Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of liquid storage technology, and in particular to a steam-baking-sterilizing integrated machine. Background Technology

[0002] A steam oven is a kitchen appliance that integrates steaming and baking functions. It combines the baking function of a traditional oven with the steam cooking function of a steam oven, allowing users to complete multiple cooking tasks in one appliance. In related technologies, after cooking is complete, the steam oven contains high-temperature steam, and opening the oven will cause steam to billow out. Utility Model Content

[0003] Therefore, it is necessary to provide a steam oven with integrated steaming, baking, and sterilization functions to solve the problem of steam blowing onto the face after cooking in a steam oven.

[0004] A steam-bake-sterilize integrated appliance includes a steam-bake inner cavity, a sterilize inner cavity, and a first sterilization structure disposed in the sterilize inner cavity. The first sterilization structure includes a lamp tube and a light-transmitting cover surrounding the lamp tube, with a first sterilization chamber between the light-transmitting cover and the lamp tube.

[0005] It is understandable that a steam oven and a sterilization oven are designed to integrate steaming, baking, and sterilization into one unit, allowing for simultaneous steaming, baking, and sterilization functions. Specifically, the first sterilization structure, while sterilizing the sterilization oven, simultaneously delivers sterilizing agents from the first sterilization chamber and cooled gas from the cooling chamber to the steam oven through a first flow path formed by connecting the first sterilization chamber and the cooling chamber in series. This sterilizes and cools the steam oven. After cooking is complete in the steam oven, the cooled gas exchanges heat with the high-temperature steam in the steam oven, causing the high-temperature steam to condense into water, preventing steam from hitting the face when the steam oven is opened.

[0009] In one embodiment, the steam oven has a first state and a second state; in the first state, the first control valve is open, and the second control valve and the third control valve are closed, and the first flow path, the first conveying pipe and the steam oven inner cavity together define a first circuit; in the second state, the second control valve and the third control valve are open, the first control valve is closed, and the first flow path and the steam oven inner cavity are connected to the external environment through the first vent pipe and the second vent pipe and together define a second circuit.

[0010] In one embodiment, the steam-baking-sterilizing integrated machine further includes a second sterilization structure, which is disposed in the first flow path and has a second sterilization chamber. The air outlet of the second sterilization chamber is connected to the air inlet of the first sterilization chamber, and the air outlet of the first sterilization chamber is connected to the air inlet of the refrigeration chamber.

[0011] In one embodiment, the steam oven inner cavity is provided with a vent, and the steam oven and sterilizer also includes a fan and a heater. The fan and the heater are both located at the vent.

The terminology used in this application is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to be limiting of the application. The term "and / or" as used in this application includes any and all combinations of one or more of the associated listed items.

[0026] Please see Figures 1 to 4 This application provides a steam oven 100, which includes a steam oven 11 and a sterilization oven 12, so as to integrate the two different functions of steaming, baking and sterilization into one, and can simultaneously cook food and sterilize tableware.

[0027] Furthermore, the steam oven 100 also includes a first disinfection structure 21 disposed in the disinfection inner liner 12, which can disinfect the tableware in the disinfection inner liner 12. Specifically, the first disinfection structure 21 includes a lamp tube and a light-transmitting cover surrounding the lamp tube. A first disinfection chamber is provided between the light-transmitting cover and the lamp tube, and the disinfection factor in the first disinfection chamber is defined as the first disinfection factor.

[0028] The steam oven 100 also includes a refrigeration structure 30, which has a refrigeration chamber connected in series with a first sterilization chamber, jointly defining a first flow path 101. The first flow path 101 is connected to the steam oven inner cavity 11. The refrigeration chamber cools the gas in the first flow path 101, and the first flow path 101 delivers the first sterilizing agent and the cooled gas to the steam oven inner cavity 11. Before cooking in the steam oven inner cavity 11, the gas from the first flow path 101 is delivered to the steam oven inner cavity 11. The cooled gas, carrying the first sterilizing agent, facilitates sterilization and preservation of the interior of the steam oven inner cavity 11, reducing food spoilage and bacterial growth. After cooking in the steam oven inner cavity 11, the gas from the first flow path 101 is delivered to the steam oven inner cavity 11, facilitating the condensation of high-temperature steam to form condensate, preventing steam from hitting the face and causing burns.

[0029] In summary, this application integrates steaming, baking, and sterilization functions into one unit, saving kitchen space and making the kitchen layout more rational and aesthetically pleasing. Simultaneously, the steam-baking-sterilization integrated oven 100, through the first sterilization structure 21 and the refrigeration unit, preserves and sterilizes the food in the steam-baking inner pot 11, allowing food to be placed in the inner pot for extended periods. Users can easily use the preset steam-baking function to obtain more hygienic and fresher food. Furthermore, it can cool the inner pot 11 after cooking to condense high-temperature steam and prevent steam from blowing onto the user, thus improving the user experience.

