[0002] The steam stew pot heats stew cup and food material in stew cup through water vapor, in order to guarantee the cooking speed, the temperature in the cooking cavity needs to be raised quickly and keep stable in the whole cooking process, that is, need to stably supply water to the heating assembly and continuously produce steam.

[0003] In the cooking process, the user needs to manually control the water inlet and stop of the heating assembly, and the user needs to stay beside the steam stew pot, thereby bringing inconvenience to the user's use of the steam stew pot. UTILITARY MODEL CONTENT

[0004] The utility model aims at solving one of the technical problems existing in prior art or related art.

[0005] Therefore, in the first aspect, the utility model provides a base subassembly for cooking equipment, the cooking equipment has a cooking cavity, and the base subassembly comprises: a base; a steam generating assembly arranged in the base, wherein the steam generating assembly comprises a heating disc and a steam generating piece, the heating disc is used for heating water in the steam generating piece to provide steam into the cooking cavity; and a water control assembly arranged in the base, wherein the water control assembly comprises a temperature switch, the temperature of the temperature switch changes with the temperature change of the heating disc, when the temperature of the temperature switch is greater than or equal to a first set temperature T1, the water control assembly is used for connecting a water supply end with the steam generating piece, when the temperature of the temperature switch is less than a second set temperature T2, the water control assembly closes the passage between the water supply end and the steam generating piece, and T1 is greater than T2; wherein the highest temperature that the temperature switch can reach is t1 under the condition that there is water in the steam generating piece, and T1 is greater than t1.

[0006] The steam generating assembly comprises the heating disc and the steam generating piece, and the water of the water supply end can enter the steam generating piece through the pipeline. The heating disc can make the water become steam by increasing the temperature. The cooking equipment has the cooking cavity, and the steam in the steam generating piece can heat the food material in the cooking cavity.

[0007] The water control assembly is arranged in the base, and in the working state of the steam generating assembly, the heating disc is heated and warmed up, and the temperature of the temperature switch in the water control assembly changes with the heating disc, that is, when the temperature of the heating disc rises, the temperature of the temperature switch also rises. When the temperature of the temperature switch reaches the first set temperature, the passage between the water supply end and the steam generating piece is opened, and the water of the water supply end can enter the steam generating piece. In this case, the heating disc is in a state of high temperature, and the water entering the steam generating piece is rapidly evaporated to form steam. During the evaporation of the water in the steam generating piece, the temperature of the heating disc gradually decreases, and the temperature of the temperature switch also decreases. When the temperature of the temperature switch is less than the second set temperature, the water control assembly closes the passage between the water supply end and the steam generating piece, and the water of the water supply end stops entering the steam generating piece. In this case, the heating disc can continue to be warmed up until the temperature of the temperature switch reaches the first set temperature again, the water control assembly opens the passage between the water supply end and the steam generating piece again, and the above process is repeated.

[0008] In this way, the water control assembly can open or close the passage between the water supply end and the steam generating piece according to the temperature of the temperature switch, so as to control the water inlet state in the steam generating piece through the temperature of the temperature switch. The cooking device realizes the automatic water inlet function, avoids the user manually opening or closing the water inlet, reduces the risk of long-time dry burning of the heating disc, improves the water supply convenience and safety of the cooking device, and the user does not need to stay beside the cooking device during cooking, which provides convenience for the user to use the cooking device. Moreover, the water control assembly ensures that a certain amount of water enters the steam generating piece, and the heating disc heats the certain amount of water, thereby improving the steam generation speed of the heating disc and shortening the cooking time.

[0009] In the case that there is water in the evaporation generating cavity, the highest temperature that the temperature switch can reach is t1, and T1>t1. Therefore, in the case that there is water in the steam generating piece, the temperature of the temperature switch cannot reach T1, thereby avoiding rewatering in the case that there is water in the steam generating piece, preventing the water from continuing to enter in the boiling water stage, and avoiding water overflow in the steam generating piece.

