Therefore, other examples of exemplary embodiments may have different values. It should be noted that similar reference numerals and letters represent similar items in the following drawings, and therefore, once a certain item is defined in an accompanying drawing, it does not need to be further discussed in subsequent drawings.

[0033] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the present application provides a pot body assembly, which includes: a pot body 10, a first coupler 20 and a protective member 30. A control unit is arranged in the pot body 10. The first coupler 20 is arranged on the pot body 10 and is electrically connected to the control unit. The protective member 30 is movably mounted on the pot body 10 and has a shielding position for shielding the first coupler 20 and a avoiding position for avoiding the first coupler 20.

[0034] By applying the technical solution of this embodiment, after the cover is opened, the protective member 30 is in the shielding position ( Figure 3The first coupler 20 is protected by the protective member 30 shown in the figure to prevent the first coupler 20 from being exposed outside the cooking utensil, and to prevent water on the user's hands or food from easily falling onto the first coupler, thereby reducing the risk of electrical failures such as short circuits in the first coupler. Therefore, the technical solution of this embodiment effectively solves the problem of electrical failures in the first coupler in the related art. When the cover 40 is placed on the pot body 10 and the second coupler needs to be plugged into the first coupler, the protective member 30 is first placed in the avoidance position ( Figure 1 The position of the protective member 30 shown in FIG. 1 ), at this time, the second coupler is plugged and matched with the first coupler, and then the cover body 40 can be covered on the pot body 10. The above-mentioned control unit includes a control board.

[0035] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the protective member 30 is provided with a receiving groove 31, and when the protective member 30 is in the shielding position, at least a portion of the first coupler 20 is located in the receiving groove 31. In this way, the protective member having the receiving groove 31 plays a role similar to a protective cover, so that the protective member can not only shield the end surface of the first coupler 20, but also shield the side surface of the first coupler 20, so as to provide a more comprehensive protection for the first coupler 20 and effectively prevent water from falling on the first coupler 20.

[0036] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the pot assembly further includes a connecting member 32, which is made of a flexible material. One end of the connecting member 32 is fixedly connected to the pot body 10, and the other end of the connecting member 32 is connected to the protective member 30. In this way, the setting of the connecting member 32 enables the protective member 30 to be indirectly located on the pot body 10, and can move with the movement of the pot body 10. The flexible material is easy to deform. When the protective member 30 needs to be in a shielding position, the connecting member 32 can be bent, and the protective member 30 moves to the first coupler 20 with the bending deformation of the connecting member 32, and then the protective member 30 can be easily covered on the first coupler 20, which is convenient to use. The connecting member 32 is preferably a connecting belt.

[0037] The above-mentioned flexible material can be silicone, rubber or plastic. Among them, silicone can be polymerized from siloxane, rubber can be nitrile rubber or propylene rubber, and plastic can be polyethylene or polypropylene.

In this way, the cover plate can cover the end surface of the first coupler 20, and the surrounding plate can cover the side surface of the first coupler 20.

[0039] like Figure 2 and Figure 4As shown, the pot body 10 is provided with a mounting groove 11, and the connecting member 32 is arranged in the mounting groove 11. The mounting groove 11 is provided to facilitate the storage of the connecting member 32, and on the other hand, when the protective member 30 is in the avoidance position, the protective member 30 and the connecting member 32 can avoid the cover 40, so that the cover 40 can be smoothly covered on the pot body 10.

[0040] like Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, the pot body 10 is provided with a mounting groove 11, a part of the connecting member 32 is connected in the mounting groove 11, and another part of the connecting member 32 extends out of the mounting groove 11 and is connected to the protective member 30. In this way, the overall length of the connecting member 32 is long, and when the protective member 30 is in the avoidance position, it is ensured that the protective member 30 can avoid the cover body 40.

[0041] like Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, the mounting groove 11 includes a closed end 111 and an open end 112 that are arranged opposite to each other, and there is a distance between the closed end 111 and the first coupler 20, and the open end 112 passes through the outer side of the pot body 10. When the protective member 30 is in the avoidance position, the connecting member 32 has an extended section extending from the open end 112 to the outside of the mounting groove 11. In this way, the protective member 30 connected to the connecting member 32 can be located outside the outer side of the pot body 10. At this time, the structural shape of the mounting groove 11 can prevent the extended section from protruding from the end surface of the pot body 10 and the cover body, so as to avoid interference with the cover body 40 being covered on the pot body 10.

[0042] like Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, in order to facilitate processing and molding, the protection member 30 and the connecting member 32 are integrally molded.

The plurality of covers 40 include a cover 40 with a second coupler 50 and a cover 40 without the second coupler 50, wherein the second coupler 50 is plugged and matched with the first coupler 20 of the pot assembly. The above-mentioned "plurality" means that the number is greater than or equal to two.

[0047] When the multiple covers 40 include a cover 40 with a second coupler 50, if the cover 40 is to be covered on the pot assembly, the protective member 30 of the pot assembly is first placed in the avoidance position, and the cover 40 with the second coupler 50 can be covered on the pot assembly. When the multiple covers 40 include a cover 40 without a second coupler 50, if the cover 40 is to be covered on the pot assembly, the protective member 30 of the pot assembly is first placed in the shielding position to prevent water on the user's hands or food from easily falling on the first coupler, reducing the risk of electrical failures such as short circuits in the first coupler, and the multiple covers 40 can be selectively covered on the pot assembly. The above-mentioned cover 40 without the second coupler 50 is a glass cover, a stainless steel cover, a cast iron cover or a ceramic cover.