[0030] In a specific embodiment, the lamp in the first disinfection structure 21 can emit ultraviolet light. The 253.7nm ultraviolet light emitted directly by the lamp is defined as the second disinfection factor. The second disinfection factor can be emitted outward through the light-transmitting cover to disinfect the tableware in the disinfection inner liner 12. The first disinfection factor is ozone formed by the excitation of 185nm ultraviolet light emitted by the lamp in the first disinfection chamber by the air. Ozone can disinfect and preserve food.

[0031] In a specific embodiment, the cooling structure 30 includes a cooling pipe and a semiconductor component. The cooling pipe forms a cooling cavity, and the semiconductor component is configured to form a hot end and a cold end when energized. The cooling pipe is attached to or close to the cold end. Thus, the cold end of the semiconductor component can cool the gas in the cooling cavity to facilitate its delivery to the steam oven inner liner 11.

[0032] In a further embodiment, the semiconductor component includes a thermocouple pair, a hot-end substrate, and a cold-end substrate. The thermocouple pair is made of semiconductor material and is disposed between the hot-end substrate and the cold-end substrate, with the hot-end substrate at the hot end and the cold-end substrate at the cold end. When the cooling structure 30 is energized, electron-hole pairs are generated at one end of the thermocouple pair, resulting in a decrease in internal energy and a decrease in temperature, forming a cold end; while at the other end, due to electron-hole recombination, the internal energy increases and the temperature rises, forming a hot end, so as to dissipate heat outward.

[0033] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, in a specific embodiment, the steam oven 100 also includes a controller 60, which is mounted on the top of the steam oven liner 11 and is attached to or close to the cooling cavity. Thus, the cooling structure 30 can also cool the controller 60, promoting heat dissipation and ensuring stable operation of the controller 60.

[0034] In an optional embodiment, the first flow path 101 has an air inlet and an air outlet, the air outlet being connected to the steam oven liner 11, and the air inlet being connected to the steam oven liner 11 and / or the external environment. Thus, when the air inlet is connected to the steam oven liner 11, an internal circulation is formed between the steam oven liner 11 and the first flow path 101; when the air inlet is connected to the external environment, an external circulation is formed between the external environment and the steam oven liner 11.

[0035] like Figure 4 As shown, in a specific embodiment, a first conveying pipe 102 is provided between the air inlet of the first flow path 101 and the steam oven inner liner 11. The first conveying pipe 102 is connected to a first vent pipe 103, and the other end of the first vent pipe 103 is connected to the external environment. Thus, when the first vent pipe 103 is not connected to the first conveying pipe 102, the gas in the first conveying pipe 102 can enter the first flow path 101 from the first conveying pipe 102. After passing through the first disinfection chamber, the first disinfection factor is carried into the cooling chamber to achieve gas cooling. The cooled gas is then conveyed into the steam oven inner liner 11 to achieve cooling and sterilization of the steam oven inner liner 11. Then, the heat-exchanged air returns to the first conveying pipe 102 and repeats this process again to achieve internal circulation.

[0036] like Figure 4 As shown, when the first vent pipe 103 is connected to the first conveying pipe 102, external air enters the first conveying pipe 102 through the first vent pipe 103, and then enters the first flow path 101 from the first conveying pipe 102. After passing through the first disinfection chamber, the first disinfection factor is carried into the cooling chamber to achieve air cooling. The cooled air is then conveyed into the steam oven liner 11 to achieve cooling and sterilization of the steam oven liner 11. Then, the air after heat exchange returns to the first conveying pipe 102.

[0037] like Figure 4 As shown, further, based on the first vent pipe 103, the first conveying pipe 102 is also connected to a second vent pipe 104. The second vent pipe 104 and the first vent pipe 103 are connected in parallel, and the other end of the second vent pipe 104 is connected to the external environment. In this way, the air that has exchanged heat with the steam oven liner 11 can enter from the first conveying pipe 102 and be output to the second vent pipe 104, thereby realizing external circulation.

[0038] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, in a specific embodiment, the first delivery pipe 102 is equipped with a first control valve 41, and the first vent pipe 103 is equipped with a second control valve 42. The first control valve 41 and the second control valve 42 can be selectively opened. Thus, by opening the first control valve 41 and closing the second control valve 42, external circulation can be blocked, thereby achieving internal gas circulation. Conversely, by closing the first control valve 41 and opening the second control valve 42 to connect the external environment with the first flow path 101, internal circulation is blocked and external circulation is achieved.

