It should be noted that similar reference numerals and letters represent similar items in the following drawings, and therefore, once a certain item is defined in an accompanying drawing, it does not need to be further discussed in subsequent drawings.

[0030] like Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the present application provides a panel assembly of a cooking utensil, and an embodiment of the panel assembly of the cooking utensil includes: a circuit board 10, a panel 20, a knob 30 and a translucent indicator sticker 40. An encoder 11 and a plurality of indicator lights 12 are provided on the circuit board 10, and a rotatable rotating rod 13 is provided on the encoder 11. The panel 20 is located on the side of the circuit board 10 where the indicator lights 12 are provided, and a first avoidance hole 21 for avoiding the rotating rod 13 is provided on the panel 20. The knob 30 is located on the side of the panel 20 away from the circuit board 10, and a plurality of indicator lights 12 are arranged around the outside of the knob 30. The knob 30 is connected to the rotating rod 13 and can drive the rotating rod 13 to rotate so that the cooking utensil can realize the cooking function. The translucent indicator sticker 40 is provided on the side of the panel 20 away from the circuit board 10, and a second avoidance hole 41 for avoiding the knob 30 is provided on the translucent indicator sticker 40. When the cooking appliance realizes the cooking function, unlike the mechanical knob, the duration is not strictly determined. The relative duration can be automatically adjusted according to the amount of food. For example, if it is set to 35 minutes, it may slightly exceed the 35 minutes of pressure holding time.

[0031] It should be noted that the circuit board 10 is preferably a PCB. In this embodiment, a cooking appliance with a pressure switch is used. The cooking appliance does not have a top temperature measurement and cannot realize different pressure controls for different functions. That is, the cooking appliance of this embodiment realizes cooking functions such as cooking rice, cooking porridge, and stewing soup. The pressure holding time corresponding to each cooking function is different. The pressure holding time is not fixed and has the ability to judge the amount, and can be automatically adjusted according to the amount of food in the pot.

[0032] Of course, in an embodiment not shown in the figure, the cooking appliance has a top temperature measurement, which can realize different pressure controls for different functions, that is, high-pressure cooking and low-pressure cooking.

[0033] In this embodiment, the knob 30 can drive the rotating rod 13 to rotate 360 ​​degrees when it rotates freely 360 degrees. The light-transmitting indicator sticker 40 is preferably adhered to the panel 20.

[0034] By applying the technical solution of this embodiment, since the panel 20 is provided with the light-transmitting indicator sticker 40, the light-transmitting indicator sticker 40 can protect the panel, and the processing cost of the light-transmitting indicator sticker 40 is lower than that of the transparent cover, therefore, the technical solution of this embodiment effectively solves the problem of high processing cost of the transparent cover in the related art. In addition, the light-transmitting indicator sticker 40 can block defects such as flow marks generated during the panel molding process, thereby improving the overall flatness of the panel assembly.

[0035] like Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, different time marks and different function marks are arranged on the light-transmitting indicator sticker 40. In this way, the above-mentioned different time marks and different function marks are all arranged on the light-transmitting indicator sticker, making the panel processing simpler and more convenient, and the cost is lower. Different time marks and different function marks are all arranged around the outside of the knob 30, and different time marks correspond to multiple indicator lights 12 one by one. When the knob 30 is rotated to any working gear, the indicator light 12 corresponding to the current working gear is turned on, and the current indicator light 12 illuminates the current time mark on the light-transmitting indicator sticker 40 through the panel 20, which can intuitively display the current time mark, and facilitate the user to observe and confirm the rotation position of the knob 30. Different time marks can be arranged in a regular manner from small to large as "0" ("off"), "5", "10", "15", "20", "25", "30", "35". The light-transmitting indicator sticker 40 is light-transmitting at the corresponding multiple time marks, and other areas are not light-transmitting.

[0036] In order to avoid the situation that the electric pressure cooker starts heating even without any operation after being plugged in, which may cause great safety hazards and confusion to users. If there is no separate power switch on the pot body, the power cord needs to be unplugged to stop heating. In the first embodiment, when the knob 30 is rotated counterclockwise to the working position of "0" ("off"), the cooking appliance can shut down or cancel the current heating operation, and the product will not start heating, reducing safety hazards and confusion.

[0037] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the panel assembly of the cooking utensil further includes a mounting plate 50, on the surface of which a first mounting cavity 51 and a second mounting cavity 52 arranged in the first mounting cavity 51 are arranged, the circuit board 10 and the panel 20 are both installed in the second mounting cavity 52, the light-transmitting indicator sticker 40 is attached to the first mounting cavity 51 and the panel 20, and the light-transmitting indicator sticker 40 covers the second mounting cavity 52. ​​In this way, the setting of the light-transmitting indicator sticker 40 fills the first mounting cavity 51, and there is no protrusion on the surface of the mounting plate 50, so that the surface of the mounting plate 50 is relatively flat as a whole. In addition, the light-transmitting indicator sticker 40 can block the second mounting cavity 52 to prevent water vapor from entering the second mounting cavity 52. ​​At the same time, the circuit board 10 and the panel 20 can also be protected.

