[0039] Please refer to Figures 1 to 5, an embodiment of the present utility model provides a pot lid assembly 100. The pot lid assembly 100 is used for a cooking device 1000, the cooking device 1000 includes a pot body 200, and the pot lid assembly 100 includes a pot lid 10, a clamp 30, a movable member 50, and a connecting rod 70. The pot lid 10 is used to cover the pot body 200, and the clamp 30 is rotatably connected to the pot lid 10. The movable member 50 is movably connected to the pot lid 10, and the connecting rod 70 is rotatably connected to the clamp 30 and the movable member 50. The pot lid assembly 100 is configured such that when the movable member 50 moves, it drives the connecting rod 70 to move, causing the clamp 30 to rotate around the connection point 90 formed between the clamp 30 and the pot lid 10.

[0040] For the above pot lid assembly 100, the connecting rod 70 connects the movable member 50 and the clamp 30, so that the connecting rod 70 can pull the clamp 30 to rotate around the connection point 90 formed between the clamp 30 and the pot lid 10 when the movable member 50 moves, to open or lock the lid of the cooking device 1000. There is no need to move both ends of the clamp 30 away from the pot body 200 and the pot lid 10 when opening the lid, thereby reducing the occupied space of the cooking device 1000 and improving the user experience.

[0041] Specifically, in one embodiment, as Figures 1 to 3 shown, the clamp 30 is U-shaped and placed horizontally, and can be used to clamp or unclamp the outer peripheries of the pot lid 10 and the pot body 200 to ensure normal lid locking and opening of the cooking device 1000, with safety and stability.

[0042] It can be understood that the clamp 30 can form a clamping groove (not shown in the figure), and the depth of the clamping groove matches the total thickness of the outer peripheries of the pot lid 10 and the pot body 200. For example, Figure 3 the up and down directions in

[0043] represent the depth direction and the thickness direction, thereby ensuring stable connection between the pot lid 10 and the pot body 200. Figure 1 shown, the clamp 30 is rotatably connected to the pot lid 10. It can be understood that one end of the clamp 30 can be connected to the pot lid 10 at the connection point 90, so that the end of the clamp 30 connected to the connecting rod 70 can rotate around the connection point 90, thereby ensuring that the clamp 30 is rotatably connected to the pot lid 10 and further ensuring normal lid opening or locking of the cooking device 100.

[0044] It can be understood that during the process of opening the lid of the cooking device 100, the end of the clamp 30 located at the connection 90 does not leave the lid 10, that is, the end of the clamp 30 located at the connection 90 does not move in a direction away from the center of the lid 10, saving occupied space. In addition, the end of the clamp 30 away from the connection 90 and the connecting rod 70 move in a direction away from the center of the lid 10 at the same time, causing the clamp 30 to rotate around the connection 90 to ensure the normal opening of the lid of the cooking device 100. The lid-locking process of the cooking device 100 is opposite to the lid-opening process, and the principle is the same, so it will not be elaborated here.

[0045] For example, in one example, the cooking device 100 further includes a rivet 92 located at the connection 90, so that the clamp 30 and the lid 10 are riveted and connected. In other embodiments, other connecting members may also be provided at the connection 90, and the connection method at the connection 90 includes but is not limited to the riveting method to ensure that the clamp 30 is rotatably connected to the lid 10, and no specific limitation is made here.

[0046] In one embodiment, as Figure 2 shown, the movable member 50 is connected to the clamp 30 through the connecting rod 70, and the movable member 50 is movably connected to the lid 10, so that the movable member 50 can drive the clamp 30 to rotate through the connecting rod 70, thereby ensuring that the clamp 30 clamps and connects the lid 10 and the pot body 200, or ensuring that the clamp 30 releases the clamping of the lid 10 and the pot body 200 (as Figure 4 and Figure 5 shown), and further ensuring the normal operation of the cooking device 1000.

