Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of kitchen appliances, and in particular relates to a cooking utensil which is convenient for closing a cover and positioning. Background Art

[0002] A cooking utensil generally comprises a pot cover and a pot body. According to the assembly method of the pot cover and the pot body, the cooking utensil can be divided into a one-piece type and a two-piece type. The pot cover and the pot body of the one-piece cooking utensil are hinged so that the pot cover can be rotated around the hinge to open and close the lid. Although the one-piece type is convenient for positioning and closing the lid, the pot cover cannot be disassembled and washed, which is very troublesome for users to clean. The two-piece cooking utensil has the advantages of being easy to clean and store because the pot cover can be removed from the pot body. However, the user needs to frequently install and close the pot cover on the pot body, especially for a cooking utensil in which the pot body has pot teeth and the cover body has cover teeth to realize the pot cover and pot body buckling. It is necessary to first separate the pot teeth and the cover teeth from each other, place them in the correct separation position, and then rotate or engage them to achieve the locking of the pot teeth and the cover teeth. Since the user cannot see the relative positions of the pot teeth and the cover teeth when performing this operation, it results in blind installation. At this time, it is very likely that the pot teeth and the cover teeth will collide with each other, and the pot lid cannot be placed in the proper position, or the pot teeth and the cover teeth that match them will not match correctly, causing the pot lid to be offset and unable to be turned to close the lid; or the user does not know in which direction to place the pot, resulting in multiple collisions with the pot body and failure to achieve alignment, resulting in an extremely poor user experience.

[0003] In addition, for the storage of the split pot lid, the prior art also proposes a semi-connected structure for storing the pot lid in the open lid position, such as patent No. 201220205921.8 and 201220316786.4. By adding a hinge structure to the pot body, the pot lid is connected to the pot body when the lid is opened, thereby realizing the storage function of the connected pot lid; however, this method also requires the split pot lid to be blindly installed on the pot lid first, and then aligned with the hinge, and cannot solve the aforementioned lid alignment problem, and because the pot lid and the pot body are not aligned, the pot lid and the pot body are not aligned. The hinges are all fitted with a gap at the extreme side, and cannot form a precise alignment, resulting in interference and collision between the lid and the pot body when the lid is closed; and it is also impossible to achieve accurate misalignment of the lid teeth and the pot teeth and the locking gap; furthermore, when the lid is flipped open, the entire lid is supported only by the hinge structure on the side, and the lid often cannot be positioned, causing the lid to suddenly flip down, colliding with the pot body or injuring the user, or the entire lid tilts excessively outwards, making it very easy for the lid to flip over and fall off, seriously affecting the service life of the hinge and even the lid and pot body. Summary of the invention

[0004] The present invention provides a cooking utensil with a lid that is convenient for closing and positioning, so as to solve at least one of the above-mentioned background technical problems.

[0005] The technical solution adopted by the present invention is:

[0006] A cooking utensil that is easy to close and position the lid, comprising a pot lid and a pot body; the pot body is provided with pot teeth, the pot lid is provided with cover teeth, the pot teeth and the cover teeth are buckled to close or separate the lid; the pot lid comprises a pot lid body and a supporting cantilever detachably connected to the pot lid body; the supporting cantilever is hinged to the pot body; the supporting cantilever comprises a side supporting part and a top positioning part; when the pot lid body is in a flipped and opened state relative to the pot body, the side supporting part butts to support the side wall of the pot lid body to form a first positioning, and the top positioning part butts to support the upper part of the pot lid body to form a second positioning, and the first positioning and the second positioning are combined to form the coordinated positioning of the cover teeth and the pot teeth.

[0007] The cooking utensil for facilitating lid closing and positioning of the present invention also has the following additional technical features:

[0008] The pot cover body and the supporting cantilever are detachably connected via the first positioning and / or the second positioning.

[0009] The pot cover body is covered on the pot body, and the pot teeth and the cover teeth rotate relative to each other to realize the closing or separation of the cover; the first positioning is used for rotational circumferential positioning; the second positioning is used for anti-shaking axial positioning.

[0010] One of the supporting cantilever and the pot cover body is provided with an insert tongue, and the other is provided with a rotation groove; the insert tongue can slide relative to the rotation groove to form a first positioning; the first positioning includes an insertion position and a disengagement position; in the insertion position, the insert tongue is located in the rotation groove, and the pot cover body is connected to the supporting cantilever; in the disengagement position, the insert tongue is disengaged from the rotation groove, and the side wall of the pot cover body is disengaged from the supporting cantilever.

