[0027] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, not all of the embodiments. According to the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0028] In the description of the embodiments of the present application, it should be noted that, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, the terms "connected" and "connection" should be understood in a broad sense, for example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be directly connected or indirectly connected through an intermediate medium. For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in the embodiments of the present application can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0029] When a cooking utensil is used to cook rice, there are often multiple stages, including a soaking stage, a gelatinization stage, a boiling stage, and a gelatinization and stewing stage. When the rice starts to be cooked, the rice and water are put into the cooking utensil in a certain proportion. In the soaking stage, the cooking utensil heats up and soaks the rice. When the temperature reaches a certain temperature, the rice enters a heat preservation soaking stage, so that the rice absorbs a part of the water. After soaking for a preset time, the cooking utensil continues to heat up to a preset temperature, and the rice continues to absorb water and continues to gelatinize. After a certain time, the water inside the cooking utensil continues to heat up until it enters a boiling stage, and the boiling stage is maintained for a period of time to reach a high-pressure gelatinization stage. After the high-pressure gelatinization stage is maintained for a period of time, the cooking utensil enters a stewing stage. At this time, there is still a stage in the cooking utensil that maintains a boiling state, and the rice inside the cooking utensil is completely cooked and the rice soup is completely discharged by utilizing the stage of maintaining a boiling state. When the cooking appliance is in the boiling stage, the internal pressure increases with the increase of temperature, which causes a large pressure difference between the area where rice is cooked and the position where rice soup is collected inside the cooking appliance. The pressure difference is used to press the rice soup into a position independent of the rice cooking area, thereby realizing the collection of rice soup.

[0030] In one aspect of the present application, a cooking utensil is provided. Figure 1 and Figure 2 , Figure 1 is a top view of an embodiment of the cooking utensil provided by the present application; Figure 2 yes Figure 1sectional view of the cooking utensil along the AA section. In some embodiments, the cooking utensil comprises a pot body 1, a rice soup collecting box 2 and a cover body 3, wherein the pot body 1 is provided with a cooking cavity 11, the cover body 3 is connected to the pot body 1, comprises an inner side surface 30 facing the cooking cavity 11, and can be operated to open or close the cooking cavity 11. A rice soup passage 31 is also included, the rice soup passage 31 is arranged on the cover body 3, the rice soup passage 31 is connected with the rice soup collecting box 2 and the cooking cavity 11, and is used to transport the rice soup generated in the normal operation of the cooking utensil from the inside of the cooking cavity 11 to the rice soup collecting box 2. The ratio of the depth d of the rice soup passage 31 extending into the cooking cavity 11 from the bottom end of the inner side surface 30 to the depth l of the cooking cavity 11 is in the range of 10%-30%, that is, the range of d / h is in the range of 10%-30%, specifically, it can be 10%, 15%, 20%, 25%, 30%, etc. When an air pressure difference occurs between the cooking cavity 11 and the rice soup collecting box 2 and the rice soup needs to be discharged, the air pressure in the cooking cavity 11 can accumulate energy in the remaining space inside the cooking cavity 11, and the accumulated energy can smoothly send the rice soup into the rice soup channel 31 when the rice soup channel 31 is opened, thereby ensuring that the rice soup generated in this working mode can be completely discharged from the cooking cavity, avoiding the situation where the rice soup to be discharged cannot be completely discharged due to insufficient kinetic energy caused by the air pressure difference, thereby affecting the cooking of rice, achieving a good rice soup discharge effect, and improving the market competitiveness of the cooking device.

[0031] In order to ensure that the rice soup inside the cooking cavity 11 can be transported to the rice soup collecting box 2 with maximum efficiency, in some embodiments, most preferably, the ratio of the depth d of the bottom end of the communication channel 311 extending into the cooking cavity 11 to the depth l of the cooking cavity 11 is d / h=21%. This further ensures that the rice soup can be completely discharged from the cooking cavity 11 under the action of the pressure difference, and improves the transportation efficiency of the rice soup inside the entire cooking device.

