[0036] This embodiment discloses a cooking device, which may be, but is not limited to, an electromagnetic cooker, which can cook while bearing the weight of the cooker. This embodiment is described by taking an electromagnetic cooker as an example. Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the cooking device includes a microcrystalline panel 4, a mica sheet 5, an electromagnetic coil 6, a coil positioning block 7, a control assembly 8, a top plate assembly 1, a plurality of sensor assemblies 2, an electric control assembly 9 and a bottom shell assembly 3. The other structures of the cooking device are the same as those of the existing electromagnetic cooker and will not be described in detail here.

[0037] In this embodiment, the electronic control component 9 may include a centralized or distributed controller. For example, the controller may be a single single-chip microcomputer or may be composed of multiple distributed single-chip microcomputers. The control program may be run in the single-chip microcomputer to control the electromagnetic coil 6 and the control component 8 to realize their functions.

[0038] The microcrystalline panel 4 is located at the top and is used to carry cooking utensils (not shown); the mica sheet 5, the electromagnetic coil 6 and the coil positioning block 7 are all located below the microcrystalline panel 4 and are used to generate cooking energy; the control component 8 is located below the microcrystalline panel 4 to achieve human-computer interaction; the top plate component 1 is fixedly connected to the back of the microcrystalline panel 4 to improve the structural strength of the microcrystalline panel 4, and the top plate component 1, the microcrystalline panel 4 and the coil positioning block 7 are bonded together by silicone glue to prevent the cooking utensils or kitchen utensils from falling and damaging the microcrystalline panel 4; the top plate component 1 is fixedly connected to the sensor component 2, so that The sensor assembly 2 is fixed to the lower part of the top plate assembly 1. The sensor assembly 2 can accurately weigh the weight of all objects above the top plate assembly 1. When the amount of the cooker located above the top plate assembly 1 changes (i.e., the main ingredients, auxiliary ingredients and seasonings are added), the sensor assembly 2 can weigh in time and accurately; the electromagnetic coil 6 is connected to the microcrystalline panel 4 through the coil positioning block 7. When the weight of the main ingredients, auxiliary ingredients and seasonings in the cooker changes, the vertical height of the microcrystalline panel 4 will change, and the electromagnetic coil 6 can rise and fall with the microcrystalline panel 4 without affecting the weighing of the sensor assembly 2.

[0039] like Figures 4 to 8As shown, the top plate assembly 1 includes a top plate body 11 and a plurality of top plate connectors 12, and the top plate connectors 12 are respectively positioned through positioning pin holes and then welded to the back of the top plate body 11. Specifically, the top plate connector 12 includes a top plate mounting portion 121, a top plate connecting portion 122, and two connecting portions 123 respectively connected between the top plate mounting portion 121 and the top plate connecting portion 122, and the top plate mounting portion 121 is connected to the back of the top plate body 11.

[0040] On the basis of the above structure, a plurality of reinforcing ribs (not shown) are provided on the top plate assembly 1, so as to improve the strength of the top plate assembly 1, reduce the probability and degree of deformation, and extend the service life of the whole machine.

[0041] like Fig. 9 and Fig.10 As shown, the sensor assembly 2 includes a sensor body 21 and a cushion block 22. One end of the sensor body 21 is inserted into the top plate connector 12 (such as Figure 5 ) and connected to the top plate connecting portion 122 (as shown Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown), the other end of the sensor body 21 is connected to the cushion block 22, and the cushion block 22 is connected to the bottom shell component 3 (as shown Figure 3 Specifically, the whole machine is assembled, and screws and other connecting parts pass through the bottom shell assembly 3 from bottom to top, and the cushion block 22 and the bottom shell assembly 3 are fixed together by the connecting parts.

[0042] Components such as wires and chips are arranged in the middle convex bulge of the sensor body 21. In order to prevent the components such as wires and chips from being squeezed and damaged, the thickness of the sensor body 21 is smaller than the distance between the top plate mounting portion 121 and the top plate connecting portion 122. That is, the top plate connecting member 12 separates a limited space for the sensor body 21 to prevent surrounding components from abutting against the middle convex bulge of the sensor body 21, which is safer to use.

[0043] The top plate assembly 1 of the cooking device is fixedly connected to the sensor body 21 through the top plate connector 12. The connection structure is stable, which prevents the surrounding structure from squeezing the sensor body 21, has high measurement accuracy, and extends the service life of the sensor assembly 2. It is easy to disassemble and assemble, and has high production efficiency. The sensor body 21 can timely and accurately measure the changes in the weight of materials in the cooker, and the amount of cooking main ingredients, auxiliary ingredients and seasonings is more controlled, which improves the digitization and standardization of the cooking process, reduces the difficulty of cooking, improves the cooking quality, and makes the cooked dishes more delicious.

