[0033] The embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below, and examples of the embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and intended to be used to explain the present invention, but should not be understood as limiting the present invention.
[0034] Please refer to the following Figures 1 to 9 The cooking appliance according to the embodiment of the present invention is described.
[0035] like Figures 1 to 6 As shown, the cooking appliance of the embodiment of the present invention includes a housing 1 and a display device 2. A cooking cavity 11 is provided in the housing 1. The display device 2 includes a button assembly 21, a menu membrane 22, a light-transmitting panel 23 and a fixing bracket 24.
[0036] The button assembly 21 is arranged on the housing 1, the light-transmitting panel 23 is located on the outside of the button assembly 21, the menu membrane 22 is clamped between the button assembly 21 and the light-transmitting panel 23, the fixing bracket 24 is detachably connected to the housing 1 and is arranged on one side of the light-transmitting panel 23, and the light-transmitting panel 23 is plugged into the housing 1 and abuts against the fixing bracket 24.
[0037] According to the cooking appliance of the embodiment of the present invention, since the menu membrane 22 is sandwiched between the button assembly 21 and the light-transmitting panel 23, the menu membrane 22 and the light-transmitting panel 23 do not need to be injection-molded together, thereby facilitating the processing and manufacturing of the display device 2 and reducing the manufacturing cost of the display device 2. When assembling the light-transmitting panel 23, the light-transmitting panel 23 can be plugged into the housing 1, and then the fixing bracket 24 is assembled to the housing 1 and abutted against the light-transmitting panel 23 to restrict the movement of the light-transmitting panel 23 relative to the housing 1. This avoids the problem of installation marks such as bright marks on the light-transmitting panel 23 after installation, thereby improving the appearance quality of the cooking appliance and facilitating assembly.
[0038] It is understood that when assembling the display device 2 with the cooking appliance of the embodiment of the present invention, the light-transmitting panel 23 can be secured without inserting fasteners (e.g., screws) or providing a complex connection structure (e.g., a snap-fit structure) on the light-transmitting panel 23. In other words, the cooking appliance of the embodiment of the present invention can pre-secure the light-transmitting panel 23 to the housing 1 by plugging it in, and then positionally secure the light-transmitting panel 23 with the fixing bracket 24. This avoids the problem of bright marks, embossing, or other installation marks on the light-transmitting panel 23 after installation.
[0039] The cooking utensil may be an air fryer, an electric rice cooker, an electric pressure cooker or the like, and the present invention does not limit this.
[0040] It should be noted that the light-transmitting panel 23 is an integrally formed injection-molded part. If the light-transmitting panel 23 is over-extended, it is prone to marks such as bright marks and embossing, which can result in a poor appearance quality of the light-transmitting panel 23. Therefore, to ensure a smooth and flawless surface of the light-transmitting panel 23, the light-transmitting panel 23 can be fixed using the method described in the embodiments of the present invention.
[0041] The menu film 22 is provided with a plurality of key touch positions, which correspond one to one with the plurality of keys on the key assembly 21. The user can touch the corresponding position on the light-transmitting panel 23 to control each key.
[0042] In some embodiments, as Figures 1 to 3 As shown, a light-transmitting panel 23 is provided on the front wall of the housing 1 and is located above the cooking cavity 11. A fixing bracket 24 is mounted below the light-transmitting panel 23. By mounting the fixing bracket 24 below the light-transmitting panel 23, the cooking appliance of this embodiment of the present invention can prevent high-temperature steam within the cooking cavity 11 from entering the light-transmitting panel 23, thereby improving the electrical safety of the display device 2.
[0043] Specifically, if Figure 2 、 Figure 3 and Figure 7 As shown, the light-transmitting panel 23 includes a panel body 231 and a first rib 232. The first rib 232 is provided on the lower inner edge of the panel body 231 and extends horizontally along the left and right sides of the panel body 231. It is understood that the first rib 232 protrudes toward the inner side of the panel body 231 and extends horizontally along the left and right sides of the panel body 231. The menu membrane 22 is attached to the inner wall of the panel body 231, and the lower edge of the menu membrane 22 abuts against the upper edge of the first rib 232. Thus, the first rib 232 can constrain the position of the menu membrane 22.
[0044] like Figure 7As shown, the lower wall surface of the first rib 232 and the inner wall surface of the panel body 231 form a recessed stop 236, and the fixing bracket 24 abuts against the recessed stop 236. The cooking appliance of the embodiment of the present invention, by providing the first rib 232, can improve the structural strength of the light-transmitting panel 23. Furthermore, because the recessed stop 236 formed by the first rib 232 and the panel body 231 abuts against the fixing bracket 24, the contact area between the light-transmitting panel 23 and the fixing bracket 24 is increased, which helps improve the installation stability of the light-transmitting panel 23 and reduces the probability of high-temperature steam entering the button assembly 21 through the installation gap between the light-transmitting panel 23 and the fixing bracket 24, thereby improving the electrical safety of the display device 2.
