Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of kitchenware, in particular to a key fixing structure and a kitchenware. Background Art

[0002] When people use cooking utensils for steaming, they usually need to adjust the temperature to meet the heat requirements at different stages of cooking.

[0003] The kitchenware includes a shell and a control component arranged in the shell. The control component includes a plurality of buttons, a slider, a lever and a magnet. The button contacts the slider through an inclined surface. When the button is pressed, the inclined surface of the button squeezes the inclined surface of the slider and drives the slider to slide up or down. The slider drives the lever to rotate and attract or separate from the magnet to connect or disconnect the circuit to achieve the steaming or heat preservation function. In this technical solution, the inclined surface of the button is squeezed and matched with the inclined surface of the slider. The greater the pressing force, the greater the dynamic friction between the inclined surfaces, which increases the risk of the magnet and the lever being unable to separate, resulting in food burning and fuse burning.

[0028] First embodiment:

[0029] This embodiment discloses a key fixing structure.

[0030] Figure 1 This is an axonometric diagram of the key fixing structure of the utility model. Figure 1 As shown, the key fixing structure includes a panel 2 and a key 1. The panel 2 includes a plurality of groups of first buckles 21, which are symmetrically arranged on the first surface of the panel 2, and each first buckle 21 and the panel 2 enclose a slide groove 24 with an opening. The openings of the two slide grooves 24 of the same group are arranged facing each other, and the two sides of the key 1 slide into the slide grooves 24 respectively.

[0031] Figure 2 This is an isometric view of the panel in the key fixing structure of the utility model. Figure 2 As shown, illustratively, the first buckle 21 has two groups, which are arranged at intervals along the vertical direction on the first surface of the panel 2, where the first surface is the surface close to the inner side of the kitchenware. The slide groove 24 passes through the first buckle 21 along the vertical direction to avoid the inner wall of the slide groove 24 being an inclined surface, so that when the button 1 contacts the inner wall of the slide groove 24, pressure on the inclined surface is generated, which is convenient for users to operate. The first buckle 21 is divided into multiple groups, shortening the length of each section of the slide groove 24, guiding the sliding of the button 1, reducing the contact area between the two sides of the button 1 and the slide groove 24, and further reducing the friction between the button 1 and the slide groove 24.

[0032] Figure 3 This is an isometric diagram of the key in the key fixing structure of the utility model. Figure 3As shown, further, the key 1 further includes a first groove 13, and the first groove 13 is opened at both ends of the first surface of the key 1. Exemplarily, there are a plurality of first grooves 13, which are opened at intervals at both ends of the first surface of the key 1, reducing the contact area between the two sides of the key 1 and the slide groove 24, and further reducing the friction between the key 1 and the slide groove 24.

[0033] like Figure 3 As shown, further, the key 1 includes a dial block 11, which is arranged on the second surface of the key 1. The panel 2 also includes a first through hole 23. The dial block 11 passes through the first through hole 23 and is exposed from the panel 2, which is convenient for the user to dial the key 1. At the same time, the first through hole 23 limits the stroke of the dial block 11 moving up and down, that is, limits the stroke of the key 1, preventing the key 1 from falling out of the slide slot 24.

[0034] In this embodiment, by sliding both sides of the button 1 into the slide groove 24 enclosed by the first buckle 21 and the panel 2, the contact area between the button 1 and the opening is small, the friction is small, and the moving force applied when moving the button 1 is in the same direction as the moving direction of the button 1, it will not be converted into friction between the contact surface of the button 1 and the opening. The structure is simple, the button 1 moves smoothly, and the user experience of the product is improved.

[0035] Second embodiment:

[0036] This embodiment discloses a kitchen utensil. For example, the kitchen utensil is an electric rice cooker. Those skilled in the art may know that the technical solution disclosed in this disclosure may also be applicable to other types of kitchen utensil that require heating, such as an electric frying pan, an electric boiling pot, etc.

[0037] Figure 4 It is a structural schematic diagram of the kitchenware of the utility model in the first use state. Figure 5 FIG. 2 is a schematic diagram of the structure of the kitchenware of the utility model in the second use state. Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the kitchenware includes a housing 6, a key fixing structure, a lever 3 and a thermosensitive magnetic device 5. The housing 6 is a hollow structure, the key fixing structure as mentioned above is arranged in the housing 6, the lever 3 is rotatably connected in the housing 6, and the thermosensitive magnetic device 5 is fixed to the top of the housing 6. Figure 4 As shown, the button 1 moves between the slide slots 24 to the first state, the button 1 pushes the first end of the lever 3, the lever 3 rotates to the first angle, and the second end of the lever 3 triggers the thermosensitive magnetic device 5. Figure 5 As shown, the thermosensitive magnetic device 5 is reset and pushes the second end of the lever 3, the lever 3 rotates to the second angle, and the first end of the lever 3 pushes the button 1 to move between the slide slots 24 to the second state.

