Description
Technical field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of kitchen appliances, in particular to an electric steamer. [Background Technology]
[0002] The prior art electric steamer includes a base and a steamer assembly. The steamer assembly includes a bottom saucepan mounted on the base and a bottom steaming plate mounted on the bottom saucepan. The base includes a steam generating assembly and a steam inlet pipe connected to the steam generating assembly. The steam inlet pipe is vertically mounted on the base and extends upward through the bottom wall of the bottom saucepan, such that a steam outlet on the side wall of the steam inlet pipe is located within the space enclosed by the bottom saucepan and the bottom steaming plate. In this way, steam generated by the steam generating assembly is delivered into the space enclosed by the bottom saucepan and the bottom steaming plate through the steam inlet pipe and the steam outlet. After diffusing throughout the space, steam enters the steaming chamber above the bottom steaming plate through the steam holes in the bottom steaming plate, thereby achieving uniform steaming of the food in the steaming chamber. The bottom saucepan is used to collect the soup dripping from the bottom steaming plate. Because the bottom wall of the existing bottom saucepan is a flat plate with a through hole for the steam inlet pipe to pass through, when the bottom saucepan needs to be removed to pour out the soup, the soup in the bottom saucepan leaks through the through hole, thereby reducing the user experience. [Utility Model Content]
[0003] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to overcome the deficiencies of the prior art and provide an electric steamer which can prevent soup from leaking from the perforations without increasing the height of the space between the bottom steaming plate and the bottom wall of the bottom juice receiving tray, thereby ensuring the height of the entire machine.
[0004] In order to solve the above technical problems, the present invention adopts the following technical solutions:
[0005] An electric steamer comprises a base and a steamer assembly, wherein the steamer assembly comprises a bottom juice collecting tray mounted on the base and a bottom steaming plate mounted on the bottom juice collecting tray, the base comprises a steam generating assembly and a steam inlet pipe connected to the steam generating assembly, the bottom wall of the bottom juice collecting tray is provided with a through-hole and a water retaining rib protruding upward and arranged around the through-hole, the steam inlet pipe extends into the space enclosed by the bottom steaming plate and the bottom juice collecting tray through the through-hole, the side wall of the steam inlet pipe is provided with a steam outlet located above the water retaining rib, and the bottom surface of the bottom steaming plate is provided with an avoidance groove for avoiding the steam inlet pipe.
[0006] In the above electric steamer, the bottom juice collecting tray includes a bottom wall and side walls arranged around the bottom wall, the side walls are provided with a supporting surface for supporting the bottom steaming plate, and the top surface of the water retaining rib is lower than the supporting surface.
[0007] In the above electric steamer, the height of the water retaining rib protruding from the bottom wall is H, and the distance between the support surface and the bottom wall is H1, which satisfies 0.5≤H / H1≤0.65.
[0008] In the above electric steamer, the bottom steaming plate includes a solid area and a porous area, the porous area surrounds the outside of the solid area, the solid area is provided with the avoidance groove, and the porous area is provided with a plurality of steam holes.
[0009] In the above electric steamer, the steam outlet is lower than the notch of the avoidance groove.
[0010] In the above electric steamer, the portion of the bottom steaming plate corresponding to the steam inlet pipe is arched upward to form the avoidance groove.
[0011] In the above electric steamer, the side walls of the avoidance groove gradually expand downward.
[0012] In the above electric steamer, the water retaining rib is integrally formed with the bottom wall of the juice receiving tray.
[0013] In the above electric steamer, the distance between the bottom end of the steam outlet and the top surface of the water retaining rib is no more than 3 mm.
[0014] In the above electric steamer, there is an avoidance gap between the bottom wall and the side wall of the avoidance groove and the steam inlet pipe.
