Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of cooking containers, and in particular to a cooking container. Background Art

[0002] A cooking container includes a container body and a handle. The handle is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the container body so that a user can stably hold the container body by the handle. However, cooking containers are typically shipped in a fully assembled finished form, which requires a large amount of packaging materials and storage space, resulting in high transportation costs. Consequently, existing cooking containers are inconvenient to transport and store. Utility Model Content

[0003] In view of this, the present application provides a cooking container to solve the technical problem in the prior art that cooking containers are inconvenient to transport and store.

[0004] The present application provides a cooking container, comprising a container body, a handle body, and an operating member. The container body is provided with a handle base, and the handle base is provided with a slot; the handle body comprises a main body portion and a mating portion, and the mating portion is movable relative to the main body portion or deformable relative to the main body portion; the operating member is mounted on the handle base and is movable relative to the handle base along the height direction of the cooking container so that the operating member is in a first state or a second state. The operating member comprises a limiting portion, and in the first state, the limiting portion abuts against the mating portion to restrict the mating portion from disengaging from the slot; in the second state, the limiting portion releases its abutment against the mating portion to allow the mating portion to disengage from the slot.

[0005] In the embodiment of the present application, when the operating member is in the first state, the matching portion of the handle body abuts against the limiting portion of the operating member and engages with the slot of the handle base, so that the handle body is in the unfolded state. At this time, the user can lift the container body by the handle body, reducing the possibility of direct contact between the hand and the container body, and improving the safety when carrying the cooking container; when the operating member is in the second state, the matching portion of the handle body is released from the abutment against the limiting portion of the operating member. At this time, the user can drive the matching portion to move or deform relative to the main body to release the engagement between the matching portion and the slot of the handle base, thereby putting the handle body in the unlocked state, and then allowing the user to drive the handle body to move relative to the handle base to switch the handle body from the unfolded state to the folded state, reducing the volume of the cooking container and reducing the space occupied by the cooking container during transportation or storage, which is conducive to reducing transportation costs and improving space utilization of the storage space.

[0006] In a possible implementation, the main body is elastically deformable, and during the elastic deformation of the main body, the matching portion can be driven to move, so that the matching portion is engaged with or disengaged from the slot.

[0007] In the embodiment of the present application, the mating portion is capable of synchronous movement during the elastic deformation of the main body, allowing the user to control the mating relationship between the mating portion and the slot through the main body, thereby improving the user experience during use. Furthermore, the elastic deformation of the main body is simple to operate and easy to implement. When the handle is in the extended state, the operating member can reduce the possibility of the main body undergoing random elastic deformation, thereby further improving the stability and reliability of the connection between the handle and the handle base.

[0008] In a possible embodiment, both ends of the main body are connected to the matching parts, and during the elastic deformation of the main body, the two matching parts can approach or move away from each other; in the first state, the limiting part is located between the two matching parts and abuts against the two matching parts.

[0009] In the embodiment of the present application, when the operating member is in a first state, the handle is in an unfolded state, and the limiting portion abuts against the mating portion on both sides along the circumference of the cooking container, thereby reducing the possibility of the two mating portions moving toward each other along the circumference of the cooking container under the action of an external force. This allows the mating portions to remain engaged with the slots, thereby improving the stability and reliability of the connection between the handle and the handle base, reducing the possibility of the mating portion and the slot being disengaged due to accidental touch by a user, and thus ensuring the safety of the user when carrying the cooking container. When the operating member is in a second state, the handle is in an unlocked state, and the limiting portion disengages from the mating portion on both sides along the circumference of the cooking container. At this time, when an external force is applied to the main body, the main body can elastically deform inwardly along the circumference of the cooking container, driving the two mating portions to move toward each other along the circumference of the cooking container, thereby allowing the mating portions to disengage from the slots for subsequent switching to the folded state.

[0010] In a possible implementation, the operating member further includes a connecting rod connected to the limiting portion, the cross-sectional area of ​​the connecting rod is smaller than the cross-sectional area of ​​the limiting portion, and in the second state, the connecting rod is located between the two matching portions.

