As shown in fig. 1 and 4, the first positioning mechanism 320 includes a first rail 321 and a first slider 322, the first slider 322 is slidably disposed on the first rail 321, the first rail 321 is disposed on one side of the polygonal hinge structure and allows the first slider 322 to slide along a first direction, and the first slider 322 is fixed on the connecting member 315 or on the hinge axis of the third hinge edge 313 and the fourth hinge edge 314. The first positioning mechanism 320 has the above structure, and is simple in structure, convenient to install and matched with the polygonal hinge structure.

The lifting device 300 further comprises a limiting mechanism for limiting the lifting height of the lifting assembly 310. The limit mechanism is arranged to limit the lifting range of the polygonal hinge structure, so that the lifting device 300 is prevented from being too large or too small in lifting or lowering height.

In this embodiment, the limiting mechanism includes a micro switch and a trigger, the micro switch is disposed on the first guide rail 321, and the trigger is disposed on the first slider 322. The micro switch is connected with the driving mechanism 330 of the lifting device 300 in a control way, and when the first sliding block 322 slides to a set position, the trigger piece triggers the micro switch and controls the running state of the driving mechanism 330. The limiting mechanism adopts the structure, has simple structure and low cost, can limit the operation of the lifting component 310 and can also link other devices so as to meet other use requirements.

As shown in fig. 1 and 5-8, there are two microswitches, a first microswitch 323 and a second microswitch 325. The first micro switch 323 and the second micro switch 325 are respectively disposed at a first preset position and a second preset position in the length direction of the first guide rail 321, the first preset position is at a low position, and the second preset position is at a high position. The low position and the high position of the first slider 322 are limited by two micro switches, so as to limit the lifting range of the lifting device 300.

In this embodiment, there are two first positioning mechanisms 320, and the two first positioning mechanisms 320 are respectively disposed corresponding to the two polygonal hinge structures. The two first positioning mechanisms 320 are arranged and respectively correspond to the two polygonal hinge structures, so that a good positioning and guiding effect can be achieved.

Two microswitches may be provided on the same first guide rail 321, in which case only one triggering member is required. Two microswitches may also be arranged on two different first guide rails 321, and in this case, two triggering members are required, that is, the first microswitch 323 corresponds to the first triggering member 324, and the second microswitch 325 corresponds to the second triggering member 326, as shown in fig. 6.

The two ends of the first guide rail 321 are further provided with a limiting portion for limiting the first sliding block 322 to slide out of the first guide rail 321.

As shown in fig. 4, the upper end and the lower end of the first guide rail 321 are respectively provided with an upper limit portion 3213 and a lower limit portion 3214, and the limit portions are disposed at the two ends of the first guide rail 321, so that it is possible to avoid an accident that the driving mechanism 330 cannot be controlled to stop due to failure of the micro switch, and the lifting device 300 continues to lift.

In this embodiment, the first guide rail 321 and the first slider 322 are provided with corresponding flanging holes for mounting with other structures, so that the assembly is convenient. The upper end and the lower end of the first guide rail 321 are respectively provided with a vertically bent convex structure, namely an upper limit portion 3213 and a lower limit portion 3214, so that the pot support 400 cannot rise (fall) when rising to the highest point (or the lowest point), if two micro switches fail, the pot support 400 cannot continue to rise (or fall), and the problems that the lifting mechanism cannot stop moving immediately after the pot support 400 reaches the highest point if the micro switches fail, the pot support 400 continues to rise to cause the pot support 400 to prop against the glass cooker panel 100, the cooker panel 100 is broken due to excessive impact force, and the like are avoided, and the structural limit is more reliable.

In some embodiments, as shown in fig. 4, the first guide rail 321 is formed by an outer rail 3211 and a holder 3212, and balls are disposed in the first guide rail 321 and are mounted in the first guide rail 321 through the holder 3212. The rolling friction is generated between the first sliding block 322 and the first guide rail 321 by arranging the ball inside the first guide rail 321, so that the resistance of the first sliding block 322 during the lifting is reduced, and the stopping force of the pan support 400 during the lifting and the downward moving is small. The load force in the vertical direction that the first positioning mechanism 320 of the above structure can bear is relatively large, and the problem of blocking is not easy to occur.

The lifting assembly 310 further comprises a first hinge block 317 and a second hinge block 318, the first hinge edge 311 and the third hinge edge 313 are hinged by the first hinge block 317, and the second hinge edge 312 and the fourth hinge edge 314 are hinged by the second hinge block 318. The first hinge blocks 317 of the two polygonal hinge structures are connected by a first connecting plate 340, and the second hinge blocks 318 of the two polygonal hinge structures are connected by a second connecting plate 350. By respectively arranging the first hinge block 317 and the second hinge block 318 at the hinge position of the two hinge edges, the two polygonal hinge structures can be conveniently connected through the first connecting plate 340 and the second connecting plate 350, and the lifting of the polygonal hinge structures can not be influenced.

