[0048] The present utility model provides a cooking appliance 100.

[0049] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , in some embodiments of the present application, the cooking appliance 100 includes:

[0050] An appliance main body 10, a cooking space 111 is formed inside the appliance main body 10, and an air outlet 1315 communicating with the cooking space 111 is provided;

[0051] A sealing member 30, the sealing member 30 is rotatably arranged on the appliance main body 10, and at least part of the sealing member 30 covers the air outlet 1315; and

[0052] A wind power module 50, the wind power module 50 is arranged on the appliance main body 10, the wind power module 50 can drive an air flow to blow towards the sealing member 30 to make the sealing member 30 rotate, and can make the shielding portion 31 and the air outlet 1315 be misaligned to at least partially open the air outlet 1315.

[0053] The cooking appliance 100 proposed in this application can be an air fryer, an oven, a steam oven, or the like. Among them, the cooking appliance 100 includes an appliance main body 10, a sealing member 30, and a wind power module 50. A cooking space 111 is formed inside the appliance main body 10, and an air outlet 1315 communicating with the cooking space 111 is provided on the appliance main body 10. The cooking space 111 can be used to place food ingredients. When the air outlet 1315 is opened, part of the gas in the cooking space 111 can be discharged outward, such as the water vapor generated by food evaporation or the gas discharged due to the increase in air pressure inside the cooking space 111 caused by the increase in temperature. The sealing member 30 is rotatably provided outside the air outlet 1315 and is provided with a shielding portion 31 for covering the air outlet 1315. When the sealing member 30 rotates to make the shielding portion 31 misaligned with the air outlet 1315, the air outlet 1315 is opened, and the rotation angle of the sealing member 30 can be controlled to adjust the opening size of the air outlet 1315. The rotation of the sealing member 30 is driven by air flow. A first fan 51 is provided outside the cooking space 111, or a second fan 53 can be provided inside the cooking space 111 as the wind power module 50. The first fan 51 can drive the external air flow of the cooking space 111 to blow towards the sealing member 30, and the second fan 53 can drive the internal air flow of the cooking space 111 to blow towards the sealing member 30, so that the sealing member 30 rotates under the action of the wind force, and by adjusting the wind force of the wind power module 50, the rotation angle of the sealing member 30 can be controlled.

[0054] In this way, when it is necessary to gently roast the food ingredients or adopt other cooking modes that do not require exhaust, the wind power module 50 can be not turned on or the rotation speed of the wind power module 50 can be reduced to make the sealing member 30 at least partially close the air outlet 1315. When it is necessary to crispy roast the food ingredients or adopt other cooking modes that require exhaust, the wind power module 50 can be turned on to make the sealing member 30 rotate to at least partially open the air outlet 1315. Moreover, the rotation speed of the wind power module 50 can be controlled to control the air flow velocity and flow rate, and the rotation angle of the sealing member 30 can be controlled to adjust the opening size of the air outlet 1315 to be applicable to a variety of different cooking modes.

[0055] It should be noted that when the wind power module 50 includes the first fan 51 provided outside the cooking space 111, the air outlet of the first fan 51 or the air guiding duct 171 for guiding the air flow towards the sealing member 30 can be provided on the side of the sealing member 30 to drive the air flow to blow towards the sealing member 30 along the radial direction of the sealing member 30, so as to drive the sealing member 30 to rotate. Or as in the following embodiments, the air outlet of the first fan 51 or the air guiding duct 171 is arranged facing the surface of the sealing member 30.

[0056] Therefore, it can be understood that in the technical solution of the present application, an air outlet 1315 communicating with the cooking space 111 is opened in the cooking appliance 100, and a movable sealing member 30 is provided to control the opening and closing state of the air outlet 1315; the sealing member 30 is rotatably arranged, and a wind power module 50 is provided. The wind power module 50 can drive air flow to blow towards the sealing member 30 to make the sealing member 30 rotate. When it is necessary to tenderly roast the food ingredients or adopt other cooking modes that do not require exhaust, the wind power module 50 can be not turned on or the wind power of the wind power module 50 can be reduced, so that the sealing member 30 shields the air outlet 1315; when it is necessary to crisply roast the food ingredients or adopt other cooking modes that require exhaust, the wind power module 50 can be turned on to drive the sealing member 30 to rotate, so that the sealing member 30 is misaligned with the air outlet 1315, thereby opening at least part of the air outlet 1315; and the rotation angle of the sealing member 30 can also be controlled by controlling the wind power of the wind power module 50, thereby adjusting the opening size of the air outlet 1315 to be applicable to a variety of different cooking modes. That is to say, in the technical solution of the present application, the position of the sealing member 30 can be controlled by controlling the start-stop state and wind power of the wind power module 50, thereby adjusting the opening and closing state of the air outlet 1315, so that the cooking appliance 100 can meet the usage requirements of a variety of cooking modes and enrich the functions of the cooking appliance 100.

[0057] Please refer to Figure 1 , in some embodiments of the present application, the wind power module 50 includes a first fan 51 provided outside the cooking space 111.

