[0020] In order to make the purposes, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the present application clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be described clearly and completely below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments. The components of the embodiments of the present application described and shown in the drawings can be arranged and designed in various different configurations. Therefore, the following detailed description of the embodiments of the present application provided in the drawings is not intended to limit the scope of the claimed present application, but only represents selected embodiments of the present application. Based on the embodiments of the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative work fall within the scope of the present application.

[0021] It is considered that the user may want to cook multiple different food materials at one time in actual use. However, the current oil brushing method is to brush oil according to the same program for all food materials, thereby affecting the taste of food.

[0022] Based on this, the embodiments of the present application provide an oven tray and an oil brushing control method based on the oven tray, which are described below through embodiments.

[0023] The embodiments of the present application provide an oven tray, as shown in Figure 1 which comprises an oven tray body, oil storage units are symmetrically arranged at opposite sides of the oven tray body, and the oil storage units are respectively provided with an oil inlet and a plurality of oil outlets. An electromagnetic valve (not shown in the figure) is installed at each oil outlet, and the electromagnetic valve is used to control the opening and closing of the oil outlet. The surface of the oven tray body is divided into two or more cooking areas, and the electromagnetic valves in each cooking area work independently.

[0024] In a feasible implementation manner, as shown in Figure 1 the oil inlet is arranged at the top of the oil storage unit, which is convenient for oiling; the oil outlet is arranged on the side surface of the oil storage unit, and the oil outlets of the two oil storage units are arranged oppositely; the number of the oil outlets is multiple, and the multiple oil outlets are uniformly and intervally arranged. The number of the arranged oil outlets, the aperture of the oil outlet and the interval size and other parameters can be set according to the size of the oven tray. The larger the size of the oven tray is, the more the number of the oil outlets is, and the larger the aperture of the oil outlet is. Conversely, the smaller the size of the oven tray is, the smaller the number of the oil outlets is, and the smaller the aperture of the oil outlet is.

[0025] The electromagnetic valve and the processor of the steam and oven integrated machine are in communication connection, the processor divides the cooking areas, and separately controls the opening and closing of the electromagnetic valves in each cooking area, so as to realize the purpose of brushing oil according to different oil brushing times and oil brushing amounts for the food materials in each cooking area.

[0026] The process of how the processor divides the cooking areas will be described in the following embodiments, and will not be described here again.

[0027] In a feasible embodiment, the electromagnetic valve and the processor of the steam oven can adopt wireless communication mode or wired communication mode. If the wired communication mode is adopted, a pin row can be arranged at the bottom of the baking tray body, a terminal matched with the pin row can be arranged on the support in the steam oven for supporting the baking tray body, the electromagnetic valve is electrically connected between the pin row and the lead, and the terminal is connected between the processor and the line. When the baking tray is placed in the cavity of the steam oven, the pin row of the baking tray body is inserted into the terminal of the steam oven, so that the circuit is turned on, and then the signal transmission between the processor and the electromagnetic valve is realized.

[0028] The processor can control the oil brushing times by controlling the opening and closing times of the electromagnetic valve. When the electromagnetic valve is opened, oil is discharged from the oil outlet hole, so that the purpose of brushing the surface of the tray is achieved. The oil brushing amount can be adjusted by adjusting the opening time of the electromagnetic valve. The longer the opening time is, the more the oil brushing amount is.

[0029] It can be understood from the above embodiment that the oil storage unit is arranged on the baking tray body, the oil storage unit is provided with an oil outlet hole, and the electromagnetic valve is arranged at the oil outlet hole. When food is loaded on the baking tray, automatic oil brushing of the surface of the baking tray can be realized under the control of the processor, and a plurality of types of food materials can be cooked at the same time. Each type of food material is controlled to brush oil, and the fineness of automatic oil brushing is improved.

[0030] When the electromagnetic valve is opened and the oil in the oil storage unit is sufficient, the oil will overflow the oil outlet hole and slowly flow to the surface of the tray. However, as the oil in the oil storage unit becomes less and less, for example, the height of the oil gradually decreases to below the height of the oil outlet hole, at this time, the oil will not overflow the oil outlet hole, so that the oil in the oil storage unit cannot be completely used for oil brushing.

