Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of kitchen equipment technology, and in particular to a wire protection structure and cooking equipment. Background Technology

[0002] Current cooking equipment, such as smart cooking devices, typically requires two rotating components to accommodate diverse functions. For example, the drum module can rotate relative to the frame module to perform a flipping operation, improving cooking quality. However, because the wired electrical connection between the two components needs to be maintained while the drum module and frame module are in relative motion, the electrical connection wires leading from the drum module are susceptible to being cut. This is because the drum module needs to rotate during cooking, but the electrical connection wires leading to the control board of the frame module are fixed. Therefore, the electrical connection wires will continuously rub against the outlet during device operation, and over time, there is a risk of the connection wires being cut or even broken. Utility Model Content

[0003] In view of this, this application provides a wire protection structure and cooking device that can reduce or avoid the possibility of the electrical connection wire being cut or even broken due to continuous friction at the port of the rotating shaft during the rotation of the rotating module relative to the fixed module. This is beneficial to extending the service life of the electrical connection wire and improving the reliability of the entire cooking device.

[0004] An embodiment of the first aspect of this application provides a wire protection structure. The wire protection structure is disposed on a rotating shaft between a fixed module and a rotating module. The rotating shaft passes through the fixed module and is connected to the rotating module. The rotating shaft is configured to be rotatable relative to the fixed module so as to drive the rotating module to flip relative to the fixed module. The rotating shaft is configured as a hollow structure along the axial direction through which a power supply connection wire passes. The power connection wire passes through the fixed module and the rotating module. The wire protection structure includes a wire protection member disposed at at least one end of the rotating shaft. At least a portion of the wire protection member is configured to be rotatable relative to the inner wall of the rotating shaft and stationary relative to the power connection wire.

[0005] For example, the rotating shaft includes a first end that passes through the fixed module, and the wire protection component includes a pass coil located at the first end, wherein the frictional force between the electrical connection wire and the pass coil is greater than the frictional force between the pass coil and the inner wall of the rotating shaft.

[0006] For example, a wire limiting part is provided on the fixed module, and the electrical connection wire is connected to the wire limiting part in a compression coil configuration.

[0007] For example, the coil includes a coil body located inside a hollow structure and having a gap between it and the inner wall of the rotating shaft, and an electrical connection wire configured to pass through the coil body.

[0008] For example, the coil also includes a retaining ring located at one end of the coil body. The retaining ring is located outside the hollow structure, and the outer diameter of the retaining ring is larger than the outer diameter of the first end. The connection between the electrical connection wire and the wire limiting part is also configured to provide a force to the retaining ring close to the first end.

[0009] For example, the outer edge of the retaining ring is provided with a flange structure on the side facing the rotating module.

[0010] For example, the guide coil is made of nylon material.

[0011] For example, the rotating shaft includes a second end located within the rotating module, and the wire protection component includes a rotating component located at the second end. The rotating component includes an outer ring and an inner ring that can rotate relative to each other. The outer ring is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the rotating shaft, and the outer ring and the rotating shaft are relatively stationary. The electrical connection wire is configured to pass through the inner ring, and the frictional force between the electrical connection wire and the inner ring is greater than the frictional force between the inner ring and the outer ring.

[0012] For example, the fixed module includes a power mechanism, a rotating shaft passes through the power mechanism and is poweredly connected to the power mechanism, and the power mechanism is configured to drive the rotating shaft to rotate.

[0013] For example, the power mechanism includes a drive unit and a power box. The power box includes a housing and a transmission mechanism disposed within the housing. The drive unit passes through the housing and is poweredly connected to the input end of the transmission mechanism. The output end of the transmission mechanism is poweredly connected to a rotating shaft, which passes through the housing.

[0014] An embodiment of the second aspect of this application provides a cooking device, including: a fixed module, a rotating module, and a wire protection structure of any one of the foregoing.

[0015] The wire protection structure and cooking device provided in this application embodiment include a wire protection structure disposed on a rotating shaft between a fixed module and a rotating module. The rotating shaft is configured with a hollow structure, allowing electrical connection wires to pass through the hollow structure and through the rotating shaft, thus enabling electrical connection between the electronic components of the fixed module and the rotating module. The wire protection structure includes a wire protection component disposed at at least one end of the rotating shaft. At least a portion of the wire protection component is configured to be rotatable relative to the inner wall of the rotating shaft and stationary relative to the electrical connection wire. This reduces or avoids the possibility of the electrical connection wire being cut or even broken due to continuous friction at the port of the rotating shaft during the rotation of the rotating module relative to the fixed module. This allows the wire protection component to effectively protect the electrical connection wire located at the port of the rotating shaft, extending the service life of the electrical connection wire and thereby improving the reliability of the entire cooking device.

