The side wall of the transparent plate 61 is provided with a protrusion 62, and the protrusion 62 is clamped in the clamping groove 11, so that the light transmission part of the transparent plate 61 forms the second light transmission part 6 on the front panel 1.

During assembly, the light-transmitting plate 61 can be firstly clamped with one of the pressing strips 12, and then the other pressing strip 12 is clamped with the light-transmitting plate 61, so that the whole front panel 1 is assembled. Of course, the shape of the light hole can be regular such as rectangle, ellipse and rhombus, and can also be irregular geometric figure. The different shapes of the light holes can be realized only by changing the shapes of the opposite surfaces of the two pressing strips 12, and meanwhile, the shapes of the light transmission plates 61 are required to be properly adjusted to match the light holes. The fixing connection mode of the two pressing strips 12 can be welding, strong adhesive bonding or screw connection and the like.

The light-transmitting plate 61 can be made of a semi-permeable or a completely permeable material, such as an artificial stone light-transmitting plate, acrylic or organic glass. The opaque trim 12 and the rear case 2 may be made of aluminum alloy, stainless steel, or opaque plastic.

Similarly, if the second light transmission portion 6 is disposed on the rear housing 2, the similar structure described above may also be adopted, and details are not described here. When the rear case 2 is provided with the second light transmission part 6, the light transmitted from the handle can be irradiated to the door. If the box door is transparent, the inside of the steam box can be illuminated by the light rays transmitted out by the rear shell 2, so that the state of food can be checked conveniently. And reflective patterns and the like can be designed on the box door, so that a relatively attractive visual effect is realized when light is irradiated.

Preferably, the inner wall of the light-transmitting portion (the first light-transmitting portion 3 and/or the second light-transmitting portion 6) is provided with a colored coating. For example, colored resin paint can be uniformly coated on the inner wall of the light transmission part, and the color of the resin paint can be adjusted according to needs. The resin paint is coated on the inner wall of the light transmission part in a liquid state, and is fixedly attached to the inner wall of the light transmission part 3 after being solidified, so that the resin paint is heat-resistant and ageing-resistant, and has little influence on the light transmission rate of the original light transmission part due to high light transmission rate. Illustratively, the colored coating layer is a sol-gel coating solution or the like.

The light-transmitting part is provided with the colored coating, so that the light-transmitting part can transmit light with different colors, and the attractiveness is further improved.

As shown in fig. 5, the light emitting part 5 disposed in front of the mounting board 7 is a plurality of LED chips. The LED chips include a red LED chip 51, a green LED chip 52, and a blue LED chip 53. The colored lighting effect can be realized by lighting the LED chips 5 with different light colors.

All the LED chips are arranged on the mounting plate 7 in two rows in a staggered manner. The LED chips with different light colors in each row are sequentially arranged in the same order, that is, the red LED chip 51, the green LED chip 52 and the blue LED chip 53 in the upper row are arranged in the same order as the red LED chip 51, the green LED chip 52 and the blue LED chip 53 in the lower row. However, the first LED chip in the lower row has a different light color from the first LED chip in the upper row. And, the distance between any two adjacent LED chips in the same row is equal. The three-color LED chips can realize the color illumination effect of uniform mixing according to the arrangement mode.

Illustratively, the upper row of LED chips are arranged in a sequence from left to right, namely, the red LED chip 51, the green LED chip 52 and the blue LED chip 53 are arranged in a cycle in sequence. In the next row of LED chips, although the first LED chip is the green LED chip 52, in practice, the next row of LED chips are still circularly arranged according to the red LED chip 51, the green LED chip 52 and the blue LED chip 53 in sequence. And the first LED chip in the lower row and the first LED chip in the upper row are staggered up and down.

Preferably, on the basis of the above-described embodiment, each LED chip is distributed in an equilateral triangle with two adjacent LED chips located in the other row, except for two LED chips located at the leftmost end and the rightmost end on the mounting board 7. Taking the arrangement of the LED chips in fig. 5 as an example, the first LED chip in the upper row is a red LED chip 51, the linear distances between the first LED chip and the green LED chip 52 and the blue LED chip 53 adjacent to the lower row are a and b, respectively, and the linear distance between the green LED chip 52 and the blue LED chip 53 in the lower row is c, then a-b-c. The LED chips with different adjacent light colors are distributed in an equilateral triangle, so that the light mixing effect of the three-color LED chips is further optimized, and the color light transmitted by the handle is more uniform in color.

It should be noted that the LED chips with different light colors are shown in different shapes in the drawings, which is only for clarity and better distinguishing the LED chips with different light colors, and does not represent the specific shape of the actual LED chip.
