Detailed Description

In order to make the present application better understood by those skilled in the art, the following description of the present application will be made in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present application. It will be apparent that the described embodiments are only some, but not all, of the embodiments of the application. All other embodiments, based on the embodiments of the application, which a person skilled in the art would obtain without making any inventive effort, are within the scope of the application.

The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present application.

Most of the air fryers on the market at present are heated by heating pipes from the top, which easily causes lower temperature of the bottom surface of the food, and has poor baking effect, and users are generally required to turn over manually to solve the problem.

Referring to fig. 1 to 4, an embodiment of the present application provides an air fryer 100, and the air fryer 100 is a cooking appliance for heating food using hot air. Air fryer 100 may also be an air cooking device such as an air oven, a fry and bake all-in-one machine, or the like.

Air fryer 100 includes a solenoid coil 10, a magnetically permeable member 21, and a heating fan 22. An electromagnetic coil is arranged in the electromagnetic coil panel 10, and the electromagnetic coil panel 10 can generate an alternating magnetic field under the action of alternating current.

The magnetic conductive member 21 is made of a magnetic conductive material. The magnetic conduction piece 21 is opposite to the electromagnetic coil panel 10, the magnetic conduction piece 21 can cut alternating magnetic lines in a magnetic field generated by the electromagnetic coil panel 10 to generate vortex current, the vortex current enables carriers in the magnetic conduction piece 21 to move randomly at a high speed, and the carriers collide with atoms and rub with each other to generate heat energy, so that the magnetic conduction piece 21 generates heat.

The magnetic conduction piece 21 of the air fryer is opposite to the electromagnetic coil panel 10, and the heating fan 22 is rotatably arranged on one side of the magnetic conduction piece 21, which is away from the electromagnetic coil panel 10, so that the magnetic conduction piece 21 can generate heat in a large area under the action of a magnetic field generated by the electromagnetic coil panel 10, and the heating fan 22 can form heat generated by the magnetic conduction piece 21 into hot air flow in the rotating process. Because the heating fan 22 is located above the electromagnetic coil panel 10, the hot air flow formed by the heating fan 22 can flow rapidly from bottom to top, and the flow mode of the hot air flow is beneficial to rapid heating of the food at the bottom due to the high bottom air speed, so that the problems of low heating efficiency and uneven heating existing in the bottom heating of the existing air fryer are effectively solved. Wherein, the heating fan 22 is located above the electromagnetic coil panel 10, which means that the distance between the electromagnetic coil panel 10 and the ground is smaller than the distance between the heating fan 22 and the ground when the air fryer 100 is normally placed for use.

In some embodiments, the magnetic conductive member 21 may be a ferrous magnetic conductive member, for example, the magnetic conductive member 21 may be formed by using pig iron, and for example, the magnetic conductive member 21 may be formed by using iron alloy such as steel, cast iron, etc. Thus, the magnetic conduction member 21 has good magnetic conduction performance, so that the magnetic conduction member 21 can generate heat under the action of the alternating magnetic field of the electromagnetic coil panel 10, and the manufacturing cost is low.

The magnetic conductive member 21 and the electromagnetic coil plate 10 may be generally in the shape of a pot cross-section, such as when the pot cross-section is circular, the magnetic conductive member 21 may be disk-shaped and may be adapted to the generally annular or circular electromagnetic coil plate 10, which may help the magnetic conductive member 21 generate more heat.

Referring to fig. 5, the thickness of the magnetic conductive member 21 may be D1, D1 may be approximately 1mm to 3mm. For example, D1 may be approximately 1mm, 1.2mm, 1.4mm, 1.5mm, 1.6mm, 1.8mm, 2mm, 2.2mm, 2.4mm, 2.5mm, 2.6mm, 2.8mm, 3mm, or any value between two adjacent values.