[0011] In the embodiment of the present application, by providing a size difference between the stopper and the connecting rod, when the user drives the operating member to move along the height direction of the cooking container, the stopper and the connecting rod can be sequentially positioned between the two mating portions, thereby positioning the operating member in either the first or second state, thereby placing the handle in either the unfolded or unlocked state. The stopper and the connecting rod have a simple structure and are easy to manufacture, which helps simplify the structure of the operating member and reduces the difficulty of its design.

[0012] In a possible embodiment, the operating member further includes an operating portion, which is connected to one end of the connecting rod away from the limiting portion. The cooking container further includes an elastic member, one end of which is connected to the operating portion and the other end is connected to the handle base along the height direction of the cooking container.

[0013] In an embodiment of the present application, the operating member further includes an operating portion connected to the end of the connecting rod distal from the limiting portion. This allows a user to press the operating portion to drive the operating member within the mounting hole relative to the handle base along the height of the cooking container, thereby improving user convenience in actuating the operating member. The operating portion has a larger cross-sectional area than the mounting hole to limit movement of the operating member along the height of the cooking container. Specifically, during movement of the operating member from the first state to the second state, the operating portion abuts against the upper surface of the handle base, reducing the likelihood of the operating member detaching from the handle base and improving the stability and reliability of the connection between the operating member and the handle base.

[0014] The cooking container also includes an elastic member that is sleeved onto the outer wall of the connecting rod. One end of the elastic member is connected to the operating portion, and the other end is connected to the handle base along the height of the cooking container, so that the operating member can automatically return to its original position. Specifically, during movement of the operating member from the first state to the second state, the operating member moves downward along the height of the cooking container under the action of an external force and stops when the stopper and the engaging portion are disengaged. At this point, the operating member and the handle base compress the elastic member along the height of the cooking container, causing the elastic member to contract under pressure. Alternatively, a user can drive the handle body relative to the handle base until the handle body is aligned along the height of the cooking container, thereby releasing the external force applied to the operating member after the handle body is folded. At this point, the elastic member releases its rebound force, driving the operating member upward along the height of the cooking container and stopping when the stopper abuts the inner wall of the handle base, thereby automatically returning the operating member to its original position.

[0015] Therefore, in this embodiment, the provision of the operating portion and the elastic member not only facilitates pressing but also enables automatic resetting, thereby improving the user's pressing feel and the working reliability of the operating member.

[0016] In a possible implementation manner, the main body portion is a U-shaped rod-shaped structure, and the main body portion and the matching portion are integrally formed.

[0017] In this embodiment, the U-shaped body has a cavity. This cavity not only provides space for the body's elastic deformation but also reduces the amount of material required to produce the body, lowering production costs and reducing the weight of the body, thereby achieving a lightweight cooking vessel. Furthermore, the rod-shaped body is easier for the user to grip, improving the user's grip. The body and mating portion can be integrally formed, which improves the structural stability of the handle and reduces the likelihood of separation. This integral molding method also simplifies the production process for the handle, shortening production cycles and improving production efficiency.

[0018] In a possible implementation manner, the slot is an arc-shaped structure, and a central angle θ of the slot satisfies 180°≤θ≤270°.

[0019] In an embodiment of the present application, when the central angle of the card slot satisfies 180°≤θ≤270°, the contact area between the card slot and the mating part is moderate, and the opening size of the card slot is moderate. The user does not need to apply a large external force to the handle body to engage the mating part with the card slot, so that the handle body can remain in the expanded state. At the same time, the card slot can effectively limit the mating part to improve the stability and reliability of the connection between the handle body and the handle base.

[0020] In a possible embodiment, the handle base is further provided with a guide section connected to the slot, and the guide section extends along the height direction of the cooking container.

[0021] In the embodiment of the present application, when the mating part is located in the guide section, it is only necessary to apply an upward or downward external force to the mating part to rotate it, so that the handle body can be placed in a folded state or an unfolded state, thereby making the switching of the working state of the handle body more convenient. The guide section can also improve the convenience of the mating part during movement, reduce the possibility of damage to the components when the user operates with force, thereby avoiding large wear between the handle body and the handle seat, and extending the service life of both.

