[0043] Please refer to Figures 1 to 3 , the cooking device in an embodiment includes a support ring 100, an outer pot 200 and an inner pot 300. The support ring 100 includes a support portion 110 and a mating portion 120 provided on one side of the support portion 110. The outer pot 200 is detachably connected to the side of the mating portion 120 away from the support portion 110, and the outer pot 200 and the mating portion 120 together enclose a receiving cavity 201, and the inner pot 300 is received in the receiving cavity 201.

[0044] It should be noted that the cooking device can be a household appliance such as a rice cooker, an electric steamer or an electric pressure cooker, and the food is placed in the inner pot 300 for cooking. The mating portion 120 has opposite sides along its axis, wherein one side of the mating portion 120 is connected to the support portion 110, and the other side of the mating portion 120 (that is, the side of the mating portion 120 away from the support portion 110) is detachably connected to the outer pot 200. Here, the axis of the mating portion 120 is Figure 1 the Z direction shown.

[0045] The above-mentioned cooking device, the support ring 100 includes two parts, a support portion 110 and a mating portion 120. The outer pot 200 is detachably connected to the side of the mating portion 120 away from the support portion 110. The assembly of the outer pot 200 and the support ring 100 is convenient, reducing the assembly difficulty between the two; the inner pot 300 is accommodated in the accommodation cavity 201 jointly defined by the outer pot 200 and the mating portion 120, which can protect the inner pot 300 from being damaged by external collisions. The structural design is reasonable and conducive to improving the assembly efficiency.

[0046] In this embodiment, the support portion 110 and the mating portion 120 are of an integral structure. For example, they can be integrally formed by injection molding, casting, etc. The integrity is good and it is conducive to rapid assembly. In other embodiments, the support portion 110 and the mating portion 120 can also be of a split structure and can be fixed by means of snap connection, plug connection, etc.

[0047] In this embodiment, the inner diameter of the accommodation cavity 201 is greater than or equal to the outer diameter of the inner pot 300, so that the inner pot 300 can be smoothly accommodated in the accommodation cavity 201.

[0048] Specifically, please refer to Figure 2 , the mating portion 120 is configured as a hollow cylindrical structure extending along the lower side of the support portion 110.

[0049] It can be understood that the mating portion 120 has a hollow portion. The hollow portion has two oppositely arranged openings along the axial direction of the mating portion 120. The setting of the outer pot 200 closes one opening of the hollow portion, and the other opening of the hollow portion is also the opening of the accommodation cavity 201. The inner pot 300 can be received into the accommodation cavity 201 from the other opening of the hollow portion.

[0050] In this embodiment, the mating portion 120 is in the shape of a hollow cylinder to be adapted to the inner pot 300. In other embodiments, the mating portion 120 can also be in the shape of a hollow rhombic cylinder or other irregular cylinder shapes.

[0051] In this embodiment, the mating portion 120 is integrally formed below the support portion 110, and the height of the mating portion 120 is greater than the depth of the inner pot 300, so that the inner pot 300 can be completely received in the accommodation cavity 201.

[0052] Specifically, please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 , a fixing groove 122 is provided on the side of the mating portion 120 away from the support portion 110. The outer pot 200 has a folded rib 221, and the folded rib 221 is in snap-fit with the fixing groove 122.

[0053] It should be noted that the folded rib 221 engages with the fixing groove 122, that is, the folded rib 221 can be fixed in the fixing groove 122. Thus, when assembling the outer pot 200 and the support ring 100, the folded rib 221 and the fixing groove 122 engage, allowing the outer pot 200 to be detachably connected to the connecting portion 120 of the support ring 100, making assembly convenient.

[0054] In this embodiment, the folded rib 221 and the fixing groove 122 can be fixed directly by clamping or riveting, and the fixing method is not limited here. The fixing groove 122 can be a square groove, a circular groove, or a groove of other shapes to match the folded rib 221, and the shape of the fixing groove 122 is not limited here.

[0055] In this embodiment, there are at least two folding ribs 221 and at least two fixing grooves 122, and the fixing grooves 122 are provided in a one-to-one correspondence with the folding ribs 221. Optionally, the shapes and sizes of the folding ribs 221 are identical, and the shapes and sizes of the fixing grooves 122 are identical, to facilitate production and assembly.

[0056] For example, the outer pot 200 has four rectangular folding ribs 221 evenly distributed along the circumference of the outer pot 200. Four fixing grooves 122 are provided on the side of the mating portion 120 away from the support portion 110. Each fixing groove 122 is evenly distributed along the circumference of the mating portion 120 and is rectangular in shape. Each fixing groove 122 engages with a corresponding folding rib 221.

