As an alternative embodiment, as shown in fig. 3 and 5, the cooking appliance of the present embodiment further includes a heating assembly 300, and the heating assembly 300 further includes: a first heating part 310 disposed in the housing 100 or the first inner cavity 110 for heating the first inner cavity 110; the second heating part 320 is disposed in the housing 100 or the second inner cavity 120, and is used for heating the second inner cavity 120.

The first heating part 310 is disposed in the housing 100 or the first inner cavity 110, and is used for heating the first inner cavity 110; the second heating part 320 is disposed in the housing 100 or the second inner chamber 120, and is used to heat the second inner chamber 120. The first heating part 310 and the second heating part 320 may be respectively provided according to cooking manners of the first inner chamber 110 and the second inner chamber 120, for example, in case that the first inner chamber 110 is designed to adopt a cooking manner of an air fryer, the first heating part 310 may adopt a heating mode including the first fan 311 and the first heating member 312, and heat the food material by generating hot wind using the first heating part 310. For another example, in a case that the second inner cavity 120 is designed to adopt a cooking manner of an oven, the second heating part 320 may adopt a heating mode including the second heat generating member 322, and heat the food material by convection of heat generated by the second heating part 320; the food material in the second inner cavity 120 may be heated by the movable heating part 330 in combination with the second heating part. For another example, after the barrel body is moved out of the casing 100, the whole inner cavity is heated by hot air under the action of the first fan 311 and the first heating element 312 to realize the cooking mode of the air fryer, or the whole inner cavity is heated by heat convection under the action of the second heating element 322 and/or the first heating element 312 to realize the cooking mode of the oven. That is, in the present application, a combination of different cooking manners of the first inner chamber 110, the second inner chamber 120, or the entire inner chamber may be implemented by different arrangement manners of the first heating part 310 and the second heating part 320.

As an alternative embodiment, as shown in fig. 3 and 5, the heating assembly 300 of the present embodiment further includes: the movable heating portion 330 is movably disposed in the first inner chamber 110 and/or the second inner chamber 120.

For example, when the active heating portion 330 is positioned within the second lumen 120, the first lumen 110 may absorb heat from a portion of the active heating portion 330 through conduction by the partition 200, i.e., the first lumen 110 may be heated or insulated using the active heating portion 330.

As another alternative, the partition 200 has thermal insulation. For example, the partition member 200 includes a first shell, a second shell, and a heat insulating material layer between the first shell and the second shell, and the heat insulating material layer may be a heat insulating material such as mica sheet. The partition member 200 has thermal insulation properties, and can insulate heat conduction between the first inner cavity 110 and the second inner cavity 120 after being placed in the inner cavities, so as to prevent respective cooking processes of the first inner cavity 110 and the second inner cavity 120 from being influenced by each other.

As an alternative embodiment, the movable heating portion 330 may include at least proximate the partition 200 and proximate the inner wall of the housing 100 at a location within the first interior cavity 110 and/or the second interior cavity 120.

That is, when the dividing member 200 is placed in the housing 100 and then divides the inner cavity into the first inner cavity 110 and the second inner cavity 120, the food material with a smaller heating volume is moved to be close to the dividing member 200, and even if the movable heating portion 330 is located at the top of the second inner cavity 120, the food material in the second inner cavity 120 can be heated by the movable heating portion 330, and the food material in the first inner cavity 110 can be heated or kept warm by the heat conduction function of the dividing member 200. In order to heat the food material with a large volume, the dividing member 200 may be taken out of the housing 100, and the movable heating portion 330 may be bent, rotated, etc. from the top of the second inner cavity 120 to be close to the inner wall of the housing 100, thereby making a larger space in the inner cavity to place the food material with a large volume.

When the cooking appliance of the present application is operated, in a case where the dividing member 200 divides the inner cavity into the first inner cavity 110 and the second inner cavity 120, the first heating part 310 may be operated alone to cook the food in the first inner cavity 110, the second heating part 320 may be operated alone to cook the food in the second inner cavity 120, the first heating part 310 and the second heating part 320 may be operated simultaneously to cook the food in the first inner cavity 110 and the second inner cavity 120 simultaneously, the first heating part 310, the second heating part 320, and the movable heating part 330 may be operated simultaneously to cook the food in the first inner cavity 110 and the second inner cavity 120 simultaneously, and the first inner cavity 110 and the second inner cavity 120 are heated by using the movable heating part 330; in addition, the movable heating portion 330 may be operated separately to keep warm the food material in the first inner cavity 110 or keep warm the food material in the second inner cavity 120.
