Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of household appliances, in particular to a kind of anti-overflow subassembly and cooking equipment. BACKGROUND

[0002] Many cooking equipment needs to heat more water into container when using, and food is heated and cooked by steaming, boiling, stewing, baking and other cooking methods. However, due to the addition of more water in the cooking equipment, it often causes water to overflow from the exhaust port of the cooking equipment during cooking, thereby polluting the outer surface of the cooking equipment and increasing the cleaning work of the cooking equipment. In addition, the liquid overflowing from the exhaust port of the cooking equipment may also flow to the connector of the electrical equipment, which has a high safety risk.

[0003] In related technologies, the anti-overflow subassembly is usually integrated at the exhaust port of the cooking equipment to reduce the overflow of the liquid overflow from the exhaust port. However, the anti-overflow subassembly integrated in the cooking equipment makes it very difficult to clean, and foreign matter is easily accumulated over a long period of time, which pollutes the food in the cooking equipment. SUMMARY

[0004] The utility model provides a kind of anti-overflow subassembly and cooking equipment for reducing the cleaning difficulty of anti-overflow subassembly.

[0005] The utility model provides an anti-overflow subassembly, comprising: a base having a receiving cavity, the receiving cavity is communicated with overflow inlet and air vent on both sides respectively; a sealing element connected to the base, the sealing element is used to form a seal between the base and the cooking utensil; and a suction member connected to the base, the suction member is used to be detachably adsorbed to the outer surface of the cooking utensil, so that the base is located on the outside of the cooking utensil, and the overflow inlet is communicated with the exhaust port of the cooking utensil.

[0006] In one embodiment, the anti-overflow subassembly is configured such that when the suction member is adsorbed to the outer surface of the cooking utensil, the base and the cooking utensil compress the sealing element in opposite directions, and the sealing element is compressed and sealed outside the cooking utensil.

[0007] In one embodiment, the base is connected with a plurality of suction members, and the suction members are uniformly arranged along the circumference of the base.

[0008] In one embodiment, the base is provided with a plug-in port; the suction member includes a plug-in head and a suction disc, the plug-in head is connected to the suction disc, and the plug-in head is detachably inserted into the plug-in port and clamped with the base.

[0009] In one embodiment, the suction member is located outside the receiving cavity.

[0010] In one embodiment, the base is provided with an annular groove, which is arranged around the entire circumference of the overflow inlet; and the sealing member comprises a first sealing ring, which is detachably inserted into the annular groove and connected to the base in a sealing manner.

[0011] In one embodiment, the vent is a tapered hole, and the diameter of the vent gradually decreases from top to bottom.

[0036] The utility model will be described further below with reference to the drawings.

[0037] Reference Figures 1 to 3As shown in the first aspect, the utility model provides a kind of anti-overflow assembly 100, it includes: base 110, suction accessory 120 and sealing element 130.Wherein, base 110 has accommodating cavity, and the two sides of accommodating cavity are communicated with overflow inlet 111 (visible Figure 5 And Figure 7 ) And air vent 112.

[0038] When using anti-overflow assembly 100, suction accessory 120 can be adsorbed on the outer surface of cooking utensil 200 (visible Figure 14 ).So that base 110 is located at the outside of cooking utensil 200, and overflow inlet 111 is communicated with the exhaust port of cooking utensil 200.Due to the heat is concentrated in cooking utensil 200 during cooking, so that the temperature in cooking utensil 200 is significantly higher than the temperature outside cooking utensil 200, i.e. the temperature at base 110 is lower than the temperature in cooking utensil 200.When the liquid in cooking utensil 200 overflows from the exhaust port, since base 110 is connected with sealing element 130, a seal is formed between base 110 and cooking utensil 200, and the overflow in cooking utensil 200 will flow to the overflow inlet 111 communicated with the exhaust port, and flow into the accommodating cavity to cool, to avoid the overflow to further boil, to achieve the effect of anti-overflow.

[0039] Compared with the anti-overflow structure previously arranged inside cooking utensil 200, the anti-overflow structure arranged outside cooking utensil 200 has a lower temperature, and the anti-overflow effect can be achieved by cooling, and the anti-overflow structure arranged inside cooking utensil 200 will not be affected, and more types of cooking utensil 200 can be adapted.

