[0058] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be described in more detail below in conjunction with the drawings in the preferred embodiments of the present invention. In the drawings, the same or similar reference numerals throughout represent the same or similar elements or elements with the same or similar functions. The described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. The embodiments described below with reference to the drawings are exemplary and are intended to be used to explain the present invention, and should not be understood as limiting the present invention. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention. The embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below in conjunction with the drawings.

[0059] In the description of this embodiment, it should be understood that the terms "center", "longitudinal", "lateral", "up", "down", "front", "back", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inside", "outside", etc., indicating the orientation or position relationship, are based on the orientation or position relationship shown in the accompanying drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing this embodiment and simplifying the description, rather than indicating or implying that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore cannot be understood as limiting the scope of protection of this embodiment.

[0060] like Figure 1 As shown, an embodiment of the present invention provides a storage box, which is applied to cooking equipment. The storage box can be used to store liquid seasonings, solid seasonings and other materials for cooking. The storage box includes a box body 1, and the box body 1 includes a storage cavity 11 and an opening 12 connected to the storage cavity 11. The opening 12 is used for people to take or store seasonings; a guide portion is arranged on the box body 1, and is used to prevent the liquid on the box body 1 from flowing to the storage cavity 11 through the opening 12.

[0061] The storage box provided in an embodiment of the present invention has a guide portion provided on the box body 1. The guide portion can prevent the liquid on the box body 1 from flowing into the storage cavity 11 through the opening 12 of the storage box. In this way, when the oil stains and other liquids from the range hood drip onto the box body 1, the liquid will not be able to flow into the storage cavity 11 due to the obstruction of the guide portion, thereby preventing the oil stains and other liquids from contaminating the storage cavity 11, and further preventing the contamination of the seasoning, thereby ensuring food safety.

[0062] In the embodiment of the present invention, see Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figure 3 The guide portion may include a first guide groove 31, which is arranged at the opening portion 12. The first guide groove 31 is adjacent to the top surface of the box body 1 and extends along the circumference of the opening portion 12. The first guide groove 31 is connected to the top of the box body 1. The first guide groove 31 is used to store or buffer the liquid flowing down from the top surface of the box body 1.

[0063] When liquids such as oil drop into the box body 1, since the first guide groove 31 is adjacent to the top surface of the box body 1 and is connected to the top of the box body 1, and the first guide groove 31 extends along the circumference of the opening 12, the liquid flowing from the top surface of the box body 1 to the opening 12 will directly flow into the first guide groove 31, so that the first guide groove 31 stores or buffers the liquid, thereby preventing the liquid from flowing into the storage chamber.

[0064] Among them, the first guide groove 31 is set at the opening 12, which can ensure that liquids such as oil and dirt dripping to various positions on the top surface of the box body 1 can flow to the first guide groove 31, thereby improving the reliability of the guide part in hindering the flow of liquid to the storage chamber 11.

[0065] It can be understood that the first guide groove 31 extends along the circumference of the opening 12. Specifically, the first guide groove 31 can span the entire top of the opening 12 to ensure that it can store or buffer liquid flowing from various positions on the top of the box body 1.

[0066] In order to discharge the oil and other liquids in the first guide groove 31, in the embodiment of the present invention, see Figure 2 、 Figure 3 and Figure 4 At least one guide port 311 is formed on the wall of the first guide slot 31 ; the guide portion further includes at least one guide channel 32 , the inlet of the guide channel 32 is connected to the corresponding guide port 311 , and the outlet of the guide channel 32 is away from the opening 12 .

[0067] Since the guide port 311 is formed on the wall of the first guide groove 31 , the liquid such as oil flowing into the first guide groove 31 will flow into the guide channel 32 through the guide port 311 and then be discharged from the guide channel 32 .

[0068] In the above embodiment, since the outlet of the guide channel 32 is arranged away from the opening portion 12, the liquid discharged from the guide channel 32 will be away from the opening portion 12, thereby better preventing the liquid from entering the storage chamber 11 through the opening portion 12, and further better preventing the liquid from contaminating the storage chamber 11 and contaminating the seasoning.

