Description

Technical Field

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

[0002] At present, the air fryer in the related technology is equipped with electric heating tubes and fan blades on the lid. The electric heating tubes heat slowly and need to be preheated and wait. It usually takes 3-5 minutes to reach the cooking temperature, resulting in a long cooking time in the entire cooking process, affecting the user experience. Utility Model Content

[0003] The embodiments of the utility model are intended to solve at least one of the technical problems existing in the prior art.

[0004] To this end, a first aspect of an embodiment of the utility model provides an air fryer.

[0005] In view of this, according to the first aspect of an embodiment of the utility model, an air fryer is provided, which includes: an equipment body; a pot assembly, which is arranged on the equipment body, and the pot assembly is provided with a cooking cavity; a heating assembly, which is arranged on the equipment body, and the heating assembly is used to heat at least a part of the pot assembly; an airflow generating element, which is arranged on the equipment body and is opposite to the open end of the pot assembly, and the airflow generating element can generate airflow in the cooking cavity.

[0006] The air fryer provided in the embodiment of the utility model includes an equipment body, a pot assembly, a heating assembly and an airflow generating element. Specifically, the pot assembly is arranged on the equipment body, and the pot assembly is provided with a cooking cavity. It can be understood that the cooking cavity can accommodate food.

[0007] Optionally, the pot assembly is disposed on the device body in a removable manner. Specifically, when food needs to be heated and cooked, the food can be placed in the cooking cavity of the pot assembly, and the pot assembly containing the food is placed in the receiving cavity of the device body, and the heating component is started to heat and cook the food in the cooking cavity. When the food cooking cavity is completed, the pot assembly can be removed from the device body to take out the food in the pot assembly.

[0008] The heating component can make at least a part of the pot component heat up, that is, when the heating component is started, the pot component itself can be heated to heat and cook the food in the cooking cavity. Compared with the related art of heating the pot body by a heating device to achieve the heating of the food in the pot body, it can make the food directly contact the heat source, improve the heat transfer efficiency, and thus improve the heating effect.

[0009] In addition, since the pot assembly itself can generate heat, it can be used for cooking, frying, grilling, hot pot or boiling water, etc., which broadens the use functions of the air fryer. This allows the air fryer to be used in a variety of different functional scenarios in the kitchen, enriching the diversity of cooking functions and improving the user experience.

[0010] It is understandable that when the heating component starts working, the pot component itself generates heat and heats the food in the cooking cavity, the temperature of the upper surface and the inside of the food is lower than the temperature of the outer side and the lower surface of the food. That is to say, during the cooking process, the heat required for the upper surface and the inside of the food needs to be transferred from the outside to the inside, which makes the time required to reach the cooking temperature longer, thereby making the entire cooking time of the air fryer longer.

[0011] The airflow generating element is arranged on the device body, and the airflow generating element can generate airflow in the cooking cavity. That is to say, when the airflow generating element starts working, there is airflow flowing in the cooking cavity, and the airflow can take away the heat generated by the cookware assembly during the flow, and form a hot air flow in the cooking cavity, that is, a hot air circulation is formed in the cooking cavity, which can greatly shorten the time required to reach the cooking temperature, improve cooking efficiency, reduce the heating duty cycle, reduce heat energy loss, thereby shortening the cooking time of the air fryer and saving energy.

[0012] In addition, the open end of the pot assembly is communicated with the cooking cavity, that is, the open end of the pot assembly is the opening end of the pot assembly, and the user can take and put food through the open end of the pot assembly.

[0013] The airflow generating element is arranged opposite to the open end of the cookware assembly, that is, the airflow generated by the airflow generating element can be blown directly into the cooking cavity through the open end, thereby significantly increasing the airflow velocity in the cooking cavity, allowing the heat generated by the cookware assembly to be quickly dissipated, promoting the hot air circulation in the cooking cavity, further shortening the time required to reach the cooking temperature, improving the cooking efficiency, and thereby shortening the cooking time of the air fryer.

[0014] Optionally, at least a portion of the airflow generating element extends into the cooking cavity, that is, at least a portion of the airflow generating element is located in the cooking cavity, thereby significantly increasing the airflow velocity in the cooking cavity, allowing the heat generated by the cookware assembly to be quickly dissipated, promoting hot air circulation in the cooking cavity, further shortening the time required to reach the cooking temperature, improving cooking efficiency, and thereby shortening the cooking time of the air fryer.

