Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of kitchen appliances, and in particular relates to a cooking utensil with a flippable operating screen. Background Art

[0002] Nowadays, people often use electric cooking appliances to cook food. Existing cooking appliances, such as air fryers and ovens, often have an operating screen installed on the appliance to facilitate user operation. This screen allows the user to set parameters such as time, temperature, and cooking mode, and can also display the appliance's operating status. The operating screens on existing cooking appliances are typically fixed to the surface of the appliance. When used in the kitchen, due to differences in height, some users may have difficulty viewing the operating screen or setting parameters. While some existing reversible operating screens offer convenience, the reversible design of these operating screens is relatively complex, making installation inconvenient and manufacturing costs relatively high. Utility Model Content

[0003] The utility model provides a cooking utensil with a flippable operating screen, aiming to solve the problem in the prior art that the flipping structure of the operating screen on the cooking utensil is relatively complicated, resulting in inconvenient installation and relatively high manufacturing cost.

[0004] In order to solve the above technical problems, the technical solution adopted by the present invention is:

[0005] A cooking appliance with a reversible operating screen, comprising:

[0006] The cooking appliance body is provided with a storage slot; and

[0007] An operating screen, wherein one end of the operating screen is a connecting end and the other end is an outward-turning end; the connecting end is rotatably mounted on the cooking appliance body; the operating screen can be turned outward from the storage slot or turned inward into the storage slot by rotating the outward-turning end relative to the storage slot; and

[0008] A damping assembly includes a first damping member arranged on the connecting end, a second damping member arranged on the cooking appliance body, and a locking member for causing the first damping member and the second damping member to produce a damping effect; when the operating screen is flipped out of the storage groove, the operating screen is maintained in the flipped-out state by the damping effect between the first damping member and the second damping member.

[0009] A further solution is that the storage slot is located on the front side of the cooking utensil body, and the outward-turned end turns out of the storage slot from bottom to top and from back to front.

[0010] Based on the above technical solution: the operation screen is arranged on the front side of the cooking appliance body, and is flipped out of the storage slot from bottom to top and from back to front, so that the user can operate and observe the operation screen conveniently.

[0011] A further solution: the second damping member is arranged on the upper side of the bottom wall of the receiving groove, and the front side of the second damping member is provided with an arc-shaped groove, and the rear side of the second damping member is provided with an arc-shaped second damping surface; the connecting end is provided with an arc-shaped rotating portion rotatably arranged in the arc-shaped groove;

[0012] The first damping member is arranged on the rear side of the second damping surface, the locking member is arranged between the first damping member and the connecting end, and the two ends of the locking member are fixedly connected to the first damping member and the connecting end respectively, and the second damping member is provided with a through hole for the locking member to pass through; when the operation screen is flipped out of the storage groove, under the action of the locking member, the first damping member generates a damping effect between itself and the second damping surface to keep the operation screen in the state of being flipped out.

[0013] Based on the above technical solution: the two ends of the locking member are fixedly connected to the first damping member and the connecting end respectively, so that on the one hand the first damping member maintains contact with the second damping surface to generate a damping effect, and on the other hand prevents the operating screen from escaping from the storage slot.

[0014] A further solution is that the first damping member is provided with a first arc-shaped damping surface that matches the second damping surface; under the action of the locking member, the first damping surface produces a damping effect by being attached to the second damping surface.

[0015] Based on the above technical solution: when the operating screen is flipped outward to a certain angle, under the action of the locking part, the first damping surface produces a damping effect by fitting on the second damping surface, that is, the friction resistance between the first damping surface and the second damping surface prevents the first damping surface from sliding relative to the second damping surface, thereby keeping the operating screen in the flipped-out state.

[0016] A further solution: a recessed portion that is recessed backward and out of contact with the second damping surface is provided on one side of the first damping member close to the second damping surface, and the first damping surface is provided on both left and right sides of the recessed portion.

[0017] Based on the above technical solution: by setting a recessed portion that is out of contact with the second damping surface between the two first damping surfaces, the frictional resistance that needs to be overcome when the first damping member rotates relative to the second damping member is reduced when the operating screen is rotated, thereby extending the service life of the first damping member and the second damping member.

