Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of kitchen appliances, in particular to an air fryer. Background Art

[0002] The current drawer-type air fryer includes a cooking cavity and a fryer assembly that can enter and exit the cooking cavity. The fryer assembly includes a pot body and a baking tray arranged in the pot body. The pot body generally includes a pot body bottom wall and pot body side walls that are surrounded upward along the pot body bottom wall. The height of the pot body side walls is relatively high, which is very inconvenient for users to take and place the baking tray or directly take the food on the baking tray.

[0003] In addition, the baking tray is placed at the bottom of the pot body, and the position of the baking tray is fixed. During the cooking process, the temperature can only be controlled through the cooking program, which places high requirements on the thermostat and is not conducive to cost reduction. In addition, the overall weight of the pot body and the baking tray is relatively large, and it is more laborious for users to pick up the entire fryer assembly, which reduces the user experience.

[0004] In order to solve at least some of the problems in the prior art, the existing patent CN 213605935 U discloses an air fryer, wherein the fryer assembly includes a pot body, a support frame and a hanging part arranged in the pot body. The support frame can be hung at different heights of the hanging part so that the height of the support frame in the pot body cavity is adjustable. The user can adjust the height of the support frame according to the amount of food to improve cooking efficiency. Although the above scheme proposes some improvements, the pot body is still a conventional large-sized pot body with a certain depth, which is very inconvenient for users to take and put the support frame. In addition, due to the limitation of the circumferential side wall of the pot body, it is not conducive to placing a large volume of food on the support frame for cooking, which limits the user's use needs. In addition, the use of the support frame in conjunction with the hanging part can easily cause the center of gravity to be biased upward, and the support frame is difficult to maintain a horizontal state, which will cause uneven heating of the food on the support frame.

[0005] Another patent CN 220442526 U discloses an air fryer, whose frying basket assembly includes at least two frying baskets arranged in layers, each frying basket includes an inner pot and an insulation wall, the number of components is large and the structure is relatively complex, and the larger inner pot is equivalent to the pot body in the prior art, which is also inconvenient to use. Furthermore, for each frying basket, the inner pot is locked on the insulation wall, and the position of the inner pot is relatively fixed, which cannot achieve the purpose of adjusting the cooking temperature according to the change of the position of the inner pot, limiting the use scenario of the air fryer.

[0018] Due to the adoption of the above technical solution, the utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0019] 1. The air fryer of the utility model omits the setting of the pot body in order to solve the technical problems that the height of the support frame is adjusted by the hanging parts in the prior art, which is not conducive to keeping the support frame horizontal, and it is difficult to cook large-volume food due to the limitation of the pot body. The air fryer of the utility model does not need to set the hanging parts, and the baking tray is exposed in the cooking cavity, which is conducive to the cooking of large-volume food. There is no need to set the hanging parts. The baking tray can be easily installed by matching with the hanging position on the hanging panel. The contact area between the baking tray and the hanging panel is large, which is conducive to keeping the baking tray in a horizontal state, and then it is conducive to evenly heating the food on the baking tray to improve the cooking effect.

[0020] Furthermore, the baking tray can be moved relative to the mounting panel to switch the working position, so that the height of the baking tray in the cooking cavity is adjustable, which is not only conducive to adapting to ingredients of different capacities, but also can use the change of the baking tray position to adjust the distance between the ingredients and the upper heating element to achieve the purpose of regulating the cooking temperature and improve the performance of the air fryer. Among them, the height of the baking tray is less than 1 / 4 of the height of the cooking cavity, which can avoid the baking tray being too deep and not conducive to the user to take and put the ingredients, providing convenience for the user.

[0021] 2. In order to simplify the configuration of the air fryer and reduce the cost, as a preferred embodiment, the air fryer has a temperature mark corresponding to each of the working positions, and the air fryer is provided with a thermostat for controlling the heating element, and the thermostat is a jump-type thermostat. Specifically, the maximum working temperature of the heating element of the present application is fixed and cannot be adjusted, and the thermostat plays a role of safety protection. When the temperature of the heating element reaches the maximum working temperature, the thermostat is activated to disconnect the circuit. The thermostat has a simple structure and can greatly reduce the machine configuration cost compared to the adjustable temperature thermostat used in the prior art.

[0022] Since the present application can correspond to different temperatures according to different working positions, the purpose of temperature control can be achieved by simply adjusting the position of the baking tray between different working positions. It is easy to use and allows users to select the required temperature according to different ingredients to improve the cooking effects of different ingredients.

