[0035] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by those of ordinary skill in the technical field to which the present utility model belongs. The terms used in the description of the present utility model in this article are only for the purpose of describing specific embodiments, and are not intended to limit the present utility model. The term "or / and" used herein includes any and all combinations of one or more of the related listed items.

[0036] In existing grilling appliances, in order to drain the excess grease generated during cooking, oil leakage holes are provided on the baking tray, and oil discharge holes opposite to the oil leakage holes are provided on the housing. The oil on the baking tray will flow into the oil discharge holes through the oil leakage holes for drainage. For a grilling appliance with a detachable baking tray, when the baking tray is reinstalled on the housing, the oil leakage holes may not be directly opposite or may be misaligned with the oil discharge holes, resulting in the oil from the oil leakage holes draining to other parts of the housing and being unable to be cleaned. And in order to align the oil leakage holes with the oil discharge holes correctly each time, the user needs to observe and align them, which causes inconvenience in use.

[0037] To solve the above problems, as Figures 1 to 5 shown, the present application provides a grilling appliance, such that the oil from the oil leakage holes on the baking tray can all be discharged through the oil discharge holes without the need for observation and alignment.

[0038] As Figures 1 to 2 shown, specifically, the grilling appliance includes a housing assembly 10 and a baking tray 20, wherein: the housing assembly 10 includes a housing 11 and a reflector 12. The reflector 12 is arranged on the housing 11. An annular first oil guide groove 121 and an oil discharge hole 122 communicated with the first oil guide groove 121 are provided on the reflector 12; the baking tray 20 is detachably arranged on the housing assembly 10 and is located above the reflector 12. An oil leakage hole 21 and an annular second oil guide groove 22 communicated with the oil leakage hole 21 are provided on the bottom of the baking tray 20. The first oil guide groove 121 is located directly below the oil leakage hole 21.

[0039] Wherein, the first oil guiding groove 121 being located directly below the oil leakage hole 21 means that the orthographic projection of the oil leakage hole 21 is completely within the first oil guiding groove 121.

[0040] In the grilling appliance provided by the embodiment of the present utility model, during the cooking process, the oil on the baking tray 20 will flow into the second oil guiding groove 22, the oil in the second oil guiding groove 22 drips through the oil leakage hole 21 into the first oil guiding groove 121, and the oil in the first oil guiding groove 121 is discharged from the housing assembly 10 through the oil discharge hole 122. Since the first oil guiding groove 121 is arranged in a ring shape, and when the baking tray 20 is placed on the reflector 12, the first oil guiding groove 121 is located directly below the oil leakage hole 21, therefore, when the user installs the baking tray 20, there is no need to observe and align the oil leakage hole 21 and the oil discharge hole 122, which can simplify the installation steps of the baking tray 20, and can also avoid the situation where the oil is discharged to other places of the housing assembly 10 and cannot be cleaned due to the non-alignment or misalignment of the oil leakage hole 21 and the oil discharge hole 122, ensuring the normal use of the grilling appliance; and, both the first oil guiding groove 121 and the second oil guiding groove 22 are arranged in a ring shape, with a simple structure and convenient for cleaning the baking tray 20 and the reflector 12.

[0041] It is worth mentioning that the oil discharge hole 122 can cooperate with a conduit to lead out the oil, or an oil receiving box 30 can be provided below the oil discharge hole, or the conduit can cooperate with the oil receiving box 30 to realize the transportation of the oil.

[0042] Specifically, as Figure 2 and Figure 4 shown, the grilling appliance further includes an oil receiving box 30, and the oil receiving box 30 is located directly below the oil discharge hole 122. Wherein, the oil receiving box 30 being located directly below the oil discharge hole 122 means that the orthographic projection of the oil discharge hole 122 is completely within the oil receiving box 30. The oil in the first oil guiding groove 121 drips through the oil discharge hole 122 into the oil receiving box 30, avoiding the oil dripping on other positions such as the tabletop and the countertop, which is difficult to clean. After cooking is completed or when the oil in the oil receiving box 30 reaches the highest liquid level, the user can pour the oil receiving box 30, and the operation is simple and convenient.

[0043] As Figures 2 to 3 shown, in one embodiment, an avoidance hole 111 is provided on the housing 11, and the oil receiving box 30 is slidably arranged on the housing 11 through the avoidance hole 111. Thus, it can facilitate the user to install or disassemble the oil receiving box 30 on the housing 11 to clean the oil in the oil receiving box 30. In addition, the avoidance hole 111 can also facilitate the user to position the oil receiving box 30, ensuring that in the assembled state, the oil receiving box 30 is located directly below the oil discharge hole 122.

[0044] As Figures 2 to 3As shown, specifically, an avoidance hole 111 is provided on the side wall of the housing 11. The housing 11 is provided with an installation cavity 112 communicating with the avoidance hole 111. A through hole 113 is provided on the top wall of the installation cavity 112, and the through hole 113 is directly below the oil drain hole 122. Herein, the through hole 113 being directly below the oil drain hole 122 means that the orthographic projection of the oil drain hole 122 is completely within the through hole 113. The installation cavity 112 is used to limit the oil receiving box 30. When the oil receiving box 30 is pushed into the installation cavity 112 through the avoidance hole 111, the oil receiving box 30 is directly below the through hole 113, and the oil in the first oil guiding groove 121 drips into the oil receiving box 30 through the oil drain hole 122 and the through hole 113. Alternatively, the housing 11 may not be provided with the installation cavity 112. When the oil receiving box 30 is pushed into the housing 11 through the avoidance hole 111, the oil receiving box 30 is directly below the oil drain hole 122, and the oil in the first oil guiding groove 121 drips directly into the oil receiving box 30 through the oil drain hole 122.

[0045] Of course, in other embodiments, the oil receiving box 30 may also be separately provided from the housing 11, and the user can directly place the oil receiving box 30 directly below the oil drain hole 122.

[0046] As Figures 1 to 3 shown, in one embodiment, the oil leakage hole 21 is provided in the second oil guiding groove 22. The oil in the second oil guiding groove 22 can directly drip into the first oil guiding groove 121 through the oil leakage hole 21.
