[0049] To keep the following description of the embodiments of this application clear and concise, detailed descriptions of known functions and known components are omitted in this application.
[0050] As Figures 1 to 4 shown, an embodiment of this application provides an air fryer, which includes a main body 1, a partition 2, an inner pot assembly 5 and a door assembly 6. A cooking cavity 11 is provided inside the main body 1, and the cooking cavity 11 penetrates to one side of the main body 1 to form an opening. The partition 2 is detachably disposed in the cooking cavity 11 for dividing the cooking cavity 11 into a mutually isolated first cooking cavity 111 and a second cooking cavity 112. The part of the opening corresponding to the first cooking cavity 111 forms a first opening (not shown in the figure), and the part corresponding to the second cooking cavity 112 forms a second opening (not shown in the figure). The inner pot assembly 5 is detachably disposed in the first cooking cavity 111 or the second cooking cavity 112 and can cover the first opening or the second opening. The door assembly 6 is used to cover the first opening and the second opening separately or simultaneously.
[0051] By providing the partition 2, the air fryer according to the embodiment of this application can divide the cooking cavity 11 into two mutually independent first cooking cavity 111 and second cooking cavity 112. The first cooking cavity 111 and the second cooking cavity 112 can be cooked simultaneously or can work independently. The user can choose to cook in one of the cooking cavities 11 according to the amount of the ingredients to be cooked and the cooking method to be selected, or choose to cook in both cooking cavities 11 simultaneously. When the volume of the ingredients is large, the partition 2 can also be taken out to form a larger cooking cavity 11 that is beneficial to cooking ingredients with a large volume. In this way, different needs of the user can be met, and when the amount of ingredients is small, the problem of energy waste caused by using the entire cooking cavity 11 for cooking can be avoided, as well as the problem of prolonging the cooking time due to the large amount of ingredients and the need for multiple cooking times.
[0052] It can be understood that the main body 1 is provided with a heating component for heating the first cooking cavity 111 and the second cooking cavity 112. The heating method of the heating component is not limited to hot air heating, and can also include heating tube heating to add a baking function on the basis of air frying. The first cooking cavity 111 and the second cooking cavity 112 can be respectively configured with different heating components to start the corresponding heating component according to the cooking cavity 11 selected during cooking, so as to avoid the situation where both cooking cavities 11 are heated simultaneously when only one cooking cavity 11 is needed for cooking.
[0053] The partition plate 2 can be arranged vertically to divide the cooking cavity 11 into a first cooking cavity 111 and a second cooking cavity 112 arranged side by side left and right; the partition plate 2 can also be arranged horizontally to divide the cooking cavity 11 into a first cooking cavity 111 and a second cooking cavity 112 arranged one above the other. The design principles of the left-right side-by-side arrangement and the up-down arrangement of the first cooking cavity 111 and the second cooking cavity 112 are the same. For the convenience of description, the air fryer of the present application will be described below with the partition plate 2 arranged horizontally and the first cooking cavity 111 and the second cooking cavity 112 arranged one above the other.
[0054] In some embodiments, as Figure 3 and Figure 4 shown, the main body 1 also has a receiving cavity 12, and the receiving cavity 12 is located at the rear side of the cooking cavity 11. A heating component for heating the cooking cavity 11 is provided in the receiving cavity 12. The heating component includes a first heating component 3 and a second heating component 4. A first ventilation hole 1111 is provided in a part of the rear cavity wall of the first cooking cavity 111 corresponding to the first heating component 3 to enable the hot air generated by the first heating component 3 to circulate into the first cooking cavity 111; a second ventilation hole 1121 is provided in a part of the rear cavity wall of the second cooking cavity 112 corresponding to the second heating component 4 to enable the hot air generated by the second heating component 4 to circulate into the second cooking cavity 112. By respectively providing heating components for the first cooking cavity 111 and the second cooking cavity 112, different heating components can be started to heat the cooking cavity 11 according to the usage situation of the cooking cavity 11, which can not only improve the heating efficiency but also save energy.
