Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of food machinery technology, and more specifically, to a cooking robot with a fully automatic feeding function. Background Technology

[0002] With the continuous advancement of technology, the development of automatic cooking machines is also accelerating. Automatic cooking machines can replace chefs in cooking, boasting a high degree of automation and high efficiency, making them increasingly popular among food manufacturers. The seasoning dispensing device is a structural component in automatic cooking machines that automatically pours seasonings into the wok. The design of this device not only enriches the flavor of the food prepared by the machine but also significantly improves its cooking efficiency.

[0003] As disclosed in patent publication number CN 213371321 U, a fluid seasoning adding system for a stir-fry machine includes a mounting bracket and a pump assembly mounted on the mounting bracket. The pump assembly includes multiple delivery pumps, each having an inlet and an outlet. The inlet of the delivery pump is connected to a feed pipe connector, and the delivery pump is configured to communicate with a seasoning bottle assembly of the stir-fry machine via the feed pipe connector. The outlet of the delivery pump is connected to a discharge pipe connector, and the delivery pump is configured to communicate with a feeding head of the stir-fry machine via the discharge pipe connector. However, this system is designed for adding fluid seasonings, but many seasonings are solid, such as salt, chicken essence, and sugar. This system cannot deliver solid seasonings, which has significant limitations and is not conducive to achieving fully automatic stir-frying. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the shortcomings of the existing technology and provide a cooking robot with a fully automatic feeding function.

[0005] The objective of this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution:

[0013] The beneficial effects of this utility model are mainly reflected in:

[0014] 1. The design is ingenious. The solid powder in the solid seasoning box can be discharged from the outlet of the discharge pipe, and the liquid in the liquid seasoning box can be discharged from the outlet of the liquid discharge pipe. This allows for the addition of liquid and solid seasonings to the ingredients in the wok. The clever layout makes it easy to operate and enables fully automatic addition of seasonings. It has a wide range of applications.

[0015] 2. This utility model adopts a screw drive, which can push the powder in the solid seasoning box step by step, and accurately control the quality of the powder discharged from the discharge pipe. In addition, the baffle can block the powder in the solid seasoning box, prevent the powder from accumulating at the head of the screw, and further control the quality of the powder discharged from the discharge pipe to ensure the quality of the dish.

[0016] 3. The pusher cylinder drives the pusher plate to flip, which can clean the solid seasoning box. The operation is simple and convenient, which greatly improves work efficiency.

[0017] 4. The weighing device can precisely control the weight of the liquid seasoning box to improve the quality of the dishes. Attached Figure Description
