Description

Technical Field

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

[0002] An air fryer is a food cooking tool that uses hot air to fry the surface of food. Under the high temperature environment of the air fryer, the surface of the food will be too dry, so a water discharge device is provided to put water into the pot body, and then the water is converted into water vapor through a hot air component to maintain the humidity of the cooking environment and improve the taste of the food. Usually, there is no linkage between the water discharge device and the pot body of this air fryer. After the pot body is taken out, the water in the water discharge device will continue to flow downward, causing the water to contact with the electrical components at the bottom of the air fryer and cause a short circuit. In order to avoid this situation, a switch device is designed that can control the water discharge device to continue dripping after the pot body is removed. For example, a switch device disclosed in the prior art CN214595560U A multifunctional air fryer comprises a machine body and a pot body, wherein the machine body is provided with a dripping device for dripping water toward the pot body, the dripping device comprises a water cylinder assembly, the water cylinder assembly comprises a water tank for holding water, the water tank is provided with a dripping portion and a switch device for controlling the dripping of the dripping portion, the switch device comprises a swingable lever, one end of the lever is provided with a valve for switching the dripping portion, the other end of the lever has a trigger portion that swings after being triggered, the dripping portion is a water outlet hole opened on the water tank, the valve is arranged at the water outlet hole, the valve opens or closes the water outlet hole under the drive of the lever, so that water can be accurately dripped into the pot body as needed.

[0003] However, in the above-mentioned prior art, this switch device can only prevent the dripping device from continuing to drip after the pot body is removed by sealing the mouth of the water outlet, and the sealing is achieved through the contact surface of the two components, which not only has requirements on the end surface of the mouth of the water outlet, but also has requirements on the contact surface of the valve, which not only increases the cost, but also causes the valve to not move in place, and it is easy to have an unreliable closure, resulting in water leakage from the dripping device after the pot body is removed. Utility Model Content

[0004] The utility model aims to provide an air fryer to solve the problem of possible water leakage caused by unreliable sealing of the mouth of the water outlet through a valve, so that the water outlet pipe can be closed more reliably to prevent water leakage.

[0005] In order to achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the utility model adopts the following technical scheme: an air fryer, comprising a machine body and a pot body, the pot body being detachably mounted on the machine body, the pot body having a cooking cavity, the machine body being provided with a water storage container, the water storage container being connected to a water outlet pipe for draining water into the cooking cavity, the machine body being provided with a pipe clamping member and a driving member, the pipe clamping member acting on the outer peripheral side of the water outlet pipe, the pipe clamping member having a tendency to keep the water outlet pipe clamped and closed, the driving member being used to drive the pipe clamping member and loosen the water outlet pipe after the cooking cavity is closed.

[0006] After adopting the above technical scheme, the utility model has the following advantages: the design of the pipe clamp and the driving member can realize accurate control of the dripping and stopping of water flow before and after the cooking chamber is closed. Different from the prior art, the pipe clamp acts on the outer peripheral side of the water outlet pipe, exerts force on the water outlet pipe to deform the water outlet pipe and close it. The closing purpose is achieved by changing the shape of the inner wall of the water outlet pipe, and there is no need to consider the sealing matching relationship with other components. Not only can higher closing reliability be obtained in a low-cost manner, but also such a closing method makes the position of the pipe clamp unrestricted, and the flexibility of the setting of the pipe clamp is higher, which can effectively avoid safety hazards such as short circuit caused by contact between water and the bottom electrical appliances, thereby improving the overall safety and convenience of the equipment.

[0007] Furthermore, the pipe clamping member includes a pipe pressing section that presses the water outlet pipe and a force-bearing part that acts on the driving member. A laterally extending support table is provided in the body, the water outlet pipe extends laterally along the support table, and the pipe pressing section extends laterally and presses the water outlet pipe onto the support table.