[0058] In this embodiment, the wind power module 50 includes a first fan 51 provided outside the cooking space 111. The first fan 51 can drive the external air flow of the cooking space 111 to flow towards the sealing member 30, thereby driving the sealing member 30 to rotate to open the air outlet 1315. Among them, the first fan 51 can directly drive the air flow to blow from the side of the shielding portion 31 towards the shielding portion 31 to drive the shielding portion 31 to rotate, or the surface of the shielding portion 31 facing away from the air outlet 1315 can be set as an inclined surface, so that the first fan 51 blows the air flow towards this inclined surface. At this time, the air flow will generate a component force along the rotation direction of the shielding portion 31 to push the shielding portion 31 to rotate. Of course, it can also be as in the following embodiment, where a windward portion 33 is provided on the sealing member 30, so that the first fan 51 blows the air flow towards the windward portion 33 to drive the sealing member 30 to rotate.

[0059] Among them, the first fan 51 and the sealing member 30 can both be provided outside the appliance main body 10; or a cooking space 111 and a diversion air duct 171 that are isolated from each other can be formed in the appliance main body 10, and the first fan 51 can be installed inside the appliance main body 10 to protect the first fan 51, the sealing member 30, etc.

[0060] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2, in some embodiments of the present application, the sealing member 30 includes a shielding portion 31 and a windward portion 33 connected to each other. The shielding portion 31 is disposed opposite to the air outlet 1315, and the windward portion is disposed opposite to the air outlet passage of the first fan 51; the first fan 51 can drive air flow to blow towards the windward portion 33 to cause the sealing member 30 to rotate.

[0061] In this embodiment, it is defined that the sealing member 30 has a length direction and includes a windward portion 33 and a shielding portion 31 arranged along the length direction. It can be that the rotating portion 35 of the sealing member 30 is arranged between the windward portion 33 and the shielding portion 31, or the rotating portion 35 is arranged at one end of the windward portion 33 away from the shielding portion 31. The rotating portion 35 is used to connect with the appliance main body 10, so that the sealing member 30 can rotate around the rotating portion 35. At this time, the first fan 51 drives air flow to blow towards the windward portion 33 to push the sealing member 30 to rotate. By setting like this, it can be avoided that the air flow driven by the first fan 51 flows towards the air outlet 1315. If the external air flow driven by the first fan 51 directly blows towards the shielding portion 31, when the shielding portion 31 is misaligned with the air outlet 1315 and the air outlet 1315 is opened, part of the air flow driven by the first fan 51 will blow into the air outlet 1315, affecting the discharge of the gas in the cooking space 111 from the air outlet 1315 to the outside. In addition, for cooking appliances 100 such as air fryers, a cooling fan is provided in the cooking appliance 100. At this time, the windward portion 33 can be extended to the air path of the cooling fan, that is, the cooling fan is reused as the first fan 51, making full use of the original structure of the cooking appliance 100, and the structure in the cooking appliance 100 can be reduced.

[0062] In some embodiments of the present application, the sealing member 30 further includes a rotating portion 35, and the rotating portion 35 is rotatably connected to the appliance main body; the rotating portion 35 is disposed between the shielding portion 31 and the windward portion 33. By setting like this, that is, the windward portion 33 and the shielding portion 31 are respectively arranged on both sides of the rotating portion 35. At this time, the air flow driven by the first fan 51 can more easily drive the windward portion 33 to drive the shielding portion 31 to rotate. For example, when the sealing member 30 is arranged substantially vertically, the windward portion 33 is located above the rotating portion 35. At this time, the gravity of the windward portion 33 can be used to drive the sealing member 30, and it is not necessary for the first fan 51 to drive a large amount of air flow.

[0063] Please refer to Figure 7 , in some embodiments, the rotating portion 35 is disposed at one end of the windward portion 33 away from the shielding portion 31. By setting like this, when the shielding portion 31 drops due to gravity to shield the air outlet 1315, the gravity of the entire sealing member 35 can be utilized to make the shielding portion 31 more stably shield the air outlet 1315.

[0064] Please refer to Figure 2, in some embodiments of the present application, the windward portion 33 has a windward surface 331, and the windward surface 331 can cause the sealing member 30 to move along a direction changing the cross-sectional area of the air outlet 1315.

[0065] In some embodiments, the windward surface 331 has two side edges spaced along the rotation direction, and the windward surface 331 is inclined from one side edge along the air flow direction of the air outlet passage to the other side edge.

[0066] In this embodiment, the windward surface 331 of the windward portion 33 is inclined. Specifically, the direction tangent to the rotation direction of the windward portion 33 is defined as the width direction of the windward portion 33, so that the windward portion 33 is skewed in the width direction, that is, the windward surface 331 of the windward portion 33 has two side edges spaced along the width direction, so that the windward surface 331 is inclined from one side edge along the air flow direction to the other side edge; thus configured, when the first fan 51 blows air to the windward surface 331, the air will flow along the inclined windward surface 331 and generate a component force acting on the windward portion 33 along the rotation direction of the sealing member 30; when the rotational speed of the first fan 51 is relatively large and the air flow wind force flowing to the windward portion 33 is sufficient, this component force can drive the sealing member 30 to rotate so that the shielding portion 31 is misaligned with the air outlet 1315 to open the air outlet 1315.

