For those of ordinary skill in the art, the specific meanings of the above terms can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0036] As Figures 1 - 3 shown, an embodiment of the present utility model provides a flat heating structure of a steaming and baking module, including a glass-coated heating plate 1 and a heat insulation plate 2 located above the glass-coated heating plate 1. For the convenience of clear description, it is defined that Figure 1 above in Figure 1Below is down. The glass-coated heating plate 1 includes a glass substrate 11, which is rectangular in this embodiment, but is not limited thereto. A coated heating element 12 is provided on the top surface of the glass substrate 11, and a silver contact 13 is connected to the edge of the coated heating element 12. The heat insulation plate 2 is provided with a first mounting hole 21 corresponding to the silver contact 13, and a wiring seat 3 is provided in the first mounting hole 21, and the wiring seat 3 is electrically connected to the silver contact 13.

[0037] When assembling the flat heating structure of the steam cooking module provided by the embodiment of the present invention, the glass substrate 11 of the glass-coated heating plate 1 can be bonded to the bottom of the heat insulation plate 2 through silicone, and the wiring seat 3 can be bonded to the glass substrate 11 through silicone and electrically connected to the silver contact 13. Then, the live wire and the neutral wire are connected to the wiring seat 3 to supply power to the coated heating element 12 of the glass-coated heating plate 1 for heating. After assembly, the flat heating structure of the present invention is installed on the top of the cooking cavity of the cooking device, which can be installed inside the top of the cooking cavity, or an opening can be made at the top of the cooking cavity, and the flat heating structure is fixed outside the opening at the top of the cooking cavity to avoid occupying the space of the cooking cavity. The flat heating structure of the steam cooking module provided by the embodiment of the present invention cancels the existing heating tube and instead uses the glass-coated heating plate 1 for heating, further reducing the thickness of the heating structure, reducing the space occupied in the cooking cavity or the housing of the cooking device, and improving the space utilization rate. When in use, the glass substrate 11 blocks the top of the cavity, which can prevent oil stains and dirt after cooking from adhering to the top of the cavity, making it easy to clean and the overall effect more beautiful. The heat insulation plate 2 of the flat heating structure of the steam cooking module provided by the embodiment of the present invention can isolate the heat of the glass-coated heating plate 1 upward, ensuring that the heat is transmitted downward as much as possible and reflected into the cooking cavity of the cooking device below, avoiding energy loss and also avoiding damage to the cooking device components above, such as the air duct, water tank, circuit board, etc.

[0038] Since the coated heating element 12 is in close contact with the glass substrate 11 and the coated heating element 12 has a relatively high temperature during operation, in a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the glass substrate 11 is a heat-resistant glass-ceramic.

[0039] To control the heating temperature of the glass-coated heating plate 1 and prevent the temperature from being too high to damage the glass substrate 11 and the coated heating element 12, as Figure 2 、 Figure 3 shown, the heat insulation plate 2 is provided with a second mounting hole 22 corresponding to the coated heating element 12, and a temperature measuring device is inserted into the second mounting hole 22. The temperature of the glass-coated heating plate 1 is measured by the temperature measuring device to prevent it from exceeding the maximum temperature that components such as the glass substrate 11 and the heat insulation plate 2 can withstand.

[0040] In an embodiment of the present utility model, the temperature measuring device is a thermocouple 4. As Figure 5 , Figure 6 shown, the thermocouple 4 includes a ceramic housing 41 with a closed bottom end and a cover 42 provided at the top end. At the bottom end inside the ceramic housing 41, a negative temperature coefficient thermistor 43 (NTC) is provided. Both ends of the negative temperature coefficient thermistor 43 are connected to a wire 44, and the wire 44 passes through the cover 42 and leads to the outside to be connected to a control system. The negative temperature coefficient thermistor 43 and the wire 44 are sheathed with a Teflon hose 45, which has the properties of high temperature resistance and insulation, can reduce interference, improve the accuracy of temperature measurement, and can also extend the service life of the thermocouple 4. As Figure 2 shown, when in use, the bottom end of the thermocouple 4, that is, the end provided with the negative temperature coefficient thermistor 43, is brought into contact with the film heating element 12 to improve the accuracy of temperature measurement.

