Description

Technical Field

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

[0002] The outer shell of a cooking appliance (such as an electric rice cooker, an electric pressure cooker, etc.) is mostly formed by assembling an upper shell and a lower shell. The upper and lower shells are usually respectively provided with screw columns, and the two are fastened together by screws.

[0003] However, the screw columns are usually arranged at the four corners of the pot body. After being fixed, the upper shell and the lower shell can have a good fixing effect in all circumferential areas.

[0004] However, some cooking utensils have unconventional cross-sectional shapes, such as a runway circle, which makes the front and rear ends of the pot body farther away from the screw posts, while the left and right ends of the pot body are closer to the screw posts. At this time, if the conventional arrangement of setting screw posts at the four corners is still adopted, the left and right ends of the pot body can obtain a better fixing effect, but the connection at the front and back ends will be unstable, thereby affecting the product yield.

[0005] Therefore, in the prior art, additional screw columns are added at the front or rear end to improve the fixing strength of the area. However, the screw fixing method is not only more complicated to assemble, but also the screw columns are large in size, occupying a large amount of space at the front or rear end of the pot body, which in turn has a great impact on the layout of structures such as circuit boards, resulting in greatly increased assembly difficulty and affected assembly efficiency.

[0006] In addition, when assembling the upper and lower shells, there is often no structure to position them in the left and right directions, which may cause a certain degree of deviation between the upper and lower shells in the left and right directions during the installation process, affecting the appearance and quality of the entire machine, and also resulting in poor product yield. Utility Model Content

[0007] The utility model provides a cooking utensil to solve the problem that the upper and lower shells are not fixed well at the front end or the rear end of the pot body, and the additional screw columns seriously occupy the internal space of the pot body, making it difficult to install components such as circuit boards.

[0008] The technical solution adopted by this utility model is:

[0009] A cooking utensil includes a pot body, which includes an upper shell and a lower shell. The upper shell and the lower shell are correspondingly provided with fixing columns for fixing the upper shell and the lower shell to be connected. The fixing columns are located at the four corners of the pot body, wherein the fixing columns located at the rear end of the pot body are offset toward the front end to form an installation space for installing a circuit board at the rear end of the pot body. A fixing buckle is provided at the rear end of the upper shell corresponding to the pot body, and a matching buckle is provided at the rear end of the lower shell corresponding to the pot body. The matching buckle is fixed by clamping and fixing with the fixing buckle.

[0010] The cooking utensil of the present invention also has the following additional technical features:

[0011] In the circumferential direction of the pot body, limiting ribs are provided on both sides of one of the fixing buckle and the matching buckle, and limiting grooves are formed between the limiting ribs. The fixing buckle and the matching buckle are matched in the limiting grooves.

[0012] The limiting ribs extend along the height direction of the pot body, so that the limiting groove forms a guide slide extending along the height direction of the pot body.

[0013] A shielding portion extending downward is provided at the lower end of the inner wall of the upper shell, the shielding portion extends into the interior of the lower shell, and a fixing buckle is provided on the shielding portion.

[0014] An accommodating groove is provided between the shielding portion and the upper shell, and the upper end of the lower shell is located in the accommodating groove so that the outer surface of the upper shell is flush with the outer surface of the lower shell.

[0015] The matching clip has a clipping portion protruding toward the inside of the pot body, the lower side of the clipping portion has a clipping plane for matching with the fixed clip, the upper side of the clipping portion is provided with a reinforcing rib, and the upper surface of the reinforcing rib has a guiding slope.

[0016] There is a accommodating cavity inside the pot body, the lower shell is a base located below the accommodating cavity, the upper shell is an outer cover surrounding the outer periphery of the accommodating cavity, the fixing buckle is set at the bottom of the outer cover, and the matching buckle is set at the top of the base.

[0017] There is a accommodating cavity inside the pot body. The lower shell includes a first shell located below the accommodating cavity and a second shell surrounding the outer periphery of the accommodating cavity. The first shell and the second shell are formed as one piece. The upper shell is a middle ring located above the second shell. The fixing clip is set at the bottom of the middle ring, and the matching clip is set at the top of the second shell.

[0018] The rear end of the pot body is provided with a hinge seat for rotationally connecting with the pot cover, and the fixing buckle is located below the hinge seat.

[0019] The pot body has a proximal end and a distal end along the circumferential direction, as well as an arc segment located between the proximal end and the distal end. The distal end is located at the front and rear ends of the pot body, the proximal end is located at the left and right ends of the pot body, and the arc segment is located at the four corners of the pot body.

