Description

Feeding device for intelligent cooking machine Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of cooking equipment, and in particular to a feeding device used in an intelligent cooking machine. Background Art

[0002] In the existing technology, the cooking process of the cooking machine has been automated. The user only needs to put the food box filled with ingredients into the cooking machine, and the cooking machine can automatically unload the ingredients. Most existing cooking machines need to be flipped (flipped inside the machine or manually flipped by the user and then put into the cooking machine) so that the discharge port of the food box faces downward for unloading.

[0003] As the utility model patent submitted by the present applicant to the State Intellectual Property Office on March 1, 2023 (name: unloading device for intelligent cooking machine; application number: 202320345647.2; authorization announcement number: CN219813845U), a unloading device is disclosed, which includes a food box installation assembly, a door opening motor and a door opening mechanism for controlling the release and opening of the compartment door panel, and a door closing motor and a door closing mechanism for controlling the reset and closing of the compartment door panel; the food box installation assembly includes a base frame, a compartment door panel and a food box installed on the base frame, etc. The opening of the compartment of the food box is opposite to the compartment door panel. In order to facilitate the user to remove the food box installation assembly and lift the compartment door panel by hand to put food into the compartment and perform cleaning and maintenance work, a handle is installed in the middle of the bottom surface of the movable side of each compartment door panel. The unloading device of this structure has the following shortcomings:

[0004] 1. When placing the food to be fried into the compartment, the compartment door panel on the compartment opening must be opened first. During the process of placing the food, due to the limited opening angle of the compartment door panel under this structure, accidentally touching the compartment door panel may cause the compartment door panel to fall down and cover the opening, resulting in low efficiency of the food placement operation.

[0005] 2. After the ingredients are placed, you need to first lock the door panel on the base frame to close the opening, then manually flip the ingredient box installation assembly 180 degrees so that the opening faces downward, and then insert the ingredient box installation assembly into the corresponding position of the cooking machine. This process is more troublesome; at the same time, during the manual flipping process, the degree of crushing of fragile ingredients such as tofu and solidified animal blood is increased.

Best Mode for Carrying Out the Invention

[0027] The following embodiments of the present invention are described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and examples. The following examples are used to illustrate the present invention but are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention.

[0028] The feeding device for the intelligent cooking machine 100 of the present invention (hereinafter referred to as the feeding device) is configured to open the upper and lower ends of each compartment 25 of the food box 1 in the feeding box assembly 20. This structure can directly load spare food into each compartment 25 from the upper opening 251 of the compartment 25, and close or open the lower opening 252 through the compartment door panel 3 to store or feed the food. After the food is loaded, there is no need to flip the feeding box assembly 20 to insert it into the cooking machine 100. The feeding device of the present invention simplifies operation and greatly improves user convenience.

[0029] 1 to 7 , the feeding device includes the feeding box assembly 20 , a receiving box 6 , a bracket provided on the inner wall of the cavity of the cooking machine 100 and used to support the feeding box assembly 20 , a door opening mechanism 8 and a door closing mechanism 9 .

[0030] Blanking box assembly 20

[0031] As shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 2 , the material box assembly 20 includes a food box 1 having at least two compartments 25 , a base frame 2 for receiving the food box 1 , and a door lock assembly 5 provided on the base frame 2 .

[0032] 1. Base frame 2

[0033] The base frame 2 includes a rectangular base frame 23 surrounded by four frames and a crossbeam 24 spanning the left and right frames 234 of the base frame 23 (taking the paper direction of Figure 1 as an example, the upper, lower, left, right, front, rear, inside and outside are the upper, lower, left, right, front, rear, inside and outside of each component in the blanking box assembly 20 respectively). The four frames are flush with the crossbeam 24 and enclose two front and rear windows.

[0034] 2. Food box 1

[0035] The compartments 25 of the food box 1 described in the present invention are all rectangular bodies with open ends at the upper and lower ends. When the number of the compartments 25 is two, the lower openings 252 of the two compartments 25 are just connected to the two windows in a one-to-one correspondence. When more than two compartments 25 are required, vertical partitions 26 can be added in the compartment 25 in the form of vertical beams 24 to divide the compartment 25 into multiple small compartments 25.

[0036] Preferably, the vertical partitions 26 are arranged in the compartments 25 in the form of slots 235, so that the vertical partitions 26 can be quickly inserted or removed to flexibly adjust the volume and quantity of the compartments 25 to meet the storage volume or separate storage requirements of various ingredients in different cooking dishes.