[0022] In a possible embodiment, the handle base includes a main body, and the operating member is installed on the main body. In the first state, the mating portion abuts against the inner wall of the main body along the height direction of the cooking container, and abuts against the side wall of the slot along the height direction of the cooking container.

[0023] In an embodiment of the present application, the main body is provided with a mounting hole, the operating member is mounted on the main body through the mounting hole, and can move relative to the main body along the height direction of the cooking container so that the operating member can be in the first state or the second state.

[0024] When the operating member is in the first position, the handle is in an extended position and arranged radially along the cooking container. Specifically, the main portion of the handle extends radially outward relative to the mating portion, thereby increasing the contact area of ​​the handle and improving stability when the user grips the handle. A portion of the mating portion, along the height of the cooking container, is located within the slot and abuts against the sidewalls of the slot to limit movement of the mating portion along the height of the cooking container. This slot not only reduces the possibility of the mating portion disengaging from the slot and causing the container to shake when the user is carrying the cooking container, thereby improving safety during transportation, but also reduces the possibility of the mating portion disengaging from the handle base due to a shift in the center of gravity of the handle, thereby improving stability in the extended position. Furthermore, another portion of the mating portion abuts against the inner wall of the main portion along the height of the cooking container to limit upward movement of the mating portion. If the mating portion disengages from the slot due to wear or other factors during transportation, the main portion can prevent the mating portion from disengaging from the handle base, further improving safety during transportation.

[0025] In one possible embodiment, there is a accommodating space between the main body and the outer wall of the container body. In the second state, the handle body can be rotated relative to the main body to be arranged along the height direction of the cooking container, so that at least part of the structure of the main body is accommodated in the accommodating space, and the end of the main body facing away from the mating portion abuts against the operating member.

[0026] In the embodiment of the present application, when the handle is switched from the unlocked state to the folded state, the user can drive the handle to rotate upward about the main body along the height direction of the cooking container, so that the engaging portion disengages the slot, and the handle stops when the main body is arranged along the height direction of the cooking container. At this time, at least a portion of the main body is located within the storage space, and the user can remove the external force applied to the handle, allowing the handle to move downward along the height direction of the cooking container under the action of gravity until the end of the main body facing away from the engaging portion abuts the operating member along the height direction of the cooking container, thereby folding the handle, thereby reducing the volume of the cooking container and improving the space utilization of the storage space.

[0054] In order to better understand the technical solution of the present application, the embodiments of the present application are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0055] It should be clear that the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of this application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in this application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative work are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0056] The terms used in the embodiments of the present application are for the purpose of describing specific embodiments only and are not intended to limit the present application. The singular forms "a", "an", "the" and "the" used in the embodiments of the present application and the appended claims are also intended to include plural forms unless the context clearly indicates otherwise.

[0057] It should be understood that the term "and / or" as used herein simply describes a relationship between associated objects, indicating that three possible relationships exist. For example, "A and / or B" can represent: A alone, A and B together, or B alone. Furthermore, the character " / " in this document generally indicates an "or" relationship between the associated objects.

[0058] The embodiment of the present application provides a cooking container, such as Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the cooking container includes a container body 1 and a handle body 3. A handle base 2 is provided on the outer wall of the container body 1. The handle base 2 can be fixedly connected to the container body 1 by welding or other means, or can be detachably connected to the container body 1 by fasteners. The handle body 3 is movably connected to the handle base 2. The user can drive the handle body 3 to move relative to the handle base 2, so that the handle body 3 is in an unfolded state or a folded state, so as to facilitate carrying or storing the cooking container.

[0059] Specifically, when the cooking container is in the unfolded state (eg Figure 1As shown in FIG, the handle 3 is arranged along the radial direction of the cooking container so that the user can lift the container body 1 by the handle 3, thereby reducing the possibility of direct contact between the hand and the container body 1 and improving the safety when carrying the cooking container. Figure 8 As shown in the figure, the handle 3 is arranged along the height direction of the cooking container to reduce the volume of the cooking container, thereby reducing the space occupied by the cooking container during transportation or storage, which is beneficial to reducing transportation costs and improving space utilization of the storage space.

