Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of cooking utensils, in particular to a pot assembly and a cooking utensil. Background Art

[0002] Currently, cooking utensils need to be vented during the cooking process. However, when venting, the boiling point of the food in the cooking chamber will decrease as the pressure decreases, which will cause the food to boil violently. There is a risk that the violently boiling food will overflow from the cooking utensils through the exhaust component.

[0003] In the related art, in order to reduce the risk of food overflowing from the cooking appliance, an anti-overflow component is provided on the cover assembly, and the steam in the cooking cavity needs to pass through the anti-overflow component before being discharged from the cooking appliance through the exhaust component. However, since the anti-overflow component is provided on the cover assembly, it is difficult to remove the anti-overflow component, which in turn increases the difficulty of cleaning the anti-overflow component. Utility Model Content

[0004] The utility model aims to solve at least one of the technical problems existing in the prior art or related technology.

[0005] To this end, a first aspect of the utility model provides a pot assembly.

[0006] A second aspect of the present invention provides a cooking utensil.

[0007] In view of this, the first aspect of the utility model provides a pot assembly, including an inner pot and an anti-overflow component; the inner pot includes a first body and a positioning portion, the first body is provided with a cooking cavity, and the positioning portion is connected to the first body; the anti-overflow component is arranged in the cooking cavity and connected to the positioning portion, the anti-overflow component has a cavity and a first through hole, and the cavity is connected to the cooking cavity through the first through hole.

[0008] The pot assembly provided in the present application includes an inner pot, the inner pot includes a first body, the first body is provided with a cooking cavity, and food can be placed in the cooking cavity to achieve cooking of the food.

[0009] When the cooking appliance is working, the temperature in the cooking cavity rises. Since the cover assembly of the cooking appliance seals the cooking cavity through the cover plate, the pressure in the cooking cavity rises during the operation of the cooking appliance, and the internal gas pressure of the cooking appliance is greater than the external gas pressure. When the cooking appliance is venting, the gas pressure in the cooking cavity drops in a short time. Since the temperature of the food in the cooking cavity drops slowly and the boiling point of the liquid decreases, the liquid food will boil in a short time. The boiling liquid food can enter the anti-overflow component through the first through hole. The bubbles in the liquid food can be broken in the first through hole, thereby achieving anti-overflow treatment for the cooking appliance and reducing the probability of food bubbles overflowing from the cooking cavity with the gas. Since the anti-overflow component can reduce the probability of food in the cooking cavity overflowing from the cooking appliance, the allowable range of the heating power of the cooking appliance can be increased by setting the anti-overflow component, while extending the continuous exhaust time of the cooking appliance to improve the cooking effect of the food.

[0010] The inner pot includes a positioning portion, which is connected to the first body, and the anti-overflow component is arranged in the cooking cavity and connected to the positioning portion, and then the anti-overflow component is installed and positioned by the positioning portion. Since the anti-overflow component is arranged in the cooking cavity and the anti-overflow component is installed and positioned by the positioning portion, after cooking is completed, the user can take out the anti-overflow component after opening the cover assembly, which reduces the difficulty of installing and disassembling the anti-overflow component, and further reduces the difficulty of cleaning the anti-overflow component.

[0011] The anti-overflow component is arranged in the cooking cavity, so that the state inside the anti-overflow component can be observed after opening the cover assembly, thereby facilitating the user to observe the residual liquid food in the anti-overflow component, allowing the user to clean the anti-overflow component more timely and reducing the probability of bacteria breeding inside the anti-overflow component due to residual food.

[0012] The anti-overflow component is arranged in the cooking cavity. When the lid of the cooking utensil is opened, the anti-overflow component will not tilt as the lid assembly is opened, so that the liquid food in the anti-overflow component will not spill to the outside of the cooking utensil as the lid assembly is opened, thereby reducing the pollution of the surrounding environment during the cooking process of the cooking utensil.

[0013] Specifically, the first through hole may be a circular hole, a triangular hole or a polygonal hole, or a through hole of any shape.

[0014] In addition, the pot assembly in the above technical solution provided by the utility model may also have the following additional technical features:

[0015] In some technical solutions of the present utility model, optionally, the positioning portion is a first protrusion protruding from the inner wall of the first body toward the inside of the cooking cavity; and the anti-overflow component is mounted on the first protrusion.

[0016] In this technical solution, the positioning portion is a first protrusion protruding from the inner wall of the first body toward the inside of the cooking cavity, and the anti-overflow component is placed on the first protrusion, and then the anti-overflow component is supported by the first protrusion. When using the cooking utensil, the user can install the anti-overflow component by placing the food in the cooking cavity and then placing the anti-overflow component on the first protrusion, which further reduces the difficulty of installing the anti-overflow component; after cooking is completed, the user can open the cover assembly to take out the anti-overflow component, which further reduces the difficulty of disassembling the anti-overflow component.

[0017] Furthermore, the first protrusion and the first body may be an integrated structure, that is, the protrusion protruding into the cooking cavity is stamped or spun on the side wall of the first body.

[0018] The first protrusion and the first body may also be two separate components, and the first protrusion is fixed to the inner wall of the first body by welding or riveting.

[0019] In some technical solutions of the present utility model, optionally, the positioning portion is a first groove recessed toward the outside of the first body; at least a portion of the anti-overflow component is embedded in the first groove.

