[0020] The following will further detail the specific embodiments of the present utility model in conjunction with the accompanying drawings of the embodiments, so that the technical solutions of the present utility model are easier to understand and master. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present utility model and are not used to limit the present utility model.

[0021] This embodiment provides a rice cooker, which is a specific application of the innovative solution of the present utility model on the rice cooker. The innovative solution of the present utility model can also be applied to other cooking appliances that can cook rice.

[0022] Such as Figures 1-3As shown, the rice cooker includes a pot body 100 and a pot lid 200. A pot liner 110 and a steamer 300 are provided inside the pot body 100, and the steamer 300 is placed inside the pot liner 110. The side wall 310 of the steamer 300 has side holes 320, and the upper edge of the side hole 320 has a retaining wall 330 protruding inward. There is a liquid inlet 340 between the retaining wall 330 and the side wall 310, which communicates the side hole 320 with the inner cavity of the steamer 300. During the cooking process, the rice soup in the pot liner 110 will rise due to heat, and part of the rice soup will enter the side hole 320. The rice soup entering the side hole 320 is blocked by the retaining wall 330 and will not continue to rise, thus preventing the rice soup from rising to the pot lid 200. This is beneficial to keeping the pot lid 200 clean during the cooking process, reducing the frequency of cleaning the pot lid 200, and improving the user experience.

[0023] As Figure 1 、 2 shown, the side edge of the retaining wall 330 is connected to the side wall 310 of the steamer 300, and there is the liquid inlet 340 between the lower edge of the retaining wall and the side wall 310. The retaining wall 330 extends downward, and the connection of its side edge to the side wall 310 of the steamer 300 can more effectively block the rice soup entering the side hole 320 from surging upward into the steamer 300. The retaining wall 330 serves to guide the rice soup downward. In other alternative embodiments, the retaining wall 330 can also be a flanging formed by inverting the upper edge of the side hole 320.

[0024] Furthermore, the retaining wall 330 and the side wall 310 are integrally formed. The steamer 300 can be integrally injection-molded with plastic or integrally stamped with a metal part, which is simple to process. In other alternative embodiments, the retaining wall 330 can also be welded to the side wall 310.

[0025] As Figure 1 、 2 shown, the side wall 310 has an outwardly protruding annular rib 350, and the position of the annular rib 350 is higher than the position of the side hole 320. The annular rib 350 can block the rice soup outside the side wall 310 of the steamer 300 from surging to a certain extent. The annular rib 350 can force the rice soup to flow downward in a reflux manner, facilitating the rice soup to flow downward into the steamer 300 from the liquid inlet 340, which is beneficial to improving the rice soup collection efficiency.

[0026] As Figure 3 shown, there is a gap between the annular rib 350 of the steamer 300 and the inner wall of the pot liner 110. This facilitates the removal and placement of the steamer 300. The gap between the annular rib 350 and the inner wall of the pot liner 110 is less than 1 mm, for example, 0.8 mm. The smaller gap enables the annular rib 350 to play a better blocking role, reducing the amount of rice soup surging above the annular rib 350, which is beneficial to improving the rice soup collection efficiency. In other alternative embodiments, the gap can also be less than 2 mm.

[0027] As Figure 1 , 2 shown, the annular rib 350 is adjacent to the retaining wall 330. The rice soup blocked by the annular rib 350 can flow into the side opening better. The annular rib 350 can be a stepped rib or a convex rib extending in an arc shape up and down.

[0028] As Figure 1 shown, there are 4 liquid inlet ports 340, and all the liquid inlet ports 340 are evenly distributed on the side wall 310 around the center of the steamer 300. This can improve the collection efficiency of the rice soup. In other alternative embodiments, the number of the liquid inlet ports 340 can also be 2, 3 or more than 4, and the number of the side holes 320 is the same as that of the liquid inlet ports 340. The total area of the liquid inlet ports 340 is greater than 25 mm 2 .

[0029] As Figure 1 , 2 shown, the width of the retaining wall 330 gradually increases from top to bottom. In this way, when the rice soup flows to the liquid inlet port 340, the flow rate can be reduced, and the risk of splashing when the rice soup enters the steamer 300 can be reduced. In other alternative embodiments, the width of the retaining wall 330 can also be equal from top to bottom. The lower edge surface of the side opening is 1 / 3 or more of the total height of the bottom steamer 300 of the steamer 300. Because the height is too low, the sugar is not completely dissolved, the sugar content in the rice soup is too small, and the rice soup surges into the container, resulting in a poor blood sugar lowering effect and too little rice soup that can be collected. Too high a height is also not conducive to the entry of the rice soup. Preferably, the lower edge of the side opening is 1 / 2 - 2 / 3 of the height of the steamer 300.
