Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of pressure cookers, in particular to a double sealing mechanism for a pressure cooker. Background Art

[0002] There are many kinds of cooking utensils on the market, such as electric pressure cookers. A general electric pressure cooker includes a lid and a pot body, wherein the lid is provided with a sealing ring. When the lid is closed on the pot body, the sealing ring seals the pot mouth of the pot body. However, the common problems of pressure cookers on the market are: the sealing rings of most pressure cookers on the market are single-layer silicone parts. Once they are deformed or damaged, air leakage will occur, affecting the normal use of the pressure cooker; in addition, after a period of use, the pot mouth sealing ring will shrink and deform inward, which will cause the sealing between the pot mouth sealing ring and the pot mouth to decrease and cause air leakage, making it difficult to reach or maintain the rated pressure in the pot, resulting in problems such as reduced food quality, inability to cook or overflowing the pot. The existing pot mouth sealing ring has a short service life and needs to be replaced regularly, increasing maintenance costs. Utility Model Content
