[0033] Refer to Figures 1 to 3, A rice steaming cabinet according to an embodiment of the present utility model includes a cabinet body assembly 100, a first side plate 130, a second side plate 140, and a third side plate 150. The cabinet body assembly 100 is provided with a steam cavity 110 and an opening 120 communicating with the steam cavity 110. The steam cavity 110 is used to accommodate a rice steaming tray 300. The first side plate 130 and the second side plate 140 are oppositely arranged along a first direction. The first side plate 130 and the second side plate 140 are both accommodated in the steam cavity 110. The first side plate 130 is provided with a first support protrusion 131 for supporting one end of the rice steaming tray 300. The second side plate 140 is provided with a second support protrusion 141 for supporting the other end of the rice steaming tray 300. The third side plate 150 is accommodated in the steam cavity 110 and is oppositely arranged with the opening 120. A heat conducting surface 151 is provided on a side of the third side plate 150 facing the opening 120. The included angle between the heat conducting surface 151 and the horizontal plane is an acute angle to radiate heat to the rice steaming tray 300. In this way, it can not only uniformly heat the rice but also improve the rice steaming speed of the rice steaming cabinet.
[0034] Specifically, when the rice steaming cabinet works, both ends of the rice steaming tray 300 are respectively fixed in the steam cavity 110 by the first support protrusion 131 and the second support protrusion 141. Steam is generated at the bottom of the steam cavity 110, and the steam moves upward to heat the rice in the steam tray. By providing the heat conducting surface 151, when the steam in the steam cavity 110 rises, part of the steam can be blocked by the heat conducting surface 151, so that the steam can move from the third side plate 150 along the direction close to the opening 120. Moreover, the heat conducting surface 151 can also radiate part of the heat to the middle position of the rice steaming tray 300 to heat the rice located at the middle position in the rice steaming tray 300. It can not only uniformly heat the rice but also improve the rice steaming speed of the rice steaming cabinet, thereby improving the user experience.
[0035] It should be noted that a heating assembly 200 is provided at the bottom of the steam cavity 110. The heating assembly 200 is used to heat the water in the steam cavity 110 to generate steam. The heating assembly 200 can be a heating component such as a heating tube or a heating wire, which will not be elaborated here.
[0036] It should be pointed out that the guiding surface can be a planar structure or a curved surface structure, as long as it can radiate heat to the middle position of the rice steaming tray 300, and there is no limitation here.
[0037] It should be pointed out that the cabinet body assembly 100 includes a cabinet body 101 and a door body 102. The steam cavity 110 is provided in the cabinet body 101. The door body 102 is rotatably provided on the cabinet body 101 to open or close the opening 120, which can facilitate the user to take out or put in the rice steaming tray 300, and will not be elaborated here.
[0038] Refer to Figure 2, in some embodiments of the present utility model, a plurality of first supporting protrusions 131 and a plurality of second supporting protrusions 141 are both configured. The first supporting protrusions 131 and the second supporting protrusions 141 correspond to each other one by one, and a plurality of rice steaming trays 300 can be placed simultaneously, which can improve the rice steaming efficiency of the rice steaming cabinet.
[0039] Specifically, the plurality of first supporting protrusions 131 are arranged side by side at intervals in the up and down direction, and the plurality of second supporting protrusions 141 are arranged side by side at intervals in the up and down direction. Along the first direction, one end of the rice steaming tray 300 abuts against the first supporting protrusion 131, and the other end of the rice steaming tray 300 abuts against the second supporting protrusion 141. By repeating the above operation, a plurality of rice steaming trays 300 are sequentially installed in the steam cavity 110, and a plurality of rice steaming trays 300 can be heated simultaneously, which can improve the rice steaming efficiency of the rice steaming cabinet.
[0040] Refer to Figure 1 , Figure 4 , in some embodiments of the present utility model, the third side plate 150 includes a plate body and a plurality of heat conducting blocks 153 provided on the plate body. The plurality of heat conducting blocks 153 are arranged side by side at intervals along the first direction, and each heat conducting block 153 is provided with the heat conducting surface 151, which can facilitate the upward movement of steam to heat the rice in the rice steaming tray 300 located above, and can improve the rice steaming efficiency of the rice steaming cabinet.
