[0012] Please see Figures 1-5This utility model discloses a steamer cabinet with easily detachable steam racks, comprising a main body 1, a door 2 at the front end of the main body 1, a storage compartment 3 inside the main body 1, multiple steam rack bodies 7 inside the storage compartment 3, two clamping plates 4 symmetrically arranged on the left and right sides inside the storage compartment 3, and the clamping plates 4 can slide within the storage compartment 3, a push rod 13 penetrating the main body 1 is provided in the middle part of the clamping plate 4, and a vertical rod 11 is vertically provided at the outer end of the push rod 13. The top of the steamer body 1 is provided with a top tube 12, and the upper end of the steamer body 1 is provided with a box body 10. A rotating shaft 14 is rotatably provided on the box body 10. Both ends of the rotating shaft 14 are provided with threaded rods 15 that are inserted into the top tube 12. The two threaded rods 15 have a reverse thread structure. The middle part of the rotating shaft 14 is provided with a driven bevel gear 17 located inside the box body 10. A motor 16 is provided on the rear side of the box body 10. The output end of the motor 16 is provided with a drive bevel gear 18 that meshes with the driven bevel gear 17. The inner side of the clamping plate 4 is provided with a plurality of grooves 6, and the two sides of the steam rack body 7 are inserted into the grooves 6.

[0013] In this embodiment, the bottom end of the vertical rod 11 is fixed to the outer end of the push rod 13 by screws.

[0014] In the catering industry and home kitchens, steamers are commonly used cooking equipment, and the design of their steaming racks directly affects the convenience of use and the ease of cleaning. This utility model relates to a steamer with easily disassembled steaming racks, which innovatively addresses the problems of inconvenient disassembly and difficult cleaning of traditional steamer racks. Its working principle and beneficial effects will be explained in detail below.

[0015] (I) Installation and fixing principle of steaming rack: This steamer mainly consists of several components, including the main body 1, cabinet door 2, placement compartment 3, clamping plate 4, guide rail 5, groove 6, and steam rack body 7. When installing the steam rack body 7, first align both sides of the steam rack body 7 with the groove 6 inside the clamping plate 4 and insert it. When it is necessary to fix the steam rack body 7, start the motor 16. The output end of the motor 16 drives the drive bevel gear 18 to rotate. Since the drive bevel gear 18 meshes with the driven bevel gear 17, the driven bevel gear 17 rotates accordingly, thereby driving the rotating shaft 14 to rotate.

[0016] When the rotating shaft 14 rotates, the threaded rod 15 rotates inside the top tube 12. Since the top tube 12 is fixedly connected to the vertical rod 11, and the vertical rod 11 is connected to the push rod 13, and the push rod 13 is fixed to the clamping plate 4, the rotation of the threaded rod 15 will cause the two clamping plates 4 to move towards each other inside the placement chamber 3, thereby clamping and fixing the steam rack body 7, so that the two sides of the steam rack body 7 are tightly fixed in the groove 6, ensuring that the steam rack remains stable during the operation of the steamer and avoiding the impact of shaking on the steaming effect of the food.

[0017] (II) Principle of Steamer Rack Disassembly: When it is necessary to disassemble the steam rack body 7, the motor 16 is restarted to reverse its direction. The reverse rotation of the motor 16 drives the drive bevel gear 18 to rotate in the opposite direction, and the driven bevel gear 17 and the rotating shaft 14 also rotate in the opposite direction. At this time, the threaded rods 15 at both ends of the rotating shaft 14 rotate in the opposite direction, causing the two clamping plates 4 to move backward along the inside of the placement chamber 3, and the sides of the steam rack body 7 gradually loosen in the groove 6. After loosening to a certain extent, the steam rack body 7 can be easily removed from the steamer body 1 by pulling out the steam rack body 7. This design avoids the cumbersome operation of disassembling the traditional steam rack using bolts, clips and other fixing methods that require tools, greatly improving the convenience of disassembling the steam rack.

[0018] (III) Principle of adjusting the spacing of the steaming racks: In practical use, it is sometimes necessary to temporarily adjust the spacing between multiple steaming rack bodies 7 according to the size and quantity of ingredients. This steamer is designed with this need in mind; simply inserting the steaming rack body 7 into the designated groove 6 allows for spacing adjustment. Because the clamping plate 4 has multiple grooves 6, users can flexibly choose the installation position of the steaming rack body 7 according to the actual situation, making operation simple and convenient, and meeting different cooking needs.

[0019] (iv) Principles for enhancing stability and installation firmness: In this embodiment, multiple guide rails 5 are symmetrically arranged at the top and bottom of the placement chamber 3, and the upper and lower ends of the clamping plate 4 can slide along the guide rails 5.

[0020] To improve the stability of the clamping plate 4 during movement, multiple guide rails 5 are symmetrically arranged at the top and bottom of the placement chamber 3, allowing the upper and lower ends of the clamping plate 4 to slide along the guide rails 5. The guide rails 5 provide stable guidance for the movement of the clamping plate 4, making the clamping plate 4 move more smoothly and avoiding deviation or shaking, thus ensuring the clamping effect on the steam rack body 7 and the smoothness of the disassembly process.

[0021] In this embodiment, the inner wall of the groove 6 is provided with anti-slip texture, the rear side of the placement chamber 3 is provided with a plurality of positioning holes 8, the rear side of the steam rack body 7 is provided with a plurality of insert rods 9 inserted into the positioning holes 8, the interior of the positioning hole 8 is provided with a magnetic block, and the magnetic block and the insert rod 9 are magnetically attracted to each other.

[0022] Meanwhile, to ensure a more secure installation of the steam rack body 7, anti-slip textures are provided on the inner wall of the groove 6. These textures increase the friction between the groove 6 and the steam rack body 7, further preventing the steam rack body 7 from sliding within the groove 6. Furthermore, the rear side of the placement compartment 3 has multiple positioning holes 8, and the rear side of the steam rack body 7 has multiple insertion rods 9 that insert into the positioning holes 8. The positioning holes 8 contain magnetic blocks that magnetically engage with the insertion rods 9. When the steam rack body 7 is inserted into the groove 6, the insertion rods 9 are inserted into the positioning holes 8, and the magnetic blocks and insertion rods 9 attract each other, effectively fixing the steam rack body 7 in the front-to-back direction. This significantly enhances the stability of the installation of the steam rack body 7, ensuring that the steam rack body 7 will not shift during operation and improving safety.

[0023] (a) Convenient and quick disassembly and installation: This steamer uses a motor 16 to drive the opening and closing of the clamping plate 4 to fix and disassemble the steam rack body 7. Operation is simple and convenient, requiring no tools. Compared to traditional steamers that use bolts and clips for fixing the steam racks, this design saves significant time and effort when disassembling and installing the racks. Even with multiple steam racks, there's no need to remove the upper rack before disassembling the lower one; each rack can be disassembled and installed independently, greatly improving work efficiency. This design is particularly suitable for the catering industry, allowing for quick rack replacement and cleaning during peak hours, thus increasing food service speed.

[0024] (ii) Easy to clean and ensures hygiene: Because the steam rack body 7 is easy to disassemble, users can easily remove it from the steamer for thorough cleaning. In traditional steamers, food residue and condensation tend to accumulate at the connection between the steam rack and the steamer, making cleaning difficult and potentially causing hygiene problems over time. This steamer's design simplifies the connection between the steam rack and the steamer, eliminating hard-to-clean corners. Users can thoroughly clean the steam rack, ensuring the cleanliness of the steamer's interior and providing a healthier cooking environment.
