Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of cooking utensil technology, specifically to an adjustable height lifting shelf and cooking utensil. 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 real-world usage scenarios, different users have varying degrees of differences in the types, quantities, and characteristics of the ingredients they are cooking. Furthermore, because the support height of the racks inside some air fryers is relatively fixed, the height of the food they hold cannot be changed, making it unable to flexibly accommodate ingredients of different sizes. This inability to adjust the support height can, to some extent, affect the efficiency of the food's heat absorption, thus impacting cooking time and results.
[0004] In existing technologies, to address the issue of adjusting the height of the storage rack, multiple locking positions are typically installed on the inner wall of the air fryer. This allows the edge of the storage rack to be secured to the inner wall of the air fryer, and the height of the storage rack can be adjusted by changing the upper and lower locking positions. However, in some technical solutions, when the edge of the storage rack is secured to the inner wall of the air fryer, several locking positions may not be fully engaged, making the storage rack prone to tipping over during use. The overall stability and convenience of this technology need further improvement. Utility Model Content
[0005] This utility model provides a height-adjustable lifting storage rack to solve some of the above-mentioned technical problems.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:
[0007] An adjustable height lift-type storage rack includes a bracket with at least one set of lifting components for adjusting the support height of the bracket. Each lifting component has a latching member, a positioning member, a spring-loaded member, and a limiting member. The latching member is movably latched onto the positioning member, and the spring-loaded member is used to maintain the relative movement tendency of the latching member with respect to the positioning member. The lifting component has a locked state and an unlocked state. In the locked state, the latching member is latched onto the positioning member, and in the unlocked state, the latching member can move along the positioning member to change the support height of the bracket.
[0008] The principle and advantages of this solution are as follows: By using a bracket with a lifting component, the support height of the bracket can be adjusted by switching or changing the locking and unlocking states of the lifting component during use. That is, the support height of the bracket can be adjusted in a timely manner according to the different characteristics, volumes, and quantities of the ingredients to be cooked, which helps to ensure the heat absorption efficiency of the ingredients and further improves cooking efficiency and cooking effect. Moreover, compared with the existing technology of attaching the edge of the rack to the inner wall of the air fryer, the use of a bracket can provide a more stable support.
[0009] Preferably, as an improvement, the bracket is provided with an unlocking component, which has a rotating part, and rotating the rotating part triggers the unlocking state of the lifting component.
[0010] Beneficial effects: By adopting the above technical solution, it is easy to reasonably set the unlocking component. By operating the rotating part, the locking and unlocking states of the lifting component can be switched or changed, thereby achieving the requirement of adjusting the support height of the bracket.
[0011] Preferably, as an improvement, the bracket has a lifting plate and a base plate, with the lifting assembly located between the lifting plate and the base plate; the snap-fit member is located on the lifting plate, the limiting member is located on the base plate, the positioning member is detachably connected to the limiting member, the main structure of the positioning member is located inside the limiting member, an insertion gap is formed between the positioning member and the limiting member, the insertion gap is used for the insertion of the end of the snap-fit member; the positioning member has at least two snap-fit positions, the snap-fit member has a snap-fit portion, and the snap-fit portion is adapted to the corresponding snap-fit position.
[0012] Beneficial effects: The above technical solution facilitates the reasonable arrangement of the lifting components. By setting at least two locking positions, it is easy to adjust the relative locking distance between the locking parts and the positioning parts as needed, that is, to adjust the support height of the bracket in a timely manner as needed.
[0013] Preferably, as an improvement, the spring-loaded element is sleeved on the positioning element, and the spring-loaded element is elastically compressed between the snap-fit element and the limiting element.
[0014] Beneficial effects: The above technical solution not only facilitates the installation and arrangement of the spring-loaded parts, but also makes it easier to achieve the spring-loaded movement so that the snap-fit parts maintain a relative movement trend with the positioning parts.
[0015] Preferably, as an improvement, the unlocking component includes a bolt, one end of which is threadedly connected to the rotating part, and the other end of which movably abuts against one of the positioning members in a set of lifting components. The end of the rotating part movably abuts against another positioning member. The positioning member has a deformation gap, and a reset member is provided between the inner walls of the positioning member.
[0016] Beneficial effects: The above solution facilitates the unlocking of the lifting component by operating the unlocking component, thereby enabling the adjustment of the relative locking distance between the locking and positioning components. In other words, the support height of the bracket can be adjusted in a timely manner according to the needs.
