In the embodiment of the utility model, the first contact surface 72 extends in a direction away from the central area of ​​the support panel 1, so that the first contact surface 72 can support a larger pan body, further expanding the application range of the cooking device 200.

[0103] Reference Figure 4 , Fig.11 and Fig.12 In some further embodiments, the connection between the first contact surface 72 and the second contact surface 73 is defined as a transition surface 74, and the outer peripheral wall of the transition surface 74 protrudes from the outer peripheral wall of the first contact surface 72 and the outer peripheral wall of the second contact surface 73, thereby enhancing the structural strength of the first contact member 71.

[0104] The bottom side of the transition surface 74 is suitable for abutting against the temperature measuring component 6 of the cooking device 200. The shape and size of the transition surface 74 need to be compatible with the temperature measuring component 6. In the embodiment of the utility model, the widths of the first contact surface 72 and the second contact surface 73 are both smaller than the transition surface 74, which reduces the contact area between the support assembly 7 and the pot body, reduces the heat transferred from the pot body to the panel assembly 100, and reduces the risk of damage to the cooking device 200.

[0105] The transition surface 74 is arranged between the first contact surface 72 and the second contact surface 73, and the temperature measuring component 6 stops at the bottom side of the transition surface 74. Regardless of whether the panel assembly 100 supports the pot body through the first contact surface 72 or the second contact surface 73, the cooking equipment 200 can detect more accurate results, thereby improving the accuracy of temperature measurement by the temperature measuring component 6.

[0123] Reference Fig.11 In some embodiments, the second contact surface 73 extends into the first groove 126, increasing the area of ​​the second contact surface 73, so that the second contact surface 73 can support more types of concave pots, expanding the application range of the cooking device 200.

[0124] Reference Fig.11 In some embodiments, a first groove 126 is provided on the top wall of the support panel 1, a second protrusion 127 is provided in the first groove 126, and a top wall of the second protrusion 127 is lower than the second contact surface 73. The second protrusion 127 enhances the overall structural strength of the panel assembly 100.

[0125] In some further embodiments, the shape of the inner peripheral wall of the first groove 126 is different from the shape of the outer peripheral wall of the second protrusion 127 to reduce the concentrated stress of the panel assembly 100 .

[0126] In addition, the shape of the inner circumferential wall of the first groove 126 is different from the shape of the outer circumferential wall of the second protrusion 127, which forms a gap between the inner circumferential wall of the first groove 126 and the outer circumferential wall of the second protrusion 127, further increasing the air layer between the pot body and the panel assembly 100, further improving the heat transfer from the pot body to the panel assembly 100, and reducing the risk of damage to the panel assembly 100.

[0128] Reference Fig.11 In some embodiments, the panel assembly 100 further includes: a second support member 75, the second support member 75 is disposed on the support panel 1, the second contact surface 73 is located on a side of the second support member 75 close to the outer periphery of the support panel 1, the thermal stability of the second support member 75 is higher than that of the support panel 1, and the top surface of the second support member 75 protrudes from the support panel 1. Specifically, the second support member 75 is disposed on the top of the second protrusion 127.

[0131] Reference Fig.11 and Fig.15 In some embodiments, the maximum height difference between the top surface of the second support member 75 and the first contact surface 72 is C, and C satisfies: 0<C≤14mm.

[0132] If C=0, it will affect the second contact surface 73 supporting the concave pot body. The larger the value of C, the more types of concave pot bodies that the panel assembly 100 can support. However, because the heating coil 2 for heating the pot body in the cooking device 200 is arranged below the panel assembly 100, if C>14mm, when the first contact surface 72 supports the pot body, the distance between the pot body and the heating coil 2 is too large, affecting the heating effect of the pot body.
