The cavity wall of the steam oven cavity 3 is provided with a second connecting hole. The second connecting hole is connected to the first connecting hole through the connecting pipe 4. The connecting pipe 4 is used to flow the air in the refrigeration cavity 2 to the steam oven cavity 3.

[0021] In a specific embodiment of this application, the refrigeration device 1 may be a compressor.

[0022] In a specific embodiment of this application, the refrigeration chamber 2 is used for refrigerating and / or freezing food; the steaming and baking chamber 3 is used for steaming, baking and / or heating food.

[0023] In a specific embodiment of this application, a heating device is provided inside the steam oven cavity 3, which is used to heat the air inside the steam oven cavity 3.

[0024] In this embodiment of the application, an intelligent integrated appliance is provided, which includes a cooling cavity 2 and a steaming and baking cavity 3. The cooling cavity 2 can preserve food, and the steaming and baking cavity 3 can steam and bake food. At the same time, the cold air in the cooling cavity 2 can be used to cool the steaming and baking cavity 3, thereby achieving preservation or rapid cooling of the steaming and baking cavity 3. This realizes the integration of multiple functions of kitchen appliances, which simultaneously meet the functions of a refrigerator and a steam oven, thereby reducing the space occupied by the kitchen appliances and improving the cost performance of the kitchen appliances.

[0025] In this embodiment of the application, a first flow guiding drive device 5 is provided in the cooling cavity 2, and the first flow guiding drive device 5 is located near the first connection hole.

[0026] In a specific embodiment of this application, the first flow guiding drive device 5 can be a fan or a blower.

[0027] In a specific embodiment of this application, the first flow guiding drive device 5 is used to drive the air in the cooling cavity 2 to flow into the connecting pipe 4.

[0028] In this embodiment of the application, by setting a first flow guiding drive device 5 in the cooling cavity 2, the air flow direction in the cooling cavity 2 is guided, thereby increasing the rate at which air flows into the steam oven 3 from the cooling cavity 2, thereby increasing the cold air delivery rate in the steam oven 3, and thus increasing the temperature drop rate in the steam oven 3.

[0029] In this embodiment of the application, a second flow guiding drive device 6 is provided in the steam oven cavity 3, and the second flow guiding drive device 6 is located near the second connection hole.

[0030] In a specific embodiment of this application, the second flow guiding drive device 6 can be a fan or a negative pressure fan.

[0031] In a specific embodiment of this application, the second flow guiding drive device 6 is used to drive the air in the connecting pipe 4 to flow into the steam oven cavity 3.

[0032] In this embodiment of the application, by setting a second flow guiding drive device 6 in the steam oven cavity 3, the air flow direction in the connecting pipe 4 is guided, thereby increasing the rate at which air in the cooling cavity 2 flows into the steam oven cavity 3, thereby increasing the cold air delivery rate in the steam oven cavity 3, and thus increasing the temperature drop rate in the steam oven cavity 3.

[0033] In this embodiment of the application, a one-way flow switch 7 is provided on the connecting pipe 4. When the one-way flow switch 7 is in the open state, the air in the refrigeration chamber 2 flows into the steam oven 3.

[0034] In a specific embodiment of this application, the one-way flow switch 7 can be a check valve or a throttle valve.

[0035] In this embodiment of the application, by setting a one-way flow switch 7 on the connecting pipe 4, the air in the steam oven 3 is prevented from flowing back into the cooling chamber 2, thus ensuring the freshness of the food in the cooling chamber 2 and improving the reliability of the intelligent integrated appliance.

[0036] In this embodiment, the intelligent integrated electrical appliance also includes a control device, and the one-way flow switch 7 is a solenoid valve; the control device is electrically connected to the solenoid valve.

[0037] In a specific embodiment of this application, the control device is used to control the solenoid valve to start when the steaming and baking is completed, so that the air in the cooling cavity 2 flows into the steaming and baking cavity 3, thereby rapidly cooling the temperature in the steaming and baking cavity 3 after the steaming and baking is completed.

