[0022] A hidden handle pressure cooker, please refer to Figures 1-3 , including a pot lid 100 and a pot body 200. The pot lid 100 is rotatably connected and installed on the pot body 200 to enable the normal use of the pressure cooker. The pot lid 100 is provided with a fixing groove 110, and the fixing groove 110 is integrally formed on the shell of the pot lid 100. The fixing groove 110 is a concave structure. A handle 120 can be provided in the fixing groove 110. The handle 120 matches the shape of the fixing groove 110. The fixing groove 110 is provided with a rotating shaft 111, and the handle 120 is connected to the rotating shaft 111 to be rotatably opened and closed and fixed on the pot lid 100. The handle 120 is rotatably opened and closed and connected to the pot lid 100. The handle 120 can be closed and embedded in the fixing groove 110 to be hidden in the pot lid 100; the pot lid 100 is provided with an exhaust hole 130 and an exhaust assembly capable of controlling exhaust. The exhaust assembly includes a valve seat 330 provided at the exhaust hole 130, a weight 310 pressing on the valve seat 330, and a lever 320 connecting the weight 310. One end of the handle 120 close to the lever 320 is provided with a convex plate 121 capable of pushing the lever 320. When the handle 120 is opened, the lever 320 is pushed through the convex plate 121. When the handle 120 is turned up, the lever 320 is pushed to realize exhaust, which is convenient for the user to open the pot lid 100 after exhausting the pressure cooker.

[0023] Furthermore, the weight 310 is made of metal and has a certain weight. The valve seat 330 is disposed in the exhaust hole 130 and penetrates through the upper and lower parts of the pot lid 100. The gas in the pot body 200 can be discharged through the valve seat 330. When the lever 320 is in the initial position, the weight 310 presses on the valve seat 330 to prevent the steam from being discharged. Usually, a safety valve for use in conjunction with the exhaust assembly is also provided on the pot lid 100. An exhaust push rod 340 is provided on the side of the lever 320 close to the handle 120. The convex plate 121 on the handle 120 is integrally formed on the handle 120. The convex plate 121 extends horizontally outward at one end of the handle 120 close to the exhaust assembly. When the handle 120 is turned up around the rotating shaft 111, the convex plate 121 contacts the exhaust push rod 340 and presses it down in cooperation with the side surface perpendicular to the handle 120, thereby pushing the lever 320. One end of the lever 320 close to the weight 310 extends towards the bottom of the weight 310. After the lever 340 is pushed by the handle 120, the weight 310 is pried upward, enabling the valve seat 330 to exhaust smoothly. This can ensure that the pressure cooker exhausts while the user turns up the handle 120, and then the pot lid 100 is opened by holding the handle 120, ensuring the safety of using the pressure cooker and improving convenience.

[0024] Furthermore, a lever connecting plate 150 is provided inside the pot lid 100. The lever connecting plate 150 extends downward from the top inside the pot lid housing. The lever connecting plate 150 includes two plates. A connecting shaft 151 is provided on the lever connecting plate 150. The connecting shaft 151 passes through the two plates and a matching connecting member is provided on the lever 320. The lever 320 moves with the connecting shaft 151 as the fulcrum. When the handle 120 is opened, the exhaust push rod 340 is pressed down to pry up the weight 310 by the lever 320 to achieve exhaust. When the handle 120 is closed, the weight 310 presses down to block the valve seat 330 and presses down the lever 320 to reset the lever 320. The pot lid 100 is provided with an exhaust groove 160. The exhaust hole 130 is provided on the exhaust groove 160. The weight 310 is also fixed on the exhaust groove 130 and presses on the valve seat 330. An opening is provided at a position on the exhaust groove 160 close to the lever 320. The lever 320 extends through the opening towards the bottom of the weight 310 in the exhaust groove 160. The pot lid 100 is provided with an exhaust cover 170 that can cover the exhaust groove 160. The exhaust cover 170 covering the exhaust groove 160 can prevent the steam from directly discharging outward from the position of the exhaust groove 160 when exhausting at high pressure, preventing the steam from scalding the user. Moreover, the exhaust cover 170 covering the exhaust groove 160 makes the surface of the pot lid 100 neither bulge nor dent, making it more beautiful. When the exhaust assembly exhausts, the steam is discharged into the exhaust groove 160 to form condensed water, which is collected in the exhaust groove 160 to prevent the condensed water from flowing to the outside of the pot body 200 or the pot lid 100 and polluting the surrounding environment.

[0025] Furthermore, two torsion springs 122 are sleeved on the rotating shaft 111. However, the number of torsion springs 122 is not limited to this embodiment. One of the spring arms of the torsion spring 122 contacts the handle 120, specifically the top surface inside the handle 120, and the other spring arm contacts the surface of the fixing groove 110. The elastic action of the torsion spring 122 gives the handle a thrust to keep it turned up, enabling the handle 120 to remain in the open state and better push the lever 320. A limiting convex body 112 protruding upward is provided in the fixing groove 110. When the handle 120 is turned to a certain angle, a clamping position is formed between the end of the handle 120 close to the limiting convex body 112 and the limiting convex body 112. A catch 180 for locking the handle 120 in the fixing groove 110 is provided in the fixing groove 110. When the handle 120 is closed, the catch 180 catches the handle 120 to fix it in the fixing groove 110. Generally, the handle 120 is also provided with a button linked to the catch 180, and the user can unlock the handle 120 by pressing the button. The limiting convex body 113 restricts the excessive rotation of the handle 120 to ensure that the handle 120 maintains a certain angle when it is turned over. When the handle 120 is unlocked, it automatically turns up under the action of the torsion spring 121 until a clamping position is formed with the limiting convex body 113 and then stops. Each time it bounces up and turns over, it maintains a consistent angle. When the handle 120 is disengaged from the catch 180, it will automatically turn up upward and push the lever 320, enabling the pressure cooker to achieve automatic exhaust.
