[0045] As Figures 1 to 7As shown, the present application provides a cooking utensil, which comprises a cooking cavity, a driving assembly arranged outside the cooking cavity, and a hot air assembly arranged above the cooking cavity, the cooking cavity is internally provided with a baking cage 10 with mesh holes 23, the hot air generated by the hot air assembly is input into the cooking cavity to cook the food materials in the baking cage 10, the baking cage 10 comprises two fixed plates 11 and a barrel 12 with two open ends, the two ends of the barrel 12 are connected to the fixed plates 11 respectively, the outer side of the fixed plate 11 is connected with a rotating shaft 13, the barrel 12 comprises an upper arc-shaped wall 121, a lower arc-shaped wall 122 and two vertical side walls 123, the two ends of the vertical side wall 123 are connected to the upper arc-shaped wall 121 and the lower arc-shaped wall 122 respectively, the driving assembly is connected to the rotating shaft 13 to drive the rotation of the baking cage 10 to agitate the hot air in the cooking cavity.

[0046] The cooking utensil of the present application adopts a baking cage 10 different from the previous cylindrical one, the barrel 12 of the baking cage 10 has a runway shape in longitudinal section, the barrel 12 only has arc-shaped walls at the top and the bottom, and the side of the barrel 12 has two opposite vertical side walls 123, so that when the baking cage 10 rotates, the two vertical side walls 123 have a larger contact area with the hot air, which is beneficial to the agitation of the hot air, can improve the airflow flowing performance around the baking cage 10, accelerate the airflow circulation, and thus improve the heating efficiency and the heating uniformity of the food materials in the baking cage 10.

[0047] As shown in Figure 1 or Figure 2 The two sides of the barrel 12 are flat, compared with the existing cylindrical barrel, the two vertical side walls 123 can provide a larger thrust to agitate the hot air when the baking cage 10 rotates, the airflow enters the baking cage 10 from the circumferential direction under the driving of the baking cage 10 to cook or heat the food in the baking cage 10, which improves the airflow flowing performance around the baking cage 10, promotes the airflow circulation, and improves the heating efficiency. It can be understood that the baking cage 10 can not only intake air from the circumferential direction, i.e. from the upper arc-shaped wall 121, the lower arc-shaped wall 122 and the two vertical side walls 123, but also preferably from the two fixed plates 11 to assist the air intake, thereby increasing the air intake and further improving the heating efficiency. In order to realize the rotation of the baking cage 10, one of the two rotating shafts 13 on the fixed plate 11 is a driving shaft connected with the driving assembly, and the other rotating shaft 13 is a driven shaft, when the driving assembly works, the rotating shaft 13 as the driving shaft is directly driven by the driving assembly to drive the baking cage 10 to rotate, so that the driven shaft also rotates.

[0048] It should be noted that the two vertical side walls 123 are flat structures, the baking cage 10 is placed at Figure 1 The extension direction of the vertical side wall 123 can be a plumb extension or a certain angle inclined extension, which is determined according to the corresponding conditions of the upper arc-shaped wall 121 and the lower arc-shaped wall 122.

[0049] In a preferred embodiment, the projection of the upper arc-shaped wall 121 onto the horizontal plane at least partially overlaps with the projection of the lower arc-shaped wall 122 onto the horizontal plane.

[0050] Specifically, in one embodiment, the projection of the upper arc-shaped wall 121 onto the horizontal plane completely overlaps with the projection of the lower arc-shaped wall 122 onto the horizontal plane. At this time, the maximum width of the upper arc-shaped wall 121 is equal to the maximum width of the lower arc-shaped wall 122. Figure 1 At an angle, the two vertical sidewalls 123 extend in a plumb line. More preferably, the radii of the circles corresponding to the upper arc-shaped wall 121 and the lower arc-shaped wall 122 are equal, making the grill 10 form a centrally symmetrical structure with a more aesthetically pleasing appearance. In another embodiment, the projection of the upper arc-shaped wall 121 onto the horizontal plane partially overlaps with the projection of the lower arc-shaped wall 122 onto the horizontal plane, and the maximum width of the upper arc-shaped wall 121 is greater than the maximum width of the lower arc-shaped wall 122. Therefore, the two vertical sidewalls 123 extend towards each other from the upper arc-shaped wall 121 to the lower arc-shaped wall 122, creating a space inside the grill 10 that is larger at the top and smaller at the bottom. In another embodiment, the projection of the upper arc-shaped wall 121 on the horizontal plane partially overlaps with the projection of the lower arc-shaped wall 122 on the horizontal plane, and the maximum width of the upper arc-shaped wall 121 is smaller than the maximum width of the lower arc-shaped wall 122. Then, the two vertical side walls 123 extend towards each other from the lower arc-shaped wall 122 to the upper arc-shaped wall 121, so that a space with a smaller upper part and a larger lower part is formed inside the grill 10.

