[0038] The following will describe the technical solution in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. All other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments without creative work belong to the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0039] This intelligent cooking machine includes a table machine 200 and a cover machine 100; an induction cooker with a positioning ring 210 on the tabletop and its control unit are installed on the table machine 200, and the cooking pot 70 is exactly limited in its cooking position by the positioning ring 210.

[0040] An open - cover mechanism 50 for connecting and installing the cover machine 100 is provided on the tabletop of the table machine 200. The cover machine 100 is hingedly installed on the open - cover mechanism 50, and the cover machine 100 can be positively buckled downward on the cooking pot 70 to ensure a small cooking environment for the cooking pot 70. To ensure the sealing of the small environment and prevent the soup from splashing during cooking, a sealing silica gel ring 103 is provided at the buckling port of the cover machine 100. The silica gel ring is fixed on a metal lining ring 104 of the same size. A magnetic snap 105 magnetically coupled with a magnet 106 fixed inside the cover machine 100 is provided on the metal lining ring 104. The silica gel ring 103 is detachably connected to the cover machine 100 by magnetic attraction, and can be conveniently disassembled and cleaned.

[0041] A locking block 130 for locking the pot handle and restricting the position of the cooking pot is also fixedly provided on the cover machine 100. The locking block 130 is fixedly installed on the circumference of the cover machine 100. When the cover machine 100 is buckled on the cooking pot 70, its pot handle just fits into the groove of the locking block 130, so that the cooking pot 70 cannot rotate randomly during cooking.

[0042] A stirring claw 30 is rotatably installed in the center of the cover machine 100, and is drivingly connected with a stirring claw driving mechanism 31 inside the cover machine.

[0043] As Figure 3 shown, a foodstuff feeding port 150 and a lunch box slideway 120 extending towards the foodstuff feeding port 150 are also provided on the cover machine 100. The foodstuff feeding port 150 is a channel port on the cover machine 100 through which foodstuffs can be directly put into the cooking pot 70 without opening the cover machine 100 when the cover machine 100 is buckled on the cooking pot 70.

[0044] Moreover, in this application, a pre - prepared foodstuff lunch box slides along the slideway, and while mechanically tearing off its sealing film, the lunch box 121 with the sealing film torn off is moved towards the feeding port 150, and the pre - prepared foodstuffs in the box automatically fall into the cooking pot 70, completely without manual operation.

[0045] As Figure 3As shown, inside the feeding port 150 near one side of the lunch box slideway 120, a film tearing shaft 140 is rotatably provided perpendicular to the feeding direction of the lunch box slideway 120, and is connected by a coupling drive to the film tearing motor 111 of the shaft drive mechanism inside the capping machine 100. For the said film tearing shaft 140, a hook 141 for hooking the film tearing hole of the lunch box sealing film is provided in the middle thereof.

[0046] For the said lunch box slideway 120, its slideway plane and the side of the feeding port 150 near the lunch box slideway 120 are preferably on the same horizontal plane. For the said film tearing shaft 140, the axial line of its upper shaft surface is preferably not higher than the plane where the side of the feeding port 150 near the lunch box slideway 120 is located.

[0047] In this embodiment, for the said film tearing shaft 140, a guiding groove 143 for fitting the triangular tearing head of the lunch box sealing film is provided on the middle shaft section thereof. In this way, it is easier to reliably roll up the lunch box sealing film after the hook 141 is hooked into the film tearing hole, while the lunch box is pressed between the rails of the lunch box slideway 120. The combined action of the two forces forces the lunch box to move forward while opening the lunch box, and the ingredients therein automatically fall into the cooking pot from the feeding port 150.

[0048] To prevent the lunch box from tilting during the film tearing process of the film tearing shaft 140, an inwardly buckled bending part 122 is provided on the lunch box slideway 120, and the inwardly buckled width of this bending part is preferably the same as the width of the lunch box sealing edge.

[0049] For the said guiding groove 143, the two side walls 142 thereof are outwardly inclined planes from the groove bottom to the shaft surface, which can enable the triangular tearing head of the lunch box sealing film to be gently and stably embedded into the guiding groove 143.

