[0002] Existing pressure cooking appliances generally include a pot cover assembly and a pot body assembly. In some pressure cooking appliances, the rear end of the pot cover assembly is rotatably connected to the pot body assembly via a rotating shaft, and the front end of the pot cover assembly is snap-fitted with the pot body assembly via a snap-fit structure.
[0003] During the cooking process of a pressure cooking appliance, the pressure inside the pot will be greater than the external pressure, causing the pot lid assembly to withstand greater pressure.

[0004] In the related art, the bracket reinforcement structure is usually fixed on the lining cover of the pot cover assembly, and the bracket reinforcement structure is connected to the rotating shaft. When pressure is generated inside the pressure cooking device, the bracket reinforcement structure will press the lining cover to prevent the lining cover from deforming upward.
[0005] However, although the bracket reinforcement structure can prevent the liner cover from deforming upward, when the internal pressure of the pressure cooking device is high, there is a risk that the pot cover assembly will warp upward around the rotating axis, causing the pot cover assembly to suddenly disengage and pop open.

[0037] In order to more clearly understand the above-mentioned purpose, features and advantages of the present invention, the scheme of the present invention will be further described below. It should be noted that, in the absence of conflict, the embodiments of the present invention and the features therein can be combined with each other.
[0038] In the following description, many specific details are set forth to facilitate a full understanding of the present invention, but the present invention may also be implemented in other ways different from those described herein; it is obvious that the embodiments in the specification are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all of the embodiments.
[0039] Some embodiments of the present invention provide a pot cover assembly of a cooking utensil, wherein the pot cover assembly of the cooking utensil can be hinged to a pot body assembly of the cooking utensil to form a cooking cavity for cooking food therebetween.
[0040] Reference Figures 1 to 7 As shown, some embodiments of the present invention provide a pot cover assembly for a cooking utensil, comprising a lining cover 11, the lining cover 11 having a front end portion and a rear end portion opposite to each other along the front-to-back direction, and the rear end portion of the lining cover 11 is rotatably connected to the pot body assembly via a rotating shaft 12. Figure 1 As shown, the front-to-back direction indicated by the arrow in the figure is the front-to-back direction of the lining cover 11.
[0041] It should be understood that the pot cover assembly of the cooking utensil usually includes an outer cover, an inner cover and a lining cover 11 arranged between the outer cover and the inner cover, wherein the outer cover serves as the appearance part of the pot cover assembly and can also be called the surface cover; the inner cover serves as the pressure-bearing part of the pot cover assembly and is generally made of metal, and can also be called a pressure-bearing cover or a steel cover; the lining cover 11 is arranged between the outer cover and the inner cover and is generally made of plastic and is used as a mounting part for some components (such as the rotating shaft 12, the lever, etc.).
[0042] To achieve a snap-fit connection between the pot lid assembly and the pot body assembly, a snap-fit portion is generally provided at the front end of the pot lid assembly's lining cover 11, and a button plate is provided on the pot body 21 of the pot body assembly. The button plate is provided with a lid-opening snap corresponding to the snap-fit portion. The lid-opening snap engages with the snap-fit portion to achieve a snap-fit connection between the pot lid assembly and the pot body assembly. In addition, to meet the strength requirements of the pot lid assembly, a metal bracket reinforcement structure is generally installed on the pot lid assembly's lining cover 11. However, when the internal pressure of the cooking appliance is high, there is a risk that the pot lid assembly will warp upward around the rotating shaft 12, causing the pot lid assembly to suddenly disengage and pop open.
[0043] Based on this, refer to Figures 1 to 7 As shown, the pot cover assembly provided by some embodiments of the present invention further includes a first reinforcing bracket 13 and a second reinforcing bracket 14, and the first reinforcing bracket 13 and the second reinforcing bracket 14 are both connected to the lining cover 11; wherein, the first reinforcing bracket 13 is extended along the front and rear directions of the lining cover 11, the rear end portion of the first reinforcing bracket 13 is connected to the rotating shaft 12, and the front end portion of the first reinforcing bracket 13 is connected to the second reinforcing bracket 14, and a snap-fit portion 141 is formed on the second reinforcing bracket 14, and the snap-fit portion 141 is configured to snap-fit with the cover opening buckle 230 on the pot body assembly.