[0008] The aforementioned technical solution is adopted, and the pipe clamp includes a pipe pressing section and a force-bearing part, which cooperates with the lateral support surface in the machine body, and the water outlet pipe extends horizontally on the support surface, and the pipe pressing section firmly presses the water outlet pipe on the support surface, thereby realizing reliable clamping of the water outlet pipe and improving the stability and reliability of the air fryer. Moreover, the water outlet pipe extends horizontally along the support surface, which can reduce the kinetic energy of water flowing therein, and it is easier to prevent water from flowing through the water outlet pipe after it is squeezed, thereby improving the closing reliability.

[0009] Furthermore, a first elastic member is provided on the pipe clamping member, and the elastic force of the first elastic member maintains the tendency of clamping and closing the water outlet pipe.

[0010] By adopting the above-mentioned technical solution, the first elastic member provides a force to keep the water outlet pipe clamped and closed, and it is reliable and effective in the long term. When water stopping is required, this force can ensure that the pipe clamping member firmly clamps and closes the water outlet pipe. When there is no need to continue to stop the water, the first elastic member can return to its original state in time to ensure that the water outlet pipe can subsequently discharge water smoothly.

[0011] Furthermore, the pipe clamping member includes a mounting section connected between the pipe pressing section and the force-bearing portion, the mounting section is bent relative to the pipe pressing section and extends toward the pot body, and the first elastic member is sleeved on the mounting section.

[0012] By adopting the above-mentioned technical solution, the first elastic member is sleeved on the installation section, which provides higher reliability for the installation of the first elastic member, and the installation section is bent relative to the tube pressing section. The tube pressing section can be used to provide positioning for the upper end of the first elastic member, thereby preventing the first elastic member from accidentally detaching from the tube clamping member to a certain extent.

[0013] Furthermore, a limiting rib is provided between the mounting section and the force-bearing part, the upper end of the first elastic member abuts against the pressing tube section, and the lower end abuts against the limiting rib; or, a bracket is provided in the body, the support table is provided on the bracket, the pressing tube section is located above the support table, the mounting section passes through the bracket, a limiting rib is provided between the mounting section and the force-bearing part, the upper end of the first elastic member abuts against the bracket, and the lower end abuts against the limiting rib; or, the body has an mounting cavity and a reflective cover separating the mounting cavity from the cooking cavity, the tube clamp is movably installed in the mounting cavity, and the support table is located on the surface of the reflective cover facing the mounting cavity.

[0014] By adopting the above-mentioned technical scheme, the limiting rib can provide support for the lower end of the first elastic member, so that the first elastic member can generate a continuous force for the pipe clamping member; the support table and the pipe clamping member are integrated into the bracket, and can be assembled to form a module first. When installing this module to the body, it is only necessary to pass the water outlet pipe between the pressure pipe section and the support table, which is beneficial to improve the installation efficiency. The installation section passes through the bracket, and the bracket can be used to provide guidance for the movement of the pipe clamping member; the reflective cover separates the installation cavity from the cooking cavity, which can reduce the impact of the heat of the cooking cavity on the installation cavity, and can isolate and protect the pipe clamping member and other devices. At the same time, the reflective cover is used to form a support table, which can reduce structural parts and further reduce costs.

[0015] Furthermore, the pipe clamp moves longitudinally relative to the water outlet pipe and uses its own gravity to maintain a tendency to clamp and close the water outlet pipe.

[0016] By adopting the above-mentioned technical solution, longitudinal movement is achieved through the self-gravity of the pipe clamp. Such a design does not require additional structures, has fewer parts, and has lower costs. It can be achieved only through the self-gravity of the pipe clamp. The movement affected by gravity is more stable and reliable, and can ensure that when no water is needed, the water outlet pipe is in a closed state. It is not easy to fail or malfunction, thereby improving the reliability and durability of the pipe clamp.

