Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of kitchen utensils, and in particular to a pot cover and a pot. Background Art

[0002] A pot cover is a common kitchen utensil, usually used in conjunction with a pot body. The main function of the pot cover is to maintain the temperature of the contents of the pot and to prevent liquid splashing and steam escaping due to factors such as heat.

[0003] A pot lid typically consists of a lid body and a lid head, which users lift by gripping the lid head. To reduce the space required to store the pot lid, one side of the lid head can be extended to form a bracket. The bracket and the edge of the lid body work together to support the pot lid, allowing it to stand upright. This structure results in a larger pot lid and makes it difficult to effectively utilize the space within the lid during use. Utility Model Content

[0004] The present application provides a pot cover and a pot, so that the pot cover can be placed upright, reducing the volume of the pot cover and improving the utilization rate of the pot cover space during use.

[0005] In a first aspect, the present application provides a pot cover, comprising:

[0006] Cover body;

[0007] A support, the support being close to an edge of the cover and connected to the upper portion of the cover, the support comprising a first supporting portion and a second supporting portion arranged opposite to each other;

[0008] The first supporting portion is located at an end of the support away from the axis of the cover body, and the second supporting portion is located at an end of the support close to the axis of the cover body;

[0009] The first supporting portion and the second supporting portion gradually tilt upward along directions departing from each other.

[0010] The pot cover provided in the embodiment of the present application includes a cover body and a support. The cover body is configured to be in a shape that matches the pot body and is used to cover the top opening of the pot body. The support is close to the edge of the cover body and is connected to the top of the cover body to reduce the distance between the support and the edge of the cover body, so that the pot cover can be placed upright with a smaller support, reducing the overall volume of the pot cover. The support includes a first support portion and a second support portion that are relatively arranged. The first support portion is located at one end of the support away from the axis of the cover body, and the second support portion is located at one end of the support close to the axis of the cover body; along directions diverging from each other, the first support portion and the second support portion gradually tilt upward, that is, the first support portion tilts upward along the direction away from the axis of the cover body, and the second support portion tilts upward along the direction close to the axis of the cover body. On the one hand, the first and second support portions act as stops at either end of the support, allowing the scoop to be stably placed above the support in a direction parallel to the first and second support portions. Furthermore, the support is unobstructed in directions parallel to the first and second support portions, allowing the placement of scoops of any length. On the other hand, the first and second support portions are spaced apart, allowing the scoop to be supported across the first and second support portions in their arrangement. Furthermore, the span between the first and second support portions is small, allowing the placement of shorter scoops. Furthermore, the first support portion cooperates with the edge of the lid to enable the lid to stand upright. As it moves away from the axis of the lid, the first support portion gradually tilts upward to increase the span between the first support portion and the edge of the lid, thereby enhancing the stability of the lid when standing upright. Thus, when the lid is standing upright, the support provides support for the lid. When the lid is lying flat or folded over the pot, the support serves as a scoop holder, effectively improving the space utilization of the lid during use.

[0011] Optionally, the end surface of the first support portion away from the support is a first surface, and the first surface is a concave continuous curved surface. On the one hand, the concave continuous curved surface can act as a stop on both sides of the scoop, preventing the scoop from sliding off the edge of the first support portion when the scoop is supported across the first and second support portions, thereby increasing the stability of the scoop's placement. On the other hand, the concave continuous curved surface can form two mutually spaced support points on the first support portion, so that the support and the edge of the lid body jointly form a three-point support on the countertop, further increasing the stability of the pot lid when placed upright. In addition, the concave continuous curved surface can maintain the structural strength of the first support portion as much as possible, preventing damage to the first support portion due to factors such as stress concentration.

[0012] Optionally, the end surface of the second support portion away from the support is a second surface, and the second surface is a concave continuous curved surface. On the one hand, the concave continuous curved surface can act as a stop at both ends, preventing the scoop from sliding off the edge of the second support portion when the scoop is supported across the first and second support portions, thereby increasing the stability of the scoop's placement. On the other hand, the concave continuous curved surface can maximize the structural strength of the second support portion, preventing damage to the second support portion due to factors such as stress concentration.

[0013] Optionally, the pot lid further includes a cover head connected to the center of the lid body, with a groove formed on the top of the cover head, and a notch formed directly opposite the support. When the scoop is placed along the arrangement of the first support portion and the second support portion, the scoop can pass through the notch and extend into the notch, thereby acting as a stopper on both sides of the scoop to prevent the scoop from sliding off the edge of the cover head.