[0051] In all the above configurations, when the grill 10 rotates, the two vertical side walls 123 are conducive to fanning the hot air, and the maximum height of the cylinder 12 is determined by the height between the upper arc wall 121 and the lower arc wall 122, which can accommodate taller ingredients to meet the user's processing needs for large-volume ingredients.

[0052] It is understandable that if the projection of the upper arc-shaped wall 121 on the horizontal plane does not overlap with the projection of the lower arc-shaped wall 122 on the horizontal plane, the upper arc-shaped wall 121 and the lower arc-shaped wall 122 are misaligned, causing the two vertical side walls 123 to extend at an inclined angle. In this case, the maximum height of the grill 10 is reduced, which cannot meet the processing of taller ingredients and limits the types of ingredients that can be processed.

[0053] In a preferred embodiment, the vertical sidewall 123 includes an upper sidewall 124 connected to the upper arcuate wall 121 and a lower sidewall 125 connected to the lower arcuate wall 122. The upper sidewall 124 and the lower sidewall 125 of one of the two vertical sidewalls 123 are connected by a hinge, and the upper sidewall 124 and the lower sidewall 125 of the other are connected by a fastening structure.

[0054] like Figure 3 and Figure 5As shown, the oven cage 10 comprises a base 14 and a cover 15, in this embodiment, the upper arc wall 121 and the upper side wall 124 constitute the cover 15, the lower arc wall 122 and the lower side wall 125 constitute the base 14, the rear side of the cover 15 is hinged with the rear side of the base 14, the front side of the cover 15 can be conveniently turned over to open the oven cage 10 to place or take out food, and the front side of the cover 15 is provided with a buckling structure with the front side of the base 14, after the food is placed into the oven cage 10, the buckling structure is locked to prevent the food from falling out during the rotation of the oven cage 10, after the cooking is completed, the buckling structure is unlocked to turn over the cover 15 to open the oven cage 10 to take out the food, which is simple and convenient to operate.

[0055] Specifically, as shown in Figure 2 the lower side wall 125 of the rear side of the base 14 is provided with a hinge 16, one end of the rotating part of the hinge 16 is connected with a fixed sheet 161, the upper side wall 124 of the rear side of the cover 15 is fixed with the fixed sheet 161 to realize the hinge connection of the cover 15 with the base 14. Preferably, the hinge 16 can adopt a damping hinge 16, so that the cover 15 can be fixed at any position during the opening process, avoiding the situation that the cover 15 is quickly closed due to inertia during the opening and closing process, causing hand injury, component damage, etc.

[0056] Further, as shown in Figure 1 and Figure 3 the lower side wall 125 of the front side of the base 14 is provided with a buckle 17, correspondingly, the upper side wall 124 of the front side of the cover 15 is provided with a matching part for clamping cooperation with the buckle 17. Preferably, the buckle 17 comprises a elastic pressing part 171 and a ring-shaped buckle 172 connected with the pressing part 171, the matching part is a barb 18, the ring-shaped buckle 172 has a clamping position for clamping cooperation with the barb 18 and an unlocking position for being separated from the barb 18 under the driving of the pressing part 171; when it is needed to open the oven cage 10, the ring-shaped buckle 172 is switched to the unlocking position by pressing the pressing part 171, when it is needed to close the oven cage 10, the ring-shaped buckle 172 is clamped into the barb 18 to switch to the clamping position, which is simple in structure and reliable in use.

[0057] Preferably, the upper side wall 124 and the upper arc wall 121 are integrally formed, and the lower side wall 125 and the lower arc wall 122 are integrally formed.

