Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of kitchen appliance technology, and more specifically, to a baking pan and cooking equipment for cooking. Background Technology

[0002] With the increasing popularity of cooking equipment, more and more users are using it to cook food. Compared to traditional stovetops, all-in-one appliances are not only easier to operate and provide stable temperatures, but they also eliminate the need for open flames, making them relatively safer. However, existing all-in-one appliances often have a drawback: the food needs to be frequently flipped during cooking. Taking roasted lamb chops as an example, to ensure even heating, users need to flip the lamb chops every five minutes, often repeating this process multiple times, which is cumbersome.

[0003] At the same time, because the heating temperature of the all-in-one machine is high when roasting lamb chops (often around 200°C), users are at risk of being burned during the flipping process, which is not safe.

[0004] At the same time, when users open the flip panel of the all-in-one machine during cooking, heat will be lost from the cavity, which not only wastes energy, but may also affect the overall cooking effect and result in poor taste of the food.

[0005] Although some all-in-one machines are equipped with a rotating roasting fork structure, this structure is often only suitable for ingredients such as whole chickens and meat skewers. It is not suitable for ingredients such as lamb chops, which have a larger surface area and are relatively thin. Utility Model Content

Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, and not all embodiments. The components of the embodiments of this utility model described and shown in the accompanying drawings can generally be arranged and designed in various different configurations.

[0022] Therefore, the following detailed description of the embodiments of the present invention provided in the accompanying drawings is not intended to limit the scope of the claimed invention, but merely to illustrate selected embodiments of the invention. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without inventive effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0023] It should be noted that similar labels and letters in the following figures indicate similar items. Therefore, once an item is defined in one figure, it does not need to be further defined and explained in subsequent figures.

[0024] In the description of this utility model, it should be noted that if terms such as "upper," "lower," "inner," or "outer" are used to indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings, or the orientation or positional relationship in which the utility model product is usually placed during use, they are only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be construed as a limitation of this utility model.

[0025] Furthermore, the terms "first" and "second" are used only to distinguish descriptions and should not be interpreted as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0026] It should be noted that, where there is no conflict, the features in the embodiments of this utility model can be combined with each other.

[0027] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 This embodiment provides a baking pan for a cooking device, which works with the cooking device and includes: Disc body mechanism 10 and tilting mechanism 20; The cooking equipment has side walls, and a flipping mechanism 20 is mounted on the side walls; The plate body mechanism 10 has a receiving cavity 11 for holding food ingredients 30; the flipping mechanism 20 is rotatably connected to the plate body mechanism 10.

[0028] The baking pan mechanism 10 of this design has a receiving cavity 11 that can accommodate food 30, thus ensuring the stability of the food 30 during steaming and baking. The flipping mechanism 20 is connected to the baking pan mechanism 10 to flip the baking pan mechanism 10, thereby causing the food 30 in the receiving cavity 11 to also flip. This allows the food 30 to be automatically flipped during cooking, avoiding the inconvenience of manual operation and the risk of burns. It also ensures that the cooking process is not interrupted, preventing heat loss from the cavity, and also makes the cooking effect of the food 30 better.

[0029] It should be noted that when the all-in-one machine is actually cooking, the temperature of the upper part is always higher than that of the lower part. By constantly flipping the food during the cooking process, the food can be heated more evenly, resulting in better cooking results. In order to ensure the best cooking effect for each type of food, various types of plate mechanisms 10 can be configured for users in advance. The different plate mechanisms 10 have different hole diameters to adapt to the different characteristics of the food.

[0030] Furthermore, the plate mechanism 10 in this solution can be of different types, such as a hollow baking plate or a flat baking plate. Different types of baking plates can adapt to different ingredients 30. At the same time, the flipping process itself can be automatically controlled according to different recipes, using different flipping methods to ensure the best cooking effect for the ingredients 30. In addition, the system can also intelligently adjust the flipping time to avoid oil splattering and affecting the cooking process.

[0031] Please continue reading. Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 To learn more about the structural details of the baking pan used in cooking equipment.

