Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of steam oven cooking machine technology, and in particular to an inner pot component and a steam oven cooking machine. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, kitchen appliances typically use inner pot side ribs or side supports to house items (such as baking trays and racks). This structure requires either molding the inner pot or fixing the side supports to it. Molding the inner pot necessitates a reasonable and reliable gap between the inner pot and the accessories; otherwise, items may fall or become stuck. Side supports, on the other hand, are fixed to the inner pot with nuts, significantly reducing its effective volume. Furthermore, both of these methods result in a fixed shelf height. While this may meet users' personalized needs for cooking height customization, it can negatively impact the quality of food preparation and the overall cooking experience. Utility Model Content

[0003] Since the fixed position of the food placement in existing steam ovens cannot meet the user's need to adjust the height of the food placement in real time, it is necessary to provide an inner cavity component and a steam oven.

[0004] An inner liner assembly, comprising:

[0005] The inner liner body has mounting holes on its rear wall;

[0006] The transmission assembly includes a drive shaft and a driven shaft arranged vertically at intervals and rotatably mounted on the inner sidewall of the inner liner body, and a lifting belt sleeved on the drive shaft and the driven shaft, wherein the drive shaft is sealed through the mounting hole;

[0007] Support members are fixedly connected to the lifting belt; and

[0008] A drive unit is located outside the inner liner body and is driven to the drive shaft to drive the drive shaft to rotate the lifting belt.

[0009] This design, eliminating the need to open the door, facilitates user adjustments and enriches the steaming and baking modes. Users can choose to lower the placement piece closer to the bottom heat source to heat the bottom of the food, or raise it to the top to heat the top of the food. Furthermore, the drive shaft seal penetrating the rear wall of the inner liner improves its airtightness, preventing steam leakage. The inner sidewalls of the inner liner do not require molding to form side ribs, thus enhancing the structural strength of the inner liner.

[0010] In one embodiment, the drive shaft includes a first shaft body and a drive roller fixedly sleeved on the first shaft body, the driven shaft includes a second shaft body and a driven roller fixedly sleeved on the second shaft body, and the lifting belt is sleeved on the drive roller and the driven roller.

[0011] In this way, by sleeving the roller on the shaft, the diameters of the first shaft body and the second shaft body can be reduced while meeting the installation of the lifting belt, thereby reducing the diameter of the mounting hole, facilitating further improvement of the air tightness of the liner body, and reducing steam leakage.

[0012] In one of the embodiments, the driving roller comprises a first fixed part fixed to the first shaft body and two first stop parts located at both ends of the first fixed part, and the diameter of the first stop part is greater than that of the first fixed part.

[0013] The driven roller comprises a second fixed part fixed to the second shaft body and two second stop parts located at both ends of the second fixed part, and the diameter of the second stop part is greater than that of the second fixed part.

[0014] In this way, the accidental slipping of the lifting belt from the roller is effectively avoided, and the stable rotation of the lifting belt is ensured.

[0015] In one of the embodiments, the lifting belt, the driving roller and the driven roller are arranged in groups and at least two groups are arranged in the horizontal direction.

[0016] In this way, by arranging at least two supporting points at the bottom of one side of the storage object, the position stability of the storage object during lifting is increased, and the storage object is prevented from shaking and falling.

[0017] In one of the embodiments, the liner body comprises a liner shell providing the mounting hole and a plurality of supporting seats detachably mounted on the liner shell and provided with insertion holes, the driving shaft and the driven shaft correspond to at least two supporting seats respectively, and the driving shaft and the driven shaft are rotatably inserted into the insertion holes of the supporting seats.

[0018] In this way, the transmission assembly is convenient to disassemble and assemble, the supporting member can be independently produced, the production precision is controlled, and the user who needs cleaning can also clean independently.

[0019] In one of the embodiments, the number of the supporting members is at least two, and the plurality of supporting members are arranged in the vertical direction.

[0020] In this way, the liner assembly can realize the simultaneous lifting of at least two storage objects, and meets the needs of multi-storage object steaming and baking.

[0021] In one of the embodiments, the supporting member protrudes outward from the lifting belt.

[0022] In this way, the device is convenient to disassemble, and the support does not limit the rotation of the lifting belt, avoiding the risk of jamming between the lifting belt and the driving roller and the driven roller.

[0023] In one of the embodiments, the distance between the lifting belt and the inner side wall of the inner container body is greater than the protruding length of the support.

[0024] In this way, the vertical movement range of a single placed object is expanded, and the support can enter between the lifting belt and the inner container side wall along with the lifting belt, which is conducive to flexibly adjusting the number of placed objects that can be supported by the inner container assembly.

[0025] In one of the embodiments, the lifting belt is a steel piece.

[0026] In this way, the steel piece is not prone to aging and deformation within the steaming and baking temperature range of the steaming and baking oven, which can improve the durability and structural strength of the lifting belt.

[0027] A steaming and baking cooking machine, characterized in that it comprises:

[0028] The inner container assembly as described above; and

[0029] A placed object, which is placed on the support of the inner container assembly.

[0030] In this way, the user can conveniently adjust the height of the placed object in real time during the steaming and baking process, thereby fully cooking the food material, which is conducive to improving the cooking quality, designing various cooking modes, and improving the user's cooking experience.
