Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of cooking appliances, and more particularly, to a cooking appliance. Background Art

[0002] In the related art, a cooking appliance includes a steaming cavity, a baking cavity, and a wind guiding assembly. The wind guiding assembly is provided with a first opening and a second opening. The cooking appliance further includes a first exhaust assembly and a second exhaust assembly. The first exhaust assembly connects the steaming cavity and the first opening, and the second exhaust assembly connects the baking cavity and the second opening. Multiple exhaust assemblies for connecting the steaming cavity, the baking cavity, and the wind guiding assembly are required, with many components and complex installation steps. In addition, the multiple exhaust assemblies occupy a large amount of the internal space of the cooking appliance. In this way, the installation space of the steaming cavity and the baking cavity will be indirectly squeezed. Summary of the Utility Model

[0003] The present application aims to solve at least one of the technical problems existing in the prior art or related art.

[0004] To this end, the present application provides a cooking appliance.

[0005] In view of this, the present application provides a cooking appliance, including: a housing assembly provided with an opening; a cooking body disposed inside the housing assembly, the cooking body being provided with a plurality of cooking cavities; a wind guiding assembly disposed between the housing assembly and the cooking body, the wind guiding assembly communicating with the opening; and an exhaust assembly disposed between the housing assembly and the cooking body, the exhaust assembly including an exhaust pipe and a plurality of diversion pipes, each cooking cavity communicating with the exhaust pipe through a diversion pipe, and the exhaust pipe communicating with the wind guiding assembly.

[0006] The cooking appliance provided by the present application includes a housing assembly, a cooking body, a wind guiding assembly, and an exhaust assembly.

[0007] The housing assembly is connected to the outside of the cooking body, and both the wind guiding assembly and the exhaust assembly are disposed between the housing assembly and the cooking body. That is, the wind guiding assembly and the exhaust assembly are located in the space surrounded by the housing assembly and the cooking body. The housing assembly is provided with an opening, and the opening communicates with the wind guiding assembly.

[0008] Among them, the cooking body is provided with a plurality of cooking cavities. Each cooking cavity is used to accommodate food materials to meet the usage requirements of various cooking functions of the cooking appliance. For example, one cooking cavity is a steaming cavity to meet the usage requirements when the cooking appliance starts the steaming function. For example, one cooking cavity is an oven to meet the usage requirements when the cooking appliance starts the baking function. For example, one cooking cavity is an air fryer cavity to meet the usage requirements when the cooking appliance starts the air frying function. Each cooking cavity corresponds to a cooking function of the cooking appliance. In this way, the situation of flavor mixing can be avoided, and the usage requirements of cooking food materials simultaneously using different cooking methods can also be met.

[0009] Among them, the exhaust assembly includes an exhaust pipe and a plurality of diversion pipes. The number of diversion pipes matches the number of cooking cavities, that is, the number of diversion pipes is equal to the number of cooking cavities. Each cooking cavity corresponds to one diversion pipe, and the number of exhaust pipes is one. Each diversion pipe is connected to the exhaust pipe. That is to say, multiple cooking cavities share the exhaust pipe of the exhaust assembly. Each cooking cavity is correspondingly connected to one diversion pipe, and the exhaust pipe is connected to the air guiding assembly. It can be understood that the gas in the cooking cavity flows through the diversion pipe to the exhaust pipe, then to the air guiding assembly, and then flows out of the cooking appliance through the opening.

[0010] This setting ensures the effectiveness and reliability of the connection between any one of the multiple cooking cavities and the exhaust assembly, while enabling multiple cooking cavities to share the exhaust pipe of the exhaust assembly. In this way, the material input of the exhaust assembly is reduced, and the device input connected to the air guiding assembly is reduced. That is to say, the number of parts of the cooking appliance is streamlined, the processes and steps of connecting the exhaust assembly and the air guiding assembly can be reduced, which is beneficial to reducing the assembly difficulty of the cooking appliance, can effectively avoid the situation of missed pipe connection during the assembly process of the cooking appliance, is beneficial to improving the assembly efficiency of the cooking appliance, is beneficial to reducing the production cost of the cooking appliance, and this setting is beneficial to reducing the internal space occupancy rate of the cooking appliance, does not occupy the installation space of multiple cooking cavities, and improves the use performance and market competitiveness of the product.

[0011] It can be understood that when the cooking appliance is working, the gas in multiple cooking cavities flows through the exhaust assembly to the air guiding assembly, and then flows out of the cooking appliance through the opening, so as to discharge the excess gas in multiple cooking cavities through the exhaust assembly and the air guiding assembly, making the pressure inside multiple cooking cavities reach balance, so as to avoid the situation that the performance of the whole machine is affected due to excessive pressure in the cooking cavity, and can ensure the safety and reliability of the use of the cooking appliance.

[0012] According to the cooking appliance described above in the present application, it may also have the following additional technical features:

[0013] In some embodiments, optionally, the exhaust assembly further includes: a diversion member, and a plurality of diversion pipes are connected to the exhaust pipe through the diversion member.

[0014] In this embodiment, the structure of the exhaust assembly is further defined.

[0015] The exhaust assembly further includes a diversion member.

[0016] A plurality of diversion pipes are connected to the exhaust pipe through the diversion member. That is to say, the diversion member is a device connecting a plurality of diversion pipes and the exhaust pipe to ensure the air flow path.

[0017] In some embodiments, optionally, the flow guide member includes: a flow guide block, a part of the flow guide block extends into the exhaust pipe, an end face of the part of the flow guide block located inside the exhaust pipe includes a flow guide surface, a convex portion is provided on the end face of the part of the flow guide block located inside the exhaust pipe, and the convex portion is located on one side of the flow guide surface; the flow guide member is provided with a first through hole and a second through hole, the first through hole penetrates through the flow guide block and the convex portion, the second through hole penetrates through the flow guide surface, the convex portion and the flow guide surface enclose a flow guide groove, the flow guide groove communicates with the second through hole, and either the first through hole or the second through hole communicates with a flow guide pipe.

[0018] In this embodiment, the matching structure of the flow guide member and the plurality of flow guide pipes is further defined.

