[0017] Example 1
[0018] like Figure 1 As shown, a seafood steamer includes a main cabinet 1, an equipment box 5, and a control cabinet 6. The main cabinet 1 and the control cabinet 6 are located above the equipment box 5, and the main cabinet 1, the equipment box 5, and the control cabinet 6 form an integrated structure.
[0019] Among them, such as Figure 1 As shown, the main cabinet 1 is equipped with N steam chambers 101. Each steam chamber 101 is equipped with a reversible cabinet door 2. The cabinet door 2 is equipped with a handle 3. The cabinet door 2 and the main cabinet 1 are equipped with corresponding latches 4. The latches 4 connect the cabinet door 2 to the main cabinet 1 to ensure the airtightness of the steam chamber 101.
[0020] In addition, the main cabinet 1 has a built-in buffer cabinet 9, such as Figure 2 As shown, each of the N steam chambers 101 is connected to the buffer cabinet 9 via a steam switch 8, which is controlled by an operation panel 602 on the control cabinet 6. By opening the corresponding steam switch 8 via the operation panel 602, the steam in the buffer cabinet 9 can enter the corresponding steam chamber 101 through the steam switch 8, thus achieving individual control of the N steam chambers 101.
[0021] The control panel 602 includes a steam switch button, a timer display screen, and function buttons. The steam switch button controls the corresponding steam switch 8; the function buttons select the steam time for the corresponding dish or automatically adjust the steam time; the timer display screen can display the countdown or the countdown according to the usage requirements.
[0022] Both the main cabinet 1 and the buffer cabinet 9 are equipped with steam pressure relief ports 7. When the steam pressure is too high, it can be relieved through the steam pressure relief ports 7 to avoid safety accidents caused by excessive steam pressure.
[0023] like Figure 2 As shown, the equipment box 5 is equipped with a steam generation chamber 10, a water supply tank 11, a burner 12, an electric valve 13, a dirt processor 14, and a combustion control box 15.
[0024] The steam generating chamber 10 is connected to the buffer cabinet 9, the burner 12, and the water supply tank 11. The water supply tank 11 fills the steam generating chamber 10 with water, and the burner 12 heats the water to generate steam in the steam generating chamber 10. The steam is then passed through the buffer cabinet 9 and enters the corresponding steam chamber 101 by opening the steam switch 8.
[0025] Furthermore, the burner 12 is connected to the combustion control box 15, and the combustion control box 15 is connected to the control panel 601 of the control cabinet 6. The control panel 601 controls the combustion control box 15 to drive the burner 12 for combustion heating.