In this way, the thickness of the magnetic conductive member 21 is not too thin to reduce the strength thereof, so that the magnetic conductive member 21 is not easy to bend and deform, thereby facilitating the magnetic conductive member 21 to generate heat sufficiently. The thickness of the magnetic conduction piece 21 is not too thick, so that the whole weight of the magnetic conduction piece 21 is not too heavy.

In some embodiments, the magnetic conductive member 21 may be provided integrally with the heating fan 22, which helps to reduce the load of the driving motor driving the heating fan 22, thereby helping to reduce noise and increase the air volume. By reasonably designing the thickness of the magnetic conduction piece 21 to be approximately 1-3 mm, the magnetic conduction piece 21 is facilitated to be guaranteed to have good strength and proper weight.

In some embodiments, referring to fig. 4, the distance between the magnetic conductive member 21 and the electromagnetic coil panel 10 is D2, and D2 may be approximately 6mm to 12mm. For example, D2 may be approximately 6mm, 6.5mm, 7mm, 7.5mm, 8mm, 8.5mm, 9mm, 9.5mm, 10mm, 10.5mm, 11mm, 11.5mm, 12mm, or any value between two adjacent values.

In this way, the distance between the magnetic conductive member 21 and the electromagnetic coil panel 10 is not too small, so that the magnetic conductive member 21 and the electromagnetic coil panel 10 are too close to each other, which is helpful for reducing the heat generated by the magnetic conductive member 21 to be conducted to the electromagnetic coil panel 10, thereby helping to ensure the stability of the operation of the electromagnetic coil panel 10. The distance between the magnetic conduction piece 21 and the electromagnetic coil panel 10 is not too large, so that the distance between the magnetic conduction piece 21 and the electromagnetic coil panel 10 is too far, the magnetic conduction piece 21 is helpful to better induce the alternating magnetic field of the electromagnetic coil panel 10 and generate heat, and the heat generating efficiency of the magnetic conduction piece 21 is helpful to be ensured. By reasonably arranging the magnetic conduction pieces 21 and the electromagnetic coil panel 10, the distance between the magnetic conduction pieces 21 and the electromagnetic coil panel 10 is approximately 6 mm-12 mm, so that the good heating efficiency of the magnetic conduction pieces 21 is guaranteed, and the heat influence of the magnetic conduction pieces 21 on the electromagnetic coil panel 10 is reduced.

In some embodiments, a certain distance is provided between the magnetic conductive member 21 and the heating fan 22, and after the magnetic conductive member 21 generates heat, the heat is conducted to the heating fan 22 through air. The magnetic conduction piece 21 and the heating fan 22 are independently arranged, so that the production and the manufacturing of the magnetic conduction piece and the heating fan are facilitated, and the production efficiency is improved. In addition, the two parts are independently arranged, so that the independent overhaul and the independent replacement are convenient.

In some embodiments, the magnetic conductive member 21 is fixedly connected to the heating fan 22 to conduct heat to the heating fan 22. For example, the magnetic conductive member 21 may be mounted to the heating fan 22 by a connecting member capable of securing by a fastening member such as a bolt. In this embodiment, the magnetic conductive member 21 and the heating fan 22 can transfer heat through the connection member, and the heat transfer efficiency is improved due to the closer distance therebetween.

Specifically, in the above embodiment, the two may be fixed to one body by welding, screwing, fastening, or the like, or the two may be fixed to one body by a fastener such as a screw or a rivet.

Specifically, in the above embodiment, the heating fan 22 may include the plate 221 and the fan blades 222, the number of the fan blades 222 may be plural, and the plurality of fan blades 222 may be connected to form an integral structure, and the integral structure is connected to the plate 221.

The heating fan 22 may include only the fan blades 222, and the plurality of fan blades 222 may be independently connected to the plate 221.

The term "plurality" as used herein means greater than or equal to two, for example, the number of blades 222 may be two, three, four, five, six, seven, or other numbers. In the present embodiment, the number of the fan blades 222 is seven.

