Specifically, the electrical device 120 is disposed in the cooling channel, and another portion of the fan 2 is connected to the cooling channel.

[0057] like Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, in some embodiments, optionally, the dehumidification component 3 also includes: a valve body 32, which is arranged in the dehumidification channel 30, and is used to open or close the dehumidification channel 30; when the valve body 32 is in an open state, the fan 2 supplies air to the first cavity 10 through the dehumidification channel 30; when the valve body 32 is in a closed state, the fan 2 is disconnected from the first cavity 10.

[0058] In this embodiment, the dehumidification component 3 further includes a valve body 32, which is disposed in the dehumidification channel 30 and is used to open or close the dehumidification channel 30. When the valve body 32 is in an open state, the fan 2 supplies air to the first cavity 10 through the dehumidification channel 30, and the gas pressure in the first cavity 10 gradually increases, so that the airflow in the first cavity 10 is discharged from the exhaust hole 102, thereby achieving dehumidification in the first cavity 10 and reducing the humidity in the first cavity 10. When the valve body 32 is in a closed state, the dehumidification channel 30 is closed, and the fan 2 cannot supply air to the first cavity 10 through the dehumidification channel 30, and the dehumidification function is closed.

When the valve body 32 is in an open state, the first channel 302 is connected to the second channel 304 through the valve body 32, so that the fan 2 can send air into the first cavity 10 through the first channel 302, the valve body 32 and the second channel 304. When the airflow is continuously injected into the first cavity 10, the air pressure in the first cavity 10 gradually increases, and then the airflow is squeezed out of the exhaust hole 102, so that the moisture removal of the first cavity 10 is achieved. When the valve body 32 is in the closed state, the valve body 32 cuts off the airflow in the first channel 302 and the second channel 304, so that the airflow cannot flow from the first channel 302 to the second channel 304, and the airflow cannot flow from the second channel 304 to the first channel 302, thereby achieving the closure of the dehumidification channel 30, preventing the airflow in the first cavity 10 from passing through the second channel 304 into the second cavity 12, causing damage to the electrical device 120 in the second cavity 12.

[0064] Optionally, the first channel 302 includes an air guide cover.

[0067] In this embodiment, the dehumidification component 3 also includes a driving member 34, which is connected to the valve body 32, driving the valve body 32 to switch between an open state and a closed state, so that when the valve body 32 is in the open state, the dehumidification channel 30 is opened, and when in the closed state, the dehumidification channel 30 is closed.

[0068] Optionally, the cooking appliance further includes a control device, which is connected to the driving member 34 and is used to control the movement of the driving member 34 according to the cooking type to switch the state of the valve body 32.

[0072] In this embodiment, the valve body 32 includes a valve main body 320 and a valve core 326. The two ends of the valve main body 320 are connected to the first channel 302 and the second channel 304 respectively. The valve core 326 is arranged in the valve main body 320. The driving member 34 is used to drive the valve core 326 to switch between the first position and the second position.

Because the two spaces are independent and not connected, the connection between the first channel 302 and the second channel 304 is cut off, and the fan 2 cannot supply air to the first cavity 10, and the airflow in the first cavity 10 cannot enter the second cavity 12. Figure 4 As shown, when the valve core 326 is in the first position, the valve body 32 is in an open state, and the valve core 326 no longer divides the space in the valve body 320 into two independent spaces. The first channel 302 is connected to the second channel 304 through the valve body 320, so the fan 2 can supply air to the first cavity 10, realizing the dehumidification in the first cavity 10, wherein, Figure 4 The arrow in the mounting cavity 328 shows the flow direction of the airflow.

[0074] Optionally, the valve core 326 includes a connecting column and a rotating plate, a portion of the connecting column is located inside the valve body 320, and the other portion extends out of the valve body 320 to be connected to the driving member 34, and the rotating plate is arranged on two opposite sides of the valve core 326, and the driving member 34 drives the rotating plate to switch between the first position and the second position through the connecting column.

