Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of cooking utensils, in particular to a pressure valve and a cooking utensil which are easy to clean. Background Art

[0002] When the cooking appliance is used for pressure cooking, it needs to be equipped with a pressure valve. The pressure valve usually includes components such as a valve seat, a ball cover and a gravity ball. The pressure valve is provided with an exhaust channel. The gravity ball opens and closes the exhaust channel by movement to adjust the pressure inside the cooking appliance.

[0003] In the existing technical solutions, the user cannot disassemble the various components of the pressure valve after they are assembled. During the exhaust process of the pressure valve, rice grains or soup in the cooking utensil may enter the interior of the pressure valve along with the gas. Since the pressure valve cannot be disassembled and cleaned, the rice grains or soup that have entered the pressure valve are retained, making the interior of the pressure valve prone to mold, odor and other adverse conditions.

[0004] In order to solve the above technical problems, the users can completely disassemble the various components of some pressure valves after they are assembled, that is, the valve seat, ball cover, gravity ball and other components can be completely separated. However, since the gravity ball is a spherical object, it will lose the limit of the ball cover after disassembly and roll around, which is easy to be lost, causing the pressure valve to be unusable. At the same time, in order to ensure the sealing of the gravity ball during use, the assembly precision of the gravity ball, the ball cover, valve seat and other components is relatively high. This is not only inconvenient for users to disassemble and assemble, but also the accuracy of the pressure valve is easily reduced during repeated disassembly and assembly, which affects the pressure cooking of the cooking appliance and has great limitations.

[0036] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as those commonly understood by those skilled in the art of the present invention. The terms used herein in the specification of the present invention are only for the purpose of describing specific embodiments and are not intended to limit the present invention.

[0037] See also Figure 1-Figure 4 The utility model discloses a pressure valve that is easy to clean, comprising: a valve seat 10; a ball cover 20, the ball cover 20 is detachably connected to the valve seat 10, one end of the ball cover 20 has a mounting port 30, the interior of the ball cover 20 is provided with a mounting cavity 40, the mounting port 30 and the mounting cavity 40 are communicated with each other; a gravity ball 50, the gravity ball 50 is installed in the mounting cavity 40 through the mounting port 30; an anti-slip component 60, the anti-slip component 60 is arranged at the position of the mounting port 30, and the anti-slip component 60 is used to limit the gravity ball 50 from escaping from the mounting cavity 40.

[0038] Therefore, the utility model restricts the gravity ball 50 within the installation cavity 40 of the ball cover 20 by setting an anti-dropping part 60, so as to avoid the loss of the gravity ball 50, and the ball cover 20 and the valve seat 10 are detachably connected; in this way, the user can clean the ball cover 20 and the gravity ball 50 as a whole, and can also clean the valve seat 10 separately, reducing the occurrence of undesirable conditions such as mold and odor.

[0039] Specifically, the gravity ball 50 is a ferromagnetic sphere, and the specific material of the gravity ball 50 depends on the actual application scenario and is not limited thereto.

[0040] In an embodiment of the utility model, an exhaust inlet 70 is provided on the valve seat 10, and at least one exhaust outlet 80 is provided on the ball cover 20. The exhaust inlet 70, the installation cavity 40 and the exhaust outlet 80 are interconnected to form an exhaust channel, and the gravity ball 50 opens and closes the exhaust channel by movement.

[0041] In an embodiment of the utility model, the gravity ball 50 is supported on the valve seat 10; a avoidance hole 90 is provided at the central portion of the anti-slip component 60, and when the gravity ball 50 opens and closes the exhaust channel through movement, there is an installation gap between the gravity ball 50 and the anti-slip component 60.

[0042] It is understandable that during the operation of the gravity ball 50 , due to the provision of the avoidance hole 90 and the installation gap, the provision of the anti-slip component 60 will not interfere with the opening and closing of the exhaust passage by the gravity ball 50 .

[0043] Preferably, multiple exhaust outlets 80 are arranged along the circumference of the ball cover 20, which is conducive to exhaust; at the same time, when cleaning the ball cover 20, the cleaning liquid can enter the interior of the ball cover 20 through the exhaust outlet 80 for cleaning, and the cleaning liquid can also enter the interior of the ball cover 20 through the avoidance hole 90 for cleaning, thereby performing multi-directional cleaning on the ball cover 20 and the gravity ball 50.

[0044] In the embodiment of the present invention, the inner diameter of the installation cavity 40 is greater than the outer diameter of the gravity ball 50 .

[0045] It can be understood that the inner diameter of the installation port 30 without the anti-slip component 60 installed is larger than the outer diameter of the gravity ball 50, and the inner diameter of the installation port 30 with the anti-slip component 60 installed is smaller than the outer diameter of the gravity ball 50, which is conducive to assembling the gravity ball 50 on the ball cover 20 and preventing the assembled gravity ball 50 from detaching from the ball cover 20.

