Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of electric pancake maker technology, and more specifically to an electric pancake maker device. Background Technology

[0002] Electric pancake makers are divided into industrial, commercial and household types. Household electric pancake makers are used to heat pre-made dough to make pancakes. Existing electric pancake makers use upper and lower heating plates to hold and heat the dough. However, when making pancakes at home, oil is often brushed on the surface to make them more delicious. This results in a lot of oil and bits of crispy pancake dough sticking to the heating plates after the pancakes are cooked. As a result, the electric pancake maker needs to be cleaned before cooking the next pancake, which is quite inconvenient.

[0003] Therefore, the present invention proposes an electric pancake maker to improve this problem. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide an electric pancake maker in order to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention specifically adopts the following technical solution: An electric pancake maker includes a pancake maker housing on which an upper heating plate and a lower heating plate are mounted, and further includes: A water tank is installed on the outer shell of the pancake maker. The lower heating plate has an air vent for steam to pass through and a drain for condensate to pass through. The upper and lower heating plates are installed at an angle on the outer shell of the pancake maker. The height of the air vent is higher than the height of the drain. The outer shell of the pancake maker is equipped with a sealing device for sealing or unsealing the air vent. The sludge tank is installed on the outer shell of the pancake maker, located below the drain opening, and is used to collect condensate.

[0006] Furthermore, the outer shell of the pancake maker is provided with a receiving cavity for accommodating the sludge tank, a vertical rod is installed on the sludge tank, and a vertical hole is provided in the receiving cavity for accommodating the vertical rod.

[0007] Furthermore, a connecting rod is movably installed inside the vertical hole, and the connecting rod is hinged to the free end of the vertical rod. The depth of the vertical hole is greater than the length of the connecting rod.

[0008] Furthermore, the outer shell of the pancake maker is provided with an installation groove, in which an installation frame is slidably installed. A water tank is installed on the installation frame, and a take-up roller is rotatably installed on the installation frame facing the opening of the installation groove. The take-up roller is used to carry the silicone paper roll. A cutter is installed on the upper heating plate, and a blade holder is installed on the lower heating plate.

[0009] Furthermore, a sliding groove is provided on the mounting frame, a connecting spring is installed on the inner wall of the mounting groove, and an insert is installed on the free end of the connecting spring. A first insertion hole and a second insertion hole are provided in the sliding groove. When the insert is inserted into the first insertion hole, the winding roller is located outside the mounting groove and the water tank is located inside the mounting groove. When the insert is inserted into the second insertion hole, both the winding roller and the water tank are located inside the mounting groove.

[0010] Furthermore, an anti-reacting spring is installed inside the mounting frame, and a first semi-ring block is installed on the free end of the anti-reacting spring. A second semi-ring block is slidably installed on the first semi-ring block. The inner cavities of the first and second semi-ring blocks are used to accommodate the take-up roller. A limiting block is installed on the second semi-ring block, and a limiting plate is slidably installed on the first semi-ring block. The limiting plate has a limiting hole for accommodating the limiting block. When the limiting block is inserted into the limiting hole, the tendency of the second semi-ring block to move away from the first semi-ring block is limited.

[0011] Furthermore, the sealing component includes a return spring installed inside the pancake maker's housing, an extension plate installed on the free end of the return spring, a sealing rod for insertion into the vent hole installed on the extension plate, a through slot opened on the pancake maker's housing, a button passing through the through slot installed on the extension plate, an arc-shaped spring plate installed on the part of the button located inside the pancake maker's housing, and an arc-shaped groove for accommodating the arc-shaped spring plate opened inside the pancake maker's housing.

[0012] Furthermore, a baffle plate is installed on the part of the button located inside the outer casing of the pancake maker, and an arc-shaped spring plate is installed on the baffle plate. The projection of the baffle plate on the inner wall of the outer casing of the pancake maker will block the through slot.

[0013] Furthermore, a guide rod is installed on the first semi-ring block, an anti-spring is sleeved on the outside of the guide rod, and a guide hole for accommodating the guide rod is provided on the mounting frame.

