[0027] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which the utility model belongs. The terms used in the specification of the utility model are only for the purpose of describing the specific embodiments and are not intended to limit the utility model.
[0028] Example 1
[0029] Referring to Figures 1-2 The present embodiment provides a cover plate structure, comprising: an upper cover 1, an electromagnetic heating device 4, a heat preservation plate 3 and an inner cover 2 are installed in the upper cover 1 from top to bottom, and the electromagnetic heating device 4 is located above the heat preservation plate 3 and is arranged close to the heat preservation plate 3.
[0030] The upper cover 1 is a semi-enclosed structure with an opening downward, the inner cover 2 is installed on the inner side of the bottom of the upper cover 1, and the circumferential side of the inner cover 2 is fixedly connected with the inner wall of the upper cover 1. The heat preservation plate 3 is installed in the upper cover 1 and is located above the inner cover 2, and the circumferential side of the heat preservation plate 3 is fixedly connected with the inner wall of the upper cover 1. The heat preservation plate 3 is used to preserve the temperature of the inner cover 2, so as to prevent the temperature of the inner cover 2 from being locally or integrally reduced to be obviously lower than 100℃ due to the heat dissipation structure.
[0031] The cover plate structure is generally used in kitchen appliances such as electric rice cookers. In the use state of the kitchen appliances such as electric rice cookers, the steam in the cooking cavity flows upward. The inner cover 2 is arranged opposite to the cooking cavity. The upward flowing steam encounters the inner cover 2. Once the temperature of the inner cover 2 is locally or integrally reduced to be obviously lower than 100℃ due to the heat dissipation structure to form a cold end, the steam encounters cold on the surface of the inner cover 2 to form condensed water. On the one hand, the condensed water will drip into the cooking cavity, affecting the taste of food and even causing the food to deteriorate. On the other hand, when the cover plate structure opens the cooking cavity, the condensed water will gather into a water flow and flow to any part of the kitchen appliance such as an electric rice cooker and the countertop. Not only does this increase the difficulty of cleaning, but also once the condensed water enters the interior of the kitchen appliance such as an electric rice cooker, it is easy to cause short circuit and damage the kitchen appliance such as an electric rice cooker.
[0032] Although the heat preservation plate 3 has a heat preservation effect, the effect is very small, and the inner cover 2 still forms a cold end. The problem of condensed water cannot be completely solved.
[0033] Therefore, the cover plate structure of the present embodiment is provided with an electromagnetic heating device 4. The electromagnetic heating device 4 is arranged in the upper cover 1, and the electromagnetic heating device 4 is located above the heat preservation plate 3 and is arranged close to the heat preservation plate 3. The electromagnetic heating device 4 uses the generated magnetic field to radiate the heat preservation plate 3 to heat the heat preservation plate 3, and then the heat preservation plate 3 heats the inner cover 2 through heat radiation, so as to keep the temperature of each part of the inner cover 2 at about 100℃, avoiding the local cold end of the inner cover 2. In this way, in the use state of the kitchen appliance such as an electric rice cooker, when the steam in the cooking cavity flows upward to the inner cover 2, no condensed water is generated, thereby ensuring the cleanliness of the cooking environment and the safe use of the electric rice cooker.
[0034] Moreover, the electromagnetic heating device 4 heats through the magnetic field. The magnetic field can diffuse to the surrounding environment, and it does not need to be in contact to heat, thereby improving the heating efficiency and uniformity.
[0035] The electromagnetic heating device 4 can be directly mounted on the heat preservation plate 3, or can be spaced apart from the heat preservation plate 3, and the heat preservation plate 3 is preferably made of a material with good heat preservation effect.
[0036] The inner cover 2 is a magnetic conductive structure corresponding to the electromagnetic heating device 4. The inner cover 2 can be made of a magnetic conductive metal material as a whole, or the part of the inner cover 2 facing the electromagnetic heating device 4 is made of a magnetic conductive metal material. In this way, the inner cover 2 is heated in two ways: first, the electromagnetic heating device 4 uses the generated magnetic field to radiate the heat preservation plate 3 to heat the heat preservation plate 3, and then the heat preservation plate 3 heats the inner cover 2 through heat radiation; second, the magnetic field generated by the electromagnetic heating device 4 directly radiates the inner cover 2 which is a magnetic conductive structure. In this way, the inner cover 2 is heated by two heating methods at the same time, which can better keep the temperature of the inner cover 2 at 100°C, and ensure that the temperature of each part of the inner cover 2 is uniform.