[0017] Furthermore, the pipe clamping member includes a dynamic clamping body and a static clamping body, the static clamping body is fixed to the machine body, the dynamic clamping body is hinged to the static clamping body, the water outlet pipe passes between the dynamic clamping body and the static clamping body, the dynamic clamping body closes relative to the static clamping body to clamp the water outlet pipe, and the driving member drives the dynamic clamping body to open relative to the static clamping body to loosen the water outlet pipe.

[0018] With the above-mentioned technical solution, the static clamp body is fixed to the machine body, providing fixed support. When the dynamic clamp body is closed, the water outlet pipe is clamped and closed to prevent water from dripping in; and when the driving member drives the dynamic clamp body to open relative to the static clamp body, the water outlet pipe is loosened to allow water to flow out, thereby achieving accurate control of the opening and closing state of the water outlet pipe. The water outlet pipe passes between the dynamic clamp body and the static clamp body, and the dynamic clamp body and the static clamp body can be used to limit the position, effectively preventing the water outlet pipe from being abnormally displaced during movement, resulting in inability to use normally. In addition, there is no need for the support table to cooperate, and the position selection of the pipe clamp can be more flexible.

[0019] Furthermore, the machine body has a containing cavity, and the pot body is installed into or removed from the containing cavity from one side of the machine body. The pot body serves as a driving member and drives the pipe clamping member to loosen the water outlet pipe after being installed in place.

[0020] By adopting the above-mentioned technical solution, the installation of the pot body can provide a driving force for the pipe clamping device, so that the pipe clamping device loosens the water outlet pipe, and the water outlet pipe can discharge water smoothly. Such a design does not require additional driving parts and simplifies the operating steps. The user only needs to pick up the pot body to control the water flow of the water outlet pipe, which can achieve seamless operation and improve the product's usability and convenience of operation.

[0021] Furthermore, the tube clamp extends into the cooking cavity, and the pot body abuts against the tube clamp to drive the tube clamp; or, the tube clamp is provided with an upper magnet, and the pot body is provided with a lower magnet, the lower magnet and the upper magnet have the same poles facing each other and drive the tube clamp by mutually repelling magnetic forces.

[0022] By adopting the above-mentioned technical solution, the pipe clamp is extended into the cooking cavity. At this time, the pipe clamp is in a state of clamping the water outlet pipe. Whether the pot body abuts against the pipe clamp to generate a force or the magnet generates a mutually repelling magnetic force, the pipe clamp can be driven in time to move and loosen the water outlet pipe so that the water outlet pipe can discharge water in time. By driving the pipe clamp through the mutually repelling magnetic force, the pipe clamp does not need to be extended into the cooking cavity, which can prevent the pipe clamp from contacting oil smoke, reduce sanitary dead corners, and reduce the workload of cleaning.

[0023] Furthermore, the machine body includes a body and a head, the pot body is placed in the body, the driving part is the pot body or the body, the head cover is closed on the body to close the cooking cavity and enable the pot body or the body to act on the pipe clamping part to drive the pipe clamping part to loosen the water outlet pipe; or, the driving part is an electromagnet, the machine body is provided with a control circuit board and a trigger switch, the control circuit board is electrically connected to the trigger switch and the electromagnet respectively, the trigger switch is used to send a trigger signal to the control circuit board after the cooking cavity is closed, and the control circuit board controls the action of the electromagnet according to the trigger signal to drive the pipe clamping part to loosen the water outlet pipe.

[0024] By adopting the above-mentioned technical solution, whether it is driven by the pot body or the machine body, or controlled by the electromagnet, precise control of the water flow can be achieved. Such a design can ensure the accurate timing of water dripping and stopping during the cooking process, thereby improving the controllability of the cooking process.

[0034] The following specific embodiments are used to describe the technical solution of the utility model in detail. The following specific embodiments can be combined or replaced with each other according to actual conditions, and the same or similar concepts or processes may not be described in detail in some embodiments.