[0031] Therefore, on the basis of the above embodiment, the bottom plate of the baking tray body is inclined from the two sides to the middle position where the oil storage unit is installed, and the bottom plate of the oil storage unit is arranged to be inclined with the bottom plate of the baking tray body. Figure 2 A side view of the baking tray is shown, in which the bottom plate is seen to be inclined from the two sides to the middle.

[0032] In the embodiment of the present application, the inclination angle of the baking tray body is reasonably set to prevent the inclination angle from being too large, which causes the food materials to slide on the surface of the tray and affects the placement of the food materials.

[0033] By arranging the bottom plate of the baking tray body at a certain inclination angle and arranging the bottom of the oil storage unit to be inclined, the oil can slowly flow to the oil outlet hole under the action of gravity and then flow out of the oil outlet hole, so that the oil in the oil storage unit can be smoothly discharged from the oil outlet hole.

[0034] In another possible embodiment, the bottom of the baking tray body can also be provided with a flexible structure, that is, it can be deformed, when food is placed on the baking tray, the tray surface will gradually move downward with the increase of the weight of the food, thereby generating a certain inclination angle, since the bottom of the oil storage unit will move along with the bottom of the baking tray body, the bottom of the oil storage unit will also generate a certain inclination angle, and the oil in the oil storage unit will flow to the oil outlet hole under the action of gravity, thereby flowing out of the oil outlet hole and flowing to the tray surface, thereby realizing oil brushing on the bottom of the food and preventing the food from sticking to the pot.

[0035] In one possible embodiment, the oil storage unit and the baking tray body are integrally formed.

[0036] In the embodiment of the present application, the bottom of the oil storage unit is the bottom of the baking tray body, the rear side of the oil storage unit is the side plate of the baking tray body, the front side of the oil storage unit is provided with an oil outlet hole, if the length of the oil storage unit is the same as the length of the baking tray body, then the left and right sides of the oil storage unit are the two side plates of the baking tray body, if the length of the oil storage unit is less than the length of the baking tray body, then two side plates can be separately provided. And in production, the oil storage unit and the baking tray body are integrally formed by injection molding process.

[0037] By the way of integral forming, the processing cost is lower and the structure is simpler, but it is not convenient to clean the inside of the oil storage unit.

[0038] Therefore, in another embodiment, the oil storage unit and the baking tray body are detachably installed, the bottom of the oil storage unit is provided with buckles, and the bottom plate of the baking tray body is provided with clamping grooves matched with the buckles. Figure 3 A schematic view of the detachable structure of the oil storage unit and the baking tray body is shown.

[0039] In the embodiment of the present application, the oil storage unit is a separate oil storage box, when the oil storage box is installed on the baking tray, the clamping grooves and the buckles can be clamped with each other to fix the oil storage box on the baking tray. Similarly, the user only needs to pull the buckle to conveniently take down the oil storage box from the baking tray.

[0040] The oil storage unit and the baking tray body are installed in a detachable manner, which is convenient for detaching at any time to clean the oil storage unit. And the bottom plate of the oil storage unit and the bottom plate of the baking tray body are connected together, when the bottom of the baking tray body is inclined, the bottom of the oil storage unit can also incline along with the bottom of the baking tray body.

[0041] In addition, it should be noted that in this detachable manner, the electrical devices in the oil storage unit, such as the electromagnetic valve, can communicate with the processor of the steaming and baking all-in-one machine through wireless communication, or can communicate through wired manner. If through wired manner, such as Figure 3As shown, a needle (not shown in the figure) is arranged at the bottom of the oil storage unit, and a terminal is arranged at the bottom of the baking tray body. The needle of the oil storage unit and the terminal of the baking tray body are connected through plug-in to realize circuit conduction. The baking tray body is further connected to the terminal of the steaming and baking integrated machine through plug-in, thereby realizing the circuit connection between the electromagnetic valve and the processor.

[0042] If the oil only flows to the tray surface slowly, the oil can only flow to the tray surface along the direction of the oil outlet hole, and can only brush the oil on the baking tray in the coverage area of the oil outlet hole, which is relatively limited.

[0043] Therefore, on the basis of the above embodiment, a nozzle is arranged at the oil outlet hole, and a pressurizing component is arranged in the oil storage unit to spray the oil in the oil storage unit through the pressurizing component to form a spray.

[0044] In the embodiment of the application, the pressurizing component is, for example, a micro booster pump, a compressor, etc.

