[0024] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0025] refer to Figures 1 to 3 As shown, an air fryer base connection structure includes a glass container 1 and a base 2, and also includes a locking cover 3. The locking cover 3 is provided with a first connection structure. The bottom surface of the glass container 1 extends with a connecting boss 4, which is integrally formed with the glass container 1. The connecting boss 4 is provided with a second connection structure. The base 2 has a through hole 5 corresponding to the connecting boss 4. After the first connection structure on the locking cover 3 cooperates with the second connection structure through the through hole 5, the locking cover 3 is fastened against the bottom surface of the base 2, and the glass container 1 is fixed on the base 2.

[0026] This air fryer uses a connecting structure to connect and fix the base 2 to the glass container 1, realizing the assembly of the two and preventing the base 2 from detaching from the glass container 1. Moreover, after the connection is tightened, when cleaning the glass container 1, even if the glass container 1 is flipped upside down, it can be ensured that the glass container will not detach from the base.

[0027] In this embodiment, the second connection structure includes several swivel protrusions 63 disposed around the connecting boss 4, and the first connection structure includes several L-shaped swivel grooves 73 disposed around the locking cover 3. The locking cover 3 and the connecting boss 4 are fastened together by the L-shaped swivel grooves 73 and the swivel protrusions 63.

[0028] Only one locking cover 3 and one connecting boss 4 are provided. The connecting boss 4 is located in the middle of the bottom surface of the glass container 1. The bottom surface of the base 2 is located around the locking cover 3 and several supporting feet 8 are provided. The height of the protrusion of the several supporting feet 8 is greater than or equal to the protrusion height of the locking cover 3. When the locking cover 3 is at the same height as the supporting feet 8, the locking cover 3 can provide support with other supporting feet 8, or prevent the locking cover 3 from being worn or collided. The several supporting feet 8 can support the base 2, so that the locking cover 3 and the table surface are kept at a distance.

[0029] The base 2 has a structural reinforcing ring 51 extending along the edge of the through hole 5. The structural reinforcing ring 51 protrudes from the upper and / or lower side of the through hole 5. The structural reinforcing ring 51 acts as a reinforcing rib. Since the diameter of the through hole 5 is large, it will reduce the strength of the base 2 near the through hole 5. Therefore, the structural reinforcing ring 51 maintains the strength of the base 2 and makes it less prone to deformation and twisting.

[0030] The connecting boss 4 protrudes downward from the base 2 through the through hole 5. The locking cover 3 includes a cover wall 31 that can be sleeved on the periphery of the connecting boss 4. The second connecting structure is provided on the cover wall 31. A supporting protrusion 32 extends circumferentially on the outer side of the cover wall 31. The locking cover 3 is fastened against the bottom surface of the base 2 by the supporting protrusion 32. The cover wall 31 can be inserted into the through hole 5 and form a clearance fit with the through hole 5. After the locking cover 3 is installed in place, it can play a limiting role. The supporting protrusion 32 abuts against the bottom surface of the structural reinforcing ring 51. In addition, the fact that part of the locking cover is inserted into the through hole 5 can reduce the height of the locking cover 3 protruding to the bottom surface.

[0031] The connecting boss 4 extends into the through hole 5. The locking cover 3 includes a cover wall 31 that can be inserted between the through hole 5 and the connecting boss 4. The second connecting structure is disposed on the cover wall 31. A supporting ring 32 extends circumferentially on the outer side of the cover wall 31. The locking cover 3 is fastened against the bottom surface of the glass container 1 by the supporting ring. This can reduce the height of the locking cover 3 protruding to the bottom surface.

[0032] The base 2 includes a base plate 21 and side plates 22 connected to both sides of the base plate 21. The glass container 1 is placed on the upper side of the base plate 21. The through hole 5 is opened on the base plate 21. The two side plates 22 are attached to or supported on the left and right sides of the glass container 1. The outer sides of the two side plates 22 are also connected to the lifting ears 23. The base 2 and the glass container 1 are lifted by lifting the lifting ears 23.
