[0007] The cover assembly provided by the utility model is used for a cooking utensil, and the cooking utensil includes a pot body, and the cover assembly can be covered on the pot body. A locking component is also provided in the cover assembly, and the locking component is connected to the cover body, and can move relative to the cover body, and can cooperate with the pot body to seal the pot body. When the cooking utensil is working, the internal gas is heated, and the air pressure of the internal environment increases accordingly. The locking component, the exhaust component and the pot body cooperate to improve the airtightness of the pot body, so that there is a certain pressure in the pot body, which can improve the cooking effect of the cooking utensil on food. At the same time, the locking component of the pot body can improve the safety of the cooking utensil when working. At the same time, the locking component is connected to the cover body, and can rotate relative to the cover body, which is convenient for the opening and closing of the cooking utensil. An exhaust component is provided on the cover assembly. Since the first side of the exhaust component faces the pot body and can be connected to the pot body, when the cooking utensil is working, the exhaust component can exhaust the pot body, and then the air pressure of the pot body of the cooking utensil can be adjusted to improve the cooking effect of the cooking utensil. At the same time, a valve body is arranged in the cover assembly, and the valve body cover is arranged on the second side of the exhaust component to open or close the exhaust component.

A locking component 120 is also provided in the cover assembly 100. The locking component 120 is connected to the cover body 110 and can move relative to the cover body 110, and can cooperate with the pot body 200 to seal the pot body 200. When the cooking utensil 300 is working, the internal gas is heated and the air pressure of the internal environment increases accordingly. The locking component 120, the exhaust component 130 and the pot body 200 cooperate to improve the airtightness of the pot body 200, so that there is a certain pressure in the pot body 200, which can improve the cooking effect of the cooking utensil 300 on food. At the same time, the locking of the pot body 200 by the locking component 120 can improve the safety of the cooking utensil 300 when it is working. At the same time, the locking component 120 is connected to the cover body 110 and can rotate relative to the cover body 110, which is convenient for opening and closing the cooking utensil 300. The cover assembly 100 is provided with an exhaust component 130. Since the first side of the exhaust component 130 faces the pot body 200 and can be connected with the pot body 200, when the cooking utensil 300 is working, the exhaust component 130 can exhaust the pot body 200, and then the air pressure of the pot body 200 of the cooking utensil 300 can be adjusted to improve the cooking effect of the cooking utensil 300. At the same time, the cover assembly 100 is provided with a valve body 140, and the valve body 140 is covered on the second side of the exhaust component 130 to open or close the exhaust component 130.
