In use, the materials to be cooked, such as sunflower seeds and star anise, are placed into the filter frame 13, and then the filter frame 13 is placed into the cooking pot 10. The sunflower seeds are then cooked through the cooking pot 10 to infuse them with flavor.
[0017] Among them, the base 14 is provided with support structures 9 on both sides of the cooking pot 13. The top of the support structure 9 is provided with a horizontal guide structure. Specifically, the support structure 9 includes two side plates fixed on both sides of the surface of the base 14. The top of the two side plates is fixed with a top plate. The horizontal guide structure is set on the top plate, and the horizontal guide structure is provided with a lifting drive device 100 that can move along its front and back direction. The lifting drive device 100 is connected to the pot lid 15 and is used to drive the pot lid 15 to move up and down in the vertical direction. The pot lid 15 is provided with a connecting device for detachably connecting with the filter frame 13.
[0018] With the above structure, when the filter frame 13 needs to be placed into the cooking pot 10, first place the filter frame 13 at the front end of the base 14, put the melon seeds to be cooked into the filter frame 13, drive the pot lid 15 down through the lifting drive device 100 and connect the filter frame 13 to the pot lid 15 through the connecting device 200, and then drive the pot lid 15 to move through the lifting drive device 100 to put the filter frame 13 into the cooking pot 10 and make the pot lid 15 cover the mouth of the cooking pot 10.
[0019] The connecting device includes a driving element mounted on the pot lid 15. The output end of the driving element is connected to a rotating component 17.
