Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention particularly relates to electric flame cookers. Background Art

[0002] In today's society, electric flame cookers are becoming increasingly popular and widely used as fast and efficient cooking devices. The main operating principle of electric flame cookers is to create an arc through the electric shock of electrodes, using the Joule heat of the arc to heat the cookware. However, the ozone generated by traditional electric flame cookers has gradually attracted attention. Ozone is a strong oxidant that is harmful to the human respiratory system and eyes, and long-term exposure may cause health problems. Therefore, various electric flame cookers with features that can suppress ozone emissions have been developed.

[0003] For example, patent application number CN202311071564.X proposes an electric flame stove that can suppress ozone. This prior art uses a small amount of hydrogen to participate in combustion, which rapidly decomposes the ozone formed by the discharge into water mist and oxygen.

[0004] However, in actual use of this invention patent, the hydrogen tank poses a safety hazard and needs to be replaced frequently, causing trouble to users.

[0005] In addition, each high-voltage discharge device in this invention patent uses an electrode needle to ionize the gas, and the plasma flows rapidly with the airflow, so the electron density cannot be increased, resulting in low efficiency. Even if a high-power current is input, the energy of the high-power input is difficult to convert into the "high-energy state" of the plasma (particle excited state, dissociated state), but instead produces a large amount of loss.

[0006] Therefore, the present invention aims to provide an electric flame cooker which reduces ozone emission, has no potential safety hazard and is highly efficient. Summary of the Invention

[0034] In addition, the technical features involved in the different embodiments of the present invention described later can be combined with each other as long as they do not conflict with each other.

[0035] See also Figures 1 to 5 In an embodiment of the present invention, an electric flame stove capable of eliminating ozone includes:

[0036] The stove body 1 has a mounting ring 11 at its bottom, and the circuit module is housed inside the stove body 1;

[0037] The burner head 2 is an annular cavity structure and is installed in the mounting ring 11 of the stove body 1. Its inner wall encloses a first furnace 200, and multiple plasma torches 21 are evenly installed on its inner wall. The plasma torches 21 have multiple air inlet holes 210, so that the interior of the burner head 2 is connected to the interior of the plasma torches 21. The burner head 2 is also equipped with a first air inlet device 6 to supply air to the inner cavity of the burner head 2;

[0038] The magnetic energy box 3 is a metal structure, which houses a second furnace 300. A second air inlet device 7 is provided at the bottom of the magnetic energy box 3. A pot ring 4 is also installed at the top of the magnetic energy box 3. A microwave emitting port 31 and a cooling groove 32 are provided on the side wall of the second furnace 300.

[0039] The magnetron 5 is installed inside the magnetic energy box 3 at the microwave emission port 31 .

[0040] The present invention adopts the coaxial design of the double hearth and the pot ring 4, and the double hearth and the pot ring 4 are mutually connected up and down. The bottom of the first hearth 200 can be hollow or closed, and an air intake fan can also be installed at the same time. Example 1

[0041] When the electric flame stove is working normally, a pot is placed on the pot ring 4, and the first air inlet device 6 supplies gas (air) to the inner cavity of the burner 2, and the gas enters the torch body of the plasma torch 21 through the air inlet hole 210;

[0042] The circuit module outputs 10kV high voltage electricity to the plasma torch 21. The high voltage electricity breaks down the gas to generate high-temperature initial plasma above 1000°C. Multiple initial plasmas are ejected and gathered near the central axis of the first furnace 200. Under the action of "thermal buoyancy", the gathered initial plasmas enter the second furnace 300.

[0043] The pot detection device 41 detects that there is a pot above the pot ring 4, and turns on the microwave switch to put the magnetron 5 into working state. The high-frequency electromagnetic waves emitted by the magnetron 5 are absorbed by the initial plasma.

[0044] When high-power electromagnetic waves enter the plasma, they trigger an "electron avalanche effect" phenomenon, and the electron density in the plasma increases sharply. At this time, the plasma can absorb high-power electromagnetic waves, greatly increasing the plasma ionization degree, and forming a microwave-excited plasma of 1500-2000℃ in the furnace, which meets the high-temperature cooking needs such as stir-frying in the kitchen. Example 2

[0045] When high-voltage breakdown ionization generates the initial plasma, oxygen ions O⁺ easily combine with unionized oxygen molecules O2 to form ozone O3;

[0046] The high-frequency electromagnetic waves emitted by the magnetron 5 accelerate the reaction of active particles in the plasma (oxygen ions O⁺ or oxygen atoms O) with ozone (O+O3→2O2), ultimately accelerating the decomposition and reduction of ozone molecules and suppressing ozone overflow. Example 3

[0047] The burner head 2, the magnetic energy box 3 and the pot ring 4 of the present invention are all made of metal materials, and the metal conductor has a shielding effect on electromagnetic waves.

[0048] When in the "pot" state, the density of plasma in the double furnace is relatively high. At this time, the plasma absorbs electromagnetic waves like metal, thereby playing an electromagnetic shielding role.

[0049] Even in actual application, a small amount of electromagnetic waves may leak out, but metal pots (iron pots) are usually used for cooking, which further shield the electromagnetic waves. Therefore, the present invention is more suitable for metal pots.

[0050] When in the "no pot" state, the density of plasma in the double furnace is relatively low. At this time, the microwave switch is disconnected and the magnetron 5 stops working, thus eliminating microwave leakage from the source. Example 4

[0051] Cooling grooves 32 are distributed in an annular pattern along the sidewall of the second furnace 300. Each cooling groove 32 is elongated, with its outlet tangentially extending along the sidewall of the second furnace 300. Therefore, the second air inlet device 7 introduces air into the interior of the magnetic energy box 3. Under pressure, the gas flows along the annular sidewall, forming a continuous gas barrier ("gas wall") surrounding the second furnace 300. This "gas wall" creates a physical barrier between the sidewall of the second furnace 300 and the ultrahigh-temperature excited plasma, protecting the magnetron 5 and the sidewall of the second furnace 300 from the effects of ultrahigh temperatures.

[0052] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that the present invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above and that the invention can be embodied in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of the invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered in all respects as illustrative and non-restrictive, and the scope of the invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description, and it is intended that all variations that come within the meaning and range of equivalents of the claims be embraced therein.
