Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of household appliances, in particular to an air frying oven with a smoking function. Background Art

[0002] The air fryer is a kitchen appliance that has gained popularity in recent years. It uses hot air circulation technology to cook food without oil or with very little oil. This technology was originally derived from commercial deep frying technology, but in home appliances, it has been modified into a healthier cooking method. The air fryer uses a high-speed air circulation system to make the hot air flow quickly and evenly cover the surface of the food, simulating the effect of deep frying, making the food crispy on the outside while still moist on the inside.

[0003] Traditional air fryer ovens focus on providing a healthier cooking method to replace traditional deep frying. At the same time, due to their rapid heating and cooking capabilities, they are also gradually being used to bake foods, such as roast chicken, baked French fries, etc. These devices usually have temperature control and timing functions, which users can adjust according to the cooking needs of different foods.

[0004] However, while existing air fryer ovens provide healthy, low-fat cooking options, they also have some limitations, especially in terms of flavor innovation. One of the most obvious shortcomings is the lack of smoking function. Smoking is an ancient food seasoning and preservation technology that can give food a unique aroma and flavor. During the smoking process, the food will be exposed to the smoke produced by burning wood, and the compounds in the smoke will penetrate into the food, forming a unique smoky flavor that is loved by many consumers.

[0005] Although air fryer ovens are simple to operate, cook quickly and are easy to clean, they cannot provide the deep flavor of traditional smoking techniques, which means that consumers seeking to easily make smoked foods at home may need to purchase a dedicated smoker or use more traditional smoking methods, which not only increases the cost but also adds complexity to the cooking process.

[0031] The implementation modes of the present utility model are described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0032] like Figures 1 to 9 As shown, an air fryer oven with a smoking function in this embodiment includes a main body 1, a partition shell 2 is provided in the main body 1, a heating chamber 21 is provided in the partition shell 2, a smoking structure is provided between the main body 1 and the partition shell 2, the smoking structure includes a smoke delivery channel 3, an ignition device 4 and a smoking box 5, the smoking box 5 is used to carry fog-generating particles, a smoke outlet 51 communicated with the smoke delivery channel 3 is provided on the smoking box 5, a smoke inlet 22 communicated with the heating chamber 21 is provided on the partition shell 2, and the smoke delivery channel 3 is communicated with the smoke inlet 22.

[0033] Specifically, a smoking structure is provided between the main body 1 and the partition shell 2, so that the air fryer oven is provided with a smoking function. When the smoking function is needed, the fog-generating particles in the smoking box 5 are ignited by the ignition device 4 to generate smoke, and then the smoke is guided to the smoke delivery channel 3 through the smoke outlet 51 on the smoking box 5, and then the smoke delivery channel 3 guides the smoke to the heating chamber 21 through the smoke inlet 22, so that the food absorbs the smoke during the cooking process, forming a unique smoked flavor, so that users can use the air fryer oven to make dishes with traditional smoked flavor at home.

[0034] Through this design, the air fryer oven can simultaneously utilize hot air circulation and smoking cooking methods, which not only broadens the flavor levels of food, but also increases the diversity of cooking methods. Users can choose whether to use the smoking function according to their taste preferences, or combine the two.

[0035] Specifically, the main structure of the air fryer oven is divided into two main parts, a main body and a partition shell, wherein the partition shell contains a heating cavity for placing food for heating and cooking. This partition design helps to improve thermal efficiency and provides space for the integration of a smoking structure.

[0036] like Figures 1 to 9 As shown, the fumigation box 5 of this embodiment is provided with a first air inlet hole 52 , and the first air inlet hole 52 is located below the smoke inlet hole 22 .

[0037] Specifically, the first air inlet hole 52 can provide necessary oxygen for the flame generated by the ignition device 4 igniting the mist-generating particles, which helps to maintain stable generation of smoke.

[0038] Furthermore, due to the rising property of hot air, setting the first air inlet 52 below the smoke inlet 22 can help the smoke to enter the smoke delivery channel 3 more smoothly through the smoke outlet 51, and then enter the heating chamber 21 through the smoke inlet 22. In addition, by adjusting the size and position of the first air inlet 52, the amount of air entering the fumigation box 5 can be controlled, thereby adjusting the density and flow of the smoke, providing users with more refined control of the fumigation effect.

