[0002] A toaster, also known as an automatic bread toaster or bread oven, is an electric cooking appliance specifically designed to re-toast sliced bread. Currently, most toasters on the market do not have a steam humidification function and can only dry-toast bread slices, resulting in bread slices that are dry, hard, and have a poor texture.
[0003] Utility model patent CN212037244U discloses a steam toaster, comprising: a heating element including a heating plate and heating wires disposed on the heating plate; a humidification element including a water pipe, a steam water tank connected to the water pipe, and a steam heating tube for heating the steam water tank; and a shell, in which the heating element and humidification element are disposed, and a reflector is disposed below the steam heating tube. This prior art design, with the baking rack, heating element, and humidification element disposed within the shell, and the steam water tank, steam heating tube, and reflector sequentially assembled from top to bottom below the baking rack within the shell, results in a complex structure, difficult assembly, and the generated steam rises naturally without a jet function, leading to poor humidification.
[0004] Therefore, there is still room for improvement and development in existing technologies. Utility Model Content
[0005] To address the problem that existing technologies produce steam that rises naturally without a jetting function, resulting in poor humidification, this invention provides a toaster with a steam jetting function.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution applied in this utility model is as follows:
[0007] A toaster with steam injection function includes:
[0008] The base has a housing fixed on it, and a heating component and a baking rack are fixed inside the housing. The heating component and the baking rack are arranged correspondingly. The baking rack has multiple bread baking slots. When baking bread slices, the bread slices are placed on the bread baking slots and baked by heating through the heating component.
[0009] A steam injection device includes a steam supply component and a steam ejection pipe. The steam supply component is fixed to a base and located on one side of the housing. The steam ejection pipe is fixed inside the housing and connected to the steam ejection pipe. The steam ejection pipe is correspondingly positioned with the bread baking tray. When humidifying bread slices, the steam generated by the steam supply component is injected through the steam ejection pipe to humidify the bread slices located in the bread baking tray, resulting in better humidification and giving the baked bread slices a crispy exterior and soft interior. Fixing the steam supply component to the base on one side of the housing, and fixing the steam ejection pipe, heating element, and baking rack inside the housing, simplifies the structure and makes assembly easier.
[0010] According to the above scheme, the heating steam assembly includes a water storage tank, a steam generator, and an electromagnetic pump. The water storage tank is connected to the inlet of the electromagnetic pump via a water pipe, and the outlet of the electromagnetic pump is connected to the steam generator via a water pipe. The steam generator is connected to the steam ejection pipe via a steam delivery pipe. With this configuration, when the electromagnetic pump is working, water from the storage tank is drawn in through water pipe one and then guided into the steam generator through water pipe two. Steam is generated by the steam generator, and the steam is then guided through the steam delivery pipe to the steam ejection pipe for ejection. This configuration results in higher steam generation efficiency, and the electromagnetic pump also provides a higher steam injection pressure, leading to higher humidification efficiency.
[0011] According to the above scheme, the steam ejector pipe is located below the baking rack, and the steam ejector pipe is provided with multiple steam nozzles corresponding to the bread baking tray. With this configuration, the steam generated by the hot steam generator is guided into the steam ejector pipe and then ejected through the steam nozzles to humidify the bread slices located in the bread baking tray. The steam injection pressure is greater, improving the humidification efficiency.
[0012] According to the above scheme, the heating steam assembly is fixed to the base by a mounting bracket, with the heating steam assembly located on the first side of the housing. The water storage tank is fixed above the mounting bracket, and the steam generator and electromagnetic pump are fixed below the mounting bracket. This arrangement makes efficient use of the installation space and facilitates assembly.
[0013] According to the above scheme, the heating assembly includes a heating plate and a second mounting bracket. Both ends of the heating plate are fixed inside the housing via the second mounting bracket, and the heating plate is located on both sides of the baking rack. This configuration facilitates assembly and improves heating efficiency.
[0014] According to the above scheme, the bread baking oven is equipped with a bread lifting rack, which is driven to rise and fall by a drive assembly. This configuration allows the bread lifting rack to extend the baked bread out of the oven via the drive assembly.
[0015] According to the above scheme, the drive assembly is fixed on the base and located on the second side of the housing. The drive assembly includes a motor, a screw, and a nut seat. The motor output end is fixedly connected to the screw, the screw is threadedly connected to the nut seat, and the nut seat is fixedly connected to the bread lifting frame. With this configuration, the motor drives the screw to rotate forward and backward, causing the screw and nut seat to move threadedly, which in turn causes the nut seat to lift the bread lifting frame.
[0016] According to the above scheme, a guide rod is fixed between the base and the housing, and the nut seat is provided with a guide hole that is slidably connected to the guide rod. This arrangement makes the lifting and lowering of the nut seat more stable under the action of the guide rod and the guide hole.
[0017] According to the above scheme, the housing is provided with an upper travel limiting plate corresponding to the nut seat, and the base is provided with a lower travel limiting plate corresponding to the nut seat. This configuration limits the lifting and lowering stroke of the nut seat using the upper and lower travel limiting plates.
[0018] The above solution also includes a control panel, which has multiple control knobs. This design makes operation convenient.
[0019] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0020] This invention is designed so that when humidifying bread slices, the steam generated by the heating steam component is sprayed onto the bread slices located in the bread baking chamber through the steam jet pipe, resulting in better humidification and giving the baked bread slices a crispy exterior and soft interior texture. The heating steam component is fixed to the base on one side of the housing, and the steam jet pipe, heating component, and baking rack are fixed inside the housing, making the structure simpler and easier to assemble.