[0060] The handle base 2 is provided with a latching slot 21. When the handle body 3 is in the expanded state, the latching slot 21 is used to accommodate at least a portion of the handle body 3 and restrict movement of the handle body 3, thereby improving the stability and reliability of the connection between the handle body 3 and the handle base 2 in the expanded state, and enhancing safety for users when carrying the cooking container. The handle body 3 includes a main body 31 and a mating portion 32. The mating portion 32 is movable or deformable relative to the main body 31. When the handle body 3 is in the expanded state, at least a portion of the mating portion 32 is located within the latching slot 21 and engages with the mating portion 21. When the handle body 3 is switched from the expanded state to the folded state, the user can apply an external force to the mating portion 32, causing the mating portion 32 to move or deform relative to the main body 31, thereby releasing the mating portion 32 from the latching slot 21, thereby allowing the handle body 3 to move relative to the handle base 2, thereby switching the handle body 3 from the expanded state to the folded state.

[0061] At the same time, the handle base 2 is also provided with a mounting hole 231, and the cooking container further includes an operating member 4, which is mounted in the mounting hole 231 of the handle base 2 and can move relative to the handle base 2 along the height direction of the cooking container so that the operating member 4 is in a first state or a second state. The operating member 4 includes a limiting portion 41, which can be used to limit the matching portion 32 from being separated from the slot 21. When the operating member 4 is in the first state, such as Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the limiting portion 41 abuts against the matching portion 32, and at least a portion of the matching portion 32 is located in the card slot 21 and is engaged with the card slot 21, so that the handle body 3 is in the expanded state. At this time, the limiting portion 41 and the card slot 21 are both engaged with the matching portion 32, and the two together limit the movement of the handle body 3 relative to the handle base 2, so that the matching portion 32 cannot be separated from the card slot 21, thereby keeping the handle body 3 in the expanded state; when the operating member 4 is in the second state, as shown Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, the limiting portion 41 is released from the abutment with the matching portion 32, and at least a portion of the matching portion 32 is located in the card slot 21 and is released from the card slot 21, so that the handle body 3 is in an unlocked state. At this time, the limiting portion 41 and the card slot 21 are both released from the matching portion 32, so that the handle body 3 can move relative to the handle base 2, thereby enabling the handle body 3 to switch to a folded state.

[0062] When the handle 3 is in the unfolded state, the user can lift the container body 1 by means of the handle 3, thereby reducing the possibility of direct contact between the hand and the container body 1 and improving the safety when carrying the cooking container; when the operating member 4 is in the second state, the mating portion 32 of the handle 3 is released from the abutment with the limiting portion 41 of the operating member 4, and at this time, the user can drive the mating portion 32 to move or deform relative to the main body 31 to release the engagement of the mating portion 32 with the slot 21 of the handle base 2, thereby putting the handle 3 in the unlocked state, and then the user can drive the handle 3 to move relative to the handle base 2 to switch the handle 3 from the unfolded state to the folded state, thereby reducing the volume of the cooking container and reducing the space occupied by the cooking container during transportation or storage, which is beneficial to reducing transportation costs and improving the space utilization rate of the storage space.

[0063] In a specific embodiment, Figure 1 、 Figure 4 and Figure 6 As shown, the main body portion 31 can be elastically deformed, and during the elastic deformation process, the main body portion 31 can drive the matching portion 32 to move, so that the matching portion 32 is engaged with or disengaged from the slot 21 .

[0064] In the embodiment of the present application, the main body 31 is connected to the matching portion 32. When the operating member 4 is in the first state, the limiting portion 41 of the operating member 4 abuts against the matching portion 32 of the handle body 3. At this time, an external force is applied to the main body 31. Even if the main body 31 is elastically deformed, it cannot drive the matching portion 32 to move. The matching portion 32 is still engaged with the slot 21, which is beneficial to reduce the possibility of the matching portion 32 being disengaged from the slot 21 due to accidental touch by the user, and improves the reliability of the handle body 3 when it is in the unfolded state; when the operating member 4 is in the second state, the limiting portion 41 of the operating member 4 is released from the abutment with the matching portion 32 of the handle body 3. At this time, an external force is applied to the main body 31, and the main body 31 can be elastically deformed, thereby driving the matching portion 32 to move, so that the matching portion 32 can be released from the slot 21, so that the handle body 3 is in the unlocked state.

