In some embodiments, the bottom wall 201 of the barrel 20 is opened with a mounting hole, the second temperature sensor 22 includes a temperature measuring main body portion and a connecting portion, the temperature measuring main body portion is located inside the barrel 20 so as to enable the temperature measuring main body portion to obtain the temperature inside the barrel 20, and at least a portion of the connecting portion is disposed in the mounting hole. The second temperature sensor 22 is fixed to the bottom wall 201 of the tub 20 by a nut 211 located outside the tub 20 and engaged with the connection portion. A sealing member may be disposed between the temperature measuring main body and the bottom wall 201 of the barrel 20 to seal the mounting hole and prevent food in the barrel 20 from flowing out. Correspondingly, the heat transfer plate is provided with an avoiding hole corresponding to the mounting hole for mounting the second temperature sensor 22.

In some embodiments, the third temperature sensor 23 is disposed at the bottom wall 201 of the tub 20. The third temperature sensor 24 is fixed to the fixing frame 29 by a nut 210, and is further fixed to the outside of the bottom 201 of the tub 20 by the fixing frame.

The second temperature sensor 22 and the third temperature sensor 24 can each be electrically connected to the control circuit board 16. As shown in fig. 11, the main body assembly 1b is correspondingly provided with a lower coupler 15 capable of being matched with the upper coupler 213, and the lower coupler 15 is electrically connected to the control circuit board 16. When the food processing barrel 2b is disposed in the accommodating barrel 111, the second temperature sensor 22 and the third temperature sensor 24 are electrically connected to the control circuit board 16 through the upper coupler 213 and the lower coupler 15. Referring to fig. 10 and 11, in some embodiments, the control circuit board 16 is connected to the commercial power through the socket 161, and the current is transmitted to the heating element through the control circuit board 16, the lower coupler 15, the upper coupler 213, and the temperature controller 25. The temperature controller 25 detects the temperature at the bottom of the barrel 20, and when the temperature value is greater than the threshold value, the electric connection between the heating element and the upper coupler 213 is disconnected, and the upper coupler 213 and the lower coupler 15 can be used for realizing signal transmission and power supply between the temperature controller 25 and the control circuit board 16, and can also be replaced by other modes. Accordingly, the temperature controller 25 electrically disconnects the heat generating member from the upper coupler 213, which may be considered as electrically disconnecting the heat generating member from the control circuit board 16. In the above embodiment, since the heat generating member is disposed at the bottom of the tub 20, the heating efficiency is high for faster heating. In addition, the temperature controller 25 is installed at the bottom of the barrel 20, so that temperature measurement is accurate, and whether disconnection occurs is determined according to a measured temperature value and a threshold value, so that dry burning can be prevented.

In the above embodiment, the second temperature sensor 22 detects the temperature inside the tub 20 (i.e., inside the processing space 200), and can transmit the detected temperature value to the control circuit board 16 through the upper coupler 213 and the lower coupler 15 in sequence. The control circuit board 16 can determine whether to output current to the heat generating member according to the temperature value detected by the second temperature sensor 22. In case of outputting the current, the current is transmitted to the heat generating member through the lower coupler 15, the upper coupler 213 and the thermostat 25. The third temperature sensor 24 detects the temperature of the bottom of the tub 20, and the detected temperature value is transmitted to the control circuit board 16 through the upper coupler 213 and the lower coupler 15. The control circuit board 16 determines whether to output current to the heat generating member according to the temperature value measured by the third temperature sensor 24. In case of outputting the current, the current is transmitted to the heat generating member through the lower coupler 15, the upper coupler 213 and the thermostat 25. In the above embodiment of the present application, the second temperature sensor 22 measures temperature when the liquid is present in the barrel 20, and the temperature measurement is more accurate. The third temperature sensor 24 is mainly used for measuring the temperature of liquid-free food materials during operation such as cooking with a cooking barrel or dough kneading and fermenting, and therefore more food materials can be processed by the two temperature measuring elements, and the temperature is controlled more accurately, so that more delicious food can be obtained.

It should be noted that, during the operation of the food processor, the control circuit board 16 can select one of the first temperature sensor 363, the second temperature sensor 22 and the third temperature sensor 24 to obtain a temperature value according to the operation state of the food processor, such as the function selected by the user, the temperature values obtained by the first temperature sensor 363, the second temperature sensor 22 and the third temperature sensor 24, so as to control the heat generating component and other components of the food processor. For example, the cooking function selected by the user is to cook or the control circuit board detects that the cooking machine is currently in the working state of cooking, the temperature in the cooking barrel measured by the first temperature sensor and the second temperature sensor is lower, the temperature at the bottom of the barrel measured by the third temperature sensor 24 is higher, and the control circuit board 16 controls the cooking machine by taking the temperature value measured by the third temperature sensor 24 as a reference, such as adjusting the heating power of the heating element, and controlling the heating element to be turned off or to start working.

It should be noted that only one of the second temperature sensor 22 and the third temperature sensor 24 may be provided in the cooking bucket, or no temperature sensor may be provided. The application does not limit the method, and the method can be set according to specific conditions. For the embodiment that one of the second temperature sensor 22 and the third temperature sensor 24 can be disposed in the food processing barrel, the control circuit board can control the operation of the food processing machine according to the temperature values obtained by the first temperature sensor 363 and the control circuit board, and reference can be specifically made to the above description. To the implementation that does not set up temperature sensor in the cooking bucket, control circuit board can directly control the work of cooking machine according to the temperature value that first temperature sensor 363 obtained. Of course, in some other embodiments, the food processor may not be provided with the first temperature sensor, and one of the second temperature sensor and the third temperature sensor may be provided to obtain the corresponding temperature value.
