Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of rice cooker technology, and in particular to a low-sugar rice cooker. Background Technology

[0002] An electric rice cooker is a modern cooking appliance capable of steaming, boiling, stewing, simmering, and braising. It not only cooks food but also keeps it warm. It is clean, hygienic, and pollution-free to use, saving time and effort, making it an indispensable tool for modern household chores. As people's living standards continue to improve, their demands for quality of life are also increasing, with some groups, especially those with high blood sugar or diabetes, showing a growing need for low-sugar options.

[0003] Existing low-sugar rice cookers typically only add water to the rice in the second container and filter it before starting to cook. Simply rinsing the rice once only performs a minor sugar removal process; the large amount of sugar it carries is not gelatinized, nor is it gelatinized. As a result, the cooked rice still has a high sugar content, leading to a very poor sugar-reducing effect from the rice cooker. It cannot quickly remove sugar from the rice, making it inconvenient for the target audience to choose and use.

[0004] Based on the above background, a low-sugar rice cooker is proposed to solve the problem. Summary of the Invention

[0005] Other features and advantages of the invention will be set forth in the description which follows, and will be apparent in part from the description, or may be learned by practicing the invention. The objects and other advantages of the invention may be realized and obtained by means of the structures particularly pointed out in the description and other accompanying drawings.

[0006] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the above-mentioned shortcomings and provide a low-sugar rice cooker.

[0007] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution of the present invention is: a low-sugar rice cooker, comprising: a first container for holding water, a second container for holding rice, a heating device for heating the first container, and a flow guiding device for guiding water in the first container to the second container, wherein the second container is provided with a filter device for draining water out of the second container; wherein the flow guiding device includes a flow guiding channel for guiding water into the second container and a propeller for driving the water flow.

[0008] In some embodiments, the filtration device has a plurality of filter holes on the second container.

[0009] In some embodiments, the second container and the first container are detachably assembled together.

[0010] In some embodiments, the guide channel is provided with an inlet channel and an outlet channel for introducing and drawing out water.

[0011] In some embodiments, an inlet is provided between the second container and the flow channel, and the outlet channel is used to add water to the second container through the inlet.

[0012] In some embodiments, the propeller includes a water agitator located within a flow channel and a drive device for rotating the water agitator.

[0013] In some embodiments, the flow guiding device is detachably fitted to the first container.

[0014] In some embodiments, the drive device includes a motor, a first magnet connected to the motor, and a second magnet connected to a water agitator, wherein the first magnet and the second magnet are separated by a first container.

[0015] In some embodiments, the motor and the first magnet are located outside the first container.

[0016] In some embodiments, the rice cooker also includes a top cover, which is mounted on the rice cooker and has a vent hole and a silicone vent hole.

[0017] By adopting the above-mentioned control method, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: The present invention first adds water to the second container through the diversion device to soak and rinse the rice grains, which has the function of preventing the rice grains from breaking before steaming and cooking. After rinsing, the rice grains are steamed for a short time and then soaked and rinsed again, which has the function of washing away the short-chain glucose produced by high-temperature gelatinization and splitting. Finally, they are steamed until fully cooked, thus producing rice with extremely low sugar content.

Detailed Implementation

[0026] The embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and examples, so that the process of how the present invention uses technical means to solve technical problems and achieve technical effects can be fully understood and implemented accordingly. It should be noted that, as long as there is no conflict, the various embodiments and features in the various embodiments of the present invention can be combined with each other, and the resulting technical solutions are all within the protection scope of the present invention.

[0027] Furthermore, numerous specific details are set forth in the following description for illustrative purposes to provide a thorough understanding of the embodiments of the invention. However, it will be apparent to those skilled in the art that the invention may be practiced without the specific details or particular methods described herein.

[0028] Please see Figure 1-2 The present invention provides a low-sugar rice cooker, comprising: a first container 1 for holding water, a second container 2 for holding rice, a heating device 3 for heating the first container 1, and a flow guiding device 4 for guiding water in the first container 1 to the second container 2. The second container 2 is provided with a filter device 5 for draining water out of the second container 2. The flow guiding device 4 includes a flow guiding channel 41 for guiding water into the second container 2 and a propeller 42 for driving the water flow.

