[0013] One side of the second heating device extends beyond the heating chamber in the horizontal direction. The cooking appliance also includes a display and control device, which is located in the upper cavity and on the other side of the second heating device.

[0014] In one embodiment, the mounting cavity is located on one side of the heating chamber in the first horizontal direction; and / or,

[0015] The opening is located on one side of the main body in the first horizontal direction.

[0016] In one embodiment, the mounting cavity is divided into a first mounting cavity and a second mounting cavity that are horizontally distributed, with the second mounting cavity disposed close to the heating chamber;

[0017] The electronic control device is located in the first mounting cavity;

[0018] The first heating device includes at least one heating element disposed in the heating chamber;

[0019] The second mounting cavity is provided with an airflow driving device, which has two air outlets, one of which is an air inlet and the other is an air outlet. The two air outlets of the airflow driving device are connected to the heating chamber to form a circulating airflow.

[0020] In one embodiment, a tray is further provided in the heating chamber, and an upper air duct section is formed in the area above the tray in the heating chamber. A gap is formed between the tray and the bottom of the heating chamber to form a lower air duct section. An upper connecting port and a lower connecting port are provided on one side wall of the heating chamber. The upper connecting port connects one end of the upper air duct section and an air inlet. The lower connecting port connects one end of the lower air duct section and another air outlet. The other ends of the upper air duct section and the lower air duct section are connected.

[0042] Existing conventional combination cooking appliances offer functions such as frying, stir-frying, deep-frying, and boiling, resulting in significant homogenization. They lack the grilling function commonly used in a meal, and the need to transfer food between different cooking appliances during the preparation of some dishes is cumbersome. While existing built-in integrated cooktops can solve these problems, their installation and use are still relatively complicated. To address this, a small countertop multi-functional combination cooktop has emerged, fulfilling the entire cooking process from frying and grilling to stewing and boiling. It is compact, convenient, space-saving, and easy to store. However, in existing combination cooking appliances, the heating elements can interfere with each other, reducing the heating performance of the individual units.

[0043] To solve the above technical problems, such as Figures 1 to 3 As shown, this utility model proposes a cooking appliance 100, including a main body 1, a first heating device 2, and a second heating device 3: the main body 1 has a heating chamber 11 and an opening 12 that communicates with the heating chamber 11 and can be opened and closed; a heating zone 13 is provided at the upper end of the main body 1, the heating zone 13 is used for placing and heating a pot; the first heating device 2 is disposed in the main body 1 and is used to heat the food in the heating chamber 11; the second heating device 3 is disposed in the main body 1 and spaced apart from the heating chamber 11, the second heating device 3 is disposed corresponding to the heating zone 13, and is used to heat the pot placed in the heating zone 13; the heating zone 13 and the heating chamber 11 are partially opposite each other in the vertical direction, and the second heating device 3 and the heating chamber 11 are partially offset in the horizontal direction.

[0044] In the technical solution of this utility model, the first heating device 2 can heat the food in the heating chamber 11, and the second heating device 3 can heat the pot placed on the heating zone 13. Thus, the first heating device 2 and the second heating device 3 can work simultaneously, meeting different cooking needs and saving time. Specifically, the second heating device 3 is located within the main body 1 and spaced apart from the heating chamber 11. The second heating device 3 and the heating chamber 11 are partially offset in the horizontal direction, reducing the heat transfer area between the second heating device 3 and the heating chamber 11. This reduces the impact of the heat generated by the first heating device 2 in the heating chamber 11 on the second heating device 3, thereby improving the heating performance of the second heating device 3.

[0045] It is worth noting that the first heating device 2 and the second heating device 3 in this utility model can form a multi-functional integrated machine, such as a baking integrated machine (i.e., cooking appliance 100), arranged vertically relative to each other in a relatively small space. This allows for the integration of multiple kitchen functions (such as cooking and baking) into a single device within a limited kitchen space, reducing the space required for individual appliances, further improving space utilization, and making the kitchen layout more compact and efficient. Traditional large-scale kitchen appliances with an upper stove and lower oven typically occupy a large space, and their functional areas are relatively fixed and difficult to adjust according to actual needs. The multi-functional integrated machine, with its staggered upper and lower levels, is more flexible and can be adjusted according to the actual size and layout of the kitchen to meet different cooking needs. Furthermore, the multi-functional integrated machine can integrate multiple cooking functions, such as a gas stove, induction cooker, oven, and steamer, which can be selected according to the user's actual needs.