[0038] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the knob 30 includes an end plate 31 and a surrounding plate 32 arranged at the edge of the end plate 31, the end plate 31 is connected to the rotating rod 13, and the surrounding plate 32 is located outside the first avoidance hole 21. A first retaining ring 23 is provided on the panel 20, and in the radial direction of the surrounding plate 32, the first retaining ring 23 is located between the outside of the first avoidance hole 21 and the inside of the surrounding plate 32. The first retaining ring 23 is provided to block the water located outside thereof, and prevent the water outside the first retaining ring 23 from entering the first avoidance hole 21.

[0039] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the panel 20 is also provided with a second retaining ring 24, and in the radial direction of the enclosure 32, the second retaining ring 24 is located between the outer side of the first avoidance hole 21 and the inner side of the first retaining ring 23. The second retaining ring 24 can block the water located outside thereof, and prevent the water outside the second retaining ring 24 from entering the first avoidance hole 21. In this way, after being blocked twice by the first retaining ring 23 and the second retaining ring 24, the water outside the first retaining ring 23 is effectively prevented from entering the first avoidance hole 21.

[0040] Specifically, the height of the second retaining ring 24 along the axial direction thereof is lower than or equal to the height of the first retaining ring 23 along the axial direction thereof.

[0041] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the panel 20 is provided with a plurality of third avoidance holes 22 for avoiding the plurality of indicator lights 12, and the light-transmitting indicator sticker 40 covers all the third avoidance holes 22. The light-transmitting indicator sticker 40 covers all the third avoidance holes 22, and blocks all the third avoidance holes 22 on the panel 20 to prevent water or debris outside the cooking utensil from entering the third avoidance holes 22.

[0042] The panel assembly of the cooking appliance further includes a buzzer connected to the circuit board 10. When the knob 30 is rotated to any working gear, the indicator light 12 corresponding to the current working gear lights up, and the buzzer emits a sound to remind the user, so that the user knows that the cooking appliance is executing the cooking mode corresponding to the current working gear. In addition, the indicator light and the reminder sound are provided to complement the user's vision and hearing, which is convenient for the elderly and can also take into account ordinary users.

[0043] In this embodiment, the indicator light and the prompt sound are provided so that the diameter of the outer ring of the knob 30 can be designed to be larger, which provides a better hand feel.

[0044] The inventors found that since the mechanical electric pressure cooker is purely controlled by hardware circuits, the cost of each component is high. The insulation function and bottom temperature limit protection function realized by the mechanical electric pressure cooker require two temperature controllers with different temperature limits, which are expensive. In addition, a temperature controller can only limit the protection control of one temperature point. If more temperature points need to be protected, the number of temperature controllers required will also need to increase accordingly, which will greatly increase the control cost. In addition, the connection between the temperature controllers requires a large current, so the wire diameter will be thicker and the voltage resistance level will be higher.

[0045] In order to solve the above problems, in this embodiment, a power board is provided in the cooking appliance, and the panel assembly of the cooking appliance also includes a thermistor temperature sensor connected to the power board. The thermistor temperature sensor can control any temperature between -40 degrees and 200 degrees, and the cost of a thermistor temperature sensor is lower than the cost of a temperature controller discovered by the inventor.

[0046] Of course, in an embodiment not shown in the figures, the panel assembly of the cooking appliance further includes a thermistor temperature sensor connected to the circuit board.

[0047] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, in order to facilitate the installation of the knob 30 on the panel 20 , an anti-dropping clamp 33 is provided on the knob 30 . The anti-dropping clamp 33 passes through the first avoidance hole 21 and is clamped on the side of the panel 20 facing the circuit board 10 .

[0048] Specifically, the anti-dropping clamp 33 includes a plurality of hooks spaced apart from each other, and the hook heads of the plurality of hooks pass through the first avoidance holes 21 and are clamped on a side of the panel 20 facing the circuit board 10 .

[0049] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the knob 30 includes an end plate 31 and a surrounding plate 32 arranged around the edge of the end plate 31. In order to connect the knob 30 with the rotating rod 13 and drive the rotating rod 13 to rotate, the knob 30 also includes a driving column 34 arranged on the end plate 31 and located on the inner side of the surrounding plate 32. The driving column 34 is inserted into the first avoidance hole 21 and connected to the rotating rod 13. In order to facilitate processing and reduce production costs, the outer side of the surrounding plate 32 is the operating surface, and the surface of the end plate 31 facing away from the circuit board 10 is the non-marking surface.

[0050] In this embodiment, a D-shaped hole is provided on the driving column 34, and the rotating rod 13 has a D-shaped section passing through the D-shaped hole. In this way, the driving column 34 drives the rotating rod 13 to rotate together.

