[0068] Please see Figures 1 to 4According to an embodiment of the present invention, a cooking appliance 200 includes a cavity 10 and a cleaning component 80. The cavity 10 is provided with a cooking chamber 100. A plurality of spray holes 20 are provided at the top corner 15 of the cavity 10. The spray holes 20 are connected to the cooking chamber 100. The cleaning component 80 is connected to the spray holes 20. The cleaning component 80 is configured to introduce a cleaning medium into the spray holes 20 so that the spray holes 20 spray the cleaning medium into the cooking chamber 100.

[0069] In the aforementioned cooking appliance 200, the cleaning component 80 can spray the cleaning medium into the cooking cavity 100 through the spray nozzle 20 to clean the cooking cavity 100, thereby removing the oil stains inside the cooking cavity 100 and ensuring the cooking efficiency of the cooking appliance 200 and the cooking effect of the food to a certain extent.

[0070] Specifically, cooking appliances 200 include, but are not limited to, integrated cooktops, steam ovens, ovens, and microwave-steam-oven combination appliances. Integrated cooktops may include a steam oven, an oven, or a microwave-steam-oven combination appliance. Optionally, please refer to... Figures 1 to 4 The cooking appliance 200 is an integrated stove-steam oven with multiple functions such as steaming, baking, defrosting, and heating. The cooking appliance 200 includes a steam generator, a heating element 90, a hot air fan, and a cavity 10. The cavity 10 has a cooking chamber 100, which is located inside the cooking appliance 200 and is used to hold the ingredients to be cooked.

[0071] When the cooking appliance 200 is in steaming mode, the steam generator starts working, and the generated high-temperature steam enters the cooking cavity 100 through pipes, thereby heating and cooking the food in the cooking cavity 100. When the cooking appliance 200 is in baking mode, the heating element 90 starts working, emitting high-temperature heat energy to heat and bake the food in the cooking cavity 100. At the same time, the hot air fan blows hot air evenly to all corners of the cooking cavity 100 through the air duct to ensure that the food is heated evenly.

[0072] In related technologies, after a period of use, oil and other grease produced during cooking easily adhere to the metal inner walls of the cooking cavity in steam ovens. However, current steam oven cleaning designs cannot achieve comprehensive cleaning of the cooking cavity. If not cleaned in time, bacteria and odors can easily develop, leading to low cooking efficiency and poor food preparation.

[0073] In the embodiments of the present invention, please refer to Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 6The top corner 15 of the cavity 10 refers to the curved or turned portion of the top edge of the cavity 10. The top plane of the cavity 10 is connected to the inner wall of the cavity 10 through the top corner 15. Multiple spray holes 20 are provided at the top corner 15 of the cavity 10, and the spray holes 20 are connected to the cooking cavity 100. The cooking appliance 200 includes a cleaning component 80, which can be installed on the side of the cavity 10 away from the cooking cavity 100. The cleaning component 80 is connected to the spray holes 20, allowing the cleaning component 80 to introduce cleaning medium into the spray holes 20. The spray holes 20 spray the cleaning medium into the cooking cavity 100 to clean the inner wall of the cooking cavity 100, thereby removing grease from the inner wall of the cooking cavity 100 and, to a certain extent, ensuring the cooking efficiency of the cooking appliance 200 and the cooking effect of the food. Optionally, the cleaning medium includes, but is not limited to, cold water, hot water, steam, a mixture of hot water and steam, and cleaning agents (detergents or foaming agents).

[0074] The number of nozzles 20 can be specifically limited according to actual conditions, but the present invention does not make a specific limitation in this regard.

[0075] In some embodiments, the top of the cavity 10 has two opposing corners 15, each corner 15 having a plurality of nozzles 20.

[0076] In this way, the space at the top of the cavity 10 can be effectively utilized to increase the spray area of ​​the cleaning medium, thereby improving the spray efficiency of the cleaning medium and the cleaning effect of the cooking cavity 100 to a certain extent.

[0077] Specifically, please combine Figure 3 and Figure 6 The top of the cavity 10 includes two corners 15, located on the left and right sides of the cavity 10 respectively, forming a symmetrical layout. Each corner 15 has multiple spray holes 20, allowing the spray holes 20 to more effectively utilize the space at the top of the cavity 10. The cleaning component 80 can introduce cleaning medium into the spray holes 20, which spray the cleaning medium into the cooking cavity 100 to clean the inner walls of the cooking cavity 100. The symmetrically distributed spray holes 20 increase the spray area of ​​the cleaning medium, allowing it to cover all corners of the cooking cavity 100, thus improving the cleaning effect of the cooking cavity 100 to a certain extent.