[0044] Based on the above structure, the specific number of sensor components 2 is not limited and can be determined according to the volume of the cooking device and the requirements for measurement accuracy. Two, three and four groups of sensor components 2 are the most common. Figure 4As shown, three sets of sensor components 2 are arranged in the cooking device, and the three sets of sensor components 2 are respectively located at the three vertices of an isosceles triangle. The microcrystalline panel 4 and other structures are more stable, which prevents the microcrystalline panel 4 from warping and deformation, and prolongs the service life of the cooking device; it has high cost performance and good user experience; collecting gravity data can reduce tolerance accumulation and improve data accuracy.

[0045] like Figures 6 to 8 As shown, the top plate mounting portion 121, a connecting portion 123, the top plate connecting portion 122 and another connecting portion 123 are sequentially connected to form a square tube. The square tube has a regular structure, is easy to process and has high production efficiency; the top plate mounting portion 121 and the top plate connecting portion 122 are both flat, and the connection with the top plate body 11 and the connection with the sensor body 21 are more stable, avoiding accidental shaking at the connection.

[0046] When three sets of sensor assemblies 2 are provided, at least one top plate connector 12 is extended along the long side of the cooking device. In order to make the top plate connector 12 also have the function of improving the strength of the top plate body 11, the length of the top plate mounting portion 121 of the top plate connector 12 is greater than the height of the connecting portion 123. That is, the top plate connector 12 is in the shape of a long tube, which is equivalent to installing a reinforcing rib at the bottom of the top plate body 11.

[0047] In order to improve the utilization rate of the internal space of the cooking device, the connection part 123 of at least one top plate connection member 12 is trapezoidal, and the end of the connection part 123 connected to the top plate mounting part 121 is wider than the end connected to the top plate connection part 122. The end connected to the top plate mounting part 121 is wider, so as to ensure that the area of ​​the top plate mounting part 121 is large enough and the connection structure between the top plate connection member 12 and the top plate body 11 is stable enough; the end connected to the top plate connection part 122 is narrower, and the area of ​​the top plate connection part 122 is reduced without affecting the stable connection of the sensor body 21, so as to avoid the top plate connection part 122 squeezing the middle convex bulge of the sensor body 21, which is safer to use.

[0048] like Fig. 9 and Fig.10 As shown, the pad 22 includes a step-shaped avoidance portion 221 and a fixing portion 222. The other end of the sensor body 21 is connected to the fixing portion 222 by a bolt 23 and a gasket 24, and a gap is formed between the sensor body 21 and the avoidance portion 221. That is, the sensor body 21 is suspended, ensuring that the middle convex bulge of the sensor body 21 will not be squeezed, thereby extending the service life of the sensor body 21. The sensor body 21 will only receive forces in the vertical direction, avoiding forces in other directions from interfering with the sensor body 21, thereby improving the accuracy of the weighing data.

[0049] like Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, after the whole machine is assembled, bolts 23 and other connecting parts are used to pass through the bottom shell assembly 3 and are respectively connected to the avoidance portion 221 and the fixing portion 222. The effective length of the threaded connection of the bolt 23 is longer and the connection is more stable; it is easy to disassemble and assemble, and the assembly and after-sales maintenance and disassembly process are more efficient.

[0050] like Fig. 9 and Fig.10 As shown, a U-shaped limiting groove 223 is formed at the top of the fixing portion 222, and the other end of the sensor body 21 is embedded in the limiting groove 223. The limiting groove 223 wraps the other end of the sensor body 21 from three directions to prevent the sensor body 21 from swinging, improve the structural stability, and make the data collection of the sensor body 21 more accurate.

[0051] On the basis of the above structure, a limiting block 224 is arranged on the inner wall surface of the limiting groove 223, and the limiting block 224 abuts against the outer side surface of the other end of the sensor body 21. The limiting block 224 can play a guiding role, and the other end of the sensor body 21 can be installed into the limiting groove 223 along the limiting block 224, and the installation efficiency is high; the limiting block 224 can play a better limiting role on the other end of the sensor body 21, prevent the sensor body 21 from swinging, and the weighing accuracy is higher.

[0052] Note that the above are only preferred embodiments of the present invention and the technical principles used. Those skilled in the art will understand that the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments described herein, and that various obvious changes, readjustments and substitutions can be made by those skilled in the art without departing from the scope of protection of the present invention. Therefore, although the present invention is described in more detail through the above embodiments, the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments, but may include more other equivalent embodiments without departing from the concept of the present invention, and the scope of the present invention is determined by the scope of the appended claims.
