Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of steam oven cleaning technology, and specifically relates to a universal steam oven cleaning device. Background Technology

[0002] A multi-functional steam oven is an advanced kitchen appliance. It typically has a box-like structure with a sealable cooking chamber. Its biggest feature is its versatility, perfectly combining steaming and baking. It can also achieve unique modes such as steaming and baking in combination. Whether it's steaming tender vegetables and delicious fish or baking golden and crispy meats and bread, it can do it all perfectly. In addition, it may also have auxiliary functions such as fermentation, defrosting, and drying. Whether a family kitchen wants to enrich its cooking options or a commercial catering establishment seeks high efficiency and versatility, a multi-functional steam oven is an ideal choice.

[0003] Currently, in the use of multi-functional steam ovens, the interior needs to be cleaned after each cooking task. However, the existing cleaning method is mainly manual cleaning. Due to the relatively small internal space of the multi-functional steam oven, cleaning is very inconvenient. Staff need to laboriously reach into the oven to carefully wipe every corner, which is not only time-consuming and laborious, but also makes it difficult to ensure thorough cleaning. At the same time, the existing manual cleaning method is also extremely wasteful of water resources. Usually, in order to clean the oven interior as much as possible, staff will continuously rinse with large amounts of water. Due to the inability to precisely control the water flow, much of the water simply rinses the surface of the stains without achieving effective cleaning and is directly lost. In addition, the complex internal structure of the oven makes it difficult for water to drain from some hidden corners, further increasing the unnecessary consumption of water resources. This not only does not conform to the current concept of energy conservation and environmental protection, but also causes operating costs to rise invisibly. Obviously, the existing multi-functional steam ovens lack a fast and convenient cleaning mechanism, which makes the overall use process cumbersome and inconvenient. Utility Model Content

[0004] In view of the problems mentioned in the background art, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a universal steam oven cleaning device to solve the problems of inconvenient water use, large water consumption, and long time required for cleaning universal steam ovens in the prior art.

[0005] The above-mentioned technical objective of this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution:

A second filter assembly is installed at the input of both the cleaning pump and the drain pump. The second filter assembly at the input of the cleaning pump is connected to the condensate valve and the small flow valve via hoses. The output of the drain pump is connected to the inside of the drain tank.

[0007] As a preferred technical solution, the bottom of the drainage tank is provided with a drainage port, the outer surface of the drainage port is provided with external threads, and a water gun valve is fixedly connected to the other side of the cleaning water inlet valve.

[0008] As a preferred technical solution, an exhaust pipe is fixedly installed on the top of the water storage pipe, and the top of the exhaust pipe penetrates the frame.

[0009] As a preferred technical solution, an inner water guide pipe is also fixedly installed on one side of the upper end of the water storage pipe, and both the end of the inner water guide pipe and the end of the cleaning water guide pipe are equipped with sealing joints.

[0010] As a preferred technical solution, the drainage tank is designed with a high and low slope, and a partition is fixedly installed on the upper part of the high side inside the drainage tank, while an NTC probe is installed in the low part inside the drainage tank.

[0011] As a preferred technical solution, the inlet of the drain outlet is also equipped with a front water tank sleeve, and the outlet of the drain box is connected to the interior of the cleaning box.

[0012] In summary, the present invention has the following main advantages:

[0013] First, in actual use, the device can select the cleaning mode according to the needs. If automatic cleaning is required, the water is filtered by the second filter component and discharged into the cleaning tank through the cleaning inlet valve.

Wastewater can be discharged into the drain tank through the inner chamber drain outlet and the front water tank water pipe, and then flow into the cleaning tank. It passes through the second filter component at the drain outlet of the cleaning tank, and then the cleaning pump pumps the filtered wastewater into the inner chamber for cleaning, realizing the recycling and reuse of water and reducing the need for secondary heating of filtered water to reduce energy consumption. The first filter component is used to improve the water quality at the inlet, reducing the number of cleaning cycles and the increase in energy consumption. Attached Figure Description