[0023] 3. In order to facilitate users to more intuitively select different cooking temperatures to cook different ingredients, in one embodiment, the mounting panel is provided with the temperature mark at each working position. Thus, the user can move the baking tray to a working position corresponding to a certain temperature according to the ingredients to be cooked, which is simple to operate and can enhance the user experience.

[0024] 4. To achieve intelligent adjustment of the position of the baking tray and save the user's operation, in one embodiment, the air fryer has a controller, in which a temperature mark corresponding to each working position is stored, and the controller is configured to match the cooking temperature selected by the user with the temperature mark and adjust the working position of the baking tray accordingly. As a result, the user only needs to select the required cooking temperature, and the air fryer can automatically adjust the position of the baking tray, which greatly reduces the burden on the user; and it is conducive to real-time adjustment of the position of the baking tray during the cooking process, so as to adjust the temperature according to the cooking degree of the ingredients, more accurately control the cooking temperature, and improve the cooking taste of the food.

[0025] Furthermore, the air fryer is also provided with a driving member, the baking tray is slidably connected to the hanging panel, and the controller is configured to control the driving member to drive the baking tray to slide along the hanging panel to adjust the working position. Thus, the driving member controls the movement of the baking tray to switch the working position, thereby realizing intelligent adjustment of the baking tray, freeing the hands of the user, and facilitating the continuous adjustment of the position of the baking tray during the processing to meet the heating requirements, so that the baking tray is always in a favorable position to improve the cooking efficiency.

[0026] 5. In order to facilitate the disassembly and assembly of the baking tray to switch the working position and improve the stability of the baking tray installation, as a preferred embodiment, the mounting panel is provided with a locking part at each working position, and the baking tray is provided with a matching part, and the baking tray is locked and unlocked with the matching part and the locking part to be installed in different working positions. When in use, the baking tray is moved to the desired working position, and then the baking tray is fixed by locking with the locking part and the matching part, which can ensure the supporting effect of the baking tray on the food and prevent the food from falling due to the shaking of the baking tray.

[0027] Furthermore, in one embodiment, the baking pan includes a pan body and a flange extending upward along the periphery of the pan body, the locking portion is a slot, the matching portion is an insert, and the insert is arranged on the flange. The insert cooperates with the slot, and the structure is simple, which can simplify the structure of the fryer assembly. The insert is arranged on the flange, which can avoid the need to set a longer length when the insert extends outward from the bottom surface of the plate-shaped pan body. The flange can strengthen the overall structural strength of the baking pan. The insert is arranged on the flange, which is not only easy to process, but also can keep the insert away from the pan body to reduce the temperature of the pan body from being transferred to the insert, which is conducive to reducing the probability of the insert being deformed by heat and extending its service life.

[0028] Furthermore, there are two inserts, which are respectively arranged near the two ends of the width direction of the mounting panel, and the mounting panel is provided with two slots corresponding to the inserts at the height of each working position. Therefore, when the baking tray is installed at each working position, the two inserts and the slots can cooperate to keep the baking tray in a horizontal state, so that the food on the baking tray is heated evenly, improving the overall heating effect of the food.

[0029] 6. In order to improve the uniformity of heating the food and achieve the effect of not turning over the food, as a preferred embodiment, an oil receiving pan is provided at the bottom of the cooking cavity, an air inlet channel is formed between the baking pan and the oil receiving pan, and the baking pan is provided with air holes. Therefore, during the cooking process, a part of the hot air flow flows into the air inlet channel and can heat the lower surface of the food at the bottom of the baking pan, which is conducive to improving the uniformity of heating the upper and lower surfaces of the food and optimizing the taste of the food. The air holes can ensure that the airflow flows back upward to form an air circulation.

[0030] 7. In order to enhance the sealing effect of the mounting panel on the opening, reduce heat loss and improve heating efficiency, as a preferred embodiment, the mounting panel is provided with mounting surfaces at both ends in the width direction, the housing is provided with a mating surface that abuts against the mounting surface, the mounting surface is provided with a vertically extending sealing rib protruding outward, and the mating surface is recessed inward to form a vertically extending sealing groove that matches the sealing rib. Therefore, when the fryer assembly is installed in place, the sealing rib is plugged into the sealing groove, which can improve the airtightness of the cooking cavity and reduce heat loss compared with the planar abutment method.