The thickness of the fan blade 222 may be D3, D3 approximately 1mm to 3mm. For example, D3 may be approximately 1mm, 1.2mm, 1.4mm, 1.5mm, 1.6mm, 1.8mm, 2mm, 2.2mm, 2.4mm, 2.5mm, 2.6mm, 2.8mm, 3mm, or any value between two adjacent values.

In this way, the thickness of the fan blade 222 is not too thin to reduce its strength, so that it is ensured that the fan blade 222 is not easy to bend and deform, thereby helping to ensure that the heating fan 22 stably provides air quantity. The thickness of the blades 222 is not too thick to cause the overall weight of the heating fan 22 to be too heavy, which helps to reduce the load on the driving structure, thereby helping to reduce noise and increase the air volume. By reasonably designing the thickness of the fan blade 222 to be approximately 1 mm-3 mm, the fan blade 222 is facilitated to ensure good strength and proper weight.

The thickness of the fan blade 222 and the thickness of the magnetic conductive member 21 may be substantially the same, so that the heating fan 22 is convenient to be formed, and the manufacturing difficulty of the heating fan 22 is simplified.

In some embodiments, the magnetic conductive member 21 and the heating fan 22 may be integrally formed, the magnetic conductive member 21 may be used as the plate 221 of the heating fan 22, and the fan blades 222 may be connected to the magnetic conductive member 21.

Specifically, the heating fan 22 may be made of metal, so that the magnetic conductive member 21 can conduct the generated heat to the heating fan 22, so that the heating fan 22 can generate heat, thereby helping to improve the heating effect of the heating fan 22.

The heating fan 22 may be a ferrous fan, for example, the heating fan 22 may be formed of pig iron, and for example, the heating fan 22 may be formed of iron alloy such as steel, cast iron, or the like. Thus, the heating fan 22 is easy to be processed and molded, and the manufacturing difficulty and the manufacturing cost of the heating fan 22 are simplified. The heating fan 22 and the magnetic conductive member 21 may be made of the same material.

In some embodiments, the materials of the magnetic conductive member 21 and the heating fan 22 may be the same, for example, both the magnetic conductive member 21 and the heating fan 22 may be iron structures. Thus, the manufacturing cost of the magnetic conduction piece 21 and the heating fan 22 is reduced, the two parts are made of iron materials, heat can be generated and transferred, the number of parts is reduced, the manufacturing process is simplified, and the production efficiency of the air fryer 100 is improved.

In some embodiments, the fan blades 222 may be located on a side of the magnetic conductive member 21 facing away from the electromagnetic coil panel 10, so as to facilitate designing the distance between the electromagnetic coil panel 10 and the magnetic conductive member 21 without considering the influence of the height of the fan blades 222, and facilitate simplifying the arrangement between the electromagnetic coil panel 10 and the heating fan 22. In other embodiments, the fan blade 222 may be located on the side of the magnetic conductive member 21 facing the electromagnetic coil 10.

In some embodiments, referring to FIGS. 3 and 4, air fryer 100 may further comprise a base assembly 30, and electromagnetic coil disk 10, magnetic permeable member 21, heating fan 22, etc. may be mounted to base assembly 30.

The base assembly 30 may include a housing 33, the housing 33 being provided with an assembly space 31 and a heating space 32, the assembly space 31 and the heating space 32 being in communication, and the heating space 32 may be located above the assembly space 31.

The housing 33 may divide the assembly space 31 and the heating space 32 by its own structure. For example, the case 33 may include an outer case 331 and an inner case 332, the inner case 332 may be disposed within the outer case 331, the inner case 332 may be spaced apart from the bottom of the outer case 331, a space between the inner case 332 and the bottom of the outer case 331 may be used as the fitting space 31, and a space on a side of the inner case 332 facing away from the bottom of the outer case 331 may be used as the heating space 32. The bottom of the inner housing 332 may be of hollow design so that the fitting space 31 communicates with the heating space 32.