[0020] In this technical solution, the positioning portion is a first groove recessed toward the outside of the first body, and at least a portion of the anti-overflow component is embedded in the first groove. While realizing the installation and support of the anti-overflow component, the first groove can position the anti-overflow component in the upper and lower directions, thereby preventing the anti-overflow component from being lifted up by boiling ingredients, thereby improving the stability of the anti-overflow component during the cooking process, and further improving the anti-overflow effect of the anti-overflow component.

[0021] Furthermore, the first groove and the first body may be an integrated structure, that is, a groove recessed toward the outside of the cooking cavity is punched or spun out on the side wall of the first body.

[0022] In some technical solutions of the present invention, optionally, the positioning parts are continuously distributed along the periphery of the overflow prevention component; or there are multiple positioning parts, and the multiple positioning parts are arranged at intervals along the periphery of the overflow prevention component.

[0023] In this technical solution, the positioning parts are continuously distributed along the periphery of the overflow prevention component, so that the positioning parts support the overflow prevention component more stably. There are multiple positioning parts, and the multiple positioning parts are arranged at intervals along the periphery of the overflow prevention component. The strength of the side wall of the first body can be strengthened by the positioning parts, and the probability of the first side wall being deformed due to the high pressure in the cooking cavity can be reduced. Therefore, the thickness of the side wall of the first body can be reduced while ensuring the strength of the first body, thereby reducing the material cost of the first body.

[0024] Furthermore, the positioning portion is a first protrusion, and the first protrusion may be distributed continuously along the circumference of the first body, or the first protrusion may be distributed intermittently along the circumference of the first body.

[0025] The first protrusions may also be a plurality of protrusions on the inner wall of the first body.

[0026] Furthermore, the positioning portion is a first groove, and the first groove may be continuously distributed along the circumference of the first body, or the first groove may be discontinuously distributed along the circumference of the first body.

[0027] The first groove may be a groove sunken downward along the inner wall of the first body, thereby forming a step on the inner wall of the first body, and the overflow prevention component is mounted on the step of the inner wall of the first body.

[0028] The first grooves may also be a plurality of concave points on the inner wall of the first body.

[0029] The first groove may also be a recessed area formed by two upper and lower protrusions arranged in parallel.

[0030] In some technical schemes of the utility model, optionally, the anti-overflow component includes a second body and a partition; the second body has a cavity and a first through hole; the partition is arranged in the cavity and connected to the second body, and the partition divides the cavity into at least two anti-overflow cavities, and the at least two anti-overflow cavities include a first anti-overflow cavity and a second anti-overflow cavity, and the cooking cavity can be connected to the first anti-overflow cavity through the first through hole, and the first anti-overflow cavity is connected to the second anti-overflow cavity.

[0031] In this technical solution, the anti-overflow component includes a second body, which is connected to the cover plate. The second body has a cavity and a first through hole. The cavity can be connected to the cooking cavity through the first through hole. When the cooking appliance is working, the gas in the cooking cavity enters the cavity through the first through hole under the action of pressure, and the cavity is connected to the exhaust component of the cooking appliance. The gas entering the cavity is then conducted by the exhaust component connected to the cavity, thereby realizing the discharge of the gas in the cooking appliance, adjusting the air pressure, and improving the cooking effect. At the same time, the second body can also destroy the bubbles formed by liquid food, so that the food can be deposited in the cooking cavity and the second body, and the bubbles of the food are broken to avoid food overflow, thereby improving the anti-overflow effect of the cooking appliance.

[0032] The overflow prevention component also includes a partition, which divides the cavity into at least two overflow prevention cavities, and the at least two overflow prevention cavities include a first overflow prevention cavity and a second overflow prevention cavity. The cooking cavity can be connected to the first overflow prevention cavity through a first through hole, and the first overflow prevention cavity is connected to the second overflow prevention cavity. The second overflow prevention cavity is opposite to the exhaust component. When the cooking utensil is exhausted through the exhaust component, the high-temperature and high-pressure gas in the cooking cavity can enter the first overflow prevention cavity through the first through hole, and then enter the second overflow prevention cavity from the first overflow prevention cavity. The second overflow prevention cavity is opposite to the exhaust component, and then the high-temperature and high-pressure gas in the second overflow prevention cavity is discharged from the cooking utensil through the exhaust component, thereby achieving exhaust of the cooking utensil. Since the high-temperature and high-pressure steam needs to pass through the first cooking cavity and the second cooking cavity in turn during the exhaust process of the cooking utensil, the path of the steam flowing inside the overflow prevention component is extended, further improving the overflow prevention effect of the overflow prevention component.

[0033] Furthermore, there are multiple first through holes, and at least one of the multiple first through holes is located at the lowest point of the bottom wall of the first anti-overflow cavity, so that the liquid food in the first anti-overflow cavity can flow back to the cooking cavity through the first through hole arranged at the lowest point of the bottom wall during the exhaust interval.

[0034] In some technical solutions of the present utility model, optionally, a second through hole is provided on the partition, and the first anti-overflow cavity is connected with the second anti-overflow cavity through the second through hole.

[0035] In this technical solution, a second through hole is provided on the partition, and the first anti-overflow cavity is connected with the second anti-overflow cavity through the second through hole. The high-temperature and high-pressure gas in the cavity can enter the second cavity through the second through hole, and then the bubbles carried by the high-temperature and high-pressure gas can be broken through the second through hole, thereby improving the smoothness of exhaust and the anti-overflow effect of the anti-overflow component.

[0036] In some technical solutions of the present utility model, optionally, the second body has a third through hole, and the second anti-overflow cavity can be connected with the cooking cavity through the third through hole.