[0039] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, in a further embodiment, a third control valve 43 is provided on the second vent pipe 104, and the third control valve 43 and the second control valve 42 can be opened or closed simultaneously. Thus, when the second control valve 42 and the third control valve 43 are opened simultaneously, air enters the first flow path 101 and the steam oven inner liner 11 from the first vent pipe 103 and then flows out from the second vent pipe 104, promoting external circulation. When the second control valve 42 and the third control valve 43 are closed simultaneously, external circulation is blocked, preventing external gas from entering the steam oven inner liner 11.

[0040] In a specific embodiment, the steam oven 100 has a first state. In the first state, the first control valve 41 is open, and the second control valve 42 and the third control valve 43 are closed. The first flow path 101, the first conveying pipe 102, and the steam oven 11 together define a first circuit, thereby realizing gas circulation in the first circuit. The first disinfection factor and the gas cooled by the refrigeration chamber enter the steam oven 11. Before cooking in the steam oven 11, the food placed in the steam oven 11 in advance can be preserved and disinfected to prevent food from spoiling. This makes it convenient for users to put in the food in advance and perform the scheduled cooking operation.

[0041] Furthermore, the steam oven 100 has a second state. In this state, the second control valve 42 and the third control valve 43 are open, and the first control valve 41 is closed. The first flow path 101 and the steam oven liner 11 are connected to the external environment through the first vent pipe 103 and the second vent pipe 104, jointly defining a second circuit. When the cooling structure 30 is on and the first sterilization structure 21 is off, the air in the external environment can be cooled and introduced into the steam oven liner 11. After cooking in the steam oven liner 11, the steam oven liner 11 can be rapidly cooled, causing the steam in the steam oven liner 11 to condense, preventing steam from rushing out when the steam oven liner 11 is opened after cooking, and reducing the risk of burns. When the cooling structure 30 is off and the first sterilization structure 21 is on, the air in the external environment can be introduced. The air can carry the first sterilization factor in the first sterilization structure 21 into the steam oven liner 11 to achieve sterilization, which is beneficial for regular cleaning and sterilization of the steam oven liner 11.

[0042] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, in an optional embodiment, the steam-oven-sterilization integrated machine 100 further includes a second sterilization structure 22. The second sterilization structure 22 is disposed in the first flow path 101 and has a second sterilization chamber. The air outlet of the second sterilization chamber is connected to the air inlet of the first sterilization chamber, and the air outlet of the first sterilization chamber is connected to the air inlet of the refrigeration chamber. The sterilization factor released by the second sterilization structure 22 is defined as a third sterilization factor. By releasing the third sterilization factor, the sterilization and disinfection effect can be enhanced.

[0043] In a specific embodiment, the steam-baking-sterilizing integrated machine 100 also includes a three-way pipe with two inlets and one outlet. One inlet is connected to the outlet of the second control valve 42, and the other inlet is connected to the outlet of the first control valve 41. The outlet of the three-way pipe is connected to the air inlet of the second sterilization chamber.

[0044] In a specific embodiment, the third disinfectant is alternating magnetic force, which is used to deeply treat bacteria, thereby achieving a sterilization effect. For example, the second disinfection structure 22 is configured as an alternating magnetic chamber, which includes a magnet and a hollow pipe. The magnet generates an alternating magnetic field, and the hollow pipe is positioned between the alternating magnetic fields. Gas can pass through the hollow pipe, and microorganisms in the gas are killed as they cut through the magnetic field lines, thus achieving sterilization.

[0045] like Figure 2As shown, in a further embodiment, the steam oven liner 11 is provided with a vent 111. The steam oven 100 also includes a fan 50 and a heater. Both the fan 50 and the heater are located at the vent 111. The air inlet of the fan 50 is connected to the cooling chamber. The heater and the cooling structure 30 can be selectively turned on. Thus, when the fan 50 and the heater are turned on simultaneously, hot air can be generated to heat the food, at which time the cooling structure 30 is turned off. When cooking is completed, the heater is turned off, and the second circuit is opened to allow the steam in the steam oven liner 11 to condense, preventing steam from blowing onto the surface. The fan 50 can provide power for the circulation of the first and second circuits respectively, promoting gas flow and accelerating the circulation speed.

[0046] like Figure 2 As shown, in a specific embodiment, a space 105 is provided between the steam oven 11 and the sterilization oven 12 to reduce the impact of the heat generated by one of the steam oven 11 and the sterilization oven 12 on the operation of the other. At the same time, the vent 111 is located close to the space 105, which is conducive to the assembly of the fan 50, so that the fan 50 can take in air from the space 105, making the layout more compact and saving the space occupied by the fan 50.

[0047] The technical features of the above embodiments can be combined in any way. For the sake of brevity, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.

[0048] The embodiments described above are merely illustrative of several implementation methods of this application, and while the descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, they should not be construed as limiting the scope of the patent application. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the concept of this application, and these all fall within the scope of protection of this application. Therefore, the patent protection scope of this application should be determined by the appended claims.
