Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] Embodiments of the present application relate to the technical field of kitchen appliances, and in particular to a cooking device. BACKGROUND

[0002] The cooking device with the steam function can include a steamer or a steam oven, etc. The steamer can steam food. The steam oven can steam and bake food, and the steam oven can deliver a certain amount of steam into the inner container when baking food to maintain the moisture of the food.

[0003] In related technologies, the cooking device with the steam function usually includes a water box, a water inlet pump, a steam generator and an inner container. The water box can store a certain amount of clean water. The water inlet pump delivers part of the water in the water box to the steam generator. The steam generator heats the water and converts it into steam. The steam generated by the steam generator is delivered into the inner container to cook the food in the inner container.

[0004] However, after cooking, the cooking device in related technologies usually directly draws the residual water in the steam generator back into the water box. The residual water usually contains impurities such as scale. In order to avoid the impurities such as scale from blocking the water inlet pump during the next cooking, the entire water box needs to be cleaned after each cooking. However, the volume of the water box is large, and the cleaning process is time-consuming and laborious. UTILITY MODEL CONTENT

[0005] Embodiments of the present application provide a cooking device, which can solve the technical problem that the water box in related cooking devices is not convenient to clean.

[0006] Embodiments of the present application provide a cooking device, which includes:

[0007] The box body is configured to form an accommodation cavity and a water box cavity;

[0011] The residual water box has a residual water cavity therein, and the residual water box is detachably connected with the clean water box.

[0012] The cooking device of the present application has the residual water box detachably connected with the clean water box. After the steaming is completed, the water box assembly can be drawn out of the water box cavity, and then the residual water box is detached from the clean water box, and only the residual water box is cleaned. Since the volume of the residual water box is reduced compared to the volume of the entire water box assembly, the cleaning of the residual water box is more time-saving and labor-saving than the cleaning of the entire water box assembly.

[0013] In some embodiments of the present application, the front part of the water box cavity is formed with a mounting opening, and the water box assembly is pullably arranged in the water box cavity through the mounting opening.

[0014] The side of the residual water box away from the mounting opening is configured with a notch part, and the residual water box is arranged in the notch part.

[0015] In this way, the residual water box is arranged in the notch part, so that the number of corners of the water box assembly combined by the residual water box and the clean water box is reduced, and the water box assembly is more regular.

[0016] In some embodiments of the present application, the clean water box comprises:

[0017] The first side wall;

[0018] The second side wall is oppositely arranged with part of the first side wall along the width direction of the box body;

[0019] The third side wall is farther away from the mounting opening than the second side wall, and is oppositely arranged with part of the first side wall along the width direction of the box body, and is closer to the first side wall than the second side wall;

[0020] The fourth side wall is respectively connected to the third side wall and the second side wall;

[0021] The third side wall and the fourth side wall enclose the notch part.

[0022] In this way, the third side wall and the fourth side wall enclose the notch part, and the residual water box is arranged in the notch part, so that the number of corners of the water box assembly combined by the residual water box and the clean water box is reduced, and the water box assembly is more regular.

[0023] In some embodiments of the present application, the side of the residual water box away from the third side wall is flush with the second side wall.

[0024] In this way, the side of the residual water box away from the third side wall can be flush with the second side wall, so as to reduce the number of corners of the water box assembly, and make the water box assembly more regular.

[0025] In some embodiments of the present application, the clean water box further comprises a fifth side wall, and the fifth side wall is respectively connected to the first side wall and the third side wall;

[0026] The side of the residual water box away from the fourth side wall is flush with the fifth side wall.

[0027] In this way, the side of the residual water box away from the fourth side wall can be flush with the fifth side wall, so as to reduce the number of corners of the water box assembly, and make the water box assembly more regular.

[0028] In some embodiments of the present application, the side wall of the clean water box is provided with a clamping structure, the side wall of the residual water box is provided with a matching structure, and the matching structure is clamped with the clamping structure.

[0029] In this way, the matching structure is clamped with the clamping structure, so that the excess water box and the clean water box are detachably connected.

[0030] In some embodiments of the present application, the clamping structure is inserted into the slot from top to bottom.

[0031] In this way, the matching structure is clamped with the clamping structure, so that the excess water box and the clean water box are detachably connected.

[0032] In some embodiments of the present application, the clean water box has a first interface, and the first interface is arranged on the side of the clean water box away from the mounting port.

