[0109] In some embodiments, the steam generator 4 may be communicated with the inside of the steaming box 3 inside the cooking cavity 20 through a steam pipeline, and then a high-temperature steam environment can be created inside the steaming box 3 to realize the steam cooking function inside the steaming box 3.

[0110] Refer to in combination Figure 9 and Figure 11 As shown, in some embodiments, the steam generator 4 can be disposed on the rear wall of the support back plate 14, and thus the steam generator 4 can be spaced apart and arranged outside the inner container 2 and the cooking cavity 20.

[0111] It should be noted that, in some other embodiments, the steam generator 4 can also be directly disposed on the rear wall of the inner container 2, or the steam generator 4 can also be arranged on the support top plate 13.

[0112] Refer to in combination Figure 10 and Figure 11 As shown, in some embodiments, the steam module can include a steam joint 5. The steam joint 5 can penetrate through the rear wall of the inner container 2 and the air guide cover 21. The rear end of the steam joint 5 can be exposed outside the outer wall of the inner container 2, and the front end of the steam joint 5 can protrude from the front side of the air guide cover 21, so that the outer end of the steam joint 5 can protrude outside the inner container 2, and the inner end of the steam joint 5 can protrude from the rear side wall of the cooking cavity 20. The output port of the steam generator 4 can be connected to the outer end of the steam joint 5 through a steam pipeline. The air inlet 3111 of the steaming box 3 can be disposed on the rear side wall of the steaming box 3. When the steaming box 3 is disposed inside the cooking cavity 20, the front end of the steam joint 5 can be docked and communicated with the air inlet 3111 on the rear wall of the steaming box 3, so that the steam generator 4 can be transported into the steaming box 3 through the steam pipeline, the steam joint 5, and the air inlet 3111.

[0113] It should be noted that, in other embodiments, the steam joint 5 can also penetrate through other side walls of the inner container 2, so that the inner end of the steam joint 5 protrudes from other side walls of the cooking cavity 20. When the steaming box 3 is disposed inside the cooking cavity 20, the inner end of the steam joint 5 can be docked and communicated with the air inlet 3111 on the outer wall of the steaming box 3, so that the steam generator 4 can be transported into the steaming box 3 through the steam pipeline, the steam joint 5, and the air inlet 3111.

[0114] Refer to Figure 11 As shown, in some embodiments, a step portion 51 can protrude from the outer peripheral wall of the steam joint 5, and the step portion 51 can be disposed in the blower housing 210. The step portion 51 can abut against the rear wall inside the inner container 2. By abutting the step portion 51 against the rear wall inside the inner container 2, when the front end of the steam joint 5 is docked with the air inlet 3111 of the steaming box 3, the rear end of the steam joint 5 can be limited, preventing the steam joint 5 from moving backward, and ensuring that the steam joint 5 and the steaming box 3 can be stably docked and communicated.

Figure 14 Yes Figure 13 Enlarged structural diagram of area C in the middle. Figure 15 Yes Figure 14 An exploded schematic diagram of...

[0123] Refer to Figure 11 , Figure 14 and Figure 15 As shown in... and..., in some embodiments, a steam input pipe 311 may protrude from the rear wall of the steaming box 3. An air inlet 3111 may be formed inside the steam input pipe 311. The air inlet 3111 may extend along the front-rear direction of the steaming box 3.

[0124] In some embodiments, a docking pipe 312 may be sleeved outside the steam input pipe 311. The rear end of the docking pipe 312 may protrude from the rear end of the steam input pipe 311. A docking port 3121 may be formed inside the rear end portion of the docking pipe 312. The front end of the air inlet 3111 may communicate with the inside of the steaming box 3, and the rear end of the air inlet 3111 may communicate with the docking port 3121. The docking port 3121 may be provided at the rear end of the air inlet 3111 away from the steaming box 3. By using the docking pipe 312, a docking port 3121 may be formed at the rear end of the air inlet 3111, and the air inlet 3111 and the docking port 3121 may be coaxially docked and communicated.

[0125] When the steaming box 3 is pushed backward into the cooking cavity 20, the steam joint 5 can be arranged opposite to the docking port 3121, and the steam joint 5 can be sequentially inserted forward into the docking port 3121 and the air inlet 3111. The steam joint 5 can extend into and be inserted into the air inlet 3111 through the docking port 3121, so that the steam joint 5 is docked and communicated with the air inlet 3111, and the steam joint 5 is communicated with the inside of the steaming box 3.