[0038] like Figure 4 and Figure 5As shown, illustratively, a second groove 61 is provided at the upper end of the shell 6, and the inner liner 7 is placed in the second groove 61. The thermosensitive magnetic device 5 is buried at the bottom of the second groove 61, and heat is transferred between the inner liner 7 and the thermosensitive magnetic device 5. The thermosensitive magnetic device 5 is a temperature-sensitive magnetic steel. When the inner liner 7 is not heated, the thermosensitive magnetic device 5 is magnetic. When the inner liner 7 is heated to a certain temperature, the thermosensitive magnetic device 5 heats up together and loses its magnetism. A second buckle 22 is also provided on the first surface of the panel 2, and the second buckle 22 is engaged with the side of the shell 6 to fix the panel 2 on the shell 6.

[0039] Figure 6 This is an axonometric diagram of the key fixing structure, lever and mounting block of the utility model. Figures 4 to 6 As shown, further, the kitchenware also includes a mounting block 4, which is fixed in the housing 6. The lever 3 passes through and is rotatably connected to the mounting block 4. Exemplarily, the lever 3 includes a first portion 31, a second portion 32 and a connecting portion 33. The first portion 31 is a straight rod, the second portion 32 is a straight rod parallel to the first portion 31, the second portion 32 includes a rotating shaft 34, the rotating shaft 34 is connected to both sides of the second portion 32, and the connecting portion 33 is obliquely connected between the first portion 31 and the second portion 32. Preferably, the length of the first portion 31 is less than the length of the second portion 32, so that the button 1 drives the second portion 32 to move a longer arc with a shorter moving distance. The button 1 includes an extension portion 12 and a second through hole 121. The extension portion 12 extends from the first surface of the panel 2 and extends to the lower end of the button 1, and the second through hole 121 is opened at the lower end of the extension portion 12. The mounting block 4 includes a first frame 41 and a second frame 42, and the first frame 41 is a semi-frame type. The second frame 42 is a bending type, connected to the first frame 41, and the upper end is screwed into the kitchenware. The second frame 42 includes a third through hole 421. The first part 31 passes through the second through hole 121, the rotating shaft 34 passes through both sides of the first frame 41, and the second part 32 passes through the third through hole 421. The second through hole 121 and the third through hole 421 have a sufficient aperture for the first part 31 and the second part 32 to swing therein. The second through hole 121 and the third through hole 421 limit the rotation angle of the lever 3 to prevent the lever 3 from excessively rotating and damaging the components in the kitchenware.

[0040] like Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, further, the thermosensitive magnetic device 5 further includes a trigger end 51, a first end of the trigger end 51 is elastically connected to the lower end of the thermosensitive magnetic device 5, and a second end of the trigger end 51 is rotatably connected to the second end of the lever 3. Figure 4 As shown, the lever 3 rotates to the first angle, and the second end of the lever 3 pushes the trigger end 51 to overcome the elastic force and engage with the thermosensitive magnetic device 5. Figure 5As shown, the thermosensitive magnetic device 5 loses its magnetism, and the trigger end 51 pushes the second end of the lever 3 under the action of elastic force, the lever 3 rotates to the second angle, and the first end of the lever 3 pushes the button 1 to move between the slide slots 24 to the second state. Exemplarily, the second portion 32 is provided with a fourth through hole 321, and the output end passes through the fourth through hole 321. The inner diameter of the fourth through hole 321 is larger than the outer diameter of the trigger end 51, so that the second portion 32 can rotate relative to the trigger end 51. The trigger end 51 is located at both sides of the upper and lower ends of the fourth through hole 321, and wings (not shown in the figure) are extended to prevent the output end from escaping from the fourth through hole 321. The trigger end 51 is located in the heating circuit. When the trigger end 51 is attracted to the thermosensitive magnetic device 5, the circuit is connected, and when the trigger end 51 is separated from the thermosensitive magnetic device 5, the circuit is disconnected.

[0041] When this embodiment is working:

[0042] like Figure 4 As shown, when heating is required, the dial block 11 is moved, and the dial block 11 drives the button 1 to move between the slide groove 24 to the first state, the button 1 pushes the first part 31 of the lever 3, and the lever 3 rotates around the rotating shaft 34 to the first angle, and the second part 32 of the lever 3 pushes the trigger end 51 to overcome the elastic force and engage with the thermosensitive magnetic device 5, and the trigger end 51 connects the circuit, and the kitchenware heats the food.

[0043] like Figure 5 As shown, when heated to a certain temperature, the thermosensitive magnetic device 5 loses its magnetism, and the trigger end 51 pushes the second part 32 of the lever 3 under the action of elastic force, the trigger end 51 disconnects the circuit, the lever 3 rotates around the rotating shaft 34 to the second angle, and the first part 31 of the lever 3 pushes the button 1 to move between the slide groove 24 to the second state.

[0044] In this embodiment, by toggling the button 1 to move to the first state in the slide slot 24, the button 1 drives the lever 3 to rotate, the lever 3 triggers the thermosensitive magnetic device 5 to connect the circuit, and the kitchenware heats the food. When the food is heated to a certain temperature, the thermosensitive magnetic device 5 resets to disconnect the circuit, the thermosensitive magnetic device 5 pushes the lever 3 to rotate, and the lever 3 pushes the button 1 to move to the second state in the slide slot 24, so that the kitchenware can automatically control the heating temperature, which is convenient to use.

[0045] The technical features of the above-described embodiments may be arbitrarily combined. To make the description concise, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above-described embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.
