[0002] Toasters, as a common small kitchen appliance, are widely used for toasting bread slices, bringing great convenience to people's daily lives. Traditional toasters typically use a spring-loaded ejector to pop the toasted bread slices out of the toasting tray for easy access by the user.
[0003] However, this catapult-style structure has inherent drawbacks. Because the spring force is difficult to control precisely, in some cases, bread slices may fly directly out of the toaster due to excessive force, falling onto the countertop or even the floor, resulting in food waste and unnecessary cleaning hassles.
[0004] Furthermore, once toasting is complete, the top opening of the toaster is completely open. On one hand, the toasted bread slices cool down quickly, especially in cold weather, causing their texture to deteriorate rapidly; on the other hand, the open toasting tray is also prone to letting in dust and other debris, posing a potential threat to the internal hygiene of the equipment and affecting the user experience.
[0005] Therefore, this utility model proposes an intelligent toaster to address the shortcomings of existing technologies. Utility Model Content

[0009] The lifting assembly also includes a support rod for connecting the sliding block and the mounting plate. The support rod is fixedly connected to the sliding block via a connecting plate fixed to its lower end, and the upper end of the support rod is rotatably connected to the side of the mounting plate via a connector, thereby forming a complete transmission connection from the drive motor to the shielding assembly.
[0010] Preferably, the intelligent toaster also includes a servo motor fixed on the support rod, and the output end of the servo motor is connected to the connector for transmission.
[0011] Preferably, a snap-fit plate is fixed to one side of the shielding plate; a positioning baffle is slidably installed inside the mounting plate, and the snap-fit end of the positioning baffle is adapted to snap into the snap-fit plate.
[0012] Preferably, the outer surface of the mounting plate is provided with an adjustment groove, and a toggle plate connected to the positioning baffle is slidably installed in the adjustment groove.

[0027] Please refer to Figures 1 to 4 This utility model provides an intelligent toaster, which aims to solve the problems of bread slices falling off easily after toasting, inability to keep warm and prevent dust, inconvenience in handling and difficulty in cleaning in the prior art.
[0028] A smart toaster includes a toaster body 1 with a baking tray and mounting frames 2 fixedly connected to both sides of the toaster body 1. The smart toaster also includes a shielding assembly located above the toaster body 1, consisting of a mounting plate 206 and a shielding plate 208 detachably mounted below the mounting plate 206. The shielding assembly is used to close the top opening of the toaster body 1 during baking. To achieve automated movement of the shielding assembly, the smart toaster also includes a lifting assembly for driving the shielding assembly to rise and fall. The power source for the lifting assembly is a drive motor 201 fixedly connected to the bottom of the mounting frames 2. The lifting assembly also includes a one-way lead screw 204 rotatably mounted inside the mounting frames 2 and driven by the output end of the drive motor 201. 204 is used to convert the rotational motion of the drive motor 201 into linear driving force; the lifting assembly also includes a sliding block 202 threadedly connected to the one-way lead screw 204, the sliding block 202 reciprocating in the up and down direction within the mounting frame 2 as the one-way lead screw 204 rotates; the lifting assembly also includes a support rod 205 for connecting the sliding block 202 and the mounting plate 206, the support rod 205 is fixedly connected to the sliding block 202 through a connecting plate 203 fixed to the lower end of the support rod 205, thereby transmitting the linear motion of the sliding block 202 to the support rod 205; the upper end of the support rod 205 is rotatably connected to the side of the mounting plate 206 through a connector 207, and this rotatable connection structure provides a pivoting basis for the subsequent flipping action of the mounting plate 206.
[0029] In addition, to further improve the functionality of this utility model and enhance the user experience, the toaster also includes an electric heating element 209 as the core heating element. The electric heating element 209 is disposed on both sides of the baking slot inside the toaster body 1. The function of the electric heating element 209 is to heat the bread slices in the slot after the baffle plate 208 is lowered to close the baking space. In addition, a buzzer 6 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the mounting plate 206. The buzzer 6 is electrically connected to the internal control circuit and can emit a warning sound after baking is completed or a preset time is reached, so as to remind the user to take it out in time and avoid the bread slices from spoiling or losing their taste.
[0030] In a preferred embodiment, in order to enable the automatic flipping of the mounting plate 206 for easy bread retrieval, the toaster has a servo motor 5 fixed on one of the support rods 205, and the output end of the servo motor 5 is connected to the corresponding connector 207 for transmission.
[0031] As another preferred embodiment, in order to enable the quick removal of the shield 208 for easy cleaning, a smart toaster is provided with a removal mechanism.
[0032] Specifically, a snap-fit plate 3 is fixed to one side of the baffle plate 208, and a positioning baffle 301 is slidably installed inside the mounting plate 206. The snap-fit end of the positioning baffle 301 can snap into the snap-fit plate 3. To enable manual unlocking, an adjustment groove 303 is provided on the outer surface of the mounting plate 206. A toggle plate 304 that is slidably installed in the adjustment groove 303 and is connected to the positioning baffle 301. To ensure automatic reset after unlocking, a spring 302 is connected between the two positioning baffles 301. To ensure the stability of the positioning baffle 301 when sliding, a limit post 401 is fixed on the mounting plate 206, and a limit groove 4 is provided on the positioning baffle 301 for the limit post 401 to slide through.
[0033] As another preferred embodiment, in order to heat the bread slices inside the toaster body 1, electric heating elements 209 are provided on both sides of the internal baking slot of the toaster body 1.
[0034] As another preferred embodiment, in order to remind the user after baking is complete, a smart toaster has a buzzer 6 fixed on the mounting plate 206.
[0035] Working principle: When baking is required, the drive motor 201 starts and drives the one-way screw 204 to rotate. The sliding block 202, which is threaded onto the one-way screw 204, slides downward in the mounting frame 2. The sliding block 202 drives the support rod 205 to move down synchronously through the connecting plate 203. The support rod 205 then drives the mounting plate 206 and the baffle plate 208, which are rotatably connected through the connector 207, to fall down as a whole. Finally, the baffle plate 208 contacts the top opening of the toaster body 1 to form a closed space. At the same time, the electric heating elements 209 set on both sides of the baking groove inside the toaster body 1 start to heat up.
[0036] After baking, the drive motor 201 rotates in the opposite direction, causing the mounting plate 206 and the shield 208 to rise to the preset height. Then, the servo motor 5 fixed on the support rod 205 starts, and the output end of the servo motor 5 drives the connector 207 to rotate, thereby causing the mounting plate 206 to flip over and completely remove the shield 208 from the top opening of the toaster body 1, making it convenient for the user to take out the bread slices. During this process, the buzzer 6 fixed on the mounting plate 206 can emit a prompt sound.
[0037] When the baffle 208 needs to be cleaned, the user slides the actuating plate 304 along the adjusting groove 303 on the mounting plate 206. The actuating plate 304 drives the positioning baffle 301 to move against the spring force of the spring 302, so that the snap-fit end of the positioning baffle 301 is disengaged from the snap-fit plate 3 on one side of the baffle 208, thus separating the baffle 208 from the mounting plate 206. During the entire sliding process of the positioning baffle 301, the limiting post 401 fixed on the mounting plate 206 always slides within the limiting groove 4 of the positioning baffle 301, providing stable guidance for the movement of the positioning baffle 301.
