[0048] The lid of the present invention provides a gap between the lid and the flange of the cooking container. Condensed water can be retained in this gap due to surface tension, thereby sealing the gap. The tension-enhancing portion protrudes downward from the lower surface of the lid, further reducing the size of the gap. This increases the surface tension of the condensed water, improving its resistance to air pressure and enhancing the seal reliability between the lid and the cooking container. The tension-enhancing portion also increases the surface area of the gap, facilitating the retention of condensed water.
[0049] A fourth aspect of the present invention provides a cover for a cooking utensil, wherein the cooking utensil comprises a cooking container, wherein an opening of the cooking container is configured with a flange bent radially outward, and the cover comprises:

[0098] The present application provides a cover plate, a detachable cover plate assembly, a cover body and a cooking utensil.
[0099] Now, exemplary embodiments according to the present invention will be described in more detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0100] like Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, a cooking utensil 100 according to a specific embodiment of the present application primarily comprises a lid 10 and a pot body 90. The pot body 90 is generally rectangular in shape with rounded corners and has a cylindrical cooking container compartment. A cooking container 91 can be freely placed in and removed from the compartment, making it easy to clean. The top of the cooking container 91 has a circular opening for placing ingredients to be heated, such as rice or soup, into the cooking container 91. The opening of the cooking container 91 is provided with an outwardly curved flange 92. For example, the flange 92 has a horizontal upper surface with a radial dimension of 5 mm to 25 mm in the cooking container 91. The lid 10 is generally rectangular in shape with rounded corners and substantially corresponds to the shape of the pot body 90. The lid 10 is pivotally connected to the pot body 90 in an openable and closable manner, used to cover the pot body 90. When the lid 10 is closed on the pot body 90, a cooking space is defined between the lid 10 and the cooking container 91.
[0101] The lid body 10 includes a lining cover 11 and a detachable cover assembly 30, which is detachably connected to the lining cover 11. One side of the lining cover 11 along the length direction is a connecting end that is pivotally connected to the pot body 90, and the other side is a pivot end for opening and closing the lid.
[0102] like Figures 2 to 5 As shown, the removable lid assembly 30 includes a cover plate 31 and a sealing ring 50. The sealing ring 50 is mounted on the cover plate 31. The lower end of the sealing ring 50 protrudes downward from the lowest point of the lower surface of the cover plate 31. When the lid 10 covers the pot body 90, the lower end of the sealing ring 50 contacts the upper surface of the flange 92, thereby sealing the lid 10 and the cooking container 91.
[0103] It should be noted that “up” and “down” in the present application refer to the directions corresponding to the state in which the cooking utensil 100 is placed normally and the lid 10 is covered on the pot body 90 .
[0104] The cover plate 31 includes an edge portion 33 and a central portion 32. The edge portion 33 is the radially outermost portion of the cover plate 31 and is used to mount the sealing ring 50. The central portion 32 is radially located inward of the edge portion 33, with its outer periphery connected to the edge portion 33. The lower surface of the central portion 32 is configured with at least one downwardly protruding tension-enhancing portion 35 spaced apart in the radial direction. Each tension-enhancing portion 35 extends around the circumference D1 of the central portion 32. The tension-enhancing portion 35 is configured to be positioned above the flange 92 when the cover plate 31 covers the opening of the cooking container 91. Typically, when the lid body 10 is closed, a gap exists between the cover plate 31 and the flange 92. The presence of the tension-enhancing portion 35 in the gap reduces its size, resulting in a radially arranged gap with a wide gap and a narrow gap. Under capillary action, the surface tension of the condensed water in the narrow gap (corresponding to the location of the tension-enhancing portion 35) increases, thereby being able to withstand higher air pressure and enhancing the sealing effect between the cover 31 and the cooking container 91. The tension-enhancing portion 35 also increases the surface area of the gap, which is also conducive to the retention of condensed water.
[0105] The sealing ring 50 is connected to the edge 33 of the cover plate 31 and is at least partially lower than the tension-reinforcing portion 35. Specifically, the edge 33 of the cover plate 31 is bent at least downward and then inward to form a rolled cavity 34. The sealing ring 50 includes a connected rolled portion 51 and a sealing portion 52. The rolled portion 51 is located within the rolled cavity 34, while the sealing portion 52 is located outside the rolled cavity 34. The lower end of the sealing portion 52 is configured to contact the upper surface of the flange 92.
[0106] Alternatively, as Figure 5 As shown, the dimension L1 of the tension reinforcement portion 35 protruding downward from the central portion 32 is 0.5mm-1mm. The lower end of the sealing portion 52 protrudes downward from the lower surface of the tension reinforcement portion 35 by no more than 3mm, that is, Figure 5 The dimension L2 does not exceed 3 mm. The tension reinforcement portion 35 is located near the sealing portion 52. In a cross section of the removable cover assembly 30 along the axial direction D2, the radial distance L6 between the geometric center of the sealing portion 52 and the geometric center of the tension reinforcement portion 35 is 3 mm to 10 mm.
[0107] Optionally, each tension reinforcing portion 35 is annular in shape. That is, each tension reinforcing portion 35 extends along the circumferential direction D1 of the central portion 32 for one circle and has a predetermined width in the radial direction of the central portion 32 .
