The first cooking utensil 4 includes a grill 41, and the second cooking utensil 5 includes a pot body 51; a gap is formed between the placing table 3 and the side wall of the base assembly 1 to form an air outlet duct 6. A return air hole 31 is arranged on the placing table 3 corresponding to the position of the blower blade 21, so that the hot air generated by the heating assembly 2 enters the first cooking utensil 4 or the second cooking utensil 5 through the air outlet duct 6, and the hot air in the first cooking utensil 4 or the second cooking utensil 5 returns to the heating assembly 2 through the return air hole 31 for circulation

[0026] The cooking device can cook grilled ingredients through the first cooking utensil 4 and fry food through the second cooking utensil 5, which can meet the different needs of users and improve the utilization rate of the cooking device.

[0027] Among them, the base assembly 1 includes a housing 11 and an inner housing 12 disposed within the housing 11. A receiving cavity 13 is provided between the bottom of the inner housing 12 and the housing 11. The driving motor 23 is disposed within the receiving cavity 13. The fan blade 21 and the heating element 22 are disposed at the bottom of the inner housing 12, and the fan blade 21 and the heating element 22 are within the horizontal projection range of the placement table 3, so as to prevent the grease in the first cooking utensil 4 or the second cooking utensil 5 from dripping onto the fan blade 21 and the heating element 22. In addition, a raised portion 32 is formed on the placement table 3 corresponding to the position of the fan blade 21, and the return air hole 31 is provided on the raised portion 32.

[0028] Specifically, the first cooking utensil 4 further includes a top cover 42 and a barbecue fork 43 inserted on the barbecue grill 41. The barbecue grill 41 covers the base assembly 1 and cooperates with the inner housing 12 and the top cover 42 to form a cooking cavity. At least one end of the barbecue fork 43 is located within the cooking cavity, so that the hot air generated by the heating assembly 2 enters the cooking cavity through the air outlet duct 6 to cook the food on the barbecue fork 43. In this embodiment, an opening 44 is provided in the middle of the top end of the barbecue grill 41, and an insertion hole 45 communicating with the opening 44 is provided on the barbecue grill 41, so that the barbecue fork 43 can be inserted into the insertion hole 45 from the opening 44, and a holding portion is provided at the end of the barbecue fork 43, and the size of the holding portion is larger than the aperture of the insertion hole 45, thereby preliminarily fixing the barbecue fork 45. After the barbecue fork 43 is inserted, the top cover 42 is covered at the opening 44, and a relief hole cooperating with the holding portion is provided at the top cover 42, which can not only seal the cooking cavity but also fix the barbecue fork 45, so that the heating assembly 2 can bake the food on the barbecue fork 43.

[0029] Among them, the barbecue fork 43 is located outside the placement table 3. During the cooking process, the grease generated by the food drips from the barbecue fork 43 and drips onto the bottom of the inner housing 12, so as to prevent the grease from adhering to the placement table 3.

[0030] A positioning block is further provided on the base assembly 1, and a positioning groove for the positioning block to extend into is provided on the barbecue grill 41, thereby realizing the positioning and sealing of the base assembly 1 and the barbecue grill 41. In other embodiments, a positioning groove is provided on the base assembly 1, and a positioning block for the positioning groove to extend into is provided on the barbecue grill 41.

[0031] At the air return hole 31 of the placement table 3, a flow spoiler 48 is provided. The flow spoiler 48 extends to the top of the cooking cavity. An air return air duct communicating with the air return hole 31 is formed inside the flow spoiler 48. An air inlet hole 49 communicating with the cooking cavity is provided at the top of the flow spoiler 48. During the operation of the cooking device, the heating element 22 generates heat, and the fan blade 21 rotates under the action of the drive motor 23, driving the hot air to enter the cooking cavity through the air outlet air duct 6. Under the suction action of the fan blade 21, the hot air flows back to the heating assembly 2 through the air return air duct and the air return hole 31 for circulation, so as to continuously circulate heat and bake the food on the barbecue fork 43. The hot air in the cooking cavity flows upward along the flow spoiler 48 from the bottom, which is beneficial to evenly baking the food on the barbecue fork 43, making the food cooked synchronously, thereby improving the taste of food cooking.

[0032] In this embodiment, the bottom end of the flow spoiler 48 is open and sleeved outside the convex portion 32 through this opening, so as to fix the flow spoiler 48. It should be noted that the air inlet hole 49 can be provided at the top end of the flow spoiler 48 or at the top of the side wall of the flow spoiler 48, so that the hot air can flow upward under the suction action of the fan blade 21 and reach the top of the cooking cavity, thereby ensuring the heating uniformity of the food.

[0033] In addition, the second cooking utensil 5 further includes a cover body 52. The pot body 51 is placed on the placement table 3, and the cover body 52 covers the base assembly 1 and forms a cooking cavity with the base assembly 1. The pot body 51 is provided with a ventilation hole 53 communicating with the air outlet air duct 6 and an air outlet hole 54 communicating with the air return hole 31. The ventilation holes 53 are evenly distributed on the side wall of the pot body 51, so that the hot air generated by the heating assembly 2 enters the inside of the pot body 51 through the air outlet air duct 6 and the ventilation holes 53 to heat the food inside the pot body 51. The hot air in the pot body 51 flows back to the fan blade 21 for circulation under the suction action of the fan blade 21. It should be noted that a flow guide cover is provided on the outer side wall of the pot body 51 at the position of the ventilation hole 53, and an air outlet communicating with the ventilation hole 53 is provided on the flow guide cover, which can play a role in guiding the hot air.