Wherein, a guide rod 319 is arranged between the first hinge block 317 and the second hinge block 318 of the same polygonal hinge structure, and the first hinge block 317 and the second hinge block 318 can slide along the guide rod 319.

In the present embodiment, the driving mechanism 330 includes a motor 331, a lead screw 332, and a nut 333. The motor 331 and the nut 333 are respectively fixed on the first connecting plate 340 and the second connecting plate 350, one end of the screw rod 332 is in transmission connection with the motor 331, the other end of the screw rod 332 penetrates through the nut 333, and the screw rod 332 rotates to enable the nut 333 to move towards a direction close to or far away from the first connecting plate 340. As shown in fig. 1, the first connecting plate 340 is provided with a motor support 336, the motor 331 is mounted in the middle of the first connecting plate 340 through the motor support 336, and the motor 331 is connected with the screw rod 332 through the coupling 335. The driving mechanism 330 with the above structure facilitates the simultaneous movement of the two sets of hinge edge structures of the polygonal hinge structure, which are opposite to each other, toward the middle part, so as to realize the lifting of the lifting device 300, and the motor 331 drives the two lifting assemblies 310 to synchronously move, thereby not only saving the cost, but also avoiding the bad results caused by the movement deviation of the two lifting assemblies 310.

The screw rod 332 used in this embodiment is a trapezoidal screw rod 332, that is, the external thread of the screw rod 332 is a trapezoidal structure. The external thread of the screw rod 332 is of a trapezoidal structure, so that the screw rod 332 and the nut 333 have an axial self-locking function, the lifting device 300 can be lifted to reach a designated position to realize structural self-locking, and compared with electric control self-locking, the automatic locking device is more reliable, cannot be influenced by external power fluctuation or power failure and the like, and is safe and reliable.

In some embodiments, the driving mechanism 330 further comprises a fixing block 334, the fixing block 334 is mounted on the first connecting plate 340, and the screw 332 passes through the fixing block 334 to be in transmission connection with the motor 331. The fixing block 334 provides support for the screw rod 332 at one end of the first connecting plate 340, so that transmission deformation generated by the transmission end is reduced. In some embodiments, the fixing block 334 further has a bearing therein, and the screw 332 is connected to the motor 331 through the bearing.

The lifting device 300 further includes a second guide rail 360, a second slider 370, and a second positioning mechanism. The first connecting plate 340 and the second connecting plate 350 respectively have a second slider 370 disposed oppositely, and the second guide rail 360 is slidably engaged with the two second sliders 370. In this embodiment, there are two second guide rails 360, and the two second guide rails 360 are arranged in parallel. The second positioning mechanism is used to move the second rail 360 in only the first direction. The second mounting location is disposed on the second rail 360. The second mounting position is a burner support 600 fixed to the second rail 360, and the burner 500 is mounted on the burner support 600.

Through the cooperation of the second guide rail 360, the second slider 370 and the second positioning mechanism, the object on the second installation position on the lifting device 300 can only move along the first direction, so that the object on the first installation position and the object on the second installation position only generate the relative position change in the first direction (i.e. the vertical direction), and the relative position change in other directions does not occur.

As shown in fig. 2, the second positioning mechanism includes a limiting member 390 and a guiding member 380, the guiding member 380 is fixed on the base 700 of the lifting device 300, the limiting member 390 is fixed in the middle of the second guiding rail 360, and the limiting member 390 can slide relative to the guiding member 380. The limiting member 390 is provided with a sliding chute 391, the limiting member 390 is provided with a guiding shaft 381, and the sliding chute 391 is in sliding fit with the guiding shaft 381. The second positioning mechanism adopts the structure, and is simple in structure and convenient to install. When the first connecting plate 340 and the second connecting plate 350 move relatively, the second slider 370 thereon moves along the second rail 360, and the second rail 360 is restricted by the second limiting mechanism to move only in the vertical direction.

The burner brackets 600 are installed on the two second guide rails 360, and the stoppers 390 are fixedly connected with the burner brackets 600. When the burner 500 ascends or descends, the chute 391 on the limit piece 390 is restricted by the guide shaft 381 on the guide piece 380, so that the burner 500 can only move in the vertical direction without moving in the horizontal direction, the concentricity of the burner 500 and the corresponding second through hole 102 on the stove panel 100 is ensured, and the risk of jamming caused by eccentricity of the burner 500 during movement can be avoided.

In this embodiment, the first mounting location is provided on the connection 315. The pan support 400 is fixed to the connection member 315.

In some embodiments, the first mounting location may also be located on the third hinged edge 313 and/or the fourth hinged edge 314. The second mounting location is provided on the first hinge edge 311 and/or the second hinge edge 312. Alternatively, in some embodiments, the first mounting location may be disposed on the second rail 360. In the above-mentioned embodiment, a combination structure of the second guide rail 360, the second slider 370 and the second positioning mechanism or the like is required to ensure that the objects on the first mounting position and the second mounting position move in the vertical direction.