[0078] The number of nozzles 20 at each corner 15 can be specifically limited according to actual conditions; this invention does not impose a specific limitation on this. In one example, please refer to... Figure 4 There are 10 nozzles 20 at each corner. The number of nozzles 20 at each corner 15 can be the same or different.

[0079] In some embodiments, the nozzle 20 includes a first nozzle 21 and a second nozzle 22, wherein the axial direction of the first nozzle 21 is different from the axial direction of the second nozzle 22.

[0080] This increases the coverage area of ​​the cleaning medium, thereby improving the cleaning effect to some extent.

[0081] Specifically, each cavity 10 is provided with a first spray hole 21 and a second spray hole 22 at the top corner 15. The axial direction of the first spray hole 21 is different from that of the second spray hole 22. Since the axial direction of the spray hole 20 determines the main direction of the cleaning medium spray, the direction of the cleaning medium sprayed by the first spray hole 21 is different from that of the second spray hole 22. That is, the cleaning medium can be sprayed into the cooking cavity 100 along different paths and directions for cleaning, thereby increasing the coverage area of ​​the cleaning medium and improving the cleaning effect to a certain extent.

[0082] In some embodiments, the axial direction of the first nozzle 21 is substantially perpendicular to the axial direction of the second nozzle 22.

[0083] In this way, when cleaning the cooking cavity 100, all the inner walls of the cavity 10 can be taken into account, so that the cleaning medium basically covers all areas of the cooking cavity 100, thereby cleaning the cooking cavity 100 more effectively.

[0084] Specifically, in one implementation, please refer to... Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 6 The first nozzle 21 is located at the top corner 15 of the cavity 10, close to the top plane of the cavity 10. The axial direction of the first nozzle 21 is basically parallel to the top plane of the cavity 10, which allows the direction of the cleaning medium sprayed by the first nozzle 21 to be basically parallel to the top plane of the cavity 10, so that the cleaning medium sprayed by the first nozzle 21 can cover the inner top wall of the cooking cavity 100 laterally.

[0085] The second nozzle 22 is located at the top corner 15 of the cavity 10, close to the inner wall of the cavity 10. The axial direction of the second nozzle 22 is basically perpendicular to the axial direction of the first nozzle 21, that is, the axial direction of the second nozzle 22 is basically perpendicular to the top plane of the cavity 10. This allows the cleaning medium sprayed by the second nozzle 22 to be basically perpendicular to the top plane of the cavity 10, so that the cleaning medium sprayed by the second nozzle 22 can longitudinally cover the left and right inner walls of the cavity 10.

[0086] Therefore, the axial direction of the first nozzle 21 is basically perpendicular to the axial direction of the second nozzle 22. During cleaning, it can ensure that the cleaning medium evenly covers and cleans each inner wall of the cavity 10 to a certain extent, thereby cleaning the cooking cavity 100 and further improving the cleaning effect.

[0087] The number of the first nozzle 21 and the number of the second nozzle 22 can be specifically limited according to actual conditions, and the present invention does not make a specific limitation in this regard. In one example, please refer to... Figure 4 At each corner 15, there are 5 first nozzles 21 and 5 second nozzles 22.

[0088] In some embodiments, the multiple nozzles 20 are arranged in an array.

[0089] This allows the cleaning medium to be sprayed evenly from each nozzle 20, thus improving spraying efficiency to some extent.

[0090] Specifically, please combine Figure 4 Multiple nozzles 20 are arranged in an array at the top corner 15 of the cavity 10. The distance between two nozzles 20 in the front-to-back direction is equal, and the distance between two nozzles 20 in the left-to-right direction is equal. Therefore, the cleaning medium can be sprayed evenly from each nozzle 20, which improves the spraying efficiency to a certain extent.

[0091] In this embodiment, the matrix arrangement of multiple nozzles 20 includes m nozzles 20 along the front-to-back direction and n nozzles 20 along the left-to-right direction. The values ​​of m and n in the matrix of the multiple nozzles 20 can be specifically defined according to actual needs; however, this embodiment does not impose such specific limitations. In this embodiment, the matrix m×n of the multiple nozzles 20 is 5×2.

[0092] In some embodiments, the nozzle 20 has a gradually expanding shape along the direction close to the interior of the cooking chamber 100.

[0093] In this way, the cleaning medium sprayed from the nozzle 20 can be diffused, further increasing the coverage area of ​​the cleaning medium.