[0047] In one embodiment, the connecting rod 70 is connected to the clamp 30. It can be understood that the connecting rod 70 can be connected to the end of the clamp 30 away from the connection 90, or can be connected to the middle position of the clamp 30, or can also be connected to other positions of the clamp 30 different from the connection 90 to ensure the normal rotation and opening and closing of the clamp 30, and no specific limitation is made here.

[0048] Preferably, the connecting rod 70 is connected to the end of the clamp 30 away from the connection 90, so that the force arm of the rotation of the clamp 30 is longer, which can effectively improve the flexibility of the rotation of the clamp 30, thereby ensuring the efficient opening or locking of the lid of the cooking device 1000, which is practical and labor-saving.

[0049] In one embodiment, please refer to Figure 2 , Figure 6 and Figure 7 . The movable member 50 can move in a rotational manner, or can move in a translational manner, or can also move in other ways to drive the clamp 30 to rotate through the connecting rod 70, so that the cooking device 1000 realizes the process of opening or locking the lid, and no specific limitation is made here.

[0050] In one embodiment, the movable member 50 can be a turntable, a slider, or other movable members, and no specific limitation is made here.

[0051] In one embodiment, the pot lid assembly 100 is configured such that when the movable member 50 moves, it drives the connecting rod 70 to move, causing the clamp 30 to rotate around the connection point 90 formed between the clamp 30 and the pot lid 10. It can be understood that, as Figure 2 and Figure 6 shown, when the movable member 50 rotates counterclockwise, the connecting rod 70 moves towards the center of the pot lid 10, and pulls the end of the clamp 30 away from the connection point 90 towards the center of the pot lid 10, causing the clamp 30 to rotate to the position where it clamps the outer peripheral edges of the pot lid 10 and the pot body 200, thereby ensuring that the cooking device 1000 locks the lid stably.

[0052] When the movable member 50 rotates clockwise, the connecting rod 70 moves away from the center of the pot lid 10, and pushes the end of the clamp 30 away from the connection point 90 towards the direction away from the center of the pot lid 10, causing the lower edge of the clamp 30 to rotate to a position where it disengages from the outer peripheral edge of the pot body 200 (as Figure 4 and Figure 5 shown), thereby ensuring that the pot lid 10 and the pot body 200 can be separated from each other, that is, the cooking device 1000 can be opened normally. At this time, the unfolded volume of the cooking device 1000 is smaller, and the occupied space can be effectively saved.

[0053] In another embodiment, as Figure 7 shown, when the movable member 50 moves towards the center of the pot lid 10, the connecting rod 70 moves towards the center of the pot lid 10, and pulls the end of the clamp 30 away from the connection point 90 to clamp the outer peripheral edges of the pot lid 10 and the pot body 200, thereby ensuring that the cooking device 1000 locks the lid stably.

[0054] When the movable member 50 moves away from the center of the pot lid 10, the connecting rod 70 moves away from the center of the pot lid 10, and pushes the end of the clamp 30 away from the connection point 90 to release the clamping of the pot lid 10 and the pot body 200, thereby ensuring that the cooking device 1000 can be opened normally and the occupied space is small.

[0055] In one embodiment, as Figures 1 to 3 shown, the number of the clamps 30 can be two to ensure the overall stable connection of the cooking device 1000, thereby improving the safety of the cooking device 1000.

[0056] In other embodiments, the number of the clamps 30 can also be other numbers, as long as the pot lid 10 and the pot body 200 are stably connected, and no specific limitation is made here.

[0057] Accordingly, the number of link rods 70 can match the number of clamps 30, or two or more link rods 70 can be provided on each clamp 30 to ensure that the clamp 30 is rotatably connected to the cooking device 1000, thereby ensuring that the cooking device 1000 can open or lock the lid flexibly. There is no specific limitation here.

[0058] When the number of clamps 30 is two, as Figure 2 and Figure 4 shown, the two clamps 30 are arranged in central symmetry both when the cooking device 1000 is in the lid-locked state and the lid-open state, which is beautiful and practical.

