The hook 130 of the slot 110, in other embodiments, the hook 130 can be set on the fixed slot 110; the position corresponding to the hook 130 on the fixed slot 110 is matched with a hook hole, the structure of the hook hole is not shown in the figure, when the handle 120 closes the fixed slot 110, the protruding hook body on the hook 130 is embedded in the hook hole of the fixed slot 110 to form a snap state, so that the handle 120 remains embedded in the fixed slot 110; the handle 120 is provided with a button 140 that can push the hook 130 to unlock. After the button 140 pushes the hook 130, the hook body of the hook 130 is separated from the hook hole, so that the handle 120 is released from the state of being locked in the fixed slot 110, and the handle 120 is flipped upward by the force of the torsion spring 121. The user can open or close the lid of the pressure cooker by holding the handle 120.
[0023] Furthermore, a rotating shaft 111 is provided in the fixing groove 110, and the handle 120 is provided with an axis hole 123 corresponding to the rotating shaft 111. The handle 120 is connected and fixed in the fixing groove 110 through the rotating shaft 111. The handle 120 is flipped in the axial direction of the rotating shaft 111. Two torsion springs 121 are respectively sleeved on the rotating shaft 111. The handle 120 is a hollow structure. The rotating shaft 111 passes through the interior of the handle 120. The torsion spring 121 is located in the handle 120. When the torsion spring 121 is installed, its two spring arms face the side of the fixing groove 110 close to the edge of the pot cover 100, and are sleeved on the rotating shaft 111 in this direction. One end of the torsion spring 121 faces upward and contacts the handle 1 20; an extension hole 122 is provided at the bottom of the handle 120, and the spring arm at the other end of the torsion spring 121 protrudes outward through the extension hole 122 and contacts the fixing slot 110.

When the handle 120 is unlocked, it automatically flips up due to the force of the torsion spring 121 until it stops after forming a blocking position with the limiting convex body 113, and each time it flips up, it maintains a consistent angle. The button 140 is telescopically movable on the handle 120, and the button 140 is provided with a convex column 140 protruding from the handle 120. 1. When the button 140 is telescopically moved, the boss 141 pushes the hook 130. Generally, the button 140 is provided with a buckle structure to prevent it from being separated from the handle. The handle 120 is provided with a slot to accommodate the button 140. The button 140 is embedded in the slot. A spring connected to the slot is provided inside the button 140 (the spring is not shown in the figure). The spring causes the button 140 to bounce back after being pressed. When the button 140 is pressed down, the boss 141 presses against the hook 130. Depending on the structure of the hook 130 set on the handle 120 or the fixed slot 110, the hook 130 is separated from the handle or the fixed slot 110, and the handle 120 will automatically flip up.