[0094] Specifically, in the embodiments of the present invention, please refer to... Figure 3 and Figure 4 The nozzle 20 has a gradually expanding shape along the direction close to the interior of the cooking cavity 100, that is, the nozzle 20 gradually expands from the end away from the cooking cavity 100 to the end close to the interior of the cooking cavity 100, so that when the cleaning medium is sprayed out through the gradually expanding nozzle 20, the cleaning medium forms a diffused spray at the outlet of the nozzle 20 (e.g., Figure 6 Because the cleaning medium is sprayed into the cooking cavity 100 in a diffused manner, the area covered by the cleaning medium can be further increased, which can more effectively clean every corner of the cooking cavity 100, and the cleaning medium can be more evenly distributed in the cooking cavity 100, thus improving the cleaning effect to a certain extent.

[0095] In some embodiments, the cleaning assembly 80 includes a first nozzle 30 disposed outside the cavity 10. The first nozzle 30 is provided with a plurality of ejection holes 33, which are connected to the nozzle 20.

[0096] In this way, the first nozzle 30 can be more easily maintained and replaced when needed, and is easier to pre-install and fix, which improves the overall assembly efficiency to a certain extent.

[0097] Specifically, please combine Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 5 The first nozzle 30 is located outside the cavity 10, specifically at the top corner 15 of the cavity 10, away from the interior of the cooking cavity 100. This ensures the first nozzle 30 is positioned outside the cavity 10, with one first nozzle 30 corresponding to the outer surface of each top corner 15 of the cavity 10. Therefore, the first nozzle 30 can be more easily maintained and replaced when needed, and its manufacturing is easier, improving overall assembly efficiency to some extent.

[0098] Please combine Figure 7 and Figure 9 The first nozzle 30 is provided with a plurality of ejection holes 33, which are channels through which the cleaning medium is ejected from the first nozzle 30 and enters the cooking chamber 100. In one embodiment, each ejection hole 33 may be connected to a corresponding spray hole 20, so that the cleaning medium can enter from the ejection hole 33 into the spray hole 20 and be sprayed from the spray hole 20 into the cooking chamber 100 for cleaning. In other embodiments, each ejection hole 33 may be connected to two or more spray holes 20, or each spray hole 20 may be connected to two or more ejection holes 33.

[0099] Please combine Figure 1 , Figure 7 and Figure 8 The first nozzle 30 is connected to a water inlet pipe 36, which is connected to a pipeline through which the cleaning medium is introduced. When the cleaning assembly 80 cleans the cooking cavity 100, the cleaning medium is transported by the pipeline to the water inlet pipe 36 and enters the interior of the first nozzle 30. The cleaning medium enters the spray hole 20 connected to each spray hole 33 through each spray hole 33, and the spray hole 20 sprays the cleaning medium evenly into the cooking cavity 100 to clean the cooking cavity 100.

[0100] The number of ejection holes 33 on the first nozzle 30 can be specifically limited according to actual conditions, and this invention does not impose a specific limitation on this. Please refer to Figure 7 and Figure 9 Each first nozzle 30 has 10 ejection holes 33, and each ejection hole 33 on the first nozzle 30 corresponds to an ejection hole 20 at the top corner 15 of each cavity 10.

[0101] In some embodiments, the shape of the first nozzle 30 is adapted to the shape of the top corner 15 of the cavity 10, and the first nozzle 30 is in contact with the outer side of the top corner 15 of the cavity 10.

[0102] This allows the first nozzle 30 to fit tightly against the top corner 15 of the cavity 10, preventing leakage of the cleaning medium to some extent.

[0103] Specifically, please combine Figures 7 to 9 The shape of the first nozzle 30 is adapted to the shape of the top corner 15 of the cavity 10, that is, the side of the first nozzle 30 facing the cavity 10 is adapted to the shape of the outer side of the top corner 15 of the cavity 10, so that the side of the first nozzle 30 facing the cavity 10 and the outer side of the top corner 15 are closely fitted, and the first nozzle 30 forms a contour nozzle. Therefore, when the cleaning medium enters the spray hole 20 from the outlet 33 of the first nozzle 30, leakage of the cleaning medium between the first nozzle 30 and the top corner 15 can be prevented to a certain extent.

[0104] In some embodiments, a mounting through hole is provided at the top corner 15 of the cavity 10, and the cleaning assembly 80 includes a second nozzle embedded in the mounting through hole, the second nozzle having a plurality of spray holes 20.

[0105] This allows the overall structure of the cleaning component 80 to be compact, saving space.

[0106] Specifically, each cavity 10 has a mounting through hole at its top corner 15, and a second nozzle is embedded in one of the mounting through holes. The second nozzle has a spray hole 20 and a water inlet pipe 36, wherein the water inlet pipe 36 is connected to a pipeline for supplying cleaning medium. When the cleaning assembly 80 cleans the cooking cavity 100, the cleaning medium is transported by the pipeline to the water inlet pipe 36 and enters the interior of the second nozzle. The cleaning medium is then evenly sprayed into the cooking cavity 100 through the spray hole 20 to clean the cooking cavity 100.