Detailed Implementation

[0019] The accompanying drawings and specific embodiments provide a further detailed description of this application. It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described herein can be combined with each other.

[0020] Many specific details are set forth in the following description in order to provide a full understanding of this application. However, this application may also be implemented in other ways different from those described herein. Therefore, the scope of protection of this application is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.

[0021] The following reference Figures 1 to 4This application describes a wire protection structure 100 and a cooking device according to some embodiments. The wire protection structure 100 is applied to a cooking device, which may be a stir-fry machine or other kitchen equipment. Specifically, the cooking device may be a drum structure, such as a rotating pot assembly.

[0022] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, an embodiment of the first aspect of this application provides a wire protection structure 100. The wire protection structure 100 has a rotating shaft 110 disposed between a fixed module 200 and a rotating module 300. The rotating shaft 110 passes through the fixed module 200 and is connected to the rotating module 300. The rotating shaft 110 is configured to be rotatable relative to the fixed module 200 so as to drive the rotating module 300 to rotate relative to the fixed module 200. The rotating shaft 110 is configured axially as a hollow structure through which a power supply connection line 400 passes. The power supply connection line 400 passes through the fixed module 200 and the rotating module 300. The wire protection structure 100 includes a wire protection member 120. The wire protection member 120 is disposed at at least one end of the rotating shaft 110. At least a portion of the wire protection member 120 is configured to be rotatable relative to the inner wall of the rotating shaft 110 and stationary relative to the power supply connection line 400.

[0023] Among them, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the cooking equipment may include a fixed module 200 and a rotating module 300. Taking a drum structure as an example, the fixed module 200 can be the frame module of the cooking equipment, and the rotating module 300 can be the drum module of the cooking equipment. A rotating shaft 110 passes through the frame module and is connected to the drum module. The rotating shaft 110 is configured to rotate relative to the frame module to drive the drum module to rotate relative to the frame module, so that the drum module can rotate relative to the frame module to a suitable position to meet the needs of the cooking station, food serving station, pot washing station, and food feeding station of the cooking equipment. It is understood that the fixed module 200 and the rotating module 300 can also be other modules. For example, the fixed module 200 can be a frame module, and the rotating module 300 can be a food dispensing module. In this case, at the food dispensing station, the food dispensing module flips relative to the frame module to a suitable position to dispense the food into the pot of the drum module. Alternatively, the fixed module 200 can be a drum module, and the rotating module 300 can be a food dispensing module. In this case, at the food dispensing station, the food dispensing module flips relative to the drum module to a suitable position to dispense the food into the pot of the drum module. It is understood that the fixed module 200 and the rotating module 300 can also be other modules, as long as the rotating module 300 can rotate relative to the fixed module 200, they are all within the scope of protection of this application, and will not be listed here.

[0024] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the wire protection structure 100 provided in this embodiment includes a rotating shaft 110 located between the fixed module 200 and the rotating module 300. The rotating shaft 110 is a hollow structure, allowing the electrical connection wire 400 to pass through the hollow structure and the rotating shaft 110, thus enabling electrical connection between the electronic components of the fixed module 200 and the rotating module 300 without affecting their relative movement. This allows for wired electrical connection between the electronic components of the two modules even when they are in relative motion. Specifically, the electronic components on the fixed module 200 may include a control board or other electronic devices, while the electronic components on the rotating module 300 may include a temperature detection device, a heating coil, or other electronic devices.

[0025] The wire protection structure 100 includes a wire protection component 120, which is disposed at at least one end of the rotating shaft 110. Since the rotating shaft 110 is configured as a hollow structure through which the power supply connection wire 400 passes along the axial direction, the end of the rotating shaft 110 has a port through which the power supply connection wire 400 passes, that is, the wire protection component 120 is located at at least one port of the rotating shaft 110. At least a portion of the wire protector 120 is configured to be rotatable relative to the inner wall of the rotating shaft 110 and stationary relative to the electrical connection wire 400. Thus, during the rotation of the rotating module 300 relative to the fixed module 200, the electrical connection wire 400 and the wire protector 120 are relatively stationary, while the wire protector 120 is rotatable relative to the inner wall of the rotating shaft 110. This reduces or avoids the possibility of the electrical connection wire 400 being cut or even broken due to continuous friction at the port of the rotating shaft 110 during the rotation of the rotating module 300. This allows the wire protector 120 to provide good protection for the electrical connection wire 400 located at the port, extending the service life of the electrical connection wire 400 and thereby improving the reliability of the entire cooking equipment.

