DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0049] Embodiments of the present application are described below in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar numerals represent the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below by reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are for the purpose of explaining the present application only, and should not be understood as limiting the present application.

[0051] In the description of the present application, the plural refers to two or more. If there is a description of the first, second, it is only for the purpose of distinguishing technical features, and cannot be understood as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly indicating the number of technical features indicated or the sequence of technical features indicated.

[0052] In the description of the present application, unless otherwise explicitly limited, the words such as arrangement, installation, connection, etc. should be broadly understood, and those skilled in the art can reasonably determine the specific meaning of the above words in the present application in combination with the specific content of the technical solution.

[0053] Under the trend of home appliance integration, there are currently steam ovens integrated with air-frying functions on the market, but steam ovens usually have a large cavity volume considering the diversity of cooking food volume, and air-frying functions usually require high hot air heat transfer efficiency to quickly cook food, so when cooking food by air-frying function in a large cavity, the problem of insufficient heat transfer efficiency of hot air is caused, resulting in poor cooking effect of air-frying function.

[0054] To solve the above problem, with reference to Figure 1 and Figure 2The first aspect of the present application provides an air-frying assembly 100, comprising a partition 110 and a food material carrier 120, referring to Figure 3 The air-frying assembly 100 is used to be installed in the cavity 210 of the steam oven 10, one inner wall of the cavity 210 is provided with the hot air assembly 300, referring to Figure 4 and Figure 5 When the air-frying function of the steam oven 10 is used, the partition 110 is covered at the air outlet end of the hot air assembly 300, so that the partition 110 and the inner wall of the cavity 210 define a cooking space 111, and the food material carrier 120 is accommodated in the cooking space 111. The volume of the cooking space 111 is smaller than the volume of the cavity 210. The hot air assembly 300 can only drive the air in the cooking space 111 to flow and only heat the air in the cooking space 111. This can improve the heating efficiency of the hot air assembly 300 on the air and the circulation efficiency of the air, thereby improving the heat transfer efficiency of the hot air and the cooking effect, and meeting the demand of the air-frying function.

[0055] The shape of the partition 110 can be set according to actual needs, which can define a cooking space 111 with a smaller volume in the cavity 210. Referring to Figure 2 The partition 110 can be a shell with one end open, referring to Figure 4 and Figure 5 The opening of the partition 110 faces the air outlet end of the hot air assembly 300, the food material carrier 120 is accommodated in the partition 110, and the shell-shaped partition 110 and the inner wall where the hot air assembly 300 is installed can define a cooking space 111. Moreover, for the steam oven 10 as shown in Figures 3 to 5 The hot air assembly 300 is arranged at the side of the cavity 210. When installed, the food material carrier 120 can be placed in the partition 110 first, and then the partition 110 and the food material carrier 120 are installed in the cavity 210 together, which is convenient to install.

[0056] It can be understood that the partition 110 can also be plate-shaped, the circumferential surface of the partition 110 is in contact with the inner wall of the cavity 210. Specifically, a limiting groove 211 can be arranged on the inner wall of the cavity 210, and the edge of the partition 110 is embedded in the limiting groove 211 to limit the partition 110, thereby separating a cooking space 111 with a smaller volume in the cavity 210. It should be noted that for the steam oven 10 as shown in Figures 3 to 5 The hot air assembly 300 is arranged at the side of the cavity 210. In order to reduce the installation difficulty and improve the installation convenience, the partition 110 and the food material carrier 120 can be fixedly connected or detachably connected, so that the partition 110 and the food material carrier 120 can be installed in the cavity 210 as a whole after being installed outside the cavity 210.

[0057] When the air-frying function is used, the hot air should be blown to all parts of the outer surface of the food as much as possible to improve the uniformity of heating the food. Based on this, referring to Figure 1 and Figure 2 all the walls of the food carrying member 120 have the ventilation holes 121, referring to Figure 5 the hot air generated by the hot air assembly 300 can pass through the walls of the food carrying member 120 and blow through the food in the food carrying member 120 to improve the uniformity of heating the food.

[0058] It can be understood that the specific structure of the food carrying member 120 is not limited to the basket shape enclosed by a plurality of plates with ventilation holes 121 as shown in Figure 2 It can also be configured as a single-layer grid tray, a multi-layer grid tray, etc., which can expose the outer surface of the food to the hot air as much as possible.

