A cooking system for cooking food is provided, the system including a housing defining a hollow chamber configured to receive a food container. The housing has an upper portion defining an opening to the hollow chamber. A lid is configured to cover the upper portion of the housing and the opening to the hollow chamber in a closed position. The lid is moveable to an open position where the lid does not cover the opening to the hollow chamber. At least one heating element is associated with at least one of the housing and the lid. The cooking system is operable in a plurality of modes including a pressure cooking mode and a dry cooking mode. In the pressure cooking mode, the cooking system is operable as a pressure cooker and in the dry cooking mode, the cooking system is operable as a dry cooker.

The present application discloses an outdoor travel stove. The outdoor travel stove comprises a base having a first closable air hole, a side wall coupled to the base, wherein the side wall comprises a second closable air hole and an opening, and a top cover removably coupled to the side wall. When the base, the side wall and the top cover are assembled together and the first closable air hole, the second closable air hole and the opening are closed, the outdoor travel stove forms an airtight space.

A lifting mechanism is disclosed including: a base, on both sides of which a first vertical guide rail and a second vertical guide rail are provided respectively; a driving mechanism, including a first sliding block slidably mounted on the first guide rail, a motor assembly fixedly mounted on the first sliding block, a first rack arranged on the first guide rail, a first gear engaged with the first rack, a second sliding block slidably mounted on the second guide rail, a second rack arranged on the second guide rail, a second gear engaged with the second rack and a linkage shaft connected with the first and second gears and driven to rotate by the motor assembly; and a connecting mechanism connected with an external component and drivable by the driving mechanism to move up and down.

A heating cooker with a stirring function includes a stirring body configured to stir cooking materials that include liquid and a solid and are housed in a cooking container. The stirring body includes a housing rotatably mounted to a center of a bottom surface of the cooking container, and a lower blade that extends from an outer peripheral surface of the housing toward an inner peripheral surface of the cooking container and is configured to push at least one of the cooking materials that is positioned near the bottom surface of the cooking container toward the inner peripheral surface of the cooking container. The stirring body further includes an upper blade that extends from the outer peripheral surface of the housing toward the inner peripheral surface of the cooking container and is configured to cause at least one of the cooking materials that is near a liquid surface to sink toward the bottom surface of the cooking container.

A portable barbecue oven includes an oven body, a scissor-shaped frame movably attached to the oven body having a first bracket and a second bracket, and two guiding wheels; the top end of the first bracket is adjustable relative to the oven body through a folding mechanism, and the folding mechanism includes a connection member and an adjustment piece; the adjustment piece has a slot for the connection member to pass through, the connection member can slide inside the slot so as to achieve the unfolding or folding of the scissor-shaped frame. Furthermore, during operation, the frame is lifted up and down stably by the rolling of the guiding wheel and the connection member is positioned by the position locking hole, so that the barbecue oven can be effectively prevented from toppling over during the unfolding or folding process.

A method for targeted heating element control can include: sampling measurements, determining one or more occupied regions based on the measurements, determining one or more food types, controlling appliance operation based on the occupied regions and food types, optionally providing real-time feedback to the user for food placement within the cavity, optionally sampling training measurements, optionally determining a cavity occupancy region classifier, and/or any other suitable elements.

An apparatus for creating custom recipes is disclosed. The apparatus may comprise a body that may hold cartridges having flavouring agents and a cooking chamber connected to the cartridges via a plurality of valves. The apparatus may be controlled by a microcontroller. The apparatus may receive custom formulas for creating custom recipes from users. Upon receiving the formula, the apparatus may determine the quantities of flavouring agents that are to be added from each cartridges and the mode of cooking to create the custom recipe. The apparatus may constantly communicate with the client devices, so that user can monitor real time status of cooking, level of cartridges and so on.

Cooking apparatus comprises an oven. The oven comprises a cooking chamber, a heated air source and two or more vents through which, in use, heated air can vent from the cooking chamber. The two or more vents comprise at least one lower vent and at least one upper vent. The at least one lower vent is provided at a lower height than the at least one upper vent.