[0059] In addition, one end of each clamp 30 is connected through a connection part 90, and the other end is connected through a link rod 70, that is, both ends of the clamp 30 are correspondingly connected, so that the clamp 30 will not pop out and hurt people in extreme cases such as when the pot explodes. Compared with a clamp-type pressure cooker with only one clamp arm, it has a high pressure-bearing capacity, good safety and stability.

[0060] In one embodiment, the cooking device 1000 can be a clamp-type pressure cooker, such as a round pot, an oval pot or a square pot, or can be other electrical devices to ensure the safe operation of the cooking device 1000. There is no specific limitation here.

[0061] Accordingly, the clamp 30 can be an arc-shaped clamping plate (as Figure 1 and Figure 2 shown), or can be a straight-line clamping plate or a broken-line clamping plate (not shown in the figure), such as an L-shaped clamping plate, or can be a clamping plate of other shapes to match the outer peripheral shapes of the pot body 200 and the pot lid 10, so as to ensure that the clamp 30 is stably clamped on the outer peripheral edges of the pot body 200 and the pot lid 10, and further ensure the stability of the cooking device 1000. There is no specific limitation here.

[0062] Please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 6 , in some embodiments, the moving part 50 includes a rotating part (not shown in the figure). When the rotating part rotates, it drives the link rod 70 to move, so that the clamp 30 rotates around the connection part 90 formed by the clamp 30 and the pot lid 10.

[0063] In this way, the moving part 50 indirectly drives the clamp 30 to move by a rotating manner, so as to ensure the normal lid-opening process or lid-locking process of the cooking device 100.

[0064] Specifically, in one embodiment, as Figure 2 and Figure 6As shown, the rotating member can be arranged at the center position of the pot lid 10, and the rotating member is rotatably connected to the pot lid 10, so that the rotating member can drive the connecting rod 70 to move towards the direction close to the center of the pot lid 10 in a counterclockwise rotation, so as to ensure that the clamp 30 clamps and connects the pot lid 10 and the pot body 200. In addition, the rotating member can also drive the connecting rod 70 to move away from the center of the pot lid 10 in a clockwise rotation, so as to ensure that the clamp 30 releases the clamping connection between the pot lid 10 and the pot body 200.

[0065] It can be understood that when the rotating member rotates in the counterclockwise direction, the connecting rod 70 pulls the clamp 30 towards the direction close to the center of the pot lid 10, so that one end of the clamp 30 connected to the connecting rod 70 rotates towards the direction close to the center of the pot lid 10 around the connection point 90, thereby ensuring the normal lid locking of the cooking device 1000, which is safe, practical and occupies a small space.

[0066] When the rotating member rotates in the clockwise direction, the connecting rod 70 pushes the clamp 30 away from the center of the pot lid 10, so that one end of the clamp 30 connected to the connecting rod 70 rotates away from the center of the pot lid 10 around the connection point 90, thereby ensuring the normal lid opening of the cooking device 1000, which is safe, practical and occupies a small space.

[0067] In other embodiments, the rotating member can also be arranged at other positions of the pot lid 10, as long as it is ensured that the clamp 30 rotates to open or lock the lid, and no specific limitation is made here.

[0068] Please refer to Figure 2 , in some embodiments, the rotating member includes a turntable 52, and the connecting rod 70 is rotatably connected to the turntable 52.

[0069] In this way, it is ensured that the connecting rod 70 moves flexibly, so that the connecting rod 70 drives the clamp 30 to rotate normally, and the practicability is good.

[0070] Specifically, in one embodiment, as Figure 2 shown, the rotating member includes a turntable 52, and one end of the turntable 52 is connected to the connecting rod 70, ensuring that the turntable 52 pushes or pulls the connecting rod 70 when rotating, so as to drive the other end of the connecting rod 70 to drive the clamp 30 to move, thereby realizing the lid opening or lid locking of the cooking device 1000.