[0126] Refer to Figure 11As shown, in some embodiments, the mating interface 3121 can be arranged to extend in the front-rear direction of the steaming box 3. In the direction towards the air inlet 3111, the diameter of the mating interface 3121 can gradually decrease. Therefore, when the steaming box 3 is pushed backward into the interior of the cooking cavity 20, the steam joint 5 can smoothly enter the mating interface 3121, and then be inserted into the air inlet 3111 along the mating interface 3121, enabling the steam joint 5 and the air inlet 3111 to be smoothly docked and connected, improving the convenience of use for the user.

[0127] In some embodiments, the mating interface 3121 can adopt a tapered hole structure. The front port of the mating interface 3121 can be communicated with the rear port of the air inlet 3111. The diameter of the rear port of the mating interface 3121 can be larger than that of the front port of the mating interface 3121, making the peripheral side wall of the mating interface 3121 a tapered structure. By using the tapered mating interface 3121, the steam joint 5 can enter from any tapered wall of the mating interface 3121, allowing a certain docking error between the air inlet 3111 and the steam joint 5, enabling the steam joint 5 and the air inlet 3111 to be more smoothly docked and connected.

[0128] It should be noted that, in other embodiments, the steam input pipe 311 can also be provided on other outer walls of the steaming box 3. At this time, one end of the air inlet 3111 can be communicated with the interior of the steaming box 3, and the other end of the air inlet 3111 can be communicated with the mating interface 3121. The mating interface 3121 can be provided at one end of the air inlet 3111 away from the interior of the steaming box 3.

[0129] Refer to Figure 11 As shown, in some embodiments, the diameter of the front port of the mating interface 3121 can be smaller than that of the rear port of the air inlet 3111, so that the steam joint 5 can be smoothly inserted into the air inlet 3111 along the rear port of the mating interface 3121. It should be noted that, in other embodiments, the diameter of the front port of the mating interface 3121 can also be equal to that of the rear port of the air inlet 3111.

[0130] Refer to Figure 11 and Figure 15 As shown, in some embodiments, the docking pipe 312 can be detachably sleeved on the outer periphery of the steam input pipe 311. External threads (not shown in the figure) can be provided on the outer peripheral wall of the steam input pipe 311. Internal threads (not shown in the figure) can be provided inside the front end of the docking pipe 312. The docking pipe 312 can be threadedly sleeved on the outer periphery of the steam input pipe 311. When the docking pipe 312 is threadedly sleeved on the outside of the steam input pipe 311, the air inlet 3111 and the mating interface 3121 can be coaxially docked and connected.

[0131] It should be noted that, in some other embodiments, the docking pipe 312 can also be integrally formed with the steam input pipe 311.

[0143] Referring to Figure 20 and Figure 21 As shown, in some embodiments, the steam output pipe 313 may be detachably disposed on the rear wall of the steaming box 3. A second mounting opening 3102 may be provided on the rear wall of the steaming box 3. The steam output pipe 313 may be detachably passed through the second mounting opening 3102. The steam output pipe 313 can be quickly disassembled and assembled through the second mounting opening 3102, so as to simplify the structure of the steaming box 3.

[0144] It should be noted that, in some other embodiments, the steam output pipe 313 can also be detachably disposed on other side walls of the steaming box 3. In some other embodiments, the steam output pipe 313 can also be integrally formed on the rear wall or other side walls of the steaming box 3.

[0145] In some embodiments, a second fixing plate 3132 may protrude from the outer peripheral wall of the inner end of the steam output pipe 313. The second fixing plate 3132 may be disposed on the inner side wall of the steaming box 3. A pushing pipe 314 is sleeved outside the steam output pipe 313. The pushing pipe 314 may be detachably sleeved on the outer periphery of the steam output pipe 313.

[0146] When the pushing pipe 314 is sleeved outside the steam output pipe 313, the second fixing plate 3132 and the end of the pushing pipe 314 can be clamped on the inner and outer sides of the side wall of the steaming box 3, and thus the steam output pipe 313 can be fixed on the side wall of the steaming box 3.

The positioning ribs 711 can be arranged along the peripheral side edge of the through hole. The positioning ribs 711 can be inserted into the through hole. Since the contour shape of the positioning ribs 711 matches the through hole, the positioning ribs 711 can position the sealing sleeve 71 at the through hole, ensuring that the through hole and the sealing hole 710 can be directly communicated. When the steaming box 3 is placed in the cooking cavity 20, the steam output pipe 313 can pass through the positioning ribs 711, and then can pass through the through hole and be inserted into the sealing hole 710.