[0019] Specifically, a part of the flow guide block extends into the exhaust pipe, that is, a part of the flow guide block is located inside the exhaust pipe, and another part of the flow guide block is located outside the exhaust pipe.

[0020] The end face of the part of the flow guide block located inside the exhaust pipe includes a flow guide surface, a convex portion is provided on the end face of the part of the flow guide block located inside the exhaust pipe, and the convex portion is located on one side of the flow guide surface. That is, both the flow guide surface and the convex portion are located inside the exhaust pipe, and the flow guide surface and the convex portion are located on the same side of the flow guide block.

[0021] The flow guide member is provided with a first through hole and a second through hole, the first through hole penetrates through the flow guide block and the convex portion, and the second through hole penetrates through the flow guide surface. The first through hole communicates a flow guide pipe and the exhaust pipe, and the second through hole communicates another flow guide pipe and the exhaust pipe.

[0022] The convex portion and the flow guide surface enclose a flow guide groove, and the flow guide groove communicates with the second through hole. The flow guide surface has the function of guiding the flow. The flow guide surface and the convex portion cooperate to effectively guide the condensed water. In this way, the condensed water in the exhaust assembly can flow to the second through hole through the flow guide groove, and return to a cooking cavity through the second through hole and a flow guide pipe.

[0023] That is to say, by reasonably setting the structure of the flow guide member, while ensuring effective communication between any one of the plurality of flow guide pipes and the exhaust pipe, it is also possible to realize the function of refluxing the condensed water inside the exhaust pipe, avoiding the situation that liquid accumulates in the exhaust assembly for a long time and generates peculiar smell, thereby affecting the cooking effect, and ensuring the hygiene and cleanliness of the cooking appliance during use.

[0024] It can be understood that the first through hole penetrates through the flow guide block and the convex portion, at least a part of the convex portion protrudes from the flow guide surface, and the flow guide groove has the function of accommodating condensed water. Since the convex portion is higher than the flow guide surface, the convex portion has the effect of blocking the condensed water from flowing to the first through hole, so that the condensed water in the flow guide groove can only return to the corresponding cooking cavity through the second through hole. That is to say, this setting realizes the directional diversion of the condensed water, so that the condensed water will return to a specific cooking cavity.

[0025] In some embodiments, optionally, the flow guide member further includes: a baffle, the baffle is disposed around the flow guide block, and the baffle abuts against the end of the exhaust pipe.

[0026] In this embodiment, the structure of the flow guide member is further defined.

[0027] The flow guide member further includes a baffle, the baffle is disposed around the flow guide block, that is, the baffle is connected to the circumferential side of the flow guide block. When the flow guide member is assembled with the exhaust pipe, the baffle abuts against the end of the exhaust pipe, and the baffle cooperates with the end of the exhaust pipe to define the length of the flow guide block extending into the exhaust pipe, which can ensure the matching dimensions of the flow guide member and the exhaust pipe.

[0028] In addition, the matching structure between the baffle and the exhaust pipe increases the contact area and contact angle between the flow guide member and the exhaust pipe, and can limit the flow guide member from all directions.

[0029] In some embodiments, optionally, the surface where the flow guide surface is located is an arc surface, and the axis of the second through hole passes through the lowest point of the arc surface; the distance from the lowest point of the arc surface to the side of the baffle facing away from the exhaust pipe is the minimum distance from the arc surface to the side of the baffle facing away from the exhaust pipe.

[0030] In this embodiment, the shape of the flow guide surface is further defined.

[0031] Specifically, the surface where the flow guide surface is located is an arc surface, and the axis of the second through hole passes through the lowest point of the arc surface. Among them, the distance from the lowest point of the arc surface to the side of the baffle facing away from the exhaust pipe is the minimum distance from the arc surface to the side of the baffle facing away from the exhaust pipe.

[0032] This setting makes there be a height difference between the convex part and the flow guide surface. In this way, under the blocking action of the convex part, the condensed water in the flow guide groove will not flow back to the corresponding cooking cavity through the first through hole, but will flow back to the corresponding cooking cavity through the second through hole penetrating the flow guide surface.

[0033] It can be understood that the present application reasonably sets the structure of the flow guide surface so that the axis of the second through hole passes through the lowest point of the arc surface. The convex part and the flow guide surface are combined to form a flow guide groove with low in the middle and high on both sides. In this way, the flow guide surface has the function of guiding, so that the condensed water in the flow guide groove can be effectively guided to the second through hole.

[0034] In addition, the surface where the flow guide surface is located is an arc surface, which also has the advantage of convenient processing and can effectively avoid the accumulation of condensed water in a certain part of the flow guide groove.

[0035] In some embodiments, optionally, the plurality of cooking cavities at least include a steaming cavity and a baking cavity; the plurality of flow guide pipes at least include a first flow guide pipe and a second flow guide pipe, the first flow guide pipe communicates with the first through hole and the baking cavity, and the second flow guide pipe communicates with the second through hole and the steaming cavity.

[0036] In this embodiment, the specific structures of the plurality of cooking cavities and the plurality of diversion pipes are further defined.

[0037] The plurality of cooking cavities at least include a steaming cavity and a baking cavity, and the plurality of diversion pipes at least include a first diversion pipe and a second diversion pipe. The first diversion pipe is used for cooperating with the baking cavity, and the second diversion pipe is used for cooperating with the steaming cavity.

[0038] Wherein, the first diversion pipe communicates with the first through hole and the baking cavity, and the second diversion pipe communicates with the second through hole and the steaming cavity.

[0039] In this way, the gas in the baking cavity can flow to the air guiding component via the first diversion pipe and the exhaust pipe, and the gas in the steaming cavity can flow to the air guiding component via the second diversion pipe and the exhaust pipe.

