Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of cooking utensil technology, and in particular to a detachable side handle structure for cooking utensil. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, what we commonly refer to as a side lug in daily life is a very common device on cooking utensils. This device is mainly used to help people grip and hold cooking utensils, making it easy to pick up the pot and pan for various operations. Side lugs have many advantages, among which preventing burns is particularly important.

[0003] However, existing side handles present several problems in practical use. Most side handle grips are typically a single, non-removable unit connected to the cookware's side handle, or fixed with bolts. This connection method means that even when the cookware is heated for extended periods, the grip structure can still remain hot, posing a risk of burns to the user. Furthermore, the side handle grip structure inevitably ages after prolonged use with heated cookware. For example, the outer layer may crack or peel, and the internal structure may become fragile, affecting its normal function. Additionally, the side handle grip structure can be damaged by accidental impacts or other external forces. When these problems occur, the side handle needs to be replaced. However, due to the current connection method between the side handle grip structure and the cookware's side handle, whether it's a single unit or bolted, replacing the side handle grip structure requires tools such as screwdrivers. This process is cumbersome, preventing quick disassembly and assembly, and making it inconvenient to use. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a detachable side ear grip structure to solve the technical problem of inconvenience in using existing side ear grip structures.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides a detachable side ear grip structure, which includes:

[0006] The shell body has an internal cavity with openings at both the front and rear ends. The left and right side walls of the cavity are through holes. The front end of the shell body has an elongated opening with the top wall of the elongated opening communicating with the bottom wall of the cavity.

[0028] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the technical solutions of this application, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this application, and not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0029] Please refer to the following: Figures 1 to 4 This embodiment provides a detachable side ear grip structure, including a shell body 10, a locking element 20, a shaft 30, and an elastic element. The shell body 10 has an internal accommodating cavity 11, with openings at both its front and rear ends. Through holes 14 are formed on both the left and right side walls of the accommodating cavity 11. An elongated opening 12 is formed at the front end of the shell body 10, with its top wall communicating with the bottom wall of the accommodating cavity 11. The width of the elongated opening 12 is greater than that of the accommodating cavity 11. The width of the locking element 20 is such that it is rotatably housed within the receiving cavity 11, and the rear end of the locking element 20 is provided with a through hole 21 extending in the left-right direction. The front end of the locking element 20 extends downward to form a hook 22, and the rear end of the locking element 20 is exposed from the rear end opening of the receiving cavity 11 to form a control end 23. The shaft 30 passes through the two through holes 14 and the through hole 21 to enable the locking element 20 to rotate. An elastic element is provided between the upper part of the locking element 20 and the top wall of the receiving cavity 11.

[0030] It should be noted that cooking utensils usually have side ears on both the left and right sides, and the side ears are made of stainless steel in one piece with the cooking utensils, and there are holes in the side ears.

[0031] As can be seen, in this embodiment, the detachable side ear grip structure has an internal cavity 11 in the shell body 10. The locking member 20 is installed in the cavity 11 through the shaft 30 and the elastic member. The front end of the locking member 20 extends downward to form a hook 22, and the rear end of the locking member 20 is exposed from the rear opening of the cavity 11 to form a control end 23. When installing the grip structure, simply press down on the control end 23 of the locking member 20, causing the hook 22 of the locking member 20 to swing upwards. Then, insert the side lug of the cooking utensil into the elongated hole 12. Next, release the control end 23 of the locking member 20, allowing the elastic force of the elastic element to drive the hook 22 of the locking member 20 downwards and into the hole of the side lug of the cooking utensil for locking. This allows the grip structure to be installed on the side lug of the cooking utensil. Similarly, when removing the grip structure, press down on the control end 23 of the locking member 20, causing the hook 22 of the locking member 20 to swing upwards and lift out of the cooking utensil. The grip structure can be detached from the hole in the side ear, allowing it to be removed from the cooking utensil. This design enables quick disassembly and reassembly of the grip structure, allowing for immediate installation and removal. The grip structure can be removed when the cooking utensil is heated to reduce the risk of burns from its high temperature. When the cooking utensil needs to be picked up, the grip structure can be reattached for easy gripping and lifting. It is convenient to use, and the grip structure is replaceable, simple and ingenious in design, easy and quick to operate, and has low processing difficulty and manufacturing cost, making it easy to assemble manually.

[0032] In this embodiment, refer to Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, the shell body 10 is made of a single piece of plastic. This design eliminates the need to disassemble the shell body 10 into multiple parts for easier processing and production, resulting in a simple structure, easy manual assembly, and low cost.

[0033] Specifically, the rear end of the shell body 10 is provided with a gripping hole 13 extending in the vertical direction. The rear end opening of the accommodating cavity 11 is connected to the gripping hole 13. The gripping hole 13 makes it convenient for the user to grasp the gripping structure and prevents the user from slipping out of the gripping structure. The structure design is safe and reliable. Furthermore, the connection between the accommodating cavity 11 and the gripping hole 13 facilitates the installation of the locking fastener 20.