[0155] Refer to Figure 18 and Figure 22 As shown, in some embodiments, fixing ribs 72 are convexly provided on the outer peripheral wall of the exhaust joint 7. The fixing ribs 72 can be arranged in the blower compartment 210. The fixing ribs 72 can abut against the rear wall inside the inner liner 2. By abutting the fixing ribs 72 against the rear wall inside the inner liner 2, when the exhaust joint 7 is docked with the steam output pipe 313, axial limitation can be performed on the rear end of the exhaust joint 7 to prevent the exhaust joint 7 from moving backward, ensuring that the exhaust joint 7 and the air outlet 3131 of the steaming box 3 can be stably docked and communicated.

[0156] In some embodiments, a second fixing sleeve 73 can be sleeved on the outer periphery of the rear end of the exhaust joint 7. The second fixing sleeve 73 can be arranged outside the inner liner 2. The second fixing sleeve 73 can abut against the rear wall of the inner liner 2. The fixing ribs 72 and the second fixing sleeve 73 can clamp the front and rear sides of the rear wall of the inner liner 2, and then the exhaust joint 7 can be axially fixed on the rear wall of the inner liner 2 to achieve axial fixation of the exhaust joint 7. When the front end of the exhaust joint 7 is separated from the air outlet 3131 of the steaming box 3, the second fixing sleeve 73 can abut against the rear wall of the inner liner 2 to prevent the exhaust joint 7 from moving forward, ensuring that the exhaust joint 7 and the steaming box 3 can be smoothly separated from each other.

[0157] In some embodiments, an external thread (not marked in the figure) is provided on the outer peripheral wall of the rear end of the exhaust joint 7. A corresponding internal thread (not marked in the figure) can be provided inside the second fixing sleeve 73. The second fixing sleeve 73 can be threadedly sleeved on the outer peripheral wall of the rear end of the exhaust joint 7.

[0158] It should be noted that in other embodiments, the second fixing sleeve 73 can also be fixed on the outer peripheral wall of the rear end of the exhaust joint 7 by means of clamping or interference fit.

[0159] Figure 23 Is Figure 22 A schematic structural diagram of the in-place reminder component 17 in the middle.

[0160] Refer to Figure 18 、 Figure 22 And Figure 23 As shown, in some embodiments, the cooking device may include an in-place reminder component 17. The in-place reminder component 17 may include a micro switch 171 and a push rod 172. The micro switch 171 may be disposed outside the inner container 2. The push rod 172 may be movably passed through the rear side wall of the inner container 2. The micro switch 171 may be axially opposite to the push rod 172. When the steaming box 3 is pushed into the cooking cavity 20, the steaming box 3 can abut against the push rod 172, causing the push rod 172 to move backward, and causing the push rod 172 to move in the direction of the micro switch 171.

[0161] When the steaming box 3 is pushed into the preset position in the cooking cavity 20, the steam joint 5 is docked and communicated with the air inlet 3111, and the exhaust joint 7 can be directly opposite and communicated with the air outlet 3131. At this time, the push rod 172 can abut against the micro switch 171, so that the micro switch 171 triggers an in-place reminder signal. According to this in-place reminder signal, reminder methods such as sound and light can be used to remind the user that the steaming box 3 has been pushed in place.

[0162] In some embodiments, the in-place reminder component 17 may include a reset member 173. The reset member 173 may abut against the push rod 172. The reset member 173 may be used to drive the push rod 172 to move toward the inside of the cooking cavity 20. When the steaming box 3 is not placed in the cooking cavity 20 or the steaming box 3 does not contact the push rod 172, the push rod 172 can be separated from the micro switch 171, as Figure 22 Shown.

[0163] Refer to Figure 18 、 Figure 22 And Figure 23 As shown, in some embodiments, the reset member 173 may be a reset spring. The reset spring may be telescopically sleeved on the push rod 172. When the steaming box 3 pushes the push rod 172 to move in the direction of the micro switch 171, the reset spring is compressed and deformed, as Figure 18 Shown. When the steaming box 3 is separated from the push rod 172, the deformation of the reset spring is restored, and the elastic force of the reset spring can drive the push rod 172 to move toward the inside of the cooking cavity 20, and the reset spring elongates, so that the push rod 172 can be separated from the micro switch 171, as Figure 22 Shown.