[0046] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, the present application provides an air fryer, comprising a shell 11 and a fryer assembly 12 with a cooking cavity 10 and a hot air component therein, the hot air component comprising a heating element 131 and a fan 132, an opening 111 communicating with the cooking cavity 10 is provided on one side of the shell 11, the fryer assembly 12 enters and exits the cooking cavity 10 through the opening 111, the fryer assembly 12 comprises a longitudinally arranged hanging panel 14 and a baking tray 15 horizontally abutted against the hanging panel 14, the hanging panel 14 closes the opening 111 when the fryer assembly 12 is loaded into the cooking cavity 10, the baking tray 15 is exposed in the cooking cavity 10, the height of the baking tray 15 is less than 1 / 4 of the height of the cooking cavity 10, the hanging panel 14 is provided with a plurality of working positions 16 spaced apart in the vertical direction, and the baking tray 15 can move relative to the hanging panel 14 to switch the working positions 16.

[0047] The air fryer of the present invention omits the setting of the pot body in order to solve the technical problems that the height of the support frame is adjusted by the hanging parts in the prior art, which is not conducive to keeping the support frame horizontal, and it is difficult to cook large-volume food due to the limitation of the pot body. The air fryer of the present invention omits the setting of the pot body, and the baking tray 15 is exposed in the cooking cavity 10, which is conducive to the cooking of large-volume food, and there is no need to set the hanging parts. The baking tray 15 can be easily installed by matching with the hanging position on the hanging panel 14. The baking tray 15 and the hanging panel 14 are abutted and matched, and the contact area between the two is large, which is conducive to keeping the baking tray 15 in a horizontal state, and then it is conducive to uniform heating of the food on the baking tray 15 to improve the cooking effect.

[0048] Furthermore, the baking tray 15 can be moved relative to the mounting panel 14 to switch the working position 16, so that the height of the baking tray 15 in the cooking cavity 10 is adjustable, which is not only conducive to adapting to food of different capacities, but also can be used to adjust the distance between the food and the upper heating element 131 by changing the position of the baking tray 15, so as to achieve the purpose of regulating the cooking temperature and improve the performance of the air fryer. Among them, the height of the baking tray 15 is less than 1 / 4 of the height of the cooking cavity 10, which can avoid the baking tray 15 being too deep and not conducive to the user to take and put the food, and provides convenience for the user.

[0049] like Figure 2 , Figure 3 or Figure 4 As shown, the fryer assembly 12 only includes a hanging panel 14 with a handle and a baking tray 15, with few components and a simple structure. The baking tray 15 can be detachably mounted on the hanging panel 14 or slidably connected to the hanging panel 14. The two can be directly matched and hung without an intermediate structure, which further simplifies the structural configuration. The position of the baking tray 15 can be adjusted manually or automatically by program control, which improves the flexibility of the position switching of the baking tray 15. The baking tray 15, for example, includes an upwardly extending flange 152. The height of the baking tray 15 is determined by the height of the flange 152. The flange 152 can block the food on the edge of the baking tray 15 to prevent the food from falling, and the height of the flange 152 is relatively small, which is very convenient for users to take and put food on the baking tray 15.

[0050] The mode of switching the working position 16 of the baking tray 15 may be slightly different in different installation modes. For example, when the baking tray 15 is detachably installed, the baking tray 15 switches between various working positions 16; when the baking tray 15 is slidably connected to the hanging panel 14, the baking tray 15 can not only move to various working positions 16 (corresponding positions), but also move to positions between adjacent working positions 16. At this time, the sliding adjustment position of the baking tray 15 has a higher precision. In addition, the spacing between adjacent working positions 16 can be the same or different, and can be set according to actual needs, such as Figure 3 An example is shown in which a plurality of working stations 16 are arranged at equal intervals.

[0051] When the baking tray 15 is detachably mounted, the user can manually adjust the position of the baking tray 15. For example, when there are many ingredients to be cooked, the baking tray 15 can be installed near the lower end of the hanging panel 14. At this time, there is a large space above the baking tray 15 for holding the ingredients. On the contrary, when there are fewer ingredients to be cooked, the baking tray 15 can be installed upward. At this time, the ingredients are closer to the heating element 131, the heating efficiency is high, and the cooking time can be shortened. When the baking tray 15 is slidably connected to the hanging panel 14, the air fryer can automatically adjust the position of the baking tray 15, so that the baking tray 15 can be automatically raised and lowered according to the degree of doneness of the food during the cooking process to adjust the distance between the ingredients on the baking tray 15 and the heating element 131, so as to avoid burning or insufficient heating of the food and improve the cooking efficiency; the user's hands can be freed to achieve intelligent control.