[0055] The first heating component 3 and the second heating component 4 can adopt the same structure. For example, both of them adopt a hot air component. Continuing to combine Figure 3 and Figure 4, the first heating component 3 includes a first heating device 31, a first hot air blade 32, a first cold air blade 33, a first motor 34, and a first reflector 35. The first heating device 31 can be, for example, a heating tube, which can be arranged close to the rear cavity wall of the first cooking cavity 111. Both the first hot air blade 32 and the first cold air blade 33 are arranged on the output shaft of the first motor 34 and are driven by the first motor 34 to rotate. The first hot air blade 32 is close to the first heating device 31, and the first cold air blade 33 is close to the first motor 34. The first reflector 35 is arranged between the first hot air blade 32 and the first cold air blade 33 and is used to separate the first heating device 31 and the first hot air blade 32 in a first area communicating with the first ventilation hole 1111, so that the heat generated by the first heating device 31 generates hot air under the action of the first hot air blade 32 and circulates in the first cooking cavity 111 and the first area. The function of the first cold air blade 33 is to dissipate heat for the first motor 34. The second heating component 4 includes a second heating device 41, a second hot air blade 42, a second cold air blade 43, a second motor 44, and a second reflector 45. The second heating device 41 can be, for example, a heating tube, which can be arranged close to the rear cavity wall of the second cooking cavity 112. Both the second hot air blade 42 and the second cold air blade 43 are arranged on the output shaft of the second motor 44 and are driven by the second motor 44 to rotate. The second hot air blade 42 is close to the second heating device 41, and the second cold air blade 43 is close to the second motor 44. The second reflector 45 is arranged between the second hot air blade 42 and the second cold air blade 43 and is used to separate the second heating device 41 and the second hot air blade 42 in a second area communicating with the second ventilation hole 1121, so that the heat generated by the second heating device 41 generates hot air under the action of the second hot air blade 42 and circulates in the second cooking cavity 112 and the second area. The function of the second cold air blade 43 is to dissipate heat for the second motor 44.
[0056] As Figure 3 and Figure 4 shown, the heating component further includes a motor base 36. The motor base 36 is in a cover shape and is buckled on the outside of the heating component except for the first motor 34 and the second motor 44. Both the first motor 34 and the second motor 44 are arranged on the motor base 36 and are located on the side of the motor base 36 away from the cooking cavity 11. The first reflector 35, the second reflector 45, and the motor base 36 are connected to each other. The sides of the first reflector 35 and the second reflector 45 away from each other are respectively pressed against the outer side of the rear cavity wall of the cooking cavity 11 through the opposite sides of the motor base 36.
[0057] In some embodiments, as Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, a retaining strip 13 is provided on the opening. The opposite ends of the retaining strip 13 are respectively connected to the opposite sides of the opening to divide the opening into a first opening and a second opening. A partition 2 is provided in the cooking cavity 11 at a position corresponding to the retaining strip 13, and the handle side of the partition 2 abuts against the inner side of the retaining strip 13. The first opening forms the cavity opening of the first cooking cavity 111, and the second opening forms the cavity opening of the second cooking cavity 112. Through the retaining strip 13, it is not only convenient to set the partition 2, but also the retaining strip 13 cooperates with the partition 2, which is beneficial to divide the cooking cavity 11 into the first cooking cavity 111 and the second cooking cavity 112.
[0058] As Figure 2 and Figure 3 shown, a plurality of corresponding protrusions 14 are respectively provided on the left and right cavity walls of the first cooking cavity 111 and the second cooking cavity 112 to support the partition 2 when the partition 2 is provided in the cooking cavity 11. Moreover, the protrusions 14 are also used to support a carrier provided in the cooking cavity 11 for carrying food to be cooked. The carrier can be, for example, a grill 7, a baking tray, etc.
[0059] As Figure 5 shown, the partition 2 can be a plate-shaped body approximately in a rectangle, and one side edge is bent upward to form a handle 21. The side of the partition 2 with the handle 21 forms the handle side. Concave and convex ribs are provided on the plate body of the partition 2 to improve the structural strength.
[0060] As Figure 6 shown, a protrusion 14 slightly lower than the retaining strip 13 is provided on the cavity wall of the second cooking cavity 112. When the partition 2 is loaded into the cooking cavity 11, hold the handle 21 of the partition 2, make the bottom side of the partition 2 close to the upper surface of the retaining strip 13, and gradually extend it into the cooking cavity 11. When the handle 21 extends to the inner side of the retaining strip 13, the partition 2 falls onto the protrusion 14, and the handle 21 abuts against the inner side of the retaining strip 13. See Figure 3 .
[0061] It can be understood that the spatial sizes of the first cooking chamber 111 and the second cooking chamber 112 may be the same or different, and it is acceptable if either one has a larger space. The door body assembly 6 may include only one. One of the first opening and the second opening is covered by the door body assembly 6, and the other is covered by the inner pot assembly 5. Of course, different door body assemblies 6 may also be provided for the two openings, which can meet the cooking situations where the first cooking chamber 111 and the second cooking chamber 112 need to be used simultaneously but the inner pot assembly 5 is not required. For example, when roasting a whole chicken, since the volume of the whole chicken is large and it needs to occupy the first cooking chamber 111 and the second cooking chamber 112, at this time, the partition 2 is removed to form a larger cooking chamber 11. After the whole chicken is placed in the cooking chamber 11, two door body assemblies 6 are respectively covered on the two openings. Also for example, when roasting a large number of lamb kebabs and it is necessary to use the two first cooking chambers 111 and the second cooking chamber 112 for baking simultaneously but it is not suitable to put them in the inner pot 51, grills 7 are respectively placed in the two cooking chambers 11, the lamb kebabs are respectively placed on the grills 7 in the two cooking chambers 11, and then two door body assemblies 6 are respectively covered on the two openings.