[0071] It can be understood that in one example, as Figure 2 shown, the turntable 52 can be cylindrical and provided with a connection hole (not shown in the figure), so that the connection hole connects one end of the connecting rod 70. When the turntable 52 rotates, the connecting rod 70 moves synchronously, thereby realizing the movement of the clamp 30 and the lid opening or lid locking of the cooking device 1000, and the practicability is good.

[0072] In addition, a float hole (not shown) may be formed on the turntable 52, which can be used to lock the turntable 52 when the cooking device 1000 is in operation, so that the turntable 52 cannot be rotated to open the cover, thereby ensuring safe cooking for the user.

[0073] See also Figure 6 In some embodiments, the rotating member includes a gear 54, and a tooth portion 72 is provided on the connecting rod 70. The gear 54 meshes with the tooth portion 72. When the gear 54 rotates, it drives the connecting rod 70 to move, so that the clamp 30 rotates around the connection 90 formed by the clamp 30 and the pot cover 10.

[0074] In this way, the connecting rod 70 is ensured to move flexibly, so that the connecting rod 70 pulls the clamp 30 to rotate normally, which has good practicality.

[0075] Specifically, in one embodiment, Figure 6 As shown, the rotating member includes a gear 54, and a tooth portion 72 is provided on the connecting rod 70, so that the gear 54 and the tooth portion 72 form a meshing connection, that is, the rotating member can drive the connecting rod 70 to move by rotating, thereby ensuring that the clamp 30 rotates around the connection 90, which is safe and practical.

[0076] In one embodiment, the tooth portion 72 is equivalent to a transmission chain, which can transmit the rotational power of the gear 54 to the clamp 30 through the connecting rod 72, so that the end of the connecting rod 70 connected to the clamp 30 pulls the clamp 30 to move, that is, the clamp 30 rotates around the connection 90 formed by the clamp 30 and the pot cover 10, thereby realizing the opening or locking of the cover of the cooking device 1000.

[0077] It is understandable that Figure 6 As shown, the gear 54 is in the shape of a toothed ring, so that the gear 54 is matched and connected with the tooth portion 72. When the gear 54 rotates, the connecting rod 70 moves synchronously, thereby realizing the movement of the clamp 30 and the opening or locking of the cover of the cooking device 1000, which is practical.

[0078] In addition, a float hole (not shown) may be formed on the gear 54, which can be used to lock the gear 54 when the cooking device 1000 is in operation, so that the gear 54 cannot rotate to open the cover, thereby ensuring safe cooking for the user.

[0079] It is worth noting that the gear 54 can be pre-set with a rotation limit, that is, the gear 54 can rotate within a certain angle range. For example, in one example, the rotation angle range of the gear 54 is [60°, 90°], or it can be other angle values, to ensure that the connecting rod 70 and the clamp 30 are stably located on the cooking device 1000, reduce the situation where the tooth portion 72 is separated from the gear 54, and thereby ensure that the cooking device 1000 can achieve cyclic opening or locking of the cover, and no specific restrictions are made here.

[0080] See alsoFigure 7 In some embodiments, the movable member 50 includes a sliding member 56 , and when the sliding member 56 slides, it drives the connecting rod 70 to move so that the clamp 30 rotates around the connection 90 formed by the clamp 30 and the pot cover 10 .

[0081] In this way, the movable member 50 indirectly drives the clamp 30 to move by translation, thereby ensuring the normal opening or locking process of the cooking device 100.

[0082] Specifically, in one embodiment, Figure 7 As shown, the sliding member 56 can be set in the middle area of ​​the pot cover 10, and the sliding member 56 and the pot cover 10 can be connected in a translational manner, so that the sliding member 56 can be translated toward the center of the pot cover 10 to drive the connecting rod 70 to move toward the center of the pot cover 10, thereby ensuring that the clamp 30 is clamped to connect the pot cover 10 and the pot body 200.