[0069] In the embodiment of the present invention, see Figure 4 The box body 1 is provided with at least one drain port 13 connected to the storage chamber 11, and the drain port 13 is located on both sides of the box body 1 or at one end away from the outlet portion 12; the guide channel 32 is arranged in the storage chamber 11, and the outlet of the guide channel 32 is connected to the drain port 13.

[0070] In the above embodiment, the diversion channel 32 is disposed in the storage chamber 11, with its inlet communicating with the diversion port 311 and its outlet communicating with the drain port 13, thereby directing the liquid in the first diversion groove 31 to the drain port 13, and ultimately discharging the liquid out of the housing 1. Specifically, the diversion channel 32 may be an oil guide line.

[0071] Moreover, the guide channel 32 is arranged in the storage cavity 11 instead of being exposed outside the box body 1, which not only protects the guide channel 32 but also ensures the overall aesthetics of the storage box.

[0072] In order to facilitate the discharge of liquids such as oil and dirt from the storage box, in the embodiment of the present invention, see Figure 4 The height of the guide port 311 relative to the bottom surface of the box body 1 is greater than the height of the drain port 13 relative to the bottom surface of the box body 1, so that the liquid can flow to the drain port 13 under the action of its own gravity and be discharged from the storage box through the drain port 13.

[0073] The flow channel 32 may be an oil-conducting pipeline. The oil-conducting pipeline may include a rigid pipeline and a flexible pipeline connected to each other. The rigid pipeline is connected to the flow guide port 311, and the flexible pipeline is connected to the liquid discharge port 13. Since the flexible pipeline is bendable, the oil-conducting pipeline can adapt to a higher flow guide port and a lower liquid discharge port, resulting in a simple structure and low cost.

[0074] Of course, the discharge of liquids such as oil is not limited to the above-mentioned method of using the guide channel 32. In some other embodiments of the present invention, see Figure 5 The first guide groove 31 includes a first end and a second end arranged on both sides of the box body 1, the first end is connected to the second end, at least one of the first end and the second end is a first open end, and the first open end extends to the side of the box body 1; or, the first open end faces the side of the box body 1.

[0075] In the above embodiment, at least one of the first end and the second end of the first guide groove 31 is a first open end, and the first open end extends to the side of the box body 1 or is arranged toward the side of the box body 1, so that the liquid in the first guide groove 31 can flow to the side of the box body 1, thereby discharging the liquid. Moreover, in this process, the liquid will not flow to the opening 12, and thus cannot flow into the storage chamber 11, thereby avoiding liquids such as oil from contaminating the storage chamber 11.

[0076] In the embodiment of the present invention, see Figure 2 and Figure 5 , the first guide groove 31 can be protrudingly provided on the end surface of the opening portion 12 ; or, the first guide groove 31 can be recessedly opened on the top surface of the box body 1 , and the first guide groove 31 is located at the opening portion 12 .

[0077] That is to say, no matter whether the first guide groove 31 is convex or concave, as long as it can store or buffer the liquid left from the top surface of the box body 1, the present application does not limit the setting method of the first guide groove 31, and it can be selected according to actual needs during implementation.

[0078] In the embodiment of the present invention, see Figure 6 The box body 1 may further include a closed portion 14 opposite to the opening portion 12; the guide portion may include an inclined surface 33, which is arranged at the top of the box body 1 and covers the top of the box body 1; along the direction from the opening portion 12 to the closed portion 14, the height of the inclined surface 33 relative to the bottom surface of the box body 1 gradually decreases.

[0079] Among them, the inclined surface 33 can be the top surface of the box body 1. Since the height of the inclined surface 33 relative to the bottom surface of the box body 1 gradually decreases along the direction from the opening 12 to the closed portion 14, after liquids such as oil droplets fall on the inclined surface 33, they can flow along the inclined surface 33 toward the closed portion 14 under the action of their own gravity, and will not flow toward the opening portion 12, so that the liquid cannot flow into the storage chamber 11 through the opening portion 12, thereby preventing liquids such as oil from contaminating the storage chamber 11.