[0026] Furthermore, in embodiments of this application, the wire protection element 120 can be disposed at one end of the rotating shaft 110, that is, a wire protection element 120 can be disposed at one port; or, the wire protection element 120 can be disposed at both ends of the rotating shaft 110, that is, a wire protection element 120 can be disposed at both ports. It is understood that the number of wire protection elements 120 can be reasonably set according to the actual situation.

[0027] At least a portion of the wire protection component 120 is configured to be rotatable relative to the inner wall of the rotating shaft 110 and stationary relative to the electrical connection wire 400. That is, the entire wire protection component 120 may be configured to be rotatable relative to the inner wall of the rotating shaft 110 and stationary relative to the electrical connection wire 400, or a portion of the structure of the wire protection component 120 may be configured to be rotatable relative to the inner wall of the rotating shaft 110 and stationary relative to the electrical connection wire 400. It can be understood that the specific structure of the wire protection component 120, which is rotatable relative to the inner wall of the rotating shaft 110 and stationary relative to the electrical connection wire 400, can be reasonably set according to the specific structure of the wire protection component 120.

[0028] like Figure 3 As shown, in some possible embodiments provided in this application, the rotating shaft 110 includes a first end 111 that passes through the fixed module 200, the wire protection component 120 includes a coil 130 located at the first end 111, and the friction between the electrical connection wire 400 and the coil 130 is greater than the friction between the coil 130 and the inner wall of the rotating shaft 110.

[0029] This embodiment provides an example where the wire protection component 120 is a pass-through coil 130. The pass-through coil 130 is located at the first end 111 of the rotating shaft 110. The first end 111 of the rotating shaft 110 passes through the fixed module 200, meaning the electrical connection wire 400 passes through the hollow structure of the rotating shaft 110 and then through the pass-through coil 130 located at the first end 111 to electrically connect with the electronic components on the fixed module 200.

[0030] The friction between the electrical connection wire 400 and the coil 130 is greater than the friction between the coil 130 and the inner wall of the rotating shaft 110. This ensures that the coil 130 and the electrical connection wire 400 are relatively stationary, while the coil 130 and the inner wall of the rotating shaft 110 are relatively moving. Thus, during the rotation of the rotating module 300 relative to the fixed module 200, the electrical connection wire 400 at the port of the first end 111 will not be cut. This provides good protection for the electrical connection wire 400 at the port of the first end 111, extending the service life of the electrical connection wire 400.

[0031] like Figure 1As shown, in some possible embodiments provided in this application, a wire limiting part 210 is provided on the fixed module 200. The wire limiting part 210 has a limiting function on the electrical connection wire 400. The electrical connection wire 400 is connected to the wire limiting part 210, which can compress the coil 130. This ensures that the coil 130 and the port of the rotating shaft 110 can fit tightly together without detaching, improving the reliability of the connection between the coil 130 and the first end 111 of the rotating shaft 110. It is understood that the reliable connection between the coil 130 and the first end 111 of the rotating shaft 110 prevents the coil 130 from detaching from the rotating shaft 110 and allows it to rotate relative to the rotating shaft 110, thus providing good protection for the electrical connection wire 400 at the port of the first end 111 of the rotating shaft 110.

[0032] The wire limiting part 210 can be a groove structure, such as a wire fixing groove; or it can be a protrusion structure, such as a wire fixing post; or it can be a hook structure. Specifically, the wire limiting part 210 is disposed on the fixing module 200, such as when the fixing module 200 includes a support frame, and the wire limiting part 210 is disposed on the support frame.

[0033] like Figure 4 As shown, in some possible embodiments provided in this application, the coil 130 includes a coil body 131, which is located inside the hollow structure and has a gap between it and the inner wall of the rotating shaft 110. The electrical connection wire 400 is configured to pass through the coil body 131.

