Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of baking technology, and in particular to a flip-type waffle maker. Background Technology

[0002] A waffle maker is an appliance used to bake waffles. To make waffles easier for families, various small waffle makers have been designed and manufactured. Waffle makers have two baking trays, one above the other. However, due to the weight of the waffles themselves, the lower part of the waffles is heated more than the upper part, resulting in uneven baking on both sides. CN221576655U discloses a flip-type waffle maker, including a base (1) and a heating plate (2) rotatably mounted on the base (1); the base (1) includes a base plate (13), a first bracket (11) mounted on the top surface of the base plate (13), and a second bracket (12) mounted on the top surface of the base plate (13) and arranged opposite to the first bracket (11); the heating plate (2) has a first rotating shaft portion (23) and a second rotating shaft portion (24) arranged opposite to each other, and a first rotating block (231) is provided on the side wall of the first rotating shaft portion (23); the first bracket (11) is provided with a first rotating hole (111) for the first rotating shaft portion (23) to be rotatably arranged. The inner wall of the first rotating hole (111) is circumferentially provided with a limiting annular groove (113) for the first rotating block (231) to be rotatably installed; the first bracket (11) is also provided with a first notch (112) for the first rotating block (231) to slide into the limiting annular groove (113); the second bracket (12) is provided with a second rotating hole (121) for the second rotating shaft (24) to rotate; a limiting structure is also provided between the base (1) and the heating plate (2) to limit the rotation angle of the heating plate (2), so that when the heating plate (2) rotates on the base (1), the first rotating block (231) and the first notch (112) are staggered. The waffle maker with the above structure rotatably sets two baking trays on the first bracket (11) and the second bracket (12) of the base, so that the baking trays can rotate to achieve the purpose of even baking on both sides. However, the base in this structure is relatively large, and the baking tray needs to be raised to make double-sided flipping so that the upper and lower positions of the two baking trays are interchanged, which will result in the overall size of the waffle machine being too large, making it inconvenient to store and transport. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this utility model is to overcome the defects of the prior art by providing a flip-type waffle maker that is easy to store and can be flipped on both sides for even heating.

[0004] The technical solution of this utility model is as follows: A flip-type waffle maker includes a pair of baking trays, which are hinged together at the rear end and can be opened and closed relative to each other at the front end. The pair of baking trays are also mounted on a base. The base includes a placement part for supporting the pair of baking trays to be placed horizontally, and a mounting part connected to the rear end of one of the baking trays. A flipping seat is provided between the mounting part and the rear end of the corresponding baking tray. The rotation direction of the flipping seat is perpendicular to the rotation direction of the pair of baking trays, so that the pair of baking trays can be flipped on both sides after rotating upward relative to the base.

[0005] By adopting the above technical solution, when using it, first operate the front end of a pair of baking trays to lift them up. Since the flipping seat at the rear end can rotate relative to the base, the pair of baking trays can rotate upwards and move away from the base. After the pair of baking trays are opened to a suitable degree, the pair of baking trays are then rotated relative to the flipping seat to flip the pair of baking trays on both sides. Then, the flipped pair of baking trays are placed down on the base to ensure even heating.

[0006] Furthermore, when not in use, the two baking trays are placed horizontally on the base, making the waffle maker relatively small in size and easy to store and transport.

[0007] A further feature of this invention is as follows: the mounting part includes two opposing left and right seats, and a flip seat is disposed in the flip seat recess between the two seats. A pair of pivot holes are provided on the two seats for pivoting with the A-direction hinge shaft on the side wall of the flip seat, or a pair of A-direction hinge shafts are provided on the opposite side of the two seats for pivoting with the pivot holes on the flip seat. A shaft hole is provided in the middle of the flip seat for hinged with the B-direction hinge shaft at the rear end of the corresponding baking tray, or a B-direction hinge shaft is provided at the front end of the flip seat for hinged with the shaft hole at the rear end of the corresponding baking tray. The A-direction hinge shaft and the B-direction hinge shaft are perpendicular to each other.

[0008] With the above-mentioned further configuration, the pivot connection between the flipping seat and the two seats is made firm through the cooperation of a pair of A-direction hinge shafts and pivot holes, which facilitates the rotation of the flipping seat. Furthermore, the cooperation between the B-direction hinge shaft and the shaft hole facilitates the independent flipping of a pair of baking pans.

[0009] A further feature of this invention is that a pair of baking trays are hinged at the rear end by a pair of shafts, and the pair of baking trays are respectively provided with handle caps A and B on the corresponding shafts. Each pair of handle caps B has an open cover cavity. The end of the handle cap A extends into the cover cavity of the handle cap B and can move inside it. The pair of handle caps cooperate to cover the pair of shafts inside.

[0010] By adopting the above-mentioned further design, a pair of shafts are covered inside by a pair of handle caps, thereby avoiding the exposure of the shafts, providing dust protection and improving aesthetics.

[0011] A further feature of this invention is that one side of each pair of baking trays is a baking surface, and each tray has a mounting plate on its back. The handle cover A and the handle cover B are respectively located at the rear end of the corresponding mounting plate. A B-direction hinge shaft for hinged to the flip seat is provided at the rear end of the handle cover B.

[0012] With the above-mentioned further design, the mounting plate facilitates the separate processing and installation of the handle and the baking tray.

[0013] A further feature of this invention is that one baking tray has a latching piece hinged to its front end, and the other baking tray has a latching position at its front end for the latching piece to be fastened.

[0014] With the above-mentioned further settings, the front ends of the two baking trays can be locked in place by the cooperation of the clips and the locking positions to prevent accidental opening.

