Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of kitchen appliances, and in particular relates to a cooking utensil. Background Art

[0002] Cooking utensils (such as rice cookers, electric pressure cookers, etc.) generally include a pot body and a pot cover. Among them, the pot cover of some cooking utensils is directly hinged to the pot body so that the pot cover can be flipped open or covered with the pot body. The pot cover and the pot body of some cooking utensils are separated from each other and are hinged to the pot body through a fixed arm on one side of the pot cover, and the fixed arm is fixed to the pot cover, thereby realizing indirect hinge connection between the pot cover and the pot body, and the pot cover is driven by the fixed arm to flip open or cover the pot body.

[0003] However, the fixed arm is usually tightly fitted to the outer surface of the pot cover, and the pot cover and the fixed arm are non-detachable and have no relative movement, so as to improve the stability of the pot cover fixation and prevent the pot cover from shaking. However, for pressure cooking utensils and certain cooking utensils with pot cover locking function, the pot cover needs to be rotated relative to the fixed arm to complete the switching of the unlocking and locking positions with the pot body, which makes it impossible for cooking utensils with this type of structural shape to achieve this function, and the pot cover cannot be removed from the fixed arm for cleaning, which makes it difficult for users to clean the pot cover.

[0004] In addition, some cooking utensils have also transformed the fixed arm into a cantilever arm, which is separated from the pot cover, and the two are simply fixed by cooperation to realize the detachable design of the pot cover. However, in order to meet the movement of the pot cover, such cooking utensils usually have a large movement gap between the cantilever arm and the pot cover to avoid movement interference, and in order to realize the quick removal of the pot cover, the two are simply fixed by plugging, which makes the stability of the pot cover after being fixed on the cantilever arm low, and the pot cover is prone to shaking or even falling off the cantilever arm.

[0047] like Figures 1 to 8 As shown, a cooking utensil comprises a pot body 1 and a pot cover 2 hinged to the pot body 1, the pot cover 2 comprises a cover body 21 and a fixed arm 22, the fixed arm 22 comprises a connecting portion 221 located on one side of the cover body 21 and a fixed portion 222 extending to the top of the cover body 21, the connecting portion 221 is hinged to the pot body 1, the fixed portion 222 is detachably connected to the cover body 21, the fixed portion 222 is provided with an operating panel 5, at least a partial area of ​​the fixed portion 222 is attached to the top surface of the cover body 21, a gap 225 is provided between the connecting portion 221 and the cover body 21, and the cover body 21 can rotate relative to the fixed arm 22.

[0048] In the utility model, the pot cover 2 includes a cover body 21 and a fixed arm 22. The cover body 21 is indirectly hinged to the pot body 1 through the fixed arm 22. The fixed arm 22 includes a connecting portion 221 located on one side of the cover body 21 and a fixed portion 222 located above the cover body 21. The fixed arm 22 is detachably connected to the cover body 21 through the fixed portion 222. On the one hand, it is fixed to the top of the cover body 21 so that the center area of ​​the cover body 21 is subjected to force. Compared with the side fixing and unilateral force method, the force on the edge areas on both sides is more uniform, thereby reducing the tilting of the cover body 21 during the flipping process. On the other hand, the detachable connection method allows the cover body 21 to be removed from the fixed arm 22, so that it is convenient for users to clean it separately.

[0049] The fixed part 222 is provided with an operation panel 5, and the operation panel 5 can be electrically connected to the control unit on the pot body 1 through the wiring at the hinge between the fixed arm 22 and the pot body 1, so that the operation panel 5 can be set on the top of the cooking utensil and face upward, which is convenient for the user to operate by looking down without bending over. At the same time, compared with the method of setting it on the cover body 21, the operation panel 5 is located on the fixed arm 22, which can avoid direct contact with the cooking environment in the cooking cavity, thereby reducing the water vapor, oil smoke, food residues, etc. in the cooking cavity from reaching the operation panel 5, ensuring the cleanliness of the operation panel 5. In addition, it can also reduce the heat transferred to the operation panel 5, reduce the temperature rise of the operation panel 5, and increase the service life. After the user removes the cover body 21 from the fixed arm 22, the cover body 21 is cleaned separately. The electrical components such as the operation panel 5 are located on the fixed arm 22. Since there are no electrical components on the cover body 21, it can be directly cleaned thoroughly by flushing, and at the same time, it can avoid water splashing onto the operation panel 5 and affecting the service life.