[0035] like Figures 1 to 6 As shown, the utility model provides an air fryer, comprising a body 1 and a pot body 2, the pot body 2 is detachably mounted on the body 1, the pot body 2 has a cooking cavity 200, the body 1 is provided with a water storage container 3, the water storage container 3 is connected to a water outlet pipe 4 for draining water into the cooking cavity 200, the body 1 is provided with a pipe clamping member 5 and a driving member, the pipe clamping member 5 acts on the outer peripheral side of the water outlet pipe 4, the pipe clamping member 5 has a tendency to keep the water outlet pipe 4 clamped and closed, and the driving member is used to drive the pipe clamping member 5 and loosen the water outlet pipe 4 after the cooking cavity 200 is closed. The design of the tube clamp 5 and the driving member can realize accurate control of the dripping and stopping of water flow before and after the cooking chamber 200 is closed. Different from the prior art, the tube clamp 5 acts on the outer peripheral side of the water outlet pipe 4, exerts a force on the water outlet pipe 4 to deform the water outlet pipe 4 and close it, so that the shape of the inner wall of the water outlet pipe 4 changes to achieve the closing purpose, and there is no need to consider the sealing matching relationship with other components. Not only can higher closing reliability be obtained in a low-cost manner, but also such a closing method makes the position of the tube clamp 5 unrestricted, and the setting flexibility of the tube clamp 5 is higher, which can effectively avoid safety hazards such as short circuit caused by contact between water and the bottom electrical appliances, thereby improving the overall safety and convenience of the equipment.

[0036] In this embodiment, the pipe clamping member 5 includes a pipe pressing section 51 for pressing the water outlet pipe 4 and a force-bearing portion 52 acting on the driving member. A laterally extending support table 111 is provided in the body 1. The water outlet pipe 4 extends laterally along the support table 111. The pipe pressing section 51 extends laterally and presses the water outlet pipe 4 on the support table 111. The pipe clamping member 5 includes the pipe pressing section 51 and the force-bearing portion 52. In conjunction with the laterally supporting table 111 in the body 1, the water outlet pipe 4 extends horizontally on the support table 111. The pipe pressing section 51 presses the water outlet pipe 4 firmly on the support table 111, thereby achieving reliable clamping of the water outlet pipe 4 and improving the stability and reliability of the air fryer. Moreover, the water outlet pipe 4 extends laterally along the support table 111, which can reduce the kinetic energy of water flowing therein. After the water outlet pipe 4 is squeezed, it is easier to prevent water from flowing through, thereby improving the closing reliability.

[0037] Specifically, a first elastic member 6 is provided on the pipe clamp 5, and the elastic force of the first elastic member 6 is used to maintain the tendency of clamping and closing the water outlet pipe 4. The first elastic member 6 provides a force to keep the water outlet pipe 4 clamped and closed, and is reliable and effective in the long term. When water stopping is required, this force can ensure that the pipe clamp 5 firmly clamps and closes the water outlet pipe 4. When there is no need to continue to stop the water, the first elastic member 6 can return to its original state in time to ensure that the water outlet pipe 4 can subsequently discharge water smoothly.

[0038] Specifically, the tube clamping member 5 includes a mounting section 54 connected between the tube pressing section 51 and the force-bearing portion 52. The mounting section 54 is bent relative to the tube pressing section 51 and extends toward the pot body 2. The first elastic member 6 is sleeved on the mounting section 54. The first elastic member 6 is sleeved on the mounting section 54, which provides higher reliability for the installation of the first elastic member 6. The mounting section 54 is bent relative to the tube pressing section 51. The tube pressing section 51 can be used to provide positioning for the upper end of the first elastic member 6, thereby preventing the first elastic member 6 from accidentally detaching from the tube clamping member 5 to a certain extent.

