[0028] Please refer to Figure 1 , in one embodiment, a seasoning adding mechanism of a cooking machine includes a box body 1. Inside the box body 1, a control box 2, a detection component 3, and a driving component 4 are arranged. The control box 2 is electrically connected to the detection component 3 and the driving component 4. A plurality of seasoning pipes 5 are arranged on the detection component 3. One end of the driving component 4 is connected to a seasoning area 6 arranged on the box body 1, and the other end of the driving component 4 is connected to the plurality of seasoning pipes 5. The ends of the plurality of seasoning pipes 5 far from the driving component 4 are connected to a confluence plate 8. The confluence plate 8 is provided with a plurality of feed ports and one discharge port. The plurality of feed ports are connected to the plurality of seasoning pipes 5.

[0029] Furthermore, the confluence plate 8 is inclined and arranged inside the box body 1, which can ensure that the liquid seasoning fully flows into the cooking pot body, reducing the situation where the liquid seasoning remains in the confluence plate 8. Conical connection ports are arranged on the plurality of feed ports, which can play a role in sealed connection.

[0030] It can be understood that by arranging a plurality of seasoning pipes 5, the addition of various seasonings can be satisfied. At the same time, by integrating all the seasoning pipes 5 using the confluence plate 8, it is ensured that the final discharge of all the seasoning pipes 5 is along a specified outlet for feeding, which can keep the lengths of the plurality of seasoning pipes 5 consistent, reduce the occupation of the internal space of the box body 1, reduce the complexity, and is beneficial to reducing the overall volume of the box body 1 of the cooking machine, making the cooking machine more lightweight and convenient as a whole. At the same time, by using the detection component 3, it can detect whether the air in the seasoning pipes 5 is completely emptied, and then calculate the discharge amount of the seasoning, so that the addition amount of the seasoning can be grasped more accurately, effectively improving the taste of the dishes.

[0031] Specifically, please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 3 , Figure 4, on the basis of the above embodiments, the detection component 3 includes a placement plate 301, a seasoning detection sensor 302, and a cover plate 303. A plurality of grooves for placing the seasoning pipes 5 are formed on the placement plate 301. A seasoning detection sensor 302 and a cover plate 303 are arranged on one side of the placement plate 301 at the groove, and the seasoning detection sensor 302 is arranged between the cover plate 303 and the placement plate 301.

[0032] Furthermore, the seasoning detection sensor 302 can be a capacitance sensor or a pressure sensor. In this embodiment, the capacitance sensor is taken as an example for illustration. It should be noted that, for the sake of distinction, the capacitance sensor adopted in this embodiment is expressed as the first capacitance sensor.

[0033] It can be understood that the first capacitance sensor is attached to the surface of the seasoning pipe 5. At the beginning, the first capacitance sensor detects the medium in the plurality of seasoning pipes 5 by contacting the surface of the seasoning pipe 5. Since the capacitance rates of air and liquid are quite different, by monitoring the value of the capacitance sensor, it can be determined whether there is air in each seasoning pipe 5. When the capacitance value is high, it indicates that there may still be air in the seasoning pipe 5 and it needs to be emptied continuously; once it is detected that the air in the seasoning pipe 5 has been completely emptied, the dosage delivery of the liquid seasoning is started. By tracking the capacitance sensor readings and combining the geometric parameters (such as length, diameter, etc.) of each pipe, the volume or weight of the liquid can be accurately calculated, so as to monitor and control the delivery amount of the liquid seasoning; through the above design, the counting accuracy of the seasoning can be effectively improved, and thus the taste of the dishes can be improved.

[0034] Specifically, please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 , on the basis of the above embodiments, the driving component 4 includes a mounting plate 401 and a plurality of negative pressure pumps 402. The mounting plate 401 is arranged inside the box body 1, and a plurality of negative pressure pumps 402 are arranged on the mounting plate 401. The plurality of negative pressure pumps 402 are electrically connected to the control box 2.

[0035] It can be understood that the negative pressure pump 402 is provided with an input pipe and an output pipe, and valves are arranged on the input pipe and the output pipe. The input pipe is used to connect with the seasoning area 6 and pump out the liquid seasoning in the seasoning area 6, and the output pipe is used to connect with the seasoning pipe 5 and convey the liquid seasoning into the seasoning pipe 5.

