[0002] Plant-based protein foods have become an important direction for food technology innovation in recent years, driven by multiple factors including the upgrading of health consumption, the demand for environmental sustainability, and technological innovation. Soy protein, pea protein, chickpea protein, and mushroom protein are all excellent raw materials. The rise of using plant-based protein ingredients to make cold dishes stems primarily from global health and environmental concerns. Epidemiological studies show a positive correlation between excessive consumption of traditional animal meat and the risk of cardiovascular disease, while the zero-cholesterol and low-saturated-fat characteristics of plant proteins offer a healthy alternative.

[0003] When preparing cold dishes, plant-based proteins need to be cooked using a cooking device. Traditional cooking devices are mostly non-frequency-controlled, which makes precise temperature control impossible. Precise temperature control is crucial for improving the taste and quality of the ingredients. Furthermore, traditional devices cannot quickly remove the hot ingredients, requiring manual removal by operators, which is dangerous. Therefore, this invention proposes a frequency-controlled temperature-controlled plant-based protein cooking device to address the shortcomings of existing technologies. Summary of the Invention

[0004] To address the aforementioned issues, the purpose of this invention is to provide a variable frequency temperature-controlled plant-based protein cooking device. Utilizing variable frequency heating technology to heat the inside of the cooking pot, it enables precise temperature control of the raw materials within a set range. This accurate temperature control improves the cooking quality and taste of the raw materials. A lifting mechanism elevates the mesh-enclosed pot, allowing the raw materials inside to quickly exit the cooking pot, preventing overheating of the lower part of the mesh-enclosed pot due to slow discharge, which could negatively impact quality.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:

[0006] A variable frequency temperature-controlled plant-based protein cooking device includes a base, an outer shell, a cooking pot, and a mesh-lined inner pot. The base has an outer shell on top, and the cooking pot is located inside the outer shell. An installation cavity is formed between the outer shell and the cooking pot. A lifting mechanism is located within the installation cavity. The cooking pot has a mesh-lined inner pot inside, and a ring plate is located on the upper outer wall of the mesh-lined inner pot. The bottom of the ring plate is connected to the lifting mechanism. A sealing seat is located on the upper outer wall of the outer shell, and a sealing cover is located on top of the outer shell. The sealing cover and the sealing seat are detachably connected. A variable frequency heating module is located at the bottom inside the cooking pot.

[0014] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: This utility model uses a variable frequency heating module installed at the bottom of the cooking pot to heat the inside of the pot, enabling precise temperature control of the raw materials within a set range. This precise temperature control improves the cooking quality and taste of the raw materials. Furthermore, by installing a lifting mechanism connected to a ring plate on the mesh-filled inner pot body within the mounting cavity between the outer shell and the cooking pot, the mesh-filled inner pot body can be lifted after cooking, allowing the raw materials inside to be quickly discharged. This avoids overheating of the raw materials at the bottom of the mesh-filled inner pot body due to slow discharge, thus preventing quality issues. During the discharge process, personnel do not need to be in prolonged contact with the heat source generated by the cooking pot, ensuring high safety.

[0022] To enhance understanding of this utility model, the following detailed description will be provided in conjunction with embodiments. These embodiments are for illustrative purposes only and do not constitute a limitation on the scope of protection of this utility model.

[0023] according to Figure 1-5 As shown, this embodiment proposes a variable frequency temperature-controlled plant-based protein cooking device, including a base 1, a shell 2, a cooking pot 3, and a mesh-enclosed pot body 4. The base 1 has a shell 2 on top, and the cooking pot 3 is located inside the shell 2. An installation cavity is formed between the shell 2 and the cooking pot 3. A lifting mechanism is provided in the installation cavity. The cooking pot 3 has a mesh-enclosed pot body 4 inside. A ring plate 5 is provided on the upper outer wall of the mesh-enclosed pot body 4. The bottom of the ring plate 5 is connected to the lifting mechanism. A sealing seat 6 is provided on the upper outer wall of the shell 2. A sealing cover 7 is provided on the top of the shell 2. The sealing cover 7 is detachably connected to the sealing seat 6. A variable frequency heating module 8 is provided at the bottom inside the cooking pot 3. The variable frequency heating module 8 adopts variable frequency heating technology and uses a frequency converter to convert the mains frequency power supply into AC power with adjustable frequency, thereby controlling the power output of the heating element. Its working principle is based on electromagnetic induction or resistance heating, and the specific process is as follows: Rectification: Converting industrial frequency AC power into DC power; Filtering: Smoothing DC power to reduce voltage fluctuations; Inversion: Converting DC power into high-frequency AC power (frequency adjustable) through an inverter; Heating: The high-frequency AC power generates an alternating magnetic field or directly heats the target object through a heating element (such as an electromagnetic coil or resistance wire). A power cord 9 is provided on one side of the base 1, and the power cord 9 is connected to the frequency conversion heating module 8. A control panel 10 is provided on the side wall of the base 1, and the control panel 10 is connected to the frequency conversion heating module 8. The outer wall of the mesh-integrated pot body 4 is provided with partition holes 11. The partition holes 11 are arranged in pairs, and multiple sets are provided. A partition rod 12 is movably installed in the two symmetrical partition holes 11 in the same set. The mesh-integrated pot body 4 of this utility model can be used as a whole, or it can be divided into multiple partitions by inserting partition rods 12 to place plant-based protein raw materials in different partitions.