[0037] In this technical solution, the first body has a third through hole, and the second anti-overflow cavity can be connected to the cooking cavity through the third through hole, so that during the exhaust interval, the liquid food remaining in the second anti-overflow cavity can flow back into the cooking cavity through the third through hole, reducing the liquid food remaining in the second anti-overflow cavity, thereby reducing the waste of food. In addition, the liquid food remaining in the second anti-overflow cavity flows back into the cooking cavity through the third through hole, reducing the liquid food remaining in the second anti-overflow cavity, and reducing the difficulty of cleaning the anti-overflow cavity.

[0038] Furthermore, the bottom wall of the first body includes a first area and a second area, and the distance between the first area and the cover plate is greater than the distance between the second area and the cover plate; the bottom wall of the first body is provided with a third through hole, and the third through hole is located in the first area. By providing two first bodies with height difference areas, the food on the first body can be diverted. When the food accumulates on the surface of the first body, the food in the second area will flow into the first area under the action of its own gravity, and then the liquid food can be refluxed through the third through hole provided on the first area, so as to avoid the overflowing food from accumulating in the first anti-overflow cavity after being blocked. While avoiding the accumulation of food, the air flow can be improved, the air conduction rate can be accelerated, the cooking effect of the food can be improved, the food can be saved, and the difficulty of cleaning the cooking utensils can be reduced.

[0039] Furthermore, the third through hole is arranged at the lowest point of the bottom wall of the first body.

[0040] Furthermore, the cover assembly further includes a one-way valve, which is disposed on the third through hole, and the liquid food in the second anti-overflow cavity can enter the cooking cavity through the one-way valve. The one-way valve can ensure smooth conduction from the second anti-overflow cavity to the cooking cavity, while blocking the liquid food in the cooking cavity from entering the second anti-overflow cavity, thereby ensuring smooth reflux of the blocked food in the first anti-overflow cavity, and preventing the liquid food in the cooking cavity from entering the anti-overflow cavity through the third through hole under the action of rising gas and pressure, thereby improving the anti-overflow effect.

[0041] In some technical solutions of the present utility model, optionally, a cross-sectional area of ​​the first through hole in the first direction is greater than or equal to 0.5 square millimeters and less than or equal to 50 square millimeters.

[0042] In this technical solution, the cross-sectional area of ​​the first through hole is greater than or equal to 0.5 square millimeters and less than or equal to 50 square millimeters, so that the first through hole can break the bubbles passing through the first through hole, so that the liquid food can fall back into the cooking cavity under the action of gravity, and the high-temperature and high-pressure gas can enter the cavity through the first through hole, and then be discharged from the cooking utensil through the exhaust component, thereby reducing the speed of the liquid food overflowing the first through hole, improving the anti-overflow effect of the anti-overflow component, and improving the smoothness of the exhaust of the exhaust component. In addition, the cross-sectional area of ​​the first through hole is greater than or equal to 0.5 square millimeters and less than or equal to 50 square millimeters, which slows down the liquid outflow speed and improves the bubble breaking effect of the anti-overflow component. The cross-sectional area of ​​the first through hole is greater than or equal to 0.5 square millimeters and less than or equal to 50 square millimeters, which can also reduce the process difficulty of punching the first through hole, thereby reducing the processing cost of the anti-overflow component.

[0043] Further, a cross-sectional area of ​​the first through hole in the first direction is greater than or equal to 10 square millimeters and less than or equal to 20 square millimeters.

[0044] Further, the cross-sectional area of ​​the first through hole may be 0.5 mm.

[0045] The cross-sectional area of ​​the first through hole may also be 1 mm.

[0046] The cross-sectional area of ​​the first through hole may also be 5 mm, 10 mm, 15 mm, 25 mm or 35 mm.

[0047] The cross-sectional area of ​​the first through hole may also be 50 mm.

[0048] Specifically, the flow direction of the liquid food when passing through the first through hole is the second direction, and the first direction is perpendicular to the second direction.

[0049] In some technical solutions of the present invention, optionally, there are multiple first through holes, and the multiple first through holes are arranged in parallel; the ratio of the sum of the cross-sectional areas of the multiple first through holes in the first direction to the surface area of ​​the overflow prevention component is greater than or equal to 0.01% and less than or equal to 10%.

[0050] In this technical solution, there are multiple first through holes, which are arranged in parallel. The ratio of the sum of the cross-sectional areas of the multiple first through holes in the first direction to the surface area of ​​the first body is greater than or equal to 0.01% and less than or equal to 10%. While ensuring the bubble breaking effect of the first through holes, the overall flow area of ​​the first through holes is increased, and while slowing down the speed at which liquid food overflows from the first through holes, the efficiency of high-temperature and high-pressure gas passing through the first through holes is improved, thereby improving the smoothness of exhaust of the cooking appliance.

[0051] Further, a ratio of a sum of cross-sectional areas of the plurality of first through holes in the first direction to a surface area of ​​the first body may be 0.01%.

[0052] The ratio of the sum of the cross-sectional areas of the plurality of first through holes in the first direction to the surface area of ​​the first body may also be 0.1%.

[0053] The ratio of the sum of the cross-sectional areas of the plurality of first through holes in the first direction to the surface area of ​​the first body may also be 1%, 2%, 3%, 5%, 7% and 8%.

[0054] The ratio of the sum of the cross-sectional areas of the plurality of first through holes in the first direction to the surface area of ​​the first body may also be 10%.

