Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of cooking appliance technology, specifically to an air fryer with a detachable handle. Background Technology
[0002] An air fryer primarily uses air instead of the hot oil in a frying pan to gradually cook food. Simultaneously, the hot air removes surface moisture, achieving a similar effect to deep-frying. The basic working principle of an air fryer is "high-speed air circulation technology." Hot air is generated by heating elements inside the machine at high temperatures. A fan then blows this hot air into the fryer to heat the food. The hot air circulates within the enclosed space, using the food's own oils to fry it, thus dehydrating the food and resulting in a golden-brown, crispy surface, achieving a deep-frying effect.
[0003] In existing technologies, to reduce the overall packaging size of products, handles are typically detachably attached to the pot body, facilitating removal and installation, thus reducing the overall packaging size. While this approach achieves the desired effect of easy disassembly and smaller packaging to some extent, in some solutions, due to design and implementation factors, handle removal is quite laborious. In practical use, especially when the cooking pot assembly of the air fryer is placed in a dishwasher or refrigerated after removal, the handle is prone to being lost. Therefore, the overall structure needs further improvement and optimization to address these technical issues. Utility Model Content
[0004] This invention provides an air fryer with a detachable handle to solve the above-mentioned technical problems.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:
[0006] An air fryer with a detachable handle includes a pot body having a cooking cavity. A pot assembly is adapted to be disposed within the cooking cavity. A handle is detachably connected to the pot assembly, and the pot assembly has a locking cavity. A portion of the handle is adapted to lock into the locking cavity. The handle is provided with a locking assembly, which includes an unlocking component, a lever assembly, and a resilient hook. The lever assembly is rotatably mounted on the handle. A locking position is provided at the locking cavity, and the resilient hook is adapted to the locking position. The lever assembly includes a horizontal arm and a vertical arm, with the lever arm of the horizontal arm being longer than that of the vertical arm. The unlocking component is disposed on the horizontal arm. When the unlocking component is moved downwards or upwards, it drives the lever assembly to rotate, causing the resilient hook to rotate and disengage from the locking position.
[0007] The principle and advantages of this solution are: by arranging snap-fit components, a detachable connection between the handle and the pot assembly can be achieved, which facilitates the reduction of the overall packaging size of the product by removing the handle during packaging; moreover, by optimizing the structure of the lever assembly, the relationship between the lever arm and torque during the unlocking process is made more reasonable, making it easier and more convenient for users to unlock the pot.

[0012] Preferably, as an improvement, the reset member is located below the transverse arm, and the end of the elastic hook is arranged facing the handle; when the unlocking member is moved downward, the unlocking member drives the lever assembly to rotate and causes the elastic hook to rotate away from the handle, so that the elastic hook disengages from the locking position.
[0013] Beneficial effects: By adopting the above technical solution, when the unlocking component is moved downward, it is easy to realize the separation of the elastic hook from the locking position.
[0014] Preferably, as an improvement, the reset member is located above the transverse arm, and the end of the elastic hook is arranged away from the handle; when the unlocking member is moved upward, the unlocking member drives the lever assembly to rotate and causes the elastic hook to rotate towards the handle, so that the elastic hook disengages from the locking position.
[0015] Beneficial effects: By adopting the above technical solution, when the unlocking component is moved upward, it is easy to realize the separation of the elastic hook from the locking position.
[0016] Preferably, as an improvement, the handle is provided with a guide groove, part of the structure of the unlocking member is exposed outside the guide groove, and the movement path of the unlocking member is limited to the guide groove.
[0017] Beneficial effects: The above technical solution not only facilitates the reasonable arrangement of the unlocking components, but also makes it easier to limit the movement path of the unlocking components, making the overall structural design more compact and reasonable.