[0164] In some embodiments, abutting ribs 1721 may protrude from the outer peripheral wall of the push rod 172. The return spring may be disposed between the abutting ribs 1721 and the inner wall of the inner container 2. One end of the return spring may abut against the abutting ribs 1721, and the other end of the return spring may abut against the inner wall of the inner container 2. When the steaming box 3 pushes the push rod 172 to move in the direction of the microswitch 171, the distance between the abutting ribs 1721 and the inner wall of the inner container 2 gradually decreases, and the abutting ribs 1721 can compress the return spring.

[0165] In some embodiments, the push rod 172 is movably passed through the rear wall of the inner container 2 and the air guide cover 21 in sequence. When the steaming box 3 is not in contact with the push rod 172, the reset member 173 can drive the front end of the push rod 172 to protrude from the front wall of the air guide cover 21 and extend into the cooking cavity 20. Therefore, when the steaming box 3 is placed in the cooking cavity 20, the steaming box 3 can abut against the front end of the push rod 172 and drive the push rod 172 to move backward to abut against the microswitch 171.

[0166] Refer to Figure 22 As shown, in some embodiments, a perforation (not labeled in the figure) may be provided on the rear wall of the inner container 2, and a seal 26 may be provided at the perforation. The seal 26 may be annular. The push rod 172 may be slidably passed through the seal 26, so that the seal 26 can be hermetically sleeved on the outer periphery of the push rod 172. The seal 26 can be used to seal the gap between the outer peripheral wall of the push rod and the peripheral side edge of the perforation.

[0167] Refer to Figure 22 and Figure 23 As shown, in some embodiments, the microswitch 171 may be spaced apart and disposed on the back side of the rear wall of the inner container 2, so that there is a certain interval between the microswitch 171 and the rear wall of the inner container 2. When the steaming box 3 is not in contact with the push rod 172, the rear end of the push rod 172 may protrude from the rear wall of the inner container 2. When the steaming box 3 is placed in the cooking cavity 20, the steaming box 3 can push the push rod 172 to move backward, so that the rear end of the push rod 172 can move backward to abut against the microswitch 171.

[0168] In some embodiments, the microswitch 171 may be disposed on the back side of the support back plate 14. A fixing frame 174 may be provided on the back side of the support back plate 14. The microswitch 171 may be detachably fixed to the fixing frame 174.

[0169] Refer to Figures 20 to 22 As shown, in some embodiments, abutting plates 3141 may protrude from the outer peripheral wall of the rear end of the pushing tube 314. The rear end of the steam output tube 313 may protrude and extend backward beyond the abutting plates 3141. The abutting plates 3141 may be annular, and the abutting plates 3141 may be circumferentially arranged around the outer peripheral wall of the pushing tube 314.

[0170] When the steam box 3 is placed in the cooking cavity 20, the push plate 3141 can abut against the push rod 172, and the push plate 3141 can drive the push rod 172 to move backward, so that the push rod 172 can abut against the micro switch 171. When the push rod 172 abuts against the micro switch 171, the steam output pipe 313 can be inserted into the exhaust joint 7, and the exhaust port 3131 can be connected to the exhaust joint 7.

[0171] It should be noted that, in other embodiments, the arrival reminder component 17 may also be disposed on other side walls of the inner container 2 .

[0172] See also Figure 18 and Figure 22 As shown, in some embodiments, the cooking device may include a temperature sensor 74. The temperature sensor 74 may be disposed at the rear end of the exhaust joint 7. The temperature sensor 74 may be disposed outside the inner pot 2. When the steam generator 4 introduces steam into the steam box 3, the excess steam inside the steam box 3 can be discharged through the gas outlet 3131 and the exhaust joint 7. At this time, the temperature sensor 74 can detect the gas temperature in the exhaust joint 7, thereby obtaining the steam temperature inside the steam box 3, thereby facilitating the detection of the cooking temperature inside the steam box 3. This solution can make it possible for the temperature sensor 74 to be placed in the steam box 3 without being in direct contact with the steam box 3, so that the temperature sensor 74 can be directly installed outside the inner pot 2, which can facilitate the installation and detection of the temperature sensor 74.

