[0055] The electric steamer further comprises a first component 20, which is configured to be detachably mounted on the pot body component 10, and at least a portion of the first component 20 is configured to be placed on the pot body component 10 so that the pot body component 10 is configured to be a support structure for the first component 20, and the cooking pot 101 on the pot body component 10 or the shell on the pot body component 10 is used to form a support and limit installation structure for placing the first component 20 and forming a support and limit installation structure for the first component 20, so as to realize a structure in which the first component 20 can be detachably placed on the pot body component 10. Specifically, the first component 20 is configured to be A main body 201 is arranged. A part of the bottom end of the main body 201 is placed on the pot body assembly 10, mainly on the cooking pot 101. At least a part of the main body 201 is located above the cooking pot 101. When steam is generated in the cooking pot 101, the steam is sprayed upward through the main body 201 to steam cook the food. In addition, the first assembly 20 is also provided with a first piece 202 for supplying liquid to the cooking cavity 1011 provided on the cooking pot 101. The first piece 202 is mainly used to form the effect of guiding clean water. The liquid storage tank 20 When the first member 202 is installed in place, the clean water in the liquid storage tank 203 can enter the first member 202 and enter the cooking chamber 1011 through the guidance of the first member 202. At least a part of the first member 202 is arranged to be located in the cooking chamber 1011 and is arranged to be a convex structure facing the bottom wall of the cooking chamber 1011. The first member 202 is mainly arranged on the bottom end surface of the main member 201. The first member 202 can be detachably installed on the main member 201, such as by rubbing, clamping or other structural settings, and the first member 202 is arranged to be an inclined structure or a vertical structure. That is, the first piece 202 forms an inclined structure or an upright structure relative to the vertical direction in the cooking chamber 1011. The inclined structure or the upright structure can effectively guide the liquid to enter the cooking pot 101 more smoothly. In the process of replenishing clean water into the cooking pot 101, the gravity of the clean water can be used to automatically replenish and supply it to the cooking pot 101. At the same time, during the replenishment process, the liquid storage tank 203 can better reflux gas to make the water flow more smoothly into the cooking pot 101 without pause, thereby improving the stability and reliability of replenishing water.
[0056] In this embodiment, the main body 201 is also provided with a first steaming rack, and a first placement area 2011 for placing food is provided on the first steaming rack, and a steam hole is provided on the first placement area 2011. The main body 201 can be provided with the first steaming rack as an integrated structure, or the first steaming rack can be provided as a structure placed on the main body 201, and both can be used to achieve steam cooking of food on the first steaming rack through the main body 201 and the first steaming rack when steam is generated in the cooking pot 101. At the same time, the first steaming gear can be set as needed, and the first steaming gear can be placed in the first steaming gear. An annular space area is formed on the steaming rack, and the annular space area is used to place food and steam cooking. A second steaming rack can also be set, and steam holes are set on the second steaming rack. The second steaming rack is placed on the first steaming gear, and a second steaming gear is set on the second steaming rack. The second steaming gear is placed on the second steaming rack to form an annular space area, and the annular space area is used to place food and steam cooking. Of course, a third steaming rack, a third steaming gear, etc. can be set as needed. A lid is set at the top of the cooking pot 101 to achieve the effect of steaming food with the electric steamer.
[0057] Among them, a liquid storage tank 203 located on the main body 201 is also provided on the first component 20. The liquid storage tank 203 is used to hold liquid, that is, clean water. The user can operate the liquid storage tank 203. The liquid storage tank 203 is mainly configured to be detachably installed on the main body 201. The user can add clean water to the liquid storage tank 203. A liquid supply port 2032 is provided on the liquid storage tank 203. When the user removes the liquid storage tank 203, the user can replenish the liquid storage tank 203 with clean water through the liquid supply port 2032. At least a part of the liquid storage tank 203 is located above the cooking pot 101 and above the first piece 202, so that the liquid in the liquid storage tank 203 can be configured to flow into the first piece 202 through the liquid supply port 2032 under the action of gravity and pass through The first piece 202 flows into the bottom wall of the cooking chamber 1011, and a part of the liquid storage tank 203 is arranged above the cooking pot 101 to form a situation where the clean water in the liquid storage tank 203 can flow downward under the action of gravity to enter the cooking chamber 1011. At the same time, the liquid storage tank 203 is arranged above the first piece 202 to form a situation where the clean water in the liquid storage tank 203 can flow downward to enter the first piece 202, and enter the cooking chamber 1011 through the first piece 202 to achieve the effect of automatically replenishing the cooking chamber 1011 with clean water. The liquid storage tank 203, the first piece 202, and the cooking pot 101 as a whole form a clean water flow path from top to bottom, thereby forming a situation where the clean water enters the cooking pot 101 under the action of gravity.