[0107] In some embodiments, the shape of the second nozzle is adapted to the shape of the top corner 15 of the cavity 10.

[0108] This allows the second nozzle to be tightly and securely embedded in the cavity 10, reducing the leakage of cleaning media to some extent.

[0109] Specifically, the second nozzle is embedded in the mounting through hole at the corner of the cavity 10, and the shape of the second nozzle is adapted to the shape of the top corner 15 of the cavity 10, so that the second nozzle can be tightly and securely embedded in the cavity 10, and the side of the second nozzle near the inside of the cooking cavity 100 is connected to the top plane of the cavity 10 and the side wall of the cavity 10 respectively, forming a continuous transition surface. When the cleaning component 80 is working, it can prevent the cleaning medium from leaking from the second nozzle and the cavity 10 to a certain extent.

[0110] In some embodiments, the cleaning assembly 80 includes a first valve 51, a first cleaning medium source, a second valve 52, and a second cleaning medium source. The first valve 51 is connected to the nozzle 20 and the first cleaning medium source, respectively, and the second valve 52 is connected to the nozzle 20 and the second cleaning medium source, respectively.

[0111] In this way, different cleaning needs can be flexibly met.

[0112] Specifically, please combine Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 5 The cleaning component 80 includes a three-way pipe 40, the output end of which is connected to the inlet pipe 36 of the first nozzle 30 via a pipeline. One input end of the three-way pipe 40 is connected to a first cleaning medium source via a pipeline. A first valve 51 is located between one input end of the three-way pipe 40 and the first cleaning medium source. The first cleaning medium source can pump the first cleaning medium to the first valve 51 via a water pump 63. The first valve 51 is used to control the flow rate of the first cleaning medium entering the three-way pipe 40. The first cleaning medium source may include, but is not limited to, a water storage tank or a steam generator. The first cleaning medium includes, but is not limited to, cold water, hot water, steam, or a mixture of steam and hot water.

[0113] The other inlet of the three-way pipe 40 is connected to a second cleaning medium source via a pipeline. A second valve 52 is located between the other inlet of the three-way pipe 40 and the second cleaning medium source. The second cleaning medium source can pump the second cleaning medium to the second valve 52 via the washing pump 66. The second valve 52 is used to control the flow rate of the second cleaning medium into the three-way pipe 40. The second cleaning medium source may include, but is not limited to, the detergent box 69, and the second cleaning medium may include, but is not limited to, detergent or foaming agent.

[0114] Please combine Figure 11 The cooking appliance 200 includes a controller 150, which is electrically connected to a first valve 51 and a second valve 52, thereby controlling the opening and closing of the first valve 51 and the second valve 52. Figure 6This is a schematic diagram of the cleaning function of the cooking appliance 200 according to an embodiment of the present invention. Optionally, in one embodiment, when the cooking appliance 200 activates the cleaning function, the controller 150 can first control the first valve 51 to open to introduce the first cleaning medium (the first cleaning medium is hot). The medium flows through the inlet pipe 36 of the first nozzle 30 into the interior of the first nozzle 30 and through the outlet hole 33 into the spray hole 20. The medium is then sprayed from the spray hole 20 into the cooking chamber 100 to initially soften the grease in the cooking chamber 100. Then, the controller 150 controls the first valve 51 to close and then controls the second valve 52 to open to introduce the second cleaning medium (…). The second cleaning medium (detergent) flows into the first nozzle 30 and enters the nozzle 20 through the outlet 33. It is sprayed into the cooking chamber 100 to dissolve the oil stains in all directions. Then, the second valve 52 is closed and the first valve 51 is opened again to allow the first cleaning medium to be introduced to rinse the cooking chamber 100. Finally, the controller 150 controls the first valve 51 and the second valve 52 to close and controls the heating element 90 and the hot air fan of the cooking appliance 200 to dry the cooking chamber 100 with hot air within a preset time. After drying, the cleaning is completed.

[0115] Optionally, in one embodiment, when the cooking appliance 200 starts the cleaning function, the controller 150 can control the first valve 51 and the second valve 52 to open simultaneously to introduce the first cleaning medium and the second cleaning medium. After mixing in the three-way pipe 40, they flow into the first nozzle 30 and enter the nozzle 20 through the outlet hole 33. They are then sprayed from the nozzle 20 onto the cooking chamber 100 to clean the cooking chamber 100. Finally, the controller 150 controls the first valve 51 and the second valve 52 to close, and controls the heating element 90 and the hot air fan of the cooking appliance 200 to dry the cooking chamber 100 with hot air within a preset time. After drying, the cleaning is completed.

