[0036] Furthermore, the lid 6 is provided with a vent 12, through which some heat is released to prevent excessive pressure inside the pot body 1 and ensure safe use.

[0037] When in use, the pot body 1 can be placed on a heating source for heating, such as a gas stove or induction cooker, depending on the material of the pot body 1. The circulating fan blade 4 can circulate the hot air inside the pot body 1 to improve the evenness of food heating.

[0038] The cooking appliance also includes a heating element for heating food inside the pot body 1. In this embodiment, the heating element is located between the circulating fan blade 4 and the side wall of the pot body 1. The heating element is mounted on the shell and is a heating tube 3. Furthermore, the heating tube 3 is spirally arranged, achieving a longer heating path within a smaller space, improving space utilization and enhancing the heating effect on the food. The heat generated by the heating element is quickly converted into hot air by the circulating fan blade 4 and blown into the pot body 1, achieving rapid heating of the food inside the pot body 1, improving heating efficiency, and resulting in a compact structure. With the heating element installed, the pot body 1 has its own heating function and does not require the use of other external heating sources; the cooking appliance can be used independently.

[0039] Furthermore, the housing is provided with an air guide shroud 13, the opening of which faces the pot body 1. In this embodiment, the air guide shroud 13 covers the outside of the circulating fan blades 4 and the heating element, reflecting hot air into the pot body 1 to heat the food inside, reducing heat loss and improving cooking efficiency.

[0040] Furthermore, the drive motor 5 is located inside the housing, and the output end of the drive motor 5 is connected to the circulating fan blade 4 through the air guide shroud 13. The air guide shroud 13 reduces heat transfer to the drive motor 5, lowers the ambient temperature of the drive motor 5, and improves the service life of the drive motor 5.

[0041] The handle component is detachably connected to the pot body component. This facilitates separate cleaning of the pot body component, improving cleaning convenience, and allows for separate storage, reducing space occupation. Specifically, the handle component has buckles 14 on both sides, and the pot body 1 has corresponding locking blocks 15 on both sides. The buckles 14 include movable retaining rings, which engage with the locking blocks 15 after rotation, thus connecting the handle component and the pot body component. The structure is simple and easy to disassemble.

[0042] The handle 8 is provided with a hook 10 at its end. This allows the cooking appliance to be mounted on the wall, thereby saving kitchen space and improving storage convenience.

[0043] The pot body 1 is made of metal such as cast iron or aluminum, which has excellent thermal conductivity and can heat food quickly and evenly. Alternatively, the pot body 1 can be made of ceramic, which preserves the original flavor of the food, improves the cooking effect, and has good heat retention.

[0044] The pot body 1 is equipped with a baking tray 2, which has multiple oil drain holes. The baking tray 2 can support food, making it easier to put and take it out, and can also filter excess oil through the oil drain holes, preventing food from being soaked in oil and improving the taste of the cooked food.

[0045] The handle 8 is an integral part of the housing, which improves the overall structural strength, reduces the number of parts, saves costs, and makes it easier to move the cooking utensil.

[0046] The handle 8 has a receiving hole for the power cord 9 to pass through. The power cord 9 is connected to the control component 7, which is mounted on the housing. The control component 7 is electrically connected to both the drive motor 5 and the heating element. The control component 7 includes a knob or a button. The knob controls the operating state of the drive motor 5, adjusts its speed, and regulates the airflow to ensure optimal cooking results. The button controls the heating element to operate or stop, ensuring proper heating of the food.

[0047] In an optional embodiment, a transparent window is provided on the pot lid 6, which can also be used to observe the cooking status of the food.

[0048] This cooking appliance reduces the number of other parts and the overall size of the appliance by directly connecting the handle to the pot body, thus saving space, making it easier to store, and improving ease of use. A circulating fan 4 is installed on one side of the pot body; when heating food, the fan 4 generates hot air and blows it onto the food, achieving air-frying.

[0049] Example 2

[0050] Reference Figure 5 As shown, the cooking appliance also includes a heating base 16, with the heating element disposed within the heating base 16, and the pot body 1 placed on the heating base 16. In other embodiments, the heating base can be directly fixed to the bottom or side of the pot body 1 to heat the pot body 1. When the heating element is working, it heats the pot body 1, and the pot body 1 conducts heat into its interior, thereby heating the food inside the pot body 1. The circulating fan 4 operates under the drive of the drive motor 5, thereby forming circulating hot air within the pot body 1 to achieve air-frying of food.

[0051] Specifically, the heating element is either a gas stove or an electromagnetic coil 17. When the heating element is an electromagnetic coil 17, it is installed inside the heating base 16. The pot body 1 is made of magnetic metal. The pot body 1 is placed on the heating base 16 and corresponds to the position of the electromagnetic coil 17. When the electromagnetic coil 17 is working, it heats the pot body 1, which then conducts heat into the pot body 1, thereby heating the food inside. Furthermore, the bottom of the pot body 1 is flat to ensure that heat is evenly distributed across the entire bottom, avoiding localized overheating or uneven heating, and ensuring the quality and taste of the cooked food.

[0052] Furthermore, a wireless charging transmitter 18 is installed inside the heating base 16, and a wireless charging receiver and a lithium battery 19 are provided inside the housing. The wireless charging receiver is connected to the lithium battery 19. The wireless charging transmitter 18 charges the lithium battery 19, which in turn provides power to the drive motor 5 and other electronic devices such as the control panel. The drive motor 5 is a DC motor, ensuring the normal operation of the circulating fan 4, thereby forming circulating hot air inside the pot body 1 to achieve air frying of food and improve the cooking efficiency.

[0053] Furthermore, the control panel is used to control the heating time and power of the electromagnetic coil 17 to meet the cooking needs of different foods and expand its applicability.

[0054] In this embodiment, the air guide shroud 13 is installed on the outside of the circulating fan blade 4 to reflect the wind generated by the circulating fan blade 4 into the pot body 1, reducing the amount of air leakage and ensuring that sufficient hot air circulates in the pot body 1, thereby improving the cooking efficiency of food.

[0055] The cooking appliance in this embodiment can be wirelessly charged, meeting the needs of outdoor picnics or air-frying food using a gas stove, further expanding its application range and satisfying the needs of various scenarios. By setting the pot body and heating element as separate structures, the convenience of maintenance is improved, and it is easier to disassemble and assemble, making it convenient to carry and store.

[0056] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model.