[0034] In this embodiment, by having the ring body 131 located inside the hollow structure and having a gap between it and the inner wall of the rotating shaft 110, the friction between the ring body 131 and the inner wall of the rotating shaft 110 can be significantly reduced. Thus, the electrical connection wire 400 passes through the ring body 131, ensuring that the friction between the electrical connection wire 400 and the ring body 131 is greater than the friction between the ring body 131 and the inner wall of the rotating shaft 110. This allows the ring body 131 to rotate relative to the inner wall of the rotating shaft 110 while remaining stationary relative to the electrical connection wire 400. Therefore, during the rotation of the rotating module 300 relative to the fixed module 200, the possibility of the electrical connection wire 400 at the first end 111 being cut or broken is reduced. This allows the ring body 131 to effectively protect the electrical connection wire 400 at the first end 111, extending the service life of the electrical connection wire 400 and improving the overall reliability of the cooking equipment.

[0035] like Figure 4As shown, in some possible embodiments provided in this application, the coil 130 further includes a retaining ring 132 located at one end of the coil body 131. The retaining ring 132 is located outside the hollow structure, and the outer diameter of the retaining ring 132 is larger than the outer diameter of the first end 111. The connection between the electrical connection wire 400 and the wire limiting part 210 is also configured to provide a force to the retaining ring 132 close to the first end 111.

[0036] In this embodiment, since the outer diameter of the retaining ring 132 is larger than the outer diameter of the first end 111 of the rotating shaft 110, the retaining ring 132 will not extend into the interior of the hollow structure of the rotating shaft 110. It is connected to the wire limiting part 210 through the electrical connection wire 400 to provide a force close to the first end 111 to the retaining ring 132, so that the retaining ring 132 can be firmly locked on the outside of the first end 111 of the rotating shaft 110. Thus, the entire coil 130 can be locked at the port of the first end 111 of the rotating shaft 110, ensuring that the coil 130 will not fall off from the port of the first end 111 of the rotating shaft 110. This reduces or avoids the possibility that the electrical connection wire 400 will be damaged by direct friction with the rotating shaft 110 at the port of the first end 111 due to the separation of the coil 130 from the rotating shaft 110. This allows the coil 130 to provide good and reliable protection for the electrical connection wire 400 at the port of the first end 111, thereby extending the service life of the electrical connection wire 400. Understandably, the electrical connection 400 is connected to the wire limiting part 210 to provide a force to the retaining ring 132 near the first end 111, so that the retaining ring 132 can be firmly locked on the outside of the first end 111 of the rotating shaft 110. The retaining ring 132 locked on the first end 111 of the rotating shaft 110 ensures that the coil 130 does not detach from the rotating shaft 110 and can rotate relative to the rotating shaft 110.

[0037] Furthermore, the outer diameter of the retaining ring 132 can be larger than the outer diameter of the first end 111 to ensure that the retaining ring 132 does not extend into the interior of the hollow structure through the port of the first end 111, and to make the area of ​​the end face of the retaining ring 132 relative to the end face of the first end 111 larger, thus playing a good limiting role and further reducing the possibility of the retaining ring 132 extending into the interior of the hollow structure due to deformation. It is understood that in some embodiments, if the strength of the retaining ring 132 is large, the outer diameter of the retaining ring 132 can be larger than the diameter of the port of the first end 111 to ensure that the retaining ring 132 does not extend into the interior of the hollow structure through the port of the first end 111. Specifically, the diameter of the retaining ring 132 can be reasonably set according to the material of the retaining ring 132, so that the outer diameter of the retaining ring 132 can be larger than the diameter of the port of the first end 111, or the outer diameter of the retaining ring 132 can be larger than the outer diameter of the first end 111 of the rotating shaft 110, to ensure that the retaining ring 132 does not extend into the interior of the hollow structure through the port of the first end 111.

[0038] like Figure 4As shown, in some possible embodiments provided in this application, a flange structure 133 is provided on the outer edge of the retaining ring 132 facing the rotating module 300. The flange structure 133, while ensuring a large relative area between the retaining ring 132 and the end face of the first end 111 and providing good limiting effect, minimizes the contact area between the retaining ring 132 and the end face of the first end 111, thereby reducing the friction between the entire coil 130 and the rotating shaft 110. This ensures that the friction between the electrical connection wire 400 and the coil 130 is greater than the friction between the coil 130 and the inner wall of the rotating shaft 110, making the coil 130 and the electrical connection wire 400 relatively stationary, while the coil 130 and the inner wall of the rotating shaft 110 are relatively moving. This allows the coil 130 to effectively protect the electrical connection wire 400 at the port of the first end 111 from cuts, extending the service life of the electrical connection wire 400 and improving the reliability of the cooking equipment.

