A conventional pot for cooking is generally a substantially circular container made of a material such as metal, alloy, glass, or ceramic. In the cooking process, an operator is required to judge the cooking temperature of food in the pot according to experience so as to adjust the firepower according to different stages of different cooking. However, for non-professional chefs, it is difficult to precisely control the current cooking temperature of food, which is likely to cause various unexpected situations such as insufficient cooking and overcooking; for professional cooks, there is also a need for more precise control of cooking temperature to obtain better food taste, for example, in recent years, in the case of more popular low-temperature cooking, the cooks are required to precisely control the cooking temperature of food to be stable at a certain stage. Therefore, it is necessary to add a corresponding sensing unit on the pot to monitor the cooking temperature, boiling condition and other information of the food in the pot, and transmit the sensing signal of the sensing unit such as the temperature detection unit and/or the anti-overflow detection unit arranged on the pot to the controller of the heating device, so as to control the heating condition through the controller. The anti-overflow detection unit may be any suitable type such as a capacitance detection unit, a resistance detection unit, and the like.

For example, when the sensing unit senses that the cooking temperature is too high, the controller may control the heating apparatus to reduce the power to reduce the cooking temperature of the food; for another example, when the sensing unit senses that food in the pot is about to overflow, the controller may control the heating device to stop heating or reduce the fire power in response to a signal sensed by the sensing unit, so as to reduce the cooking temperature of the food, thereby avoiding the overflow; for another example, when the sensing unit senses that the temperature at a certain point in the pot is too high, the controller may control the heating device to lower the heating temperature at the position or stop the heating at the position.

Generally speaking, the sensing unit is directly connected with the controller of heating equipment through the cable and can realize the transmission of signal, however, because the pan needs to be washd after cooking to still need hold its end away from heating equipment sometimes in the culinary art process, so direct mode through the cable connection can't reach the pan and wash and the demand of using.

In view of the above, as shown in fig. 1 to 6, the present invention provides a signal transmission module 100 for attaching to a pot so as to transmit a signal sensed by a sensing unit 107 such as a temperature detection unit and/or an anti-overflow detection unit provided on the pot to a controller provided in a heating apparatus, so that the controller can adjust a cooking condition in response to the sensed signal of the sensing unit 107. The signal transmission module 100 includes: an outer cover 101, an inner cover 103, and a signal transmission member 105. Wherein, the inner cover 103 is used for being fixed on the outer side wall 201 of the pot body 200 of the pot; the outer cover 101 covers the inner cover 103 and encloses a receiving cavity with the inner cover 103 for at least partially receiving the signal transmission member 105; the signal transmission member 105 is used to communicatively connect a sensing unit 107 provided on the pot with a controller of the heating apparatus, and at least one of the sensing unit 107 and the signal transmission member 105 is fixed to the outer lid 101.

Specifically, the inner cover 103 may be detachably or non-detachably fixed on the outer sidewall 201 of the pot body 200. For example, the inner cover 103 may be fixed on the outer sidewall 201 of the pot body 200 by screwing, riveting, welding or bonding; for another example, inner lid 103 may be integrally formed with pan body 200 by any suitable means such as molding, casting, forging, etc. The inner cover 103 may be made of metal or plastic, etc. The outer cover 101 may also be made of metal or plastic. For example, the inner lid 103 may be made of stainless steel and the outer lid 101 of plastic, so that the inner lid 103 made of metal may facilitate the fixing with the pot body 200, and the outer lid 101 made of plastic may prevent burning of hands. For another example, the inner lid may be made of any suitable high temperature resistant heat insulating material such as polybutylene terephthalate (PBT), phenol resin (PF), a material coated with a high temperature resistant heat insulating coating on the surface, or ceramics, so that the inner lid not only can fix the outer lid, but also can isolate the heat of the pot body, prevent the heat from radiating between the inner lid and the outer lid, and then prevent the normal operation of the part of the signal transmission member and/or the sensing unit, which cannot bear the high temperature, from being affected. On this basis, the outer cover can be made of a plastic material to avoid scalding hands.

It will be readily appreciated that the length of the inner cover 103 and the outer cover 101 is not limited and that the width of the outer cover 101 is suitably greater than the width of the inner cover 103 so that the inner cover 103 is substantially wrapped when the outer cover 101 is closed over the inner cover 103.

As shown in fig. 3 and 4, in some examples, the inner lid 103 may be made of stainless steel in a substantially rectangular shape, and a rivet hole 1033 is provided at a top end of the outer lid 101 so as to be riveted with the outer sidewall 201 of the pot body 200 by a rivet. The outer cover 101 may be made of plastic in a substantially rectangular parallelepiped shape having a recess so that a receiving cavity for receiving the signal transmission member 105 is formed when the outer cover 101 is closed on the inner cover 103. In other examples, the outer cover 101 may be formed of plastic into an approximately elliptical cylinder having a certain depression, and the inner cover 103 may be formed of metal into an elliptical plate shape, so that a receiving cavity for receiving the signal transmission member 105 may be formed when the outer cover 101 is closed on the inner cover 103.

