed. Moreover, there is no need to additionally provide a condensed water outlet on the first condensation box 200 and a return water pipeline connected between the condensed water outlet and the inner tank 410, which can simplify the structure of the first condensation box 200 and the cooking device 400 applying the condensation assembly 100. Preferably, the inner surface 203 of the bottom wall may form an angle of 5-10 degrees with the horizontal plane. With such a setting, it can ensure that the condensed water is discharged smoothly without significantly increasing the height of the first condensation box 200.

[0057] Exemplarily, as Figure 1-2As shown, the first condensation box 200 can be located below the cooling air duct 110. In this way, the second condensation box 300 can be located above the cooling air duct 110. Since the density of steam is generally less than that of air, steam usually flows upward. Based on this, the condensation assembly 100 can generally be located above the steam generating component (such as the inner tank 410 described below). And since the steam first passes through the first condensation box 200, the amount of condensed water in the first condensation box 200 is usually greater than that in the second condensation box 300. In this way, the distance between the first condensation box 200 and the steam generating component is relatively small, which can reduce the flow path of the refluxed condensed water, and thus facilitate the reflux of the condensed water into the steam generating component. Moreover, the condensed water will cause the first condensation box 200 to have a greater weight. Setting it below the cooling air duct 110 can prevent it from squeezing the cooling air duct 110 and the second condensation box 300, resulting in damage to the structure of the cooling air duct 110 and / or the second condensation box 300, thereby avoiding problems such as deformation or even cracking.

[0058] Exemplarily, as Figure 4 shown, a second baffle 310 can be provided in the second condensation box 300. The second baffle 310 can include at least one, for example, it can be one, two or more. At least one second baffle 310 can be arranged side by side in any suitable direction. At least one second baffle 310 can divide into multiple second steam channels 320. The multiple second steam channels 320 can be connected end to end in a snake shape. And the multiple second steam channels 320 can be connected between the second steam inlet 301 and the second steam outlet 302. Referring to the dotted arrows in the figure, steam can enter through the second steam inlet 301 and then pass through the multiple second steam channels 320 in sequence. During this process, the steam can contact the channel walls of the multiple second steam channels 320 (such as the second baffle 310 and / or the second condensation box 300), so that the steam can be condensed in the multiple second steam channels 320, and thus condensed water can be formed. If the steam cannot be completely condensed in the multiple second steam channels 320, the remaining steam can flow out through the second steam outlet 302. Since the multiple second steam channels 320 can be connected end to end in a snake shape, the total length of the multiple second steam channels 320 is relatively long, and the flow path of the steam in the multiple second steam channels 320 is long. And the steam needs to change the flow direction at the beginning and end of each second steam channel 320, so its flow speed can be reduced, thereby increasing the flow time in the multiple second steam channels 320. Therefore, the second condensation box 300 has a better effect on condensing steam.

[0059] Exemplarily, as Figure 4As shown, each of the multiple second steam channels 320 can extend along the air supply direction P of the cooling air duct 110. Moreover, the multiple second steam channels 320 can be arranged in sequence along the direction across the cooling air duct 110. That is to say, each of the multiple second steam channels 320 can be parallel to the air supply direction P or have a relatively small included angle with the air supply direction P. Compared with the first condensation box 200, the steam temperature in the second condensation box 300 is much lower, and the temperature difference between each of the second steam channels 320 is relatively small. Therefore, the second steam channels 320 in the second condensation box 300 can be extended along the air supply direction P. In this way, dead corners that hinder the backflow of condensed water will not be formed. Further, since there are no backflow dead corners and the amount of condensed water in the second condensation box 300 is also relatively small, it is possible to consider not providing a second backflow gap similar to the first backflow gap.

[0060] Of course, in some embodiments, at least one second baffle 310 can be spaced apart from the inner surface 303 of the bottom wall of the second condensation box 300, so as to form a second backflow gap. The second backflow gap can be in fluid communication with the second steam inlet 301. In this way, the second baffle 310 does not block the condensed water, and the condensed water can converge on the inner surface 303 of the bottom wall of the second condensation box 300, thus facilitating the discharge.

