Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of household appliances, and particularly relates to a cooking machine capable of stir-frying evenly. Background Art

[0002] With socioeconomic development and improved living standards, people's dietary requirements are becoming increasingly sophisticated. They not only pursue delicious food but also focus on health and nutrition. Traditional cooking methods rely primarily on manual labor, such as stir-frying with a spatula. While this method is flexible, it clearly cannot meet the requirements of efficient production and standardized cooking in large-scale or commercial food processing scenarios.

[0003] While traditional stir-fryers are designed to automate cooking, disassembling the pot can be cumbersome in practice, especially when the internal components need to be repaired or cleaned. Because the pot is typically secured to the machine body with multiple screws or other fasteners, disassembly requires tools to loosen these fasteners one by one, which is not only time-consuming and labor-intensive, but also inconvenient to replace if a component is damaged. This not only increases the maintenance cost of the stir-fryer but also reduces its availability and efficiency. During the cooking process, existing stir-fryers often suffer from an uneven distribution of ingredients within the pot due to the inadequate design of the stirring mechanism. This is particularly true for dishes that require constant stirring to maintain a good texture, such as vegetables and meat. If the ingredients are not evenly heated, not only will the taste of the food be affected, but some parts may be overcooked while others are undercooked, seriously affecting the final cooking result.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0017] In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand the solution of the present invention, the technical solution in the specific implementation manner of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below.

[0018] The present application discloses a cooking machine 100 capable of stir-frying food evenly. Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, it includes a pot body 11 and an electromagnetic follower 12. The pot body 11 includes a hollow cavity. A food inlet is passed through the top of the pot body 11. The width of the pot body 11 near the food inlet is smaller than the width of the pot body 11 near the middle of the pot body 11. The pot body 11 is provided with a pot body hinge 111 that can be opened and closed from the food inlet to the middle of the pot body 11 on the side near the food inlet. A plurality of supporting legs 112 are provided at the bottom of the pot body 11, and electromagnetic drive parts 113 are provided on both sides of the pot body 11. Figure 3 As shown, the electromagnetic follower 12 includes a driven ball 121 and a plurality of stirring rods 122 made of magnetic material and arranged on the driven ball 121. Stirring plates 123 are respectively arranged on both sides of the stirring rod 122. A contact portion 124 is provided on the side of the stirring rod 122 away from the driven ball 121. The contact portion 124 is provided to prevent the stirring rod 122 from damaging the pot body 11. The pot body hinge 111 can be opened when needed. The pot body hinge 111 is used to facilitate cleaning of the inside of the pot body 11 and maintenance of the electromagnetic follower 12. The stir-frying machine 100 of the present application, which can stir-fry evenly, controls the electromagnetic follower 12 arranged in the pot body 11 through the electromagnetic drive part 113 arranged on both sides of the pot body 11, and controls the rotation of the electromagnetic follower 12 through electromagnetic action, thereby controlling the electromagnetic follower 12 to stir the ingredients in the pot body 11. The stirring speed of the electromagnetic follower 12 of the present application can be controlled according to the current size of the electromagnetic drive part, so that the user can control the stir-frying speed according to the needs of stir-frying, and can also control the rotation direction of the electromagnetic follower 12 by adjusting the current size of the electromagnetic drive parts on both sides, thereby controlling the flipping direction of the ingredients during stir-frying, so that the ingredients inside the pot body 11 are stir-fried in all directions, thereby being stir-fried more evenly. The electromagnetic follower 12 of the present application is centered on a driven ball 121 in the center, and a number of magnetic stirring rods 122 are installed on the outside of the driven ball 121. Through the magnetism of the stirring rods 122, the electromagnetic drive component of the pot body 11 can control the rotation direction of the electromagnetic follower 12. Stirring blades 123 are respectively provided on both sides of the stirring rod 122. The stirring blades 123 are provided to increase the effective area of ​​the electromagnetic follower 12 on the food in the pot body 11, so that the food can be stir-fried more evenly, thereby making the food heated more evenly.