[0058] In this solution, in order to further improve the effect of supplying clean water to the cooking chamber 1011 more smoothly under the action of gravity, when the first piece 202 is set to be in a vertical structure, the first piece 202 is set to be parallel to the flow direction of the liquid flowing through the liquid supply port 2032; that is, when the first piece 202 is in a vertical structure from top to bottom in the cooking chamber 1011, the first piece 202 is parallel to the direction of the liquid flowing through the liquid supply port 2032, mainly because the direction of the liquid flow in the first piece 202 is the vertical direction, and the liquid flows through the liquid supply port 2032. The direction of the liquid supply port 2032 is the vertical direction. The two structures are arranged to be parallel to each other, which can better form the liquid flowing out of the liquid supply port 2032 and entering the first piece 202, so that the liquid flow path is all or mostly a vertical structure, which can significantly improve the smoothness of the liquid flow, and at the same time is conducive to the airflow to enter from the first piece 202 and flow back and forth into the liquid storage tank 203, thereby effectively preventing the problem of negative pressure in the liquid storage tank 203, and improving the smoothness and stability of the automatic replenishment of liquid, i.e., clean water into the cooking chamber 1011 as a whole.
[0059] Alternatively, in the present solution, in order to further improve the effect of supplying clean water to the cooking chamber 1011 more smoothly under the action of gravity, when the first piece 202 is set to be in an inclined structure, the first piece 202 is set to be in an inclined structure relative to the flow direction of the liquid flowing through the liquid supply port 2032 toward the bottom wall of the cooking chamber 1011, and the first piece 202 is set to be in a non-vertical structure relative to the flow direction of the liquid flowing through the liquid supply port 2032, that is, when the first piece 202 is in an inclined structure relative to the vertical direction in the cooking chamber 1011, the flow direction of the liquid in the first piece 202 flows along the inclined direction. By setting the first piece 202 to be in an inclined structure relative to the flow direction of the liquid flowing through the liquid supply port 2032 and It does not constitute a vertical structure to form a guide in an inclined direction. After all, the path of the clean water flow has a right-angle bend structure. The directly bent flow path is not convenient for the clean water to flow. At the same time, the airflow is prone to pause or hover when it flows back from the first piece 202 to the liquid storage tank 203, which in turn leads to negative pressure in the liquid storage tank 203, resulting in the clean water being unable to flow smoothly. Therefore, the setting of the inclined structure can form a guide for the clean water flow. At the same time, the airflow can effectively flow back from the first piece 202 to the liquid storage tank 203, effectively preventing the problem of negative pressure in the liquid storage tank 203, and enhancing the automatic flow of clean water in the liquid storage tank 203 under the action of gravity to form an effect of automatically replenishing clean water.
[0060] In the present solution, except for the structure of the liquid supply port 2032, no air flow port is provided on the liquid storage tank 203, so that the air flow can only enter the liquid storage tank 203 from the liquid supply port 2032. After the air flow enters the liquid storage tank 203, negative pressure can be prevented from being generated in the liquid storage tank 203, and at the same time, the air flow can replenish the spatial area of the clean water flowing out of the liquid storage tank 203, thereby realizing the smooth flow of the clean water out of the liquid supply port 2032. Since there is no air flow port on the liquid storage tank 203, the part of the liquid storage tank 203 except the liquid supply port 2032 constitutes an overall closed structure, which is convenient for users to operate and use the liquid storage tank 203 without the problem of clean water overflowing.
[0061] In the present solution, the liquid supply port 2032 can be configured as an openable and closable structure, a movable opening and closing member is provided on the liquid supply port 2032, a spring is provided on one side of the opening and closing member, and a raised top member is provided on the main body 201. When the liquid storage tank 203 is not installed in place, the spring is used to form a structure that makes the opening and closing member fit the liquid supply port 2032 to realize the closing of the liquid supply port 2032. When the liquid storage tank 203 is installed in place, the top member is used to form a triggering effect on the opening and closing member, and the spring is deformed. The top member triggers the opening and closing member to drive the movement of the opening and closing member to move away from the liquid supply port 2032, thereby opening the liquid supply port 2032 and realizing the opening and closing effect of the liquid supply port 2032.