[0015] Beneficial effects of the utility model:
[0016] 1. In the present invention, the bottom wall of the bottom juice collecting tray is provided with a perforation and a water retaining rib that protrudes upward and is provided around the perforation. The steam inlet pipe extends into the space enclosed by the bottom steaming plate and the bottom juice collecting tray through the perforation. The side wall of the steam inlet pipe is provided with a steam outlet located above the water retaining rib, and the bottom surface of the bottom steaming plate is provided with an avoidance groove for avoiding the steam inlet pipe. By providing the water retaining rib that protrudes upward around the perforation, the soup in the bottom juice collecting tray can be effectively blocked from flowing toward the perforation, thereby preventing the soup from leaking through the perforation. The steam outlet on the side wall of the steam inlet pipe is located above the water retaining rib, which can prevent the water retaining rib from blocking the steam outlet, so that the steam outlet can discharge steam smoothly, thereby improving cooking efficiency. In order to increase the height of the water retaining rib as much as possible to increase the blocking effect on the soup, the water retaining rib needs to be set as high as possible, and the corresponding steam outlet position is also higher. In this way, the top surface of the steam inlet pipe protrudes a greater height from the bottom wall of the bottom juice collecting tray. Since it is necessary to ensure that the steam outlet is located The space between the bottom steaming plate and the bottom juice collecting pan allows the steam to diffuse into the space above the bottom steaming plate. Therefore, a through hole cannot be set on the bottom steaming plate for the steam inlet pipe to pass through. In this way, the only way is to increase the space height between the bottom steaming plate and the bottom juice collecting pan to adapt to the height of the steam inlet pipe. This will cause the space height between the bottom steaming plate and the bottom juice collecting pan to be too large, resulting in an increase in the height of the entire machine, thereby increasing the manufacturing cost of the entire machine. In the present invention, an avoidance groove is set on the bottom surface of the bottom steaming plate to avoid the steam inlet pipe, so there is no need to increase the space height between the bottom steaming plate and the bottom juice collecting pan, thereby ensuring the height of the entire machine.
[0017] 2. The bottom juice collecting tray includes a bottom wall and surrounding sidewalls. The sidewalls are provided with a support surface for the bottom steaming plate, and the top surface of the water retaining rib is lower than the support surface. This design prevents the top surface of the water retaining rib from being higher than the support surface and interfering with the bottom steaming plate's support on the support surface. It also minimizes the height of the steam outlet, reducing the depth of the relief groove and facilitating subsequent cleaning of the relief groove.
[0018] 3. The height of the water retaining rib protruding from the bottom wall is H, and the distance between the support surface and the bottom wall is H1, satisfying 0.5≤H / H1≤0.65. By properly designing the height of the water retaining rib, the soup can be effectively blocked while avoiding excessive height, which would lead to the steam outlet being too high and the avoidance groove being too deep, thereby increasing the difficulty of machining and cleaning the avoidance groove.
[0019] 4. The bottom steaming plate consists of a solid area and a porous area. The porous area surrounds the solid area and is equipped with a relief groove. The porous area is equipped with multiple steam holes. This design prevents steam from the steam outlet from entering the steam chamber above the bottom steaming plate through the solid area. Instead, the steam from the steam outlet is dispersed and evenly enters the steam chamber above the bottom steaming plate through the steam holes, achieving comprehensive steaming of the ingredients in the steam chamber and improving the steaming effect.
[0020] 5. The steam outlet is lower than the notch of the avoidance groove. This design allows the steam discharged from the steam outlet to diffuse directly into the space between the bottom steaming plate and the bottom juice collecting tray, without being blocked by the side walls of the avoidance groove and then changing direction before flowing out of the avoidance groove for diffusion. This shortens the steam flow path and improves cooking efficiency.
[0021] 6. The portion of the bottom steam plate corresponding to the steam inlet pipe is arched upward to form an avoidance groove. This design, since the bottom steam plate is generally a metal plate, can be formed by stamping, thereby reducing the processing difficulty of the avoidance groove and facilitating mass production.
[0022] 7. The sidewalls of the relief groove gradually expand downward. With this design, when some steam enters the relief groove, the sidewalls of the relief groove guide the steam outward and diffuse it in all directions, allowing the steam between the bottom steaming plate and the bottom juice collecting tray to enter the steaming chamber above the bottom steaming plate more evenly, thereby improving the all-round steaming effect of the food in the steaming chamber.
[0023] 8. The water retaining rib is integrally formed with the bottom wall of the juice collecting tray. This design ensures a reliable seal at the connection between the water retaining rib and the bottom wall of the juice collecting tray, preventing soup leakage. Furthermore, it ensures a reliable connection between the water retaining rib and the bottom wall of the juice collecting tray and eliminates the need for assembly steps, thereby improving product assembly efficiency.