[0010] In addition, the base assembly in the above technical solution according to the present application can also have the following additional technical features:

[0011] In some technical solutions, optionally, after the water in the steam generating piece is boiled dry, the highest temperature that the temperature switch can reach is t2, and T1

[0012] When the water in the steam generating component is boiled dry, the temperature of the heating plate increases, the temperature of the temperature switch also increases, and the maximum temperature that the temperature switch can reach in the absence of water in the steam generating component is t2, T1 < t2, that is, the maximum temperature that the temperature switch can reach in the dry burning state of the steam generating component is greater than the water inlet temperature of the water control assembly, so as to ensure that the water control assembly can normally water, and avoid long-time dry burning of the heating plate.

[0013] In some technical solutions, optionally, the minimum temperature that the temperature switch can reach when the water supply end is in communication with the steam generating component is t3, T2 > t3.

[0014] In some technical solutions, optionally, the minimum temperature that the temperature switch can reach when the water supply end is in communication with the steam generating component is t3, T2 > t3.

[0015] In some technical solutions, optionally, the steam generating assembly further comprises: a heating component connected with the heating plate, the heating component being used for heating the heating plate, and the temperature switch is attached to the heating plate and located at the side of the heating component.

[0016] In the process of operation of the steam generating assembly, the heating component heats the heating plate, and the heating plate can heat the water in the steam generating component. The temperature switch is attached to the heating plate, so that the temperature of the temperature switch and the temperature of the heating plate tend to be the same. In this scheme, the assembly position of the temperature switch is set near the heating component, so that the temperature of the heating component can be transmitted to the temperature switch faster during the heating process, so that the temperature switch can respond faster, and the temperature of the temperature switch can more easily reach the first set temperature T1, so as to ensure that the steam generating component can water in time.

[0017] In some technical solutions, optionally, the temperature switch is arranged apart from the heating component.

[0018] The temperature switch is attached to the heating plate, but the temperature switch needs to be arranged apart from the heating component. The temperature change of the temperature switch should be mainly affected by the temperature of the heating plate, and the temperature change of the heating plate is used to reflect whether there is water in the steam generating component, so that the temperature change of the temperature switch can also accurately reflect whether there is water in the steam generating component by arranging the temperature switch apart from the heating component, so as to ensure that the water control assembly can accurately control the water inlet time and the water stop time.

[0019] In some technical solutions, optionally, the water control assembly is connected with the heating plate.

[0020] The water control assembly is installed on the heating disc, so as to facilitate the control of assembly and size error, and to avoid the size deviation after the components are installed on different structures, and to ensure that the components can be stably matched after installation.

[0021] In some embodiments, the water control assembly further comprises: a valve body shell connected with the heating disc, the valve body shell being provided with a water inlet pipe, a water inlet and a water inlet cavity, the water inlet pipe and the water inlet cavity being in communication through the water inlet, the water inlet cavity being in communication with the steam generating component; an elastic sealing element located in the water inlet cavity; a top rod slidingly connected with the valve body shell, one end of the top rod being in contact with the elastic sealing element, the other end of the top rod being in contact with a temperature switch, the temperature switch being used to drive the top rod to move relative to the valve body shell, the elastic sealing element being opened when the elastic sealing element is pushed by the top rod, and the elastic sealing element being closed when the elastic sealing element is in an initial position.

[0022] The temperature switch can push the top rod, the top rod can push the elastic sealing element, the elastic sealing element is opened when the elastic sealing element is pushed, at this time the water inlet pipe and the water inlet cavity are in communication, and the water of the water supply end flows into the steam generating component through the water inlet pipe, the water inlet and the water inlet cavity in turn. When the temperature switch does not push the top rod, the top rod does not push the elastic sealing element, and the elastic sealing element is closed, so that the water of the water supply end cannot flow into the steam generating component.

[0023] The elastic sealing element has a stable and high elastic effect, and is easy to deform, so that a smaller driving force can cause the elastic sealing element to deform, thereby improving the triggering flexibility. When the top rod stops pushing the elastic sealing element, the elastic sealing element can automatically reset under the action of the elastic force. In addition, the elastic sealing element has a soft texture, so that the elastic sealing element can be closely attached to the valve body shell, thereby effectively sealing the passage between the water supply end and the steam generating component.