[0034] Among them, a return air cover 55 communicating with the air return hole 31 is formed by the upward extension of the bottom wall of the pot body 51. The return air cover 55 extends to the top of the pot body 51. The air outlet hole 54 is provided on the side wall of the return air cover 55, so that the hot air in the pot body 51 flows upward, which is beneficial to evenly heating the food in the pot body 51. In other embodiments, the top of the return air cover 55 is open to form the air outlet hole 54.

[0035] In this embodiment, there is a gap between the outer side wall of the bottom of the pot body 51 and the inner wall of the base assembly 1. This gap communicates the air outlet air duct 6 with the ventilation hole 53, which not only facilitates the hot air generated by the heating assembly 2 to enter the pot body 51, but also facilitates the installation and disassembly of the pot body 51.

[0036] Furthermore, an oil receiving box 7 is detachably arranged inside the outer shell 11, and an oil leakage hole 71 communicating with the oil receiving box 7 is arranged at the bottom of the inner shell 12. The oil leakage hole 71 is located outside the horizontal plane projection of the placing table 3. In addition, an oil guiding groove 72 is arranged at the bottom of the inner shell 12 and around the heating assembly 2. The oil leakage hole 71 is arranged in the oil guiding groove 72, and the height of one side of the oil guiding groove 72 where the oil leakage hole 71 is arranged is lower than that of the other side. When the first cooking utensil 4 is placed inside the inner shell 12, the grease generated during the cooking of the food drips from the barbecue fork 43 and drops onto the oil guiding groove 72 at the bottom of the inner shell 12. The oil guiding groove 72 is inclined at a certain angle, and the grease can gather from high to low to the oil leakage hole 71 and flow into the oil receiving box 7 through the oil leakage hole 71, facilitating the cleaning of the cooking device.

[0037] When the second cooking utensil 5 is placed inside the inner shell 12, an oil outlet hole 73 corresponding to the oil leakage hole 71 is arranged at the bottom of the pot body 51. The oil outlet holes 73 are distributed around the bottom of the pot body 51 and are located outside the placing table 3. The bottom of the pot body 51 is in a state of being convex in the middle and sunken around, facilitating the grease in the pot body 51 to flow to the periphery of the bottom of the pot body 51 and flow into the oil guiding groove 72 at the bottom of the inner shell 12 through the oil outlet hole 73. The oil guiding groove 72 is inclined at a certain angle, and the grease gathers from high to low to the oil leakage hole 71 and flows into the oil receiving box 7 through the oil leakage hole 71, facilitating the cleaning of the cooking device; at the same time, it avoids the grease at the bottom of the pot body 51 from adhering to the food and affecting the cooking effect of the food.

[0038] In addition, a smoking box 8 is also arranged on the base assembly 1. The smoking box 8 is arranged outside the outer shell 11. A combustion chamber 81 for accommodating combustibles is arranged inside the smoking box 8. An air inlet 84 communicating the combustion chamber 81 with the outside is arranged at the bottom of the smoking box 8. A smoking heating tube 85 is arranged inside the combustion chamber 81 for heating the combustibles placed in the combustion chamber 81 at a high temperature to generate smoke. A rotating door body is arranged above the combustion chamber 81 on the smoking box 8. The rotating door body is rotatably connected to the smoking box 8, and a smoke outlet chamber 82 communicating with the combustion chamber 81 is formed inside the rotating door body. A smoke outlet 83 connecting the smoke outlet chamber 82 with the cooking chamber is arranged on the smoking box 8. The smoke outlet 83 is located outside the fan blade 21 and outside the oil guiding groove, so as to prevent the grease generated by the food from dripping onto the smoking box 8.

[0039] During the operation of the cooking device, tangential hot air is generated. When the tangential hot air passes through the smoke outlet 83, a part of the air in the smoking box 8 will be carried away, creating a negative pressure space. At this time, air is drawn in from the outside through the air inlet 84 to make up for the missing gas. By rotating the rotating door body, the upper part above the combustion chamber 81 is opened, so that smoking materials can be placed in the combustion chamber 81. Through high-temperature heating by the smoking heating tube 85, smoke is generated. The outside air is drawn into the combustion chamber 81 from the air inlet 84. The air will carry away the smoke generated by the high temperature of the smoking materials during the rising process and enter the smoke chamber 82. Finally, it is carried away by the tangential hot air and enters the cooking chamber, and circulates with the hot air in the cooking chamber, so as to smoke the food to meet the different needs of users. Using the principle of negative pressure smoking, the smoke is continuously extracted from the combustion chamber 81 and continuously carried into the cooking chamber by the tangential hot air, thus completing the smoking of the food.

[0040] The above are all preferred embodiments of this application, and do not limit the protection scope of this application accordingly. Therefore, all equivalent changes made according to the structure, shape, and principle of this application should be covered within the protection scope of this application.