[0173] See also Figure 4 and Figure 9 As shown, in some embodiments, the cooking device may include an exhaust pipe (not shown). The exhaust pipe may be arranged outside the inner pot 2. The lower end of the exhaust pipe may be connected to the outer end of the exhaust joint 7. The gas or steam in the steam box 3 may be discharged from the inner pot 2 through the gas outlet 3131, the exhaust joint 7, and the exhaust pipe in sequence.

[0174] See also Figure 18 and Figure 22 As shown, in some embodiments, a transfer tube 75 may be provided at the rear end of the exhaust connector 7. The transfer tube 75 may be provided outside the inner liner 2. One end of the transfer tube 75 may be connected to the rear end of the exhaust connector 7. The other end of the transfer tube 75 may be used to communicate with the exhaust pipe, so that the gas inside the steam box 3 can be discharged through the gas outlet 3131, the exhaust connector 7, the transfer tube 75 and the exhaust pipe in sequence. The temperature sensor 74 may be provided on the transfer tube 75. The temperature sensor 74 may be arranged opposite to the rear port of the exhaust connector 7. Therefore, the temperature sensor 74 may be arranged outside the inner liner 2 along with the transfer tube 75. After the exhaust connector 7 is passed through the rear wall of the inner liner 2, the exhaust connector 7 is connected to the transfer tube 75 to facilitate the installation and removal of the temperature sensor 74.

[0175] It should be noted that in some other embodiments, the lower end of the exhaust pipe may also be directly communicated with the outer end of the exhaust joint 7.

[0176] Refer to Figure 18 and Figure 22 As shown, in some embodiments, a detection tube 751 may protrude from the outer wall of the adapter tube 75. The inside of the detection tube 751 may be communicated with the inside of the adapter tube 75. The detection tube 751 may be disposed opposite to the rear port of the exhaust joint 7. The temperature sensor 74 may be disposed inside the detection tube 751. The detection tube 751 may be provided for the alignment installation of the temperature sensor 74 to ensure that the temperature sensor 74 can be directly disposed at the rear end of the exhaust joint 7, facilitating the installation and disassembly of the temperature sensor 74. Therefore, when the excess steam inside the steaming box 3 can be discharged through the air outlet 3131 and the exhaust joint 7, it can enter the inside of the detection tube 751 from the rear port of the exhaust joint 7, so as to facilitate the temperature sensor 74 to perform temperature detection.

[0177] In some embodiments, the length of the temperature sensor 74 may also be greater than that of the detection tube 751. One end of the temperature sensor 74 may extend out of the detection tube 751 and extend into the inside of the adapter tube 75 and the exhaust joint 7, so as to more accurately detect the steam temperature inside the exhaust joint 7, and further more accurately obtain the steam temperature and cooking temperature inside the steaming box 3.

[0178] In some embodiments, an end cap 752 may be sleeved on the outer end of the detection tube 751. The end cap 752 may cover the outer port of the detection tube 751. The end cap 752 may encapsulate the temperature sensor 74 inside the detection tube 751. A wire passing hole (not labeled in the figure) may be formed in the end cap 752. The connection wire of the temperature sensor 74 may pass through the wire passing hole. The end cap 752 may seal the outer port of the detection tube 751, fix the temperature sensor 74 in the detection tube 751, and also prevent steam from overflowing from the detection tube 751.

[0179] Refer to Figure 4 、 Figure 9 and Figure 18 As shown, in some embodiments, one end of the adapter tube 75 away from the exhaust joint 7 may be bent and extended upward. The detection tube 751 may protrude from the outer wall at the bent portion of the adapter tube 75. By using the upward bending structure design of the adapter tube 75, it is convenient to arrange the exhaust pipe above the adapter tube 75, and it is convenient for the steam to be discharged upward into the exhaust pipe.

[0180] In some embodiments, the interior of the detection tube 751 may be axially aligned with the rear port of the exhaust connection 7. When the exhaust connection 7 is axially docked and connected to the air outlet 3131 in the steam output pipe 313, the detection tube 751 may be disposed opposite to the rear side of the steam output pipe 313, such that the detection tube 751 and the air outlet 3131 of the steaming box 3 are axially opposed. Therefore, when the steam in the steaming box 3 is discharged from the exhaust port, it can directly flow backward into the interior of the detection tube 751, thereby improving the accuracy of the temperature detection of the temperature sensor 74.