[0041] To prevent the temperature measuring device from detaching from the film heating element 12 and causing measurement errors, as Figure 2 , Figure 3 shown, a top frame 5 is provided at the top of the temperature measuring device. The end of the top frame 5 is fixedly connected to the heat insulation plate 2, and a compression spring 6 is provided between the middle of the top frame 5 and the top of the temperature measuring device, so that the measuring end of the temperature measuring device remains in contact with the film heating element 12.

[0042] To limit the position of the compression spring 6, as Figure 2 , Figure 5 , Figure 6 shown, a first step portion 46 is provided at the top of the cover 42, and a second step portion 51 is provided on the bottom surface of the top frame 5. Both ends of the compression spring 6 are respectively sleeved on the first step portion 46 and the second step portion 51.

[0043] As Figure 2 , Figure 3 shown, in an embodiment of the present utility model, the top frame 5 includes a U-shaped inverted frame body 52 and fixing plates 53 horizontally extending from both ends of the frame body 52. The fixing plates 53 are fixedly connected to the heat insulation plate 2 (for example, by screws or adhesives), and the second step portion 51 is provided on the bottom surface of the frame body 52. The top of the compression spring 6 is located inside the frame body 52 to further limit the compression spring 6. In addition, since the bottom surface area of the frame body 52 is relatively large, a good positioning effect on the compression spring 6 cannot be provided only by the second step portion 51. Therefore, in a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, as Figure 2 , Figure 3As shown, the cross-section of the compression spring 6 is an inverted triangle, with a smaller bottom diameter connected to the first step portion 46 of the thermocouple and a larger top diameter connected to the frame body 52. The outer periphery abuts against the side wall of the frame body 52, and it is sleeved outside the second step portion 51 internally, improving the positioning effect on the top of the compression spring 6.

[0044] To protect the heat insulation plate 2 and prevent excessive local stress, as Figure 2 、 Figure 3 shown, a backing plate 54 is provided between the heat insulation plate 2 and the frame body 5, and the backing plate 54 is provided with holes corresponding to the thermocouple 4.

[0045] To avoid affecting the installation of components above the heat insulation plate 2, as Figure 1 、 Figure 2 、 Figure 3 shown, a recessed portion 23 is provided at the top of the heat insulation plate 2. The second mounting hole 22 and the top frame 5 are both located within the recessed portion 23, and the top surface of the top frame 5 is lower than or flush with the top surface of the heat insulation plate 2. In this way, the top and bottom surfaces of the entire flat heating structure are flat planes without protruding components, which can avoid interference with components above and below, reduce the assembly difficulty, and improve the assembly efficiency.

[0046] To further improve the effect of the flat heating structure for insulating heat upwards, as Figure 2 、 Figure 3 shown, a heat insulation cotton 7 is provided between the heat insulation plate 2 and the glass-coated heating plate 1, so that heat can be better conducted to the cooking cavity below. The heat insulation cotton 7 is provided with notch portions 71 corresponding to the first mounting hole 21 and the second mounting hole 22 to avoid the wiring seat 3 and the temperature measuring device.

[0047] As Figure 7 、 Figure 8 shown, the present invention also provides a cooking device, which is provided with a cooking cavity 8 and further includes the flat heating structure of the above-mentioned steaming and baking module, which is arranged on the top of the cooking cavity 8. The cooking device can be a steam box, an oven, an integrated stove, etc. Two temperature sensing elements 91 (such as thermocouples) are arranged in the cooking cavity 8, and a heating tube 92 is arranged at the bottom of the cooking cavity 8.

[0048] The above are only the preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not used to limit the present invention. For those skilled in the art, the present invention can have various changes and modifications. Any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present invention shall be included within the protection scope of the present invention.