[0040] In addition, the condensed water in the exhaust component will flow to the second through hole via the diversion groove, and will flow back to the steaming cavity via the second through hole and the second diversion pipe. That is to say, the condensed water in the exhaust component will flow back to the steaming cavity. When the steaming cavity works, it is necessary to replenish water into the steaming cavity. Therefore, returning the condensed water to the steaming cavity can reuse the condensed water. If the condensed water flows back into the baking cavity, it will increase the water content in the baking cavity and affect the baking effect and taste of the food in the baking cavity. That is to say, by defining the flow path of the condensed water, while ensuring the cooking effect of the food, the situation that the exhaust component stores liquid for a long time and generates peculiar smell, thereby affecting the cooking effect, is avoided, and the hygiene and cleanliness of the cooking appliance can be ensured.

[0041] In some embodiments, optionally, the steaming cavity is provided with a connection hole, the connection hole is located at the back of the steaming cavity, and the connection hole communicates with the second diversion pipe.

[0042] In this embodiment, the structure of the steaming cavity is further defined.

[0043] Specifically, the steaming cavity is provided with a connection hole, the connection hole is located at the back of the steaming cavity, and the connection hole communicates with the second diversion pipe.

[0044] When the condensed water flows back into the steaming cavity via the second diversion pipe, the condensed water will flow back into the steaming cavity via the connection hole located at the back of the steaming cavity. That is to say, the flow path of the condensed water in the steaming cavity is defined. When the condensed water flows back into the steaming cavity, the condensed water will not drip on the food in the steaming cavity, and the situation of affecting the cooking taste of the food can be avoided.

[0045] In some embodiments, optionally, the cross-sectional area of the flow passage of the second diversion pipe is larger than that of the first diversion pipe.

[0046] In this embodiment, the cooperation structure of the first diversion pipe and the second diversion pipe is further defined.

[0047] Wherein, the cross-sectional area of the flow passage of the second diversion pipe is larger than that of the first diversion pipe.

[0048] The cross-sectional area of the second diversion pipe communicating with the steaming cavity is larger than that of the first diversion pipe communicating with the baking cavity. That is to say, when the cross-section of the diversion pipe is taken along the direction perpendicular to the length of the diversion pipe, in the cross-section, the area of the region enclosed by the inner contour line of the second diversion pipe is larger than the area of the region enclosed by the inner contour line of the first diversion pipe.

[0049] Since the exhaust gas requirements for the cooking appliance in the steaming function and the baking function are different, and the corresponding cavity pressures of the steaming cavity and the baking cavity during operation are different, therefore, the first diversion pipe and the second diversion pipe with different cross-sectional areas are provided to meet the cooking requirements in different cooking modes in a targeted manner, providing an effective and reliable structural support for ensuring the taste of the food materials in different cooking modes of the cooking appliance.

[0050] In some embodiments, optionally, along the height direction of the cooking appliance, the steaming cavity is located between the air guiding assembly and the baking cavity.

[0051] In this embodiment, the matching structure of the cooking body and the air guiding assembly is further defined.

[0052] Specifically, along the height direction of the cooking appliance, the steaming cavity is located between the air guiding assembly and the baking cavity. That is to say, along the height direction of the cooking appliance, the air guiding assembly is located above the cooking body.

[0053] More specifically, along the height direction of the cooking appliance, the steaming cavity is located between the air guiding assembly and the baking cavity.

[0054] In some embodiments, optionally, the exhaust pipe includes: a joint, the joint surrounds the outside of a plurality of diversion pipes, and the inner surface of the joint opposite to the end of the diversion pipe is arranged at an interval from the diversion pipe; a pipe body, the pipe body is connected between the joint and the air guiding assembly.

[0055] In this embodiment, the structure of the exhaust pipe is further defined.

[0056] Specifically, the exhaust pipe includes a joint and a pipe body, the pipe body is connected between the joint and the air guiding assembly, that is to say, the joint and the air guiding assembly are communicated through the pipe body.

[0057] Wherein, the joint surrounds the outside of a plurality of diversion pipes. That is to say, the cross-sectional area of the joint is larger than the cross-sectional area of each diversion pipe. That is to say, when the cross-section of the joint is taken along the direction perpendicular to the joint to the pipe body, in the cross-section, the area of the region enclosed by the inner contour line of the joint is larger than the area of the region enclosed by the inner contour line of the diversion pipe.

[0058] It can be understood that since the current-carrying cross-sectional area of the joint is larger than that of each diversion pipe, the pressure at the joint is lower than that at the diversion pipe. In this way, the air flow will flow towards the joint with a larger current-carrying cross-sectional area (i.e., lower pressure), rather than towards the diversion pipe with a smaller current-carrying cross-sectional area (i.e., higher pressure). That is to say, the flow path of the air flow between the multiple diversion pipes and the exhaust pipe is defined, so that the situation where the air flow at the exhaust pipe flows back to the multiple diversion pipes can be avoided, and the situation of flavor mixing can be avoided, providing a reliable structural support for ensuring the cooking taste of the food ingredients.

[0059] It can be understood that the inner surface of the joint arranged opposite to the end of the diversion pipe is spaced from the diversion pipe. That is to say, a diversion cavity is formed between the inner surface of the joint arranged opposite to the end of the diversion pipe and the end of the diversion pipe, so that the gas flowing from the multiple diversion pipes to the joint can be collected in the diversion cavity and effectively diverted to the pipe body. If the inner surface of the joint arranged opposite to the end of the diversion pipe abuts against the diversion pipe, the outward flow of the air flow in the diversion pipe will be blocked.

[0060] In some embodiments, optionally, the current-carrying cross-sectional area of the joint is larger than that of the pipe body.

[0061] In this embodiment, the matching structure of the joint and the pipe body is further defined.

[0062] Specifically, the current-carrying cross-sectional area of the joint is larger than that of the pipe body. That is to say, the joint and the pipe body are respectively sectioned along the direction perpendicular to the joint to the pipe body. In the section of the joint, the area of the region enclosed by the inner contour line of the joint is denoted as S1, and in the section of the pipe body, the area of the region enclosed by the inner contour line of the pipe body is denoted as S2, where S1 is greater than S2.

[0063] This setting can reduce the occupancy rate of the exhaust pipe in the internal space of the cooking appliance while ensuring the effectiveness and feasibility of the exhaust pipe guiding the air flow to the air guiding component, and will not occupy the installation space of the multiple cooking cavities.

