Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of air fryer equipment, and in particular to an air fryer. Background Art

[0002] An air fryer is a machine that uses air to "fry" food. It primarily uses air to replace the hot oil in the frying pan to cook the food. The hot air also blows away the moisture on the surface of the food, giving the ingredients a similar effect to frying. The air fryer works on the principle of "high-speed air circulation technology." It generates hot air by heating the heat pipes inside the machine at high temperatures. A fan then blows the hot air into the pot to heat the food, allowing the hot air to circulate within the enclosed space. The fat in the food itself is then used to fry the food, dehydrating it and leaving the surface golden and crispy, achieving the desired frying effect. The air fryer's pot is typically designed with a relatively flat structure. Coupled with the presence of a handle, the air fryer as a whole takes up a large amount of space horizontally, making it inconvenient to store and carry. Utility Model Content