[0051] In this embodiment, a heat preservation indicator light is also provided on the circuit board 10, a fourth avoidance hole for avoiding the heat preservation indicator light is also provided on the panel 20, a light-transmitting indicator sticker 40 covers the fourth avoidance hole, and a heat preservation mark is also provided on the light-transmitting indicator sticker 40. A heat preservation switch is provided at the position of the circuit board 10 corresponding to the heat preservation mark, and a heat preservation button is provided at the portion of the panel 20 between the heat preservation mark and the heat preservation switch. When the heat preservation button is operated, the heat preservation switch is driven to control the heat preservation indicator light to light up, and the cooking utensil executes the heat preservation mode. In this process, the heat preservation indicator light can illuminate the light-transmitting indicator sticker 40 through the fourth avoidance hole, and the heat preservation indicator light can be directly noticed and observed, which is convenient for the user to observe and confirm the rotation position of the knob 30. In addition, the light-transmitting indicator sticker 40 covers the fourth avoidance hole, blocks the fourth avoidance hole on the panel 20, and prevents water or debris outside the cooking utensil from entering the fourth avoidance hole. The light-transmitting indicator sticker 40 is light-transmitting corresponding to the heat preservation mark, and other areas are not light-transmitting.

[0052] In the keep warm mode, the cooking appliance is generally kept warm for a long time, maintaining the temperature in the pot at 70 degrees Celsius, and the power is low-power intermittent heating.

[0053] In this embodiment, the circuit board 10 is also provided with a reservation switch and a plurality of reservation indicator lights. The panel 20 is also provided with a plurality of fifth avoidance holes for avoiding the plurality of reservation indicator lights, and the light-transmitting indicator sticker 40 covers all the fifth avoidance holes. The light-transmitting indicator sticker 40 is also provided with a reservation mark and different reservation time marks, and the different reservation time marks correspond to the plurality of reservation indicator lights one by one, and the reservation mark corresponds to the reservation switch. The panel 20 is provided with a reservation button at the portion between the reservation mark and the reservation switch. When the reservation button is operated, the reservation switch is driven to control the lighting of different reservation indicator lights, and the cooking utensil can execute different reservation times. In this process, the lighting of the reservation indicator light can illuminate the light-transmitting indicator sticker 40 through the fifth avoidance hole, and the reservation indicator light can be directly noticed and observed, which is convenient for the user to observe and confirm the rotation position of the knob 30. In addition, the light-transmitting indicator sticker 40 covers the setting of all the fifth avoidance holes, and blocks all the fifth avoidance holes on the panel 20 to prevent water or debris outside the cooking utensil from entering the fifth avoidance holes.

[0054] The present application also provides a cooking utensil, an embodiment of which includes a pot body, a cover body, and a panel assembly arranged on the pot body, wherein the panel assembly is the panel assembly of the above-mentioned cooking utensil. Since the panel assembly of the above-mentioned cooking utensil can solve the problem of high processing cost of the transparent cover in the related art, the cooking utensil including the panel assembly can solve the same technical problem. The cooking utensil is an electric pressure cooker, a steamer, an oven, or a multi-function cooker.

[0055] In an embodiment not shown in the figures, the panel assembly is disposed on the cover body.

[0056] In order to solve the problem of user safety, the cooking appliance also includes a power board and a lid opening and closing position detection device, the power board is arranged in the pot body, and the lid opening and closing position detection device includes a lid opening trigger and a sensing member that can sense and cooperate with the lid opening trigger. The sensing member is connected to the power board, the lid opening trigger is arranged on the cover body, and the sensing member is arranged on the pot body. When the cover body is closed on the pot body, the lid opening trigger and the sensing member sense and cooperate, and when the cover body is opened from the pot body, the lid opening trigger and the sensing member are disconnected.

[0057] The induction element is an electronic reed switch, which solves the problem of installing a micro switch on the middle plate of the cooking utensil and specially sets a through hole, and also avoids setting a protrusion, so that the middle plate of the cooking utensil is flat and can reduce the processing cost. The corresponding lid opening trigger element is a magnetic element.

[0058] Of course, in other embodiments, the sensing element is a micro switch, and the corresponding cover opening trigger element is a trigger rod.

[0059] The panel assembly is arranged on the outer shell of the pot body, the MCU controller is arranged on the power board, and the circuit board is connected to the power board and powered by the power board. A temperature sensing cup and a heating element are arranged in the pot body, and both the temperature sensing cup and the heating element are connected to the power board, and the heating element is preferably a heating plate or a heating wire. By rotating the knob, the digital signals of multiple working gears are transmitted to the MCU controller, and the MCU controller receives the digital signals and drives multiple indicator lights to light up, so that the user can be intuitively fed back the current operation. The MCU controller needs to be programmed, that is, different cooking times corresponding to different time identifiers are set by writing and burning multiple digital signals input by the encoder, which can be customized to meet the use requirements of the elderly or other groups in a targeted manner. Specifically, the MCU controller can judge the amount of rice water or food according to the heating temperature rise slope, and then adjust the pressure holding time of the electric pressure cooker. Thus, it brings users a product with intelligence and good controllability. This solves the limitation that the mechanical electric pressure cooker in the related art cannot be expanded because it is a pure circuit control structure and is not equipped with the MCU controller of the present application.