[0018] A further solution: the locking member is a bolt, and the bolt passes through the first damping member and the through hole in sequence from the rear side of the first damping member and is fixedly connected to the connecting end.

[0019] Based on the above technical solution: the locking piece is set as a bolt to facilitate installation.

[0020] A further solution: a threading hole is provided on the second damping member.

[0021] Based on the above technical solution: the wire threading hole is used for passing the wires of the operating screen.

[0022] A further solution is that there are two first damping members, which are respectively located on the left and right sides of the threading hole, and a locking member is provided between each first damping member and the connecting end.

[0023] Based on the above technical solution: the two first damping members are respectively arranged on the left and right sides of the threading hole, which is conducive to maintaining balance when the operating screen rotates.

[0024] A further solution is that the outward-turned end is provided with a pulling portion, and the lower side of the receiving groove is provided with a yield groove for manually pulling the pulling portion.

[0025] Based on the above technical solution: the lever portion facilitates the user to lever the operating screen so that it flips outward from the storage slot.

[0026] A further solution: the pulling part is a bar-shaped block.

[0027] The beneficial effects of the utility model are:

[0028] When the operating screen of the present invention is flipped out of the storage slot, a damping effect is generated between the first damping member and the second damping member under the action of the locking member. The operating screen can be kept in the state when it is flipped out due to the damping effect between the first damping member and the second damping member, which makes it convenient for users to observe the operating screen or set the parameters of cooking utensils on the operating screen; after the operating screen is flipped into the storage slot, it does not take up additional space, which is convenient for packaging; in addition, compared with the existing technology, the flipping structure of the operating screen of the present invention is simpler, easier to install, and lower in cost.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0037] The following will be combined with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0038] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, this embodiment provides a cooking appliance with a reversible operating screen, comprising:

[0039] The cooking appliance body 1 is provided with a storage slot 11; and

[0040] An operating screen 2, wherein one end of the operating screen 2 is a connecting end and the other end is an outward-turning end; the connecting end is rotatably mounted on the cooking appliance body 1; the operating screen 2 can be turned outward from the storage slot 11 or turned inward into the storage slot 11 by rotating the outward-turning end relative to the storage slot 11; and

[0041] A damping assembly includes a first damping member 4 disposed on the connecting end, a second damping member 13 disposed on the cooking appliance body 1, and a locking member 3 for causing the first damping member 4 and the second damping member 13 to produce a damping effect. When the operating screen 2 is flipped out of the storage slot 11, the operating screen 2 is maintained in the outwardly flipped state by the damping effect between the first damping member 4 and the second damping member 13. The damping effect includes the friction between the first damping member 4 and the second damping member 13. When the operating screen 2 remains in the state of being flipped out of the storage slot 11, the operating screen 2 can be flipped back into the storage slot 11 only by applying an external force to the operating screen 2 to overcome the damping effect between the first damping member 4 and the second damping member 13.

[0042] The cooking utensil may be an air fryer, an oven, or the like.

[0043] In some embodiments, the storage slot 11 is located on the front side of the cooking appliance body 1, and the operation panel is preferably flipped so that the outward end flips out of the storage slot 11 from bottom to top and from back to front. After the operation screen 2 is flipped outward at a certain angle, it is convenient for the user to observe the operation screen 2.

[0044] In some specific embodiments, the storage groove 11 can also be arranged on the upper side of the cooking appliance body 1, and the outward-turned end turns out of the storage groove 11 from bottom to top and from back to front.

[0045] In some embodiments, Figures 3 to 5 As shown, the storage groove 11 is located on the front side of the cooking utensil body 1, the second damping member 13 is arranged on the upper side of the bottom wall of the storage groove 11, and the front side of the second damping member 13 is provided with an arc-shaped groove 131, and the rear side of the second damping member 13 is provided with an arc-shaped second damping surface 132; the connecting end is provided with an arc-shaped rotating portion 22 rotatably arranged in the arc-shaped groove 131; the shape of the second damping member 13 can be set to an arc, and the second damping member 13 and the bottom wall of the storage groove 11 are integrally formed.