[0062] In this solution, the structural part of the first piece 202 is provided with a liquid outlet 2022 at one end position of the bottom wall of the first piece 202 close to the cooking chamber 1011. The liquid outlet 2022 can be provided at the end position of the first piece 202. The liquid outlet 2022 is connected to the cooking chamber 1011 and can be used for the flow of clean water from the first piece 202 to the cooking chamber 1011, so as to achieve the effect of supplying clean water to the cooking chamber 1011 through the first piece 202. Specifically, the liquid outlet 2022 is arranged to be located above the bottom wall of the cooking chamber 1011 to form a structure that is not in contact with the bottom wall of the cooking chamber 1011, or ... The liquid port 2022 is arranged to be close to the bottom wall of the cooking chamber 1011 and is not in contact with the bottom wall of the cooking chamber 1011. The liquid outlet 2022 and the bottom wall of the cooking chamber 1011 are not in contact with each other to form a certain height distance between the liquid outlet 2022 and the bottom wall of the cooking chamber 1011 in the vertical direction. The height distance limits the amount of clean water and the water level of the cooking chamber 1011, and at the same time facilitates the clean water to flow out of the liquid outlet 2022 and then enter the cooking chamber 1011, so as to achieve the effect of automatically replenishing the cooking chamber 1011 with clean water through the first piece 202.
[0063] In the present solution, for the structural part that limits the water volume and water level in the cooking chamber 1011, and the structural part that improves the rapid steam discharge in the cooking chamber 1011, the vertical height from the liquid outlet 2022 to the bottom wall of the cooking chamber 1011 is set to H0, and the vertical height H0 is set to be greater than or equal to 1 mm and less than or equal to 5 mm. By limiting the size of the vertical height H0, an upper limit value of the height from the liquid outlet 2022 to the bottom wall of the cooking chamber 1011 is formed, thereby forming the maximum water volume and the maximum water level height in the cooking chamber 1011, thereby limiting the maximum water volume of the clean water in the cooking chamber 1011, and by limiting the vertical height H0, a minimum volume of the cooking chamber 1011 is formed. The height of the accumulation is limited, and further the amount of water and the water level that the volume of the liquid collecting part 1012 can accommodate are limited, so that the amount of water maintained in the cooking chamber 1011 is small and the water level is low, and at the same time the problem of dry burning does not occur, so that the cooking chamber 1011 can be limited to maintain a small amount of water and a low water level, so as to achieve concentrated heat to heat the clean water in the cooking chamber 1011, and achieve the effect of concentrated heating of a small amount of clean water. The cooking chamber 1011 is constructed as a structure that is always in a state of heating a small amount of clean water, so that the clean water in the cooking chamber 1011 can be heated to quickly generate steam to achieve a quick steaming effect on the food.
[0064] In this solution, in order to achieve the centralized heating effect of the clean water and further improve the effect of rapid steam release in the cooking chamber 1011, a liquid collecting portion 1012 with a concave structure facing downward is provided on the bottom wall of the cooking pot 101, and the liquid collecting portion 1012 is configured as a concave structure with an annular structure. The bottom wall of the liquid collecting portion 1012 constitutes a part of the bottom wall of the cooking chamber 1011, mainly that the liquid collecting portion 1012 is located on the bottom wall of the cooking chamber 1011 and has an annular concave structure facing downward. The concave structure of the liquid collecting portion 1012 can be used to contain the clean water, so that the clean water is concentrated in the liquid collecting portion 1012, which can reduce the coverage area of the clean water on the bottom wall of the cooking chamber 1011, forming a clean water concentrated in the liquid collecting portion 1012. The liquid collecting portion 1012 is convenient for centrally heating the clean water in the liquid collecting portion 1012. At the same time, with respect to the position structure of the liquid outlet 2022, the liquid outlet 2022 can be set to be located above the bottom wall of the liquid collecting portion 1012 and to be close to the bottom wall portion of the cooking chamber 1011 except the liquid collecting portion 1012, so as to form a structure in which clean water enters the cooking chamber 1011 through the liquid outlet 2022, and the height position of the liquid outlet 2022 is formed to limit the amount of clean water and the water level in the cooking chamber 1011. The structure in which the liquid outlet 2022 is close to the bottom wall portion of the cooking chamber 1011 except the liquid collecting portion 1012 in the vertical direction makes it possible for the clean water to enter the cooking chamber 1011 through the liquid outlet 2022. The clean water flowing from the outlet 2022 will not directly enter the liquid collecting part 1012, so as to prevent the problem of sudden cold clean water entering when the liquid collecting part 1012 is heated. Instead, the cold clean water first flows to the bottom wall position of the cooking chamber 1011 except the liquid collecting part 1012, and then flows on the bottom wall and further flows into the liquid collecting part 1012 to form an aggregation. In this way, the clean water in the liquid collecting part 1012 can be effectively kept in a continuous boiling state, and the problem of poor boiling effect and poor steaming effect caused by the continuous addition of clean water will not occur. Alternatively, the vertical height from the liquid outlet 2022 to the bottom wall of the liquid collecting part 1012 is set to H and the liquid collecting part 1012 is vertically The vertical height formed upward is H1 and the vertical height H1 is set to be greater than or equal to 1 mm and less than or equal to the vertical height H. By setting the vertical height H from the liquid outlet 2022 to the bottom wall of the liquid collecting part 1012 to be greater than or equal to the vertical height H1 of the liquid collecting part 1012, it is limited that the liquid collecting part 1012 can be in a structure full of clear water, and at the same time, it is limited to maintain a small amount of water in the cooking chamber 1011, so that steam can be generated quickly during heating to achieve a quick steaming effect. By limiting the vertical height H1 to be greater than or equal to 1 mm, the amount of water maintained in the cooking chamber 1011 is small and the water level is low, and at the same time, the problem of dry burning will not occur, thereby improving the effect of rapid steam output and improving the reliability and stability of continuous steam output.