[0065] Therefore, in this embodiment, the mating portion 32 is capable of synchronous movement during the elastic deformation of the main body 31, allowing the user to control the mating relationship between the mating portion 32 and the slot 21 through the main body 31, thereby improving the user experience during use. Furthermore, the elastic deformation of the main body 31 is simple and easy to operate. When the handle 3 is in the deployed state, the operating member 4 reduces the possibility of the main body 31 undergoing random elastic deformation, further improving the stability and reliability of the connection between the handle 3 and the handle base 2.

[0066] In a specific embodiment, Figure 3 As shown, the main body portion 31 is a U-shaped rod-shaped structure, and the main body portion 31 and the matching portion 32 are integrally formed.

[0067] In the embodiment of the present application, the U-shaped structure main body 31 has a cavity, which not only provides an accommodation space for the elastic deformation of the main body 31, but also reduces the input amount of production materials for the main body 31, reduces production costs, and reduces the weight of the main body 31, thereby achieving the purpose of lightweighting the cooking container. The rod-shaped structure main body 31 is also convenient for users to hold, which is conducive to improving the user's feel.

[0068] In one possible embodiment, the main body portion 31 and the mating portion 32 can be an integrally molded structure, which is beneficial to improving the structural stability of the handle body 3 and reducing the possibility of separation between the main body portion 31 and the mating portion 32. The integral molding method is also beneficial to simplifying the process flow of the handle body 3 during the production process, which is beneficial to shortening the production cycle and improving production efficiency.

[0069] In a specific embodiment, Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, both ends of the main body 31 are connected to the matching parts 32. During the elastic deformation of the main body 31, the two matching parts 32 can approach each other or move away from each other. When the operating member 4 is in the first state, the limiting part 41 is located between the two matching parts 32 and abuts against the two matching parts 32.

[0070] In the embodiment of the present application, when the operating member 4 is in the first state, the handle 3 is in the unfolded state, and the limiting portions 41 abut against the mating portions 32 on both sides along the circumference of the cooking container. This reduces the possibility of the two mating portions 32 moving toward each other along the circumference of the cooking container under the action of external forces, thereby maintaining the engagement between the mating portions 32 and the latching slot 21. This improves the stability and reliability of the connection between the handle 3 and the handle base 2, reduces the possibility of the mating portions 32 being disengaged from the latching slot 21 due to accidental user contact, and thus ensures the safety of the user when carrying the cooking container. When the operating member 4 is in the second state, the handle 3 is in the unlocked state, and the limiting portions 41 disengage from the mating portions 32 on both sides along the circumference of the cooking container. At this time, when an external force is applied to the body 31, the body 31 elastically deforms inwardly along the circumference of the cooking container, driving the two mating portions 32 to move toward each other along the circumference of the cooking container, thereby releasing the engagement between the mating portions 32 and the latching slot 21, allowing the handle 3 to be subsequently switched to the folded state.

[0071] In a specific embodiment, Figure 6 and Figure 7As shown, the operating member 4 also includes a connecting rod 42 connected to the limiting portion 41. Along the height direction of the cooking container, the cross-sectional area of ​​the connecting rod 42 is smaller than the cross-sectional area of ​​the limiting portion 41. When the operating member 4 is in the second state, the connecting rod 42 is located between the two matching portions 32.

[0072] In an embodiment of the present application, the connecting rod 42 of the operating member 4 is located in the mounting hole 231 of the handle base 2, and can move relative to the handle base 2 along the height direction of the cooking container so that the operating member 4 is in a first state or a second state, wherein the cross-sectional area of ​​the connecting rod 42 is smaller than the cross-sectional area of ​​the limiting portion 41.

