[0027] In order to make the purpose, technical scheme and advantages of the present application more clear, the technical scheme in the embodiments of the present application will be described clearly and completely in combination with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some of the embodiments of the present application, but not all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all the other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative labor fall within the scope of protection of the present application.
[0028] The terms "comprise" and "have" and any variations thereof in the specification and claims of the present application are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, for example, a method or product comprising a series of technical features does not have to be limited to those clearly listed, but can also include other technical features not clearly listed which can be included in the method or product.
[0029] The present application will be described in detail in combination with specific embodiments and drawings.
[0030] As shown in Fig. 1, the container comprises a container body 110 and a handle 120 which are configured separately, and the handle 120 is assembled with the front wall 111 of the container body by a straight insertion manner. The straight insertion manner means that the handle is inserted into the assembly position of the container body in one direction during assembly. Therefore, the assembly does not need tools or extra actions, is convenient for assembly operation, and is convenient for assembly without difficulty. Accordingly, the container can be separated from the container body instead of being assembled together when being packed independently (such as when the accessory factory supplies the whole machine factory) and when being packed together with the equipment (such as when the whole machine factory is sold), so as to reduce the volume of the package, increase the transportation quantity per unit volume, and reduce the transportation cost. Because the assembly is convenient, the user can assemble it by himself after purchase. Figures 1-6
[0031] In the illustrated structure, the front wall 111 of the container body has an annular hole 112, and the handle 120 has an annular insertion part 121 which is inserted into the annular hole 112. Such an assembly structure is unique and will not cause user misunderstanding and incorrect assembly.
[0032] In the illustrated structure, the annular hole 112 is formed between the outer peripheral wall 113 and the inner core body 114. In this way, the annular insertion part is located between the outer peripheral wall and the inner core body to form a stable assembly structure and avoid handle loosening after assembly.
[0033] In the illustrated structure, the annular hole 112 has a hooking edge 115, the annular insertion part 121 has a hook 122, and the handle 120 is provided with a shoulder part 123 adjacent to the annular insertion part. The hook 122 hooks the hooking edge 115 by its own elasticity, and the shoulder part 123 abuts against the outer end surface 116 of the annular hole. In this way, the handle and the container body are firmly combined to avoid handle loosening.
[0034] In the illustrated structure, the front wall 111 is a double-layer structure which includes an inner wall 117, an outer wall 118, and a middle space gap 119 formed between the inner wall and the outer wall. In this way, heat or cold conduction of food in the container to the outside is reduced by heat insulation through the middle space gap. For example, when the container is used to contain ice blocks made by an ice maker, cold conduction of the ice blocks in the container to the outside is reduced. When the container is used to contain roasted food in an air fryer, heat conduction of the food in the container to the outside is reduced. The double-layer structure of the front wall also increases the thickness of the front wall, which is beneficial to firmly assembling the handle to the front wall.
[0035] In the illustrated structure, the outer peripheral wall 113 and the inner core body 114 extend outward from the inner wall 117 through the middle space gap 119 and reach the surface of the outer wall 118. In this way, the depth of the annular hole can be increased to ensure the firmness of the assembly of the handle and the container body. In order to facilitate manufacturing, the outer wall is assembled to the inner wall.
[0036] In the illustrated structure, the handle 120 is a hollow structure, the annular insertion part 121 is transversely inserted into the annular hole 112, and the handle 120 includes a holding part 124 which is bent downward from the annular insertion part 121, and the lower end of the holding part 124 is provided with a water leakage hole 125. The hollow structure reduces the weight of the handle. After washing the container, water in the handle can be drained through the water leakage hole to facilitate quick drying of the container. In addition, the handle includes a body and a cover assembled to the body for manufacturing.
[0037] The container 100 of the utility model is applied to Figures 7-8 The food preparation equipment 200 shown in the figure is an ice maker and an air fryer. When packaging the food preparation equipment, for example, Figure 8The handle 120 is separated from the container body 110 instead of being assembled together, so that the device is compact in shape, thereby reducing the volume of the package and the transportation cost. Because of the convenience of assembly, the user can assemble it by himself after purchase.
[0038] When the user assembles it by himself, as shown in Figure 2 , Figure 6 only need to insert the annular insertion part 121 of the handle against the annular hole 112 until the hook 122 hooks the hook edge 115 by its elasticity and the shoulder 123 presses against the outer end surface 116 of the annular hole. The handle cannot move inwardly or outwardly, that is, the handle and the container body are reliably assembled together. No tools or additional actions are needed, and the assembly is convenient and does not exist difficulty.