[0108] Optionally, the tension-reinforced portion 35 has a concave-convex structure along the circumferential direction D1, wherein the concave-convex structure is configured to be concave and convex in the radial direction, so that the distance between the inner or outer points of the tension-reinforced portion 35 and the axis of the tension-reinforced portion 35 is different at different circumferential positions. In other words, the inner side, the outer side, or both sides of the tension-reinforced portion 35 meander in the circumferential direction D1.
[0109] For example, the shape of the tension reinforcement portion 35 is configured as an S-shape, a square wave shape, a trapezoidal wave shape, or a triangular wave shape extending in the circumferential direction D1. Figure 4 As shown, the tension reinforcement portion 35 is configured in an S-shape. Figure 6 As shown, the shape of the tension enhancement portion 35 is configured as a square wave of equal length. Figure 7 As shown, the shape of the tension enhancement portion 35 is configured as a square wave of unequal length. Figure 8 As shown, the shape of the tension-enhancing portion 35 is configured as a triangular wave.
[0110] like Figure 9 and Figure 10 As shown, the tension-enhancing portion 35 includes an annular portion 35A and at least one protruding portion 35B. The annular portion 35A extends in a circular ring along the circumferential direction D1 of the central portion 32. The protruding portion 35B is connected to the annular portion 35A and protrudes radially outward or inward from the annular portion 35A. For example, the protruding portion 35B may be square, with one side of the square connected to the annular portion 35A along the inner or outer side of the annular portion 35A. For another example, the protruding portion 35B may be T-shaped, with one vertical end of the T connected to the inner or outer side of the annular portion 35A.
[0111] Optionally, each tension reinforcement portion 35 has a periodic distribution along the circumferential direction D1 . For example, the tension reinforcement portion 35 is configured in a square wave shape extending along the circumferential direction D1 , and each period of the square wave has the same length in the circumferential direction D1 .
[0112] Alternatively, as Figures 6 to 10 As shown, the circumferential dimension L3 of each period of the tension reinforced portion 35 is greater than 3 mm and less than or equal to 25 mm.
[0113] Alternatively, as Figure 8 As shown, the width dimension L4 of the cross section of each tension reinforcement portion 35 is greater than or equal to 1 mm, so that the tension reinforcement portion 35 has enough area to form a gap with the flange 92, that is, the gap formed has enough width in the radial direction.
[0114] Alternatively, as Figure 11 As shown, the lower surface of the central portion 32 is configured with at least two tension enhancement portions 35 . At the same circumferential position, the concave-convex structures of at least two adjacent tension enhancement portions 35 extend in the same radial direction.
[0115] Alternatively, as Figure 12 As shown, the lower surface of the central portion 32 is configured with at least two tension enhancement portions 35 . At the same circumferential position, the concave-convex structures of at least two adjacent tension enhancement portions 35 extend in opposite directions in the radial direction.
[0116] It should be noted that when multiple tension-enhancing portions 35 are provided on the lower surface of the cover plate 31, the multiple tension-enhancing portions 35 may have the same shape or different shapes. For example, at least one of the multiple tension-enhancing portions 35 may have a periodic distribution along the circumferential direction D1, while at least one may not have a periodic distribution along the circumferential direction D1.
[0117] Optionally, the distance between the radially innermost point of all the tension enhancing portions 35 and the axis of the tension enhancing portion 35 is 1 mm to 30 mm smaller than the distance between the radially outermost point of all the tension enhancing portions 35 and the axis of the tension enhancing portion 35, that is, the maximum size of all the tension enhancing portions 35 in the radial direction, such as Figure 11 The size of L5 is 1 mm to 30 mm. The axis of the tension reinforcement portion 35 is the center of its extension shape on the central portion 32.
[0118] Alternatively, as Figure 5 As shown, the central portion 32 is further provided with a water guide 36. This water guide 36 is located radially inward of and adjacent to the tension-enhancing portion 35 of the central portion 32. The water guide 36 is configured to slope downward from the innermost portion to the outermost portion, and is used to guide condensed water from the lower surface of the cover plate 31 toward the tension-enhancing portion 35. After the cooking appliance 100 is used, steam within the cooking space forms droplets on the lower surface of the cover plate 31. The water guide 36 can more quickly collect condensed water and fill any gaps between the cover plate 31 and the opening of the cooking container 91, such as the gap between the tension-enhancing portion 35 and the flange 92, or any gaps between the sealing portion and the flange 92 due to tolerances.
[0119] In another embodiment, Figure 13 As shown, the upper surface of the flange 92 of the cooking container 91 is configured with a tension-enhancing portion 95. Specifically, the upper surface of the flange 92 is provided with at least one circle of upwardly protruding tension-enhancing portion 95, located inside the sealing ring 50. It will be appreciated that the tension-enhancing portion 95 serves the same function as the tension-enhancing portion 35. Optionally, at least one circle of downwardly protruding tension-enhancing portion 35 may also be provided on the lower surface of the lid 10, located inside the sealing ring 50 and above the flange 92, to increase the surface tension of condensed water in the gap between the cover plate 31 and the flange 92.