[0029] When using the product, add an appropriate amount of water to the first container 1, place the second container 2 containing rice grains into the first container 1 and place it on the guide device 4. The heating device 3 moderately heats the water in the first container 1 to the required soaking temperature for the rice grains. Then, the guide device 4 and the propeller 42 work to continuously guide the water flowing from the first container 1 into the guide channel 41 into the second container 2. The filter device 5 of the second container 2 slowly discharges the water, and the warm water is circulated into the second container 2. Thus, the rice grains in the second container 2 can be circulated and soaked and cooked at a certain water temperature as needed, thereby gelatinizing the sugar in the rice grains and achieving a rapid sugar removal effect.

[0030] According to some embodiments of this application, optionally, the filtration device 5 is provided with a plurality of filter holes on the second container 2. The filter hole structure effectively drains water out of the container without causing rice grains to be discharged.

[0031] According to some embodiments of this application, optionally, the second container 2 and the first container 1 are detachably assembled and connected together. This achieves a compact assembly structure for the rice cooker and facilitates disassembly and independent cleaning.

[0032] According to some embodiments of this application, optionally, the guide channel 41 is provided with an inlet channel 43 and an outlet channel 44 for introducing and drawing out water. The inlet channel 43 allows water from the first container 1 to flow into the second container 2, while the outlet channel 44 draws the rising water out of the guide channel 41.

[0033] According to some embodiments of this application, optionally, an inlet 6 is provided between the second container 2 and the guide channel 41, and is used for the outlet channel 44 to add water to the second container 2 through the inlet 6. The inlet 6 is connected to the outlet channel 44. The water guided by the water agitator 42 flows upward to the outlet channel 44, and the outlet channel 44 then guides the water to the inlet 6, thereby flowing into the second container 2, so that water can be continuously stored in the second container 2.

[0034] According to some embodiments of this application, optionally, the propeller 42 includes a water agitator 421 located in the flow channel 41 and a drive device 422 for driving the water agitator 421 to rotate. The drive device 422 controls the propeller 42 to rotate, so that the water flowing into the flow channel 41 from the first container 1 rises and can be guided upward to the second container 2.

[0035] According to some embodiments of this application, optionally, the flow guiding device 4 is detachably matched to the first container 1. This detachability not only makes installation more convenient but also provides greater installation adaptability, allowing for replacement as needed.

[0036] According to some embodiments of this application, optionally, the driving device 422 includes a motor 4221, a first magnet 4222 connected to the motor 4221, and a second magnet 4223 connected to the water agitator 4221. The first magnet 4222 and the second magnet 4223 are separated by a first container 1. The motor 4221 is mounted inside the rice cooker via a motor bracket 4224 and is located on the side of the first container 1. The second magnet 4223 is connected to the shaft of the water agitator 421, and the bracket of the water agitator 421 is detachably mounted in the first container 1. During operation, the motor 4221 is energized to drive the first magnet 4222 to rotate. Under the magnetic attraction between the first magnet 4222 and the second magnet 4223, the second magnet 4223 follows the first magnet 4222 in rotation, thereby causing the water agitator 4221 to rotate and thus stirring the water upwards.

[0037] According to some embodiments of this application, optionally, the motor 4221 and the first magnet 4222 are located outside the first container 1. This serves to prevent the motor 4221 from malfunctioning due to water contact.

[0038] According to some embodiments of this application, optionally, the rice cooker also includes a top cover 8, which is installed on the rice cooker. The top cover 8 has the function of sealing the rice cooker; the top cover 8 is provided with a vent 10 and a vent silicone 11, which have the function of venting and releasing pressure in the rice cooker.

[0039] According to some embodiments of this application, optionally, a guide vane 7 is installed above the second container 2, and the guide vane 7 is located above the water inlet 6. In order to prevent the upward flow of water guided by the water agitator 421 from being too forceful and spraying too high when entering the second container 2 from the water inlet 6, thus affecting the rice cooker accessories, the guide vane 7 above the water inlet 6, and the guide vane 7 being an arc plate, allows the upward flow of water to be guided into the second container 2 upon contact with the guide vane 7. This not only prevents the water from being sprayed too high, but also allows the water to be quickly splashed into the second container 2, thereby achieving rapid soaking of rice grains. Furthermore, the guide vane 7 is located on the lower side of the upper cover 8, in the optimal position above the water inlet 6, which can most effectively and quickly guide the upward flow of water into the second container 2.