[0055] A second aspect of the utility model provides a cooking utensil, comprising a pot assembly as in any of the above technical solutions.

[0056] The present application provides a cooking utensil, comprising a pot assembly as in any of the above technical solutions, and thus the cooking utensil has all the beneficial effects of the pot assembly in any of the above technical solutions.

[0057] Specifically, the cooking appliance may be an electric pressure cooker, a micro-pressure rice cooker, and a thick soup pot.

[0058] In some technical solutions of the present invention, optionally, the cooking appliance further includes a cover assembly, which is connected to the pot assembly and is disposed on the cooking cavity, and the cover assembly includes a cover plate; the opening of the cavity faces the cover plate.

[0059] In this technical solution, the cover assembly can be covered on the cooking cavity of the cooking utensil, and then the cooking cavity is sealed by the cover assembly. When the cover assembly seals the cooking cavity, the cooking cavity of the cooking utensil can be pressurized.

[0060] In some technical solutions of the present invention, optionally, there is a gap between the cover plate and the partition of the overflow prevention component; the first overflow prevention cavity of the overflow prevention component is connected with the second overflow prevention cavity of the overflow prevention component through the gap.

[0061] In this technical solution, there is a gap between the partition and the cover plate, and the first anti-overflow chamber is connected with the second anti-overflow chamber through the gap. The high-temperature and high-pressure gas in the first anti-overflow chamber can enter the second anti-overflow chamber through the gap, and then the bubbles carried by the high-temperature and high-pressure gas can be broken through the gap between the partition and the cover plate, thereby improving the exhaust smoothness and the anti-overflow effect of the anti-overflow component.

[0062] Specifically, when the cooking appliance is venting, the food in the cooking cavity boils due to the venting, and a large number of bubbles are generated in the liquid in the cooking cavity, forming a gas-liquid coexistence state, which expands and flows toward the overflow prevention component. After the bubbles break through the first through hole, the volume of the gas-liquid coexistence state is reduced, and the liquid outflow speed is slowed down. When the first overflow prevention cavity is full, the liquid enters the second overflow prevention cavity through the gap formed by the partition and the pot cover, further slowing down the liquid outflow speed. Thus, the single exhaust time is increased.

[0063] In some technical solutions of the present invention, optionally, the distance between the edge of the anti-overflow component on one side close to the cover plate and the cover plate is less than or equal to 5 mm.

[0064] In this technical solution, the distance between the edge of the anti-overflow component on the side close to the cover plate and the cover plate is less than or equal to 5 mm, thereby preventing some solid food from entering the anti-overflow component under the action of air pressure and steam when the liquid food suddenly boils, preventing solid food from accumulating in the anti-overflow component, and reducing the probability of clogging of the anti-overflow component. By setting the size of the gap, further overflow prevention of the cooking utensils can be achieved, and the anti-overflow effect can be improved. At the same time, it helps the anti-overflow component to extend the continuous exhaust time of the cooking utensils, improve the cooking effect of the food, and also improve the overall cleanliness of the cooking utensils, making it easier for users to clean the anti-overflow component.

[0065] Specifically, if the gap between the cover and the anti-overflow component is greater than 5 mm, the anti-overflow effect of the anti-overflow component will be affected. At the same time, when the cooking utensil cooks liquid granular ingredients, a small part of the ingredients can be prevented from overflowing under the action of pressure and flowing gas, thereby improving the anti-overflow effect.

[0066] Specifically, the distance between the edge of the anti-overflow component on one side close to the cover plate and the cover plate is less than or equal to 5 mm and greater than or equal to 1 mm.

[0067] Specifically, the distance between the edge of the anti-overflow component on one side close to the cover plate and the cover plate can be 1 mm, 2 mm, 3 mm, 4 mm, or 5 mm.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0077] In order to more clearly understand the above-mentioned purpose, features and advantages of the utility model, the utility model is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods. It should be noted that the embodiments of the present application and the features in the embodiments can be combined with each other without conflict.

[0078] In the following description, many specific details are set forth to facilitate a full understanding of the present invention. However, the present invention may also be implemented in other ways different from those described herein. Therefore, the protection scope of the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.

[0079] Refer to the following Figures 1 to 5 A pot assembly 10 and a cooking appliance according to some embodiments of the present invention are described.

[0080] In one embodiment of the present invention, Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a pot assembly 10 is provided, including an inner pot 100 and an anti-overflow component 200; the inner pot 100 includes a first body 110 and a positioning portion 130, the first body 110 is provided with a cooking cavity 120, and the positioning portion 130 is connected to the first body 110; the anti-overflow component 200 is arranged in the cooking cavity 120 and is connected to the positioning portion 130, the anti-overflow component 200 has a cavity 210 and a first through hole 220, and the cavity 210 is connected to the cooking cavity 120 through the first through hole 220.

[0081] The pot assembly 10 provided in the present application includes an inner pot 100, and the inner pot 100 includes a first body 110. The first body 110 is provided with a cooking cavity 120, and food materials can be placed in the cooking cavity 120 to achieve cooking of the food materials.