[0015] Optionally, the airflow generating member includes a motor and blades, and the motor and the blades are connected. When driven by the motor, the blades rotate, thereby generating airflow in the cooking cavity.

[0016] In addition, the air fryer provided according to the above technical solution of the utility model also has the following additional technical features:

[0017] In some technical solutions, optionally, the heating assembly includes an electromagnetic component, the electromagnetic component is arranged opposite to the cookware assembly, and at least a portion of the cookware assembly has magnetic conductivity.

[0018] In this technical solution, it is defined that the heating component includes an electromagnetic component. Specifically, at least a portion of the pot component has magnetic conductivity, and the pot component and the electromagnetic component are arranged opposite to each other. It is understandable that when the electromagnetic component is energized, at least a portion of the pot component can generate heat, thereby achieving heating and cooking of the food in the cooking cavity through the heat generated by the pot component itself. Compared with the related art of heating the pot body by a heating device to achieve heating of the food in the pot body, this method can make the food directly contact the heat source, improve the heat transfer efficiency, and thus improve the heating effect.

[0019] In addition, since the pot assembly itself can generate heat, it can be used for cooking, frying, grilling, hot pot or boiling water, etc., which broadens the use functions of the air fryer. This allows the air fryer to be used in a variety of different functional scenarios in the kitchen, enriching the diversity of cooking functions and improving the user experience.

[0020] It is understandable that when the electromagnetic component is powered on, an alternating magnetic field can be generated, and under the action of the alternating magnetic field, the magnetically conductive pot assembly will generate heat. Through the interaction between the electromagnetic component and the magnetically conductive pot assembly, the temperature of the pot assembly can be rapidly increased in a short period of time, so that while the food is directly heated, the airflow generated by the airflow generating component forms a hot air circulation in the cooking cavity, thereby greatly shortening the time required to reach the cooking temperature, improving cooking efficiency, reducing the heating duty cycle, and reducing heat energy loss, thereby shortening the cooking time of the air fryer and saving energy.

[0021] In addition, electromagnetic heating has the characteristic of fast heating, which can meet the needs of rapid heat storage in the pot and shorten the cooking time. For some foods that are suitable for absorbing more heat in a short period of time, this type of pot meets this demand. At the same time, since no heat conduction is required, this heating method avoids the loss of heat during the conduction process and improves the energy utilization efficiency.

[0022] Optionally, the heating component further includes a power supply board. Specifically, the power supply board is electrically connected to the electromagnetic component to supply power to the electromagnetic component.

[0023] In some technical schemes, optionally, the cookware assembly includes a pot body, the pot body is provided with a cooking cavity, the pot body includes at least a pot bottom wall, a pot side wall connected to the pot bottom wall, and an object carrier; wherein at least one of the pot bottom wall, the pot side wall and the object carrier is magnetically conductive.

Compared with the related art of heating the pot body by a heating device to heat the food in the pot body, this method can make the food directly contact the heat source, improve the heat transfer efficiency, and thus improve the heating effect.

[0026] Moreover, since the pot itself can generate heat, it can be used for cooking, frying, grilling, hot pot or boiling water, etc., which broadens the use functions of the air fryer. Therefore, the air fryer can be applied to a variety of different functional scenarios in the kitchen, enriching the diversity of cooking functions and improving the user experience.

[0027] At the same time, the airflow generated by the airflow generating element forms a hot air circulation in the cooking cavity, which can greatly shorten the time required to reach the cooking temperature, improve cooking efficiency, reduce the heating duty cycle, reduce heat energy loss, and thus shorten the cooking time of the air fryer and save energy.

[0028] Optionally, the pot body is a magnetic conductive member.

[0029] Optionally, the pot body is made of magnetic conductive materials such as iron material that can be heated by electromagnetic force.

[0030] It is understandable that the user can place the food to be heated on the object carrier for heating. Specifically, the object carrier is detachably connected to the pot body, so that the object carrier is easy to disassemble and clean.

[0031] Optionally, when the object carrier is a magnetic conductive part, the pot body can be a magnetic conductive part or a non-magnetic conductive part. Specifically, when the object carrier is a magnetic conductive part, the pot body can be a non-metallic temperature-resistant, non-magnetic blocking material, such as glass. The specific setting can be made according to actual needs.

[0032] In some technical solutions, optionally, the heating component also includes a heat insulating member, and the heat insulating member is arranged between the cookware component and the electromagnetic member.