[0039] In order to limit the movement of the first elastic member 6, a limiting rib 53 is provided between the mounting section 54 and the force-bearing portion 52. The upper end of the first elastic member 6 abuts against the pipe pressing section 51, and the lower end abuts against the limiting rib 53. At the same time, the limiting rib 53 provided between the mounting section 54 and the force-bearing portion 52 also provides additional support and stability for the first elastic member 6. The limiting rib 53 can provide support for the lower end of the first elastic member 6, so that the first elastic member 6 can generate a continuous force for the pipe clamping member 5; the support table 111 and the pipe clamping member 5 are integrated into the bracket, and can be assembled to form a module first. When the module is installed on the body 1, it is only necessary to pass the water outlet pipe 4 between the pipe pressing section 51 and the supporting table 111, which is conducive to improving the installation efficiency. The mounting section 54 passes through the bracket, and the bracket can be used to provide guidance for the movement of the pipe clamping member 5.

[0040] In this embodiment, a bracket 11 is provided in the body 1, a support table 111 is provided on the bracket 11, the pipe pressing section 51 is located above the support table 111, the mounting section 54 passes through the bracket 11, and a limiting rib 53 is provided between the mounting section 54 and the force-bearing portion 52. The upper end of the first elastic member 6 abuts against the bracket 11, and the lower end abuts against the limiting rib 53. The setting of the bracket 11 in the body 1 provides a stable support for the pipe clamping member 5, and the support table 111 further enhances the stability of the structure. The reasonable layout between the pipe pressing section 51 and the mounting section 54 and the setting of the limiting rib 53 ensure the accuracy and safety of its movement.

[0041] It can be understood that the machine body 1 has an installation cavity and a reflective cover separating the installation cavity from the cooking cavity 200, and the pipe clamping member 5 is movably installed in the installation cavity.

[0042] In another embodiment, the support table 111 is located on the surface of the reflective cover facing the installation cavity. The installation cavity and the reflective cover are arranged in the body 1 to separate the installation cavity from the accommodating cavity, thereby achieving isolation and protection of the pipe clamp 5 and other devices. The pipe clamp 5 can be flexibly moved in the installation cavity, and the support table 111 provides stable support on the reflective cover. The operations of the various components do not interfere with each other. The reflective cover separates the installation cavity from the cooking cavity 200, which can reduce the impact of the heat of the cooking cavity 200 on the installation cavity, and can isolate and protect the pipe clamp 5 and other devices. At the same time, the reflective cover is used to form the support table 111, which can reduce structural parts and further reduce costs.

[0043] In another embodiment, the tube clamp 5 moves longitudinally relative to the water outlet pipe 4 and uses its own gravity to maintain the tendency to clamp and close the water outlet pipe 4. The longitudinal movement is achieved by the tube clamp 5's own gravity. Such a design does not require additional structures, has fewer parts, and has lower costs. It can be achieved only by the tube clamp 5's own gravity. The movement affected by gravity is more stable and reliable, and can ensure that the water outlet pipe 4 is in a closed state when no water is needed. It is not prone to failure or malfunction, thereby improving the reliability and durability of the tube clamp 5.

[0044] In order to drive the pipe clamp 5 to loosen the water outlet pipe 4 after the cooking cavity 200 is closed, in this embodiment, the machine body 1 has a receiving cavity, and the pot body 2 is installed in or removed from the receiving cavity from one side of the machine body 1. The pot body 2 serves as a driving member and drives the pipe clamp 5 to loosen the water outlet pipe 4 after being installed in place. The installation of the pot body 2 can provide a driving force for the pipe clamp 5, so that the pipe clamp 5 loosens the water outlet pipe 4, and the water outlet pipe 4 can smoothly discharge water. Such a design does not require additional driving members, and simplifies the operation steps. The user only needs to pick up the pot body 2 to control the water flow of the water outlet pipe 4, and can achieve non-sensing operation, which improves the usability and convenience of operation of the product.