[0181] Refer to Figure 4 and Figure 9 As shown, in some embodiments, the cooking device may include a condenser 8. The condenser 8 may be disposed on the exhaust pipe. The condenser 8 may be located above the exhaust connection 7. The condenser 8 may be located above the adapter pipe 75. The condenser 8 can condense the gas flowing through the exhaust pipe, improving the condensation performance of the exhaust gas. The condensed water can flow downward along the exhaust pipe, and flow back into the interior of the steaming box 3 through the adapter pipe 75, the exhaust connection 7, and the air outlet 3131. The water flowing back into the interior of the steaming box 3 can be stored in the bottom area of the steaming box 3 and can be re-converted into steam under the high temperature inside the steaming box 3, thereby improving the utilization rate of the condensed water.

[0182] In some embodiments, a condensation chamber (not shown in the figure) may be formed inside the condenser 8. The steam flowing through the condenser 8 can be condensed in the condensation chamber, and the condensed water can flow back into the exhaust pipe along the wall of the condensation chamber and can flow downward along the exhaust pipe, and finally flow back into the interior of the steaming box 3.

[0183] In some embodiments, the exterior of the condenser 8 may have a first interface 81 and a second interface 82 communicating with the condensation chamber. The first interface 81 may be disposed at the bottom of the condensation chamber. The first interface 81 may serve as the inlet of the condensation chamber. The second interface 82 may be disposed at the top of the condensation chamber. The second interface 82 may serve as the outlet of the condensation chamber. The gas or steam flowing through the exhaust pipe can enter the condensation chamber through the first interface 81 for condensation, and the condensed gas can be discharged through the second interface 82. The condensed water can flow back into the exhaust pipe through the first interface 81.

[0184] In some embodiments, the exhaust pipe may include a first exhaust section (not shown in the figure) and a second exhaust section (not shown in the figure). The bottom end of the first exhaust section may be connected to the exhaust joint 7 through a swivel joint 75. The top end of the first exhaust section may be connected to the first interface 81. One end of the second exhaust section may be connected to the second interface 82. Therefore, the gas in the steaming box 3 can enter the condensation chamber through the air outlet 3131, the exhaust joint 7, the first exhaust section and the first interface 81 for condensation, and the condensed gas can be discharged through the second interface 82 and the second exhaust section. The condensed water formed in the condensation chamber can flow downward along the first exhaust section and flow back into the interior of the steaming box 3 through the exhaust joint 7 and the air outlet 3131.

[0185] In some embodiments, the end of the exhaust pipe away from the exhaust joint 7 may extend into the heat dissipation air duct. The end of the second exhaust section away from the second interface 82 may extend into the heat dissipation air duct. Therefore, the gas condensed by the condensation chamber of the condenser 8 can be discharged into the heat dissipation air duct through the second exhaust section, improving the condensation performance of the steam or gas discharged from the steaming box 3.

[0186] Refer to Figure 9 As shown, in some embodiments, the condenser 8 may have a water inlet joint 83 and a water outlet joint 84. The water inlet joint 83 is connected to the water storage box 15 through a pipeline, and the water outlet joint 84 may be connected to the water storage box 15 through another pipeline, so that a water circulation can be formed between the condenser 8 and the water storage box 15. The water in the water storage box 15 can enter the condenser 8 through the water inlet joint 83, condense the air flowing through the condenser 8, and then return to the water storage box 15 through the water outlet joint 84, thereby cooling the condensation chamber in the condenser 8 and improving the condensation performance of the condenser 8.

[0187] In some embodiments, a condensation pipe (not shown in the figure) may be provided in the condensation chamber. The condensation pipe may be in a spiral tubular structure. One end of the condensation pipe may be connected to the water inlet joint 83. The other end of the condensation pipe may be connected to the water outlet joint 84. The water in the water storage box 15 can enter the condensation pipe through the water inlet joint 83 and then return to the water storage box 15 through the water outlet joint 84. The condensation pipe can condense the air flowing through the condensation chamber, thereby improving the condensation performance of the condenser 8.

[0188] Figure 24 is Figure 12 an exploded schematic view of. Figure 25 is Figure 13 an exploded schematic view of.

[0189] Refer to Figure 24 and Figure 25As shown, in some embodiments, the steaming box 3 may include a steaming grid 33. The steaming grid 33 may be erected inside the steaming box 3. The steaming grid 33 may adopt a plate-like structure. The steaming grid 33 may have a mesh structure. The top surface of the steaming grid 33 may be used to place the ingredients to be steamed. The steaming grid 33 may divide the internal space of the steaming box 3 vertically into an upper steaming cavity 30a and a lower steaming cavity 30b. The upper steaming cavity 30a may be formed above the steaming grid 33. The lower steaming cavity 30b may be formed below the steaming grid 33.

