[0002] In the field of kitchen appliances, electric cookers have become a common appliance for home cooking and dormitory life due to their ease of operation and versatility. Functionally, electric cookers can perform a variety of cooking methods such as boiling, stewing, steaming, and hot pot. Whether it is a nutritious porridge that is quickly cooked in the morning or a heartwarming hot pot to share with friends late at night, they can handle it with ease, greatly enriching people's dietary choices.
[0003] Traditional electric cookers generally suffer from limited functionality, only capable of steaming and boiling, and lacking grilling capabilities. In outdoor camping or family gatherings, users often need to carry multiple devices such as electric cookers and electric grills to simultaneously grill and steam, increasing the burden of carrying them and taking up a lot of storage space. Most products lack proper planning, with power cords haphazardly placed in the gap between the pot and the base, easily causing damage to the cord's outer sheath due to frequent friction during transport. While some products do have storage space, they use a flip-top opening mechanism that requires two hands to operate and has poor sealing, making them prone to accidental opening during transport and affecting the user experience.
[0004] To address these issues, we provide a portable electric cooker. Utility Model Content
[0005] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a portable electric cooker that solves the problems of existing electric cookers having limited functions, being unable to perform grilling, and lacking power cord storage by combining storage components and heating components.
