DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0050] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be described clearly and completely below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention.

[0051] like Figures 1 to 21 As shown, the sandwich maker with a locking device of the present invention comprises a cover plate 1 and a base 2. One end of the cover plate 1 is hinged on the base 2. A heating chamber is formed between the cover plate 1 and the base 2. Both the base 2 and the cover plate 1 can be heated to heat both sides of the sandwich. The cover plate 1 has a first support portion 3, and the first support portion 3 is provided with a first outer cover 4. The base 2 is provided with a second support portion 5, and the second support portion 5 is provided with a second outer cover 6. Both the first outer cover 4 and the second outer cover 6 are provided with a handle 7.

[0052] The conventional sandwich maker uses a locking piece, which has a simple structure but is deformed during use to fix the cover 1 and the base 2. However, when unlocking, the user not only needs to exert a certain force to deform the locking piece, but also needs to directly pull the locking piece with fingers, which can easily cause scratches on the hands and is inconvenient to unlock.

[0053] The locking assembly 8 and the unlocking assembly 9 in the present application cooperate with each other. When locking is required, it is only necessary to cover the cover 1 on the base 2, and then press the cover 1 so that the cover 1 fits with the base 2. When the cover 1 needs to be unlocked, it is only necessary to turn the driving hand wheel 10. When the driving hand wheel 10 is rotated, it can be unlocked whether it is rotated clockwise or counterclockwise. After the driving hand wheel 10 is rotated, the unlocking member 11 will rotate with it, so that the unlocking member 11 drives the strong magnetic member 12 to rotate to the upper end of the elastic member 13. The strong magnetic member 12 attracts the iron ring 14 and the iron bead 15, moves upward, and thus compresses the elastic member 13. At this time, the cover 1 can be opened by the handle 7.

[0054] An unlocking assembly 9 and locking assemblies 8 arranged at both ends of the unlocking assembly 9 are provided on the first support portion 3. Since the locking assemblies 8 are arranged at both ends of the unlocking assembly 9, rotating the unlocking assembly 9 can drive the locking assemblies 8 at both ends to rotate, so that the locking rod 16 can be disengaged from the locking cavity 17.

[0055] The unlocking assembly 9 includes a driving handwheel 10 , a driving member 18 , a movable member 19 and an unlocking member 11 . The driving handwheel 10 is mounted on the first outer cover 4 . The driving member 18 is connected to the driving handwheel 10 . The movable member 19 is meshed with the driving member 18 . The unlocking member 11 is meshed with the second tooth portion 20 .

[0056] The first outer cover 4 is provided with a first mounting groove 21, and the driving hand wheel 10 is provided with a first mounting portion 22 that matches the first mounting groove 21. A limiting cylinder 23 and a symmetrically arranged positioning column 24 are provided at the lower end of the first mounting portion 22, a polygonal groove 25 is provided in the middle of the limiting cylinder 23, and a symmetrically arranged limiting arc groove 26 is provided in the first mounting groove 21, and the positioning column 24 is located in the middle of the limiting arc groove 26. The angle of the limiting arc groove 26 is less than 180°, but when the unlocking member 11 is driven to rotate by the movable member 19, the strong magnetic member 12 can be rotated to reach the upper end of the elastic member 13. A limiting hole 27 that matches the limiting cylinder 23 is provided in the middle of the first mounting groove 21, which is used to fix the position of the limiting cylinder 23.

[0057] The driving member 18 is provided with a first gear 28, the upper end of the first gear 28 is provided with a polygonal body 29 that matches the polygonal groove 25, the lower end is provided with a positioning rod 30, and the first support portion 3 is provided with a positioning sleeve 31 for placing the positioning rod 30. Since the polygonal groove 25 is set in a polygonal shape, it can drive the driving member 18 to rotate together.

[0058] In addition, a strip hole 32 is provided in the middle of the movable member 19, a reset member 33 is provided in the strip hole 32, a first toothed portion 34 is provided in the middle of the movable member 19 and second toothed portions 20 are provided at both ends, and the first gear 28 is meshed and connected with the first toothed portion 34. A first fixing column 35 is symmetrically arranged on the first support portion 3, a second fixing column 36 matching the first fixing column 35 is provided on the inner wall of the first outer cover 4, a third fixing column 37 is provided on the first fixing column 35, a first fixing hole 38 matching the third fixing column 37 is provided on the second fixing column 36, and the third fixing column 37 is located in the middle of the strip hole 32, one end of the reset member 33 contacts the third fixing column 37, and the other end contacts the inner wall of the strip hole 32.

[0059] The elastic member 13 and the reset member 33 are springs.

[0060] The first fixing post 35 and the second fixing post 36 cooperate with each other to enable the movable member 19 to slide between the first fixing post 35 and the second fixing post 36 .

[0061] Since the position of the first fixed column 35 does not change, only the movable member 19 changes position, when the movable member 19 is driven by the driving member 18 to move left and right, the reset member 33 at one end will be stretched and the reset member 33 at the other end will be compressed. When the driving hand wheel 10 is no longer subjected to external force, the reset member 33 will automatically drive the movable member 19 to reset under the action of its own elastic force, so that the first tooth portion 34 drives the first gear 28 to rotate, so that the positioning column 24 is again in the middle of the limiting arc groove 26.

