In the present embodiment, the first clamping plate 11 is rotatably connected to the first end of the second clamping plate 12, and the second end of the first clamping plate 11 is detachably connected to the second end of the second clamping plate 12 through the locking assembly 2, so that the first clamping plate 11 and the second clamping plate 12 can be switched between an unfolded state and a folded state.

[0033] At least two mounting holes 13 are formed between the first clamping plate 11 and the second clamping plate 12. In this embodiment, the number of the mounting holes 13 is two, and the two mounting holes 13 are arranged at intervals up and down. Each mounting hole 13 is configured to be suitable for embedding the water pump 31. In this way, when the water pump 31 is embedded in the mounting hole 13, the water pump 31 is reliably clamped between the first clamping plate 11 and the second clamping plate 12. Figure 7 , thereby achieving fixed installation of the water pump 31 on the water pump mounting structure.

[0034] It can be seen that by providing at least two installation holes 13 arranged at intervals on the water pump installation structure, each installation hole 13 is configured to be suitable for embedding the water pump 31, the structure is simple, and at least two water pumps 31 can be fixed simultaneously through the water pump installation structure, thereby improving assembly efficiency and reducing costs. In addition, by designing the water pump installation structure to be arranged vertically, so that all the installation holes 13 are arranged at intervals in the vertical direction, compared with two water pumps being installed flat on the same plane, the space occupied in the horizontal direction is reduced, and the assembly space is more sufficient.

[0035] Furthermore, the mounting hole 13 may be formed in any of the following ways:

[0036] The first one, reference Figure 1-3 The first clamping plate 11 is provided with at least two first mounting grooves 111 which are open toward the second clamping plate 12 and are arranged at intervals, and the second clamping plate 12 is provided with a second mounting groove 121 which is open toward the first clamping plate 11 at a position corresponding to the first mounting groove 111. When the first clamping plate 11 and the second clamping plate 12 are folded, the second mounting groove 121 and the first mounting groove 111 are enclosed to form a mounting hole 13.

[0037] The second type is different from the first type in that the second mounting groove 121 on the second clamping plate 12 is omitted. Specifically, the first clamping plate 11 is provided with at least two first mounting grooves 111 opening toward the second clamping plate 12 and arranged at intervals, and the second clamping plate 12 and the first mounting grooves 111 are enclosed to form a mounting hole 13.

[0038] The third type is different from the first type in that the first mounting groove 111 on the first clamping plate 11 is omitted. Specifically, the second clamping plate 12 is provided with at least two second mounting grooves 121 opening toward the first clamping plate 11 and arranged at intervals, and the first clamping plate 11 and the second mounting grooves 121 are enclosed to form a mounting hole 13.

[0039] refer to Figure 2 In this embodiment, the mounting hole 13 includes a first through hole 131 and a second through hole 132 that are connected to each other. The diameter of the first through hole 131 is larger than the diameter of the second through hole 132. A limiting step is formed at the connection between the first through hole 131 and the second through hole 132. In other embodiments, the diameters of the first through hole 131 and the second through hole 132 may be the same.

[0040] The water pump 31 has an electricity connection end and a water connection end arranged opposite to each other, the first through hole 131 is configured to accommodate the water connection end of the water pump 31, and the second through hole 132 is configured to accommodate the electricity connection end of the water pump 31. When the water pump 31 is embedded in the mounting hole 13, the electricity connection end of the water pump 31 is inserted into the second through hole 132, and the water connection end of the water pump 31 is inserted into the first through hole 131 and abuts against the limiting step, so that the installation depth of the water pump 31 can be limited and the water pump 31 can be prevented from moving toward the second through hole 132.

[0041] refer to Figure 1-3 Furthermore, at least one end of the mounting hole 13 is provided with at least one limiting portion 14 extending toward the central axis of the mounting hole 13, and the limiting portion 14 is integrally formed with the fixing bracket 1, and is used to limit and fix the water pump 31 in the mounting hole 13 to prevent the water pump 31 from falling out. In this embodiment, a pair of limiting structures are provided at the left and right ends of the mounting hole 13, and the pair of limiting structures is composed of two limiting portions 14 arranged oppositely. In this way, the left and right ends of the water pump 31 can be limited by the two pairs of limiting structures, and the water pump 31 can be further prevented from falling out.

[0042] refer to Figure 1-3The first end of the first splint 11 is rotatably connected to the first end of the second splint 12. In the present embodiment, the first end of the first splint 11 and the first end of the second splint 12 are integrally formed. In addition, a groove 15 is formed at the connection between the first end of the first splint 11 and the second splint 12 to reduce the thickness of the connection and improve the deformability, thereby ensuring that the first splint 11 and the second splint 12 can rotate away from each other around the first end to an unfolded state, or rotate close to each other around the first end to a folded state.

[0043] In other embodiments, the first ends of the first clamping plate 11 and the second clamping plate 12 are rotatably connected via a hinge assembly. The hinge assembly may include a rotating shaft or a hinge, and the first ends of the first clamping plate 11 and the second clamping plate 12 are rotatably connected via the rotating shaft or the hinge.