[0082] When the cooking appliance is working, the temperature in the cooking cavity 120 rises. Since the cover assembly 20 of the cooking appliance seals the cooking cavity 120 through the cover plate 30, the pressure in the cooking cavity 120 rises during the operation of the cooking appliance, and the internal gas pressure of the cooking appliance is greater than the external gas pressure. When the cooking appliance is venting, the gas pressure in the cooking cavity 120 drops in a short time. Since the temperature of the food in the cooking cavity 120 drops slowly and the boiling point of the liquid decreases, the liquid food will boil in a short time. The boiling liquid food can enter the anti-overflow component 200 through the first through hole 220. The bubbles in the liquid food can be broken in the first through hole 220, thereby realizing the anti-overflow treatment of the cooking appliance and reducing the probability of food bubbles overflowing the cooking cavity 120 with the gas. Since the anti-overflow component 200 can reduce the probability of food in the cooking cavity 120 overflowing the cooking appliance, the allowable range of the heating power of the cooking appliance can be increased by setting the anti-overflow component 200, and the continuous exhaust time of the cooking appliance can be extended to improve the cooking effect of the food.

[0083] The inner pot 100 includes a positioning portion 130, which is connected to the first body 110. The anti-overflow component 200 is disposed in the cooking cavity 120 and connected to the positioning portion 130, and the anti-overflow component 200 is installed and positioned by the positioning portion 130. Since the anti-overflow component 200 is disposed in the cooking cavity 120 and is installed and positioned by the positioning portion 130, after cooking is completed, the user can take out the anti-overflow component 200 after opening the cover assembly 20, thereby reducing the difficulty of installing and disassembling the anti-overflow component 200, and further reducing the difficulty of cleaning the anti-overflow component 200.

[0084] The anti-overflow component 200 is arranged in the cooking cavity 120, and is used to observe the status inside the anti-overflow component 200 after opening the cover assembly 20, so that the user can observe the residual liquid food in the anti-overflow component 200, so that the user can clean the anti-overflow component 200 more timely, and reduce the probability of bacteria breeding inside the anti-overflow component 200 due to the residual food.

[0085] The anti-overflow component 200 is arranged in the cooking cavity 120. When the cover of the cooking utensil is opened, the anti-overflow component 200 will not tilt as the cover assembly 20 is opened, so that the liquid food in the anti-overflow component 200 will not spill to the outside of the cooking utensil as the cover assembly 20 is opened, thereby reducing the pollution of the surrounding environment during the cooking process of the cooking utensil.

[0086] Specifically, the first through hole 220 may be a circular hole, a triangular hole, or a polygonal hole, or a through hole of any shape.

[0087] This embodiment provides a pot assembly 10. In addition to the technical features of the above-mentioned embodiment, this embodiment further includes the following technical features.

[0088] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the positioning portion 130 is a first protrusion 132 protruding from the inner wall of the first body 110 toward the inside of the cooking cavity 120 ; the anti-overflow component 200 is mounted on the first protrusion 132 .

[0089] In this embodiment, the positioning portion 130 is a first protrusion 132 protruding from the inner wall of the first body 110 toward the inside of the cooking cavity 120, and the anti-overflow component 200 is mounted on the first protrusion 132, and then the anti-overflow component 200 is supported by the first protrusion 132. When using the cooking utensil, the user can install the anti-overflow component 200 by placing the food in the cooking cavity 120 and then placing the anti-overflow component 200 on the first protrusion 132, which further reduces the difficulty of installing the anti-overflow component 200; after cooking, the user can open the cover assembly 20 to take out the anti-overflow component 200, which further reduces the difficulty of disassembling the anti-overflow component 200.

[0090] Furthermore, the first protrusion 132 and the first body 110 may be an integrated structure, that is, a protrusion protruding into the cooking cavity 120 is stamped or spun on the side wall of the first body 110 .

[0091] The first protrusion 132 and the first body 110 may also be two separate components, and the first protrusion 132 is fixed to the inner wall of the first body 110 by welding or riveting.

[0092] This embodiment provides a pot assembly 10. In addition to the technical features of the above-mentioned embodiment, this embodiment further includes the following technical features.

[0093] The positioning portion 130 is a first groove recessed toward the outside of the first body 110 ; at least a portion of the overflow prevention component 200 is embedded in the first groove.

[0094] In this embodiment, the positioning portion 130 is a first groove recessed toward the outside of the first body 110, and at least a portion of the anti-overflow component 200 is embedded in the first groove. While realizing the installation and support of the anti-overflow component 200, the first groove can position the anti-overflow component 200 in the upper and lower directions, thereby preventing the anti-overflow component 200 from being lifted up by boiling ingredients, thereby improving the stability of the anti-overflow component 200 during the cooking process, and further improving the anti-overflow effect of the anti-overflow component 200.

[0095] Furthermore, the first groove and the first body 110 may be an integrated structure, that is, a groove recessed toward the outside of the cooking cavity 120 is punched or spun out on the side wall of the first body 110 .

[0096] This embodiment provides a pot assembly 10. In addition to the technical features of the above-mentioned embodiment, this embodiment further includes the following technical features.

[0097] like Figure 1 As shown, the positioning portions 130 are continuously distributed along the outer circumference of the overflow prevention component 200 .

[0098] like Figure 2 As shown, there are multiple positioning portions 130 , and the multiple positioning portions 130 are arranged at intervals along the outer circumference of the overflow prevention component 200 .

[0099] In this embodiment, the positioning parts 130 are continuously distributed along the periphery of the overflow prevention component 200, so that the positioning parts 130 support the overflow prevention component 200 more stably. There are multiple positioning parts 130, and the multiple positioning parts 130 are arranged at intervals along the periphery of the overflow prevention component 200. The positioning parts 130 can strengthen the strength of the side wall of the first body 110, reduce the probability of deformation of the first side wall due to the high pressure in the cooking cavity 120, and thus ensure the strength of the first body 110 while reducing the thickness of the side wall of the first body 110, thereby reducing the material cost of the first body 110.