[0032] In some embodiments, the rice soup channel 31 is integrally formed with the cover body 3 and is a channel that runs through the inner side surface 30 and the rice soup collecting box 2. The rice soup transported from the cooking cavity 11 can be directly transported to the rice soup collecting box 2 via the rice soup channel 31 inside the cover body 3.

[0033] In other embodiments, please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 4 , Figure 4 yes Figure 1The rice soup passage 31 also includes a silicone pressure relief pipe 33, which is installed on the cover body 3 and exposed to the inner side surface 30. The silicone pressure relief pipe 33 is provided with a hollow pipe (not shown) running through both ends, and the rice soup passage 31 at least partially includes the hollow pipe. At this time, the silicone pressure relief pipe 33 and the cover body 3 are set in an interference fit to prevent the rice soup from leaking from the joint between the two when the rice soup passes through the hollow pipe of the silicone pressure relief pipe 33 and is transported to the rice soup passage 31, thereby affecting the normal operation of the entire cooking utensil.

[0034] Understandable, please continue to refer to Figure 2 and Figure 5 , Figure 5 3 is a cross-sectional view of another embodiment of the cooking device provided by the present application. The rice soup channel 31 includes a connecting channel 311 and a diversion channel 312 connected to the connecting channel 311. In some embodiments, the connecting channel 311 passes through the inner side 30, and the diversion channel 312 extends to the side wall 32 passing through the cover 3. The rice soup produced in the cooking cavity 11 enters the rice soup collecting box 2 after passing through the connecting channel 311 and the diversion channel 312.

[0035] In other embodiments, the guide channel 312 extends to the top 34 that penetrates the cover body 3. At this time, along the direction of gravity, the rice soup collecting box 2 is located at the upper part of the pot body 1, and the connecting channel 311 is connected to the guide channel 312 and is directly connected to the rice soup collecting box 2. When the cooking cavity 11 works normally and the pressure inside the cooking cavity 11 reaches a certain value, the rice soup can enter the rice soup collecting box 2 along the connecting channel 311 and the guide channel 312 to realize the collection of rice soup.

[0036] Furthermore, the connecting channel 311 and the guide channel 312 can be detachably connected to each other, and a seal (not shown) should be provided at the connection between the connecting channel 311 and the guide channel 312 to ensure that the rice soup will not leak at the connection when it is transferred through the connecting channel 311 and the guide channel 312, thereby affecting the normal operation of the cooking appliance.

[0037] Alternatively, the connecting channel 311 and the guiding channel 312 are integrally formed and arranged together inside the cover body 3. After the cooking appliance has been working for a period of time, the rice soup in the cooking cavity 11 is sent into the rice soup collecting box 2 through the rice soup channel 31 formed by the connecting channel 311 and the guiding channel 312, so as to collect the rice soup.

[0038] In some embodiments, the cooking utensil also includes a guide portion 23, which is integrally formed with the rice soup collecting box 2. The rice soup collecting box 2 includes a rice soup inlet 21, which is arranged on the guide portion 23. The guide portion 23 is accommodated in the guide channel 312, and the rice soup inlet 21 is connected to the connecting channel 311, so that the rice soup can be delivered from the rice soup inlet 21 to the rice soup collecting box 2 via the connecting channel 311 and the guide channel 312.

[0039] Among them, in other embodiments, the guide part 23 is installed on the box body 22 of the rice soup collecting box 2, and a sealing structure (not shown) is provided at the connection between the box body 22 and the guide part 23. When the guide part 23 is covered on the box body 22, the sealing structure is used to ensure that when the rice soup passes through the guide part 23 and enters the rice soup collecting box 2 from the rice soup inlet 21, it will not splash from the connection between the guide part 23 and the box body 22, resulting in waste of rice soup. In severe cases, the hotter rice soup may splash onto the user, causing injury to the user.

