Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of cooking equipment, and in particular to a cooking machine capable of stir-frying. Background Technology
[0002] With the fast pace of life and the popularization of smart kitchens, cooking machines that can stir-fry dishes have gradually become common equipment in home and commercial kitchens because they can reduce the intensity of manual cooking and achieve automated stir-frying effects.
[0003] In existing technologies, to achieve the stirring and cooking of ingredients within a cooking machine, a drive motor is mounted on the machine's lid. The motor outputs power to rotate a stirring component (such as a paddle or spatula) connected to the motor's output shaft beneath the lid, thus completing the cooking process. However, after market research and reviewing user feedback, the inventors discovered the following: 1. The drive motor has a certain weight. Mounting it on the lid increases the overall weight of the lid. Therefore, when adding ingredients during cooking, users must first lift the heavy lid containing the drive motor, resulting in strenuous operation and a negative user experience. 2. Some dishes do not require the lid to be closed. In existing designs, the drive motor is integrated with the lid. If the lid is not closed, the drive motor cannot stir and cook the ingredients through the stirring component, preventing the cooking machine from completing these types of dishes. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The present invention aims to solve at least one of the technical problems existing in the prior art. To this end, the present invention proposes a cooking machine that can stir-fry food.
[0005] According to an embodiment of the present invention, a cooking machine capable of stir-frying includes a body, a connecting member, and a cover. The body has a cooking cavity with an upward-facing opening. The connecting member is located on the top side of the body and has a through hole located above and communicating with the opening. A mounting part is provided in the through hole, and a drive motor is provided in the mounting part. The output shaft of the drive motor is connected to a stirring component located in the cooking cavity. The cover is detachably installed on the top side of the connecting member to close the top opening of the through hole, thereby closing the opening.
[0006] A cooking machine capable of stir-frying, according to an embodiment of the present invention, has at least the following beneficial effects: Through the aforementioned structure, on the one hand, this application transfers the drive motor from the cover to a separately set intermediate component, thereby changing the existing structural design where the drive motor and cover are integrated. Since the weight of the drive motor is no longer attached to the cover, the overall weight of the cover is significantly reduced. Therefore, when adding ingredients during cooking, the user can easily lift the cover to complete the addition operation (the added material can enter the cooking chamber sequentially through the through-hole and opening), effectively reducing operational intensity and significantly improving the user experience. On the other hand, by setting an intermediate component independent of the cover and placing the drive motor in the mounting part of the intermediate component, the stirring and cooking of ingredients no longer depends on the cover's closed state. This can meet the needs of cooking dishes that do not require the cover to be closed. Therefore, the cooking machine of this application can adapt to more diverse cooking needs, greatly increasing its practicality and applicability.
[0007] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the cooking cavity is provided with a tilting slope on its cavity side.
[0008] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the intermediate connector is detachably disposed on the top side of the body.

Pressing the sliding block causes the limiting part on it to move away from the limiting groove, allowing the extension to move relatively downward away from the insertion groove, so that the connecting piece can be relatively upwardly detached from the body.
[0011] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the handle is provided with a first elastic member, the first elastic member abutting against the sliding block, and the first elastic member being capable of driving the sliding block to reset.
[0012] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the handle is provided with a spring-loaded member and a second elastic member arranged vertically. The top end of the spring-loaded member abuts against the connecting part. When the sliding block is pressed to move the limiting part on it away from the limiting groove, the second elastic member can drive the spring-loaded member to move upward and push the connecting part, so that the middle connecting member moves upward relative to the body.

For example, they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integrally formed connection; they can refer to a mechanical connection; they can refer to the internal connection of two components or the interaction between two components. Those skilled in the art can reasonably determine the specific meaning of the above terms in this invention in conjunction with the specific content of the technical solution.
[0021] Reference Figures 1 to 5 According to an embodiment of the present invention, a cooking machine capable of stir-frying food includes a body 100, a middle connector 200, and a cover 300.
[0022] The body 100 has a cooking cavity 110 with the opening 120 facing upward. The middle connector 200 is located on the top side of the body 100. The middle connector 200 has a through hole 211 located above the opening 120 and communicating with the opening 120. The through hole 211 has a mounting part 212. The mounting part 212 has a drive motor 400. The output shaft 410 of the drive motor 400 is connected to a stirring component 500 located in the cooking cavity 110. The cover 300 is detachably covered on the top side of the middle connector 200 so as to close the top side opening of the through hole 211, thereby closing the opening 120.
[0023] It is understood that the body 100 can be placed on a stove for heating to increase the temperature inside the cooking cavity 110. Of course, in some embodiments, a heating module (such as a heating plate) for heating the cooking cavity 110 is provided at the bottom of the body 100.
[0024] Through the above structure, on the one hand, this application transfers the drive motor 400 from the cover 300 to a separately set intermediate connector 200, which changes the existing structural design where the drive motor 400 and the cover 300 are integrated. Since the weight of the drive motor 400 is no longer added to the cover 300, the overall weight of the cover 300 is significantly reduced. Therefore, when the user needs to add ingredients during cooking, the user can easily lift the cover 300 to complete the addition operation (the added material can enter the cooking cavity 110 sequentially through the through hole 211 and the opening 120), effectively reducing the operational intensity and significantly improving the user experience. On the other hand, by setting an intermediate connector 200 independent of the cover 300 and placing the drive motor 400 in the mounting part 212 of the intermediate connector 200, the stirring and cooking of ingredients no longer depends on the closed state of the cover 300. This allows for cooking dishes that do not require the lid to be closed, such as stir-frying at 300°C. Therefore, the cooking machine of this application can adapt to more diverse cooking needs, greatly increasing its practicality and applicability.
