Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of kitchen appliances, and in particular to a baking tray and a double-sided baking tray. Background Art

[0002] Baking imparts a unique aroma and flavor to food, making it more delicious and appealing, making it a popular choice. Baking requires a baking tray. Baking trays are typically made of metal, which can easily spark during microwave cooking and are therefore unsuitable for use in microwave ovens. Furthermore, baking trays typically only heat food on one side, resulting in uneven heating and low efficiency, which can affect the food's taste. Utility Model Content

[0003] The present application provides a baking tray and a double-sided baking tray, so that the baking tray can be safely used in a microwave oven and food can be heated on both sides simultaneously.

[0004] A first aspect of the present application provides a baking tray comprising:

[0005] Metal plate;

[0006] The non-metallic sheath is sleeved on the edge of the mouth of the metal disk. The non-metallic sheath is symmetrically provided with a first connecting portion and a second connecting portion on both sides. The first connecting portion and the second connecting portion are two parts of the connecting component that match each other.

[0007] The present invention provides a baking tray comprising a metal tray and a non-metallic sheath. The non-metallic sheath is positioned over the edge of the metal tray to form a non-metallic annular edge. This prevents sparks from metal-to-metal contact within a microwave oven, ensuring safe microwave use. A first connecting portion and a second connecting portion are symmetrically positioned on either side of the non-metallic sheath. The first and second connecting portions form two mating parts of a connecting assembly. In other words, the two parts of the connecting assembly are positioned on opposite sides of a single baking tray, rather than on two identical baking trays. When one of the two identical baking trays is inverted on top of the other, the connecting portions of the two baking trays cooperate to form a complete connecting assembly. The two baking trays are combined to form a double-sided baking tray. The upper and lower baking trays heat food simultaneously, resulting in more uniform and efficient heating and effectively improving the taste of the food. Furthermore, the upper and lower baking trays are identical, which can reduce the production cost and maintenance and replacement costs of the double-sided baking tray.

[0008] Optionally, the first connecting portion protrudes upward from the top surface of the non-metallic sheath, and the second connecting portion is recessed downward from the top surface of the non-metallic sheath. When one baking tray is inverted onto the other, as the two baking trays approach each other axially, the first connecting portion naturally inserts into the second connecting portion to form a plug-and-play connection assembly, eliminating the need for additional operations such as locking or loosening the connection assembly, thereby improving the convenience of using the double-sided baking tray.

[0009] Optionally, the first connecting portion includes an insertion section and a stop section, the stop section being located above the insertion section and having a radial dimension greater than that of the insertion section. When one baking tray is inverted onto the other, the insertion section and the second connecting portion form a plug-in fit, and the stop section stops on a side of the second connecting portion near the bottom of the metal tray, thereby locking the first connecting portion to the second connecting portion and preventing the first connecting portion from slipping out of the second connecting portion during use, causing the two baking trays to separate from each other.

[0010] Optionally, the second connecting portion includes an insertion section and a receiving section, the receiving section being located below the insertion section and having a radial dimension greater than that of the insertion section. When one baking tray is inverted onto the other, the insertion section and the insertion section form a plug-in fit, and the stop section is accommodated within the receiving section, thereby preventing the first connecting portion from bulging outward from the bottom surface of the non-metallic sheath, thereby improving the appearance and overall integrity of the double-sided baking tray.

[0011] Optionally, the non-metallic sheath includes two symmetrically arranged handles, one of which is provided with the first connecting portion, and the other of which is provided with the second connecting portion. On the one hand, providing each connecting portion on the handles eliminates the need to change the overall shape of the non-metallic sheath, thereby improving the appearance and overall appearance of the baking tray. On the other hand, providing the connecting portion at the handle position where the user holds it allows the user to precisely control the position of each connecting portion and apply external force to each connecting portion to align the first and second connecting portions of the upper and lower baking trays for connection.

[0012] Optionally, at least one section of the top surface of the handle gradually slopes downward in a direction away from the axis of the metal tray. When two baking trays are used to form a double-sided baking tray, a set of handles corresponding to the two baking trays form a large gap at the edge away from the axis of the metal tray, so that a user can easily insert their fingers into the gap to pick up a single baking tray and open the double-sided baking tray, thereby completing the process of taking or placing food.

[0013] Optionally, the baking tray further comprises a non-metallic pad, which is arranged on the outer bottom surface of the metal tray body, and can prevent the bottom of the metal tray body from being scratched or damaged, and can also prevent the metal tray body from directly contacting a supporting surface such as a table top and causing burns or damage.