[0046] In the embodiment of the utility model, the anti-dropping member 60 and the ball cover 20 are integrally formed, or the anti-dropping member 60 and the ball cover 20 are separately formed.

[0047] Specifically, in the case where the anti-slip component 60 and the ball cover 20 are integrally formed, when the anti-slip component 60 and the ball cover 20 are made of different materials, the anti-slip component 60 can be cast or injection molded as an insert; when the anti-slip component 60 and the ball cover 20 are made of the same material, the anti-slip component 60 and the ball cover 20 can be directly made into an integral structure by a casting molding process or an injection molding process.

[0048] Specifically, in the case where the anti-slip component 60 and the ball cover 20 are made separately, the anti-slip component 60 and the ball cover 20 are fixedly connected together by welding, gluing, etc., or the anti-slip component 60 and the ball cover 20 are connected together by a snap connection, a threaded connection, or a screw-nut connection; in order to avoid the gravity ball 50 from being lost, the gravity ball 50, the anti-slip component 60, and the ball cover 20 cannot be disassembled by the user after being assembled, that is, the user can clean the gravity ball 50, the anti-slip component 60, and the ball cover 20 without disassembling the gravity ball 50. Of course, when the anti-slip component 60 and the ball cover 20 are connected together by a snap connection, a threaded connection, or a screw-nut connection, in some special application scenarios, the user can also disassemble the gravity ball 50, the anti-slip component 60, and the ball cover 20.

[0049] In the embodiment of the present utility model, the anti-dropping member 60 is an elastic structure or a rigid structure.

[0050] Specifically, the anti-slipping piece 60 with an elastic structure may be made of rubber material, silicone material or polymer material, and the anti-slipping piece 60 with a rigid structure may be made of metal material.

[0051] In an embodiment of the utility model, when the anti-slip component 60 is an elastic structure, the anti-slip component 60 can undergo elastic deformation, and the gravity ball 50 can be installed in the installation cavity 40 of the ball cover 20 after squeezing the anti-slip component 60 at the installation port 30; when the anti-slip component 60 is a rigid structure, the anti-slip component 60 cannot undergo elastic deformation, and the gravity ball 50 must be installed first and then the anti-slip component 60.

[0052] In this way, when assembling the ball cover 20, the utility model can select the assembly order of the gravity ball 50 and the anti-detachment member 60 according to whether the anti-detachment member 60 is an elastic structure or a rigid structure. The assembly method is flexible and can be applied to different assembly scenarios.

[0053] In the embodiment of the present invention, the anti-dropping member 60 is a protruding structure, and the anti-dropping member 60 protrudes toward the inner side of the ball cover 20 .

[0054] It is understandable that the specific shape of the anti-slip component 60 can be columnar, strip-shaped, rib-shaped, snap ring-shaped or irregularly shaped. The specific shape of the anti-slip component 60 is based on preventing the gravity ball 50 from escaping from the installation cavity 40 of the ball cover 20 and is selected according to the actual application scenario.

[0055] Preferably, the anti-slip component 60 includes an annular body 601 and a sheet body 602 , wherein a plurality of sheets 602 are arranged circumferentially along the annular body 601 , one end of the sheet body 602 is connected to the annular body 601 , and the other end of the sheet body 602 is suspended and extends obliquely toward the center of the installation cavity 40 .

[0056] Furthermore, the sheet body 602 is rectangular, square, trapezoidal, fan-shaped or irregularly shaped. The specific shape of the sheet body 602 is based on preventing the gravity ball 50 from escaping from the installation cavity 40 of the ball cover 20 and is selected according to the actual application scenario.

[0057] It is assumed that the valve seat 10 is located below the ball cover 20, the mounting port 30 is provided at the lower end of the ball cover 20, and the other end of the sheet body 602 is inclined upward, or the other end of the sheet body 602 is inclined upward.

[0058] Preferably, the other end of the sheet body 602 is tilted upward, and when the gravity ball 50 is installed, the anti-slip component 60 can be passed by rotating the gravity ball 50, which not only saves effort but also avoids the connection position between the sheet body 602 and the annular body 601 from being broken due to positive bending, thereby extending the service life of the sheet body 602.

[0059] In the embodiment of the utility model, the valve seat 10 and the ball cover 20 are detachably connected by threaded connection or clamping, which is convenient for users to disassemble and assemble the valve seat 10 and the ball cover 20 .

[0060] See also Figure 1-Figure 6The utility model also discloses a cooking utensil, including the above-mentioned easy-to-clean pressure valve, and also includes a pot body 100, an upper cover 110 and a cover assembly 120, and the easy-to-clean pressure valve is arranged on the cover assembly 120.

[0061] The technical means disclosed in the solution of the utility model are not limited to the technical means disclosed in the above-mentioned implementation mode, but also include technical solutions composed of any combination of the above technical features. It should be pointed out that for ordinary technicians in this technical field, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the principle of the utility model, and these improvements and modifications are also regarded as the protection scope of the utility model.