[0033] The excess water box has a second interface, and the second interface is arranged on the side of the excess water box away from the mounting port.

[0034] In this way, after the water box assembly is inserted into the water box cavity from front to back, the first interface on the rear side of the water box assembly is connected with the first inlet of the water inlet pump, and the second interface is connected with the second outlet of the water return pump, so as to facilitate the communication between the clean water cavity and the first inlet, and the communication between the excess water cavity and the second outlet.

[0035] In some embodiments of the present application, a blocking piece is arranged in the clean water box, and the blocking piece occupies part of the size of the clean water cavity along the width direction of the box.

[0036] In this way, the blocking piece occupies part of the size of the clean water cavity along the width direction of the box, so that the water on both sides of the blocking piece along the depth direction of the box can flow to each other. The blocking piece can block part of the water flow that shakes along the depth direction of the box, so as to reduce the shaking amplitude of the water flow, thereby reducing the situation that water splashes out of the clean water box.

[0037] In some embodiments of the present application, the cooking device further comprises:

[0038] The steam generator has a water inlet and a gas outlet, and the gas outlet is communicated with the cooking cavity;

[0039] The water inlet pump is connected to the clean water box and the steam generator respectively; the water inlet pump has:

[0040] The first inlet is communicated with the clean water cavity;

[0041] The first outlet is communicated with the water inlet;

[0042] The water return pump is connected to the excess water box and the steam generator respectively; the water return pump has:

[0043] The second inlet is communicated with the water inlet;

[0044] The second outlet is communicated with the excess water cavity.

[0045] Thus, when the food in the cooking cavity needs to be steamed, the water inlet pump is started to work, the water in the clean water cavity flows from the first inlet to the inside of the water inlet pump, and from the first outlet to the water inlet of the steam generator, and then flows into the steam generator from the water inlet. The steam generator heats the water inside and converts it into steam, which is delivered to the cooking cavity from the outlet, thereby steaming the food in the cooking cavity. After the steaming process is completed, there will be some residual water in the steam generator. When the water return pump is started to work, the residual water in the steam generator flows back to the second inlet through the water inlet, and then flows from the second inlet to the inside of the water return pump, and from the second outlet of the water return pump to the residual water cavity. The water return pump can accelerate the flow rate of the residual water in the steam generator back to the residual water cavity, thereby accelerating the residual water recovery efficiency.

The clean water box is used to hold clean water for use in steaming. The residual water box is used to recover residual water. After steaming is completed, only the residual water box needs to be detached from the clean water box and cleaned. Since the volume of the residual water box is reduced compared to the volume of the entire water box assembly, the residual water box is more time-saving and labor-saving to clean compared to cleaning the entire water box assembly.

[0095] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be described clearly and completely in combination with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, not all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative labor are within the scope of protection of the present application.

[0096] It should be noted that the "front side" in the embodiments of the present application refers to the side facing the user during normal use of the cooking equipment. The "rear side" refers to the side opposite to the front side, i.e. the side away from the user during normal use of the cooking equipment.

[0097] The cooking equipment of the present application can be a steamer, a steam oven, or other cooking equipment with steaming function.

[0099] The cabinet 10 is configured with a receiving cavity 110 having a front opening.

[0100] Wherein, the negative direction of the depth direction Y of the box body 10 is "front", and the positive direction of the depth direction Y of the box body 10 is "back".

[0101] The inner container 20 is arranged in the accommodating cavity 110, and the inner container 20 has a cooking cavity 201 for placing food to be cooked. The front part of the cooking cavity 201 has a taking and placing opening, through which the food can be placed into the cooking cavity 201 or taken out of the cooking cavity 201.

[0102] In some possible implementation manners of the embodiments of the present application, referring to Figure 3 The box body 10 can also be configured to form a water box cavity 120, and the front part of the water box cavity 120 can form a mounting opening 121.

[0103] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 3 The front side of the box body 10 can have a box front wall 130, and the mounting opening 121 can be formed on the box front wall 130.

[0104] Referring to Figure 3 and Figure 4 The cooking device can also include a water box assembly 30, which is detachably arranged in the water box cavity 120, or in other words, the water box assembly 30 is pullably arranged in the water box cavity 120 through the mounting opening 121, so as to facilitate water filling into the water box assembly 30 or cleaning of the water box assembly 30.

