[0029] The technical solution of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all of the embodiments.

[0030] The components of the embodiments of the present invention generally described and shown in the drawings herein may be arranged and designed in a variety of different configurations. Therefore, the following detailed description of the embodiments of the present invention provided in the drawings is not intended to limit the scope of the claimed invention, but rather merely represents selected embodiments of the present invention.

[0031] Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making any creative work shall fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0032] In the description of the present invention, it should be noted that the terms "center", "up", "down", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "inside", "outside", etc., indicating directions or positional relationships, are based on the directions or positional relationships shown in the accompanying drawings. They are only for the convenience of describing the present invention and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific direction, be constructed and operated in a specific direction. Therefore, they cannot be understood as limitations on the present invention.

[0033] In the description of this utility model, it should be noted that, unless otherwise expressly specified or limited, the terms "mounted," "connected," and "connected" should be understood in a broad sense. For example, they can refer to fixed connections, detachable connections, or integral connections; mechanical connections, electrical connections; direct connections, indirect connections through an intermediate medium, and internal communication between two components. Those skilled in the art will understand the specific meanings of the above terms in this utility model based on the specific circumstances.

[0034] Furthermore, terms such as "horizontal," "vertical," and "overhanging" do not necessarily imply that a component must be absolutely horizontal or overhanging, but rather that it can be slightly tilted. For example, "horizontal" simply means that its direction is more horizontal than "vertical," and does not mean that the structure must be completely horizontal, but rather that it can be slightly tilted.

[0035] like Figures 1 to 5As shown, the utility model provides a cooking device, including a box body 1 and a box door 2, the box body 1 has an opening for taking in and putting food, and the box door 2 is rotatably arranged on the box body 1 and can open and close the opening, that is, the box door 2 is arranged on the opening side of the box body 1; a limiting groove 3 is provided on one of the box body 1 and the box door 2, and also includes: a support member 4, which is at least partially an elastic structure that deforms after being compressed, and the support member 4 can be detachably installed in the limiting groove 3, and has at least two assembly forms: in a first assembly form, the support member 4 is accommodated in the limiting groove 3, and when the box door 2 closes the opening, it is located between the inner side of the box door 2 and the peripheral edge of the opening; in a second assembly form, the support member 4 is at least partially located outside the limiting groove 3, and can abut against the other of the box body 1 and the box door 2 when the box door 2 is in a state of closing the opening, thereby leaving a gap between the box body 1 and the box door 2 for air discharge.

[0036] In this embodiment, the limiting groove 3 is provided on one surface of the box body 1 and the box door 2 facing the other, so that when the support member 4 is assembled in the limiting groove 3, the support member 4 can be located between the inner side of the box door 2 (the side close to the box body 1 is the inner side) and the edge of the opening. Through the detachable connection between the support member 4 and the limiting groove 3, different assembly forms of the support member 4 can be achieved, and the assembly form of the support member 4 can be changed. There are at least two assembly forms of the support member 4 and the limiting groove 3. In the first assembly form, as shown in FIG. Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, the support member 4 is accommodated in the limiting groove 3, the door 2 can close the opening, and the cooking device can work in a closed state; in the second assembly state, as shown Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, at least part of the support member 4 can be located outside the limiting groove 3, so that it can abut against the other one of the box body 1 and the door 2 (the one opposite to the limiting groove 3), thereby leaving a gap between the box body 1 and the door 2. The moisture in the cooking equipment can be discharged through the gap, thereby achieving dehumidification of the cooking equipment during operation.

[0037] Therefore, in the cooking equipment provided in this embodiment, no matter what assembly form the support member 4 and the limiting groove 3 are in, the support member 4 can be installed in the limiting groove 3 without removing the support member 4 from the door 2 or the box body 1, which is convenient for storage and not easy to lose.

[0038] Among them, when the first assembly form is realized, before the box door 2 is closed, the state of the support member 4 installed in the limit groove 3 can be: the support member 4 is completely hidden in the limit groove 3; or, the support member 4 is flush with the notch of the limit groove 3; or, the support member 4 extends out of a part of the limit groove 3. Since at least a part of the support member 4 can be deformed after being compressed, during the process of closing the box door 2, the support member 4 is squeezed and deformed and accommodated in the limit groove 3, thereby realizing that the box door 2 closes the opening. In this case, the closing of the box door 2 is buffered, and the box door 2 is prevented from collision.

