[0038] Reference below Figure 1-Figure 8 A panel assembly 100 of a cooking device 200 according to an embodiment of the present invention is described.

[0039] 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 main body 1 and a support assembly 9, the top surface of the main body 1 is provided with a recessed portion 11, the support assembly 9 is arranged on the main body 1 for supporting the cooking pot 7, the support assembly 9 includes a plurality of first support surfaces 21, the plurality of first support surfaces 21 are arranged at intervals on the top of the main body 1, and the plurality of first support surfaces 21 are arranged at least around the central area 111 of the recessed portion 11.

[0040] In the above technical solution, the panel assembly 100 is suitable for supporting the cooking pot 7 through the multiple first supporting surfaces 21, thereby ensuring the stability of the cooking pot 7.

[0041] A recessed portion 11 is provided on the top surface of the main body 1, and a central area 111 of the recessed portion 11 is located between the plurality of first supporting surfaces 21, so that an air layer is provided between the cooking pot 7 and the main body 1, thereby improving the heat transfer of the cooking pot 7 toward the main body 1, reducing the risk of the main body 1 being scalded, and extending the service life of the panel assembly 100.

[0042] When the cooking device 200 is working, the cooking pot 7 generates heat, and the air in the central area 111 contacts the cooking pot 7 and is heated to become hot air, which continuously flows upward, and continuously attracts the cold air outside the central area 111 into the central area 111 under the action of the air pressure difference, thereby continuously cooling the central area 111 and improving the heat dissipation effect of the cooking device 200. It should be noted that the hot air mentioned in the embodiment of the utility model refers to the air in the central area 111 that is heated by the heat of the cooking pot 7, and the cold air refers to the air whose temperature is lower than the hot air in the central area 111.

[0043] Multiple first support surfaces 21 are arranged at least around the central area 111 of the recessed portion 11, that is, part of the recessed portion 11 can extend to the outside of the multiple first support surfaces 21 to guide the cold air from the outside to the central area 111, thereby improving the heat dissipation efficiency of the central area 111 and further reducing the impact of heat on the cooking equipment 200.

[0044] The various cooking pots 7 can be divided into flat-bottomed pots 71 and concave-bottomed pots 72 according to the shape of the bottom. The bottom wall of the flat-bottomed pot 71 is flat, and the bottom wall of the concave-bottomed pot 72 is at least partially concave relative to the bottom wall of the flat-bottomed pot 71. The concave-bottomed pot 72 can be a round-bottomed pot, a conical-bottomed pot or a pot of other shapes with at least a portion of the bottom wall being concave.

[0045] The induction cooker in the related art is usually only applicable to the flat bottom pot 71. Figure 1 and Figure 7In the embodiment of the utility model, the multiple first supporting surfaces 21 can be used not only to support the flat-bottomed pot 71, but also to support the concave-bottomed pot 72. The concave central area 111 inside the multiple first supporting surfaces 21 allows the panel assembly 100 to be adapted to the concave-bottomed pot 72, effectively increasing the application range of the cooking device 200.

[0046] According to the panel assembly 100 of the cooking device 200 in the embodiment of the utility model, the design of multiple first supporting surfaces 21 and recessed portions 11 improves, on the one hand, the heat transfer of the cooking pot 7 toward the panel assembly 100, reduces the waste of heat energy, and extends the service life of the cooking device 200; on the other hand, the cooking device 200 is not only suitable for flat-bottomed pots 71, but also for concave-bottomed pots 72, thereby increasing the application range of the cooking device 200.

[0047] Reference Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 In some embodiments, the recessed portion 11 includes a plurality of guide grooves 112 extending outward, the inner ends of the plurality of guide grooves 112 are respectively connected to the central area 111 , and a portion of at least one guide groove 112 is provided between adjacent first supporting surfaces 21 .

[0048] In the above technical solution, the guide groove 112 extending to the outside of the first support surface 21 improves the smoothness of the external cold air entering the central area 111, and a plurality of guide grooves 112 are provided, which further improves the speed of the cold air entering the central area 111 and further improves the heat dissipation efficiency of the central area 111.