[0050] In this embodiment, the inner shaft end of the said stirring claw 30 is shaft-connected to the output shaft 112 of the stirring claw drive mechanism 31 inside the capping machine 100 through a coupling.

[0051] In this embodiment, the stirring claw drive mechanism 31 is connected to drive the said output shaft 112 through a first-stage shaft output. The first-stage shaft output is a bevel gear steering drive mechanism, and the driven gear shaft is the output shaft 112 of the stirring claw drive mechanism 31.

[0052] The said coupling includes a shaft coupling head 10 and a shaft coupling seat 20 connected by locking and inserting, as Figure 5 shown, the locking and inserting direction of the two is perpendicular to the axial direction of the shaft body rotatably fitted thereon.

[0053] As Figure 6 shown, the said shaft coupling head 10 is a cuboid component. The inner shaft 34 of the stirring claw 30 passes through the shaft hole at the center of the shaft coupling head 10 through a bearing 13, is axially limited, and is rotationally assembled with the shaft coupling head 10. The inner shaft end of the stirring claw 30 extends out of the shaft hole of the shaft coupling head 10, and a tenon 12 for tenon and mortise insertion connection with the shaft end of the output shaft 112 of the stirring claw drive mechanism 31 is provided thereon.

[0054] The described shaft coupling head 10 is provided with a plugging and sliding opening 11 that is lock-inserted and cooperates with the shaft coupling seat 20. As Figure 5 shown, taking the inner shaft axis of the stirring claw 30 as the symmetry line, plugging and sliding openings 11 that are lock-inserted and cooperate with the shaft coupling seat 20 are symmetrically arranged on the left and right sides of the shaft coupling head 10, and the direction of the plugging and sliding opening 11 is perpendicular to the axial direction of the inner shaft of the stirring claw 30.

[0055] The described shaft coupling seat 20 is composed of a locking groove part 22 and a chassis 21 below the locking groove part 22.

[0056] As Figure 5 shown, the described chassis 21, as the support base of the locking groove part 22, is preferably a disc-shaped rigid support body.

[0057] The locking groove part 22 therein is composed of a base platform 27 and a slideway 220 on the base platform 27. The slideway 220 is in sliding cooperation with the plugging and sliding opening 11 of the shaft coupling head. After the shaft coupling head 10 and the shaft coupling seat 20 are lock-inserted and cooperated, the upper plane of the base platform 27 is joined with the lower plane 102 of the shaft coupling head 10.

[0058] The locking groove part 22 is provided with a shaft hole for rotating and assembling the output shaft 112 of the stirring claw driving mechanism 31 at the center of the slideway 220. The output shaft 112 of the stirring claw driving mechanism 31 passes through the shaft hole, is axially limited by a bearing 24, and is rotationally assembled in the shaft hole of the shaft coupling seat 20. An mortise opening 26 for mortise and tenon connection with the tenon head 12 at the shaft end of the inner shaft of the stirring claw 30 is provided at the shaft end that extends into the base platform 27 at the same height. The same height means that the axial end face of the output shaft 112 of the stirring claw driving mechanism 31 is at most at the same height as the upper plane of the base platform 27.

[0059] One end of the described slideway 220 is open for introducing the shaft coupling head 10, and a shaft head channel 25 leading to the shaft hole in the same direction as the slideway 220 is provided on the same side of the base platform 27 as the open end. The shaft head channel 25 is a channel for the shaft end of the inner shaft of the stirring claw 30 to pass through when the shaft coupling head 10 slides into the slideway 220.

[0060] A limiting platform 23 is provided in the middle of the tail end of the described slideway 220. During the lock-insertion connection between the shaft coupling head 10 and the shaft coupling seat 20, the rear end face 101 of the shaft coupling head 10 finally cooperates with the limiting platform 23 for limiting, preventing the shaft coupling head 10 from further sliding when the shaft connection position is reached. At this time, the tenon head 12 at the inner shaft end of the stirring claw 30 passes through the shaft head channel 25 and slides into the mortise opening 26 of the output shaft 112 of the stirring claw driving mechanism 31, and the two shafts are mortise and tenon connected to achieve coaxial connection.

[0061] As can be seen from the above, the separation of the two shafts is the reverse operation of the above shaft coupling process.