[0108] In this embodiment, the cooking utensil can be any one of a microwave oven, an oven, a steamer, a steam oven, a microwave oven, and an air fryer, so as to achieve various cooking methods such as baking, drying, and steaming of ingredients.

[0109] In specific applications, such as Figure 1 As shown, the dehumidification component 3 is mounted on the air guide bottom plate, and is connected to the first cavity 10 through an air guide tube (e.g., the second channel 304, which can be a silicone tube). By using the cross-flow fan for cooling the electrical compartment (e.g., the second cavity 12), the airflow blown by the cross-flow fan is injected into the first cavity 10 through the dehumidification component 3, and the moisture in the first cavity 10 is forcibly squeezed out from the exhaust hole 102, thereby realizing airflow exchange and achieving the purpose of exhausting moisture from the first cavity 10. The exhaust hole 102 is arranged obliquely above the first cavity 10.

[0110] like Figure 2 As shown, the dehumidification component 3 includes an air guide cover (e.g., the first channel 302), a rotating plate (e.g., a valve core 326), an upper cover of the dehumidification valve (e.g., a cover body 324), a valve seat 322, an AC motor (e.g., a driving member 34), a micro switch 36, a support plate 4, an air guide pipe (e.g., the second channel 304), etc. The rotating plate can rotate 360°. The support plate 4 is used to support and fix the crossflow fan, the air guide cover and the valve body 32. The air guide cover is used to guide the airflow of the crossflow fan. A cam structure (e.g., a trigger part 329) is provided on the rotating plate, which can trigger the micro switch 36, thereby realizing the switching of the on and off states of the valve body 32. The connecting rod structure of the rotating plate is connected to the AC motor, and the AC motor drives the rotating plate through the contoured hole shaft to realize the rotation of the rotating plate and limit it through the upper cover of the dehumidification valve. When dehumidification is required, the rotating plate rotates to the first position, so that the valve body 32 is connected to the air guide cover, and the air guide pipe is connected to the valve body 32, so that the air flow is blown into the first cavity 10.

[0111] like Figure 4 As shown, when the rotating plate rotates to be parallel to the air guide cover and the air duct, the dehumidification valve (such as the valve body 32) is in a conducting state, and the air flow can be blown into the first cavity 10 along the direction of the rotating plate. When dehumidification is not required, the rotating plate rotates 90°, thereby preventing the air flow from the air guide cover from reaching the air duct, thereby achieving flow interception.

[0112] The working process of the entire dehumidification component 3:

[0113] When the user selects a menu with a humidity control function, puts in the ingredients, and starts cooking. When the temperature of the first cavity 10 rises to the temperature set by the user, the program controls the dehumidification valve to operate, and the rotating plate is driven by the AC motor to rotate. Since the air duct is always connected to the air duct of the crossflow fan, the dehumidification valve is controlled to rotate to communicate with the air duct and the air duct to inject air into the first cavity 10. Specifically, when the rotating plate rotates to Figure 4 When the cooking program is in the on state shown, the micro switch 36 is triggered to stop the action. At this time, the airflow of the air guide cover is directly connected to the first cavity 10 through the air guide pipe, so that the airflow is blown into the first cavity 10. When the airflow is continuously injected into the first cavity 10, the air pressure in the first cavity 10 increases, so that the original moisture in the first cavity 10 is forcibly squeezed out from the exhaust hole 102, thereby achieving the purpose of reducing the humidity in the first cavity 10. When the cooking program runs to the end, the AC motor is started to drive the rotating plate to rotate 90°. At this time, the micro switch 36 is triggered to stop the action. At this time, the rotating plate completely isolates the air guide cover and the air guide pipe, thereby blocking the first cavity 10 from being connected to the cross-flow fan, and the dehumidification function is turned off. At the end of cooking, the user can open the door to take out the cooked food.