[0038] In a specific embodiment of this application, the control device is also used to respond to the scheduled steaming and baking command by controlling the solenoid valve to start so that the air in the cooling chamber 2 flows into the steaming and baking chamber 3; thereby realizing the scheduled steaming and baking during the scheduled time period, and if the scheduled time is not reached, the cold air delivered by the cooling chamber 2 can keep the food fresh.

[0039] In a specific embodiment of this application, the control device is also electrically connected to the first flow guiding drive device 5 and the second flow guiding drive device 6 respectively. The control device is used to start the solenoid valve while controlling the first flow guiding drive device 5 and the second flow guiding drive device 6 to start.

[0040] In this embodiment, by incorporating a control device into the intelligent integrated appliance and electrically connecting the control device to a solenoid valve, automation of the intelligent integrated appliance is achieved, thereby improving its intelligence. In this embodiment of the application, the cooling chamber 2 includes a first cooling chamber 21 and a second cooling chamber 22. During the operation of the cooling device 1, the temperature inside the first cooling chamber 21 is greater than the temperature inside the second cooling chamber 22.

[0041] In a specific embodiment of this application, the first refrigeration chamber 21 may be a refrigeration chamber, and the second refrigeration chamber 22 may be a freezing chamber.

[0042] In this embodiment of the application, by setting a first cooling chamber 21 and a second cooling chamber 22, the preservation requirements at different temperatures are met, thereby improving the functionality of the integrated electrical appliance.

[0043] In a specific embodiment of this application, a first flow guiding drive device 5 is provided in the first cooling cavity 21 and the second cooling cavity 22 respectively.

[0044] In this embodiment, the one-way flow switch 7 is a three-way valve, with its two input terminals corresponding to the first refrigeration chamber 21 and the second refrigeration chamber 22, respectively; and its output terminal corresponding to the steam oven chamber 3.

[0045] In this embodiment, by setting the one-way flow switch 7 as a three-way valve, the input cavity of cold air can be selectively selected. For example, the air temperature in the first cooling cavity 21 is higher than the air temperature in the second cooling cavity 22. The cooling rate of the steam oven cavity 3 using the air in the first cooling cavity 21 is less than the cooling rate of the steam oven cavity 3 using the air in the second cooling cavity 22. At the same time, the cooling rate of the steam oven cavity 3 using both the air in the first cooling cavity 21 and the air in the second cooling cavity 22 is greater than the cooling rate of the steam oven cavity 3 using only the air in the second cooling cavity 22. This improves the diversity of cooling rates in the steam oven cavity 3, thereby adapting to different application scenarios and improving the practicality of the smart integrated appliance.

[0046] In this embodiment, the cooling cavity 2 and the steaming and baking cavity 3 are arranged side by side.

[0047] In a specific embodiment of this application, the steaming and baking cavity 3 is positioned above the cooling cavity 2; specifically, the steaming and baking cavity 3, the first cooling cavity 21, and the second cooling cavity 22 are arranged sequentially from top to bottom.

[0048] In a specific embodiment of this application, the refrigeration device 1 is disposed below the second refrigeration chamber 22.

[0049] In this embodiment of the application, by arranging the cooling cavity 2 and the steaming and baking cavity 3 side by side, the floor space of the smart integrated appliance is reduced, thereby improving the practicality of the smart integrated appliance.

[0050] In another specific embodiment of this application, the cooling cavity 2 and the steaming and baking cavity 3 are arranged side by side.

[0051] In this embodiment, a condenser tube 8 is provided inside the steam oven cavity 3, and the air in the cooling cavity 2 flows into the condenser tube 8 after passing through the second connecting hole.

[0052] In this embodiment of the application, by setting a condenser pipe 8 in the steam oven cavity 3, the temperature carried by the cold air is indirectly transferred through the condenser pipe 8, thereby avoiding the cold air from flowing directly into the steam oven cavity 3 and affecting the taste of the food, and thus improving the reliability of the intelligent integrated appliance.

[0053] In this embodiment, a temperature detection device 9 is provided between the condenser tube 8 and the second flow guiding drive device 6.

[0054] In a specific embodiment of this application, the temperature detection device 9 is used to detect the temperature of the air transmitted to the steam oven cavity 3; the temperature detection device 9 is electrically connected to the control device.

[0055] In a specific embodiment of this application, the control device is used to adjust the opening and closing state of the solenoid valve based on the detection result of the temperature detection device 9.

[0056] In this embodiment of the application, by setting a temperature detection device 9 on the connecting pipe 4, the temperature input to the steam oven is ensured to be controllable. Specifically, the control device can control the opening duration of the solenoid valve based on the detection result of the temperature detection device 9, thereby improving the controllability of the intelligent integrated appliance.

[0057] In a specific embodiment of this application, the control device is further configured to adjust the operating power of the first flow guiding drive device 5 and / or the second flow guiding drive device 6 based on the detection result of the temperature detection device 9.

[0058] In a specific embodiment of this application, when the temperature corresponding to the detection result of the temperature detection device 9 is greater than the first preset temperature, the first flow guiding drive device 5 and / or the second flow guiding drive device 6 are controlled to operate at 100% rated power; specifically, the first preset temperature is any temperature between -25 and -35°; preferably, the first preset temperature is -30°.

[0059] In a specific embodiment of this application, when the temperature corresponding to the detection result of the temperature detection device 9 is greater than the second preset temperature, the first flow guiding drive device 5 is controlled to operate at 50% of its rated power, and the second flow guiding drive device 6 is controlled to operate at 100% of its rated power; the second preset temperature is greater than the first preset temperature, specifically, the second preset temperature is any temperature between -15 and -25°; preferably, the second preset temperature is 20°.

[0060] In a specific embodiment of this application, when the temperature corresponding to the detection result of the temperature detection device 9 is greater than the third preset temperature, the first flow guiding drive device 5 in the first cooling chamber 21 is controlled to be turned off, and the second flow guiding drive device 6 is controlled to operate at 100% rated power.

[0061] In a specific embodiment of this application, the intelligent integrated appliance can be controlled by a voice module, which is equipped with a controller, a voice receiving module, and a voice parsing module. The voice receiving module receives user commands, and the voice parsing module parses the commands. Based on the parsed commands, the controller controls the intelligent integrated appliance to perform corresponding operations, thereby realizing intelligent control of the intelligent integrated appliance and improving the user experience.

[0062] The working principle of the intelligent integrated electrical appliance provided in this application embodiment is as follows: With the solenoid valve closed, the steaming and baking chamber 3 and the cooling chamber 2 operate independently. The steaming and baking chamber 3 can steam and bake food, while the cooling chamber 2 can refrigerate food. After the steaming and baking in the steaming and baking chamber 3 is finished, the solenoid valve can be opened, and the cold air in the cooling chamber 2 is delivered to the steaming and baking chamber 3 through the connecting pipe 4, thereby cooling the temperature inside the steaming and baking chamber 3. Specifically, the temperature inside the steaming and baking chamber 3 is reduced to near the ambient temperature. Preferably, the temperature inside the steaming and baking chamber 3 after cooling is less than or equal to the ambient temperature. Preferably, the preset temperature is 20°C or 10°C.

[0063] In addition, the smart integrated appliance also has a timed steaming and baking function. Specifically, it automatically steams and bakes the food in the steaming and baking chamber within the time set. However, it is necessary to keep the food fresh before the time set. Therefore, the solenoid valve can be activated, and the cold air in the cooling chamber 2 is delivered to the steaming and baking chamber 3 through the connecting pipe 4 to keep the food fresh.

[0064] The intelligent integrated electrical appliance provided in this application has the following beneficial effects: By setting up a smart integrated appliance, which includes a cooling cavity 2 and a steam oven cavity 3, the cooling cavity 2 can keep food fresh, and the steam oven cavity 3 can steam and bake food. At the same time, the cold air in the cooling cavity 2 can be used to cool the steam oven cavity 3, thereby achieving the goal of keeping food fresh or rapidly cooling it. This realizes the integration of multiple functions of kitchen appliances, which simultaneously meet the functions of a refrigerator and a steam oven, thereby reducing the space occupied by kitchen appliances and improving the cost performance of kitchen appliances.