[0015] A further feature of this invention is that the upper surface of the placement part of the base has a baking pan recess for accommodating the bottom of the baking pan, the mounting part has a flip seat recess for accommodating the flip seat, and a handle cover recess is provided between the baking pan recess and the flip seat recess for accommodating handle cover A or handle cover B.

[0016] With the above-mentioned further design, the recessed cavity on the base facilitates the storage of baking trays and flippers, resulting in a smaller overall size and a more reasonable design layout. Attached Figure Description

[0026] like Figure 1-7As shown, this utility model discloses a flip-type waffle maker, which includes a pair of baking trays 1, each with a heating plate. The pair of baking trays 1 are hinged together at their rear ends and can be opened and closed relative to each other at their front ends. The "front end" refers to the end that faces the human body during use and is convenient for opening the pair of baking trays. The pair of baking trays 1 are also mounted on a base 2. The base 2 includes a placement part 21 for supporting the pair of baking trays to be placed horizontally, and a mounting part 22 connected to the rear end of one of the baking trays. A flipping seat 3 is provided between the mounting part 22 and the rear end of the corresponding baking tray 1. The rotation direction of the flipping seat 3 is perpendicular to the rotation direction of the pair of baking trays 1, so that the pair of baking trays 1 can be flipped on both sides after rotating upward relative to the base 2. The mounting part 22 includes two opposite left and right seats 221, a flip seat 3 is disposed in the flip seat recess 222 between the two seats, and also includes a base plate connecting the two seats. The base plate is connected to the lower part of the two seats so that the two seats 11 and the base plate 12 form the flip seat recess 222, and the flip seat recess 222 is U-shaped. A pair of pivot holes 41 are provided on the two base bodies 22 for pivoting with the A-direction hinge shaft 42 on the side wall of the flip base 3, or a pair of A-direction hinge shafts 42 are provided on opposite sides of the two base bodies 22 for pivoting with the pivot holes 41 on the flip base 3. The A-direction hinge shafts 42 are integrally provided on the flip base 3 or the base body. A shaft hole 51 is provided in the middle of the flip base 3 for hinged with the B-direction hinge shaft 52 at the rear end of the corresponding baking tray 1, or a B-direction hinge shaft 52 is provided at the front end of the flip base 3 for hinged with the shaft hole 51 at the rear end of the corresponding baking tray 1. The A-direction hinge shaft 42 and the B-direction hinge shaft 52 are perpendicular to each other. The "A-direction" refers to the left-right direction. A pair of baking trays 1 are hinged at their rear ends by a pair of shafts 6. The shafts 6 have mating posts and holes. Each baking tray 1 has a handle cap A71 and a handle cap B72 on its corresponding shaft. Each handle cap B has an open cavity 7a. The end of handle cap A71 extends into the cavity 7a of handle cap B and can move within it, thus covering the pair of shafts. The opposite sides of the baking trays 1 are baking surfaces, and each has a mounting plate 8 on its back. The mounting plate 8 is attached to the back of the baking tray by screws or clips. Handles A71 and B72 are located at the rear ends of their respective mounting plates 8. A B-direction hinge shaft 52 for hinged connection with a flip-up seat is integrally provided on the rear end of handle cap B72. One baking tray has a latching piece 13 hinged to its front end, and the other baking tray has a latching position 14 for the latching piece to engage. The latching piece 13 and the latching position 14 are engaged by a snap-fit. The buckle 14 is a buckle bar or buckle opening. The front of the pair of baking trays has handles for easy opening and closing by the user, and the buckle 14 and the buckle piece are respectively located on the pair of handles.The upper surface of the placement part 21 of the base 2 has a baking pan recess 211, which can be used to accommodate the bottom of the baking pan 1. The mounting part 22 has a flip seat recess 222, which can be used to accommodate the flip seat 3. Between the baking pan recess 211 and the flip seat recess 222, there is also a handle cover recess 231, which can be used to accommodate the handle cover A71 or the handle cover B72.

[0027] The optimal upward opening degree of the above-mentioned flipping seat is 90° for the pair of baking trays 1, and the pair of baking trays 1 can be flipped by rotating 180° independently of the flipping seat.

[0028] The working principle of this utility model:

[0029] When using, first hold the front handle of the pair of baking trays 1 and lift it up. Since the flipping seat 3 at the rear end can rotate relative to the mounting part 22 of the base 1, the pair of baking trays 1 can rotate upward about the hinge axis 42 in direction A, thereby moving away from the storage part 21 of the base. After the pair of baking trays 1 are opened upward to a suitable degree, the pair of baking trays 1 are then rotated independently relative to the flipping seat 3 about the hinge axis 42 in direction B. At this time, the pair of baking trays 1 are flipped on both sides. Then, the flipped pair of baking trays 1 are rotated down and placed on the storage part 21 of the base 1. At this time, the upper and lower positions of the two baking trays are interchanged, and they are heated evenly.

[0030] Furthermore, when not in use, the pair of baking trays 1 are placed horizontally on the storage section 21 of the base, making the overall size of the waffle maker small and easy to store and transport.

[0031] It should be noted that in the description of this utility model, all directional indicators (such as up, down, forward, backward, etc.) are only used to explain the relative positional relationship and movement of each component in a certain specific posture (as shown in the figure). If the specific posture changes, the directional indicator will also change accordingly.

[0032] In the description of this utility model, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," "linking," "fixing," and "installation" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral part; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; they can refer to the internal communication of two components or the interaction between two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model based on the specific circumstances.