[0041] Specifically, an avoidance groove is formed between adjacent heat conducting blocks 153. There is a first gap between the rice steaming tray 300 and the third side plate 150, and a second gap between the rice steaming tray 300 and the opening 120. When the rice steaming cabinet works, the steam is blocked by the rice steaming tray 300 located at the bottommost, so that the steam moves upward from the first gap and the second gap. When the steam contacts the heat conducting surface 151, part of the heat carried by the steam itself is radiated to the corresponding rice steaming tray 300, resulting in a reduction in the heat carried by the steam. If the avoidance groove is not provided, when the steam moves to the top of the steam cavity 110, the heat carried by the steam is too little. Compared with the rice steaming tray 300 located at the bottommost, the heating time of the rice in the rice steaming tray 300 located at the topmost is prolonged. In order to ensure that all the rice in the steam cavity 110 is cooked, the working time of the rice steaming cabinet needs to be prolonged, and the rice steaming efficiency of the rice steaming cabinet cannot be improved. In order to improve the rice steaming efficiency of the rice steaming cabinet, by providing the avoidance groove, part of the steam can directly pass through the heat conducting member from the avoidance groove, which can reduce the heat loss of the steam and make the heating time of the rice in the rice steaming tray 300 located at the topmost close to the heating time of the rice in the rice steaming tray 300 located at the bottommost.
[0042] In some embodiments of the present utility model, the heat conducting block 153 and the plate body are of an integral structure, which can reduce the number of molds, so as to reduce the production and manufacturing cost of the molds, and thus reduce the production and manufacturing cost of the rice steaming cabinet.
[0043] Specifically, the heat-conducting block 153 and the plate body can be integrally formed by stamping, which can reduce the number of molds, so as to reduce the production and manufacturing cost of the molds, and thus reduce the production and manufacturing cost of the rice cooker.
[0044] Of course, in some specific embodiments, the heat-conducting block 153 and the plate body can also be connected by bolting or welding, which will not be elaborated here. Among them, the welding methods include but are not limited to resistance welding, ultrasonic welding or resistance welding, which will not be elaborated here.
[0045] Refer to Figure 5 , in some embodiments of the present invention, a weight-reducing groove 154 is provided on the side of the heat-conducting block 153 away from the opening 120, which can reduce the overall weight of the third side plate 150, so as to facilitate the handling and assembly of the third side plate 150.
[0046] Specifically, each heat-conducting block 153 is respectively provided with a weight-reducing groove 154, and the weight-reducing groove 154 is recessed along the direction close to the opening 120, which can reduce the overall weight of the third side plate 150, so as to facilitate the handling and assembly of the third side plate 150.
[0047] Of course, in some specific embodiments, any several of the multiple heat-conducting blocks 153 may be provided with weight-reducing grooves 154, which is not limited here.
[0048] In some embodiments of the present invention, the weight-reducing groove 154 penetrates through to the surface of the third side plate 150 on the side away from the opening 120, which can facilitate the processing and manufacturing of the weight-reducing groove 154.
[0049] Specifically, when the third side plate 150 is processed and formed by stamping, the punching head of the stamping die punches the surface of the third side plate 150 on the side away from the opening 120, so that the surface of the third side plate 150 on the side away from the opening 120 is recessed to form a weight-reducing groove 154, while the surface of the third side plate 150 facing the opening 120 protrudes to form a heat-conducting block 153. The operation is simple, convenient and fast, which can facilitate the processing and manufacturing of the weight-reducing groove 154 to improve the production efficiency of the third side plate 150.
[0050] In some embodiments of the present invention, the heat-conducting block 153 has a frustum structure, which can prevent cracks from occurring at the connection position between the heat-conducting block 153 and the third side plate 150, and can improve the yield rate of the third side plate 150.
[0051] Specifically, the heat-conducting block 153 has four relatively large surfaces. Two of the four surfaces are oppositely arranged in the up-and-down direction, and the remaining two are oppositely arranged along the direction from the opening 120 to the third side plate 150. The lower surface of the heat-conducting block 153 is the heat-conducting surface 151. By setting the heat-conducting block 153 as a frustum structure, it is possible to avoid cracking at the connection position between the heat-conducting block 153 and the third side plate 150, and improve the yield rate of the third side plate 150.
