[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of household appliances, in particular to a cooking utensil. Background Art

[0002] Currently, when assembling a cooking appliance with a heating tube, the first bracket of the heating tube needs to be manually installed first, and then the heating tube is installed. The other brackets are then installed in sequence while being manually held. Due to the deep cooking cavity of the shell, manually driving screws one by one is time-consuming and laborious. In addition, the heating tube may be easily cracked or damaged due to the twisting of the brackets when driving the screws. Utility Model Content

[0003] The utility model aims to solve at least one of the technical problems existing in the prior art or related technologies.

The multiple brackets are connected, eliminating the need to install the multiple brackets one by one within the cooking cavity, thereby reducing installation difficulty and time.

[0007] It can be understood that since multiple brackets are connected, multiple brackets can be assembled together outside the cooking cavity (for example, multiple brackets can be connected through an adapter plate, or multiple brackets can be directly connected) and then installed in the cooking cavity.

Therefore, the scope of protection of the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.

[0051] Refer to the following Figures 1 to 5 The present invention describes a cooking appliance according to some embodiments of the present invention.

[0053] The cooking device 1 provided by the present invention includes a housing 10, a plurality of brackets 14, and a heating tube 12. The brackets 14 are disposed within a cooking cavity, and the heating tube 12 is mounted on the brackets 14. Thus, the heating tube 12 is installed within the cooking cavity to provide heat to the cooking cavity 102. The plurality of brackets 14 are connected, eliminating the need to install the brackets 14 one by one within the cooking cavity 102, thereby reducing installation difficulty and time.

[0054] It can be understood that since the multiple brackets 14 are connected, the multiple brackets 14 can be assembled together outside the cooking cavity 102 (for example, the multiple brackets 14 are connected through the adapter plate 16, or the multiple brackets 14 are directly connected), and then installed in the cooking cavity 102. It is also possible to make the multiple brackets 14 integrally formed or the multiple brackets 14 and the cooking cavity 102 integrally formed, and then when assembling the cooking utensil 1, there is no need to install the brackets 14 one by one in the cooking cavity 102, which greatly reduces the difficulty of installation.

[0056] In this embodiment, multiple brackets 14 are connected via an adapter plate 16, which is connected to the cooking cavity 102. This allows the heating tube 12, brackets 14, and adapter plate 16 to be pre-assembled together to form an assembly. Thus, when installing the heating tube 12, the adapter plate 16 can be directly operated to connect the adapter plate 16 to the housing 10, allowing the heating tube 12 to be installed within the cooking cavity 102, thereby enabling the heating tube 12 to cook the food within the cooking cavity 102. The cooking device 1 proposed in this application simplifies the installation of the heating tube 12 within the housing 10, significantly shortens assembly time and reduces assembly difficulty, thereby improving the assembly quality and reliability of the heating tube 12.

[0059] In some embodiments, optionally, the adapter plate 16 and the bracket 14 are an integrated structure.

[0060] In this embodiment, the adapter plate 16 and the bracket 14 are an integrated structure, which reduces the assembly process between the bracket 14 and the adapter plate 16, reduces the assembly difficulty, and improves the assembly speed.

[0065] In this embodiment, the adapter plate 16 is provided with a mounting hole 160, and a connector is provided in the mounting hole 160 to connect the adapter plate 16 and the housing 10, thereby improving the connection strength between the housing 10 and the adapter plate 16. Optionally, the adapter plate 16 and the housing 10 are connected by a slot and a block, thereby reducing the difficulty of assembly, improving assembly efficiency, and reducing the number of parts required for assembly.

[0066] Optionally, the connecting member comprises a screw.

[0068] In this embodiment, the heating tube 12 is an annular structure having a first opening 120 , the adapter plate 16 is an annular structure, and the shape of the heating tube 12 matches the shape of the adapter plate 16 , thereby reducing the material usage of the adapter plate 16 .

[0069] Optionally, the heating tube 12 is an annular structure having a first opening 120 along the circumference.

[0070] In some embodiments, optionally, the plurality of brackets 14 and the housing 10 are integrally formed.

[0071] In this embodiment, the multiple brackets 14 are integrally formed with the housing 10 , and when installing the heating tube 12 , it is only necessary to install the heating tube 12 on the multiple brackets 14 , without having to install the brackets 14 , thereby reducing the number of assembly steps.

[0072] Optionally, the heating tube 12 is snap-connected to the bracket 14. When the bracket 14 and the shell 10 are integrally formed, when installing the heating tube 12, it is only necessary to snap the heating tube 12 onto the bracket 14 in the cooking cavity 102, which is simple and quick to operate.

[0073] In some embodiments, optionally, the stent 14 comprises a flexible stent.

