The present disclosure claims the priority to the Chinese patent application filed with the Chinese Patent Office on Jan. 20, 2022 with the filing No. CN 2022201465519, and entitled “Lifting Multifunctional Air Fryer”, the contents of which are incorporated herein by reference in entirety.
The present disclosure relates to the technical field of kitchen appliances, in particular to a lifting multifunctional air fryer.
The air fryer guides the hot air to flow quickly over the surface of the food, so as to form a crispy surface of the food, thereby achieving a cooking taste similar to deep fried food. At present, the existing air fryers have a single function, and can only fry ingredients by air, such as fried chicken and fries, which are unable to cook ingredients with multiple tastes.
In order to meet a variety of use requirements, some multifunctional air fryers have also appeared. For example, the patent application with the filing number CN202022544512.8 discloses a multifunctional air fryer, which comprises: a lower body, which is equipped with a lower thermal-radiation heating component inside; an upper body, which is equipped with a hot air convection component inside, wherein the upper body can be fitted with or separated from the lower body, when the upper body and the lower body are matched with each other, an air frying chamber can be formed, and the lower thermal-radiation heating component cooperates with the hot air convection component to perform air frying to the ingredients in the air frying chamber; and when the upper body is separated from the lower body, the upper body can keep away from the top of the lower body, so that the lower body provides a cooking chamber with an opening facing upward; and a cooking utensil, which can be arranged in the air frying chamber or the cooking chamber, and is used for accommodating ingredients to be cooked. Although the air fryer can realize the function of frying and grilling, it can only grill one side of the ingredients and can only cook the ingredients in one way, rather than air frying one while grilling another one, thereby lowering the cooking efficiency.
The present disclosure provides a lifting multifunctional air fryer to solve the problem that the existing multifunctional air fryer can only grill one side of the ingredients and cannot cooking different ingredients at the same time.
In order to solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the present disclosure provides a lifting multifunctional air fryer, the air fryer comprises:
