Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of cooking utensils, and in particular to a cooking mechanism. Background Technology

[0002] Cooking robots, through automation technology, can efficiently and precisely complete various cooking tasks, greatly improving cooking efficiency and consistency, ensuring that every dish achieves the expected taste and quality. Furthermore, robots can help reduce labor costs and lighten the workload of chefs, allowing them to focus on more creative and artistic cooking. For those with special dietary needs, cooking robots can also customize recipes according to individual health requirements, providing more personalized dietary options. By introducing cooking robots, both households and the catering industry can achieve significant improvements in saving time, reducing waste, and promoting healthy eating.

[0003] Existing cooking facilities typically employ a model where independent food storage units and cooking units work together. However, these units are usually laid out separately, preventing relative movement between them. This means that when transferring ingredients from the cooking unit to the food storage unit, operators must manually move the cooking unit to the vicinity of the food storage unit and then transfer the ingredients there, resulting in low operational efficiency during the food transfer process. Utility Model Content

[0004] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to overcome the shortcomings of low operation efficiency in the food transfer process of the prior art, and to provide a cooking mechanism.

[0005] The present invention solves the above-mentioned technical problems through the following technical solution:

[0006] This utility model discloses a cooking mechanism, which includes a cooking pot device and a food container device. The food container device moves to a first position closer to or further away from the cooking pot device. The cooking pot device is used to flip in the first position in the direction closer to or further away from the food container device. In the first position, when the cooking pot device flips and tilts in the direction closer to the food container device, the opening of the cooking pot device faces the opening of the food container device.

[0007] In this solution, using the aforementioned structural form, after the food container moves to the first position of the cooking pot device, the cooking pot device flips and tilts towards the food container device, achieving precise alignment between the pot opening and the opening of the food container device, thereby automatically pouring the food from the cooking pot device into the food container device. This process, through the coordinated control of the cooking pot device's flipping and the dynamic matching of the food container device's position, improves the level of automation and operational efficiency, while also enhancing the user experience.

[0008] Preferably, the cooking pot device includes a pot body and a motion component, the motion component being used to move the pot body toward or away from the food container device and to flip it.

[0009] In this solution, the above-mentioned structural form is adopted. The moving component drives the pot body to move, thereby enabling the pot body to move and flip towards the food container device, so that the ingredients can be poured from the cooking pot device into the food container device, thus realizing the transfer of ingredients.

[0010] Preferably, the motion component includes a first driving member and a first rotating member, the connecting end of the first rotating member is connected to the cookware body, and the end of the first rotating member away from the connecting end is connected to the driving end of the first driving member, and the first driving member is used to drive the first rotating member to rotate.

[0011] The connecting end moves toward or away from the food box device relative to the rotation axis of the first rotating member.

[0012] In this solution, the above-described structure is adopted, with the first driving member driving the first rotating member to rotate. The first rotating member then drives the pot body to move towards or away from the food container device to a first position, thereby enabling the cooking pot device and the food container device to cooperate easily and smoothly transfer the ingredients in the cooking pot device to the food container device.

[0013] Preferably, the first rotating member includes a plurality of meshing first gears, wherein the gear among the plurality of first gears closest to the first driving member is connected to the driving end of the first driving member, and the connecting end is disposed on the first gear among the plurality of first gears closest to the cookware body.

[0014] In this solution, the aforementioned structural form enables efficient power transmission. Through the meshing of the first gears, the rotational motion of the first driving component is converted into the movement of the cookware body. Simultaneously, the gear set design makes power transmission smoother, reducing potential shaking or instability caused by direct drive. Furthermore, the interaction of multiple first gears can also provide a certain degree of deceleration or acceleration, allowing for adjustment of the cookware body's movement speed according to actual needs, better adapting to various operational requirements during cooking. Moreover, the high precision of the first gear meshing transmission ensures accurate positioning of the cookware body when it reaches the first position, facilitating precise coordination between the cooking pot device and the food container device, and enabling smooth transfer of ingredients. This not only improves the overall transmission efficiency of the device but also enhances its stability and reliability, providing a strong guarantee for the smooth progress of the cooking process.

[0015] Preferably, the motion component further includes a second driving member and a second rotating member, one end of the second rotating member is connected to the driving end of the second driving member, and the other end of the second rotating member is connected to the cookware body, for driving the cookware body to flip towards or away from the food container device.

This design provides the cookware body with flexible flipping capabilities during cooking, facilitating adjustments to the relative position between the cookware body and the food container according to different cooking needs. When it is necessary to transfer ingredients from the cooking pot to the food container, the second drive unit is activated, driving the second rotating unit to rotate, thereby flipping the cookware body towards the food container, ensuring that the ingredients can be transferred smoothly and accurately. After the ingredients are transferred, the cookware body can also be flipped back to its original position through the cooperation of the second drive unit and the second rotating unit, preparing for subsequent cooking operations.

[0017] Preferably, the second rotating member includes a plurality of meshing bevel gears, wherein the bevel gear closest to the driving end of the second driving member is connected to the driving end of the second driving member, and the bevel gear closest to the food container device is connected to the food container device, and the axes of two meshing bevel gears are not parallel.

The bevel gear near the driving end of the second driving component is connected to the driving end of the second driving component, while the bevel gear near the food container device is connected to the food container device. The axes of the two meshing bevel gears are not parallel, which allows the second rotating component to achieve motion conversion. Through the meshing of the bevel gears, the rotational motion of the second driving component is converted into the motion form required by the food container device, thereby changing the direction of motion. This better adapts to the motion requirements of the food container device and ensures that the food container device can move accurately towards or away from the first position. In addition, the meshing transmission of the bevel gears has high precision and stability, which can ensure the accurate positioning of the food container device during the movement process, further improving the performance and reliability of the cooking mechanism.

Simultaneously, the receiving cavity protects the moving parts and / or fixed parts, extending their service life. Furthermore, the third driving component engages with the fixed surface, allowing the fixed surface to move under the drive of the third driving component. This structural design not only improves the operating efficiency of the food container rotating assembly but also enhances its operational stability, ensuring that the food container linkage assembly accurately reaches the designated position during rotation, thereby improving the stability and reliability of the food container rotating assembly.

The translation structure is connected to the body and is used to move the food container towards or away from the opening of the cooking pot. The flipping structure is connected to the rotation axis of the food container and is used to flip the food container towards or away from the cooking pot.

[0034] In this solution, the aforementioned structural design connects the second body to the rotating shaft of the food container, ensuring its stability during rotation and preventing spillage or uneven feeding. The translation structure precisely moves the food container above the cooking pot according to cooking needs, ensuring accurate ingredient placement and reducing potential errors associated with traditional manual feeding. Simultaneously, the rotation structure allows the food container to flip at a preset angle and direction, further improving feeding accuracy and efficiency. This structural design not only enhances the automation of the cooking process but also reduces errors and risks associated with manual operation, making the entire cooking process more efficient, safe, and reliable.

[0035] Preferably, the translation structure includes a horizontal moving member and a vertical moving member. The vertical moving member is connected to the second body and is used to drive the food container to move in the vertical direction. The horizontal moving member is connected to the second body and is used to drive the second body to move towards or away from the cooking pot device.

[0036] In this solution, the aforementioned structural form is adopted.

This not only allows for precise control of the flipping angle and speed of the food container but also ensures the smoothness and reliability of the flipping process. Using this structural form, the food container can quickly and accurately complete the flipping action during cooking, achieving even distribution of ingredients, thereby improving cooking efficiency and food quality, while reducing manual intervention and further enhancing the automation level of the cooking process.

[0042] Preferably, the transmission component includes a plurality of second gears that mesh sequentially, wherein the rotation shaft of one of the second gears is connected to the transmission shaft, and the other second gear is connected to the driving component, the driving component being used to drive the second gear to rotate.

[0043] In this design, one of the second gears is connected to the transmission shaft, ensuring stable power transmission to the rotating shaft of the food container, thereby driving the container to flip. Simultaneously, the other second gear is connected to the driving component, which in turn drives the entire transmission system by rotating this gear. This structural design not only achieves precise power transmission but also allows for adjustments to the gear ratios of the second gears to change the rotation speed and torque, thus meeting various cooking needs. Furthermore, the tight meshing between the second gears effectively reduces energy loss during power transmission, improving the overall system's transmission efficiency and stability, ensuring a smoother and more reliable flipping motion of the food container, and further enhancing the automation and precision of the cooking process.

[0044] Preferably, the driving component includes a first driving part, the food box linkage assembly includes a fifth body, the fifth body is connected to the third body, the surface of the fifth body facing the fourth body is provided with a second through groove, and the rotation shaft of one of the second gears extends into the fifth body through the second through groove and is connected to the first driving part provided in the fifth body, the first driving part is used to drive the second gear to rotate.

[0046] In this design, the aforementioned structural form is adopted. A second through slot is provided on the surface of the fifth body facing the fourth body, allowing the rotating shaft of one of the second gears to extend into the fifth body through this slot and connect with the first driving part located within the fifth body. This not only optimizes the power transmission path but also ensures the stability and reliability of the power transmission. The first driving part drives the second gear to rotate, enabling power to be efficiently transmitted from the driving component to the second gear, thereby driving the flipping action of the food container. The extension direction of the second through slot is at least along the direction of the driving body of the horizontal moving component, allowing the rotating shaft of the second gear to smoothly follow the horizontal movement of the food container linkage assembly. This not only improves the flexibility and adaptability of the entire device but also reduces mechanical failures that may be caused by structural interference, further enhancing the stability and service life of the device.