[0057] Please refer to Figure 3 and Figure 4 The outer pot 200 includes a pot body 210 and a folding portion 220 arranged around the outer periphery of the pot body 210 , and the folding rib 221 is constructed as a block structure extending along the lower side of the folding portion 220 .

[0058] It should be noted that the folding rib 221 extends along the lower side of the folding portion 220, that is, the folding rib 221 is protruding below the folding portion 220. In this way, the outer pot 200 can be detachably connected to the matching portion 120 of the support ring 100 without hindering the accommodating cavity 201 from accommodating the inner pot 300.

[0059] In this embodiment, the folded rib 221 is constructed as a block structure extending along the lower side of the folded portion 220. The outer contour of the block structure can be square, circular, elliptical or other irregular shapes. Correspondingly, the fixing groove 122 is also square, circular, elliptical or other irregular shapes.

[0060] In this embodiment, the folding rib 221, the folding part 220, and the pot body 210 are of an integral structure. For example, they can be integrally formed by injection molding, casting, etc. They have good integrity and are conducive to rapid assembly. In other embodiments, the folding rib 221, the folding part 220, and the pot body 210 can also be of a split structure.

[0061] In this embodiment, the pot body 210 and the folding part 220 are arranged at a 90-degree angle, and the connection between the pot body 210 and the folding part 220 has a smooth transition to prevent sharp corners and reduce the risk of being scratched. Optionally, the connection between the pot body 210 and the folding part 220 has a smooth transition through an arc section. In other embodiments, the pot body 210 and the folding part 220 can also be arranged at a non-90-degree angle.

[0062] In this embodiment, the outer contour of the pot body 210 is generally circular. In other embodiments, the outer contour of the pot body 210 can also be generally oval, square, or other irregular shapes.

[0063] Further, please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 , a slot 121 is annularly arranged on the side of the mating part 120 away from the support part 110, and the slot 121 communicates with the fixing groove 122; when the folding rib 221 is in snap-fit with the fixing groove 122, the folding part 220 is in plug-in fit with the slot 121.

[0064] It should be noted that since the folding rib 221 protrudes below the folding part 220 and the slot 121 communicates with the fixing groove 122, when assembling the outer pot 200 and the support ring 100, the folding rib 221 is in snap-fit with the fixing groove 122, and at the same time the folding part 220 is inserted into the slot 121. In this way, the connection structure stability between the outer pot 200 and the support ring 100 can be further enhanced.

[0065] In this embodiment, the slot 121 is annularly arranged along the circumferential direction of the mating part 120 on the side of the mating part 120 away from the support part 110, and the slot 121 is in a closed circular ring shape to be adapted to the folding part 220. In other embodiments, the slot 121 can also be in an oval ring shape or other shapes as long as it can be adapted to the folding part 220.

[0066] Even further, please refer to Figures 3 to 6, the fixing groove 122 includes a communicating transition sub-groove 122a and a fixing sub-groove 122b. The slot 121 communicates with the fixing sub-groove 122b through the transition sub-groove 122a; the folding rib 221 passes through the transition sub-groove 122a and is clamped in the fixing sub-groove 122b. It should be noted that one end of the transition sub-groove 122a communicates with the slot 121, and the other end of the transition sub-groove 122a is connected to the fixing sub-groove 122b. When assembling the outer pot 200 and the support ring 100, the folding part 220 is inserted into the slot 121, the folding rib 221 passes through the transition sub-groove 122a and at least part of it is outside the transition sub-groove 122a. The part of the folding rib 221 outside the transition sub-groove 122a is clamped in the fixing sub-groove 122b so that the support ring 100 is detachably fixed to the outer pot 200 to prevent the support ring 100 from separating from the outer pot 200.

[0067] Optionally, the part of the folding rib 221 outside the transition sub-groove 122a can be clamped and fixed in the fixing sub-groove 122b by riveting, which is convenient and time-saving in operation.

[0068] Please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 , a slotting part 130 is convexly provided on the side of the mating part 120 away from the supporting part 110. The slot 121 is an annular groove axially penetrating the slotting part 130 along the axial direction of the slotting part 130, and the fixing groove 122 is a groove body radially penetrating the slotting part 130 along the radial direction of the slotting part 130.

