Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of kitchen utensils technology, and more specifically, to a steaming rack and cooking utensil. Background Technology
[0002] When using a steam fryer with a steam cooking function, the steam condenses and accumulates at the bottom of the pot. Therefore, when performing double-layer steaming, a grill rack for the baking function is placed at the bottom of the pot first, and then a steaming rack is placed on the grill rack to achieve the double-layer steaming function.
[0003] Currently, there are gaps between the grill and the pot. To prevent the support legs of the steaming rack from falling into these gaps, the steaming rack is generally much smaller than the pot. This results in a smaller upper load-bearing area for the steaming rack and a smaller space between the support legs and the grill, limiting the placement of food and preventing the achievement of maximum cooking space. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a steaming rack and cooking utensil to solve, to a certain extent, the technical problems existing in the prior art, such as the steaming rack being much smaller in size than the pot body, resulting in a smaller upper bearing area of the steaming rack and a smaller space formed by the support legs of the steaming rack and the grill.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution:
[0006] A steaming rack includes a load-bearing part, supporting legs, and a limiting part; the steaming rack has a first direction, a second direction, and a third direction that intersect each other in pairs;
[0007] Along the first direction and / or the second direction, the limiting portion is connected to both sides of the bearing portion; the supporting foot is connected to the end of the limiting portion away from the bearing portion.
[0008] Along the third direction, the projection of the bearing portion covers the projection of all the supporting feet; the supporting feet have a straight leg segment away from the bottom of the bearing portion.

[0040] Example
[0041] This embodiment provides a steaming rack and cooking utensil; please refer to... Figure 1-Figure 4 , Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the steam rack provided in this embodiment; Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of the cooking utensil provided in this embodiment. Figure 3 and Figure 4 All Figure 2 A cross-sectional view of the cooking utensil shown.
[0042] The steaming rack provided in this embodiment is used in cooking appliances, especially rice cookers, air fryers, steam ovens, steam pots, and steam fryers. See also Figure 1-Figure 4 As shown, the steam rack 100 includes a bearing portion 110, a support foot 120, and a limiting portion 130; the steam rack 100 has a first direction, a second direction, and a third direction that intersect each other; optionally, the first direction, the second direction, and the third direction are perpendicular to each other.
[0043] Along the first direction and / or the second direction, the support portion 110 is connected to both sides of the limiting portion 130; optionally, along the first direction, the support portion 110 is connected to both sides of the limiting portion 130, and along the second direction, the support portion 110 does not need to be provided with limiting portions 130 on both sides, so as to maximize the usable space of the cooking space along the second direction.
[0044] The end of the limiting part 130 away from the bearing part 110 is connected to a support foot 120.
[0045] Along a third direction, the projection of the support portion 110 covers the projection of all the support legs 120; the bottom of the support legs 120 away from the support portion 110 has a straight leg segment 121. When the steam rack 100 is placed on the grill rack 200, the straight leg segment 121 abuts against the grill rack 200.
[0046] The steaming rack 100 described in this embodiment includes a support portion 110, support legs 120, and limiting portions 130. By having the projection of the support portion 110 cover the projections of all support legs 120, the support area of the support portion 110 is maximized, which improves the utilization rate of food placed on the steaming rack 100. When the steaming rack 100 is placed in a pot or other container with a grill 200, the structural positional relationship between the support portion 110 and the limiting portions 130 effectively prevents the support legs 120 of the steaming rack 100 from falling into the gaps between the grill 200 and the pot. Inside, the support leg 120 has a straight leg section 121, which further effectively reduces the probability of the support leg 120 falling into the gap between the grill rack 200 and the pot body, as well as into the through hole of the grill rack 200 itself; when the steam rack 100 may touch the inner wall of the pot due to operation or other reasons, the limiting part 130 can effectively abut against the inner wall of the pot to ensure the stability of the bearing part 110; when the bearing area of the bearing part 110 is maximized, the space formed by the support leg 120 of the steam rack 100 and the grill rack is also increased, which can effectively increase the capacity of the cooking space.
[0047] See Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown, in the optional scheme of this embodiment, along the first direction, the distance between the limiting portions 130 on both sides of the bearing portion 110 is c, and the distance between the supporting feet 120 on both sides of the bearing portion 110 is d; then c > d. When the steaming rack 100 may touch the inner wall of the pot due to operation or other reasons, the limiting portion 130 can effectively abut against the inner wall of the pot to ensure the stability of the bearing portion 110; by c > d, the bearing area of the bearing portion 110 can also be maximized, which can effectively prevent the supporting feet 120 of the steaming rack 100 from falling into the gap between the grill 200 and the pot body.
[0048] See Figure 4 As shown, in an optional embodiment, the steam rack 100 is placed inside the cooking pot 300 which has a grill rack 200. The grill rack 200 is located at the bottom of the cooking pot 300, and the steam rack 100 is placed on top of the grill rack 200. Through the steam rack 100 and the grill rack 200, a cooking space E can be formed between the steam rack 100 and the grill rack 200, and a cooking space F is formed on the top of the steam rack 100.
[0049] Along the first direction, the size of the grill 200 is b, and the inner wall size of the cooking pot 300 is a. Then b < a, (ac) / 2 < (bc) / 2. Because b < a, a certain gap exists between the sides of the grill 200 and the cooking pot 300. To maximize the food placement area of the cooking space E while meeting the support strength requirements, along the third direction, the projection surface of the support leg 120 falls on the projection surface of the grill 200 and is as close as possible to the pot wall of the cooking pot 300.