[0065] In this solution, for the structural part that limits the water volume and water level in the cooking chamber 1011, and the structural part that promotes the rapid steam discharge in the cooking chamber 1011, the vertical height H is set to be less than or equal to 6 mm, or the vertical height H1 is set to be less than or equal to 3.5 mm and the vertical height H is set to be less than or equal to 6 mm. By limiting the size of the vertical height H, an upper limit value of the height from the liquid outlet 2022 to the bottom wall of the cooking chamber 1011 is formed, thereby forming the maximum water volume and the maximum water level height in the cooking chamber 1011, thereby limiting the maximum water volume of the clean water in the cooking chamber 1011, and by limiting the vertical height H1, a height control of the volume of the liquid collecting part 1012 is formed. The limit is set, and then the water volume and water level that the volume of the liquid collecting part 1012 can accommodate are limited, and then the maximum water volume of the clean water in the liquid collecting part 1012 is limited. In this way, a smaller amount of water and a lower water level can be maintained in the cooking chamber 1011, so as to concentrate heat to heat the clean water in the cooking chamber 1011 or in the liquid collecting part 1012, and achieve the effect of concentrated heating of a small amount of clean water. The cooking chamber 1011 is constructed as a structure that is always in a state of heating a small amount of clean water, so that the clean water in the cooking chamber 1011 or in the liquid collecting part 1012 can be heated to quickly generate steam to achieve the effect of quick steaming of food.
[0066] In this solution, the structural arrangement of the liquid storage tank 203 and the first member 202 can not only realize the effect of automatically replenishing the steaming chamber 1011 with clean water, but also realize limiting the amount and level of the clean water in the steaming chamber 1011, thereby realizing that the water in the steaming chamber 1011 is kept at the limited amount and level, so as to realize that when the electric steamer is working, the clean water in the steaming chamber 1011 is heated, which is mainly composed of a structure for heating a small amount of clean water, thereby realizing that the clean water in the steaming chamber 1011 can be quickly heated to boil to generate steam, so as to realize the improvement of the steam output efficiency and the quick steaming effect of the electric steamer; specifically, when the liquid level in the steaming chamber 1011 is configured to be a liquid outlet When the first member 2022 is in a non-submerged structure, the liquid can enter the cooking chamber 1011 through the liquid outlet 2022. At this time, the clean water level in the cooking chamber 1011 is lower than the liquid outlet 2022, so that the clean water in the liquid storage tank 203 can continuously flow into the first member 202 under the action of gravity and automatically replenish the clean water into the cooking chamber 1011 through the liquid outlet 2022 on the first member 202, thereby achieving the effect of continuously replenishing clean water. When the liquid level in the cooking chamber 1011 is configured such that the liquid outlet 2022 is in an immersed structure, the liquid in the first member 202 is blocked by the liquid in the cooking chamber 1011 and cannot pass through the liquid outlet 2 022 enters the cooking chamber 1011, at this time, the clean water level in the cooking chamber 1011 will submerge the liquid outlet 2022, and the clean water in the cooking chamber 1011 will form a barrier to the clean water in the liquid outlet 2022 and the first piece 202, that is, a blocking structure for the clean water flowing under the action of gravity is formed, thereby blocking the clean water from continuously being added to the cooking chamber 1011, so that the structure in which the liquid outlet 2022 is immersed forms an effect of limiting the amount and level of the clean water in the cooking chamber 1011, thereby realizing the structure of heating the clean water in the cooking chamber 1011 when the electric steamer is working, which is mainly composed of a structure for heating a small amount of clean water, thereby realizing the ability to quickly heat the clean water in the cooking chamber 1011. The clean water is heated to boil to generate steam so as to improve the efficiency of steam output; of course, it is understandable that when the clean water in the cooking chamber 1011 is continuously heated, the water level will gradually decrease, and in the process of water volume reduction and water level gradually decreasing, clean water will be formed to replenish the cooking chamber 1011 in time, so as to achieve the effect of automatically replenishing the cooking chamber 1011 with clean water in real time, so that the liquid outlet 2022 of the first piece 202 is continuously immersed in clean water, so as to achieve the water volume and water level in the cooking chamber 1011 to be maintained at a specified water volume and a specified water level, thereby preventing the dry burning problem caused by lack of water in the cooking chamber 1011.