[0083] In addition, the sliding member 56 can also translate in a direction away from the center of the pot cover 10 to drive the connecting rod 70 to move in a direction away from the center of the pot cover 10, thereby ensuring that the clamp 30 is released from the clamping connection between the pot cover 10 and the pot body 200.

[0084] It can be understood that when the sliding member 56 translates toward the center of the pot cover 10, the connecting rod 70 pulls the clamp 30 toward the center of the pot cover 10, so that the end of the clamp 30 connected to the connecting rod 70 rotates around the connection 90 toward the center of the pot cover 10, thereby ensuring that the cooking device 1000 is normally locked, which is safe, practical and takes up little space.

[0085] When the sliding member 56 translates in a direction away from the center of the pot cover 10, the connecting rod 70 pushes the clamp 30 in a direction away from the center of the pot cover 10, so that the end of the clamp 30 connected to the connecting rod 70 rotates around the connection 90 in a direction away from the center of the pot cover 10, thereby ensuring that the cooking device 1000 can open the cover normally, which is safe, practical and takes up little space.

[0086] In other embodiments, the sliding member 56 may also be disposed at other positions of the pot cover 10 , as long as the clamp 30 is rotated to open or lock the cover, and no specific limitation is made herein.

[0087] In one embodiment, the sliding member 56 can form a groove (not shown), and the pot cover 10 can form a protrusion corresponding to the groove (not shown), so that the sliding member 56 and the pot cover 10 can indirectly pull the clamp 30 to move in a translational manner, thereby ensuring that the cooking device 1000 can open or lock the cover normally.

[0088] In other embodiments, the sliding member 56 and the pot cover 10 may also be translated in other ways to ensure that the cooking device 1000 is safely opened or locked, and no specific limitation is made here.

[0089] Please refer to Figure 6 and Figure 7 In some embodiments, a guide rail 12 is provided on the pot lid 10. The guide rail 12 is formed with a chute 14. The connecting rod 70 includes a first end 74 and a second end 76. The first end 74 is rotatably connected to the clamp 30, and the second end 76 is connected to the movable member 50. The portion of the connecting rod 70 between the first end 74 and the second end 76 is received in the chute 14.

[0090] In this way, it is ensured that the connecting rod 70 moves translationally along the chute 14, so that the movement track of the connecting rod 70 is clear and the safety is good.

[0091] Specifically, in one embodiment, as shown in Figure 6 and Figure 7 The guide rail 12 can be formed by arranging two columns at intervals, and a chute 14 is defined between the guide rails 12 to guide the connecting rod 70 to move linearly along the chute 14, thereby driving the clamp 30 to rotate so that the cooking device 1000 can open or lock the lid, and the safety is good.

[0092] In one embodiment, as shown in Figure 6 and Figure 7 The first end 74 is rotatably connected to the clamp 30, and the second end 76 is connected to the movable member 50, so that the portion of the connecting rod 70 between the first end 74 and the second end 76 moves along the chute 14. That is, when the movable member 50 moves, it can be ensured that the connecting rod 70 moves translationally in a straight line to pull the clamp 30 to rotate around the connection point 90 formed by the clamp 30 and the pot lid 10, thereby ensuring the safe opening or locking of the lid of the cooking device 1000.

[0093] It can be understood that by setting the guide rail 12 to limit the movement path of the connecting rod 70, the opening and locking efficiency of the clamp 30 can be improved, and at the same time, the connecting rod 70 can be prevented from falling off and contacting the movable member 50, and the safety is good.

[0094] In some embodiments, the pot lid assembly 100 includes an operating member 60. The operating member 60 is connected to the movable member 50. The pot lid assembly 100 is configured such that: when the operating member 60 is operated, it drives the movable member 50 to move.

[0095] In this way, the cooking device 1000 can open or lock the lid manually, and the operation is simple.

