Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of kitchen utensils, in particular to a silica gel splash-proof pot cover. Background Art

[0002] Splash-proof pot covers are often used to cover the mouth of the pot when cooking to prevent the high-temperature hot oil in the pot from splashing out, thereby improving the hygiene of the kitchen environment and protecting the chef from hot oil burns.

[0003] The existing patent discloses a splash-proof silicone cover, which mainly includes a circular shaping frame and a silicone disc wrapped on the shaping frame. Since the splash-proof silicone cover completely covers the pot mouth when in use, when you want to observe the status of the food in the pot, you need to take away the entire splash-proof silicone cover to see the status of the food. It is difficult to temporarily and hygienically place the splash-proof silicone cover. If the splash-proof silicone cover is needed later, it needs to be covered again, which is inconvenient for the chef to operate.

[0004] It can be seen that the existing technology still needs to be improved and enhanced. Utility Model Content

[0005] In view of the above-mentioned deficiencies in the prior art, the purpose of the present invention is to provide a silicone splash-proof pot cover, which can partially expose the pot mouth for observing the food by folding the silicone splash-proof pot cover.

[0006] In order to achieve the above purpose, the utility model adopts the following technical solutions:

[0007] A silicone splash-proof pot cover comprises two symmetrical and spaced-apart frames, and a circular silicone cover wrapping the two frames. The circular silicone cover is provided with a plurality of breathable areas arranged in a circular array, each breathable area is provided with an exhaust hole, and a foldable gap is formed between the two frames. The silicone in the circular silicone cover at the foldable gap can be deformed and bent, so that one of the frames can be flipped and stacked on the other frame.

[0008] As a further improvement of the above technical solution, the skeleton is a D-shaped structure consisting of long straight segments and arc segments, and the foldable gap is located between the long straight segments of the two skeletons.

[0009] As a further improvement of the above technical solution, the skeleton is a fan-shaped structure surrounded by an outer arc segment, an inner arc segment and two short straight line segments. The inner arc segment and the two short straight line segments are connected to form an inner line segment, and the foldable gap is located between the inner line segments of the two skeletons.

[0010] As a further improvement of the above technical solution, the inner arc segments of the two skeletons enclose a stirring zone, and the circular silicone cover is provided with a deformation slot in the silicone at the stirring zone for the stirring device to pass through.

[0011] As a further improvement of the above technical solution, the deformation notch is in a cross-shaped shape.

[0012] As a further improvement of the above technical solution, both the front and back surfaces of the circular silicone cover are provided with smooth surfaces in the ventilation area.

[0013] As a further improvement of the above technical solution, two symmetrical gripping ears are integrally formed on the edge of the circular silicone cover.

[0014] The beneficial effects of the present invention: Compared with the prior art, the silicone splash-proof pot cover provided by the present invention is cleverly designed as a circular silicone cover wrapped around two spaced-apart frames, which not only provides reliable structural support when the silicone splash-proof pot cover is used normally for splash-proofing, but also utilizes the foldable gap design between the two frames and the deformable bending characteristics of the circular silicone cover at the gap. Only one of the frames needs to be folded onto the other frame to expose the pot mouth and observe the status of the food in the pot without removing the entire pot cover, which makes it convenient for the chef to understand the cooking progress at any time and improve cooking efficiency and quality.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0020] The present invention provides a silicone anti-splash pot cover. To make the purpose, technical solution, and effects of the present invention more clear and explicit, the present invention is further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and examples. It should be understood that the specific examples described herein are only intended to illustrate the present invention and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0021] See also Figure 1 and Figure 2The utility model provides a silicone splash-proof pot cover, comprising two symmetrical and spaced-apart frames 1, and a circular silicone cover 2 wrapping the two frames 1. The circular silicone cover 2 is provided with a plurality of air-permeable areas 21 arranged in a circular array, each air-permeable area 21 is provided with an exhaust hole 22, and a foldable gap 23 is formed between the two frames 1. The silicone in the circular silicone cover 2 at the foldable gap 23 can be deformed and bent, so that one of the frames 1 can be flipped and stacked on the other frame 1.

[0022] During the cooking process, the silicone splash-proof pot cover is placed on the pot mouth. Two symmetrical and spaced-apart frames 1 provide support for the circular silicone cover 2 to ensure the stability of the overall shape of the pot cover. The circular silicone cover 2 wrapped on the frame 1 can effectively prevent the high-temperature hot oil in the pot from splashing out, thereby improving the kitchen environment and protecting the chef from hot oil burns.

[0023] The circular silicone cover 2 is provided with a plurality of ventilation areas 21 arranged in a circular array. The exhaust holes 22 on these ventilation areas 21 can discharge steam and other gases in the pot during cooking to prevent the pressure in the pot from being too high.

[0024] When the chef needs to observe the food inside the pot, the two frames 1 form a foldable gap 23, and the silicone rubber of the circular silicone cover 2 can be bent at this gap. This allows one frame 1 to be flipped over and folded onto the other. This allows a portion of the silicone splash-proof pot lid to be folded up, revealing the pot opening, allowing the chef to conveniently observe the food inside without having to remove the entire pot lid. This design not only facilitates the chef's operation but also allows the pot lid's splash-proof function to be quickly restored after observation, without having to replace the entire lid, thus improving user convenience.

