A transfer mechanism for transferring food product from a compartment of a food processing system includes a conduit having a first end portion configured to be in communication with the compartment and a second end portion, a fluid discharge positioned substantially within the conduit between the first end portion and the second end portion, and a pressurized fluid source in communication with the fluid discharge. The pressurized fluid source is operable to propel a fluid through the fluid discharge to move the food product from the first end portion of the conduit toward the second end portion.

A heating appliance includes a translucent cooktop and a burner in communication with the cooktop. The burner is operable between deactive and active states. The upper surface of the cooktop defines a cooldown state after the burner is moved from the active to the deactive state. A light module includes a light source and is in an illuminated state when the burner is in the active state and when the cooktop is in the cooldown state. A light guide extends from the light module and around a portion of the burner. The light guide is positioned such that the light source directs light through the light guide. The outer surface of the light guide includes a formed surface that directs light upward and through the cooktop, wherein the light guide is visible through the cooktop when the light module is in the illuminated state.

A horizontal shaking type automatic cooker includes five parts: a shaking platform, a heating device, a cooking pan, a motor, and an electronic control unit. The shaking platform includes two parts: a fixed base and a shaking flat plate. The fixed base and the shaking flat plate are connected through four eccentric gears that have a same diameter and are in rectangular arrangement. When the four eccentric gears synchronously rotate under the drive of the motor, the shaking flat plate and the cooking pan start to shake horizontally and circumferentially in a non-rotating manner, and a dish in the pan is turned and mixed under the action of inertia and impact force at a pan edge, so as to achieve a stirring effect. When the automatic cooker works during cover opening, water evaporates rapidly, there is much contact with oxygen gas, and a stir-frying effect is desirable.

The present disclosure provides a transfer cavity, a material supplying system and a cooking appliance. The transfer cavity has an inner cavity, and is provided with a material inlet, a material outlet and a fluid inlet, and the inner cavity communicates with the material inlet, the material outlet and the fluid inlet, wherein the fluid inlet is arranged on a bottom wall of the transfer cavity or a position on a side wall of the transfer cavity that is relatively close to the bottom wall of the transfer cavity. According to the transfer cavity provided by the solution, the air may approximately enter the transfer cavity from the bottom of the transfer cavity, thereby being conducive to lifting and dispersing a material by wind power, and avoiding the problem that it is difficult to drive and discharge the material due to the accumulation of the material in the transfer cavity. Therefore, complete discharge and no residue in the transfer cavity may be ensured, and the hygienic security of the product may be improved.