In this embodiment, the outer cover 101 and the inner cover 103 may be fastened by screwing, bonding, clipping, or other suitable means. For example, an insertion groove may be provided on an inner surface of the outer cover 101, and the inner cover 103 is inserted into the insertion groove.

As shown in fig. 2 to 6, the signal transmission member 105 is fixed in the accommodation cavity, for example, it may be fixed with the outer cover 101 or may also be fixed with the inner cover 103. Taking as an example the outer cover 101 shown in fig. 5, it comprises: a bottom wall 1015 and an arc sidewall 1013 fixed to the bottom wall 1015, wherein the top end of the arc sidewall 1013 is formed with an outward flange 1017, and the signal transmission member 105 is fixed to the bottom wall 1015. In order to communicatively connect the sensing unit 107 with the controller via the signal transmission member 105, in some examples, a first end of the signal transmission member 105 may extend into the receiving cavity, and a second end of the signal transmission member 105 may extend out of the outer cover 101 to be coupled with the controller of the heating apparatus. It will be readily understood that in other examples, the signal transmission member 105 is not limited to being located on the cover 101, and when the signal transmission member 105 is mounted on the cover 101, it is also not limited to being located on the bottom wall 1015 of the cover 101, but rather can be located on the curved sidewall 1013 of the cover 101.

In some examples, the signal transmission member 105 may include a wireless transceiver module, so that the signal transmission member 105 may wirelessly transmit the signal sensed by the sensing unit 107 to the controller of the heating apparatus by wireless transmission, and the signal transmission member 105 may communicate with the sensing unit 107 by wire or wirelessly. In this embodiment, the wireless communication may adopt any suitable wireless transmission module such as WiFi, bluetooth, ZigBee, and the like.

In other examples, the signal transmission member 105 may also include a coupler, so that the coupler may be plugged into a coupling terminal provided on the heating device to transmit the signal. Illustratively, a first end of the coupler extends into the receiving cavity and is in wired communication with the sensing unit 107, and a second end of the coupler extends out of the receiving cavity for plugging with a coupling terminal provided with the heating device, the coupling terminal being in wired communication with a controller of the heating device. Specifically, when the pot is placed on the heating apparatus, the coupler of the signal transmission module 100 is plugged with the coupling terminal of the heating apparatus, thereby achieving the mechanical connection and the wired communication connection of the signal transmission module 100 and the controller. Thus, when the pot needs to be cleaned or temporarily removed from the heating device, the coupler of the signal transmission module 100 only needs to be disconnected from the coupling terminal of the heating device.

As shown in fig. 2, 4, 5, and 6, in some examples, the coupler may include a housing 1051 and a plurality of rod-shaped conductive members 1053, the plurality of conductive members 1053 being arranged side by side along a length direction of the housing 1051; wherein, the middle part of the conductive part 1053 is accommodated in the housing 1051, the top end of the conductive part 1053 passes through the housing 1051 to be connected with the sensing unit 107 in communication, and the bottom end of the conductive part 1053 passes through the housing 1051 and the bottom wall 1015 of the outer cover 101 to be plugged with the coupling terminal of the heating device, thereby realizing the quick-release connection of the cooker and the heating device. By designing the coupler to comprise a rod-like part, a mechanical and communicative connection to the coupling terminal of the heating device can be efficiently achieved, the sensing signal of the sensing unit 107 and the control signal of the controller can be transferred through the conductive part 1053 of the coupler, and the power supply to the sensing unit 107 or other devices can also be achieved through the coupling terminal.

Referring to fig. 6, a plurality of partition ribs 1018 are formed on the inner surface of the arc-shaped sidewall 1013, and a receiving groove 1019 for receiving the tip end of the conductive member 1053 is formed between two adjacent partition ribs 1018. The positioning of the coupler is achieved by the spacer 1018, which also facilitates the communicative connection of the coupler rod-like member with the sensing unit 107.

The signal transmission module 100 fixed on the outer sidewall 201 of the pot body 200, the signal transmission module 100 including the outer cover 101, the inner cover 103 and the coupler of the present embodiment, and the sensing unit 107 such as the temperature detection unit and/or the anti-overflow detection unit provided on the pot body can be transmitted to the controller of the heating apparatus through the coupler of the signal transmission module 100 by wireless or wired transmission, so that the controller can precisely control the cooking condition of the food in response to the sensing signal of the sensing unit 107. When the cookware needs to be cleaned or is temporarily moved away from the heating equipment, the cookware can be very conveniently realized, so that the convenience of using the cookware is not influenced.

As shown in fig. 5 and 6, in some examples, a mounting portion 1011 for fixing the sensing unit 107 may be provided on an inner surface of the outer cover 101. Specifically, the sensing unit 107 may be mounted on the mounting portion 1011 by any suitable means such as adhesion, injection molding, or interference fit, and the sensing unit 107 may be, for example, a temperature detection unit or an anti-overflow detection unit.

