[0045] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 According to the panel assembly 100 of the cooking device 200 of the embodiment of the utility model, it includes: a supporting panel 1 and a contact assembly 2, the supporting panel 1 is a bulk molded plastic part, the contact assembly 2 is formed as a heat-conducting material part, the thermal stability of the contact assembly 2 is higher than that of the supporting panel 1, and the contact assembly 2 is arranged on the supporting panel 1 to support the pot 3.

[0046] The support panel 1 is a bulk molded plastic part, which reduces the cost of the support panel 1. The bulk molded plastic material has good flame retardancy, anti-tracking, corrosion resistance and stain resistance, which effectively prolongs the service life of the support panel 1. The bulk molded plastic part also has precise size control and is easy to shape, which is conducive to improving the refinement of the product.

[0047] The contact component 2 has higher thermal stability than the support panel 1. The support panel 1 is suitable for supporting the cookware 3 through the contact component 2, avoiding direct contact between the cookware 3 and the support panel 1, thereby reducing the risk of the support panel 1 being scalded by the cookware 3 and extending the service life of the panel component 100.

[0048] The contact component 2 is a heat-conducting material, and the contact component 2 can abut against the temperature measuring component of the cooking device 200. When the cooking device 200 is working, the contact component 2 not only contacts the pot 3, but also contacts the temperature measuring component of the cooking device 200. The temperature measuring component detects the temperature of the pot 3 through the contact component 2, which facilitates the cooking device 200 to control its own working state and improve the heating effect of the cooking device 200. For example, the specific material of the contact component 2 can be metal, glass or ceramic, and can also be other heat-conducting materials.

[0049] Reference Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 According to the panel assembly 100 of the cooking device 200 of the embodiment of the utility model, the contact assembly 2 includes a first contact surface 22 and a second contact surface 23.

When the user uses the flat-bottomed pan 31, the flat-bottomed pan 31 is placed on the panel assembly 100, and the first contact surface 22 contacts the flat bottom wall of the flat-bottomed pan 31 to support the flat-bottomed pan 31. The first contact surface 22 is higher than the top surface of the support panel 1, so an air layer is formed between the support panel 1 and the flat-bottomed pan 31, which improves the heat transfer of the pan 3 toward the panel assembly 100, reduces the waste of heat energy, and reduces the risk of damage to the panel assembly 100.

[0052] The second contact surface 23 extends downwardly and obliquely in a direction away from the first contact surface 22. When a user uses the concave bottom cookware 32, the concave bottom cookware 32 is placed on the panel assembly 100, and at least a portion of the concave bottom cookware 32 is recessed to the lower side of the first contact surface 22. The second contact surface 23 is suitable for supporting the recessed bottom wall of the concave bottom cookware 32.

[0053] If the concave bottom cookware 32 is concave at a shallow depth, an air layer is formed between the support panel 1 and the concave bottom cookware 32, thereby improving the heat transfer of the cookware 3 toward the panel assembly 100 and reducing the waste of heat energy; if the concave bottom cookware 32 is concave at a deep depth, the concave bottom cookware 32 contacts the support panel 1, that is, the support panel 1 also supports the concave bottom cookware 32, thereby further improving the stability of the concave bottom cookware 32.

[0055] Reference Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 In some embodiments, the contact assembly 2 includes a plurality of first contact members 21 arranged at intervals, and each first contact member 21 is provided with the first contact surface 22 and the second contact surface 23 mentioned above.

[0056] In the embodiment of the utility model, the panel assembly 100 is suitable for supporting the cookware 3 through multiple first contact members 21, thereby ensuring the stability of the cookware 3, and the gap between two adjacent first contact members 21 increases the air layer between the cookware 3 and the supporting panel 1, further improving the heat transfer of the cookware 3 toward the panel assembly 100.

[0057] In some specific embodiments, four first contact members 21 are provided, and the four first contact members 21 are spaced and distributed around the central area of ​​the support panel 1. In other specific embodiments, the number of the first contact members 21 can also be three, five, six, or other numbers, and the utility model is not limited to this. In some other embodiments, the number of the first contact member 21 can also be one, and the first contact member 21 is constructed as an annular structure, the first contact surface 22 is provided at the top of the first contact member 21, and the second contact surface 23 is provided on the inner side of the first contact member 21.

[0058] Reference Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 In some embodiments, the first contact surface 22 is formed as a plane, and the second contact surface 23 is connected to the inner side of the first contact surface 22.