[0039] Among them, the structural forms of the support member 4 and the limiting groove 3 that realize various assembly forms of the support member 4 can be various, for example: there are at least two mutually isolated cavities in the limiting groove 3, and the depths of the multiple cavities are different, among which the depth of the first cavity is greater than the depth of the second cavity. When the support member 4 is installed in the first cavity, the support member 4 can be in the first assembly form, and when the support member 4 is installed in the second cavity, the support member 4 can be in the second assembly form.

[0040] As an alternative, Figures 1 to 5 As shown, the support member 4 has a first side surface 41 and a second side surface 42 that are relatively arranged, and a contact portion 43 that extends laterally to protrude from the first side surface 41; when the support member 4 is in the first assembly form, the contact portion 43 abuts against the bottom of the limiting groove 3; when the support member 4 is in the second assembly form, the contact portion 43 is located outside the limiting groove 3.

[0041] In this embodiment, in the depth direction of the limiting groove 3, the first side surface 41 and the second side surface 42 are arranged opposite to each other, and a contact portion 43 is provided on the first side surface 41. When the support member 4 is in the first assembly state, the contact portion 43 abuts against the bottom of the limiting groove 3, and naturally the second side surface 42 faces away from the bottom of the limiting groove 3. When the support member 4 is in the second assembly state, the contact portion 43 is located outside the limiting groove 3 to achieve abutment with the other of the box body 1 and the door 2, and naturally the second side surface 42 faces the bottom of the limiting groove 3. If the cooking device is operating in a closed state, the support member 4 is installed in the limiting groove 3 so that the contact portion 43 abuts against the bottom of the groove. If the cooking device needs to operate in a dehumidification state, the support member 4 is flipped over and installed in the limiting groove 3 so that the contact portion 43 is located outside the limiting groove 3. In this way, no matter whether the support member 4 is in the first assembly form or the second assembly form, the main part of the support member 4 located between the first side surface 41 and the second side surface 42 can be located in the limiting groove 3, and the main part of the support member 4 can be set to a size that is compatible with the notch of the limiting groove 3. Then, no matter what assembly form the support member 4 is in, the main part of the support member 4 can fill the limiting groove 3, thereby preventing impurities from entering the limiting groove 3, reducing cleaning, and making the structure of the support member 4 and the limiting groove 3 regular.

[0042] The cross section of the support member 4 may be circular, elliptical, triangular or square; preferably, the shape of the notch of the limiting groove 3 is the same as the shape of the cross section of the support member 4 .

[0043] The contact portion 43 may be a cylinder or prism protruding from the first side surface 41 in the height direction of the support member 4 (ie, the depth direction of the limiting groove 3). The contact portion 43 may be a whole body, or may include a plurality of separate bodies spaced apart.

[0044] As an alternative, Figure 5 As shown, the support member 4 is strip-shaped, and the contact portion 43 is a retaining rib that protrudes laterally from the first side surface 41 and extends along the length direction of the support member 4 (the length direction of the support member 4 is perpendicular to its height direction). In this embodiment, the limiting groove 3 is also provided in a strip shape, and the retaining rib extends along both the height direction and the length direction of the support member 4, facilitating the integral molding of the support member 4.

[0045] The contact portion 43 can be disposed in the middle of the support member 4 (the support member can be in the shape of a column, block, etc.), and a relatively spaced-apart space is provided within the limit slot 3. It is understood that the limit block is lower than the notch of the limit slot 3, and a space is formed between the limit block and the notch to accommodate the main portion of the support member 4. When the support member 4 is in the first assembled configuration, the contact portion 43 is located in the space, and the main portion of the support member 4 is located in the space between the limit block and the notch. When the support member 4 is flipped over, the main portion of the support member 4 is located in the space between the limit block and the notch, and the contact portion 43 extends out of the limit slot 3.

[0046] As an alternative, Figure 5 As shown, the retaining rib is offset in the width direction of the support member 4, that is, in the width direction of the support member 4, the retaining rib is arranged on one side of the main part of the support member 4; a step 31 is provided at the bottom of the limiting groove 3, and the step 31 is arranged lower than the groove opening, and a space for accommodating the main part of the support member 4 is formed between the step 31 and the groove opening; the step 31 is offset in the width direction of the limiting groove 3 to form a recessed area 32 opposite to the step 31 in the limiting groove 3, that is, in the width direction of the limiting groove 3, the step 31 and the recessed area 32 are arranged side by side; in the first assembly form, the support member 4 is accommodated in the limiting groove 3, and the retaining rib is limited to the recessed area 32. This arrangement is convenient for processing.