[0024] In some embodiments, the temperature switch comprises: a deformation portion connected with the heating disc, the deformation portion deforming when the temperature of the deformation portion is greater than or equal to a first set temperature T1, and the deformation portion being in an original state when the temperature of the deformation portion is less than a second set temperature T2; a pushing portion connected with the deformation portion, the pushing portion pushing the top rod when the deformation portion deforms.

[0025] The pushing portion is in contact with the deformation portion, and the pushing portion is lapped on the position of the deformation portion where the deformation occurs, the deformation portion being used to push the pushing portion, and the pushing portion being able to move following the deformation of the deformation portion when the deformation portion deforms.

[0026] One end of the ejector rod is in contact with the pushing part, and the other end of the ejector rod is in contact with the elastic sealing piece.

[0027] In this way, when the deformation part and the ejector rod are staggered, the linkage between the two can be realized through the pushing part, and the reasonable layout of the internal structure of the cooking device is facilitated.

[0028] In some embodiments, the water inlet pipe comprises a pipe bottom wall, and the recess is arranged on the pipe bottom wall.

[0029] The bottom wall in the water inlet pipe is set as the pipe bottom wall, the recess is arranged on the pipe bottom wall, the recess is lower than other positions in the pipe bottom wall, and the water inlet is arranged on the inner wall of the recess.

[0030] In some embodiments, the first end of the water inlet pipe is in communication with the water inlet, and the water inlet pipe is arranged to be inclined towards the water inlet from the second end to the first end of the water inlet pipe.

[0031] The water inlet pipe is inclined towards the water inlet hole, so that water in the water inlet pipe can be gathered towards the water inlet, improving the smoothness of water inlet.

[0032] In some embodiments, the temperature of the temperature switch first rises to the highest temperature and then drops to the lowest temperature during the period in which the water supply end is in communication with the steam generator and the passage between the water supply end and the steam generator is closed.

[0033] During the initial water inlet process in the steam generator, the temperature of the heating disc and the temperature switch continues to rise for a period of time, and as the water evaporates and takes away heat, the temperature of the heating disc and the temperature switch begins to drop, and when the passage between the water supply end and the steam generator is closed, the temperature of the temperature switch reaches the lowest point.

[0034] In a second aspect, the utility model provides a kind of cooking equipment, comprising: the base assembly in any of the above technical solutions.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0047] In order to enable a person skilled in the art to more clearly understand the above-mentioned purposes, features and advantages of the present practical new type, the present practical new type will be further described in detail below in conjunction with the drawings and specific embodiments. It should be noted that the embodiments of the present application and the features in the embodiments can be combined with each other without conflict.

[0048] In the following description, numerous specific details are set forth in order to provide a thorough understanding of the present application. However, it will be apparent to one skilled in the art that the present application can be practiced without the specific details and other implementations can be employed. In other instances, well-known methods have not been described in detail in order not to unnecessarily obscure aspects of the present application.

[0049] The following description refers to the accompanying drawings. In the drawings, like reference numbers indicate similar or corresponding components, wherein: Figures 1 to 8 A base assembly and a cooking appliance according to some embodiments of the present application are described below.

[0050] In conjunction with Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 , in some embodiments of the present application, a base assembly 100 is provided, which is used in a cooking appliance having a cooking cavity 310. The base assembly 100 includes a base 110, a steam generation assembly 120 and a water control assembly 130. The steam generation assembly 120 is arranged in the base 110 and includes a heating disc 121 and a steam generation piece 122. The heating disc 121 is used to heat water in the steam generation piece 122 to provide steam into the cooking cavity 310. The water control assembly 130 is arranged in the base 110 and includes a temperature switch 131. The temperature of the temperature switch 131 changes with the temperature of the heating disc 121. When the temperature of the temperature switch 131 is greater than or equal to a first set temperature T1, the water control assembly 130 is used to connect the water supply end 200 to the steam generation piece 122. When the temperature of the temperature switch 131 is less than a second set temperature T2, the water control assembly 130 closes the path between the water supply end 200 and the steam generation piece 122, and T1≥T2. In the case that there is water in the steam generation piece 122, the maximum temperature that the temperature switch 131 can reach is t1, and T1>t1.