[0020] Due to the adoption of the above technical solution, the beneficial effects achieved by the utility model are as follows:

[0021] 1. In the present invention, the upper and lower shells utilize fixing columns to primarily secure the pot. The fixing columns are located at the four corners of the pot body, thereby radiating to a wider area around the pot body. The left and right ends of the pot body are closer to the fixing columns, so that the fixing force of the fixing columns ensures that the left and right ends of the pot body have a good fixing effect. At the rear end of the pot body, the fixing columns are offset toward the front end, creating a larger space at the rear end of the pot body for arranging circuit boards. A fixing buckle is provided at the rear end of the upper shell body, and a corresponding matching buckle is provided at the lower shell body. The buckle is used to achieve auxiliary fixation of the rear end of the pot body. Compared with the method of adding screw columns at the rear end, the processing and manufacturing costs of the buckle are lower, and the fixing strength can be guaranteed, thereby saving mold costs and processing costs.

[0022] Furthermore, because the snap-on structure is more compact, its installation does not occupy excessive space between the upper and lower shells, further compromising the installation of components such as circuit boards. This also allows for greater flexibility in the placement of the fixing and mating snaps. They can be positioned not only at the rear end of the pot body but also anywhere along its circumference, allowing for local reinforcement of the pot body in areas prone to deformation. Furthermore, the snap-on fit also provides a certain degree of pre-positioning, improving the positioning between the upper and lower shells. Once engaged, the fixing and mating snaps constrain the upper and lower shells, maintaining their relative positions until the fixing post is tightened. This improves assembly efficiency and product yield.

[0023] 2. As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, limiting ribs are provided on both sides of one of the fixing buckle and the mating buckle in the circumferential direction of the pot body, forming a limiting groove between the limiting ribs, and the fixing buckle and the mating buckle mate within the limiting groove. The limiting ribs are located on both sides of the fixing buckle or the mating buckle along the circumferential direction of the pot body. When the upper shell and the lower shell are fixed, the limiting ribs can be used to position the fixing buckle or the mating buckle, confining the fixing buckle and the mating buckle within the limiting groove, preventing the upper shell and the lower shell from relative movement in the left-right direction, thereby reducing assembly difficulty and improving appearance quality and product yield.

[0024] 3. As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, a downwardly extending shielding portion is provided at the lower end of the inner wall of the upper shell, extending into the interior of the lower shell, and a fixing clip is provided on the shielding portion. The shielding portion extends downward into the interior of the lower shell, thereby blocking the gap between the lower end of the outer wall of the upper shell and the top end of the lower shell. This not only improves the aesthetics of the pot, but also prevents liquids and impurities on the outer surface of the pot from entering the pot through the gap.

[0025] 4. As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the mating clip comprises a snap-fit ​​portion protruding toward the interior of the pot body. The lower side of the snap-fit ​​portion comprises a flat surface for engaging with the fixed clip. A reinforcing rib is provided on the upper side of the snap-fit ​​portion, and the upper surface of the rib has a guiding slope. The snap-fit ​​portion is located above the fixed clip, and the lower snap-fit ​​portion is secured by the fixed clip, which is secured by the snap-fit ​​surface formed by the lower snap-fit ​​surface. A reinforcing rib is provided on the other side of the snap-fit ​​portion, connecting the snap-fit ​​portion to the inner wall of the lower shell. This enhances the structural strength of the snap-fit ​​portion, enabling it to withstand greater clamping forces and maintain a stable fit. Furthermore, the reinforcing rib is provided with a guiding slope. When assembling the upper and lower shells, the fixed clip first contacts the guiding slope above the snap-fit ​​portion. As the compressive force between the two increases, the snap-fit ​​portion compresses the fixed clip, causing it to deform, passing over the snap-fit ​​portion to reach the lower side of the snap-fit ​​portion, completing the engagement. This makes mating the two shells simpler and more convenient; simply applying downward force to the upper shell automatically completes the snap-fit, improving assembly efficiency.

[0026] 5. As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the rear end of the pot body is provided with a hinge seat for rotationally connecting with the pot lid, and the fixing buckle is located below the hinge seat. For models in which the pot lid is rotationally connected to the pot body, when the pot lid rotates around the connection, or when pressure cooking is performed, the rear end of the pot body is subjected to a large force, and the risk of deformation is relatively high. The fixing buckle and the matching buckle are fixed below the hinge seat, which can improve the structural strength of the rear end of the pot body and enable the upper shell to withstand a greater force. As a result, the fixing buckle and the matching buckle can not only fix the upper shell and the lower shell at the rear end of the pot body, but also play a structural reinforcement role for the upper shell through the clamping force, further preventing the upper shell from deforming at the rear end and improving the quality of the whole machine.