[0080] It can be understood that when the storage box is in an installed state and is working normally, the height of the inclined surface 33 relative to the bottom surface of the box body 1 gradually decreases along the direction from the opening portion 12 to the closed portion 14.

[0081] In the embodiment of the present invention, see Figure 7 and Figure 8 The guide portion may include a protrusion 34 , which is protrudingly provided on the top surface of the box body 1 and extends to both sides of the box body 1 ; the protrusion 34 is provided close to the opening 12 .

[0082] Since the protrusion 34 is protrudingly provided on the top surface of the box body 1, the protrusion 34 can prevent the liquid dripping on the top surface of the box body 1 from flowing toward the opening 12, so that the liquid cannot flow into the storage cavity 11 through the opening 12, thereby preventing liquid such as oil from contaminating the storage cavity 11. Specifically, the protrusion can be a baffle structure.

[0083] Moreover, the protrusion 34 is arranged close to the opening 12, which can ensure that liquids such as oil and dirt dripping to various positions on the top surface of the box body 1 can be blocked by the protrusion 34, thereby improving the reliability of the guide part in preventing the liquid from flowing to the storage chamber 11.

[0084] In the embodiment of the present invention, see Figure 9 The guide portion may further include at least two second guide grooves 35, at least two second guide grooves 35 are arranged at the opening portion 12, at least two second guide grooves 35 are adjacent to the top surface of the box body 1, and are arranged at intervals along the circumference of the opening portion 12, and the second guide grooves 35 extend along the circumference of the opening portion 12 and the box body 1; one end of the second guide groove 35 is a second opening end, and the second opening end extends to the side of the box body 1; or, the second opening end faces the side of the box body 1.

[0085] At least two second guide grooves 35 may be located on both sides of the opening 12 .

[0086] For the aforementioned solution in which the guide portion includes an inclined surface 33 and a protrusion 34, if liquids such as oil drip onto the two sides of the top of the housing 1, the inclined surface 33 or the protrusion 34 may not be able to effectively block the liquid. In the above embodiment, by providing a second guide groove 35, liquids that drip onto the two sides of the top of the housing 1 can flow to the second guide groove 35. Since the second open end of the second guide groove 35 extends to the side of the housing 1 or toward the side of the housing 1, the liquid flowing to the second guide groove 35 can be discharged to the side of the housing 1. In this process, the second guide groove 35 plays a role of secondary protection, further improving the reliability of the guide portion in blocking the liquid, ensuring that the liquid cannot flow into the storage chamber 11 through the opening 12.

[0087] In an embodiment of the present invention, if the guide portion includes the aforementioned protrusion 34, the second guide groove 35 and the protrusion 34 have an overlapping portion in the depth direction of the storage chamber 11, that is, the second guide groove 35 and the protrusion 34 have no gap in the circumferential direction of the box body 1, thereby preventing the liquid from flowing to the opening 12 through the gap, thereby improving the secondary protection effect of the second guide groove 35.

[0088] In the embodiment of the present invention, see Figures 10 to 14The storage box may further include a door body 4, which is rotatably connected to the box body 1 via a hinge 5 to open or close the opening 12; when the door body 4 closes the opening 12, the hinge 5 is located in the storage cavity 11. The hinge 5 is a hidden hinge.

[0089] When the door body 4 closes the opening 12, the hinge 5 is located in the storage cavity 11 instead of being exposed outside the box body 1. On the one hand, it can protect the hinge, and on the other hand, it improves the appearance of the storage box.

[0090] In the embodiment of the present invention, see Figure 11 The hinge 5 may include a main body 51 and a rotating shaft 52. The rotating shaft 52 is rotatably arranged on the top surface of the storage chamber 11 and close to the opening 12. One end of the main body 51 is connected to the inner surface of the door body 4, and the other end of the main body 51 is connected to the rotating shaft 52. The main body 51 is used to rotate with the rotating shaft 52 as the axis as the door body 4 rotates.

