Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of cooking utensils, in particular to a rectangular silicone baking tray. Background Art

[0002] In the field of cooking, baking trays are a commonly used tool, and their materials are diverse. Among them, silicone baking trays have attracted widespread attention and use due to their good flexibility, high temperature resistance and easy cleaning.

[0003] However, the silicone bakeware currently on the market has some drawbacks. For one thing, the base of a typical rectangular silicone bakeware is large and relatively soft. Due to the inherent softness of silicone, the bakeware struggles to provide adequate support when baking food, especially for heavier or unevenly textured foods. This can cause the food to sit unsteadily on the bakeware, affecting the baking process and even causing the food to deform. For example, when baking foods that require stable support, such as cakes, the soft base of the bakeware can cause the cake to partially collapse during baking, affecting its appearance and taste.

[0004] On the other hand, most existing silicone bakeware has a flat bottom surface. When baking foods high in fat (such as meat and fried foods), fat tends to accumulate underneath the food and prevent it from draining away effectively. This not only affects the uniformity of the food's heating, causing overheating in certain areas due to fat accumulation, but can also soak the food in fat, affecting its quality and healthiness. Furthermore, the accumulated fat makes cleaning the bakeware more difficult.

[0005] It can be seen that the existing technology still needs to be improved and enhanced. Utility Model Content

[0006] In view of the above-mentioned deficiencies in the prior art, the purpose of the present invention is to provide a rectangular silicone baking tray, which aims to enhance the structural strength of the silicone tray bottom and also allow food grease to be discharged to the surrounding areas.

[0007] In order to achieve the above purpose, the utility model adopts the following technical solutions:

[0008] A rectangular silicone baking tray comprises a rectangular silicone tray bottom and a silicone side panel arranged around the edge of the silicone bottom and extending upward. The outer bottom surface of the silicone tray bottom is provided with cross-shaped supporting ribs, the intersection of the supporting ribs is the center of the silicone tray bottom, and the central area of ​​the silicone tray bottom bulges upward under the support of the supporting ribs. The inner bottom surface of the silicone tray bottom is arranged with multiple convex strips for supporting food.

[0009] As a further improvement of the above technical solution, an oil storage tank is formed at the junction of the silicone plate bottom and the silicone side wall.

[0010] As a further improvement of the above technical solution, the convex strips extend front to back and are arranged at intervals left to right, and an oil guide groove for flowing toward the oil storage tank is formed between two adjacent convex strips.

[0011] As a further improvement of the above technical solution, the silicone side panel is a downwardly foldable structure.

[0012] As a further improvement of the above technical solution, the silicone side surround includes a bottom side surround portion, a middle side surround portion and an upper side surround portion, a first fold is formed between the bottom side surround portion and the middle side surround portion, and a second fold is formed between the middle side surround portion and the upper side surround portion.

[0013] As a further improvement of the above technical solution, the top edge of the silicone side panel is thickened and provided with two handles.

[0014] As a further improvement of the above technical solution, each handle is arranged on the long side of the silicone side and has an M-shaped structure.

[0015] Beneficial effects of the present invention: Compared with the prior art, the rectangular silicone baking tray provided by the present invention is provided with cross-shaped supporting ribs on the outer bottom surface of the silicone tray, and the intersection of the supporting ribs is located at the center of the silicone tray bottom, so that the central area bulges upward under the support of the supporting ribs. This structural design not only increases the rigidity of the bottom of the baking tray, which can effectively resist the pressure exerted on the baking tray by heavy or unevenly textured food, but also supports the food through the ribs, forming a certain gap between the food and the bottom surface of the baking tray, allowing grease to flow around along the gaps between the ribs, preventing it from accumulating in the middle area of ​​the bottom surface of the baking tray, that is, avoiding grease accumulation under the food, making the food heated more evenly, reducing the situation where some parts are overheated due to grease accumulation, ensuring the quality of the food, and improving the healthiness of the food.

[0020] The present invention provides a rectangular silicone baking tray. To make the purpose, technical solution, and effects of the present invention more clear and explicit, the present invention is further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and examples. It should be understood that the specific examples described herein are only intended to illustrate the present invention and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0021] See also Figures 1 to 3 The utility model provides a rectangular silicone baking tray, comprising a rectangular silicone tray bottom 1, a silicone side panel 2 arranged around the edge of the silicone bottom and extending upward, the outer bottom surface of the silicone tray bottom 1 is provided with a cross-shaped supporting rib 3, the intersection of the supporting rib 3 is the center of the silicone tray bottom 1 and the central area of ​​the silicone tray bottom 1 bulges upward under the support of the supporting rib 3, and the inner bottom surface of the silicone tray bottom 1 is arranged with a plurality of convex strips 5 for supporting food.

