Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of cooking technology, and in particular to a tray assembly and a cooking utensil. Background Technology

[0002] Existing cooking appliances typically only fulfill a single cooking function, exhibiting significant homogeneity. Furthermore, the preparation of some dishes requires transferring food between different appliances, which is cumbersome. To address this, a miniaturized, multi-functional all-in-one cooking appliance, such as a combination oven, is proposed that can be placed directly on the countertop for cooking and integrates different heating methods to meet diverse culinary needs. To facilitate easy placement and movement of this combination cooking appliance on the countertop, its overall size is generally designed to be small. Therefore, for combination cooking appliances with baking functions, the baking space is smaller compared to a conventional oven.

[0003] In traditional home or commercial ovens (or steam ovens), the tray is typically inserted and removed from the oven body via a sliding rail system. While this design facilitates pushing and pulling the tray into and out of the heating chamber, it still presents some significant operational inconveniences and safety hazards in actual use: when removing the tray, users must wear oven mitts to avoid direct contact with the hot surface. However, oven mitts can impair hand dexterity, making it difficult to precisely control the tray's position. For smaller, multi-functional cooking appliances, the difficulty of removing the baking tray while wearing oven mitts is even greater, especially in smaller baking spaces. Using specially designed oven tongs to remove the tray is also an option. However, the temperature inside the heating chamber remains extremely high, and when the oven door is opened to remove the tray, a large amount of hot air quickly escapes into the surrounding environment, potentially causing injury to the user.

[0060] This utility model proposes a tray assembly 100, which aims to provide a tray assembly that can facilitate the removal of the tray while avoiding damage to the user from the high-temperature gas in the heating chamber.

[0061] Please see Figures 1 to 4 In one embodiment of the present invention, the tray assembly 100 is used for a cooking utensil 200. The tray assembly 100 includes a tray 1 and a handle assembly 3. The tray 1 is provided with a first connector 2 at one end in a first horizontal direction. The tray 1 is used to carry food. The handle assembly 3 includes a heat insulation baffle 31 and a grip portion 32. The heat insulation baffle 31 has a first side and a second side that are arranged opposite to each other in the first horizontal direction. The first side of the heat insulation baffle 31 is provided with a second connector 4 that is detachably connected to the first connector 2. The grip portion 32 is provided on the second side of the heat insulation baffle 31.

[0062] It should be noted that the cooking appliance 200 is a combination cooking appliance integrating different heating methods, providing users with multiple cooking options. The cooking appliance 200 is a small household appliance placed on a countertop, and its usage scenario is similar to that of general small appliances such as electric ovens and microwave ovens. The specific structure of the cooking appliance 200 is detailed below. Therefore, to facilitate flexible arrangement and movement, the overall size of the cooking appliance is not excessively large. Compared to a conventional oven, its baking space is smaller, and ensuring even heat distribution is more difficult.

[0063] It is understood that the tray 1 is used to place and hold food to be cooked or heated.

[0064] The first connector 2 is disposed on one side of the tray 1 and is used to connect with the handle assembly 3.

[0065] The handle assembly 3 mainly consists of the heat insulation baffle 31 and the grip part 32. The heat insulation baffle 31 is used for heat insulation protection to prevent users from burning their hands when taking out the hot baking tray.

[0066] It is understood that the heat insulation baffle 31 has a first side and a second side disposed opposite to each other in the first horizontal direction. The first side is the side closer to the tray 1, and is provided with the second connector 4 for detachably connecting to the first connector 2 on the tray 1. The second side is the side away from the tray 1, facing the user, and the grip part 32 is disposed on this side for easy gripping by the user.

[0067] The grip portion 32 is located on the second side of the heat insulation baffle 31, and is used by the user to grip and operate the tray 1. It should be noted that the grip portion 32 can be a handle, a pull ring, or other forms that are easy to grasp. Of course, other possible forms can also be used, and the specific form can be determined according to the actual situation. This specification does not limit this embodiment.

[0068] The first connector 2 and the second connector 4 are detachably connected, so that the handle assembly 3 can be installed or removed as needed. When the handle is not needed, it can be removed to facilitate placing the tray 1 in the heating chamber b, thus saving storage space when needed.

[0069] It should be noted that, taking the shape of the tray 1 as a cuboid as an example, the first horizontal direction can be understood as the depth direction of the tray 1, or it can be understood as the width direction of the tray 1.

