Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of cooking appliances, and more particularly to a stew pot with a water replenishing function. Background Art

[0002] Stewpots are a common household cooking appliance. During cooking, the water in the inner pot turns into boiling steam, which is released through the vents in the lid. Steaming and stewing food typically takes a long time, especially slow cooking, which can take up to ten hours. To prevent the water from drying out and requiring refilling mid-cook, existing stewpots often have larger inner pots, leaving a wider gap between the inner wall and the stewing pot, allowing for more water to be added at once. However, this increases the area for water evaporation, accelerating water loss and causing the water level to drop. This reduces the coverage of the stewing pot with hot water, resulting in uneven heating and affecting the cooking of the food inside. Furthermore, existing stewpots lack automatic refilling, requiring manual refilling mid-cooking, which is cumbersome and needs improvement. Summary of the Invention

[0038] The above-mentioned stew pot with a water replenishing function can initially inject a large amount of water into the inner pot. During the later cooking and evaporation process, the soft rubber film is squeezed and pushed by the pushing mechanism to reduce the internal space of the inner pot, thereby maintaining the internal water level at a desired height position, so that the hot water can maintain sufficient coverage of the heating surface outside the stew pot, thereby improving stewing efficiency and quality and increasing heat utilization rate.

[0039] Moreover, the lid is cleverly used as a water storage part, which does not occupy external space and makes the overall structure more compact. It also allows the lid to have a certain weight so that it will not be easily lifted up by steam and accelerate heat loss. After the pushing mechanism starts working, the space inside the inner pot is maintained after being squeezed and pushed, and the water is added in an appropriate amount during subsequent replenishment, which reduces the energy consumption of secondary heating, power consumption and waste.

When the electromagnet is energized, it can drive the magnet block downward, pry up the plug, and release the blockage of the drain hole. The magnetic attraction is used as the power to release the blocking component. On the one hand, it can realize the drainage on demand, and on the other hand, it can maintain the sealing of the water storage chamber to prevent the internal liquid from easily flowing out.

[0046] Furthermore, the vertical opening length of the perforation is between 1 / 2 and 3 / 4 of the depth of the inner liner, and the angle between the two ends of the perforation and the center of the inner liner is between 70° and 80°. This can maintain the required structural strength of the inner liner and prevent it from being easily deformed and damaged. It can also provide a sufficiently large deformation space to facilitate the pushing member to push inward a sufficient distance, making the internal space change of the inner liner more obvious.

[0047] The bottom of the sink is provided with a wire hole connected to the inside of the shell for wiring the electromagnet; and the installation connection between the electromagnet and the sink is filled with sealant to prevent water seepage and leakage.

[0048] It should be noted that the soft film is a closed-loop silicone film structure, and the inner liner is made of a plastic including but not limited to PEEK, PESU, and PPS. The soft film and the inner liner are an integrally molded structure and can be placed in a molding mold before the inner liner is produced and processed, so that the inner liner is wrapped around the soft film to ensure the connection strength and stability of the overall structure and prevent the soft film from falling off or being damaged.

[0049] Furthermore, a first protrusion or a first groove is fixedly provided on the bottom inner wall of the inner pot, and a second groove or a second protrusion is correspondingly provided on the bottom of the matching stewing pot, which limits the placement position of the stewing pot so that it is placed in the center, and the space on the side wall is left to push the soft film, which is convenient for actual operation;
