[0028] Reference Figs. 1-3 The embodiment provides a cleaning device for steaming box door glass, including steaming box body 1 and glass door 2 for opening and closing. The steaming box body 1 includes the opening 11 matched with the glass door 2. The cleaning device is arranged on the upper edge of the opening 11, and when the glass door 2 is closed, the cleaning device is arranged on the inner side of the glass door 2.

[0029] The cleaning device comprises a driving member, a brush 3 and a connecting member 4. The driving member is arranged inside the steamer body 1, the upper edge of the opening 11 is provided with a movable hole 12, and the connecting member 4 is installed in the movable hole 12. The brush 3 is connected with the driving member through the connecting member 4, the connecting member 4 can rotate under the driving of the driving member, and in turn drives the brush 3 to swing. The brush 3 is fixed on the inner side of the glass door 2, and swings around the connection position of the connecting member 4 as the axis, and reciprocally swings on the inner surface of the glass door 2.

[0030] Specifically, the length of the brush 3 is arranged to be 12-18 cm. The brush 3 is made of high-temperature-resistant silica gel and is food contact grade to adapt to the high-temperature and high-humidity environment during the operation of the steamer. When the glass door 2 is closed, the brush surface of the brush 3 has a contact of 1-2 mm with the glass door 2. Since the silica gel sleeve is soft, it can effectively remove the water vapor on the glass door 2 to ensure the cleaning effect.

[0031] The end of the connecting member 4 connected with the brush 3 partially protrudes from the movable hole 12, and the protruding part has a length of 1-4 cm. The protruding part is connected with the brush 3, and there is a gap between the brush 3 and the movable hole 12, and the gap is arranged to be 2-3 cm. The gap can avoid interference with the door body sealing strip when the brush 3 swings.

[0032] The connecting member 4 is a connecting rod arranged at a right angle of 90°. The connecting rod is a 304 stainless steel rod, which has the characteristics of corrosion resistance and food contact. The driving member is a rotary motor, which is installed above the opening 11 and arranged close to one side of the opening 11. The movable hole 12 (2 cm long and 1 cm wide) is arranged below the driving member. The movable hole 12 allows one end of the connecting rod to extend into the rotary motor.

[0033] The connecting member 4 of the brush 3 and the rotary motor can pass through the hole to suspend the brush 3 at the top of the inner cavity of the steamer. The brush 3 is arranged close to one side of the opening 11, and the brush 3 forms a fan-shaped scraping area on the inner surface of the glass door 2, which can scrape the glass door 2 in a large area.

[0034] The rotary motor is connected through the connecting member 4, and the connecting member 4 is arranged at a right angle of 90°, so that when the motor rotates, the brush 3 moves at a right angle of 90° with the horizontal position of the motor, thereby scraping the door of the electric steamer. The connecting member 4 is arranged at a right angle of 90° in order to cooperate with other components inside the steamer body 1 to meet the installation position requirements of the rotary motor.

[0035] The steam box body 1 includes a control system and a button, the button is a control switch of the driving member, the brush 3 is started to swing through the button. The rotating motor is powered by 12V direct current, and the power supply is provided by the steam box control system.

[0036] When the steam box works, there are water mist and water droplets on the inner surface of the door glass, and the user needs to observe the raw and cooked state of the food in the steam box. By pressing the button to start the driving member to perform the scraping function of the brush 3, the brush 3 can act for one cycle. In this way, the user can clearly observe the condition of the food in the cavity through the scraping function when the steam box works, thereby improving the user experience.

[0037] When the scraping function is started, the rotating motor rotates clockwise, and when it reaches the interference position of the connecting piece 4, the rotating motor stalls due to insufficient space, and the current becomes large. After the control system detects the stall, it stops power supply for 1 second, and then provides reverse power to the rotating motor, and the rotating motor rotates counterclockwise. When the connecting piece 4 is encountered again, the current becomes large, and the control system judges again that it is stalled and stops power supply. In this way, one cycle of action is completed, forming a fan-shaped scraping area. The interference is that the brush 3 swings to resist the side of the opening 11 and cannot move further.

[0038] The above is only the preferred specific implementation of the present application, but the design concept of the present application is not limited to this. Any skilled person in the art can make non-substantial changes to the present application within the technical scope disclosed by the present application, which is an infringement of the protection scope of the present application.