[0070] In the following description, the first horizontal direction is set as the depth direction of the tray 1 as an example, while the second horizontal direction mentioned later is the width direction of the tray 1.

[0071] In the technical solution of this utility model, a first connector 2 is provided on one side of the tray 1 in the first horizontal direction, and a second connector 4 is provided on the heat insulation plate on the side of the handle assembly 3 facing the tray 1. The second connector 4 is detachably connected to the first connector 2 to realize quick assembly and disassembly between the handle assembly 3 and the tray 1. When it is necessary to remove the tray 1, the second connector 4 of the handle assembly 3 is connected to the first connector 2, and the user holds the grip part 32 and removes the tray 1 through the handle assembly 3. The heat insulation baffle 31 is located between the grip part 32 and the tray 1, which can block the hot air overflowing from the oven opening and prevent the hot air from scalding the user.

[0072] The heat insulation baffle 31 can be made of a material with low thermal conductivity, or it can have a heat insulation part with low thermal conductivity embedded inside, or a heat insulation structure can be provided on the heat insulation baffle 31.

[0073] Specifically, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 In this embodiment, a heat dissipation channel a is formed inside the heat insulation baffle 31, and the two ends of the heat dissipation channel a are formed on the peripheral end of the heat insulation baffle 31.

[0074] One or more heat dissipation channels a are provided inside the heat insulation baffle 31 for air circulation or heat dissipation, which can help to quickly dissipate the heat absorbed by the heat insulation baffle 31, thereby preventing the temperature from becoming too high due to heat accumulation.

[0075] The two ports of the heat dissipation channel a are used for the entry and exit of air or heat. The two ports of the heat dissipation channel a are formed on the peripheral end of the heat insulation baffle 31, rather than directly facing the user's grip part 32, so that the air will not blow directly onto the user's hand or other parts, thus improving the safety of use.

[0076] Specifically, in this embodiment, the heat dissipation channel a extends in the vertical direction, and correspondingly, the two ends of the heat dissipation channel a are formed at the upper and lower ends of the heat insulation baffle 31; and / or, the heat dissipation channel a is provided in correspondence with the gripping part 32.

[0077] It is understandable that heat usually rises, so by setting the heat dissipation channel a in the vertical direction, this characteristic can be utilized to promote the rise and exhaust of hot air, while cold air enters from below, forming an effective natural convection circulation.

[0078] "The heat dissipation channel a is set in a corresponding manner to the grip 32", that is, the heat dissipation channel a is set near or directly opposite the grip 32.

[0079] It is understandable that the grip part 32 is the part that the user directly contacts, and placing the heat dissipation channel a here can preferentially reduce the temperature of this area, ensuring that the user's hands will not feel overheated during operation.

[0080] The safety of the tray assembly 100 is improved by extending the heat dissipation channel a in the vertical direction and placing its ports on the upper and lower sides of the heat insulation baffle 31 and corresponding to the grip part 32.

[0081] There are many ways to achieve a detachable connection between the first connector 2 and the second connector 4. For example, it can be a magnetic connection or a snap-fit ​​connection. Of course, other possible forms can also be used. The specific form can be determined according to the actual situation. This specification does not limit this aspect.

[0082] Specifically, please refer to Figure 3 and Figure 7 In this embodiment, the first connector 2 includes a first main body 21, a first support 22, and a positioning part 23. The first main body 21 is fixedly connected to the tray 1. The first support 22 is located on the side of the first main body 21 facing the handle assembly 3. The positioning part 23 is located on the side of the first main body 21 facing the handle assembly 3, and the positioning part 23 extends in the vertical direction. The positioning part 23 and the first support 22 are spaced apart in the first horizontal direction, and the positioning part 23 is closer to the handle assembly 3 than the first support 22. The second connector 4 includes a second main body 41, a receiving part 42, and a mating part 43. The second main body 41 is fixedly connected to the heat insulation baffle 31. The receiving part 42 is located on the side of the second main body 41 facing the tray 1. The mating part 43 is located on the side of the second main body 41 facing the tray 1, and the mating part 43 mates with the positioning part 23.

[0083] The first main body 21 is the main part that is fixedly connected to the first connecting member 2 and the tray 1, providing a stable foundation. It is located on one side of the tray 1. It should be noted that the first main body 21 can be fixed to the tray 1 by welding, bolts, or other means. Of course, other possible forms can also be used, and the specific form can be determined according to the actual situation. This specification does not limit this embodiment. Preferably, the first connecting member 2 is screwed to the tray 1.

