Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of kitchen appliances, in particular to an air fryer with a simple structure. Background Art

[0002] In order to improve the visual effect inside the pot body, baking equipment such as ovens and air fryers currently on the market are equipped with lighting lamps at certain positions of the pot body to increase the brightness of the cooking cavity so that users can clearly see the processing conditions in the cooking cavity.

[0003] Specifically, some products use oven lamps for lighting, which are installed inside the pot body. The oven lamps are affected by high temperatures for a long time, resulting in a high failure rate, and the oven lamps are difficult to disassemble and install, which is not conducive to later maintenance. Some other products use LED lamps to replace oven lamps. For example, the prior art CN111493675A discloses an oven, which is provided with an LED light source and a light transmission component. The illumination light emitted by the LED light source can be transmitted to the inner pot through the light transmission component.

[0004] Although the lighting element of the above-mentioned product is arranged outside the inner pot, which can reduce the influence of high temperature on the structure of the lighting element, the overall structure of the lighting structure is complex and inconvenient to assemble, resulting in low efficiency and high cost of subsequent maintenance. Specifically, the lighting structure as a whole needs to be installed in two parts, the upper and lower parts. For the upper structure, the lighting element is arranged on the air guide plate of the oven (specifically, the air guide plate is provided with a heat sink, and the lighting element is arranged on the heat sink).

[0007] The air fryer of the utility model has a simple structure and also has the following additional technical features:

[0008] The reflector is provided with a mounting bevel, the mounting bevel is provided with a mounting hole, and the light guide column is obliquely penetrated through the mounting hole and extends into the cooking cavity.

[0009] The intersection of the extended line of the central axis of the light guide column and the bottom surface of the pot body is point S, the distance between the center of the bottom surface of the pot body and the side wall of the pot body is R, and the distance between point S and the side wall of the pot body is greater than or equal to 1 / 2R.

[0010] The fixing bracket is provided with a light-transmitting hole, a vertically extending light-shielding cover is provided below the light-transmitting hole, an opening is provided at the bottom of the light-shielding cover, and the light-guiding column is installed in the light-shielding cover through the opening.

[0011] A notch is provided on one side of the light shield, and a fastening structure is provided at the notch so that the inner wall of the light shield can clamp the light guide column tightly; or, the light guide column and the light shield are interference fit.

[0012] The fixing bracket is provided with a horizontal mounting plate, the mounting plate is provided with the light-transmitting hole, the LED lamp extends into the light-transmitting hole, and the light-guiding column blocks the light-transmitting hole.

[0015] A positioning assembly is also provided between the fixed bracket and the reflector, and the positioning assembly includes a positioning sink provided on one of the fixed bracket and the reflector and a positioning column provided on the other of the fixed bracket and the reflector, and the positioning column and the positioning sink are plugged in and aligned.

[0016] A heat fan and a heating element are arranged below the reflector cover, and the heat fan and the heating element avoid the extension line of the light guide column.

[0017] Due to the adoption of the above technical solution, the utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0018] 1. The air fryer with a simple structure of the utility model greatly simplifies the composition structure of the lighting assembly. The fixed bracket is not only used for the installation of the light panel and the light guide column, but also fixed by the fixed bracket and the reflector cover, which solves the problem of the inconvenience of installing the lighting assembly on the air fryer. That is, only the fixed bracket and the reflector cover need to be assembled. The operation is simple and convenient, which is very conducive to the disassembly and maintenance of the lighting assembly in the later stage, and can improve the assembly efficiency and reduce the cost.

[0019] 2. As a preferred embodiment, the reflector is provided with a mounting bevel, the mounting bevel is provided with a mounting hole, the light guide column is obliquely penetrated through the mounting hole and extends into the cooking cavity; under the premise that the light guide column is penetrated through the reflector, in order to ensure that the light emitted by the LED lamp can illuminate the entire cooking cavity and avoid uneven illumination (that is, there is an obvious difference between light and dark in the cooking cavity), in the limited space above the reflector, the problem of uneven lighting can be effectively solved by obliquely setting the light guide column, thereby ensuring the lighting effect.

[0020] Since there are usually cooling fans, motors and other structures directly above the reflector, the installation range of the lighting assembly is limited. When the lighting assembly is set eccentrically, if the light guide column is installed vertically, only part of the cooking cavity will be illuminated while the rest of the area will be dark. The problem of uneven lighting can be solved by installing the light guide column at an angle.

