Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of small household appliance technology, and in particular relates to a split-type convenient electric cooker. Background Technology

[0002] In the field of modern kitchen appliances, electric cookers are widely used in homes and restaurants due to their multifunctional cooking capabilities and convenience. Traditional electric cookers mostly adopt an integrated structure design, where the heating base and the inner pot are integrated into the same shell through a fixed connection. When cleaning the inner pot after use, this structure requires immersing the entire pot in water or performing complicated disassembly, which is not only cumbersome but also prone to water entering the heating element and causing a short circuit risk. Especially for cookers with deep inner pots or rounded corners, it is difficult to reach the inner wall corners during cleaning. Long-term use can easily lead to food residue mold and bacterial growth, affecting dietary health.

[0003] As consumers demand a better user experience from kitchen appliances, split-type electric cookers are gradually entering the market. Their core design concept is to separate the inner pot from the heating base, allowing for independent removal and cleaning of the inner pot. However, existing split-type electric cookers still have significant drawbacks in practical applications: On the one hand, the connection structure between the inner pot and the heating base often uses a simple placement method, lacking reliable limiting and fixing components. This leads to the inner pot shifting, shaking, or even falling off the base due to vibrations caused by boiling food during heating, or changes in tilt angle during handling. This not only affects the stability of the cooking process but may also cause safety accidents such as hot soup splashing or damage to the inner pot.

[0004] To address these issues, we offer a modular, easy-to-clean electric cooker. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a modular electric cooker that is easy to clean. By combining the main body of the electric cooker with the limiting and fixing components, the problem of the inconvenience of cleaning electric cookers in the prior art is solved.

[0006] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution.

[0007] This utility model relates to a split-type convenient electric cooker, comprising a cooker body, a limiting and fixing assembly fixedly connected to the surface of the cooker body, the cooker body including an outer shell, a heat insulation plate fixedly connected to the bottom of the inner cavity of the outer shell, a support ring fixedly connected to the inner wall of the outer shell above the heat insulation plate, a heating coil one fixedly connected to the top of the heat insulation plate, a heating coil two fixedly connected to the inner wall of the outer shell, an inner liner inserted into the top of the support ring, a power regulator fixedly connected to the inner cavity of the outer shell below the heat insulation plate, and a connecting post fixedly connected to the bottom of the inner liner. The limiting and fixing assembly includes a drive gear ring mounted on the surface of the outer shell via a bearing, a driven bevel gear meshing with the inner wall of the drive gear ring, a threaded rod fixedly connected to the surface of the driven bevel gear, the threaded rod being fixedly connected to the inner wall of the outer shell via a bearing, a threaded tube threadedly connected to the surface of the threaded rod, and the other end of the threaded tube extending to the other side of the connecting post.

[0008] The present invention is further configured such that a mounting groove is provided on the surface of the outer shell, and the top and bottom of the inner cavity of the drive gear ring are fixedly connected to the inner wall of the mounting groove through bearings. The mounting groove provides a stable rotation space for the drive gear ring, and the bearing connection reduces rotational resistance, making the operation smoother.

[0009] The present invention is further configured such that a mounting hole is provided through the mounting groove and the inner cavity of the outer shell, and the threaded rod is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the mounting hole through a bearing. The design of the mounting hole ensures that the threaded rod can stably support and transmit torque, while avoiding friction with the outer shell and extending its service life.

[0010] The present invention is further provided that a handle is fixedly connected to the top of one side of the outer shell surface, and an anti-slip pad is fixedly connected to the bottom of the outer shell. The ergonomic design of the handle makes it easy for users to move the electric cooker, and the anti-slip pad can increase the friction with the table surface and prevent slipping during use.

[0011] The present invention is further configured such that a power adjustment knob is fixedly connected to the bottom of the outer shell surface. The power adjustment knob is electrically connected to a power regulator via a wire. The power regulator is electrically connected to heating coil one and heating coil two via a wire. The cooperation between the power adjustment knob and the power regulator allows for flexible adjustment of the heating power according to cooking needs, thereby achieving precise temperature control.

[0012] The present invention is further configured such that the top of the support ring has a through hole for the connecting column, and the surface of the connecting column has a pin hole for the threaded tube. The corresponding design of the through hole and the pin hole ensures that the connecting column and the threaded tube can be accurately connected, providing a basis for the stable fixation of the inner liner.

[0013] The present invention is further configured such that a limiting groove is provided at the bottom of the support ring and at the top of the inner cavity of the pin hole, and a limiting block is slidably connected to the inner cavity of the limiting groove. The other side of the limiting block is fixedly connected to the threaded tube. The sliding cooperation between the limiting groove and the limiting block can prevent the threaded tube from shifting during movement and ensure that it is accurately inserted into the pin hole.

[0014] The present invention is further provided that the top of the inner pot is covered with a pot lid, and the top of the pot lid is fixedly connected to a handle by bolts. The combination design of the pot lid and the handle makes it convenient for users to put on and take off the pot lid, while preventing burns and improving the safety of use.

[0015] The present invention has the following beneficial effects.

[0016] 1. This utility model features a split design that separates the inner pot from the outer shell, allowing users to directly remove the inner pot for thorough cleaning. This avoids the risk of water splashing into the heating element during cleaning of traditional integrated electric cookers. The connecting post, support ring, and through hole at the bottom of the inner pot work together to ensure accurate positioning after installation. The limiting and fixing component uses a threaded tube passing through the pin hole of the connecting post to securely lock the inner pot to the outer shell, effectively preventing the inner pot from accidentally falling off during use. At the same time, the heat insulation plate on the inner wall of the outer shell reduces heat transfer to the bottom power regulator, extending the appliance's lifespan and improving safety.

[0017] 2. The meshing structure of the drive gear ring and driven bevel gear in this utility model allows users to drive multiple sets of threaded tubes to move simultaneously simply by rotating the drive gear ring on the surface of the outer shell, thus achieving quick locking and unlocking of the inner pot. This design not only simplifies the operation process, but also effectively limits the displacement of the inner pot in the horizontal and vertical directions through the tight fit between the threaded tubes and the pin holes, ensuring that the inner pot is stable and does not shake during cooking. Even if the electric cooker is tilted during transportation, the inner pot will not fall off, avoiding the safety hazards caused by soup splashing, and improving the practicality and reliability of the product.
