[0046] In the embodiment of the utility model, the support panel 1 protrudes from the mounting panel 4, which can remind the user to place the cookware 7 on the support panel 1, that is, directly above the heating coil 61, thereby reducing the possibility of the cookware 7 being placed off-center and playing a fool-proof role.

[0047] In the embodiment of the utility model, the top wall of the support panel 1 is provided with a support assembly 2 for supporting the cookware 7, which improves the stability of the panel assembly 100 in supporting the cookware 7 and improves the reliability of the panel assembly 100.

[0048] Furthermore, in the embodiment of the utility model, the panel assembly 100 as a whole is suitable for being assembled on the base 3 of the cooking device 200 through the mounting panel 4, thereby improving the assembly efficiency of the cooking device 200.

[0049] According to the panel assembly 100 of the cooking device 200 of the embodiment of the utility model, the heating coil 61 can be arranged in the accommodating cavity 18, which reduces the distance between the heating coil 61 and the pot 7, and effectively improves the heating effect of the cooking device 200 on the pot 7; the supporting panel 1 protrudes from the mounting panel 4, which reduces the situation where the pot 7 is placed off-center; the top wall of the supporting panel 1 is provided with a supporting assembly 2, which improves the stability of the panel assembly 100 in supporting the pot 7; the panel assembly 100 as a whole is suitable for being assembled on the base 3 of the cooking device 200 through the mounting panel 4, which improves the assembly efficiency of the cooking device 200.

[0050] Reference Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 In some embodiments, a groove 13 is provided on the top wall of the supporting panel 1 , and the supporting assembly 2 includes a plurality of first supporting members 21 , which are arranged around the groove 13 .

[0051] Through the above technical solution, the support panel 1 is suitable for supporting the cookware 7 through the plurality of first support members 21, thereby ensuring the stability of the cookware 7, and the plurality of first support members 21 are arranged around the groove 13, and the groove 13 is suitable for forming an air layer between the cookware 7 and the support panel 1. The heat transfer of the cookware 7 toward the panel assembly 100 is improved, the waste of heat energy is reduced, the heat dissipation rate of the panel assembly 100 is improved, and the risk of damage to the panel assembly 100 is reduced.

[0052] Reference Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 In some embodiments, the top wall of the supporting panel 1 includes a first plane 11 and a second plane 12 , the first plane 11 is disposed in the groove 13 , the second plane 12 is disposed around the groove 13 , and the first plane 11 is lower than the second plane 12 .

[0053] The support assembly 2 is used to support the cookware 7. At least a portion of the support assembly 2 is arranged on the second plane 12. The support assembly 2 includes a first support surface 211 and a second support surface 212. The first support surface 211 is located on the side of the second support surface 212 away from the first plane 11. The first support surface 211 extends in a horizontal direction, and the second support surface 212 extends downward in a direction away from the first support surface 211.

[0054] The various pots 7 can be divided into flat-bottomed pots 7 and concave-bottomed pots 72 according to the shape of the bottom. The bottom wall of the flat-bottomed pot 7 is flat, and the bottom wall of the concave-bottomed pot 72 is at least partially concave relative to the flat-bottomed pot 7. The concave-bottomed pot 72 can be a round-bottomed pot 7, a conical-bottomed pot 7 or a pot 7 of another shape that is at least partially concave.

[0055] In the above technical solution, the first support surface 211 of the support assembly 2 extends in the horizontal direction. When the user uses the flat-bottomed pan 7, the flat-bottomed pan 7 is placed on the panel assembly 100, and the first support surface 211 contacts the flat bottom wall of the flat-bottomed pan 7 to support the flat-bottomed pan 7. The first plane 11 is lower than the first support surface 211, so an air layer is formed between the first plane 11 and the flat-bottomed pan 7, which improves the heat transfer of the pan 7 toward the panel assembly 100, reduces the waste of heat energy, and reduces the risk of damage to the panel assembly 100.