[0050] In addition, at least part of the fixed portion 222 is in contact with the top surface of the cover 21, and there is a gap 225 between the connecting portion 221 and the cover 21. The cover 21 is fixed to the fixed portion 222 and in contact with the fixed portion 222 here, thereby increasing the contact area between the two and improving the support effect between the two, which can reduce the shaking of the cover 21 relative to the fixed arm 22 and improve the stability of the cover 21 during the flipping process. The existence of the side gap 225 of the cover 21 makes the cover 21 rotate more smoothly relative to the fixed arm 22, reduces motion interference and friction resistance, and can apply this structural shape to more models, improving structural adaptability and portability.

[0051] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, Figure 3 , Figure 4 As shown, the fixing portion 222 is provided with a mounting groove 226 recessed toward the cover body 21, the operating panel 5 is arranged in the mounting groove 226, the bottom wall of the mounting groove 226 is in contact with the top surface of the cover body 21, and the fixing portion 222 is also provided with a button frame 51, and the button frame 51 covers the mounting groove 226.

[0052] The installation of the installation groove 226 leaves a larger installation space for the operation panel 5 in the fixing portion 222, which not only facilitates the installation of the operation panel 5 and reduces the installation difficulty, but also increases the heat dissipation area of ​​the operation panel 5, improves the heat dissipation effect of the operation panel 5, and avoids excessive temperature rise at the operation panel 5. The bottom wall of the installation groove 226 fits with the top surface of the cover body 21, so that the cover body 21 can support the installation groove 226 upward, and then when the user presses to operate the operation panel 5, obvious force feedback can be obtained, while preventing the fixing portion 222 from shaking up and down. The button frame 51 covers the installation groove 226 to close the opening at the top of the installation groove 226. The button frame 51 constitutes a partial area of ​​the upper surface of the fixing part 222 and is basically flush with the upper surface of the fixing part 222, thereby making the appearance of the fixing part 222 more integrated and the appearance of the cooking utensil more flat and rounded, improving the operating feel while reducing the visual abruptness of the fixed arm 22 and improving the appearance.

[0053] Specifically, Figure 3 , Figure 5 As shown, there is an arc transition portion 223 between the connecting portion 221 and the fixing portion 222. The fixing arm 22 is hinged to the pot body 1 from one side of the cover body 21. Since the cover body 21 has a certain thickness, the fixing arm 22 extends upward along an arc path toward the center of the cover body 21, and fits with the top surface of the cover body 21 at the installation sink 226. In this way, the adaptability of the fixing arm 22 to the shape of the cover body 21 is improved, so that the shape and extension direction of the fixing arm 22 are more in line with the overall shape of the cover body 21, and the appearance integrity and uniformity of the cooking utensil are improved.

[0054] Since the fixed arm 22 is an overall arc-shaped structure, preferably, a film 6 is also attached to the top surface of the fixed arm 22, and the film 6 is attached to the surface of the fixed portion 222 and the button frame 51 to avoid the problem of warping caused by excessive local stress due to excessive curvature in some areas of the fixed arm 22.

[0055] Preferably, if Figure 4 As shown, a heat dissipation gap 52 is provided between the operating plate 5 and the bottom wall of the mounting recess 226 .

[0056] Since the bottom wall of the mounting groove 226 is in contact with the top surface of the cover body 21, part of the heat on the cover body 21 will be transferred to the mounting groove 226 through contact, and the heat dissipation gap 52 between the operating panel 5 and the bottom wall of the mounting groove 226 can prevent the heat at the bottom wall of the mounting groove 226 from being directly transferred to the operating panel 5, so that the heat can be dissipated through the heat dissipation gap 52, thereby reducing the temperature rise of the operating panel 5 and increasing the service life of the operating panel 5.

[0057] It is understandable that if Figure 3 , Figure 4 As shown, since the fixed arm 22 is an inclined extending structure, and the operating panel 5 is horizontally installed in the mounting groove 226 in order to improve the visual effect and the convenience of operation, the heat dissipation gap 52 between the two ends of the operating panel 5 and the bottom wall of the mounting groove 226 is different. Specifically, the heat dissipation gap 52 gradually decreases from the end away from the center of the cover body 21 to the end close to the center of the cover body 21.

[0058] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, Figure 3 , Figure 5 As shown, the fixing portion 222 is provided with a fixing shaft 224 protruding downward, the top wall of the cover body 21 is provided with an opening corresponding to the fixing shaft 224, and the cooking utensil further includes a fastener 4, and the fixing shaft 224 passes through the opening to be fastened with the fastener 4.