[0047] Preferably, the first driving part includes a third gear and a first rack that can mesh with each other, the first rack being connected to the fifth body, and a rotating shaft of one of the second gears extending into the fifth body and connected to the rotating shaft of the third gear.

One of the rotating shafts of the second gear extends into the third body and is connected to the rotating shaft of the third gear, allowing power to be transmitted from the third gear to the second gear, ultimately driving the flipping action of the food container. Simultaneously, the extension direction of the first rack is at least along the direction in which the horizontal moving component drives the second body, ensuring that the meshing relationship between the rack and the gear remains stable when the food container linkage assembly moves horizontally. This ensures the continuity and reliability of power transmission, thereby not only improving the efficiency of power transmission but also enhancing the stability and flexibility of the entire device. This makes the flipping action of the food container smoother and more precise, further improving the automation level of the cooking process and the quality of the dishes.

[0050] Preferably, the driving member further includes a second driving part, at least a portion of which extends into the fourth body and meshes with one of the second gears to drive the second gears to rotate.

[0051] In this design, the aforementioned structural form is adopted, with at least a portion of the second drive unit extending into the fourth body and directly meshing with one of the second gears. This allows power to be efficiently transmitted to the second gear, thereby driving its rotation. The intervention of the second drive unit diversifies the power source of the entire transmission component, while also improving the stability and reliability of power transmission. When the second gear rotates, the linkage with other meshing second gears ensures the coordinated operation of the entire transmission component, achieving precise flipping of the food container. This not only improves the efficiency of power transmission but also makes the flipping action of the food container smoother and more precise, further optimizing the automation level of the entire cooking process.

[0052] Preferably, when the second driving part engages with one of the second gears, the third gear disengages from the first rack;

[0053] When the third gear meshes with the first rack, the second driving part disengages from one of the second gears.

[0054] In this solution, the aforementioned structural form enables flexible switching between two driving methods, allowing the food container linkage component to select the most suitable driving mode according to different working requirements. When the second driving part meshes with one of the second gears, the third gear disengages from the first rack, ensuring that power is transmitted only through the second driving part, avoiding conflicts and interference in the power transmission path. Conversely, when the third gear meshes with the first rack, the second driving part disengages from the second gear, allowing power to be transmitted through the combination of the first rack and the third gear. This not only improves the overall operating efficiency of the device but also enhances the reliability and stability of the system. In this way, the food container linkage component can flexibly select the most suitable driving mode under different working conditions, thereby achieving more precise and efficient food container flipping and movement operations, further improving the automation level and flexibility of the entire cooking process.

[0055] The positive and progressive effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0056] After the food container moves to the first position of the cooking pot, the cooking pot tilts and flips towards the food container, achieving precise alignment between the pot opening and the opening of the food container. This allows the food to be automatically poured from the cooking pot into the food container. This process, through coordinated control of the cooking pot's tilting and the dynamic matching of the food container's position, improves automation and operational efficiency, while also enhancing the user experience.

[0107] The present invention will be further described below by way of embodiments, but the present invention is not limited to the scope of the embodiments.

[0108] like Figures 1 to 11 As shown, this embodiment provides a cooking mechanism 100, which includes a cooking pot device 1 and a food container device 2. The food container device 2 moves towards or away from the cooking pot device 1 in a first position, and the cooking pot device 1 is used to flip towards or away from the food container device 2 in the first position. In the first position, when the cooking pot device 1 flips and tilts towards the food container device 2, the opening of the cooking pot device 1 faces the opening of the food container device 2. With the above structure, after the food container device 2 moves to the first position of the cooking pot device 1, the cooking pot device 1 flips and tilts towards the food container device 2, achieving precise alignment between the opening of the pot and the opening of the food container device 2, thereby automatically pouring the food from the cooking pot device 1 into the food container device 2. This process improves the level of automation and operational efficiency through the coordinated control of the flipping of the cooking pot device 1 and the dynamic matching of the position of the food container device 2, while also improving the user experience.

[0109] It should be specifically noted that the first position mentioned above refers to the position where the cooking pot device 1 can be tilted and overturned. The first position can be in front of the cooking pot device 1, behind the cooking pot device 1, or on the left or rear side of the cooking pot device 1. The specific setting of the first position can be adjusted according to the user's actual needs, and no specific limitation is made here.

[0110] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the cooking pot device includes a pot body 11 and a motion component 12. The motion component 12 is used to move the pot body 11 towards or away from the food container device 2 and to flip it. With the above structure, the motion component 12 drives the pot body 11 to move, thereby enabling the pot body 11 to move towards and flip towards the food container device 2, allowing food to be poured from the cooking pot device 1 into the food container device 2, thus realizing the transfer of food.