[0022] Cross-shaped support ribs 3 are provided on the outer bottom surface of the silicone plate bottom 1, and the intersection of the support ribs 3 is located at the center of the silicone plate bottom 1, so that the central area bulges upward under the support of the support ribs 3. This structural design increases the rigidity of the bottom of the baking tray and can effectively resist the pressure exerted on the baking tray by heavier or unevenly textured foods. The cross-shaped support ribs 3 and the raised central area change the original soft state of the bottom of the baking tray, so that the baking tray as a whole can better disperse the pressure when bearing the weight of the food, providing stable support for the food. For example, when grilling fish or large pieces of meat (such as lamb chops and steaks), effective support for food can be provided, which can avoid the problem of local collapse of food caused by the soft bottom of the baking tray, ensure that the baked food has a complete appearance and good taste, and improve the quality and success rate of baking.

[0023] In addition, compared to directly using the inner bottom surface of the silicone plate bottom 1 to support food, when baking food containing more fat, the ridges 5 are used to support the food, and a certain gap is formed between the food and the bottom of the baking tray. The fat can flow to the surroundings along the gap between the ridges 5, preventing it from gathering in the middle area of ​​the bottom of the baking tray, that is, avoiding fat accumulation under the food, making the food heated more evenly, reducing the situation where some parts are overheated due to fat accumulation, ensuring the quality of the food, and improving the health of the food.

[0024] See Figure 2As shown, the intersection of the silicone pan bottom 1 and the silicone side 2 forms an oil reservoir 41. The ridges 5 extend forward and backward and are spaced apart from each other. Between adjacent ridges 5, an oil guide 42 is formed, which flows to the oil reservoir 41. Combined with the raised center of the pan bottom, the oil can flow orderly from the center to the surrounding oil reservoir 41 during baking, preventing local overheating due to oil accumulation between the food and the baking pan. Heat from the entire baking pan can be more evenly transferred to the food, ensuring uniform heating of all parts of the food, further improving the baking effect and ensuring the overall quality of the baked food, both in terms of appearance, color, and internal texture.

[0025] See Figure 3 As shown, the silicone side panels 2 are foldable downward. When the baking tray is not in use, the side panels can be folded up. This greatly reduces the space occupied by the baking tray, making it easier to store. Storing the baking tray in a kitchen cabinet can make more efficient use of space, solving the problem of traditional baking trays taking up a large amount of space due to the non-foldable side panels. When it is necessary to take the baking tray out (such as for picnics, camping, etc.), the foldable silicone side panels 2 make the baking tray smaller and easier to carry. It can be easily put into a picnic basket, camping equipment bag, etc., providing convenience for outdoor cooking and meeting people's needs for using baking trays in different scenarios.

[0026] Specifically, the silicone side panel 2 includes a bottom side panel 21, a middle side panel 22, and an upper side panel 23. A first fold 24 is formed between the bottom side panel 21 and the middle side panel 22, and a second fold 25 is formed between the middle side panel 22 and the upper side panel 23. This multi-layer folding structure further reduces the size of the baking tray, more flexibly meeting the requirements of different storage environments, and improving the baking tray's adaptability in storage.

[0027] It should be noted that after the silicone side panel 2 is unfolded, the bottom side panel 21, the middle side panel 22 and the upper side panel 23 are designed as a continuous plane (i.e., without gaps), which not only isolates oil but also prevents food residues from entering the gaps and is easy to clean.

[0028] Preferably, the top edge of the silicone side panel 2 is thickened and provided with two handles 6. The thickened top edge of the silicone side panel 2 and the two handles 6 allow the user to conveniently move the baking tray using the handles 6. Whether removing the baking tray from the cabinet and placing it in the oven, or removing the baking tray from the oven after baking, the handles 6 provide a stable and comfortable foothold, eliminating the difficulty of handling the baking tray due to excessively hot or slippery surfaces, greatly improving operational convenience.

[0029] Furthermore, each handle 6 is positioned on a long side of the silicone side panel 2 and has an M-shaped structure. This design allows the handle 6 to more evenly distribute the force along the long side of the side panel when bearing the weight of the bakeware. Compared to simple linear or other shaped handles 6, the M-shaped structure increases the contact area between the handle 6 and the side panel, avoiding stress concentration at a single point or a small area. This reduces the possibility of damage to the connection between the handle 6 and the side panel due to localized excessive force, thus ensuring the safety and stability of the bakeware during transportation.
