[0037] The embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below, examples of which are shown in the accompanying drawings. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and intended to explain the present invention, and should not be construed as limiting the present invention.

[0038] like Figures 1-5 As shown, the cooking appliance of this embodiment includes a pot body 1, a heating assembly 2, and a base 3. The heating assembly 2 includes a heating element 21 and a reflector 22. The heating element 21 is disposed below the pot body 1 for heating the pot body 1. The reflector 22 is disposed below the heating element 21. The top surface of the reflector 22 has a first drain hole 221 and a second drain hole 222. There is a height difference between the top surface of the first drain hole 221 and the top surface of the second drain hole 222. The base 3 has a water outlet 31. The reflector 22 is disposed on the base 3, and the water outlet 31 communicates with the first drain hole 221 and the second drain hole 222.

[0039] In this embodiment of the cooking appliance, water on the reflector plate 22 can be discharged through the higher drain hole on the top surface of the first drain hole 221 and the second drain hole 222. When there is a lot of water on the reflector plate 22 and the higher drain hole on the top surface cannot drain the water in time, the excess water can flow into the lower drain hole on the top surface of the first drain hole 221 and the second drain hole 222, so that the reflector plate 22 can achieve dual drainage, improve drainage efficiency, effectively prevent water on the reflector plate 22 from contacting the heating element 21, make the heating element 21 less likely to come into contact with water, avoid short circuits or poor voltage resistance of electrical components, ensure the normal operation of the heating element 21, and improve the safety of use.

[0040] Specifically, the top surface of the first drain hole 221 is lower than the top surface of the second drain hole 222. When the water on the reflector plate 22 fills the top surface of the second drain hole 222, the water can flow into the top surface of the first drain hole 221, thus preventing the water from contacting the heating element 21 and ensuring the safety and satisfaction of the user.

[0041] Optionally, such as Figures 1-4 As shown, there is a height difference between the bottom surface of the first drain hole 221 and the bottom surface of the second drain hole 222.

[0042] Specifically, the bottom surface of the first drain hole 221 is lower than the bottom surface of the second drain hole 222, and there is a large space between the reflector 22 and the base 3, which facilitates the installation of the internal components of the base 3. Moreover, the reflector 22 saves material costs when it is manufactured.

[0043] Optionally, such as Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the top surface of the reflector 22 is provided with a groove 223. The groove 223 has a bottom surface 2231 and a peripheral surface 2232. The peripheral surface 2232 is connected to the outer periphery of the bottom surface 2231. The first water leakage hole 221 is provided on the bottom surface 2231.

[0044] Specifically, the groove 223 is formed by the top surface of the reflector 22 being recessed towards the bottom surface of the reflector 22. The groove 223 facilitates the collection of water on the reflector 22 and discharges it through the first drainage hole 221 on the bottom surface 2231 of the groove, thereby improving drainage efficiency.

[0045] Optionally, such as Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the groove circumferential surface 2232 is provided with a protrusion 224, the protrusion 224 and the first water leakage hole 221 are arranged at intervals, and the second water leakage hole 222 is provided on the top of the protrusion 224.

[0046] Specifically, the protrusion 224 protrudes from the circumferential surface 2232 of the groove toward the center of the reflector plate 22. The top of the protrusion 224 is higher than the bottom surface 2231 of the groove. The second drain hole 222 is located on the top of the protrusion 224 so that the top surface of the second drain hole 222 is higher than the top surface of the first drain hole 221. When water flows along the circumferential surface 2232 of the groove toward the bottom surface 2231 of the groove, the water first passes through the protrusion 224 and is discharged through the second drain hole 222. The water flowing into the bottom surface 2231 of the groove can be discharged through the first drain hole 221, thereby improving the drainage efficiency.

[0047] Optionally, such as Figures 2-4 As shown, the top surface of the protrusion 224 is provided with a recess 225, the bottom surface of the recess 225 is higher than the bottom surface of the groove 2231, and the second water leakage hole 222 is provided on the bottom surface of the recess 225.

[0048] Specifically, the recess 225 is formed by the top surface of the protrusion 224 recessing towards the bottom surface of the protrusion 224. The recess 225 facilitates the collection of water on the circumferential surface 2232 of the tank and discharges it through the second drain hole 222 on the top surface of the protrusion 224, thereby improving drainage efficiency.

[0049] Optionally, such as Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the top surface of the reflector 22 is provided with an annular recess 226, which surrounds the groove 223 and is connected to the recess 225.