[0039] like Figures 1 to 9 As shown, the fumigation box 5 of this embodiment is adjacent to the ignition device 4 and arranged at an interval. The fumigation box 5 is provided with a heating hole 53, and the heating hole 53 can transfer the heat of the ignition device 4 to the fumigation box 5 to ignite the fog-generating particles in the fumigation box 5, thereby quickly igniting the fog-generating particles and generating smoke.

[0040] Specifically, since the ignition device 4 and the smoke box 5 are adjacent and spaced apart, this design can prevent the ignition device from directly contacting the fog-generating particles in the smoke box 5, thereby controlling the ignition process, preventing the flames of the fog-generating particles from directly contacting the ignition device, and reducing safety risks.

[0041] Furthermore, the design of heat transfer through the heating hole 53 allows for more detailed control over the smoke generation process, such as controlling the heat transfer rate by adjusting the power of the ignition device, thereby controlling the speed and concentration of smoke generation.

[0042] Furthermore, the design in which the ignition device 4 and the fumigation box 5 are adjacent to each other and spaced apart can prevent the ashes after the combustion of the mist-generating particles from affecting the ignition device 4 (such as excessive ashes accumulating on the surface of the ignition device 4), making it easier to clean and maintain the ignition device and the fumigation box 5.

[0043] Preferably, the ignition device 4 of this embodiment is a U-shaped heating rod, which has good heating efficiency and durability.

[0044] Preferably, in addition to the U-shaped heating rod, the ignition device 4 may also adopt a heating wire, a flame igniter, a thermocouple igniter, a microwave igniter and the like. A suitable ignition device 4 may be selected according to actual design requirements.

[0045] like Figures 1 to 9 As shown, in this embodiment, a mounting portion 11 is detachably connected to the side wall of the main body 1 , and the mounting portion 11 is used to mount the smoking box 5 , and the ignition device 4 is mounted to the outer side wall of the partition shell 2 .

[0046] The design of the detachable assembly part 11 makes the maintenance of the fumigation box 5 easier. The fumigation box 5 can be detached from the main body 1 through the assembly part 11 to perform the process of cleaning and adding fog-generating particles.

[0047] Specifically, the detachable design facilitates the user to thoroughly clean the fumigation box, maintain the best working condition of the fumigation box, and protect the device from long-term accumulation of residues and ash. In addition, this design also allows the fumigation box 5 to be upgraded or replaced with different models of fog-generating particles as needed to adapt to different usage requirements or fumigation effects.

[0048] On the other hand, the ignition device 4 is mounted on the outer side wall of the partition shell 2. The partition shell 2 provides thermal isolation for the ignition device, protects the main body 1 from thermal damage, and also ensures that the heat generated during the smoking process will not directly affect the main body structure.

[0049] Moreover, the outer side wall position of the partition shell 2 can support the ignition device, enhance its stability, and thus improve the safety of use.

[0050] Furthermore, placing the ignition device 4 on the outer side wall of the partition shell 2 makes it easier to access the power supply and control circuits.

[0051] like Figures 1 to 9 As shown, the assembly portion 11 of this embodiment includes an assembly box 111 and an assembly port 112, wherein the assembly port 112 is disposed on the side wall of the main body 1, and the assembly box 111 can be detachably connected to the assembly port 112, and a first opening 113 and a second opening 114 are disposed on the side wall of the assembly box 111, wherein the first opening 113 corresponds to the smoke outlet 51, and the second opening 114 can allow the fumigation box 5 to enter and exit the assembly box 111.

[0052] Specifically, the assembly port 112 is provided on the side wall of the main body 1, and this assembly port is equivalent to an interface or a slot, which is used to connect with the assembly box 111. Since it is a detachable connection, this provides flexibility, which is convenient for the user to separate the fumigation box 5 from the main body 1 for cleaning, maintenance or replacement. The assembly box 111 is used to store and fix the fumigation box 5. The detachable feature means that the user can easily take out or insert the entire assembly box with the fumigation box into the main body 1.

[0053] Furthermore, the first opening 113 is provided on the side wall of the assembly box 111, corresponding to the smoke outlet 51 in the fumigation box 5. The design of this opening ensures that the smoke generated by the fumigation box 5 can smoothly flow into the interior of the main body 1, and then be further transmitted to the predetermined fumigation area. The second opening 114 is also located on the side wall of the assembly box 111. This opening is of appropriate size, allowing the fumigation box 5 to easily enter or move out of the assembly box. This opening can be used as a passage for assembling or removing the fumigation box in actual use.