[0024] In use, the variable frequency temperature-controlled plant-based protein cooking device of this invention involves placing the plant-based protein raw material to be cooked into the mesh-enclosed pot 4, then connecting the sealing cap 7 to the sealing seat 6 to achieve a seal. The device is then connected to a power source via the power cord 9 to provide power. The variable frequency heating module 8 is controlled via the control panel 10 to heat the plant-based protein at a set temperature of 85-95℃. After cooking, the sealing cap 7 is opened, and the lifting mechanism is activated to lift the entire mesh-enclosed pot 4 from the cooking pot 3, quickly removing the plant-based protein raw material from the cooking pot 3 and preventing overheating of the raw material by residual heat.

[0025] The outer diameter of the ring plate 5 is larger than the diameter of the cooking pot 3, and the outer diameter of the ring plate 5 is smaller than the inner diameter of the sealing cover 7. This arrangement allows the sealing cover 7 to be smoothly connected to the sealing seat 6.

[0026] The sealing seat 6 has an external thread on its outer wall, and the sealing cover 7 has an internal thread on its inner wall. A handle ring 13 is provided on the outer side of the sealing cover 7, and the handle ring 13 is connected to the outer wall of the sealing cover 7. The handle ring 13 facilitates the rotation of the sealing cover 7, allowing the internal thread to connect with the external thread.

[0027] The lifting mechanism includes a lifting screw 14, a sleeve 15, and a guide assembly. The lifting screw 14 is rotatably mounted inside the mounting cavity. The sleeve 15 is threaded onto the lifting screw 14, and the upper end of the sleeve 15 is connected to the bottom of the ring plate 5. Multiple sets of guide assemblies are provided, each set connecting the lower part of the mounting cavity and the bottom of the ring plate 5. The guide assembly includes a hollow tube 16 and a guide rod 17. The lower end of the guide rod 17 is connected to the lower part of the mounting cavity, and the upper end of the guide rod 17 is connected to the bottom of the ring plate 5. The lower end of the guide rod 17 is slidably disposed inside the hollow tube 16. A motor housing 18 is provided on the top of the base 1. A drive motor 19 is provided inside the motor housing 18. A first gear 20 is provided at the output end of the drive motor 19. A second gear 21 is provided on the shaft at the lower end of the lifting screw 14, and the second gear 21 meshes with the first gear 20. After the drive motor 19 located inside the motor housing 18 starts, the first gear 20 at its output end meshes with the second gear 21 to drive the lifting screw 14 to rotate. Then the sleeve 15 rises and falls on the lifting screw 14. During this process, multiple sets of guide components guide the rise and fall of the sleeve 15. When the sleeve 15 rises and falls, the hollow tube 16 slides and rises and falls on the guide rod 17.

[0028] The sealing cover 7 has a water inlet and vent seat 22 on its top, and a drain pipe 23 is provided on the lower side wall of the outer shell 2. The drain pipe 23 connects to the lower interior of the cooking pot 3. The water inlet and vent seat 22 facilitates venting and adding water to the cooking pot 3, while the drain pipe 23 enables the rapid discharge of cooking water from the cooking pot 3.

[0029] This invention utilizes a variable frequency heating module 8 installed at the bottom of the cooking pot 3 to heat the interior of the cooking pot 3 using variable frequency heating technology. This allows for precise temperature control of the raw materials, improving the cooking quality and taste. Furthermore, the invention incorporates a lifting mechanism connected to a ring plate 5 on the mesh-integrated pot body 4 within the mounting cavity between the outer shell 2 and the cooking pot 3. This mechanism allows the mesh-integrated pot body 4 to be lifted after cooking, enabling the raw materials inside to be quickly discharged from the cooking pot 3. This avoids overheating of the raw materials at the bottom of the mesh-integrated pot body 4 due to slow discharge, thus preventing quality issues. During the discharge process, personnel do not need to be in prolonged contact with the heat source generated by the cooking pot 3, ensuring high safety.

[0030] This invention provides multiple sets of symmetrically arranged partition holes 11 on the mesh-integrated pot body 4, and partition rods 12 are installed in the same set of symmetrically arranged partition holes 11. By inserting the partition rods 12, the interior of the mesh-integrated pot body 4 can be divided into multiple areas for layered cooking of raw materials. Layered cooking can avoid uneven heating and further improve the cooking quality of raw materials.
