Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field related to air fryers, in particular to a separated air duct structure and also to an air fryer. Background Art

[0002] The air fryer mainly uses air to replace the hot oil in the original frying pan, relying on the convection mechanism and a mechanical fan to circulate the hot air around the food at high speed to cook food. In order to increase the versatility of air fryers, a heating plate is now arranged under the cooking cavity of the air fryer so that the air fryer can realize the function of cooking. Whether it is an air fryer with only the air frying function or an air fryer with the dual functions of air frying and cooking, an air duct member is generally installed thereon. The air outlet on the heat reflecting cover in the air fryer and the air outlet on the volute are respectively connected with the air duct inlet in the air duct member, and the outlet end of the air duct member is placed in the mounting hole on the air fryer. At present, the dual-function air fryer has certain shortcomings in use. When cooking, the hot steam in the pot enters the air duct member, and a part of it is discharged to the outside from the outlet end of the air duct member, and a part of it enters the volute, making the electrical components in the air fryer moist and prone to short circuit, resulting in a short service life of the air fryer; in addition, no sealing measures are provided at the connection between the air duct member and the heat reflecting cover, and the hot steam will also enter the air fryer from the gap at the connection (i.e., the space between the outside of the heat reflecting cover of the air fryer and the outer shell of the pot), thereby making the internal electrical components moist and prone to short circuit, resulting in a short service life of the air fryer. Utility Model Content

[0003] In order to overcome the existing technical defects, the purpose of the utility model is to provide a separate air duct structure to solve the above technical problems.

[0004] The technical solution adopted by the utility model to solve the technical problem is as follows:

[0005] According to one aspect of the utility model, a separated air duct structure is designed, comprising: an air duct component, wherein the air duct component comprises an upper air duct shell, a lower air duct shell, an air duct partition and a first sealing component of an elastic structure, wherein the upper air duct shell is fixedly connected to the lower air duct shell, the air duct partition is arranged between the upper air duct shell and the lower air duct shell, and a first air duct is formed between the air duct partition and the upper air duct shell, and a second air duct is formed between the air duct partition and the lower air duct shell, a sealing strip is arranged between the air duct partition and the lower air duct shell, and the right end of the lower air duct shell and the right end of the air duct partition are inserted into the first sealing component and in sealing contact with the first sealing component.

[0006] With the above technical solution, this air duct component is applied to an air fryer. The first air duct on the air duct component is docked with the air outlet on the volute in the air fryer, and the second air duct on the air duct component is docked with the air outlet on the heat reflection cover in the air fryer. Moreover, the first seal is in contact with the heat reflection cover. This air duct component divides its original single air duct into the first air duct and the second air duct through an air duct partition, so that the hot steam entering the second air duct can be discharged to the outside, preventing it from entering the volute and affecting the electrical components in the air fryer, and improving the service life of the air fryer. In addition, by inserting a first seal that is in sealing contact with the right end of the lower air duct shell and the right end of the air duct partition, the first seal is used to contact the heat reflection cover, which can prevent gaps from being generated between the lower air duct shell, the air duct partition and the heat reflection cover, avoiding hot steam from entering the space between the outside of the heat reflection cover of the air fryer and the outer shell of the cookware, and preventing the hot steam from affecting the electrical components in the air fryer, further improving the service life of the air fryer.