[0052] It should be noted that the weight-reducing groove 154 correspondingly has a frustum structure. Along the recessed direction of the weight-reducing groove 154, the distance between the opposite side walls of the weight-reducing groove 154 gradually decreases, which will not be elaborated here.
[0053] Of course, in some specific embodiments, the heat-conducting block 153 can also be a frustum of a cone structure, which is not limited here.
[0054] In some embodiments of the present invention, multiple heat-conducting blocks 153 form heat-conducting units. There are multiple heat-conducting units configured, and the multiple heat-conducting units are arranged side by side at intervals in the up-and-down direction, which can radiate heat to the rice steaming trays 300 at different heights, so as to make the rice steaming in the rice steaming cabinet uniform.
[0055] Specifically, by setting multiple heat-conducting units, the array direction of the multiple heat-conducting units is the same as the array direction of the multiple first support protrusions 131, and at least one heat-conducting surface 151 is located between two adjacent first support protrusions 131, so that the heat-conducting surfaces 151 at different heights can radiate heat to the rice steaming trays 300 at different heights, so as to make the rice steaming in the rice steaming cabinet uniform.
[0056] It should be noted that two heat-conducting surfaces 151 are located between two adjacent first support protrusions 131, which can increase the receiving range of the rice steaming tray 300, so that the rice in the rice steaming tray 300 can be heated evenly, which will not be elaborated here.
[0057] In some embodiments of the present invention, along the direction from the opening 120 to the third side plate 150, the first support protrusions 131 and the heat-conducting blocks 153 are arranged at intervals, which can facilitate the upward movement of steam to the top of the steam cavity 110, so as to facilitate the heating of the rice steaming tray 300 at the uppermost position.
[0058] Specifically, there is a first gap between the rice steaming tray 300 and the third side plate 150. When the rice steaming cabinet is working, the steam is blocked by the rice steaming tray 300 at the lowermost position, so that some steam moves upward through the first gap, which can facilitate the upward movement of steam to the top of the steam cavity 110, so as to facilitate the heating of the rice steaming tray 300 at the uppermost position.
[0059] In some embodiments of the present utility model, the included angle between the heat-conducting surface 151 and the up-down direction is θ, and θ satisfies: 150° ≤ θ ≤ 170°, so that heat can be radiated to the surface of the rice in the rice steaming tray 300, facilitating the heating of the rice.
[0060] If θ < 150°, the included angle between the heat-conducting surface 151 and the surface of the third side plate 150 is too small. On the one hand, the heat-conducting surface 151 cannot radiate heat to the middle position of the rice steaming tray 300, and the rice cannot be steamed evenly. On the other hand, the resistance of the heat-conducting surface 151 to the steam is too large, affecting the upward movement speed of the steam and unable to improve the rice steaming efficiency of the rice steaming cabinet.
[0061] If θ > 170°, the included angle between the heat-conducting surface 151 and the surface of the third side plate 150 is too large. On the one hand, the heat-conducting surface 151 is replicated to the position near the opening 120 of the rice steaming tray 300. On the other hand, the heat-conducting surface 151 cannot guide the steam into the position between the two opposite rice steaming trays 300, and the rice steaming efficiency of the rice steaming cabinet cannot be improved.
[0062] If 150° ≤ θ ≤ 170°, on the one hand, the heat-conducting surface 151 can radiate heat to the middle position of the rice steaming tray 300 to heat the rice evenly. On the other hand, the heat-conducting surface 151 can guide the steam into the position between the two opposite rice steaming trays 300, and the rice steaming efficiency of the rice steaming cabinet can be improved.
[0063] The technical features of the above-described embodiments can be combined arbitrarily. For the sake of brevity of description, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, it should be considered to be within the scope described in this specification.
[0064] The above has described this embodiment in detail with reference to the drawings. However, the present utility model is not limited to the above embodiment. Within the knowledge scope of those of ordinary skill in the technical field, various changes can be made without departing from the purpose of the present utility model.