[0084] The positioning part 23 is used to accurately position and guide the second connector 4 to ensure that the first connector 2 and the second connector 4 can be accurately mated. The positioning part 23 is located on the side of the first main body 21 facing the handle assembly 3 and extends in the vertical direction, being closer to the handle assembly 3 than the first support part 22.

[0085] The second main body 41 is fixedly connected to the heat insulation baffle 31. It should be noted that the second main body 41 is fixed to the heat insulation baffle 31 by welding, bolts, or other methods. Of course, other possible forms can also be used, and the specific form can be determined according to the actual situation. This specification does not limit this embodiment. Preferably, the second connecting member 4 is screwed to the handle assembly 3.

[0086] The receiving part 42 is used to receive pressure from the tray 1, ensuring that the handle assembly 3 can firmly support the tray 1.

[0087] The mating part 43 mates with the positioning part 23 of the first connector 2 to ensure that the two can be accurately docked and maintain a stable connection.

[0088] When it is necessary to connect the first connector 2 to the second connector 4:

[0089] First, bring the second connector 4 on the handle assembly 3 close to the first connector 2 on the tray 1, so that the mating part 43 of the second connector 4 is aligned with the positioning part 23 of the first connector 2.

[0090] Then, following the guide of the positioning part 23, the mating part 43 is inserted into place until the two are fully engaged. At this point, the engagement of the positioning part 23 and the mating part 43 ensures the accuracy of the connection.

[0091] When the mating part 43 is fully embedded in the positioning part 23, the receiving part 42 will contact and support the first support part 22, forming a stable mechanical connection, so that the tray 1 can be supported on the handle assembly 3.

[0092] When it is necessary to disassemble the first connector 2 from the second connector 4:

[0093] First, lift the handle assembly 3 and apply appropriate force to disengage the receiving part 42 from the support of the first support part 22, thereby reducing the contact pressure between the two.

[0094] Then, continue applying force to disengage the mating portion 43 of the second connector 4 from the positioning portion 23 of the first connector 2.

[0095] Once the mating part 43 is completely disengaged from the positioning part 23, the handle assembly 3 can be easily removed, completing the disassembly.

[0096] The precise fit between the positioning part 23 and the mating part 43, along with the supporting effect of the first supporting part 22 and the receiving part 42, ensures the stability and reliability of the connection.

[0097] Further, please refer to Figure 3In this embodiment, at least two first support portions 22 are provided, and a first extension portion 24 extends from the first main body portion 21 between the two first support portions 22. The first extension portion 24 protrudes from the first support portion 22 in the first horizontal direction, and the positioning portion 23 is provided on the upper side of the first extension portion 24. At least two receiving portions 42 are provided, and a second extension portion 44 extends from the second main body portion 41 between the receiving portions 42. The receiving portion 42 protrudes from the second extension portion 44 in the first horizontal direction, and the mating portion 43 is provided on the second extension portion 44.

[0098] Both the first support portion 22 and the receiving portion 42 are provided in at least two configurations. Each first support portion 22 is used to support the pressure from the handle assembly 3. The receiving portion 42 corresponds to the first support portion 22 of the first connector 2, ensuring multi-point support and improving stability.

[0099] The first extension 24 protrudes further outward than the first support 22 in the first horizontal direction (i.e., along the depth of the tray 1), and the receiving part 42 protrudes further outward than the second extension 44. The positioning part 23 is provided on the upper side of the first extension 24, and the mating part 43 is provided on the second extension 44, so that the positioning part 23 can better guide the mating part 43 of the second connector 4 to achieve a precise connection.

[0100] Thus, the design of the plurality of first support portions 22 and the receiving portion 42 provides multi-point support, significantly enhancing the stability and reliability of the connection. The precise engagement of the positioning portion 23 on the first extension portion 24 and the mating portion 43 on the second extension portion 44 ensures a quick and accurate connection between the tray 1 and the handle assembly 3.

[0101] For further information, please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 3 In this embodiment, at least two positioning parts 23 are provided, and the two positioning parts 23 are spaced apart in the second horizontal direction. The first connector 2 also includes a second support part 25 provided on the first extension part 24, and the second support part 25 is provided between the two positioning parts 23. At least two mating parts 43 are provided, and the two mating parts 43 are spaced apart in the second horizontal direction. The second support part 25 is received on the lower side of the second extension part 44.