[0051] The steam generation assembly 120 includes the heating disc 121 and the steam generation piece 122. Water from the water supply end 200 can enter the steam generation piece 122 through a pipeline. The heating disc 121 can heat the water to become steam by increasing the temperature. The cooking appliance has the cooking cavity 310, and the steam in the steam generation piece 122 can heat the food in the cooking cavity.

[0052] The water control assembly 130 is arranged in the base 110. In the working state of the steam generating assembly 120, the heating disc 121 is heated and heated up, and the temperature of the temperature switch 131 in the water control assembly 130 changes with the heating disc 121, that is, when the temperature of the heating disc 121 rises, the temperature of the temperature switch 131 also rises. When the temperature of the temperature switch 131 reaches the first set temperature, the passage between the water supply end 200 and the steam generating element 122 is opened, and the water of the water supply end 200 can enter the steam generating element 122. In this case, the heating disc 121 is in a state of high temperature, and the water entering the steam generating element 122 is rapidly evaporated to form steam. During the evaporation of the water in the steam generating element 122, the temperature of the heating disc 121 gradually decreases, and the temperature of the temperature switch 131 also decreases. When the temperature of the temperature switch 131 is less than the second set temperature, the water control assembly 130 closes the passage between the water supply end 200 and the steam generating element 122, and the water of the water supply end 200 stops entering the steam generating element 122. In this case, the heating disc 121 can continue to heat up until the temperature of the temperature switch 131 reaches the first set temperature again, the water control assembly 130 opens the passage between the water supply end 200 and the steam generating element 122 again, and the above process is repeated.

[0053] In this way, the water control assembly 130 can open or close the passage between the water supply end 200 and the steam generating element 122 according to the temperature of the temperature switch 131, so as to control the water inlet state in the steam generating element 122 through the temperature of the temperature switch 131. The cooking device realizes the automatic water inlet function, avoids the user manually opening or closing the water inlet port 136, reduces the risk of long-time dry burning of the heating disc 121, improves the water supply convenience and safety of the cooking device, and the user does not need to stay beside the cooking device during cooking, which provides convenience for the user to use the cooking device. Moreover, the water control assembly 130 ensures that a certain amount of water enters the steam generating element 122, the heating disc 121 heats the certain amount of water, improves the steam generation speed of the heating disc 121, and is beneficial to shorten the cooking time.

[0054] In the case that there is water in the evaporation generating cavity, the highest temperature that the temperature switch 131 can reach is t1, and T1>t1. Therefore, in the case that there is water in the steam generating element 122, the temperature of the temperature switch 131 cannot reach T1, thereby avoiding rewatering in the case that there is water in the steam generating element 122, preventing the water from continuing to enter in the boiling stage, and avoiding the water in the steam generating element 122 from overflowing.

[0055] Exemplarily, the first set temperature can be greater than 100 degrees Celsius, that is, the first set temperature is greater than the vaporization temperature of water.

[0056] In some embodiments, the maximum temperature that the temperature switch 131 can reach after the water in the steam generating component 122 is boiled dry is t2, and T1 < t2.

[0057] After the water in the steam generating component 122 is boiled dry, the temperature of the heating disc 121 rises, and the temperature of the temperature switch 131 rises as well. In the case that there is no water in the steam generating component 122, the maximum temperature that the temperature switch 131 can reach is t2, and T1 < t2, that is, the maximum temperature that the temperature switch 131 can reach in the case of dry burning of the steam generating component 122 is greater than the water inlet temperature of the water control assembly 130, so as to ensure that the water control assembly 130 can normally inlet water, and avoid long-time dry burning of the heating disc 121.