[0045] It is understandable that if Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the front side of the cooking cavity 11 is provided with an opening 111 for placing the inner pot 3 therein, and a light-transmitting panel 23 is located directly above the opening 111. The cooking device of this embodiment of the present invention is provided with a fixing bracket 24 to prevent the high-temperature steam discharged from the opening 111 from entering the inner side of the light-transmitting panel 23. This prevents the button assembly 21 or the menu membrane 22 from coming into contact with the steam, thereby improving the electrical safety of the display device 2.
[0046] Alternatively, as Figure 6 and Figure 9 As shown, one of the fixing bracket 24 and the first rib 232 is provided with a positioning protrusion 2321, and the other is provided with a positioning groove 241. The positioning protrusion 2321 cooperates with the positioning groove 241. By providing the above-mentioned positioning structure, the cooking appliance of the embodiment of the present invention can improve the installation accuracy of the light-transmitting panel 23, avoid the problem of misalignment between the light-transmitting panel 23 and the fixing bracket 24 during installation, and prevent the light-transmitting panel 23 from popping outward after installation, which helps to improve the restraining effect of the fixing bracket 24 on the light-transmitting panel 23.
[0047] For example, the fixing bracket 24 is provided with a positioning protrusion 2321, and the first rib 232 is provided with a positioning groove 241. For another example, the first rib 232 is provided with a positioning protrusion 2321, and the fixing bracket 24 is provided with a positioning groove.
[0048] In the embodiment of the present utility model, as Figure 6 and Figure 9 As shown, the positioning protrusion 2321 is provided on the first rib 232 , and the positioning protrusion 2321 is provided at the middle position of the first rib 232 along the left-right direction. The positioning groove 241 is provided on the fixing bracket 24 , and the positioning groove 241 passes through along the up-down direction and is plugged and fixed with the positioning protrusion 2321 .
[0049] Alternatively, as Figures 3 to 5As shown, the light-transmitting panel 23 includes a panel body 231 and at least two first latches 234, one on each side of the panel body 231. The first latches 234 extend inward along the thickness of the panel body 231. The first latches 234 engage with the first mating portion 13 provided on the housing 1. The cooking appliance of this embodiment of the utility model, by providing the first latches 234 on the left and right sides of the panel body 231, facilitates securing the light-transmitting panel 23 to the housing 1. Furthermore, the two first latches 234 on the left and right sides constrain the position of the menu membrane 22, preventing the menu module from moving out of the light-transmitting panel 23 during installation.
[0050] For example, there are four first latches 234, two of which are located on the left side of the panel body 231, and the other two are located on the right side of the panel body 231. The first latches 234 are located on the left (right) edge of the panel body 231 and extend inward, thereby preventing the left and right sides of the light-transmitting panel 23 from flaring outward, thereby improving the appearance quality of the light-transmitting panel 23 after installation.
[0051] In the embodiment of the present utility model, as Figure 5 As shown, the first mating portion 13 is a mating hole 131, and the first buckle 234 is inserted into the mating hole 131 along the right front to rear direction. The first buckle 234 has an upwardly extending hook structure, which is hooked with the upper edge of the mating hole 131 to limit the light-transmitting panel 23 from detaching from the casing 1 along the rear to front direction.
[0052] Alternatively, as Figure 5 and Figure 8 As shown, the first latch 234 is provided with a hook groove 2341 and an escape groove 2342. The hook groove 2341 engages with the first mating portion 13 (mating hole 131), and the escape groove 2342 is provided at the connection between the first latch 234 and the panel body 231, and the escape groove 2342 communicates with the hook groove 2341. It is understood that the escape groove 2342 is provided at the base of the first latch 234 and is located adjacent to the hook groove 2341. By providing the escape groove 2342, the cooking appliance of this embodiment of the present invention can prevent the base of the first latch 234 from contacting the first mating portion 13 on the housing 1, thus preventing assembly interference between the base of the first latch 234 and the first mating portion 13. This prevents the appearance of installation marks such as buckle position bright markings and embossing on the light-transmitting panel 23, thereby improving the appearance quality of the light-transmitting panel 23 after installation.
[0053] For example, Figure 5 As shown, the avoidance groove 2342 and the wall surface of the matching hole 131 form a triangular structure, thereby further improving the securement of the installation between the first buckle 234 and the matching hole 131.
[0054] Alternatively, as Figure 5 and Figure 8 As shown, a first transition fillet 2343 is provided at the connection between the first buckle 234 and the panel body 231. In other words, the first transition fillet 2343 is located at the base of the first buckle 234, facing away from the avoidance groove 2342. By providing the first transition fillet 2343, the cooking appliance of this embodiment of the present invention improves the structural strength of the first buckle 234 and avoids the problem of stress concentration at the connection between the first buckle 234 and the panel body 231, which can cause installation marks such as bright buckle marks and embossing.
[0055] In some embodiments, as Figure 7 As shown, a receiving area 25 is provided on the side of the light-transmitting panel 23 facing the key assembly 21, and the menu membrane 22 is mounted within the receiving area 25. The provision of the receiving area 25 in the cooking appliance of the present invention facilitates the operator to mount the menu membrane 22 on the inner side of the light-transmitting panel 23 before assembling the menu membrane 22 onto the housing 1, thereby improving the ease of assembly of the display device 2 and facilitating assembly efficiency.