[0052] In order to simplify the configuration of the air fryer and reduce the cost, as a preferred implementation, the air fryer has a temperature mark corresponding to each of the working positions 16, and the air fryer is provided with a temperature controller for controlling the heating element 131, and the temperature controller is a jump type temperature controller.

[0053] In this embodiment, the heating temperature of the food on the baking tray 15 is changed by adjusting the working position 16 where the baking tray 15 is located, without relying on the temperature control of the thermostat. The thermostat only plays a role of safety protection. When the temperature of the heating element 131 reaches the limit working temperature, the thermostat is activated to disconnect the circuit. The thermostat has a simple structure and can greatly reduce the machine configuration cost compared with the adjustable temperature thermostat used in the prior art. Specifically, the higher the baking tray 15 is (i.e., the higher the height), the closer the food on the baking tray 15 is to the heating element 131, and thus the higher the heating temperature. Conversely, the lower the baking tray 15 is (i.e., the lower the height), the farther the food on the baking tray 15 is from the heating element 131, and thus the heating temperature is lower. The user can select the position of the baking tray 15 according to different food materials to correspond to the required temperature, which is conducive to improving the cooking effect of different food materials.

[0054] In order to facilitate users to more intuitively select different cooking temperatures to cook different ingredients, in one embodiment, the mounting panel 14 is provided with the temperature mark at each of the working positions 16 .

[0055] In this embodiment, the temperature mark includes specific temperature words, such as 100°C, 150°C, 200°C, etc., which are marked on the inner surface or outer surface of the mounting panel 14. Each work position 16 corresponds to a temperature mark. The user selects the required temperature according to the ingredients to be cooked, and then moves the baking tray 15 to the corresponding work position 16. Further, in order to enhance the user experience, each work position 16 is also marked with the type of cooking ingredients that are suitable for cooking. For example, words such as French fries, sweet potatoes, and chicken wings are displayed next to the temperature mark to provide a reference for the user. In this way, the user can select the appropriate temperature mark according to the ingredients to be cooked and adjust the work position 16 of the baking tray 15, which reduces the difficulty of cooking and saves the user's time.

[0056] In order to realize intelligent adjustment of the position of the baking tray 15 and save the user's operation, in another embodiment, the air fryer has a controller, which stores a temperature mark corresponding to each working position 16, and the controller is configured to match the cooking temperature selected by the user with the temperature mark and adjust the working position 16 of the baking tray 15 accordingly.

[0057] In this embodiment, the temperature mark is stored by the controller and may not be displayed on the external structure. The air fryer is provided with operating components such as buttons and knobs on the housing 11, so that the user can select the cooking temperature through buttons and knobs. When the controller receives the user operation, the controller can adjust the position of the baking tray 15 accordingly. This embodiment realizes the automatic adjustment of the position of the baking tray 15, which can reduce the burden on the user, and is conducive to adjusting the position of the baking tray 15 in real time during the cooking process, so as to adjust the temperature according to the cooking degree of the ingredients, more accurately control the cooking temperature, and improve the cooking taste of the food.

[0058] Furthermore, the air fryer is also provided with a driving member, the baking tray 15 is slidably connected to the hanging panel 14, and the controller is configured to control the driving member to drive the baking tray 15 to slide along the hanging panel 14 to adjust the working position 16.

[0059] For example, the mounting panel 14 is provided with a slide rail, and the baking tray 15 is provided with a slider that cooperates with the slide rail, and the slider slides along the slide rail to adjust the position of the baking tray 15. Figure 5 As shown, the mounting panel 14 is provided with a screw 17, and the baking tray 15 is provided with a sliding part that cooperates with the screw 17. The position of the baking tray 15 can be adjusted by lifting and lowering the sliding part along the screw 17. The driving member can be a driving structure such as a motor or a cylinder, which is set according to actual needs. The driving member controls the baking tray 15 to move and switch the working position 16, thereby realizing intelligent adjustment of the baking tray 15, freeing the user's hands, and facilitating continuous adjustment of the position of the baking tray 15 during the processing process to meet the heating requirements, so that the baking tray 15 is always in a favorable position to improve the cooking efficiency.

