Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of rice cookers, and in particular to a control structure for a rice cooker with a rice cooking prompt. Background Technology
[0002] Currently, the operation method of mechanical rice cookers on the market is: button-operated (press down). Heating principle: By pressing the "linkage assembly," the magnetic steel assembly is attracted, and the heating plate is powered on and heated. When the magnetic steel assembly reaches a certain temperature, the attraction decreases, the magnetic steel assembly pops open, and the heating plate stops heating. Panel display: Only two indicator lights (heating light and keep-warm light). Structure: Control panel + linkage assembly + magnetic steel assembly + keep-warm assembly + heating plate.
[0003] The existing technology has the following drawbacks:
[0004] 1. The connecting rod may deform or have poor contact with the magnet after long-term use, causing premature power failure and failure to heat up, and the stewing function cannot be realized.
[0005] 2. After a period of use, magnets are prone to demagnetization, which will reduce the accuracy of temperature readings. Utility Model Content
[0006] The purpose of this invention is to provide a rice cooker control structure with a rice cooking prompt, so as to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.
[0007] The technical solution adopted in this utility model is:
[0008] A rice cooker control structure with a rice cooking prompt includes an inner pot and a heating plate disposed at the bottom of the inner pot;
[0009] A snap-on temperature control component is installed at the bottom of the inner liner;
[0010] The rice cooker has a panel installed on its outer wall. The panel has an indicator light inside and an electric timer inside. The output shaft of the electric timer has a push-button switch. The electric timer directly controls the heating plate to be powered on.
[0011] Optionally, the snap-on temperature control assembly includes an outer cup; an aluminum lid disposed inside the outer cup, with its top surface fitting against the bottom surface of the inner liner; a temperature controller pressure plate disposed on the inner side wall of the aluminum lid; a snap-on temperature controller installed inside the aluminum lid via the temperature controller pressure plate, with its top surface connected to the inner top surface of the aluminum lid; and a spring disposed on the outer side wall of the snap-on temperature controller.
[0012] Optionally, the trigger temperature of the sudden temperature control component is 165 degrees Celsius.
[0013] Optionally, there are three indicator lights, namely a heating lamp, a heat preservation lamp, and a simmering lamp.
[0014] Optionally, the electric timer is triggered by a button press.
[0015] Optionally, a heat preservation switch is provided at the bottom of the heating plate.
[0016] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0017] 1. By setting an electric timer, a button switch is installed on the rotating shaft of the electric timer. The rotation of the rotating shaft of the electric timer is controlled by the button switch. Not only can button control be realized, but the synchronous motor structure is simple and will not produce mechanical defects like those of the connecting rod. In addition, the electric timer also has the function of a timer. When the countdown starts, the rice is in the simmering state during the countdown. The temperature is always maintained at the set temperature. The addition of the simmering function makes the rice better and the cooking status indication clearer.
[0018] 2. By setting up a snap-on temperature control component, the snap-on temperature control component replaces the magnet. The snap-on temperature control component has a packaged structure, which has the advantages of being more durable, having more accurate temperature, and having a more durable and stable structure.

[0042] 1. Connect the motor pole + common pole to 220V motor drive, and the button will slowly return to zero;
[0043] 2. The common terminal can be considered as the input terminal;
[0044] 3. The output terminal is the output terminal.
[0045] Working principle of synchronous motor:
