Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of household appliance technology, specifically to a combination cooking appliance with multiple cooking functions. Background Technology
[0002] Existing multi-functional cooking appliances include bases, steamers, and frying pans. The base has a heating element, and the steamer and frying pan are often cast in one piece. The steamer or frying pan is placed on the base and contacts the heating element for heat conduction. The base must ensure that the heating element is large enough to fit snugly against the bottom of the steamer or frying pan to improve heating efficiency. An insulation gap is usually provided between the base and the heating element to prevent heat from the heating element from being conducted to the base surface. Dust can easily accumulate in this insulation gap. Utility Model Content
[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide a combined cooking appliance with a low base temperature.
[0004] The purpose of this utility model is achieved as follows.
[0005] A combination cooking appliance, including
[0006] The base has a lower power coupler on its top, and a first enclosure is provided on the top surface of the base, with the lower power coupler located inside the first enclosure.
[0007] A steamer, with a first electrical coupler at the bottom and a steaming rack at the top, contains a first heating device electrically connected to the first electrical coupler.
[0008] A frying pan, with a second electrical coupler at the bottom and a second heating device electrically connected to the second electrical coupler inside the frying pan.
[0009] Either the steamer or the frying pan sits within the first enclosure of the base, and the lower electric coupler is coupled and conducts electricity with the corresponding first or second upper electric coupler.
[0010] This invention features separate heating structures inside the steamer and frying pan. The base supplies power to both the steamer and frying pan, resulting in a low base temperature. The heating structures directly heat the steamer or frying pan, leading to higher heat utilization efficiency. The first enclosure wall restricts the lateral movement of the steamer and frying pan.
[0011] The above technical solution can be further improved as follows.
[0012] Furthermore, the base is provided with at least one vertical drainage channel. The outlet of the drainage channel is located on the bottom surface of the base, and the inlet of the drainage channel is located on the top surface of the base near the first enclosure wall. A lower electric coupler is provided at the center of the top surface of the base, and the top surface of the base is inclined from the lower electric coupler toward the inlet.
[0013] The drainage channel facilitates cleaning and drainage of the base, preventing water accumulation on the first enclosure wall from being difficult to clean, and ensuring that water does not easily remain in the drainage channel.
[0014] Furthermore, the base includes a cover and a seat. The cover is fixed inside the seat. The top surface of the cover is located at the entrance of the first enclosure and the drainage channel. The entrance of the drainage channel extends vertically downward from the bottom surface of the cover through the cover. The bottom surface of the seat is provided with the outlet of the drainage channel. The outlet of the drainage channel extends vertically upward from the seat through the seat. The bottom of the first drainage pipe is aligned and inserted into the second drainage pipe. The first drainage pipe and the second drainage pipe are connected to form the drainage channel. The lower electrical coupler is located at the center of the top surface of the cover.
[0015] The drainage channel has a simple structure and is easy to manufacture.
[0016] Furthermore, there are four drainage channels, which are evenly spaced around the lower electrical coupler.
[0017] The top surface of the base drains smoothly.
[0018] Furthermore, the frying pan includes a heat-insulating base and a heat-conducting pan body. The top surface of the heat-insulating base is provided with a heat-insulating reflector, and the heat-insulating reflector is provided with a receiving groove. The second heating device is placed in the receiving groove. The heat-insulating base is provided with the second upper electrical coupler. The heat-conducting pan body is installed on the heat-insulating reflector of the heat-insulating base, and the second heating device directly contacts the heat-conducting pan body.
[0019] The heat-insulating reflector helps improve the heating efficiency of the second heating device on the heat-conducting pot body, and the heat-insulating reflector prevents heat from being conducted downwards to the heat-insulating base.
[0020] Furthermore, the steamer includes a body, a heat-conducting plate, and a fixing cover. The inner cavity of the body forms the inner cavity of the steamer. An installation hole is provided in the center of the inner cavity of the steamer. The heat-conducting plate is sealed and fixed on the installation hole. The top surface of the heat-conducting plate is recessed to form a heating cavity. The first heating device is fixed on the bottom surface of the heat-conducting plate. The fixing cover is fixed on the bottom surface of the steamer body. The heat-conducting plate and the first heating device are placed inside the fixing cover.
[0021] The first heating device heats the heat-conducting plate, avoiding heating the main body, thus achieving higher thermal efficiency.
[0022] Furthermore, the steamer also includes a water baffle, which separates the inner cavity of the steamer from the heating cavity. The bottom of the water baffle has a water inlet hole, and the top of the water baffle has a steam hole. The heating device is used to heat the water in the heating cavity into steam, and the steam hole is used to allow the rising steam to be discharged from the heating cavity. The inner cavity of the steamer replenishes water to the heating cavity through the water inlet hole.
[0023] The water-blocking device divides the steamer into a high-temperature zone and a low-temperature zone. The high-temperature zone heats up rapidly to generate steam quickly, reducing preheating time, shortening cooking time, and improving cooking efficiency. The low-temperature zone replenishes water to the high-temperature zone, keeping the steamer at a lower temperature and reducing the risk of burns.
[0024] Furthermore, the top surface of the water-blocking component is provided with a fixing groove, the bottom surface of the fixing groove is hollowed out with several steam holes, and a mesh plate with mesh holes is provided inside the fixing groove, with the mesh holes and steam holes aligned and connected.
[0025] The mesh plate disperses the steam discharged from the steam holes, reducing the risk. At the same time, the mesh plate makes the water-blocking parts and heating chamber more relatively enclosed, improving the steam generation efficiency.
[0026] This invention features separate heating structures within the steamer and frying pan. The base supplies power to both the steamer and frying pan, maintaining a low base temperature. The heating structures directly heat the steamer or frying pan, resulting in higher heat utilization efficiency. A first enclosure restricts lateral movement of the steamer and frying pan. A heat-insulating reflector helps improve the heating efficiency of the second heating device on the heat-conducting pan body, preventing heat from being conducted downwards to the heat-insulating base. The first heating device heats the heat-conducting plate, avoiding heating the main body, thus achieving higher heat utilization efficiency. A water-blocking component divides the steamer into a high-temperature zone and a low-temperature zone. The high-temperature zone rapidly heats up to generate steam, reducing preheating time, shortening cooking time, and improving cooking efficiency. The low-temperature zone replenishes water to the high-temperature zone, keeping the steamer temperature lower and reducing the risk of burns. Attached Figure Description
