Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to an electric rice cooker structure. Background Art
[0002] Prior art, such as Chinese utility model patent document, publication number CN206137874U, discloses an electric rice cooker comprising an inner pot, an outer pot, a heating plate and a magnetic steel temperature limiter, wherein the heating plate is fixed on the inner bottom of the outer pot and the heating plate is in contact with the outer bottom of the inner pot.
[0003] Based on the above, in the prior art, the existing heating plate is a fixed setting. The disadvantage of this fixed setting is that when the heating plate or the bottom of the inner pot is deformed and bulged, the cooker cover hinged on the outer shell cannot be buckled. In this case, the rice cooker can only be replaced, and further improvements are needed. Utility Model Content
[0004] The utility model aims to solve at least one of the technical problems existing in the prior art. To this end, the utility model proposes an electric rice cooker structure that can adapt to the deformation of a heating plate or an inner pot bottom.
[0005] An electric rice cooker structure designed for this purpose comprises an outer shell, wherein a cooker body for placing an inner pot is arranged inside the outer shell, a heating plate is arranged inside the cooker body, the heating plate is arranged to move up and down relative to the cooker body, and a first elastic element is arranged between the heating plate and the cooker body.
[0006] Preferably, a plurality of through holes are arranged along a circumference on the bottom surface of the pot body, and a guide column extending downward through the through hole is arranged at a position of the heating plate corresponding to the through hole, and a limit piece is threadedly connected to the lower end of the guide column, and the limit piece is in contact with the lower surface of the pot body;
[0007] The first elastic element is a spring, one end of which abuts against the lower surface of the heating plate, and the other end of which abuts against the inner bottom surface of the pot body.
[0008] Preferably, the number of the first elastic elements is consistent with the number of the guide posts, and the first elastic elements are sleeved on the guide posts.
[0009] Preferably, the through hole is provided with a first flange extending upward, and the lower portion of the first elastic element is sleeved on the first flange.
[0010] Preferably, an opening is provided in the middle of the heating plate, a temperature limiter is provided in the opening, the temperature limiter is arranged to move up and down relative to the heating plate, and a second elastic element is connected between the temperature limiter and the pot body.
[0011] Preferably, the shell comprises a lower shell and an upper shell, and the upper edge of the pot body is provided with a connecting flange, and the connecting flange is fixedly connected to the upper shell;
[0012] A bracket is arranged on the inner bottom of the lower shell body, and the upper end of the bracket is fixedly connected to the pot body.
[0013] Compared with the prior art, the utility model has a heating plate that is movable up and down relative to the pot body, and a first elastic element is arranged between the heating plate and the pot body. Under the action of the first elastic element, it generates an upward force on the heating plate. When the inner pot is put into the pot body, as the bottom surface of the inner pot contacts the upper surface of the heating plate, the heating plate will move downward under the influence of the gravity of the inner pot, thereby compressing the first elastic element. When the inner pot is taken out, the first elastic element releases the stored force to drive the inner pot to move upward. The utility model has a heating plate that is movable up and down, and can solve the problem that the bottom surface of the inner pot or the heating plate is deformed and bulged and the pot cover cannot be fastened through the movement of the heating plate. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
[0014] Figure 1 It is a schematic diagram of the cross-sectional structure of the utility model. DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0015] The utility model is further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments.
[0016] See also Figure 1 A rice cooker structure includes a shell 10, a cooker body 20 for placing an inner pot is arranged in the shell 10, a heating plate 30 is arranged in the cooker body 20, the heating plate 30 is arranged to move up and down relative to the cooker body 20, and a first elastic element 40 is arranged between the heating plate 30 and the cooker body 20.
[0017] Based on the above embodiment, under the action of the first elastic element, it generates an upward force on the heating plate. When the inner pot is placed into the pot body, as the bottom surface of the inner pot contacts the upper surface of the heating plate, the heating plate will move downward under the influence of the gravity of the inner pot, thereby compressing the first elastic element. When the inner pot is taken out, the first elastic element releases the stored force to drive the inner pot to move upward. The utility model can solve the problem that the bottom surface of the inner pot or the heating plate is deformed and bulged and the pot cover cannot be fastened by the movement of the heating plate.
[0018] See also Figure 1 A plurality of through holes 210 are arranged along a circumference on the inner bottom surface of the pot body 20, and a guide column 310 extending downward through the through hole 210 is arranged at a position of the heating plate 30 corresponding to the through hole 210, and a limit member 320 is threadedly connected to the lower end of the guide column 310, and the limit member 320 is in contact with the lower surface of the pot body 20;
[0019] The first elastic element 40 is a spring, one end of which abuts against the lower surface of the heating plate 30 , and the other end of which abuts against the inner bottom surface of the pot body 20 .
[0020] The limiting member 320 is in contact with the lower surface of the pot body 20 , and serves to restrict the upward movement of the heating plate 30 .
[0021] Furthermore, the limiting member 320 is a nut.
[0022] In the present invention, the number of the first elastic elements 40 is consistent with the number of the guide posts 310 , and the first elastic elements 40 are sleeved on the guide posts 310 .
[0023] See also Figure 1 The through hole 210 is provided with a first flange 211 extending upward, and the lower part of the first elastic element 40 is sleeved on the first flange 211. The first flange 211 is used to position the first elastic element 40 to prevent the first elastic element 40 from changing position and being twisted. At the same time, the first flange 211 protrudes upward, which can prevent the liquid in the pot body 20 from penetrating downward. When it flows to the first flange 211, it is blocked and remains in the pot body 20. Further, in conjunction with the heating plate 30, the liquid that has not penetrated can be heated and volatilized.
[0024] See also Figure 1 The heating plate 30 is provided with an opening 300 in the middle thereof, and a temperature limiter 60 is provided in the opening 300. The temperature limiter 60 is arranged to move up and down relative to the heating plate 30, and a second elastic element 610 is connected between the temperature limiter 60 and the pot body 20. The temperature limiter 60 is a prior art, and will not be described in detail here.
