Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of energy-saving equipment technology, specifically to a hot air circulating heating fan and an oven. Background Technology
[0002] An oven is an appliance used for baking food and is one of the most commonly used appliances in households. Ovens are generally divided into two types: convection ovens and flat ovens. Convection ovens use hot air circulation to bake food, making the baking temperature inside the oven more uniform. Flat ovens, on the other hand, use the heat source directly to bake food, and there will be a certain temperature difference in different parts of the oven. They are suitable for foods with special baking requirements. Each type has its own advantages and characteristics.
[0003] When using a convection oven, inexperienced users often fail to accurately control the temperature and time, resulting in food burning. Burnt food produces smoke and odors, making oven cleaning difficult. Furthermore, burnt food causes localized heating, leading to uneven temperatures inside the oven. This forces the oven to consume more energy to compensate for the temperature differences, increasing energy consumption and affecting the oven's energy efficiency. Summary of the Invention

The heating element 10 has a through-hole 1001. When the airflow generated by the fan blade 9 passes through the through-hole 1001 and passes through the heating element 10, it is heated into hot airflow. There are ten heating elements 10 in total. The ten heating elements 10 are staggered so that the through-holes 1001 are staggered and form a spiral channel in the whole, so as to increase the time for the airflow to pass through the heating element 10 and improve the heating effect of the heating element 10 on the airflow. The wire 11 is fixedly installed on the heating element 10. The wire 11 is used to supply power to the heating element 10. The energized heating element 10 can generate heat.

The gear 25 meshes with the tooth 26, and when the gear 25 rotates, it controls the rotation of the mounting ring 22 through the tooth 26, thereby driving the electromagnetic block 35 to move.
[0033] like Figures 4-5 As shown, it also includes: a connecting shell y16 fixedly installed on the top of the chassis 1, the connecting shell y16 being open to the outside, and the airflow drawn in by the fan blade 9 when rotating will enter the central tube 5 from the outside through the connecting shell y16; a rotating plate x17 rotatably installed on the connecting shell y16, the rotating plate x17 being arranged in a row of eight, the rotating plate x17 closing the connecting shell y16, and opening the connecting shell y16 after rotation; and a torsion spring x18 fixedly installed between the rotating plate x17 and the connecting shell y16, the torsion spring x18 enabling the rotating plate x17 to return to its original position after rotation, the torsion spring x18 being sleeved on the shaft of the rotating plate x17.
[0034] like Figure 9As shown, it also includes: a connecting shell z27 fixedly installed on the right side wall of the inner liner 3, the connecting shell z27 communicating with the outside, allowing the inner liner 3 to directly receive external airflow; a rotating plate y28 rotatably installed on the connecting shell z27, the rotating plate y28 is arranged in a row of five, the rotating plate y28 closes the connecting shell z27, and opens the connecting shell z27 after rotation; a torsion spring y29 fixedly installed between the rotating plate y28 and the connecting shell z27, the torsion spring y29 allows the rotating plate y28 to return to its original position after rotation, the torsion spring y29 is sleeved on the shaft of the rotating plate y28.
[0035] like Figures 9-11 As shown, it also includes: a fixed frame 30 fixedly installed on the right side of the casing 1; a filter element 31 fixedly installed on the fixed frame 30, the filter element 31 being connected to the central tube 5, the central tube 5 passing soot into the filter element 31 for purification before discharge; a mounting bracket 32 fixedly installed inside the right end of the central tube 5; a rotatable inclined plate 33 installed on the mounting bracket 32, the inclined plate 33 closing the right end of the central tube 5, and when the inclined plate 33 tilts after rotation, it will open the right end of the central tube 5 to discharge the airflow containing soot to the filter element 31 and accelerate the airflow speed; a torsion spring z34 fixedly installed between the inclined plate 33 and the mounting bracket 32, the torsion spring z34 enabling the inclined plate 33 to self-reset after rotation, the torsion spring z34 being sleeved on the shaft of the inclined plate 33; and an electromagnetic block 35 fixedly installed on the central tube 5, the electromagnetic block 35 being controlled by the control panel to be magnetized, the electromagnetic block 35 being magnetized to attract the inclined plate 33 and control the rotation of the inclined plate 33.