[0017] Preferably, as an improvement, the limiting member has a hole for the end of a bolt or rotating part to be inserted through and movably abut against the corresponding positioning member.
[0018] Beneficial effects: By adopting the above solution, it is easy to achieve elastic deformation of the positioning element by pressing the end of the bolt or rotating part, that is, to temporarily disengage the locking part from the corresponding locking position. At this time, the locking part moves upward until the locking part re-locks into another locking position located above. That is, it is easy to adjust the relative locking distance between the locking part and the positioning element as needed.
[0019] This application also provides a cooking appliance, including a storage rack and an adjustable height lift-up storage rack, the storage rack being supported on a bracket.
[0020] Preferably, as an improvement, the lifting plate and / or the base plate are provided with suction cups.
[0021] Beneficial effects: The above solution allows for the upward attachment and fixation of the shelf using suction cups, as well as downward attachment and fixation to the bottom of the cooking cavity of the cooking appliance, further enhancing the stability of the support connection.

[0033] Example 1
[0034] This embodiment is basically as shown in the appendix. Figure 1 -Appendix Figure 6 As shown:
[0035] An adjustable height lifting shelf includes a bracket 100, on which at least one set of lifting components 200 are provided. The lifting components 200 are used to adjust the support height of the bracket 100. In this embodiment, the number of lifting components 200 on the bracket 100 is preferably two sets, and the structures of the two sets of lifting components 200 are the same. Each set has two basically symmetrically arranged lifting components 200.
[0036] Specifically, the lifting assembly 200 has a snap-fit member 210, a positioning member 220, a spring-loaded member 230, and a limiting member 240. The snap-fit member 210 is snapped onto the positioning member 220 and can move up and down. The spring-loaded member 230 is used to keep the snap-fit member 210 moving relative to the positioning member 220.
[0037] The lifting assembly 200 has a locked state and an unlocked state. In the locked state, the latching member 210 is latched onto the positioning member 220. In the unlocked state, the latching member 210 can move along the positioning member 220 to change the support height of the bracket 100.
[0038] To facilitate timely adjustment of the support height of the adjustable bracket 100, especially to raise the support height of the adjustable bracket 100, in this embodiment, the bracket 100 is provided with an unlocking component 300. The unlocking component 300 has a rotating part 310. Rotating the rotating part 310 triggers the unlocking state of the lifting component 200.
[0039] In the above technical solution, the bracket 100 has a lifting plate 110 and a base plate 120, and the lifting assembly 200 is located between the lifting plate 110 and the base plate 120; the snap-fit member 210 is located on the lifting plate 110, the limiting member 240 is located on the base plate 120, and the positioning member 220 is detachably connected to the limiting member 240. The main structure of the positioning member 220 is located inside the limiting member 240, and an insertion gap 201 is formed between the positioning member 220 and the limiting member 240. The insertion gap 201 is used for the insertion of the end of the snap-fit member 210; the positioning member 220 has at least two snap-fit positions 221, and the snap-fit member 210 has a snap-fit portion 211, which is adapted to the corresponding snap-fit position 221. Preferably, in this embodiment, the side wall of the positioning member 220 is provided with three snap-fit positions 221, and the three snap-fit positions 221 are arranged in an upper, middle, and lower manner, corresponding to the support height of three gear positions.
[0040] Specifically, the lifting plate 110 is located above the base plate 120, the snap-fit part 210 is arranged facing the base plate 120, that is, the snap-fit part 210 is arranged downward, and the limiting part 240 is arranged facing the lifting plate 110, that is, the limiting part 240 is arranged upward; the main structure of the snap-fit part 210, the limiting part 240 and the positioning part 220 are all cylindrical structures, which facilitates their assembly or relative movement.
[0041] The limiting member 240 has a threaded hole 241, and the positioning member 220 has a mounting hole 222, which corresponds to the threaded hole 241. In actual assembly, the positioning member 220 and the limiting member 240 are assembled and fixedly connected by suitable screws or other screw structures.
[0042] The spring-loaded member 230 is sleeved on the positioning member 220. The spring-loaded member 230 is elastically compressed between the snap-fit member 210 and the limiting member 240. This not only facilitates the installation and arrangement of the spring-loaded member 230, but also facilitates the rebound to maintain the relative movement tendency of the snap-fit member 210 and the positioning member 220, that is, to maintain the upward movement tendency of the snap-fit member 210. Preferably, the spring-loaded member 230 is a spring.