[0111] Specifically, such as Figures 1 to 4As shown, the motion component 12 includes a first driving member 121 and a first rotating member 122. The connecting end of the first rotating member 122 is connected to the cookware body 11, and the end of the first rotating member 122 away from the connecting end is connected to the driving end of the first driving member 121. The first driving member 121 is used to drive the first rotating member 122 to rotate. The connecting end moves towards or away from the food container device 2 relative to the rotation axis of the first rotating member 122. With this structure, the first driving member 121 drives the first rotating member 122 to rotate. The first rotating member 122 then drives the cookware body 11 to move towards or away from the food container device 2 to a first position, thereby allowing the cooking pot device 1 and the food container device 2 to easily cooperate, enabling the food in the cooking pot device 1 to be smoothly transferred to the food container device 2.

[0112] In this embodiment, the motion component 12 further includes a connector, the two ends of which are connected to the connecting end of the first rotating component 122 and the cookware body 11, respectively. Thus, the rotation of the first rotating component 122 can be transmitted to the cookware body 11 through the connector, thereby realizing the movement of the cookware body 11.

[0113] In addition, in this embodiment, the first driving element 121 is a drive motor. In other embodiments, the first driving element 121 may be of other types, which are not limited here.

[0114] like Figure 3 As shown, the first rotating member 122 includes a plurality of meshing first gears 1221, wherein the gear of the plurality of first gears 1221 that is closer to the first driving member 121 is connected to the driving end of the first driving member 121, and the connecting end is located on the first gear 1221 that is closer to the cookware body 11. By adopting the above-described structural form, efficient power transmission can be achieved. Through the meshing of the first gears 1221, the rotational motion of the first driving member 121 is converted into the movement of the pot body 11. At the same time, the design of the gear set makes the power transmission smoother and reduces the shaking or instability that may occur due to direct drive. In addition, the mutual cooperation of multiple first gears 1221 can also play a certain role in deceleration or acceleration. The moving speed of the pot body 11 can be adjusted according to actual needs to better adapt to various operational requirements in the cooking process. Moreover, the meshing transmission of the first gears 1221 has high precision, which can ensure the accurate positioning of the pot body 11 when it moves to the first position. This is conducive to the precise cooperation between the cooking pot device 1 and the food container device 2, and realizes the smooth transfer of ingredients. This not only improves the transmission efficiency of the entire device, but also enhances its stability and reliability, providing a strong guarantee for the smooth progress of the cooking process.

[0115] In this embodiment, the number of first gears 1221 is three for illustrative purposes. In other embodiments, the number of first gears 1221 can be adjusted according to actual needs, and is not limited here.

[0116] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the motion component 12 also includes a second drive member 123 and a second rotating member 124. One end of the second rotating member 124 is connected to the drive end of the second drive member 123, and the other end of the second rotating member 124 is connected to the pot body 11, used to drive the pot body 11 to flip towards or away from the food container device 2. With the above structure, the pot body 11 can be effectively controlled, causing it to flip towards or away from the food container device 2. This design gives the pot body 11 a flexible flipping function during cooking, facilitating adjustments to the relative position between the pot body 11 and the food container device 2 according to different cooking needs. When it is necessary to transfer ingredients from the cooking pot device 1 to the food container device 2, the second drive member 123 is activated, driving the second rotating member 124 to rotate, thereby causing the pot body 11 to flip towards the food container device 2, ensuring that the ingredients can be transferred smoothly and accurately. Simultaneously, after the ingredients are transferred, the pot body 11 can also be flipped back to its original position through the cooperation of the second drive member 123 and the second rotating member 124, preparing for subsequent cooking operations.

[0117] In practical use, the second driving component 123 is a drive motor. In other embodiments, the first driving component 121 may be of other types, which are not limited here.

[0118] In addition, in this embodiment, the second driving member 123 is located below the first rotating member 122, and the second rotating member 124 is located above the first rotating member 122. A through hole is provided on the first rotating member 122, and the second driving member 123 can be connected to the second rotating member 124 through the first rotating member 122.

[0119] like Figure 3As shown, the second rotating member 124 includes a plurality of meshing bevel gears 1241, wherein the bevel gear 1241 near the driving end of the second driving member 123 is connected to the driving end of the second driving member 123, and the bevel gear 1241 near the vegetable box device 2 is connected to the vegetable box device 2, and the axes of the two meshing bevel gears 1241 are not parallel. With the above-described structure, the second rotating member 124 is composed of multiple meshing bevel gears 1241. The bevel gear 1241 near the driving end of the second driving member 123 is connected to the driving end of the second driving member 123, while the bevel gear 1241 near the food container device 2 is connected to the food container device 2. The axes of the two meshing bevel gears 1241 are not parallel, which allows the second rotating member 124 to achieve motion conversion. Through the meshing of the bevel gears 1241, the rotational motion of the second driving member 123 is converted into the motion form required by the food container device 2, thereby changing the direction of motion and better adapting to the motion requirements of the food container device 2. This ensures that the food container device 2 can move accurately towards or away from the first position. In addition, the meshing transmission of the bevel gears 1241 has high precision and stability, which can ensure the accurate positioning of the food container device 2 during the movement process, further improving the performance and reliability of the cooking mechanism 100.

