[0027] Please refer to Figure 1-Figure 3 The utility model provides an internal circulation steam cabinet, including a cabinet body 1 and a fan 2. The cabinet body 1 is provided with an exhaust port 10, and the fan 2 is arranged at the exhaust port 10. The air outlet port of the fan 2 is connected with an exhaust pipe 3, and a first regulating air valve 30 is arranged in the exhaust pipe 3. The first regulating air valve 30 is used to adjust the air outlet volume of the exhaust pipe 3; the exhaust pipe 3 is connected with a return air pipe 4 communicated with the cabinet body 1, and the position where the return air pipe 4 is connected to the exhaust pipe 3 is between the air inlet port and the air outlet port of the exhaust pipe 3, and a second regulating air valve 40 is arranged in the return air pipe 4. The second regulating air valve 40 is used to adjust the return air volume of the return air pipe 4.

[0028] The internal circulation steam cabinet of the utility model is provided with a first regulating air valve 30 and a second regulating air valve 40 in the exhaust duct 3 and the return air duct 4 respectively. When it is necessary to circulate hot steam in the steam cabinet, the fan 2 is started, the valve of the first regulating air valve 30 is closed, and the valve of the second regulating air valve 40 is opened. In this way, the hot steam in the cabinet body 1 of the steam cabinet can be extracted from the exhaust port 10, and then enters the return air duct 4 through the exhaust duct 3, and finally enters the cabinet body 1, so that the hot steam can circulate in the steam cabinet, thereby increasing the air flow in the cabinet body 1, effectively reducing the condensation water that is easy to be generated by the hot steam and condensed on the pastry, thereby improving the quality of the pastry.

[0029] Of course, the cabinet 1 is provided with a steam pipe 11 extending outside the cabinet 1, and hot steam enters the cabinet 1 from the steam pipe 11 to steam pastries. When the hot steam is steamed in the cabinet 1 of the steam cabinet, when it is necessary to discharge the hot steam, the fan 2 is started, the valve of the second regulating air valve 40 is closed, and the valve of the first regulating air valve 30 is opened, so that the hot steam is discharged from the exhaust pipe 3 to the atmosphere. Of course, the cabinet 1 is provided with a pressure sensor and a temperature sensor, and the pressure in the cabinet 1 is detected by the pressure sensor, and the temperature in the cabinet 1 is detected by the temperature sensor. When the pressure in the cabinet 1 of the steam cabinet is greater than the set pressure, the fan 2 is started, the valve of the second regulating air valve 40 is closed, and the exhaust volume of the first regulating air valve 30 is adjusted, so that the cabinet 1 of the steam cabinet is in a slightly depressurized state, so as to avoid the pressure in the cabinet 1 of the steam cabinet being greater than the set pressure and affecting the quality of the steamed pastries.

[0030] Among them, the fan 2 is a variable frequency speed regulating fan 2, and the variable frequency speed regulating fan 2 can be used to adjust the rotation speed of the fan 2, so as to be more conducive to promoting the air flow in the cabinet 1. Specifically, the air flow in the cabinet 1 can be detected by a sensor for detecting the air flow, and the sensor for detecting the air flow is electrically connected to the variable frequency speed regulating fan 2. When the sensor for detecting the air flow detects that the air flow in the cabinet 1 is too large, the speed of the variable frequency regulating fan 2 can be automatically reduced; when the sensor for detecting the air flow detects that the air flow in the cabinet 1 is too small, the speed of the variable frequency regulating fan 2 can be automatically increased. That is to say, it can be understood that the variable frequency speed regulating fan 2 can make the air flow in the cabinet 1 reach a dynamic balance, so as to be more conducive to improving the quality of steamed pastries.

[0031] The first regulating air valve 30 and / or the second regulating air valve 40 are electric regulating air valves. The first regulating air valve 30 and the second regulating air valve 40 of the present embodiment are both configured as electric regulating air valves. The electric regulating air valve in the exhaust duct 3 and the electric regulating air valve in the return duct 4 are both electrically connected to the variable frequency speed regulating fan 2. The electric regulating air valve in the exhaust duct 3 can automatically adjust the exhaust air volume, and the electric regulating air valve in the return duct 4 can automatically adjust the return air volume entering the cabinet 1, so that the air flow in the cabinet 1 can achieve the effect of automatic adjustment and balance.

[0032] On the basis of the above structure, a return air cover 5 is further provided on the opposite side walls of the cabinet 1, a water baffle 6 is provided between the two return air covers 5, an outlet 60 communicating with the exhaust port 10 is provided on the water baffle 6, and the inner cavity of the return air cover 5 is configured as a return air duct 50, which communicates with the return air duct 4 and the cabinet 1 respectively. When the hot steam circulates in the steaming cabinet, the hot steam in the cabinet 1 enters the exhaust port 10, the exhaust duct 3, the return air duct 4, and the return air duct 50 in sequence from the outlet 60 of the water baffle 6, and finally returns to the cabinet 1 to complete the internal circulation; when the hot steam is discharged from the cabinet 1 to the atmosphere, the hot steam in the cabinet 1 is discharged from the outlet 60 of the water baffle 6, the exhaust port 10, and the exhaust duct 3 in sequence under the action of the fan 2. In summary, it can be understood that by providing the return air cover 5, the air flow path in the cabinet 1 can be optimized and the quality of the hot steam steamed pastries can be improved.

[0033] In this embodiment, refer to Figure 2 The ports at both ends of the return air duct 50 are closed, and the ports at both ends of the return air duct 50 are closed by a sealing plate 7. The sealing plate 7 is detachably connected to the return air hood 5. The detachable connection between the sealing plate 7 and the return air hood 5 can be connected by means of a buckle or a screw, which is conducive to disassembling the sealing plate 7 and discharging the condensed water accumulated in the return air duct 50. In addition, a plurality of or a plurality of groups of through slots 510 are provided on the return air hood 5, and the through slots 510 connect the cabinet 1 and the return air duct 50, wherein the wall surface of one return air hood 5 facing away from the other return air hood 5 is set as the return air wall surface 51, and the through slots 510 are set on the return air wall surface 51, and the opposite ends of the water retaining plate 6 are respectively connected to the return air wall surfaces 51 of the two return air hoods 5. Of course, a plurality of through slots 510 are provided, and the plurality of through slots 510 are arranged at intervals along the height direction of the return air wall surface 51. It can be seen from this that when the hot steam circulates in the steam cabinet, the circulation path of the air in the cabinet 1 is: the hot steam enters the exhaust port 10, the exhaust duct 3, and the return air duct 4 in sequence from the outlet 60 of the water baffle 6, and the air in the return air duct 4 enters the return air duct 50 from the groove 510 of the return air wall 51 above the water baffle 6, and finally flows back to the cabinet 1 from the groove 510 on the return air wall 51 below the water baffle 6 to steam the pastries.

[0034] In this embodiment, refer to Figure 3 There are multiple groups of through slots 510, and the multiple groups of through slots 510 are arranged at intervals along the horizontal direction of the return air wall surface 51. Each group of through slots 510 includes multiple through slots 510, and the multiple through slots 510 of each group of through slots 510 are arranged at intervals along the height direction of the return air wall surface 51, so that the flow rate of hot steam from the through slots 510 back to the cabinet body 1 can be increased. Among them, the spacing between any two adjacent through slots 510 is uniform, so that the hot steam can steam the pastries evenly, further improving the quality of the steamed pastries.
