[0022] The following further details the overall solution of the present utility model in conjunction with the drawings and specific embodiments:

[0023] See Figure 1 , 2 , and 3. The structure of the specific embodiment of the present utility model includes a pot body 14, a lid 9, a steam inlet valve 13, and a steam release valve 5. A lid ring 2 for locking the lid 9 and the pot body 14 is provided on the outer side of the lid 9. A lid seal ring 11 is provided between the inner side of the lid 9 and the pot body 14. Both the pot body 14 and the lid 9 are of double-layer structure, and the double-layer structure 7 of the pot body 14 is evacuated. In the double-layer structure of the lid 9, a first lid seal ring 21 is further provided between the inner lid and the outer lid. The steam inlet valve 13 and the steam release valve 5 are respectively provided on the pot walls on both sides of the pot body 14 and communicate with the pot body 14. A first steamer 18 is suspended in the pot body 14, and a steamer seal ring 17 is provided between the first steamer 18 and the pot body 14. A gap is left between the outer wall of the first steamer 18 and the inner wall of the pot body 14. A first outward turning edge 27 is provided on the outer side of the pot mouth of the first steamer 18, and the first steamer is suspended at the mouth of the pot 14 through the first outward turning edge 27.

[0024] An annular outer convex edge 6 is provided on the outer side of the mouth of the pot body 14. Bosses 4 are arranged at intervals on the annular outer convex edge 6, and one end and the outer side of the boss 4 are both open. At the lower end of the pot lid ring 2, notches 10 that can cooperate with the bosses 4 are arranged at intervals corresponding to the bosses 4. Inner convex edges 3 are arranged at intervals corresponding to the bosses 4 on the inner side of the lower end of the pot lid 9. The pot lid ring 2 is stuck in the bosses 4 on the pot body 14 through the inner convex edges 3 and can rotate relative to the pot lid 9. A pot lid ring fixing shaft 8 is arranged at the center of the pot lid 9. The pot lid ring fixing shaft 8 passes through the pot lid ring 2 and connects the pot lid 9 and the pot lid ring 2 together, and the pot lid ring 2 can rotate relative to the pot lid 9 through the pot lid ring fixing shaft 8. An opening handle 1 is arranged on the pot lid ring 2. One end of the opening handle 1 is connected to the pot lid ring 2 through an opening handle rotating shaft 26, and the opening handle 1 can rotate around the opening handle rotating shaft 26. Columnar bosses 12 are arranged at the intervals between the bosses 4 on the annular outer convex edge 6. Corresponding grooves for clamping the columnar bosses 12 are arranged on the inner side of the pot lid 9. The cooperation between the columnar bosses 12 and the grooves can further prevent the pot lid 9 from rotating radially along the pot body 14. Ball bearings 29 are arranged on the top of the pot lid. The ball bearings 29 are in contact with the inner side surface of the top of the pot lid ring 2. There are multiple ball bearings 29, which are evenly embedded in the periphery of the top of the pot lid 9 in a circular pattern. The design of the ball bearing structure here can play a very good role in reducing friction and can realize the rolling contact between 29 and the pot lid ring 2.

[0025] When the pot lid 9 is buckled, the notch 10 at the lower end of the pot lid 9 is stuck on the boss 4, and the columnar boss 12 is stuck into the groove. Rotate the opening handle 1 clockwise to drive the pot lid ring 2 to rotate. The inner convex edge 3 at the lower end of the pot lid ring 2 is screwed into the boss 4 from the gap between the lower end of the pot lid 9 and the annular outer convex edge 6 and is locked with the pot lid 9. When the pot lid 9 is opened, rotate the pot lid ring 2 in the reverse direction, the inner convex edge 3 disengages from the boss 4 and is located in the interval between the bosses 4, and the pot lid 9 can be opened.

[0026] A drain pipe 22 is connected to the inner side of the steam release valve 5. The function of the drain pipe 22 is that when a certain amount of water accumulates in the cavity of the pot body 14 (distilled water will be generated when the steam in the pot cools during cooking of food), the water can be discharged from the pot body 14 by means of the pressure in the cavity of the pot body 14 through the drain pipe 22 and the channel connecting the upper end of the drain pipe 22 and the steam release valve 5. An explosion-proof valve 25 and a safety valve 24 communicating with the pot body 14 are arranged on the pot lid 9.

A second out-turned edge 19 is arranged on the outer side of the mouth of the second steamer 16, and the second steamer 16 is suspended in the first steamer 18 through the second out-turned edge 19. A third out-turned edge 28 is arranged on the outer side of the mouth of the third steamer 15, and a convex platform is arranged on the pot wall of the second steamer 16 near the mouth. The third steamer 15 is arranged in the second steamer 16 through the third out-turned edge 28 and the convex platform. A heating pack or an ice pack 23 is arranged in the pot body 14 below the first steamer 18. The pot body 14, the pot lid 9, the pot lid ring 2, the first steamer 18, the second steamer 16 and the third steamer 15 are all made of stainless steel. In addition, the first steamer 18, the second steamer 16 and the third steamer 15 can all be taken out separately for boiling water or processing food in the wild.

[0028] When the present utility model is used, there are the following three usage modes:

[0029] The first one is to use steam for heating. Open the steam inlet valve 10, and the steam flows in through the steam inlet valve 10, and is heated through the gap left between the outer wall of the first steamer 18 and the inner wall of the pot body 14 and the bottom of the pot body 14 to realize the heating or steaming function. During the heating or steaming process, the over-pressured steam is discharged through the steam release valve 5. After the heating or steaming is completed, take out the first steamer 18.

[0030] The second one is to use a heating pack for heating. Place a heating pack in the pot body 14, add water, then place the first steamer 18, cover the pot lid 9. During the heating or steaming process, the over-pressured steam is discharged through the steam release valve 5. After the heating or steaming is completed, take out the first steamer 18.

[0031] The third one is to use an ice pack for freshness preservation. Place an ice pack in the pot body 14, put the first steamer 18 in, cover the pot lid 9, and then the food materials in the first steamer 18 can be refrigerated and preserved.

[0032] The technical content not specifically described in the content of the present utility model and the above embodiments is the same as the prior art.

[0033] The above is only the specific implementation manner disclosed by the present utility model, but the protection scope disclosed by the present utility model is not limited thereto. The protection scope disclosed by the present utility model shall be subject to the protection scope of the claims.