[0058] As shown in Figure 3 and Figure 5 the cover 15 and the base 14 are both of an integral structure, which can improve the structural strength of the cover 15 and the base 14 respectively, and is also conducive to the agitation of the hot air by the oven cage 10, so that the hot air agitated by the vertical side wall 123 can smoothly flow to the positions of the upper arc wall 121 and the lower arc wall 122 to enter the oven cage 10 (the positions of the two vertical side walls 123 also enter the hot air), so that the heat is uniformly distributed in the oven cage 10, thereby improving the uniformity of the heating of the food.

[0059] Further preferably, a reinforcing crossbeam 151 is arranged between the lower ends of the two upper sidewalls 124 of the cover body 15, which can further improve the structural strength of the cover body 15 and reduce the probability of deformation. The edges of the cover body 15 and the base 14 are both provided with thickened flanges 19, which can enhance the structural strength and prolong the service life. The roasting cage 10 is preferably made of stainless steel, which can reduce the probability of deformation and prolong the service life.

[0060] As a preferred embodiment, the fixing plate 11 is provided with a plurality of air inlet holes 111.

[0061] This embodiment can enable the two ends of the roasting cage 10 to assist air intake through the air inlet holes 111, so as to heat the food materials placed near the fixing plate 11, thereby improving the heating effect of the food materials.

[0062] In one embodiment, the plurality of air inlet holes 111 are distributed circumferentially around the rotating shaft 13, as shown in Figure 1 or Figure 2 From the rotating shaft 13 to the radial direction away from the rotating shaft 13, there are multiple circles of air inlet holes 111, which can realize uniform air intake at the fixing plate 11, that is, even if the roasting cage 10 is always rotating, the air intake can cover the food materials near the fixing plate 11, thereby ensuring the heating effect of the food materials at this position.

[0063] It can be understood that the fixing plate 11 can adopt a structure as shown in Figure 1 with holes on the plate-shaped structure, or a structure as shown in Figure 7 In the embodiment shown in Figure 7 , the fixing plate 11 includes an annular surrounding edge 112 and a grabbing bracket 113 connected inside the surrounding edge 112, and the grabbing bracket 113 is in a cross shape. When the cylinder 12 is assembled with the fixing plate 11, the relevant technical personnel can take the fixing plate 11 for installation through the grabbing bracket 113, which is very convenient. Moreover, the grabbing bracket 113 and the surrounding edge 112 form a hollow structure, which is beneficial to auxiliary air intake to improve the heating effect of the end food materials, and compared with the plate-shaped fixing plate 11, it is also beneficial to save materials and reduce weight, thereby reducing the weight of the whole machine to facilitate transportation.

[0064] As a preferred embodiment, the roasting cage 10 is provided with a plurality of groups of partition pieces arranged at intervals along the length direction of the roasting cage 10, and the accommodation part 20 for accommodating food materials is formed between the two adjacent groups of partition pieces.

[0065] As shown in Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown, when multiple food with packaging bags or large volume need to be heated, multiple food can be placed through multiple accommodating parts 20, which not only helps the food to keep upright during the rotation of the roasting cage 10, avoids the friction and collision between the food to cause the packaging damage, but also ensures that all food can be heated sufficiently, thereby improving the heating effect. Compared with the prior art in which multiple food are randomly stacked in the roasting cage 10, the embodiment can realize the orderly placement of the food, and can ensure that each food can be heated to.

[0066] In one embodiment, each group of separators includes two elastic supports 21, the upper ends of the two elastic supports 21 are fixed with the roasting cage 10 after being brought together, and a deformation gap 211 is formed between the lower ends of the two elastic supports 21.

[0067] As shown, Figure 3 By providing the deformation gap 211, the space of the accommodating part 20 is compensated for, when the food bag 22 is large in volume, the food bag 22 can extrude the elastic support 21 after being placed in the accommodating part 20 to make the deformation gap 211 smaller, thereby satisfying the placement of multiple specifications of food bags 22, improving the versatility, and the gap between adjacent food bags 22 can be formed due to the presence of the elastic support 21, which can facilitate the flow of gas to effectively heat both sides of each food bag, avoiding the situation that some food bags are wrapped in the center by other food bags and cannot be effectively heated.

[0068] As shown, Figure 6 The shape of a single elastic support 21 gradually contracts inward and then gradually expands outward from top to bottom on both sides, which can well match the space in the roasting cage 10 and improve the supporting effect of the elastic support 21. The two ends of the elastic support 21 can be fixed to the upper ends of the two lower side walls 125.