[0014] Optionally, the end surface of the first support portion away from the support is the first surface, the line between the notch and the first surface is the first line, and the second support portion is located below the first line to avoid interference between the second support portion and the first surface, ensuring that the shovel can be supported across the notch and the first surface, as well as across the notch and the second surface, so as to better adapt to shovels of different lengths.

[0015] Optionally, the support includes a platform portion, the platform portion being located between the first support portion and the second support portion, and the first support portion, the platform portion, and the second support portion collectively forming an upwardly opening inverted trapezoidal trough structure. When the scoop is placed parallel to the first and second support portions, the scoop is supported above the platform portion, thereby increasing the contact area between the scoop and the support, thereby enhancing the stability of the scoop during placement.

[0016] Optionally, the platform portion has a first dimension along the extension direction of the trough-like structure, and a second dimension along the width direction of the trough-like structure, wherein the first dimension is greater than the second dimension. When the scoop is placed parallel to the first and second support portions, the first dimension defines the maximum support length of the scoop, and the second dimension defines the range of left-right movement or rocking of the scoop. Using a larger first dimension and a smaller second dimension can increase the stability of the scoop's placement.

[0017] Optionally, the support includes a connecting column, which is protruding from the bottom of the platform part and abuts against the upper surface of the cover body to increase the stability of the platform part and prevent the platform part from shaking or vibrating, thereby increasing the stability of the shovel placement.

[0018] Optionally, a latching protrusion is provided on a side of the second support portion facing away from the first support portion, the latching protrusion being used to latch onto the outer edge of the pot body, so that the pot lid can be placed upright on the pot mouth. This eliminates the need to occupy countertop space, further improving the convenience of placing the pot lid. Moreover, the pot lid placed upright on the pot mouth can also act as a barrier, separating the user from the pot mouth and preventing oil or other liquids in the pot from splashing and scalding the user.

[0019] A second aspect of the present application provides a cookware, comprising a pot body and any one of the pot lids provided herein, the pot lid being fitted over the pot body. The pot lid is provided with a support, which not only enables the pot lid to be placed upright but also provides a space for tools such as spatulas and spoons, thereby effectively improving the utilization of the pot lid space during use.

[0020] It should be understood that the foregoing general description and the following detailed description are merely illustrative and are not restrictive of the present application. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0045] The accompanying drawings, which are incorporated in and constitute a part of this specification, illustrate embodiments consistent with the present application and, together with the description, serve to explain the principles of the present application. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0046] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of this application more clearly understood, the present application is further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain this application and are not intended to limit this application.

[0047] In the description of this application, unless otherwise specified or limited, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and are not to be understood as indicating or implying relative importance; unless otherwise specified or explained, the term "plurality" refers to two or more; the terms "connected" and "fixed" should be understood in a broad sense. For example, "connected" can mean a fixed connection, a detachable connection, an integral connection, or an electrical connection; it can be a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium. For those skilled in the art, the specific meanings of the above terms in this application can be understood according to the specific circumstances.

[0048] In the description of this specification, it should be understood that the directional words such as "upper" and "lower" described in the embodiments of the present application are described from the perspectives shown in the accompanying drawings and should not be understood as limiting the embodiments of the present application. In addition, in the context, it should be understood that when it is mentioned that an element is connected to another element "on" or "under", it can not only be directly connected to the other element "on" or "under", but also indirectly connected to the other element "on" or "under" through an intermediate element.

[0049] like Figure 1 As shown, an embodiment of the present application provides a cookware, which includes a pot body 4 and a pot lid, which covers the pot body 4. The pot body 4 forms a cavity that can hold food ingredients, and a handle 41 can be provided on the side wall of the pot body 4 to facilitate the user to hold and lift the pot body 4; the outer edge of the mouth of the pot body 4 can be provided with a flange to increase the structural strength of the pot body 4 and prevent the mouth of the pot body 4 from being damaged such as deformation or cracking.