[0011] The pot cover body is also provided with a rotation-stopping protrusion. In the disengaged position, the rotation-stopping protrusion abuts against the supporting cantilever to limit the rotation of the pot cover body relative to the pot body.

[0012] The supporting cantilever is provided with a first magnetic part, and the pot cover body is provided with a second magnetic part. In the lid separation position, the first magnetic part and the second magnetic part correspond to each other and attract each other. In the lid closing position, the first magnetic part and the second magnetic part are misaligned.

[0013] One of the top positioning portion and the pot cover body is provided with a boss; the other is provided with a groove matched with the boss; the groove cooperates with the boss to form the second positioning.

[0014] The boss or the groove is arranged in the middle of the pot cover body; the groove and the boss have a first transverse gap; the cover teeth and the pot teeth have a second transverse gap; the first transverse gap is not larger than the second transverse gap.

[0015] The supporting cantilever is also provided with a control interface, and the control interface is arranged on the top positioning portion.

[0016] A support structure is provided below the control interface, and the support structure supports the support cantilever so that the control interface is placed stably.

[0017] Due to the adoption of the above technical solution, the beneficial effects achieved by the present invention are as follows:

[0018] 1. The pot cover body is detachably connected to the supporting cantilever, so that the pot cover body can be separated from the supporting cantilever and removed from the pot body, thereby realizing the function of a split pot cover; when the pot cover body is re-placed, since the supporting cantilever is hingedly fixed to the pot body, the supporting cantilever is provided with a side supporting portion for supporting and positioning the side wall of the pot cover body, so that the pot cover body can be preferentially supported and placed on the side supporting portion of the supporting cantilever to realize the first positioning; and since the supporting cantilever is also provided with a top positioning portion for supporting and positioning the upper part of the pot cover body, the upper part of the pot cover body can be positioned and placed through the top positioning portion to realize the second positioning; or the pot cover The main body can preferentially realize the positioning and placement of the upper part of the pot cover body through the top positioning part of the supporting cantilever to realize the second positioning; and then realize the positioning and placement of the side wall of the pot cover body through the side supporting part of the supporting cantilever to realize the first positioning; the top positioning part and the side supporting part cooperate to jointly position the pot cover body, so that the side wall and the upper part of the pot cover body are both positioned and placed, so that the user can place the pot cover body in the accurate flip-opening position, and the support placement is stable; then the lid closing action is performed, thereby reducing the user's lid closing difficulty, improving the accuracy of the pot cover placement position, and improving the user experience. Prevent users from blindly installing, causing interference and collision between the cover teeth and the pot teeth, or the cover teeth and the pot teeth are misaligned and cannot be fastened; of course, the user can realize the common positioning of the first positioning and the second positioning when operating the pot cover body, so as to quickly and stably position the pot cover body and connect it to the supporting cantilever.

[0019] Secondly, when opening the lid, the pot cover body can be flipped open together with the supporting cantilever; during the process of opening the lid and when the pot cover body is in a flipped and opened state relative to the pot body, the side wall of the pot cover body can be supported and positioned by the side supporting part of the supporting cantilever; the upper part of the pot cover body is supported and positioned by the top positioning part of the supporting cantilever; thereby achieving a good lid opening effect; preventing the pot cover body from shaking or tilting excessively during the opening process and when being placed because the pot cover is only hinged on the side of the pot cover body.

[0020] Thirdly, when the user opens the lid after finishing cooking, the user can choose to disassemble and separate the supporting cantilever from the pot lid body first. That is, since the supporting cantilever is hinged to the pot body, the supporting cantilever can be flipped over first; and then the pot lid body can be removed to realize the function of the split pot lid.

[0021] 2. The pot cover body can be detachably connected to the supporting cantilever through the first positioning; the pot cover body can be supported and limited through the second positioning and the supporting cantilever to achieve accurate and stable positioning; the pot cover body can be detachably connected to the supporting cantilever through the second positioning, and the supporting and limiting cantilevering can be performed through the first positioning and the supporting cantilever; the positioning can also be made more stable and accurate, and the pot cover body can be detachably connected through the first positioning and the second positioning respectively.