[0045] like Figure 1 、 Figure 2 As shown, a cooking utensil includes a pot body 1, which includes an upper shell 14 and a lower shell 15. The upper shell 14 and the lower shell 15 are correspondingly provided with fixing columns 13 for fixing the upper shell 14 and the lower shell 15 to be fixedly connected. The fixing columns 13 are located at the four corners of the pot body 1, wherein the fixing columns 13 located at the rear end 111 of the pot body 1 are biased toward the front end to form an installation space 19 for installing a circuit board at the rear end 111 of the pot body 1. A fixing buckle 141 is provided at the rear end 111 of the upper shell 14 corresponding to the pot body 1, and a matching buckle 151 is provided at the rear end 111 of the pot body 1. The matching buckle 151 is fixed to the fixing buckle 141.

[0046] Specifically, such as Figure 1 As shown, there are four fixing columns 13, arranged at Figure 1 At the four corners of the middle pot body 1, the fixing columns 13 of the upper shell 14 and the fixing columns 13 of the lower shell 15 are fastened together by screws to achieve the fixation of the upper shell 14 and the lower shell 15. At the same time, the fixing buckles 141 and the matching buckles 151 are used to assist in fixing the upper shell 14 and the lower shell 15.

[0047] In the present invention, the upper and lower shells 14 and 15 are primarily secured by fixing posts 13. These posts are located at the four corners of the pot body 1, radiating a wider circumference of the pot body 1. The left and right ends of the pot body 1 are closer to the fixing posts 13, ensuring a good securement of both ends due to the tightening force of the fixing posts 13. At the rear end of the pot body 1, the fixing posts 13 are offset toward the front end, creating a larger installation space 19 at the rear end 111 of the pot body 1 for arranging circuit boards. A fixing clip 141 is provided at the rear end 111 of the upper shell 14, and a corresponding matching clip 151 is provided on the lower shell 15. These clips provide auxiliary securement of the rear end 111 of the pot body 1. Compared to adding screw posts to the rear end 111, the clips are more economical to manufacture and provide guaranteed securement, thus saving mold and processing costs.

[0048] Furthermore, because the buckle structure is more compact, its installation does not occupy excessive space in the upper and lower housings 14, 15, further facilitating the installation of components such as circuit boards. This also allows for greater flexibility in the placement of the fixing buckle 141 and the mating buckle 151. They can be positioned not only at the rear end of the pot body 1 but also at any circumferential location around the pot body 1, allowing for local reinforcement of the pot body 1 in areas prone to deformation.

[0049] The snap fit can also play a certain pre-positioning role, improving the positioning effect between the upper shell 14 and the lower shell 15. After the fixing snap 141 and the matching snap 151 are matched, a restriction is formed on the upper shell 14 and the lower shell 15. Before the fixing column 13 is tightened, the upper shell 14 and the lower shell 15 remain fixed in relative position, thereby improving assembly efficiency and product yield.

[0050] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, Figure 2 、 Figure 3 、 Figure 4 As shown, in the circumferential direction of the pot body 1, limiting ribs 142 are provided on both sides of one of the fixing buckle 141 and the matching buckle 151, and limiting grooves 143 are formed between the limiting ribs 142, and the fixing buckle 141 and the matching buckle 151 are matched in the limiting grooves 143.

[0051] The limiting ribs 142 are located on both sides of the fixing buckle 141 or the matching buckle 151 along the circumferential direction of the pot body 1, and when the upper shell 14 and the lower shell 15 are fixed, the limiting ribs 142 can be used to position the fixing buckle 141 or the matching buckle 151, and the fixing buckle 141 and the matching buckle 151 can be restricted in the limiting groove 143, so that the upper shell 14 and the lower shell 15 cannot move relative to each other in the left and right directions, thereby reducing the difficulty of assembly and improving the appearance quality and product yield.

[0052] In a specific embodiment, Figure 2 、 Figure 4 As shown, the limiting ribs 142 are provided on the upper shell 14, on the left and right sides of the fixing buckle 141. Of course, the limiting ribs 142 can also be provided on the lower shell 15, on the left and right sides of the matching buckle 151, which is not limited here.