[0100] Furthermore, the positioning portion 130 is a first protrusion 132 , and the first protrusion 132 may be continuously distributed along the circumference of the first body 110 , or the first protrusion 132 may be discontinuously distributed along the circumference of the first body 110 .

[0101] The first protrusions 132 may also be a plurality of protrusions on the inner wall of the first body 110 .

[0102] Furthermore, the positioning portion 130 is a first groove, and the first groove may be continuously distributed along the circumference of the first body 110 , or the first groove may be discontinuously distributed along the circumference of the first body 110 .

[0103] like Figure 3 As shown, the first groove may be a groove sunken downward along the inner wall of the first body 110 , thereby forming a step 112 on the inner wall of the first body 110 , and the overflow prevention component 200 is mounted on the step 112 of the inner wall of the first body 110 .

[0104] The first grooves may also be a plurality of concave points on the inner wall of the first body 110 .

[0105] The first groove may also be a recessed area formed by two upper and lower protrusions arranged in parallel.

[0106] This embodiment provides a pot assembly 10. In addition to the technical features of the above-mentioned embodiment, this embodiment further includes the following technical features.

[0107] like Figure 4 and Figure 5As shown, the anti-overflow component 200 includes a second body 230 and a partition 240; the second body 230 has a cavity 210 and a first through hole 220; the partition 240 is arranged in the cavity 210 and connected to the second body 230, and the partition 240 divides the cavity 210 into at least two anti-overflow cavities, and the at least two anti-overflow cavities include a first anti-overflow cavity 212 and a second anti-overflow cavity 214, and the cooking cavity 120 can be connected to the first anti-overflow cavity 212 through the first through hole 220, and the first anti-overflow cavity 212 is connected to the second anti-overflow cavity 214.

[0108] In this embodiment, the anti-overflow component 200 includes a second body 230, which is connected to the cover plate 30. The second body 230 has a cavity 210 and a first through hole 220. The cavity 210 can be connected to the cooking cavity 120 through the first through hole 220. When the cooking appliance is working, the gas in the cooking cavity 120 enters the cavity 210 through the first through hole 220 under the action of pressure. The cavity 210 is connected to the exhaust component 40 of the cooking appliance. The gas entering the cavity 210 is then conducted by the exhaust component 40 connected to the cavity 210, thereby realizing the discharge of the gas in the cooking appliance, adjusting the air pressure, and improving the cooking effect. At the same time, the second body 230 can also destroy the bubbles formed by liquid food, so that the food can be deposited in the cooking cavity 120 and the second body 230, and the bubbles of the food are broken to avoid food overflow, thereby improving the anti-overflow effect of the cooking appliance.

[0109] The overflow prevention component 200 also includes a partition 240, which divides the cavity 210 into at least two overflow prevention cavities. The at least two overflow prevention cavities include a first overflow prevention cavity 212 and a second overflow prevention cavity 214. The cooking cavity 120 can be connected to the first overflow prevention cavity 212 through the first through hole 220, and the first overflow prevention cavity 212 is connected to the second overflow prevention cavity 214. The second overflow prevention cavity 214 is opposite to the exhaust component 40. When the cooking utensil is exhausted through the exhaust component 40, the high-temperature and high-pressure gas in the cooking cavity 120 can enter the first overflow prevention cavity 212 through the first through hole 220, and then enter the second overflow prevention cavity 214 from the first overflow prevention cavity 212. The second overflow prevention cavity 214 is opposite to the exhaust component 40, and then the high-temperature and high-pressure gas in the second overflow prevention cavity 214 is discharged from the cooking utensil through the exhaust component 40, thereby achieving the exhaust of the cooking utensil. Since the high-temperature and high-pressure steam of the cooking appliance needs to pass through the first cooking cavity 120 and the second cooking cavity 120 in turn during the exhaust process, the flow path of the steam inside the anti-overflow component 200 is extended, further improving the anti-overflow effect of the anti-overflow component 200.

[0110] Furthermore, there are multiple first through holes 220, and at least one first through hole 220 among the multiple first through holes 220 is located at the lowest point of the bottom wall of the first anti-overflow cavity 212, so that the liquid food in the first anti-overflow cavity 212 can flow back to the cooking cavity 120 through the first through hole 220 arranged at the lowest point of the bottom wall during the exhaust interval.

[0111] This embodiment provides a pot assembly 10. In addition to the technical features of the above-mentioned embodiment, this embodiment further includes the following technical features.

[0112] like Figure 4 As shown, a second through hole 242 is provided on the partition plate 240 , and the first anti-overflow cavity 212 is connected with the second anti-overflow cavity 214 through the second through hole 242 .

[0113] In this embodiment, a second through hole 242 is provided on the partition 240, and the first anti-overflow chamber 212 is connected with the second anti-overflow chamber 214 through the second through hole 242. The high-temperature and high-pressure gas in the chamber 210 can enter the second chamber 210 through the second through hole 242, and then the bubbles carried by the high-temperature and high-pressure gas can be broken through the second through hole 242, thereby improving the smoothness of exhaust and the anti-overflow effect of the anti-overflow component 200.

[0114] This embodiment provides a pot assembly 10. In addition to the technical features of the above-mentioned embodiment, this embodiment further includes the following technical features.