[0022] 3. For a cooking utensil that realizes the change of the relative position of the pot teeth and the cover teeth by rotating the pot cover body to realize the locking and closing of the lid or the separation of the lid, when the pot teeth and the cover teeth are in overlapping locking position, the pot cover body and the pot body are locked and the lid is closed, and when the pot cover body and the cover teeth are misaligned with each other, the pot cover body and the pot body can be separated to open the lid; the present invention uses the first positioning for rotational circumferential positioning to ensure that during the lid closing operation, the cover teeth of the pot cover body and the pot teeth of the pot body are first in a mutually misaligned and matched position, and the problem of blind installation will not occur, causing interference and collision between the cover teeth and the pot teeth; after rotating the pot cover body, the rotational circumferential positioning of the first positioning is to enable the pot teeth and the cover teeth to be in a fully locked state, preventing the user from blindly rotating by himself, resulting in partial locking of the cover teeth with the pot teeth, that is, incomplete lid closing, at which time there will be a risk of safety hazard and lid collapse. For example, during pressure cooking, the locking force of some cover teeth and pot teeth cannot withstand the pressure in the pot, causing the risk of the pot cover collapsing. In addition, since the pot cover body, especially the central position of the upper part of the pot cover body, has the maximum floating amount when cooking or pressure cooking, the high temperature and high pressure at the first positioning point of the side support part and the side wall of the pot cover body have the least effect on its deformation. Therefore, by using the first positioning point located at the side support part and the side wall of the pot cover body for rotational circumferential positioning, the stability and service life of the positioning at the first positioning point are guaranteed, and the problem of rotational cooperation failure caused by multiple and large floating deformations of the rotational circumferential positioning point due to the floating amount is prevented.

[0023] The present invention uses the second positioning for anti-sway axial positioning, so that the pot cover body can be positioned relative to the pot body and can rotate smoothly relative to the pot body, ensuring that the pot cover body and the pot body can be smoothly buckled together or separated from the pot body; and ensuring the uniformity of the transverse gap between the cover teeth and the pot teeth, ensuring that after the cover teeth and the pot teeth are buckled, the entire pot cover body is in the center of the pot body, and there will be no situation where the pot cover body has a large margin on one side relative to the pot body and a small margin on the other side or even interference occurs, causing the pot cover body to shake a lot relative to the pot body and make a lot of noise; and the second positioning is used for anti-sway axial positioning, and can also improve the sealing uniformity of the pot cover body and the pot body after the cover is closed, ensuring safe and fast cooking; and in the open lid position, the anti-sway circumferential positioning of the second positioning can also ensure that the pot cover body can fully play the supporting and positioning function in the flipped upright state, preventing the large shaking between the pot cover body and the supporting cantilever from causing the upper part of the pot cover body to be unable to be supported and positioned in the upright state.

[0024] 4. One of the supporting cantilever and the pot cover body is provided with an inserting tongue, and the other is provided with a rotating groove; the inserting tongue can slide relative to the rotating groove to form a first positioning; the structure is simple and easy to operate, and the user can realize the fixed connection between the pot cover body and the supporting cantilever while rotating to release the engagement between the cover teeth and the pot teeth, thereby realizing the function of the one-piece pot cover, without other unnecessary actions; the user can realize the engagement between the cover teeth and the pot teeth while rotating, and the supporting cantilever and the side wall of the pot cover body are separated, that is, after the supporting cantilever realizes accurate alignment and closing of the pot cover body, they are separated from each other, at this time, it is ensured that after the pot cover body and the pot body are locked, the supporting cantilever can be turned over to detach from the connection with the pot cover body, thereby realizing the function of the split pot cover; it can also realize the fixed connection with the supporting cantilever when opening the lid, thereby realizing the function of the one-piece pot cover, and the mutual coordinated positioning of the two can be realized.

[0025] 5. The pot cover body is also provided with a rotation-stopping protrusion. In the disengaged position, the rotation-stopping protrusion abuts against the supporting cantilever to limit the rotation of the pot cover body relative to the pot body. Thus, the rotation stroke of the pot cover body is limited by the position-limiting of the rotation-stopping protrusion and the supporting cantilever to prevent excessive rotation, which would cause the cover teeth and the locking teeth to re-close the cover.

[0026] 6. The pot cover body is connected to or separated from the supporting cantilever by mutual attraction or misalignment separation of the first magnetic member and the second magnetic member, and when the pot cover body is in the separated cover position relative to the pot body or in the process of separating the cover, the first magnetic member and the second magnetic member correspond and attract each other or gradually approach to correspond and gradually attract each other, so that the pot cover body is connected and fixed to the supporting cantilever in the separated cover position, and the relative shaking of the pot cover body and the supporting cantilever can be reduced under the action of magnetic attraction, so that the connection between the pot cover body and the supporting cantilever is more stable; thereby ensuring that the pot cover body realizes the function of a one-piece pot cover; in addition, when the separated cover position is reached during the process of separating the cover, since the attraction between the first magnetic member and the second magnetic member is the largest at this time, a fitting sound will be generated at the facing position to prompt the user that the cover is in place and the flip cover action can be performed.