[0058] In some embodiments, the minimum temperature that the temperature switch 131 can reach in the case that the water supply end 200 is in communication with the steam generating component 122 is t3, and T2 > t3.

[0059] In the case that the water supply end 200 is in communication with the steam generating component 122, the steam generating assembly 120 is in the water inlet state. In the water inlet state, the minimum temperature that the temperature switch 131 can reach is t3, and T2 > t3, that is, the temperature at which the water control assembly 130 stops water inlet should be greater than t3, so as to ensure that the temperature of the temperature switch 131 can be lower than the temperature at which the water control assembly 130 stops water inlet, and ensure that the water control assembly 130 can stop water inlet, and prevent the water control assembly 130 from continuously inletting water to cause excessive water in the steam generating component 122.

[0060] In combination with the embodiments shown in Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 , in some embodiments, the steam generating assembly 120 further comprises a heating component 123, the heating component 123 is connected with the heating disc 121, the heating component 123 is used for heating the heating disc 121, the temperature switch 131 is attached to the heating disc 121, and the temperature switch 131 is located at the side of the heating component 123.

[0061] In the process of operation of the steam generating assembly 120, the heating component 123 heats the heating disc 121, and the heating disc 121 can heat the water in the steam generating component 122. The temperature switch 131 is attached to the heating disc 121, so that the temperature of the temperature switch 131 tends to be the same as the temperature of the heating disc 121. In the present scheme, the assembly position of the temperature switch 131 is set near the heating component 123, so that in the heating process, the temperature of the heating component 123 can be transmitted to the temperature switch 131 more quickly, so that the temperature switch 131 can respond more quickly, and the temperature of the temperature switch 131 can more easily reach the first set temperature T1, so as to ensure that the steam generating component 122 can inlet water in time.

[0062] In combination Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown in FIG. 1 1, in some embodiments, the temperature switch 131 is optionally spaced apart from the heating element 123.

[0063] The temperature switch 131 is attached to the heating disc 121, but the temperature switch 131 needs to be spaced apart from the heating element 123. The temperature change of the temperature switch 131 should be mainly affected by the temperature of the heating disc 121, and the temperature change of the heating disc 121 is used to determine whether there is water in the steam generating element 122. Therefore, spacing the temperature switch 131 from the heating element 123 can reduce the temperature influence of the heating element 123 on the temperature switch 131, and ensure that the temperature change of the temperature switch 131 can also accurately reflect whether there is water in the steam generating element 122, thereby ensuring that the water control assembly 130 can accurately control the timing of water inlet and water stop.

[0064] In combination Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown in FIG. 1 1, in some embodiments, the water control assembly 130 is connected to the heating disc 121.

[0065] The water control assembly 130 is installed on the heating disc 121, thereby facilitating the control of assembly and dimensional error, and avoiding the situation that dimensional deviation occurs after each component is installed on different structures, and ensuring that each component can stably cooperate after installation.

[0066] In combination Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown in FIG. 1 1, in some embodiments, the water control assembly 130 further comprises: a valve body shell 132 connected to the heating disc 121, the valve body shell 132 being provided with a water inlet pipe 135, a water inlet port 136 and a water inlet cavity 137, the water inlet pipe 135 and the water inlet cavity 137 being communicated through the water inlet port 136, the water inlet cavity 137 being communicated with the steam generating element 122; an elastic sealing element 138 located in the water inlet cavity 137; a top rod 139 slidingly connected to the valve body shell 132, one end of the top rod 139 being in contact with the elastic sealing element 138, and the other end of the top rod 139 being in contact with the temperature switch 131, the temperature switch 131 being used to drive the top rod 139 to move relative to the valve body shell 132, the elastic sealing element 138 being opened to the water inlet port 136 when the elastic sealing element 138 is pushed by the top rod 139, and the elastic sealing element 138 being closed to the water inlet port 136 when the elastic sealing element 138 is in an initial position.

