Further, as shown in fig. 1 and 2, connecting ribs 303 are connected between adjacent ribs 301, and the vertical height of the connecting ribs 303 is smaller than that of the ribs 301; or, the connecting rib 303 is provided with a steam through hole (not shown in the figure) for steam to pass through.
Connecting ribs 303 are connected between adjacent blocking ribs 301 to enhance the overall structural strength of the grid 30; the vertical height of the connecting ribs 303 is smaller than that of the blocking ribs 301, or the connecting ribs 303 are provided with steam through holes for steam to pass through, so that the arrangement of the connecting ribs 303 can not influence the steam flowing in the steam channels 302 enclosed between the adjacent blocking ribs 301.
In one embodiment of the present invention, as shown in fig. 6, a plurality of ribs 201 are provided on an inner wall surface of a top wall of the valve cover 20, the shape of the ribs 201 is adapted to the shape of the steam channel 302, a limit groove 202 with an open lower end is defined between adjacent ribs 201, and an upper end portion of the rib 301 is limited in the limit groove 202.
The strength of the valve cover 20 is effectively enhanced by additionally arranging the reinforcing ribs 201 on the valve cover 20 of the steam valve, the valve cover 20 is prevented from being deformed due to overhigh temperature in the working process, and particularly for the steam valve with relatively large size, the strength of the valve cover 20 is reduced and is easy to be subjected to thermal deformation along with the increase of the size of the valve cover 20, and the effect of preventing the valve cover 20 from being deformed by heating is more obvious by arranging the reinforcing ribs 201 on the valve cover 20; the upper end parts of the blocking ribs 301 are limited in limiting grooves 202 defined between adjacent reinforcing ribs 201, the effect of fixing the grids 30 is achieved, and the problems that the grids 30 are not firmly fixed in the steam cavity and are easy to move are solved.
An embodiment of another aspect of the present invention provides a cooking appliance (not shown in the drawings), comprising: the upper cover and the steam valve of any one of the above, the upper cover has a mounting cavity, and the steam valve is mounted in the mounting cavity.
The cooking appliance provided by the embodiment of the invention comprises the steam valve, so that the cooking appliance has the beneficial effects of the steam valve.
In one embodiment of the invention, the cooking appliance is an electric rice cooker or an electric steamer.
Of course, the cooking appliance may be other cooking appliances that use a steam valve to exhaust steam, besides the electric cooker or the electric steamer, so long as the cooking appliance does not deviate from the design concept of the present invention, and the cooking appliance is within the protection scope of the present invention.
In summary, according to the steam valve provided by the embodiment of the invention, the grid is detachably mounted on the valve seat in a clamping manner, so that the assembly and the disassembly are convenient, the time and the labor are saved, the grid and the valve seat are convenient to disassemble for omnibearing cleaning, the problems that cleaning is difficult or incomplete due to the fact that rice soup coagulum and the like generated by cooking are attached to dead corners formed between the grid and the valve seat, and the problems that a steam cavity of the steam valve is blocked, a defoaming effect is poor, cooking time is prolonged and the like due to the fact that the grid is difficult or incomplete to clean are avoided; through the relative size or the relative position of buckle on reasonable design grid and the disk seat, reach good prevent slow-witted effect, avoid appearing the reverse problem of grid dress.
In the description of the present invention, unless explicitly stated and limited otherwise, the terms "connected," "fixed," and the like are to be construed broadly, and for example, "connected" may be a fixed connection, a removable connection, or an integral or electrical connection; can be directly connected or indirectly connected through an intermediate medium. The specific meaning of the above terms in the present invention can be understood by those of ordinary skill in the art according to the specific circumstances.
In the description of the present specification, the terms "one embodiment," "some embodiments," "particular embodiments," and the like, mean that a particular feature, structure, material, or characteristic described in connection with the embodiment or example is included in at least one embodiment or example of the present invention. In this specification, schematic representations of the above terms do not necessarily refer to the same embodiment or example. Furthermore, the particular features, structures, materials, or characteristics described may be combined in any suitable manner in any one or more embodiments or examples.
The above is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention, and is not intended to limit the present invention, but various modifications and variations can be made to the present invention by those skilled in the art. Any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