[0032] As shown in the figure, in an optional embodiment, the plate mechanism 10 is provided with a rotating shaft 200, and the flipping mechanism 20 is connected to the rotating shaft 200 to drive the plate mechanism 10 to rotate along the rotating shaft 200 and thus flip it. In this way, the rotating shaft 200 drives the plate mechanism 10 to rotate, thereby flipping the plate mechanism 10 and the food 30, achieving uniform steaming and baking of the food 30. At the same time, the rotation action also has the advantages of requiring little movement space and being flexible in operation.

[0033] It is not difficult to understand that in other embodiments of this utility model, the disc mechanism 10 can also tilt and flip under the drive of the flipping mechanism 20, and is not limited to flipping by self-rotation. This is just an example and is not limited in specific terms.

[0034] In an optional embodiment, a rotating shaft 200 is provided at each end of the disc mechanism 10 along its length, and the two rotating shafts 200 are arranged collinearly; at least one rotating shaft 200 is connected to the flipping mechanism 20 in a transmission manner. In this way, the two rotating shafts 200 support the two ends of the disc mechanism 10 respectively, thereby making the disc mechanism 10 more stable when flipping.

[0035] Furthermore, the side wall of the cooking device is provided with two support parts that cooperate with the rotating shaft 200, and the rotating shaft 200 is rotatably mounted on the corresponding support part. Optionally, the support part can be a support hole on the side wall of the cooking device, or it can be a support bearing.

[0036] Optionally, the flipping mechanism 20 is a motor. The rotating shaft 200 can be inserted into the corresponding support hole inside the cooking device and connected to the motor inside the support hole. As the motor inside the support hole starts working, the rotating shaft 200 will also rotate, thereby driving the plate mechanism 10 to rotate. If the user does not need to use the rotation function, the system can simply turn off the motor, and the baking pan can then be used normally for regular steaming, baking, and microwaving cooking modes.

[0037] In an optional embodiment, the plate mechanism 10 includes at least one receiving plate 100, which has a receiving cavity 11; the rotating shaft 200 is disposed on the receiving plate 100. It is understood that when only the receiving plate 100 is present, the food 30 can be fixed to the receiving plate 100 by means of binding, threading, etc., so as to ensure the stability of the food 30 during the flipping process of the plate mechanism 10.

[0038] As shown in the figure, in this embodiment, the plate mechanism 10 includes two receiving plates 100; each receiving plate 100 has a recess 130, and the recesses 130 of the two receiving plates 100 are arranged opposite to each other to jointly enclose and form a receiving cavity 11; the two receiving plates 100 are detachably connected. In this way, the recesses 130 of the two receiving plates 100 enclose and form a closed receiving cavity 11 to ensure that the food 30 can be stably placed in the receiving cavity 11, thereby ensuring the stability of the food 30 during the flipping action.

[0039] thereby Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 As can be seen, optionally, the receiving plate 100 includes a flange 110, a frame 120, and a recess 130. The flange 110 has a ring-shaped structure, the top of the frame 120 is connected to the flange 110, and the bottom of the frame 120 is connected to the recess 130. When two receiving plates 100 are connected, the corresponding two flanges 110 remain close to each other, and the corresponding two recesses 130 remain far apart to enclose and form a receiving cavity 11.

[0040] Furthermore, one receiving plate 100 is named chassis 101, and the other receiving plate 100 is named top cover 102. Rotating shafts 200 are located at both ends of the chassis 101 along its length. The chassis 101 and top cover 102 have largely the same shape and structure.

[0041] As can also be seen from the figure, in an optional embodiment, one receiving plate 100 is provided with a snap-fit ​​structure 300, which engages with another receiving plate 100. Specifically, in this embodiment, the top cover 102 is provided with a snap-fit ​​structure 300, which engages with the edge of the chassis 101.

[0042] It should be noted that the snap-fit ​​structure 300 can be a common mechanical snap-fit ​​or spring lock, or an electronic electromagnetic lock. The purpose of the snap-fit ​​structure 300 is to secure the upper and lower receiving trays 100 together after the user has placed the food 30, preventing them from easily falling off. Therefore, the specific type and location of the snap-fit ​​structure 300 are not limited, as long as it meets the securing requirements.

[0043] In an optional embodiment, snap-fit ​​structures 300 are respectively disposed at both ends of the receiving plate 100. This ensures that both ends of the receiving plate 100 can be easily disassembled. It is easy to understand that in other embodiments of this utility model, one end of the receiving plate 100 may be fixed or hinged, and the other end may be connected by snap-fit. This is merely an example and is not limited to any specific embodiment.

