Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of toasters, in particular to an automatically lifting toaster. Background Art

[0002] A toaster is an electric cooking appliance for baking bread slices. At present, the lifting structure in the toaster is usually a manual spring structure. When the existing toaster bakes a relatively heavy large bread, the bread cannot bounce up. If it is to be bounced up, the strength of the spring must be increased. However, in this case, when baking a relatively light small bread, the small bread is very easy to be bounced off after baking. In such a situation where it is difficult to take both into account, customers often choose to prevent the small bread from flying and take out the large bread by manual lifting, but this operation is cumbersome and inconvenient to use. When the existing toaster is manually operated, the exposed operating handle is pressed downward so that the bread tray overcomes the spring force and moves downward along the guide shaft. When the operating handle is pressed to the lowest position, the electromagnet set at the bottom of the toaster is closed and energized. At this time, the electromagnet absorbs the armature located below the bread tray, so that the bread tray is kept at the lowest position, and then the toaster works to bake the bread. When the toaster works to the set time, the electromagnet is powered off, and the bread tray rises under the action of the spring force, thereby ejecting the bread slices from the inner tank. However, when the spring releases its elastic potential energy, it will have a great impact on the bread tray and the bread slices on the tray. The bread slices will be subjected to a large thrust in a short period of time and will accelerate rapidly. The excessive elastic force may cause the bread slices to pop out of the toaster pot. The vibration generated when the spring pops up can easily cause the crumbs on the bread slices to fall off, increasing the burden of cleaning the toaster pot and the table top.