[0067] In this solution, in order to further improve the effect of concentrating the clean water in the steaming chamber 1011 and improve the rapid steaming effect of the electric steamer to quickly generate steam, the specific structural parts can have the following structural modes:
[0068] The liquid outlet 2022 may be arranged to be located outside the projection area formed by projecting the liquid collecting portion 1012 upward in the vertical direction, and at least a portion of the bottom wall of the cooking pot 101 other than the liquid collecting portion 1012 may be arranged to be an inclined structure with a height gradually decreasing toward the liquid collecting portion 1012. At this time, although the liquid flowing out of the liquid outlet 2022 does not directly flow to the bottom wall of the liquid collecting portion 1012, the setting of the inclined structure enables the clean water flowing out of the liquid outlet 2022 to form a continuous flow on the bottom wall of the cooking pot 101 other than the liquid collecting portion 1012 and to be quickly guided by the cleaning structure to flow toward the liquid collecting portion 1012, thereby achieving the effect of the clean water quickly flowing into the liquid collecting portion 1012 for concentration under the guidance of the inclined structure. Under the structure in which the clean water is concentrated in the liquid collecting portion 1012, the clean water can be effectively heated in a centralized manner, thereby achieving the effect of quickly generating steam.
[0069] Among them, the inclined structure is mainly the bottom wall of the cooking pot 101 except the liquid collecting part 1012, which is formed into a circular inclined structure toward the liquid collecting part 1012, so as to form a guiding effect for clean water in any direction in the circular direction, so as to guide the clean water to flow into the liquid collecting part 1012 in a timely and effective manner.
[0070] Alternatively, the liquid outlet 2022 may be arranged to be located within the projection area formed by projecting the liquid collecting portion 1012 upward in the vertical direction so that the liquid flowing through the liquid outlet 2022 directly enters the liquid collecting portion 1012. At this time, the clean water flowing out of the liquid outlet 2022 can flow downward and directly enter the liquid collecting portion 1012, and will not flow to the bottom wall of the cooking pot 101 other than the liquid collecting portion 1012 first, thereby directly and concentratedly heating the clean water in the liquid collecting portion 1012. At this time, the clean water can be effectively and concentratedly heated, thereby achieving the effect of quickly generating steam.
[0071] Alternatively, the area formed by the bottom wall of the liquid collecting portion 1012 may be smaller than the area formed by the bottom wall portion of the cooking chamber 1011 excluding the liquid collecting portion 1012. Under the limited structure of the area for accommodating clean water in the liquid collecting portion 1012, a relatively small amount of clean water may be gathered in the liquid collecting portion 1012, thereby directly and centrally heating the clean water in the liquid collecting portion 1012. In this case, the clean water may be effectively and centrally heated, thereby achieving the effect of quickly generating steam.
[0072] The structural part of the pot body assembly 10 of the present scheme includes an outer shell, which wraps the cooking pot 101 on the inner side. The pot body assembly 10 is also provided with a heating element, and the heating element is located below the outer surface of the bottom wall of the cooking pot 101 to heat the cooking pot 101. The heating element can be set to a heating plate, a heating tube or other structures, and can be set to install the heating element on the outer surface of the bottom wall of the cooking pot 101, or can be set to achieve a heating effect by being in contact with the heating element when the cooking pot 101 is placed in place.
[0073] In this solution, in order to further improve the rapid steaming effect of the electric steamer to quickly generate steam, the specific structural parts can have the following structural modes:
[0074] The first structural mode is to arrange the heating element in the projection area formed by projecting the liquid collecting portion 1012 in the vertical direction toward directly downward, that is, the heating element is located directly below the liquid collecting portion 1012 to heat the liquid collecting portion 1012, so that the heat generated by the heating element can directly act on the outer surface of the bottom wall corresponding to the liquid collecting portion 1012 to form a heating effect on the liquid collecting portion 1012, thereby realizing the heating element concentrating heat to heat the liquid in the liquid collecting portion 1012, achieving the effect of concentrated heating of a small amount of clean water, and thereby realizing that the clean water in the liquid collecting portion 1012 can quickly generate steam under the heating of the heating element, thereby achieving the effect of quick steaming of the food.