[0091] Among them, one end of the main body 51 is connected to the inner surface of the door body 4, and the rotating shaft 52 connected to the other end of the main body 51 is arranged on the top surface of the storage cavity 11, so that the hinge 5 is located between the door body 4 and the box body 1 when the door body 4 opens the opening 12, and is located in the storage cavity 11 when the door body 4 closes the opening 12, thereby realizing the hidden structure of the hinge 5, which is simple in structure and reliable in use.

[0092] Further, in the embodiment of the present invention, see Figure 10 When the door body 4 is in the open state, the door body 4 can be above the opening 12 of the box body 1, that is, the door body 4 can cover the opening 12 of the box body 1. With such a structural arrangement, on the one hand, the door body 4 can prevent liquids such as oil from dripping directly into the opening 12, thereby assisting the guide part and better preventing liquids such as oil from contaminating the storage chamber 11; moreover, the door body 4 can also prevent foreign matter from falling between the door body 4 and the box body 1 and affecting the normal opening and closing of the door body 4; on the other hand, the door body 4 can also block the hinge 5 above the hinge 5, as well as the gap between the door body 4 and the box body 1, further improving the appearance of the storage box.

[0093] In the embodiment of the present invention, see Figures 10 to 14 The guide portion is protrudingly provided on the end surface of the opening portion 12; the body 51 may include a relief portion 511, which is used to avoid the guide portion when the body 51 opens or closes the opening portion 12 along with the door body 4, so as to prevent the body 51 from interfering with the opening and closing of the door body 4. Specifically, the relief portion 511 is used to avoid the first guide groove 31.

[0094] The avoidance portion 511 can have various structural forms, as long as it can avoid the guide portion during the door opening and closing process. For example, the body 51 can include a avoidance opening, which is the avoidance portion 511, and the guide portion can be inserted into the avoidance opening during the door opening and closing process.

[0095] In the embodiment of the present invention, see Figure 11 The main body 51 may include an arc surface, which is the avoidance portion 511. When the door body 4 opens or closes the opening 12, the arc surface of the main body 51 is opposite to the guide portion to avoid the guide portion. Specifically, for ease of use, the main body 51 itself can be an arc-shaped plate.

[0096] In the embodiment of the present invention, see Figures 10 to 14 The hinge 5 may further include a connecting piece 53, one end of the main body 51 is connected to the inner surface of the door body 4 through the connecting piece 53; when the door body 4 closes the opening 12, the width of the connecting piece 53 in the depth direction of the storage cavity 11 is greater than the width of the guide part in the depth direction of the storage cavity 11; the maximum height between the connecting piece 53 and the bottom surface of the box body 1 is less than the minimum height between the guide part and the bottom surface of the box body 1.

[0097] Specifically, when the door body 4 closes the opening 12, the width of the connecting piece 53 in the depth direction of the storage cavity 11 is greater than the width of the first guide groove 31 in the depth direction of the storage cavity 11; the maximum height between the connecting piece 53 and the bottom surface of the box body 1 is less than the minimum height between the first guide groove 31 and the bottom surface of the box body 1, so that the hinge 5 as a whole can smoothly avoid the guide part, thereby ensuring the normal opening and closing of the door body 4.

[0098] In the embodiment of the present invention, see Figure 1 、 Figures 10 to 14 The storage box also includes at least one support member 6, one end of the support member 6 is connected to the door body 4, and the other end is connected to the box body 1. The support member 6 has a supporting state and a releasing state; in the supporting state, the door body 4 is supported on the support member 6 to open the opening 12; in the releasing state, the door body 4 can fit the opening 12 to close the opening 12.

[0099] When the door needs to be opened, the support member 6 can be placed in a supporting state, so that the door body 4 is supported on the support member 6, which is convenient for people to take and place materials in the storage chamber 11; when the door needs to be closed, the support member 6 can be placed in a released state, so that the door body 4 can fit into the opening 12 to close the opening 12, which is convenient for operation.