[0014] Furthermore, an installation block is installed on the upper heating plate, an inner groove is opened on the installation block, a push spring is installed in the inner groove, an extension plate is installed on the free end of the push spring, an insertion rod is installed on the extension plate, a rubber sleeve is fitted on the outside of the insertion rod, and an inner hole for accommodating the insertion rod is opened on the cutter.

[0015] The beneficial effects of this invention are as follows: In use, this invention clamps the dough between the upper and lower heating plates to bake the pancake. During the process, the vent is sealed by a sealing component. After the pancake is baked, the sealing component is removed from the vent, and the device continues to heat, causing the water in the tank to evaporate. The steam enters between the upper and lower heating plates. When the power is turned off, the steam condenses to form condensate. Guided by the tilt of the lower heating plate, the condensate carries oil and pancake residue towards the drain and is collected in the sludge tank, reducing the need for manual cleaning and increasing the practicality of the device.

[0018] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0019] like Figure 1 - Figure 11 As shown, in some embodiments of the present invention, an electric pancake maker device is provided. The device includes a pancake maker housing 1, on which an upper heating plate 101 and a lower heating plate 102 are mounted. Both the upper heating plate 101 and the lower heating plate 102 include a shell. An iron plate is installed at the outlet of the shell. A heating wire or other heating component is installed inside the shell. The heating wire contacts the iron plate to heat it. The shell of the upper heating plate 101 is hinged to the shell of the lower heating plate 102, allowing the entire pancake maker housing 1 to form the shape of an electric pancake maker. Rotating the upper heating plate 101 opens and closes the connection between the upper heating plate 101 and the lower heating plate 102. When the device is in use, after placing the pancake on the lower heating plate 102, rotating the upper heating plate 101 until it presses down on the pancake and simultaneously cooks it. The device also includes: Water tank 2 is installed on the outer shell 1 of the pancake maker. The lower heating plate 102 has an air vent 201 for steam passage and a drain 202 for condensate passage. The upper heating plate 101 and lower heating plate 102 are installed at an angle on the outer shell 1 of the pancake maker. The angle of inclination in the instruction manual is only for demonstration purposes, highlighting the technical effect of the inclination. In actual use, the angle of inclination should not be too large. Furthermore, when the device is making pancakes, the pancake itself has a large area, resulting in a large contact area with the lower heating plate 102 and increased friction between them. This reduces the possibility of the pancake being difficult to place on the lower heating plate 102 due to inclination. The height of the air vent 201 is higher than the height of the drain 202. The outer shell 1 of the pancake maker is equipped with a sealing element 3 for sealing or unsealing the air vent 201. When the device is making pancakes, the sealing element 3 blocks the air vent 201. At this time, the device heats the pancake, and the lower heating plate 102... The heating wire on the upper part also heats the water in the water tank 2. Since the temperature of the pancake is above 140℃, the water in the water tank 2 can be evaporated. After the pancake is cooked, the pancake is taken out and the upper heating plate 101 and the lower heating plate 102 are closed. At this time, the sealing part 3 is removed from the air outlet 201 and the heating is carried out again, so that water vapor can enter between the upper heating plate 101 and the lower heating plate 102. Then the heating is stopped and the temperature between the two gradually decreases, so that the water vapor can form condensate. Since the lower heating plate 102 and the upper heating plate 101 are installed at an angle, and the oil and water are immiscible and the density of oil is less than that of water, the oil will float on the condensate. The condensate will carry the oil across the surface of the two and slide to the lower side, and carry the oil and pancake residue on the two to move to the lower place. The drain 202 is opened at the lowest point of the slope, so the condensate will carry the oil and pancake residue out of the drain 202. Since the optimal temperature for making pancakes is around 140℃, reheating after removing the pancakes is a safety precaution. If the pancakes are removed quickly and the internal temperature has not completely dropped below 100℃, reheating is not necessary. However, if the upper heating plate 101 and the lower heating plate 102 are left open for too long, reheating is required. This can be achieved by installing a temperature sensor in the device to provide temperature feedback, thereby determining whether reheating is necessary. The temperature sensor is used to check the temperature so that the heating temperature can reach 100℃ or above, causing the water in the water tank 2 to boil. The sludge trough 4 is installed on the outer shell 1 of the pancake maker. The sludge trough 4 is located below the drain 202. The sludge trough 4 is used to collect condensate. When pancake crumbs and grease are discharged from the drain 202 along with the condensate, they will fall into the sludge trough 4. The sludge trough 4 collects the cleaned condensate, reducing the possibility of dirt flowing to the kitchen table or other places, and increasing the practicality of the device. Compared with existing technologies, in use, the upper heating plate 101 and the lower heating plate 102 are brought close together to hold the dough and bake the pancake. During the process, the vent 201 is blocked by the sealing component 3. After the pancake is baked, the sealing component 3 is released from the vent 201. At this time, the device continues to heat the water tank 2 to evaporate the water vapor. The water vapor enters between the upper heating plate 101 and the lower heating plate 102. When the power is turned off, the water vapor condenses to form condensate. Guided by the inclined lower heating plate 102, the condensate can carry the oil and pancake residue to the drain 202 and be collected by the sludge tank 4. This reduces the manual cleaning steps and increases the practicality of the device.

