A rotatable knob 300 is provided in the middle of the fixed assembly, and a driving gear 500 and a driven connecting rod 600 are provided on the fixed assembly, and an internal tooth 610 is provided on the driven connecting rod 600 to mesh with the driving gear 500, and the swing axis of the driven connecting rod 600 deviates from the rotation axis of the driving gear 500, and the driven connecting rod 600 has a driving position connected to the lock cover 200, and the internal tooth 610 is located between the swing axis and the driving position, and the knob 300 is connected to the driving gear 500. The knob 300 drives the driving gear 500, and the driving gear 500 drives the driven connecting rod 600 to swing around the swing axis, and the driven connecting rod 600 further drives the lock cover 200 to rotate. The rotation center of the inner teeth 610 is the swing axis of the driven connecting rod 600. The rotation radius of the inner teeth 610 is greater than the rotation radius of the driving gear 500. The driving gear 500 is transmitted to the driven connecting rod 600, so as to achieve the first level of labor saving. Since the swing axis of the driven connecting rod 600 deviates from the rotation axis of the driving gear 500, and the rotation axis of the driving gear 500 is concentric with the rotation center of the knob 300 and the lock cover 200, after the power is transmitted from the driving gear 500 to the inner teeth 610 on the driven connecting rod 600, the distance from the inner teeth 610 to the swing axis of the driven connecting rod 600 is the power arm, which effectively increases the power arm, achieves the second level of labor saving, and achieves the purpose of labor-saving cover opening with fewer transmission accessories. In this embodiment, the rotation diameter of the driving gear 500 is 25.5 mm, and the rotation diameter of the inner teeth 610 is 102 mm.

[0034] like Figure 2 , 4 As shown, the fixing assembly includes a cover 400 and end bottom covers 410 located at both ends of the cover 400, the end bottom covers 410 are provided with positioning holes 411, the pot body 100 is provided with side ears 110, the side ears 110 are provided with positioning blocks 111, and the positioning blocks 111 are embedded in the positioning holes.

The fixing assembly is positioned on the pot body 100 and will not rotate relative to the pot body 100, ensuring that the entire pot cover will not rotate when the knob 300 is turned.

[0035] like Figure 2-6 As shown, a central axis 210 is fixedly arranged at the center of the lock cover 200, and the lower end of the central axis 210 is a threaded column, which is locked on the lock cover 200 by a nut. The central axis 210 is rotatably penetrated on the fixed component. In this way, the lock cover 200 can rotate relative to the fixed component. The lock cover 200 is provided with a guide column 220, and the upper end of the guide column 220 has a limit cap 221 with an increased outer diameter, and the end bottom cover 410 is provided with a guide groove 412, the guide groove 412 is arc-shaped, and one end of the guide groove 412 is provided with a mounting opening 413 for the limit cap 221 to pass through, and the diameter of the limit cap 221 is greater than the width of the guide groove 412. The cooperation between the guide column 220 and the guide groove 412 plays an auxiliary guiding role in the rotation of the lock cover 200, and can also assist in bearing the weight of the lock cover 200.

[0036] like Figure 2 , 3 As shown in FIGS. 7 and 10, the knob 300 is provided with a positioning installation groove 313, and an elastic member 314 and a positioning member 315 are provided in the positioning installation groove 313. The fixing assembly is provided with a middle installation groove 440, and the knob 300 is installed in the middle installation groove 440. The bottom wall of the middle installation groove 440 has a cover closing groove 441 and a cover opening groove 442. When the positioning member 315 is located in the cover closing groove 441, the lock cover 200 is locked with the pot body 100, and when the positioning member 315 is located in the cover opening groove 442, the lock cover 200 is unlocked with the pot body 100. The cover closing groove 441 and the cover opening groove 442 provide the user with a clear reminder of the opening and closing position of the cover. The elastic member 314 is a spring, and the positioning member 315 is a steel column. In other optional embodiments, the elastic member 314 can also be a silicone member, and the positioning member 315 can also be a column with a spherical lower end.

[0037] Further, such as Fig.10 As shown, the bottom wall of the middle mounting groove 440 is provided with a concave-convex strip 443 between the cover closing groove 441 and the cover opening groove 442, so as to provide a damping feel for the rotation process of the knob 300 and form a clear rotation feedback.