[0050] Specifically, the annular recess 226 is arranged around the groove 223, and the bottom surface of the annular recess 226 has a height difference with the bottom surface of the groove 223. The annular recess 226 facilitates the collection of water flowing into the reflector 22. The bottom surface of the annular recess 226 is higher than the bottom surface of the groove 223 and is roughly flush with the bottom surface of the recess 225, which facilitates the flow of water in the annular recess 226 into the recess 225 and out through the second drain hole 222, improving drainage efficiency. When the annular recess 226 is full of water, the water can flow into the groove 223 and out through the first drain hole 221, preventing the water on the reflector 22 from contacting the heating element 21 and ensuring the normal operation of the heating element 21.

[0051] Optionally, such as Figure 3 As shown, there are multiple protrusions 224, which are arranged at intervals along the circumferential surface 2232 of the groove. There are multiple second drainage holes 222, which correspond one-to-one with the multiple protrusions 224.

[0052] Specifically, multiple protrusions 224 are evenly spaced along the circumferential surface 2232 of the groove, and multiple second drainage holes 222 are set one-to-one with multiple protrusions 224 to improve drainage efficiency, make the heating element 21 less likely to come into contact with water, and improve the safety of use.

[0053] Optionally, such as Figure 3 As shown, there are multiple first water leakage holes 221, which are arranged at intervals around the reflector plate 22. The center of at least one first water leakage hole 221, the center of the second water leakage hole 222, and the center of the reflector plate 22 are collinear.

[0054] Specifically, multiple first drainage holes 221 are evenly spaced along the circumference of the reflector plate 22 on the bottom surface 2231 of the tank to improve drainage efficiency, prevent water accumulation on the reflector plate 22, ensure the normal operation of the heating element 21, and improve the safety of use.

[0055] Optionally, such as Figure 2 As shown, the bottom surface of the reflector 22 has a first guide portion 227, which is arranged around the first water leakage hole 221.

[0056] Specifically, the first guide part 227 can guide the water on the bottom surface 2231 of the tank to ensure that the water flowing out through the first drain hole 221 does not easily overflow.

[0057] Optionally, such as Figure 2 As shown, the bottom surface of the reflector 22 has a second guide portion 228, which is arranged around the second water leakage hole 222.

[0058] Specifically, the second guide portion 228 can guide the water in the recess 225 to ensure that the water flowing out through the second drain hole 222 does not easily overflow.

[0059] Optionally, such as Figure 5 As shown, the cooking appliance also includes a guide 4, which is disposed inside the base 3 and located between the reflector 22 and the inner bottom surface of the base 3. The guide 4 is correspondingly disposed at the bottom of the first drain hole 221 and / or the second drain hole 222. The guide 4 has a through hole 41, the top end of which communicates with the corresponding drain hole, and the bottom end of which communicates with the water outlet 31.

[0060] Specifically, the heat deformation temperature of the guide 4 is higher than that of the inner bottom surface of the base 3. By setting the guide 4 to isolate the reflector 22 and the inner bottom surface of the base 3, the base 3 is less likely to melt when the heating element 21 is continuously heating and the temperature of the reflector 22 is high, thus ensuring the service life and safety and reliability of the base 3 and improving customer satisfaction.

[0061] Specifically, when the guide 4 is provided at the bottom of the first drain hole 221, the upper end of the guide 4 cooperates with the first guide part 227 to facilitate the flow of water in the first drain hole 221 into the guide 4 and prevent water from overflowing. The guide 4 guides the water in the first guide part 227 to improve drainage efficiency and facilitate the discharge of water from the bottom surface 2231 of the tank through the first drain hole 221.

[0062] When a guide 4 is provided at the bottom of the second drain hole 222, the upper end of the guide 4 cooperates with the second guide portion 228 to facilitate the flow of water in the second drain hole 222 into the guide 4 and prevent water from overflowing. The guide 4 guides the water in the second guide portion 228 to improve drainage efficiency and facilitate the discharge of water from the recess 225 through the second drain hole 222.

[0063] Optionally, such as Figure 5 As shown, the inner bottom surface of the base 3 has an upwardly extending water inlet 32, which is arranged circumferentially around the water outlet 31, and at least a portion of the water inlet 32 ​​engages with the lower end of the guide member 4.

[0064] Specifically, the guide 4 is more heat resistant than the water inlet 32. The upper end of the water inlet 32 ​​cooperates with the lower end of the guide 4, which strengthens the connection between the guide 4 and the base 3. Moreover, the water inlet 32 ​​can guide the water in the guide 4, so that the water in the guide 4 can be discharged from the water outlet 31 and is not easy to flow into the base 3.