[0067] In the embodiments of the present application, the windward surface 331 is inclined. The plane perpendicular to the rotation axis of the sealing member 30 is defined as the rotation plane. Among them, the air flow direction can be parallel to the rotation axis of the sealing member 30. On this basis, it can be that only the windward surface 331 of the windward portion 33 facing the air flow is inclined relative to the rotation plane, or the entire windward portion 33 is arranged as a sheet structure and the entire windward portion 33 is inclined relative to the rotation plane, both of which can make the air flow provide a lateral rotation acting force on the windward portion 33. In some embodiments, it can also be that the windward surface 331 is parallel to the rotation plane and the air flow direction is arranged at an angle with the rotation axis of the sealing member 30, so that the air flow blows obliquely to the windward surface 331, and it can also make the air flow provide a lateral rotation acting force on the windward portion 33.

[0068] Please refer to Figure 5 , in some embodiments of the present application, the inclination angle α of the windward surface 331 inclined along the air flow direction of the air outlet passage satisfies α ≤ 45°;

[0069] And / or, the windward surface 331 has two sides spaced along the length direction of the sealing member 30, and at least one of the sides is convexly provided with a first wind shielding rib 333, and the first wind shielding rib 333 extends along the width direction of the windward surface 331.

[0070] In this embodiment, the inclination angle α of the windward surface 331 satisfies α ≤ 45°. Here, α can take values such as 5°, 10°, 15°, 20°, 25°, 30°, 35°, 40°, 45° or any value between 5° and 45°. With such a setting, the component of the total wind force applied to the windward part 33 in the rotational direction of the windward part 33 can be made greater than the component perpendicular to the rotational plane, so that more wind force is applied to drive the rotation of the sealing member 30, improving the utilization rate of the wind force; and it can avoid the large component perpendicular to the rotational plane from interfering greatly with the rotation of the sealing member 30, so that it is not necessary to make the first fan 51 rotate at a high speed, improving the smoothness of the rotation of the sealing member 30.

[0071] In addition, in some embodiments, it is defined that the windward surface 331 has two side edges arranged along the length direction of the sealing member 30, and at least one of the side edges is convexly provided with a first wind baffle 333. The first wind baffle 333 extends along the width direction of the windward surface 331. The setting of the first wind baffle 333 can ensure that the airflow blowing towards the windward surface 331 flows along the windward surface 331 in the inclined direction, avoiding the airflow from escaping from both sides in the length direction of the windward surface 331, improving the utilization rate of the airflow wind force, and enabling the airflow to better push the sealing member 30 to rotate. It can be understood that setting the first wind baffle 333 only on one of the side edges of the windward surface 331 can avoid part of the airflow from escaping towards the direction of the first wind baffle 333, playing a role in improving the utilization rate of the airflow to a certain extent; when two first wind baffles 333 are set, the utilization rate of the airflow is higher, and the component force received by the windward part 33 in the rotational direction can be made greater.

[0072] Please refer to Figures 4 to 6 , in some embodiments of the present application, the cooking appliance 100 is provided with two said sealing members 30. The shielding parts 31 of the two sealing members 30 are jointly arranged opposite to the air outlet 1315, the two windward parts are arranged opposite to the first fan 51, and the rotating parts 35 of the two sealing members 30 are coaxial; the inclination directions of the windward surfaces 331 of the two sealing members 30 are opposite, and the included angle formed by the two windward surfaces 331 is less than 180°.

[0073] In this embodiment, two sealing members 30 are arranged in a cross shape in the cooking appliance 100. The rotating parts 35 of the two sealing members 30 are coaxial, that is, the two sealing members 30 can be sleeved on the same rotating shaft. The windward parts 33 of the two sealing members 30 are arranged side by side along the rotation direction, and the shielding parts 31 of the two sealing members 30 are arranged side by side along the rotation direction and can simultaneously close part of the air outlet 1315. In addition, the inclination directions of the two windward parts 33 are opposite, and the included angle formed by the two windward surfaces 331 is less than 180°. At this time, when the first fan 51 drives the air flow to blow towards the two windward parts 33, the two windward parts 33 will rotate in opposite directions to avoid mutual interference. Thus, the two shielding parts 31 also rotate in opposite directions to open the air outlet 1315.

[0074] In some embodiments, the shielding surface 311 of the shielding part 31 facing the air outlet 1315 is also an inclined surface. When two sealing members 30 are provided, the inclination directions of the two shielding surfaces 311 can also be opposite, so that when the air flow inside the cooking space 111 flows towards the shielding part 31, the two shielding parts 31 can rotate in opposite directions to open the air outlet 1315.

[0075] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 In some embodiments of the present application, a diversion air duct 171 is formed in the appliance main body 10, and an air outlet 115 communicating with the diversion air duct 171 is provided. The first fan 51 is arranged at the inlet end of the diversion air duct 171, and the windward part 33 is located in the diversion air duct 171.

[0076] In this embodiment, a diversion air duct 171 is formed in the appliance main body 10. Such a setting can be used to guide the air flow driven by the first fan 51 to fully flow towards the windward part 33, avoiding the dissipation of the air flow driven by the first fan 51, which results in the need to rotate the first fan 51 at a higher speed to drive the sealing member 30 to rotate. In addition, through the setting of the diversion air duct 171, the installation position of the first fan 51 can be more flexible, without directly aiming at the windward part 33, improving the flexibility of the structural setting.

