Abstract
Description
An air duct structure with lateral air intake in the side shell and an air fryer Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of air fryer technology, specifically to an air duct structure with lateral air intake in the side shell and an air fryer. Background Technology
[0002] The main function of an air fryer is to provide a healthy and quick way of cooking. Air fryers cook food by circulating hot air, making the food crispy like it is deep-fried, without the need for a lot of oil. This cooking method not only reduces oil intake, but also better preserves the nutrients in the food. With its healthy, quick, multifunctional, energy-saving and environmentally friendly features, air fryers have become a popular cooking tool in modern kitchens.
[0003] However, most air fryers use an integrated lower compartment with a partition between it and the frame. This affects airflow regardless of whether air is drawn in from the top or bottom, making it inconvenient to dissipate heat from the inside. In addition, the lower compartment increases the overall weight of the air fryer, making it less convenient to use. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide an air duct structure and an air fryer with a side shell for side air intake, so as to solve the problem of inconvenience in air fryers when dissipating heat during air intake as mentioned in the background art.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: an air duct structure with lateral air intake through a side shell, comprising an air fryer shell, a bottom plate, and support columns. The bottom plate is provided at the bottom end of the air fryer shell, and the bottom plate extends outward and is flush with the side air fryer shell. Support columns are provided at the bottom end of the bottom plate, and the support columns are symmetrically distributed at the bottom end of the bottom plate. A locking bolt connected to the bottom plate is provided on one side of the support column. A placement groove is provided inside the air fryer shell at one end near the bottom plate.
[0006] Preferably, a limiting plate is provided inside the air fryer shell at one end near the placement slot, and a heat exhaust fan is installed inside the air fryer shell at one end near the limiting plate. The heat exhaust fan consists of a cooling fan and a neutralizing fan.
[0007] Preferably, one end of the exhaust fan is equipped with a controller connected to the air fryer shell, and one side of the exhaust fan is connected to an exhaust pipe.
[0008] Preferably, the air fryer shell is provided with a heat dissipation mesh at one end near the exhaust pipe, and a through hole is provided at the other end of the air fryer shell away from the heat dissipation mesh.
[0009] Preferably, an air inlet groove is provided between the bottom plate and the air fryer shell, and an air expansion port is provided at the bottom end of the bottom plate, with the air expansion ports symmetrically distributed at the bottom end of the bottom plate.
[0010] An air fryer, wherein a placement box is provided inside the placement slot, and an operating handle is connected to one end of the placement box.
[0011] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: The air fryer with a side-mounted shell and side-intake air duct structure can facilitate airflow by opening through holes on the side of the air fryer shell and bottom plate, and the support column can create a gap between the air fryer shell and the tabletop, so as to allow cold air to enter through the through holes. At the same time, the integrated lower partition is eliminated and the limiting plate is reduced, which reduces the obstruction of gas and facilitates the flow of gas inside the air fryer. Cold air can quickly flow into the top of the air fryer shell, and the heat dissipation fan in the exhaust fan draws out the hot air inside. The neutralizing fan neutralizes the intake airflow and hot air inside the exhaust pipe, thereby quickly cooling the air. Then, the air can be discharged to the outside through the heat dissipation mesh. Therefore, the side-intake air duct structure of the air fryer can improve the internal heat dissipation effect.

[0017] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0018] Please refer to Figures 1-4. This utility model provides a technical solution: an air duct structure with lateral air intake using a side shell, including an air fryer shell 1, a bottom plate 2, and support columns 3. The bottom plate 2 is provided at the bottom end of the air fryer shell 1, and the bottom plate 2 extends outward and is flush with the side of the air fryer shell 1. The support columns 3 are provided at the bottom end of the bottom plate 2, and the support columns 3 are symmetrically distributed at the bottom end of the bottom plate 2. A locking bolt 4 connected to the bottom plate 2 is provided on one side of each support column 3. A placement groove 5 is provided inside the air fryer shell 1 near the bottom plate 2, and a limit position is provided inside the air fryer shell 1 near the placement groove 5. Plate 6, an exhaust fan 7 is installed inside the air fryer shell 1 near the limiting plate 6. The exhaust fan 7 consists of a cooling fan and a neutralizing fan. A controller 8 connected to the air fryer shell 1 is installed at one end of the exhaust fan 7. An exhaust pipe 9 is connected to one side of the exhaust fan 7. A heat dissipation mesh 10 is provided at the end of the air fryer shell 1 near the exhaust pipe 9. A through hole 11 is opened at the end of the air fryer shell 1 away from the heat dissipation mesh 10. An air inlet groove 12 is opened between the bottom plate 2 and the air fryer shell 1. An air expansion port 13 is opened at the bottom end of the bottom plate 2. The air expansion ports 13 are symmetrically distributed at the bottom end of the bottom plate 2.
[0019] Referring to Figures 1-4, it can be seen that when an air fryer is in use, the air intake effect is usually poor, making it inconvenient for the air fryer to dissipate heat from the inside. By opening through holes 11 on the side of the air fryer shell 1 and the bottom plate 2, and by creating a gap between the air fryer shell 1 and the tabletop placed on the support column 3, the airflow can be facilitated on the side, allowing cold air to enter through the through holes 11. At the same time, the integrated lower partition is eliminated, and the bottom plate 2 is set as a single-layer structure, which reduces the weight of the air fryer during use. The limiting plate 6 is also reduced, which reduces the obstruction of gas, thus facilitating the flow of gas inside the air fryer. This allows cold air to quickly flow into the top of the air fryer shell 1, and the heat dissipation fan in the exhaust fan 7 draws out the hot air inside. The neutralizing fan neutralizes the intake airflow and hot air inside the exhaust pipe 9, thereby quickly cooling the air. Then, the air is discharged to the outside through the heat dissipation mesh 10. Thus, the side air intake air duct structure of the air fryer can improve the internal heat dissipation effect.
[0020] An air fryer, wherein a placement box 14 is provided inside the placement slot 5, and an operating handle 15 is connected to one end of the placement box 14.
[0021] In summary, the main function of an air fryer is to provide a healthy and quick cooking method. Air fryers use circulating hot air to cook food, achieving a crispy texture similar to deep-frying. Through holes 11 are provided on the sides of the air fryer shell 1 and base plate 2, and the support column 3 creates a gap between the air fryer shell 1 and the tabletop, facilitating airflow on the sides. This allows cold air to enter through the through holes 11, quickly flowing into the top of the air fryer shell 1. The cooling fan in the exhaust fan 7 draws out the hotter air from inside, and a neutralizing fan neutralizes the intake air and hot air inside the exhaust duct 9, resulting in rapid cooling. The air is then exhausted to the outside through the heat dissipation mesh 10. Therefore, the side-entry air duct structure of the air fryer improves internal heat dissipation. Any content not described in detail in this specification is prior art known to those skilled in the art.
