Cooking appliance for cooking food under pressure with improved control device

Abstract

The invention provides an appliance for cooking food under pressure comprising at least: a container and a lid (3); at least one locking member (10) mounted on said lid (3) in a locked position and an unlocked position a control device (15) for controlling the movement of the at least one locking member (10), the control device comprising an operating member (16) adapted to be actuated by the user so that the at least one The locking member (10) moves, said operating member (16) is mounted so as to be movable; said appliance is characterized in that said at least one locking member (10) is mounted on the lid (3) in such a way as to be positioned an elastic return means (17) is driven towards its locked position; and an operating member (16) is mounted drivingly connected to said at least one locking member (10) such that a user's force on said operating member (16) causes Said locking member (10) moves towards its unlocked position. A device used to cook food under pressure.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the general technical field of cooking appliances for cooking food under pressure, in particular such appliances for domestic use having at least one container and a cooking enclosure designed to be mounted on said container to form a sealed cooking casing. Cover, the appliance is designed to be able to cook food contained in the container under steam pressure. Background technique [0002] Therefore, the present invention relates more particularly to an appliance for cooking food under pressure, said appliance comprising at least: [0003] a container and a lid designed to fit over said container to define a sealed cooking enclosure; [0004] at least one locking member mounted to move on the lid between a locked position in which the lid is locked to the container and an unlocked position in which the lid can be removed from the remove from the container; [0005] a control device for controlling movement of the at...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

[0009] The presence of two operating members naturally complicates the transmission of the control device and ultimately the ergonomics, since it may be memory-consuming for the user who is forced to combine controls and mobile drives with various degrees of complexity is tedious and can even lead to operational errors

[0010] Known control devices may require the user to exert considerable force in order to move the jaws or to unlock the jaws, constituting another disadvantage of the currently known devices