[0027] In the snap-fitting position, the first magnetic part and the second magnetic part are staggered, thereby reducing the restriction of the support cantilever on the pot cover body, so that when the pot cover body is subjected to high temperature and high pressure during the cooking process, it has a certain amount of deformation, preventing the pot cover body from being in the snap-fitting position. The support cantilever fixes the pot cover body through the first magnetic part and the second magnetic part, limiting its upward or side deformation, causing safety hazards or breakage, etc., and reducing the normal service life.

[0028] 7. One of the top positioning portion and the pot cover body is provided with a boss, and the other is provided with a groove, so as to realize support positioning and anti-sway circumferential positioning of the upper part of the pot cover body through the plug-in fit of the boss and the groove, and the boss or the groove is provided in the middle part of the pot cover body, that is, the top positioning portion of the supporting cantilever at least covers the middle part of the pot cover body, thereby realizing more stable and accurate positioning fit. After the two are plugged into each other, a first transverse gap is formed on the peripheral side, and the cover teeth and the pot teeth have a second transverse gap after they are matched. The first transverse gap is not larger than the second transverse gap, so that the boss and the groove are used as priority limits. When the pot cover body shakes laterally, since the first transverse gap is smaller, the boss and the groove will first contact and stop. After the two stop, the cover teeth and the pot teeth still do not contact, or the two just contact, and then the movement of the pot cover body is limited by the cooperation of the positioning protrusion and the positioning groove, ensuring that the cover teeth and the pot teeth will not interfere excessively, reducing the friction between the cover teeth and the pot teeth, and allowing the user to rotate the pot cover body more smoothly, thereby improving the operating feel.

[0029] 8. The control interface is located at the top positioning part of the supporting cantilever, so that the control interface is located above the pot cover body. Therefore, the user can directly observe the display information on the control interface from above and operate the control interface, which reduces the difficulty of operation and improves the user experience. This solves the problem that the control interface of the split pot cover is set on the pot body and needs to bend over to operate.

[0030] A supporting structure is arranged between the control interface and the pot cover body, and the supporting structure supports the control interface to make up for the gap between the control interface and the top surface of the pot cover body. When the user presses the control interface downward, the supporting structure forms an upward supporting force on the control interface, so that the user obtains obvious force feedback, which not only improves the user's operating feel and reduces the feeling of failure during operation, but also reduces the up and down shaking of the control interface, so that the control interface is placed stably and the noise generated by shaking is reduced.

[0058] like Figure 1-5 As shown, in this embodiment, the pot cover body 3 and the supporting cantilever 4 are detachably connected, so that the pot cover body 3 can be separated from the supporting cantilever 4 and removed from the pot body 1, thereby realizing the function of a split pot cover; Figure 3-5As shown, when the pot cover body 3 is re-placed, since the supporting cantilever 4 is hingedly fixed to the pot body 1, the supporting cantilever 4 is provided with a side support portion 41 for supporting and positioning the side wall of the pot cover body 3, so that the pot cover body 3 can be preferentially supported and placed on the side support portion 41 of the supporting cantilever 4 to achieve a first positioning 43; and since the supporting cantilever 4 is also provided with a top positioning portion 42 for supporting and positioning the upper part of the pot cover body 3, the upper part of the pot cover body 3 can be positioned and placed through the top positioning portion 42 to achieve a second positioning 44; or the pot cover body 3 can preferentially achieve pot positioning through the top positioning portion 42 of the supporting cantilever 4 The upper part of the lid body 3 is positioned and placed to achieve the second positioning 44; the side wall of the pot lid body 3 is positioned and placed through the side support part 41 of the supporting cantilever 4 to achieve the first positioning 43; the top positioning part 42 and the side support part 41 cooperate to position the pot lid body 3, so that the side wall and the upper part of the pot lid body 3 are positioned and placed, so that the user can place the pot lid body 3 in the accurate position state when the pot body 1 is turned over to open the lid, and then close the lid, thereby reducing the user's difficulty in closing the lid, improving the accuracy of the placement position of the pot lid body, and improving the user experience. Prevent users from blindly installing, causing the cover teeth 21 to interfere with the pot teeth 11 or the cover teeth 21 and the pot teeth 11 to be misaligned and unable to buckle; of course, the user can simultaneously achieve the first positioning 43 and the second positioning 44 when operating the pot lid body, so as to quickly and stably position the pot lid body 3 and connect it to the supporting cantilever 4.