[0037] Specifically, the electromagnetic heating device 4 includes an electromagnetic heating coil group 41, which is uniformly distributed above the heat preservation plate 3 and the inner cover 2. The electromagnetic heating coil group 41 is formed by winding a coil on a support, and has a disc-shaped structure, so that the magnetic field generated by the electromagnetic heating coil group 41 can be uniformly diffused to the surrounding environment, thereby uniformly heating the heat preservation plate 3 and the inner cover 2.
[0038] The electromagnetic heating device 4 further includes a magnetic shielding cover 42, which is arranged above the electromagnetic heating coil group 41. The magnetic shielding cover 42 can block the magnetic field of the electromagnetic heating coil group 41 from radiating away from the heat preservation plate 3, so that the magnetic field of the electromagnetic heating coil group 41 is concentrated below the magnetic shielding cover 42, thereby improving the heating efficiency.
[0039] Furthermore, the electromagnetic heating device 4 further includes a magnetic strip group frame 43, which is wrapped and supported at the bottom of the electromagnetic heating coil group 41. The magnetic strip group frame 43 is formed by a plurality of magnetic strips diffusing outward along different directions from the same center, and is wrapped below the electromagnetic heating coil group 41, which can cooperate with the electromagnetic heating coil group 41 to generate a high-frequency magnetic field, thereby further improving the heating effect.
[0040] On the basis of the above structure, referring to Figures 1-3 The heat preservation plate 3, the top inner wall of the upper cover 1, and the inner cover 2 are all spaced apart to form a heating cavity 5 and a heated cavity 6, respectively. The center region of the heat preservation plate 3 in the heating cavity 5 is provided with a centrifugal fan 7, and the center region of the heat preservation plate 3 and the circumferential side are provided with air flow channels to realize the circulation of air in the heating cavity 5 and the heated cavity 6 by the driving of the centrifugal fan 7, and the electromagnetic heating device 4 is arranged in the heating cavity 5 and located at the circumferential side of the centrifugal fan 7.
[0041] The heating cavity 5, the heated cavity 6 and the centrifugal fan 7 are arranged so that when the centrifugal fan 7 rotates, the air in the heated cavity 6 can be sucked into the heating cavity 5, then spread to the periphery through the centrifugal structure and then return to the heated cavity 6. In this way, the inner cover 2 is heated in three ways: first, the electromagnetic heating device 4 uses the generated magnetic field to radiate the heat preservation plate 3 to heat the heat preservation plate 3, and then the heat preservation plate 3 heats the inner cover 2 through heat radiation; second, the magnetic field generated when the electromagnetic heating device 4 works directly radiates the inner cover 2 of the magnetic conductive structure. Third, the magnetic field generated when the electromagnetic heating device 4 works heats the air in the heating cavity 5 and part of the heated cavity 6, and then uses the centrifugal fan 7 to realize the circulation of the air in the heating cavity 5 and the heated cavity 6. Heat convection to uniformly heat the air in the heating cavity 5 and the heated cavity 6, and heat exchange between the air in the heated cavity 6 and the inner cover 2 to heat the inner cover 2. In this way, the three heating methods simultaneously heat the inner cover 2, which can better maintain the temperature of the inner cover 2 at 100℃, ensure that the temperature of each part of the inner cover 2 is uniform, and improve the heating efficiency.
[0042] It is worth noting that the electromagnetic heating coil group 41, the magnetic shield 42 and the magnetic strip group frame 43 are all located in the heating cavity 5 and surround the periphery of the centrifugal fan 7. The centrifugal fan 7 is arranged at a distance from the heat preservation plate 3, so as to ensure the smooth rotation of the centrifugal fan 7 and avoid damage to the electromagnetic heating coil group 41, the magnetic shield 42, the magnetic strip group frame 43 and the heat preservation plate 3 by the fan blades of the centrifugal fan 7.