[0014] Optionally, the first connecting portion is integrally formed with the non-metallic sheath, and the second connecting portion is integrally formed with the non-metallic sheath. This can, on the one hand, reduce the number of components of the bakeware, simplify the overall structure of the bakeware, and lower the production cost of the bakeware. On the other hand, neither the first connecting portion nor the second connecting portion can be separated from the non-metallic sheath, preventing accidents such as the first connecting portion being dropped or lost, thereby improving the user experience of the bakeware.

[0015] Optionally, the non-metallic sheath is made of silicone. On the one hand, the top surface of the non-metallic sheath forms an elastic sealing surface. When two baking trays are combined to form a double-sided baking tray, the top surfaces of the non-metallic sheaths of the two baking trays elastically abut against each other, thereby forming a sealed fit between the two baking trays and preventing liquid leakage when the double-sided baking tray is tilted or turned over. On the other hand, the elastic mating surface formed between the first connecting portion and the second connecting portion increases frictional resistance therebetween, thereby improving the reliability of the connection between the two.

[0016] A second aspect of the present application provides a double-sided baking tray comprising two identical baking trays, each of which is any of the baking trays provided herein; one of the baking trays is inverted onto the other, and the first connecting portion of one of the baking trays is connected to the second connecting portion of the other. The connecting portions of the two baking trays cooperate to form a complete connection assembly, allowing the two baking trays to be combined to form a double-sided baking tray. The upper and lower baking trays heat ingredients simultaneously, achieving more uniform and efficient heating and effectively improving the taste of the food. Furthermore, the upper and lower baking trays are identical, which can reduce the production cost and maintenance and replacement costs of the double-sided baking trays.

[0037] The accompanying drawings, which are incorporated in and constitute a part of this specification, illustrate embodiments consistent with the present application and, together with the description, serve to explain the principles of the present application. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0038] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of this application more clearly understood, the present application is further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain this application and are not intended to limit this application.

[0039] In the description of this application, unless otherwise specified or limited, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and are not to be understood as indicating or implying relative importance; unless otherwise specified or explained, the term "plurality" refers to two or more; the terms "connected" and "fixed" should be understood in a broad sense. For example, "connected" can mean a fixed connection, a detachable connection, an integral connection, or an electrical connection; it can be a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium. For those skilled in the art, the specific meanings of the above terms in this application can be understood according to the specific circumstances.

[0040] In the description of this specification, it should be understood that the directional words such as "upper" and "lower" described in the embodiments of the present application are described from the perspectives shown in the accompanying drawings and should not be understood as limiting the embodiments of the present application. In addition, in the context, it should be understood that when it is mentioned that an element is connected to another element "on" or "under", it can not only be directly connected to the other element "on" or "under", but also indirectly connected to the other element "on" or "under" through an intermediate element.

[0041] like Figures 1-4 As shown, an embodiment of the present application provides a double-sided baking tray, which includes two baking trays 10, one of which is inverted on top of the other baking tray 10. That is, the lower baking tray 10 is in an upright position with its opening facing upward, while the upper baking tray 10 is in an inverted position with its opening facing downward. The two baking trays 10 are connected to each other by a connecting assembly, thereby forming a cavity for accommodating food between the upper and lower baking trays 10. The upper and lower baking trays 10 heat the food contained in the cavity simultaneously, making heating more uniform and efficient, and effectively improving the taste of the food.

[0042] Specifically, the connection assembly includes but is not limited to a positioning assembly, a latch assembly, a snap assembly or a threaded assembly, etc., as long as it can improve the stability of the connection between the two baking trays 10 and reduce or avoid relative movement between the two baking trays 10.

[0043] It should be noted that in each embodiment of the present application, the various parts of the baking tray 10 are described in detail by taking the baking tray 10 placed upright as an example. That is, the top surface or the upper side refers to the side where the mouth of the baking tray 10 is located when the baking tray 10 is placed upright, and the bottom surface or the lower side refers to the side where the bottom of the baking tray 10 is located when the baking tray 10 is placed upright.