[0059] like Figure 4 As shown, secondly, when opening the lid, the pot cover body 3 can be flipped open together with the supporting cantilever 4; during the process of opening the lid and when the pot body 1 is flipped open, the side wall of the pot cover body 3 can be supported and positioned by the side supporting part 41 of the supporting cantilever 4; the upper part of the pot cover body 3 is supported and positioned by the top positioning part 42 of the supporting cantilever 4; thereby achieving a good and smooth lid opening effect; preventing the pot cover from being unstable or overly tilted during the opening process and when placed due to the pot cover body being hinged only on the side of the pot cover body.

[0060] like Figure 5 As shown, again, when the user opens the lid after finishing cooking, the user can choose to disassemble and separate the supporting cantilever 4 from the pot lid body 3 first, that is, since the supporting cantilever 4 is hinged to the pot body 1, the supporting cantilever 4 can be flipped over first; and then the pot lid body 3 can be taken away to realize the function of the split pot lid.

[0061] In this embodiment, the pot body 1 is provided with pot teeth 11, and the pot cover 2 is provided with cover teeth 21, and the pot teeth 11 and the cover teeth 21 are buckled together to close the cover or separate the cover; it can specifically include the following implementation modes:

[0063] Embodiment 2: The pot teeth and the cover teeth can be engaged or disengaged by means of engagement and disengagement to achieve snap-on or separate lid closure; for example, the cover teeth of the pot cover body can be relative to the pot teeth, and the cover teeth can be controlled to be tightened by a caliper-type structure to engage with the pot teeth; or the cover teeth can be controlled to release the tightening state to separate from the pot teeth to achieve disengagement.

[0064] In this embodiment, the supporting cantilever 4 is hinged to the pot body 1; it may specifically include the following implementation modes:

[0065] Implementation method 1: Figure 3-5 The supporting cantilever 4 is integrally hinged to the pot body 1 via a rotating shaft, so that the supporting cantilever 4 can be flipped relative to the pot body 1 .

[0067] Preferably, the pot cover body 3 and the supporting cantilever 4 are detachably connected through the first positioning 43 and / or the second positioning 44. The pot cover body 3 can be detachably connected to the supporting cantilever 4 through the first positioning 43; the first positioning 43 is realized while the connection is realized; the second positioning 44 is supported and limited with the supporting cantilever 4 to realize accurate and stable positioning; the pot cover body 3 can also be detachably connected to the supporting cantilever 4 through the second positioning 44, and the second positioning 44 is realized while the connection is realized, and the first positioning 43 is supported and limited with the supporting cantilever 4; the positioning can also be made more stable and accurate, and the pot cover body 3 can be detachably connected and positioned through the first positioning 43 and the second positioning 44 respectively. It can specifically include the following implementation modes:

[0068] Embodiment 1: The top positioning part includes a plug-in part; the pot cover body includes a connecting part that cooperates with the plug-in part; the plug-in part is plugged and fixed on the connecting part to form a second positioning; at this time, the second positioning realizes both a detachable connection and positioning of the upper part of the pot cover body. For example, the top positioning part includes a connecting shaft, the pot cover body is provided with a fixing hole, and the connecting shaft is inserted into the fixing hole to form the second positioning; or, the top positioning part includes a plug-in rib; the pot cover body is provided with a fixing buckle; the plug-in rib is inserted into the fixing buckle to form the second positioning; or, the top positioning part includes a plug-in column; the pot cover body is provided with a fixing groove; the plug-in column is inserted into the fixing groove to form the second positioning; of course, the above-mentioned second positioning structure can also be used for the first positioning, that is, the detachable connection is realized through the first positioning while realizing the support positioning of the pot cover body, which will not be repeated here.

[0069] Implementation method 2: Figure 13-14 , one of the bottom of the top positioning portion 42 and the top of the pot cover body 3 is provided with a stop rib 37; the other is provided with a stop groove 49; during the rotation of the pot cover body 3 relative to the pot body 1, or during the clamping or unlocking of the pot cover body 3 relative to the pot body 1, the stop rib 37 cooperates with the stop groove 49 to form a second positioning 44; at this time, the second positioning 44 not only realizes the detachable connection, but also realizes the rotational circumferential positioning of the upper part of the pot cover body 3. Of course, the above-mentioned second positioning structure can also be used for the first positioning, that is, the detachable connection is realized by the first positioning while realizing the support positioning of the pot cover body, which will not be repeated here.

[0070] Embodiment 3: The top positioning part is provided with a magnetic device; the pot cover body is provided with a magnet corresponding to the top positioning part; the pot cover body and the supporting cantilever are detachably connected by the attraction or separation of the magnetic device and the magnet, and the cooperation of the magnetic device and the magnet forms a second positioning; at this time, the second positioning realizes both the detachable connection and the positioning of the upper part of the pot cover body. Of course, the above-mentioned second positioning structure can also be used for the first positioning, that is, the detachable connection is realized by the first positioning while the supporting positioning of the pot cover body is realized, which will not be repeated here.