[0073] When the operating member 4 is in the first state, along the circumference of the cooking container, the limiting portion 41 is located between the two matching portions 32 and abuts against the two matching portions 32 to reduce the possibility of the two matching portions 32 approaching each other under the action of external force, so that the matching portion 32 remains engaged with the slot 21.

[0074] When the operating member 4 is in the second state, along the circumference of the cooking container, the connecting rod 42 is located between the two mating portions 32 and there is a gap between the two mating portions 32. The two mating portions 32 can move in a direction toward the connecting rod 42 under the action of an external force so that the mating portions 32 can be disengaged from the slots 21.

[0075] Therefore, in this embodiment, by providing a size difference between the limiting portion 41 and the connecting rod 42, when the user drives the operating member 4 to move along the height direction of the cooking container, the limiting portion 41 and the connecting rod 42 can be sequentially positioned between the two mating portions 32, thereby enabling the operating member 4 to be in the first state or the second state, thereby placing the handle 3 in the unfolded state or the unlocked state. The limiting portion 41 and the connecting rod 42 have a simple structure and are easy to manufacture, which helps simplify the structure of the operating member 4 and reduce the design difficulty of the operating member 4.

[0076] In one possible embodiment, a contact surface (not shown in the figure) is provided on one end of the mating portion 32 toward the operating member 4 along the circumference of the cooking container, and the surface of the contact surface is flat, so that there is a larger contact area between the mating portion 32 and the limiting portion 41, which is beneficial to improving the contact effect between the two, improving the stability of the handle body 3 in the unfolded state, preventing the operating member 4 from shaking, and avoiding large wear between the limiting portion 41 and the mating portion 32.

[0077] Furthermore, a guide surface (not shown) is provided on one end of the mating portion 32, facing the operating member 4, along the circumference of the cooking container. This guide surface can be located below the contact surface along the height of the cooking container and be inclined relative to the contact surface. This guide surface provides guidance, improving ease of use and making operation easier for the user. It also prevents damage to the mating portion 32 during the switching of the operating member 4 from the second state to the first state, thereby improving the stability of the operating member 4 during movement.

[0078] In a specific embodiment, Figure 3 As shown, the operating member 4 also includes an operating portion 43, which is connected to one end of the connecting rod 42 away from the limiting portion 41. The cooking container also includes an elastic member 5, which is sleeved on the outer wall of the connecting rod 42, and along the height direction of the cooking container, one end of the elastic member 5 is connected to the operating portion 43, and the other end is connected to the handle base 2.

[0079] In an embodiment of the present application, the operating member 4 also includes an operating portion 43, which is connected to one end of the connecting rod 42 away from the limiting portion 41, so that the user can drive the operating member 4 to move in the mounting hole 231 relative to the handle base 2 along the height direction of the cooking container by pressing the operating portion 43, thereby improving the convenience of the user driving the operating member 4 to move.

[0080] The cross-sectional area of ​​the operating portion 43 is larger than the cross-sectional area of ​​the mounting hole 231 , so as to limit the movement of the operating member 4 along the height direction of the cooking container.

[0081] Specifically, during the movement of the operating member 4 from the first state to the second state, the operating portion 43 can abut against the upper surface of the handle base 2 to reduce the possibility of the operating member 4 detaching from the handle base 2 and improve the stability and reliability of the connection between the operating member 4 and the handle base 2.

[0082] At the same time, the cooking container also includes an elastic member 5, which is sleeved on the outer wall of the connecting rod 42, and along the height direction of the cooking container, one end of the elastic member 5 is connected to the operating part 43, and the other end of the elastic member 5 is connected to the handle base 2, so that the operating member 4 can be automatically reset.

[0083] Specifically, during the process of the operating member 4 moving from the first state to the second state, the operating member 4 moves downward along the height direction of the cooking container under the action of external force, and stops after the limiting portion 41 and the matching portion 32 are disengaged. At this time, the operating portion 43 and the handle base 2 squeeze the elastic member 5 along the height direction of the cooking container, causing the elastic member 5 to be compressed and contracted.