[0046] The first damping member 4 is arranged on the rear side of the second damping surface 132, the locking member 3 is arranged between the first damping member 4 and the connecting end, and the two ends of the locking member 3 are fixedly connected to the first damping member 4 and the connecting end respectively. The second damping member 13 is provided with a through hole 134 for the locking member 3 to pass through. When the operating screen 2 is flipped out of the storage slot 11, under the action of the locking member 3, the first damping member 4 generates a damping effect between the second damping surface 132 to keep the operating screen 2 in the state of being flipped out. Specifically, the two ends of the locking member 3 are fixedly connected to the first damping member 4 and the connecting end respectively, so that on the one hand, the first damping member 4 maintains contact with the second damping surface 132 to generate a damping effect, and on the other hand, it prevents the operating screen 2 from being separated from the storage slot 11.

[0047] Among them, such as Figures 3 to 5 As shown, the first damping member 4 is provided with a first arcuate damping surface 41 that mates with the second damping surface 132. Under the action of the locking member 3, the first damping surface 41 abuts against the second damping surface 132 to produce a damping effect. When the operating screen 2 is flipped outward, the first damping surface 41 slides downward along the second damping surface 132. When the operating screen 2 is flipped inward into the storage slot 11, the first damping surface 41 slides upward along the second damping surface 132.

[0048] In some specific embodiments, to reduce friction between the first damping member 4 and the second damping member 13 and prevent deformation that could render them unusable, a recessed portion 42 is provided on the side of the first damping member 4 near the second damping surface 132. The recessed portion 42 is recessed backward and disengaged from the second damping surface 132. The first damping surfaces 41 are provided on both sides of the recessed portion 42. Specifically, when the operating screen 2 is rotated, the first damping surface 41 contacts the second damping surface 132, while the recessed portion 42 disengages from the second damping surface 132, thereby reducing friction between the two.

[0049] In some embodiments, Figures 3 to 5 As shown, the locking member 3 is a bolt that passes through the first damping member 4 and the through-hole 134 in sequence from the rear side of the first damping member 4 before being fixedly connected to the connecting end. Specifically, a first bolt hole is provided in the first damping member 4, and a second bolt hole is provided on the connecting end of the operating screen 2. A nut 221 is provided in front of the second bolt hole. The bolt passes through the first bolt hole, through-hole 134, and the second bolt hole in sequence from the rear side of the first damping member 4 before being fixed to the nut 221. To ensure the bolt is tightened, a washer 31 is provided between the bolt head and the first damping member 4.

[0050] In this embodiment, Figures 3 to 5As shown, in order to facilitate the electrical connection between the operating panel 2 and the wires in the cooking appliance body 1, a wire threading hole 133 is provided on the second damping member 13.

[0051] In some specific embodiments, in order to make the operating screen 2 more stable and balanced when it is flipped out of the storage slot 11, there are two first damping members 4, and the two first damping members 4 are respectively located on the left and right sides of the threading hole 133, and a locking member 3 is provided between each first damping member 4 and the connecting end.

[0052] In some specific embodiments, in order to facilitate user operation, the operation screen 2 is turned outward from the storage slot 11, and the outward end is provided with a pull portion 21. The lower side of the storage slot 11 is provided with a clearance groove 12 for manually turning the pull portion 21. Specifically, the pull portion 21 is a bar-shaped block.

[0053] Working principle description:

[0054] When the operating screen 2 is flipped out of the storage slot 11, under the action of the locking member 3, the first damping surface 41 is attached to the second damping surface 132, and friction resistance is generated between the second damping surface 132 and the first damping surface 41, preventing the first damping surface 41 from sliding relative to the second damping surface 132, thereby keeping the operating screen 2 in the flipped-out state.

[0055] The present invention is not limited to the above optional implementation methods. Under the premise of not conflicting with each other, the various solutions can be combined arbitrarily. Anyone can derive other forms of products under the inspiration of the present invention. However, no matter what changes are made in their shape or structure, all technical solutions that fall within the scope defined by the claims of the present invention fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.
