Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of air fryer technology, and in particular to an air fryer pot body component. Background Technology

[0002] An air fryer is a cooking appliance that primarily heats and bakes food using rapidly circulating hot air. It utilizes air instead of the hot oil found in a frying pan to cook food; the hot air also removes surface moisture, achieving a similar effect to deep-frying. It can be understood as using high-temperature "air" as a medium to "fry" food. Air fryers on the market are mainly controlled by knobs or LCD touchscreens. The cooking process between the pot and heating element is generally divided into two types: a semi-covered type and a covered type. With a semi-covered design, only the front of the pot is visible during cooking. While a covered type allows you to see the entire cooking process, the heating element is housed within the lid, leading to a cramped space and potentially reduced lifespan of electronic components due to heat dissipation issues over time.

[0003] Moreover, traditional glass pots are fixed to the base by a mechanical structure, which requires interlocking structures between the glass pot and the base. This makes the interlocking structure relatively complex, difficult to manufacture, and reduces the yield rate, among other problems, requiring further improvement. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to provide a pot body assembly for an air fryer, which makes it relatively easy to arrange a locking structure between the glass pot body and the base, is easy to manufacture, and has low cost.

[0005] The technical solution of this utility model is: a pot body assembly for an air fryer, comprising:

[0006] The pot body is made of glass and has an open top, allowing the main unit and lid to be detachably assembled together.

[0007] A base is detachably mounted on the bottom of the pot body;

[0008] Its features are:

[0009] Multiple protrusions are formed on the bottom of the pot body using a glue-applying process. Correspondingly, a matching fixing groove is set on the top of the base, allowing the pot body to be detachably mounted on the base through the cooperation of the protrusions and the fixing groove.

[0010] Furthermore, the bottom of the pot body has four protrusions at the four corners, and there are also four corresponding fixing grooves.

[0011] Furthermore, the protrusion is a waist-shaped block with a gradually decreasing cross-section from top to bottom, and correspondingly, the fixing groove is also a waist-shaped groove with a gradually decreasing cross-section.

[0012] Furthermore, the base has a U-shaped cross-section, with handles on both sides, and multiple foot pad mounting slots on the bottom of the base, with foot pads fixed in the corresponding foot pad mounting slots.

[0013] Furthermore, the foot pad is a waist-shaped column with an arc surface.

[0014] Furthermore, the foot pad has a fixing block on its inner side, and correspondingly, there is a matching fixing hole on the inner side wall of the foot pad mounting groove to position and fix the foot pad.

[0015] Furthermore, a baking tray is placed inside the pot body, and fixing holes are provided at the four corners of the baking tray. Correspondingly, a matching silicone part has a fixing protrusion on its bottom surface to match and fix it, so that the baking tray contacts the bottom or side wall of the pot body through the silicone part.

[0016] Furthermore, the silicone part is preferably inverted L-shaped with an arc surface on the outer side. The fixing protrusion is a hemisphere connected to the bottom surface of the silicone part by a reduced-diameter column. The bottom surface has elastic bulges on both sides of the fixing protrusion.

[0017] Furthermore, the elastic bulge gradually shrinks in size from top to bottom in its transverse cross-section.

[0018] Furthermore, the baking tray extends downwards from the end of the part where the fixing hole is set, and the outer side of the corresponding silicone part has a groove to match it, so as to realize the function of snap-fit ​​fixing.

[0019] Finally, a heat insulation groove is provided at the connection between the handle and the base to prevent the heat of the pot body from being conducted to the handle.

[0020] Compared with the prior art, the advantages of this application are as follows: the bottom of the glass pot body is made into a protrusion by applying glue, which is easy to manufacture, low in cost, and does not easily increase the scrap rate of the glass pot body. It is fixed to the base, making it more sturdy and reliable. In addition, the bottom of the pot body is fixed with a base, and the handle on the base helps users reduce the risk of burns. The baking tray inside the pot body prevents food from sticking to the pot body and makes cleaning easy. Attached Figure Description

[0034] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0035] like Figures 1 to 10 An air fryer pot assembly includes: a pot body 1 made of glass, with an open top for detachable assembly of the main unit cover 2; and a base 3 detachably mounted on the bottom of the pot body 1. The key feature is that the bottom of the pot body 1 has multiple protrusions 4 formed by a glue-applying process; these protrusions 4 are glue blocks. Correspondingly, the top of the base 3 has a matching fixing groove 5, allowing the pot body 1 to be detachably mounted on the base 3 through the cooperation of the protrusions 4 and the fixing groove 5.

[0036] The bottom of the pot body 1 has four protrusions 4 at its four corners, and four corresponding fixing grooves 5. The protrusions 4 are waist-shaped blocks that gradually taper from top to bottom. Correspondingly, the fixing grooves 5 are also waist-shaped slots with gradually tapering cross-sections, their dimensions matching each other for more stable positioning. The base 3 has a U-shaped cross-section and handles 7 on both sides. A heat insulation groove 15 is provided at the connection between the handles 7 and the base 3 to prevent heat from the pot body from being conducted to the handles 7, thus preventing burns to the user. The bottom of the base 3 has multiple foot pad mounting grooves 8, preferably four, with foot pads 9 fixed inside each groove. The foot pads 9 are curved waist-shaped columns with fixing blocks 10 on their inner sides. Correspondingly, there are matching fixing holes 11 on the inner wall of the foot pad mounting groove 8. The fixing blocks 10 and fixing holes 11 cooperate to position and fix the foot pads 9 in the foot pad mounting groove 8.

[0037] A baking tray 12 is placed inside the pot body 1. The baking tray 12 is prevented from directly contacting the pot body 1 by silicone parts 14, thus protecting the food from burning and facilitating cleaning of the pot body. The baking tray 12 has fixing holes 13 at its four corners. Correspondingly, the silicone parts 14 have fixing protrusions 6 on their bottom surfaces to match and secure the tray 12 to the bottom or side wall of the pot body 1. Typically, hooks 16 extend downwards from the ends of the fixing holes 13 on the baking tray 12. The corresponding silicone parts 14 are preferably inverted L-shaped with curved outer surfaces to fit snugly against the inner wall of the pot. Furthermore, the outer surface of the silicone parts 14 has grooves 17 that match the hooks 16, achieving a snap-locking function and ensuring the silicone parts 14 are more securely positioned at the corners of the baking tray 12. The fixing protrusion 6 is a hemisphere, which is connected to the bottom surface of the silicone part 14 by a reduced diameter column 19. Furthermore, the bottom surface of the silicone part 14 has matching elastic bulges 18 on both sides of the fixing protrusion 6. The elastic bulges 18 gradually shrink in cross-section from top to bottom. In this way, through the elastic deformation of the elastic bulges 18 and the locking of the fixing protrusion 6, the silicone part 14 is more firmly fixed to the corner of the baking tray 12.