[0048] An air fryer with a detachable handle includes a pot body 100, the pot body 100 having a cooking cavity 101, a pot assembly 110 adapted to be arranged in the cooking cavity 101, and a handle 120 detachably connected to the pot assembly 110.
[0049] The upper part of the outer side of the pot assembly 110 has a locking cavity 102, and part of the structure of the handle 120 is adapted to be locked in the locking cavity 102; the handle 120 is provided with a locking assembly 130, which has an unlocking part 131, a lever assembly 140 and an elastic hook 150, and the lever assembly 140 is rotatably mounted on the handle 120; the locking cavity 102 is provided with a locking position 103, and the elastic hook 150 is adapted to the locking position 103.
[0050] In the above technical solution, the lever assembly 140 includes a transverse arm 141 and a longitudinal arm 142. The transverse arm 141 and the longitudinal arm 142 are connected in an L-shape, and the lever arm of the transverse arm 141 is longer than the lever arm of the longitudinal arm 142. The unlocking member 131 is located on the outer end of the transverse arm 141. When the unlocking member 131 is moved downward or upward, the unlocking member 131 drives the lever assembly 140 to rotate and drives the elastic hook 150 to rotate, so that the elastic hook 150 disengages from the locking position 103, thereby removing the handle 120 from the pot assembly 110.
[0051] Specifically, a snap-fit seat 121 is provided on the side of the handle 120 near the pot assembly 110. Snap-fit ribs 122 are provided on both sides of the snap-fit seat 121.

The upper and lower ends of the reset member 160 are respectively adapted to limit the arrangement. The end of the elastic hook 150 is arranged towards the handle 120, that is, the end of the elastic hook 150 has an elastic claw 151, and the elastic claw 151 is arranged towards the direction close to the handle 120. When the unlocking member 131 is moved downward, the unlocking member 131 drives the lever group 140 to rotate and drives the elastic hook 150 to rotate away from the handle 120, so that the elastic hook 150 disengages from the locking position 103 on the outside of the locking cavity 102.
[0055] Specifically, when the unlocking component 131 is moved downward, the unlocking component 131 drives the horizontal arm 141 to rotate downward with the pivot 123 as the relative fulcrum. Then, the horizontal arm 141 drives the vertical arm 142 to rotate outward until the elastic hook 150 disengages from the locking position 103. The entire handle 120 can then be pulled upward from the locking cavity 102.
[0056] In this embodiment, a guide groove 124 is provided on the handle, a portion of the structure of the unlocking member 131 is exposed outside the guide groove 124, and the movement path of the unlocking member 131 is limited to the guide groove 124.
[0057] Furthermore, a top cover 105 is adapted to be provided on the pot body 100, and there is a gap between the edge of the top cover 105 and the pot body 100.
[0058] To solve or avoid the technical problem that the handle 120 is easily lost after disassembly, in this embodiment, the pot body 100 is provided with a hanging bracket 170, which is used to support and place the handle 120.
[0059] The bracket 170 has an installation slot 171, and the top of the pot body 100 has an installation post 106, which is adapted to the installation slot 171.
[0060] Specifically, the mounting slot 171 is located at the top of the bracket 170, and the bracket 170 has a storage opening 172 at the end.
[0061] To avoid unnecessary movement between the handle 120 and the mounting post 106, and to achieve fixed-point or positional installation of the handle 120, the cross-section of the mounting post 106 is rectangular, trapezoidal, triangular, or prismatic.
[0062] It should be noted that the other internal structures of the air fryer and their corresponding control structures in this embodiment are existing technologies, and their detailed structures and principles will not be described here.

[0065] The difference between this embodiment and Embodiment 1 is that the arrangement of the lever assembly 140 and the reset member 160 is different, and correspondingly, the arrangement of the locking position 103 is also different.
[0066] Specifically, the reset member 160 is located above the transverse arm 141, and the upper and lower ends of the reset member 160 are respectively adapted to limit the arrangement. The end of the elastic hook 150 is arranged away from the handle 120, that is, the end of the elastic hook 150 has an elastic claw 151, and the elastic claw 151 is arranged in the direction away from the handle 120. When the unlocking member 131 is moved upward, the unlocking member 131 drives the lever assembly 140 to rotate and drives the elastic hook 150 to rotate in the direction closer to the handle 120, so that the elastic hook 150 disengages from the locking position 103. The locking position 103 is located inside the locking cavity 102.
[0067] Specifically, when the unlocking component 131 is moved upward, the unlocking component 131 drives the horizontal arm 141 to rotate upward with the pivot 123 as the relative fulcrum. Then, the horizontal arm 141 drives the vertical arm 142 to rotate inward until the elastic hook 150 disengages from the locking position 103, and the entire handle 120 can be pulled upward from the locking cavity 102.
[0068] The above descriptions are merely embodiments of this utility model. Commonly known technical solutions and / or characteristics are not described in detail here.