The operation of the gas cooker of the present invention using the above-mentioned lifting device 300 will be described below to facilitate a clearer understanding of the technical solution of the present invention.

When a user presses a start key, the cooker control panel receives a signal and transmits the signal to the motor 331, the motor 331 starts to rotate, the motor 331 drives the screw rod 332 to rotate, and the nut 333 moves on the screw rod 332 towards the direction close to the fixed block 334. The nut 333 and the fixing block 334 are fixed on the second connecting plate 350 and the first connecting plate 340, respectively, and the first connecting plate 340 and the second connecting plate 350 are mounted on the first hinge block 317 and the second hinge block 318, which are symmetrical, of the polygonal hinge structure, so that when the nut 333 moves on the screw 332 in a direction approaching the fixing block 334, the first connecting plate 340 and the second connecting plate 350 are pulled to move upward and toward each other, thereby achieving a synchronous upward movement of the pot support 400 and the burner 500. When the pot support 400 rises to a certain height and the second trigger 326 touches the second microswitch 325, the second microswitch 325 gives a signal to the cooker control panel to inform the motor 331 of stopping rotating (the pot support 400 and the burner 500 are locked at the position), and simultaneously informs the gas electric control valve to open the gas valve and the igniter to start ignition. That is, the gas valve is opened and ignition is started after the elevating device 300 moves to the target position, so that safety can be ensured.

When a user finishes cooking and presses a machine closing key, the gas electric control valve controls the closing and fire closing of a gas valve, meanwhile, the motor 331 rotates reversely to drive the screw rod 332 to rotate, the nut 333 moves on the screw rod 332 towards the direction far away from the fixed block 334, the first connecting plate 340 and the second connecting plate 350 move back to the back to drive the polygonal hinge structure to move downwards in the vertical direction, when the first trigger piece 324 touches the first micro switch 323, the first micro switch 323 transmits a signal for stopping the rotation of the motor 331 to enable the motor 331 to return to the initial position, at the moment, the burner 500 and the pot support 400 are embedded in the cooker panel 100.

In this embodiment, the burner 500 and the pan support 400 are lifted and lowered by the same driving mechanism 330 (the motor 331, the screw rod 332 and the nut 333) simultaneously, the motor 331 rotates to drive the screw rod 332 to rotate, the screw rod 332 only axially rotates relative to the motor 331 without axial displacement, and the screw rod 332 rotates to drive the nut 333 to simultaneously circumferentially rotate and axially move on the screw rod 332, so as to drive the opening angle of the polygonal hinge structure to be increased (lifted) or decreased (lowered). Because the burner 500 and the pan support 400 are driven by the same set of driving mechanism 330 at the same time, the burner 500 and the pan support 400 can ascend or descend synchronously, and the accuracy of synchronization when the pan support 400 and the burner 500 reach the target position is improved.

In this embodiment, the first sliding block 322 is fixed to the pan support 400 by screws, and the first positioning mechanism 320 is used for vertically guiding the entire lifting device 300 in the process of ascending and descending the pan support 400, so that the pan support 400 and the burner 500 have good concentricity with respect to the first through hole 101 and the second through hole 102 on the cooker panel 100, and the lifting device 300 is not jammed and cannot normally work due to the misalignment between the first through hole 101 and the second through hole 102 on the cooker panel 100 caused by the position deviation of the pan support 400 and the burner 500 after reciprocating motion.

When the components of the lifting device 300 are normal, the two micro switches limit the highest position or the lowest position of the target, and after the target position is reached, the trapezoidal screw 332 is self-locked to lock the pot support 400 at the target position. If the micro switch fails, the lifting device 300 will exceed the designed movement stroke, and is limited by the upper limit portion 3213 and the lower limit portion 3214 on the first guide rail 321, so as to prevent the lifting device 300 from damaging parts due to over-stroke.

Fig. 11 is a schematic view of the operation of the lifting device 300 of the present invention. The burner 500 is installed at the 1/2 height position of the polygonal hinge structure and the mounting of the pan support 400 at the uppermost face of the polygonal hinge structure, thereby achieving proportional ascending and descending of the pan support 400 and the burner 500 in the vertical direction. In this embodiment, as shown in fig. 11, the ratio of the ascending and descending rates of the pot support 400 and the burner 500 is 2, which is adjustable according to the installation position and will not be described in detail.

According to the working principle of the lifting device 300, horizontal displacement is converted into vertical displacement, the structure is reliable, the gravity center is stable, and the lever principle is utilized, so that a large load can be driven to ascend and descend only by a small motor 331 driving force. In fig. 11, the solid line indicates that the elevator 300 is at the lowest position (initial position), and the dotted line indicates that the elevator 300 is at the highest position.