[0033] In this technical solution, it is defined that the heating assembly also includes a heat insulating member, and specifically, the heat insulating member is arranged between the pot assembly and the electromagnetic member. Specifically, when the power board supplies power to the electromagnetic member, the electromagnetic member generates an alternating magnetic field, and under the action of the alternating magnetic field, at least a part of the pot assembly generates heat to heat and cook the food in the cooking cavity. Since the food is in direct contact with the heat source, the heat transfer efficiency can be improved, thereby improving the heating effect.

[0034] By providing a heat insulating member between the cookware assembly and the electromagnetic member, the problem of heat generated by the cookware assembly itself being transferred to the electromagnetic member and thus affecting the performance of the electromagnetic member can be effectively reduced, thereby ensuring the service life of the electromagnetic member.

[0035] Optionally, the thermal insulation component includes a microcrystalline board. It is understandable that the microcrystalline board has good thermal insulation properties, which can effectively reduce the heat generated by the cookware assembly and transfer to the electromagnetic component, thereby ensuring the service life of the electromagnetic component and further ensuring the stability and reliability of the air fryer during operation.

Specifically, the first shell is connected to the second shell and encloses a mounting cavity, and the electromagnetic component is arranged in the mounting cavity, thereby providing an installation space for the electromagnetic component.

[0039] The first shell is provided with an escape opening, and the escape opening is communicated with the installation cavity, and the heat insulation member is provided at the escape opening of the first shell, so that when the electromagnetic member is energized, the generated alternating magnetic field can pass through the heat insulation member and act on the pot assembly with magnetic conductivity, so that the pot assembly heats up. In this way, the food in the cooking cavity is heated and cooked by the heat generated by the pot assembly itself. Since the food directly contacts the heat source, the heat transfer efficiency is improved, thereby improving the heating effect.

[0040] At the same time, the airflow generated by the airflow generating element forms a hot air circulation in the cooking cavity, which can greatly shorten the time required to reach the cooking temperature, improve cooking efficiency, reduce the heating duty cycle, reduce heat energy loss, and thus shorten the cooking time of the air fryer and save energy.

[0041] In addition, since the pot assembly itself can generate heat, it can be used for cooking, frying, grilling, hot pot or boiling water, etc., which broadens the use functions of the air fryer. This allows the air fryer to be used in a variety of different functional scenarios in the kitchen, enriching the diversity of cooking functions and improving the user experience.

[0043] In this technical solution, it is defined that the first shell is also provided with a mounting groove, specifically, the mounting groove is connected to the avoidance opening, and it can be understood that at least a portion of the mounting groove extends along the height direction of the device body. At least a portion of the heat insulating member is embedded in the mounting groove along the height direction of the device body, thereby reducing the space occupied by the heat insulating member in the height direction of the device body, thereby reducing the overall height of the air fryer, which is conducive to miniaturization of the air fryer.

However, the present invention may also be implemented in other ways different from those described herein. Therefore, the protection scope of the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.

[0085] Refer to the following Figures 1 to 11 The air fryer 100 provided according to some embodiments of the present invention is described.

[0086] In one embodiment according to the present application, Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, an air fryer 100 is proposed, which includes: an equipment body 110; a pot assembly 120, which is arranged on the equipment body 110, and the pot assembly 120 is provided with a cooking cavity 121; a heating assembly 130, which is arranged on the equipment body 110, and the heating assembly 130 is used to heat at least a part of the pot assembly 120; an airflow generating element 140, which is arranged on the equipment body 110 and is opposite to the open end 122 of the pot assembly 120, and the airflow generating element 140 can generate airflow in the cooking cavity 121.

[0087] The air fryer 100 provided in the embodiment of the utility model includes an equipment body 110, a pot assembly 120, a heating assembly 130 and an airflow generating element 140. Specifically, the pot assembly 120 is arranged on the equipment body 110, and the pot assembly 120 is provided with a cooking cavity 121. It can be understood that the cooking cavity 121 can accommodate food.

[0088] Optionally, the pot assembly 120 is disposed on the device body 110 in a removable manner. Specifically, when food needs to be heated and cooked, the food can be placed in the cooking cavity 121 of the pot assembly 120, and the pot assembly 120 containing the food is placed in the receiving cavity of the device body 110, and the heating component 130 is started to heat and cook the food in the cooking cavity 121. When the food cooking cavity 121 is completed, the pot assembly 120 can be removed from the device body 110 to take out the food in the pot assembly 120.

