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.

[0031] Embodiment 1:

[0032] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 3A vertical waffle maker includes a body 1 formed by hingedly connecting a first baking tray 11 and a second baking tray 12. The body 1 has a baking cavity. The top of the body 1 is provided with a feed port 10 connected to the baking cavity. The bottom of the body 1 is provided with a support part for enabling the vertical placement. The utility model realizes the vertical placement of the body 1 by providing a support part at the bottom of the body 1, thereby eliminating the bracket and the pivot assembly used to support the vertical waffle maker in the prior art. The structure is simpler and more optimized, which helps to reduce production costs and improve production and assembly efficiency.

[0033] Reference Figures 1 to 3 In practical applications, the support portion is provided in the following two ways: first, a support portion is provided only at the bottom of the first baking tray 11 or the second baking tray 12; second, a support portion is provided at the bottom of both the first baking tray 11 and the second baking tray 12. In order to simplify the structure, the present embodiment adopts the inventive concept of a single support portion, and a support portion is provided only at the bottom of the first baking tray 11 or the second baking tray 12. Since the first baking tray 11 includes a first baking tray body 111 and a first shell 112 embedded outside the first baking tray body 111, and the second baking tray 12 includes a second baking tray body 121 and a second shell 122 embedded outside the second baking tray body 121, the support portion can be provided at the bottom of the first shell 112 or the second shell 122, or at the bottom of the first baking tray body 111 or the second baking tray body 121.

[0034] Reference Figures 1 to 3 As a preferred solution: the support portion of this embodiment is a support frame arranged at the bottom of the first shell 112, and the support frame is an L-shaped support frame 13, one end of the L-shaped support frame 13 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the first shell 112, and the other end extends to the bottom of the second baking tray 12, thereby forming a stable triangular support structure, ensuring that the body 1 can be firmly and reliably placed upright on the desktop.

[0035] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 3 The machine body 1 is provided with a hinge 14 that hinges the first baking tray 11 and the second baking tray 12 to each other. In practical applications, the hinge 14 can be arranged at the bottom of the machine body 1 or the side of the machine body 1 according to the specific structures of the first baking tray 11 and the second baking tray 12. As a preferred solution, in this embodiment, the first baking tray 11 and the second baking tray 12 are both designed as semicircular structures, and the hinge 14 is arranged at the bottom of the first baking tray 11 and the second baking tray 12. The hinge 14 can realize the mutual opening and closing of the first baking tray 11 and the second baking tray 12, so as to facilitate taking out the dough or cleaning the baking trays.

[0036] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 3The hinge 14 in this embodiment includes a first semi-axis 141, a second semi-axis 142, a first shaft sleeve 143 and a second shaft sleeve 144.

When the waffle maker is working, the first baking tray 11 and the second baking tray 12 are locked by the buckle assembly 153. At this time, the batter is evenly poured into the baking cavity from the feed port 10 to make the surface of the baked pancake full. After the pancake is fried and baked, the buckle assembly 153 is reset to unlock the first baking tray 11 and the second baking tray 12 from each other. The second handle 152 is used to flip the second baking tray 12 downward by 90° to take out the fried pancake.

[0038] Reference Figures 1 to 3 After the pancakes are fried and baked, since the temperatures of the first baking tray 11 and the second baking tray 12 are relatively high, in order to protect the tabletop, the outer surfaces of the first shell 112 and the second shell 122 are each provided with a support block 113. When the machine body 1 is turned on, the support block 113 of the second baking tray 12 can form a support platform with the L-shaped support frame 13, so that the second baking tray 12 is suspended in the air, thereby avoiding direct contact with the tabletop and causing damage to the tabletop.

[0039] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2The first grill body 111 and the second grill body 121 are both provided with a heating component, the first handle 151 and the second handle 152 both include a handle body 154 and a handle cover 155, there is a cavity between the handle body 154 and the handle cover 155, which can be used to arrange the power cord and other devices of the heating component, the handle body 154 is provided with a power switch 156 and a power indicator light 157 connected to the heating component, and a power cord outlet.