[0071] Preferably, Figure 1-Figure 14 The pot cover body 3 is covered on the pot body 1, and the pot teeth 11 and the cover teeth 21 rotate relative to each other to realize the closing or separation of the cover; the first positioning 43 is used for rotational circumferential positioning; the second positioning 44 is used for anti-shaking axial positioning.

[0072] For a cooking utensil that realizes the change of the relative position of the pot teeth 11 and the cover teeth 21 by rotating the pot cover body 3 to realize the buckling of the lid or the separation of the lid, when the pot teeth 11 and the cover teeth 21 are in the overlapped buckling position, the pot cover body 3 and the pot body 1 are buckled and the lid is closed; when the pot cover 11 and the cover teeth 21 are misaligned with each other, the pot cover body 3 and the pot body 1 are separated and the lid can be opened; the present invention uses the first positioning 43 for rotational circumferential positioning to ensure that when the lid is turned over and closed, the cover teeth 21 of the pot cover body 3 and the pot teeth 11 of the pot body 1 are first in a mutually misaligned matching position. The first positioning device 43 is circumferentially positioned so that the pot teeth 11 and the cover teeth 21 are in a fully engaged state, thereby preventing the existing users from blindly rotating the pot cover body 3, causing partial engagement of the cover teeth 21 with the pot teeth 11, i.e., the cover is not fully closed. At this time, there is a risk of safety hazard of cover collapse. For example, during pressure cooking, the engagement force of part of the cover teeth 21 and the pot teeth 11 cannot withstand the pressure in the pot, causing the risk of the pot cover collapsing. In addition, since the pot cover body 3, especially the central position of the upper part of the pot cover body 3, has the maximum floating amount when cooking or pressure cooking, the high temperature and high pressure at the first positioning 43 of the side support part 41 and the side wall of the pot cover body 3 have the least effect on its deformation. Therefore, by using the first positioning 43 located at the side support part 41 and the side wall of the pot cover body 3 for rotational circumferential positioning, the stability and service life of the positioning at the first positioning 43 are guaranteed, and the rotational cooperation failure problem caused by multiple and large floating deformations of the rotational circumferential positioning due to the floating amount is prevented.

[0073] The present invention uses the second positioning 44 for anti-sway axial positioning, so that the pot cover body 3 can be positioned relative to the pot body 1 and can rotate smoothly relative to the pot body 1, ensuring that the pot cover body 3 and the pot body 1 can be smoothly buckled together or separated from the pot body 1; and ensuring the uniformity of the transverse gap between the cover teeth 21 and the pot teeth 11, ensuring that after the cover teeth 21 and the pot teeth 11 are buckled, the entire pot cover body 3 is in the center of the pot body, and there will be no situation where the pot cover body 3 has a large margin on one side relative to the pot body 1 and a small margin on the other side or even interference occurs, causing the pot cover body 2 to shake a lot relative to the pot body 1 and make a lot of noise; and the second positioning 44 is used for anti-sway axial positioning, which can also improve the sealing uniformity of the pot cover body 3 and the pot body 1 after the cover is closed, ensuring safe and fast cooking; and in the open cover position, the anti-sway circumferential positioning of the second positioning 44 can also ensure that the pot cover body 3 can fully play the supporting and positioning function in the flipped upright state, preventing the large shaking between the pot cover body 3 and the supporting cantilever 4 from causing the upper part of the pot cover body to be unable to be supported and positioned in the upright state.

[0074] It should be noted that the above-mentioned rotational circumferential positioning refers to the positioning and stopping of the pot cover body relative to the circumferential position of the pot body, so that when the pot cover body is placed on the pot body, the pot teeth and the cover teeth are misaligned with each other, and the pot cover body is covered on the pot body in the correct position, and there is no interference or collision between the pot teeth and the cover teeth; and in the process of closing the lid, the circumferential limit is set on the rotation distance, so that the cover teeth and the pot teeth are fully engaged.

[0075] The anti-sway axial positioning mentioned above refers to that the central axis of the pot cover body and the central axis of the pot body are as coincident and concentric as possible, so as to correct the deviation of the pot cover body relative to the pot body and prevent it from shaking and making noise.

[0076] Preferably, Figure 1-12 As shown, one of the supporting cantilever 4 and the pot cover body 3 is provided with an insert tongue 31, and the other is provided with a rotation groove 45; the insert tongue 31 can slide relative to the rotation groove 45 to form a first positioning 43; the first positioning 43 includes an insertion position and a disengagement position; in the insertion position, the insert tongue 31 is located in the rotation groove 45, and the pot cover body 3 is connected to the supporting cantilever 4; in the disengagement position, the insert tongue 31 is disengaged from the rotation groove 45, and the side wall of the pot cover body 3 is disengaged from the supporting cantilever 4.