[0044] refer to Figure 1-3 , the second end of the first clamping plate 11 and the second end of the second clamping plate 12 are detachably connected through the locking assembly 2. The locking assembly 2 includes a locking screw, which is transversely arranged in the second clamping plate 12 and the first clamping plate 11 and is fastened to the first clamping plate 11; or, the locking assembly 2 includes a locking screw and a locking nut, which is transversely arranged in the second clamping plate 12 and the first clamping plate 11 and is fastened to the locking nut. By adjusting the matching degree of the locking nut and the locking screw, the closing degree of the second end of the first clamping plate 11 and the second clamping plate 12 can be adjusted, thereby adjusting the size of the mounting hole 13. Of course, the locking assembly 2 can also be set as a buckle structure.

[0045] refer to Figure 1-3 , a fixing seat 16 is provided on the first clamping plate 11 and / or the second clamping plate 12, and the fixing seat 16 is used to be detachably connected to the heat insulation board 41 on the cooking device. In this embodiment, the second ends of the first clamping plate 11 and the second clamping plate 12 are respectively integrally formed with a fixing seat 16 extending outward, and a clamping portion 161 and a fixing hole 162 are provided on the fixing seat 16, and the clamping portion 161 is used to cooperate with the heat insulation board 41 to clamp the water pump installation structure in a pre-positioned manner on the heat insulation board 41. The fastener 32 is passed through the fixing hole 162 of the fixing seat 16 and is fastened to the heat insulation board 41, so that the water pump installation structure is firmly and reliably installed on the heat insulation board 41.

[0046] In particular, when the water pump mounting structure or the fixing bracket 1 is installed horizontally, a downward extending fixing seat 16 can be integrally formed at the bottom of the first clamping plate 11 or the second clamping plate 12, and at least one clamping portion 161 and / or at least one fixing hole 162 can be provided on the fixing seat 16.

[0047] refer to Figure 4-7The present embodiment further provides a cooking device, which can be any one of a steamer, a steam oven or an integrated cooker with a steaming function. The cooking device includes a box assembly 4, a water pump assembly, a water tank assembly 5 and a steam generator 6, wherein the box assembly 4 has a heat insulation board 41 and a cooking cavity 42 with an opening on one side, and the heat insulation board 41 is arranged above the cooking cavity 42.

[0048] The water pump assembly includes a water pump 31 and a water pump mounting structure as described above. The water pump mounting structure is arranged vertically and can be detachably mounted on the top of the heat insulation board 41. The water pump mounting structure has at least two mounting holes 13 arranged in an upper and lower interval and suitable for accommodating the water pump 31. The water pump 31 is embedded in at least one mounting hole 13. In this embodiment, the number of mounting holes 13 is two, and a water pump 31 is fixedly mounted in each of the two mounting holes 13. The water tank assembly 5 is arranged on the top of the heat insulation board 41 and is located in front of the water pump assembly. The steam generator 6 can be detachably mounted on the top of the heat insulation board 41 and has a water inlet and a steam outlet. The water inlet is connected to the inside of the water tank assembly 5 through at least one water pump 31, and the steam outlet is connected to the cooking cavity 42.

[0049] It can be seen that through the water pump installation structure, the two water pumps 31 can be fixedly installed on the top of the insulation board 41 with an upper and lower interval at the same time, which is convenient for disassembly and assembly, reduces costs, and makes the assembly space on the top of the insulation board 41 more sufficient; in addition, the water inlet of the steam generator 6 is connected to the inside of the water tank assembly 5 through two water pumps, so that the water inlet adjustment range of the steam generator 6 is wider, which is convenient for rapid water inlet, and after one of the water pumps fails, the other water pump can continue to work, reducing the risk of failure to inlet water due to water pump failure.

[0050] refer to Figure 5-7 Furthermore, at least one clamping portion 161 and at least one fixing hole 162 are provided on the fixing seat 16 of the water pump mounting structure, and a clamping hole 411 is provided at a position of the heat insulation board 41 corresponding to the clamping portion 161, and the clamping portion 161 is engaged with the clamping hole 411 to detachably mount the water pump mounting structure on the heat insulation board 41 and form a first connection point. The water pump assembly also includes a fastener 32, which is preferably a screw, which passes through the fixing hole 162 of the fixing seat 16 from top to bottom and is fastened to the heat insulation board 41 to detachably mount the water pump mounting structure on the heat insulation board 41 and form a second connection point. Therefore, through the cooperation of the first connection point and the second connection point, the water pump assembly is more firmly and reliably fixed on the heat insulation board 41.

[0051] refer to Figure 4-5At the position of the heat insulation board 41 corresponding to the water tank assembly 5, an upward extending support portion (not shown in the figure) is integrally formed, and the support portion is composed of a plurality of convex ribs 413 arranged at intervals, and a heat dissipation space is formed between adjacent convex ribs 413. In this way, by providing the support portion, the overall strength of the heat insulation board 41 is strengthened, and the water tank assembly 5 is reliably supported, which is conducive to reducing the temperature rise of the water tank assembly 5. At the position of the heat insulation board 41 corresponding to the steam generator 6, a downward concave sink 414 is integrally formed, and the steam generator 6 can be detachably installed in the sink 414.

[0052] Example 2

[0053] refer to Figure 8 The difference between this embodiment and the first embodiment is that the connection method of the first end of the first clamping plate 11 and the second clamping plate 12 is different. In this embodiment, the first end of the first clamping plate 11 and the second clamping plate 12 are detachably connected through the locking assembly 2, and the locking assembly 2 can be a locking screw or a buckle structure, so that the first end of the first clamping plate 11 and the second clamping plate 12 can also be detachable.