[0075] The second structural method is to arrange at least a part of the projection area formed by projecting the heating element in the vertical direction toward the upper side to be located in the liquid collecting portion 1012, mainly that at least a part of the heating element is located directly below the liquid collecting portion 1012, so that the heat generated by the heating element can be partially concentrated on the outer surface of the bottom wall corresponding to the liquid collecting portion 1012 to form a heating effect on the liquid collecting portion 1012, and then the heating element concentrates the heat to heat the liquid in the liquid collecting portion 1012, and achieves the effect of concentrated heating of a small amount of clean water, and then the clean water in the liquid collecting portion 1012 can quickly generate steam under the heating of the heating element, thereby achieving the effect of quick steaming of the food.
[0076] The third structural mode is to arrange the liquid collecting portion 1012 to form a liquid holding capacity greater than or equal to 10 ml and less than or equal to 100 ml, that is, the recessed structure formed by the liquid collecting portion 1012 can hold clean water with a capacity greater than or equal to 10 ml and less than or equal to 100 ml, thereby limiting the amount of clean water that can be held in the liquid collecting portion 1012. At this time, during the heating process by the heating element, the effect of heating a smaller amount of water is formed, thereby achieving the effect of the heating element concentrating heat to heat a smaller amount of clean water, thereby achieving the effect of centralized heating of the clean water in the liquid collecting portion 1012. At this time, the heating element can be arranged in a projection area formed by projecting the liquid collecting portion 1012 in the vertical direction toward directly downward, thereby achieving the effect of the heating element concentrating heat to heat the liquid collecting portion 1012, thereby achieving the clean water in the liquid collecting portion 1012 to quickly generate steam under the heating of the heating element, thereby achieving the effect of quick steaming of the food.
[0077] In this solution, the liquid storage tank 203 has a liquid storage cavity 2031 disposed on the liquid storage tank 203. The liquid storage cavity 2031 is used to hold liquid, that is, clean water. The liquid supply port 2032 and the liquid storage cavity 2031 can be configured as a connected structure. The liquid supply port 2032 is mainly disposed at the lower position of the liquid storage cavity 2031 to achieve the clean water in the liquid storage cavity 2031 flowing downward to the position of the liquid supply port 2032, and the liquid supply port 2032 is disposed at the bottom wall of the first member 202 away from the cooking cavity 1011. The liquid inlet 2021 provided at one end position can be constituted as a connected structure, and the liquid supply port 2032 forms a structure connected with the liquid inlet 2021 to realize that the clean water flows out from the liquid supply port 2032 position and flows into the upper end position of the first piece 202, that is, the liquid inlet 2021 position, so as to realize that the clean water continues to flow in the first piece 202 under the action of gravity and flows to the liquid outlet 2022 position, and the liquid supply port 2032 is set to be able to form a structure connected with the liquid outlet 2022 through the liquid inlet 2021. The structure is interconnected, so that the clean water in the liquid storage chamber 2031 can enter the cooking chamber 1011 through the liquid supply port 2032, the liquid inlet 2021 and the liquid outlet 2022 on the first member 202, so as to achieve the effect of automatically replenishing the clean water under the action of gravity. At the same time, the liquid supply port 2032 is arranged above the liquid inlet 2021 and the liquid supply port 2032 is arranged above the top end surface of the cooking pot 101, so that the liquid in the liquid storage chamber 2031 can be discharged from the liquid supply port 2032 under the action of gravity. The liquid flows into the liquid inlet 2021, and the liquid supply port 2032 is set to be located above the top end surface of the cooking pot 101 to form a better flow under the action of gravity. At the same time, it can prevent the residual clean water in the liquid storage cavity 2031 from entering the liquid supply port 2032, so that the clean water in the liquid storage cavity 2031 can flow downward through the liquid supply port 2032 into the first piece 202 and flow into the cooking cavity 1011 through the first piece 202, thereby achieving the effect of automatically replenishing clean water under the action of gravity.
[0078] In order to further improve the flow of clean water from the liquid storage chamber 2031 to the liquid inlet 2021 on the first piece 202 more smoothly under the action of gravity, in this solution, at least a portion of the liquid storage chamber 2031 is arranged to be located in the projection area formed by projecting the cooking chamber 1011 in the vertical direction directly upward, so that a portion of the liquid storage chamber 2031 is located directly above the cooking chamber 1011, so that the liquid in the liquid storage chamber 2031 can quickly enter the liquid inlet 2021 position in a shorter distance under the action of gravity, and the liquid inlet 2021 on the first piece 202 is arranged to be located in the liquid storage chamber 2031 and enter the cooking chamber 1011 in the vertical direction. In the projection area of the line projection, the distance between the liquid storage chamber 2031 and the first piece 202 in the horizontal direction is shortened, and the length of the flow channel path through which the clean water is supplied is shortened, so that the liquid in the liquid storage chamber 2031 can flow into the liquid inlet 2021 under the action of gravity. The position of the liquid storage chamber 2031, the liquid inlet 2021 and the cooking chamber 1011 is limited to effectively shorten the length of the path through which the clean water flows, and at the same time, the gravity of the clean water is effectively utilized to replenish the clean water, effectively achieving the effect of improving the supply of the clean water to the cooking chamber 1011 more smoothly under the action of gravity, thereby preventing the clean water from pausing during the flow.
