In addition, the opening shape of the switch through hole 31a is matched with the longitudinal projection shape of the unlocking switch 35, so that the unlocking switch 35 can slide longitudinally relative to the handle assembly 3.

Specifically, when the second latch 32 is in the locked position, the user presses the unlock switch 35 downward to push the second latch 32 to rotate clockwise about the second rotation shaft 33 with respect to the handle assembly 3, so that the second latch 32 rotates from the locked position to the retracted position and compresses the second return spring 34. At this time, the second locking structure 32a is withdrawn from the motor housing locking hole 51 and retracted into the grip locking hole 11c, so that the lateral movement of the fry vat 6 relative to the lower casing 4 is not restricted. At this time, the user can optionally pull out or push in the fry vat 6 without interference from the locking mechanism.

Specifically, when the second latch tongue 32 is not in the locking position (for example, in the retracted position) and the user releases the external force applied to the unlocking switch 35, the second return spring 34 will push the second latch tongue 32 to rotate counterclockwise by the upward spring restoring force generated by the elastic potential energy accumulated by compression until the second locking structure 32a protrudes from the handle locking hole 11c and is inserted into the motor housing locking hole 51. Meanwhile, the second latch 32 is pushed by the second return spring 34 to synchronously push the unlocking switch 35 to longitudinally slide upwards until the unlocking switch 35 reaches the highest point of the stroke, and at this time, the user cannot pull out the frying barrel 6 due to the interference of the second latch 32.