[0044] In a specific implementation, the first reinforcing bracket 13 and the second reinforcing bracket 14 can both be made of metal to ensure that the first reinforcing bracket 13 and the second reinforcing bracket 14 have sufficient structural strength; and a snap-fit portion 141 is formed on the second reinforcing bracket 14 for snapping together with the lid opening buckle 230 on the pot body assembly, that is, the snap-fit portion 141 on the pot lid assembly for snapping together with the pot body assembly is arranged on the second reinforcing bracket 14 with higher structural strength, rather than on the relatively fragile lining cover 11.
[0045] The pot lid assembly of the cooking utensil provided in the above-described embodiment of the present invention is provided by connecting a first reinforcing bracket 13 and a second reinforcing bracket 14 to the lining cover 11 of the pot lid assembly. The first reinforcing bracket 13 extends along the front-to-back direction of the lining cover 11, with the rear end of the first reinforcing bracket 13 connected to the rotating shaft 12, and the front end of the first reinforcing bracket 13 connected to the second reinforcing bracket 14. The second reinforcing bracket 14 is formed with a snapping portion 141 for engaging with the lid opening latch 230 on the pot body assembly. Thus, the first reinforcing bracket 13 and the second reinforcing bracket 14 connect the rotating shaft 12 and the lid opening latch 230 together, forming a stable structure fixed at two points along the front-to-back direction of the lining cover 11. Therefore, even when the internal pressure of the pressure cooking utensil is high, the lining cover 11 can be effectively compressed to prevent it from deforming or tilting. This effectively improves the closing strength and stability of the pot lid assembly under high pressure conditions, effectively reducing the risk of the pot lid assembly tilting about the rotating shaft 12 under high pressure conditions, causing the pot lid assembly to suddenly disengage and pop open, thereby improving the safety and user experience of the cooking utensil.
[0046] It should be noted that, in the above embodiment, the rear end portion of the first reinforcing bracket 13 is connected to the rotating shaft 12. Specifically, the rear end portion of the first reinforcing bracket 13 can be directly connected to the rotating shaft 12. For example, a mounting hole for the rotating shaft 12 to pass through is provided on the first reinforcing bracket 13. The rotating shaft 12 is passed through the mounting hole and fixed in the mounting hole, so that the first reinforcing bracket 13 can rotate synchronously with the rotating shaft 12 when the cover is opened and closed; of course, the rear end portion of the first reinforcing bracket 13 can also be indirectly connected to the rotating shaft 12. For example, a rotating shaft bracket is provided on the lining cover 11, the rotating shaft 12 is mounted on the rotating shaft bracket, and the first reinforcing bracket 13 is connected to the rotating shaft bracket, so that the first reinforcing bracket 13 is connected to the rotating shaft 12 through the rotating shaft bracket.
[0047] In some embodiments, reference Figure 1 、 Figure 3 and Figure 5As shown, there are two first reinforcing brackets 13, and the two first reinforcing brackets 13 are arranged opposite to each other along the left and right directions of the lining cover 11. The rear ends of the two first reinforcing brackets 13 are connected to the rotating shaft 12, and the front ends of the two first reinforcing brackets 13 are connected to the second reinforcing bracket 14.
[0048] Such an arrangement allows the two first reinforcing brackets 13, which are opposite to each other on the left and right, to apply a compressive force to different parts of the lining cover 11, thereby better compressing the lining cover 11 and preventing the lining cover 11 from deforming upward. In addition, the two first reinforcing brackets 13 are both connected to the rotating shaft 12 and the second reinforcing bracket 14, so that the rotating shaft 12 and the lid opening buckle 230 are connected together through the second reinforcing bracket 14 and the two first reinforcing brackets 13, forming a stable structure fixed at two points along the front-to-back direction of the lining cover 11. The overall structural strength of the two first reinforcing brackets 13 located between the two points (i.e., the rotating shaft 12 and the lid opening buckle 230) is high, thereby better preventing the lining cover 11 from deforming upward. The clamping portion 141 provided on the second reinforcing bracket 14 cooperates with the lid opening buckle 230 on the pot body assembly to ensure the firmness of the clamping fit, thereby more effectively compressing the lining cover 11 and preventing the lining cover 11 from rotating upward about the rotating shaft 12, thereby reducing the risk of the pot cover assembly tilting up about the rotating shaft 12 and causing the pot cover assembly to suddenly disengage and pop open.