[0045] The pressurizing component is in communication connection with the processor of the steaming and baking integrated machine. When the electromagnetic valve is opened, the processor sends a driving signal to the pressurizing component, and the pressurizing component starts to work to generate pressure on the oil to drive the oil to be sprayed to form a spray, so that the oil spraying range of the oil outlet hole is larger.

[0046] On the basis of the above embodiment, a collecting area is further arranged at the middle position of the bottom plate of the baking tray body. The collecting area is at least one of the following forms: a collecting groove, a collecting angle and a collecting hole, and an oil cup is arranged at the bottom of the collecting hole.

[0047] Specifically, as shown in Figure 1 and Figure 2 , the collecting groove is a groove arranged at the center of the bottom plate of the baking tray body to store excess cooking oil. The width of the collecting groove is set according to the size of the baking tray. The larger the size of the baking tray, the greater the width of the collecting groove.

[0048] As shown in Figure 4 and Figure 5 , the collecting hole cancels the structure of the collecting groove and opens a plurality of oil holes in the area of the original collecting groove. A detachable oil cup is arranged below the plurality of oil holes. Compared with the oil groove structure, the oil cup structure can collect more oil. At the same time, since the oil cup is a detachable structure, the user can clean it more conveniently. However, the oil cup structure also increases the cost, and since the oil cup has a large volume, it also affects the placement of the baking tray. Compared with the oil groove structure, each has its own advantages, and the appropriate collecting form can be selected according to the actual needs.

[0049] If the user needs the oil to stay on the food more, the collecting angle form can be used. As shown in Figure 6 , Figure 7As shown, the grill pan has no oil trough or oil cup in the center. Instead, the sides of the grill pan tilt toward the center, forming an angle. The cooking oil that flows out of the grill pan is directly stored in the bottom angle. The advantage of this structure is that, compared to an oil sump, the angle is shallower. Even if the oil is concentrated in the angle, the ingredients still have access to this area, ensuring they are always well-oiled for cooking. This structure is suitable for cooking foods that require a lot of cooking oil, such as frying.

[0050] These three different oil collection methods have their own applicable usage scenarios and functions. Users can use different baking tray structures according to their actual cooking needs when preparing different recipes to achieve better cooking results.

[0051] Based on the same inventive concept, a method for controlling the oiling of the above-mentioned baking tray is provided, and the execution subject of the method is the processor of the steam-bake combination machine. Figure 8 As shown, the method includes the following steps: Step S801: Obtaining the ingredient information of the ingredients to be cooked.

[0052] The food information at least includes the type of food.

[0053] Step S802: Dividing the baking tray into cooking zones corresponding to each ingredient based on the type of the ingredient to be cooked.

[0054] like Figure 1 As shown, when there are two types of food, the oil tank can be divided into two areas, namely area 1 and area 2. When there are four types of food, the oil tank can be divided into two areas, namely area 1 and area 2. Figure 9 It is divided into four areas: Area 1, Area 2, Area 3 and Area 4.

[0055] After dividing the cooking zones, the method further includes: Get the volume of ingredients for each cooking zone.

[0056] The size of each cooking area is determined according to the volume of the food that it requires.

[0057] In a feasible implementation, determining the area size of each cooking zone according to the volume of food corresponding to each cooking zone includes: Determine the ratio between all cooking zones based on the volume of the food corresponding to each cooking zone; The size of each cooking zone is determined based on the ratio of all cooking zones to each other and the total area of ​​the grill plate.

[0058] In one specific example, the cooking plate surface area can be divided according to the proportion between the weights of different kinds of food materials, or the proportion between the volumes, or the proportion between the weights and volumes. For example, the volume ratio of food material A, food material B, food material C and food material D is 1:2:3:4. Then, according to this ratio, the cooking plate area is first divided into two parts according to the oil collecting groove, and then divided into two areas on one side of the oil collecting groove according to the ratio of food material A and food material D. Then, the other side of the oil collecting groove is divided into two areas according to the ratio of food material B and food material C.

[0059] Step S803: determining the oil brushing strategy of each cooking area corresponding to the food material based on the divided cooking area.

[0060] The oil brushing strategy includes the number of oil brushing and the amount of oil brushing.

[0061] In this step, the oil outlet hole and the electromagnetic valve at the oil outlet hole corresponding to each cooking area can be determined based on the divided cooking area.