[0067] The temperature switch 131 can push the ejector rod 139, and the ejector rod 139 can push the elastic sealing piece 138. When the elastic sealing piece 138 is pushed, the elastic sealing piece opens the water inlet 136, and the water inlet pipe 135 is in communication with the water inlet cavity 137. The water in the water supply end 200 flows into the steam generating piece 122 through the water inlet pipe 135, the water inlet 136, and the water inlet cavity 137 in sequence (a pipe can be arranged between the water inlet cavity 137 and the steam generating piece 122). When the temperature switch 131 does not push the ejector rod 139, the ejector rod 139 does not push the elastic sealing piece 138, and the elastic sealing piece 138 closes the water inlet 136. The water in the water supply end 200 cannot flow into the steam generating piece 122.

[0068] The elastic sealing piece 138 has a stable high-elasticity effect and is easy to deform. A small driving force can cause the elastic sealing piece 138 to deform, thereby improving the triggering flexibility. When the ejector rod 139 stops pushing the elastic sealing piece 138, the elastic sealing piece 138 can automatically reset under the action of the elastic force. In addition, the elastic sealing piece 138 is soft in texture, so the elastic sealing piece 138 can be tightly attached to the valve body shell 132, thereby effectively sealing the passage between the water supply end 200 and the steam generating piece 122.

[0069] The valve body shell 132 includes a water valve upper cover 133 and a water valve lower cover 134. The elastic sealing piece 138 is installed between the water valve upper cover 133 and the water valve lower cover 134. The water valve lower cover 134 is installed on the heating disc 121. The elastic sealing piece 138 is fixed on the water valve lower cover 134, and the water inlet hole is arranged on the water valve upper cover 133. When the ejector rod 139 pushes the elastic sealing piece 138, part of the elastic sealing piece 138 rises, thereby opening the water inlet 136.

[0070] Exemplarily, the elastic sealing piece 138 is a rubber elastic piece or a silica gel elastic piece.

[0071] In some embodiments, the valve body shell 132 and the temperature switch 131 are connected to the heating disc 121.

[0072] The various components in the water control assembly 130 are assembled on the same component, facilitating the control of assembly and size error, avoiding the deviation in height after assembly when the components are respectively assembled on different components, causing the temperature switch 131 to deform and fail to push the ejector rod 139. In the present scheme, the components are assembled on the heating disc 121 of the steam generating assembly 120, ensuring the installation precision.

[0073] In combination with Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 , Figure 6 , Figure 7and Figure 8 As shown in some embodiments, the temperature switch 131 comprises a deformation part 1311 and a pushing part 1312. The deformation part 1311 is connected to the heating disc 121. When the temperature of the deformation part 1311 is greater than or equal to the first set temperature T1, the deformation part 1311 deforms. When the temperature of the deformation part 1311 is less than the second set temperature T2, the deformation part 1311 is in the original state. The pushing part 1312 is connected to the deformation part 1311. When the deformation part 1311 deforms, the pushing part 1312 pushes the top rod 139.

[0074] The pushing part 1312 is in contact with the deformation part 1311. The pushing part 1312 is overlapped on the position of the deformation part 1311 where the deformation part 1311 can deform. The deformation part 1311 is used to push the pushing part 1312. When the deformation part 1311 deforms, the pushing part 1312 can move following the deformation of the deformation part 1311.

[0075] One end of the top rod 139 is in contact with the pushing part 1312. The other end of the top rod 139 is in contact with the elastic sealing part 138. Exemplarily, the pushing part 1312 can be a strip-shaped plate. The two ends of the pushing part 1312 are connected to the deformation part 1311 and the top rod 139 respectively. When the pushing part 1312 moves following the deformation of the deformation part 1311, the pushing part 1312 can push the top rod 139 to move. In turn, the top rod 139 can push the elastic sealing part 138 to move, so as to open or close the passage between the water supply end 200 and the steam generating part 122.

[0076] In this way, when the deformation part 1311 and the top rod 139 are distributed staggeredly, the linkage between the two can be realized through the pushing part 1312, which facilitates the reasonable layout of the internal structure of the cooking device.