[0115] like Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the second body 230 has a third through hole 232 , and the second anti-overflow cavity 214 can be communicated with the cooking cavity 120 through the third through hole 232 .

[0116] In this embodiment, the first body 110 has a third through hole 232, and the second anti-overflow cavity 214 can be connected to the cooking cavity 120 through the third through hole 232, so that during the exhaust interval, the liquid food remaining in the second anti-overflow cavity 214 can flow back into the cooking cavity 120 through the third through hole 232, reducing the liquid food remaining in the second anti-overflow cavity 214, thereby reducing the waste of food. In addition, the liquid food remaining in the second anti-overflow cavity 214 flows back into the cooking cavity 120 through the third through hole 232, reducing the liquid food remaining in the second anti-overflow cavity 214, and reducing the difficulty of cleaning the anti-overflow cavity.

[0117] Furthermore, the bottom wall of the first body 110 includes a first area and a second area, and the distance between the first area and the cover plate 30 is greater than the distance between the second area and the cover plate 30; the bottom wall of the first body 110 is provided with a third through hole 232, and the third through hole 232 is located in the first area. By providing two first bodies 110 with height difference areas, the food on the first body 110 can be diverted. When the food accumulates on the surface of the first body 110, the food in the second area will flow into the first area under the action of its own gravity, and then the third through hole 232 provided on the first area can be used to realize the reflux of the liquid food, so as to prevent the overflow food from accumulating in the first anti-overflow cavity 212 after being blocked, and to prevent the accumulation of food while improving the smoothness of exhaust, accelerating the air conduction rate, improving the cooking effect of food, saving food, and reducing the difficulty of cleaning the cooking utensils.

[0118] Furthermore, the third through hole 232 is disposed at the lowest point of the bottom wall of the first body 110 .

[0119] Furthermore, the cover assembly 20 further includes a one-way valve, which is disposed on the third through hole 232, and the liquid food in the second anti-overflow cavity 214 can enter the cooking cavity 120 through the one-way valve. The one-way valve can ensure smooth conduction from the second anti-overflow cavity 214 to the cooking cavity 120, and at the same time block the liquid food in the cooking cavity 120 from entering the second anti-overflow cavity 214, thereby ensuring smooth backflow of the blocked food in the first anti-overflow cavity 212, and preventing the liquid food in the cooking cavity 120 from entering the anti-overflow cavity through the third through hole 232 under the action of rising gas and pressure, thereby improving the anti-overflow effect.

[0120] This embodiment provides a pot assembly 10. In addition to the technical features of the above-mentioned embodiment, this embodiment further includes the following technical features.

[0121] An area of ​​a cross section of the first through hole 220 in the first direction is greater than or equal to 0.5 square millimeters and less than or equal to 50 square millimeters.

[0122] In this embodiment, the cross-sectional area of ​​the first through hole 220 is greater than or equal to 0.5 square millimeters and less than or equal to 50 square millimeters, so that the first through hole 220 can break the bubbles passing through the first through hole 220, so that the liquid food can fall back into the cooking cavity 120 under the action of gravity, and the high-temperature and high-pressure gas can enter the cavity 210 through the first through hole 220, and then be discharged from the cooking utensil through the exhaust assembly 40, so as to reduce the speed of the liquid food overflowing from the first through hole 220, improve the anti-overflow effect of the overflow prevention component 200, and improve the smoothness of the exhaust of the exhaust assembly 40. In addition, the cross-sectional area of ​​the first through hole 220 is greater than or equal to 0.5 square millimeters and less than or equal to 50 square millimeters, so as to reduce the liquid outflow speed, and thus improve the bubble breaking effect of the overflow prevention component 200. The cross-sectional area of ​​the first through hole 220 is greater than or equal to 0.5 square millimeters and less than or equal to 50 square millimeters, which can also reduce the process difficulty of punching the first through hole 220, thereby reducing the processing cost of the overflow prevention component 200.

[0123] Further, the cross-sectional area of ​​the first through hole 220 in the first direction is greater than or equal to 10 square millimeters and less than or equal to 20 square millimeters.

[0124] Further, the cross-sectional area of ​​the first through hole 220 may be 0.5 mm.

[0125] The cross-sectional area of ​​the first through hole 220 may also be 1 mm.

[0126] The cross-sectional area of ​​the first through hole 220 may also be 5 mm, 10 mm, 15 mm, 25 mm or 35 mm.

[0127] The cross-sectional area of ​​the first through hole 220 may also be 50 mm.

[0128] Specifically, the flow direction of the liquid food when passing through the first through hole 220 is the second direction, and the first direction is perpendicular to the second direction.

[0129] This embodiment provides a pot assembly 10. In addition to the technical features of the above-mentioned embodiment, this embodiment further includes the following technical features.

[0130] like Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, there are multiple first through holes 220, which are arranged in parallel; the ratio of the sum of the cross-sectional areas of the multiple first through holes 220 in the first direction to the surface area of ​​the overflow prevention component 200 is greater than or equal to 0.01% and less than or equal to 10%.

[0131] In this embodiment, there are multiple first through holes 220, which are arranged in parallel. The ratio of the sum of the cross-sectional areas of the multiple first through holes 220 in the first direction to the surface area of ​​the first body 110 is greater than or equal to 0.01% and less than or equal to 10%. While ensuring the bubble breaking effect of the first through holes 220, the overall flow area of ​​the first through holes 220 is increased, and while slowing down the speed at which liquid food overflows from the first through holes 220, the efficiency of high-temperature and high-pressure gas passing through the first through holes 220 is improved, thereby improving the smoothness of exhaust of the cooking appliance.