[0062] In some embodiments, as Figure 2 and Figure 3 shown, the first cooking chamber 111 is arranged above the second cooking chamber 112, and the space of the first cooking chamber 111 is larger than that of the second cooking chamber 112. The inner pot assembly 5 can only be arranged in the first cooking chamber 111. A third heating device 9 may be arranged at the bottom in the second cooking chamber 112. The third heating device 9 can heat the second cooking chamber 112 alone or in cooperation with the second heating device 41, with high cooking efficiency and uniform coloring. The third heating device 9 may be a heating tube. A grill 7 may be arranged in the second cooking chamber 112, and the food to be baked is arranged on the grill 7. The food on the grill 7 is directly baked by the heating tube, improving the heating efficiency. The cavity opening of the second cooking chamber 112 is covered by the door body assembly 6.
[0063] A heating tube may also be arranged at the top of the first cooking chamber 111 to provide baking heating for the first cooking chamber 111.
[0064] In some embodiments, as Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown, a rotating rack 15 is provided in the second cooking cavity 112. The rotating rack 15 is used to support the baking tray. The bottom of the main body 1 also has a motor cavity 16. For example, a bottom plate 19 is provided at the bottom of the cooking cavity 11 of the main body 1. A motor cavity 16 is formed below the bottom plate 19, and a cooking cavity 11 is formed above the bottom plate 19. A third motor 17 is provided in the motor cavity 16. The third motor 17 is connected to the rotating rack 15 and is used to drive the rotating rack 15 to rotate. In this way, the cooking ingredients can be rotated to improve the uniformity of heating during cooking. For example, the baking tray can be a pizza tray 8 to rotate and cook pizza. When cooking pizza, the second heating device 41 and the third heating device 9 can be started simultaneously, so that the cooking efficiency is high and the coloring is uniform.
[0065] Continuing to combine Figure 3 and Figure 4 , the third motor 17 is fixed in the motor cavity 16 through a bracket. A bushing 18 is sleeved on the output shaft of the third motor 17. The bottom of the rotating rack 15 forms a convex column and extends into the bushing 18 to be connected to the bushing 18. In this way, when the third motor 17 is started, the rotating rack 15 will be driven to rotate through the bushing 18, and then drive the baking tray or pizza tray 8 on the rotating rack 15 to rotate, realizing rotating cooking.
[0066] In some embodiments, as Figure 7 shown, the inner pot assembly 5 includes an inner pot 51 and a panel assembly 52 detachably provided on one side of the inner pot 51. A handle 54 is provided on the panel assembly 52. When the inner pot assembly 5 is provided in the first cooking cavity 111 or the second cooking cavity 112, the periphery of the panel assembly 52 is closely attached to the periphery of the first opening or the second opening to cover the first opening or the second opening. See Figure 1 and Figure 4 . Figure 1 and Figure 4 show the state where the inner pot assembly 5 is provided in the first cooking cavity 111.
[0067] As Figure 8 shown, a hook 511 and a locking plate 512 are provided on one side of the inner pot 51. As Figure 9 shown, a fastening groove 5211 corresponding to the hook 511 and a through hole 5212 corresponding to the locking plate 512 are provided on the inner side surface of the panel assembly 52. A locking mechanism 53 is provided in the panel assembly 52. When the panel assembly 52 is installed on one side of the inner pot 51, the hook 511 is buckled into the fastening groove 5211, and the locking plate 512 extends into the panel assembly 52 through the through hole 5212 and is locked in the panel assembly 52 by the locking mechanism 53.
[0068] Exemplarily, as Figure 7As shown, there are two buckles 511, which are arranged side by side at the lower part of one side of the inner pot 51. The buckle 511 includes two plate parts arranged vertically, and the two plate parts are connected by a horizontally arranged connecting part. One of the plate parts is fixed on one side of the inner pot 51, and a gap is formed between the other plate part and one side of the interior, and it extends downward. There is one locking plate 512, which is arranged at the central position of the upper part of one side of the inner pot 51. The locking plate 532 is arranged horizontally and is provided with a locking hole 5121. As Figure 8 shown, there are two fastening grooves 5211, which are arranged side by side at the lower part of the panel assembly 52 and correspond to the two buckles 511 one by one. The notch of the fastening groove 5211 faces upward and is formed by extending downward. The other plate part of the buckle 511 is inserted downward from the notch into the locking groove. The through hole 5212 is arranged at the central position of the upper part of the panel assembly 52 and corresponds to the locking plate 512.
