Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field related to air fryers, and in particular to a motor shaft sealing structure for a steam air fryer. Background Art
[0002] The motor in the air fryer is generally installed on the volute through a mounting plate, and the volute is installed on the heating hood. The motor shaft of the motor passes through the through hole on the heating hood and is connected to the wind wheel. In order to avoid scratching and interference between the motor shaft and the heating hood due to assembly errors, a certain gap is set between the motor shaft and the through hole on the heating hood. Setting the gap will cause the oil smoke and steam in the cooking process of the air fryer to enter the electrical control area above the heating hood through the gap between the motor shaft and the heating hood, which may easily cause electrical failures and lead to a high failure rate of the air fryer.

[0006] By adopting the above technical solution, a first sealing member in sealing contact with the motor shaft is arranged in the first mounting groove on the mounting bracket, so as to play a sealing role, prevent oil smoke and steam from entering the electrical control area above the heating hood through the gap between the motor shaft and the heating hood, and reduce the failure rate of the air fryer; in addition, when a certain deviation occurs in the installation of the motor and causes the motor shaft to deviate to one side, due to the existence of the folded part, the inner ring part will deviate to one side together with the motor shaft, thereby ensuring that the hole wall of the inner ring part is always in sealing contact with the motor shaft, thereby ensuring that the sealing effect is not affected.
[0007] In order to better solve the above technical defects, the utility model also has a better technical solution:
[0008] In some embodiments, a second sealing member in sealing contact with the heating hood is installed in the second mounting groove provided at the bottom of the mounting bracket, thereby preventing oil smoke and steam from entering the electrical control area above the heating hood through the gap between the mounting bracket and the heating hood, further improving the sealing performance.
[0009] In some embodiments, a main shaft sleeve is fixedly connected to the motor shaft, and the hole wall is in sealing contact with the main shaft sleeve.
[0010] In some embodiments, an annular protrusion is provided on the hole wall, the vertical width of the annular protrusion is smaller than the vertical width of the hole wall, and the annular protrusion is in sealing contact with the main shaft sleeve. The annular protrusion can reduce friction contact with the motor shaft, making the motor less likely to get stuck.
[0011] In some embodiments, the first sealing member is a circular structure made of silicone or silicone rubber, and the cross-section of the folded portion is V-shaped, N-shaped, or M-shaped.
[0012] In some embodiments, the second mounting groove is an annular groove, and the second sealing member is an annular sealing gasket.
[0013] In some embodiments, the motor is mounted on a volute via a mounting plate, the volute is mounted on the heating hood, and a first wind wheel connected to the motor shaft is disposed in the heating hood.
[0014] In some embodiments, a second wind wheel connected to the motor shaft is disposed in the volute. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
