Upper cover assembly and cooking utensil

Abstract

The invention provides an upper cover assembly and a cooking utensil. The cooking utensil comprises an upper cover plate. The upper cover assembly for the cooking utensil comprises a cleaning cavity, a sewage drainage device which is communicated with a sewage drainage hole, a connecting rod, a valve which is matched with a feeding hole, and a driving device which is located outside the cleaning cavity and used for driving the connecting rod to move. A mounting hole is formed in the side wall of the cleaning cavity. The feeding hole and the sewage drainage hole are formed in the bottom of the cleaning cavity. The connecting rod is arranged on the side wall of the cleaning cavity through the mounting hole in a penetrating mode, the first end of the connecting rod is located inside the cleaning cavity and the second end of the connecting rod is located outside the cleaning cavity, wherein the first end of the connecting rod is connected with the valve in order to drive the valve to move between a first position and a second position, the first position is used for blocking the feeding hole to close the feeding hole, and the second position is used for avoiding the feeding hole to open the feeding hole. According to the upper cover assembly, the driving device outside the cleaning cavity controls the connecting rod to make the valve move, and therefore the goal of opening or closing the feeding hole is achieved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of kitchen appliances, in particular to an upper cover assembly and a cooking utensil. Background technique [0002] At present, the automatic rice cookers on the market mainly use the inner pot to wash the rice or use the external washing method to transfer the rice to the inner pot through the pipeline. [0003] The main disadvantage of the rice washing method in the inner pot: it is difficult to discharge sewage. [0004] After external washing, the rice is transferred to the inner pot through the pipeline: the rice is easy to stick to the pipeline. [0005] The rice washing box placed above the inner pot of the rice cooker, after the rice washing is completed in it, the bottom valve opens, and the rice water enters the inner pot under gravity and other assistance, which is a better way; the rice washing process involves entering rice, water , air intake, rice washing, sewage discharge, rice washing into the inne...

[0003] The main disadvantage of the rice washing method in the inner pot: it is difficult to discharge sewage

[0005] The rice washing box placed above the inner pot of the rice cooker, after the rice washing is completed in it, the valve at the bottom opens, and the rice water enters the inner pot under gravity and other assistance, which is a better way; the rice washing process involves entering rice, water , air intake, rice washing, sewage discharge, rice washing into the inner pot and other steps require corresponding equipment. Some equipment needs to be placed in the rice washing box. Too many and too complicated structures are not easy to maintain and will affect the rice washing process.