[0024] 9. The distance between the bottom of the steam outlet and the top of the water retaining rib is no greater than 3mm. This design, while maintaining the same water retaining rib height, prevents the inlet pipe from being too high and the avoidance groove from being too deep due to the distance between the bottom of the steam outlet and the top of the water retaining rib. Furthermore, while maintaining the same inlet pipe height, the height of the water retaining rib can be increased as much as possible to improve the soup blocking effect.
[0025] 10. There is a clearance between the bottom and side walls of the escape groove and the steam inlet pipe. This design facilitates the smooth placement of the bottom steam plate on the bottom juice tray and reduces noise. In addition, when some steam outlets correspond to the side walls of the escape groove, the escape gap prevents the steam from being blocked by the side walls of the escape groove and preventing smooth discharge.
[0026] These features and advantages of the present invention will be disclosed in detail in the following specific embodiments and drawings.

[0036] The utility model provides an electric steamer, comprising a base and a steamer assembly, wherein the steamer assembly comprises a bottom juice collecting tray mounted on the base and a bottom steaming plate mounted on the bottom juice collecting tray, the base comprises a steam generating assembly and a steam inlet pipe connected to the steam generating assembly, the bottom wall of the bottom juice collecting tray is provided with a through-hole and a water retaining rib protruding upward and arranged around the through-hole, the steam inlet pipe extends into a space enclosed by the bottom steaming plate and the bottom juice collecting tray through the through-hole, the side wall of the steam inlet pipe is provided with a steam outlet located above the water retaining rib, and the bottom surface of the bottom steaming plate is provided with an avoidance groove for avoiding the steam inlet pipe. By arranging an upwardly protruding water retaining rib around the perforation, the soup in the bottom juice collecting pan can be effectively blocked from flowing toward the perforation, thereby preventing the soup from leaking out through the perforation, and the steam outlet on the side wall of the steam inlet pipe is located above the water retaining rib, which can prevent the water retaining rib from blocking the steam outlet, so that the steam outlet can discharge steam smoothly, thereby improving cooking efficiency; in order to increase the height of the water retaining rib as much as possible to increase the blocking effect on the soup, the water retaining rib needs to be set as high as possible, and the corresponding steam outlet position is also higher, so that the top surface of the steam inlet pipe protrudes a greater height from the bottom wall of the bottom juice collecting pan, and since it is necessary to ensure that the steam outlet is located The space between the bottom steaming plate and the bottom juice collecting pan allows the steam to diffuse into the space above the bottom steaming plate. Therefore, a through hole cannot be set on the bottom steaming plate for the steam inlet pipe to pass through. In this way, the only way is to increase the space height between the bottom steaming plate and the bottom juice collecting pan to adapt to the height of the steam inlet pipe. This will cause the space height between the bottom steaming plate and the bottom juice collecting pan to be too large, resulting in an increase in the height of the entire machine, thereby increasing the manufacturing cost of the entire machine. In the present invention, an avoidance groove is set on the bottom surface of the bottom steaming plate to avoid the steam inlet pipe, so there is no need to increase the space height between the bottom steaming plate and the bottom juice collecting pan, thereby ensuring the height of the entire machine.

[0038] Example 1
[0039] like Figures 1 to 6As shown, the electric steamer in this embodiment includes a base 100 and a steamer assembly 200. The steamer assembly 200 includes a plurality of vertically spaced juice receiving trays, a steaming enclosure 230 provided between two adjacent juice receiving trays, and a steaming cover 240 provided on the uppermost juice receiving tray. The juice receiving tray located at the lowermost layer is a bottom juice receiving tray 210. Each juice receiving tray is provided with a steaming plate, and the steaming plate provided on the bottom juice receiving tray 210 is a bottom steaming plate 220. The base 100 includes a cavity with an open top, the bottom juice receiving tray 210 is provided on the top of the base 100, and the bottom of the bottom juice receiving tray 210 is located in the cavity to reduce the height of the entire machine, and the bottom steaming plate 220 is provided on the bottom juice receiving tray 210. The base 100 includes a steam generating assembly 110, a steam inlet pipe 120 and a water tank 130, the water tank 130 is placed on the top of the base 100, the steam generating assembly 110 connects the water tank 130 and the steam inlet pipe 120, the steam generating assembly 110 can be set with reference to the existing technology, the steam generating assembly 110 is used to heat water to generate steam, and the steam enters the steam inlet pipe 120. In this embodiment, the bottom wall of the bottom juice collecting plate 210 is provided with a through hole 211 and a water retaining rib 212 protruding upward and arranged around the through hole 211, the steam inlet pipe 120 extends into the space 001 surrounded by the bottom steaming plate 220 and the bottom juice collecting plate 210 through the through hole 211, the side wall of the steam inlet pipe 120 is provided with a plurality of steam outlets 121 located above the water retaining rib 212, and the bottom surface of the bottom steaming plate 220 is provided with an avoidance groove 221 for avoiding the steam inlet pipe 120.