[0064] In some embodiments, optionally, the air guiding component includes: an air guiding groove, the air guiding groove communicating with the exhaust pipe and the opening; a fan, the fan communicating with the air guiding groove.

[0065] In this embodiment, the structure of the air guiding component is further defined.

[0066] Specifically, the air guiding component includes an air guiding groove and a fan. The air guiding groove communicates with the exhaust pipe and the opening, and the fan communicates with the air guiding groove.

[0067] When the fan works, it can drive the gas in the multiple cooking cavities to flow through the exhaust component to the air guiding groove, then flow through the air guiding groove to the opening, and then flow out of the cooking appliance through the opening.

Detailed implementation manners

[0095] In order to more clearly understand the above objects, features and advantages of the present application, the present application will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific implementation manners. It should be noted that, without conflict, the embodiments of the present application and the features in the embodiments can be combined with each other.

[0096] In the following description, many specific details are set forth in order to fully understand the present application. However, the present application can also be implemented in other ways different from those described herein. Therefore, the protection scope of the present application is not limited by the specific embodiments disclosed below.

[0097] The following refers to Figures 1 to 23 A cooking appliance 10 according to some embodiments of the present application.

[0098] As Figure 1 、 Figure 2 、 Figure 3 、 Figure 4 、 Figure 5 、 Figure 6 、 Figure 8 、 Figure 9 、 Figure 10 、 Figure 11 、 Figure 13 、 Figure 14 、 Figure 16 、 Figure 18 and Figure 19 As shown, a cooking appliance 10 according to some embodiments of the present application includes a housing assembly 100, a cooking body 200, an air guiding assembly 300 and an exhaust assembly 400.

[0099] The housing assembly 100 is provided with an opening 110.

[0100] The cooking body 200 is disposed inside the housing assembly 100.

[0101] The cooking body 200 is provided with a plurality of cooking cavities 210.

[0102] The air guiding assembly 300 is disposed between the housing assembly 100 and the cooking body 200.

[0103] The air guiding assembly 300 is in communication with the opening 110.

[0104] The exhaust assembly 400 is disposed between the housing assembly 100 and the cooking body 200.

[0105] The exhaust assembly 400 includes an exhaust pipe 410 and a plurality of diversion pipes 420.

[0106] Each cooking cavity 210 is in communication with the exhaust pipe 410 through a diversion pipe 420, and the exhaust pipe 410 is in communication with the air guiding assembly 300.

[0107] The cooking appliance 10 provided by the present application includes a housing assembly 100, a cooking body 200, an air guiding assembly 300, and an exhaust assembly 400.

[0108] The housing assembly 100 is connected to the outer side of the cooking body 200, and both the air guiding assembly 300 and the exhaust assembly 400 are disposed between the housing assembly 100 and the cooking body 200. That is, the air guiding assembly 300 and the exhaust assembly 400 are located in the space surrounded by the housing assembly 100 and the cooking body 200. The housing assembly 100 is provided with an opening 110, and the opening 110 is in communication with the air guiding assembly 300.

[0109] Wherein, the cooking body 200 is provided with a plurality of cooking cavities 210. Each cooking cavity 210 is used to accommodate food materials to meet the use requirements of various cooking functions of the cooking appliance 10. For example, one cooking cavity 210 is a steaming cavity 210a to meet the use requirements when the cooking appliance 10 starts the steaming function. For example, one cooking cavity 210 is an oven to meet the use requirements when the cooking appliance 10 starts the baking function. For example, one cooking cavity 210 is an air frying cavity to meet the use requirements when the cooking appliance 10 starts the air frying function. Each cooking cavity 210 corresponds to a cooking function of the cooking appliance 10. In this way, the situation of flavor mixing can be avoided, and the use requirements of cooking food materials simultaneously by different cooking methods can also be met.

[0110] Among them, the exhaust assembly 400 includes an exhaust pipe 410 and a plurality of diversion pipes 420. The number of the diversion pipes 420 matches the number of the cooking cavities 210, that is, the number of the diversion pipes 420 is equal to the number of the cooking cavities 210. Each cooking cavity 210 corresponds to one diversion pipe 420. The number of the exhaust pipes 410 is one, and each diversion pipe 420 communicates with the exhaust pipe 410. That is to say, a plurality of cooking cavities 210 share the exhaust pipe 410 of one exhaust assembly 400. Each cooking cavity 210 is correspondingly connected to one diversion pipe 420, and the exhaust pipe 410 communicates with the air guiding assembly 300. It can be understood that the gas in the cooking cavity 210 flows through the diversion pipe 420 to the exhaust pipe 410, then to the air guiding assembly 300, and then flows out of the cooking appliance 10 through the opening 110.

[0111] This setting ensures the effectiveness and reliability of the connection between any one of the plurality of cooking cavities 210 and the exhaust assembly 400, and enables a plurality of cooking cavities 210 to share the exhaust pipe 410 of one exhaust assembly 400. In this way, the material input of the exhaust assembly 400 is reduced, and the device input connected to the air guiding assembly 300 is reduced. That is to say, the number of parts of the cooking appliance 10 is streamlined, the processes and steps of connecting the exhaust assembly 400 and the air guiding assembly 300 can be reduced, which is beneficial to reducing the assembly difficulty of the cooking appliance 10, effectively avoiding the situation of leaking pipe connection during the assembly process of the cooking appliance 10, improving the assembly efficiency of the cooking appliance 10, reducing the production cost of the cooking appliance 10, and this setting is beneficial to reducing the internal space occupancy rate of the cooking appliance 10, not squeezing the installation space of a plurality of cooking cavities 210, and improving the use performance and market competitiveness of the product.

[0112] It can be understood that when the cooking appliance 10 is working, the gas in a plurality of cooking cavities 210 flows through the exhaust assembly 400 to the air guiding assembly 300, and then flows out of the cooking appliance 10 through the opening 110, so as to discharge the redundant gas in the plurality of cooking cavities 210 through the exhaust assembly 400 and the air guiding assembly 300, making the pressure inside the plurality of cooking cavities 210 reach balance, so as to avoid the situation that the performance of the whole machine is affected due to excessive pressure in the cooking cavity 210, and ensuring the safety and reliability of the use of the cooking appliance 10.