[0077] Please refer to Figure 1 In some embodiments of the present application, the appliance main body 10 includes a housing 11 and an inner cover 13. The housing 11 is provided with the air outlet 1315;

[0078] The inner cover 13 is disposed inside the housing 11. A receiving space 113 is formed above the inner cover 13, and a diversion structure 17 is provided. The diversion structure 17 and the inner cover 13 enclose to form the diversion air duct 171, and the first fan 51 is arranged in the receiving space 113;

[0079] The cooking space 111 is formed below the inner cover 13, and an air outlet 1315 is formed in the inner cover 13.

[0080] In the embodiment of the present application, taking the normal use and placement direction of the cooking appliance 100 as an example, the orientations such as above and below are defined. In this embodiment, the appliance main body 10 includes a housing 11 and an inner cover 13. An installation space is formed in the housing 11, and the inner cover 13 is horizontally partitioned in the installation space, so that the installation space is divided into a storage space 113 above the inner cover 13 and a cooking space 111 below the inner cover 13. A diversion structure 17 is further provided in the storage space 113. The diversion structure 17 and at least part of the surface of the inner cover 13 facing away from the cooking space 111 enclose a diversion air duct 171. The diversion structure 17 can be a baffle, a cylinder or other structures. An air outlet 1315 communicating the cooking space 111 and the diversion air duct 171 is formed in the inner cover 13. An air outlet 115 communicating the diversion air duct 171 is formed in the housing 11, and the first fan 51 is arranged in the storage space 113 to drive air to flow into the diversion space. With such a setting, the first fan 51, the sealing member 30, the heating module 15 and other structures in the cooking appliance 100 are all accommodated in the housing 11 to protect each component, and the appearance of the cooking appliance 100 is kept tidy.

[0081] In this embodiment, the air outlet 1315 can be formed on the top surface of the inner cover 13, or in the following embodiment, the inner cover 13 is set as a partially convex structure, and the air outlet 1315 is formed on the side wall of the convex part of the inner cover 13. With such a setting, when the air outlet 1315 does not need to be opened, the shielding part 31 can droop under the action of gravity to cover the air outlet 1315.

[0082] It should be noted that in this embodiment, the first fan 51 is arranged in the storage space 113 and needs to drive air to blow into the diversion air duct 171. At this time, an air guide port communicating the storage space 113 can be formed in the housing 11, or the upper housing of the housing 11 is a splicing structure formed by at least two components, and there is a non-sealed connection and an air inlet gap between the splicing positions of the two components, so that the outside air can enter the storage space 113 under the drive of the first fan 51 and flow into the diversion air duct 171.

[0083] Among them, the appliance main body 10 may further include a storage basket 19 for placing food. An opening communicating the cooking space 111 below the inner cover 13 is formed on the side wall of the housing 11, and the storage basket 19 is inserted into the opening; the appliance main body 10 can also be set as a flip structure, so that the housing 11 includes a pot body and a lid body. A cooking space 111 is formed in the pot body, the lid body is covered on the top opening of the pot body, and the inner cover 13 is covered on the surface of the lid body facing the pot body opening and encloses a storage cavity with the lid body.

[0084] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 In some embodiments of the present application, the inner cover 13 includes a cover shell 131 and a flange. The cover shell 131 protrudes toward the accommodating space 113 and includes a top wall 1311 and a surrounding edge 1313 disposed around the top wall 1311. The flange extends outward from the lower edge of the surrounding edge 1313 to the outside of the cover shell 131. The air outlet 1315 is formed in the surrounding edge 1313, and at least a part of the diversion air duct 171 is located above the top wall 1311 and the air outlet 1315.

[0085] In the embodiments of the present application, the orientation is described by taking the normal use and placement direction of the cooking appliance 100 as an example. In this embodiment, the inner cover 13 is configured as a partially protruding structure, including a cover shell 131 protruding toward the accommodating space 113 and a flange connected to the cover shell 131. The cover shell 131 includes a top wall 1311 and a surrounding edge 1313 disposed around the top wall 1311. The flange extends outward from the lower edge of the surrounding edge 1313 to the outside of the cover shell 131. The space formed inside the cover shell 131 can be used to install structures such as the heating module 15. The air outlet 1315 is formed in the surrounding edge 1313, and the diversion air duct 171 is located above the top wall 1311 and the air outlet 1315. At this time, the sealing member 30 extends substantially in the height direction, so that the shielding portion 31 is located on the side of the surrounding edge 1313, and the windward portion 33 is disposed higher than the shielding portion 31 and is located in the diversion air duct 171; with such a setting, when it is necessary to open the air outlet 1315, the first fan 51 can be blown toward the windward portion 33 to rotate the sealing member 30, so that the shielding portion 31 is misaligned with the air outlet 1315; when the air outlet 1315 does not need to be opened, the shielding portion 31 will naturally drop under the action of gravity to shield the air outlet 1315, without the need for the wind power module 50 to blow the shielding portion 31 toward the air outlet 1315, improving the use convenience.