[0096] Specifically, in one embodiment, as shown in Figure 2 and Figure 6 The operating member 60 can be cylindrical, and the operating member 60 is connected to the movable member 50. When a user applies a force to the operating member 60, the operating member 60 drives the movable member 50 to rotate or translate synchronously (as shown in Figure 7), so as to drive the clamp 30 to rotate around the connection part 90 through the connecting rod 70, thereby ensuring that the cooking device 1000 can be normally opened or locked, which is simple and easy to operate.

[0097] In other embodiments, the operating member 60 may further be provided with a connecting portion (not shown in the figure), such that the connecting portion can be used to connect the movable member 50 to ensure the normal movement of the movable member 50, so that the cooking device 1000 can be opened or locked in a manual manner. No specific limitation is made herein.

[0098] In some embodiments, the pot lid assembly 100 includes a driving member (not shown in the figure), the driving member is connected to the movable member 50, and the pot lid assembly 100 is configured to: drive the movable member 50 to move when the driving member is powered on.

[0099] In this way, the cooking device 1000 can be opened or locked in an electronically controlled manner, which is convenient and efficient.

[0100] Specifically, in one embodiment, the driving member (not shown in the figure) may include a motor (not shown in the figure) and a transmission chain (not shown in the figure). Among them, the transmission chain connects the motor and the movable member 50. When the motor is powered on, the transmission chain drives the movable member 50 to move. For example, the movement mode of the movable member 50 includes but is not limited to rotation and translation. That is, the driving member drives the movable member 50 to move to drive the connecting rod 70 to drive the clamp 30 to rotate around the connection part 90, thereby ensuring that the cooking device 1000 can be normally opened or locked, with a high degree of automation and good convenience.

[0101] In other embodiments, the driving member may also be other objects, which can be used to connect the movable member 50 to ensure the normal movement of the movable member 50, so that the cooking device 1000 can be opened or locked in an electronically controlled manner. No specific limitation is made herein.

[0102] Please refer to Figure 1 , in some embodiments, the rotation axis L1 of the clamp 30 and the central axis L2 of the pot lid 10 form an angle B, and the angular range of the angle B is [0°, 20°].

[0103] In this way, the clamp 30 can rotate smoothly around the connection part 90, thereby ensuring that the cooking device 1000 can be normally opened or locked, with good safety.

[0104] Specifically, in one embodiment, as Figure 1 shown, a proper angle B should be formed between the rotation axis L1 of the clamp 30 and the central axis L2 of the pot lid 10 to ensure the smooth rotation of the clamp 30, so as to ensure the safe clamping connection between the pot lid 10 and the pot body 200.

[0105] In one embodiment, the angle range of the included angle B is [0°, 20°] to ensure the stable rotation of the clamp 30 and the safe accommodation of the outer peripheral edges of the pot lid 10 and the pot body 200, thereby ensuring the normal opening or locking of the cooking device 1000.

[0106] When the included angle B is greater than 20°, the connection part 90 is inclined to connect the clamp 30 and the pot lid 10, and the inclination angle of the connection part 90 is too large, making it easy for the clamp 30 to form frictional interference with the pot lid 10, resulting in difficult rotation of the clamp 30, and thus unable to ensure the normal opening or locking process of the cooking device 1000, and the clamping connection effect is not ideal.

[0107] Preferably, the included angle B is 0°, so that the rotation axis L1 of the clamp 30 is parallel to the central axis L2 of the pot lid 10, thereby ensuring the stable rotation of the clamp 30, and further ensuring the stable clamping connection between the pot lid 10 and the pot body 200 with good safety.

[0108] For example, in some examples, the included angle B can be 0°, 5°, 7°, 10°, 11°, 13°, 20° or other angular values between 0° and 20°, which are not specifically limited herein.