The electromagnetic coil panel 10 may be positioned in the assembly space 31, and the magnetic conductive member 21 and the heating fan 22 may be positioned in the heating space 32. In this way, the electromagnetic coil panel 10, the magnetic conductive member 21 and the heating fan 22 are reasonably arranged and assembled at different positions of the base assembly 30, so that the air fryer 100 can blow out hot air flow from the heating space 32.

The heating fan 22 is detachably mounted to the base assembly 30. As such, the cleaning of heating fan 22 is facilitated for the user, and the use of air fryer 100 is also facilitated to be enriched.

For example, when the heating fan 22 is mounted to the base assembly 30, the air fryer 100 may blow a flow of hot air from its top position, causing the flow of hot air to flow from bottom to top. As shown in FIG. 1, the fryer pot 200 of the air fryer 100 is positioned above the heating fan 22 so that the fryer pot 200 receives the hot air flow from the heating fan 22 to heat the food material.

As shown in fig. 6, when the heating fan 22 is detached from the base assembly 30 and the iron pan is placed at the original position of the heating fan 22, the iron pan can be heated under the alternating magnetic field of the electromagnetic coil panel 10 so as to cook food. Wherein, as shown in FIG. 7, iron pan 300 and air fryer 100 may be combined into an electric frying pan; as shown in fig. 8, iron pan 300 cooperates with a steaming rack 400 and together with air fryer 100 may be combined into an electric steamer. In this way, the use of the air fryer 100 is expanded, which helps to increase the frequency of use of the air fryer 100.

In addition, after the heating fan 22 is reassembled with the base assembly 30, the air fryer 100 may continue to generate a flow of hot air through the heating fan 22.

Referring to fig. 3 and 4, the base assembly 30 may further include a driving device 34, and the driving device 34, the electromagnetic coil panel 10, the heating fan 22, and the like may be assembled to the housing 33.

The driving means 34 may be located in the assembly space 31. The body structure 341 of the driving device 34 may be located below the electromagnetic coil disk 10, e.g., the body structure 341 of the driving device 34 may be located on a side of the coil disk 12 facing away from the electromagnetic coil disk 10, helping to reduce the thermal impact of heat generated by the body structure 341 of the driving device 34 on the electromagnetic coil disk 10.

The driving shaft 342 of the driving device 34 may be disposed through the electromagnetic coil panel 10, and the driving shaft 342 is detachably connected to the heating fan 22, so that the driving shaft 342 may drive the heating fan 22 to rotate, so that the heating fan 22 generates the hot air flow.

The driving shaft 342 and the heating fan 22 may be detachably connected by a limiting structure. For example, the heating fan 22 may further include a fitting portion 23, and the fitting portion 23 may be configured as a plate body 221, and the driving shaft 342 may be detachably connected to the fitting portion 23.

For example, the fitting portion 23 may be provided with a through hole, which may be generally semicircular, elliptical, square, or the like. Correspondingly, the end of the driving shaft 342 may be adapted to the through hole, and the end of the driving shaft 342 may be inserted into the through hole, so that a limiting structure such as a limiting pin may be assembled on the end of the driving shaft 342, such that the limiting structure abuts against one side of the assembling portion 23 away from the electromagnetic coil panel 10, and the heating fan 22 may be stably assembled on the driving shaft 342. When it is desired to separate the heating fan 22 from the driving shaft 342, the limiting structure may be removed from the driving shaft 342 to facilitate the removal of the heating fan 22 from the driving shaft 342.

The driving shaft 342 may be an output shaft of a driving motor, and the driving shaft 342 may also be a transmission shaft in transmission connection with the driving motor. In other embodiments, the drive shaft 342 may be another shaft. In the present embodiment, the driving shaft 342 is an output shaft of a driving motor.