[0086] Please refer to Figure 3 In some embodiments of the present application, the sealing member 30 further includes a connecting rod 37. A rotating portion 35 rotatably connected to the appliance main body 10 is provided between the two ends of the connecting rod 37. The shielding portion 31 and the windward portion 33 are respectively located at the two ends of the connecting rod 37, and the shielding portion 31 and the windward portion 33 are respectively located on both sides of the connecting rod 37.

[0087] In this embodiment, the sealing member 30 also includes a connecting rod 37 for connecting the windward portion 33 and the shielding portion 31, and the middle portion of the connecting rod 37 forms a rotating portion 35; and the windward portion 33 and the shielding portion 31 are respectively arranged on both sides of the connecting rod 37; with such an arrangement, when the sealing member 30 rotates, the center of gravity of both ends of the connecting rod 37 are biased toward the same side, for example, biased toward one side of the rotation direction, or away from the side of the rotation direction; thereby, the sealing member 30 has a rotational inertia toward the same side, so that it is easier to be driven to rotate.

[0088] Please refer to Figure 1 In some embodiments of the present application, the wind module 50 includes a second fan 53 disposed in the cooking space 111, and the second fan 53 can drive the air flow inside the cooking space 111 so that part of the airflow flows toward the air outlet 1315;

[0089] The sealing member 30 has a shielding surface 311 facing the air outlet 1315 , and the shielding surface 311 has two side edges spaced apart along the rotation direction, and the shielding surface 311 is inclined from one side edge toward the other side edge in a direction away from the air outlet 1315 .

[0090] In this embodiment, the wind module 50 further includes a second fan 53 disposed in the cooking space 111, wherein the cooking space 111 may be a closed space, and the second fan 53 may drive the air inside the cooking space 111 to circulate. Alternatively, the cooking space 111 may be a non-enclosed space, for example, a vent is provided on the side wall of the cooking space 111, or a gap is provided between the structures enclosing the cooking space 111, so that the second fan 53 may drive the external airflow to flow into the cooking space 111 and flow in the cooking space 111. It can be understood that when there is airflow inside the cooking space 111, part of the airflow will flow toward the air outlet 1315, so that a thrust can be applied to the shielding portion 31 located at the position of the air outlet 1315; wherein, the shielding surface 311 of the sealing member 30 is tilted toward the air outlet 1315, and specifically, the direction tangent to the rotation direction of the shielding portion 31 is defined as the width direction of the shielding portion 31, so that the shielding portion 31 is deflected in the width direction, that is, the shielding surface 311 of the shielding portion 31 has a spacing arrangement along the width direction. The two side edges of the shielding surface 311 make it tilt from one side edge to the other side edge away from the air outlet 1315; with this arrangement, when the airflow inside the cooking space 111 flows from the air outlet 1315 to the shielding surface 311, it will flow along the inclined shielding surface 311 and generate a component force applied to the shielding portion 31 along the rotation direction of the sealing member 30; when the rotation speed of the second fan 53 is relatively high so that the airflow flowing to the air outlet 1315 has sufficient wind force, the component force can drive the sealing member 30 to rotate to open the air outlet 1315.

[0091] In addition, in some embodiments, the second fan 53 is part of the hot air module, and the second fan 53 needs to be turned on during the cooking process to form hot air; at this time, when it is not necessary to open the air outlet 1315, the rotation speed of the second fan 53 can be reduced to prevent the air flow driven by the second fan 53 from blowing open the sealing member 30; when it is necessary to open the air outlet 1315, the rotation speed of the second fan 53 is increased to play a role in opening the sealing member 30.

[0092] Please refer to Figure 2 , in some embodiments of the present application, the inclination angle β of the shielding surface 311 satisfies β ≤ 45°;

[0093] And / or, the shielding surface 311 has two sides spaced along the length direction of the sealing member 30, and at least one of the sides is convex with a second wind shielding rib 313, and the second wind shielding rib 313 extends along the width direction of the shielding surface 311.

[0094] In this embodiment, the inclination angle β of the windward surface 331 satisfies β ≤ 45°, where β can take values of 5°, 10°, 15°, 20°, 25°, 30°, 35°, 40°, 45° or any value between 5° and 45°. With such a setting, the component force of the total wind force applied to the shielding portion 31 in the rotation direction of the shielding portion 31 can be made greater than the component force perpendicular to the rotation plane, so that more wind force is applied to drive the sealing member 30 to rotate, improving the utilization rate of the wind force; avoiding a large component force perpendicular to the rotation plane from interfering greatly with the rotation of the sealing member 30, so that it is not necessary to turn on the second fan 53 at a high rotation speed, and improving the smoothness of the rotation of the sealing member 30.

[0095] In addition, in some embodiments, it is defined that the shielding surface 311 has two side edges arranged along the length direction of the sealing member 30, and at least one of the side edges is convex with a second wind shielding rib 313, and the second wind shielding rib 313 extends along the width direction of the shielding surface 311. The setting of the second wind shielding rib 313 can ensure that the air flow blowing towards the shielding surface 311 flows along the shielding surface 311 in the inclined direction, avoiding the air flow from escaping from both sides in the length direction of the shielding surface 311, improving the utilization rate of the air flow wind force, and enabling the air flow to better push the sealing member 30 to rotate. It can be understood that setting the second wind shielding rib 313 on only one of the side edges of the shielding surface 311 can avoid part of the air flow from escaping towards the direction of the second wind shielding rib 313, and play a role in improving the utilization rate of the air flow to a certain extent; when two second wind shielding ribs 313 are set, the utilization rate of the air flow is higher, and the component force received by the shielding portion 31 in the rotation direction can be made greater.