[0062] In the embodiment of the present application, each oil outlet hole and the electromagnetic valve at the oil outlet hole is provided with a number. Each divided cooking area is also provided with a number.

[0063] The size information of the cooking plate surface is pre-stored in the processor. The position of the boundary between the cooking areas can be determined according to the divided cooking area. The numbers of the oil outlet holes on both sides of the boundary are determined according to the position information of the boundary. The number of each cooking area is associated with the number of the corresponding oil outlet hole and the electromagnetic valve.

[0064] By controlling the electromagnetic valve in each cooking area to work individually, the number of oil brushing and the amount of oil brushing of different kinds of food materials can be controlled individually.

[0065] In one possible implementation, the number of oil brushing and the amount of oil brushing of different kinds of food materials can be set based on the corresponding recipe program of each kind of food material. Specifically, based on the foregoing example, after each cooking area is associated with the oil outlet hole and the electromagnetic valve in the respective area, the recipe program corresponding to the kind of food material in each cooking area can be determined according to the kind of food material in each cooking area. The recipe program includes the cooking time, and the cooking time, the number of oil brushing and the amount of oil brushing have a corresponding relationship. The longer the cooking time, the more the number of oil brushing and the more the amount of oil brushing.

[0066] The recipe program can be selected by the user on the screen of the steam and oven integrated machine. The recipe program corresponding to each kind of food material is different, so the number of oil brushing and the amount of oil brushing corresponding to each kind of food material are also different.

[0067] The present application can realize the control of different kinds of food materials with different oil brushing times and oil brushing amounts by dividing the cooking area, determining the electromagnetic valve in the corresponding area according to the cooking area, and then controlling the working of the electromagnetic valve in each cooking area.

[0068] There are two ways to obtain the food material information in step S801, which will be described below.

[0069] Method one: when the food material is not placed on the baking tray, the food material information of the food material to be cooked includes: The food material information is extracted from the front-end display interface of the steam-baking integrated machine, and the food material information is manually input.

[0070] In this way, the method further includes: The divided cooking area is generated into a graph, and the graph is displayed on the front-end display interface.

[0071] In one example, the front-end display interface can be the screen of the steam-baking integrated machine, or the interface of the user's mobile phone APP.

[0072] In the presented graph, the type of food material to be placed in each area can be marked.

[0073] By visualizing the divided cooking area in the form of a graph, it is convenient for the user to view the divided area and place food materials according to the area.

[0074] Method two: the food material has been placed on the baking tray, and the image acquisition device built-in the steam-baking integrated machine is used to obtain the information.

[0075] Based on the above embodiment, the food material information of the food material to be cooked includes: Step S801A: based on the image acquisition device installed in the steam-baking integrated machine, the image information of the food material on the baking tray is acquired.

[0076] Step S801B: analyzing the image information to obtain the food material information.

[0077] The acquired image information can be input into a pre-trained neural network model to identify the information of the food material, and the image acquisition device can identify the position information and type information of the food material.

[0078] The neural network model can use a convolutional neural network model CNN, which is a mature model and will not be described here.

[0079] In this way, the cooking area can be divided by different types of food materials as the dividing line by identifying the type of food material.

[0080] In the second way, the food material information further includes position information of the food material, and the method further includes: determining interval distances of different kinds of food materials based on the position information of the food materials; judging whether the interval distances are greater than a preset distance threshold; if the interval distances are less than the preset distance threshold, issuing a prompt information to prompt a user to adjust the position of the food material on the baking tray.

[0081] If the interval distances are less than the preset distance threshold, it indicates that the food materials are too close to each other, which is not conducive to the division of the cooking zones. Therefore, the prompt information is issued to prompt the user to adjust the position of the food material on the baking tray to facilitate the division of the cooking zones.

[0082] If the interval distances are greater than the preset distance threshold, the division can be directly performed.

[0083] When the oil brushing function of the baking tray is actually used, there is another problem that needs attention. When the user is actually preparing the food material, there can be a case that the food material has more water or the baking tray has more residual water. When the steam-baking integrated machine is working, if the temperature in the cavity is high and the food material or the baking tray has more residual water, when the baking tray is brushed with oil, the oil can splash due to the contact between the oil and the water, which is commonly known as "frying pot".