[0049] Furthermore, at least one portion of the guiding groove 112 is disposed between adjacent first supporting surfaces 21 , so that the plurality of guiding grooves 112 are distributed more evenly in the circumferential direction, thereby improving the uniformity of heat dissipation at different positions of the central area 111 .

[0050] In some specific embodiments, four guiding grooves 112 are provided. In some other embodiments, the guiding grooves 112 may be two, three, five or other numbers, and the present invention is not limited thereto.

[0051] Reference Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 In some embodiments, at least a portion of the sidewall of each guide groove 112 extends downwardly in an inclined direction.

[0052] In the above technical solution, the side walls of the guide groove 112 extend downwardly at an angle, thereby increasing the opening area of ​​the guide groove 112, thereby increasing the amount of cold air entering the guide groove 112, and under the guidance of the inclined side walls of the guide groove 112, the rate at which cold air enters the guide groove 112 is further increased.

[0053] Reference Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 In some further embodiments, all side walls of the guide groove 112 extend downwardly in an inclined direction, thereby improving the smoothness of the cold air entering the guide groove 112. Specifically, the side walls of the guide groove 112 include: a first side wall 1141 and a second side wall 1142 opposite to each other, the first side wall 1141 and the second side wall 1142 are both inclined surfaces extending downwardly, and an arc surface 1144 extending downwardly in an inclined direction is provided at the outer end of the guide groove 112, and the first side wall 1141 and the second side wall 1142 are transitionally connected through the arc surface 1144.

[0054] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 8 In some embodiments, the extension line of the extension direction of each guide groove 112 intersects with the peripheral wall of the central area 111, that is, there are no two guide grooves 112 facing each other, thereby avoiding the airflows in the two guide grooves 112 from blowing against each other, so that the airflow in the central area 111 can flow in a vortex shape, thereby increasing the flow speed of the air in the central area 111, and thereby improving the heat dissipation effect of the panel assembly 100.

[0055] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 5 In some specific embodiments, four guide grooves 112 are provided, and the four guide grooves 112 are evenly distributed around the central area 111, and the extension directions of any two adjacent guide grooves 112 are vertically arranged.

[0056] In the above technical solution, by setting four guide grooves 112, the amount of cold air entering the central area 111 is guaranteed; and the extension directions of any two adjacent guide grooves 112 are set vertically, so that the flow direction of the airflow guided by each guide groove 112 is tangent to the vortex-shaped airflow, thereby improving the effect of the vortex-shaped flow of the airflow in the central area 111 and further improving the flow speed of the air in the central area 111.

[0057] In some embodiments, the recess 11 includes a bottom wall 113 and a connecting peripheral wall 114, wherein the connecting peripheral wall 114 is connected to the remaining area of ​​the top surface of the main body 1, and at least a portion of the connecting peripheral wall 114 is formed as an inclined surface extending downward, so that the cold air outside the recess 11 can enter the recess 11 more smoothly.

[0058] In some further embodiments, the connecting peripheral wall 114 includes a plurality of inclined surfaces connected in sequence, and adjacent inclined surfaces are intersected and connected.

[0059] Through the above technical solution, the portion of the connecting peripheral wall 114 extending downward is enlarged, and the cold air around the recessed portion 11 can enter the recessed portion 11 through the adjacent inclined surface, further increasing the amount of cold air entering the recessed portion 11.

[0060] In some specific embodiments, the connecting peripheral wall 114 further includes a plurality of arc surfaces 1144 , and any two adjacent inclined surfaces are transitionally connected via the arc surfaces 1144 , and the arc surfaces 1144 also extend downwardly in an inclined direction.

[0061] In the above technical solution, adjacent inclined surfaces are transitioned through the arc surface 1144, which not only reduces the wind loss when the cold air flows, but also improves the overall structural strength of the panel assembly 100.

[0062] Reference Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 In some specific embodiments, the recessed portion 11 includes a central area 111 and a plurality of guide grooves 112, wherein the guide groove 112 includes: a first side wall 1141 and a second side wall 1142 opposite to each other, the first side wall 1141 and the second side wall 1142 are both inclined surfaces extending downward, and a circular arc surface 1144 extending downward is provided at the outer end of the guide groove 112, and the first side wall 1141 and the second side wall 1142 are transitionally connected through the circular arc surface 1144.

