Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of kitchen utensils, in particular to a folding pot handle. Background Art

[0002] A folding pot handle, also known as a pot grip or pot ear, is an indispensable part of the edge or side of a pot body. Its design aims to provide people with a stable and comfortable holding feeling, thus facilitating the operation of the pot. To ensure safety and convenience during the cooking process, these handles are usually made of materials that are heat-resistant, anti-slip, and wear-resistant, so as to withstand high temperatures without deformation, and at the same time prevent slipping or scalding.

[0003] However, the design of traditional folding pot handles often has some limitations. They are usually fixed to the edge or side of the pot body, which not only increases the overall volume of the pot, making it necessary for merchants to require more space when packing, increasing costs, but also a burden for household storage. In addition, the connection between some traditional folding pot handles and the pot body is not firm enough, and long-term use or improper operation may lead to loosening or even falling off, which undoubtedly increases the safety hazards during use. Although some more complex designs improve the safety and functionality of the pot, they also bring inconvenience to users and increase the complexity of user operation. Content of the Utility Model

[0004] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a folding pot handle to solve the problems raised in the above background art.

[0005] To achieve the above purpose, the utility model provides the following technical solution: It includes a hand-held handle. One side of the top of the hand-held handle is provided with an outer mounting shell one, and the side of the top of the hand-held handle away from the outer mounting shell one is provided with an outer mounting shell two. An installation seat is arranged between the outer mounting shell one and the outer mounting shell two, and a rotating component is arranged at the bottom of the installation seat.

[0006] Preferably, the rotating component includes a fixed shaft inserted through the bottom of the installation seat. A round hole is opened in the middle of the outer mounting shell one. One end of the fixed shaft passes through the outer mounting shell one and is provided with an inner mounting shell one through a bolt. The inner mounting shell one is located inside the outer mounting shell one. A pair of limiting blocks are symmetrically arranged on one side of the inner mounting shell one, and limiting grooves are opened at the positions corresponding to the limiting blocks in the outer mounting shell one.

[0007] Preferably, a round hole is opened in the middle of the outer mounting shell two. One end of the fixed shaft passes through the outer mounting shell two and is provided with a folding button. The folding button is located inside the outer mounting shell two. A spring is arranged at the bottom of the installation seat away from the outer mounting shell one. The spring is sleeved on the outside of the fixed shaft, and the end of the spring away from the installation seat is connected to the folding button.

[0008] Compared with the prior art, the above technical solution of the present utility model has the following beneficial technical effects:

[0009] 1. By providing a fixed shaft, the fixed shaft is combined with the inner mounting shell I and the folding button to connect the mounting seat and the hand-held handle, so that the mounting seat and the hand-held handle are firmly connected. The setting of the mounting seat also makes the pot and the folding pot handle firmly connected, enhancing the use safety.

[0010] 2. By providing a spring, when the user presses the folding button with a finger, when the external force starts to act on the spring, the shape of the spring begins to change, converting the external energy into the elastic potential energy of the spring. When the user releases the folding button, the elastic potential energy of the spring is released, causing the folding button to return to its original position, simplifying the operation steps and making it easy for the user to use.

[0011] 3. By providing a limit block, when the user does not press the folding button, the limit block is inserted into the limit groove, making the hand-held handle unable to rotate, facilitating the user to hold the folding pot handle with the hand to move the pot. When the user presses the folding button, the limit block exits the limit groove, enabling the user to conveniently flip the hand-held handle into the pot to complete the storage of the folding pot handle, saving packing materials during packing by merchants and also reducing the occupied kitchen space during home use.

[0017] To make the objectives, technical solutions and advantages of the present utility model clearer and more understandable, the present utility model will be further described in detail below in conjunction with the specific embodiments and with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that these descriptions are exemplary and are not intended to limit the scope of the present utility model. In addition, in the following description, the descriptions of well-known structures and technologies are omitted to avoid unnecessarily confusing the concepts of the present utility model.