[0059] In addition, if the food carrying member 120 is directly placed on the inner wall of the partition 110, the inner wall of the partition 110 directly contacts the bottom of the food carrying member 120, which will block the air passage at the bottom of the food. Based on this, referring to Figure 2 the air-frying assembly 100 further comprises a support 130 connected to the inner wall of the partition 110, the food carrying member 120 is placed on the support 130, and there is a gap between the bottom of the food carrying member 120 and the inner wall of the partition 110. The food carrying member 120 is placed in the air-frying assembly 100, which can avoid the direct contact between the bottom of the food carrying member 120 and the inner wall of the partition 110 to block the air passage, so that the hot air generated by the hot air assembly 300 can pass through the bottom of the food carrying member 120 and heat the bottom of the food, improving the uniformity of heating the food.

[0060] During the installation of the air-frying assembly 100 into the cavity 210, the partition 110 can be inclined, causing the food carrying member 120 placed on the partition 110 to slide or even fall off. To solve this problem, referring to Figure 2 the support 130 comprises a supporting portion 131 and a limiting portion 132 connected to each other, the limiting portion 132 is connected to the end of the supporting portion 131 and is bent relative to the supporting portion 131, and the food carrying member 120 is placed on the supporting portion 131. When the partition 110 is inclined, the food carrying member 120 can abut against the limiting portion 132, thereby avoiding the food carrying member 120 from falling off the partition 110.

[0061] To facilitate the connection of the support 130 and the partition 110, referring to Figure 2The support 130 further comprises a connecting portion 133 connected to the side portion of the supporting portion 131 and bent relative to the supporting portion 131, specifically, the connecting portion 133 can be arranged perpendicular to the supporting portion 131, and the connecting portion 133 is attached to the inner wall of the side portion of the partition 110 and connected to the partition 110. The connecting portion 133 can provide a connecting position for the connection between the support 130 and the partition 110, so as to facilitate the connection of the support 130 to the partition 110. The connection mode of the support 130 and the partition 110 is not limited and can be arranged according to actual needs, for example, a through hole can be formed on the wall surface of the connecting portion 133 and the partition 110 and the two are connected by bolts, or glue is applied on the connecting portion 133 and the partition 110 to bond the two, or a clamping structure that cooperates with each other is arranged on the connecting portion 133 and the partition 110.

[0062] It can be understood that the support 130 can be formed by sheet metal processing, and the limiting portion 132 bent relative to the supporting portion 131 and the connecting portion 133 bent relative to the supporting portion 131 are both formed by bending of a metal sheet. The bending direction of the limiting portion 132 relative to the supporting portion 131 can be the same as or opposite to the bending direction of the connecting portion 133 relative to the supporting portion 131, referring to Figure 2 The bending direction of the limiting portion 132 relative to the supporting portion 131 is opposite to the bending direction of the connecting portion 133 relative to the supporting portion 131, the limiting portion 132 is bent upward relative to the supporting portion 131, and the connecting portion 133 is bent downward relative to the supporting portion 131. When the food material carrier 120 is placed above the supporting portion 131, the connecting portion 133 will not affect the placement of the food material carrier 120, and the installation process is relatively smooth.

[0063] During the cooking process using the air frying function, the food material can generate juice, which will flow out of the food material carrier 120 and fall into the partition 110. The shape of the partition 110 is not convenient for cleaning, and when there is a large amount of juice, it is also possible to flow from the partition 110 to the inner wall of the cavity 210, which is more difficult to clean. To solve this problem, referring to Figure 2 The air frying assembly 100 further comprises a liquid containing disc 140, referring to Figure 1 The liquid containing disc 140 is placed in the gap between the bottom of the food material carrier 120 and the partition 110. During cooking, the juice generated by the food material will flow into the liquid containing disc 140. The disc-shaped liquid containing disc 140 can contain a certain amount of juice, thereby avoiding the juice from flowing to the inner wall of the cavity 120; after cooking, the liquid containing disc 140 can be taken out of the partition 110 for cleaning. The disc-shaped liquid containing disc 140 is relatively convenient to clean, which can reduce the cleaning difficulty.

[0064] Understandably, the liquid tray 140 should cover the entire bottom of the food carrier 120 to ensure that all the juice flowing out of the food carrier 120 can flow into the liquid tray 140, and more reliably avoid the juice from contaminating the separator 110.