[0061] In some embodiments, the inner surface 303 of the bottom wall of the second condensation box 300 may be inclined downward toward the second steam inlet 301. The inner surface 303 of the bottom wall may be in any suitable shape, such as a ramp shape, a funnel shape, or a triangular shape, etc. In this way, the second steam inlet 301 may be located at the lowest point of the inner surface 303 of the bottom wall. Exemplarily, the second steam inlet 301 may be directly disposed at the lowest point of the inner surface 303 of the bottom wall; or, the second steam inlet 301 may be disposed on the side wall of the second condensation box 300 connected to the lowest point of the inner surface 303 of the bottom wall. With such a setting, the condensed water formed after the steam condenses will flow along the inner surface 303 of the bottom wall to the second steam inlet 301 under the action of gravity, and thus can be discharged to the first condensation box 200 through the second steam inlet 301, and then can merge with the condensed water in the first condensation box 200 for convenient discharge together. Therefore, the second steam inlet 301 can also serve as a condensed water outlet to discharge the condensed water. In this way, condensed water is not likely to accumulate in the second condensation box 300, thereby avoiding the growth of bacteria and other dirt after long-term use, and further preventing components such as the first condensation box 200 and / or the following inner liner 410, etc. connected thereto from being contaminated, and the health of the user can be guaranteed. Moreover, there is no need to additionally provide a condensed water outlet on the second condensation box 300 and a return water pipeline connected between the condensed water outlet and the first condensation box 200, which can simplify the structure of the second condensation box 300 and the cooking device 400 applying the condensation assembly 100. Preferably, the inner surface 303 of the bottom wall may form an angle of 5-10 degrees with the horizontal plane. With such a setting, it can ensure that the condensed water is discharged smoothly without significantly increasing the height of the second condensation box 300.

[0062] In some embodiments, a circular flange may extend upward from the edge of the second steam outlet 302. The circular flange may be higher than the inner surface 303 of the bottom wall of the second condensation box 300. The circular flange can play a role in blocking the condensed water, thereby preventing the condensed water from flowing through the second steam outlet 302 to the cooling air duct 110. Once the condensed water flows into the cooling air duct 110, when the air passes through the cooling air duct 110, it will cause the condensed water to be blown out, resulting in the condensed water splashing onto various components, and further possibly causing problems such as short circuit and / or mildew. Therefore, by providing the circular flange, the use experience of the condensation assembly 100 is better.

[0063] Exemplarily, such as Figure 2As shown in FIGS. 5 - 6, the first steam outlet 202 and the second steam inlet 301 can be communicated with each other through a connecting pipe 120. The connecting pipe 120 can be made of a material with good heat conduction performance such as metal. In this way, steam can sequentially pass through the first steam outlet 202, the connecting pipe 120 and the second steam inlet 301, and thus can enter the second condensation box 300. The connecting pipe 120 can be located in the cooling air duct 110. With such an arrangement, the first condensation box 200 and the second condensation box 300 can be separated, so that heat cannot be directly transferred between them, and thus the influence on each other is relatively small. Moreover, when the steam passes through the connecting pipe 120, the air passing through the cooling air duct 110 can quickly cool down the steam. In addition, the connecting pipe 120 can also play a supporting role, so as to inhibit damage to the structure of the cooling air duct 110, and further avoid problems such as deformation or even cracking.

[0064] Exemplarily, as Figure 1-2 shown, the first steam outlet 202 and the second steam inlet 301 can be oppositely arranged on both sides of the cooling air duct 110. With such an arrangement, the connecting pipe 120 can be a straight-through pipe. In this way, the structure of the connecting pipe 120 is relatively simple, which is convenient for processing and manufacturing. Moreover, the supporting effect of the connecting pipe 120 is better.