[0040] By arranging an upwardly protruding water retaining rib 212 around the perforation 211, the soup in the bottom juice receiving tray 210 can be effectively blocked from flowing toward the perforation 211, thereby preventing the soup from leaking through the perforation 211. The steam outlet 121 on the side wall of the steam inlet pipe 120 is located above the water retaining rib 212, which can prevent the water retaining rib 212 from blocking the steam outlet 121, so that the steam outlet 121 can discharge steam smoothly, thereby improving cooking efficiency. In order to increase the height of the water retaining rib 212 as much as possible to increase the blocking effect on the soup, the water retaining rib 212 needs to be set as high as possible, and the corresponding steam outlet 121 is also higher. In this way, the height of the top surface of the steam inlet pipe 120 protruding from the bottom wall of the bottom juice receiving tray 210 is also greater. To ensure that the steam outlet 121 is located in the space 001 so that the steam can diffuse into the space above the bottom steam plate 220, no through hole can be set on the bottom steam plate 220 for the steam inlet pipe to pass through. In this way, the only way is to increase the height of the space between the bottom steam plate 220 and the bottom juice collecting tray 210 to accommodate the height of the steam inlet pipe 120. This will cause the height of the space 001 between the bottom steam plate 220 and the bottom juice collecting tray 210 to be too large, resulting in an increase in the height of the entire machine, thereby increasing the manufacturing cost of the entire machine. In this embodiment, an avoidance groove 221 is provided on the bottom surface of the bottom steam plate 220 to avoid the steam inlet pipe 120, so there is no need to increase the height of the space between the bottom steam plate 220 and the bottom juice collecting tray 210, thereby ensuring the height of the entire machine.
[0041] Specifically, in this embodiment, the bottom juice collecting tray 210 includes a bottom wall 213 and a side wall 214 arranged around the bottom wall 213, the side wall 214 includes a bending section 2141, a supporting section 2142 and a main body 2143 extending vertically from top to bottom, the bending section 2141 is stepped, and has a transverse section and a first vertical section connected to the outer end of the transverse section and extending upward, and a second vertical section connected to the inner end of the transverse section and extending downward, the steaming enclosure 230 is supported on the transverse section and horizontally limited by the first vertical section, the supporting section 2142 is connected between the bottom end of the second vertical section and the top of the main body 2143, the top surface of the supporting section 2142 forms a supporting surface 21421, the edge of the bottom steaming plate 220 is supported on the supporting surface 21421, and the top surface of the water retaining rib 212 is lower than the supporting surface 21421. Such a design can not only prevent the top surface of the water retaining rib 212 from being higher than the support surface 21421 and interfering with the bottom steam plate 220 supported on the support surface 21421, but also reduce the setting height of the steam outlet 121 as much as possible to reduce the depth of the avoidance groove 221 as much as possible, thereby facilitating the subsequent cleaning of the avoidance groove 221.
[0042] In this embodiment, the height of the water retaining rib 212 protruding from the bottom wall 213 is H, and the distance between the support surface 21421 and the bottom wall 213 is H1, satisfying 0.5≤H / H1≤0.65. When H / H1 is less than 0.5, the height of the water retaining rib 212 is too small, resulting in poor soup blocking effect and a risk of soup leaking through the perforation 211. When H / H1 is greater than 0.65, the sum of the heights of the water retaining rib 212 and the steam outlet 121 is too large, resulting in the avoidance groove 221 being too deep. Therefore, in this embodiment, H / H1 is preferably 0.6. In this way, by rationally designing the height of the water retaining rib 212, the soup blocking effect is guaranteed while avoiding the excessive height of the steam outlet 121, which would result in the avoidance groove 221 being too deep and difficult to manufacture and clean.