The base assembly 30 may also include a pan body carrier 35, the pan body carrier 35 being located in the heating space 32. The pan body carrier 35 may be coupled to an inner wall of the housing 33 and disposed around the heating fan 22, and the height of the pan body carrier 35 is higher than the height of the heating fan 22. The pan body bearing member 35 can bear the pan body, which is helpful for the pan body to be stably arranged above the heating fan 22, so that the heating fan 22 can provide hot air flow for the pan body. Wherein the pan body carrier 35 may be attached to the inner wall of the inner housing 332.

The base assembly 30 may further include a wind wheel 36, the wind wheel 36 being rotatably located in the assembly space 31.

The wind wheel 36 is capable of sucking air in its own axial direction and transporting the air radially outward. The wind wheel 36 has a first air inlet side 361, a second air inlet side 362 and an air outlet side 363, the first air inlet side 361 and the second air inlet side 362 are located at opposite sides of the wind wheel 36, the air outlet side 363 faces the heat dissipation space 330 of the housing 33, and air sucked from the first air inlet side 361 and the second air inlet side 362 can be blown to the heat dissipation space 330 through the air outlet side 363 during rotation of the wind wheel 36.

The wind wheel 36 may be mounted on the driving shaft 342 of the driving device 34, and the wind wheel 36 may be located between the main structure 341 of the driving device 34 and the electromagnetic coil panel 10, for example, the driving device 34 is located on the first air inlet side 361, and the electromagnetic coil panel 10 is located on the second air inlet side 362, so that the wind wheel 36 may radiate heat for both the electromagnetic coil panel 10 and the main structure 341 of the driving device 34.

In some embodiments, the heat dissipation space 330 of the housing 33 may be defined by a support plate of the housing 33. For example, the housing 33 may further include a first support plate 16 and a second support plate 17, where the first support plate 16 is located on the first air inlet side 21, the second support plate 17 is located on the second air inlet side 22, and the heat dissipation space 330 is defined between the first support plate 16 and the second support plate 17. The first support plate 16 is provided with a first through hole 161, the second support plate 17 is provided with a second through hole 171, and the first through hole 161 and the second through hole 171 are communicated with the heat dissipation space 330. In this way, heat generated by the driving device 34 may enter the heat dissipation space 330 from the first through hole 161, and heat generated by the electromagnetic coil panel 10 may enter the heat dissipation space 330 from the second through hole 171.

Air fryer 100 may also include a faceplate 40, wherein faceplate 40 is mounted to base assembly 30, e.g., faceplate 40 may be positioned between solenoid coil 10 and magnetic permeable member 21, and faceplate 40 may cover solenoid coil 10. In this manner, the faceplate 40 helps to space the heat transferred from the magnetic conductive member 21 to the electromagnetic coil panel 10, reduces the thermal influence of the magnetic conductive member 21 on the electromagnetic coil panel 10, and helps to ensure the stability of the operation of the electromagnetic coil panel 10. Specifically, the coverage referred to herein may be non-spaced coverage or may be spaced coverage.

Wherein the panel 40 may be positioned in the heating space 32, the panel 40 may be positioned within the inner housing 332.

In addition, since the panel 40 covers the solenoid coil 10, the panel 40 can receive oil drop dirt dropped from the heating fan 22 or other structures, and a large amount of oil stain dirt is prevented from adhering to the solenoid coil 10. When heating fan 22 is removed from base assembly 30, cleaning of panel 40 may be facilitated to reduce the difficulty of cleaning air fryer 100.

The edge of the panel 40 may abut against the inner wall of the housing 33, for example, the housing 33 may include a fixed side wall 333, the edge 41 of the panel 40 may abut against the inner side of the fixed side wall 333, and the panel 40 and the fixed side wall 833 combine to form a closed state, so that the panel 40 better blocks oil dirt from entering the electromagnetic coil panel 10. Wherein, the fixed sidewall 333 may be a structure of the inner case 332, such that the panel 40 may abut against the inner case 332.

