Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application belongs to the technical field of air fryers, and specifically relates to an air fryer with uniform heating. Background Art

[0002] An air fryer is an innovative kitchen appliance that uses high-speed circulating hot air to cook food, achieving a fried-like effect and reducing the fat and calorie intake of food. Inside the air fryer, a metal heating wire or a quartz heating tube is installed. When the power is turned on, the heating element quickly heats up, and the high-temperature hot air generated circulates throughout the cavity driven by a fan, providing uniform and efficient heating. The air fryer is a very practical choice for consumers who pursue a healthy diet, save cooking time, or wish to reduce food frying. It not only provides the convenience of cooking but also meets the needs of a healthy lifestyle.

[0003] For example, in the utility model patent with the publication number CN218355822U, an air fryer with uniform heating is disclosed, which includes an air fryer main body. A base is fixedly installed at the bottom of the air fryer main body. One end inside the air fryer main body is fixedly installed with a motor, and the output end of the motor is fixedly connected with a wind blade. A heating tube is arranged on the side of the wind blade. A storage rack is slidably inserted at one end inside the air fryer main body away from the motor. An exhaust hole is opened at one end of the top of the air fryer main body. A filter box is fixedly connected to the side of the air fryer main body corresponding to the motor. In this air fryer with uniform heating, by arranging the motor, the wind blade, and the heating tube in the left-right direction, left-right heating and blowing are realized, which makes the air circulation more stable than the conventional up-down structure. The unique air duct formed by the left-right structure can make the temperature more uniform and accurate, enabling better cooking of food. And two food placement plates are arranged in a storage rack, improving the space utilization rate.

[0004] However, it is found in the actual use process that: the food to be cooked needs to be placed on the food placement plate, and the hot air is driven by the fan to blow towards the food placement plate inside the storage rack to achieve the heating and cooking of the food;

[0005] However, when the hot air of the device blows from one side of the storage rack towards the food on the food placement board, the heating efficiency of the food on the windward side will be significantly higher than that on the leeward side, resulting in uneven heating. In addition, the air fryer usually has air circulation holes designed on its food placement board to promote the uniform distribution of hot air. However, this design also has limitations in actual use. Since the hot air mainly blows in from a specific direction, although the air circulation holes help the hot air to spread, they cannot completely ensure that the bottom and the surrounding of the food are evenly heated. Especially when the food is stacked tightly, the hot air may be difficult to penetrate to the bottom of the food, resulting in insufficient heating of the lower food and further exacerbating the problem of uneven heating. Therefore, an air fryer with uniform heating is provided. Summary of the Invention

[0006] The purpose of this application is to provide an air fryer with uniform heating to solve the above-mentioned problems.

[0007] The technical solution adopted in this application is as follows: An air fryer with uniform heating includes an air fryer body. Inside the air fryer body, there is a food placement frame. The bottom surface of the food placement frame is fixedly installed with a bottom sealing plate. The inner side wall of the food placement frame is fixedly installed with a plurality of limiting protrusions. On the top surface of the limiting protrusions inside the food placement frame, there is a food placement board. The top surface of the food placement board is provided with a plurality of rectangular through holes. The top surface of the food placement board is fixedly installed with a plurality of triangular support mesh plates, and triangular connecting mesh strips are fixedly installed on the outer surfaces of the plurality of triangular support mesh plates. The plurality of triangular support mesh plates are connected together through the triangular connecting mesh strips.

[0008] In a preferred embodiment, a circular diversion column is fixedly installed on the top surface of the bottom sealing plate below the food placement board. Four diversion plates are fixedly installed on the outer surface of the circular diversion column.

[0009] In a preferred embodiment, a decorative cover plate is fixedly installed on the outer surface of the food placement frame. A handle is fixedly installed on the side of the decorative cover plate away from the food placement frame.

[0010] In a preferred embodiment, lifting grooves are respectively opened on the left and right sides of the air fryer body.

[0011] In a preferred embodiment, a display control panel is fixedly installed on the top surface of the air fryer body. Buttons are fixedly installed on the top surface of the display control panel.

[0012] In a preferred embodiment, two adjustment knobs are fixedly installed on the top surface of the air fryer body.

[0013] In summary, due to the adoption of the above technical solution, the beneficial effects of this application are:

[0014] 1. In this application, due to the adoption of the above scheme, the heating element in the air fryer body is activated, generating high-temperature hot air which, driven by the fan, surges into the interior of the food placement frame from top to bottom to heat and cook the food on the food placement board. After the hot air blows downward onto the food, it will continuously move downward along the food, the food placement board, and the rectangular through-hole. At the same time, after part of the hot air contacts the food, it will spread to both sides and, via the mesh holes in the triangular support mesh plate and the triangular connecting mesh strip, ensure that the food in contact with the bottom of the food placement board is evenly heated, thus ensuring the overall even heating of the food. The food placement board of this device is convenient to disassemble and install, facilitating the cleaning of the interior of the food placement frame. In addition, through the setting of the triangular support mesh plate and the triangular connecting mesh strip, the hot air can flow smoothly on the top of the food placement board, ensuring the even heating of the part in contact with the food on the top of the food placement board, further improving the convenience and effect of cooking.