[0100] The support member 6 can have various structural forms. For example, the support member 6 can be an electric telescopic rod, with its telescopic end rotatably connected to the door body 4 and its fixed end rotatably connected to the box body 1. When the telescopic rod is extended, it is in a supporting state to support the door body 4, and when the telescopic rod is shortened, it is in a released state to release the door body 4. Alternatively, the support member 6 can be a mechanical limit support rod, such as a top-opening telescopic sliding support rod. When the door body 4 is opened, the support rod is lifted up to support the door body 4. When the door body 4 needs to be closed, the door body 4 can be lifted up, so that the support rod is lifted up to unlock the supporting state, so that the door body 4 can close the opening 12.

[0101] Specifically, the number of the support members 6 can be two, and the two support members 6 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the door body 4. Moreover, the support members 6 can be connected to the cavity wall of the storage cavity 11, so that when the door body 4 is closed, the support members 6 can be located in the box body 1, which not only plays a role in protecting the support members 6, but also improves the appearance of the storage box.

[0102] In order to improve the sealing of the storage box, in the embodiment of the present invention, see Figure 1 , a first magnetic part 41 can be provided on the door body 4, and a second magnetic part can be provided on the opening portion 12. When the door body 4 closes the opening portion 12, the first magnetic part 41 and the second magnetic part cooperate with each other by magnetic attraction, thereby improving the tightness of the connection between the door body 4 and the opening portion 12, thereby improving the airtightness of the storage box, preventing foreign matter from entering the storage cavity 11 and contaminating the seasoning, and further improving food safety. Among them, the first magnetic part 41 and the second magnetic part can be magnetic parts with opposite polarities; or, one of the first magnetic part 41 and the second magnetic part can be a metal part that can be attracted to the magnetic part, and the other can be a magnetic part. Moreover, the magnetic part or the metal part can be an additional component provided on the door body 4 or the opening portion 12, or it can be a part of the door body 4 or the opening portion 12 itself.

[0103] In the embodiment of the present invention, see Figure 15 The material storage box further includes a control panel 7 and a material drive unit 8, which are electrically connected to the control panel 7. The control panel 7 and the material drive unit 8 are disposed within the material storage cavity 11.

[0104] Liquid seasoning and solid seasoning can be placed in the storage cavity 11. The material driving part can include a liquid material pump for driving the liquid seasoning to be discharged, and a motor for driving the solid seasoning to be discharged.

[0105] In the embodiment of the present invention, see Figure 4The storage box may further include a partition 113, which is arranged in the storage chamber 11 and divides the storage chamber 11 into a storage chamber body 111 and a working chamber 112; wherein, a container 9 for storing materials is provided in the storage chamber body 111, and the aforementioned control panel 7 and material driving unit 8 can be provided in the working chamber 112, which facilitates the planning and neatness of the structure inside the storage box.

[0106] An embodiment of the present invention further provides a cooking device comprising the aforementioned material storage box.

[0107] The cooking device provided in the embodiment of the present invention includes the aforementioned material storage box. Therefore, the cooking device has all the beneficial effects of the material storage box, which will not be described in detail here.

[0108] In an embodiment of the present invention, the cooking device also includes a base, and the storage box is arranged on the base; the box body 1 also includes a closing portion 14 opposite to the opening portion 12; wherein, the storage box is arranged at an angle relative to the base so that the height of the top surface of the box body 1 relative to the bottom surface of the box body 1 gradually decreases along the direction from the opening portion 12 to the closing portion 14.

[0109] In other words, the storage box can be installed on the base at an angle as a whole, so that the height of the top surface of the box body 1 relative to the bottom surface of the box body 1 gradually decreases along the direction from the opening 12 to the closed portion 14. When liquid such as oil drips onto the top surface of the box body 1, it can flow along the top surface of the box body toward the closed portion 14 under the action of its own gravity, and will not flow toward the opening 12. As a result, the liquid cannot flow into the storage cavity 11 through the opening 12, thereby preventing the liquid such as oil from contaminating the storage cavity 11.