[0116] Optionally, in one embodiment, when the cooking appliance 200 activates the cleaning function, the controller 150 can control the opening degree and duration of the first valve 51 and the second valve 52 to adjust the flow rate or proportion of the first cleaning medium and the second cleaning medium to address different levels of grease in the cooking cavity 100. In one example, when the controller 150 detects that the grease level in the cooking cavity 100 is light, the controller 150 simultaneously controls the first valve 51 and the second valve 52, wherein the proportion of the second cleaning medium flowing through the second valve 52 is relatively small, or only one of the first valve 51 and the second valve 52 is controlled to flow through a single cleaning medium. In one example, when the controller 150 detects that the current grease level in the cooking cavity 100 is heavy, the controller 150 simultaneously controls the first valve 51 and the second valve 52, wherein the controller 150 controls the proportion of the second cleaning medium flowing through the second valve 52 to be relatively large. After the mixed cleaning medium has finished cleaning the cooking cavity 100, the controller 150 controls the first valve 51 to open and introduce the first cleaning medium to rinse the cooking cavity 100. Finally, the controller controls the first valve 51 to close and controls the heating element 90 and hot air fan of the cooking appliance 200 to dry the cooking cavity 100 with hot air within a preset time. After drying, the cleaning is completed.

[0117] In some embodiments, the cleaning assembly 80 includes a heater 75 configured to heat a first cleaning medium from a first cleaning medium source and / or a second cleaning medium from a second cleaning medium source.

[0118] Thus, heater 75 can heat the cleaning medium to achieve the optimal cleaning temperature, thereby improving the cleaning effect to some extent.

[0119] Specifically, please combine Figure 1 and Figure 2 The cleaning component 80 includes a heater 75, which heats the cleaning medium to achieve an optimal cleaning temperature, thereby better dissolving grease in the cooking cavity 100. The heater 75 is connected to a nozzle 20 via a pipe, allowing the heated cleaning medium to be fed into the nozzle 20, which then sprays the cleaning medium into the cooking cavity 100 for cleaning.

[0120] exist Figure 6 In this embodiment, the heater 75 is connected to the first cleaning medium source through a pipeline. The first cleaning medium (such as cold water) provided by the first cleaning medium source is pumped to the heater 75 for heating. The heated first cleaning medium (such as steam, hot water or a mixture of hot water and steam) is input to the nozzle 20 through the pipeline. The nozzle 20 sprays the first cleaning medium into the cooking chamber 100 for cleaning.

[0121] In one embodiment, the heater 75 is connected to the second cleaning medium source via a pipeline. The second cleaning medium provided by the second cleaning medium source is heated by the heater 75, and the heated second cleaning medium is input to the spray nozzle 20 through the pipeline. The spray nozzle 20 sprays the second cleaning medium into the cooking cavity 100 for cleaning. The second cleaning medium includes, but is not limited to, detergents or foaming agents.

[0122] The type of heater 75 can be specifically defined according to actual conditions, and the present invention does not make a specific limitation in this regard. In one example, heater 75 may include, but is not limited to, heating tubes, heating plates, and heating elements.

[0123] In one embodiment, the heater 75 is connected to the first cleaning medium source and the second cleaning medium source through pipelines. The first cleaning medium provided by the first cleaning medium source is heated by the heater 75, and the second cleaning medium provided by the second cleaning medium source is heated by the heater 75. The heated first and second cleaning media are input to the spray nozzle 20 through pipelines, and the spray nozzle 20 sprays the first and second cleaning media into the cooking cavity 100 for cleaning.

[0124] Please combine Figure 11 The controller 150 is electrically connected to the heater 75. It is understood that the controller 150 can control the heater 75 to be turned on or off based on the degree of grease buildup in the cooking cavity 100 and the type of cleaning medium. In one example, if the cleaning medium supplied to the heater 75 is cold water or cold detergent, the controller 150 controls the heater 75 to be turned on, heating the cold cleaning medium (including but not limited to cold water and cold detergent) to the optimal cleaning temperature, which is then sprayed into the cooking cavity 100 through the nozzle 20 for cleaning. In another example, if the cleaning medium supplied to the heater 75 is a hot cleaning medium (including but not limited to hot water, steam, or a mixture of hot water and steam), the controller 150 controls the heater 75 to be turned off, allowing the nozzle 20 to directly spray the cleaning medium into the cooking cavity 100 for cleaning.

[0125] In some embodiments, the second cleaning medium source includes a detergent cartridge 69 disposed on the top of the cavity 10.

[0126] In this way, the overall size and space occupied by the cooking appliance 200 can be reduced, and the space utilization of the cooking appliance 200 can be optimized to a certain extent.