[0034] Furthermore, the inner wall surface of the grip opening 13 is smoothly transitioned and extended, and the grip opening 13 is a strip-shaped hole extending in the left and right direction. This design conforms to ergonomic design, making it comfortable for users to grip the grip opening 13, providing a better user experience, making it easy to grip without hurting the hands, and making it safer to use.

[0035] In this embodiment, refer to Figure 2 and Figure 4As shown, the elongated opening 12 extends into the interior of the shell body 10, and the rear end of the elongated opening 12 is not connected to the grip opening 13. The elongated opening 12 is used to accommodate the side lug of the cooking utensil. The rear end of the elongated opening 12 is not connected to the grip opening 13. This arrangement prevents the side lug of the cooking utensil from extending into the grip opening 13 through the elongated opening 12, thereby avoiding the risk of burning the user's fingers when gripping the grip structure.

[0036] Furthermore, the length of the elongated opening 12 in the front-to-back direction is less than the length of the receiving cavity 11, and the height of the elongated opening 12 in the up-down direction is less than the height of the receiving cavity 11. This design makes the side handle of the cooking utensil more stable when it is inside the elongated opening 12, avoiding large gaps that could easily loosen or shake, making it safer to use.

[0037] In this embodiment, refer to Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, the rear end of the locking member 20 extends upward to form a control end 23. When installing or removing the detachable side ear grip structure, simply press the control end 23 of the locking member 20 to attach or remove the grip structure from the side ear of the cooking utensil. This allows for immediate installation and removal, making it convenient to use, reducing the risk of burns, and facilitating easy replacement and removal of the grip structure.

[0038] Specifically, the upper part of the locking member 20 has a first groove 24, and the top wall of the receiving cavity 11 has a corresponding second groove 15. The two ends of the elastic member are respectively received in the first groove 24 and the second groove 15. The elastic force of the elastic member is used to drive the hook 22 of the locking member 20 to swing downward and reset after the control end 23 of the locking member 20 is released, so that the grip structure can be firmly installed on the side ear of the cooking utensil, or removed from the side ear of the cooking utensil. The structure is ingeniously designed, the operation is quick, and it is convenient to use.

[0039] Furthermore, the first groove 24 has an annular cross-sectional shape, so that a positioning post 25 is formed in the middle of the first groove 24, and the elastic element is a compression spring 40, with one end of the compression spring 40 sleeved on the positioning post 25. This arrangement prevents the compression spring 40 from accidentally falling off or shifting, making the structure more stable and further improving the stability and reliability of the structural design.

[0040] Furthermore, the center of the front end face of the shell body 10 is recessed inward to form an arc-shaped surface, so that the arc-shaped surface of the shell body 10 can better fit the outer peripheral surface of the cooking utensil, thereby improving the compactness and applicability of the structural design. The cross-sectional shape of the combination of the receiving cavity 11 and the elongated opening 12 is approximately convex. This makes the side ears of the cooking utensil more stable when inserted into the elongated opening 12, and makes use safer.

[0041] During assembly, first, the compression spring 40 is sleeved on the positioning post 25 of the locking member 20, then the locking member 20 is inserted into the receiving cavity 11, so that the through hole 14 of the receiving cavity 11 is aligned with the through hole 21 of the locking member 20. Finally, the shaft 30 is inserted from one side of the housing body 10 into the two through holes 14 and the through hole 21. In this way, the assembly of the grip structure can be completed. The structure design is simple and the assembly is convenient.

[0042] As can be seen from the above description, the above-described embodiments of this utility model achieve the following technical effects: the shell body 10 has an internal accommodating cavity 11, the locking member 20 is installed in the accommodating cavity 11 through the shaft 30 and the elastic member, the front end of the locking member 20 extends downward to form a hook 22, and the rear end of the locking member 20 is exposed from the rear end opening of the accommodating cavity 11 to form a control end 23. When installing the grip structure, simply press down on the control end 23 of the locking member 20, causing the hook 22 of the locking member 20 to swing upwards. Then, insert the side lug of the cooking utensil into the elongated hole 12. Next, release the control end 23 of the locking member 20, allowing the elastic force of the elastic element to drive the hook 22 of the locking member 20 downwards and into the hole of the side lug of the cooking utensil for locking. This allows the grip structure to be installed on the side lug of the cooking utensil. Similarly, when removing the grip structure, press down on the control end 23 of the locking member 20, causing the hook 22 of the locking member 20 to swing upwards and lift out of the cooking utensil. The grip structure can be detached from the hole in the side ear, allowing it to be removed from the cooking utensil. This design enables quick disassembly and reassembly of the grip structure, allowing for immediate installation and removal. The grip structure can be removed when the cooking utensil is heated to reduce the risk of burns from its high temperature. When the cooking utensil needs to be picked up, the grip structure can be reattached for easy gripping and lifting. It is convenient to use, and the grip structure is replaceable, simple and ingenious in design, easy and quick to operate, and has low processing difficulty and manufacturing cost, making it easy to assemble manually.