[0120] This embodiment uses two bevel gears 1241 as an example for illustrative purposes. In other embodiments, the number of bevel gears 1241 can be adjusted according to actual needs, and is not limited here.

[0121] The movement trajectory of the food container 2 is arranged around the circumference of the food container 2, thereby improving the compactness of the cooking mechanism 100 structure.

[0122] like Figures 5 to 11 As shown, the food container device 2 includes a food container rotating component 21 and a food container linkage component 22. The food container rotating component 21 is connected to the food container linkage component 22 and is used to drive the food container linkage component 22 to move towards or away from the first position. The extending direction of the food container rotating component 21 is at least along the movement direction of the food container linkage component 22. With this structure, the food container rotating component 21 drives the food container linkage component 22 to move towards or away from the first position, allowing the food container linkage component 22 to precisely adjust its relative position to the cooking pot device 1 according to actual cooking needs. When it is necessary to transfer food from the cooking pot device 1 to the food container device 2, the food container rotating component 21 is activated, and through its connection with the food container linkage component 22, it drives the food container linkage component 22 towards the first position, ensuring that the food container device 2 can accurately receive the food, thus improving the ease of operation and efficiency during the cooking process.

[0123] In this embodiment, the food box rotating component 21 is arranged circumferentially around the food box device 2. In other embodiments, the extension direction of the food box rotating component 21 can be adjusted according to actual needs, and is not limited here.

[0124] like Figures 5 to 7 As shown, the food container rotating assembly 21 includes a moving part 211 and a fixed part 212. The fixed part 212 is provided with a first conductor, and the moving part 211 is provided with a second conductor. One end of the second conductor is slidably electrically connected to the first conductor, and the other end of the second conductor is fixedly electrically connected to the food container linkage assembly 22, so that the first conductor supplies power to the food container linkage assembly 22 through the second conductor. The extension direction of the first conductor is at least along the movement direction of the food container linkage assembly 22. Specifically, the food container rotating assembly 21, through the cooperation of the moving part 211 and the fixed part 212, realizes the power supply function of the food container linkage assembly 22. Specifically, one end of the second conductor is slidably electrically connected to the first conductor, and the other end of the second conductor is fixedly electrically connected to the food container linkage assembly 22. Furthermore, the extension direction of the first conductor is at least along the movement direction of the food container linkage assembly 22, thus realizing the power supply of the food container linkage assembly 22 by the first conductor, ensuring the stability and reliability of the power supply, and avoiding problems such as poor contact or power interruption caused by the sliding of the moving part 211 during the power supply process. By adopting the above-mentioned structural form, the problem of excessive pulling of the wires due to wire entanglement is avoided, the efficiency and stability of power supply are improved, and the vegetable box rotation component 21 can continuously and reliably transmit power during the movement of the vegetable box linkage component 22, so as to meet the power supply needs of the vegetable box linkage component 22 at different moving positions.

[0125] like Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, in this embodiment, the fixing member 212 has a first receiving groove 2121 for placing the first conductor. The end of the second conductor away from the food container linkage assembly 22 extends into the first receiving groove 2121 and makes electrical contact with the first conductor, and the second conductor is slidably connected to the first receiving groove 2121. The first receiving groove 2121 and the first conductor extend in the same direction. With the above structure, the first receiving groove 2121 on the fixing member 212 is used to place the first conductor, and one end of the second conductor on the moving member 211 extends into the first receiving groove 2121 and makes electrical contact with the first conductor, while the other end is fixedly connected to the food container linkage assembly 22, thereby realizing the power supply of the first conductor to the food container linkage assembly 22. The first receiving groove 2121 and the first conductor extend in the same direction, ensuring the stability and reliability of the power supply and avoiding poor contact or power interruption caused by the sliding of the moving member 211 during the power supply process. In addition, the second conductor is slidably connected to the first receiving groove 2121, thereby providing guidance for the movement of the moving part 211 and improving the stability and reliability of the movement of the moving part 211.

