Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of steaming and cooking equipment technology, specifically an integrated rice dumpling steamer. Background Technology

[0002] A rice dumpling steamer, also known as a rice dumpling cooking pot or a pressure cooker, is a type of cooker characterized by reliable sealing and a long service life. It is commonly used in food processing, especially for the rapid and efficient processing of rice dumplings and similar foods. A rice dumpling steamer is a specialized piece of equipment for steaming and cooking rice dumplings.

[0003] Referring to patent CN215775343U, a high-temperature and high-pressure cooking device with a safety self-locking protection is disclosed, including a tank body and a tank cover. The lower surface of the tank body is soldered to support legs on all four sides. A control box is installed on one side of the tank body, and the rear of the control box is fixedly connected to a bolted support column. The upper end of the support column is movably connected to one end of a cylinder fixing plate via a pin. The upper surface of the other end of the cylinder fixing plate is fixedly connected to a cylinder via bolts. The lower end of the cylinder is fixedly connected to the center of the upper surface of the tank cover via a cylinder rod. In this high-temperature and high-pressure cooking device with a safety self-locking protection, the movable pin displays different shades of color according to different pressures, allowing for a visual understanding of the internal pressure of the tank. At the same time, the pressure pin penetrates the tank cover and the tank body to fix them in place, preventing displacement and ensuring the stability of the connection. The edges of the tank cover and the tank body are respectively secured by locking pins, and the height of the limiting ring is adjusted by the locking tongue, placing the limiting ring on the upper surface of the edge of the tank cover, further ensuring the stability of the connection between the tank cover and the tank body.

[0004] In the above-mentioned cooking pot, the lid and the pot body are connected and fixed by multiple locking pin threaded connections with locking tongues with limit rings. However, this connection method requires repeated operation, which is cumbersome, inconvenient to use, and has relatively low fixing and disassembly efficiency, resulting in relatively poor practicality.

This makes it easy to separate or connect the tank body and the tank cover, which is convenient to operate, has higher disassembly and assembly efficiency, and is more practical.

[0008] Furthermore, the limiting component includes a limiting cylinder, which is fixedly connected to the toothed ring. A push rod is provided inside the limiting cylinder, with one end of the push rod passing through one end of the limiting cylinder.

A groove adapted to the locking block is opened at the bottom of the limiting cylinder. A limiting ring is fixedly sleeved on the lower outer wall of the fixing ring. A rail groove is opened on the top of the limiting ring near the fixing ring. Several locking slots adapted to the locking blocks are symmetrically provided on the top of the limiting ring, and the locking slots communicate with the rail grooves. The limiting component is designed to restrict and fix the position of the toothed ring, preventing accidental contact that could cause the toothed ring to rotate, thus affecting the connection and fixation effect between the can body and the can lid.

[0009] Furthermore, the threaded cylinder is rotatably connected to the fixed ring via a bearing, and the threaded column and the fixed column are combined in a T-shape to fix the threaded cylinder without affecting its rotation.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0013] 1. This utility model, through a connecting mechanism, can drive a gear ring to synchronously drive multiple gears to rotate a threaded cylinder, thereby driving multiple threaded columns to move a fixed column. After the fixed column moves out of the limiting groove, it continues to rotate, so that the fixed column and the threaded column follow the threaded cylinder to rotate synchronously to the position corresponding to the through groove. Then, the tank cover can be moved up and disassembled, which can be done conveniently and quickly.

[0021] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0022] Example: Figure 1 - Figure 5As shown, this utility model provides a technical solution: an integrated rice dumpling steamer, including a base 1, a tank 2 on the top of the base 1, a lid 3 on the top of the tank 2, a heater 4 embedded in the base 1, a support column 7 on one side of the base 1, and a controller on one side of the support column 7. A fixing plate 8 is rotatably connected to the upper end of the support column 7. A cylinder 9 is provided on the top of the fixing plate 8, and the output end of the cylinder 9 passes through the fixing plate 8 and is connected to the tank 2. A pressure gauge 10, a temperature sensor 11, a safety valve 12, and a pressure sensor 13 are provided on the top of the tank 2. The tank 2 and the lid 3 are connected by a connecting mechanism. A support ring 5 is provided on the inner wall of the tank 2, and a steaming tray 6 is provided on the top of the support ring 5. The connecting mechanism includes a connecting ring 14 and a fixing ring 15. The connecting ring 14 is fixedly sleeved on the outer side of the lower end of the tank 2, and the fixing ring 15 is fixedly sleeved on the outer side of the upper end of the tank 2. In this example, the connecting mechanism also includes a gear ring 18. An adjustment groove is provided on the outer wall of the fixed ring 15. The gear ring 18 is rotatably installed within the adjustment groove. Several transmission grooves are symmetrically provided on the inner wall of the adjustment groove. A threaded cylinder 16, passing through both ends of the fixed ring 15, is rotatably installed within the transmission groove. A gear 17 is fitted inside the transmission groove on the outer wall of the threaded cylinder 16, and the gear 17 meshes with the gear ring 18. Guide rings 21 are provided on both the upper and lower walls of the gear ring 18. Circular grooves adapted to the guide rings 21 are symmetrically provided on the inner wall of the adjustment groove. Several handles are symmetrically provided on the outer wall of the gear ring 18. A threaded post 19 is threadedly connected to the inner side of the threaded cylinder 16, and a fixed post 19 is connected to a fixed end above the fixed ring 15. The bottom of the column 20 and the connecting ring 14 are symmetrically provided with several through grooves that are adapted to the fixed column 20. The top of the connecting ring 14 is symmetrically provided with several limiting grooves that connect to the through grooves. The top of the connecting ring 14 is symmetrically provided with several stops 28, and the stops 28 are located on the side of the limiting groove away from the tank body 2. The toothed ring 18 is provided with a limiting component between two adjacent handles. The connection mechanism can synchronously drive multiple gears 17 to drive the threaded cylinder 16 to rotate, thereby driving the threaded column 19 to move, so as to separate or connect it with the connecting ring 14. This makes it easy to separate or connect the tank body 2 and the tank cover 3, which is convenient to operate, has higher disassembly and assembly efficiency, and is more practical. In this example, the limiting component includes a limiting cylinder 23, which is fixedly connected to the toothed ring 18. A push rod 24 is provided inside the limiting cylinder 23, with one end of the push rod 24 passing through one end of the limiting cylinder 23. A slider 25 connected to the other end of the push rod 24 is slidably installed inside the limiting cylinder 23. A spring 27 is sleeved on the outside of the push rod 24 on the side of the slider 25 away from the can lid 3. A locking block 26 is connected to the bottom of the slider 25. A groove adapted to the locking block 26 is opened at the bottom of the limiting cylinder 23. A limiting ring 22 is fixedly sleeved on the lower outer wall of the fixing ring 15. A rail groove is opened on the top of the limiting ring 22 near the fixing ring 15. Several locking slots adapted to the locking block 26 are symmetrically provided on the top of the limiting ring 22, and the locking slots are connected to the rail grooves. The setting of the limiting component allows it to restrict and fix the position of the toothed ring 18, preventing accidental contact that could cause the toothed ring 18 to rotate, thereby affecting the connection and fixation effect between the can body 2 and the can lid 3.