[0065] Exemplarily, as Figure 2 shown in FIGS. 5, the connecting pipe 120 can be adjacent to the side wall of the cooling air duct 110. When the air passes through the cooling air duct 110, the connecting pipe 120 will inevitably block the air, thus increasing the air resistance. By making the connecting pipe 120 adjacent to the side wall of the cooling air duct 110, the influence on the air can be minimized as much as possible to avoid excessive air resistance.

[0066] Exemplarily, as Figure 1-6As shown, the first condensation box 200 may include a first box body 230 and a first cover body 240. The first box body 230 may have a first opening. The first cover body 240 may cover the first opening. In this way, the first box body 230 and the first cover body 240 may enclose to form a first condensation space to facilitate the condensation of steam. The first box body 230 and the first cover body 240 may be connected by any suitable means such as welding, snap connection or connection by a connecting member. The second condensation box 300 may include a second box body 330 and a second cover body 340. The second box body 330 may have a second opening. The second cover body 340 may cover the second opening. In this way, the second box body 330 and the second cover body 340 may enclose to form a second condensation space to facilitate the condensation of steam. The second box body 330 and the second cover body 340 may be connected by any suitable means such as welding, snap connection or connection by a connecting member. The first cover body 240 and the second cover body 340 may be disposed opposite to each other. Moreover, the first cover body 240 and the second cover body 340 may enclose to form a cooling air duct 110. Using a part of the first condensation box 200 and the second condensation box 300 to form the cooling air duct 110 can simplify the structure of the condensation assembly 100 and facilitate processing and manufacturing. Of course, it is also possible to form the cooling air duct 110 using additional components and then attach the first condensation box 200 and the second condensation box 300 to the additional components. However, in this case, an air cavity is likely to be formed between the additional components and the first condensation box 200 and the second condensation box 300, and this air cavity will reduce the efficiency of heat exchange. Therefore, forming the cooling air duct 110 by enclosing the first cover body 240 and the second cover body 340 can improve the cooling effect.

[0067] Exemplarily, as Figure 1-6 shown, a flange 241 may be provided at the edge of one of the first cover body 240 and the second cover body 340. The flange 241 may extend towards the other of the first cover body 240 and the second cover body 340 and be connected to the other of the first cover body 240 and the second cover body 340. In this way, the cooling air duct 110 can be enclosed. In the embodiment shown in the figure, the flange 241 may be provided at the edge of the first cover body 240, and the flange 241 may extend towards the second cover body 340 and be connected to the second cover body 340. The first cover body 240 and the second cover body 340 may be processed from a sheet material. For example, the cover body without the flange 241 (such as the second cover body 340) can be processed into a sheet, and the flange 241 can be processed on the other cover body (such as the first cover body 240), which is very easy to achieve in terms of process. Moreover, compared with the first box body 230 and the second box body 330, the first cover body 240 and the second cover body 340 have a simpler structure. Forming the cooling air duct 110 by the first cover body 240 and the second cover body 340 will make the structure of the condensation assembly 100 very simple.

[0068] Exemplarily, as Figure 2-6As shown, the first steam outlet 202 can be provided on the first cover 240. The second steam inlet 301 can be provided on the second cover 340. The edge of one of the first steam outlet 202 and the second steam inlet 301 can extend towards the other of the first steam outlet 202 and the second steam inlet 301 with a connecting pipe 120. The connecting pipe 120 can be connected between the first steam outlet 202 and the second steam inlet 301. The connecting pipe 120 can be fixed to the first cover 240 or the second cover 340 by welding. The first steam outlet 202 and the second steam inlet 301 can be arranged opposite to each other, so that the length of the connecting pipe 120 can be shortened, and the connecting pipe 120 can be perpendicular to the first cover 240 and the second cover 340, which is more convenient for processing. Processing the connecting pipe 120 on the first cover 240 or the second cover 340 can reduce the number of components.