[0056] Specifically, if Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, the light-transmitting panel 23 includes a panel body 231, a first convex rib 232 and a second convex rib 233. The first convex rib 232 and the second convex rib 233 are respectively arranged on the upper and lower sides of the panel body 231. The first convex rib 232 and the second convex rib 233 extend along the left and right directions of the panel body 231, and together with the panel body 231, they form a accommodating area 25.
[0057] It should be understood that the first rib 232 is located on the lower inner edge of the panel body 231, and the second rib 233 is located on the upper inner edge of the panel body 231. The first and second ribs 232, 233 stop the menu film 22, preventing it from moving up and down during installation. In other words, the first and second ribs 232, 233 restrain the menu film 22 in its vertical position after installation, thereby increasing the overall structural strength of the light-transmitting panel 23 and extending its service life.
[0058] Optionally, the dimension L of either the first rib 232 or the second rib 233 along the thickness direction of the panel body 231 is such that 0.8 mm ≤ L ≤ 1.5 mm. For example, L can be 0.8 mm, 1.0 mm, 1.2 mm, 1.3 mm, or 1.5 mm. By adopting the aforementioned dimensional parameters for the first and second ribs 232, 233, the cooking appliance of the present invention ensures sufficient structural strength for the light-transmitting panel 23 while reducing its size, thereby saving material costs.
[0059] In some embodiments, as Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, the second rib 233 is provided with a second latch 235, which extends inward along the thickness of the panel body 231. The second latch 235 engages with a second mating portion (not shown) provided on the housing 1. It is understood that the second latch 235 is positioned adjacent to the top of the panel body 231. The provision of the second latch 235 in the cooking appliance of the present embodiment further enhances the secure connection between the light-transmitting panel 23 and the housing 1, reducing the installation gap between the upper edge of the light-transmitting panel 23 and the housing 1, and enhancing the appearance of the cooking appliance. Furthermore, since the second latch 235 is located on the second rib 233 rather than on the panel body 231, the problem of bright markings or embossing when the second latch 235 engages with the housing 1 is avoided, thereby improving the appearance of the light-transmitting panel 23 after installation.
[0060] On the other hand, the second inserting buckle 235 can also be used as an ejection position when the light-transmitting panel 23 is ejected from the mold, thereby improving the quality of the light-transmitting panel 23 when ejected from the mold.
[0061] Alternatively, as Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, a second transition fillet 2352 is provided at the connection between the second latch 235 and the second rib 233. In other words, the second transition fillet 2352 is located at the base of the second latch 235. By providing the second transition fillet 2352, the cooking appliance of this embodiment of the present invention improves the structural strength of the second latch 235 and avoids the problem of stress concentration at the connection between the second latch 235 and the panel body 231, which can cause installation marks such as bright buckle marks and embossing.
[0062] Optionally, there are two second buckles 235, which are spaced apart in the left-right direction of the second rib 233. This can improve the stability of the connection between the light-transmitting panel 23 and the housing 1.
[0063] Further, if Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, the second buckle 235 is provided with a socket 2351 , and the second matching portion is provided with a corresponding plug-in post. The socket 2351 matches with the plug-in post to fix the second buckle 235 .
[0064] In order to improve the decorative effect of the light-transmitting panel 23, belt stickers can be set on the wall surface of the first rib 232, the wall surface of the second rib 233 and the left and right sides of the panel body 231 for decoration, and electroplating, spraying, laser engraving and other processes can also be used for surface decoration.
[0065] In the embodiment of the present utility model, as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the front side of the cooking cavity 11 is provided with an opening 111 for placing and removing the inner pot 3. The front side of the housing 1 is provided with a receiving opening 12, which is located above the opening 111. The key assembly 21 includes a keypad 211 and a light shielding bracket 212. The keypad 211 is mounted on the light shielding bracket 212, which is mounted on the receiving opening 12. The cooking appliance of this embodiment of the utility model, by providing the light shielding bracket 212, can block and restrict light emitted from the keypad 211, thereby improving the appearance of the cooking appliance. Moreover, since the key assembly 21 is arranged on the front side of the housing 1, it can facilitate daily operation by the user.
[0066] For example, the light shielding bracket 212 and the fixing bracket 24 can be fixed to the housing 1 by screw connection, thereby improving the firmness of the connection of the display device 2.
[0067] Specifically, the panel body 231 includes a main body, a left side and a right side. The left side and the right side are arranged on the left and right sides of the main body respectively, and the left side and the right side are connected to the main body in an arc transition manner to improve the appearance of the display device 2 and have better integrity.
[0068] The thickness of the panel body 231 is more than 2 mm to ensure that the panel body 231 has sufficient structural strength and prolongs its service life. In addition, the surface of the panel body 231 has no structural traces and is mirror-like without any marks, and has a beautiful appearance.