[0040] After cooking, since suction accessory 120 is detachably mounted on the outer surface of cooking utensil 200, suction accessory 120 can be detached from the outer surface of cooking utensil 200, so that base 110 is separated from cooking utensil 200.Compared with cleaning the anti-overflow assembly 100 integrated on the cooking assembly, the detached anti-overflow assembly 100 has a larger area exposed to the outside, and is easier to clean.

[0041] It should be further noted that, since the base 110 is arranged outside the cooking utensil 200 by adsorbing the suction accessory 120 on the outer surface of the cooking utensil 200, compared with other detachable connection methods such as bolt connection and clamping connection, the adsorption connection has relatively lower requirements for the installation environment (no special installation structure needs to be provided on the cooking utensil), that is, the anti-overflow assembly 100 of the present application can adapt to more types of cooking utensil 200, and does not need to be additionally modified.

[0042] Meanwhile, since the suction member 120 is adsorbed on the outer side of the cooking utensil 200, the anti-overflow assembly 100 does not occupy the internal space of the cooking utensil 200 when used, and has little effect on the cooking process. Moreover, it also avoids the components in the anti-overflow assembly 100 from falling into the food during the cooking process, and avoids the risk of accidentally eating the components in the anti-overflow assembly 100 during the process of eating the food.

[0043] In some implementations, the exhaust port of the cooking utensil 200 is arranged at the top of the cooking utensil 200, and the base 110 can be fixed above the cooking utensil 200 by adsorption, and the anti-overflow function is realized by the containing cavity of the base 110. In other implementations, if the exhaust port of the cooking utensil 200 is arranged at the side of the cooking utensil 200, the base 110 can also be arranged outside the cooking utensil 200 by adsorption of the suction member 120 on the outer surface of the cooking utensil 200, so as to realize the anti-overflow function.

[0044] In some implementations, the anti-overflow assembly is configured to compress the sealing member 130 in opposite directions with the cooking utensil when the suction member 120 is adsorbed on the outer surface of the cooking utensil, so as to compress the sealing member 130 tightly outside the cooking utensil to form a seal.

[0045] That is, the sealing member 130 is compressed tightly outside the cooking utensil by extruding the sealing member 130 to form a seal, so as to avoid the liquid overflowing from the cooking utensil from flowing out from the gap between the sealing member 130 and the cooking utensil.

[0046] Specifically, as shown in Figure 1 and Figure 3 In some implementations, the sealing member 130 is made of elastic material; the bottom surface of the suction member 120 is higher than the bottom surface of the sealing member 130, and the sealing member 130 is compressed tightly outside the cooking utensil 200 when the bottom surface of the suction member 120 is adsorbed on the cooking utensil 200.

[0047] That is, when the bottom surface of the suction member 120 is adsorbed and connected to the outer surface of the cooking utensil 200, the sealing member 130 originally protruding downward beyond the suction member 120 is extruded upward by the outer surface of the cooking utensil 200, so that the sealing member 130 made of elastic material is elastically deformed in the vertical direction, thereby improving the sealing force between the sealing member 130 and the cooking utensil 200. The sealing effect of the sealing member 130 is improved.

[0048] In some implementations, the suction cup 122 of the suction accessory 120 is also made of elastic material. When the suction cup 122 is attached to the cooking utensil 200, the inner wall that originally arches upward will be deformed to be flat under the extrusion force, so that the length of the suction cup 122 in the height direction is shortened by 3.2 mm. The sealing member 130 is 0.5 mm lower than the bottom surface of the suction accessory 120 that is not shortened. When the suction accessory 120 is compressed in the length direction, the sealing member 130 will be shortened by 3.2+0.5=3.7 mm under the upward extrusion of the outer surface of the cooking utensil 200, so that the cooking utensil 200 is more tightly attached to the outside of the cooking utensil 200, and the sealing force of the sealing member 130 is improved.

[0049] Referring to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , in some implementations, the base 110 is connected with multiple suction accessories 120, and the suction accessories 120 are uniformly arranged along the circumference of the base 110. Since the base 110 is connected with multiple suction accessories 120, compared with being attached to the cooking utensil 200 by a single suction accessory 120, the multiple suction accessories 120 can provide greater suction force, so that the anti-overflow assembly 100 is prevented from being separated from the cooking utensil 200.

[0050] At the same time, since the base 110 is connected with multiple suction accessories 120, when part of the suction accessories 120 are separated from the cooking utensil 200, another part of the suction accessories 120 that are attached to the cooking utensil 200 can still provide connection force for the base 110, so that the base 110 is prevented from being separated from the cooking utensil 200.

