On the basis of the embodiments in the present disclosure, all other embodiments obtained by those ordinarily skilled in the art without inventive efforts fall within the scope of protection of the present disclosure.

As an embodiment, as shown in FIG. 1 to FIG. 3, a top-visible air fryer includes a fryer body 10, a cooking chamber 11 arranged inside the fryer body 10, and a hot air circulation system communicating with the cooking chamber 11. The cooking chamber 11 is adapted to place food to be cooked, and the hot air circulation system is adapted to generate a circulating heat flow and introducing the circulating heat flow into the cooking chamber 11 to heat food inside the cooking chamber 11.

As shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 2, a top of the cooking chamber 11 is provided with a top opening 7111, an inner transparent plate 712 for closing the top opening 7111 is arranged at the top opening 7111, and the inner transparent plate 712 is preferably made of high-temperature resistant transparent materials such as high-temperature resistant transparent glass and high-temperature resistant transparent plastic. By using the high-temperature resistant transparent material to make the inner transparent plate 712, it may be ensured that its own performance is not affected by the high temperature inside the cooking chamber 11 while achieving visibility, and stability and reliability of the performance of the inner transparent plate 712 are effectively ensured.

As shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 2, a heat insulation ring 713 and a decorative ring 714 are further arranged above the top opening 7111. The heat insulation ring 713 is adapted to be arranged between the top opening 7111 and the decorative ring 714, an open pore corresponding to the top opening 7111 is arranged in a middle of the heat insulation ring 713, a lower side of the heat insulation ring 713 is connected to the fryer body 10, and an upper side of the heat insulation ring is connected to a lower side of the decorative ring 714; and a viewing window 7141 corresponding to the top opening 7111 is arranged in a middle of the decorative ring 714, and a visible panel 715 for closing the viewing window 7141 is arranged at an upper opening of the viewing window 7141. The visible panel 715 is made entirely or partially of a transparent material such as transparent glass and transparent plastic. By using the transparent material to make the visible panel, the visibility of the situation inside the cooking chamber 11 can be effectively ensured. By arranging the top opening 7111 at the top of the cooking chamber 11 and arranging the inner transparent plate 712 for closing the top opening 7111 at the top opening 111, the air fryer may achieve visibility of a situation inside the cooking chamber 11, so that a user can intuitively observe a cooking condition of food inside the cooking chamber 11, thereby better cooking the food inside the cooking chamber 11, and effectively improving a cooking effect and user cooking experience; and at the same time, by arranging the heat insulation ring 713 for separating the inner transparent plate 712 and the visible panel 715 as well as the decorative ring 714 connected to the heat insulation ring 713 above the top opening 7111, the air fryer may achieve an increase in a distance between the visible panel 715 and the inner transparent plate 712, so that there is a sufficient heat radiation buffering space between the inner transparent plate 712 and the visible panel 715, so as to avoid burning to the user caused by direct heat transfer of a high temperature in the cooking chamber 11 to the visible panel 715, thereby effectively improving use safety and use experience of the user.

The sealing ring 718 is adapted to play a role in sealing. By sleeving the sealing ring 718 on the outer edge of the inner transparent plate 712 to make the inner transparent plate be in close fit with the air duct plate 716 and the upper core 717, a situation that a circulating heat flow in the cooking chamber 11 flows out to affect cooking efficiency can be effectively avoided, and a situation that the circulating heat flow in the cooking chamber 11 flows out to other positions of the fryer body 10 to affect normal operation of electrical devices inside the fryer body can further be avoided. Meanwhile, by using the elastic high-temperature resistant material to make the sealing ring 718, the influence of high-temperature heat transfer inside the cooking chamber 11 on the sealing ring 718 can be avoided, thereby effectively ensuring sealing performance of the sealing ring 718.

In an optional embodiment, the heat insulation ring 713 is adapted to be made of a high-temperature resistant heat-insulation material such as heat insulation ceramic, an XPS extrusion material, and high-temperature alloy. By using the high-temperature resistant heat-insulation material to make the heat insulation ring 713, not only can the performance of the heat insulation ring 713 be avoided from being affected by high-temperature heat transfer, but also effective heat insulation can be performed, thereby preventing the high temperature in the cooking chamber 11 from being transferred to the decorative ring 714 and affecting the performance of the decorative ring 714.

By arranging the decorative ring 714 as the trumpet shaped structure with the upward opening, a volume of a heat radiation buffering space between the visible panel 715 and the inner transparent plate 712 can be effectively increased while ensuring the visible effect, thereby improving a heat insulation effect.

As shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 2, the visible panel 715 is adapted to be of a bevel structure that slopes in a direction from one side of the visible panel 715 to the other side. By arranging the visible panel 715 as the bevel structure that slopes from one side to the other side, a situation that external liquid, dust, and other impurities are accumulated on the visible panel 15 and thus affect the visibility and overall aesthetics of the air fryer can be avoided, thereby effectively improving the use experience of the user.

As shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 2, the hot air circulation system includes a heating tube 61 and a heat circulation fan. The heating tube 61 is adapted to heat air inside the cooking chamber 11, and the heat circulation fan is adapted to drive heated air to cyclically flow so as to form a circulating heat flow, thereby heating the food inside the cooking chamber 11. In an optional embodiment, the heating tube 61 is adapted to be arranged around the outer edge of the top opening 7111 of the cooking chamber 11, and the heating tube 61 is preferably a light wave tube. By arranging the heating tube 61 as the light wave tube on the outer edge of the top opening 7111, the air fryer can illuminate the interior of the cooking chamber 11 while heating the air inside the cooking chamber 11, thereby improving the visibility and the visible effect inside the cooking chamber 11.