[0056] The first plane 11 is lower than the second plane 12, so that the panel assembly 100 is more easily adapted to the concave bottom pot 72, and the second support surface 212 of the support assembly 2 extends downwardly at a side facing the first plane 11. Figure 6 , Figure 7 and Fig.15 When the user uses the concave bottom cookware 72 , the concave bottom cookware 72 is placed on the panel assembly 100 , and at least part of the concave bottom cookware 72 is concave to the lower side of the first supporting surface 211 , and the second supporting surface 212 is suitable for supporting the concave bottom wall of the concave bottom cookware 72 .

[0057] If the concave bottom cookware 72 is concave at a shallow depth, an air layer is formed between the first plane 11 and the concave bottom cookware 72, thereby improving the heat transfer of the cookware 7 toward the panel assembly 100 and reducing the waste of heat energy; if the concave bottom cookware 72 is concave at a deep depth, the concave bottom cookware 72 contacts the first plane 11, that is, the first plane 11 also supports the concave bottom cookware 72, thereby further improving the stability of the concave bottom cookware 72.

[0058] In the embodiment of the utility model, through the cooperation of the first supporting surface 211 and the second supporting surface 212, the panel assembly 100 can not only support the flat-bottomed cookware 7, but also support a variety of different types of concave-bottomed cookware 72, thereby increasing the application range of the cooking device 200; and through the first plane 11 being lower than the second plane 12, the panel assembly 100 can be more adapted to the concave-bottomed cookware 72, and an air layer can be formed between the cookware 7 and the panel assembly 100, thereby improving the heat transfer of the cookware 7 toward the panel assembly 100, reducing the waste of heat energy, and reducing the risk of damage to the panel assembly 100.

[0059] In some embodiments, the support assembly 2 includes a first support member 21 protruding from the support panel 1 , and the first support member 21 defines a first support surface 211 and a second support surface 212 .

[0060] By protruding the first support member 21 from the support panel 1, the heights of the first support surface 211 and the second support surface 212 are further raised, thereby increasing the air layer between the cookware 7 and the panel assembly 100, and further improving the heat transfer of the cookware 7 toward the panel assembly 100.

[0061] In some embodiments, the first support surface 211 is formed as a plane, and the second support surface 212 is connected to the inner side of the first support surface 211. In the embodiment of the utility model, the first support surface 211 is suitable for surface contact with the flat-bottomed pan, which ensures the stability of the flat-bottomed pan and reduces the risk of the flat-bottomed pan sliding. In other embodiments, the first support surface 211 can also be in line contact with the flat-bottomed pan, reducing the contact area between the flat-bottomed pan and the panel assembly 100, reducing the heat of the pan 7 directed to the panel assembly 100, and improving the utilization rate of the heat.

[0062] Reference Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 In some specific embodiments, the first support member 21 is formed into a long strip extending toward the central area of ​​the first plane 11, and the first support surface 211 and the second support surface 212 are arranged in the length direction of the first support member 21. In the embodiment of the utility model, the first support surface 211 extends in a direction away from the central area of ​​the first plane 11, so that the first support surface 211 can support a larger pan, further expanding the application range of the cooking device 200.

[0063] In some embodiments, a portion of the first support member 21 is located on the first plane 11 and another portion is located on the second plane 12 , thereby improving the overall structural strength of the panel assembly 100 .

[0064] In some specific embodiments, the portion of the first support member 21 where the first support surface 211 is provided extends from the second plane 12 to the first plane 11 .

[0065] Reference Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 6In the embodiment of the utility model, the first support surface 211 protrudes from the second plane 12 in the horizontal direction, and the second support surface 212 is located on the side of the first support surface 211 away from the second plane 12. When the second support surface 212 supports the concave bottom pot 72, there is a gap between the concave bottom pot 72 and the second plane 12 in the horizontal direction, which further increases the air layer between the concave bottom pot 72 and the panel assembly 100, further improves the heat transfer of the pot 7 toward the panel assembly 100, and reduces the risk of damage to the panel assembly 100. In addition, the first support surface 211 extends to the first plane 11, so that the first support surface 211 can also support smaller flat-bottom pots, further increasing the application range of the cooking device 200.

