Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to a convenient cover for commercial soup pots and barrels, belonging to the technical field of catering equipment. Background Art

[0002] When the covers of soup pots and barrels in restaurants and canteens are opened for sale, the covers are placed elsewhere, occupying space and being easily contaminated. For convenience, after the sale is completed, the covers of the soup barrels and pots are generally not covered, and the soup and food are exposed to the air, which is very unhygienic. Content of the Utility Model

[0003] To solve the problem of unhygienic use of the covers of soup pots and barrels in restaurants and canteens, the utility model provides a convenient cover for commercial soup pots and barrels. It is very convenient to open and close the cover, and there is no need for additional space to place the cover. It can well protect the soup and food in the soup pot and barrel from being contaminated by surrounding splashes and dust. To achieve the above purpose, the technical solution adopted by the utility model is as follows:

[0004] A convenient cover for commercial soup pots and barrels at least includes an inner spherical surface and an outer spherical surface. It is characterized in that: the diameter of the outer spherical surface is slightly larger than that of the inner spherical surface. Both the outer spherical surface and the inner spherical surface are parts of their entire spherical surfaces. The outer spherical surface and the inner spherical surface are combined together through shafts and shaft sleeves installed on both sides. The outer spherical surface and the inner spherical surface are concentric. The axis lines of the shafts and shaft sleeves pass through the centers of the outer spherical surface and the inner spherical surface. The outer spherical surface and the inner spherical surface rotate relative to the axis lines of the shafts and shaft sleeves. The diameter sizes of the outer spherical surface and the inner spherical surface correspond to the upper mouth diameter sizes of commercial pots and barrels. When the outer spherical surface and the inner spherical surface rotate to the overlapping state, it is the open cover state. When the outer spherical surface and the inner spherical surface rotate to the lapping state, it is the closed cover state.

[0005] A further improvement to the technical solution of the utility model is:

[0006] A cover edge is arranged at the lower edge of the inner spherical surface. The cover edge is of an annular structure, and the diameter size of the cover edge corresponds to the diameter size of the lower edge of the inner spherical surface.

[0007] An anti-pollution edge is arranged on the upper surface of the inner edge of the inner spherical surface. The structural size of the anti-pollution edge corresponds to the inner edge of the inner spherical surface, and the height of the anti-pollution edge is less than the gap width between the inner spherical surface and the outer spherical surface.

[0008] A limiting edge is arranged on the inner surface of the front edge of the outer spherical surface. The structural size of the limiting edge corresponds to the front edge of the outer spherical surface, and the height of the limiting edge is less than the gap width between the inner spherical surface and the outer spherical surface.

[0009] A handle is arranged on the outer surface of the outer spherical surface.

[0010] A soup spoon handle opening is arranged at the rear edge of the outer spherical surface.

[0011] The material of the convenient lid for commercial pots and buckets is stainless steel.

[0012] The material of the convenient lid for commercial pots and buckets is food-grade 304 stainless steel.

[0013] As can be seen from the technical solution and improvement solution of the present utility model, the convenient lid of the commercial soup pot (bucket) is placed above the upper opening of the soup bucket and soup pot. When using the soup, a person holds the handle on the outer spherical surface and pushes the outer spherical surface to rotate outward. After rotating in place, the upper opening of the soup pot (bucket) is exposed, and a spoon is inserted into the soup pot (bucket) to scoop the soup. After using the soup, a person holds the handle on the outer spherical surface and pushes the outer spherical surface to rotate inward. After rotating in place, the upper opening of the soup pot (bucket) is completely covered by the inner spherical surface and the outer spherical surface. The opening and closing of the convenient lid of the commercial soup pot and bucket are very convenient. The lid is opened when using the soup and closed in time after using the soup, which well protects the soup and food in the soup pot and bucket from being polluted by dust and splashes in the air; there is no need for additional space and brackets to place the lid when opening the lid, and the front half of the upper opening of the commercial pot and bucket is still blocked by the spherical surface, preventing splashes in the front from entering the commercial pot and bucket, ensuring food hygiene.

[0026] The improvement scheme of the present utility model will be further described below in conjunction with the drawings and embodiments:

