[0028] An embodiment of the present application provides a cooking device for cooking food, which can be a steaming and baking integrated machine, a steaming oven, an oven, etc. The cooking device comprises a door assembly 100 as in any of the embodiments described below, and further comprises an inner container comprising a cooking cavity with an opening. The door assembly 100 covers the opening to prevent the hot steam in the cooking cavity from spreading to the outside of the cooking cavity when the door assembly covers the inner container.
[0029] Referring to Figure 1 , Figure 1 A structural schematic diagram of a door assembly 100 in an embodiment of the present application is shown. The door assembly 100 provided by an embodiment of the present application can be applied to a cooking device, and the door assembly 100 covers and shields the opening of the cooking cavity when the door assembly covers the inner container.
[0030] In combination with Figure 2 and Figure 3 shown, Figure 2 and Figure 3 An exploded structural schematic diagram of a door assembly 100 in an embodiment of the present application is shown. The door assembly 100 comprises an outer door 110, an inner door 120, a water tank 130 and a control assembly 140.
[0031] The outer door 110 serves as an external protective layer of the door assembly 100 and has good heat insulation performance, which can prevent the heat inside the cooking device from being lost to the outside, and can also prevent the user from directly contacting the high-temperature environment inside the cooking device to protect the user from high-temperature injury. For example, Figure 1As shown, the outer door 110 comprises an inner end face 111, which is arranged towards the direction of the inner container.
[0032] In one embodiment, the outer door 110 is made of glass, which provides good transparency, so that the cooking device looks more beautiful and modern.
[0033] The inner door 120 is in contact with the inner container, which helps to form a sealed environment of the cooking cavity to maintain the thermal efficiency and uniform heating of food during cooking. The inner door 120 is spaced apart from the outer door 110, and the spacing between the two can further enhance the heat insulation performance of the cooking device, reduce the loss of heat from the cooking area to the outside, improve energy efficiency, and also reduce the spread of sound generated by the cooking device during operation, providing better sound insulation effect. In one embodiment, the inner door 120 is made of glass, which is easy to clean and helps to maintain the hygiene of the interior of the cooking device.
[0034] As shown, Figure 1 The inner door 120 is located on the side of the outer door 110 close to the inner container. It can be understood that the inner door 120 is closer to the high-temperature cooking cavity than the outer door 110, so that the temperature of the inner door 120 is usually higher than that of the outer door 110. The projection direction of the inner door 120 in the spacing direction between the inner door 120 and the outer door 110 is the projection direction of the inner end face 111, so that the area of the outer door 110 is larger than that of the inner door 120, and the inner door 120 is completely inside the outer door 110, so as to avoid the inner door 120 protruding from the outer door 110 and enabling the user to directly touch the inner door 120, thereby improving the safety of use.
[0035] As shown, Figures 1 to 3 In some embodiments, the inner door 120 and the outer door 110 are both provided with windows, and high-transparency materials can be arranged in the windows to enable the user to observe the cooking state of the food without opening the door body.
[0036] As shown, Figure 1 The water tank 130 is connected to the inner end face 111. Compared with the prior art in which the water tank 130 is located above or below the inner container, the water tank 130 is integrated into the door body assembly 100, so that the space of the inner container and the cavity can be expanded upward and downward under the same volume of the cooking device, thereby increasing the proportion of the cooking cavity in the cooking device and improving the space utilization rate of the cooking device.
[0037] As shown, Figure 1 and Figure 2 The projection of the water tank 130 in the projection direction is located inside the inner end face 111 and adjacent to the projection of the inner door 120 without overlapping, so as to avoid the water tank 130 and the inner door 120 overlapping, which increases the thickness of the door body assembly 100 and causes the weight of the door body assembly 100 to increase, thereby reducing the user experience.
[0038] AsFigure 2 and Figure 3 As shown in FIG. 1, the water tank 130 comprises a connecting surface 131 which is attached to the inner end surface 111, and the connecting surface 131 is concavely provided with a placing groove 132. Figure 4 As shown in FIG. 1, the control assembly 140 is located in the placing groove 132, so that the water tank 130 is partially located on the side of the control assembly 140 facing the inner container, so that the water tank 130 can be isolated between the control assembly 140 and the cooking cavity, so as to absorb the high temperature of the cooking cavity through the water tank 130 and the water in the water tank 130, to avoid the influence of the heat of the cooking cavity on the normal operation of the control assembly 140. Moreover, compared with the prior art that the control assembly 140 is arranged above the inner container, the control assembly 140 is integrated in the door body, so that the space of the inner container and the cavity can be expanded upward under the same volume of the cooking device, thereby increasing the proportion of the cooking cavity in the cooking device, thereby improving the space utilization rate of the cooking device.
[0039] As shown in FIG. 1, the water tank 130 comprises a connecting surface 131 which is attached to the inner end surface 111, and the connecting surface 131 is concavely provided with a placing groove 132.

[0040] In one embodiment, when the door body assembly 100 covers the inner container, the water tank 130 and the inner door 120 jointly cover and seal the opening, so that the inner container can be expanded to the opening of the cooking cavity, which is less than the total area of the water tank 130 and the inner door 120.
[0041] As shown in FIG. 1, the water tank 130 comprises a connecting surface 131 which is attached to the inner end surface 111, and the connecting surface 131 is concavely provided with a placing groove 132. Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown in FIG. 1, the water tank 130 comprises a connecting surface 131 which is attached to the inner end surface 111, and the connecting surface 131 is concavely provided with a placing groove 132.
[0042] As shown in FIG. 1, the water tank 130 comprises a connecting surface 131 which is attached to the inner end surface 111, and the connecting surface 131 is concavely provided with a placing groove 132. Figure 3 As shown in FIG. 1, the water tank 130 comprises a connecting surface 131 which is attached to the inner end surface 111, and the connecting surface 131 is concavely provided with a placing groove 132.
[0043] As Figure 3 shown, in one embodiment, the placing groove 132 is opened at the bottom end edge of the connecting surface 131, so that the placing groove 132 has a bottom end opening and a front end opening towards the inner end surface 111, to facilitate the installation of the water tank 130 and the control assembly 140.
[0044] In one embodiment, the control assembly 140 is bonded to the inner end surface 111 to be fixedly connected to the outer door 110, and in other embodiments, the control assembly 140 can also be connected to the inner end surface 111 in other connection manners, such as buckling, etc. In other embodiments, the control assembly 140 can also be embedded in the placing groove 132 and supported by the supporting surface 160, to realize the position fixation of the control assembly 140.
[0045] The door body assembly 100 in the above scheme integrates the water tank 130 and the control assembly 140 in the door body assembly 100, so that the space of the inner container and the cavity can be expanded up and down under the same volume of the cooking equipment, thereby increasing the proportion of the cooking cavity in the cooking equipment, and improving the space utilization rate of the cooking equipment; and by setting the control assembly 140 in the placing groove 132 recessed in the water tank 130, the water tank 130 can be isolated between the control assembly 140 and the cooking cavity, to absorb the high temperature of the cooking cavity by the water tank 130 and the water in the water tank 130, to avoid the influence of the heat of the cooking cavity on the normal operation of the control assembly 140.
[0046] 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 as the scope of the present application.
[0047] The above embodiments only express several implementation manners of the present application, and the description is more specific and detailed, but it should not be understood as the limitation of the patent application scope. It should be noted that for ordinary skilled in the art, without departing from the concept of the present application, several modifications and improvements can be made, which all belong to the protection scope of the present application.