[0054] In general, the design of the assembly portion 11 in this embodiment takes into account the convenience of the user in actual operation, allowing the user to easily replace or maintain the fumigation box 5 without the need for a complicated disassembly process. At the same time, it ensures the effective transmission of smoke during the fumigation process and optimizes the positioning and fixation of the fumigation box 5 in the main body 1 through the structure of the assembly box 111.

[0055] Preferably, the first opening 113 of this embodiment is connected to the second opening 114 to form an L-shaped opening, which can facilitate the loading and unloading of the fumigation box 5 on the assembly box 111, and the first opening 113 will not block the smoke outlet 51, the first air inlet 52 and the heating hole 53.

[0056] Specifically, the L-shaped opening makes it easier to insert or remove the assembly box 111 from the side of the smoke box 5. The right-angle design means that the smoke box can be inserted along one axis and then fall into place along the other axis, which reduces the space required for insertion and simplifies the operation. By ensuring that the first opening 113 does not block the smoke outlet 51, smoke can be introduced into the area that needs to be smoked without obstacles.

[0057] Similarly, the first opening 113 is designed not to block the first air inlet 52, ensuring that sufficient air flows into the interior of the fumigation box 5, helping the fuel (such as wood chips or fumigation sheets) to fully burn and generate smoke, thereby ensuring the fumigation effect;

[0058] Likewise, the first opening 113 is designed not to block the heating hole 53, thereby ensuring that the smoke box can obtain the necessary heat to effectively generate smoke while avoiding heat loss.

[0059] Preferably, the assembly box 111 of this embodiment is further provided with a first limiting protrusion 1131 , which is located at the first opening 113 and can abut against the side wall of the fumigation box 5 to prevent the fumigation box 5 from falling out of the first opening 113 .

[0060] By providing a first limiting protrusion 1131 at the first opening 113, when the fumigating box 5 is placed in the assembly box 111, the protrusion can abut against the side wall of the fumigating box. Such contact can effectively prevent the fumigating box from accidentally falling out of the opening during operation (such as when moving the fumigating equipment), thereby ensuring the continuity and safety of the fumigating process.

[0061] In addition, the first limiting protrusion 1131 can also increase the stability of the fumigation box 5 in the assembly box 111. During the operation of the air fryer oven, vibration may occur. The design of the first limiting protrusion 1131 can ensure that the fumigation box can remain fixed under such conditions to avoid position changes affecting the fumigation effect.

[0062] Preferably, a second limiting protrusion is provided on the side of the assembly opening 112 facing the partition shell 2 in this embodiment, and the second limiting protrusion is arranged adjacent to the second opening 114 to prevent the fumigating box 5 from escaping from the assembly box 111 .

[0063] Specifically, by providing a second limiting protrusion adjacent to the second opening 114 on the assembly port 112, when the fumigation box 5 tends to fall out of the second opening 114, the fumigation box 5 can be abutted against the second limiting protrusion, thereby restricting the fumigation box 5 in the assembly box 111, which can effectively prevent the fumigation box 5 from accidentally falling off during use, especially when the air fryer is moved or during the fumigation process due to the vibration of the air fryer. Such a design ensures the stability of the fumigation box in the assembly box 111, thereby ensuring the continuity and safety of the fumigation process.

[0064] Furthermore, by providing the second limiting protrusion on the assembly opening 112, the second limiting protrusion can prevent the fumigation box 5 from falling off and ensure that the second limiting protrusion will not hinder the assembly box and the fumigation box when the user installs or removes the assembly box and the fumigation box.

[0065] Preferably, a limiting frame 115 is provided on the side of the assembly opening 112 facing the partition shell 2 in this embodiment, and the second limiting protrusion is a part of the limiting frame 115, so that the limiting frame 115 can limit the fumigation box 5 while also limiting the assembly box 111 to avoid position displacement of the assembly box 111, and the bottom of the limiting frame 115 can also support the assembly box 111.