[0096] Moreover, the provision of the second windscreen rib 313 allows a leakage gap to be formed by spacing the shielding surface 311 from the edge of the air outlet 1315, preventing the cooking space 111 from being completely enclosed when the shielding portion 31 covers the air outlet 1315, thus making it difficult for the sealing member 30 to be driven open under the action of the negative pressure inside the cooking space 111.

[0097] Please refer to Figure 1 , in some embodiments of the present application, the heating module 15 at least includes a heating element 151 provided in the cooking space 111, and the heating element 151 is provided in the air inlet direction or the air outlet direction of the second fan 53 and can heat the air flow driven by the second fan 53.

[0098] In this embodiment, at least one heating element 151 located in the cooking space 111 is provided in the heating module 15 in the cooking space 111, and the heating element 151 and the second fan 53 are combined to form a hot air assembly; on the one hand, the heating element 151 is located in the cooking space 111 and can directly heat the food ingredients in the cooking space 111, reducing the heat transfer path and thus reducing heat loss. The heating element 151 can be set as a heating wire, a heating coil, electromagnetic heating, a hot air assembly, infrared heating, microwave heating or other heating structures, and one heating structure can be set, or at least two heating structures can be set. In addition, the heating element 151 is provided in the air inlet direction or the air outlet direction of the second fan 53. For example, the heating element 151 can be provided on the blades of the second fan 53, or at the air inlet of the second fan 53 or the air outlet of the second fan 53 to heat the air flow driven by the second fan 53 to form hot air. The hot air flowing in the cooking space 111 can transfer heat to the food ingredients to cook the food ingredients, and the hot air circulates to make the food ingredients evenly heated everywhere.

[0099] Please refer to Figure 1 , in some embodiments of the present application, the top wall 1311 of the cooking space 111 is provided with a ventilation opening, the second fan 53 is provided below the top wall 1311 of the cooking space 111, and the air inlet of the second fan 53 faces the ventilation opening, and the heating element 151 is provided below the inner cover 13.

[0100] In this embodiment, a ventilation opening communicating the accommodation space 113 and the cooking space 111 is provided in the top wall 1311 of the cooking space 111, and the second fan 53 is provided below the top wall 1311 of the cooking space 111, with the air inlet of the second fan 53 facing the ventilation opening. The second fan 53 can be an axial flow fan and blows downward so that the hot air can directly blow onto the upper surface of the food ingredients and circulate in the cooking space 111, thereby fully heating the food ingredients.

[0101] Please refer toFigure 1 In some embodiments of the present application, the wind power module 50 includes a first fan 51 disposed outside the cooking space 111 and a second fan 53 disposed inside the cooking space 111. The first fan 51 can drive the external air flow of the cooking space 111 to blow towards the sealing member 30;

[0102] The second fan 53 can drive the internal air flow of the cooking space 111, so that part of the air flow flows towards the air outlet 1315. The sealing member 30 can rotate under the push of the external air flow and the internal air flow of the cooking space 111.

[0103] In this embodiment, the wind power module 50 includes a first fan 51 and a second fan 53. The first fan 51 can drive the external air flow of the cooking space 111 to flow towards the sealing member 30, so as to drive the sealing member 30 to rotate to open the air outlet 1315. Among them, the first fan 51 can directly drive the air flow to blow from the side of the shielding portion 31 towards the shielding portion 31 to drive the shielding portion 31 to rotate, or the surface of the shielding portion 31 facing away from the air outlet 1315 can be set as an inclined surface, so that the first fan 51 blows the air flow towards this inclined surface. At this time, the air flow will generate a component force along the rotation direction of the shielding portion 31 to push the shielding portion 31 to rotate. Of course, it can also be to set a windward portion 33 on the sealing member 30 in the following embodiment, so that the first fan 51 blows the air flow towards the windward portion 33 to drive the sealing member 30 to rotate.

[0104] The second fan 53 can drive the external air flow to flow into the cooking space 111 and flow in the cooking space 111. It can be understood that when there is an air flow inside the cooking space 111, there will be part of the air flow flowing towards the air outlet 1315, so as to apply a thrust to the shielding portion 31 located at the position of the air outlet 1315; among them, the shielding surface 311 of the shielding portion 31 can be inclined. Specifically, the direction tangent to the rotation direction of the shielding portion 31 is defined as the width direction of the shielding portion 31, so that the shielding portion 31 is deflected in the width direction, that is, the shielding surface 311 of the shielding portion 31 has two sides spaced along the width direction, so that the shielding surface 311 is inclined from one side edge towards the other side edge in the direction away from the air outlet 1315; thus arranged, when the internal air flow of the cooking space 111 flows from the air outlet 1315 towards the shielding surface 311, it will flow along the inclined shielding surface 311 and generate a component force applied to the shielding portion 31 along the rotation direction of the sealing member 30; when the rotational speed of the second fan 53 is relatively large and the air flow wind force flowing towards the air outlet 1315 is sufficient, this component force can drive the sealing member 30 to rotate to open the air outlet 1315.