[0020] like Figure 8 As shown, a portion of the structure of the pancake maker housing 1 is disclosed. In some embodiments, the pancake maker housing 1 has a receiving cavity 5 for accommodating a sludge trough 4. A vertical rod 6 is installed on the sludge trough 4. A vertical hole 7 for accommodating the vertical rod 6 is provided in the receiving cavity 5. An opening is provided in the receiving cavity 5 so that the receiving cavity 5 communicates with the outside. The vertical rod 6 can rotate within the vertical hole 7. After the device is cleaned by condensate water, the wastewater falls into the sludge trough 4. At this time, the sludge trough 4 is rotated so that it can rotate out of the receiving cavity 5 and be exposed to the outside. Therefore, the wastewater can be moved to the exposed position, which is convenient for wastewater treatment. The device can be cleaned uniformly after the entire pancake making process is completed, which increases the practicality of the device.

[0021] like Figure 8 As shown, a portion of the structure on the vertical rod 6 is disclosed. In some embodiments, a connecting rod 8 is movably installed within the vertical hole 7. The connecting rod 8 is hinged to the free end of the vertical rod 6. The depth of the vertical hole 7 is greater than the length of the connecting rod 8, such that when the sludge tank 4 is located within the receiving cavity 5, the hinge point between the connecting rod 8 and the vertical rod 6 is located within the vertical hole 7. The connecting rod 8 can rotate around its own axis within the vertical hole 7 and can also slide along the length direction of the vertical hole 7. The receiving cavity 5 has a flared opening on the side near the vertical hole 7, and the height of the flared opening is greater than the thickness of the sludge tank 4. When sludge is poured into the sludge tank, the flared opening can be opened to allow the sludge tank to ... After the tank 4 is rotated to the outside of the receiving cavity 5, the connecting rod 8 and the vertical rod 6 slide upward, exposing the hinge point between them. The free end of the tank 4 tilts due to gravity, and the outer wall of the tank 4 abuts against the edge of the receiving cavity 5, thereby restricting the sliding of the connecting rod 8 in the vertical hole 7. Through the hinge between the vertical rod 6 and the connecting rod 8, the tank 4 can tilt when it is rotated to the outside of the receiving cavity 5, forcing the sewage to flow to the free end of the tank 4, which further facilitates the cleaning of the sewage in the tank 4.

