Moreover, the specific features, structures, materials, or characteristics described can be combined in any appropriate manner in any one or more embodiments or examples.

[0027] Reference below Figures 1 to 3 The steam generator according to the embodiment of the present invention is described.

[0028] like Figures 1 to 2 As shown, the steam generator according to the embodiment of the present invention includes: a water tank 100 and an auxiliary water tank 200, and the water tank 100 is provided with a plurality of heating tubes 300, a baffle assembly 400 and a plurality of dry-burning tubes 500 from bottom to top. The bottom of the water tank 100 is provided with a plurality of water supply ports 110, the upper part of the water tank 100 is provided with a steam port 120, and the baffle assembly 400 is provided with a baffle structure that only allows water vapor to pass through and blocks water; the auxiliary water tank 200 is connected to the water tank 100 through the water supply port 110, and the auxiliary water tank 200 is used to connect to an external water source.

[0029] It is understandable that this steam generator includes a water tank 100 and an auxiliary water tank 200. The auxiliary water tank 200 is connected to an external water source and passes water into the water tank 100 through a water supply port 110 at the bottom of the water tank 100. The water entering the water tank 100 gradually boils and generates water vapor under the heating of the heating tube 300. After the water vapor passes through the baffle structure of the baffle assembly 400, it continues to be heated by the upper dry-burning tube 500 and then overflows from the steam port 120 to heat the rice noodle rolls. Because the water vapor passes through the baffle structure 400 before overflowing, it will continue to be heated by the upper dry-burning tube 500 and then overflow from the steam port 120 to heat the rice noodle rolls. The upper dry-burning tube 500 continues to heat and keep warm, so the heating effect on the rice noodle rolls is significantly better, which improves the processing efficiency of the rice noodle rolls. At the same time, since a barrier component 400 is provided between the heating tube 300 and the dry-burning tube 500, the upward movement of water vapor is well achieved through the barrier structure, and the impact of boiling water jumping onto the dry-burning tube 500 on heating the dry-burning tube 500 is avoided, thereby reducing heat loss. Therefore, the present application reduces the impact of the heating tube 300 on the dry-burning tube 500, reduces heat loss, and improves the efficiency of steaming rice noodle rolls.

[0030] It is understood that the barrier assembly 400 includes a baffle 410, and the barrier structure is a plurality of through holes 411 provided on the baffle 410, and the through holes 411 are used to pass water vapor. Figures 2 to 3 As shown, in this embodiment, the setting of the baffle 410 can not only ensure that the water vapor rises through the through hole 411, but also isolate the boiling water below, thereby reducing the boiling water from jumping up and hitting the dry-burning tube 500.

[0031] It is understood that the barrier assembly 400 includes a vertically arranged corrugated plate 420, both ends of which are fixed to the inner wall of the water tank 100. There are multiple corrugated plates 420 and they are arranged side by side. The multiple corrugated plates 420 are used to block water and form gaps between each other that only allow water vapor to pass through. For example, Figures 2 to 3 As shown, in this embodiment, the wavy structure of the vertically arranged wavy plate 420 prevents boiling water from jumping up and hitting the dry-burning tube 500, while ensuring that water vapor can pass through the gaps between adjacent wavy plates 420 to the upper part of the water storage tank 100, thereby improving the heating effect of the dry-burning tube 500.

[0032] It is understood that the barrier assembly 400 includes a baffle 410 and a plurality of corrugated plates 420 arranged side by side on the baffle 410. The baffle 410 is provided with a plurality of through holes 411. The corrugated plates 420 are arranged vertically, and gaps are formed between adjacent corrugated plates 420 so as to allow only water vapor to pass through. For example, Figure 3 As shown, in this embodiment, a baffle 410 with a through hole 411 and a plurality of side-by-side corrugated plates 420 are provided at the same time, thereby greatly reducing the probability of bubbles and boiling water splashing onto the dry-burning tube 500. At the same time, steam can rise to the upper part of the water tank 100 through the gaps in the corrugated plates 420 and the through holes 411.

[0033] It is understood that the auxiliary water tank 200 includes a first auxiliary water tank 210, and a water level regulating float mechanism 220 is provided in the first auxiliary water tank 210 for detecting and regulating the water level in the first auxiliary water tank 210. The first auxiliary water tank 210 is used to connect to an external water source. Figure 2 As shown, in this embodiment, the water level in the water tank 100 can be indirectly detected by the water level regulating float mechanism 220 in the first auxiliary water tank 210, thereby determining whether the water amount in the water tank 100 is sufficient.