[0059] In some embodiments, the first contact member 21 is provided with support ribs protruding therefrom and extending horizontally to define the first contact surface 22. In the embodiment of the utility model, the first contact member 21 can support the flat-bottomed pan 31 through the support ribs, thereby reducing the contact area between the first contact member 21 and the flat-bottomed pan 31, and further improving the heat transfer of the pan 3 toward the panel assembly 100.

[0060] In some other embodiments, the first contact surface 22 can also be in line contact with the flat-bottomed pan 31, reducing the contact area between the flat-bottomed pan 31 and the panel assembly 100, reducing the heat of the pan 3 directed to the panel assembly 100, and improving the utilization rate of the heat. Specifically, the first contact member 21 includes a first inclined plane and a second inclined plane that intersect, and the top connection of the first inclined plane and the second inclined plane extends horizontally to define the first contact surface 22, and one of the first inclined plane and the second inclined plane defines the second contact surface 23. In the embodiment of the utility model, the top connection of the first inclined plane and the second inclined plane extends horizontally to define the first contact surface 22, and the first contact surface 22 is suitable for line contact with the pan 3, reducing the contact area between the first contact surface 22 and the pan 3, and further improving the heat transfer of the pan 3 toward the panel assembly 100.

[0061] Reference Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 In some embodiments, the second contact surface 23 is formed as a slope. On the one hand, the second contact surface 23 in the embodiment of the utility model is easy to form, which reduces the processing cost of the first contact piece 21; on the other hand, the slope can support more shapes of concave bottom pots 32, further increasing the application range of the cooking device 200.

[0062] In other embodiments, the second contact surface 23 is formed as an arc-shaped surface, which is suitable for matching the curvature of the bottom wall of the concave bottom cookware 32. When the second contact surface 23 supports the bottom wall of the concave bottom cookware 32, the arc-shaped surface can fit with the bottom wall of the concave bottom cookware 32, thereby effectively improving the stability of the support of the second contact surface 23.

[0063] In some other embodiments, the first contact member 21 is provided with oblique ribs protruding therefrom and extending obliquely downward to define the second contact surface 23. In the embodiment of the utility model, the first contact member 21 can support the concave bottom pot 32 through the oblique ribs, reducing the contact area between the first contact member 21 and the concave bottom pot 32, and further improving the heat transfer of the pot 3 toward the panel assembly 100.

[0064] Reference Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 In some specific embodiments, the first contact member 21 is formed into a long strip extending toward the central area of ​​the support panel 1, and the first contact surface 22 and the second contact surface 23 are arranged in the length direction of the first contact member 21. In the embodiment of the utility model, the first contact surface 22 extends in a direction away from the central area of ​​the support panel 1, so that the first contact surface 22 can support a larger pan 31, further expanding the application range of the cooking device 200.

[0065] Reference Figure 5 , Figure 6 and Figure 7 In some further embodiments, the connection between the first contact surface 22 and the second contact surface 23 is defined as a transition surface 24, and the outer peripheral wall of the transition surface 24 protrudes from the outer peripheral wall of the first contact surface 22 and the outer peripheral wall of the second contact surface 23, thereby enhancing the structural strength of the first contact member 21.

[0066] The bottom side of the transition surface 24 is suitable for abutting against the temperature measuring component of the cooking device 200. The shape and size of the transition surface 24 need to be compatible with the temperature measuring component. In the embodiment of the utility model, the widths of the first contact surface 22 and the second contact surface 23 are both smaller than the transition surface 24, which reduces the contact area between the contact component 2 and the pot 3, reduces the heat transferred from the pot 3 to the panel component 100, and reduces the risk of damage to the cooking device 200.

[0067] The transition surface 24 is arranged between the first contact surface 22 and the second contact surface 23, and the temperature measuring component abuts against the bottom side of the transition surface 24. No matter the panel assembly 100 supports the pot 3 through the first contact surface 22 or the second contact surface 23, the cooking device 200 can detect a more accurate result, thereby improving the accuracy of temperature measurement by the temperature measuring component.

[0088] Reference Figure 5 and Figure 8 In some embodiments, the panel assembly 100 further includes: a second support member 4, the second support member 4 is disposed on the support panel 1, the second contact surface 23 is located on a side of the second support member 4 close to the outer periphery of the support panel 1, the thermal stability of the second support member 4 is higher than that of the support panel 1, and the top surface of the second support member 4 protrudes from the support panel 1.