[0022] like Figure 2 , Figure 7 and Figure 9As shown, a partial structure of the outer shell 1 of the pancake maker is disclosed. In some embodiments, the outer shell 1 of the pancake maker is provided with an installation groove 11, and an installation frame 9 is slidably installed in the installation groove 11. A water tank 2 is installed on the installation frame 9. A take-up roller 10 is rotatably installed on the installation frame 9 in the direction of the groove opening of the installation groove 11. The take-up roller 10 is used to carry the silicone paper roll. The silicone paper roll is composed of silicone paper wound onto the core. The silicone paper is existing baking paper. A cutter 12 is installed on the shell of the upper heating plate 101, and a knife holder 13 is installed on the shell of the lower heating plate 102. For ease of description, the installation frame 9 is divided into two parts, with the part where the take-up roller 10 is installed as the front end and the part where the water tank 2 is installed as the rear end. When the device is in use, after rotating the upper heating plate 101 to separate it from the lower heating plate 102, the mounting frame 9 is pulled out, exposing its front end and the winding roller 10 to the outside. The silicone paper is then pulled and laid on the lower heating plate 102, and the cake is placed on the silicone paper. At this time, the knife holder 13 is located between the free end of the silicone paper and the silicone paper roll, that is, part of the silicone paper is located on the knife holder 13. When the upper heating plate 101 is rotated to merge with the lower heating plate 102, the cutter 12 approaches the knife holder 13 and cuts the silicone paper located on the knife holder 13, so that the silicone paper laid on the lower heating plate 102 can be separated from the silicone paper roll. The silicone paper shields the lower heating plate 102, further reducing the steps and time required for cleaning. After the cake is taken out, the silicone paper can be taken out and discarded together. When the device has been used for a long time, the mounting frame 9 can be pulled out to expose the rear end and the water tank 2, making it easier to add water to it. The cutter 12 is not a cutting tool; its free end is merely a pointed tip. Since the silicone paper is brittle, it can be cut by the weight of the upper heating plate 101 combined with the pressure of the tip of the cutter 12, rather than being slashed. Therefore, the cutter 12 does not rely on sharpness to cut the silicone paper, which increases the safety of the device.

[0023] like Figure 6 and Figure 10 As shown, a portion of the structure of the mounting frame 9 is disclosed. In some embodiments, the mounting frame 9 has a sliding groove 14, a connecting spring 15 is installed on the inner wall of the mounting groove 11, and a plug 16 is installed on the free end of the connecting spring 15. The sliding groove 14 has a first insertion hole 17 and a second insertion hole 18. When the plug 16 is inserted into the first insertion hole 17, the winding roller 10 is located outside the mounting groove 11 and the water tank 2 is located inside the mounting groove 11. When the plug 16 is inserted into the second insertion hole 18, both the winding roller 10 and the water tank 2 are located inside the mounting groove 11. The connecting spring 15 forces the plug 16 to abut against the side wall of the mounting frame 9. The second insertion hole 18 is located near the opening of the mounting groove 11 in the sliding groove 14, and the first insertion hole 17 is located in the groove body of the sliding groove 14. An arc-shaped surface is provided on the free end of the plug 16. When the mounting frame 9 is located in the mounting groove 11, the insert 16 is inserted into the second insertion hole 18. At this time, the insert 16 blocks the inner wall of the second insertion hole 18, which initially restricts the sliding of the mounting frame 9 and reduces the possibility of accidental sliding of the mounting frame 9 during use. When it is necessary to lay silicone paper, the mounting frame 9 is pulled, and the insert 16 is forced to move out of the second insertion hole 18 by the guide of the arc-shaped surface at the end of the insert 16. At this time, the connecting spring 15 is in a compressed state. When the mounting frame 9 slides to the point where the insert 16 is aligned with the first insertion hole 17, the connecting spring 15 pushes the insert 16 into the first insertion hole 17. At this time, the take-up roller 10 is completely exposed to the outside and can lay the silicone paper. When the mounting frame 9 is pulled outward, forcing the insert 16 to separate from the first insertion hole 17, until the insert 16 slides to the end of the inner wall of the sliding groove 14 away from the opening of the mounting groove 11, the water tank 2 is completely exposed to the outside, making it easy to add water. The sliding of the mounting frame 9 is set to a two-stage sliding. The first stage of sliding only exposes the winding roller 10, and the second stage of sliding exposes the water tank 2. This prevents the water tank 2 from being exposed too much when the device only needs to lay silicone paper. This reduces the possibility of the water tank 2 being contaminated due to frequent entry and exit of the mounting slot 11, and increases the practicality of the device.