[0065] For example Figures 3 to 5 The hot air assembly 300 shown is located on the side of the cavity 210 in the steam oven 10. During the installation and removal of the air fryer assembly 100 from the cavity 210, force needs to be applied to the side of the cavity 210 to allow the partition 110 to cover the air outlet of the hot air assembly 300. However, the outer wall of the partition 110 is relatively smooth, making it difficult to apply force. Therefore, referring to... Figure 2 and Figure 4 A handle 150 is provided on the outer wall of the partition 110. The handle 150 is located on the wall surface of the partition 110 opposite to the open end, as shown in the figure. Figure 8 The handle 150 can also be set on the wall surface of the side of the partition 110. When installing and removing the partition 110, force can be applied through the handle 150 to reduce the difficulty of installation and removal.

[0066] Reference Figures 3 to 5 The steam oven 10 of the second aspect of the present invention includes a housing 200, a hot air assembly 300, and an air fryer assembly 100 provided in the first aspect of the present invention. The housing 200 has a cavity 210; the hot air assembly 300 is installed on the inner wall of the cavity 210; when using the air frying function of the steam oven 10, the air fryer assembly 100 is installed inside the cavity 210, and a partition 110 is placed over the air outlet of the hot air assembly 300, so that the partition 110 and the inner wall of the cavity 210 define a cooking space 111, and the food carrier 120 is housed in the cooking space 111. The volume of the cooking space 111 is smaller than that of the cavity 210. The hot air component 300 can only drive the air flow in the cooking space 111 and only heat the air in the cooking space 111. This can improve the heating efficiency of the hot air component 300 and the air circulation efficiency, thereby improving the heat transfer efficiency of the hot air, enhancing the cooking effect, and meeting the needs of the air frying function. When using the steam oven 10's steam and bake function, the air frying component 100 can be removed from the cavity 210. The steam oven 10's air frying and steam and bake functions both have good cooking effects.

[0067] The detachable connection method between the partition 110 and the inner wall of the cavity 210 is not limited, refer to... Figure 3 and Figure 5 The steam oven 10 may include a flexible clip 400, see reference. Figure 6 The elastic locking member 400 includes a deformable part 410 and a supporting part 420, as shown in the figure. Figure 7, one end of the deformation portion 410 is connected to the layer shelf 500 connected to the inner wall of the cavity 210, and the other end is connected to the abutting portion 420, the partition 110 is an open-ended shell, and the inside of the open end of the partition 110 has a clamping surface 112. When the partition 110 is installed inside the cavity 210, the partition 110 can be pushed towards the layer shelf 500, causing the deformation portion 410 to deform towards the inside of the partition 110 until the abutting portion 420 reaches the position of the clamping surface 112. The deformation portion 410 rebounds, causing the abutting side 421 to abut against the clamping surface 112, completing the installation of the partition 110.

[0068] The formation of the clamping surface 112 of the partition 110 is not limited, and the clamping surface 112 of the partition 110 is not limited. Figure 6 The open end of the partition 110 can be provided with an inwardly bent flange, and the end of the flange forms the clamping surface 112. The elastic clamping piece 400 extends into the inside of the partition 110, and the abutting portion 420 abuts against the clamping surface 112. The open end of the partition 110 can also be provided with an outwardly bent flange, and the end of the flange forms the clamping surface 112. The elastic clamping piece 400 is outside the partition 110, and the abutting portion 420 abuts against the clamping surface 112. A boss can also be provided inside or outside the open end of the partition 110, and the boss forms the clamping surface 112 away from the side of the open end of the partition 110. Other forms can also be provided as long as the abutting portion 420 of the elastic clamping piece 400 can abut against the clamping surface 112.

[0069] When disassembling the partition 110, the abutting portion 420 needs to be disengaged from the clamping surface 112. To make the disassembly process more labor-saving, with reference to Figure 6 The deformation portion 410 can be provided with a guide surface 411, which is inclined towards the abutting side 421 in the direction from the end of the deformation portion 410 away from the abutting portion 420 to the end close to the abutting portion 420. Thus, the guide surface 411 and the abutting side 421 can form a relatively smooth transition. When disassembling the partition 110, pulling the partition 110 away from the layer shelf 500 can disengage the abutting side 421 from the clamping surface 112, thereby smoothly removing the partition 110.