[0059] The fixing arm 22 and the cover body 21 are fastened together by the fastener 4 and the fixing shaft 224 on the fixing arm 22. Compared with a simple plug-in fixation method, the connection stability between the cover body 21 and the fixing arm 22 is improved. At the same time, the difficulty of the user to remove the cover body 21 is correspondingly increased. If the cover body 21 is to be removed, the user needs to twist the fastener 4 to loosen it from the fixing shaft 224, thereby avoiding the situation where the user accidentally removes the cover body 21 during use.

[0060] It can be understood that the fastener 4 is located on the lower side of the cover body 21. When the cover body 21 covers the pot body 1, the fastener 4 is located in the cooking cavity and the user cannot operate it. Only when the cover body 21 and the fixed arm 22 are flipped and opened together, the fastener 4 will be exposed to the outside. At this time, the cover body 21 is located on one side of the pot body 1. Therefore, when the cover body 21 is removed, the cover body 21 is in an open state. The temperature of the cover body 21 is lower, and the user operation is more comfortable. In addition, the impact of the steam in the pot on the user's hands can be reduced during operation, thereby improving the user experience.

[0061] Preferably, if Figure 2 , Figure 5 As shown, the fastener 4 is a locking nut, which ensures the stability of its connection with the fixed shaft 224 while facilitating the user to perform assembly and disassembly operations.

[0062] In a preferred embodiment, the fixing portion 222 is provided with a temperature measuring component, and the temperature measuring component has a temperature measuring probe. The temperature measuring component constitutes the fixing shaft 224 so that the temperature measuring probe passes through the cover body 21 and extends into the cooking cavity.

[0063] During the cooking process, the temperature measuring probe needs to be inserted into the cooking cavity to monitor the temperature in the pot. In this embodiment, the temperature measuring element is used as the fixed shaft 224, so that the temperature measuring element can realize the integration of temperature measuring and fixing functions, simplify the overall structure of the pot cover 2, and save costs. At the same time, the temperature measuring element is set on the fixed arm 22 and only passes through the cover 21. After the user removes the cover 21, the temperature measuring element is separated from the cover 21. Therefore, when the user cleans the cover 21, water will not reach the temperature measuring element, which can avoid the temperature measuring element from being short-circuited or damaged by water. In addition, since the temperature measuring element needs to be electrically connected to the control unit on the pot body 1, and the cover 21 can be removed from the pot body 1, it is difficult to make a circuit connection. The temperature measuring element is set on the fixed arm 22, and the fixed arm 22 is always hinged to the pot body 1. Therefore, the wiring can be routed from the hinge to realize the circuit connection between the temperature measuring element and the control unit of the pot body 1.

[0064] It should be noted that the present embodiment does not limit the location of the fixed shaft 224. In a preferred embodiment, Figure 5 As shown, the fixing portion 222 extends to the central area of ​​the cover 21, the fixing shaft 224 is arranged corresponding to the center of the cover 21, and the opening is opened in the central area of ​​the top wall of the cover 21. The fixing shaft 224 is located in the central area of ​​the cover 21, so that the cover 21 is fixed to the fixing arm 22 at the center. When the cover 21 is turned over, the center of the cover 21 is stressed, so that the stress on both sides is more uniform, so that the sealing rings on both sides of the cover 21 are in uniform contact with the edge of the pot body 1, ensuring uniform sealing on both sides. At the same time, the fixing shaft 224 is located at the rotation center of the cover 21, so that no matter how the cover 21 rotates, the position of the fixing shaft 224 does not change, ensuring the reliability of connection and sealing. Of course, the fixing shaft 224 can also deviate from the center of the cover 21, which is not limited here.

[0065] Preferably, if Figure 6 , Figure 7As shown, the fixing portion 222 is provided with an installation cavity 2261 for installing the operating panel 5, and the cavity wall of the installation cavity 2261 is provided with a wire passing opening 2262, and the wire passing opening 2262 has a vertical extension section located on the side wall of the installation cavity 2261, and a horizontal extension section located on the bottom wall of the installation cavity 2261.

[0066] Part of the wire opening 2262 extends vertically, and part of the wire opening extends horizontally, so that the wire can enter the installation cavity 2261 from any area, and no matter where the wiring part of the operation panel 5 is located, the wire is bent less, thereby avoiding the wire from being damaged by bending.