[0109] Please refer to Figure 8 and Figure 9 , in certain embodiments, the clamp 30 includes an upper plate 32, a connecting plate 34 and a lower plate 36. The connecting plate 34 connects the upper plate 32 and the lower plate 36. The upper plate 32 is rotatably connected to the pot lid 10, and the lower plate 36 is formed with a notch 362 below the connection part 90 formed between the clamp 30 and the pot lid 10.

[0110] In this way, there is no interference between the clamp 30 and the pot body 200 during opening, thereby ensuring the smooth opening of the cooking device 1000 with good practicability.

[0111] Specifically, in one embodiment, as Figure 8 and Figure 9 shown, the upper plate 32 is rotatably connected to the pot lid 10, which can ensure that one end of the clamp 30 away from the connection part 90 can rotate around the connection part 90 in a direction away from the center of the pot lid 10, thereby ensuring that the clamp 30 releases the clamping of the pot lid 10 and the pot body 200, and further ensuring the normal opening of the cooking device 1000.

[0112] In detail, in one embodiment, the lower plate 36 is formed with a notch 362 below the connection part 90 formed between the clamp 30 and the pot lid 10. It can be understood that, as Figure 8As shown, when the two clamps 30 release the lid 10 and the pot body 200 at the same time, the part of the clamp 30 below the connection 90 is provided with a hollow, for example, the lower plate 36 is hollowed out at the position corresponding to the connection 90, that is, the part of the clamp 30 below the connection 90 does not interfere with the lower part of the outer periphery of the pot body 200, so as to ensure that the lid 10 and the pot body 200 can be separated as a whole. At this time, the lid assembly 100 can be lifted upward as a whole to open the lid, which is safe and practical.

[0113] In another embodiment, the lower plate 36 is formed with a notch 362 below the connection 90 formed by the clamp 30 and the lid 10. It can be understood that, as Figure 9 shown, when the two clamps 30 release the lid 10 and the pot body 200 at the same time, the part of the clamp 30 below the connection 90 is provided with a hollow. For example, the lower plate 36 and the connecting plate 34 are hollowed out at the positions corresponding to the connection 90 at the same time, that is, the part of the clamp 30 below the connection 90 does not interfere with the lower part of the outer periphery of the pot body 200, so as to ensure that the lid 10 and the pot body 200 can be separated as a whole. At this time, the lid assembly 100 can be lifted upward as a whole to open the lid, which is safe and practical.

[0114] In yet another embodiment, the connection 90 can also be a bracket (not shown in the figure). One end of the bracket is connected to the lid 10, and the other end of the bracket is wound around and connected to the connecting plate 34 from the outside (not shown in the figure). At the same time, a notch 362 is formed at the position of the lower plate 36 corresponding to the connection 90 to ensure that the clamp 30 does not conflict with the pot body 200 when opening the lid, so as to ensure that the cooking device 1000 can be opened normally, which is safe and practical.

[0115] In other embodiments, the connection 90 can also be connected to other positions of the lid 10 and the clamp 30, and a notch 362 is correspondingly provided to ensure that the cooking device 1000 can be opened normally and prevent the clamp 30 from conflicting with the pot body 200 when opening the lid. No specific limitation is made here.

[0116] Please refer to Figure 2 、 Figure 6 and Figure 7 This embodiment of the present invention provides a cooking device 1000. The cooking device 1000 includes the lid assembly 100 of any of the above embodiments.

[0117] The above-mentioned lid assembly 100 is connected to the movable member 50 and the clamp 30 through the connecting rod 70, so that when the movable member 50 moves, the connecting rod 70 can pull the clamp 30 to rotate around the connection point 90 formed by the clamp 30 and the lid 10 to open or lock the lid of the cooking device 1000. There is no need to move both ends of the clamp 30 away from the pot body 200 and the lid 10 when opening the lid, thereby reducing the occupied space of the cooking device 1000 and improving the user experience.

[0118] Specifically, in one embodiment, the cooking device 1000 includes, but is not limited to, devices such as rice cookers, pressure cookers, food processors, or liquid heating processors.