[0102] Both the positioning part 23 and the mating part 43 are provided in at least two units to ensure multi-point precise positioning. The two positioning parts 23 and the two mating parts 43 are spaced apart in the second horizontal direction (i.e., the length direction of the tray 1) to ensure multi-point docking with the positioning part 23, so as to provide a more stable guiding effect and distribute the stress points.

[0103] The second support portion 25 is disposed between the first extension portion 24 and the two positioning portions 23 to provide additional support and prevent deformation or damage due to excessive force at a single point.

[0104] The second support portion 25 is received on the lower side of the second extension portion 44. Therefore, when the second connector 4 mates with the first connector 2, the second support portion 25 will contact the second extension portion 44 and bear the pressure from the tray 1.

[0105] Further, please refer to Figure 3 and Figure 7 In this embodiment, the receiving part 42 extends downward toward one side of the tray 1 and is provided with an abutting part 45, which abuts against the first main body part 21.

[0106] The abutting portion 45 extends downward from one side of the receiving portion 42 toward the tray 1. It contacts or abuts against the first main body portion 21 of the first connector 2 to provide additional support and stability, so that the weight of the tray 1 can be distributed to multiple contact points. The abutting portion can be provided with a large abutting surface, so that the force-bearing surface is increased and the support is more stable.

[0107] Furthermore, in order to ensure that the tray 1 is in a horizontal position when the tray assembly 100 is removed and placed on the countertop, thus preventing the food inside the tray 1 from tipping over, in this embodiment, the bottom of the heat insulation baffle 31 is not set beyond the bottom of the tray 1.

[0108] Thus, when the tray 1 is taken out and placed on the table, the entire bottom of the tray 1 contacts the table, while the bottom of the heat insulation baffle 31 is suspended in the air, or supported on the table in the same horizontal direction as the bottom of the tray 1, thereby preventing the bottom of the heat insulation baffle 31 from extending too far, causing one end of the tray 1 to be raised and forming an inclined angle.

[0109] Specifically, in this embodiment, the heat insulation baffle 31 is made of plastic, metal or glass.

[0110] Understandably, the most suitable material can be chosen based on the actual usage environment and needs of the oven. For example, lightweight plastic can be chosen when the tray 1 needs to be moved frequently; while metal or glass can be used in scenarios where durability and aesthetics are prioritized.

[0111] The heat insulation baffle 31 can be made of three different materials: plastic, metal or glass. Therefore, the material of the heat insulation baffle 31 can be reasonably selected according to the application scenario, safety requirements and maintenance and cleaning.

[0112] This utility model also proposes a cooking utensil 200, please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 8 and Figure 9 The cooking appliance 200 includes a main body 10 and a tray assembly 100. The main body 10 has a heating element, and at least the tray 1 can be placed on the heating element for heating. The specific structure of the tray assembly 100 is as described in the above embodiments. Since the cooking appliance 200 adopts all the technical solutions of all the above embodiments, it has at least all the beneficial effects brought about by the technical solutions of the above embodiments, which will not be described in detail here.

[0113] Specifically, in some embodiments, the main body 10 has a heating chamber b and an opening that communicates with and can be opened and closed, the heating chamber b forming the heating part.

[0114] By configuring the entire heating chamber b as the heating unit, the tray assembly 100 placed in the heating chamber b can be heated from all directions, thereby improving the uniformity of heating.

[0115] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 8 The main body 10 has a heating chamber b and an opening that communicates with the heating chamber b and can be opened and closed. The heating chamber b forms the heating part, and the heat insulation baffle 31 is adapted to the opening.

[0116] Thus, when the cooking appliance 200 is working normally, the heat insulation baffle 31 can close the opening and serve as the door of the heating chamber b. When it is necessary to pick up the tray assembly 100, it can also effectively achieve heat insulation, making the structure simpler and the use more convenient.

[0117] Furthermore, in some embodiments, a heating zone is formed at the upper end of the main body 10; a second heating device 20 is also provided inside the main body 10, the second heating device 20 is used to heat the pot on the heating zone, and the second heating device 20 is at least partially opposite to the heating chamber b.