[0084] In addition, the user can drive the handle body 3 to move relative to the handle base 2 until the handle body 3 is arranged along the height direction of the cooking container, so that the handle body 3 is in a folded state and the external force applied to the operating member 4 is withdrawn. At this time, the elastic member 5 can release the rebound force to drive the operating member 4 to move upward along the height direction of the cooking container, and stop after moving until the limiting portion 41 abuts against the inner wall of the handle base 2, thereby realizing automatic resetting of the operating member 4.

[0085] Therefore, in this embodiment, the operation portion 43 and the elastic member 5 are provided, which not only facilitates pressing but also enables automatic resetting, thereby improving the user's pressing feel and enhancing the working reliability of the operation member 4 .

[0086] In a specific embodiment, Figure 2 As shown, the slot 21 is an arc-shaped structure, and the central angle θ of the slot 21 satisfies 180°≤θ≤270°.

[0087] In an embodiment of the present application, when the connecting member 4 is in the first state, at least a portion of the mating portion 32 is located in the arc-shaped slot 21. The arc-shaped slot 21 can clamp the mating portion 32 along the height direction of the cooking container to improve the stability and reliability of the connection between the two.

[0088] The central angle of the slot 21 is θ, and θ can specifically be 180°, 190°, 200°, 210°, 220°, 230°, 240°, 250°, 260°, 270°, etc.

[0089] When the central angle of the slot 21 is small (for example, θ is less than 180°), the contact area between the slot 21 and the mating portion 32 is small, and the opening of the slot 21 is large, so that the slot 21 cannot effectively limit the movement of the mating portion 32 in the height direction of the cooking container, causing the mating portion 32 to easily detach from the slot 21.

[0090] When the central angle of the card slot 21 is large (for example, θ is greater than 270°), the contact area between the card slot 21 and the matching portion 32 is large, and the opening of the card slot 21 is small, making it difficult for the matching portion 32 to engage with the card slot 21, resulting in the handle body 3 being unable to be fixed in the unfolded state, and the user is prone to a large degree of shaking when holding the handle body 3.

[0091] Therefore, when the central angle of the slot 21 satisfies 180°≤θ≤270°, the contact area between the slot 21 and the mating portion 32 is moderate, and the opening size of the slot 21 is moderate. The user does not need to apply a large external force to the handle body 3 to engage the mating portion 32 with the slot 21, so that the handle body 3 can be maintained in the expanded state. At the same time, the slot 21 can effectively limit the mating portion 32 to improve the stability and reliability of the connection between the handle body 3 and the handle base 2.

[0092] In a specific embodiment, Figure 2 As shown, the handle base 2 is further provided with a guide section 22 communicated with the slot 21 , and the guide section 22 extends along the height direction of the cooking container.

[0093] In the embodiment of the present application, when the operating member 4 is in the second state, the limiting portion 41 of the operating member 4 is released from the abutment with the matching portion 32 of the handle body 3. At this time, the user can apply external force to the main body 31 to cause the main body 31 to elastically deform and drive the two matching portions 32 to approach each other, so that the matching portion 32 is released from the card slot 21 and moves relative to the main body 31 into the guide section 22, thereby putting the handle body 3 in an unlocked state.

[0094] During the process of switching the handle body 3 from the unlocked state to the folded state, the user can drive the handle body 3 to rotate upward relative to the handle base 2 along the height direction of the cooking container, that is, drive the matching part 32 to move along the guide section 22 toward the outside of the slot 21, so that the matching part 32 disengages from the slot 21, thereby realizing the switching of the handle body 3 from the unlocked state to the folded state.

[0095] During the process of switching the handle body 3 from the folded state to the unfolded state, the user can drive the handle body 3 to rotate downward relative to the handle base 2 along the height direction of the cooking container, that is, drive the matching part 32 to move along the guide section 22 toward the direction inside the slot 21, so that the matching part 32 extends into the slot 21, thereby realizing the switching of the handle body 3 from the folded state to the unfolded state.