[0105] Referring to Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 The water box assembly 30 can include a clean water box 310, which has a clean water cavity 301 for containing clean water for use in steaming of the cooking device.

[0106] Referring to Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 6 The water box assembly 30 can also include a residual water box 320, which has a residual water cavity 321 for recovering residual water in the steaming process.

[0107] In some possible implementation manners of the embodiments of the present application, referring to Figure 6 The residual water box 320 can include a second bottom plate 325, a second peripheral side wall 326, and a second top cover 327. The second peripheral side wall 326 is arranged around the edge of the second bottom plate 325, and the second peripheral side wall 326 and the second bottom plate 325 form the residual water cavity 321 with a top opening. The second top cover 327 is detachably arranged on the top of the second peripheral side wall 326 and closes the residual water cavity 321.

[0108] In some possible implementation manners of the embodiments of the present application, referring to Figure 5 The side of the clean water box 310 away from the installation opening 121 can be configured to have a notch portion 302.

[0109] The clean water box 310 can include a first bottom plate 314, a first peripheral sidewall 315 surrounding an edge of the first bottom plate 314, and a first top cover 316. The first peripheral sidewall 315 and the first bottom plate 314 enclose a clean water cavity 301 with a top opening. The first top cover 316 covers the top of the first peripheral sidewall 315 and seals the clean water cavity 301.

[0110] In some possible implementation manners of the embodiments of the present application, the first peripheral sidewall 315 can include a first sidewall 303. When the water box assembly 30 is inserted into the water box cavity 120, the first sidewall 303 can be opposite to one side of the cabinet 10 along the width direction X.

[0112] In some embodiments, the second sidewall 304 can be substantially parallel to the first sidewall 303.

[0113] It can be understood that in other embodiments, the second sidewall 304 can also be inclined at an angle relative to the first sidewall 303. For example, the distance between the second sidewall 304 and the first sidewall 303 along the width direction X of the cabinet 10 decreases from the end close to the installation opening 121 to the end away from the installation opening 121, so that the clean water box 310 can be pulled out from the installation opening 121.

[0114] The first peripheral sidewall 315 can further include a third sidewall 305, which is farther away from the installation opening 121 than the second sidewall 304. The third sidewall 305 is opposite to a portion of the first sidewall 303 along the width direction X of the cabinet 10, and the third sidewall 305 is closer to the first sidewall 303 than the second sidewall 304.

[0115] In some embodiments, the distance between the end of the third sidewall 305 close to the installation opening 121 and the installation opening 121 along the depth direction Y of the cabinet 10 can be greater than or equal to the distance between the end of the second sidewall 304 away from the installation opening 121 and the installation opening 121. In this way, the projection of the third sidewall 305 on the first sidewall 303 along the width direction X of the cabinet 10 does not overlap with the projection of the second sidewall 304 on the first sidewall 303 along the width direction X of the cabinet 10.

[0116] In some embodiments, the third side wall 305 can be planar, and the third side wall 305 can be substantially parallel to the first side wall 303 (see FIG. 3A).

[0117] In some embodiments, the third side wall 305 can be planar, and the third side wall 305 can be substantially parallel to the first side wall 303 (see FIG. 3A). Figure 5 ), or the third side wall 305 can be inclined relative to the first side wall 303.

[0118] It can be understood that in other embodiments, the third side wall 305 can also be curved, and the maximum distance between the third side wall 305 and the first side wall 303 along the width direction X of the box body 10 is less than the maximum distance between the second side wall 304 and the first side wall 303, so that the clean water box 310 can be pulled out from the installation opening 121.

[0119] The first peripheral side wall 315 can further include a fourth side wall 306, one end of the fourth side wall 306 being connected to the end of the second side wall 304 away from the installation opening 121, and the other end of the fourth side wall 306 being connected to the end of the third side wall 305 close to the installation opening 121.

[0120] The first peripheral side wall 315 can further include a fifth side wall 307, one end of the fifth side wall 307 being connected to the end of the first side wall 303 away from the installation opening 121, and the other end of the fifth side wall 307 being connected to the end of the third side wall 305 away from the installation opening 121.

[0121] The first peripheral side wall 315 can further include a sixth side wall 308, one end of the sixth side wall 308 being connected to the end of the first side wall 303 close to the taking and placing opening, and the other end of the sixth side wall 308 being connected to the end of the second side wall 304 close to the taking and placing opening.