[0126] In other embodiments, the moving member 211 has a second receiving groove for placing the second conductor. One end of the first conductor extends into the second receiving groove and makes electrical contact with the second conductor, and the first conductor and the second receiving groove are slidably connected. The second receiving groove and the second conductor extend in the same direction. Specifically, the second receiving groove on the moving member 211 is used to place the second conductor, one end of the first conductor extends into the second receiving groove and makes electrical contact with the second conductor, and the second receiving groove and the second conductor extend in the same direction, ensuring the stability and reliability of the power supply and avoiding poor contact or power interruption caused by the sliding of the moving member 211 during the power supply process. Furthermore, the slidable connection between the first conductor and the second receiving groove provides guidance for the movement of the moving member 211, improving the stability and reliability of the movement of the moving member 211.

[0127] like Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, there are multiple first receiving slots 2121, and each second conductor is arranged in a one-to-one correspondence with a first receiving slot 2121. Specifically, each first receiving slot 2121 contains a first conductor, and each second conductor makes electrical contact with each first conductor. This structural configuration further improves the stability and reliability of power supply from the first conductor to the second conductor.

[0128] This embodiment uses three first receiving slots 2121 for illustrative purposes. In other embodiments, the number of first receiving slots 2121 can be selected according to actual needs, and is not limited here.

[0129] like Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, the food container rotating assembly 21 also includes a first body 213 with a receiving cavity 2131 and a third driving member 214. A moving member 211 and a fixing member 212 are disposed within the receiving cavity 2131. The first body 213 includes a fixing surface 2132 for housing the food container linkage assembly 22. The third driving member 214 is connected to the fixing surface 2132 and drives the fixing surface 2132 to move. Specifically, the receiving cavity 2131 provides installation space for the moving member 211 and the fixing member 212, improving the compactness of the food container rotating assembly 21 structure. Simultaneously, the receiving cavity 2131 protects the moving member 211 and / or the fixing member 212, extending their service life. Furthermore, the third driving member 214 engages with the fixing surface 2132, allowing the fixing surface 2132 to move under the drive of the third driving member 214. The above-mentioned structural form not only improves the operating efficiency of the food box rotation component 21, but also enhances its operational stability, ensuring that the food box linkage component 22 can accurately reach the designated position during rotation, thereby improving the stability and reliability of the food box rotation component 21.

[0130] In this embodiment, the fixing surface 2132 is the upper surface of the first body 213. In other embodiments, the fixing surface 2132 may be any other surface of the first body 213, and this is not limited here. In addition, in this embodiment, a through hole is provided on the fixing surface 2132 to facilitate the electrical connection between the second conductor and the food box linkage assembly 22. In other embodiments, the through hole may also be provided on any other surface of the first body 213, and this is not limited here.

[0131] like Figures 8 to 11 As shown, the food container linkage assembly 22 includes a second body 221, a translation structure 222, a flipping structure 223, and a food container 224. The second body 221 is rotatably connected to the rotation axis of the food container 224. The translation structure 222 is connected to the body and is used to move the food container 224 towards or away from the opening of the cooking pot device 1. The flipping structure 223 is connected to the rotation axis of the food container 224 and is used to flip the food container 224 towards or away from the cooking pot device 1. With this structure, the second body 221 is connected to the rotation axis of the food container 224, ensuring that the food container 224 remains stable during flipping, thus preventing spillage or uneven feeding of ingredients. The translation structure 222 can precisely move the food container 224 directly above the cooking pot according to cooking needs, ensuring that ingredients are accurately poured into the cooking pot, reducing the deviations that may occur with traditional manual feeding. Meanwhile, the flipping structure 223 allows the food container 224 to flip at a preset angle and direction, further improving the accuracy and efficiency of ingredient feeding. This structural design not only enhances the automation of the cooking process but also reduces errors and risks associated with manual operation, making the entire cooking process more efficient, safe, and reliable.

[0132] In practical use, when the food in the food container 224 needs to be poured into the cooking pot device 1, the translation structure 222 can move the food container 224 upwards towards the opening of the cooking pot device 1. Furthermore, the flipping structure 223 ensures that the opening of the food container 224 faces the opening of the cooking pot device 1, thus ensuring that the food is accurately poured into the cooking pot device 1. After the food is poured into the cooking pot device 1, the translation structure 222 moves the food container 224 away from the cooking pot device 1, returning it to its initial position. When the food container 224 needs to be cleaned later, the flipping structure 223 can be used to turn the opening of the food container 224 downwards, allowing water to rinse the food container 224. The rinsed water can then flow out through the opening of the food container 224.