[0050] While ensuring the steam rack 100 is easy to pick up and put down, by using (ac) / 2 < (bc) / 2, the steam rack 100 can be moved while maintaining the gap for picking up and putting down. The straight segment 121 of the support leg 120 will not fall into the gap between the grill 200 and the pot wall of the cooking pot 300, thus maximizing the upper bearing area of the steam rack 100 and ensuring that the food placement in the cooking space E in the first direction space is maximized.
[0051] See Figure 1 As shown, in an optional embodiment, the supporting part 110 includes an annular rod 111 and a plurality of connecting rods 112. Both ends of the connecting rods 112 are fixedly connected to the annular rod 111, meaning that both ends of each connecting rod 112 are fixedly connected to the annular rod 111. The connecting rods 112 extend along a first direction, and the plurality of connecting rods 112 are spaced apart along a second direction. Optionally, the plurality of connecting rods 112 are evenly spaced along the second direction.
[0052] See Figure 1 As shown, in an optional embodiment, both ends of the two connecting rods 112 are connected to limiting portions 130, meaning the steam rack 100 includes four limiting portions 130. Along the first direction, two limiting portions 130 located on the same side of the supporting portion 110 are respectively connected to both ends of the supporting legs 120, meaning the steam rack 100 includes two supporting legs 120. The two supporting legs 120, the four limiting portions 130, and the two connecting rods 112 connected to the limiting portions 130 form a support ring. The structure of the support ring provides both limiting for the limiting portions 130 and sufficient support strength and stability.
[0053] See Figure 1-Figure 4 As shown, in the optional embodiment, the shape of the annular rod 111 adapts to the inner wall of the pot on which the steaming rack 100 is placed, maximizing the load-bearing area of the steaming rack 100 and improving the utilization rate of food placed on the steaming rack 100. For example, if the inner wall of the pot is rectangular, the shape of the annular rod 111 is also rectangular.
[0054] See Figure 1 As shown, in an optional embodiment, the number of limiting portions 130 located on the same side of the support portion 110 along the first direction is one or more. For example, the number of limiting portions 130 located on the same side of the support portion 110 is two, three, or other numbers.
[0055] See Figure 1 As shown, in the optional embodiment, along the first direction, the number of support feet 120 located on the same side of the bearing portion 110 is one or more; for example, the number of support feet 120 located on the same side of the bearing portion 110 is two, three or other numbers.
[0056] In an optional embodiment, a support foot 120 is connected to one end of the limiting part 130 that is away from the bearing part 110.
[0057] In an optional embodiment, each support leg 120 includes one or more straight leg segments 121. Optionally, each support leg 120 includes two straight leg segments 121, which helps to ensure the stability of the steam rack 100 when placed.
[0058] See Figures 2-4 As shown, this embodiment also provides a cooking appliance, including a cooking pot 300 and a steaming rack 100 as described in any of the above embodiments; the shape of the supporting portion 110 of the steaming rack 100 is adapted to the shape of the inner wall of the cooking pot 300, which maximizes the supporting area of the supporting portion 110 of the steaming rack 100, thereby improving the utilization rate of food placed on the steaming rack 100. For example, the inner wall of the cooking pot 300 is rectangular, and the shape of the supporting portion 110 is also rectangular.
[0059] See Figures 2-4 As shown, in an optional embodiment, the cooking appliance further includes a grill rack 200 disposed at the bottom of the cooking pot 300, and the straight section 121 of the support leg 121 of the steam rack 100 is placed on the upper part of the grill rack 200. In use, the grill rack 200 is placed at the bottom of the cooking pot 300 via the grill rack support leg 210, creating a certain flow space between the grill rack 200 and the cooking pot 300. Through the steam rack 100 and the grill rack 200, a cooking space E can be formed between the steam rack 100 and the grill rack 200, and a cooking space F can be formed on the upper part of the steam rack 100.
[0060] In this embodiment, the cooking appliance maximizes the load-bearing area of the support portion 110 by covering the projections of all support legs 120 with the projection of the support portion 110, thus improving the utilization rate of food placed on the steaming rack 100. When the steaming rack 100 is placed in a pot or other container with a grill 200, the structural positional relationship between the support portion 110 and the limiting portion 130 effectively prevents the support legs 120 of the steaming rack 100 from falling into the gaps between the grill 200 and the pot. With a straight section 121 for the support leg, the probability of the support leg 120 falling into the gap between the grill rack 200 and the pot body, as well as into the through hole of the grill rack 200 itself, is further reduced. When the steam rack 100 may touch the inner wall of the pot due to operation or other reasons, the limiting part 130 can effectively abut against the inner wall of the pot to ensure the stability of the bearing part 110. When the bearing area of the bearing part 110 is maximized, the space formed by the support leg 120 of the steam rack 100 and the grill rack is also increased, which can effectively increase the capacity of the cooking space.
[0061] The cooking appliance provided in this embodiment includes the steamer rack 100 described above. The technical features of the steamer rack 100 disclosed above are also applicable to this cooking appliance, and the technical features of the steamer rack 100 already disclosed above will not be described again. The cooking appliance in this embodiment has the advantages of the steamer rack 100 described above, and the advantages of the steamer rack 100 disclosed above will not be described again here.
[0062] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model and is not intended to limit the utility model. Various modifications and variations can be made to this utility model by those skilled in the art. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