[0043] For the air flow channel, the central area of the heat preservation plate 3 is uniformly and evenly spaced with a plurality of air suction ports 32, and the periphery of the heat preservation plate 3 is uniformly and evenly spaced with a plurality of air exhaust ports 33. The plurality of air suction ports 32 and the plurality of air exhaust ports 33 form an air flow channel. The air suction port 32 is used to uniformly and quickly suck the air in the heated cavity 6 into the heating cavity 5 when the centrifugal fan 7 rotates, and the air exhaust port 33 is used to uniformly and quickly return the air diffused to the periphery through the centrifugal structure into the heated cavity 6, so as to realize strong convection of the air in the heating cavity 5 and the heated cavity 6 through the air suction port 32 and the air exhaust port 33.
[0044] The rotation of the centrifugal fan 7 is driven by the motor 8. The upper cover 1 includes an outer cover 11 and a support cover 12. The support cover 12, the heat preservation plate 3 and the inner cover 2 are sequentially and spaced arranged in the outer cover 11 from top to bottom to form the heating cavity 5 between the support cover 12 and the heat preservation plate 3. The support cover 12 and the inner wall of the top of the outer cover 11 are spaced to form the accommodating cavity 9. The motor 8 is arranged in the accommodating cavity 9 and is mounted on the support cover 12 and connected with the centrifugal fan 7.
[0045] The support cover 12 is used to support and mount the motor 8, and a through hole 121 is formed through the support cover 12 for the output shaft of the motor 8 to rotate through, so that the output shaft of the motor 8 is connected to the centrifugal fan 7. In this way, the fan structure composed of the motor 8 and the centrifugal fan 7 can be stably mounted through the support cover 12.
[0046] In the embodiment, the support cover 12, the heat preservation plate 3 and the inner cover 2 are detachably connected to the outer cover 11 through buckles or other structures, so that the components can be individually replaced and cleaned. The heat preservation plate 3 is provided with a transparent area 31 corresponding to the centrifugal fan 7. The transparent area 31 can be provided on the heat preservation plate 3 or be a part of the heat preservation plate 3, so that the rotation of the centrifugal fan 7 can be observed through the transparent area 31 after the inner cover 2 is removed, and the centrifugal fan 7 is visualized, so that problems of the centrifugal fan 7 can be found and solved in time, thereby ensuring the smooth circulation of the hot convection between the heating cavity 5 and the heated cavity 6.

[0048] Referring to Figure 3 The embodiment provides an electric rice cooker, which comprises a cooker body 100, an inner pot 200 and a cover plate structure 300 according to any one of embodiments 1-3. The inner pot 200 is arranged in the cooker body 100, and the cover plate structure 300 is hingedly connected to the cooker body 100. The cover plate structure 300 can be closed on the cooker body 100 to form a cooking cavity between the cover plate structure 300 and the inner pot 200.
[0049] The outer cover 11 of the cover plate structure 300 is rotatably connected to the cooker body 100 through a hinge structure, so that the cover plate structure 300 can be closed on the cooker body 100 or the cooking cavity can be opened.
[0050] The cover plate structure 300 of embodiment 1 is assembled in the electric rice cooker. In the use state of the electric rice cooker, the inner cover 2 can be heated in three ways: first, the electromagnetic heating device 4 radiates the heat preservation plate 3 by using the generated magnetic field to heat the heat preservation plate 3, and then the heat preservation plate 3 heats the inner cover 2 by heat radiation; second, the magnetic field generated by the electromagnetic heating device 4 directly radiates the inner cover 2 of the magnetically conductive structure when the electromagnetic heating device 4 is working; third, the magnetic field generated by the electromagnetic heating device 4 heats the air in the heating cavity 5 and part of the heated cavity 6, and then the air in the heating cavity 5 and the heated cavity 6 is circulated by the centrifugal fan 7 to realize the hot convection, so that the air in the heating cavity 5 and the heated cavity 6 is uniformly heated, and the inner cover 2 is heated by heat exchange with the air in the heated cavity 6. The three heating methods simultaneously heat the inner cover 2, which can better maintain the temperature of the inner cover 2 at 100℃, ensure the uniform temperature of each part of the inner cover 2, and improve the heating efficiency. In this way, the cold end of the inner cover 2 can be avoided, and the steam in the cooking cavity will not condense when flowing upward to the inner cover 2, thereby ensuring the cleanliness of the cooking environment and the safe use of the electric rice cooker.
