[0022] Reference Figure 1 , 2 As shown in Figure 3, the insulated lunch box provided in the embodiment of this utility model includes a box body 100, a heating element 200, and a lunch box lid 300. The box body 100 has a receiving cavity 110 and a bowl receiving groove 120 with an upper opening. The receiving cavity 110 is located between the first bottom surface 121 of the bowl receiving groove 120 and the second bottom surface 130 of the box body 100. The first bottom surface 121 has a water inlet hole 1211, and the second bottom surface 130 has a water outlet hole 131 located below the water inlet hole 1211. The receiving cavity 110 is provided with a drainage part 140 corresponding to the position of the water inlet hole 1211. The drainage part 140 has a drainage channel 141 communicating with the water inlet hole 1211 and the water outlet hole 131 respectively. The heating element 200 is located in the receiving cavity 110 and is located on one side of the drainage part 140. The lunch box lid 300 is installed on the top of the box body 100.

[0023] The first bottom surface 121 of the bowl holding slot 120 has a water inlet hole 1211, and the second bottom surface 130 of the box body 100 has a water outlet hole 131. The water inlet hole 1211 is connected to the water outlet hole 131 through the drainage channel 141 of the drainage part 140. The heating element 200 is installed on one side of the drainage part 140. When there is liquid in the bowl holding slot 120, the liquid can be discharged out of the insulated lunch box through the water inlet hole 1211, the drainage channel 141 and the water outlet hole 131. Moreover, due to the structural barrier of the drainage part 140, the liquid will not come into contact with the heating element 200, thereby avoiding the risk of electric leakage.

[0024] like Figure 4 , 5 As shown, when using, remove the lunchbox lid 300, place the inner bowl 500 containing the ingredients into the bowl receiving slot 120, and then close the lunchbox lid 300. Figure 1As shown, when the heating element 200 is activated, it heats the first bottom surface 121, which then transfers heat to the inner bowl 500 to keep the food inside warm. When the liquid in the inner bowl 500 flows out, it is discharged from the insulated lunch box through the water inlet 1211, the drain channel 141, and the water outlet 131. Since the liquid enters the drain channel 141 through the water inlet 1211, it will not come into contact with the heating element 200 or other electronic components in the accommodating cavity 110.

[0025] Furthermore, such as Figure 3 As shown, the drainage channel 141 extends in the vertical direction, thus forming a vertical drainage channel 141, which facilitates the discharge of liquid.

[0026] Furthermore, such as Figure 3 , 6 As shown, the horizontal cross-sectional area of ​​the drainage channel 141 is larger than the horizontal cross-sectional area of ​​the inlet hole 1211 and the horizontal cross-sectional area of ​​the outlet hole 131. In the vertical direction, the inlet hole 1211 and the outlet hole 131 are located in the middle of the drainage channel 141.

[0027] The drainage channel 141, the inlet hole 1211, and the outlet hole 131 adopt the above design, that is, the drainage channel 141 is larger in size and the inlet hole 1211 is smaller in size. During the liquid flow process, the drainage channel 141 has a relatively wide cross-section, which can provide a larger flow space, while the inlet hole 1211 is relatively narrow, so that the liquid flowing in from the inlet hole 1211 can flow smoothly and centrally into the drainage channel 141 and will not flow to other places.

[0028] Furthermore, such as Figure 3 As shown, the second bottom surface 130 is provided with a blocking member 150. The blocking member 150 is located inside the drainage channel 141 and directly above the water outlet 131. There is a flow channel 142 between the blocking member 150 and the second bottom surface 130. The flow channel 142 is connected to the drainage channel 141 and the water outlet 131 respectively.

[0029] By providing a blocking element 150, foreign objects from the outside of the insulated lunch box are prevented from entering the drainage channel 141 through the water outlet 131 and affecting drainage.

[0030] During drainage, the liquid in the drainage channel 141 is discharged out of the insulated lunch box through the flow channel 142 and the water outlet 131.

[0031] Specifically, the blocking member 150 and the second bottom surface 130 can be connected together by a number of reinforcing ribs, so that the blocking member 150 can be located directly above the water outlet 131.

[0032] Furthermore, such as Figure 1As shown, it also includes a battery 400, which is located inside the accommodating cavity 110 and on one side of the drain section 140, and is located below the heating element 200.

[0033] The battery 400 is located inside the accommodating cavity 110 and below the heating element 200 to make the structure inside the accommodating cavity 110 compact.

[0034] Specifically, a circuit board is also installed inside the accommodating cavity 110, and the circuit board is connected to the battery 400 and the heating element 200 respectively.

[0035] Furthermore, such as Figure 1 As shown, the accommodating cavity 110 has a battery compartment 410 and a battery cover 420 covering the top of the battery compartment 410. The battery compartment 410 and the battery cover 420 are located on one side of the drainage section 140, as shown. Figure 7 As shown, battery 400 is placed inside battery slot 410, as Figure 1 As shown, the upper and lower surfaces of the battery cover 420 are provided with heat insulation components 430, and the heat insulation component 430 on the upper surface of the battery cover 420 is located between the battery cover 420 and the heating element 200.

[0036] By setting two heat insulation components 430, heat from the heating element 200 is prevented from being transferred to the battery 400.

[0037] Furthermore, such as Figure 2 As shown, there are multiple water inlets 1211, water outlets 131, and drainage sections 140. The multiple water inlets 1211 are spaced apart on the first bottom surface 121, and the positions of the multiple water outlets 131 and the multiple drainage sections 140 correspond one-to-one with the positions of the multiple water inlets 1211.

[0038] Multiple water inlet holes 1211, water outlet holes 131, and drainage sections 140 are provided to make it easier to drain the liquid in the bowl holding slot 120 out of the insulated lunch box.

[0039] Furthermore, such as Figure 4 , 8 As shown, the housing 100 includes a support 160, a heating plate 170, and a base 180. The base 180 has an upper-opening mounting cavity 181, as shown... Figure 2 As shown, the heating plate 170 is located in the mounting cavity 181 and is placed on top of multiple drainage sections 140. The support 160 is ring-shaped and located in the mounting cavity 181. The top of the support 160 is fixedly connected to the top of the base 180. The bottom of the support 160 abuts against the heating plate 170. The support 160 and the heating plate 170 together form a bowl receiving groove 120. The water inlet hole 1211 is located on the heating plate 170, the water outlet hole 131 is located on the bottom of the base 180, the heating element 200 is located on the heating plate 170, and the drainage section 140 is located on the base 180.

[0040] The box body 100 is disassembled into a support 160, a heating plate 170, and a base 180 so that they can be manufactured separately and are easy to process.

[0041] Understandably, after the top of the support 160 is fixedly connected to the top of the base 180, the bottom of the support 160 rests against the heating plate 170, and the bottom of the support 160 and the heating plate 170 are sealed together, thereby preventing liquid from entering the mounting cavity 181 through the gap between them.

[0042] It is understandable that the receiving cavity 110 is a part of the mounting cavity 181.

[0043] Understandably, the heating plate 170 serves to conduct heat and support the heating element 200.

[0044] Furthermore, the lunchbox lid 300 is snapped into the box body 100, making it easy to install and remove the lunchbox lid 300.

[0045] Furthermore, the insulation component 430 is made of insulation cotton, providing even better insulation.

[0046] Although the technical solutions of this utility model have been shown and described, those skilled in the art will understand that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these technical solutions without departing from the principles and spirit of this utility model, the scope of which is defined by the claims and their equivalents.