[0066] In some specific embodiments, the first supporting surface 211 is higher than the second plane 12. When the first supporting surface 211 supports the cookware 7, an air layer is formed between the cookware 7 and the second plane 12 in the vertical direction, which further improves the heat transfer of the cookware 7 toward the panel assembly 100 and reduces the risk of damage to the panel assembly 100.

[0067] Reference Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 In some embodiments, there are multiple first support members 21 and they are arranged around the first plane 11. The cookware 7 is supported by multiple first support members 21, which ensures the stability of the cookware 7. The gap between two adjacent first support members 21 increases the air layer between the cookware 7 and the supporting panel 1, further improving the heat transfer of the cookware 7 toward the panel assembly 100.

[0068] In some specific embodiments, four first support members 21 are provided, and the four first support members 21 are evenly distributed around the first plane 11. In some other embodiments, the number of the first support members 21 can also be three, five, six, or other numbers, and the present invention is not limited thereto. In some other embodiments, the number of the first support member 21 can also be one, and the first support member 21 is configured as an annular structure that is externally mounted on the first plane 11.

[0069] In the above solutions, the first support surface 211 is a plane. In other embodiments, the first support member 21 may be provided with support ribs protruding from the first support member 21 and extending horizontally to define the first support surface 211. In the embodiment of the utility model, the first support member 21 may support the flat-bottomed pan through the support ribs, thereby reducing the contact area between the first support member 21 and the flat-bottomed pan, and further improving the heat transfer of the pan 7 toward the panel assembly 100.

[0070] In some embodiments, the second supporting surface 212 is formed as an arc-shaped surface, which is suitable for matching the curvature of the bottom wall of the concave bottom cookware 72. When the second supporting surface 212 supports the bottom wall of the concave bottom cookware 72, the arc-shaped surface can fit with the bottom wall of the concave bottom cookware 72, thereby effectively improving the stability of the support of the second supporting surface 212.

[0071] Reference Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 In other embodiments, the second supporting surface 212 is formed as an inclined surface. On the one hand, the second supporting surface 212 in the embodiment of the utility model is easy to form, which reduces the processing cost of the first supporting member 21; on the other hand, the inclined surface can support more shapes of concave bottom pots 72, further expanding the application range of the cooking device 200.

[0072] In some other embodiments, the first support member 21 is provided with oblique ribs protruding therefrom and extending obliquely downward to define the second support surface 212. In the embodiment of the utility model, the first support member 21 can support the concave bottom pot 72 through the oblique ribs, reducing the contact area between the first support member 21 and the concave bottom pot 72, and further improving the heat transfer of the pot 7 toward the panel assembly 100.

[0073] Reference Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 In some embodiments, the second supporting surface 212 extends into the groove 13 , increasing the area of ​​the second supporting surface 212 , so that the second supporting surface 212 can support more types of concave-bottom pots 72 , thereby expanding the application range of the cooking device 200 .

[0074] Reference Figure 5 In some embodiments, the first support member 21 is integrally formed with the support panel 1 , which reduces the cost of the panel assembly 100 and improves the overall structural strength of the panel assembly 100 .

[0075] Reference Figure 4 , Figure 6 and Figure 7 In other embodiments, a first metal temperature-conducting member 213 is provided at the connection between the first supporting surface 211 and the second supporting surface 212. The first temperature-conducting member 213 is adapted to abut against the pot 7 and the temperature-measuring structure 9, respectively. When the cooking device 200 is working, the temperature-measuring structure 9 of the cooking device 200 is adapted to detect the temperature of the pot 7 through the first temperature-conducting member 213, so that the cooking device 200 can control the power of the heating coil 61, ensure the cooking effect of the cooking device 200, and improve the reliability of the cooking device 200.

[0076] In addition, the support panel 1 contacts the cookware 7 through the first heat conducting member 213 , which reduces the contact area between the support panel 1 and the cookware 7 , reduces the risk of the support panel 1 being scalded by the cookware 7 , and extends the service life of the panel assembly 100 .