[0070] When installing the partition 110, the abutting portion 420 needs to smoothly reach the position of the clamping surface 112. To make the installation process more labor-saving, with reference to Figure 6The elastic clamping piece 400 further comprises a guide-in portion 430 connected to one end of the abutting portion 420 away from the deformed portion 410. The guide-in portion 430 has a guide-in surface 431. In the direction from the end of the guide-in portion 430 away from the abutting portion 420 to the end of the guide-in portion 430 close to the abutting portion 420, the guide-in surface 431 is inclined towards the abutting side 421. Thus, a relatively smooth transition can be formed between the guide-in surface 431 and the abutting side 421. When the partition piece 110 is installed, the partition piece 110 is pushed towards the direction of the shelf 500, so that the abutting side 421 reaches the position of the clamping surface 112 and is clamped with the clamping surface 112 under the resilience of the deformed portion 410, thereby smoothly installing the partition piece 110.

[0071] With reference to Figure 7 The shelf 500 is provided with four elastic clamping pieces 400 symmetrically arranged on both sides of the shelf 500. The four elastic clamping pieces 400 are clamped with the opposite two sides of the partition piece 110, thereby improving the stability of the installation of the partition piece 110. The number and arrangement position of the elastic clamping pieces 400 are not limited to the scheme shown in Figure 7

[0072] The elastic clamping piece 400 can be formed by sheet metal processing, which is relatively simple to process and can reduce production costs. The elastic clamping piece 400 made of metal has a longer service life and is not easy to be damaged. In addition, the elastic clamping piece 400 made of metal is also convenient to be welded with the shelf 500, and has a relatively high connection strength. In addition to being installed on the shelf 500, the elastic clamping piece 400 can also be installed on the inner wall of the cavity 210. In addition to being installed on the inner wall of the cavity 210 by welding, the elastic clamping piece 400 can also be installed by screwing, gluing or other methods, which can be set according to actual needs.

[0073] The detachable connection between the partition piece 110 and the inner wall of the cavity 210 can also be replaced by other schemes. With reference to Figure 9 and Figure 10 The steaming and baking oven 10 can comprise a mounting piece 600 having a mounting groove 610. The mounting piece 600 is connected to the inner wall of the cavity 210. Specifically, with reference to Figure 10 ​The mounting piece 600 can be formed by bending the edge of the opening of the inner wall of the cavity 210 to improve the integrity of the mounting piece 600 and the inner wall of the cavity 210, and prevent the mounting piece 600 from falling off the inner wall of the cavity 210 after a period of use. The mounting portion 115 of the open end of the partition 110 can be formed by bending the edge of the opening of the partition 110 to improve the integrity of the mounting portion 115 and the partition 110, and prevent the mounting portion 115 from falling off the partition 110 after a period of use. When the partition 110 is installed inside the cavity 210, the partition 110 is pushed into the cavity 210, and the mounting portion 115 is embedded in the mounting groove 610, and the installation of the partition 110 is completed.

[0074] It can be understood that the direction of the mounting groove 610 should extend along the direction in which the partition 110 is pushed into the cavity 210. The mounting portion 115 can be provided with two mounting portions symmetrically arranged above and below the opening of the partition 110, and the mounting piece 600 is provided with two mounting pieces, the positions of the two mounting pieces 600 correspond to the positions of the two mounting portions 115, and after the two mounting pieces 600 are matched with the two mounting portions 115, the partition 110 can be supported above and below the partition 110, and the stability is high.