[0118] The heating zone is formed at the upper end of the main body 10. The heating zone is located on top of the cooking appliance 200 and is used to place pots or other cooking utensils for heating, corresponding to the panel on the main body 1. The shape of the working area is not limited. The specific shape depends on the needs of the pot. If the pot is a flat-bottomed pan, the working area can be set as a flat plate to better accommodate the flat-bottomed pan. If the bottom of the pot is round, the working area can be set as a concave shape to better accommodate the round-bottomed pan.

[0119] The main body 10 is further provided with a second heating device 20 for heating the cookware placed on the heating zone. The second heating device 20 may take a different form than the heating device in the heating chamber b to provide an alternative heating method.

[0120] It should be noted that the second heating device 20 can use electromagnetic induction technology. When the metal pot is placed in the heating zone, the electromagnetic field will generate eddy currents at the bottom of the pot, thereby directly heating the pot. This is suitable for efficient and rapid heating and is suitable for cooking methods such as boiling, stir-frying, and pan-frying.

[0121] The second heating device 20 can also use a resistance heating element, through which the heat generated by the resistance heating element is transferred to the cookware, suitable for slow cooking, heat preservation and other operations.

[0122] The second heating device 20 can also be an infrared heater, which directly heats the surface of the cookware or food through radiation, and is suitable for rapid heating and maintaining the surface temperature of food.

[0123] Thus, by integrating two different heating methods into the same cooking appliance 200, users can choose the most suitable heating mode according to their specific cooking needs, which greatly improves cooking efficiency, flexibility and convenience. Users no longer need to purchase other types of kitchen appliances, thus meeting diverse cooking needs.

[0124] Specifically, in some embodiments, the second heating device 20 includes an electromagnetic heating device. Thus, the cooking appliance 200 integrates electromagnetic heating and baking functions, and the electromagnetic heating only affects metal cookware. The surface of the heating zone will not heat up when there is no cookware, reducing the risk of accidental burns to the upper part of the main body 10 and improving safety during use.

[0125] In some embodiments, the second heating device 20 is located on the upper side of the heating chamber b.

[0126] It is understood that the second heating device 20 is located above the heating chamber b, and will not directly affect the temperature distribution in the heating chamber b, thereby reducing the mutual interference between the two heating methods. Furthermore, the upper end of the main body 10 can be conveniently equipped with control keys, making it easy for users to operate the second heating device 20.

[0127] In one embodiment, the distance between the top surface of the heating chamber b and the upper end surface of the main body 10 is H1, where 20mm ≤ H1 ≤ 30mm. When the second heating device 20 is an electromagnetic heating device, the installation height occupied by the electromagnetic heating device on the main body 10 can be set to 20mm to 30mm.

[0128] In one embodiment, the height of the main body 10 is H, where 70mm ≤ H ≤ 150mm. Therefore, the installation height of the heating element within the main body 10 is designed to adapt to the thickness of the food inside the heating chamber b. For example, when the food is a pancake, the installation height of the heating element within the main body 10 can be 40mm to 50mm; when the food is a sweet potato, the installation height of the heating element within the main body 10 can be 120mm to 130mm.

[0129] This design reduces the overall size, making the product more compact and lightweight, and easier for users to use and store in various environments. The lower height not only optimizes space utilization but is also particularly suitable for environments with limited space, such as kitchen countertops.

[0130] Specifically, in this embodiment, the cooking appliance 200 includes an oven, a grill, or a stovetop.

[0131] It is understood that the oven is a kitchen appliance primarily used for baking and roasting food. It is suitable for baking and roasting a variety of foods, including bread, cakes, pizzas, and meats.

[0132] The grill is designed for simultaneous heating on both the top and bottom, making it suitable for quickly grilling food. It is suitable for grilling various foods such as steaks, hamburgers, sandwiches, and vegetables.

[0133] The aforementioned stove-oven is a composite kitchen appliance that integrates the functions of a stove and an oven. It is suitable for various cooking operations such as boiling, stir-frying, pan-frying, and grilling.

[0134] By integrating different types of heating methods into one device, users can choose the most suitable heating mode according to their specific cooking needs, saving time and space, while also improving the overall cooking experience and significantly reducing the number of devices required, thus saving space.

[0135] The above description is merely an exemplary embodiment of the present utility model and does not limit the patent scope of the present utility model. Any equivalent structural transformations made based on the technical concept of the present utility model and the contents of the present utility model specification and drawings, or direct / indirect applications in other related technical fields, are included within the patent protection scope of the present utility model.