[0113] Optionally, the housing assembly 100 is further provided with an air inlet and an air outlet. The air guiding assembly 300 also communicates with the air inlet and the air outlet. The gas in the environment can enter the cooking appliance 10 through the air inlet, flow through the air guiding assembly 300 to the air outlet, and then flow out of the cooking appliance 10 through the air outlet. The gas flowing through the air inlet and the air outlet can dissipate heat from the devices inside the cooking appliance 10, so as to reduce the working temperature of the electronic components inside the cooking appliance 10, ensure the safety and reliability of the use of the cooking appliance 10, and is beneficial to extending the service life of the cooking appliance 10.

[0114] In some embodiments, optionally, as Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 , Figure 6 , Figure 8 , Figure 9 , Figure 10 , Figure 11 , Figure 13 , Figure 14 , Figure 16 , Figure 18 , Figure 20 , Figure 21 , Figure 22 and Figure 23 shown, the exhaust assembly 400 further includes a flow guide member 430.

[0115] A plurality of flow guide pipes 420 communicate with the exhaust pipe 410 through the flow guide member 430.

[0116] In this embodiment, the structure of the exhaust assembly 400 is further defined.

[0117] The exhaust assembly 400 further includes a flow guide member 430.

[0118] A plurality of flow guide pipes 420 communicate with the exhaust pipe 410 through the flow guide member 430. That is, the flow guide member 430 serves as a device connecting the plurality of flow guide pipes 420 and the exhaust pipe 410 to ensure the flow path of the air flow.

[0119] In some embodiments, optionally, as Figure 6 , Figure 7 , Figure 14 , Figure 15 , Figure 16 , Figure 17 , Figure 22 and Figure 23 shown, the flow guide member 430 includes a flow guide block 432.

[0120] A part of the flow guide block 432 extends into the exhaust pipe 410.

[0121] The end face of the part of the flow guide block 432 located in the exhaust pipe 410 includes a flow guide surface 4322.

[0122] The end face of the part of the flow guide block 432 located in the exhaust pipe 410 is provided with a convex portion 434.

[0123] The convex portion 434 is located on one side of the flow guide surface 4322.

[0124] The flow guide member 430 is provided with a first through hole 436 and a second through hole 438.

[0125] The first through hole 436 penetrates through the flow guide block 432 and the convex portion 434.

[0126] The second through hole 438 penetrates through the flow guiding surface 4322.

[0127] The convex portion 434 and the flow guiding surface 4322 enclose a flow guiding groove 442.

[0128] The flow guiding groove 442 communicates with the second through hole 438.

[0129] Any one of the first through hole 436 and the second through hole 438 communicates with a flow guiding pipe 420.

[0130] In this embodiment, the matching structure of the flow guiding member 430 and the plurality of flow guiding pipes 420 is further defined.

[0131] Specifically, a part of the flow guiding block 432 extends into the exhaust pipe 410, that is, a part of the flow guiding block 432 is located inside the exhaust pipe 410, and another part of the flow guiding block 432 is located outside the exhaust pipe 410.

[0132] The end surface of the part of the flow guiding block 432 located inside the exhaust pipe 410 includes a flow guiding surface 4322, and a convex portion 434 is provided on the end surface of the part of the flow guiding block 432 located inside the exhaust pipe 410. The convex portion 434 is located on one side of the flow guiding surface 4322. That is, both the flow guiding surface 4322 and the convex portion 434 are located inside the exhaust pipe 410, and the flow guiding surface 4322 and the convex portion 434 are located on the same side of the flow guiding block 432.

[0133] The flow guiding member 430 is provided with a first through hole 436 and a second through hole 438. The first through hole 436 penetrates through the flow guiding block 432 and the convex portion 434, and the second through hole 438 penetrates through the flow guiding surface 4322. The first through hole 436 communicates a flow guiding pipe 420 and the exhaust pipe 410, and the second through hole 438 communicates another flow guiding pipe 420 and the exhaust pipe 410.

[0134] The convex portion 434 and the flow guiding surface 4322 enclose a flow guiding groove 442, and the flow guiding groove 442 communicates with the second through hole 438. The flow guiding surface 4322 has a function of guiding the flow. The flow guiding surface 4322 and the convex portion 434 cooperate to effectively guide the condensed water. In this way, the condensed water in the exhaust assembly 400 can flow to the second through hole 438 via the flow guiding groove 442, and return to a cooking cavity 210 via the second through hole 438 and a flow guiding pipe 420.

[0135] That is to say, by reasonably setting the structure of the flow guiding member 430, while ensuring effective communication between any one of the plurality of flow guiding pipes 420 and the exhaust pipe 410, the function of returning the condensed water inside the exhaust pipe 410 can also be realized, avoiding the situation that the exhaust assembly 400 stores liquid for a long time and generates peculiar smell, and further affecting the cooking effect, and ensuring the hygiene and cleanliness of the use of the cooking appliance 10.

[0136] It can be understood that the first through hole 436 penetrates through the diversion block 432 and the convex portion 434, at least a part of the convex portion 434 protrudes out of the diversion surface 4322, and the diversion groove 442 functions to hold condensed water. Since the convex portion 434 is higher than the diversion surface 4322, the convex portion 434 blocks the condensed water from flowing towards the first through hole 436, such that the condensed water in the diversion groove 442 can only flow back to the corresponding cooking cavity 210 via the second through hole 438. That is to say, this setting realizes the directional diversion of the condensed water, so that the condensed water will flow back into a specific cooking cavity 210.

[0137] In some other embodiments, the diversion member 430 further includes a plurality of other through holes. For example, the plurality of other through holes include a third through hole, a fourth through hole, and so on, which will not be listed one by one here. Each through hole communicates a diversion pipe 420 and an exhaust pipe 410.

[0138] In some embodiments, optionally, as Figure 16 、 Figure 17 and Figure 23 shown, the diversion surface 4322 extends from the connection between the convex portion 434 and the diversion block 432 to the side surface of the diversion block 432.