[0053] Furthermore, if Figure 4 As shown, the limiting rib 142 extends along the height direction of the pot body 1 so that the limiting groove 143 forms a guide slide 144 extending along the height direction of the pot body 1.

[0054] The limiting ribs 142 extending up and down can further improve the positioning effect of the upper shell 14 and the lower shell 15 during assembly. Specifically, when the lower end of the upper shell 14 is docked with the upper end of the lower shell 15, the limiting groove 143 can be aligned with the position of the mating buckle 151, so that the mating buckle 151 is accommodated in the guide slide 144 formed by the limiting groove 143. At this time, the limiting ribs 142 on both sides can form a stop with the mating buckle 151 to limit the relative movement of the upper shell 14 and the lower shell 15 in the left and right directions. At this time, it is only necessary to apply a force in the height direction to make the upper shell 14 and the lower shell 15 move toward each other, so that the fixed buckle 141 and the mating buckle 151 can be connected, and the assembly process is simpler and more convenient, thereby improving assembly efficiency.

[0055] As a preferred embodiment, Figure 5 、 Figure 6 As shown, a shielding portion 145 extending downward is provided at the lower end of the inner wall of the upper shell 14 . The shielding portion 145 extends into the interior of the lower shell 15 , and the fixing buckle 141 is provided on the shielding portion 145 .

[0056] The shielding portion 145 extends downward into the interior of the lower shell 15, so that it can block the gap between the lower end of the outer wall of the upper shell 14 and the top of the lower shell 15. On the one hand, it can improve the appearance of the pot body 1, and on the other hand, it can prevent liquid, impurities, etc. on the outer surface of the pot body 1 from entering the interior of the pot body 1 through the gap.

[0057] Furthermore, if Figure 6 As shown, an accommodating groove 146 is defined between the shielding portion 145 and the upper shell 14 , and the upper end of the lower shell 15 is located in the accommodating groove 146 so that the outer surface of the upper shell 14 is flush with the outer surface of the lower shell 15 .

[0058] Specifically, such as Figure 6As shown, the shielding portion 145 protrudes downward from the bottom end of the outer wall of the upper shell 14, thereby forming a receiving groove 146 between the two. The top end of the lower shell 15 can extend into the receiving groove 146, thereby making the shielding portion 145 located inside the lower shell 15, which can not only form outward support for the lower shell 15, further reducing the possibility of deformation of the lower shell 15, but also make the outer surface of the lower shell 15 flush with the outer surface of the upper shell 14, reducing the step difference between the outer surfaces of the two, making the appearance of the pot body 1 smoother, and improving the appearance and texture.

[0059] Preferably, if Figure 6 、 Figure 9 、 Figure 10 As shown, the mating clip 151 has a snap-fitting portion 1511 protruding toward the inside of the pot body 1, the lower side of the snap-fitting portion 1511 has a snap-fitting plane for mating with the fixing clip 141, and the upper side of the snap-fitting portion 1511 is provided with a reinforcing rib 1512, and the upper surface of the reinforcing rib 1512 has a guiding slope.

[0060] The clamping portion 1511 is located above the fixing buckle 141, and the lower clamping plane forms a stop with the fixing buckle 141 to achieve fixation. On the other side of the clamping portion 1511, a reinforcing rib 1512 is provided to connect the clamping portion 1511 to the inner wall surface of the lower shell 15. This can enhance the structural strength of the clamping portion 1511, allowing it to withstand greater clamping force and maintain a stable fit. Furthermore, the reinforcing rib 1512 is provided with a guiding slope. When assembling the upper shell 14 and the lower shell 15, the fixing buckle 141 first contacts the guiding slope above the clamping portion 1511. As the compressive force between the two increases, the clamping portion 1511 squeezes the fixing buckle 141, causing it to deform, thereby passing over the clamping portion 1511 and reaching the lower side of the clamping portion 1511, completing the clamping connection. This makes the connection between the two easier and more convenient. Simply applying downward force to the upper shell 14 automatically completes the clamping connection, improving assembly efficiency.

[0061] Specifically, such as Figure 6 As shown, the fixing buckle 141 also has a laterally protruding extension, wherein the engaging portion 1511 of the matching buckle 151 protrudes toward the inside of the pot body 1, and the extension of the fixing buckle 141 protrudes toward the outside of the pot body 1. Figure 6 As shown, the lower end of the extension portion is also provided with a guiding slope.