[0046] Specifically, in one embodiment, the height of the main body 1 is 70mm to 150mm. This design reduces the overall volume, making the product more compact and lightweight, and easier for users to use and store in different environments. The lower height not only optimizes space utilization but is also particularly suitable for environments with limited space, such as kitchen countertops. Furthermore, in one embodiment, the installation height of the second heating device 3 within the main body 1 can be set to 20mm to 30mm. Therefore, the installation height of the first heating device 2 within the main body 1 is adapted to the thickness of the food in the heating chamber 11. For example, when the food is a pancake, the installation height of the first heating device 2 within the main body 1 can be 40mm to 50mm; when the food is a sweet potato, the installation height of the first heating device 2 within the main body 1 can be 120mm to 130mm.

[0047] The main body 1 is the outer shell of the cooking appliance 100, and its interior forms a closed space for placing food for heating, namely the heating chamber 11. The main body 1 has an openable and closable opening 12, which directly connects to the heating chamber 11, allowing the user to easily place or remove food. A heating zone 13 is formed at the upper end of the main body 1, located on top of the cooking appliance 100, for placing pots or other cooking utensils for heating.

[0048] The first heating device 2 is installed inside the main body 1 to generate heat. It should be noted that the first heating device 2 can be a heating wire, heating tube, or other type of heating element. The main body 1 also contains a second heating device 3 for heating a pot placed on the heating zone 13. The second heating device 3 can take a different form than the first heating device 2 in the heating chamber 11 to provide another heating method. It should be noted that the second heating device 3 can use electromagnetic induction technology; when a metal pot is placed in the heating zone 13, an electromagnetic field generates eddy currents at the bottom of the pot, directly heating it. This is suitable for efficient and rapid heating, and is suitable for cooking methods such as boiling, stir-frying, and pan-frying. The second heating device 3 can also use a resistance heating element, transferring heat generated by the resistance heating element to the pot, suitable for slow cooking and heat preservation. The second heating device 3 can also use an infrared heater, directly heating the surface of the pot or food through radiation, suitable for rapid heating and maintaining the surface temperature of food. Thus, by integrating two different heating methods into the same cooking appliance 100, users can choose the most suitable heating mode according to their specific cooking needs, greatly improving cooking efficiency, flexibility, and convenience. Users do not need to purchase additional kitchen appliances, satisfying diverse cooking requirements. To enhance safety during use, in some embodiments, the second heating device 3 includes an electromagnetic heating device 31. In this way, the cooking appliance 100 integrates electromagnetic heating and baking functions, and the electromagnetic heating only heats metal cookware. The surface of the heating zone 13 will not heat up when there is no cookware, reducing the risk of accidental burns to the upper part of the main body 1 and improving safety during use.

[0049] It is understood that the second heating device 3 and the heating zone 13 may extend partially to the outside of the heating chamber 11, or the second heating device 3 and the heating zone 13 may extend entirely to the outside of the heating chamber 11. To reduce the horizontal dimensions of the main body 1, in one embodiment, a portion of the second heating device 3 and the heating zone 13 is located above the heating chamber 11, while another portion is horizontally offset from the heating chamber 11. This arrangement, with a portion of the second heating device 3 and the heating zone 13 located above the heating chamber 11, utilizes the space above the heating chamber 11, which helps reduce the compactness of the internal structure of the main body 1, simplifies the overall structural design, and reduces manufacturing complexity and cost.

[0050] It is understood that the second heating device 3 can be disposed directly or spaced apart from the heating chamber 11 within the main body 1. To reduce the impact of the heating chamber 11 on the second heating device 3, in one embodiment, an upper cavity 14 is formed above the heating chamber 11 within the main body 1, extending horizontally beyond the heating chamber 11; the second heating device 3 is disposed within the upper cavity 14. This arrangement isolates the upper cavity 14 from the heating chamber 11, reducing the impact of material flow from the heating chamber 11 into the upper cavity 14 on the second heating device 3. This ensures that there is only energy exchange and no material exchange between the upper cavity 14 and the heating chamber 11, thus reducing the heat exchange rate. Moving the second heating device 3 to the upper cavity 14 better isolates the high-temperature component and maintains its operational performance. Furthermore, the heat exchange efficiency between the upper cavity 14 and the heating chamber 11 can be further reduced by installing heat insulation materials and other safety protection measures. Therefore, in one embodiment, a high-temperature resistant insulating part 18 is provided within the main body 1, located between the second heating device 3 and the heating chamber 11. In this way, the high-temperature resistant insulating part 18 separates the upper cavity 14 from the heating chamber 11, preventing the second heating device 3 from being directly affected by temperature fluctuations within the heating chamber 11, thus helping to maintain a stable operating state. Furthermore, the high-temperature resistant insulating part 18 maintains its own physical and chemical properties in the prolonged high-temperature working environment of the heating chamber 11, preventing deterioration or deformation, thereby extending the overall service life of the equipment. On the other hand, the high-temperature resistant insulating part 18 can reduce the induced current generated by the electromagnetic heating device 31 in the second heating device 3, because good insulating materials have low conductivity and magnetic permeability, which can suppress magnetic field penetration, thereby reducing the risk of electromagnetic interference. Therefore, the high-temperature resistant insulating part 18 can be ceramic or high-temperature resistant plastic.