[0023] In this example, the threaded cylinder 16 is rotatably connected to the fixed ring 15 via a bearing. The threaded post 19 and the fixed post 20 are combined in a T-shape to connect and fix the threaded cylinder 16 without affecting its rotation. The structure of the threaded post 19 and the fixed post 20 allows them to cooperate with the connecting ring 14 to connect and fix the can cover 3 to the can body 2. In this example, the limiting groove and the through groove are vertically distributed. The two ends of the spring 27 are fixedly connected to the inner wall of the slider 25 and the limiting cylinder 23, respectively. The track groove is annular to adapt to the structure of the fixed post 20. The use of the spring 27 provides power for the movement of the locking block 26. In this example, a sealing ring is provided at the connection between the tank body 2 and the tank cover 3. The fixing plate 8 is rotatably connected to the support column 7 via a bearing. The controller is electrically connected to the pressure sensor 13 and the temperature sensor 11 to improve the sealing performance. In this example, the controller includes a temperature control device and a timing device to make timely adjustments based on the value measured by the temperature sensor 11. When the pressure inside the tank body 2 is greater than the required set value, the safety valve 12 opens to release air and simultaneously controls the heater 4 to reduce its heating power, adjusting the pressure inside the base 1. When the pressure inside the tank body 2 is less than the set value, the safety valve 12 closes and the heating power of the heater 4 is increased, adjusting the temperature and pressure inside the heater 4 to the required pressure and temperature values. The timing device can adjust the cooking time according to the actual situation, facilitating real-time monitoring of the pressure and temperature inside the tank body 2 and enabling timely adjustments.

[0024] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: When the tank body 2 and the tank cover 3 are connected and fixed, the limiting cylinder 23 can be held by hand and the push rod 24 can be pressed and pushed. The push rod 24 pushes the slider 25 and stretches the spring 27. At the same time, the slider 25 will drive the locking block 26 to slide in the groove, so that the locking block 26 slides out of the groove and into the track groove. Then, the limiting cylinder 23 can drive the gear ring 18 to rotate, so that the gear ring 18 drives the multiple gears 17 meshing with it to drive the threaded cylinder 16 to rotate. The threaded cylinder 16 will drive the threaded column. Cylinder 19 moves the fixed post 20 upward, causing it to move out of the limiting groove. Continuing to rotate the gear ring 18 allows the threaded post 19 and the fixed post 20 to rotate synchronously with the threaded cylinder 16. When the threaded cylinder 16 rotates to the point where it aligns with the through groove, the rotation of the gear ring 18 stops. At this point, cylinder 9 is activated to move the can cover 3 upward, allowing the fixed post 20 to move out of the through groove, completing the separation of the can body 2 and the can cover 3. The operation is simple and quick. When connecting and fixing the can body 2 and the can cover 3, the fixed post 20 is passed through the corresponding through groove on the can body 2. Move the fixed post 20 to the top of the connecting ring 14, and then repeat the above steps. After the locking block 26 moves into the rail groove, the toothed ring 18 can be driven to rotate by the limiting cylinder 23 and the handle, thereby driving the threaded post 19 and the fixed post 20 to rotate synchronously. When the fixed post 20 contacts the stop block 28, it will be blocked by the stop block 28. At this time, continue to rotate the toothed ring 18, and the threaded cylinder 16 will drive the threaded post 19 to move the fixed post 20 down, so that the fixed post 20 moves down into the limiting groove. Continue to rotate, and the fixed post 20 will move into the limiting groove. Pulling down the fixing ring 15 causes the can lid 3 to be tightly connected to the can body 2, thus completing the connection and fixation of the can body 2 and the can lid 3. Then, the force applied to the push rod 24 is released, causing the slider 25 to drive the locking block 26 to reset under the elastic force of the spring 27, so that the locking block 26 moves into the locking groove, thereby limiting the positioning cylinder 23 and restricting and fixing the toothed ring 18, preventing accidental contact that could cause it to rotate and thus affect the fixing effect between the can body 2 and the can lid 3. This makes it convenient and quick to install or remove the can body 2 and the can lid 3, making it more practical.

[0025] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that this invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that it can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of this invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered illustrative and non-limiting in all respects, and the scope of this invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description.