[0051] Moreover, since the suction accessories 120 are uniformly arranged along the circumference of the base 110, uniform suction force can be provided for the base 110. Referring to Figure 2 , Figure 4 and Figure 6 , the base 110 is connected with three suction accessories 120. In other implementations, the number of suction accessories 120 connected to the base 110 can be adjusted according to the type of the suction accessory 120 or according to the size of the base 110, such as four, five or six suction accessories 120 connected to the base 110.

[0052] Referring to Figure 6 and Figure 7As shown, in some implementations, the base 110 is provided with a plug-in interface 1141, the suction accessory 120 includes a plug-in head 121 and a suction disc 122, the plug-in head 121 is connected with the suction disc 122, and the plug-in head 121 is detachably plugged into the plug-in interface 1141 to be clamped with the base 110. That is, the suction accessory 120 is detachably connected with the base 110 in a clamping manner. When the suction force of the suction accessory 120 is insufficient, the suction force of the anti-spilling assembly 100 can be improved by installing a suction accessory 120 with stronger suction force on the base 110. When the suction accessory 120 is damaged, the service life of the anti-spilling assembly 100 can be extended by replacing the suction accessory 120. In some implementations, the aperture D1 of the plug-in interface 1141 is 8.3 mm, which is smaller than the maximum outer diameter 10.4 mm of the plug-in head 121 at the guide structure 1211. After the plug-in head 121 is plugged into the plug-in interface 1141, the plug-in head 121 is prevented from moving out of the plug-in interface 1141.

[0053] On the other hand, since the suction accessory 120 further includes the suction disc 122, that is, the suction accessory 120 is adsorbed to the outer surface of the cooking appliance 200 through the suction disc 122. Compared with magnetic adsorption, the structure of the suction disc 122 can be adsorbed to the cooking appliance 200 made of metal material, plastic material, and ceramic material. That is, compared with the magnetic adsorption structure, the suction accessory 120 using the suction disc 122 can be applied to more types of cooking appliances 200.

[0054] As shown in Figure 3 , Figure 7 , Figure 8 and Figure 10 , the outer diameter of the plug-in head 121 is smaller than that of the suction disc 122, and the plug-in head 121 is provided with a guide structure 1211 with a tapered slope at an end away from the suction disc 122. When the plug-in head 121 is plugged into the plug-in hole of the base 110, the small end of the guide structure 1211 can be first plugged into the plug-in interface 1141, and the plug-in head 121 is pushed upward so that the plug-in head 121 is plugged into the plug-in interface 1141.

[0055] As shown in Figure 8 , the plug-in head 121 is further provided with an annular limiting groove 1212. When the plug-in head 121 is plugged into the plug-in interface 1141 of the base 110, the base 110 extends into the annular limiting groove 1212, and the limiting groove 1212 achieves the axial limiting between the plug-in head 121 and the base 110.

[0056] As shown in Figure 8 and Figure 9As shown, in some embodiments, in order to enable the plug-in connector 121 to be easily inserted into the plug-in hole 1141, a hole is formed at the guide structure 1211 of the plug-in connector 121, so that the thickness of the guide structure 1211 is thinner, and the guide structure 1211 of the plug-in connector 121 can be inserted into the plug-in hole of the base 110 by extruding the plug-in connector 121 in the radial direction.

[0057] As shown in FIG. 1, the base 110 is provided with a receiving cavity 1101, and the plug-in connector 121 is inserted into the receiving cavity 1101. Figure 2 As shown in FIG. 1, the base 110 is provided with a receiving cavity 1101, and the plug-in connector 121 is inserted into the receiving cavity 1101. Figure 3 As shown, in some embodiments, the suction accessory 120 is located outside the receiving cavity. Since the suction accessory 120 is located outside the receiving cavity, when the overflow flows from the overflow inlet 111 into the receiving cavity, the suction accessory 120 located outside the receiving cavity will not be contaminated by the overflow. When the suction accessory 120 is separated from the cooking appliance 200, the user will not come into contact with the overflow, which is more friendly to the user.

[0058] Moreover, since the suction accessory 120 is located outside the receiving cavity, the overflow is prevented from contacting the suction accessory 120, which can prevent the suction surface of the suction accessory 120 from being easily slipped due to water stains, and improve the stability of the suction accessory 120.