[0024] like Figure 10 and Figure 11 As shown, a portion of the structure within the mounting frame 9 is disclosed. In some embodiments, a resisting spring 901 is installed within the mounting frame 9. A first semi-ring block 902 is mounted on the free end of the resisting spring 901. A second semi-ring block 903 is slidably mounted on the first semi-ring block 902. The inner cavities of the first semi-ring block 902 and the second semi-ring block 903 are used to accommodate the take-up roller 10. A limiting block 904 is mounted on the second semi-ring block 903. A limiting plate 905 is slidably mounted on the first semi-ring block 902. The limiting plate 905 has a limiting hole 906 for accommodating the limiting block 904. When the limiting block 904 is inserted into the limiting hole 906, the tendency of the second semi-ring block 903 to move away from the first semi-ring block 902 is limited. The resisting spring 901 forces the first semi-ring block 902 to move toward the opening of the mounting frame 9. Figure 1 From the main perspective, the limiting plate 905 slides vertically on the first semi-ring block 902. The length of the limiting block 904 is less than the sliding stroke of the limiting plate 905 on the first semi-ring block 902. As a result, when the limiting plate 905 slides to its maximum limit, the length of the limiting block 904 is not long enough to continue to be inserted into the limiting hole 906, which causes the second semi-ring block 903 to be able to separate from the first semi-ring block 902. When the take-up roller 10 is located between the first semi-ring block 902 and the second semi-ring block 903, after the mounting frame 9 moves out of the mounting groove 11, it can be pushed by the abutment spring 901 to move the take-up roller 10 to the outside of the mounting frame 9 and keep it flush with the upper surface of the lower heating plate 102, which is convenient for laying silicone paper. When the silicone paper on the take-up roller 10 is used up, slide the limiting plate 905 until the limiting hole 906 separates from the limiting block 904. At this time, the sliding of the second half-ring block 903 on the first half-ring block 902 is restored. Then slide the second half-ring block 903 to move it away from the first half-ring block 902. The containment of the take-up roller 10 between the two is released, and the take-up roller 10 can be taken out to replace the silicone paper roll. After the replacement is completed, the take-up roller 10 is reinstalled between the first half-ring block 902 and the second half-ring block 903. Slide the second half-ring block 903. After the two contain the take-up roller 10, slide the limiting plate 905 to drive the limiting hole 906 to connect with the limiting block 904. The second half-ring block 903 and the first half-ring block 902 are then connected. By disassembling the take-up roller 10, the silicone paper roll can be replaced in a timely manner, which increases the practicality of the device.

