When the combination of technical solutions is contradictory or cannot be implemented, it should be deemed that such a combination of technical solutions does not exist and is not within the scope of protection required by the present utility model.

[0026] The present embodiment provides a steamer that performs internal circulation. The steamer can perform internal circulation processing of steam. While performing internal circulation of the steam, it can also perform secondary heating of the steam so that the steam can be heated up quickly, thereby achieving energy saving and rapid cooking of food.

[0027] Combination Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the steamer of this embodiment includes a box body 10 and a circulation cavity 20 located in the box body 10. The circulation cavity 20 can heat and circulate the steam so that the steam can be heated quickly.

[0028] In this embodiment, a first cavity 11 and a second cavity 12 are provided in the box body 10. A carrier plate 111 is provided in the first cavity 11, and a water tank 121 is provided in the second cavity 12. The water tank 121 generates steam and introduces the steam into the first cavity 11. In actual use, the carrier plate 111 is used to place food, and the food is placed in the first cavity 11 for steam heating. When the steam temperature in the first cavity 11 is insufficient, steam can be generated by the water tank 121 and introduced into the first cavity 11 to supplement the steam.

[0029] Specifically, in this embodiment, a heater 30 is provided in the water tank 121 to generate steam, and a temperature sensor 70 is provided in the first cavity 11 to monitor the temperature in the first cavity 11. The presence of the heater 30 can prepare steam in the water tank 121, and the temperature sensor 70 can monitor the steam temperature in the first cavity 11 in real time. When the steam temperature is insufficient, the steam generated in the water tank 121 will be introduced into the first cavity 11.

[0030] Combination Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the circulation cavity 20 is arranged between the first cavity 11 and the second cavity 12. A heating element 21 and a circulator 22 are arranged in the circulation cavity 20. The heating element 21 heats the steam flowing through the circulation cavity 20, and the circulator 22 circulates the steam between the circulation cavity 20 and the first cavity 11. The circulator 22 can drive the steam to circulate between the circulation cavity 20 and the first cavity 11, and the heating element 21 located in the circulation cavity 20 can further heat the steam, and then the circulator 22 introduces the steam into the first cavity 11, thereby meeting the use requirements of the steamer.

[0031] Specifically, the circulator 22 of this embodiment is a fan, and the number of circulators 22 is at least one, and the heating element 21 is a heating tube, the number of heating elements 21 is several and evenly distributed in the circulation cavity 20, and multiple heating elements 21 can evenly heat the steam to increase the temperature of the steam.

[0032] In this embodiment, the air outlet 1211 of the water tank 121 is connected to the circulation cavity 20, and a valve 40 is provided at the position of the air outlet 1211 to control the opening and closing of the air outlet 1211. When it is necessary to replenish the steam in the first cavity 11, the valve 40 is opened, and the steam enters the first cavity 11 from the air outlet 1211 of the water tank 121 to complete the steam replenishment operation. When it is not necessary to replenish the steam, the valve 40 can be closed.

[0033] Furthermore, in the present embodiment, a top opening 50 and a bottom opening 60 are provided on the side of the first cavity 11. The steam enters the circulation cavity 20 through the top opening 50 and enters the first cavity 11 through the bottom opening 60. With the cooperation of the top opening 50 and the bottom opening 60, the steam circulates between the circulation cavity 20 and the first cavity 11. The circulator 22 is located at the bottom of the circulation cavity 20 and corresponds to the position of the bottom opening 60 to introduce the steam into the first cavity 11.

[0034] In actual use of the steamer of this embodiment, the steam will circulate between the circulation cavity 20 and the first cavity 11 under the action of the circulator 22. When the steam enters the circulation cavity 20, the heating element 21 heats the steam to achieve secondary heating of the steam, so that the steam is quickly heated up, thereby achieving energy saving and rapid cooking of food. When the steam in the first cavity 11 is insufficient, the water tank 121 in the second cavity 12 will generate steam. After the valve 40 is opened, the steam is introduced into the first cavity 11 to supplement the steam.

[0035] In summary, the steamer of the utility model can perform internal circulation processing of steam. While performing internal circulation of steam, it can also perform secondary heating of steam so that the steam can be heated up quickly, thereby achieving energy saving and rapid cooking of food. The presence of the water tank 121 can enable rapid production of steam through the heater 30 when the temperature in the first cavity 11 is insufficient, so as to replenish the steam in the first cavity 11 and increase the temperature in the first cavity 11 to meet the use requirements of the steamer.