[0036] Using this oven:
[0037] Open the door cover 2, first adjust the position of the shelf 4 according to the volume of the food to be baked, then place the food on the shelf 4, close the door cover 2, and then use the control panel to start the oven and set the required baking time and baking temperature.
[0038] The hot air circulation fan starts, the heating element 10 is energized to generate heat, the motor x8 drives the fan blade 9 to rotate, drawing air from the outside and supplying it into the central tube 5. The rotating plate x17 is rotated by the airflow to open the connecting shell y16, and the torsion spring x18 is twisted. The airflow entering the central tube 5 passes through the heating element 10 and is heated to the set temperature. Then, it is evenly distributed into the inner liner 3 through the branch pipe 6 to bake the food. When both the inner liner 3 and the central tube 5 are filled with airflow, the suction device 13 starts, drawing the airflow from the inner liner 3 towards the frame shell 7, while the fan blade 9 guides it into the central tube. The air is reheated inside the oven and then circulated back into the inner liner 3, thus forming a heat cycle. This allows the oven to recover excess heat and save energy. When the suction device 13 supplies airflow into the inner liner 3, the fan blades 9 no longer need to obtain a large amount of airflow from the outside. Therefore, the airflow passing through the rotating plate x17 decreases, and the force on the rotating plate x17 decreases. The torsion spring x18 can then reset the rotating plate x17 and close the connecting shell y16. Since the airflow no longer needs to be obtained from the outside, the airflow inside the oven enters circulation and is not disturbed by the external environment. Thus, the circulation of hot airflow tends to be stable.
[0039] When food is accidentally burned while using this oven, the circulating hot air will carry the smoke through the suction device 13. The suction device 13 will detect this and immediately: ① The sensing device will cut off the power to the heating element 10, stop the heating airflow, and prevent the food from burning further. At the same time, the hot air circulation fan will stop uniformly controlling the temperature, thereby reducing unnecessary energy consumption; ② The sensing device will control the motor x8 to start, control the magnetic block 23 to rotate, guide the fixing block 19 to abut the block x20, rotate the heating element 10 so that its upper opening 1001 is aligned, and the airflow containing the smoke can quickly pass through the heating element 10 and move towards the filter element 31; ③ The sensing device will control the electromagnetic block 35 to attract the inclined plate 33, causing the inclined plate 33 to tilt and open the central tube 5, so that the filter element 31 can safely process the smoke in the airflow and discharge it. At the same time, the inclined plate 33 will accelerate the airflow towards the filter element 31, so that the filter element 31 can better capture the smoke in the airflow and improve the processing effect of the filter element 31.
[0040] When a certain amount of airflow is discharged from the inner liner 3, the air pressure inside the inner liner 3 is lower than that outside. Then, the rotating plate y28 can be rotated under the action of the air pressure difference, and the torsion spring y29 twists, allowing airflow to enter the inner liner 3 and preventing the door cover 2 from being unable to open due to negative pressure inside the inner liner 3. When the air pressure difference in the inner liner 3 is restored, the torsion spring y29 rotates back to the rotating plate y28, so that the inner liner 3 returns to the closed state.
[0041] In summary, when food burns during use, the oven automatically stops heating and removes the burnt smoke, preventing energy waste caused by the continued increase in energy consumption and reducing cleaning issues. Once the food is no longer being baked and the burnt smoke inside the oven has been completely removed, motor x8 shuts off, fan blade 9 stops rotating, and the oven stops operating. Users can reset the oven using the reset function on the control panel when handling food, so that it can be used again later.
[0042] The recovery function includes: controlling the electromagnetic block 35 to close, the torsion spring z34 controlling the inclined plate 33 to rotate back to the right end of the closed central tube 5, so that when the oven is used again, the hot air flow in the central tube 5 can enter the branch tube 6; and controlling the motor y24 to start and reverse, so that the magnetic block 23 reverses, so that all the heating elements 10 are rotated back to the spiral shape of the through-hole 1001.
[0043] The embodiments described above are merely preferred embodiments of the present invention, and while the descriptions are specific and detailed, they should not be construed as limiting the scope of the present invention. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications, improvements, and substitutions without departing from the concept of the present invention, and these all fall within the scope of protection of the present invention. Therefore, the scope of protection of this patent should be determined by the appended claims.
