TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to a high and low temperature partitioned energy-saving hot pot structure and use method, belonging to the technical field of energy-saving hot pot. BACKGROUND
[0002] Hot pot refers to a cooking method that uses a pot as a cooking utensil and boils food in water or soup in the pot. After many technical improvements, the existing hot pot still has many shortcomings. Chinese patent No. 202420139640.X (hereinafter referred to as comparative document 1) and Chinese patent No. 201920308166.8 (hereinafter referred to as comparative document 2) involve the main improvement method, which has the following shortcomings: 1. Large heat loss, not energy-saving. Both comparative documents, especially comparative document 1, have the pot body in contact with the boiling water in the highest temperature zone, causing the largest temperature difference between the outer surface of the pot body and the outside air, and the fastest heat dissipation. 2. The oil saving effect is not obvious. Although comparative document 1 can prevent oil from being pushed to the edge by boiling, food materials are not concentrated in a small area for oil immersion, i.e., food materials cover the top water surface area, which requires the oil layer to also cover the top area, so a large amount of oil is still needed. 3. The food materials are heated in a free manner, and the raw and cooked foods are not separated, making it inconvenient to fish them out. Comparative document 2 and traditional hot pot technology both belong to the free cooking of food materials in deep water, with the food materials randomly stringing and the position being not fixed, requiring a strainer to fish them out. Although comparative document 1 raises the food materials to a certain height by a partition, it does not change the free cooking method, and the claim only protects the structure and function of the dispersed oil layer, without protecting the cooking of food materials in the shallow water area. 4. Although both documents have a partition structure, the function of the partition is obviously not designed to prevent the pot from being soiled, so the method of preventing the pot from being soiled by using a partition needs further research. 5. Comparative document 1 solves the problem of easy splashing of soup, but the double-pot structure is too complex, the cost is too high, and it is difficult to clean. SUMMARY
[0003] The purpose of the present application is to provide a high and low temperature partitioned energy-saving hot pot structure and use method, which sets a high and low temperature partition structure in the hot pot, reduces heat dissipation by contacting the outside air in the low temperature zone, and uses a small amount of water to quickly heat and shorten the heating waiting time, thereby achieving energy-saving of the hot pot and solving the above-mentioned technical problems of the existing technology.
[0004] The technical solution of the present application is: The application discloses a high-low temperature partition energy-saving chafing dish structure, which comprises a chafing dish body and a main body; the main body is composed of a horizontal partition plate and a vertical partition plate which are connected into one body, the bottom surface of the horizontal partition plate is connected with the upper edge of the vertical partition plate; the main body is placed in the chafing dish body to form the energy-saving chafing dish structure, the horizontal partition plate divides the space in the chafing dish body into upper and lower two parts, the upper part is a soaking area, and the lower part is further divided by the vertical partition plate; the vertical partition plate divides or encloses more than two spaces below the horizontal partition plate, at least one space corresponds to a heat source of the chafing dish body, and the space corresponding to the heat source is referred to as a high-temperature area, and the space without corresponding heat source is referred to as a low-temperature area.
[0005] The outer contour of the main body is matched with the inner contour of the chafing dish body, and the edge of the main body is attached to the inner surface of the chafing dish body after the main body is placed in the chafing dish body.
[0006] The vertical partition plate encloses a space below the center of the horizontal partition plate as a high-temperature area, and the periphery of the vertical partition plate is a low-temperature area, which wraps the high-temperature area.
[0007] The edge of the horizontal partition plate contacts the inner side of the chafing dish body to fix the main body in the horizontal direction, and the bottom edge of the vertical partition plate contacts the inner bottom surface of the chafing dish body to support the main body. The main body divides the water or soup (hereinafter collectively referred to as liquid) in the chafing dish body into the high-temperature area, the low-temperature area and the soaking area.
[0008] The horizontal partition plate is provided with a water outlet gap in hollow, and the water outlet gap is a plurality of through holes in arbitrary shape, which serves as a passage for the liquid in the high-temperature area to flow upward to the soaking area.
[0009] The horizontal partition plate edge and the chafing dish body exist a water outlet gap, which serves as a passage for the liquid after soaking to fall to the low-temperature area.