[0049] In addition, the two first reinforcing brackets 13 are connected to the second reinforcing bracket 14 to form a connected reinforcing structure. Compared with multiple independently arranged reinforcing brackets, the overall structural strength of the reinforcing brackets can be better improved, thereby achieving the effect of better preventing the lining cover 11 from deforming.
[0050] Of course, in a specific implementation, it is not limited to setting two first reinforcing brackets 13 opposite to each other on the left and right sides of the lining cover 11. The two first reinforcing brackets 13 may also be an integrated reinforcing bracket structure, such as a plate-shaped reinforcing bracket structure.
[0051] It should be noted that, in actual use, other structural components are usually provided on the lining cover 11. By providing two first reinforcing brackets 13 opposite to each other on the left and right, the structural strength of the lining cover 11 is strengthened without affecting the arrangement of other structural components on the lining cover 11. That is, there is no need to provide an avoidance structure on the first reinforcing bracket 13, so that the structure of the first reinforcing bracket 13 is simpler and easier to process, and is conducive to the smooth assembly of the lining cover 11 and other structural components thereon.
[0052] In some embodiments, reference Figure 1 、 Figure 3 、 Figure 5 and Figure 7As shown, the second reinforcing bracket 14 is provided at the front end of the lining cover 11 and extends in the left-right direction of the lining cover 11 . Both ends of the second reinforcing bracket 14 in the left-right direction are connected to the front ends of the two first reinforcing brackets 13 respectively.
[0053] Such a configuration makes it convenient to set the snap-fit portion 141 on the second reinforcing bracket 14 to meet the requirements of the snap-fit portion 141 corresponding to and snap-fitting with the cover-opening buckle 230 on the pot body assembly, and enables the two end portions of the second reinforcing bracket 14 along the left and right directions to be respectively connected to the first reinforcing bracket 13, thereby forming a connected reinforcement structure to better improve the overall structural strength of the reinforcing bracket.
[0054] In some embodiments, reference Figure 1 、 Figures 3 to 6 As shown, the rear end of the lining cover 11 is connected to the first rotating shaft bracket 15, the first rotating shaft bracket 15 extends along the left and right directions of the lining cover 11, the rotating shaft 12 is installed on the first rotating shaft bracket 15, and the two ends of the first rotating shaft bracket 15 along the left and right directions are respectively connected to the rear ends of the two first reinforcing brackets 13.
[0055] In the specific implementation, refer to Figure 6 As shown, a first rotating shaft bracket 15 can be provided at the rear end portion of the lining cover 11. Specifically, a slot can be provided at the rear end portion of the lining cover 11 to place the first rotating shaft bracket 15, and the first rotating shaft bracket 15 can be fixed to the lining cover 11 by fasteners such as screws; accordingly, a second rotating shaft bracket 22 can be provided on the pot body 21 of the pot body assembly. Specifically, a slot can be provided at the rear end portion of the pot body 21 to place the second rotating shaft bracket 22, and the second rotating shaft bracket 22 can be fixed to the pot body 21 by fasteners such as screws.
[0056] During assembly, a first rotation axis hole can be formed on the first rotation axis bracket 15, and a second rotation axis hole can be formed on the second rotation axis bracket 22. The rotation axis 12 is inserted into the second rotation axis hole and the first rotation axis hole, and the rotation axis 12 is rotatably connected to the second rotation axis hole. The rotation axis 12 and the first rotation axis hole are relatively fixed, so that the first rotation axis bracket 15 connected to the lining cover 11 can rotate synchronously with the rotation axis 12 when the cover is opened or closed. Specifically, a flat portion can be provided on the rotation axis 12, and a corresponding flat portion can be provided on the wall of the first rotation axis hole, so that the corresponding flat portion cooperates to limit the rotation of the rotation axis 12 in the first rotation axis hole.