[0074] In this embodiment, the bracket 14 includes a flexible bracket, which can be deformed appropriately, so that when the heating tube 12 is installed, abnormal displacement or impact can occur between the heating tube 12 and the bracket 14, so that when the bracket 14 and the heating tube 12 are squeezed, the heating tube 12 is prevented from being broken.

[0075] Optionally, the flexible bracket has a certain elasticity, so that the bracket 14 can be elastically deformed, and then when the external force is eliminated, the bracket 14 can also reset the heating tube 12, thereby ensuring the reliability of the installation position of the heating tube 12.

[0076] like Figure 3 As shown, in some embodiments, optionally, the bracket 14 includes: a supporting portion 142 and a connecting portion 144 .

[0077] Specifically, the support portion 142 is clamped on the outer side of the heating tube 12 ; the connecting portion 144 is connected to the support portion 142 , and the connecting portion 144 is connected to the housing 10 .

[0078] In this embodiment, the bracket 14 includes a support portion 142 and a connecting portion 144. The connecting portion 144 is connected to the support portion 142. The support portion 142 is clamped on the outside of the heating tube 12. The connecting portion 144 is connected to the housing 10, thereby achieving the connection between the bracket 14, the heating tube 12 and the housing 10. When installing the heating tube 12 and the bracket 14, the heating tube 12 can be clamped in the support portion 142. This simplifies the installation process of the heating tube 12 and the bracket 14, eliminates the need for additional connecting structures, and reduces the use of parts.

[0079] Optionally, when the cooking appliance 1 includes an adapter plate 16 , the connecting portion 144 is connected to the adapter plate 16 .

[0080] Optionally, when the bracket 14 and the housing 10 are an integral structure, the connecting portion 144 and the housing 10 are an integral structure.

[0081] like Figure 3 As shown, in some embodiments, optionally, in some embodiments, optionally, the supporting portion 142 includes a first bent portion 1422, the first bent portion 1422 has a second opening 1420, and the first bent portion 1422 is clamped on the outside of the heating tube 12 through the second opening 1420; the connecting portion 144 includes a second bent portion 1442, one end of the second bent portion 1442 is connected to one end of the first bent portion 1422, and the second bent portion 1442 has a third opening 1440, and the third opening 1440 and the second opening 1420 are facing the same side of the bracket 14 or towards two opposite sides of the bracket 14.

[0082] In this embodiment, the support portion 142 includes a first curved portion 1422, and the connecting portion 144 includes a second curved portion 1442. The first curved portion 1422 has a second opening 1420. When installing the heating tube 12, the heating tube 12 is clamped into the first curved portion 1422 through the second opening 1420, thereby achieving a connection between the bracket 14 and the heating tube 12. The second curved portion 1442 includes a third opening 1440, and the third opening 1440 and the second opening 1420 are oriented toward the same side or opposite sides of the bracket 14. This allows the second curved portion 1442 to act as a buffer. Furthermore, the deformation of the second curved portion 1442 can absorb abnormal displacement during installation of the heating tube 12 or when the heating tube 12 is pressed, thereby preventing the heating tube 12 from being squeezed and possibly ruptured.

[0083] Optionally, when the third opening 1440 and the second opening 1420 are oriented toward opposite sides of the bracket 14 , the first curved portion 1422 and the second curved portion 1442 are substantially in an “S” shape.

[0084] In some embodiments, optionally, the connecting portion 144 further includes: a connecting structure 1444 connected to the other end of the second bent portion 1442 , and the connecting structure 1444 is connected to the housing.

[0085] In this embodiment, the connecting portion 144 also includes a connecting structure 1444, one end of the second bent portion 1442 is connected to the first bent portion 1422, and the other end of the second bent portion 1442 is connected to the connecting structure 1444, so that there is a gap between the connecting structure 1444 and the supporting portion 142, thereby preventing the connecting structure 1444 from directly contacting the supporting portion 142 when the heating tube 12 is installed or the heating tube 12 is pressed by external force, thereby preventing the heating tube 12 from breaking.

[0086] It can be understood that the supporting portion 142 includes a first bent portion 1422 having a second opening 1420, so the first bent portion 1422 has two ends, and the second opening 1420 is enclosed between the two ends of the first bent portion 1422. Correspondingly, the connecting portion 144 includes a second bent portion 1442 having a third opening 1440, so the second bent portion 1442 has two ends, and the third opening 1440 is enclosed between the two ends of the second bent portion 1442.

[0091] In this embodiment, the bracket 14 includes a metal sheet 140, which can produce elastic deformation, thereby causing abnormal displacement or impact between the heating tube 12 and the bracket 14, so as to prevent the heating tube 12 from breaking when the bracket 14 and the heating tube 12 are squeezed.

[0092] In some embodiments, optionally, the thickness of the metal sheet 140 is greater than or equal to 0.05 mm and less than or equal to 1 mm.