[0063] The peripheral wall of the central area 111 includes a plurality of third side walls 1143 arranged at intervals, and an opening communicating with the inner end of the guide groove 112 is defined between any two adjacent third side walls 1143. One end of the third side wall 1143 is connected to the first side wall 1141 of one guide groove 112 through an arc surface 1144, and the other end of the third side wall 1143 is connected to the second side wall 1142 of another guide groove 112. Figure 2 In an embodiment of the utility model, the third side wall 1143 is coplanar with the adjacent second side wall 1142. In other embodiments, the plane where the third side wall 1143 is located may intersect with the plane where the second side wall 1142 is located, and the third side wall 1143 is connected to the second side wall 1142 through the arc surface 1144.

[0064] In the embodiment of the present invention, the plurality of first side walls 1141 , the plurality of second side walls 1142 , the plurality of third side walls 1143 and the plurality of arc surfaces 1144 jointly define the aforementioned connecting peripheral wall 114 .

[0065] In some embodiments, the top surface of the main body 1 includes a guide surface located outside the recessed portion 11, and the guide surface extends downwardly and obliquely toward the recessed portion 11 to facilitate guiding the cold air outside the main body 1 to the recessed portion 11, thereby further improving the heat dissipation rate of the panel assembly 100.

[0066] Reference Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 In some other embodiments, the top surface of the main body 1 includes a first inclined surface 12 located outside the recessed portion 11 , and the first inclined surface 12 extends downwardly in a direction away from the recessed portion 11 .

[0067] Through the above technical solution, the overall thickness of the panel assembly 100 is reduced, the material used in the main body 1 is reduced, and the cost of the panel assembly 100 is reduced.

[0068] Reference Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 In some embodiments, the support assembly 9 includes a first support surface 21 and a second support surface 22, the first support surface 21 extends in a horizontal direction, the second support surface 22 is connected to the first support surface 21, the second support surface 22 is located on the side of the first support surface 21 facing the central area 111, and the second support surface 22 extends downward in a direction away from the first support surface 21.

[0069] In the embodiment of the present utility model, the first supporting surface 21 extends in the horizontal direction. Figure 1 and Figure 2 When the user uses the flat-bottomed pan 71, the flat-bottomed pan 71 is placed on the panel assembly 100, and the first support surface 21 contacts the flat bottom wall 113 of the flat-bottomed pan 71 to support the flat-bottomed pan 71. Because the recessed portions 11 are provided between the plurality of first support surfaces 21, an air layer is formed between the flat-bottomed pan 71 and the bottom wall 113 of the recessed portions 11, which improves the heat transfer of the pan toward the panel assembly 100, reduces the waste of heat energy, and reduces the risk of damage to the panel assembly 100.

[0070] The second supporting surface 22 extends downwardly and obliquely in a direction away from the first supporting surface 21. Figure 2 and Figure 7 When a user uses the concave bottom cookware 72 , the concave bottom cookware 72 is placed on the panel assembly 100 , and the second supporting surface 22 is suitable for supporting the concave bottom wall 113 of the concave bottom cookware 72 .

[0071] If the concave bottom cookware 72 is concave at a shallow depth, an air layer is formed between the concave bottom cookware 72 and the bottom wall 113 of the recessed portion 11, thereby improving the heat transfer of the cookware 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 bottom of the concave bottom cookware 72 contacts the bottom wall 113 of the recessed portion 11, that is, the bottom wall 113 of the recessed portion 11 also supports the bottom of the concave bottom cookware 72, thereby further improving the stability of the concave bottom cookware 72.

[0072] Reference Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 In some embodiments, the support assembly 9 includes a plurality of first support members 2 protruding from the main body 1 , the plurality of first support members 2 are spaced apart at the top of the main body 1 , and each first support member 2 is defined by a first support surface 21 and a second support surface 22 .

[0073] The cookware is supported by the first support member 2 , thereby avoiding direct contact between the cookware and the main body 1 , and reducing the risk of the panel assembly 100 being scalded.

[0074] Reference Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 In some embodiments, multiple first support members 2 are all arranged on the connecting peripheral wall 114, that is, the top of the connecting peripheral wall 114 extends to the outside of the multiple first support members 2, so that the cold air outside the first support members 2 can more easily enter the recessed portion 11, further improving the heat dissipation rate of the panel assembly 100.

