Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of household appliances, in particular to a cooking device. Background Art

[0002] Holographic technology is generally used in product advertising displays, commercial performances and other occasions, but its application in the field of home appliances is still very limited. This is limited by cost factors, complex implementation methods, and insufficient application scenario requirements. Holographic displays currently generally achieve the purpose of imaging in the air by hiding the display. However, in home appliances, in the face of unclear application scenarios, the cost-effectiveness of holographic displays is still not high. For example, OLED (Organic Light-Emitting Diode) transparent screens can meet holographic requirements because the screen is transparent, but the price is much higher than ordinary TFT (Thin Film Transistor) LCD screens.

[0023] A preferred embodiment is given below, and the present invention is described more clearly and completely in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0024] Example 1

[0025] This embodiment provides a cooking device, such as Figure 1 As shown, the cooking device includes: an inner pot (not shown in the figure), a door body 101 and a light source (not shown in the figure). The light source is arranged on the inner pot. The door body includes: a display screen, a first glass and a second glass. The display screen is fixed between the first glass and the second glass. The display screen includes a liquid crystal layer and a backlight layer that are fixedly connected, and the size of the backlight layer is smaller than the size of the liquid crystal layer.

[0026] In this embodiment, the light source is arranged on the inner container, and the display screen is fixedly arranged between the first glass and the second glass; the inner container is illuminated by the light source around the inner container, and because the size of the backlight layer is smaller than the size of the liquid crystal layer, the interior of the inner container can be seen through the part of the display screen where the backlight layer is not arranged, and further, by displaying the animation of the display screen, virtual smoke, steam, flames, etc., combined with 3D depth of field and shadow design, the hidden display panel achieves a holographic effect, and achieves a vivid hybrid display effect combining virtual and reality. Among them, the display screen in this embodiment can use a low-cost TFT liquid crystal screen to improve the cost-effectiveness of the holographic display of home appliances.

[0027] In a specific implementation, the display screen further includes a polarizer, a color filter, an external polarizer, a diffusion film and a prism.

[0028] In an optional embodiment, the backlight layer includes a first backlight area and a second backlight area, and the first backlight area and the second backlight area are respectively fixedly connected to two ends of one side of the liquid crystal layer.

[0029] In this embodiment, if Figure 2 As shown, the door body includes a display screen, a first glass 201 and a second glass 202. The display screen is fixed between the first glass and the second glass. The display screen includes a liquid crystal layer 203 and a backlight layer that are fixedly connected. The backlight layer includes a first backlight area 204 and a second backlight area 205. Among them, a liquid crystal screen with a partial backlight layer can be used as the display screen, and the backlight layer in the middle part of the liquid crystal screen is removed, and only the liquid crystal screen part including the liquid crystal layer is retained; that is, Figure 2 As shown, the first backlight area and the second backlight area are fixedly connected to two ends of one side of the liquid crystal layer. The light from the light source can penetrate the liquid crystal layer without the backlight layer, making the display screen transparent so that the food inside the inner pot can be seen.

[0030] In an optional embodiment, Figure 2 As shown, the door body further includes a display panel 206, and the display panel is located between the second glass and the backlight layer. In a specific example, the display panel is used to display a control page, which is convenient for the user to view the display content, understand the operating status of the cooking device, better understand the working status of the cooking device, improve the user experience, and increase the user's interactive experience with the cooking device.

[0031] In an optional embodiment, the door body further comprises a touch screen, and the touch screen is arranged on a side of the first glass away from the second glass. In a specific example, the touch screen material can be directly brushed, painted or pasted on the side of the first glass away from the second glass to arrange the touch screen on the first glass.

[0032] In an optional embodiment, the touch screen is specifically arranged in an area on the first glass corresponding to the display panel. In a specific example, the display panel can also display panel icons, so the touch screen can be selected to be arranged in an area on the first glass corresponding to the display panel. In a specific implementation, the user can realize different functions by operating the position corresponding to the position of the panel icon on the touch screen to control the cooking device.

[0033] In an optional embodiment, the touch screen is specifically arranged in the area of ​​the first glass corresponding to the liquid crystal layer. In a specific example, the touch screen is arranged in the entire area of ​​the first glass corresponding to the liquid crystal layer, and since the touch screen material itself has a transparent property, it will not affect the penetration of light inside the cooking device.

[0034] In an optional embodiment, the color of the light source and the color of the inner container are both white. In a specific example, the color of the light source and the inner container is preferably white, which is conducive to uniform diffusion of diffuse reflection of light.

[0035] In an optional embodiment, there are multiple light sources, which are respectively arranged around the inner container.

[0036] In this embodiment, light sources can be arranged at multiple locations of the inner container. Figure 3 In the example shown, there are five light sources, and the direction of the inner liner facing the display screen is defined as the front, and the light sources are respectively arranged at the top, bottom, left side, right side and back side of the inner liner 301. When the inner liner is illuminated by the light source, the part of the display screen without the backlight layer is transparent, and the inner environment of the inner liner can be seen, and the objects inside the inner liner and the screen image are displayed at the same time, achieving the effect of combining virtual and reality.

[0037] In an optional embodiment, Figure 2 As shown, the door body further includes a third glass 207, and the third glass is fixedly connected to a side of the second glass away from the first glass.

[0038] In this embodiment, the glass of the door body is preferably provided with three layers or more, which can reduce the influence of high temperature on the liquid crystal and other electronic devices during cooking. Figure 2 In the example shown, three layers of glass are provided, namely, the first glass, the second glass and the third glass. In actual use, if the temperature rise is normal, the number of layers of glass provided can be reduced.

[0039] In an optional embodiment, Figure 1 As shown, the cooking device includes a water tank 102, which is arranged below the door body.

[0040] In this embodiment, the cooking device can be a steamer, a steam oven, etc., and the water tank is arranged at the bottom of the cooking device. The water tank can provide the required water vapor and humidity for the cooking ingredients. During the cooking process, according to different ingredients, an appropriate amount of water is added, the water is heated to generate steam, and the steam enters the ingredients, making the ingredients more tender and more delicious.

[0041] Although the specific implementations of the utility model are described above, those skilled in the art should understand that this is only an example, and the protection scope of the utility model is defined by the attached claims. Those skilled in the art can make various changes or modifications to these implementations without departing from the principle and essence of the utility model, but these changes and modifications fall within the protection scope of the utility model.