[0060] In order to facilitate the disassembly and assembly of the baking tray 15 to switch the working position 16 and improve the stability of the installation of the baking tray 15, as a preferred embodiment, the hanging panel 14 is provided with a locking part at each of the working positions 16, and the baking tray 15 is provided with a matching part, and the baking tray 15 is locked and unlocked with the matching part and the locking part to be installed in different working positions 16. When in use, the baking tray 15 is moved to the desired working position 16, and then the baking tray 15 is fixed by locking with the locking part and the matching part, which can ensure the supporting effect of the baking tray 15 on the food and prevent the baking tray 15 from shaking and causing the food to fall.

[0061] Further, in one embodiment, if Figure 3 or Figure 4 As shown, the baking tray 15 includes a tray body 151 and a flange 152 extending upward along the periphery of the tray body 151 , the locking portion is a slot 18 , the matching portion is an insert 19 , and the insert 19 is disposed on the flange 152 .

[0062] The insert 19 cooperates with the slot 18 to have a simple structure, and the structure of the fryer assembly 12 can be simplified. The insert 19 is arranged on the flange 152, so that the insert 19 does not need to be arranged for a long length when extending outward from the bottom surface of the plate-shaped dish body 151. The flange 152 can strengthen the overall structural strength of the baking tray 15. The insert 19 is arranged on the flange 152, which is convenient for processing and can also keep the insert 19 away from the dish body 151 to reduce the temperature of the dish body 151 from being transferred to the insert 19, which is beneficial to reducing the probability of heat deformation of the insert 19 and extending its service life.

[0063] Furthermore, there are two inserts 19, which are respectively arranged near the two ends of the width direction of the hanging panel 14, and the hanging panel 14 is provided with two slots 18 corresponding to the inserts 19 at the height of each working position 16. Therefore, when the baking tray 15 is installed at each working position 16, the two inserts 19 and the slots 18 can cooperate to keep the baking tray 15 in a horizontal state, so that the food on the baking tray 15 is heated evenly, thereby improving the overall heating effect of the food.

[0064] Furthermore, after the inserting piece 19 is inserted into the slot 18 , the front end of the inserting piece 19 can be bent upward or downward, which can prevent the inserting piece 19 from being disengaged from the slot 18 , thereby improving the firmness of the installation of the baking tray 15 .

[0065] In order to improve the uniformity of heating the food and achieve the effect of not turning over the food, as a preferred embodiment, an oil receiving pan is provided at the bottom of the cooking cavity 10, an air inlet channel is formed between the baking pan 15 and the oil receiving pan, and the baking pan 15 is provided with air holes. Therefore, during the cooking process, a part of the hot air flow flows into the air inlet channel and can heat the lower surface of the food at the bottom of the baking pan 15, which is beneficial to improve the uniformity of heating the upper and lower surfaces of the food and optimize the taste of the food. The air holes can ensure that the air flow flows back upward to form an air circulation.

[0066] In order to enhance the sealing effect of the hanging panel 14 on the opening 111, reduce heat loss and improve heating efficiency, as a preferred embodiment, the hanging panel 14 is provided with mounting surfaces 141 at both ends in the width direction, and the shell 11 is provided with a mating surface abutting and mating with the mounting surface 141, and a vertically extending sealing rib 142 is protruding outward from the mounting surface 141, and the mating surface is recessed inward to form a vertically extending sealing groove that cooperates with the sealing rib 142.

[0067] like Figures 2 to 4 As shown, the mounting panel 14 extends in an arc shape, which can improve the structural strength compared with a flat plate structure, and can strengthen the support strength of the baking tray 15 and improve the stability of the installation of the baking tray 15. If the mounting surface 141 and the matching surface are directly abutted, it is easy for airflow to flow out from the matching gap between the mounting surface 141 and the matching surface, while the sealing rib 142 is plugged into the sealing groove, which can improve the airtightness of the cooking cavity 10 and reduce heat loss compared with the flat abutment method.

[0068] The technical solution protected by the present utility model is not limited to the above-mentioned embodiments. It should be pointed out that the combination of the technical solution of any embodiment with the technical solution of one or more other embodiments is within the protection scope of the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail above with general descriptions and specific embodiments, it is obvious to those skilled in the art that some modifications or improvements can be made to it based on the present utility model. Therefore, these modifications or improvements made without departing from the spirit of the present utility model are within the scope of protection claimed by the present utility model.
