To replace a baking tray, simply push the baking tray locking member out of the slot, compressing the spring. After inserting a new baking tray, the baking tray locking member is released, and the spring force causes the plug-in portion to snap back into the slot, securing the baking tray.

[0043] When the baking food making machine needs to be placed or used vertically, the side button 13 is pressed, and the push rod 131 pushes the inclined portion 151 to move inward, thereby causing the transmission member 15 to move downward, and the stopper 152 disengages the outer limit portion 181. At this time, the rotation limit member 18 can rotate. When it is rotated to 90 degrees, the inner limit portion 183 is blocked by the arc-shaped locking protrusion 102 and cannot move further. At this time, it is rotated to the right position, and the side button 13 is released. The side button 13 is reset under the elastic force of the case return spring 14, the thrust of the inclined portion 151 is released, and the transmission member 15 is reset under the elastic force of the transmission return spring 17, so that the stopper 152 moves up and blocks one end of the outer limit portion 181, and the upper baking tray assembly 2 is fixed in the vertical position. Then, after the lower baking tray assembly 3 is rotated to the vertical position, the buckle 5 is locked in the groove and locked, and the upper and lower baking tray assemblies 2 and 3 can be kept in the vertical position.

[0044] When it is necessary to flatten it, press the side button 13 again to rotate the upper baking tray assembly 2 until it is in a horizontal position and then release the side button 13.
