Thus, the appearances of the phrase "in one embodiment" or "in some embodiments" in various places throughout this specification are not necessarily all referring to the same embodiment. Furthermore, the particular features, structures, or characteristics can be combined in any suitable manner in one or more embodiments.
[0029] Referring to Figures 1 to 5 The application provides a cooking appliance, comprising a shell 10, a heating assembly 1 and a control assembly 2 are arranged in the shell 10, the heating assembly 1 and the control assembly 2 are respectively fixed on the two ends of the shell 10 which are far away from each other, and the installation cavities corresponding to the heating assembly 1 and the control assembly 2 are communicated with each other in the shell 10, and the shell 10 is provided with a heat dissipation structure 3 in the region corresponding to the installation cavities of the heating assembly 1 and / or the control assembly 2.
[0030] In the application, the heating assembly 1 and the control assembly 2 are respectively fixed on the two ends of the shell 10 which are far away from each other, which means that the heating assembly 1 and the control assembly 2 are not arranged in a stack, and there is a space between them, and they are respectively located at the two ends of the shell 10 in the length direction.
[0031] In the application, referring to Figures 1 to 5 The shell 10 plays a crucial role in the cooking appliance, which is not only the bottom structure of the cooking appliance, but also the key part to ensure the stability and function realization of the equipment. The shell 10 provides a solid foundation for supporting various components inside the equipment, especially the heating assembly 1 and the control assembly 2. The heating assembly 1 and the control assembly 2 are fixed on the opposite sides of the shell 10 in the horizontal direction, which avoids the stacking of the heating assembly 1 and the control assembly 2 and is beneficial to air circulation.
[0032] Referring to Figure 4 The heating assembly 1 is an important component in the cooking appliance for generating heat, which is usually used for heating and cooking food. The heating assembly 1 can be a direct heating device or an electromagnetic induction heating device. The direct heating device can be, for example, a heating wire, a heating rod and a heating ring, etc. The electromagnetic induction heating device can be, for example, an electromagnetic coil.
[0033] The control assembly 2 is an indispensable key component in the cooking appliance, mainly used for managing and regulating the operation of electric devices such as the heating assembly 1. The control assembly 2 contains a temperature controller, a time controller, and a regulating switch, etc. The temperature controller can monitor and adjust the internal temperature in real time to ensure that the food is cooked at the optimal temperature, avoiding overheating or deficiency. The time controller is responsible for setting the cooking time to ensure that the heating process is completed within the predetermined time, improving the cooking efficiency. In addition, the regulating switch is used to select different heating modes or intensities, allowing users to flexibly adjust according to the cooking needs. Through the cooperation of these elements, the cooking appliance can achieve precise and intelligent operation, providing users with more convenient and efficient cooking experience. The control assembly 2 of the utility model can include the whole machine control assembly 2 corresponding to the cooking appliance and / or the control assembly 2 of part components such as the heating assembly 1.
[0034] The heat dissipation structure 3 is an important component for heat dissipation in the cooking appliance. The heat dissipation structure 3 cools down the heating assembly 1 and the control assembly 2. The heat dissipation structure 3 can be a heat sink that can accelerate heat dissipation by increasing the surface area. It can also be a heat pipe that is used to quickly conduct heat and enhance the heat dissipation effect. Or it can be a fan that is responsible for air circulation to further promote the heat dissipation efficiency and quickly remove heat. The heat dissipation structure 3 can also be a combination of heat sinks, heat pipes, and fans. Through the synergistic effect of these elements, the heat dissipation structure 3 can achieve efficient heat dissipation, which is not limited in detail.
[0035] In this embodiment, the installation cavities of the heating assembly 1 and the control assembly 2 are in communication with each other, which helps to circulate air, reduces heat accumulation, avoids local overheating, and simultaneously cools down the two installation cavities through the two heat dissipation structures 3, achieving high heat dissipation efficiency.
