Therefore, they should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of this embodiment.

[0019] like Figure 1and Figure 3 As shown, this utility model embodiment provides a seasoning storage device for use in cooking equipment, including a container body 1, the container body 1 including an outlet 11 communicating with its interior, the outlet 11 being used to allow a pipe 30 located inside the container body 1 to extend out of the container body 1; and an anti-drip structure 2, disposed on the container body 1, for at least partially removing the seasoning residue on the outer wall of the pipe 30 when the pipe 30 extends out of the container body 1.

[0020] Understandably, the container body 1 can be placed in the hopper, one end of the pipe 30 is connected to the pump body 20, and the other end of the pipe 30 extends into the container body 1 through the outlet 11 and is immersed in the liquid seasoning. When the container body 1 is pulled out of the hopper to replenish the material, the pipe 30 inside the container body 1 extends out of the container body 1 through the outlet 11; when the container body 1 is pushed into the hopper 10, the pipe 30 can be reset back into the container body 1.

[0021] The condiment storage device provided in this embodiment includes a container body 1 and an anti-drip structure 2. The container body 1 includes an outlet 11 for a pipe 30 to extend into it, and the anti-drip structure 2 is disposed on the container body 1 to at least partially remove condiments remaining on the outer wall of the pipe 30 when the pipe 30 extends out of the container body 1. In other words, by providing the anti-drip structure 2 on the container body 1, this embodiment of the invention enables the anti-drip structure 2 to promptly remove condiments remaining on the outer wall of the pipe 30 during the process of the container body 1 being pulled out of the hopper 10 to allow the pipe 30 to extend out of the container body 1, thereby reducing or even avoiding condiment leakage from the pipe 30, and thus preventing the hopper 10 from becoming dirty.

[0022] The anti-drip structure 2 can take many forms, as long as it can at least partially remove the seasoning from the outer wall of the pipe 30 when the pipe 30 extends out of the container body 1.

[0023] In some embodiments, the anti-drip structure 2 may include a drive member and a cylindrical cleaning member. The cleaning member may be sleeved on the outside of the pipe 30 and located outside the container body 1. The drive member is disposed on the container body 1 and connected to the cleaning member, and is used to drive the cleaning member to move along the pipe 30. During the process of the container body 1 being pulled out of the hopper 10 to allow the pipe 30 to extend out of the container body 1, the drive member can drive the cleaning member to move, so as to promptly remove the seasoning on the pipe 30 extending out of the container body 1. The cleaning member may include a brush or a sponge. If the cleaning member includes a brush, the bristles of the brush extend towards its center; and the drive member may be a telescopic cylinder, etc.

[0024] In some other embodiments, the anti-drip structure 2 may include a receiving component, one end of which is connected to the container body 1, and the other end extends away from the container body 1 in the direction of being pulled out of the hopper 10. During the process of the container body 1 being pulled out of the hopper 10 to allow the pipe 30 to extend beyond the container body 1, the container body 1 moves the receiving component downwards from the pipe 30 extending from the container body 1 to catch any dripping condiments from the pipe 30, preventing the condiments from dripping into the hopper 10. It is understood that the length of the receiving component is greater than or equal to the length of the portion of the pipe 30 extending beyond the container body 1 to improve the reliability of the receiving component in catching leaking condiments.

[0025] For ease of use, in some embodiments, the anti-drip structure 2 may include a main body and a scraping hole or scraping groove disposed on the main body; the pipe 30 is used to extend into the container body 1 through the scraping hole or scraping groove, and the inner wall of the scraping hole or scraping groove abuts against the pipe 30, and the scraping hole or scraping groove is used to scrape off the seasoning residue on the outer wall of the pipe 30 when the pipe 30 extends out of the container body 1.

[0026] Since the main body is set on the container body 1, and the inner wall of the scraping hole or scraping groove abuts against the outer wall of the pipe 30, when the container body 1 moves, the inner wall of the scraping hole or scraping groove can scrape the outer wall of the pipe 30, thereby scraping off the seasoning residue on the outer wall of the pipe 30.

[0027] It is understood that if a scraping groove is provided on the main body, the scraping groove can be located at the top, side and / or bottom of the pipe 30 so as to scrape off the seasoning at the top, side and / or bottom of the pipe 30.

[0028] In some embodiments, the projection of the scraper hole or scraper groove along the direction of gravity is located inside the outlet 11.