[0057] In the specific implementation, refer to Figure 6As shown, the first reinforcing bracket 13 can be fixedly connected to the first rotating shaft bracket 15 by fasteners such as screws. Specifically, corresponding screw holes can be opened on the first reinforcing bracket 13, the first rotating shaft bracket 15 and the lining cover 11, and the first reinforcing bracket 13 and the first rotating shaft bracket 15 can be fixed to the lining cover 11 by screws inserted into the corresponding screw holes.
[0058] In some embodiments, reference Figure 1 、 Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, the front ends of the two first reinforcing brackets 13 are respectively connected to the left and right ends of the second reinforcing bracket 14, and the rear ends of the two first reinforcing brackets 13 are respectively connected to the left and right ends of the first rotating shaft bracket 15. This arrangement enables the two first reinforcing brackets 13, the second reinforcing bracket 14, and the first rotating shaft bracket 15 to collectively form a closed annular reinforcement structure, which can more effectively enhance the reinforcement effect on the lining cover 11, thereby better preventing the lining cover 11 from deforming.
[0059] In some embodiments, reference Figure 2 、 Figure 3 and Figure 6 As shown, the second reinforcing bracket 14 includes a bracket body 142, and the engaging portion 141 is a hook connected to the front end of the bracket body 142. Specifically, the hook may include an extension portion and a bent portion. The extension portion is connected to the front end of the bracket body 142 and bent downward. The bent portion is connected to the lower end of the extension portion and bent toward the rear end of the bracket body 142, so that the extension portion and the bent portion together form a hook-shaped structure.
[0060] For example, referring to Figure 6 As shown, the pot body 21 of the pot assembly is provided with a button assembly 23. Specifically, the button assembly 23 may include a button 231, a button plate 232, a button spring 233, a button shaft 234, and a button bracket 235. The button plate 232 is rotatably mounted on the button bracket 235 via the button shaft 234. A cover opening latch 230 is provided on the button plate 232. The button spring 233 is elastically supported between the button plate 232 and the button bracket 235. The button 231 is mounted on the button plate 232. Specifically, the cover latch may be provided at the upper end of the button plate 232, and the cover opening latch 230 is also formed in a hook-shaped structure.
[0061] During use, when the pot lid assembly and pot body assembly are closed, the elastic force of the button spring 233 causes the lid opening buckle 230 to engage with the engaging portion 141 on the second reinforcing bracket 14, thereby achieving a snap connection between the pot lid assembly and the pot body assembly. When the pot lid needs to be opened, pressing the button 231 drives the button plate 232 to rotate about the button rotation axis 234, causing the lid opening buckle 230 to disengage from the engaging portion 141 on the second reinforcing bracket 14, thereby opening the pot lid.
[0062] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 6 As shown, in order to ensure that the cover opening buckle 230 can smoothly cooperate with the clamping portion 141 on the second reinforcing bracket 14, the front end of the lining cover 11 is provided with an avoidance space 111 corresponding to the hook, and the cover opening buckle 230 passes through the avoidance space 111 and engages with the hook on the second reinforcing bracket 14.
[0063] In some embodiments, reference Figure 1 、 Figure 3 、 Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, a bent portion 131 is formed on the first reinforcing bracket 13. The bent portion 131 is arranged near the front end of the first reinforcing bracket 13 and gradually extends downward in a direction from the rear end toward the front end of the first reinforcing bracket 13. In other words, the portion of the first reinforcing bracket 13 near the front end is bent downward. This arrangement allows the first reinforcing bracket 13 to better fit the design of the lining cover 11, thereby better fitting and assembling with the lining cover 11 and preventing deformation of the lining cover 11. In addition, it can also leave more room for the external shape of the pot cover assembly, contributing to the diversity of the appearance and miniaturization.