[0036] Specifically, please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 6 , Figure 7, on the basis of the above-mentioned embodiments, a plurality of accommodating cavities are formed in the seasoning area 6, and at least one seasoning box 10 is arranged in each accommodating cavity. The seasoning box 10 is connected to the driving component 4 through a sealing component 7; further, the seasoning box 10 includes a box body 1001 and an upper cover 1002. An adsorption tube 1003 is arranged inside the box body 1001. One end of the adsorption tube 1003 passes through the box body 1 and is connected to the sealing component 7, and the other end of the adsorption tube 1003 extends towards the bottom of the box body 1001.

[0037] It can be understood that by opening the upper cover 1002, the user can add liquid seasoning to the box body 1001, and the adsorption tube 1003 can adsorb the liquid seasoning in the box body 1001, so as to transport it into the seasoning tube 5. The overall structure is simple, convenient and practical.

[0038] Specifically, please refer to Figure 6 , Figure 7 , on the basis of the above-mentioned embodiments, the sealing component 7 includes a plug 701, a sealing sleeve 702 and a sealing plate 703. One end of the adsorption tube 1003 passing through the box body 1 is provided with a threaded part, on which a plug 701 and a sealing ring are arranged. A sealing plate 703 is arranged on the box body 1, and a sealing sleeve 702 is arranged on the sealing plate 703. The sealing sleeve 702 is connected to the plug 701.

[0039] It can be understood that by arranging the plug 701, the sealing ring, the sealing sleeve 702 and the sealing plate 703, the problem of leakage of liquid seasoning during transportation can be effectively prevented, and the sealing performance can be improved.

[0040] Specifically, please refer to Figure 5 , Figure 6 , on the basis of the above-mentioned embodiments, a monitoring component 9 is further included, and the monitoring component 9 penetrates through the box body 1 and is connected to the box body 1001.

[0041] It can be understood that the monitoring component 9 includes a second capacitance sensor and a horn. The second capacitance sensor is connected to the control box 2. When the liquid seasoning in the seasoning box 10 increases or decreases, it will affect the capacitance between the two poles of the second capacitance sensor. By continuously monitoring and comparing the real-time capacitance value with the preset value, it can be determined whether the content of the liquid seasoning is lower than the preset value; the second capacitance sensor can be used to detect the content of the liquid seasoning in the seasoning box 10 in real time. When the liquid seasoning in the seasoning box 10 is lower than the preset value, the horn can be triggered to timely remind the user to supplement the liquid seasoning.

[0042] In summary, for a seasoning adding mechanism of a cooking machine, when in use, the seasoning detection sensor 302 is used to detect whether there is air in the seasoning pipe 5. When it is detected that there is air in the seasoning pipe 5, the control box 2 uses the negative pressure pump 402 to discharge the air in the seasoning pipe 5. When it is detected that the air in the seasoning pipe 5 is emptied, the control box 2 controls the negative pressure pump 402 to extract the liquid seasoning in the seasoning box 10. Subsequently, the liquid seasoning enters the confluence plate 8 from the seasoning pipe 5. The liquid seasonings in different pipes finally converge on the confluence plate 8 and fall into the cooking pot body from the discharge port on the confluence plate 8. The whole seasoning conveying process is simple, without the need to layout different seasoning pipes 5 at different positions, and overall, the occupied space of the seasoning pipe 5 can be reduced, and the seasoning counting accuracy can be improved. At the same time, the monitoring component 9 can be used to monitor the content of the liquid seasoning in the seasoning box 10 in real time, and can timely remind the user to replenish when the liquid seasoning is lower than the preset value.

[0043] It should be noted that in this article, the terms "include", "comprise" or any other variant thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, so that a process, device, article or method including a series of elements not only includes those elements, but also includes other elements not expressly listed, or further includes elements inherent to such process, device, article or method. Without further limitation, an element defined by the statement "including a..." does not exclude the existence of another identical element in the process, device, article or method including that element.