[0066] Specifically, the limiting frame 115 not only limits the smoking box 5 to prevent it from accidentally falling off during use, but also limits the assembly box 111 to ensure that it will not be displaced due to improper operation or equipment vibration. This double protection significantly improves the stability and safety of the entire smoking process.

[0067] By designing the bottom of the limiting frame 115 to be able to support the assembly box 111, not only the stability of the assembly box is increased, but also the assembly box is protected from excessive wear.

[0068] Furthermore, the existence of the limiting frame 115 simplifies the assembly process. When installing the assembly box 111, the user can directly use the limiting frame as a reference to quickly and accurately complete the installation, thereby improving the convenience of operation.

[0069] Preferably, the smoke outlet 51 of this embodiment is located above the heating hole 53 , and the first air inlet 52 is located below the heating hole 53 .

[0070] Specifically, by placing the smoke outlet above the heating hole, the smoke can naturally flow along the rising trend of hot air, thereby improving the distribution efficiency of the smoke in the smoking chamber. At the same time, the first air inlet hole below the heating hole can introduce cold air, which helps to promote convection circulation in the smoking chamber and ensure uniform distribution of air and smoke.

[0071] This layout can make heating more efficient because the hot air naturally rises and carries the smoke to a higher position in the smoking room without the need for additional energy to promote the movement of the smoke. Therefore, this design can save energy to a certain extent.

[0072] Specifically, the smoke outlet is located above the heating hole, and the smoke generated by heating will rise rapidly and be discharged through the smoke outlet, which can reduce the time the smoke stays near the heating source, thereby reducing the possibility of coking near the heating hole due to overheating of the smoke.

[0073] Preferably, there are multiple first air inlet holes 52, which are densely arranged in the bottom area of ​​the side wall of the fumigation box 5; by densely arranging multiple air inlet holes in the bottom area of ​​the side wall of the fumigation box, the air circulation can be greatly improved. This design is conducive to the uniform entry of cold air, ensuring more sufficient gas exchange inside the fumigation box, thereby improving the fumigation effect.

[0074] In addition, the densely arranged multiple air inlet holes help the cold air to evenly enter the fumigation box. The injection of this cold air can effectively reduce the phenomenon of local excessive temperature.

[0075] Since the air inlet is located at the bottom, the cold air enters and forms effective convection with the hot air generated by heating. This convection not only helps to evenly distribute the temperature, but also can better drive the smoke in the fumigation box, speed up the air flow in the fumigation box, and speed up the rate at which smoke is discharged from the smoke outlet.

[0076] Preferably, the heating holes 53 are multiple in number and are evenly arranged in the middle area of ​​the side wall of the smoking box 5;

[0077] Evenly arranged multiple heating holes can ensure a more even heat distribution inside the smoke box. This is conducive to uniform heating of the smoke particles and avoids uneven smoke generation due to local overheating.

[0078] Specifically, compared with a single large heating hole, multiple small heating holes can more effectively utilize heat energy, promote rapid propagation and uniform distribution of heat in the smoking box, and thus improve the overall thermal efficiency.

[0079] Specifically, compared with setting up one large heating hole, the design of multiple small heating holes distributed in the middle of the side wall can enhance the structural stability of the fumigation box to a certain extent and reduce the risk of deformation caused by local high temperature.

[0080] Preferably, the number of the smoke outlet hole 51 is one, and the width of the smoke outlet hole 51 is similar to the width of the fumigation box 5 .

[0081] Specifically, a single smoke outlet can discharge smoke in a concentrated manner, and the width of the smoke outlet is similar to the width of the smoke box, which means that the smoke can be discharged from the smoke box in a shorter time.

[0082] like Figures 1 to 9 As shown, the smoke delivery channel 3 of this embodiment is covered on the outside of the partition shell 2, the ignition device 4 and the fumigation box 5 are both located in the smoke delivery channel 3, and the side wall of the main body 1 is provided with a second air inlet 12 communicated with the smoke delivery channel 3.

[0083] like Figures 1 to 9 As shown, in this embodiment, an air supply device is provided on the smoke inlet hole 22 , and the air supply device can guide the smoke in the smoke supply channel 3 into the heating chamber 21 through the smoke inlet hole 22 .

[0084] like Figures 1 to 9 As shown, a heating component 23 is further provided in the heating chamber 21 of the present embodiment. The heating component 23 is located below the air supply device and can heat the smoke.