[0039] Meanwhile, the flange structure 133 can reduce or avoid the possibility of the edge of the retaining ring 132 scratching the user, which is conducive to improving the personal safety of the assembly personnel during the movement and disassembly of the coil 130.

[0040] In some possible embodiments provided in this application, the guide coil 130 is made of nylon material. The nylon guide coil 130 has high wear resistance, making it suitable for high-speed rotation scenarios and effectively reducing frictional loss between the nylon guide coil 130 and the inner wall of the rotating shaft 110. Simultaneously, the nylon guide coil 130 has a high heat resistance rating and thermal shock resistance, making it suitable for use in high-temperature environments.

[0041] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, in some possible embodiments provided in this application, the rotating shaft 110 includes a second end 112 located within the rotating module 300, and the wire protection component 120 includes a rotating component 140 located at the second end 112. The rotating component 140 includes an outer ring and an inner ring that can rotate relative to each other. The outer ring is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the rotating shaft 110, and the outer ring and the rotating shaft 110 are relatively stationary. The electrical connection wire 400 is configured to pass through the inner ring, and the frictional force between the electrical connection wire 400 and the inner ring is greater than the frictional force between the inner ring and the outer ring.

[0042] This embodiment provides an example where the wire protection component 120 is a rotating component 140. The rotating component 140 is located at the second end 112 of the rotating shaft 110, which is located within the rotating module 300. Specifically, the electrical connection wire 400 passes through the hollow structure of the rotating shaft 110 and then through the rotating component 140 located at the second end 112, connecting electrically to the electronic components on the rotating module 300.

[0043] The rotating component 140 includes an outer ring and an inner ring that can rotate relative to each other. The outer ring of the rotating component 140 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the rotating shaft 110, and the outer ring and the rotating shaft 110 are relatively stationary. The electrical connection wire 400 is configured to pass through the inner ring, and the frictional force between the electrical connection wire 400 and the inner ring is greater than the frictional force between the inner ring and the outer ring. This ensures that the inner ring of the rotating component 140 and the electrical connection wire 400 are relatively stationary, while the inner ring and the outer ring of the rotating component 140 are relatively movable. Since the outer ring is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the rotating shaft 110, the inner ring and the inner wall of the rotating shaft 110 are relatively movable. Thus, during the rotation of the rotating module 300 relative to the fixed module 200, the electrical connection wire 400 at the second end 112 port will not be at risk of being cut, providing good protection for the electrical connection wire 400 at the second end 112 port and extending the service life of the electrical connection wire 400.

[0044] Specifically, the rotating component 140 can be a bearing, or it can be other structures. The bearing is a standard component, which has lower cost, higher production efficiency, and is suitable for widespread application.

[0045] Understandably, in some examples, the coil 130 may also be located at the second end 112 of the shaft 110, and the rotating element 140 may also be located at the first end 111 of the shaft 110. The wire protection element 120 at the first end 111 and the second end 112 may have the same structure or different structures.

[0046] like Figure 1 As shown, in some possible embodiments provided in this application, the fixed module 200 includes a power mechanism 220, a rotating shaft 110 passes through the power mechanism 220 and is poweredly connected to the power mechanism 220, and the power mechanism 220 is configured to drive the rotating shaft 110 to rotate.

[0047] In this embodiment, since the rotating shaft 110 is poweredly connected to the power mechanism 220, the power mechanism 220 operates, driving the rotating shaft 110 to rotate. This rotation of the rotating module 300 relative to the fixed module 200 allows the rotating module 300 to rotate relative to the fixed module 200, enabling it to flip. Because the rotating shaft 110 passes through the power mechanism 220, its first end 111 is exposed outside the power mechanism 220, facilitating the electrical connection wire 400 to pass through the first end 111 of the rotating shaft and connect to the electronic components on the fixed module 200. Furthermore, this arrangement allows the electrical connection wire 400 to pass through the center of the power mechanism 220 via the hollow structure of the rotating shaft 110, thereby significantly improving assembly efficiency, reducing wire costs, and improving the neatness of the wiring harness.

