[0018] The following will further illustrate the concept, specific structure and technical effects of the utility model in conjunction with the drawings, so as to fully understand the purpose, features and effects of the utility model.

[0019] It should be noted that in the description of the present utility model, the terms indicating directions or positional relationships such as "upper", "lower", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "inner", "outer", etc. are based on the directions or positional relationships shown in the drawings. This is only for the convenience of description, rather than indicating or implying that the device or element must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be construed as a limitation to the present utility model.

[0020] See Figures 1 to 4 As shown, it is a schematic diagram of a preferred embodiment of the present utility model. The present utility model relates to a fuel feeding mechanism for a smoking oven, which includes an oven main body 1 and a fuel box 2. A push-pull channel 11 and a hopper 12 are provided on the oven main body 1. The hopper 12 is arranged on the upper side in the push-pull direction of the push-pull channel 11 for storing fuel. A material passing part 13 is constructed between the hopper 12 and the push-pull channel 11, and an intermittent feeder 3 is arranged in the material passing part 13, so that the fuel in the hopper 12 can be automatically fed into the fuel box 2 through the intermittent feeder 3. In this embodiment, the material passing part 13 and the hopper 12 are integrally manufactured, which is convenient for manufacturing and assembly and has a stable structure. Figure 1 、 2 As shown in Fig. 3, in this embodiment, the oven main body 1 includes a horizontal frame body 14 with a smoking chamber and a control cabinet 15 arranged on one side surface of the horizontal frame body 14. The user operates the present utility model in front of the oven main body 1 to take and place food in the smoking chamber and operate corresponding buttons, control screens, etc. on the control cabinet 15, and the operation is relatively simple. The push-pull channel 11 and the hopper 12 are arranged on the control cabinet 15 together and are located outside the horizontal frame body 14, thereby simplifying the structure of the horizontal frame body 14 and facilitating the construction of a sealed and heat-insulated smoking chamber. The loading port 121 of the hopper 12 is constructed on the top of the control cabinet 15 and is covered by a movable cover 16, which is convenient for placing fuel, especially granular fuel, and the movable cover 16 covers to play a protective role. The fuel box 2 is pushed into the push-pull channel 11 from front to back and is connected to the smoking chamber of the horizontal frame body 14 through a flue to realize the input of smoke into the smoking chamber. After the fuel box 2 is pushed and assembled into the push-pull channel 11, it is also connected to the intermittent feeder 3, so that the fuel box 2 can receive the fuel fed by the intermittent feeder 3. During operation, the fuel box 2 heats and burns the fuel to generate the smoke required for smoking, so as to smoke and process food. The fuel is automatically fed into the fuel box through the intermittent feeder 3, achieving automatic feeding, effectively controlling the fuel feeding amount and feeding time, reducing manual operation, effectively preventing the smoke from escaping from the hopper 12, improving the use experience of the smoking oven, and also contributing to improving the use efficiency of the smoking oven.

[0021] Figure 2 、 3As shown in Figures 4 and 5, in this embodiment, the intermittent feeder 3 includes a motor 31 and a rotor 32 driven to rotate by the motor. The motor 31 is fixed on the oven body 1. The rotor 32 is assembled in a rotatable position and connected coaxially with the motor 31, so that the motor 31 drives the rotor 32 to rotate around a set axis. The rotor 32 is a hollow cylinder. The rotor 32 is horizontally arranged above the fuel box 2, and a material port 321 is provided on the outer periphery of the rotor 32. The material port 321 is constructed by a partial cut of the rotor 32 and communicates with the hollow cavity inside the rotor. The material port 321 extends along the axial direction of the rotor 32 and the extended length matches the discharge port of the hopper 12 so as to be docked and connected; the working state of the material port 321 alternately connecting the hopper 12 and the fuel box 2 is established by the rotation of the rotor 32. In this embodiment, the fuel box 2 is a structure having an inner box and an outer box. The inner box is mainly used to receive the fuel and cooperate with the heater for heating, so that the fuel is heated and burns and produces smoke. The outer box plays a bearing and collection function, which is convenient for push-pull disassembly and assembly, and collects smoke together and transports it to the smoking chamber. At the same time, it can also collect ashes for subsequent cleaning. In this embodiment, the fuel box 2 is a U-shaped structure with an upward opening, which is convenient for connection with the intermittent feeder 3. During operation, the rotor 32 rotates, so that the material port 321 is connected to the hopper 12, and the fuel in the hopper 12 automatically falls into the hollow cavity inside the rotor. At this time, the hollow cavity inside the rotor can receive the material for temporary storage, and the receiving amount can also be controlled. Of course, the rotor rotation speed can also be used to control the amount of fuel received, so as to achieve the control of the amount; then the rotor 32 rotates, so that the material port 321 is connected to the fuel box 2, and the fuel is poured into the fuel box 2 by itself by using its own weight, that is, automatic feeding is achieved.

[0022] Figure 1 , 2 As shown, this embodiment adds a movable cover 16 for covering and protection, which effectively covers the charging port 121 of the hopper 12, protects the fuel in the hopper, and ensures that the product has a smooth appearance. In this embodiment, an inner boss 161 is provided on the inner side of the movable cover 16. The shape and size of the inner boss 161 match the charging port of the hopper 12, so as to obtain better positioning and covering, and enhance the user experience. Furthermore, the movable cover 16 is a structure composed of a laminated composite structure of an inner plate and an outer plate. The inner boss 161 is directly stamped and formed on the inner plate, which is convenient for production and assembly and reduces production costs. The rear end of the movable cover 16 is hingedly connected to the control cabinet 15, so that the movable cover 16 can open and close relative to the control cabinet 15, which is convenient for opening and closing and is conducive to loading. In this embodiment, further, the outer dimensions of the movable cover 16 match the top dimensions of the control cabinet 15 to achieve complete integration. One side of the movable cover 16 is close to the horizontal frame 14, and a concave avoidance portion 141 is provided on the horizontal frame 14. The avoidance portion 141 is distributed on the area where the movable cover 16 opens and closes, thereby reducing opening and closing interference and improving the user experience.

[0023] The utility model constructs a material passing part between the hopper and the push-pull channel, and an intermittent feeder is arranged in the material passing part, so that the fuel in the hopper can be automatically fed into the fuel box through the intermittent feeder, achieving automatic feeding, effectively controlling the fuel feeding amount and feeding time, reducing manual operation, improving the use experience of the smoking oven, and also helping to improve the use efficiency of the smoking oven. The structure is simple and compact, convenient and practical, and has good market benefits.

[0024] Although the preferred specific embodiments of the present utility model have been described above in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, the present utility model should not be limited to the structures and operations that are exactly the same as the above description and drawings. For those skilled in the art of this technology, many equivalent improvements and changes can be made to the above embodiments through logical analysis, reasoning or limited experiments without exceeding the concept and scope of the present utility model. However, these improvements and changes should all fall within the scope of protection required by the present utility model.