[0085] Specifically, the outer wall of the partition shell 2 of this embodiment and the inner wall of the main body 1 are combined to form a smoke delivery channel 3 (that is, the smoke delivery channel 3 is covered on the outer side of the partition shell 2). The ignition device 4 and the fumigation box 5 are both located on one side of the smoke delivery channel 3. The side wall of the main body 1 is provided with a second air inlet 12 which is communicated with the smoke delivery channel 3. The smoke inlet 22 is located at the top of the partition shell 2. An air supply device is provided on the smoke inlet 22. The air supply device can guide the airflow and / or smoke in the smoke delivery channel 3 through the smoke inlet 22 to the heating chamber 21. A heating component 23 is provided in the heating chamber 21, and the heating component 23 can heat the airflow and / or smoke.

[0086] Specifically, such a design is adopted, through the air suction channel and air supply device of the air fryer itself, combined with the smoking structure, so that the air fryer has a smoking function, that is, the smoke supply channel 3 is the air suction channel in the air fryer or a part of the air suction channel, and the baking function and the smoking function of the air fryer share a set of air suction channel and air supply device;

[0087] When the air fryer oven performs the baking function, the air supply device generates negative pressure in the smoke supply channel 3, and draws the air flow into the smoke supply channel 3 through the second air inlet hole 12, and then guides the air flow through the smoke supply channel 3 to the air supply device, and the air supply device blows the air flow to the heating component 23 through the smoke inlet hole 22, and the heating component 23 heats the air flow, thereby realizing the baking function;

[0088] When the fumigation function is required, the fumigation structure is started, the ignition device performs heating work, and the heat is transmitted to the fumigation box 5 through the heating hole 53 to ignite the fog-generating particles. The airflow enters the fumigation box 5 through the first air inlet hole 52 to provide oxygen for the combustion of the fog-generating particles, so that the fog-generating particles are fully burned to generate smoke. The smoke can be discharged from the fumigation box 5 through the smoke outlet hole 51 and the heating hole 53. After the smoke enters the smoke delivery channel 3, it is guided to the air supply device along with the flow of the airflow. The air supply device then blows the airflow and smoke to the heating component 23 and the heating chamber through the smoke inlet hole 22, thereby realizing the fumigation function.

[0089] Specifically, this design enables the air fryer oven to have the traditional hot air circulation baking function by sharing the air suction and supply system, while also providing a smoking function, providing users with more diverse cooking options and making the structure of the air fryer oven more compact, effectively reducing its size.

[0090] Specifically, the outer wall of the partition shell 2 and the inner wall of the main body 1 enclose a smoke delivery channel 3, which can also make the air fryer oven have a heat insulation effect. Such a design can effectively block the heat from being directly transferred to the main body, thereby reducing heat loss and protecting the outer shell of the device from overheating due to internal high temperature.

[0091] Specifically, the insulation structure helps maintain the temperature of the internal heating chamber, reducing energy consumption, thereby improving the energy efficiency of the grilling or smoking function, and the outer shell will not overheat due to the high temperature inside, which means that during operation, the surface temperature that the user contacts remains within a safe range, preventing scalding accidents.

[0092] Preferably, the heating component 23 can heat the smoke, and the aroma components in the smoke can be activated to enhance the smoky flavor of the food.

[0093] Specifically, the heating assembly 23 includes heating rods disposed at the top and bottom of the heating chamber, and the air supply device blows air to the heating rods at the top of the heating chamber.

[0094] Specifically, the smoking structure of the air fryer oven in the present application is aimed at thin slices of meat (such as bacon, cured meat slices, etc.), which require a small amount of smoking and have high safety performance.

[0095] Specifically, in some other embodiments, the air fryer oven does not share the air suction and air supply systems, and the hot air circulation baking structure and the smoking structure of the air fryer oven are two sets of independent structures;

[0096] Specifically, the smoke delivery channel 3 is covered on the outside of the partition shell 2, the ignition device 4 and the fumigation box 5 are both located in the smoke delivery channel 3, and the side wall of the main body 1 is provided with a second air inlet 12 communicated with the smoke delivery channel 3. Such a design can ensure that there is sufficient airflow inside the smoke delivery channel 3, which is conducive to maintaining combustion and smoke generation during the fumigation process.