[0077] The first position 43 is formed by rotating the lid body 3 and the second position 44, and the second position 45 is formed by rotating the lid body 3 and the second position 45. The first position 43 is formed by rotating the lid body 3 and the second position 44, and the second position 44 is formed by rotating the lid body 3 and the second position 44. The first position 43 is formed by rotating the lid body 3 and the second position 44, and the second position 44 is formed by rotating the lid body 3 and the second position 44. The second position 43 is formed by rotating the lid body 3 and the second position 44, and the second position 44 is formed by rotating the lid body 3 and the second position 44. In this embodiment, the inserting tongue 31 is arranged on the pot cover body 3, and the rotating groove 45 is arranged on the supporting cantilever, so that the structure of the detachable pot cover body 3 is simpler and easier to clean.

[0078] As a preference, Figure 3-Figure 6 The pot cover body 3 is also provided with a rotation-stopping protrusion 32. In the disengaged position, the rotation-stopping protrusion 32 abuts against the supporting cantilever 4 to limit the rotation of the pot cover body 3 relative to the pot body 1, thereby realizing the rotational circumferential positioning of the pot cover body 3 relative to the pot body 1 and preventing the pot cover body 3 from being rotated excessively, so that the cover teeth 21 of the pot cover body 3 and the pot teeth 11 are buckled and locked again.

[0079] As a preference, Figure 11-12 The supporting cantilever 4 is provided with a first magnetic component 46, and the pot cover body 3 is provided with a second magnetic component 33. In the separated cover position, the first magnetic component 46 and the second magnetic component 33 correspond to each other to attract each other. In the buckled cover position, the first magnetic component 46 and the second magnetic component 33 are staggered.

[0080] The pot cover body 3 is connected to or separated from the supporting cantilever 4 by mutual attraction or misalignment separation of the first magnetic member 46 and the second magnetic member 33, and when the pot cover body 3 is in the separated cover position relative to the pot body 1 or in the process of separating the cover, the first magnetic member 46 and the second magnetic member 33 correspond and attract each other or gradually approach to correspond and gradually attract each other, so that the pot cover body 3 is connected and fixed to the supporting cantilever 4 in the separated cover position, and the relative shaking of the pot cover body 3 and the supporting cantilever 4 can be reduced under the action of magnetic attraction, so that the connection between the pot cover body 3 and the supporting cantilever 4 is more stable; thereby ensuring that the pot cover body 3 realizes the function of a one-piece pot cover; in addition, when the separated cover position is reached during the process of separating the cover, since the attraction between the first magnetic member 46 and the second magnetic member 33 is the largest at this time, a fitting sound will be generated at the facing position to prompt the user that the cover is in place and the flip cover action can be performed.

[0081] In the snap-fitting position, the first magnetic part 46 and the second magnetic part 33 are staggered, thereby reducing the restriction of the support cantilever 4 on the pot cover body 3, so that when the pot cover body 3 is subjected to high temperature and high pressure during the cooking process, it has a deformation amount to prevent the pot cover body 3 from being in the snap-fitting position. The support cantilever 4 fixes the pot cover body 3 through the first magnetic part 46 and the second magnetic part 33, limiting its upward or lateral deformation, causing safety hazards or breakage, etc., and reducing the normal service life.

[0082] As a preference, Figure 7-10 , one of the top positioning part 42 and the pot cover body 3 is provided with a boss 47; the other is provided with a groove 34 that cooperates with the boss 47; the groove 34 cooperates with the boss 47 to form the second positioning. In this embodiment, the boss 47 is provided on the top positioning part 42; the groove 34 is provided on the pot cover body 3, and the groove 34 is provided in the middle part of the pot cover body 3, that is, the top positioning part 42 of the supporting cantilever 4 at least covers the middle part of the pot cover body 3, so that a more stable and accurate positioning and cooperation can be achieved; it is prevented that only one side of the pot cover body 3 is positioned, resulting in the inability to fully position the pot cover body 3, and causing the pot cover body 3 to be tilted relative to the pot body 1.

