Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of rice cookers, in particular to a rice cooker with double-cavity cooking. Background Art

[0002] At present, the existing rice cooker includes an inner pot, a pot body, a heating plate and a pot lid. The inner pot is placed into the pot body and abuts against the heating plate. The heating plate is in close contact with the bottom surface of the inner pot, and the heating plate generates heat and conducts it to the inner pot for cooking. In addition, the rice cooker is also equipped with a steamer. The steamer is placed into the inner pot from the upper opening of the inner pot from top to bottom, and the flange on the steamer is in close contact with the upper opening of the inner pot. The problems are as follows: Since the steamer is completely placed into the inner pot body, the high-temperature steamer cannot be directly taken out of the inner pot by hand after cooking is completed, resulting in inconvenient use of the steamer; moreover, when steaming food, a large amount of water vapor condenses into water droplets and directly drops onto the food, resulting in the food being wet. For example, when steaming buns or steamed buns, there will be water droplets on the surface of the steamed buns and steamed buns, seriously affecting the food quality; when steaming rice, the water droplets drop onto the rice, causing water stains on the upper surface of the rice, which will also affect the rice quality. Since the steamer placed in the inner pot will occupy most of the volume of the inner pot, the water level below the steamer cannot be too high. When using the inner pot to cook porridge or stew soup, it is impossible to steam rice in the steamer. Summary of the Utility Model
