[0016] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0017] Please see Figures 1-6 As shown, a cooking robot includes a main body 1, a wok 5, and a posture adjustment device 10.

[0018] The wok 5 has a cylindrical hollow structure with a first opening 501 on its circumference. Rotating shafts are located on both the left and right ends of the wok 5, with the central axis of the rotating shafts coinciding with the central axis of the wok 5. The wok 5 is equipped with a baffle 6 connected to the edge of the first opening 501 to facilitate the feeding of ingredients into the wok 5 through the first opening 501, or the unloading of dishes through the first opening 501.

[0019] The main body 1 has a cooking cavity, and its front side has a second opening 101 communicating with the cooking cavity, and its top has a third opening 102 communicating with the cooking cavity. Specifically, the main body 1 is a sheet metal + frame structure, and the interior of each side wall can be used as a mounting chamber for various components. The second opening 101 serves as a dish outlet channel, and the third opening 102 serves as a food ingredient delivery channel.

[0020] The wok 5 is rotatably mounted between the left and right side walls of the cooking cavity in the main body 1 via the rotating shafts provided on its left and right end faces.

[0021] The posture adjustment device 10 is installed in the main body 1 and is connected to the rotating shaft of the wok 5. It is used to drive the wok 5 to rotate in the cooking cavity to adjust the orientation of the first opening 501 on the wok 5.

[0022] In addition, it includes a heating device connected to the wok 5 for heating the wok 5; it also includes a stirring rib and a stirring drive device 11. The stirring rib is rotatably disposed inside the wok 5, and its rotation axis coincides with the central axis of the wok 5. The stirring drive device 11 is disposed in the main body 1 and is connected to the stirring rib. Specifically, a rotating shaft provided on one end face of the wok 5 has a through hole, and the stirring drive device 11 is connected to the rotating shaft of the stirring rib through the through hole.

[0023] According to the above design, when the wok 5 is in the stir-frying posture, the first opening 501 on the wok 5 is adjusted so that it faces upward. After the ingredients are put into the wok 5 through the first opening 501, the wok 5 is heated by the heating device. At the same time, the ingredients are stir-fried by the stirring rib. When the wok 5 is in the serving posture, a plate is placed in advance through the second opening 101 on the main body 1. The wok 5 is adjusted so that the first opening 501 on the wok 5 faces the second opening 101 on the main body 1 (slanted downward), and the automatic serving is completed.

[0024] Preferably, the wok 5 is equipped with a baffle 7, and an electromagnet assembly 8 is provided on the inner wall of the cooking cavity in the main body 1. When the first opening 501 on the wok 5 is vertically upward, the baffle 7 and the electromagnet assembly 8 abut against each other. After the electromagnet assembly 8 is energized, it can attract the baffle 7, thereby keeping the wok 5 in the cooking posture stable and preventing it from shaking.

[0025] It should be noted that the control part of the electromagnet assembly 8 is existing technology and will not be described in detail here.

[0026] In this embodiment, for example, the baffle 7 is connected to the enclosure 6.

[0027] More preferably, a limiting mechanism 9 is provided on the inner wall of the cooking cavity in the main body 1, and when the first opening 501 on the wok 5 is vertically downward, the baffle 7 abuts against the limiting mechanism 9. After the baffle 7 abuts against the limiting mechanism 9, the wok 5 in the washing posture can be physically limited to prevent the rotation of the wok 5 from exceeding the preset value.

[0028] The above technical solution also includes a food dispensing device 2, which is located on the top of the main body 1 and is used to dispense food into the wok 5 through the second opening 102 provided on the main body 1.

[0029] In this embodiment, for example, the food dispensing device 2, in conjunction with the food box pre-loaded with food ingredients, automatically dispenses the food ingredients into the wok 5.

[0030] The above technical solution also includes a pot washing system, which includes a valve body 12, a booster pump 13 and several cleaning nozzles 3. The valve body 12 is connected between the pump inlet of the booster pump 13 and the water source. The pump outlet of the booster pump 13 is connected to each cleaning nozzle 3. The cleaning nozzles 3 are arranged at the bottom of the cooking chamber in the main body 1. Figure 6 The pipe between valve body 12, booster pump 13 and cleaning nozzle 3 is not shown.

[0031] The main body 1 has a water tank 103 at the bottom of the cooking cavity, and the water tank 103 has a drain outlet. The water tank 103 is used to collect the wastewater from rinsing the wok 5. The water tank 103 has a filter screen 4, which is used to filter food residue and prevent the drain outlet from being blocked.

[0032] According to the above design, when the wok 5 is in the washing position, the first opening 501 on the wok 5 is adjusted so that it faces downwards, the valve body 12 is opened, water is introduced and pressurized by the booster pump 13, and then sprayed out from the cleaning nozzle 3 to rinse the wok 5. To ensure the washing effect, the stirring ribs can rotate synchronously at this time.

[0033] It should be noted that, in order to achieve manual and / or automatic control, a control display screen for human-machine interaction is also included. The control display screen is installed on the host 1 and is electrically connected to the food feeding device 2, heating device, stirring drive device 11, posture adjustment device 12, electromagnet assembly 8, valve body 12 and booster pump 13.

[0034] In summary, this utility model rotates the wok 5 within the cooking cavity and drives the wok 5 to rotate within the cooking cavity via the posture adjustment device 10. This adjusts the orientation of the first opening 501 on the wok 5, enabling automatic switching between the cooking posture and the serving posture, thus achieving automatic serving. Simultaneously, a baffle 7 and an electromagnet assembly 8 are added to the inner walls of the wok 5 and the cooking cavity, respectively. When the first opening 501 on the wok 5 is vertically upward, the baffle 7 and the electromagnet assembly 8 abut against each other. According to the above design, the electromagnet assembly 8 can attract the baffle 7 after being energized, thereby keeping the wok 5 stable in the cooking posture and preventing it from shaking.

[0035] Of course, the above are only preferred embodiments of this utility model and are not intended to limit the scope of application of this utility model. Therefore, any equivalent changes made to the principle of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