[0132] Further, a ratio of the sum of the cross-sectional areas of the plurality of first through holes 220 in the first direction to the surface area of ​​the first body 110 may be 0.01%.

[0133] The ratio of the sum of the cross-sectional areas of the plurality of first through holes 220 in the first direction to the surface area of ​​the first body 110 may also be 0.1%.

[0134] The ratio of the sum of the cross-sectional areas of the plurality of first through holes 220 in the first direction to the surface area of ​​the first body 110 may also be 1%, 2%, 3%, 5%, 7% and 8%.

[0135] The ratio of the sum of the cross-sectional areas of the plurality of first through holes 220 in the first direction to the surface area of ​​the first body 110 may also be 10%.

[0136] In one embodiment of the present invention, a cooking utensil is provided, comprising a pot assembly 10 as in any of the above embodiments.

[0137] The present application provides a cooking utensil, which includes the pot assembly 10 as in any of the above embodiments, and thus the cooking utensil has all the beneficial effects of the pot assembly 10 in any of the above embodiments.

[0138] Specifically, the cooking appliance may be an electric pressure cooker, a micro-pressure rice cooker, and a thick soup pot.

[0139] This embodiment provides a cover assembly 20. In addition to the technical features of the above embodiments, this embodiment further includes the following technical features.

[0140] like Figure 1 As shown, the cooking appliance further includes a cover assembly 20 , which is connected to the pot assembly 10 and is disposed on the cooking cavity 120 . The cover assembly 20 includes a cover plate 30 ; the opening of the cavity 210 faces the cover plate 30 .

[0141] In this embodiment, the cover assembly 20 can be covered on the cooking cavity 120 of the cooking appliance, and the cooking cavity 120 can be sealed by the cover assembly 20. When sealing the cooking cavity 120, the cover assembly 20 can maintain the pressure of the cooking cavity 120 of the cooking appliance.

[0142] This embodiment provides a cover assembly 20. In addition to the technical features of the above embodiments, this embodiment further includes the following technical features.

[0143] like Figure 1 As shown, there is a gap 300 between the cover plate 30 and the partition plate 240 of the overflow prevention component 200 ; the first overflow prevention cavity 212 of the overflow prevention component 200 is connected to the second overflow prevention cavity 214 of the overflow prevention component 200 through the gap 300 .

[0144] In this embodiment, there is a gap 300 between the partition 240 and the cover plate 30, and the first anti-overflow chamber 212 is connected to the second anti-overflow chamber 214 through the gap 300. The high-temperature and high-pressure gas in the first anti-overflow chamber 212 can enter the second anti-overflow chamber 214 through the gap 300, and then the bubbles carried by the high-temperature and high-pressure gas can be broken through the gap 300 between the partition 240 and the cover plate 30, thereby improving the exhaust smoothness and the anti-overflow effect of the anti-overflow component 200.

[0145] Specifically, when the cooking appliance is venting, the food in the cooking cavity 120 boils due to the venting, and a large number of bubbles are generated in the liquid in the cooking cavity 120, forming a gas-liquid coexistence state, and the volume expands and flows toward the overflow prevention component 200, wherein the bubbles break after passing through the first through hole 220, reducing the volume of the gas-liquid coexistence state, slowing down the liquid outflow speed, and when the first overflow prevention cavity 212 is full, the liquid enters the second overflow prevention cavity 214 through the gap 300 formed by the partition 240 and the pot cover, further slowing down the liquid outflow speed, thereby increasing the single exhaust time.

[0146] This embodiment provides a cover assembly 20. In addition to the technical features of the above embodiments, this embodiment further includes the following technical features.

[0147] like Figure 1 As shown, the distance H between the edge of the anti-overflow component 200 on one side close to the cover plate 30 and the cover plate 30 is less than or equal to 5 mm.

[0148] In this embodiment, the distance H between the edge of the anti-overflow component 200 on one side close to the cover plate 30 and the cover plate 30 is less than or equal to 5 mm, thereby preventing some solid food from entering the anti-overflow component 200 under the action of air pressure and steam when the liquid food suddenly boils, preventing solid food from accumulating in the anti-overflow component 200, and reducing the probability of clogging of the anti-overflow component 200. By setting the size of the gap, further anti-overflow of the cooking utensils can be achieved, and the anti-overflow effect can be improved. At the same time, it helps the anti-overflow component 200 to extend the continuous exhaust time of the cooking utensils, improve the cooking effect of the food, and also improve the overall cleanliness of the cooking utensils, making it easier for users to clean the anti-overflow component 200.

[0149] Specifically, if the gap 300 between the cover 30 and the anti-overflow component 200 is greater than 5 mm, the anti-overflow effect of the anti-overflow component 200 will be affected. At the same time, when the cooking utensil cooks liquid granular ingredients, a small part of the ingredients can be prevented from overflowing under the action of pressure and flowing gas, thereby improving the anti-overflow effect.

[0150] Specifically, a distance H between an edge of the anti-overflow component 200 on one side close to the cover plate 30 and the cover plate 30 is less than or equal to 5 mm and greater than or equal to 1 mm.

[0151] Specifically, the distance H between the edge of the anti-overflow component 200 on one side close to the cover plate 30 and the cover plate 30 can be 1 mm, 2 mm, 3 mm, 4 mm, or 5 mm.