[0036] Further, referring to Figures 3 to 4 , a heat dissipation fan 41 is provided between the control assembly 2 and the corresponding heat dissipation structure 3, and the airflow blown by the heat dissipation fan 41 is directed towards the control assembly 2. In this embodiment, the heat dissipation fan 41 is arranged between the control assembly 2 and the corresponding heat dissipation structure 3, and blows air towards the control assembly 2 through the heat dissipation fan 41, which can quickly remove the heat generated by the control assembly 2, thereby avoiding the accumulation of heat inside the control assembly 2. The fixing method of the housing 10 and the heat dissipation fan 41 can be one or more of screwing, bonding, and riveting, which is not limited in detail.
[0037] Further, the shell 10 is provided with a first heat dissipation structure corresponding to the control assembly 2, and a second heat dissipation structure corresponding to the heat generating assembly 1, and the heat dissipation fan 41 forms an air flow sequentially flowing through the first heat dissipation structure, the control assembly 2, the heat generating assembly 1 and the second heat dissipation structure. In this embodiment, the heat dissipation fan 41 introduces air flow from the first heat dissipation structure, and after the air flow passes through the first heat dissipation structure, part of the air flow blows to the control assembly 2 to dissipate heat of the control assembly 2, and the other part of the air flow sequentially blows to the heat generating assembly 1 and the second heat dissipation structure. This design makes the air flow blown by the heat dissipation fan 41 not only directly cool the control assembly 2 and the heat generating assembly 1, but also promotes the air circulation in the installation cavity, so that the heat can form a good circulation among the control assembly 2, the heat dissipation fan 41, the first heat dissipation structure and the second heat dissipation structure, further improving the heat dissipation efficiency. Specifically, the installation cavity is provided with a wind guide structure for guiding the air flow blown by the heat dissipation fan to sequentially flow through the first heat dissipation structure, the control assembly 2, the heat generating assembly 1 and the second heat dissipation structure.
[0038] In an embodiment, referring to Figure 3 With Figure 4 , the heat dissipation structure 3 includes a plurality of heat dissipation mesh holes 31 opened on the shell 10. In this embodiment, the heat dissipation structure 3 is used for air flow to exchange heat, when the control assembly 2 and the heat generating assembly 1 generate heat, hot air can quickly exhaust through these heat dissipation mesh holes 31, and external air flows in through the heat dissipation mesh holes 31, forming an effective convection heat dissipation mechanism. This rapid exchange of heat can effectively reduce the temperature of the control assembly 2 and the heat generating assembly 1, and improve the heat dissipation efficiency. Specifically, the heat dissipation mesh holes 31 below the second fixing seat 5 are arranged according to the shape of the heat generating element and correspondingly arranged with the heat generating element. This design makes the heat dissipation mesh holes 31 can more evenly dissipate heat from the heat generating element, thereby avoiding the situation of local overheating. And the air flow channel formed by the heat dissipation mesh holes 31 around the heat generating element makes the cold air quickly cover the entire heating surface, improving the heat exchange rate, which not only promotes the rapid exhaust of heat, but also ensures that the external cold air can flow uniformly in every corner, thereby forming a good convection effect.
[0039] In another embodiment, referring to Figure 3 With Figure 4, the heat dissipation structure 3 includes a groove 32 provided on the bottom surface of the shell 10, and the bottom surface of the groove 32 is provided with heat dissipation holes 33. In this embodiment, the design of the heat dissipation holes 33 allows air to form a natural air flow channel at the bottom of the shell 10, promoting air flow, thereby enhancing the heat dissipation effect of the device, avoiding heat accumulation, and improving heat dissipation efficiency. The groove 32 provides additional space to accommodate air, allowing more cold air to enter, further promoting convective heat dissipation.
[0040] In other embodiments, the heat dissipation structure 3 can be a heat dissipation fin, and can also be a liquid cooling component, which is not limited here.
[0041] Further, referring to Figure 4 , the bottom surface of the shell 10 is provided with support feet 9. In this embodiment, on the one hand, the design of the support feet 9 can support the shell 10, forming a space that is conducive to air flow, allowing air to flow in from the heat dissipation mesh 31 and the heat dissipation holes 33, thereby effectively promoting heat dissipation; on the other hand, the support feet 9 can provide stable support to ensure the balance and safety of the device during use, and can effectively reduce the direct contact of the device with the ground, preventing moisture and dirt from affecting the shell 10, thereby prolonging the service life of the device. Specifically, four support feet 9 are provided, and the four support feet 9 are arranged at the four corners of the bottom surface of the shell 10.