[0084] In order to avoid the "frying pot" situation of the cooking oil under high temperature, a heating fan can be provided in the steam-baking integrated machine. The main function of the heating fan is to make the hot air in the integrated machine circulate and flow, so that the food material in the baking tray is evenly heated. At the same time, the heating fan can also dry the food material and remove the excess water in the food material.

[0085] Therefore, before the oil brushing, the automatic oil brushing control method further includes: Step A: acquiring image information of the baking tray by using an image acquisition device; Step B: judging whether there is excess water on the baking tray based on the image information; Step C: if there is excess water, sending an instruction to the heating fan to start the operation of the heating fan until the image acquisition information shows that there is no excess water on the baking tray, and sending a shutdown instruction to the heating fan.

[0086] When the image acquisition device is provided and the excess water on the baking tray has been dried, the number of oil brushing and the amount of oil brushing for different food materials can also be set based on the ripeness of the food. Specifically, the following steps are included: Step D: acquiring images of different food materials in each cooking zone by using the image acquisition device.

[0087] Step E: determining the ripeness of different food materials based on the images.

[0088] Wherein, the target has more existing technologies to judge the maturity of food materials based on images, such as using a pre-trained neural network model, which will not be repeated here.

[0089] Step F: Determine whether the maturity of various food materials is greater than or equal to the preset maturity threshold.

[0090] If it is greater than or equal to, the baking tray starts to perform the oil brushing program. The specific parameters such as the oiling position and oil volume V can be adjusted according to the position of the food material and the recipe program. If it is less than the preset maturity threshold, return to step D.

[0091] Wherein, if the recipe cooking time is long, multiple maturity thresholds can be set for multiple oiling.

[0092] Based on the same inventive concept, an oven-steamer is provided, which includes an oven-steamer body and the baking tray in the above embodiments. The oven-steamer body is provided with a cavity for accommodating the baking tray, and a processor for controlling the opening and closing of the electromagnetic valves of different cooking areas on the baking tray to achieve automatic oil brushing.

[0093] In a possible embodiment, the oven-steamer further includes a heating fan for blowing off excess water on the baking tray to prevent the frying pot.

[0094] In a possible embodiment, the oven-steamer is further provided with an image acquisition device for acquiring image information of the food materials on the baking tray.

[0095] In addition, by combining the steam baking mode of the oven-steamer with the automatic oil brushing function of the baking tray, water frying (or raw frying) of steamed buns can also be achieved.

[0096] The steam baking of the oven-steamer is a prior art. The principle is that when the oven-steamer is performing a baking program, the steam generator in the cavity can extract water from the water tank and spray it into the pot in the form of steam. As long as the spray angle of the steam generator is adjusted, or the steam generator is replaced by a pipe valve, water can be added to the baking tray.

[0097] The water frying and raw frying of steamed buns that we often see in life are crispy and juicy, and the taste is delicious. However, the actual production process is relatively troublesome. To make beautiful and delicious water fried buns, it is often necessary to add water and oil to the bottom of the pot several times during cooking, and the control requirements for the fire are also high. It is difficult for general users to handle the two complex cooking methods of water frying and raw frying. Through the automatic oiling function of the baking tray and the steam baking function of the oven-steamer, the functions of oiling and water adding can be easily achieved.

[0098] When water frying is performed, if the oil collecting groove or the oil collecting hole is arranged on the baking tray, the user needs to place the matched cover plate on the oil collecting groove or the oil collecting hole to avoid the water and oil on the baking tray from flowing out.

[0099] Then the user uniformly places the prepared pastries on the baking tray (if the user needs to make the pastries look good, the user can also add an appropriate amount of flour water in the baking tray in advance).

[0100] The baking tray periodically supplements water and oil in the baking tray according to the setting of the recipe program, so that the water and oil in the baking tray are kept sufficient, and the cooking effect is optimal.

[0101] In the case that the water and oil in the baking tray are kept sufficient, water frying and raw frying cooking can be realized, and the cooking experience of the user is enriched.

[0102] The steam and oven integrated machine can also automatically recognize the remaining amount of water and oil in the baking tray through the image acquisition device, and supplement the water and oil in time in the case of water and oil shortage. Compared with manual cooking, the use of the scheme can better control the temperature in the baking tray, and can keep the water and oil in the baking tray sufficient at all times, and the cooking effect is better.