[0037] As shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 2 , the food box 1 can be integrally formed with the base frame 2 . The integrally formed structure can seamlessly connect the compartment 25 and the window, thereby avoiding the accumulation of dirt and grime, and providing an aesthetically pleasing overall structure.

[0038] The food box 1 can also be detachably connected to the base frame 2, and the detachable connection structure can be a snap connection or a slide 27-type plug-in connection. As shown in Figure 3, slots 235 are provided on the upper surfaces 21 of the left frame 233 and the right frame 234 of the base frame 23. Correspondingly, horizontally outwardly extending convex edges 13 are provided on the left and right sides of the bottom of the food box 1, and a sealing plate groove is provided in the convex edge 13 for inserting the pull-out sealing plate 14 for closing the lower opening 252 of each compartment 25 of the food box 1.

[0039] Before putting the food to be fried into each compartment 25 of the food box 1, first insert the pull-out sealing plate 14 into the sealing plate groove to close the lower opening 252 of each compartment. After the food is prepared, insert the convex edge 13 into the slot 235 on the corresponding side to quickly install the food box 1 on the base frame 2. After pulling out the pull-out sealing plate 14, the lower opening 252 of each compartment 25 corresponds to the compartment door plate 3 on the base frame 2 one by one.

[0040] The food box 1 and the base frame 2 are set to a detachable structure. On the one hand, it is convenient to clean the food box 1 separately. On the other hand, the food box 1 can be taken out separately to prepare food, and there is no need to take out the base frame 2 every time to prepare food, thereby increasing the operating weight. At the same time, the number of times the base frame 2 must be cleaned after each cooking is completed can be reduced (the food box 1 needs to be cleaned after each cooking is completed, while the base frame 2 must be taken out for cleaning at the same time if an integrated structure is adopted). Relatively speaking, the service life of the base frame 2 can be extended.

[0041] As shown in Figures 1 and 2, the food box 1 is set on the upper surface 21 of the base frame 2, and a door panel 3 is provided on the lower surface 22 of the base frame 2 at a position corresponding to each compartment 25, which can close or open the lower opening 252 of the compartment 25.

[0042] Specifically, an axle seat 4 for fixing the door shaft 31 is provided on the front frame 231 and the rear frame 232 of the base frame 23. Preferably, an axle seat 4 is provided on the left and right sides of the lower surface 22 of the front frame 231. The door shaft 31 is fixed between the two axle seats 4. A plurality of door panels 3 corresponding to a plurality of compartments 25 located on the front side of the crossbeam 24 share this door shaft 31. The restraining end of the door panel 3 is connected to the door shaft 31 in a manner that is rotatable relative to the door shaft 31. The free end of the door panel 3 overlaps the crossbeam 24 to close the lower opening 252 of the corresponding compartment 25. The door shaft 31 and the door on the rear frame 232 also have the same mounting structure.

[0043] 3. Door lock assembly 5

[0044] The door lock assembly 5 is installed on the cross beam 24 , and the door lock assembly 5 can lock the free end of the door panel 3 on the cross beam 24 so that the inner surface of the door panel 3 covers the lower opening 252 .

[0045] As shown in Figure 4, the material box assembly 20 can be quickly disassembled and assembled in the cooking machine 100 as a whole. Before cooking with the cooking machine 100, take out the material box assembly 20 and place the material box assembly 20 horizontally on the side dish table. The user can directly put the ingredients to be cooked into each compartment 25 from the upper opening 251 of each compartment 25, and then pick up the material box assembly 20 to insert it into the bracket. At this time, the door lock assembly 5 is facing the door opening mechanism 8, and the wok 10 of the cooking machine 100 is located directly below the material box assembly 20. The door opening mechanism 8 opens the compartment door panel 3 in sequence according to the cooking instructions of the cooking machine 100 to add materials. Compared with the existing technology, this operation process saves some manual actions, improves the convenience of operation, and provides a higher user experience.

[0046] The specific structure of the door lock assembly 5 adopts the existing technology, and reference can be made to the technical solution of "door lock" in the utility model patent (invention name: unloading device for intelligent cooking machine 100; application number: 202320345647.2; authorization announcement number: CN219813845U), which will not be repeated here.

[0047] 2. Storage Box 6

[0048] Another important improvement of the present invention is that at least one of all the compartments 25 is provided with a storage box 6 with an open upper end, and the storage box 6 is mainly used to hold fluid ingredients, such as egg liquid, thickening liquid, etc. Adding a storage box 6 on the basis of the above-mentioned discharge box assembly 20 can improve the diversity of ingredients cooked by the cooking machine 100 and meet user needs.

