[0025] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0026] First embodiment: See Figures 1-6 This electric steamer includes a base 1 and a heating plate 2. The base 1 has a surrounding part 11, which is arranged circumferentially along the outer side of the heating plate 2. A sealing ring 3 is provided on the outer side of the heating plate 2. The sealing ring 3 is tightly fitted with the surrounding part 11 and the heating plate 2 respectively. A clamping part 41 is provided on the side of the surrounding part 11 facing away from the heating plate 2. The clamping part 41 is tightly fitted with the surrounding part 11 to press the sealing ring 3. By setting the clamping part 41, the pressure of the surrounding part 11 on the sealing ring 3 is increased while reducing the chance of deformation of the surrounding part 11, thereby reducing the chance of water leakage at the connection between the base 1 and the heating plate 2.

[0027] Furthermore, a fixing frame 4 is provided on the outer side of the heating plate 2. The fixing frame 4 is connected and fixed to the base 1 by a locking member. The vertical sides of the heating plate 2 abut against the fixing frame 4 and the base 1 respectively. The fixing frame 4 can further improve the connection strength between the heating plate 2 and the base 1.

[0028] The locking component can preferably be a screw and a stud. The stud and the base 1 are integrally formed. The fixing frame 4 is provided with screw holes. The screw cooperates with the screw holes and the stud to achieve the installation and fixing effect of the fixing frame 4 and the base 1.

[0029] Furthermore, the clamping part 41 is disposed on the fixed frame 4, and the fixed frame 4 and the clamping part 41 are integrally formed. The base 1 and the fixed frame 4 are respectively formed by injection molding. After the fixed frame 4 and the base 1 are installed and fixed, the clamping part 41 can be connected and cooperated with the edge part 11 simultaneously, which simplifies the assembly difficulty.

[0030] Furthermore, the clamping part 41 is block-shaped, and the fixing frame 4 is provided with multiple clamping parts 41. Different clamping parts 41 are evenly distributed along the circumference, so that the force on the edge part 11 along the circumference is more uniform.

[0031] Furthermore, the sealing ring 3 has a T-shaped cross-section, and includes a vertical side 31 and a horizontal side 32 disposed in the middle section of the vertical side 31, which relatively increases the sealing area of ​​the sealing ring 3 surface, thereby improving the sealing effect.

[0032] The base 1 is provided with a limiting groove 12 corresponding to the vertical side 31. The surrounding part 11 is located on the outside of the limiting groove 12. The vertical side 31 is partially embedded in the limiting groove 12 and fits tightly with each other. The vertical sides of the horizontal side 32 fit tightly with the heating plate 2 and the upper periphery of the limiting groove 12 respectively. The limiting groove 12 can limit and fix the sealing ring 3, thereby improving the installation accuracy of the sealing ring 3.

[0033] Furthermore, a number of reinforcing connecting ribs 121 are distributed inside the limiting groove 12. The reinforcing connecting ribs 121 are integrally formed with the radial sides of the inner wall of the limiting groove 12, thereby improving the structural strength of the limiting groove 12 and further reducing the chance of deformation of the limiting groove 12 and the surrounding edge 11.

[0034] Furthermore, the reinforcing connecting ribs 121 are evenly distributed along the circumference of the limiting groove 12, and the vertical side 31 abuts against the reinforcing connecting ribs 121. The reinforcing connecting ribs 121 can also play a role in the installation and positioning of the sealing ring 3.

[0035] Furthermore, the heating plate 2 has a heating surface for heating liquid, and a liquid heating cavity 13 is provided on the base 1 at a position above the heating surface. The liquid heating cavity 13 is concave in shape, and the vertical projection shape of the liquid heating cavity 13 is similar to the shape of the heating plate 2, so that the liquid can be heated more concentratedly by the heating plate 2, thereby generating steam for cooking better.

[0036] Furthermore, a water inlet 14 is provided on the base 1 at the position corresponding to the liquid heating chamber 13. The water inlet 14 is connected to a water guide pipe 5. A clamping block 42 is provided on the fixing frame 4. The clamping block 42 has a U-shaped clamping cavity 421. The water guide pipe 5 is tightly connected to the clamping cavity 421. The water guide pipe 5 and the water inlet 14 are connected and fixed by the clamping block 42. The fixing bracket 4 exerts pressure on the clamping block 42, which transmits this pressure to the water guide pipe 5. A counter-pressure is formed between the clamping block and the water inlet 14. This pressure allows the water guide pipe 5 to be tightly connected and fixed to the water inlet 14, reducing the chance of loosening and leakage, and improving the overall quality of the product. Second embodiment: See Figure 7 , Figure 8 The difference between this embodiment and the first embodiment is that the clamping part 41 of this electric steamer is annular in shape, and the clamping part 41 is provided with a relief notch 411 for matching with the base 1, which can further improve the clamping and anti-deformation effect of the clamping part 41 on the surrounding edge 11, thereby further reducing the chance of water leakage at the connection between the base 1 and the heating plate 2.

[0037] The remaining undescribed parts are the same as in the first embodiment and will not be repeated here.

[0038] The above embodiments are merely preferred embodiments of this utility model, and other implementations are also possible. Those skilled in the art can make equivalent modifications or substitutions without departing from the spirit of this utility model, and all such equivalent modifications or substitutions are included within the scope set forth in the claims of this application.