[0059] As shown in FIG. 1, the base 110 is provided with a receiving cavity 1101, and the plug-in connector 121 is inserted into the receiving cavity 1101. Figure 6 As shown in FIG. 1, the base 110 is provided with a receiving cavity 1101, and the plug-in connector 121 is inserted into the receiving cavity 1101. Figure 7 As shown, in some embodiments, the base 110 includes a cylinder portion 113 and a ring portion 114, the receiving cavity is formed in the cylinder portion 113, the ring portion 114 extends along the circumference of the cylinder portion 113 and is connected to the side of the cylinder portion 113 away from the receiving cavity, and the plug-in hole 1141 is formed in the ring portion 114.

[0060] That is, the suction accessory 120 is inserted into the plug-in hole 1141 of the ring portion 114, so that the suction accessory 120 is located outside the receiving cavity and is clamped with the base 110. It can be understood that in other embodiments, a plurality of boss structures can also be provided on the outside of the cylinder portion 113, and the plug-in hole 1141 is formed in the boss structure for connecting the suction accessory 120.

[0061] In some embodiments, the base 110 can be provided as a cylindrical structure, and in other embodiments, the base 110 can also be provided as a prismatic cylindrical structure with a square through hole.

[0062] As shown in FIG. 1, the base 110 is provided with a receiving cavity 1101, and the plug-in connector 121 is inserted into the receiving cavity 1101. Figure 7 As shown, in some embodiments, the base 110 is provided with an annular groove 1131, and the annular groove 1131 is arranged around the entire circumference of the overflow inlet 111; the sealing member 130 includes a first sealing ring 131, and the first sealing ring 131 is detachably inserted into the annular groove 1131 and is sealingly connected with the base 110.

[0063] When the first sealing ring 131 is inserted into the annular groove 1131, the first sealing ring 131 will surround the overflow inlet 111 once along the extending direction of the annular groove 1131, so as to avoid the overflow from overflowing out of the annular groove 1131.

[0064] In some implementations, the thickness of the first sealing ring 131 is greater than the width of the annular groove 1131, and when the first sealing ring 131 is inserted into the annular groove 1131, the first sealing ring 131 is in interference fit with the annular groove 1131. Referring to Figure 13 As shown, in some implementations, the thickness T1 of the first sealing ring 131 is 2.5 mm, referring to Figure 7 As shown, the width B1 of the annular groove 1131 is 2.4 mm. It can be understood that when the first sealing ring 131 is inserted into the annular groove 1131, the first sealing ring 131 is compressed in the thickness direction, so that the first sealing ring 131 is tightly connected with the annular groove 1131, avoiding the leakage of the overflow from the gap between the sealing member 130 and the base 110. Of course, the above size settings can be adjusted according to actual conditions.

[0065] Referring to Figure 13 As shown, in some implementations, the sealing member 130 further comprises a second sealing ring 132 and a third sealing ring 133, the second sealing ring 132 is located inside the third sealing ring 133, and the second sealing ring 132 and the second sealing ring 132 are both used to press against the cooking utensil 200 to form a double-layer sealing structure.

[0066] That is, through the double-layer sealing structure formed by the sealing member 130 and the cooking utensil 200 at the second sealing ring 132 and the third sealing ring 133, the sealing ability of the sealing member 130 can be improved, and the gap between the sealing member 130 and the cooking utensil 200 can be avoided, reducing the risk of overflow from the gap between the sealing member 130 and the cooking utensil 200.

[0067] Referring to Figure 12 and Figure 13 As shown, in some implementations, the second sealing ring 132 and the third sealing ring 133 are connected to the first sealing ring 131 at the end away from the cooking utensil 200, that is, the sealing member 130 is a Y-shaped sealing ring. Compared with the O-shaped sealing ring, the contact area between the sealing member 130 of the Y-shaped sealing ring and the cooking utensil 200 is larger, and a groove-shaped structure for accommodating the O-shaped sealing ring does not need to be provided on the outer surface of the cooking utensil 200, so as to provide a stronger sealing force.

[0068] Referring to Figure 13As shown, in some implementations, the second sealing ring 132 is inclined radially inward away from the side of the first sealing ring 131, while the third sealing ring 133 is inclined radially outward away from the side of the first sealing ring 131. By inclining the second sealing ring 132 and the third sealing ring 133, the second sealing ring 132 will gradually bend radially inward and thus reduce the height of the second sealing ring 132 during the process of pressing the sealing member 130 downward. Similarly, the third sealing ring 133 will further bend radially outward and thus reduce the height of the third sealing ring 133.