[0044] In an optional embodiment, the bottom of the recess 130 is provided with a plurality of cutouts 133. This makes the pan body mechanism 10 form a cutout baking pan.

[0045] In an optional embodiment, the bottom of the recessed portion 130 of the receiving plate 100 has an opening 131, and a wire mesh structure 132 is provided on the opening 131; the intersections of the wire mesh structure 132 enclose a hollow opening 133.

[0046] Furthermore, the bottom of the plate body 10 is a perforated structure formed by interwoven metal wire mesh, with numerous holes between the wire mesh openings. The size of these holes can be controlled according to the density and spacing of the wire mesh. In actual use, multiple perforated baking pans with different hole diameters can be prepared and adjusted according to the user's needs. For example, when steaming or roasting meat, a perforated baking pan with a larger hole diameter should be used to ensure better heating of the bottom of the food 30 and to allow for timely oil drainage. Conversely, if steaming or roasting fragile ingredients 30, such as fish fillets or tofu, a perforated baking pan with a smaller hole diameter can be used to ensure even heating and prevent the food 30 from breaking.

[0047] When using this appliance, it's important to understand that although most all-in-one ovens now have heating elements at both the top and bottom of the cavity, working together to ensure even heating of the food (30), in actual use, the upper part of the food (30) often gets hotter, while the bottom remains too cold. There are two main reasons for this: first, because the food (30) is in direct contact with the bottom of the baking tray, this part of the tray hinders the food from receiving heat from the bottom heating elements (even with a mesh baking tray, the heating effect will be affected); second, due to air convection, hot air naturally rises and cold air naturally sinks, causing heat to concentrate at the top of the oven cavity. Therefore, the upper part of the food (30) naturally heats up better. Another reason is that users often place a layer of aluminum foil at the bottom of the all-in-one machine when cooking oily ingredients (such as lamb chops). The aluminum foil prevents dripping grease from directly contacting the machine's cavity, thus avoiding excessive fumes, and also makes cleaning easier. However, the aluminum foil also affects the heating efficiency of the lower heating element, resulting in poorer heating of the bottom of the food.

[0048] For ease of explanation, the upper part of ingredient 30 is marked with a dotted line, indicating that this part receives stronger heat; while the lower part and sides of ingredient 30 are indicated with solid lines, indicating that this part receives relatively less heat.

[0049] Please see Figure 5 and Figure 6 As can be seen from the figure, since there are baking tray structures above and below the food 30, the baking tray can eliminate the obstruction of the food 30 to heating to a certain extent, so that the overall heating efficiency of the food 30 tends to be consistent. After the baking pan is flipped (half a turn), as shown in the picture, the original top cover 102 is now at the bottom, while the bottom plate 101 is at the top of the all-in-one machine. The food 30 will also fall naturally into the bottom plate 101 due to gravity. At this point, the upper part of the food 30, which originally received more heat, becomes the bottom, while the lower-heated bottom becomes the upper part. Through this process, the food 30 is automatically flipped, making the heating process more even.

[0050] Secondly, this utility model provides a cooking device, which includes a baking pan as described in any of the foregoing embodiments. Such a cooking device has the advantages of being easy to operate, adaptable to different steaming and baking modes, and providing better steaming and baking results.

[0051] In summary, this utility model provides a baking pan and a cooking device for cooking equipment, which have at least the following advantages: 1. The baking pan mechanism 10 is divided into two parts: a top cover 102 and a base 101. The two parts can be fixed together by a snap-fit ​​structure 300. The ingredients 30 can be placed in the receiving cavity 11 formed by the two parts of the baking pan and will flip as the baking pan is turned over. 2. When cooking in an all-in-one machine, the temperature of the upper part is always higher than that of the lower part. By constantly flipping the food during the cooking process, the food can be heated more evenly, resulting in better cooking results. 3. In order to ensure the best cooking effect for each ingredient 30, various types of plate mechanisms 10 can be configured for users in advance. Different plate mechanisms 10 have different hole diameters, which can be adapted to the different characteristics of ingredients 30.

[0052] The above are merely specific embodiments of this utility model, but the protection scope of this utility model is not limited thereto. Any variations or substitutions that can be easily conceived by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of this utility model should be determined by the scope of the claims.