[0105] In this embodiment, the sealing member 30 can be rotated and opened when the first fan 51 and the second fan 53 are driven simultaneously. At this time, to control whether the sealing member 30 is opened or not, the rotational speeds of the first fan 51 and the second fan 53 can be increased or decreased simultaneously, or the rotational speed of one of the fans can be adjusted, thereby adjusting the thrust received by the sealing member 30. Alternatively, the rotation of the sealing member 30 can be controlled by controlling the start and stop of the first fan 51 and the second fan 53. For example, when only internal hot air heating is required without opening the air outlet 1315, only the second fan 53 can be turned on. When internal hot air heating is required and the air outlet 1315 needs to be opened, the first fan 51 and the second fan 53 can be turned on simultaneously. In addition, the sealing member 30 can be rotated by being driven only by the first fan 51 or the second fan 53. For example, only the first fan 51 or the second fan 53 is turned on to drive the sealing member 30 to rotate and open the air outlet 1315. The opening size of the air outlet 1315 can be achieved by controlling the rotational speeds of the first fan 51 and the second fan 53.

[0106] Please refer to Figure 1 , in some embodiments of the present application, the appliance main body 10 further includes a drive module 70. The drive module 70 is disposed outside the top of the cooking space 111. The drive shaft 71 of the drive module 70 penetrates through the top wall 1311 of the cooking space 111. The first fan 51 and the second fan 53 are both sleeved on the drive shaft 71 of the drive module 70.

[0107] In this embodiment, the appliance main body 10 further includes a driving module 70. The driving module 70 is disposed in the accommodation space 113. The driving module 70 may be a driving motor, and the output shaft of the driving motor is used as the driving shaft 71. The driving module 70 may also be a combination of a driving motor and a transmission mechanism. The transmission mechanism may be a worm and gear transmission mechanism, a rack and pinion transmission mechanism, a gear transmission mechanism, a belt transmission mechanism, or a combination of at least two transmission mechanisms. The output end of the transmission structure is set as the output shaft. The output shaft of the driving module 70 is passed through the ventilation port of the inner cover 13, and the first fan 51 located above the cooking space 111 and the second fan 53 located below the top wall 1311 of the cooking space 111 are both sleeved on the output shaft. The output shaft can be driven by the driving device to rotate, so as to drive the first fan 51 and the second fan 53 to rotate. With such a setting, when the air outlet 1315 does not need to be opened, the first fan 51 and the second fan 53 both operate at a relatively low speed, and there is not enough air flow blowing towards the sealing member 30 to cause the sealing member 30 to rotate and open. When the air outlet 1315 needs to be opened, the rotation speeds of the first fan 51 and the second fan 53 can be increased, so that the sealing member 30 is opened under the thrust of the external air flow and the internal air flow. In addition, with this setting structure, the air flow driven by the first fan 51 can also dissipate heat from the driving module 70, so as to take away the heat generated by continuously turning on the driving module 70 during the operation of the cooking appliance 100 and dissipate it outward through the diversion air duct 171.

[0108] And both the first fan 51 and the second fan 53 are sleeved on the driving shaft 71 of the driving module 70, so that the first fan 51 and the second fan 53 can start and stop synchronously, enabling timely heat dissipation of the cooking module; and the number of driving modules 70 provided in the cooking appliance 100 is reduced, simplifying the internal structure of the cooking appliance 100.

[0109] In this embodiment, the first fan 51 may be set as a vortex blower, the second fan 53 may be set as an axial flow fan, and the fan blades of the first fan 51 and the second fan 53 are arranged in opposite directions.

[0110] Please refer to Figure 3 and Figure 4 , in some embodiments of the present application, leakage holes 315 are formed in a part of the sealing member 30 that shields the air outlet 1315;

[0111] And / or, there is a leakage gap between the sealing member 30 and the edge of the air outlet 1315.

[0112] In this embodiment, an air leakage gap connecting to the cooking space 111 can be provided between the sealing member 30 and the edge of the air outlet 1315, or an air leakage hole 315 connecting to the cooking space 111 can be provided on the sealing member 30. Such an arrangement can avoid the cooking space 111 being completely closed when the sealing member 30 covers the air outlet 1315, thereby causing the sealing member 30 to be difficult to be driven open due to the negative pressure inside the cooking space 111.

[0113] The air leakage gap between the sealing member 30 and the edge of the air outlet 1315 may be provided by protruding ribs, bumps or other protruding structures such as the second wind shielding ribs 313 in the above-mentioned embodiment on a part of the surface of the shielding portion 31 facing the air outlet 1315, so that the protruding structure abuts against the outer wall of the cooking space 111; or a protruding structure may be provided on the outer wall of the cooking space 111 to abut against the shielding portion 31, both of which can form an air leakage gap between the edge of the air outlet 1315 and the shielding portion 31 when the shielding portion 31 covers the air outlet 1315.

[0114] In one embodiment of the present application, reinforcing ribs are protrudingly provided on the surface of the sealing member 30 .

