As used herein, the term "and / or" includes any and all combinations of one or more of the associated listed items.
[0040] The "first", "second" in the utility model do not represent the specific number and order, but only for the name of the distinction.
[0041] On the one hand, as Figure 1 And Figure 2 , Figure 3 As shown in the utility model embodiment, a bubble breaker assembly comprises:
[0042] The bubble breaker upper cover 1 is provided with an air outlet;
[0043] The bubble breaker lower cover 2 is detachably connected with the bubble breaker upper cover 1, and the bubble breaker lower cover 2 is provided with an air inlet;
[0044] The pressurizing unit 3 comprises a mounting cylinder 31 arranged at the air inlet and a movable float 32 concentrically arranged with the mounting cylinder 31, and the movable float 32 can move up and down along the center line relative to the mounting cylinder 31;
[0045] The micro-pressure ball 4;
[0046] The installation cylinder 31 is provided with an inner cylinder hole 301 and a ventilation flat groove 304 arranged along the circumference of the inner cylinder hole 301, the outer cylinder diameter of the movable float 32 is smaller than the diameter of the inner cylinder hole 301, the cylinder center is provided with an air outlet passage 302, part of the micro-pressure ball 4 penetrates into the inner cylinder hole 301 and can contact the upper top surface of the movable float 32.
[0047] When the above-mentioned bubble breaker assembly generates steam in the cooking cavity, the movable float 32 moves upward along the center line under the upward movement of the steam pressure, when the upper top surface of the movable float 32 contacts the bottom of the micro-pressure ball 4, the atmospheric pressure in the cooking cavity gradually increases, until when the atmospheric pressure value in the cooking cavity reaches a certain value (the atmospheric pressure exceeds the gravity of the micro-pressure ball 4), under the action of air pressure, the micro-pressure ball 4 will roll above the inner cylinder hole 301, achieving the effect of breaking bubbles and preventing overflow; in addition, when the atmospheric pressure in the cooking cavity is less than the gravity of the movable float 32 after cooking is completed, the movable float 32 moves downward to the initial position, the air in the cooking cavity is sequentially communicated with the outside atmosphere through the air outlet passage 302 and the ventilation flat groove 304, and the user only needs to use normal force to open the cover, thereby improving the use experience.
[0048] In one of the embodiments, the installation cylinder 31 includes a connecting sealing ring 311, an upper cylinder body 312 and a lower cylinder body 313; the connecting sealing ring 311 is provided with a ventilation hole in the center, and the outer edge is connected to the bubble breaker lower cover 2 through the buckle structure 5, the upper cylinder body 312 is arranged on the top surface of the connecting sealing ring 311, and the lower cylinder body 313 penetrates through the connecting sealing ring 311 and is detachably connected with the upper cylinder body 312. In this way, the installation cylinder 31 can be easily disassembled and installed through the buckle structure 5, and the residual liquid in the installation cylinder 31 can be easily cleaned.
[0049] In one of the embodiments, the top of the lower cylinder body 313 is provided with an external threaded end, and the outer cylinder diameter is larger than the diameter of the ventilation hole, the inner cylinder hole 301 is arranged in the lower cylinder body 313, and the inner cylinder hole 301 is provided with an inner convex edge 303 for limiting the falling position of the lower cylinder body 313; the cylinder cavity of the upper cylinder body 312 is sequentially provided with an internal threaded part and a gas guide convex edge from bottom to top, and the internal threaded part is threadedly connected with the external threaded end. Specifically, part of the micro-pressure ball 4 is arranged in the gas guide cylinder cavity formed by the gas guide convex edge. In this way, the connecting sealing ring 311, the upper cylinder body 312 and the lower cylinder body 313 can be easily disassembled through the threaded connection between the internal threaded part and the external threaded end, so that the residual liquid in the installation cylinder 31 can be easily cleaned.
[0050] In one embodiment, the movable float 32 includes a float body 321 and a float component 322 disposed on the float body 321. The float body 321 includes a locking end movably disposed at the center of the lower cylinder 313, an outer diameter portion for adapting to the inner convex edge 303, and a limiting end for limiting the position of the float component 322; the locking end adapts to the inner convex edge 303. Specifically, the float component 322 has a flat circular ring structure, which has a large steam area; the air outlet channel 302 is disposed at the center of the float body 321. Thus, the rising steam causes the float component 322 to move upward, driving the locking end to move downward within the inner cylinder hole 301. After the end face of the locking end touches the micro-pressure ball 4, the air outlet channel 302 is closed, and the atmospheric pressure value in the cooking cavity reaches a certain value and remains thereafter.
[0051] In one embodiment, the snap-fit structure 5 includes a V-shaped circular edge 51 disposed at the air inlet of the lower cover 2 of the bubble breaker, and a snap-fit groove 52 disposed on the outer edge of the connecting sealing ring 311, the snap-fit groove 52 being adapted to the V-shaped circular edge 51; the bottom of the connecting sealing ring 311 is provided with an elastic contact edge. Thus, the snap-fit structure 5 of the snap-fit groove 52 and the V-shaped circular edge 51 is stable and reliable, preventing steam leakage from the snap-fit gap.
[0052] In one embodiment, the bubble breaker cover 1 is provided with a bubble-breaking circular edge 11 that matches the air-guiding protrusion. Specifically, the bubble-breaking circular edge 11 is provided with a plurality of ventilating arc grooves spaced apart along the circumference.
[0053] In one embodiment, the top of the movable float 32 is circular, and the diameter of the micro-pressure ball 4 is larger than the diameter of the inner cylinder hole 301. Thus, the micro-pressure ball 4 can only partially enter the inner cylinder hole 301, ensuring that when the movable float 32 is in its initial position (i.e., when the lower surface of the locking end contacts the inner convex edge 303), the air inside the cooking cavity communicates with the outside atmosphere sequentially through the air outlet channel 302 and the ventilation groove 304.
[0054] On the other hand, such as Figure 4 As shown, a cover body in one embodiment of the present invention includes a cover shell 6 with a receiving cavity and a bubble breaker assembly 7; the bubble breaker assembly 7 is detachably disposed in the receiving cavity.
[0055] In one embodiment, the bubble breaker cover 1 has an outlet flange 12 extending from the cover surface, and the top of the cover housing 6 has a mounting groove 61 that matches the outlet flange 12. Specifically, a sealing ring is provided between the outlet flange 12 and the mounting groove 61. Thus, the mounting groove 61 matches the outlet flange 12, facilitating assembly; at the same time, the sealing ring prevents steam from entering the internal space of the cover housing 6.
[0056] On the other hand, such asFigure 5 As shown in the utility model one embodiment of a rice cooker, including the body 8, and cover body, the cover body rotation is connected at the top of the body 8.
[0057] The technical features of the above embodiments can be combined arbitrarily, and to make the description concise, all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are not described, however, as long as the combination of the technical features does not exist contradictory, it should be considered that the scope of the present application is recorded.
[0058] The above embodiments only express several implementation manners of the utility model, the description is more specific and detailed, but it should not be understood as the limitation of the scope of the utility model patent. It should be pointed out that for ordinary skilled in the art, without departing from the concept of the utility model, a number of variations and improvements can be made, which belong to the protection scope of the utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of the utility model patent should be subject to the appended claims.
