Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of air fryers, in particular to a baking reflux mechanism of an air fryer. Background Technique

[0002] With the improvement of people's living standards, kitchen appliances are used more and more widely. The air fryer is one of them. Because the operation of the air fryer is relatively simple, it brings great convenience to people during cooking. Moreover, compared with the traditional frying method, a significant feature of the air fryer is that it can cook without using or using only a small amount of cooking oil, which makes the food healthier and reduces the amount of oil intake, which also meets the pursuit of most modern people.

[0003] After retrieval, the utility model with the application number CN202123115537.7 belongs to the field of air fryers. Specifically, it is a new type of air fryer, including a frying barrel and a frying pan mechanism; the frying pan mechanism is arranged on one side of the frying barrel; the frying pan mechanism includes a reinforcing block, a silica gel pad, a lining of the pull-out panel, a hook fixing bracket and a pull-out panel; the reinforcing block is arranged on one side of the frying barrel; a baking tray is arranged inside the frying barrel; the silica gel pad is arranged on the baking; by setting the frying pan mechanism, during use, the silica gel pad needs to be installed around the baking tray. After the silica gel pad is installed in place, the baking tray body is relied on to fix and support the silica gel pad, avoiding the deformation that is easy to occur when a separate support structure supports the silica gel pad. Furthermore, the silica gel pad is stable and reliable during the working process, not easy to fall off, and has a simple structure and low production cost.

[0004] The above solution proposes a new type of air fryer. Although this air fryer avoids the deformation of the silica gel pad during the support process, when baking the food inside the frying barrel, only the hot air returns to the frying barrel through the gap, and the returned hot air cannot be heated. The temperature of the returned hot air will be lower than the temperature before return. Therefore, we need to propose a baking reflux mechanism for an air fryer. Content of the Utility Model

[0005] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a baking reflux mechanism for an air fryer. Through the cooperation of a reflux chamber and a heating mechanism, the blown hot air passes through the reflux chamber and is re-introduced into the blowing mechanism, and then passes through the heating mechanism to heat the returned hot air, and then blows it back into the frying barrel to bake the food and maintain the temperature of the hot air blown into the frying barrel, so as to solve the problems raised in the above background technique.

Specific embodiments

[0022] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present utility model, rather than all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0023] Please refer to Figures 1-5 , the present utility model provides a technical solution: a baking return mechanism of an air fryer, including a pot body 1 and a frying barrel 2. An installation groove 102 is opened on one side of the pot body 1, and the frying barrel 2 is movably installed in the installation groove 102. First return air holes 4 are opened on both sides of the inner wall of the installation groove 102. Two return cavities 5 are also opened inside the pot body 1. The two return cavities 5 are located on both sides of the installation groove 102. One ends of the return cavities 5 are respectively communicated with the first return air holes 4. The two return cavities 5 can simultaneously return the hot air in the frying barrel 2, accelerate the circulating flow of the hot air, and increase the baking speed. A blowing mechanism 7 is fixedly installed inside the pot body 1. One end of the blowing mechanism 7 is fixedly connected to a heating mechanism 6. The air blown by the blowing mechanism 7 is heated by the heating mechanism 6 and then introduced into the frying barrel 2. The other ends of the return cavities 5 are communicated with the inside of the blowing mechanism 7.

[0024] The blowing mechanism 7 includes a bellows 701 and a fan 703. The fan 703 is installed in the bellows 701. Two second return air holes 702 are provided on both sides of the bellows 701. The second return air holes 702 are located above the fan 703. The second return air holes 702 are communicated with the inside of the return cavity 5. The hot air flowing back through the return cavity 5 re-enters the heating mechanism 6 through the fan 703.

[0025] The heating mechanism 6 includes a heating box 601 and a heating plate 602. A heating cavity 603 is provided inside the heating box 601. The heating plate 602 is installed in the heating cavity 603. A number of air inlets 101 are provided on both sides of the pot body 1. An air inlet cavity 8 is also provided inside the pot body 1. The air inlets 101 are communicated with the inside of the air inlet cavity 8. The bottom of the air inlet cavity 8 is communicated with the inside of the bellows 701. While heating the returning hot air, the cold air outside the pot body 1 is also heated at the same time.

[0026] Air outlets 201 are provided on both sides of the frying barrel 2. A partition net 202 is installed inside the air outlets 201 to prevent the food in the frying barrel 2 from overflowing from the air outlets 201. Clamping blocks 203 are fixedly installed on both sides of the frying barrel 2. A handle 3 is welded on one side of the frying barrel 2. Claw slots 103 are provided on both sides of the inner wall of the installation groove 102. The clamping blocks 203 are slidably clamped in the claw slots 103. The clamping blocks 203 are located above the air outlets 201. After the clamping blocks 203 are snapped into the claw slots 103, the air outlets 201 will be aligned with the first return air holes 4, so that the hot air flows back into the first return air holes 4.

[0027] Working principle: After placing the food in the frying barrel 2, the frying barrel 2 is installed inside the pot body 1 through the claw slots 103 and the clamping blocks 203. At the same time, the air outlets 201 will be communicated with the first return air holes 4. The fan 703 blows the cold air in the air inlet cavity 8 into the heating cavity 603. The heating cavity 603 is heated by the heating plate 602. The heated hot air is blown into the frying barrel 2, and then enters the first return air holes 4 through the air outlets 201, enters the return cavity 5, and re-enters the bellows 701 through the second return air holes 702 along the return cavity 5, and is reheated through the heating cavity 603 again to bake the food in the frying barrel 2.

[0028] Although the embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, those of ordinary skill in the art can understand that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principle and spirit of the present invention. The scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