[0089] The heating component 130 can make at least a part of the pot component 120 generate heat. That is to say, when the heating component 130 starts working, the pot component 120 itself can generate heat to heat and cook the food in the cooking cavity 121. Compared with the related art of heating the pot body 123 by a heating device to achieve the heating of the food in the pot body 123, the food can be directly contacted with the heat source, thereby improving the heat transfer efficiency and thus improving the heating effect.

[0090] In addition, since the pot assembly 120 itself can generate heat, the pot assembly 120 can be used for cooking, frying, grilling, hot pot or boiling water, etc., which broadens the use functions of the air fryer 100, so that the air fryer 100 can be applied to a variety of different functional scenarios in the kitchen, enriching the diversity of cooking functions and improving the user experience.

[0091] The airflow generating element 140 is disposed on the device body 110, and the airflow generating element 140 can generate airflow in the cooking cavity 121, that is, when the airflow generating element 140 starts working, there is airflow flowing in the cooking cavity 121, and the airflow can take away the heat generated by the pot assembly 120 during the flow, and form a hot air flow in the cooking cavity 121, that is, a hot air circulation is formed in the cooking cavity 121, thereby greatly shortening the time required to reach the cooking temperature, improving cooking efficiency, reducing the heating duty cycle, reducing heat energy loss, and thereby shortening the cooking time of the air fryer 100 and saving energy.

[0092] In addition, the open end 122 of the pot assembly 120 is connected to the cooking cavity 121, that is, the open end 122 of the pot assembly 120 is the opening end of the pot assembly 120, and the user can take and put food through the open end 122 of the pot assembly 120.

[0093] The airflow generating element 140 is arranged opposite to the open end 122 of the pot assembly 120, that is, the airflow generated by the airflow generating element 140 can be directly blown into the cooking cavity 121 through the open end 122, thereby significantly increasing the airflow velocity in the cooking cavity 121, allowing the heat generated by the pot assembly 120 to be quickly dissipated, promoting the hot air circulation in the cooking cavity 121, further shortening the time required to reach the cooking temperature, improving the cooking efficiency, and thereby shortening the cooking time of the air fryer 100.

[0094] Optionally, at least a portion of the airflow generating element 140 extends into the cooking cavity 121, that is, at least a portion of the airflow generating element 140 is located in the cooking cavity 121, thereby significantly increasing the airflow velocity in the cooking cavity 121, allowing the heat generated by the pot assembly 120 to be quickly dissipated, promoting hot air circulation in the cooking cavity 121, further shortening the time required to reach the cooking temperature, improving cooking efficiency, and thereby shortening the cooking time of the air fryer 100.

[0095] Optionally, the airflow generating element 140 includes a motor and blades, and the motor and the blades are connected. When driven by the motor, the blades rotate, thereby generating airflow in the cooking cavity 121 .

[0096] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, in some embodiments, optionally, the heating assembly 130 includes an electromagnetic member 131, and the electromagnetic member 131 is arranged opposite to the cookware assembly 120, and at least a portion of the cookware assembly 120 has magnetic conductivity.

[0097] In this embodiment, it is defined that the heating assembly 130 includes an electromagnetic member 131. Specifically, at least a portion of the pot assembly 120 has magnetic conductivity, and the pot assembly 120 is arranged opposite to the electromagnetic member 131. It is understandable that when the electromagnetic member 131 is energized, at least a portion of the pot assembly 120 can generate heat, thereby achieving heating and cooking of the food in the cooking cavity 121 by the heat generated by the pot assembly 120 itself. Compared with the related art of heating the pot body 123 by a heating device to achieve heating of the food in the pot body 123, the food can be directly contacted with the heat source, thereby improving the heat transfer efficiency and thus improving the heating effect.

[0098] In addition, since the pot assembly 120 itself can generate heat, the pot assembly 120 can be used for cooking, frying, grilling, hot pot or boiling water, etc., which broadens the use functions of the air fryer 100, so that the air fryer 100 can be applied to a variety of different functional scenarios in the kitchen, enriching the diversity of cooking functions and improving the user experience.

[0099] It is understandable that when the electromagnetic element 131 is energized, an alternating magnetic field can be generated, and under the action of the alternating magnetic field, the magnetically conductive pot assembly 120 generates heat. Through the interaction between the electromagnetic element 131 and the magnetically conductive pot assembly 120, the temperature of the pot assembly 120 can be rapidly increased in a short period of time, so that while achieving direct contact heating of the food, the airflow generated by the airflow generating element 140 forms a hot air circulation in the cooking cavity 121, thereby greatly shortening the time required to reach the cooking temperature, improving cooking efficiency, reducing the heating duty cycle, reducing heat energy loss, and thus shortening the cooking time of the air fryer 100 and saving energy.