[0127] Specifically, the second cleaning medium source includes a detergent dispenser 69, which is used to contain a second cleaning medium, including but not limited to detergent. Please refer to... Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 5The detergent box 69 is located on the top of the cavity 10, which can make full use of the vertical space inside the cooking appliance 200 and avoid occupying the cooking area. This can save the overall size and space occupied by the cooking appliance 200, and optimize the space utilization of the cooking appliance 200 to a certain extent.

[0128] The detergent dispenser 69 is connected to the spray nozzle 20 via a pipe, allowing the second cleaning medium to be introduced into the spray nozzle 20 through the pipe and then sprayed into the cooking cavity 100 for cleaning.

[0129] In some embodiments, the bottom of the cavity 10 is provided with a drain hole 85.

[0130] Thus, the drain hole 85 allows the waste liquid generated after cleaning to be discharged to the outside of the cooking appliance 200, thereby keeping the inside of the cooking cavity 100 dry and clean.

[0131] Specifically, please combine Figure 1 and Figure 2 Multiple drain holes 85 are located at the bottom of the cavity 10. The drain holes 85 can be connected to the outside of the cooking appliance 200 or the waste liquid box of the cooking appliance 200 through pipes, thereby connecting the cooking cavity 100 to the outside of the cooking appliance 200 or the waste liquid box. When the cleaning component 80 cleans the cooking cavity 100, the waste liquid generated during cleaning can flow to the drain holes 85 and be discharged to the outside of the cooking appliance 200 or the waste liquid box through pipes, so that the waste liquid will not accumulate in the cooking cavity 100, thus keeping the inside of the cooking cavity 100 dry and clean, and ensuring the normal operation of the cooking appliance 200 to a certain extent.

[0132] The shape and number of drainage holes 85 can be specifically defined according to actual conditions, and this invention does not impose specific limitations on them. In one example, please refer to... Figure 1 and Figure 2 The drain hole 85 is elongated in shape, and there are 4 drain holes 85.

[0133] Please combine Figure 10 The present invention provides a control method for a cooking appliance 200. The cooking appliance 200 includes a cavity 10 and a cleaning component 80. The cavity 10 is provided with a cooking chamber 100. A plurality of spray holes 20 are provided at the top corner 15 of the cavity 10. The spray holes 20 are connected to the cooking chamber 100. The cleaning component 80 is connected to the spray holes 20.

[0134] Control methods include:

[0135] 01, The cleaning component 80 is controlled to deliver a first cleaning medium and / or a second cleaning medium to the nozzle 20 so that the first cleaning medium and / or the second cleaning medium are sprayed into the cooking chamber 100, wherein the first cleaning medium is different from the second cleaning medium.

[0136] In this way, different cleaning programs can be adjusted according to different levels of grease in the cooking cavity 100, thereby cleaning the cooking cavity 100 more effectively.

[0137] Specifically, please combine Figures 1 to 5 Multiple spray holes 20 are provided at the top corner 15 of the cavity 10, and the spray holes 20 are connected to the cooking cavity 100. The cooking appliance 200 includes a cleaning component 80, and the first nozzle 30 of the cleaning component 80 is installed at the top corner 15 of the cavity 10 on the side opposite to the cooking cavity 100. The cleaning component 80 includes a heater 75, a washing box, a water pump 63, a detergent box 69, a first valve 51, a second valve 52, a three-way pipe 40, and the first nozzle 30. A first cleaning medium source (such as a water tank) is sequentially connected to one of the input ends of the heater 75, the water pump 63, the first valve 51, and the three-way pipe 40. A second cleaning medium source (such as a detergent box 69), a washing pump 66, the second valve 52, and the other input end of the three-way pipe 40 are sequentially connected. The output end of the three-way pipe 40 is connected to the water inlet pipe 36 of the first nozzle 30 through a pipeline. The outlet hole 33 of the first nozzle 30 is connected to the spray hole 20.

[0138] The first cleaning medium differs from the second cleaning medium. Optionally, the first cleaning medium includes, but is not limited to, cold water, hot water, steam, or a mixture of steam and hot water, while the second cleaning medium includes, but is not limited to, detergents or foaming agents.

[0139] Please combine Figure 11 The cooking appliance 200 includes a controller 150, which is electrically connected to a first valve 51, a second valve 52, a water pump 63, and a washing pump 66, thereby controlling the operating status of the first valve 51, the second valve 52, the water pump 63, and the washing pump 66.

[0140] In one embodiment, the controller 150 controls the cleaning assembly 80 to deliver a first cleaning medium to the nozzle 20 so that the first cleaning medium is sprayed into the cooking chamber 100. When the cooking appliance 200 starts the cleaning function, the controller 150 controls the first valve 51 and the water pump 63 to open to allow the first cleaning medium to enter. The first cleaning medium is first heated by the heater 75 to become a hot first cleaning medium, and then, due to the pumping action of the water pump 63, it enters the first nozzle 30 through the first valve 51 and the water inlet pipe 36 in sequence, enters the nozzle 20 through the outlet hole 33, and is sprayed into the cooking chamber 100 from the nozzle 20 for cleaning.

