Detailed Implementation

[0040] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely for explaining the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present utility model without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0041] like Figures 1 to 7 As shown, this embodiment provides a steam oven with a water tank 3 inside the frying bucket 2, including:

[0042] The container 1 contains a frying drum 2, which contains a baking tray 4 and a triggering part.

[0043] A water tank 3 is disposed inside the frying bucket 2 and located below the baking tray 4; the water tank 3 is equipped with a water outlet valve 34, and when the water tank 3 is placed inside the frying bucket 2, the triggering unit switches the water outlet valve 34 to the open state; and,

[0044] A heating component is disposed inside the housing 1 and is used to heat the water flowing from the water box 3 into the fryer 2 to generate steam.

[0045] In some specific implementations, such as Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, when the water box 3 is placed inside the frying bucket 2, in order to facilitate the triggering part to drive the water outlet valve 34 to open, the triggering part is a first protrusion 21 provided on the upper side of the bottom wall of the frying bucket 2, specifically a circular first protrusion 21 provided in the middle of the bottom wall of the frying bucket 2. The water outlet valve 34 is provided on the bottom wall of the water box 3. When the water box 3 is placed inside the frying bucket 2, the first protrusion 21 abuts against the water outlet valve 34 to switch the water outlet valve 34 to the open state.

[0046] In some specific implementations, such as Figure 6 As shown, to facilitate the installation of the water outlet valve 34, the bottom wall of the water box 3 is provided with a downwardly extending water leakage hole 33, and the water outlet valve 34 includes:

[0047] The valve body 341 is installed at the water leakage hole 33, and the valve body 341 is provided with a water outlet;

[0048] A valve core 342 is slidably inserted into the outlet. The upper end of the valve core 342 is provided with a sealing portion 343, and the lower end of the valve core 342 is provided with an abutting end 344. The abutting end 344 abuts against the first protrusion 21, causing the valve core 342 to slide upwards, thereby opening the outlet by the sealing portion 343; and...

[0049] The elastic element 345 is used to drive the valve core 342 downward and cause the sealing part 343 to block the water outlet. Specifically, the valve core 342 is provided with an annular step, and the elastic element 345 is a spring located between the annular step and the valve body 341.

[0050] When the water box 3 is not placed inside the frying bucket 2, the valve core 342 slides downward under the action of the spring, causing the sealing part 343 to block the water outlet and prevent water from flowing out. When the water box 3 is placed inside the frying bucket 2, the first protrusion 21 abuts against the abutment end 344, driving the valve core 342 upward, thereby causing the sealing part 343 to disengage from the water outlet, and the water in the water box 3 flows out from the water outlet and into the frying bucket 2. The bottom wall of the water box 3 can be configured to slope towards the water outlet.

[0051] In some specific implementations, such as Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 5As shown, the water box 3 includes a box body 31 and an upper cover 32 located on the upper side of the box body 31. The upper cover 32 is provided with at least one water inlet hole 321, and a removable cap can be provided at the water inlet hole 321. Specifically, two water inlets 321 can be provided, which not only facilitates adding water to the water box 3, but also facilitates the user to remove the water box 3 from or place it in the frying bucket 2. The upper cover 32 can be connected to the box body 31 by bolts or direct welding.

[0052] In some specific implementations, such as Figure 2 As shown, to facilitate the steam generated from the water flowing from the water tank 3 into the frying bucket 2 to replenish the food, a first steam channel 24 is provided between the upper end of the water tank 3 and the baking tray 4, allowing steam to enter the first steam channel 24 and replenish the food upwards. A second steam channel 25 is provided between the side wall of the water tank 3 and the side wall of the frying bucket 2, and a steam generating zone 26 is provided between the bottom wall of the water tank 3 and the bottom wall of the frying bucket 2. That is, after the water in the water tank 3 flows out, it flows into the steam generating zone 26 on the upper side of the bottom wall of the frying bucket 2, where it is heated by the heating element below to generate steam. The steam generating zone 26 is connected to the first steam channel 24 through the second steam channel 25. The second steam channel 25 also facilitates the downward flow of oil dripping from the food on the baking tray 4 into the bottom of the frying bucket 2. Furthermore, the steam can soften the oil, making it convenient for the user to remove the water tank and clean the bottom of the frying bucket after cooking.

[0053] In some specific implementations, such as Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, in order to facilitate the installation of the baking tray 4 and the water tank 3, the frying barrel 2 is provided with several baking tray 4 support parts and water tank 3 support parts. The baking tray 4 support parts are used to support the baking tray 4, and the water tank 3 support parts are used to support the water tank 3.

[0054] Each of the baking trays 4 has a second protrusion 22, and each second protrusion 22 is located at the corner of the adjacent side walls of the frying drum 2, specifically four second protrusions 22. Each of the four corners of the baking tray 4 is provided with a baking tray support 41, which is supported on the second protrusions 22. The water box 3 is located between the second protrusions 22, and the side wall of the water box 3 forms the second steam channel 25 between the side wall of the water box 3 and the side wall of the frying drum 2.

[0055] Each of the water tank 3 supports a third protrusion 23, and each third protrusion 23 is disposed on the corresponding side wall of the frying barrel 2. Specifically, there are four third protrusions 23, and each third protrusion 23 is located between two adjacent second protrusions 22. Furthermore, the third protrusions 23 are lower than the second protrusions 22.

[0056] The water tank 3 has four recessed grooves 35 on its bottom wall near each side wall. These grooves connect the steam generating area 26 and the second steam channel 25. When the bottom wall of the water tank 3 rests against the third protrusion 23, a certain distance is formed between the grooves 35 and the third protrusion 23, thus connecting the steam generating area 26 and the second steam channel 25. This allows the steam generated in the steam generating area 26 to smoothly enter the frying bucket 2 through the second steam channel 25 to replenish the water in the food.

[0057] In some specific implementations, such as Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 7 As shown, the heating component is a heating element 12. A mounting groove 11 is provided at the bottom of the housing 1, located below the frying drum 2. The heating element 12 is rotatably mounted within the mounting groove 11. Specifically, when the user needs to clean the oil stains in the mounting groove 11 at the bottom of the housing 1, the heating element 12 can be rotated upwards by 90 degrees, facilitating the cleaning operation.

[0058] Working principle explanation:

[0059] The user adds an appropriate amount of water to the water tank 3 through the water inlet 321 on the top cover 32. The water tank 3 is then placed inside the frying drum 2. The first protrusion 21 in the center of the bottom wall of the frying drum 2 automatically opens the valve core 342, allowing the water in the water tank 3 to flow out. The heating element 12 then operates, heating the water at the bottom of the frying drum 2 to vaporize and generate steam. The steam flows upwards sequentially through the steam generation zone 26, the second steam channel 25, and the first steam channel 24, replenishing the moisture of the food and achieving a tender roasting effect.

[0060] This utility model is not limited to the above-mentioned optional embodiments. Under the premise of non-contradiction, the various solutions can be combined arbitrarily. Anyone can derive other forms of products under the guidance of this utility model. However, no matter what changes are made in their shape or structure, all technical solutions that fall within the scope of the claims of this utility model are within the protection scope of this utility model.