[0049] The specific structure of the accommodating box 6 will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0050] The flipping direction of the storage box 6 in the compartment 25 can be flipped downward in any direction. When different flipping directions are set, the shape of the storage box 6 is also different. Preferably, as shown in Figure 5, the outer peripheral shape of the storage box 6 of the present invention is a rectangular body adapted to the inner cavity shape of the compartment 25.

[0051] In order to guide the food into the wok 10 more accurately when the receiving box 6 is turned downward, the side of the receiving box 6 from which the fluid flows out (hereinafter referred to as the discharge surface 61) is a curved surface or an inclined surface.

[0052] In order to enable the storage box 6 to automatically rotate and unload materials after the corresponding door panel 3 of the compartment 25 is opened, a rotating connection structure is provided on the outer wall of the storage box 6 and the inner wall of the corresponding compartment 25 (the space enclosed by the box body is the inside, and the surface of the box body facing the outside is the outside. The definition of the inside and outside of the compartment 25 is the same as that of the storage box 6). The rotating connection structure preferably has the following two structures:

[0053] 1. Short shaft 63 and shaft bracket

[0054] The rotating connection structure includes a short shaft 63 provided on two opposite outer side walls of the accommodating box 6 and a shaft frame provided on two inner side walls of the compartment 25 , wherein the short shaft 63 is mounted on the corresponding shaft frame.

[0055] Preferably, the axle frame is U-shaped, and the axle frame can be composed of a recessed position 11 along the inner wall of the compartment 25, which is recessed into the plate and has a U-shaped opening facing upward; it can also be a U-shaped component protruding from the inner wall of the compartment 25; or it can be a U-shaped groove running through the side wall of the compartment 25.

[0056] In order to take into account the function of the food box 1 to store tangible food (tangible food is formed solid food, such as meat slices, vegetables, etc.) and facilitate production and processing, as shown in Figure 5, the axis frame of the present invention is preferably composed of a recessed position 11 that is recessed into the plate along the inner wall of the compartment 25.

[0057] Furthermore, in order to facilitate the rapid insertion of the storage box 6 onto the shaft rack, the U-shaped opening of the recess 11 extends upward to the top edge of the side wall of the compartment 25. When the storage box 6 is placed, the short shaft 63 can be quickly positioned and inserted, and pushed downward to the bottom of the recess 11 so that the storage box 6 can be mounted in the compartment 25.

[0058] The setting principle of the storage box 6 is to set the volume of the storage box 6 to the maximum while ensuring that the storage box 6 can rotate freely in the compartment 25 so that the fluid ingredients therein can be poured into the wok 10, and at the same time, the flipping direction of the storage box 6 is toward the center of the wok 10 while ensuring the volume.

[0059] The storage box 6 is usually placed in a larger compartment 25. Without adding counterweights, when the compartment door panel 3 is opened, in order to enable the storage box 6 to flip under the food and its own gravity, the center of gravity of the storage box 6 needs to be set outside the vertical plane where the line connecting the two short axes 63 is located, and at the same time, the outer wall of the storage box 6 where the short axis 63 is located is determined according to the shape of the compartment 25.

[0060] For example: when the bin 25 is a cube, the two short axes 63 are symmetrically installed on the left outer wall and the right outer wall of the accommodating box 6, and correspondingly, the axis frame is set on the left and right inner walls of the bin 25 where the accommodating box 6 is located; the accommodating box 6 is flipped downward with its discharge port 62 facing the direction of the crossbeam 24.

[0061] When the bin 25 is in the shape of a cuboid, the two short axes 63 are symmetrically mounted on the front outer wall and the rear outer wall of the accommodating box 6. Correspondingly, the axis frame is arranged on the front and rear inner walls of the bin 25 where the accommodating box 6 is located; the accommodating box 6 is flipped downward with its discharge port 62 facing the left side wall or the right side wall of the bin 25.

[0062] Blanking action of the receiving box 6:

[0063] Before cooking, the storage box 6 is placed in the compartment 25, and the short shaft 63 is placed on the shaft frame. The lower bottom surface of the storage box 6 is pressed against the inner surface of the compartment door plate 3 corresponding to the compartment 25. When the storage box 6 needs to be unloaded, the door opening mechanism 8 opens the compartment door plate 3. Under the action of the gravity of the storage box 6, the short shaft 63 rotates in the shaft frame to support the storage box 6 with its discharge port 62 from top to bottom and finally toward the pot mouth of the wok 10 to rotate so that the discharge port 62 is toward the pot mouth, thereby realizing the unloading of fluid ingredients; after unloading is completed, the door closing mechanism 9 retracts the storage box 6 into the compartment 25 while pushing the compartment door plate 3 upward to cover the lower opening 252.

