As shown in fig. 1 and 2, the cooking appliance 200 further includes a spill prevention device 100, and the spill prevention device 100 is provided in the cover 220. The detection principle of the anti-overflow device 100 according to the present invention is a capacitance sensing principle, that is, when the medium (such as foam) in the inner pan 212 of the cooking utensil 200 approaches or contacts the detection component (such as the conductive probe 110 in the present application, which will be described in detail below) of the anti-overflow device, a capacitance value change thereof is caused, and such a change is converted into a detectable digital signal, so as to determine whether to perform the anti-overflow operation.
Specifically, as shown in fig. 1 and 2, the overfill prevention device 100 includes a conductive probe 110, a detection circuit electrically connected to the conductive probe 110, and a control module electrically connected to the detection circuit. The conductive probe 110 has a sensing end 111 and a connection end 112. The sensing end 111 of the conductive probe 110 is the portion that extends into the inner pot 212 through the inner lid 222, and the connection end 112 is connected to the sensing circuitry.

The outer surface of the detecting portion 121 constitutes a detecting surface, wherein the capacitance of the conductive probe 110 can be changed as the detecting surface approaches or contacts the medium in the cooking utensil 200, thereby forming a capacitive detecting device. When the medium inside the cooking appliance 200 approaches or contacts the sensing surface, the capacitance value of the conductive probe 110 changes. The detection circuit is electrically connected to the conductive probe 110, and the detection circuit generates a detection signal by detecting a change in capacitance value of the conductive probe 110.

Through setting up detection portion 121 to the sphere that matches with conductive probe 110, can be so that it has slick and sly surface, when the foam is left over on detection portion 121 like this, these foams can be along spherical surface landing to reduce the foam adhesion, avoid leading and remain the foam on detection portion 121 and lead to the misjudgement, and then reduced the misjudgement probability that the anti-overflow detected by a wide margin. Further, by making the gap between the detecting part 121 and the detecting end 111 small, the detection delay can be reduced and the sensitivity can be improved.
