The electromagnetic force generated by the energized magnetic attraction structure 6 applies a horizontal outward force to the limiting elastic device of the limiting assembly 402 corresponding to the material bin 40, so that the limiting elastic device moves outward to release the flap 401 of the corresponding material bin 40, open the bottom end of the material bin, and deform the spring of the limiting elastic device. The food materials in the material bin will fall from the bottom of the material bin into the food material passage under the action of gravity, as shown in Figure 7 ;

[0117] When any material bin 40 is aligned with the food material passage, the discharging partition plate is away from the entrance of the food material passage to open the entrance of the food material passage.

[0118] When no material bin 40 is aligned with the food material passage, the discharging partition plate is moved to the entrance of the food material passage to close the entrance of the food material passage, so that the spatter of steam and moisture during the cooking process can be prevented, which is safer and more sanitary.