[0018] As Figures 1 - 4 shown, the foldable pot handle proposed by the present utility model includes a hand-held handle 1, which is convenient for a user to hold with the hand. When the pot is cooking food or has just finished cooking, the pot is often very hot. The user can move the pot by holding the hand-held handle 1 to prevent being scalded. On one side of the top of the hand-held handle 1, there is an outer mounting shell 35. On the side of the top of the hand-held handle 1 away from the outer mounting shell 35, there is an outer mounting shell 36. Between the outer mounting shell 35 and the outer mounting shell 36, there is a mounting seat 2, which is used to connect the pot and the foldable pot handle. At the bottom of the mounting seat 2, there is a rotating assembly 3.

[0019] The rotating assembly 3 includes a fixed shaft 34 inserted through the bottom of the mounting seat 2. The fixed shaft 34 is the installation foundation of the inner mounting shell 31 and the folding button 38, and is used to connect the mounting seat 2 and the hand-held handle 1. A round hole is opened in the middle of the outer mounting shell 35, and the cross-sectional area of the round hole is larger than the cross-sectional area of the fixed shaft 34, allowing the hand-held handle 1 to rotate. One end of the fixed shaft 34 passes through the outer mounting shell 35 and is provided with an inner mounting shell 31 through a bolt 33. The inner mounting shell 31 is located inside the outer mounting shell 35, and the size of the inner mounting shell 31 matches the size of the outer mounting shell 35. By combining the fixed shaft 34 and the inner mounting shell 31 to connect the mounting seat 2 and the outer mounting shell 35, the hand-held handle 1 and the mounting seat 2 are firmly connected. On one side of the inner mounting shell 31, a pair of limiting blocks 32 are symmetrically arranged. At the position corresponding to the limiting blocks 32 in the outer mounting shell 35, a limiting groove 39 is opened. By engaging the limiting blocks 32 into the limiting groove 39, the hand-held handle 1 can be fixed and the hand-held handle 1 does not rotate.

[0020] A round hole is opened in the middle of the outer mounting shell 36, and the cross-sectional area of the round hole is larger than the cross-sectional area of the fixed shaft 34, allowing the hand-held handle 1 to rotate. One end of the fixed shaft 34 passes through the outer mounting shell 36 and is provided with a folding button 38. The folding button 38 is located inside the outer mounting shell 36, and the size of the folding button 38 matches the size of the outer mounting shell 36. By combining the fixed shaft 34 and the folding button 38 to connect the mounting seat 2 and the outer mounting shell 36, the hand-held handle 1 and the mounting seat 2 are firmly connected. On the side of the bottom of the mounting seat 2 away from the outer mounting shell 35, there is a spring 37. The spring 37 is sleeved outside the fixed shaft 34, and one end of the spring 37 away from the mounting seat 2 is connected to the folding button 38. When the user presses the folding button 38 with the hand, the spring 37 is compressed. When the user releases the hand, the spring 37 can push the folding button 38 outwards to make the folding button 38 return to its original position.

[0021] In use, first, the user presses the folding button 38 with one hand. The spring 37 between the mounting base 2 and the folding button 38 is squeezed inward. The folding button 38 pushes the fixed shaft 34 to move, and the fixed shaft 34 pushes out the inner mounting shell one 31 outward. At this time, the limiting block 32 on one side of the inner mounting shell one 31 exits the limiting groove 39 in the outer mounting shell one 35, enabling the hand-held handle 1 to rotate. Then, the user can hold the hand-held handle 1 with the other hand and flip the hand-held handle 1 180 degrees into the pot. Next, the user can release the folding button 38, and the spring 37 pushes the folding button 38 outward, causing the folding button 38 to return to its original position, thereby driving the fixed shaft 34 to pull back the inner mounting shell one 31, so that the limiting block 32 on one side of the inner mounting shell one 31 is re-engaged in the limiting groove 39, thus fixing the hand-held handle 1 and completing the storage of the folding pot handle, reducing the space occupation. If you want to use the pot, you can flip the hand-held handle 1 out of the pot in the same way as described above.

[0022] It should be understood that the above specific embodiments of the present invention are only used for illustrative explanation or interpretation of the principle of the present invention, and do not constitute a limitation to the present invention. Therefore, any modifications, equivalent replacements, improvements, etc. made without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention shall be included within the protection scope of the present invention. In addition, the appended claims of the present invention are intended to cover all changes and modifications that fall within the scope and boundary of the appended claims, or equivalent forms of such scope and boundary.