[0021] As a preferred embodiment of the present embodiment, the intersection of the extension line of the central axis of the light guide column and the bottom surface of the pot body is point S, the distance between the center of the bottom surface of the pot body and the side wall of the pot body is R, and the distance between point S and the side wall of the pot body is greater than or equal to 1 / 2R; by controlling point S to be within the above range, optimal illumination can be achieved, the lighting effect in the cooking cavity is better, there is no significant light and dark contrast area, and the user experience is better.

[0022] 3. As a preferred embodiment, the fixed bracket is provided with a light-transmitting hole, a vertically extending light shield is provided below the light-transmitting hole, an opening is provided at the bottom of the light shield, and the light guide column is installed in the light shield through the opening; since the upper end of the light guide column is outside the cooking cavity, in order to prevent the light from shining out from the upper end area of ​​the light guide column, which causes the light intensity entering the cooking cavity to be weakened and affects the lighting effect, the present application provides a light shield, which can make the light emitted by the LED lamp gather and shine into the cooking cavity, which is conducive to improving the lighting effect. In order to realize the transmission of the light of the LED lamp to the light guide column, a light-transmitting hole is also provided, so that the light path is transmitted from the LED lamp to the light guide column and then to the cooking cavity, ensuring the reliability of the light path.

[0023] As a preferred embodiment of the present embodiment, a notch is provided on one side of the light shield, and a fastening structure is provided at the notch to enable the inner wall of the light shield to clamp the light guide column; this solution solves the problem of complicated installation structure and installation steps of the light guide column. Compared with the prior art (CN111493675A) that uses a protrusion on the light transmission component to be inserted into a positioning groove, the structure of the light guide column of the present application is relatively simple. The light guide column only needs to be inserted into the light shield, and then the light shield can clamp the light guide column. The operation is simple and efficient.

[0024] Alternatively, the light guide column and the light shield are interference fit; this solution can also solve the problem of complex installation structure and installation steps of the light guide column, which is conducive to the simplification of the structure of the light guide column and the light shield and the ease of assembly of the two.

[0025] 4. As a preferred embodiment, the fixed bracket is provided with a horizontal mounting plate, the mounting plate is provided with the light-transmitting hole, the LED lamp extends into the light-transmitting hole, and the light-guiding column blocks the light-transmitting hole; in order to prevent part of the light of the LED lamp from being emitted to the outside of the light-guiding column when propagating downward and weakening the light intensity entering the cooking cavity, the present application can effectively reduce light leakage and improve the lighting effect by blocking the light-transmitting hole with the light-guiding column.

[0026] 5. As a preferred embodiment, a mounting hole is provided on the reflective cover, and the light guide column extends into the cooking cavity through the mounting hole, and the bottom of the light shield abuts against the top of the reflective cover and blocks the mounting hole; in order to prevent incomplete shading from causing part of the light to scatter outward from the light guide column above the mounting hole, the present application can improve the shading effect by optimizing the length of the light shield.

[0027] 6. As a preferred embodiment, an upwardly protruding buckle is provided on the top of the mounting plate, and the buckle limits the upward movement of the light board; in order to prevent the movement of the light board from affecting the propagation of the light path, the present application adopts the buckle to fix the light board, which has a simple structure and reliable installation.

[0028] 7. As a preferred embodiment, a positioning assembly is further provided between the fixed bracket and the reflector, and the positioning assembly includes a positioning sink provided on one of the fixed bracket and the reflector and a positioning column provided on the other of the fixed bracket and the reflector, and the positioning column and the positioning sink are plugged in and aligned; in order to solve the problem of inconvenient installation of the lighting assembly and the reflector, the present application only fixes the reflector with the fixed bracket, and before the two are fixed, alignment is performed first, which can reduce the difficulty of fixing and improve the efficiency, and adopts the plug-in cooperation of the positioning column and the positioning sink, which has a simple structure and is easy to operate.

[0029] 8. As a preferred embodiment, a heat fan and a heating element are arranged below the reflector cover, and the heat fan and the heating element avoid the extension line of the light guide column; in order to prevent the components in the cooking cavity from blocking the light and affecting the lighting effect, the present application reasonably arranges the relative positions of the light guide column, the heat fan and the heating element, so that the light entering the cooking cavity can smoothly shine on the processing area below the heating element, thereby ensuring the lighting effect.

