Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of cooking robot technology, and more specifically, to a cooking robot that facilitates automatic feeding. Background Technology

[0002] With the improvement of living standards, various automatic cooking machines are becoming increasingly popular in order to improve cooking efficiency. Some designers have designed stir-fry robots that can stir-fry food. These stir-fry robots can effectively reduce labor costs and the cooking quality is relatively stable. They can be widely used in canteens, hotels and other places. However, existing drum-type stir-fry robots have the following shortcomings: Traditional cooking robots do not have an automatic feeding mechanism for various seasonings such as salt, sugar, and MSG, which means that manual feeding is still required during the cooking process, making the operation quite cumbersome. Furthermore, the pot body is mostly fixed inside the shell, which makes it inconvenient to clean the inner wall of the pot after use. Long-term use can easily affect the cleanliness of the pot's interior. Utility Model Content