[0096] Therefore, in this embodiment, when the matching portion 32 is located in the guide section 22, it is only necessary to apply an upward or downward external force to the matching portion 32 to rotate it, so that the handle body 3 can be placed in a folded state or an unfolded state, thereby making it more convenient to switch the working state of the handle body 3. The guide section 22 can also improve the convenience of the matching portion 32 during movement, reduce the possibility of damage to the components when the user operates with force, thereby avoiding large wear between the handle body 3 and the handle base 2, and extending the service life of both.

[0097] In a specific embodiment, Figure 2 、 Figure 3 、 Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the handle base 2 includes a main body 23, which is provided with the above-mentioned mounting hole 231. The operating member 4 is installed on the main body 23 through the mounting hole 231 and can move relative to the main body 23 along the height direction of the cooking container so that the operating member 4 can be in the first state or the second state.

[0098] When the operating member 4 is in the first state, the handle body 3 is in the expanded state, and the handle body 3 is arranged along the radial direction of the cooking container, that is, the main body 31 of the handle body 3 extends radially outward along the cooking container relative to the matching portion 32 to increase the contact area of ​​the handle body 3 and improve the stability of the user when holding the handle body 3.

[0099] Among them, along the height direction of the cooking container, a part of the matching part 32 is located in the slot 21 and abuts against the side wall of the slot 21 to limit the movement of the matching part 32 along the height direction of the cooking container, so that the slot 21 can reduce the possibility of the matching part 32 being separated from the slot 21 and causing the container body 1 to shake when the user is carrying the cooking container, thereby improving the safety during transportation, and can also reduce the possibility of the matching part 32 being separated from the handle base 2 due to the shift of the center of gravity of the handle body 3, thereby improving the stability of the handle body 3 in the unfolded state.

[0100] At the same time, along the height direction of the cooking container, another part of the matching portion 32 abuts against the inner wall of the main body 23 to limit the upward movement of the matching portion 32 along the height direction of the cooking container. When the user is carrying the cooking container, when the matching portion 32 is separated from the slot 21 due to wear or other reasons, the main body 23 can limit the matching portion 32 from being separated from the handle base 2 to further improve the safety during transportation.

[0101] In a specific embodiment, Figure 1 and Figure 8 As shown, there is a receiving space 6 between the main body 23 and the outer wall of the container body 1. When the connecting member 4 is in the second state, the handle body 3 can be rotated relative to the main body 23 to be arranged along the height direction of the cooking container, so that at least part of the structure of the main body 31 is accommodated in the receiving space 6, and the end of the main body 31 facing away from the matching portion 32 abuts against the operating member 4, so that the handle body 3 is in a folded state.

[0102] In the embodiment of the present application, when the handle 3 switches from the unlocked state to the folded state, the user can drive the handle 3 to rotate upward about the main body 23 along the height direction of the cooking container, so that the engaging portion 32 disengages the retaining slot 21. The handle 3 stops rotating when the main body 31 is arranged along the height direction of the cooking container. At this time, at least a portion of the main body 31 is located within the storage space 6. The user can remove the external force applied to the handle 3, allowing the handle 3 to move downward along the height direction of the cooking container under the action of gravity until the end of the main body 31 facing away from the engaging portion 32 abuts the operating member 4 along the height direction of the cooking container, thereby placing the handle 3 in the folded state, thereby reducing the volume of the cooking container and improving the space utilization of the storage space.

[0103] Among them, when the handle body 3 is rotated to the point where the main body 31 is arranged along the height direction of the cooking container, the external force applied to the operating member 4 can also be withdrawn to restore the operating member 4 from the second state to the first state, and when the operating member 4 is in contact with the main body 31, the operating member 4 can support the main body 31, so as to avoid the matching portion 32 from colliding with the table surface during the downward movement of the handle body 3 along the height direction of the cooking container, thereby reducing the possibility of damage to the matching portion 32 and improving the safety of the handle body 3 in the folded state.

[0104] The above describes in detail the structure, features and effects of the present application based on the embodiments shown in the drawings. The above is only a preferred embodiment of the present application, but the present application does not limit the scope of implementation to what is shown in the drawings. Any changes made in accordance with the concept of the present application, or modifications to equivalent embodiments with equivalent changes, which still do not exceed the spirit covered by the description and drawings, should be within the scope of protection of the present application.