[0045] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, the present application provides an air fryer with a simple structure, comprising a pot body 10 and a reflective cover 11 arranged above the pot body 10, the pot body 10 and the reflective cover 11 enclose a cooking cavity 12, the air fryer also includes a lighting assembly 20 arranged above the reflective cover 11, the lighting assembly 20 includes a fixed bracket 13, a light board 14 installed on the top of the fixed bracket 13 and a light guide column 15 installed on the bottom of the fixed bracket 13, the lower surface of the light board 14 is provided with an LED lamp 141, the upper end of the light guide column 15 corresponds to the LED lamp 141, the lower end of the light guide column 15 passes through the reflective cover 11 and extends into the cooking cavity 12, the LED lamp 141 illuminates the cooking cavity 12 through the light guide column 15, and the fixed bracket 13 and the reflective cover 11 are fixed.

[0046] Compared with the previous solution of placing the lighting lamp in the cooking cavity 12, the present application arranges the lighting structure outside the cooking cavity 12, which can keep the lighting lamp away from the heat source in the cooking cavity 12 and avoid it being affected by high temperature for a long time, thereby solving its life problem and extending its service life. Furthermore, in order to save energy consumption, LED lamps 141 are used, which is conducive to cost saving while ensuring the lighting effect. Furthermore, the lighting assembly 20 has few components and a simple structure, and only needs to be fixed by a fixing bracket 13 and a reflector 11, which solves the technical problem of the lighting assembly 20 in the prior art that the structure is complex and the assembly is inconvenient, making the configuration of the air fryer of the present application simple and reducing the development cost.

[0047] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a viewing window 101 is provided on the front side of the pot body 10. When the user faces the viewing window 101, the user can clearly view the processing conditions in the cooking cavity 12 through the viewing window 101 and under the illumination of the lighting assembly 20, which can enhance the user experience. In one embodiment, the pot body 10 can be pulled out and installed, and a handle 102 is provided on the front side of the pot body 10. After the user pushes the pot body 10 into a predetermined position through the handle 102, the user can view the inside of the cooking cavity 12 through the viewing window 101. The handle 102 and the viewing window 101 are arranged on the same side to avoid the user having to operate and view in different positions, thereby enhancing convenience.

[0048] The light guide column 15 is hollow inside, and the light emitted by the LED lamp 141 can be guided into the cooking cavity 12 by refraction through the light guide column 15. The light guide column 15 is made of glass material, for example. Preferably, the light guide column 15 is made of high temperature resistant glass material.

[0049] As a preferred embodiment of the present application, a light-transmitting hole 131 is provided on the fixed bracket 13, a vertically extending light-shielding cover 132 is provided below the light-transmitting hole 131, an opening 133 is provided at the bottom of the light-shielding cover 132, and the light-guiding column 15 is installed in the light-shielding cover 132 through the opening 133.

[0050] like Figures 3 to 5 As shown, the light board 14 and the light guide column 15 are respectively arranged on the upper and lower sides of the light transmission hole 131, so that the light path can be transmitted from the LED lamp 141 to the light guide column 15 and then to the cooking cavity 12, ensuring the reliability of the light path. One of the functions of the light shield 132 is to provide light shielding, so that the light emitted by the LED lamp 141 can only be transmitted downward into the cooking cavity 12. The function of the light shield 132 also includes providing fixation for the light guide column 15. It can be understood that the light guide column 15 can be fixed by using the light shield 132 or by other structures, and the present application does not limit it.

[0051] For example, to achieve fixed installation of the light guide column 15 , in one embodiment, a notch 134 is provided on one side of the light shield 132 , and a fastening structure is provided at the notch 134 to enable the inner wall of the light shield 132 to clamp the light guide column 15 .

[0052] like Figure 3 As shown, two corresponding screw holes 135 are provided on the outer wall of the light shield 132 on both sides of the notch 134. When the light guide column 15 is inserted into place, screws 136 can be used to penetrate the two screw holes 135 to lock it. At this time, the inner diameter of the light shield 132 becomes smaller and the light guide column 15 can be tightened. The installation steps are simple. The setting of the notch 134 is also conducive to the removal of the light guide column 15. When the light guide column 15 needs to be removed, the screws 136 are removed. By manually bending the position of the notch 134, the inner diameter of the light shield 132 can be slightly enlarged, which is conducive to the light guide column 15 coming out of the light shield 132, and the wear of the light guide column 15 can be reduced.