[0043] In this embodiment, the bottom steaming plate 220 comprises a solid area and a porous area. The porous area surrounds the solid area, is provided with a relief groove 221, and is provided with a plurality of steam holes 222. This design prevents steam discharged from the steam outlet 121 from entering the steaming chamber above the bottom steaming plate 220 through the solid area. Instead, the steam discharged from the steam outlet 121 disperses and then evenly enters the steaming chamber above the bottom steaming plate 220 through the steam holes 222, achieving comprehensive steaming of the food in the steaming chamber and improving the steaming effect.
[0044] Preferably, the portion of the bottom steam plate 220 corresponding to the steam inlet pipe 120 is arched upward to form an escape groove 221. With this design, since the bottom steam plate 220 is generally a metal plate, the portion of the bottom steam plate 220 corresponding to the steam inlet pipe 120 is arched upward to form the escape groove 221, which can be formed using a stamping process, thereby reducing the difficulty of manufacturing the escape groove 221 and facilitating mass production.
[0045] Furthermore, the steam outlet 121 in this embodiment is lower than the notch of the avoidance groove 221. This design allows the steam discharged from the steam outlet 121 to diffuse directly into the space 001 between the bottom steaming plate 220 and the bottom juice receiving tray 210, without being blocked by the sidewalls of the avoidance groove 221 and then changing direction before flowing out of the avoidance groove 221 for diffusion. This shortens the steam flow path and improves steaming efficiency.
[0046] Furthermore, the distance H3 between the bottom end of the steam outlet 121 and the top surface of the water retaining rib 212 is no greater than 3 mm. This design, while maintaining the height of the water retaining rib 212, prevents excessive distance between the bottom end of the steam outlet 121 and the top surface of the water retaining rib 212 from causing the steam inlet pipe 120 to be too high and the avoidance groove 221 to be too deep. Furthermore, while maintaining the height of the steam inlet pipe 120, the height of the water retaining rib 212 can be increased as much as possible to improve the soup blocking effect.
[0047] In order to allow the steam entering the avoidance groove 221 to be smoothly discharged from the avoidance groove 221 and dispersed, the side walls of the avoidance groove 221 in this embodiment gradually expand downward, that is, the side walls of the avoidance groove 221 are conical walls that gradually expand downward. With such a design, when part of the steam enters the avoidance groove 221, the steam can be guided to flow outward and diffuse around through the side walls of the avoidance groove 221, so that the steam between the bottom steaming plate 220 and the bottom juice receiving tray 210 can enter the steaming cavity above the bottom steaming plate 220 more evenly, thereby improving the all-round steaming effect on the food in the steaming cavity.
[0048] Secondly, in this embodiment, there is a clearance between the bottom wall and the side wall of the avoidance groove 221 and the steam inlet pipe 120. Such a design can facilitate the bottom steaming plate 220 to be smoothly placed on the bottom juice receiving tray 210, and can also reduce noise.
[0049] Finally, the water retaining rib 212 in this embodiment is integrally formed with the bottom wall 213 of the juice collecting tray. This design ensures a secure seal at the connection between the water retaining rib 212 and the bottom wall 213 of the juice collecting tray, preventing soup leakage. Furthermore, it ensures a secure connection between the water retaining rib 212 and the bottom wall 213 of the juice collecting tray and eliminates assembly steps, thereby improving product assembly efficiency. Preferably, the inner side of the water retaining rib 212 is flush with the wall of the through hole 211, thereby increasing the space between the water retaining rib 212 and the side wall 214, thereby increasing water storage capacity.
[0050] It is understandable that in other embodiments of the present invention, the portion of the bottom steam plate corresponding to the steam inlet pipe is thickened, and the bottom surface of the portion of the bottom steam plate corresponding to the steam inlet pipe is partially cut off to form an avoidance groove.
[0051] It can be understood that in other embodiments of the present invention, when there is a avoidance gap between the bottom wall and side wall of the avoidance groove and the steam inlet pipe, the steam outlet can also be at least partially located in the avoidance groove. In this way, the setting of the avoidance gap also avoids being blocked by the side wall of the avoidance groove and being unable to discharge smoothly.
[0052] The above description is merely a specific embodiment of the present invention, but the scope of protection of the present invention is not limited thereto. Those skilled in the art will understand that the present invention includes, but is not limited to, the contents described in the accompanying drawings and the above specific embodiments. Any modifications that do not deviate from the functional and structural principles of the present invention are intended to be included within the scope of the claims.