[0069] It should be noted that the axial direction of the slotting part 130 is Figure 2 and Figure 3 the Z direction shown in Figure 2 and Figure 3 the X direction shown in. The slot 121 is an annular groove axially penetrating the slotting part 130 along the axial direction of the slotting part 130, which can be understood as: the slot 121 is a closed annular groove axially penetrating the top wall of the slotting part 130 along the axial direction of the slotting part 120 and circumferentially provided along the slotting part 120. The fixing groove 122 is a groove body radially penetrating the slotting part 130 along the radial direction of the slotting part 130, which can be understood as: the fixing groove 122 is a groove radially penetrating the bottom wall of the slotting part 130 along the radial direction of the slotting part 130, and the fixing groove 122 is not a closed annular groove.

[0070] In this embodiment, the slotting area of the fixing groove 122 is smaller than the slotting area of the slot 121, that is, the same slot 121 can communicate with at least two fixing grooves 122. For example, the number of fixing grooves 122 can be four, and the four fixing grooves 121 are circumferentially spaced along the slotting part 130, and the same slot 121 communicates with the four fixing grooves 122.

[0071] In this embodiment, the slotted portion 130 is a closed annular structure provided circumferentially around the mating portion 120, and the slotted portion 130 protrudes from the inner circumference of the mating portion 120, which is beneficial to improving the space utilization rate.

[0072] Furthermore, please refer to Figures 3 to 6 , a platform 140 is provided above the slotted portion 130. The pot body 210 includes a concave portion 217 and a transition portion 218 surrounding the outside of the concave portion 217. The folding portion 220 is connected to the transition portion 218. The side of the transition portion 218 facing away from the support portion 110 is supported by the platform 140.

[0073] It can be understood that the folding portion 220 surrounds the outer circumference of the transition portion 218 along the circumference of the transition portion 218 and extends along the lower side of the transition portion 218. When the folding portion 220 is inserted and matched with the slot 121, the side of the transition portion 218 facing away from the support portion 110 is supported by the platform 140, which is beneficial to strengthening the structural stability.

[0074] In this embodiment, the platform 140 can be a closed annular structure provided circumferentially around the slotted portion 130, or can be a non-closed annular structure.

[0075] In this embodiment, the slotted portion 130 and the platform 140 are integrally formed on the side of the mating portion 120 away from the support portion 110, with good integrity and high mechanical strength, which is beneficial to rapid assembly.

[0076] Even further, please refer to Figures 3 to 6 , the platform 140 and the slot 121 are staggeredly distributed in the radial direction of the slotted portion 130, and the platform 140 and the inner circumference of the mating portion 120 are spaced apart to form an avoidance space 141. The folding portion 220 passes through the avoidance space 141 and is inserted into the slot 121.

[0077] It can be understood that the platform 140 and the slot 121 are staggeredly distributed in the Figure 3 shown X direction, and the platform 140 and the inner circumference of the mating portion 120 are spaced apart in the Figure 3 shown X direction to form an avoidance space 141. In this way, the folding portion 220 can smoothly pass through the avoidance space 141 and be inserted into the slot 121, avoiding the interference of the setting of the platform 140 on the insertion and matching of the folding portion 220 and the slot 121.

[0078] Specifically in this embodiment, please refer to Figures 3 to 6 , the folding portion 220 is configured as an annular structure extending along the lower side of the transition portion 218.

[0079] Here, the folding portion 220 surrounds the outer circumference of the transition portion 218 along the circumference of the transition portion 218 and extends along the lower side of the transition portion 218, so that the folding portion 220 is a closed annular structure. Correspondingly, the slot 121 is also a closed annular groove.

[0080] In this embodiment, the folding portion 220 is a closed annular structure, which can be a circular ring, an elliptical ring, a square ring or other shapes. Correspondingly, the slot 121 is also a circular ring, an elliptical ring, a square ring or other shapes.

[0081] Please refer to Figure 7 and Figure 2 The cooking device further includes a temperature sensing package 400 for detecting the cooking temperature of the inner pot 300 . The temperature sensing package 400 is detachably disposed on a side of the pot body 210 facing the support portion 110 .

[0082] It should be noted that the temperature sensing bulb 400 at least partially extends into the inner pot 300 and is used to detect the cooking temperature of the inner pot 300. During cooking, the temperature sensing bulb 400 detects the cooking temperature of the inner pot 300, and the operation of the heating plate 500 is controlled based on the cooking temperature to control the heating rate. Here, the cooking temperature can also be used to quickly determine the degree of doneness of the ingredients in the inner pot 300.

[0083] In this embodiment, the temperature sensing package 400 is located in the middle of the pot body 210 to facilitate accurate temperature detection. The number of temperature sensing packages 400 is not limited to one. When there are at least two temperature sensing packages 400, each temperature sensing package 400 can be located at a different position of the pot body 210. Cooking temperatures at different positions can be obtained for comparison, thereby improving the accuracy of the detection results.