[0133] like Figure 10 and Figure 11As shown, the translation structure 222 includes a horizontal moving component 2221 and a vertical moving component 2222. The vertical moving component 2222 is connected to the second body 221 and is used to drive the food container 224 to move vertically. The horizontal moving component 2221 is connected to the second body 221 and is used to drive the second body 221 to move closer to or further away from the cooking pot device 1. With this structure, the vertical moving component 2222, connected to the second body 221, can drive the food container 224 to move smoothly up and down vertically, ensuring that the food container 224 accurately reaches the preset height position during the feeding process. The horizontal moving component 2221, connected to the second body 221, can drive the body to move closer to or further away from the rim of the cooking pot, allowing the food container 224 to accurately reach directly above the rim, thereby achieving accurate food feeding. This not only improves the accuracy of feeding but also reduces errors and risks associated with manual operation, enhancing the automation level and safety of the cooking process.

[0134] In this embodiment, the vertical moving member 2222 includes a motor and a lead screw electrically connected together, and the motor drives the lead screw, thereby causing the body to move vertically. In other embodiments, the vertical moving member 2222 may be of other types, which are not limited here.

[0135] It should be specifically noted that in this embodiment, the vertical moving member 2222 drives the second body 221 to move vertically, and the horizontal moving member 2221 drives the second body 221 to move horizontally, thereby enabling the food container 224 to move towards or away from the top of the pot opening of the cooking pot device 1. Other forms may be used in other embodiments, which are not limited here.

[0136] like Figure 8 and Figure 9As shown, the second body 221 includes a third body 2211 and a fourth body 2212. A horizontal moving member 2221 is disposed within the third body 2211. A first through-slot is formed on the surface of the third body 2211 facing the fourth body 2212. One end of the fourth body 2212 extends into the third body 2211 through the first through-slot and connects to the horizontal moving member 2221. The extending direction of the first through-slot is the same as the moving direction of the fourth body 2212. The food container 224 is connected to the end of the fourth body 2212 away from the third body 2211. With this structure, the horizontal moving member 2221 is disposed within the third body 2211, thus protecting it. The first through-slot on the surface of the third body 2211 facing the fourth body 2212 allows the fourth body 2212 to smoothly extend into the third body 2211 and connect to the horizontal moving member 2221, ensuring both structural compactness and smooth movement. The extension direction of the first through groove is the same as the movement direction of the fourth body 2212, thereby ensuring that the fourth body 2212 can move smoothly along the preset direction. The food container 224 is connected to the end of the fourth body 2212 away from the third body 2211, so that the food container 224 can move precisely towards the cooking pot along the predetermined trajectory under the drive of the horizontal moving part 2221, ensuring that the ingredients can be accurately poured into the cooking pot.

[0137] In practical use, a zipper is connected to the first through slot to prevent oil and other contaminants from entering the third body 2211 through the first through slot.

[0138] like Figure 10 As shown, the flipping structure 223 includes a driving member 2231, a transmission member 2232, and a transmission shaft 2233. The transmission member 2232 is located inside the fourth body 2212, and one end of the transmission shaft 2233 is connected to the rotation shaft of the food container 224, while the other end extends into the fourth body 2212 and is connected to the rotation shaft of the transmission member 2232. The end of the transmission member 2232 away from the transmission shaft 2233 is connected to the driving member 2231, which drives the transmission member 2232 to rotate. With this structure, the driving member 2231 drives the transmission member 2232 to rotate, thereby driving the transmission shaft 2233 to rotate, ultimately achieving the flipping action of the food container 224. This not only allows for precise control of the flipping angle and speed of the food container 224 but also ensures the smoothness and reliability of the flipping process. With the above-mentioned structure, the food container 224 can quickly and accurately complete the flipping action during the cooking process, so as to achieve the even distribution of ingredients, thereby improving cooking efficiency and food quality, while reducing human intervention and further improving the automation level of the cooking process.

[0139] like Figure 10As shown, the transmission component 2232 includes multiple second gears 22321, which mesh sequentially. The rotation shaft of one second gear 22321 is connected to the transmission shaft 2233, and the other second gear 22321 is connected to the driving component 2231, which drives the second gear 22321 to rotate. Specifically, the connection between the rotation shaft of one second gear 22321 and the transmission shaft 2233 ensures stable power transmission to the rotation shaft of the food container 224, thereby driving the food container 224 to flip. Simultaneously, the other second gear 22321 is connected to the driving component 2231, which drives the entire transmission component 2232 by rotating this gear. This structural design not only achieves precise power transmission but also allows for adjustments to the gear ratio of the second gears 22321 to change the rotation speed and torque, thus meeting different cooking needs. In addition, the tight meshing between the second gears 22321 can effectively reduce energy loss during power transmission, improve the transmission efficiency and stability of the entire system, ensure that the flipping action of the food container 224 is more stable and reliable, and further enhance the automation and precision of the cooking process.