[0064] 2. Hook 64 and positioning shaft 12

[0065] As shown in Figure 6, the rotating connection structure can also include hooks 64 arranged at the same side corners of the bottom of the two opposite outer walls of the accommodating box 6 and positioning shafts 12 arranged at the bottom corners of the two inner walls of the compartment 25. The hooks 64 are clamped on the corresponding positioning shafts 12. To ensure that the accommodating box 6 can be flipped in the compartment 25, the length of the hook 64 to the farthest end of the outer wall where it is located is less than the width of the inner wall of the compartment 25 where the positioning shaft 12 is located.

[0066] The opening of the hook 64 is smaller than the diameter of the positioning shaft 12, and the hook 64 is an elastic member. When the hook 64 is pressed into the positioning shaft 12, the opening of the hook 64 presses against the positioning shaft 12 and opens under the action of the thrust so that the positioning shaft 12 is locked into the hook 64. The elastic force of the hook 64 is greater than the sum of the maximum weight of the food carried by the storage box 6 and the weight of the storage box 6 itself, so as to ensure that the hook 64 will not detach from the positioning shaft 12 during the process of flipping and unloading the food from the storage box 6.

[0067] The upper edge of the discharge surface 61 of the receiving box 6 is higher than the upper edge of the other side wall opposite thereto, so as to prevent the fluid food from being poured onto the side wall of the compartment 25 in advance during the rotation of the receiving box 6 .

[0068] Furthermore, in order to enable the receiving box 6 to flip more quickly when the door is opened, a counterweight 64 is provided on the outer side of the fluid discharge side wall to enable the receiving box 6 to rotate after the corresponding door plate 3 is opened.

[0069] 3. Bracket

[0070] The bracket is arranged on the inner side wall of the cavity of the cooking machine 100 and is used to support the material box assembly 20.

[0071] As shown in Figures 4 and 7, the bracket is composed of two long supporting plates 7. Preferably, the two supporting plates 7 are on the same horizontal plane and are respectively fixed to the left inner wall and the right inner wall 101 of the cavity. The upper surface 21 of one of the supporting plates 7 is upwardly protruded with a positioning guide rail 71 with an arc-shaped vertical cross-section along its length direction, and a slide groove 27 is upwardly recessed at a position opposite to the positioning guide rail 71 on the lower surface 22 of the base frame 23. When the lower box assembly 20 is placed on the bracket, the positioning guide rail 71 is inserted into the slide groove 27 to position the base frame 2.

[0072] 4. Door opening mechanism 8 and door closing mechanism 9.

[0073] 1. Door opening mechanism 8

[0074] The door opening mechanism 8 is arranged near the bracket and at a position opposite to the door lock assembly 5. Its specific structure adopts the existing technology, which can be referred to the authorized utility model patent cited above and will not be repeated here.

[0075] 2. Closing mechanism 9

[0076] The door closing mechanism 9 is provided at a position corresponding to each door panel 3 and can reset the opened door panel 3 from bottom to top.

[0077] The door closing mechanism 9 includes a door closing motor and a door closing dial 91. The main body of the door closing motor is fixed on the outer wall of the cavity. The output shaft of the door closing motor extends into the cavity through the outer wall of the cavity. The door closing dial 91 includes a connecting arm 912 and a toggle arm 913. A sleeve 911 is provided at one end of the connecting arm 912. The sleeve 911 is sleeved on the output shaft. The connecting arm 912 is arranged parallel to the nearby side wall of the cavity. The toggle arm 913 extends inward along the other end of the connecting arm 912, and under the action of the door closing motor, the toggle arm 913 can push the corresponding door plate 3 to reset upward; after the reset is completed, the door closing motor rotates the toggle arm 913 to a position outside the door plate 3 to avoid affecting the opening of the door plate 3.

[0078] The door plate 3 is reset by the door closing mechanism 9 to facilitate the removal of the discharge box assembly 20; after the fluid is discharged using the receiving box 6, the receiving box 6 can be retracted into the bin 25 while the door plate 3 is reset. The structure is simple and has a high degree of automation. Modes for Carrying Out the Invention