[0053] In another embodiment, the light guide column 15 is interference fit with the light shield 132. In this solution, the light shield 132 has a certain elasticity, and after the light guide column 15 is inserted into the light shield 132, the light shield 132 can hold the light guide column 15 tightly. This solution can also solve the problem of complex installation structure and installation steps of the light guide column 15, which is conducive to the simplification of the structure of the light guide column 15 and the light shield 132 and the convenience of assembly of the two.

[0054] In other embodiments, the light shield 132 may be used only for shading. For example, after the light guide column 15 is inserted into the light shield 132 , the two may be in contact or clearance fit. The light guide column 15 may be fixed by other structures on the fixing bracket 13 .

[0055] As a preferred embodiment of the present application, the reflector 11 is provided with a mounting bevel 111 , the mounting bevel 111 is provided with a mounting hole 112 , and the light guide column 15 is obliquely penetrated through the mounting hole 112 and extends into the cooking cavity 12 .

[0056] On the premise that the light guide column 15 is passed through the reflective cover 11, in order to ensure that the light emitted by the LED lamp 141 can illuminate the entire cooking cavity 12 and avoid uneven illumination (that is, there is a clear difference in light and dark in the cooking cavity 12), in the limited space above the reflective cover 11, the problem of uneven lighting can be effectively solved by tilting the light guide column 15, thereby ensuring the lighting effect.

[0057] Since a cooling fan, a motor and other structures are usually provided directly above the reflector 11, the installation range of the lighting assembly 20 is limited. When the lighting assembly 20 is eccentrically set, if the light guide column 15 is installed vertically, only part of the cooking cavity 12 will be illuminated while the rest of the area will be dark. By installing the light guide column 15 at an angle, the problem of uneven lighting can be solved.

[0058] Specifically, the reflector 11 includes a top wall and side walls, and the mounting slope 111 is arranged on the side wall. The side walls of the reflector 11 can be arranged to be inclined completely or only partially, which is not required in the present application.

[0059] Furthermore, the intersection of the extension line of the central axis of the light guide column 15 and the bottom surface of the pot body 10 is point S, the distance between the center of the bottom surface of the pot body and the side wall of the pot body is R, and the distance between point S and the side wall of the pot body is greater than or equal to 1 / 2R. Specifically, the shape of the bottom surface of the pot body 10 of the present application can be circular, square (such as square, rectangle), etc., and the dimension R means that the distance from the center of the bottom surface of the pot body 10 to the edge of the pot body 10 is at least R. For example, when the bottom surface of the pot body 10 is circular, the distance from the center of the bottom surface of the pot body 10 (i.e., the center of the circle) to any edge of the pot body 10 is R (i.e., the radius); when the bottom surface of the pot body 10 is square, the (vertical) distance from the center of the bottom surface of the pot body 10 to any side of the square is R; when the bottom surface of the pot body 10 is rectangular, the (vertical) distance from the center of the bottom surface of the pot body 10 to the long side of the rectangle is R.

[0060] In some embodiments, point S is exactly at the center of the bottom surface of the pot body 10, while in other embodiments, point S is within the range of a circle with the center of the bottom surface of the pot body 10 as the center and 1 / 2R as the radius (excluding the position of the center of the circle). In a specific solution, for example, when the bottom surface of the pot body 10 is circular, the distance from point S to the edge of the pot body 10 is not less than 1 / 2R. When the bottom surface of the pot body 10 is square, the distance from point S to the nearest edge of the pot body 10 is not less than 1 / 2R. When the bottom surface of the pot body 10 is rectangular, the distance from point S to the long side of the rectangle is not less than 1 / 2R, and the distance from point S to the short side of the rectangle is greater than 1 / 2R.

[0061] Based on the tilted setting of the light guide column 15, when the point S is in the above range, optimal illumination can be achieved, the lighting effect in the cooking cavity 12 is better, there is no significant light and dark contrast area, and the user experience is better.

[0062] As a preferred embodiment of the present application, a positioning assembly is further provided between the fixed bracket 13 and the reflector 11, and the positioning assembly includes a positioning sink 113 provided on one of the fixed bracket 13 and the reflector 11 and a positioning column 137 provided on the other of the fixed bracket 13 and the reflector 11, and the positioning column 137 and the positioning sink 113 are plugged in and aligned.