[0044] Furthermore, the baking tray 10 includes a metal tray body 1 and a non-metallic sheath 2. The metal tray body 1 forms the main structure of the baking tray 10 and is used to hold the food to be baked. The non-metallic sheath 2 is sleeved on the edge of the mouth of the metal tray body 1 to form a non-metallic annular edge of the baking tray 10, preventing the baking tray 10 from forming metal contact in the microwave oven and causing sparks, so that the baking tray 10 can be used safely in the microwave oven. The non-metallic sheath 2 is symmetrically provided with a first connecting portion 21 and a second connecting portion 22 on both sides. The first connecting portion 21 and the second connecting portion 22 are two matching parts of a connecting assembly. That is, the two parts of the connecting assembly are respectively provided on both sides of the same baking tray 10, rather than being provided on two baking trays 10 respectively, so that the two identical baking trays 10 cooperate with each other to form a complete connecting assembly. That is, the upper and lower baking trays 10 of the double-sided baking tray are exactly the same, thereby reducing the production cost and maintenance and replacement cost of the double-sided baking tray.

[0045] Specifically, the metal pan 1 can be made of any suitable material, such as aluminum or carbon steel. The metal baking pan 10 is formed using a deep drawing process, resulting in low production costs. The inner bottom surface of the metal pan 1 can be provided with ribs 11, which not only increase the structural strength of the metal pan 1 and prevent deformation, but also increase the contact area between the food and the metal pan 1, thereby improving the cooking effect.

[0046] A portion of the non-metallic sheath 2 covers the outer periphery of the opening of the metal pan 1 to prevent metallic contact between the metal pan 1 and the inner wall of the microwave oven, allowing safe use of the single baking tray 10 in the microwave oven. Another portion of the non-metallic sheath 2 covers the top surface of the opening of the metal pan 1 to prevent metallic contact between the upper and lower baking trays 10, ensuring that the double-sided baking tray composed of two baking trays 10 can be safely used in the microwave oven.

[0047] Furthermore, the non-metallic sheath 2 is made of a heat-insulating material, allowing the user to grasp the baking tray 10 by gripping it, preventing burns and other accidents during handling. The non-metallic sheath 2 is attached to the edge of the metal tray 1 by a non-detachable method such as bonding or injection molding to ensure a secure connection between the non-metallic sheath 2 and the metal tray 1, preventing the non-metallic sheath 2 from loosening or falling off, which could affect the user's ability to grasp the baking tray 10.

[0048] Furthermore, the first connecting portion 21 is integrally formed with the non-metallic sheath 2, and the second connecting portion 22 is integrally formed with the non-metallic sheath 2. This reduces the number of components in the baking tray 10, simplifies the overall structure of the baking tray 10, and reduces the production cost of the baking tray 10. Furthermore, the first connecting portion 21 and the second connecting portion 22 cannot be separated from the non-metallic sheath 2, preventing accidents such as the first connecting portion 21 or the second connecting portion 22 from being dropped or lost, thereby improving the user experience of the baking tray 10.

[0049] Furthermore, the non-metallic sheath 2 is made of silicone material, which makes the non-metallic sheath 2 as a whole have a certain degree of elasticity and can adapt to high-temperature cooking environments. On the one hand, the top surface of the non-metallic sheath 2 forms an elastic sealing surface. When two baking trays 10 are combined to form a double-sided baking tray, the top surfaces of the non-metallic sheaths 2 of the two baking trays 10 elastically press against each other, thereby forming a sealed fit between the two baking trays 10 and preventing liquid leakage when the double-sided baking tray is tilted or turned over. On the other hand, an elastic fitting surface is formed between the first connecting portion 21 and the second connecting portion 22, which increases the friction resistance between the two, thereby improving the reliability of the mutual connection between the two. It is understandable that the non-metallic sheath 2 can also be made of other flexible materials.

[0050] Furthermore, the first connecting portion 21 protrudes upward from the top surface of the non-metallic sheath 2, that is, the first connecting portion 21 is a shaft-like structure protruding from the top surface of the non-metallic sheath 2; the second connecting portion 22 is recessed downward from the top surface of the non-metallic sheath 2, that is, the second connecting portion 22 is a groove structure or a through-hole structure provided on the top surface of the non-metallic sheath 2. When one baking tray 10 is inverted onto the other baking tray 10, as the two baking trays 10 approach each other axially, the first connecting portion 21 naturally inserts into the second connecting portion 22 to form a plug-and-play connection assembly, eliminating the need for additional operations such as locking or loosening the connection assembly, thereby improving the convenience of using the double-sided baking tray.

