Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of air fryers, in particular to an air fryer with a detachable heating component. Background Art

[0002] An air fryer is a kitchen cooking appliance that uses high-temperature air to fry food. The fat content of the food it produces is lower than that of ordinary fried food, and it is very popular among people. The heating components of the air fryer include motors, electric heating tubes, fans and other components. During the cooking process of food, the oil smoke and water vapor generated by the air fryer will enter the heating component and adhere to the surface of the electric heating tube or fan. However, the traditional heating component is usually fixed on the body of the air fryer as a whole and cannot be disassembled for cleaning. Therefore, the oil stains inside the heating component will accumulate more and more, which will eventually cause the air fryer to produce odor and affect people's dietary health.

[0003] In order to solve this problem, a Chinese patent with announcement number CN214387234U discloses a detachable heating component for an air fryer. The heating component of this solution is detachably arranged on the cover by means of fasteners and locks that cooperate with each other. At the same time, a power connector and a socket are used to connect the heating tube to the power supply, thereby realizing quick disassembly and assembly of the heating component and convenient cleaning of the inside of the heating component.

[0004] However, there are the following shortcomings in this solution: first, the cover in this solution is hinged to the top of the body of the air fryer, so when the heating component needs to be cleaned, the entire cover needs to be flipped up or removed, which is cumbersome to operate; second, the motor is equipped with a cooling fan in this solution, but after disassembly, the cooling fan is wrapped between the upper and lower shells, so the cooling fan cannot be cleaned, resulting in incomplete cleaning; third, the setting of the cover in this solution makes the structure of the air fryer more complicated and also affects the overall aesthetics of the air fryer.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0028] The specific implementation of the present invention is described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. In order to fully understand the present invention, many details are described below, but for those skilled in the art, the present invention can be implemented without these details.

[0029] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2An air fryer with a detachable heating component 2 comprises a body 1 and a heating component 2. The body 1 is provided with a cooking cavity 11 and a window 12 connected to the cooking cavity 11; the heating component 2 is detachably arranged in the window 12 for heating the cooking cavity 11. The utility model has a window 12 for installing the heating component 2 on the body 1. When cleaning is required, the heating component 2 can be directly removed from the window 12, which is simple and convenient to operate.

[0030] Reference Figure 2 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 Specifically, the heating assembly 2 includes a heating tube 21, a heat-averaging fan 22 and a fixed cover 23; the fixed cover 23 is detachably arranged in the window 12, and the bottom of the fixed cover 23 is provided with a heating tube 21 and a heat-averaging fan 22; the body 1 is provided with a motor 13 that is transmission-connected to the heat-averaging fan 22, and a connecting assembly (not shown in the figure) that is electrically connected to the heating tube 21. The heating tube 21 is used to heat the cooking cavity 11, and the heat-averaging fan 22 can improve the heat transfer efficiency and evenly transfer the heat of the heating tube 21 to every corner of the cooking cavity 11. The fixed cover 23 can play a role in supporting the heating tube 21 and the heat-averaging fan 22, making the installation and removal of the heating assembly 2 more convenient. Preferably, in this embodiment, the fixed cover 23 is designed as a reflective disk with a heat radiation reflective layer on the surface, and the reflective disk can reflect the heat of the heating tube 21 into the cooking cavity 11, thereby improving the heating efficiency and ensuring that the cooking cavity 11 is heated evenly.

[0031] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 3 The body 1 is also provided with a cooling fan 24 for dissipating heat from the motor 13. The cooling fan 24 is arranged on the top of the fixed cover 23, and the cooling fan 24 and the heat-averaging fan 22 are connected to the motor 13 through the same rotating shaft 241. Since the cooling fan 24 is arranged on the top of the fixed cover 23 and is coaxially connected with the heat-averaging fan 22, when the fixed cover 23 is taken out, the cooling fan 24 will be removed along with the heat-averaging fan 22 and the heating tube 21, so that the cooling fan 24 can be cleaned. Due to the obstruction of the fixed cover 23, less oil and dirt enter the cooling fan 24, but there will still be oil and dirt accumulation after long-term use. Therefore, the cooling fan 24 and the heating component 2 are designed as an integrated detachable structure, which helps to clean the oil and dirt more comprehensively and thoroughly.