[0051] The first heating device 2 and the second heating device 3 can be made more convenient for users through the electronic control device 4 and the display control device 5. In one embodiment, a mounting cavity 15 is also formed in the main body 1. The mounting cavity 15 is located below the side of the upper cavity 14 that extends beyond the heating chamber 11, and is located on the horizontal side of the heating chamber 11. The cooking appliance 100 also includes the electronic control device 4, which is disposed in the mounting cavity 15. Thus, by placing the electronic control device 4 in the mounting cavity 15, the electronic control device 4 is less affected by the temperature inside the heating chamber 11, which helps to extend the service life of the electronic control device 4. In addition, the mounting cavity 15 is close to the upper cavity 14 and the heating chamber 11, which facilitates the wiring of the upper and lower areas. In one embodiment, one side of the second heating device 3 extends beyond the heating chamber 11 in the horizontal direction. The cooking appliance 100 also includes the display control device 5, which is disposed in the upper cavity and is located on the other side of the second heating device 3. Thus, the display and control device 5 is disposed in the upper cavity 14. By operating the buttons or knobs in the corresponding operation area, the first heating device 2 and / or the second heating device 3 can be adjusted to meet different cooking needs. The operation display area is convenient for users to view and use. Specifically, in one embodiment, the upper cavity 14 may also be provided with a receiving cavity 16 spaced apart from the second heating device 3. Thus, by placing the display and control device 5 in the receiving cavity 16, the second heating device 3 can be prevented from affecting the display and control device 5, improving the operational stability of the display and control device 5.

[0052] In one embodiment, the mounting cavity 15 is located on one side of the heating chamber 11 in the first horizontal direction. This arrangement makes full use of the available space in the main body 1 structure, reduces the increase in the overall size of the device, makes the whole more compact, and helps to reduce the floor space required, making it particularly suitable for environments with limited space, such as kitchens.

[0053] In one embodiment, the opening 12 is located on one side of the main body 1 in the first horizontal direction. This arrangement facilitates the user in placing or removing food or utensils into or from the heating chamber 11 without bending over or excessively extending their arms, thus improving ease of operation.

[0054] In one embodiment, the mounting cavity 15 is divided into a first mounting cavity 151 and a second mounting cavity 152, which are horizontally distributed. The second mounting cavity 152 is located close to the heating chamber 11. The electronic control device 4 is located in the first mounting cavity 151. The first heating device 2 includes at least one heating element 21 disposed within the heating chamber 11. An airflow driving device 6 is disposed within the second mounting cavity 152. The airflow driving device 6 has two air outlets 61, one of which is an air inlet 611 and the other is an air outlet 612. The two air outlets 61 of the airflow driving device 6 communicate with the heating chamber 11 to form a circulating airflow 62. With this configuration, when the airflow driving device 6 is in operation, it draws in cold air from the air inlet 611, heats the cold air by passing it through the first heating device 2, and then blows it into the heating chamber 11 through the air outlet 612. The resulting hot airflow surrounds and heats the food entering the heating chamber 11 through the opening 12.

[0055] It is understood that the heating element 21 can be a heating tube for heating the heating chamber 11. Compared to the prior art where stainless steel heating tubes are used for direct heating, the heat is concentrated in the area near the heating tube, resulting in higher temperatures in these areas and lower temperatures in areas far from the heating tube. However, when heated by hot airflow, the airflow driving device 6 causes the air inside the heating chamber 11 to circulate continuously, allowing heat to be distributed more quickly and evenly inside the chamber. Thus, even if the position of the second heating device 3 is fixed, the oven can maintain a relatively uniform temperature environment.