[0077] Figure 7 In the first state, the deformation part 1311 is not deformed, and does not push the pushing part 1312. Figure 8 In the second state, the deformation part 1311 is deformed, and pushes the pushing part 1312. Figure 8 In the third state, the left side of the pushing part 1312 is raised upward.

[0078] The temperature switch 131 can deform according to the change of its own temperature. Exemplarily, the material of the temperature switch 131 can be a temperature-sensitive material, such as liquid crystal elastomer and memory metal, or the temperature switch 131 adopts a bimetallic material composed of two metals with different thermal expansion and contraction coefficients.

[0079] In combination with Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown in some embodiments, the water inlet pipe 135 comprises a pipe bottom wall 1351. The pipe bottom wall 1351 is provided with a recessed part 1352. The water inlet 136 is arranged on the recessed part 1352.

[0080] The bottom wall in the water inlet pipe 135 is set as a pipe bottom wall 1351, and a recessed portion 1352 is recessed on the pipe bottom wall 1351, the recessed portion 1352 is lower than other positions in the pipe bottom wall 1351, and the water inlet 136 is arranged on the inner wall of the recessed portion 1352. Since the recessed portion 1352 is a recessed structure, the recessed portion 1352 is at a lower position in the pipe bottom wall 1351, and water in the water inlet pipe 135 is easy to flow to the recessed portion 1352, thereby ensuring the smoothness of water inlet.

[0081] As shown in Figure 3 In some embodiments, optionally, the first end of the water inlet pipe 135 is in communication with the water inlet 136, and the water inlet pipe 135 is arranged to be inclined towards the water inlet 136 from the second end of the water inlet pipe 135 to the first end of the water inlet pipe 135.

[0082] The water inlet pipe 135 is inclined towards the water inlet hole, so that water in the water inlet pipe 135 can be gathered towards the water inlet 136, thereby improving the smoothness of water inlet.

[0083] In some embodiments, optionally, the temperature of the temperature switch 131 first rises to the highest temperature and then drops to the lowest temperature in the period from when the water supply end 200 is in communication with the steam generating element 122 to when the passage between the water supply end 200 and the steam generating element 122 is closed.

[0084] In the process of just starting to water in the steam generating element 122, the temperature of the heating disc 121 and the temperature switch 131 continues to rise for a period of time, and as the water evaporates and takes away heat, the temperature of the heating disc 121 and the temperature switch 131 begins to drop, and when the passage between the water supply end 200 and the steam generating element 122 is closed, the temperature of the temperature switch 131 reaches the lowest point. After stopping water, the temperature of the heating disc 121 and the temperature switch 131 continues to rise. Through the above matching mode, it can be ensured that the temperature switch 131 stably opens or closes the passage between the water supply end 200 and the steam generating element 122, and realizes the function of a small amount of water and rapid steam generation.

[0085] In the embodiments of the utility model, a kind of cooking equipment is proposed, including: base assembly 100 in any of the above embodiments, and can achieve the same technical effects, here no longer tedious.

[0086] Exemplarily, the cooking equipment can be a steam pot, a steaming and cooking integrated machine and the like.

[0087] The water supply end 200 comprises a water tank, which is arranged on the base assembly 100, that is, the base assembly 100 in the embodiment comprises the water tank, so that the base assembly 100 does not need to be arranged near a water source at a user's home, and the water control assembly 130 is used for opening or closing a passage between the water tank and the steam generating element 122. The cooking device further comprises a cover body 300, which is arranged on the base assembly 100, and a cooking cavity 310 is formed between the cover body 300 and the base assembly 100.

[0088] The water tank is used for storing water and is arranged at a high position, and the steam generating assembly 120 is arranged at a low position, so as to ensure that water flows into the steam generating assembly 120 smoothly by gravity.

[0089] Water is supplied into the steam generating element 122 by cooperation of the water control assembly 130 and the water tank, and a water pump is not needed to provide water power, so that noise of the cooking device during operation can be reduced, and user's comfort for using the cooking device is improved.