[0100] In addition, electromagnetic heating has the characteristic of fast heating, which can meet the needs of rapid heat storage in the pot and shorten the cooking time. For some foods that are suitable for absorbing more heat in a short period of time, this type of pot meets this demand. At the same time, since no heat conduction is required, this heating method avoids the loss of heat during the conduction process and improves the energy utilization efficiency.

[0101] Optionally, the heating component 130 further includes a power supply board. Specifically, the power supply board is electrically connected to the electromagnetic member 131 to supply power to the electromagnetic member 131 .

[0103] In this embodiment, it is defined that the pot assembly 120 includes a pot body 123. Specifically, the pot body 123 is provided with a cooking cavity 121, and the cooking cavity 121 is used to accommodate food.

[0104] The pot body 123 at least includes a pot bottom wall 1231, a pot side wall 1232 connected to the pot bottom wall 1231, and one of the three objects 124, and at least one of the pot bottom wall 1231, the pot side wall 1232, and the object carrier 124 has magnetic conductivity, that is, at least a part of the pot body 123 has magnetic conductivity, and when the electromagnetic element 131 is energized, at least one of the pot bottom wall 1231, the pot side wall 1232, and the object carrier 124 can generate heat, thereby achieving heating and cooking of the food in the cooking cavity 121 by the heat of the pot body 123 itself. Compared with the related art of heating the pot body 123 by a heating device to achieve heating of the food in the pot body 123, the food can be directly contacted with the heat source, thereby improving the heat transfer efficiency and thus improving the heating effect.

[0105] Moreover, since the pot body 123 itself can generate heat, the pot body 123 can be used for cooking, frying, grilling, hot pot or boiling water, etc., which broadens the use functions of the air fryer 100, so that the air fryer 100 can be applied to a variety of different functional scenarios in the kitchen, enriching the diversity of cooking functions and improving the user experience.

[0106] At the same time, the airflow generated by the airflow generating element 140 forms a hot air circulation in the cooking cavity 121, which can greatly shorten the time required to reach the cooking temperature, improve cooking efficiency, reduce the heating duty cycle, reduce heat energy loss, and thus shorten the cooking time of the air fryer 100 and save energy.

[0107] Optionally, the pot body 123 is a magnetic conductive member.

[0110] Optionally, when the object carrier 124 is a magnetic conductive part, the pot body 123 may be a magnetic conductive part or a non-magnetic conductive part. Specifically, when the object carrier 124 is a magnetic conductive part, the pot body 123 may be a non-metallic temperature-resistant, non-magnetic blocking material, such as glass. The specific configuration may be based on actual needs.

[0111] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 5 and Figure 7 As shown, in some embodiments, optionally, the heating assembly 130 further includes a heat insulating member 132 , and the heat insulating member 132 is disposed between the cookware assembly 120 and the electromagnetic member 131 .

Specifically, the heat insulating member 132 is disposed between the pot assembly 120 and the electromagnetic member 131. Specifically, when the power board supplies power to the electromagnetic member 131, the electromagnetic member 131 generates an alternating magnetic field. Under the action of the alternating magnetic field, at least a portion of the pot assembly 120 generates heat to heat and cook the food in the cooking cavity 121. Since the food is in direct contact with the heat source, the heat transfer efficiency can be improved, thereby improving the heating effect.

In this way, the food in the cooking cavity 121 is heated and cooked by the heat generated by the pot assembly 120 itself. Since the food directly contacts the heat source, the heat transfer efficiency is improved, thereby improving the heating effect.

[0119] At the same time, the airflow generated by the airflow generating element 140 forms a hot air circulation in the cooking cavity 121, which can greatly shorten the time required to reach the cooking temperature, improve cooking efficiency, reduce the heating duty cycle, reduce heat energy loss, and thus shorten the cooking time of the air fryer 100 and save energy.

[0120] In addition, since the pot assembly 120 itself can generate heat, the pot assembly 120 can be used for cooking, frying, grilling, hot pot or boiling water, etc., which broadens the use functions of the air fryer 100, so that the air fryer 100 can be applied to a variety of different functional scenarios in the kitchen, enriching the diversity of cooking functions and improving the user experience.