[0077] It should be noted that, in other embodiments, the material of the first thermal conductive member 213 may also be glass or ceramic, or other thermal conductive materials.

[0078] Reference Figure 4 , Figure 6 and Figure 7 In some specific embodiments, the support panel 1 is provided with a first avoidance hole 15 for avoiding the temperature measuring structure 9 , and the temperature measuring structure 9 passes through the first avoidance hole 15 to abut against the first temperature conducting member 213 .

[0079] In the above technical solution, the temperature measuring structure 9 passes through the first avoidance hole 15 and stops at the first temperature conducting member 213, thereby avoiding contact between the temperature measuring structure 9 and the supporting panel 1, avoiding the influence of the temperature of the supporting panel 1 on the temperature measuring structure 9, and improving the accuracy of the temperature measuring structure 9.

[0080] Reference Figure 4 , Figure 6 and Figure 7 In some further embodiments, the first heat conducting member 213 covers the first avoidance hole 15 .

[0081] Through the above technical solution, the risk of water stains, oil stains and other substances entering the lower side of the panel assembly 100 through the first avoidance hole 15 is reduced, and the service life of the cooking device 200 is extended.

[0082] Reference Figure 4 , Figure 6 and Figure 7 In some specific embodiments, the support panel 1 is provided with a first mounting groove 151, and the first mounting groove 151 is at least partially arranged around the first avoidance hole 15, and the first heat conducting member 213 is provided with a first annular flange 2131, and the first flange 2131 is inserted into the first mounting groove 151.

[0083] Through the above technical solution, not only the stability of the connection between the first heat conducting member 213 and the supporting panel 1 is improved, but also the possibility of water stains, oil stains and other substances passing through the first avoidance hole 15 is further reduced.

[0084] In some specific embodiments, the first heat conducting member 213 is connected to the support panel 1 by injection molding; in some other embodiments, the first heat conducting member 213 and the support panel 1 may also be connected by bonding, snapping, screwing, etc., and the present invention is not limited to this.

[0085] Reference Figure 4 , Figure 6and Figure 7 In some embodiments, the support assembly 2 further includes a second support member 22 disposed in the middle of the groove 13 , and the second support member 22 is disposed on the first plane 11 , and the first plane 11 is suitable for supporting the cookware 7 through the second support member 22 .

[0086] Through the above technical solution, the pot 7 is prevented from directly contacting the first plane 11, and the risk of the support panel 1 being scalded is reduced. In some specific embodiments, the second support member 22 is constructed of a metal material, which is easy to process and reduces the cost. In other embodiments, the second support member 22 can also be constructed of a glass material or a ceramic material, and the utility model is not limited to this.

[0087] In some embodiments, the top surface of the second support member 22 is formed as a plane, so that the second support surface 212 can be used to support pots 7 of various shapes, thereby increasing the application range of the cooking device 200.

[0088] In some embodiments, the second support member 22 is disposed on the first plane 11, and the top surface of the second support member 22 is higher than the top surface of the first plane 11, further reducing the possibility of the pot 7 contacting the first plane 11 and further reducing the risk of the support panel 1 being scalded.

[0089] Reference Figure 4 , Figure 7 and Figure 8 In some embodiments, the maximum height difference between the top surface of the second support member 22 and the first support surface 211 is C, and C satisfies: 0<C≤14mm.

[0090] If C=0, it will affect the second support surface 212 supporting the concave bottom pot 72. The larger the value of C, the more types of concave bottom pots 72 that the panel assembly 100 can support. However, because the heating coil 61 for heating the pot 7 in the cooking device 200 is arranged below the panel assembly 100, if C>14mm, when the first support surface 211 supports the pot 7, the distance between the pot 7 and the heating coil 61 is too large, affecting the heating effect of the pot 7. Therefore, in the embodiment of the utility model, C satisfies: 0<C≤14mm, so that the panel assembly 100 of the utility model can be applied to flat-bottomed pots and various concave bottom pots 72, while also ensuring the heating effect of the cooking device 200 on the pot 7.