[0093] In this embodiment, the thickness of the metal sheet 140 is set between 0.05 mm and 1 mm, so that the metal sheet 140 has a certain elasticity and reduces the weight and cost of the bracket 14, thereby preventing abnormal displacement or impact from occurring between the heating tube 12 and the bracket 14, thereby preventing the heating tube 12 from breaking when the bracket 14 and the heating tube 12 are squeezed.

[0094] Optionally, the thickness of the metal sheet 140 is any value among 0.05mm, 0.06mm, 0.07mm, 0.08mm, 0.09mm, 0.1mm, 0.11mm, 0.12mm, 0.13mm, 0.14mm, 0.15mm, 0.16mm, 0.17mm, 0.18mm, 0.19mm, 0.2mm, 0.3mm, 0.4mm, 0.5mm, 0.6mm, 0.7mm, 0.8mm, 0.9mm, and 1mm.

[0095] In some embodiments, optionally, the heating tube 12 includes any one of a graphene heating tube, a metal heating tube, and a graphite heating tube.

[0096] In this embodiment, the heating tube 12 comprises any one of a graphene heating tube, a metal heating tube, and a graphite heating tube. The graphene heating tube 12 exhibits excellent electrical, thermal, mechanical, and optical properties. Furthermore, its luminous and heat-generating properties make the heat generated by the heating tube 12 more visible, allowing the user to observe the cooking chamber 102. Metal or graphite heating tubes are also inexpensive, helping to reduce costs.

[0097] like Figure 4 As shown, in some embodiments, optionally, the housing 10 includes a cooking opening 104 , which is in communication with the cooking cavity 102 , and the heating tube 12 is installed on a side of the housing 10 opposite to the cooking opening 104 .

[0098] In this embodiment, the housing 10 includes a cooking opening 104, which communicates with the cooking cavity 102, allowing food to be placed in and out of the cooking cavity 102. A heating tube 12 is mounted on the side of the housing 10 opposite the cooking opening 104 to enhance the cooking effect of the food, increase the distance between the heating tube 12 and the door, and reduce energy loss.

[0099] Optionally, the cooking appliance 1 further includes a door, which is rotatably connected to the housing 10 and is used to open or close the cooking opening 104 .

[0100] In some embodiments, optionally, the cooking appliance 1 comprises a built-in cooking appliance.

[0101] In this embodiment, the cooking appliance 1 comprises a built-in cooking appliance, so that the cooking appliance 1 is integrated with the cabinet, improving the aesthetics and consistency of the kitchen. At the same time, the built-in cooking appliance can also increase the internal space of the cooking cavity 102, thereby being able to cook larger ingredients.

[0102] Optionally, the cooking appliance 1 includes a steam oven, an oven, a microwave oven, and the like.

[0103] In specific applications, the annular structure of the heating tube 12 gives it excellent electrical, thermal, mechanical and optical properties, and due to its luminous and heat-generating characteristics, the heat is more obvious and the user experience is better.

[0104] Specifically, the heating tube assembly includes a heating tube 12, an adapter support plate (such as an adapter plate 16) and a flexible bracket, etc., and has the advantages of simple structure and low cost. The flexible bracket is fixed to the adapter support plate by riveting. The flexible bracket is made of 0.1mm stainless steel sheet and has a certain elasticity to prevent the heating tube 12 from being squeezed with the bracket 14 and the glass tube (such as the heating tube 12) due to abnormal displacement or impact, resulting in the heating tube 12 being broken. The heating tube 12 is fixed to the adapter support plate by the flexible bracket. After the assembly is assembled, it is installed into the cooking cavity 102 through three assembly screws to achieve a fixed connection. The heating tube assembly proposed in this application first pre-assembles the heating tube 12 and the adapter plate 16, and then assembles the screws of the heating tube assembly to the back plate of the cooking cavity 102 of the embedded steam oven, which greatly shortens the assembly time and reduces the difficulty of assembly. The use of pre-assembly technology and component production improves the assembly quality and reliability of the heating tube 12.

[0105] In the related art, when assembling a heating tube, it is necessary to manually install the first bracket of the heating tube first, then install the heating tube, and then install the other brackets in sequence while manually holding it. Due to the deep depth of the cooking cavity of the shell, relying on manual screwing one by one is time-consuming and labor-intensive, and the heating tube can easily be cracked or damaged due to the twisting of the bracket when driving the screws. The heating tube assembly proposed in this application can first install the flexible bracket and heating tube 12 into the adapter plate 16 by riveting, and then fix the entire assembly to the interior of the cooking cavity 102 by locking screws, thereby reducing the assembly time by 90% (from the previous 10 minutes to 1 minute) and greatly reducing the difficulty of assembly, thereby ensuring assembly reliability and effectively avoiding damage to the heating tube 12 due to poor assembly (the assembly damage rate in the related art is close to 50%).