[0025] In this embodiment, refer to Figure 2 , Figure 3 as well as Figure 5 The cooking cavity 110 has two tilting ramps 130 on its sides.
[0026] With the above structure, the tilting ramp 130 can cooperate with the rotating stirring component 500 inside the cooking cavity 110. When the stirring component 500 rotates to stir and cook the food, the food can move, rise and fall along the tilting ramp 130, so as to achieve the effect of stir-frying the food.
[0027] In some embodiments, the number of turning ramps 130 is set to three, etc.
[0028] In this embodiment, the intermediate connector 200 is detachably disposed on the top side of the body 100. Specifically, refer to... Figures 2 to 5 The outer side wall of the top of the body 100 is provided with a handle 140. The middle connector 200 includes a frame 210 and a connecting part 220. The inner hole of the frame 210 is the aforementioned through hole 211. The connecting part 220 is provided on the outer side wall of the frame 210. The frame 210 abuts against the top side of the body 100. The connecting part 220 is detachably provided on the upper side of the handle 140. The cover 300 is detachably provided on the top side of the frame 210.
[0029] Through the above structure, the intermediate connector 200 is detachably connected to the main body 100. On the one hand, when the intermediate connector 200 is detached from the main body 100, the cooking cavity 110 can be fully exposed, so that the user can easily clean the cooking cavity 110. On the other hand, the user can freely choose the combination of "using only the main body" (such as blanching, simple cooking), "main body + intermediate connector" (stir-frying but not covering) or "main body + intermediate connector + lid" (simmering in a closed container) according to the needs of the dish.
[0030] The connecting part 220 is detachably provided on the upper side of the carrying part 140, specifically, see [reference]. Figures 2 to 5 The handle 140 is provided with a sliding block 610, the sliding block 610 is provided with an extension 611, the extension 611 is provided with a limiting part 611A, the connecting part 220 is provided with an open-facing insertion groove 221, the groove side wall of the insertion groove 221 is provided with a limiting groove 221A, the extension 611 is inserted into the insertion groove 221, and the limiting part 611A is inserted into the limiting groove 221A. Pressing the sliding block 610 can move the limiting part 611A on it away from the limiting groove 221A, so that the extension 611 can move downward relative to move away from the insertion groove 221, so that the middle connector 200 can move upward relative to move away from the body 100.
[0031] In this embodiment, refer to Figure 3 and Figure 5 The handle 140 is provided with a first elastic element 620, which abuts against the sliding block 610 and can drive the sliding block 610 to return to its original position. The first elastic element 620 is configured as a spring.
[0032] Understandably, when the connecting part 220 is located on the upper side of the handle part 140, the first elastic member 620 drives the limiting part 611A to remain inserted in the limiting groove 221A, so as to maintain the connection between the middle connector 200 and the body 100; when the sliding block 610 is pressed to move the limiting part 611A on it out of the limiting groove 221A, the first elastic member 620 is compressed and stored so as to drive the sliding block 610 to reset when the pressing is released.
[0033] In this embodiment, refer to Figure 2 , Figure 4 as well as Figure 5 The handle 140 is provided with a spring 630 and a second elastic member 640 arranged vertically. The top end of the spring 630 abuts against the connecting part 220. The second elastic member 640 is a spring. When the sliding block 610 is pressed so that the limiting part 611A on it moves away from the limiting groove 221A, the second elastic member 640 can drive the spring 630 to move upward and push the connecting part 220, so that the middle connecting member 200 moves upward relative to the body 100.
[0034] With the above structure, when the user presses the sliding block 610 to unlock, the energy stored in the compressed second elastic element 640 is immediately released, so that the connecting part 220 can be pushed upward through the spring member 630 to complete the initial lifting of the middle connector 200, so that the user can easily lift the middle connector 200 afterwards.
[0035] In this embodiment, refer to Figure 3 The connecting part 220 is provided with a receiving cavity 222 for the installation of power supply components (not shown in the figure), and the mounting part 212 is provided with a mounting cavity 212A for the installation of the drive motor 400, and a wiring channel 212B connecting the mounting cavity 212A and the receiving cavity 222. The electrical components can be electrically connected to the drive motor 400 through the wiring channel 212B.
[0036] With the aforementioned structure, the cooking machine operates in a high-temperature, high-humidity environment, often containing oil stains, moisture, and food residue. The enclosed wiring design physically isolates sensitive electrical components from the cooking cavity environment, significantly improving the long-term stability and corrosion resistance of the electrical system.
[0037] In this embodiment, refer to Figures 1 to 5 The two handles 140 and the two connecting parts 220 are each provided in pairs. The two handles 140 are located on both sides of the body 100, and the two connecting parts 220 are located on both sides of the frame 210. The two connecting parts 220 are detachably provided on the upper side of the two handles 140 in a corresponding manner.
[0038] In some embodiments, the connecting part 220 and the carrying part 140 are both provided as one.
[0039] Of course, the present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiments. Those skilled in the art can make equivalent modifications or substitutions without departing from the spirit of the present invention, and these equivalent modifications and substitutions are all included within the scope defined by the claims of this application.