[0083] After the groove 34 and the boss 47 cooperate, there is a first transverse gap L1; there is a second transverse gap L2 between the cover teeth 21 and the pot teeth 11; the first transverse gap L1 is not greater than the second transverse gap L2. The limit between the boss 47 and the groove 34 is used as the priority limit. When the pot cover body 3 shakes laterally, since the first transverse gap L1 is small, the boss 47 and the groove 34 will first contact and stop. After the two stop, the cover teeth 21 and the pot teeth 11 still do not contact, or the two just contact, and then the limit of the movement of the pot cover body 3 is achieved through the cooperation of the boss 47 and the groove 34, ensuring that the cover teeth 21 and the pot teeth 11 will not interfere excessively, reducing the friction between the cover teeth 21 and the pot teeth 11, and making the user turn the pot cover body more smoothly, improving the operating feel.

[0084] In addition, through the positioning cooperation of the boss 47 and the groove 34, the supporting cantilever 4 can be stably placed on the pot cover body 3 in the closed position, preventing the supporting cantilever 4 from shaking up and down and left and right relative to the pot cover body 3. In the open position, when the pot cover body 3 is turned over and stands on the pot body 1, the positioning cooperation of the boss 47 and the groove 34 allows the upper part of the pot cover body 3 to be stably plugged into the supporting cantilever 4; at the same time, the side support part 41 of the supporting cantilever 4 supports the side wall of the pot cover body, realizing the integral and stable connection of the pot cover body.

[0085] It should be noted that if Figure 7-10 As shown, the first transverse gap L1 refers to the maximum horizontal gap between the inner wall surface of the groove 34 and the outer wall surface of the boss 47 after the groove 34 and the boss 47 are matched.

[0086] The second transverse gap L2 refers to the minimum horizontal gap between the pot teeth 11 and the cover teeth 23 after they are engaged with each other. Specifically, Fig.10 As shown, the cover teeth 23 include an extension section 231 , a stop section 232 , and an outward expansion section 233 ; the second transverse gap L2 is the minimum horizontal gap between the inner wall surface of the extension section 231 and the outer wall surface of the pot teeth 11 .

[0087] As a preferred embodiment, the supporting cantilever 4 is further provided with a control interface 48 , and the control interface 48 is provided on the top positioning portion 42 .

[0088] A support structure 35 is disposed below the control interface 48 , and the support structure 35 supports the support cantilever 4 , so that the control interface 48 is placed stably.

[0089] The control interface 48 is located at the top positioning portion 42 of the support cantilever 4, so that the control interface 48 is located above the pot cover body 3, so that the user can directly observe the display information on the control interface 48 from above and operate the control interface 48, thereby reducing the difficulty of operation and improving the user experience. Since the support cantilever 4 is hinged to the pot body 1, the power supply in the pot body 1 can be connected to the electrical components in the support cantilever 4 to achieve power supply, thereby realizing the setting of the control interface 48 on the pot cover 2, and the pot cover body 3 can be detachable relative to the support cantilever 4 and the control interface 48, preventing the control interface 48 from getting wet and the pot cover body 3 from being difficult to clean, thereby solving the problem that the control interface of the split pot cover is set on the pot body and requires bending over to operate.

[0090] A support structure 35 is provided between the control interface 48 and the pot cover body 3. The support structure 35 supports the control interface 48 to fill the gap between the control interface 48 and the top surface of the pot cover body 3. When the user presses down on the control interface 48, the support structure 35 will form an upward support force on the control interface 48, so that the user can obtain obvious force feedback, which not only improves the user's operating feel and reduces the feeling of failure during operation, but also reduces the shaking of the control interface 48, so that the control interface 48 is placed stably and reduces the noise generated by shaking. Figure 11-12 As shown, in this embodiment, the support structure 35 is a convex portion arranged at the bottom of the support cantilever 4, which protrudes from the support cantilever 4 and presses against the upper part of the pot cover body 3 to achieve stable placement of the support cantilever 4 and the pot cover body 3, and the control interface 48 is arranged at the top of the support structure 35 corresponding to the support cantilever 4 to provide support for operating the control interface 48.

[0091] As a preferred embodiment, Figure 1-Figure 2 As shown, the pot lid body 3 is also provided with a handle 36, and the handle 36 and the supporting cantilever 4 are arranged in a staggered manner, so that the user has operating space to flip and open and close the pot lid body 3 through the handle 36. As a more preferred embodiment, the handle 36 is arranged on the side or edge of the pot lid body 3, deviating from the center of the pot lid, so as to give the supporting cantilever 4 more space to limit the pot lid body 3. Preferably, when the handle 36 is located in the locking position where the cover teeth 21 and the pot teeth 11 are buckled, the opposite side of the hinge between the supporting cantilever 4 and the pot body increases the rotational force arm, so that the user can save more effort whether rotating the pot lid body 3 in a horizontal plane through the handle 36 or flipping and opening the pot lid body, thereby improving the user experience.
