This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240049909 titled 'ADVANCED AIR FRYER
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes an air-based fryer that includes a housing with a cooking chamber, a basket for holding food items during cooking, an air guiding element located above the basket, an air mover for circulating air within the cooking chamber, and a heater for heating the circulated air.
- The air-based fryer has a cooking chamber where food items are placed in a basket for cooking.
- An air guiding element is positioned above the basket to direct the flow of air.
- An air mover circulates the air within the cooking chamber, directing it towards the air guiding element.
- The air guiding element then guides the air downwards through the basket.
- A heater is used to heat the circulated air, ensuring even cooking.
Potential applications of this technology:
- Cooking food items using hot air instead of oil, providing a healthier alternative to traditional frying methods.
- Suitable for frying a variety of food items such as french fries, chicken wings, and vegetables.
- Can be used in both residential and commercial kitchens.
Problems solved by this technology:
- Reduces the need for excessive oil usage in frying, resulting in healthier and less greasy food.
- Provides a safer cooking method by eliminating the risk of hot oil splatters and spills.
- Offers a more energy-efficient cooking process compared to traditional deep frying.
Benefits of this technology:
- Healthier cooking option as it requires little to no oil.
- Faster cooking times due to the circulation of hot air.
- Easy to use and clean, with removable parts for convenience.
- Safer cooking environment without the risk of oil-related accidents.
- Energy-efficient operation, reducing electricity consumption.