[0029] In other words, the scraping hole or scraping groove is located directly above the outlet 11, and the area of ​​the scraping hole or scraping groove projected toward the outlet 11 is smaller than the area of ​​the outlet 11. In this way, the seasoning scraped off by the scraping hole or scraping groove can drip back into the container body 1 through the outlet 11 under the action of gravity, thereby avoiding the waste of seasoning and saving costs.

[0030] The outlet 11 is located on the top surface of the container body 1. To avoid bending of the pipe 30, the scraping hole or scraping groove can be inclined relative to the top surface of the container body 1 to accommodate the pipe 30 extending into the outlet 11.

[0031] In some embodiments, see Figure 1 and Figure 2The main body may include a first mounting component 21 and a second mounting component 22. At least one of the first mounting component 21 and the second mounting component 22 is disposed at the outlet 11. The second mounting component 22 and the first mounting component 21 are movable relative to each other. A first slot 211 is provided on the first mounting component 21. A second slot 221 is provided on the second mounting component 22. The first mounting member 21 and the second mounting member 22 are used to move relative to each other so that the first slot 211 and the second slot 221 come close to each other and form the aforementioned scraping hole or scraping groove; the first mounting member 21 and the second mounting member 22 are also used to move relative to each other so that the first slot 211 and the second slot 221 are separated.

[0032] By setting the scraping hole or scraping groove to be formed by the relative movement of the first mounting member 21 and the second mounting member 22, it is convenient to put the container body 1 back into the hopper 10, or to facilitate the insertion of the pipe 30 into the container body 1.

[0033] Specifically, when the container body 1 is pulled out of the hopper 10, or when the container body 1 is replenished with seasoning and is about to be pushed back into the hopper 10, the first mounting member 21 and the second mounting member 22 can be moved relative to each other to separate the first slot 211 and the second slot 221. Then, the container body 1 is sent into the hopper 10. During this process, since the first slot 211 and the second slot 221 are separated, they will not jam the pipe 30, thus not causing resistance to pushing the container body 1 into the hopper 10, thereby ensuring that the container body 1 enters the hopper 10 smoothly. After the container body 1 is pushed into the hopper 10, the first mounting member 21 and the second mounting member 22 can be moved relative to each other to bring the first slot 211 and the second slot 221 closer together to form the aforementioned scraping hole or scraping groove. The pipe 30 is then clamped in the scraping hole or scraping groove so that when the container body 1 is replenished, the scraping hole or scraping groove can scrape off the seasoning from the outer wall of the pipe 30.

[0034] When installing the pipe 30, the first mounting part 21 and the second mounting part 22 can be moved relative to each other to separate the first slot 211 and the second slot 221. After the pipe 30 is inserted into the container body 1, the first mounting part 21 and the second mounting part 22 can be moved relative to each other to bring the first slot 211 and the second slot 221 closer together to engage the pipe 30, making the installation of the pipe 30 more convenient.

[0035] It should be noted that when the first slot 211 and the second slot 221 approach each other to form the aforementioned scraping hole, the first slot 211 and the second slot 221 can each be a semi-circular slot. When they approach each other, they form a closed hole, which is the scraping hole.

[0036] When the first slot 211 and the second slot 221 approach each other to form the aforementioned scraping groove, the first slot 211 and the second slot 221 can each be a semi-circular groove. When they approach each other, they form an open hole, and the wall of this open hole is the groove wall of the scraping groove. In other words, both the first slot 211 and the second slot 221 can be scraping grooves.

[0037] In some embodiments, see Figure 1 and Figure 3 When the first slot 211 and the second slot 221 come close to each other, the first mounting member 21 and / or the second mounting member 22 can close the outlet 11; when the first slot 211 and the second slot 221 separate, the first mounting member 21 and / or the second mounting member 22 open the outlet 11.

[0038] By setting the first mounting component 21 and the second mounting component 22, not only can the seasoning on the outer wall of the pipe 30 be scraped off, but the outlet 11 can also be closed or opened. When the seasoning storage device is working normally, the outlet 11 can be in a closed state, thereby preventing external dust and other dirt from entering the container body 1 through the outlet 11 and causing contamination of the seasoning, thereby improving food safety.

