An electrical appliance for cooking food by two different methods is disclosed. Generally speaking, the appliance comprises a base and two interchangeable cooking lids. The base has an outer surface, an inner cooking chamber open at an upper end, a first heating source coupled to the cooking chamber, an electronic controller for controlling the heating source, and a user interface having a plurality of buttons for inputting cooking parameters to the electronic controller. The first interchangeable lid is securable to the base to cover the open end of the cooking chamber and is movable on the base from a closed and locked position to a closed and unlocked position. Similarly, the second interchangeable lid is positionable atop the base to cover the open end of the cooking chamber and includes a second heating source, an air circulating device and a power connector configured to receive power through a corresponding power connector positioned on the base.

An intelligent pressure solenoid valve includes a valve body, an air valve stem and a pressure cap, the valve body is provided with an electromagnetic component and an air vent, the air vent penetrates through the electromagnetic component, the air valve stem passes through the air vent, and the air valve stem, the electromagnetic component and the valve body are integrated through a molding process; both ends of the air valve stem penetrate through the upper end face and the lower end face of the valve body, respectively, the pressure cap is in snap-fit connection with the upper end of the air valve stem, and a permanent magnet is provided in the pressure cap.

Disclosed herein is a cooking system for cooking food, the system including a housing having a hollow interior, a lid movable relative to the housing, at least one heating element associated with one of the housing and the lid, wherein the cooking system is operable in a plurality of modes including a conductive cooking mode and a convective cooking mode, wherein in the conductive cooking mode the cooking system is operable as a conductive cooker and in the convective cooking mode the cooking system is operable as a convection cooker.

A lid body for a pressure cooker includes a pot lid, an inner lid mounted at an outer side of the pot lid, a top lid mounted at an outer side of the inner lid, and a solenoid exhaust valve. The pot lid includes a mounting cavity and a limiting rib protruding inward from a side wall of the mounting cavity. The solenoid exhaust valve includes a valve seat mounted in the mounting cavity and including a mounting hole, a valve core inserted in the mounting hole, and a valve cover matingly connected with a top of the valve core and being movable with respect to the valve core. A bottom end of the valve seat abuts against an upper end face of the limiting rib, and a lower end face of the limiting rib abuts against the pot lid or the inner lid.

A wireless power supply system for a cooking appliance includes a power transmission device and a power reception device. The power transmission device includes a transmission coil and a coil driving circuit coupled to the transmission coil and configured to drive the transmission coil to generate an alternating electromagnetic field and vary a resonance voltage of the transmission coil. The power reception device includes a reception coil matching the transmission coil and configured to sense the alternating electromagnetic field to generate a varying induction voltage signal that varies according to the varying resonance voltage and a communication and demodulation circuit configured to demodulate the varying induction voltage signal to output demodulated data.

A low-pressure vessel cover includes a plate-shaped base for placing on a vessel edge of a low-pressure vessel, a first opening in the base, and an acoustic signaling device for detecting a boiling point of a liquid which is heated in the low-pressure vessel. The signaling device includes a note-sounding plate system, which has a note-sounding plate, a note-sounding plate opening, and a note-sounding tongue. The note-sounding plate system is arranged in a first flow channel which extends from the first opening in the base to a first outlet opening such that the note-sounding tongue is excited by out-flowing fluid and generates a signaling tone of at least 40 dB.

The present disclosure provides a rice cooking device, which includes a base, a water storage assembly, a heating assembly, a steaming assembly, and a pressure regulating assembly. The water storage assembly includes a shell, a water storage container, and an energy gathering cover. The shell is disposed in the base, the water storage container is disposed in the shell, and the energy gathering cover is disposed in the water storage container. The energy gathering cover divides the water storage container into a first chamber positioned outside the energy gathering cover and a second chamber positioned inside the energy gathering cover. A water flow channel is formed between the first chamber and the second chamber. The heating assembly is disposed between the shell and the water storage container. The steaming assembly includes a steaming container and a steaming rack, wherein the steaming container is disposed in the water storage assembly, and a guide channel is formed between the steaming container and the energy gathering cover. The guide channel respectively communicates with the steaming container and the energy gathering cover. A steaming chamber is formed between the steaming rack and the steaming container. The pressure regulating assembly is disposed in the base and communicates with the water storage container. The pressure regulating assembly regulates the pressure in the first chamber to press water in the water storage container into the steaming container through the water flow channel or the guide channel or suck water in the steaming container back into the water storage container.

The present invention provides a combination pressure cooker and air fryer lid that may be attached to a vessel. The lid may be adjustable between two general cooking positions. In the first cooking position, the lid may operate with the vessel as a pressure cooker. In the second cooking position, the may operate with the vessel as an air fryer. In performing either of the pressure cooking or air fryer cooking functions, the lid need not be replaced.

A cooking appliance having a pan and a movable lid closing a cooking chamber in the pan has a locking element which is movable by motor and is either integrated in the pan or integrated in the lid. When the pan is in its closed state, the locking element, when in its locking position, protrudes either from the top side of the pan or the lower side of the lid and extends into the respective other part to mechanically lock it.