[0079] In the present solution, in order to further improve the effect of supplying clean water more smoothly into the cooking chamber 1011 under the action of gravity, a liquid supply port 2032 is arranged in a projection area formed by projecting the cooking chamber 1011 upward in the vertical direction, so as to shorten the distance between the liquid supply port 2032 and the first member 202 in the horizontal direction, and shorten the length of the flow channel path for the clean water to be supplied. In the present solution, a liquid connecting portion 2012 is also arranged on the main member 201, and the liquid connecting portion 2012 is arranged to be connected with the liquid supply port 2032 and the liquid inlet 2021 respectively. Clean water can enter the liquid connecting portion 2012 through the liquid supply port 2032, and flow from the liquid connecting portion 2012 into the liquid inlet 2021, so as to realize the transfer effect of the liquid connecting portion 2012 on the clean water. At the same time, the liquid connecting portion 2012 is arranged to be located below the liquid supply port 2032 and above the liquid inlet 2021 in the vertical direction to form a vertical connection between the clean water and the liquid supply port 2032. The liquid inlet 2021 is located in the projection area formed by projecting the liquid connecting portion 2012 in the vertical direction directly upward, so that the clean water can enter the liquid connecting portion 2012 within a shorter distance after passing through the liquid supply port 2032, and the liquid inlet 2021 is located in the projection area formed by projecting the liquid connecting portion 2012 in the vertical direction directly downward, so that the clean water can enter the liquid connecting portion 2012 within a shorter distance after gathering in the liquid connecting portion 2012, thereby effectively shortening the path length of the clean water flow, and effectively utilizing the gravity of the clean water to replenish the clean water, effectively realizing the effect of promoting the clean water to be more smoothly supplied to the cooking chamber 1011 under the action of gravity, and preventing the clean water from pausing during the flow.
[0080] Among them, the upper part of the liquid connecting part 2012 is mainly connected with the liquid supply port 2032, and the side or bottom of the liquid connecting part 2012 is connected with the liquid inlet 2021, so that the clean water can smoothly enter the liquid connecting part 2012 from the liquid supply port 2032, and a convergence effect will be formed in the liquid connecting part 2012. The clean water converges in the liquid connecting part 2012 and then flows to the liquid inlet 2021 to be supplied to the first piece 202, and finally enters the cooking chamber 1011 through the first piece 202, so as to realize the effect of automatically supplying the clean water in the liquid storage tank 203 to the cooking chamber 1011 under the action of gravity.
[0081] The connecting portion 2012 is configured to be an annular structure. The connecting portion 2012 with an annular structure can improve the smoothness of the flow of liquid, i.e., clean water, in the connecting portion 2012. The connecting portion 2012 is mainly configured to be an annular concave cavity with a concave structure. The diameter of the connecting portion 2012 is configured to be greater than or equal to the diameter of the liquid supply port 2032 to form an effect that clean water can effectively converge when entering the connecting portion 2012 through the liquid supply port 2032, so that clean water converges in the connecting portion 2012 to form a certain amount of clean water, and the diameter of the liquid inlet 2021 is configured to be smaller than the diameter of the liquid supply port 2032, so that clean water converges in the connecting portion 2012 to form a certain amount of clean water before flowing through the liquid inlet 2021 toward the first piece 202, and at the same time, it is configured so that liquid can flow from the liquid storage cavity 2031 through the liquid supply port 2032. The liquid port 2032 enters the liquid connecting portion 2012 for convergence, and is configured such that the liquid converges in the liquid connecting portion 2012 and then flows into the liquid inlet 2021. After the clean water converges in the liquid connecting portion 2012, it can effectively improve the smoothness of the clean water flowing to the liquid inlet 2021 under the action of gravity, and at the same time, it can improve the timeliness and smoothness of part of the airflow entering the first piece 202 from the liquid outlet 2022 and entering the liquid connecting portion 2012 and the liquid supply port 2032 into the liquid storage chamber 2031 during the process of automatically replenishing and supplying clean water, thereby effectively preventing the situation of negative pressure in the liquid storage chamber 2031, and effectively preventing the problem of negative pressure in the liquid storage chamber 2031 due to the inability of the airflow to flow back to the liquid storage chamber 2031 in time during the flow of clean water. The effect of improving the smoothness of the clean water in the liquid storage chamber 2031 being automatically supplied to the cooking chamber 1011 is achieved.
