Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of household appliances, and in particular to an inner pot module and a steam oven. Background Art

[0002] A steam oven is a multifunctional kitchen appliance that combines steaming and baking functions. It integrates traditional steam cooking and baking into a single appliance, providing more flexible and diverse cooking options. The advent of a steam oven makes cooking more efficient and convenient, making it particularly suitable for busy families and those with limited kitchen space.

[0003] Currently, automatic cooking in steam ovens is generally achieved by setting temperature and time or setting power level and time. However, the weight of ingredients will affect the effect of intelligent cooking. For example, if you add 500g of ingredients and 1000g of ingredients, but use the same intelligent recipe to restore them (temperature + time or power level + time are fixed), the time required to restore different weights of ingredients will be different, which will cause the recipe restoration to fail. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this application is to provide an inner pot module and a steam oven, which can enable the steam oven to have a weighing function, and can match appropriate automatic recipes according to the weight of ingredients, so as to achieve a better effect of restoring the recipe.

Those skilled in the art will understand the specific meanings of the above terms in this application based on the specific circumstances.

[0030] The following describes some embodiments of the present application in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. In the absence of conflict, the following embodiments and features therein may be combined with each other.

[0031] refer to Figure 1 The embodiment of the present application discloses a steam oven, which includes a shell 10 and an inner pot module 20, a display module 30, an operation module 40, a control module and the inner pot module 20 arranged in the shell 10;

[0032] The display module 30 and the operation module 40 are both exposed on the housing 10, so that the user can observe the visual pattern on the display module 30 and determine parameters such as the heating power level, temperature and heating time. The operation module 40 is used for user control to adjust parameters such as the heating power level, temperature and heating time, so as to set cooking recipes.

[0033] The control module is used to receive user instructions issued by the user based on the operation module 40, and determine parameters such as heating power level, temperature and heating time according to the user instructions, so as to control the operation of the inner pot module 20 and realize cooking.

[0034] Combine Figure 2 The inner pot module 20 includes an inner pot 21 and an upper heating element 22, a lower heating element 23, a support frame and a baking tray 25 located in the inner pot 21;

[0035] The inner pot 21 mainly provides a cooking space. The upper heating element 22 and the lower heating element 23 are respectively arranged on the top wall and the bottom wall of the inner pot 21 to provide heat to heat the ingredients on the baking tray 25.

[0036] The support frame is arranged on the inner wall of the inner liner 21 , and a plurality of weighing sensors 26 are arranged on the support frame. The weighing sensors 26 are electrically connected to the control module, so that the real-time weight data read by the weighing sensors 26 can be sent to the control module.

[0037] The baking tray 25 is pressed onto all the load cells 26 .

[0038] In this way, since the weight of the baking tray 25 itself is determined, after the baking tray 25 filled with ingredients is pressed onto the multiple weighing sensors 26 set on the support frame, the weight of the ingredients can be known by subtracting the weight of the baking tray 25 from the weight read by the weighing sensor 26, so that the steam oven has a weighing function, and can match the appropriate automatic recipe according to the weight of the ingredients to achieve a better effect of restoring the recipe.

[0039] In addition, since the baking tray 25 is directly placed on the weighing sensor 26, there is no need to specially design the connection structure between the baking tray 25 and the support frame, which makes the structure simpler and reduces costs.

[0040] Optionally, the inner pot module 20 includes multiple support racks, which are spaced apart along the height direction of the inner pot 21. The baking tray 25 is placed on the weighing sensor 26 on any support rack. This allows users to flexibly choose to place the baking tray 25 on support racks at different heights. At the same time, no matter which support rack the baking tray 25 is placed on, it has a separate weighing function and will not affect each other.

[0041] Among them, the support frame has a hollow structure, and the hollow area of ​​the support frame corresponds to the upper heating element 22 and the lower heating element 23 in the height direction of the inner pot 21. The weighing sensors 26 are distributed in the area outside the hollow area on the support frame, and the edge of the baking tray 25 is pressed on the weighing sensor 26 so that the food on the baking tray 25 is in an area with greater heat intensity distribution.

[0042] Specifically, for example, the support frame includes two support bars 24 arranged in parallel, the support bars 24 are fixed on the inner wall of the inner pot 21, and the area between the two support bars 24 constitutes the hollow area of ​​the entire support frame. A weighing sensor 26 is provided on each support bar 24, and the edge of the baking tray 25 is pressed on the weighing sensor 26. The structure is simple and easy to assemble.

[0043] The weighing sensors 26 are distributed at intervals along the circumference of the baking tray 25 so that the weight of the food read by each weighing sensor 26 is more uniform and accurate.

[0044] For example, the baking tray 25 may be rectangular, and at least two weighing sensors 26 are provided on the support bar 24 .

[0045] The lower heating element 23 includes a first heating ring and a second heating ring surrounding the first heating ring, thereby ensuring that the bottom of the food is heated evenly.

[0046] The above-mentioned control module is usually a central processing unit (CPU), which can be configured with a corresponding operating system and control interface, etc. Specifically, it can be a single-chip microcomputer, DSP (Digital Signal Processing), ARM (Advanced RISC Machines, ARM processor) and other digital logic control units that can be used for automatic control. The control instructions can be loaded into the memory for storage and execution at any time. At the same time, it can have built-in CPU instruction and data memory, input and output units, power supply modules, digital simulation and other units. The specific settings can be made according to actual usage, and the embodiments of the present application are not limited to this.

[0047] In summary, the embodiment of the present application discloses an inner pot module 20 and a steam oven. By arranging multiple weighing sensors 26 on the support frame, since the weight of the baking tray 25 itself is determined, after the baking tray 25 filled with ingredients is pressed onto the multiple weighing sensors 26 arranged on the support frame, the weight of the ingredients can be known by subtracting the weight of the baking tray 25 from the weight read by the weighing sensors 26, so that the steam oven has a weighing function, and can match the appropriate automatic recipe according to the weight of the ingredients to achieve a better effect of restoring the recipe.