[0032] Reference Figures 2 to 6In order to prevent the blades from being exposed and deformed by force, an upper protective cover 25 and a lower protective cover 26 are respectively provided above and below the fixed cover 23. Specifically, a first cavity for installing the cooling fan 24 is provided between the upper protective cover 25 and the fixed cover 23, and a plurality of first hollow portions 251 connected to the first cavity are provided in the middle of the upper protective cover 25; a second cavity for installing the heating pipe 21 and the cooling fan 24 is provided between the lower protective cover 26 and the fixed cover 23, and a plurality of second hollow portions 261 connected to the second cavity are provided in the middle of the lower protective cover 26. When cleaning, the cooling fan 24, the heat-averaging fan 22 and the heating pipe 21 can be cleaned through the first hollow portion 251 and the second hollow portion 261. The side wall of the upper protective cover 25 is provided with a plurality of heat dissipation holes 252, and the heat in the first cavity is discharged to the outside of the body 1 through the heat dissipation holes 252, thereby preventing the heat from accumulating in the body 1 and effectively protecting the motor 13.

[0033] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 5 The heating tube 21 is mounted on the fixed cover 23 through a plurality of L-shaped brackets 211 and is located below the heat-dissipating fan 22. The connection assembly includes a socket and a power connector that cooperate with each other. The cooking cavity 11 is provided with a socket, and the end of the heating tube 21 is provided with a power connector that extends to the outside of the fixed cover 23. When the fixed cover 23 is installed in the window 12, the power connector at the end of the heating tube 21 is inserted into the socket, thereby realizing circuit conduction.

[0034] Reference Figures 1 to 3 The main body 1 is provided with an independent installation cavity 14 above the cooking cavity 11, and is provided with an inspection cover 141 for closing the installation cavity 14; the motor 13 is arranged in the installation cavity 14 through the installation bracket, and the output shaft of the motor 13 is connected to the rotating shaft 241 through the clutch. Specifically, the clutch includes an upper clutch 131 and a lower clutch 132 that are meshed with each other. The upper clutch 131 is arranged at the end of the output shaft of the motor 13, and the lower clutch 132 is arranged at the end of the rotating shaft 241. When the fixed cover 23 is installed in the window 12, the upper clutch 131 and the lower clutch 132 are meshed with each other, and the motor 13 can drive the heat-averaging fan 22 and the heat-dissipating fan 24 to rotate. Since the inspection cover 141 is provided, each time the heating component 2 is installed or removed, the inspection cover 141 can be opened to lift the motor 13 upward, so as to more conveniently achieve the meshing or separation of the upper clutch 131 and the lower clutch 132. In other embodiments, the upper clutch 131 or the lower clutch 132 can also be set to a structure that can float up and down and automatically reset, or other installation methods can be adopted to ensure that the upper clutch 131 and the lower clutch 132 can automatically engage or disengage when installing or removing the heating component 2.

[0035] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 4Preferably, the opening of the cooking cavity 11 faces the front side of the body 1, and the fryer assembly 3 is installed in the cooking cavity 11; and the window 12 is opened at the rear side of the body 1, so it will not affect the appearance design of the front side of the body 1. Tracks 15 are provided on both sides of the interior of the body 1, and an annular boss 254 that cooperates with the track 15 is provided on the outer peripheral edge of the upper protective cover 25. The guiding and limiting functions can be achieved by setting the track 15 and the annular boss 254 that cooperate with each other, so that the fixed cover 23 can be quickly installed in the window 12. It should be noted that the window 12 in this embodiment is set at the rear side of the body 1, and the track 15 in the window 12 adopts a parallel track (that is, the track is extended along the width direction of the body 1), so the heating assembly can be installed horizontally. However, the protection scope of the utility model is not limited to this. In other embodiments, the window 12 can also be set at other positions such as the front side of the body 1 or the top of the body 1, and the installation method of the heating assembly can also adopt vertical sliding installation or inclined sliding installation. Those skilled in the art can make reasonable designs according to actual needs.

[0036] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 In order to facilitate the removal of the heating assembly 2, the upper protective cover 25 is further provided with recessed portions 253 on both sides of the heat dissipation hole 252.

[0037] The above is only a specific implementation method of the utility model, but the design concept of the utility model is not limited to this. Any non-substantial changes to the utility model using this concept shall be deemed as an infringement of the protection scope of the utility model.