[0082] In this solution, in order to further improve the effect of supplying clean water to the cooking chamber 1011 more smoothly under the action of gravity, the lowest liquid level position of the liquid storage chamber 2031 is set above the top end surface of the cooking pot 101 and the liquid supply port 2032 is set below the lowest liquid level position of the liquid storage chamber 2031, so as to form a structure in which liquid can flow from the liquid storage chamber 2031 to the liquid supply port 2032 under the action of gravity; the lowest liquid level position of the liquid storage chamber 2031 is set above the top end surface of the cooking pot 101 to ensure that the clean water in the liquid storage chamber 2031 is always above the liquid level of the cooking pot 101. The position of the top end surface of the cooking pot 101 can better form an effect in which the clean water is at a high position to flow naturally downward. At the same time, the liquid supply port 2032 is set at the lowest liquid level position of the liquid storage chamber 2031 or below the lowest liquid level position to form an effect in which the clean water in the liquid storage chamber 2031 is at a high position to flow downward through the liquid supply port 2032, forming an effect of automatically replenishing clean water under the action of gravity, achieving an effective effect of lifting the clean water for smooth supply, and preventing the problem of residual clean water in the liquid storage chamber 2031.
[0083] Alternatively, in this solution, the first piece 202 is configured to be detachably mounted on the main body 201, and a sleeve mounting structure or a snap-on mounting structure can be provided to realize forming the first piece 202 into a detachable mounting structure, so as to facilitate the user to install or remove the first piece 202. When the first piece 202 is removed, a stable placement structure can be formed when the user places the main body 201 on the table, and at the same time, it is convenient for the user to perform maintenance, cleaning or replacement of the first piece 202.
[0084] Alternatively, in the present embodiment, the first piece 202 is configured to be rotatably and swingably mounted on the main body 201, so that the first piece 202 can be configured to be a structure that protrudes downward relative to the main body 201 or can be configured to be a structure that folds back toward the side relative to the main body 201; the first piece 202 can be mounted on the main body 201 by means of an installation shaft, and the first piece 202 can be rotated and swung relative to the main body 201 by means of the installation shaft. When the first piece 202 is in a structure that protrudes downward relative to the main body 201, the first piece 202 is located in the cooking chamber 1011 and can be used to automatically supply clean water to the cooking chamber 1011. When the first piece 202 is in a structure that folds back toward the side relative to the main body 201, the first piece 202 is configured to be a folded storage structure relative to the main body 201, thereby facilitating the user to place the main body 201 on the countertop to form a stable placement structure.
[0085] Alternatively, in the present solution, the first piece 202 may be configured to be a soft and deformable structure, and the first piece 202 may be configured to be made of a silicone material. The soft and deformable structure enables the first piece 202 to have a longer service life when heated in the cooking chamber 1011, and may be deformed to a certain extent during heating so as to have better reliability in use. At the same time, the first piece 202 has a soft and deformable structure, which makes it convenient for users to place the first component 20. When the first component 20 is placed on the countertop, the first piece 202 may be deformed so that the first component 20 can be placed more stably on the countertop, thereby improving the user's use of the first component 20.
[0086] In summary, the electric steamer of the present embodiment can realize the steaming function when the first component 20 on the electric steamer is installed in place. At this time, the steaming pot 101 can only be placed with water to generate steam, or water and food materials can be placed to form a boiling function and realize the steaming function of generating steam; when the first component 20 is not installed in place, the electric steamer can only realize the boiling function. At this time, the steaming pot 101 can be used to place water and food materials for boiling; so that the electric steamer has a multifunctional use effect.
[0087] Working principle: The electric steamer of the present invention mainly comprises a pot body assembly 10 and a first assembly 20. The detachable mounting structure of the first assembly 20 can realize that when the first assembly 20 is installed in place, water can be automatically supplied to the cooking pot 101, and the liquid level of the liquid in the cooking pot 101, that is, the water level, is maintained at a certain height, and the effect of rapid steam output is achieved within the water level height range; when the first assembly 20 is not installed in place, the cooking pot 101 can be filled with water and food materials according to the needs of the user to achieve the functions of boiling and stewing; the multifunctional use effect of the electric steamer can be achieved. At the same time, the electric steamer of the present invention realizes the function of automatically replenishing water, and the water level in the cooking pot 101 is maintained within a relatively small height range to prevent dry burning and achieve the effect of rapid steam output, thereby effectively improving the steam cooking effect of the food materials. At the same time, the structural part of the first assembly 20 can effectively realize the smooth supply of liquid, that is, water, and prevent the problem of unsmooth water supply, thereby improving the effect of timely and effective supply of clean water to the cooking pot 101.
[0088] Those skilled in the art will appreciate that the above-mentioned embodiments are specific examples for realizing the present invention, and in actual applications, various changes may be made in form and detail without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention, all of which are within the protection scope of the present invention.