[0040] Further, please refer to Figure 3 , Figure 6 and Figure 7 , Figure 3 yes Figure 1 A structural schematic diagram of an embodiment of the rice soup collection box described in; Figure 6 yes Figure 5 A schematic structural diagram of an embodiment of the guide member described in; Figure 7 yes Figure 5 Schematic diagram of the connection structure of the guide member and the cover body. In some embodiments, the rice soup channel 31 includes a mounting seat 231 and a mounting cover 232 disposed on the mounting seat 231, and the two ends of the mounting seat 231 extend with an inlet end 2311 and an outlet end 2312 respectively, and the mounting seat 231 includes a flow cavity 2310, and the flow cavity 2310 extends and passes through the inlet end 2311 and the outlet end 2312. Among them, the inlet end 2311 is located in the connecting channel 311, and the inlet end 2311 is connected to the connecting channel 311, and the outlet end 2312 is disposed in the guide channel 312, and the outlet end 2312 is connected to the guide channel 312. The cover body 3 includes an installation cavity (not shown), and the mounting seat 231 is installed in the installation cavity. When the cooking appliance selects a mode for discharging rice soup, the rice soup channel 31 formed by the mounting seat 231 and the mounting cover 232 can be installed inside the installation cavity, and the rice soup is transported to the rice soup collecting box 2 through the circulation cavity 2310. The rice soup channel 31 can be installed on the cover body 3 or removed from the cover body 3 as needed, thereby realizing the diversity of usage scenarios of the entire cooking appliance.

[0041] It is understandable that in other embodiments, please continue to refer to Figure 5When the rice soup collecting box 2 is arranged inside the pot body 1, the outlet end 2312 extends downward and is connected to the rice soup collecting box, and the inlet end 2311, the outlet end 2312 and the flow cavity 2310 together form a rice soup channel 31. The rice soup generated inside the cooking cavity 11 flows out of the flow cavity 2310 through the inlet end 2311 and enters the rice soup collecting box 2 through the outlet end 2312.

[0042] Further, in order to speed up the collection efficiency of the rice soup when it enters the rice soup channel 31, in other embodiments, please continue to refer to Figure 6 The mounting seat 231 includes an inclined bottom wall 230 close to the pot body 1. Along the gravity direction, the inclined bottom wall 230 extends downward from the connecting channel 311 to the direction of the rice soup collecting box 2. It can be understood that the angle between the inclined bottom wall 230 and the gravity direction is 0-90 degrees, preferably, it can be greater than or equal to 10 degrees and less than 90 degrees, specifically, it can be 10 degrees, 30 degrees, 50 degrees, 70 degrees, 89 degrees, etc. In order to ensure that the cooking appliance works normally, when the rice soup enters the rice soup collecting box 2 from the cooking cavity 11 through the rice soup channel 31, the rice soup flowing through the rice soup channel 31 always enters the rice soup collecting box 2 along the slope of the inclined bottom wall 230 under the action of gravity, so as to prevent the rice soup from flowing back into the cooking cavity 11 when entering the guide channel 312 along the connecting channel 311, thereby reducing the collection rate of the rice soup, and more seriously, it may affect the cooking of rice in the cooking cavity.

[0043] Further, in some embodiments, please continue to refer to Figure 5 A stopper 233 extends from the edge of the connecting passage 311 or the inlet end 2311 toward the rice soup inlet 21. The stopper 233 is used to separate the rice soup that enters the rice soup passage 31 due to the impact of the air pressure difference from the connecting passage 311, so as to prevent the rice soup from returning to the cooking chamber 11 along the connecting passage 311 due to inertia or reaction force, thereby affecting the normal cooking of rice. It can be understood that the stopper 233 surrounds at least one end of the connecting passage 311 toward the rice soup inlet 21. After the rice soup enters the rice soup passage 31, the rice soup near the end of the rice soup collecting box 2 will flow downward along the inclined bottom wall 230 under the action of gravity until it passes through the rice soup inlet 21 and is transported to the rice soup collecting box 2.