[0075] Reference Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 In some embodiments, the first support member 2 is an independent structural member. The first support member 2 can be made of metal material, glass material or ceramic material. The utility model is not limited to this. Through the above technical solution, the risk of the first support member 2 being burned is reduced.

[0076] In an embodiment of the utility model, the first support member 2 is connected to the main body 1 by injection molding. In other embodiments, the first support member 2 and the main body 1 can also be connected by bonding, clamping, screwing, etc. The utility model does not limit the connection method between the first support member 2 and the main body 1.

[0077] In some embodiments, the first support member 2 is provided with protruding and horizontally extending support ribs to define the first support surface 21. In the embodiment of the utility model, the first support member 2 can support the flat-bottomed pan 71 through the support ribs, reducing the contact area between the first support member 2 and the flat-bottomed pan 71, and further improving the heat transfer of the pan toward the panel assembly 100.

[0078] In some other embodiments, the first support member 2 is provided with oblique ribs that protrude and extend obliquely downward to define the second support surface 22. In the embodiment of the utility model, the first support member 2 can support the concave bottom cookware 72 through the oblique ribs, which reduces the contact area between the first support member 2 and the concave bottom cookware 72, and further improves the heat transfer of the cookware toward the panel assembly 100.

[0079] In some embodiments, the second supporting surface 22 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 22 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, effectively improving the stability of the support of the second supporting surface 22.

[0080] In other embodiments, the second supporting surface 22 is formed as an inclined surface. On the one hand, the second supporting surface 22 in the embodiment of the utility model is easy to form, which reduces the processing cost of the first supporting member 2; on the other hand, the inclined surface can support more shapes of concave bottom pots 72, further increasing the application range of the cooking equipment 200.

[0081] In some specific embodiments, four first support members 2 are provided, and the four first support members 2 are evenly distributed around the central area 111. In some other embodiments, the number of the first support members 2 can also be three, five, six or other numbers, and the present invention is not limited to this.

[0082] In some specific embodiments, the overall extension direction of the first support member 2 is perpendicular to the direction of the first support member 2 toward the central area 111, and the first support surface 21 and the second support surface 22 are arranged in the width direction of the first support member 2. In the embodiment of the utility model, the inclined surface length of the second support surface 22 is relatively long, which can have a larger contact area with the concave bottom cookware 72, thereby improving the stability of the concave bottom cookware 72.

[0083] Reference Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 In some embodiments, the first support members 2 are multiple and are arranged around the central area 111. The overall extension direction of the first support members 2 is perpendicular to the direction of the first support members 2 toward the central area 111. The first support surface 21 and the second support surface 22 are arranged in the width direction of the first support member 2. In the length direction of the first support member 2, the first support member 2 includes a first end and a second end. The volume of the first end is greater than the volume of the second end. The first end of one of the circumferentially adjacent first support members 2 is arranged close to the second end of another first support member 2. Through the above technical solution, the structural strength of the panel assembly 100 is increased.

[0084] In the above embodiment, the first support surface 21 is suitable for surface contact with the cooking pot 7. In other embodiments, the first support surface 21 can also be in line contact with the cooking pot 7. Specifically, the first support member 2 includes two intersecting inclined surfaces, and the top connection of the two inclined surfaces extends horizontally to define the first support surface 21, and one of the two inclined surfaces defines the second support surface 22. In the embodiment of the utility model, the top connection of the two inclined surfaces extends horizontally to define the first support surface 21, and the first support surface 21 is suitable for line contact with the cooking pot 7, which reduces the contact area between the first support surface 21 and the pot, and further improves the heat transfer of the cooking pot 7 toward the panel assembly 100.

[0085] Reference Figure 5 In some embodiments, part of the cooking pot 7 may directly contact the bottom wall 113 of the recessed portion 11 , that is, the bottom wall 113 of the recessed portion 11 may also be used to support the cooking pot 7 and improve the stability of the cooking pot 7 .

[0086] Reference Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 In other embodiments, the panel assembly 100 further includes a second support member 3, which is disposed in the central area 111, so as to prevent the pot from directly contacting the bottom wall 113 of the recessed portion 11, thereby reducing the risk of the panel assembly 100 being scalded.
