Abstract: The present technology provides a multi-purpose cooking apparatus that provides simultaneous smokeless grilling for food products and air frying for food products utilizing the same fan and heating elements. A lower portion of the apparatus includes an enclosed air fryer cooking chamber with a closable door. The air fryer cooking chamber is heated with heating elements and a fan for blowing heated air through the cooking chamber. The upper portion of the apparatus utilizes the same upper heating elements as the air fryer chamber and includes a grilling surface, such as a grilling plate, in an enclosed interior cooking environment. The fan pulls air from the upper portion, filters smoke from the air, and returns the air to the lower portion of the apparatus. The heated, smokeless, circulated air from the fan is used to air fry in the lower portion.

Abstract: The present technology provides a device, such as a food processor with interchangeable components to allow the device to serve as a juicer, pasta maker, slicer, grinder, and frozen dessert maker. The device driver receives components that attach to the outlet of the device driver via a screwed connection or other suitable connection. The device drives a central shaft connected to interchangeable components that mix pasta ingredients, drive an extrusion auger, drive a rotating slicer, or perform any other suitable functions. The components may extrude pasta, juiced pulp, frozen desserts, or ground meat. The components may receive food products and auger the food products via a tube or cylinder via a helical screwed surface of the auger. Other components drive a food slicer or a meat grinder. By changing the components connected to the drive motor of the device, five different food processing functions may be utilized.