[0062] The unlocking member 11 is composed of a second gear 39, a holding portion 40, a first rotating rod 41 and a second rotating rod 42. The second gear 39 is meshed and connected with the second toothed portion 20. The first rotating rod 41 is arranged on the second gear 39, the second rotating rod 42 is arranged at the lower end of the holding portion 40, the holding portion 40 is located at the lower end of the second gear 39, the first outer cover 4 is provided with a fourth fixing column 43 matched with the first rotating rod 41, the middle of the fourth fixing column 43 is provided with a second fixing hole 44, the first rotating rod 41 is located in the second fixing hole 44, and the bottom of the holding portion 40 is provided with a placement groove 45 for placing the strong magnetic member 12.

[0063] The locking assembly 8 includes a fixing member 46, a locking rod 16, an elastic member 13, an iron bead 15 and an iron ring 14. The fixing member 46 has a locking cavity 17 inside, and the unlocking member 11 is arranged on the fixing member 46. The locking rod 16 is arranged in the second outer cover 6, and the locking rod 16 has a locking portion 47. The elastic member 13, the iron bead 15 and the iron ring 14 are arranged in the locking cavity 17, and the iron ring 14 is located between the elastic member 13 and the iron bead 15, and the iron bead 15 is in contact with the locking portion 47.

[0064] The second support portion 5 is provided with an arc-shaped member 48, the arc angle of the arc-shaped member 48 is a major arc, and the arc-shaped member 48 has an arc opening 49, and the locking rod 16 is placed in the arc opening 49. Since the arc angle of the arc-shaped member 48 is a major arc, the locking rod 16 can be restricted in the arc opening 49, so that the locking rod 16 can slide up and down in the arc opening 49.

[0065] A through hole 50 cooperating with the arc-shaped member 48 is provided on the first support portion 3 and the second support portion 5. The through hole 50 is located at the upper end of the arc-shaped member 48 and cooperates with the arc opening 49, so that the locking rod 16 in the second outer cover 6 can pass through the through hole 50 and enter the first outer cover 4.

[0066] The fixing member 46 is provided with an eccentric portion 51, and an eccentric hole 52 is provided in the middle of the eccentric portion 51, and the second rotating rod 42 is located in the eccentric hole 52. The fixing member 46 is also provided with an insertion hole 53 in communication with the locking chamber 17 in the middle, and a slant surface 54 for guiding the iron bead 15 is provided at the connection between the insertion hole 53 and the locking chamber 17, and the slant surface 54 can make the iron bead 15 squeezed by the iron ring 14, so that the iron bead 15 contacts the locking portion 47.

[0067] The locking rod 16 is composed of a rod portion 55, a locking portion 47 and a pricking portion 56. The rod portion 55 has a third tooth portion 57. The diameter of the locking portion 47 is smaller than the diameter of the rod portion 55. The iron ring 14 has a small hole 58 in the middle for placing the locking rod 16. The diameter of the small hole 58 is larger than the diameter of the locking rod 16.

[0068] The first support portion 3 and the second support portion 5 have through holes 60 through which the toothed rod 59 passes.

[0069] Since the front end of the locking rod 16 is provided with a puncture portion 56 and the locking rod 16 is disposed inside the second outer cover 6, the user may be accidentally injured during use, so the locking rod 16 needs to be retracted into the second outer cover 6 after the cover 1 is opened. The gear rod 59 is disposed on the first support portion 3, so it will be opened together with the cover 1, and will not cause any danger to the user.

[0070] A symmetrically arranged fixing block 61 is provided on the second supporting portion 5, a third gear 62 is provided in the middle of the fixing block 61, a bottom plate 63 is provided at the lower end of the fixing member 46, a gear rod 59 is provided at the lower end of the bottom plate 63, a fourth tooth portion 64 meshing with the third gear 62 is provided on the gear rod 59, and the third tooth portion 57 is meshed and connected with the third gear 62.

[0071] When the cover plate 1 rotates to cover the base 2, the fourth tooth portion 64 on the gear rod 59 engages with the third gear 62, and then drives the third gear 62 to rotate. The third gear 62 drives the third tooth portion 57, and the third tooth portion 57 pushes the locking rod 16 to slide upward in the middle of the arc-shaped member 48, so that the locking portion 47 of the locking rod 16 enters the locking cavity 17 and is fixed by the iron bead 15.

[0072] The locking assembly 8 and unlocking assembly 9 in the present application can not only better fix the cover plate 1 on the base 2, but also prevent the lock piece from being lost or accidentally injured by the lock piece when the lock piece is used.

[0073] When opening, the driving hand wheel 10 is rotated, so that the driving hand wheel 10 drives the driving member 18 to rotate, the driving member 18 drives the movable member 19, and the movable member 19 drives the unlocking member 11 to rotate. Since the center lines of the unlocking member 11 and the elastic member 13 do not coincide, the rotation of the unlocking member 11 drives the strong magnetic member 12 to rotate, so that the strong magnetic member 12 rotates to the upper end of the elastic member 13, thereby attracting the iron ring 14 and the iron bead 15 to move upward. At this time, the cover 1 can be opened, the fourth tooth portion 64 drives the third gear 62 to rotate, and the third gear 62 drives the third tooth portion 57 to rotate, pulling the locking rod 16 to move downward, so that the locking rod 16 is stored in the second outer cover 6.

[0074] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention.