[0043] To facilitate the operation of the unlocking component 300 to trigger the unlocking state of the lifting component 200, thereby adjusting the relative engagement distance between the engaging component 210 and the positioning component 220, i.e., to adjust the support height of the bracket 100 in a timely manner as needed, in this embodiment, the unlocking component 300 includes a bolt 320. One end of the bolt 320 is threadedly connected to the rotating part 310, and the other end of the bolt 320 movably abuts against one of the positioning components 220 in a set of lifting components 200. The end of the rotating part 310 movably abuts against another positioning component 220. The positioning component 220 has a deformation gap 223, and a reset component 224 is provided between the inner walls of the positioning component 220.
[0044] Specifically, the bolts 320 and the rotating part 310 are arranged horizontally, as shown in the attached figure. Figure 3 As shown, the right end of the bolt 320 has a threaded section 321, and the left end of the rotating part 310 has an internal thread 311. The threaded connection between the bolt 320 and the rotating part 310 is achieved through the matching threaded section 321 and internal thread 311.
[0045] The main structure of the positioning member 220 includes two positioning pieces 225, with a snap-fit position 221 arranged on one of the positioning pieces 225. There is a distance or gap between the two positioning pieces 225, which forms the deformation gap 223 of the positioning member 220. A reset member 224 is arranged in the area between the free ends of the two positioning pieces 225. Preferably, the reset member 224 is a spring, which is used to maintain the downward movement tendency of the lower ends of the two positioning pieces 225.
[0046] Furthermore, the limiting member 240 is provided with a hole 242, which is used for the end of the bolt 320 or the rotating part 310 to be movably inserted and abut against the corresponding positioning member 220.
[0047] The side wall of the positioning member 220, that is, the positioning piece 225 of the positioning member 220, has an abutting end face 226, and the end of the bolt 320 or the rotating part 310 can be movably abutting against the corresponding abutting end face 226.
[0048] Example 2
[0049] This embodiment is basically as shown in the appendix. Figure 1 -Appendix Figure 8 As shown:
[0050] A cooking appliance includes a shelf 400 and a height-adjustable lift shelf, the shelf 400 being supported on a bracket 100.
[0051] Furthermore, suction cups 130 are provided on the lifting plate 110 and / or the base plate 120. The suction cups 130 are used to attach the shelf 400 upwards and to attach it downwards to the bottom of the cooking cavity of the cooking appliance, thereby further improving the stability of the support connection.
[0052] The specific principle and usage process of this utility model are as follows:
[0053] When the support height of the bracket 100 is to be increased, the rotating part 310 is turned counterclockwise based on the thread direction. At this time, the distance between the bolt 320 and the rotating part 310 increases, that is, the overall length of the bolt 320 and the rotating part 310 increases, so that the corresponding ends of the bolt 320 and the rotating part 310 abut against the side wall of the lower section of the positioning member 220. At this time, the resetting member 224 in the positioning member 220 is compressed and deformed inward due to the extrusion force. At this time, the deformation gap 223 on the positioning member 220 becomes smaller, and under the elastic force of the spring member 230, the locking member 210 moves upward until it locks into a locking position 221 located above. During this process, the lifting plate 110 carries the shelf 400 and rises synchronously, thus completing the increase of the support height of the bracket 100 to adapt to different usage needs.
[0054] When you want to lower the support height of the bracket 100, apply external force to the shelf 400 and the lifting plate 110. The locking piece 210 gradually moves down until it is re-locked at the locking position 221 located below, thus completing the reduction of the support height of the bracket 100. If necessary, the overall length of the adjusting bolt 320 and the rotating part 310 can also be adjusted to match the adjustment of the support height of the bracket 100.
[0055] It should be noted that in this embodiment, the other internal structures of the cooking appliance and their corresponding control structures are existing technologies, and their structures and principles will not be described in detail here.
[0056] The above descriptions are merely embodiments of this utility model. Commonly known technical solutions and / or characteristics are not described in detail here. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the technical solution of this utility model. These modifications and improvements should also be considered within the scope of protection of this utility model, and will not affect the effectiveness of the implementation of this utility model or the practicality of the patent. The scope of protection claimed in this application should be determined by the content of its claims, and the specific embodiments described in the specification can be used to interpret the content of the claims.