[0139] Along the first through hole 436 to the second through hole 438, the distance from the diversion surface 4322 to the plane where the end surface of the convex portion 434 is located gradually decreases.

[0140] In this embodiment, the mating structure of the diversion surface 4322 and the convex portion 434 is further defined.

[0141] Among them, the diversion surface 4322 extends from the connection between the convex portion 434 and the diversion block 432 to the side surface of the diversion block 432, and along the first through hole 436 to the second through hole 438, the distance from the diversion surface 4322 to the plane where the end surface of the convex portion 434 is located gradually decreases. For example, the plane where the end surface of the convex portion 434 is located is used as a reference plane, and along the first through hole 436 to the second through hole 438, the distance from the diversion surface 4322 to the reference plane gradually decreases. That is to say, the extending direction of the diversion surface 4322 is defined, and the positional relationship between the diversion surface 4322 and the convex portion 434 is defined.

[0142] This setting makes there be a height difference between the convex portion 434 and the diversion surface 4322. In this way, under the blocking action of the convex portion 434, the condensed water in the diversion groove 442 will not flow back into the corresponding cooking cavity 210 via the first through hole 436, but will flow back into the corresponding cooking cavity 210 via the second through hole 438 that penetrates the diversion surface 4322.

[0143] It can be understood that the structure of the diversion surface 4322 is reasonably set in this application, so that along the first through hole 436 to the second through hole 438, the distance from the diversion surface 4322 to the plane where the end face of the convex part 434 is located gradually decreases. That is, the connection between the convex part 434 and the diversion block 432 is the lowest point of the diversion surface 4322, and the connection between the side surface of the diversion block 432 and the diversion surface 4322 is the highest point of the diversion surface 4322. The convex part 434 and the diversion surface 4322 are combined to form a diversion groove 442 with a low middle and high sides. In this way, the diversion surface 4322 has the function of diversion, so that the condensed water in the diversion groove 442 can be effectively diverted to the second through hole 438.

[0144] In some embodiments, optionally, the diversion surface 4322 is an arc surface.

[0145] In this embodiment, the structure of the diversion surface 4322 is further defined.

[0146] Specifically, the diversion surface 4322 is an arc surface. This setting can meet the use requirement that along the first through hole 436 to the second through hole 438, the distance from the diversion surface 4322 to the plane where the end face of the convex part 434 is located gradually decreases. It also has the advantages of convenient processing and avoiding the accumulation of condensed water in a certain place of the diversion groove 442.

[0147] Optionally, the diversion surface 4322 is a circular arc surface.

[0148] In some embodiments, optionally, as Figure 6 、 Figure 7 、 Figure 14 、 Figure 15 、 Figure 16 、 Figure 17 、 Figure 21 、 Figure 22 and Figure 23 shown, the diversion member 430 further includes a baffle 440.

[0149] The baffle 440 is arranged around the diversion block 432.

[0150] The baffle 440 abuts against the end of the exhaust pipe 410.

[0151] In this embodiment, the structure of the diversion member 430 is further defined.

[0152] The diversion member 430 further includes a baffle 440. The baffle 440 is arranged around the diversion block 432, that is, the baffle 440 is connected to the peripheral side of the diversion block 432. When the diversion member 430 is assembled with the exhaust pipe 410, the baffle 440 abuts against the end of the exhaust pipe 410. The baffle 440 cooperates with the end of the exhaust pipe 410 to limit the length of the diversion block 432 extending into the exhaust pipe 410, and can ensure the matching dimensions of the diversion member 430 and the exhaust pipe 410.

[0153] In addition, the cooperation structure between the baffle 440 and the exhaust pipe 410 increases the contact area and contact angle between the flow guide member 430 and the exhaust pipe 410, and can limit the flow guide member 430 from all directions.

[0154] In some embodiments, optionally, the surface where the flow guide surface 4322 is located is an arc surface, and the axis of the second through hole 438 passes through the lowest point of the arc surface; the distance from the lowest point of the arc surface to the side of the baffle 440 facing away from the exhaust pipe 410 is the minimum distance from the arc surface to the side of the baffle 440 facing away from the exhaust pipe 410.

[0155] In this embodiment, the shape of the flow guide surface 4322 is further defined.

[0156] Specifically, the surface where the flow guide surface 4322 is located is an arc surface, and the axis of the second through hole 438 passes through the lowest point of the arc surface. Among them, the distance from the lowest point of the arc surface to the side of the baffle 440 facing away from the exhaust pipe 410 is the minimum distance from the arc surface to the side of the baffle 440 facing away from the exhaust pipe 410.

[0157] This setting makes a height difference between the convex portion 434 and the flow guide surface 4322. In this way, under the blocking action of the convex portion 434, the condensed water in the flow guide groove 442 will not flow back to the corresponding cooking cavity through the first through hole 436, but will flow back to the corresponding cooking cavity through the second through hole 438 penetrating the flow guide surface 4322.

[0158] It can be understood that the structure of the flow guide surface 4322 is reasonably set in this application, so that the axis of the second through hole 438 passes through the lowest point of the arc surface. The convex portion 434 and the flow guide surface 4322 are combined to form a flow guide groove 442 with a low middle and high sides. In this way, the flow guide surface 4322 has a flow guiding function, so that the condensed water in the flow guide groove 442 can be effectively guided to the second through hole 438.

[0159] In addition, the surface where the flow guide surface 4322 is located is an arc surface, which also has the advantage of convenient processing and can effectively prevent condensed water from accumulating in a certain place of the flow guide groove 442.

[0160] In some embodiments, optionally, as Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 shown, the plurality of cooking cavities 210 at least include a steaming cavity 210a and a baking cavity 210b.

[0161] The plurality of flow guide pipes 420 at least include a first flow guide pipe 420a and a second flow guide pipe 420b.

[0162] The first flow guide pipe 420a communicates with the first through hole 436 and the baking cavity 210b.

[0163] The second diversion tube 420b communicates with the second through-hole 438 and the steaming cavity 210a.

[0164] In this embodiment, the specific structures of the plurality of cooking cavities 210 and the plurality of diversion tubes 420 are further defined.