[0042] Further, referring to Figures 2 to 4, the cooking utensil further comprises a first fixing seat 4 for fixing the control assembly 2 and a second fixing seat 5 for fixing the heating assembly 1, the first fixing seat 4 and the second fixing seat 5 are respectively provided with a first passage 6 in communication with each other, and the first fixing seat 4 and the second fixing seat 5 are respectively provided with a second passage 7 in communication with the first passage 6 at a side close to the shell 10, and the heat dissipation structure 3 is provided corresponding to the opening of the second passage 7. In the embodiment, through the design of the first passage 6 and the second passage 7, a good heat conduction channel can be formed, so that the heat of the heating assembly 1 and the control assembly 2 can be more efficiently transferred to the heat dissipation structure 3, reducing the accumulation of heat inside the device. Specifically, the second fixing seat 5 partially abuts above the first fixing seat 4 to reduce the occupied space and increase the stability of the first fixing seat 4 and the second fixing seat 5, the first fixing seat 4 and the second fixing seat 5 are respectively provided with a first fixing cavity and a second fixing cavity for fixing the control assembly 2 and the heating assembly 1, the first fixing seat 4 is provided with a first through hole in communication with the first fixing cavity at a side close to the second fixing seat 5, the second fixing seat 5 is provided with a second through hole in communication with the second fixing cavity at a side close to the first fixing seat 4, the first through hole and the second through hole are in communication, so that the two fixing cavities are in communication to form the first passage 6, and the bottom of the first fixing seat 4 and the bottom of the second fixing seat 5 are throughly provided to form the second passage 7.
[0043] It should be noted that the fixing mode of the heating assembly 1 and the first fixing seat 4, and the fixing mode of the control assembly 2 and the second fixing seat 5 can be clamping, screwing or bonding, which is not limited in particular.
[0044] Further, referring to Figures 2 to 4 , the first fixing seat 4 is provided with a mounting groove 42 at a side close to the second fixing seat 5, the control assembly 2 is mounted in the mounting groove 42, and the control assembly 2 is located above the heat dissipation fan 41. In the embodiment, the control assembly 2 is vertically mounted in the mounting groove 42, and by vertically mounting the control assembly 2, the size of the control assembly 2 in the horizontal direction can be reduced, thereby reducing the occupied space of the control assembly 2 in the second passage 7, so that the cooking utensil occupies less space in the horizontal direction. The control assembly 2 is located above the heat dissipation fan 41, and the heat dissipation fan 41 directly blows air on the control assembly 2, which can effectively reduce the temperature of the control assembly 2 and prevent it from affecting the performance due to overheating. In addition, the control assembly 2 is vertically placed and faces the heating assembly 1, which facilitates wiring between the control assembly 2 and the heating assembly 1 and other electrical devices.
[0045] Further, referring to Figure 2 andFigure 3 The shell 10 is internally provided with a wire reel 8, which is located on the side of the first fixing seat 4 away from the second fixing seat 5. In the embodiment, the wire reel 8 can effectively wind and store the electric wires in order, avoid the electric wires from being scattered, and reduce the internal disorder caused by winding or kinking and affecting heat dissipation. The electric wires are stored on the wire reel 8, and the staff can quickly find the electric wires that need to be checked or replaced, thereby facilitating maintenance and repair. The wire reel 8 is arranged on one side of the first fixing seat 4 and close to the control assembly 2. This design facilitates the integration of the electric connection wires of the control assembly 2 and the electric appliances such as the heat generating assembly 1 on the wire reel 8, can effectively reduce the length of the electric connection wires, thereby reducing the complexity and difficulty of wiring, and making the overall design more simple.
[0046] Further, referring to Figure 1 and Figure 5 The cooking utensil further comprises a storage bin assembly 20, a pot body assembly 30, and a water tank assembly 40. The storage bin assembly 20 is arranged in the shell 10. The pot body assembly 30 is arranged in the clamping opening formed by the shell 10.
