[0022] like Figures 1-5As shown, a bowl-steamed tofu pudding machine includes a housing 1 made of stainless steel plate and filled with insulation material. For easy movement, casters 2 are installed at the bottom of the housing 1. The housing 1 is a hollow structure with an opening on one side. A front door 12 is hinged to the opening side of the housing 1. A water tank 3 is located at the bottom of the inner cavity of the housing 1. An electric heating module 4 is installed inside the water tank 3, including a thermostat and an electric heating element. A support frame 6 is placed inside the water tank 3. Two sets of support bars 7 are symmetrically formed on the inner wall of the housing 1, with each set of support bars 7 evenly spaced. The distance from the upper surface of the support frame 6 to the lowest support bar 7 is... The distance between the upper surfaces is the same as the spacing between two adjacent support bars 7. Several placement shelves 8 are placed sequentially on the support base 6 and support bars 7 inside the box 1. A bowl containing tofu pudding is placed between two adjacent placement shelves 8. The height of the bowl is the same as the spacing between the upper and lower placement shelves 8, allowing for continuous vertical stacking of one bowl and one placement shelf 8, which improves the space utilization within the box 1. Simultaneously, the placement shelves 8 pressing against the upper surface of the bowls reduce water vapor entering the bowls, preventing excessive moisture and the need for extensive rinsing later. A controller 11 for controlling the cooking process is installed at the top of the box 1. The controller 11 includes a microprocessor electrically connected to the electric heating module 4 and a human-machine interface control module. The control module includes control buttons and a display screen. The control buttons allow setting parameters such as cooking time and holding temperature, and also control the heating temperature of the electric heating module 4. The display screen, temperature display, voltage and current display, or other instruments allow users to view the parameters during the cooking process. The controller 11, which controls the electric heating module 4 for timed heating, is existing technology with many alternatives, which will not be described in detail in this application. Furthermore, the controller enables automated control of the tofu pudding cooking process, eliminating the need for manual labor. A great deal of effort is devoted to controlling the processing of tofu pudding. The shelf 8 is made of two aluminum plates with a thickness of not less than 2mm spliced ​​together. A window is opened on the front door 12, and the individual plates that make up the shelf 8 can pass through the window to facilitate the removal of the plates without bowls on the surface, making it easy to remove the bowls below. A retrieval box door 13 is hinged and fixed on the outer wall of the front door 12 at the position corresponding to the window. The area of ​​the retrieval box door 13 is less than 1 / 3 of the area of ​​the front door 12. Each time a bowl containing tofu pudding is taken out, only the retrieval box door 13 needs to be opened, without opening the front door 12, reducing the loss of heat inside the box 1 and ensuring the taste of the tofu pudding.

[0023] In this embodiment, in order to facilitate the replenishment of water to the water storage tank 3, an inlet pipe is fixed on the lower side wall of the tank body 1, which leads into the water storage tank 3. An automatic water replenishment float valve 5 is installed at one end of the inlet pipe located in the water storage tank 3. In order to avoid excessive steam pressure in the inner cavity of the tank body 1, an exhaust valve 10 communicating with the inner cavity of the tank body 1 is fixed on the upper side wall of the tank body 1.

[0024] In this embodiment, at least two rear baffles 9 are fixed on the inner wall of the inner cavity of the box 1 away from the front door 12. The rear baffles 9 are vertically arranged and symmetrically arranged on the inner wall of the box 1. The rear baffles 9 ensure that the shelf 8 will not contact the inner side wall of the box 1 when it is placed, leaving gaps. Hot steam can rise through the gaps and contact all the bowls to cook the raw materials in the bowls.

[0025] In this embodiment, in order to enable the operator to monitor the temperature inside the chamber 1 at any time, a thermometer 16 and a pressure gauge 17 for detecting the internal state of the chamber 1 are installed on the side wall of the front door 12.

[0026] In this embodiment, in order to ensure sealing during the cooking process, the front door 12 is installed together with the box body 1 by the first latch 14, and a sealing strip is provided on the surface of the front door 12 that contacts the box body 1. The retrieval box door 13 is installed together with the front door 12 by the second latch 15, and a sealing strip is provided on the surface of the front door 12 that contacts the retrieval box door 13.

[0027] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: When making tofu pudding, a certain amount of water is injected into the water storage tank 3, and then the support base 6 is placed in the water storage tank 3. A placement shelf 8 composed of two aluminum plates is placed on top of the support base 6. Then, bowls containing tofu pudding are placed on the placement shelf 8 one by one. After placing one layer of bowls, another layer of placement shelf 8 is placed on top of the bowls. Several layers of bowls are placed inside the box 1 in this way. Then, the front box door 12 is closed and the first latch 14 is used to complete the sealing. The electric heating module 4 is started by the controller 11 to heat the water inside the water storage tank 3 to complete the steaming of the tofu pudding. After the set time is reached, the heating is stopped and the box enters the heat preservation state. At this time, it can be sold. When selling tofu pudding, the top bowl containing tofu pudding can be taken out by opening the retrieval box door 13 each time. After taking it out, the retrieval box door 13 can be closed. When all the bowls of tofu pudding on an aluminum plate are taken out, the aluminum plate can be taken out from the window corresponding to the retrieval box door 13 to avoid affecting the retrieval of the tofu pudding below the aluminum plate.

[0028] The circuit connection involved in this utility model is a common method used by those skilled in the art, and technical inspiration can be obtained through a limited number of experiments. It belongs to the widely used prior art.

[0029] Components not described in detail in this article are existing technologies.