[0044] In some embodiments, the rice soup channel 31 further includes an anti-backflow chamber 234, which is formed by the rice soup channel 31 and at least part of the stopper 233, and is connected to the connecting channel 311, so that the rice soup that enters the rice soup channel 31 due to the air pressure difference can enter the anti-backflow chamber 234 after colliding with the inside of the rice soup channel 31. Along the gravity direction, the bottom wall surface of the anti-backflow chamber 234 and the inclined bottom wall 230 are located in the same plane, and the anti-backflow chamber 234 and the rice soup channel 31 have the same outlet, so that after entering the anti-backflow chamber 234, under the action of the external atmospheric pressure, the rice soup can still be transported to the rice soup collection box 2 along the path of the rice soup channel 31 to avoid the anti-backflow chamber 234, thereby ensuring that all the rice soup that enters the anti-backflow chamber 234 can be completely transported to the rice soup collection box 2, and ensuring the stability of the rice soup during transportation and circulation.

[0045] In order to ensure that the rice soup can smoothly enter the rice soup channel 31 from the connecting channel 311, in some embodiments, the connecting channel 311 is a circular through hole to ensure that when the rice soup enters the connecting channel 311, the rice soup will not collide with the inner wall of the connecting channel 311 unnecessarily. The rice soup loses the kinetic energy brought by the pressure difference due to the collision, and flows back to the cooking cavity 11 along the inner wall of the connecting channel 311, resulting in a decrease in the transportation efficiency of the rice soup. The diameter of the connecting channel 311 ranges from 5 to 20 mm. Preferably, it can be 7 mm, 9 mm, 11 mm, 13 mm, 15 mm, 17 mm, etc. When the cross-sectional area at any position in the connecting channel 311 is the same, the connecting channel 311 is cylindrical.

[0046] For further information, please refer to Figure 4In other embodiments, the communication channel 311 includes an inlet 3111 and an outlet 3112, wherein the inlet 3111 is located at the end close to the cooking cavity 11, and the outlet 3112 is located at the end far from the cooking cavity 11. It is understandable that there may be a plurality of inlets 3111 and outlets 3112, which are regularly arranged on the cover body 3 along the extension direction of the communication channel 311. On the one hand, the rice soup inside the cooking cavity 11 can enter the rice soup channel 31 from a plurality of communication channels 311 at the same time when it reaches the communication channel 311, thereby accelerating the speed at which the rice soup enters the rice soup channel 31. On the other hand, when the rice soup rushes out of the cooking cavity 11, it will inevitably drive the rice grains to rush to the communication channel 311 synchronously. By providing a plurality of communication channels 311, when the rice soup drives a large number of rice grains, resulting in the blockage of one or several communication channels 311, other additional communication channels 311 can still realize the transportation of the rice soup into the rice soup channel 31. Furthermore, when too much rice soup passes through the connecting passage 311 and the rice soup cannot be transported to the rice soup collecting box 2, the rice soup will be blocked at the outlet 3112, thereby causing the rice soup to flow back. In order to avoid this situation, multiple outlets 3112 may also be provided.

[0047] It can be understood that multiple silicone pressure relief tubes 33 are arranged in the multiple connecting channels 311 to ensure that when the rice soup is transported to the rice soup collecting box 2 through the multiple connecting channels 311, the sealing of the rice soup during transportation can still be guaranteed to avoid leakage of the rice soup, thereby affecting the transportation efficiency of the rice soup.