[0039] It is understandable that, in order to facilitate the delivery of various seasonings, or to deliver the same seasoning through multiple pipes 30, the number of pipes 30 can be multiple. Correspondingly, the number of first slots 211 and second slots 221 can be multiple. Each first slot 211 and its corresponding second slot 221 cooperate with each other to form the aforementioned scraping hole or scraping groove.

[0040] In some embodiments, see Figure 1 and Figure 2 The first mounting component 21 is disposed at the outlet 11; wherein the second mounting component 22 is rotatably connected to the first mounting component 21; or, the second mounting component 22 is rotatably connected to the container body 1.

[0041] The first mounting member 21 can be an annular shape that matches the contour of the outlet 11. For example, if the outlet 11 is a quadrilateral opening, then the first mounting member 21 is a quadrilateral annular shape. The first mounting member 21 is connected to the container body 1 and is arranged around the outlet 11. The second mounting member 22 can be rotatably connected to the first mounting member 21 or connected to the container body 1. The second mounting member 22 is used to rotate relative to the first mounting member 21 so that the first slot 211 and the second slot 221 can move closer to each other or separate, making the operation more convenient.

[0042] In some embodiments, see Figure 1 and Figure 2The first mounting component 21 may be provided with a snap-fit ​​component 212; the second mounting component 22 is provided with a snap-fit ​​mating component 222; when the first slot 211 and the second slot 221 are close together, the snap-fit ​​component 212 and the snap-fit ​​mating component 222 snap-fit ​​together; when the first slot 211 and the second slot 221 are separated, the snap-fit ​​component 212 and the snap-fit ​​mating component 222 are separated.

[0043] By setting the snap-fit ​​part 212 and the snap-fit ​​mating part 222, on the one hand, it can be ensured that the first mounting part 21 and the second mounting part 22 are locked together when the first slot 211 and the second slot 221 come close to each other, thereby restricting the pipe 30 between the first slot 211 and the second slot 221. On the other hand, it can prevent the first mounting part 21 and the second mounting part 22 from abnormally separating, which would prevent the first slot 211 and the second slot 221 from scraping material, thereby ensuring the normal scraping of the scraping hole or scraping groove.

[0044] The snap-fit ​​part 212 and the snap-fit ​​mating part 222 can have various structural forms, as long as they can achieve snap-fit ​​mating between them. For example, the snap-fit ​​part 212 and the snap-fit ​​mating part 222 can be a matching buckle structure, or the snap-fit ​​part 212 can be a buckle and the snap-fit ​​mating part 222 can be a snap hole.

[0045] In some embodiments, see Figure 1 The container body 1 may have inwardly recessed handle grooves 12 on both sides of its end.

[0046] By providing a handle groove 12 at the end of the container body 1, the container body 1 has an embedded handle structure instead of an outward protruding handle structure, thereby saving the space occupied by the container body 1 and allowing more container bodies 1 to be arranged in the limited space within the hopper 10.

[0047] like Figure 3 As shown, this utility model embodiment also provides a cooking device, including a hopper 10, a pump body 20, a pipe 30, and the aforementioned seasoning storage device; the pump body 20 is fixedly installed in the hopper 10; the container body 1 of the seasoning storage device is movably installed in the hopper 10; one end of the pipe 30 is connected to the pump body 20, and the other end of the pipe 30 extends into the container body 1 through the outlet 11; when the container body 1 moves away from the pump body 20, the pipe 30 extends out of the container body 1 through the outlet 11.

[0048] The cooking device provided in this embodiment of the present invention includes the aforementioned seasoning storage device, and therefore has all the beneficial effects of the seasoning storage device, which will not be repeated here.

[0049] In some embodiments, one end of the pipe 30 is fixedly or movably connected to the pump body 20; when the container body 1 moves away from the pump body 20, the pipe 30 can extend and retract within the container body 1, that is, the pipe 30 can extend out of the container body 1 or retract into the container body 1 via the outlet 11.

[0050] In other words, the position of the end of the pipe 30 connected to the pump body 20 can be fixed, or it can extend or retract relative to the pump body 20. The extension and retraction of the pipe 30 relative to the pump body 20 can, on the one hand, reduce the length of the pipe 30 extending out of the container body 1 when the container body 1 is pulled out of the hopper 10, thereby further reducing the occurrence of material leakage from the pipe 30; on the other hand, it can prevent the internal pipes of the pump body 20 from bending.

[0051] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model, and not to limit it. Although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some of the technical features. Such modifications or substitutions do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model.