[0064] In some embodiments, reference Figure 1 、 Figure 4 、 Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, a torsion spring 16 is sleeved on the rotating shaft 12, and the torsion spring 16 includes a torsion spring body and a first torsion foot and a second torsion foot connected to the torsion spring body; the first torsion foot is configured to abut and cooperate with the pot body assembly, and the second torsion foot is extended along the front and rear directions of the lining cover 11, and the second torsion foot is pressed between the first reinforcing bracket 13 and the lining cover 11.
[0065] In this way, by arranging the torsion spring 16 on the rotating shaft 12, the torsion spring 16 can store elastic potential energy when the pot cover assembly and the pot body assembly are closed. In this way, when the lid is opened, the elastic potential energy released by the torsion spring 16 can drive the pot cover assembly to rotate from the closed position to the open position; by pressing the second torsion foot of the torsion spring 16 between the first reinforcing bracket 13 and the lining cover 11, the rebound force of the torsion spring 16 is applied to the fastened first reinforcing bracket 13 instead of the fragile plastic lining cover 11, the structure is more solid, and the risk of popping out due to damage to the plastic lining cover 11 is reduced.
[0066] In the specific implementation, refer to Figure 6 As shown, a torsion spring cover 17 can be sleeved on the rotating shaft 12, and the torsion spring 16 can be sleeved on the torsion spring cover 17. By providing the torsion spring cover 17, the torsion spring 16 can be securely mounted on the rotating shaft 12. Specifically, there can be two torsion springs 16, both of which are sleeved on the rotating shaft 12. The second torsion leg of one torsion spring 16 can be pressed between one of the first reinforcing brackets 13 and the lining cover 11, and the second torsion leg of the other torsion spring 16 can be pressed between the other first reinforcing bracket 13 and the lining cover 11.
[0067] In some embodiments, reference Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, a plurality of screw columns 112 are arranged at intervals along the front-to-back direction on the lining cover 11, and a plurality of screw holes 132 are arranged at intervals along the front-to-back direction on the first reinforcing bracket 13. The first reinforcing bracket 13 is fixedly connected to the lining cover 11 by fasteners passing through the screw holes 132 and the corresponding screw columns 112 to ensure that the first reinforcing bracket 13 is firmly installed on the lining cover 11.
[0068] During the specific assembly, the first reinforcing bracket 13 can be placed above the screw column 112 along the layout direction of the multiple screw columns 112, and the multiple screw holes 132 on the first reinforcing bracket 13 can be aligned one by one with the multiple screw columns 112, and the screws can be driven in sequence to achieve the connection and fixation between the first reinforcing bracket 13 and the lining cover 11.
[0069] In some embodiments, reference Figure 6 As shown, the lining cover 11 is provided with a reinforcing rib 113 extending in the front-to-back direction and located on at least one side of the plurality of screw columns 112 to enhance the structural strength of the connection between the lining cover 11 and the first reinforcing bracket 13 and ensure the reinforcing effect of the first reinforcing bracket 13 on the lining cover 11.
[0070] In some embodiments, reference Figure 3As shown, the first reinforcement bracket 13 and the second reinforcement bracket 14 are split-type bracket structures. Specifically, the first reinforcement bracket 13 can be fixedly connected to the second reinforcement bracket 14 using fasteners such as screws. Providing the first reinforcement bracket 13 and the second reinforcement bracket 14 as split-type bracket structures facilitates both the processing of the first reinforcement bracket 13 and the second reinforcement bracket 14 and the convenient assembly of the first reinforcement bracket 13 and the second reinforcement bracket 14 to the lining cover 11.
[0071] In other embodiments, referring to Figure 7 As shown, the first reinforcement bracket 13 and the second reinforcement bracket 14 are an integrated bracket structure. Specifically, the first reinforcement bracket 13 and the second reinforcement bracket 14 can be an integrally formed bracket structure, or a bracket structure connected into one by welding or other methods. This arrangement can reduce component costs and manufacturing costs.
