[0002] An air fryer is a new type of household appliance that uses high-speed, high-temperature air circulation technology to fry food. Compared with traditional electric fryers, the food it produces can have 80% less oil. It is easy to clean in daily use, and is both safe and economical, making it very popular.

[0003] Existing air fryers generally consist of a main body, which contains a cooking chamber. The main body is equipped with a hot air assembly that supplies high-temperature air into the cooking chamber. The cooking chamber contains a pot for holding food. The high-temperature hot air generated when the hot air assembly is working heats the food in the pot. The hot air comes into full contact with the food, and the food surface loses moisture quickly in an instant, or the food itself produces oil, resulting in a crispy texture that resembles deep-frying.

[0004] To facilitate real-time observation of the food cooking process, the applicant's earlier Chinese utility model patent, "A Pull-Out Air Fryer for Easy Observation," with patent application number CN201921635965.2 (publication number CN211093505U), incorporates a transparent component at the front of the unit, allowing users to observe the food inside the cooking chamber.
