[0037] In this embodiment, the hot air assembly is located on one side of the cooking cavity, specifically, the hot air assembly is located on the rear side of the cooking cavity, wherein the side where the opening is located is the front side, the side wall of the receiving plate 5 close to the hot air assembly is provided with an air outlet 5-1, and two or more air outlets 5-1 are provided to ensure the overall structural strength of the receiving plate 5, and the side wall of the cooking container 6 close to the hot air assembly is provided with a return air outlet 8. The hot air generated by the hot air assembly enters the cooking container 6 through the air outlet 5-1 and the air inlet, and when the hot air flows upward, the food in the cooking container 6 is heated, and then the hot air returns to the hot air assembly through the return air outlet 8, thereby forming a hot air circulation, improving the uniformity and heating effect of food cooking, and improving the taste of cooked food.

[0038] The collecting area 5-3 is in a U-shape as a whole, that is, the collecting area 5-3 is located at the front side and the left and right sides of the cooking cavity, and when hot air blows from the rear side to the air guide area 5-2, the food residues and grease on the air guide area 5-2 are blown into the collecting area 5-3, thereby improving the convenience of cleaning.

[0039] The body 1 is provided with an installation cavity, and the hot air assembly is provided in the installation cavity; the installation cavity is provided with a reflector 2, and the reflector 2 divides the installation cavity into a heating cavity connected to the cooking cavity and a cold air cavity for installing electronic components. The structure of the reflector 2 can reduce heat loss, improve the cooking effect of food, and at the same time reduce the ambient temperature of the electronic components, reduce the failure rate of the electronic components, and improve the service life of the electronic components and the food processor. Further, the reflector 2 is a metal plate, and the reflector 2 is inclined toward the cooking container 6 along the direction from bottom to top, the upper edge of the reflector 2 is higher than the upper edge of the cooking container 6, and the cross section of the reflector 2 is an arc bent toward the cooking container 6. The reflector 2 is set as an inclined arc plate to guide the hot air blown out of the cooking container 6 to the heating cavity, reduce heat loss, and improve the cooking effect.

[0040] Further, a protective cover 12 and an air guide plate 13 are provided on the outside of the fan 3, the protective cover 12 is arranged on the upper side and right side of the fan 3, a plurality of through holes are provided on the protective cover 12, the air guide plate 13 is arranged on the left side and lower side of the fan 3, the air guide plate 13 is an arc-shaped plate, the upper end of the reflecting plate 2 is connected to the upper end of the cooking cavity, and the lower end of the reflecting plate 2 is connected to the protective cover 12. The reflecting plate 2 cooperates with the air guide plate 13 to make the hot air flow along the set path, reduce heat loss, and improve food cooking efficiency.

[0041] Further, a notch is provided at the bottom of the cooking container 6, a supporting edge is provided at the notch, a detachable grill 7 is installed on the notch, and a plurality of air inlets are arranged on the grill 7. The grill 7 can be removed and cleaned conveniently, thereby improving the convenience of cleaning.

[0042] The air guide area 5-2 is inclined, and it is inclined upward along the path of the hot air to form an air guide surface. The inclination angle θ of the air guide surface is 3°-75°, preferably 30°-65°. When the inclination angle is less than 3°, the length of the air guide surface is long, the air guide effect is limited, and the volume of the cooking container is too large, which is not convenient for storage; when the inclination angle is greater than 75°, the height of the air guide surface is high, making the overall height of the food processor high and not convenient for storage. This inclination range can ensure the hot air diversion effect and make the food processor compact and convenient for storage.

[0043] The food processor further includes a partition plate 14, which includes a connected horizontal plate and a vertical plate, the vertical plate is arranged between the cooking container 6 and the protective cover 12, the height of the vertical plate is greater than the height of the lowest return air port 8, to prevent the hot air from directly entering the cooking container 6 through the return air port 8 and affecting the effect of hot air circulation, and a receiving space is formed between the horizontal plate and the bottom plate of the cooking cavity, and the heating element 4 is arranged in the receiving space. The hot air is made to flow along a set route, the hot air is guided, and the cooking efficiency of the food is improved.

[0044] An exhaust passage and an exhaust port 9 are provided above the machine body 1, and the exhaust port 9 is connected to the cooking cavity through the exhaust passage. A plurality of exhaust ports 9 are provided, and part of the hot air in the cooking cavity is guided out through the exhaust ports 9 to ensure normal cooking of food.

[0045] Furthermore, a plurality of heat dissipation holes 15 are provided at the bottom of the body 1 to reduce the temperature of the body 1 and avoid burns.

[0046] Optionally, the bottom surface of the receiving tray 5 is a plane, and an air guide member is installed on the bottom surface of the receiving tray 5. The air guide member is provided with an air guide area 5-2 inclined along the hot air path, which can also achieve the function of guiding the hot air.

[0048] Optionally, an air outlet 5-1 may be provided on the side wall of the receiving tray 5 close to the hot air assembly. The air outlet 5-1 extends along the width direction of the receiving tray 5, which can also achieve the function of allowing hot air to pass through and reduce processing costs.

[0049] In summary, by setting the hot air component on one side of the cooking cavity, the overall height of the processing machine is lowered to meet the storage needs of a space with a smaller height. By setting a receiving tray 5 at the lower end of the cooking container 6 and providing an air guide area 5-2 on the receiving tray 5, the air guide area 5-2 guides the hot air to the bottom of the cooking container 6, thereby improving the heating effect of the food at the bottom of the cooking container 6. The hot air continues to flow upward to heat the food in the cooking container 6, thereby improving the overall heating uniformity of the food and improving the cooking taste. The collection area 5-3 collects food residues and grease to improve the convenience of cleaning.

[0050] Example 2

[0051] like Figure 6 As shown, the difference from Example 1 is the position of the hot air component, the shape of the air guide area 5 - 2 and the inclusion of the hot air channel 16 , and the rest is the same as Example 1.

[0052] The hot air assembly is located above the cooking cavity, a hot air channel 16 is provided between the cooking container 6 and the machine body 1, a plurality of air inlets are provided at the bottom of the cooking container 6, and an air outlet 5-1 is provided on the side wall of the receiving plate 5. The hot air generated by the hot air assembly enters the cooking container 6 along the hot air channel 16, the air outlet 5-1 and the air inlet, heats the food in the cooking container 6, and then returns to the hot air assembly, thereby forming a hot air circulation, improving the uniformity and heating effect of food cooking, and improving the taste of food cooking. Since a plurality of air inlets are provided at the bottom of the cooking container 6, the effect of hot air flowing at the bottom of the cooking container 6 can be improved, thereby improving the heating effect of the food at the bottom, improving the uniformity of food heating, and improving the taste of food cooking.

[0053] Furthermore, the center of the receiving plate 5 bulges upward to form the air guide area 5-2, and the collecting area 5-3 surrounds the outside of the air guide area 5-2. The collecting area 5-3 can be circular, quadrilateral or polygonal. Food residues fall into the collecting area 5-3 along the air guide area 5-2, which can not only improve the convenience of cleaning, but also the air guide area 5-2 guides the hot air into the cooking container 6, thereby reducing heat loss and improving cooking efficiency.

[0054] In summary, by arranging the hot air component on the upper side of the cooking cavity, the length of the food processor is reduced and the occupied area is reduced. By arranging a hot air channel 16 between the cooking container 6 and the body 1, the hot air heats the side wall of the cooking container 6 during the flow, thereby improving the heating effect of the food. Under the guidance of the air guide area 5-2, the food at the bottom of the cooking container 6 is heated, thereby further improving the uniformity of food cooking and the cooking taste.

[0055] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention.