[0165] The plurality of cooking cavities 210 at least include a steaming cavity 210a and a baking cavity 210b, and the plurality of diversion tubes 420 at least include a first diversion tube 420a and a second diversion tube 420b. The first diversion tube 420a is used for cooperating with the baking cavity 210b, and the second diversion tube 420b is used for cooperating with the steaming cavity 210a.

[0166] Wherein, the first diversion tube 420a communicates with the first through-hole 436 and the baking cavity 210b, and the second diversion tube 420b communicates with the second through-hole 438 and the steaming cavity 210a.

[0167] In this way, the gas in the baking cavity 210b can flow to the air guiding assembly 300 via the first diversion tube 420a and the exhaust pipe 410, and the gas in the steaming cavity 210a can flow to the air guiding assembly 300 via the second diversion tube 420b and the exhaust pipe 410.

[0168] In addition, the condensed water in the exhaust assembly 400 will flow to the second through-hole 438 via the diversion groove 442, and will flow back to the steaming cavity 210a via the second through-hole 438 and the second diversion tube 420b. That is to say, the condensed water in the exhaust assembly 400 will flow back to the steaming cavity 210a. When the steaming cavity 210a works, water needs to be replenished into the steaming cavity 210a. Therefore, returning the condensed water to the steaming cavity 210a can reuse the condensed water. If the condensed water flows back into the baking cavity 210b, the water content in the baking cavity 210b will increase, which will affect the baking effect and taste of the food in the baking cavity 210b. That is to say, by defining the flow path of the condensed water, while ensuring the cooking effect of the food, the situation that the exhaust assembly 400 stores liquid for a long time and generates peculiar smell, thereby affecting the cooking effect, can be avoided, and the hygiene and cleanliness of the cooking appliance 10 can be ensured.

[0169] Optionally, the number of the steaming cavities 210a is at least one.

[0170] Optionally, the number of the baking cavities 210b is at least one.

[0171] In some embodiments, optionally, as Figure 2 shown, the steaming cavity 210a is provided with a connection hole 212.

[0172] The connection hole 212 is located at the back of the steaming cavity 210a, and the connection hole 212 communicates with the second diversion tube 420b.

[0173] In this embodiment, the structure of the steaming cavity 210a is further defined.

[0174] Specifically, the steaming cavity 210a is provided with a connection hole 212. The connection hole 212 is located at the back of the steaming cavity 210a, and the connection hole 212 communicates with the second diversion pipe 420b.

[0175] When the condensed water flows back into the steaming cavity 210a via the second diversion pipe 420b, the condensed water will flow back into the steaming cavity 210a via the connection hole 212 located at the back of the steaming cavity 210a. That is to say, the flow path of the condensed water in the steaming cavity 210a is defined. When the condensed water flows back into the steaming cavity 210a, the condensed water will not drip on the food in the steaming cavity 210a, and the situation of affecting the cooking taste of the food can be avoided.

[0176] Optionally, the connection hole 212 is provided at the top of the steaming cavity 210a, and the connection hole 212 is adjacent to the back of the steaming cavity 210a.

[0177] Optionally, the connection hole 212 is provided at the back of the steaming cavity 210a.

[0178] In some embodiments, optionally, the cross-sectional area of the flow-through section of the second diversion pipe 420b is larger than the cross-sectional area of the flow-through section of the first diversion pipe 420a.

[0179] In this embodiment, the matching structure of the first diversion pipe 420a and the second diversion pipe 420b is further defined.

[0180] Wherein, the cross-sectional area of the flow-through section of the second diversion pipe 420b is larger than the cross-sectional area of the flow-through section of the first diversion pipe 420a.

[0181] The cross-sectional area of the flow-through section of the second diversion pipe 420b communicating with the steaming cavity 210a is larger than the cross-sectional area of the flow-through section of the first diversion pipe 420a communicating with the baking cavity 210b. That is to say, the cross-section of the diversion pipe 420 is made along the length direction perpendicular to the diversion pipe 420. In the cross-section, the area of the region enclosed by the inner contour line of the second diversion pipe 420b is larger than the area of the region enclosed by the inner contour line of the first diversion pipe 420a.

[0182] Since the exhaust gas requirements of the cooking appliance 10 are different when it is in the steaming function and the baking function, and the corresponding cavity pressures of the steaming cavity 210a and the baking cavity 210b are different during operation, therefore, the first diversion pipe 420a and the second diversion pipe 420b with different cross-sectional areas of the flow-through section are provided to meet the cooking requirements in different cooking modes in a targeted manner, providing an effective and reliable structural support for ensuring the taste of the food in the cooking appliance 10 in different cooking modes.

[0183] Optionally, the first diversion pipe 420a is in interference fit with the first through hole 436, and the second diversion pipe 420b is in interference fit with the second through hole 438.

[0184] Optionally, the first flow guide pipe 420a is snap-fitted with the first through hole 436, and the second flow guide pipe 420b is snap-fitted with the second through hole 438.

[0185] Optionally, the first flow guide pipe 420a is adhesively fitted with the first through hole 436, and the second flow guide pipe 420b is adhesively fitted with the second through hole 438.

[0186] Optionally, the first flow guide pipe 420a includes a first sub-pipe 422 and an adapter 424. The first sub-pipe 422 connects the first through hole 436 and the adapter 424, and the adapter 424 connects the baking cavity 210b.

[0187] Optionally, the second flow guide pipe 420b includes a second sub-pipe 426 and a connecting elbow 428. The second sub-pipe 426 connects the second through hole 438 and the connecting elbow 428, and the connecting elbow 428 connects the steamer.

[0188] In some embodiments, optionally, along the height direction of the cooking appliance 10, the steaming cavity 210a is located between the air guiding assembly 300 and the baking cavity 210b.

[0189] In this embodiment, the mating structure of the cooking body 200 and the air guiding assembly 300 is further defined.

[0190] Specifically, along the height direction of the cooking appliance 10, the steaming cavity 210a is located between the air guiding assembly 300 and the baking cavity 210b. That is, along the height direction of the cooking appliance 10, the air guiding assembly 300 is located above the cooking body 200.