[0048] Specifically, in related technologies, the cable protection structure uses a drag chain to prevent large-angle bending of the cable, thus reducing the risk of the cable being cut. However, this design requires a significantly longer electrical connection cable with sufficient slack, and the assembly is complex and costly. The cable protection structure 100 provided in this application, however, improves the structure of the rotating shaft 110 by making it hollow along the axial direction. This allows the electrical connection cable 400 to pass through the center of the power mechanism 220 via the hollow structure of the rotating shaft 110, thereby greatly improving assembly efficiency, reducing cable costs, and improving the neatness of the wiring harness. Meanwhile, by providing a wire protection element 120 at at least one end of the rotating shaft 110, at least a portion of the wire protection element 120 is rotatable relative to the inner wall of the rotating shaft 110 and stationary relative to the electrical connection wire 400. This reduces or avoids the risk of the electrical connection wire 400 being cut at the port at the end of the rotating shaft 110 during the flipping motion of the rotating module 300, extends the service life of the electrical connection wire 400, and improves the reliability of the entire cooking device.

[0049] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, in some possible embodiments provided in this application, the power mechanism 220 includes a drive unit 221 and a power box 222. The power box 222 includes a housing 223 and a transmission mechanism 224 disposed in the housing 223. The drive unit 221 passes through the housing 223 and is poweredly connected to the input end of the transmission mechanism 224. The output end of the transmission mechanism 224 is poweredly connected to the rotating shaft 110, and the rotating shaft 110 passes through the housing 223.

[0050] As a result, the drive unit 221 rotates, which in turn drives the rotating shaft 110 to rotate via the transmission mechanism 224, and the rotating shaft 110 drives the rotating module 300 to flip relative to the fixed module 200.

[0051] The drive unit 221 can be a motor, and the transmission mechanism 224 can be a gear drive, chain drive, belt drive, or other transmission mechanism. The output shaft of the motor can be connected to the input end of the transmission mechanism 224, and the output end of the transmission mechanism 224 is poweredly connected to the rotating shaft 110. Thus, the power of the drive unit 221 can be transmitted to the rotating shaft 110 through the transmission mechanism 224.

[0052] The housing 223 effectively protects the transmission mechanism 224, extending its service life. The rotating shaft 110 passes through the housing 223, allowing the electrical connection cable 400 to pass through the center of the housing 223 of the drive unit 221 via the hollow structure of the shaft 110. This facilitates electrical connection between the electrical connection cable 400 and the electronic components on the fixed module 200, significantly improving assembly efficiency, reducing wiring costs, and enhancing the neatness of the wiring harness.

[0053] Specifically, a hollow hole is provided on the housing 223. The rotating shaft 110 needs to be inserted into the hollow hole of the housing 223 and is poweredly connected to the output end of the transmission mechanism 224 located inside the housing 223. The first end 111 of the rotating shaft 110 is exposed outside the housing 223, and a coil 130 is installed at the port of the first end 111. The second end 112 of the rotating shaft 110 is exposed outside the housing 223 and extends into the interior of the rotating module 300. A rotating component 140 is installed at the port of the second end 112. In this way, the electrical connection wire 400 passes through the hollow structure of the rotating shaft 110, passes through the coil 130 at the first end 111 and is electrically connected to the electronic components on the fixed module 200, and passes through the rotating component 140 at the second end 112 and is electrically connected to the electronic components on the rotating module 300. Therefore, by using the coil 130 and the rotating part 140 to protect the electrical connection wire 400 at both ends from cut, it is beneficial to extend the service life of the electrical connection wire 400 and improve the reliability of the cooking equipment.

[0054] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown in the second aspect of this application, an embodiment of a cooking device is provided, including: a fixed module 200, a rotating module 300, and a wire protection structure 100 of any of the foregoing embodiments. Since the cooking device includes the wire protection structure 100 of any of the foregoing embodiments, it has all the technical effects of the aforementioned wire protection structure 100, which will not be described in detail here.

[0055] Furthermore, the fixed module 200 of the cooking equipment can be a frame module, and the rotating module 300 can be a drum module. The frame module and the drum module are connected by a rotating shaft 110, so that the drum module can rotate relative to the frame module and rotate to a suitable position to meet the needs of the cooking station, food serving station, pot washing station, food feeding station, etc. of the cooking equipment.