[0051] Furthermore, the first connecting portion 21 includes an insertion section 211 and a stop section 212. The stop section 212 is located above the insertion section 211 and has a larger radial dimension than the insertion section 211. When one baking tray 10 is inverted onto the other baking tray 10, the insertion section 211 and the second connecting portion 22 form a plug-in fit, and the stop section 212 stops on the side of the second connecting portion 22 near the bottom of the metal tray body 1, thereby locking the first connecting portion 21 to the second connecting portion 22, preventing the first connecting portion 21 from slipping out of the second connecting portion 22 during use, causing the two baking trays 10 to separate from each other.

[0052] Furthermore, the second connecting portion 22 includes an insertion section 221 and a receiving section 222. The receiving section 222 is located below the insertion section 221 and has a larger radial dimension than the insertion section 221. When one baking tray 10 is inverted onto the other baking tray 10, the insertion section 211 and the insertion section 221 form a plug-in fit, and the stop section 212 is accommodated in the receiving section 222. This prevents the first connecting portion 21 from protruding from the bottom surface of the non-metallic sheath 2, thereby improving the appearance and overall integrity of the double-sided baking tray.

[0053] Specifically, the radial dimension of the stop segment 212 is greater than the radial dimension of the insertion hole segment 221, and at least one of the stop segment 212 or the insertion hole segment 221 has radial elasticity. When the first connecting portion 21 is inserted into the second connecting portion 22, the stop segment 212 first contacts and abuts against the top of the insertion hole segment 221, causing the stop segment 212 to contract radially or the insertion hole segment 221 to expand radially, thereby allowing the stop segment 212 to pass through the insertion hole segment 221. After the stop segment 212 passes through the insertion hole segment 221, the stop segment 212 expands radially or the insertion hole segment 221 contracts radially, causing the stop segment 212 to stop below the insertion hole segment 221, and the first connecting portion 21 and the second connecting portion 22 remain connected.

[0054] Furthermore, the first connecting part 21 is provided with a hollow structure 213, which is recessed inward from the top surface of the raised structure. That is, the hollow structure 213 is formed at least in the stop section 212 to reduce the deformation resistance of the specified section and increase the radial expansion and contraction range of the stop section 212, thereby making the combination or disassembly of the first connecting part 21 and the second connecting part 22 more labor-saving.

[0055] Furthermore, the non-metallic sheath 2 includes two symmetrically arranged handles 23. These handles 23 protrude radially from the edge of the non-metallic sheath 2, increasing the grip area and further enhancing the user's ease of handling the bakeware 10. The handles 23 are integrally formed with the non-metallic sheath 2 and are configured as a plate-like structure extending radially from the metal sheath 1, simplifying the overall structure of the non-metallic sheath 2 and improving its integrity. It is understood that the handles 23 may also be configured in any other suitable configuration.

[0056] Furthermore, one handle 23 is provided with a first connecting portion 21, and the other handle 23 is provided with a second connecting portion 22. On the one hand, positioning each connecting portion on the handle 23 eliminates the need to change the overall appearance of the non-metallic sheath 2, thereby improving the appearance and overall integrity of the baking tray 10. On the other hand, positioning the connecting portion at the position of the handle 23 where the user grasps it allows the user to precisely control the position of each connecting portion and apply external force to each connecting portion, thereby aligning the first connecting portion 21 and the second connecting portion 22 of the upper and lower baking trays 10 for connection. It is understood that the first connecting portion 21 and the second connecting portion 22 may also be positioned elsewhere on the non-metallic sheath 2, for example, in the area between the two handles 23.

[0057] Furthermore, at least one section of the top surface of the handle 23 gradually slopes downward in a direction away from the axis of the metal pan 1. When two baking trays 10 are used to form a double-sided baking tray, the upper and lower corresponding handles 23 of the two baking trays 10 form a large gap L at the edge away from the axis of the metal pan 1. This allows the user to easily insert their fingers into the gap L, pick up a single baking tray 10, and open the double-sided baking tray, thereby completing the process of taking or placing food.

[0058] Furthermore, baking pan 10 includes a non-metallic pad 3, which is positioned on the outer bottom surface of metal pan body 1. Made of pressed silicone, this pad protects the bottom of metal pan body 1 from scratches and other damage, as well as from burns caused by direct contact with a tabletop or other support surface. Non-metallic pad 3 may have raised feet 31 protruding from the bottom. These feet 31 contact the support surface, further reducing the contact area between baking pan 10 and the support surface, thus preventing burns and other damage to the support surface.

[0059] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present application and is not intended to limit the present application. Various modifications and variations are possible for those skilled in the art. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, or improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present application shall be included within the scope of protection of the present application.