[0141] In one embodiment, the controller 150 controls the cleaning assembly 80 to deliver a second cleaning medium to the spray nozzle 20, so that the second cleaning medium is sprayed into the cooking cavity 100. When the cooking appliance 200 starts the cleaning function, the controller 150 controls the second valve 52 and the washing pump 66 to open to allow the second cleaning medium to enter. The second cleaning medium in the detergent box 69 enters the first nozzle 30 through the second valve 52 and the water inlet pipe 36 due to the pumping action of the washing pump 66, enters the spray nozzle 20 through the outlet hole 33, and is sprayed into the cooking cavity 100 by the spray nozzle 20 for cleaning.

[0142] In one embodiment, the controller 150 controls the cleaning assembly 80 to deliver a first cleaning medium and a second cleaning medium to the spray nozzle 20, so that the first and second cleaning media are sprayed into the cooking cavity 100. When the cooking appliance 200 activates the cleaning function, the controller 150 can control the first valve 51, the second valve 52, the water pump 63, and the washing pump 66 to open simultaneously to introduce the first and second cleaning media to form a mixed cleaning medium. The first cleaning medium is first heated by the heater 75 to become a hot first cleaning medium, and then, due to the pumping action of the water pump 63, it sequentially passes through the first valve 51 and the water inlet pipe 36 into the three-way pipe 40. The second cleaning medium in the detergent box 69, due to the pumping action of the washing pump 66, sequentially passes through the second valve 52 and the water inlet pipe 36 into the three-way pipe 40. After the first and second cleaning media are mixed in the three-way pipe 40, they flow into the first nozzle 30 and enter the spray nozzle 20 through the outlet hole 33, and are then sprayed from the spray nozzle 20 into the cooking cavity 100 to clean the cooking cavity 100.

[0143] In some embodiments, controlling the cleaning assembly 80 to deliver a first cleaning medium and / or a second cleaning medium to the spray nozzle 20, so that the first cleaning medium and / or the second cleaning medium are sprayed into the cooking chamber 100, includes:

[0144] The cleaning component 80 delivers the first cleaning medium to the nozzle 20 within a first preset time period;

[0145] After the first preset time period ends, the control cleaning component 80 delivers the second cleaning medium to the spray nozzle 20 within the second preset time period;

[0146] After the second preset time period ends, the cleaning component 80 is controlled to deliver the first cleaning medium to the nozzle 20.

[0147] This can further enhance the cleaning effect of the cooking cavity 100.

[0148] Specifically, when the cooking appliance 200 activates its cleaning function, the controller 150 first controls the first valve 51 and water pump 63 to open for a first preset time period. The first cleaning medium is first heated by the heater 75 to become a hot first cleaning medium. Then, due to the pumping action of the water pump 63, it passes through the first valve 51 and the water inlet pipe 36 into the interior of the first nozzle 30, and then enters the spray hole 20 through the outlet hole 33. The spray hole 20 is then sprayed onto the cooking chamber 100 to initially soften the grease in the cooking chamber 100. After the first preset time period ends, the controller 150 controls the first valve 51 to close, and then controls the second valve 52 to open for a second preset time period. The second cleaning medium flows into the interior of the first nozzle 30 and enters the spray hole 20 through the outlet hole 33. The spray hole 20 is then sprayed onto the cooking chamber 100 to dissolve the grease in all directions. After the second preset time period ends, the controller 150 controls the second valve 52 to close, and then controls the first valve 51 to open again to allow the first cleaning medium to be introduced to rinse the cooking chamber 100.

[0149] Optionally, the first preset duration and the second preset duration can be specifically limited by means of testing, experimentation, etc., but the present invention does not make specific limitations in this regard.

[0150] In some embodiments, controlling the cleaning assembly 80 to deliver a first cleaning medium and / or a second cleaning medium to the spray nozzle 20, so that the first cleaning medium and / or the second cleaning medium are sprayed into the cooking chamber 100, includes:

[0151] The cleaning component 80 simultaneously delivers a first cleaning medium and a second cleaning medium to the nozzle 20.

[0152] This can enhance the cleaning effect and improve cleaning efficiency to some extent.