[0025] Compared with the prior art, the silicone splash-proof pot cover provided by the present invention is cleverly designed as a circular silicone cover 2 wrapping two spaced-apart frames 1, which not only provides reliable structural support when the silicone splash-proof pot cover is used normally for splash-proofing, but also utilizes the foldable gap 23 design between the two frames 1 and the deformable bending characteristics of the circular silicone cover 2 at the gap. Only one of the frames 1 needs to be folded onto the other frame 1 to expose the pot mouth and observe the status of the food in the pot without removing the entire pot cover, which makes it convenient for the chef to understand the cooking progress at any time and improve cooking efficiency and quality.

[0026] In one embodiment, see Figure 4As shown, the skeleton 1 is formed by bending and connecting steel wires. The steel wires have high strength and toughness, and can provide stable and reliable support for the circular silicone cover 2, ensuring that the pot cover is not easily deformed or damaged during use, thereby extending the service life of the pot cover. The skeleton 1 is a D-shaped structure composed of a long straight line segment 11 and an arc segment 12. The foldable gap 23 is located between the long straight line segments 11 of the two skeletons 1, making the folding operation smoother and more natural. The structure of the long straight line segment 11 makes the force during folding more uniform, reducing the risk of wear and damage to the silicone cover during the folding process. At the same time, the design of this position also makes the folded pot cover more compact, which is convenient for storage and carrying.

[0027] It can be understood that the outer edge silicone of the circular silicone cover 2 covers the arc segment 12 of the skeleton 1, while the inner silicone of the circular silicone cover 2 covers the long straight segment 11 of the skeleton 1, so that the skeleton 1 and the circular silicone cover 2 are integrated into one.

[0028] In one embodiment, see Figure 3 As shown, the skeleton 1 is made of bent steel wires, which ensures the structural strength. The fan-shaped structure allows the skeleton 1 to evenly distribute the force when bearing the weight of the silicone lid and various pressures during cooking, thereby improving the overall stability of the pot lid and preventing deformation or damage. The skeleton 1 is a fan-shaped structure surrounded by an outer arc segment 13, an inner arc segment 14, and two short straight segments 15. The inner arc segment 14 and the two short straight segments 15 are connected to form an inner segment. The foldable gap 23 is located between the inner segments of the two skeletons 1. Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the inner arc segments 14 of the two skeletons 1 enclose a stirring zone 24, and the circular silicone cover 2 is provided with a deformation notch 25 in the silicone at the stirring zone 24 for a stirring device to pass through. The stirring device can specifically be a soup spoon, an egg beater, or an electric mixer, so that during the cooking process, when the silicone splash-proof pot cover covers the pot mouth, the stirring device can be extended into the pot for stirring, preventing the food, oil and water in the pot from splashing out during the stirring process. This not only maintains the temperature and humidity in the pot, but also improves the efficiency and convenience of cooking. At the same time, the design of the deformation notch 25 can quickly return to its original shape after the stirring device passes through, and continue to play a splash-proof role.

[0029] It can be understood that the outer edge silicone of the circular silicone cover 2 covers the outer arc segment 13 of the skeleton 1, while the inner silicone of the circular silicone cover 2 covers the inner segment of the skeleton 1, so that the skeleton 1 and the circular silicone cover 2 are integrated into one.

[0030] In one embodiment, the deformation notch 25 is shaped like a cross. In other words, it includes a central hole and a plurality of radial grooves arranged in an array, interconnecting the central hole. This cross-shaped design allows the silicone to evenly distribute its deformation when squeezed by the stirring element. This allows the silicone to quickly return to its original shape after the stirring element passes through, maintaining a good seal around the stirring element and effectively preventing the hot oil in the pot from splashing out. This rapid recovery ensures that the pot lid remains stable and reliable in its splash-proof performance during use.

[0031] Preferably, both the front and back surfaces of the circular silicone lid 2 are polished in the ventilation area 21, making this area smooth and flat, making it less susceptible to grease and food residue, and reducing bacterial growth. After cooking, cleaning the lid is quick and easy; a gentle wipe with a damp cloth removes most stains, reducing cleaning effort and time. Because the polished surface resists dust and dirt, the ventilation area 21 remains relatively clean, preventing dirt accumulation from affecting the proper function of the vents 22. This helps ensure the lid maintains good ventilation throughout use, ensuring smooth cooking.

[0032] Preferably, two symmetrical gripping ears 3 are integrally formed on the edge of the circular silicone lid 2. This provides a convenient grip for the user when handling the pot lid. When picking up, placing, or folding the pot lid, the user can easily grasp the gripping ears 3, avoiding direct contact with the silicone lid surface that could stain their hands or cause deformation. The gripping ears 3 also allow the user to hang the pot lid on a hook in the kitchen, saving space and keeping the kitchen tidy and organized.