[0048] In some embodiments, along the direction from the inlet 3111 to the outlet 3112, the cross-sectional area of ​​the connecting channel 311 gradually decreases, reducing the loss of rice soup when entering the rice soup channel 31. It can be understood that the connecting channel 311 is a circular through hole, the diameter range at the inlet 3111 is 10-15mm, specifically, it can be 10mm, 13mm, 15mm, etc., and the diameter range at the outlet 3112 is 8-12mm. Specifically, it can be 8mm, 10mm, 12mm, etc. When the cross-sectional area of ​​the inlet 3111 and the cross-sectional area of ​​the outlet 3112 always differ by a fixed value, please refer to Figure 2At this time, the connecting channel 311 is formed by two cylindrical through holes with different cross-sectional areas connected together to form the connecting channel 311, so that when the rice soup driven by the large air pressure difference enters the connecting channel 311 and then enters the rice soup channel 31, the cross-sectional area of ​​the rice soup is reduced to a certain extent due to the connecting channel 311, and the rice soup entering the rice soup channel 31 at the same time is reduced, thereby reducing the effect of the air pressure difference on the rice soup channel 31 and reducing the loss of rice soup during transportation, that is, when the cooking utensil is required to work and discharge the rice soup, the additional water can discharge no less than 50% of the rice soup, and the rice soup output rate is guaranteed under the condition that it does not affect the cooking utensil's cooking of rice of different hardnesses, so as to meet more application scenarios.

[0049] In other embodiments, please continue to refer to Figure 5 The connecting channel 311 is trumpet-shaped, wherein the cross-sectional area of ​​one end of the connecting channel 311 connected to the rice soup channel 31 is smaller than the cross-sectional area of ​​one end of the connecting channel 311 connected to the cooking cavity 11, further ensuring that when the rice soup enters the connecting channel 311, no additional collision occurs, resulting in power loss caused by the pressure difference, which affects the transportation of the rice soup.

[0050] In some additional embodiments, the connecting channel 311 can also be designed to have a rectangular or other regular shape in cross-section according to the actual setting requirements inside the cooking appliance, thereby further improving the design versatility of the cooking appliance while ensuring that the cross-sectional area of ​​the outlet 3112 of the connecting channel 311 is smaller than the cross-sectional area of ​​the inlet 3111.

[0051] Please continue to refer to Figure 1 The side wall 10 of the cooking utensil is also provided with an installation opening (not shown), and the rice soup collecting box 2 is correspondingly provided with a buckle (not shown), which is engaged with the installation opening to realize free access to the rice soup collecting box 2.

[0052] Furthermore, in order to ensure that the rice soup can avoid being affected by unnecessary air pressure during transportation and flow smoothly into the rice soup collecting box 2, in some embodiments, the rice soup collecting box 2 is also provided with an exhaust hole 24, which is used to discharge the atmospheric pressure that enters the rice soup channel 31 together with the rice soup and enters the cooking cavity 11 in the rice soup collecting box 2, so that the air pressure inside the rice soup collecting box 2 is always in a relatively stable range, thereby ensuring that when the cooking appliance works normally, the rice soup can be pressed into the rice soup channel 31 and sent into the rice soup collecting box 2 through the pressure difference between the increased atmospheric pressure in the cooking cavity 11 and the pressure inside the rice soup collecting box 2.

[0053] In some embodiments, a heating element (not shown) may be additionally provided on the side of the pot body 1 close to the rice soup collecting box 2, and a sensing element (not shown) may be correspondingly provided on the rice soup collecting box 2. When the rice soup in the rice soup collecting box 2 needs to be heated, the rice soup collecting box 2 may be attached to the side of the pot body 1, and a signal is emitted by the sensing element to enable the heating element to heat the rice soup.

[0054] It is understandable that, since the rice soup collection box 2 is arranged outside the pot body 1 and is in direct contact with the outside, the temperature of the rice soup inside the rice soup collection box 2 cannot be guaranteed compared with the case where the rice soup collection box 2 is arranged on the pot body 1. As time goes by, the temperature inside the rice soup collection box 2 will decrease, thereby affecting the taste of the rice soup. Therefore, an additional heat preservation member (not shown) can be arranged inside or outside the rice soup collection box 2, and the heat preservation member is mounted on the outside of the rice soup collection box 2 to keep the rice soup warm, reduce the rate of temperature drop of the rice soup, and improve the use experience of the cooking utensil.