[0063] like Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, in one embodiment, the fixing bracket 13 is provided with a positioning column 137 extending downward, the reflector 11 is provided with a positioning depression 113, and the reflector 11 is also provided with a mounting hole 112 for the light guide column 15 to pass through. After the lighting assembly 20 itself is assembled, two-point alignment can be achieved by aligning the positioning column 137 and the positioning depression 113 as well as aligning the light guide column 15 and the mounting hole 112. In this way, the installation position of the lighting assembly 20 is determined, and then it can be fixed, which can reduce the difficulty of fixing the lighting assembly 20 and improve efficiency.

[0064] The positioning assembly is not limited to the combined structure of the positioning column 137 and the positioning sink 113 , but may also be other structures, such as a snap-fit ​​structure.

[0065] The fixing bracket 13 and the reflector 11 can be fastened by screws, buckles, etc., for example. Figure 2 As shown, the reflector 11 is provided with screw holes 135, and the fixing bracket 13 is correspondingly provided with screw columns and other related structures, and the two can be screwed and fixed.

[0066] In the scheme with the light-transmitting hole 131 , in one embodiment, the fixing bracket 13 is provided with a horizontal mounting plate 138 , the mounting plate 138 is provided with the light-transmitting hole 131 , the LED lamp 141 extends into the light-transmitting hole 131 , and the light guide column 15 blocks the light-transmitting hole 131 .

[0067] like Figure 5 As shown, the outer diameter of the LED lamp 141 is smaller than the inner diameter of the light-transmitting hole 131, and the inner diameter of the light-transmitting hole 131 is smaller than the inner diameter of the light-guide column 15, and the top of the light-guide column 15 abuts against the bottom of the mounting plate 138. The present application can effectively reduce light leakage by blocking the light-transmitting hole 131 with the light-guide column 15, so as to enhance the lighting effect.

[0068] In the scheme with a light shield 132, in one embodiment, a mounting hole 112 is provided on the reflective cover 11, and the light guide column 15 extends into the cooking cavity 12 through the mounting hole 112, and the bottom of the light shield 132 abuts against the top of the reflective cover 11 and blocks the mounting hole 112.

[0069] like Figure 5 As shown, the length of the light guide column 15 is greater than the length of the light shield 132, and the bottom end of the light guide column 15 extends out of the light shield 132 to extend into the cooking cavity 12. The bottom of the light shield 132 abuts against the top of the reflector 11, which can not only cover around the mounting hole 112 to reduce light leakage and optimize the covering effect, but also increase the position of the reflector 11 on the lighting assembly 20, which can prevent the lighting assembly 20 from shaking randomly and affecting the lighting effect.

[0070] Furthermore, in order to achieve the installation of the light board 14 , in one embodiment, a buckle 139 protruding upward is provided on the top of the mounting plate 138 , and the buckle 139 limits the upward movement of the light board 14 .

[0071] Specifically, at least two buckles 139 are provided, and the two buckles 139 are, for example, diagonally distributed, so as to achieve fixing the light board 14 with fewer parts. Figure 3 As shown, there are four buckles 139, and the four buckles 139 define a square installation area, and the lamp board 14 is limited to the installation area.

[0072] It is understandable that the lamp panel 14 and the mounting plate 138 may also be mounted by other means such as fixing with screws.

[0073] As a preferred embodiment of the present application, a hot fan 16 and a heating element 17 are disposed below the reflector 11 , and the hot fan 16 and the heating element 17 avoid the extension line of the light guide column 15 .

[0074] In order to prevent the components in the cooking cavity 12 from blocking the light and affecting the lighting effect, the present application reasonably arranges the relative positions of the light guide column 15, the heat fan 16 and the heating element 17, so that the light entering the cooking cavity 12 can be smoothly irradiated to the processing area below the heating element 17, thereby ensuring the lighting effect.

[0075] like Figure 1 As shown, the lighting assembly 20 is arranged on one side of the hot fan 16, so that the hot fan 16 can avoid the light guide column 15. The heating element 17 is, for example, a ring-shaped heating tube, and the light emitted by the light guide column 15 can avoid the heating tube and shine from the middle and outer sides of the ring to the cooking cavity 12 below, thereby ensuring the lighting effect.

[0076] The technical solution protected by the present utility model is not limited to the above-mentioned embodiments. It should be pointed out that the combination of the technical solution of any embodiment with the technical solution of one or more other embodiments is within the protection scope of the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail above with general descriptions and specific embodiments, it is obvious to those skilled in the art that some modifications or improvements can be made to it based on the present utility model. Therefore, these modifications or improvements made without departing from the spirit of the present utility model are within the scope of protection claimed by the present utility model.