[0038] like Figure 6 , 7As shown in Figures 13, the driving gear 500 is directly fixed to the knob 300 by at least two fixing bolts 330, the central axis 210 passes through the rotation center of the driving gear 500, and the fixing assembly is provided with an arc-shaped limiting hole 421, and the fixing bolt 330 penetrates the arc-shaped limiting hole 421. The fixing assembly includes a middle bottom cover 420 fixed to the face cover 400, the driving gear 500 and the driven connecting rod 600 are both located between the face cover 400 and the middle bottom cover 420, and the arc-shaped limiting hole 421 is located on the face cover 400. The arc-shaped limiting hole 421 limits the moving range of the fixing bolt 330, thereby limiting the rotation angle of the knob 300 and the lock cover 200 to avoid excessive rotation. In other optional embodiments, the arc-shaped limiting hole 421 may not be provided.

[0039] like Figure 2 , 4 -9, 12, the fixing assembly is provided with a connecting rod shaft 450, and the connecting rod shaft 450 is specifically located on the face cover 400. The driven connecting rod 600 is provided with a rotating shaft hole 620 to cooperate with the connecting rod shaft 450, and the central axis 210 line of the rotating shaft hole 620 and the connecting rod shaft 450 is the swing axis of the driven connecting rod 600. The locking cover 200 is provided with a toggle shaft 230, and the driving position of the driven connecting rod 600 is provided with a toggle hole 630 to cooperate with the toggle shaft 230, and the toggle hole 630 is a bar-shaped hole. Since the driven connecting rod 600 and the locking cover 200 do not rotate concentrically, the toggle hole 630 is a bar-shaped hole so that the toggle shaft 230 can be appropriately shifted in the toggle hole 630, ensuring that the driven connecting rod 600 and the locking cover 200 can rotate synchronously. The middle bottom cover 420 has an arc-shaped hole 422 , and the shifting shaft 230 passes through the arc-shaped hole 422 . The arc-shaped hole 422 allows the shifting shaft 230 to have a movable space.

[0040] like Figure 6 As shown, the face cover 400 is provided with a plurality of fixing columns 460 distributed on both sides of the driven connecting rod 600. In this embodiment, there are four fixing columns 460, which are used to fix the middle bottom cover 420. The middle bottom cover 420 is fixed to the face cover 400 by screws fixed on the fixing columns 460. The fixing columns 460 located on the same side of the driven connecting rod 600 are connected by connecting ribs 470. The driven connecting rod 600 includes a sector and a driving portion. The driving portion is raised relative to the outer arc edge of the sector. The driving position is located on the driving portion. The connecting ribs 470 extend toward the driving portion to limit the swing angle of the driven connecting rod 600. The connecting ribs 470 can strengthen the structure of the fixing columns 460 and also limit the swing angle of the driven connecting rod 600, so that the rotation angle of the lock cover 200 is jointly limited by multiple structures to improve reliability.

[0041] like Fig.12As shown, the fan-shaped portion has a fan-shaped hole, the driving gear 500 is in the fan-shaped hole, and the inner teeth 610 are located on the outer arc edge of the fan-shaped hole. In other optional embodiments, the position of the inner teeth 610 can also be higher than the fan-shaped hole. In this case, the driving gear 500 does not need to be embedded in the fan-shaped hole, and the fan-shaped hole can also be replaced by an arc-shaped hole.

[0042] like Figure 2 As shown, the knob 300 includes a connecting portion 310 and a gripping portion 320, the outer side of the connecting portion 310 has a vertically extending positioning groove 311, the connecting portion 310 has a yielding groove 312 with an opening facing upward, the gripping portion 320 includes a connecting ring 321 and a handle 322 spanning the connecting ring 321, the inner side of the connecting ring 321 is provided with a positioning rib 323 embedded in the positioning groove 311, and the upper end of the cover 400 is provided with a limiting ring 430, the inner side of the limiting ring 430 extends toward the center to the top of the knob 300. During operation, the hand is held on the handle 322 to rotate the knob 300, and the yielding groove 312 provides a yielding space for the hand to hold, so as to facilitate the hand to apply force. During installation, the connecting portion 310 and the holding portion 320 are assembled and inserted into the middle installation groove 440 together. The limiting ring 430 can prevent the knob 300 from being separated from the middle installation groove 440 .