[0069] In some embodiments, as Figure 10 shown, the locking mechanism 53 includes a base 531, a locking buckle 532 and a rotating shaft 533. The base 531 is fixed on the panel assembly 52. A hook part 5321 is provided on one side of the locking buckle 532. The other side of the locking buckle 532 is rotatably connected to the base 531 through the rotating shaft 533 and has a first position and a second position relative to the base 531. When the locking buckle 532 is in the first position, its hook part 5321 can extend into the locking hole 5121 on the locking plate 512 (see Figure 12 ), so as to lock the panel assembly 52 on the inner pot 51. When the locking buckle 532 is in the second position, its hook part 5321 can be disengaged from the locking hole 5121 of the locking plate 512 to release the locking of the locking plate 512, so that the panel assembly 52 can be detached from the inner pot 51. The structure of the locking mechanism 53 is simple and reasonable, which is convenient for the disassembly and assembly of the panel assembly 52 and the inner pot �1. Moreover, when the panel assembly 52 is detached from the inner pot 51, it can be used alone as a door body for covering the first opening. When the amount of food to be cooked is small, the inner pot 51 can be used to carry the food for cooking (as Figure 4 shown). When the amount of food is large, the panel assembly 52 is detached from the inner pot 51, and a grill 7 is installed in the cooking cavity 11 to carry the food ingredients for cooking (as Figure 3 shown).
[0070] As Figures 10 to 12As shown, the latch mechanism 53 further includes a release button 534 and an elastic member 535. The release button 534 is disposed on the base 531 and is exposed outside the top of the panel assembly 52 so that the user can press it. When the release button 534 is pressed, the release button 534 pushes the latch 532 to rotate from the first position to the second position, so that the hook portion 5321 of the latch 532 disengages from the locking hole 5121 of the locking plate 512, and the panel assembly 52 can be removed from the inner pot 51. The elastic member 535 acts on the latch 532 to apply a force to reset the latch 532 from the second position to the first position. As Figure 12 shown, the elastic member 535 can be a spring.
[0071] In some embodiments, as Figure 9 and Figure 10 shown, the panel assembly 52 includes a front plate 522 and a lining plate 521 fastened to the inside of the front plate 522. The front plate 522 and the lining plate 521 enclose a chamber. A fastening groove 5211 is provided at the lower part of the lining plate 521, and a through port 5212 is provided at the upper part of the lining plate 521 and communicates with the chamber. A notch is provided at the upper part of the front plate 522. The base 531 extends into the chamber through the notch and covers the notch. The handle 54 is mounted on the front plate 522 by connecting with the base 531. The structure of the panel assembly 52 facilitates the installation of the latch mechanism 53 and the handle 54.
[0072] As Figure 10 shown, the left and right sides of the front plate 522 are bent towards the left and right sides of the lining plate 521 respectively and are connected to the left and right sides of the lining plate 521. The upper and lower sides of the lining plate 521 extend towards the front plate 522 to form a top plate portion and a bottom plate portion respectively, and are connected to the top and bottom of the front plate 522 respectively. In this way, the front plate 522 and the lining plate 521 enclose a chamber. A second notch 5213 is provided on the top plate portion, and the second notch 5213 is connected to the first notch 5221, and the two form an L shape. The top of the base 531 is exposed from the second notch 5213. The release button 534 is disposed on the top of the base 531 and extends into the base 531 to abut against the latch 532.
[0073] The latch 532 has an approximately horizontally placed U-shaped structure, including two opposite side arms and a connecting arm connecting one ends of the two side arms on the same side. One side arm is longer than the other and protrudes, and a hook portion 5321 is provided on the protruding part. The hook portion 5321 can be two and are respectively provided on opposite sides of one side arm. An ear plate is provided in the middle of the connecting arm, and a rotating shaft 533 passes through the ear plate. Two ends of the rotating shaft 533 are respectively connected to opposite side walls of the base 531. In this way, the rotational connection between the latch 532 and the base 531 is achieved. The lower end of the release button 534 abuts against the other side arm of the latch 532. When the release button 534 is pressed downward, it will push the latch 532 to rotate downward, so that the hook portion 5321 on one side arm disengages from the lock hole 5121.
