Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of air fryers, in particular to a temperature sensor for an air fryer. Background Art
[0002] With the continuous improvement of people's living standards, air fryers are becoming more and more popular among consumers due to their advantages such as oil-free cooking and easy operation. During the use of air fryers, accurate temperature control is one of the key factors to ensure cooking results and food safety. The common temperature of air fryers is about 200℃, which is higher than the operating temperature of conventional products. Most existing air fryer temperature sensors are difficult to meet the requirements of accurate temperature measurement, have poor high temperature resistance, and low insulation performance. Some temperature sensors on the market may have inconveniences during installation and use, such as loose installation and susceptibility to external interference. Therefore, we have launched an air fryer temperature sensor. Utility Model Content
[0003] The main purpose of the utility model is to provide an air fryer temperature sensor, which can effectively solve the problems in the background technology.

[0006] The mounting device includes a lower mounting frame, the lower front and lower rear of the lower mounting frame are fixedly connected to mounting ear plates, the upper front and upper rear of the lower mounting frame are both provided with sockets, the upper front and upper rear of the lower mounting frame are jointly plugged with a connecting component, the upper middle of the lower mounting frame is provided with a bearing groove, the bearing groove is fixedly connected to a No. 1 anti-slip pad, and the lower mounting frame is located at the lower part of the outer surface of the shell.
[0007] Preferably, the connecting assembly includes an upper mounting frame, the front and rear parts of the lower end of the upper mounting frame are fixedly connected to the insertion rod, the middle part of the lower end of the upper mounting frame is provided with a pressing groove, a No. 2 anti-slip pad is fixedly connected in the pressing groove, and the upper mounting frame is located on the upper outer surface of the outer shell.
[0008] By adopting the above technical solution: the No. 2 anti-slip pad in the pressure groove can increase the friction between the upper mounting frame and the outer shell. When the air fryer vibrates or is disturbed by external forces during operation, the anti-slip pad can effectively prevent the outer shell from sliding relative to the upper mounting frame, ensuring the stable position of the temperature sensor inside the air fryer, thereby ensuring the accuracy and reliability of temperature measurement.
[0009] Preferably, the main device includes a thermistor block, and the front right end and the rear right end of the thermistor block are respectively fixedly connected to the No. 2 wire and the No. 1 wire, the left outer surface of the No. 2 wire and the left outer surface of the No. 1 wire are both fixedly connected to a reinforced copper sleeve, the right end of the No. 2 wire and the right end of the No. 1 wire are both fixedly connected to a terminal, and the thermistor block is installed in the mounting groove.
[0010] By adopting the above technical solution: the reinforced copper sleeve on the left side of the outer surface of the No. 2 wire and the No. 1 wire can enhance the firmness of the connection between the wires and the thermistor block.
[0011] Preferably, the position dimensions of the two insertion rods correspond one-to-one to the position dimensions of the insertion holes.
[0012] By adopting the above technical solution: the position and size of the plug rod and the plug hole correspond one to one, which can ensure the accurate connection between the upper mounting frame and the lower mounting frame. This precise matching method can prevent deviation during the installation process and ensure that the upper and lower mounting frames can fit tightly to the shell.
[0013] Preferably, the structure of the upper mounting frame is the same as that of the lower mounting frame and they are symmetrically distributed up and down.
[0014] By adopting the above technical solution: during the installation process, the symmetrical structure facilitates the installation operation for the operator, and there is no need to distinguish the complex directions of the upper and lower mounting frames, thereby improving the convenience of installation. Moreover, the symmetrical structure can distribute the pressure more evenly when subjected to force, thereby enhancing the clamping effect of the temperature sensor housing.
[0015] Preferably, the position and size of the thermistor block are adapted to the position and size of the mounting slot.
[0016] By adopting the above technical solution, the position and size of the thermistor block are adapted to the installation slot to ensure accurate installation of the thermistor block in the housing, thereby ensuring that the thermistor block can be stably located inside the housing.
[0017] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0018] 1. In the present invention, the thermistor block in the main device can sensitively sense the temperature changes inside the air fryer and convert them into electrical signals, providing accurate data for the temperature control of the air fryer. At the same time, the position and size of the thermistor block are adapted to the installation slot, ensuring accurate and stable installation and reducing measurement errors caused by position deviation. The reinforced copper sleeve on the outer surface of the wire improves the reliability of the connection between the wire and the thermistor block, reduces signal transmission problems caused by loose connection, and ensures stable output of the temperature signal.
[0019] 2. In the present invention, the lower mounting frame of the mounting device is conveniently fixed to the air fryer through the mounting ear plate, providing a stable mounting position for the temperature sensor. The insertion rod of the upper mounting frame is correspondingly plugged into the insertion hole of the lower mounting frame, clamping the outer shell between the upper mounting frame and the lower mounting frame. In addition, the anti-slip pads in the bearing groove and the pressure groove effectively prevent the outer shell from sliding. This design ensures that the sensor will not loosen due to vibration or external force interference during the operation of the air fryer, thereby improving the stability and reliability of the temperature sensor during operation.