[0069] In an embodiment where the condensation assembly 100 is applied to the cooking device 400, as Figure 8-9 shown, the cooking device 400 may further include an inner container 410. When the cooking device 400 is operating, the evaporation tray inside it can heat the water in the inner container 410 so that the water can evaporate into steam. The steam can circulate in the inner container 410 to heat items such as food inside the inner container 410. To prevent excessive accumulation of steam in the inner container 410 resulting in excessive pressure, an inner container steam outlet 411 can be provided on the inner container 410. The steam can be discharged from the inner container 410 through the inner container steam outlet 411. The condensation assembly 100 can be provided outside the inner container 410. Usually, the condensation assembly 100 can be provided above the inner container 410. The inner container steam outlet 411 can be directly or connected to the first steam inlet 201 of the first condensation box 200 through components such as pipelines. In this way, the steam can sequentially pass through the inner container steam outlet 411 and the first steam inlet 201, and thus can enter the first condensation box 200 for condensation. In an embodiment where the first steam inlet 201 can also serve as a condensate water outlet, the condensate water can sequentially pass through the first steam inlet 201 and the inner container steam outlet 411, and thus can enter the inner container 410 to be used for heating and evaporation again. In this way, the cooking device 400 has a high utilization rate of water resources. And, the cooking device 400 can eliminate the need to provide a return water pipeline connected between the inner container 410 and the condensation assembly 100, and its structure is relatively simple and the manufacturing cost is low.

[0070] Exemplarily, as Figure 8-9As shown, the cooking device 400 may further include a cooling fan 420. The cooling fan 420 may be disposed outside the inner container 410. The cooling fan 420 includes, but is not limited to, an axial flow fan or a centrifugal fan. The air outlet of the cooling fan 420 may communicate with the air inlet 111 of the cooling air duct 110, so that air can quickly pass through the cooling air duct 110 to take away the heat around the cooling air duct 110, thereby achieving a better heat dissipation effect. In this way, the cooling fan 420 can dissipate heat from the condensation assembly 100 to improve the condensation effect of the condensation assembly 100.

[0071] Exemplarily, as Figure 8-9 shown, the cooking device 400 may further include an air outlet 430. The air outlet 430 may be disposed on the front side of the cooking device 400. The front side is generally the side facing the user. The air outlet 112 of the cooling air duct 110 may communicate directly or indirectly with the air outlet 430. In this way, air can sequentially pass through the cooling air duct 110 and the air outlet 430, so that heat can be taken out through the air outlet 430. Since the cooking device 400 is usually placed in components such as a cabinet, its rear side and left and right sides usually face the cabinet, so it is not conducive to heat dissipation. The air outlet 430 on the front side can directly face the scenario where the condensation assembly 100 is applied, which is conducive to heat dissipation. In this way, the heat taken out through the air outlet 430 can quickly exchange heat with the scenario where the condensation assembly 100 is applied, and the heat dissipation effect is better. And, if there is still some steam discharged through the air outlet 430, the steam will not directly spray onto the cabinet, thus preventing the cabinet from getting moldy. It should be noted that through the condensation effect of the condensation assembly 100, even if there is still some steam discharged through the air outlet 430, the temperature of the steam will usually be very low, so there is no risk of scalding the user.

[0072] Exemplarily, as Figure 8-9 shown, the cooking device 400 may further include a bottom plate 441 and a cover 442. The bottom plate 441 may be disposed above the inner container 410. The condensation assembly 100 may be disposed on the bottom plate 441. The cover 442 may be connected to the bottom plate 441. The cover 442 and the bottom plate 441 may enclose to form an external exhaust air duct 443. The external exhaust air duct 443 may communicate between the air outlet 112 of the cooling air duct 110 and the air outlet 430. In this way, air can sequentially pass through the cooling air duct 110, the external exhaust air duct 443 and the air outlet 430, so that heat can be taken out through the air outlet 430.

[0073] Exemplarily, as Figure 8-9 shown, a door body 450 and a control panel 460 may further be disposed on the front side of the cooking device 400. The door body 450 may be used to open and close the inner container 410. The control panel 460 may be used to control components such as the cooling fan 420 and / or the evaporation tray, and display parameters such as the temperature inside the inner container 410.