[0010] The edge of the horizontal partition plate is provided with a fixed point protruding in intervals, and the fixed point contacts the inner side of the chafing dish body to fix the main body in the horizontal direction.
[0011] The center of the horizontal partition plate is provided with a circular taking and placing hole matched with a finger, which is used for extending the finger to take and place the main body. The circular taking and placing hole is part of the water outlet gap, and the other part is a through hole in arbitrary shape.
[0012] The edge and surface of the horizontal partition plate can be pressed into concave-convex shapes, or additional protrusions are attached to strengthen the strength of the horizontal partition plate and prevent deformation under heat or external force.
[0013] The vertical partition plate is vertically arranged or is arranged with the upper end inwardly inclined, so that the liquid in the high-temperature area is as little as possible and the liquid in the low-temperature area is as much as possible.
[0014] The bottom edge of the vertical partition plate and the bottom surface of the chafing dish body are provided with a water inlet gap, which serves as a passage for the liquid in the low-temperature area to enter the high-temperature area.
[0015] The bottom edge of the vertical partition plate is provided with a supporting point protruding in intervals, and the supporting point is responsible for supporting the weight of the main body.
[0016] The pot body and the main body are made of food-grade material with low thermal conductivity, which reduces the heat conduction rate from the high-temperature area to the low-temperature area outside, and reduces the heat loss rate of the outer surface of the low-temperature area to the outside air, thereby achieving energy saving.
[0017] A method for using the high-low temperature partition energy-saving hot pot structure, the main body is placed in the pot body to form an energy-saving hot pot structure, and the food materials are started to be cooked. The liquid in the high-temperature area boils and flows upwards from the water outlet gap of the transverse partition plate to the cooking area. After being cooled by the food materials in the cooking area, the liquid falls into the low-temperature area from the water inlet gap. The liquid in the low-temperature area flows back to the high-temperature area through the water inlet gap at the bottom of the high-temperature area. The liquid in the pot body forms a circulating water flow according to the water flow in the high-temperature area, the water flow in the cooking area, the water flow in the low-temperature area and the water flow in the high-temperature area. When passing through the shallow water level cooking area, the water flow rapidly radiates from the center to the edge, pushing the food materials and oil layer to the edge for concentrated cooking.
[0018] The energy-saving principle of the present application: the surface of the lower temperature in the hot pot body has lower heat dissipation efficiency; the space in the pot body is divided into high and low temperature zones, the low temperature zone surrounds the high temperature zone, the boiling liquid flows upwards from the water outlet gap of the transverse partition plate to the cooking area, and after being cooled by the food materials in the cooking area, it falls into the low temperature zone from the water inlet gap. Since the temperature difference between the low temperature zone and the outside air is small, the heat loss is also small, which further saves energy. The traditional hot pot is directly in contact with the air, especially the comparison file 2 is the highest temperature liquid level lifting chamber which is placed in the outermost layer and in contact with the air, the heat loss is much larger than the present application.
[0019] Further, the heat loss is reduced during the waiting time for heating to boiling. The high-low temperature partitioning of the present application heats only the liquid in the high-temperature area, and the amount of liquid in the high-temperature area is small, so that the liquid in the high-temperature area can be quickly heated to boiling. The waiting time for heating to boiling is reduced, the heat dissipation time of the hot pot is also reduced, the heat loss is greatly reduced, and the energy-saving effect is remarkable. The comparison files 1, 2 and the traditional hot pot all heat the entire liquid, the waiting time for heating to boiling is long, the heat dissipation time is also long, and the heat loss is much larger than the present application.
[0020] The positive effects of the present application: the high-low temperature partition structure in the hot pot promotes water circulation, the low-temperature zone pot body contacts the outside air to reduce heat dissipation, and the method of quickly heating a small amount of water to shorten the waiting time realizes energy saving of the hot pot; the radiating water flow concentrates the food materials and oil layer in a small area to achieve oil saving, and disperses the boiling bubbles to avoid splashing; the shallow water area cooks the food materials clearly and fixedly, easy to take and place, separates raw and cooked, and does not paste the bottom of the pot; the present application does not change the structure of the existing hot pot, and the main body matched with the hot pot body can be put in.