[0190] When steam enters the interior of the steaming box 3 through the air inlet 3111, the steam may enter the upper steaming cavity 30a and the lower steaming cavity 30b. The steam in the upper steaming cavity 30a and the lower steaming cavity 30b may flow through the mesh holes of the steaming grid 33 to increase the contact area between the steam and the ingredients on the steaming grid 33, thereby improving the steam cooking efficiency inside the steaming box 3.

[0191] It should be noted that in some other embodiments, the ingredients may also be placed inside the lower steaming cavity 30b for steaming.

[0192] In some embodiments, the air inlet 3111 may be located below the steaming grid 33. The air inlet 3111 may communicate with the lower steaming cavity 30b. When the steaming box 3 is pushed into the cooking cavity 20, the air inlet 3111 can be docked and communicated with the steam joint 5, and the steam generator 4 can introduce steam into the lower steaming cavity 30b through the steam joint 5 and the air inlet 3111, and then flow through the mesh holes on the steaming grid 33 into the upper steaming cavity 30a, thereby steaming the ingredients on the steaming grid 33.

[0193] In some embodiments, the air outlet 3131 may be located above the steaming grid 33. The air outlet 3131 may communicate with the upper steaming cavity 30a. When the steaming box 3 is pushed into the cooking cavity 20, the air outlet 3131 can be docked and communicated with the exhaust joint 7, and the air and steam in the upper steaming cavity 30a can be discharged from the steaming box 3 and the inner liner 2 through the air outlet 3131 and the exhaust joint 7. By allowing the steam to enter from the lower steaming cavity 30b and exit from the upper steaming cavity 30a, it can ensure that the steam passes through the steaming grid 33, thereby ensuring that the steam can steam the ingredients on the steaming grid 33 and improving the steam cooking efficiency inside the steaming box 3.

[0194] In some embodiments, the steaming grid 33 may be detachably erected inside the steaming box 3. In other embodiments, the steaming grid 33 may also be integrally formed and erected inside the steaming box 3.

[0195] Refer to Figure 24 and Figure 25As shown, in some embodiments, support ribs 315 may protrude from the inner sidewall of the steaming box 3. The peripheral side edge of the steaming net 33 may be detachably supported on the support ribs 315. The support ribs 315 may be arranged to extend in the up and down direction. The support ribs 315 may extend upward from the inner bottom surface of the steaming box 3. The peripheral side edge of the steaming net 33 can be supported by the support ribs 315, and thus the steaming net 33 can be erected inside the steaming box 3, keeping a certain preset distance between the steaming net 33 and the inner bottom surface of the steaming box 3.

[0196] In some embodiments, on the inner sidewall of the steaming box 3, there may be multiple support ribs 315. The multiple support ribs 315 are circumferentially spaced and arranged on the inner peripheral wall of the steaming box 3. The peripheral side edge of the steaming net 33 may be detachably supported on the multiple support ribs 315. By supporting different positions of the peripheral side edge of the steaming net 33 with the multiple support ribs 315, the stability of the steaming net 33 can be improved, preventing the steaming net 33 from tipping over inside the steaming box 3.

[0197] It should be noted that the number of the support ribs 315 and the interval width between the support ribs 315 can be adjusted as needed and are not limited herein.

[0198] In some embodiments, the multiple support ribs 315 on the inner wall of the steaming box 3 can be divided into two groups. One group of support ribs 315 can be provided on the front sidewall inside the steaming box 3. The other group of support ribs 315 can be provided on the rear sidewall inside the steaming box 3. The two groups of support ribs 315 can support the front and rear side edges of the steaming net 33.

[0199] It should be noted that in other embodiments, among the two groups of support ribs 315, one group of support ribs 315 can be provided on the left sidewall inside the steaming box 3. The other group of support ribs 315 can be provided on the right sidewall inside the steaming box 3. The two groups of support ribs 315 can support the left and right side edges of the steaming net 33.