[0056] It should also be noted that without proper air circulation, stainless steel heating elements can create "hot spots," or overheated areas, in their vicinity. The airflow drive device 6 ensures good air circulation within the heating chamber 11, effectively dispersing hot spots, preventing overheating in certain areas, and ensuring other parts receive sufficient heat. It also helps to distribute heat evenly and enhances the efficiency of heat transfer from the air to the food surface. Therefore, for foods with a large surface area, a uniform hot airflow can accelerate cooking and ensure even browning of the food surface.

[0057] It is understood that the airflow driving device 6 can be installed at the top, bottom, or side, all of which can realize the airflow circulation in the heating chamber 11. Correspondingly, the two air outlets 61 can be installed on the side wall of the heating chamber 11 on the same side, or on two inner walls that are opposite to each other. It is only necessary to form an arrangement position in the heating chamber 11 that is conducive to the construction of a circulation flow path.

[0058] The airflow drive device 6 is positioned on one side of the heating chamber 11 in the first horizontal direction, rather than occupying the top or bottom space, thus reducing the overall height of the cooking appliance 100. This results in a slimmer product appearance and better fit into the limited spaces of modern kitchens, such as when built-in or placed on a countertop, requiring less vertical space.

[0059] In one embodiment, a tray 17 is further provided inside the heating chamber 11. An upper air duct section 621 is formed in the area above the tray 17 inside the heating chamber 11. A gap exists between the tray 17 and the bottom of the heating chamber 11 to form a lower air duct section 622. An upper connecting port 111 and a lower connecting port 112 are provided on one side wall of the heating chamber 11. The upper connecting port 111 connects one end of the upper air duct section 621 and an air inlet 611. The lower connecting port 112 connects one end of the lower air duct section 622 and another air outlet 612. The other ends of the upper air duct section 621 and the lower air duct section 622 are connected.

[0060] The air inlet 611 and the air outlet 612 are arranged in the vertical direction, thereby creating an airflow path from bottom to top or from top to bottom, allowing the airflow to bend and detour fully through the heating chamber 11, improving air circulation efficiency, and thus enhancing heating uniformity and speed.

[0061] It should be noted that, since the hot air flows through the upper air duct section 621 and the lower air duct section 622, when the food is placed in the heating chamber 11, it can be located in the upper air duct section 621 or the lower air duct section 622.

[0062] This configuration not only ensures the directionality and efficiency of airflow but also optimizes heat transfer, making the temperature inside the heating chamber 11 more uniform. In addition, placing the airflow drive device 6 on one side of the heating chamber 11 and using the two air vents 61 distributed vertically helps to reduce the overall thickness of the cooking appliance 100 without affecting its performance.

[0063] It is understood that the tray 17 is used to place food for heating. Since the space above the tray 17 forms the upper airflow section 621 of the airflow channel, and the gap between the tray 17 and the bottom of the heating chamber 11 forms the lower airflow section 622 of the airflow channel, there is no need to add complex pipes or guide plates to construct the airflow channel. Instead, by utilizing the structural characteristics of the tray 17 and the heating chamber 11 themselves, the tray 17 not only serves as a food support platform but also participates in the construction of the internal airflow path of the cooking appliance 100, simplifying the product structure and reducing manufacturing costs.

[0064] In one embodiment, the cooking appliance 100 includes an oven, a grill, or a stovetop. It is understood that the oven is a kitchen appliance primarily used for baking and roasting food. It is suitable for baking and roasting various foods such as bread, cakes, pizzas, and meats. The grill has the function of heating from both the top and bottom simultaneously, suitable for quickly grilling food. It is suitable for grilling various foods such as steaks, hamburgers, sandwiches, and vegetables. The stovetop is a composite kitchen appliance that integrates the functions of a stove and an oven. It is suitable for various cooking operations such as boiling, stir-frying, frying, and roasting. By integrating different types of heating methods into one device, users can select the most suitable heating mode according to specific cooking needs, saving time and space, improving the overall cooking experience, and significantly reducing the number of required devices, thus saving space.

[0065] The above description is merely an exemplary embodiment of the present utility model and does not limit the patent scope of the present utility model. Any equivalent structural transformations made based on the technical concept of the present utility model and the contents of the present utility model specification and drawings, or direct / indirect applications in other related technical fields, are included within the patent protection scope of the present utility model.