[0025] like Figure 2 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, a partial structure of the sealing component 3 is disclosed. In some embodiments, the sealing component 3 includes a return spring 301 installed inside the pancake maker housing 1. An extension plate 303 is installed on the free end of the return spring 301. A sealing rod 302 for inserting into the vent 201 is installed on the extension plate 303. There are two vents 201, which increases the efficiency of the device in discharging water vapor. There are two sealing rods 302. The extension plate 303 is used to connect the two sealing rods 302, so that when the extension plate 303 slides, it can drive the two sealing rods 302 to simultaneously release the blockage of the vent 201. A through slot 304 is provided on the outer shell 1 of the pancake maker. A button 305 passing through the through slot 304 is installed on the extension plate 303. An arc-shaped spring plate 306 is installed on the part of the button 305 located inside the outer shell 1 of the pancake maker. An arc-shaped slot 307 for accommodating the arc-shaped spring plate 306 is provided inside the outer shell 1 of the pancake maker. The button 305 and the through slot 304 are slidably engaged. After the pancake is removed from the device, press button 305 to slide the arc-shaped spring plate 306 downwards. When the arc-shaped spring plate 306 is inserted into the arc-shaped groove 307, a noticeable undulation is felt, indicating that the extension plate 303 connected to button 305 has separated the sealing rod 302 from the vent 201. At this time, water vapor can move smoothly from the vent 201 to between the upper heating plate 101 and the lower heating plate 102. Since the arc-shaped spring plate 306 is inserted into the arc-shaped groove 307, the inner wall of the arc-shaped groove 307 blocks the arc-shaped spring plate 306, allowing button 305 to remain in the pressed position and not be reset by the return spring 301. Therefore, the operator does not need to keep their hand in a pressing position on button 305, increasing the convenience of the device. After cleaning, lift and press the button upwards. At this time, the force of lifting the button 305 and the pushing force of the return spring 301 can force the arc-shaped spring plate 306 to deform. It can be separated from the arc-shaped groove 307 by the guide of the arc-shaped surface. The extension plate 303 can drive the sealing rod 302 to reset and seal the vent 201 again, which is convenient for subsequent soldering.

[0026] like Figure 5 As shown, the specific structure of button 305 is disclosed. In some embodiments, a baffle plate 19 is installed on the part of button 305 located inside the pancake maker housing 1. An arc-shaped spring plate 306 is installed on the baffle plate 19. The projection of the baffle plate 19 on the inner wall of the pancake maker housing 1 blocks the through slot 304. The baffle plate 19 is in contact with the inner wall of the pancake maker housing 1. The length direction of the baffle plate 19 is perpendicular to the length of button 305, so that the baffle plate 19 always blocks the through slot 304, whether the button 305 is in its original position or in the pressed state, reducing the possibility of heat loss in the device and increasing the practicality of the device.

[0027] like Figure 10 As shown, in some embodiments, a guide rod 20 is installed on the first semi-ring block 902, and an abutment spring 901 is sleeved on the outside of the guide rod 20. The mounting frame 9 has a guide hole 21 for accommodating the guide rod 20. The inner ring of the abutment spring 901 is restricted by the side wall of the guide rod 20, so that the abutment spring 901 can only undergo elastic deformation along its own axis, which increases the stability of the abutment spring 901 when it undergoes elastic deformation. When the abutment spring 901 pushes the first semi-ring block 902, the guide rod 20 sidewall is restricted to the inner wall of the guide hole 21, so that the guide rod 20 and the first semi-ring block 902 can only slide along the axial direction of the guide hole 21, which increases the stability of the first semi-ring block 902 when sliding.

[0028] like Figure 9As shown, in some embodiments, an mounting block 22 is installed on the upper heating plate 101. The mounting block 22 has an inner groove 23. A push spring 24 is installed in the inner groove 23. An extension plate 25 is installed on the free end of the push spring 24. An insertion rod 26 is installed on the extension plate 25. A rubber sleeve 27 is fitted on the outside of the insertion rod 26. An inner hole 28 for accommodating the insertion rod 26 is opened on the cutter 12. The diameter of the rubber sleeve 27 is larger than the inner diameter of the inner hole 28. The cutter 12 is connected to the extension plate 25 by insertion. The rubber sleeve 27 abuts against the inner wall of the inner hole 28 through elastic deformation, so that the cutter 12 can be installed on the extension plate 25 relatively stably. The cutter 12 is detachable, which facilitates the replacement or maintenance of the cutter 12 and increases the practicality of the device. When the cutter 12 is mounted on the extension plate 25, the push spring 24 forces the extension plate 25 and the cutter 12 to move towards the opening of the inner groove 23. When the cutter 12 falls onto the cutter holder 13 to cut the silicone paper, the pushing force applied by the push spring 24 enables the cutter 12 to cut the silicone paper better. When the device is idle, if the operator's hand touches the cutter 12, the cutter 12 can also move into the inner groove 23, reducing the possibility of injury to the operator's hand and increasing the safety of the device.
