[0001] This application relates to the technical field of heated steam cabinets, and in particular to a multifunctional, rapid-heating, energy-saving steam cabinet. Background Technology

[0002] Steaming is a cooking method with a long history. In the early days, people used earthenware or bronze steamers, heating water at the bottom to generate steam to cook food. Later, steamers appeared, usually made of bamboo, wood, or other materials, and often had a multi-layered structure, allowing multiple foods to be steamed at the same time. These traditional steaming devices laid the foundation for the development of modern steam cabinets, and their multi-layered design and steam utilization principles have been inherited and developed in steam cabinets.

[0003] Regarding the aforementioned technologies, the inventors have discovered the following defects: In the prior art, the steam in the steamer is ejected in a straight line, which may lead to uneven steam diffusion and uneven heating of the food. This may result in the food near or far from the steam outlet or the steam concentration area being overcooked, becoming mushy or undercooked and having a poor taste. Utility Model Content

[0009] Optionally, there are several air outlets, an air outlet plate is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the connecting pipe, and the number of air outlet plates is several. The several air outlet plates are arranged in a ring array. A heating chamber is provided below the partition, a heating rod is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the heating chamber, and a water injection pipe is fixedly connected to the left side of the heating chamber.

[0010] Optionally, the top of the housing is provided with an assembly slot, an electric push rod is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the assembly slot, a push rod is fixedly connected to the bottom output end of the electric push rod, and a moving plate is fixedly connected to the bottom of the push rod.

[0013] In summary, this application includes the following beneficial technical effects:

[0014] 1. This utility model incorporates components such as a motor, a rotating column, and a bevel gear. The motor's activation causes the rotating column to drive the bevel gear, which in turn drives a rotating fan and a rotating cylinder. This causes steam in the heating chamber to be ejected from the vent at the top of the rotating cylinder under the rotation of the fan. The connecting pipe and the rotation of the cylinder cause the steam to rotate and be ejected. When the steam is ejected, centrifugal force is generated, causing the steam to diffuse evenly in all directions on the rotating plane. This prevents uneven steam diffusion within the chamber, which could lead to overcooking of food near or far from the steam outlet or the steam concentration area, resulting in overcooked or undercooked food with a poor texture.

[0015] 2. This utility model incorporates components such as an electric push rod, a moving plate, and a scraper. The electric push rod activates the moving plate, causing it to move downwards. Because the scraper is angled downwards, water droplets scraped from the inner wall of the chamber are drawn down by gravity along the scraper and into the lower water tank. Since the lower water tank is inclined towards the outlet, condensate flows through the outlet and filter into the heating chamber, where it is reheated into steam to reheat the food inside the chamber. This not only reduces water waste but also cleans the inner wall of the chamber. Attached Figure Description

The scraper 33 is set at an angle downwards near the electric push rod 3, which can gather water droplets at this position and facilitate the downward flow of water droplets. A fixing rod 34 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the box 1. A water trough 341 is opened at the top of the fixing rod 34, and a water outlet 35 is opened on the back of the box 1.

[0026] Please see Figure 2 As shown, the top of the connecting column 221 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the rotating cylinder 231, the top of the partition 14 is fixedly connected to the fixing ring 23, the outer wall of the fixing ring 23 is provided with a rotating groove, the inner wall of the rotating groove is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the fixing ring 23, and the rotating cylinder 231 is provided with an air outlet.

[0027] Please see Figure 3 As shown, the top of the box 1 has an assembly slot, and an electric push rod 3 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the assembly slot. A push rod 31 is fixedly connected to the bottom output end of the electric push rod 3. The outer walls of the electric push rod 3 and the push rod are coated with a ceramic coating. This coating is generally composed of inorganic ceramic materials and organic resin, and has the characteristics of being waterproof, wear-resistant, and high temperature resistant. It can withstand temperatures above 300°C. Its surface is smooth, does not easily absorb oil and moisture, and does not contain harmful substances such as heavy metals, which can provide a safe cooking environment for food. A movable plate 311 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the push rod 31.

[0028] Please see Figure 5 As shown, a filter tube 351 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the water outlet 35. The filter tube contains activated carbon, diatomaceous earth, microfiltration membrane, etc., so that it can filter water droplets on the inner wall of the box 1. A slot is opened on the back of the box 1 near the water outlet 35. The inner wall of the slot is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the air outlet plate 251 away from the water outlet 35.

[0029] Please see Figure 2 As shown, bevel gear 211 is meshed with bevel gear 22 at its top. The outer walls of bevel gear 211, bevel gear 22 and connecting column 221 are all coated with a food-grade waterproof coating to prevent them from being corroded by water and to ensure food safety. The top of bevel gear 22 is fixedly connected to the connecting column 221. The top of the rotating fan 222 has an assembly hole, and the inner wall of the assembly hole is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the connecting column 221.

[0030] Please see Figure 3As shown, there are several air vents, and an air vent plate 251 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the connecting pipe 25. The number of air vent plates 251 is several, and the several air vent plates 251 are arranged in a ring array. A heating chamber 24 is arranged below the partition 14. A heating rod 241 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the heating chamber 24, and a water injection pipe 13 is fixedly connected to the left side of the heating chamber 24.

[0031] The implementation principle of a multifunctional rapid heating energy-saving steamer according to an embodiment of this application is as follows: First, water is injected into the heating chamber 24 through the water injection pipe 13. Then, the motor 2 is started, causing the rotating column 21 to drive the bevel gear 211 to rotate. While the bevel gear 211 is rotating, it will drive the bevel gear 22 to rotate. The rotation of the bevel gear 22 will cause the connecting column 221 to drive the rotating fan 222 and the rotating cylinder 231 to rotate. The rotation of the rotating fan 222 and the rotating cylinder 231 will cause the steam in the heating chamber 24 to fill with steam under the heating of several heating rods 241. Then, under the rotation of the rotating fan 222 and the rotating cylinder 231, the steam will be ejected from the air outlet at the top of the rotating cylinder 231. With the connection pipe 25 and the rotation of the rotating cylinder 231, the steam will also be ejected from the air outlet plate 251. When the steam is ejected, centrifugal force will be generated, causing the steam to spread evenly in all directions on the rotating plane. At the same time, the rotational motion will also drive the steam to rotate outwards. The surrounding airflow creates a certain airflow field, which helps to further disperse and evenly distribute the steam, preventing uneven steam diffusion in the chamber 1 from causing food near or far from the steam outlet or the steam concentration area to become overcooked, resulting in soft or undercooked food with a poor taste. The activation of the electric push rod 3 causes the push rod 31 to move the moving plate 311 downward. When the moving plate 311 moves downward, it will drive the scraper 1 32 and scraper 2 33 to move synchronously. Since scraper 2 33 is set at an angle downward, the water droplets scraped on the inner wall of the chamber 1 will be affected by gravity and flow along the scraper 2 33 and the inner wall of the chamber 1 into the water tank 341. Since the water tank 341 is set at an angle towards the water outlet 35, the condensate will flow into the heating chamber 24 after being filtered through the water outlet 35 and the filter pipe 351, so that it can be reheated into steam to heat the food inside the chamber 1. This not only reduces the waste of water resources, but also cleans the inner wall of the chamber 1.

[0032] The above are all preferred embodiments of this application, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this application. Therefore, all equivalent changes made in accordance with the structure, shape and principle of this application should be covered within the scope of protection of this application.