[0047] like Figure 1 、 Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, based on the above embodiment, the support member 4 further has a buffer portion 44 extending laterally to protrude from the second side surface 42; in the first assembly form, the buffer portion 44 abuts against the other one of the box body 1 and the door 2 opposite to the limiting groove 3.

[0048] In this embodiment, when the cooking equipment needs to work in a closed state, the contact portion 43 is inserted into the recessed area 32 to abut against the bottom of the limiting groove 3, and at least part of the buffer portion 44 is located outside the limiting groove 3. In the process of closing the box door 2, the buffer portion 44 first contacts the other of the box body 1 and the box door 2, and the box door 2 continues to close. After the support member 4 is compressed and deformed, the buffer portion 44 is accommodated in the limiting groove 3, and the box door 2 closes the opening. The buffer portion 44 can achieve anti-collision between the box door 2 and the box body 1.

[0049] like Figure 5 As shown, based on the above embodiment, a groove 33 is further provided on the step 31, and the groove 33 is connected with the recessed area 32; in the second assembly form, the buffer portion 44 is limited in the groove 33, and the buffer portion 44 is limited by the groove 33, which can make the support member 4 more firmly and stably installed in the limiting groove 3.

[0050] The buffer portion 44 may be in a triangle, an ellipse, a quadrilateral, a pentagon, a waist shape, or the like.

[0051] As an alternative, Figure 5 As shown, the buffer portion 44 is an elastic block having a circular cross section.

[0052] In this embodiment, the cross section of the buffer portion 44 is circular for ease of processing. The buffer portion 44 is a highly elastic block, so when the support member 4 is squeezed, the buffer portion 44 can be deformed and accommodated in the limit groove 3 after deformation, which can save the user effort.

[0053] The number of the buffer portion 44 can be one; the number of the buffer portion 44 can also be multiple (for example, two, three or four, etc.). In this case, the number of the grooves 33 is also multiple, and the multiple buffer portions 44 correspond one-to-one to the multiple grooves 33.

[0054] like Figure 5 As shown, based on the above embodiment, a buffer groove 45 is further provided on the peripheral wall of the buffer portion 44, and an annular groove 33 is provided, so that the buffer portion 44 is easier to deform.

[0055] On the basis of the above embodiment, further, the limiting groove 3 can be provided on the box body 1 , and the limiting groove 3 can also be provided on the box door 2 .

[0056] Taking the limiting groove 3 provided on the box door 2 as an example, the positional relationship between the limiting groove 3 and the box door 2 is specifically described.

[0057] Specifically, one of the four circumferential sides of the door 2 (the circumferential direction is not the circumferential direction in the narrow sense, but the direction along the circumference of the closed shape in the broad sense, for example, the circumferential direction can be the circumference of a quadrilateral) is rotatably connected to the corresponding edge of the box body 1; the limiting groove 3 is provided at the remaining sides and / or the corner between two adjacent sides. Among them, the door 2 and the box body 1 are both arranged in a quadrilateral, and the door 2 includes four side sides of the door 2 arranged in sequence from beginning to end. The opening of the box body 1 forms four opening edges arranged in sequence from beginning to end. One side of the box body 1 is rotatably connected to one edge of the door 2. The limiting groove 3 is provided at the other three sides or the corner between two adjacent sides, which is convenient for setting the limiting groove 3 and for changing the assembly form of the support member 4.

[0058] The side of the box door 2 that is rotatably connected to the box body 1 may be located in the width direction of the box door 2 .

[0059] As an alternative, Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the side of the door 2 that is rotatably connected to the box body 1 is located on the lower side of the door 2, and the limiting groove 3 is located on the upper side of the door 2. Specifically, the four side sides of the door 2 include a lower side at the bottom of the door 2, an upper side at the top of the door 2, a left side at the side of the door 2, and a right side at the side of the door 2. The lower side of the door 2 is rotatably connected to the box body 1, and the limiting groove 3 can be set on the upper side of the left side (near the upper side) or on the upper side of the right side. If there are multiple limiting grooves 3 and support members 4, the limiting groove 3 can be set on the upper sides of both the left and right sides.

[0060] Optionally, the limiting groove 3 is arranged on the upper side, especially in the middle of the upper side, so that the support member 4 can stably support the door 2 when it is in the second assembly form.