With continued reference to fig. 5 and 6, the mounting portion 1011 includes an outer frame 10111 and at least one partition 10113 disposed in the outer frame 10111, at least a portion of the partition 10113 is provided with a notch 10115, and the notches 10115 on the partitions 10113 collectively form a clamping groove for clamping the sensing unit 107. A wire hole 10117 through which a connecting wire for communicatively connecting the sensing unit 107 and the coupler is passed is provided at one of the sidewalls of the outer frame 10111. Of course, in other examples, the mounting portion 1011 may be a rectangular, circular or other shaped protrusion, and the protrusion is hollowed with a slot, and the sensing unit 107 is held in the slot. By providing the engaging groove, the sensing unit 107 can be conveniently mounted on the signal transmission module 100, and the mounting portion 1011 is designed in such a manner that the outer frame 10111 is added with the partition 10113, so that the weight of the signal transmission module 100 can be reduced, and the manufacturing cost can be reduced.

In some examples, the outer frame 10111 may be provided as a rectangular frame as shown in fig. 5 and 6, and the length of the sensing unit 107 is equal to the length of the rectangular frame. The rectangular frame is arranged along the vertical direction, and the top wall of the rectangular frame is provided with a wire passing hole 10117 for a connecting wire to pass through. By designing the outer frame 10111 as a rectangular frame having the same length as the sensing unit 107, the sensing unit 107 can be just snapped into the rectangular frame, thereby preventing the sensing unit 107 from falling off. It should be noted that the length of the rectangular frame is equal to the length of the sensing unit 107, including the case that the length of the rectangular frame is slightly smaller than the length of the sensing unit 107, so that the sensing unit 107 is more firmly clamped in the rectangular frame.

As shown in FIG. 3, in some examples, the inner cover 103 is provided with an escape opening 1031, and a portion of the sensing unit 107 extends toward the outer sidewall 201 of the pot body 200 through the escape opening 1031. For example, sensing unit 107 can be a temperature sensing unit, a portion of which fits outside wall 201 of pan body 200 after passing through escape opening 1031 to sense the temperature of pan body 200. For another example, the sensing unit 107 can be an anti-overflow detecting unit, which extends into the pot 200 after passing through the avoiding opening 1031 of the inner cover 103 and the outer sidewall 201 of the pot 200 so as to detect the boiling state of food in the pot 200.

It is noted that in other examples, the pot comprises a pot lid, the sensing unit 107 is an overflow prevention detection unit, which is fixed to the pot lid and which is in wired or wireless communication connection with the signal transmission member 105 fixed to the outer lid 101. For example, a ring of metal rings or a ring of detection points is provided around the lid, which constitute an anti-overflow detection unit that is communicatively connected to the signal transmission member 105 by a connection line that is inactive or passes through the outer lid 101, so that the sensing signal of the sensing unit 107 is transmitted to the controller of the heating apparatus by the signal transmission member 105.

As shown in fig. 3 and 4, in some examples, the surface of the inner lid 103 facing the pan body 200 is formed with two opposite ribs 1035, and an insulating cavity is formed between the two ribs 1035 to prevent excessive temperature of the pan body 200 from being transmitted into the receiving cavity, so that the normal operation of the sensing unit 107, the signal transmission member 105 or other electronic elements in the receiving cavity can be ensured.

It will be readily appreciated that in some examples, a pot is provided comprising a pot body 200 and a signal transmission module 100 as in the above example mounted on an outer side wall 201 of the pot body 200. Specifically, the pot body 200 may be a flat-bottomed or round-bottomed pot made of metal, alloy, glass, or ceramic, and the pot body may be configured with a pot cover.

In these examples, the pot allows the sensing unit 107 such as the temperature detection unit and/or the anti-overflow detection unit provided on the pot to be transmitted to the controller of the heating apparatus through the signal transmission member 105 of the signal transmission module 100 by a wireless or wired transmission manner by installing the signal transmission module 100 on the outer sidewall 201 of the pot 200, so that the controller can precisely control the cooking condition of the food in response to the sensing signal of the sensing unit 107. When the cookware needs to be cleaned or is temporarily moved away from the heating equipment, the cookware can be very conveniently realized, so that the convenience of using the cookware is not influenced.

In other examples, a cooking kit is provided that includes a heating appliance having a controller and the above-described pot having a signal transmission 105 in communication with the controller of the heating appliance. In particular, the heating device may be an induction cooker, an electric ceramic cooker, a gas cooker or any other suitable heating device.

In these examples, the pot in the cooking kit is configured such that the sensing unit 107 such as the temperature detection unit and/or the anti-overflow detection unit provided on the pot can be wirelessly or wiredly transmitted to the controller of the heating apparatus through the signal transmission member 105 of the signal transmission module 100 by mounting the signal transmission module 100 on the outer sidewall 201 of the pot 200, so that the controller can precisely control the cooking condition of the food in response to the sensing signal of the sensing unit 107. When the cookware needs to be cleaned or is temporarily moved away from the heating equipment, the cookware can be very conveniently realized, so that the convenience of using the cookware is not influenced.