[0191] More specifically, along the height direction of the cooking appliance 10, the steaming cavity 210a is located between the air guiding assembly 300 and the baking cavity 210b.

[0192] In some embodiments, optionally, as Figure 6 , Figure 7 , Figure 8 , Figure 9 , Figure 10 , Figure 11 , Figure 12 , Figure 13 , Figure 14 , Figure 15 , Figure 16 , Figure 17 and Figure 18 shown, the exhaust pipe 410 includes a joint 412 and a pipe body 414.

[0193] The joint 412 surrounds the outside of the plurality of flow guide pipes 420, and the inner surface of the joint 412 opposite to the end of the flow guide pipe 420 is arranged at an interval from the flow guide pipe 420.

[0194] The pipe body 414 is connected between the joint 412 and the air guiding assembly 300.

[0195] In this embodiment, the structure of the exhaust pipe 410 is further defined.

[0196] Specifically, the exhaust pipe 410 includes a joint 412 and a pipe body 414. The pipe body 414 is connected between the joint 412 and the air guiding assembly 300. That is, the joint 412 and the air guiding assembly 300 are communicated through the pipe body 414.

[0197] Wherein, the joint 412 surrounds the outer sides of a plurality of diversion pipes 420. That is, the cross-sectional area of the flow passage of the joint 412 is larger than the cross-sectional area of the flow passage of each diversion pipe 420. That is, when a cross-section is made of the joint 412 along the direction perpendicular to the joint 412 to the pipe body 414, in the cross-section, the area of the region enclosed by the inner contour line of the joint 412 is larger than the area of the region enclosed by the inner contour line of the diversion pipe 420.

[0198] It can be understood that since the cross-sectional area of the flow passage of the joint 412 is larger than the cross-sectional area of the flow passage of each diversion pipe 420, therefore, the pressure at the joint 412 is lower than the pressure at the diversion pipe 420. In this way, the air flow will flow towards the joint 412 with a larger cross-sectional area of the flow passage (that is, a lower pressure), rather than flowing towards the diversion pipe 420 with a smaller cross-sectional area of the flow passage (that is, a higher pressure). That is to say, the flow path of the air flow between the plurality of diversion pipes 420 and the exhaust pipe 410 is defined. In this way, the situation that the air flow at the exhaust pipe 410 flows back to the plurality of diversion pipes 420 can be avoided, and the situation of odor mixing can be avoided, providing a reliable structural support for ensuring the cooking taste of the food materials.

[0199] It can be understood that the inner surface of the joint 412 opposite to the end of the diversion pipe 420 is arranged at an interval from the diversion pipe 420. That is, a diversion cavity is formed between the inner surface of the joint 412 opposite to the end of the diversion pipe 420 and the end of the diversion pipe 420, so that the gas flowing from the plurality of diversion pipes 420 to the joint 412 can be collected in the diversion cavity and effectively diverted to the pipe body 414. If the inner surface of the joint 412 opposite to the end of the diversion pipe 420 abuts against the diversion pipe 420, the outflow of the air flow in the diversion pipe 420 will be blocked.

[0200] Optionally, the cross-sectional area of the flow passage of the second diversion pipe 420b is smaller than the cross-sectional area of the joint 412, and the cross-sectional area of the flow passage of the second diversion pipe 420b is larger than the cross-sectional area of the first diversion pipe 420a.

[0201] In some embodiments, optionally, the cross-sectional area of the flow passage of the joint 412 is larger than the cross-sectional area of the pipe body 414.

[0202] In this embodiment, the mating structure of the joint 412 and the pipe body 414 is further defined.

[0203] Specifically, the cross-sectional area of the flow passage of the joint 412 is larger than that of the pipe body 414. That is, the joint 412 and the pipe body 414 are respectively sectioned along a direction perpendicular to the joint 412 to the pipe body 414. In the cross-section of the joint 412, the area of the region enclosed by the inner contour line of the joint 412 is denoted as S1, and in the cross-section of the pipe body 414, the area of the region enclosed by the inner contour line of the pipe body 414 is denoted as S2, where S1 is greater than S2.

[0204] This setting can reduce the occupancy rate of the exhaust pipe 410 in the internal space of the cooking appliance 10 while ensuring the effectiveness and feasibility of guiding the flow of the exhaust pipe 410 to the air guiding assembly 300, and will not occupy the installation space of the multiple cooking cavities 210.

[0205] In some embodiments, optionally, as Figure 2 shown, the air guiding assembly 300 includes an air guiding groove 310 and a blower 320.

[0206] The air guiding groove 310 communicates with the exhaust pipe 410 and the opening 110.

[0207] The blower 320 communicates with the air guiding groove 310.

[0208] In this embodiment, the structure of the air guiding assembly 300 is further defined.

[0209] Specifically, the air guiding assembly 300 includes an air guiding groove 310 and a blower 320. The air guiding groove 310 communicates with the exhaust pipe 410 and the opening 110, and the blower 320 communicates with the air guiding groove 310.

[0210] When the blower 320 operates, it can drive the gas in the multiple cooking cavities 210 to flow through the exhaust assembly 400 to the air guiding groove 310, then flow through the air guiding groove 310 to the opening 110, and then flow out of the cooking appliance 10 through the opening 110.

[0211] As Figure 1 shown, the housing assembly 100 includes a rear outer cover 120, a left outer cover 130, a top outer cover 140, a right outer cover 150, a first oven door 160, and a second oven door 170. The first oven door 160 is used to open or close the roasting cavity 210b, and the second oven door 170 is used to open or close the steaming cavity 210a. Among them, an opening 110 is enclosed between the second oven door 170 and the control panel 500.

[0212] Optionally, the exhaust assembly 400 of the present application includes an exhaust pipe 410, a first diversion pipe 420a, and a second diversion pipe 420b. The first diversion pipe 420a communicates with the exhaust pipe 410 and the baking cavity 210b, and the second diversion pipe 420b communicates with the exhaust pipe 410 and the steaming cavity 210a. That is to say, the steaming cavity 210a and the baking cavity 210b share an exhaust pipe 410.
