Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of cooking, in particular to an improved air fryer. Background Art

[0002] Air fryers are commonly used cooking utensils in people's lives. They mainly use hot air to cook food. At the same time, the hot air blows away the moisture on the surface of the food, forming a crispy surface on the food, locking the moisture inside the ingredients to make the ingredients achieve an effect and taste similar to deep-frying.

[0003] The air fryers on the market are all equipped with a pull-out frying basket. Since the pull-out frying basket is a fixed structure, the food will not be turned over during the cooking process, which will cause uneven heating of the upper and lower parts of the food, resulting in poor cooking effect of the food. The food needs to be turned over manually and then heated again to achieve the fried effect and taste. The operation is very troublesome and cannot guarantee a good frying effect. To address the above-mentioned defects, the existing technology provides a rotating cage in the frying basket, and the food is placed in the rotating cage. During the cooking process, the rotating cage is driven by a motor to rotate, which drives the food to rotate, so that the food is heated evenly and a better cooking effect is achieved.

[0004] Chinese patent document No. CN209574438U disclosed an air fryer with a rotating device in 2019, which specifically discloses an air fryer including a body, a circuit board arranged in the body, and a frying basket detachably connected to the body. The body is provided with an inner cavity, and the frying basket can be installed in the inner cavity. The frying basket is provided with a frying part and a mounting part that are independent of each other. The frying part is provided with a rotating container, and the mounting part is connected to a handle. The mounting part is provided with a motor, and the motor is transmission-connected to the rotating container; the rotating container is provided with a front connecting shaft and a rear connecting shaft, and the motor is transmission-connected to the front connecting shaft through a gear transmission group. The frying basket is also provided with a movable hanging bracket, and the movable hanging bracket is provided with a rotating hole, and the rear connecting shaft is inserted into the rotating hole. In the above-mentioned patent document, the rear connecting shaft on the rotating container is not conveniently inserted into the frying basket, resulting in the rear connecting shaft and the rotating hole not being properly assembled, so that the motor cannot drive the rotating container to rotate. Moreover, since the motor and the gear transmission group are both located on the frying basket, it is not conducive to cleaning the frying basket.

[0005] For this reason, further improvement is needed. Utility Model Content

When the bracket 4 and the sleeve 502 rise to a certain position, the connecting shaft 301 extends into the sleeve 501, and the two are locked with each other for transmission connection. The support column 401 is positioned on the positioning hole 603, and the food container 2 is fully inserted into the body 1 to ensure that the food container 2 is stably installed in place.

[0052] Further, if Figure 14 and Figure 15 As shown, a guide slide 101 for guiding the guide portion 602 to slide is provided on the body 1 , and the guide portion 602 slides along the guide slide 101 .

[0053] Specifically, the guide portion 602 slides along the guide slide 101, and the guide surface 6021 pushes the support column 401 to rise, driving the bracket 4 and the sleeve 502 to rise. When the bracket 4 and the sleeve 502 rise to a certain position, the connecting shaft 301 is aligned with the sleeve 502; the user continues to insert the food container 2 completely into the body 1, and when the support column 401 is positioned on the positioning hole 603, the connecting shaft 301 and the sleeve 502 are locked with each other for transmission connection, thereby achieving precise matching between the transmission component 3 and the drive component 5.

[0054] Further, if Figure 15 As shown, the guide slide 101 has an opening 1011. When the user inserts the food container 2 into the body 1, the guide part 602 slides on the guide slide 101 from the opening 1011. During the sliding process, the guide part 602 pushes the support column 401 to rise, thereby driving the bracket 4 and the sleeve 502 to rise; the user continues to insert the food container 2 completely into the body 1. At this time, the side wall of the food container 2 abuts against the inner wall of the body 1, the support column 401 is positioned on the positioning hole 603, and after the connecting shaft 301 extends into the sleeve 501, the two are locked with each other for transmission connection.

[0055] Further, if Figure 9 and Figure 10 、 Figure 12 and Figure 13 As shown, the guide structure 6 further includes an unlocking assembly 604 , which includes an unlocking button 6041 and a driving plate 6042 for pushing the bracket 4 upward. The driving plate 6042 can be rotated on the food container 2 through the unlocking button 6041 .

[0056] Specifically, the user presses the unlock button 6041, the drive plate 6042 rotates and pushes the bracket 4 to rise. When the bracket 4 and the sleeve 502 rise, the connecting shaft 301 separates from the sleeve 502, and the user can easily remove the food container 2 from the body 1 for cleaning or replacing ingredients. After releasing the unlock button 6041, the bracket 4 is reset by gravity or a spring, and the sleeve 502 is also reset.

[0057] Further, if Figure 11 As shown, the driving plate 6042 is provided with a rotating shaft 6042a on the left and right side walls in the middle, and a positioning seat 2011 that cooperates with the rotating shaft 6042a is provided on the handle 201.