[0075] Referring to Figure 11 and Figure 12 , the third aspect of the present application further provides another air-frying assembly 100, which comprises a partition 110 and a food material carrier 120, referring to Figure 13 , the air-frying assembly 100 provided by the third aspect of the present application is suitable for a steam oven 10 in which a hot air assembly 300 is installed on the top inner wall of a cavity 210, referring to Figure 14 , when the air-frying function of the steam oven 10 is used, the partition 110 can be detachably installed on the inner wall of the cavity 210, the partition 110 and the inner wall of the cavity 210 define a cooking space 111, the cooking space 111 accommodates the hot air assembly 300, the food material carrier 120 is accommodated in the cooking space 111, the volume of the cooking space 111 is smaller than the volume of the cavity 210, the hot air assembly 300 can only drive the air in the cooking space 111 to flow and only heat the air in the cooking space 111, which can improve the heating efficiency of the hot air assembly 300 on the air and the circulation efficiency of the air, thereby improving the heat transfer efficiency of the hot air, and meeting the demand of the air-frying function; the bottom of the food material carrier 120 is provided with a ventilation hole 121, the outer surface of the food material carrier 120, the inner wall of the cavity 210 and the partition 110 define a hot air duct 113, referring to Figure 14In the direction indicated by the arrow, the hot air generated by the hot air assembly 300 can flow to the air vent 121 along the hot air duct 113 and blow upward from the air vent 121, so as to heat the lower part of the food, and the upper part of the food can be heated under the thermal radiation of the heat pipe of the hot air assembly 300, thereby improving the uniformity of heating of the upper and lower parts of the food and improving the cooking effect.

[0076] The shape of the partition 110 can be set according to actual needs, and the partition 110 can define a cooking space 111 with a smaller volume in the cavity 210, and can define the hot air duct 113 with the inner wall of the cavity 210 and the outer surface of the food carrier 120. Refer to Figure 11 、 Figure 12 and Figure 14 The partition 110 is disc-shaped, the food carrier 120 is placed on the partition 110, and the partition 110 is circumferentially detachably connected to the inner wall of the cavity 210, thereby defining a cooking space 111 with a smaller volume in the cavity 210, and the top inner wall and the side inner wall of the cavity 210, the upper surface of the partition 110, and the outer surface of the food carrier 120 define the hot air duct 113.

[0077] The disc-shaped partition 110, on the one hand, for the top inner wall of the steam oven 10 provided with the hot air assembly 300, when installing the air frying assembly 100, the food carrier 120 can be placed on the partition 110, and then the partition 110 and the food carrier 120 are placed in the cavity 210, and the partition 110 is disc-shaped, which can provide a placement position for the food carrier 120 and save materials; on the other hand, during the cooking process using the air frying function, the food may produce juice, which will flow out of the food carrier 120 and fall into the partition 110, and when there is too much juice, it may also flow from the partition 110 to the inner wall of the cavity 120, making cleaning more difficult. The disc-shaped partition 110 can also function to collect the juice flowing out of the food carrier 120. During cooking, the juice produced by the food will flow into the partition 110, and the disc-shaped partition 110 can contain a certain amount of juice, thereby preventing the juice from flowing to the inner wall of the cavity 120; after cooking, the partition 110 can be removed from the cavity 120 for cleaning. The disc-shaped partition 110 is relatively easy to clean, which can reduce the difficulty of cleaning.

[0078] To form the hot air duct 113, there needs to be a gap between the bottom of the food carrier 120 and the partition 110, refer to Figure 11 and Figure 12The air-frying assembly 100 further comprises a supporting leg 160 connected to the food material carrier 120, which can be connected by welding, threaded connection, gluing, etc., or can be integrally formed with the food material carrier 120; the supporting leg 160 is placed on the partition 110, and the supporting leg 160 supports the food material carrier 120, so that there is a gap between the bottom of the food material carrier 120 and the partition 110, ensuring that the hot air can be blown from the bottom of the food material carrier 120 to the food material. While the supporting leg 160 supports the food material carrier 120, the size of the supporting leg 160 is relatively small, so the supporting leg 160 has a small blocking effect on the hot air in the hot air duct 113, and has a small effect on the cooking effect. Referring to Figure 11 and Figure 12 , the supporting leg 160 can be provided with four supporting legs 160, which are arranged on the four sides of the food material carrier 120 to provide stable support for the food material carrier 120. The number and arrangement position of the supporting leg 160 are not limited to the above-mentioned scheme, and can be arranged according to actual needs. Figure 13 and Figure 14 .

[0079] It can be understood that the above-mentioned supporting leg 160 can also be connected to the partition 110, and the food material carrier 120 is placed on the supporting leg 160. In addition to directly placing the food material carrier 120 on the partition 110, the food material carrier 120 and the partition 110 can also be detachably connected by means of buckles, bolts, etc., to further improve the stability of the food material carrier 120. It should be noted that considering that juice may flow into the partition 110 during cooking, the food material carrier 120 and the partition 110 should be arranged as a separable structure, such as the above-mentioned direct placement or detachable connection, to reduce the difficulty of cleaning.
