[0027] When the utility model is in use, first hook the side of the upper grid 301 away from the first rotating shaft 303 and then pull the upper grid 301 upward. At the same time, the upper grid 301 rotates around the axis of the first rotating shaft 303, so that the distance between the upper grid 301 and the lower grid 302 is increased. Place the food on the lower grid 302, and then rotate the upper grid 301 back to make the upper grid 301 contact the food, so as to fix the food. Then, snap the connecting rod 501 on the upper grid 301 and the lower grid 302 into the groove 504, so that the rotating structure 3 is fixed on the mounting seat 4. Then, turn over the rotating structure 3 through the driving structure 7, so that the rotating structure 3 drives the food to turn over, effectively avoiding uneven baking caused by the food being heated on one side for a long time. The food can be turned over without taking out the frying basket 1, and the operation is flexible and simple. Moreover, the food is fixed on the rotating structure 3, avoiding food breakage when manually turning over the food, and thus making the cooking effect of the air fryer better. At the same time, the rotating structure 3 is fixed by snapping the connecting rod 501 into the groove 504. When it is necessary to disassemble and clean the rotating structure 3, release the fixation of the connecting rod 501 to disassemble the rotating structure 3, which is convenient for cleaning the rotating structure 3 and replacing accessories, improving the use efficiency. Then hold the first knob 502 and move it downward. The first knob 502 drives the screw rod 505 to move downward, so that the screw rod 505 is threadedly connected to the mounting seat 4. The movement of the screw rod 505 drives the stopper 503 to move downward at the same time. When the stopper 503 abuts against the two connecting rods 501, continue to rotate the first knob 502 until the bottom surface of the first knob 502 abuts against the stopper 503 downward, so as to fix the connecting rod 501, and thus make the rotating structure 3 more stable during the turning process, avoiding the sliding of the rotating structure 3. Then push the frying basket 1 into the pot body, start the power supply to bake the food. After baking for a period of time, check the baking situation of the food through the visual glass on the air fryer, and then rotate the second knob 701 as needed. The second knob 701 drives the operating link 702 to rotate, the operating link 702 drives the second rotating shaft 704 to rotate, and the second rotating shaft 704 drives the mounting seat 4 and the rotating structure 3 fixed on the mounting seat 4 to rotate, so as to turn over the food, make the food heated evenly, and have a better baking effect. The operation is flexible and simple, improving the use efficiency of the air fryer. Through the friction between the rotating sleeve 705 and the docking plate 8, the second rotating shaft 704 is prevented from rotating by itself after turning over.
