Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field related to steamers, in particular to a steamer with a filtering structure. Background Art

[0002] An electric steamer, also called an electric steamer, is a kitchen appliance developed based on traditional wooden steamers, aluminum steamers, and bamboo steamers that uses the principle of electric steam to directly steam various foods.

[0003] Existing food steamers generally use steam generated by a steam generating device to cook food. During the cooking process, water vapor condenses into water droplets and falls into a water receiving tray of the steamer for collection. In addition, some residues of food may fall into the water receiving tray during the steaming process, causing the condensed water collected in the water receiving tray to be unclean. Generally, the condensed water in the water receiving tray is poured away after cooking, which results in a waste of water resources. Utility Model Content

[0004] In order to overcome the existing technical defects and solve the technical problem that the condensed water collected in the cooking process of the existing steamer is generally poured away, resulting in a waste of water resources, the purpose of the utility model is to provide a steamer with a filtering structure to solve the above technical problems.

[0005] The technical solution adopted by the utility model to solve the technical problem is as follows:

[0006] According to one aspect of the utility model, a steamer with a filtering structure is designed, comprising: a water receiving tray, a steaming tray and a pot cover, a water retaining member is arranged at the bottom of the water receiving tray, a mounting member is arranged at the bottom, a water storage tank is formed between the outer side of the water retaining member and the inside of the water receiving tray, an overflow structure is arranged on the water retaining member, the interior of the mounting member is communicated with the interior of the water retaining member, a filtering unit and an odor removal unit are installed in the mounting member, a pipe joint is arranged at the bottom of the mounting member, a water outlet channel is arranged in the pipe joint, the steaming tray is placed on the water receiving tray, the pot cover is placed on the steaming tray, and a connecting hole is arranged on the pot cover.

[0007] By adopting the above technical scheme, when the steamer is in use, the steam delivery pipe is connected through the connection hole on the pot cover to deliver steam to the steamer, so that the food placed in the steamer can be cooked. The water vapor generated in the cooking process condenses into water droplets and falls into the water storage tank. After the water level of the condensed water collected in the water storage tank is higher than the lower height of the overflow structure, the condensed water will pass through the overflow structure and flow into the water retaining part and the mounting part, and the residue in the condensed water will be filtered out by the filter unit, and the odor will be removed by the odor removal unit before being discharged from the pipe joint. Since the discharged water has been filtered and odor-removed, the discharged water can be reused to achieve the effect of saving water.

[0008] In order to better solve the above technical defects, the utility model also has a better technical solution:

[0009] In some embodiments, a base is further included, and the water receiving tray is arranged on the base.

[0010] In some embodiments, the base is provided with a mounting groove and an avoidance hole at the bottom of the mounting groove, the water receiving tray is placed in the mounting groove, the mounting member is placed in the base through the avoidance hole, and at least three universal ball rollers are provided at the bottom of the base.

[0011] In some embodiments, the pipe joint is connected to a water outlet pipe, the other end of which passes through a through hole on the base and extends to the outside and is connected to a connector, and an O-ring is connected to the connector. The connector is used to be plugged into the socket on the water recovery device, and the O-ring can achieve a sealed plug-in effect to prevent water leakage.

[0012] In some embodiments, a one-way valve made of silicone is installed inside the water inlet end of the pipe joint, the cross section of the one-way valve is V-shaped, and a gap is provided at the bottom of the one-way valve to connect the inside with the outside. Due to the setting of the one-way valve, the filtered water will not directly enter the water outlet pipe. When the pump body in the water recovery device starts to pump water, negative pressure is generated in the water outlet pipe to force the gap on the one-way valve to open, and the filtered water in the installation part passes through the opened gap into the water outlet pipe and the water recovery device. When the pump body in the water recovery device stops, the gap on the one-way valve automatically closes.

[0013] In some embodiments, the water retaining member and the mounting member are respectively in a circular structure, a semicircular structure, a quadrilateral structure, a pentagonal structure, or a hexagonal structure, and the water retaining member and the mounting member are disposed correspondingly up and down.

[0014] In some embodiments, the overflow structure is a circular hole structure, a strip hole structure, or a U-shaped overflow port formed by a downward depression on the top of the water retaining member, and a cover is provided on the top of the water retaining member to prevent debris from falling directly onto the filter unit and blocking the filter holes thereon.

[0015] In some embodiments, two annular protrusions are provided inside the mounting member, the upper annular protrusion supports the filter unit, and the lower annular protrusion supports the odor removal unit, and a gap is maintained between the odor removal unit and the bottom of the mounting member.

[0016] In some embodiments, the filter unit is a filter cotton sheet or a metal filter mesh plate.

[0017] In some embodiments, the odor removal unit is an activated carbon filter cotton block or an activated carbon plate with filter holes. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