[0115] Specifically, the reinforcing ribs can be convexly arranged on the surface of the sealing member 30 facing the air outlet 1315, or convexly arranged on the surface of the sealing member 30 facing away from the air outlet 1315; the reinforcing ribs can be a structure formed on the surface of the sealing member 30, or a convex structure formed by bending the sealing member 30 as a whole, in which case a groove is formed on the other side surface of the sealing member 30 for the position of the reinforcing ribs. The reinforcing ribs can extend in any direction, or at least two reinforcing ribs extending in different directions can be provided. The provision of the reinforcing ribs can improve the structural strength of the sealing member 30 and reduce the risk of bending of the sealing member 30.

[0116] In addition, in some embodiments, reinforcing ribs are protruded from the surface of the sealing member 30 facing the air outlet 1315 and extend to the edge of the sealing member 30. When the sealing member 30 covers the air outlet 1315, the reinforcing ribs abut against the edge of the air outlet 1315, thereby forming an air leakage gap between the edge of the sealing member 30 where the reinforcing ribs are not provided and the edge of the air outlet 1315, thereby preventing the cooking space 111 from being completely closed, causing the sealing member 30 to be difficult to be driven open by the airflow due to the negative pressure inside the cooking space 111.

[0117] In one embodiment of the present application, a surface of the sealing member 30 facing the air outlet 1315 is concavely provided with an air leakage groove extending to the edge of the sealing member 30 .

[0118] In this embodiment, the air leakage groove can be a groove structure formed on the surface of the sealing member 30 by subtractive machining or other means, or a groove structure formed by bending the sealing member 30 as a whole. In this way, when the sealing member 30 covers the air outlet 1315, an air leakage gap is formed between the sealing member 30 and the edge of the air outlet 1315 at the position of the air leakage groove, which can prevent the cooking space 111 from being completely closed, so that the sealing member 30 is difficult to be opened by the air flow due to the negative pressure inside the cooking space 111.

[0119] In addition, when the air leakage groove is formed by bending or other means, a convex reinforcing rib is correspondingly formed on the surface of the sealing member 30 facing away from the air outlet, which can improve the structural strength of the sealing member 30 and reduce the bending risk of the sealing member 30.

[0120] In an embodiment of the present application, the air outlet 1315 is opened on the side wall of the cooking space 111.

[0121] In this embodiment, the air outlet 1315 is opened on the side wall of the cooking space 111. For example, it is arranged on the surrounding edge 1313 of the housing 131 of the inner cover 13 in the above embodiment, or the structure forming the cooking space 111 is set as a cylindrical structure, and the air outlet 1315 is arranged on the side wall of the cylindrical structure. In this way, the shielding part 31 of the sealing member 30 rotates substantially along the vertical plane, so that the rotation axis of the sealing member 30 is located above the air outlet 1315. In this way, when the air outlet 1315 does not need to be opened, the shielding part 31 will naturally fall under the action of gravity to shield the air outlet 1315, without the need for the wind module 50 to blow the shielding part 31 towards the air outlet 1315, improving the use convenience.

[0122] In an embodiment of the present application, the cooking appliance 100 further includes a flavoring module, and the flavoring module is communicated with the cooking space 111 to supply flavor gas to the cooking space 111.

[0123] In this embodiment, a flavoring module is provided in the cooking appliance 100. The flavoring module can be an accommodating structure such as a smoking material box, which can be used to place smoking materials. The smoking material box is communicated with the cooking space 111 to supply flavor gas to the cooking space 111. Among them, the smoking material box can be directly placed in the cooking space 111, or a conduction structure such as a conduit is provided between the smoking material box and the cooking space 111 to communicate the smoking material box and the cooking space 111. In addition, the smoking material can be directly lit and placed in the smoking material box, or a heating structure can be provided in the flavoring module to heat the smoking material in the smoking material box; in both cases, the flavor gas generated by the combustion of the smoking material can be discharged into the cooking space 111. The flavoring module can also be only the diversion structure 17, which is arranged on the appliance main body 10 and communicated with the cooking space 111, so that the flavoring module can be communicated with an external flavor gas generation module to introduce the externally generated flavor gas into the cooking space 111.

[0124] The setting of the flavoring module can impart the required flavor substances to the ingredients during the cooking process, so that the ingredients emit the required flavors, such as smoky flavor, fruity flavor or other flavors. When the cooking appliance 100 enables the flavoring mode for cooking, the flavoring module generates flavor gas in the cooking space 111. During the process of enabling the flavoring module for flavoring, the wind power module stops moving. It is necessary to make the sealing member 30 shield the air outlet 1315 as much as possible, so that the opening area of the air outlet 1315 is minimized, so as to slow down the outward emission of the flavor gas from the cooking space 111, increase the contact time between the flavor substances and the ingredients, and enable more flavor substances to penetrate into the ingredients, so that users can have a better flavor experience when enjoying the ingredients.

[0125] The above are only the preferred embodiments of the present invention, and do not limit the patent scope of the present invention accordingly. Any equivalent structural transformation made by using the description and drawings of the present invention under the inventive concept of the present invention, or direct / indirect application in other related technical fields is included in the patent protection scope of the present invention.