[0069] That is, by pressing the sealing member 130 outwardly and inwardly radially with the two inclined sealing rings, the height of the sealing member 130 can be reduced when the sealing member 130 is in sealing connection with the cooking utensil 200. Compared with an O-shaped sealing ring whose axial dimension hardly changes when in sealing connection, the Y-shaped sealing ring provided by the present application can adapt to axial deformation, so as to ensure that the sealing member 130 can be attached to the surface of the cooking utensil 200 when the cooking utensil 200 has a complex surface. That is, the sealing member 130 provided by the present application can be adapted to more types of cooking utensils 200.

[0070] Referring to Figure 7 As shown, in some implementations, the vent 112 is a tapered hole, and the diameter of the vent 112 gradually decreases from top to bottom. That is, the upper end of the vent 112 has a larger diameter than the lower end of the vent 112, which can increase the volume at the vent 112 while keeping the bottom diameter unchanged, so as to have more space to accommodate more overflow when the cooking utensil 200 has a small volume. In addition, since the vent 112 is a tapered hole, compared with increasing the diameter of the vent 112 by a stepped hole, the diameter of the tapered hole changes more uniformly, and when the overflow at the vent 112 cools down to become liquid, the liquid can flow down along the tapered hole wall of the vent 112, avoiding the overflow remaining at the vent 112.

[0071] In some implementations, the base 110 and the sealing member 130 are made of food-grade materials. Since the base 110 and the sealing member 130 are made of food-grade materials, the overflow will not be contaminated. When the overflow flows back into the cooking utensil 200, since the overflow is not contaminated by the base 110 or the sealing member 130, the food in the cooking utensil 200 will not be contaminated, reducing the impact of the anti-overflow assembly 100 on food hygiene and safety.

[0072] In some implementations, the sealing ring is made of food-grade silicone material, which has certain elasticity and can adapt to various shapes of the cooking utensil 200, and has little pollution to the overflow, so as not to contaminate the food in the cooking utensil 200.

[0073] In some implementations, the inner diameter of the accommodation cavity is 66mm and the depth is 33mm, i.e. the volume of the accommodation cavity is about 112.9ml. The overflow condensate of 112.9ml can be received, and the anti-overflow capability is strong. In other implementations, the inner diameter or the depth of the accommodation cavity can be adjusted according to the anti-overflow requirement, so as to adjust the volume of the accommodation cavity. For example, the anti-overflow assembly 100 with a volume of 100ml, 150ml or 200ml is provided.

[0074] In some implementations, the inner diameter of the overflow inlet 111 is greater than the hole diameter of the exhaust port of the cooking utensil 200. During the installation of the anti-overflow assembly 100, the base 110 with the end of the overflow inlet 111 can be easily covered outside the exhaust port, and the positioning difficulty of the anti-overflow assembly 100 is reduced.

[0075] Referring to Figure 14 As shown, in a second aspect, the present application further provides a cooking device, which comprises the cooking utensil 200 and the anti-overflow assembly 100 described above. The cooking utensil 200 has an exhaust port, and the anti-overflow assembly 100 is installed at the exhaust port of the cooking utensil 200.

[0076] When the cooking device with the anti-overflow assembly 100 is used, the overflow condensate overflowing from the exhaust port of the cooking utensil 200 can be collected by the anti-overflow assembly 100, and the overflow condensate is prevented from flowing out to the electrical equipment to cause the risk of electricity use, so that the safety of electricity use is improved. Moreover, unlike the anti-overflow assembly 100 arranged in the cooking utensil 200, the anti-overflow assembly 100 located outside the cooking utensil 200 does not occupy the cooking space in the cooking utensil 200. In addition, since the anti-overflow assembly 100 is detachably installed outside the cooking utensil 200 through the suction accessory 120, the cleaning difficulty of the anti-overflow assembly 100 can be reduced by separating the suction accessory 120 from the cooking utensil 200.

[0077] It can be understood that the cooking utensil 200 can be an electric rice cooker, a steamer, a frying pan or other food processing utensil with a cover.

[0078] Although the present application has been described with reference to the preferred embodiments, various modifications can be made to the present application and equivalents thereof without departing from the scope of the present application. In particular, the technical features mentioned in each embodiment can be combined in any manner as long as there is no structural conflict. The present application is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed herein, but includes all technical solutions falling within the scope of the claims.