[0122] The first side wall 303, the sixth side wall 308, the second side wall 304, the fourth side wall 306, the third side wall 305, and the fifth side wall 307 are sequentially connected end to end and form the first peripheral side wall 315.

[0123] The first bottom plate 314, the first side wall 303, the sixth side wall 308, the second side wall 304, the fourth side wall 306, the third side wall 305, and the fifth side wall 307 can be integrally provided, so as to facilitate the processing and manufacturing of the clean water box 310.

[0124] The third side wall 305 and the fourth side wall 306 enclose the notch portion 302. The excess water box 320 is arranged in the notch portion 302. The notch portion 302 has an opening on the side away from the mounting port 121, and the notch portion 302 has an opening on the side away from the first side wall 303, so as to facilitate the user to disassemble and assemble the excess water box 320.

[0125] The excess water box 320 is arranged in the notch portion 302, so that the number of corners of the water box assembly 30 formed by the combination of the excess water box 320 and the clean water box 310 is reduced, and the water box assembly 30 is more regular.

[0126] In some possible implementation manners of the embodiments of the present application, referring to Figure 7 The side of the excess water box 320 away from the third side wall 305 can be flush with the second side wall 304, so as to reduce the number of corners of the water box assembly 30, and the water box assembly 30 is more regular.

[0127] In some possible implementation manners of the embodiments of the present application, referring to Figure 7 The side of the excess water box 320 away from the fourth side wall 306 can be flush with the fifth side wall 307, so as to reduce the number of corners of the water box assembly 30, and the water box assembly 30 is more regular.

[0128] In some possible implementation manners of the embodiments of the present application, the clean water box 310 can be a substantially cuboid box. The notch portion 302 can be arranged on the side of the clean water box 310 away from the mounting port 121, and the notch portion 302 does not penetrate the side wall of the clean water box 310 along the width direction X of the cabinet 10.

[0129] The excess water box 320 is arranged in the notch portion 302, so that the number of corners of the water box assembly 30 formed by the combination of the excess water box 320 and the clean water box 310 is reduced, and the water box assembly 30 is more regular.

[0130] In some possible implementation manners of the embodiments of the present application, referring to Figure 5 and Figure 7 The clean water box 310 can be provided with a blocking piece 313, which can be a blocking plate or a blocking block. The blocking piece 313 occupies part of the size of the clean water cavity 301 along the width direction X of the cabinet 10, so that the water on both sides of the blocking piece 313 along the depth direction Y of the cabinet 10 can flow to each other. The blocking piece 313 can block part of the water flow that shakes along the depth direction Y of the cabinet 10, so as to reduce the shaking amplitude of the water flow, thereby reducing the situation that the water splashes out of the clean water box 310.

[0131] In some possible implementation manners of the embodiments of the present application, referring to Figure 5A water injection port 317 can be formed on the first top cover 316, and a sealing plug 318 can be detachably arranged in the water injection port 317. When water needs to be injected into the clean water cavity 301, the sealing plug 318 is removed from the water injection port 317. After the water injection is completed, the sealing plug 318 is blocked in the water injection port 317 to reduce the water in the clean water cavity 301 from spilling out of the water injection port 317.

[0132] The residual water box 320 is detachably connected with the clean water box 310. In this way, after the steaming is completed, the water box assembly 30 can be pulled out of the water box cavity 120, and then the residual water box 320 is detached from the clean water box 310, and only the residual water box 320 needs to be cleaned, without the need to clean the clean water box 310. Since the volume of the residual water box 320 is reduced compared with the volume of the entire water box assembly 30, compared with cleaning the entire water box assembly 30, the residual water box 320 is more time-saving and labor-saving when cleaning.

[0133] Since the clean water box 310 does not need to be cleaned, the water in the clean water box 310 can continue to be used, reducing water consumption and saving water resources.

[0134] The detachable connection manner of the residual water box 320 and the clean water box 310 is described below.

[0135] In some possible implementation manners of the embodiments of the present application, referring to Figure 5 and Figure 8 The side wall of the clean water box 310 can be provided with a clamping structure 309, or in other words, the first circumferential side arm corresponding to the notch portion 302 can be provided with the clamping structure 309.