[0027] This embodiment is a convenient lid for the soup - cooking bucket. As Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 shown, this embodiment is mainly composed of an inner spherical surface 2, an outer spherical surface 1, a rotating shaft 3, and a bush 4. All components of the convenient lid of the soup - cooking bucket are made of 304 stainless steel. The thickness of the inner spherical surface 2 and the outer spherical surface 1 is 0.7 mm. As Figure 6 , Figure 7 shown, the outer diameter of the rotating shaft 3 corresponds to the inner diameter of the bush 4 (the outer diameter of the rotating shaft 3 is 10 mm, and the inner diameter of the bush 4 is 11 mm). As Figure 2 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 shown, the radius (outer diameter) of the inner spherical surface 2 is 190 mm, and the radius (outer diameter) of the outer spherical surface 1 is 200 mm. Rotating shafts 3 are respectively arranged on both sides of the inner spherical surface 2. The axis lines of the two rotating shafts 3 coincide and pass through the center of the inner spherical surface 2. Bushs 4 are respectively arranged on both sides of the outer spherical surface 1. The axis lines of the two bushs 4 coincide and pass through the center of the outer spherical surface 1. As Figure 1 , Figure 3 shown, the rotating shafts 3 on both sides of the inner spherical surface 2 are respectively inserted into the bushs 4 on both sides of the outer spherical surface 1 and combined together. The gap between the outer spherical surface 1 and the inner spherical surface 2 is about 9 mm. The outer spherical surface 1 can rotate flexibly around the inner spherical surface 2. A handle 8 is arranged on the outer surface of the outer spherical surface 1. When a person pushes and pulls the handle upward, the outer spherical surface 1 rotates upward and is stacked above the inner spherical surface 2, and the convenient lid of the soup - cooking bucket is opened. When a person pulls the handle downward, the outer spherical surface 1 rotates downward and overlaps with the inner side 11 of the inner spherical surface 2, and the convenient lid of the soup - cooking bucket is closed.

[0028] The structures of the outer spherical surface 1 and the inner spherical surface 2 of this embodiment are as Figure 4 , Figure 5As shown, the outer spherical surface 1 is vertically cut at a position 10 mm below the midline of its hemisphere, and the inner spherical surface 2 is vertically cut at a position 18 mm below the midline of its hemisphere. As Figure 2 , Figure 6 , Figure 7 As shown, the rotating shaft 3 and the shaft sleeve 4 are connected and fixed to the spherical surface through the connecting plate 9. A cover edge 5 is connected to the bottom edge of the inner spherical surface 2. The cover edge 5 is of a circular ring structure. The outer diameter of the circular ring is the same as the inner diameter of the bottom edge of the inner spherical surface 2, and the inner diameter of the circular ring corresponds to the outer diameter of the upper mouth of the soup pot, facilitating docking and installation with the upper mouth of the soup pot. As Figure 6 , Figure 7 , Figure 8 As shown, a waterproof edge 6 is provided on the upper surface of the inner edge 11 of the inner spherical surface 2. The height of the waterproof edge 6 is 7 mm (less than the gap of 9 mm between the outer spherical surface 1 and the inner spherical surface 2), and the thickness is 2 mm. A limiting edge 7 is provided below the front edge 13 of the outer spherical surface 1. The height of the limiting edge 7 is 7 mm (less than the gap of 9 mm between the outer spherical surface 1 and the inner spherical surface 2), and the thickness is 2 mm. When the soup pot is conveniently covered, when the outer spherical surface 1 rotates to the position where the limiting edge 7 and the waterproof edge 6 overlap, the rotation stops. The waterproof edge 6 and the limiting edge 7 make the outer spherical surface 1 and the inner spherical surface 2 seamlessly connected, which well prevents splashed objects and dust from entering the bucket. The walls of the outer spherical surface 1 and the inner spherical surface 2 are thin and easy to deform. The waterproof edge 6 and the limiting edge 7 also play a role in supporting the spherical surface and shaping. To ensure food hygiene and convenient and fast use, the soup ladle for scooping soup is placed in the soup pot and not in other positions. As Figure 2 , Figure 10 , Figure 11 As shown, a soup ladle handle opening 10 is provided on the rear edge 14 of the outer spherical surface 1. When the soup pot is conveniently covered, the handle of the soup ladle 11 is placed in the soup ladle handle opening 10, ensuring that the cover is in place.

[0029] The usage method and principle of the convenient cover of the soup pot in this embodiment: As Figure 10 , Figure 11 As shown, place the convenient cover of the soup pot on the upper mouth of the soup pot for cooking. When cooking the soup, pull the handle 8 on the outer spherical surface 1 downward with your hand to make the outer spherical surface 1 rotate downward. The handle of the soup ladle 11 is placed in the soup ladle handle opening 10, and the convenient cover of the soup pot is closed; when using the soup after the soup is cooked, push the handle 8 on the outer spherical surface 1 upward with your hand to make the outer spherical surface 1 rotate upward and stop above the inner spherical surface 2. The convenient cover of the soup pot is opened. Hold the soup ladle in your hand and scoop the soup into the bowl. Close the cover in time after using the soup.

[0030] The features of a convenient lid for a commercial soup pot and barrel of the present utility model are as follows: 1. It can be conveniently covered and uncovered at any time. 2. No additional space and bracket are required to place the lid when opening it. 3. It can be conveniently covered in a timely manner after using the soup. 4. When opening the lid to ladle out soup for sale, the front half of the upper opening of the commercial pot and barrel is still blocked by the spherical surface, preventing splashes from the front from entering the commercial pot and barrel. The above features greatly prevent the soup and food in the commercial pot and barrel from being contaminated and well guarantee food hygiene.