[0019] As an embodiment, a plurality of stirring rods 122 are evenly distributed on the driven ball 121, and the number of stirring rods 122 is greater than or equal to 6 and less than or equal to 24. A certain number of stirring rods 122 ensures sufficient coverage within the pot body 11, so that the ingredients can be fully stirred regardless of their location within the pot body 11. If the number of stirring rods 122 is too small, it may cause stirring dead spots, resulting in uneven heating of the ingredients; while too many stirring rods 122 may interfere with each other, reducing stirring efficiency. An appropriate number of stirring rods 122 helps maintain the durability of the system. If the number of stirring rods 122 is too large, the interaction between them may increase wear and tear, reducing the service life of the system. Conversely, an appropriate number of stirring rods 122 can reduce friction between them and improve the overall durability of the system. Selecting a number of stirring rods 122 between 6 and 24 also takes into account operational flexibility. Users can adjust the number of stirring rods 122 according to their specific cooking needs to achieve the best cooking effect. For small batches of food that require delicate processing, fewer stirring rods 122 can be selected, while for large batches of food that require extensive stirring, more stirring rods 122 can be selected.

[0020] As an embodiment, a lid 114 is hingedly connected to the top of the pot body 11, and an inclined food inlet pipe 115 and a seasoning pipe 116 are provided through the lid 114. A food inlet funnel can also be provided at an angle on the end of the food inlet pipe 115 away from the lid 114 to prevent ingredients or grease from splashing out of the pot body 11 during cooking. During cooking, especially when stir-frying at high temperatures, ingredients and oil can easily splash out. By providing an inclined food inlet pipe 115 and a food inlet funnel, ingredients can be effectively guided into the pot body 11 while reducing the risk of food or grease splashing out. The inclined design allows ingredients to slide smoothly into the pot along the food inlet pipe 115 rather than falling directly into the pot, thus reducing the possibility of splashing. The inclined food inlet pipe 115 and seasoning pipe 116 design make adding ingredients and seasonings more convenient. Users can complete the addition operation without opening the entire pot lid, which not only saves time but also reduces heat loss, maintains a stable temperature in the pot, and facilitates temperature control during the cooking process.

[0021] In one embodiment, the abutment portion 124 has a shape of at least one of a rectangle, square, diamond, and trapezoid. The side of the abutment portion 124 facing away from the stirring rod 122 is provided with a plurality of outwardly projecting, spaced-apart abutment protrusions. The protrusions on the abutment portion 124 increase the friction between the stirring rod 122 and the ingredients, making it easier to push and flip the ingredients during stirring. This design helps to better disperse the ingredients, preventing them from accumulating at the bottom of the pot, thereby ensuring even heating. The shape and raised surface of the abutment portion 124 effectively prevent the stirring rod 122 from directly crushing or grinding the ingredients. Traditional flat stirring surfaces can cause the ingredients to be squeezed, especially when stirring hard ingredients, resulting in grinding that affects the taste and appearance of the ingredients. The protrusions reduce the contact area between the stirring rod 122 and the ingredients, thereby reducing pressure on the ingredients and protecting their integrity. If the stirring rod 122 directly contacts the bottom or walls of the pot during stirring, noise may be generated. By providing a protrusion on the abutting portion 124 , direct collision between the stirring rod 122 and other parts of the pot body 11 can be reduced, thereby reducing the noise level.

[0022] In one embodiment, the abutment portion 124 is spherical. Compared to other shapes, the spherical abutment portion 124 provides lower frictional resistance during rotation, reducing friction between the stirring rod 122 and the inner wall of the pot body 11 or the ingredients, allowing for smoother stirring. The spherical surface evenly distributes force during rotation, preventing excessive localized pressure caused by contact with sharp edges or flat surfaces, thereby reducing damage to the ingredients and protecting their integrity.

[0023] In one embodiment, the magnetic material used to make the stirring rod 122 is at least one of iron, cobalt, nickel, and their alloys. Iron, cobalt, nickel, and their alloys all possess excellent magnetic properties. Stirring rods 122 made from these materials can achieve efficient motion conversion under electromagnetic drive, ensuring that the stirring rod 122 accurately and quickly responds to changes in the electromagnetic field. These metal materials not only possess excellent magnetic properties but also possess high strength and wear resistance, making them suitable for long-term use and less susceptible to damage, thereby extending the service life of the stirring rod 122.

[0024] In one embodiment, a transparent viewing window is provided on one side of the pot body 11, and the bottom of the pot body 11 is weighted. This added weight improves the overall stability of the cooking machine 100, particularly during high-speed stirring or stir-frying, preventing the cooking machine 100 from shaking or moving, ensuring safe operation. This added weight also helps reduce vibration during operation, further enhancing the stability and service life of the device.

[0025] It should be understood that those skilled in the art can make improvements or changes based on the above description, and all such improvements and changes should fall within the scope of protection of the claims attached to this utility model.