[0050] like Figure 1-Figure 4 As shown, the pot lid provided in an embodiment of the present application includes a lid body 1 and a support 2. The lid body 1 is configured to match the shape of the pot body 4 and is used to cover the top opening of the pot body 4. The support 2 is close to the edge of the lid body 1 and connected to the top of the lid body 1 to reduce the distance between the support 2 and the edge of the lid body 1. This allows the pot lid to be placed upright with a smaller support 2, reducing the overall volume of the pot lid. The support 2 includes a first support portion 21 and a second support portion 22 arranged in opposite directions. The first support portion 21 is located at the end of the support 2 away from the axis of the lid body 1, and the second support portion 22 is located at the end of the support 2 closer to the axis of the lid body 1. The first support portion 21 and the second support portion 22 gradually tilt upward in directions away from each other. That is, the first support portion 21 tilts upward in a direction away from the axis of the lid body 1, and the second support portion 22 tilts upward in a direction closer to the axis of the lid body 1. This allows the support 2 to not only allow the pot lid to be placed upright, but also to accommodate tools such as a spatula 5, effectively improving the utilization of the pot lid space during use.

[0051] Specifically, on the one hand, the first support portion 21 and the second support portion 22 act as stops at both ends of the support 2, so that the shovel 5 can be stably placed above the support 2 along the direction parallel to the first support portion 21 and the second support portion 22 (that is, perpendicular to the diameter of the cover 1). In addition, the support 2 has no obstacles along the direction parallel to the first support portion 21 and the second support portion 22, so a shovel 5 of any length can be placed (refer to FIG. Figure 3 ); On the other hand, the first support portion 21 and the second support portion 22 are spaced apart from each other, so that the shovel 5 can be supported across the first support portion 21 and the second support portion 22 along the arrangement direction of the first support portion 21 and the second support portion 22 (i.e., the direction parallel to the diameter of the lid 1), and the span between the first support portion 21 and the second support portion 22 is small, so a short shovel 5 (not shown in the figure) can be placed. In addition, the first support portion 21 cooperates with the edge of the lid 1 to realize the upright placement of the pot lid (refer to Figure 4), along the direction away from the axis of the lid body 1, the first support portion 21 gradually tilts upward to increase the span between the first support portion 21 and the edge of the lid body 1, thereby increasing the stability of the pot lid when placed upright. Thus, when the pot lid is placed upright, the support 2 provides support for the pot lid; when the pot lid is placed flat or covered with the pot body 4, the support 2 can serve as a place for the spatula 5, effectively improving the utilization of the pot lid space during use.

[0052] The support 2 can be connected to the cover 1 by a non-detachable method such as bonding or riveting, or by a detachable method such as threaded fasteners or snap fasteners, as long as the support 2 can be fixed to the cover 1. The support 2 is made of a heat-insulating material such as bakelite to prevent burns to the user during use.

[0053] Specifically, the first support portion 21 and the second support portion 22 are separated from each other at least at the top, forming a groove-like structure that opens upward. For example, the first support portion 21 and the second support portion 22 form a V-shaped or U-shaped groove-like structure. The end surface of the first support portion 21 away from the support 2 is a first surface 211, and the end surface of the second support portion 22 away from the support 2 is a second surface 221.

[0054] Furthermore, the first surface 211 is a concave continuous curved surface. On the one hand, the concave continuous curved surface can act as a stopper on both sides of the scoop 5, preventing the scoop 5 from sliding off the edge of the first support portion 21 when the scoop 5 is supported across the first support portion 21 and the second support portion 22, thereby increasing the stability of the scoop 5. On the other hand, the concave continuous curved surface can form two mutually spaced support points on the first support portion 21, so that the support 2 and the edge of the lid body 1 together form a three-point support on the table, further increasing the stability of the pot lid when placed upright. In addition, the concave continuous curved surface can maintain the structural strength of the first support portion 21 as much as possible, avoiding damage to the first support portion 21 due to factors such as stress concentration. It can be understood that in other embodiments, the first surface 211 can be set to any structure such as a plane, a folded surface, or a wavy surface.

[0055] Furthermore, the second surface 221 is a continuously concave surface. On one hand, this continuously concave surface acts as a stopper at both ends, preventing the scoop 5 from sliding off the edge of the second support portion 22 when supported across the first and second support portions 21 and 22, thereby increasing the stability of the scoop 5. On the other hand, this continuously concave surface maximizes the structural strength of the second support portion 22, preventing damage to the second support portion 22 due to factors such as stress concentration. It is understood that in other embodiments, the second surface 221 can be configured as any other structure, such as a flat surface, a folded surface, or a wavy surface.

[0056] Further, the support 2 comprises a platform portion 23 having a flat surface, which is located between the first support portion 21 and the second support portion 22, and together with the first support portion 21 and the second support portion 22, forms an inverted trapezoidal groove structure with an opening upward. When the ladle 5 is placed along a direction parallel to the first support portion 21 and the second support portion 22, the ladle 5 is supported above the platform portion 23 to increase the contact area between the ladle 5 and the support 2, thereby increasing the stability of the ladle 5 when placed.

