[0034] The present invention is further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments:
[0035] See also Figures 1-9 A cookware with a foldable handle includes a pot body 1, a handle unit 2, a positioning member 3, a limiting member 4 and an elastic unit 5.
[0036] The pot body 1 may be any of the common pot bodies in the prior art, such as a frying pan, a wok, or a frying pan.
[0037] The positioning member 3 is fixedly mounted on the pot body 1, such as being mounted on the upper portion of the outer wall of the pot body 1. In this embodiment, Figure 6 As shown, the positioning member 3 includes a first portion 31 fixedly mounted on the pot body 1 and a second portion 32 fixedly connected to the first portion 31, wherein the shape of the inner wall of the first portion 31 is adapted to the shape of the pot body 1 so that it can fit on the outer wall of the pot body 1; the upper part of the second portion 32 can exceed the upper edge of the pot body 1, so that after the handle unit 2 is installed, the user can use it more labor-saving, and at the same time, the handle unit can be flipped to the top of the bottom surface of the pot body.
[0038] Furthermore, the second portion 32 of the positioning member 3 includes an opening groove 33, the upper portion of the opening groove 33 is a positioning wall 34, the left and right portions of the opening groove 33 are a left limiting wall 35 and a right limiting wall 36, and the outer end of the limiting member 4 cooperates with the opening groove 33, wherein the positioning wall 34 cooperates with the outer end of the limiting member 4 to prevent the handle unit 2 from flipping upwards, at which time the handle unit 2 is in an unfolded state for normal use by the user; and the left limiting wall 35 and the right limiting wall 36 help to laterally limit the limiting member 4 so that the handle unit 2 is more stable when in a locked state.
[0039] For the handle unit 2, its front end opening 21 includes a accommodating cavity 22 connected to the opening 21, and the limit member 4 is slidably set at the accommodating cavity 22. In this embodiment, the front end opening of the handle unit 2 has two extension walls 23 arranged on the left and right, and the spacing between the two extension walls 23 is adapted to the width of the upper part of the second part 32 of the positioning member 3, so that the front end opening 21 of the handle unit 2 can accommodate the upper part of the second part 32 of the positioning member 3, and the two extension walls 23 of the handle unit 2 are connected to the upper part of the second part 32 of the positioning member 3 by fasteners or pins, so that the handle unit 2 is rotatably set on the positioning member 3, and the handle unit 2 can be flipped up to the top of the bottom surface of the pot body 1, thereby realizing the folding and storage of the handle unit 2.
[0040] In this embodiment, the bottom surface of the handle unit 2 is also provided with a movable opening 24 connected to the accommodating cavity 22. The operating part 41 of the limiter 4 is arranged at the movable opening 24 and exposed to the handle unit 2. The setting of the operating part 41 makes it easier for the user to move the limiter 4.
[0041] In order to ensure that the handle unit 2 can be firmly locked when it is in the unfolded state of use, in this embodiment, an elastic unit 5 is further provided in the accommodating cavity 22. The elastic unit 5 abuts against the limiting member 4 to provide it with a thrust toward the pot body, so that the outer end of the limiting member 4 can be reliably stayed in the opening groove 33, and the matching relationship between the limiting member 4 and the positioning wall 34 is more stable and reliable.
[0042] As one of the embodiments, a mounting member 6 is further provided in the accommodating cavity 22, and the mounting member 6 is arranged above the limiting member 4. A accommodating groove 61 is provided on the mounting member 6, and the accommodating groove 61 includes a first positioning head 62. Correspondingly, the inner end of the limiting member 4 includes a second positioning head 42. One end of the elastic unit 5 is mounted on the first positioning head 62 to form the end positioning; the other end of the elastic unit 5 is mounted on the second positioning head 42 to form the end positioning. As one of the options, the elastic unit 5 is a spring.
[0043] The first positioning head 62 can be placed in the receiving groove 61 and higher than the second positioning head 42 , or can be extended downward to enter the horizontal plane of the limiting member 4 so as to be on the same horizontal plane as the second positioning head 42 .
[0044] In this embodiment, a longitudinally arranged connecting column 7 is further configured in the accommodating cavity 22. Correspondingly, the limiting member 4 includes a first hole 43 sleeved on the connecting column 7, and the mounting member 6 includes a second hole 63 sleeved on the connecting column 7, wherein the width of the first hole 43 is greater than the width (outer diameter) of the connecting column 7, and the width of the first hole 43 must at least ensure the space required for the lateral movement of the limiting member 4. The space required for the lateral movement of the limiting member 4 refers to: the position where the outer end of the limiting member 4 enters the opening groove 33 and effectively cooperates with the positioning wall 34, until the limiting member 4 is withdrawn from the opening groove 33 as a whole. As one of the implementation methods, the space required for the lateral movement of the limiting member 4 is the width from the outer end to the inner end of the positioning wall 34.
[0045] The diameter of the second hole 63 may be adapted to or larger than the width of the connecting pillar 7 .
[0046] In this embodiment, a limit block 8 for limiting the movable range of the limit member 4 is also provided at the movable opening 24. The limit block 8 is arranged below the limit member 4. A longitudinally arranged threaded hole 71 is provided on the bottom surface of the connecting column 7. A fastener 81 threadedly engaged with the threaded hole 71 is installed on the limit block 8. The limit block 8 is positioned on the handle unit 2 through the engagement of the fastener 81 with the threaded hole 71.
[0047] Furthermore, a filling piece 9 is arranged between the limiting block 8 and the limiting piece 4. The filling piece 9 includes a third hole 91 for the fastener 81 and the connecting column 7 to pass through, and a number of limiting arc pieces 92 for cooperating with the connecting column 7 are arranged around the third hole 91. The curvature of the limiting arc piece can be adapted to the shape of the outer wall of the connecting column. The limiting arc piece can be an integral annular cylindrical component or a plurality of separated arc-shaped components.
[0048] When the handle unit 2 is in the unfolded state and no external force acts on the limiting member 4, the limiting member 4 is acted upon by the elastic unit 5, and its outer end is pushed to the bottom of the positioning wall 34. When the user is in use, the handle unit 2 only has the force to flip upward, so the positioning wall 34 can be used to effectively limit the handle unit 2; and when the handle unit 2 needs to be folded, the limiting member 4 is pulled outward so that its outer end leaves the positioning wall 34, and the handle unit 2 can be flipped upward and folded for storage.
[0049] The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention, rather than to limit the same. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the aforementioned embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that the technical solutions described in the aforementioned embodiments can still be modified, or some of the technical features thereof can be replaced by equivalents. However, these modifications or replacements do not deviate the essence of the corresponding technical solutions from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the various embodiments of the present invention.