[0153] Specifically, when the cooking appliance 200 activates its cleaning function, the controller 150 can simultaneously open the first valve 51, the second valve 52, the water pump 63, and the washing pump 66 to introduce the first cleaning medium and the second cleaning medium. The first cleaning medium is first heated by the heater 75 to become a hot first cleaning medium, and then, due to the pumping action of the water pump 63, it sequentially passes through the first valve 51 and the water inlet pipe 36 into the three-way pipe 40. The second cleaning medium in the detergent box 69, due to the pumping action of the washing pump 66, sequentially passes through the second valve 52 and the water inlet pipe 36 into the three-way pipe 40. After the first and second cleaning media mix in the three-way pipe 40, they flow into the first nozzle 30 and enter the spray hole 20 through the outlet hole 33, and are then sprayed from the spray hole 20 onto the cooking cavity 100 to clean the cooking cavity 100.

[0154] Understandably, the controller 150 can control the opening degree and duration of the first valve 51 and the second valve 52 to adjust the flow rate or ratio of the first cleaning medium and the second cleaning medium to address different levels of grease buildup in the cooking cavity 100. In one example, when the controller 150 detects a light level of grease buildup in the cooking cavity 100, the controller 150 simultaneously controls both the first valve 51 and the second valve 52, with the second cleaning medium being introduced through the second valve 52 at a smaller ratio. In another example, when the controller 150 detects a heavy level of grease buildup in the cooking cavity 100, the controller 150 simultaneously controls both the first valve 51 and the second valve 52, with the second cleaning medium being introduced through the second valve 52 at a larger ratio. After the mixed cleaning medium has cleaned the cooking cavity 100, the controller 150 then separately controls the first valve 51 to open and introduce the first cleaning medium to rinse the cooking cavity 100.

[0155] In some implementations, the control method includes:

[0156] When the delivery of the first cleaning medium and / or the second cleaning medium into the cooking cavity 100 is stopped, the cooking appliance 200 is controlled to dry the cooking cavity 100 with hot air.

[0157] In this way, the cleaned cooking cavity 100 can be dried with hot air, which to a certain extent ensures the normal operation of the cooking appliance 200 afterwards.

[0158] Specifically, the cooking appliance 200 includes a heating element 90 and a hot air fan, used for heating and baking food inside the cooking cavity 100, and also for drying the cleaned cooking cavity 100 with hot air. Because a small amount of water may still remain in the cleaned cooking cavity 100, proper heating and drying can reduce its impact on subsequent cooking. The hot air fan is used to evenly distribute the heat generated by the heating element 90 throughout the entire cooking cavity 100, improving drying efficiency to some extent.

[0159] In one embodiment, the controller 150 controls the cleaning component 80 to deliver a first cleaning medium to the spray nozzle 20 so that the first cleaning medium is sprayed into the cooking chamber 100. After cleaning is completed, the controller 150 controls the first valve 51 to close. When the delivery of the first cleaning medium into the cooking chamber 100 stops, the controller 150 controls the heating element 90 and the hot air fan of the cooking appliance 200 to dry the cooking chamber 100 with hot air for a preset time. After drying, the cleaning is completed.

[0160] In one embodiment, the controller 150 controls the cleaning component 80 to deliver a second cleaning medium to the spray nozzle 20 so that the second cleaning medium is sprayed into the cooking chamber 100. After cleaning is completed, the controller 150 controls the second valve 52 to close. When the delivery of the second cleaning medium into the cooking chamber 100 stops, the controller 150 controls the heating element 90 and the hot air fan of the cooking appliance 200 to dry the cooking chamber 100 with hot air for a preset time. After drying, the cleaning is completed.

[0161] In one embodiment, the controller 150 controls the cleaning component 80 to deliver a first cleaning medium and a second cleaning medium to the spray nozzle 20 so that the first cleaning medium and the second cleaning medium are sprayed into the cooking chamber 100. After cleaning is completed, the controller 150 controls the first valve 51 and the second valve 52 to close and then stops delivering the first cleaning medium and the second cleaning medium into the cooking chamber 100. The controller 150 then controls the heating element 90 and the hot air fan of the cooking appliance 200 to dry the cooking chamber 100 with hot air for a preset time. After drying, the cleaning is completed.

[0165] Specifically, the cooking appliance 200 includes a controller 150, which may include a processor 110 and a memory 120. The controller 150 can be electrically connected to a first valve 51, a second valve 52, a water pump 63, and a washing pump 66 to control the operating status of the first valve 51, the second valve 52, the water pump 63, and the washing pump 66.

[0166] In one implementation, when the computer program is executed by the processor 110, the control method includes:

[0167] 01, The cleaning component 80 is controlled to deliver a first cleaning medium and / or a second cleaning medium to the nozzle 20 so that the first cleaning medium and / or the second cleaning medium are sprayed into the cooking chamber 100, wherein the first cleaning medium is different from the second cleaning medium.