[0034] It can be understood that the auxiliary water tank 200 also includes a second auxiliary water tank 230. The side of the second auxiliary water tank 230 is in close contact with the side of the water storage tank 100. The water replenishment port 110 connects the water storage tank 100 and the second auxiliary water tank 230. A second partition 231 is provided at the lower part of the second auxiliary water tank 230 near the first auxiliary water tank 210. A first partition 211 is provided at the lower part of the first auxiliary water tank 210 near the second auxiliary water tank 230. There is a certain distance between the first partition 211 and the second partition 231 and the upper ends are connected. The first auxiliary water tank 210 and the second auxiliary water tank 230 are connected through the upper parts of the first partition 211 and the second partition 231. For example, Figure 2 As shown, in this embodiment, by providing a second auxiliary water tank 230, the water in the first auxiliary water tank 210 can enter the second auxiliary water tank 230 before entering the water storage tank 100, and the side of the water storage tank 100 is close to the second auxiliary water tank 230, so that the water in the second auxiliary water tank 230 can be preheated, and the water in the first auxiliary water tank 210 can enter the second auxiliary water tank 230 through the first partition 211 and the upper part of the second partition 231, but at the same time, the distance between the first partition 211 and the second partition 231 can prevent the water in the first auxiliary water tank 210 from being excessively affected by the water temperature in the second auxiliary water tank 230, thereby improving the stability of the use of the water level regulating float mechanism 220 in the first auxiliary water tank 210 and avoiding the excessive influence of high temperature on the water level regulating float mechanism 220.

[0035] It is understood that a water level sensor 240 is provided in the second auxiliary water tank 230, and the sensing end of the water level sensor 240 is flush with the top of the uppermost heating pipe 300. Figure 2 As shown, in this embodiment, when an external water source begins to supply water to the steam generator, the water level in the first auxiliary water tank 210 may be appropriate, but the water levels in the second auxiliary water tank 230 and the water storage tank 100 may not completely submerge the topmost heating tube 300. If power is applied to start heating at this time, adverse consequences may occur. Therefore, a water level sensor 240 is provided in the second auxiliary water tank 230, with its sensing end flush with the top of the topmost heating tube 300. This allows power to be applied only after the water level in the water storage tank 100 has fully submerged the heating tube 300.

[0036] It is understood that a water outlet 250 is provided at the connection between the upper ends of the first partition 211 and the second partition 231. The water outlet 250 is lower than the upper end surfaces of the first partition 211 and the second partition 231 so that the water in the first auxiliary water tank 210 can flow into the second auxiliary water tank 230 through the water outlet 250. Figure 2As shown, in this embodiment, a water outlet 250 is provided so that a small amount of water in the first auxiliary water tank 210 can gradually flow into the second auxiliary water tank 230 through the water outlet 250, thereby further reducing the influence of the water temperature in the second auxiliary water tank 230 on the water temperature in the first auxiliary water tank 210.

[0037] It is understood that the water tank 100 is provided with a descaling port 130, and the bottom of the auxiliary water tank 200 is provided with a waste outlet 201 with a drain valve. Figure 1 As shown, in this embodiment, after long-term use, since the bottom of the water storage tank 100 is connected to the auxiliary water tank 200, most of the scale will be formed at the bottom of the auxiliary water tank 200. Therefore, the waste outlet 201 is provided at the bottom of the auxiliary water tank 200. When descaling, the solution used for descaling is poured into the descaling port 130. After a period of time, the waste water is discharged from the waste outlet 201 to achieve the descaling effect.

[0038] It is understandable that the water inlet 110 is a plurality of through holes provided at the bottom of the water storage tank 100. For example, Figure 2 As shown, in this embodiment, the through holes can be configured as round holes, square holes, or any other shapes. As long as the water in the auxiliary water tank 200 can gradually enter the water tank 100 through the multiple through holes at the bottom of the water tank 100, the water can be gradually heated by the heating pipe 300 and the steam can be continuously generated. This can avoid the situation where a large opening at the bottom of the water tank 100 causes too much cold water to enter the water tank 100 at once, thereby affecting the steam generation.

[0039] The embodiments of the present application have been described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the present application is not limited to the above embodiments. Various modifications can be made within the scope of knowledge possessed by ordinary technicians in the relevant technical field without departing from the purpose of the present application. In addition, the embodiments of the present application and the features of the embodiments can be combined with each other unless there is a conflict.