[0045] Specifically, the pipe clamp 5 extends into the cooking cavity 200, and at this time, the pipe clamp 5 is in a state of clamping the water outlet pipe 4, and the pot body 2 abuts against the pipe clamp 5 to drive the pipe clamp 5. The upper edge of the pot body 2 can be provided with the following Figure 6 The guide member 21 is shown to guide the tube clamping member 5 to move relative to the pot body 2.

[0046] In addition to the direct contact between the pot body 2 and the pipe clamp 5, it can be understood that in other embodiments, the pipe clamp 5 is provided with an upper magnet, the pot body 2 is provided with a lower magnet, the lower magnet and the upper magnet are opposite to each other with the same pole and drive the pipe clamp 5 through the mutually repelling magnetic force. By driving the pipe clamp 5 through the mutually repelling magnetic force, the pipe clamp 5 does not need to be extended into the cooking cavity 200, which can prevent the pipe clamp 5 from contacting the oil smoke, reduce the sanitary dead corners, and reduce the cleaning workload.

[0047] The pipe clamp 5 extends into the cooking cavity 200. At this time, the pipe clamp 5 is in a state of clamping the water outlet pipe 4. Whether the pot body 2 abuts against the pipe clamp 5 to generate a force or the magnet generates a mutually repelling magnetic force, the pipe clamp 5 can be driven in time to move and loosen the water outlet pipe 4, so that the water outlet pipe 4 can discharge water in time.

[0048] In addition to using the support table 111, in other embodiments, the pipe clamp 5 includes a dynamic clamp body and a static clamp body, the static clamp body is fixed to the machine body 1, the dynamic clamp body is hinged to the static clamp body, the water outlet pipe 4 passes between the dynamic clamp body and the static clamp body, the dynamic clamp body is closed relative to the static clamp body to clamp the water outlet pipe 4, and the driving member drives the dynamic clamp body to open relative to the static clamp body to loosen the water outlet pipe 4. The static clamp body is fixed to the machine body 1, providing a fixed support. When the dynamic clamp body is closed, the water outlet pipe 4 is clamped and closed to prevent water from dripping in; and when the driving member drives the dynamic clamp body to open relative to the static clamp body, the water outlet pipe 4 is loosened to allow water to flow out, and accurate control of the opening and closing state of the water outlet pipe 4 can be achieved. The water outlet pipe 4 passes between the dynamic clamp body and the static clamp body, and the dynamic clamp body and the static clamp body can be used for limiting, effectively preventing the water outlet pipe 4 from abnormal displacement during movement and causing it to be unable to be used normally. In addition, without the need for the support table 111, the position selection of the pipe clamp 5 can be more flexible.

[0049] In addition, in addition to the air fryer with a detachable pot body 2, there is also a flip-top air fryer. In this type of air fryer, the body 1 includes a body and a head, the pot body 2 is placed in the body, the driving member is the pot body 2 or the body, the head cover is closed on the body to close the cooking cavity 200 and allows the pot body 2 or the body to act on the clamping member 5 to drive the clamping member 5 to loosen the water outlet pipe 4.

[0050] In addition to using the pot body 2, it can be understood that in other embodiments, the driving part is an electromagnet, the body 1 is provided with a control circuit board and a trigger switch, the control circuit board is electrically connected to the trigger switch and the electromagnet respectively, and the trigger switch is used to send a trigger signal to the control circuit board after the cooking cavity 200 is closed, and the control circuit board controls the action of the electromagnet according to the trigger signal to drive the pipe clamping part 5 to loosen the water outlet pipe 4. Such a driving method is applicable to both pull-out type air fryers and flip-top type air fryers.

[0051] Whether driven by the pot body 2 or the machine body, or controlled by an electromagnet, the water flow can be precisely controlled. This design ensures that the timing of water dripping and stopping is accurate during the cooking process, thereby improving the controllability of the cooking process.

[0052] In addition to the above-mentioned preferred embodiments, the present invention also has other implementation modes. Based on the embodiments in the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making any creative work are within the scope of protection requested by the present invention.