[0062] It should be noted that the present invention does not limit the structure of the pot body 1, which can be one of the following embodiments:

[0063] Implementation method 1: In this implementation method, Figure 5 、 Figure 6As shown, the pot body 1 has a accommodating cavity inside, the lower shell 15 is a base 152 located below the accommodating cavity, the upper shell 14 is an outer cover 147 surrounding the outer periphery of the accommodating cavity, the fixing buckle 141 is arranged at the bottom of the outer cover 147, and the matching buckle 151 is arranged at the top of the base 152.

[0064] In this embodiment, the base 152 and the outer cover 147 are separate structures, and are fixedly connected at the distal end 11 by a fixing buckle 141 and a matching buckle 151. Figure 5 As shown, in one embodiment, the outer cover 147 extends upward to the top of the pot body 1 to form the top appearance of the pot body 1, and the fixing columns 13 are respectively provided on the outer cover 147 and the base 152.

[0065] In another embodiment, the upper housing 14 further includes a central ring 17 positioned above the outer housing 147. A snap-fit ​​structure can also be provided at the locations of the central ring 17 and the outer housing 147 corresponding to the distal end 11 to secure the outer housing 147 and the central ring 17. The fixing posts 13 are provided between the central ring 17 and the base 152 so that, when the central ring 17 and the base 152 are secured together, they can also provide a clamping force on the outer housing 147, thereby enhancing the stability of the three-way connection.

[0066] Implementation method 2: In this implementation method, if Figures 7 to 10 As shown, the pot body 1 has an accommodating cavity inside, and the lower shell 15 includes a first shell 153 located below the accommodating cavity, and a second shell 154 surrounding the outer peripheral side of the accommodating cavity. The first shell 153 and the second shell 154 are integrally formed, and the upper shell 14 is a middle ring 17 located above the second shell 154. The fixing buckle 141 is arranged at the bottom of the middle ring 17, and the matching buckle 151 is arranged at the top of the second shell 154.

[0067] In this embodiment, the first shell 153 corresponds to the base in the first embodiment, and the second shell 154 corresponds to the outer cover in the first embodiment. The base and the outer cover are integrally formed, thereby eliminating the assembly steps, simplifying the structure, and making the outer surface of the pot body 1 more uniform and smooth.

[0068] Preferably, if Figure 1 、 Figure 7 As shown, the rear end 111 of the pot body 1 is provided with a hinge seat 16 for rotationally connecting with the pot cover, and the fixing buckle 141 is located below the hinge seat 16.

[0069] For models where the lid is rotatably connected to the pot body 1, when the lid rotates around the connection or when pressure cooking is performed, the rear end 111 of the pot body 1 is subjected to a large force, resulting in a greater risk of deformation. The fixing buckle 141 and the matching buckle 151 are fixed below the hinge seat 16, which can improve the structural strength of the rear end 111 of the pot body 1 and enable the upper shell 14 to withstand greater forces. As a result, the fixing buckle 141 and the matching buckle 151 not only fix the upper shell 14 and the lower shell 15 to the rear end 111 of the pot body 1, but also provide structural reinforcement for the upper shell 14 through the clamping force, further preventing the upper shell 14 from deforming at the rear end 111 and improving the quality of the entire machine.

[0070] Preferably, if Figure 1 、 Figure 7 As shown, the pot body 1 has a proximal end 11 and a distal end 12 along the circumferential direction, and an arc segment 18 located between the proximal end 12 and the distal end 11. The distal end 11 is located at the front end and the rear end 111 of the pot body 1, the proximal end 12 is located at the left end and the right end of the pot body 1, and the arc segment 18 is located at the four corners of the pot body 1.

[0071] It should be noted that the proximal end 12 and the distal end 11 are relative, that is, the distance between the distal end 11 and the center of the pot body 1 is farther than the distance between the proximal end 12 and the center of the pot body 1, but it does not represent the end farthest from the center of the pot body 1. In one embodiment, Figure 1 As shown, the cross section of the pot body 1 is a racetrack circle, and the distal end 11 is Figure 1 The upper and lower ends shown in the figure are the front end and the rear end 111 of the pot body 1, and the proximal end 12 is Figure 1 The left and right ends shown in the figure are also the left and right ends of the pot body 1.

[0072] Anything not described in this utility model can be achieved by adopting or drawing on existing technologies.

[0073] The various embodiments in this specification are described in a progressive manner, and the same or similar parts between the various embodiments can be referred to each other. Each embodiment focuses on the differences from other embodiments.

[0074] The above description is merely an embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Those skilled in the art will readily appreciate that various modifications and variations of the present invention are possible. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, or improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present invention are intended to be within the scope of the claims of the present invention.