In addition, since the panel 40 is disposed above the electromagnetic coil panel 10, when the heating fan 22 is detached from the base assembly 30, the panel 40 can also be used as a carrying panel of the iron pan, so that the iron pan can be directly placed on the panel 40 for cooking.

The panel 40 may be spaced from the magnetic conductive member 21, which helps to avoid friction with the panel 40 during rotation of the heating fan 22, thereby increasing the load of the driving device 34 and generating larger noise, and also helps to reduce heat transfer from the magnetic conductive member 21 to the panel 40.

The distance between the faceplate 40 and the magnetic conductive member 21 is D4, D4 may be approximately 0.5mm to 2mm, and D4 may be approximately 0.5mm, 0.6mm, 0.7mm, 0.8mm, 0.9mm, 1mm, 1.1mm, 1.2mm, 1.3mm, 1.4mm, 1.5mm, 1.6mm, 1.7mm, 1.8mm, 1.9mm, 2mm, or any value between the two adjacent values. Thus, the distance between the panel 40 and the magnetic conductive member 21 is reasonable, which is beneficial to compact structure and reduce the thermal influence of the panel 40 on the magnetic conductive member 21.

Panel 40 may bear against solenoid coil disk 10, thus helping to provide a more compact arrangement of panel 40 and solenoid coil disk 10 and helping to reduce the overall height of air fryer 100. Wherein the panel 40 may be against the electromagnetic coil panel 10.

The panel 40 may be a microcrystalline panel, which has higher strength, better insulating properties, stable dielectric constant, and better thermal stability.

The thickness of the panel 40 is D5, and D5 may be approximately 4mm to 6mm. For example, D5 may be approximately 4mm, 4.2mm, 4.4mm, 4.6mm, 4.8mm, 5mm, 5.2mm, 5.4mm, 5.6mm, 5.8mm, 6mm, or any value between two adjacent values.

In this way, the thickness of the panel 40 is not so thin as to increase the difficulty of manufacturing the panel 40, thereby contributing to a reduction in the manufacturing cost of the panel 40. The thickness of the panel 40 is not too thick to cause the excessive spacing between the electromagnetic coil panel 10 and the magnetic conductive member 21, thereby helping to ensure the heating efficiency of the magnetic conductive member 21. By reasonably designing the thickness of the panel 40 to be approximately 4 mm-6 mm, the panel 40 is facilitated to simplify the manufacturing difficulty and ensure that the magnetic conduction piece 21 has good heating efficiency.

In some embodiments, where air fryer 100 includes a faceplate 40, mounting portion 23 of heating fan 22 may be protruding from a side of fan blades 222 facing solenoid disk 10, and mounting portion 23 may be threaded through faceplate 40 and removably coupled to drive shaft 342. In this way, the driving shaft 342 can be connected to the mounting portion 23 without excessively protruding the panel 40, so that the driving shaft 342 protrudes from the panel 40 to a lower height or does not protrude from the panel 40 when the heating fan 22 is detached from the base assembly 30, thereby facilitating a smoother placement of the iron pan on the panel 40.

In addition, because mounting portion 23 extends through panel 40, the arrangement of mounting portion 23 and panel 40 is more compact, which helps to reduce the overall height of air fryer 100.

In the air fryer 100 provided by the embodiment of the application, the magnetic conduction piece 21 of the air fryer 100 is opposite to the electromagnetic coil panel 10, and the heating fan 22 is rotatably positioned at one side of the magnetic conduction piece 21 away from the electromagnetic coil panel 10, so that the magnetic conduction piece 21 can generate heat in a large area under the action of the magnetic field generated by the electromagnetic coil panel 10, and the heating fan 22 can form the heat generated by the magnetic conduction piece 21 into hot air flow in the rotating process. Because the heating fan 22 is located above the electromagnetic coil panel 10, the hot air flow formed by the heating fan 22 can flow rapidly from bottom to top, which is helpful for heating the bottom of the food material, and effectively solves the problems of low heating efficiency and uneven heating existing in the bottom heating of the existing air fryer.