[0200] Refer to Figure 24 and Figure 25 As shown, in some embodiments, the support rib 315 may include a support portion 3151. The support portion 3151 may protrude from the inner sidewall of the steaming box 3. The top of the support portion 3151 can be used to support the peripheral side edge of the steaming net 33. When the steaming net 33 is placed inside the steaming box 3, the peripheral side edge of the steaming net 33 can be supported on the top of the support portion 3151, and thus the steaming net 33 can be stably erected inside the steaming box 3.

[0201] In some embodiments, the support rib 315 may include a spacer portion 3152. The spacer portion 3152 may protrude from the inner sidewall of the steaming box 3. The spacer portion 3152 may protrude above the top of the support portion 3151. The thickness by which the spacer portion 3152 protrudes from the inner wall of the steaming box 3 may be less than the thickness by which the support portion 3151 protrudes from the inner wall of the steaming box 3. When the peripheral side edge of the steaming grid 33 is supported on the top of the support rib 315, the peripheral sidewall of the steaming grid 33 can abut against the spacer portion 3152, so as to form a gap between the peripheral sidewall of the steaming grid 33 and the inner sidewall of the steaming box 3. When steam enters the interior of the steaming box 3, the steam in the upper steaming cavity 30a and the lower steaming cavity 30b can flow through the gap between the peripheral side edge of the steaming grid 33 and the inner wall of the steaming box 3.

[0202] Refer to Figure 24 and Figure 25 As shown, in some embodiments, the steaming grid 33 may be provided with a handle hole 331. The handle hole 331 may communicate the upper and lower sides of the steaming grid 33. When it is necessary to take out the steaming grid 33 from the steaming box 3, the user can insert a finger or chopsticks into the handle hole 331, and then can conveniently take out the steaming grid 33 from the steaming box 3.

[0203] In some embodiments, there may be two handle holes 331. The two handle holes 331 may be provided at intervals on opposite sides of the steaming grid 33. It should be noted that the number, position and aperture of the handle hole 331 can be adjusted as needed, and are not limited herein.

[0204] Refer to Figure 24 and Figure 25 As shown, in some embodiments, the steaming box 3 may include a box body 31 and a box cover 32. An opening may be provided at the top of the box body 31. The box cover 32 may be detachably covered on the top opening of the box body 31. When the box cover 32 is covered on the top of the box body 31, a sealed cavity can be formed inside the steaming box 3. The steaming grid 33 may be erected inside the box body 31. The air inlet 3111 and the air outlet 3131 may be respectively provided on the rear sidewall of the box body 31.

[0205] When the steaming box 3 is pushed backward into the cooking cavity 20, the air inlet 3111 can be docked and communicated with the steam joint 5, and the air outlet 3131 can be docked and communicated with the exhaust joint 7.

[0206] It should be noted that, in some embodiments, the air inlet 3111 and the air outlet 3131 may also be provided on other sidewalls of the box body 31.

[0207] Refer to Figure 10 and Figure 24As shown, in some embodiments, the bottom of the box body 31 may be recessed downwardly with an expansion slot 3160. The internal space of the steaming box 3 can be expanded through the expansion slot 3160. The expansion slot 3160 can expand the internal space of the lower steaming cavity 30b.

[0208] Referring to Figure 24 and Figure 25 As shown, in some embodiments, a sealing ring 35 may be provided at the peripheral side edge of the bottom end of the box cover 32. When the box cover 32 is covered on the top opening of the box body 31, the sealing ring 35 can be hermetically clamped between the peripheral side edge of the box cover 32 and the peripheral side wall of the top opening of the box body 31. Through the sealing ring 35, the gap between the peripheral side edge of the box cover 32 and the top opening of the box body 31 can be sealed, thereby hermetically isolating the inside of the steaming box 3 from the outside.

[0209] In some embodiments, a support ring groove 317 may be provided at the peripheral side edge of the top opening of the box body 31. When the box cover 32 is covered on the box body 31, the peripheral side wall of the bottom end of the box cover 32 can be supported at the support ring groove 317, and the sealing ring 35 can seal the gap between the groove wall of the support ring groove 317 and the peripheral side edge of the box cover 32.

[0210] Although the present utility model has been described with reference to several exemplary embodiments, it should be understood that the terms used are illustrative and exemplary, rather than restrictive. Since the present utility model can be embodied in many forms without departing from the spirit or essence of the utility model, it should be understood that the above-described embodiments are not limited to any of the foregoing details, but should be broadly construed within the spirit and scope defined by the appended claims. Therefore, all changes and modifications falling within the scope of the claims or their equivalents should be covered by the appended claims.