[0057] Further, the platform portion 23 has a first dimension L1 along the extension direction of the groove structure, and a second dimension L2 along the groove width direction of the groove structure, and the first dimension L1 is greater than the second dimension L2. When the ladle 5 is placed along a direction parallel to the first support portion 21 and the second support portion 22, the first dimension L1 defines the maximum support length of the ladle 5, and the second dimension L2 defines the left and right movement or shaking amplitude of the ladle 5. The use of a larger first dimension L1 and a smaller second dimension L2 can increase the stability of the ladle 5 when placed.

[0058] Further, the support 2 comprises a connecting column 24 protruding from the bottom of the platform portion 23, which abuts against the upper surface of the cover body 1 to increase the stability of the platform portion 23, prevent the platform portion 23 from shaking or vibrating, and thereby increase the stability of the ladle 5 when placed.

[0059] As shown in FIG. 1, Figure 5-Figure 7 Further, the pot cover further comprises a cover head 3 connected to the center of the cover body 1, which can be held by a user to lift the pot cover, thereby increasing the stability of the pot cover when lifted. The cover head 3 and the support 2 are spaced apart from each other, so that the cover head 3 and the support 2 together serve as a support, thereby allowing the ladle 5 to be supported above the cover head 3 and the support 2 along the arrangement direction of the first support portion 21 and the second support portion 22. The span between the cover head 3 and the support 2 is large, so that a longer ladle 5 can be placed, and the longer ladle 5 can occupy as much space as possible within the area of the cover body 1 when placed, thereby reducing the risk of the ladle 5 falling by collision.

[0060] Further, the top of the cover head 3 is provided with a groove 31, and the position of the groove 31 opposite to the support 2 is provided with a gap 32. When the ladle 5 is placed along the arrangement direction of the first support portion 21 and the second support portion 22, the ladle 5 can pass through the gap 32 and extend into the groove 31, thereby serving as a stop limiting function on both sides of the ladle 5, preventing the ladle 5 from sliding off the edge of the cover head 3.

[0061] Furthermore, the line connecting the notch 32 and the first surface 211 is the first line, and the second support portion 22 is located below the first line to avoid interference between the second support portion 22 and the first surface 211, ensuring that the shovel 5 can be supported across the notch 32 and the first surface 211, and can also be supported across the notch 32 and the second surface 221, thereby better adapting to shovels 5 of different lengths. Specifically, the span between the notch 32 and the first surface 211 is the largest, and a shovel 5 that is too long is supported across the notch 32 and the first surface 211, increasing the stability of the shovel 5 (refer to Figure 6 The span between the notch 32 and the second surface 221 is slightly smaller than the span between the notch 32 and the first surface 211. The longer scoop 5 is supported across the notch 32 and the second surface 221, reducing the length of the scoop 5 exposed at the edge of the cover 1, thereby effectively reducing the risk of the scoop 5 falling off due to collision (refer to Figure 7 In addition, when the scoop 5 is supported across the notch 32 and the second surface 221, the scoop portion of the scoop 5 can be stopped by the second support portion 22, thereby forming an axial limit for the scoop 5, further increasing the stability of the placement of the scoop 5.

[0062] like Figure 8 As shown, further, a latching protrusion 25 is provided on the side of the second support portion 22 facing away from the first support portion 21. The latching protrusion 25 is used to hook the outer edge of the pot body 4 so that the pot cover can be placed upright on the mouth of the pot body 4, thereby eliminating the need to occupy space on the countertop, further improving the convenience of placing the pot cover. Moreover, the pot cover placed upright on the mouth of the pot body 4 can also act as a barrier, separating the user from the mouth of the pot body 4, and preventing the oil or other liquids in the pot from splashing and scalding the user.

[0063] Specifically, when the pot lid is placed upright on the mouth of the pot body 4, the lid body 1 and the latching protrusion 25 together secure the pot lid to the pot body 4. A portion of the lid body 1 extends into the pot, and the edge of the lid body 1 abuts against the inner wall of the pot body 4 to limit the depth of the pot lid's insertion into the pot body 4. The first support portion 21 is located outside the pot, and the latching protrusion 25 hooks onto the outer edge of the pot body 4 to limit the distance between the pot lid and the edge of the pot body 4.

[0064] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present application and is not intended to limit the present application. Various modifications and variations are possible for those skilled in the art. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, or improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present application shall be included within the scope of protection of the present application.
