DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

(11) In accordance with the drawings, the present invention is as described in detail as follows:

(12) FIGS. 1 to 3 illustrate the first embodiment of the present invention. A steam table (100) allowed a steamer (not illustrated), which could contain dumplings or rice cakes, to be placed on the table. The steam heats up the steamer to cook the dumplings or rice cakes.

(13) Said steam table (100) has a sealed boiler (10) capable of being filled with water therein and discharge steam; said boiler (10) included a hollow upper groove (1) thereabove and a hollow bottom groove (2) therebelow; the volume of the upper part of said upper groove (1) being larger than the lower part of said upper groove (1), the volume of the hollow bottom groove (2) protruded downwardly from said lower part of the upper groove (1), the upper part of said bottom groove (2) communicated with the lower part of the upper groove (1), so that water can flow freely inside the upper groove (1) and bottom groove (2); moreover, a concave heating space (3) for fire heating formed at the external bottom of said bottom groove (2). Said structure is the same with the original embodiment and the structure that is not detailed herein.

(14) In the present invention, referring to FIG. 3, the bottom groove (2) formed a rectangle-shaped water storage tank while looking upward, and the heating space (3) is surrounded by the bottom groove (2) into concave enclosed space; said heating space (3) is provided with a hollow convex groove (4) produced downwardly from the bottom part of said upper groove (1), said convex groove (4) arranged longitudinally and connected with the upper groove (1), and both ends of said convex groove (4) communicated with the upper and, lower sides of said bottom groove (2); the heating space (3) further included heated tubes (5) perpendicularly crossed with said convex groove (4) and communicated with each other; and both ends of the heated tube (5) communicated with the left and right sides of said bottom groove (2), so that water can flow freely inside the convex groove (4) and heated tubes (5).

(15) Two or more convex grooves (4) are equally spaced in parallel; two or more heated tube (5) are equally spaced in parallel and perpendicularly crossed with the convex grooves (4). In this way, the convex groove (4) and heated tube (5) inside the heating space (3) are aligned for even distribution of flame.

(16) Said boiler (10) is arranged inside a low cabinet (20), and the top opening of the upper groove (1) is closed by the top plate (21) of the low cabinet (20). Said low cabinet (20) engaged with an automatically filling tank 300 to form the steam table (100); the bottom part of said tank 300 communicated with the bottom groove (2) through a water filling pipe (301), said water filling pipe (301) communicated with the upper groove (1) through a pressure relief pipe 304, the upper part of said tank 300 communicated with the upper groove (1) through a vent pipe (302).

(17) The top plate (21) of said low cabinet (20) includes at least one steam pipe 6 with adjustment value 61 and a steam release regulator pipe (7). When the steamer (not illustrated) is placed in the steam pipe (6,) the exhaust steam can heat up the food inside the steamer by steam heating.

(18) For use, the gas burner (205) is placed below the bottom groove (2) at a distance to heat up the heating space (3). The heated tube (5) can be heated around the walls of the heating space (3), convex grooves (4), and heated tube (5) of the bottom groove (2) can be heated. With a large heated area, the water inside said boiler (10) can be rapidly boiled to generate steam. Compared to the conventional design, the present invention can shorten heating time and save fuel cost.

(19) FIGS. 4 to 5 illustrate the second embodiment of the present invention. A steam table (100) contained a boiler (10) that is a sealed boiler capable of being filled with water therein and discharge steam; said boiler (10) has the same structure as the first embodiment, the differences are: the bottom groove (2) protruded downwardly from left and right sides of the upper groove (1) to open the front and rear ends of the concave heating space (3) for forming an open space; said heating space (3) provided a plurality of heated tubes (5) disposed diagonally, whereat both ends of said heated tube (5) are respectively communicated with left and right sides of the bottom groove (2). As the front and rear ends of the heating space (3) are open, the air can flow freely, so that the flame is more exuberant. Furthermore, said heated tube (5) is disposed diagonally, thus, the length is longer than that of the horizontally set heated tubes. When a larger volume and heating area, the water can be boiled more rapidly.

(20) FIGS. 6 to 7 illustrate the third embodiment of the present invention. A steam table (100) contained a boiler (10); its differences with the second embodiment are: the heated tubes (5) are perpendicularly intersected for even heating.

(21) FIG. 8 illustrates the fourth embodiment of the present invention. A steam table (100) contained a boiler (10); its differences with the second embodiment are: the heated tubes (5) are divided into upper layers and lower layers. Accordingly, more heated tubes (5) can increase the heating volume and area so that water can be boiled more rapidly.

(22) FIGS. 9 to 10 illustrate a steam cabinet (200), comprising of a low cabinet (20) and a box body (201). Buns and dumplings can be placed inside the box body (201) for steaming. In the front of said box body (201), there is a door cover (202) that can open; on the outer wall of said box body (201), there is a forcing tight grip (203); at the edge of the door cover (202), there is a wedge (204). The forcing tight grip (203) and wedge (204) can tightly close the door cover (202) and box body (201) to prevent the leakage of steam inside box (201). Moreover, a control device (206) is placed thereabove to control the heating time and temperature. The box body (201) communicates with a steam discharge controlling pipe (207). Said box body (201) belongs to the conventional design and thus is not elaborated herein.

(23) Although the invention has been explained in relation to its preferred embodiment, it is to be understood that many other possible modifications and variations can be made without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention as hereinafter claimed.