[0140] like Figure 10 and Figure 11As shown, the driving member 2231 includes a first driving part 22311, and the food box linkage assembly 22 includes a fifth body 225. The fifth body 225 is connected to the third body 2211. A second through groove 2251 is provided on the surface of the fifth body 225 facing the fourth body 2212. The rotation shaft of one of the second gears 22321 extends into the fifth body 225 through the second through groove 2251 and is connected to the first driving part 22311 provided in the fifth body 225. The first driving part 22311 is used to drive the second gear 22321 to rotate. The extension direction of the second through groove 2251 is at least along the direction in which the horizontal moving member 2221 drives the second body 221. With the above-described structure, a second through slot 2251 is provided on the surface of the fifth body 225 facing the fourth body 2212, allowing the rotation shaft of one of the second gears 22321 to extend into the fifth body 225 through the slot and connect with the first driving part 22311 located within the fifth body 225. This not only optimizes the power transmission path but also ensures the stability and reliability of the power transmission. The first driving part 22311 drives the second gear 22321 to rotate, enabling power to be efficiently transmitted from the driving member 2231 to the second gear 22321, thereby driving the flipping action of the food container 224. The extension direction of the second through slot 2251 is at least along the direction of the driving body of the horizontal moving member 2221, so that when the food container linkage assembly 22 moves horizontally, the rotation shaft of the second gear 22321 can smoothly follow the movement. This not only improves the flexibility and adaptability of the entire device but also reduces mechanical failures that may be caused by structural interference, further enhancing the stability and service life of the device.

[0141] In this embodiment, the extension direction of the second through groove 2251 is along the direction in which the horizontal moving member 2221 drives the second body 221. Additionally, a zipper is connected to the second through groove 2251 to prevent oil and other contaminants from entering the fifth body 225 through the second through groove 2251.

[0142] like Figure 11As shown, the first driving unit 22311 includes a third gear 2231111 and a first rack 223112 that can mesh with each other. The first rack 223112 is connected inside the fifth body 225. The rotation shaft of one of the second gears 22321 extends into the fifth body 225 and is connected to the rotation shaft of the third gear 2231111. The extending direction of the first rack 223112 is at least along the direction in which the horizontal moving member 2221 drives the second body 221. With the above-described structure, the transmission combination of the third gear 2231111 and the first rack 223112 achieves effective power transmission and precise control. The rotation shaft of one of the second gears 22321 extends into the third body 2211 and is connected to the rotation shaft of the third gear 2231111, so that power can be transmitted from the third gear 2231111 to the second gear 22321, ultimately driving the flipping action of the food container 224. Meanwhile, the extension direction of the first rack 223112 is at least along the direction in which the horizontal moving part 2221 drives the second body 221, so that when the vegetable box linkage assembly 22 moves horizontally, the meshing relationship between the rack and the gear can remain stable, ensuring the continuity and reliability of power transmission. This not only improves the efficiency of power transmission, but also enhances the stability and flexibility of the entire device, making the flipping action of the vegetable box 224 more stable and precise, further improving the automation level of the cooking process and the quality of the dishes.

[0143] like Figure 10 As shown, the driving member 2231 also includes a second driving part 22312, at least a portion of which extends into the fourth body 2212 and meshes with one of the second gears 22321 to drive the second gear 22321 to rotate. With this structure, at least a portion of the second driving part 22312 extends into the fourth body 2212 and directly meshes with one of the second gears 22321, allowing power to be efficiently transmitted to the second gear 22321, thereby driving it to rotate. Through the intervention of the second driving part 22312, the power source of the entire transmission member 2232 becomes more diversified, while also improving the stability and reliability of power transmission. When the second gear 22321 rotates, the linkage with other second gears 22321 meshing with it ensures that the entire transmission component 2232 works in coordination, realizing the precise flipping action of the food container 224. This not only improves the efficiency of power transmission, but also makes the flipping action of the food container 224 more stable and precise, further optimizing the automation level of the entire cooking process.

[0144] When the second driving part 22312 meshes with one of the second gears 22321, the third gear 2231111 disengages from the first rack 223112; when the third gear 2231111 meshes with the first rack 223112, the second driving part 22312 disengages from one of the second gears 22321. This structural configuration allows for flexible switching between two driving methods, enabling the food container linkage assembly 22 to select the most suitable driving mode according to different operational needs. When the second driving part 22312 meshes with one of the second gears 22321, the third gear 2231111 disengages from the first rack 223112, ensuring that power is transmitted only through the second driving part 22312, avoiding conflicts and interference in the power transmission path. Conversely, when the third gear 2231111 meshes with the first rack 223112, the second drive unit 22312 disengages from the second gear 22321, allowing power to be transmitted through the combination of the first rack 223112 and the third gear 2231111. This not only improves the overall operating efficiency of the device but also enhances the reliability and stability of the system. In this way, the food container linkage assembly 22 can flexibly select the most suitable drive mode under different working conditions, thereby achieving more precise and efficient flipping and moving of the food container 224, further improving the automation level and flexibility of the entire cooking process.
